They have discovered new mic.
robe in New York and 1t is quite popu-
lar among actors and society women.
1t is called the chromophage. its spe-
cial function being to turn the hair
gray at comparatively early age. The
handsome actor who has those white
hairs on his temple that the women
admire so is full OF the chromophages.
Baldheaded men are immune from the
microbes. He only attacks the hair,
and a man without hair need not wor-
ry about the chromophage. For years
1t was thought that a process of the
blood killed the coloring matter of the
hair cells. but scalpologists in New
York combat that theory. They say
1t Is the chromophage. The microbe
does not like heat and for that reason
the woman who uses the curling tongs
is less likely to have gray hair than
the one who puts her hair up in pa
pers.

Verdict of MansIaughter.

Denver.-At $50 O'Clock Saturday
afternoon the jury in the case against
Carmelia Florino, charged with the
murder of her husband, brought in a
verdict of manslaughter. This gives
the lowest sentence possible in muir
der case, anything from term of one
to eight years, at the judgment OF the
court. The defense succeeded in i'm
pressing the jury with the fact that
the young Italian wife was la5orinS
under great fear, and was therefore en-
titled to more consideration than
would otherwise have been shown.
Fiorino, whom she shot. had another
wife in Italy. and was shown to have
killed him.

went to Newport this summer with
many letters from prominent persons.
But he has found it impossible to pre-

More Doctors,

Denver.-In his address before the
day, DR.. II. C. Wetherill, president of
the society, said:
TOO many young men in Denver,
and, for that matter, throughout the
United States, are practicing surgery
who have neither the education nor the
equipment for the work. and, in con-
sequence, the mortality in our local
hospitals is greater than it should be
There are surgeons in our city and
state who are doing operations wholly
for the fees, regardless of whether the
operations are necessary. Many ply
sicians are taking patients to sur.
geons for operations, some of which
are needed and some not, simply to
make commissions"
Continuing, DR.. Wetherill said:
There is very general sentiment
amongst the most progressive men in
our profession that there are too
many medical schools and too many
graduates annually. A large number

believe that one of the two medical
schools in this state should cease to
graduate men and women as doctors.
in my opinion, one of the schools
should simply be used as POSTCARD
uate school for practiciag doctors.
There are but three such institutions
In the United States; one in New YORK
City, another in Philadelphia, and a
third at New Orleans. Denver should
be the fourth city to have such
school. i wish to go on record as say
ng that postgraduate school in Dem
yer would render the public far greater
service than a graduating school for
DOCTORS"
Incidentally, it is announced that
there are some l,500 doctors in Colo
RADIO and the Medical league is
thoroughly organized in every city,
town ana hamlet throughout the state.
DIR. w. w. Grant, ex-president of the
Colorado State Medical Society. an
nounced that the Medical league
would be a very important factor in
city and state elections so far as sup
porting candidates for Offices that de-
clared themselves in favor of the pass
age of laws for the public good.

Silver Market Boosted by Colorado
Mqp.

The increasing price in silver prom
ises to restore Colorado to the proud
place occupied before the panic of '93.
1t is said that the rise in silver from As
cents an ounce in December, 1902, to
nearly 20 cents an ounce to-day, is the
result of the skillful marketing of the
white metal in this country and
abroad. Nearly all the silver product
of the United States and Mexico is
sold through the American Smelling
and Refining Company, and authorities
on the metal market assert that this
and Refining Company, managed by
the Guggenheims, and authorities on
the metal market assert that this
company has been conducting such
judicious campaign in the worlds
markets, which will probably send sill
Yer to rs cents an ounce before many
months.
Apparent verification of this state
ment is found in the steady upward
movement of silver since its price
touched bottom and , heavy blow was
dealt to the smelling industry, as well
as the entire West. Silver's average
price In 1901 was 5S.97 cents, in 1902 it
was 52.1G, in 1903 II was 53.57 cents.
and in 1904 1t averaged 57.32 cents.
In 1905 the average price was 6O.35
cents, and for the first eight months of
this year the average has been 6O.35
cents. The increasing price and
steadiness of the market for silver in
dicates that some powerful influence
is behind it rather than the usual fluc-
tuating demand from customary
sources.
The American Smelling and Rein
ing Company suffered severely from
the decline in silver, as the output of
the mining districts wGA necessarily
curtailed. Under the new conditions,
silver mines in such famous old camps
as Aspen, Leadville, Ouray, Creole, Sill
verton, Telluride, Rico, Georgetown
and Idaho Springs will spring into
activity again. Prospecting for silver
will be resumed, and new mines added
to the long list that in Colorado's
palmy days of silver mining made the
state famous. 1t is said that the
American Smelling and Refining Com
pany has been working for a dozen
years to so influence the worlds sill
yer market that the great volume of
business lost when the panic of '93
came. might be restored. 1t is a glor-
ious thing for Colorado that the COM
pany is meeting with so much success
in its efforts.
