Buffalo Bill" Dead

Denver, Jan. l0-Col. William
F. Cody Buffalo Bill'') is dead.
The noted plainsman and scout
breathed his last at 1905 p. m.
today, and when his passing it
seemed to the thousands of
friends who had closely followed
his fight for life as the last vest
ige of the old West, ''the wild
and woody" West had passed
with him.
He died at the home of his sis
ter, Mrs. May Cody Decker of
this city, where for weeks he lay
critically i'll, fighting the hard
est battle of his life. Weeks
ago friends despaired of his re-
covery from complication of
diseases but Buffalo Bill refused
to give up.
He rallied to the extent that
he could be moved to Glenwood
Springs for his health, but a re-
lapse occurred and he was brot
back to Denver.
William Frederick Cody, ia
nous scout and Snowman, better
know throughout the world AS
Buffalo Bill" was born in Scott
County Ia, Feb. 26, 1845. His
father Iaac Cody, was one of the
early pioneers of Kansas, having
emigrated West and settled in
Salt Creek Valley, five miles
west of where Lavenworth now
stands, in 1858.
He was one of the members of
the company which laid out the
city of Leavenworth and was
then chosen as representative in
in Lecompton Legislature. He
took an active part in making
Kansas a free state at the time
when the political situation was
heated and bitter, and firearms
were freely used at political
meetings.

Col. Fredrick d. Gardner, one
of the very successful business
men of st. Louis experienced the
remaining fond hope of his life
Monday, when he was placed in
a position to leave for himself
and his posterity record of
good deeds in the interest of his
State.
| Col. and Mrs. Gardner eluded
a number Of their admiring
friends in the City who had en-
gagged a special train for the
Capitol Monday morning by
quietly slipping out of the City
Sunday evening. 1t was soon
apparent to, Col. Gardner that
the space in the Capitol build
ing prepared for the inaugura-
ton ceremonies would be entire
ly too small to accommodate the
crowd which would be on hand
for the occasion and that 1000
tickets had already been given
out, the number the hall would
seat. Promptly Col. Gardner
gave orders for the construction
of a speakers stand and seats
for the Supreme Court and legis-
lature on the capitol ground and
directed that the ceremonies be
held where all could see. This
first act of consideration for the
care of the multitude marked
the Democratic simplicity which
may be expected throughout
Gov. Gardners tenure of office
and pleased everybody, and was
the first open air inauguration
ever held in the State.
1t was a May day, wraps were
burdensome. Ten Thousand wit
messed Chief Justice Waller. W.
Graves administer an oath of
office and ten thousand cheered
the incisive words of the first
message to the legislature.

Washington Half Dry

The United States Senate by
vote of nearly two to one passed
a bill which, if passed by the
House, will make the National
Capitol dry in one sense of the
word, and it is safe to predict
that the House of Representa-.
tives will take the new political
trial.
The locker system is also for
hidden, but individuals can pro-
cure whatever and how much
they desire for their personal
or family use. The measure ex-
tends only to the use of alcoholics
for beverage purpose, and we
take it that mince pies will not
have to be ruined with grape
juice.

Jim Garrett Arrested

Jim Garrett, of Salisbury who
conducted some sort of hotel and
rooming house for several years,
was arrested the first of the
week charged with the murder
and lobery of his aunt at New
Franklin. Rumor says that he
went to her for money and be-
ing refused he left but returned
and murdered her and then rob-
bed her and fired the building.
He went to the funeral Tues
day and was arrested and money
known to belong to the woman
mas found on him. it issaid.

casion.
Mrs. Garoner prefers that no

sion during her incumbency and
the Gov. has issued the edict,
but at the reception following
the inauguration and at the ball
there vas punch which defied
imitation and induced repetition
and every sampler semilated
Pickwicks until it was too late to
linger longer. One item not on
, the program. Mrs. Gardner may
regulate to obliate too many call
ers on the governor at the con-
clusion of his address and as he
was receiving congratulations
and shaking hands, he drew a
pretty st. Louis lady friend close
enough to kiss her. The atmos-
phere of gaiety which surround
the former governor will be tenn
pered, never doubt. 1t should
not come to pass that home low
ing women will object their bus
bands being inaugurated in this
state.
The main features in the mes
sage to the legislature were those
things Gov. Gardner particularly
desires to accomplish during the
|next1o 1ouryyears. First, reform
of the states financial system;
second, the best arrangements
for the Penal institution; and
third, a system for securing and
maintaining good roads. Pied
ing his best efforts in Office and
asking assistance from all rep
resentatives and other officials
regardless of politics, the gov
ernor concluded his address and
was universally applauded.

NO WET TO DRY
Federal Supreme Court Settles
Question. West Virginia Law
Sustained. Drys Jubilant

Monday the Supreme Court of
the United States declared the
West Virginia law which prohi-
bited the shipment into that
! State by any other of intoxicat-
ing liquors invalid, seven of the
Supreme judges joining in the
opinion to two against, the JUS
tice Reynolds, while agreeing
with the majority, did not con-
Sear in the opinion, making it
actually 6 to 3.
The w. Va. law prohibits the
manufacture and sale of all in
toxicants except for medical,
sacramental and manufacturing
purposes, and prohibits the
shipment into the State and
transportation about the State OF
intoxicants, tho permitting per-
sonal use.
The decision may be regard
ed by Congress as an interfer-
ence with its constitutional right
TO regulate commerce between
the States.
