WRITES UP
SHEEP ARMY
The New York Sun, Contains an Interesting Story Regard
ing the March Of the 2lOOO Sheep and Armed Es-
cort through Grand Junction and Mesa County Old
Feud Commented on in Graphic Manner

sheepmen erected a great monument
OF stones where the herder fell. On
the monument they posted a notice,
offering an increased reward of $1O,-
900 for the apprehension of the men
responsible for Swansons' death.
Leaving this notice on the monu-
ment, the cavalcade passed on.
Swanson's brother was the one who
assisted in putting up the monument.
On Monday, January 13, the sheep
army encamped across the river from
the thriving town of Grand Junction.
Colo. Next day 1t moved across the
Grand river bridge and through the
town and out toward the ranges of
Utah. After leaving Grand Junction
it was frankly in hostile territory,
as this part of the range Is all given
over to the cattle business. Sheen
move slowly under the best of cir
cumstances, and it was possible for
the cavalcade to make only twenty
miles day. 1t took five hours for
the procession of sheep to pass a
given point.
NO demonstration was made by
any hostile interests, and the sheen
men reached their winter range,
without incident. Indeed 1t would
nave taken small army of cattle
men to defeat such an organization
OF well armed and determined men.
Cattlemen contend that the sheen
reed out" the cattle range and that
they are helpless against wandering
sheepmen who do not pay local taxes,
but who run their flocks where they
will, and who have ruined many a
cattleman by their action. Dead
lines have been drawn, and sheen
have been slaughtered by thousands
and in some instances herders killed
for their temerity in disobeying the
mandate of the cattlemen.

TEN MILLION DOLLAR FUND VII.
SOON BE TURNED OVER
TO TRUSTEES.
ESTATE IS INCREASING
PRACTICALLY ALL CAWSUiTs
HAVE BEEN WON BY EXEC
uToRs OR SETTLED.

Denyer.-EXecutors of the will ct
Winfield Scott Stratton are making ey.
cry endeayor 10 close up the affairs oi
the estate by Jan. 1st in order to turn
1t over TO the trustees, who will then
carry out the original tenets of the
VIII, which are the building of a home
for aged and INDECENT men. From the
statements made by Tyson s. Dimes
one OF the executors, 1t is understood
the estate, when turned over to the
trustees. will approximate s10,00o,o00
considerably more than the value when
Stratton died. Included in the estate
is some of the choicest Denver realty.
When Stratton died he left practi-
cally his entire estate to be used as a
trust fund for the erection and mainte-
nance of home at Colorado Springs
for the aged and INDECENT After a le-
gal battle the son was given $3.50, 900.
Other legacies amounted to $500. 900.
An inheritance tax of $1Ss, 900 was paid
the state. 1t was estimated that the
Stratton estate was worth about ST.
500,000 when Stratton died. I.egacies
court costs, taxes and legal fees
brought the value down to about So
100000. By the statements of Execu-
tor Dimes it is learned that the estate
has increased about $4,000 900 in value
in something like five years
At present there are suits pending
against the estate and these will, ac-
cording to report, be settled in short
time. One Of these suits is for $500
and the other for 100000. There have
been filed against the estate suits ag
gregating in value $24000,000 All Of
these contests have been either won or
have been settled by the executors.
Efforts are now being made to sell
the mining property or the estate To-
Gated in the Cripple Creek district.
These mines will not be disposed OF un-
less fair price can be obtained for
them.
The trustees who will have charge of
the construction and management OF
the home are D. H. Rice, Colorado
Springs; Tyson S. Dimes and Moses
Hallett of Denver. Mr.. Hallett is in
charge OF the Clayton estate, the prop
erty Of which was left for the building

ium on the 2Sth ult.. after an illness
of several months. Captain Boyd was
one Of the earliest irrigationists of this
community and his history of Greeley
and Union colony, published in 1888,

zines and periodicals, was an intimate
friend Of N. c. Meeker, founder OF
Greeley, represented Weld county in

doubtedly altruism is one of the finest

during the following week. She was
unquestionably lovely. from the crown
OF her golden head TO the tip of her
dainty shoe, and, moreover, was en-
dowed with that most enHable gift
called personal magnetism: her smile
was a caress, and the infection OF her
voice implied unqualified pleasure in
the society OF the person whom she
happened to address.
We took her to the cottage, and
she went over it with genuine interest,
suggesting slight rearrangement of
furniture, and lingering on the YER
anda as though reluctant to leave.
Il quite envy you she said, with a
