News just received by special messen-

Northern Routt county indicates that
the trouble between the cattle and sheep
men is over, for the present at least.
Actual facts 20 10 show that many
false reports were circulated. Instead
Of 800, 30 clttlpmen actually left Hay
den for the scene of trouble, only to find
from 1,S00 to 2o90 sheep in Colorado

by six herders and foreman. The bal

Down in the betting ring under the

Thirty per cent. Of the girls who

that since the clOSing-up OF the houses

An appeal is made to the prominent
clergy Of the United States for the sup

condemns the coming .'mannlsb w0-

an unnecessary evil in this country.
