shot and killed by II. 7. Wilson, ten
ant on one OF his farms. The other
party to the trouble was William Da

and became mixed In the alteration.
The young men finally drew their re-
volvers and began firing at each other.

bullet from the gun OF Wilson killed
the old man. All were prominent In
that section. The Davises are heavy
land owners and Wilson Is the son ol
o wealthy cattleman near Johnstown

the residents of the vicinity over the
murder and Wilson was brought tc

In the county Jail.
It Is not known that the Davises and
Wilson ever had any trouble before. Il
is understood that there were no wit.

September 9th, it was decided to
make the interstate inspection law ap-
plicable to state traffic The following
orders were given out:
Cattle shippers in eastern Colorado
In the area under quarantine for cattle
scabfes, on account of the cooperation
of the State Board of Stock Inspection
Commissioners with the government
inspectors, should, within ten days Of
the date of their shipment, apply to-
DIR. Lowell Clarke, 800 Quincy building,
Denver, Colorado, or to one of the local
bureau inspectors, for a permit allow
ing the cattle to be shipped as 'Unin-
spected Clean Cattle in which case
they would be handled without restric-
ton at the market centers
However, should the B. A. I. in.
spector be convinced that the cattle
are part of diseased herd, such per-
init would be refused and the cattle
could only be shipped as 'Uninspected
Exposed Cattle and submitted to in
spection at their destination where
federal inspection is maintained
This, however. has nothing what
ever to do with the brand inspection of
cattle which Is maintained by the
State Board Of Stock Inspection com
missioners.
Whereas, Upon the request of the
state veterinary surgeon of Colorado,
the secretary Of agriculture has con-
sented to cooperate with the Colo

Will Help Key Men.

Los Angeles, Cal.-The most sue
cessful benefit ever given in Los An
geles to any cause in which labor was
concerned was concluded at the Audi
torium theater. the largest and most
beautiful of its kind on the coast, and
the striking commercial telegraphers
of southern California are $4,000
richer. The house was packed, the up
permost galleries. which have seldom
been opened to occupancy in this new
playhouse, being filled. Almost every
theater in the city donated at least one
act, and enough high-class talent was
secured to give performance of three
and one-half hours.
The local telegraphers entered on
the eighth week of their struggle for
better working conditions, the strike
which is now prevalent over the entire
country having its inception here. Of
icers Of the local union declare there
have been only three desertions during
that entire epriod. The local treasury
is now in better shape than at any
time previous to the strike.
The telegraphers are receiving dona-
tions from almost every labor body in
the city. and the strikers are paid
weekly benfits sufficient to meet cur
rent living expenses. declare the Off
GERS. and the sentiment most often ex-
pressed among the members is that a
settlement will come soon and spoil
their vacation.

A DUEL TO DEATH.
Two Cripple Creek Men Are Killed
and One Wounded.

and One Wounded.
Cripple Creek. Colo.-Walter Alex
ander, an expressman, and Albert
Bills. his employe, were shot and
killed at 1910 o'clock Saturday night,
and Nate Thorpe. a rival expressman,
is In jail, charged with the crime. The
shooting is said to have been entirely
without provocation. at least SO far as
Bills was concerned. Feeling against
Thorpe is very bitter and an attempt
may be made before morning to lynch
him. The Jail is being guarded by a
large number OF police officers to pre-
vent any violence.
Thorpe, Alexander and Bills were
at the Midland Terminal depot, solicit
ing business among the incoming pas
sengers. Bad blood had existed be-
tween Alexander and Thorpe for three
years. Thorpe was in an ugly mood
and some declare he had been drink
ing heavily during the evening.
When the train pulled in two men
alighted and accosted the expressmen,
asking them for information concern
ing hotels and the charge for hauling
baggage. Alexander and Thorpe an
swered at the same time and each
tried to elbow the other out of the
way. In twinkling the men were
using bad language toward each other,
and in another second they were en-
gagged in a fistfight.
They fell part way down an embank-
ment and suddenly three shots rang
out. Bills, who was standing some six
or eight feet away. fell to the ground
dead. with a bullet through his heart
A minute later Alexander cried out
that he had been shot. A bullet had
entered his abdomen, resulting in an
internal hemorrhage and death in a
short time.
Just before he died Alexander made
a short statement to Policeman
Charles Miller and a few others, in
which he insisted that Thorpe had
shot him during the fight. Alexander
also said that Thorpe had shot Bills.
The dying expressman said he was un-
armed at the time and that Thorpe
had no just provocation for shooting
Peter Winning, who heard the first
shot fired, ran to where the men were
fighting and witnessed the end Of the
struggle. He says that Alexander had
Thorpe by the wrist and Thorpe was
trying to break away when the second
shot was fired. Just before the sec
ond shot was fired, the one that killed
Alexander, the men fell to the ground
and rolled down the steps leading to
Bennett avenue, a distance Of from
twelve to fifteen feet The men fought
every step OF the way down.
Thorpe made a statement to the ef-
feet that Alexander shot Bills by ac-
cident and then during the fight with
Thorpe shot himself as they were
fighting on the steps.
Thorpe is about forty years old and
has a son nine years old.
Walter Alexander was about forty
six years old and married. Besides a
widow, he leaves son aged six years.

Fire Burned Eighteen Month. now Out.

Trinidad, Colo.-The fire which
burned for one and one-half years in
the Engleville mine has been COM
pletely extinguished. An official an
nouncement was made today by the Of
ficers Of the Colorado Fuel & Iron
Company, who made a personal trip
Of inspection.
The fire broke out in May, 1906, and
was supposed to have been Of incen.
diary origin. An eighteen-year old
Mexican boy. Martinez, was tried on
the charge Of arson. but was acquitted
on the ground that the fire was acci.
dental. He fell asleep and the fire
was supposed to have been started by
his lamp. An area Of over 1000 feet
was burned over.
Every available method OF extin.
gushing mine fires was tried without
success, when finally the late John
Kebler. then general manager OF the
q. F. & l., gave the idea Of fighting the
blaze with carbonic acid gas. A plant
was constructed at the mouth OF the
mine. and the gas was piped In a dis
tance Of one and one.half miles. and
the experiment proved successful.

of an assembled throng such as Can

Disk PIow May Be Used.

The disk plow can be employed in
blowing land when it is dry and hard,
which is highly important, and it also
pulveriZes the furrow slice when the
land is dry rather better than the
moldboard plow. The disk plow can
also be used in large gangs, and thus
works very well behind traction en-
gine. For summer fallow plowing a
light disk plow is about half way be-
tween an ordinary disk plow and i
disk harrow. 1t cuts four or five
inches deep and turns the furrow suf-
ficiently to cover any weeds or trash.
When subsoiling is practiced the use
Of subsoiling attachment in a gang
plow is not only practicable. but pref
cradle. One satisfactory disk plow
that is made for use with five or six
horses has two large disks for general
use. but when subsoiling is to be done
the front disk can be removed and a
subsoiler attached in it's place. This
position of the subsoiler has several
advantages. 1t leaves a smooth-bot-
toned furrow in which the furrow
horses walk, and 1t also Immediately
covers the subsoil loosened by the
subsoil plow, thus preventing a con-
siderable loss Of moisture that might
result from leaving this loosened sub
soil exposed to the air until the next
round Of the plow. There is some
question as to whether subsoil plow-
ing is worth what 1t costs and many
farmers are Of the opinion that deep
plowing without subsoiling Is the bet.

Prominent cIubman Takes Life.

Colorado Springs.-Crazed by drink
and suffering from the hallucination
that enemies were in pursuit of him.
Samuel P. Mcdaniel, a wealthy club
man of Colorado Springs, ended a de-
bauch begun in Denver by blowing out
his brains Before killing himself he
attempted to shoot his intimate friends
DR.. Charles Adams Holder and Albert
E. Gardner. who had been summoned
by neighbors to subdue the frenzied
man. Mcdaniel shot three times at
his companions, and when three dep
uties from the sherffs Office arrived
he barricaded his house. and, going to
hallway in the upper story. shot him
self. His body was found by the dep
uties at daylight this morning They
had remained on guard outside all
night, not daring to force an entrance
for fear that Mcdaniel would carry
out his threats to kill them.
There is an element of mystery
about the affair that friends of the sui
eide are trying to unravel. Possessed
of wealth in abundance, happy in his
domestic relations, it is said, in good
health, Mcdaniel apparently had ev-
irything to live for. No reason is
Eiven for his act except that he was
beside himself as the result of a ten
days debauch, entered upon after the
departure of his wife and two young
sons, who went to Ocean Grove, Penn
sqlvania. two weeks ago. The house.
hold goods had been packed prepara-
tory to storing. and Mcdaniel was
planning to go into the Nevada gold
| fields.
