COL. LEE RESIGNS;
WELL KNOWN HERE

The resignation OF Colonel George
Nj. Lee IN Denver yesterday from his
position as assistant adjutant gem
eral was learned in this city today
Col. Lee has been a frequent visitor
in this city during the past three
years. having officially visited the
local military company during its ex-
istance and has also conferred with
city and county officials on the site
for the armory in this city.
Col. Lees resignation was caused
by the continual strong distractions
which Auditor Roady Kenehan placed
In his path. The frequent charges
of extravaganza and graft made by
the auditor were insupportable de-
clared Lee and he flung his keys on
Governor Ammons' desk and an
nounced that he had definitely quit.
Col. Lee was custodian Of the mil
itary expenses during the strike and
the charges were aimed primarily
at no and General Chase.
No successor has as yet been nam
ed.

THE CRYSTAL THEATER
ALSO A TWO-REEL
COMEDY FEATURE.

There was no doubt about ii that
Deacon Ellington was an old pinch
penny lie had the reputation of
being the meanest man in the county
and the county was not particularly
famous for its generosity. On ac-
count of his meanness, everybody
was glad when George Splain's mare
beat the deacon's in a trotting race.
George and the deacon were not
very good friends anyway, because
George happened to be in love with
the deacons daughter. His defeat
aroused the deacon to such a rage
that he positively refused to allow
his daughter TO have anything more
TO do with George. The deacon 8
prohibition did not bother his daugh-
ter and George to any alarming
extent. They saw about as much of
each other as they ever had. The
deacon did not notice their disobedi-
ence because he himself was in the
midst of an exciting romance En-
gagged one day in the pursuit of an
office boy and black cat who be-
tween them had scattered inky ca
tracks over some OF his important
papers, the deacon had entered the
yard of the Widow Divine. His heart
was taken captice. and he who came
to storm remained TO WOO In this
tender pastime he found dangerous
rival in a certain ST Higgins.
The widow listening, as was her
custom, to conversation on the tele-
phone one day, heard George and the
deacon's daughter planning an elope-
ment. Naturally enough, she told
the deacon. The deacon at that time
was under a slight cloud. He had
been engaged TO deliver temperance
lecture, but. on account of the un-
fortunate discovery of a secret bot
which served to apprise the shocked
village that it had been sheltering a
wolf in sleeps clothing. his moral
authority suffered severely. The
deacon returned home and threw
Splan out. His utter rage may be
imagined when, few days later,
Splain eloped with the girl. The
deacon chased them TO the parsonage
and arrived only to find them mar
ried. But what hurt even more
than that was the fact he also ar
rived Just in time to greet the new
Mrs. Higgins. formerly the Widow
lDivine. THE deacon stormed and
ragged until Splan showed him GER
tain paper the deacons former office
boy had brought him. 1t dealt with
rather shady mortgage transaction
and on sight Of it the deacon sub
sided Immediately. His reputation
has suffered too much of late to risk
any further blows.
