POPULAR DEMONSTRATION ON
ARRIVAL HOME
Greeted With Cheers as He Steps
From Train at Pueblo and
Addresses His Towns
people
BY Associated Press.

BY Associated Press.
PUEBLO, Colo, March 19.-Former
Governor Alva Adams was welcomed
home this afternoon by one of the
largest and most enthusiastic popular
demonstrations ever accorded to a man
in this oity's history. The streets
around the Union depot and extending
for blocks in all directions were one
mass of humanity
The train bearing the former gov
ernor was on schedule time and at
his first appearance on the platform
of the car a mighty shout went uI'
from the assembled throng. He was
escorted to a stand in front of the
Union station, where he delivered
short address. He spoke as follows:
'It is impossible for me to express
what Is in my heart on this day as "A
result of the great ovation you have
given me.
"You have made this day for me one
of the proudest in my life and one
that 1 will remember forever.
"I came home to you defeated, but
my hands are clean. l want to say
that did my duty as best could, and
I feel at this hour that L would rather
be robbed than to rob.
while here L want to pay tribute
to those who stood by me during this
contest, not as Democrats or Repub-
licans. but as citizens of this state in
Justice, right in upholding the laws,
constitution and the ballot of the peo-
pie.
N"I wish to say that robbery bears no
political brand, but bears the brand OF
pirates, and no honest citizen will up
hold this kind of robbery.
>rs"I do not feel the wrong mat has
been done me. 1t is not such a wrong
to me as it is to you, and hope to see
the hour when retribution will come
down on those men of Colorado who
are controlled by corporations and
serve these corporations as their mas
ters.
"This is not political question, but
a question of the perseverance of the
laws of this state and of duty.
'I have no regrets. I would rather
stand In the hearts of the people as l
am today than to stand under the capt.
tol dome of any state of the United
States as chief executive.
"I thank you from my heart for the
reception"
After his address the governor, ac-
companied by his wife, entered their
carriage, which had been almost filled
with flowers by their admirers, and the
carriage drawn by hundred enthusi-
astic citizens. headed by brass band.
proceeded to the governors home. The
route through the streets was con-
tinuous ovation. and when he reached
home there was a crowd of intimate
friends and neighbors to welcome him.
To this gathering he made short
speech of thanks for their welcome.

house Saturday night. When en-
ployes attempted to arouse him at 10
o'clock Sunday morning they received
no response to their calls and the door,
being forced, the body of the man was

Lost Goods Recovered

When the rooms of the Malolings
we're searched, in addition to the miss
ing china ware there was also found
other booty of no insignificant value.
Silverware from hotels all over the
coast, notably San Francisco and the
hotels at Santa Barbara, was brought
to light, as were several sets Of ex-
pensive toilet articles and razors. silks
and dress goods of fine texture, pre-
sumed to have been stolen from guests
at the Ormonde at various times during
the last year, were found concealed In
a closet, and they will be used as evil
dence against the Malolings when they
are brought to trial.
The Malolings were daily attendants
at the races at Ascot park. The cou-
pie bet heavily, it is said, but seldom
won.
Previous to the present racing season
Maloling was manager and part owner
in a local billposting company, but
with the advent of the ponies he re-
signed from the company, sold out his
holdings and secured position at
Ascot.

Whether William Shutters was the
victim of thugs, who killed him for his
money, or of suicidal mania, is the
question now puzzling the local de-
tectives. He was found dying in a
room of an East First street lodging
house early Sunday morning and died
a few minutes afterward, apparently
while suffering in great agony.
Shutters at the time of his death had
three bottles of poison in his clothing,
but all the bottles were tightly closed
and none of the poisonous fluid had
been drained from them. Paper wrap
ping was also around the bottles.
These facts seem to effectually close
all theory of suicide.
On the other hand, when Shutters
rented room in the Terre Haute house
Saturday. his face and hands bore the
marks of a struggle On his face
bruises and scratches indicated that he
had been in fight, while his hands
and wrists were also scratched. He
Immediately retired.
Lodgers Heard Means
About o'clock in the morning room
ers in the house heard groans from the
room occupied by Shutters. An officer
was called and the door was forced in
Shutters was lying on his bed, but
there were no signs of a struggle ano
the man was moaning and attempting
to speak He died few minutes later
and the body was removed to Pierce
Bros. morgue, where an autopsy will
be held today
The only point of Identification on the
man was a fly leaf of note book
with his name and the address of 43t
Ducommun street At the address
Mrs. Aldrich, daughter of the deceased
asserted that her father had been away
from home about week. This fact
did not alarm his relatives, for he had
been in the habit of leaving home for q
week or more and visiting friends ir
San Diego.
When Shutters left home he had more
than 500 on his person, and as he had
practically no expenses, the most OF
this money should have been in his
possession. Instead, only a few cop
pers were found on the body, and this
with the fact that the man had evil
IDENTIFY been assaulted and beaten, leads
the police to think that probable inter
nal injuries received in an encounter
caused the death of the old man.
Prior to renting the room at the
Terre Haute, Shutters purchased 6
number of articles of groceries at q
store near Temple and Main streets
and ordered them sent to an address
on Court street. AS he had no relatives
living on that street an investigation
will be made in the hope of finding
some clew.

MAN AND WIFE
BEHIND THE BARS
MAY BE CHARGED WITH SERIES
OF BURGLARIES
Arrest of MaIoIlngs Believed by Police
to Have Been Important Cap-
ture-Many vaIuabIes
Missing

In the arrests several nights ago of
A. M. Maloling and wife the police
believe they have made an important
capture.
At first the pair were suspected of
stealing a small set of chinaware, but
evidence gathered by the detectives
yesterday may lead to the filing OF
complaints charging them with series
of burglaries.
For nearly year past the Malolings
have occupied a suite of rooms at the
Ormonde apartment house. on South
Hill street. All the guests in the
house were people of apparent wealth
and refinement and the things which
were to be found in the various rooms
were valuable.
A short time after the Malolings
went to the Ormonde to reside the
guests began to miss property and
reported their losses to the managers of
the house. No hint of suspicion was
directed toward the Malolings, for they
were apparently wealthy and IN no
need of the articles which We're taken.
Time after time those working In the
house were questioned in regard to
the theft of valuable toilet set, or
quantity of expensive clothes, but all
efforts to locate the thieves We're OF
no avail.
Last Saturday the officers who have
been working on the case arrested Ma
loling and his wife and locked them up
on the charge of stealing a set of china
ware. which was taken from the room
of Mrs. A. A. Miller at the Ormonde
nearly a year ago. The articles we're
hand-painted and the owner Valueu
them at 5000.

Can Alfalfa be Drown In Mainea
MAINE FARMERS CAN GET A SUPPLY
OF SEED.

While it is still doubtful if alfalfa can
be successfully grown in Maine, it is
such desirable plant, both for fodder
and for hay, that many more attempts
should be made before giving it up.
During recent years alfalfa has been
successfully grown where formerly it
was thought impracticable. In the past
two or three years a number of farmers
have tried it in this state with some sue
cess. The Maine Agricultural Expert
ment Station began experimenting with
Turkestan grown seed a year ago.
Montana grown seed has been found by
the United States Department of Agri-
culture to be as hardy as Turkestan,
and the Secretary Of Agriculture has
kindly furnished the Station with a
limited amount of Montana seed. 1t ia
inoculated with the bacteria that from
the root tubercles which are essential to
the most successful growth Of this plant.
We have enough seed 80 that hundred
people can each grow aquarter of an
acre. Some of this seed has been run
through a machine to scratch" tue
outer seed coats with the thought that
this may improve its germination.
Enough seed for one-fourth acre will be
given away to Maine farmers on con.
dition that they will follow the cultural
direction furnished with the seed, and
will report their success or failure to
the station. II any one desires to grow
a half acre, enough of the "scratched" "
seed for an additional quarter of an acre
will be sent. Those desiring some OF
this seed should write the undersigned
at once, AZ the seed will be sent out in
the order that the requests are received.

What to Cut for Scions,

Editor of Maine Farmer: In seeking
information about grating l want to
use your paper, and hope that you OF
some of our skilful orchardists will
kindly advise.
have had some experience in grating
apple trees and with fair success. In
talking with a man who has done such
work find that he uses only the twigs
that grow on the end of the limbs, and
will not use suckers for sciOns. H.
says that the former will get to bearin
sooner than the scion cut from IT,
sucker sprouts and that the latter have
tendency to make larger wood grow
with less fruit. Another man use
sprouts to cut scions from entirely.
If there is any difference | would lik'
to know as intend to have about fif'
young trees grated this spring an
would like to avoid mistakes. l al
would like to know what and how mu
influence is exerted on the style
flavor of the fruit of a scion by the ST
on which it is grated.
Hiram, Me. INQUIRER
Our correspondent is right in wanti
''to avoid mistakes" in his graftins
In all orchard work too many careless
rush into mistakes only later on T.
realize the losses resulting therefrom
1t would seem there is enough known in
the management of orchard trees, though
it may never have all been written, SC
that no owner need make mistake, II
he will but take the proper steps to
learn the "know how" before he enters
upon the mistakes.
We presume the two different parties
consulted by our correspondent use the
same kind of new growth for sciOns, the
confusion coming from what is meant
by suckers and "sprouts."
The writer grew up in an orchard and
has had something to do with fruit
trees every year of his active life, and
we will stake the reputation of the
Maine Farmer that if Enquirer" will
cut his scions from the last years thrifty
and well ripened growth of bearing
limbs he will thus far make no mistake
As to the stock in which scion is sci
having an influence on the quality OF
the fruit grown on the scion, we give il
up. You will find some who "knOw" II
does, and many others who don't believe
it. The editor doesn't see why the
question has any Importance; you graft
the stock you want changed and you
get the kind you want. Mature never
