by the leading strings of the Denver
utility companies; brownie placed in
the position of fighting a giant. Such
is the plan of Senator Hughes and such
will be the result of the state, unless
Republican etitors everywhere stop
the nefarious work.
The literature emanating from Den
yer is a pure tissue of lies at best and
is easily disproved if an honest effort
is made to do so.
The progressive legislation advocated
by Governor Hughes, Senator La Fol-
lette, Senator Cummins, Senator DOLL
liver, Senator Brown. Senator Bristow
and enacted into laws by Republican
legislature in Oregon, Washington,
Minnesota, Wisconsin, Illinois. Kansas,
Nebraska and dozen other Republican
States is denominated "Populist" or
Democratic" doctrines.
The fact is that all of these measures
were advocated by the Republican par
ty in Colorado, under the leadership of
Senator Wolcott, in the state conven-
tons of 1888 and 1900 and at various
other times.
They constitute live, burning issues
before the American people and if the
Republicans of Colorado have any sense
of party propriety or patriotic purpose
they will be the unqualified and Smost
earnest champions of each and all of
them, for the Republican party has no
excuse for existence except as the fear
less champion of free and honest gov
eminent at all times and under all
circumstances.
Republican etitors in the state should
beware of the Greeks bearing gifts
from Senator Hughes and the utility
companies of Denver. Chief

DEATH FROM STRYCHN|N[
 Was the Verdict of the Cor oner's Jury in the Virgie Trucker Case.
ARRESTS MAY FOLLOW
Recommendations of the COroner's Jury Withheld From the Public
 Speculation Rife.

The mysterious conditions surround. ing the finding of the body of the wo. man at the New Dixie Roomine House on East Third avenue, Satur- day night about g o'clock, the body be- ing identified as that of Miss Virgie Tucker, about p years old, daughter of Mrs. Crook of Dumas, Ark, grew more perplexed yesterday. when Cor. oner H. E. Williams held an inquest at the court room of Magistrate J. A Frazier. A number of young men representing prominent families in this city were brought intc the case and very strong and sensational tes- timony was given by some witnesses About ten witnesses testified.
 One of the surprising testimonies was that of Dr. Harry Williams, who on Saturday night held an autopsy on the body, while it was. held in the Robinson morgue. tDr. Williams tes- tified that he found every evidence of strychnine in the body. He was in- troduced at the inquest when he tes- tified that in all probability convul- sions occurred when strychnine had been taken, but stated that it was a possibility that the body after being dead for some time relaxed and the contracted muscles relaxed Patrol. man James Hargrove. who was one of the first officers on the scene after the discovery of the death stated that the body which he identified as that of Virgie Tucker, was laying straight In thu bed at the time he viewed it. The arms were perfectly in place be- ing drawn up on the breast, according to Patrolman Hargroves' testimony and the light covering used on the bed was neatly drawn upon the body Under the arms. He stated that the body resembled very much that of a person who had laid down and quiet ly dropped to sleep. According to the testimony of Ed Daniels, proprie- tor of the rooming house, the bed was in a very neat shape. Nothing was tangled and the covering was evident that the victim had not strug- gled at the time of the death.
 Armstead Hightower, the young man who discovered the dead woman testified. He stated that Edgar Rein berger, on leaving for Texarkana Sat- urday afternoon gave him $5 bill

ALTHEIMER DEFEATS
 ENGLAND EASILY

Bats, balls and baseball gloves in hand, the Altheimer ball club gin gerly stepped from the train at Eng land on yesterday A smile was up on the face of each and each was confident of victory.
 Previously England had taken their scalp and that too upon their own ground by the frightful score of II to o. Many a fan, who had vocifer- ously proclaimed his allegiance, now turned right about face, assuming a double mien. "They cant play ball, they couldn't stop bread wagon, they are not built that way These are some of the slogans of the less enthusiastic and of those who had backslided. A day, however, was to dawn in which the ball team were de- stined to set at rest all such That day came with Fridays sun, when Vt administered unto the aforesaid Eng land drubbing, the like of which hasn't been seen since the fatal day she carried from our own beloved viii lage the banner of victory flying high

MT Violett Greeted by Large Multitude Sunday Night
 i'll Big Tent.
"A FOOLS RELIGION"
Last Night Ore" Unusually Large CrOWd-Delights His Hearers With
 Scriptural Word Pictures.

Large crowds are att ndtng the yIo. lett meetings at Fifth and Main street Inc evangelist preached Sunday morning at HOO o'clock on ''Tbe Good Confession changing his sub. Jeet from Christ n tie Home as l announced because he desires ta usa this subject for an afternoon subject some Sunday. This sermon was ably delivered as usual and vas enjoyed by numbers of visiting members Of other churches of the city Sunday evening MT Violet preached to the largest audience that has yet greeted hlm on 'Christ's UnansWered Pray CT, reading the 17th chapter of John from memory. The bg tent was crowded and hundreds of people fill ed the yard and lined the walks who listened attentively during the entire service on extremely hot evening. This was MT, Violetts very best sermon to date in the minds of the most of his hearers. He was pleading for the union of all of Gods people upon the Bible only and proved to his hearers that he was not pleading for other churches to him and his church by offering to take Dr Cline and all of his members and unite with any church in the city that would stand upon the Bible only as platform.
 Mrs. D. R. Zones of Little Rock. sang splendidly "The Ninety and Nine This solo was enjoyed very much by all present and if is hoped that Mrs. Zones can be present and sing many times during the remainder of the campaign.
 Last night the evangelist preached on "A Fools Religion reading the first twenty-four verses of the 12th chapter of Luke. He showed the folly of persons devoting all of their ener- gies to accommodating wealth in this world and neglecting the higher and better life which is to come after death. Fortytwo have been won dur ing this series of meeting to date.
 Misses Nellie Mcdonald and Geral- dine Clark favored the audience with a sweet duet last evening and Prof. Haley rendered one of his usual strong solos.
 MT Violett will preach tonight on Why I Joined the Christian Church., and the scripture lesson will be found in the fourth chapter of Ephes- ians and the sixteenth chapter of Matthew. All who can should avail themselves of hearing the evangelist on these subjects as practically all who hear him are convinced that he has message and he gives it to you straight from the Bible so that it cannot be far wrong; he is also wonderful painter of word pictures which are a delight to his hearers.

RED CROSS SEAL IN HISTORY

War-Now an Aid In Fight
Ing Tuberculosis.

Red Cross Christmas seals date
back in their origin to charity

tinued in this country for a genera
tion, although 1t found vogue in Por-
tugal. Switzerland. Australia, France.
Spain. Denmark. Norway, Russia.
Sweden and other European coun-
tries. There are now several hun
dred different types OF charity stamps
used in all parts of the world.
Stamps or seals were first used to
get money for the anti-tuberculosis
crusade In Norway and Sweden In
1904. After being used In these coun-
tries for three years. as direct re.
suit of the interest OF Jacob Riis in
tuberculosis association. headed by
this movement, the Delaware Anti
Miss Emily P. Bissell, and the Red
Cross society of Delaware combined
ia issuing a tuberculosis stamp. So
successful was this campaign that
nearly $4,000 was realized. and the
next year. in 1908. the American Red
Gross was induced to issue a national
Red Cross tuberculosis stamp. From
this sale. $135.000 was realized. that
amount being almost doubled in 1909.
This year. for the first time. the sale
is organized on comprehensive
basis, taking In all parts of the
United States. A million for tuber'
culosis work is confidently expected.
