An ACE BETTER.
(M. Quad.)

One day there arrived at Prairie
City a man from Grizzly Gulch-A
bold, bad man. with long hair. . voice
like the roar Of lion and a terrible
thirst for rich, red blood. He stood
on the public square and whooped till
he drew a crowd. Then he flung down
his hat and cried out that 0rixslt
Gulch was full Of bars and rattle-
snakes and centipedes and alligators.
but that every varmint and reptile fed
In terror at the sound Of his footsteps.
He said he had been scalped by In
dams, run over by wild horses, struck
a ey s snsn a pursued by prairie fir: fir.
he still lived, and he was hungry for
human ears fried in bacon grease.
When things went his way he was ~
good natured as q baby and would 60

things went wrong look out! He
could remember the names Of FL men
he had buried. and he had . Door
memory at that: He was naturally .
peaceful man, but once aroused he
could not hold himself and would not
be responsible for damages.
The stranger continued talking in
this strain for q quarter Of an hour.
by which time the crowd had taken
breath and was getting ready to jump
on his hat again when man who had
been leaning against the front Of q
shanty saloon lounged over to him and
drawled out: eE

BOWSER IS HONORED.
But There IL a Sad Ending to 1t,
However.

Mr.. Bowser had been smoking and
playing with the cat, and Mrs. Bowser

"Of course not" he replied.

STATE IS ON the
COMP ANY'S SIDE

Denver, Jan. 2L.--The state Of
Colorado will intervene in the suit in
the United States supreme court
wherein the Telluride Power com.
pany seeks to enforce the law of en-
inent domain and thereby prevent
the removal of its supply ditch from
government land. Instructions to this
effect were issued last night by Gov
ernor e. M. Ammons to Attorney
General Fred Farrar.
The power company's supply ditch
was built across government land un-
der the right Of eminent domain as
1t applies to state government. The
interior department fixed a rental
charge which the company refused to
pay on the ground that 1t was too
high. The government then brought
suit to compel the company to re-
move its ditch from government land

S1.ooo.oo0 on the development of the
adjacent Burro mountain and Che
mung copper properties. The former
was acquired Ia 1910 and the latter
last year. When purchased the Burro
mountain copper property contained
about 100000 tons Of proved ore.
averaging approximately s per cent
copper and considerably development
work has been done since then. The
Chemung property was purchased for
S1,350,000 last August, and contains
several million tons Of ore averaginb
~ per cent to per cent copper.
It is planned to build a standard
gauge line from the Atchison, Tope-
ka & Santa Fe at Whitewater to the
mines, a distance OF approximately
eighteen miles. Either traffic or
trackage arrangement will be made
with the Atchison to transport the
ore over the Atchison to the COM
pany's own station at Deming The
spur to Whitewater will cost about
$350,000 and a concentrating plant is
to be erected at Tyron or Leopold
which will cost in the neighborhood
Of 100000. The road can be built
within three or four months, but it
will take from eight months to a
year to put up the smelter.
The new properties will produce
upwards of 2O,OOO,OOO pounds a year
Phelps and Dodge now produce about
124,00O,O0O pounds Of copper a year

to an explanation In detail Of the
American position by Chandler An

partment.
It Is believed here that after at
tempting to eliminate q number OF
propositions In the British note. con-
sidered not germane to the real Is.
sue. Secy. of State Knox has devoted
himself principally to the effort to
show that the term "all nations" in
the Hay Paunceforte treaty does not
necessarily include the United States
and that 1t Is entirely competent for
this government to treat its own ship
ping differently from that Of other
nations in so far as the canal Is con-
cerned.
1t is also believed that the Ameri.
can note takes up important chapters
in the negotiations preparatory to
the confirmation OF the Hay Paunce-
fote treaty that either we're overlook.
ed or purposely omitted from the Bril-
fish note.
1t Is believed that unless both ma
tons abandon the mails in favor Of
direct cable communication, sufficient
new matter has been injected into
the negotiations to warrant their con-
tinuation for some time, and 1t seems
probable that a final decision as to
whether the issues should be sub
mitted to arbitration will not be
reached in the six weeks remaining
OF the life OF the present administra-
ton.
Indeed, 1t may require some active
exchanges on the part of Secy Knoxs
successor in state department and
the British foreign Office to dispose
of the subject within the three month
that will intervene before the expira.
