AFFECT AND HUMILIATING
APOLOGY TO PUBLIC

The public is invited to a considera-
ton of the following retractlon of
charges made by the other publica-
uon against Dr. Carl d. Fisher, secre-
tary OF the Mesa County Industrial
& Fruit Fair association.
As this is only another apology
added TO the long list made by the
editors OF that paper, the public win
not be greatly surprised.
irresponsible assertion and innu-
endo seems to be the stock in trade
of that publication, with which the
public is generally familiar:
Grand Junction, Colo.
November. >, 1905.
To Whom 1t May Concern
II having appeared, from care
ful examination into the affairs OF
The Mesa County Industrial & Fruit
Fair association, that the statements
which have from time to time dur
ing the month of October and to date
appeared in the columns OF the Daily
News. rejecting directly or indirectly
upon the affairs and MANAGEMENT OF
the above association, so far as atfect-
ing the name. reputation and integ-
ritv of the secretary, c. d. Fisher,
we're published prematurely by the
undersigned in the columns of the
Dally News. without definite knowl-
edge on our part. and before a compe-
tent examination had been made that
would warrant said publications.
We therefore think that this public
apology is due Dr.. C. D. Fisher and
we do make it. with no hesitation OF
mental reservation on our part, fully
retracting the damaging and uncalled.
for attacks.

The full extent of the terrible worl,

and wounded. The massacre and the
numbering continued all night and

bodies still strew the streets and

were strangled and hacked to pieces
by the heudish mubs ion the streets
but it was not alone in Odessa that
the massacre OF the Jews was carried
on.
As IL by prcconoerted signal the
work of slaughter and spoilatiou was
carried on all over Russia The mas
sacre of the Jews was barbarous.
They We're hunted down in the streets
and killed outright while their homes
were given over TO pillage and the
muhs shouted that they would not
leave a Jew alive. The CossaCks are
said TO have lost over a hundred men
by bombs and shots from the win

The Auditorium was filled last

The performance was pleasing
throughout and every feature was
heartily applauded by the satisfied
audience
There is not much to be said in
particular regarding the Hayarly.
minstrels, it is like all the other first-
class minstrel shows, same general

special features and a one act farce
as a curtain ringer. There was no
departure from this long established
minstrel custom last night
The watermelon setting for Haver-
ly IS first part make "A very pretty
stage picture. There were twenty
men on the stage when the curtain
arose and four more came in later,
not as large an aggregation of singers
and musicians as Haverly had in the
old days by no means. However the
chorus was strong and he soluists
all had good voices. The gentle
men were handsomely dressed, a fine
looking set of men. Fred Russell
and Billy Beard are the two leading
comedians and they are all right
Russell's quiet droll, and sleepy man
ner makes him popular with the aud
fence while Billy Beard with his
prosecuted whining air brings him
just as many plaudits
The song hits Of the evening were.
"Mamma's Boy, Nobody" Whose

Marion and Pearl Rcrobatic and

good. They are a great team.

one of the best ever seen in Grand
Junction. He performed many
original feats. startling and thrill
ing. The feature was considered by
many the best of the entertainment
Fred Russell in his monolocue or
study in black and white kept the
crowd laughing from start to finish
The closing piece, Moonlight in
Dixie" was very poor, owing to the
fact that the necessary scenic EN-
belishments were not utilized
Haverly has visited Grand June

draw a big crowd as he always carries
q good show.
