THE RREcK1NR1paE WAY

To show the boosting spirit Of
the Woodmen and their desire to
make big success of the log roll
ing to be held in Glenwood July
1s, it is only necessary to mention
the action of Breckenridge Camp
No. 305, which proposes to pay
the railroad fare of its candidates
to Glenwood in order that they
may be initiated by the special
degree staff which will do the
work on that occasion.
The following paragraphs are
taken from circular letter sent
out by William Thomas, clerk of
the Breckenridge camp:
"The camp by unanimous vote
has agreed to pay the fare of all
candidates from Leadville to
Glenwood who are examined on
or before July II. Also to pay
the fare Breckenridge to Glen
wood for any neighbor who will
secure ten (1O) applicants and
have them examined; to pay the
fare Breckenridge to Leadville

MRS. THAYER CALLED
AWAY BY DEATH

Word was received in Glen
wood today of the death in Den
YER this morning Of Mrs. E. A.
Thayer, who lived here for five
years, during which time her hus-
band was proprietor Of the Hotel
Colorado. Death was caused by
cancer, and the end was not un-
expected.
Mrs. Thayer was brilliant.
gifted woman, and writer OF
more than ordinary ability. Sev.
eral books written by her had
large sales and her home was al
ways the meeting place of literary
men and women.
Mr.. Thayer was proprietor OF
the hotel from 1898 until 1903,
and while here he and his wife
made wide circle Of friends. She
was prominent socially, and was
loved for her many excellent
qualities.

psstatties Rscsipts, Shown
h Increase in Salaries,
Proves This Fact
TOWN IS FLouRIsH|Ne

Several days ago the Post
printed list Of postofices whose
business had justified the depart
ment in making an increase in the
salaries of the postmasters.
Among them was Glenwood, and
Mr.. Thorson's salary was raised
800 a year.
A glance through the complete
list brings out some interesting
facts, and shows that as rule
the towns where mining is the
principal business have suffered a
decline, i. e., the salary of the
postmaster was cut, whereas when
agricultural pursuits have been
the mainstay Of the section, sal
aries have been increased.
Another interesting fact is that
on the whole, the western
slope shows a large gain in bust
ness, while the eastern slope has
declined.
"There is no truer criterion Of
city's prosperity than its post
Office receipts, was the statement
of Postmaster Thorson this morn
ing. "The increase in local bust
ness should be particularly graft
flying to the community because
some attributed our previous in
crease to the fact that Shoshone
was sending its mail through the
local office. Within the past year,
however. it has had postoffice of
it's own, yet our business has in
creased.
eff we can increase our re-
ceipts $500 over and above what
they were last year, we can inau-
gurate a carrier service, some
thing l am very desirous of DO
ing. We wouiG probably have
two to begin with, and this is a
step / should like to see taken.
With reference to the cramped
quarters and insufficient boxes, he
said:
81 realize that we need more
room, and need it badly. l have
taken it up with the department,
which, however, seems disinclined
to move in the matter.
Speaking Of boxes, / am fully
convinced that we could use a
hundred more without the least
trouble, for the demand is far in
excess Of the supply, and has been
for months. If we could place the
additional boxes the revenue from
them would have a material effect
in swelling our gross receipts for
the year."
The Glenwood post., 1908-06-13
WILL SECURE A
NOTED SPEAKER

Ever alert to give its members
the best to be had Of everything
the committee on arrangements
for the next meeting of the board
of trade will secure, if possible
speakers of national prominence
to address that body.
The fact that the date will fall
close to the national convention
time makes such a step possible
and negotiations are already un-
der way to secure a speaker OF
repute.
In the event that a smoker is
held while delegates to the Demo
cratic state convention are in
Glenwood Springs, the committee
will try to get Mayor Speer OF
some other party leader to make
speech.
1t is we'll known fact that
Speer seldom talks on matters po-
litical. but when he does make a
speech it is always strong one
and one that is long remembered
1t is not believed, however, that
he will touch upon political condi-
tions, but rather, the committee
believes. he would choose some
thing with reference to the gov
ernment of cities, civic improve
ment. or other kindred subject.
1t is too early at this time to
make definite announcement of
the possible speakers, but it is
expected that rousing meeting,
devoted entirely to speechmaking
will result from the committee s
efforts.
Should this be the method Of
procedure, an open meeting of the
advisory committee will be held
the next evening in order that
anyone who has business to bring
before it, may be given an op-
portunity to be heard.
Other plans to make the board
of trade the liveliest and the best
organization of its kind on the
western slope are being consider
ed. and no stone will be left un-
turned to accomplish this end.

BONDS ARE VOTED
FOR GYMNASIUM

From Saturdays Daily Post.
By decisive vote, cast yester-
day afternoon, the taxpayers of
school district No. l decided that
an addition should be built at the
high school that will be used for
a gymnasium and class room.
The vote was upon the issuance
of $4,000 bonds, as it is believed
that a suitable place such as is
needed, can be provided for this
sum.
Sentiment was so universally in
favor of the idea that it was a
foregone conclusion that the vote
would be in favor of issuing the
bonds.

was more or less familiar.
Enthusiastic Eagle.


Eagle gave the boosters cordial
greeting; the band could scarcely
make its way through the crowd
at the depot, but it managed to
get out somehow, and once more
led the triumphal procession.
Gathered at the intersection of
the principal streets, the boys
made music for several minutes,
then, gathering up sixteen of its
principal citizens, the excursion
was again on its way.
Among those who came with us
were Mayor Mckenzie, Louis
Schwarz and Ed Glenn.
Wolcott was given brief call,
and stop made at Minturn for
lunch. II. Exter, the Rio Grande
agent, was on hand at all stages,
but shone here as star. The
hungry men he steered into the

the party were given possession
of the dining room.
Red Chn Ready.
Red Cliff was ready for the Wis.,
itors, for President Parks was
presented with huge key to the
city by Charles Gilman on be-
half of the mayor, done in silver,
and a true work of art Clam
bering from the ears, the boys
and girls made a quick run across
the small creek, and Red Cliff
knew we were there.
The big key, however, was not
needed, as everything was wide
open, the latch strings had been
torn off and the doors propped
back.
Charles Gilman, on behalf of
Mayor Smutzer, who was out of
town, made brief speech of well
come, the band played, and then,
once more, we were on the way.
At Leadville.
1t was just 2:15 o'clock when
long whistle from the locomo-
tive told all Leadville that we had
arrived. Carriages for the ladies
had been provided and they were
taken about the city or whirled
directly to. the Elks' club house,
where rest rooms had been pre-
pared.
Some spent the afternoon view
ing the city. while others went to
the ball game at the race track.
We were warmly welcomed and
given the freedom of the city.
The return trip was begun at
I AS, and the party reached home
tired but happy, quarter to IL.
The Ball Game.
There was fair sized crowd
at the race track to witness the
ball game between GlenwOod and
I.eadville. For two innings it
looked promising, then Lesdville
went in the air, and when the
last of the eighth had been finish
ed the score book showed:
Glenwood, 16.
Leadville, 4.
The last three innings were
fierce in the matter of hitting.
Their pitcher was pounded all
over the lot, although he got sew
eral strikeOuts to his credit.
The score:
