A scare Of generous dimensions took
possession of three of the men who are
working on the taking of borings for
the waterworks system. During the
early part of the evening yesterday
shortly after they had gone to work
the men heard unearthly screeches in
the woods near them and the boys all
agree that they saw green eyes staring
at them from several different points
in the woods The scramble that those
men made for the top of the derrick
which is used for hosting the drilling
apparatus made a claim opening in
Nebraska look like Sunday school

They kept it up on the top of the der
rick and insist that the whole tower
hasn't a single soft spot on it, at least
not near the top. According 10 their
statements the animals are supposed
to have been wildcats. Only two OF
the men were ready to return to work
this ev~ - but they are taking with

THE SULTAN OF SULU.

"The Sultan of Sulu" which comes
to the Park opera house, Thursday
Dec. 27. deals in whimsical and sa-
tirical vein with certain imaginary
events supposed to happen in the Phil
ippines during the American invas-
ion. Mirth and melody is the keynote
to this comic, opera success and from
all accounts the entertainment is
witty, dainty, provocative of laugh
ter and especially diverting to all
classes.
George Ade. the famous author of
Fables in Slang" is said to have sur
prised his admirers by the Gilbertain
tiavor of the lines in the Sultan of
Sulu' and the humor redolent of the
soil with which this book. abounds.
The Sultan's retinue of wives sold
iers, courtiers, dancing girls and his
magnificent palace with its oriental
splendor and tropical gardens, have
had no small share in the phenomin-
al success that has hitherto attended
this production. The cast has been
most carefully selected and is one of
exceptional excellence and the large
chorus noted for the beauty of its
feminine members.
Among the numbers which have
found favor are "The Smiling ISL
and of Sulu." Engaged in a Sort of
n Way" Since I first met you" Re
morse" and "Manistee.'
The company numbers sixty peo-
pie prominent among whom are AL
bert Sykes, Frank McCarty, Octavia
Eroska, Stella MARITIME. Benrnie Harte
Helen Rockefeller, Harriet Sheldon.
Florence Rother and Robert Parllin.

THE MCCARTNEY CASE.

We have no maudlin sentiment to
waste on John McGarvey, who kill
ed Edward Innes in this city. We feel
much for his family and for the mo
ther who believed, like most mothers
do, that her boy could do no wrong.
The attack made on Edward In
mes, was a brutal, cold-blOoded at
tack, pTemeditated and the result was
the murder of fine young man, the
only son of a devoted father and mo-
ther. Innes had no chance to resist
as the statement states elsewhere in
this paper, he did. He was innocent
ly watching a game of cards being
played between prisoners and this
man McGarvey, one whom Jailer In
mes had trusted, deliberately Drained
him, to secure the freedom of which
he was not deserving.
Nor is the other statement true
that he was practically railroaded to
the punishment that the jury meted
out to him. He had fair trial, though
quick one, and every opportunity
was given to him to prove his inno-
cence. He has no claims upon the
mercy of this people because of any
miscarriage of justice.
What Governor Buchtel may do in
the matter, is matter that does not
concern us.
1t does concern us though to make
it plain that no injustice was done Nc
Garvey at his trial, that he was given
fair trial and that whatever the
feeling may be that is held by his rel
atiyes back east, we can assert that
he deserves punishment of some kind.
McGarvey must have had inherited
tendencies TO wickedness. He was
pervert from all his actions in this
town. He did not care to do what
was right, if he could do something
that was wrong. The crime for which
he was serving a term in prison, was
one which stamps him as moral per-
vert.
We believe in giving every man a
chance in this world and ifthe courts
decide that he has not had fair trial
then let him be tried over again, but
we believe, as does almost every citi-
zen in this city that, no other verdict
could result than the one originally
made, If the same testimony is Civ
en-, as was given at his trial in this
county.

ACCIDENT ON MIDLAND
Train No. 1O5 Has Narraw Escape
from Being Dashed Down an
Awful Precipice Last
Night-Rock On
The Track.

What might have proven one of the
worst and most terrible accidents that
has occurred on the Colorado Midland
lines was narrowly averted last night
and the passengers on the Colorado
Midland passenger train No. 105 suf-
fered not a few cold shivers when
they learned what had happened.
The train was speeding westward
toward Grand junction at a fair rate
of speed. The big engine was sturdi-
ly pulling its cars over the heights
and around the precipices that sur
round the town of Buena Vista. The
train was passing along a portion OF
the track skirted on one side by a
deep ravine covered with heavy rocks
the wall of which incline almost
touched the side of the cars, while on
the other side of the track was a pre-
clpice with a sheer drop of several
hundred feet. Suddenly the engi-
neer saw big rock roll down the in .
cline and fall on the track directly in
front of the big engine. He attempt
ed to stop the train and threw on the
air brakes but before he could do so
the engine had struck the rock, the
big boulder was somewhat fiat and in
some manner the engine succeeded in
running over 1t, but when the rock
struck the trucks of the first baggage
car 1t simply jerked the trucks from
the rails and in a moments time the
baggage car was holding a position
directly across the track, with one end
extending out toward the precipice
and the other turned toward the
mountain side. The train was brought
to a sudden stand still.
1t was indeed a fortunate and re-
markable circumstance that threw
the baggage car in the position it did
for had it rolled over it would doubt
less would have tumbled down the
precipice and perhaps pulled one or
more of the passenger cars with it. 1t
was truly narrow escape and those
passengers who took in the situa-
tion breathed quickly for a moment
1t took about two hours to get the
baggage car righted and everything
in readiness for the train to move on
1t reached Grand Junction several
hours late.
1t is supposed that the big rock was
Jared loose in some manner by the
moving train.

FOR POLITICAL ENDS.

Only one sentiment actuates the
other sheet in the discussion of the
Mountain Water question. 1t is that
it sees possibility of electing a Re
publican council in the coming city
election.
That sheet feels satisfied that the
present council will not build the
water works system. but it will lend
It's aid to elect a city council which
will build the system.
We will just say in passing that the
present city council will build the
system. or at least will begin its con-
struction, if let alone. We also as
sert that there never will be elected
a council which will give more time
to this great problem than the pres
ent council has done.
The members of the special water
committee have neglected their own
business to perform the work delegat.
ed to them. That paper states further
that 1t does not believe there is any
crookedness on the part of the coun-
cil," yet for six months past or ever
since the council began to formulate
plans looking to the construction OF
the proposed system, that paper has
lent its columns to every knocker in
the country and has aided and abetted
in the work itself, in charging crook
edness and graft against the members
of the council as a whole and in part
1t now has decided that there has
been no crooked work, as every hon
est minded citizen knows that there
has not been. 1t will perhaps take
this back in the next issue and charge
everything against the council and its
officers.
But there is no need to explain to
the public the attitude of the other
paper, it is well known and the pub
lis will remember its actions in the
future.
It matters not how greatly chagrin-
ed the mass of the men and women OF
the city are over the stumbling blocks
placed in the way of council, in its eff
fort to give this city mountain water.
just so some sort of political advant-
age may be gained, in defeating the
purpose of this council. the other sheet
will be satisfied
However. we shall wait and see.

Eye Comfort

In the higher. or civilized stage of
life, the eye is required to do more
than in the lower spheres of life.
There is more strain upon vision
because it As the most important
means of knowledge. Those follow
ing pursuits of civilization have their
eyes fixed in their scrutiny of near
objects a greater part of the time
This means a continuous contraction
of the ciliary muscle, which means
a continual supply of nerve force to
the eyes. Now if these muscles and
nerve centres are not in perfect har-
mony you will experience headache,
sleeplessness. stomach trouble and
feel as though you can not contain
yourself-nervousne More than
one third of the gray matter of the
brain is utilized to perform the func-
tions of the eyes. My specially is to
see that the demand of this gray
matter does not exceed the supply. If
