TWO BROTHERS MISSING.
Left Young Wives ON Oct. o to Attend
an A. r. A. Meeting.

DENVER. Col, Nov. 2s.-On Oct. Clar-
ence and James Moulton, two brothers.
left their homes to attend an A. P. A. meet
ing and since then have not been heard
from. Their wives are unable to account
for their absence and have sent officers
TO Haverhill. Mass, where the Moultons
fomerly lived, to endeavor to find trace. of
them, but their friends at Haverhill have
seen nothing of them. On May 10 last the
two brothers married two sisters in Den
yer. The circumstances surrounding the
case are most peculiar. and there seems TO
be ground for suspecting that the brothers
have met with foul play. The report COM
of desertion, but the fact that the two hus-
bands. who had barely passed that stage
of married life known as the honeymoon,
and whose brief experience in matrlmony
TO all appearances had been most happy,
should, without a word of warning or
single indication that such fact was con-
templated drop suddenly out of sight, Is
an occurrence not very usual. In their five
months of welded bliss there has never
been the slightest approach of q quarrel
or disagreement in either home, at tea#
that is the condition Of affairs as repre-
sented by the two deserted wives and their
neighbOrs, also, who were most in q posi-
ton TO know. Some of their neighbors
have been very intimate acquaintances OF
the Moultons and their wives, and would
surely have heard of IL had there been any
cles. They all agree that SO far as their
observations went there had never been
anything to mar the peace and happiness
of the two brothers homes.

New York Letter, in Pittsburg Dispatch.
In years agone the Thanksgiving game

thousand dollars, the contingent numbering
at least one thousand lovers OF the game

tickets in advance. those who did not ex-
perienced very little trouble in securing
boxes, clubhouse seats, cover stand accom-
modations, etc. Even the latest corners
were accommodated at a trifiing advance
over the regular admission, the spectators
being content with a reasonable percent

When the crowd began to gather at the
grounds there was grand rush. There
was pushing. showing and tearing of cloth
ing until finally the crowd became partially
civilized and began to enter the
gate ia a proper manner. So dense
was the throng that many were still out
side of the gates at o'clock when play
should have been started, and, to enable
them to have an equal chance with the
early comers, the game was not started
promptly on the hour. When the hands of
the big clock the university building
pointed to o'clock the crowd became rest
less and admirers of the two teams yelled
themselves hoarse IL their endeavor to
out do each other. Finally, when at ZIP,
Captain Knipe and his band of warriors
came on the field from the southeast end
of the grounds the cheering became deaf
ening and was prolonged for almost five
minutes. 1t had not ceased when, a few
minutes later, Captain Emmons and his
team, ten sturdy men, came in at the same
point. The captains were called to the
center of the field and instructed as to the
rules and style of play and the great game
was on. The crowd gave sign and settled
back to await-almost brearhlessly-the
whistle announcing the call Of play.

AT last an act of sentimental justice
has been done by the dedication of a
monument erected over the long
neglected grave of Mary, the mother of
Washington. For thirty years efforts
have been made to accomplish this work,
but with i'll success. At one time patri-
otic citizen-Silas E. Burroughs of New
York-undertook to do it alone. and went
so far as to lay the foundation, erect a
base and place upon the ground shaft to
be raised. But the financial crash of 1873
wrecked the fortune of this patriot, the
work went to ruin and nothing more was
done until an association of American
women took hold of the work some six
or eight years ago. Through their exer-
tions the money was raised. the new
monument erected, and on Thursday it
was dedicated in the presence of the Pres
ident, Federal and State officials, local
societies and large concourse of the peo-
pie of fredericksburg and vicinity.
