Failure Of a Denver Liquor

Testimony Given at Chicago
Shows Mrs. Dunton Was
Murdered.

DENVER. Col, March 1.-the liquor
house of Jacob Boehm & Co., one of the
largest in the West, is in the hands of
the sheriff. 1t was closed and deputy
placed in charge at 1890 o'clock this
afternoon. Two hours later MI. Boehm,
the senior member of the firm, was
found dead in chair III a room at the
Windsor hotel. An empty bottle, which
had contained solution of prussic acid,
Fst0ld the story. The first attachment
which was filed, and on which the store
was closed, was on a suit brought by
the First National Bank of Denver for
Sos, 1852.
When the papers were handed to Mr..
Boehm he seemed to be expecting it,
and telephoned 10 his attorney. Earl b.
Coll. He fastened to meet him, and
together they went to the Windsor
house, where Mr.. BOehm registered and
was assigned to room, where he con-
suited with his attorney few moments
and then Mr.. Coll went to lunch. They
were 10 meet again in the same room,
but when Mr.. Coll returned he found
his client dead.

how much they have lost. All claims
thus far are local, and none of the for

POUNDED 10 DEATH.
DIR. Scudder's Hearing Begun at
Chicago.


3 CHICAGO, March 14.-The preliminary
..arraignment of DIR. Scudder Oh the
charge of murder took place this after
noon before Justice Brayton. The pris-
oner was brought into court supported
ON either side by policeman, and
seemed unable to move without assist
ance. He was ashy pale, his eyes were
closed, and he gave no Sign that he
realized the situation. He remained in
a seeming stupor throughout the pro-
yceedingS except when portion OF the
skull of the murdered woman was eX-
Aibited in evidence.
Two witnesses were examined, f. IL.
{ Dunton, the husband of the victim, and
conducted the autopsy. Mr.. Dunton
told of the prisoners supposed attempt
to poison him, the suspicious actions OF
DR.. Scudder the morning Of Mrs. Dun
toms death. and the endeavor of the
prisoner before her burial to take from
the house the box containing the will.
"A curious fact not heretofore brought
out was that the sleeves of MIR. Dunton's
night shirt were spotted with blood
after the discovery that his wife had
been injured. The testimony of DIR.
Palmer was in effect that Mrs. Dunton's
8 death, beyond all doubt, was from being
pounded upon the head. The eXamina-
ton will be resumed today.

The Line of Lakes.

The above name has been applied
to the Wisconsin Central lines on ac-
count of the large number of lakes
and summer resorts tributary to its
lines. Among some of the we'll
known summer resorts are Fox Lake,
I'll. ; Lake Villa, I'll. ; Waukesha, Muk
wonago, Cedar Lake, Neenah, Wau-
paca, Fiield, Butternut and Ashland,
Wis. These lakes abound in numer
u species Of fish, such as black bass,
rock bass, pickerel, pike, perch, musk
allonge, while sportsmen will find an
abundance OF game, such as ducks,
geese, quail, snipe, etc. In the grand
eur of her scenery, the charming
beauty OF her rustic Ian escapes, and
the rare perfection of her summer
climate, the state Of Wisconsin is ac-
knowledged to be without u peer in
the union. Her .'ame as a refreshing
retreat for the overheated, careworn
inhabitants OF the great cities durinI
the midsummer months, has extended
southwark as far as the Gulf Of Mexico
and eastward to the Atlantic.

The Ticket,

The Congressional convention which
met at Greeneville last Thursday did
not show that spirit Of reconciliation
which many OF the leaders on both
sides had hoped to see. From head to
tail OF the ticket only n Butler man
was named-J. @. A. Remine, for float
err. This was not what Mr. Taylor de-
sired, we understand. Both he and
Mr.. Anderson expressed a wish that a
fair divide be made, but they could
not control their friends who were in
the majority in the convt ntion. 1t
has always been Mr.. Taylor's misfor-
tune to have a lot of fool trends, who
when they get the reins in their hands,
want to run the machine over and
crush everybody who don't see just as
they d.. But the ticket has been
named aod there is no Disgusting the
fact that II weaker or more shaky one
has never been put out i'll the district,
and that it will be no easy matter TO
elect it. Taylor al raise but little en-
thusiasm among his own friends, who
are ma because he joined with Brown
low and Butler, and of course he can't
enthuse the Butler faction much, as
elector Collins will be a wet blanket to
the ticket. He is one of the best post
ed men in the party, but he cannot
enthuse it. West is "A blank-a perfect
failure. He can't make a ten minutes
speech to save his life, and has never
attempted acanvass. This is his third
nomination and he has never honored
the loyal people Of Johnson county
with II visit to this section. His moral
character, if we have been correctly
informed, is a reproach and disgrace
to the party at Nash lille. And Re-
mine-they gave US Remine as a har-
monizer. John is a good fellow, but
not very strong as a harmonizer or en-
thusor. Fellow Republicans, the edi-
tor OF this paper has nothing against
the ticket, but the above are plain, un-
vanished facts, and we are not afraid
to speak them. The ticket may posi-
bly, be elected. But Democratic
shrewdness may defeat us, as in 1873
There has not, in many years, been so
much apathy and dissatisfaction in the
party of this district as exists to-day.
