GAVE UP THE STRUGGLE
DR.. GRAVES COMMITS SUICIDE
IN HIS PRISON CELL.
Claims He Was Hounded to Death and
Had no Chance for u Fair Triai-Thus
Ends the Great Barnaby Murder Mys.
tery-BItterly Attacks His Prosecutors.

DENVER, Col, Sept. 5.-Dr. T.
Thatcher Graves, the convicted pois-
oner of Mrs. Josephine Barnaby, COM
mitted suicide in his cell at the county
Jail Saturday night, presumably by
taking poison. He was found stiff
and cold in death Sunday morning by
the 'trusty" who has been caring for
him. On his person was found the
following letter:
To the Coroner of Denver:
DENVER, Col Aug. Dear Sir: Please do
not hold an autopsy on my remains. Inc
cause OF death may be rendered as follows:
"Died from persecution Worn out. Ex-
hausted." Yours respectfully;
T. THATCHER GRAVES, M D.
Morphine is believed to be the means
by which the doctor committed suicide.
The corpse was quite cold when
found. No direct evidence of suicide
the story. There were also letters to
Mrs. Graves, wife of the doctor; to
Jailer Crews and an address to the
public. That the prisoner had long
contemplated taking his own life is
evident from the date of the letter,
August Q, last.
Jailer Crews, in an interview, indig-
nantly denies that Graves committed
of broken heart, and to use the jail
ers words. "was murdered by the
attorneys for the state, who have har-
rassed the old man to death"
Although the letter to Mrs. Graves
has not been given to the public its
contents are known. In it the doctor
said that the new trial would con-
sumo the little money he had, and
probably without any good result to
him. He therefore decided to end his
life and leave his wife and old mother
what he was possessed of in order
that they might live in comfort
In long address to the public he
bitterly attacks District Attorney
Stevens, who he claims secured his
conviction by the use of money, polit-
ical influence and other questionable
practices in order to advance his own
personal and political interests, and
closes by declaring on his Masonic
oath that he was in no way respon.
sible for the death of Mrs. Barnaby.

The Frisco xpress Car Dynamited Near
Pacific. Mo.
ST. LOUIS, Mo, Sept G.-The Frisco
railway was the victim of another
hold-up last night.
Express train No. l on the Frisco

light few miles east of Pacific, W hich
is about forty miles west of st. Louis.
The train came to u standstill and two
rlen held the engine crew at bay
while third went to the express car
and demanded admittance. The mes
senger refused to open the door. The
| command then came from one of the
| engine guards to blow her open.
This command was almost instantly
| followed by u deafening report and
the woodwork of the car was wrecked
Then the three highwaymen joined
| forces and tried to enter, the car. but
were impeded by the wreck
At this juncturc the conductor and a
brakeman rushed up to the robbers
with pistols drawn and commanded
| them to surrender. The robbers an
swered with poorly directed fusilade
| which the two trainmen gave back
with interest.
/ Such unexpected resistance un'
nerved the robbers, and two of them
took to their heels. The third was
overpowered and made a prisoner. Sc
far as known no one was hurt
| When the train pulled into Pacific
station the express car presented q
sorry sight Dynamite had torn the
side of the car. The prisoner was
| placed under guard at the station and
the train proceeded. Excited villagers

Desperate Battle Between n MarshaI'i
Posse and Territory Dandits.

Desperate Battle Between Marshals
Posse and Territory Bandits.
OKLAHOMA CITY, Ok, Sept 6.-Word
has been received here of a desperate
battle between Deputy United States
Marshal o. S. Harris posse and two
desperadoes called Three Fingered
Jack" and Tecumseh, negro, near
Keouk Falls, on the border
of Oklahoma. When they
were informed, Three Fingered
Jack" and Tecumseh would
be at a top dance" in that neighbor-
hood that night with a quantity of
whisky, Harris and his posse laid in
wait for them and surrounded them
in the road. The desperadoes drew
revolvers in each hand and rode
through the guard in front of them,
keeping up constant fire. They
fred four shots before the posse
opened on them. Tecumsehs horse
was killed and Jacks wounded, but
both escaped.
Harris had five men in his party and
they were all on foot and were unable
to follow the desperadoes. Later
news has reached here that Tecumseh
was shot through the body and could
not possibly recover. Three Fingered
Jacks name is Boone, and he was a
member of the Dalton gang. There
| is a large reward offered for him in
| Kansas, where he is wanted for train
robbery. Tecumseh is also bad man
and is wanted on several charges at
Fort Smith.

Governor Altgeld's speech at the
labor demonstration at Chicago was a
good one, and should be read by all
classes. 1t was free from anarchy and
demagogy, and defined the labor
problem from a broad and sound
standpoint. He gave the laboring
class salutary advice, which, if needed,
would make the organization one res
pected and powerful. He bid them to
be peaceful in distress, and law abiding
in their methods of agitation. The
following from his speech embodies
advice to the laborer that should find
an abiding place in his heart, and 2
lesson which should be studied care
fully, with the view to future profit:
ssThe lesson that wish to impress
upon you is that in business, in the
industries, in government, everywhere,
only those interests and forces survive
that can maintain themselves along
legal lines, and if you permanently
improve your condition it must be by
intelligently and patriotically standing
together all over the country. Every
plan must fail unless you do this. AT
present you are to a great extent yet a
scattered force, sufficiently powerful,
if collected, to make yourselves beard
and felt; to secure not only fair hear
ing but fair decision of all questions.
Unite this power and You will be in
dependent; leave it scattered and you
will fail. Organization is the result of
education as well as an educator.

Bushyhead's Soft Snap.

ARKANSAS CITY, Kan, Sept a.-Ex-
Chief Bushyhead of the Cherokee ma
ton, has joined the boomer contingent
in this city. To say that he is a very
happy Indian does not give a correct
idea of his overfowing joy. The
cause of his present happy frame OF
mind was contained from the interior
department to the effect that his
selection Of q quarter section adjoin-
ing the town-site and county seat OF
Kildare had been ratified by the gen.
eral land office. He selected this claim
May "a, or three months before it was
named as townsite by governmental
authority. Fifty-four families OF
homeseekers went into camp here yes
terday, and 122 men arrived on the
trains

Our Public Schools

Are the main-stay of our republic. In
them are being cultivated the minds
which are to be our future law makers
and leaders in every walk of life. How
essential it is that these minds should be
united to strong, healthy bodies. Sc
many children suffer from impurities and
poisons in the blood that it is wonder
that they ever grow up to be men and
women. Many parents cannot find words
strong enough to express their gratitude
to Hoods Sarsaparilla for its good effect
upon their children. Scrofula, salt rheum
and other diseases of the blood, are
effectually and permanently cured by this
excellent medicine, and the whole being
is given strength to resist attacks o.
disease.

No More Pension Suspensions Except
Where Fraud Is Proven.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 2.-Commis-

has issued an order modify ing the
practice of the office.
The most important change is that
which directs that hereafter there will
be no suspensions except where the
record shows on it's face that the
soldier was not entitled to any pension
whatever. 1t is thought, however,
the number who will come under this
class will be very small.
