ment that can be gained by them from
the government Of New Mexico. the cit
liens of San Juan county. New Mexico.
have announced that they propose to

In their petition, which they intend

that the people of the San Juan county
have had no voice in the government
and are dissatisfied.
The county contains 100000 acres
and had 1900 qualified voters at the
last election. The population is $500.
The petition asks that the President

STRANGE ROMANCE OF CIVIL WAR
Two Veterans Now Living In Denver
Brought Together by Tick
of q Watch.

Denver.-Seeking the aid of two con.
gressmen to find the owner OF a watch
which was lost In the Civil War, A. c.
Koogle of Denver has at last been sue
cessful, and Captain Charles Alfred
Edmonds, a veteran of the war, will
soon get back the precious timepiece,
which he had never hoped TO see
again. Mr.. Koogle has been living in
Denver for thirty-six years and Cap
tain Edmonds has been here. too, but
neither knew the other. Both had
stopped thinking about the incident of
the watch until Mr.. Koogle went East
recently to visit relatives in Maryland,
when his sister noticed the old watch
and recalled the story connected with
it. In his diligent search for the owner
Mr.. Koogle wrote to Congressman
Gardner and Smith of Michigan, and
through their efforts Captain Edmonds
was located to-day at 4025 Stuart
street, Denver, and was inormed that
he would soon get back the historic
watch.
At the battle of South Battle Noun
who was in the Seventeenth Michigan
infantry, was wounded. That was
September IA. 1862. He was taken 10
the home of Mr.. Koogle's sister in
Middletown, Maryland. and an arm
was taken of Captain Edmonds gave
his watch to the woman to keep for
him, and after recovering enough to
travel was sent home. He forgot his
watch and long ago gave up any hope
of ever seeing 1t again. Captain Ed
monds is happy TO think that he will
soon receive the watch around which
clings such history
When Mr.. Koogle wrote to the Mich
igan congressman asking for aid in
finding the captain, they had the let
ter published in the newspapers of
Michigan, and Captain Edmonds soon
got e clipping sent by an old friend
in Cool Water, Michigan. Mr.. KoogIe
is expected to return to Denver soon,
and then the treasured old timepiece
which went through the horrors of
many battles will be restored to it's
happy owner.
My recollection is dimmed by the
long years, and even the character of
the timepiece has vanished from my
thoughts" said Captain Edmonds to-
day, though l now remember leaving
it with Miss Koogle at Middletown,
Maryland, five miles from Battle
Mountain"

Haywood Trial Again Put Off.

Boise, 1daho.-It is probable that the
first of the Moyer-Haywood-P Pettibone
trials will not begin before May End.
The preliminaries have taken moro
time than was expected when 1t was
announced that the first trial would
probably begin April 18th. 1t was def
initely agreed between the attorneys
for the state and the defense that
thirty days. time should be given after
the disposal of the preliminary motion
before the beginning of the trial, and
as it will be several days before tho
last of the motions will be ruled upon.
1t is wholly improbable that Haywood
who will be the first of the defendants
tried, will be placed on trial next
month. The prisoners will again be
taken to Caldwell Monday. when Judge
Fremont Wood will give his ruling on
the motion for a change OF venue.
While the prosecution seems confident
the motion will be overruled it is con-
ceded that the defense made a strong
showing n favor of a change. If tho
motion is sustained it is certain that
Boise will be named as the place of
trial.

Died With His Clothes on.

Denver. = Five minutes before
Charles B. AIKEN, scion of family Of
pioneers, himself an argonaut of 1S49
in California and ffty-niaer in Colo
rado, when asked by his daughter If he
would like little whisky as a stimu-
liant, smiled and asked: did you ever
know me to refuse such an Offer"
Then the old man drank his whisky
and few minutes later died of heart
failure. He had been i'll q long time.
Recently, believing that the end was
near, the cheerful pioneer refused to
remove his clothes day or night. He
wanted to die in full dress, desire
somewhat akin to that of many West
erners who insisted on dying with
their boots on. Death occurred last
week at the nome of his daughter, Mrs.
D. L. Robinson. 917 Twelfth street.
Nearly two centuries ago Sir Charles
Bookins, a Scotch-Irish Catholic. set
tied with others of his faith in Mary
land. Mr.. AIKEN was the last of the
line, the name of AIKEN having been
taken later. In every branch of the
family one son was named Charles
Brookins, and recently Mr.. AIKEN was
notified that he was heir to a portion
of the Maryland estate descended
ehiOuSh thS ldIullY. HIS
forefathers had been pioneers in every
state from Maryland to Illinois, and
when thirteen years old the deceased
accompanied his father across the
plains to Colorado and thence to Cal
ifornia. That was in 1S49.
Passing through Colorado on this
trip, the father was favorably i'm
pressed with the country. On their
return from California, where fortune
had favored them, they stopped a few
miles north of Denver and laid out the
town of Boulder. Captain AIKEN cut
the first tree on the site of Boulder,
the stump of which is now a historical
relic in the Boulder courthouse.
Charles AIKEN was born in Rock
ford, Illinois, in 1886. At the age of
eight years he moved with his family
into Missouri. On the return from
California. Captain AIKEN Influenced a
number of settlers there to accompany
him, and the first pioneers from the
Missouri valley pushed westward to
Colorado.

"UNkNOWN ARMY" Nj
652, ,488
Uncle Sans Pension Roll Runs Up
Into the Thousands


Washington.-"The unknown army
has been the subject of much contro-
versy in discussing the forces en-
gagged in the civil war;" said Com
missioner of Pensions Warner in
speaking OF the pension roll, but
never until the McCumber service pen
sion bill became law was there a
means for determining anything about
Its extent
"The unknown army has come to be
SO called largely because its members
did not apply for pensions. This they
did not do on account of the various
reasons OF delicacy, pride or indiffer-
ence, but most of these causes have
been removed by the passage of the
service law, and most of the un-
knowns, those who have never hereto
fore asked for pensions, are coming
to the front.
Il think everybody will be surprised
at the limited number there are of
them. So far there have been about
2S0, 900 applications under the new law
but OF these only little over one per
cent are in the shape of the original
applications, or, in other words, appli-
cations of the hitherto unknown possi-
BILE pension claimants. Certainly the
entire number will not exceed 5000
The other 275,000 applications are all
for increase, and were made by men
whose names have been upon the rolls
in the past"
Commissioner Warner is of the opin-
lon that the great bulk of applications
on account of the McCumber law have
been received When the law first
went into effect the applications were
received in enormous quantities, as
many as 10000 coming in one day
The number has now fallen to about
1000 day, and is rapidly diminishing
The receipt of SO many applications
has occasioned corresponding in
crease of labor in the office, but by
shifting the clerical force to meet the
especial demands, it has not been
found necessary to augment the list
OF employees.
The records of the pension office
show that 1851 of the civil war pen
sioners died in February, but there are
still 652,4SS Of them left upon the pen
sion rolls.

Breaks silence of Fourteen Years.

Chicago.-A dispatch to the Record,
Herald from Charlotte. Michigan,
says:
Silas Compton, aged seventy, was ar
rested at Athens, Pennsylvania, yes
terday, according to dispatches from
that city, charged with the murder Of
William Lampman of Grand Lodge,
Michigan, November IA, 1892. The
warrant is based on an affidavit made
by John Butcher. who has served four
teen years on a life sentence at the
Jackson prison for the crime.
Butcher saws he has kept silent all
these years to protect his brothers.
Frank and John, farmers, who, he
claims, were in the plot with Compton
to rob the old man, who was rich and
regarded as misery. He insists Comp
ton was the slayer.
On the day of his arrest, John
Butcher made a confession, in which
he said he did the killing alone, but af-
terward denied the admission.
Lampman lived alone In the edge OF
town; was seventy-eight years old and
pensioner. His skull was battered
in and pair of overalls were used to
choke him to death.

largely used by the Spaniards instead
of olive oil, and the peanut competes
with the olive at the oil-crushers. The

whether or not the Spanish dealers
sell the peanut oil as olive oil. They
may be more scrupulous in their trade

store Water for Colorado Ranchmen

Denver.-The efficiency of all the
vast system of irrigation works in Col
orado and the West in general will be
vastly increased, the science of irriga-
tion be made even more perfect, and
all chance in the raising of crops by ir-
rigation be absolutely eliminated by n
simple little step which the United
States government is about to take.
AS part of the reclamation service,
flood forecasting stations are being es-
tablished along all the principal riv-
ers from which water for irrigation is
being drawn. f. H. Brandenburg,
chief of the Weather Bureau in this
city. is now travelling along the water
shed of the Colorado river, from the
headwaters in this state to The mouth
OF the stream below Yuma, looking for
suitable locations at which the food
forecastiDg stations are to be placed
For the benefit of the farmer who de-
pends on rain the present Weather Bu
reau system was primarily started, for
that and the mariner on the high seas,
who depends equally OH the whims of
the elements. The rain farmer wants
to know when the dry breeze will
come, when the period of drought or
the period of wet. According to what
he is led to expect. he takes precau-
tions. The unc9unted millions that
have been saved by the service to the
American farmers are beyond esti-
mate, but it is certain that the bureau
has made of farming in the rain belt a
much less precarious industry.
The irrigation farmer is generally
held to depend much less on the whims
of the elements. He draws his supply
of water from the running streams, and
this supply can be reckoned on with
much more certainty than the rains.
But with the develc pment of irrigation
an element of uncertainty has en-
tered.
The irrigationist cannot tell when
the foods will como. Often he is com
PEELED to see millions of cubic feet of
water rush by him before he can pre-
pare his reservoir to receive the mois-
ture which he is certain he will need
later There is a certain amont of wa
ter which can always be depended on
to run regularly in the streams, and as
long as the bitches used only this reg
ular flow there was no uncertainty.
