MAN
HAS DROPPED
FROM SIGHT
]. Howard Smith, Welded But Two
Months, Mysteriously Disappears
After Leaving San Bernardo
no, CAL, With Large Sum
of Money.-Foul Play?

j. Howard Smith, a barber en-
ployed by J. F. Slinkard. and who
was married in this city in Febru-
ary to Miss Clara Schuschardt, left
Grand Junction on March "a for
San Bernardino, Cal. He left San
Bernardino on March 8 for Seattle,
with S4700 on his person and since
that time not one word has been
heard from and no trace can be
learned of his whereabouts He
wrote or wired daily while on his
journey and the last message from
him was while on the train shortly
after leaving San Bernardino. where
he secured the money for some
property he sold. After that letter
news from him suddenly stopped and
so far as can be learned he never
reached Seattle.
Smith was a man of very method
ical habits and moreover was devot-
edly attached to his bride of two
months. He owned a considerable
amount of property on the coast and
went west for the purpose of turning
it into money and returning to this
city to make his home. He wrote his
young wife of the success of his
deal. He left San Bernardino on
Sunday and said in his letter that as
soon as he reached Seattle he in
tended to mail her a large check.
The fact that it was Sunday pre-
vented him from using either bank
or postoffice to send the money.
1t is the belief of friends who
are making a steady search for him
that he has met foul play of the most
serious nature. Il know that moth

eating with his wife" said Mr.. Sink
ard, with whose family Mrs. Smith
is staying during her husbands alb
sence. He was thoroughly devoted
to her and had habitually written and
telegraphed to her while away from
the city" Mr. Slinkard feels that
on account of the large sum he
carried on his person that the trou-
BILE into which he has fallen is of the
most serious character. He does not
even scout the idea of murder al
though there is no more reason to
suspect that then a sudden Illness or
an accident of less awful Importance.
Mr. Smith was a man of absteni-
Gus habits and to those that know
him best, it is unthinkable that ne
allowed himself to be led astray by
the usual weaknesses that are play
ed upon Dy the croohs VI IA Sc
city. This fact makes the mystery
of his disappearance more baffling
]. f. Slinkard has been tireless in
his efforts to locate the missing man
wiring the authorities at every point
on the road and urging thorough
investigation of the mystery. He
hopes every day to get some clew
that will lead to an unraveling OF
the affair.

Louis Williams and James \. Long
inetti Arrive To-day and Plan
Establishment of Big Book
Bindery in Grand junction
in Near Future.
MAYOR TODD INTRODUCES THEM

Grand Junction is to have one ot
the largest and best equipped book
binderies in the state outside of Den
yer, If the plans of two gentlemen
of responsibility and long experience
work out.
This announcement was made in
the city this afternoon, following the
arrival in this city of Louis Williams
Of Denver and James A. Longinotti
of Trinidad.
The gentlemen had been in cores
pondence with Mayor Todd and other
local gentlemen for some time con-
cerning the establishment of a big
bindery plant in this city. Today
the two gentlemen are making per-
sonal investigation of the field. and
are being introduced to the business
men by Mayor Thomas NJ Todd The
latter and Mr.. Longinetti find that
they knew each other in Denver many
years ago.
For some twenty years Mr.. Will
Jams was one of the owners of the
big Publishers Press Room Company
of Denver, and only recently sold out
his interests there. Mr.. Longinetti
has been in the business in Trinidad
for long period. Both gentlemen
have been very successful in the bust
ness. They have long had their eyes
on Grand Junction as a splendid To-
cation for a big book and magazine
bindery that would have for its ter
ritory all of western Colorado.
If they decide to establish the plant
here, they will install the most i'm
proved machines and be up to date
in every particular.
Such a plant should do well in this
city. and The sentinel hopes that the
gentlemen will decide to locate here

Washington, Apr 10.-Colonel
Roosevelt was portrayed in the SEN
ate today as the counterpart of Pom
titus PLATE.
The picture was drawn by Senator
Wesley Jones of Washington, who
sketched as the groundwork the re-
cent Detroit speech of the former
president condemning the vote of the
majority of the members of the Lor-
linen committee favorable to the IL
linois senator as not being responsive
to the sentiment of their constitu-
encies.
This is the latest rule for judicial
action suggested by this self-pro-
claimed leader of the progressives, "
said Senator Jones. Because we
have not followed 1t, We are not pro-
gressive, but reactionary. This was
the rule of action followed by PLATE
nearly 1900 years ago.
''If Former President Roosevelt
had been standing on one side when
PLATE delivered Jesus to the Jews,
after having examined into the
charges and found no fault in him.

democrat with an abiding faith in
the principles of fundamental democ-
racy handed down by Jefferson and
Jackson and the other heroes OF the
historic party which is nearest to the
people.
"He is incorruptible and fearless
and his rugged honesty would be
proof against the sinister influences
of the big interests and their lobby
lists.
above all else, Speaker Clark is a
constructive Statesman, as has been
demonstrated by his great record as

salt fish and potatoes, and I'm afraid
they may not know that they ought to

Cousin Sarah listened with interest
to the boys story about Jimmy Jaw

Then she rose and said: You shall

Makinq French Knots.

The simplest way Of making French
knots is to knot the end Of the thread
and insert the needle from the wrong
side of the goods. With the left
thumb and finger hold the thread firm
ly about two and q half inches from
where it came out. With the needle
pointed upward twist the silk two or
three times around it. Point the nee
die down and insert it as near the
original spot where it came through as
possible. The size of the knots may
be regulated by the number of times
the thread is wound around the needle.
