The coal minel's strike in the
Eastern states is becoming a very
serious affair Winter is coming
IN and the price OF coal is now
tlree times the ordinary price and
unless the strike is settled the
shortage will be still greater and
the price still higher. Thousands
Of families viii suffer from cold
this winter because Of the inability
to purchase fuel. A unique COM
maat on the situation is made by
the Saturday Evening Post when
it says that the coal famine will
effect the matrimonial market.
The fathers will not allow the fire
to burn in the p0rlor at any and
all times OF night and further that
many young men will shrink from
the possibility OF having to foot
the coal bills at $40 per ton should
they carry out their matrimonial
intentions.

couple OF shots at her liege lord
and husband. Don Bosley. AS is
usually the case where woman is
located at the business Of the gun,
no damage was done. Under

the riot, and had to administer
several vigorous applications of .
wet towel to the mother .in-law in
the case, before bringing her
around to her normal condition.
She tainted at the first shot. The
husband refused TO prosecute and
no arrests were made, claiming
that his wife had no intention of

One of the grandest avocations
is the art Of making people happy.
There are certain favored spirits to
whom kind and discriminating
providence allots genius Tor this
particular. mission. Few, it is
safe to say, have been more favor
ed in this respect than AL. g.
Field, the famous minstrel, whose
greater minstrels will open the
season at the La Junta Theatre,
Thursday, February 10th.
This magnificent company is the
largest and most perfect organiza-
ton OF the kind and has won dis
tinction and fame, and can always
be counted upon presenting an en-
tertainment that is new, with never
anything to offend. Each sue
ceeding season the company is
headed by its proprietor and
guiding spirit, AL. G. Field. Mr..
Field is gentleman in character,
q comedian Of abiiity-a man Of
ideas-with a vision, the courage
and the mental acuteness for revolt
u,ionizing and reforming form Of
amusement that but for his efforts
might have been lost in medioc-
rity.
Aside from his position as the
peer of minstrel managers, Mr..
Field is also prince.of good fell
lows. All over the United States
his amiability and good fellowship
is a household word. Like the
busy bee which extracts honey
from the roses only to distribute
the sweetness for the delight of
mankind. Mr.. Field extracts honey
from the refinement of song, jest,
melody, humor' and novelty, to
distribute it by his splendid GALAXY
of minstrel stars to the vast audi
ences who greet them nightly.

a beautiful canopy OF roses and
orange blossoms, the contracting
parties we're pronounced man and

Ford, officiating, and the ring
ceremony being used. The bride
was attired in cream albatross,
trimmed with silk and lace, a
wreath OF orange blossoms adorn
ing her brow, and the groom in
convential black. The brides
maids were Miss Mary Warren
and Miss Ella Morris, while the
groom was attended by Messrs.
Eugene and Bert Shelton, brothers
of the bride.
Immediately after the ceremony
the bridal party led the way to the
dining room, where several tables
fairly groaned under the loads Of
viands prepared by skillful hands.
While the dinner was in progress
the Woodman of the World band,
of Rocky Ford, arrived and were
very generous with their music
during the remainder of the after
noon.
The bride is the eldest daughter
