Murray.
One of the best bills of the season
this is the popular verdict on the show
playing at the Murray this week. 1t is
an evenly balanced bill, with plenty
OF variety.
Harry Hoyt opens the show with a
routine of songs and stories that are
very good. He has lots of new gags
and a good way of handing them out.
His baseball story is most unique.
Hurley and Hurley are acrobats of
no mean ability. Their hand balanc-
ing stunts are most marvellous, and
are accomplished with ease that is re,
markable. The young lady in the act
does the under work and handles her
partner. a man of medium size, as
though he were a feather.
The Four Harmonious Girls, four
good looking young ladies', render a
number of popular selections. All of
the young ladies have good voices and
have had thorough training. They
do both solo and ensemble work and
each equally pleasing.

OUR FELLOW. .T0WNSMAN HAS
A VERY PECULIAR EXPERIENCE
While Enroute to Rocky Ford in His
Auto an Eagle Flew Through
His Windshield.

Last week, Wesley Staley,
cashier of the First National
Bank Of Arvada, experienced a
very peculiar and rather expen-
sive accident while enroute to
Rocky Ford in his auto. Now
Mr.. Staley is pretty well known
around Arvada and most people
would vouch for his truthfulness
else we would not dare to print
this story as the truth. Mr.,
Staley and his wife were driving
along a nice pleasant road when
Mrs. Staley saw a large bird
perched on the fence near by.
She enquired of Mr.. Staley as to
what kind of a bird it was and
had hardly asked the question
when the bird made a dive at
their machine and flew right
through the heavy glass wind
shield. Mr.. Staley declares that

Seth Teesdale, a Pomona fruit
grower, is now getting ready to
harvest a second crop Of June ap-
pies from the same tree in one
season. Teesdale picked eight
boxes from the tree early in July.
A month later the tree bios
somed again, and now is loaded
down with apples an inch and a
half in diameter, and almost
ready for picking. Unless there
be a heavy freeze within the
next week, Teesdale will get a
second harvest of early Junes,

the cop, for they are a rarity at
this season of the year. Tees

five victims lay. She quickly
gave the alarm, but it was nearly
dark and the officers were unable
to find anything that would fnrn-
ish clue to the slayer.
The Snowman home is small
two room cottage in the outskirts
Of Ellsworth, 300 or 400 yards
from the nearest house.
The bodies of the five victims
We're found in one room. The
father, mother and baby on one
bed and the two other children
in second bed.
The room looked like slaugh-
ter pen. There was blood on the
walls, ceiling, floor, beds and ev.
cry article in the room.
In this room was also bloody
AK which the murderer had used.
This crime is almost an exact
duplicate of the awful murder
that occurred at Colorado Springs
September 18th, which to date
has completely baflled the officers.
In Monmouth, His, a like mur-
der occurred on September Both,
when a man, wife ard child were
butchered with an AK.
The question that now arises is
whether or not these awful deeds
are being committed by one man
or different parties. The details
Of the murders and the distance
apart Of the scenes of crime and
the time elapsing between each
would indicate that one person
was travelling about with mania
to kill for the pleasure of killing.

five BUTCKERED WITH AN AK
while ASLEEP IN THEIR HOME
A Horrible Crime Similar to Colorado
Springs Murder Occurred at Els
worth, Kas., Sunday Night.

Ellsworth, Kan, Oct. 16-The
bodies of Will Snowman, his wife
and three small children were
discovered today in the Snowman
home by a neighbor who CHANGED
to call, and who entered the
house when no one responded to
her knocks. 1t is believed that
they We're murdered as they slept
Sunday night.
The features of all the victims
were battered past recognition by
the blows Of an AK, which the
slayer used. The youngest men,
Der Of the family, a baby, had
been beaten until its head was
severed from the body. All three
of the children were under five
years Of age.
Although the crime was COM
mitted last night, it was not dis
covered until six o'clock this eve
ming. The authorities have failed
to find anything pointing to the
cause Of the crime, nor clue to
the guilty person.
Last night all the members of
the Snowman family visited at
the home of Mrs. O. w. Shook,
a friend living several blocks
away. They left the Shook home
about nine O'Clock. This was the
last time any Of them were seen
alive. Mrs. Shook called at the
Snowman home a few minutes
before six o'clock. Her knock
was unanswered, SO she opened
the door and walked into the
room in which the bodies of the

olution also indorsed the plan of
the Denver Chamber of Com
merce for permanent exposition
in Denver in which each COM
mercial club of the state may
have space for displays. Under
the new law the county commits
sioners may make levy of one
fifth mill for advertising pur-
poses.
Not intending to allow all her
trouble in raising chickens to
come to naught, Mrs. Scott ofWind
sor heroically went to the de-
fense of her poultry when a big
hungry coyote made an attack
on them recently. Calling her
dog, she entered the yard and
with the aid of a lantern saw the
snarling beast. With the help
of the dog she cornered the coy
ote, then, swinging a heavy ak,
she brought it down on the coy
ote's head.
Horse thieves who have been
particularly active in the vicin-
ity, of Pueblo, for the last few
weeks but of whom nothing was
heard for several days, entered
Pueblo last night and made away
with several valuable horses.
Miss Nancy Sherlock, 1130 West
Seventeenth street, was robbed
of a fine driving horse while Ace
Tracy, residing east of this city
lost one of his most valuable
horses, which was taken from it's
pasture not far from the house
during the night.
Expecting entries from all
states west of the Mississippi, and
saying that at least 1000 birds
will be on exhibition, the Weld
County Poultry association has
completed all preliminaries for
holding its annual chicken show
in Greeley, Dec. 13, IA, Is and 16.
John Hettich of Bowling Green,
Mo-, has been secured to score
the birds. The local association
is composed of 70 men. Many
prizes will be offered. The
pigeon fanciers have asked that
their industry be recognized.
There are over 20 squad breeders
in Greeley.
The Routt County bank of
Oak Creek and the various busi-
ness houses there Saturday night
cashed checks totaling $75, 900, it
having been payday at the four
principal coal mines of this dis
trict. This is the largest amount
paid out in any one month in the
history of the Routt county coal
fields, but each succeeding month
will show still further increase.

Indian raids were a common oc-

have offered the pioneers a build

and the pioneers have practically

The management of the Dry
Farm exposition announces that
no charge will be made for ad-
mission. Failure of the congress
to secure the $40, 900 appropri-

probable that an admission
would have to be charged, but
the response of the citizens to
the request for contribution has
been liberal and the financial
problem has been simpHfied.
Alone mile from help, N. r.. Lee
saved his life Saturday by ampu-
tating the little finger of his left
hand with his penknife, when it
was crushed and held fast in a
derrick. Lee, a prominent far
mer of Johnston near Greeley,
was working on a reservoir when
the accident occurred. Neigh
bors were miles away, and med
ical aid was not to be had. He
tried to loose the finger, but it
held fast and the pain became
excruciating. Realizing that he
must act quickly, he reached for
his pocket knife and cut off the
finger.
If one of two proposition which
were made Friday to the Com
merce club is accepted, Pueblo
will operate its own coal mine
this winter, in competition with
local dealers, who are charging
prices consumers declare eXhorbi-
tant. Because the retail dealers
raised the price 25 cents per tor
at the opening of the season, the
the Commerce club and other
civic bodies have been looking
at two coal mines now in opera
ton and offered to the city, and
it is likely that one of them will
be secured, a citizen having beer
found who is willing to advance
the necessary capital. One mine
is near Trinidad and the other
near Cannon City. 1t is said
coal can be mined from either,
brought there and delivered for
$4 per ton, while $5.75 is charged
by retail dealers.

Removed Only Short Distance oS Recent Census.

Washington, July 1.-The center
 of population of the United States ss l4 1-2 miles south of Unionvliie. Mon- roe County, Indiana, according to a
 census bureau announcement today. Since 1900. when it was six mics southeast of Columbus Ind, 1t has moved 3t miles westward and seven ltenths of mile northward. The
 westward movement was more than twice that of the 1890 and 1900 de- Icade. This acceleration of the west ward movement is attributed by cen sus officials principally to the groWtn of the Pacific and Southwestern lstates.
 The geographical center of the eai- led states is in northern Kansas,
 so that the center of population therefore, is about $50 miles east Of
 the geographical center of the coun- ltry.

BLAME ICE COMPANIES.

the place all the time until just be- fore the officers came, when the father and little son started to the lcity.
 They came here from Texas, but had been out in Oklahoma. 1t is the belief of the offi,ers that if Shock Hey is not guilty of the crime of yes,- terday morning. he was a bootlegger lin Oklahoma, and believed the rev- Ienue officers were after him. The last time he left the camp, and the time that he got his Win chester rifle, he told his wife to tell lthe officers that he had his rifle and Iplenty of ammunition. and that he would not be taken alive. This the wife told the officers when they came back the second time, and she warned them against trying to take Ihim.
 With doubt as to this being tho
 man. who made the attack on the lchild, there Is some clue to the iden- ,tity of other parties. MT. Shattock, labout the Brad Smith store, yester- day afternoon saw young man en- ter the place, and in eager tones asK- ed the direction of Oaklawn. The ldirection was pointed, and about that time car came. Mir. Shattock went to ask him further if some one was Isick, thinking of the hurry of the youth, but the latter was running for Ihis car. This young man had a cap Hike that worn by the man who at. tackled the child, suited in size and
 build. was freckled, and evidently
 was the person who the child had in mind when she gave her description. The little girl identified the pony positively as the one the man had
 rode. Soon after it was brought to the city it was taken to the Dave Smith home, and the child saw it.
 At once she procaimed it the same las the man had rode. She had be- Ilieved at first the pony had reached
 mane. but was certain this was the lcne.
 When the attempt will be made to further identify Shockley is doubt lful. The man will be in very crit lical condition for some time if he lives. There is chance of blood pois-
 oDing, and only chance withal that
 his life can be saved, though ne is
 receiving every attention.
 | Dave Smith said last night that his little girl was more quieted, and that but for very sore throat she would be all right. Late in the night the officers and Dave Smith kept up their vigilance in the search for the
 man they had heard of in the after
 noon who answered the description
 by Shattock and the child, and who
 they thought might, if captured, be
 connected with the pony and with the
 assault on the child.
