 New York. June At was learned in Wall street to-day that the real mis- sion of the Chinese special envoy, Tang IShao-Li. and party, which spent sev- eral weeks in Washington last year, was to borrow hundred million dol lars for the great Schewan Railroad and it is stated on the same authority that negotiations are now in progress between a group of financiers led by J. Pierpont Morgan and the Chinese for the conclusion of this loan as soon as the Chinese government gives aE- thority to anyone to make final ar rangements.
 The Chinese envoy gave it out that they were coming to America to thank in remitting the Boxer indemnity. Rumors of a proposed Chino-American alliance were denied but it is known that Japan kept a close watch of the visitors while they were in this cosn- try as it was feared that some under standing between this country and China as to the control of Manchursa was the object of the visit
 Now comes the information that Yuan Shi Kai who was grand coun- cillor of China under the Dowager Em- press had sent Tang Shao-Li to the United States to negotiate the loan. While Tang and hfS companions were on the Pacific coast the Emperor and Empress died and Tuan-Shi-Kai was m nexstEns he Xni. had the power to negotiate the loan or not. After his formal visit to the President. Tang asked the State Department to put him in touch with American financiers who could negotiate the loan- China had promised the American legation in 1904 that when the Kankow-Schewan line was built America would have the first opportunity to loan the money.
 Elihu Root, then secretary of state, called on J. P. Morgan and his finan- cial aides and several conferences were held at Washington When the terms were practically arranged, the Ameri- can financier asked Tang whether he had the power to sign the papers and he replied that Yuan Shi-Kai had told him to look into the matter of the loan and to arrange terms but that he could not sign any papers.
 In order not to let the world know that whatever mission he had on hand had failed. Tang and his party went to Europe. But it was generally known and declared that "The Chinese mis- sion to the United States had failed" Japanese parliament. Tang went to Belgium where he interested fnanciers in his plan and was also consulted by German financiers.
 Root told Tang that America did not loan money to foreign governments for political purposes but that proper as surances should be presented to the sure any financiers who would be in terested. The prospect of a large American loan in China in the near future has created a stir in Wall street.

A COLORADO BOOSTER.

MIR. ]. b. Rutherford, special rep
resentative of the Colorado National
Life Assurance Co., Of Denver Is here
this week looking after the company
interests in this section. This is
strictly a Colorado institution, and
1t is worth while for anyone think
ing OF taking out Life insurance to
stop and study few facts in this
connection. One of the greatest needs
of this state has been capital for de-
velopment of its industries. and it
Is a fact that over one hundred mil
lion dollars has been sent out of the
state In the past 20 years for life
insurance. Think how many indus
tries that amount Of capital If kept
at home would have developed, and
how many new families could have
been brought to the state. The pre-
MUM income of the Colorado Nat
ional is invested in Colorado and helI
develop the state. The company has
larger assets in proportion to its
liabilities than any of the great com
panies of the country, and these as
sets are so protected by the string
emit laws under which Colorado grants
a charter to life insurance companies
chat their reliability is absolutely
unquestionable Although only few
years old the company has grown so
rapidly that its future Is assured and
its premium receipts are now nearly
$500 per day. Much Of this money
comes from other states but all is
invested here in Colorado.
This company now has nearly IS,
5O0,000.0O of Assurance in force and
the average annual premium per ST.
900 OF assurance in force is $42.63
which is higher than any other COM
pany in the world.
Mr.. Rutherford will be. here sew
eral days and expects to call on as
many of the leading citizens as is
possible for him to see, and we re-
commend that his proposition receive
careful consideration from all on
whom he calls.

A lusty lunged crowd of rooters and
spectators assembled in Berringer
Hall last night to cheer the local
basket ball teams to victory or de-
feat as their spirit prompted. The
game commenced promptly at s: 80
and there was not a moment of the
evening that was not punctuated by
the yells of one side or the other.
That the Ration girls lost will not
mean a breach of friendly relation on
the part of either team. They were
simply out played and have no apol-
decisions of the umpire and referee
were unanimously conceded to be
fair by both sides. The features of
the girls game were three field goals
by Maud Gumm, who also made three
foul goals making the nine points
scored by the local team.
Lamar had two stars in the field.
Miss Barnard, who scored seven
points and Miss Ford, who made the
remaining number of points neces-
sary to so effectually convince that
they were out classed by the Colo
RADIO girls. The playing throughout
the game was snappy and fast and
1t is conceded that the game was ON
During the boys game, Creaghe. of
Lamar made a sensational basket
throw from the field several times.
Downing also of Lamar played a fast
game making several pretty throws
that Melted seven points for the de-
feated team. The foul goal throw
ing of Gillispie of Ration was a feat
ure of the game, he easily making
nine points in the game in this line.
Hart, Howe and Scanlon also distin-
guished themselves by many nice
field throws.
The lineup of the girls team was
as follows:

teacher should undergo Il physical eX-
animation To determine the sounduess
of his health Second, the teacher
should he familiar with the laws OF
bealth. and. third. the child should

something Of hygiene and sanitation,

as eve strain diseased tonsils and

The health of children should be
looked after, not only in the school,
room, but at home Only from to
10 per cent of the childs time is
passed in school so II is the duty of
the teacher to investigate what sort
Of homes his pupils have. The con
dition OF the child as TO health Is I
barometer of home and social life.
These may be improved by the teach
crs.
The child should be examined by a
