Nothing has been heard Of the where
abouts of John Kujath, who murdered
Noble Britton on Crooked creek in Car
bon county last week. Kujath made his
escape after the shooting and it is sup
posed he is in hiding in the Pryor noun
ta'ns. Everyone is trying to imagine a
cause for what seems to be a most cold
blooded murder. Several reasons are ad-
Vanced, but nom are known to be the
exact truth. One is that an old feud ex-
listed on account of trouble over cattle.
some of Britton's stock breaking down
kujath's fences; another that jealousy
is thought TO have existed between them,
because. though both of them were rich,
one had prospered more than the other.

having been brought on through a love
affair. The real cause will probably
never be known until Kujath is found.
