HARLEY MCCOY.
Mrs. Moore Engages Attorney and
Will Fight for Money Loaned
Him Before Death.
(Denver Times).

Half dozen prominent sporting
men of Denver friends OF Harley Nc
Coy, accompanied the body of the un-
fortunate man who was killed in the
Durango wreck last week to its last
resting place today. Fred Harris,
Moses Sommers and several other
former friends of the young man ac-
companied his sister, Mrs. Lizzie Ire
land of Kansas City. on the trip to
pay the last tribute of respect to the
dead. The funeral party went out
on the regular Clear Creek district
train at S:05 o'clock, and the funeral
occurred this afternoon at George
town. Had plans for the funeral
been completed earlier, there would
have been a much larger delegation,
fol the unfortunate young man had
many warm friends among the sport
ing fraternity.
Mrs. A. L. Moore of 2603 Welton
street, who claims to have loaned
Mccoy $1100 before he started on the
fateful trip that eliminated in his
death, was denied even the privilege
of looking upon his dead face. to say
nothing of having the body taken
from the undertaken, to whom it had
been consigned on her order.
Harley Mccoy, whose life was a
broken one by reason of his connec
ton with a political fight from which
he emerged with the crime of murder
! at his door, will possibly now repose
in peace in the cemetery at Empire
near Georgetown. But even in death
his body has been the subject of diff
ferences, and the claim against the
railroad company for damages because
OF his death will be pushed by his rel
atives and the woman whose protege
| he has been since his release from
| prison.
When it was reported that no claim
had been made for Harley McCoy's
! body, Mrs. Moore took steps to pre-
vent it being consigned to the pot
ter's field. She wired the authorities
at Durango to ship it to Undertaken
w. p. Horan, and guaranteed the
charges. When it reached Denver
Mrs. Lizzie Ireland. a sister of the
dead man, had engaged Undertaken
McGovern to take charge of the body,
supposing it was being returned by the
railroad company. When 1t arrived
it was consigned to Mr.. Horan. and,
of course, that undertaken took it from
the union depot. being the only per-
son who had the right to do SO.
Mrs. Ireland evidently misunder-
stood the motive of Mrs. Moore, and
went for papers for replevin of the
body. Undertaken Horan hearing of
this and not wishing to be implicat-
ed in any unpleasant notoriety or ex-
pense, telephoned McGovern to send
for the body. 1t was accordingly
turned over to the latter and taken to
his rooms, where it was finally pre-
pared for burial. Mrs. Moores at
torney called on Undertaken McGov-
ern, and after learning as fully as pos
sible the facts in the matter, advised
his client not to attempt to replevin
the body, as. he stated, had been her
intention.

the Belgians OF all peoples on the con

English lady in Antwerp was stoned

STILL OUT. HOD CARRIERS CONTINUE TO DEMAND S2 A DAY. Contractors Having Trouble to Get Men to Take Place of the
 Strikers.

The bod carriers are still out, de- manding S2 per day. They have never been known to receive over. $1 50 fer their services in this city and local contractor said that the bod carriers have worked for as little as $1 per day. The bod carriers now receive $1.50 per day, but they recently held a secret meeting and decided to quit their jobs until the contractors came to their terms. The contractors were never more urgently in need of nod carriers than at the present time. and other labor, which could easily fill the vancancies caused by the strike, is found to be unusually scarce at present. Many buildings are being delayed on account of the laying down of hods, and the contractors are being crowded with new orders daily.

Perpetual Drunk Was
Sentenced for Life

Algernon Dove, better known as
Babe" was in the Police Court again
yesterday for maybe the thous9ndtn
time, says the Arizona Republican. The
last time he came before the Court, the
Recorder. having imposed an ordinary
sentence. told him that the next time
he was brought before him he would
send him up for life. Babe" replied
that he would never get drunk again
in his life.
The Recorder was. therefore ;, as
founded and embarrassed when Babe"
was led in yesterday morning.
A life sentence. under the ordinary
meaning of the expression, was beyond
his Jurisdiction. In fact. he is held
down to the pitiful period Of 1870 days,
yet his work on life insurance, con-
tanning an Expectation Of Life" table,
from which he proved to Babe" that
he could not reasonably expect to live
more than thirty days longer. since he
was already 60 years old. Assuming,
therefore," said the Court. "as | have
a right to assume from this table, that
you will live thirty days longer and no
more. will sentence you to thirty days
in the changing. could give you forty
days and even more. but we would not
want your remains lying around here
We have no place to keep them. Be-
sides. the devil has certain claims upon
you. which we are bound to respect In
| law. II Is true that the devil Is not al
admirable character. but. as much a.
We disapprove of his morals, at the
same time we cannot, without dishonor
withhold from him anything that right
fully belongs to him. II We should dc
so we would be but little better thar
he is. The sentence of this court is
therefore. that you be taken hence ant
placed upon the changing. in which
you shall labor by day. and that 20!

this sentence to be in force for thirt!
days and nights. the natural and rea
sonable remaining period of your life.

MESSAGES TO MARS

New York, Jan. Mot quite two
years ago Nikola Tesla went out to
Colorado to conduct experiments in
relation to the wireless transmission Of
energy, which has engaged his atten-
ton for several years. Tesla founl ii
necessary, in order to carry on the in
vestigations and experiments to the en-
tent he desired, to work at an alti-
ture of seevral thousand feet. He
found conditions suitable for his pur-
poses in Colorado and went there in
the spring Of 1899. built laboratory
about ten miles from Pixies Peak and
went to work. What he accomplished
in the eight or nine months while he
was working there he has kept pretty
much to himself ever since.
He regards the latest results as far
and away the most important he has
ever attained. Briefly, Tesla has been
able to note a novel manifestation Of
energy which he knows is not of solar
or terrestrial origin, and. being neither,
he concludes 1t must emanate from ono
of the planets. While he was conduct
ing the investigations in the Colorado
laboratory one day an instrument he
was using to observe the electrical con-
dition OF the earth was affected in au
unaccountable manner. 1t recorded
three distinct, though very faint, move
,ments, one after the other. These
movements were observed not once
but many times, the number Of i'm
pulses varying, and Tesla now firmly
believes that. with improved apparatus
1t will be quite possible for people OF
the earth to communicate with the in
habitants of Mars or other planets.
