Death of Captain Titcomb.

Denver.-Captain John S. Titcomb
one of the most prominent civil engi

18th inst. from an illness contracted
while surveying in New Mexico last
summer. He was highly esteemed by
host of friends, to many of whom he
was known as man of musical and lit
erary tastes. Capt. Titcomb was born
in Great Falls, New York, IA years age
and lived in the East until 1854, when
he settled in Illinois. He served in the
Civil war for four years, retiring with
the rank of captain. His next resi-
dence was at Memphis, Tennessee,
where he served as city engineer fol
four years, and from there started fol
the West, about the time Horace Gree
ley was making his famous prohesies
concerning this section. No one was
more active in the work of laying out
Greeley, Colorado, the greater part Of
his time being given to the construc.
ton of bitches. Later Captain Titcomb
was located at Boulder and took an ac'
tive interest in the State University, in
which he was an instructor for several
years.
Captain Titcomb is survived by
wife and two grown sons.

THE NEW ERA
WALDEN, COLORADO
Mabillon Remembered.
COLORADO
WALDEN,

Tho memory of Jean Mabillon, .
french Catholic priest of the Benedic-
tine order, who was one of the foun-
ders of the modern critical method in
the study Of history. was honored In
Paris the other day when the church
and learned societies united in cele-
Ibrating the two hundredth anniversary
of his death. The exercises were held
IN the. Church of Saint-Germain-des-
Pres. In the abbey once connected
with the church Mabillon did his great
work. At the age of about 33 he had
achieved so great reputation for
scholarship that he was sent to this
abbey to write history of the Bene-
dictine order from the documents
gathered there. Out of his study of
the ancient documents grew his book,
DE Re Diplomatica," which is one Of
the earliest works on the authenticity
of old manuscripts and on the tests to
establish their validity. Mabillon is
regarded to-day by French scholars as
one Of their national glories; yet his
youth was not promising. He began
his studies with his uncle, the village
priest where he lived, and he studied
so hard and paid so little heed to his
physical condition that he had to be
sent from one monastery to another in
hope that his health might be i'm.
proved. But this French country lad
with an enfeebled constitution lived 10
the age of rs. and left a name which Is
not forgotten after more than two CEN
turtles.

Female renaeity of Life.

Statistics show that women have a
greater tenacity of life than men.
Among insects the male perishes at a
relatively earlier period. Female quad
rupeds have more endurance than
males. In the human race, says the
New York Weekly, despite the intel
lectual and physical strength of the
man. the woman endures longest, and
will bear pain to which the strong man
succurnbs. Zymotic diseases are more
fatal to males. and more male children
die than females. The proportion dy-
ing suddenly is about 100 women to
$50 men. Intemperance, apoplexy,
govt. hydrocephalus, affections of the
heart and liver, scrofula and paralysis
are far more fatal to males than fe-
males Pulmonary consumption, on
the other hand. is more deadly to the
latter. The married state is favorable
to prolongation of life among both
men and women.

Indians at White House.

Washington.-Senator Warren, &C.
companied Agent II. e. Wadsworth
and eight Shoshone and Arapahoe In
dams from the Wind River reserva-
ton to the White House Wednesday,
introduced them to President Roose-
welt and later took them to call upon
Secretary Taft. The Indians lost their
accustomed stolidity Immediately after
meeting the President and exhibited
the liveliest interest, for he commenced
talking to them in the sign language
of their respective tribes, which he
learned while on hunting trips in their
country in his Western cattle raising
days.
Little Wolf, an Apache chief, gave
the President an elaborate tobacco
pouch made of porcupine quilts and
beads and a handsome Indian pipe. In
return he was presented with large
photograph of the President. with
these words written across it by the
President himself:
ITO Little Wolf, with the thanks of
President Roosevelt"
While pleased with Roosevelt, they
were more pleased with Secretary
Taft, admring his size and designating
him as very big war chief"

French naval vessels appear to BIO
the special victimssof disaster The
numerous casualties at Toulon, the
naval station, and the mlshaps to vari-
Gus torpedo and submarine vessels
will be recalled. The latest accident
is the explosion of steampipe on the
cruiser Descartes at Tangier, by which
ten men were killed and 30 injured.
Other navies. including our own, have
had accidents of more or less serious
character, and in view of the compli-
Gated machinery which enters into the
construction and operation of modern
war vessels it is not surprising that
these should occur occasionally, but
certainly the French navy seems to
have more than its share.

Beer Foam Causes Tragedy.

Trinidad, Colo.-While attempting. it
is claimed, to prevent James Bissick.
a bartender in saloon at Bowen, from
shooting stranger because the latter
mad objected to the amount of foam in
a glass of beer, Edward James was
late Saturday night shot In the left
breast just above the heart, the bullet
ranging downward and causing death
flVe hours later. Immediately after
the shooting Bissick was arrested
taken before justice of the peace and
released on $500 bonds. When Bissick
learned that James had died, he came
to Trinidad and surrendered himself
to the sheriff.
