giant Store.
Unquestionably, the above company
has the handsomest and most tastefully
arranged bicycle establishment in this
city. visit quickly convinces one
that Manager Hitchcock knows the
bicycle business from A to z. The
show windows are very tastefully ar
ranged, and in them are shown Ia
dies and gents model of the "Kensing-
ton" bicycle, which is most emphatic
ally the finest high-grade wheel ever
shown here; and is, without doubt,
the finest wheel now made in the
United States. The bearings in this
wheel are a revelation in dust-proof
and oil retaining qualities, and are not
equalled in any other make of wheel.
There are on exhibition in one of the
show windows, a complete set of the
"Kensington" bearings with drawings
in explanation. The work on these
bearings, and the material of which
they are made, are not equalled in any
other wheel The company also handle
the ''Sylph" which comes in after the
"Kensington'' as a good second. Upon
entering the store one is at once struck
with the interior arrangement for the
display of wheels and sundries, which
for economy in space, is certainly
unique, and shows off the elegant line
Of wheels to the best advantage. The
repair department of this establish
ment is without question the most COM

Denver, Nov. 16.-There is not doubt
about the Rev. Myron w. Reeds ear
nestness in proposing to take steps to
have Game Warden Wilcox and his
associates in the Routt county
troubles brought to trial. Mr. Reed
has investigated the case pretty thor
oughly himself, and to insure a fair
and impartial report has sent two men
to the scene of the troubles to gather
all the information they can without
attracting notice; then to report to
him.
Since their departure Mr. Reed has
heard from them several times and is
now inclined to believe that there were
eight Indians killed on the Snake river,
instead of two, as the reports indi-
Gated. Moreover. he believes, from the
information already sent, that when
the shooting occurred the Indians we're
without arms, and that, contrary TO
reports brought down here, they did
not begin the attack. The letter states
that they were loading their ponies,
preparatory to going back to the reser-
walton, when the attacking party fred
on them. When the smoke cleared
away eight slain lay on the ground
and the frightened Utes quickly sour
ried off into the bush.
On the return of the two emissaries
they will report the result of their in
vestigatiOn to Rev. MIR. Reed. If the
facts Justify his present belief he will
Immediately lay the matter before the
United States district attorney and de-
mand that Game Warden Wilcox and
his men be proceeded against for muir
Ger.
Mr.. Reed said today: "I have heard
from the two men l sent I'D to Routt
county that they met members of the
attacking party returning from the
scene of the shooting. They say that
no two members o. the party tell the
same story of the affair. I think that
this is a matter for investigation It
is not my business to do this, but 1 am
going to make it my business to bring
statement of the facts before the

SENTENCED TO HANG.
Cold-blooded Crime of a Missouri
BackWoodsman.

Liberty, Mo-, Nov. 16-William Carr,
the felicide, was this morning sem
fenced to hang on December II. Carr
drowned his 3-year-old daughter in the
Missouri river, weighing the body
down with stones. He received the
sentence with a smile of satisfaction.
In sentencing the prisoner, Judge
Broaddus said
The crime which you have confessed
is the worst I have heard Of. You are
entitled to the sympathy of no one"
Carr had nothing to say.
Carr is a rawboned backwoodsman.
His crime was most coldblooded. On
Oct. 10 last he carried his child from
Liberty to a point near Kansas City.
He tied her arms and legs securely with
cord, paid no attention to the little
ones query what are you going to do,
papa?" and threw her into the river,
after weighing the body down with
stones. Carr was soon arrested and in
his confession admitted that he had
too many children" and that his wife
had wanted the little one gotten rid
of. He declared, however, that Mrs.
Carr had no hand in the murder. Carr
had constantly urged that he be SEN
fenced and executed promptly. His
wife is still to be tried for completely
in the crime.
