Attorney General Miller has
passed favorably upon the consti-
tutionality of the widely talked cf
G. G. S. merger measure and now
it is up to the governor to either
attach his signature making the
bill law or kill it by his power of
veto. What action he will take
is absolutely unknown but indica-
tions are that he will sign it. We
believe the bill, should it become
a law, will be a great benefit to
the state, and the majority of the
citizens of Colorado are of the
same opinion. Very few are op-
posing the measure outside of
Bill Evans, who is bitter enemy
of the Colorado & Southern rail-
way, and Bill Stapleton, editor of
the Denver Republican, who is
under the dictation of Evans.
The Republican is strenuous in
its fight against the bill, and were
we not familiar with the provis-
ions of the measure, the mere fact
that that disreputable publication
was opposed to its becominga law,
would lead us to believe its adop-
ton would be beneficial to the
whole people and we would be
strongly in favor of the governor
attaching his signature.

British Navy Divers.

Three schools for the instruction of
divers are maintained by the British
navy. The diving service is composed
entirely Of volunteers. No man is pass
ed as a candidate who has short neck,
IL full blooded or shows a fiorid COM
plexion. Those suffering from COM
plants affecting the head or heart or
having a sluggish circulation are also
excluded. Six weeks Of training at
diving school fits a man for open sea
work. 1t is essential to descend and
ascend very slowly owing TO the eff
fects Of the great change of pressure.
A man Of strong constitution is not
advised to ascend faster than two feet
a second when the depth does not ex-
coed eighty feet. The men in training
are first taken to slight depths, which
are gradually increased to a maximum
Of 120 feet. The normal limit is $50
feet, to which practiced divers often go.

Turkish Altar of Roses.

Turkish altar of roses is mainly pro-
duced in Bulgaria and is carried on in
the fertile valleys on the southern
slopes of the Balkans. The rose har-
vest in Bulgaria begins about the third
week in May and lasts about month.
The second great seat of rose farming
in Europe is the space between the
Maritime Alps and the Mediterranean,
in the extreme southeast of France.
This is, in fact, the great scent farming
and perfumery making center of Eu-
rope, the town of Grasse being the en-
porium of the district. OF course at
tar of roses is also produced in India,
Persia and .Asiatic Turkey under the
climatic conditions desired, but the
great bulk of the supply is furnished.by
the European regions .already noted.
The roses employed for altar making in
Europe are: In Bulgaria the red damask
rose and in the south of France the
Provence rose, hybrid or variety Of
the hundred leaf rose, to which also be-
longs the we'll known cabbage rose.

said an experienced New York dentist,
I'VE should have to go out of business

tiles that required filing. On the other
hand, we are repeatedly called upon to
make artificial teeth for very young

He wanted That Wine.

General Sir e. Hamley is cited las
the authority for good anecdote about
Bismarck. Hamley was sitting close
to the chancellor at luncheon, with the
old Emperor William not far off.
Bismarck, talking rather loudly, de-
scribed the old monarch as being gen.
erous, but very forgetful. Hamley got
nervous, as he thought the emperor
would hear. .'For instance" continued
Bismarck, 81 pleased him the other
day, and he asked me what he could
do for me- l said, Give me dozen OF
that Tokay you have in your cellars,
and he said he. would. But" added
Bismarck, raising his voice still higher,
"he hasn't done it." Here Hamley
hastily broke in, II beg your pardon,

ANIMALS AND SCENT.
One of the Miracles of Nature That
Is Past understanding.

One of the Miracles of Nature That
Is Past Understanding.
One Of the most interesting of all the
miracles of nature is scent as applied
to animals. The.subject is neither I'M
derstood nor explainable. Whether it
Is sixth sense or a marvellous deyel-
opment of one Of the five is uncertain.
Quite likely, however, it has very little
relation to that sense which we know
as smell.
To the sportsman the quality of scent
Is extremely important When the air
Is dry and the ground hard there is lit
tie scent. When the wind is north or
east scent is either largely wanting or
does not readily diffuse itself. A
southerly wind without rain and a
westerly wind, if not too rough, are
most favorable to it. OF course if the
wind is strong it blows the scent away,
and severe storms entirely destroy it.
1t is very difficult for dog to follow
a scent just after shower, and it is
dispersed by the hot sun as well as
by the storm. 1t is fact also that
scent comes as much from an animals
body as from its feet.
There is no time that dog will fol-
low q scent better than when the track
is made upon white frost. If the frost
is thick over the track, of course the
scent is buried, but as soon as it be-
gins to disappear the dog follows it
easily. During thaws or melting snow
scent seems to dissipate rapidly. Sled
paths, swamp bottoms, dry wood and
ice are all bad for holding or preserv-
ing scent, and so are sandy places and
Of course plowed fields when the feet
sink in so deep that the earth is likely
to fall over them.
Another peculiar thing about scent
Is that it generally ceases as soon as
the animal is dead. This, at any rate,
Is the CLAIM, and, for that matter, al
most all knowledge concerning scent is
merely made by observation and is
rather unscientific, or at least liable to
be erroneous. 1t is claimed also that
nature often protects animals in the
breeding season, so that they give out
Dut ALtlC cSClL l. VI hluotAdsio4, eAAS
coon gives no scent from spring until
about the middle Of August, when the
young begin to take care of themselves,
and their scent increases with their
age and size. Both the rabbit and the
coon have very little scent, but the fox,
deer, moose and elk give out a strong
scent and can be followed by dog
long after the track is fresh. Birds
give but little scent, and it has been
claimed that quail close their feathers
closely when the dog is near and thus
destroy their scent altogether.
Whether scent as we understand it
as applied to animals is the same quail
ity that human beings possess in smell
ing a flower is uncertain. Just how
dog, for illustration, can distinguish
the track of his master from that of
some one else or from a score of others
perhaps hours after the track has been
made is simply one of those marvellous
miracles that are as incomprehensible
as eternity or limitless space.-Amateur
