EX-MAYOR AVERY
SUFFERS FROM FALL
tFrom Thursdays Oaily.)

tETUm 1uuI Sudy O0AyJ
ES-Mayor Frank Avery sustained a
most distressing accident last evening
in fall by which his right leg was
broken above the ankle. He went to
the barn after bucket of coal, and in
returning with his burden fell, one leg
being so placed that he struck upon it
with all his weight. There was no one
near and he lay for some time, unable
to move. AS he did not return, search
was instituted and he was found, suf-
fering intense pain. Charles I'll. Far
mum carried him to the house and DR..
J. E. English was summoned, who re-
duced the fracture. 1t is a simple
fracture, and will no doubt quickly
mend, but for the present Mr.. Avery
is in great distress. :

A DOUBLE TRAGEDY
 IN CANON CITY COLO.
Mystery Surrounds the Killing of hr.
 and Hrs. ". C. Baldwin.

Canon City. Colo, May 27.-A trag- edy was enacted Iere this afternoon, but whether it is murder and suicide or double murder has not been deter mined.
 Two shots were heard at the home of w. C. Baldwin in Lincoln Park. suburb of the city. Investigation dis closed the body of Baldwin lying on the floor, the head blown from the trunk. A shotgun was lying nearby. The ghastly spectacle of a woman's dead body standing nearly upright against the wall was next encountered. It was the body of Mrs. Baldwin. Her head was shattered by a gunshot wound: The authorities were notified. the bodies removed and an inquiry be- gun.
 The Baldwins had been married but few months. It is known that Mrs. Baldwin's parents objected to the union. About a month ago a brother is said to have induced her to leave Baldwin but she returned to her hus- band two weeks later. It is known that the woman had received word from her brother stating that he would arrive here shortly. It is reported he was seen in this vicinity a short time previous to the tragedy, but up to a late hour he had not been located.
