G. ARTHUR CHASE.
One of Boulder's Most Prominent Young
Men Prematurely Carried Off

Men Prematurely Carried On.
In the death of Arthur Chase, the COM
munity mourns the loss of one of its
brightest and most promising members.
No young man in the city of Boulder
commanded the more hearty esteem and
respect of his fellow men than did he.
Upright and just in his business dealings,
loving and kind in his domestic circles,
genial and sincere in his social inter-
course, he merited the high regard in
which he was held by all, and his de-
cease leaves vacancy which cannot be
filled. The death of Mr.. Chase occurred
last night shortly before IL o'clock.
The illness which caused his death was
pneumonia and was In the nature of a
monia some time about the holidays and
was confined for several days, but was
up and around again before he was en-
trely recovered. For some weeks he
attended to business daily in spite of
earnest protestations from his family,
when he was in no condition to be out,
and the announcement that he was III
again with pneumonia a little over two
weeks ago was not surprise to his
many friends. Since then he has been
lingering between life and death, his
family and friends waiting in painful sus-
pense for some encouraging signs of I'M
provement. Last Sunday 1t was report
ed that the looked for change had come.
as he had passed good night and his
fever had slightly abated. His condi-
ton was about the same Yesterday and
hopes were being entertained that he
might after all recover. But the long
wasting illness proved fatal and he pass
ed away last night.
Mr.. Chase was born on a farm about
five miles east of Boulder on the first of
March, 1867, where he spent the first
few years OF his life. He attended the
Boulder public schools and when about
Io entered the preparatory department
of the university, where he remained two
years, Having an opportunity to learn
the assaying business, he discontinued
his school work at the age of IS and en-
tered the employment OF the Golden Re-
duction works, then in operation here,
and remained there three years. After
wards he engaged in business for him
self with R. L. Thompson, but after a
short time broke up the business and
went over to Steamboat Springs where
he remalned about a year. Returning
to Boulder after this he reengaged in the
assaying business here and had remained
until the time of his death.
Shortly after returning from Steam
boat Springs and about years ago, he
became engaged to and married Miss
Dora Miner, a Boulder young lady,
with whom he has lived happily until the
present time.
The family of Mr. Chase has the SIM
cerest sympathy of the community in
their bitter loss, and words of consolation
are extended to the wife in the loss of
her husband and to his parents and
brothers tor the loss of loving and be-
loved son and brother.
The services will take place at the
home of the deceased at 2:3o Thursday
afternoon and will be conducted by the
Rev, Caverno. The funeral cortege will
then proceed to the cemetery under the
escort of the Knight Templars, and the
last rites will be administered by the
Masonic order.

have been sent on a wild goose chase.
Their last dollar being expended on rail-
road fare, they are landed penniless in
strange place and without work.
The five men that applied to Sheriff
Dyer this morning for his certificate to
show that they had been here, were sent

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear. There is
only one way to cure deafness, and that is
by constitutional remedies. Deafness is
caused by an infamed condition of the
mucous lining of the Eustachian tube.
When this tube gets inflamed you have a
rumbliDg sound of imperfect hearing, and
when it is entirely closed deafness is the re-
suit, and unless the inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to its
normal condition, hearing will be destroyed
forever; nine cases out Of ten are caused by
catarrh, which is nothing but an infamed
condition of the mucous surfaces.
We will give one hundred dollars for any
case of deafness Caused by catarrh) that
cannot be cured by Halls Catarrh Cure.

HAS A CORNER in OATS,

an Unexpected Manner.

Letter Prepared to Squeeze Spectators In
an Unexpected Manner.
Chicago, Dec. 2S.-Friday, which will
witness the close Of the great Letter
deal in wheat on the board Of trade.
bids fair to prove a memorable day In
the trade. No great excitement is ex-
pected in the wheat pit, but in oats
squeeze of shorts may occur.
1t is believed that Mr.. Letter has been
turning a trick on the trade in oats
while everybody was watching wheat.
For weeks the oats pit has been prac-
tically deserted. Last week there was
a disagreeable surprise to the men who
had sold 100000 bushels OF oats for
December delivery when they learned
that no oats were being delivered. Then
they awoke to the fact that in all the
but $4,000 bushels of the contract
grades. 1t was Wednesday when they
made the discovery. The price Of De-
cember oats was then 20as cents. A
or cents in wheat. 1t is too late to
rush in a supply to meet the calls which
will be made for the grain at the close
of business on Friday. Those who have
not delivered the grain according to
contract will be called upon to settle at
the closing price. The situation has all
the elements of squeeze.
