CHARTER OAK
Is Visited by its Officers and by
a Colorado Stakeholder
Fine Showing.

W. j. Crane, president and
Geo. e. Hibner, general manager
of the Copper Bar mining Com
pany, of Lincoln, Nebr., and E..
Mum, the president of the First
National Bank of Brush, Colo,
a large stock holder in that COM
pany, who had been up to the
Charter Oak mine to look over
that property and to view the
workings of the new machinery
just put in commission by j. B.
Hassett, the manager of the
Charter Oak, one of the companys
most promising properties, return
ed from that place and went on
out to the railroad Friday.
While Mr.. Crane is often here,
as has been MI. Hubbard of late
years, it was only the second visit
of Nh. Mum, who expressed him
self as very greatly pleased over
the appearance oe everything in
and around the Charter Oak mine.
He was amazed at the perfect
cleanliness and discipline that
reigned in and around the mine,
as well as the richness of the vein
which iS bainU worked
Mr.. Mum is much gratiied
over the prospects of the Charter
Oak. Like every one else who
has given the mine careful exami-
nation and who is endowed with
ordinary common sense, he says
he does not see what is to hinder
it developing into a great mine
that will eventually prove a
money-maker. Mr. Mum goes
back home about the best satisfied
investor one ever saw. He is con-
fident of the Charter Oak being a
big thing in copper and he is
more than satisfied at the way
that things are being handled by
Mr.. Hassett, for whom personally
he has the warmest feeling and
the warmest praise.
The new machinery is now in
commission and the ore is being
taken out daily, as it will be from
this time on.

State Fair Notes.

The state fair commissioners
are making great plans for a big
fair this year. The attractions
will be good and include many
new features that will be n
nounced later. The races will be
first class. The premiums will be
ample and many special premiums
will be offered The fair being
held September "a to p inclusive
gives ample opportunity for OBJ
tanning samples of grain and veg
tables. The premium lists will
soon be ready for distribution.
The erection of a stock barn
will add greatly to the conven-
fence of the stock exhibit and
the premiums are quite liberal.
A number of changes have been
made in the agricultural lists of
premiums, and the number great
ly increased. 1t is urged that
every person help to make the
exhibit a good one.
The state fair is a state institu-
ton and it should not be expec-
ted that Douglas and Converse
counties should do all the work.
The balance of the state should do
it's part and assist in making it a
success. If properly assisted the
fair will be a great advertising
medium for the whole state.
Following is the race card
which has been decided upon by
the state fair commissioners:
Free for all pace, best 3 in 5 heats
$500 90
Free for all trot, best 3 in 5 heats,
$4,000
Mems relay race B miles 10000
Woman's relay race u miles

Address Chamber of Commerce.

j. b. Hassett, the manager of
the Charter Oak mine, has receiv-
ed and accepted an invitation to
address the Encampment Cham
Der of Commerce on the 22nd inst.
His talk will be mainly on the
great opportunities in this part
of the west, the general condi-
tions, etc. AS Mr.. Hassett is
one of the best posted men in the
west, especially on the advantages
and possibilities in this valley, his
talk will be of more than ordinary
interest. Mr.. Hassett expects to
attend the meeting of western
men in Denver where the public
land question will be discussed.

The Public Lands Convention.

The Public Lands Convention
in Denver, June 15 10 and 20, is
likely to have far reaching results.
1t is the first time on record when
the western states have officially
attempted to get together to dis.
cuss matters of mutual interest.
1t is generally recognized here In
the west that the people of this
section have problems that are
unknown in any other part of the
country. Conditions here are en-
tirely different from those that
prevail east of the Missouri river
and it is exceedingly difficult to
make the eastern people under
stand these conditions. On the
other hand the people of the east
having the bulk of the popula-
ton, control in Legislative mat
tiers. The only safety of the peo-
pie of the west, therefore, is to op-
pose any and every attack upon
the constitutional rights of the
state.
While every effort is being
made to rigidly exclude party pol
itics, the convention will I'M
doubtedly have an important po-
litical significance. This recogni-
ton by the people of the western
states of the mutually of inter
est that exists, will certainly have
its effect upon the future political
action. Of late years there has
been a decided disposition of the
western states to vote together
when it comes to national affairs,
This convention is not likely to
discourage his tendency, This is
one of the why the people
of the whole country is watching
the convention with so much
interest.

PRIESTS BODY PUT THERE TO
SHIELD A CRIME.
Trunk Had Been Left in Room by
Two Greeks for Rent Due-Priest
Had Been Soliciting Funds and 1t Is
Supposed Was Murdered for the
Money Carried in VaIise.

New York, May 27-Rev. Father
Kaspar Of the Armchair Apostolic
church of Hoboken, N. j., was MUIR
dered in this city some time last week.
The body was found in trunk
which had been left for security for
their room rent by two Greeks, who
three weeks ago rented a room from
Mrs. Henry Sherrer, who occupied the
third floor Of tenement at 333 West
Thirty-Seventh street
When last Wednesday the rent was
not forthcoming her dodgers told Mrs.
Sherrer that she was amply secured by
their well-filled trunk. The following
morning the men disappeared, and
today the trunk was broken open. To
the horror of Mrs. Sherrer it was found
to contain the badly decomposed body
of man. The body was in kneeling
position, with the head bound against
the knees by heavy strap that passed
over the back of the neck and was
buckled under the shins. The MUIR
dered man was about 60 years Of age
and was about 5 feet inches in
height A flowing beard IL inches
long was streaked with gray, but the
long and bushy hair was black. An
undershirt of balbriggan and cuff on
the right wrist were all the body wore,
but on top of it had been thrown three
coats of clerical cut, a white laun-
dered shirt, two pairs of black lace
shoes, a soft felt hat, two collars and
a detached cuff.
Because of the condition of the body
it was not possible to determine the
manner of death. Following an au-
topsy at the morgue two men were ar
rested on suspicion. Mrs. Sherrer told
the coroner's jury that when the two
men engaged the room in her home
they described themselves as John and
Paul Sarkie, each about 35 years OF
age. John was dark and smooth
shaver, and the man said he had con

The other wore mustache. The men
had been visited, she said, by man
wearing a clerical garb, who looked
not unlike the murdered man. She
thought that this man called at
o'clock Wednesday evening. No one
heard any unusual noises that day
After removal to the morgue the
body was identified as that of the
priest. He had lived at COS Monastery
street, West Hoboken, and frequently
made trips to this city soliciting funds
for his church.
Father Kaspar, carrying a small
leather bag in which his collections
were placed, came to be familiar

cles here, and it is believed that he
was murdered for the money he car
ried. The autopsy revealed that the
priest had probably been drugged ant
placed, while still alive, in the trunk

neck and one arm had been broken
but apparently these injuries had no
been the cause of death. Thrown upoI
the body was the priests clothing.
The coroner's physician said that the
man had probably been dead six OF
seven days. The contents of the
stomach will be examined to deter
