BIG WORK FOR GRAND JURY.
Coal, Lumber and Land Frauds VIII
Be Looked Into.

Denver.-The federal grand jury,
which is to hold special session i'll
Denver to take up the matter of in
dieting the persons guilty of extensive
coal and lumber land frauds, has been
drawn.
Three hundred names were placed
in box, and a lottery drawing was
made, from which twenty-three names
were taken. Twelve of these men VIII
be sworn in as the federal grand jury,
but their names will be kept secret
until May 18th, the date of opening the
session.
Everything conducted with the in-
vestigation is being kept under cover
for fear that the big corporations
might in some way get inside knoWl-
edge of the affair and find loophoie
of escape for their officers.
Even in filing the two suits in equity
against the New Mexico Lumber Com
Eany and the Pagosa Lumber CON-
pahy, the names of the officers and
stockholders were withheld under the
pretext that they are unknown, and
only the name of the, least prominent
stakeholder in the companies was used
as basis for suit.
Whitney Newton is vice president OF
the Pagosa Lumber Company, but his
name does not appear in the equity
proceedings. Instead the complaint
was made out against James T.
Matches, III. T. Sullenberger and
others unknown" but party to the
suit.
In the case of the New Mexico Lum-
Der company Edwin NJ Briggs was
named as the only person known,
while ]. j. McGinnity of McPhee &
McGinnity is the secretary of the
company.
Besides the twenty-nine citizens of
ST. Louis who have been subpoenaed
to apear before the jury in connection
with the coal land frauds, score of
other persons from different points in
the state have been served with pa
pers to be on hand to give what testi-
mony they can to the grand jury.

tered plea of paranoia. DIR. Sutliffe,

tics here, was married and had chill
dren.s For two years he was friendlN
with Maud Williamson When the gifl

As to Mastioation

Something "fresh" every day, but nothing new under the sun. Here is a foolish physician who insists that hu. man beings should bolt their food be. cause some carniyorous animals do. He mentions particularly the eat and dog tribe, Cats do not bolt their foed. Here is another nature fakir. Dogs do bolt it. A dog has forty-two tearing and cutting teeth and no grinders. Man has thirty-two teeth, consisting of four different kinds, well fitting him to eat every variety of food A horse has forty-four teeth, and God left space between the molars and premolars (bi- vuspids) for man to insert a steel bit.
 Gladstone lived to grand old age and was rarely ill He enjoyed we'll rounded diet, and late in life attributed lis excellent health to his habit of com plete mastication. He believed in giv- ing thirty-two chaws to each article of food taken into his mouth, or one to each tooth. l think he went too far. The familiar adage is, "the more time in the mouth the less time in the stom- ach. " But there should be some dis erimination in chewing The man who bites of mouthful of bread at your table is regarded as country pumpkin. Polite folk break off respectable chunk Cor moreeau) with their fingers and shove it into the buccal cavity be- tween the upper and lower incisors, thereby robbing eight useful teeth of their duty.
