Weather Prophets The department of interior in a bulletin just issued calls attention to the weather prophecies made by the Mesa Verde Indians of Colorado who last fall foretold our wet summer and now say we shall have a cold winter. The statement follows: The season so far verifies the weather predic

tions of the Indians Who occasionally "visit the Mesa Verde National Park in southwestern Coldrado fnr trading nUrboseS. but who never stay an

hour longer than is necessary because of their dread of the "little people" whom they be

lieve still inhabit, in spirit form, the prehistoric cliff dwellings that have made the Mancos Valley famous the world over. Last fall the Mesa Verde prairie dogs deserted their villages for new ones and the Indians have been shaking their heads

over it all winter. "Rain, much rain," they say; "rain all summer." So far they seem to have predicted right. And now they are again shaking their heads. "Cold, much cold," they say; "bad winter coming." Arid why? Because this summer game has been unusually plentiful on the Mesa Verde. Deer are more frequently seen than for years. Rabbits and hares are so numerous one can scarcely , go about without Beeing them in large numbers. Coyotes and mountain lions are also unusually plentiful, which may be explained by the abundance of the small game on which they live.

these men to volunteer in the army fight for na

mines to produce coal for the factories turning out munitions of war, she owes it to these labor

ers to give them a country worth fighting for, a country worth toiling for.

Coal Strike in England One of the gravest internal problems which England has had to face is the coal strike. Miners in Wales have quit work, demanding better work

ing conditions. The shortage of the coal supply means that the munition supply factories of

Taking a Defeat' , It is a bitter pill for a defeated man to take the verdict with a smile. Recently the Street car company and its employes in Cnicagd became involved In a strike. Arbitrattdn was f dreed upon

both sides by a militant mayor. Both agreed to abide by the Verdict. 5 The Verdict was handed

down by the arbitration board last Week and the strikers received what they wanted-substahtial increase in wages. The president of the street car company, of course, did not feel elated over the return, but he kept his chagrin cloaked, and in a message tp the carmen congratulated them on their victory and asked them to show their appreciation by giving the public better service and by helping the company solve the transportation problems of the city.

DENVER MAKES MOVE FOR NEW WEST POINT

DENVER, July 19.-Following exPresident Taft's demand for a new "West Point" t6 be located somewhere in the Weet. Denver has started a

movement to demand that the second United States military academy, if such be established, be located at Fort Logan. The Federal government owns the land on which Fort Logan stands and this post Is close to the fine manoeuvre grounds at Fort Russell, near Cheyenne. The climate is ideal all the year round. Trunk lines of several railroads pass near Fort Logan eo that a moment's notice officers from the 6chool could be rushed east to the big military post of Fort Leavenworth and . to the Atlantic coast, or south to the Mexican be der, or west to the Pacific coast. It is urged here that no new buiidIngs would be necessary at Fort Logan, as the present structures would be fully sufficient.

Supt. Shumaker Reaffirms Allegiance of Organization to Non-Partisan Methods of Activity in Indiana. INDIANAPOLIS. July 19 The 'Indiana Anti-Saloon League, through its state superintendent, Rev. E. S. Shumaker, today issued a statement to the newspapers of the state re-affirming its allegiance to the non-partisan methods of activity which have characterized Jts work in the past. At the recent annual convention of the National Anti-Saloon League at Atlantic City, N. J., the following resolution was unanimously" adopted: "After twenty years or practical demonstration of the value of nonpartisan activity in the warfare

against the liquor traffic, with special emphasis at this time we again declare for the preservation of the non-parti san or omni-partisan character of the Anti-Saloon League movement. We protest against every effort to use the rapidly growing temperance sentiment of the nation for the furthering of political ambitions or political ends. The Anti-Saloon League is entrusted with a sacred duty. That duty must be performed without complications in partisan politics and without swerving from the straight path which leads to the overthrow of the liquor traffic. From this great task the Anti-Saloon League can not turn aside to support friends or oppose enemies except insofar as that support of friends or that

opposition to enemies may help to hasten the final overthrow of this traffic-Watches Candidates. The Indiana league announces that it will wage its campaign next year in full harmony with thia resolution. Superintendent Shumaker says: "the league sincerely hopes that no. political party will put a prohibition plank in its platform next year. The league does hope, on the other hand, that the various parties will nominate id the primaries candidates for congress, the United States senate, the state legislature and for governor men who are personally committed to prohibition of the liquor traffic. It Is on this exact ground, that the league will wage is whole fight next' year. The whole influence of the state organization will be exerted in the spring primary for the nomination of men favorable to the prohibition issue. In the election which follows, the league will know no political lines. Candidates will be supported and opposed without reference to party affiliations. The deciding consideration will be the attitude of the candidate on the due question of statewide statutory prohibition. "In order that the league may act wisely and justly in Its attitude toward the various candidates? it will, at the. proper time, respectfully interrogate candidates for the offices above named oh the question of their personal attitude toward the prohibition issue. It is hot the intention of the league to heckle of pester candidates, but as a matter of justice it will seek first-hand and authoritative infomration of the question. In adopting this policy the league feels that it is not imposing upon candidates or placing them under any embarrassment whatever. Rather it believes that by giving the candidate an opportunity to be

fully and fairly understood on this question, it is dding them a decided

service. - The league contends that no fair man would wish to go through a campaign at this time without being clearly and fully understood by the people as to his position on this great

question that is closer to the hearts

of thousands of the best citizens of

this state than any other issue that

may arise." Avoid Partisanship.

League leaders are careful to have it understood that they will hot as

sume an arrogant or dictatorial atti

tude in this matter. They will not insist necessarily upon a categorical answer to any question that may be propounded. What they do seek, in any way that candidates may see fit to give it. is a positive assurance that if elected they will stand squarely

with the vast majority of the voters

of Indiana that demand the prohlbi

tion or tne liquor traffic.

League leaders are now busy per

tecung plans ror tne greatest cam

paign ever waged in the state. Local organizations will be perfected in every county in the state through which dry sentiment may be crystalized in the primary in the nomination of acceptable candidates. The fight throughout, both in the primary and in the election, will be waged on candidates entirely. Partisanship will be carefully avoided throughout.

Notes on Magazines - - -- -

A new serial, "Dear Enemy," is announced for the Century to begin in the August number. It Is by Jean Webster, who captured the country twice with "Daddy Long Legs," once as a novel and again as a play; and though it is not a sequel its heroine was one of the characters in "baddy Long Legs." The story is about an orphaned orphan asylum, one hundred and thirteen young residents, a crusty SCotch sUrgebn (fir from being old himself) and Sally McBride. An interesting series of reminiscences announced for publication in the Century, the first installment to appear ia August, is that of the Princess Lazarovich-HrfeDeli&hovlch, wife of the head of the ancient dynastic house of Serbia. Born Eleanor CalhoAin of California, a grandniece of John C. Calhoun, the statesman, she

went to London as a young girl fain

of ambition as ah actress. There she met with great success, both social and artistic. She was fof & time Forbes-Rdbertson's ieady lady, Slid later she was regularly engaged by the Theatre Francaise in Paris to play leading roles in the classical drama. " Out of 601 short stories published

last year by eight of the leading magazines, three of the best five, according to Edward J. O'Brien, of the Boston Transcript, were published in Scribner's. The twenty-sixth August fiction number of this magazine contains a very notable group of stories widely varied ia character and in keeping with the Scribner standards. , The fiction number, August Scribner, has an innovation in the way of a complete novelette. It is by Kate Douglas Wiggin, author of "Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm" and other popular successes. It is about a very clever and charming young American girl, who goes abroad to study music. Miss Thomasina Tucker, known td her friends as Tommy had some amusing experiences and, of course, falls in love. The love story is a pretty one, and the lover -a very nice and lonely American. Stephen Phillips, the English poet and dramatist, contributes his first prose play ot the August fiction number of Scribner's. It tells the story of a famous Italian painter and his Seeking for the ideal human types for the two principal figures of his great work. The scenes are in the Milan Cathedral and a Naples prison.
