TWENTY-FIVE DIVORCES
IN THREE YEARS.

The records of the clerk of the court
show hat there have ben n~inety-ive
divorce cases in Laramie county dur
ing the past three years, says the
Cheyenne Leader. In 1902 there were
seventeen divorces granted, in 1908
fifty-tive were granted, and in 1904 six
teen were granted and seven cases are
pending.
The remarkable number of divorces
granted here during 1903 was due to
the state law at hat time, which per.
mitted divorce proceedings when a
residence of six months had been es'
tablished. One years residence now
is required. The greater part of the
divorces in the three years were Sc
cured by persons from other states
who established a residences here fol
no other eason than to secure a stant

WILL OPEN EVERY
DENVER BALLOT BOX

moor that this will amount to nearly
$4,000. Experts will be allowed $25
a day. AS over 200 boxes will have
to be gone through, the experts alone
will cost over $4,000. 1t is a ON
servative figure that each box will cost
over $50 or 800 to look into. This
work of investigation is to be done at
the court house.
The legislature convenes Wednes
day, after the court order has been
signed. Should the legislature ask
for the ballot boxes before the SUI
preme court appointees get to them,
or even while they have them, the
boxes and registration books and all
other matters will have to be given to
that body. Today's order of the SUI
preme court is hat the investigation
shall in no way interfere with any
investigation the Legislature may in
stitute.

TAKES RADICAL ACTION IN
THE TREMENDOUS ELEc-
TON FRAUDS.
Will Submit All the Ballots to lnspec-
ton by Handwriting Experts and
Will Appoint Someone to Watch
Them-Missouri Republican Edi-
toriaI Association Holding Meeting
at St. Joseph Today.

Denver, Colo, Dec. 30.-The SUI,
preme court this morning ordered that
every ballot box used at the last cleo.
ton in the city and county of Denver
be opened n subjected to expert
analysis. Five boxes have already
been opened, and the order means
that the remaining 1879 boxes be ex-
amined by handwriting experts. The
order of the supreme court allows the
attorneys for both political parties to
go most thoroughly into every feature
of the election, that not only the bal,
lots themselves be examined, but that
the registration lists. the officials tai.
ly sheets, the slips II everything
used in the election be examined. The
expenses of the campaign of both par.
ties will also be gone into. Both po
litical parties will appoint two hand
writing experts and the court will
name a referee to watch them. In
fact, the court absolutely throws down
the bars for a complete and thorough
investigation into the last election.
The expenses will be paid by both
parties.
The supreme court holding that the
two big political parties should pay the
cost of the investigation into the ballot
boxes, it was figured out this after

4 KAMAAI MAS
HALE OLD ACE

NEWTON, May 29.-Hon. Gorham D.
Gilman, for more than 40 years a resi-
dent of this city, and one of the most
widely known business men of New
England, today celebrated his SOD birth
day. There was no particular observ-
ance of the event, but in the quiet of
his cozy home on Baldwin street, sur
rounded by the members of his family,
he received the congratulations of a
host of his friends and admirers.
Mr.. Gilman's age is by no means in
dicated by his looks, for he enjoys ex-
cellent health and is still active in bust
ness. He was born in HallOwel, Me,
and received his education in the
schools of his native town. After COM
pleting his studies he was employed as
a clerk in a local store. In 1910 he ship
ped on a vessel bound for Honolulu,
and upon his arrival there engaged in
business as a merchant until 1S4S, when
he returned to this country to seek his
fortune in the California gold fields.
He helped develop the resources of
Hawaii and returned there, remaining
until 1861. Four years later he remov
ed to this city and entered the whole
sale drug business in Eapston. He was
a member of the first Newton city
council, later an alderman, and in 1889
80 represented this district in the leg
isIature. The next two years he served
in the senate.
In 1898 he was appointed Hawaiian
consul in Boston, and later was raised
to the rank of consul general, which
post he filed until the islands We're an
nexed to the United States. Mr.. Gill
man is an honorary member of Charles
Ward Post 81, G. A r., founder of
the Newton Y. NJ. c. A, an Odd Eel
low and a 80 degree Mason and presi-
dent of the California Pioneers.

Japanese in New Tactics.

NEW YORK, June IA Journal
special from Moscow says: The cor
respondent at the front notes that the
Japanese have adopted a method of ad-
vance to attack a defended position
which demands the utmost accuracy of
craftsmanship in defending force. They
extend very widely, leaving broad gaps
between each file In the actual advance
the men run one behind the other so
close that the forehead touches the nape
of the neck of the man before. In this
way a considerable force gets forward
without presenting any great target to
the defending force From descriptions
given it is plain this method of advance
must have been practiced thoroughly,
since its success must depend upon per-
feet cooperation of the men in running
SO closely together.
1t seems to solve one of the difficult
ties OF the frontal attack against modern
rife-fre, four or five men getting for
ward on single file width OF front, the
very wide gaps between the files demand
ing accurate shooting in the defenders,
and the fire of the attackers at every halt
being four or FIVE fold that of the or
binary sllirmishing line still practiced IN

Japanese Gold For Russia.

NEW YORK, June IA Wall street
summary quotes from the Paris Financial
Review the following to show what
freaks finance may sometimes take:
1T has been pointed out that the gold
shipments from Japan to the United
States, caused by war expenditures, have
reached $2S,ooo,ooo, and now the United
States has used this gold to pay for
American participation in the japanese
loan foated in London. But, as it hap
pened, the London market was in po-
sition where it was forced to send the
gold to Paris, in the course of exchange.
TO avoid drafts on its own gold re-
serves, London, instead of taking for it
self the goiu about to leave the United
States. directed it to Paris.
The precise result is that, as Paris
was then establishing a Russian gold
credit on basis of its loan, Japan's gold
has been placed at the disposal of the
Russian Government
