Mr.. D. +. McClatchy has fine COW, with
calf ten days old. They were pastured
in the college grounds, where stands the
two story brick college building. During
Sunday the COW was missed from the pas
ture and thorough search was made in
the pasture, in the surrounding woods and
in town to find her, but without avail. The
fact that the calf was there, left tie i'm
preston that the cow had been stolen.
Mr.. McClatchy went to Atlanta and left a
description of the COW with the police. He
returned home, and on Monday morning,
the colored man found the COW in the sec.
ond story of the college building. She had
climbed long winding flight OF steps
and was domiciled in the building and
seemed perfectly contented with her lot, as
there was plenty of hay stored in the build
ing. The colored man thinking she had
graduated" managed to get her down the
stairsteps of the college and drove her
home. She no doubt will refuse to asso-
ciate with other cows now, and will toss
her head with good deal of selfimpor
tance-because she has been to college

Exciting Times at n Lecture,

CHICAGO, Feb. 29.-Rev. DR.. John
d. Fulton's lecture tonight at the First
Methodist church was largely attended.
After calling the Roman Catholics pagans
he said that families were robbed to recruit
for the seraglios of the holy father. Fulton
declared that a young man had told him
| that his sister entered a convent, and for
six years was subjected to the will of the
priests, and during the time child had
been born TO her and-"That's lie, ""Ney-
er, never" False, false" rang out from
| all parts OF the church. Kisses and shouts
of approval and dissent followed. and
roar like set-to in q close ward caucus
swept over the room. Many ladies' left.
I'VE should do for women what Germany
has" he continued. The shouts became
so angry that whole pews were quickly
emptied of ladies. DR.. Fulton said: Don't
leave, ladies'" The Kisses, applause and
shouts kept growing louder. The ladies
tiocked towards the doors, and the speaker,
though he had announced that song
would conclude the exercises, very pru-
IDENTIFY closed with the benediction. No
sooner had the word amen escaped his lips
than John II. Harnett, young man living
at 1875 Washington boulevard, stepped upon
the pulpit and in an inquirinS tone asked:
"Will you allow me but five minutes to
answer his remarks? He is ignorant and
misrepvesents."
The crowd closed rsenacingly around the
young speaker whose name had not ap-
reared in the bills and he was soon crowd
ed of the pulpit amid the most intense ex-
element. Not until the gas was turned off
did the disputants unlock horns and dis
perse. DR.. Fulton is resorting to queer de-
vices to secure attention. To-day scores of
men were sent through the streets wearing
huge placarded caps "Why Priests Shosld
Wed" as advertisements of his lecture.

RUINED and buried cities are now

SHOT IN SELF-DEFENSE.

Special to the Denver Republican.

Special to the Denver Republican.
LAS ASntAs. Colo, Feb. 29.-M. F.
Riley, the contractor for the court house
which is being built here, was shot and
killed at the Leland House in this city by
Fred A. Hale, the architect of Denver. The
facts are these: For some time the feeling
among our people has been that Contractor
Riley was preparing TO put in unsuitable
brick In the erection of the courthouse, and
In order 10 satisfy themselves the Board O.
County Commissioners sent to Mr. Hale to
come RS an expert to examine the brick and
make n report on the character and quality
OF the brick.
| Mr.. Hale arrived here this morning and
In company with the commissioners exam
ined the brick and made a written report at
the morning session OF the beard. Riley
and several others were present and during
the reading of Architect Hale's report Riley
interrupted and Mr. Hale quickly told Riley
that he was here by invitation of the COM
| missioners and had TO do only with them,
/ whereupon Riley, who, by the way, is a
large and powerful man, struck Mr.. Hale
three or four times before those present
could interfere. Several persons caught
| used the most abusive language. Riley
also struck al Mr.. q. NJ. Hall, the County
Clerk, because he CHalD attempted 10 quiet
him.
This all took place in the building which
IS now occupied as the court house. Many
| advised Mr.. Hale 10 have Riley arrested
but he said If he could avoid any further
| trouble with Riley he would let the matter
drop. Riley was let out of the building,
but those who knew him did not believe
but what he would assault Mr.. Hale at the
first opportunity, and he Twas advised by
several to keep sharp outlook for his an
tagonist. Riley had been drinking and
when under its effects he was exceedingly
quarreisome and abusive.
AT noon Mr.. Hale needed the advice of
his friends and secured a revolver and
went to his hotel for dinner. When
he arrived at the hotel he was ad-
vised that Riley was In the dining
room, and il was suggested TO Mr..
Hale to wait for his dinner until Riley had
eft. He consented and took seat in the
flee and began reading q paper. When
Riley came out OF the dining room he saw
Mr.. Hale and rushed toward him saying:
Ou u-S-ol u, L IL aNttHu 70 YOU,
and he struck Mr.. Hale, who was sitting,
knocking him OF his chair into corner OF
the room.
He struck him upon the head four .or five
times while he was down, when Mr.. Hale
drew his revolver and fred at his antayo-
mist some three shots. Riley walked out
of the hotel office on the platform in front
OF the hotel and fell dead.
Justice Fry summoned Coroner's jury
and after hearing ail tho evidence in the
case, they rendered verdict that Mr.. Hale
acted entirely In seli-defense in the whole
matter and that no Twas entirely justified
In killing his antagonist
Mr., Hale regrets exceedingly the necessity
of beiog thus forced to defend himself, but
no man who hss any respect for himself
could have done less In defense ofhis man.
