THE RAIN
Stopped Harvesting But
Made Tobacco Season.

The rain which began falling early
yesterday morning and continued
through the day, put sudden stop
to wheat harvesting, which had
fairly begun. Should today be clear
the crop will be all right for the ma
chimes tomorrow. Though the rain
stopped the harvesters, it gave the
farmers a good season to set out the
balance of tobacco plants which they
failed to get out the last season for
planting.

and when ordered to leave the train
the men responded with abusive talk
and then with force, hurling the brake
man from the train and threatening
to shoot. Later the train crew made
an attempt to put the men of but
were repulsed and at Fingal wired
to Valley City to the authorities to
arrest them when the train arrived.
Chief Burt, M. Rumnyon, a livery
man and policeman named Flemming
made an attempt to arrest the desper-
ADDE'S but were beaten off. the fellows
freely using firearms In the melee
which followed. Flemming was seri-
ously injured by shot in the leg and
Is In the hospital in this city. The
toughs made good their escape with
the exception of one suspect who was
captured but it Is not certain that he
was one OF the men. 1t is claimed that
the men had masks and 1t thought they
are members of gang of postoffice
robbers who have been operating in
this section of the state.

one is giving his time to the enter
tainment of the Elks and their friends
who have rounded up here for their
annual national convention. For the
present it is mirth and music by day,
and music and mirth by night.
Every train that comes into the city
brings new delegates. The reception
committee is unable to keep track of
them all, and there are some laughable
incidents brought to light, when some
lost, strayed or stolen members of
the antlered herd wander into the
fold.
In honor of the visitors Denver is a
sea of purple and bower of lowell
ness. Merchants have We'd with one
another in striving to make the most
lavish display in the way of decora-
tions. Public buildings, hotels and
business houses are swathed in flags,
bunting and streamers, while the in
tersection of all prominent streets in
the downtown section is marked by a
handsome arch which blazes with hun
dreds of vari-colored electric bulbs
after nightfall. On alighting at the
Union depot the visitors are greeted
by a blazing arch of welcome which is
made up OF more than 1000 lights.
The balconies and gallery of the
Tabor opera house will be thrown
open to the public at tonight's exer-
cises marking the formal opening of
the convention. Governor Mcdonald
will make an address of welcome, as
will also Mayor Speer. Exalted Ruler
Walter Collier will preside, and will
introduce the speakers. The response
to the greetings will be made by Grand
Exalted Ruler Robert W. Brown of
Louisville. The addresses will be in
terspersed with an elaborate program
of music, in which q chorus of 500
voices and several of the visiting
bands will have part.
