HIS HEAD TORN
FROM HIS BODY

Selecting a most horrible and dia-
bolical method. f. b. Milroy, an aged
prospector, killed himself in the
rooming house at 1873 Colorado ave-
nue. yesterday morning about nine
O'Clock. He took a shot gun which
he had rented from Bart Lynch. the
gunsmith, on Saturday night, filled
1t with a load of heavy shot. and then,
from all indications took the gun be-
tween his legs as he lay on the bed
in his room. pulled the trigger with
his toe and with the barrel end either
in his mouth or on his chin, literally
blew the whole top of his head off.
Only that portion of the head below
the upper jaw was left on the body.
The mans brains, and portions of the
skull and face were spattered all
over the ceiling and walls when the
people, alarmed by the shot. rushed
into the room II was sight indie
scribable in its horror and grew
someness.
The remains of The man were
taken in charge by County Under
takers Cosgrove & Slough. Coroner
Day visited the scene of the tragedy
and as the evidence of suicide were
so apparent it was decided that an
inquest was not necessary Owing
to the horrible condition of the re-
mains the burial took place yester-
day afternoon The deceased was
buried at the expense of the county.
Milroy was about 5S years of age.
He had been in Grand Junction about
80 days. For many years he was
employed in Dining in various sec
tions of the stdto. Later he worked
/ for sheep men as a herder
Milroy came here about thirty days
ago. as stated above. and securing a
room at l33 Colorado avenue paid
/ the rent for one month in advance.
/ He had but little to say 10 anybody
and spent much of the time in the
house. lie was morose and melan-
choly but he was not a drinking man.
/ He seemed TO be worried over his
| affairs but made no complaint to
anybody He said nothing to any
body of his determination TO end his
/ life but there is every indication that
his suicide was deliberately and
calmly planned.
The man left no note of explana-
ton. On his body was found little
over dollar in change. an unim-
portant letter, and an old hunting
license issued in Montana.
The suicide was one of the most
diabolical and appalling that has even
occurred in this section.
Milroy had but few acquaintanees
IN the city. 1t is not known where
any relatives reside.

ALL READY FOR
THE ELECTION

Everything is in readiness for the
municipal election which occurs in
Grand Junction tomorrow, an cleo
tion that promises to be the bitter
est municipal struggle that Grand
Junction has ever witnessed. All
parties will practically conclude
their campaigning tonight.
The polls will open at o'clock
tomorrow morning and will remain
open until O'Clock tomorrow even
ing. Owing to the fact that there
are three distinct ballots for the vot-
er to handle. the ballot containing
the list of nominations and the local
option question, the ballot on the
charter question and the ballot on
the bond issue. it will be impossible
to ascertain the result of the voting
in any one ward much before mid
night, and it will probably be much
later in the night before several of
the wards are heard from.
City Clerk Conley has the election
supplies. ballots. etc, ali ready for
delivering to the judges tomorrow
morning in time for the opening of
the polls. The booths have been
placed in position.
Some people are expecting an ex-
citing day tomorrow. others are pre-
dieting that the election will move
off quietly and that there will be no
disturbances. Each party expects to
have a large number of workers in
the field. Every automobile and al
most every carriage in the city has
been engaged for tomorrow by one
side or the other.
Beyond doubt the vote will be
the heaviest ever cast in Il Grand
Junction election.

TO Boulder by the mistakes of the
present administration.
MIR. Davis said the business smen

ter the material interests of the com
munity ns well as the law, and the
pledge of the party was to harmonize
the differences and allay the strife
which during the past two years had
resulted so disastronsly to the busi-
ness interests of the city.
Mr., Moys said that the name of
the opposition party, Better Boulder

attention of people outside of the
town. He said the Citizens party
did not stand for the saloon and he
hoped that the vote for il would be
so large that the question would be
decided once and forever.

MESA COUNTY is DEEPLY
INTERESTED IN MEASURE

Secretary Mahoney, of the
Chamber of Commerce, received
u message this morning from
Denver to the effect that House
Bill No. I:S, providing for the
consolidation of rural schools
and the transportation of pupils,
had passed the senate on third
reading and as il had. already
passed the house il is now up to
the Governor for his signature.
If the governor signs this bill it
will be possible for rural schools in
any county of the state to CONSOLE
date and erect one big school, with
high school and graded departments,
at central point, to be attended by
the pupils of the districts interested
in the consolidation.
\ number of the leading rural
schools of this county are seriously
considering such a move if the bill
becomes effective and there is but
little doubt that the governor will
sign the bill
Secretary Mahoney was especially
delighted TO hear of the success of
the bill as for seven years he has
been one of the most earnest advo-
Gates of the passage of such a bill by
the legislature. He had charge of
the bill at two sessions OF the legis-
lature but its final passage at each
of the sessions was delayed by the
forging ahead on the calendar of
other measures right at the last of
the session.
1t is a most important measure and
will prove a great boon to country
school of Colorado.

ed S112,0O0 worth of land in Pecos
Palisade at $4,000 per acre and made
30 per cent on their investment. as
the Redlands has gone to $4,000 per
acre. This price will not last long
as the land is nearly all sold and
they will surely so to $1,000 per
acre inside of thirty days. Now is
your opportunity to get in before an
other raise in price. Every rancher
from this vicinity who have seen the
land bought just twice as much as
they intended to. These men claim
that in a few years that it will equal
