Attempt to Rob Train.

Denver, Nov. PA Republican spe
cial from Buena Vista last night says:
Three men attempted to rob the first
section of the Rio Grande passenger
train No. 5, the San Francisco express,
at Gordon, twenty-five miles west OF
Buena Vista, at $3.50 this evening.
They were foiled because the engineer
of the head engine ignored their signal
to stop.
One of the robbers fired at the fire.

let through the latters cap. The rob-
berry was attempted at the same siding
where a switch was misplaced We'd
nesday night, apparently with the in
tention of wrecking westbound pass
enger train No. 1.
When the passenger train neared
Gordon three men appeared on the
track with white light and signalled
the engineer to stop. Engineer Down
ing, remembering the experience few
nights ago, and thinking that an at
tempt was about to be made to rob the
train, ignored the signal. As the head
engine passed the three men one OF
them took a shot at the fireman, the
bullet passing through the cap OF
Fireman Arthur.
AS soon as the passenger train
reached Malta the affair was reported
back to Salida and the sheriff's office
in Leadville was notified. All the
available force in that city has been
sent to the scene of the attempted
robbery.

Denver, Nov. 26.-The Denver Re
publican correspondent at Cheyenne
furnishes the following:
In the recent election in Wyoming
the capital fight as the proposition
to permanently locate the state CAPT
tai was called. overshadowed all other
contests because of the bitter fight
waged for and against Cheyenne, the
present site OF the capitol.
The Republican correspondent has
obtained, through official and private
channels, the official vote cast on the
capital question, and the total vote
cast, with the vote by counties, is here
given, showing that Cheyenne failed to
get the necessary majority to secure
the permanent location of the capital.
The returns also show that no other
town has been successful. and that the
question must be again submitted to
the people, but not until the Legisla'
ture has provided for another election.
If that body has the power to arrange
for another contest
The vote by counties in the recent
election for permanent location of the

FESTIVAL is TO BE REVIVED
Great Denver Carnival to Take Place
at the Time of the G. A. r. Ma
tionai Encampment Next Fall.

Denver Nov. 26.-At a largely at
tended and enthusiastic meeting of the
directors of the Mountain and Plain
Festival Association last night reso-
luton introduced by F. c. Smutzer
that the Board of Directors give q
Festival in 1905' was received with
cheers and adopted by unanimous
vote.
Every one present gave the motion
his hearty support. Assurances were
received from every director present
that he would begin this morning
booming the Festival. Never was such
enthusiasm over the project evident at
meeting of the board.
The proposition came up at a meet
ing of directors to consider the enter
tainment of the Civil War veterans at
the reunion in Denver next year. Presi-
dent G. NJ. Day. representing the com
mittee, which was composed or nm
self, c. H. Reynolds, f. C. Smutzer and
j. S. Temple, reported that an inter
view with General George w. Cook,
past department commander OF the
Grand Army of the Republic, had
proved exceedingly satisfactory Ihe
committee was discharged.
Then Director SmutZer introduced
his resolution. He urged that next fall
would be an extremely fitting time for
the revival of the festival. He pointed
to the fact that the G. A. r. veterans,
the Eagles, the Electrical Engineers
and various other national bodies had
chosen Denver for their place OF an
nual meeting. The visitors, he de-
clared, would want amusement other
than that provided by the show places
and the tourist resorts. The festival,
he was OF the opinion, would fill that
want.
Director Shutters presentation ol
his reasons for the revival of the festl'
val found ready response in the minds
of his fellow directors. AS one man
they decided that the festivities
should again be made feature oil
Denyer's autumn season.

ASSASSINATION

Albuquerque, N. NJ, Nov 27.-Col.

president of the New Mexico Senate
and one of the foremost politicians of
the territory. was assassinated last
night while he sat at supper in Pinos
Wells, a sheep ranch supply station
100 miles southeast Of Albuquerque. h
the center OF the vast Estancia plains.
The accepted theory Is that Colonel
Chaves was killed by political enemies.
as the result of a bitter factional fight
for the election of county officers In
Torrance county. which has recently
been created by the Legislature.
Colonel Chaves had gone to the
range with Louis Trauer Of this city to
buy sheep, and. being unable to finish
his business and return to the railroad.
went to the home Of Juan F. Salas. In
Pinos Wells. for the night.
At Z o'clock, as the party sat at sup
per- shot was fired through the open
window, and the bullet struck Colonel
Chaves at the base of the brain, killing
him instantly The shot was fired
from a point SO close to the window
that the powder was ground into the
glass.
The assassin, who was alone, made
his escape on horseback. Three pos
ses, under the sheriffs OF three coun-,
ties are securing the plains and coun..
try in search of the criminal. No ar
rests have yet been made, but num-
ber of men in Torrance county are
said to be under suspicion as the insti-
gators of the assassination.
Colonel Chaves was reelected to the
Senate, and his entire ticket carried
the county against an Independent Re-
publican ticket. Much bitterness re-
suited from the contest.
The assassination has created deep
feeling all over New Mexico, where the
veteran politician was held in great
respect. If the assassin is caught q
lynching is expected.
Colonel Chaves was the grandson Of
Francisco Xavier Chaves, first COVER
nor of New Mexico under the republic.
He was born in 1888 and crossed the
plains to St. Louis where he received
his education, completing under Ed
ward Delafield in New York. Return
ing to New Mexico in 1S41, he led the
noted campaign against the Navajo
Indians, in which he was repeatedly
wounded. During this period he was
elected member of the Legislature
which he held until his election to
Congress. In 1861 Lincoln appointed
him major in the regiment Of which
Kit Carson was colonel. and which
served in the defense Of Fort Union
and at the battle Of Valverde.
After serving term in Congress
Colonel Chaves was returned to the
New Mexico Senate and elected presi-
dent, position he has held continu-
ously. Although seventy-one years old.
he was still one of the most powerful
forces in New Mexico politics. At the
time of his death he was engaged In
writing history of New Mexico from
the Spanish occupation, under the pat
ronage of the New Mexico Legislature.

As the mountain OF Fujiyama dominates

of Jerusalem commanded the scene far all
around, so we believe God is to be exalted
in this vast community, so as to dominate
it all. The sense OF God is not fading; it
is increasing. To Him we lift up our eyes
as unto the mountains. The church Is to
nourish this consciousness of God, and to
express it in lives OF spiritual power; Oh,
then, how one comes to love the church
when once her real mission is seen. We
ore set 10 invite the world to come to Its
only true home. Wandering hearts, un-
easy consciences, troubled souls, come 10
the home of homes, in Gods great love
and blessed service. Let the gates open
wide. that the multitudes may press lntc
the home of their hearts. Oh. church OF
God, let your faith be large and bright,
that the world may come home. Erect no
false barriers that God would disown and
more and more become home TO the chill
dren of men, through Jesus Christ, the sa'
