ing from cold. On Wednesday he
was taken with a severe chill which
rapidly developed into pleurisy. and
pneumonia soon followed. The disease
progressed so rapidly that the attend
ing physician gave very little encour-
agement, tho all that was possible to
be done was resorted to. to check its
progress. 4.D. s- ra-..4.-
AS soon rs it was realized that the
end was inevitable, his son, Jesse NJ.

LAND OFFICE NOTES
(by Walter Spencer, Register)

The Glenwood Springs lind Office
received this week an executive order
of withdrawal of oil shale lands In
Garfield county that will constitute
Naval Oil Shall Reserve No,a, Colo
RADIO No. 2. The land which is with
drawn from settlement, location, sale
or entry approximates $4,000 acres
and is included in portions of town
ships south, ranges 90, 95; township
6 south, ranges 90, "a, 95; and town.
ship south, ranges 95 and 90 w.
The land lies in the vicinity Of Rifle
and Grand Valley and contiguous to
the Naval Reserve No. /, and is to be
held for the use and benefit of the
United States in the development of
that reserve. In connection with the
Naval Reserve Mol it constitutes
sore of the. best oil shale areas in
the United States and will establish a
reserve fund of oil for the navy that
will supply 1t for an indefinite period
of time after the oil reservoirs are
depleted.
Not long ago homesteader met me
in Craig and after the. usual saluta-
tions he said: Say, Spencer, you
got my patent for me about. year
ago and now they are after me for
taxes. What 1 want to know is, will
Uncle Sam take that land back and
pay the taxes? If not, how am 60
ing to get rid of my white elephant" ?"
At the time, l didn't know how to
advise him, but the solution came In
the mail recently in the form of
letter from Mr.. X. in Denver, stating
that Mr.. Y. had held rattle and
raffled Off his homes,erd in Moffat
county. Mr.. x was the winner and
wrote to have it transferred to him..
This was an unpatented tract Of land
and the transaction, while hardly lie.
Ultimate. was unique as probably be-
ing the first instance of a person raf-
fling Off his unpatented homestead en-
try. All parties evidently thought
the rattle was all there was to 1t as
Mr.. Y. failed to give the successful
Mr.. X. his relinquishment.
The coming of the winter season
usually brings with 1t lull in certain
forms of work in the land Office.
This gives us more time for the an
swering Of general correspondence
and we ask that persons contemplate
Ing letters requesting information do
not put them of until next spring.
Just MS all should try to mail Christ
mas packages before the rush. 80 We
suggest that they conduct MS much
of their general correspondence with
the land office during our dull season.
Better Tor You and better for us.

The Hairy Ape To Be Read By
 MT. Szold

There will be a meeting of the read ing circle of the Little theater at o'clock Thursday afternoon at the audi torium on Highland avenue Mir. Der nard Szold will interpret Eugene O'Neilrs "The Hairy Ape" and mem bers will be given one admittance on each membership card.
 This reading circle was organized by Mrs. Vassar Allen, the president, for the purpose of offering the patrons of the Little theater an opportunity to study the new plays being produced in New York; plays for which the right of production cannot be secured at pres ent. The members are very grateful to Mrs. Allen for offering them this course of study and entertainment, the Bir- mingham Little theater being the first in the country to afford the members this pleasure in addition to the regular schedule of plays given during the season.
 Mrs. F. W. Finch is chairman of the committee in charge of arranging these readings. This is only one of the new features planned by Mrs. Allen. The ideal for which she constantly strives is to make the Birmingham Little thea ter stand for the very best and highest in all cultural attainment, and especial ly to afford a means of artistic devel- opment to the people of Birmingham and Alabama. To this end, also, a contest is now open to the writers of the state for one-act plays.
 "The Hairy Ape" is one of the fore most plays produced in New York, and the reading circle is fortunate in having an artist with the talent and brilliancy of Mir. Szold read it for them.

Another argument for better work
| ing conditions for miners strikes the
nation forceably in the entombment
of lat men in the Utah Fuel company
mine near Castle Gate, Utah.
The tragedy was the result of a
series of explosions. The number of
victims is not definitely known at this
writing. 1t may require weeks to
compile a complete list of the dead.
The exact cause of the explosion
| will probably remain a mystery; but
that is not an important question to
solve. The paramount question is how
| to avoid penning up scores of live men
| who have not been touched by mine
explosion. This, it appears, can be
done only by sinking another shaft
and thus opening a means of exit
when the main shaft is closed.
Why is this not done? Mine own
ers say the cost is too great. Their
answer is the same as that given a
few years ago by owners of large
buildings when fire escapes were first
ordered by the government. True, it
costs great deal to sink a mine
shaft and dig a tunnel to the main
entrance. But what is human life
worth? More than a hundred live
men were trapped behind the barrier
by the explosion.
What is the value of a hundred
lives? Jesus Christ asked: 'For
what shall it profit man if he shall
gain the whole world and lose his own
| life, or what shall a man give in ex-
change for his life?"
