Washington.-There are stored in

Baltby building, in the old car barns
and in two rented warehouses more
than $500 tons of documents and re
ports-enough 10 fill freight train more
than three miles long. according t.
Victor l.. Eickett. ss cretary of the
printing investigation commission ap-
pointed two years ago. In addition to
its own storage capacity, the govern
mont is paying sls.500 d year in rent
ais. A large proportion o: these Gocu-
ments are oil solete.
The joint committee on printing cut
eff this year II >rly million volumes
of the concre ssional printing alone
and in this the committee only touched
the waste which was piling up in the

BATHING IN THE DEAD SEA.
Dy No Means a Pleasure, According
to One Traveller.

mo sooner has one plunged irto
the water than one is whipped of
one's feet and goes bobbing helplessly
about like wretched cork" says Rev.
Haskell Smith of bathing in the Dead
sea. In the effort to regain ones
footing and to get back to shore, ones
teet and shins are barked by the
Jagged stones and pebbles, and when
at length one does emerge from its
treacherous bosom. with the lower
limbs bleeding and torn. one becomes
aware of a horrible tingling and burn
Ing sensation in eyes. ears, nostrils,
mouth and almost every pore of the
skin, from the brine and bitumen
which have penetrated everywhere.
UNLESS great care is taken the
bather in the Dead sea is liable to an
eruption, which breaks out all over
his body, and which is commonly
known as the Dead sea RASH The
best antidote to this is to hurry across
as quickly as possible to the river Jor.
dan and take a second plunge therein.
The soft and muddy waters of that
sacred but dirty stream will effectual-
ly remove the salt that has incrusted

Crops Looking Fine.

Denver-Lari men along Seven.
tcenth street were wearing the smile
that won't come off last week, and there
Is every reason to believe the smile
will be upon their faces for many
months to come. The cause is that the
demand for land shows steady in
crease with every indication of YER
table boom within two months.
Crops in Eastern Colorado are all
that could be desired. The farmers
and homesteaders that went into the
country last fall and last spring went
in to-work. not play, and they put
in great crops that have now pro-
crossed so far that ii is known that
the harvest this year will be enormous
The socalled desert has been trans
formed into a garden, and the result
Is that the demand for land is some
thing unprecedented
While prices are practically the
same as two months ago. yet there is
marked stiffening in values AMI land
men generally believe that the prices
will increase from 81 to 50 per acre
within three months. There is a
promised exodus of Eastern people to
Eastern Colorado. and from inquiries
received at Colorado Land headquart-
ers there will be a heavy demand for
land on the part of tourists this sum-
mer. Tourists are inquiring about
land more than ever before, and al
ready Colorado Land headquarters re-
ports several big sales have been made
to prospective settlers.
The syndicate plan of buying land is
meeting with decided favor. That is
where several men go into pool and
buy land. thus reducing the cost to
each. 1t is usually called the Los An
geles scheme" because it originated
there. and had much TO do with the
phenomenal growth of that city.
Wheat is looking fine around Byers
and other places in Eastern Colorado.
and so. too, are cats. rye, barley, spells
and other crops. Farmers have fin
ished their first stand of alfalfa and
the second cutting will be on in about
three weeks. The alfalfa was never
better The corn crop will be one of
the surprises this fall. and is declared
to be equal to that raised in Nebraska.

Placer Company Asks Damages From
Ore Treating Mill Owners.

Denver.-Involving questions that
are of importance to mining men in
Colorado and elsewhere, a suit has
been instituted in the United States
Circuit Court by Gustave A. Schwab
Of New York, trustee of the Keystone
Hydraulic Mining Company, against
the Smuggler-Union, the Tomboy and
the Liberty Bell companies of San
Miguel county. Schwab seeks an in
junction restraining the defendants
from dumping tailings from their mills
Into the north fork of the San Miguel
river to the entire use of whose water
The plaintiff claims right for the COM
pany which he represents. The debris.
1t is alleged, is carried by the stream
10 the keystone placer claims and de-
stroys the entire value of the water
tight and machinery of the company
10 an amount not less than 100000
According to the complaint, the
,laims mentioned were originally
owned by the Keystone Hydraulic
Company, which gave deed of mort
rage for the property to the American
trust Company. Bonds were issued to
over the mortgage to Schwab as trus-
zee of other stockholders. In 1906,
foreclosure proceediDys were institute
I'd in court and the property sold to
lchwab, who was the highe st bidder
md was still acting in the capacity OF
.rustee for the bondholders. The deed
If sale transferred TO him included the
light of extensive use of the North
Fork stream which runs on the side
4 the mining claims and is necessary
i0r placer mining. To secure further
feneflt from the water and to keep
! clear from dumpings, two reservoirs
were constructed under Schwab's SUI
pervision at the upper part of the
property, which store the water for
n whole placer season. From these
run pipes and fumes. 1t is also stated
that the stockholders intend later on
10 establish an electric power plant
10 supply surrounding districts, be-
cause of the abundant means of gen
Grating power at their disposal.
Above the Keystone claims, the
complaint states, the defendant com
panies operate mills for the treatment
Of ore. They are aware. it is said.
that silica and other waste matter is
from these into the North
Fork and carried to the keystone
reservoirs, the very thing which the
plaintiff has tried 10 avoid. The tail
ings dumped daily into the river. II
is alleged, reach 500 pounds in the
winter and l,200 ponds the rest of
the year. There are now, according
to the complaint, $4,000 cubic yards
in the upper reservoir and 10000 GU
bic yards in the lower one. Not only
does the debris ruin the value of the
property and the usa of the hydraulic
machinery. the plaintiff AYERS. bur
makes it impossible to erect the cleo
trio power plant which would have
brought in considerable revenue.
That complaints made to the defend
arts have been ignored is also
charged
