MARTIAL LAW is AT AN END
TROOPS WITHDRAWN FROM SAN
MIGUEL COUNTY, COL.
United States Judge Thayer Orders
President Moyer Brought Be-
fore Him at st. Louis.

Denver, COL, June II. = Gov. Pea
body has issued an order declaring
martial law in San Miguel county at
an end, directing the release of the
troops from duty and instructing
Capt. Bulkeley Wells, in command of
the troops, to turn over to the civil
authorities President Charles H.
Meyer, of the Western Federation of
Miners, now prisoner in the bull
pen at Telluride. Gov. Peabody says
that these orders we're issued before
Wednesday by Judge Thayer, of the
United States circuit court of appeals
at St. Louis, directing that Meyer be
produced before him in St. Louis on
July 5.
Telluride, Col, June 17.-Charles H.
Meyer, president of the Western Fed
Grafton of Miners, who was surren-
dered to Sheriff Rutan by Capt. Bulke-
ley Wells, military commander in San
Miguel county, Wednesday, after Judge
Thayer at St. Louis had granted writ
of habeas corpus for him, is now held
as prisoner in the county jail on the
charge of desecrating the flag. He
said Thursday that the federation
would provide bond for him and he
probably would be released in a few
days.
Pursuant to an order from Gov. Pea
body all troops were withdrawn from
San Miguel county Thursday. Sheriff
Rutan is confident he can handle the
situation.
Denver, Col, June 1.-THE Times
Thursday says that Charles H. Meyer,
president of the Western Federation OF
Miners, will be Immediately rearrested
when released from Jail at Telluride
on a warrant charging him with aid
ing and abetting insurrection in Teller
county and will be transferred to the
Jail in Cripple Creek.
st. Louis, June 17.-Rebuffed in the
courts of Colorado, helpless under the
rule of martial law, the union miners of
Colorado have shifted the scene of bat
tie from the mountains Of their native
state to the federal court here. AS re-
suit they won the preliminary skirmish
Wednesday when Judge A. M. Thayer is
sued writ of habeas corpus. command
ing that Charles H. Meyer, president of
the Western Federation of Miners, for
months held prisoner by the militia in a
"bull pen" at Telluride, Col, be brought
before him on July S. The order was is
sued on the contention that Meyer is
held without due authority of law; that
he is deprived of his liberty as citizen
of the United States and that no specific
charges have been placed against him. 1t
is believed the state will offer battle.
The authorities will contend, it is de-
clared, that the federal courts have no
jurisdiction and that the matter proper
ly should be left to the courts of the state.
If the battle of July 5 goes to the miners
an order for Meyers unconditional re-
lease probably will be issued by Judge
Thayer. All the commands of the court
will be backed up by federal troops from
Fort Logan, if such action is found neces-
sary.

relief as could be given. He said he
would ask ten men of prominence to
serve on committee to take charge or

Lutheran ministers in the home OF Rev.
Mr.. Haas, an appeal to the ministers of

Disaster Most Appalling.
When the dread tale of the disaster IS
fully told-when the last blackened
body has been taken from the burned
hulk and the swift waters of He'll Gate
give up their dead, the catastrophe will
take it's place as the most appalling that
has ever occurred in the inland waters
of America. Definite figures on the loss
of life cannot yet be given. That more
than 500 persons perished Is horrible
certainty. but how much in excess OF
that number the total will run will only
be known when the missing column
Is finished. All during the night and
through the early dawn the sad work
of exploring the Slocum's hull went on
and from dock to morgue the procession
of ambulances. each with it's pitiful
load. wound its way from the river
front to the morgue at the foot of Twen-
ty-sixth street.
Most of these came from the wreck,
but the night-long patrol of the waters
of East river added it's CHASTITY quota.
There are many bodies still in the hold
of the burned vessel, according to the
divers and wreckers. but the river Is
looked to to complete the list. How
many, preferring death by drowning to
the agony Of death by fire, went over the
rail never to rise again, during the mad
race of the vessel for the beach, will
probably never be known, for the treach-
erous waters of He'll Gate do not willing
ly give up their victims.
Unlike the Iroquois theater and
other great catastrophes Of recent years,
where the woe of the disaster reached
throughout the land, the blow of the
Socum's mortality falls practically
upon one little neighborhood of great
city. ST. Marks parish which furnished

heroism which make the one bright

of heroic acts. There we're rescues in
the face of almost certain death, and
useless but exalted self sacrifice. The

A Town of Two inhabitants.

Col Bob Wiley, of Hopkins, who
has been in the West, tells of town
he ran across in the West that had
just two inhabitants, but which, new
ertheless, boosted the possession Of
a post Office and newspaper. The
town was near Pueblo, Col. Gold had
been found near where it was sub
sequently located. The find was sup
posedly rich, and in no time a town
of perhaps 1000 persons was flour
ishing. But the find didn't pan out
as expected, and the town dwindled
away faster than it had been built up.
Soon no one was left save the post
master and the editor of the news
paper. The postmaster was prepar-
ing to leave and the newspaper man
could have done likewise but for the
fact that he had contracted to pub
lish hundreds Of mining claim notices
These notices had to be published
for six months before he could get
his money which was on deposit for
him in a Pueblo bank, and which
amounted to $4,000 or $4,000, the cost
of each notice being $40.
The editor had three months to
publish them before he could fulfil
his part of the programme and get
his money. He did not relish the
idea of being the only man in the
city" located in the mountains" for
ty miles from nowhere" so he offered
the postmaster 500 a month if he
would remain until he could complete
the official printing. The postmaster
accepted the offer and the two young
fellows Cloth single mem were the
sole occupants of the town for three
long months, at the close of which
period they turned it over to the ten
der mercies of the owls and the bats.

The Dimensions of Noah's Ark

Within the last ten years the gen.

closely followed by cargo steamship
builders for deep sea and the Ameri-

to the Bible, the ark was. 480 feet
long, so feet wide and 48 feet deep.
Her tonnage was Alb, and she had
enough rooms for pairs Of all the dis
tinct species of animals that are
classed by Buffon-244-and she could
have accommodated a thousand per

Triumph. Of Modern Surgery.

Wonderful things are done for the
human body by surgery. Organs are
taken out and scraped and polished
and put back. Or they may be removed
entirely; bones are spliced; pipes
take the place of diseased sections
Of veins; a~ntiseptic dressings are ap-
piled to wounds. bruises, burns and
like injuries before Inflammation sets
in, which causes them to heal without
maturation and n one-third the time
required. by the old treatment. Cham
berlain's Pain Balm acts on this
same principle. 1t is an ~antiseptic
and when applied to such injuries,
causes them to heal very quickly. It
also allays the pain and soreness.
Keep a bottle of Pain Balm in your
home and 1t will save you time and
money, not to mention the incOnven-
fence and suffering which such inju-
ries entail. For sale by all druggists.
