of it.
The Harvest Supper at Catlin was a
delightful affair, everybody seemed to
enjoy themselves. The tables fairly
groaned under their bountiful weight of
good things. (Those who INDUCED too
freely did their groaning later.)
Since the NJ. E. Church movement was
begun the size of the proposed building
has been increased, thanks to the inter-
est taken in the enterprise by many
friends in Catlin and vicinity. The plans
MS now perfected will secure one of the
haudsomest little churches in the valley,
and be a credit to much larger place
than Catlin. A meeting OF the official

d. B. Lee returned last Friday from
Vevay, Ind, where he was called several
weeks ago by the illness and death of
his mother.
Will Reed came down from the noun
tains last week.
H. D. g. Nancrede recently shipped
his household goods to Colo. Springs.
Candidates are getting to be quite
numerous in this vicinity.
The Santa Fe Co. has built substan-
tial new coal house for w. H. Allen to
replace the one burned up some time
ago.
1. D. Hale was in town Saturday.
Jas McNeen, of La Junta, was in Fow-
Ter recently.
A. H. McMaster has sold his store
buildings to Clint Hainey who will run
the barber shop there in future.
Our post office has been lately inspect
cd by q. S. official and pronounced to
be in iirst-class condition-a compliment
to MIR. Denney.
The manouvres OF Hosea Beckstead
in buying the Nancrede property and fur
nishings the house throughout with bran
new furniture looked very suspicious.
The secret is now out. He has taken
unto himself wife, Miss Ellen Sparger.
They have our best wishes for u prosper
GUS and happy welded life.
On Sunday last Mr.. and Mrs. Thos.
Gage lost their youngest child from
c!solera infantum. 1t was buried at the
Nepesta cemetery Monday afternoon.
Mr. and Mrs. Cage have tho sincere
sympathy of tho entire community.
Mrs. C. G. Ament and son visited at
the home OF her parents, Mr.. and Mrs.
TLos. Sims, last week.
Our ranchmen have "got it in for" the
threshing machines OF this neighborhood
in the future. We don't blame them,
they have been treated wrongfully.
Again the need of burying ground
has been brought before US. This thing
certainly ought not to be put off longer.
Neither Nepesta nor Rocky Ford suits
us, owing to the unattractiveness of tho
former, and the distance Of the latter.
Last Sunday morning our little village
was again aroused by the alarm OF fire
given by the whistle of locomotive that
happened to be on the switch. The
hotel and residence of W. H. Allen was
seen to be sheet of fire covering almost
the entire roof of the building. The
alarm was quickly responded to by 25 or
80 men and women with buckets of water.
The fight was hot and stoutly contested.
For several minutes little was gained by
either side; but soon the fire began to
yield and at last the building was all
saved except the roof. Mr.. Denney and
Harry Lee again (among many others)
won honors as brave firemen. We GER
tainly shall have to organize fire COM
pany.
