COLONEL FREDERICK W. GROSS
SHOOTS HIMSELF AT ROOM
ING HOUSE IN DENVER.
BECAME DESP0NDENT
FAMILY TROUBLE AND pissiPA-
rloN LEAD TO DIVORCE AND
DEATH.

Denver.-Suicide eliminated week
of wild carousal brought on by the d.
yorce of his wife for Colonel Frederick
w. Gross Saturday afternoon. when he
shot himself through the head in the
M!stletoe rooming house, 1902 Cleve-
land place. Since his wife obtained
divorce three weeks ago., the officer
who distinguished himself for valor
during the Spanish war, is said to have
taken the path which ended in self de-
struction.
Since the Cripple Creek troubles, at
which time Gross served as assistant
paymaster with the rank Of colonel,
when he became involved in difficulty
regarding certain funds wSich has new
er been satisfactorily adjusted, it is
said that he has seen trouble in many
directions.
The history of c., onel Gross is one
of bravery and chivalry until domestic
divorce. He first came into the notice
of the public during the first year of
the Spanish-American war. He enlist
ed as a non-commissioned officer with
Company B of the first Colorado volun-
teers. The young soldier early dis
tinguished himself for his bravery on
the field. 1t is said of him that he
was always more thoughtful of his men
than Of himself, and underwent any
number of privations for the sake of
them. His worth was soon recognized
and he was made commissioned Of
ficer with the rank Of second lieuten-
ant. He served throughout the war
and returned with the gallant volun-
teers to his native state.
Upon his return in 1900 he married
Miss Gertrude Baines, a Denver girl,
whose affection he had won not alone
through his merit as a man but his
worthy record as a soldier. With the
outbreak of trouble during the strike
in Cripple Creek Lieutenant Gross en-
listed with the National Guard. He
was made assistant paymaster.
After the strike trouble arose re-
garding the disposition of funds which
Gross and his associates had made in
their official capacity. During the tur-
bulent times Gross was figure in the
Chase courtmartial and was men
toned as successor to General Sher-
man Bell.
In 1906, Gross obtained work as as
sistant superintendent of collections
for the telephone company under his
cousin, George Gross, head Of the de-
partment. Early in the month of Sep
tember, Gross is said to have been dis
charged. Soon after, and, 1t is said, as
a direct result, his wife sued for d$
vorce. The case came up in Judge
Bliss division of the District Court
about three weeks ago. The divorce
was obtained with the provision of
monthly alimony of $50.

MARK TWAIN A HERO.
Humorist Dashes Through Yeasty Foam
Rescuing Girl from Being Swept
Overheard.

NEW YORK, April 14.-Samuel L.
Clemens Mark Twain, who arrived
with II. H. Rogers on the Bermudian
of the Quebec Steamhsip line yesterday
had a hairbreadth escape from being
swept into the Atlantic ocean during
a tempest that tossed the ship like Z
cookie shell. The humorist was one of
a few who ventured on deck during the
6O-mile gale, and his companion was
Miss Dorothy Sturgis, daughter Of a
vell-known New York architect. Mr.
Clemens had Miss Dorothy by the arm
and they were making great sport of
their hazardous progress down the prom
enade deck, slipping from side to side
as the wind buffeted them and the
spray dashed in their faces. Both were
confident that the seas would not roll
big enough to sweep along their range
of deck. Suddenly a giant comber hurl-
ed itself slantwise at the ship and burst
in a deluging cloud of water over the
rail. A swirl of the water descended
upon Mark Twain and the young girl
and snatched her from his protecting
arm She was swept from him and
down into the scuppers. Then Mr.. Gle
mems feet went out from under him
as another wave pounded over the side,
but he managed by an agile movement
to catch the rail and save himself. AS
soon as he could gain his feet he caught
the girl in his arms and carried her
safely to gangway and down into the
shelter of the ca bin.
