Rio Grande Wreck.

Rio Grande train No. s, leaving Dem
yer al 8 o'clock Sunday morning struck
a rock slide three miles east Of Palisade.
Engineer George Stewart and his hre-
man. w. A. Woods. were killed.
The eng ne struck the slide with such
force that it was swervsd TO the eide ard
embedded in the mountain side. The
mail car was thrown into the Grand river
and is submerged in the water. The
train consisted Of two Pullman cars, two
day coaches. two baggage cars and tine
mail car. The baggage cars were badly
telescoped. but the coaches and seepeis
stayed on the track and the passe ngers
escaped with slight shaking up.
The accident occurred on q curve.
Owing to this part Of the Rio Grande
Junction road being very DANGEROUS, u
ckwalker is engaged in constantly
walking up and down the track. He had
just passed the spot and gotten to the
Tar end OF bis beat when the accident
occurred. The rocks had been loose ned
by the rain during the day and the slide
came down after the walker had psssed.
in this viciuiiy during the past two
years no less than half dozen serious
wrecks have occurred.

RATHER LUDIcROUS.

AT present the councilman's
position in this city is not an envi-
able one. When two or more of
these gentlemen get together, if for
no other purpose than to have a
social smoke, a third party sudden
ly dropsi in on them with enough
paper to print his local sheet on
and looking as wise as school
house owl, proceeds to take notes.
When one happens to say few
words more than another or his
"head-piece" thinks this to be the
case, with an air of superiority he
pounces on his little roll with the
idea that he is moulding public
opinion.

No man Of real influence in Ameri-

Delta's Need of a New
School Building.

The following composition was written
by one OF the members OF The senior
class Of the high school and was adjudged
the best one out OF three:
The culture Of town is often judged
by the appearance Of it's educational
institutions. Enterprising men with
families always desire TO reside 10 town
or city where the educational advantages
are good.
school house, whose exterior is shabby
and whose surroundings are unsightly,
is usual, judged by strangers to be a
town OF unreHned people with little in
terest in education. but a town With q
first class modern school building. whose
appearance is pleasing to the eys. has in
this, the best OF Recommendations In the
estimation OF strangers.
Delta is in great need OF modern
school building. Her present school
house. poorly planned for large school,
is one Of the greatest drawbacks to our
town. In comparing the valuation
Of our sch"ol property with that OF
neig boring towns we are forced to &C
knowledge that we are far behind. Tie
school property at Gunnison is valued
at 's24.OO0, OF tdontrose at sl9,778, OF
Grand Junction. at s74O0O. while Delta .
town property 10 probably worth $500.
Gunnison' school population is 426, Mon
trose COL, Grand Junction 1904. Delta. 76l
The bonded Indebtedness Of the Gunpi-
son school district is s29. 600. Of Montrose,
1892. OF Grand Junction $4,000 and Of
Delta $1,000.
Our school building is not large enough
to accommodate the number OF pupils.
During most OF the year every room is
so crowded that teachers and pupils work
at disadvantage. A primary grade
during the last two years has had to be
taught in dingy. poorly ventilated hall
ground is on the street or i'll the lot used
by Hunt Co. for storing farm imple
ments. These children lack the neces-
sary environment to make them interest
ed in school work and in consequence
cannot accomplish the best good.
Our laboratory is too small and too
poorly equipped FOR the science students
to derive the greatest benefits from their
studies There should be separate
room Tor laboratory. At present one
little room serves as laboratory. recita-
tioD room and store room. The high
school should have another recitation
room aud library room and large
assembly room for the schools would
be a great convenience.
Our heating appliances are inaufiici.
ent and some Of the rooms are poorly
ventilated. the halls are narrow and
poorly arranged for marching.
Our school ground is such that it
offends the eye Of every observer.
Either its location should be changed
or different soil should be hauled
upon IL.
