three small children and then drank

suicidal intent because she was de-

MURDER OR sUIcIDE7
Suspicious Circumstances Surrounding
Death of Victor Official.

NJ w. O'Connell, former marshal
Of Victor, Colo, game TO his death
Saturday evening by falling from
forr-story window in the rear Of the
Markham hotel in Denver.
There is doubt as to whether
O'Connell met with an accident, COM
mitted suicide, OF was murdered. The
police hold to the suicide theory, on
the ground that an accident would
be almost impossible, as the window
in the toilet room from which O'Con-
nell fell was not open more than two
feet The friends of O'Connell de-
clare the dead man was murdered,
as he was seen not more than ten
minutes before his death and at that
time was in a cheerful mood. They
declare that he had many enemies
who would not hesitate to kill him.
Against this theory is the fact that
none of his enemies have BEEN seen
in the neighborhood of the hotel and
there is no evidence of struggle.

But she kept her own counsel, and

This was not what Katherine

down the box-bordered walks together.
When they reached the river bank a
boat rowed by with two English sol
diers, stopped just below them, and
lay rocking on her oars. Then an Off

Into Creek.

Mrs. Lima Chambers, of York, Neb-.
and Mary Renkes. the 12-year-old
daughter of Charles Renkes Of Boul-
der, Colo, were drowned in Boulder
creek Thursday. They were part OF
a party camping in hummer gulch, six
miles from Boulder Without any
warning a wall of water, caused by a
cioudburst, came rushing down the
gulch. carrying the tent and the in
mates into the creek. Some of the
campers were thrown upon rocks or
to the opposite shore Of the creek.
Mrs. Chambers and Mary Renkes
were carried into the stream by the
torrent of water and drowned. Their
bodies. badly bruised, were found
some distance down the stream later.
The storm which caused the cloud

mining camps on Sugar Loaf noun
tain and in the neighborhood of Ward.
At the latter place the ground was
covered with hail to depth OF six
inches.

Decisive Battle Between Russians and
Japanese Hourly Expected.
A dispatch from st. Petersburg says.
General Kuropatkin's report Of small
shifting movements by the Japanese.
with a single unimportant skirmish,
bringing the military situation up to
Aug. 4, is just what has been expected
by the authorities here 1t is believed,
however, that the lull in the fighting
has lasted about as long as possible
and that forces around Lao Yang
are now on the eve Of a desperate and
decisive engagement. The pause Of
the past few days is believed to have
been long enough to enable the Jap
anese to assume their formation, bring
up supplies and make ready for
grand assault upon the powerful po-
sition girding Lao Yang, and the bat
lie of the war is hourly expected to
occur. An issue of such importance
momentarily eclipses interest in the
siege of Port Arthur. The fate of the
latter place is not likely to influence
the immediate destinies of the cam
paign, but Lao Yang is closely tied
up with the fortunes of the whole war.

Fast Train Dersiled and Number of
Persons Injured.

The Meteor, a fast passenger train
on the st. Louis & San Francisco rail-
road (the Frisco system), from Dali
las for st. Louis, was derailed near
vinita, l. T. The engine, baggage car,
mail car and two chair cars left the
track. Several persons we've injured
but no one was killed.
At the time of the accident the
train, which was half an hour behind,
was running at the rate of thirty-five
miles an hour. For some unknown
reason the tender became uncoupled
from the engine and turned half way
around, crossing the track. The cars
following, with the exception of the
Pullman sleeper. went into the ditch.
The Pullman left the track, but re-
manned upright. The injured were
cared for in the sleeper.

CHAPTER III.
Joy in the House.

'Honored gentleman, when will you
pay me my money!"
The speaker was an old man,
dressed in black coat buttoned to the
ankles, and a cap,of silk and fur, from
beneath which fell a fringe of gray
hair. The inquiry was addressed to
Capt. Hyde. He paid no attention
whatever to it, but, gayly humming a
stave of "Marlbrook," watched the
crush of wagons and pedestrians, in
order to find a suitable moment to
cross the narrow street.
"Honored gentleman, when will you
pay me my moneys?"
The second inquiry ELECTED still less
attention.
Il do not wish to make you more
expenses, captain" and Cohen, follow
ing the impulse of his anxiety, laid
his hand upon his debtors arm. Hyde
turned in a rage, and flung off the
touch with a passionate oath. Then
the Jew left him and walked slowly
towards his store and home.
He soon recovered the calmness
isfactory interview with Capt. Hyde.
"a wise man frets not himself. for
the folly of fool" and, having come
to this decision, he entered his house
with the invocation for its peace and
prosperity on his lips.
Soon there was a little stir in the
street-that peculiar sense of some
thing more than usual, which can
make itself felt in the busiest thor
oughfare-and Cohlen went to the
door and looked out.

to anchor-Capt. Batavius de Vries.
There was quite a crowd on the

job on the cargo; others. again, not
averse to a little private bargaining
for any curious or valuable goods the
captain OF the Great Christopher"
had for sale.
Joanna Van Heemskirk had had a
message from her lover, Capt. de
Vries. and she was watching for his
arrival There was no secrecy in her
love affairs, and it was amid the Joy
and smiles of the whole household
that she met her affianced husband
They were one of those loving. sen

to predict 4 placid and happy life. and

Professor Says.

Chicago, Feb. l. According to re-
port submitted by Dean George E. Vim
cent to President Harper, Of the Univer-
sity of Chicago, the experiment Of
segregating the sexes in the junior college
work during the past year has been a sue
cess. Dean Vincent in his report says;
"Unofficially, various instructors who
have taught the classes exclusively for
men and women have told me that from
their experience they believe segregation
is goin to work out as an edcational and
social success.
"The girls and boys do not have any
chance to look at one another and be dis.
tracted in their classroom work." said
Prot. Clark Chandler, who has taught
segregated Latin classes. 81 did favor
co-education and voted against segrega-
ton, But must gay that as result OF
the year r'Simpresslons l am now convinced
that segregation is better. In my classes
there has been better concentration and
the students have accomplished more
than before segregation"
