BURIED ON HIS RANCH.
Finding of Sheep Herder's Body
Furnishes Proof of Murder.

Finding of Sheep Herder's Body
Furnishes Proof of Murder.
Parties arriving from Byers, Colo, re-
port the finding of the body of Otto
Goette, or Brown, as he was commonly
known, sheep ranchman, who was MUIR
dered on his ranch Sept. 80, 1898. Goette
disappeared and his 1000 sheep were af-
terward sold in Omaha. A draft for the
receipts of the sale was cashed at the
Colorado National Bank in Denver by Is.
II. Beeler. 1t was believed that Goette
was murdered and suspicion pointed to
Beeler as the murderer. Efforts were
made to capture him, but all trace of him
was lost at Salt Lake. The body of Goette
had been buried near stream on his
ranch and the spring rains had unearthed
it. A large hole in the skull corroborated
the murder theory.

The project for tunnel from England

fore just now in London. 1t is announced
that no fewer than five separate projects

in the way are great, the depth necessitat-
ing steep gradients for the distance tray-

ty-fve fathoms, and the distance. accord

be shortened. according to the Arnold-tos-

burned to the ground a saloon known as
the Preside Club cafe and resisted ar
rest by colored troops of the Twenty
fourth infantry and the local police. The
police fred upon the rioters to intimidate
them and several hundred arrests were
made. The trouble grew out of injuries
inflicted on G. L. King, a soldier in the
Twentythird infantry, the previous night
in the saloon. The soldier was so badly
beaten that his life was despaired of. Sew
eral hundred of his comrades marched on
the saloon. The keeper saw them coming
and fed. They bombarded the place
with stones and then set it on fire. The
provost guard, which happened to be
drawn from the colored regiment, and
large detachment of local police had much
trouble in quelling the rioters. All the
offenders were raw recruits.
