TIN BOILERS
A New Year

We have some extra good tin boilers with
copper bottoms. Each sheet of TIN used
is thoroughly inspected before using.
Only such brands of tin are used as are
known to carry the heaviest coating. The
handles are heavy and stand out easy to
get hold Of. The covers are made just as
we'll as on the highest-priced copper
boilers. Cheap tin boilers rust quickly.
Often times the damage done to fine gar

A SYNOPSIS OF DIR. G. W. BRANCHS
MEDICAL CAREER.
He matriculated in the University Of Edln-
burgh in MAY, 1899. HIS Senior Cambridge
Local Certificate exempted him from the
Naturalization Examination, except in Dy-
nanties. This had not been included among

time, and was granted the degrees Of II. b.

medical student was Anthony. As soon as
he had obtained his degrees, he was made y

WHEAT in TEXAS

Chicago, May 25.-Private advices
received here state that the harvest
ing of wheat began in three counties
in Texas today and the yield will be
IA to Is bushels to the acre on an av-
erage. H. E. Rycroft, Chicago grain
expert, however, declared this esti-
mate to be so per cent too high, as a
prolonged drouth in the Lone star
state precluded such yield. The am
nouncement did not affect the prices
in Chicago materially as May wheat
on the board Of trade early sold at a
new high record price, 1s5 IA cents
The latest completed statistics make
the yield of wheat in the United
States in 1908. 6s4.os7. 900 bushels. In

authorities, Deputy Sena lost no time
| in getting him behind the bars.
Since his arrest, the man who
gives his name as Jas. w. Williams,
and says his home is at Custer City,
Okla, has been non-communicatiye,
Iuntil today. When he learned what
| he was being held for, he became
somewhat nervous, and when told that
he was wanted for murder and that
his name was Bay Gordon, he ex-
lbibited great surprise.
In an interview with an Optic rep
ITesentative at the county jail this
morning, he talked rather freely, and
said if necessary he would give his
history. He stated that he had been
working on farm in Arizona, where
he had sick sister, and that he was
was on his way home when arrested.
He asked the officers If they thought
|he was the Gordon, and when told
that they did. he paled, but beyond
this showed no outward signs of
alarm.
The suspect tallies almost exactly
with the description sent out by
Sheriff Mcmillan Of Pueblo. He has
a scar over his eye, and a wire rope
scar on his forearm, which are par
Tticular1y mentioned in the circular.
He is six feet tall, weighs between
159 and 100 pounds, has blue eyes
and brown hair and is smooth shaven,

who was used as stool pigeon by
the sheriff, claims to have secured an
admission from the suspect that he
was good rider and a former mem
ber of the Carver show, and if true,
this is another very damaging thing
against him.

changed between the Pueblo sheriff
and Sheriff Romero, each tending to
verify Gofdin's Identification. This

ENGINEERS SURVEYING
SITE FOR RESERVOIR

Step by step, the reservoir project
is nearing the stage of absolute GER
tainty, regardless of the fact that the
anvil chorus is loud in proclaiming
that nothing will come of the enter
prise
L. l. Stimson, chief engineer for
D. A. Camfield. together with Guy
Watson, George Woodbury., John
CamfieId and Jured Brush of Greeley,
Colo, arrived in the city last night,
and this afternoon they started out to
the reservoir site to begin the work
of surveying the reservoir and ditch
es. This work will probably require
ten days or two weeks, as they will
make very thorough examination of
the project. from which they can
make very close estimate as to the
cost of construction. If Mr.. Stimson
reports favorably, there is practically
no doubt whatever about the work
being taken up and pushed to early
completion.
Inasmuch as the government engi-
neers have on three different occa-
sions pronounced the project feasible,
there can be little doubt regarding the
conclusions Mr.. Stimson will form. 1t
is not unreasonable to suppose that
within a year water win be flowing
in the bitches.

BASES ACTION ON CRUELTY
EXPOSED TO HARDsHiPs AND
DANGERS OF REMOTE
WILDERNESS.
MADE HER LIFE MISERABLE
HANDSOME SOCIETY WOMAN
GRAVES GAY RoULEvARDs
AND THEATERs.

Los Angeles, Calf, May 25.--Tht
divorce oo1rts of this city will be
treated to thrilling stories of hunting
adventures in the divorce suit of Mrs
H. s. Reed, of Hollywood. society
matron and wife of H. s. Reed, presi
dent of bank in Santa Fe, New
Mexico. owner Of valuable farne lands
in the Imperial Valley and the holder
of much Los Angeles realty.
Mrs. Reed asks for decree on the
grounds of cruelty; this cruelty ac-
cording to Mrs. Reed, lies in the al
legation that her husband would rath-
er hunt big game n remote regions
and expose her to the hardships and
dangers Of the wilderness than settle
down to happy home life.
TWO hunting trips through the
mountain SHOWS, numerous encount-
ers with fierce Alaskan bears, third
expedition into the practically unex-
plorel regions of Lower California,
where the rattlesnakes and mountain
lions made life worry and peace Of
mind an impossibi1ity, will figure
largely in the testimony. Mrs. Reed
says she would rather have pretty
little home of her own than travel
about in the wilds and kill the beasts
to be found there.
Honeymoon on Peak.
They were married little over two
years ago in Denver, the bride being
resident of that city. She says she
knew she was to have surprise as a
honeymoon trip, and expected pleas
ant one; It was different from any
thing she had anticipated. The cool
promenades of Southern Italy were
not for her, the gay bou1evards and
theaters of Paris were not destined
to be graced by her presence. Neither
was she to linger in the beautiful
gardens of Vienna and listen to the
soft music of the royal bands.
The honeymoon trip was strenuous,
she insists, because the place of re-
treat selected by the groom was the
top Of peak surrounded by clouds
and snow banks and peopled by tim
Der wolves, bears. canned beans and
hard tack.
At least Mrs. Reed alleges that such
was the case. She was close to ma
ture, but she didn't feel the call of the
wild. She longed for that little home
