FAMOUS MAN MOVES WEST
Brings Prosperity in His Wake

B. A. Booster has come to Denver to
make his home. Booster is probabl,
one of the most interesting men of the
age and it was fortunate day for Colo
RADIO when he Travelled west
ln appearance Mr.. Booster is built on
a large plan, reminding one little OF
Taft. He has loud cheerful laugh, a
cordial handshake and he fairly radiates,
enthusiasm. When Booster is for n
thing-his opponent might as well give
up. That is the reason why he has met
with such remarkable success His en-
emies call him "hot air merchant
but his kind of hot air runs steam
engine.
Booster has settled himself on what
was once a hotel on l7th street. AL
though the place still retains the name
1.-The Albany"-it is now Boosters own
home. Booster himself is regular hu-
man "Welcome"-a anybody who is
a friend of his rushes right from the
depot to the Albany. 1t doesn't make
any difference what time OF day or
night it is, the traveller can begin bus
mess at Boosters. His interests are
Boosters interests. His scheme is Boost
ers scheme and before he has half un-
folded it the thing is just as good as
accomplished.
Good, says Booster, slapping MIN
on the back. Then1ahe hears the real
Booster iargh and il he has doubted it
for second, he regains his belief in
himself and his success. Just because
everybody's business is Boosters bust
ness, there is more going on at his
place-the AIbany-than there is any
place else in the state. There is not a
part of Colorado that isn't feeling the
influence of Booster. Booster is as
necessary to business as the Colorado
sun is to the climate.
He is the "Man Behind"-the forgot
ten man sometimes, perhaps, but the
man that does the work.
If you are looking for success-B. ;.

How l. This For Nature FaKine7

The Tribune wants some of our horse
tanners to try the following plan and
then send in a story OF the show, together
with list of the casualties:
1t has been told by a merchant long
resident in Mexico, in book published
in 1849, that it is common practice in
that country to tame the most violent
horses by a very simple but singular
method, namely, by putting the horse
nostrils under the mans armpit. Our
informant assures us that the most re-
fractory brute instantly becomes tract
able on inhaling the odor of the human
body. The strange statement is corrob-
GRATED by a fact first made known to Mr.
Catlin, who tells US that when an Indian
Of the Rocky mountains runs down aud
nooses wild horse, one Of his first steps
is to place his hand over the eyes OF the
struggling animal and breathe into his
nostrils, when it becomes docile and is
so completely conquered that it submits

quietly ever afterward. This informa-
tion naturally led TO a good many exper-
lments. A Mr.. Ellis, gentleman Of
Cambridge. happened to read Mr.. Cat
Inns statement, and felt natural desire
to ascertain as to how far this mode Of
horse training might be employed among
the British horses. He tried the exper-
ment on tilly not year old that had
been removed from her dam three months
before and since that time had been
out of the stable. He tried it under
manifest disadvantages, for the filly.

and both the owner and amateur were
rather seeking amusement from the fail
ure than knowledge from the success of
their experiment 1t was with great diff.
ticulty that Mr.. Ellis managed to cover
the>eyes OF the restive and frightened
animal. At length he succeeded. He
then breathed into her nostrils and the
moment he did so, the filly lit once de
sisted from her violent struggles, stood
still and trembled. From that time she
became very tractable. Another gentle
man also breathed into her nostrils and
she evidently enjoyed it and kept put.

the following morning she was led out

it seemed almost impossible to frighten

GOVERNOR HUGHES PRAISES TAFT

Governor Hughes of New York con
trasted the qualities of the candidates
as follows:
"There are a thousand exigencies in
the affairs OF this great nation which
cannot be foreseen or attempted to be
controlled by any platform. The saga.

and sound judgmen. of the chief execu-
tive must be the security of the nation
in many trying emergency. And it is
no injustice to Mr.. Bryan's attractive
personal qualities, to his effectiveness as
an orator, his skill as party leader, nor
is 1t any disparagement of the purity OF
his motives to say that the man who
espoused free silver in 1896, renewed its
advocacy in 1900 and later declared his
belief in government ownership of rail
roads cannot be regarded as a safe lead
er to whom may be confided the great
powers of the president merely because
these doctrines are omitted from his
present platform. The country needs a
man rockbased in sound conviction and
fundamental principle, in whose good
judgment in any difficulty all may feel
secure, and such man pre-. eminently is
William H. Taft.
sour opponents seem to regard the
questions before us as simply involving
programme of legislation or of consti.
tutional amendment. But first and
chiefly we are electing president, the
executive of the nation. Nor should we
in considering legislative proposals for
get this. Now, there is no man in the
country better fitted properly to preside
over and direct the varied business OF
the executive department than Mr.. Taft
He already knows it thoroughly. He
has rare executive ability. No one is
better qualified than he to do the work
which under the constitution the presi-
dent is called on to perform"

Why Colds are DANGEROUS

Because you have contracted ordinary
colds and have recovered from them
without treatment of any kind, do not
for moment imagine that colds are not
dangerous. Everyone knows that pneu-
monia and chronic catarrh have their
origin in a common cold. Consumption
is not caused by cold, but the cold pre-
pares the system for the reception and
development of the germs that would
not otherwise have found lodgment. 1t
is the same with all infectious diseases.
Diphtneria, scarlet fever, measles and
whooping cough are much more likely
to be contracted when the child has a
cold. You will see from this that more
real danger turks in cold than in any
other of the common ailments. The
easiest and quickest way to cure cold
is to take Chamberlain's Cough remedy
The many remarkable cures effected by
this preparation have made it staple

There will be tall doings at Nc
Carey's pavilion Friday evening when
the card which Handicapped Hancock
has prepared is run off. The more one
studies the entries the more he is i'm
pressed with the class of the program,
and for action the contests which are
scheduled will be hard to beat.
Dick Hyland will have to do up Kid
Dalton good and proper to have a
great look-in with Packy Mcfarland.
with whom he is matched for January
To- Hyland will have this incentive be-
fore him all the time he is training
and while he is in the ring, for he must
convince the fans that he is in Packy's
class. Dalton does not take kindly to
the cut-and-dried opinions which pre-
vail on the outcome Of the fight, for
he says he will be much in evidence
when they step into the ring for their
ten-round contest. The Kid is training
harder than ever and hopes to be in
such shape Friday that he will be able
to Withstand all the onslaughts of his
opponent
1t would be hard TO pick one of the
remaining three bouts which might be
staged as the semi windup, for all are
of an interesting order and they GER
tainly look good on paper, although the
results do not always come as anti
cipated. frankie Sullivan and Dave
Rennis seem to be evenly matched, and
if Sullivan carries the fight to his OPP
ponent the way he did to Young Nc
Govern, he will receive a warm well
come from Rennie. who is a mixer of
the whirlwind type.
Eddie Robinson still has great faith
in his two Japs, but of the pair he
cknowledges that .Oyama has more
science and boxes more like the white
pugilists and he expects to see a fierce
battle when Oyama and Fred Corbett
mix it. Corbett is training for the ten
round contest and If he shows as much
gameness next Friday evening as he
did when he went against Jack Red
mond, the fans will witness one of the
fiercest struggles of the year, as the
Jap does not know what 1t is to give
up.

Phil King of Dallas arrived yesterday for
the winter season. He is one of the biggest
men in sporting circles in the Lone star
state and his place in Dallas is a famous
resort. He has fine string Of horses at

Archibald was assessed $50 yesterday for
dfsobedience at the post Starter Hoffman is
getting back in his old-time form when he
had the jockeys obeying orders and getting
their horses up to the barrier in decent line
for starting without delays, and if he keeps
on plestering the unruly ones with fines they
will become more tractable.
Jockey Joe Notter will arrive in Los An
geles next Sunday and will ride here the
greater portion of the winter He will go to
Germany in the spring, where he will ride for
Baron Weinberg's stable.
Vinton, the grand old sulker that usually
requires a blast of dynamite or a kick by
piledriver to get him away from the post
caused Billy Finn to use cuss words yester-
day by his dlsgraceful race. Vinton is good
now and can do much better than he showed,
although he hardly be expected to make
much of a showing against such sprinters as
Pal, Taylor George, Lord of the Forst or
Lee Harrison Vinton wants route and a
jockey who will break few ribs at the
rising of the barrier.
Lucky Baldwin was able TO be outdoors
yesterday and is much improved In condition.
He hopes to he able TO get to the track to-
morrow.
