Towne- lenocker.

Last Sunday afternoon at the
Presbyterian manse. Mr.. Clyde
Towne and Miss Alta Lenocker were
united in marriage, Rev. Conrad
Bluhm officiating.
Mr.. Towne has been in La Junta
less than a year. but has won to
himself many friends among the
sold constituency of the community.
He originally came from Iowa. and
is at present in the employ of the
Matt Daimler Company.
The bride is the eldest daughter
of Phil Lenocker, of the Holbrook
section, and is possessed of those
accomplishments which will add
charm to her domestic administra-
tons. Bride and groom were at
tended by FIVE accompanying couples,
and will make their future residence
in La Junta. Many good wishes
will attend the well-mated pair.

An excellent illustration of this
Sousa trait was furnished by aTeNas
town not long since. A storm of
unequalled fury, breaking forth just
one hour before his scheduled con-
cert. had a disastrous effect upon
the attendance. And quite reason
ably. The fact. though, that only a
limited number of persons was
present, had no effect upon Mr..
Sousa temper or the length of his
programme. Every number was
given exactly as announced, while
encores were delivered as generous
ly and graciously as before the
largest audience ever gathered in
the great Hippodrome, N. Y. Re-
suit was that leading citizens called
upon him after the concer. and COM
mended his course.
but that is no particular credit
to me. was Sousa's reply. You
/ don't suppose | would punish those
persons present because of few
empty seats, do you? hold my
work and my obligation to the audi
ences too sacred for such tactics.
Next time Mr.. Sousa appeared in
that town. he was given the largest
house ever known there, for some
how the public is fairer than the
individual, has fewer prejudices and
has striking ways of showing it:

Sousa and his band will be the at

La Junta tribune., 1907-11-09
Why seu.s Wears So Well.

Sousa never Furnishes an audience,
because, for example, furious rain
storm comes up uneXpt ctedly, and
naturaily keeps many persons away
at home who otherwise would have
attended his concerts. And this is
one OF the reasons why John Philip
Sousa wears from year to year-he
always plays fair with his audiences.

SUMMER is USHERED In GAYLY
WITH BRIGHT SUN AND BLUE SKIES

Spring has abdicated her throne and
now summer reigns supreme The calen-
dar and the man that makes up the al
manac are authority for the statement
that summer is here. She was ushered
in yesterday by the longest day in the
year
That there was no noticeable change in
the temperature is perhaps accountable
for the fact that there was not any no
ticeable emotion displayed over the formal
entrance Of the summer queen. Once yes
terday the mercury managed to mount to
80 degrees That was the high mark for
the first day of summer. During the rest
of the day il fluctuated around this mark
keeping within bounds so that there were
no complaints against the change of man
agement in the department of seasons.
But now that summer has arrived the
heads of the weather bureau promise that
real torrid weather is not far distant.
A thunderstorm was predicted for today,
due to the low pressure wave that has
been advancing upon Salt Lake for some
time. Following its course will come a
period of warm weather. Just how high
the mercury will creep, the wizards of
the weather refuse to say. They shake
tell"
All through the country the initial day
of summer was suspicious. Everywhere,
almost without exception, clear skies and
plenty Of warmth were present to greet
the new arrival. In Yuma a maximum of
1O2 was reached and the inhabitants of
that place looked at each other, wiped the
beads of Precipitation from their brows
and wondered whether they should be
thankful or not. Helena. Kansas City and
Oklahoma had slight rainfalls that served
to make more pleasant the day, but in

most places the first day of summer was
accompanied by skies that would gladden.
the heart of a June bride
Chicago continued to feel uncOmfOrt-
able in an atmosphere of 50 degrees and
its worthy citizens wondered if they had
not overdone their prayers for summer
weather. Chicago likes to have warm
weather. if 1t is not too warm, and il
likes cold weather. that is If it is not too
cold. New York City had real summer
garden weather for its first summer day,
IS degrees being the maximum, while the
persons that started for work early in the
morning thanked Providence for weather
that registered only sc degrees.
r. ]. Hyatt sank back in his chair after
looking over the reports and formed him
self as a committee of one to present his
name as applicant for a Carnegie
medal. He had given Salt Lake weather
that could not be improved upon and had
promised few thunder showers to settle
the dust. That was sufficient for one
days work

but it ought to be sufficient. But above
all things. remember that summer is
here
The thunder showers and cooler weather
will also visit Wyoming from the west
and will slowly gravitate toward the east
where the perspiring populace is waiting
for some relief
The high mark of 81 degrees was
reached shortly after o'clock in the af-
ternoon here. The lowest mark registered
during the day was at o'clock in the
morning, when 81 was all that was shown.
