A New Colorado Industry.

That Colorado is state of great
posi- and with ren arkable
future has been demonstrated OIL .
again by the discovery Of q pl-nt by
which rubber making may be made a
commercial surcess.
This plaut. which grows wild and
on land which is often fit for little or
nothing else. possesses qualities fer
the making Of rubber goods which .
quite the equal of those manu- sctured
from the South American rubber
Samples of rubber which have been
made from the roots Of this plant
show that it possesses an elasticity
and tensile strength equal to that Of
any rubber now upon the market.
The only question now seems to be to
settle upon the process. either chemi
cal or otherwise. by which the rubber
may be extracted in the cheapest and
best manner from the roots of this
plant. Experiments in this direction
have been going forward for some
months, various patents have been
obtained and it seems now only mat
ter of a few months until Colorado
will be making rubber goods of the
highest grade with an abundant mark
ct therefor. And thus this great state
will demonstrate anew that its posi-
bilities are unlimited and that its re.
sources. great as they already are,
have just begun to be developed =

A Leap Year Warning.

The ladies, who have welcomed the
coming of the leap vear with its in-
crease of privilege, may not be aware
that there is likewise an increase of
responsibility.
Althouhg the year has not been long
with us. still this fact has been brought
prominently into public notice through
the filing Of breach OF promise suit
in Philadelphia court.
: Michael Lafferty. fireman and
widower with five children. has sued
Mary Ann Mcclure, domestic and a
widow without incnnbrance, for
So, 500 damages for breach of promise.
One of the miserable extenuatipg pleas
which Mary Ann puts forth is;
Michael suggested one day that we
buy ring and have our names en-
greved inside. We went together and
ordered one. Some time later the
ring came to me, and with it a bill
for $40. l paid it and have che re-
ceipt.''
What contemptible subterfuge
for trifling with a mans affectiopsl
No human being save woman would
ever have thought of urging it in ex-
tenuation of her offense. 1t is TO be
hoped that when the case comes to
trial the court will take official cog
nizance of the fact that this is leap

precedent for the future tor the proteo-

of their daughter, Mrs. Howard

Oct. %, 1904. Mrs. Baker is a sister
to N. X. VanMatre of this city, who

sion was very happy one, though
on account of sickness some near
relatives were not present: but they
did not forget to send golden gifts,
with their best wishes. Even from
Canada came golden gifts from
Mr.. Bakers nephews, who did mot
forget their mothers brother. Chill

gave gifts of gold with wishes that the
worthy couple might enjoy many
years more of happy welded life.

on Monday night, Oct. "a, was we'll
attended. The Mineral Point Band
furnished music, and before the
hour announced for the opening, the
hall was well filled. John knight pre-
sided, and besides the speaker, twelve
or thirteen representative Republicans
occupied the platform. Before intro
ducing the speaker, Mr.. knight liken-
ed the Republican party to a house
divided against itself, and said that
as Governor LaFollette had been here
and presented his side of the contro-
versy, Mr.. Jeffris had come to present
the other side. The following report
of the meeting appeared in Wednes-
days Milwaukee Sentinel:
IN. c. Jetfris, addressed large
audience in Mineral Point on Monday
night. He reviewed the record of
Governor La Toilette in a masterful
manner. He asked his hearers not to
take his word for anything he said
but to look up the record for them
selves. His audience was composed
of representative citizens who listened
In rapt attention from the beginning
to the close of his two and half
hours speech. The applause with
which he was frequently greeted indi-
Gated that his points were well taken
and that the governors hold on the
people can be shaken by good sound
argument. MIR. Jetfris speech although
vigorous, was free from personal
abuse. The meeting was one OF
the most successful of the campaign
ard shows that if the governor expects
to win out he must look for gains
elsewhere than in Mineral Point, -

Tailoring.

We are prepared to supply your
demands from several of the very best
wooden houses in this United States at
the lowest living prices.
The most progressive men in every
walk of life, as rule, have their cloth
no made to order. All the presidents of
our country, from Washington to
Roosevelt, were men of good taste and
Judgment and believed in made-to-
order wearing apparel.
Why? Because they found such
clothing the most satisfactory and
cheapest in the end.
1t is not generally known that we
have had three tailor presidents:
Fillmore was for time a tailor's
apprentice; the next was Taylor by
name, and Johnson was practical
tailor and cutter for many years.

DIES AMONG
Traveller Taken from Train Survives
Only Short Time.

H
r. w. Randall, a stranger travelling
with his wife and her mother to Spo-
kane, was taken from Wednesdays
w%estbound North Coast Limited in a
dying condition.
Shortly before the train arrived
here a telegram was received direct
ing that an ambulance and doctor be
at the station upon its arrival, as a
mar was aboard who had been taken
suddenly sick and was apparently
in a dying condition. In compliance
Decor Rinehart and Smiths ambu-
lance were at the depot and the man
was hastily taken to st. vincent's
hospital. There he survived only a
short time, as death came within a
few hours. An autopsy was performed
and it revealed that the man died OF
natural causes, congestion of the
lungs.
The body was given in charge OF the
Billings Furniture company and pre-.
pared for shipment to Minneapolis,
the home of the deceased, whittier
1t was taken last night by a business

PLAY THAT
"A Friend Of the Family" Presented
by Good Company.

I'ShO " LIE TdtHsIy TTSoeHteO
by Good Company.
FLOR the second time the pleasing
comedy, "a Friend Of the Family
has been presented to the local play
going public. Since it's former pre-.
sentation a complste change has been
made in the personnel of the company
and new faces were seen in the cast
last night.
The present troupe suffers none
by comparison with the old, for its
members are clever and painstaMng
performers. Miss That's Magrane as
Nancy Moves proved highly acceptable
in the part of the dashing actress
whose conduct SO scandalized the
prim household of BARLEY Swift. The
latter character was ably sustained
by William Friend, an actor never
before seen here. AS the fiery and
%irrascible. Count de Brissoc, Eugene
Redding was particularly worthy OF
commentator. A difficult part to
assume, it requires the skill of a
finished character actor to prevent it
from becoming tiresome, but handled
as it was last night it becomes a
pleasure to an audience.
The support in. every detail was
adequate.
