Death Is Result of Sundays Fire

Last Sunday morning the J. w. Olli-
yer home burned to the ground
with all the furniture and fixtures.
Mrs. oliver was kindling the fire with
coal oil when it became ignited from
some Goals that were in the stove and
the two-gallon can from which she was
pouring the oil exploded. Mrs. OLIVER
was saturated with oil from the explos-
ion and the whole room was in flames
within very few seconds. The family
consisting of Mr.. and Mrs. oliver and
three little children were in the room
at the time of the explosion and i'm
mediately rushed out of doors. Mrs.
Oliver was all in flames when Frank
Bickel, who lives next door. reached
the scene. He threw his coat ground
her head, threw her to the ground and
tried to extinguish the flames with
dirt until Mrs. Bickel arrived with q
piece of carpet with which they tried
to smother out the flames, but Mrs.
Olliver's clothing was 30 saturated with
oil that it was impossible to check the
fire before she was burned 20 badly
all over the body that death could be
the only result. She was taken to the
Bickel home and was conscious for 4
short time, but the reaction from the
burns caused her SO much agony and
pain that she became unconscious and
remained 80 until the time of her death
which occurred about five o'clock in
the evening.
A heroic rescue, made by little IL
year old Hester Oliver, when she ran
back into the burning room to get
her four year old sister who had re-
mained in the house, Us remarkable
for one Of her age. She had to
cross through the burning room to
get the child who was 30 frightened
from the fire that she had run into the
corner and stayed there. Little Hester
brought the child to safety, but re.
cieved severe burns about the face and
arms.

The Irrigation board after making a
personal investigation of the past work
and expe rience of the several appli-
cants for the position of superinten-
dent were unanimously of the opinion
that Mr.. Bush of Greeley was the man
best fitted for our district.
Mr.. Bush has been secured at $l25
per month and has arrived on the run
and gone to work. Mr.. Bush has for
more than ten years had charge of ir-
rigation systems very similar to ours
and there seems to be little doubt of
his competency. He is very pleas
ant gentleman to meet and will make
friends quickly. He is man Of good
character and is highly spoken of in
both Greeley and Fort Morgan. where
he has lived for a number of years.

of the farmer having himself farmed
near Crook.

The most elusive phase of the present
international situation, involved by the
movement of troops to the Mexican
border, is the relationship of Japan to
the causes and purposes Of Uncle
Sans activities, according to diplo-
mats who are watching every devel-
opment with hawk-like eagerness.
Whether the Japanese feature is q
bugaboo, set up to cover monstrous
movement of troops at the behest of
Wall street, or whether it presents
deep-lying, sinister possibilities. is an
open question.
Considerable significance was at
tached to President Taft's statement
in Atlanta, when he took occasion to
offer assurances of his good will to-
ward Japan as follows:
The most important thing which
was done at the session of congress
just closed was the ratification of the
treaty with Japan. 1t insures the
friendship of most progressive and
powerful nation, with whose develop
ment we have been intimately con-
cerned since Commodore Perry opened

fhe state dspartment and adainistra-
ton senators previously created the
impression that nhe treaty, which was
quietly indorsed by the senate after
only short delay, was in fact merely
the continuation of the proceeding

clause was dropped and a few minor
changes made.
That President Taft now considers
the ratification of the treaty to be the
most important event of the season
set the diplomats to thinking. 1t is
known that the United States is now
engaged IN an effort to obtain accurate
data as to the exact number of Japan

other industries.
From a reliable source it is asserted
that the overtures looking eventually
toward the establishment of a naval
base by Japan on the west coast of
Japan was made by Diaz, who saw fu-

Winsted Springs an Entirely
New Piscatorial Tale

The remarkable story of fish living
within man was related by Charles
Merrill of Hartland, Conn. He de-
clared that neighbor of his, a great
piscatorial artist at that, had a mon
ster wen on the back of his neck Ian
ced few weeks ago and in the two
quarts of water drawn from it were
three live chubs.
Merrill says his neighbor recalled
having dranken water from a pond
few years ago, while on fishing ex-

caught the fish at that time, but he
cannot explain how they ever got into
the wen nor can anyone else.

Hensble Death Was His Penalty
for Witehcraft

Army officers established a number
Of faets in connection with the death
Of the Papago Indian whose body wa,
found tied to the tail Of a wild horse
near Yuma, Ariz., Thursday.
BY following back the trail of the horse
the officers were led to place 10 miles
cut On the desert. There they found a
stump to which the horse had been tied
while the Indian was being fastened to
DE animals tail. There were signs of
q desperate struggle.
A trail back 70 the Papago Indiar
camp showed that the codtmmed mar
had hesn carried On donkey to tn
place Of execution and that four mel
led the donkey and the horse.
After the horse was released it ran II
miles at full speed to the river bottom
and then wandered about for several
miles in all directions.
Five men found in the Papago camI
were placed under arrest.
Persons Who are familiar with the
Papsgo Indian customs are inclined t.
the belief that the Indian was accused
of witchcraft and for that reason was
executed. One of the prisoner has
further admitted that the young Indiar
lived in the camp, but says he was
crazy.

Predicted Course Of Many Fam
osss Lives.

Gypsy Lee, who died few days ago
at Brighton Borough asylum, in Eng
land at the age of 70, was famous
fortune teller who was consulted by
thousands in all grades of society.
She asserted that she predicted for the
present queen when Princess May that
she would be engaged to two heirs of
the British throne, and to have told
Miss Dallas Yorke that she would
marry Duke.
She is said to have told Mr.. Gladstone
when a young man the famous career
he would have, and among others in
her book of patrons were Col. North,
for whom she outlined great wealth
and tragic death; Fred Archer, who
was to ride many derby winner; Sir
Joseph Hawley. who was informed that
he would win two derbys, and Lord
Henry Gordon Lennox. who learned
that he would marry an untitled woman
with money.

both the cards and hand, and her
powers of prophecy during her heyday
were regarded throughout Great

Arrangements have been completed
for the operation of an agricultural
special demonstration train to run
through the South Platte Valley, reach
ing Julesburg at 1920 a. m. on Friday,
March 18th. The train, consisting of
four cars of exhibits, will be shown in
town about two hours.
The plan of tn. train is as follows:
Such material as is possessed Of immedi-
ate educational value to the farmers of
Colorado and those interested in agri-
culture will be taken from the follow
ing departments of the agricultural
college: Agronomy, including soils,
crops and farm machinery; Animal hus-
bandry, including dairying and poultry
raising; Irrigation, forge and carpen-
try work; horticulture, entomology and
home economics.
Four cars will be filled with these
exhibits and there will be furnished in
in connection with every part of each
exhibit plain and simple literature or
placards covering that part of the ex-
hibit, Each exhibit will be placarded
SO thoroughly and plainly that it
will tell its own story, and there will
be in each car two or three demonstra-
tors to answer the questions to which
the several exhibits give rise.
The railroad and the college are each
spending over $1,000 per day for this
work. This two hours of free educa-
ton which we will be so fortunate as
to receive on Friday morning will be of
the utmost value, not only to every
farmer in this community but to school
children and business men. 1t is i'm

Gentlemen:
ION January 18th, last, Messrs. j.
w. johnson, Deputy State Engineer
and George T. Prince, consulting en-
gineer, visited the Julesburg dam.
This visit was made in response to a
request from your board that care.

certain recommendations, their made,
were executed by your board and ir
response to a second request for fur
ther examination, the undersigned Wis
tied the reservoir on the Goth. day oi
last month.
From measurements, then taken, OF
the elevation of the water in the res
ervoir, and that standing in the
several pipe wells,, which have
been sunk in the lower slope of the
dam. together with the recorded
depths of the flow over the weir con-
structed below the dam and your later
advices of existing conditions, we are
led to believe that an inappreciable
amount of water is at present seepine
from the south or reconstructed bank,
this small amount is coming from
A.old portions of the bank, lying or
either side of the repaired break.
We believe that the causes which re-
suited in the failure of the dam have
been eliminated and having regard to
tine character of the work introduced
into the reconstruction of the dam, il
is our opinion that unless the amount
OF the seepage very materially in
