HORSE SHOT
IN F0RELEG

While out cunning yesterday af-
ternoon with his little boy. NJ. J. Sui
livan, the well known ditch rider,
had the misfortune, while working
with his gun, to shoot a valuable
horse in the knee of the foreleg.
The animal is a most valuable one
md 1t was brought to the stables of
Dr. Drew, the well known veterinar-
ian, where every effort is being made
to save the horse.
When Mr. Sullivans gun was ac-
cidentally discharged he was driving
along quietly with his little boy, and
in some manner the trigger caught
and the gun was exploded, the muz-
zle of the barrel of the gun being
pointed out over the dashboard of
the wagon.
Mr.. Sullivan values the horse very
highly, as it is a pet in the family
and also a very valuable horse, and
he feels keenly the accident.
DR.. Drew hopes to be able to save
the horse if the knee bones are not
too badly shattered.

anticipating a most delightful time.
The Knights all wore handsome
badges bearing the name of their

young men of the uniform rank made
fine showing in their superb uni

company which was only recently or
ganized.
AT Delta today are gathered dele
cations from a dozen or more lodges
on the western slope, and the conven-
ton promises to be great big sue
cess.
Tonight the visitors will be enter
tanned by the Delta Lodge at big
banuuet. and then great initiatory
session will be held in the lodge hall
of Grand Mesa Lodge of Delta. and
the Grand Junction Lodge has been
asked to eXemplify the beautiful

Changes In Road Laws.

The question of good roads is at tracing much attention in the vicin- ity of Ozark and the best methods of building and maintaining the highawsy are discussed with more interest than ever before. It is probable that some proposition will be submitted to the next General Assembly by citizens of Franklin county looking to a change i'll the present methods, A. ]. Tubbs. who has devoted much thought to the matter suggests that the present sys tenn of paying s4 per day for an over seer who looks after the work of from one to three men is too expensive He thinks roads should be impr )ved al together by money derived from taxa tion or that the tax system should be abolished altogether and the roads worked directly as formerly
 He also suggests the enactment of law which will prohibit the use of freight wagons in the state having less than three-inch tires and the exemp- tion from all taxation of wagons hay ing tires four inches or more i1 width

BAvEo FROM MATERNAL WRATH.
eoys' rervent Prayer Was Answered
 In the Nick of Time.

A suburbanite is fond of telling this story of his fiveyear-old son Bobby. Being of an inquiring turn of mind the youngster one day managed to turn on both faucets in the bathtub to see what would happen. It chauced that the stopper was in place, and the tub rapidly filled up, to the great de- light of Bobby. Finally. however. the tub became so full that 1t threatened to overflow on to the floor. and Bobby, having proper respect for the mater nal slipper. became frightened and tried vainly to turn off the water. Be- Ing unable to. for some reason. he gazed tearfully at the ever-rising flood, and then. mindful both of his religious training and the occasional visits of the plumber. he plunged down on his knees, and his elder sister. who hap pened to be passing at the moment, heard him exclaim. fervently:
 70, Lord, please stop this water running And. O, Lord. If you can't do 1t. please send somebody that can!"
 His prayer was answered, for his sister rose to the occasion and turned off the water and temporarily saved Bobby from the much-feared slipper.

The Grand Jury urged the police magistrate to increase the fine to the maximum. but this he refused 10 do. although the fine was made S10 In the meantime, the state prosecuted each week. but failed to secure a conviction before juries.
 The action of Judge Freer in refus- ing 10 put stop 10 Sunday pool arous- ed such a storm of indignation that talk of impeachment was becoming common.
