The animal was recovered at Benson a couple of weeks ago after the expenditure of consider able money. On Wednesday night he put another horse in the stall which had been occupied by this 'one. Yes terday morning the horse was gone. It was found before noon wandering about the streets. MG. Hir5t says it could not possibly have gone out Of the stable on it's own motion. The thecry therefore, is that the thief who had stolen the first horse went back to steal it again, relying on his bump of locality. Subsequently finding he had taken a much less valuable animal he turned it loose.

MURDER IN HONDURAS.

Pittsburg, Feb. 19-The Post tomorrow
will say: The murder of Frank Pears, the
Pittsburg man. in Honduras, on Jan. 81,
will undoubtedly lead to most embarrass-

lie shall apologize and at the same time
deliver uD Il great amount of gold as a
fine Tor the foul murder committed
Backed by Senators Foraker of Ohio

State Senator c. l.. Magee, Harry b.
Pears of Pittsburg, brother of the muir

to lay his case before the government of
the United States.
Yesterdays mail brought a letter from
a third Pears. now in Honduras, giving
the details Of the killing of Frank Pears.
The case is far more revolving than at
first thOught-it seems a case of most
cold-blOOded murder of an American by
the orders of a hotheaded new military
governor. Mr. Pears Will lay the facts
before President Mckinley today and
will request that the government of the
United States demand instantly the re-
moval from Office and punishment of NJ

governor OF the district OF San Pedro, and
that an indemnity. not less than 100000
in gold. be paid by the government of

COLORADO SNOWSLJDES.
One Man Killed and Concentrator De-
stroyed Near Telluride.

Telluride, Colo, Feb. ia tremen-
dous snowslide came down the side of
Yellow mountain about one-quarter of
a mile below the town of Ophir this
afternoon and killed one man and prac-
tically destroyed the Caribou concen-
trating plant. The slide was plainly
visible from the town of Ophir and
those who saw it say it was the largest
they ever witnessed, it apparently be-
ing about 100 feet deep and more than
a quarter of a mile wide.
The Caribou mill was crushed like an
egg shell. j. c. Vardel, the mill fore
man, was the only person killed. A
force of men has been digging for Var
ders body, but had not recovered it this
evening.
Mighty slides have been running all
day on the mountains around Ophir
and the miners are becoming much
frightened. On two or three proper
ties they have refused to work and
came to town, some of them coming to
Telluride.
The sun has been shining brightly to-
day, softening the snow and causing
the slides to run.
