The convIcs's Daughter.

Needs no apology, for it is the equal in
construction Of many a melodrame that
has enjoyed long lease Of life. The
story is trite one OF rascality and inno-
cence. "The Convict's Daughter"
which will be seen at the opera house.
Dec. 9th, is said to be one of the heavi-
est productions on the road as to the
number OF people, scenery, electrical and
mechanical effects carried. The theatre
scenery is said to be set aside and nothing
but that carried by the company used
This piece has won merit,d praise where

unique in the melodramatic line, which

This preparation is doing more to
bring the name of Lamar to the notice
of the outside world than any other one
thing. The fact that such really good
medicine can be made and marketed
from such a small town makes people
think that all the talent is not con-
tanned within the portals of large east
ern cities. A druggist in Denver speak

Quinine made the following remark
Good medicine? Well should say 80,

SHERIFF FRANK TATE SHOT
While In Pursuit Of Robbers He is
Severely Wounded.

while In Pursuit OF WooOofS no u
Severely Wounded.
On Saturday morning Sheriff Tate
and Under Sheriff Frisbie started
south from Carlton to trail the gang
of robbers that had held up Post
master Frybarger. The gang had
also later in the night broken front
window of Noble & Bottoms hardware
store at Granada and taken two shot
guns and a rifle, leaving for the south
after taking considerable pains to
cover their tracks. There were three
of them and they had been
killing range cattle and selling the
meat for over a week. They had a
spring wagon, bay team aud an
extra saddle pony.
Tho officers found the trail and fol
lowed it to the dinner station on the
stage line south Of Lamar, and
camped there for the night. Sunday
morning they started out again and
had only gone about three miles
when in riding down gulch they
ran right on to two of the robbers,
who were evidently waiting fer them
and of course had the drop on the
officers. They ordered the officers
to drop their guns, but commenced
firing without giving them show to
comply. The second shot broke Sher
if Tate's right arm just above the el
bow and caused him to drop his gun.
The robbers then turned their atten.
ton to Frisbie but failed to hit him,
although his borse was shot and seri-
ously injured. The robbers after Sc
curing Tate's rifle started rapidly for
their home in the cedsrs.
Mesers. Tate and Frisbie returned
to the dinner station, where Tate re-
mained while Frisbie made a quick
ride to Lamar after assistance. Drs.
Hasty aud Fewkes started at once to
render assistance to Sheriff Tate and
several posses were organized to go
after the robbers. Word was also
sent to Las Animas and the u ranch
and Carrizo, and it WAS hoped that
the robbers could be surrounded.
They evidently reached their head.
quarters in the cedars, as word was
received from the Lamar boys last
night that the spring wagon was
found there as we'll as two men and a
woman. All of these were sent to
Las Animas and the search after the
gang continued. No definite news has
been received, but it is believed they
will capture the gang as they are all
determined men and we'll acquainted
with the country.
Sheriff Tate was brought to Lamar
Monday afternoon, and that night
taken to Denver by Dr. Hasty to have
an operation performed. Word was
received yesterday that the operation
was successful, and the arm would be
saved, although on account of large
portion of the bone of the upper arm
being shot away, reunion of the
bone is improbable.
There never was a more popular
or efficient officer in this part Of the
state than Frank Tate, and he has
the sincere sympathy of the entire
community in the great misfortune
which has befallen him, while per-
forming his duty as public official.
As an officer he is fearless and long
residence in this section has made
thoroughly acquainted with all the
county, and much feared by the law
breakers.
