\ diamond robbery at Longmont.
in which Mrs. T. NJ. Callahan, sister
Of Mrs. c. Fl. Ramsay, of this city
was the victim, has been sharing
honors with the Thaw trial in the
amount of of space devoted to 1t In
the Denver dailies. Mrs. Callahan's S
room was entered while she slept.
and about $1,000 worth Of jewelry
stolen. The point that gave the
yellowsn their chance was the fact
that Mrs. Callahan was in the habit
Of carrying her jewels on her person
in small chamois bag, when she
retired.
There is no doubt about the rob-
berry, but it did not occur as it has
been reported. The robber is sup
posed to have administered an anaes-
thetic to the sleeper to facilitate his
getting away with the jewels.

Windsor Has Problem.

Windsor's Russian problem IS
s,rstbins that must call for serious
5rsidsration in the near future. At
,re present time there are probably
,,s,seen six and seven hundred peo-
MIA Of that nationality whose homes
ar in this corporation. and more
are coming on every train. Perhaps
the first thing along this line that
will have to be looked after Is the
schooling of the horde of Russian
children 1t may seems tough
deposition for the taxpayers OF TINS
district to be obliged TO pay for the
silcation of this foreign element.
Al the same time 1t must be done,
and 1t can be said of the RuIssans
-Hat they become Taxpayers, In a
small way to be sure, very soon alter
coming into community. Inc
school facilities of Windsor, greatly
increased as they have been, are en-
,irely inadequate to care for the
pupils who are seeking an education.
1t looks as though the school board
has work cut out for several years

Starch Factories Close.

Both Of the starch factories have
closed for the season, the Greeley
Starch and Potato company's factory
making 800 tons of starch from Gull
potatoes and the Greeley Ice and
Starch company's factory making 100
tons, total of 960 tons for the sea-
son. While the run has not been q
large one, the season has been fairly
successful, and about $780, has
been paid out for Gull stock that
might otherwise have gone to waste
Most of the starch has teen sold.
Several improvements will be
made in the factory north of the city
for next season. among them a steam
press for squeezing the moisture out
of the pulp, to make stock feed. 1t
Is claimed that stock will do as we'll
on potato pulp as upon beet pulp, IL
1T is handled little differently. 1t
was intended to have fed a bunch of
steers at this factory the past season,
but some delay In making the neces-
sary arrangements made this imprac-
ticable.

A GIGANTIC PROJECT
Proposition to Dam Platte River
for Irrigation

Frank ]. Macarty, of Denver, Is
again working on the Wildcat reser.
voir project, and for some time has
had three different surveying parties
In the field securing data to be laid
before eastern capitalists.
The project is perhaps the largest
ever attempted in Colorado. even
on paper. 1t contemplates the con-
struction of huge dam across the
entire Platte river valley at Wildcat
mountain. four miles north Of Platte
willie. This dam would be two and
q half miles long aud not less than
ninety feet high. 1t would back up
the water of the Platte distance of
six miles, and up the St. Vrain creek
about twelve miles. 1t is estimated
that nearly $1,000, 600 worth of good
farm land would be covered with the
reservoir site. The dam itself would
cost not less than %, 500, 600, and the
outlet bitches that would cover the
land clear to Roggen, would probably
cost another 81, 900, COO.
Mr.. Macarty states firmly that he
will carry out the project, and will
start east in few days to lay his
plans, with the reports OF his engi-
neers before eastern financiers.

WEAK KIDNEYS MAKE WEAK
BODIES
Kidney Diseases Cause Half the Com
mon Aches and Ills of Greelev
People

As one weak link weakens a chain
50 weak kidneys weaken the whole
body and hasten the final breaking
down.
Overwork, strains, colds and other
causes iniure the kidneys, and when
their activity is lessened the whole
body suffers from the excess of uric
poison circulated In the blood.
Aches and pains and languor and
urinary Ills come, ana there is an
lever-increasing tendency towards
diabetes aud fatal Bright's disease.
There is no real help for the sufferer
except kidney help.
Doan's Kidney Pills act directly
on the kidneys and cure every kidney
Ill. Greeley cures are the proof.
August Anderson, living at 1926
Thirteenth street, Greeley, Colo.
says: eve consider Doan's kidney
Pills an Indispensable remedy for

FROM FAR AUSTRALIA
For Purpose of Our Educational
Advantages

Fred Tuck and his sister, Clara,
arrived in Greeley early last Sunday
morning from Rock Hampton,
Queensland, Australia.
They had quite an eventful trip,
having been enrdute since February
10. They arrived In Sydney five
days later and had to wait there FIVE
weeks for vessel which was delayed
. from Japan. They sailed March ls
on the Ventura, and arrived at San
Francisco April II. They visited
Auckland, New Zealand, Pago Pago
harbor, in the Samoan Islands, and
Honolulu on the way.
Mr.. Tuck is plumber and has
been in the employ of the govern
ment at northampton several years.
They expect to make this their home.
Their two brothers, Albert and
Ernest. are in Greeley attending
high school. Albert has been here
four years and Ernest came year
ago. Mr.. Tuck says our educational
advantages are far ahead of those in
Australia and that one must be al
most millionaire in order to get a
college education there. That was
one Of the principal reasons why the
family came to Greeley. Mrs. Tuck
and four other children are still in
Australia but expect to come to
Greeley when they can dispose of
their property there.
A four years drouth all over Aus
tralia was broken about a year ago
and wave Of prosperity is now pass
ing over the country. During the
drouth property deprecated and itwas
almost impossible to dispose of any,
thing at its real value.

They are much pleased with Greeley.
