DENVER HAS TERRIFIC
RECORD OF VIOLENT DEATHS
sentinel special service.

Sentinel Special Service.
Denver, May f6=The record of
violent deaths as a result OF pistol
toting in Denver since the beginning
OF the present year is evidence suf-
fioient to demand strict prohibitive
state laws to prevent these crimes.
No other evidence is necessary, said
a member of the house today in in
cidentally referring to the measure
being considered by the special ses-
sion.
Seven homicides already have oc-
CURED in this city since January l.
The total for 1918 was twelve. Most
of the crimes of last yeare were COM
mitted during the warm weather.
after July.
Discussing the situation, Chief OF
Police O'Neill said that he believed
the murders would more than double
the list of last year. He is opposed
to the promiscuous selling of fire
arms and feels that strict laws touch
1 ing the practice should be enacted by
the legislature, but he thinks, how
ever, that any such a law would not
prevent the usual number of mt1r-
4 ders in Denver or in any other sec
| tion of the state. He believes that
crime waves follow business 1depres-
sions everywhere and that these con-
ditions are mainly responsible for the
many homicides and suicides.
! Denvers suicide record -for ithe
| first four months of the present year
is lower than many other cities of
like population. says the chief of po-
liece. During 1913 up to May 4 3
there We're 25 suicides in Denver.
During the same period this year
there have been only 16.
Chief O'Neill believes the total
suicides for the present year will cas-
lily reach an even hundred; while in
1913 there were "A. The possible in
crease of deaths from this cause this
year will be 33 1-3 per cent over last
year. There were 10 unsuccessful
suicidal attempts made last year.
Those who killed themselves were AS
women and 26 men, thirty-two by the
pistol route and 26 by poison
To date this year there have been
only 20 attempts at suicide.
According to Coroner George Bost-
wick there are in Denver 500 per-
sons contemplating death by suicide.
He gives as reason for this belief lack
OF money, dismal prospects and
drink.

dent near the city this morning about

street picked up Mr.. Pike, who was
going to the Atlantic Coast Line depot
to board train. Mr.. Pike learned
that his train was q little late and he
rode on with the others.
Mr.. Bull was driving, and it was
the intention Of the driver to go to
the fish cultural station. He was
running the car at good speed.
When he reached that part of south
Broughton street, extended, where
the street crosses the Southern rail-
way, he saw that some children were
in the road leading to the fishery. He
endeavored to turn the car to cross
the railway.
AS he did so the car skidded, miss
ing the, railroad crossing and going
acros theecrossties and rails.
The car, a seven-passenger, six
cylinder car, as it jumped across the

his friends by scores. His popular
ity has been attested by the visits
and inquiries of his many friends.
This is the only automobile acci-
dent of consequence ever occurring in

red up over the affair, owing to the
prominence of the parties injured and
the seriousness of Mr.. Rich's injuries.

SPARROWS AS RAT KILLERS.
Busy Little Birds Declare War on
Intruding Rodents.

Many stories have been told of the
prowess of rats in combat with other
animals, and the fact that one can
kill dog is well known, but the fact
that they themselves are warred upon
and exterminated by the lowly Eng
lish sparrow has just been brought to
light.
At North Fort Worth the erection
of three brick buildings in peculiar
manner left small court in the rear
of one building with no outlet ex-
cept the blue sky above. ~
This court has for some time been
used as playground by unusually
big rats that are almost driving the
grocers and butchers in that vicinity
to distraction.
English sparrows have of late be-
come attracted to this court and wish
to use it as nesting place. That rats
and sparrows cannot live together is
a settled thing; therefore, the SPAR
rows have decided that the rats must
leave, and daily they are killing them
off in large numbers.
The sparrows roost on the tops of
the buildings overlooking the court
and whenever rat ventures forth
to sclrry across from one hole to an
other a flock of sparrows descend
upon him and in a short.while peck
him to death.-Fort Worth (TeX.)
