A new DEPARTMENT
Agricultural College Enlarges
Scope of Work

The State Agricultural college
will teach the future farmers OF
Colorado to build good roads, de.
partment in farm mechanics having
been organized and Professor II. NJ.
Bainer, formerly of the Ames (lowa)
Agricultural college, having been
appointed to the new position. A
class has been organized and the
work started. The new course is a
broad one, covering the building of
good roads, rural architecture, farm
machine design, blacksmithing, car
pentry. mechanical irrigation, drain
age of land, and, in fact, all farm
appliances and operations are en-
braced in the new course.
A thorough training in machinery
is to be given in this course. the STU
dents being required to take down,
set up and adjust everything from a
threshing outfit to gasoline engine.
The proper adjustment of machinery
is considered to be of great value,
and If the farmers were we'll in-
formed along this line it would en-
able them to keep up their equip
ment with but half their present
outlay.
Rural architecture is rapidly be-
coming one of the most important
questions to the farmers, as we'll
planned and comfortable homes and
convenient barns will do more than
any other one thing to keep the
young men and women on the farms
instead Of flocking to the great
cities.
The possibility of alcohol becom-
ing great factor in furnishing
power ON the farms is not being
overlooked by Professor Bainer and
his boys. If the manufacture and
use of aclohol prove as promising as
now appears. there is no question
that in few years farming methods
will be revolutioniZed. and the train
ing given here will be of inestimable
value to the young men, enabling
them to 60 out as farm engineering
experts.

WORK wEAKENs TIE KIDNEYS
Doan's Kidney Pills Have Done Great
Service for People Who Work
in Greeley

Most Greeley people work every
day In some strained, unnatural posi-
tion-bending constantly over desk
riding on jolting wagons or cars
doing laborious housework: lifting,
reaching or pulling, or trying the
back In hundred and one other
ways. All these strains tend to
wear, weaken and injure the kidneys
until they fall behind in their work
of tiltering the poisons from the
blood. Doan's Kidney Pills cure
sick kidneys, put new strength in
bad backs. Greeley cures prove it.
0. e. Paulson, stone mason Of 1903
Sixth avenue, says: Like the ma
jority of men of my occupation
have had several acute attacks of
kidney complaint during the past
few years, never severe enough to lay
me off work, but sufficient to make
me feel very miserable. After being
in a stopped position for some little
time it was quite diHcult to
straighten up. The last attack
had was some time during this last
summer, when l went to FL. Rey-
nolds & Co.. s drug store, corner of
Eighth street and Ninth avenue,
and asked for something that would
relieve an aching back. Mr.. Rey-
nolds advised me to try Doan's Kid
ney Pills. / did SO and it did not
require more than half the box to
make my backache disappear. My
wife took the balance of the box and
they helped her also.''

 because the Mexican refused to yield e5 per cent of his winnings. the bat He did not take place. This. at least. . the reason given by Herrera for the aasco. Aurelio being positive in his vtatemeuts to a few friends in this eity just before he left for Milwaukee To close arrangements to fight Char ley Neary there August l1.
 aJust before it came time to weigh In for Nelson I went to McCarey and asked him about the scales" the Nextcan said.

HERO FRANK DONAHUE.
Waterbury Boy Received Salvos of
 the Detroit Fans.

Detroit, Aug 1.-Red Donahue won his own game from New York yesterday by a three-bagger which enabled his team to break the tie, ' the final score being 2 to 1.
 The Highlanders were unable to hit the sorrel-topped twirler when 1t counted, the only exception being furnished by Delehanty, who was in- jected into the game in the eighth inning and succeeded in batting in the only run of the day scored by his team. Donahue was the hero of the game from start to finish, and re- ceiyed an ovation when, in the ninth, after three men in succession had made first in safety and none were out, he pulled out of the hole with out allowing the scoring of a single run.
 Newton was also in fine form, and for a long time it looked as If the run which Detroit secured in the sec ond might be the only one of the game. Singles by Mcintyre and Lind- say, with Payne's sacrifice in the sandwich. brought in this one, and | 1t was the only piece of consecutive hitting done by either side until New York got busy in the eighth.
 With two out Kleinow hit the ball against the left field fence for a three-bagger. Griffith promptly der ricked Newton and substituted Dele- hanty at the bat. The latter made good with fine single past Schaefer, and the score was tied.
 Grifnth went out to pitch the rest of the game himself, and Donahue was the first to face him. To the sur prise of the crowd and Donahue him. self he laced a triple past Conroy in left and scored shortly after on Schaefer's rather short fly to Hoff- man. Donahue was tired when he came to pitch the ninth and Conroy and Keeler singled fin order. Cough lin's throw of Elberfeld's grounder was wide and the bases were full. Chase, however. fouled to Schmidt and Laporte struck out. Schmidt cor. rallied Williams skyscraper and it was all on.

meant trouble. The fight was de- clared off. McCarey did not have money enough to pay the guarantee and could have saved himself quite little by being in with my end of it." Herrera has said nothing of this matter because of the suits that are pending against him. All of his avail able assets are attached in two suits of $1,OO0 each, half of the $2,000 be- ing his weight forfeit and the other his forfeit for appearance in the ring These suits will be tried shortly. but Herrera said he offered to bet Mc- Carey $100 that he would not ap- pear to contest them.

 Mclean. who umpired yesterday was a crack pitcher last year, twirl ing in the Bush league and in the Eastern circuit.
 Harry o'Hagan was an unpopular visitor to Holyoke Tuesday and his poor showing at the bat was a source of great delight to the crowd. It is bad enough for some playerl to lose their heads. but when some nut fin the grand stand begins tS curse he should be thrown out.

 Trouble.

Chicago, Aug 2.-Abe Attell, who Is appearing in boxing exhibitions at the Trocadero theater with Maurice Rauch, came near having hot dstic session with Aurelio Herrera in Ike Blooms Heidelberg" on Madison street, with select crowd of sport ing men as spectators. The better judgment of number of friends of Herrera and Attell alone prevented what might have beensa lively en- counter.
 Herrera entered the place while Attell twas talking to Bloom and a party of fight fans. Herrera approach ed the featherweight champion and accused him of telling Tom McCarey of Los Angeles that he (Herrera) was overweight for his fight with Nelson.
 "I did," said Attell, when Mo Carey asked me and after you had confessed to me you were"
 The answer of Herrera was couch ed in the choicest of billingsgate, whereupon Attell advanced menac- lngly and seized him by the arm.
 Come out of this place with me you greasy lobster!" shouted Abe, land I'll give you what you escaped with Nelson. I have trimmed you twice already, and I am going to make 1t three straight"
 Herrera was reluctant to go, and Attell started dragging him to the sidewalk. At this juncture Bloom and other cooler heads interfered and Herrera was taken to one end of the room until Attell cooled off.

Second Game.

In the second game both teams used the same pitchers that finished out the first contest. Johnny Hughes however caught in place of Thackara. Hogarty was the whole thing in this game for he struck out nine of the Norwich players and always held them safe with the exception of one inning. Stevens did good twirling too for Norwich and while the visi- tors received more hits than did Wa terbury the strikeouts offset all that. The visitors went to pieces in the first inning and with three errors and two hits the Prodigals scored twice Norwich scored in the sixth on a single by Cote and double by Golden. Our other run came in the sixth on an error by Golden, a sacri- fee and hit by Walsh In the ninth was where the excitement reached fever heat. After Soffel had struck out, Perkins and Accorsini singled. Bridges went out to first, but Plank, who batted for Stevens, was present. ed free pass by Umpire Mclean and the bases were filled with two out Harry Ball. the best batter on the Norwich team, was expected to do something, but Hogarty let him. self out and three pretty ones were sent over the plate which Ball failed to see, but the umpire did and the game was over.
