FORECAST OF STORMS TO CROSS
THE CONTINENT.
THE BREAKING OF WINTER
\ Challenge to Chief Moore and Those
Who Have Cried Fraud Will Meet
Their Opportunity to Show
Up or to Shut Up.

Copyrighted 1905 by W. /. Foster)
Washington, D. c., March 4.-Last
bulletin gave frecasts of storm wave to
cross the continent 5 to 9, warm wave
d to 8. cool wave 7 OIL. The next dis
turbance will reach the Pacific coast
about 9, cross west of the Rockies by
the close of 10, great central valleys II
to IL, astern states IA. Warm wave
will cross west of the Rocks about 9,
great central valleys II, eastern states
II. Cool wave will cross west of the
Rockies about IL, great central valleys
II, eastern states TO-
The interesting feature of this dis
turbance will be the breaking of WIN
ters backbone AS the warm wave
comes down from the Canadian north
west the last stubborn cold wave of a
tenacious and severe winter will stub
bornly retreat into the Atlantic ocean,
seeming to say: Il go, but I will re-
turn The ground hog will have had
his way and the goosebone prophet will
cfuckle over his seeming victory.
About March 10 low temperatures
will prevail from Lake Erie to New Or
leans, little earlier west of that dia-
gonal line, a little alter east of it. and
during the next seevn Or eight days
great rise in temperature will occur, with
little rain. Storms will be of more than
usual force but nothing serious is ex-
pected April and May will be danger
Gus storm months, and | advise all to
so plan their affairs that no unnecessary
risks will be taken. During those
months | expect tornadoes and other
severe storms on land. and severe gales
on the waters of the United States and
Canada, and hurricanes in the East In
dies. Chief Moore thinks | commit an
objectionable sin in giving out such
warnings, but I believe he is the sinner
in trying to prevent such warnings. De-
tails will be given in future bulletins.

o.s Wears eres s.ys . farm

The Denver Post in a recent issue
rehearsed an agricultural tale which
reads as follows:
A man named Shriver last spring
leased from man named Phillips of
La Junta twenty acres of land three
and half miles west of Las Animas-
From six acres he took this season
81. 400 in cantaioupes and from ten
acres he took 81 900 in sugar beets.
Said Mr.. Phillips to Mr. Shriyer:
Give me what you took from the
land this year and the land is yours. :"
Said Mr. Shriver to Mr.. Phillips:
Your on" A man a half mile
from Shriver cleaned up 5000 from
eighty acres of sugar beets."

laps Will Raise eests.

A couple of Japs came to town the
other day and were taken by Will
Cooper out to his farm land on the
north side. One of them leased
eighty acres which he will put in
condition this fall and next spring
plant it all to sugar beets. He said
the land was all right and made
arrangements with Mr.. Cooper to
reserve a thousand acres for his
friend who is growing beets in Cali
fornia and becoming rich. The
little brown mans eyes bulged out
like billiard balls when he was shown
fields that were turning out 30 and
40 tons of beets to the acre, and said
it was wonderful. The Japs are
good beet raisers but refuse to buy
land at any price and do their farm
ing on leased lands and are satisfied
by returns of twenty tons to the
acre.-Bent County Democrat.

"hoity voity."

The original scenery and light eff
fects used in the New York produc-
ton of ''Hoity Toity" at Weber and
Fields own Broadway theatre are
to be used in the production to be
seen at the La Junta Theatre. Thurs
day. November I'd. and an entirely
new and altogether gorgeous set Of
costumes have been provided. The
chorus is said to be uncommonly
good and real feast of beauty; the
music covers a wide range of tune
full melody; the comedy is refresh
ingly bright and original; the seem
cry, dances and light effects
dazzling. All in all. it will be a
delightful treat. not only from a
musical and comedy point Of view,
but as real beauty show.

Escaped erisooer IN Dursnes Vile.

Charles Tatum, the only prisoner
who succeeded in getting away at
the time of the Jail break in this city
a little over a year ago, has at last
showed up and is in the lime light of
publicity in Pueblo. He was up be-
fore Judge Voorhees, one day this
week charged with having stolen
$50 from Mrs. Eliza Coats in a
Bessemer wine room.
Tatum is only II years old. and
according to the evidence of some of
the other persons connected with
the little drama. is paying the penal
ty for married woman's infatua-
ton for him.
1t was claimed by the defense that
Mrs. Coats gave him the $66. which
was her husbands pay for the
month. and afterwards declined to
appear against him. when the irate
husband signified his intention Of
having the officers go after Tatum;
il is also said that Mrs. Coats warned
him. and told the young man he had
better use the remainder of the
money to evade the officers.

Kansas City Sheep 0srkst-

Sheep from the range are getting
scarce, and prices are soaring. Some
Colorado lambs. II pounds, sold at
S7.65 last Wednesday, highest price
since early last spring, and Colorado
yearlings, 100 pounds. at So. Weth-
ers sell up to $40, and ewes si.s5.
Stock and feeding stnffs sells at 81
to S4.75, lambs s5.75 to s6.25. 1t
would seem as though another era
of extremely high prices was at
hand, and that even though feeders
have put their stock in the feed lot
at prices considered at the danger
point. they are going to reap anoth-
er rich harvest.
F. NJ Harsin, of Rocky Ford,
Colo. was in last Wednesday with
five carloads of sheep.

"cstsis Queen" In Jsii.

By strange combination of cir
cumstances, Emma Casteel, known
as the Cattle queen of Otero coun-
ty." is a guest at the county bastile
of Pueblo county for twenty-four
hours, and in addition, will be COM
PEELED to pay fine of $25 and the
costs of the suit brought against her
on the charge of enclosing govern
ment land.
District Attorney Cranston in
formed the court that the state land
board was responsible for the in
formation that led to the offense.
1t was impossible to let the woman
of without paying a penalty Of some
sort. so she was given the very
lightest sentence that could be given
her-imprisonment in the county
Jail for one day and payment of a
fine of S25 and costs.
Mrs. Casteel, who owns a big
cattle ranch ten miles north of La
Junta, did not seem greatly con-
cerned at the thought of incarcera-
ton in Jail for day, and will begin
her sentance some time this after
noon.-Pueblo Star-Journal.

New Tint Table se.s Month.

The Santa Fe winter time table,
it has been announced, will go into
effect Sunday. November 18th. The
California limited will become a
daily train on that date and the rum
ming time between Chicago and Los
Angeles will be reduced an hour and
a half. The train will leave Chicago
at 9 o'clock each evening instead of
at 7:3O. but the time of arrival at
Los Angeles will not be changed. 1t
will pass through La Junta about an
hour later than at present. 1t has
been decided to restore to their last
winters schedule trains Nos. 8 and
10. During the summer these trains
have been running to Denver, but
under the new time card No. 8 will
run through to Albuquerque, where
it will overtake and be combined
with No. Z. continuing from that
point to California as one train. 1t
is thought that all the business in
Colorado can be handled by Nos. 5
and 6, and this is the reason for TIE
change in the schedule of No. Q.
There will probably be no change of
any consequence in the running time
of any of the other trains.
