iii Stuffed Up

That's the condition of many sufferers
from catarrh, especially in the morning.
Great difficulty is experienced in clear
ing. the head and throat.
No wonder catarrh causes headache,
impairs the taste, smell and hearing,
pollutes the breath, deranges the stom-
ach and affects the appetite.
To cure catarrh, treatment must be

BREAKS INTO JAIL.
A Mysterious Man Smashes Plate
Glass Window.

A man of German descent, about as
years of age deliberately threw stone
into the plate glass front of George
Stephan's law Office Wednesday after
noon, about O'Clock. While the rock
did not go through into the Office it
shattered the glass badly. The dam
age incurred is about $50. The man
was arrested by Lee Tanner, acting
marshal and placed in the city Jail
He came here some time ago from
Gunnison- county, so he claims. Last
week ne went to the houe of E. NJ
Gets, county commissioner, and told
him that he had come to stay, and that
he had to take care of him, but as he
did not show family resemblance Mr..
Gets objected. Afterwards he went
to Mayor w. B. Stockham in the same
manner and finally to County Attorney
Stephan. He told the attorney that he
was bothered with rheumatism and
wanted the county to feed and take
care of him. He was told that he was
not county subject, after which he
endeavored to induce Sheriff Hunt to
keep him in Jail.
This being refused he camo down the
street Wednesday afternoon and broke
the plate glass window in an attempt
to break in the county Jail. However.
he failed in this and was put in the city
cooler" and the marshal is now TAX
ing his meals to him on the European
plan.
He says that he has no people and no
home and lives wherever he happens TO
be and that the county owes him Ev-
ing and that he is going to have it.

An Important Movement.

A movement of more than usual i'm
portance to the citizens of the state has
been undertaken by the State Forestry
Association in the direction of securing
through appropriate legislation De-
partment of Forestry.
To this end request was presented
by the Association to both of the lead
ing political parties at their state con-
ventions last month asking plank in
their platforms favoring such legisla-
ton. AS a result. the Republicans
adopted the following:
I'VE earnestly recommend necessary
legislation to provide for department
of forestry, whose province shall be to
prevent profiigate waste of timber. and
by so doing. conserve the water supply
of the state
And the Democrats this:
1--WE earnestly recommend such leg
islation under the state constitution as
shall provide for department of for
estry and the enactment of such laws
as may be necessary to enable it to
make our forests more permanent and
useful"
Thus the way is open for measure
providing for the permanent care and
improvement of our forests and the
enforcement of the forestry laws.
Such department run on rational
lines would be of inestimable value to
state and should meet with the approx
al and support of all good citizens.

The New Steam Laundry.

The new steam laundry recently en-
stalled here by H. H. Whipple & Son.
is now in full operation. W. A. Lowrie
arrived here from Denver Wednesday
to take charge of the laundry depart
ment. He has had IL years experience
in the business and promises that as
soon as everything gets in good running
order, that big amount of work can
be turned out and that absolutely first
class work will be done in every respect.
The machinery is all new and the very
latest appliances which will enable
Delta people to secure better work
than they have heretofore been sending
out for. Mr.. Lawrie says that they
will soon be able to turn out laundry
the following day after being taken in.
Delta people should appreciate the new
institution and give it their patronage
for it is strictly up-to-date and as clean
as parlor.

Is Il Our Apple?

Some time since Sante Fe freight
agent was here and secured an apple of
the Wolf River variety measuring l7i4
inches in circumference. The apple
he exhibited was grown in Black Canon
about two miles above the state bridge
and ten miles above Delta. He stated
that he intended to send the apple to
the. Worlds fair at st. Louis. 1t is
now claimed that an apple of the same
measurements at the fair is the largest
in the world. Now is this our apple.
The size tallies exactly, ba. the apple
which was sent from here weighed
thirty-two ounces, Ia ounces more
than the Worlds fair apple, but it
might have been reduced to Soi4 ounces
by shrinkage. II it is not ours it is
not the largest in weight by an ounce
and three quarters.
