TIE SCHOOL BOY MURDER.
Camping with nm Assns.in In Co'ornao-h
Mothers Prophetic Accusation

BOULDER, Colorado, July 31.-The trial
OF James W. Yankee for the murder OF Ira
Durrell, ended Yesterday morning In a verdict OF
guilty.. In less than an hour after Yankee had
been returned to Jail his dead body was found
suspended by red picture cord from his cell
door, The history OF this murder Is very pecu-
liar. Yankee and Durrel had been schoolfel-
lows In Missouri They came to Col
orado early In the spring OF 1874.
They made some money. and were
about TO return homo In the fail, when
Yankee prevailed on hs companion to accom-
pany him over tho Range to visit a brother in
Alma They left Georgetown on the morning
OF the l1th Of October. When last seen alive
the two companions were sitting at their g mp
Gre half way down the Range. Two daysafter a
negro found Durrelrs body near this point
with the thrort cut, an ugly cash on the cheek,
and bloody finger IN ,rks upon the face.
In the meantime Jim Yankee returned home
TO 70 to school agdin. He reached his home In
Missouri on Sunday morning, and as tho people
were coming from church, he was met by Dur
relPs mother who went straight up TO him
and said " Jim Yankee, you have murdered
my boy r. sure enough tidlngs came the fol-
lowing dav OF poor Durrelfs dead body having
been found. Yankee was brought back TO
Colorado. He stoutly assorted his Innocence.
The prosecution beat down every barrier OF de-
brought into strong relief the circumstance
that the track Of a run down boot near the
the body clearly corresDOnded with Yankees.
A verdict oil guilty was charged In the indict-
ment. The Jury also found that the murder
was done with preme citation and elaboration,
a necessary qualification for the innlction OF
the death penalty In Colorado. Yankee was
only eighteen years OF age.

removal to house of her own.
She invariably forgot to make the
bed until she went up stairs to retire !;
the lamps were never filed till the

salt for saleratus and tartar emetic for
salt; burnt the meat, forgot to sweeten
the sponge cak& and made hundred
other blunders that every inexperienced
housekeeper can imagine for herself.
A month. of this kind of existence
passed away, and Nellie broached q
plan to her husband. Horace was only
too delighted to consent. Their house
was shut up; the young man went to
boarding house and Nellie went to Aunt
Martha Chase, q widowed sister of her
father, who resided in 4 country town
some twenty miles away. - ''s - .
Aunt Martha was q lady more cele-
brated for the excellence Of her pies and
preserves than for the number OF her
fiounces, and under her tutelage Nellie
became, in time, what every woman
should be, without regard to her sta
tion, good housekeeper. And when
at the end Of three months she went
back to her own house, there were no
more salt puddings or burned steaks.
