published here today, among them
statement that she and her husband
had created President Roosevelt"
Mrs. Storer today said that while she
had seen q newspaper woman last
night, and had said some Of the things
credited to her, the report, as pub
hshe6, gave an entirely different com
plexion to. everything said, and that I'M
due prominence had been given to GER
tain incidents related during the inter

an interview had been given, she said
that so incorrect and garbled report
had been published that it did not give
her views or statements, and she did
not want it to be considered as coming
from her. Beyond this she refused 10
discuss the matter.

Following is the report of I. W Nc
Connel, engineer Of the Uncompahgre pro-
ject in Colorado:
THE Uncompahgre project proposes the
irrigation of 10000 acres of land in Mont
rose and Delta counties, Colorado The
lands to be irrigated lie along the I'm
compahgre river, which is q tributary
of the Gunnison. The water for the IL
rigation is to be diverted from the Gun

THE project involves the construction
of the Gunnison tunnel, six miles in
length, and about 100 miles in large ca
nails, together with the improvement of
many miles of old canals and bitches.
ION Dec. l 1880 feet of the GunnisOri

LIBRARY MAY Be
BUILT IN PARK
TEMPORARY INJUNCTION is
DISSOLVED
President Of Board Declares That
Subscription List for New Build
ing viii Be Headed With
s25o,ooo

The shady walks of Central park will
soon resound with the steady hammer
of busy workmen. For the supreme
court has just handed down q decision
that the city may erect q library in the
popular little downtown park, and the
library board proposes to begin work
at once.
j. II. Squires had secured an injunc-
tlon in the superior court restraining
the city from building a library in the
plot, on the ground that It would dam
age property but the supreme court
ruling gives the advantage to the city.
DR.. j. W. Trueworthy president of
the board, stated yesterday that 1t was
not the intention of the board to ask
for a bond election to build the new
structure. He believes that the neces-
sary amount can be readily raised by
private subscription, and steps will be
taken in the near future to start sub
scription list. 1t has been intimated
that a certain individual whose identity
Is being kept secret will donate $250,000
when the list is formally opened.
VIII Build for Future
1t is not the intention Of the board
to build simply for the present. A con-
crete building costing $350,000 or more
will be built in the center of the park
on ground now occupied by the band
stand. The building will be large
enough to permit of the growth of the
library In years to come. According to
City Librarian Lummis the present
quarters in the Laughln building will
be inadequate by the end of three years.
and 1t is necessary in building new
structure that the future growth of
the city be considered. The offices of
the library trustees and officials will be
put in the Central park structure.
Set in among the palms and trees Of
Central park, the new building will
have beautiful location, and the sur
will make an ideal spot for
one to come and read on summer af-
terDoon

CALLS WITNESS
LIAR IN COURT
BUSINESS WOMAN FINED FOR
CONTEMPT
Pays Fine cheerfully, but Does Not
Change Her Mind About the
VeraeIty Of Her Ira
ducers

Charged with malicious destruction
in chopping down the signs Of a real es-
tate company placed on property for
which she was agent, Miss L. M. Lem
mon of South Hill street yesterday
appeared for trial before Justice Pearce
of the township court, but quickly and
decisively won her case and departed
triumphant from the building.
The prosecution, however, had one
satisfaction, and meager as 1T was,
several of the witnesses tried to taunt
Miss Lennon about it, only to receive
caustic rebuke, for she had been fined
$5 for contempt of court and once out
side the precincts of Justice she did not
hesitate to repeat in good, sound Eng"
lish her estimate of the veracity Of
the real estate men, the expression of
which had caused her reproval by the
court few minutes before.
Miss Lennon opened a crusade on
the sign boards several weeks ago,
when she decided that a big real es-
tate sign, bearing the address of the
firm of Winton 6z Mcleod and painted
on property which she was trying to
sell, looked neither pretty nor graceful,
and therefore cut it down.
Woman Secures Agency
The real estate firm had sold the
property to another dealer named
Roster, and he in turn had made par
tial payment only to transfer 1T to still
another dealer named Johnson. He had
paid entirely for the tract, known as
the Figueroa tract on the Florence
road, but had not received a deed to
the property when the sole agency of
the place was allowed Miss Lennon,
a well known real estate woman of Los
Angeles.
Miss Lennon went to the tract and
took a prospective purchaser with her.
There before her loomed a big sign
In it, and the sign stated that the Win
ton & Mcleod company had real estate
to sell. Miss Lennon did not like the
sign and did not think 1t particularly
attractive to the lot upon which 1t was
planted and therefore she chopped 1t
down. At least that was her reason
given in court for her sudden removal
of the sign board. She admitted freely
that she had said that had she not
chopped down the sign she had thought
seriously Of burning 1t down.
When she had finished her Testimony
and, head held we'll in the air, had re-
turned to her place beside her attorney,
witnesses were called for the prosecu-
ton.
Calls Witness Liar
They were looked upon with disdain
by Miss Lennon, who was not back
ward In expressing her opinion of
them.
Finally, after many statements. to
which she took exception, had been
delivered by the witnesses for the pros
ecution, Miss Lennon could stand n
no longer, and as the last witness be-

Reading

Reading is the most important
subject in our common school
curriculum. 1t it the foundation
of all subsequent knowledge. If
pupil is a poor reader he is
handicapped in his other studies.
We, as teachers, are in q great
degree responsible for the wide
spread lethargy in the subject of
reading. Some teachers think,
OF act like they think that read
ing requires very little study; but
/ think it requires just as much
study to prepare a reading lesson
properly as it does any other
study.
Pupils are often able to read,
that is, pronouce the words but
when asked to give the thought,
they seem to know no more about
it than if it were some foreign Ian
guage. This can bcremedied to
to great extent by the constant
use of the dictionary. T e
dictionary is a book sadly neglect
ed in our schools yet it is indis-
pensible in our school work.
Reading requires clcse appii-
o,+:on 70 tho subject in hand
1t aleorequires thoughtful study of
the Figures of Speech. Many
beautiful thoughts are never
grasped because of the failure
to understand a Figure OF Speech.
Let US, as teachers, awake to the
great opportunity we have of in
stilling into the minds and hearts
of our boys and girls the love for
good wholesome reading.
