Edna Irvine Case Not Up

Sheridan, Wyo.-Thus far eigh,
criminals have been convicted OF
pleaded guilty iii the District Court
at the present session, five of whom
will receive penitentiary sentences.
There are seven criminal cases yet to
be tried, one for murder in the second
degree.
There is a probability that the case
of Miss Edna Irvine, charged with as.
sault for shooting George Knighton,
manager of the Joe Letter ranch, will
not come to trial. Knighton has not
yet appeared, and efforts of the county
attorney to locate him have failed. II
as believed he has temporarily left the
country in order to avoid the necessity
of appearing against the young
girl who shot him. Miss Ir-
vine is the daughter of ex-State
Treasurer w. C. Irvine. and the shoot.
ing of Knighton a year ago created a
sensation.
Those so far convicted are: Charles
Ross, criminal assault vn Rachel
Jones, little girl at Dietz; Ed. Col.
man, grand larceny; Charles Vassar,
felonious assault; Mike Bumbaca, the
first of the Italians to be tried for as
sauting Americans at the Monarch
mining camp, was convicted. and Tony
Pappilla at once pleaded guilty to the
same charge.

pefaIcation Is Denied.

Cheyenne, Wyo.-The report that
Homer E. Hursch, promoter of the
Laramie Valley Irrigation and Colony
Company, had left with a large amount
Of the company's funds, is denied at
the headquarters here, where 1t is
stated that Hursch severed his connec-
tion with the company because of the
failure of the scheme upon which 10
II was founded and which he promoted.
He was not an officer of the company,
and the officers state that he was in
Denver a few days ago and in commu-
nication with them.
The Laramie Valley Irrigation and
Colony Company opened offices in
Cheyenne in March. although not in
corporated under the laws of this
state, and undertook to dispose of a
large area of land near Bosler. Albany

scheme was to have upwards of 1000
persons each pay the company, in in
stallments. $3.50, in return for which
each was to receive tract of land and
a lot in the townsite of Bosler, which

100 or 120-acre tract.
Before the scheme was well under
way insurmountable obstacles were en-
countered and it was abandoned on
May Both. Its abandonment, it is an
nounced, at the company's headquar-
ters, was responsible for Hursch's s
severing his connection with the com
pany. The company now desires to
dispose of its land, either in its en-.
lirety or in small or large tracts.

The Personality Of Labor.

The notion is quite too prevalent
that the workingman is primarily an
economic problem" that he ought to
realize this and conduct himself with
mechanical regularity and impersonal
uniformity as fractional unit of labor
power. We shall never make any
headway under that doctrine. The
workingman is first of all a human
being. The purchase of his labor Is
only in a limited sense to be compared
to the purchase of commodity and
cannot be treated in the same way.
AS DIR. Abbot has suggested, in the
sale of sugar or flour the personal re-
1ation of mutual confidence need enter
only once. at the time OF the ex-
change; but where you are buying la
Dor the laborer goes with the labor
md the personal relation of con-
fidence and responsibility must be
there all the time, from day to day
and week to week, or somebody is
cheated. Therefore. whatever method
Of getting along together is adopted
says Hayes Robbins in Atlantic, it
must count with personal qualities as
an essential part of the relation.

abandoned stope. Samuel Walters, Jr.,
aged twelve years and son of Samuel
Walters, well known mining man OF
Central City, was plunged 100 feet to
instant death in the Fisk mine.
The Elder Walters is leasing on the
Fisk property and TIN boy accom-.
panied his father into the mine this
morning. He was playing around in
the eleventh level when he happened
to cross the old stope-
1t is said the covering had been in
place for several years and had rotted
to such an extent that II would not
support the boys weight and he went
through with a crash. The father was
but few feet from his son, but could
not save him.

DEAD MAN WAKES UP.
Had Lain on the Slab Three Hours,
Then Came 70.

London.-A Rochdaie undertaken
met with a startling experience re-
gently During the last few days a
traveller named James Fegan. twenty
six years OF age, whose parents reside
in Christian street, Pre,uon, has been
seriously Ill with pneumonia at his
lodgings in Rochdale During the
whole of Thursday night he was ex-
tremely i'll, and apparently died at z
O'Clock next morning.
A brother and sister of Fegan, who
had been summoned from Preston, and
the inmates of the house, assured
themselves that the man was dead,
and straightway began to make al
rangements for the funeral. The blinds
were drawn and the doctor was in
formed that death had taken place. He
prepared the customary certificate and
arrangements were made about some
Insurance money.
The undertaken was informed and
three hours after death was supposed
to have occurred he proceeded to the
lodgings of Fegan. When he reached
the room he found the mans head
propped up with pillows rather hign.
and one of the pillows was removed in
order to secure more correct meas
urement. The undertaken. Albert Hey
wood, had already taken one measure,
hnd was proceeding with a second in
order to verify the first, when he was
startled to see the body slightly heave.
At first he thought he must have been
mistaken, but after waiting a second or
two. the body heaved again, and there
was slight twitching of the eyelids.

summoned. AS soon as she learned
that her brother lived she tainted.
Mr.. Haywood then plunged the mans
hands into jug of cold water, and the
shock caused him to speak. He NUT
tered, "Oh, I'm cold" He had lain in

This looks like anti-osIerism. Chic

This looks like anti-Oslerism. Chief
Chemist Wiley of the department of
agriculture at Washington. addressing
the graduating class of scientific
school at Cleveland, said jocularly that
he belongs to hundred-year club,
any member OF which who dies before
completing the century will be ex-
PEELED in disgrace. Speaking more
seriously, he said: "The present gen.
GRAFTON is going to live much longer
than the one which came before, be-
cause 1t knows more about the laws
OF diet. hygiene and surgery. 1t is a
rank disgrace for any man to die, ex-
cept of old age" And DIR. Wiley
thinks that, in view of the good pros
poets of long life as result of proper
care and understanding OF the rules
Of health. it will pay a man to spend
a long time, even 20 years or more, in
the schooling which shall fit him for
his work. From which it is to be in
ferred that learning how to live is one
of the essentials to long life.

Will Can 10000 an Hour.

Longmont. Colo-The Empson Pack
ing Company has opened its plant for
the canning of the first crop of peas.
The machinery has been given thor
ough overhauling and it will be able to
take care of its capacity of 10000 cans
every hour.
The seasons crop for this year COW
ers about 5000 acres and from 6,000,-
BOO to 100000 cans will be packed
during the next six weeks.
The plans of the company are so
thoroughly organized that the peas can
be taken from the field at 8 o'clock in
the morning and be in cans before
noon ready for shipment. This insures
preservation of the succulent quality
of the crop and is one of the chief rea-
sons that has made the Empson peas
so famous all over the world
