HIS BROTHER
SURPRISED HIM

A few days ago l.. M. Miller we'll
known all over this county, was
greatly surprised by the arrival of a
stranger at his home. At first glance
the stranger was unknown, but in II
second he knew it was his brother
whom he had not seen in a quarter of
a century. 1t was his brother Mar
shal Miller, of Bloomer, Chippewa
county, Michigan. The brothers
were never so happy possibly as they
were at the moment of their meeting.
Mr.. Larry Miller had no intimation
of his brothers. coming and the sur
prise was very great. as he had not
thought of seeing him. Marshal
Miller, has been a prosperous farmer
in his native state and has also dealt
largely in the timber lands of that
state. He recently sold out his home
place and some of his holdings in
Wisconsin and determined that he
would hunt up that brother he had
not seen for so many years. Mr..
Millre is introducing his brother
around among his friends today and
seems greatly pleased to have him
with him as his guest.

The event will take place in the
rooms of Mr.. Stewart in the Canon
block ON Tuesday night next and is
being looked forward to by Mr.. Pro-
vost and Mr.. Stewards friends as an
occasion of good feeling and hearty
cheer. Mr. Provost was we'll known
to Mr.. Stewart in the Smoky City, :"
where together in their younger days
they had many good outing. Mr..
Stewart says it is to be an event
which will recall to Mr.. Provost the
character of the young friends he
las met in Grand Junction and he
hopes he will carry back with him on
his return to the east which will be
shortly, the stag affair" as one OF
the brightest memories of his western

ter" IN murder trial, in
'Thlch Joe Harris . being tried before
jury of his peers was i'll no wise
abated yesterday after all the testi-
mony was in for both sides. the de-
tense and prosecution.
Every one was then anxious to hear
the argument before the jury. All
the evidence was in about 3 80 o clock
and then the arguments began.
District Attorney Samuel G. Nc
Mullin opened for the state. He wa
followed Immediately after by Samuel
N. Wheeler, also from counsel for
prosecution and then the defense be-
gan their argument, J. S. Carnahan
opening for the defendant. Hon.
Frank G. Goudy followed for the de-
fense and the argument was concluded
by Hon. Herschel NJ. Hogg for the
state.
During the time of the argument
which continued up until eleven
O'Clock last night the court room was
packed. People stood in every avail
able portion Of the court room, The
line continued out into the hall and
down the stairway of the court house.
1t was almost impossible for some of
those who were even ON the streets to
hear the speakers. save when they be-
came excited in their argument and
then their words were plainly heard.
The character of argument was in
line with the testimony and all those
who spoke did we'll. In fact it would
be hard to find, at any of the bars of
the state more intelligent and able
list of lawyers than is found at this
bar.
The defendant. who throughout the
trial has manifested the greatest in
terest never moved countenance dur
ing the entire trial. not even when
counsel for the state arraigned him
in bitter terms before the bar of pub
lie opinion, calling the deed for
which he was standing trial for his
life, murder. He sat throughout lis
tening intently and scrutinizing the
faces of his judges. the jury, to see
what he could read in their faces.
The case was given to the jury at
about IL p. IN. and the twelve men
who have been listening to every part
of the evidence and who heard the. ar
guments of the counsel filed out from
the court room to perform the work
which the state had brought them to-
gether for and which no doubt was a
most unpleasant task to them all.
Two bailiffs were sworn to take the
jury in hand at the beginning of the
trial. These men were j. w. Dod-
gion and J. r. Falls. These two
men have kept close watch. not
that it was necessary, but because the
law stated that they must, over the
| members of the jury. They have
been together at all times. save when
the court has granted permission. un-
der the escort of one of the two bail
ifs for any one of them to transact
any imperative business.

Horace w. Havens, pomi

Horace w. HaVenS, noml -j..e
democratic ticket for Sc, OF
state. was registered at ii Srown
Palace yesterday. He is baoa from
three weeks campaigning in northern,
eastern and southern Colorado. and
left last night for Glenwood Springs
where he will meet Judge Stimson,
the democratic candidate for governor
and with him address the people at
that point tonight. going thence to
Aspen, where with the gubernatorial
nominee he will speak tomorrow
night. He expects to be out ten days
on his prefont trip. OF the itinerary
just completed Mr.. Havens said:
''Never within my experience has
there been thus far in the campaign
such organization as our party now
has. The managers of our campaign
are entitled to credit for the thorough
ness with which they have prepared
the field for presentation of the cleo
tion issues. Everywhere our meet
ings are we'll advertised and the peo-
pie turn out in unprecedented num-
bers. l have never witnessed cam
paign wherein the voters manifested
more enthusiasm and earnestness.
Senator Teller and former Governor
Adams are being received with partic-
ular enthusiasm wherever they speak.
In agricultural sections where irriga
tion in an important item, the rec
of Don -,
insure them the cordial wecome of
large, attentive audiences. Judge
Stimson is far and away the most tax
ing candidate with the people l ever
knew But comparisons are invfdiou 5
and it would take more time than
have to tell of the magnificent recep-
tions that the voters are giving to our
candidates and speakers.
For illustration at Idaho Springs,
Judge W. S. Decker, w. W. Moan
and Judge Bell spoke Saturday night
last in a large hall crowded so that
standing room could not be had. and
We're interrupted all through their
speeches with cheering and applause.
''At Rocky Ford, the center of the
beet sugar industry, Senator Teller
addressed crowd so large that the
people were unable to get into the
meeting place. many of them standing
around until after the meeting ad-
journed in order to see and shake
hands with the senator.
'"There is no way to look at the
campaign that it did not appear good.
The people regard this campaign
as an issue direct between Teller and
Wolcott, and in my judgement the
issue will be decided by them in favor
of Teller by majority as large as
was given Orman two years ago. -

KILLED and
SHOT TO KILL.

Glenwood Springs, Oct. 17.-Bad
feeling has existed for some time be-
tween Guy Skiff and William Vining.
both of Gypsum, which this morning
eliminated in quarrel over some
cattle owned by the later getting into
the pasture fields belonging to Skif',
who went after them with pitch
fork. Vining put in an appearance,
and after some words between the
two men, it is alleged, that Vining
fired two shots from a revoler at Skif.
neither of which took effect, but
Skiff had rifle with him and return
ed the fire, the bullet striking Vining
in the head and penetrating the
brain. DR.. Hotopp, of Glenwood was
called by telephone but upon arriving
at Gypsum found he could do nothing
for Vining and he died from the
effects of the wound about II 80 this
morning. Skiff was arrested and
taken to Rel Cliff before the death of
the victim. Those within hearing
of the shooting say that Skiff un-
doubtedly acted in self defense.
Another shooting scrape came off
this evening between two men of
Rifle creek. in this county. For sew
eral weeks i'll telling has existed be-
tween August Leiden and George
Wagner, the latter being the lessee of
a ranch owned by the former. Lei
den claims that Wagoner did not live
up to the terms of the lease and he
commenced suit a few days ago of
attachment against Wagner to pre-
vent him from removing a part of the
crops from the premises. and this
morning he met Wagner who was
stacking haye on the ranch. and ord
cred him off. From words they came
to blows and Wagoner got the best of
his antagonist, beating him severely.
Leiden then went to his house and Sc
cured a revolver, took long shot at
Wagner who was about $50 yards
away, but failed to hit him. Leiden
was arrested and charged with assault
with deadly weapon, and was bound
over to the district court in default
of 81 900 bail.
