only thanks received were incorpor-
ated in series of resolutions passed
by the beet growers in which they

resolutions will be found in another

themselves. They stigmatize the

reads as follows:

 washburn told the police to shoot the lion, and they and everybody else who had revolver got ready: but soon the beast was heard growing in the tent and overturning cages of jab- bering monkeys, and the elephants were trumpeting
 Washburn offered reward of s100 for the capture of the lion and four circus men crawled under the tent, spread out the canvas top of a wagon and tried to form semi-circle and corner the lion. One of the men sue ceeded in throwing a lasso around it's neck Others took the wheels off a wagon cage, laid the cage on the ground. and by using meat as bait goi the lion into it There was a shout Of triumph as this was accomplished and the circus tents filled up again with the crowd.

PLumep KNIGHT.


 L. D. Chillson, one of the oldest
 and best known mining men in the
 entire territory of Arizona, came in
 to Tucson Monday from his property
 in the Pima mining district, known as
 the Plumed Knight, where he had
 been for the past few days, inspect
 ing operations by the force of men employed and laying plans for in-
 creased development says the star. Something over year ago, when following the panic and the fall m the prices in metal, properties in this
 section generally closed down, the
 PIambed Knight was one of those affected. With the gradual return Of
 business conditions to normal. this property, which has always been a steady and paying producer, was re opened for development and produc ton work, a force of men going to work some time about the middle Of September A hoist has recently been added to the equipment and the force is now working at the 100 foot level. From the 60 root level cross cut was taken from the immense vein 1 of solid ore which was exposed at that depth, and Mr. Chillson is of the opinion that, following cross cutting at the 100 foot level, which is soon to l begin, a much larger vein will be en' countered.

He was too busy watch ing the trainer escape from the cage to pull the rope quickly, and with a roar the lion leaped into the crowd.
 A policeman pulled up the canvas and shouted Beat it!' as he pushed women and children out of it and fol lowed. For time it was not known whether the animal had escaped from the tent or not, but circus men grabbed the guy ropes and held the canvas down to keep him close if he should be in the tent, while the alarm went through the other tents and into the main canvas. where the show proper

Troubles Of Agricultural College

The staae board Of agriculture
wound up its business at Fort Collins
last Thursday without settling the
matters that are disturbing the agri-
cultural college. and all of the out-of-
town members left for their homes.

in the matter had been taken or would
be until the investigation committee
got to work.
President b. o. Alyesworth and Prof.
Carlyle left on the same train in he
afternoon for the southern part of
the state, but neither had anything
further to say.
Capt. B. F. Rockfellow, president
of the board, said that he would have
no statement to make until after the
investigation. He is head of the com
mittee appointed to make the investi-
CATION. and said that a meeting will he
held as soon as DR.. Corwin of Pueblo
can be communicated with and date
set. The committee will meet at Fort
Collins and Mr.. Rockafellow declared
that there will be no time lost in run
ming down the various rumors and
unearthing the true conditions.
Relieved of further consideration
of the troubles, the board at its meet
ing Thursday was able to dispose OF
considerable routine business. The
most important action was the re-
newal OF the contract with the govern
ment for the operation Of the horse
breeding station to June 1909. The
building committee was authorized to
advertise for bids and to award con-
tracts for the erection of an irrtga-

Bad Money Abroad.

The public would do well to scruti-
nize all notes of the denomination of
$40 on the First National City Bank of
New York as there are bogus bills
being circulated in this part of the
state. The bill itself is very easy to
detect. even by person not familiar
with bogus money 1t is made of
three pieces of paper, each side of it
being printed on tissue paper and
these two sides then stuck together
with paste over a thicker sheet The
note has a dull color. not at ali bright
like the genuine one. and the pasted
sheets of tissue are easily discovered
by examining the edge or corner of the
note.

signal for all the loose portion Of the

their brief rest at the livery stable.
But 1t was a foregone conclusion that
If Teddy, the Post favorite, could not
win, no other horse would be allowed
to. No horseman in Greeley will ad-
nit that 1t was fair race. but on

had been shown. But what's the use
OF taking more space to tell of the

Greeley is going to spread herself
this year and have rousing old Fourth

the natives. A meeting of the Com

Ing and general committee Of twelve
appointed Of which H. E. Churchill Ii

sion to test the feeling of the members
present was first had. and the opinion
was universal that we just as we'll
show the rest of the state that we can
celebrate properly as well as raise
sugar beets and potatoes. The pro-
gram as outlined contemplates pa
rade. in which four companies of state
militia will take part, also the associa-
ton of uniform ranks of the secret or
ders Of Wyoming, who will bring their
families here for three days, camping
in tents. The state officers, most of
them will also be here. BOurke Coch
ran. the great Tammany chief of New
York City will in all probability be
here as speaker of the day At noon
there will be basket dinner in the
park.
In the afternoon the Driving Park
association will give three hours of
splendid matinee races at Island
Grove There will be several bands
here, our home band, and the famous
Greeley Kid Band. soon to be cele-
brated all over the west, as was the
one-time cowboy band of Dodge City
Kansas The Spanish war veteran
drum corps will be another attraction.
At night we will witness the most won
derful display of fireworks that was
ever seen in Colorado at any blowout.
The Japanese colony has been busy for
weeks making up supply of wonder
full creations in the pyrotechnic line,
and they will assist in making this the
grandest celebration ever held in Gree
ley, skinning Barnum's circus full
mile. and making Coney Island look
like bogus Mexican thirty-cent piece.

why Greeley should not thus tighten

only possible valid objection Is

OUR FAIR FORESTS
Going Fast to Make Newspapers
Doubled in Seven Years

A preliminary report of the con-
sumption OF pulpwood and the amount
of pulp manufactured last year has
just been issued by the bureau of the
census. The advance statement il
made from the statistics collected by
the census bureau in cooperation with
the United States forest service.
Many of the figures bring out inter-
esting facts which show the rapid
growth of the paper making and allied
industries during the last decade.
Nearly 4.OOO.OOO cords of wood. in exact
numbers 1852 $50 cords. were used in
the United States in the manufacture
of paper pulp last year. just twice as
much as was used in 1899, the first
year for which detailed figures were
available. More than two and one half
million tons of pulp were produced.
The pulp mills used 100000 more
cords of wood in 1907 than in the
previous year.
The amount of spruce used was 68
per cent. of the total consumption of
woodpulp. or 100000 cords. The in
creased price of spruce has turned the
attention Of paper manufacturers to a
number of other woods, hemlock rank
ing next, with $4,000 cords. or IA per
cent. OF the total consumption. More
than 9 per cent. was poplar, and the
remainder consisted of relatively small
amounts Of pine, cottonwood. balls am
and other woods.
There was a marked increase last
year in the importation of spruce,
which has always been the most pop
ular wood for pulp. For number of
years pulp manufacturers of this coun-
try have been heavily importing
spruce from Canada, since the avail
able supply of this wood in the north
central and New England states
where most of the pulp mills are To-
Gated, is not equal to the demand.
Figures show that the amount Of this
valuable pulp wood brought into this
country was more than two and one.
half times as great in 1907 as in 1899.
In 1907 the importations were larger
than ever before, being 25 per cent.
greater than in 1906. The spruce i'm
ports last year amounted to more than
one-third of the consumption OF spruce
pulp wood. Only slightly greater
amount of domestic spruce was used
than in 1906.
Large quantities of hemlock were
used by the Wisconsin pulp mills, and
the report shows that the Beaver state
now ranks third in pulp production,
New York and Maine ranking first and
second respectively. Poplar has been
used for long time In the manufac
ture OF high grade paper. but the sup
ply of this wood is limited and the
consumption of it has not increased
rapidly.
Wood pulp is usually made by either
one of two general processes. mechani
cal or chemical. In the mechanical
process the wood. after being cut into
