w. R. c. Notes.

Editor Tribune: A rather damp and
chilly party of ladies left your town on
the evening of May ID to attend the
twenty third annual convention of the
w. X. &. in the city of Colorado Springs.
In spite OF cold weather and high winds,
the attendance from all over the depart
ment was good and the convention was
a very harmonious one under the able
management of Mrs. James Cowie, our
department president, and her official
staff. Mrs. Clara w. Coulter of Green.
wood Corps No. %, of Canon City, was
elected president; Mrs Anna st. Clair of
Fort Collins was elected senior vice pres
ident, by acclamation; Mrs. Anna E.
Babbit of Denver, junior vice president
Mrs. Mary Hader, Cheyenne, Wyoming,
treasurer; Mrs. Nellie P. Weston, secre
tary. The next convention will be held
in Fort Collins.
The members OF the G.. A. X. and w
r. G.. and kindred orders were given a
trolley ride to the soda and iron springs
at Manitou, and. although Colorado
Springs is a dry" town, the party
brought back so many bottles OF the
sparkling soda water that they became
very hilarious and were as merry as a lot
of school boys and girls. In fact, the
four ladies who attended the convention
from Elbert county had a grand good
time.
Our president and your correspondent
had little extra work watching and
chaperoning the Lamb" and "Brownie,"
who were the young and giddy members
OF "de gang. Press Correspondent.

WILL BUILD Big
ELEVATOR IN EBERT
The Ebert Elevator Company In
corporated With a Paid Up
Capital Stock of Seven
Thousand Dollars.

The Elbert Elevator Company has
tiled articles of incorporation with the
secretary of state and the new company
is now doing business in Ebert The
officers OF the company are: w. A. All
baugh, president and general manager;
George W. Cannon, vice president and
treasurer; Charles w. Cannon, secre
tary. The capital stock is $1,000, fully
paid up. The company will deal in
grain and potatoes, farm machinery, We
hicles, lumber, coal feed, etc.
The company has purchased the block
Of ground west of the depot and north of
Gates new store building and in the near
future will commence work on a modern
twenty thousand bushel capacity grain
elevator to be built near the Colorado 4
Southern railway tracks. A feed mill
will be operated in connection with the
elevator. The company now has lumber
on the ground for an Office building to
be l6x24 feet and will lay the foundation
walls this week.
A gram elevator, such as the new com
pany intends building, is something the
town and country has long needed and
the Tribune predicts that it will make a
decided success of the undertaking. The
problem of handling the grain marketed
at Elbert became serious one last fall,
owing both to the immense crop grown
on the divide and the shortage of cars in
which to transport the grain. With a
twenty thousand bushel capacity elevat
or and the three large warehouses already
here, our grain men can handle all the
grain raised in the country tributary to
Ebert for years to come, and the town
will continue to be, as it has been since
grain was first grown for the market in
this country, the leading grain market
in the divide country.
The members of the new company are
all substantial citizens and business men
of experience. They have put their
money into this enterprise with the ex-
pectation of making it win, and the Tri-
bune wishes them unlimited success.

COUNTY SEAT.

Kiowa, May 22.-Sheriff Mcguire went
to Denver Tuesday to secure requisition
papers from the governor and will then
go to Dallas, Texas, to secure Sylvester
Craig, who is under arrest in that city
for the alleged murder of Harry Potts,
near Agate in this county.
On the oath of April, Potts, who resd
ed on a ranch six miles west of Agate,
went to Deer Trail and there, it is said,
met Craig, whom he engaged to work for
him. The two men drove to the ranch
home that evening. The following day
it is alleged, Craig was again seen in
Deer Trail, where he paid some debts,
at the same time displaying $500 or S40O
in bills.
He then left town, and it is said went
to Denver, where he was known to have
considerable money. From there he
went to Topeka, Kansas, and later to
Dallas, Texas, where he was arrested
after the body of Potts was found few
days ago.
The disappearance of Potts was not
noted until a few days ago, when neigh
boring ranchmen became alarmed over
the matter. G. b. Kruger went to the
Potts ranch and, after making long
search, found the body of Potts in the
well. Coroner Evans of Elizabeth was
notified and the body removed. The
skull had been fractured and there were
other marks of violence about the head
Further search revealed bloody ham
mer, which was doubtless the instrument
ed to do the deed.
An account book that showed Potts
had been the possessor of about the
amount of money Craig was said to
have, and the authorities began the
search which has resulted in Craig's ar
rest. An inquest was held last Tuesday,
but sealed verdict was returned which
has not been made public. Potts resid
ed alone on his ranch.
In the county court at Kiowa last
Thursday Bell Loper was granted a di-
