SURPRISING THE COLONEL.

No Reward.


The late Sir Robert Menzies used to
tell story of certain colonel who
was noted for his great seaerCsity. lie
had lost an arm during The InG-an
Mutiny, and this made him very sym
pathetic towards people who were
similarly afflicted. While walking 10
the barracks one day he met an old
one-legged man, evidently in abject
poverty.
"Ah, you have met with a great
misfortune like myself, see," re-
naked the colonel.
AYE, SIR" replied the old man,
with salute; "and like yourself col
onel, have spent great part of my
life in her Majesty's service and seen
a great deal O. hard work"
MY poor man." said the kind
hearted veteran. as he slipped a half
crown into the old mans hand, Il
fear you have received but poor re-
ward for your services"
"Ye may weel say that, colonel"
rerlied the ancient one. as he hob
blad away.
But" said the colonel, you
haven't told me where you served"
"Weel, if it comes to that" chuck
led the reprobate. Il have served my
time + the Perth Penitentiary, whaur
thcy giod me fourteen years for steal
Ing a horse!"-Answer.

LITTLE HOPE LEFT.
General PaImer's Condition Considered
Very Dangerous.

Colorado Springs. Colo.-Although
the utmost reticence Is being main
tanned by General Palmer's household
in regard to his condition, a close per
sonal friend of the sick man Monday
night admitted that death was a mat
ter of but few days, judging fr N
present indications.
The four physicians in attendance
Monday night issued the following bull
letin:
General Palmer has passed com
Portable day and shows a slight gain in
Strength; otherwise his condition re
mains practically unchanged
1t is understood that the physicians
Monday confirmed the previous dag
nosis that the spine was fractured in
The cervical region and that the spinal
cord was seriously injured. They are
unable to perform an operation. owing
to the critical condition of General Pal
mer.
1t is known, however, that his family
is prepared for the wo-ot and believe
death will ensue unless an unexpected
Change for the better should occur.

EDUCATION BILL.
British House Of Lords Tearing II
Into Pieces.

London.-The House of Lords CON
tihues to make far-reaching changes
in the education bill and in liberal
circles the opinion is expressed that
If the opposition continues in it's pres
ent spirit the bill hardly will be recog-
nized when 1t returns to the House OF
Commons. Clause two, of the bill, was
completed Wednesday, after radical
alterations, mostly by the large oppo-
stion majorities.
There is a distinct atmosphere Of
tension in the upper house
The sittings now present brilliant
and imposing spectacle and the House
of Lords is so crowded that members
of the opposition occupy consider
able portion of the government seats
ana the peeresses throng their special
galleries. A number of peers who
have not been seen in the house for
many years are now regular attend
ants.
1t apparently has been determined
that the ministry will not tamely sub.
NIT to the lords. This metamorphosis
was indicated by the president of the
Board of Trade, LloydGeorge, who
speaking at Spalding Wednesday, de
ciared that the word of "re-editing"
the bill would terminate in a way prob
ably far from agreeable to the House
of Commons. A majority of the peers
were endeavoring to establish the
principle of compulsory religion. to
winch the country would not submit.
II was absolutely intolerable, said
Nj. Lloyd-George, that the House of
Loros should override the decisions of
the people at the last election, and the
government was determined to perse-
we're with the bill. The people had
outGrown the old system OF cate
chisms and the old teachings that they
were TO be humble and lowly before
their betters. They would no longer
be content, the president of the Board
OF Trade said, in conclusion with les
sons in class humility.

SCHOOL CHILDREN's GIFT

Five Thousand Pupils in Colorado
Springs Schools Each Give One Cent
for Floral Offering to General w. J.
Palmer.
Colorado Springs-The physicians
In charge of Gen. w. ]. Palmer at II
o'clock tonight gave out the following
bulletin:
General Palmer improved in all
particulars. He has made a decided
gain in voluntary control"
Every one of the 5000 school chill
dren in Colorado Springs this after
noon donated / cent toward the pur-
chase of number of beautiful floral
offerings, which We're sent to General
Paimer's residence at Glen Eyrie this
evening. No movement of the kind
was ever known in the history of the
city wherein each pupil in all the pub
lie schools participated.
The suggestion came from Superin
tendent John Dietrich, and met with
a spontaneous response on the part OF
the pupils. The flowers consisted of
chrysanthemums. roses and carna-
tions. The gift is especially appropri-
ate in view of the fact that General
Palmer's wife, now deceased, was the
first school teacher in this city. She
established school in 1871, shortly
after the townsite of Colorado Springs
was laid out by General Palmer, and
long before the organization of city
school system.
The following note accompanied the
flowers:
please accept this floral Offering
from the boys and girls of the schools
of Colorado Springs. Permit them all
to convey to you, in some degree, the
esteem in which you are held in the
hearts and minds of the children of
QUE public schools. 1t is with deep re-
gret that we have learned of the sad
accident which has befallen you. We
wish for your speedy recovery, and
trust that, in the wisdom of a wise
Father, the life of one who has al.
ways been so unassumingly thought
ful of the interests of the individual,
as well as of the community at large.
may be spared for many years to
come"

say regarding reformed spelling. Eff
forts were being put forth, he said to

that President Roosevelt had done
more to accomplish the reform than
all the philologists together had done
in twenty years.

ber of Cheyennes. These were turned

YOUNG LADY TEACHER LOST IN
THE LATE STORM.
ON PLAINS NEAR PARKER
Miss Laura Scott Of Denver, Teaching
In Douglas County, Loses Her Life
Going From Her School to Parker.

Miss Laura Scott Of Denver, Teaching
In Douglas County, Loses Her Life
Doing From Her School to Parker.
Denver.-Miss Laura Scott, aged 19,
Of this city, teacher of Plainfield dis
trict, No. 20, four miles from Parker,
Colorado, was found dead Sunday
evening on the Charles Everett ranch.
She evidently became lost on the prai-
rle and after hopeless efforts to reach
home, fallen and frozen to death.
MISS Scott was stopping at the home
OF Fred Parsons, near her school, and
FRIDAY evening, after dismissing her
pupils, she went home, but was there
only short time when she left the
house, stating that she was going to
Parker Instead Of going there, how
ever, she visited the home of James
Bolthof where she stayed a short
time, starting home about dusk.
When leaving Bolthof's they di-
rected her as to short route home, as
she was a stranger in this district. 1t
is supposed that she started to take
the short cut, but became bewildered,
wandered off in the wrong direction
ard finally lost her way completely.
Her track showed that she had wan
dered around for about fifteen miles.
From her appearance when found it is
judged that she fell unconscious in the
snow after terrible struggle among
the drifts. with the realization that a
terrible fate was assured. Her clothes
were torn and her face badly scratched
and bruised, it Is supposed, by her ef-
forts to push her way through the deep
underground and from falling in the
snow.
MI Parsons came to Parker from
his ranch Saturday morning and i'm
mediately made inquiries to ascertain
if the young woman had been there.
He was informed that she had not, and
finally learned that she had visited the
Bolthof ranch, but had left for home.
Mr.. Parsons Immediately suspected
that the young woman had become
lost in the snow and organized a
searching party party.
After a hunt of over twenty-four
hours they discovered the body lying
In three-foot snowbank in remote
corner of the Everett ranch. They
turned the body over to Coroner Hack
EFT of Castle Rock. who held an In
quest. the jury deciding that death
was due to exposure and exhaustion.
No suspicion of foul play exists.
The parents of the dead girl, resid'
ing at 1889 South Logan avenue, in
this city, were notified of the tragic
end of their daughter and the remains
were brought here Monday night for
burial.
James H. Scott, father Of the dead
girl, arrived in Castle Rock Monday
afternoon and accompanied the body
back to Denver. He is broken-hearted
over the tragic affair.
