shaw Makes ,:soa the Deficit.

At the last meeting Of the board os
Home commissioners the matter Of the de
Iosit of 81 100 in the State Bank was
brought up and Commander Shaw gave
n guarantee to make good any loss that
should he sustained by the deposit when
ever final settlement OF the banks al.
fairs should bc settled. There ar. grave
doubts as to Mr.. Shaw's Liability in the
matter, but Mr.. Shaw was willing To
assume NIL III. responsibility rather than
the state should lose dollar by reason
Of the bank failure.
In this connection it may be- said, Tor
the encouragement ~ other dcposi,ors.
that only one state bank that has failed
In Colorado has paid less than dollar
for dollar at the final winding up,
Some of Mr.. Shaw's enemies tried
TO make him trouble ON account of the
bank failure and in reply TO Republi.
can reporter In Denver, Mr.. Shaw said:
There has hcrn some talk that a. a
result OF this Mabcn bank incident
would resign. There i not word of
truth in any rcpaft that have been
asked 10 take any such course, but am
only too willing To do -n IL tho commits.

THE MYSTERY
IS SOLVED.

saturday the liieless body of John
Nelson was found in the timber at the
foothills some SIX or eight miles from his
home.
II seems that when he disappeared on
the morning OF February l5, he took
with HIM some binding twine and when
a sale distance from home he committed
suicide by hanging, although when found
his body was lying on the ground.
The body was discovered by Mexican
who at once notified the coroner and
Charley Brastow. An inquest was held
and Saturday funeral services took place
at the late residence OF tine deceased,
conducted by the Rev. O. ). Baum
1t will be remembered that Mr.. Nelson
fell while building his house last sum.
mer, striking his head, and since then
has not been IN his right mind, and his
tragic ending is thus accounted for.
