Bold Robbery at Florence.

Florence, Colo.-Robbers dynamited
che safe in the Williamsburg postoffice,
which is located in the same building
as the A. P. Easton grocery and gen.
eral merchandise store. Two hundred
dollars in cash and a number of valu-
able papers were taken, together with
quantity of postage stamps.
T. w. Morgan, the postmaster. who
sleeps in an adjoining house, heard a
rumbling noise and was thrown from
bed by the explosion. Before he could
get to the scene the burglars had es-
capped by the rear door. The door of
the safe was blown from its hinges and
thrown six feet, striking the door of
a booth used in the store in the cloth
ing department, entirely demolishing
the booth and also a stove which stood
ten feet from the safe. No clew of the
perpetrators of the act have been
found, but Sheriff Esser has been
called upon to furnish bloodhounds to
take the trail of the criminals.

Ranch Sold for $4,000.

The great Charles B. Rhodes ranch
at Deer Trail was sold by Colorado
Land Headquarters, through the Co
lonial Securities Company, to Knee
land Dockstaeder of Lenox, Iowa. The
ranch comprises $1,000 acres CT lana
and is one of the largest and finest
in Eastern Colorado. The price paid
for it was s126000.
The ranch was bought many years
ago by Mr.. Rhodes and it has been one
of the largest cattle ranches in the
state. 1t was sold to Mr.. Rhodes,
through Colorado Land Headquarters
about two months ago to Omaha and
Kansas City capitalists. They IN turn
gave 1t over to the Seventeenth street
land people for resales. The advance
over the price of the Kansas City and
Omaha capitalists paid for it and the
price they sold for was marked, being
another striking example of the ad-
vance in the price of lands in eastern
Colorado.
Ii is Mr. Dockstaeder's intention to
raise hogs on large scale. The low
lands on the property will be utilized
to raise alfalfa. while the high lands
will be devoted TO peas and barley. 1t
has been the theory of most Ameri-
can farmers that the corn-fed pork was
the best, but in Holland. whence comes
the best bacon in the world, the hogs
have been fed on peas and barley ex-
clusiyely for years.

ALL PARTS OF COLORADO sENE.
FITTED.
The Movement on Foot to Boost Colo.
Colorado viii Be General.


Denver.-If the 100000 advertising
fund now being raised to boom Colo
rado Is used wisely to secure settlers
for the agricultural lands of the state,
1t Will bring results that will benefit
every part Of the state and will build
Denver as nothing else would.
This Is the opinion of John Clay Of
Chicago, who Is In Denver for a few
days on business. Mr.. Clay Is one of
the successful business men of the
country. He has been identified with
the live stock business in the West for
about thirty-three years and is the
head OF the firm Of Clay, Robinson Co.,
which has branch houses all over the
country. MI. Clay has financial inter-
ests In Colorado. being interested in
banks and live stock, and is the head
of the Western Ranches Company, one
Of the few remaining great cattle cor
porations of the Northwest. He is an
authority on live stock and financial
| matters and predicts that Denver will
some day be one of the greatest live
stock and packing centers in the
country.
ut is time Colorado was awakening
to the opportunities that surround this
5lueS, Saiu MI. clay. IL mas taken
long time to overcome the idea that all
the prosperity of the state is based
upon the mineral resources of the
state. AS great as they are, agricul-
ture is many, many times greater.
Develop your agricultural resources to
their fullest extent and you have laid
the foundation that will bring every
thing else that goes to make a prosper
GUS community. Your people talk of
needing more population, and manu-
featuring is suggested as the means
| to bring that end. l tell you that IL
you will bring in the farmers all the
rest follows as a matter of course.
Mining development will always con-
tinue as matter of course and should
be encouraged along legitimate lines,
but the farmer is the steady, legiti-
mate producer.
Let the farmers upon the high
priced land in the middle western
states know of the wonderful fertility
of your soil, and you will have flood
of immigration of the kind that counts
These men have the training required
to secure from your soil the very best
results. They also have a thorough
knowledge of live stock farming, and
that is the kind that will bring the
greatest profits, for the reason that
you can grow here the best root and
forage crops. and stock feeding,
coupled with sugar beet growing,
yield enormous profits to the farmer"

Clark is Indicted Again.

E. N. Clark, the Denver & Rio
Grande attorney, who was indicted by
the federal grand jury at Salt Lake on
the charge Of filing the names Of
dummy entrymen in order to acquire
possession of the coal lands for the
benefit of the railroad company, ap-
peared before United States Commits
sioner Hinsdale and gave bonds in the
sum of $4,000 for his appearance at
the November term of the Utah fed
eral court, when the Utah coal land
frauds are to come up for hearing.
Clark was indicted on April 22d for
the second time, the first indictment
against him being defective, the new
papers were drawn up. The charge
in the warrant sworn out for his ar
rest after the Indictment was for con
spiracy to defraud the government out
of coal lands" The government Off
cials permitted him to give bonds here
as q matter of convenience and to save
him the trouble of going to Salt Lake
for appearance.

Say What Crop viii Be Short.

Omaha.-A special train, with a COM
mittee of fifty members of the Omaha
Grain Exchange, which has been max
ing a tour of investigation of the Me-
braska and Kansas wheat fields, has
returned.
Wheat, especially in the southeast
ern portion of Nebraska, has suffered
about ten per cent. from green bugs
and continued drought. Sumner
county, Kansas, will not make over
forty per cent. The bugs have done
great damage to the fields which were
examined Some members declare the
entire crop ruined between Caldwell,
Kansas, and the Oklahoma line, and
Wichita, distance of fifty miles. The
party agrees that the yield of wheat
This wear will be very light as COM
pared with former years. 1--WE find
wheat in mighty bad condition"
The party covered the districts OF
Kansas and Nebraska which have in
the past always raised bumper crops.

state line.

German Soldiers Are Coming

Denver.-Five thousand dollars vert
collected by the committee in charge
of the arrangements for the annual re-
union of the Federation of Former
German Soldiers, which will be held in
this city during the latter part of Au-
gust. The committee has decided to
raise a fund of $4,000 for the enter
tainment of the thousands of visitors
who will come to Denver during re-
union week, and, judging from the sue.
cess last week, 1t will have no trouble
to raise the entire amount before the
middle of June. Everywhere the mem
bers of the committee met with the
greatest enthusiasm, and responses to
requests for contributions were both
liberal and prompt.
Godfrey Schirmer, president of the
German-American Trust Company, has
been elected honorary president of the
committee in charge of the reunion
fund. Few Germans in Denver are
better known than Mr.. Schirmer. He
has been a resident of Denver for a
number of years and is one of Denver's
leading business men.
In active charge of the preparations
for the reunion is John Hecker, presi.
dent of the reunion committee and
chairman of the finance COMMITTEES
Mr.. Hecker, the Denver representative
of the Golden Brewery, is not only a
former German soldier, but he fought
with great distinction during the Civil
War. He, like Mr.. Schirmer, is well
known among Denver's business men
and he is considered one of the leaders
of the city's German-American. ropula
ton.

Mineral Farm Reopens.

Ouray, Colo.-The work of overhaul
ing and remodeling Mineral Farm
mill has begun. The mill, which con-
sists of twenty stamps, has lain idle
for several years. The management
expects to have it running within the
next sixty days. At the mine where
level is being driven below the
blanket vein an immense tonnage OF
ore is being blocked out.
Aa depth of 200 feet the Carbon
Lake mine on Red mountain reports
five to seven feet of black copper ore
running twenty-five per cent. to forty
six per cent with good values IN gold
and silver. In the level above three
to five feet of the same character of
ore was found to continue for a dis
tance of seventy-five feet along the
vein.

At Least One Busy Day.

Springfield, Ill.-A wild orgy marked
the closing session of the Illinois Leg
islature.
Wine and beer were guzzled by the
lawmakers from tin dippers and cups.
The all-night session of the Legisla
ture is likely to create one of the big.
gest scandals in the history of Illi-
nois.
During the twenty hours the House
was In session Saturday and Sunday
morning Ill bills were passed. Beer
and whisky flowed like water in the
cloak and committee rooms.

Colorado Wins Water Suit.

Washington.-The somewhat famous
case of the state of Kansas against
the state of Colorado, by which the for
mer sought to have the latter enjoined
from diverting the waters of the Ar
kansas river for irrigation purposes, or
permitting its citizens to do so, was
dismissed by the Supreme Court OF
the United States to-day.
The announcement of the courts de-
cision, was made by Justice Brewer,
who said that the dismissal was with
out prejudice to the right of Kansas to
serve its petition whenever 1t can be
shown that the state is being substan-
TALLY injured.
The intervening petition OF the
United States also was dismissed.

LINDSEY TAKES NO CHANCES.
The Little Juvenile Judge Of Denver
VIII Not Give Up His Job Until
Another Is Certain.

Denver.-The appointment of
dummy" judge Of the Juvenile Court.
the same to hold his position until the
Juvenile Court law enacted by the Six
teenth General Assembly has been
tested by the courts, and then to re-
sign his position in favor Of Judge Ben
B. Lindsey in case the law is declared
valid, is the unusual expedient which
has been determined upon by those in
terested In the new law. A part of the
plan is to secure the resignation of
the dummy" judge before he is ap-
pointed, or at least secure from him a
definite agreement that he will resign
In favor Of Judge Lindsey. Like the
famous Peabody resignation, this will
be placed in the hands of reliable
third party. who can be depended
upon to see that its terms are carried
out
This plan has been decided upon to
meet the emergency caused by the dis
covery that the Juvenile Court bill has
been doctored in its passage from the
Senate to the House, and the irregular
tiles are such as to create doubt as
to the validity of the law. While the
bill was being considered in the Sen
ate an attempt was made on the part
Of Judge Lindsey's friends to secure
the adoption of an amendment making
the Jurisdiction Of the Juvenile Court
coordinate with that of the District
Court, thus providing for appeals di-
rect to the Supreme Court.
1t was understood that when the
Juvenile Court was established as a
separate institution under the law,
that Judge Lindsey was to preside
over it, and that another judge would
be appointed for the County Court.
Under the present conditions Judge
Lindsey does not wish to relinquish
his office for an uncertainty.
