an Interpreter arrived in automobile at
Ger0ne's famous studio situated in a large
house at MontInartre, nearly opposite the
Moulin Rouge. MT. Schwab understands
French perfectly. although ne does not speak

sculptor that he was building a house in New
York and that he had intrusted il to a French
architect, NJ. Hebert, cousin OF the well known
painter and formerly director of the French
Art School at Rome. Mr.. Schwab stated that
he wanted Ger6ne 10 execute two large bronze
statutes that would symbolic in the most
striking manner MT Schwab's life and destiny.
After a rapid exchange OF ideas it was decided
that this could be best done by statues of

HANNA CLAIMS PAID.
Relatives of Forty Finn, Twelve Itali-
ans, Twenty-Three colored and Four
White Miners Accept Offer and Re-
ceive Money

Up to the present time John r.
Manchester, general claim agent
of the Union Pacific, and w. G.
Hussey, the Denver agent, have
settled with the heirs of 70 of the
victims of the Hanna mine.
This includes 40 Finn claims,
II Italians, % colored, and four
white Americans as follows:
Seventeen widows living in
FINLAND.
Eleven widows living at Hanna.
Relatives of eight single men
living in FINLAND.
Relatives of four Films living
at Hanna.
OF the twelve Italians the heirs
of nine live in this country and
three in Italy.
The heirs of the white and col
ored men all live in Hanna with
few exceptions.
The total amount of money
paid to these people by the COM
pany will aggregate about $4,000.
Considering that they had all
their provisions for several weeks
free, and house rent up to the
time the settlement was made, the
amounts received by those living
at Hanna has been considerably
more than at first appears.
Several more of the heirs of the
dead miners will be in Rawlins
next week to accept the offer of
the company. Most of the for
eigners will return to their native
lands as soon as arrangements
can be made, some of them the
first of the month.-Rawlins Re

Jack Archer skips the Country and

Of &, ooo-A Receiver Appointed.

Jack Archer, the owner of the
Elk Horn saw mill, left the coun-
try last week and the mill, and
other property belonging to him,
is in the hands of a receiver. The
mill is situated about four miles
from the Ferris-H aggarty mine,
and has been supplying the mine
and the town of Dillon with lum-
Der and every one supposed that
Jack had a good thing and was
making money. To those on the
inside it was apparent that he was
quite heavily involved.
The creditors are as follows: j
W. Cuff, S1,70O; Cosgritf Bros.
Co, 1927; Baker, Brenner x Nc
Anally, 1925. There are other
small debts scattered around that
will probably bring the total
amount of Indebtedness up 10

Inns last week and secured the
appointment of "A receiver for the
property from the District Court

Killed a Bear With a 90 Rife.

Frank Robinson, one of the
rauchmen of the Owen country,
had a real wild west experience
one night the first of the week.
1t was a stormy night, the wind
was singing a m%ournful lullaby
as it surged through the pine
trees about the Robinson home,
and the head of the household
was sitting by a cracking fire in
side enjoying tho papers and mag
azines that had just been brought
from the postoftice. Mrs. Robin
o is the owner of a few pet
lambs which were given her from
a neighbours Hook, and as these
had been reared as true pets they
we're accustomed to find shelter at
night near the home. Suddenly
there was a commotion outside, a
frightened bleating came from
the lambs, and thinking a neigh
boris dog had probably wandered
that way and was looking for a
choice mutton chop, Mr.. Robin
son hastily jerked his six-shooter
out of its scabbard and started
around the house on a run. "A
real live black bear just at that
moment happened to be making
the circuit around the house but
was going in an opposite direc
ton. At the first corner-well,
there was an automobear collision
with accent on the bear. 1t was
hard to tell which WAS given the
greater surprise, or which was
the worst-hold on, of COURSE nei-

their Workmanship very rapidly

Corporal Bradford, ITO out of a
possible $50, at 200, 300 and 500
yard ranges. The next scores
were Sergt. Dyer, los; Sergt.
Woods, l0l; aud Private McPhail,

above down to 40 and 30.
Co. q has a number of expert

with the guns is the main reason
for the scores not standing higher
than they do. With a little more
