wish to extend their sincere thanks

REPUBLICAN ENTHUSIAn
Hat Failure to Get Out Big Crowd
ut Palisade Last Night.--The
Names of Lindsey and
Adams Were Cheer
ed Heartily.

AEother bitter disappointment was
in store for the Republican leaders
of the county last night at Palisade.
a meeting at that place for last
night had been widely advertised and
boosted on every hand and 1t was
confidently expected that several hun
dred people would crowd in and
around Palisade opera house last
night to hear Senator DeLong and
others speak about the glorious sun
shine, the fine fruit and the big po-
tatoes.
Early in the evening the Palisade
band got out on the streets and gave
concert. then it went down and
standing in front of the opera house
rendered several selections but still
the people didn't fall over themselv-
es to gather at the fountain" Then
the band gave a concert inside of the
hall and a few moments later the
performance opened with about three
score of people in the house.
When senator DeLong the prin-
cipal orator of the occasion made his
talk. there were n people in the
house by actual count. A good many
left after Mr.. DeLong had finished.
The mention of Judge Lindsey and
Gov. Adams by DeLong brought forth
storms of applause to the surprise
and chagrin of the speaker and the
other Republican leaders present
Evidently Adams and Lindsey were
very popular with the crowd. The
name of Buchtel arounsed no enthus-
iasm whatever.
Speeches We're made by John Cot
trell, Frank Secor, John Fry, George
Williams and A. B. Hoyt.
1t was a frosty gathering and an
other one of those funeral service
meetings patterned after the Buchtel

later in the afternoon both will be
laid to rest in the same grave at
Orchard Mesa cemetery to await the
morn of the Resurrection.
Mrs. Jensen was the daughter of
William Dingman, one of the pioneer
residents of the valley and one of the
best known citizens of the Plateau
Valley. From early childhood she
had lived in the county and her sad
death will bring sorrow to many
hearts. especially among those old
neighbors and friends who have
iinown her almost from babyhood.
Verna Dingman and Lee Jensen were
united in marriage only little more
thar a year ago. the young husband
too has spent nearly all Of his life in
the valley.
The sacrifice of the life of a young
wife at the hour of motherhood is

SENSATION AT oURAY.

Ouray society circles have been
shocked to their very foundation by
the news that Miss Anna Mcdonald,
acknowledged the prettiest woman
in Ouray county, has brought suit
against Robert J. Nix for breach of
promise. according to a dispatch
from the mining town.
Nix is a wealthy young rancher who
lives ten miles southeast of Ouray.
EIe has wealthy relatives in the east.
Miss Mcdonald became noted for her
beauty about two years ago when in
a contest held to determine who was
the most popular and prettiest maid
in the county she won the prize, a
diamond ring.
Edward Wheeler, the young lady's
attorney, declares he has enough evi-
dence to win his case before any jury.
It is understood that this evidence
consists of love letters, couched in
the most affectionate terms. The
young lady refuses to discuss the
case, as does also Mr.. Nix His
friends declare the young lady has
no claim upon him. Miss Mcdonald
recently returned from trip to Can
ada, where it is said she had gone to
