Washington, Aug. Evidence of

Cuba, to proceed forthwith to Blue
fields, Mic. on the Caribbean coast.
She is due to arrive there, next Mon
day, and will try to communicate with
Managua in order TO allow Minister

WOMEN VOTERS
WANT PLACE ON
STATE TICKET
Sentinel Special Service.

Sentinel Special Service.
Denver, June 27.-As was men
toned in these dispatches several
months ago, the women voters in Col
orado are going to insist on being
recognized by the two old political
parties in the coming state election
when the time comes for making
nominations for state offices. They
are already declaring themselves as
to what the democratic and republi-
can parties may expect in case they
are not given recognition in the dis
tribution of lucrative places on the
two tickets.
In view of the fact that the women
voters of the state cast fully "A per
cent of the total vote in Colorado.
or approximately 10000, their
power in the coming state election
cannot now be denied, and unless
they are satisfied in the matter of
certain offices for women. they
threaten to give both parties trouble
and one of the leading women pol
iticians in Denver today said they
would certainly do it If the men
voters were not inclined to be fair in
this matter.
Besides it is positively stated here
that the women are going to spring
a sensation at the state assembly TO
be held in Pueblo, in the shape of
candidate for the Office of governor.
This has already practically been
decided on and the one to be put
forward is none other than Mrs. Sa-
rah Platt Decker, who is acknowledge
ed to be one of the most capable
women politicians in the state and
who has frequently been mentioned
as a possible candidate for the po-
sition of United States senator to fill
the place made vacant by the death
of Senator Charles ]. Hughes.

that concern in 1912. This was made
very conservative, and it is fully
probable that the figure Will reach
million dollars alone.
A small concern which has grown
with amazing rapidity is the Bower
Derry Cigar company, 1t handles
wide territory with its big line of ci-
gars and tobaccos, to which confec-
tions have recently been added. Two
statesmen are on the road continually
and another will be added shortly to
their sales force, it is announced.
The Grand Junction Fruit Grow
ers association is best known as a
mutual shipping station for fruit
growers, but its annual merchandise
business will be not less than $780,
600 in 1912. 1t is loading carloads
of oranges, lemons, etc, to western
slope towns frequently and will grow
with leaps and bounds with the re-
duced freight rates.
Figures on the annual business of
the Standard Oil company are not
available to The Sentinel today, ow-
ing to the absence from the city of
Jesse C. Glassford, the company's
western slope representative. Local
business men. however, place the fig
ure at 100000 as conservative to-
tai of the commerce in petroleum
products.

Grand Total

Despite the handicap of discrimi-
natory freight rates which has been
the bane of commerce in Grand
junction in the past, but which Will
be lifted after July /, the wholesal-
ing trade out of this city will during
1912 reach the enormous total of
S2,l00,00O, according to conservative
estimates made by local business
men today. Several have declared
that this figure will, by reason of
the reduced tariffs, be increased dur
ing the latter part of the present
year, and make the grand total for
the 2 months of more than 2,5OO,-
600.
Leading all other industries here
is the business done by the big pack
ing houses. Swift q Company, Ar
mour & Company, Western Packing
company and the Colorado Packing
company have branch agencies in this
city which are steadily gaining in
importance. Although separate fig
ures are not available. l.. E. Storm,
manager of Swift's local branch, es-
timated that the total meat business
would be between SS00,000 and ST.
100000 during 1912, with the prob
abilities in favor of the latter figure.
Estimates prepared today by Of
ficials of the Western Sugar & Land
company show that fully S950,000

Los Angeles, Cal, June 27.-That

right of the attorneys for the prose-

agreed to offer the transcript in evil
dence.
The plan was to introduce the
transcript on redirect examination
of Harrington. Under cross-eXamina-
tion Harrington was taken again and
again over his conversations with
Darrow, but the only thing reported
by him to have been said by Dar-
row interpreted as at all damaging
to the defense was an alleged state
ment by Darrow that he had seen
Matt Schmidt, one of those suspected
of dynamiting the Times building, af-
ter the explosion and that Darrow
had given Schmidt money in Chicago.

il is estimated The Iona factory

and during its first year the Currie
Canning company will do an enor-

city's wholesaling business.
A big jobbing trade has been
built up by the Latimer Chemical
company and the Colorado Spray &
Manufacturing company. Products
from these houses go to all parts of
the west and form large portion of
the total wholesaling commerce out
of Grand Junction. Among other
of the smaller industries are brick,
lumber, cabinet making and imple-
ment industries. which will aggregate

There is a general opinion that
with reduced rates the city will
double this enormous figure by the

GIRL IN TROUSERS, BURGLAR, ADMITS
 R0BBING SLEEPER

Danbury, Dec. 16.-Po1icemen who have been investigating a series of
 midnight burglaries in this city have arrested Amy Travers, twenty-two years old. The police say she told them, that with the aid of a man and disguised as a man, she entered and robbed the apartments of George F. TriIIn bIey, at 462 Main street.
 As the result of what the girl said George Smith,, twenty-five years old, also was arrested. The police say he told them that he supplied the girl with trousers. coat and hat and kept watch while she entered MT. Trun- bIey's house, the door of which they found unlocked.
 Police Captain David w. Bradley and Detective Sergeant William H. Baker assert that the girl said she found that MT. Trunbley, who was alone in the house, asleep in his bedcham- Der, and by the light of matches ascertained that he had left his clothes upon a chair at the side of his bed
 Crawling stea1thily across the room on all fours, she said, she rifIed the pockets of the clothing, obtaining $21. Once,s while returning across the room, she feared she had awakened the sleeper and she lay motionless upon the floor for five minutes. She said she divided the money with Smith.
 Both- prisoners have been held for trial today.

EYES OF A PORTRAIT.

Why They Seem to Follow Observers
 Moving To and Fro.
 The fact that the eyes of some DOT traits follow the observer as he moves to different positions has always been looked upon as triumph of realism. Although the phenomenon has been exaggerated in some instances, it is not a myth. If the eyes of the portrait look at the observer in a favora ble pc sition they will continue to do so with in a wide angle extending to any situ- ation where 8 view is possible. Con trarily, if the eyes do not Intentionally look at the observer they will not do so even though he take his station at a point where the painted gaze is seem ingly directed.
 Suppose that the portrait head is in three-quarter face turned to our left. with the eyes turned toward the spec tator. If we move to the right we do not obtain another view of the head that is, we do not move into the profile view that would be the case in real life. We see the same three-quarter head, but lessened in perspective. The picture itself is on a flat canvas and becomes narrowed in perspective, as does any flat surface behe1d at less than a right angle. A square seen at less than a right angle tends toward the projection of an oblong. Under these conditions the face of the portrait be- comes elongated proportionally. It still looks at the spectator because it pos sesses all the drawing that was seen in the front view, narrow now because viewed from an acute angle.
 This fact will be more readily under stood by the spectator if he will half close his eyes until unable to appreci- ate the surroundings of the picture and the acute angle which the painted surface bears to him. The contraction of the features will be apparent at once. The photograph of portrait at an acute angle would show the per spective narrowing more plainly. It is this contracted portrait that is seen upon moving to the right or left of it. The principle would be the same if the spectator take a station higher or low CT than the picture, except that the head would then appear to be widened instead of narrowed. Whatever the position of the spectator, the eyes will look at him Gf they do so in the first place. because there is no other place for them to 1ook.-Harper's Weekly.
