ty, Missouri, for Ira Oldham, twenty
three years old, now under arrest at
Colorado Springs and wanted in Char
iton county for violating the age of

granted pardon to Fred Shockley,
sentenced to one year from Fremont
county for involuntary manslaughter.
Shockley is colored man. The par
don was issued on a petition signed by
the trial judge and many prominent
people OF the county.
Governor Peabody refused to issue
extradition papers for William Fazon,
the wealthy gambler who is wanted In
Seattle on charge of grand larceny,
and who, according to Deputy Sherif
Wilson, who came to Denver to arrest
him, was involved in gigantic swind-
ling scheme, whereby, through crooked
roulette wheels and brace" faro
banks, several prominent citizens OF
Seattle were mulcted OF large sums OF
money. The governor found defects
in the extradition papers.

yuma Ditch Company contests the

claims that 1t is entitled to the site.
The case was appealed to the State
Land Board for hearing.

Rollins took Il day off, and went to
the Canyon last Tuesday. Claude
says that while he and Rollins were
attempting TO climb II precipitous
cliff and had assembled half way up
the almost perpendicular wall. that
Mr.. Rollins was almost in the notion
OF showing his wisdom by initiating
the coon, which voluntarily came
down from a high tree to save Davy
Crockett the trouble OF bringing him
down with his unerring rifle. The
application was probably drawn
from the fact that Mr.. Rollins when
about halfway mp the wall almost
lost his balance, which, had he done
so, would have resulted in fall
through space for several feet. Claude
says that he got so high up from
Mother earth's surface that it seem
ed like certain death anyway and
decided, like the coon, to come down
at ~ 2:4O pace and end the suspense,
only changing his mind in time to
avert IN awful tragedy.
