Joseph Stevenson. the birdman who fell from his biplane Monday afternoon at the fair grounds died early yesterday morning as the result of the fatal in juries inflicted He never regained con- sciousness after the administering of the anesthetic for the operation performed by physicians at the Robinson infirmary, and lived for ton hours in an uncon- scious condition.
 From the time that Stevenson was placed in Johns ambulance at the State Fair grounds not single ray of hope was given by attendant physicians to the grief stricken wife. All during the night Mrs. Stevenson remained at the bedside of her husband, holding his hand constantly and begging him to recog- nize her. It was feared that the bird mans wife would collapse when her hus- band came to the end. as was expected. coax her away to lie down and rest. She refused, saving that she would stay by her husbands bedside until death came.
 At 3:SO o'clock Dr. Robinson. Mrs. Stew enson, two nurses and another doctor were seated around the bedside of the wounded man. Dr. Robinson had whis- pered word of encouragement to the waiting wife, saying that there still might be hope. They had done all that human skill could do and were forced to await the end. pr. Robinson looked at his watch and smiled again reassuringly at Mrs. Stevenson, when she leaned over and placed her head and hand on the breast of the unconscious man.
 She sprang to her feet with anguish on her face and cried: He's dead, doctor, he's dead" Aviator Joseph Stevenson had passed away while they sat and watched, hoping for his return to consciousness.
 His wife nor any of his friends ever heard him speak after leaving them to make the ascent In his biplane Monday, and although experts have attempted to ascertain the cause of the accident, they have been unable to arrive at a conclu- sion.

Wedding Customs.

The custom of brides dressing in
white is of ancient origin. and of Il
strange and unusual origin at that.
White is the symbol OF purity, and
is one of the reasons that il has been
used in all ages and in all countries
as the color of the bridal gown.
The custom originated in a far diff
ferent manner. however In the old
Saxon days, even up till the eigh-
teenth century. the poor bride came
to her wedding robed in plain white,
as a declaration to the public, that,
as she brought nothing to the mar
riage her husband was not to be
held responsible for her debts.
But many of the richer brides be-
gan adding color to their bridal
gowns, which necessitated large
amount of thought and care. In an
cient days, when families held feuds
against one another, certain colors
could not be worn by certain brides.
as they were used upon the liveries
of the enemies servants. In this
way blue. which stood for constancy.
and green, which meant youth, could
not be worn by brides in certain sec
tions of the country.
yellow could not be used, as II
stood for jealousy, or gold, as it
meant avaricC.
The Hebrew and Roman brides
always wore pale yellow wells. hut

OFFICIALS
ACCUSED Of
SHORTAGES
Sentinel Special Service.

t''liNlllil s1Ittldl sHfl ll't.
Denver, Sept. 27.-District Judge
Mccall win, within the next few
days, make public the report of
Harry MulniX, certified pubic ac-
countant, who was delegated to make
an inquiry into the official records
of Adams county officials, past and
present administrations. II is said
here authoriatively that the report
Will show that there has existed cor
ruptiOn in the management of the
county's affairs and that the short
age will reach at least SIS, 900 Fiji
teen officials of the present and past
administrations are said TO be i'm
plicated. and when the report is fl
nally made public their names will
be given by Judge Mccall in open
court. The alleged shortage was
found through an investigation COW
ering a period of six years.
A petition mas been in circulation
among taxpayers of Adams county
calling for a special grand jury to
make a thorough investigation Of
the affairs OF the county as adminis-
tered by the present and past admin
istrations, and it is believed that
enough citizens of that county will
sign the petition to warrant Judge
Mccall in calling the grand jury at
an early date.
Until Judge Mccall intimated a
few days ago that there actually eX-
listed big shortage very few be-
lieved that any of the officials had
been guilty of misdoings in the
conduct of their official acts. but now
this disbelief is disappearing and
there is a general sentiment among
taxpayers to know just how bad the
affairs of the county have been ad-
years.
1t is believed that the same fate
awaits some of the Adams county
officials as has already been meted
out TO several of the county COM
missioners and others of Weld
county. There now are two Of these
officials serving terms in the state
penitentiary at Canon City.

darned old standpatter and no
amount of persuasion heretofore has
been able to get him into the r. X.

the william role and all the actors be-
lieve he is the hisser in real life.
Supernumeraries include Bob
Cassells, who has been teased into
the belief that he will be given n
place on the ticket twenty years
from now; Brother Barnes, who is a
melancholy study in hope deferred,
and w. C. Knight, who feels that
nothing else can happen to him. now
that he is running for a state office.
These three gentlemen were origin
ally to have starred, but the question
was submitted to a referendum and
they were hopelessly showed under
on the face of the returns. They
were lucky to get in as delegates.
The most prominent figure on the
stage Will be, as usual, the stage di-
. rector. lie VIII De none Otler than
the imposing Nathan c. Miller. Miller
has been number of things, but now
he is Bull Mooser of the most en-
thusiastic type. He can stand in one
place. jump higher over a bandana
handkerchief and whoop "Yipee-ee-
e-e-eee'" than any man of his age
in the party.
The call boy will be little Karl
from across the street He will also
act as prompter and assistant make
up artist, spending an occasional
minute helping raise and lower the
curtain.
As stated in the beginning, the
only likelihood that there will be a
foozle will be n mistake in the lime
lighter. Unless the proper figures
show up AT the right time and are
followed maiestically about the stage
by the glamour of the are there is
n possibility that the carefully oiled
machine may buck and refuse to do
its bidding. Some fellow about the
size of Brother Barnes from down
Fruita way may decide 10 drop a
cord OF wood in the cogs OF the steam
roller and after that there will be
no prompting a full-siZed, un-to-
the-minute row will result and the
end no man can know.

pastime to see the actors 20 through
