SUGAR MAKING AT LAST.

The third time is the charm. After two disappointments the beet sugar industry was successfully launched yesterday without a flourish of trum- in part because of unforeseen inter ruption, natural causes, we may say, for the old Arizona dam went out at a critical moment But that was not an unavoidable disaster because under such a management as the present one, if it could not have been foreseen ample precaution would have been taken against it. In the former case the management took a gamb- ler's chance and lost. No chances are being taken under the new regime.
 The beet sugar business is now as firmly and as safely established as it is at Grand Junction or any other point where it has been made a sue cess and a blessing, furnishing en- ployment to large numbers of men and increasing the value of land within a wide surrounding area. That it will be more of a success here than in other favored communities where beet sugar factories are flourishing may easily be believed.
 Experiments have shown that the beets raised in this valley possess unexceTed saccharine qualities and the yield is greater than almost any where else.
 The effect of the operation of the factory will not of course be felt so much this year as next and not so much then as the next and so on until it's beneficial influence on the community will be full and complete.

MAKING TARGETS OF AUTOMO-
 BILES.

-hEANA-N6 A'l AL CAlO-
 BILES.
 A party of policemen, among whom was the chief, in Indianapolis the other evening gave chase in an auto mobile to another motor car which was supposed to be exceeding the speed limit. The chief seemed to be dissatisfied with the pace his own machine was making and he tried the trick of shooting with his revolver at the tires of the car ahead. What might have been expected happened The bullet missed the tire and hit the car producing a painful wound
 Mayor Bookwalter, says the dis patch, has ordered an investigation, holding that the shooting was not justified.
 We are glad the issue over the right of the police to shoot at automobil- ists or at the tires of their cars has been raised under such favorable con- ditions with no more serious conse- quences to anybody. The practice is in every sense atrocious in it's char acter and dangerous to the public.
 There is always not merely chance but probability that some innocent person will be hit. while there is not more than one chance in fifty that tire will be pUnctured by shooting under such conditions. More over, it is an atrocious outrage to treat a whole carload of passengers as fleeing felons in such a case. Even if the driver is the only occupant of the machine and he is clearly. break ing the speed law no officer has a right to draw a revolver on him-
 While nothing is to be said in de- fense of speed lunacy, there is equally no defense of the lunatics on the oth- CT side of the question who, by their incorporate and inflammatory denun- citations of automobiles. are creating state of feeling which is likely to produce serious results some day.
 This of course has to do merely with the offense of overspeeding and in no case would we recommend the shooting of an automobilist on sight

Ellen threw her white arms round

confusion, lit was about Halliday.
dreamt he came to me and said he
he loved me-"
"And you-what did you say?' asked
the younger girl. Ellen threw her
hair back from her eyes and looked at
her strangely, almost wonderingly.
"Say to him? l? Why, Damaris,
what could l say to him, but-but that
[ loved him, too?'
Then she realized that her half-wak-
ing confidence had reached her sisters
ears and she trembled exceedingly, for
she had hugged the truth to her own
heart with a jealous care.
"And you love him, Nell? Really and
truly-with all your hearth
why, of course" sighed Ellen
ecstatically. She thought that 1t was
good now to know that the secret was
out. A secret shared lost half It's
sweetness perhaps, but it was infinite-
ly easier to bear.
"Of course l love him, Damaris. i've

Damaris said nothing, but somehow
the injustice of her sisters words bit
deep into her own heart. What had
Ellen said? "You can never know, for
you've never given a thought to Lowell"
She wanted to scream aloud at the
irony of it all. Why, she loved Halll-
day Wentworth with a love that the
girl beside could never fathom, could
never understand! But-Ellen was in
love with him, and her health-per-
haps her very life, depended upon it.
What could she do? She asked herself
the question again and again, but no
answer was forthcoming.
But Fate was preparing a solution
of the difficulty already. 1t was less

than an hour later, just as the girls
sat down to the breakfast table, that
Ellen suddenly flung a hand to her
eyes and cried aloud.
IL can't see!" she whispered with a
frightened intonation. Everything
seems to be going round in wheels of
fire. And then there's an awful black
ness behind it all. Oh! Damaris, I'm
afraid" Damaris rose from her seat
and went round to her sisters side.

she whispered tenderly. Let me smooth
your forehead, Nell. So-that's better.
isn't it?'
Eyes, a little, but-ah!"-and then,
with an accent of slowly-growing hor-
ror:
I'm going blind, Damaris. I'm go
ing blind!'
Damaris left the room hurriedly and
summoned a servant. With all her
big heart she was wishing she mighr
bear her sisters bitter pain, but such
a course was an impossibility. She
lOnged for some tower of strength on
which to lean-some man in whom to
ccnhde, but there was no one. Their
father was in India, doing his coun-
trys work-and the two girls were
practically alone.
"Go and fetch Doctor Lissons," said
the girl when the servant appeared.
"Tell him to come at once. Miss Ell
len is not we'll" Then she went back
to her sisters side, and soothed her
anguish with loving words.
Los Angeles herald., 1909-12-19

The doctors face was very grave
when Damaris spoke of her sisters
pains. He questioned her closely, and
his manner gave but scant hope.
Half an hour later the examination
was over, and Damaris met Lissons
in the hall He saw the unspoken en-
treaty of her face, and led her to a
seat.
'I can give no hope" he said. "The
optic nerve is badly diseased. Your
sister tells me she had a severe fall
many years ago--it must be that.
There is no other cause. She will be
stcne-blind in less than a week. Those
shooting pains across her forehead
the flashes of light, the black specks
all these point to only one end.

Manufacturing War Relics.

With the approach of the centen-
airy celebrations of the famous
Tyrolean fight for freedom a new
industry has been created at Tyrol
Every veterans association and rife
club in the land is preparing some
kind of festival at which historic guns
and flags and other emblems will be
displayed Unfortunately. these rel.
les have become rather scarce in the
hundred years which have elapsed
since the war, but undaunted by this
tritiing circumstance the ingenious
peasantry are setting to work &c
make their own relics. In this enter
prise they have developed remarkable
ingenuity. A new flag is used for
sometime as a buster, and then after
being carefully smeared over with
grease on both sides is put up in the
garnet where the grain is stored In
a few days the mice have made some
artistic bullet" holes in the flag,
which is then hung out in the garden.
The sun does the rest, and a faded
and tattered flag of really venerable
appearance is the result. The village
blacksmiths have shown no less clev-
erness in making historic cannon, and
there's no reason to fear that the
centenary celebrations will suffer
from any lack of relics from the war.
