Examination and investigation
proved that the body was that of
John Hoffman, one of the old time
residents and prospectors of San
Miguel county and who had strange
ly disappeared year or more ago.
The old man was a stone mason
by trade but for years he spent near
ly all of his time prospecting. Dur
ing the past few years he has been
hunting for the famous Lost Lode" ="
supposed to be just back of Tellu-
ride and all by himself he had dug
a tunnel over 700 feet deep, back
into the mountain. He never struck
it rich"
How the old man met his death is
yet to be determined. An inquest
Will be held over the body this after
noon at Telluride. The body is in
such bad state that the cause of
death may not be ascertained.
The old prospector often referred
to a daughter. Nellie" whom he
GAINED was wealthy woman of
New York City. Nobody in Tellu-
ride knows the woman's last name or
her address.
The remains will probably be
buried in the potter's field at Tellu-
ride.

The Silver Jubilee Service of the
East Side Lutheran Church.

Sunday the Evangelical Imnanuel' IS
Lutheran congregation of the east
side, celebrated it's silver anniversary,
with a bigJubilee service in the Grand
The services began at 10 O'Clock in
the morning; at O'Clock in the after
noon; and at o'clock in the evening.
At each of the services the opera
house was crowded, the music excel
lent, and the sermons in keeping
with the occasion.
Both the morning and the afternoon
services were in the German language,
the speakers being Rev. A. Krusche,
of Kellner, and Rev. VIM. Gieselman,
of Sigel In the evening the services
were in the English language, and
Rev. VIM, Nommensen, pastor of St.
Pauls Evangelical Lutheran church
of the west side preached the sermon.
The Evangelical Immanuel's Luth-
ern congregation was organized in
1881, with Rev. Leyhe, of Kellner. as
pastor. The present church building
was built in 1883, and the question of
erecting a larger and more substantial
editice, is now being seriously consid-
cred. Rev. H. Mack, the present
pastor, came here in 1905, and it is
owing to his untiring efforts in large
degree, that the congregation is at
present in prosperous and fiourishing
condition.

ARE LEARNING TO DRINK MILK.
Only Lately Have the Japanese Even
Tolerated the Beverage.

Japan is learning to drink milk A
nomenon: There was time when
milk was regarded in Japan with the
same adherence as cheese is in
China, especially the pungent and
strong variety. Recent Stats
tics, however, show that time has
worked great change in this respect
and milk and butter are now in great
favor in Japan. Whereas 25 years ago
not more than one or two per cent.
of the persons visiting European
restaurant or eating European meal
at a friends home would have thought
of touching butter, fully 40 or so per
cent. now eat it with relish. They
are, however, quite content to do
without it.
''As to dairy farms, they have in
creased notably recent years. Thirty
or 40 years ago milk was abhorred.
The average Japanese could not in
duce himself to drink it. But to-day
many a household consumes one or
two bottles of milk daily, partly be
cause people have come to like it and
partly because the doctors have recon-
mended it as a unique and wholesome
beverage.
Milk halls too, are now quite
numerous. Butter will probably take
much longer to come widely into
vogue, because of its expensiveness.
A pound of fresh butter costs at least
one yen (49.S cents gold) in Tokyo to.
day, an extremely high price for
Japan" ~.

STATE NEEDS
STENOGRAPHERS
Civil Service Examinations do
not Relieve the Scarcity.

The State Civil Service Commission
finds it difficult to fill vacancies 10 the
state service on account of the small
number of available candidates.
The demand for stenographers is in
creasing and at present is greater
than the supply.
In the state stenographic examina
tion held August "a, 1907, 102 stenog-
raphers made application, 81 appeared
at the examination and 80 passed.
February IA and Is, 1908, another
states Topographic examination was
held; 80 applied, &c were examined
and 81 passed.
At the present date, April q, 1908,
the eligible list for positions paying
from $40 to $50 month, is nearly ex-
hausted and another examination
must be held soon
The majority of the stenographic
positions in the state service pay
salaries of from $50 to $50 month,
and it is for filing these positions that
there is a scarcity of candidates.
The stanographic profession, from a
money point of view, seems a desirable
one to enter, as there are so few stem
nographers who are willing to enter
the state service under $50 a month.
First class stenographers seem to
have no trouble in finding remunera-
tive employment.

SPRING SALE AND
SUPPER A SUCCESS

THE east side ladies' aid society OF
the Congregational church held their
annual spring sale and supper in
Forest ers' hall Saturday afternoon and
evening. The attendance was large.
despite the excessive rain and disa-
greeable weather which prevailed
throughout the day. The sale was
well patronized and proved a financial
success. The supper was served from
$50 until 500 p. M, and was different
from most church suppers in that it
was served "a la carte.'' and proved TO
be novel as well as pleasing. The
ladies who have had it in charge are
very appreciative>of the liberal sup
port and patronage they received.
