the best OF the few teams on the western

The game could not be said to have
been brilliant one, yet it was not de
void Of interest there we're some very ex'
citing plays and the crowd rooted in
good atyle for their favorites.
The conclusion of the game saw the
Telluride boys the winners Of the game

The orps consisted Of Comrades Geo
w. Baker, old time army snare drum
mer, ]. r. Falls, base drumer, and s.

when it was battle to the front.
or course the vets came to The Senti

movement the writer has hardly ever
seen equalled.
The captain OF the corps---
taking position on the north side Of the
street simply blew his whistle and the
evolutions were performed.
There we're many and intricate move
ments in the drill, not the easy move
ments Of drum corps as they are very
frequently practiced, but the movements
Of we'll trained body of regulars who
are practicing at all times. The famous
Maltese cross was executed with q swing
which gave grace to one Of the hardest
formations in military evolutions. Not
one break was made in the drill during
the time Of the movements. which were
probably Of twenty minutes duration.
The corps certainly deserves great praise
for the manner OF their performance and
the people also must have thought 30, as

which witnessed the drill.

Sensation FizzIes Out.

Contesting tickets from the DemoGra-
icjudicial conventions Of the Seventh dis
trict were filed with Secretary of State
Beckwith yesterday. After the exciting
raceof the contestants from Montrose and
the long wait in the capitol corridors,
the grand final. in the secretary's office
was not marked by the exhibition Of fire.
works set down in the bill. In fact the
grand rush made by the three represn-
tatives of the contesting candidates for
first place at the desk, and the hubbub
caused by the twenty five adherents Of
the contestants who crowded around,
was the last scene OF the spectacular
event.
In the opinion of the secretary OF the
state the Importance OF securing first
place in the filing was entirely immeter-
ial, the contestants having an equal
chance without reference to order.
The tickets filed were those Of Theron
stevens, candidate for district judge.
Samuel McMullin, for district attorney
second, Melville B. Gerry, for Judge, and
John 7. Barnett, for attorney.
Three representatives of the warning
factions took up their positions outside
the door OF the secretary of states ofice

ed through the night for the opening OF
Office. Numerous efforts were made to
effect an entrance into the office, but
Chief Clerk Preston was on watch
throughout practically the same hours
and denied the contestants admission.

fifth inning. The SCORE at that time
stood two to two, whom on account OF
some dssision of the umpire. which the
Indian boys thought was rank, they de-
cided to leave tho field which they did.
No persuasion could induce them to re-
turn to play ball.
1t 10 unfortunate that the game ended
as it did, as it was fine exhibition OF
ball playing.
