Denver woman who killed her hus.
band, William NJ. Schmidlap, in 1905,
and whose act indirectly, at least, re-
suited in the death of two or more
members of the Schmidlap family. is
believed to be one of the heirs to a
fortune of $500 900 lett by an uncle of
the man she shot to death. This
uncle was Durand II. McClelland. who
died recently at Long Beach. Cal. He
left Denver, II was said. because OF
the strain and disgrace attendent up
on the trial of Helen Schmidlap. He
amassed a fortune in the California
oil fields 1t is now probable that the
woman whose tragic act virtually ex-
He'd him will share in the results OF
his labor in his adopted state. AS far
as has been ascertained, the-wealthy
Californian is survived by only two
living blood relatives. One of these
is brother, Charles McClelland, post

is a sister. whose present address is
