Tho Eault Of the Gun.

A successful oeulist, of Baltimore,
recently put in day or two with his
new shotgun IN the reedbird marshes

the other barrel he invariably missed,

In order TO bring the matter TO test.

WON'T PLAY SECOND FIDDLE.
johnson OF Minnesota Won't Accept
Second Place On The Ticket.

A dispatch sent out from the
headquarters in Chicago of Gov.
John A. Johnson of Minnesota
states that the governor will not
permit the nomination of Mr..
Bryan by the democratic con.
vention at Denver without a
struggle.
Through his campaign manag-
er Mr.. johnson has announced:
81 will not accept the nomi-
nation for the vice-presidency
under any. circumstances. If
there is such a nomination ! shall
compel the national committee to
make another choice"
Although the Bryan following
announce they have two thirds of
the delegates instructed for
Bryan, .Iohnson's forces are far
from quitting. They claim to
have found scandal in the
democratic party which is a black
cloud on the Bryan horizon.
Manager Nappen of the John
son forces says:
"We have some conventions to
hear from. Bryan has not two
thirds of the delegates yet. We
are going into Denver to win the
nomination for Mr.. Johnson and
not to have him in second place.
People say it would be a strong
ticket. 1t will never be a ticket.
If Mr.. Johnson is nominated he
will not accept under any circum-
stances. We will open head
quarters in Denver to begin the
fight the latter part Of this week."
Notwithstanding these declar-
ations of the Johnson forces, no
one outside of their ranks has
ventured the assertion that there
is any possibility of anyone being
a factor for first place on the
ticket but Bryan.

was cooking on a coal oil stove, and
had left 1t for few minutes. Upon

was turned in but the nearest water
hydrant was too far away to be o.

several articles of furniture from the
flames, but everything else was de-
stroyed The loss is about $1,000, and
insurance $3.50. Mr.. Reeves IL a wagon

he tripped and fell. Policeman Dam
lei Cronin, who was among the Wor-
slippers, wrenched the gun from Alias
hand and dragged him to the street
in an effort to protect him from the
maddened worshipers. Outside, the
policeman and his charge were sur
rounded by several hundred people
who were about to tear ALA from the
officers hands when several priests
and Franciscan brothers appeared on
the steps and pleaded with the en-
ragged people to leave the avenging OF
the awful murder to God. The pres
ence of the ecclesiastics interceding for
the life of the destroyer of beloved
brother had effect. The single police
man was permitted to take ALA away
in a buggy hastily driven to police
headquarters. Several hours later
Ala was spirited out of town in an au-
ton1obile and taken to Colorado
Springs for safekeeping.
Trial Was Very Brief.
The trial was comparatively brief
but every opportunity of defense was
given. Insanity was offered as plea
to escape the moose The best alienists
In Denver testified that Ala was sane
and he was sentenced to be hanged.
A petition from citizens in Alias ma
tive town OF Italy pleading for his
life and declaring that he was un-
doubtedly insane, was forwarded to the
italian consul here but for some rea-
son unexplained was never presented
to the governor. Many believe that the
murder Of Father Leo was part OF an
anarchistic plot against the Catholic
clergy but nothing has recently trans
pired tending to substantiate this view.
Previous to coming to Denver Father
Leo lived at Paterson, N. j. Paterson Is
the headquarters Of the franciscan
monks in this country and 1T has been
thought possible that he incurred the
enmity of some one or perhaps group
of anarchists there, personal in its ma
ture and applying only to him. His
great popularity and goodness of heart
went strongly to disprove this theory
and no evidence to support 1t has come
to light. Whether or not Ala brooded
over fancied wrongs until his mind be-
came diseased, it is admitted that for
years he had entertained hatred for
the priesthood, and on this Sunday
morning when the chimes sounded
from the church he had apparently lost
ali power Of control for good but the
cunning of evil remained. The result
was murder which has no parallel In
history.

Harlan, July ia few days ago
Wesley Jones of Ute, Ia, and r. F..
Jones of Kimball ELL, passed thru
Harlan on their way to Macedonia,
Ia, to visit their brother, Joseph
Jones, who is seriously ILL., This fact
of itself would not call forth any par
ticular comment. When, however, 1t
is known that the two brothers, Wes-
ley and Joseph, had not seen each
other for thirty-seven years, 1t be-
comes interesting.
1t was in the winter Of 1901 that
Joseph Jones paid a flying visit to
his brother, and since that time the
one has lived at Ute and the other
at Macedonia or Harlan, not mora
than seventy-five miles apart at any
time, yet neither had seen the other
or written in all that time. One had
been married in the meantime and
both had raised family of men and
women who in turn had married and
had families. There was no estrange-
ment between them and each had a
brotherly feeling for the other, but
had become careless and contented
themselves with occasionally hearing
from each other thru relatives and
friends Both were we'll to do, pros
porous farmers, but "stuck too close"

brother, Joseph, few weeks ago be-
came dangerously i'll his heart went
out to his brothers and he longed to
see them. They at once hurried to
his bedside.
