PATHETIC TRAGEDY
son OF "TONY" KNILL SHOOTS
BROTHER AT PLAY.
Fred Knill, Aged IL, Finds Revolver
in Bureau Drawer, Orders Brother
to Halt and Pulls the Trigger.

While enjoying vacation visit with
2755 Josephine street, where they had
gone on the Fourth of July, Frederick
Knill, aged ~, shot and killed his
brother, Lionel Knill, aged 10, Thurs
day morning while playing with a re-
volver found in bureau drawer. The
boys are sons of A. P. Knill, printer
employed on the Rocky Mountain
News and prominent member of Den
yer Typographical Union. Father and
mother of the boys are grief stricken
over the tragedy and have the sincere
sympathy of a host of friends in the
labor movement.
Freddie is grief stricken and can
give little or no facts concerning the
shooting. He said he did not know he
had shot his brother until he went
downstairs and found Lionel leaning
against the wall clutching at his
breast. The bullet pierced the younger
lads heart and came out just above
the kidney, on the right side.
The two boys left their home early
Wednesday morning to spend the
Fourth of July with Grandma Book.
Thruout the day they celebrated in real
skid" fashion and retired last night
worn out from play.
Bright and early this morning they
arose to continue the play of yester-
day. Grandma Book wanted the boys
to go with her to the store to get food
for the days meals. She told the
boys to go to the bathroom on the
second floor and wash themselves.
Lightheartedly both lads ascended the
stairs, arm in arm, together.
Fred had finished washing and
Fred went into the front room to get
towel and in searching thru the
dresser drawers he came across a 49,
calibre revolver. He took it from the
holster and tiptoed to the bathroom.
Just then Lionel came out, cropping,
with soap in his eyes.
"Where's the towel, Freddie? ?" he
asked.
"Stop! Who goes there ?" playfully
challenged Fred, and pulled the trig-
ger.
A shot rang out. Freddie was fright
ened and surprised. Lionel whirled
and ran down back stairway.
Fearing he would be reprimanded
for shooting the revolver in the house,
Fred ran back to the front room and
put the gun in the drawer where he
had found it.
He then followed down the back
stairs.
"Why, what's the matter, Lionel ?"
cried the frightened Freddie.
Fred tore open his brothers coat and
was confronted with a blood stain.
Then Lionel collapsed and died in his
brothers arms.

Organized labor of the state was
given quite shock Tuesday when the
Colorado industrial commission an
nounced that alien families, affected
by the Hastings disaster would receive
no compensation, at least not until the
war is over.
Thursday morning the labor advis-
ory committee took this matter up
with Governor Gunter, impressing
upon the state executive that this rul-
ing would create great dissatisfaction
among all the miners, particularly
those of foreign nativity. The gov
ernor told the committee he would
interest himself in the matter at once
and the probabilities are that the wild
ows and orphans whose husbands and
fathers lost their lives in the Hastings
mine disaster April 27, will be paid
compensation.
Members of the labor advisory COM
mittee present at the conference in
the governors Office were Clint C..
Houston, vice chairman; Roady Kene-
han, secretary; John r. Lawson, w. F.
Hynes and T. X. Henahen. Chairman

PIPPIN FAILS IN ATTEMPT TO HAVE

lied, yet he charged it with working
in the interests of the coal operators"
While Pippin was speaking the local
president was frequently forced to call
him to order and ask him to be more
respectful in the language used while
addressing members of the union. The
two propositions which Pippin de-
manded be passed, revoking previous
action of the union, were divided and
separate votes taken thereon. Both
were rejected by an overwhelming ma
jority and it is not likely that Pippin
of Kansas will again visit this local in
support of his fight against John r.

tin.
Moran and Pippin have refused to
issue charters to locals recently organ
lied at Cedar Hill, near Ludlow, with
forty members, and one in Trinidad

his reason that no organizer designat-

The industrial commission held
hearings in Trinidad two weeks ago
upon the matter of paying compensa-

in the daily press, follows:
"As to the claims which have arisen
subsequent to the declaration of war,
the industrial commission will accent

liens of the countries named) resi-
dent within the borders of the United
States or friendly countries, and wher-

of the war.
while there is no technical declara-
ton of war between the United States

these countries are admittedly friendly
nations, yet the alliance between those
powers and the German empire is so
close and of such a nature as to re-
quire that the industrial commission
shall treat their subjects in exactly
