BUTCHERS BEEF.
Don't like the Idea Of Being Forced to
File . Bond to Do Business

A. w. Parks and f Rogers, of
Fowler, were arrested last week
on complain, OF Cattle Inspector
Mosby Lee, charged with slaught-
ering beef and carrying on a meat
market withou, butchers license.
They pleaded guilty to the charge
before Justice NJ. FInity Monday
afternoon and were fined the mini
mum sum provided for in the law
$50 and costs. The law very
plainly states that ITS violators
shall be fined not less than $50 nor
more than 81, 900, and as the de-
PENDANTS admitted tn offense al
legged to have been committed
Judge Finity had no other recourse
in the matter.
Messrs Parks and Rogers were
evidently of the opinion that this
law was only a bluff, treating the
matter very lightly and refusing TO
employ an attorney until after the
Judgment OF the court had been
rendered. They have since ex
perienced change OF heart, en-
ployed an attorney and filed an
appeal bond in the county court
The case will come up at the regu
lar term OF the county court.
Every person engaging in the
business of slaughtering horned
cattle for the market must file a
bond with the county commits
sioners in a sum no, less than
81, 900 nor more than S5, 900. The
penalty is fine not less than $50
nor more than sIoo for each day
so engaged.

GOLD MEDAL CONTEST.
Sis Contestsnts Enter the Arena with
Blood In Their Eyes-A Fight
to Finish.

Notwithstanding the cold and
stormy weather the opera house
was well filled last Saturday even
ing to listen with anxiously beat
ing hearts TO the rendering OF each
selection, and breathless eagerness
the decision OF the judges.
Since La Junta is no, blessed
with a single angel inhabitant.
three human beings were selected
as judges-human beings, with all
their faults and short comings,
subject to the mistakes, predju-
dices, temptations, and ills in gen
eral that flesh is heir to.
All OF the contestants seemed to
possess more than average talent
and acquitted themselves in very
worthy manner. The first CON
testant, Miss Clara Hiscock, was
calm and deliberate in delivery,
and her enunciation was clear and
distinct. She received first place.
Miss Lulu Chambers proved
herself the personification OF grace
IN gesture and position. She was
not so familiar with her selection
as she might have been, but de-
served much better place than
the judges gave her. She was
marked sixth.
Mr.. Claude Fairchild rendered
his selection in truly creditable
manner. He was enthusiastic and
felt deeply every word he spoke.

Chamberlain. Cough Remedy.

This remedy is intended es-
pecially for coughs, colds, Group,
whooping cough and influenza. 1t
has become famous for It's cures of
these diseases, over a large part OF
the civilized world The most
fiattering testimonials have been
received, giving accounts OF its
good works; OF the aggravating
and persistent coughs it has cured /;
of severe colds that have yielded
promptly to its soothing effects,
and of the dangerous attacks OF
Group it has cured, often saving
the life OF the child. The extensive
use OF il for whooping cough has
shown that it robs that disease of
all dangerous consequences. For

500 Reward, $,oo.

The readers of this paper will be
pleased to learn that there is at
least one dreaded disease that
science has been able to cure in all
its stages and that is Catarrh.
Halls Catarrh Cure is the only
positive cure now known to the
medical fraternity. Catarrh being
a constitutional disease, requires
constitutional treatment. Halls
Catarrh Cure is taken internally,
acting directly upon the blood and
mucous surfaces of the system,
thereby destroying the foundation
OF the disease, and giving the
patient strength by building up
the constitution and assisting
nature in doing its work. The
proprietors have SO much faith in
its curative powers, that they
La Junta tribune., 1899-03-01

Scarce fault could be found with
his rendering and had he been OF
the opposite sex would have easily
taken first place. All men are
susceptible to the smiles OF a
woman, hence Mr.. Fairchild re
ceived fifth place.
The feature OF Miss Grace
Weatherbys recitation was her ar
ticulation. In. this she far sur
passed the other contestants, but
in gesture, Interpretation and ex-
preston was deficient. She was
awarded second place.
Miss Ina Grimes captured the
audience by her rendition OF 1.-The
Martyrcd Mother" She was easy
and graceful in manner and her
enunciation was clear and distinct.
The effort would have been a credit
to one OF much more mature years
and experience. She has the
promise OF a successful career IN
elecu,ionary lines. Miss Grimes
was given fourth place.
Miss May Fosters effort "Noble
Christian Womanhood' was de-
Iivered with much earnestness and
she evidently felt all that she said.
1t was well received by the
audience Miss Foster was given
third place.
The musical numbers introduced
in the programme were excellent,
the baritone solo OF Mr. Edwin
Dodds being especially fine.
