mary surgeon who practced his profess

After leaving this city DR.. Mcclure
moved to Kit Carson county. where he
lived on a tract of land that he home
steaded. He proved up on the land last
June, at which time he came farther
west for the benefit OF his health. He
has been here about six weeks, and had
been feeling better up to this week when
he complained of not feeling so well, and
the day he passed awav had made par
tial arrangements to 60 to Pueblo for
special treatment. He retired about
$3.50 Wednesday, and in few minutes.
without warning he passed away. He
was man of very joyial disposition and
made friends with all whom he met.
Mrs. Mcclure, the aged wife, who was
with him to the last, was for the time

GETS IN BAD
Youth Tries to Sell Team Belonging
to Rocky Ford Livery

On Friday last c. H. Rich. the eighteen
year-old Rocky Ford youth arrested in
Las Animas the day before. was given a
preliminary hearing and pleaded guilty to
the charge of stealing a team belonging
to the Eoton livery. which brought his in
generation in the county jail to await the
action OF the district court.
According to the story told Young Rich
on Wednesday secured Ecton's fine team
OF blacks to make trip to Sugar City.
but instead of going there drove to Las
Aninas, where he tired to sell the entire
outfit for S ! S. telling the liveryman that
he wanted to go to Oklahoma in response
to telegram that his mother was dan
perously sick.
The man told Rich he'd make the deal
and asked him to put the horses up IN the
barn while he went to the bank for the
money. Instead of getting the cash the
liveryman got busy on the telephone.
with the result that he located the owner
of the team here and upon request of Mr..
Ecton he summoned the marshal and had
Rich taken in charge.
Marshal Tinsley went down to Las
Animas and brought the young fellow and
outfit he tried to oonfiscate to this city
and the rest of the story is told above.

SKIPPED THE COUNTRY
Week Dropped From Sight
Caught in Kansas

That lgnacio Leone. the Mexican beet
contractor who on Tuesday. Nov. l8. dis
appeared from his home near this city
and had not since been seen, had skipped
to his old haunts in Mexico, leaving his
creditors to "hold the sack" was the
theory Of Marshal Tinsley and the county
officials, after a thorough investigation of
wild and lurid tale of murder, as told
by his son Filippe and worked up with
scare headlines in the Sunday papers, and
this theory has partially been borne out
by the latest developments in the case:
Leone. it appears. had on the morning
of the day he disappeared cashed his beet
checks in this city. and had over $500
cash in his pockets when he visited his
sons home in Weitzer. and-as told by
the latter-had left there to collect bill
of $50 from a tenant who lived near.
As Flippe told it. his father said he
would walk to the home of bad hombre.
because his coming in vehicle would
give the renter chance to hide and he
wouldn't be able to get the $50 owing
him." But lgnaoio did not come back and
along about Friday last Filippe informed
the police of his fathers disappearance
and his belief that he had been murdered.
Investigation by the officers revealed
several suspicious circumstances and on
Saturday the son and his wife and a
daughter of the muoh-wanted man, Mrs.
Martinez Of La Junta, were placed under
arrest. as it was thought that they might
know more about the disappearance than
they had told.
On Monday Undersheriff Charles
Steward and Chief of Police Tinsley
made thorough investigation and found
that lgnacio was mourned by several
Rocky Ford business men who had given
him extensive credit, and the belief grew
so strong that he had skipped the country
without letting family or friends know.
that Filippe and party were released and
the hunt for Leone was taken up by Sam
Lopez and Ben Luoero. with such success
that they found their man in Garden City
Kan, and induced him to return with
them on Wednesday morning.
Leone did not have his roll when inter-
cepted. and tells a rambling tale of rob-
berry to account for its absence, but it is
believed that he'll be able to find it and
pay up his debts when he finds that the
only alternative to avoid arrest.

this line for some time. A suitable site
for a county building has long been ar
ranged for and funds are being raised by
popular subscription for the erection of
such a building.
Manzanola is centrally located in the
very heart OF the richest and most fertile
portion Of the valley. She has long taken
the lead in crop production and, with her
wonderful agricultural possibilities, bids
fair in becoming the metropolis of the
Valley. surely an ideal location for the
County Capital. Let the good work go

NEW AUTOMOBILE ROUTE
Arkansas Valley People Should Boost
Road from Oklahoma and Texas

In connection with the Santa Fe Trail
good roads movement another automo-
bile route is now the center Of interest in
the lower Arkansas Valley and it is re-
ported that campaign of publicity will
soon be inaugurated looking to the bet
ter publicity of the trail leading from
Texas and Oklahoma up through Baca
county to Lamar and on up the valley.
1t is said that 80 Fer cent of the tour
ist travel that came to Colorado last
season came from these states. and by
proper advertising and by a system OF
marking the trail as it should be marked,
it is believed that great share of the
travel will come this way.
The trail by this route is much better
as it avoids all the grades that are en-
countered by way of Ration and Trini-
