Real Estate Sales

Several hundred acres Of land in the

been sold this week by the Julesburg
Land company. AT the time Of going
to press IL is impossible to give "A de.
tailed description of the lands sold
and the consideration in each trans.
fer, as only part OF the papers have
been filed for record in the county
clerk 5 Office. However, few OF the
deals closed might be mentioned.
They are:
w. +. Miller, lGO acres; p. b. Upson
100 acres: j. p. Duncan, 100 acres;
l.. L. Loveland, iMoEs Joenson place.,
l23 acres: Mrs. j. b. Martin, 40 acres;
a. S. Chute. 20 acres.
Several other sales have been prac-
tically closed and detailed statement
OF these will be published next week.
The purchasers of this land were
capitalists from Denver and Eastern
Nebraska. and we understand that it
is their intention to get in settlers for
the land and have each parcel well
improved and cultivated.
In the amount of business done this
week the Julesburg Land company
has certainly demonstrated the fact
that they are splendidly equipped for
handling the real estate business.

TELEPHONE NO. 10.
Negro Dope Fiend Uses A Gun.

Last Saturday morning, about 1870
o'clock, John Thompson, coal HEAVIER
who had been employed in the coal
chutes here for three or four days, be-
came involved In q quarrel with
Martha Vogel, negro washwoman,
over the possession OF bottle OF
whlskey, and fired four shots at her
with a 100 Winchester rifle. The
Vogel woman was not hit, but John
Brown, stonemason, who WAS work
ing at the Brown hotel about two
hundred feet from the scene of the
shooting, was wounded in the right
thigh by one Of the bullets from
Thompson's gun. While Thompson
was shooting at the Vogel woman, the
latter was following him with an axe,
trying to get close enough to strike
him with it. She seemed to have no
fear that any Of the bullets would hit
her.
After the shooting Thompson walk
ed to the kitchen door Of the Brown
hotel and inquired as to the condition
Of the man he had shot; he then went
to the house Of Charles Spencer, fore
man OF the coal chutes, where lie had
secured the gun. Here crowd Of men
had gathered and three OF them-Sid
HuDtlay, ]. P. Krum and A. J. Hart
ley-grabbed the gun, which the ne
gro still carried, and after hard strug-
gle succeeded In taking it away from
him. Thompson then run into the
Spencer house, secured another Win
chester, which fortunately was not
loaded, came out on the sidewalk and
snapped the trigger twice at Mayor
Wallace, who with others was trying
TO take the gun from him. Several
men, headed by Mr.. Wallace, Mr.
Huntley and Marshal Twomey, then
rushed upon the frantic negro. dis
armed him, loaded him into Fred
Tenders dray and took him to Jail.
In the afternoon Thompson was ar
raigned before Justice L. E. Reich
upon the charge of attempted murder.
At the trial the facts as recited above
were established by the testimony of
Martha Vogcl, Thompson's intended
Victim, Sid Huntley, J. P. Krum. W.
II. Brown, W. II. Wallace and A. j..
Hartley. Thompson, when asked il
he had anything to say for himself,
stated that he did not try to kill the
Vogel woman, but simply shot at her
to frighten her into returning to him
the bottle Of whiskey which lie claim
ed she had taken from him.
District Attorney Pound asked that
Thompson be bound over to the dis.
trict court in bonds of 100000, and
this WAS dune by Jus tice Reich. Fail.
ing to furnish bond, Thompson was
taken to the Sterling Jail Sunday morn.
ing To await the convening OF the dis
trict court, probably sometime within
the next eleven months.
Thompson, the fellow who shot one
man and placed the lives OF several
other people In jeopardy, is a full
blood negro; and is as villainous look.
ing as h umun being could well be.
He is a cocaine tend, and Saturday
morning before he started upon the
rampage had attempted to secure a
prescription for this drug from encl.
s Of the local physicians. Failing to Sc
cure cocaine, lie had evidently filled
up ON whisky and in this condition the
taking Of human life seemed trivial
