DELEGATES UNPLEDGED
Colorado Democrats Name National
Delegates.

Pueblo, June 8-The demo-
cratic convention, after short
session yesterday named the
following delegates to the ma
tional convention:
First district-Delegates at
large, Chas. S. Thomas, c. J.
Hughes, T. J. O'Donnell, Denver.
District delegates Chas. B.
Ward of Boulder; Harry E. ms
ley of Denver.
; Second district-Delegates at
large, A. P. Seeds, Cripple
Creek; Alva Adams, Pueblo;
Geo. E. West, La Plata.
District delegates-John H.
Voorhees,, Pueblo; J. H. Robe
son, Clear Creek.
Judge John l. Mullins of Den
yer was named as national
committeeman.
The delegation goes unin-
structed although the Hearst
people captured the caucus held
by the Second district delegates,
but when they tried to capture
the convention on a Hearst
resolution it was turned down
by a vote of 37o to Io8. The
Kansas City platform was en-
dorsed.
The resolutions demand en-
forcement of antitrust laws, re-
vision of tariff, admission of
several territories to the I'M
ion, opposes national banking
system, eongratulates Denver
democrats, demands punish
ment for perpetrators of Cripple
Creek outrages, condemns Gov.
Peabody and republican extrav-
agance and holds republicans
responsible for failure to enact
eight-hour law.
No fight developed in the
caucus Of the first district dele
gates on Hearst, but in the
second district caucus Hearst
followers were demonstrative
and won out by a large ma
iority. When the resolution
came ur for ratification IN the
convention it was showed I'M
der by combinad strength of
delegates from the first district
going against instruction.
Peabody's policy was severe
ly criticized by ex-Gov. c. S.
Thomas, Mayor Speer and c.
]. Hughes of Denver. The re-
cent decision of the supreme
court in the Meyer case was
touched upon, as was the trag-
edy at independence, Senator
Patterson pronouncing this as
a result OF militarism in this
state.

obtained in Il very pretty way by build

sleeves with an elongated drapery.

nearly covered by frills of lace One
of the favorite waists of the moment
is entirely made of shirrings, With the

Gowns inlet with both black and

season, and the newest models have

effective was dark blue gown with a

unsuccessfully made. The latest at
tempt was in 1889, when contract
was given to a Pittsburg firm. An
enormous caiSson was constructed, and
preparations made to sink 1t in place
during a period of calm weather, but
a sudden storm swept the work away.
Since then no further effort has been
made to build a permanent light.
Ever since the twenties of the last
centuries, however, lightship has
been maintained six or seven miles
from shore. Although held by mush-
room anchors weighing 5000 pounds.
the lightship has frequently been driv-
en- away from its moorings by the
winter gales. On one occasion in 1900
the lightship was adrift three days.
Two lightships relieve each other ut
the station, one being kept in readi-
ness should the other go adrft.
The United States having abandoned
the idea of building a lighthouse. Cap
tain Albert +. Eells Of Boston has pro-
posed a plan, which the government
experts have approved and he will
construct at his own expense light
house and fog signal on Outer Dia-
mond shoal.
Captain Eells' plan is to build at
Newport News. Va, big steel diving
bell, which will not only be hollow in
the middle, but will have hollow sides.
This big bell will be seventy feet in
diameter at the bottom and taper up to
twenty nine feet at the top. The inner
and outer sides of the bell will be
made OF steel plates, and the space be
tween them will be water tight. Enough
stone and cement will be dropped in
the lower part of this space to cause
the big bell to float upright. with its
!, top sticking out of the water 1t will
then be lowed to Outer Diamond shoal
and anchored in thirty feet of water
over the spot where the lighthouse is
to be built.
Then the hollow sides will be filed
with rock and cement until the bell
sinks to the bottom, driving its lower
edges into the sand The water will
be pumped out of the center. and the
bell will then become caisson. which
will be kept free from water by COM
pressed air. After the sand is removed
down to the lower edge of the bell ten
layers of masonry will be laid in the
