Lima, Peru, Sept. S.-Annie S. Peck
Of Providence, R. l., the mountain
climber, succeeded on her second at
tempt, within a month, in reaching
the summit of Mount Huascaran. She
calculates that the height of the sum-

of Miss Peck had a foot and both
hands frozen, which caused gangrene
to set in, and an Indian guide was
miraculously saved from death after
falling 1000 feet down a ravine. This

Confusion the

If Riepetown is able to push

miXup will he experienced in county
official circles. The desire of the cit
liens of that place is to secure JUS
tice of the peace and constable. They
declare that as the little town is in
creasing rapidly in population and
arrests are numerous, the officers are
needed
The petition for these changes is
not actually drawn, but Is said to be
strongly favored by nearly everyone
in the little town. Inquiries as to
whether this step can be legally
taken have been made and, it is un-
derstood. attorneys are working on
the matter at present.
The reasons assigned are that
Riepetown, with Kimberly, are pop
ulous enough TO warrant separation
into a district with complement OF
officers of their own. Arrests have
been numerous of late and each man
brought 10 Ely adds expense upon
the county which might otherwise
be saved. The establishment of the
Office there would save much trouble
in handling criminals also.
While neither of the officials were
interviewed, there is little doubt that
should petition be drawn and the
matter taken before the board of
county commissioners to secure al
lotment of new district, both JUS
tice Cartwright and Constable Wilson
would fight 1t with all their might.
Both were elected to preside over
a district of which Riepetown and
Kimberly were part. 1t is there
fore very doubtful If anything to-
ward segregation of these two places
could be legally done. IL would
hardly be just even If legal accord

son, although a hardship. to a certain
extent, be worked upon the rapidly
increasing population of the towns
If 1t is decided that any action can

trict, it is probable that a petition
will be drawn at once and presented

many names as can in the meantime
be secured at their next meeting,
