pulled ont by the car wheels and
brake rolls
Tom Tucker, OF Del Norte, WAS
riding between the cars when III.

some hours later the regular down
tram was met at the scene of the
wreck by special from Alamosa
and the baggage and mail trans

At the regular monthly meeting of the
county commissioners held on Monday
they appointed Robert n. Lewis county
clerk and recorder to succeed the late
j. S. Updegraff. 1t was hoped that the
commissioners would see fit to appoint
Mrs. Updegratf to the unexpired term,
but too much political pressure was
brought to bear and political appoint
ment ma lie. There were several appli-
cants, among others being n. D. Owen,
d. 81. Allen, Charles Stout and many
others. On the informal ballot Stout
received one vote, Lewis Land Mrs. Up
dograff l. On the formal ballot Lewis
received 3 and Mrs. Updegraff l, Com
missioner John c. Jenkins, the Demo
cratic member, voting for Mrs. Upde-
graft both times.
Mr.. Lewis is the only son of Hon. w.
j. Lewis and wife, and was born in Ne
vadayiile April 6, 1872. He has been
prominent in Republican circles and
was a candidate for this office three
years ago but was defeated. OF the Re-
publican candidates before the commits
sioners, we believe that he was entitled
to it by ali odds. He is young, but has
popular mans place to fill.

The OBSERVER one of his truest friends.
Mr.. Updefratf had his faults but they
were outweighed by the nobleness OF
his generous heart, and his many kind
acts will atone for any faults. He was
one who had many friends, and kept
them, although of determined char
acter. He was true friend, and never
forgot one, believing that gratitude was
one of the greatest OF mans attributes.

MASSACRE STORY EXAGGERATED
Indications, However, that Many Have
Been Killed at Salonica.

London, May 4.-Owing to the exist
ing censorship it is still impossible to
obtain reliable news from Salonica.
The news of a general massacre there
probably is exaggerated, but the
statements that several hundred were
killed. emanate from several points,
including Constantinople, where it is
alleged that Turkey has decided to
send an ultimatum to Bulgaria. Two
Italian warships have arrived at Sa-
lonica, and the porte, fearing that for
eisn troops will be landed, has re-
quested Austria to withdraw her
squadron.
1t is reported from Uskub, European
turkey, that the Turks are holding
meetings in the mosques and discuss
ing general massacre OF the Chris
tians in Uskub.
