For a moment an angry tide swept
across the face Of the younger De
Lisle- When it passed, his face was a
trffe paler than before, and his lips
were slightly compressed, but there
was a hooking CLEAN OF mischief In
his eyes as he answered:
Father. I shall marry Ellen yet. and
with your full permission"
The old man was more than ever en-
ragged, and his voice sounded hollow
and sepuIchral, and every word he ut
tered was cut OF with pugilistic ges-
ture of his clinched fist.

Ellen grew morbidly sensitive under

DEAR HANDS.

Roughened and with ceaseless toll and care
No perfumed grace. no dainty Skill had these;
They earned for whittier hands Jeweed case
And kept their scars unlovely for their share.
Patient and SLOW they had the win to bear
The whole worlds burdens but no power to seize
The flying joys of life the gifts that please
The gold and gems that others find so fair
Dear hands, where bridal jewel never shone
Wherein no lovers kiss ever pressed
Crossed in unwonted quiet ON the breast
see, through tears, your glory newly won,
The golden circet OF life's work well done
Set with the shining pearl OF perfect rest

Mr.. Penuock hopes to begin to

Cosgriff Bros. Co. store, at this
place, has made a complete change
in the business arrangement of the
building owned and occupied by
that firm as a store building. The
store has been thrown into one
large two. story room, facing the
north, and the dry goods, grocer
les and shelf hardware are all in
the one room, making it possible
to take in the whole store at a
glance. The arrangement is a
great improvement yer the old
store room which was over a hun
bred feet in length and necessitat-
ed a great deal of walking to at
tend to customers. There has
been practically no change in the
dry goods department.

THE NOVELTY SHOW 60.

The Novelty Show Company,
composed of H. G. Wilcox, violin.
ist, Owe Fl, Peterson, pianist, and
Gus c. Scholley, baritone vocalist,
supplemented by one of the latest
Edison Electric kaleidoscope, with
moving pictures and illustrated
songs, gave two entertainments in
Jensen hall on the evening of
July 3rd and 4th to large and ap-
preciative audiences. Without
doubt, Mr.. Wilcox is the best
violinist in the state. and Mr..
Peterson is entitled to a very high
position a a pianist. Mr. SchoI-
ley is a young man with a remark
ably fine baritone voice that
pleases every one who hears him.
The entertainment consists of
illustrated songs and moving pic
lures, all interspersed by most
excellent music. A detailed ac-
count of all that WAS given would
occupy too much space, SO we are
compiled to refer to the entertain
ments very briefly. There was a
most appreciative audience pres
ent the first evening and the hall
was comfortable filed. The sec
ond night there was an entire
change of program and the house
was crowded to its utmost cap
acity. Every scene was generous
ly %applauded, and only the limit
ed time at the command of the
performance prevented Mr.. Schol-
ley responding to the enthusiastic
applause that greeted his rendition
of the illustrated songs.
Without any attempt at hattery
it is safe to say that the Novelty
Show Company has one of the
most complete outfits of its kind
and deserves crowded house wher-
ever it may stop. The pictures
are good and the music and sing
ing is the best that can be fur
nished in this western country.
The Sun has no hesitancy in say
ing that the Novelty Show Co.,
stands at the head. From here
they will go to Encampment
after which they will visit other
points in the state, ending up the
by going to Steamboat
Springs and other Colorado
points.

ENcAMpMENT-PEARL ROUTE OK

Word has been received at this
Office that the contemplated dis
continuance of the mail route be-
tween bennington and Pearl has
been abandoned. The fact that
the government intended to aban-
don the mail route between those
two points aroused the people OF
this part of the country to action.
A protest, numerously signed by
our merchants and business men,
was sent to Congressman Mon
deli and by him sent to the de-
partment with a strong letter en-,

dropping of the route. The word
which came this week was to the
effect that for the present, at leas'

THE FOURTH
Saratoga has Quiet, But
Pleasant Celebra-
ton
RANCHMEN COME
Surrounding Country and Assist In the
Festivities-A Day Free From Acct
dents and Enjoyed by all

Festivities Day Free From Acct
dents and Enjoyed by all
Saratoga pulled off a very quiet
but interesting Fourth, and the
town has again assumed its air of
business hustle and enterprise.
1t was supposed that many of our
people would go to Rawlins to
help out on the celebration at that
place. and while this was the case
the rest of the residents here this
place spent the day with us, and
enjoyed the races and other
amusements, attending the fine
musical and moving picture show
furnished them by the Novelty
Show Company in Jensen Hall.
The first event of the day took
place at 1920, a. M, when the
Spring Greek Juniors and the
Saratoga :Willow-tails" INDUCED
in a game of base ball, the game
being won by the Spring creek
boys who got the prize of SIS
hung up for the game.
In the afternoon the first race
run was a half mile free for all,
which was won DO Don McPhail's
Ben Hur" with Joe NUNS pony
second The money was $25 and
SIS.
The free for all quarter mile
dash was won by Frank NUM-
"Rattler," with Don McPhail's
king second. Purse SIS and
$40.
Then came the boys foot race,
in which Stewart McPhail took
first money. So, and Charles Price
second, S.
Then came the ladies' race.
There were three entries, Miss
Nellie Booth, Mrs. Mamie Clutf
and Miss Nettie Peck.
Miss Booth, on Don McPhail's
mig" won first prize and Mrs.
Cluff, on Ben, took second
money. The purses we're Sl5 and
$40.
The 9TH event was the pony
race, in which the purses were $40
and So. First money was won by
Joe Munz's pony, with Frank
Brewers COX" in second place.
This was followed by the base
ball between the "Hayseeds," and
the Saratoga team, in which the
"Hayseeds" got away with the
baggage. The pures was S25 in
this case.
This brought the exercises of
the day down to six o'clock, but
there was still another attraction
a bucking contest. There were
only two entries in this case, David
Wilcox and Frank Brewer. A
purse was MAIDS up from the
crowd and divided between the
two. Both did some excellent
riding with the honors in favor
of Dave
The day was wound up by the
very excellent musical and moving
picture show in Jensen hall. after
which the seats were cleared out
and a grand ball was held, which
lasted until late in the night.
