in mere prosaic language that the vital an
swer was given and that the couple was
welded.
Historians are now sending the informa-
ton broadcast through the land that Miss
Roosevelt will be the tenth White House
bride. but such is not the fact. She will be
the eleventh. It Is true that only nine
scheduled weddings have taken place In the
old mansion; but there was tenth which
history will ever ignore.

tendant, Baptist preacher was brought
in and the couple were united in one of the
state pariors. A few years ago the bride OF
this freak wedding was drawing the PEN
sion of a soldiers widow at Anderson, Ind.
Miss Roosevelt will be only the fourth
child of q President to be married in the
White House. The first was Miss Maria,
daughter of President Monroe, who there
welded her first cousin, Samuel L. Gouve-
neur. In March, 1870. The second was John,
son OF John Quincy Adams and brother OF
Charles Francis Adams. married there in
1928 to his cousin, Miss Helen, niece OF
Mrs. Adams The third was Miss Elizabeth,
daughter of President Tyler. who, Janu-
AIRY 81, 1872. married William Waller or
Williamsburg, Va. The fourth and last was
Miss Nellie Grant, welded May 81, 1874 to
Algernon Charles Frederick sartoris The

FAST WORK BEING DONE
IN GRADING GORGE LINE

Probably thousand Canon people
drove out to Three Mile Springs Sun
day to see how the grading was pro-
crossing on the electric line to the
Royal Gorge. They found that in the
ten days the graders had been at work
nearly mile and half of the grading
had been practically completed.
1t looked good" to see the business
like way in which the work was being
done. Sixteen teams and about fifty
men are at work. So far the grading
has been in earth, very little stone be-
ing encountered. By the last of this
week the graders will have struck the
hills and then will come the work in
stone ledge and canon. Here the work
will not proceed so rapidly and much
larger force will be required. The ties
are already stacked along the line and
will be ready to place as soon as the
rails come in. 1t Is expected to have
the line complete to the top OF the
Gorge by the first week in June.

THE NATATORIUM COMPANY
BUYS THE ARTESLAN WELL

The Natatorium Company last week
bought the artesian well of DR.. Wade.
The company will directly begin the
erection of pool 50x20O feet. 1t is
the expectation to have this pool COM
pleted within the next two months.
The purchase of the artesian well
makes unnecessary the sinking of an
other well.
The company now has twenty-six
acres of land and it is the intention to
build and equip one of the finest re-
sorts in this section.
Manager Granger has promised to
extend the street car lines to the well
as soon as the new buildings are In
Dlace.

AT THE BASKETBALL GAMES

The crowd at the basket ball games
Saturday night was really surprise
to the managers of the game. Two
hundred and fifty people were present.
There were two games-one between
the older girls from the Washington
school and the second high school
team, alternating with halves between
a team from the members OF the KID
gym team and team of Washington
school boys. Judging from the en-
thusiasm OF the audience the games
must have been very exciting.
The Washington girls won by
score of . to z, and the Y. N. 9. A.
boys had the best Of 1t by score OF

ers.
The annual church and congrega-
tional meeting of the Presbyterian con-
gregation was held after prayer meet
ing last Wednesday evening. H. E.
Smith, C. H. Whitmore and ]. S. Kis-
kaddon were reelected elders for the
elected elder for the two-year term
to fill the vacancy caused by the death
of ]. ]. Cone. Mrs. Reynolds and F.
A. Reynolds, Jr., were appointed a
committee to nominate the successor
of Mr.. F. A. Reynolds, Sr. This nomi-
nation will be acted upon at a future
meeting of the congregation. Every
department of the church made very
encouraging report. The treasurer,
Mr. Linneer, reported a larger balance
in the treasury than ever before in
the history of the church. George E.
Colgate was reelected deacon and "a.
ID. Morrison was reelected trustee of
the church.
Rev. J. T. Thomas of the First Pres
byterian church, will leave next Mon
day for Salida, where he will conduct
ten days or two weeks revival
meeting at the Presbyterian church of
that city. 1t was planned year ago
by the church at Salida to engage in
a series of evangelistic services this
spring and it was expected that a
union meeting would be held there un-
der the preaching of BILLY" Sunday.
Some time ago Mr.. Sunday found
that it would be impossible for him
to come to Colorado this year and the
matter of union meeting at Salida
was abandoned. So far as the Pres
byterian congregation of our sister
city is concerned, at least, Rev. Thom-
as will take the place of Mr.. Sunday.

Over in Squirla one of the churches
was building new edifice. Finding
that enough money could not be raised
among the members to erect as hand
some a structure as was desired,
committee was appointed to visit the
business men. The committee called
on Ferd. Jones, jeweler, and stated
its mission. Mr.. Jones said he would
put down for small subscription If
he might be allowed to add memoir
andum under his own name. The
committee agreed and Mr.. Jones wrote:

No Quorum Present.
Only 27Q0 shares were represented
at the meeting of the DeWeese-Dye
Ditch and Reservoir Co. Saturday af-
ternoon. AT the annual meeting over
5000 shares were voted. AS there was
not quorum of the stock present the
business of the meeting was passed
till the next annual meeting. The pur-
pose of the meeting was to increase
the directorate from three to five MEM
bers. But evidently it was the sense
of the stockholders that the present
board of directors was as capable of
caring for the Aterests of the COM
pany as larger board.
