AS INSURANCE AGENT.
Jon L. Stearns, agent at Denver of
the Mutual Life Insurance company,
conhrmened the story told by Or
chard about securing employment as
a solicitor for the company before he
went to Canon City to kill ex Gov
ernor Peabody and produced letters
of recommendation which Orchard
furnished in response to his request.
One letter was from George Petit
bone, a confident of Haywood, and it
made jocular reference to the fact
that Stearns was taking many agents
from him and requested in future
when any of his agents applied for
work they be put out on the sidewalk.
Another letter was signed by Horace
N. Hawkins, partner of Attorney
Richardson of the defense, and it
gave Orchard, then travelling under
the name of Thomas Ryan, a very
strong recommendation as to char
acter. The defense objected but the
court permitted their introduction
as evidence.

worked for Roach, the plumber who
made the lead casing for the Peabody
bomb, told of the call of Orchard at

FEAT OF A cNE-ARMED MAN.
He Builds = Two-story House Without
Outside Help.

LOndOn.-Quite a pretentious two
story house stands at Rochester, Eng.
land, as monument TO the industry
of a One-armed man named Simpson.
who is connected with the British
postal service. The man has for many
years been employed on one Of the
rural routes and as his time is not
wholly taken up at his labor he spends
a large part of each day at work on
a farm which he owns and operates
Having a few spare minutes left each
day, the thought occurred to him To
build a residence for himself. He
gave the matter some thought and
finally drew the plans, which were
submitted to the local authorities and
duly approved by them.
He commenced the work OF foupda-
lion laying and for ten years he gave
the project what time he had after
attending to his other duties and az
the end OF this period the house was
complete in every particular. The in.
terror woodwork was all in place and
the walls and ceilings properly decor.
ateG and all of this was done by the
one-armed Handy-Andy during his
spare time. The cart in which the
bricks and lumber were hauled was
also constructed by the remarkable
workman. In the rearing of this build
ing all work was done by his hands
or rather his hand.
Mr.. Simpsons arm was shot of bv
the accidental discharge of a gun
when he was a lad of - years. but
Notwithstanding this handicap he has
more to show for his industry and
perseverance than most persons witk
the usual number of arms.

WooEs AND wEOs IN A DAY.
Colorado Man Makes Woman Wife
Short Time After Meeting Her.

DenveT-TO meet a woman for the
first time, TO WOO, win, and wed her
all within "A hours, would be a feat
for the most attractive AdOnis, yet
that is what William Z. Buel, a well
known ranchman from Yuma, Colo.
successfully accomplished on crutches.
Buel started for Denver a few days
ago, driving in from his ranch to the
station. Buers horse ran away and he
was thrown out and injured, but he
secured crutches and continued his
journey to Denver.
In the afternoon he caliSA on Mrs.
Cora Brewer, an old friend, SAd there
met Mrs. Anna Stumke. A rapid fire
cOurtship ensued, and the following
morning the couple were married by
Magistrate Thomas Carlon.
But there may be breakers ahead for
the two, who started on a honeymoon

Stumke makes objection to the wed.
ding. In securing the marriage license
Mrs. Stumke admitted that she had
been divorced, but she gave the date
as January, 1905.
But it was not in January, 1905, but
on April IA, 1906, that Mrs. Stumke
was granted a divorce from Frederick
Stumke and was allowed S400 perma-
nent almOny. The decree, in accord
ance with the Colorado divorce laws,
provided that neither party should
marry within year.
The law is binding only as to Col
oradO, and does not operate to hinder
persons from going into another state
and marrying as soon as they wish.
but it provides penalty for remar-
riage within the state If the other
party to the divorce cares to prosecute
the charges.
As Buel hObbled out on his crutches
with his bride on his arm, however, he
gave no sign of fear that his wifes
former husband might interrupt the
honeymoon.
