not dared to molest any of the property
of the great Three Bars ranch. Willis

Insurance License Revoked.

Denver.-The Colorado insurance
department Monday revoked the state
license Of the Maryland Casualty Com.
pany, one Of the largest concerns of
the kind in the country, of which John
T. Stone is president. This prohibits
the company from doing any further
business in Colorado unless 1t applies
for new license and submits to an ex-
animation In the regular way.
The trouble with this company arose
over its refusal to permit an examina-
tion OF its books by the Colorado de-
partment This was desired from the
fact that the company had been re.
ported as doing a large overhead bus
mess or in other words had written bus.
mess through outside agents, thus
evading the payment of commissions
and taxes in Colorado. After being
given twenty-five days in which to
show cause why its license should not
be revoked, the company still refused
to permit examination and secured an
Injunction from the District Court in
Denver to prohibit the Colorado com.
missioner from inspecting the books.
This injunction was quashed Saturday
and Monday the company withdrew all
action from the District Court. The de-
partment then revoked its license.

TAFT Controls ohio Convention.

Columbus, Ohio.-The Republicans
OF Ohio, who met Tuesday to hold
their state convention, placed the en-
tire party machinery of the state in
the hands Of William H. Taft and his
political followers. and dealt a stag
Eering blow to the interests of Sena-
tors Foraker and Dick by wiping off
the state central committee every man
who was known to have any bias in
their favor.
OF the twenty-one members Of the
new committee, eleven were reelected.
Seven members constituted the For
aker faction and all were dropped. The
Othe three who were not reelected
wele for Taft and their retirement was
caused by local conditions alone Ev-
cry member of the new committee is a
Taft man.
Walter F. Brown of Toledo was re-
elected chairman and Malcolm Karsh-
ner of Columbus, secretary of the COM
mittee. The committee on permanent
organization decided to report in favor
of Attorney General Wade H. Ellis for
permanent chairman.
Pictures of Senators Foraker and
Dick were hung in the convention hall
and the platform which will be pre-
sented has in it plank commencing
the "Ohio representatives in Con-
gress" without, however, mentioning
any of them by name. At the same
time another plank whics is also in
the platform strongly indorses the
passage of the railway rate bill against
which Senator Foraker fought so Wig
orously on the floor of the Senate. The
convention was called to order by
Chairman Brown. The Columbus Glee
club sang several selections, the most
popular of which was Were Wearing
Our Hearts Away For You. Billy Taft
The convention was temporarily or
EaniZed with James R. Garfield as
chairman and r. M. SwitZer secretary.
Cheers greeted every mention of the
name of Taft, and the prediction that
Ohio was about to furnish another
president created bedlam of ap-
proval.

Indians May Study Farming.

Fort Collins.-The United States is
looking into the question of educating
the Indians to become scientific farm
ers, and It is possible that as a result
of the Investigations being made by
the Indian bureau the Colorado Agri-
cultural College will profit in the an in
creased number of students, who will
come from the tribes of Southern Col
orado AMI New Mexico.
The present inquiry is the result of
the work done by the farmers short
course in January, when three
Apaches from New Mexico attended.
Charles c. Dagnett, supervisor of In
dian employment, writes the college
registrar for full information concern
ing the courses, the cost of tuitisn and
living and other facts of interest to
students. The department is giving
the matter of scientific farming ed
ucation for the Indians considerable
attention, and the Colorado Agricul-
tural college, being nearest the great
western reservation, is expected to be
selected as the place for training the
redskins.

EXPERTS DEFEND NAVY,
controvsrt Former Criticisms Made
Defore Naval Committee,

Washington.-FOur naval officers,
all experts in turret construction and
ammunition men, Tuesday testified be-
fore the Senate naval committee in de-
fence of the American navy against all
forms of criticism. Three of the wit
nesses-Prof. P. r. Alxer, instructor
in mathematics at the naval academy
and member of the special board of
turrets; Commander E. r. Fletcher.
and Lieutenant Commander V. o.
Chase, spoke in detail concerning tur-
ret accidents and the methods that
have been adopted to make turrets
safe
None of these officers seemed to
think there was great danger in the
direct hoist II changes were made to
provide more effective screening be-
tween the ammunition handling rooms
and the big guns.
Professor Alger defended the Ameri-
can navy as to the criticism made by
Commander Sims that poor marksman-
slip was shown at Santiago. He de-
clared that American gunnery was as
good as that of any navy at that time.
and that at the present time there was
no navy in the world that would sur
pass the American in straight shoot
ing.
Commander E. F. Fletcher, a naval
expert on the subject of turret con-
struction and particularly on the sub
ject of ammunition, contradicted much
Of the testimony given by Commander
Sims Monday
THE American device of straight
hoist" he said ''is similar TO five
sixths of all the hoists in use. and
therefore is not the senseless expert
ment some critics have charged"
All that Is required to make turrets
safe, he thought. is to provide proper
screen between the guns and the hand
ling rooms.
Under the present system there is
no danger whatever to the powder
magazines He told of the Missouri
accident. where 400 pounds of powder
burned in the handling room and
large quantity in the open door of the
magazine without any damage or
much danger to the air-tight powder
tanks.
"Of course there is somewhat more
of a chance than we like to take, how
ever" he commented. He said that
there had been forty or fifty accidents
in the French and other foreign
navies where powder had burned in
the handling rooms of ships without
causing explosions. He agreed with
Admirals Converse, Capps and Mason
that the turrets can be made safe in
accordance with designs at compare
lively small cost. Senator Perkins
questioned Commander Fletcher about
the statement of Commander Sims
that the American navy at Santiago
gave a poor exhibition of marksman-
ship. The witness said that from all
records he had ever seen or heard of
no navy could have done better shoot
ing at that time

Comm, Dick didn't mean to blab

They moved away. Sanderson fol-
lowed them up.
Dick Gordon" he said with cool
deliberateness, you're too damned
anxious to stick your nose into other
peoples affairs. Learn your lesson,
will you? My favorite stunt is to
teach meddlers how to mind their own
business-this way
1t was not fair blow. Gordon
doubled up with the force of the punch
in his stomach. In moment all was
confusion. Men drew their pistols. 1t
looked as II there was to be free-for-
all fight
Langford sprang to his friends aid,
using his fists with plentiful freedom
in his haste to get to him.
Never mind me-" whispered Cor

smiled reassuringly. There was some
thing very sweet about his mouth
when he smiled. Never mind me-"
he repeated. Get the girls out of

Il think you had best get out of this
as quickly as you can. l don't believe
he is knocked out. by any means, but

The unfair blow in the stomach had
given the sympathy of most OF the
bystanders, for the time being at least,
to Gordon. Men forgot. momentarily,
their grudge against him. Understand
ing from the black looks that he was
not in touch with the crowd, Sander
son laughed-a short snort of con-
tempt-and slipped out of the door.
Unable to resist the impulse, Jim
bounded out after his enemy
When Paul hastened around to the
front of the building, the crowd was
nearly all in the street. The tension
was relaxed. A dazed expression pre-
vailed-brought to life by the sudden
ness with which the affair had devel-
oped to such interesting proportions
and the quickness with which it had
iattened out to nothing. For Sander
son had disappeared, completely,
mysteriously, and in all the level land
scape, there was no trace of him nor
sign.
See balloon, JIM" asked Lang
ford, slapping him on the shoulder
with the glimmer of smile. We'll,
