RIFLE MAN DIES
IN GLENWOOD

Daniel McCorley, a citizen of Rife,
died at the county hospital in Glen
wood Sunday afternoon as a conse-
quence of injuries received by falling
from buggy. He was driving alone a
short distance from Rifle that afternoon
when the horse presumably took fright
and ran away, throwing him from the
vehicle. Later in the day he was dis
covered in the middle of the road in an
unconscious condition, by passers-by
and taken to Rifle where DR.. lie Ros
signol was summoned.
Conveyed from there to Glenwood on
Midland 6, he was given constant at
tendance by Doctors Crook and Rosen'
berg as well as by the Rifle medical
expert, but the case was hopeless one
and he passed away about noon, never
regaining consciousness. Conclusion
and compression of the brain is given
as the immediate cause of DEATH
McCorley came to Rifle about year
ago and has since resided there. He
was well thought Of by all who knew
him. At the time of death he was
about fifty years of age.
OF his immediate relatives, two
brothers and a sister were located and
communicated with at once. The sis
ter is resident of Charlottesville, West
Virginia, while one of the brothers
lives at Leadville. The remains were
inferred in the Glenwood cemetery
Wednesday morning.

BODY RECOVERED FROM
THE GRAND

The Grand river has given up an
other victim, one whose identity has
not yet and probably will never be
learned The body was discovered
Thursday about hundred yards this
side of the bridge at Shoshone and
fastened with ropes to a log on the
bank. Coroner Clark was notified and
Will Waddell and Ed Morrow, two EN-
pIoycs of the City stables were sent
by Undertaken Schwarz to bring the
remains to Glenwood, but after reach
ing the place and seeing the frightful
condition of the body, the boys had to
be specially induced before attempting
the task and say no small amount of
money would be an inducement for a
job like that every day.
At first it was thought it was the
body of the Mexican drowned in Eagle
river near Minturn about three weeks
ago, but DIR. Clark says the body
found is that of a much larger man
than Sanchez. The body is decom-
posed beyond any possible recognition
and the swift current had removed
every shred of clothing so that no clue
to his identity can be cleaned.

The baseball game was meant to be
the leading feature of the celebration
and Aspen tried her level best to get in

BETTER NOT LAUGH TOO SOON

An hilarious individual who had been
too frequent caller at the booze dis
pensaries along River Front deliber-
ately walked off the Rio Grande rail
road bridge Monday afternoon about
six clock and dropped twenty feet
into a small pool where the water was
perhaps a foot and a half in depth.
He was in too helpless a condition to
get out of the little eddy formed by
the Grand river and was extricated by
a couple of passersby who rushed to
the rescue. When laid out on dry land,
the booze-fghter staggered to his feet
and grunted, "Just had fine swim, -
and meandered off, describing beauti-
full series of irregular half circles in
his efforts to manage a pair of No. 10 8
made heavier by his attempts to make
Glenwood dry town.
