What's the Matter With Us?

There were goodly number of
gentlemen went from this city to
Fruita yesterday to witness the ball
game between the team at that place
and the Grand Junction men. If any
one went down there expecting to beat
the Fruita team they came home sadly
disappointed, although the score was
not SO ridiculous as might have been.
There was a score of 10 to 16 in favor
of the boys from the lower valley.
There We're several good plays made
by the home boys, but not enough.
Probably the principal reason was be-
cause the team was not in the best of
practice. 1t has been difficult for
those interested in base ball to secure
"A team, which could practice very
often or even though they practiced
could not get away from their bust
ness to attend the games. and their
places have to be filed with men who
were not in practice.
After the game there was a matched
bicycle race between Felix Carson of
tlls Guy anu ~. DaTDer VI rTuitd. LII
this also Fruita won out, Barber COM
ing out eight feet ahead in one mile
race. The race was good one and
was even more enjoyed than the ball
game. The people of Fruita and the
surrounding country turned out in
goodly number to witness the sports
and they We're correspondingly happy
when their men won out.

Millinery Opening.

The firm of Phillips & Bosom
opened their millinery store this
morning for their fall and winter
trade. The ladies of the city had
been invited and they turned out in
goodly numbers to see the exhibit.
The display was very neat and the
store was suitably decorated. A large
number of pattern hats We're shown,
which was special feature of the
opening. While the store was filed
almost all day with ladies who had
come down expressly to visit the
place, there was quiet order among
them, which is generally quite con-
trary to such events. Many creations
of the milliner's art brought forth
applause, but there was not so much of
the chatter which is common upon
such occasions.
The members of the firm were
pleasant and their assistants were
ever ready to answer questions re-
garding prices or other matters of in
terests to the customers.

Country Party.

There We're about fifty ladies and
gentlemen from this city who went to
the home of Allan Mcclure. northeast
of town, last night, and enjoyed sew
eral hours in the most pleasant man
ner. The party was composed prin-
cipally of the members of the Grand
Army of the Republic and the Wo-
mans Relief Corps.
The lawn at the Mcclure home was
well lighted and most of the time was
spent out of doors. There was some
music by the Bacon quartet, which
was most enjoyable. The drum corps
also entertained the guests. A string
band added much pleasure to the even
ing's entertainment.
There was q bountiful supply of
melons and fruit, which added to the
refreshments provided by the guests,
made a most delightful feast.
Those who went out from this city
were well pleased with the time they
had spent, and the family of Mr. Nc
Clure was happy to know they had
been able to entertain their friends.

Ladies Emporium Opening.

The Ladies' Emporium, Mesdames
Caldwell & Egeness, proprietors, held
its millinery opening this morning
and in fact throughout the entire day.
Great crowds of ladies and children
and even men visited this establish
ment during the hours of the opening
and all seemed to be much pleased
with the display.
The decorations of the store were
lavish and the styles for fall and Win
ter head wear We're shown to the best
advantage. The great demand in the
line of color is for the blue and green
but many will choose other shades on
account of the great amount of the
popular shades which will be worn
The shapes are similar to those of the
summer styles and the shades are of
lighter tints than the winter colors
generally are.
There We're enough assistants to
make each visitor feel that she could
get waited upon at any moment and
the hats were kept changing from one
hand to the other, rs intending pur-
chasers tried to suit themselves in a
style and color.
The opening was success and the
Emporium may feel that they have
started out with good impression for
the winter trade.

had been employed. If Mesa county

The amount of labor to be supplied to
such an industry would throw much
money into circulation and we should
make the necessary efforts this winter
to secure the building and equipment
of high class cannery.

Had a Good Time.

The members of the Women of
Woodcraft held one of the most pleas
ant sessions last night since their Or
ganization. and those who We're pres
ent to enjoy it, declare that the event
will cause the members of the order to
attend the meetings with greater reg
ularity than in the past few months.
There We're about fifty ladies in at
tendance last night which is speaking
well for this time of year.
After the order of business was con-
cluded, there was musical program,
rag time as we'll as that of a more
serious nature. There was ladies'
quartet composed of Mesdames Leslie,
Poage, Bedwell, and their singing was
very pleasing. Several solos We're
rendered, among them one by Miss de
la Martyr, and the ladies received
hearty applause for their efforts. Miss
Gretrude Cartmel furnished the in
strumental music, and was literally
cheered.
After the program was concluded
there were refreshments served by an
other committee and everything was
delicious, and pleasant for those who
We're there.
The social session last night is the
beginning of the good times which the
lodge expects to enjoy this winter.
The social life of the Woman of Wood
craft has been the one thing that has
made the order popular. and the mem.
bers do not feel that they can afford
to do away with it.

Delta Wants Montrose Girls.

Manager R. A. johnson, of the
Delta cannery, was in Montrose the
latter part of the week, seeking girls
for the cannery. He didn't want
them to can, he said, though some Of
them are nice enough to eat. but in

piece, girls earn from 81 to - per day,
according to expertness. Many of
them club together and thus reduce

ladies while here, though as yet we
haven't learned their names. He
says the cannery is working about 100
girls this year. Enterprise.

MESA COUNTY DEMOCRACY

The democrats of Mesa county are
meeting in convention today to select
delegates to the state and congression-
al conventions.
From all reports received from the
convention, the utmost harmony pre-
walls and factions that have been
working in opposite directions for
years are reunited and harmonious
We take it that from this II united
democracy will carry Mesa county
this fall. The republicans look with
considerable dissatisfaction upon II
reunited democracy. They know that
the democrats of Mesa county can
work, when all things are harmonious
and they will be in the present cam
paign, without any question of doubt,
There may be found here and there
disgruntled one, but the rank and
file of the party will be for success.
If there be a knocker in the party it
will be because he has not had some
personal ambition gratitied or he may
have felt that he was not accorded
the attention, which he thought he
deserved.
The party in any community is
greater than any individual and if
that individual be smart he will ac-
cept what his party has done for the
best interest of the whole and join for
the success which is bound to come
from unity.
The Sentinel is not tied to any fac
tion or party. 1t is the only avowed
democratic newspaper in Grand juno
tion and it will be found working for
the ticket in this falls campaign.
If there be n politician in the re-
publican ranks who thinks that Mesa
county is republican county, he will
be deceived in this campaign.
The majority received by republic
ans last year was the result of demo-
cratic votes, but they need count Oh
any such aid in this campaign.
The motto of the party should be
the motto adopted for the state For
ward and with that as battle cry,
serving political party of Mesa county
and that is the democratic party.

ly believe we could have secured sew

zEIGLER-C 0RCORAN BOUT.
More Money Bet Than on Any Bout
This Season.

More interest Is being taken in the
boxing bout that viii take place be-
tween owen H. Zeigler and Tommy
Corcoran tomorrow night than has
been shown in any bout that has been
pulled off in Savannah in many
months.
This interest is due not only to the
knowledge Of the Old rivalry between
these men, and Corcoran's acknowl-
edged ambition to whip first Zeigler
and then Jim Burke, in an effort to
place himself where he was when he
first met Zeigler and was defeated by
him, but also to the fact that Corco-
ran is really in the best form that he
has ever been lh in his pugilistic ca
reer and, having all at stake, means
to make the fight of his life.
He has improved marVeIously in
form and science within the past few
months, especially in ring tactics and
the ability to get around on his feet
Ihese improvements were most marked
in his last bout with Douglas, and
are now even more pronounced.
Aelgler too, is in good shape. Since
the articles for the bout were signed
he has been putting in conscientious
work, work that has given him his
experience in the ring, makes him as
dangerous an opponent as he was a
rev years ago when he won and held
against all corners the welter- weight
championship of the world.
Another sign of the decided interest
that is being taken in the bout is the
fact that a good deal of money is be-
Ing bet on the game. Practically none,
II, in fact, any, has been put up on
Corcoran to win out, though Tommy
Is confident he can and will do so, but
several hundred has been put up on
the proposition that Corcoran will stay
ten or more rounds. A bet of $1O0 that
Tom would stay at least ten rounds
was made last night Opinion is so
generally divided on this point that
all money offered finds takers
Zeigler will leave Savannah Tuesday
night for st. Louis, where he will Sec
ond Tommy Feltz in his bout with
Harry Forbes Thursday night. 1t is
possible also that while in st. Louis
he may take on a bout or two. Later
he Will visit Chicago, where he will
meet all corners, and possibly he may
make a trip to Cincinnati also. He
expects while away to make arrange
ments for one or more bouts with good
men, which will be pulled off in this
city under the auspices of the Savan-
nah Athletic Club
Quite a number of Savannahians in
terested in boxing will leave at the
came time that Zeigler does, and will
be present at the Feltz-F FORBES bout.
Without an exception they will back
the savannah man to win Such
Forbes money as could be found in Sa-
vannah, and there was very little of it,
has already been gobbled up.

Washington. Feb. 22.-The status of
Senators Tiliman and McLaurin is that
they are still in contempt of the Sen
ate, and only by vote of the Senate
cap either be recognized, either to
speak or to vote on any question what
ever. The Senate is operating under
a clause of section five, article one, or
the constitution, which recites:
Each house may determine the rules
of its proceedings, punish members for
disorderly behavior and with the con-
currence of tWo-thirds expel a men,
ber."
The Senate adopted a resolution, de-
claring both Senators Tillman and Nc
Laurin in contempt. By a vote both
were allowed to make statements, in
which both apologized for their actions.
But the Senate took no further action,
and the resolution referring the matter
to the Committee on Privileges and
Elections is still in operation, and I'M
Senate relieves the South Carolina SEN
ators of the contempt they must re-
main silent in the Senate. This is the
judgment of all senators who have con-
sidered the question and the presiding
officers, il is said, will refuse to recog-
nize their right to participate in the
proceedings until the order of contempt
is vacated,

AS he resumed his seat he made an
effort to compose himself as if to dis
pei any fear on the part of those about
him that it might have been his in
tention to precipitate further disturb
ances by any violent comments.
After some discussion it was ar

MIR. McLaurin of Mississippi then
took the floor in opposition to the pend
ing measure. He denounced the ma
jority's method and declared that the
policy was detrimental to the best in
terests of the United States. The Fill
pino people did not want the Ameri-
cans to rule them, and were firm for
independence. He said it was time the
United States returned to it's ancient
traditions to avoid the complications
of colonial government.

lost both the golf match and bowling
contest here to-day. The Savannah
golfers put up a good game and the To-

even this was won only by very mar

The match was not entirely satisfac-

MAN.

In the Fifth Round Sullivan Had

ed-Fitzsim ons Counted Him Out
i'm Fifteen Rounds.
Louisville, Feb 22.-Terry McGovern
defeated Dave Sullivan tonight in the
arena of the Southern Athletic Club
after fifteen rounds Of as desperate
fighting as was ever seen in any ring.
From the first tap of the gong until
the end it was slam, bang, hammer
and tongs, nearly every second, both
men working away with all the en-
ergy they possessed.
There has seldom been seen a bat
tie where the issue was more in doubt.
In one round it would be Sullivan,
and in the next McGovern. Then Sui
Ivan would come strong again and
even things up once more.
McGovern. knowing that the fight
as fighter, was after his man every
second. In the majority Of the rounds
he was on the aggressive, and Sulli-
van was forced to do far more de-
fensive work than his opponent. He
put UP a wonderful fight however, was
game to the core and lost the fight
more through blunder of his own
than because he was knocked out.
When the finish came, however, he
was groggy and going fast. The
chances are that he would not have
lasted more rounds, even had he risen
to his feet before Fitzsimmons called
ten.
In the fifth round Sullivan was at
his best. He forced the fighting, espe-
cially in the last half. and had McGov-
ern plainly going. The latter walked
in very unsteady fashion as he went
to his corner and nothing but his
splendid recuperative power enabled
him to come out in shape for the sixth
round. He came out strong, however,
and although there were times when
Sullivan seemed about to turn the tide
his way again, from that time on Nc
Govern kept steadily but very slowly
getting the upper hand.
He fought forward and Sullivan was
gradually but surely going backward.
Sullivan was badly punished, his left
ear being split open, his lips cracked.
his nose well pounded up and his right
eye partly closed. The latter happened
early in the fight and McGovern paid
particular attention to it throughout.
