ARE TOO MANY PRETENDERs.

There are too many pretenders.
Why not be Just what you are and
let 1t go at that? Two little boys of
almost exactly the same size and
weight went to II pair of scales to be
weighed. The first one stepped on
the scales and balanced them. The
other stepped on and could just make
1t tremble a little and start to raise,
whereupon he sweIled himself up,
stood on his tip toes, puckered out
his checks and held his breath as
long as he could. The other little
fellow said: ''Ah, no use in that,
Billy; you can't make yourself any
bigger by swellin' up an blowin'
And that was true. We meet men
every day whose sinister motives and
tricky methods keep us constantly on
the alert and in state of uncom-
Portable expectancy. We call these
people smart-but are they? Is de-
ception smartness? Dignity, virtue,
honor and business integrity, have
so many counterfeits, which 'ap-
proach the genuine SO closely that IL
requires an expert TO detect them.
They are not detected until after the
disguise has wrought its injury in
many instances.-Ft. Collins Review,

LABOR AGITATOR CAUSES
MANY MEN TO STRIKE
Discomfort Breeded by One Man
Causes Half Hundred Men to
Leave Quarry at Glen
woodEBetter Paid
Than Many.

A small strike was called yester-
day in the quarry of the Colorado
Yule Marble company at Marble, as
consequence of which from so to
60 men are idle and all work in. the
quarry has been temporarily sus-
pended The trouble is caused, as
nearly as can be learned, by the
labor agitator whose principal bust
ness is usually to attend to the bust
ness of others.
The company during the past
week employed several men at COM
mon pick and shovel work, paying
them $3.50 per day, which Is 75
cents a day more than men have
Shoshone, although less than has
heretofore been paid at Marble.
which has always been a camp of
high wages. The terms were ap-
parently satisfactory to the men di-
rectly interested until the president
of the quarrymen's union told him
they would not be allowed to work
for such wages and ordered them to
quit.
The superintendent asked the men
to go back to work, which they did,
and with this the president went up
to the quarry and told the quarry
men ne nad been dlScnarged. With
this statement, which was untrue,
the quarrymen quit work. The COM
pany then closed down the mill with
the result that there are fewer men
working at the plant by SO or so
than were employed a week ago. The
power house, the construction of new
houses and the building of roads has
not been interfered with; only the
quarry and finishing room being
temporarily closed.
The Post has learned that the
Colorado-Yule Marble company has
planned to spend $350.O00 this year
in the development of its property
at Marble. 1t is claimed that they
pay 100 per cent more in wages to
quarrymen and finishers than is
paid in Vermont and Georgia marble
quarries. 1t is to be hoped that they
may be permitted to take care of
their large marble contracts. for it
will surely mean much to the coun-
try. A great many of the men are
very rry they went out and say
they did so under a misrepresenta-
ton of the facts. They have been
given SO hours in which to return to
their work-Glenwood Post.

JOLLY TARS TO ENJOY
MANY BOXING CONTESTS
Many Events in Honor of Evans'
Men to be Pulled Off by Los
Angeles Sports Next Week.

Los Angeles, Cal, April IL
Next week will be a busy one in Los
Angeles sporting circles, scores of
pugilistic and other athletic events
having been arranged for the delec-
tation of Uncle Sans tars. The big
battleships will anchor off the Los
Angeles ports, San Pedro, Long
Beach, Santa Monica and Redondo,
tomorrow and Sunday, and will stay
here until next Friday. The inter-
val will be filled to overlooking
with amusements of every kind and
every sailor of sporting proclivities
will be given the times of his life.
What's more, the Jacks will fur
nish a considerable portion of the
sport themselves. For weeks past
tryouts have been held aboard the
various ships in the fleet and in al
jackies come ashore they will bring
with them their own candidates for
championship honors.
Lieutenant Weaver has decided to
put on at Los Angeles the finals in
the championship boxing events of
the fleet There will be one contest
for each day of the program here.
each deciding a class championship
of the fleet. The lightweights will
fight the first day. the welterweights
the second day, the middleweights
the third day and the heavyweights
the last day.
Tremendous interest attaches
among the men of the fleet in these
contests. The Los Angeles enter
tainment committee has proffered a
prize of $50 each for the winner of
each of the events.
The announcement that the big
pugilistic events will be referred by
Champion James j. Jeffries has
aroused the keenest interest among
the sailors. The heavyweight cham
pion of the fleet now is Altieri, who
won the belt last year and has sue
cessfully defended it half dozen
times. However, there at least two
other aspirants for the honors.
Semi-finals will be finished before
the ships arrive at Los Angeles
ports. so that all will be in readiness
for the big events.

TO SHEAR 1000
IN GRAND JUNCTION

A great flock of sheep is to be
sheared in Grand Junction during
the next few days.
S. A. Taylor, manager Of the Utah
Hide & Live Stock Company of Utah,
arrived here last night from Cisco,
where 10000 sheep have just been
sheared within period Of 25 days.
Mr.. Taylor brought with him seven
modern and wonderful sheep shear
ing machines, each one in charge of
an expert sheep shearer.
A temporary sheep shearing plant

1000 sheep which the company has
been feeding in this city during the
past few months.
The plant will in all probability
be ready to start tomorrow morning
and will no doubt prove of great In
terest to the people who care to see
the plant in operation.
1t is believed that the 1000 sheep
will be sileared within a period of
about seven days. The woody in
dividuals are in splendid condition.

OLD ToMBoY MILL WILL START

Hans Hansen, one of the best mill
men in the country, went up to the
Tomboy this morning, and will pro-
ceed at once to overhaul the machin-
cry in the old Tomboy mill, putting
the same in shape preparatory to
starting 1t up again.
This old mill of the Tomboy has
not been in operation during the
past winter, but will now be put in
good shape. and will treat the ore
that has been taken out by leasers
from the old or upper workings, of
which large tonnage has accumu-
lated during the winter months.
The old mill referred to, will be
operated by the Tomboy company
but will handle only the ore of the
leasers, and not the company ore
