THE FIGHT AT GLENCOE.
Beers Reported Beaten Back with
Heavy Loss.

GLENCOE CAMP, Oct. 21.-The bat
tie yesterday was brilliant success.
The Beers got a reverse which may pos
sibly, for time at any rate, check all
aggressive action.
The British artillery practice in the
early part of the day decided the battle.
The seizure of Dundee hill by the Beers
was surprise, for, although the pickets
had been exchanging shots all night, it
was not until shell doomed over the
town into the camp that their presence
was discovered. Then the shells came
fast. The hill was positively alive with
the swarming Beers. Still the British

DANGERS Of The Grin.

The greatest danger from La Grippe is
of its resulting in pneumonia. If reason
able care is used, however, and Cham
lain's Cough Remedy taken, all danger
will be avoided. Among the tens of
thousands who have used this remedy
for la grippe we have yet to learn OF a
single case having resulted in pnenmo-
MIA which shows conclusively that this
remedy is certain preventative of that
dangerous disease. 1t will cure la grippe
in less time than any other treatment.

CANADA LOOK OUT.

Boston-The movement looking to the
invasion of Canada by the Fenians and
advanced Irish Nationalists had been
agitated for some time by leaders Of

been identified with Irish agitations
mony years, said teday, there was TO be
meeting Of prominent Irish National
i.ts in Philadelphia next Sunday or
Monday to discuss the question OF In
vading Canada.
"This meeting" Col Scanned said,
will be followed by another in Boston,
whom reports from the Philadelphia
meeting will be made by the Boston del

Stabbing Affair.

Late yesterday afternoon Thad Duck
ett was stabbed by h. A. Stansbury, a
cattleman. An old grudge over fnan-
sial affairs was probably the cause for
tho rash act.
1t appears that Stansbury had been
talking about Duckett and that the lat
ter, hearing it, remarked that Stansbury
had better do his talking TO his face.
Later on the men met on the corner oi
Fifth and Maip in front Of James Com
minis office, and a fight ensued which re-
suited in Duckstt receiving few slight
cuts. Stansbury was not arrested.

CHRISTMAS 1899
Big Volume of Business Done in
the Grand Valley-Prosper-
ity Has an Inning Here.

It has been quite number Of years
since the merchants Of this city have en-
joyed such prosperous Christmas
trade, as they have the holiday season OF
1899. Pho trade the fore part OF last
week was little light, but the last three
days trade made up for all deficiencies.
The trade OF SATURDAY was unprsssdent-
cd in the history Of tho city livery
merchant spoken to in relation to trade
says that without question they did the
largest Christmas trade Saturday in
the history OF the city.
Tho streets of the city Saturday last
were . sight to look at. All day long
they were crowded with people and hap
py purchasers Of presents and rsmem-
brances to friends. The stores were
packed and while each store had its
clercical force augmented by several, it
kept all busy handling trade.
No better index to the condition OF
times In the Grand valley could be had
than the volume OF trade done by the
local merchants. There was less credit
1oAVa oh0 kAV0h tAAoA VNoA OoAOAo sAN
there was a general disposition to pay
cash for all goods purchased. The
farmers had money and plenty OF it in
great mAny cases while there were few.
il any. without some money to spend for
Christmas purchases.
Ono condition existed which should be
matter OF pride to all those who are
anxious to SEQ the city push to the fore
is that almost any class Of merchandise
which WAS desired was obtainable In the
large stocks Of all the merchants. In
fact no better stocks could have been
found outside OF the largest cities than
were found right here in the stores OF
our home merchants. There was no
necessity whatever 70 send out for goods
10 select presents from. This fact was
true Of almost every line Of goods with
out any exception.

Ed. F. Brown, Of more or less
local fame, is out in an evidently
inspired article in the Denver Re-
publican, talking the "still hunt"
proposition for an equalization Of
freight tariffs on railways. Mr..
Brown is so well known that his
talk will hardly be taken seriously,
as the gentleman has prediction
to stay very close to the sugar"
barrel. There is hardly question
that "still hunt" will produce a

Mr.. Brown is driving at in his

1t is to be hoped the trusts and
railroads will crack up prices and
tariffs considerably higher. They
are only up to the straining point
now and we want them to jump up
to where they will crack and go to
pieces. There is no adequate cause
for prices to rise, except to fill the
pockets of stock manipulators. The
newspapers stood patiently while
the paper trust socked it to them
and hereafter they should be given
