Mrs. Mordecai Hammerfest turned
pale as her husband entered the din

don't you feel well?"
Perfectly" he replied in seeming
surprise.
"But-but, are you in your-your

Tell me something l don't know.

Hammerfest.
She passed the butter. remarking
nervously: But, Mordy, dear, as you

curl papers. isn't it?"
"Why-y-yes."
"And you have on a wrapper,

"Yes."

And he went on eating his break
fast in silence except when he asked
her to pass the butter. Then he went
upstairs and finished dressing, and the
next morning and on succeeding morn
ings she reported for breakfast in reg

Denver.-Harold F. Henwood, who
shot and killed Sylvester l.. Won Phul
and George Z. Copeland May "a, 1911,
in the barroom of the Brown hotel,
must be hanged in the week beginning
Oct. 25 next. according to a decision
Of the Supreme Court.
The decision affirmed the judgment
of death entered against Henwood at
his second trial, a year ago, and fixed
a new date for execution of the judg-
ment, which had been stayed by the
appeal.
The decision wa. written by Justice
Gabbert. and the other justices con.
Cured. except Justice White, who dis
sented. and Justice Hill, who did not
participate.
The appeal was the second taken
by Henwood to the Supreme Court.
He won on his first appeal after he
had been convicted of murder In the
second degree and sentenced to i'm
prisonment for life. That judgment
was reversed, and on his second trial
he was convicted Of murder in the
first degree, the Jury fixing the PEN
atty at death.
Permanent Injunction Against Bonds.
Characterizing the Moffat tunnel
contract as deliberate effort to
evade the constitution, and denying
the right OF municipalities to enact
legislation which is contrary to organ
ic law, the State Supreme Court de-
clared the S3,O00,000 bonds voted by
the taxpaying electors Of the City OF
Denver on Feb. II last to be invalid
and void.
Justice Scott wrote the opinion
which was concurred in by all the
other Justices except Justice Gabbert,
who wrote a dissenting opinion in
which he took the stand that the peo-
pie of Denver had as much right to
enter into an agreement for the con.
struction of a railroad tunnel as they
had to build an auditorium.
Isaac N. Stevens, city attorney, an
nounced, after conference with the
Moffat Tunnel Commission, that the
decision would be referred to the peo-
pie of the City of Denver under the
provisions of the recall of judicial de-
cisions amendment to the state con-
stitution.
If this plan is carried out it Will be
the first time that the recall OF decis-
ions has ever been invoked in Colo
