MEXICAN GETS DRUNK
 ON FLORIDA WATER

Jose Moline finished serving a ten day sentence in the city jail yester- day morning, having been convicted on charge of being drunk and dis orderly. Yesterday afternoon Police man Duncan arrested Jose Moline and placed him in the city jail on a charge of being drunk and disorderly.
 Upon leaving the jail yesterday Jose told Duncan. he got a sudden fit of dryness aad was unable to find a bootlegger as a means of appeasing his thirst. He said he felt there must be some way to quench his thirst and sat down a long time and thought for a way out. Finally he got an inspira- tion and went to a drug store and bought three bottles of Florida water and drank two bottles and the world looked brighter, and became so ex- ceedingly bright that his feet took wings. Duncan said he did not see any wings but could testify that Mo- limos feet appeared inclined to go in one direction while the remainder of his body appeared inclined to want to go in the opposite direction.

AMERICANS GROW
 MORE SAVING
(American Crickster)

Evidences are accumulating that the habit of saving among the American people, especially among the patrons of savings banks and postal savings, is outtripping the financial demands made upon them by the government.
 While no exact figures are available at present, it is known that postal say ings deposits have steadily gained dur ing the year 1917, and notably since the first of July of that year, which was after the first issue of the Li6- erty Loan.
 The reports from savings banks also show a steady gain, and the same is true of cooperative building and loan associations.
 Nor have the people of small means been the only savers. It is estimated that the savings of the whole people of the United States, ordinarily $5,0O0,- 000,000 to Se,0O0,0OO, 900 annually. were increased to $14,OO0, ,OO0,O 900 to $15,OOO.- 000,000 in 1917.
 The response of the people to the national need of economy and saving has been general and generous

INITIATED BLADE
 OF SAFETY RAZOR
Commerce Renortsl

During the years just previous to the outbreak of the war American safety razor companies had been able to in troduce and to create a demand for their products. Throughout Northern Europe, the leading American safety razors were well known, and large numbers of high-priced razors and blades were imported annually.
 It was in Germany that the American safety razor blades first disappeared from the market. During the early years of the war such blades found their way into Germany, through Scandinavia, but this traffic had ceased entirely by the end of 1916. During the year 1917 several imitation safety razors appeared on the German markets, most of which were exact counterparts of the leading American razors. Some of these counterfeited raZors and razor blades have now been exported to Scandinavia and are to be purchased in many of the stores which before had sold American razors only.

I'm SaNony and Wurtemberg the daily wheat ration has been reduced also to five ounces.

In England and France. thanks to our enormous savings Of pork and beef the meat ra- tions vary from twentyfour ounces to thirty ounces person each week.

DOG RECOGNIZES

In his "reminiscences Spy stretches my credulity. He had painted a full length portrait of his host at a country house. When it was just finished he came down early one morning to in- spuect it-and found his hosts dog sit ting up begging before the portrait of his master
 It was Apelles, the ancient painter, I think, who depicted grapes so realis tically that the very birds pecked ac them. But in a long association with dogs, have never found one who could recognize a figure or a landscape in a picture.
 The nearest approach to such intel ligence is when l have set a looking glass on the floor and confronted a, dog with his own likeness. He groWls .;us- piciously, uncomfortably, until he walks behind to find the other dog that isn't there!

DUNCAN AND cHINN KILL
FINE BUCK, TUESDAY

As the Arvada populace was gaz-
ing into space down the various ave-
nues Tuesday little afternoon, they
observed a cloud Of dust down the
road looking toward the foot hills,
and felt that something of an unus-
ual nature was about to happen. AS
they gazed still more intently they
could discern an object that looked
somewhat foreboding, which seemed
to be responsible for the big cloud OF
dust, and to their surprise, it took on
the shape of submarine. But they
reasoned among themselves-"who
who ever saw a submarine tearing
along country road like that?" And
on came the meteoric object until
the forms OF two men were distingu-
Unstable, and as it drew nearer an
other object could be seen which hat
an unfamiliar aspect. Finally the
grey submarnish looking object drew
up and stopped in front of R. o.
Graves shop and two "khaki-clad fig
ures" got out and strutted about like
generals. Who do you suppose it
was and what do you suppose all the
fuss was about? Don't you knowi
Surely you know by this time.-The
Figures" were G. M. Duncan and B.
Chinn-what'd they have? Well, say,
you don't blame them for "strutting
around" for they had as fine buck
~ you'll see any thine. 1t weighed
$50 pounds dressed and its coat and
antlers were beauties, the latter be-
ing very symetrical and having four
prongs on eachantler.
Sunday morning Duncan, Bert
Chinn and William Miller left Arva-
dawith camping outfit, Duncan and
Chinn going to hunt deer and Miller
to hunt grouse. They pitched their
tent at point about seven miles be-
yond Idaho Springs about four o.
clock Sunday evening and started cut
Monday morning. but did not see a
deer that day. Tuesday morning at
about seven o'clock, Mr.. 'Chinn had
bunch and tod Mr.. Duncan he would
take him to where they would find a
deer. They went about city block
sbsve the camp and Duncan, gas
across the gulch from 4 clump of
bushes In the rocks, spied a deer go
up the side Of the mountain, about
600 yards away. He told Chinn. who
opened fire and brokeone Of the an
imal's hiad legs. The deer started
ed to cripple along down the hill and
about that time just opposite them
and nearly in range with the deer
they spied Miller and did not dare to
sheet uatil the deer got further down
into the gulch. Here they both fired
and brought the buck down shot thru
the body. It Is needless to say there
were some excited boys about that
time. It was just an hour and ahalf
frsa The time they left camp till
they returned with their quarry. Al
ter dressing It they set out on theD'
