Two More Teachers Resign

Miss Mae Keehl and Miss Rodkey,
who We're employed as teachers in the
Glenwood public schools, have both
resigned. While this occasions no
surprise to those familiar with the
situation, it is extremely unfortunate
and an especial hardship to our schools
cellent teachers and their resignation
at this late day is greatly regretted.
The school board will make the best
selection possible from among the ap-
plicants not yet employed although it
is doubtful if the vacancies can be
filed before the opening of school.

FELL FROM HORSE
SHOULDER BROKEN
Murray Wiley Hotel Glen.
wood Bell Boy SuS-
fdinS Severe
Injuries
IS TAKEN TO RED CROSS HOSPITAL
AT SALIDA for x-RAY
TREATMENT

While riding horseback Wed nesday
morning Murray Wiley, bell boy at
Hote. Glenwood, had the misfortune
to be thrown from the horse to the
ground sustaining broken shoulder.
He was taken to Mr.. Richardson 8
house and from there removed to Mrs
Elliott's rooming house where his
mother and sister live, Physicians
We're called, who upon examination
found that the shoulder bones were
crushed and at first it was thought
that his leg was broken at the ankle
but the injury proved to be but se-
vele bruise. 1t is supposed that the
horse stumbled and fell upon the boy
after he had struck the ground. The
accident occurred near Ninth street
and Blake. The boy was sent to the
Red Cross hospital at Salida on the six
clock train Wednesday evening in
order that X rays could be used to To-
cate the broken bones in the shoulder
as it is believed there are more than
one broken.
Murray has been working at Hotel
Glenwood for several weeks and was
we'll liked by everybody. 1t is under
stood that the larger portion of his
earnings was saved, going to his
mother who is employed at the Troy
laundry and his sister who is in Glen
wood for her health. All his friends
hope that his injuries will not prove
as serious as they appeared to be as it
was the opinion of the physicians that
they might cause permanent deform-
ity,

TRAIN ROBBER
IS IDENTIFIED
John Ring Recognizes a
Photograph as Like
ness of "Tdp"
DUNCAN WAS SUSPICIOUS CHARAC-
TER WITH DISAGREEABLf
TRAITS---FEW FRIENDS

All doubts as to the identity of the
dead train robber who was killed in
attempting to escape from the posse
in pursuit of the bandits who blew up
the express car on the Denver 81 Rio
Grande neal Parachute last June
dissipated by the positive identified
tion last Sunday by IA man who knew
him in Des Moines. Iowa and Waco,
Texas. John Ring, of Des Moines
who has been in town for couple of
weeks, happened to be passing the
Waters photograph gallery Sunday
when his attention was attracted to
the photograph of the dead man in
the window. He at once recognized
the picture as "A likeness of Tap
Duncan, whom be had often seen in
Des Moines and in Waco. Mr.. Ring
states that he knew Duncan as man
who was an habitue of gambling re
sorts and follower of the country
fairs in Iowa and says he was consd-
cred suspicious character, although
he knew of no crime that Duncan
committed. Duncan was disagree
able sort of fellow and had but few
friends, being possessed of unfortun
ate domineering qualities which
brought to him feeling of antipathy
from people who might otherwise
have been called his frineds.
Ring says that the name Tap"
was nickname given Duncan on ac-
count of habit he had of raking in
the pot in poker games. Duncan, af-
ter stalking all the money he possessed, +,
if anyone called his bet, would snatch
the pot regardless of whether or not
he held the best cards and it was Tor
this reason that card players gave him
the nickname TAP, meaning "A
man who would tap the pot.
Ring first saw Duncan IN Waco,
Texas, about three years ago and the
last time he saw him was at the state
fair in Iowa two years ago this month
after which time Duncan came west
and never returned to his old haunts.
The theory of the Pinkertons, there.
fore, that the dead man was Harvey
Logan is effectually disproved and the
Denver 81 Rio Granle detective $
claim that the man was not Logan
but Tap" Duncan, is conclusively
proven and much credit is due to Off
GERS Brunazzi and Brown for their
work in establishing the identity of
the man. Rings identification was
Independent of the work of the detect
ives and therefore adds to the weight
of evidence already gathered by the
detectives.
The remaining two bandits, whose
whereabouts are at present unknown,
are still being hunted and 1t
is expected that before many weeks
they will he discovered. Mr. Ring,
however, does not have any idea who
Duncan S companions were as he has
known nothing of Duncan since two
years ago this month.

Copper-Producing Districts.

MT. Walter Harvey Weed, in a recent number of the Mining Mag azine, gives the following interest ing facts: The production of me- tallic copper in the United States for 1903 was 69S,044,517 pounds of a value of $91 ,5O6,OO5. In 1902. A per cent, or about 2S9.O00, ,0OO pounds, were produced from an area mile long and one-half mile wide, at Butte, Montana; 26 per cent, or about 126. 100000 pounds, from strip of country two to six miles long, extending through the center of Keweenaw Peninsular, Michigan; and IS per cent, or l30,- 100000 pounds, from four isolated districts in Arizona; of the remain ing 12 per cent the greater amount comes from Bingham, Utah; Kes- wick, Cal, and Ducktown, Tenn. The gold and silver mines of the country, notably those of Colorado, contribute about per cent of the total production, which is obtained as by-product in smelling for the precious metals.
 Of the six largest mines in, the world four are in the United States, the Anaconda mine of Butte itself furnishing one seventh of the entire worlds supply of copper, and the Calumet and Hecla nearly one- eighth.

COSTS BIG MONEY
The Enormous Cost of Running
 a National Campaign

While it is said to have cost onlr two hundred thousand dollars to elect Abraham Lincoln in 1864, four times that sum was spent in
 the Hayes-Tilden campaign in 1876, while in 1888, with tariff as the issue, two million dollars was said to have been used by both sides, and the figures have mounted up ward since in some of the later campaigns. It might not be with out interest at the outset, there fore, to dwell upon some of the items which go to make up these expenditures, and to consider first what is called by some the ''legiti- mate campaign expenses. The cost of maintaining national headquar- ters, with it's army of employees ranging from forty to one hundred men and women, has been esti- mated to be about three thousand dollars day. There are stump speakers who receive one hundred dollars week and expenses. The distribution of single speech in printed form has cost as much as five thousand dollars, and there have been campaigns when twenty of these speeches have been deliv- cred and circulated New York and other cities have had torch
 light processions costing as much as twelve thousand dollars, while three thousand more have been ex- pended on a single mass meeting for the music, decorations and hire of the hall But these are only the minor items of disbursements. The heavy ones are made out of the secret emergency fund. Both sides are continually drawing from it, and usually exhaust it on the eve of election The fund is used to turn the tide in states that are considered doubtful, specially those on which the general result hinges.

CLARK'S ENORMOUS INCOME.
Drew Check for $90O,OOO Every
 Month to Build Railroad

New York, Oct. 15.-The Com mercial says: Apropos of that news item in the Commercial the other day to the effect that Senator Clark and E. H. Hartman are joint own CTS of the San Pedro, Los Angeles and Salt Lake railroad, Tom Me- Gill, erstwhile of Butte, Montana, said: "It may be of interest as showing how enormous are the for tunes of our American multimill- ionaires, to tell you people in the east a fact that is we'll known in Montana, for Senator Clark him self is authority for the facts, and he told it to me, with others.
 Ever since work was begun op that road Senator Clark has drawn on the first of every month a check for S9OO,O00, to be applied to con struction. There is nothing re- marka ble, of course, in that, but there is the further fact that the $9O0,000 was a draft on his income account alone, not one dollar of the sum having been drawn from his capital account.
 "He told party of us one even ing that when the road was com pleted it would be finished without taking a single cent of his capital, and that he had not started work on it until he had figured out that he could build it from his income account alone. The income from his mines and other enterprises will have paid for it long before he turns it over to the company that is to own and manage it.
 Ut is pretty hard to say that this is without parallel in the railroad history of the world. Other men may have been able to build short roads in this way, but, so far as l know, there is no record of such an achievement. But it is pretty safe to say that there is no other road in the world of it's length and actual cost-the former about five hun dred miles and the latter unknown to me-that has been built by one man from his private income"

THAT RABBIT STORY
It Was All a Mistake---Bagged
 Four Fine, Fat Deer

During our absence on a hunting
 trip last week in the hills and can
 yons about the Bar Cross ranch
 southeast of Williams the remain Ger of the NEWS staff tried to job or josh us little. In the last NEWS 1t was predicted that the largest an- imal we could or would kill would
 be a jack-rabbit. We'll, we killed
 the rabbit all right. and something besides. On Wednesday of last
 week the writer got the first deer
 brought into camp. It was run ming some and we were riding a
 horse at the time We fired six shots, two of which took effect, which would seem to indicate that we could sometimes hit moving object. Thursday Ralph Morrow killed his first. We didn't see the fun, but Heaton said Ralph had a standing shot-in fact he had four. at the deer before he bagged him or it moved. Friday morning Heaton got his. We were riding down ridge when one showed up. Heaton and myself were riding and after a couple of chance shots alighted. While the writer held the horses Heaton lined up on the side of the canyon and we heard him exclaim: ''You son-of a gun, if you come up that side you're my meat" We'll. the deer showed up and Heaton made good. Morrow showed up, too, little later. in time to help hang the buck in tree, and it was a tough job for all three..
 Saturday morning, with our host. Herb Yoder, who had made our stay at his headquarters most pleas ant and did all man could do to make a fellow enjoy himself, we started for town. After about two miles had been traversed two fine bucks jumped up beside the trail and regular bombardment. fol- lowed. Yoder and the writer each landed a bullet in the same buck, but the other got off without a scratch. Herb took that one back to camp and a new start was made. It was agreed that Harvey Filing ton would bring in the four veni- sons Sunday in a wagon, but he failed to show up till Monday.
 We didn't get mad because the force joshed us about the rabbit we've seen people who couldn't even hit one of them. However, we heaped coals of fire on their heads by giving one a tail and the other a right hind foot of the biggest jack rabbit ever killed on the mountain. There are times when silence is golden. In this case silence would have meant deer meat; but we can josh, too, hence the boys have to eat rabbit.
 The weather was fine and the country abounds with deer, our party having seen no less than fifty. They are hard to shoot, how ever, as the whole country is GOV cred with heavy underbrush, where it's a case of now you see lem, now you don't.

and immense fire places abound. Indian eurios and trophies of the chase are used in the decorations.
 One of the most novel features is the solarium; should the day hap pen to be chilly this is just the place for sun bath. In the spa cious amusement room are billiard and pool tables, shuffie boards and other means of indoor enjoyment The so. called rendezvous, similar to the lounging room of a country club, is pleasant spot where friends may meet informally and compare notes of the days sight seeing. The main dining room (3Sx90 feet) has log walls, a rough board arched ceiling supported by great log trusses, and two stone fire places. On each side are private dining rooms Many of the bed rooms are en suite, with bath. Hot and cold water, steam heat Gin sea- son) and electric lights are gener- ously supplied. The cuisine is Harvey's best; every one who has travelled on the Santa Fe knows what Harvey quality is.
 Fl Tovar is to cost more than a quarter of a million dollars. No money has been spared to get the most up-to-date equipment possible Take the item of furniture: it is all from special arts and crafts designs, combining use and beauty.
 Among the minor comforts may be mentioned telephone in each room with direct office connection. There is not a room in the house where the sun fails to enter at some period of the day.
 The protection against fire is very complete, the reserve supply of water in the steel tank being 125.O00 gallons. The plant fur nishing heat, light, power and water IS far enough removed to be unobjeetionable.
 There are stables and corrals where horses and teams are kept for trips along the rim and down to the river. A search light has been ordered, to light up the wierd canyon depths at night.
 Adjacent is Hopi house, built of stones and adobe, exactly repro ducing one of the unique dwellings of the Hopi Indians. In this pie turesque structure will live several families of Hopi weavers and pot ters, plying their strange handi- crafts. A museum of rare Indian curios will be installed and photos sold.

NEAR 10, 900 KILLED
Railroads Kill More People Than
 Did the War With Spain

The interstate commerce commis- sion has completed its annual bull letin, showing the number of peo- pie killed and hurt for the year on the several railroads of the United States. There were 9,9S4 people killed, more than double the loss of life in the war with Spain, and in excess of any year previously. Of those hurt there were IS, PAT, most of whom received more or less serious injuries.
 The report does not give the num- Der of cars and engines wrecked, but the number of the former will reach into the thousands. An officer of the commission, discussing the bulletin, said:
 "The railroads are certainly kill ing them. The increase annually is regular, and is growing with the extension of the railroads and the population.
 eve have received reports from England, which are as remarkab ble as the killings here. Approxima te- ly the English have less than 5O,0O0 miles of track to our 100000, yet they do a greater per mile business than we do. They haul more pas sengers than we do, yet there was not one passenger killed last year"
 The interstate commerce commits sion figures that 7S,152 persons have been killed on railroads in the United States during the last ten years.
