re Killed by Anarchist as He Admin- istered the Sacrament, ————— GAUSED PANIC IN CHURCH | an—————— Denver, Colo., Feb. 24. —Father Lec Heinrichs was shot and killed by Giu geppe Guarnaccto, an avowed anar chist and priest hater, while the priest was administering sacrament at early mass in St. Elizabeth's Roman Catholic church. Kneeling at the altar rail be tween two women, Guarnaccto pressed the muzzle of a revolver against the body of the priest, after receiving from him the consecrated wafer, and shol the priest through the heart: Exclaim- Ing “My God, My God” Father Leo fell prone in front of the altar and died. With an inarticulate scream, the as sassin sprang into the aisle and, waiv- ing the smoking pistol about his head, dashed to the church door. For a moment, the hundred or more persons ifn the church were dazed. Then a woman shrieked and the congregation became panic stricken. Several women fainted and many others became hys- terical. Several men, including Patrol- man Daniel Cronin, started in pursuit of the murderer. Policeman Cronin overtook the fleeing Italian on the church steps. Guarnaccto attempted tc shoot the policeman, put was foiled and overpowered after a desperate struggle, in which several men assisted the officer. The murderer was hurriedly removed to the city jail. As threats of sum- mary vengeance were made by men who quickly gathered in front of the church. Chief of Police Michael De laney called out the reserve force of patrolmen, Guarnaccto was put in solitary con finement. He admitted to a policeman that the priest whom he had killed was a stranger to him and, in explanation of his crime, said: “] just went over there because I have a grudge against all priests in general. They are all against the working man. I went to the com- munion rail because I could get a better shot. I did not give a damn whether he was a German priest or any other kind of a priest. They are all in the sume class, “1 left Italy three months ago and went first to Central America and then eame to Denver. I am an anarchist and I am proud of it.

J., Feb. 25.—Because his wife refused to give him his week- ly allowance of one dollar out of his pay envelope, George R. Reade, a silk weaver, made a “desperate” attempt to commit suicide. Getting out his razor he dipped it fn the catsup bottle, and then poured the rest of the pottle’'s contents on his neck, giving it the appearance of having been cut. Then with a groan he fell to the floor. His wife dropped her paper and rushed into the room, and when she saw the “blood” on her husband's neck and the “bloody” razor lying on the floor beside him, ghe screamed for help. When a doctor was called he found Reade sitting on the floor. His neck was clean. The catsup had been “washed” off by his St. Bernard dog, as he lay “unconscious” on the floor, and, having no more tn keep up the deception, he admitted that he “wasn’t hurt much.” Because of the fright she received Mrs. Reade is under the care of a physician. ————————————————————— DENOUNCES THE PRESIDENT Maryland Republican Says Roosevelt's Advocacy of Taft Is a Humbug.

Stone, grand chief of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers, made the following statement in connection with the reported purpose of some railway sompanies to order a general reduction in the wages of employes: «The threatened reduction of the | wages of employes in train service is | absolutely unjustified from any point | of view. Their pay is based on mileage basis, practically piec2 work, and they are only paid when there are services to be performed. Wages of employes in train service fall parallel with the shrinkage in business, plus increased living expenses away from home. “rhe roads are getting the same re- turn in freight receipts for the services rendered as they did when the business was good, and there is no consistency in asking men to accept further reduc- tions than result from the present busi- ness shrinkage, and the full power of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engi- neers will be used, if necessary, in an effort to prevent any further reduction, because it would be agsolutely un- William C. Lee, assistant grand mas- ter of the Brotherhood of Railroad Trainmen, speaking for his organiza- tion on the same subject dictated the following: “The wage workers have not had a thing to do with this panic and loss of business, except to suffer from the mis- management of some employers and | speculators who blundered in the game of dollars on Wall street. | “If he works he produces just as | much per hour as he ever did; his liv- ing expenses are just as high as before. “All classes of trainmen are paid by the mile or trip, and a reduction of miles run, or trips made, means a re | duction of the amount paid for by the employer. | “Phere can be no good argument pre- sented why trainmen should receive lower trip, or mileage rates for miles run. Freight trains are not run unless business requires it. Corporations never carry an overload of labor, bit labor is usually compelled to carry an overload of capitalization. “1t is no fault of labor that finan- efers play with their money and lose, nor is it the business of labor to suffer the losses sustained when its employers reach too far into the fire and get their fingers burned. “Our principal business now is to maintain the present standard of liv- ing, which means to hold to the pres- ent standard of wages, and unless all signs fail, railroad emnloyes will op- pose to the bitter end any attempt to reduce wages.” THAW IN ASYLUM TO STAY Probability That He Will Spend Rest of His Life In Restraint. New York, Feb. 25.—Harry K. Thaw seems doomed to spend the rest of his life in an asylum for the insane. Ali- enists who have examined and observ- ed him since he was committed to Mat- teawan asvium are convinced that he {s a paranoiac, and this ailment is a progressive disease, it would appear that nothing short of a miracle can intervene to secure his freedom. Dr. Ferris, head of the state board of lunacy, on whose judgment Thaw's chances of liberty largely depends, was one of the alienists engaged by Dis- trict Attorney Jermone to testify at the first trial of Thaw. At that time Dr. Ferris was of the opinion that Thaw was a dangerous lunatic. It can now be stated on the highest authority that Dr. Ferris still holds that opinion. Books, MN ines, Ete.

For those who don’t like prepared roofing, or where shingles are more desirable—for certain styles of architecture, or repairing old roofs, there is only this kind of shingles. It the conditions that surrounded our grand-parents, those of endless tracts of Pine and Chestuut and other timber, coupled with impossible transportation, were here to-day, we might justify us- ing some other wood than Red Cedar. Bus things are so different now, that you can get Cedar a little better than any other kind. This comes from the Lumber Man knowing what is good and what is not, and getting a stock accordingly. Red Cedar is so far aliead of other possible woods to us here, thas there is no comparison. No impartial investigator would use any other. They do not curl, split or ros. They hold the nails and have long life. The B. L. C. make it a specialty of seeing that every bundle is of the very highest grade. They must be well seasoned and per- fect in every way. No imperfect shingles can pass this examina- tion. When the shingles are sent from bere, you can be confident that your roof will not leak if they are properly laid When the time comes to bay—will you give us your order ?
