DENVER MARKETS

Denver Union Stock Yards-The re-
only a few really choice ones offered
and medium kinds were about as dull
as ever Best beef cattle rules steady
but half-fat grass kinds are on 15 to
20 cents. Some choice corn-fed steers
sold to packers in the country at $3.50,
which is the record price for many
months here. but they were fancy.
North Park grass steers brought s4.75.
but they were also good and most of
the steers marketed went at s4.00 to
S4.25. Good steers were called fully
steady. but others on about 20 cents
for the week. Cows were plentiful.
but outside of few loads not very
choice. Some fancy North Parkers
went at s3.40. the high price. but
plenty of the fair to good grass cows
sold at s2.15 to $3.50, which was con-
sidered 15 TO 20 cents lower than a
week ago. Common cows and Gamers
are very dull and slow sale. Bulls
were weak but not much changed
veals rule generally steady with tops
for the week at $3.50. Feeder and
stocker supply was light. Demand was
good for choice heavy feeders carry
ing good flesh, as dealers have inquir-
les for good many of this class,
but the stun coming is largely of the
light stocker variety and buyers do
not want It. Prices on the good kinds
are about steady. but medium and in
ferior steers are OF fully quarter,
and In some cases even more.
The hog demand is light. as supply
was heavy last week and packers are
pretty well supplied. Tops are now
selling around $500 to s6.s5, which is
about a quarter lower than a week
ago.
The sheep demand was good and
prices generally steady. Some choice
lambs sold at $725, which is fully as
high as on the eastern markets. Best
yearling wethers brought $3.50. and a
few ewes went at $3.50. Demand is
good for everything offered.

BoYNToN BEACH MECCA
FOR SUNDAY ScHOOLS

NEW BRUNSWICK, July 9:-For
the past few years Midland Beach
has been the point of interest for the
various Sunday schools of this local
ity, but since the boat service down
the Raritan has been discontinued
officers and teachers of the schools
have been at a loss as to what to do
and where to go.
The popular demand this summer
seems to be Boynton Beach, and the
trolley the favorite mode of travel.
Up to date no less that six schools
have planned to GO to the resort on
the Raritan. The schools and the
dates arranged follow:
German Reformed school on Tues
day, July.
Highland Park Reformed on We'd
nesday, July IL.
First Reformed on Wednesday,
July II.
First Baptist, Highland Park Bap-
fist and High Street Memorial Bap-
fist on Thursday, July IL.
All the outings, with the exception
Of the First Reformed, will be an all
day affair. The First Dutch go for
afternoon and evening, and the treat
will be q Dutch" one.

GIFT TO SEMINARY
Models of the Ark Of the Covenant, Taber-
nacIe and Herod's Temple.

NEW BRUNSWICK, July 9:-
John S. Bussing, of New York, has
presented to the Theological Semin-
airy of the Dutch Reformed church In
this city models of the Ark of the
Covenant, of the Tabernacle and of
Herod's temple. The Tabernacle in
blue and purple and scarlet and sill
yer and gold, with its 3,769 separate
parts, each put together by hand, Is
so arranged that almost every in
dividual part can be easily inspected.
In the temple a hint of the labor,
skill and patience required may be
gained by noting the 400 Corinthian
columns employed in its construction,
all made by hand.
In speaking of the gifts the Rev.
DR.. John H. Gillespie, of the semin-
airy, said: "As to the temple, while
the criticism that paralyzes has been
disinclined to all such reservations.
on the ground that the architectural
details cannot be precisely deter
mined, a practical common sense
scholarship is only too glad to well
come all available help, especially as
1t is agreed that the. ground plan OF
the temple is now certified by arch
a~elogical Investigations, and, in spite
of vagaries of patriotic enthusiasm in
Josephus and others in their record
of elevations, much of the general
outline and many of the special feat
ures of the temple are undisputed
now. Half a loaf is better than nc
bread, and there is more than a hall
loaf here for the hungry mind"

OF
INSANE PATIENTS.

TRENTON, July 9:-The board of
managers of the State Hospital for
the Insane. above this city, have ex-
pressed themselves as dissatisfied
with the findings of the %coroner's
jury which exonerated Moses Kirby,
a negro inmate, who killed Harry
Conant, an attendant. The managers
believe that Kirby was not so crazy
as the jury thought, and should be
tried for the crime, when evidence of
his ability to distinguish between
right and wrong could be considered
by a trial jury under the direction Of
the court.
For the maintenance of hospital
discipline, if for no other reason, the
managers are of the opinion that the
mere fact of a man being an inmate
should not be taken as prima facie
evidence of his innocence when the
commission of a Weren't crime is in
volved. Such a precedent they re-
gard as particularly dangerous as
applied to the criminal insane ward
in which Kirby was confined. An eff
fort will be made to cur an indict-
ment despite the verdict of the COR
oner's jury.

FLAMlNC NAPhTNA
Spectacular Fire on Ihltani or
Singapore HarbOr.

SINGAPORE, July 9.-The British
oil stenmer lndrani, Captain Williams,
from New York TO ShaRRhai with 300
drums Of naphtha and $4,000 cases of
oil on board, caught fire just east of
this harbor.
The fire began by the bursting of one
OF the naphtha drums. Flaming naph-
tina flowed across the deck. and the
other drums caught fire almost imme-
diately. A pillar of flame and smoke
was seen rising upon the ship. The
Chinese crew refused to assist In the
work of throwing the burning drums
overheard and clambered into lighters.
The captain and officers of the Indrani
heaved the flaming drums into the sea
and managed to save the ship, whose
iron deck alone prevented a general
confiagration.
Floating drums of naphtha. blazing
furiously, drlfted with the tide into
Singapore harbor and crossed the man
Of-war anchorage. The shipping and
wharfs were endangered when a for
tunate set Of the tide carried the
drums to the southwark, where they
gradually burned out.
In the meanwhile the fire ON board
the Indrani had been extinguished,
and she continued on her way.
This Is the second fire which has &C,
Cured on board the IndranI since she
New York on April 10 for Chinese
ports. A dispatch, dated June Z, said
that the Indrani had been saved from
destruction by fire by the throwing
overheard of $50 drums of naphtha.

A VISION DID IT.
Former Secretary Lyman j.. Gage
Joins Universal Brotherhood.
LIS Gal. July

LUS ANGELES, Cal, July
rying out an oft rumored intention,
former Secretary of the Treasury Ly-
man j. Gage has cast his lot with
Nine. katherine Tingley's Universal
brotherhood. His life and his fortune
hereafter will be devoted to the spread
Of theosophy as taught at Point Iona.
Mr.. Gage has paid $4,000 for a plot
of ground on the apex of Point Iona,
just large enough to erect for himself
q beautiful home from which he can
get a perpetual view of the Pacific.
Strangely enough. it is now freely
stated that Mr.. Gage has done ali this
in response to the dictates of a dream
which left him no rest until he had
consulted with Nine. Tingley and
sought instructions from her as to
what the dream message signified. Mr.
Gage. whether the story of the dream
is correct or not. has had the per-
suasive voices of relatives in his ears.
for there live at Point Iona his broth
er-ln-law and sister, Colonel and Mrs.
Brainered. the latter a member OF the
Philosophical brotherhood, and some of
the former secretary's grandchildren
are pupils in Nine. Tingley's Raja
Yoga school at. the homestead.
Now that he has settled at Point
Iona, Mr.. Gage is taking a deep in
terest in the work Of Nine. Tingley
and attending all the institute lectures.
The only admission his friends Will
make is that the former cabinet mem
Der has given up all business and tax
zen to s~piritualism.
Lyman J.-Gage when interviewed
declined to answer questions concern
ing his entry into Mrs. Tingley's theos-
ophy colony, saying it was his private
affair.

HELD UP 5 CQAGhE
Lone RObber in YsEite Valley
Made All Stand.


WAMONA. Ual.. July D&-flve Yose-
mite valley s~tagecoaches were held up
near the entrance to the national park
by a lone h~lghwayman, who obtained
a considerable amount Of money aud
Jewelry. The c~onveyances were halt
ed In rapid succession at a curve In the
road near Ahwahnee at the Identical
spot where a bandit n year ago robbed
several wealthy tourists of their vafuI
ables.
The stages were travelling sufficiently
far apart to avoid each others dust,
and when the first vehicle reached the
turn in the road the highwayman,
whose features were hidden by a dust
er thrown over his head, stepped out,
pointed a gun at the driver and COM
manded him to halt. Some of the wo-
men passengers screamed, while others
began wildly Il secrete their Faluas
bles.
The highwayman directed all pas
sengers to throw out their money and
jewelry, and when the order met with
compliance he directed the driver TO
move on. The second stage arrived
within a few minutes after the FIRST
and the driver and passengers suffered
a similar experience. The process was
repeated until all five coaches had been
halted and robbed. Then the bandit
disappeared In the brush.
