MANAGER OF THE OVERLAND Co.
REALS COMPANY NEGoTiATES
WITH CHICAGO CONCERN.
surrell Engineering and Construction
Company Will Begin Collecting
Material and Doing Work Without
Delay-Company Owns FIGURING
Mill and Modern Machinery.

A. w. Augspurger of the Overland
Ceceals company returned this morn
ing from Chicago and Omaha, where
he had been for several days on bust
ness for the Overland company and
the Laramie Development company.
He came direct from Omaha to this
city and reported some severe wealth
err at Omaha and points east, where
continued rains have done much 70
retard the progress of farm work.
Elevator Contract.
While at Chicago Mr.. Augspurger
awarded the contract for the erection
of a grain elevator here to the Burrell
Engineering and Construction COM
pany. to cost about SIS 900, and work
will start as soon as the contracting
company can collect the material and
get it on the ground. The building
will adjoin the mill property, on Sec
ond street, which the Overland com
pany recently purchased, a contract
having been awarded for machinery
to fully equip the plant for the manu-
facture of breadstuffs and kindred
products.
Looking for Bumper Crop.
The elevator building will be SO by
IS feet and 80 feet high, with a ca
pacity for $4,000 bushels of wheat. 1t
will be fitted with modern machinery
for handling grain, which will be load
ed direct from the wagons to the ele-
vator and thence to the mill or cars
as may be desired. The plan is to
have the elevator and mill in shape
for the commencement of work fol-
lowing the harvesting of the grain
crop of this season. The rains of Sat
urday and Sunday, farmers say. have
guaranteed a splendid harvest and an
early threshing season.

SCORE WAS TIED
WHEN GAME CALLED.


WHEN GAME CALLED.
The baseball game last Saturday af-
ternoon, between the team from Chey-
enne and the varsity nine, resulted
in the score of l to l after five in
nings of hard playing, the game hav-
ing been called after five inning had
been played on account of rain. The
game was not very enjoyable from
the spectators standpoint, as the
drizzling rain made all but the partic-
ipants hover under shelter. Neverthe-
less, it was very interesting and the
varsity boys deserve much credit on
their ball playing, as the Cheyenne
boys are considered the best in south
ern Wyoming. The batteries were
King and Ed Shoels for Cheyenne and
Brown and Akeson for the university.
The locals secured four hits and Chey-
enne one. Up to the time the game
was called the home boys seemed to
have all the best of the argument.
The third of the series will be played
in Cheyenne.

Mr.. Reimer, who is taking the pre-

a railroad club here, will visit Chey-
enne in a few days and confer with
officials of the division concerning the
erection of a building for a perma-
nent home for the club here. The rail-
road company has so far taken quite
an interest in these railroad clubs,
and Mr.. Reimer and those associated
with him hope to enlist their aid in
the Laramie project. The club is still
growing and railroad men are adding
their m as they are encountered.

was washed away and service to the
west has been abandoned. In the city

are closed down. A section of the
Santa Fe railroad bridge has gone
down and traffic over this line is dis.

This afternoon the Trinity became a
raging flood. Hundreds of people were
caught in the lowlands and are being
taken off in boats. 1t is reported that
a number were drowned. From the
banks of the stream men can be seen
climbing to trees and roofs. The city
is without water.

We're laid to the nearby stream and
water was pumped from there. The

Will start the Mill.

1t is the accepted belief now, both
among local officials and employees of
the rolling mill, that the mill will be
started in full force about the first OF
July. There is every indication of a
return to the activity of last summer
about that time, both in the operating
and manufacturing departments. The
mill is now in excellent shape, con-
siderable repairing having been done
during the enforced closing of the
plant.
