in much the same class as that which
wrought such awful destruction in

that prevented what would have been
almost repetition of the Messina dis

Many Ps+oIes Are Held Up.

Many Paroles Are Held Up.
Quite a number of prison board
paroles came to the governor for ap-
prevail the othei, day. 1t was not
good day for paroles and many of
them were set aside for further con-
sideration
Among those approved by the gov
srnor were:
Preston Phillips; burned resort
in Riley county five years ago.
William Rose; stole an overcoat at
Argentine two years ago.
Martha Williams; stabbed a man
who had threatened to kill her at lola
five years ago because she asked him
20 pay his board bill.
Arma Maetzey; sentenced in Bar
ton county for stealing some clothes
from house in which she worked.
Frank Harris; forged papers in
Cherokee county; served nearly two
years, and the trial judge and county
attorney recommended his parole.
Emma Martin; committed larceny
IN LeaYenworth county two years ago.
The governor did not approve the
recommendation of Mrs. Mary Gasso-
way of Lyon county, who was con-
victed of being accessory to an as
sault. He also withheld his approval
Of the parole of Lizzie Becker of Rus
drowning an infant in a well.

The ears were uniform and of medium ,
size, the form departed somewhat
from the broadness and compactness
Of the typical Poland-China but not
so much so as to sacrifice maturing
and fleshing qualities; the bone was
medium and the quality throughout
was very fair.
Like results have been obtained by
crossing boars of other breeds on the
Large Black sows. None of these
cross-breeding experiments have as
yet been checked by duplication and
no feeding experiments for testing the
cross-bred progeny have yet been at
tempted. For western conditions it is
probable that an infusion of Large
Black blood would be of more benefit
to the Poland-China than to any other
breed. Results so far attained indi-
cate that the early maturing qualities
of the corn-belt favorite can be rer
tanned in a great measure and his
vigor, prolif1cacy and rustling quail
ties much improved by the cross.
If the Colorado specimens are fairly
representative of the breed, the Large
Blacks are the most prepotent of all
breeds of swine.

ter can prevent the tunnel taking
from the river all the water needed.
Has Immense Capacity.
A few statistics of this tremendous
project are worth setting forth. The
tunnel is $4,000 feet long, and II by
13 feet inside measurement. The main
canal is 80 feet wide at the bottom
and SO feet wide at the top, and the
average depth of the water is ten
feet. The capacity is 1900 cubic feet
of water a second. After the water
leaves the west portal of the tunnel
it is conducted through IL miles OF
canal to the Uncompahgre. There is
a drop of PA feet in this distance, and
this great fall will be utilized for ere
ating power. A series of concrete
drops has been constructed and the
immense body of water rushing over
them is capable of generating at least
10, 900 horse power, which will be util.
lied mitigating the entire Uncompah-
gre valley by electricity.
The cost of the tunnel and distrib-
uting canals is over $5,000,00G, and
perpetual water rights will be sold to
actual settlers at about $35 an acre.
