fcal Crime That Eycr Dark
 ened Annals of Colorado.
 CRIPPLE GREEK. Colo, Nov. 23.- Sheriff Robertson, after Investigating conditions in the sixth level of the Vindicator mine, where Superintend- ent Charles Mccormack and Shift Boss Beck were killed by an explosion, CO., incides with the statement of the off cials of the company that a deliberate attempt was made to wreck the shafi with dynamite. Phe executive com mittee of the Mine Owners and Op- erators association has offered re ward of $5.o00 for evidence leading to the arrest and coifviction of the per petrators. Tn a published statement the committee says:
 '4The killing of Superintendent Me Cormack and Melvin Beck was one of the most diabolical crimes that ever darkened the annals of Colorado and is another step in the trail of blood which has been made by the Western Federation of Miners in this state.
 "The time has passed for selecting fine terms in which to speak of these matters, and we do not hesitate to say that this crime was devised and exc cuted by the inner circle of this or ) ganization.
 ''This statements.is made only after a careful investigation of the facts, 1 which show conclusively that these men met their death through scheme so cunningly devised and carefully ex- ecuted as to tax the ingenuity of the most experienced criminal
 ''Of late the district has been filling up with the class of men who openly boast of what they propose to do. Not a single circumstance surrounding this crime is compatible with the theory of accident and with any other theory than that of premeditated murder" The district executive committee of the Wesern Federation of Miners char acterfzes the explosion as "Iamentable accident regretted by alf' and adds: "But prejudfced individuals who rare Iy know anything of what they talk about have already passed judgment and denounce it as cold blooded mur- der. Experience teaches, however, that some people are not above making cap- 1tal out of any misfortune"

The Latest Street Craze.

The latest local craze is the shoestriRg watch fob. Since it invaded New York, not more than couple of weeks ago, It has caused the sale of about 1000, 900 shoestrings. And still the demand ex- ceeds the supply. The fobs do not come ready-made--you make them yourself by braiding together two shoestrings, which ought to be of sharply contrasting colors.-N. Y. Times.
