HISS OF BULLETS
ATTEMPT TO ASSASSINATE
GRAND DUKE NICHOLAS.
SHAM BATTLE MADE REAL
Loaded Cartridges Substituted for
Blank Cartridges in Russian Mill.
tsry Maneuvers.-Crack Regiment
Under Suspicion.

SeoPlS'OIIs
st. Petersburg.-Grand Duke Nicho-
las Nicholaievitch, president of the
Council of National Defense, narrowly
escaped assassination Saturday after
neon at the hands of the Imperial
Guards in the guard camp at KrasIoye-
Selo. The grand duke was personally
reviewing the maneuyering and put
ting the troops through blank firing
practice when he was suddenly
startled by the waspIike hiss Of bull
lets about his head Fortunately
neither himself nor his horse was
touched.
The command to cease firing was
Immediately given, the soldiers of the
regiment from which the bullets came
were marched back to their quarters
and an investigation begun.
1t was only after a long investiga-
tion that it was determined that the
ball cartridges were fired by the first
battalion of sharpshooters, one of the
elite corps o fthe Russian army. Sus-
piclon was directed toward the "one
year volunteers" recruits, who, in con-
sideration of their educational quail
f1cations and social position, escape
with one year instead of four years
service. Many of these men are ex-
students at universities and are the
principal spreaders of the revolution
ary propaganda among the troops.
Grand Duke Nicholas was sitting his
charger and observing the maneuver
from the top of an entrenchment. The
troops were advancing by short rushes
in open order across a wide, level field,
firing blank yolleys by squads as they
came.
Suddenly, when the first echclon of
the attacking force, consisting of
sharpshoOters, was from 400 to 500
yaIds distant, a bullet sang high over
head, followed by another and still
another. The cry was raised they
are firing ball" and the group was
thrown into great confusion. After
frantic signaling cease firing" was
sounded, but the shots continued for
some time
Grand Duke Nicholas remarked when
he Joined his suite: 1T would be more
realistic if the troops always fred ball
during maneuvers, but this is unpar-
donable negligence"
How tie cOnspiratOrs obtained ball
cartridges mas not Oeen aScertalnSd, as
ammunition is always called in after
the men return from patrol duty.
Fully a hundred shots were fired but
the impatience of the cOnspirators led
them to open fire at such a distance
as to Illustrate their object. Before
the maneuvers began all the ball cart
ridges were taken from the troops and
TIE officers had taken the precaution
to make a complete examination of
the cartridge pouches OF the soldiers
Immediately before the Inauguration
of the movement of the troops.

Agricultural College Exhibit.

Fort Collins.-The State Board of
Agriculture has decided to send an
exclusive educational exhibit 20 the
State fair at Pueblo that will eclipse
any exhibit that has ever been shown
at that place. 1t is planned to ship
several carloads of pure bred cattle,
sheep and swine, representing a dozen
different breeds. Among this live
stock will be winners of first honors at
national shows, among them Jolie
Johanna, Holstein COW that won the
grand championship of the breed at the
st. Louis exposition, and Effie of Dal-
meny, an Angus COW that took first
prize in the Royal shows Of England
before being imported to the United
States.

Cause and Effect

Dame fashions dictatorial forehnger
is notoriously ever ready to point out
the way. Nothing seems to be too
high, low. or mean to bar this imperi-
Gus queen. DR.. ]. G. Rossmore. A
young practicing physician of Atlanta
Ga. now a patron at the Holland
house, has discovered that golf is re-
sponsible in many cases for men and
women who stoop and turn their toes
inward Said he: The game, which
is played in Atlanta probably more
than in any other part of the United
States, makes its devotees pigeon-toed
for there are strokes, As you know,
that can only be well delivered when
the toes point in. Cause and effect fol

People Like the Cities.

Large cities grow larger at tre
mendous rate. The rural and semi.
rural communities are steadily drained
OF their population to feed the towns.
In no part of the United States is this
Capitalization proceeding more rapid
ly than in the great agricultural states
OF the west. Census bureau figures
show that during the past five years
a out of 1O5 counties in Kansas
showed a loss of population. In Iowa,
all but % of the 80 counties of the
state have now fewer inhabitants than
they contained in 1900 In Pennsyl,
vania the growth of Philadelphia has
been much more rapid than the
growth of the rural portion of the
state. 1t is often wondered who lives
In all the new houses that are built in
this city, says the Philadelphia Press.
Dwellings are going up at the rate of
over 1000 month. The natural
growth of the city would fill some of
these new houses, but not all of them.
1t requires the steady stream of rural
population that is constantly flowing
In this direction. Why do they come?
The freer and gayer life attracts
many. The hopes of larger field for
the development of their ambitions
lures others. Perhaps motives less
honorable than any of these impel still
more to seek seclusion in the wilder
ness of streets" The best and the
worst undoubtedly come. AS a result
of the immense growth of the cities,
the problem of governing them prop
erly and of making them beautiful and
attractive is steadily increasing in i'm
portance. 1t has come to be true that
the biggest questions in government
are local.

Wanton Destruction of Fish.

Denver.-A Republican special from
Steamboat Springs Saturday says:
Some miscreant last night attempted
to kill all the young fish in the Steam
boct Springs fish hatchery by shutting
off the water which supplied the build
ing at the head of Soda creek, and but
for the fortunate discovery by Superin-
tendent Brickel at 2 o'clock this morn.
ing that the water was, not flowing in
the trough, all of the half million young
trout would have been dead in a short
time. 1t was only by most strenuous
work on the part of Mr. Brickel's fam
lily that enough fresh water was kept
in the trough to preserve the life in
the fish and this was supplied by buck
cts from a ditch at some little distance
from the hatchery. Early this morn
ing it was thought every fish that had
been hatched this year would die, but
this evening the superintendent has
hope of saving considerably more than
half of those which have attained
growth of one inch or more, but all
of the late Matching are dead and the
loss may reach 200,O of both rainbow
and native trout

PRINTERS SEE THE SIGHTS.
Visit the Gold Camp-SmaII Blaze at
the Printers Home.

Colorado Springs, Colo.-There was
no business OF the International Typo
graphical Union Tuesday, as the visl-
tors were on an excursion. \ snow
storm in August was the unique eXpcr-
ience of the delegates and their friends
on a Short Line trip to Cripple Creek.
Fully 1000 persons went on the eXcur-
sion to the camp and the delegates
visited the gold mines.
Tom d Fennessey of Los Angeles,
California, trustee of the Union Print
ers' Home, who is attending the Inter
national Typographical Union Conven-
tion in this city. eXtinguished fire at
the Printers Home this evening, pre-
venting serious damage and probably
more serious results to the inmates.
Mr. Fennessey was being shown about
the home by the matrOn, Mrs. Charles
Deacon. When they came to the laun-
dry building it was discovered to be in
flames. Mrs. Deacon ran into the main
building and blew the whistle, which
alarmed the fire corps. Although the
latter responded with all possible
promptness, they did not arrive on the
scene for several minutes. Meanwhile
Mr.. Fennessey had succeeded in eX-
tinguishing the flames with several
rugs. 1t was not necessary to turn on
the water. Fennessey's hands were
slightly burned.

DENVER COURTS CONFLICT.
Prisoners for Contempt Freed by
Judge Palmer.

Denver.-Judge Lindsey sent Henry
L Doherty, president of the Gas com
pany; Fred a. Williams, ex-Ghairman
of the Republican county committee;
George n. Ordway, president of the
Elections Commission, and ]. Cook, Jr.,
to Jail because they would not testify
as witnesses in the examination into
the alleged election frauds of May 18th
on the vote for franchises for the Den
yer City Tramway Company and the
Gas and Electric Company.
Judge Peter l.. Palmer took jurisdic-
tiOn in a habeas corpus proceeding
and ordered the sheriff to produce the
prisoners in court September 1lth, and
show why he held them. Meanwhile he
released them from custody on a bond
of 81 900 in each case.
Judge John |. Mullins, who at pres.
ent presides in the criminal branch OF
the District Court, held that under the
rule of the District Court the writs are
TCturnable in the Criminal Court and
set aside the order admitting the pris-
onors to bail. This makes them liable
TO reinCarceratiOn at once on the orig
inal commitments to Jail made out by
Judge Lindsey. The sheriff was in
structed to apprehend them immedi-
ately and take them back to Jail. So
far they have not been found.
Besides the search for the four per-
sons by the sheriff on the order for
their incarceration issued by Judge
Mullins, officers have new subpoenas to
serve, ordering them into the County
Court to act as witnesses. 1t is plain
that Judge Lindsey intends to compel
their attendance again and to punish
them over again if they refuse, as be-
fore, to testify.

New Crimes by Bank Looter.

Chicago-The belief that large
amounts of collateral given as security
for notes in the Milwaukee Avenue
State bank, have been stolen, praCti-
cally became a certainty last night,
when a note for $4,000, known to be
genuine was found in President stems
lands house at Byron street and Lawn
dale avenue. Search was made for the
collateral security, but it could not be
found.
The discovery opened up n field for
almost unlimited speculation as to how
far the looting proceeded before Stems
land disappeared. If the real estate
and other securities in the bank have
been stolen or are found to be worth
less the amount of money left to pay
the depositors probably will be reduced
to as low as twenty-five per cent.

NO CHANCE FOR PARDON.
Governor Has No CIemency for I'm
boden and Hill.

Denver.-In the office of the secre-
tary of the State Board of Pardons has
been filed a protest against the par
doning of Leonard Imboden and J. A.
Hill by members of the grand jury who
indicted the two bankers"
Governor Mcdonald said, as reported
in the Republican, that as long as he
remained in office there would DO lit
tie danger of either ImbOden Or Hill
getting out of the penitentiacy. He
had looked carefully into their numer-
Gus allegations and felt assured that
up to date they had no case worthy OF
the consideration of the Board of Par
dons. The emphatic attitude of the gov
ernor indicated there was no necessity
for the filing of the petition of the
grand jury, though Willis F. Wolff, a
member OF that body, seemed to be
under impression that there was He
circulated the petition.
Governor Mcdonald frequently has
said that he believed Imboden and Hill
should serve their full time. He would
not issue pardon for them, even with
the recommendation of the pardons
board, as the latter body merely acts in
an advisory capacity. The governor
knows all about the case and takes no
stock in the representations of Hill and
lmboden in their petition for pardon.
On file in the office of the secretary of
the Board of Pardons are numerous
sensational charges against men who
have been connected with the case.
Governor Mcdonald says that the
board instructed Attorney Debolt to
furnish aftidavits in support of these
charges, in order that the board might
made thorough investigation. 1t was
suggested to DebOlt at the same time,
however, that it would have been bet
ter TO have brought these charges up
at the time of the trial of the prisoners.

Greeley. Colo-The Greeley Com
mercial Club has collected $500 to be
used in sending out an agricultural eX-
hibit gathered from the vicinity of Gree
ley, Windsor and Ault, to advertise
the resources of this section. The ag-
ricultural products will be gathered

chairman of the agricultural and hor
tiCultural committee of the club.
August 18th Pullman car will leave
Denver carrying exhibits from ten
different sections Of the state to be
shown in Iowa, Illinois, Indiana and
Wisconsin, in connection with a ster-
eopticon lecture on the subject of the
resources and advantages of the sec
tiOns in which the products were
grown. The exhibits will travel 100
days and will be shown at state fairs
in the above states and at interstate
fairs at Sioux City. Iowa, as well as
at other places. Later the exhibits
will be placed at the state fair in Pu-
eblo in September and there may com,
pete for prizes.
Greeley has donated $500 through
its commercial club, Windsor and Ault
500 each toward exhibitions to be
made from these localities.

Generous to American Farmers


Secretary Wilson says it would re.
auire an investment of $3.50, 600, 900 at
two per cent. to produce revenues
enough to run the department of agri-
culture for one year. This is an illus
tration, he said, of what is being done
or the farmer. The income Of the de-
partment is little more than Sill
100000 a year, and when the new meat
inspection law, the work of extermi-
mating the cattle fever tick and the
gypsy and brown-tailed moth and the
investigation of dry land farming have
been put in operation, the department
will have a pay roll of over 5000 per
sons. About half of these are scien-
lists, trained along special lines. The
average salary is less than 5000 a year.
Over 100000 pieces of literature are
circulated each year and this amount
will be greatly increased as new lines
of investigation are begun. One of
the new lines provided for this year
is grain inspection and this promises
to be one of the largest fields of scien
tific labor.
