TRAGEDY IN DENVER.
Clandestine Lovers Decide to Die

Denver. Colo. Oct PA hor-
rible tragedy occurred this morn

enteenth street and caused great
sensation. Mrs. Nellie Hardifer.
wife of prominent contractor of
this city. aud William P Flanders
a well known married man. have
for some time aroused the suspi-
cions of the other half of their
households by their desire to be
together so often To this Hardi-
fer objected and it was thought
she had forgotten Flanders She
however, according to the clerks
of the hotel, has been coming to
Flanders room almost every day.
Hardifer was informed of their
actions today and was searching
for his wife when she learned of
her husbands knowledge of the
affair. She and Flanders decided
they could not live apart and
would rather die than be separat-
ed They took ohloroform in his
own room together and left note
saying if they could not live to-
gether they could die together.
When the police arrived the
woman WIS dead and the man was
unconscious.
Flanders was taken to the
county hospital where he may re-
cover But if he does he will have
to answer to the charge of murder
as the statutes of Colorado hold
that when one of the parties to an
attempt at suicide fails to accom-
plish the act, he is murderer.

Problem of the PhOtOgrapher-Ster
Osc0pe Not Dead.


From the New York Evening Post
"A curious popular delusion about pho
tography," remarked the proprietor of
big Broadway studio, rs that we are wor-
rying ourselves to discover a method of
color work for-this years illustrated
nature-books to the contrary, notwith-
standing-it hasn't been discovered yet
Now, very few Of us waste any thought
on that at all. When the process is or
iginated, 1t viii come from some scientific
laboratory.
Frankly, we are all after the 'stereo-
scope effect We want to make the
lenses see double like the eyes, you
know, so that the object photographed
may stand out as it does in real vision
Our constantly having to limit ourselves
to seeing black and white, may keep
us from thinking over-much on the po-
tentialities Of color but che unified stere-
oscope, perspective in photography
well, we can't help feeling chat We ought
to be within the range Of practical optics
Certainly, there are as many cranks pes
tering us with It's discovery as there are
perpetual motion inventors enrolled in the
books of the Patent Office. when 1t does
come though, it will call for another Col
Sellers to reckon up the millions in it,
And. speaking of the stereoscope, do
you know that the sale Of that dear old
standby OF the front parlor what-not has
really never fallen off? There are still
several firms making the ancient yellow
mounted views of Niagara, the Yellow
stone and the Battlefield of Gettysburg.
No blasphemous present-day scoffing has
touched them. More curious than that
too, a young friend of mine, who trav-
els for a photo-supply house, has just
discovered in a little, back-county Ohio
town an old fellow VINO Is still making
the genuine and original daguerreotype
He is putting that gentle old rose tint on
the cheeks, is gliding the ladies' brooch
es and earrings and is framing his little
art works in their inseparable satin-lined
leather cases"

cONFEDERATE FLYING MACHINE,
An Artificial bird which Was to
Wipe Grants Army out of
Existence.

From the Charlotte, N. c., Observer
In these days when flying machines are
coming about and promising to dsport
themselves In the upper air, / am glad
to see in your issue OF the sth instant
that the Confederate ARTS Avis" is not
to be forgotten.
Yes, we heard OF II on Longstreet's
lines, on the Richmond side OF the
James, in the winter of 1876 | think
1t was about January, 1865. when Prof"
Blank came along and we gathered
around him TO hear him tell OF his won
derful bird. My recollection is there
was to be but one bird, and that would
have been enough, according to him. lie
spoke about two hours. 1t was a rare
treat After describing the bird, sub
stantially as you gave IL but In creator
detail, he then turned loose and painted
most graphic picture Of what it would
do. This was the part of his speech
which Interested us soldiers the most
for we were sadly in need of REINFORCE
ments.
The bird, well loaded with many hun
dreds shells, to use his words, with a
belly full Of shells" would sail out OF
Richmond, high above the reach of can
non shot, and beginning on the left Of
Grants line would drop shells and con-
sternation among his troops all down his
lines to James river until his whole army
should be demoralized scattered and
crushed! Then his bird would head down
the river. clean up all gunboats, trans
ports and other vessels, drop some shells
into Fortress Monroe and silence its guns
then turn up the Potomac, clear every
thing before IL, overthrow old Abe, his
cabinet and government and spread ter
ror and dismay everywhere in the North,
BY that time. he said. the abdominal
cavity of the bird would be empty so 1t
could fly fast, and he would strike for
Charleston, S. c.. there reload--or refeed
his bird, turn ON Sherman, who was
then thereabouts, and demolish him and
his whole army, then off for Nashville
and dispose OF Thomas and his forces;
then refeed his bird with shells, and
striking out for the Mississippi sweep
that river and its tributaries of all hos
tile boats and troops. and finally drop
few shells on any Yankee still under arms
beyond that river! lie thought this could
all be done in about eight days. Then the
war would be over, the Confederacy es-
tablshed. and we could all go home and
sing the immortal praises of his bird, for
II could not sing; 1t was made for work.
This is but the faiutest outline of what
he said about his bird. | repeat, II was a
rare treat, a glorious vision breaking in
upon US out there In the cold with our
thin lines needing help. And he was in
dead earnest
lie took w a collection. handed him
two dollars, worth about ten cents, and
remarked TO him that while my faith la
his bird was not strong enough ito re-
move mountains nor Grant, yet he had
afforded me q treat worth two dollars
