When the short grass resident visits the

transacted, he seeks recreation in what
ever opportunity affords, whether in at
tendance at the theatre or in unbosoming
himself in a newspaper Interview 1t
happe ned that DIR. Simpsons recent
visit TO Kansas City he was allured by
the splendor of the show bills and pur-
chased ticket to the opera. It requires
not only ..artistic temperament but
much patience to appreciate the rhythmi-
cal but sonorous and ponderous strains of
the opera; and to these harmonious mu-
steal airs the unaccUstomed listener soon
tires. This was DR.. Simpsons expert
ence. The rhythm of the operatic song
did not arouse his musical taste. 1t had
too much swell. Leaving the exit he was
handed a return check. On reaching the
eoursing sweet melody, that not only
changed a curbstone seat with newsboy
For the remainder of the evening the
doctor delighted himself with the exer-
cises by the Salvation Army band. This
was not much to his taste as to his un-
derstanding, but it much more COM
pensatiug to his tired nerves. He sat
and listened to song and exhortation and
was inspired. The pentecostal song with
its rich melody sweeter than psalm, d,
touched him more than the high chords
in the operatic strains- And thus Doc
unconsciously kept time with his feet on
the sidewalk the beatings the drum
and tambourine and listened attentively
to the persuasive appeal of the hymn,

We have received copy of the Losanu-
Vile (Ind Journal. volume L, number
16, published by Rush Deardoff. The
Journal has printed in red letters at the
top of the first page, tsLet not the blood
of thy fellowman be upon thee. David
.'Look not upon the wine when it is red,
The paper makes vigorous fight against
the establishment of saloons in Losant-
vile, where there is already one saloon
The editor says: This editor claims the
prerogative to work for those things
which are The most beneficial to the COM
munity at large we'll for his own
personal welfare. The very idea that
the absence of saloon IN our midst will
work a detrment to the business inter-
ests of Losantville is simply preposterous,
and no one except those who tainper with
the vile trash will entertain such idea
for one moment. Let the saloon go from
our midst and regain former good
standing among the farming community
and then they will come back cur
| meechants and will be happy and
prosperous. May God lend his aid in
this good cause. We know the people
will.

That Badger Story.

The badger story, published in the
GLOBE -REPUBLICAN two weeks ago, in
which it was stated that George Courtney
was for three hours head foremost in a
badgers hole, was not exaggerated. Be-
cause written in the style of romance,
some allege, gave it the air of fiction.
But we are informed, through Courtney
himself, that we did no injustice to the
truth in our statement. In fact, there
were some features we did not emphasize
sufficiently.
Mr.. Courtney called to the dog to go
into the hole and get the badger, but
collie's former contact with the burrow
ed badger, gave him an experience which
filed him with caution. But collie's
sympathies were aroused when his master
called for help when had becomed fasten-
ed in the hole himself The dog baiked
wof ully. seeming to realize the predica-
ment, and tugged at his masters pants,
and in his extreme desire to extricate the
master he lacerated his flesh. George
says the dog was a great help to him. and
he believes without the dogs assistance
unless other help came he would have
persisted in the badgers hole. Whether
the dog gave him much help physically
or not, his constant bowling and tugging
was ynpathetically and morally helpful
to the entombed badger hunter
On his return home, Mrs. Courtney
bathed her husbands sore and laeerated
limbs with liniment, and the pains were
sufficiently sharp to indicate that Court
ney suffered from aches and wounds
Mrs. Courtney thought her husband was
so badly injured that he would be unable
to do anything for couple of weeks; but
with courage born of great trial, he
was able the next day TO go down to the
| RI,
/ On the side of his house hangs a badger
/ skin and George intend TO keep the peli
as a trophy of an unfortunate but sue
] cessful badger hunt.

r. M. Logan of Buena Vista was in
Delta last week on business connected
with the loan company he represents.
Mr.. Logan reports the Denver & Rio
Grande surveyors busy from Buena
Vista west over South Cottonwood pass
making permanent surveys for the new
cutoff from that place to Taylor Park.
Parties OF surveyors are now busy in
Taylor Park, running surveys toconnect
this new line with the line now being
built east from Delta to Crested Butte.
While no one in this part OF the country
has definite information on the subject.
it is evident that the D. & K. G. is going
to push the cutoff as fast as possible.
When this cutoff is once made it will
shorten the road from Buena Vista to
Grand Junction some two hundred
miles, an item in railroad maintenance
to be taken into consideration, when
time is beginning to cut such an i'm
portant part in tho transcontinental
travel. When the Acesuia cut off is
built from Denver to Buena Vista and
the line completed from here to Buena
Vista, the running time from Delta to
Denver ought to be cut to about nine
hours.-Delta Independent.
