MARS UNCHANGED,
SAYS PROF. HALL
Naval Observatory Astrono-
mer ContradictS Statements
In English Journal.

That no great changes in the appear
ance Of the planet Mars. which is now
closer to the earth than it has been
for fifteen years, have lately appeared
was stated today by Prof. Asaph Hall,
ir,. who is in charge of the large tele-
scope at the Naval Observatory.
The journal of the British Astronom-
icai Association yesterday printed a
statement announcing the almost total
obliteration of the well-known mark
ings of the planet.
Prof. Hall has been making observa-
tions lately of the planet, and has noted
the usual seasons which are produced
by the melting of ice at the Pole as
the planet swings round toward the
sun.
Some of the British astronomers de-
veloped the theory that the recent ap-
pearance of the big sun spot Occasioned
electrical disturbances on the red plan
ct which destroyed life there existing.
Prof. Hall can see no reason for think
ing that any change has taken place
at this time.
Another theory has it that the yellow
mist spreading over the planet is the
result of an attempt on the part of
Martians to signal to the earth

Train. to Use WddIer Tunnel.

Advices are received from George
town that the Vidler tunnel through
the Argentine pass, originally design
ed for mining purposes, will be rush
ed to completion so that trains OF
the Argentine Central railroad may
use 1t to reach Montezuma. This will
open up for paying operation SOM
of the finest mining properties in the
state. Heretofore the cost of trans
portation has retarded the district
to such an extent that most OF the
mines have lain idle.
The Vidler tunnel has been driven
from the Atlantic side of the coLti-
mental divide for $500 feet, while
from the Pacific side it has been ad-
vanced for 700 feet, making total
of 4,500 feet. The entire length of the
bore is only 1900 feet, leaving $500
feet Of ground to be broken. By driv-
ing from both sides of Argentine
pass, headway should result at the
rate of from twelve to fourteen feet
per day, allowing of the completion
of the big undertaking within from
eight to nine months
The Argentine Central railroad now
runs to the portal of the tunnel, hav.
ing been constructed to that point
three years ago for the delivery o.
supplies.
During the last two weeks "A. H.
Osborne has been making a survey
of the property to determine if the
two tunnels will connect on the level
He has completed his work and 1t is
stated that both bores will be on
level.
With the resumption of work upon
this property electric power will be
used, as a contract has been entered
into with the United Hydro Electric
company of Georgetown. The line Of
the Central Colorado Power company
passes within a short distance of the
portal of the big tunnel and a trans
mission line has been run to connect
with the compressors.
The owners Of the Argentine Cent.
raj will proceed with the extension
Of the road from Montezuma as soon
as trains have reached there, the
destination being Keystone, to con-
meet with the Colorado G. Southern
In that event short route will be
furnished to Denver for all the ores
