sAL,oA.eunnIsoN HIGHWAY.
Road Over cochetopa Pass to Open
New State Highway.

Denver.-Constructlo work on the
new link In the Salida- a-Gunnison high
way. leading over Cochetopa Pass Is
nearing completion, reports the road
engineer OF the forest service upon his
return to Denver headquarters. the
road crew at work on q strip eight and
half miles in length over the pass
Is making excellent progress, and with
favorable weather conditions should
finish the road before winter sets In.
This new link. covering distance OF
sixteen miles. Is a cooperative pro
ject between Saguache county and the
forest service, each party sharing
equally the cost OF construction. Work
was begun last year. at which time
three miles was put through, outside
of the boundary of the Cochetopa for
est by the county commissioners, and
four and half miles was built inside
the forest under the supervision ofthe
forest officers.
According to the road engineer. this
strip is double track roadbed and fol-
lows q natural water grade. ON q
southern exposure. through the forest.
thus eliminating any need for large
bridges. The average maximum grade
is but six per cent, OF which there is
not more than three miles In the az
gregate, the remaining portion Of the
road consisting Of easy grades. BY
reason Of the low elevation, absence Of
steep grades. and the open country
through which 1t passes. 1t is expected
that the Cochetopa Pass road will
form one of the best and most trav-
eled state highways across the conti-
mental divide.

years after the death of Santa Fina.
during the lenten season Of 1484, its
walls rang with the hery eloquence OF
the young Savonarola. ~ he denounc-
ed with prophetic power and passion
tho Injuries and vices OF his beautt-
ful and proudly pagan age. The Do
minican monastery In which he was
entertained has since been converted
into . penitentiary. while the luxury
Of the San GimigAnaese. which he de-
clafed to be stencil in the nostrils
Of almighty God. has given way to al
most monastic poverty.
The walls Of our bedrooms at San
Gimignano offered the only modern
touch about the place. a. they were
elaborately frescoed In triumphant imi-
tation Of American wallpaper. which
the enterprising little proprietor evil
IDENTIFY coveted but could not afford.
Here our party was reinforced by
Mr.. x. who had spent tho last few
years studying comparative art in the
different European galleries from Ma
drid to st. Petersburg. He was a
type by himself-a broad-shouldered
six-footer who lived the strenuous life
in the superlative degree every minute
OF the day. He Travelled everywhere.
even over mountain passes. on his
wheel, which he apparently rode or
carried with equal ease and to which
was usually strapped . small library

varying in size from the huge volume
of Grove and Cavalsaselle's History

In volterra, the next place on our
program, where in those days the ar
rival of party Of tourists was hailed
as q public event. the entire popula-
tion seemed to be lined up on the para
pet to witness the approach of our
strange cayalcade. Here we spent four
busy days haunting tombs and ruins
and mentally transplanting ourselves
into the curious and ancient Etruscan
civilization.
In the cathedral and baptistry we
saw some superb examples Of the
early sculptors' art and in other
churches and palaces we found q
wealth Of pictures and frescoes that
called vividly to mind those halcyon
days when voIterra pressed into her

ASKS RETURN OF STATE LANDS
Register Hossatt alleges Coal Prep.
critics Were illegally Traded.

Denver.-Suits In equity for the re-
covery by the state of approximately
100000 acres of coal lands In Routt
county and grazing lands in Grand
county were ordered instituted by
Volney T. Hoggatt, register of the
State Land Board, upon the ground
that they were either "unlawfully OBJ
tained' or "injudiciously granted by
previous boards"
Register Hoggatt turned the COM
plants over to Attorney General Fred
Farrar who Will Investigate and bring
action either in the Federal Courts or
the United States Supreme Court. &C
cording to the plans of Hoggatt.
Hoggatt's contention Is that $4,000
acres Of coal lands now worth MIL
areas In the neighborhood of Sterling,
worth, according to Hoggatt, only 81
an acre. The exchange of lands was
consummated two years before the
federal laws authorizing such a pro-
cedure went into effect, Hoggatt
claims.
Another 'Judicious and efficient Sc
lection" withdrawn in the years 1893
and 1900 and amounting to $4,000
acres, is to be made the basis for
equity. according to Register Hoggatt.
The lands are situated in Grand coun-
ty and include choice selections In the
Gore mountains, the procedure for the
leasing OF which by Swift & Co. was
Illegal and without the sanction OF the
land board. according to charges Hog
gait says he will substantiate In court.
