The Harrises Have Troubles

''She threatened to ruin me. She
said that she proposed to scandalize
and humiliate me before the world,
and would get all the property had,
and my salary. too
Henry H. Harris says that his wife,
Alice B. Harris, has pursued him
vindictively. and in answer filed in
the district court yesterday to cita.
tion for contempt he recites the his
tory of the trouble his wife has caused
him. She has kept him going"
he says. He was recently ordered to
pay her tenn porary alimony in di-
vorce case in which he is plaintiff
and he alleges cause why he should
not do So
He says that two years ago he told
her that he could no longer tolerate
her abuse and left her, turning over
all the property he had, including
two rooming houses.
'She said," he relates, 'that she
had read of case in which a woman
pursued her husband, man of means,
until she ruined him financially
Mrs. Harris said she would adopt such
course
The wife sued for divorce, max
ing scandalous charges against her
husband. The jury returned YER
dict of not guilty. He sued for di
vorce but was obliged to withdraw the
case owing to legal technicality.
Recently he instituted another. In
all of these actions he has been obliged
to put up temporary alimony, costs
and attorneys fees. Not long ago
his wife had him arrested on a writ
of ne exeat, although he says he had
no intention of leaving the state.
These proceedings have impover-
ished him, he says, and he cannot
pay more. He states further that for
ten years he spent large sums of
money treating his wife for epilepsy,
which drained his purse.
Harris is bookkeeper, go years Of
age. For many years he lived in
Boulder, engaged in the transfer
business. Denver Post.
Mr.. and Mrs. Harris are both we'll
known in Glenwood Springs aud
throughout Garfield county. They
were residents of this county for many
years having lived both in Rifle and,
Glenwood. Mr.. Harris was the pop
ulist candidate for county clerk and
recorder in 1903 but was defeated by
Paul Blount.

Fined on Four Counts

The Post at the time of going to
press last week was not able to give
the particulars in the Meyer ga me
violation case. 1t seems that Game
Warden Gordon and Deputy Sheriff
Melby Frazier went to Meyer cabin
where they found six freshly mounted
deer heads and mountain sheep head
in Meyers possession.
These constituted two separate
offenses, and then there was the charge
of hunting without license and of
killing two deer when the law only
allows one.
Gordon placed Meyer under arrest
and confiscated the heads which Meyer
claimed belonged to other parties, he
having simply mounted them as a
taxidermist. Judge Hedden imposed
fine of $125. 90 on the four counts and
the costs in the case amounted tc
$38. Is, making total of $161. 10,
which Meyer paid

His Own Medicine

Last Saturday evening as John
Feletti an Italian organizer for the
United Mine Workers of America was
passing the alley in the rear of Mang-
nails saloon some unknown man
rushed out of the alley and with an
oath ordered Feletti to leave town
saying at the same time that there
was no loom in Glenwood for agita-
tors of his stripe. At the same time
the assailant drew gun and beat
Feletti over the head with the weap-
on. Feletti called loudly for help and
attracted the attention of o. Pagnini,
who had walked down the street with
him but who had stepped into Mang-
nails saloon to purchase cigar.
Pagnini who is the official interpreter
for the city and county of Denver is
an Italian himself and at once started
to the rescue of his countryman. He
was halted by Feletti's assailant and
told to seek cover or he would meet
with the same treatment. Pagnini
obeyed orders and returned to Mang-
nails while the slugger continued to
beat Feletti.
When the latter made his escape
and rushed into Mangnall's the blood
was flowing freely from the top of his
head, which upon examination was
found to be badly cut, there being
several ugly gashes which necessitated
32 stitches.
Up to date there is no clue to the
party committing this assault, some
holding to the theory that it was done
by some union man who was tired of
idleness and out OF sympathy with
Feletti's agitation tactics.
Saturday afternoon Feletti attend
ed funeral in company with some of
the local Eagles and it was noticed
that he was intoxicated, and the
members of that order we're very much
disgusted with his conduct The re-
port that the local Eagles were inter
esting themselves in Feletti's behalf
is entirely without foundation as
Marshall Malaby visited him and or
dered him to leave town just as soon
as he was able to travel.

BY HIS OWN HAND
A WelIknown Cattle Creek
RanChman Snuffs Out His
Life with a Winchester.

Despondent because of i'll health.
Jonas P. Sommers of Cattle creek
last Monday ended all by sending a
bullet through his brain. Mr.. Som
mers has suffered for many years from
an illness which was more fanciful
than real-at least the doctors claim
that his ailment was of the nina
rather than the body.
At all events, Mr. Sommers has
been in state of constant fear and
worry over his condition and at times
suffered much from attacks of melan
cholia which his relatives have often
feared might result in self destruction.
Monday morning he arose and after
helping with the chores he sat down
with the family at breakfast and dur.
ing the meal seemed rather more
cheerful than usual. Breakfast over,
Mr.. Sommers started to do the daily
churning but left the work before it
was finished. At the cabin he sat
down upon bed and evidently placed
rifle between his knees and pulled
the trigger with his fingers. The
bullet entered the chin and went en-
tirely through the head scattering
brains and pieces of the skull over the
ceiling.
None of the family heard the shot
but soon after it had been fired,
Claude Sommers, the only son of the
deceased, had occasion to enter the
cabin where a horrible and gruesome
sight met his gaze. The body was
yet warm when found.
Neighbors were quickly summoned
and Coroner Clark was notified by
telephone. He at once went to the
scene of the fearful tragedy but as the
cause of death was plain, no inquest
was held.
The funeral service took place
Tuesday afternoon, interment being in
the Fisher cemetery.
Mr.. Sommers was man of kindly
disposition and generous heart which
made him many friends. His unfor-
tunate condition during the past few
years has brought much suffering and
solicitude to his family who now
have the sympathy of the entire COM
munity in their cad bereavement.

Fort Collins, Colo. March 19.-In
one of the closest oratorical contests
ever held at the Colorado Agricultural
college, the sophomores defeated the

night.
Three of the speakers, Wright. Id
dings and Hend erson, were tied for
first place. but finally the prize was
awarded to Robert ]. Wright of the
sophomore class, on his Grafton en-
titled 1.-THE Power of the Minority, -
and second place to Edward J. Id
dings, whose Grafton was entitled
"Reversal Of Policy of Injustice. F"
Denver Post.
The many Glenwood friends of Gus
Henderson are proud of the fact that
in the first year Of his college life in
an oratorical contest he should SC
nearly defeat the best speakers select
ed by the sophomore class as to tie for
first prize. This is victory of which
Gus and his friends should always
feel proud.

Mabel Morrow Injured

The fourteen -yearold daughter of
Mr.. and Mrs. M. E. Morrow sus-
tained very painful and dangerous
injury last Wednesday evening while
on her way home from school. 1t
seems that the children were return
ing to their home one mile north of
Rifle in light rig, accompanied by
the Plummer children, when the team
became frightened and started up sud
denly, jerking the line out of the
boys hands and running away. Miss
Morrow was seated in the back of the
wagon and in passing over the rough
ground her limb was in some manner
caught between the spokes of one of
the wheels with disastrous results.
The injury was extremely painful and
shocking, her limb being broken en-
tirely off just above the ankle allow
ing the bone to protrude through the
skin four or FIVE inches.
The children who accompanied the
unfortunate girl were quick to sum-
mon aid and soon all the physicians
of town were in attendance. Every
thing is being done to alleviate her
suffering and it is thought that unless
complications arise Miss Mabel will
soon be in fair way to recovery and
that she will not necessarily be rem
dered cripple as result Of the dis
tressing accident. Rifle Telegram.
