Henry kfumpanilzky
Dies at ManCos

Henry Krumpanitzky, pioneer
resident of the southwest, passed
away at his home in Mancos this
morning at $3.50 after an illness of
about seven months duration. Dur
ing the long siege on several occa-
slons his condition was considered
critical. Then he would rally and ap-
parently have good prospects for re-
covery. Last week he was taken sud-
denly very much worse, and since
Friday all hope for his recovery has
been abandoned Mr.. Krumpanitzky
had been numbered among the SUBJ
stantial residents of the section for
nearly 80 years. He first located in
Rico, later moving to Durango and
for many years past had resided in
Mancos. In addition to his wife, she
who was Miss Grace Cobb, the de-
ceased. is survived by one sister, Mrs.
S. w. Raymond, of this city, and two
brothers, Matt and Adolph Krumpan-
itzky. The latter, too, has been very
i'll for many months. Thursday it
was feared he would not survive the
day. Today his condition shows
slight improvement, but it is still con-
sidered very critical, and no hope is
held out for his recovery.
AS yet funeral arrangements have
not been perfected, but according to
present plans the remains will be
brought to Durango for interment.

GERMANS REPULSED
WITH HEAVY LOSSES

PARIS, Nov. 9.-The Germans re-
sumed the offensive at Dixmude and
Ypres, after slackening fire, follow
ing a week of constant artillery and
infantry assaults.
The official statement this after

own everywhere and renewed assaults
have failed, the enemy having been
checked with heavy losses. At Ypres
the British repulsed the enemy with
bayonets. Three violent German as
saults were repulsed.
1t is believed the kaiser regards
the situation serious because of the
Russian advance in the east. 1t is
reported the first line of troops have
been withdrawn from the west and
sent east.

Austria.

George Jones Meets Death in An
Accident.

Accident.
George Jones, pioneer resident of
the San Juan basin, WAS killed in a
runaway accident in the Laplata, N.
NJ, section Friday. He was seated
on a load of lumber when the team
suddenly became frightened and ran
away, throwing him under the load
in such way that it cost him his
life. Mr.. Jones was one of the old
est freighters in these parts. For
years before the railroad was built
he operated between Durango and
Rico and this city and Chama, in the
days the so-called highways were not
much better than trails. 1t seems a
trick of fate that he escaped serious
accident under those conditions, only
to meet death in these times when
we feature good roads. Mr.. Jones
will be remembered by all the older
residents who will learn of his pass
ing with deep regret.
