A large number of people was at
the new Denver and Rio Grande
station to meet the first train that
stopped there Wednesday afternoon.
An informal inspection of the new
quarters was made and everybody
was much pleased with everything
pertaining to it. Glenwood can boast
of having the finest depot in the
state of Colorado owned by any one
road and the best one outside of the
two union depots at Denver and Pueb-

as well as in appearance it has no
equal in the state. The local force
has moved in and is jubilant over the
change from an ancient and worn to
a modern, well lighted and convenient

Thos. MCNutt Dies Suddenly

Thomas McNutt, a special agent
in the eunploy of the United States
General Land office, died suddenly
Tuesday morning, at his room in
the Caldwell house
That he was dead was not dis
covered until about five O. CLOCK in the
afternoon when his son, Harry who
had just come in from a camping trip
to Noname creek, entered the room
and found his father dead body ly-
ing upon the bed. Mr.. McNutt arose
as usual at about s o'clock and went
out He made Doctor Clark call
as he had not been feeling well for
a couple Of days and had eaten almost
nothing since Sunday morning, al
though no serious difficulty was sus-
pected. AT 10 o clock he returned to
his room and soon after groans were
heard in the room which ceased later
and those in the house believed he
was asleep.
The cause of death, according to
the physicians who were called, was
heart failure, although the deceased
had never had any difficulty of this
nature before. He has always been
a strong, robust man. Last week he
went to Leadville and remained there
several days and it is believed that
the altitude might have been con-
tributing cause of his death.
He leaves wife and ten children
all of whom are living and with two
exceptions their home is in Madison,
Indiana where the remains have been
sent for interment. Mr.. McNutt was
about 80 years of age, and he came to
Glenwood last December, making his
headquarters here.

BASEBALL SATURDAY.

Called of.

rangements, the baseball game between

Friday afternoon has been called of.
Frank Leach, manager of athletics at
Washburn made this announcement
this afternoon.
On Saturday Washburn viii meet the
Emporia State normal for the second
contest between the two this year, the
first one of which was won by the EN-
porians. This promises to be a battle
royal Art Griggs and Mehl will be in
the points for Washburn and that alone
will mean a good deal for the local col
legians. The game in reality means the
cham mpionship of the state, no other
school being able to successfully COM
pete with either Washburn or the Nor
NAL
Manager Leach has had hard luck
with his schedule. losing four games in
the last week. Missouri university and
Warrensburg normal cancelled dates
at their home towns, and Haskell and
the College of Emporla have backed
out of enga gements to play here That
hits the financial side of the Washburn
athletic department pretty hard and a
big turnout viii have to be present at
Saturdays game to help the ball along
The game is worth going to see and
will probably be the best college con-
test of the season

STAND BY WEBSTER.
Nebraska Republicans Endorse Fa-
vorite Son for Vice Presidency.

Lincoln, Neb., May 19.-The Repub-
lican state convention nominated the
following:
Governor, John NJ. Mickey of Polk
county.
Lieutenant governor. Edmund C.
McGillon.
Secretary of state. A. Galus.
Treasurer, Peter Mortensen.
Attorney general Norris Brown.
Auditor, N E. Searle,
Land commissioners IL H. Eaton
superintendent Of schools, j. L. Nc
Brien.
Delegates at large to the national
convention. H. c. Bronze. G. E. Demp-
ster. J. c. Piper and H. L. Lehang.
Elmer J. Burkett was named as the
partys choice for United States sen
ator. The platform, after asserting its
faith in the principles of the last ma
tional platform, declares for the nom
inatfon of President Roosevelt and
praises his administration. The can
didacy of John L: Webster of Nebraska
for vice president is endorsed. On the
tariff and currency questions the plat
form saws: I'VE declare our belief in
a protective tariff, a fundamental party
doctrine that has largely contributed
to the nations growth and greatness.
We adhere to the principle and we re-
fuse to become frightened at the
schedules of a law, the practical appli-
cation of which during the past seven
years has brought to the country such
marvellous development and pnenom-
enal prosperity.
THE efficacy of a gold standard es-
tablished by the party proved by the
unquestionable soundness of all our
currency and it's sufficient abundance
to meet all demand of vastly in
creased trade
Satisfaction over the requirement Of
the Panama canal property is express
ed and the work of the last congress in
providing for irrigation systems in
western States is heartily praised.

TOPEKA WOMEN FUSS
Mrs. Johnston and Mrs. Garvey Fail
Out in st. Louis.

st. Louis. Mo. May 19.-Quite live
~ furry has blown up in connection
with the selection of directors for
the National Federation of WOmen's
Clubs. Kansas for two years has held
one Of the five places on the board
in Mrs. James Humphrey, of Junction
City, and there is widespread feeling
that now the sunhower state should
give some of the other states a
chance.
Nevertheless. Kansas has two wo-
men who have been ambitious and
both are of Topeka-Mrs- w A John
ston and Mrs H. o. Garvey- These
two almost became belligerent in a
corridor Of the Festival hall Mrs
Johnston finally said to Mrs. Garvey
that she would withdraw. Mrs. Gar
vey said: Il suppose I should thank
you, but I will not you ought to have
withdrawn long ago.
The Kansas delegates are holding
a meeting this afternoon and hope to
persuade Mrs. Garvey to withdraw
also. The Kansas delegates outside Of
Topeka DO not like the situation and
dislike the reputation Kansas is gain
ing Of not knowing when to quit ask
ing for national offices.
