don line. Mr.. Bedor came to early mass
at the church Notre Danes des VICTORIES
and hitched his horse opposite the church.
When service was over he found the team
gone. Thinking the horse might have
broken away and perhaps gone to W. N.
Nute's barn, where he is kept through
the week when Mr.. Bedor is employed at
the scale shops, he went to Mr.. Nute's
for information. The latter said be had
recently seen the rig driven by a boy
who told him his father had bought the
horse of Mr.. Bedor. Mr.. Mute asked the
boy if he would trade horses, but the boy
declined to trade. Deputy Sheriff Wor-
then was given the case and traced the
team up towards Four Corners and in
the afternoon caught up with the boy
near the Lyndon line who surrendered to
the officer. The runaway was Chesnev
Stanisles, a 11-year-old boy living in
Paddock village who has attempted to
run away several times before. At the
hearing Monday morning he was bound
up to the June term of the Caledonia
county court in the sum OF $50. Bail
was furnished.

The Apollo Male Quartet.

The closing number in the Epworth
League Entertainments course, next Tues.
day evening, will be one of the best OF the
season, and every one will want to hear
this popular and artistic quartet.
The Portland, Me-, press has this to
say of the Quartet work: "The voices of
the Quartet are fine, and the owners be-
come great favorites."
The Boston Herald says: "Mr, Del
mont's voice is of most delightful clear
quality and was more than adequate for
the requirements of his Aria, "Why do
the Nations?" "Mr. Kendall kept the
audience in gale of laughter"
Do not forget this concert company is
an all star combination, every one an
artist OF most excellent merit, and they
will render a program that will be very
pleasing to their audience.
Remember Mr.. Kendall is with them.
and you are afraid to laugh stay away.
But if you enjoy good, clean humor you
cannot do better than go to Music Hall
on Tuesday evening and here him with
the Apollo Quartet.

Making Scales in the West.

1t was announced by the directors of
E. & T. Fairbanks & Co. at the annual
meeting of the stockholders held here
last May that arrangements were being
perfected for the taking over and utiliz-
ing of large scale factory in Moline, ILL.,,
owned by the corporation. This factory
is now being operated by E. & T. Fair
banks & Company. ]. A. Kittison, the
superintendent of the Moline plant, is
here this week and arrangements are be-
ing made with him to transfer a portion
of the work from here to that factory.
Three of the largest railroad systems in
the west have tracks connected directly
with this plant, thus saving all trucking,
and the Moline factory is much nearer
raw material and more centrally located
as distributing point.

STOCK MAN SHOT.
Wounded by Wouid-bc Assassin While
Repairing Fences.

Denrer.-A Republican special from
Greeley Thursday says: Tom O'Neill
the well-known stocllman, living at
Gault. forty miles north OF here, was
shot in the leg to-day by an unknown
party in ambush.
ONeill was some miles from his
ranch. repairing his fences in a lonely
section. when he was startled by a
shot coming from the underbrnsh near
by. II was followed by four Others in
quick succession, one of which caught
O'Neill in the leg. infiicting a severe
wound. O'Neill, though badly Grip
pied, managed to reach his horse and
rode to his home.
Considerable feeling exists between
O'Neill and other ranchmen of the
Gaut section who allege that O'Neill
has fenced certain government lands
on which are the only watering places
for stock for miles around, thus pre-
venting range cattle from getting wa
ter O'Neill claims he owns the land
fenced and that his fences are con
stantly being broken down in revenge
by those who do not respect his rights.
Perhaps no region in Colorado re-
tains the characteristics of the West
as it was thirty years ago more than
does the Gault country Great herds
of cattle feed there and cowboys ride
the range. 1t is alleged that Il bitter
feud exists between O'Neill and others
and there is danger of a serious out
break at any time which may involve
the whole ncighborhood.

MINISTER DISGRACED.
Attempts Suicide by Leaping Under
Moving Train.

'Chicago-The Rev Justin NJ. Wade.
pastor OF the First Congregational
Church of Waukegan, Illinois, who
was arrested by postoffice inspectors
for sending obscene letters to boy,
attempted to commit suicide Thurs
day by throwing himself in front OF q
train on the Chicago & Northwestern
railroad. His injuries did not proye
Immediately fatal.
The train was fast passenger
which had slowed down slightly pre-
pfAatory to the stop at the Waukegan
depot. The minister rushed upon the
track and when the engine was about
twenty feet distant threw himself lat
upon his face. He was struck by the
pilot of the engine and hurled many
feet to one side of the track A large
crowd of people was on the depot plat
form waiting for the train, and the at
tempt at suicide was made in plain
view of them all.
Mr. Wade was conveyed to the hos
pital where it was announced that he
had a chance for recovery, although
the probable outcome of his injuries
could not be predicted. .
Church circles of Illinois have been
shaken as never before by revelations.
which within the last three days have
wrecked the careers of three of the
most prominent clergymen of the state
Rev. Justin NJ Wade, Congrega-
tional; Waukegan, Illinois; sending
obscene letters.
Rev. George II. Simmons, Baptist;
Peoria, Illinois: bank Wrecker and sui

Rev. Joha NJ. Chattin. Episcopalian:

home for boys. Several of the boys
were called to secret conference. and
they openly accusedGhattin of serious
crimes. Tie facts were reported to
bishop Anderson and the accused man
resigned.
Then followed the suicide OF the

TO COERCE CHINA
WAR DEPARTMENT RUSHING
TROOPS TO THE EAST.
LATE ADVICES ALARMING
Boycott Against Americans Intensified
Naval. DEMONSTRATION by the
United States Considered Possible

Washington.-There are several evil
dences that the administration is pre-
pared to apply the big stick policy
to China if the latter shows evidences
Of defiance
Several weeks ago II was reluctantly
admitted at the War Department that
The troops in the Philippines were be
ing materially increased. in the face of
Secretary Taft's declaration that no
more than 10000 men We're required to
keep order, because the administration
feared that there was gcing to be trou-
BILE for the United States in China
Prior to this the statement had been
made upon the same authority that ad-
ditional troops were TO be sent there,
that by that time brigade drills might
be made possible.
Advices from China received here
and at London are admittedly of most
alarming character.
To-day it was said at the Navy De
partmcnt that following the compile
tion of Rear Admiral Sigsbee's cruise
the Galveston and the Chattanooga
would be sent East through the Suez
canal to Chinese waters.
Almost at the same moment 1t was
declared in the State Department upon
authority that every report from an
american CONSUL general IN CllHa WIS
to the effect that the boycott and the
feeling against America now fiourished
as never before and the reports
mounted a foot high.
Continuously cropping up were pla-
cards denouncing Americans and cry
ing that If the boycott and demonstra-
tion were only kept up, America would
let down the bars to Chinese immi-
grafton.
Again and again, il was said, the
American minister, MIR. Rockhill. and
his assistants have protested to the au-
thorities against these unfriendly
proclamations. and told the yiceroys
of the provinces in which they were
posted that they would be held person
ally responsible by the United States
for any hostile acts which might fol
low.
The placards were taken down and
drastic decrees issued By the piceroys,
but only TO have the placarding re
peated.
In view Of these various declarations,
all upon the same subject, ii is gen
orally believed here that unless there
is a change in the Chinese situation
within the next few months, an Amer
lean demonstration is strong possi
bility.
