Montrose, Colo. - Suit for $50 900
damages in which defamation of char
acter is charged, has been filed in
the Montrose District Court by the
Rev. Father c. F. OFarrell, pastor of
st. Mary's Catholic church against
Prof. d. E. Weidman, superintendent
of the Montrose city schools.
The suit is the outcome of a con.
versation said to have taken place be-
tween Harry Netherton, seventeen, a
student, and Prof. Weidman, in which
1t is alleged the name of Father O'Far-
rell was linked with that of Emma
Hill, seventeen, also a student to
whom Netherton had been paving at
tention.
Prof. Weidman, according to the
priests complaint, advised Netherton
to inform his parents of certain visits
between the girl and the priest to
save himself from disgrace. This is
said to have occurred about Nov. !.
Father OFarrell, upon learning this,
it is declared, went to Prof. Weidman
and demanded retraction of re-
marks passed in the conversation.
Prof. Weidman is said to have apollo
gized and declared that the priest was
mistaken as to certain illusions made
to him in the conversation.
When rumors concerning the priest
became widely circulated, Weidman
sent written apology to Father
OFarrell in which he declared the
numerous statements he had made
were mere hearsay, that he did not
wish to injure Father O'Farrell's repu-
tation. The apology was printed in a
local paper and the suit followed.

Founder Of Craig Colony Dead.

Denver.-When Frank Craig, the
heroic founder of Craig colony, died
OF tuberculosis in the little tent house
he called home, his spirit did not de-
part alone. Two ether members Of
the little colony, brothers in suffering
to Frank Craig, died at almost the
same hour. Sometime between mid
night and the miracle of dawn, three
of the brave souls at Craig colony
gave up their fight against their grim
enemy and departed together from
this life. Edward McConaty, who had
been one of "Craig's boys" for more
than a year, and James Barrett, who
had joined the colony last September,
passed over the great divide with
their hero leader. All three were
found dead in their beds at the
colony when the shivering attendants
made their rounds in the morning to
see how the night had gone with the
members of the far-famed COLONY of
Brotherly Relief during the still
hours.
