10000 Recruits Needed.

Denver.-"1 consider the action of
the Navy Department in sending Il
fleet to the Pacific at this time as
significant one," said Lieutenant Cora
mander D. V. Fl. Allen of the Denver
recruiting office of the navy. The
trip is long one and very hard on
tally rounding Cape Horn. The depart
Elent would hardly go to the great ex-
ense entailed in such a manuever
without some strong incentive | be-
lieve the Department of State is behind
the move
"The navy needs men at every re-
cruiting office and efforts are being
made TO get them. We hope to add
10000 men to the sea force as soon as
possible"
When asked what he thought Of n
war with Japan, he said:
mo, 1t wouldn't be like the one with
the Spaniards. They were afraid 10
come out into the open and fight us
and we had to smoke them out The
Japanese would come out all at once
and one battle would end it"
The same spirit was evinced by
OF the Papanese as fighters. They
have got too much sense to so to war
with us" said one. 1T would be easy
work for the United States. They are
not in our class"
All of the men, while scoffing at the
possibility of a war with Japan. are
eager to take part in it if one SHOULD
come to pass.

DRIVES IN MORTAL AGONY.
With Flesh Dropping from Hands E. J.
Cook Speeds for Succor.

Grand junction, Colo.-Spartan grit,
and anxiety for his suffering wife, tri-
umphed over the most acute agony
this morning when E. j. Cook of Green
River, after rescuing his wife from GER
tain death in gasoline explosion, and
being himself severely burned in the
act, rushed to his automobile, and
while fragments of flesh dropped from
his hands, cranked his machine and
sped at express train speed for a ply
sician
Cook is the cashier of the Green
River Bank and well known in business
and financial circles here.
The accident happened while Mrs
Cook was preparing to start fire for
the morning meal. In order to get a
| quicker flame in the stove she picked
up a can which she supposed con-
| tanned kerosene, but which was filled
| with gasoline. No sooner did the vola-
| tile fluid strike the flames than the ex-
plosion occurred, Mrs. Cook receiving
| the full force of the combustion. The
flames rapidly enveloped the upper
| part of her body, quickly destroying
her clothing and burning her breast,
shoulders and arms almost to crisp.
The explosion aroused her husband,
who, rushing to her assistance, beat
out the flames with his bare hands.
This done, and unmindful of his own
severe injuries, he hurried to put his
auto into commission for an emer-
gency run to the nearest physician. AS
he cranked the machine several pieces
of cooked flesh were twisted from his
handS, yet not groan escaped his
lips. Suffering intense agony he
jumped into the car and raced at full
speed for medical assistance Receiv-
ing temporary alienation at the doc
tors house. Mr.. Cook again took the
wheel and hurried the physician to the
side of his suffering wife. Mrs. Cook
is in critical condition.

servant question existed in Goethe's
time, and quotes Therese as saying to
her guest invited TO dinner: My cook
has Just run away at most inoppor-
tune time. My man has mangled his
hand and l had to prepare all myself
Nothing bothers one nowadays more
than servants. No one will serve. not
even themselves" The difference in
this twentieth century is that the
TheHeses do not know how to act as
substitutes for the missing cook, or if
they do know, refuse to act. They
prefer to go out to their meals"

FLEETS RUSHED TO PACIFIC
Great War Event of Twentieth Century
Probably Occupy Rim Of Vast
Pacific Saucer.

London.-The Daily Mail in an edi-
torial article on the Japanese-Ameri-
can situation says:
around the immense area of the
Pacific ocean the embattled nations
c: the world are gathering as the ma
tons gathered around the Mediterra.
mean 1000 years ago. Careful observ.
crs universally will agree that the great
events of the twentieth century prob.
ably will be occupied within the rim of
this vast saucer
War between Japan and America is
| almost unthinkable. We believe the
| intentions of the statesmen of both
| countries to be profoundly pacific, and
| that the incidents at San Francisco are
| not responsible for the movements of
the American fleet
| Japan commenced the war with
Russia, without previous decision, by
| destroying half the Russian fleet. Such
move was very effective the first
time it was performed, and henceforth
no nation will wait for a formal decla-
ration of war, but will be ready to
strike while there are yet no signs OF
q diplomatic rupture.
The cautious and wise statesmen
directing American policy are not vio-
iating prudence in deciding to concen-
trate their forces in the region where
the eye can detect the menace on the
obscure horizon"
Tokio.-The Asahi prints an inter.
ii ~ with an influential Japanese ma
val expert, who says:
1T would be improper to infer a
demonstration in the transfer of the
American fleet to the Pacific. This
movement is part of a prearrangel
| plan and Is result Of the constant
growth of the American navy and the
| increasing importance of Pacific inter
| ests from the strategic need No sig
| nlficance can be attached unless ii.
| least thirty ships have been trans
ierred tC the Pacific"
The Asahi also publishes an editorial
article setting forth the same views. 1t
! egrets the American fleet can not visit
| assert her sincerity and reciprpcate
| iue naval hospitality extended to the
visiting Japanese warships at James
| town. The paper also urges the abro-
| cation of article II of the existing COM
lnercial treaty in order to put an end
| 10 the cause of the anti-Japanese feel
| ing at San Francisco.
Almost all the newspapers treat the
rnatter with calmness, finding it is
natural for the United States to redis-
| tribute its naval forces as result of
its imperial policy. They, too, gener-
ally express regret that it will be i'm
| possible for Japan to extend hospitality
| to the American officers in return for
| that shown the Japanese officers az
Jamestown.
The Asahi is an independent news-
| paper, popular among all classes, and
mas probably the widest circulation in
| Japan.

GOOD FENCES MAKE GOOD NElcHsoRs.

Mr. Careless is real good natured man.
generally but he hates all his neighbors and his
nelghbors don't feel kindly toward him.
Not that he meant any harm toward them or they
toward him, but he didn't keep his fences up.
Mrs. Careless has lot of chickens Mrs Iones lives in
the farmhouse the road and started some flower
beds IN front OF her house a year ago Mrs Carelesss
chickens weren't kept in the chicken yard she often left
the door open and Mr. Careless didn't Get time TO keen
the holes stopped. SO it didn't make much difference
whether the door was open or not So the chickanc
scratched up Mrs Jones's flower beds. Mrs.
Jones sent Johnny drive them off and TO ask Mrs
Careless please to keep her chickens shut up Mrs
careless sad: ooh are those plagued chickens out
agan and then forgot about it, Mrs ZONES fixed mn
her flower beds the best she could and hoped for the
best but next week the chickens came in and ,tined
them again Johnny Jones killed two of the chickens
with his sing-shot and threw them out on the road
Somebody told Mrs. Careless and she got Mr. Careless
to x up the chicken yard little so the chickens didn't
get out again Tor month, but Mrs Careless hasn't
spoken to Mrs. Jones since
MI. Jones and Mr. Careless had always been pretty
good friends. But last year Mr. Jones put in some nice
crops OF corn and wheat and planted out fine little
orchard Mr.. Careless thought he would try raising
hogs and cattle SO he got his stock and put the
cattle IN the field and the pigs the old pen that hadn't
been hxed up for some years lust after the little trees
IN Joness orchard had gotten good start the hogs
got out one bright warm day when Mr. ZONES was of
IN the further field over the HILL and rooted up about
halt OF the trees and the dried in the sun so that
the trees were killed. When Jones came home
he felt pretty mad but didn't say much Mr. Careless
was sorry about it and patched up his pig pen
Along in the summer Joness corn was getting
along hne Careless's cattle broke thru bad
place in the fence and spent half day in Ioness
cornheld before Johnny saw them and drove them out
That was too much for Jones' He vowed he'd have
the law on Careless. Careless said: "WeI if Iones
wants TO be mean about 1t III fight him thru all the
courts 1t 1t takes my last cent And so they are at it.
and the lawyers are getting rich, and Careless
Is getting poor and threatens to shoot Jones if he
