plying their employees in the new office
building at Tenth and Market streets

The water comes from springs on the

Brandywine, and is conveyed to the
ofice building in tank wagons, made
especially for this purpose The
wagons contain an amount sufficient TO
supply the Office force for day. and
as the quantity is not large it makes it
easier on the horses which draw the
wagon.
In each room in the building and IN

DoctrIno OF Hatred in War.

IL is a fresh experience to take up
a book which breaches a doctrine OF
hatred on the ground that living
personal hatred is a most valuable
fighting asset. and this is all that
can be said In favor OF these
"Hersies OF Sea Power" Mr.. Jane
quotes Nelson TO support his curious
theory. and declares that a crude de-
sire TO kill Russians contributed ma
terially to the success OF Japanese
arms in the late war. 1t is unfortun-
ate for his argument that Nelson
should have been 80 consistently
chivalrous to opponents and that the
Japanese seem TO have been anxious
10 spare and save life whenever kill
ing served no useful purpose. This
attempt to connect blood lust with
victory shows how difficult It may be
for civilian TO understand the pc
culiar sympathy which exists between
fighting men of different nations. II

Sleep and Old Aae.

There is no question that the
quantity of sleep required steadily dim
inishes from infancy to old age. This
is a 1ather interesting exception to
the general rule that, as in so many
matters, old age returns to the needs
of infancy. As regards sleep, says
London Pail Mall Gazette, old age is
more remote in its needs from infancy
than is any other period of life. II
elderly people obtain good sleep dur.
ing the first few hours, and II they
have not lost that delight in reading
which we all had in youth, but which
SO many of us curiously lose, their
case is not to be grieved over. The
special value of the earliest hours OF
Sleep, by the way, has been proved by
psychological experiment. The popu.
lar phrase beauty sleep" is well war
ranted. 1t is the early (the deepest)
hours OF sleep that make for health
and beauty.

|A TERRIBLE DEED;
BOY THROWS RED PEPPER IN
EYES OF AGED BRIDE.
PRANK OF CHARIvARI PARTY
Mrs. N. S. Vast of Bellevue Raises
Window to Greet the Crowd and
Has Face Filled With Pepper.

Fort Collins, Colo.-The town OF
Bellevue, twelve miles northwest OF
Fort Collins, is aroused to fever heat
as the result of an attack made on the
aged bride of N S. West, pioneer OF
that place, by member of charivari
party, and if the identity of the guilty
person is established he will be sum-
marily dealt with. Red pepper was
dashed into the eyes of the woman, and
it is feared she will lose her sight.
The affair is said to be the outcome
Of feud between residents of the dis
trict over certain land lines, in which
West was involved. The son of men,
Der of the rival faction is suspected.
No warrants have been sworn out
pending an investigation to definitely
establish the identity of the persons
responsible. West has not decided
whether or not to push the prosecu-
ton, but his friends are determined
that the guilty parties will be brought
10 justice even if it is necessary to
take the law into their own hands.
Mrs. West war formerly Mrs. A. E.
Adams, her husband having died sew
eral years ago. She is fifty years old
and was married to West, who is fifty
three, Saturday night. She is his third
wife.
Last night about o'clock, as the
couple was about to retire, the chart
vari party began the serenade. Little
attention was paid to them until, fall
ing to get any response to their noises,
they became boisterous and began to
throuw rocks through the windows.
West requested the boys to leave the
premises, but he was jeered and
hooted until forced to go back into the
house. The throwing of rocks against
the house continued until nearly every
window light was broken. West then
attempted to talk to the youths, but his
voice was drowned by the noise.
Mrs. West leaned through one OF
the broken windows and attempted to
advise the lads. She had spoken but
a few words when one of the number
ran up and threw the pepper into her
face. Her eyes were filled with the
burning substance and so eXcruciating
was the pain that she almost COM
pletely collapsed.
A physician was hurriedly sum.
moned and spent the entire night in an
effort to relieve the pain. She is still
suffering intensely and the doctors are
unable to say whether or not her sight
can be saved. In the dark, Mrs. West
was unable to see the lad who threw
the pepper, but there is strong suspi
cion against prominent young man
of the city.

New Buildings at the University.

In pursuance of the appropriation b.
the last Legislature of 100000 to the
State University, the regents o, that
institution have ordered the drawing
OF plans and the bidding of contracts
for a $4,000 shop building to be added
to the facilities of the College of En-
cheering. The location of the build
ing and its details have already been
decided upon. According to a definite
scheme of campus arrangement the
new shops will be situated ON what is
at present the girls hockey field and
will be modern in every respect. There
will be modified "saw-tooth" roof
which will allow the entrance of plenty
of light to the wood-turning rooms, the
wood benches, the forge shop, the
foundry, the machine shop, and the
drawing rooms below. In size, ISL feet
in length by SO feet in width, the shop
building will be erected so as to per-
init indefinite additions as increases de-
mands. The construction of the new
shops Is a solution of the crowded
conditions caused by the rapid increase
in enrolment in the College of Engi-
neering and will leave greater space in
the present buildings for the other
courses of the department. The shop
work is essentially first year study
aud the new shop building will natur-
ally be devoted largely to the use of
the freshmen. When completed it will
be, SO authorities estimate, the finest
of its kind in any technical school west
of the Mississippi, with the possibility
of one exception. The fact Of its cree
tion is but mark of the growth of the
importance and value of the University
of Colorado. The regents have also
concluded to erect part of another
building but more particular an
nouncements regarding it have not
been given to the public.
