Charles A. Dana only a few years be
fore his death prophesied that by 1902
New York City would be a Jewish CON.

tains l,O62,2S2 Jews, and is the largest
community Of Jews iu the world. Al
though there never has been an official
! census taken Of the Jews In the Man.
+, haitian and Bronx boroughs, yet Attor'
ney Mark J. Katz, private secretary
for Edward Lauterbach, having just
completed a personal investigation OF
this matter lasting over four months, is
OF the opinion that IN these two bor-
oughs there reside 100000 Jews.
More than one-quarter of all the per-
sons In Greater New York City are
Jews. Warsaw, Poland, contains the
third largest settlement of Jews; the
borough of Brooklyn, which contains
100000, being the second o. the list.
only within the last fifteen years have
the Jews been settling In numbers in
Brooklyn, fifty years ago there having
been not a single Jewish name In the
. .
Brooklyn directory.
There are more Jews in Greater New
York than in the European cities of
Vienna, Berlin, wilma, Len berg, Am
sterdam, and London all put together.
Ten per cent, in fact, of all the Jews
In the world reside within the boun-
daries Of Greater New York.
DIR. Joseph Voorsanger, who recently
died In San Francisco, stated that In
the whole Of France there were
only one-tenth as many Jews as
In Greater New York, and that Greater
New York contained twenty times as
many Jews as were to be found In the
whole of Italy. If there are 1902 82
or them in Greater New York, as At
~torney Katz afirms, this would be ff.
teen times more Jews than Syria and
! Palestine contain, and twenty-five times
more than the entire population Of Je-
rusalen.

Rev. William A. Sunday, the
,elist, was, as Is well known, one OF
he best ball players In the country a
score Of yesrs ago. Billy was long a
member Of the Chicago team and was
ioted as a brilliant outfielder and one
If the fastest base unners that ever
rod the green diamond. Speaking Of
he game not long ago in Spokane.
where he was conducting a revival
meeting, Sunday said:
II wouldn't take $1,O00,000 for my
professional baseball experience. Z am
proud / made good and that / was one
)f the best of them I'm my day. Base
oall Is the one sport In this country
Upon which the gamblers have not been
able to get their crooked claws. There
isn't the same disgrace attached to a
professional baseball player that at
tends other professional athletes. The
gamblers tried for thirty years to get
control, but the men behind the game
have stood firm and true. Baseball
mas stood the test. 1t is a pure, clean,
wholesome game, and there Is no dis
grace to any man to-day for playing
professional baseball.
IL rarely have a chance to see a
game nowadays, but when / do / take
it. / read the sporting pages every
morning, however, and follow the for
tunes Of the team. Old Cap Arson, !
believe, was the best batsman the game
ever knew. Just look at that grand
record Of his through HIS twcnty-odd
years OF experience and make UP your
mind for yourself. He could hit any
hing. He used an extremely heavy
bat, the limit both as to weight and as
to length and thickness, and swung
easily. 1t used to do our hearts good
to hear the crack when old Cap met
the bail squarely.
mike Kelly was one Of the greatest
players the game ever saw. He was
q faster man than Arson on the bases.
a fine hitter and a great catcher. Old
John Clarkson had just as much as
any Of the pitchers nowadays, except
the spit ball. He was n mar who
could actually make the ball curve up
ward on one Of those terrific overland
shoots of his. The man didn't live who
could hit that fast raise ball when
John had 1t working right. He had a
|peculiar pitching position, and bent
away down in delivering the ball. He
did not start it at the top Of his
height"

Impaction in Horses.

BY Geo. II. Glover. u. V. S. Colorado Agri.
cultural College. Fort Collins.
This is not an uncommon condi-
ton in horses, especially at this
time of year, and as it may easily
be prevented, word of advice in
this connection may not be amiss.
The impacted mass is usually
located far back in the digestive
tract, in the small colon. In study
ing the physiology of digestion we
find a very plausible reason for
this, AS the food reaches this
portion of the bowel it loses its
huid consistency, and, if coarse
and not well digested, is likely to
form serious obstruction.
This is not written for the pur-
pose of discussing the nature of
the disease or the treatment of the
same, but rather to sound note
of warming as to the cause of the
disease and how it may be prevent
ed. Treatment in large number
of cases is unavailing. No amount
of physic or rectal injection will
remove the impacted mass. Wheat
and barley straw, as well as alfalfa
hay that has become bleached by
exposure to the weather, are the
most prolific causes of this condi-
ton in Colorado Especially is
this true if the water supply is
limited With horses that are fed
some grain with fair quality of
hay with plenty of water and ex-
ercise, this condition is almost
unheard of. Remember that the
horses food is not cooked. and
therefore his teeth must be in good
condition to properly masticate his
food. 1t will well pay every far
mer to examine the teeth of all his
horses at least twice year. 1t is
worse than throwing feed away to
give it to horses that can neither
masticate nor digest it. Poor feed
and bad teeth are responsible for
three-fourths of all the colics and
other digestive disorders of the
horse. Horses are worth money.
1t pays to keep these things in
mind. Impaction in the horse is
usually fatal.

places fields were flooded and the
arroya threatening to cut new
channels. l.. A. Norland was
appealed to and in company with
A. w. Anderson went TO the La
Jara reservoir and partially closed
the valves allowing only slightly
more than normal flow to escape.
The flood in the arroya soon SUBJ
sided and after witnessing the sue
cess of the experiment, Mr.. Nor
land said he believed storage reser-
voirs would solve the problem of
averting the great floods which
destroy property along the banks
of the big rivers nearly every year.
Messrs. Anderson, Ord d Swope

$4,000 on the La Jara reservoir
and are experienced contractors
in that line. They have done the

we fear is to be realized in week
or two when genuine warm weather
sets in.

Orson Crowther, at work in
Alamosa, was teleponed for last
Saturday, owing to the illness of
his wife. An attack of the preva-
lent grip was the cause. We are
pleased to learn that Mrs. Crowther
is convalescing.
The public schools will close
next Friday but the program of
closing exercises will be given on
Wednesday evening of next week.
This will give more time for pre-
paration, the several departments
being now too busily engaged with
final examinations.
A picked base ball nine are
practicing in anticipation of a
contest next Saturday with the
Manassa club. Several on the
team exhibit good qualities as
players of the national game, but
recent stormy weather has pre-
vented any practice this week.

we take it, is beyond criticism as
to partiality, since the five judges
were all Manassa men and if any
favoritism were shown it would
naturally be for the students of
their own town. 1t is but fair to
