The opera. Miss America. pre-

Tuesday evening by the Irma Opera
Company. under the auspices of
Wonderly's Orchestra. was the best
entertainment of that nature that
has visited La Junta in many a day.
The opera itself was rather light,
and somewhat destitute of plot or
theme, but the company was a good
one and contained some excellent
voices. The auditorium was well

easa Wreck Aftermath

The Eden wreck survivors. through
their attorneys. filed set Of suits
in the district court in Denver re-
Gently. involving claims for s35. 900
against the Denver & Rio Grande
railroad company. The Eden wreck
occurred August 7th. 1894. just one
year ago last Monday. and since that
time all efforts to settle the suits
have been unsuccessful. There were
l04 lives lost in the wreck and it is
thought there will be as many suits.
The charges are that the Denver a.
Rio Grande was directly responsible
for the wreck. A verdict to this
effect was rendered by the coroner's
jury. The company has agreed to
compromise all the suits for l.O0O
but those figures have been refused
by those who have banded them
selves together tn sue the railroad.
