Rocky Ford enterprise., 1902-08-08

Mrs. III. S. Carody a few days since
received letter from Mrs. D. w. Burt
conveying tho sad information Of tho
death Of her husband on Sunday. July 81.
at Crockett. ToSaa. his death occurring
llst SIX weeks after tho daughter. Ada.
passed away.
Mr.. Bert will bo rsmeYborod by all Of
our older settlers as ono Of tho pioneer
preachers Of tho Rocky Ford country. Il
was through his efforts that tho present
church ~ss orRsnizcd. No was tho Hts;
pastor. and for a ,ims meetings waro hold
in store rooms In various parts Of tho
town. Later a tabernacle was procured.
After using that for ;imo tho present
crodi;abla church was built.
Mr.. Bur; was very active in promoting
tho interests Of tho church. and no; only
In the pulpi, bu; in mechanical work on
tho church building. He was an excel
lont preacher and his services for tho
N. e. Church Of Rocky Ford are romon-
bored with pleasure and gratitude by
many Of tho original membership. Mrs.
Burt and the boroayed family will have
tho sympathy Of many Rocky Ford
friends

Rocky rord's dood Name Threatened.

Unless tho Fair authorities and Wstor-
melon Day management, take some steps
TO prevent an increase Of prices during
tho Fair tho attendance at our great fall
festival is likely TO bp diminished. Com
plants como to tho Enterprise that during
tho Fair tho restaurants and livery
stables advance tho prices over tho rogu-
lar charges. Restaurants which ordinar-
ily charge rs eonts have somo years put
up the price to SO cents during tho Fair.
Livery stables have made d similar in
crease Of prices for boarding horses. This
is all wrong and ,onds to bring Rocky
Ford gatherings into disropute. The
charge Of SO cents to got into tho Fair
grounds last Friday and Saturday is also
commented on adversely. although tho
fact that an admission foe would be
charged to 500 the sports Of tho Athletic
Club was fairly advertised.
In making arrangements for Water
melon Day this year tho management
should take such pledges from restaurants
and livery stables as will enable them to
announce that the usual charges will
prevail. Tho good name Of the town and
the continued popularity Of tho Fair do
mands this.

Boys Strange Disappearance.

Some ton days ago boy aged abou;
IL came TO tho ranch o. lanihis Todd
at Swins and asked TO stay all night,
Ho gave his name as Frank Matthews
and said ho was from Tracey. Iowa: that
he had spon, tho past winter in Pueblo
and later had boon a, Ncpos,a. He was
somowha, lamo from tho kick Of horse
He stayed with Mr.. Todd several days
and Thursday was sont with COW to tho
river TO wa;or. He did not return and in
tho afternoon Mr.. Todd hunted diligently
for him but without success. As tho boy
had talked despondon,ly. as Il the world
had no attractions for him. |, was thought
that he might have drowned himself 1t
is hardly probable that he went on his
travels as his better clothes were left at
Mr.. Todd's. Tho mystery Of the boys
disappearance needs unrayolling.

A Tough Item.

Tho Nasaio Indians have como. dono
their work well and returned to their
reservation. Nevertheless an echo OF
their industrial visi, to Rocky Ford was
heard on our streets Saturday evening.
Oscar Shine was a witness in tho case
sgains; Hansboro for selling whissoy To
tho Indians. Emil Chaser. known as
Dutch" rounder for Hansboro's sa-
loon. took oaonsa a, any interference with

Coffee r,ndc with a Traction Engine

Chas. Roekor was appointed coffee
maker for the Old Settlers Reunion be-
cause Of his wol-earned reputation in
that particular line Of cookery. He first
gained fame as a eoffeo-maser twelve
years ago when the Watermelon Day
crowd was not SO large as in those days.
and tho committee arranged with mr.
Reeker to furnish meals to all at 10
cents. 1t took Wholesale cooking to feed
the people. but tho Job was well done.
Adjacent to the tables in the Water
melon Day grove last Saturday was to
be seen Mark Denson's traction engine in
charge Of Frank Gilmore. A pipe from
the boiler led to barrel in which tho
coffee was made by steam-the best
known process. Three 50-gallon barrels
of coffee were required to go with the
barbeeued meats and the universal YER
dict was that the coffee was OF high
grade. A mixed Mocha and Java of the
25 cents per pound quality was used and
the result the eminent satisfaction Of the
public justified the wisdom OF Mr.. Reek-
ers selection for that contract.
Here is a suggestion for the Watermelon
Day committee: Good coffee is appre-
oiated by large majority of people. On
Watermelon Day thousand or more of
our visitors bring their lunch baskets and
take the noon-day meal picnic style in
the grove. Those in charge Of the melon
pile gladly furnish melons and canta-
loupes to go with the dinner, and why not
add coffee for all who wish it. No one
thing would add more popularity to this
already popular fall festival than the an
nouneement that choice article of oof-
fee would be furnished free on that day
to all who picniced in the grove. Try
this once.
