VIII Establish s.,..y in Pueblo.

Geo A Nidy, for many years past
a resident of this city, left last We'd
nesday. accompanied by his family,
for Pueblo where he will locate per-
manently. Mr.. Nidy has made ar
rangements to establish nursery
and seedhouse in Pueblo. As there
is no business enterprise of that
character in that city. Mr.. Nidy
ought to do well. having had fifteen
years experience in that particular
line. He has developed fine trade
up and down the Arkansas Valley,
on both sides of Pueblo, and believes
that it will be a more central loca-
tion for him. He has the best
wishes of a host of friends in La
Junta for success in his new enter
prise.

on For me.,ee.

J. B. Manly. the well-known
sheep man. left last Saturday night
for Mexico to make his annual pur-
chases. This year he contemplates
buying 81 900 head and will bring
them at once to this county. An
idea of the extensive operations be-
ing carried on by Mr.. Manly may
be gathered from the fact that it
costs him S37, 800 in duty to bring
the sheep into the United States.
Last year Mr.. Manly handled l04 600
head ard it is probable that he will
get that many again this year be-
fore the season is over. The out
look for a good range is excellent
this year. the late spring rains hav-
ing left the ground moist and fer
tile. Trinidad Advertiser.

CITY COUNCIL.
Prolonged Session Of the City Fathers
and Much Business Transacted.

There was a midnight session of
the city council last Monday night.
the most important part of which 10
a considerable majority of the out
side world was allowing bills. of
which there were an unusual number.
The disputed accounts of a. NJ. o.
birn, the water works contractor,
many of which have been hanging
fire since last December. also came
up for consideration. but the coun-
Gil was unable to do anything with
them definitely. Mr.. Ozbirn claims
that his sub-contractors are liable
for some Of the bills. and that the
city is liable for others. 1t leaves
the bills in such a jumbled up mess
that no one seems able to make
heads or tails out Of them. The city
will probably be up against law
suit before the matter is ended, and
we heard one man threaten this
week to tie the water works up and
close them down unless his account
was settled at once or sooner.
Hizzonor. George Barr. the mayor.
presided, and with the exception of
Alderman Draper. all of the men,
bers were present. A synopsis of
the proceedings is as follows:
The petition for sidewalk on the
west side of Colorado avenue. from
the kindergarten building to Tenth
street, was granted.
There was also a petition, signed
by every property owner, for side
walk on the west side of Belleview
avenue from Seventh to Tenth
street. and another from the prop
erty owners on the east side of Car
son avenue. between Eighth and
Ninth street.
The application of E. w. Pierce
for building permit to erect a
brick building. 23x40 feet, in the
rear of the Swastika candy kitchen,
was granted.
The application of w. E. Andrews
for a permit to erect corrugated
iron building. 13xl3 feet. in the rear
of the Palace Drug Store. to be
used by the Colorado Telephone
Company for coal house, was de-
MED for the reason that corrugated
iron structures are barred inside Of
the fire limits.
On motion the city printing was
equally divided between the LA
JuNTA TRIBUNE and the Otero Coun-
ty Democrat.
The report of City Marshal Wein-
exc for the period commencing
April 18th and ending May lst. two
weeks, showing cash fines to the
amount of $3.50. 40. caused the may
or and all of the aldermen to sit up
and take notice. There were twen-
ty-two arrests during this period,
and the total fines amounted to
S5l1.90. OF this amount $780, 40
was cash, and the balance. slsl.50.
was worked out on the streets. If
Gus keeps this pace up for the re
mainder of his term the city will
have monev to burn.
The report Of Police Magistrate
Clark for the month Of April was as

table. The salary Of the position at
the present time is $50 per month.

An ordinance. submitted by the
Ministerial Alliance. closing every
thing up in La Junta on the Sab
bath day. and forbidding Sunday
baseball and kindred sports. was re-
ferred to the ordinance and license
committee. where it ought to remain
for an indefinite period.
The petition of c. r. Dodds. ct al.
requesting the council to grade
Third street east Of CimarroE av-
enue to Lewis avenue in the Bradish
addition. was referred to the street
and alley committee and the city en-
gineer for investigation. The grad
ing Of this street will necessitate a
ten foot cut north Of the hospital
grounds. but it is something that
will have to be done eventually and
the sooner the quicker.
The ordinance authorizing the
park bond issue was placed on its
final reading and ordered published.
K. G.. Dalton, owner of the Ohio
addition, submitted proposition by
the terms of which he agrees to pay
interest on the amount necessary to
be expended By the city in installing
water mains on all the streets in
that addition until such time as the !

RELEASED FROM A MASS OF COAL.
Remarkable Discovery nade by Late
ANTHONY Reese in 4 Carton Time.

The lamented Anthony Reese had
one remarkable experience during
his coal mining days. When he was
young man he worked in a mine near
Barton, and one day while digging coal
mile under ground his pick cut into
small pocket in the coal, and he was
astonished to see two bats fly out of the
hole and circle around the mine. Mr..
Reese caught the bats and took them
home. The next day one was gone and
strange to say, found its way back to
the mine, where it was recaptured.
The bats lived only few days and
were sent to the Smithsonian Institute
where they were pronounced ''antedil-
uvian bats" the claim being made that
they had escaped the deluge. The in
cident was given much space in the
newspapers and magazines at that
time, and John w. Young, the present
clerk of the county court, who lived at
that time near where the bats were
found, says that the imprint of the bats
were in the pocket that had encased
them.
The bats were much larger and of
different color from the bats of the pres
ent day. Mr.. Reese often talked of the
strange incident in his life, and was
proud of the fact that he was once
coal digger and discovered the only
antediluvian animals even seen alive by
modernmortals. Georges Creek Press.

Mrs. j. H. Freeland and Mrs. John

Oakland this morning shopping.
Mr.. A. V. Cuppett, a popular sales
man in the Loar & Poe store, had as
his guests for few hours last evening
his father, Mr.. Thos. H. Cuppet, his
brother, Mr.. H. N. Cuppett and Rev.
and Mrs. J. H. Enlow all from Oakland
and vicinity. Mrs. Enlow is a sister to
Mr.. Cuppett. They had all been to

of learning Mr.. H. n Cuppett is stud

There are too many boys and girls in
the country and city, more in the latter
than the former, who are prone to look
upon work as beneath them. There are
thousands of them on the threshold of
maturity who retain the same views and
habits which found encouragement in
their earlier years. What becomes of
this class of people? Some of them
awaken and after desperate struggle
overcome the habit and learn to work,
to save, and to prepare for the inevita-
bic rainy day. Many of them however,
drift and drift until they become ac-
ceptable recruits in the hobo army.
Then they speedily reach the conclusion
that things are mighty unequal in this
world; that the advantages are all with
the rich, and that poor man has no
show.
