the gold, which was in plain view, Was
not touched, and nothing else in the room

THINK THEY HAVE
WOMAN MURDERER

Denver, Colo, Feb. 26.-Chief of De
tectives Armstrong believes that Al
COwen, who was arrested last night, is
the mysterious prOwler who struck
down three women with an iron bar
club in this city last Friday night, and
who has murderously assaulted nearly
a score of women on the streets in
the last six months. When arrested,
Cowen had in his possession an iron
bar about a foot in length, besides a.
revolver and a supply Of cartridges. He
answers the meagre descriptions that
had been obtained of the man who has
been terrOrizing the women of this
city. He does not talk cOherently, and
appears to be mentally unbalanced.
Questioned by Captain Armstrong in
Jail, COwen said he had been ''Derse-
cuted by women"
Why were you prosecuted by
women 2' was asked.
4 was; I hate them. but I'll not tell
you any more; 1 don't trust anyone"
COwen has been living in Denver
about a year. He said he came from
Virginia. OF the three women assault
ed last Friday night one is dead, and
another is dying.
Albert Frederick, a veteran of the war
in the Philippines, this evening informed
the police that he saw man running
from the spot where Mrs. Mary ShOrl,
the victim of the Capitol Hill thug
last Friday, was soon afterward found

ANOTHER KINDERGARTEN BILL
NEW MEASURE DISCUSSED BY
EDUCATORS.
Board Of Education Approves Substi-
tute Bill Framed by Professor
Stewart.

There was a meeting last evening be-
tween a committee of the board of edu-
cation and the committee of educators
that is working TO engraft the kinder
garten system upon the public school
system of the state, but outside of d
great deal of interesting discussion on ed
vocational topics in general and the kin
dergarten system in particular very little
was accomplished.
OF the board of education there were
present MesSrs- Newman, Bamberger,
MOyle, Geoghegan. CritchloW, Branting
and Giauque. Among the educators pres
Brimhau, Mrs. Alice Merrill Horne, Mrs.
F. s. Richards, Miss Holton, Miss May,
superintendent Ashton and Miss Don
neIta SnlJn heSSIer
The chief discussion of the evening cen
tered around a substitute bill submitted
by Professor Stewart. After some modi-
hcatiOn this bill read:
That no teacher shall be eligible to
teach in the first or lowest grade of the
public schools of Utah who has not the
legal quahhcatlOns required of the kin
dergarten teacher as prescribed in sec
ton 1866, revised statutes of Utah. Pro-
Vided, that the provisions of this act shall
not apply to teachers now holding legal
certificates until on and after July l,
This act. shall take effect on and after
The subject was discussed by Miss Hol-
ton, Professor Stewart, Professor Brim-
hall, Mr.. MOyIe. Mr.. Bamberger Mr.
Giauque, Mr.. CritchlOw, Miss May and
Mrs. Horne. Finally Mr.. Critchlow moved
to strike out the words until on and
after July 1, 1906 in the proviso, so that
il would not deprive this city of the
splendid primary teachers it now has by
forcing them into other fields After an
animated discussion of this point a vote
was taken and the amendment carried
by the votes of Messrs. Bamberger
GGOghegan, CritchlOW and Newman .
MOyle Branting and Giauque voted in the
negative. Then a vote was taken on the
bill as amended and il carried by the
votes Of MOyle, GeOghegan, Branting
Giauque and Newman; Bamberger and
CritchlOW voting no.
All the speakers expressed themselves
as being strongly in favor of the kin
dergarten system. but some objected to
the expense and others objected to sS-c-
ing the teachers now at work to take
kindergarten training.

shooting LODGE
ON BEAR RIVER
Denver Capitalists Are the
Principal Promoters.
A $4,000 CLUB HOUSE
ONLY REPUTABLE sPORTsMEN
INVITED TO JOIN.

If present plans do not miscarry,
Denver ana Salt Lake hunters viii
soon control what is said to be the
finest duck shooting grounds in the
western country, and perhaps in the
United States This is the territory
known as the Davis duck camp, COM
prising 1900 acres Of land at the mouth
Of Bear river.
The proposition originated in Denver
with A. B. Daniels and George VaIlery
as The principal promoters. They
have secured an option on the Davis
place at 5000 and they are now try
ing, through a local man, to add the
Knudsen place which adjOins Davis.
So far no figure has been set by Knud-
sen, but it is reported that he is will
ing to sell.
The idea is. according to a Salt
Iaker who is interested, to build a
magnificent club house on the Davis
ranch. II will be fitted up with every
possible convenience and will cost in
the neighbOrhOOd or $4,000 The steam
launch which runs between COrinne
and the duck grounds wiz be included
IN the deal and viii become the prop
erty Of the club.
Il is proposed to organize with a
membership Of 100. OF this number,
probably twenty-five viii be Denver
men and seventy-dVe Utahns. The
club would control the grounds abso-
lutely and nobody but rlenl bers and
guests would be allowed to hunt there.
Rules wll be passed limiting the daily
XIII of members to not more than
twenty-five ducks each, and in this way
the organization hopes to become a
factor in the preservation of game
only sportsmen of well established
reputation are to be invited to join,
and then only on the payment of a
liberal initiation fee and handsome an
nual dues. The club house viii be open
every day and night during the duck
season. It viii contain sleeping rooms,
dining room and all the comforts of
home, including plunge baths. It is
even stated that a small electric light
plant nay be installed.
Those interested in the organization
hope to see it completed in time to
have the club house ready for next
seasons shooting.
