LEGISLATIVE NEWS AND GOSSIP
Red.strictlng Bill.

The one important bill that wen
Representatives Thursday was that to
redistrict the state in judicial districts.
Two changes made in the bill during
The discussion, one switching Nor
gan and Adams counties, and the
other taking Gunnison county out OF
Seventh district and placing it in the
Eleventh. The Representatives from Pu-
eblo county again made a strong fight
to have Otero placed in the Tenth dis
tllCt with Pueblo. The effort was un-
availirg, as the Fourteenth district.
which is the new one, was created for
the benefit of those counties in the
lower Arkansas valley. Mr.. Keil led
IN the fight to add Otero to the Pueblo
olstrict, going to the length of charg-
ing that the bill had been drawn in the
interest of an attorney who would
hope to be made a judge of the new
district. Mr. Lehrritter objected to
Gurnison being added TO district that
was otherwise on the eastern slope.
The makeup the judicial districts OF
the state, as provided in the bill, are:
First-Clear Creek, Gilpin, Jefferson.
Grand, Arapahoe.
Second-Denver: five judges.
Third-Las Animas, Huerfano.
Fourth-Douglas, Ebert, El Paso,
Cheyenne. Lincoln, Kit Carson, Teller;
three judges.
Fifth-LalSe, Summit Eagle.
SiXth-Archuleta. La Plata Monte
yuma, San Juan, Dolores.
Seventh-Delta, Hinsdale, Mesa,
Motnrose, Ouray, San Miguel.
Eighth-Boulder, Larimer, Weld.
ADAMS; two judges.
Ninth-Pitllin, Garfield, Routt, Rio
BlancC.
Tenth-Pueblo; two judges.
Eleventh-Fremont, Chaffee, Custer.
Park, Gunnison.
Twelfth-Conejos. Costilla, Mineral.

WELD COUNTY RAILROAD.
Union Pacific Will Build Branch from
Dacomah to Windsor.

Denver-A Greeley dispatch says:
The Union Pacific has filed declara-
tion with the Weld county clerk signi-
fving its intention to build a railroad
from Dacomah, seven miles west of
Fort Lupton, to Windsor, and branch
line from Hillsboro to Platteville. The
proposed route begins at Dacomah,
where are located the Baum coal
mines; runs from there north to Hills
noro; then northwest into the Okla
loma section, and on to Windsor.
From here it is said the road may con-
meet with the main line of the Union
Pacific to Greeley, forming complete
circle.
The building of the road will tap 4
rich country lying under the Greeley
and Lov"land and Hillsboro anG Home
Srpn'y ditcEcs, whose output hereto
fore has gone over the Colorado and
Southern to Denver. The new road
will also give i direct outlet for the
coal fields near Erie, and circle the
Johnstown country, where it is pro.
posed to erect Il sugar factory two
miles southeast of town, beet acreage
having been pledged.

JUMPER KILLERS
huRDEROUS ORGANIZATION IN
IDAHO.
REVEALED IN ADAMS TRIAL
Archie Phillips Tells Of Association
Formed to Kill Settlers Who
Jumped Timber cIaims-Says That
Steve Adams Was One of the Ring

Steve Adams Was One of the Ring
leaders.
Wallace, Idaho.-A story of crime
and conspiracy that rivals the days Of
the ku KluX Klan was unfolded Tues
day in the trial of Steve Adams, when
Archie Phillips, Fred Taylor's neigh
Dor and friend, told of the Jumper Kill
ler's association" secret society sup
posed to have been formed by men liv-
ing in the woods along Marble creek
in the summer of 1904. Its purpose
was supposed to be the killing of the
later settlers, who had jumped the tim
Der claims of the earlier arrivals. A
Swede named Engstrom, the witness
said, was supposed to be the president
of the society, and Jack Simpkins,
whose claims had been jumped by Ty-
Ter, was supposed to be one of the
ringleaders, as also was Steve Adams.
Phillips said he left the district af-
ter Tyler was killed. 1t got too hot for
him and he was afraid to stay, he said.
About a week lated Phillips left, his
cabin was blown up by dynamite, de-
stroying about $500 worth of supplies.
Asked if he thought Adams and Simp-
lins blew up the cabin, Phillips said
~ but ne DtH'Ntu lHt jumpers
| association employed men to do the
| work.
Phillips testified that Tyler stopped
at his house for supper the night be-
| fore he disappeared. He told Phillips
that he was afraid to stay in that re-
gion; that it was getting too hot for
him and he was going to leave. Cross
examination failed to shake Phillips
testimony.
Mrs. Nellie Phillips, wife of the pre-
| ceding witness, told of repeatedly see-
| ing Adams and Simpkins on the trail
near their home few days before Ty-
| Ter disappeared She told of Tyler's
last meal at their home and testified to
hearing four shots fired the next morn
| ing at the time the settler is supposed
to have been murdered.
Owing to the illness of Coroner
J Keys, the state asked that the court
adjourn to his home at Mullen to take
his testimony. The defense offered to
| take his statement given at the pre-
liminary examination.
On resumption of the Adams trial
| Tuesday afternoon, Archie Phillips
was called and testified that he saw a
notice posted on tree on the Santa
trail near Simpkins' cabin addressed
to notorious claim jumpers on Marble
creek. 1t warned them that they had
about come to the end of their rope
| and it would be better to get out. The
notice was signed with a skull and
crossbones. He took the notice down
and delivered it to the sheriff.
1t was agreed between opposing
counsel, relative to the testimony of
Coroner Keys, who is i'll at his home
, in Mulan, that they should read over
his testimony at the preliminary trial,
and if agreeable to both it will be sub
mitted to the jury. If not agreeable,
court will probably convene in Mullan
| to take the coroner's testimony.
The Glenwood post., 1907-02-23

Owing to failure of the Senate com
mittee on revision and engrossment to
properly insert the amendment recon-
mended by the committee of the whole
in the pure food bill, by Representative
Kelly of the House, it was necessary
Thursday to suspend the final vote
and let the bill go over holding it's
place on the calendar The committee
on revision and engrossment was
treated to some rather searching in
Quiry regarding the incompetent re-
ports it has made in this case and num-
erous others. President Harper called
attention to the very important labor
of this committee and expressed the
hope that in future there would be a
marked Improvement. The members
of the committee are Senators Harri-
son, Barela, De Long, Bardwell and
Campbell. Senator Harrison said the
trouble was owing TO the incompetence
of one of the clerks. He did not make
the appointments and could see no way
of getting relief The chair suggested
a Encouragement of the clerical forces
of the body.
Senate Bill No 32S, Taylor.-This
measure came up in committee of the
whole in the Senate Tuesday, and was
transposed for another bill of Senator
Taylor's by unanimous consent, in or
der to Give il speedy action. 1t re-
lates to the drainage of seepage lands.
AS the mesas are being irrigated in all
parts of the state, the lands below are
becoming filled with alkali. The meas
ure seeks to make a proper distribu-
ton of the responsibility for drainage.
1t provides that wherever a majority
of owners of lands subject to overflow
desire to provide for their drainage,
they may propose the organization of
drainage district, which will have
certain powers conferred upon it. The
petition must be filed with the Board
of County Commissioners of the partic-
ular county affected, and must be
signed by majority of the land own
ers desiring the district who shall
also pay all necessary fees. The board
of directors shall then call an election
to determine whether or not the form
alton OF a drainage district is agree
able to a majority of qualified voters.
The funds for locating bitches and car
rying on the drainage work shall be
procured by assessments directed
against land owners, Section 81 OF
the bill provides simpler method for
bringing about drainage, allowing land
owners to agree among themselves in
writing, very much as Is sometimes
done in forming irrigation districts.
The main features Of the bill conform
largely to the existing irrigation laws
in matters Of procedure. After much
discussion and several minor amend
ments, the usual favorable motion pre-
vailed.

1.-THE popular and pretty marco
wave is said to be bad for the
hair.
Numerous complaints have been
made Of injury. and even Of permanent
harm, done to the hair by constant use
Of this method.
In every case this has been traced
back to the use Of heat the same
cause which leads to falling hair with
users OF curling iron. There are many
ways to marcel the hair without the us.
OF fire.
Among those are the kid. ribbon. OF
other artificial curriers'. the employment
OF curling lotions. and the new hairuin
and string methods.
We VIII treat OF these last modes first
The hairpin curling is illustrated in
one OF the photographs accompanying
this article
The hair Is first parted in the middle
and divided into small strands. For
each Of these a thin wire hairpin is used
Pass the strand through the bend OF
the hairpin. and then twist II down It's
length, plating 1t, as it were first with
one side and then with the other.
When all the hair has been wound
upon It that the pin will hold, twist It's
ends upward TO hold the strand secure
and proceed to the next
The string and paper method Is almost
as simple
The Washington times., 1907-10-13
Braiding With String.

A long string Is tied tightly to small
roll Of paper. which is then held closely
against the scalp. Tae hair has. as
before been divided into strands.
Each strand is then separated into
three parts and is plated. the piece of
string IN each case being plated with
one Of the sections
When braided to the end the string
is drawn upward. pulling tie hair with
g.. and is tied again around he paper.
Two or three hours will accomplish
the marching by either Of these meth
eds, though the effect is better II the
hairpins or strings are left on all night
Even tight braidinE in innumerable
'Topsy' plaits viii wave the hair over
night. This, however. takes a good
deal of time and patience.
A better way for the busy woman is
70 use the regular kid or ribbon curriers'.
or one Of the many patent wooden or
metal ones.
To secure a large, loose wave. sim
ply tie a wide ribbon tightly about the
hair near the top Of the head before
retiring. In the morning there will be
one deep wave about the middle OF the
pompadour and another further up on
tn back hair.
There are several good curling prep
arations. Quinceseed. for instance,
makes an excellent one, and Is OF es-
pccial value to those whose hair IS af-
fected by the weather. It * prepared
by mixing a tablespoonful Of bruised
QUinceseed with n pint OF hot water.
The water Is poured over the seeds
and the whole allowed TO stand TOR sew
eral hours.
The resultantN mucilage may then be
thinned with a few drops Of essence of
violet. The hair Is molstencd with the
fluid before curling.

A child's hair may be trained to wave

however. this is Intellectual, except
where the hair falls out after a fever.

Touching these with the quincesecd cur
Ter, or with little sugar water. viii
transform them into dainty and aurac-

1t may thus be seen that there are
"a thousand and one ways Of waving
and marching the hair without heat.
While this is so. IL IS hard to under

the use Of irons. which break the hair
and dry It so that its growth is re-

hair by one of these natural and sim

not more so. than when the hair is
