Alleged Cabbage Snake is AL a
Hoax.

Several years ago it was discovafe4
that a little hair worm was injuElHS
the cabbage in the Mississippi val
lev. Some fellow stated that the
little slim worm was poisonous, ana
then somebody else called it snake,
and presently there were alarming
reports of great number of people
who had died from the effect OF eat
ing cabbage containing cab1age
snakes.
Some people threw their cabbase
away, not even taking chance OF
feeding it to the hogs, and others
threw out whole barrels Of kraut for
fear that q cabbage snake might
have been in the cabbage from which
the kraut was made. Now that the
government has made Thorough
Investigation of the cabbage worn,
with the result that an announce
ment is made that the people might
eat the raw and cooked, and even
inject the concentrated juice OF the
cabbage worm into their systems
hypodermically without serious re-
suits people can rest easy. Follow
ing is from the government report
During former wears, the re-
port says, ''the species first attracted
attention, but was not considered
seriously, as it was we'll known that
hair worms are not in any degree
poisonous; in fact, they are perfectly
harmless. and even to certain ex-
tent beneficial, as they destroy, by
parasitism, the pernicious coddling
moth and several species Of destruc-
tive grasshoppers or locusts.
I'm 1904, however, the subject in
creased in proportion, the bureau OF
entomology receiving frequently five
or six communications in regard to
this creature. In most cases these
were accompanied by clippings
cleaned from the daily press.
SIN only single case was the
name Of the person or persons who
had been killed by eating cabbage
supposed to be infected by this hail
worm given, and the postmaster OF
the city promptly denied any know
ledge of the facts, all efforts that
were made to locate the origin OF
the account being without success.
1t may be safely assumed that all
other reports were equally untrue OF
greatly exaggerated.

GOOD NEWS
Many Greeley Readers Have Heard it
and ProftAd TharAhY.

Good news travels fast" and
the thousands of bad back sufferers
in Greeley are glad to learn that
prompt re. ief is within their reach.
Many lame, weak and aching back
is bad no more, thanks to Doan's
Kidney Pills. Our citizens are tell.
ing the good news OF their exper-
fences with the Old Quaker remedy.
Here is an example worth reading:
j. w. Miller, stone mason, of 7l5
LaPorte avenue, Fort Collins, Colo.
says: ''If were asked by any citi-
zen of Fort Collins suffering from
kidney complaint or backache, what
to do to get relief, l would unhesi-
tatingly say, use Doan's Kidney
Pills. They cured me of attacks
which / had been unable to check.
let alone stop. Now, when man
has doctored, taken bottle after
bottle of medicine which did no
good and he finally drops in to one
that has given him absolute faith,
he naturally becomes enthusiastic
about it. The first few doses of
Doan's Kidney Pills took convinced
me of their curative powers and the
way they cleaned out the kidneys
was remarkable. When / finished
the box l went back for a second and
told the druggist that he need never
be afraid to recommend Doan's Kid
ney Pills, for they did exactly what
is claimed for them. l will recon-
mend them under all circumstances
to all sufferers from their kidneys. ~
Just such emphatic endorsement
can be had right here in Greeley.

A Wonderful Sight.

One of the strangest effects ever
seen from a railroad train is encoun-
tered close to the top Of the Contin-
entail Divide where one of the tun-
nels of the Moffat road looks of onto
the peaks of the main range of the
Rockies. At certain times of the
day a mirage may be seen by any
person standing in the tunnel.
Looking toward the south city
with domes and steeples is seen. and
a lake with a border of trees appears
near. 1t is one of the most remark
able sights ever seen in the west and
the road management has seriously
entertained the idea of changing the
time of the trains so that the pas
sengers of the regular trains can see
the wonderful sight.
The mirage was accidentally dis
covered by photographer who was
taking final exposure toward sun
down to secure the hazy effect found
near the close of the day, for col
Ored picture OF sunset on the
divide. Since the mirage was dis
covered two weeks ago, many efforts
have been made to photograph it..
but without effect. Photographers
believe they can secure negative
showing the mirage and all agree
that if the reproduction can be made
it will be the most famous photo
graph ever secured.
The excursion train from Greeley
tomorrow will go past this point
and it is more than possible that
the excursionists may see this won

mo SUCH A THING CASH PRIZE GRAlN
Chance for Colorado People to
Make Money.

Professor w. ii. Olin, agronomlst
Of the Colorado agricultural college
and experiment station, has made
arrangements to distribute 81, 800 IN
gold among the boys and girls on the
farms in this state during the next
TWO wears through one of the most
novel and interesting contests ever
inaugurated in this country. 1t Is
TO be known as The Patterson SEED
Competition. having been named
after Senator Il. NJ. Patterson, who
has agreed to provide the money for
the prizes. The competition Is 10
be open to every boy and girl IN
Colorado under Is years of age, and
continues for three years, with an
annual award of prizes and a general
reward at the end of the three years.
The contest is to see who can pro-
duce the best wheat, oats and barley
by seed selection and Improvement
during the three years trlal, anu
each contestant Is required to grow
each year an acre of grain from
which is selected 100 heads, to be
judged in competition by the experts
at the college. There will oe ten
prizes awarded annually for each
grain, fall wheat. spring wheat, oats
and barley, forty prizes in all each
year, and an additional forty prizes
for the general competition at the
end of the third year.
AS far as known no such competi-
tion was ever before held in this
country, and 1t will attract wide
spread attention, not only In Colo
RADIO, but all over the country. Pro-
fessor Olin's idea IS to encourage the
breeding of seed for use in this state
and elsewhere.

Cuban Diarrhoea.

q. S. soldiers who served in Cuba
during the Spanish war know what
this disease is, and that ordinary
remedies have little more effect than
SO much water. Cuban diarrhoea Is
almost as severe and dangerous as a
mild attack of cholera. There is
one remedy, however, that can al
ways be depended upon as will be
seen by the following certificate
from Mrs. Minnie Jacobs of Houston,
Texas: Il hereby certify that
Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera and
Diarrhoea Remedy cured my husband
Of severe attack of Cuban diarr-
hoea, which he brought home from
Cuba. We had several doctors but
they did him no good: One bottle
of this remedy cured him, as our
neighbors- will testify. l thank God
for so valuable medicine" " For

ALPS PUNCTURED
BY NEW TUNNEL
Boring Parties Complete .12-Mile
Hole Joining Italy and
Switzerland,

Condo, Switzerland, Feb. '24.-Pier-
cling of the Simplon tunnel thru the
Alps was completed at 1920 o'clock this
morning. The work was commenced in
1898.
The meeting Of the two boring parties
(Swiss and Italian) was signaled thru
out Switzerland by the ringing of
church bells and the salutes by cannon.
Many unexpected obstacles were en-
countered, the most serious being hot
springs, which threatened to wreck the
whole enterprise, and temperature
which at one tt 1ne rose to 131 degrees
Fahrenheit, making work impossible
until the engineers found means Of
cooling the atmosphere.
The work Of preparing the tunnel for
a permanent way will be pushed - as
rapidly as possible, and it is hoped to
inaugurate the tunnel about March 20.
The piercing the Simplon is regarded
as one Of the. greatest engineering
achievements of the age. Many diff
culties were encountered and overcome.
The length of the tunnel from Briga, in
Switzerland, to Iselle, on the italian
side of the mountain, is about twelve
years ago and the contract called for
May Is, 1905. The Swiss and italian
governments jointly financed the under.
at a cost Of SIS, 5000, 900. As soon as the
boring is thoroly completed and the
track laid, smaller tunnel is to be con.
structed parallel to the large one
which will be increased in size 50 as to
permit Of traffic both ways at the same
time

city board Of health, on the danger in
Cured thru the circulation Of unclean

Mr., Darlington says the New York
board Of health has reached the con-
clusion that soiled bills should be with
drawn from circulation as soon as prac-
ticable. ~.-..
From extended experiments made by
him with money, he concludes that it
will carry disease germs for one month,
while metal money will carry them for
only twenty-four hours. The germs
multiply rapidly during the period of
their life In unclean money and conse-
quently are grave menace to, public
health.
DIR. Darlington explained that expert
ments have been made with the germs
of only two diseases, consumption and
diphtheria, but it has been ascertained
that both may be communicated from
one person to another on money. II
A number of measures have been In
troduced providing for more safeguard
against disease menace thru the circula.
tion Of soiled money, and the testimony
of DR.. Darlington corroborated evidence
heretofore presented in support of re.
mittee failed to take any action yester.

end Of the session it is doubtful if the
friends of the proposed legislation can
even secure favorable report before
adjournment.
