The judge in the Diggs- Caminetti
case grew sarcastic one day last
week at the expense of the women
who have been frequenting the trial.
He told one of the girls in the case
to speak louder Because there are
several ladies in the rear of the room
who have to lift their hands to catch
what you say" Not ladies, judge,
just women. A trial of this kind is
not only no place for ladies but it is
no place for decent men, either, re-

Assessor Pitcher says Denver has
fallen away at least ten per cent the
past year. He says merchants are
not carrying as large stocks, money
has been withdrawn to move crops,
real estate has dropped. etc. This
is an admission that should not be

Denyer's assessed valuation raises the
ratio of its taxes as compared with
the rest Of the state from 3-11 to
1-3.
This ratio is declared by practically
all business men and tax experts to
be entirely too great for the city Of
Denver to bear.
Although local officials are given
the same right to raise their revenues
in the same proportion as is the
state, city commissioners, members
of the school board and others have
given assurances that they will not
do so, but that the levy for next
year shall be decreased in at least
the same ratio as the assessed val
uation is increased.
With the state it is different. The
state treasury has been depleted, a
legacy of debt having been left the
present administration, and the full
cash valuation" law with its other
provisions was passed for the sole
purpose of putting the state upon its
feet again and giving it a chance tc

Rochester, Mimi, May 26-"J. G.
R." the mysterious man at the state
hospital, who has enlisted the aid of
the nation in establishing his iden-
tity, is believed to be Jacob R. Rot
rom, late lieutenant in the U. s. Navy,
and one of the heroes of the Spanish
American war.
This information was given in a
letter signed by. Edward Vogt of New
ark, who declares that he is sailor
and at one time served with Rotrom
on the old battleship New York. He
says his attention was called to the
case of lost identity in the Minnesota
hospital by the initials, 81. G. r" He
also enclosed a picture which he said
was an exact likeness of Rotrom.
81. C. R." when shown the name
of the letter writer, made known by
his queer signs that he once knew
Vogt. He was then shown the name
Jacob R. Rotrom. For an instant he
looked puzzled, then look of joy
TRANSPORTED his face. He used every
means in his power to make known
that he was positive that was his
name.
Although a complete search of the
navy records has not been made, Off

declare that they do not believe the
name of Rotrom appears on the en-
istment books.
