Death of George H. Graham.

Denver, June George H. Graham,
one of the best known politicians In
Denver, former sheriff Of the county.
and one who figured prominently In all
of the Colorado campaigns that have
gone into history. died at his residence
1909 Eleventh street, at $3.50 o'clock
last night, from neuralgia Of the heart.
His death was sudden. He went to his
office in the morning but returned
home In an hour or 80 not feeling well.
Soon after o'clock at night he fell
into a stupor from which he never re-
covered. When his physician arrived
he was breathing his last.
Mr.. Graham was born in Niagara.
Canada, in 1S49. and was therefore fif-
ty.six years Of age. His parents moved
across from this country shortly be-
fore his birth, and he always claimed
to be an American out-and-out. His
youth was spent in Rochester. New
York. Before he had attained his ma
jority he reached Illinois ON his way
west and lived several years In that
state. He came to Colorado In 1869,

Re,t A.bestos MIne..

Commercial asbestos is a fre-resist-
ing substance composed OF silky hbers
up to six inches in length. which can
be used for packing or woven into fab
RIGS. It's value corresponds approx.
mately with the length OF the fiber. Il
Is prepared from a mineral Of vari-
able color, which is usually found de-
posted In thin sheets in the seams Of
granite rock. The fber is normal to
the sheets and its length is thus linz
tied by the thickness of the seam. The
most important deposits so far dis
covered in America are one OF flesh
colored mineral In Arizona and a green
deposit at Black lake. in the province
OF Quebec, Canada. In order &c se-
cure the asbestos mineral Il is nee
essary to quarry the granite in which
It occurs and afterward separate the
materials by crushing.

In Spite Of Warnings, Nothing Really

Jerry had been taught that II was
a sin to lie, so OF course he never
meant to lie Whenever he did stretch
the truth, which occasionally hap
pened in spite Of his good intentions,
he did so merely through the exuber-
ance Of his lively imagination. One
day, just as Jerry perpetrated one Of
his whoppers. the recently mended
heel of his shoe came on His moth

you tell a falsehood something ter

quite likely. If It isn't that, II
will be something equally bad"
For several days after that Jerry
talked but little, and what few state
ments he did make we're carefully
weighed beforehand. One day upon
his return from school he became less
cautious and entertained the family
with the account OF an incident that
had enlivened his trip home. The
story seemed quite plausible, and no
body would have even thought Of
doubling his veracity had not Jerry
after looking at the heel OF his shoe
explained triumphantly:

time! Better look at yours, mamma.

MORAL QUALITIES OF INSECTS.

Bees and Ants Display Strong Sense
Of Duty and Respect for Law.
There are insects. mostly parasitic,

Thus patriotism is obviously a vir-

to escape from danger. but apply
themselves Immediately to rescue the
lives and property Of the community
as a whole. Respect for law and or

some communities of ants. which in

Bees have an extraordinary sense OF
duty Huber noted relays of them

Meet With Accidents.
That a tired man is much more apt
to meet with an accident than one in
full possession Of his strength. phys
lcal and mental. is strikngly shown
by an analysis Of some statistics Of
accidents in various trades and occu.
pations. made recently In France.
This shows that in all cases acci-
dents occur infreauently in the early
hours of the working day. They ia.
crease in number as the day ad-
ysnces, drop suddenly just after the
midday re,t, and then increase again
AS the afternoon passes. until. at the
end OF the whole day. they are much
more numerous than az the end Of the
morning. It can scarcely be doubted
that these facts mean that liability
to accident Tn the course of ones
daily work is directly related to the
degree OF fatigue. Hence It Is inn
portant for employers and employed
alike to see that the workers do not
become over-tired r. Montreal Herald
