Clay'S Confession
HaltS WOman's Plea

At the very moment that Robert Lee
Clay was throwing off his mask of in
sanity today and assuring those around
him that he was perfectly sane, a wom-
Kennedy" was seeking diligently to get
to the governor in the capitol, for the
purpose of convincing him, if possible,
that Clay was insane, and she knew
why
Mrs. Kennedy came to the capitol
early this morning. and asked to see
the governor. She was there two hours
before the governor was due. After
waiting a while, she said she would go
to the mansion. but did not state what
her business was.
After a while she came back to the
capitol, and Secretary Jesse Perry, see
ing her in the corridor, asked her bust
ness. She then said she wished to
see the governor. She said she had had
experience among insane people% and
had studied their characteristics. She
said "a hearty appetite and a rapid
pulse were two infallible signs of men
tai wreck.
Secretary Perry assured her that
there was no use seeing the governor
as the case had been settled-that it
was closed.
Mrs. Kennedy was not at all dem
onstrative. She talked calmly, said she
never had laid eyes on any Of the Clays
but insisted that she knew Clay was
insane nevertheless.
Eventually a noon edition of The
Atlanta Georgian reached the capitol
| and Mrs. Kennedy read therein the
story of Clay's admission that he had
been shamming and been playing q
part.
Mrs. Kennedy left the capitol imme-
diately. and made no further effort to
| reach the governor.

HURT To RENEW
POWER CO. WAR
Will Appear Before Council
Committee Today, and Plans
Hard Fight.

Joel Hurt, the millionaire property
of the Georgia Railway and Power
Company are so high that he will not
buy power from it, will renew his petit
ton to the streets committee of council
this afternoon for the right to lay con-
duits under the streets through which
to supply current to his buildings from
his own private plant.
Because this right is opposed by the
Georgia Railway and Power Company
Mr. Hurt will outline to the committee
that he will build an electric power
plant to compete with the power COM
pany if his permit is refused.
Mr., Hurt expects to build a private
power plant in the basement OF his new
skyscraper on Edgewood avenue and he
wants to supply power to his several
other buildings from this plant. The
power company objects to his use of
the streets because he won't be subject
to the regulations and taxes of the pub
lie utility corporations. The company
claims the city can not legally grant
the permit.
Mr.. Hurt said today he would show
the committee that such permits are
granted In every city.
Mr.. Hurt once owned large street
railway interests, but sold out to the
present corporation after bitter war
of competition had lasted for several
years He claims that the history of
the corporation since the consolidation
would make the most startling story of
high finance in America.
Representatives of the company will
be present to oppose his permit, A bit
ter clash is expected.

SUMMONS TO DIE ON
OREGON SCAFFOLD

SALEM, OREG., Dec. 13.-Four men
convicted of murder and condemned to
death waited today for the sentence to
be carried out Unless Governor Oswald
West intervenes the sentence will be car
ried out before night
The sentences against the men have
already been delayed by the governor,
who refused to permit their execution
until the voters passed on an initiative
law abolishing capital punishment The
law was defeated at the November cleo
ton.
AT that time woman suffrage was voted
IN. Since then an effort has been made
to resubmit the law against capital pun
lshment so that the women might vote
on it as we'll as the men. The governor
mas been urged to grant the condemned
men reprieve until this might be done.
Recently he said he would not interfere
again. The condemned men are Noble

HIDDEN TREASURE
MILL IS SOLD

The sale of the Hidden Treasure
mill on North Clear Creek, to a SYM
dictate of California capitalists proves
to be one Of the important mining
deals of the year. The new purchas-
ers are busy dismantling the property
preparatory to the erection of thor
oughly modern milling and concen-
tration plant for the handling of the
custom ores of the camp. Just as
soon as the ground is cleared, the
first unit of 80 tons capacity will be
installed. This means an initial out
lay of S5O,O0O.00. The latest devices
for the economical handling and treat
ment of milling ores, including an au-
tomato sampler, are to be installed.
R. Chester Turner, of Berkley, Calf,
has charge Of the operations. In the
treatment of custom ores, it is the
plan of the management to pay the
shipper for gold and silver contents
based on the assay value of sampling,
the old style custom mill will be ell
minated. Later, company is to be
formed that will enlarge the mill to
its ultimate capacity of 500 tons
, daily. The management believing that
with up-to-date methods and fair
dealing with the shipper, that this
amount of tonnage can readily be
had.

The Seabird Mining company, op-
Grating in Moon gulch, has just COM
pleted the installation of an electric
plant for the operation of their prop
critics. A power line has been strung
to the tunnel where 80 h. p. motor
runs the newly installed compressor.
The tunnel is now in some 500 feet.
A comparatively short distance will
intercept the Seabird vein. This tun-
mel will be driven to develop all of
the eight claims owned by the COM
pany. This will give depth of from
400 to 500 feet below the apex of
the veins. The main vein, which is
from ten to twelve feet in width,
gives large values for the entire
width. One foot of ore carrying cop
per values. gave returns in excess OF
100000 per ton. Oklahoma capital is
chiefly interested. C. NJ. Becker, OF
New Mexico Is superintendent.

l.. Sternberger has started extern
sive operations on his newly acquir-
ed prospect, which is the extension
of the noted Swamp Angel mine at
Peck Flat on Mt. Pisga. The vein
is large and massive, carrying good
values in lead and silver, SO much
so, that so feet of shaft has war
ranted Mr.. Sternberger in connecting
the property with his power plant on
Fall river; erecting and installing
suitable top equipment to sink the
shaft at once to depth of 300 feet,
when shipments of ore will be made.
This is a part Of the county that
has long been neglected and the sue
cess of My sternberger will no
doubt induce others to prospect this
section.

$1,000 IN PRIZES;
MANY OTHER AWARDS

On November The Denver Times
will begin the publication of series
of seventy-seven pictures in its great
Book-lovers' Contest, in which there
is to be distributed over $4,000 in
prizes.
The first prize is $1,000 in gold.
The second prize is two building
lots, valued at 5000.
The third is $500 Emerson piano.
Altogether there will be several
hundred prizes.
You don't have to enroll your name
in this contest-just start saving and
solving the pictures. 1t is what it
purports to be-a game for the home,
for the family circle for the evening
hours. You will find it the greatest
fun in the world working out the So
luton of the pictures, and there is nc
reason why you should not win one OF
the hundreds of prizes. They are all
described fully, together with COM
plete information in four-page circu-
lar which will be sent free to you on
request.
Remember-you need only to secure
the complete set of seventy-seven pic
lures. Nothing else is required of
you. Cut the pictures from The Den
yer Times each day and save them
until the whole seventy-seven have ap-
peared. Then send them in with your
name and address. If you do not get
the pictures from the beginning, you
can secure the back numbers at any
time by mail or by calling at The
Denver Times. The easiest way is the
least inconvenient-order The Denver
Times by carrier, or if you live where
no carrier service is maintained, see
your postmaster or write for subscrir-
ton rates. Remember that to enter
this contest a literary education is
not necessary. Your knowledge of
boolNe may be limited-all you have
to do is to study pictures, think of
all the book titles that will fit them
closest, and then select the answers
you think most appropriate. Use
your wits. Get suggestions from your
friends and make an effort to win
one of these valuable prizes. In or
der to help you solve these pictures
The Denver Times will have published
a catalogue containing 5000 names of
books, together with the authors
names, and from this catalogue the
seventy-seven titles to be used in the
Booklovers' Contest will be chosen.
The contest need not cost you a cent
beyond the cost of having The Den
Yer Times reach you each day by car
rier or mail.
Remember that all information in
reference to this $4,000 Booklovers'
Contest will be furnished you If you

AS WE APPEARED
FoRTY-FoUR YEARS AGO.

The Rocky Mountain Herald, pub
lished in Denver and one of the first
newspapers published in the state, is
running page of items printed from
its files Of forty-four years ago. AS
Central City was the principal town
in the territory at that time. con-
siderable mention is made of happen
ings in this section four decades ago,
and the following items will be found
interesting:
REV. Father Raverdy of Central
City. is endeavoring to establish a
public hospital or home for the sick
in Gilpin county, to be under the ex-
perienced care of the Sisters of Char
ity, whose works of mercy are we'll
known. The object is noble, and its
establishment is needed.
'Resuming his notes of mountain
matters, Prof. o. j. Golldrick, editor
of The Rocky Mountain Herald, max
ing a trip through Gilpin and Clear
Creek counties A years ago, adds:
Central City shows substantial and
extensive improvements. The brick
blocks of Messrs. McCool & Johnson,
of Roworth & Co., of Mason Seavey,
Van Deren, and different others, are
a credit to any city of much older
years. The new stone church being
erected by the Methodists of Central,
will be lions citadel in Colorado.
Ben Wisebart sells more clothing
in a single day than do any of our
Denverites in whole week. In
church matters. the congregations at
the Episcopal and Congregational
churches seemed to US to be similar
in part and parcel to the politest in
the eastern cities. Notwithstanding
the half of them are hardy miners, 81
or make pretentions to be.-The best
singing to be heard in the Territory
is at Christ's church in Central City.
The best eating to be had in Colorado
is at the Barton House in Georgetown
The best free school in the Rocky
Mountains is that by Mr.. and Mrs.
Hale at Central City. The best
bathing springs in tho country are
at Idaho (Springs.) The best lager
beer in the long run is Selak's Best
in the city of Georgetown, and the
best FIGURING mill in Colorado is
Dave Barnes at Golden City. But TO

supplied with every class of stores
and shops. such as can be found i'm
