SUGAR IS GOING TO ADVANCE.
Commission Merchants Say II 10
Cheaper in Colorado Than
Elsewhere.

Denver.-At present Colorado is get
ting its sugar cheaper than any other
section of the country. The advance
OF 10 cents hundred in cane sugar,
which became effective in the eastern
market a few days ago, mas not
reached Colorado, but the market here
Is strong, with indications for an ad-
vance of like character. Missouri river
points are already paying the In
creased price. Granulated sugar was
quoted here yesterday at $5.lO to the
jobber and $500 to the retailer. On
the basis of present prices at Missouri
river points, freight added, the price
here would be $5.37 instead of $40,
SO that Colorado consumers are, at
least for time, getting the benefit of
lower prices than points more favored
by freight rates.
Denver brokers' state that the east
ern advance Is due to the fact that the
Cuban crop has been disposed Of. An
advance usually comes about the 1st
of April, when the market is relieved
oe the Cuban product. This years
crop was a little short of normal, be-
cause of political unrest in the island.
Further advances may be looked for
throughout the spring and summer. su-
gar reaching its high point for the
year usually when the canning season
begins and the producer needs it
worst.
Brokers maintain that the law of
supply and demand alone governs the
fluctuations of the market, that the
trust simply lets nature take her
course, and that nature is always very
accOmmodating-to the trust.

An English euaaboo.

II Is amusing to read of the eXpedi-
ents suggested to prevent the pro-
posed tunnel under the English chan
mel from becoming a menace to Brit
fsh safety. One of the latest things
solemnly put forth, says Troy Times,
is to bring the tunnel out at point
where trains passing through it will
have to go over trestle or causeway
before plunging into the actual midst
of the tight little island. The idea is
to have British warships so stationed
as to command this stretch of road,
and of course any train coming
through the tunnel with hostile in
tent could be blown to smithereens be-
fore getting chance to do the least
damage. That an enemy meditating
such an invasion would deliberately
run into a trap of this sort seems to
be the innocent belief of the project
ors of this mighty idea A tunnel of
the kind in question could no more
threaten peril to England than would
a proposition to go around the other
side and come down by way of the
North Pole. The talk of invasion by
that route is farcical. A stick of dy-
Mantle would put the tunnel out of
business in considerably less than
three seconds.

ONLY ONE FOR DEATH.
irregularities Claimed in Jury Room on
Thaw Murder Trial.

New York.-Since the jury in the
Harry X. Traw murder trial failed TO
by members of the juryiT etoe1EL4-
agree, and has, been discharged, two
astounding facts have been made
known by members of the jury con-
corning George Pfaff, the only juror
who held out for verdict of murder
in the first degree and the death pen
atty for Thaw.
The first was that Pfaff, during the
trial of Thaw, wrote personal notes to
District Attorney Jerome, and that so
indignant did the other jurors finally
become about his conduct in this re.
gard that they threatened to call the
impropriety to the attention of Justice
Fitzgerald.

FEARLESS MARSHAL JAllS CeS-

Bad Man From Tennessee Too Slow on
the Draw for Colorado Officer.

boasts of having killed eight mig

MANNED dozen others, and never
known TO do time" for any of them.
made a desperate effort to add Con
stable w. S Harvey to his list of vic
tins. but he proved too slow on the
draw and was forced to submit TO ar
rest after hard struggle.
He was taken into custody on
charge of shooting Epimonio Gurule,
Mexican sheep herder, with whom he
worked at the Forder ranch, twenty
five miles northeast of Sugar City.
Only the sheer grit and presence of
mind of the veteran officer saved his
life and landed behind prison bars one'
of the toughest men ever dealt with in
this locality The shooting of Gurule
occurred Sunday night. while the
hock was being brought in off the
range.
He had armed himself with 3O-3O
rife besides 45 caliber revolver and
on entering the place for supper re
iterated his statements that nobody
could take him, and added. You no.
tice none of them attempted 1t. either"
Constable Harvey had concealed
himself behind door and instructed
one of the other employees that should
Hackworth lay down the rife, to take
it into another room. The Mexican's
assailant rested the rife against his
chair as he drew up to the table II
am afraid of that thing" said the
ranchman. as he picked up the weapon
and carried it into another room. and
Hackworth laughed at the apparent
cowardice of his fellow workman
At the moment Constable Harvey
sprang from behind the door, and lev
cling the gun at his man, ordered him
to throw up his hands Instead Hack
worth grabbed for his revolver, but
quick as a flash well directed blow
from the big siX-shooter in the hands
of the officer sent him reeing to the
floor.
Fighting back like a tiger. Hack
worth rained blows with his fists on
the officers face and body but was
finally overpowered and submitted to
the handouts. The prisoner is twenty
six years old and weighs close to 200
pounds, while Constable Harvey is
f1fty-four years old, rather short of
stature, and weighs about 40 pounds

Excessive Neatness.

It is not the woman who is forever
chasing everyone in the house with a
broom or duster who makes the most
impression as to the desirableness of
neatness and order. While she is
making a martyr of herself in her
frantic attempts to always keep the
hearth tidy, and the woodwork pol
ished, and the carpets free from spot
or speck, she is often driving away
the better elements of the home
peace and love and harmony. A child
cannot enjoy his playthings without a
place in which to play, nor man feel
free in his own house if he must be
always remembering that not so much
is magazine or book shall be left one
moment out of place when not being
read. Yet, observes New York Week
ly, these overneat women find happi-
ness in their struggle for excessive
neatness, and the thought that they
often do actual wrong in the carrying
out of their extreme ideas never en-
ters their minds.

POISON IN PIE
WYOMING MAN ATE PLUM PIE HIS
WIFE MADE AND DIES.
MYSTERY ABOUT THE AFFAIR
Wife Says She Made the Pie, But De-
mics Any knowledge OF How
Strychnine Got Into It

Evansto. Wyo.-The county authori-
ties here have received the report or
State Chemist H. G. Knight on the
chemical analysis made of the stomach
and liver Of John H. Bruce, the Smoot.
Wyoming, ranchman, VINO died recently
under mysterious circumstances. al
ter partaking of a piece of dried plum
pie made by his wife.
The report of the state chemist
shows that both the stomach and liver
of Bruce contained about three mouth
fuls of the pie. Part of this had gone
into the liver and part had been COM
municated with the tissues of the
stomach. but the amount of strychnlne
was sufficient to kill five men.
AS the result of the report OF Statf1
Chemist Knight, the authorities are"
making a rigid examination of the cir
cumstances surrounding the case. The
widow of the ranchman admits having
made the pie, but insists she did not
put any poison into the pie. and that it
must have been placed in the plum
sauce before the pie was made or in
the pie after it had been baked.
Bruce took the pie as part OF lunch
when he went to his ranch from his
residence at Smoot. At the lunch hour
he started to eat the pastry, but soon
became Ill and died within less than
an hour afterward. in convulsions. Be
fore he died he stated that he had been
poisoned. but made no statement as TO
who had done the poisoning. A piece
of the pie was given to cat and the
animal died in ten minutes. An autopsy
was then held and the stomach and
liver sent to the state chemist for anal
ysis.
The authorities say they are certain
that premeditated murder has been
committed and the details OF the
crime. if they ever come to light. may
show a remarkable case.

Where Titles Are Cheap.

The cheapest country for buying a
title used to be Portugal. When a
man is made baron or a count there
his patent recites the service for
which the grant is made. | was once
in Portugal and | had some curiosity
to discover what were the services for
which an Englishman of my acquaint-
ance had been made Portuguese
baron, remarks a writer in London
truth. l therefore looked the matter
up and l found that it was for having
introduced into the country new
tree. There used to be another plan
for becoming baron. 1t appears
that there is-or was then-a convent
which once had large possessions. All
its tenants were, by the fact of being
tenants, barons. But the convent had
lost its possessions with the excep-
ton of one farm. 1t had an agent in
London. For very moderate consid-
Grafton the agent let this farm to
wouldbe tenant. He therefore became
a baron, and when he resigned the
farm to the next applicant he retained
the title.

stated, was the subject of the ballad.
Albert Gordon Greene was the author

made the ballad popular, and it is far
the best specimen of a class of joco

dispatch under date of April 18th
from Chilpancingo, Mexico says. This
city has been completely destroyed by
an earthquake. The known dead num-

and people are fleeing to the open
country. The earthquake continues TO
rock at half-hour intervals, and many
minor shocks are completing the work
of destruction begun by the first
shock
Word has reached here that the town
OF Chilapa, forty-two kilometers to the
northeastward, has been destroyed
No details have been received as to the
number of dead and injured.
The population of Chilpancingo is T.

citizens have been thrown abates, it
will be impossible to give the exact
number of casualties.
The population of Chilapa is $4,000.
No word has been received from
TiXtla, and it is feared it also has been
destroyed. According to the move
ments of the earthquake Tixtla would
be in its direct line.
The following message was sent to
the federal telegraph Office in Mexico
City from Chilapa:
Our boys are working in a public

mountains to become more active and
to destroy much property and many
lives.
City of Mexico, Mexico-The Ma
tional Bank of Mexico has received
telegram saying that 500 lives were
lost in the destruction of Chilpancingo
and Chilapa by an earthquake. In gov
ernmental circles the report is not
credited. 1t is admitted that both cit
les were leveled to the ground, but it is
not thought the death list will even ap-
proximate 500, owing to the fact that
the houses are built of stone in order
to resist earthquake shocks.
The federal authorities here have
been appealed to by the governors of
the districts of Bravos and Chilapa for
