HIS WIFE APPEARS on SCENE.
from Ouray Herald.)

She came in Friday night and ar
ranged for room in Ouray's most
fashionable residence section. She said
her husband was a travelling man and
that she wished to spend the summer
here for her health and that her hus-
band would spend his Sundays with her.
The name given the landlady was Mrs
Dean. Saturday night her husband
arrived and proved to be the editor of
the Delta County Laborer, II. D. Hop
kins. The injured wife~at Delta
through the sheriff's office made ar
rangements for securing evidence and
the climax came Monday night between
$50 and $50. Mr.. and Mrs. Hopkins
the second. had retired, blissfully ignor-
ant Of the presence Of the lawful wife
in Ouray. It was a rainy night and ice
formed the next morning. but the chill
they got was below zero, when sheriff
Corbett and Under Sheriff Knous ac-
companied Mrs. Hopkins to the room
where the couple were costly esconsed
When they entered the lady wore O
kimons and was concealed behind door
until requested by the sheriff to step
into view, and the gentleman was par
TALLY apparalled in his trousers. "That
is Mrs. Hutton" pointing an accusing
finger, ''and this is my husband" said
Mrs. Hopkins. The couple then vaca.
ted the room and went to hotel.
Conferences were held at the sheriff 8
Office in the hope that reconciliation
could be effected, but without success,
and Mrs. Hopkins stated that divorce
proceeding would be Immediately insti.
tuted upon her return to Delta. Nc
arrests were made. She was anxious
that the affair should have publicity.
The trio took the train Tuesday
morning, the woman, who is Mrs. Mar.
geret A. Hutton, presumably being
bound for her home at Gunnison where
her husband is employed on the Gunni-
son News. Mrs. Hopkins and her hus.
band returned to Delta. She was q
divorced woman when he married her
in New Mexico and had one child; he
was widower with one child.

Sarcasm...Triuth.

Wen take it all back. Well support
the Hotchkiss fair. Paonia and Hotch-
kiss are the best towns on earth. Del
ia isn't in it. Simply off the map when
compared. We don't care if not one
comes to our Fourth celebration and we
don't give snap if Hotchkiss and
Paonia knock this town all the time and
all they want to. We were bad fellows
for ever opening our head for we didn't
mean it and were only joking. We
don't think we ought to support Delta
and we do think we ought to cry our
selves into frenzy boosting Hotchkiss
and the North Fork. We expect to
come to the fair up the valley in train
loads and we hope to bring wagonloads
full of silver dollars and spend it all
and borrow the price Of a ticket to get
back home. We are first class pikers
and we havn't any right to be on earth
and this is all sarcasm.
We think Hotchkiss is foolish to hold
n Fourth celebration and we think Pa
onia is not. We think Hotchkiss is
wise to hold a fair and we think Paonia
is foolish. We are OF the opinion that
the real down-at- the heart reason that
Hotchkiss is to have q Fourth is to sell
few more kegs Of Budweiscr and
few more gallons Of cream. And we
think that the editor Of the North Fork
Times hal better make it practice to
file away the weekly issues Of the Inde-
pendent il he is to make any more
assertions concerning when I'VE sprung
our Fourth" And we think we would
not prevaricate in the degree he has il
such had been done for then he would
have learned that the Hotchkiss Fourth
was still matter unheard Of when
Delta said something" And we think
that Rawalt is just as bad as Blackwell
when he says we are joking about not
boosting for the fair AT Ho:chkiss.
Why should Delta boost for Ho.chkiss
fair II Hotchkiss refuses to boost for .
Delta Fourth? And ali this Is not sar-
casm but gospel truth.

DENVER MARKETS.

DENVER UNION STocx YARDS. June
4-Over 1900 head of cattle were re-
ceived at the local yards last week but
most of them were southerns and ma
tives in light supply. Demand good
for all kinds and prices closed steady
wi h preceding week. Eastern mar
kets were dull however, and lower.
Packers on this market were good buy
ers as supply was not equal to the de-
mand. Beef steers were very scarce
and sold readily. Best brought s4.60
but quality just fair and choice steers
would have sold around s4.75 to $4.S5.
Cows were also in good request. bulk Of
better killers going at $500 to s3.65
with choice up to $3.50. Bulls were
steady and veals higher with tops for
the week at $6.40. Feeder and stocker
trade very limited as supply was light.
Demand here was good and the few Of
fered sold at steady prices but eastern
markets report very light inquiry and
trade dull. Several punches of south
ern two-year-olds sold at ga. to s25. per
head but few yearlings offered as they
are very scarce in the south. Demand
for southern cattle is very good on this
market. Some very choice steers were
here today and market active at strong
prices. Fancy South Park hay-feds
brought $500, the high price for weeks.
and bulk Of the steers here sold at $4.6O
to $3.50. Cows were about a dime low
er on account of eastern declines last
week.
Reports Indicate scarcity of beef
cattle in territory tributary to this
market as most Of them have beer
shipped. Dealers therefore look for ar
active and strong market here for some
time. The agitation against the pro
ducts Of eastern packing houses is
bound to result in a better demand for
home dressed meats as sanitary condi
tions at the local houses are known tc
be first class, and western shippers are
urged to send their cattle this way fol
good returns.
