An extra drill tonight at 7 sharp

Going to church Sunday was a pr..t-
ty tough change for some OF the
heather soldiers and said heather sol.
diers kicked like . twO-year-old
mule with q humble bee chewing its
tail off. Kicking did no good. tho,
and as the Memorial sermon was a
peach, they enjoyed themselves much
more than at the common weekday
drills.
The governor has issued orders for
the blue uniforms to be sent in. A
new khaki will soon arrive to take its
place.
A soldier jumped onto us with all
four feet the other day for saying
stuff about him in this column. OF
course we apologiZed for it in a'hum-
bic way, and told him we would not
have put it in if we had known
1t would make him mad, etc., ETC.,
in other words we said Jaw, go
eat q lizard. You make me SICK
The yellow campaign shoes are be.
ing shipped in at Schneider & Nelson
and can be gotten for $3.l5, the
wholesale price. Soldiers are sup
poss ID to take that money out of their
own pants.
The question mostly quarreled over
Tuesday was whether to wear the
blue uniforms on Memorial day or
the khaki. The captain had re-
ceived orders from the governor to
wear the khaki, but q few soldiers
raised a fuss, as they wanted the
blue. They tried to say that the
blue fitted better and gee whiz, they
even limited that 1t looked better.
Old Cap refused to be stuffed, tho,
and ordered the khaki uniforms to be
worn tomorrow.
Soldiers who are members of Com.
pany 3D." S. D n. g., 4th Infantry,
u. S. A., are requested to come to the
armOry at 9 o'clock on Decoration day
with their khaki uniforms to get
ready for the grand 10 o'clock parade.

ious company is Private Whittier.
Welcome. old socks, make yourself

HAVE VACUUM SYSTEM
Arrangements Made to Launch the
Business at Once.-LOcal
Man in Charge

President John w. Schroeder of
the Vacuum Cleaner Company of
Colorado and Utah, who has been a
guest at the St. Regis hotel for the
past few days, announces that the
company has decided to install the
service. in Grand Junction, and,
through the enterprise and push of
Mr.. Victor a. Tharp of Grand juno
tion, deal was closed today and a
portable wagon equipment will be
at work in this city within the next
two weeks.
The system of vacuum cleaning Is
nowsin use in all the larger cities of
the east and west, and every house
can be cleaned in few hours with
out the removal of anything.
A wagon Is sent to the house and
two lines of hose are run into the
building, the engine started, and ev-
cry particle of dust and dirt is sucked
out of the carpets and furniture to
the alright receptacles in the wagon.
The service is quick and effective,
and what usually took a week to per-
form Is now done in few hours.
Mr.. Tharp says he will be ready to
book orders for house cleaning by
this system in a few days. and there
is no doubt but what the citizens OF
Grand Junction will reward his en-
terprise by keeping him busy.

WILL GLENwooD GO Dry

Glenwood Avalanche: Wet or dry
is question that is going to be
placed before the voters of Glen
wood at the April election.
A petition has been circulated dur
ing the past few days asking for
signers that the matter of ousting
the saloons might be put to vote
of the people, and this petition was
filed with the city clerk Saturday
afternoon by the committee having
the matter in charge.
According to the number of votes
cast in each precinct at the last
town election. the petitioners have
the needed 40 per cent to call for the
election. In the west precinct there
were 81 votes cast, thus making it
necessary to secure 81 signatures to
the petition, and this document as
filed shows that &c signers were OBJ
tanned. In the east precinct SO votes
were cast, thus requiring 80 signers,
and the petition contains 43 names
AS the law reads, a majority of
the votes cast on the proposition
must be-; against the saloons before
the same can be knocked out. All
legal voters are entitled to vote on
the question. 81.

surrounding the death. 1t will be
remembered that Bowen had been
here only short time when he died.
He was en- route to California to join
his wife when his condition became
serious,' and. before his wife could
be notified and advised to come to
his bedside, he had passed away. It
seems that Mr.. Bowen was unable to
talk after his condition became 80
grave and was unable to tell where
his wife could be reached by wire.
Delayed letters also had much to do
with the delay in Mrs. Bowen reach
ing the city. The wife,is profess

over the death of her husband IN q
strange city and with her unable to
be present. Mrs. Bowen will be in
