TERRELL OFFICERS
HAVE PROBLEM NOW
What to Do With Hardy Murray,
Insane Negro, Worries Off
Gals at Dawson

DAWSON July 28.-County of
licials here are in a quandary in
regard to what disposition to make
of Hardy Murray, a negro who is
held in Jail at Dawson because of
a deranged mind.
Murray's people, who live on the
Worsham place, near Worner, six
miles north Of Dawson, several
months ago went to South Carolina
and took him out of the state as
ylum there, thinking that he was
mentally sound again.
A short while after the negro
reached home he became deranged
again to such an extent that it was
unsafe for him to be at liberty.
Sheriff Woods was called, and
brought Murray to Dawson and
placed him in Jail. The officers
saw that he is a citizen of South
Carolina, and cannot be admitted
to the Georgia asylum at Milledge,
Vile
Efforts are being made to ha' G
his people send him back to South
Carolina, but so far they have not
done so.

REVOLUTION IN OLD EGYPT
Records Tell of Uprising Which Evil
IDENTIFY Ended UnhappiIy for the
RebelIious Citizens.

recently deciphered papyrus
shows a pretty revolutionary spirit
among the Egyptians in the year 1000
b. c.. or nearly 1000 years before
the French thought of an upheaval.
The period is between the old and the
middle kingdom, and an Egyptian
sage plaintively invites the king to
save his people in telling him of the
conditions of the country. He tells
him that "that is past which yeSter-
day could be seen. The land turns
like potter's wheel. The noble cry
out and the poor are full of joy. Each
town says, Let us drive the strong
from without our midstr Those who
wore clothes are now in rags. Noble
women trail through the land, and
housewives say, Had we only some
thing to eatl' The poor pos
sess lordly things, and those who
could buy themselves no sandals now
have treasure. The people
hove dethroned the king and perse-
cuted his officials" That the revolu-
tion was a success seems hardly to
have been the case, for the papyrus
goes on to say that laughter has gone;
misery is in the land; big and small
say, "If only 1 were dead"

HENRY H. HAlNEs, PUBLIC STEM
oGRAPHER AND NOTARY PUB
Lie, oBEYS THE LAST
SUMMONS
BY Hewetson-Watson

Death is dawn, the waking from d
weary night of fevers unto truth and
light"
In the death of Henry III. Haines,
public stenographer, notary public and
energetic secretary of Mountain Lodge
No. 80, Improved Benevolent Protec-
tive Order Elks of the World, the citi-
zens of Denver have lost man who
did much in his devotion to the train
ing of the youth, the development and
encouragement of institutions for the
moral, religious and fraternal uplift
of the community, and his zeal and un-
stinted support in the promotion of
anything that catered to human well
fare and happiness stood conspicuous
ly as features of his life that We're un-
surpassed among his friends and asso-
ciates - professional or otherwise.
Born in Boston, Mass, Feb. II, 1873, of
Henry and Elizabeth HaineS (his par
ents who have predeceased him), he re-
ceived his early training in the public
schools, and after college career en-
tered upon commercial studies, quail
fying as professional stenographer
Cleveland, Ohio. He decided to cast
his lot in the progressive western
field over two years ago, and took up
n position with the American Wood
men as private secretary to the late
Supreme Commander Il. @. White, re-
signing to devote his time TO his class
es in stenography and the service OF
the Fraternal Organization of Elks, be
coming its secretary. He was an ard
ent devotee and advocate of the ORDER
of Elks, and his unceasing and untlr-
ing efforts to make this fraternal or
der second to none preyed upon ms
physical ability to the extent OF Il
breakdown, which affected him four
weeks ago when he entered an hos
pital, succumbing last Friday evening.
During his illness he was constantly
visited and attended by brothers of the
lodge by a host of friends, black and
white, many of whom were his pupils.
He will be greatly missed in the com
munity, for his liberal views on all sub
iects affecting the people, and the
COLORADO STATESMAN joins the
large number of friends in extending
heartfelt sympathy over his demise.
He leaves sister, Mrs Ethel Sanford
of either New York or Boston. The
body will lie in state at the Peoples
Mortuary, Twenty-seventh and Welton
street, from this morning until SUNDAY
afternoon at l o'clock
Funeral services in charge of Noun
tain Lodge of Elks, No. 80, will be held
from the Church of the Redeemer to-
morrow Sunday, 2p. m, Rev. Father
Rahming officiating. Interment at
Riverside, where the Elks' ceremony

WILLING TO ADMIT ANYTHING
Owner OF Winning Dog Evidently Had
Heard of the Efficacy of a
Soft Answer.

A retired priZefighter amused him
self by keeping fighting dogs, which
he encouraged to quarrel with other
dogs for tie sake of the pleasure OF
witnessing the encounter, and it was
his boast that no dog of his was ever
beaten. One day, however, when out
for Il walk with one of his favorite ami
mails dog was met which proved too
good for that of the prizefghter. The
combat was brief but decisive, and the
pride of the owner of the defeated dog
was deeply wou i'ded. He was furious
"Did you see the fight? he said to
the owner of the other dog, who had
been the only other witness of the
affray. "Yes," said he. "And which
was the best dog?' the pugilist in
quired. "Why, yours, of course!' was
the discreet answer, for the owner of
the conqueror recognized that he was in
the company of a desperate character
"Certainly, your dog gave up and ran
away, but it was plain that it was be-
cause he found mire too small game
and left him, in contempt!" "That's
right !" said the prizefighter. 'If my
dog hadn't licked yours 1 should have

MEMBERS OF GREW DIE AS EN-.
CINE ROLLS OVER WHILE
ROUNDING CURVE

D0l Springs JuHcllOI, ATlI.-lH tilc
cactus-lined desert country one and
one-half miles west of here, lay the
wreckage of the locomotive and three
coaches of westbound California Linz
tied No. 3, crack Santa Fe train.
Four trainmen were crushed to death
when the engine overturned and the
head coaches crashed into it while
rounding IA sharp bend in the road.
When the wreck occurred the train
was travelling about forty miles an
hour over a detour made necessary by
undermined roadbeds and washouts on
the main line of the road in northern
Arizona.
Passengers were hurled from their
seats by the impact and some suffered
minor abrasions, but none was listed
as injured.
The dead: ]. j. Timm, Needles,
Calf, engineer; f. NJ. Tuttle, Needles,
fireman; Coleman, Chicago barber; c.
Elliott, Chicago, porter.
The wrecked train was the second
section of the Number 3 train. 1t left
Chicago for Los Angeles and carried
12S passengers
The engine turned over on its left
side, while turning the sharp right
curve, and the wooden buffet car be-
hind it, used by members of the crew
hurdled the locomotive and was dashed
to splinters. The porter and barber
met death in this car. They were its
only occupants at the time of the
wreck.
Two steel mail cars, which had been
attached to the train when 1t passed
through Phoenix, about two hours be-
fore the wreck, rolled over the EN-
bankment and plowed into the locomo-
tive. Behind the mail cars, another
buffet car and a Pullman partly left
the rails. Windows We're shattered,
tracks were twisted about, but occu-
pants of the care were uninjured.
Passengers on the train attributed
their escape from death to the fact
that the mail cars had been placed
behind the locomotive at Phoenix thus
placing the Pullman cars well back
from the engine. There were five
Pullman cars on the train.
After the impact, which came with
startling suddenness and sent pas
sengers sprawling from their seats,
women and men poured from their
coaches and rushed to the wrecked
cars ahead. The dead fireman and
engineer were eXtricated from be-
meath the wreckage of the cab.
A wrecking train was called from
Phoenix, carrying doctors and work
ing crews.
Calm pervaded the ranks of the pas
sengers after the wreck. None was
hysterical, and women, who had run
about at first seeking to aid others
whom they thought must have been
injured, settled down and faced the
trial of awaiting the rescue train as
bravely as the men.
The scene of the wreck is an iso-
lated spot in the desert west of here,
located where the wrecked cars could
not be seen from the highway only IL
half mile away. Great pine cactus
and weeds, coyotes and other wild
game are all that thrive in the section
