FRISCO HIGH SCHOOLS
 RETURN TO FOOTBALL

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 5.-Ameri. can football has been returned to favor in the high schools of the San Francisco Athletic League after sey- eral years of rugby football.
 Up to this year only rugby foot ball was played by the high schools in the league. Recently the board of education decided to permit Amer ican football and immediately eight schools organized elevens.
 The high schools deserted the American game originally when the two big California universities, Stan ford and the University of California, switched about 10 years ago. Three years ago Stanford followed Cali fornia back into the American foct- ball ranks.

FOR P1LFERINa FREIGHT.

Early this week the sheriff's office
was asked to search westbound
freight train for parties accused OF
stealing merchandise billed for coast
points
AS result Of the tip the officers
made haul and landed in jail three
negroes and two white men. When
Sheriff Ackley of Eagle county was
here few days ago two of the negroes
confessed to him and Sheriff .Tessup
that they were guilty of the offense
charged, and that they robbed west
bound freight train of the dry goods
found in their possession, but they said
the other negro and the two white men
had nothing to do with the crime.
Inasmuch as the offense was commit
ted in Eagle county, Sheriff Ackley
took the confessed criminals to Rcd
Cliff, where they repeated their con-
fession to the district Judge and each
was given a penitentiary sentence.
The other men were set free.

sTRAUD M. LOGAN IS
NEW DISTRICT JUDGE.

Thursday morning word reached
Glenwood from Denver to the effect
that Governor Shoup had just appoint
ed Straud NJ. Logan of Grand Junction
as the new district judge of the Sew
enth judicial district, this being the
second Judge for that district, the aP-
pointment being authorized by recent
act of the late legislative session.
Mr.. Logan is well known to the legal
fraternity throughout the western
slope country as lawyer skilled in his
profession and very successful in his
practice. He is especially well versed
in irrigation law, and has been unus-
ually successful in practice / nthat line
of his profession. He has few cases
now pending in GlenwoOd which will
probably be disposed of before he takes
his seat on the bench as one of the
Judges of Judicial District No. 7, Judge
Black being the other.

METHODISTS GET
CLEANUP SPIRIT

Some few weeks ago the ladies of the
local Methodist church gave supper,
to which they invited their husbands,
in honor Of very important event.
the cancellation of a debt of over ten
years. standing, and the cancellation
of note which had been drawing ten
per cent. interest all these years.
The accomplishment was one Of such
great Importance, and was the cause Of
such great pride and thanksgiving on
the part of the women, who magnified
their accomplishments to the men to
the extent that the latter became
ashamed of themselves and decided it
was about time they should step out on
the right foot.
Accordingly, at recent meeting CT
the Mems Bible class, the need for
painting the chruch and parsonage was
discussed, and the men decided that
they had followed quite long enough
the old motto, "Let the women do the
work, do the work." etc. They de-
cided that it was their move, and they
therefore resolved to be responsible for
this very necessary work of painting,
and thus adding to the appearance and
at the same time preserving the church
property from the destructive elements.
The result of their determination was
highly satisfactory. They appointed
committee on solicitation, and made it
q point to solicit only men. The result
was most hearty response, and sub
scription fund of over $3.50 was raised,
which will be used for finishing the
church inside, and painting the church
and parsonage two coats on the out
side, thus adding greatly to the ap-
pearance of each building and greatly
preserving the same.
This is the result of the initial work
which came from small effort on the
part of one class, and simply shows
what may be done in good cause,
under the right sort of a start, anil
proper confidence and perseverance. The
men did not ask aid from n woman or
a woman's organization, but made it II
mems appeal to men, and they are
highly pleased with the result and very
grateful to those who so freely con-
tributed to this good work. AS we re-
call it, they only met with one refusal,
and we consider this a most successful
campaign. They have not yet succeed
ed in raising quite the amount that is
needed, but few men who have not
yet subscribed have signified their in
tcntion to help some Mt the last minute.

SPLENDID ROAD WORK.

Alphonse Cocquyt, who for many
years has been interested in the road
up Cattle Creek, and who has com
planned much of the lack of practical
work in that district, assures the edi-
tor that the commissioners have named
for that district road overseer who
knows good roads when he sees them,
and that he also knows how to make
'em.
Elmer Cox is the man to whom Mr..
Cocquyt refers, and others have also
assured us that Mr.. Cox is doing some
excellent road work up Cattle Creek.
These are the kind of reports that arc
pleasing, and they have reference to
roads that are practical and useful
and that Is the kind that John Mccoy
and the other commissioners want 10
give them, and they try to appoint
men who will see to it that that very
object is attained.

Mrs. B4--.enyi and Mrs. Page both
enlisted the sincere sympathy Of the
spectators, but what effect their pfes-
ence had or will have ON the jury will
probably never bs known.
Considerable difficulty was sxpssi-
enced by the sttorneys In securing q
jury in the case. Tony Perry, one Of
tho original twelve called to the box,
and the last one to be examined, con.
fessed to having a definite opinion,
which he said it would require evidence
to remove. He was challenged for
cause and was excused.
G. @. Chase had talked to the defend
ant and had gotten his version Of the
affair, and ON account of his acquain-
lance with the defendant and the con-
versation he had had with him, he had
formed some opinion, which he believed
would disqualify him from sitting as
a juror. He was excused.
Hamilton Arthur of Divide Creek
was not quite sure that he could rem
der verdict of murder in the first
degree, no matter what the evidence
might be-that is, he admitted that he
would have scruples against rendering
verdict which would call for the
death penalty. Aside from this he
thought he could render a verdict in
accordance with the law and the evil
dence, and under the instructions of
the court. Mr.. Delaney challenged for
cause. DEFENDANTS attorney resisted
the challenge on the ground that there
was no evidence to show that the death
penalty would be called for. This mo-
ton was overruled by the court and the
challenge was sustained.
w. A. Holgate of Missouri Heights,
called to Mr.. Arthur's chair, was also
opposed to capital punishment. He was
challenged by Delaney and excused by
the court.
believer in capital punishment, and
thought he could not return verdict
in the first degree where the matter of
the death penalty was involved.
From the number Of people who were
standing up and crowdng out in the
halls, eager to catch at least some Of
the testimony, even though unable TO
get inside the walls of the court room,
the necessity of a new court room was
emphasized, even though it is to he
hoped that few occasions Of this kind
will arise to increase this necessity.

This il my town; within its gates

Its love claim l share its hates;
In all its strife and joy I join.

Protecting that help and cheer.
Here live my friends and should they frown

Nor will l condemn this, my town,
If faults in me my neighbors find.
Here l may tell my yea and nay;

BURLINGTON SECURES
The RIO GRANDE

The last barrier interfering with the
give the Burlington system direct
route TO the Pacific Coast was removed
last we.ss when Judge Lewis entered an
order in the United States district court
confirming the sale of the Denver &
Rio Grande railroad.
AS a result of this action, says the
Steamboat Sentinel, the way is cleared
for the construction Of the Empire tun-
mel, to give the Moffat road access to
Denver without climbing over the
range, and for making it link in the
new Burlington transcontinental route.
This will lead to the early construction
of the Dotsero connection, probably
during the present summer. The Moi
fat road, however is to be extended
west from Craig, to connect with Gov
ernor Bamberger's line east from Salt
Lake City through the Uintah basin,
but this extension will probably not be
opened for business until the compile
ton of the Empire tunnel.
The same interests which own the
Burlington have long held an option
on n majority of the bonds of the Mof-
fat road, and this option is now to be
taken up, if this has not already been
done. The Rio Grande crosses the
Continental divide by too indirect a
route to satisfy the desires of the Bur-
lington interests, and hence it has been
decided to use the Moffat road as
cutoff, the building of Al miles of
track from Crested to Dotsero shorten
ing the distance between Denver and
Salt Lake by over 175 miles.
From Corona west to Crested, be-
tween state bridge and Mccoy, the
present line of the Moffat road will
be used, and the connection with the
Rio Grande will follow the Grand river
TO Dotscro, at the head of the canon
above Glenwood Springs. This connec
ton will afford an immediate outlet
to the west for the coal mines Of
Routt county.
II is known that the Burlington inter
ests are not satisfied to permanently
suffer from the disadvantages of the
Denver & Rio Grande's route to Salt
Lake City, as it loses too much dis
tance by swinging far south to Grand
Junction. Soldier Summit, in Utah, IS
another difficulty, on account Of its
long and heavy grades, and hence it
has been decided that by the time the
Empire tunnel is completed the Moffat
road shall have been extended west, to
connection at the Utah line with the
road about to be built by Governor
Bambergcr. This is more direct
route, and the Wasatch range, west OF
the Uintah basin, is crossed on an cas-
icr grade than that at Soldier Summit.
The Denver 4 Rio Grande is to he
rcorranized at once as the Denver &
Rio Gram1e Western Railroad, and

HIGHWAY BILL IS
FINALLY PASSED
One Man to Have Charge Of
Work With Seven to
Make Budget
LAST MOVE OF SESSION

DENVER, April THE twenty
third general assembly of Colorado ad
journed sine die late this afternoon At
the end of one of the longest "legisla-
tive days. on the state g records. The
day was sixty five hours long. The
hour set for adjournment was midnight
Tuesday night, but when it was seen
the work could not be finished by that
hour the hands of the clock wero
stopped at 11.45 p. m.
Only nine senators were present when
Senator Francis J. Knaus made the
motion at 5.45 P. NJ. which ended the
session for the senate. Most of the
representatives were still present when
Representative William T. Lambert, Jr.,
made the motion to adjourn in the low
err house.
Governor Shoup addressed both
houses briefly in the afternoon and vir-
tually declared to the house of repre-
sentatives that there would be no spe-
cial session. An agreement early today
between the two houses on the state
highway commission bill had made the
special session unlikely.
"You have done your work so WE'LL
said the governor to the representatives
''that | believe the next time you will
be called together here will be at the
Twenty fourth general assembly"
The governor expressed approval Of
the highway bill, House bill No. 1o6,
which now is known as the seven-man
commission bill The bill was referred
to by the governor as ''your splendid
highway bill,' and he further said;
~ believe it represents the highest
type of highway legislation in any
state"
The seven members finally agreed to
in. conference are advisory only. Tho
work of the commission will be car
ried out by an engineer, and first and
final power over the commissions pol
icy rests with the governor.
Aside from signing the highway com
mission bill, the only work done today
was in the senate, where resolution
was adopted authorizing the naming of
visiting committee to inspect the
work of state educational, penal and
charitable institutions. The resolution
rol1s for thp NAMING of two hold
senators and thrc ~Hrosentatives-oleet
to the committee, which is not to func-
ton until 1929.
Not since 1876, when Colorado at
tanned statehood, has the state assem-
bly, had such long Legislative day.
according to veteran Legislators. in
1875 the legislature last day was AS
hours long, according to w. II. Adams,
said to be the dean of state senator's.
senator Adams, who has carried tick
ct to his home town, Alamosa, since
Tuesday, said that the Twenty-third
assembly's last day was the longest he
could remember.
The Twenty-third assembly convened
on Wednesday, January 5.
The highway bill just passed, and
whose passage enabled the legislature
to adjourn, is one of the most import
ant bills that came before the session,
according to the governor and house
and senate leaders. 1t amounts to taxi

ELECTION OF OUR
CITY OFFICERS.

Election day last Tuesday was most
Iuneventful indeed, and SO thoroughly
in contrast with so many of the former
contests Of the ballots which many Of
lis have witnessed, as to make the poo
pie wonder if an election was really
being held. Not only was there an ut
ter lack Of interest and enthusiasm,
due to the fact that only one set of
candidates had been nominated, but
there was no issue or "burning ques-
ton upon which the contest hinged,
if, indeed, there had been contest,
which there was not.
Only in the third ward was there
semblance Of contest, and this grew
out of the fact that some Of the voters
Of that ward were not pleased with the
nomination of E. L. Peisar, whom they
sought to defeat by rustling votes for
George Weirick. This attempt, how
ever, was not productive Of results,
and the regular nominees Of the mass
convention through its nominating COM
mittees, were successful.
Only nominal interest was taken in
the question of the city acquir-
ing lands for park purposes, apparent
ly each voter being left to decide the
question in his own way. However,
the question was decided by majority
vote of nine in favor of the Hanging
Lake park project.
The vote of the city for mayor, treas
urer and clerk, and of the three wards
for aldermen, is as follows:
