News from Rocky Ford.

A few days since Two young men
from Rocky Ford paid La Junta a
visit. A group OF nine county seat
chaps thought to bulldoze the
country" boys. Their buggy was
taken around to the alley and when
the Fordites went out to start
home they were assaulted by the
nine hoodlums. The larger lad
from the melon metropolis very
promptly knocked down three Of
the assailants in rapid succession.
Only partial victory, however,
perched on the banner OF our boys
as they were compelled to seek the
shelter OF a hotel and remain until
morning. No explanation is known
for the assault, as no i'll feeling is
known to have existed between the
parties belligerent. Enterprise

We believe Chamberlain Cough
Remedy is the best in the world.
a few weeks ago we suffered with
severe cold and a troublesome
cough, and having read their ad-
vertisements in our own and other
papers, we purchased bottle to
see if il would affect us. 1t cured
US before the bottle was more than
half used. 1t is the best medicine
out for colds and coughs. The

compass in short order. Some
had buckets, others utilized the
tin can typical OF the tribe. while
others were content to lie on the
ground and let a steady stream
course down their esophagus into
their vi,als. There was great Joy
along the river bank, where the
hobo element congregates, for a
brief season, but it was different
yesterday morning-so different.

Mos. Any Old one. Would Do.

A very modest application from
noble son Of Germany was read
at the city council meeting Monday
night. He did not seem to have
any special preference as to which
Office he was elected to, but he
seemed very desirous of serving the
city in some capacity. The ap-
plication read as follows: "To the
Mayor and City Council make
ALLEGATION for water commissioner,
oder street commissioner, oder
marshal" The council passed it
up.
