miners, was shot and killed by Marshal
Jack Kelly of Altman. The marshal also
shot George Post, a miner. who was with

ly ordered him out of town. Smith began

rested at Grand J unction'two months ago

over an hour.
When he recovered consciousness. he
found himself stretched across his horse‘s

wagon had been overturned. the harness
was broken and tangled. and the horse lay
on his side in the ditch. Baker‘s moans

been so low. If we are rightly informed no one attempts to give as much space
nor to otter so large an assortment. The conveniences for buying are perfect. The
stock is without peer. rival or competitor, because it is unmatched and unap-

neglects this stock buys ignorantly. These lots are worth noticing;
