Cattlemen or Accidental.

Grand Junction, Colo, Aug. A.
Alsedolas Zero, sheep Iherder en-
ployed by Goslen brothers, was killed
on Pinon mesa, in the disputed cattle
and sheep territory, thirty miles south
of this city. Word of his death was
brought by James S. Laphan, and
Coroner Day left at once to investi-

due to an accident and that the Mex

and discharged it himself.
Comrades of Zero think, however
he was killed by cattlemen. They are
excited over the tragedy and fear flu
ture results. This is the first death
since the recent outbreak between
Colorado cattlemen and Utah sheep
men, and the cattlemen insist Zerrc

Freest of Scotland Yard, again today
gave his personal assurances that not
a single word had been received from

Crippen, made his first move today

WILL GIVE CLOTHING TO
5000 POOR CHILDREN.
Charity to Be One of Features of In
dependence Celebration in Cap
itaI of Mexico.

Mexico City, Aug. Ain addition to
their plan to give clothing to 5000
poor children OF the public schools
during the centennial independence
celebration in Mexico next month the
ladies of the Society of the Protection
of School Children purposes several
permanent charities, such as the es-
tablishment of restaurants for pupils
who are often compelled to attend
school without sufficient nourishment,
and a shop in which clothing for the
children will be made.
The ladies have issued a circular
appealing to the merchants of the cap
itaI for their assistance.
The restaurant plan contemplates
giving wholesome food to all children
who may be certified by their teachers
as being too poor to obtain enough to
eat otherwise. In the clothing shop
many persons will be employed to
make garments for the little ones.
Some of the most influential women
in the capital are behind the move
ment to help the school children. They
insist that this is the noblest work
that has been undertaken this centen
NAL year, and they are finding many
supporters among those who are able
to give to aid the cause in which they
are engaged.
