THE NUMBER
OF Registrations Up
To Date Amounts
Over $500

The total registration for yester-
day. according to the report of the
registration clerks, was 1867, two
thirds of this number registered be
! fore noon. When the officers closed
! yesterday afternoon there was no one
/ in line or in waiting
This morning when fhg officers
opened at nine O'Clock perhaps
hundred people were iu line. These
were quickly waited upon. All
morning the registration was rather
quiet. however, several hundred peo-
pie registered during The forenoon
hours. The rush has not been
great enough at any time during the
day to neCessitate the closing of the
doors. those coming q register being
allowed to 20 in without delay.
This morning three of the eight
clerks We're relieved from duty at
this point by official order and in
struCted to report at once to General
Land Commissioner Richards at Pro
vo. Utah. The three were Ralph 5.
Clinton, Alex Wilson and b. w. New
man. 1t is not known whether these
gentlemen will be placed ON duty
at Provo or returned to Washington.
The registration force now CON
sists of four clerks and Chief Clerk
Wahly. They will be able to handle
and people daily.
The crowd in town today is not
a large one. Not many people came
i'm on the trains last night or this
morning. a large number came in
on the noon trains
A message received by The Sentin-
lei from Colorado SPRINGS states that
hundreds of people expect to- come
over from that city Saturday to reg
l.. Er d . H... s..
the state will send large delegations
to Grand Junction within the next
few days. Many predict that the
crowds will grow larger as the end
of the registration period draws
nearer. Hundreds OF people will
wait until the last week TO come in
iu order to stay oyer until the result /
of the drawing is known. Judging
from the rate of registrations now
being made they will average about
I. 900 daily.
All the strangers in the city are
comfortably quartered and no com
plant as to III treatment on the part
OF the rOOming. boarding houses or
restaurants has ben heard, and no
body is being held mp by the business
men. Every homeseeker that comes
to the town expresses his satisfac-
ton of the splendid manner i'm which
Grand Junction is caring for the
crowds.
According to reports of people
that have arrived from Denver and
other points in the last twelve hours
various false reports are being cir
culated on the trains as they pass
through certain towns to the effect
that Grand Junction is not accom-
modating and caring for the people
in n comfortable and proper manner
Many have been advised by the part
les scattering these reports to go on
to Provo why such reports should
be circulated it is not known. That
they are false it is needless to say.
Grand Junction has accommodations
ample and comfortable, for every
man or woman who may wish to
come here The town could easily
care for three times the number OF
people that are expected to come here
to register.

New COMPANY Firmly Organized.


Some time ago The Sentinel gave
notice that articles of Incorporation
for the Paradox Mining & Milling
Company had been filed with the sec
retary of state.
Since that time The formation of
the company and the selection and
organization of its officers have been
under way.
The following officers have all been
selected and are as follows:
President, J. a. McCulloch.
Vice president and superintend-
ent, T. w. James.
Secretary and manager, A. A. Mil
Ter.
Treasurer. D. n. stone.
Atforncr, Samuel N Wheeler.
Directors. r, W, James. Paradox.
George Wright, Paradox; A. A. Mil
Ter, S. n. Wheeler and j. A. McCul-
loch of Grand Junction.
The properties of the company are
in the Paradox mountains in the La
Sal and Paradox mining districts.
There are two distinct veins, each
over mile in length. both being near
the Utah state line. The mineral is
very rich in copper and silver, and
the properties are among the most
valuable in the district.
A A. Miller made a visit to the
properties of the company two weeks
ago and is very enthusiastic over the
outlook. He visited many sections
of that district but nothing looked
better to him than the properties on
he Paradox mountains.
Already a large amount of the com
pany's stock has been subscribed,
Active operations toward developing
the properties will start at once.

Tuesday on charge of stealing two

dismissed from custody. Mr.. Focht

and industrious, and that during the
time they have worked for him he has
found them to be entirely trustworthy

that have long been enjoyed in Germany.
France, nghnd, Italy and other coun-
tries The four reasons We're the four

There were four express companies

place can be found in any country for a
great festive gathering than the Pen

nearly an acre in extent and its tiers of
balconies for the convenience of those
who prefer to look on and do not care
to dance. The building is perfectly
heated and ventilated and no matter
how disagrceabe the weather may be
outside, the guests will be thoroughly
comfortable. AT General Grants last in
