DEATHS
Baxter,

Friday night the Rev. Alfred Bax-
ter died in his bed, his passing away
being as quiet and peaceful as a sleep.
The news of his death Saturday morn
ing was received by citizens with sor-
row, for Mr.. Baxter was man who
for over thirty years had been highly
esteemed. The funeral was held
Sunday afternoon from the residence
of his son Frank, and was largely at
tended and the remains wele inferred
in Linn Grove.
Alfred Baxter was born In 1925 at
Applletreewick, West Riding, York
shire, England. From boyhood his
tastes were quite literary and after
passing through the schools he at
tended the Westminster college,
London, from which he was grad
uated in 1854. He was appointed
principal of the British and foreign
school at Stratford-on Avon, a posi-
tion he held for some years, but i'll
health forced him to reIinquish he
post and on the advice of his physi-
clan he left his native home in
search of health. He came to Rich
mond, Ind. in 1866 and in 1870 lie
removed to Colorado, coming to
Greeley with his family on May g..
Being minister OF the Presbyterian
church, he held an open air service
en- the prairie the fist Sunday after
his arrival and preached the first
religious sermon heard in this city.
He was a fine classical scholar and
read his bible in Greek, Latin or
Hebrew, as easily as he could read
his mother tongue. He was also a
fl! e mathematician, being well up
in the higher branches of that study.
For years he devoted his time at
farming with his sons, occasionally
doing a little in the civil engineer
ing line. He was good neig hbor and
an honorable man in all his dealings
and although he was most rigid and
strict in the observance of his faith,
he had the good will and friendship
of the cosmopolte population that
formed the nucleus Of Union colony,
But four immediate members of
deceased's family sdrvive him, his
second wife and three children by
his first wife: Mrs. Ruthyen of Den
yer and A. Jackman and Frank Bax-
tie, of this city.

KING COAL
FAMINE OF THE ARTICLE
SEEMS IMMINENT.
Strike of Coal Miners All Over
State Is Already Felt in
Greeley.-The City's
Supply.

The strike Of the coal miners of
Colorado, Wyoming, New Mexico and
Utah, which has been threatened for
some time, if the mine owners and
operators did not accede to the de-
mands Of the miners for more pay
and shorter working days, was called
Monday morning. Already Greeley
is beginning to feel the effects of
the strike, although this is nothing
to what has been promised by the
% liners, who claim they can and will
shut off the supply completely in
order to gain their points. The
operators, on the other hand, claim
that they will be able to operate their
mines with other men and even
should the mines be tied up, they
have winters supply Of coal on
hand. Should the miners make good
their claim, this state is up against
the worst coal famine in its history.
A hurried investigation of the con-
dltions in Greeley shows this city
with supply sufficient, perhaps, to
last from three to four weeks, except
in some Individual cases. Then there
are also some individuals who have
already laid in full winters supply,
1t is gratifying to note that the sup
ply at the city water works will last
from four to SIX weeks, the bins
now containing about 80 tons.
The city schools are we'll supplied
and can probably run for month
without replenishng the bins. The
Norma! school has coal enough on
hand to last three weeks Business
blocks are most of them in about TIE
same condition. The Greeley Sugar
company, while it has IA large supply
on hand, has not enough to last
Through the campaign, and unless
more can be secured will be obliged
to shut down long before the beets
are all run.
The coal dealers of the city have
but scant supply on hand, and this
is being harbored carefully, not more
than one ton being allowed each
applicant for coal. 1t is profitable
that before the week is over that
this will be Cut down to one half ton.
Some of the dealers are unable to FIJI
orders at all.
The rush at the offices of coal
dealers Monday morning looked like
a bargain sale. Customers were
shaking their money at the dealer
demanding to be waited upon at
once, but few OF them could he ac-
be had.
For some time the dealers have
been urging their customers 10 lay in
their coal supply early, as q strike
was almost sure to come. In manv
cases they were laughed at. as il was
believed to be only sale argument
Now that the promised trouble has
become reality the dealers are in
many cases being blamed foI not hav.
ing larger supply on hand.
With an economical use Of the
article, Greeley is in much better
shape to meet coal famine in the
state than most places. Some few
cal loads of coal will he received from
time TO time to help out in the most
needy places Then there are a few
independent mines within driving
distance of the town that will help
out. So, taking it all in all, there
is no need of the people here feeling
pannicky over the situation, although
the price may advance. .considera' ly.
