Jim Walker, colored, who killed
Bette Goodloe, colored, at John
sonville about three years ago, was
captured at Paducah, Ky. by Sher-
iff O'Barr Tuesday morning, says
the Waverly Sentinel.
Walker and the Goodloe woman
had agreed to run away together,
both being already married but the
woman wanted to back out, and
Walker called on her at her home
and sat down in her lap and began
talking to her, trying to persuade
her to leave with him, failing in
this he drew his pistol and shot
her to death. He made his escape
IN spite of the efforts of the officers
to capture him, being warned by
his friends of every effort to cap
ture him.
Walker recently has been work
ing on the steamer Warren, run
ming from Paducah, KY, to Cairo
TIL, He was placed in jail by the
Sheriff Tuesday night. Since his
inductionin Office O'Barr hasnever
lost sight of the fact that Walker
was fugitive and has kept his
"weather eye" out for him.

SELLS AND DOWNS SHOWS.

Special excursion rates on all
lines of travel have been arranged
for by the management of Sells &
Downs show, and those who wish
to go to Waverly where this great
circus exhibits Thursday, October
E2,can do SO at very little expense.
This will be the only point IN this
vicinity where the show will ex-
hibitthis season, and no oneshould
miss the opportunity to witness it.
Sells d Downs circus has been the
leading arenic exhibition of Amer
lea for years, but the show has
never been permitted to rest upon
Its regulations. Although itlong
ago passed the point of competi-
tion, every season sees a greater
and grander show.
This years features are entirely
new, and entails the com bined eff
forts of 275 wonderful artists in
the equestrian, gymnastic, equili-
bristic, acrobatic and aerial line
together with thirty famous clowns
and hundreds of esserlights. Two
hundred and fifty horses are used
and a marvellous trained animal
department is presented. The cir
Gus this season is greatly enlarged.
There is gorgeous revival of the
Roman hippodrome races, and
many other stupendous features
in this great circus. Circus day
opens, with a brilliant parade at
1890 a. m. Don't fail to see il.
Perhaps one of the most original
comments, because of it's unusual
and emphatic way of expressing its
approval of the big show, is the
following taken from the Daily
Journal of Hannibal, Mo:
"The promises on the big, fam
ing bills were great, but every
promise was fulfilled, and more.
"The parade, to start with, aston
ished everybody. 1t was immense.
And then the menagerie was COM
plete and there was mo kick COM
ing from.ticket holders. The big
show came up fully to expectations.
TO particularize would require a
page. Every act was applauded.
The Journals advice is, when you
get within reach of Sells & Downs
circus go and get your moneys
worth.''

HOME INDUSTRIES.
Editor THE CHRONICLE:

to time called attention to the ad-
vantages of home industries, and
the benefit derived from them, etc.
Our citizens do not seem to realize
theimportance of theset things, and
the good advice of The CHRONICLE
is soon forgotten.
1t has again and again pointed
out to us the great benefit fnan-
cially we as laborers, merchants,
teamsters and producers would
derive from cotton, pants, broom,
overalls, shirt and canning factor
les, if located in or near Camden
Laborers are plentiful, and indoor
work is the kind of employment
they are all looking for these times.
just think how many hundreds
of dollars is sent away for even
coal here every winter, and the
coal business is on the increase all
the time, when we all ought to
burn wood in our heaters and fire.
places instead of tearing them out
and putting in CRATES or coal
stoves. We have plenty of wood
near Camden, the citizens of Cam
den are offering top prices for
wood, and why is it that timber is
allowed to rot instead of being
worked up into stove or heater
wood? How long has it been, dear
readers, since load of wood of any
kind has been allowed to stand on
the streets on the wagon before it
was "gobbled"'up by the anxious
wood buyer?
Now, why not start with these
small things and go upward until
we reach things that require more
capital?. If we will all do our part
in starting these small industries
the time is not far distant when
the factory whistle will be music
to our ears and transient travellers
will think sure enough that we are
"behind with our hauling"
You have only to go through the
canning factory at Big Sandy to
be convinced of the fact of the f.
nancial benefit of these industries
in any town. Many boys and girls
are employed there, making their
own money to buy their clothing,
dresses andshoes instead of relying
on their parents to probably make
a. sacrifice to supply them with
these things this winter.
You raise yourself in the esti-
nation of thepeople when they find
out you are Industrious, and it is
not necessary for anybody to tell
them for they will find it ont them
selves, and they will also find it
out if you are lazy and no account,
too.
Almost everybody is willing to
admit that Camden is a growing
little town. OF course we have
our knockers" but every knock
they give the town rebounds and
eventually results disastrously to
them. Every dwelling is occupied
andmore people are anxious to re-
move here if we only had the
houses for them to live in.
Camden is a good town educa-
tionally, morally and financially,
and is getting better every day
along these lines. We have good
school here and good corps of
teachers and the interest and at
tendance is growing all the time,
and we trust that the time is not
far distant when we will be com
PEELED to enlarge the Benton Sem
mary building to accommodate those
who want to come to Camden to
school.
Now, let us all put our shoulder
to the "'wheel" and do our very
bestin the future to make Camden

SHOCKING DEATH OF
MINE FOREMAN
F. G. Burns Falls 200 Feet
To Bottom OF Shaft In
Wildcat Mine
DESCENDING SHAFT AT THE TIME

A shocking accident occurred about
IL o'clock Thursday morning at the
Wildcat mine near Santa Rita. by
which F. G. Burns, foreman Of the
mine and one of the best known min
ing men in New Mexico, was instantly
killed Mr.. Burns, from the accounts
of the accident was in the act Of 60
ing down in the shaft. He was in an
ore bucket in the shaft. He was in
ore bucket and had passed the first
station when the cross head, frame
work of timber used to guide the
bucket and prevent it from swinging
from side to side. became caught on
the guides on either side OF the shaft.
The bucket continued downward with
the cross-head suspended in the shaft
above il. Before any warning could
be given of the accident, the cross
head was Jared loose and fell with
great rapidity striking a clamp in the
cable, placed there 10 support the
cross-head. However, the force Of
Albuquerque evening citizen., 1905-08-12

the blow broke the cross-head in two
and one side of it struck the unfor-
tunate man throwing him out of the
bucket. He fell about two hundred
feet to the bottom of the shaft and
his body was horribly mangled by the
terrific impact. Nearly every bone in
his body was broken and his skull was
crushed. From all that can be learn
ed no blame can be attached to any,
one for the accident. 1t was one of
those peculiar unlocked for contingent
cies that sometimes arise in mine
and for which there was no adequate
remedy at hand
f. g. Burns was one of the best
known mining men in New Mexico.
He was well up in his profession and
had the confidence and respect of his
employers. He went to Grant county
from Idan0 Springs, Colorado, about
1896 and took a bond and lease on
the Key mine at Pinos Altos. In 1898
he went to Santa Rita where he be-
came interested in several leases
which he worked till the fall of 1902
when he went to Arizona. He remain
ed there about year and a half work
son, afterwards returning to Santa
Rita and again becoming a leaser of
the company's properties in that camp.
All of last year he was interested with
F. Preston Jones in a lease at Santa
Rita and about four months ago ac-
cepted a position as foreman at the
Wildcat. Mr.. Burns family were not
at Santa Rita at the time the accident
occurred, having left for the Mimbres
Hot Springs the day before. They
were Immediately notified of the sad
occurrence which came as a shocking
blow to them. The family consists OF
a wife, two sons and a step-daughter,
all of whom have the deep sympathy
of the entire community in their hour
of great trial. Deceased was aged
about forty-ive years and was of a
modest unassuming disposition. He
was a man of the greatest integrity,
and of sterling worth and his death is
not only a distinct loss to the Her.
mosa company for whom he was work.
ing but to the entire community at
large. No arrangements have yet
been made for the funeral as yet.

The ONLY MAN

There is no way to maintain the
health and strength of mind and body
except by nourishment. There is no
way to nourish except through the
stomach. The stomach must be kept
healthy, pure and sweet or the
strength will let down and disease
Will set up. No appetite, loss of
strength, nervousness, headache, con.
supation, bad breath, sour risings
rifting, indigestion, dyspepsia and all
stomach troubles that are curable are
quickly cured by the use OF Kodo

you eat and strengthens the whole

The Coming of Jimmy Durham.

The Coming of Jimmy Durham.
The admirers of Jimmy Durham
will be able to greet the doughy Kan
san here on Moday night. He leaves
Great Bend, Kansas, on Sunday and
will arrive here just in time to enter
the ranks of the Browns within the
rules of the fair tOurnamet which
make it necessary that all players Of
contesting teams must reside within
the 7ity they represent by August Is.
We can no: forget what magnificent
ball Durham handed out hero ls st fair
and his second coming will be cele-
bdated in ptoper manner.
Jimmy Durhams base ball career
has 0een a trifle meteoric, his ad-
yanCement has been meTled by his
ability to deliver the goods. Four
years ago Jimmy was playing amateur
bail at lis rome lowI Eldorado,
Kansas. The KaTsas City Blues used
him some three years ago and the fol-
lowing year signed him for the season.
So good was his showing last year
| that Kansas City signed him again
| this spring. During the season Dur
| ham had an offer from the st. Louis
| Nationals, but was unable TO secure
! his release from the Blues. Kansas
| City played a loosing game right
/ along and this made Durham all the
more sore so he jumped the Blues and
went to the Kansas State league,
| where he has been playing brilliant
! ball the past two months.

The suggestion of the Charleston
Gazette that c. NJ Wetzel member of
the house Of delegates from Jefferson
county, would make a good candidate
for Governor on the Democratic ticket
next time, Is not bad idea at all.
During the deliberations of the pres
ent session Mr.. Wetzel has risen head
and shoulders over the heads of his
Democratic colleagues Unlike some
of his more favored Democratic compa-
triots, there is no installing his at.
titude upon any public question. He
does not dodge important roll calls,
he does not vote for proposition one
day and against it the next; in other
words, it is evident he pays more at
tention to the merits of pending legis-
lation than he does to personal expe-
diency. He has been consistent
advocate OF the taxation OF coal, oil
and gas as proposed by the tax COM
mission, and for a railroad commis-
sion In short, he is always with the
people and against the lobbyists and
grafters The Democratic party of
this State stands in need of leader
of that type, and it would be we'll to
turn the banner over to Mr.. Wetzel.

I'VE handle all kinds of remedies

The Legislature.

The West Virginia Legislature laet
week could not muster a sufficient
number of votes to extend the regu-
lar session. The Democrats opposed
the extension, for the reason that
they had not had time to consider the
appropriation bill, and as their vot s
were necessary, the extension failed.
As soon as Governor White ascer-
tanned that there would be no extern
sion, he called special session OF
the Legislature, which convened Sat-
urday at noon. The only business 1t
was called to consider was the APP
preparation bill.
Both houses passed bill provid-
ing for a salary grab-that is, the
members voted themselves mileage
for the extra session, though not one
of them travelled one mile extra to
attend it.
We do not know whether the Leg
islature adjourned yesterday or not,
no news having been received from
Charleston this morning.
