PREPARING INFORMATION

The United States Reclamation
Service is preparing a series of
illustrated circulars giving full
Information regarding the sever
al large irrigation projects al
ready completed or under con.
struction. These circulars will
be invaluable to anyone thinking
Of taking up irrigation lands on
any Of the government projects.
Specific information will be
separately prepered for every
project. At the same time a
general circular will be prepared
for persons who desire general
information and do not know
where they wish to settle. The
general circular will not go quite
as much into detail as those
which deal with single projects.
The reclamation service daily
receives great quantities Of let.
tors asking information regard
ing its work throughout the
great west. The rule here |
tofore has been to send out a |
batch of information to all in
Quirers aBcVt all the printed !
matter ever issued by the ser.
vice. To persons who were es-
pecially interested in a specific
project, this method was not al.
together satisfactory. since it
gave them a great deal Of infor-
nation that was of ho immediate
value and failed to 60 enough in.
to detail regarding the partic-
ular locations about which in.
quiries were made.
Instead of referring inquiries
to engineers in the field. officials
are now asking all interested
persons to write directly to head
quarters. A good deal of data
has already been prepared and

some projects are completed. 1t

fore the pictures are ready and

HAS BEEN PASSING
SOME WORTHLESS BILLS.

1t will be remembered by Sentinel
readers that a number of months ago
several worthless bills. issued many
years ago by a long defunct bank of
Georgia, were passed in this city. IL
is believed that the man who worked
many Colorado cities Win these bills
has been caught. The following is
from the Denver News:
Charles b. Hulster, former con-
vict in the penitentiary at Canon
City. is being brought back to Dem
YER by Secret Service Agent Rowland
K. Goddard to answer to charge of
passing worthless notes of the old
Bank of Georgia in cities of Colo
rado.
Hulster is also charged with hav-
ing used the United States mails to
defraud unsuspecting business men
in Denver and other cities in Colo
rado with the worthless bank notes.
Hulster was arrested in Denver
August last. charged with uttering
Confederate bank notes. but was re-
leased by the secret service officers,
as at that time no formal complaint
could be lodged against him. Within
a few days later after his release
complaints began to pour in and the
officials satisfied that his story of
having the old war paper in his
possession simply as relic was false,
Immediately instituted search for
him.
He fled to San Francisco. where
a short time ago he was arrested on
a charge of larceny. The govern
ment officers were notified and God
dard set out to bring him back. Hull
ster was arrested two years ago by
the late Secret Service Officer Joseph
A. Walker for passing worthless
checks and sentenced to one year at
Canon City.

TWO BOYS
IN COURT

This afternoon two little boys
one about IA years old and the 9TH
er about ~ years of ageAwere ar
raignedl before Judge Sullivan in the
juvenile court. They were charged
with breaking into the cabin of Will
liam VanGundy, located about 5
miles east of town on a claim, and
stealing pillow. some knives and
other articles.
The stolen goods were found in
the boys possession and they did
not deny their guilt. They gained
an entrance to the cabin by breaking
in a window. The stolen goods do
not reach a total value of any con-
siderable amount. s5 probably COW
ering all.
The boys are the sons of John
Austin. who has been working on
ranches east of the city. The father
and, the two boys have been batch
ing in a cabin on one of the ranches.
The mother has been dead several
years They have been allowed to
roam to some extent since the moth
er died and have not had the home
life or paternal care that most chill
dren have; therefore, there are ex-
tenuating circumstances.
The case was called in the court
at 3 pm. The boys were in the Gus
tody of the sheriff.
After hearing the evidence in the
case. Judge Sullivan took the case
under advisement and will render
a decision tomorrow.

man named Jones. The defendant
played Jones and got the money on
one or two checks.

1t will be good argument for the
liquor interests in their fight against

year they will pay over $4,000 into
the Golfers OF the state of Colorado.
State Treasurer Bent's deputies and
clerks are at present buster than the
proverbial bee, issuing liquor licens-
es in lieu of those which expire April
4. There are 1,s00 of these, and as
each saloon or establishment which
gets one must cough up $25. the
impressive sum of $4,000 will be
added to the states revenues this
month. During the year. 1,2O0 other
licenses will expire. -and the total re-
ceipts in this line will be S75,000.=

SYNOPSIS.

The browning desire in the life of old
Baumgartner, a Pennsylvania German, is
to obtain possession of the beautiful
meadow which lies just between Baum
gartner's property and the. railroad sta
ton. The property in question was in
and athletic young girl, and belonged
solely to her. At length Baumgartner
came to realize that his only hope OF
obtaining the property would be through
the marriage of his son Sephenfjah TO
Sarah Pressed. In mock auction "Sefy,"
popularity known, is ratified off by his
father to Sarah for 81, He appears utter.
~ incapacitated to win in any contest of
love or life. Sarah Pressed is quite the
opposite of Seffy She is all life and ami
nation. Her one fault is very high
temper. Baumgartner gives Seffy some
lessons in courtship. Baumgartner has
caused himself to be appointed guardian
of Sally. Seffy is unable to resist the
fascinating witcheries of Sally and he
kisses her. She promises him, however,
that she will never kiss any man but
him. Sam Fritz, drunken grocery
clerk-old Baumgartner calls him mo
lasses tapper"-calls on Sally and inter-
rupts the kissing They go into the par
Tor and begin a sitting up contest. In
accordance with the customs of the place
and the time, the one who is defeated
in such contest is unworthy the hand
of the girl. Seffy goes to sleep and be-
huff. saying: Good night, gentlemen"
Seffy tells his father of his humiliation;
of how Sam Fritz had pinned to his
bosom while he slept a paSteboard tomb
stone bearing the inscription: 'Sepheni-
jah p. Baumgartner, Jr., went to his
of his age. Gone but not forgot Read

maids untutored face showed Seffy
that she was not telling the truth
however, and she was not sorry for it
She would never have treated Seffy
so!
Seffy shifted his hat from one hand
to the other and then said:
Tell her-tell her-when she comes
home-that I'm sorry" He did not
exactly know what he was sorry for
and so said good night and went.
"He knowed you was at home!" re-
preached the little maid. HE was
sorry for YOU"
what did he say?" demanded Sally
savagely.
ITO tell you that he was sorry
when you got home"
when 1 got home? Then l better
stay away, expect. That's what he
meant, did he? Well, I'll show him!'
But the maid understood Seffy's rustic
chivalry and she did not laugh with
her mistress.
Yet, Sally went back to her window
and again watched, hoping Seffy would
look back. She was not quite sure
what she would do. Perhaps she would
get angry-perhaps-But if he would
only look! He did not, and Sally un
derstood that he had accepted his
congo as she had given it. And quite
as the old man had said,she did regret
now, and she had regretted that other
night. But there was more penance
than he had said or thought. Yet
there was the Pressed temper! And ii
did not await the subsistence of the
sorrow, but rose at once. What bust
ness had he tamely to accept the stu
alton?
am satisfied that there is some con
nection between red hair and temper
And am, further, satisfied that there
is even more between the associated
ideas of red hair, temper and regret
But my difficulty is to determine just
where each stands. Logically, the re-
greet ought to come last. But, to Sally
and in this case, 1t came in the mid
die. For, she began and she ended
without it, but sshe distinctly remem
bered having had 1t. Therefore, ii
must have been in the middle.
And Sam administered Seffy's coup
de grace! Perhaps it was accidental
But l think it must have been nothing
less than spying and then devilish in
vention-it was so entirely apropos.
AS Seffy descended the Hill of De
light on which Sally's pretty little
house stood, Sam assembled it, singing
as he passed Seffy:
Napoleon, with thousand men,
Marched up the hill and down again.
From his own darkness, Seffy saw
a golden shaft of light burst from
the door at the top of the Hill of De
light, and, in it, he saw Sam mount
to where was his hearts desire.

with dropping head, and, when she
suddenly raised 1t, as he ahemmeC he
was quite sure that she had ksen
crying.
Il don't know what's the matter wiss
him!" said Seffy's father, as If they
had been discussing Seffy.
"Who?" asked the girl TREMENDOUSLY
though she knew-"he amt sick?"
"Sef-Seffy-m Seffy. No-not ex-
actly-not to say sick, like him so
hes all got-and it's somesing
wrong wiss him. He can't live long
this way. Fiery night he's down by
the Poison spring-wiss the witches
often all night. He's there now.
chust KEN away-trying to cheer him
up little. Well, so good night"
He passed on, for he was merciful
old man, and Sally hurried away to the
Poison spring, And Old Baumgartner
laughed through his gnarled hands be-
hind the cover of the next turn in the
road, though even to him laughter was
no more gay, as of yore.
Seffy was there, on his back, with
his hands under his head, staring up
at the moon. He looked pitifully alone.
A great lump surged in Sally's throat,
and If she had obeyed only her heart
she would have flung her arms around
him. But another of those qualities
which go with red hair, pride, pre-
vented this. She coughed a little and
Seffy flew around.
Twas just taking a walk" she
said.
Yes" said Seffy humbly.
"The Poison spring is-on my prop
erty-"
'Ill go away" said Seffy, rising. He
looked gaunt as he stood on his feet
in the moonlight.
"Seffy-I didn't mean" began the
