An Interesting coincidence in con-

oface of cougressman-at-large Conejos

lives, gave Alva fifteen hundred ma.

jorities against all the other Demo
cratic candidates.
Last November in Denver. where
Brother Frank Adams operates the po-
lice machine Alva got about four
thousand more votes on the face of the
returns than any other Democratic
candidate"
What brother Billee Adams did for
Alva two years ago in Conejos broth er
Frank did for him in Denver last No

FOUR MONTHS IN JAIL
Scanlon Not a Criminal, Rat Has a
 Weakness For Drink, Said Iudse.

In the superior court yesterday af- ternoOn Timothy J. Scanlon was found guilty of assault with intent to kill and was sentenced to four months in jail. It was the circumstances of the affair however and the strong defense put up by his counsel that saved Scanlon. The court in disposing of the case remarked that if Scanlon had not been under the influence of drink at the time he would not have assault ed Brennan or anyone else. He se- verely reprimanded Scanlon for his conduct and brought to his attention that the main thing in life for him ought to be to uphold his previous good reputation and maintain his little family, which was present in court. It was evident, the judge said, that Scanlon does not belong to the crimi- nal class and that his main difficulty is his weakness for drink. He advised him to overcome that tendency after serving his sentence
 While the jury were out in the Scanlon case, Charles Bassett, one of the alleged murderers of old Thomas c. Lockwood, was put on to plea. There are three counts against Bassett charging him with conspiracy, robbery and murder in the first degree. The information is quite lengthy document and it was evident that Bassett, who is still weak from the effects of an operation ill Auburn state prison, N. r., was tired of standing. He pleaded not guilty and to the surprise of many said his age was 19 Attorney James B. Rus sell was accordingly appointed his guardian ad litum. When asked if he desired counsel he said he was an English subject and a resident of Canada and he would prefer to see the English consul before he would say anything more. Two or three times he was asked if he desired coun- sel and each time he replied that he would prefer to see the British repre- sentative before he said another word. Finally Attorney Russell was appoint ed his counsel with the understanding that he would retire from the appoint ment if Bassett's relatives selected other counsel. A date has not been set for the trial but it probably will not take place for some weeks.

cASHED THE CHECK
Drawn for Twenty Hive Cents But
 Han Cot $25.

A joke that may not be such a joke after all is the talk of some of the young men about town. It concerns City Clerk-eleet Sandland and one whose name may be called Manner for the sake of convenience. MT Manner had an idea he did great work for the elected party on election day and some one convinced him that he was agent for MT Sandland. Yesterday a letter was received for him at certain store and the clerks who were in on the joke dld not hesitate to open the envelope. It contained a check bearing MT Sand lands name for what they supposed was 25 cents. In due time MT Manner showed up at the store and he was given the check. Of course it was sup posed that he would have the check cashed at the store and it was ar ranged that he should receive 9 cents in pennies. To eyerybody's surprise, however, Manner took it to a bank. He understood it to stand for $25 so that he was not bit surprised when he was paid that amount
 . Back to the store he went and took out all the boys and ''blew himself" to their great surprise. Then he in vested in store of stockings, ties and winter furnishings, paid few dollars that he owed and had about $S left to- ward evening. By that time it seemed the check had come to the attention of the teller in the bank and out flew that official to find MT Manner. He had no trouble in accomplishing this. for everybody knows where to find Mir Manner. The teller was glad to get even SS from him. It was half a loaf anyway. He is now trying to find who 1t was issued the check on his bank to make him pay the balance ex- pended by MT Manner. It is said that if Mir Sandland had an account with the bank the joke would never have come out. The Joke, however, is on the one who sent the check, for he in- tended 1t for 25 cents only. ,
