Your Number, Please?

What is the number please ?
This will soon be a common in
quiry in Arvada if the people
will only see the town clerk and
get their house numbers and put
them on. Rev. Sanderson was
the first to do this, his number
being 5S2, Grandview Avenue.
1t was very appropriate that he
should be the first, as he intro
duced the motion to create the
house numbering ordinance,
while he was a member of the
town board. Let all. others
promptly follow his example.
The figures can be had at 5 cents
apiece.

Automobile Signal Agency.

Chas. Graves has secured the
agency of Jefferson County for
the National Automobile Signal,
better known as the kruse Sig
nal, and is now ready to receive
orders for the same. 1t is only
a question of time until some sig
nal device will be required on all
automobiles, is the belief OF
many autoists and particularly
those who drive about Denver
and other large cities. The traf-
fic officers of all large cities are
feeling the need of a universal
signal code of some kind that
will aid in handling the traffic on
congested thorofares. Commits
sioner of Safety Nisbet of Den
yer has given the Kruse Signal
his Endorsement as the most prac-
tical and at the same time eco
nomical signal device and as he
has recently been elected a men,
ber of the Public Safety Associa-
tion which comprises 100 large
cities in the federation his in
dorsement should have great
weight in introducing this devicb
in those cities. Whether or not
an ordinance is passed in Denver
requiring mechanical signal de-
vices on cars, the Kruse Signal
will be recognized as substitute
for the hand signal and the own
er of car using it may feel per
fectly secure. BY its use there
is no chance of the intentions OF
the driver being misunderstood
and in case of accident it would
be unimpaachable evidence in fix
ing the blame. The cost is only
$1,000 fully equipped and this
much and more would be saved
by the avoidance of a single ac-
cident. Anyone interested will
do we'll to see a demCnstration OF
it on Mr.. Graves car. -

HAUL MATERIAL
To BUILD PLANT

Stone and sand are being hauled
to the site of the new powder works
to be built for Lewis Nixon at Mill
vile, and 1t is believed that actual
work in erecting the different build
tngs for the plant will be started this
week Joseph L. Crowell, business
agent of the Carpenters Union, was
at the scene of operations last week
and had conference with represent
atives of Mr.. Nixon in reference to
the employment of union carpenters
and other trades workers from this
city on the job. Mr.. Crowell was as
sured that he would be notified soon
as to whether the work would be
done by union men or on the open
shop basis.
George F. Reynolds, president of
the Citizens Relief Committee, has
already made an effort to get local
working men employment in the con-
struction of the buildings for the
plant, and ii is thought the new
structures for the powder factories
win open several hundred Jobs for
men in this city.

TAKE LOCAL BOYS
TO JAMESbURG

One incorrigible youth and two
vagrant boys Of this city were taken
to the Jamesburg Home for BOYS
Saturday by order of Judge DAILY
after he had considered their cases
in the juvenile court.
There were four boys from this
city arraigned before the Judge. They
were Charles and Walter Cares, Of
421 Market street; John Kolesezar,
charged with having stolen a bicycle
and articles of clothing from the
grammar school, where he was a
pupil. and Michael Gasko, fourteen
years old, arrested by his own mother
as an incorrigible. Each of the four
was fifteen years old or younger.
Koiesezar made a plea for another
chance before Judge DAILY, and es-
capped being sent to the institution
with the other three and was placed
ON probation.
Twelve Months at Jamesburc.
The other three will have to spend
at least twelve months at Jamesburg.
For every month of good behavior at
the institution they will be given a
badge of honor. When they receive
twelve of these they are released on
probation for year. II during
month they misbehave they are not
given badge, and have to serve that
much longer before being placed on
probation.
George Cares, father OF two of the
boys sent to the Institution, accom-
panied his sons before the Judge and
made plea for them In vain. Cares
was held for the grand Jury last
week on a charge of abandoning his
family, but later the recorder decided
that sufficient punishment would be
ninety days in Jail, which term he
has already begun serving. The man
Is alleged to have deserted his family
and left them In want, as charges on
the city, and was arrested after being
traced for week by the police.

Arguing Final
Issue to Bring
Than, Libert ty

New York, March 15:-A prelude
to Harry X. Thaw's final and decisive
strategy to remain out of Matteawan
asylum was the arguments today be-
fore Justice Page upon motion to
have Thaw returned to New Hamp-
shire. A decision by Page was not
expected for several days.
Attorneys for Thaw and the state
today prepared, however, for habeas
corpus proceedings which will test
Thaw's sanity. Even If Page decides
Thaw should be returned to New
Hampshire it is probable that this
sanity trial will be held. A favorable
decision from Justice Page, attorneys
explained, would free Thaw, but
would in effect exile him from New
York. Thaw desires complete vindi-
cation of his sanity. A jury trial
probably before Justice Cagegan, in
about month, is the present tenta'
tive plan,

DEPUTIES TRIAL
FOR MURDER To
OPEN Al PR|L 9Th
Court House viii be Ready,
Florance Assures Justice
James J. Bergen, of Supreme
Court, Who is to Hear Cases.

Supreme Court Justice James J.
Bergen has set Tuesday, April 6, for
the beginning of the trial of the
twenty-five deputies" held without
hall in the county Jail on indictments
charging the murder of two striking
fertilizer workers at Roosevelt jan
uary 10, AMI atrocious and simple as
sault on sixteen other strikers on the
same day.
The supreme court justice has
been assured by County Prosecutor
William E. Fjorance that the re-
modelled county court house will have
been coprs, sed by that date. Jo-
seph E. N5tcicker, of this city, who
has been retained to defend the
deputies" will appear alone for the
defense, and, 1t is believed that both
Prosecutor Florance and Assistant
sent the state.
Though Mr.. Stricken maintains 81
lence as to the manner in which the
defense will be conducted, and Will
not say whether he win insist ON the
trial of each deputy separately on
each indictment, 1t is not thought
that the defense will protest strong
ly against the placing of the deputies
on trial together on the murder
charge, as the be = means of expedit-
ing court proceedings, because. it is
said, that the defen ,e is confident
that no twelve men will find he
twenty-five guilty of murder join ly,
and having to either convict the
whole number or find them guilty,
would likely, to keep from finding
guilty any innocent man, find
the whole twenty-five not guiit7. u
is contended, II they are placed on
trial jointly that the jury would
either have to convict or acqu.t the
whole number. Whereas, If shey are
placed on trial separately, those shat
did the actual shooting, which led to
the death Of the two strikers. II that
can be proven. wnpld be found guilty

--ee ~ some who have been studying

The deputies" were arrafgned to
plead before Justice Bergen Febfu-
ary IL, when they answered as one
man, mot guilty" to the formel
question as to their guilt They
plead not guilty not only to the in
dictments charging murder, but also
to those charging atrocious and SIM
Pile assault.
The deputies" have been in Jail
since the latter part of January,
when Sheriff Edward F. Houshton,
assisted by Woodbridge. New Bruins
wick and Perth Amboy policemen,
made raid on the fertilizer works
where the men were doing guard
duty following the fatal shooting,
and lodged them In the county jail.

Think BLOCKADE
OFPROGRESOHAS
BEEN LIFTED
State Department Bases Belief
on Reports That Two Ship
loads of Sisal Were Allowed
to Leave Progreso Saturday.

Special by United Press Wire.
Washington, March 15:-The Car
rama blockade OF the port of Pro
greso was believed at the navy de-
partment today to have been aban-
doned or to have collapsed. The de-
partment based its surmise on news
that two shiploads of sisal were al
lowed to leave Progreso Saturday.
It was learned officially before the
sisal departure was reported to
Washington that President Wilson
and his cabinet has decided to tenn
porize no longer with Carranza.
The Progreso blockade would be
lifted, 1t was stated positively. IL
Carranza agreed voluntarily to cease
interfering with American commerce
from the port it was said he would
please the administration greatly.
Otherwise 1t YVES declared the cruis-
er Des Moines, now off the harbor,
would keep armed gunboats at a
distance.
The blockade of Progreso followed
the defeat of Carranzista troops by a
force of Yucatan natives. The
Washington administration reached
its decision following pressure by big
agricultural interests. Secretary of
Agriculture Houston reported to the
White House that unless cargoes OF
sisal, which is used in making hemp
rope. were allowed to leave port i'm
mediately, that when time came to
reap next years harvest, harvesting
machines would be out of commission
because there would be no hemp.
The state department has notified
Carranza, through Consul Silliman
that it does not recognize his right or
the right of any other de facto gov
ernment to blockade a port over
which 1t has no control.
