ELECTION CONTEST
TO Be FILED TO-DAY
Candidate Defeated for Water
Commissioner Will Ask
for Recount

An election contest embracing
every precinct on the south side or
the Arkansas river, seventeen in NUM-
Der, will be filed possibly today. ac-
cording to announcement of attorneys
for the contestor, Alex Marks. VINO
on the returns was defeated for water
commissioner by w. S. Marble by Al
votes.
Yesterday there was a conference
between attorneys representing both
sides. on a proposition of COM
promise form of investigation, but II
resulted in ON agreement. 1t Is stated
that Mr.. Marks legal representatives
who are three of the city's Wen
known attorneys, offered the attor-
news for the contestee to leave a
counting OF the vote to the board Of
city commissioners SO as to save pup
lie expense; this, 1t was stated, was
countered by II proposition to have the
city commissioners examine the oox
and the returns from precinct ~
where no second or third choice votes
clined on the ground that the con-
test proposed would be on all the pre-
cincts of the south side.
The city charter is silent on the
mode of filing an election contest. and
80 there is some question. or was
last night. about just where the con.
test should be filed. It is known that
under the statute the county court
has not Jurisdiction in school election
contests, and some claim also that
Jurisdiction is lacking in city elections
contests, tho the county court does
have Jurisdiction in such contests in
towns.
And SO. the contest may be filed
with the city commissioners or 1t may
be filed in the district court: 1t is con-
sidered not unlikely that 1t will be
filed in both the district and the city
hall
It has been understood that today
would be the last day for filing as the
statute provides that election contests
must be filed within ten days. but
it is explained that this means ten
days after the official count.

RAISE GASOLINE
PRICE IN PUEBLO

The rise in the prise of gasoline in
the past week is not due to the recent
decision of the state supreme court COL
lecting one cent per gallon from the
dealers, but is due only to the doub-
ling in the price of crude oil, accord
ing to Ray Jewel, president of the
Jewel Oil company last night.
The report that dealers have passed
the tax on to the people In raising
the price of gasoline one and a half
cents a gallon is absolutely untrue"
stated Mr. Jewel. 1.-The raise Is due to
the fact that the price of crude oil
has been increased by the refineries
in the past 40 days. and the price of
gas has been raised from one and a
half to four cents a gallon thruout the
country. Colorado is one OF the few
states In which the price has been
raised one and Il half, many others in
the oil districts are now asking three
and four cents more
Colorado may expect another rise of
one and a half cents per gallon with
In the next two weeks, according to
Mr.. Jewel, as many states have al
ready made the full advance covering
the raise by the refineries, and local
dealers are expecting another squirt in
the retail product to offset the whole
sale Increase.
The next rise also Includes kero-
sene. 1t is thought. as the price of that
product was moved up at the same
time as gasoline by the refineries. The
present price of gasoline is 24is cents.

DELvlNG INTO MOTHER EARTH
Man Has Gone Far Underground in
Search Of Riches That She
Has Concealed.

For centuries man has been engaged
in burrowing his way deeper and
deeper into the crust of old Mother
Earth, in order to extract the minerals
which she hides beneath her surface.
A century ago 900 feet was thought
to be Il stupendous depth for any
shaft; for in those days there We're
no engines capable Of pumping from
greater depths, and no system of ven
tilation had been devised which would
make it possible TO work in galleries
at 4 greater distance from the surface.
Coal pits over 1900 feet deep are
now fairly common in England, while
Belgium has two which exceed 1000
feet in depth.
But coal is not alone in having deep
pits. There is in Australia a silver
mine whose bottom is $500 feet below
the surface, while a gold mine at Ben
ligo, in Australia, has been sunk to
1900 feet.
A famous TransyaaI gold-mining
company is sinking Shaft which,
when complete, viii measure more
than 1000 feet.

Breathing Under Water.

If q swimmer is three minutes under

but NJ. Thooris, Il French doctor de-
clares that man could remain half
IN hour IL he only knew how to handle
the carbonc acid in his system.
A man proved recently to body Of
medical experts and scientists that
it was possible 10 remain under water
and laugh at the audience surrounding
l2-foot deep aquarium, cat cherries,
take out the stones. pull a WY face
when the cherry proves sour, and smile
when n pretty woman touched the
glass with a cigarette.
The secret of all This lies in using
a special method Of natural breathing
as soon rs you are under water, to eX-
hale the carbonic acid gas This
requires some practice. When this
is done you stop the nostrils, thereby
keeping off all inhalation.

Charles Dibdin did more 90 gain re-
cruits for the British navy In the ma
val war between France and England
than all of the press gangs combined,
and to him belongs the credit Of lypl-
flying the British sailor as being Of
reckless courage, generosity and sim
ple-heartedness. He sang his patriotic
songs with a fervor which was con-
tagiouS and his notes were caught up
and repeated throughout the land, es-
pecially those which referred to Adj
miral Nelson. For this the government
gave him pension of 1900 a year.
He was paralyZed about Il year before
his death, which occurred July %,
1914. The great mass OF his songs,
however, are now forgotten, although
some of his operas still infrequently
are heard, and his melody and sweet
ness are eXcelled by few. Dibdln
wrote a dozen novels, history Of the
stage and an autobiography. He was
the eighteenth child Of 4 Southamp-

BACK UNDER TIE BOWL.

After listening to gathering OF
astronomers one always has re-
stricted feeling, an uncomfortable i'm
preston of not having enough room
to move the arms and logs. Back In
the Middle ages scholar asserted
that we all lived under great in
yerted bowl bowl so low that the
birds had to be careful not TO bump
into It. Whether ii was made OF Ice
or glass the great scholar could not
decide, but he was positive that be-
yond ii the human mind could never
reach. Then came Copernicus and
suddenly the universe expanded into
the yastness Of llmitless space. He
put no restrictions to the great ocean
of nothingness in which floats the
world. Now the astronomers Insist
upon ending this dream of liberty,
says the New York Sun, They are
coming back to the old conception; in
deed, they are setting limits TO the
universe, are erecting around US a new
bowl. At the recent meeting of the
American Astronomy association at
Middletown, Conn, photographs of the
heavens were shown which, so 1t was
said, actually made 1t possible to meas
ure these limits from one edge to the
other. And so it seems, instead Of en-
joying the freedom which we supposed
was ours, we are hedged In within
narrow confines measuring only some
100000 light years. After all, what
the human race needs is elbow room.
