Giks' Creed Applied.

Mans inhumanity to man
makes all true Elks get busy. The
Elks' creed is to DO Good" to NOR
tails here below, and let the hereafter
take care of itself. do not keep
the alabaster boxes of your love and
tenderness sealed up until your
friends are dead. Fill their lives
with sweetness; speak approving.
cheering words while their ears can
hear them, and their hearts can be
thrilled and made happier" The
kind things you mean to say and do
when they have gone, say and do be-
fore they go. This may not be prac-
tical and orthodox Christianity, but
it is plain, ordinary humanity, and
that is what all true Elks believe in.
The Elks' creed as practically ap-
piled was demonstrated one day last
week in La Junta.
Early last Friday morning Frank
Cameron, a young man about twen-
ty-five years old. arrived in La Junta
with badly crushed foot. He was
penniless and without a friend, and
for hours laid in the baggage-room
without medical or any other atten-
ton. Cameron was on his way to
Granada to work with grading out
fit. While the train was going slow
his hat blew off, and he thought he
would be able to secure it and get
back on the train without danger.
He was mistaken. In attempting to
climb on the train again he slipped
and fell beneath the wheels. his right
foot being crushed and mangied.
As he was not a resident of Prov
ers county, he was shipped to La
La Junta tribune. (La Junta, Bent County, Colo.) 1881-1939, 1906-05-30

The above is perfect representa-
ton Of one of our most valued fea-
lures. viz: The engagement Of the
world-famous comedian. Mr.. Claire
Althen, who will do stunts with his
Red Flyer" on the occasion Of the
Elks' minstrels. This act is easily
worth the price of admission.
George Cunning and his partner,
Mr.. Vail. Of Pueblo, will be here TO
participate. and Mr.. Clint Draper is
also here. With all this talent. COM
bined with new scenery, costumes,
ETC.. this years show will be hum

Junta. Ii is claimed that the Santa
Fe hospital Was not notified, and the
injured man was allowed TO lie in
the baggage room for hours without
the least attention being paid to him.
Finally some pitying mortal tele-
phoned for a physician. but he re-
piled that he was busy and could not
come Another was summoned. who
bound up his injuries to some extent
and then left to ascertain whether
the city or county would take the
case. While he was in search of in
formation the attention of Claire
Althen, past exalted ruler of the
Elks. was called TO the case He at
once realized that the man was suf-
fering and needed immediate atten-
ton. With the true spirit of Elk
dom, he at once telephoned for the
lodge physician and ordered car
riage to take the injured man to the
City Hospital, where he is at pres
ent quartered in the Elks' room.
Cameron's right leg was amputated
just above the ankle. and although
he is still in bad condition result
ing from lack of attention. it is
thought that he will be able to pull
through in good shape in the course
Of time. At present he is the guest
of La Junta Lodge. No. 70l, b. p.
o. E.. and will be well taken care Of
if it takes a month or a year for him
to recover.
Whether the state Of Colorado. the
county of Prowers. the county of
Otero. the city Of La Junta, the Santa
Fe railroad company. the Santa Fe
hospital. or the physicians called are
to blame for neglect. we are not pre-
pared to say. They all plead mot
guilty" We only know that when
q friendless. penniless, badly injured
man arrives in La Junta all he
has to do is to notify the Elks lodge
and he will be well taken care Of.

Bribery Rampant at the Close Of the
Eighteenth Century.

Votes have been purchased shame.
lessly and on huge scale in British
elections. An arrangement was once
made in the borough of Wendover by
which two candidates were to be
elected after a distribution of 10000
($30,000l among the voters. The ac-
count reads This being settled a
gentleman was employed to go down,
when he was met according to pre-
vious appointment by the electors
about a mile from the town. The cleo
tors asked the stranger where he
came from. He replied From the
moon They then asked, What news
from the moon? He answered that
he had brought from hence $4,000
to be distributed among them. The
electors. being thus satisfied with the
golden news from the moon, chose the
candidates and received their re-
ward"
AZ Hindon a man dressed fantastic
ally as the dancing Punch called at
the house of the voters and left be-
hind him sums of five to ten guineas
ts25 to $500. Another device was to
collect the citizens at the inns and
hand them their reward through
hole in the door. For these offenses
the house of commons passed reso-
luton that Hindon should be disfran-
chised, but so lax were the morals of
the time-the close of the eighteenth
century-that the resolution was
never acted upon.
Again in 1859 the Man in the
Moon" turned up in Wakefield. He
went about openly distributing money
and did not appear to be in the least
ashamed of his occupation. At Dub
lin, in 1868, hole in the wall served
the purpose of a distributing center
for the 95 (s25) notes. while at
Shaftesbuiy an alderman paid through
hole in the door of his Office sum
of 20 guineas ($100) to each elector.

who was driving dropped the reins.
The horse was on a dead run when 1t

Pauline Weiss was picking daisies.
The two girls were clinging to each
other and crying out in terror. Miss
Weiss dropped her apron, half filled
with flowers. vaulted over the four
rail fence and ran to the middle of
the road. She seized the bride of the
horse as it got abreast of her, and
held on, swaying back and forth and
saving on the bit. for more than
hundred yards.
Quite similar to this was the dar-
ing act of Mrs. George Corwin. of
Stamford. She seized the bit of
frantic horse dashing toward a crowd
in the main street of Bridgeport. and
by her courage and presence of mind
saved the lives or limbs
of more than one person.
