MOON-AUSMUS
MURDER CASE
ALLEGED CONFESSION OF ACcES.
sorry TO THE MURDER OF
MCDOWELL.
IS NOW IN MARYLAND
FRED ElZENBART, WHO FORMER.
LY LIVED NORTH OF
BRUSH.

Denver.-A Republican special from
Brush, Morgan county, Tuesday night
says: 1t is reported here today that
Fred Eizenbart of Hagerstown, Mary
land, has confessed to being an acces-
sorry to the murder of Robert B. Nc
Dowell, ranchman, who was killed
near here some four years ago.
cara Moon and John Ausmus were
convicted of this murder and were
sentenced to life terms in the peni-
tentiary, which they are now serving.
They were convicted on circumstantial
evidence and many in the county
thought they were innocent.
Mcdowell lived in lonely spot on
Wildcat creek, about ten miles north
of here, running a bunch of cattle
and horses and never mingling with
people except on business. Moon and
Ausmus were with him a great deal,
and had worked for him at different
times during the spring prior to his
disappearance. In March, 1904, he dis
appeared and was thought to have
left the country. Moon and Ausmus
claimed that he had gone north.
His horses and cattle were sold by
Ausmus to a party at Brush, and the
entire business was closed up through
Ausmus, he claiming to have power of
attorney to close the deal. The bill of
sale of the stock was signed by Nc
Dowell with an "X,' as he could not
write, and the signature was witnessed
by Moon and Ausmus. This and other
papers which were signed at that
time were proven to be forgeries and
it was also proven that the money paid
for the stock was divided between
Moon and Ausmus.
There was a portion which could
not be accounted for and it now ap-
pears from the alleged confession of
Eizenbart, that there was third party
implicated in the murder. Eizenbart
is quoted as saying that the murder
was committed by Moon and that the
proceeds of the sale of the cattle and
horses was divided between Ausmus,
Moon and himself. 1t is said he made
the confession while drunk before
three witnesses, two of whom have
made affidavits as to the confession.
Eizenbart was a well known charac-
Ter who drank a great deal and did
odd jobs. 1t is thought by some that
the confession being made while he
was intoxicated he really did not know
his own mind at the time. He had
never been known to have been mixed
ZIP in any crime, and other than being
addicted to drinking had no bad hab
its. He comes from a good family in
Maryland and was at one time Scot
tish Rite Mason
Sheriff Burdett wired the authori
ties in the East to arrest the man and
hold him until he arrives.

Mothers ACCOMPLISHMENT.

In the Bohemian set of New York
two of the popular members are well
known writer and his wife, who also
has written several books. They have
a daughter about four years old. Re-
Gently the little girl was visiting at
the home of friend and her small
playmate asked her: Can your
mamma sew"
The daughter of the literary pair
evidently was a bit chagrined. She
could not remember that she had ever
seen her mamma sew. She is truth
full child and would not claim any ad
vantages she was not sure of, yet she
felt that mammals honor was at stake
Il don't know If mamma can sew"
she replied, obviously, "but she can

How He Was Persuaded.

Down in Alabama" said John d.
Fearhake, there's deputy marshal
who doesn't let any such trifles as ex-
tradition stop him. Term of court
was about to begin at one time and a
gentleman who was out on bail was
reported to be enjoying himself over
in Georgia. Deputy Jim went after
him. Next day he telegraphed the
Judge: I have persuaded him to come.
A few days later he rode into town
on a mule, leading his prisoner tied up
snugly with a clothes line. The pris-
oner looked as if he had seen hard SER
vice. Why, for heavens sake, Jim,"
said the judge, you didn't make him
walk all the way from Georgia, did
your No, sir said Jim. 4 hoped
not said the judge. No. said Jim,
part of the way drug him, and when
we came to the TallapooLl river he

Will Rush Great Reservoir.

Boulder, Colo. = Commencing this
week an increased force of men will be
put to work on the Twin Lakes reser-
voir of the Eastern Colorado Power
Company, maps and filing for which
were made short time ago with the
clerk and recorder of this county. The
lam will be 5000 feet long and about
so feet high. 1t will impound about
6OO,OO0,0o0 cubic feet Of water and the
estimated cost is 100000.
This reservoir is auxiliary to the
Nederlanl and Barker Meadow reser-
voirs, in the mountains, which are be-
Ing constructed to hold back the flood
waters of Boulder creek. in order that
uniform flow of the stream may be
maintained for the power plant near
Boulder.

On Sweeping Day.

To prevent making dust in sweep
ing, use moist sawdust on bare floors.
If the room is carpeted, moisten a
newspaper and tear it into small
scraps and scatter upon the carpet be-
fore beginning to sweep. AS you sweep,
brush the papers along by the broom,
and they will catch most of the dust
and hold it fast. Be careful, however,
not to have either sawdust or paper
dripping wet. In busting a room do
not use a feather duster, because it
does not remove the dust from the
room, but only brushes it into the air,
so that you breathe it in, or it settles
down, and then you have to do the
work over again.
Use soft, dry cloths, and shake them
out the window frequently, or use
slightly oiled or moistened cloths and
wash them out when you have fin
ished.

Dishonest Politician Gets Little Salts
faction from Promise.

Congressman Longworth, at a din

in Chicago, talked about honest poll
tics.
Honest politics alone pays in the

tician comes out like Lurgan of Gin
cinnati. Lurgan was canvassing for
votes. He dropped in at grocer's.
"'Gcod morning. he said I may
count on your support, l hope"
Why, no, Mr.. Lurgan,' said the
grocer. I've promised my support to

"Lurgan laughed easily.
"'Ah, but, in politics. said he,
promising and performing are two
different matters.
I'm that case said the grocer
heartily, shall be most happy to
give you my promise. Mr.. Lurgan.'

The farmer set out to meet him, but

EGG PLANT IN TWO WAYS.
Stuffed or Escalloped, 1t Will Be
Found Excellent.

Stuffed Egg Plant.-Cut the egg
plant in two, lengthwise, and scrape
out the pulp with a spoon, leaving the
shell nearly half an inch thick so that
it holds its shape Cover the shells
with boiling water, adding salt and
place the pan, covered, on the range,
keeping it at almost the boiling point
while preparing the filling. Allow the
shell to become tender, but not soft.
Chop the pulp rather fine, add to it
one level teaspoonful of salt, dash
of pepper, and simmer in a tablespoon
full of butter till soft, stirring to pre-
vent burning. Add half teaspoonful
of grated onion, a scant half teacupful
of minced cooked veal or chicken, half
a teacupful of bread crumbs; mix well
and fill the shells. Place them in a
well buttered pan, sprinkle with
grated bread crumbs, add a light
sprinkling of salt and pepper and bits
of butter. Bake for As minutes, hav-
ing the tops nicely Drowned.
Escalloped Egg Plant.-Cut the egg
plant lengthwise into quarter inch
slices and cover with boiling salted
water. When cool enough to handle,
arrange half the slices on a well but
tered baking dish; then add layer of
bread crumbs to which has been added
little finely minced parsley and salt
and pepper to taste. Place the re
naming slices upon these, sandwich
fashion, pour melted butter over them,
followed by a sprinkling of bread
crumbs, lightly salted and peppered,
and finish with a sprinkling of grated
cheese. Bake in oven to fine brown.

HOW TO MAKE COLD MEAT LOAF.
Far Better Than Any Warm Hash
During the Summer.

avoid warm hashes in summer,
and have in their place meat loaf
that can be served cold" writes Chris
tine Terhune Herrick in Woman's
Home Companion. Chop your rem
nants of steak or roast fine, mix with
them one-third as much cold boiled
ham or tongue, season well, and add
a couple of raw eggs beaten light. If
rather dry, moisten with gravy or
stock, turn into a creased mold with
plain sides, cover, set mn baking pan
with hot water about it, and bake for
an hour. This loaf may also be made
with raw beef, but then it must cook
for two hours. Let it get very cold
before turning out, and slice. Veal
loaf may be prepared by this recipe.
and even cold roast lamb may be
treated in the same manner. The
main point to be borne in mind is the
seasoning. Be careful that this is well
done and you will have popular
dish"
