as an instance. No western rider
would so far forget the danger of los
ing his race as to infiict cruelties upon
his horse. but the society made pro-
test which compelled the abandonment
of the race, the President himself be-
ing called upon by the society to re-
quest that the race be stopped.
Chicago is the rival of New York for
the forthcoming contest, and it is IA
vored by many, because it is believed
that the city authorities will not inter
fere, even at the behest of the Society
for the Prevention of Cruelty to An
imals.
Members of the festival board are
quoted as saying that they will put up
all necessary expenses to have the con-
test in some eastern city, but will not
expend another cent for contest In
Denver. 1t is believed that a contest
held in either New York or Chicago
would be a paying venture, and New
York City can secure it if it can insure
the contest from interruption.

stopped and gun and cartridges were
handed to him by Tony Jones, who
then got into his buggy. The officers
were close behind, and when Jones PAL
no attention to their demands to halt
they fired, inf1icting wounds from
which he died in about two hours
The triple tragedy caused great ex-
citement and the streets were thronged
with people many of whom evidently
expected that there would be further
trouble. The saloons were closed and
kept so during the night. This meas
ure tended to keep down the excite
ment and prevented the congregation
of those engaged in discussing the
affair, and probably checked other
trouble as consequence of the diver
gent views of the friends of the dead
parties.
Will Harris is in Jail, but has not
been talked with, hence his reason for
the shooting is not known. Jim Har-
ris is still at large, but the officers are
after him with warrant.
Mr.. Jordan had only recently been
appointed city marshal to succeed
Marshal Jett, who was recently shot
down on the street. He was a popu-
lar man and a good officer and his
friends are very much wrought up

acting in his official capacity. He was

f Texas 6ltU Marshal Killed WhlI6 TAKING a
Prisoner to Jail.

ORANGE, Tex, Nov. I0.-As the re-
suit of an unknown grievance held by
Will Harris against Felix Chenault,
three men are dead The trouble
started yesterday afternoon, when Will
Harris, who has only recently returned
to this county, walked up to Chenault
and emptied both barrels of a shotgun
loaded with buck into him. Chenault
fell dead in the floor of the saloon
where he was standing.
Harris ran through the saloon and
almost into the arms of City Marshal
Jordan, who was coming through that
way on hearing the shooting Jordan
started with his prisoner to the Jail,
but he never reached it, being shot
down within 100 yards of the building.
Who fired the fatal shot is not posi-
lively known. After the shooting of
Chenault there was other shooting, and
for a brief time it sounded like bat
tie was in progress. All the bullets
went wild and no one. was hurt by
them.
When the city marshal fell Harris
jerked away and fed to residence,
where he took refuge. Sheriff Rob
ertson had him in the course of short
time, and he was taken to Jail and
locked up. A brother, Jim Harris.

THE WIFE FORGIVE
And the Erring Woman with her
Little Daughter accompanied
the fOrgiVinQ Woman to
her Home.

AKRON, O., Nov. 10.-With the aid
of the police last night Mrs. John
Slavin of Toledo, located her husband
and Mrs. Vina Gambey, wife of a
neighbor in Toledo, at the Frankfort
hotel in this city, where they had been
living for some time. Slavin is
bridge contractor. He and Mrs. Gam
bey were taken entirely by surprise,
and the woman shriekdd and moaned
as they were taken to the city prison.
With her in her cell was her 4-year-
old daughter, big, golden-haired doll
of child, who kept company with her
mother in wailing distressfully.
In police. court today Slayin and
Mrs. Gambey both pleaded guilty and
were fined the costs. The reason for
the light fine was that in Mayor
Doyle's private Office reconciliation
had taken place prior to the trial.
Il know that I've done wrong"
Mrs. Gambey pleaded, and upon her
promising to give Slavin up entirely
it was his fault. Mrs Slavin said she
had discovered that Mrs. Gambey had
left home suddenly, and as she could
not find out where she went, she
guessed the rest Mrs Gambey and
Mrs. Slavin returned to Toledo to-
gether. Mrs. Gambey has a husband
and two older children there. Both
women are of prepossessing and re-
fined appearance, and are said to be
well connected. Slavin will remain
here until he finishes erecting a $25, 900
bridge.

MITCHELL WILL OPPOSE
SHhUEL 0OMPERS
Possibility that the American Fed
GRAFTON OF Labor mau Change
Leaders at next Convention.

WASHINGTON, D. c.. Nov. TO-
There is a possibility that President
Samuel Gompers of the American Fed
Grafton of Labor will not be elected to
succeed himself at the forthcoming
convention of that organization, which
will meet in New Orleans on Thursday
next.
President John Mitchell of the United
Mine Workers of America, the leader
of the "Tndustrialists" faction OF the
Federation, faction that is made UP
of several of the largest affiliated la
bor bodies, and stands for the merger
OF all the smaller organizations into
the larger ones, is President Gompers'
most formidable opponent for the pres
idential honors.
The Industrialists' faction is made
up of the miners, the carpenters and
the printers, the brewers and the
plumbers, with several smaller organ
izations. In brief, they contend that
it will best serve the interests of the
federation If the pipemen, firernen and
engineers in the coal fields are taken
in by the miners organization, and the
smaller unions disbanded. In the
same manner the carpenters desire to
absorb the woodworkers and the
carvers
This question of merging will be
bitterly fought out in the convention.
President Gompers is unalterably op-
posed to 1t.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Nov. 1O.-Now
that the political complexion of the
Fifty-eighth Congress is settled, the
contest for the Speakership to succeed
David B. Henderson has begun. Ac-
cording to the general opinion ex-
pressed in Washington, three Repre-
sentatives loom up as possibilities,
Joseph G. Cannon of Illinois, Joseph
w Babcock of Wisconsin and Charles
E.Littlefield of Maine Of these Mr..
Cannon is thought to have the lead.
There. will be more new chairman
or important committees to be named
in the next Congress than for many
years. The contest for the Speaker
ship will on this account be exciting
and fiercely waged.
Mr.. Cannon will have the devoted
following of the "old guard" and those
Representatives who make up the
leadership of the present House. and is
regarded asthe strongest candidate.
Representative Babcock will enter
: the new House with many supporters
from the west and the prestige of hav-
ing won victory for the Republican
party at astima when success was a
d1ulcult thing to achieve. He. too. will
have following from the older mem

In spite of the overwhelming ma
jority Mr. Smoot appears to have in
the legislature, there is prospect that
a strong fight will be made on him by
the members of his own party. AL
though they anticipate defeat in the
legislature, they desire. to go on record
and to submit this record later to the
Senate in case Smoot succeeds.
There is a movement under discus
sion, headed by prominent Republi-
cans, to revive the old Liberal or Anti
Mormon party which disbanded when
Utah was admitted to the Union. The
anti-Mormons are in majority in Salt
Lake and other counties, but their ac-
tion has not been concerted, while the
Mormon church can swing it's follow
ers one way or the other and decide an
election, as it is charged was done in

The Republicans may profess Ella

hold the House with most off-year
precedents against them, but, after all,
considering the recent decentralization

a Republican defeat at this time would
have been much more ominous than
the usual off-year defeat of the party

President going the most remarkable

SALT LAKE, Utah, Nov. TO-
Apostle Reed Smoot, who is declared
to be the candidate. of the Mormon
church for the United States Senate,
today gave an interview on polygamy.
Although he denied that he is a poWg-

today that an unwritten law of the
church exists requiring any person to
be polygamist in order to be an
apostle. Only three members of the
quorum Of twelve apostles are not
known absolutely to have more than
one wife Apostle Shoots father had
five wives.

CHEYENNE, Wyo., Nov. 10.-Prose-
cutting Attorney StolPs condition is
much improved today, and he will be
ready to argue against the melton for
a new trial for Tom Horn tomorrow
morning. The delay in considering
the motion has enabled the attorneys
for Horn to secure alleged new reasons
why the motion should be granted. One
of these is a claim that the jury was
not properly isolated, and that on sew
eral occasions jurymen heard remarks
by outsiders of nature that would
tend to create in their minds a feeling
antagonistic to the defendant. Affida-
Wits to that effect have been made by

that there is no law in the world that
does not bear heavily sometimes upon
some innocent people, and that it may
be doubted whether the strongest ap-
peal for mercy is not rather for the
protection Ct society, the honor of the
church and the saving of souls, even
at the cost of momentary sacrifice from
the positive commission of grievous
sin. But after all the more notorious
cases are in the class of people blatant
ly defying the best public opinion,
evading the provisions of the soundest
law, utterly reckless of all religious
obligations and bent upon using their
wealth and social place to force their
recognition in society, in spite of their
violation of the laws of God and man" T"

Most of these specimens were sent to

Speaking of the animals to which the
bones belonged, Mr. Menke said they
probably were members Of the class
known as amphibians, or possibly a
few of them primitive reptiles. The
amphibians constitute a class OF an
imals now represented by frogs, toads
and salamenders. The extinct bones
were much larger however, than those
of amphibians now living. If one can
imagine a frog as big as an OK he
will have some idea of the appearance
of these prehistoric monsters that once
