For Mrs. Mcdonald.

Mrs. P. W. Allen was the hostess
of a delightful afternoon party Wed.
nesday in honor of Mrs. Ed McDon-
aid of Peoria, III who was formerly
resident Of Greeley and will be re-
membered as Miss Kate Stevens.
The guests included the members of
the Saturday Afternoon club, Of
which the honor guest was also a
member before her departure east.
Aside from the club members there
we're fifteen others who enjoyed Mrs.
Aliens hospitality.
The ladies brought thimbles and
the hostess furnished the work,
which proved to be carpet rags to
sew. The guests we're divided in
groups of ten and the ten whose ball
was the heaviest won the prize, a
box of candy.
Tempting refreshments were served
by the hostess and the afternoon was
thoroughly enjoyed by those present.

Watkins Is Held.

Happy Rill' Watkins, who Is
charged with the murder of Frank
Marx, the old German hermit, "hc
was murdered in his cabin six miles
vest of here about three weeks ago,
was given his preliminary hearing
before Justice Stevens Monday lore
noon. Watkins was bound over &c
the November term Of the district
court, but permitted bail in the sum
Of 81, 500, If he could furnish this.
The evidence upon which watkins
is held is largely circumstantial' al
though some of this is exceedingly
damaging. Very little of the testi-
m0ny was brought out at the pre-
liminary as Watkins had no attorney
and has no money with which to en-
gage one. The court will therefore
have to appoint somebody to deleho
the prisoner when the case comes up
for trial.

ODD MEETING
TWO MEN HERE OF PECUL-
lar MUTUAL INTEREST
w. h. Edwards and David
Welsh, Both Grand Canon
Men, Have Chance Meet
ing After Years

A few days ago when w. H. Ed.
wards, manager of the Greeley ice
plant, was icing some refrigerator
cars stranger who was Watching
the process with interest finally en-
gagged in conversation with Mr.. Ed
wards with the result that they dis
covered they had mutual interests of
novel nature. Mr.. Edwards, 1t
will be remem bered. Is one Of the
very few men who ever went through
the Grand Canon of the Colorado
river aud lived to tell about It..
About twenty years ago he vent
through the canon with the r. B.
Stanton party looking for possible
route for a railroad, The party
went clear to the Gulf of California
and then had some Indians take their
remaining boats back $50 miles to
Yuma, where the boats were sold
One OF these boats, named the Bon
ME Jeane by Mr.. Stanton after his
wife, was sold among others. The
man who bought the boat was David
Welsh, the man whom Mr.. Edwards
met the other day while icing cars.
Mr.. Welsh was here to place his
family where the children could
have the advantage of good schools
while he is In Nevada where he las
valuable mining claims. Shortly
after the Stanton party had passed
Ithroukh the canon NJ welsh! sud
patry came down from . point known
as The Needles to Yuma, on pros
pecting trip. They went by raft
part OF the way, or until they were
ship wrecked, then they walked it
the rest of The way to Yuma. 1t
was here that they bought one OF the
Stanton boats. The description
given of the boat by Mr.. Welsh tai
lied so exactly with the knowledge
that Mr.. Edwards had of the craft
that there is no doubt that 1t was
the same one.
Mr.. Welsh formerly lived at Grip
pie Creek where E. G. Mckinney of
this city knew him we'll. He has
been prospector for many years and
is intimately acquainted with all the
states and territories of the south
west.

Secretly Wed.

Eaton society circles were sur
prised last week by the announces
ment that Mrs. Fannie Thompson, 3
wealthy and well-known widow. resi-
dent there for many years, had become
the bride Of Michael Jones Of Eaton
more than month ago at HALEY,
Ida. So we'll had the couple kept
their secret and so little had they
been seen together that not even
their most intimate friends had an
inklipg of the wedding until few
days ago relative dropped the word
which gave the clue.
More as joke on their friends
than for other reasons did the couple
go by different routes and at different
times to the home of the groom's sis
ter in Idaho, where the ceremony
was performed. the bride returning
to Salt Lake to conclude visit and

WAS HE ROBBED?
Question Now Up to Attorney
Charley Tew

The mystery during the past week
has been, was Charley Tew held up
and robbed of S35 right In front Of
his own home one evening last week ?
The matter has been talked when
ever two men met on the street. but
always the talk ended In the same
uncertainty. Nobody seemed to
know. OF course, the mystery could
easily have been solved had somebody
asked Charley about 1t, but appar-
emily nobody wanted to bring GER
tainty out of the delightful mystery.
Even the reporters would suddenly
turn in some other direction when
they saw the lawyer coming, for fear
that he would spoil possible story.
So even they are in the same bliss
ful state of suspense.
Some have 1t that 1t was no hold
up at all, but just some client OF
Charley's getting back his fee, and
that is why Charley didn't holler
for the police. Others are of the
opinion that Charley didn't want it
to get out that he had at one time
been worth S35.
So there we are, mystery all
around.
But now that we have had our
story, IL Charley cares to explain

however, caught up with it again
and the second time the moose held.
But by this time the horse Morrison
was riding had become thoroughly
frightened and ran for three or four
miles without the rider being able to

our BOYS WINNERS
First Football Game Greeley O.
CHEYENNE o

Saturday afternoon in the presence
of a fairly large crowd the Greeley
and Cheyenne high schools opened
the football season with an interest
ing game. For the first time IN
their football history Greeley scored
a victory against Cheyenne and that
ON Cheyenne's own grounds. The
score of 6 to 0 for twenty-five minute
halves Is an Indication that the game
was not at all one-sided and when
tbe team work of Cheyenne has been
rounded into better form 1t will be a
hard team to beat. The game be-
tween Cheyenne and Greeley which
will be PLAYED on Meeker held NOV
should prove one OF the most inter
esting of the series.

Big Potato Yield.

Chas. Il. Meyer, who lives in the
Olive Branch district, has a smile
that will not come of. A few days
ago he dug three aud half acres of
spuds which yielded 624 sacks, which
he sold when spuds were bringing 90
cents. The check which he received
read good for 1912. And Charley
says those spuds came from the poor
est part Of the patch. As these
averaged lis pounds to the sack it
was equivalent to 342 bushels to the
acre. Wonder what some of our
eastern friends will think of that p

The following is an extract from
the Cheyenne Daily Leader of Oct. 6:
I'm struggle that was nip and
tuck throughout the entire fifty
minutes of play the Cheyenne high
school football team went down to
defeat before the husky lads from
the Greeley high school. II was one
OF those heartrending contests that
keeps the spectator up on his toes
lest the result be changed by some
sudden turn of fortune.
1.-THE score that proved to be the
only one Of the game came late in
the first half. Greeley, by series
Of short line plays and chiefly by
long punts. got the ball down to
Cheyenne's twelve yard line. Here
q piece of poor headwork on the part
Of the local quarter gave Greeley her
chance to get the score that proved
enough to win the game.
"a long punt to the twelve yard
| line Of the home team left the ball
| in Cheyenne's possession. Though
dangerously near the goal everything
still looked rosy for Storey's sure
boot was working In good order. On
the third down, strange to say, the
local quarter called for forward
pass Whist went the ball toward
the spot where the local end was
supposed to ba ready to catch IT..
Too late, alas, the ball fell on the
ground without being touched.
Nothing could come from this but
loss of the ball by Cheyenne, as the
rules specifically say that If an at

Greeley on Cbeyenne's twelve yarc
line. Spurred on by the golden op
portunity to score the Greeley lads
in two plays carried the ball through
the line for touchdown. An easy
goal was kicked.
Though it may be said that Gree
ley scored by a whim Of fortune, II
Justice to them, 1t must be said that
they outplayed the local boys
Their team work was vastly better
they tackled more surely and theil
punting was for longer distances.
Furthermore, their backs worked In
unison and came against the line
three strong at every play.
For Greeley the stars were AT
kinson, Conner and Hall, the back
field trio. They played together like
machine, reminding one OF sea-
soned college players. They started
off like a shot from crouching posi-
tion, each one a live factor in the
play. This machine-like unison
showed strikingly in the first hall
when the twelve coveted yards lay
bet ween them and the goal posts. y
