Sad Christmas for BdSdIt Family

Rev. S. ]. Kester had sad duty to
perform Christmas Day, being called
to Basalt to conduct the funeral of a
young man whose marriage ceremony
he had performed only few weeks
ago.
Ray Trout, fireman on the Mid
land, was the victim of an accident
Saturday afternoon which resulted in
his death that same night. Trout
was in the cab of his engine and
when nearing point midway between
Leadville and Basalt stuck his head
out of the window to signal to a
brakeman on the rear of the train.
He did not see the bridge the train
was approaching and the brakeman
frantically notioned for him to with
draw his head, but before he could be
made to understand, Trout's head
struck the bridge and he fell back
into the cab with his skull rushed
and the brains oozing out. He was
taken to the hospital, but surgical
attention was of no avail. Trout
was 81 years of age and leaves the
bride of few weeks to mourn his un-

penter has provided cast of the
snuggest possible fit. The plot is
simple but exciting. and so clever is
the character drawing, and so deftly
are the entrances and exits handled,
that there is never any perceptible
slackening of interest. They carry
an entire equipment of scenery, not
using any Of the house scenery.
Mr.. Carpenter never ceased in his
persistent invention. his watchfuI in
stinct of comedy and ardent interest
in the piece; nor mas he forgotten to
strengthen the cast splendidly. nor
neglected the costuming and the gen
eral identifying of the ensemble and
the result is highly gratifying. The
story is fascinating one of New
York life and carries the scenes with
swift action from exclusive mansions
to crime haunted novels and a start
ling tale is told with thrilling eli
makes and unique situations. There
is wealth of gorgeous scenery, the
most prominent stage picture being
a brilliant Chinese restaurant with
gorgeous Oriental draperies and the
half hidden apartments in Fifth
avsnue mansion, and the duel scene
in the waves off Government pier, the
realistic incoming of the tide and the
rescue of the fighters by the police.

Wednesday morning, and left for mis-

reason for suspending publication of

awhile when he gets his money all in
