SUFFERING DOG CATCHER.

New York, Oct. 9.-Isaiah Lees, of,
fetal dog catcher of Yonkers, is dying
today at St. Johns hospital from the
effects of Psi dog bites which he has
received while in the pursuance of his
duties. He was singularly unfortunate
in his work, and it seems that all the
vicious CANNES of the community man
aged at one time or another to fasten
their teeth somewhere in his anatomy
Lees is raving mad and undoubtedly a
victim of hydrophobia. He has to be
held down in his bed by number of
attendants, and the doctors say there is
no hope whatever for his recovery.

TUNNEL FOR MoFFAT ROAD.

A number of Colorado men of means
have formed an organization to finance
the MOt1at tunnel under James Peak,
to enable this railway to go through
the main range of the Rockies much
more expeditiously than by the pres
cnt route.
This tunnel will be approximately
five miles in length, and will enable the
road not only to cut down its running
time but to do away with the long and
circutous climb over the top of Rollins
pass.
This climb to Corona, the high point,
will still prove to be the Mecca of the
tourists and visitors, for the sight of
July snow banks will always be at
tractive. But for real railroading it is
at best great expense and nuisance.
The proposed tunnel will start near
Tolland and come out in the vicinity
of Frazier on the western slope. 1T
will cut out much of the snow shed
country and will make possible the
continuous running of trains through
out the winter. Practically every
through road has tunnel through the
main range, and even then ralroadins
is no child's play.
But the organization just effected
believes that the advantages to Den
yer and to the state from the use of
the MOffat road and the tunnel will be
amply sufficient to pay good interest

COLORADO is just now receiving
considerable attention throughout the

TEACHING PRACTICAL
AGRICULTURE.

In an epoch of the constant changing
of human institutions to meet new con.
ditions. schools and colleges must be
able to answer the new demands put
upon them. The classical studies are
no longer popular. For the great mass
es of the people. training in practical
and scientific subjects is needed and
demanded Particularly is this true
of the farming population. The Colo
RADIO Agricultural college has met the
need by applying science and research
to agriculture. Farm management
crop raising, use of machinery, breed
ing of live stock and the care of the
home have been made subjects of use
full and interesting study. In fact
there is no longer any question con
cerniug the value of advanced practi
cal and accurate knowledge bearing on
successful agricultural practice to those
who follow farming, stock raising and
home-making as business. Education
and training pay on the farm and in
the home as they pay in other callings
in life.
Some have neither the time nor the
means for taking the four years course
in agriculture or domestic science, lead
ing to the Bachelor of Science degree,
The college has solved this difficulty
by offering practical course in agri
culture and domestic science, consist
ing of two years work of five months
each. The only educational qualitica
tion is ability to read and write, and
the age limit has been place at seven
teen years for men and sixteen for
women.
The new course has been planned tc
give the greatest possible amount OF
instruction in the shortest possible
time. The foundation is laid in such
general studies as English, chemistry,
veterinary elements, bacteriology, and
practice in shop work, farm mechanics
and handling of live stock; later III
the course these principles are put into
practice in the work of stock Judging
dairying, soils and farm management
Other special studies of use on the
farm are forestry, farm accounts dis.
eases of live stock and work in hort
culture for young men and work in
cooking, millinery and dressmaking for
young women.

THE TOWN of Grand junction has
brought action against number of sa-

fail to see any reason for trying the
cases in the newspapers or going into

THE EXTREME PUNISH
MENT DEMANDED.

Thomas j. Taylor, the man who was
arrested Saturday for an assault upon
his divorced wife with intent to kill
her, had but a month or so ago been
released from the penitentiary, where
he had been imprisoned for seven years
for former attempt upon the life of
the same woman When arrested he is
reported to have declared that he still
would kill her when he regained his
liberty.
1t is a case calling for the extreme
limit of imprisonment which the law
permits. If possible, he should be sent
take the life of another should be put
out of the way of carrying his purpose
into effect.
Imprisonment for seven years worked
no reform in him and did not lessen
his determination to commit murder.
This shows that were he released again
he would probably carry out his
threat. The life of woman who it
seems has given him no excuse for his
murderous intention is in danger when
ever he is at large, and the only thing
to do with him is to lock him up and
thus make it impossible for him to do
her any injury.-Denver Republican.

A VISIT to the Tri-county fair at
Aspen, brings to ones mind many
thoughts. One is that Aspen has Il
number of hustlers that any town
should be proud of. Without the en-
thusiasm and energy of w. S. Cope
land, c. II. Daley, E. l.. Ogden, Harry
Koch and w. H. McNichols, and the
loyal support and assistance given
them by the people of Aspen, the fair
would have been failure 1t was
made a success in the face of great
odds. Another thought which forces
itself on the attention of all unpreiu-
diced people is that Glenwood, and not
Aspen, is the natural location for the
district fair. 1t is the center of the
producing section and easily accessi.
BILE from three directions, and in this
respect has a decided advantage over
our little city, the silver camp.

ter received at the NJ, and NJ. head
quarters In this city In response to
the circular letter OF inquiry the fol-

Little Rock, Jan. l6, 1907.
Dear Sir--In reply TO your circular
letter of the Sth inst, ipquiring as to
whether our railroad commission has
been a success; we beg TO advise that
we think that it has. The commits
sion in this state has absolute power
to make all freight rates. express and
passenger rates, and has in each in
stance exercised its power, except as TO
passenger rates. The statutes of the
state provide "A set of maximum pas
senger rates which the commission has
deemed low enough. A number of
bills have been introduced in our leg
islature this year looking 10 the reduc-
ton of passenger rates on trunk lines
on basis of two cents per mile, and 1t
is probable this rate will be adopted.
