}. E. Winsor representing the
ftric light people, was very lib
and strings of red, white and
e electric lights were strung
bss the streets and two arches
led over the large iron bridge.
I business houses were all gay
decorated with bunting and
Is were abundant. A large
. with the legend, "Welcome,"
J placed across the street the
lroad track and the large paint
canvass signs of the Saratoga
Fings Company were stretched
PISS the streets, one east of the
bge and one at the corner of

he crowds began to pour into

all the rotels were full

a special train from Raw

to the grounds on the island
pre- a large audience awaited

Forde, came the address of

Fch was a very happy speech.
Governor Brooks was then in
fuced aud made one of the
/ speeches that had been heard
+ for many days. He referred

of the Pony Express that ran

stacked in boxes. Wooden plates
we're served and the menu was
made up of bread, butter, pickles,
Saratoga chips and delicious cof-
fee, to say nothing of the finest
trout that any hungry crowd ever
ate.
The dinner was a wonderful
success and a tremindous crowd
was fed. Just how successful it
was can best be told in the words
of Warren McCord, travelling
agent of the Chicago & Northwes-
tern, who was present and partook
of it. He said: 81 have been
everywhere in the west that such
doings as this have been held, but
l must say that this beats any
thing of the kind I've seen to a
FRAGILE. l have been to Long
mont's Pumpkin Pie" feast; 1
have attended Grand Junction
"Peach Day" L have been pres
ent at Rocky Ford's Mellon Days"
Greeley's Potato Bake" and
Loveland's "Corn Roast" but
none of them begins to compare
with the brilliant success you peo-
pie have made Of your Trout
Dinner" Why you people amaze
me! At some of those places they
cannot control the crowds only by
putting up wire fences and max
ing a kind IF chute, letting in one
man or woman at a time. Here
all is in order, Everything NOV
es like clock work. It's simply
amazing to see how very orderly
and pleasant everything is. If you
people ever have anything like
this again just count on me to
boost it for all l am worth"
In the afternoon every body at
tended the races.
The first race was a mile
pony race. Won by maid"
owned by j. E. Sewers. Second
money was taken by Don Nc
Phail's wolf"
The first half of the bucking
contest took place next and the
riders were Jack Kenneday. Frank
Wilcox, Hugh Clark and Jack
Dempsey. Wilcox rode first and
put up a good ride, followed by
Hugh Clark who could ride but
didn't get anything that could
jump. Kenneday made a clean
ride on a hard one to scratch and
Dempsey had bad luck his horse
running into the fence and stop
ped but by what he did do showed
that he came from a country
where horses can pitch. The
burrow race vas won by the little
Chase boy and Eddie Curtis took
second. The relay race was fast
and for the first mile the crowd
was wild al it was pretty close but
after that "Speck" took the lead
and made a clean winning for the
saddle. The race was between
Frank Bailey and John Almeda
who rode for Don McPhail.
Little Joe" won the half mile
race and "Wolf' took second.
The wind up of the races was
the 1 mile race. Four euteries.
"Billy Mason" took first easy
and a sorrel horse took second.
This wound up the afternoon
program.
AT night the Eastern Star enter
tainment drew an immense crowd
to Jensen hall, where an addition
of 200 opera chairs made most
comfortable seating capacity, and
the dance was given after the en-
tertainment was over. On the is-
land the Elks band discoursed
, 1907-08-29

sweet music for the dancers who
occupied the pavilion. The Nov.
city Show company, in a large
tent, 4Ox65 feet, gave a splendid
moving picture show to q large
audience. The island was lighted
up with a big arc light, besides
numerous smaller lights. 1t was
like a land of enchantment.
The second day opened up
bright and clear and the crowds
began to throng the streets
early and by the time the
speaking took place on the island
every body was on deck. The
special train from Rawlins came
in at $50 and brought in a big
load of pleasure seekers. The
speaking by Senator Clark and
Congressman Mondell were heard
by a large crowd who were enth-
usiastic over both speeches. Sen.
Clark's talk was on our long and
tegis wait for the iron horse and
complimented the Pioneers and
their wives for making posi-
BILE the civelization of today.
For lack of space we are unable
to do either of the speakers just
ice or full credit for their fine
speaking or to give at length eth
er of the speeches.
At one O'Clock the crowd assem-
bled at the track and about two
O'Clock the first race was pulled
off This was a ladies' race and
Miss Myrtle Ivy on Mormon
Maid" won first and Mrs. Mamie
Cluff took second.
The last half of the buckine
contest was the next event and
the only poor one on the prog ram.
The judges decided to make the
riders pull off their spurs which
was a very bad move owing to the
fact that the horses wouldn't Jump
without being scratched. Only
two of the first days riders rode
and both horses failed to put up a
show, one failed to buck at all
and the other only made a few
jumps and then broke into a run.
The decision on the riding was
left TO the two riders-Hugh
Clark and Frank Wilcox-to de-
eide which should take the saddle
resulting in Clark taking the sad
die and giving Wilcox 1926 and the
second money which was $50.
The relay race was run by L. G.
Nelson and Charlie McPhail and
was a pretty close race all the way
thru. Nelson took first and Nc
Phail second.
The I mile novelty race was in
teresting. The horses walked the
first mile, troted the next / mile
and ran the last mile. Bret
Bailey won first money in all
three purses and Frank Mulkey
took all second money.
In the mile COW pony race
Webster on ben" took first
money and Freeman Cook took
second.
The 3 running novelty race was
a good one and had three entries.
BILLY Mason" owned by Hun
tiers, "Ragalong' owned by Amos
Wilcox, "Turk" owned by Axel
Carlson. This race had money at
every ] pole, there being no Sec
ond money. "Billy Mason" took
all the money with "Rags'' a close
second on the last J.. This wound
up the races for the day.
At $50 o'clock a boxing exibi-
ton on big island took place be-
tween Charlie Williams and Jas.
Mcdonald of Denver which went
Is rounds of furious fighting and
was decided a draw between the
men by referee Irwin. This fight
was a good one and those who saw

WEAPONS MAY Be CARRIED
Judge Diehl Decides That Evil Intent
Must Be Shown for Having
Firearms.

Judge c. B. Diehl yesterday afternoon
defined the ordinance against carrying
concealed weapons in two decisions which
he handed down. BY the judges opinion
the ordinance does not prohibit the car
r-ing of concealed weapons except when
they are carried for some evil purpose.
The case against ID. b. Leys0n. charged
With carrying concealed weapons was dis
missed by this decision. which sustained
the objection of Judge MarioneauX to the
complaint. which did not allege an evil in
tent The objection of Attorney William
Newton to the evidence in the case against
William Malo. charged with a similar Of
Tense. was overruled. the judge holding
that the ordinance was constitutional and
was not antagonistic to the provision of
the state constitution giving citizens the
right to bear arms for the protection Of
life and property.
