our women are the most awkward In

The Clyde Of Land"

According to an ancient law in Eng
land. ga hyde Of land" included what
could reasonably be cultivated with
one plow. This applied for scores OF
years, but at the dissolution of the
religious orders in the reign of Henry
VIII. the hyde" or cultivated land
OF the abbots Of Westminster, all re-
verted to the possession of the crown.
That marked the gradual decline Of
that means OF measuring land. and
before many years the term fell into
disuse, never to be revived.

Ruylna tha First Bond

In the lives Of most people there are
. few moments that are not only big
with Importance. but remain long in
the memory. One of these moments
may be the first sight Of the ocean;
another. when great snowclad noun
tains first come into view. Still an
other. though. perhaps not quite so
romantic, is that time when the aver
age man or woman draws his or her

that there never was any doubt OF the

Trade Fellows Good Roads.

Heavy loads of farm produce are
held up by bad roads. and the better
route Is chosen for them, sometimes,
even when the market is not as much
to the liking of the farmer as the one
offered by city or town situated on
poorer highways. The important fact
about this is that the farmers usual
ly do their trading in the same place
where they market their crops, and
their trade is valuable to the mer-
chants of any city.-Schnectady Ca

GUILTY PARTIES

1 Safe-crackers were at work on the
West side last night and as result
the H. O. Brown Trading company on
Bridge street is the loser thereby OF
$25 in cash and gold watch valued
at about 500. The robbery was not
discovered until this morning, when
the store was opened for the days
business.
An Optic reporter visited the Brown
store this morning to investigate the
burglary, which was evidently com
mitted by someone more or less famiI-
lar with the details of the store.
judging from the way the job was
pulled off.
Entrance was effected by smashing
in the rear door, which made 1t possia
BILE for the burglar or burglars to
reach in a hand and slide a heavy
bar which fitted in slot and held the
door shut.
After gaining entrance to the store,
little time was wasted in tapping the
safe. However, the safe was not
blown, but was opened by working the
combination. The burglar in his haste
dropped three small sheets of paper
en- which in blue pencil was a dia-
gram of the combination, which dia.
gram he went by in working the tum-
blers The mystery is how and where
did he get this key to the combina
tion.
Once the safe was opened, it was
an easy matter to get into the cash
box, containing the money and fine
Howard watch. While the safe was
ransacked generally, only the cash
and watch were taken, the burglars
evidently wanting only money They
took the watch because it was valua-
Ible and might easily be disposed of
on this account.
Chief of Police Ben Coles was noti-
fled of the robbery this morning by
H. o. Brown and he made careful
investigation about the store. He is
now at work on the case and as
there are several fairly good clues it
is not too much to say that the chief
will land the guilty parties If they
have not gotten out of his reach.
Mr.. Brown did not care to go into
details about the robbery, but it is said
he has his suspicious as to who COM
mitted the burglary Whether his sus-
picions are correct or not, the next
few days will likely tell.

Fat the May term of the United States

guns from soldiers enroute to the
Philippines, along with Guy A. Mes
sick and John Mcintyre, and who was
found guilty by the jury and sentenced
to pay fine of $1,000, having served
80 days In the county Jail, Saturday
made poverty affidavit as to his
inability to pay the fine and was dis
charged from custody by the United
States authorities under a United
States statute.
He was Immediately re-arrested by
Special Agent A. E. Bloxson of the
Santa Fe detective force and taken to
Trinidad on train No. yesterday af-
ternoon, where an Indictment is pend
ing against him for larceny from a
Santa Fe freight car of SO phonograph
records valued at $21.6O. AS the arti-
cles taken were of small value, the
Colorado offense, at best, can be but
a misdemeanor, and Wernz will per-
haps only receive light sentence in
the Las Animas county jan
This will end the charges against
Wernz, and give him an opportunity
to start anew. He has many friends
who sympathize with him and his fam
lily in their misfortune.

GARTER CHAMPIONS
RIGHTS OF FARMER

Washington, June :. Contiuing
his advocacy of tariff on hides
when the bill was taken up this
morning, Senator Warren of Wyo-
ming, declared the senate had been
injured and insulted' by man
who in seeking free hides, had de-
tlared that the duty had been put
in the Dingley bill by some mid
night process" He proceeded to, pre-
sent facts intended to show that the
value of hides and that a duty on
that part of bovine's carcass would
be a material benefit 20 the farmer
and stockman.
IF a confidence ma1 at circus
ever presented less plausible
proposition to the farmers than that"
declared Senator Garter, referring to
tine attitude of the senators who de-
sired free hides, ''he is certainly
wanting in wits" Never before has
the farmers intelligence been so
discounted. He is told the first duty
does him no good. therefore it should
be taken off. Then he is told the duty
should be left on leather shoes and
harness for the benfit of the manu-
facturers and is even told he is to
buy in a protected market and sell
in an open market the things he
has to SELL"
Senator Carter declared If the
farmer must sell in the open market
he also should be allowed to buy
there.
