F ear Outbreak.

Monte Vista, Colo.-An outbreak is
threatened at the Old Solers' Home.
The failure of the state commission to
take action in the difficulty between
Commander Aldrich and Comrades
Madden and Byers, who were expelled
several weeks ago, has aroused the ire
of many of the inmates, and talk of
taking the matter into their own hands
is general among the veterans.
Influential citizens of Monte Vista,
who favor the soldiers in the contro-
versy, are exerting every effort to
avert an open revolt, and although they
have thus far succeeded in calming the
inmates, it is only matter of time,
they say until their anger will become
manifest in probable violence against
the leader
The meeting of the commission re-
suited in a deadlock. Chairman l.. Fl.
Cheney of Monte Vista and G. w. Curf-
man of Denver indorsed the admins
tration of Aldrich, while R. H. Mellette,
commander of the Colorado and Wyom.
ing department of the G. A. r., and
John w Wingate of Durango, sided
with the soldiers.
When it was seen that there was no
ioPC VI iSuSHiHeS ttlleul dCllOu
was deferred until the next meeting,
August 9th.
AS forerunner TO the threatened
outbreak it has been learned that the
old soldiers one night recently under
cover of darkness replaced the flags
which had been removed by Aldrich,
on the graves of dead comrades.
Commander Aldrich says that ev-
erything is peaceful at the home
Comrades Byers and Madden have
not been reinstated and probably will
not beat least before The next meet
ing of the commission.
Aside from the discussion of the
Aldrich case the board took important
action in several business matters
concerning the home. They let sew
eral contracts for the erection of new
buildings and other improvements at
the institution.
Robert Campbell of Alamosa was
given the mason work on the addi-
tions to the hospital and laundry, while
the plumbing contract was awarded
to Henry Shawl.

Editor Killed in Runaway.

Creede, Colo.-George c. Wilder
owner and editor of the Creede Candle,
and one of Creede's most progressive
citizens, was almost instantly killed at
o'clock the evening of July goth. in
runaway. In company with his
father-in-law, James Motz, Wilder
started for drive with recently pur.
chased horse.
The two men had gone but short
distance when the horse became frac.
lious and Motz jumped from the buggy,
while Wilder endeavored to stop the
increasing speed of the horse.
Wilder's efforts were futile and the
crazed horse dashed the buggy into a
pile of logs, throwing the driver with
great force against them, crushing his
skull.
The death of Mr.. Wilder has cast a
gloom over the entire community
Probably no man in the county was
more conversant with the interests
represented here than Wilder. Being
a resident since the historical boom
days of Creede and a foremost citizen
his fund of information always was
available to an inquirer.
Wilder owned and edited the Creedc
Candle for twelve years. He came to
the camp in 1892 and worked as ,
miner for some time, and was inter
ested in different mercantile pursuits
He was forty-four years old.

Startling Evidence in eoebel Case.

Georgetown. ky.-The deposition of
Mrs. Jennie Youtsey, wife of Henry Z.
Youtsey, who was given life SEN
tence for the murder of William Goe-
bel, after a trial throughout which he
feigned unconsciousness, filed in the
Powers case now on here, is startling
in its allegations. The deposition of
Mrs. Youtsey was taken in Lexington
and is to be placed in evidence by the
defense in contradiction to the state
ments made in a confession of her hus-
band since testified to in the trial of
Powers.
Mrs. Youtsey. according to this dep
osition. overheard a conversation be-
tween Powers and her husband in the
Jail here, in which Youtsey told Pow
ers that he could think of nothing that
in any way connected him with the
murder of Goebel. She says that when
her husband was first placed in the
penitentiary Warden Eph Lillard told
her that Youtsey ought to tell what
part Powers and the other fellows took
in the murder of Goebel and it would
not go so hard with him and he might
even get out She said she thanked
the warden, but her husband assured
her that he had told all he knew of the
connection of anyone with the plot.
Later. giving the dates, Youtsey was
put to stoking the engines, along with
the negroes, ana was made to work
there until he fell fainting from eX-
hauStion. He was constantly given
hard work, and told her that he had
been confined eight consecutive Sun
days on bread and water
She AYERS that she does not believe
from what her husband told her, and
from the actions of both, that Powers
had any knowledge of the plot or as
sassination of Goebel. The common
wealth's attorneys presented an aft
davit counter to the one filed by the
defense asking that Judge Robbins va
cate the bench. but the defense OBJ
jected to its being filed on the ground
that the statements in the Powers af
fdavit under the law may be taken as
facts.

Kills Two, Then Himself.

Coalgate, |. T.-Believing that the
relatives of his three-weeks' bride had
induced her to desert him, Edward S.
Doyle shot and instantly killed her
Turning the weapon upon Allie Dob
bins, sister of the bride, the young
man fired two shots into her. She died
in few hours. Young Doyle stood
above the bodies of the young women
for moment, and then fired a shot
into his own brain, killing himself in
stantly.
The young people were prominent
here and both were members of good
families. The wedding three weeks
ago was one of the events of the year
and everyone prophesied a bright fu-
ture for the young people. 1t was
little more than a week until the bride
left her husband and refused to dis
cuss reconciliation. Doyle believed
her family responsible for the es-
arrangement. He openly accused his
wife of this just before firing the fatal
shots.

Extraordinary discoveries were re-
Gently made at Toulouse, Saintes
Agen, Bordeaux and other towns in
the south and southwest of France, of
the wholesale adulteration of flour. A
considerable number of the inhabi-
tants of Condop have for many weeks
been suffering from gastric disorders
and serious stomach complaints. The
doctors sought for the cause of this
curious epidemic, and attributed it to
bread. The bakers, by way of show
ing their good faith, supplied samples
of the bread the patients had eaten.
At was found to be heavily adulterated
with tale, mineral which is generally
found in rough, brittle crystals, which
can be sliced with knife. Other
samples contained large quantities of
marble dust and sulphate of baryta.

A Dangerous Pest.

1t sometimes happens in human life
that man who has lived for years in
peaceable if not amicable relations
with his neighbors is suddenly re-
vealed as a great criminal whose pres
ence has been constant menace to all
about him, and whose sins include
tragedies which had long been mys-
teries. Some such revelation as this
has been made about the common do
mestic rat. not suddenly, perhaps, but
with slow and certain piling up OF
evidence, until now the biological sur.
vey of the United States government
has indicted the sly gray criminal in
a special pamphlet The first foreign
rat to reach these shores was the Eu-
ropean black rat, which came over
nearly 300 years ago. The common
rat of to-day is the brown or Norway
rat. He reached America about 1775,
and has multiplied so rapidly that he
has almost entirely driven out his
black predecessor. There is also a
third species, known as the roof, or
Alexandrian rat of Egypt. This rat is
good sailor, and so is found mostly
in seacoast cities. The brown rat is
pronounced to be the worst NAM
malian pest in existence. No statis-
tics are available for America, but in
Denmark this rat is estimated to
work S3,000,000 worth of destruction
every year; and in the United States
one rat to every horse, COW, sheep and
hog-a conservative estimate-woud
do S100,0OO,000 worth of damage in a
year. Rats destroy eggs and young
poultry, pigeons, game birds and song
birds. In cities they enter stores and
warehouses, and destroy laces, car.
pets, silks and woolens. They gnaw
through lead pipe, and so flood build
ings with water. They eat away the
insulation of electric wires, and thus
cause fires. They are prolific sources
of the spread of contagious diseases.
They breed so fast that q single pair,
Ii they and their descendants were
unmolested for three years, would be
represented at the end of that time by
more than 20,000000 individuals The
bulletin of the biological survey is is
sued especially for farmers and others
whose premises are infested with
rats. 1t gives the best methods of
poisoning them-the rats-describes
the most effective traps, and gives
other information which makes it an
important aid in the elimination of
what has truly been called "a world
pest"

Accused Of Torturina Gophers.

Cheyenne, Wyo.-State Humane
Agent H. d. Cough has returned from
trip of inspection to the grading
camps between Cheyenne and the
Colorado line, along the route of the
Athol-Borie cutoff of the Union Pacific
He found only two horses In condition
unfit for work, and reports that the
contractors stock is generally in sur
prisingly good condition. Agent
Cough departed for the west to inves-
tigate number of cases between
Laramie and Rock Springs, including
that of Greek laborers at Salt Wells,
who are alleged to make practice
and pastime of burning gophers and
prairie dogs to death.

Medieval Leisure.

The women of the sixteenth century
than those of our generation. To be
sure, there are hundred labor saving
devices today which were unknown to
them. But in at least two important
respects they had the advantage over
their descendants. They waged no
conflict against dirt, such as we carry
on from morning till night. The
Ellzabethan had no prejudice against
garbage in his front yard, vermin in
his bedroom, decaying rushes on the,
floor of his banquet hall, or soiled
lace on his sleeves. The strength of
arm and spirit which now goes to
Keeping clean was left to the medieval
lady for other tasks. Moreover, al
though her clothing was gorgeous-
rich with embroidery and lace and
heavy with jewels-it was not subject
to rapid changes of fashion. The cut
of sleeve or the hang of a skirt was
settled for five years rather than for
five months. Life was free then from
the modern terror of looking like a
last years ragbag" If cleanliness and
fashion should suddenly go out of
business, says Youths Companion
what an air of leisure would spread
over the world feminine, until some
other tyrants should arise to take the
place of those dethroned!

Chicago.-That Laura Mathews did

instead was lured to her death on the
mountainside by murderer cunning
