DRASTIC TEMPERANCE
CHARTER PROVISION
Grand Junction Wants to Prohibit Use
Of Liquor in Any Form for
All Time to Come.

Grand Junction, Colo, July 22.-
What is probably the most drastic pro-
hibition provision. ever suggested in
any municipality was tonight report
ed to the convention which is draft
ing charter for this city. It Is not
only forever prohibits the city council
from licensing the sale or manufact-
ure of liquor, but also prohibits and
outlaws the barter, exchange, giving
away or storage of liquor within the
limits of the city, or within one mile
of it's boundaries. This In effect would
make any person who drinks liquor at
his own table law-breaker.

SHOT AT
JEALOUS FOOL
It Crashed Through Door and Wound
ed Aged Suitor So That He Will
Probably Die.

Denver Colo, July 22.-John Wig
gins, 81 years old, was shot and prob
ably fatally wounded by Mrs. Esther
Ayres, at her rooming house at 1910
Walnut street, when. maddened with
jealousy at having found letters ad.
dressed to Mrs. Ayres, he attempted
to break down the door of her apart
ment with a rock. The bullet which
halted the aged lover was fired
through the door, striking him in the
left side.
He was taken to the county hos
pital in the police motor car. Until a
late hour night hospital attendants
were unable to locate the bullet or to
decide whether any vital organs had
been pierced. He was in weakened
condition, and, owing to his age, his
recovery is considered doubtful.
Mrs. Ayres, 35 years old, who says
she fired to scare Virgins from the
premises, she having been beaten by
him just a few minutes before the
shooting, surrendered to officers Nc
Intosh and RAIDER, and asked for time
to make herself presentable before be-
ing taken to police headquarters.
Handing the revolver to Officer Nc
lntosh, she said:
Il fired when thought my life was
in danger from that jealous old fool.
He knocked me down once this after
noon, after he had accused me of
stealing his money and his insurance
papers. | am not sorry that shot,
for | think | was justified
Until two weeks ago Virgins, who
is a laborer. roomed at the Ayres
house. After beating two OF the lodg-
ers of the house he was ordered to
leave. Monday morning he returned,
the woman forgiving him for his past
offenses, and he again was installed
as permanent lodger.

BISHOP GOES TO
SUPREME COURT
Writ of Error Takes Denver Church
Controversy Up to Higher State
Tribunal.

Denver, Colo, July 22.-Bishop
Nicholas G. Matz, dissatisfied with the
district courts denial of his right to
GUST Father Joseph Carrigan as pastor
of st. Patrick's church, carried the
long drawn out controversy to the
supreme court, charging, among other
things, that the law, as construed by
the court, tends to abridge the p';vi-
leges and immunities of the plaintiff
as a citizen of the United States.
The appeal to the higher court is
taken in the form of writ of error,
and, aside from the objection of Judge
Riddles decision from a point of con-
stitutionality, it charges that the lower
court erred in holding that the COM
plant does not state facts sufficient to
constitute a cause of action.
Judge Riddle, in his decision render
ed on July 6. held that Bishop Matz
was never legally director of the
Saint Patrick's Catholic church cor
poration and therefore, not a proper
plaintiff.
The two directors held by Judge
Riddle to have control of all the prop.
erty, including the pastors residence
and the church were DR.. D. R. Lucy
and E. ]. Howard. They have been
directors in the church for many
years, and are the staunch supporters
of Father Carrigan.
1t is expected that several weeks
will pass before the case is reached
on the docket of the higher court.

New Orleans, La, July 22.-It will

loss of life at other points on the
coast besides at Tarpon Pier and also
at Cameron Parish. Several are re-

southwest of Galveston, but confirma-
tion is lacking. Cameron Parish is
cut off from outside communication.

that the time is ripe for a string OF

The purchase of the Phillies is be-
lieved to be but starter for the bring

throughout the country and the using
Of their parks for such a purpose. For
years the base ball paras of the country
have been used for only about eighty
afternoons in a year. This has resulted

til few months ago, saw no oppor-
Unity to get any revenue from their
parks except by an occasional rental to
some base ball or foot ball team.
William Murray, present manager of
the Phillies, will be given an opportunity
TO demonstrate that the failure of the
team to finish in the first division last
season cannot be fairly charged to him.
If ne can demonstrate this TO the salts
faction of President Horace Fogel and
the new owners of the club he will be
retained for another season. If he cannot
do this ne will be asked to resign and his
salary as manager for two years in adj

In this event Mr.. Fogel will assume
