GEORGE GOULD'S ELKS.
The Wizards Son Is Sending
Five Yearlings to His Pri-
vate Park.

Five year!ing elks were passengers
on the Missouri Pacific train which left
the city last night for St. Louis at $50
o'clock, q half hour behind lis usual
time. They are the property Of Geo.
Gould and are enroute from Rifle
creek, Colorado, to private park be-
longing to Mr.. Gould in New York.
These elks travel in style in Burton
perfection horse car, a perfect stable
on wheels. Louis Hague, who has
them in charge, pays them more at
tention than the average traveller re
ceives while on a journey. So far they
have stood their long ride remarkably
we'll.
The five elks travel in two compart-
ments, two in one and three in the
other. They are given three meals
regularly every day and fresh bed of
straw is made up for them every night.
Above the compartments are water
tanks. filled once day, and by pipe
and faucet, the animal are regularly
gwen a proper supply of water after
each meals
When Keeper Htgue entered the
car with his lantern last night to pay
his last attentions to the animals prior
to starting for St. Louis one Of the
eIks put out its head very bravely to
him through the bars while be petted
it. BILLY wants to get his name in
the paper" laughed Hague. "The
animals are very tame. They were
captured on Bear river, Colorado,
when very young. An elk grows wild
and vicious as it grows older. Never.
,heless / owned q team of elks which
l drove in harness and which are now
in the possession of a Pueblo man,
who sometimes drives them hitched to
a sleigh. They would never stand
driving in warm weather"
While the keeper wss talking he
was handed a lengthy telegram in.
structing him regarding the elks.
Among other things he was told to
stop over at ST.. Louis one day and to
have tie elks taken from the train to
rest them from the long journey
which began My %.

where, it is sid. he will remain for a
. few days before starting for the

WELSH DIVORCED.
The End of q Sensational and
Very Salaci0us Case.

By the concurrent of the Kansas
City court of appeals. handed down
yesterday, Ira Welsh is granted de-
cree divorcing him from Ida Welsh
and thus terminating the most sersa-
tional and nauseating divorce case
ever tried in this county.
Some two years ago Ira Welsh
brought suit in the circuit court If
this county king a divorce from his
wife Ida and charging her with inf.
deity. Mrs. Welsh shortly filed her
answer. Ii proved highly sensational.
She admitted her inf ielity and gen.
eral misconduct, but charged that her
husband was rot only fully aware OF
all the CT circumstances but actually cor
sented thereto and prUtited largely by
her various liasons. At the trial she
testified that through her husband e
formed the acquaintance of Ike Wot-
rell. who was nigh up IN The employ
of the Simmons Hardware company
of St. Louis and that together r,,ey
proceedt d to work Worreil to such
an extent that he finally lost ali his
money and his position.
Then, she testified, they "shooA "
Worrell and she tried her blan !isii-
ments upon Thomas e. Burch
western marager for the Phoenix In
surance company of Chicago and ", h
such success, as she claimed, that her
husband was shortly employed as an
adjuster for the insurance company at
fat salary. As an instsnce OF the
way in which Burch was duped. she
testified that she and her husband had
procured a good looking blue ey d
baby in St. Louis and attempted to
palm it OF on Burch as his chl.h.
she claimed that Burch then emp oyt d
Pinkerton detectives to shadow her
and by a system # prosecutions drive
her out of Chicago She brought suit
against the Pinkertons in St. Louis,
claiming s25, 900 damages. Finally,
she asserted, growing tired of Blu ch
and weary of selling herself for the
profit of her husband. she abandoned
the whole outfit.
The trial OF the case before JUG,
Slower attracted large crowds daily
to the court room and after a mist
bitter contest, occupying an entire
week, the court declined to grant
WEIGH a divorce. He carried his
case to the court ofappeals with the
result announced above. In arriv-
ing at this decision the court declined
to place any faith in the testimony of
Mrs. Welch, on the ground that she
had confessed her own infidelity and,
as shown by the transcript of the
case, had contradicted her own state
ments in a number OF instances. Il

THE TEXAS MURDERS.
The Denfs0n Papers Don't Think
Tom Boswell is the Nan.

The Denison papers evidently do
OF attach much importance to the
srrest of Tom Boswell in connec ion
with the murders It that place. The
Gszetteer says: at has been nearly
two weeks since the night of horrors,
and under ordinary circumstances the
public mind would have about return.
ed to it normal condition; yet in this
city there is trepidation, a fear, a
want of confidence in the public safety
that is apparent to the mos, casual OBJ
server. The first week came and
went with utter suspense so far a. any
clue being obtained as TO the guilty
party or parties, AMI it seems now
that the second week is to pass with
the same RESULTS. Theories almost
without ending have been advanced,
and wild rumors and stories without
the slightest foundation 10 fact have
fl ,ated about like down in a summer
breeze. 1t is needless to state that
all this speculation is without result,
except it be to Intensity fear on the
part IF the ladies and children.
Early in the week the name of Tom
Boswell, the young gentleman who
has been with the Mccarthy har lware
house four or more years, was whis-
pered about in connection with the
murder of Miss T,en Hawley. That
Tom was gone no one could deny, but
many of his friends old and do yet
stoutly deny that there was any coz
nection Whatever in his leaving as he
did and the murder of the young lady.
For him to get out of the city the
morning after the tragedies casts a |
deeper shadow; yet the fact of his
going on the morning he did is not
within itself evidence to sustain the |
charge.
DR.. Haynes and Mr.. and Mrs.
Farmer, together with their grand !
daughter, left Tuesday for San An
tonic to be absent several weeks. 1t
may be that they wi visit Mexico
before their return. With reference
TO the killing of Mrs. Haynes and the
shooting Of the girls at the bagnios
he Denison public and the officers
have settled down to we'll grounded
theory, and from a chain Of circum-
stantiai evidence the shootings are /
pretty well accounted for, aud now
the future is the future, and no man
knows what is to be the results.
A SATURDAY DISPATCH
states that Boswell arrived in DEM
son in charge of the sheriff. He was
at once taken into court, hut the muir.
der charge was not entertained, and
the court put Boswell under bond to
the amount of 5000, with Owen Nc
Carly, Boswelps late employer. as
The charge made to-day
against Boswell was for issuing checks
On bank where he had overdrawn
his accounts. ALI the checks have
since been taken up and it is now
thought that the young man will be
cleared of the charge OF fraud. While
Boswell left Denison at daylight on
the morning of the murders, and I'M
der suspicious circumstances his
friends in Denison did not believe
him guilty of any connection with the
tragedies. This leaves the mystery
no nearer q solution than it was a
week sgo.

"a mistake that is often made
said a gentleman yester az to tn.
Gossiper lie 10 the popular phrase,
Everything is lovely and the goose

wrong. 1t should read, Every
thing is lovely and the goose honks
high. This saying originated away
up in the northern states, where in
rainy. foggy, or stormy weather it is
a we'll known fact that the gesse fly
low-skimming along over the house
tops. In fine and pleasant weather
you will remember that they fly in
long strings 50 high in the heavens
that their peculiar cry, Honk. hopk,
crn be scarcely heard on the earth be-
low, hence the old saying that every
thing is lovely and the goose honks
high, and not hangs high, which is
a most nonsenslcal perversion of the
original saying"

earns but S. week and regularly
lays aside a quarter of a dollar, hardly
knows he lie saving, so far IS his actual
necessary expenses are concerned. II
is surprising how much can be saved
by people who earn but moderate

prive themselves Of the usual neces
