The jaguar and a polar bear occu-

Then, to keep the jaguar and bear from
escaping from the cage, he threw rocks

car and, during the efforts of the circus
men to drive the animal into another
cage, Bennett received his injuries.
The animal was finally driven into

jaguar again leaped for liberty. He
dashed through the tunnel, but upon

CAR. COMMANDER DIES
WORK OF GEN. BLAckMAR ENDED
succumbs to Fatal Disease at Boise,
Idaho, While Engaged in Visit
ing G. A. r. Departments.

Boise. Idaho. July 17.-Gen. w. w.
Blackmar, commauder-in-chief of the
G.. A. R., died at o'clock yesterday af-
ternoon Of intersti.ial nephritis. His
wife was with him during his illness.
The body will be embalmed and taken
to the home of the family in Boston.
The general arrived here on the 10th
on a tour, during which he intended to
visit Grand Army posts throughout the
Northwest. He was i'll when he ar
rived and gradually failed. The SER
iousness of his condition was kept
from the public at the request of his
wife.
General Blackmar was born July 25,
,1841. at Bristol. Pennsylvania. He en-,
listed in the Fifteenth Pennsylvania
cavalry and subsequently joined the
First West Virginia. He served with
distinction throughout the war and at
Five Forks was promoted on the field
by General Custer to the rank of cap
tain. Throughout three administra-
tions, those of Governors Long, Talbot
and Rice. he was judge advocate gen.
eral Of Massachusetts. At the last ma
tional encampment of the G.. A. r. he
was elected commander-in-chief.
Boston, July 17.-Except to two or
three officials of the Grand Army the
news of the death of Chief Blackmar
was received with great surprise in this
city. The home Of General Blackmar
was in this city and since his elevation
to the position of chief commander the
headquarters of the organization have
been here.
General Blackmar is succeeded by
John r. King of Washington, senior
vice commander.
Two weeks ago the commander-in-
chief broke down and was ordered to
his bed in his summer home at Hing
ham by his physicians. At the time his
indisposition, however, was regarded
as slight.
On July 9th General Blackmar's con-
dition apparently improved and it was
decided to permit him to continue his
visits to western departments, which
had begun early in the year.
Assistant Adjt. Gen. E. B. Sti1lings,
commander of Kinsley Post No. 113, of
this city, of which General Blackmar
was member. will leave Boston to-
day for the West. He will assist Mrs.
Blackmar in arranging for the funeral,
which probably will be held in this city.

LIVE STOCK EXPOSITION.
Planned by Colorado Cattle and Horse
Growers Association.

Denver. July ia movement was
set on foot yesterday which is ex-
pected to result in an annual gather
ing of stockmen in Denver from all
parts of the West, for the purpose of
holding a live stock exposition in
which will be shown in competition
fat cattle, hogs and sheep and feeder
cattle and breeding stock of all kinds.
A meeting of prominent and repre-
sentative stockmen was held at the
stock yards yesterday morning in re-
sponse to a call issued by the Colo
RADIO Cattle and Horse Growers Asso-
citation. 1t was unanimously decided
to hold a big stock show here next
winter. probably in January at the
time of the national and state con-
ventions of stockmen meet.
Senator E. NJ. Ammons, president of
the Colorado Cattle and Horse Grow
ers' Association, was made chairman
of the meeting and Fred P. Johnson
secretary. Senator Ammons eX.
planned the object OF the meeting.
He pointed out the fact that Colorado
and the West could make the best
meats the world knows. but that only
recently have the stockmen attempted
to finish their own stock. For years
a necessary requirement for fattening
cattle. In late years a few pro-
gressive stockmen have been expert
menting in feeding roots and other
grains and with wonderful results.
There are enough engaged in feed
ing now to make most interesting
exhibit. But both the stockmen and
the public need educating. The stock
men want an opportunity to compare
notes and results in feeding and the
public wants to know what constitutes
the best meats. A live stock exposi-
tion would interest everyone and all
would learn something.
President Aylesworth of the Agri-
cultural College expressed approval of
the project and promised that the
college force would assist in every
way possible.
Professor Carlyle, dean Of agricul-
ture at the college, also expressed op-
proval and suggested that in addition
to fat stock and feeders. there should
be arrangements made to exhibit
breeding stock.
General Manager Ballantine of the
Stock Yards Company, President Geb-
hard Of the Colorado Packing Com.
pany, General Manager Boettcher of
the Western Packing Company and
other stock yards people expressed
the greatest enthusiasm over the pro-
ject. E. H. Grubb. John Grattan. John
Welch and other prominent stockmen
spoke in favor of the proposition and
by unanimous vote 1t was decided
to hold the show. next winter.
A committee was appointed to pre-
pare detailed plan to submit at an
other meeting to be held at the stock
yards on next Saturday morning. July
22d, at 10 o'clock. The general COM
mittee appointed consists Of the fol-

she had gone supposedly to visit
friends, and found her at a rooming
house with Mexican with whom she
had become infatuated.
He did not rebuke her, but left for
his home. In a frenzy of despair she
hurried to her home, and on the way
passed her husband who was returning
to Los Angeles to file suit for divorce.
When Hall returned he found a note
written on the back Of a piece of
calendar. The story OF the woman's
remorse was plainly shown in the note
and she told her husband she had
