will not only rourish particular

every other part. Yet, however
good your food may be, Its nutri-

PAGE from History.

A page will be torn from history
and re.enacted at Slstersville. Fri.
day, July 81, when Cole Younger
and Frank James, two heroes of
war time exploits, and afterward
fugitives from bands of avengers,
appear with the big Wild West
Show.
The title of this attraction IS
"The Cole Younger and Frank
James and the suggestion of mag
nitude In the name Is said to be
fully justified by realization. The
show Is carried about the country
In thirty three cars. 1t has 600
head of trained horses, two big
herds of bufaloes,-in fact the
largest herds of American bison In
existence. More than 500 per.
formers, horsenen, Indians and
others are used In the exhibitions.
The daily program consists of
feats OF riding, Workmanship, lasso-
ing, and other practices of the den
liens of the frontiers. When Cole
Younger and Frank James were
leaders of Quantrell's band OF raid
ers they lived In conditions that
correspond to those under which
the cowboys of Texas lived up to
few years ago.
The customs of exciting frontier
life are reproduced faithfully at
each exhibition. Cowboys and
cowgirls perform a quadrille on
horseback. Cossack soldiers trained
to all the tricks of Craftsmanship on
the Russian plates give exhibitions
of their daring and skill. Mexican
vanqueros rope wild steers and dis
play their dexterity In marvellous
manner. Texas cowboys lasso
uutamed mustang ponies and ride
"bucking bronchos." Bands of
Indians give ghost, snake and sun
dances, and make mimic attacks on
stage coaches and settlers cabins.
The show has several hundred
Sioux Indians that are permitted
by the government TO accompany
1t about the country and are under
contract for exhibitions In Europe
next year.
Frank James appears In the
arena at each exhibition. Cole
Younger has an equally prominent
part In the exhibitions, A cowboy
band of fifty pieces furnishes music.

DON'T BE DECEIVED.

Denver merchants have succeeded
in securing excursion rates from the
railroads on certain dates for the pur-
pose OF inducing people within rad
ius of couple of hundred miles OF
Denver to come and do all their trad
ing there. While this is perfectly
legitimate and offers good chance
for people to make an Inexpensive
trip to the capital-so far as the rail-
road fare is concerned-it would be
anything but good policy for people
to take advantage of the opportunity.
The whole scheme would eventually
tend to break down the independence
Of the smaller merchants from the
department stores of the big cities.
People should bear.. in mind that the
Denver stores are not going. to carry
them on their books for half year
or a year 1t must be cash deal.
=
They have carefully waited until
they knew the farmer was disposing
of his crop, before they made their
'liberal Offer AS soon as people
are unable to pay cash, they will
find it necessary to return to their
local merchant.
There is absolutely no reason why
people should 90 to Denver to trade,
from city like Greeley. The mer-
chants here carry Just whatever goods
the trade of the town demands. II
people need higher class of goods
than is carried, the patrons will al
once see tendency toward this elias:
OF goods in the stocks When times
are not so good and it is necessary fOl
people to accept cheaper G lods, thf
tendency will be in that direction
1t is true that there are larger stock!
to select from IN Denver, but moi
even the largest dry goods store therl
carries near the variety of goods tina
all the stores here combined do. CT
on the excursion for good time, |
you want, but stick by your hom'
merchant. He will do more for yol
In one minute than the Denver mer
chant will in life time.

BETTER DROP 1T.

The Tribune has received a large
number Of communications the past
week, discussing the question Of Sun
day base ball pro and con. Want of
space fOrbids the use of all, hence it
would noe he fair to contributors to
print any part OF them. Now, also,
for the sake of it's readers, the Tri-
bune feels Obliged to close the matter
at this time, so far as public dis
cussion in its columns is concerned.
Both sides have been granted the
same free use Of space, and Ii is sup
posed that some of the best arguments
both against aud in favor of the ques-
tion, have been presented. The
discussion has been quief and not cal
culated to stir up bad feelings here
tofore. 1t is. however, bidding fair
to become acrimonious in nature, and
therefore the Tribune takes this oc-
casion to announce that no further
note will be taken Of communications
sent In now on subject OF so small
Importance to the welfare OF the
people.
