NEW COUNTY BILL
AND STRIKE BAN
BEING PLANNED
entinel Special Service.

Sentinel Special Service.
Denver. Oct 1.-THE Colorado Di-
rect Legislative League proposes at
least two laws that If enacted would
relieve the state of much unnecessa-
ry turmoil, suffering, bloodshed and
restitution, even II the league as a
general proposition is not looked up
on with much favor The two laws
are, one with reference to the crea-
ton of new counties and the other
the prevention of labor strikes such
as now infect practically the whole
state.
The league has decided to initiate
law depriving the state legislature
of the right to create new counties.
Under the proposed new law the pow
er to create new county is left en-
tirely with the people to be affected
by the change. If such a measure
were now on the statute books there
would be no such an affair as the
Alamosa controversy which will soon
be tried in the district court here.
All the evidence to be offered on both
sides, it is understood here, has been
complied ready for use.
The other law to be urged by the
league is one making smelters, coal
mines and sugar mills public utilities,
subject to the control of the state.
With such a law strikes and indus
trial troubles would be effectually
eliminated from Colorado. For this
reason, 1t is being claimed that the
proposed law should be passed, and
probably will be If put up to vote
of the people of the state at the next
election.

Sentinel Special Service.

oentlnel special service.
Denver, Oct. 14.-C. C. Daniels, a
brother of Secretary of the Navy
Josephus Daniels and a special as
sistant to the former attorney gem
eral, has left Denver for Washington
after investigating certain features
in the case of the United States
against the Denver & Rio Grande
Railroad company. He declined to
state the result of his efforts, as he
considered it improper to do so be-
fore submitting his report to the at
torney general.
The suit, he said, was brought in
1902 in the federal district court Of
Colorado, for the purpose of receiv-
ing several hundred thousand dol
lars from the railroad company for
cutting timber within the government
reservations near the railroad and ex-
tending through "a counties clear
to the Utah state line. 1t was referred
to two United States commissioners
to take evidence. and finally to Rich
ard Peete of Denver, as master.
Over four thousand pages of testi-
mony were taken and in August the
master filed his findings with the
court, ordering judgment for the
government. but in so much smaller
an amount than it claimed that 1t
filed exceptions. which will be con-
sidered by Judge r. e. Lewis Nov.
10.
Mr.. Daniels says he was taken
from his special work to look into
this case. He has been suing in Min
nesota to set aside several hundred
deeds of land given by Indians in the
state to white men. AS this is for
bidden by law. the grantees are con-
tending that the deeds in question
were executed by Indians having
white blood, and that the Clapp act,
recently passed by congress. made
such transactions lawful. He said
the United States supreme court
would be asked to determine how
much white blood an Indian must
ppssess before he could grant away
his lands.

Hooded Snakes.

The hoods of snakes were un- occasionally intended by nature to act as weapons of intimidation, for when suddenly opened, as they are during the excitement of d contest, these give their owners an apparent and formidable cnlargcment.' But the hoods which have been so use full at some period in snake history have now become so enlarged as to tend toward the extinction of their owners, just as the overdevclopmcnt in the tusks of prehistoric animals led straight to their destruction. During a fight the hooded snake in the act of striking his foe suffers from the outstrctched and weighty hood. He ovcrbalanccs himself and topples forward. His assailant (the mongoose and some birds especially scizcs him when prostrate and, rip ping up the back of the neck, speed ily dispatches him.

GREAT BEACON LIGHTS.
Makaiuu Points Winking Eye and the
 Marvel at Navesink.

The largest lens of the United States lighthouse service is located' in the Makaluu point light, Ha- waiian Islands, and is eight and three-fourths feet in. diameter. The light is what is known as the oc- cutting light and is eclipsed for one and onc-half seconds every nine sec onds, giving that winking effect.
 The most powerful light in this country is situated at Navesink on the highlands of New Jersey, just outside of New York harbor, and shows each five seconds flash of light of one-tenth second duration. Although on account of the curva- ture of the earth's surface this light cannot be seen further than dis tance of twenty-two miles, its beam has been reported by ships to have been observed in the sky as far away as seventy nautical miles.
 In Alaska there are many lights supplied by acetylene gas tanks of sufficient size to maintain flashing light for as long a time as five months without refilling or any at tention, giving in that time nearly 5,00O,000 flashes. Alaska has all together ninety-fve lighthouses, and most of them are in localities where it would be almost impossible to keep an attendant or ask hu- man being to stay, so that the estab- lishmcnt of these lights would have been impossible if it were not for these gas supplied beacons.
 At Point Retreat, Alaska, is a powerful beacon which flashes q strong light every three seconds for five whole months, but probably the record for continuous service on one charging and without attention is the gas beacon placed on Richard sons rock, a wave swept rock off the Santa Barbara islands, Cal, where it would have been pretty ex
 pensive to have established light house with quarters for the keep CTS. This beacon flashes its warn- ings every three seconds for seven continuous months or nearly G,000,- 900 times without recharge.-Dr. c. q. Percival in Health.

Great indian Acrobats.

The travelling acrobats who wan der from village to village in India are often surprisingly clever. In a remarkably short time they will erect their primitive apparatus, con sisting of few bamboo poles and ropes and will then go through a most wonderful performance, the daring and skill of which would greatly astonish people used to western acrobatic feats. The poles and ropes are fixed up in the most haphazard fashion. and the per formers risk their lives over and over again. well satisfied if, at the end, the audience rewards them with a few annas.-Wide World.

MARRIAGE BROKERS.
They Play . Queer Sort of Game In
 EnQlish Society,

en9IiSn Soc'ety.
 There exist in British social life certain individuals known as "mar- riage brokers" They move in the highest ranks and gain, often un- known to their friends, enormous commissions for making desired "match" possible. In some cases, says London Tit Bits, a match is made as an ordinary business ar rangement-that is to say, each party to the contract, the prospec- tive bride and bridegroom, are aware how their meeting, has been brought about, and each is prepared to pay a handsome commission for the introduction; but these cases are few and far between.
 What causes the business of the society marriage broker to be great ly looked down on is the fact that most usually society matrimonial agents work in secret. They are received at the best houses, and their hostesses, all unsuspectingly, are made catspaws to obtain intro ductions. Needless to say in case like this there is always one vic- tim, for either the man or the girl is drawn into the match unsuspect- ingly, little thinking that the per son who brought about the intro duction may derive a lifelong in- come as the result. Sums of 920,- 900 and more have been known to change hands as commission in this way.
 Very often the society marriage broker sets his bait by an adver- tiscmcnt in one of the most ex- elusive society papers. Advertise ments of this kind are usually shrcwdly disguised, taking the form in most cases of tempting offers of employment for impecunious gen. tlemen of high birth. In this way an interview is arranged, and in the most artful manner possible the proposal is put forward to provide the applicant with wealthy bride in return for a heavy commission when the wedding is duly solemniz- ed. In many cases the impecunious gentleman falls in with the scheme. Should he not do so, however, a promise of strict secrecy is usually extortcd, and the marriage broker sets about attracting some more will ling fish to his net. Too often the society marriage broker is member of the fair sex. In this case few manage to escape from her schem- ing.

Good Advice,

The revivalist Sam Jones was once taking women to task for spending more time in prinking than in praying. ''lf there's wom- an here," he screamed finally, 'who prays more than she prinks, let her stand up." One poor old, faded specimen of femininity, in the sorri- est, shabbiest of clothes, arose. "Y ou spend more time praying than prinking?" asked the preacher, talk ing her all in. The poor old crea- turc said she did-prayed all the time, prinked not at all. "You go straight home," admonished Jones, "and put little time on your prink- ing"
