from New Jersey and bears up
on topic that is not entirely
new, to-wit, the matter Of brand
ing married people in some way
that will identify them before all
the world and thus prevent them
from making pretentions of sim
gleness. The law, as proposed
and drafted by a certain woman s
club, would require every married
man to wear a particular kind of
ring and would impose penalty
of two years in states prison
for its violation.
No doubt, in a short time we
shall have the others. Somebody
will want a law to discourage
roosters from growing, to forbid
the making over of fathers pants
for the boys, to compel fat men
to travel by freight, to prohibit
corn from growing on Sundays
and holidays, and a dozen other
wild and disordered legislative
dreams. Ii it were not for the
sustaining hope that some day
one of them will spring something
that will be really funny and
thus will compensate us for the
pain of the rest, we should be in
favor of a law prohibiting the in
PRODUCTION of freak bills and
making it crime for newspapers
to report them or advertise the
names of their authors.

Tuesday, April 4th, is election
day. A mayor and four town
trustees are to be selected. One
trustee to fill the unexpired
term of C. A. Wynkoop and three
for term of two years. Do not
under estimate the Importance of
this matter. A town tax has
been levied which will yield some
thing more than 81 POO, in ad-
dition to which there will be a
revenue of %1,1OO from saloon
and other licenses, making a good
sized sum to be wisely expended.
In the hands of sl5illful town of
ficers wonders can be worked
with this amount of money but
otherwise it will be wasted and
frittered away Therefore. nomi-
nate good, progressive men for
now is the time and here is the
place.

Mayor Wilson has requested
all business houses to close from
IL o'clock until 2 next Tuesday
and all have said that they were
willing to do so. The occasion is
the visit of the agricultural spec
ial demonstration train which
will be here two hours. 1t costs
5000 a day to run this train, the
greater part of the expense being
charged to the railroad. If the
railroad can afford, or thinks 1t
profitable to spend this amount
to bring the agricultural college
to the people, the people can
surely spend three or four hours
of their valuable time in listen
ing to whatever lessons they have
to teach. The only object of the
special is to help the farmers to
raise more, better and more prof
table crops. Now if there is
remote chance that this special
train will help along that line,
come out next Tuesday, rain or
shine, and give the men on the
train fair chance. The special
has been out almost month now
and here at La Jara towards the
close Of the trip let it be said
that it got one of the biggest and
best receptions on the entire
trip. There are lots of people
here, come out, that's the only
word, come out and give the boys
a whirl.

TO SELL ROMEO
TELEPHONE COMPANY

On March % special meeting
will be he'd at Romeo to cinsider
the offer of the Colorado Tele-
phone Co., to purchase the Romeo
Rural Telephone Co. The offer
is considered a fair one by most
of the stockholders and will prob
ably be accepted. None of the
local people being in the tele-
phone business and not caring to
invest more money we do not have
the up-to-date plant that the big
company will give us, although
it is now costing each subscriber
about as much as it will under the
new arrangement. They agree
to put in a central at Romeo and
to make all lines metallic, both
of which will greatly improve the
service. Following is the propo-
sition:
"We can offer you a price of
100000 for your system and
VIII buy the telephone nstru-
ments at their actual value, in
some cases we will be able to pay
very near the original purchase
price Will in others where the
instruments have not been proper
ly cared for we will have to al
low for depreciation.
We will rebuild all lines neces-
sary to give metallic service for
which we will charge the same
rate as in the towns in which we
are now giving service.
We also propose to build an
office in Romeo making it an ex-
change as La Jara or Conejos.

town in the San Luis valley:

NEW CURE ADVOCATED
FOR THE DIVORCE EVIL

Chicago, March IA years
separation as cure for divorce
was approved to-day by society
leaders, club women, jurists and
lawyers who We're led into a
discussion of the question by the
action of Frederick w. Thomp-
son, the theatrical manager, and
his wife, Mable Taliaferro, who
have agreed to live apart for II
months, in the hope that their
domestic difficulties will adjust
themselves.
Mrs. Thompson has left her
husband in New York and is liv-
ing at 3749 Pine Grove avenue,
Chicago.
A law compelling couples to
live apart for at least one year
before filing suit for divorce,
would be one of the best methods
of curing the divorce evil" ap-
peared to be the general opinion
on the subject.
Mrs. Thomas ID. Knight, a So
ciety leader and clubwoman, and
Judge Richard S. Tuthill, who
has listened to several thousand
divorce pleas, both expressed
their approval of such a law.
81 think a majority Of divorces
are the result of angry impulses, u
said Mr.. might. GA law which
would compel persons to think
would be fine thing.
'The trial divorce, as you call
it would be a sort of probationary
period, when the dissatisfied pair
would be on the mourners' bench,
with time for calm consideration
of their case. ! think that after
few months of meditation, each
would see that the faults which
brought about the breach in their
domestic happiness did not lie en-
tirely with the other.
"The great fault with the pres
ent system is that an angry man
or woman rushes into court and
demands a divorce. The first
step taken, it is almost impossible
to retreat"

At this point in the conversation
Mr.. Park came into the house.

me to arrest the murderer Of John

The lodger smiled, showing a set Of
shining teeth.

quest is preposterous!"
"Not SO much as you think"
laughed the officer. ''Let me see the
backs of your hands" Mr.. Park
thrust his hands out unthinkingly, and
the next moment pair Of handouts
had been slipped on his unresisting
wrists.
Mr.. Lamon, alias Mr.. Park, alias
many other names, had come to the

it was caused by his second foolish
visit to the Croydon house whence he
went to secure some of the booty he
had concealed on his first call. Others
and they are in the majority-lay it
to his imprudence in leaving the two
Hanoverian coins on the floor Of the

MAN AND WIFE ARE ONE
No Other Such Unity Between TWO
Persons-Home impossible to
Either Ono Alone.

Ideally speaking, a man and his
wife are one; actually, they may be
no more one than they always were.
Marriage was designed to make them
one, is capable of doing so and will
actually accomplish the stupendous
task, unless, at least one OF them Is
SO abnormal as to be incapable Of go
ing into the unifying process or is I'M
willing to pay the price Of such a de-
sirable contamination. In that case
unity is impossible and marriage itself
Is the most hideous OF human abnor-
malities.
Whatever the exceptions to that law
Of the welded life, whatever the seri-
GUS violations Of it, we all know that
its profound purpose is to take two
and make them one. The poets have
sung OF that unity; we all dream Of 1t,
In our higher aspirations; the Book Of
books declares it true; the Man of
men affirmed It with almost tragic ear
nestness; the whole world considers
them one, for its laws unite them In
legal unity and. publicly and privately,
they are embraced in the same judy
ment. What is perhaps equally inter
esting to us Is the fact that every In
formed person knows many instances
that prove the claim true.
There Is no other such unity be
tween two persons; 1t Is the one sub
lime instance Of the unification OF life.

man was very bold, for he left per-
feet trail of gold along the shops
where he had spent the money. But
when the police came to the grocery
store, 1t was as though they had
reached the end of a blind alley. No
further trace of the fellow or his
money could be obtained.
It has been said that there is no
place in the world where 8 man can
lose his identity more thoroughly
than in the city of London. Lamon
had disappeared as completely as
though he had been swallowed UP by
the earth. Not only the city police,
but also the detectives from Scotland
Yard, were given orders to look out
for Lamon. Day after day went by
and they had only their labor for their
pains. A photograph OF Lamon was
now published in one OF the daily
newspapers with the announcement
that he was wanted by the police.
With this was given q brief account
of the murder Of Gold.
At this time there lived In Step

been known to act foolishly under try
ing circumstances.
Chief Frazer recalled that the guilty
man in the famous Briggs murder had
been captured from the fact that his
photograph had been published in one
of the London newspapers. Indeed, this
case resembled the Gold murder in
many of it's leading aspects. Mr..
Briggs was thrown from railway car
riage and killed. A hat that was left
by the murderer contained lining on
which was printed the name of well
known English halter. This clue led
to the discovery and arrest of the
culprit, although it involved a pur-
suit across the Atlantic ocean
The chief felt that some similar clue
might be found in the present in
stance. Accordingly he addressed HIM
self to the work of a minute examina-
ton of the railway carriage. The
first discovery exceeded his fondest
expectations. Two Hanoverian coins
were picked up from the floor of the
vehicle. That was a good starting
point. A detective was next sent to
the neighborhood where Lamon re-
sided. Every shop-keeper in that Sec
ton was subjected to a severe cross
examination. Most of them knew the
man, but said that he had not made
any recent purchases. A young
clerk in a grocery store, how.
ever, said that he had talked with La
mon only two days before.
what did he want?" asked the de-
tective.
Gle came here and bought a guam
tity OF timed goods" was the re-
ply.
"How did he pay for them?"
In gold.'
''How do you remember this?"
Because it is SO unusual, sir. Aft
er he had finished selecting his goods,
he handed me two Hanoverian coins,
saying with laugh that he didn't sup
pose we would object to that sort Of
money. We didn't. We took them
for gold and he was given 13s. cd. in
change"
The tolls were now closing in
around Lamon. When Mr.. Gold was
discovered dead it was found that
his watch had disappeared, together
with about 5000 In money which he
had collected in London that morning
as dividends on some stock he owned.
Several persons were found who were
willing to swear that they had seen
