Durango semi-weekly herald., 1906-05-10

In to the main Office. This the Duran
go office is trying to do, as It Is no
more than right that all who suffered
should receive every consideration.
IL Is impossible, however. for the en-
ployes to keep In mind the complete
list and those not receiving papers
should hand their name In at the gen
eral delivery window, receive pa
per and their name sent In and again
placed on the mailing list. The Du-
range office will do its share towards
strengthening out the tangle.
The father of the Rhndy boys, who
lives In Michigan, has written to a
friend inqniring about his son Henry
whom ne has learned met with some
accident. He had written several
letters which were not answered or
returned to him. This brings up
anew the story of the missing man.
When George Rhudy, his brother and
Joe Steinnegger, went up to tae scene
of the mammoth snowslide In the La
Plata district in the vicinity of Ruby
and Heffernan gulches, last February,
they concluded from all they could
find that Henry Rhudy was under the
slide. They found everything in the
cabin as Henry would have left II
at breakfast time; found that he had
unfinished work in the tunnel where
he worked, and other evidences that
ne must have been caught by the big
slide and carried. probably to the
lower part OF the guleh, under the
great mass OF snow.
DR.. Edward Amherst OFT, who
closed the series OF High school en-
tertainments last night, had as his
subject the Law of Heredity,"
theme for the better thought of the
sages. In the brief. vibrating from
the serious to the almost comical, he
impressed his hearers with the i'm
portance of proper mating In mar
riage that heredity would give less
for contention In the sociological
spheres. Going further into this de,
tail he tried to impress his auditors
with the nature of the responsibilities
which communities and people must
accept as results given in hercdlty.
DR.. OFT had his audience laughing
part of the time and at times in
sterner thought. The attendance
was, as usual, on such occasions, not
as large in numbers as had been
hoped for.
The Herald few days ago publish.
ed the news of the attack of Joe
Kroll on Lucas Kauch at the Calumet
coal mine, breaking down door, de-
stroying furniture and taking several
shots at Kauch. Sheriff Thompson
arrested Kroll Friday evening under
a warrant charging him with assault
with intent to kill and this afternoon

Houx's court for a preliminary hear

Yesterday evening news reached

field at his Texas creek ranch, was in
jured In n runaway. the team drag
ging harrow over him. DR.. Lackey
was summoned, and with Jesse Stan
sci and Mrs. Barker, Mrs. Farrels
mother, they went out during the
night. DR.. Lackey returned today
and says he thinks Johnnie will be
laid up for couple of weeks His
injuries are not serious as were at
first presumed.
He was trying to adjust n strap on
the harness and was between the
horses when one of them kicked
him. Telling him, and then dragging
the harrow over him. The harrow is
adjustable by lever and the teeth
happened fortunately to be turned
backward. in a position that would
do least harm. He was kicked in the
stomach and the harrow cut his head
and one of his legs. Dr. Lackey
thinks there is slight concusson
of the brain, but anticipates no fatal
