ALLIANCE TO DENVER.
Burlington Will Run Short Line Down
the Platte.

Sterling, Colo, Dec. 22.-The state
ment comes from high authority hat
the Burlington is seriously consider
ing a change of plans in building the
Alliance-Denver line. 1t is said the
statement was made by Superintendent
Calvert that the line from Sterling to
Brush, surveyed but not accepted, may
be abandoned and the line run direct
from Sterling to Denver. The delay
in the acceptance Of the survey from
Sterling TO Brush lends color to the,
statement.
The line as thus constructed would
follow the Platte valley on the south
side of the river to a point near Fort
Morgan and would strike the main line
at Corona, about fourteen miles west of
Fort Morgan. 1t is claimed this would
shorten the line considerably.
The Burlington has closed import
ant ore contracts with Black Hills min
ing concerns and it desires as short a
line to the smelters as the lay of the.
country will permit it to build. A few
weeks will determine whether or not
the change will be made.

called her son to the scene of one of
their quarrels.
The doctors new wife is a handsome

now resides in Omaha.

East Mortified, Mass, Dec. 22.-
Dwight L.. Moody, evangelist and foun-
der of the two schools here, died at
1906 p. m. today. He had been i'm
proving for two days, and his recovery
was looked for; but about ? O'Clock
yesterday afternoon a change for the
worse was noticed, and he sank rapid
ly. His death was due to Bright's dis
ease. He was fully conscious to the
end. and talking with members of his
family a few minutes before he died.
His death bed was surrounded by his
wife, sons William and Paul and
daughter Mrs. A. P. Fits and his SON

February 5, 1897, in Mortified. Mass,

religious services in Eng. and, Ireland
and Scotland that resulted in intense
religious excftements int hose coun-
tries. The e~vangelists returned to the
