Fight Duel
To the Death
Two Italians Engage ir
Fatal Fight at Delamar

Brief notice was given last
week of a murder which occurred
in Delamar some days ago. but
at that time no particulars had
been learned.
From what we have been able
to ascertain, it seems that two
Italians names unknown) had
been on unfriendly terms for
some months, and threats to kill
had passed between them many
times. One Of them had sought
the protection of the peace off
GERS, and had been advised not
to trouble the other fellow, and
that ample protection would be
given him.
On the night on which the
fatal shooting occurred the two
men met on Main street, and the
one which was killed accused the
other of lying about him, which
was denied. They then started
up the street in the direction of
the hospital, and when in the
rear of John Roeder's stables,
shooting was heard by the resi-
dents of the town. A number
of people rushed to the scene,

Martian Life.
COLORADO.

mdTtIdn LIIc.
Whatever its actual age, any life
now existent on Mars must be in the
land stage of it's development, on the
whole a much higher one than the
marine, writes Percival Lowell in the
Century. But, more than this, 1t
should probably have gone much fur
ther If it exist at all, for in it's evolv-
ing Of terra firma, Mars has far out
now all land. Its forms of life must
be not only terrestrial as against
aquatic, but even as opposed to terra
queous ones. They must have reached
not simply the stage of land dwelling
where the possibilities are greater for
those able to embrace them. but that
further point of pinching poverty
where brain is needed to survive at
all. The struggle for existence in
their planets decrepitude and decay
would tend to evolve intelligence to
cope with circumstances growing mo-
mentarily more and more adverse.
But Furthermore the solidarity that
the conditions prescribed would con-
duce to a breadth of understanding
sufficient to utilize it. Inter-communi-
cation over the whole globe is made
not only possible, but obligatory.
This would lead to the easier spread
ing over it of some dominant creature
especially were this being of an ad-
vanced order of intellect-able to rise
above it's bodily limitations to ameli-
Grafton of the conditions through ex-
ercise of mind. What absence of
seas would thus entail, absence of
mountains would further. These two
obstacles to distribution removed, life
there would tend the quicker to reach
highly organized stage. Thus Mar
tian conditions themselves make for
intelligence.

One who merely skins the news Of
the day can hardly help being im
pressed by the frequency of accidents
due to the clothing of women and chill
dren catching fire from kitchen ranges
or oil stoves. In large proportion Of
such cases, the accident results fatal
ly. Not only does such an accident
seldom happen to men or boys, but it
rarely happened to women in old
times, even when cooking was done
by open fires. The reason is the sup
planting of wooden clothing by cotton
and linen. 1t is not to be expected, Of
course, that there will be a reversion
to the older custom in this respect, but

SEWING In Sleeves.

In making the plain tailored shirt
waists, which are considered so chic
and smart, mistakes in fitting show
more than they do in fancy lingerie
waist of sheer material. One OF the
most common of mistakes in making
shirtwaists of any kind is cutting the
shoulder seam too long. Do not think
that by cutting your shoulder seam
extra long you can give the wide ef-
feet to the shoulders. The shoulder
must never overlap the top of the
arm. for II you do this the sleeve will
iop over and give an exceedingly un-
tidy look to the waist, while 1t will
not gain the broad shouldered effect
which has been striven for. The
shorter length shoulder seam will
hold the sleeve UP to the top line OF
the arms eye, thus throwing the full
ness of the sleeve to the top, thus Civ
ing a nice square line across the
shoulders.
There will be no mistake in putting
In the sleeves II the seam Is made to
run in straight line from the thumb
to the armpit when the arm is held
out straight from the shoulder. Many
amateur sewers do not know lust
where to join the sleeve seam to the
waist and just guess at II, with the
result that 1t is either too high or
too low, and the sleeve is constantly
wrlnkled and twisted.
