had three bloods on his hands. " The
officials knew that hc had killed uauthier
and nearly ended the life of Scleotman
Gates, out they could not understand
where there wore grounds for claiming "a
third victim.
Search was begun at once and party
started along the Grand Trunk tracks
toward the freight yards.
At point about 800 yards from that
place the dead body of man was found.
IL was lying face down with traces Of
blood about it, When the finders turned
ii over it was seen that the trousers and
both legs seemed to 90 broken. There
were few marks OF violence about the up
per part of the body and those who saw
IL, were unable to determine how death
had been caused. The coroner, also. when
no reached the spot said that an inquest
would be necessary TO determine this fact.
SHOT THROUGH THE HEART.
The body was removed to convenient
place where IL was aftarward identified
as that of william Thoits Of Sheiburne.
Nothing further is known of this man
here.
AS soon as jury could be secured an
inques. was begun by the corcner, on
the death of Gsuthier. 1t was found
that he had been shot through the heart
and instantly killed. A shot had Also
taken of the ond OK one finger. The ver-
dict was quickly reached. II was twill

Selentman Gates, who was removed to
his home as soon IA possible after the
shotlng, was still alive at IL o'clock,
although in a critical condition. The
physicians who attended him, after an
examination, stated that IL they could
staunch the flow OF blood he might re-
cover. The chance, however, was declared
very small.

ONE KIND OF PROTECTION.

What Is the use Of an unclcan or
obnoxious station at this placer j. the
question asked. Why not place shelter
over the trucks In the form of sheds that
would also take in part Of the sidewalk,
and thus afford protection from the sun
I'm summer and the storm i'm winter, up
to the very steps of the cars?
There was some talk about erecting an
ornamental and well equipped station on
the south side Of the square, but such a
thing could not be done without pcrmis-
sion from the Legislature. In fact the
street car station cannot be put anywhere
but ON the site IL occupied before the new
bridge was begun, unless permission is
obtained from the General Assembly.

For Week Ending las, Monday.

For Week Ending last Monday.
Heavy rams fell at the begin
ming of-the week IN Cheyenne
and Kit Carson counties, on the
eastern border, and in Custer and
Las An'mas counties. and in the
south central portion OF the state.
In other section the rain was
scattered and generally light.
In most sections of the state the
past week has been very favorable
for harvesting and thrashing, but
the nights have been cool for
growing crops. In the north
central section and the Arkansas
valley wheat and oats are about
all in stacks, and thrashing has
proceeded with little or no inter
ruption. An excellent yield OF
wheat is generally reported; the
oat crop, however, is variable,
being heavy in localities, while
in others it is only fair. Corn is
making slow growth, owing to the
prevailing cool weather, but po-
tatoes are IN good growing con-
dItion generally though needing
rain in the San Luis. Grama-
grass is being cut on the prairies
of eastern counties, and heavy
crop Of millet is being put up.
The reports indicate that the third
cutting Of alfalfa will be much
heavier than the second, and in
the Arkansas valley, where the
harvest is in progress, the crop is
being secured in excellent con-
dltion. The alfalfa seed crop of
Bent county is excellent to quality
but the acreage devoted to the
crop is small. The cool nights
