The GypSieS Skid0Oed

A party Of gypsies camped in the
lane south of town furnished spice
of excitement to some of Glenwood's 8
enterprising citizens this week The
dusky skinned wanderers had been in
the habit of loosing their horses and
allowing them to run at large and
browse on the luxurious pasture of
neighboring ranches. The city mar.
shal cautioned them in regard TO the
error of their ways and advised them
to tie their animals up. The advice
was regarded as long as the marshal
was in sight, but just as soon as his
body disappeared over the horizon the
horses we're again given their liberty.
Fellow townsman Frank Hayes
viswed their actions with considera-
BILE displeasure. Taking down his
trusty Winchester he hied himself
hither to the gypsy camp and extended
them warm invitation to meander
on to the next county. One dark
skinned citizen, bolder and more fero-
cious than the rest, got down his gun
and Frank ducked behind the biggest
fence post in sight. The gun bluff
failed to work, but fusillade of
maledictions at the top of Hayes stem f.
torian voice accomplished the desired
result and the last heard OF the gyp.

line and were still running

complimentary talks. Mayor Seely of
Canon City stated that the meeting
had been the largest and most satistac-
tory in years and attributed it to
"Glenwood Springs with its natural
attractions and cordial people. "
President Steadman recommended the
selection of this town for the next ses-
sion and said, The strongest card /
have to play is the name of Glenwood
Springs. The motion was put by Mr..
Seely of Canon City and carried unan-
imously. as was also motion to make
w. S. Parkison of Glenwood, local
secretary for next year.
Most of the visitors are leaving
this morning for their homes, vowipg
to return next year and make that
convention the largest and best in the
history of the Colorado State Pharma-
ceutical association.

NOT GUILTY
OF CONTEMPT
Such is the Order of Judge Shumate
IN Case Heard in GlenwOOd
this Week

What for time threatened to
prove rather sensational proceeding
in the district coult this week ended
very quietly and devoid of unusual
interest when the contempt order is
sued by the court against Mary F.
Lathrop, C. W. Darrow and H. R.
Kamm was dismissed and contemnors
purged of contempt.
Some months ago action was brought
by the First National bank of Glen
wood against the Elk Creek Cattle
company and c. o. Pierson for the ap-
pointment of a receiver, the complaint
alleging mismanagement of the bust
ness.
H. r. Kamm was appointed az such
receiver, and later was instructed by
order of court to sell the property in
payment of the debts.
Shortly after this Miss Mary F.
Lathrop, a Denver attorney, repre-.
senting friends of G. o. Pierson, pro-
ceeded to buy up all the claims
against the defendant company and
was substituted as plaintiff.
Upon her representation that all
debts would be paid and that no sale
of the property would be necessary Mr.
barrow, as counsel for the receiver
advised Mr.. Kamm to temporarily
abandon the sale which mad been ad-
vertised. This was done and some
time afterwards the receiver made
report to the court showing, among
other things, the abandonment of
the sale and the reason therefor.
Thereupon Judge Shumate, who had
not been consulted in the matter, tax
ing the ground that the sale should not
have been abandoned without his con-
sent, cited the parties above named to
appear before him and show cause
why they should not be punished for
contempt.
Miss Lathrop appeared in person
and C. W. Darrow and Receiver
Kamm were represented by John D.
Fillmore, all filing verified answers
explaining their positions in the mat
ter, disavowing any intent to show
disrespect to the court or to disregard
its orders.
Judge Shumate stated from the
bench tnat he never had any idea
that any of the parties had intended
to show contempt or to disregard the
orders Of the court, but said there
seemed to have been misapprehen-
sion as to how far he had been ad-
vised of the situation, and after stat
ing what he considered to be the prop
or practice in such cases declared the
parties purged Of any contempt, and
the proceedings were dismissed. the
costs being taxed against Miss Lath-
rop.

has been edited by jerome Flannery.
the we'll known writer on the game,
and is very complete, both in illustra-
tons and text. The past season in the
United States has been covered very
thoroughly. the averages of the players
in the various associations being given,
together with pictures of leading teams
and players and the official rules. An
Interesting contribution by George
Wright of Boston is a reproduction Of
an invitation to the annual dinner of
the ST George Cricket club of New
York. held in 1S43, and the menu of
a dinner given by the same club in
honor of a visit from the Toronto club,
the journey from the latter place being
then quite an undertaking. large part
of the trip having to be accomplished
| by canal boat. A prominent feature of
the Guide that will be interesting to
lcricketers wherever located is the por-
( ton devoted to the game in England
containing a review of the year, rec
ords and official schedule for 1907.
