them were also two $20 bills and two
$10 bills, which the miner stated this
morning looked like his money.
The story of the miner Is to the
effect that he was shown to his room
last night by Rlordan, but was not
given a key. He left the light burn
ing and later Rlordan came in and ask
ed him why he did not go to sleep and
turn the light out. He answered that
It was none of his business. He then
arose and propped a chair against the
door and went to sleep with the light
burning. Some time later, according
to his version of the story, he awoke
and found the light extinguished. He
Investigated and found his money gone
and that the door had been forced open
and was left standing ajar with the
chair pushed back from It.
He implicated Graves on account of
certain incidents of the night before.
He claims that Graves together with
Rlordan wanted him to drink with
them and he consented to drinking
beer, which one of them went to pro
cure. The liquor secured, however,
was not beer, Burns claims, but was
some kind of wine and he refused to
drink. Burns also accuses Graves of
having followed him during the even
ing.

UNKNOWN MAN,
IS DROWNED I
BODY OF DEAD MAN TAKEN FROM
HEAD RACE THIS MORNING
IDENTITY IS MY8TERY
INQUEST TO BE HELD
Coroner Will Investigate This After
noon—Conditions of Body Makes it
Evident That it Had Been In Water
8evera! Days.
From Wednesday's Daily.
An unknown man was found dead
this morning in the head-race lying
next to the guard locks of the red
house. The body was found about 8
o'clock by Charles Wilson and Frank
Johnson, who happened along at the
red house at this time. The back of
the man's head and shoulder were
above the water and in plain view.
The men immediately notified t.he po
lice who dragged the body from the
water and took it to Daggett's under
taking parlors.
At the undertaking parlors the
man's clothes were searched but noth
ing was found to Identify him. The
face and body were swollen and It is
evident that he had been in the water
for three or four days.
The body is that of a slender man
about 5 feet, 10 inches tali, sandy
complexion, with a short., sandy mus
tache, and light brown hair. His
mouth wag drawn in on the right side,
two teeth being out. He was dressed
in blue overalls, a blue jacket and a
black shirt.
How the man came to his death is
not known. A coroner's inquest will
be held at Daggett's undertaking par
lors this afternoon at 4 o'clock In or
der to investigate the matter. There is
nothing to show that the man had had
a struggle with any one as there are
no scars on his body. His eyes are
both black from the effects of the
water. It is supposed that he bad at
tempted to go across the narrow walk
in front of the red house and lost his
balance, falling into the water.
"SHE HATH DONE
WHAT SHE COULD"
REV. BARRETT'S SUBJECT AT EL
DON REVIVAL TUESDAY NIGHT
—TENT WAS CROWDED.
Eldon, June 4.—A large audience
gathered at the big tent last evening.
The chorus rendered good music un
til 8 o'clock followed by prayer by
Rev. Stiles, Luke xlv: 8, was used as a
text, "She hath done what she could."
Rev. Barrett said:
"This is our Savior's most loving
words recorded. Sweeter words from
him is not known by me. It was said
when Jesus was in the home of Simon
the leper only six days before his
crucifixion, Lazuries, Mar" and Mar
tha was with him and Mary had patd
$50. for a box of ointment of splck
noid and poured it over Christ and
some murmured at the extravagance.
"But Christ said 'it is well,' and told
them that he was soon to be cruolfled
but they would not believe him. Peter
said, 'Thou are the Christ, the Son of
the living God, and Lord, if you are
going to Jerusalem, I will go with you
and if there Is a scrap, I will help you,'
and he cut oft an ear. He was a fight
er, but at last denied Christ. This is
often the oase now. I want to have
zeal like Peter, and he is one I want
to see In heaven and ask" him some
questions. Still he sold his master
for $12, and Mary's box of ointment
cost $50. Her love never failed.
Mary's Love a Mother's Love.
"Some Christians would sell their
Master for less than $12. and others
would calculate lonsr about doing as
well as Mary. A Christian who has
Mary's love, has a mother's love and
will sacrifice everything for Christ or
her child. It is easy to get people to
do small things, but hard to get them
to do big things. One big thing Is to
stop using tobacco, and there is only
one place in the Blbl where it Is spok
en of: 'He that Is filthy, let him be
filthy still.'
"The girl who danoes is the hardest
to convert, as the fascination holds her
fast. The woman who repeats gossip
about others to injure is satan's best
friend. If you are goiner to be a Chris
tian, be a big one and work for God.
Do
your best and give the best to God,
like the Hindu mother with two
babies, one blind and the other not.
She threw the good -one in the Ganges,
and when asked why not the blind one.
she said her God demanded the best
she had. Every Christian should ren
der God the best they have always."
Was San Franolsco Newsboy.
Brother Barrett waj a newsboy in
San Francisco. He said that his life
up to the time of hls-conversion was
void of (rood, but since then he thank
od God, It was all given to his service.
When he was married he hated the
churches and church people, but his
wife asked him If sh© could erect a
family altar and he said yes. Every
night she would read a chapter then
kneel at his side and pray for his
conversion. He said If more wives
would do the same there would be
more Christian husbands. If they
would live a Christian life right and
have no errors in it. they would have
bettpr husbands. Brother Barrett
studied with Moody and was his secre
tary for a time. He was a sailnr and
served In the Spanish war with Roose
velt. He has been nreaching for four
teen years, and his record is gilt
edaed.
Next Sunday mornlnsr Rev. Barrett
will preach on "What the Eldon
churches Need": Sunday nluht on "A
Fool of a Woman and expects every
fool of a man In Eldon to come out to
hear abut her. Wednesday nierht his
subject will be "Worldliness. Dancing
and Card-Playing." Remember, these
are union revival meetings and all the
people are interested.
Card of Thanks.
Our heartfelt thanks are extended
to those kind friends and neighbors
for the assistance and words of con
dolence extended to us during our
recent bereavement.
