To Open FairpIay Lands.

Washington.-As a result of an in
vestigation by the forest service at the
request of Senator Guggenhoim. it is
believed a large area in the vicinity
OF Fairplay will soon be released from
the Leadville national forest. Some
time ago Senator Guggenheim took
the matter up with the forest service.
which ordered an examination of the
lands with view to their elimina-
tion from the reserve. The senator
has private advices that the examina-
tion has been completed and the re-
port, which is believed to be favor
able, is en- route to Washington. The
result of the elimination of this area
would be to open new mining field
in Colorado, for many years practically
denied to prospectors because OF its
incorporation in the forest reserve.

mated today are Burlington, Steamboat

A HIT
What She Gained by Trying Again.

A failure at first makes us esteem
final success.
A family in Minnesota that now en-
Joys Postum would never have known
how good It is II the mother had been
discouraged by the failure OF her
first attempt to prepare 1t. Her son
tells the story:
I'VE had never used Postum till last
spring when father brought home
package one evening Just to try It. We
had heard from our neighbors, and in
fact every one who used 1t. how well
they liked It.
We'll, the next morning Mother
brewed It about fve minutes, Just as
she had been in the habit OF doing
with coffee without paying special at
tention to the directions printed on
the package. It looked weak and
didn't have n very promising color. but
nevertheless father raised his cup
with an air OF exceptancy. It certain
ly did give him n great surprise. but
I'm afraid It wasn't n very pleasant
one. for he put down his cup with a
look Of disgust.
Mother wasn't discouraged though.
and next morning gave 1t another trial.
letting It stand on the stove till boil
ing began and then letting It boil for
fifteen or twenty minutes. and this
time we were all so pleased with 1t
that we have used It ever since.
Father was n confirmed dyspeptic
and cup of coffee was to him like pol
son. So he never drinks It any more.
but drinks Postum regularly. He isn't
troubled with dyspepsia now and is
actually growing fot and I'm sure
Postum is the cause OF 1t. All the chill
dren are allowed to drink 1t and they
are perfect pictures of health" Name

Kiev, Russia.-The Russian Pre-.
mier, Peter A. Stolypin, died from
the bullet wounds of an assassin
during a gala performance at the
municipal theatre. Almost until the
last the premier was conscious, and
for half an hour his wife alone was
at his bedside. Towards the end Sto-
lypin suffered greatly. Finally the
heart action became weaker and as
the body grew cold the premier real
fzed that death was overtaking him.
At a lucid interval a priest admins
tered extreme JUNCTION. The Metro
politan Flavian blessed and consoled
him in his last moment.
Stolypin's death, in addition to ter
rorizing the Jews and sending them
by thousands from the city. has ac-
centuated the revolutionary move
ment, which has been marked by a
series of assassinations recently.
These deaths are accredited to a
new autonomous revolutionary group
the aim of which is to assassinate in.
dividual statesmen. Bogroff was said
to have been leader in this group.
Many prominent men are said to be
marked. Several already have re-
ceived warnings. In several instances
it is claimed the victims selected are
sons or daughters of officials.
One hundred and fifty arrests of
lawyers and other acquaintances of
Bogroff have been made in Kiev.
The revolutionists are now, the Of
ficials say. closing up their ranks in
preparation for a new campaign.
