In looking over an old letter file, to-
day, I found a collection of letters that
should be in museum. Four or five
of them from Mark Twain; several
from w. D. HowelIs; several from T.
B. Aldrich; nearly every noted man of
that time is represented. That's the
sort of prize I have in view now. I
may not make it. But we have all
tried for prizes we didn't come any
where near getting. You can recall,
possibly, how you got up early, and
went hunting; how you tramped the
woods all day, and returned home late
at night without any rabbits. Same
way with writing play, or book: a
rabbit is liable to jump out of every
brush heap. and there is the excite
ment of the expeetant moment al
though when you kick the brush heap,
and turn it over, there is no rabbit
in it.

The excitement about the play has
given me a touch of the old restless
ness and nervousn ess I objected to on
the Globe. 1 shall not become ex-
cited again, for it does not agree with
me. In writing the book froEl which
the play was made, I became excited,
and have never recovered from it
fully.
Whatever happens to the play, the
book was a success. One morning,
twenty-seven years ago, clerk in the
Central Branch offices in Atchison tele-
phoned me. and asked if I had seen
the Century Magazine of the current
month. I replied I had not. He e.
vised that 1 lose no time in seeing it.
I found that the magazine contained
long review of the book from
which the play is being made. The
review was signed by w. D. Howells,
the most noted literary man in the
country at the time, outside of Mark
Twain. (The book had been mfser-
ably printed in the Globe Office in
Atchison, because the publishers in the
east wouldn't have it, Soon came
apologies from the publishers. Then
came a letter from Mark Twain. the
most noted man of American letters.
Newspaper notices, pages, were drop
ping in by this time; at that time
received the first request for a photo
graph.

COLORADO
GREAT WESTERN ANNOUNCES A
BIG CUT IN PRICE
NOT SEEKING A TRUST War
President Gives Out Statement Tell
ing Why Reduction Is to He
Made in State-Says Ii
May Bring Trouble

Colorado consumers should re-
ceive Immediately reduction Of
so cents per hundred pounds OF
one-half cent a pound on sugar. ~
the retailers give the consumers the
benefit of cut made by the Great
Western Sugar company, says the
Denver Times.
Last Thursday cut of 25 cents
per 100 pounds was made, and =
further cut OF the same amount was
put into effect yesterday. This
gives Colorado consumers sugar at
practically the same price that con-
sumers on the seaboards get It,
I'VE have removed the freight
rates from the seaboards to Den
ver." sair Chester S. Morey. presi-
dent of the Great Western Sugar
company, yesterday. I'VE have
done this because we believe that
the people living in the states whore
our refineries are located should get
the benefit of that fact. Heretofore
the price was made by adding the
freight rates on cane sugar from
tidewater to Colorado to the price
established by the Hamburg board.
There is no truth in the report
that we have inaugurated war
with the sugar trust. In the nrst
place we are too small a corporation
to fight the big tidewater refinefies.
Some years ago Arbuckle spent 3S,-
100000 or $1O.OOO,OOO in var
with the American Sugar Refining
company He did not win the tight.
Neither side won. They just quit.
Now, it is ridiculous to suppose that
our small corporation wants any
war like that. Arbuckle would be
the only one to fight US and We are
not courting a fight from him.
Our cut in price was put into
effect because we think 1t just to the
people OF Colorado. 1t may bring
trouble. hut we did not put it into
effect with any such expectation oI

mist?

ed at Reno, New, yesterday on

out having been granted divorce.
Dispatches state that he was re-
leased on 5000 bail furnished by

band had married in Reno. Brew
ington lived at Eaton for many
years, conducting livery business
there. He is widely known through
out the county and the family have
many friends here of whom news
of arrest will come as great sur
prise.

formerly Mrs. Mary DeRemer and
the marriage is said to have taken
place in Sacramento, Calf. last

DECOY LETTER
FROM GREELEY
CLOSES HOMES
Six Maternity "Hospitals" Put Out
of Business BY the State
Medical Board

The state board of health at a
special meeting last night revoked
the licenses of five Denver matern-
ity homes, all run by women. The
board had evidence be ;ore it which
led to the belief that criminal opera
tions We're performed in these
places. This evidence led to the re-
voking of the licenses.
The board examined six of these
places and two doctors at the meet
ing last night stated and some
shocking conditions We're revealed.
DIR. McKelvey, recently appointed
inspector of maternity homes, pro-
duced the evidence which led to the
action taken. He had had letters
written by woman in Greeley to
the Denver people. In these letters
the woman states very plainly that
she is in trouble and desires crimi-
nal operation performed She
states that she is poor girl but
that the man in the case would pay
$500 to see her through.
In nearly every case this letter
was answered by the keeper of the
Denver places telling the woman to
come to Denver and that they would
do the work. The woman was in
formed that it would not take long
er than week or ten days Ito fix
things
Most of the midwives called before
the board last night admitted an
swering the letter. Some insisted
that they knew it was a decoy let
ter when they answered it. Others
declared that they frequently re-
ceived such letters and told the
women to come to their homes. They
all protested that they never allow
ed the performance of criminal
operations in their places.
Most of the women whose places
were closed are foreigners.

There is joy for the kiddies and
grown ups too in the action of the
council Tuesday night regarding the
skating pond in Glenmere park this
winter. The special committee ap-
pointed by the council to Investigate
the offer of the Tribune to guaran-
tee the expense Of getting the pond
into shape for fun this winter re-
ported that they approved the plan
and that work would begin at once.
The only feature that caused
doubt has been overcome-that Of
too great depth in one spot. This
hole will be filled in SO that the
deepest part will not be over three
feet. When completed the pond
will cover about three acres with no
part of it unsafe for the little folk.
1t is expected that all will be in
readiness by tn time the first skat-
ing weather comes.
The new automobile ordinance
was passed on third reading and
ordered printed. In addition to
publication pamphlet copies will be
