A Horrible

DENVER, Oct. 15.-Whisky and jeal,
ousy were the cause of an awful tragedy
early this morning. The notorious Jim
Connors and Mike Ryan we're drinking in
a saloon after midnight and Connors be-
ing leased by his friends that his mistress,
a Mrs. Dalcoff, had deserted him for @.
j. Finnicum, became so enraged hat he
took Ryan and going to Mrs. Dalcoff 8
room. broke open tho door and found her
with Fnnicum. Finnicum was ordered
to dress, after which he was knocked
down, bound and gagged, hen carried to
a window and thrown into an alley three
stories below.
His Jaw was broken, both eyes knocked
out and his skull laid open until the brain
was exposed. He died in a short time.
Conner and Ryan we're arrested. The
prominence of the offenders made the
case unusually interesting. Ryan until
lately was one of the officers In the fire
department but is now under bond for
drugging and robbing a man. Connors
was a first lieutenant of police but is now
under bonds for attempting to hold up
and rob a Rio Grande express train three
years ago.

WYLIE WELLS OS DlOOu, anu
very appropriately asked the kind offices
Of a Kentucky gentleman of proved
bravery. BY hin he sent this note:
Your conduct in my domestic matters is be-
yond compromise, and l take this method Of
advising you that your treatment Of me and
my child has been most vtllainous, cowardly,
unmanly. l denounce you as a coward, a cur
and a renegade, and have taken the liberty to
instruct my friend, who bears this note, to
i~sfactory to me as q man and his friend.
Yours, etc., NAPOLEON WELLS
The Kentuckian is brave, but he is not
rash. He learned that carrying a challenge
is an offense punishable by state prison in
Ohio, so instead of delivering 1t he had it
published in The Enquirer. When he called
on Mr.. Nichols that gentleman was fianked
by two lawyers and declared his innocence.
So Mrs. Wells was called on to show cause,
etc.
1t appears that last December Mr.. and
Mrs. Wells got a divorce by consent, Judge
Kumler ruling that she should have their
ive-year-old boy, Wylie Wells, eight
months in the year and the father have
him four. The father went to San Fran
cisco, and when he returned at the end of
eight months, behold Mrs. Wells had
quietly gone before Judge Maxwell and
got the decree altered SO as to give her en-
tire control of the boy. And Wells says
that Mr.. Nichols is responsible.
Nevertheless Mr.. Wells will not be al
lowed to shed the Nichols blood In Ohio,
and On the advice of his attorneys he has
turned to the law to get the original de-
cree restored. The boy is described AZ q
beauty. Mrs. Wells at present resides
with her mother. She is a member Of the
same church as Mr.. Nichols, who is a well

sum Of money to locate Woosley and has
just found him in Benton, Ark. He says

The people are very industrious. One can
see brick residences going up on every
hand, the majority of which are two
stories. Although the people are in debt
to the railroad company for their lands,
yet the work of thrift and industry is to
be seen on every hand.
Here in Snowflake resides the president

bearing, sublime example, which is ex-
allied and unselhsh, win for him universal
admiration. Bishop John Hunt, of this
ward, we find healthful, vigorous and am
bilious, and enjoying splendid reputation.
Arizona has many natural advant-
ages, but until recently it was not known
that mineral and coal deposits were among
her numerous resources.
Large and extensive coal beds have been
discovered near this place blacksmith
who followed his trade twelve years in
Utah says that the coal here is far superior
to any he used in Utah.
The future is certainly full of bright
promise for this part of Arizona.

sesslng location which will, in my hum
bic opinion, yet become great commercial
centre, and wealthy through her numerous
mineral deposits that now lie dormant.

white pearl half an inch wide and varies
in length from two inches to four inches
The pearl is the bait; 1t slightly resembles
small fish on which the bonito and her.
ring feed.
The natives have some very super
stitious beliefs regarding the catching of
fish. The hook must be tied so many
different ways and wrapped a NUMBER of

the oldest of all is that when they don't

A VERY KIND WHITE MAN FRIEND OF OURS,
the history of whose life would make an
interesting volume, tells Us of how he tried
TO teach the natives, a number of years
ago, that it made no difference how hooks
were tied to the pearl, as the fish could not
count or what shape the canoe was made,
so long as it would float. He made him a
fishing canoe and tied his own hooks and
after much persuading, got his brother-in-
law to go with his son. They both told
him, however, as all the natives in his vii
lage had done, that his canoe would never
catch bonito.
The boys returned in the morning and
surprised the natives with three nice fish
They contended, however, that it was an
accident and that the atva (the lucky ten
his boat would never bring in. The next
flshlng brought in even more than ten, but
the natives, instead of believing the true
facts, accused Mr.. B. of having one par
ticular way of his own, and as he could no,
tell them just how his canoe and hooks
were made, they threatened to break the
canoe in pieces. EBAY WOULD.
