but had been overcome by the smoke
and flames and persisted miserably.

knew him since he arrived in town be-
gan to put various circumstances to-

Der on East Douglas avenue with whom
Mr.. Timmons got shaved. Friday af-
tenroon, the last time he was seen, he
became communicative with the bar
Der. He told him that he wanted to go
| TO Denver, and made inquiries as to how
he could go there without spending
money. He said that he heard people
talking about riding on the blind bag

him how il was done.

If he went 20 Denver the police think
he would have taken his letters with

very sick. Having taken severe cold
on Christmas eve, she has been suffer-

life-lease on his formerly robust consti-
tuition in a manly physique full of ac-

of war that wrecks the physical frame

soldier but of generations yet unborn.

inducement for me to enlist" And yet
