Mr.. McKibbin and friend had a
narrow escape from being killed or
seriously injured while driving the
big Sylvester car over the switchback
on the Alamosa river Monday. After
successfully passing the first curve,
Mckibbin lost control of the car on
account of the failure of the brake
and both men jumped when they saw
that the machine was backing off the
grade. The car went down the hill
for short distance and was some
what damaged. Mr.. McKibbin is
connected with the Hamilton Ma
tional bank and has been here for
some time on the Sylvester sheep
business.

PROSECUTING ATTORNEY
CLOSES RED LIGHT DISTR'T

District Attorney John |. Palmer
was in Monte Vista TIL lrsday on his
way to Saguache. Mr.. Palmer has
served notice on the denizens of Ala
mosa's red light district that they
would have to move out within few
days and he advises us that the dis
trict will be permanently closed. This
action was precipitated by the rough
house occurring last week in which
two of the girls wor" a

attorney was met with acquiescence

cording to the difference in tempera-
ment; one became very angry, one
took it as huge joke and one sat
down and cried, declaring that she
was in debt. without friends or funds
and was now being deprived of an
opportunity of making livelihood.
The red light district has fourished
in Alamosa for some forty years, dur
ing which time it has yielded con-
siderable income to the town in the
way of license and has contributed a
vast amount of sordid excitement to
the general public.

MONTE. 10; DEL NORTE !

Monte Vista and Del Norte had
social game of base ball Tuesday on
the home grounds, which resulted in
the score as stated The teams were
composed entirely of home players
and Monte showed too much talent
for the west enders The local fans
were especially interested in the
pitching of Davis and Macarthur
both of whom have good deal of
natural ability.
NSaguache has imported a few star
ball players and has perhaps the
strongest team in the valley. Ala
mosa is said to be negotiating for
McGraw and other salaried men.
These two towns will have to do all
the classy ball work for the valley,
as it does not seem as though the
other places care to invest in the
luxury of imported players. The UNI
satisfactory ending of the Alamosa-
Monte Vista game and the wrangling
in some of the other games last year
have made a situation hard to over
come, although it is doubtful wheth-
err the fans will be satisfied with
home talent performances.

 PLOT REPORTED
 AMONG CHINESE

washington, July 14.-Evidence of a revolutionary plot in China are in dicated in advices to the state depart ment from Canton to-day which told of the finding of bombs on two occa.- sions near there during the past six weeks.
 On July 8, soldiers raided a house in Canton where they discovered two bombs and a. lot of suspicious cores pondence. Two arrests were made
 On May 22, according to the ad-. vices, a tin containing ten bombs and some revolutionary letters of appoint ment, badges, etc, was found by the police outside a cottage in Honan. All the five occupants of the cottage were arrested.
 Washington, July 14.-A compromise in the Chinese opposition to the opium traffic under which six thousand eases of opium, the total stock now in Hong Kong and Shanghai. may be imported Into the provinces of Kiang Su. Kwangtung and Kiang Si, eas medi- cirles bearing special labtls.'' is told in unoficial advices reaching the state department by mall today.
 The six thousand chests may be i'm ported, on payment of royalty of $20,- 900. .Oo0 to the Chinese government for the whole quantity in Hue of permit ting foreign merchants to import into China F, GOO chests of opium this year and five thousand chests next year as provided by the British treaty.
 This arrangement is understood by officials here to be probably the result of an understanding with the British authorities with a view to relieving the merchants in the treaty port of Shanghai and the British port of Hong Kong of the burden of keeping this immense stock Of opium, whose pro- duction and sale for commercial pur- poses is prohibited in China

Perfumes however. like many other things, are snot always what they seem. Grass, ffresl1iy cut or otherwise, has had nothing to do with the production Of

ABSENCE OF ABSENTEE MAKES FRENCH SOLDIERS
 HEARTS GROW FONDER,'

Washington July 14-Not a single drop of absinthe has been admitted in the French fighting lines since the beginning of the present war, accord ing to statements here4of officials who profess thorough acquaintance with fhe French military regulations now in force.
 Moreover, they call attention to the fact that in an official decree dated March IT, last, the French govern ment prohibited the making, sale or transportation of absinthe. It is stat ed at the French embassy here that the French troops in the trenches are permitted to drink only water and even that is difficult to get at times Soldiers in the rear, who have been exposed to peculiar hardships, are permitted to have each one quarter of a ntre of ordinary wine daily. There is absolutely no consumption of alco- holfc liquors permitted throughout the army.

Here they go through a process of specialization by being steeped in strong rum or alcohol for about 24 hours, and then dried It is the drying process which causes the shiny white crystals to ap-l pear on the surface and which causes the beans to shrink and gives them their wrinkied appearance
 During the year ending June 30 1913. the United States imported 783.8sS pounds of these beans, valued at $1,14o, ,4O9.

REGISTRARS FIND 5000 ADDITIONAL
 DRlFTERS IH CITY
Floating Population o1 Bridgeport is Increased
 Greatly, Census Shows.

That there are nearly 5000 me chanics, structural iron workers, car penters and others, engaged iu the building trades here who were not in this, city six months ago is the opin- ion of the registrars of voters. Regis trars James H. Rooney and William F. Lounsbury are now making their annual canvas to prepare the new voting lists for the autumn election In their opinion the floating popula- ton of the city has been increased at least 5000 more than what it was a year ago.
 The registrars believe that at least soc Portuguese negroes have been added to what is called the float ing population With few excep- Iions they are all men. Some came to work on the Warrenite pavement for the Warren Br0s. Co, but many are employed at the Bridgeport Arms Works. They came from the Canary Islands. There are a number of Spanish negroes here from Cuba and Puerto Rico.
 The registrars report that all the small hotels, boarding houses and furnished room houses are filled and the majority of persons living in them are strangers in the city Most of the workmen are married and as soe1 as they are assured of the permanun- cy of their jobs they look for rents and move their families here
 The registrars so far have compEet- ed their canvas in the Second, Third Fourth, Fifth. Sixth and Eighth dis tricts. They have canvassed the Seventh district except Fairfield ave nue and the section Of the district be- low Main street They are now can wasting the Eleventh district.
