taken the place formerly occupied
by stiff ''still-life" water colors and
cardboard "mottoes." But h e
spirit is unchanged. The same
good natured rivalry and pride in
the products of ones own farm, gar

Neighborly emulation is as strong
a motive force for progress now as
ever it was. To-day the county
fair is more than merrymaking.

In another column of this issue
appears the abstract of the assess
ment of Conejos county for 1909,
which in itself speaks volumes for
the improvement of the county in
twelve months. 1t will be noted
that the increase in the tax valua-
tion is nearly three-quarters of a
million dollars and as the rate the
assessed valuation is based upon
is but one-third of the actual value
of the property assessed, it will be
seen that the county's increase in
wealth is really more than two mil
lions of dollars. No wonder our
banks deposits are increasing heav-
lily and our farmers are discarding
the trusty, if easy-going, horse for
automobiles.

instead of resorting to that shop

One of the first things stranger

of and which our home people

splendid condition of our wagon
roads. Barring a few months in
the year our country roads are
veritable pavements, as hard and
smooth as a cement walk, as level
as a plane, and during the brief
period of time they are at their
worst people from the east consider
them good roads. That it has cost
considerable to put them in so ex-
cellent shape is quite true, but the
people of the county fully appre-
ciate that fact and are more than
satisfied with the methods and ex
penditures of our county commiss-
toner's, who spend every dollar pos
sible on the roads and still main

This is the time of year when the
farmer and his folks monopolize
the whole dad-gummed limelight,
with the county fair as their play
ground, Just as they have from
time immemorial. Formerly the
tenderfcet from the towns and
cities stood in open-mouth wonder
at the exhibits of pumpkins and
squashes bigger than hogsheads,
watermelons and cantaloupes in
piles larger than haystacks, gram
and grasses of varied and luxurious
growths, fine horses and sleek
cattle, fat hogs and highly bred
sheep, fresh country butter and
home made jellies and preserves,
patchwork LOG cabin" and crazy"
quilts in gala array, etc. And SO it
is to-day, as great an institution as
ever it was, different only in detail.

COLLISION AT SEA:
STEAMER SINKS
Nearly One Hundred Are Drowned Between
Java and Singapore When Vessel Sinks.

Singapore, Nov. 14.-The mail
steamer La Seyne of the Messager-
les maritimes service, running be-
tween Java and Singapore, and on
her way to this port, collided early
this morning with the steamer Onda
OF the British-India line and sunk
two minutes later.
Several European passengers, in
cludlng Baron and Baroness Benicz-
XII, the captain of the La Seyne, five
European officers and SO officers
comprising native passengers and
members Of the crew were drowned.
The rescue Of 81 persons, practical
ly from the jaws Of shoal sharks.
formed a thrilling incident of the
wreck. The accident occurred in a
thick haze at 4 o'clock in the morn
ing. The vessels were steaming at
good speed and the La Seyne was

cut almost in half. There was no
time for panic nor for any attem t
on the part Of the officers to get out
the boats. A majority of those on
board were caught in their berths
and carried down with the vessel.
The force of the collision brought
the Onda almost to dead stop. En-
gines were slowed and boats were
lowered.
The rescue work proved thrilling
for not only were the rescuing par
ties lmpeded by darkness but shoals
OF sharks were already attacking
those clinging to pieces of wreckag-
es. Sixty-one were finally dragged
into the boats and brought by the
Onda to this port.
Many of these had been bitten by
sharks, several being severely in
jured.

Marvellous Spectacle Is Witnessed
On War Office Grounds

London, Nov. 1.-THE new mono

principle of a gyroscope, and which
was first shown here in model form 18
months ago before the Royal Society
of Engineers by its inventor, Louis
Brennan, c. B., received its public
demonstration on full scale yester-
day on the war office grounds, near
Chatham.
The guests witnessed spectacle as
marvellous and as revolutionary from
the standpoint of transportation, as
that which the aeroplanes have fur
n;shed in the last two years. They saw
a car 40 feet long, 10 feet wide and
IS feet high, weighing % tons, mount

about curves Of all sorts and carrying
90 passengers with safety as complete
as, and vibration far less, than the
