JESSE CoLLBURN is ON
TRIAL AGAIN TODAY

This afternoon at two o'clock, in
the court of Justice Sweeney, jesse
II. Collburn, the young man who was
charged by his parents with being IN
sane but who was declared sane by
a Jury IL few days ago only to be re-
arrested on n charge of threatening
T. kill his mother and father, was
arraigned for trial on the latter
charge.
Practically and substantially the
same evidence that was brought out
in the lunacy hearing and reviewed at
the time in the Sentinel, was employ
ed in the hearing this afternoon.
Collburn claims that he never made
threats at any time in his life to Kill
either his father or mother or to do
them serious injury. He described
at length an alteration he and his
father had one evening at the supper
table at the Collburn home near CIR
ton, this same alteration being de-
scribed at the lunacy hearing as an
evidence of the young mans insanity.
The Young man declared that his ia
ther had a way of saying things ITO
cut peoples feelings" That on the
night in question he came in to the
supper table and his father made
some insinuating remark to the enect
that his son was not doing the work
he should do about the place. Ihe
young man testified that he replied
''in not a very respectful manner. lie
said words lead to words, his tatheI
grew very angry, seized chalr anu

The young man declared that he seiz.

The defendant claimed that he diG

ATrACKs JUDGE HIIL

Going of half-cocked, using black
type and lot of gush mixed in with
fabrication and mis-statements, long
ago became one of the characterls-
tics of the Yellow Kids of the Morn
ing Yellow. Just to be attacking
somebody for the sensationalism that
might be in it is another Characters
tic. This morning a dirty, unground-
ed and fruitless attempt to belittle
actions of Judge Hill, of the police
court was attempted. These would
be wise acres and court purifyers
should be certain of their premises
when they bawl forth. A case in which
boy, over 16 years old, charged with
assault and one or two other offenses,
was made the bases of the howell this
morning. Every statement made re-
garding the case was false. The peo-
lice court has full jurisdiction over a
boy sixteen years and over. the juve-
nile court steps in where children
are under sixteen. The boy in ques-
tion was urged to secure witnesses
and an attorney, declared he wanted
neither and was ready to plead gull
ty. The court assessed the necessary
fine and costs, then suspended both,
gave the boy a good bit OF advice
and let him go. The court did right,
Very peculiar proceeding" wasn't it.
The Chicago Record-Herald failed to
get in last night so the editorial col
umn had to be filled up with some
thing else, hence a few wild attacks
on city officials and a plea for "our
Simon" and a cute little wailing
over the manner in which an Easy
Mark was worked for a railroad pass
had to be employed.

TIME At FRUITA

Last night thirty-one ladies and
gentlemen, to be exact, twenty-five
ladies' and nine gentlemen, members
of the local lodge of Rebekahs. went
down to attend a big meeting of the

one of the most enjoyable and slcaoi
one of the most enjoyable and sue
cessful fraternal gatherings held in
Fruita this year.
A class of ten candidates was init
lated and the degree team from the
Grand Junction lodge did the work.
There is not betted degree team in
Colorado in Rebekah circles than the
one in the local lodge and they never
did better work than at the meeting
last night. The team was showered
with congratulations by all present
Mrs. Emma NJ Wadsworth. of this
city, state president of the Assembly
of Rebekahs, declared last night that
in her numerous visits throughout the
state to the various lodges this year
she had seen no team do the work
better than that of the Grand juno
tion lodge.
After the lodge session a most
elegant banquet was served by the
rruita lodge and a social hour was en-
joyed. The Fruitaites treated their
visitors from the county seat royalty.
The delegation from here made the
trip down and back in carriages. All
are enthusiastic over the meeting.
The Fruita lodge is prospering and
growing.
The meeting was held in the new
Masonic hall.

F. E. Barney, the well known fruit
grower and neighbor of the Collburns
was one of the witnesses examined
His testimony was not very import
ant.
This trouble between the aged par
ents and their son is very deplorable
and it is believed by many that young
Collburn had been subjected to temper
airy spells of insanity or melancholia
and his actions during these affIic-
TONS mad caused the trouble. However
Collburn appears to be perfectly sane

new building is completed, when it
will be removed
Many are the questions being ask

and very little can be said just at
present. However, this can be said:
The building committee are giving
time and thought in the study and
planning of the new building and
when the final plans are adopted they
will have in prospect an up-to-date
building, conveniently arranged and
equipped to meet the needs of the
work for the next ten or fifteen years.
When completed the building will be
one of which the citizens will be
proud, and will compare favorably
with association buildings in cities
even larger than Grand Junction.
Plans are now being worked out by

church, the largest in the city, in the
person of Mr.. J. Blaine Boyd. The
city organization was to meet at one
of the Baptist churches monthly. The
meetings were to rotate. The first
meeting, since the organization, was
held at the Pleasant Green Baptist
Church, Rev. Mr.. Fields pastor. The
second meeting was to have been held
at First Baptist Church, East Nash,
vile, last Sunday. Quite a number were
present. including Row. Mr.. Fields
Miss Hall, Rev. DR.. Clark, President
Boyd and others, but the attendance
was so scattered and SO irregular the
meeting was postponed to some future
date,

WILL NOT ATTEND BOARD
MEETING.

It is learned that the call issued by
Rev. E. c. Morris for the Executive
Board of the National Baptist Con-
vention to meet in Washington, d. O.,
on May II and Is, will not be re-
sponded to by all the members OF the
various boards. DR.. G. H. Clark,
Chairman of the Publishing Board,
will not attend the meeting unless a
different construction is put upon the
call The doctor does not construe
the call to mean that the chairmen OF
the various boards Of the National
Baptist Convention are expected to be
present. although it is stated that the
original intention of organizing an
executive board to the National Bap-
fist Convention was to have the chair
men and secretaries Of the boards,
with the officers of the convention, to
comprise the executive board It
seems that the Baptists are having so
many constructions put upon their
calls that they themselves do not know
lust when they are complying with
their own rules. If the three boards
of the National Convention which
should be located in Nashville, are to
he represented in this meeting at
Washington, it would take to that
city Drs. R. H. Boyd, Of the Publish
ing Board; E. W. D. Isaac, Of the B. Y.
P. U. Board, G. H. Clark, of the Pub
fishing Board, and VIM. Beckham
Field Secretary. 1t is not learned def
initelv whether any one Of these, ex'
cept Rev. Beckham will be present
At this meeting the program for the
National Convention is usually ar
ranged. Then. too other matters Of
Importance that cannot remain over
until the annual meetings, are usually
taken under advisement. Whether
Or. J. P. Robinson, of Little Rock
Ark. chairman of the Home Mission
Board and Rev. DR.. Frank, of Louis
Vile, KY, chairman Of the Foreign
Mission Board, so interpreted the call
is not learned. If DR.. Robinson ant
DR.. Frank attend, it will be, possibly
n the interest Of matters concerning
heir boards places on the program
for the coming convention.
