BOY DROWNED

On last Saturday morning, be-
tween 9 and 10 o'clock, a sad acci-
dent occurred on Clear creek, about
one half mile from where it emp
ties into the Rio Grande river.
Emmett Workman, the five year
old son of Mr.. and Mrs. James
Workman, fell from log into the
creek and was drowned.
A short time before the child
disappeared he had visited the
creek in company with his older
brother, and his brother had crossed
to small island in the creek on a
log which had lodged between the
bank and the island to get some
pussy willows, which he gave to
little Emmet, who took them to
his mother. In short time his
mother missed the child, and it is
supposed that the little fellow re-
turned to the creek and attempted
to Cross over to the island in search
of more pussy willows, as he had
seen his older brother do.
AS soon as he was missed search
ing parties were organized and the
entire surrounding country was
thoroughly gone over, all the neigh
bors and quite a number from
Creede taking part in the search
Mr.. @. j. E. Roy, Creede's popu-
lar jeweler, took his trained dog to
the scene of the accident and put
in considerable time going over
the adjacent territory, but could
find no trace of the missing child.
Clear creek was damned at the
little island where the child fell in,
throwing part of the water into the
bed of Middle creek, thus lowering
Clear creek quite bit. The creek
was running almost bank full
when the accident occurred.
The parents of the child are
heart-broken over the sad fate Of
their little one, and the suspense
and uncertainty which will be
theirs until the body is found will
be very trying upon them.
The sympathy of the entire
county is extended to them in their
hour of great grief.-Creede Can
die.

The suicide theory in the death
of Fred Warshauer seems lately to
be disregarded on account of the
fact that he had been for years un-
able to raise his right arm as high
as his head. The bullet entered
the right temple and took down
ward course and the revolver must
have been held two feet away, as
there were no powder marks and
the hair was not singed.

MYST|F|ES POLICE
BY CLEVER RUSE
Miss Pankhurst Enabled to Make
Address at Bow Baths
in London.

| London, November Spy n clever
strategem, which completely hood
winked the large force OF police sent
TO prevent her from speaking. Miss
Sylvia Pankhurst was enabled to an
nounce at the Bow Baths. In the East
| End of London tonight, the formation
OF volunteer corps organized under
command OF Captain Sir Francis Vane,
| n Boer War veteran. for the protection
unionists.
Miss Zelie Emerson, OF Jackson,
Mich. presided over the gathering. Just
as the meeting was called to order
the statement was made that the resi-
denco OF George Lansbury. former
Socialist member Of Parliament and a
warm suppo rter OF tho militant suffra-
gettes. was surrounded by police. The
crowd rushed from the baths and
found n large number of foot and
mounted police around Lansburys
house.
Tho lights in the house were ex-
tinguished and suddenly woman
rushed from the doorway and sprang
into a waiting taxicab which. sur
q.
TO Bcthnal Green. Then Miss Daisy
Lansbury. daughter OF the cx-Social-
list member. stepped out much to the
discontinue Of the police.
Meanwhile. Miss panthurst entered
the bath practically unobserved The
only disorder was caused by an attack
by the women on few reporters. whom
they suspected of being detectives. Mr..
Lansbury and Sir Francis Vane fol-
lowed Miss Panlthurst to the platform
The Boer veteran announced that he
proposed to establish n labor training
corps. Waving aloft huge knotted
club, Sir Francis said he was prepar-
ing to use that weapon wherever he
| saw women injured and in labor dis
putes.
The general staff of the organization
will be drawn from officers who have
seen war Both men and women are
eligible for the ranks.
Miss Pankhurst said the plan was
based on the Ulster model. and she
expected the same immunity from gov
ernment interference as Sir Edward
Carson. the Ulster leader. enjoyed.
When Miss PanRhurst left the meet
ing she was surrounded by body
guard OF East Icnders and made her
escape after a lively battle with tho
police, who drew their clubs. Tho
crowd retaliated with sticks, and the
result was that several OF the bcllig-
ercnts were injured. among them Miss
Emerson, who was knocked down and
bruised about the head. She. too. es-
capped arrest being carried away by
sympathizers.

Washington, November 5.-Now that

cleared away. and the Tammany fight
has ended. the members of Congress
from the different States are beginning
10 return TO Washington preparatory
TO the long session, which viii begin

One OF the most Interesting OF all the
developments looked for early In the
new session Will be the reply OF Con-
gresham William A. Jones, Of Vir-
GINA to the attack Of former Governor
Cameron Forbes, OF the Philippine Is
lands. IT VIII be remembered that
about six weeks ago. just before Mr..
Jones became i'll. and had TO 20 home.
Mr.. Forbes landed a vicious attack
upon him because Of n speech. which
the Virginia Congressman made on the
floor OF the House last winter on tho
subject OF Philippine Independence. II
was the purpose of Mr.. Jones TO reply
10 the attack Immediately. hut because
OF illness he was forced TO delay &C
ton. II is now almost certain that as
room ms tho new session begins Mr.
Jones will rise to n question of per-
tack in a thorough and convincing
manner.
Surprised mt Attack.
Mr.. Jones's friends In Congress wcrc
very much surprised when this state
nent OF Mr. Forbes was made. Many
Of them heard Mr. Joncs's speech. and
they say they find little In the attack
which was made upon II to Justify IT.
Therefore his friends arc awaiting with
interest tho time when he shall ask
permission or the Speaker to reply

tcrcsting things which will claim tho
attention OF the Virginia members

indications more than usual activity

Suggests "Modernizing"
Census Methods

The Director of the Cen
sus recommends slmplit1ed
methods for taking the next
census. He would use the
mail carriers i'll the larger
places. Sure enough, and
why not, since the mail man
knows every mothers SON.
OF Us? Mr.. Durand would
also have it less foolishly an.
swered, SO that the reports
could be simplifled. Many
vital statistics gathered by
the last census are not out
yet nor never will be. The
census cost $4,000, 900, and
the most of it is stored in
junk piles in Washington.
The statistics regarding
newspapers for 1910 have
never appeared, and if they
ever do they will be about
the same thing as is to be
found in an out-of-date news
paper directory. Other in
stances without number
could be cited to prove the
popular belief of Washington
that most Of the statistical
work of the Census is a huge
joke.
