Sugar Beets in Danger.

Denver.-A Republican special from
Fort Collins on the Goth inst. says ::
The snow storm which set in Friday
evening caused another delay in beet
harvesting, which may result in heavy
losses. 1t is estimated that there are
10000 tons of beets In the ground in
this factory district. and should the
weather turn cold and hold so for any
great length Of time the possibility of
gathering them in condition for fac.
tory use would be remote. thus involv.
ing loss of 100000. The beets are
not injured yet. and II the snow goes
or right away and the weather moder-
ates so that digging can be resumed. II
is probable that the greater portion OF
the crop may be saved. The situation
Is grave for those still having beets in
the ground.

NEWS FROM THE Mines and MILLS

In favor OF the movement. Last year
in attempt was made to get 1t through,
an1 the Transmississippi congress lent
Its aid by a resolution favOring the
project.
The argument made in Congress was
that the executive department of the
government is s.becoming top heavy and
that an additional department would be
too much. The necessity for the treat
ment OF low grade ores that Is stead
lily growing is fast making 1t apparent,
however, that some action must be
taken to make the study of mining a.
scientific part OF the government.
difference OF so cents a ton makes a
mining venture a failure or success
now, and the mining congress thinks
that the government should conduct
scientific experiments to bring ore.
II eating to fine art. 1t is argued that
were the mining industry to stop few
months the entire financial system OF,
the country and business also would he
brought to standstill. Such an i'm
portant industry. therefore, Is worthy
OF greater attention from the govern
ment.
The bill being drawn by Mr.. Call
breath will be presented by a national
representative yet to be selected. 1t
will embody the essential features OF
last years bill, together with new fea.
lures brought out at the meeting Of the
congress in Denver this year. A dele
CATION will be sent on. selected from
the brainiest men of the mining con-
gress, the last of this month to Wash
ington. to lobby for the bill and Mr..
Callbreath is already conducting
vigorous campaign by letter with every
senator and congressman in the coun-

be in this delegation.

More Potatoes Than Cars.

Greeley, Colo.-In other years lack
OF transportation has hampered the
moving OF the potato crop, but never
before has there been such a lack OF
cars for shipping potatoes as now.
During the last four weeks this district
has lost $4,000 by the failure of the
railroad company to provide cars tc
carry the crop. 400 carloads of which
could have been easily sold.
In view of the situation, Texas and
Kansas, where the demand for Greeley
potatoes is always great, customers
have stocked up with potaties from
Minnesota and Wisconsin, which will
considerably weaken the market this
winter for the Colorado crop. Over one.
one-third of the potato crop has already
been moved, and If transportation facil-
tiles had been anywhere near adequate,
nearly third more of the crop would
be sold by December 1st
AS It is. from five to ten carloads
only are daily leaving for the market.
and dealers are cancelling all orders
because of inability to secure cars and
are threatening to combine and sue the
railroad company for damages.

PERFECTED AIRSHIPS.
Sir Hiram Maxim Says We Shall Have
Them Speedily.

London.-The question of per
fected navigable flying machine is now
regarded by experts here as one of the
probabilities of the immediate future
and every inducement is being held out
to inventors to produce reliable ma
chine. A correspondent has inter.
viewed some of the leading authorities
N England and on all hands he was
practically told. "If it be not now, it will
come SOON"
Sir Hiram Maxim said: I'VE shall
not have any balloons in the future; we
shall have flying machines. The flying
machine is heavier than air, just as the
birds are. There are no balloons in ma.
ture.
$50 have no hesitation whatever in
saying that before many more years
pass we shall do away completely with
the balloon. If we are ever to fly, ii
must be with a machine heavier than
air. Many men are busily engaged in
trying to invent a machine which, like
bird, will stay in the air as long
as they wish and go wherever they de-
sire to guide it.
"The solution is coming, whichever
people may think, and really believe
myself that within year from now
there will be a great number of ma.
chimes in the air. This is certain to
happen within two years, at any rate"

Department Of Mining.

Colorado men are playing an impor-
tant part in the fight being put up this
yeai by The mining industry throughout
the country to secure the much needed
government department Of mines and
mining and a cabinet officer to head

publican.
The bill which will be presented at
the opening of Congress In December
asking for the creation OF the depart

james +. Callbreath, Jr., secretary of
the American Mining Congress. DIR.
Victor G. Anderson, president Of the
School of Mines, and Mr.. Callbreath

The Teachers Privilege.

What nobler profession can there
bo than that of passing on to younger
human beings the best there is in us?
It is rather strange contradiction
that while education is highly valued
in our country, teaching on the whole
has less honor than it deserves. 1T
is a pity that, commonly, more care Is
had, yea, and that among very wise
men, to find out rather cunning man
for their horse than a cunning man
for their children We do not pay
our teachers enough for our own good.
since a liberal salary attracts talent
not only in itself but because it is q
symbol of success. Half a million
Americans are now engaged in doing
what they can with 20,000,000 younger
minds. Surely no half million Ameri-
cans are employed in more important
work. Teach self-denial," said Wal
ter Scott (and something might be
said of other virtues) "and make it's
practice pleasurable, and you create
for the world destiny more sublime
than ever issued from the brain of
the widest dreamer" Teach anything
that is good, remarks Golfers, and
you touch the depths. The ablest and
truest men and women are required
those who know life and are not
pedants, not machines with notions of
suggestion no higher than the ferule
and the copy-book. The teacher works
with living minds and hearts and
souls. On no man or woman rests a
higher or more inspiring task.

SOUTHERN STORM
Does Great Damage in Tennessee, Ala
uama and Mississippi.

Memphis.-Eight persons are known
to have lost their lives, scores of 9TH
ers are injured, and property and
crops have suffered great damage, the
extent Of which, because of the mea-
ger reports obtainable, cannot be es-
timated at this time, as result of n
terrific wind and rain storm Sunday.
The storm, which originated on the
Gulf Saturday night, swept northwest
ward through portions of Alabama,
central and northern Mississippi and
western Tennessee, and In It's north
ward course raZed scores of substan-
tial buildings, partically demolished
hundreds of others, caused a complete
generalization of railroad traffic, and
cut Off telegraphic communication
with many points In the affected terri
tory.
Cotton in the fields blown down by
the wind was beated into the ground
and badly damaged.
Besides the loss of life and property
damage which Is known to have oc-
Cured, a number Of points directly in
the path of the storm cannot be COM
municated with. and when complete
reports have been received It is feared
the loss OF both life and property will
be greatly increased.

Endowed Theater for Masses.

Is it to be believed that out of our
rich, refined, play-loving population
there are not to be found those with
sufficient enthusiasm or self-sacrifice
to raise whatever money is necessary
to establish at least one ideal expert
mental theater, with a sixpenny gal
lery and shilling pit, all places to
be reserved, and with free perform
'ances at least once a week, where the
best works of the best dramatists of
the world could be played by a COM
pany whose primary object was not
to serve as advertisements for the
dressmaker, or be mere incidents in
the scenic splendors of the carpen-
ter's art? What is wanted is faith,
and after faith organization. Even in
this day of doubt and unbelief the
churches can find faith enough to cre-
ate organizations which raise any
amount of cash, says w. T. Stead in
World To-Day. l am loath to believe
that the theater-going public is such
goddess, reckless, worthless set of
selfish looms that it is impossible to
raise out Of their midst a fellowship
OF stalwart workers and liberal givers
who will begin the democratic regen.
,eration OF the theater.
