A hRS. GRACE STEELE is married
W Tor the sixth time. Her lates,
Il piunse-int -tfls--troubious pee
OF matrimony occurred yesterday at
Montrose when County Judge Hora-
| ito w. Hanes performed the cere-
mony hich united her to Carries Leu,
miner from Ouray. They will re-
side in the mountain town, it is said.
Mrs Steele has spent all the week
in Montrose waiting for her intended
husband who arrived yesterday at
noon. Mrs. Steele had the certifi-
cate waiting, having procured it
from County Clerk Mcneil that morn
ing. In her application for the IL
cense she said that she was a widow
and that her husband was dead.
Mrs. Steele has been better known
in this city as Mrs Chester Mar
guam for some time, but every effort
tc locate record of either her mar
riage to Marquam or her divorce from
him has failed. 1t was stated today,
on excellent authority that the mar
riage rite which united she and the
well known poet" was according to
her peculiar religion rather than un-
der the ordinary civil rules. Her
latest divorce was from Loren A
Staley, local attorney and that de-
cree restored her maiden name of
Steele.
Mrs. Steele's marriage record is
quite romantic When quite young
she was married to Duff Cameron
rom whom she later received a di-
torce. A railroad man named Prev
lit residing in Colorado City was her
second husband and he was killed in
an accident three days after their
nuptial ceremony had been perform
ed. A man named Howard, consid-
erably younger than the bride, was
third in the list, but their married
ife was brief and unsatisfactory.
.oren A. Staley is number four and
lis divorce restored the lady to the
lame of Grace Steele.
The Marquam union was less than
four years ago and most of their mar
ried life was spent on the coast.
This summer both returned and for a
time a reconciliation was rumored
following brief separation. A week
ago Mrs. Steele complained of his
actions and declared that she wanted
to file charges of either assault and
battery or lunacy against MarQuam.
The case dropped, however.
The marriage to Mr.. Leu is quite
unexpected by the lady's friends and
the story of the romance is not
known here.
Mrs. Steele has declared many
times that she has been divinely
chosen to bring a religious message
to the world and she made several
attempts to establish new religious
sect, These efforts have not been
successful, however.

May APPOINT COMMITTEE TO PASS
ON ISSUES IN WATER DIVERSION

n ENvER, Oct. -(Sentinel
Special Service. THE irriga-
ton committee of the Denver
Chamber of Commerce will write a
letter to Secretary of the Interior
Lane asking him to define more
clearly his attitude toward the ap-
pointment of commission to settle
contentious as to water supply and
rights of way in this state between
the federal government and the
state and private irrigation projects.
Secretary Lane told State Engineer
Field in Denver last week that he
was willing to leaves the facts in the
cases in dispute to the decision of a
commission constituted of experts.
Thousands of acres of land in the
state remain undeveloped and unpro-
ductive on account of existing diff
ferences.
Lanes plan is for one commission
er to be appointed by himself, one
by Governor Ammons and q third
to be selected by the first two. 1t is
proposed to have this commission
measure the water flow on the west
ern slope of the Rockies and deter
mine whether or not 1t would work
a hardship on the farmers of that
part of the state to divert portion
of it's waters to the lands oni this
side.

aroused Mr.. Blay at about 1;10
O'Clock and he ran to the burning
house as quickly as possible. Before
he reached there, however, the roof
collapsed and a few moments later
the charred bodies OF the aged couple
were seen in the ruins. They were
together near their bedroom window
and were evidently attempting to es-
cape when the roof fell in upon
them.
The. house was a two-story frame
affair and was one of the most pre-
tentious in that section. 1t was said
to be worth about $4,000 and with
the furniture, etc, was valued at
$4,000.

his wife was but two years MS Jun

by the explosion of the heating stove.
Mr.. Ross. with his sons, has opera
ted freighting business in Redvale

proprietors of large farm. They
have been considered among the we'll
to-do people of the Paradox valley.
