VIOLENT STORM
Does Damage in Different Parts of
Colorado.

Denver, May 23.-At least two per-
sons were killed In the heavy storm
which prevailed In many parts of Col
orado yesterday. The electrical dis
turbances were the most severe of any
this year. The rain fell in binding tor
rents, and was accompanied by high
wind. Hailstones were larger than
usual. Owing to the damage to wires
reports are incomplete. The damage
was heaviest at Greeley.
Two deaths are reported:
Fort Collins: Mrs. John Bee, aged
fifty-eight, struck by lightning.
Longmont: Unknown Mexican, en-
ployed by Richard Clark, struck by
lightning.
A terrific rain and electric storm,
accompanied at times by hail, swept
Greeley, Eaton, Windsor and vicinitq
last night. From O'Clock until 10
O'Clock rain fell in torrents. The light
ming was the most vivid seen in Yeas
and played havoc with telephone and
telegraph wires. Several large trees
here were struck and some damage
was done to dwellings.
1t is feared that many cattle on the
range were killed by lightning. Water
from the gullies west and south OF
town poured into No. 3 ditch with the
result that it broke through its banks
and flooded streets and cellars in the
western edge of town.
There was heavy rain at and above
Colorado Springs and ManlIou and a
flood in Monument creek did some
damage.
Mrs. John Bee. living twelve miles
north of Fort Collins, was struck by
lightning yesterday while working in
her garden and instantly killed.

Labor Unions File Demurrer.

Denver, May 23.-The defendants in
the damage suit brought in the federal
court against those implicated in the
Colorado City strike, wherein the bus
mess of the United States Reduction
and Refining Company was seriously
crippled, have filed demurrers to the
complaint. The milling company sued
for damages amounting to over $780,
900 because of the damage incurred
during the strike, indicating as those
responsible the Western Federation Of
Miners, the Colorado City Mill and
Smeltermen's Union, Charles H. Meyer,
w. D. Haywood, John NJ. ONeill, L..
N. Edwards, H. T. Sanger, Charles
Lyon and Thomas Daniels.
The two labor organizations demur
on the grounds that they are voluntary
associations. without corporate exist
ence, and therefore cannot sue or be
sued. The men named claimed that
they have been engaged In no con-
spiracy against the company, that no
contracts were damaged by the strike,
that no conspiracy is shown in the
complaint, that the boycott charge is
not supported and that the complaint
does not show that they committed
any unlawful act. All the assertions,
they allege, are mere conclusions of
law.

intendent of all pipe lines of the Stand
ard Oil Company in Kansas, Missouri.
Indian Territory and Oklahoma, said
today:
I'VE are preparing to take care of
all the oil production in the Kansas
territory field. The Whiting Indiana,
pipe line will be completed in few
days, and then we can handle all the
oil produced west of the Mississippi
river"
The Standards pipe line to Whiting
from its Sugar Creek refinery, recently
established on the outskirts of Kansas
City, will be completed next Friday,
according to officials who have just
visited the local plant. The Whiting
line, the construction of which. was be-
gun last September, is to supply an
outlet for 6000,000 barrels OF oil stored
by the company at Humboldt, Caney.
Ramona and Neodesha, Kansas. At
Whiting the pipe line will connect with
the company's lines to Bayonne, New
Jersey. thus completing line that will
reach half way across the continent.
The effect of the completion of the
line to Whiting will be that the Stand
ard Oil Company will be able to handle
$4,000 barrels of oil day.

Ocean Yacht Race Gossip.

Sew York, May 21.-Paul Eve ste.
venson. the noted yachting writer
says:
"All attempt to estimate with even
approximate accuracy the chances OF
any given boat in the kaiser's cup race.
which started on Tuesday at the Sandy
Hook Lightship, would be almost as
futile as weather forecast six months
ahead. So great a variety of condi.
tions will be encountered In the 5000
miles that the eleven yachts started
upon an almost equal basis, though
naturally the most highly developed
boat from the naval architects -;ew-
point would be the favorite in calcu.
lating the odds and chances.
still, it is entirely conceivable that
the schooner Hamburg. Watson de-
signed racing boat, should be defeated
by the Fleur de Lis, much smaller
cruising schooner. Again, much inter

competitors, four types being repre-
sented, viz, yawl, schooner. bark and

Advocate Light Branch Roads.

The resolutions adopted by the In
ternational Railway Congress at Wash
ington commend light railways, or
branch roads, to the careful attention
of public authorities. The report says:
Their construction makes it possi-
Bile to encourage the progress and de-
velopment of districts which have pre-
viously remained in the background.
and it is accordingly not only the in
tent but the duty of the governments
to assist them. 1t is desirable, there
fore, not to adhere to old types and
old methods of construction. operation
and regulation, but to introduce every
facility possible, adaptable to local
needs and available resources.
at is also desirable that state gov
ernment and local authorities should
accord to light railways, either under
the form of subsidies. relaxation of re-
Quirements or other methods Of assist
ance, the support which they need for
construction and for operation. SO that
all parts of the country be adequately
served"
The congress expressed the wish
'that the present tendency of legisla-
ton to establish more liberal regula-
tions may become more general and
efforts Of the management to equip
their light traffic lines with more
economical organization, which prom
Use to give remarkable results, be con-
tinued,"

bly, of the Preshyterian church. yester-
day. voted to reunite with the Cumber-
land Presbyterian body, which with

be worked out in . report to the next
general assembly.
The committee will consider the cor
porate and legal rights of both bodies.
keeping the consolidation within the
legal limits. thereby avoiding civil
suits and injunctions. The special
committee, in its report on the ques-
tion of consolidation, canvassed the
vote by presbyteries. showing 144 yeas
and SO nays. Two presbyteries took
no action, one gave conditional assent.
and five made 10 report.
The proposed union with the Re-
formed church, the general synod, was
discussed, but no action was taken
pending action by that body, which is

Former Auditor sehwanbeck Dead.

Denver, May 23.-Louis B. Schwan-
beck, former state auditor and prob
ably the best known expert accountant
in Colorado, died yesterday morning at
st. Anthony's hospital at 1880 o'clock.

to heart trouble. He was a politician
of long experience and had wide ac-
quaintance in the state.

engaged in the hardware business with
Otto Mears. He soon entered politics

sor and later county treasurer. He
was elected auditor of state and served
from 1889 to 1891. Following the ex-
piration of this term of Office, he went

The EPW0RTH LEAGUE
CONVENTION AT DENVER IN JULY
Small Army at Work Making Prepare
tions-Larse Attendance Prom
ised From All Sections.

Denver, May 22.-Plans for the In
ternational Epworth League conyen-
ton, which meets in Denver. July 9Th
to 9Th, are maturing rapidly, and the
various chairmen have their work or
ganized to point where they could re-
ceive the visitors at any time they
might choose to come. The program
committee in Chicago has sent word
that brilliant men of national reputa-
ton will be heard at the convention.
Speaking of the work done by the local
executive committee. Secretary W. c.
Williams said yesterday:
"A small army, including over 1000
people, is now working for the EpwOrth
League convention committee, and as
the convention approaches this army
will increase in size. The convention
committee is holding meetings every
Friday evening at the Albany hotel.
and will continue to meet regularly
until the convention. Every committee
is thoroughly organized and equipped
and could handle the vast crowds that
are coming, with only two weeks NO
tice.
There has been considerable specu-
lation as to the attendance at the con-
vention and some wild prophesies
have been made, but the committee Is
| very conservative when it places the
ngures at 10000. Letters from trans
portation managers all over the United
States indicate this, and there are
many parties being formed, of which
the committee has no notice at this
time. The Union Pacific has fifty
trains over its line already scheduled.
THE secretary's Office on the second
floor of the Club building, is busy
place. We have sent out over 10000
copies of our convention prospectus,
with several thousand more yet to be
circulated. We have had literature In
abundance at every Epworth League
district convention that has been and
will be held between May 1st and July
lst. The transportation managers In
nearly every state have issued neat
and attractive convention folders with
views of Denver and Colorado, while
all Colorado railroads and the eastern
lines have also issued attractive
pamphlets. In addition to this, over
twenty Methodist papers that circu-
lated among millions of people have Is
sued special convention editions with
views and write-ups of Colorado. The
amount of advertising the city and
state have received is incalculable.
"A new committee has been added
to the general committee, that of state
clubs. c. NJ Dearborn is chairman. The
people of the city are taking hold Of
the state club proposition with en-
thusiasm. Pennsylvania leads the list
SO far with an immense membership.
Illinois and Iowa state clubs will be or
ganized Tuesday evening at Trinity
church. and the rivalry between these
two states for the largest club is very
keen.
"One of the interesting contests at
the coming convention will be that be-
tween several cities to capture the
next Epworth League gathering, two
years hence. Minneapolis and Dallas,
Texas, together with some Of the cit
les on the Atlantic coast and Birming-
ham, Alabama, are the principal cities
in the race. Birmingham has so far
made the most systematic and effect
i've bid.

SIMPLE WALL DECORATIONS.
New Material and New Ideas for the
Decoration of Homes.


The styles of home decorations have
completely changed in the last few
years, and 1t is pleasant to say that
they have changed for the better.
Time was when we hung monstrous
patterns printed on paper against our
walls, and considered them more or
less pleasantly. 1t would hardly be fair
to say that we considered them beau
tiful or artistic. But they were the
vogue and were put on. The time
has come when, with our better meth
DDS for interior decoration. better ef-
fects can be secured.
In wall coverings, whether they be
Of paint, or of kalsomine. or Of Ala
bastine-whatever the material used
to cover the wall-the thing desired is
that which has the greatest covering
power, as well as permanency and
beauty Of color. Alabastine. a wall
covering ground from Alabaster rock
which means hard white rocks
the ideal covering for wall.
The most beautiful wall decorations
in the world are those which are laid
on with the brush The mural designs
in our large public buildings, and the
frescoed designs in the large cathe-
drals and churches, have perma-
nency and an art of which wall paper
is but cheap imitation. These mural
schemes and frescoed designs can be
brought within the reach of the every
day home. They can be done with
Alabastine, which is permanent in its
coloring. 1t does not rub of, and 1t
has the soft effect Of pastelle.
A great many people defer the re-
decorating of their rooms not only
because OF the expense but because
of the discomfort Of it. With Alabas-
tine there need be no discomfort and
there can be no muss, for all that is
needed is to lay sheet or canvas on
the floor, have your man come in with
a pail, make the solution and simply
brush 1t on the wall. That Is all there
is to 1t, and the room Is perfectly
clean and thoroughly renovated.

vey yesterday and presented the
claims of the Denver, Northwestern &
Pacific Railroad to use Gore canon for
its roadway, as against the reclama-
ton service, which has selected the
canon as the site for a proposed reser-
voir to store the waters OF the Grand

dent Roosevelt accorded the visitors
an attentive hearing and promised that
the question of the use Of the canon
should receive his careful considera'
ton before final action should be
taken.

WORTH REMEMBERING.

There are three entirely different
kinds Of ingredients used in making
the three different varieties of baking
powders on the market. viz:-Q) Min
eralAcid or Alum. (2) Bone-Acid or
Phosphate. and (3) Cream of Tartar
made from grapes. 1t is important.
from the standpoint of health. to
know something about these ingredi-
ents. and which kind is used in your
baking powder.
~ Mineral-Acid, or Alum. is made
from kind Of clay. This is mixed
with diluted oil of vitriol and from
this solution product is obtained
which is alum. Alum ic cheap; costs
about two cents a pound, and baking
powder made with this Mineral-Acid
sells from 10 to Csc. pound.
(2l Bone-Acid. or Phosphate. is the
basis of phosphate baking powders
and the process is fully described in
the patents issued to large manufac-
turer Of a phosphate powder. The U.
s. Patent ONCE Report gives q full
and exact description, but the follow
ing extract is enough:
Burned bones, after being ground,
are put into freshly diluted oil of Wit
riol and with continual stirring and
in the following proportion" etc.
From this Bone-Acid phosphate bak-
ing powders are made; such powders
sell from 20 to 80 cents pound.
(3) Cream of Tartar exists in all
ripe grapes. and flows with the Juice
from the press In the manufacture Of
wine. After the wine Is drawn of the
tartar is scraped from the cask. boil
ed with water. and crystals Of Cream
of Tartar, white and very pure. sepa-
rate and are collected. 1t differs in
no respect from the form in which 1t
originally existed in the grape. Cream
Of Tartar, then, while the most expen-
sive, Is the only ingredient that
should be used in baking powder to
act upon the soda, as it's wholesome.
ness is beyond question. Cream OF
Tartar baking powders sell at about
40 to so cents a pound.
Such are the facts, and every one
careful of the health of the family
should remember this rule:-Baking
powders selling from 10 to rs cents q
pound are made of Mineral-Acids;
those selling from 20 to 80 cents OF
Bone-Acid; and those from 40 to so
cents OF Cream of Tartar made from
grapes.
