Durango doffs its hat to the Civi,

was aboard the dispatch boat Dolphin,
which took up position near the
Mayflower.
Several hours were consumed in the
exchange of official visits and III the
final arrangements for the great pa
rade of the gray armada that for
nearly a week had swung at anchor
in the Hudson. Finally the booming
of gun announced to the thousands
o waiting spectators that the great
naval spectacle was about to begin.
The battleship Connecticut, flag
ship of Rear Admiral Hugo Oster-
led the line down the river and out
into the harbor.
| In addition to the mighty array of
battleships the line included armored
cruisers, scout cruisers, gunboats,
mine-laying ships, torpedo boats, tor
pedo boat destroyers, water tenders,
naval tenders, colliers, repair boats,
dispatch boats and submarines.
Three of the ships in the line-the
Massachusetts, the Indiana and the
Iowa-had taken the shot and shell of
Cervera's fleet at Santiago, while an
other historic vessel, battle SCARED
one, was the old cruiser Baltimore
which saw active service with Ad-
miral Dewey at Manila.
AS the ships filed past the May
flower they kept up a constant roar
of salutes. The bugles sounded -four
ruffles," the signal for the bluejack-
cts to man the rails, while the quar-
terdecks were black with officers and
marine guards.
After passing in review of the
president at twelve knots an hour and
reaching for the open sea, the fleet
was to be disbanded, some of the ships
returning to southern waters while
others are to depart for their sew
eral home stations to prepare for the
winter maneuvers in the south.
The fleet reviewed by the president
was not only the most powerful ever
gathered in one American command
but was also equally remarkable as
homogeneous fighting force. In COM
parison with the similar event of last
year today's mobilization demonstrate
ed, to all appearances, considerably
greater readiness of vessels in the At
: lantic than at any previous time, and
indicated the manner in which yes.
: sells of the reserve fleet might be
:, called into active service in case of
need. Naval officials express the be-
lief that the great gathering of wal
craft will prove very valuabale form
of training to all branches of the navy
in co-ordinating and perfecting the

mobilization of such an impressive

CONCERT A GRAND SUCCESS.

BOSTON, Oct. 15.-The Boston Red
Sox needing but a single victory to
secure the worlds baseball champion
ship, and the New York Giants fight
ing still with their back to the wall
to overcome the handicap which re-
quired that they win two games, met
again at Fenway park today in the
seventh game of the series of 1912.
A win for New York today would
tie the standing and make another
game necessary
Joe Woods was the selection Of Bos-
toms pitcher. Matthewson or Tesreau
of the Giants is mentioned as Man
ager McGraw's probable choice.
The crowd gathered at o'clock
was big one.
Never was Boston more astonished
than when the game began with the
invincible Wood in the box, New York
just went for him more fiercely than
they went for O'Brien yesterday. They
hammered him numerically, getting
eight hits and seven runs in che first
inning, knocking Wood completely out
of the box, Hall taking his place.
Tesreau pitched for New York in
fine form. The only run Boston could
make off him being home run in
the second period.
No runs were made by either side
in the third, fourth or fifth inning
the score in the sixth standing to
in favor of New York.
In the sixth the Giants got to Hall
and made two more runs, while the
Sox went out in one, two, three order
All interest in the game was then
over and the crowd began leaving
the grounds.
The score was 8 to when the
seventh opened. Tesreau here let dowr
and Boston scored 2, with New York
adding one more.
In the eighth inning Boston took an.
other score, making a score of 10 to 4
New York scored again in the ninth

The output of sugar from the sew
enteen factories will be $4,000 tons
more in 1912 than in 1911.
Sugar beet growers and the own
ers of the factories are alike jubli-

pany-Monte Vista.
Officials of the Great Western COM
pany said that the beets were of
higher percentage this year than ever
before, and that all indications point
ed to the sugar being of even high
er grade than ever before. There has
been big increase in labor employed,
with a consequent large increase in
the distribution of wages.
Sixty-three thousand acres more
were planted in sugar beets by the
Colorado farmers in 1912 than in 1911,
and there is every indication of larger
acreage in 1918. The returns have
exceeded the anticipations of the
farmers.

COLORADO'S LEADING CROP.

IL lS now tne time Oh tne year WneH
the farmers are harvesting and mar
keting their crops. In fact, the crop
of 1912 has been largely marketed
and the value of it determined.
1t has been found that one of the
most valuable crops OF the state is
the sugar beet, and yet the industry
is in its infancy. Under favorable
conditions the sugar beet industry will
equal that of the mining industry
when it was at its best in the state.
Should the Democrats succeed in elect
ing their ticket and pushing through
free trade bill similar to the one
that they put through the house last
summer the sugar beet growers will
go out of business until the admin
istration is again changed and the
Democratic law repealed.
Neither the farmers nor those who
sympathize with them should for a
minute countenance the effort being
made by the politicians of this state
to elect Democrats to congress and
thereby injure and perhaps destroy
Colorado's leading industry.
1t behooves every man who tills
the land, who invests in land and
who is benefited indirectly from the
business of the sugar beet industry
to go to the polls and cast ballot
against the Democratic candidates
who desire to go to ssongress for the
purpose of working A61inst the farm
ers. The following FROM the Post
gives an idea of the Importance of
the industry:

Colorado have passed prosperity

TEDDY SHOT
FANATIC TRIES TO ASSASSI-

ROOSEVELT.

MILWAUKEE,, Wis, Oct. 16.--An
attempt to assassinate Colonel Roose-
welt was made as he started on his
way from the Hotel Gilpatrick in this
city to the Auditorium just before 8
o'clock last evening. AS he stepped
into an automobile shot was fired
by a roughly attired man, John W
Shrank of New York City, who edged
his way through the crowd to the mo-
tor car. Shrank took deliberate aim
and sent bullet crashing into the
ex-president's right side an inch below
the nipple.
The shooter was nabbed by A. B.
Geard of Milwaukee, who was a
Rough Rider under Roosevelt. As the
man bent on murder was about to
fire another shot the revolver was
knocked from his hand, and the as
sassin was choked by Captain Lyon.
Roosevelt staggered back into the
auto when the shot was fred but
raised himself and stood looking al

Nov. 3-The Sign and the Leaven.
Mark, ii-26.
We have very practical portion of
the bible for our lesson this week. 1t
will be remembered that in the days
when Jesus was on earth there was
a groupe of people who were against
all that He did. This groupe was
known as "Pharisees." They assumed
to- have special knowledge as to the
scriptures and just what God wanted
done by men to gain His favor. Jesus
called them hypocrites of the worst
kind, and had little patience with their
self righteousness. Nothing could
change their attitude of antagonism
to Jesus, but they pretended to be
most anxious to believe in Him, if He
would but make plain that He truly
was the Messiah sent from God.
In the lesson verses today certain
of these Pharisees came to Jesus ask
ing Him to give to them miraculous
sign or special wonder to show that
He was what He protested to be-.
Jesus knew the hardness of their
hearts and that under no Circumstance
es would they believe on Him and so
promptly said that no special sign
would be given them. 1t was such
Jews as these who We're the thorn in
the side of the meek man Moses when
he was their leader on the way to the
promised land. The fact that they
had been wonderously brought out of
Egypt, fed without work on their part
with mama, their clothes had not
worn out, or their shoes needed re-
Inewing, did not convince them that
God was with them and that to rebel
against Him was the heighth of folly.
Those who like, can read Deut. 20 4,
5 and and see what Moses thought of
such people.
Many times Jesus had declared to
the effect that if the people about Him
did not see cause to believe on Him
from what He said to them, that they
should on seeing the works which He
did. He cured the supposedly incur
able leprosy, gave sight to sightless
eyes, made the paralyzed walk, raised
from the dead one who had been in
the grave for a number of days, fed
thousands of people from few loaves
of bread, healed those with whom He
had no bodily contact. With such a
multitude of evidence of His divinity
and power, it was indeed trying to
have men come asking for more.
