wouId-be r,urderer Captured.

John, alias Jack Dillon, the would
be slayea Of Chas. P. O'Neil, has al
last been captured and returned to
the Jail in this city.
The assault was made on the night
of July 30 last year. in the coal mine
at Brookside, at which time Dillon
laid for Night Foreman 0'Neil AM
shot him twice and then made his
escape. In spite of the extraordinary
efforts put forth by Sheriff Hawkins
and under sheriff Simon, Dillon work
ed his way out of the state and all
trace of him lost until some time ear
ly in January, when Sheriff Hawkins
was notified by the authorities in
Alabama that they thought they had
Dillon.
The Sheriff Immediately went to
Denver where requisition papers were
issued, and he proceeded to Mont
gomery, Alabama, where the requisi-
tion was honored. Sheriff Hawkins
proceeded to Jasper, Alabama, where
Dillon was arrested and securely
ironed. He denied all connection with
such crime as attempted on 0'Neil.
and also denied that he was Dillon.
The description and his boasts to his
fellow workmen, were fatal to his
case and he was brought back to
Canon City where he arrived last Fri
day and was at once placed behind
the bars.
On Sunday last Mr.. o'Neil was
brought here from Denver, and Geo.
Snyder from Brookside, for the pur-
pose Of Identifying Dillon. Notwith-
standing the fact that Dillon had
shaved his beard off, both gentlemen
had no trouble in identifying him.
The Sheriif's Office deserves great
credit for keeping up the long search
for Dillon.

Lifted Two RevoIvers.

Some time during last summer,
George W Moody, one of the guards
at the state penitentiary, stole two
revolvers, one the property of the
state, the other belonging to another
guard, A. Stewart. The stolen prop
erty was disposed Of, and a few days
ago the officers were enabled to fasten
the crime. A warrant was sworn
out and George W. Moody was ar
rested and taken before Esquire Nc
Donald on Sunday. Not caring to
try the case that day the case was
set for Monday, February 4. 1901, at
2 p. m, the bond being fixed at $500,
which bond was signed by his brother,
W. F. Moody. On Monday afternoon
the prisoner failed to show up and
the bond was declared forfeited.

Monday, February 4.

1u every town there must be some en-.
ergetic person or society Of persons to
put their shoulders to the wheel in order
to secure the highest form of pleasure
for community. The Columbian Club
composed Of a number Of Audubon la
dies by giving the Slayton Lyceum Bu-
reau large cash guarantee secureda fine
lecture course, and in selling tickets for
the same have given the public an OPP
portunity through their meritorious
efforts to be able to listen to and enjoy
entertainments of very high order.
Such entertainments are Dever had
outside Of large cities unless guaranteed.
In other words the Club ladies have
given the people an opportunity to hear
a course Of entertainments equal to any
had in towns OF from ten to fifteen thou
sand population. This course was book
ed with the idea in mind Of giving the
public the chance to hear some Of the
best lectures touring the state this sea
son and not with the object Of making
m oney for the Club, as they knew, be-
You'd any question Of doubt, that with
very favorable conditions they
would not come out much more than
whole in the transaction. All Of the lee,
lures had in this course SO far have done
honor to the Club. The other numbers
to come are costing double what those
preceding them here.
The Philharmonic Co. OF Chicago. a
high class musical attraction booked
through Minnesota and Missouri this
season had, owing to small pox being
prevalent in the latter state to cancel all
dates and make some bookings through
Iowa. The Clumbian Club hearing this
made arrangements to book this talented
company here one night, Feb 4. They
made diligent inquiries before making
contract and have assured themselves
beyond any question Of doubt that this
is one Of the really fine things to be
heard this season and can cofdently say
that this company will give their patrons
rare musical treat. 1t is not booked
as an extra number to the course but as
an extra attraction of a musical nature,
there being but one musical in the Ly
ceum course.
Seats are selling fast and we can safe
ly predict crowed house to greet these
artists on their initial appearance here.
