GRUESOME FIND BY BOYS
NEAR FARMiNGToN.
Decomposed Remains of Henry Parr
of Pagosa Springs, Colorado,
Found at Foot of Cliff.

Pennington, Oct 1S-Monday eve
ming about sundown some boys driv-
ing sheep from the bluffs on the south
side of the San Juan river discovered
the body of dead man. They noti-
fled Mrs. Eldredge of their find who
in turn notified G. c. Bero and Coro-
ner Fay. These two, in company
with J. S. Skaggs went over late that
night to look at the body and take
steps for it's disposal. They found it
in bad state of decomposition, the
face being entirely gone, but from
letters found in the pocket, and other
evidence, concluded that it was the
body of Henry Parr of Pagosa Springs
who came here several weeks ago to
buy sheep
Mr.. Parr was in Pennington on the
first day of the fair and then went
out to Simpsons trading post. He left
| there on the afternoon of the 26th
and that was the last seen of him. He
complained at that time that he did
not know the road and that he was
blind after dark. On the 9th some
Indians reported to Mrs. Eldredge
that they had seen a white mans pony
which was later identified as Mr..
PARIS, near the spot where the body
was later found The bride was hang
| ing over the horses head.
At the point where the body was
found the cliff is probably 40 feet
| high. 1t is the opinion of Fay and
Skaggs that Mr. Parr, having wan
dered off the trail late at night, got
off and led his horse while he was
looking for the road and unwittingly
walked off the cliff, meeting instant
death. Others are of the belief that
Mr.. Parr met with foul play, claiming
that the Indians who saw the horse
knew all the time that the body was
under the cliff nearby A thorough
investigation will be made and If mur-
der was committed steps will be TAX
en- to catch and punish the guilty par
ties. The body being in bad state
of decomposition, was treated with
chloride of lime and embalming fluid
and covered over until son of the de-
ceased arrived from Pagosa Springs.
He had the remains shipped to his
home in Pagosa.

ing and nobody expected the wallops
Eat came. Here are some of his
slaps:
We shall progress regardless of
the harangers of demagogues drunk
with their own conceit.
"The future depends not upon ar
rogant dictators.
They may buster, but they merely
bark at the heels of progress.
THE spirit of unrest and develop
ments toward anarchy are largely due
to the crazy conceit and the dicta-
ton of demagogues.'
True virtue is not a matter of
money of social rank, certainly not of
noisy pretense of harangues on the
hustings. 1t does not buster. 1t Is
taught at the mothers knee better
than in excited crowds.
Thus the reliance of free instltu.
tions is on the common people. Their
thought, their sense, their convictions,
must control society and government.
They will heed advice, warning, re-
buke, appeal; but they spurn com
mand, compulsion, the insolence of
dictation.
Doubtless sneering cynics and crit
les have their use in the benevolent
scheme. They may bluster and bark,
but they are but episodes.
