Jacob ID. Shelter was almost instantly
killed by a falling bucket of dirt in the
Specie mine, near Old Silver Bow. a
little before o'clock yesterday after
noon. The Specie is owned by Fred
Hammer, L. Little and the dead man,
and they were all working at the prop
erty when the accident occurred. SINK
ing was in progress and Shelter was at
the bottom of the shaft alone, while his
partners were on top and were hoist
ing the dirt in a bucket with hand
windlass. Shelter had filled the buck
ct, which held about 800 pounds of rock.
and given the signal to hoist. and II
had been hoisted about 80 feet when
the rope broke and the bucket fell back
to the bottom with terrible force. IL
struck Shelter on the top of the head
and a little to one side and crushed his
skull in, besides infiicting other injuries
of a serious nature. His partners got
him out of the shaft as quickly as pos
sible and carried him to his cabin
short distance away. where he died in
about 20 minutes
!. Doctors were summoned from the
city, but he was dead before they ar
rived. Coroner Richards brought the
body in and he will conduct an inquest

in use for a long time, and had been

liable to have an accident with IL any

and was in Leadville for a few months

enough to elect. but IL is evident that

Last Tuesday afternoon. James D. Murray, Ed Sherlock and William Johnson came in from SpringerviIle, having in custody two prisoners named Ike Aldridge and Bill Johnson, who were committed to the county jail from Justice Long's court, on a charge of grand larceny.
 On the night of the 9th Inst.. eight horses and two mules were stolen from Becker's pasture, at SpringerviIle. Ed Sherlock and William Johnson took the trail on the 10th, five days after, and followed 1t until they finally overlook the thieves on Eagle creek, in Graham county, and succeeded in capturing them without any great trouble. The horses had been cached n 8 canyon Tn the mountains, and oniy one of the mules was found in their possession. Aldrldge and Johnson confessed, how ever, to having stolen the horses, and told where ttIey had hidden them. John son plead guilty in the justice court. and both are held to await the action of the next term of the district court. and were committed Tn default of bail to the amount of $l 900 each.

Joint Debate.

A joint debate was held on last Sun day evening, the 18th inst, at Assem- Div hall. The question was, Resolved that war is more beneficial to civiliza- tion than peace." The proposition was argued ill the affirmative by Mrs. Ame- lia Coleman, Miss Pearl Walters, and Messrs. Willard Coleman and Warren J. Mallory; and denied by Mrs. Farr, Mrs. Sigra Davls and Prof A. c. Peter son. Nofear Davis, Esq, presided. The manner in which the ladies, one and all. handled her side of the question, was revelation. Had any of the east ern women suffrage advocates orrepre- sentatlves of the new woman, been present and heard these ladies speak, they would have turned green with envy at the forensic talent displayed.
