Colorado SprinIs.-Thc conviction
is steadily growing among those In
this city who have kept informed OF
the Developments In the Mathews.
Rumbaugh double tragedy. that Rum.
baugh murdered the girl. and that tho
circumstances pointing to murder
have caused much comment.
The announcement Of Charles A.

Of Chicago, that he intends to come
here and personally investigate the
tragic death Of Miss Matthews re-
newed public interest In the mystery
for mystery Il remains. notwitii-

Jury.
The body Of Amos. II. Rumbaugh.
whose direct connection with the
death of Miss Matthews remains prob
lematical. was sent east for burial
The authorities admit there are
many suspicious circumstances sur.
rounding the death Of Miss Matthews
which were not cleared up at the coro-
ner's inquest, but say that RumbaLgh,
to whom suspicion attached and who
Mr.. Coey and Mrs. Jennie Matthews
say murdered Miss Matthews. was
about his hotel all the afternoon and
evening of the day on which the young
woman met death.
The. action of Miss Green, the nurse.
have caused much adverse comment
and have had far more to do with the
general feeling that there is something
crooked amout the death of Miss Mat
thews than anything else SO far un.
earthed.
It is probable that no further ac-
tion will be taken by the authorities
unless something important develops.
The case was officially closed when the
yerdicts of suicide were returned by
the coroner's juries.

Vanishing Forests.

The old forests Of Kentucky are
vanishing. In all the good farming
regions men saved fine bits Of forest,
set with old beeches, oaks, ashes.
poplars, hickories, elms and walnuts.
When the underground was taken
away the grass set about the trees
and grew luxuriantly. Now these
trees are very old, and many are in
decay. The beech is an especially fine
tree, and 1t is worthy Of note that
there is not one beech to a thousand
old and decaying trees! Some day.
says Our Country, the beech will be
an extinct tree in all the more fertile

Reno, New, Sept. 16.-According to
statements made there will be a gen.
| eral investigation of certain depart
| ments in the city government when
| the inquisitorial body meets again.
The brunt of the investigating will be
| directed against the office of Police
Judge G. A. Richardson who has
been accused of incompetency and
malfeasance.
No sworn complaints have been
| made and it is possible that none will
be made until the grand Jury con-
venes, but severe allegations have
been made against Judge Richardson
on several occasions and the city
council has ordered him to follow the
letter of the law more carefully. but
he has always disregarded the
charges and the commands of the
council, declaring that he is independ-
ent of the council and the mayor and
that he will conduct his Office as he
sees fit. In speaking of the investiga-
ton, Foreman Sam Hodgkinson of the
grand jury said:
No direct charges have been made
against Judge Richardson or any
other member of the city government
but indirect charges have been made
and We know enoughh to warrant a
thorough investigation of his Office. }
