DEsvER, July 9--Jessie Kinport, the IA
year old daughter Of Mrs. Carrie g. Kin'
port, who resides at l19 West Ninth Ave-
nue., was assaulted and horribly mutilat.
ed in her room during the absence Of her
mother last night. Mrs. Kinport had
been away during the evening and upon
returning home found the door open.
fastening to her daughters room she
found the bed clothes strewn about and
blood spattered over the room. The
girl was nowhere TO be seen. She
aroused the neighbors who began search-
ing the neighborhOod.
About midnight they found the girl In
a vacant lot nearby, unconscious and
fearfully mutilated. The police author
tiles we're notified but not before Chris.
Jenson had been brought 10 the station
by Policeman Lambert, who had arres.
ted him on the outskirts OF the city.
Lambert came upon Jenson about a
mile and half from the scene Of the
assault. As Lambert approached Jen-
son whipped out knife and
shouted 10 the officer that he
would not be taken to jail.
Lambert disarmed Jenson and
brought him TO the station. On the
way he repeatedly spoke ol having been
compelled 10 defend himself from a
woman, saying that he had cut her up
pretty badly. The knife with which he
had threatened the officer was soaked
with blood. Shortly after Jenson was
locked up. the police department was
notified Of the assault upon the little Kin
port girl. They Immediately connected
Jenson with the affair. Jenson admit
cd 10 Chief Armstrong that he had
stabbed and cut woman but said
that he met her In the street and she
had bumped against him az he was
passing by. From his actions the
police are convinced that Jenson Is
demented. An investigation OF the
footprints at the scene Of the crime
shows that the shoes worn by Jenson ft
the marks exactly. The police are sure
that Jenson lie the guilty person and
that he committed the numerous
assaults made upon women OF late. The
victim OF last nights assault is still
alive but In a dangerous condition.
A Later Account.

night charged with assaulting l4-yeAr-
old Jessie Kinport, on examination at
police headquarters confessed that he as
sAultsd Jessie Dinport aud also said that
he stabbed another woman last night
near the end Of University Park car line.
This morning the dead hody Of Mrs.
Armenia A. Bulls Was found at the place
described by Jensen. The body lay in
road way aud there was no evidence Of
a struggle. Jensen said tho woman was
after him with a gun when he stabbed
her. Chisl of police Armstrong says
that Jensen Is undoubtedly lunatic.

Wed nesday, April 3

A special message was read in both Gov. Davis relative to the fee allowed by the state capital commissioners to Architect George Mann. In the mes sage the governor incorporates copies of the majority and minority reports of the commission on the subject, and declares that the claim allowed MT, Mann. amounting to about $36,000, in his opinion, is unjust and extravagant. and urges that some less expensive plan be adopted, and that the contract with the architect be cancelled.
 In the senate, beyond discussion of amendments and second reading of bills, no business of importance was transacted.

It amends the existing law SC as to provide that when any person shall die. leaving widow and minor child. or widow or minor children and it shall be made to appear to the court that the personal estate of such deceased person does not exceed in value the sum of $500. the court shall make an order vesting such personal property absolutely in the widow and minor children. as the case may be. The law at present reads children, ' without the designation minor" The bill passed. s. B.

RIGHT UP TO DATE. (Bsnson's Plaster is Pains Mastsr.) )

These are days of records and of the beat. ing of records. Benson's Porous Plaster. for quickness of action and thorouphness of cure, has no records to beat except it's own. Benson's Plaster, always the best, always the leader, is to-day better than eper. 1t sticks to the skin but never sticks in it's tracks. It marches on.
 The people not only want to be cured but cured quickly-and Benson's Plaster does 1t. Coughs, colds, lumbago, asthma bronchitis, liver and kidney complaints and other ills approachable by an external remedy, yield to Benson's as ice does to heat.
 Neither Belladonna, Strengthening or Oapsicum plasters are to be compared with Benson's People who have once tested the merits of Benson's Plaster have no use for any other external remedy.
 More than 5000 physicians and drug gists (and thousand times as many non professional persons) have called Benson's Plasters one of the few CD home remedies that can be trusted.
 Fifty-fve highest awards have been made to it in competition with the best known plasters of Europe and America. Better proof of it's merits is inconceivable. Be sure to get the genuine

"The county is now ready to settle" said President Wilson. "The bonds are 3O-year bonds and fall due January |, 1902.

Down With Convict Labor.

The directors of the Little Rock board of trade adopted resolutions praying the legislature to pass some measure to eliminate competi- ton of convict labor in factories with free labor. It was asserted by several members of the board, en- gagged in the manufacturing busi- ness, that convicts had been leased to private parties at 50 cents per day to work in factories, and that those working free labor in the same branches would soon be compelled to go out of business, if present condi- tions continue. The resolution urges the general assembly to place the convicts on farm or work them inside the walls of the penitentiary

Clayton, republican candi- date for congress, is in jail at Den yer, charged with highway robbery. Hickey is smooth artist. He was under indictment for burglary at Butte, Mont, when d pal made a confession, duplicating Hickey with the Clayton murder. He was brought back to this state, tried and acquitted, it being the general opinion that the confession of the pal was for the purpose of keeping Hickey out of the Montana peni- tentiary.

Bootleggers in Trouble.

This is hard town for blind-ti- ger men, or blind-tiger women. They are sure to come to grief sooner or later, generally sooner, but in this case it was later. The authorities made a big haul Sunday night when Albert Jones and his wife were arrested. Albert has been suspected of selling whisky here for three or four years, but he was a pretty slick duck and no proof could be gotten on which to arrest him. It seems that he in- tended to do a big business during the time the show men were here on Sunday and Monday. He went to the foreman of the show and told him he wanted to furnish whisky for them. The show man surprised him by saying that he would have him prosecuted if he sold any whisky to his men. Al bert intended to do good business anyway. Marshal Boydston went up to Albert's house Saturday night and bought some whisky | from him. but the officers wanted more evidence, so Sunday night Boydston went back there and Mayor Martin watched him. The marshal bought whisky that night from Jones and also his wife. Both were arrested and each were fined $2oo, making a total of S4oo.
 These folks are poor, unless their profits on whisky has been very large, and could not pay this fine. The marshal started to jail with Jones, when Mayor Martin over took them and told Jones that if he would agree to leave the town and county the fines would be suspend ed, and that if he ever came back here he would be placed in jail un- til the fines were paid. Jones seemed to be glad to have the op- portunity of leaving instead of spending several months in jail. The full penalty would probably have been given him but for the fact that he has been sick for a long time during the past few months. He may not have been quite as sick as he pretended, how ever. It is all over with Jones now. Others should profit by his example.

 The government has just publish ed pamphlet of letters gathered by the Taft commission, which tend to show that a return of the Friars to the Philippine provinces would be the cause of an uprising that might cause rebellion.

 Rolla Wells, the democratic nomi- nee for mayor of St. Louis, defeated Geo. w. Parker, republican, by a plurality of 5000. The contest was of more than local significance, as w. J. Bryan, in his paper, fought Wells because he was a gold demo- crat and voted the republican na- tional ticket at the last election Carter Harrison was elected mayor of Chicago for the third time by a plurality of 2S,257, and the demo- cratic candidate for mayor of Kan sas City got in by plurality of 900 votes. The republicans of St. Louis will likely contest Wells cleo tion on the ground that many ille- gal votes were cast for him. Sever al well-known citizens allege that when they went to the polls to vote, they found that repeaters had al- ready voted their names. The dem- ocratic leaders meet this charge with counter one that fraudulent votes were also cast for the repubh- can nominees. Many arrests have been made, and special grand jury will be empaneled to make an in- vestigation.
