WAT TURNER.
Railroad while Drunk Murder
SusnectpJ.

lie Meets with a Violent Death on the
Railroad while Drunk Murder
Suspected.
Wat Turner, a young man well-known
in the community as hand who has
been working about the saw-mills for
several years, was found dead on the
railroad track Sunday morning near
Mr.. Thompson's residence on the South
side of town. His head was complete
ly severed from the body and lying by
the side of one of the rails; while the
body had been rolled by a passing
train several yards beyond, scraped and
bruised in many places, and one of the
legs and foot badly mangled. There
were two cuts on the head and holes i'll
his hat of corresponding size which
suggested that he might have been
knocked on the head by some one and
placed on the track to conceal the
murder; but whether this was the case,
or the cuts made by some passing train
after the head was severed from the
trunk, could not be definitely deter
mined by the mere physical signs.
George Turnbough says Turner was
at Turnbough's stable about Q o'clock
Saturday night under the influence of
liquor. Lucien Scott says he saw him
at the depot just as the II o'clock train
went north and that he was drunk, had
bottle of liquor in one hand and start
ed off down the railroad in the direc
ton he was found dead next morning
Arthur Lee, the negro night watch
man at Marshall's Mill mile south of
town, says Turner and will Hardy or
Coot Stewart, (ho was not sure which j,
came to the planning mill about II
o'clock, both drunk. and threatened to
take his gun away from him. He re-
monstrated with them and soon after
ward they left and he saw them no
more.
Turner was reckless and dis5olute in
his habits He will be remembered as
one of the men arrested for assisting
in the escape Of Leonard Smith, after
he had been refused bail for the muir
der of young Angiin, but was after
ward discharged for lack of proof.
The following Coroner's jury is in
vestigating the case: S. f. Magee,
John W. Martin, Chas. McNair, J. M.
Tedford, Henry Cushman, J. H. Will

RANG IN A COLD DECK.
One Oh the Most Agreeable Men on a
Steamer for Europe.

From the Chicago Inter-Ocean.
THE Last time l went to Europe" said
m editorial friend of mine, II went in very
distinguished company. Among my fellow
passengers We're George Gould and family,
Widener, Elkins and Yerkes the street
railway inillionaires. and don't know how
many mere ric'1 men.
ION the second day out there was the
usual drift of fellows of sporting proclivi-
ties toward the smoking room, and very
soon several games were going on. a very
sentlemanly person, who was looking on,
like myself asked me IL 1 ever played
poker / SAID, Yes, now and then, if the
stakes are small. After a little further
conversation we found three other men,
took a table. an. began to play dollar
limit game. Some of them wanted TO make
the limit higher. but / was firm, and we
kept it down. We played pretty much all
day, and then arain at night, without any
very big hands Or any great variation In
luck. Finally, however, i struck a big
hand, and did my gentlemanly friend
who was, indeed quite the most agreeable
man at the table We backed our hands
for all they were worth, and perhaps in my
case for more, for / lost. The same thing
happened several times, and the result was
that, small as the game was, / got up from
the table $50 out of pocket The next day
we played again, but there was very little
life in the game, and finally we gave Ii up.
1.-The matter han almost passed out of my
mind, when the man who had won my
money came to me one day as we were
nearing the other side, and said
:" L think l ought to give that money back
to you
81 don't see why said l. If had won
your money l should have taken it
Yes, but this is different
How different? / don't understand
"'Well. the fact is, / don't mind telling
you, / am professional
Well. If had known that don't think
1 would have played with you. But If you
won my money fairly, keep it,
That's just it, he said. Here is your
money. You are not the sort of game 1 am
after. / rang in a cold deck on you during
a DEAL ] am one of the few who can do it. >
Then he went on to tell me. after / had
taken the money, that he had come aboard
expressly to pluck George Gould or one Of
the street railway magnates, but had given
up the job. The fact is he said, rich men
nowadays are not like they used to be. So
soon as man gets big pot of money he
does all his gambling in stocks or grain.
Sometimes we get hold of a sucker that has
come into a fortune by luck, and he is good
game, but that sort of thing is getting
sCarcer every day. Don't give me away
until / leave the shin, Good day."

So now that the obligation has been i'm
posed upon them, would be better pleased
il they had never been enfranchised.
The Senatorial Contest.
The populists are making very aggres-
sive fight to capture the next legislature
for the purpose of retiring Senator VOL
colt from the United States Senate. The
rank and file of the populist party are
very bitterly opposed to corporations. and
to anybody connected with them, and the
leaders recognizing this, are vigorously eX-
plotting the fact that Wolcott is a railroad
attorney. Ii they succeed in controlling
the legislature the probability is that
Waite will be Senator Teller's colleague
after the 4th of March next. 1t is well
known that the senatorial bee is creating
considerable disturbance in Fences vicin-
ity, and there is not much love lest be-
tween him and the governor, but the lat
ter is the idol of the populis: masses, and
it is hardly probable that a legislature
elected by them would care to disregard
that sentiment, unless he should formally
withdraw from the race.
The only hope of republican success lies
in the possibility that they may carry the
counties east of the mountains by ma
jorities sufficient to overcome the populist
ma jority in the rest of the state Pence
carried the first district, in which the city
of Denver is located, by plurality of only
q little more than two thousand out OF a
total vote of about forty thousand. In
yer with the present populist admlil1stra-
ton he stands a fair chance of being de-
feated. In Bells district. however, 1t is
not such plain sailing. He carried 1t In
'02 by a plurality OF twelve thousand and
the indications are that he will carry IL
again, though by reduced plurality. His
opponent, Bowen, is union labor man ana
was nominated by the republicans for the
purpose of overc oming, as far as possible,
the hold Waite has upon the miners. These
two candidates are pretty well matched, IN
telectually, but in the first district Pence
has considerably the advantage of his OPP
ponent, Shafrcth, in being decidedly the
better campaiRner of the two.
The republican candidate for governor, A.
W. McIntire, is ranchman from beyond
the mountains. He is said to be very rich,
and II is charged by the opposition that his
willingness to spend money freely in the
campaign was the cause of his noInina-
ton. However that may be, he was but
very slightly known in. the state prior to
his nomination. He is generally regarded
as clean man, one who has no incon-
venient public record behind him that eeds
to be explained or excused, and whose abil-
ity is sufficient to enable him to fill the
position of governor with at least average
dignity and Judgment
Taken all in ALL the situation is exceed.
ingly complex and the outcome can only be
conJectured, but the present indications are
that the governors followers carry the
whip

WOMEN AFTER MARRIAGE.
A French Explanation Why They Are
COurtef Less Than Young Girls.

Paul Bourget the American Woman.
Why is the young married woman in the
United States less courted than the young
girl? That is the first question that offers
itself to the stranger after a few weeks of
residence. Is 1T that the Americans respect
marriage more than We do? Is 1t that the
custom being more simple and more pure,
the heart of the young man is repugnant to
what adultery repres ents of bitter emotions
and liberated feelings even in happiness?
Does time fail for the seductions which
must be deeply planned and slowly? Is 1t
the disgust of the lie, that feature so re-
markable in the soul of the Anglo-Saxon
1t is certain, however. that I'm society you
will never hear illusions made to one of
those liaisons such as exist and abound in
Paris, and even in London-that line of de-
marcation between CoQuetry and intimacy,
between the surroundings of the fault and
the fault itself American conversation al
ways avoids II.
''Such things do not exist in the United
States" That Is the phrase which / have
heard several of my friends here express,
and when objected to one of them, the at
titude of such and such women with such
and such men, which seemed to me to bear
indisputable evidence. These women think
| it necessary to have a history" one of
them replied, because they have them in
| Europe. ." Only instead of hiding them,
| they publish them as much as possible, pre-
| cisely because there is nothing serious in
them"
The stranger can but reply by the great
word of doubt of the most skeptical of peo-
pie, and the least American sara" Two
| reasons of a very different kind explain a
| priori, If one can say so, that the married
| woman should be more protected here than
| in the old world.
The first that we must not exaggerate is
| the background of Puritansm which has
| lessened from year to year for the past
| fifty years, almost from month to month
| But IT has not yet disappeared altogether.
| The second comes from that extraordinary
| facility Of divorce, at which the severe
| morallsts shudder. If they are right, from
| the point of the greater good, they are as
| surely wrong from the point of the lesser
| evil. Here again the Americans have obey
| ed their instincts of seeing things as they
| are and of allowing themselves to be led
| by facts, accepting them without discuss
| ing
