A good modern hospital is to be

decided Monday should be sold and
the proceeds placed in . building fund

ern central school building instead Of
the group Of three small buildings
that we have at present. That Is,
this will be done Il the county's o6er
of $1,000 is accepted by, the school
hoard. and it seems the general i'm
preston that such will be the case.
The present county hospital is too
small and cannot be made modern as
wished. If the school building Is se-
cured. it will be modernized with =
furnace, toilets, sewer connections, .
new roof, etc., and as surrounded by
lovely trees and plenty Of vacant
ground, can be made into beauty
spot. There will be plenty of room
for modern hospital equipment, and u
the city wishes to equip . room Tor
its use, this can be done.

which were finally completed and read
by Judge Logan at 4:30 yesterday
evening. The people made their OPEN
ing statement this morning at 300
o'clock through Judge Adams of Tellu-
ride.
The evidence has seemed light for
conviction, and an acquittal seems to
be- generally expected. The case has
excited much interest throughout the
state and has been made an issue by
the laboring men. Editor Chiarig-
lione of L'Unione, = Pueblo foreign
language newspaper, started the cam
paiGn several months ago for q fund
to defend Kochevar, collecting a few
cents each from thousands Of foreign
ers in the state
There seems to be q determined ef-
fort ON the part Of the defense to con-
meet the killing with others than the
defendant and the two men already
convicted. A miner named George"
who skipped out the day after the
murder and has never been seen
since is the peg on which the murders
are to be hung If possible, and Il Is
l1mored that new trials will be asked
for the two offers"
Giacomozzi and Morletti, the two
men convicted of the murders in the
previous trial, testified for the defense
on Wednesday and were returned to
Canon City Thursday night.
This case has been particularly
tedious, altho at might have been
worse" About thirty-fve witnesses
were slated for appearance by the
prosecution and only eleven were
called. The defense called thirteen.
The case was delayed for two DAYS on,
account of sickness on the part of the
Jurors. Ralph r. Allen, faremana Of
the jury addressed the court Tuesday,
afternoon on behalf of the. rest Of the
jury and asked that the case be ex-s
pedited, as the business affairs of the
jurors were suffering and that altho,
they did not object to serving the state
as best they could. still they believed
the case could Be speeded up greatly;
and particularly that morning see-
sions begin at . o'clock instead Of ESQ,
stx and the evenipgs employed. Judge
Logan explained why this would oyer-
work the lawyers.
The gravity Of the case was relfev-
ed at times when the Judge would
