In order to facilitate the work and
put money into circulation that has
been at standstill for many days
and needs something to stir 1t again,
Manager Wins last night an
nounced. that he will pay his men
every night. This will put about
$3.50 day into circulation. "
The Chicago Mill and Lumber
company has its main offices in the
First Bank and Trust Company
building at present. They also have.
a temporary office at the Chicago
Mill and Lumber Company switch Of
the Illinois Central railroad
Lumber Tied Together.
When the food seemed Imminent,
Manager Wilms, wired local Man
ager Wagner to boom the lumber
together, so II would not float away.
This was done and the company has
very little floating about the flooded
Drainage District.
Boats are being used to tow the
lumber to the Illinois Central tracks,
where it is being loaded onto cars
and taken to the storage yards The
dirt and mud from the Ohio waters
is being washed off and the COM
pany will in this way, be able to
save much of their stock.
Mr., Wins has also arranged to Sc
cure the foreign labor now held by
the Illinois Central in reserve. These
men are Italians and Greeks and
are now guartered in boarding cars

POPE NOT DEAD
SAYS DISPATCH
FROM VATICAN
Report Started at Madrid is
j Denied by Wires from
7ata Rome

Rome, Italy, April 11,-AThere is
no true in the report circulating
through the world, based on a tele-
gram from Madrid, that the pope is
dead. The cable dispatch from Rome
(received in America shortly before
noonl disposed of the alarming re-
port. sent from Madrid, and circu-
lated throughout the world, early N
the day, that Pope Plus was dead.
The first report stated that the papal
Nunciature at Madrid had confI med
a private dispatch received there, an
nouncing the pope's death A simi-
lar dispatch was received in London
from Madrid.
Meantime the cable from Rome
was silent and for nearly three
hours no direct communication could
be held from that city Urgent eff
forts from the different capitals of
Europe, by telegraph and long dis
tance phone, we're made to secure
direct information from the Italian
capital. Paris secured long dis
tance telephone connection, shortly
before noon, and was informed that
the Madrid report was untrue.
Immediately following this tele-
graph and cable dispatches direct
from Rome, gave the same informa-
tion that the Madrid report OF the
pontiff's death was untrue Pope
Plus has been in rather poor health
for some weeks. but at no time has
his condition reached critical stage.

WOMAN IS OVERCOME
BY SMOKE IN HOME.

ELIZABETH. Feb. 29.-Mrs. John
Nesbitt was overcome by smoke yes
terday while endeavoring to put out q
fire that started In a peculiar manner
in her home. s1s East Jersey street.
Mrs. Nesbitt. who was t~sning on the
second floor of her home. hung a coun-
terpane on a line ove the stove and
went downstairs. Soon afterwerd she
noticed smoke coming from the upper
floor and started back Upstairs. She
got to the door of the room In which
she had been ironing and saw the
counterpart blazing on t stove. She
e~ndeavored to get into the room, but
was so affected by the smok1 that she
was compelled to stag ser down the
and call for help.

Between
Ourselves

The Susan B. Anthony Club, of
Cincinnati-which, as the name i'm
plies, 10 not q mans a~ffair-has
started a campaign whereby IL ex-
poets to raise a national fund sutfl-
ciently large to insure a bounty of
from 500 to $1,000 for all mothers
who succeed In raising a child
boy or girl-to the ase of twenty
one.
The scheme is utterly impractlc-
able, of course, but It cannot fail
to appeal to every THINKING
person.
No one realizes, except the mother
herself, what a tremendous task it
is to raise a family PROPERLY.
Men do not appreciate the heart
aches. or the pangs. or the sor-
rows, or the disappuintments; they
do not know. they CAN not know.
We do not think that q mother
could be PAID for the care and
love which she lavishes upon her
family, but IL there was some
means whereby she might be as
sured of enough to at least EDU-
GAZE her children what . happy
world this would be-what a YER
table Utopia!
The Susan B. Anthopys are en-
gagged in a hopeless work, but a
iaudable one.

BOSTON. Mass. Feb. 2s.-Clarence
v. T. Richeson. former pastor and IN
fessed slayer of Avis Linnell, will not
live to meet lath in the electric chair,
three months hence, according to his
keeper at the Charles street jail.
Physically he is but a shadow Of his
former self and mentally he is a victim
of melancholia. He seldom sleeps, eats
little and without appetite, and only
occasionally reads light fiction, which
long ago took h place of the religious
works in which he seemed to find
solace at first.
Richeson Is constantly moving about
his cell, from bed to chair and chair

Marking the Way

In preparing county roads tor
summer travel the erection OF
sign posts should not be over
looked. This is one of the most
important matters to be consid-
cred in connection with the
construction of roads in this
state. The large amount Of travel
over Colorado road by people
fr om outside the state makes
this necessary.
This a question which should
be taken up by the various coun-
ty good road organizations. The
members themselves, especially
those who live in the country can
aid in this work. This marking
will be needed moIe than ever this
summer because of the new log
book now being prepared and
which will show Colorado roads iu
way never before attempted.
This book will contain almost a
hundred maps of Colorado roads,
and it is imperative that the trav-
eler over these roads should find
markers so that he can, without
loss of time and patience easily
find his way over the State.
The Colorado Good Roads
Association is in communication
with large numbers of eastern
tourists who are planning to visit
Colorado this year. The publicl-
ty work now being done is reach
ing these people, and the backing
the association is receiving from
the state at large is encouraging.
Five thousand mem bers at one
dollar per year are wanted, and
the list is crawling up rapidly.
Any information regarding the
new books, Colorado road laws
and the like can be obtained at
the State headquarters, Room 3I2
Chamber of Commerce Building
Denver.

School Notes

The Seniors have begun prac-
ticing on their class play Farm
Folks" which will be given at the
opera house during Commence.
ment week.
There will be not to exceed
thirty pupils who will fail III the
grades this year from present re-
ports. Even this number may
be somewhat diminished with
careful application and regular at
tendance on the part of the pu-
pills. AT the close of the years
work definite report will oe made
on the number who fail in each
grade.
Miss Dorsey entertained the
mothers of the seventh grade pu-
pills at the reception rooms of the
Manual Training building We'd
nesdav afternoon. We believe
this is move in the right direc-
ton There should be a closer
and more sympathetic relation be-
tween home and school, and these
conferences between The parent
and teacher will clear up many
misunderstanding. 1t is coming
to be a clearly established fact
that teachers work is not con-
fined to the mere technique of
class instructions; she is to be So
cial force in the community
whose influence whether IN
school or out is for the creation Of
proper ideals and the moulding of
the character of the boys and
girls who may come under her in
struction. This can be accom-
plished only with the sympathet-
ic, intelligent cooperation OF the
home. By another year we hope
to have many of these conferences
between parents and teachers.

California Raisin Day

california Raisin Day. inaugural
ed three years ago will be celebrated
again this year on the thirtieth day
of april Raisin Day has now become
an annual affair and there is hardly a
part of the United States where raisir
are not eaten on this occasion.

ago by the raisin growers of Califor-
mia and the Southern Pacific Compau y
and everybody in the country on the
the thirtieth day of April, became
afflicted with "Raisinitis. Through
out the entire country the railroads
prepare special menus for their din
ing cars, all of which has for one of
the ingredients, raisins. The COM
mittee in charge of the affair this year

40, 600 posters and winoow cards, 100,
900 POST cards and approxim ately
2,0S0, 900 stickers,

the country and it is also planned to
have raisin exhibits in the largest
cities in the country, prizes to be
awarded in each city for the best ex-
hibit The Southern Pacific Com
pany has arranged for the distribution
of many of the posters and other ad-
vertising matter and are re-

United States to again cooperate by
placing special raisin dishes on their
menus on April 30th.
EAT Raisin Bread" was one of the
slogans of Raisin Day Two years ago,
and it will be adopted again this year.
The most prominent chefs in San

United Stated Navals Training
School winning the prize for the best
loaf of raisin bread In SanFrancisco
