bridge. between here and North Delta.

the railing, suddenly turned toward him
with q leveled revolver and said throw
up your hands partner. Bass told him
that he would not do it, when others
who were returning home from the
show stepped onto the bridge and frus-
trated matters. The hod-up dropped
of and went under the bridge among
the willows and was lost to view.

MONTROSE GETS BACK
Delta Hish School Foot Ball Team
Is Defeated.

The high school football team which
went to Montrose last Saturday was de-
feated-not by the high school Of that
place. but by big burly outsiders who
were put into the game simply because
the high school at that place knew that
they could not hope for anything but 4
repetition of the recent game here. For
several years the two high schools have
had teams that were 20 evenly matched
neither could win from the other. This
year the Delta team outclassed their old
opponents and defeated them in the first
game, at no time having their goal en-
dangered. But on the return game
which was played last Saturday. out
side '.ringers'' were secured that We're
not in the school at all in order to reap
revenge for the recent drubbing given
them.
This was not all, the referee allowed
slugging and rough tactics to be used
by the Montrose team Throughout and
on his attention being called to this
manner Of playing time and again he
finally stated that they could use any
kind Of roughness they pleased. At
this point the game was nearly oyer but
the Delta team managed to put several
out Of the game at their own tactics.
Montrose is about the only town on
the western slope that would resort te
any such methods a. these in order te
win u contest which should be purely
between the schools. 1t is not likely
that another game will be played
whereby the Delta high school will put
themselves against = picked bunch Of
roughs from Aontrose county.

Tunnel Over 4 Mile.

Last week the Gunnison tunnel passed
over the first mile mark. This great
bore is being pushed forward more rap
idly now than at any time since work
was began and although four headings
are being worked other shafts are to be
sunk along the route and new headings
begun. There has only been eight
months work done on the tunnel in all
and several of these were spent mostly
in preliminaries. In fact work was not
really started in earnest until the gov
eminent forces took charge in June.
