The knowledge of telling ripe wa
ter melon comes mainly by experience
and observation. 1t il often claimed
that when the little curl or tendril on
the stem is dead, the melon is ripe; If
green, the melon is also green. This is
not altogether reliable sign. The flat,
dead sound emitted by the melon when
thumped with the finger is also all in
dication of ripeness. If on turning the
melon over and exposing the under
side, the white blotches are found vel
lowish, rough and warty with the sur
face sufficiently hard to resist the fin
ger nail when scratched, 1t is another
sign of ripeness. After the melon looks
ripe and thumps as If it were ripe and
If OH pressing it down the interior APP
pears to give and this is also accom-
panied by slight crisp cracking, the
melon is almost sure to be ripe. Mel
ons that are to he shipped should not
be put to this latter test.

BARRIERS Must Obtain Licenses.

With the determination of placing
the barber business on higher plane
in Colorado, the board of barber exami-
ners, recently appointed by Governor
John F. Shafroth, will enforce the full
letter and spirit of the law passed by
the last legislature. Every barber shop
hereafter will be required to keep per-
fectly sanitary, and the BARRIERS will be
compelled to use every means to safe
guard their customers under the penal
ty of having their licenses revoked.
All BARRIERS who have been in Colo
RADIO prior to August 8, are entitled to a
license on payment of fee of 81, ac-
companying an affidavit setting fourth
data as to their citizenship. BARRIERS
who arrive after August 8, or who may
arrive in the future, win be required to
pass an examination and will also be
required to make affidavit that they
have been engaged at the trade for
three years.
Apprentices are required to take out
an apprentice license, and will not be
given the regular journeyman license
until they have served three years.
BARRIERS living in the state prior to
August 6 who fail to make application
for license before September 8, will be

THAT Mayor johnson of Cleve-

pity. For he is a man at once
sincere, honest, and public spirited.
1t is no doubt difficult for his
friends to understand why Cleve-

scheme of municipal street car SER
vice. One explanation is that he
tired the people out. An Ameri-

Grand Junction, Colo, Aug. 27.-Ed
lillian, a notorious horse thief aud ex-
convict, who broke Jail at Delta, Colo,
on the night Of July %, was recaptured
today in Monticello, Utah. Hillan,, in
escaping at Delta, had hand-to-hand
encounter with Sheriff Williams,
whom he nearly murdered. The
officers In the intermountain country
had exerted extraordinary efforts to
rearrest him. He was recognized to-
day at Monticello by formal pal, who
betrayed him to the officers. Sheriff
Williams left Delta tonight to get the
prisoner.
Immediately following the announce
ment by TIL omas F. Walsh, million
sire mining man, that he had deposited
a substantial sum with the School OF
Mines at Golden to defray the expenses
of testing samples of ore believed to be
pitchblende and carrying radiuin,
comes the declaration by Carl Hextus,
a well known prospector of the Cripple
Greek district, that pitchblende ore can
be found in paying quantities near that
city. as samples discovered some time
ago have been pronounced genuine by
experts. The market value of radium
is nine million dollars an ounce.

Live Stock Market.

Denver Union Stock Yards, August
3O.-The receipts Of cattle here were
were fair last week and under good de-
mand the market ruled active from
day to day at strong prices, despite the
fact that the eastern markets were 25
to 35 cents lower. Compared with a
week ago the market here closed strong
to q dime higher on good steers and 10
to Is cents higher on fat cows. Good
fieshy feeders were fully steady but
palmer stuff weak to little lower.
The Hunter steers from Wyoming sold
at 1910 on Friday and bulk Of good
killing steers went at 800 to "a 50
during the week. Good Wyoming
cows brought $4.OO, good cows from
Grand Valley in western Colorado sold
at 1915 and most of the good fat COWS
offered brought $3. 20 to So 65. Medium
cows sold at $2.75 to $3l5 and stock
cows at 80 90 to 81 rs according to quail
ity. The demand for stock cows are
strong as number of northern Colora-
do feeders were here looking for sup
plies. Bulls sold firm to higher at So 25
to $500. Veals plentiful and lower.
Feeder and stocker demand very good
but not many here. The few on sale
were disposed of readily at $3.50 to "a. 10
quality just fair, with choice stuff quo

the good fieshy steers are holding up
well but palmer stuff is weak owing to
eastern declines caused by dry weather
injuring pastures and corn and forcing
large numbers of thin cattle prema-
turely on the market. Receipts today
were 4 900 head here, mostly rangers.
Demand good and market about steady
with close of last week
Hog demand was strong all week and
good hogs sold today at $7.s5 and $3.50
or about AS high as any time during
the week. The receipts were very good
and the market in nice shape with
prices paid here relatively higher than
those prevailing at the eastern markets.
The sheep demand was good and
prices held up well. Good lambs sold
at $7.25 to $7.35, ewes at $4.OO to $4.35,
and yearlings at $500. A string of
feeding lambs went at $6.25 freight

river Is going down and the danger is
over. Six hundred and fifty bodies
have been recovered, one entire quar-
ter was destroyed and 1900 people are
homeless. The water mains are useless
and the city is consequently without
drinking water, neither is there light
nor street car service for the power
plant is seriously damaged. 1t will be
impossible to resume train service for
week and the city is threatened with
a food famine. The slaughter houses
have been destroyed. Ten thousand
persons are being fed on bread, coffee
and soup by the municipal authorities
and the American consulate is giving
food to all who apply. Thousands have
taken refuge in the cathedral and
churches. Many adobe houses soa ked
by the rain are falling causing some
additional loss of life. The railroad
situation is deplorable. The total loss
to the railroad by washout is half a
million dollars, eighteen blocks of resi-
dence and business houses in Monte
rey are washed away. The greatest loss
of life was caused by the giving away
of the reservoir dam. Monterey is situ-
ated in "a cup like valley surrounded
on three sides by the Steel mountains,

The Safe Trade of Flying.

The worlds first race meet closed
with an American the winner Of
the short distance speed contest,
and France ahead in everything
else. 1t was week which proved
the entire practicability of aerial
navigation, and which proved as
we'll that there are but two nations
in the field with heavier-than- air
machines than are worth consider
ing. America has the Wrights
and Curtiss. France has Della
grange, and Bleriot, and Latham.
and Farman-the last of whom is
swearing picturesque Gaelic oaths
because the Associated Press mis-
took him for an Englishman. The
other nations are simply not in it
at all. If that phrase were slang
once, we submit that it is SO no
longer. for sitnation has arisen
which no other group of words will
express.
Yet the partition Of the air be,
tween the two great republics is
not the most remarkable feature of
the week. Popular imagination
haa invested the fields of upper air
with thousand terrors, and has
wondered more at the daring than
at the ingenuity of the aerial admi-
rails. Yet the aeroplane race meet
has closed without single death,
nor even single serious injury.
Judged by results, flying isn't half
as dangerous as playing football
and cannot be named in the same
week with other sports. The auto
mobile races at Indianapolis cost
seven lives and we really don't know
how many broken arms and legs
and skulls.
Things are seldom what they seem,
Skim milk oft parades as cream"
And evidently one can't estimate
the real danger of an undertaking
by its novelty or apparent violation
of the laws of prudence.
1t was a wonderful week, a week
which realized the dreams of thirty
centuries, and opened, though it
has not surveyed, the only highway
to the uttermost parts of the earth.
The events at Rheims have con-
firmed the world in the doctrine
taught by the mathematicians, that
the heavier.than-air machine is the
only one which holds possibilities
worth serious study. At Rheims
the aeroplanes made speeds of forty
seven miles per hour. This is
about seven miles more than the
highest theoretical speed of the di-
rigible balloon, like the Zeppelin,
in still air. In other words, the
aeroplane has already passed beyond
anything the dirigible can hope to
attain, and the development of the
aeroplane has just begun. If pos
sible, speed is anything you like to
name up to 200 miles per hour.
