Audubon county, August 81, 1908,
at the ripe old aye Of IS years, S

til 1899 when he sold his farm and
purchased 100 acre tract in Shar-
on township, where he resided I'M
til his death. To them were born
six children. who were all present
and received the parental blessing
and the final leave taking which
leaves sad hearts to mourn. All
the children reside in this county
but one and are Mrs. S. Smith. DR..

w. Wolf, H. p. Lauritzen who re-
sides at the parental home and
Mrs. A. Hess of Shelby county. He
had been aiIing for about two years
and his death was not unexpected.
He was man who had many
friends and during a long life of
usefulness his name was above re-
husband and an indulgent father,
always planning and working for
the welfare of those he held most
dear. Coming here in the early hist
DRY of the county, he and his below
ed wife and helpmate suffered
many hardships of pioneer life
which were over come one by one,
until long before the parting came
he had secured competence which
enabled them to live in ease and af-
fluence.
The funeral services we're from
the house conducted by Rev. Weise-
man, assisted by Rev. Johansen. A
large concourse of his long time
friends and sympathizing neigh
bors followed the remains to the
Bowman Grove cemetery In Shelby

until the last great day. The grief
stricken widow and Borrowing
children have the deep sympathy Of
the entire community in this. their
severe, affection.

Hotels and Boarding Houses {

The eastern man who has never

They are palaces; splendidly
furnished, comfortab BILE, convenient
ly arranged, and managed with the
one idea of satisfying guests. If
Colorado had no other attractions
than it's hotels, it would be worth
visiting. But it has other attrac,
tions-the purest air, the bluest sky,
and the most brilliant sunshine in
the world. A hundred thousand PEG.
pie go there every summer. Not all
of them stay at high-priced hotels.

Richards Case to Be Called.

Des Moines, Aug. Nv. A. Rich
ards of this city will go to Indianola
next month to stand trial on the
charge of completely in the Sullivan
robbery at Hamilton. Richards has
been living quietly since his return
from Mexico and he and his friends
are confident that the state will be
unable to convict him OF the crime,
though Judge Gamble, in pronouncing
sentence on Beard, declared that Rich
ards was more guilty OF the crime. 1t
Is regarded as probable that Richards
will demand change Of venue or con-
tinuance because Of alleged prejudice
on the part OF the court. There has
been nothing new developed in the
case since Beard went to prison.
There have been rumars Of his proba-
BILE death and that he would tell all
he knows about the case, but these
are not credited.
