docks resignation, Mr.. Bennett has
charge of the horticulture as well as
his own special subjects. Mr.. Bennett
said this morning that the 'nimas
valley was remarkable since IL is the
only place in the state where they
have never had a fruit failure. He
also made the statement that he did
not see why the land should not com.
mand as big a price as that around
Grand Junction, since II is just as
good in every particular with the ex
ception that il does not lie in as
large tracts. Land in the Animas
valley should be worth $4,000 since
that is what good orchard bearing land
around Grand Junction sells for. Just
this past summer, land was sold in
that vicinity for $4,000 per acre, and
not considered exorbitant at that The
oak brush land with just ordinary wa
ter facilities sells around Grand juno
tion for 5000 per acre There is some
land up the valley with better oppor

cultivated. It would seem that the
owners of those tracts have small
fortune ready TO their hand.

expireds-th month and now the
copncil has stepped In and held UP
the renewal, TT
The council passed al. ordinance
prohibiting the breweries from
holding more than two licenses and
now the alleged proprietors have
made the application. Whether
the breweries pay over. the $1,000 or
not iss matter the council should
investigate. 3s s
The renewal OF the licenses WIS
stopped last night by Councilman
Ostrander, who raised the poi..t
that it shouii be determined wheth-
er there were 240 or more saloons
in the city at present The license
committee was not informed on
this point and the matter was then
deferred.
The records of the city comptrol-
Ter show that there are 240 saloons
in the city, counting the four for
which licenses have been asked.
This is the limit placed by the
council. The four held up are for
the Orpheum bar, Riverside and
Bernard, which expired yesterday !;
Pullman bar, at Bernard street,
which expired March Is; 20S Stew
ems street, which expired March
10; and 100 Stevens street, which
expired March 10. All of these Ii.
censes were formerly granted to H.
Boeseman of the brewing company
In view of the fact that the
granting of these licenses will not
place the total in excess of 240, the
chances are the licenses will be
granted. All Of the applications
are now made in the names Of the
alleged proprietors. If the council
revekes the license of Kid ScaleI
lthere will be room for another new
| license.

EMPLOYMENT MEN
FULL OF VIRTUE

The employment offices were
full of promises last night when the
matter of reducing the license from
5000 to 500 a year was before the
council. Not only did the employ
ment men, through their attorney,
Alex Winston, agree to put up a
$1,000 bond to rtpay lahorers who
are sent out to work and find no
jobs waiting for them, but also to
pay the men wages for the time
consumed in making the trip.
This looks like a big concession,
unless the same old subterfuges
are resorted to as in the past, by
various concerns. The council evil

enforced and passed it.

"CYTY OF THE MSANEr

NEW YORK, March 24.-One of
the most remarkable places in
Europe, of which no tourist on
pleasure bent ever takes notice, is
the City of the Insane by which
name Gheel, near Antwerp, has
been known for generations.
About 1900 men and women, af-
flicted with insanity in all its
forms, live there, and have happy
being as the guests" of the in
habitants, who know by experience
how to treat the unfortunate ones.
In the streets, in the places of
amusement. the cafes, the work
shops, these patients may be found,
and nowhere is there the remotest
suggestion of restraint apparent.
The board ranges from 240 to
2400 marks a, year, and, no matter
how small the amount may be, the
patient is always the favored mem
Der of the family. He has the first
right to the most comfortable chair
and the head of the table belongs
to him. He receives the most at
tention, and this he learns to ap-
preciate and to endeavor to main
tain by living down his illness.
Even the children know how to
treat the demented people. The
dangerous ones are sent to another
settlement and to institutions. 1t
is wonderful how considerable, care
full and kind the simple people are
toward their charges, and a peep
into the community would probably
terrify physicians who had never
heard of and could not appreciate
the good which is being done in
this City of the Insane"

In Klein's play, "The Lion and

words. Klein received 100000
from the play. or a little in excess
of 81 a word. 1t took him year

two years to earn the half million.
Thus, in three years, Klein earned

over three times the presidents

1t is encouraging. for those who
