A WAVE OF PROSPERITY.
Colorado Is Entering Upon Even
Brighter DAYS.

Denver.-Colorado is on the crest of
wave. of prosperity which has not
been equaled in years, according to
the statements of the officials of tho
three principal Colorado roads. The
best index to the conditions of state
or country Is considered the earnings
of the Denver C Rio Grande, the Colo
rado Midland and the Colorado G.
Southern, which were made public this
morning shows an increase of about
twenty per cent. over what they were
a year ago.
The Denver & Rio Grande for May
showed net increase of S54,535 over
the earnings for the same month u
year ago and the increase for the
eleven months is equal in proportion,
being s372,473 more for the eleven
months ending June 1st than for the
Same period of time last year.
The Colorado Midland showed a net
Increase for May of s6,673 over May a
year ago. The increase for the eleven
months was s50,243. The total receipts
nr the Midland for May were $198,939
and the expenses and taxes were S153,-
665. May year ago the gross receipts
were $1S0,431 and the expenses and
taxes were s141,S30.
The Denver & Rio Grande total re-
ceipts for May were 81 1,S4S,30S and the
expenses S1,140,452 and for the same
month last year the gross receipts were
STOP, ,4S2 and expenses s1,049,161.
The Colorado & Southern statement
has been made up and forwarded to
New York but not yet made public. 1t
was stated, however, that when issued
1t would show that the business of the
road for May had increased twenty per
cent. over what 1t was a year ago.
There is nothing abnormal what
ever about the increases" said one of
fetal. 1T simply shows that the state
is enjoying the greatest prosperity it
has had in years. There is no special
reason for it except that the people are
making and spending more money and
there is an abundant market for every
thing produced within the state. There
have been no strikes or labor disturb
ences of any extent and the conditions
have been favorable for a good in
crease. We are also better equipped
for handling the increase in business
| than we were a few years ago, and this
has enabled all producers to market
their output. look for the prosperity
10 continue"
1t was further stated that the en-
tire country showed almost the same
condition OF affairs. Out of all of the
leading roads of the country there were
| only three that showed a loss during
May over the business done during the
fame time last year, and these wers
the results of local conditions.

ming an Indian trading store for sew
eral years, and 1t was reported that he
had gone East. but it now transpires
that he has not turned up in the East,
nor has it been discovered that he took
the train anywhere.
He was an eccentric man, and al
though a recognized millionaire, spent
most of his time among the Navajos.
1t is reported here that some of the
Navajos claim he was murdered and
that some Indians know where he Ia
buried
Oficeers are working on the case.
but as Pueblo Bonita is sixty miles
from the railroad out in the desert,
there are many stories told of the pc.
culiar dealing of the Hyde exploring
expedition, which few years ago did
a tremendous business in Navajo
blankets and Indian curios here from
1901 to 1908.
Tho missing Hyde was at the head
of this enterprise and great many
thousand dollars was lost. Fred q.
Hyde, Jr., the missing man, and Bah.

heirs of the great Babbitt estate that
was built out OF the soap manufactur.

Snow Melting on Planet Mars.

Flagstaff, Ariz.-The director of thu
Lowell observatory has this to say Of
the results of the observations of the
planet Mars:
1.-THE opposition has been productive
of increased knowledge of the planets
constitution by the revelation of de.
tails hitherto unseen. This, while ex.
tending our acquaintance with tha
Planet, has been completely corrobora.
tive of what had previously been
learned there.
"The southern polar cap is now In
process of melting, and the northern
one of making. Although about the
same size at the present moment, the
aspect of the two is different. In this
connection is significant the detection
of difference in their color, while tho
south pole cap is white, with faint
yellcwish unge, the north pole cap is
distinctly blush.
"This difference in hue is that which
freshly fallen snow on new-made ice
would present as compared with tha;
which has long been subjected to the
weather and dust. The observation Is
therefore confirmatory of what has
again and again been stated of the sIb.
stance composing them.
"The canals proper to this season o.
the Marian year have been seen in
due course and some new faint ones
discovered.
'As to the photographs of the planet
Mr.. Lampland has already secured
prints exceeding in definiteness of de.
tail those secured at the last opposi.
ton. They have been enlarged with a
view to publication"
