Mrs, Clark Hostess
to Shakespeare Club

Roll call at the second meeting
of the Shakespeare club. held
Tuesday evening with Mrs. d. E.
Clark, was responded to with quo
tations from WI Tingfang, the
great Chinese statesman.
The early history of China was
given by Miss Louise Theobald,
and her paper was a good example
of the difficult task of selecting an
article of reasonable length and of
great interest from an almost end
less amount of material.
Fitting in nicely with this paper
was Mrs. Margaret Robins excel
lent one on Confucius.
The Chinese drama and theatre
were interestingly portrayed by
Mrs. W. S. Leebrick. All, or nearly
all, women's parts are taken by
men who live ladylike lives from
childhood to be able to act nat
urally.
Mrs. G. w. Hoy sang several
songs with airs adapted from the
Chinese. The melody and har-
mony of the clever little airs were
quite at variance with a general
opinion that there is little of either
in Chinese music. The accom-
paniments were beautifully played
by Mrs. r. w. Mcbride.
The next meeting of the Shakes
peare club will be with Mrs. 9. l..
Jaynes. a*.s

LOCAL ELKS LODGE

II Candidates Introduced Into
Mysteries of the Order: 100
Visitors Present; Elks Make
Wonderful Growth.

Another good time was expert
enced by the Elks at their meeting
Tuesday night, when there were
II candidates initiated. They were
from the vicinities of Bergen Park,
Evergreen, Grand county, and the
upper end of Clear Creek county,
and the local officers put on the
initiatory work.
There were about 100 visitors
and so local men in attendance,
and after the session a barbecue
banquet was served.
The Elks do not believe in doing
things by halves, and whenever
they put on stunt" it is always
up to snuff" 'Nuf sed

DAK0TANS FUSE
TO BEAT LEAGUE
Republicans and Democrats 10
more National Issues in Fight
ing the Nonpartisans; Town
ley's Private Secretary Bolts.

Fargo, N D., Sept. 3O.-Interest
in the issues of the presidential
campaign is at a low ebb in this
state. National politics are in a
state of eclipse and all eyes in
North Dakota are on the contest
for control of the state government,
in which Republicans opposed to
the Nonpartisan league are united
with the Democratic organization.
j. f. t. O'Connor, the Demo
cratic nominee for governor, is
making thorough speaking cam
paign OF the state, and reports are
that be is greeted and indorsed
everywhere by leading Republicans
anxious to oust the A. G. Townley
machine from the state house.
The O'Connor campaign is being
handled by Democratic Repub-
| i ca Infusion committee, with
headquarters at Fargo. Owing to
the character of his support, Mr..
O'Connor naturally is confning
his campaign to state issues. Re-
publican and Democratic support
ers of the O'Connor ticket are
agreeing to disagree when it comes
to the presidency and they avoid
friction by ignoring that subject
as much as possible.
u RI NHltefss sJFEier nsAnape1
of the Bank Of North Dakota, and
j. Wells Brinton. former private
secretary to Townley and later the
head of his newspa per organization,
have broken with the leader and
have started hot back fire against
him with charges which soon will
be aired in the courts. They
involve the truth of Townley's s
testimony in recent bankruptcy
proceedings, in which he confessed
almost absolute poverty.
The fusion state ticket is quite
patchwork. Opponents of Town
ley in the Republican primaries
won four places on the state ticket,
and these Republican nominees
have fusion support. Other places
on the fusion ticket are filed by
Democrats. There is no fusion
candidate for United States sena-
tor DR.. Z. f. Ladd, the Repub-
lican nominee, is Townley can
didate, but is likely to get many
regular Republican votes against
FL. FL. Perry, the Democratic can
didate for the senate.
J. M. Baer, the cartoonist con-
gresham from the first district,
who was defeated in the primaries
by o. B. Burtness, is going to run
as an independent candidate at the
fall election. The fusion organi-
zation is supporting Burtness in
this district.

ECHO LAKE ROAD
Meeting to Arrange for Road
Picnic Is Called for Tuesday
Evening at the Opera House;
Clear Greek Picture to Show.

Interest in the proposition of
connecting the Chicago creek road
with the Mt. Evans highway is
growing more each day, and the
people of this community are
waking up to the fact that it is
going to mean great deal to
this place. When the road is
completed there will be no more
beautiful drive in Colorado than
over this route, and it means that
thousands and thousands of peo-
pie will be brought to our city,
who would otherwise go around
the other way.
1t is the intention Of the Bureau
Of Mines and Commerce to have
big picnic, and at the same time
accomplish lot of work to open
developments. It7is desired that
the people of Idaho Springs make
a holiday of the day set, and the
women folks fix up a nice lunch,
and the whole town get busy on
this road. The men folks will
be able to accomplish wonders,
and the women will see to it, no
doubt. that there is plenty to eat.
With this end in view, there
will be a public meeting at the
Opera house after the first show
on Tu@st.ay evs.,iasg, Gstvsss, asss'
the plans explained. It is their
intention to have the road work
set for a day in the week following
the meeting Tuesday night, and
it is hoped that everybody will
take hold and do his bit.
1t is thought that the Bureau
of Mines and Commerce will show
the pictures of Idaho Springs
beauty spots recently purchased
of j. A. Kent on Tuesday evening.
This road is a great thing for
our community, and let each OF
us make up our minds to do our
part.
The blasting will be done sew
eral days before the picnic, so no
one need have any fears of getting
hurt.
1t will be big day, and while a
great amount of work viii be done,
it will also be one Of a genuine
good time, besides feeling in after
years that we have had a part in
building one of the most popular
highways in the state.

DESIGNER BLAMED
 FOR SHAMROCK ". LOSING CUP RAGE.
Challenger's Crew Declare Canvas Three Times as
 Heavy as Resolute's.

SOUTHAMPTON, England, Sept. 20.-When Mr. Nicholson the de- signer of Shamrock ", arrived in England he placed the superior sea- manship of the Resolute's captain and crew among the reasons for the challenger's failure to lift the Ameri- cas Cup.
 Members of the Shamrock's crew. who have returned to England re- sent the slur which they consider Mir. Nicholson has thrown upon their ef- ficiency yachtsmen and declare the Shamrock's faunty handling was largely due to the interference of MT. Nicholson.
 Arthur Diaper, one of the crew. said in an interview with the Asso- ciated Press correspondent it was a case of too many cooks and he point ed to the fact that on the only occa- sion Capt. Burton was free from in terruption and advice the Shamrock won. Diaper said all of the crew were convinced that had a profess IC-Ihi 9hApBCi OECu III Iull COllIlduu of the Shamrock she would have won the first three races. He claim ed she could point as close into the wind as the Resolute but the latter was superior in reaching.
 He declared that the Shamrock was very awkward in handling and that her canvas was about three I times as heavy as that of the Reso- lute. The halliards were arranged in such a manner that the work of the men was made extremely diff cult. What could be done by ten men on the 23-meter Shamrock re- quired 30 to do on the Shamrock ". | On one occasion in setting the main sail on the Shamrock " they had 30 men on the halliards and could not move the sail.
 'In fact" said Diaper. "I have never before seen such heavy can vas on racing yacht' And then 0n the return of the yacht to City Island after the races, they found a com plete set of racing canvas for Sham. rock ". stored in Jacobs Yard.
 Another fault" continued MT. Diaper. ''is the constant changing of gear which was in progress throughout the period of the races. The topmast was changed no less than seven times in the course Of three weeks and eventually they fin ished with the original one"
