Oldest Enqineer In Colorado.

Golden, Colo-Perhaps the Oldest
civil engineer in Colorado, in point of
longevity, residence in the state, and
in activity following his profession, is
Capt. Z. l.. Berthoud of this city, who
celebrated his eightieth birthday ami
versary to-day by running the lines OF
a forty-acre tract near the city. In
spite of the four score years the cap
tain is in splendid health, and can do
as good days work in the field as any
OF the younger civil engineers.
His career is one of great activity,
and includes the performance Of many
feats in his line of work which will be
remembered for centuries. He was
chief engineer for the Colorado Cen
tral railroad, and planned and laid out
the famous Georgetown loop and Cen
trail City switchback, which are still
wonders of railroad building. He was
t7e OF the founders of Golden, and
made plats for the original townsite.
Much of the railroad building in the
great West was done under direction
Of his transit.
Aside from being the Oldest civil en-
gineer in Colorado, Captain Berthoud
is also q pioneer in the same line in
Panama In 1851 he was sent by a
New York syndicate to that country,
where he put in two years locating and
experimenting construction of the
Panama railway. He served during the
War of the Rebellion in the Second
Colorado cavalry, where he acquired
the title of captain.

FIRST PROTEST UNDER NEW LAW
Minnesota Shipper Calls Upon New
Colorado Railroad Commission.

Denver.-The first protest under the
new railway rate law has been filed
with Governor Buchtel, and will be
taken up by the commission as soon
as it is organized for business.
The protest comes from man at
Cass Lake, Minnesota, whose name is
withheld, as the governor decided it
would not be advisable to disclose the
identity of the shipper in a case of
this kind. 1t has not been decided
whether this will be a permanent pol
icy of the board.
The Denver & Rio Grande is tho
railway against which the first COM
plant is lodged In his communica-
ton to Governor Buchtel the shipper
says he was charged $1.30 ON 100
pounds of honey from Delta to Pueblo,
when the rate from Grand Junction to
Minneapolis for this consignment as
per schedule. was only s1.77 per 100
pounds
The shipper says he demonstrated
dress, and asks the governor to in
vestigate the matter. His letter fol-
lows:
Cass Lake, Mimi, March &c, 1907
Honored Sir:-I ordered a case of
extra honey in tin, Grated. from Delta.
Colorado, weight 100 pounds.
The charges were $3.13, as to be
seen from bill enclosed.
/ have Mt hand a freight scale. CIV
ing rate on fourth-class freight from
Grand Junction. Colorado (which is
further west). as s1.77 per 100 pounds
to Minneapolis.
AS | was oyercharged by the Den
yer & Rio Grande, demonstrated, but
they replied that they charged me
S1.30 from Delta to Pueblo; that is,
s1.3o for 130 pounds. or 1 cent
pound freight.
That looks like express rates-like
skinning.
If freight rate from Minneapolis to
Grand Junction is only SLIT per 100
pounds, why can they charge that
much between Delta and Pueblo?
Please investigate and try to get

Two Hundred Reported Lost.

St Johns, N. F.-The steamship
Greenland, with 1S3 men on board, is
reported lost off the Newfoundland
coast.
The Greenland was engaged in the
seal fisheries. She broke her main
shaft in the heavy weather last Sat
urday, AMI during a raging blizzard on
Sunday was driven seaward and has
not since been seen by the other ves-
sells of the fleet.
Word of the disaster was brought
here to-day by the sealing steamer
Grand Lake. According to Captain
Lee Of the Grand Lake the master of
the Greenland, after the breaking OF
the vessels shaft, attempted to induce
the master of the steamer Diana to
take 100 of the crew aboard that ves-
sci, but this was not done as there
was insufficient room on the Diana.
The Greenland disappeared soon after
ward.

Boosts Burial Business.

Hoboken, N. J.-Undertaker Necker
OF Union Hill not only believes in ad-
vertising. but he long since decided
that testimonials, such as patent medi-
cine manufacturers occasionally use,
would boost his receipts astonishingly.
how to get the testimonials bothered
him for weeks, but to-day when the
Weekly Observer was sent around to
its hundreds of subscribers, it was
seen that Necker had found a way.
There, following the obituary of Mrs
Giesenhaus, and adorned with a pic
ture of her son, F. w. Giesenhaus,
smiling happily, appeared the follow
ing:
II hereby wish to thank Undertaken
William Necker of Union Hill for bis
excellent service and the fair treat
ment he rendered us in conducting the
funeral of my dear mother. l have
often seen Mr.. Necker's advertisement
in the Observer, telling about his ex-
tremely low prices for funerals, and de-
cided, when my mother died, to try
him. Now 1 can say that his services
are excellent-unexpecte satisfac-
tory, indeed. Considering prices for
funerals, for all that he did, must say
it was extremely low, and just as he
advertised. l honestly can recommend
Mr.. Necker to every one. He has saved
me about $50.
FIRED WILLIAM GIESENHAUS."

wher. the Rou.t Estate VIII Go.

Denyer-The estate of Mrs. John L.
Routt, The wife of former Governor
Routt of Colo RADIO, who died last week,
will probably be divided between her
daughter and the children OF Governor
Routt by former wife. The VIII
left by Mrs Routt has not been pro-
bated and probably will not be during
the life time OF the governor, who has
not been made acquainted with the
fact that his wife is dead
According to those in position to
know. all the Routt property was in
Mrs. Routt's name. and her Will, which
was drawn with Mr.. Routt's consent,
leaves half OF her property to her
daughter, Mrs. Lila Routt Collins, and
the other half to her husband TO re-
vert to the four children Of the first
Mrs. Routt, who are John II. Routt,
Frank Routt. Mrs. Emma Butler and
Mrs. w. II. Bryant. This is the way
the property would be divided il Mrs.
Routt had died without making a
will.
The children of the former governor
are in comfortable circumstances. and
whether Mrs. Routt has left them a
portion of the fortune given her by her
husband is not of vital interest to
them.
81 have paid little attention to the
matter" said Mrs. w. H. Bryant, who
is now living at the Metropole. "The
will of my step-mother has not been
opened, and until it is we will not
know how she has disposed of her for
tune. We feel that she has provided
for her own daughter and think that
it would be natural and proper for her
to do SO. Outside of that we do not
know whether she has left anything
for us. and feel that whatever she has
done is tight"
The value of the estate will not ex-
coed 100000.
