Ball Game

The game last Sunday between the
Ebert reds and the Elizabeth aggrega-
tion, played on the grounds of the latter,
demonstrates that, while the Elizabeth
bunch might possibly beat our boys in
game OF pinochle, when it comes to
the national game there is nothing to
it.
The inability of the Elizabeth
pitcher to get the ball over the plate in
the opening innings of the game and
good hard hitting all the way through
on the part OF the reds, was responsible
for the Elbert runs. 1t looked like a
shutout game for Elizabeth up to the
third inning when with two down and
two strikes on the man up, Elberts
catcher failed to hold the third strike,
giving the gray and blues the opportun-
ity to make the only two runs they OBJ
tained during the game. The Elbert's
played an all around good game. only a
couple oferro rs being chargeable to them
during the whole fiesta. Batteries

Obituary

Lewis Greene Jewell was born in Davis
county, Kentucky, November 16, 1853.
In 1878 he married Betty Snyder, OF
Metcalf county, Kentucky, who, with
five children, still survive him. Thev
resided in Kentucky until 1892, when
Mrs. JEWELS health compelled change,
and they moved to Colorado, locating
near Hilltop. From there they moved
to Elbert, where they have lived until
Mr.. JEWELS death. Two of the children
live in California and three are residents
of Ebert. Lloyd Jewell, Of Denver, is
the only other relative in this state.
In Lewis Jewell the Divide country
lost one of its best known citizens, as he
had done work all over this section with
the threshing outfit of which he was the
owner. He was shrewd horseman, and
had probably handled more horses than
any man in the county. He was gen
ial, good hearted man, generous to a
fault, liberal to friend in need, and as
such will long be remembered. His
maker accorded him painless demise,
as he passed away without recovering
consciousness.
Mr.. Jewell was a member in good
standing OF the Woodmen lodge at Eliz-
abeth and carried $1,000 insurance in
that order.
The funeral services were held yester-
day at the Presbyterian church and we're
attended by a large crowd. Rev. Press
ley OF Elizabeth conducted the services,
The family have the heartfelt sympa-
thy of The Tribune and their many
friends in their great bereavement.
The Elbert County tribune., 1908-06-11

F. A. Dotson was visitor in Pueblo
last week, in attendance at the hearing
Of the contest OF the late Mrs. Bowen's
will. Under the terms OF the will Mr..
Dotson's sister. Mrs. A. H. Chapman
and Mrs. E. G. Elliott OF Del Norte re-
ce'ved the bulk Of the estate, while Mrs.
Bowen's relatives were accorded only a
small legacy each. The contest was
made on the ground that Mrs. Bowen
had been unduly influenced in the
making Of the instrument and the court
was asked to set it aside. However,
when the case came to a hearing before
Judge Riser Of the district court, it was
clearly shown that Mrs. Bowen, at the
time the will was written, was Of per-
fectly sound mind and quite capable Of
disposing Of the estate as best suited her.
The Tribune extends its congratulations
to Mrs. Chapman and Mrs. Elliott on
the outcome Of the case.

NEW COINS RECEIVED
Gold Pieces Are Unique and in
Great Favor With
Bankers.
THE MOTTO is RESTORED.

| Local numismatists and bank EN-.
ployes are unit in rejoicing over the
new $3.50 and $500 gold coins, small
consignment of which have been re-
eeived by the banks of this city fresh
from the minis at Philadelphia, Den
yer and San Francisco. The purpose
of the new coins is to restore the mot
to I'm God We Trust and to make it
possible for the coins to be stacked
with convenience. Both purposes
have been accomplished
The design of the coin minted about
two years ago, which raised such a
hue and cry, has been abandoned en-
tirely. The eagle, whose heavily
feathered legs resembled trousers, has
been modified and drawn true to life.
The Indian head has also come in for
improvement and has been made to
resemble real Indian. All designs
instead of being in relief are sunk in
to the coin like a cameo. The effect
is much more artistic and will render
the coin more durable
On the eagle side of the coin in a
semi-circle at the top are the words
United States of America, while I'M
der the feet of the eagle is the date of
the mintage. Above one wing are the
words e Pluribus >unum," and above
the other, higher up, I'm God We
Trust On the opposite side is
carefully modelled Indian head sur
rounded by twelve stars and the de-
nomination of the coins value. The
edges of the $3.50 and the $500 de-
nomination coins are milled with the
usual straight line, while the $1,000
coins have stars around the edge. The
new coins are not yet in general cir
culation in this city. the supply at the
present time being limited.

Although Mr.. Gillian has been fol
several years writing for the leadins

AS usual Mr.. Gillian does not take
this splendid literary contribution Of
his seriously. He asks the pardon oil
the great American public for his
presumption" and offers a laughable
excuse for his 'temerity." Why he
should feel called upon to apologize
for issuing such book will cause his
many local friends to wonder when
they read it.

psalming for a recreation" says the
famous Richmond poet-humorist
"once had it in for a friend of his,
and wondered how he would get even.
Then thought came to David. and
he gritted his teeth and said he wish

That would fix him.
