SAW ELEPHANTS;
GAVE HIM D. rs

Three numbering elephants and a
brace Of Sahara camels, meandering
up a canon between Telluride and
Placerville, where never such animals
had meandered before, was the last
barrier between a booze-brained old
topper and stark insanity last week
when the menagerie OF the ". l..
Clark shows which performed here
last night. made their overland trip
TO the mining camp.
The old soak referred to was slow
ly recovering from a case OF delirium
tremens and was not wholly at ease
with his conscience even then. He
was, however. familiar with all the
fauna OF the Rockies which had
their habitat about Telluride and
the San Juan hills. and when, look
ing out of his window, he saw the
pachyderms leading a procession of
wagonettes on the trail a hundred
feet below the railroad in the bot
tom of the canon, his last yestige of
reason collapsed. With a scream of
terror he leaped straight up in his
seat, and frantically clutching the
framework in the top of the coach he
let out yell after yell of abjeet hor-
ror
It was some moments before the
frightened passengers could quiet
the fear-stricken toner and determine
his trouble. Finally with shaking
finger he pointed out the slowly
moving cavalcade and wanted to
know If those were really elephants
or was It another hallucination SINH
lar 10 the collection of snakes he
had viewed ON the foot OF his bed the
night before.

Chief Justice Russell OF the Court
OF Special Sessions of New York. is in
London studying the juvenile court
system here. He has been very cor
daily received by his colleagues of
the English bench. most of whom
are keenly interested In his work.
Among the prominent English JUS
tices who have assisted him in his
Investigations are Lord Chief Justice
Alverstone and Justice Coleridge.
Judge Russell finds that In many
respects the people interested in
juvenile delinquency here have made
close study of the American ju-
venile courts, which have been pi-
oneers in the movement, but he
found many points. especially in
procedure, which he would like to

Much interest has been excited in
maritime and engineering circles by
the announced determination of the
government to appoint royal COM
mission to investigate the problems
associated with the future means of
propelling warships. with special ref
erenee TO the use OF oil. The chair
man OF the commission will be admir-
al of the Fleet Lord Fisher, formerly
First Sea Lord OF the Admiralty.
II is generally believed that the
appointment of the commission is a
tacit recognition that the future pro-
peliant of warships will be oil in
stead of coal, and the prophesied
death knell of the steam engine Is
causing some uneasiness.
In the days OF sail propulsion the
British navy was supreme, for the
Britons we're excellent sailors. and
when steam supplanted canvas she
remained in the premier place be-
cause the British engineers not only
mastered the new power. but the
enormous coal reserves of the United
Kingdom gave her great advantage.
But with the advent of oil she losas
several of these advantages.

British nation will not have an ad-

WILLING TO TOTE FAIR

Not wishing to gain any more prom
inence by way of argument in the
press, but at the same time wanting
to be honest, and to keep others so,
| want to answer a question submit
ted by an article published yesterday.
In doing this, am going against the
wishes of my many friends, but /, as
one, am not afraid of the truth, for
even though it be crushed to earth,
it will rise again. Newspapers arc,
or should he, like business men, if
there is change to get bargain get
it. If they don't it is the fault of the
representatives not of those who have
the news to give out. If there is a
"cat in the bag" and, they say new
broom sweeps clean, whose fault is
it that the up-to-date reporters don't
get the cat out? The fact about the
matter is this: The resolution refer
red to which causes our new paper to
rise in it's might and fear disaster to
everything earthly is bugaboo with
out it's horns. 1t was the thoughts
of many congcstcd in a few words
and given to the clerk of council to
present, at the next regular meeting
One member championed it and as far
as bonefitting any candidate for office
| will state that Mr.. Snowden, the one
assailed, in the dark, was sick in bed
and those who favored the resolution
did not know how he stood in the
matter.
In clean campaign we should hcw
to line, but let's be honest and rem
der to Caesar the things that arc Cae-
sar's. | have no fear that a man
whose family has lived through seve-
raj generations honest and upright
and who stands four square to every
wind that blows, will let these !
trivia things bother him when he is
ignorant of their existence. | want
to say it is good thing to have chick
en- or turkey for dinner if you don't
have to rob roost to get it, thereby
injuring someone else. The disting-
uished candidate who is opposing |
Mr.. Snowden is d good thcorlst,
but in practice he is a poor ball play
err. Everyone wants their property
improved, and great many would
like to get it for nothing, and some
representatives like we have in the
lower board can give over them con-
yincing arguments as to why they
should refuse to pay for it. They
will tell them that they can't force
them, which is TOO TRUE. The
question is: Are these people who
insist on double taxing the many for
the benefit of the few, who refuse to |
pay for what they get the full bcne- |
fit of, advocating good legislation
for the people.
In conclusion | want to say, as far
as am individually concerned, am
anxious and dcsirious for street i'm
prpvements. | want to face the issue
sguarcly, let the result be what it /,
may to me but | am honestly opposed
to the methods as advocated by some
of my associates in council who wish
to improve and advance the value of
certain property without the owners
sharing in the burden Of said improve
mcnts.

President Taft sent the following
message:
Grover Cleveland earned the sin
ccrc gratitude of his countrymen, and
Justified recurring memorial occasions
like the one in which we are taking
mart. He was great president, not
he was great lawyer, not because
he was brilliant orator, not because
he was a statesman of profound learn
ing. but because he was a patriot
with tho highest sense OF public duty,
because he was statesman OF clear
perceptions, OF the utmost courage
of his convictions, and OF great PLAIN
ness in speech; because he was man
OF the highest character, q father
and husband Of the best type, anu
because throughout his political life
he showed those rugged virtues OF
the public servant and citizen the en-
ulation OF which by those VINO follow

ing member of Clcveland's first 0ftlc-
ial family with the exception of Don
aid N. Dickinson. ex-PoStpaster Cen
sral. He said he would not try to-
eulogize Cleveland. for the things
thai came into his mind were the
memories Of many days like Satur-
day, when he and Cleveland used to-
take long walks out into the country
from Washington. Herbert spoke
of the political struggles OF the Cleve-
land Administrations and compared
the history of that time with the d'i-
ljcultics that besct Washington. JET
fcrson. and Lincoln. Cleveland, ne
said, was worthy to stand with the
other three. His position was I'M
iuuc. and of all of our Presidents he
had cared less for public opinion
