The Gentleman
Ragman

By Wilbur NssbH
This is a story told by a boy
in a country town.
1t is a funny story in spite of
itself, but the fun is only one
part of it
There is an amateur boy de-
tective in it who is a humorous
wonder.
And a girl poet.
The way things work out is
just the way things went when
most of us lived in country
towns.
Except that perhaps we never
saw a lot of nice girls try the
barefoot Kneip cure in a stubby
field.
1t is a new type and perhaps
the kind of story you enjoy.

Ann
Boyd
BY WM N. Harden

Ann Boyd is a character you
will meet only once in fiction.
Single handed she fights the
battle of injured womanhood. She
sturdily faces the conventional
prejudice of years in her home
town, and at last wins out. And,
strangely enough, her grim
triumph is brought about by the
happy romance of her enemy's
daughter.
There is real clash in this
story of feminine rivalry. 1t is
woman against woman, and both
women win!

ACCIDENTAL DEATH.
Says the COroner's jury i'm the Case of
David Sneddon-Intermcnt
nj nrchard Mesa This
Morning at Ten.

This morning a coroner's jury re-
turned a verdict finding that David
Sheldon, who was killed few days
ago, on the railroad, met his death
accidentally. The jury Waved the re-
mains on Saturday afternoon and this
morning after hearing some testi-
mony returned its verdict.
Last night X. b. Douglass, an old
time friend of the unfortunate man,
arrived in the city from ogden, Utah,
and fully identified the remains.
Dougless stated that Sheldon had
resided in Ogden for the past seven
months and a widowed mother resid-
ing in that city survives him. He
stated that Sneddon had been inclin-
ed to rove over the country, staying
at no place any length of time, for
many years. He was never steadily
employed for any length of time, it
seems.
At first 1t was decided to ship the
remains to Ogden for burial but later
Mr.. Douglass acting for the dead
mans mother instructed Undertaken
Gourley to make the interment at Or
chard Mesa cemetery. The burial
took place at ten O'Clock this morn

ALMOST REACHEp A BILLIoN.

Washington, July 1.-Chairman
Tawney of the house appropriations
committee made the following state
ment as to the appropriations for the
fiscal year of 1907:
The total appropriations made at
this session of congress, including
those carried in the regular approp-
Ration acts, all deficiencies, miscel-
laneous matters and permanent an
nual appropriations, aggregate $780,
1S3,301.
This is an apparent increase of
$50. 100000 over the appropriations
made at the last session of congress.
This is more than accounted for
in the three following items:
For the Isthmean canal $42,447,-
900, under the statehood bill $10,-
250,000 toward the construction of
new buildings, authorized at this ses-
sion, $40, 1921 900 making a total of
500, ,O1S.OOO to which might prep
erly be added s5.00O,0O0 for San

ucts and $1O.OOO.00O on account of

Grand Junction is to have a wire
less telegraph station. 1t is to be
installed and established at once,
within a few days. 1t is to be a per-
manent station and there is nothing
experimental about it.
Yesterday at noon Mr.. Charles

accompanied by his brother and Mr..
Miller, arrived in the city and today
are completing arrangements for the
establishment of the station.
Mr. Kitsniller has for some time
been connected with the DeForrest
Wireless Telegraph company, per-
haps the strongest company of its
kind in the world today, having in
successful operation stations through
out the country.
The local station will be on the
DeForrest circuit.
The station Will be thoroughly and
completely equipped, and will at all
times be in charge of competent
operators.
Mr.. Kittsmiller will probably Sc
cure headquarters in the Mesa county
bank building and at the high school
building for his apparatus, this mat
ter to be fully decided upon this

A station will also be established
at Fruita and one will also be put in
at Palisade. This too will be done

The instruments have arrived and
just as soon as quarters can de Sc
cured and other preliminary arrange
ments made the stations will be put
into ective operation.
The putting in at Grand Junction
of this latest mode of communica-
tion with outside points marks an
other step in the metropolitan

boast of wireless telegraph stations.
