mand in the Financial Center.

Ever since the early days, when D.
o. Mills, j. b. Haggin and James R.
keene "emigrated" from California to
New York. the metropolis has been
drawing largely on the west and south
for its supply of men who do things"

able Life Assurance Society over to
its policyholders, who now elect ma
jority of its Board of Directors, and
Invested himself of the control of the
stock which he bought from Jas H.
Hyde, and the success of the new
management of the Society under the
direction of President Paul Morton,
have created a demand for the strong
men of the south and west that is
greater than ever before. Under the
Morton management the Equitable has
made better showing than any other
insurance company in the way of i'm
proved methods, economies and in
creased returns to policyholders.

Killed Over Bunch of key..

Cheyenne, Wyo.-Emil Cossi was
ahot by Herbert H. Harper and died an
hour and a half later.
Harper was arrested by witness to
the shooting and is now in the county
Jail. He refuses to make statement.
A week ago Cossi and Harper, both
OF whom are employed by the North
ern Colorado Power Company, quar-
relied regarding some keys. and several
times later the quarrel was renewed
On two occasions, it is said, Harper
threatened Cossi with a gun. The men
boarded at the same place and they
met on the porch of the house and
fought.
They were separated and Harper
got a revolver. Returning he found
Cossi standing on the sidewalk. few
words passed between them and Har-
per opened fire, sending three bullets
into Cossi's body. A dozen people wit
messed the shooting.
Cossi was unmarried and came to
Cheyenne from Denver four months
ago.
Nothing regarding his family connec-
tions is known here.
A brother OF Cossi is employed by
the Denver Gas and Electric Company
In Denver as switchboard tender at
the West Side station.

Express Companies Fight Cut.

The express companies operating
into Denver from the East are fighting
law recently passed in Nebraska re-
ducing rates which will affect express
rates in the same manner that the 2
cent per mile legislation will affect
through tickets between Denver and
the East. The Nebraska Railway Com
mission has ordered reduction OF
twenty-five per cent. in the schedules
now in effect by the Adams, the Wells
Fargo, the American, the Pacific and
the United States Express companies
In Nebraska, and has instructed these
companies to publish a new schedule.
The various express companies have
refused to publish the schedule and
are subject to fine Of $1,000 each. In
stead they applied to the United States
District Court for an injunction to pre-
vent the railway commission from
seeking to establish new schedule.
Judge Munger, before whom the appli
cation was made, denied the injunc-
ton and decided against the express
companies. He has, however, allowed
the commission to appear and show
why the injunction should not be
granted. This will come up in Omaha.
The reduction of twenty-five per
cent. ordered by the Nebraska commits
sion on all express schedules in effect
in that state, if put into effect. will also
reduce the through charges on express
matter from Colorado to Chicago, ST.
Louis and the East on the same basis
that the railroads are being forced to
give Colorado a reduction in fares be-
cause of legislation in states traversed
en- route.

"A day or two after. waited on a
lady who was buying a Csc package
and told her couldn't understand how
one could fancy the taste of Postum.
"I know just what is the matter,
she said, you put the coffee boiler on
the stove for just fifteen minutes, and
ten minutes of that time 1t simmered,
and perhaps five minutes 1t boiled
