Box Auction.
New York's -Four Hundred will be ex-
tensively represented on Thursday next
at the Madison Square Garden Theater,
at the auction Of the boxes for the Ma
tional Horse Show, which opens tomor-
row fortnight. The competition Will be
confined exclusively to stockholders and
members of the association, and II is
only afterward that the remaining box
es will be disposed of by sale. In this
way It viii be rendered possible 10 pre-
vent the most desirable and conspicuous
boxes at the show from falling into un-
desirable hands. while IN the same way
awkward pro Simities will be avoided.
Precautions o. this kind are particular
ly necessary IN these days when divorce
has become so prevalent, since IT IS, 10
say the least, embarrassing for people
whose matrimonial ties have recently
been sUndered by the courts TO mo
themselves occupying adjoining boxes at
the show.

The daily sentinel., 1908-08-10

During the past few years there
has been quite good deal of discus
sion regarding the holding of a big
field day program, and the plans have
so far materialized that announce
ment can be made today, ard, if the
citizens of Grand Junction will show
a, disposition to support the program
and to boost it, one of the cleanest,
classiest afternoons of sport the city
ever had is assured.
The business men of the city will
not be asked to put up subscriptions
to pay the expenses of the day, but
they will be asked to close their
stores for the on-half day, and The
Sentinel feels that such n request
will be very reasonable and should
meet a ready and willing response
from every business man in Grand
junction.
Thursday, the real middle day of
the week, is day that the merchants
could close for a half day without
inconvenience, especially in the sum-
mer-time, and with the stores closed
great attendance at the field day
events at the fair grounds is certain
providing the weather is agreeable.
August will be rather dull in the
sporting event line in Grand juno
tion, and few ball games are arranged
for the month. Consequently the
field day proposition should meet
with general approval. 1t will break
an otherwise tedious monotony
1t is planned. according to Captain
Goldsworthy. to have the program
open at an early hour in the after

FOWL OR BIRD?

Boston. Aug. 1O.--Is a pigeon a
fowl or bird? This is a question
which the superior court will be call
ed upon to decide at future session.
Fanciers all over the country have
become Interested and it is likely
that much expert testimony will be
required to settle the problem.
The controversy grows out of a
suit brought by John and w. G. Err
win. of Easton. against =. Sherwood
Keith, a neighbor, who is a pigeon
fancier. 1t was alleged by the Err
wins that certain fowls" owned by
Keith did great damage to their
property. A verdict in favor of the
plaintiffs was given. Now Keith has
taken the matter to the superior
court, basing his appeal on the tech
nical ground that a pigeon is not a
fowl as set forth in the complaint.

Zotti claims to be the victim of a
conspiracy to ruin his business. and

conspirators. No defense was made
at the trial, attorneys for Zotti claim
ing that the prosecution failed to
prove it's case. If Zotti is acquitted,

there will be another ball game that
afternoon between two visiting teams

are pending at this time.
Outside of the base ball games
there will be at least four and may
be more good, clean, first class sport

automobile event, foot race and, in
all probability, a series of other ath-
letic events.
Only one admission fee will be

be the best afternoon of sport the

The Manless Club was formed
three years ago in Alton. the charter
membership being fourteen promi

Since that time eight of the members
have been visited by the stork, and
in every instance the bird has left a

Branches of the club have been
organized in many cities and in states
as far distant as Colorado and Cali

members of these subordinate lodges
the stork is just as partial to female
children, and it is feared that if the
idea is carried further, posterity will

at her home for streptococcic poison
ing, the result of fly bite on the

gained that ordinary methods of re-
lief proved of no avail. and an opera
tion was necessary TO prevent death.

shaw, called in DR.. w. j. Roe, and
the arm was incised and the bone
scraped. AS the patients tempera-
ture did not subside from the alarm

thought best to take her to the JEFF

had fallen this morning to SO de-
