same thing Is true of rabbits. Poultry
is coming in freely, but the only out
let is through the dressing establish

a chance 10 clean up at n half cent un-

and more freely, southern stock -
Offering in increasing quantity, and

ia perhaps the weakest item on the

BRICK COMING INTO IT'S OWN

With the increasing desire in our
country that all things about us shall
be simple as well as beautiful, brick
Is again coming into it's own as a
building material. Brick making as
ar industry is being superseded by
brickmaking as an art. The ancient
Egyptians, Assyrians and other races
of the Orient wrought their palaces
and temples of brick with marvellous
skill and effects of beauty that we
Rave yet hardly equaled. Some of the
most beautiful Italian and French pal
aces were built of brick during the
Renaissance, and the history of Eng
land can be traced in its mansions
manor houses, palaces and churches
of soft red brick.
In our country brick for time was
rejected by all lovers of beauty, be-
cause its manufacture sank into a me-
chanical process whereby hard, tight
flat cakes of hideous color and mathe.
matical precision were turned out by
machinery to provide building ma.
terial that should be at once cheaE
and durable.
Within the last twenty-five years
however, architects have been forcing
on the manufacturers demand fol
beautiful bricks. Architects, design.
ers and manufacturers are now work
ing in unison to produce bricks thai
shall meet every demand for beauty
The result is bricks of rich, variegatet
color and texture that charm the ey,
and that are in active demand for ex
terror construction.-Arts and Decora

AN ELUSIVE UNCLE.

A seedy stranger dropped into the
Washington office of the New York
Sun one cold night last winter and
asked for Jerry Matthews. one of the
Suns men. When Matthews came in
the seedy stranger greeted him eff
fusively. He was much tickled Mat
thews was not so enthusiastic. He
recognized the man as Chicago ac-
quaintance who owed him various
sums. There was some conversation
and the usual tale of hard luck, and
then came the borrow. The stranger
wanted Matthews to help him out
with small sum. Matthews looked
III his pockets and found dollar bill
and a quarter. He gave the man the
dollar.
Cant you spare that quarter too 2"
asked the visitor. 81 need just that
much more"
Matthews gave him the quarter.
There was more conversation, a re-
hearsal of the hard-luck story again,
and then the visitor rose to go.

back to you Immediately. Just as
soon as ! see my Uncle Charley III

"Who is your Uncle Charley?" ask
ed Matthews.
Uncle Charley? Why, Charles
O'Ferrell, you know. He was once
governor of Virginia and served in
congress for several terms. Good
by. I'll send this back as soon as
see Uncle Chaley"
"Well," said Matthews, 81 wish you
the best of luck, but don't think
you'll find Uncle Charley in Rich

D|SGRAC[D
TH[CHURCH

Western Press.
DENVER, Oct. 25.-There was
much bloodshed in fight over the
possession of the pastorate of the
Union Presbyterian church here last
night Rev W. S. Rudolph, recog-
nized by one of the factions of the
congregation as pastor, was badly cut
by being thrown through a glass door.
Several of his supporters were also
injured in the melee.
This affair is only worthy Of a
gang of ruffians," shouted Rev. Perry
j. Ennes, pastor of the Twenty-third
avenue church, who was one of the
clergymen called in to settle the title
to the pastorate.
The bloody encounter grew out of
an attempt on the part of some of
the more conservative members of the
union congregation to have an AMIGA
BILE settlement of the controversy. The
presbytery had once before declared
the pulpit vacant and appointed Rev,
William Campbell TO fill it. An ap-
peal to the state courts brought Ia
light the fact that the old pastor
Mr.. Rudolph, was stockholder in
the company which owns the church
property.
Judge Hubert L. Shattuck thought
cut an almost Solomon-like decision
after listening to all arguments. II.
ordered that the church be thrown
open to service by DR.. Campbell II
the morning and by DR.. Rudolph ir
the evening. Things might have gon'
on this way for some time had moi
the enemies Of DR.. Rudolph changed
locks on the church on Monday, ant
refused to give the pastor a new SCI
of keys. He could not get into tht
church to officiate either morning oil
evening and SO the controversy wa:
forced to an issue.

FIVE LITTLE FACES.

The story of the painting of Rey-
nolds' five little cherub heads is not
very well known, though the picture
is familiar through many reproduc-
tions. 1t was painted in 1887, and as
a writer in st. Nicholas discovered
from reading the life of Reynolds, is
really sort of character portrait Of
a little girl. She was Frances Isa-
bella Gordon, daughter of Lord Will
liam Gordon and Lady Frances 1ngra-
ham Shepherd. The great ladies who
sat for the famous painters Reynolds
or Gainsborough often posed as some
character Of mythology, and the chill
dren were painted as cherubs or Gu
pids. There is perhaps no other in
stance, however, of five heads Of the
same person appearing on one canvas.
But we are reminded of the modern
fancy for making a string of photo
graphs of the same person in various
attitudes and with different express
sions. This little child, however, has
the same general expression in each
Casa tender, absorbed look of love
and wonder and praise.

BOARD OF TRADE MEETING.

Yesterday afternoon members of
the Durango board of trade met in
their rooms and held a meeting for
the purpose of considering ways and
means to secure funds for the re-
building of the county roads which
were destroyed by the recent flood. 1t
was decided that the best thing to
do was to hold a mass meeting and
next Friday evening was set for the
date of that meeting. Everyone is
invited to be present and all are urged

A committee was appointed to take
up the matter of the horrible service
which the postal department has dish
ed out to Durango since the days of
the high waters and it was decided
that the matter should be taken up
with Senator Guggenheim and that
an investigation be asked.

A BALD ANSW Err.

A merry automobile party, touring
out from Denver, went by camp
where several consumptives were liv-
ing out-of-doors, trying to regain
their health
The machine was stopped and the
tourists went over to the camp to
cheer up the sick people if they could.
A thin little old man, perfectly
bald, was sitting in the sunlight,
wrapped in a heavy overcoat and gaz-
ing steadily at the mountains beyond.
"Well, old chap" said a tactless
member of the visiting party, ~ sup
pose you are up here for young lungs"
"No,' replied the bald man without
removing his gaze from the noun
tains; Il am up here for dandruff."

KILLS WIFE AND THEN SELF.

ST. JOSEPH, Mo-, Oct. 19.-Prof.
Joel Van Dell Patch, noted artist
and portrait painter, received word
late last night of the murder of his
daughter, Mrs. Lulu Bethel Milli-
champ at the hands of her husband,
who then committed suicide, at Port
land, Ore.
Mrs. Millichamp, according to the
message, was killed while seated at a
piano, her husband then blowing out
his own brains. The double tragedy
is supposed to have occurred Monday
night, the bodies being found yes
terday when a neighbor broke down
the door to the Millichamp apart
ments. Mrs. Millichamp, who was
also an artist, was before her mar
riage, prominent society woman of
st. Joseph. She married Millichamp
at Seattle in March, 1907. 1t is be-
lieved Millichamp was suffering from
insanity. Mr.. Patch is prostrated by
the news.

FOR
GIANTS
Immense Crowd Sees New
York Wrest Victory From
Defeat in Tenth
NEW YORK A; PHILADELPHIA 3.

Western Press.
NEW YORK, Oct. 25.-The New
York Nationals are fighting in the
last ditch today to wrest the title of
phia Americans with three victories
won out of the four games now play
ed, the American league leaders need
but one more game to clinch the title
for 1911.
The eve of the fifth struggle today
saw the same big crowd moving to-
wards the Polo grounds and though
the home teams seemed to have only
bare chance of victory still there is
no lack of enthusiasm and interest
and indications were that the attend
ance would be as large as that at the
previous game here.
There is dearth of betting, Phila-
delphia being regarded as the ulti-
mate winners of the series. Only a
few care to take the short end Of
to l laid against the home team,
Coombs and Lip for Philadelphia and
MarGuand and Meyers for New York
are the batteries selected for today's
game, which will be called at
o'clock.
The fine weather, and the thought
that it may be the last game, drew
enormously. At 2 o'clock thirty thou
sand spectators packed the field and
excitement was at fever heat.
Marquand was sent in to the box
for New York, and Coombs for Phila-
delphia. No runs in either the first
or second innings. In the third the
Phillies fell on Marquand by good
hitting. Two men were on bases when
Oldring came up and smashed out a
home run, scoring all three. 1t seem
ed then that it was all over. In the
fourth inning Marquand suffered the
same fate. Marquand was taken out
of the box and Ames substituted but
the change fell too late to stop the
victory for Philadelphia. No runs
were made by either side in the fourth
or fifth innings.
No runs were made in the sixth in
ming, but in the seventh inning New
York scored. A bad throw to first
giving Merkle life, he was sacrificed
to second, made third and then came
home on long fly. At the beginning
of the eighth inning the score stood
three to one in favor Of Philadelphia.
New York got man on second in
the eighth but he could get no farther.
The ninth inning brought no runs for
Philadelphia, and New York went in
with determination and by batting
rally put over two runs, tieing the
score amidst the frenzied enthusiasm
of the crowd.
In the tenth inning New York scor-
ed run, winning the game by score
of A to 3.

SIGNS AND CoUNTERsIGNs.

Down in the meadow was a nice
round pond; it was big enough for
boys to swim in, but not big enough
for boats; so now you know just about
how big it was. And it was big
enough for two geese and frog and
lot of little frogs to live there 1t
was very good pond, indeed. But
the man who owned the pond did not
like to have the boys bothering round
in his meadow. So one day he put up
big printed sign that said, mo
Swimming Allowed in This Pond.'
So the boys had to go away some
where else to swim. But what about
the two geese and the frog and the
little frogs?
Well, the two geese came swimming
up to the new sign and this is what
they said-according to the story in
Little Folks:
"Said sister Goose to brother goose,
%, will you read those lines?'
Said brother Goose to sister Goose,
4 don't believe in signs.'"
And because they did not believe in
signs, you see, they kept right on
swimming in the pond. And down at
the bottom of the story is another
picture in Little Folks, showing how
Frog replied to the man who had put
up the sign. He had put up a sign
of his own, which said, "Nobudy has
ami rite 2 put up sines here. The
pond belongs to us. Frog & Co."

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, Oct. 25.-
The investigation of the private life
of DR.. Helen E. Knabe, the former
state bacteriologist, who was found
dead with her throat gashed yester-
day in her apartment, today occupied
the detectives assigned to the mystic
rious case. They proposed to ques-
ton the dead woman's friends in the
medical profession first for she had
said that her acquaintance was almost
entirely limited to persons interested
in science subjects, in physical cul-
ture or in social hygiene.
DIR. Knabe lived alone in the COM
fortably furnished apartment in which
she was killed. She devoted all her
spare time to study and experimental
ton. She was a member Of the Young
Woman's Christian association and
frequently lectured on social hygiene,
attempting to impress on them the
necessity of purity in all social rea-
tions. She was deeply interested in
physical and mental culture of the
American women and today was to
have taken examination at the Ger
man house in this city.
The police have released jefferson
Haynes, the negro ianitor of the build
ing in which DR.. Knabe lived, after
satisfying themselves that he could
not tell anything of the circumstances
