Colorado Springs, Colo August
23.-W. A. Skinner and wife Of Dali
las, Texas, who came here in July to
spend the heated term, met with sud
den death in a binding storm Of
wind, rain, hail and snow on the
summit OF Pixies Peak yesterday
morning.
There frozen bodies were found
by mere chance under a deep snow
drift near the tracks of the cog rail
road at 1850 foot altitude, and
within less than two miles of their
destination, at / p. m. yesterday, by
a boy who was attracted by a part
of the woman's dress fluttering in
the wind
Coroner Jackson was notified and
was taken up by special train and
the bodies are now in the morgue
pending orders of relatives for ship
ment to Dallas
The SINNERS started alone on
their nine-mile climb from the Man
itou depot to the summit expecting
probably, to be joined by other tour
lists as is the usual experience in the
resort season Half way up they
were oyertaken by the storm, but
continued on their journey though
insufficiently clad for the cold
At last, benumbed by cold and ex-
hausted by their efforts at climbing, |
they sat down to rest When founa |
they were in each others arms and I
had thus died, probably at the same
hour
Transportation tickets and other
etters and papers established their
and home.

CATTLE MFN TO HAVE
INTERESTING MEETING.


San Antonio. August 23-Just
what the cattle men Of Texas will DO
at their coming meeting at Fora
Worth for the purpose Of inquirlng
into the cause for the great dis
crepancy between the price of cattle
on foot and the meat on the block,
is not known, but that they are in
earnest in this effort is very much IN
evidence in all parts Of Texas. That
there is some kind of organization
somewhere that is responsible 70"
the 500 per cent increase between
the producer of meats and the con
sumer is very evident and the cat
tlemen of Texas believe they will be
able to bring this combination out in
the open and make it give an account
of itself That the increase in price
does not apply all along the line in
the products from cattle and hogs,
and that the great increase from the
producer to the consumer is conffn
ed largely to those things the people
have to have-those on which sub
sistence depends-is very apparent
when the matter is looked into care
fully is the opinion of a well known
cattleman who has given much
thought to the situation. Discussing
the subject, he said;
Take hides for instance and the
finished product from them The
increase in the price Of boots and
shoes has not been great In fact
one can buy a good pair of shoes
now for the same price that pre-
vailed five or six years ago Taka
all kinds Of leather goods, as a rule,
ard there has not been that grea
increase that has marked the upward
bound in the price of meats. If, as
some of the packers maintain, there
is an increased demand for meats
it naturally follows that if this
comes from the increase in popula
tion, that there would be a cores |
pondiDg increase in the demand for |
boots and shoes. Take any of the |
by-prOduCts from cattle and hog |
and the increase in price has been
marked the increase in the price Of
necessities. We shall do our best a
he coming meeting at Fort Worth
O locate the cause and if possible
tart a crusade that win bring about
reduction in the price of meats
nd a more equitable distribution Of
he profits"

San Antonio. Tex, Aug. 23.--The
passage of the Canadian reciprocity
bin and the proposal of Representa-
tive Burleson of Texas to put into
effect a similar arrangement with
Mexico, gives the question Of free
trade a new impetus Discussing
the proposed reciprocity with Mex
leo, Worries p Brown, editor Of the
Texas Ssockman and Farmer, and an
authority on stock raising, said:
Il am against the reciprocity
treaty between this country ana
Canada, and am strongly opposed to
a treaty between this country and
Mexico which provides for the low
ering Of the import duty on live
stock and farm products. My reas-
Ons for this are that the Texas ranch
man and farmer can not compete
with the rauchmen of Mexico in the
production of cattle and sheep, be
cause of the great difference in the
price of labor and lands in the two
countries While such a treaty
would benefit a few large corpora
tions in Mexico, it would injure
thousands of farmers and ranchmen
in the United States

During the Italian war Of 1850 young
Jean Dunant was travelling in that
country. After the battle Of SOlferinO
he visited the field. and, seeing the
terrible sulYerings Of the wounded SOL

with the assistance Of several peasant
women, formed an ambulance service.
with its headquarters in a little church
at CastigliOne. He helped with his
own hands to bind up the wounds of
Frenchmen. Italians and Austrians
alike.
They are all brothers," he said. "a
wounded enemy is an enemy no long
err" And he and his corps Of helpers
brought water and medicine and
smOOthed the pallets Of straw and
cheeretl the unfOrtunates and closed
the eyes Of the dead and performed
the last kind Offices for the dying.
Dunant was regarded by the hundreds
of wounded as a miracle Of goodness
little less than an angel. The gentle
man in white was the way in which
the officers spoke Of him rs he moved
around among the sick, his light cloth
ing making him conspicuous on the
field.
His experiences at SOlferinO. where
he saw that the willing hands Of q
