COULD GIVE POINTERS
TO WHITELEY'S

The baggage-express-ma car on
the Silverton branch went out this
morning with the messenger-clerk-
aboard all right, but he was not SO
prominent as usual, owing to the mis-
cellaneous collection of articles un-
der which he was buried.
Some 10 or Is years ago, one of
the big department stores in London,
Whiteley's, used to advertise that
anything from needle to white ele-
phant could be purchased at the store.
Mr.. Whitley actually sending abroad
for white elephant in order to sub
stantiate his claim.
If appearances may be taken as a
criterion, the car on the Silverton
train this morning could rival the ia
nous Whitley "ad" without half try
ing. There were some of the choic-
est examples in Easter hat boxes, and
ordinary express packages, and sacks
of mail, few handsome patterns in
trunks, besides fruit and provisions
of all kinds including bear meat
vinegar isn't that what it is generally
known by, since the flood? You can
get it by the barrel if you have the
thirst and the price. Silverton takes

UNIQUE NATIONAL PARK
FOR COLORADO.
Western Press.

w eStern Press.
WASHINGTON, D. c., Dec. 8. -
The establishment of national park
in Colorado, totally different in char
acter, it is said, from any existing
park and much closer to the center of
population than any present reserva-
tions, is recommended in number of
letters received by Secretary of the In
terror Fisher.
1.-The general idea to have a large
park at, or near the place, proposed,
appeals to me personally" said Sec
retary Fisher, "but before such action
is taken it would be necessary to have
an examination made of the territory.
Therefore it would be necessary to
submit the matter to Congress as the
department has no available money
even for a survey"
The park as proposed would in
clude portions of Grand, jackson, Lar
inner and Boulder counties and take in
Longs Peak, Grand Lake and the can
ons of the Big Thompson river.

PEk1N, Dec. 9.-Letters brought
by messenger today to the British and
American consulates give the first di-
rect news of the recent outbreak at
Sian Flu. According to the messages
5000 Manchus were killed. Eight for
eigners, among them, four Americans,
were also assassinated. Scores of
buildings were looted and burned and
banks were robbed. 1t is believed
that the imperial delegates appointed
to treat with the rebels will demand
that the emperor be retained without
power and will grant popular cleo
ton of president and cabinet heads,
strictly republican government.
No word has been received from
the province of Kan Su for several
weeks, and it is feared that mas
sacre of foreigners has occurred.
The province is inhabited chiefly by
Mohammedans who are more blood
thirsty than the Chinese.
Several regiments Of the sixth d.

COX CASE NOW IN
HANDS Of THE JURY

This morning Attorney b. b. Rus
sell argued the Cox case before the
jury until eleven o'cleak, and then At
torney Chas. A. Johnson began the
closing argument for the state.
Both attorneys reviewed the evil
dence given by the witnesses, and nat
urally they differed widely as to the
construction that should be put on it.
The attorneys for Cox argued that
he killed Will TRULY in self defense,
and the three attorneys for the state
argued that he killed TRULY without
any provocation, and that he should
be convicted of murder.
The Herald, of course, has no more
interest in the matter than any 9TH
er good citizen who wishes to see JUS
tice prevail, and therefore divining
the long drawn out trial it has careful
ly refrained from expressing any op-
inion on the case. We expected an af-
ternoon paper to give more than a
mere outline of the evidence, and the
main points that were brought out,
and this we have honestly tried to do
without injecting our own opinion
into the case.
The attorneys finished their argu-
ments this afternoon at about $3.50
and the case of the state against Isaac
Cox went into the hands of the jury.
Many on the streets are offering to
bet that Cox will be free man before
bed time tonight, but it is an old say
