SCOTTY'S THRILLING TALE.

Los Angeles, Jan. 4.-Walter Scott
the mysterious miner of Death val
ley. speed maniac and breaker of
transcontinental railroad records
went into Barstow yesterday with a
serious bullet wound in his thigh. He
tells a thrilling story of ambush on
the desert, an encounter with men
who followed him to find the mine
from which he draws his wealth. and
narrow escape. He says he knows
the three men who ambushed him
With him were a white man and an
Indian.
The fight was carried on from be
hind rocks and boulders and Scott
was the only one injured. Riding
seventy miles on his mule Slim, he
offered all whom he met 500 for a
quart of whiskey. Sleeping at night
on the desert, he was aroused by
coyotes trying to dig him out. The
doctors say he will recover if blood
poisoning does not set in.

o'BRIEN AND RUHLrN MATCHED

A dispatch from New York to the
Denver Post says:
In all probability the next fight for
the heavyweight championship of the
world will take place in the east.
Last night Tom O'Rourke announc-
cd that he had received assurances
from Billy Rockapy, the fight pro-
moter that Philadelphia Jack o.
Brien. holder of the heavyweight
championship by virtue of having de
feated Bob Fitzsimmons had agreed
to meet Gus Rubin before the Tux
edo club in about six weeks. 1t is
the intention of the promoters to have
twenty round battle.
The Tuxedo Athletic club is a Gre
alton of Tom O'Rourke and is just
outside the city of Philadelphia. Be
ing beyond the city limits it is thought
possible to pull off bouts of twenty
rounds A new clubhouse recently
was bilt by O'Rourke and his assoc
iates. and if nothing in legal way
arises to interfere with the contest,
the men Will clash either in the lat
ter part of February. or the first
week in March.
Since the arrival in Philadelphia
from the coast last Saturday. o.
Brien has several times announced
that he would give the Akron man a
chance and as Rubin has been anx-
ious to break into the game again he
lost no time in declaring his will
ingness to meet the Quaker. 1t is
said that the Tuxedo club will hang
up a large purse for the match, prob
ably 100000, in anticipation of bic

HE is A FRIEND
OF GRAND JUNCTION.

A dispatch from Washington shows
that Grand Junction in her fight for
public federal building will have
strong friend in Senator Sco't. of
West Virginia, probably stronger
friend in that respect than our cwn
distinguished congressman. The dis
patch leads as follows:
\ public building for every towl CT
city with over 5000 population is the
motto of Senator Nathan Bay Scott of
West Virginia, the new chairman of
the senate committee on public build
ings and grounds.
Senator Scott is essentially bust
ness man, as his biography in the
Congressional directory shows. AS
boy he served in the federal army
during the Civil war. Then he be-
came engaged in manufacturing and
has been in that line of work and in
mining, not only in the East but
in Cripple Creek, Colorado, with poll
tics as side issue, up to the pres
ent. Looking at the question of fed
eral buildings for postoflice and other
governmental uses. Senator Scott
would like to adjust the proposition
to business basis.
The government is paying in the
way of rentals IN per cent inter
est upon the value of the property II
occupies" he said. THE government
can borrow at the rate of two per
cent per annum all the money needed
to put up public buildings and sim
ply consider it poor business to pay
17h per cent when you can get
something much better for two per
cent"
Senator Scott has introduced a bill
embodying his ideas on this plan OF
providing generally for public build
ings. II provides that the secretary
of treasury may borrow 100000
600 to defray the expenditures for
the erection of public buildings in
cities of 5000 or more population.
whenever the erection of such build
ings may be authorized by congress.
In exchange for the funds thus to be
borrowed the secretary shall issue
bonds of the United States, in de-
nominations of 500 redeemable at the
pleasure of the government after ten
years from the date of their issue,
and bearing interest at the rate of
two per cent per annum.
Senator Scott will urge the adop-
tlon of his bill at this session of
congress and in his capacity of chair
man of the public buildings commit
tee he viii be able to do much tow
ard accomplishing this.

LaFoLLETTE TAKES THE OATH

Washington, Jan. After wait
ing for almost year. r. NJ. LaFol-
lette appeared in the senate when il
reconvened today after the holiday
recess to claim his seat as a senator
from Wisconsin. and the oath of office
was administered to him by Vice
President Fairbanks.
The ceremony was witnessed by a
crowded gallery which manifested
much interest in the proceedings.
This interest was greatly heightened
by the fact that Mr.. LaFollette was
escorted into the senate chamber
and to the vice president by Mr.
Spooner. between whom and Mr.
LaFollette there had been in recent
years a difference of opinion as to
party and public policies amounting
to personal antagonism.
Neither senator displayed any of
such feeling today.

A MOST IMPRESSIVE SCENE

The scene of all scenes in the
great religious drama. Ben Hur,"
is the miracle on Mount olivet. with
which the performance terminates.
This final scene in the drama shows
the reunion of Ben-Hur. his mother
and sister Esther, after the pass
ing of Christ into Jerusalem. The
mother and sister of Hur, who were
stricken with leprosy. have been
cleansed by the Nazarene, and they
are surrounded by a wondering null
titude, who sing praises to Jesus of
Nazareth.
In this incident of the drama Christ
does not appear as a personality. The
curtain rises on the gathering of the
multitude who come out of Jerusalem
to worship Him. waving branches of
palms and singing anthems. The
lepers appear, guided by Amarah
Christ passes higher up the mount.
The afflicted ones raise their hands
to Him in duplication and great
shaft of wonderously brilliant light
suggestive of His presence falls on
their heads. and they are healed. In
the book story and tale embraces the
Crucifxion. This incident could not,
of course have a place on any dra-
matte presentation except the Pass
ion play, performed with the miracle
scene, the drama of Ben Hur" main
tains the religious interest of the
story in a most remarkably effective
way, at the same time treating 1t
with the utmost reticence and res
pect The music introduced in this
scene is equal to that heard in Grand

rus of 200 voices sings in canon form
