Sentinel Special Service.

Sentinel Special Service.
Denver, Oct. 29.-Secretary of
State James B. Pearce today rejected
the third party state ticket. His ac-
ton is based on that provisions of
the new law requiring candidates to
give notice of acceptance of nomina-
tions within five days after the same
has been rendered. Failure'to so file
the acceptances disqualified the tick
ct and compels the voters who desire
the vote for the third party candidates
to scratch their tickets accordingly.

LOCALS Win

Clearly outplaying the boys from
the hills, the Tigers put up a mag
nihcent game on the local field this
afternoon and won amid the shouts
OF encouragement and enthusiasm of
a large crowd of admirers. The visit
ors were not conversant with the new
rules, could not stand the end runs
of the locals and were powerless be-
fore the battering line smashes of the
local eleven. This clinches the cham
pionship of the western slope for the
junction. At the end of the second
period the score was 27 to to 0 in
cur favor, and at the time of going
TO press the visitors had no chance.

STlMS0N HEADS THE TICKET
Named for Governor by New York
Republicans.

Saratoga, n. Y, Sept. 29.-The Re-
publican state convention adjourned
after nominating ticket dictated by
Theodore Roosevelt and his so called
progressive adherents and adopting a
platform with direct nominations
plank drawn by the progressives. The
old guard met defeat utterly.
Henry L. Stimson was nominated
for governor. He drew public atten-
ton as the prosecutor of the sugar
trust.
Representative William S. Bennett
made a hard fight and received only
242 votes, against 684 for Mr.. Slim
son.
Following the first rout of the or
ganization came Colonel Roosevelt's
dramatic and successful battle for the
adoption of the platform of the pro-
gressives and his final nomination of
Mr.. Stimson.
The platform, as adopted, en-
dorses the administrations of Presi-
dent Taft and Governor Hughes; de-
clares that the Payne tariff law has
been a success and refers with ap-
prevail to the work of the last con-
gress. 1t pledges the continuance of
the state graft inquiry until all
wrongdoing capable of exposure shall
be brought to light"
The plank relating to direct pri~
maries is very brief, but admits of no
misconstruction. I'VE promise legis.
lation which will enact these prin.
ciples into law" is the pledge.
At the close of the convention
James S. Wadsworth, Jr., speaker of
the assembly, announced his withdraw.
al from the legislature, due to his per-
sonal views as to the length of time
during which a member of the assem-
bly, should be candidate for speaker,
and, if successful, hold that important
and difficult Office. He has been
speaker five years.
Mr.. Wadsworth would not say that
his retirement was due to the victory
of the progressives in the convention.
Colonel Roosevelt in a brief state
ment denied the existence OF any alli-
ance with w. R. Hearst of having in
duenced the selection of the ticket.

FALLING BODIES.
Their Velocity Varies According to tho
Force Of Gravity.

Their Velocity Varies According to tho
Force Of Gravity.
A man falling from a three story
building in New Orleans will not fall
as fast as he would if be were in New
York city. In fact, In hardly any two
places will he fall with the same
speed This is because as we go to-
ward the equator the force of gravity
gets less and less, and consequently
the acceleration Of falling body be-
comes less, and the force Of impact is
therefore less.
While it does not make very much
difference in the injury to a person
falling from height, it does make
difference in other things. Take rifle
and fire it exactly horizontally, and if
the gun is sixteen feet above the
ground, say. at New York the bullet
fired from such rifle will strike the
ground in exactly one second after it
leaves the rifle. If the bullet has a
horizontal velocity Of 1000 feet per
second it will strike the earth exactly
1000 feet away. Let us take the same
rifle to a place where the force Of
gravity is not the same as at New
York, but a good deal smaller. say
two-thirds smaller. We find that If
the gun is placed sixteen feet above
the ground. as before. and absolutely
horizontal the bullet will not fall the
sixteen feet in one second. but will
take over one and a half seconds to
fall, thus enabling the bullet to be in
the air during that length of time.
Therefore it will strike the ground
about 1,G00 feet away. Thus it is seen
that the range of rife is increased
as it is taken toward the equator
OF course there is no place on the
earth where the force of gravity is
two-thirds smaller than at New York.
but there are many places where the
difference is considerable enough to
affect slightly the range of rif1es.-Har-
per's Weekly.

FOUGHT TO A FINISH.
Tiger and Crocodile In Battle In the
Water.

Tiger and Crocodile In Battle In the
Water.
In India native went to battle in a
ravine. He was in the water up to
his neck when tiger on the hill
above gave leap toward its prey.
But the tiger had not calculated that,
since his victim was much lower than
himself. leap Of the right strength
Tor a horizontal range would carry
him far beyond his mark; consequent
" he fell some ten feet on the other
side.
Now, it happened that hungry croc-
odile was at the same time drawing
bee line under water toward the ma
i've When the crocodile had almost
come upon his prey he heard splash
ing his enormous Jaws down on the
tigers paw.
The bather nearly tainted with
fright when he saw the tiger fall into
the water, and for a few moments he
could not understand why the crea.
ture did not devour him. Why did he
persist in keeping one Of his paws IN
der water. beating savagely with the
other? And the water turned red!
Then all at once the assaults of the
tiger became more furious. and his
growls developed into roars. The huge
tail Of crocodile reared up out Of
the water. The obvious intention was
to pull the tiger under water and
drown him, and the tiger. understand
Ing this purpose, tried to Illustrate it
by beating the snout Of the crocodile
with his other paw But the snout
was too far down, and be left much
of his force on the surface of the wa
ter. His struggles became more and
more feeble, and at length he disap-
peared altogether, only a cluster of
bubbles remaining to show where he
had been.
His fight, however. had been a game
one. not entirely in vain, for when
the bodies of the two beasts finally
came to the surface it was seen that
the tiger had literally torn away the
whole front of the crocodile's face and
had blinded it so that its victory was
useless one.-Chicago Record-Herald.

Chosen Chairman Of New York
Republican Convention
OLD GUARD BADLY ROUTED
Bitter and Acrimonious Speech Pre-.
cedes the Taking Of the Vote
on Chairman.

Saratoga, N. Y, Sept. 2S.-Colonel
Theodore Roosevelt rode on the top
wave of victory, defeating Vice Pres
ident Sherman for temporary chair
man of the Republican state conven-
ton and bowling over the old guard
In the first engagement of series of
conflicts that are to come.
Colonel Roosevelt was in his ele-
ment. After he had named the mem
bers of the three important commit
tees and the convention had adjourned
for the day the colonel turned to the
newspaper men and remarked:
"You may recall that I said fraz-
zled. You may quote me on that"
At Troy the former president said
he would beat his opponents to fraZ.
zle. There were 1912 votes cast in
the convention, Of which Colonel
Roosevelt received 567 and Vice Pres.
ident Sherman received AS.
In his speech as temporary chair
man Colonel Roosevelt spoke feeling
ly of what President Taft had accom-
plished in his administration, saying
that the laws passed reflect high
credit upon all who succeeded in put
ting them in their present shape.
Colonel Roosevelt bitterly assailed
the "bosses," declaring that the differ
ence between a boss and leader is
that the leader leads and the boss
drives.
Much Feeling Expressed.
It was day of bitter and acrimoni
Gus speech. With the opening of the
convention State Chairman Woodruff
defined the position of the old guard
and announced that Vice President
Sherman had been selected for tempo
rary chairman by the state commit
tee. And then the real fight was on.
Colonel Abraham Gruber of New
York city had been selected to fire
the verbal hot shot for the old guard,
and his speech attacking the former
president was often broken and
drowned by Kisses and jeers.
The victory of Colonel Roosevelt in
the first counting of noses did not ap-
pear to dishearten the members of the
old guard, for they continued their
fight on the convention floor when the
progressives submitted resolutions
whereby the committees should be
made by representatives from each
conversational district tho members tO
be named by the temporary chairman
Seeing that this gave absolute pow
er to Colonel Roosevelt, Speaker
Wadsworth Of the assembly strongly
opposed the resolutions. He took the
position that each congressional dis
trict should name it's own member, as
had been done in previous Republican
committees for many years. The pro
gressives, however, were in the as
cendancy and the resolutions as
drafted by friends Of Mr.. Roosevelt
were carried.

TAFT SPEAKS AT new YORK
Makes Public His Definition of IRE
publican Progressiveness."


New York, Oct 1.-President Taft
tonight made public his definition of
Republican progressiveness" and
gave due notice of his friendly feeling
toward that wing of the party.
The occasion was his first political
address of the congressional cam
paign, delivered at the banquet of the
National League of Republican Clubs.
A progressive Republican" according
to the view of the chief executive, is
"one who recognizes existing and con-
crete evils and who is in favor of prac-
tical and definite steps to eradicate
them"
There was no "reading out" of in
surgents in the presidents speech. In
stead, he sought to leave the impress
sion that the work in congress had
been accomplished by united party
