Colorado Marble For Lincoln Memorial
The white marble of which the
great 50, 100000 Lincoln memoir
ial temple is to be built on the
banks, of the Potomac in Wash
ington is to come from the Sopris
national forest. Colorado.
This is said to be the first great
buildlng III the east to be con-
structed of this stone, known to
the building trades as Denver
marble, though much of it has
been used as an interior finish
in public buildings: In the west
a notable example of its use is
found in the new federal build
ing at Denver.
While the marble quarries are
In the midst of the national fer.
ests, they are on private land Sc
cured under the laws by which
areas bearing deposits of building
stone are disposed of by the gov
eminent. Under the law pro-
spectors can locate and secure
title to mineral deposits on the
national forests just as they can
on the open public domain. The
marble company which owns the
quarTies is large user of nation
al forest timber IN the working
of its properties, situated near
Marble, Colo.
The history of the company is
said to be Of considerable inter
est, as representing indomitable
enterprise against difficulties.
The country in which the marble
deposits occur is extremely rough
and precipitous, and for long
time was inaccessible because of
a lack of transportation facilities.
Large sums had to be expended
before the stone could be gotten
out and brought to market. Up
to 1907, when the product first
began TO attract attention, it is
said that 81, 300, 900 has been ex-
pended in developing the prop

MISSIONARIES IN CHINA
ARE TORTURED FOR
DAYS BY BRIGANDs
Children For Ten Days Hidden Under
a Heap Of Straw

Peking, Oct. 9.--Some of the
narrowing experiences of the
missionaries who fell into the
hands of Chinese brigands under
the leadership of "White Wolf"
at Tsaoyang, we're told today in
a dispatch from Rev. Christian
Stokstad of the Hauges Norweg-
ian Mission. The bandits sur
rendered their captives last
night.
"When the government troops
entered Tsaoyang,' says the
message, "they found two mis-
sionaries. Rev. Geo. Holm and
Rev. H. Fauske, merely living
skeletons, The children had been
for ten days hidden under a heap
Of straw.
.For the frstthree days they
were without water. Afterward
water was obtained, but the cap
tives were without food for long
periods. The bandits searched
their hiding place and thrust
bayonets thru the straw, grazing
the limbs OF those hidden be-
meath"
The belief prevails in Peking
that the bri6ands became alarm
ed lest foreign governments
should take action.

unless 1t Is relieved in the very near
future. The price on all hay is tending
strongly upward and mixed hay was all
yanced 81 on the ton yesterday. Alfalfa
is as yet unchanged but unless new ship
ments arrive today the price will probably
advance.
