BOND BILL IS KILLED
BY ADJOURNMENT OF THE HOUSE
Measure to Pay Military Expenses
sheIved by Representatives.
Scenea of Widest Confusion.

Denver, April 2.-The house closed
its exciting day yesterday with
rather dramatic climax. At 1925 last
night Mr.. Cannon rushed down the
center aisle toward the speakers desk.
declaring: "The Senate is killing
House bills as fast as it can" There
was an astonished pause and then
motion to adjourn was made, which
Mr.. Fetzer seconded and moved that
the House adjourn to 10 o'clock Mon
onded and when the speaker put it TO
vive voce vote there was response
of ayes that shook the roof. MI
Frewen and Mr.. Griffith. in last eff
of military expenses, called for roll
call. Amidst intense excitement mem
hers shouting at each other across tne
chamber, and the opponents to III
jeering its friends. the motion u ad-
journ was carried by the vote OF 80
to 25.
The action of the House kills the
bond bill No. 211, and all other Sen
reading.
The House was at the time entirely
free from any outside influence, as Mi.
McGuire's motion for a secret session
had cleared the floor of all save mem
bers, employees and the press represen-
tatiyes. 1t was partly the outcome OF
open work done on the floor of the
House in favor of the military bill,
members having declared that i'm
proper influences were being used to
secure votes for the measure. The mo-
ton came at an unexpected moment.
when the friends of the bill claimed
they had secured almost enough votes
to make it safe. Some of the work
had been tried among the Democratic
members, many of whom said they
would have voted for the bonds II
friends of that measure had allowed
the business of the committee OF the
whole to proceed towards clearing up
the calendar on other Senate bills.
Their objection was, they said. to put
ting the bond bill ahead of others.
Rampant disorder ruled in the
House all of yesterday, speakers be
ing unable to make themselves heard.
members caucusSing, consulting the
lobby or shouting across the room.
The majority of the committee,
consisting of nine of the eleven mem
bers, favored cutting the total of the
bonds. in the war bond bill from $500
900 to 100000 and the appointment of
a special auditing committee to repre-
sent the state to carefully scan each
bill and cut out all improper or eA-
orbitant items. Mr.. Griffith handed in
minority report favorins the bill as
it stood. Mr.. Fetzer presented third
report, the only variation from that OF
the majority being that he favored the
reduction of the total amount OF the
bonds to 100000.

She took only few boxes, but they cured
her troubles, and caused her to develop

DEADLY SNOWSLIDE.
Two Men Killed at Bankers National
Mine, Ouray.

Denver, April "a dispatch from
Ouray last night says: a snowslide
came down at the Bankers National
mine Saturday night, while the night
shift was at work and carried away the
bunk house and boarding house.
George Rabb and John Orth were the
only men killed. Six others who were
caught by the slide escaped, several
after having been buried under ten
feet of snow. Some of them were at
the point of death when rescued.
There has never been n slide at that
point, so far as any one remembered.
In the bunk house eight men were rest
ing after the days work, when the
slide started. Most of them were play
ing cards. There was no thought of
impending danger.
Without a moments warning there
came an awful booming, bursting,
crash, darkness and the bitter cold of
the awful mass of snow. a. B. Higgin-
botham, by prank of fate, rode upon
the crest of the snowy mass and es-
capped, although he was stunned.
He waded through the snow for a
mile to the Camp Bird mine and gave
the alarm. Nearly fifty men responded
and fought their way through the
storm, arriving in time to save the
lives of at least two men, Alex Nc.
Neill and Walter McEwen, who were
imprisoned beneath ten of twelve feet
of snow almost four hours.
The compressor house escaped the
slide, though it was moved from its
foundation. In it were w. B. Orman
and the night engineer, T. F. McKenna
nch nf eli ho
machinery stopped and the lights went
out. Both realized that the buildings
had been carried away and after send
ing Tom Carley to bring the night
shift out of the tunnel, they started to
rescue their comrades. They met Bob
Roberts crawling over the snow,
bruised and stunned. They heard the
groans of others, Barney Burns, who
was bleeding from wounds in the head
and whose side was severely bruised.
and Jim Mullins, who was buried be-
meath the iron roof. Both were res
cued.
Then the Camp Bird men arrived
and with feverish haste began search
ing. Tamping rods twenty-feet long
wre prodded through the snow and
George Rabb was located, but too late.
Just before they got him out he spoke
and said to Orman:
Bill, pull the timbers off of me-"
Life was practically extinct when he
was taken out.
Alex McNeill was rescued from be-
meath twelve feet of snow, where he
had regained consciousness, and with
his hands had followed out breath
ing space. He managed to get air
enough TO live during the four hours he
Nas imprisoned.
James Orth was taken out dead.
Walter McEwen, the cook, who was
in the cook house, which was crushed
and buried beneath twelve feet of
snow, was rescued uphurt after having
been buried beside his cook stove with
the camp cat for four hours.

CHILDREN AFFECTED.
BY Mothers Food and Drink.

Many babies have been launched into
life with constitutions weakened by
disease taken in with their mothers
milk. Mothers cannot be too care ii
as to the food they use while nursing
Kansas City mother is case in
point:
81 was a great coffee drinker from
a child. and thought | could not eat a
meal without it. But found at last 1t
was doing me harm. For years l had
been troubled with dizziness, spots be-
fore my eyes and pain in my heart,
to which was added two years ago,
chronic sour stomach. The baby was
born 7 months ago, and almost from
the beginning, it, too, suffered from
sour stomach. She was taking it
from me!
"In my distress | consulted friend
of more experience than mine. and
she told me to quit coffee, that coffee
did not make good milk, I have since
ascertained that it really dries up the
milk
$50, quit coffee, and tried tea and
at last cocoa. But they did not agree
with me. Then l turned to Postum
Coffee with the happiest results. 1t
proved to be the very thing I needed
1t not only agreed perfectly with baby
and myself but it increased the flow
of my milk. My husband then quit
coffee and used Postum, quickly got
well of the dyspepsia with which he
had been troubled. | no longer suffer
from the dizziness, blind spells, pain
in my heart or sour stomach. Post
um has cured them.
Now we all drink Postum from my
husband to my seven months old
baby. 1t has proved to be the best
hot drink we have ever used. We
would not give up Postum for the best
coffee VIC ever drank. Name given
by Postum Co. Battle Creek, Mich.
