Aaitator Is Arrested.

Trinidad. Colo.-Members OF the
Brotherhood of Railway Trainmep
caused the arrest of Daniel Kyle, ar
operator who claimed to be a member
of the organization. Kyle endeavored
to arouse the strikers here to violence
by word and action He was arraigned
in police court and fined SIS on the
charge of vagrancy and given orderi
to leave town.
Members of the trainmen's organiza
ton believe that Kyle is a member OF
the Pinkertons and has been sent here
with a view of placing the organiza
ton in a bad light. The action on the
part Of the union men in causing the
arrest of Kyle is in accordance with
their promises at the time the strike
was ordered that they would tolerate
no violence or lawlessness on the part
of the strikers.
The strike situation is practically
unchanged. Passenger trains are only
a few minutes behind time and some
freight is moving The local officials
are still helping In the yards. and Mex
leans have been secured to act as
brakeInen on the coke trains. A few
passenger brakemen are reported to
have quit. but the majority are still at
their posts. as they are not affected by

The Europeans, who are all safe
either on board ships or at the consul

warships continue to drop an occa-
sional shell into the group of Kabyles
on the beach in order TO prevent them
from approaching the town.
Advices from Rabat say that the
Kabyles have given the governor 4
fortnight in which to withdraw the
French controller of customs. Other
wise. they say, they will attack the

The activity among the Andjerras
tribesmen near Tangier is creating
some apprehension that surprise at

Studies Trees of Colorado.

Denver.-Commissio by the fac
ulty of Leland Stanford University to
investigate the forest reserves of Colo
RADIO and to make detailed report on
the lumber interests of this state, Fri
Horner Richardson is spending his
summer looking into the forest prim-
eval. His reports to Stanford Univer-
sity, to be submitted next month, will
be a big advertisement for the Colo
RADIO ranges, and may even result in
stimulating the lumber industry here,
crippled at present by reason of the
vast holdings which the government re-
fuses to relinquish.
Mr.. Richardson is graduate of
North Denver high school and is pur-
suing special course in forestry and
numbering at the Pacific coast institu-
ton. He is on visit to his parents
at 1880 West Thirty-second avenue,
and is utilizing his spare time in ac-
complishing the work mapped out for
him by his school,
He Travelled 100 miles straight back
into the heart Of the very widest sec
ton of the Rockies and went up over
the Continental Divide and down
across the wooded slope on the west
into the forests of Middle Park.
he is making complete ColleCtloi
of Colorado trees and shrubs for the
herbarium at Stanford. He says that
the future lumber industry of Colorado
depends on judicious care of the for
ests and minimizing the danger of
forest fire.
Three of Colorados most important
timber trees are common along the Moi
fat road, says Mr.. Richardson. The first
is the ball pine, commercially known
as the yellow pine. This is found up
to an elevation of $500 feet. The
white pine fourishes on the western
slope. Technically it is known as the
lodge pole With it is intermingled
the white spruce. Thousands of rail
road ties have been cut from this.
The government system of caring for
the ranges of Colorado has proved OF
considerable interest to Mr.. Richard
son. He says that only the trees that
are ripe and can be cut to the advan-
tage of the surrounding trees are re-
moved and that new trees are planted.
On private lands the trees are cut with
out discrimination and frequent fires
complete the destruction, leaving a
bar"ra waste, which under natural con
ditions would take hundreds of years
to reforest.
All of these facts will be embodied
in Mr.. Richardson's report to Leland
Stanford.

The Size of Chicago.

Chicago.-The Chicago directory for
1907, which has just feen published,
gives figures estimating the popula-
ton of Chicago at 2,3G7,00 This es-
innate is based ultimately on the
United States census of 1900, which
gave Chicago population of l,G9S, 575.
The same rate of directory names to
total population that was established
at that time is used this year. The
total number of names in the directory
alphabetical list is 1871, 400, an increase
over last year of 21.300 names.
AS has been the case for several
.-ears, the Johnson family leads with
G,549 names, not including the Johns
ten clan, of which there are 545. The
Smith tribe follows second. with 4,S77,
and Schmidt 1,27S. Anderson is
third with 4,441, and Andersen $40.
The shortest names in the directory
are Elk and Elk. There are ten of the

FLAMES LICK
UP 100000
MILLIoN-DoLLAR GOLDEN CYCLE
MILL AT COLORADO CITY
ON FIRE.
A TERRIBLE EXPLOSION
TEN ACRES OF STRUCTURES
WIPED OUT IN ABOUT TWO
HOURS OF TIME.

Colorado Sprngs.-Following ter
rife explosion in the roasting room.
the million-d dollar Golden Cycle mill at
Colorado City was destroyed by fire
Wednesday morning. The loss will ap-
proximate 100000, with about $780,
900 insurance. Only the teaching room
and the transformer building were
saved, the flames licking up an area
of about ten acres of structures in less
than two hours.
Although the origin of the fire has
not been definitely determined 1t Is
supposed to have been due to an ex-
plosion of gas. At $3.50 O'Clock the
roasters in the old part of the building
exploded and 1t is believed this was
caused by the accumulation of gas in
the fire boxes.
About twenty men were in this room
at the the time and it is regarded as
marvellous that no one was hurt. Fred
erick BROMLEY jumped from an upper
window twenty feet above ground, but
escaped uninjured and afterward
helped to fight the fire.
Fight Flames in Vain.
The departments of Colorado City
and Colorado Springs helped to battle
the flames, but the mill was doomed
almost before the alarm was turned in.
The Colorado City department got wa
ter from hydrants on the mill grounds
and Chief E. f. Baty of Colorado
Springs laid 100 feet of hose from
the creek
The wind was blowing from the
south and west when the fire started
and the flames quickly spread from the
roasting room to the sampler and the
ore bins.
After the fire had burned half
an hour the wind changed, blowing
from the north and the flames were
turned from the teaching room and the
transformer building. Had the wind
continued in one direction both build
Ing would have been destroyed with
the rest of the plant
Fifteen thousand tons of ore was
stored in the bins, but as it would have
to have undergone a roasting process
any way the loss will not be great.
The seven roasters, all of which
were in operation. were badly damaged
although it is believed that four of
them, recently installed, can be re-
paired. The fire started in the old part
of the building where three roasters
were stationed and these have been
damaged probably beyond repair.

NEW BILL MAKES GOOD
AT PEOPLES THEATER

Owing to the illness of one of the
leading members of the Perkins Latin
company, who were to present Ibsen's
''Friendship" at the Peoples this week,
the company is compelled to lay off and
was replaced last night by Grace Nor
rison, the clever little soubrette, who
introduced novel singing and dane
ing speciality, and Markee, the magi-
clan. One of the best features of the
program is Mr.. and Mrs. j. Murray
Smith in new one-act comedy sketch
that kept the audience roaring with
laughter for twenty minutes. Maybelle
Meaker has a versatile speciality in
which she introduces singing and
dancing and acrobatic contortions.
Homer Long sang the illustrated song,
and the Peoples stock company headed
by James p. Lee and AL Flournoy, in
Mr.. Lees clever one-act farce entitled
Are You a Mollycoodle," presented
one OF the best farces yet given by the
company. The entertainment con-

acts put on by local professional people

mentor, saying he did not want to have
any trouble, but yesterday morning he
swore to complaint against Cason. The
defendant was represented by Attorney
f. L. Sprague.
The climax came when the attorney for
the defense unfolded long piece of paper
with a letter scrubbed on it in large
black letters. AT the foot of the letter
was a skull and cross bones and a black
hand
The letter was directed to the Long
Beach police and was warning TO them
to beware the "black hand" and the
power of the secret Italian order. This
letter was presented to the Italian and
he was asked if he had written it or
had anything to do with 1t. He promptly
denied all knowledge of the missive.
There were many witnesses on both
sides. The first to be summoned for the
prosecution was Miss Mabel Wilson. the
pretty young woman who was with YES
sella at the time Of the insulting ap-
proach. Her testimony substantiated that
of the Italian.
Judge Austin, after hearing all the
testimony, declared the defendant guilty
of disturbing the peace. Attorney for
defendant asked for an appeal and time
in which to prepare case. The case
will come UP for jury trial on Thursday
at 10 o'clock.
Vessella was accompanied by several
friends from Long Beach.
