TnE report that the skeleton of

THE report that the skeleton of Fran
els Schlattsr, the divine healer was
found by prospectors in the mountains
of New Mexico, is gaining credence.
From the fact that there was no trace
of food of any kind, nor no cooking
utensils in the immediate vicinity, it
is supposed that he died of self-mposed
starvation, Francis Schlatter created
tremendous excitement in Denver for
several months, and people iourneyed
hundreds of miles to be cured Of their
infirmities. Whether or not any cures
were ever effected III question. When
the excitement was at its height this
mysterious man departed from Denver
on a white horse, passed through Pu-
eblo one stormy night, journeyed out
through the mountain passes by the
Greenhorn range, and on into n. NJ.
where the last chapter of his strange
career is told.

give the committee appointed some
weeks ago to look into the matter, more

The existing contract OF the city with

ANOTHER eccentric character and ac.
cidently rich man has gone the way Of
all flesh. 1t is reported that Barney
Barnato, the South African diamond
king, committed suicide Monday by
jumping over board in the ocean off the
west coast of Morocco, the cause prob
ably being that he was suffering from a
too high mental tension incidental to
the excitement OF speculation. He was
an English Jew, one of the wandering
Jews and had travled much and &C
cumulated a fortune estimated at half n
billion dollars. A year ago he was out
in this country and visited Cripple
Creek, and his presence caused himself
to be much discussed at the time. Bet.
ter for Barney had he been less success
full in money making.
