River Changes Course.

The Poudre river has cut new
channel north of the city, and has
created an island of about twenty
acres or more. On account Of the
high water running from the river
into the flats at the St. Lambert
dairy farm a channel has been made
that runs from the river toward the
city on the west side of the Union
Pacific railroad track. The stream
then crosses under the railroad at
the bridge near the Y, and from
there runs eastward to the main
channel of the river. The new
channel is steadily washing larger,
and If the high water. should con-
tinue will probably soon be the main
channel Of the POudre.

HORSE THIEF CAUGHT
Makes Long Ride But Fails to
Escape.

Sheriff Florance went to Calhan,
Colo, last week after Daniel L.
Cant who was arrested there by a
deputy sheriff, suspected of being
one of the parties that have been
stealing horses about Fort Lupton
for the past few weeks. Cant prac-
tically admitted stealing the horse
belonging to Harry Ewing of Fort
Lupton.
A great deal of horse stealing has
been going on in the vicinity of Fort
Lupton, and the farmers there have
been aroused to high pitch of in
dignation. Last Thursday evening
at a meeting of the farmers of the
section, in the school house there,
among other things discussed was
the matter of the wholesale horse
stealing that had been going on, and
what should be done to check it.
While the farmers were discussing
this question some unfeeling culprit
stole Benjamin .Twombly's horse
and buggy. horse from Daniel
Wyrick. both hitched at the school
house, and also stole a horse and
saddle out of Harry Ewing's stable.
The sheritf's office was notified Of
the thefts and circulars were sent
/ broadcast over the state with de-
scription of the horses.
At Calhan, away down east OF
Colorado Springs, a deputy sheriff
recognized the horse belonging to
Mr.. Ewing and arrested the fellow
riding it.
Cant was arraigned before Justice
willard Monday morning and bound
over to the district court for trial.
He said he had taken the horse to
sell in order to get money to so to
his old home in Tennessee.

NOW RUNNING
COLORADO STARCH COM
PANY GRINDING
New Method to be Tried in the
Only Factory of its Kind in
World Which is Located
in This City

The merry footing Of the steam
whistle last Saturday noon announced
for the first time that the Colorado
Starch company's factory, one mile
north of the city was ready for busi-
ness. The machinery had all been
tested, and early this week actual
starch making was commenced.
The company was promoted and
the big factory built by DR.. S. r.
Oppenheim, chemist, with an ex-
perience of % years in the starch
and sugar business. The factory
here is the only one of it's kind in
the world, new centrifugal process
patented by DR.. Oppenheim being
employed Centrifugal machines
are used to separate the starch from
the pulp, instead Of what looks like
a primitive method, of washing 1t
out upon oscilating screens. 1t Is
the use of the centrifugal for this
purpose that has been patented by
DR.. Oppenheim, and not the ma
chine itself, which is very similar to
the centrifugal used in the sugar
factories.
The similarity between making
starch by the Oppenheim process and
making sugar is noticeable. The
potatoes are conveyed from an out
side bin by means of an endless belt.
BY this belt they are dropped into
the washer and there thoroughly
cleaned on the outside. From here
they are dropped into the grinders,
where they are made into pulp, and
from there into mixer where the
pulp is chemically treated, to assist
in the separation of the starch.
Under the mixers are the four
centrifugals, containing the patent
process. Here by the rapidly revol-
wing cylinders, the starch, which is
the heaviest is forced through a fine
screen, while the pulp falls out OF
the bottom of the machine. The
machine is really double cylinder,
one inside the other and the inner
one only revolving. The other is
stationary, with space between the
two. Into this empty space the
starch is dropped, wet enough to run
into a cistern by its own gravity.
From there it is pumped into the
settlers, passing from one to another
until it is thoroughly purified and
the water practically all eliminated
1t is then run to the dryer, from
which it emerges ready for market
The whole process from the potato
to the box ready for market requires
only ten. hours. while in the old pro
cess from d week to ten days was
needed.
The capacity of the new plant i:
24o tons of potatoes a day, making
an output of As tons Of starch every

A Fourth of July warning.

The state board Of health of Penusyl-
vania calls attention 10 the laws re-
garding the use of pistols and the sale
and manufacture of fire crackers con
tanning dynamite chlorate of potash or
any other explosive except ordinary
gunpowder
In connection with this warning the
board invites consideration of the fig
ureS which shows the destruction of
life and limb on a Fourth OF July in
this country. as follows:
Died OF lock jaw caused by injuries 400
Died OF other injuries ......... 90
Totally blinded .............. 10
Number who lost one eye ....- 20
Arms and legs lost ........ 81
Number who lost fingers ........ ia
Number injured who recovered 3 ,9S3
Total number of casualties in the
United States ...-............ ,349
The state board of health in circulat-
ing these figures believes that they
should appeal TO the common sense OF
the public and especially 10 every par
eut who has a regard for the safety of
his children. At the same time ii ad-
vises retail dealers in fireworks who
may wish TO avoid pecuniary loss as
well as imprisonment TO furnish them
selves with sworn statement that the

LEAVES BENCH
TO MILK A cow
IOWA JUDGE ADJOURNS HIS
COURT TO A STABLE.
Finds, as an Expert Mixer, that the
Animal Had Not Been Fresh Over
Three Months, and Awards Her to
the Plaintiff-Rival for Famous Calf
Case Found.

Special to The Journal.
Sioux City, Iowa, Feb s.-':The court will
proceed to milk this and take judicial
notice of those facts which to him as an eX-
pert mixer will tend to determine whether she
has been fresh for long short time
So announced Judge John F. oliver today from
the bench after hearing witnesses dispute for
an hour concerning the identity of Jersey
cow. Both sides claimed her, but one Side con-
tended that she had been fresh only three months
while the other alleged she had not been fresh
for nearly a year.
The court adjourned to stable near by where
bis honor proceeded to milk the COW in true
farmer fashion.
The verdict of the court is that the COW
has not been fresh over three months; there
fore she goes to the plaintiff was the an
nouncement from the bench after the court had
solemnly led the procession back to the court
house
The suit promises to rival the famous Zones
county calf case Mr.. and Mrs. Charles Ninety
of Mornngside declare they will spend FOR
tune before they will give up their $40 Jersey
heifer.
Already over 500 in court costs have accrued
aud the trial has just begun In district court on
appeal from the justice. The calf pastured with
another owned by c. e. Boyer and one of the
two died. Now both principals claim the Nv
ing one
