DIES ON THE TRAIN.
Rev. DR.. MilIigan, of Pittsburg, Dies
Near Rock Creek.
The Body Brought to This City and
Emhalmed.
The Remains Will be Shipped East
for Burial.

The east Lound train yesterday morning
contained the remains Of Rev. DIR. A. NJ.
Milligan, of Pittsburg, who died ON the
train near Rock Greek. Although he
had been in feeble health for some time
past, caused by over forty years continual
service in the ministry, death was not ex-
pected.
The deceased and his wife had been in
Oakland, Cal, for the past six months as
the guests of the Rev. n. r. johnson,
and although improving for a time, his
health began to rapidly fail, and knowing
that he had but a short time to live, he
desired to return to his home to die
among his W people, associates and
friends.
On Tuesday morning the party left
Oakland bound for P~ittsburg, and little
did they think her of the coming mes
senger which was to terminate an honor
able and useful life of one that had la
bored for years in securing for others
peace, joy and happiness.
As it was necessary at Ogden to trans
fer DR.. Milligan to another sleeper, he
somewhat exerted himself, and from hat
time began to grow weaker and weaker
until death finally overlook him, in the
sleeping car on Thursday evening.
The remains were brought to this city,
and were taken at once to Warren's I'M
dertaking establishment, where they were
embalmed, and will be shipped to Pitts
burg by way of Denver, over the Kansas
Pacific railroad.
The deceased, for twenty years past, has
been the pastor Of the First Reformed
Presbyterian church of Pittsburg, and is
spoken of by all who knew him as a man
Of great ability, an eloquent preacher and
a good and noble man. The deceased had
been in the ministry for the past forty
years, and at the time of his death was in
his esd year.
In response to a telegram, Rev. J.. A.
T. Milligan, a brother of the deceased,
arrived on last evenings train, and ii
company with Mrs. Milligan and. Rev.
Mr.. johnson, is stopping at the Inter
Ocean. The party will resume theil
journey this morning, i9 sadness, to the
former home of the deceased, where the
body will be inferred with appropriate
ceremonies.

To be Seen for the Last Time To-day at
Warren's.

~
Mr.. Frank b. Hine arrived in the city
yesterday from New York and has opened
an art emporium in the F. L. Warren
mercantile establishment. To say that
the collection is handsome, would not
do the thing half justice, for it is consid-
cred one of the finest collections of the
kind ever seen in this country. Those
persons who have been fortunate enough
to see all the collections of this character,
pronounce this far superior to any of
them.
The collection consists of draperies,
pictures, curtains, laces, screens, bed
spreads and many other beautiful and
choice selections. These were all worked

nestle sewing machine, a number of
which are on exhibition at the emporium.

LAST EVENINGS AMUSEMENT.
"The World" at the Opera House a DE.
cIded success.

cided success.
Alarge audience assembled at the opera
house last evening to witness the product
ion (for the first time in this city, Of that
well known drama, The World. The
play was all that had been promised by
the management, and perhaps more, and
all present united in saying that the act
ing was perfect, the scenery fine, and the
tableaux magnificent.
Mr.. j. u. Little, in the character of
Harry Elliston," fully sustained the
reputation he has acquired in this charac-
ter. The support, as a whole, was except
ionally good, and each acted his part well.
The play proceeded like clockwork, and
every detail was carried GU
The following tableaux were presented
in connection with the play:
The wharf and shipping. Homeward
bound.
The ship at sea. Villainy and wreck.
Rush for safety.
The sinking ship. The raft. Water,
water all around, yet not one drop to
drink. Saved from the wreck-the most
beautiful effect ever produced on any
stage.
The cottage home. The recognition. A
brothers love.
The old chateau.
Mountain pass.
Great revolving scene and magnificent
moonlight panorama, with the exQui-
sitely beautiful effects. 'The moon upon
the lake"
Room in hotel. Settling accounts. The
wages of sin are death.
These were really beautiful and impress
i've, and were considered as fine as any
that have ever been given in the opera
house.
The play is a strong one throughout, the
plot being excellent, and in addition to the
excellent rendition of the different parts
those present were highly entertained
throughout the entire performance.
Thr World is considered one Of the
best attractions that has appeared in the
opera house of this city, and this speaks
highly of the play without further COM
ment.

CHARGED WITH FRAUD.
Ex-COunty Clerk Hughes, of Raw
Inns, Arrested.
Charged With Having Defrauded
Carbon County.
Dispatch to rnn LrAprn.

special Dispatch to THE LEADER.
RAwLINs, May S.-The Tribune issued
an extra tonight announcing that D. P.
Hughes, ~ex-eounty clerk, was arrested in
Denver this afternoon by Detective Dave
Cook under instructions from Sheriff
Rankin, of this city. Hughes is charged
with having defrauded the county of a
considerable sum of money, and the au-
thorities claim that proof enough as to his
crimes is now in their hands to send him
to the pe%nitentiary. Mr.. Hughes left
Rawiins about five weeks ago
after overdrawing his bank ac-
count and borrowing considerable
money from friends, and after reaching
Omaha wrote to his wife, saying that he
had left her for good, and that she would
never see or hear of him again. Certain
things connected with the manner of
his departure aroused suspicion, and an
investigation was begun which at once
brought to light numerous irregularities.
On these the arrest was made, and it is
predicted that a close inspection of the
records of his Office during the two terms
he held the position Of county clerk will
reveal crimes of considerable magnitude.
Sheriff Rankin left for Denver tonight
and will bring Hughes back for trial at
the approaching term of district court.
