Although the new Colorado game
law says that the season for doves
and sage chickens is TO begin on
August first, hunters who had plan
ned on hunt that day were forced
to postpone the pleasure till August
9TH 1t seems the governor did not
sign the bill until some time after
the Legislature adjourned, and as all
bills are now subject to the referen-
dunn for 80 days. they could not take
effect for 80 days, which will run out
next Saturday.

HIS PLEA FOR LIFE
Slayer of Trenton Couple
Tells Queer Story.
CLAIMS LAPSE OF MEMORY.
John Sears Goes on Stand In Own De-
fense In Trial For Murder of Pres
byterian Minister and Wife.
Case Ends Today.

Trenton, N. j., Feb John Sears
half breed murderer of the Rev. and
Mrs. Amzi L. Armstrong, told a re-
markable story of lapse of memory
when he took the stand in his own de
fense in the Mercer county court here.
Sears has already confessed that he
murdered the aged minister and his
wife at the parsonage of the Dutch
Neck Presbyterian church on Thanks
giving eve.
He said that he shot the Rev. and
Mrs. Armstrong, but did not know
what he was doing at the time. He
gave in detail his every action on the
day of the murder up to the time Mrs
Armstrong called him "nigger." Then,
he said, his mind became blank. He
took a double barreled gun from the
corner of the room and first shot the
minister through the heart. Mrs. Arm.
strong picked heavy paperweight
from the table and hurled it at the
head of the half breed. Sears lodged
the paperweight and then shot Mrs.
Armstrong
Sears said that he remembered Il
fash, and he thought it must have
been the flash of the gun. He remem-
bered in detail his every movement
after that time, during which he went
to New Brunswick to the rooms of his
national guard company, where he pos
ed as white man, and until the re-
turn to his home shortly after mid
night on Thanksgiving morning. Then.
according to the mulatto's remarkable
testimony, as he stepped upon the
porch to go into the house, it flashed
across his mind that he done some
thing wrong. He then realized, he
said, for the first time that he had
murdered the couple who were his
benefactors and who had taken care
of him, together with his mother, for
! thirty years. Sears said there was alb
solutely no reason why he should have
murdered Mr.. and Mrs Armstrong and
claimed that he did not know what he
was doing. He was the only witness
offered for the defense, and the case
will go to the jury after the summing
up of counsel today.

UTILIZE OLD INUTILITIES.

Employment Devised For Abandoned
Tin Shoppers For Bottles.
The latest home industry is making
doormats from the tin shoppers Of
beer and other bottles. Boys and girls
all over New York are collecting the
shoppers, and if the fad continues bot
tie stopper doormats are likely to be
a drug on the market.
The shoppers are nailed to a board
with the tops downward, leaving the
rough underside up They are placed
closely together and will quickly take
off and receive all dirt and mud from
shoes scraped on them. They form
a most effective doormat, are very
simple and cost little or nothing. Any
body with board, tacks and the stop
pers can make doormat of this kind.
Where the idea originated is not
known, but with it use has been found
at last for the shoppers of beer and
other bottles which have been hereto
fore thrown away.
