POSSIBILITIES OF
 THE COLORADO

Viewed from the benefits de- rived the Colorado it is the. most important of any river in the United States.
 It is bordered by millions of acres of land possible to cultivate if the river was used to irrigate them.
 By blasting the mountain sides into it's narrow canyons it is pos sible to make it a series of lakes.
 Lay inclines over these dams to pass small ports and make it naviesble to bring out the ores it's banks contain.
 Use the power generated at the falls to lift water to the high plateaus.
 It has the appearance of being possible to make a fill of ten or fifteen hundred feet by using a short bend and filing from out side and topping from the inside of the curve.
 Then tunnel through to put water into the Gila and so irrigate a large part of Southern Arizona and excepting the tunnel the ex- pense would be small.
 All persons admit the vast benefit to be gained by the irri- gation of these acres and would say go ahead, only they do not care to pay to help people in whom they have no interest.
 It can be done with inconveni- ence to none and benefit to all kinds of business by using re- sources now idle.
 There is now vested in the government this collateral which could be used as a base for inn provement notes, and notes based on it would pass dollar for dollar with those on gold.
 Public land minimum value $6S0, GOO, GOO. Timber on forest reserves at .$3.O OO slumpage. $1,- 554, oOO,OOO.
 Coal at Government estimate $1. 050, GOO, GOO, making an aga e- gate of $3, 2S4, GOO, GOO putsto 20 use.
 For permanent base for such acirculation they could on issuing patent to land instead of exact ing SIPS or $2.5O per acre, let that sum draw interest continu- ally, which many settlers would rather do.

AN InOn WllLED MONARCH.
One Man Eui. as Exempified In Fred
erick the Great.

Frederick was an intenSively active
liehiy capable. strong willed and self
reliant commander. He concentrated
all power in his own hands. reducing
his ministers to clerical work and his
generals to the duties OF personal lieu,
tenants. Hclow him the PruSSian ad-
miniStration WAS thing of stiff and
me hanical obedience. lacking in ini-
tiatiye and Individuality.
Several of Frederick's military losses
We're due to the fact that he gave his
generals such minute orders and was
so severe In case Of disregard of in
structions that they did not dare to
use their own Judgment when unfor-
seen conditions presented themselves.
He personally foresaw and provided
for everything. and he inspected fire.
quently and thoroughly. His discipline
was severe. his organization good, his
calculation accurate and limited to
what was possible. His movements,
which We're skillfully disguised, were
rapid.
So superior was Frederick to his op-
poncnts in strategy that they were
obliged for safety to keep their troops
in so concentrated a form that there
was not sufficient space for effective
maneuvers. He was more capable in
marching and maneuver than In bat
tie, more capable in battle than in
siege.
His great defect as an administra tor
lay in the fact that he dwarfed the
growth Of those below him and so edu-
Gated no talented corps to bear the
political and military burdens Of the
state when he should be obliged to
lay them down. He apparently could
do things only through himself. Hav-
ing supreme contempt for the capaci-
ties of most mOrtals, he had no mind
to make experiments which might have
changed his opinions. Although he
knew for many years that his success
sor was to be a man without ability,
he handed down to him a system which
required Frederick. We may say that
he brilliantly administered a system
which was badly Edward
D. Jones in Engineering Magazine.

"A II rs. THOMAS II. MARSHALL

L president elect. was the only
one Of the wives of the SIX
national candidates who went cam
paigning. And Mrs. Marshall is not q
suffragist She went campaigning be
cause Governor Marshall went cam
paigning and because they never have
been separated In the seventeen years
Of their married life.
Her share in the campaign was ia
perform the same motherly. old fash
toned duties Of taking care Of Tom
which have characterized her married
life; for, although Mrs. Marshall Is
many years the junior Of her husband
her watchfulness over him has been
of the type which. has made their ro-
nance unusual in this latter day.
Governor Marshall had crept over
the forty year hill and started down
the other side before he married. lie
never had announced an intention OF
remaining single for all time, but he
had done so for so many years that
back in Columbia City. Ind. where he
lived, it had become the custom to re-
gard him as dyed in the wool bach
elOr.
Then one day he went up to Angola.
in Steuben county. to serve as judge
on certain case. The clerk of the
court of Steuben county was William
L. Kimsey, and Mr.. Kimsey's daughter.
Lois. was serving as his assistant. The
Judge from Whitley county found the
case up in Steuben county so interest
ing that the interest fingered long aft
er the case was closed.
On Oct 2. 1905, Miss Lois Kimsey
of Angola and Thomas Riley Marshall
Of Columbia City We're married.
Those who remember the sweet, gem
tie, girlish bride that Mr.. Marshall
took to Columbia City seventeen years
ago see in her today the same woman
-matured. but as sweet and as gentle.
The honOrs which her state has show
cred upon her have left her simplicity
Just as untouched as it was on that
day on which she left Angola uncon-
scious of the fact the road she was
taking was to lead to the highest seat
her native state had to present to her
and to the second seat In the gift Of
the nation.
She will accept her new honors just
as graciously and unspoiled. 1t is this

FREEZING TO DEATH.
Sensations That Come With Exposure
to Extreme Cod.

10 Extreme Cod.
In the course of series Of expert
ments with extreme cold carried on at
Berlin. RaOul Pictet, an Investigator.
inserted his bare arm beyond the ell
bow in Il chamber refrigerated to a
temperature of 157 degrees below zero
+. and kept 1t there for several min
utes. He suffered no permanent dam
age. but experienced number of Pc
culiar and painful sensations. The
chief Of these and the most trying was
feeling of pain In the bones Of the
hand and arm.
:. The pain increased steadily. 1t was
located chiefly in the interior parts of
the arm and was far less severe in the
portions near or at the surface. The
skin was purple when the member was
withdrawn. In about ten minutes a
violent reaction set in with violent
1t had been exposed.
Investigations carried on with dogs
indicated that the process of freezing
to death Is not necessarily an unpleas-
ant one. Placed in temperature Of
1875 to ,-15O the animals displayed
quickened breathing and heart beats.
with decided rise above normal In
the blood temperature. These signs
pointed to sudden and violent auto
matte effort of the heart to preserve
the bodily temperature. In spite of en-
ergetic heart action the temperature Of
the blood fell gradually to II degrees.
At this point the heart action ceased
very suddenly.
The sensations Of bodily warmth and
languOr mentioned in descriptions Of
death by violent cold can easily be I'M
derstood in view of the above expert
ments.-New York Sun.
