Eastern Star Party.

The members of the o. E. S. had
a jolly Halloween party at their
lodge room in the Park Place build
ing Tuesday night. The room was
darkened, and the members told
ghost stories galore. When every
body's nerves were on edge and a
proper degree of spookiness was
reached the doors nolselessly opened,
and in walked Their Ghostships as
natural as life, and did all sorts of
ghostly jigs for the spectators.
Afterwards the lights were turned
on, and the usual Halloween re-
freshments of pumpkin pie, dough-
nuts and sweet cider were served.
While the gathering was not quite
an Adamless Eden, there were ten
gentlemen and about fifty ladies
present.

Krank Is Held.

Kirk Krank, the young man
charged with shooting up Evans on
the evening of Sept. %, and inciden-
tally charged with attempting to
kill young man by the name OF
Fritz Bloomentaugh, had hearing
before Justice Willard Monday after
noon. He was held to the district
court under $500 bail, which he was
unable to furnish. krank claimed
to be an Idaho miner who had come
to Greeley to work in the potato
fields. He acted as his own attor-
ney and cross questioned witnesses.
He contended that he was too intoxi-
Gated to know what he was doing.

Department Stores.

The Denver department stores have
taken advantage of the new local
train Of the Union Pacific to urge
people of this section to come to
Denver to trade. The convenience
now of running to Denver and back
is urged as an especial reason. The
whole secret of the success of the de-
partment stores lies in keeping
eternally at it-drumming their busi-
ness into the ears of the people. If
the local business men adopt the
same methods there is no reason why
they cannot hold their own against
all the mail order houses and depart
ment stores in the country.

The Progress Club.

1t has been the custom Of the Pro-
'gress Club since its organization to
make its home by invitation with
one of its members for the club year
Therefore. by the courtesy OF Mrs.
Robie we are guests in her pleasant
home the first and third Wednes-
DAYS in each month from October to
April inclusive.
The work for the year consists OF
''Studies in the City of Florence and
the Worlds Progress. - Inc first
meeting was held Oct. 9th, with the
president, Mrs. Whitney, in the chair.
Miss Elliott, who had spent some
time the previous year in Florence,
gave as Introductory to our work, Il
most interesting description on what
she saw and heard in this city of
world wide fame, and its equally IN
teresting suburbs. This talk was
illustrated by map and pictures.
Mrs. Whitney followed with care
full and instructive report of the an
nual convention of the G. I. w. c.,
held in Denver in September. 1t
WAS full of enthusiasm and good sug-
geitions for the coming year.
The second meeting Oct. 18th,
took up the History of Florence
from its first settlement to the time
of the Medici. The wars of the
factions were noted, especially those
between the Grelfs and Ghibelines.
The absence of illustration made it
difficult to represent the life of the
people, their dress, amusements or
habitations. Engraving was un-
known and protraiture rare. This
paper was presented by Mrs. Clark.
Mrs. Wright then took up the
Guilds of Florence and to some ex-
tent those of other cities and
countries. This was in the form of
conversation and she was ably as
sisted by Mesdames Randolph, Ell
lott and Woolf. Other members
also joined in the discussion. These
guilds in a measur, e seem to have
been the progenitors of the labor
unions of today. Mention was also
made of these unions and their
prominent leaders.
This feature of the program
promises to be interesting and profit
able. The designations of Mrs.
Hogarty, who leaves soon for Cali
1ornla, and Mrs. Carrel, from i'll
health, were granted with regret.
The club is limited to 25 members.
Mrs. Carrel was granted honorary
membership,

Accidentally Shot.

j. f. Barclay, farmer living
about a mile north of town, was ac-
cidentally shot and rather seriously
wounded in the face by Louis
Bradtield, while the two were out
duck hunting on Rankin's Lake at
about dusk Thursday evening. The
lake is only small one and it was
too dark to see distinctly when Brad
field secured shot at a flying duck.
Barclay was upon the opposite side
of the lake from young Bradfield
and stray shot struck Barclay in one

Two Kansas farmers who
had "laid by" their corn were
standing in front of the livery
barn disputing over their res
pective churches. Finally one
called a neighbor who was pass
ing and asked his opinion as to
which was the only church in
which to be saved. " well' says
he, "My son and l have hauled
wheat to the same mill nigh
unto twenty years. Now there
are two roads that lead from
our place to the mill-one's

over the hill. And never yet,
friends, has the miller asked me
which road l took, but he al
ways ask; els your wheat good?'

The Danaer Line

All the work that has been
done and all the money that
has been spent in perfecting
the ditch proceedings up to
date is liable to go for nothing.
The law requires a bond to be
filed with the county auditor
to indemnify the property
owners for the right of way.
1t is merely a form, as the
property will be paid for out
of the bonds sold and the taxes
levied, but the bond must be
filed and signed by the property
owners. There seems to be a
disposition on the part of many
of the large property owners in
this city and in the drainage
district to refuse to sign the
bond. The men who have
given a large part of their time
and much of their money in
perfecting the ditch proceed
ings up to the present time are
getting tired, and if the bond
is not signed by those who arc
most interested by property in
terests, they will throw up the
whole matter and let the bitches
go by default. The bond must
soon be filed and every one
having property in the drainage
district should sign it.
