Arizona.

The Greeley opera house was
crowded last Friday evening when
"Arizona" was presented. A speclal
train from Eaton brought 100 people
and was late in arriving, causing a
delay In the beginning OF the perfor-
nance.
Arizona" is without q doubt the
best of the western plays. The char
acters were perfectly natural and not
overdrawn. The play was strong
one and was given by strong com
pany with no weak playing by any
one to mar the whole.
There was the usual wealthy
ranchman and his charming daugh-
tiers, soldiers from the army post and
q graceful Spaniard with his most
ardent love making and musical
voice. 1t is an intensely interesting
and satisfying drama for the william
Is killed. the wrong doers suffer and
the rest live happy ever after.
The evening was thoroughly en-
joyable one to all who attended.

STORMS GRIP
HOLDS REGION FAST FOR
SEVENTY-TWO HOURS
Snow Fall One of the Heaviest
in History Of Country j,
No Damaged Crops
as Yet

What Is probably one OF the big
gest snow falls In the history OF this
section was that which fell during
the 70 hours from Saturday noon,
Oct. 20, to Tuseday noon, Oct. %.
So near az. could be measured, close
to three feet OF snow fell and Tues
day morning there were still 25
inches of snow on the level. During
the day, however, the air warmed
enough SO that the snow settled
several inches.
So far 1t is hard to estimate the
damage done to sugar beets and the
potatoes still left in the ground. At
a conservative estimate there are
still million dollars worth of crop
In the ground. This has not suffered
any up to the present time and If the
snow clears off without very severe
frost it Is likely that but little
damage will result. The air on
Wednesday is clear and warming
rapidly. One serious difficulty with
which the farmers will meet when
the snow does clear away will be
that of insufficient help to gather
the crop. Hundreds OF beet workers
and potato pickers left town during
the storm, prefering to go to their
distant homes at once rather than to
wait for the uncertainty of the
weather moderating. Labor In the
first place was scarce and with the
departure Of four or five hundred lab
orers from the Greeley district alone
the problem will be q serious one.
Stock on the range east of Greeley
suffered but little as all was in ex-
cellent condition when the storm ar
rived. The unusually good feed on
the range had brought cattle almost
to marketable condition and bar
ring some shrinkage in weight their
loss will be practically nothing
Had the storm struck live stock late
in the winter, after winter ranging.
the loss would have been heavy.
A few sheep were killed in the
feed pens by the animals fiocking 80
closely together for shelter against
the storm. In some of the pens the
snow drifted SO high that the sheep
walked over the fences on the drifts
From reports coming in from other
parts of Colorado and Wyoming the
section about Greeley escaped pretty
lucky. In Wyoming practically all
railroad and much other business
was at a standstill. AS far east
even as the Nebraska line the storm
was more severe than at Greeley, al
though the snow fall here was one OF
the heaviest in the entire region.
The train service was interfered with
but little.
