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
on right away and the weather moder.
ates so that digging can be resumed, Il
Is probable that the greater portion Of
the crop may be saved. The situation
is grave for those still having beets in
the ground.

point TO thickness OF half an inch by
an inch in his right cheek. II had

under the right ear.
A passenger coach and two freight
cars on the Colorado a Northwestern
were raised from the track while on n
bridge thirty feet high. on the north
ern slope OF Sugar Loaf hill. about
mile above Sunset. The cars bumped
along on the ties until OF the bridge.
then turned over and slid down hill.
The fifteen passengers in the coach
were but slightly injured. The engine
did not leave the track, and the fact
that the coupling held prevented
greater damage.
John Dickson. who was driving to
jamestown with simply the running
gear OF q wagon. with a woman and a
little girl. was blown OF the rosA on
Lee hill. The girl had an arm broken.
A board several feet long was lifted

and many houses had win
dows blown in. A coal wagon was up
set between Boulder and Marshall and
n horse was killed. The damage in
the city will amount to about $50 900.
The electric lights were shut OF here
to prevent damage by possible live
wires. which might have been torn
from the poles. The damage to the |
system was not great. except In the |
way Of broken poles and tangled wires.
The telephone system had 100 poles
down and 800 phones useless. because
Of broken wires and cables. Much |
damage to buildings and trees was
done all over the city.
A new oil derrick on the Major Jain |
farm. about hve miles north OF town. |

There seems TO be labor famine
throughout the land, and the same is
true ofother countries. The South is
calling for cotton-p ickers aud the West
is short Of corn huskers. A cry for
milk maids comes from every dairy
and creamery East, North and West.
There Is also scarcity Of skilled labor,

pioyed in American industries il equal

towns are the most wonderful indus

that comes out Of the Pittsburg DIS

more labor.

for agricultural labor, farm hands; but
the South lin sorer need Of bstter farm
