About $3.50 O'Clock last evening,
accompanied by his son, the aged man
went to the interurban depot at Six
s-eenth and Arapahoe streets. Sam
Sturtevant bought ticket for his
father, but failed to give It to him.
The old man said goodbye TO his son
and boarded the train
Not until the conductor reached
him did the old gentleman realize
that he had no ticket. He also had
no money on his person. He knew
no one in the car from whom to bor-
row the money. AS a result the con-
ductcr put the old gentleman off the
train at Modder's, little station at
which there is nothing but a smelling
plant.
1t was fine night, and apparently
the vigorous old scout decided to
walk on to Boulder, 26 miles away
instead of walking back to Denver
only a few miles distant.
At 1880 pm. a freight train was
speeding toward Boulder from DEN
yer. Suddenly the glare from the
headlight brought into the view of
the Mortified engineer the body of a
man laying about feet from the
track, at point about miles from
Globeyille and about half mile from
Modder's. The train was stopped and
the body picked up. Life was ex-
tinct. There was a hole in the fore
head, one arm was smashed and brok-
en- and numerous bruises were on the
body.
The train left the body at West
minister after notifying the officials
in Denver. The body was identified
as that of Rocky Mountain Joe"
Sturtevant
1t developed that the crew of an
interurban train that went into Dem
yer from Boulder shortly after the
old man had been put off at Mod
der's saw him walking along the
track beyond Modder's. 1t seems al
most certain that the old man was
killed by the train from which he
had been elected, on its return trip
from Boulder to Denver. Just how
the aged man was struck and killed
will probably never be known.
The murder theory has been raised
but 1t is not given much credence.
The body was taken to Denver to-
day by order of the son.
1t is reported that, some time af-

FOLLOWING VISIT TO SON,
THE AGED FATHER Of LOCAL
MAN MEETS HORRIBLE DEATH

Rocky Mountain Joe" Sturtevant
father of Samuel B. Sturtevant of this
city and one of the best known from
ttersmen and scouts of the west, well
known in Grand Junction, met Il
tragic and mysterious death some
time last night on the line of the in
terurban road between Denver and
Boulder.
A message conveying the sad news
of the death was received in this
city this morning by Mrs. Sam Stur-
tevant from her husband. Sam r..
Sturtevant, manager of the Majestic
and Isis theaters of this city, who was
in Denver on a business trip, and to
see whom the aged man went from
Boulder to Denver yesterday; and It
was on his return trip to his home
in Boulder, from his visit with his
son, that he met his death.
The story of the death of the pie
turesque and widely known old gem
tleman is an extremely pathetic one
as related in extended stories in the
Denver papers this afternoon and in
messages received by The Sentinel
Rocky Mountain Joe" Sturtevant,
as he had been known for 40 years,
was a pioneer Coloradoan, a govern
ment scout throughout the Civil war
a true frontiersman and identified
with the frontier history of Montana
and North Dakota as well as with the
early history of Colorado. Some 80
years ago he went to Boulder and
there took up his residence, leaving
occasionally for short periods. How
ever, good many years ago he set
tied down in Boulder, declaring that
he would roam the wild west" no
more. He opened up a curio shop
and did quite a good business He
always insisted on wearing the buck
skin garb of the scout and he wore
his hair long. Altogether he was
most picturesque and interesting
character. He was a big-hearted.
jovial, honest man, and it is said
that nearly every man, woman and
child in Boulder county knew and
loved "Uncle Joe"
Yesterday morning. in his usual
good health, he went over from Boul-
der to Denver on the interurban, to
visit his son from Grand Junction,
who had notified him of his presence
in Denver yesterday. He was with
his son much of the day, and also Wis
tied with old-time friends among the
Denver newspaper men.

Howard Erwin, OF Longmont, is a
new arrival in the city this afternoon.
Almost daily increases are being
made in the size of the force of work
men on the interurban.
Steadily the plans for the G. A. R.
encampment here in May are going
ahead. Committees are active and
there is much enthusiasm among the
local G. A. R. members and w. r. C.
members.
The raiiroads,-the Rio Grande
and Midland. are certainly succeeding
in their efforts to get their trains in
and out on schedule time. For days
nearly every passenger train on both
roads, coming into this city, has got
ten into the city on time or within a
few minutes of schedule time.
Miss Hedvig Peterson, of 615 Col
orado avenue, the head of the Peo-
pies Mission work in this city, is
offering book to the people of this
city, which is far reaching in the
work that it is intended to accom-
plish thereby. The name of the vol
ume is Fighting the Traffic in
Young Girls, or War on the White
Slave Trade" The book has for Its
editor Earnest A. Bell, secretary of
the Illinois Vigilance association
superintendent of Midnight Missions
in Chicago. Among the contributors
are Hon. Edwin Sims, U. s. district
attorney of Chicago and host of the
foremost fighters against this horri-
BILE traffic. Miss Peterson hopes to
sell a considerable number of these
books to help along the great cause.

A story was sent out from this city
by the correspondent of one of the
Denver papers, stating that 100 stu
dents had been suspended from the
schools of this city by Supt. John
Henry Allen. Supt. Allen called up
The Sentinel this morning and re-
quested that such an unfounded
statement, which had not the mere
est color of truth, be denied. During
the petty troubles between the vari-
GUS classes not one student was ex-
PEELED, and such statements given
statewide publicity can but harm the
schools of this city.

agent of the Colorado Midland rail-

with disapproval in the highest and
