There are 500 places where every man

whose benefit the little pleasantly was
devised refuses Indignantly to believe
the man she loves guilty of any wrong
Florence Parker, of course, is the trust
full young woman and the way she pro-
claimed her trust leaves no doubt as to
her sentiments.
Murder Most Foul
Thrill No. 2 is the murder of the
badger. young woman and must be
added to the long list of melodramatic
crimes of which Charles Caulkins has
been guilty since the Ulrich company
opened its season. OF course Charles
Gum, the hero, is accused, tried and
condemned to death on perjured testi-
money. He is incarcerated-thats a
good melodramatic word, incarcerated;
no genuine melodrama is complete with
out it-in Sing Sing prison, from which
he escapes.
Then follows a man hunt with Gum as
the runaway and thrills follow in such
rapid succession that no enumeration Is
possible. In the end villainy is exposed,
as usual, and virtue comes out on top.
Things always happen so In melodrama.
But the mannerSof the expose is unique.
When the bloodthirsty Caulkins struck
down his victim the hot ash from his
cigar fell into a fiashight powder care

pose BY Frank Frayne, masquerading as
a janitor.
The Psychological Moment
This, Of course, is the psychological
moment Caull1ins, in addition to ignit-
ing the powder also steps upon the little
bulb which snaps the camera and the
trick is done. Had the picture been de-
veloped earlier the plot couldn't have
been developed at all; but this, for
ture does turn up in time to prevent the
greatly harassed Miss Barker from be-
ing forced into a marriage with the man
she loathes.
There's more to the plot, but that's
enough in all conscience. An extrava-

BECOMES VIOLENT
IN HOSPITAL WARD, THREATENS
pAMNATIoN
Antoine Prekorsky Orders Police, His
"soIdIers," to Compel Respect
for Him from Saliva
ton Army

"I am personal representative OF the
Supreme Power Do not dare to lay
hands on me or I will send you all 10
everlasting damnation," cried Antoine
Prekorsky at the Sisters hospital yes
terday morning, astonishing the nurses
and frightening the other patients.
When approached by the attendants
Prekorsky was found to be violently In
sane and 1t was necessary to call PATROL
man Banks to quiet him.
When the officer arrived he found the
attendants at the hospital laboring under
great excitement. Prekorsky has prom
ised those who were good and would
kneel to him life of everlasting peace
and happiness, while those who refused
to recognize him as representative OF
God he threatened to punish with fire
and birthstone.
After being taken to the receiving hos
pital Prekorsky insisted on making an
address to the officers and physicians
who were present
"You men are my soldiers" he said to
the policemen, 'and any of you who do
not obey my orders I will turn into
dumb beasts.
"In few minutes I will give the COM
mand and we will then march down the
street and close up the quarters of the
Salvation Army. The members of the
army do not pay me proper respect.
When 1 attend their meetings they do
not sing my praises, but instead put me
out in the street. do not like the way
they worship and 1 have decided to
march against them with my men.
Demands Obedience
'You are good soldiers and have done
many nice things for me in the past.
For that 1 thank you, but will insist on
even more implicit obedience in the
future
After being placed in bed in the hospi-
tai Prekorsky became more violent and
1t was necessary to chain him to the
bed in order to keep him from injuring
the other patients. All during the day he
continued to rave of the power which
had been given him.
He will be taken to the county hospi-
tai today where he will be examined by
physicians and an insanity complaint will
be sworn to.

KING r,vTD AND JUSTICE
 GEAIG

Evlds-..y Justice Craig of the Yukon territorial court, has had an experi snoe that is akin ia one respect, at least, Co that of famous king Of Israel. King David Is quoted as saying that "sI men are liars. Now comes Jus tIoe CraIg, who, using the language of ,he 2Osh century lawyer rather than that oIs B. c. king, says that per jury Is common In the Yukon"
 There Is this difference, however in the incidents: The man who chro- nIoIed and edited the famous remarks of David lnseriscted the observation that he spoke "in his haste" but DO has said ,hs, the judicial poise of Jus tIee Crslg has been disturbed in any way.

The latter is having a census taken and a petition signed ou hls own account.
 Mir. Grimm thinks the population or Skaq way Is iu excess of ,O0O and he fears tbat an effort will Le made to show that it is less than that number, hence bis independent action.
 The saloon men who are paying the expsuseg of the census which is being taken by the city and the city author ities say that all they want is fair count, and MT. Hart says that is what they will get.

OPENS TODAY

On d. & r. G. No. 3 Sunday, w.
II. Mccall, a non-union operator, ar
rived in the city to open the Office of
the Western Union Telegraph COM
pany. He was supplied with a key
to the office by Superintendent Leo
nard and the keys were soon click
ing.
He had taken about half a dozen
messages when a crowd of boys and
few men began to make it disagree
able for him and he closed the office
temporarily, asking for protection
from the Chief of Police O'Neil
On the screen door of the tele-
graph office the words "Scab opera
tor were written, with blue pen
ell and several posters pasted on
the side of the building with the
same inscribed upon them.
A committee of the Railway teleg-
raphers called on Mccall and endeav-
ored to induce him not to open the
office. He said that he could not be
induced to let up in his purpose to
support the Western Union, If they
talked to him a thousand years. He
had been working for the Western
Union for twenty years and thought
he knew which side had treated him
the best.
Mr.. skeggs of the Railway teleg-
raphers talked very PLEASANTLY to
the new operator, Mccall and en-.
deavored as far as it was in his pow
er to show him the error of his ways
but he could not convince Mccall thai
he was not acting within his rights
Last night Mccall did not open the
office, but this morning the office was

ON STYLES
VERY TIMELY
Information Contained In
Interesting Letter From
Popular Clothier---Brown
Will Be The Color This
Fall---Season's Whims.

Some exceedingly and timely and
! interesting information regarding the
styles and modes that will prevail in
mems clothing and toggery this COM
ing fall and winter is given out in
letter received from NJ H. Loefler
/ the well known clothing man of this
city who has been in Chicago for
the past ten days buying goods, study
ing the styles and figuring out i'm
provements for the Loeffler stores in
Grand Junction and Palisade and
there is but little doubt that when he
returns Mike" will be right up to
the minute on what is the proper
thing.
Mr.. Leoffler states that he finds a
decided tendency in gentlemen's suit
ings toward brown shades, though
no plain browns are being shown.
The three-button low lapel sack
coat still has the call.
There is no decided change in coat
lengths, though some firms are show
ing trifle shorter coats than prevail
ed the last season.
Fairly loose effects are coming in
and we are gradually but surely get
ting back to the full box effects of
several years ago.
Speaking of hats Mr.. Loeffler,
says that this coming season
along with the brown hunting brown
hats will come in for their share of
popular favor; the telescope is still
riding the crest of popularity, it is
being shown in several shades of
brown. also in greys and various other
shades.
Some smart dressers will favor
the brown derby.
Fall derbys are somewhat rounder
on top than for several seasons, while
the brims have a tendency of getting
smaller, and l really fear we will
wear a brimless bonnet in a season
or two.
That a man must be heard, at least
by the variety of his clothes we CLEAN
from the fact that shirts, neckwear,
hosiery are for the coming season, the
noisiest ever, but withall we will
more than ever enjoy our clothes, this
coming season, such variety and
blending of colors as man is allowed
will not sven be eclipsed by our
fair sisters"
