SOME PETITION S|GAERS SEEN TO
Be NOT RESIDING IN CITY LIMITS

that a close inspection of the sig
natures shows that some of the sign
ers reside outside the city limits
There are many R. F. D. route ad-
dresses given, 1t is said.
Further it is alleged that in some
instances. the handwriting leads to
the belief that one person signed the
names for several members of the
same family.
However. the law requires that
such petitions must contain a minimum
number Of signatures equal to five
per cent of the votes cast in the city
for the winner Of the gubernatorial
contest at the last state election. Last
November Pueblo voters cast 5000
votes for Gov. shoup which means
that the petition must contain 751
signatures. The petition as turned in
to the city clerk contains 1925 sigma
tpres and the commissioners have de-
cided that by eliminating signatures
OF persons residing outside the city
limits. and other signatures that may
have been placed by one member of
the family for others. there arc still
enough bonafide signers to permit the
measure to go on the ballot for the
action of the voters next month.

WELL KNOWN AS MOSES POOL
Is Believed to Be That Mentioned in
the Bible in Connection With
Great Law Giver.

In the Egyptian desert. about ten
miles east of Suez, is situated a pic
turesque pool known as Moses Well"
This is believed to be the well men
toned in the Bible, where Moses. at
the bidding of the Lord, cast branch
into the bitter waters, and they were
sweetened. Set in a deep grove of
date-palms and pomegranate trees, the
well is a dark, CAIN, mysterious look
ing pool, faithfully rejecting the
palms which fringe It's edges. The
scene Mt sunrise, when the first rays
strike the still water, is exquisite be-
yond description.
Attempts to identify various nat
ural beauties and locations with mem
tions or descriptions as given in the
Bible have always been difficult, owing
to the fact that the records of the
rulers of Egypt at the time of the cap
tivity of the Jews were destroyed by
rulers that came into power imme<ii-
ately afterward. The motive was
jealousy, and determination to wipe
from the minds of the people any re-
grets for rulers gone.

WAGE LONG WAR ON SAvAGES
Holland Never Able to Subdue Fierce
Tribe Living in Rich East Indian
Archipelago

The military forces of Holland,
which the news dispatches say are to
be reduced nearly one-half. find con-
siderable employment ia the East
Indian archipelago. nearly all of which
belongs TO the Dutch II is. a. con-
siderable territory. covering a distance
from east TO west as great. as that
from New York to San Francisco.
The wild native tribes are trouble
some. But worst of all are the Achee-
nese, who occupy little country at
the north end OF Sumatra. Acheen is
an absolute monarchy, recognizing no
authority or control from the Dutch
or anybody else
One of the longest wars in history
has been fought by the Dutch against
the AcheeneSe. II was started In 1872,
and has been going on eyer since. with
no present prospect of bringing 1t to
an end
In former days the .Acheenese, who
are Malays. engaged largely in piracy.
In their swift sailing proas they
secured the seas. capturing every I'M
armed vessel they came across. and
customarily butchering everybody on
board. BY their depredatlons they al
most destroyed trade through the
straits of Malacca
The Dutch did away with this mis-
chief by running down the pirate
craft with small steam vessels and
destroying them. But the Acheenese
are still independent and defiant on
land. When the Dutch avense an out
rage by burning their villages and rice
plantations, they retire TO inaccessible
Businesses of the mountains. @The best
the Dutch can do is to hold the ex-
IRENE northern tip of Sumatra, where
they have planted fortified town
called Kota Radja. Usually about
eight thousand troops are kept there
In garrison.
Across the base Of the tip d string
of fourteen little forts extend con
nected with the town by railroad and
telegraph. Each is defended by elabo-
rate barbed-wire entanglements and
by hedge Of the spiky plants called
Spanish bayonets. thirty feet wide,
which is even more effective. If a
fort Is attacked re-enforcements from
Kota Radia are summoned by wire.
Not far from the town is Gold
mountain, which is said to be full Of
the yellow metal; but it is outside the
line of forts and so the gold remains
undug. For the Aeheenese are just
about the most feroeious savages in
the world. a little fad Of theirs being
mutllation of their enemies. whose
legs, arms and ears they cut off.
Their country is a primeval forest,
peopled by orang-outangs and full of
"a deadly malaria.

Il You Need 2 Medicine
You Should Have the Best

Have you ever stopped to reason why
It is that so many products that are ex-
tensively advertised, an at once drop out
of sight and are soon forgotteng The
reason is plain-the article did not fulfill
the promises of the manufacturer. This
applies more particularly to a medicine
a medicinal preparation that has real
curative value almost sells itself, as like
an endless chain system the remedy is
recommended by those who have been
benefited, to those who are in need Of it.
A prominent druggist says ''Take for
example DIR. Kilmer's Swamp Root, a
preparation l have sold for many years
and never hesitate to recommend, for in
almost every ease it shows excellent re-
suits, as many Of my customers testify
No other kidney remedy has so large a
sale"
According to sworn statements and
verified testimony of thousands who have
used the preparation, the success OF DIR.
kilmer's Swamp-Root is due to the fact,
so many people claim, that it fulflls al.
most every wish in overcoming kidney,
