HEALTH OF THE ARMY.

The general health Of the army was
fairly satisfactory during the year.
There was a somewhat alarming in.
oease Of venereal diseases, and the ad.
mission and death rate for tuberculosis
were high-higher. in fact, than in any
armies, except those OF the Spanish.
French and Dutch, says the New York
Globe. In this connection better ven
tlation OF barracks is urged. Over.
crowded guardhouses are still common
and that sanitary abomination," the
overhead, or double-deck bunk, is
still in use at Forts Totten and Adams.
Twenty-three thousand FIVE hundred
and twenty recruits were medically ex-
amined, and 1890 per 1000 rejected

the tropical stations, remarkably good
records and conditions are reported.
There was not single case OF cholera

was achieved by the use OF sterilized

A CHANGE.

With this issue The Enterprise
changes from an eight-page part
home print to a four-page all home
print. In other words we are
cutting outfour pages of ready
print that we have been getting
from Denver each week. This
does not mean that we will re-
duce the standard Of The Enter
prise as local home paper, but
1t does mean that we will reduce
our expense considerably and
also eliminate that part of the
paper that carries SO much OBJ
jectional advertising over which
we have no control.
AS a business proposition we
cannot issue an eight-page paper
for one dollar year and make a
profit thereby. Other papers in
the county get two dollars
per year, and do not issue a
paper one whit better than The
Enterprise. Like every one else
we expect to make a profit on
our business and we found it was
necessary to either raise our sub
scription rate or cut out the
ready print. We chose the lat
ter way, believing it would prove
most satisfactory.

Semper News.

Filtration peak was the scene
of a merry party last Friday eve
ming, the occasion being a corn
roast given by Mrs. Samuel
Brethom in honor Of her visiting
friends. The staid old mountain
with her secrets of whispered
love and disappointment of a
cosmopolitan throng of a century
beneath her shroud seemed to
have been especially prepared
for this joyous event. Refreshed
by light showers, the rare atmos-
phere cool and the moon creeping
away from threatening clouds,
the weather conditions were
ideal. The appetite appeasers
were perfect and the roasted
corn and other delicacies were
taken care of with a relish. The
sounds of laughter and song
that reverberated through the
gulleys and mountains were evil
dences that everyone of the
party of twenty-six young peo-
pie enjoyed themselves to the
limit. Those present were;
Mrs. Sam Brethoms, Idaho
Springs; Mrs. L. McCloskey, st.
Louis, Mo; Misses Viola and Lo-
retta Wand, st. Louis; PatsyHat-

THERE'S NO PLACE LIKE
HOME"

A keen observer Of business
conditions is authority for the
statement that nearly every
moderate sized town and village
in the central states actually
needs houses to quarter its people.
The boom in far distant land
schemes, now on the wane, has
taken money away from home,
the westerner investing in the
East and the easterner in the
West. There is a lure about
things distant that the average
man finds it hard to resist.
Distance lend enchantment, "
especially when properly played
up by the skilful advertising
writer working for an ingenious
land promoter.
No one can deny the wisdom
Of land investments when the
investor buys land for home
for cultivation and actual develop
ment. But much of the money
placed in circulation by land
schemes during the last two or
three years has gone into prop
erty which the buyer knew
nothing about beyond what he
read in a prospectus. This sort
Of investment" as a rule, is
gone forever and the experience
10 expensive.
Now that the land man has
harvested his crop it is time for
every community to get back tc

Maine! My Maine! My!
VICTORY! Main must keep

who have been organized by
Miss Anna Lordon, vice president
of the national w. C. 7. U. to

"Pine-tree State
A famous historian has written
of the five decisive battle world,
but it is doubtful if ever in his
tory was waged a mightier con-
flict than is now going on
for God and home and country!
Maine has been the stronghold of
prohibition for fifty years; she
has been the signal light to the
other states and the world. The
people have little to fear eX-
cept from the ''stay-at-homes'
people who believe in prohibition,
but are not awake to the magni-
tude Of the issue. 1t will be the
work of the temperance forces
to so arouse the state that no
man who believes in prohibition
will dare remain at home on that
eventful election day.
The license press is dealing in
ridicule, vituperation and half
truths, and sometimes in whole
falsehood, which would be laugh
able were it not for the fact
that every false statement will
influence some voter.
Mrs. Stevens is the great
leader; even those who have
known her many years marvel
at her generalship. In addition
to her national work, while con-
stantly speaking herself, she has
peen able to arrange votes for
twenty speakers. Then she keeps
her hands on the pulse of the
movement, knows what the press
is saying and just how to an
swer every argument. There
should a mighty voice Of prayer
ascend to God from all over our
country! Surely God will bless

good business with it's vaude-

is establishing a new record at
the box office for this season of

Miss Marguerite Keller, former
musical comedy stars, are the
headliners there now. Next
Monday night the bill changes,
bringing seven new acts. The
principal attraction then will be
the spectacular production called

who wear some fetching cos

chiefly to comedy and music,

other feature Of the program.

WALTER WISDOM ATTEMPTS
SUICIDE

Sheriff Fenton was notified about
230 a. M, Wednesday that the wife
and friends of Walter Wisdom be-
lieved he had been murdered as he
was missing and there was blood in
the kitchen. The sheriff left immedi-
ate and upon arriving at the Wisdom
home few miles south west of Sa-
lem found the facts to be as follows.
Mrs. Wisdom had retired early leav-
ing her husband sitting by the table
About 2 o'clock in the morning she
awoke and found that Mr.. Wisdom
had not gone to bed. She went to
blood in the kitchen. She called for
help and when neighbors arrived, be-
lieving that the man had been foully
dealt with, they at once called the
sheriff. In the mean time the bloody
trail was followed and Wisdom was
found in a straw stack, his throat cut
almost from ear to ear. He still held
the razor in his hand. The jugular
vein was partly severed. By the tim
the sheriff arrived doctors had been
summoned. The ugly wound was
dressed and the prospects are favora-
bic for his recovery. 1t is believed
that he went to the straw stack to
complete the job begun at the house,
but was too weak from loss of blood
No cause is advanced for the rash act
unless it should have been worry owe
the difficulties of his brother Ed.
