gun to look upon him as a public
benefactor because of his work in
opening up the great mining prop
erty, with which he has been so
closely identified, and because of
the liberal treatment of the men
in his employ and because of the
many industries that have sprung
up and prospered as a result of
the energy and push which he has
displayed.
At the time of his death he was
about go years of age. Always
temperate in his habits he was,
both physically and mentally, a
very sound man and his untimely
taking off is a great and irrepaira-
BILE loss, not only to his wife and
family but to the community at
large, which had begun to place
SO much confidence in the man
and his work.
He leaves a wife and five sons
to mourn his loss-a loss which is
shared by every one in the val
ley.
Mr. Ferris left a will which was

reach thirty, when the remainder
is to be paid over.

Stage Line to Walcott.

From George w. Sisson, of the
Wyoming Southern Stage Co. we
learn that the company will dis
continue the present line about
the first of November and start a
line from Walcott to Saratoga.
AS the distance from Saratoga to
Wnlcott is but % miles it will be
quite a saving in expense and
time as well as horse flesh, as the
time made over the Rawlins road
is a horse-killer. The company
will put their regular slx-horse
coaches Oh this road.

ROAD OPEN TO RUDEFEHA.
Fires Under Control on the Mountain
This Side of Spring Creek-The
1000 Cords of Wood Safe.

G.. w. Wilkins, who is interest
ed inf the Paris group, just over
n ridge south of the Rudefeha,
came down from that place Tues
day. When questioned in rela-
ton to the condition of the fires
on the road from here to the mines
said:
THE FIRE between here and the
Rudefeha is now under control.
There has been-and is nova
force of men back-fring and fight
ing the fires this side of the mine
for the past four or five days.
The fire crossed the ore road sew
eral times, zigzagging back and
and forth, but they have used
shovels to smother it with dirt,
wherever they could get at it, I'M
til they now have it under control.
Fortunately it passed north of
hat large body of timber on the
north of the mountain and did it
no harm. 1t also passed north of
the Company's wood and that is
safe now. unless a fire should
break out in a new place.
"The fire over south and west
of the mine is under control, and
there is no danger, whatever, from
that source. We cut a fire guard
ahead of that fire, but it did no
good. l have seen the fire come
up to that guard and send sparks
across into the timber a quarter of
a mile ahead and in a few minutes
they would be famed into flames
and go roaring on with terrific
force, sweeping all before it.

A PLEASANT PARTY,
Members of The Baptist Church Show
Appreciation of Their Pastor
Rev. |. W. Corey.
CELEBRATED HIS BIRTHDAY.

Many Friends of the Minister Gather at his
Home and Pleasant Evening is Spent =
MIR. Corey Falls an Easy Victim to the
Surprise Planned by his Friends Mem
bers of the Church Present. the Pastor
With Purse.
Monday was the forty-fourth ami
versary of the birth of Rev. /. w. Corey
the popular pastor of the First Baptist
church and the occasion was made the
event of one of the most pleasant social
parties ever given in Kenosha.
Early in the morning Mr.. Corey was
spirited off to Chicago and as soon as
he was out of town the young people of
the church began to arrange for the
party. The house was taken possession
of and pretti1y decorated with palms
and flowers and the 1arder was we'll
stocked with refreshments, which were
to be served at the time when the min
lister returned.
Rev. Corey spent he day in Chicago
and returned on the 6:18 train in the
evening. When he reached home and
walked into the par1or a mighty shout
of welcome went up and the guests be-
gan to sing "B1est be the Tie That
Binds" Mr.. Corey was completely
surprised. Indeed he had quite forgot
ten the fact that he was celebrating an
anniversary and it took him quite a
little time to regain his nerves, which
had been shattered by the very i'm
promptu visit from the members cf the
congregation. However, he recovered
his composure and assisted in enter
tanning the members of the church in
royal manner. Games and music
made the hours of the evening pass in
very delightful manner and every
one of the fifty guests present had
splendid time
Towards the close of the evening
Herbert Coshun, Superintendent of the
Sunday school, called the minister to
one side and presented him with a
purse as token of the love and respect
in which he is held by the entire con-
gregation. In accepting the proffered
gift the minister spoke feeling1y of the
warm, brother1y feeling existing in the
church in Kenosha and expressed hope
that this feeling would continue as
long as he was permitted to serve the
church in the capacity of pastor.
After the presentation speech had
been made the guests retired to the
dining room where delicious refresh
ments were served.
The little party and the attendant
circumstances speak volumes for the
work of Rev. Corey in Kenosha. No
church in the city is in better condition
than the Baptist and this condition is
largely the result of the warm feeling
existing between the pastor and the
people.
We extend to Rev. Corey our best
congratulations and hope that his
church will gather on many successive
occasions to celebrate his birthday
anniversaries.

WORST OF THE SEASON.
Binding Snow Storm Impedes Traffic to
and From Kenosha.

The storm which prevailed in Keno
sha last night and this morning has
proved the most terrific one of the sea-
son. In all parts of the city the snow
has drifted and the walks are almost
impossible. The storm has complete
1y crippled business for the morning
and hardly a dozen people were seen on
Main street before the noon hour. The
railways leading to and from the city
are also badly handicapped. The M,
r. s. K. trains are not running at all
and the trains of the Northwestern are
nearly all behind time. The tracks of
the NJ, r. & K. are completely covered
by the drifts and it is hardly possible
that the cars will be running again be-
fore tomorrow noon.
The farmers coming in from the
country report that the storm was not
SO severe in the outlying districts as in
the city. The weather man reports
that the storm will be over this evening
and fair weather will arrive tomorrow.

The School Board met last Wednes-
day and elected the following teachers
for the Providence public school for
the next session: Prof. Robt. Rob-
erts, principal; Miss Eddie Bass, LIST
assistant; Miss Mary Beard, End as
sistant; Miss Carrie Jackson, 3rd as
sistant. The same teachers for the
country schools were reelected. The
Banner-Democrat regrets to see the re-
moval of Miss Maud Taylor from the
school in Providence. She has always
been very conscientious in the dis
charge of her duties, and for some
years past has made it rule to &c
north to some Chautauqua and take
course of studies. Miss Taylor is one
of the most capable teachers. in the
4 parish. We do not mean to cast any
reflection on the School Board by these
remarks, but we make them because
we think the estimable lady is deserv
ing of some public recognition OF he
services. Miss Eddie Bass is s. capable
young lady, and her experience OF tn
past two years as teacher in Alabam
has, no doubt. fitted her to fulfill tn
duties of the position to which she ha
just been elected.
