DECIDING LINCOLN
HIGHWAY ROUTE TODAY

GRAND JUNCTION, Aug. 90
The route to be taken through Colo
RADIO by the proposed Lincoln National
highway which will extend from the
Atlantic to the Pacific, probably will
be decided today at the meeting of the
Midland Trail association. The meet
ing today is to fight the proposed
route through the Overland trail which
passes through the southern part Of
Wyoming and does not touch Colo
RADIO. The Indiana pathfinders who
recently travelled by automobile from
Indianapolis to the Pacific took the
Midland trail, through Denver over
the great divide and through Grand
Junction into Utah. They declared
the roads were in excellent shape and
are expected to help the Coloradoans
in their fight to have the Midland
trail chosen.

CAPITALIZING BALL PLAYERS.

That the market for baseball play
ers is still on the upgrade clearly
appears in the reported purpose of the
Washington teams manager to offer
100000 to the Detroit club for Tyrus
Cobb, says the New York World. This
is the largest figure at which ball
player has ever been capitalized.
Is he worth it? He is still under
thirty years of age and in the full
tide of great fame and drawing
power for the grandstands and bleach
ers. But to be worth it he must have
drawing power for the Washington
club equal each year to his salary,
now said to be $12,500, and sum
additional which for short series of
years will sink this capitalized value
of 100000.
He is like a bond bought at a
heavy premium which must yield to
the buyer a good market-rate of in
terest and enough more to amortize
the premium before maturity. >Or he
Is like a slave whose capital value de-
pends upon the time during which his
present earning power may be ex-
pected to last. If the great Tyrus
can for ten years be worth to the
Washington club his salary of $12,500
and $4,000 additional plus the yearly
interest on the unpaid debt, he will
not be losing investment to that
club.
But in any case, when the great
American game develops such finan-
cial magnitudes and speculative possi-
bilities as this, some way may have
to be found for wider distribution
of the burden and risk by incorporat-
ing individual bsllplayers and having
their stock and bonds listed for trad
ing on the New York stock exchange.

CAMlNET1I CASE DRAGS ON.

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 29.-Miss
Marsha Warrington's friends say they
are afraid that Diggs is trying to
hypnotise her. When Diggs approach
ed here last night they surrounded
her to prevent him catching her eye
and hurried her away.
Miss Warrington's father was the
first witness today, denying the Diggs
story that he had threatened to kill
the latter unless he fled from Sac
ramento.
Editor Chambers and Probation Of
ficer Sullivan, both of Sacramento, tes-
titled they had never heard of the
Caminetti-Norrris scandal.
The purpose of the testimony today
was to disprove Caminetti's claim
that he was frightened into flight
b. fear of exposure.
Miss Warrington resumed the stand
this afternoon, relating the elopement
plans, largely repeating the story
related at the Diggs trial.

PUSHING WORK ON STATE
CIRCLE SCENIC HIGHWAY

The contractors are pushing the
work on that part of the great state
circle scenic highway leading from
this city to Durango, and the scores
of blasts at noon and evening have
an assuring sound that both the state
and county means business in the con-
struction of this road. The hardest
part will be completed this fall and
the balance by the middle of the
summer of 1914. Ouray is at work
and has assured Superintendent Wy
man that her part will be done by
that time and La Plata to the south
will complete the road to the county
line this fall. There are two big
crews at work on Elwood Pass and
that road will be open early next sea-
son. So we may say with confidence
that the great scenic highway will
open for tourists travel easily by
July Of next year.
Let the trio of counties, San Juan,
Ouray and La Plata join hands and
keep the good word going and the re-
suit will be one Of the greatest scenic
routes in America.-Silverton Miner.

URGES MANY CHANGES
IN EDUCATION OF CHILD

BUFFALO, N. Y, Aug. 2S.--Uring
smaller classes in the schools and
more time spent on the physical well
fare of the pupils, DIR. Joseph Lee,
member of the Boston school COM
nnittce, and president of the Play
ground and Recreation Association
of America, today was the chief speak
er before the fourth international con-
eress on school hygiene.
When we realize fully what it
means to the health and mental de-
velopment of our children" declared
DR.. Lee, 1--WE will cut the size of
present day classes in half. In our
elementary schools this would increase
the efficiency of the teacher and the
mental and physical development of
the children 75 per cent. 1t would in
crease the cost of the public schools
80 per cent, but the children's lives
and their development into healthy,
happy, useful citizens are well worth
it. While the actual cost of running
the schools would be increased 80
per cent, the taxpayer would not be
called upon TO pay cent more money.
The difference, and more, would be
made VI in the saving of the expenses
of municipal hospitals and charity as
sociations
TO the normally bright pupil the
present system is an intellectual hob
bic, for such pupils must he held back
50 that the slower or duller child
can grasp what is taught. There
should be special classes not enly for
the deaf and dumb but also for the
noramlly quick child and for the back
ward pupil. 1t is crime to hold
back the bright child by the presence
of the dull pupil.
eve should have half day schools
in certain grades and more frequent
holidays and half holidays with plen-
ty of systematized outdoor play in
between in order to keep children in
terested and energetic to learn. Hhalf
near teuiess III pupls - ucNciopcu
through the monotony of unbroken
study is serious drawback to learn
ing. 1t is almost as bad as one hour
of study a day with the remaining
hours spent in idleness.
"That hygiene should be taught in
the schools is now admitted by all
thinking people. The children Of to-
day spend more time in the school
than they do at home, and it rests
with the school system whether or
not they develop into useful members
of society. The end toward which we
are working can only be reached by
nalvmg the size of the classes"
The rural school as recreation GEN.
ter was urged by Clara L. Van Slyck,
of the Russell Sage foundation of New
York. Among other topics discussed
today were Health Supervision Of
College and University Students"
Crippled Children" and "The Need
of Medical Inspection in the Public
Schools"

HOW CHICAGO is REFORMING

CHICAGO, Aug. 28.-Chicago a
wicked town?-Oh mercy no. Chi
cago, like the Bowery, Barbary Coast
and Butte, Mont, is reforming-or at
least pointed that way. and is thinking
quite seriously of taking to herself
the musical comedy refrain: "Pm
trying so hard to be good"
And in evidence that she is at least
making the effort, Chicago would
have you take look at the volumi-
nous reports and recommendations Of
her Investigators, at her recently en-
acted ordinances, regulating art, ques-
tionable dances and clothes and at
her newly adopted policy of pinch
ing" half hundred suspected Jack
rollers" in the West Madison and Des-
PLANES street districts every day. 1t
may be mentioned too, with just
suggestion of wink that Chicago has
no "red-light" district, that disorder
ly houses have all been closed and
that the former habitues have van
ished as if in thin air. The police
department will tell you that without
even the wink.

son, returned to Denver, after making
a visit Of several days in the Sill
verton district. While here these gen.
tlemen made an examination of the
tailings from the Silver Lake mills,
on which they have lease. Mr..
Whitley is the inventor of the famous
Whitley tables, which are used in al
most every successful mill in the conu-
ty, and has now patented new table
o. device for concentrating ore which
promises to be a great improvement
upon the regular Whitley table. 1t IL
to test this new invention that these
gentlemen have become interested in
the lease of these tailings.
1t was ANNOUNCED that the plans had
been perfected for the erection of
5OO-tcn mill near the Silverton North
ern railroad, and to install this new
table. The concentrates that will be
worked first are the tailings at the
old mill at the Silver Lake mine.
These tailings were impounded by the
late E. G. Stoiber when he was op-
Grating that mill, by running them
into the lake. Mr.. Stoiber always con-
tended that time would come when
they would be valuable, as he realized
that improvements would be made in
milling machinery such as to enable
them in later times to save values
he could not save at that time. This
new mill will do the things Mr.. Stoi-
ber hoped to do himself
The tailings will be flumed down
the hill from the mine to the new mill
by the railroad, and handled by the
mill there. 1t is estimated that there
are sufficient tailings impounded to
run the proposed new mill steadily
over five years. After that, they can
handle the tailings from the mill now
being operated by the Silver Lake
and other mills in the vicinity.
We are informed that the contract
has already been let for the lumber
and material for building the new mill
and that active work will commence
in a short time, with the expectation
of getting the mill in operation be-
| fore the winter season sets in. 1t viii
be a great thing for this district, as
there are many million of tons OF
tailings which have accumulated from
the operations of the mills of the
county during the past twenty OF
thirty years.

Irrigated land, properly handled, is
the most productive in the world. Sta
tistics show this. This year 125,0O0,-
600 is the estimated loss from drought
that hit the corn crop in the midwest
grain belt. Wheat also suffered heav-
lily. Irrigated land will justify the
promises made for it, and those who
think of coming to the irrigated west
should not be deferred by the cam
paign now going on in the east to
check the movement westward. This
campaign is partly based on the de-
fective financing of some of the large
irrigation projects.
