The neeen, Chiacse Rio, In Denver.

The Recent Chincse Riot In Denver.
The jury that was empanneled to hold
an inquest on the body OF Sing Lee, the
Chinaman who was killed during the
recent riot in Denver, returned the fol-
lowing verdict:
State OF Colorado, -.
County OF Arapahoe.
An inquisition holden in Denver.
Colorado, beginning November l ana
ending Novembr 10, a. ID. 1880 before
Thomas Linton, of said county,
and state aforesaid, on the body OF
Sing Lee, lying there dead, the jurors
whose names are hereto subscribed, on
their oaths do say that the said Sing
Lee came to his death ut the Office OF
DIR. o. G.. Cranston, in the Moffat Il
Kassler block in the city Of Denver, on
the 3lst day Of October, 1880, about
$3.50 p. m, from compression Of the
brain, caused by being beaten and
kicked by - Corrigan, Edward
Trondell, Fred Miller and - Krieger,
aided and abetted by other parties, To
the jury at present unknown, Mt the
corner of Nineteenth and Arapahoe
streets, and on Arapahoe street, be-
tween Eighteenth and Nineteenth
streets, in the city of Denver, county
and state aforesaid, about Z O'Clock p.
m. of said day. And we further find
that the said mob was but the out
growth Of n drunken attack by two or
three white men on some Chinese in the
rear of their quarters, between Six
teenth and Seventeenth streets, and
which the evidence shows could have
been suppressed by the regular police
force, had they fearlessly arrested the
ringleaders, but which, owing to the
disorganized condition of the police
force Of the city, and the incompetency
and insuficiency Of its government by
the proper authority, and the failure Of
the county authorities to render the
necessary aid and assistance required in
such emergencies, the mob assumed
such proportions as eliminated in the
destruction Of human life and the dis
grace of the city in not affording pro-
lection to life and property.
Witness the hands Of said jury, this
the 18th OF November, A. d. 1880.

BILLS ALLOWED,
MONUMENT AND MARBLE WORKS

Among the many old established business firms
of our city, that are annually increasing their
business, we are pleased to notice that of Mr.. ].
F. Bauhof, Oh East Guscarawas street, opposite
American Hotel. This establishment was started
in 1860 and through the energy and enterprise of
the proprietor and the general satisfaction given
as to the terms quality and artistic style Of work
turned out, orders came IN so rapidly as to neces
state an enlargement Of the workshop and the
employment of an extra number OF skilled work
men. Mr.. Bauhof is amply prepared to furnish
any style of marble or granite monuments, man.
tells, counter and table tops, &c. well finished
and upon short notice.
During the past year an increased amount OF
work has been finished, not only for this county,
but throughout the counties of Summit, Carroll
Columbiana, Portage and others, and the first
word Of dissatisfaction, either as to workmanship
or prices is yet to be heard AcSong the most ex
pensive and beautifully finished monuments sent
out from this establishment, this season, we may
mention the following: A fine Quincy granite
monument, most neatly finished for John Bord,
ner, well-known citizen Of this township; one
OF about the same style fer Fremont Meffert, at
LOulhNlllej uu6 uldEDe uOuuneut lOE JOuu
Boom, Canton; finely finished marble mOnu
ment for Mrs. Rhinehart, at Waynesburg; one OF
granite for Jacob Kettering, east Of Canton; one
Of same material for C. L. Reifsnyders lot In the
Canton Cemetery; another for Mrs Mentzer, Can
ton; a substantial and attractive BeTea stone
monum ent, in the Canton cemetery for H. l..
Vogelgesang; fine marble monument 10 feet
high, the top representing broken column, for
j, f. Reynolds daughter, Of this city.
Beside the above that are particularly worthy
Of mention, Mr Bauhof is now finishing most
exoellently designed granite monument for Lew.
is Miller, Esq which will be placed in position
In few weeks; large headstones Of Scotch gram
ite finished to perfection, to correspond with the
monument will soon be set up on the George
Cook lot, in the Canton cemetery (Lakewood)
For these stones Mr. Bauhof was obliged to send
direct to Scotland aud they are expected here in
few days.
Orders for headstones for graves in neighboriDg
counties are being filed as promptly as possible
and the fact that large force Of workmen are
kept busy the year round proves cOnclusively
that Mr.. Bauhoi's desire to please his patrons In
every particular is duly appreciated. He is pre-
pared to furnish any quality Of stone, finished in
any desirable style at prices to suit the purchas
er. We are pleased to note that his enterprise,
energy and fair dealing is being now worthily re.
paid by increasing patronage.

FEELS BAD.-rhe Repository man seems to feel
bad that the hanging posters for the Reunion
were printed at the Stark County DEMOCRAT
Office; and that gay and attractive bill 1t was,
and that we got our pay promptly therefor. Job
work is cash, and the treasury was then sup.
piled. We fear our amiable neighbor has not
Jared as well in some respects. Five thousand Of
the posters, in three colors were printed at this
office. To show our good will We did considera-
Bile printing without charge. 1t is also due to the
Democrats too that they did much to make the
Reunion a success. Our friends in Canton and
throughout the county contributed generously,
and should not receive abuse now from the Sax.
ton Mckinley family organ. What If contempti-
BILE scurVy politicians of the Gospel Of Hate
spewed out their mean venom on the great occa.
sion, let us pass the subject by and continue our
labors In the cause Of REUNION, and reconcilia.
ton. Peace and good will between all parts Of
the country is the object of the Democratic par.
ty We take no stock In the gospel Of hate-have
no sympathy with vltriol throwing knaves, We
want more perfect Union Justice re.establish'
ed and liberty secured,

THE CANTON REUNION.

The Reunion at Canton on last Wednesday
was one Of the largest ever held In the State,
The crowd present on that occasion has been es-

grounds was strictly immense. That no one
might suffer from thirst barrels Of ice water

and were kept filed during the day. Every pro.
vision was made Tor the comfort Of the large
crowd present, and Stark county placed feather

BURGLARPRooF SAFEs-In a recent vsit to
the Diebold Safe and Lock Works we were shown
two burglar proof safes, which had been unsuc-
cessfully operated upon By burglars and were re.
turned to the Works for repairs. The first one, a
small No, railroad safe, owned by ]. Hawkins 4
Sons who are the proprietors of country store,
near New Lisbon, Ohio, had the outer door bro.
ken off and the dial of the combination and the
handle Of the burglar proof box badly battered.
An entrance, however, was not effected, and $500,
which the safe contained, were recently taken
out by Mr. Kinks, Of the Diebold Company, aud
handed over to the proprietor. The second safe
is one owned by Putnam g. Johnson millers, Of
Wilmot, which was partly broken into on Reun.
ion day, As In the former case entrance was
gained by breaking off the outer door, but the
strong box resisted their efforts, and $500, which
1t contained and $500 Government bond in a
paper drawer remained unmolested. The work
in both cases was unmstakably that Of the same
gang, and gave evidence that the burglars were
not experts. The same firm have replaced the
