HUSBAND AND WIFE RUNNING AROUND
 IN CIRCLES

Danbury, July Elf Harry Chap man, of New York, who has a sum- mer home at Lake Waramaug, ever leaves Mrs. Chapman again without telling her where he is going every married woman in Danbury will lose a bet with her husband. The local police sincerely hope MT. Chapman will avoid such lapses, for they were running around in circles most of Sun- day night as a result of his over sight. One local chauffeur received thorough but undeserved thrashing, another was locked up, the police of all adjacent towns were watching for "a stolen automobile, which had not been stolen at all, and MT. Chapman spent some uncomfortable hours in cell.
 Mr. and Mrs Chapman drove from their Lake Waramaug cottage Sunday evening to Ridgebury, a few miles outside Danbury, and visited friends living there. During their stay MT. Chapman remembered that one of the tires of his machine needed repairs and concluded to run over to Dan bury and have it mended. He did so, but forgot to advise his wife of his in tention.
 When she learned that her husband had left the house she became incens- ed. Deaf to the pleadings of her host, she said she would walk after him
 
 the road she was passed by an auto mobile driven by William Pearson, Danbury chauffeur, who offered to drive her the rest of the way and she accepted. In the meantime her Ridgebury friends had telephoned to the garage in Danbury for which Mfr Chapman had started and had advis- ed him of his wife's departure on foot.
 MT. Chapman at once jumped into his machine and hurried out toward Ridgebury to meet her. When he met Pearson's car saw his wife in it and spoke to her she ignored him. When he begged her to get into his auto mobile she told him she did not know him and asked Pearson to drive on Pearson did so and was pursued hot iy by MT. Chapman.
 MT. Chapman soon was able to head off the other machine. He jumped out of his own and thrashed Pearson Then he compelled Mrs. Chapman to get into his own car. Pearson, whose head was buzzing with the puzzle of it all, as we'll as the raps he had received, hurried to the police and Chapman was arrested as he passed through Danbury. He was permitted to drive to the police station, and his wife remained in the automobile while her husband was arraigned on Pear sons charge of assault.
 Mrs. Chapman, becoming tired of waiting summoned Frederick Gay, a chauffeur, ordering him to drive her to her home, sixteen miles away. He says she told him that the automobile was hers and her chauffeur had disap- peared. Gay drove Mrs. Chapman away about fifteen minutes before some of MT. Chapmans friends ap- peared and furnished bail for his ap- pearance.
 Then he came out, only to discover his wife and his automobile gone. He was properly warm about, everybody says who saw him. He rushed back

POWER co. IMPROVEMENTS
Expenditure of $25O,O0O Being
 Made on New Milford Plant

New Milford. July 27-The New Mil ford Power Company. a subsidiary of the New York. New Haven 6 Hartford Railroad Company, is making changes at its plant involving the expenditure of a quarter of a million dollars. The chief improvement will be the con- struction of a large reservoir with a surface measurement of nearly eight acres, at a point where the Hume drops 100 feet down the hillside to the power plant A core dam, 700 feet long and at places thirty feet deep, will hold back the water. This reservoir will not only permit storage of water when a part of the plant is idle, but will also do away with the necessity of drawing water through the canal at a rate rapid enough to cause erosion of the canal banks.
 Other improvements include the re- placing of the old wooden bridge across the canal near the Bulls Bridge cene- tery with a steel one. About 200 men are employed in the work.

and reported. and the police, inves- tigatfng. learned that Gay had driven the machine and that he had no chauf- feur's license Requests for his ar rest were telephoned all around, ana when Gay, driving Mrs. chapman passed through New Milford he was arrested and brought back to Dan bury. Mrs. Chapman remaineo III New Milford.
 In court yesterday the whole story was told, and Pearson, seeing now he had placed himself innocently in false position, withdrew his charge against Mr. Chapman. MT. Chapman paid s25 in settlement of the charge against Gay.

The. Hartford Courant appears to be- lieye that Connecticut Republicans stand about half way between the ultra Insurgent and the ultra stand batter, and have mo use for Cannon, little for Aldrich and as little for La Toilette"
 There is an old saying to the effect that he who is not with us. is against US. It is very applicable to the re- forms sought by the Insurgents. The party which affects to find a middle ground on the question of Cannonism, or of physical valuation of railroads IS proper basis for rates, or of tariff revision downward. or of several other pending issues. is really against each Rrd all of them and trying to dodge a r traight issue.

Rock Island has
Mofat Road

There is no doubt but what the Rock Island has
secured control of the Moffat Road. The proposed
road from Texhoma to Lamar and to Limon is also
a Rock Island move. A line is projected from Wa
tonga Oklahoma, to Texhoma, which will be about
l6O miles long, and when the Mofat Road is com
pleted the line from Lmon to Watonga is also
finished the Rock Island will have a line from Salt
Lake City to Galveston and Memphis and fine
connection with New Orleans. This move is made
to head off Jim Hill in his Gulf to Northwest Pa
cific coast monopoly by the absorption of the Colo

whole affair there evidence of any plan to impose

COWBOY OR SHEEPHERDERp
The Tragedy of the wyoming Range

Wyoming cattemen have seen the hand-writ-
ing on the wall Sheep is to be king of the
open range, and the annual wool clip will be
golden fleece. For the days of the cow country
hre numbered; where the despotic outfit
boss ruled his domain grandly, the flock master,
by right of invasion, has proclaimed sovereignty
and sway until he shall in turn be driven out by
homesteaders and immigrant farmers.
There was more than murder and arson in the
celebrated Spring Creek raid in the Tensleep
country April 2, 1909, when seven armed cattle
men rode in the night, down on sleeping sheep
camp and began a battle which ended with the
death of three defenders of the camp, the cree
nation of two bodies in burned wagon, and
destruction of hundreds of frightened sheep.
1t was the law of the range for The fiocks
were over the dead line marking division of the
country for sheep and CATTLE and the conflict
was in accordance with the ethics of the open.
But heavy-h handed legislative mandates, for
once in Wyoming range history, reached over
and above the law of the cattle kings, and
sought to punish where, hitherto complacent
communities had condoned and ignored.
The state penitentiary at Rawlins today holds
five of the seven raiders, one serving a life SEN
tence, two with penalties of twenty years each
and two whose immurement will be but three
years each sentenced after confessed participal
ton in that dreadful nights orgy of massacre
and destruction. George C.. Morris in the Feb
ruary Pacific Monthly
