> WHO DO AS THEY ADVERTISE C
U J
ELEVEN WERE CAUGHT
IN THE DRAG NET
When Judge C. B. Hill opened po-j.
lice court this morning there were}
eleven sorry looking individuals be
fore him for examination. The mot
ley gang had been rounded up last
night in the railroad yards by Offi
cers Mahoney and Wharton. with the
exception of one man who had been
arrested by Officer Tom Rogers.
It was u typical collection of ho
boes. Nearly every man had the un
mistakable earmarks of the weary
tie-counters and lunch solicitors.
Over half of the bunch were travel
ing across the country together.
One very deplorable feature in con
nection with the array of offenders
waa the fact that a mere boy, not
more than sixteen years old. dirty,
unkempt and apparently dissolute,
brazen in the face of the court and
not shameful of the company in
which he was found, claimed asso
ciation with the gang of hoboes that
was traveling together. He was their
“mascot.”
Of course all kinds of stories and
hard luck histories were related to
the court. All were hunting work to
hear them tell It. The crowd was
charged with trespassing and with
being without visible means of sup
port.
After hearing what each had to say
the court disposed of the cases each
on its merits, as follows: All found
guilty and assessed u line of $5.00
and costs each. Sentence was sus
pended in the case of eight and these
were given two lioutb to leave town.
The three others were ordered held
in custody and given memberships on
the chain gang.

THE DAILY SENTINEL, GRAND JUNCTION, COLORADO
DEATH ANGEL COMES
THOUGH LONG DELAYED
Peacefully and Without a Struggle
Leland Bull Passes Away—Fu
neral Tomorrow Afternoon.
A Leland Bull is dead. Anoth- A
A er beautiful child has been A
A called from its earthly borne A
A to ,J e with its Maker in the A
A “City Not Builded by Hands.” A
A Another sweet existence has A
A been brought to a close. An- A*
A other life that gave every A*
, A promise of rounding out In a A|
.A brilliant career has been uu- A
'A timely ended. Another home AI
jA has been robbed of flower of A
A happiness and ray of childhood A'
A sunshine. A
For ten days between mortality J
I and Immortality, just at the brink !
just on the dividing line, the llttlej
life has hovered. Brave indeed was
the fight Leland Bull waged -against
the coming of the grim messenger.
Everything that medical science and
surgical skill could do to save the
boy, was done, but all in vain. At|
midnight last night the family gave,
up hope and at 2:45 o’clock this,
morning, calmly as if going Into aj
natural sleep Leland sank Into the
long, unbroken slumber, unbroken!
until the dawn of the morn of 'the
Resurrection.
About ten days ago it was found
j that Leland was suffering from a se
vere attack of appendicitis. An oper-j
J ation was performed very successful-1,
I ly, but a new development of disease :
| affecting the stomach arose and his i
condition grew very critical indeed, i
Another operation was found neces- i
sary as a last effort to save the boy’s |
life, noted physicians from the Rio i
Grande hospital at Salida came toh
the city and the operation was per- <
formed. For several days afterward <
it seemed as if Leland had a fight- '<
ing chance for h!s life. However at (
all times his condition was critical*|
and the odds were too greatly agansUj
him. Yesterday he began to grow s,
weaker and gradually sank until the |
end. j i
Never was there more Interest i
taken in, or anxiety felt over the con-| i
I dition of a child that was 111 in thisl
city, than was demonstrated in the}*
city among people of all classes, over:*
the condition of Leland Bull. Hun- 1
dreds of inquiries as to his condition
were made every day and everywhere
the hope that he might recover was
I expressed.
Leland Rowlee Bull was the
youngest son of Dr. and Mrs. Heman
R. Bull, the father being one of the
most prominent and successful phy
sicians in Colorado and for years one
o fthe leading and best known citi
zens of Grand Junction. The child
was born on December stli, 1895, and
was therefore some months over
eleven years of age. He was born
in this city. He was a remarkably
bright child, far advanced in his
studies, and peculiarly talented as a
musician, handling the violin as few
boys of his age ever did. Sunny In
disposition, genial hearted and at
tractive Leland was a favorite among j
playmates, and school mates. Hei
was indeed a loveable child. It isj
one of those unexplainable mysteries
why such bright lives shall be
snuffed out so ruthlessly.
There were only two children to
bless the Bull home, Sidney, nged 17
years, who survives his brother, and
Leland, now gone forever from that
happy noinc. Naturally the death is
a terrible blow to Dr. and Mrs. Bull
and In their hours of deep sorrow
there are hundreds who offer silent
but sincere sympathy.
An additional touch of sorrow is
added to the death of Lelund by tho
fact that his grandmother, Mrs.
Price, one of the pioneer residents of
the city and mother of Mrs. Bull and
Postmaster Price, is slowly sinking
to death at the Bull home. For days
her condition has been critical. Thus
the cloud of sorrow hanging over tlie• I
Bull home has been one of unusual,!
heaviness. For days It has been un- <
decided which would first answer the 1
call oT the Dark Angel, the aged I
womun or the young boy. The latter
is gone, the former still lingers. s

VISITOR IS FLEECED
BY AN OLD GAME
' Wlille Waiting in the Union Depot a
Man Is Worked by Two Yery
Smooth Individuals.
A a game that is almost as A
.(A °ld as the country Itself a vlsi- A
. A tor to the city whose name is A
A withheld, was worked very A
, A prettily at the union depot at A
. A this place on Saturday after- A
'A noon at a late hour. It seems A
. A that no confidence game gets A
'A too old to find a victim almost A
A every time it is worked. A
No. 3, Rio Grande passenger from
j the east, was several hours late on
I Saturday afternoon. A gentleman
| from one of the eastern states who
[ had been employed in a clerical po
sition with the government forces at
j the Gunnison tunnel, was sitting in
the main waiting room of the station
waiting for tin- delayed train. He de
sired to go to Salt I*ake City. He had
been in the city for two days and was
enjoying a vacation from his work,
i He was nicely dressed and withal a
j very good looking individual. Pres
ently an elegantly dressed stranger
j who had been walking about the
waiting room for some time wander
ed up to where the man from Mont
rose was sitting and taking a seat by
j him opened up an Informal and pleas
ant conversation on the general
I themes usually discussed wheu peo
ple are waiting for trains. The ele
-1 gantly dressed man asked the Mont
! rose man where he was going. “To
; Salt Lake for a few days,’’ the latter
responded. “Why, I am headed for
I there too,” exclaiedm the foxy stran
j ger. He then Informed the other
; nia ntliat he was the representative
[ of a big commercial firm, had been in
Grand Junction frequently and in
Salt a number of times. He
conversed smoothly and easily about
Grand Junction and Salt Lake, nam
ing many points of Interest in the
Mormon city, and thereby made him
self very agreeable Indeed. He of
fered to show the man from Montrose
around a little in Salt Lake as he
would be at leisure for a day or two
after arriving there.
By his courteous, genial manners,
good appearance and kindly offers the
elegantly dressed fellow easily found
his way into the confidence of the
| young man from Montrose.
! Shortly afterward the delayed train
I arrived and the two men entered a
car and sat down. A third man en
tered the car just then, walked up
|to the fashionable stranger and ex
tended to him a bill, stating at the
same time that the payment of the
bill would be a great accommodation
to him as u business man, sorry to
trouble the elegant stranger at this
time, etc., etc. "Why that's all right. 1
old man,” said the elegant individ
ual.” but I don’t see how I am going
to help you. If you had come a lit
tle earlier it would have been easy
but my chock book and practically all
of my ready money is in one of my
trunks, they are all piled up in the
baggage car and consequently I
can’t get the money out.” Turning
to the man from Montrose the hand
some stranger asked, “Maybe you
could give me a loan till we reach |
Salt Lake then I w ill hand it hack to
you.” Completely taken, in by his
new’ found friend and believing him
all right the young man said, “Sure
I will, how much you need?” Oh.
$20.00 will do,” replied the stranger.
The young man handed over two ten
dollar bills. “Now you hold these
seats till I get a receipt from this
man and I'll come back.”
Well, naturally the young man
waited and waited in vhin for his fine
friend's return. Presently he got un
easy and it finally dawned on him
that he had been duped. He left
the train aud let it go without him,
came up town and filed a complaint
with the officers but ull efforts to find
the smooth and elegant fleecer and
his confederate, the man with the
bill, failed. The Montrose man went
on to Salt Lake yesterday, poorer
but wiser by going up against this
long used game.
The Sentinel believes that the two
swindlers were “Col. W. J. Evis,” and
"Mr. W. A. Hilton,” who after pos-
I ing as rich men from the east, dress
j ing In the latest style, and after
'winning about S6OO from guests at
I poker tables, at the Hotel Colorado
'at Glenwood, were pounced on by the
' hotel's detective, branded as swind-
I lers, forced to pay back all their
: “winnings” nnd made to leave Glen
i wood. That was Friday night. They
came west and probably stopped over
here Saturday to work a few of the
gullible.

DR. CLARK HURT.
Dr. E. C. Clark, the well known
i dentist, was painfully injured late
yesterday afternoon in Glenwood
Springs. He was bathing in the big
pool and was standing near the end
, of the toboggan slide when a bather
, sliding down the steep incline sud
. denly struck Dr. Clark. The bather
, was coming down head first and his
. head struck Dr. Clark on the side of
k the face. Dr. Clark was rendered un
, conscious for a short time, however
„ he recovered and boarding the special'
, train just ready to pull out came to
, his home in this city. He is getting
: along nicely and his injury is not se
i rious. The bather who struck Dr.
i Clark was also severely shocked and
i painfully injured.
