declares that, while some insurance

to him. Regarding his prospective ap-
pointment to this Office. or to any 9TH

Bransford Is silent. The list OF ap-

Silver Mounted Saddle.

Cheyenne, Wyo., June l, 1907.
The finest cowboy saddle w
manufactured in the west has
been ordered by the Union Paci-
fc Railroad company as it's prize
to the best rider at the Cheyenne
Frontier days celebration which
takes place at Cheyenne this year
on July 25, 26 and 81, This an
nual event is one that attracts the
most skillful riders and ropers
from all the states in the Rocky
mountain region and the prizes
won by the knights of the Lar
lat" are recognized as bearing be-
side their intrinsic value a sort of
diploma OF degree implying unus-
ual skill and courage. No one
will ever question the ability to
ride, the nerve to mount and the
pluck to stay ON the back of the
worst horse that the western plains
can produce.

Intended to Play Joke.

Many of the friends of Mr.. and
Mrs. Glenn T. Scott had intended
playing a joke on them after their
marriage. They had planed
stretching a rope across the bridge
approach and holding them up
but those who had been appoin-
ted to stretch the rope failed to
appear at the proper time and the
couple sailed out of town and con-
graduated each other on their es-
cape, but alas, not SO we'll did they
fare at their destination. About
$50 p. m. a number of friends
from the Chsrter Oak and adjac-
emit creek marched up to the
Spring House" and asked per
mission to enter, Glenn appeared
and prevailed on the crowd to
"call around some other night" as
they were not 'at home" to callers
for a few days, but the crowd had
come prepared for a dance and
dance they did until midnight.

Broke Leg Twice

o. H. McFadden, a coal wagon
driver for Frank Hunter, was
brought in Saturday with his left
leg broken in two places and DR..
Price was called to attend the in
jured man. 1t seems that he
dropped one of his lines and had
gotten down on the doubletrees to
pick it up and, slipping, fell under
the wagon and both wheels passed
over the left leg breaking it in
two places. After DR.. Price set
the leg he was much relieved and
at this time is doing nicely with
the hopes that he will soon be
around again.
After the accident occurred Nc
Fadden was unable to get back on
the wagon and the only assistance
he had was Francis Hunter an
eleven year old boy who loaded
him onto the wagon and then
drove the outfit 6 miles into town.
The little fellow deserves much
credit for his manly conduct.

the picture presented by the bride

sacred vow, will ever be remem-
bered by those present. After
congratulations all retired to the

had spread lunch. Those who
have dined at her table can ap-
preciate the delicacies there pro-
vided. At 3 p. m. the bride and
groom bid adieu and started for

sented by friends, who had arrived
to say farewell. frankie, as the
