Not BY Spirits Alone.

A red nose Is by no means a sign
of drunkenness, and is as common
among teetotalers as tipplers. Indi-
gestion is responsible almost more
than anything else for red noses,
while excessive tea drinking is apt
to play havoc with the complexion
in general and with the nose in par
ticular. Sometimes the congested
nose is a sign Of some serious disor-
der Of the heart, or 1t may point to
a sluggish circulation. The habit of
inhaling cigarette smoke and putting
it through the nostrils may contrib
ute to the external wealth of color.

the male population, agent and en-
plOyees were all murdered, and the
wife Of Agent Meeker, his daughter
and the bIacksmith's wife at the
agency, were taken as hostages. aud
it is said that Chipeta never slept
or took a moments rest until they
were rescued. General Adams, OF
TO MearB, Chief Ouray and Chipeta
joined hands and rescued the women
and Chipeta gave them every com
mort that was possible. She was
ever humane, discreet, motherly and
merciful, in all of her tendencies,
and became not only popular with
the Indians, but so popular with the
contemporary whites during her
residence ON the western slope that
she was always pointed to as the
ideal of the Indian Women and towns
and railway stations were named for
her and she was always foremost
in the appreciation of the whites in
the neighborhood of the Indian res
ervation, and only second in esteem
to her husband, Chief ouray.
As tribute Of appreciation to her
many womanly qualities and her life
loyalty to the principles of peace and
brotherly love between the American
Indian and other resident, we, the
people of the Uncompahgre valley
contribute the sums opposite our re-
spective names, and ask that the
same be presented to her with this
petition, with the hope that she will
expend the same in manner to
render her the greatest comfort, and
trust that she may ever be reminded
thereby that the people of he I'm
compahgre valley will ever hold her
and her distinguished husband, Chief
ouray in the highest esteem.

heavy shoes. The face and flesh Oh

In the pocket of the coat 4 water

Deputy Coroner Ames went down

that murder has been commiteci, the
body was wrapped about the waist
with an old eunnysack tied with
rope which is peculiar condition but
no marks are reported which would
Indicate chat the man came to his
death by foul play
The Herald sent a telegram this
morning to the address given above
asking for information and informing
them of the finding of the body
LATER 1t is believed, at noon to-
day, that the body found is that of
an old and almost insane man who
has been for some time living alone
in little frame shack about five miles
south of town. He was known to
many as the 'castle builder" for the
reason that he has been for long
time engaged in carrying rocks and
building a solid stone wall ON the
sloping side of ravine which runs
near his shack. He had built what
he called an irrigation ditch along
side Of a small plot of ground which
he attempted to cultivate but the ditch
began and ended on the high and
dry land and could never by any pos
sibility carry water to his garden.
The directory gives the name of
this man as being Henry Rub. He
had undoubtedly at one time been a
man of considerable ability and it is
believed that he was formerly a SOL
dier in one of the European wars as
he would sometimes speak of his SOL
der days. He was a foreigner and
well educated in his mother tongue.
