GRAND JUNCTION WON
ON A CLOSE SCORE

One of the best and most interesting
games of baseball ever played In
Glenwood Springs occurred yesterday
afternoon between Glenwood's strong
and the fast team from
this city.
At the conclusion of the exciting
contest the score stood to in Ia
vor of Grand Junction.
1t was a clean-played game and
the big crowd that was in attendance
got its moneys worth all right.
The Glenwood boys were so conf
dent of beating the Grand Junction
lads that the defeat they are called
upon to stand rests heavily upon
them. They seemed willing for n
time to bet all kinds of money on
themselves but some who bet are
the poorer today.
The score by innings was as fol-
lows:
Grand Junction 5000 0 %
Glenwood ......1 0 0 0 0 0 o.
Sandusky. the new pitcher on the
Grand Junction team, did magnificent
work yesterday afternoon. He more
than measured up to the expectations
Carson on first for the home team
won a world of admiration by his
clever work.
The Glenwood boys put up good
game all the way through but the
home team had them bested. 1t was
the best game the Grand Junction
boys have played this season.

BECAUSE UGLY
SHE WAS KILLED

Vienna, July 15.-Because she was
so ugly that nobody would marry
her, a peasant named Johann Doro-
siewicz, living at Neu Sandec, Poland,
has murdered his only daughter.
The girl, who was is years old,
seems to have been so remarkably
unpreposessing that the village
swains would not be seen in her COM
pany.
Fearful of having her forever on
his hands, Dorosiewicz, in a fit of
rage, strangled her. A sympathetic
jury found him guilty of manslaugh-
ter, and the court sentenced him to
three years hard labor.

WHAT is DUST?

Man is but highly organ

true. But do you know what

We see the marvellous meta

! Why then should not dust

The Plateau Voice says that a few
weeks ago a Collbran man made a
discovery which sheds some light on
the habits of the pinon bird. While
walking through the thick woods one
day. Harvey Bertholf, our r. f. d.
man, saw pinon bird fly out from
a hole in the leaves almost at his
feet. Curiosity prompted him to stop
and investigate and upon digging
back about eighteen inches through
the leaves and mold he came upon
little fiat nest, composed chiefly of
horse hair. in which were four more
than half-grown pinon squads. Ap-
preciating that this find was of a
very unusual nature. Mr.. Bertholf
brought the nest into town, where
the birds were examined by dozens of
people all of whom agreed that they
were unmistkably pinon bird nest
lings.
For their size, the birds were very
stupid and quiet and in all probabili-
ty would have been full-hedged and
scarcely to be distinguished from old
birds, before the mother bird would
have taken them from their hidden
retreat. There is little wonder that
the nesting place of this well-known
bird has so long escaped discovery.
The bird is naturally shy, and builds
its nest in the deepest forest. And
to make its retreat the more secure
from lnquisitive eyes, it burrows a
foot or two under the leaf mold,
where the mouth of the leaf burrow
is hidden in debris-the last place a
scientist, or anyone else who is ac-
customed to seeing birds nests in
their normal position, would think
of looking.
The young birds Mr.. Bertholf
found were given into the care of o.
B. Coakley's son, Judge" who has
fed them with such good results that
all four are alive and fat, and as
gentle as possible.

German Bankers Fail; 1850, 900.

The banking firm of Halter, Soehle
& Co., one of the Oldest and reputed
one of the strongest private firms in
Germany failed at Hamburg, Thurs
day with Liabilities estimated at ST.
100000
The crash OF this firm is the big
gest bank failure in Grmany since tbs
famous failure of the Leipziger bank
in June, 1901. The assets of the firm
have not yet been ascertained, but in
banking circles the capital OF the
partners is declared TO be $2,250,000.
Nearly all the joint stock and pri-
vate banks in Hamburg are affected
in varying degrees by the failure but
a number OF them say their claims
are adequately secured. Among the
firms liabilities are acceptances for
$3,75O,OOO The largest amount held
by any individual house seem to be
$4,000 in the hands of tie Vereins
bank
The difficulties OF the firm arose
chiefly from its connection with a
mining company at Teplitz, Bohemia,
in which much capital was locked up
In addition the firm had interests in
several coal mines in Austria and was
concerned in several real estate ven
lures Near Vienna it had establish
ed so-called "caumacite" works, de-
signed to exploit new method OF de-
veloping unusually high temperatures
in furnaces. In connection with this
enterprise was glass factory.
1t is also declared that Halter,
Soehle & Co. had put considerable
sums in real estate mortgages. All
these assets are hard TO convert into
cash without heavy loss, but the
bankers holding the paper of the
firm believe the liabilities probably
can be met If liquidation is not TOO
much hurried.
Halter, Soehle & Co. had been in
existence for seveny-seven years and
ranked as one of Hamburg's old pa
trician houses 1t had for long en-
joyed high reputation and its paper
was everywhere regarded as gilt
edged and willingly discounted. Lat
terly, however, the credit of the
house has been on a less assured bas-
10.
The failure created panicky con-
dit:on on the boerse and various SEN
sational rumors were in circulation.
According to one report, Halter,
Soehle & Co. were heavily hit by
the fall in coppers and affected by the
difficulties of Otto Heinze & Co. in
New York, but this apparently is
mistake.

the worlds record price paid We'd
nesday night at Chicago, for single
ear of corr.
The ear, Boone county white, y
was knocked down to the highest

He has taken more prizes than any
other man in the show, prizes
amounting TO nearly $4,000, including
a Texas farm He raised it on thr-
teen acres of land The ear was TAX
en- from one of ten that took the
sweepstakes in their class.
Mr.. Clore did not have everything
his own way in the bidding He start
ed it at $50 and it was run up rapidly.
The auction was conducted by Prof
J. w. Jones, one of the instructors
at the Iowa State Agricultural Col
lege. When Mr.. Clore reached s135
bid Mr. Jones invited him TO the
platform in response TO cheers from
the audience
IL can't bear to Sc. that ear go TO
anybody else said Mr.. Clore, and
the audience marveled to hear the
tones of the big mans voice tremble.
Its part of my life work, folks. I've
been raising that corn for the last fiji
teen years. and if | lose it it's like
losing a friend"

To Unseat Delegates.

With the Philippine assembly only
a few days old, duels are already
threatened as result of trouble be-
tween Nationalists and Radical mem
bers Several challenges are said to
have been exchanged.
That the seventeen delegates
against whom contests have been
commenced will lose their seats
seems certain. Part of the number
are attacked on the ground OF cleo
ton irregularities; the others on the
accusation that they are revolutions
aries and as such unfit TO act as leg
islators for the islands.
The Nationalist profess them
selves well pleased with Governor
General Smiths message; but the
Radicals declare its assertions ridicu-
lous. The message read Thursday,
takes credit to the United States for
the withdrawal of troops Immediately
following the Instructions suppress
sion and for the progress the islands
are said to have made, under Ameri-
can rule.

Battleships Do Best Firing in the
History of the Navy.

The navy department at Washing
ton Thursday made public a synopsis
OF the report of the target practice
by the battleships of the Atlantic
fleet under battle conditions. The re-
suits were the best ever attained In
the navy under similar conditions.
The statement follows:
The older ships tAlabama and
Kearsage classes) began firing at
about 5000 yards co statute miles)
and finished about 1000 yards a
miles,. The Maine and Virginia
classes fired at from about $500 to
$500 yards and the Connecticut class
ait from about 7,40O TO 5000 yards
(5.3 miles). The ships steamed past
the target and opened fire two minu-
ties after the target was abeam and
continued firing for eight minutes
with all guns.
The percentages were surprisingly
large and may be summarized as fol-
lows:
All IL inch and 13 inch guns av-
eraged 3O7 per cent. of hits, inch
guns averaged 81 per cent. and inch.
inch. and I inch averaged 16 per
cent. Out OF twelve battleships FIR
ing but three made low scores, less
than Is per cent, with II inch and 13
inch guns. The remaining nine ships
made from % to 67 per cent OF hits.
With inch guns three ships made
from to 16 per cent, the remainder
making from 81 TO 81 per cent.
THE smaller guns C. inch, etc.)
were fired at the same range as the
heavy guns, and the results showed
that these guns are of practically no
use as battle weapons at such
ranges"

Mexicans Who Killed Laporte Man
to be Shot.

The three leaders OF the gang of
robbers who recently murdered Geo.
w Rose. well-known American
mining man of Guanajuato, are to be
shot for the crime Mr.. Rose went TO
Mexico from Laporte few years ago
He was a prominent member of the
American colony in Guanajuato, and
his friends feel grateful to the Mexi
can authorities who SO quickly sue
ceeded in running down the GRIMM
ais and bringing them to justice.
Mrs. Rose, wife of the murdered
man, was also stabbed six times at
the time the fatal attack was made
upon her husband She is recovering
from the wounds, although it was
thought for a time that they would
prove fatal
The crime was the most shocking
ever perpetrated in Guanajuato 1t
was planned by woman, former
servant of the Rose family. She gave
the location of the rooms OF the
house and the places where it was be-
lieved money was kept TO Esteban
Rangel, Cirilo Rico and Julio Nieto,
the men who were to commit the rob-
berry. The gang also took into its
confidence two other women. Gaia
rina Mendez and Vincente Reyes.
The Santillan woman, because of
her | art in divulging the information
concerning the house and in planning
the robbery, was relieved from taking
any actual part in the crime. The
other two women were delegated to
watch in front of the house while
the robbery was in progress and to
warn the men inside If the police
should appear upon the scene. The
house is surrounded by high stone
wall The three men scaled this wall
and entered the house. They ran
sacked the lower rooms and had en-
tered the sleeping apartment of Mr.
and Mrs. Rose DIR. Rose was awak-
enei by the noise made by the intru-
ders and jumped out of bed to attack
them. The men fell upon him and
stabbed HIM eight times, inflicting
wounds which caused his death al
most Immediately Mrs. Rose was
then attacked and stabbed six times
She was then left lying upon the bed
for dead The robbers then left the
house. carrying the valuables they
had collected with them.
Mrs. Rose regained consciousness
and gave the ALARM. The local au-
thorities were prompt TO act. Gov
ernor Joaquin Oregon Gonzales, the
chief executive of the State, took per-
sonal charge of the case. He sent
armed men to guard all of the high
ways leading out of the town, and all
suspicious characters were placed un-
der arrest and closely examined Sus-
picion pointed TO the Santillan woman
because she had formerly worked for
merly worked for the family and was
discharged She was arrested and,
after certain pressure had been
brought TO bear upon her, She made a
confession, in which she betrayed
the other members of the gang Their
arrests soon followed. The several
members OF the gang have confessed
to the part they took III the crime,
and the death penalty will soon be
imposed upon the men for the actual
murder of Mr. Rose. The women will
likely be sentenced to long terms of
imprisonment.
