An Excellent
Celebration
Cottonwood Puts Up Two Days
of Amusements for a Large
Crowd and all Seem Well Satis-
fled with Results.

At last the celebration is over.
The eagle has screamed his
fiercest scream and retired to his
mountain haunts for another
twelve months.
That the celebration was a
success does not half express it.
1t was a rip roaring success in
every way, the best celebration
Cottonwood has ever seen and
by far the best celebration on
the two prairies this year, if we
can believe reports from outside
points. Everything went off
according to schedule and there
was not an accident of any sort
to mar the pleasure of either
day.
The program on the 4th open
ed up with a beautiful parade at
10 o'clock headed by Marshal of
the Day Farnsworth. Next fol-
lowed the liberty car loaded with
little girls and after that came
the bands and the floats of the
different business houses. Of
these the floats of the local flour
mill and the James saw mill were
worthy of special mention, hut
all were exceptionally good.
The parade started at the Odd
Fellow hall and passed up Coram
street to north of the Catholic
church, then back down King
street and Main from where it
passed around the block and
ended at the band pavilion. At
this place Prof. Alvord delivered
a stirring patriotic address, the
best ever given here, and Rev.
Berthold read the Declaration of
independence in an impressive
manner.
The afternoon was given over
to the smaller races and in the
evening the fireworks were set
off and then the dances afforded
amusement for the crowd until
early the next morning. On the
5th the ball game took up most
of the afternoon. Three teams
were present to play for the
$1OO purse and after drawing
lots it fell to the Cottonwood
team to play the so-called Forest
aggregation. This team was
composed of men from Forest,
Woodside, Westlake and other
places and with the help of an
imported battery they won the
game by a score of IL to Z, but
the local team made them know
that they were playing ball be.
fore the game ended. After the
ball game several good horse
races were pulled off and later
the dances again held sway.
Throughout both days of the
celebration the Denver and Cot
tonwood bands furnished plenty
of music for the occasion anC
their efforts were thoroughly ap
preciated. Also everything wa'
conducted in an orderly manner
and no fights or brawls occurred
to detract from the joyousnes'
of the occasion. All departed
we'll satisfied with the celebra
ton and not a word of complain
was heard which goes conclusive
ly to show that Cottonwood cal
put up the right kind of a cele
bratiOn when it wants to.

MANY DIAMONDS IMPORTED
Value of Precious Stones Shipped in
During Year Amount to Over
$3,OO0,0O0.

NEW YORK, Dec. Return
ing steamships have brought back
in the last week many diamond i'm
porters who went to Europe to get
supplies for the holiday season, and
they agree that the gems are scarcer
and higher in price, than ever be-
fore in their experience.
The present holiday trade in New
York is said to have called for the
greatest quantity and value of fine
diamonds ever sold in any country
in single season. With December s
figures still to be added, the imports
of precious stones at New York this
year exceed in value s3,000,G00 the
total forAall the last year, which was
the record up to that time. The ag-
gregate thus far in 1906 is $4O,5OO,-
900 and December promises to make
a large addition to that figure Some
authorities estimated that New York
bought 60 per cent of the world S
supply of stones.
