informed a Tribune man that after
he had given the matter due consid-
Grafton and feeling satisfied that his
hat had been taken in mistake-or
otherwise the Woolf card party,
he took pencil and paper and figured
out who was the guilty man. The
result of his calculations was that
some republican,, some state admin
istration, non-repentent, strenuous,
rough riding, hifalutin, deep dyed
in-the-wool republican, was the ap-
proprietor and his final deduction
placed the blame on Harry w. Lee.
For years Mr.. Lee has borne spot
less reputation for honesty, probity
and other sterling qualities, but last
winter he was appointed assistant
sergeant-at-arms OF the Colorado
lower house, then his fall was OF the
tobogganing order. His language has
assumed unique picturesqueness and
his imagination is so VIVID that he
is a JOY to his neighbors. All Of
these are praiseworthy, but in the
matter Of property rights he is get

TALK IT OVER
COUNCIL DISCUSSES ELEC-
TRIO ROAD FRANCHISE.
Special Meeting Held Saturday
Evening to Act upon
Request of George
]. Spear.

meeting Saturday evening to consider
the franchise for an electric railway
asked for by George j Spear. Mr..
Spear presented the framework Of
the franchise, which was discussed,
picked to pieces, put together again
and then referred to the judiciary
committee of the council to arrange
franchise which would we salts
factory to the council. There were
but few points of differences between
the councilmen and Mr.. Spear and it
is not likely that any difficulty will be
in the way of arranging franchise
that will be satisfactory to both
parties. The committee will report
at the next regular meeting OF the
council, Tuesday, October 20.
The line as proposed by Mr.. Spear
has already been noted several times.
1t is contemplated to run out through
Pleasant valley, to take in Eaton and
Ault, also the Black Hollow country
and up to Windsor to connect with
the Colorado and Southern railroad
there. One branch of the line is to
run through Evans and LaSalle, up
through the Godfrey bottoms and
into the Hillsboro country, and from
there into the St. Nrain valley
through Highlandlake down into the
coal country about Erie. The county
commissioners at their last meeting
granted permit for the use Of the
county roads for right Of way for
the line. The Evans city council
has already granted the franchise to
run through the streets Of that town.
The part of the line that it is pro-
posed to build first will be the Pleas.
ant valley branch and the one run
ming through the Thompson and St.
Nrain valleys. These lines will
meet at the main station, which will
probably be located between Fifth
and Sixth avenues and Ninth and
Twelfth streets, and on the property
owned by the one time proposed G.
C. railroad. A spur is to be run from
there out Fifteenth street to the sug-
ar factory. From the station north
on Sixth avenue, the Pleasant valley
and Eaton line will run to the city
limits. This will be combination
freight and passenger line.
Coming in from Eaton and connect
ing with the Pleasant valley line at
some point north of the city line
will come in on Eleventh avenue to
Seventh street. thence to the corner
of Eighth avenue, and south from
there to Fifteenth street, where it
will run over to the station. 1t is on
these streets and avenues that fran
chiSe is asked.
A part. of the plan is to utilize..the
waste steam from the power plant to
furnish heat for buildings and resi-
dences.
Negotiations are being carried on
with large electrical supply house
OF St. Louis for the building and
equipping OF the lines. A repre-
sentative of this company was In the
city a few days ago and was favorably
impressed with the PROJECT and is

KICKED BY A HORSE
Captain 0gilvy Has Leg Broken
BY Ugly Animal.

Tn ursday afternoon between | and
, O'Clock Captain Ogilvv drove from
his ranch to the LaSalle postotfice for
his mail. After transacting his bus
iness he got into the buggy and
started for home, but as he was
turning the horse, she let fly with
her hind legs and soon had the
buggy's front into kindling. During
this performance the captain was
struck between the knee and the
ankle Of the left leg by one of the
hoofs, the blow breaking the tibia.
He also received a bad puncture near
the fracture. which at the time
caused uneasiness, as blood poisoning
was feared. DR.. Pogue of this city
was summoned. and assisted by DR..
Book ofeDenver, who was a guest CT
the house, the fracture was reduced
and the necessary bandaging made.
1t is thought the accident will con-
fine the captain to his home for some
time, but nothing serious is appre-
hended, as he Is man OF vigor and
health.
The kicking brute is one of two
vicious mares bought in Denver last
summer. During his handling Of
them the captain had every reason to
suppose they we're becoming amenable
to. kind and gentle treatment and
even now he is disposed to attribute
the accident to some unknown cause,
though what it was he cannot even
guess.

NARROW ESCAPE OF THREE
WOMEN FROM DEATH.
Explosion of Gasoline Stove En-.

Two Escape through

Three women had a narrow escape
from being burned to death from the
explosion Of gasoline stove in their
rooms In the Boomer block last
Thursday evening. Only the pres
ence OF mind and almost heroic efforts
saved them.
Mrs. Catherine Smith occupies
apartments in the mentioned block,

per OF this, near the door, was par

. kitchen. In this Is gasoline
stove, used for preparing the daily
meals. Thursday evening about 5
O'Clock Mrs. Smith emptied the con-
tents Of the gasoline can into a small
pitcher, then poured the fluid into
the stoves reservoir. A match
was then applied to some Of the gas
oline, as 1t was time to cook supper.
While waiting for the gas to gener-
ate, flame suddenly enveloped the
stove and surroundings. The cur
tains went up In flash, the wall
paper caught fire, as did everything
else of a combustible nature In prox-
unity to the stove, and in very
short time the room was filled with
smoke, flames and the strong odor Of
gas.
Mrs. Smith, Mrs Meads OF East
Greeley, and Mrs. Clarence Shumate,
daughter OF Mrs MeadS, were in the
room at the time, sitting by the
windows and chatting. They made
an effort to escape through the door,
but the flames drove them back.
Now thoroughly frightened, Mrs.
Shumate and Mrs. Meads opened a
window and stepping out on to the
cornice they edged along for ten or
fifteen feet to window that opened
into Mrs. Edwards room and enter
ing this they gave the alarm. But
Mrs. Smiths age and intirmities
prevented her from using this avenue
OF escape. To stay was to risk
horrible death, but the doorway was
now enveloped in roaring furnace,
the draft from the open window IN
creasing its force. She then deter
mined to make a dash for 1t through
the doorway, and did, out she was
badly burned in the effort. Her
face and the top of her head were
blistered, while her hands suffered
the most, as she covered her face
with them when making her escape.
The other women 1sceived bad burns
about face and hands, but nothing

Mrs. Smith is most careful in the
handling of gasoline and this Is the

HERMANN NOT FAVORED.
Cincinnati Magnate Paid Nearly S..
600 for Daily and Dolan.

FROM the Cincinnati Commercial Tribune.
While there are no developments in the base
ball muddle, 1t is a safe guess. however.
that the opposing sides are not idle. This
Is particularly true perhaps. of the Ameri-
can League. which, while 1t has not had
much to say. has. no doubt. been preparing
itself to fight for what 1t believes it's rights
The only startling news which reached here
yesterday from the National League head
quarters was that President Pulliam had
played golf to steady his nerves. which
leads to the belief that the man of the
hour would hardly be able to stand I'D
very long under the strain brought about

Incidentally Mr.. Pulliam was quoted as
saying that he was willing to Leave the
Davis case to Sir Thomas Upton or any
other fair sportsman for arbitration. which
shows his extreme shrewdness for Mr..
Upton, not having the slightest idea about
base ball. would probably decide with rim.
The Impression seems to exist among GER
tain OF the eastern magnates that President
Hermann is an American League sympa-
thizer. and when that fake story Of the
twelve-club league conference between him
and Johnson was sent out this belief vas
strengthened. That the deal which brought
Daily and Dolan to Cincinnati has been MIS-
construed in this connection is also most
probable. Perhaps so. Mr.. Brush and so,ua
of those who have chosen him as their
leader believe that this deal was made to
reward President Hermann for the favors
he has shown the American League.
The fact of the matter is that the local
club spent not great deal less than 5000
to secure those two players. The trouble
with the magnates seems to be that they
can not believe that an honest man has
broken into base ball. The methods Of
some of them have been so shady for these
many years that the movements Of Herr
mann are questioned by them In course Of
time these gentlemen may be made to re-
alize that the Cincinnati club is for the Ma

best amateur games Of the season.
The Brentwoods started the run-getting

RELEASING PLAYERS.
Padden and Mccormick to Be Let Out
by st. Louis.

A special from st. Louis says that unless
something unforeseen occurs two new faces
will appear on the diamond in the uniform
of the ct. Louis Browns within the next
two weeks. Magnate Hedges and Mana
ger McAleer are disguised with the lack Of
swatting ability of several members of the
team and these weaklings will be replaced
by artists who can find the ball.
While the management has issued no Of
fetal statement 1t is known that Dick Pad
den and Barry Mccormick have incurred
the displeasure Of the powers and are
slated to be bounced. 81.
1t is positively known that the two men
for whom Hedges and AcAleer are dicker-
ing will be played in the positions occupied
by Padden and Mccormick. but their names
are being kept secret.
The newcomers are at the top Of the list
and are far superior to the men they will
succeed. The proposed change has been
carefully guarded and the base ball world
was in entire ignorance of 1t until today.
