1.-TWO Little Waits"

THE Two Little Waifs,' Lincoln
j. Carter strong melodrama, will be
seen at the Glenwood Opera House on
Tuesday, Feb. IS for one night only.
The five acts in which the play is di
vided is well staged. The stage set
rule the main springs of a melodrama
hut in this play Mr.. Carter has given
us story of exceptional worth and
consistent in its plot, thus giving the
company ample opportunity to do
some excellent dramatic work.
The story has to do with twin sis
ters, one the sweet loving mother and
the other callous, cruel adventures
which are taken by one and the same
lady. The way in which she portrays
these two characters and her light
ming changes and makeup is some
thing marvellous and it needs the
closest watching to detect the fact
that it is one person only playing the
two parts. This theme of mistaken
identity is as old as the drama itself
but in this play it is told in an en-
tirely new and cleverIy conceived
style. The children who play the
parts of the two little waits give a
very pathetic rendition of the sadness
and loneliness in their little hearts
which never fails to bring tears and
sympathy from every man, woman
ind child There is rare vein of
comedy that frequently cuts in be
tween the more serious action of the
plot and several novel specialties are
introduced. The scenic investure is
much in evidence and with the cleo
trical and mechanical effects form an
elaborate stage setting

Death of a Pioneer

George Bennett, one of the pioneers
of Garfield county, died Wednesday
night at midnight at his home three
miles above Glenwood Mr.. Bennett
had for many months suffered from
stomach and heart trouble, and for the
past year has been breaking rapidly.
He suffered an attack of pneumonia
week ago last Sunday, but rallied
and came to town on the following
Friday, but was so weak from the exer-
tion incident to the trip that he took
to his bed as soon as he reached home,
and gradually grew worse until the
end came.
Mr.. Bennett has been identified with
the progress of Garfield corntyfor over
20 years, and is noted for having built
more roads than any man in the coun
ty, and some of our best roads at the
present time We're built by him in
mill business, many of them without
any expense whatever to the county.
So well was Mr. Bennett S knowl-
edge of road building recognized that
he was recently appointed as road
overseer for this district.
Mr. Bennett was soldier in the war
of the rebellion, and was one of the
few G. A. Il. veterans to always an
swer the roll call mt the g. A X.
memorial exercises on Decoration Day.
Had he lived until April 18th he would
have been 66 years of age.
Mr.. Bennett leaves wife and son,
the latter now in Denver One broth
er in Minnesota also survives him.
These relatives, as well as John w.
Bcaman, of Victor. a former bust
ness partner and ever warm person
al friend have been notified and are
expected to be present at the funeral,

Ugly Cutting SCrdpe

There was lively cutting scrape
at Cardiff Thursday afternoon as the
result Of drunken dispute between
Bergen Miller and John Baker on the
one side and jim DozZi and Joe Mar
tinelli on the other. Dozzi received
an ugly cash in the left breast from
Miller's stilletto which completely
severed one rib Martinelli is not so
badly carved and in no danger but
Dozzi wounds are considered very
serious. Miller and Baker are North
Carolina strike breakers who came
to this country when the strike was
on nearly a year ago and went to
work at the coke ovens filling the
places of the striking Italians. On
this account the Italians have never
entertained very kindly feeling for
their southern friends and the rapid
absorption of Cardiff s moisture on
Washington birthday did not help
matters in the least.
Sheriff Zimmerman was on the
ground soon after the trouble took
place and arrested Miller and Baker
who are now in Jail. They are re-
garded as tough characters especially

trouble heretofore

A NOVEL lAND EXCITING EPISODE

Wednesday afternoon while Glen
wood citizens celebrated the birth of
the man who furnished the world with
that famous cherry tree episode by
disporting themselves in the big swim
ming pool a wild deer, pursued by a
dog, rushed across the grounds of the
Hot Springs company and plunged into
the pool. After swimming across the
pool and making several efforts to
scale the wall on the opposite side the
animal swan about four times around
the pool and was finally lassoed by
Sheriff Zimmerman, whose presence of
mind had prompted him to send over
town after rope.
Wnen the animal was helped up on
the bank it showed disposition to
fight, and the men who had taken his
buckship in charge made haste to re-
lease him before he could recover his
wind and become aggressive. When
released. the deer ran down to the
Grand river and jumped in, swi IN
ming to the south side of the stream
and landing near the D. r. g. depot
As the crowd gathered on the bank the
deer again entered the water and
swan down with the current, passing
under the state bridge and leaving the
river near the railroad bridge. He then
moved slowly toward Iron mountain
and was finally lost in the cedars
There are various rumors concern
ing the animal, some claiming he was
chased off of Lookout mountain and
had crossed the Grand river and jump
ed into the pool thinking it was an
ordinary stream. Others believe it

FOR new DISTRICT
Commissioners Meet Mesa County
OffiCidIS--Agree on Settlement
of Roam Greek Dispute

Commissioners Ralston, Jessup and
Brennan, County Attorney Darrow
and Division Engineer Dickson with
delegation of Roam Creek ranch
men went down to Grand Junction
last Saturday for the purpose of con
ferring with similar officers of Mesa
county in regard to the Roam creek
section ever which the two counties
have had considerable trouble during
the past three years there being dis
water district No. 80 or 42 The
wording of the statute establishing
No. 80 is ambiguous while later
law defining the boundaries of No. Az
places that portion of Mesa county
drawing water from Roam creek in
district AZ
In addition to this conflict Judge
Stevens in decision rendered few
years ago declared that the Roam creek
country was not in any water district
and since that decision the Mesa
county officials have regarded the ter
ritory as 'No mans land and have
refused to recognize Water Commits
sioner Fravert or the deputies appoin
ted by him. This has forced Garfield
county to pay all the expenses for the
distribution of water in district No.
30 except as to Roam creek while Mesa
county has for the past two seasons
been obliged in order to protect its
own residents who own the early
rights to provide a water commissin Ell
paying the entire salary
The matter was amiciably adjusted
by both counties recommending to the
Legislature the establishment of new
district comprising all lands watered
from Roam creek without regard to
county lines each county to pay half
the cost of the distribution of the wa
ter. This was thought to be the only
solution of the annoying question but
with the apparent disposition of the
present legislature to do nothing it is
greatly feared that the pill will not
become law at this session.
