Miss Alice Gresham, who has been
visiting her cousin, VIM. Milton, for
several weeks, departed Wednesday
for her home in Atche, Colo. Miss
Gresham's father will be remembered
as one of the valleys pioneers, having
located on what is now known as the
Talcott place in 1884.
o. j. McReynolds brought one plant
of alfalfa to the Office of the Cedaredge
Realty Co. Wednesday, which was a
wonder. The plant had Is or 20 stems
all of which were more than seven feet
in height. 1t may be that alfalfa does
not grow some in this country, but this
stalk and the big crop this year tell a
different story.
There has been a strong demand for
help to harvest the big hay crop. Men
are scarcer this season than for some
time past and it looks as though the
help problem will be one of the hardest
to solve this season. When the fruit
commences to ripen some stringent
means will have to be employed to get
people to take care of the produce
properly.
P. H. Miller this week sold to Her.
man Stiritz of Denver the as acres

ately. Mr.. Miller on Thursday closed
deal for the purchase of the B. B..
Cronk 20 acres adjoining the place he
sold, paying 81, 800 therefor. The last
purchased place is unimproved land.
Miss C. M. Johnson, the present
postmaster at Cedaredge, has sent in
her resignation to take effect as soon
as new appointment can be made.
Harry Cobbett is circulating petition
for the position, and as Harry is a
pleasant and accommodating citizen his
petition is being generally signed, and
we believe Harry will make good
man for the place.

PERlENcE,
Weber Hugs Himself With Joy at the
suocess Of "The Climax" in Pleas

do you know I think there is a
kind of selfshness in giving; for
there Is a. kind Of Joy in the distribu-
ton of gifts" said Joseph M. Weber,
who stands sponsor to "The. Climax"
'One unconsciously gets the habit OF
giving. You begin by giving your
wife a hat, and the, kid on the pave
ment a stock of candy. If you give
a beggsr aims tonight, you win find
it much easier to repeat the act to-
morrow night. And finally you begin
to experience pleasure that is head
and heals over eating and drinking,
AMID smoking and automcbiling. At
ter gift to your neighbor, friend,
or relative, you initiate your breast,
and you walk at a more rapid pace.
You gradually find yourself giving
from selfish motive. You come to
banker after the feeling that prompts
the gift. When I give laugh to
an audience I get a similar feeling.
And when I give a successful play,
such as The Climax to the public
I hug myself in glee, and it is that
kind of joy one experiences in MAX
ing distribution Of gifts"

Italian Laborer
Killed at WaIdron

Francisco Cucinello. of the prov
ince of Oqullo Trasacco, Italy, was
Instantly killed at the WaIdron island
sandstone quarry at O'Clock Thurs
day night of last week by a rock slide
and Harry Moore, slingman, was
badly injured. but not fatally. Gu
cinello's BODY was taken to Belline-
ham early Friday morning and was
buried from the undertaking prlors of
Stokes & Wickman. on Elk street, as
soon as the coroner's certificate reach
ed there from Friday Harbor.
A force of about 100 men is en-
ployed at the quarry and several came
near being caught in the slide. A
heavy blast had been put in and a
large quantity of rock broken loose.
The men we're at work filling the cars
when. the slide occurred and all sue
ceeded In getting out of the way ev-
cept Cucinello and Moore. The for
mer was entirely covered with rocks
aud dirt and his body horribly mang-
led. Moore, who was near the end
of the slide. was caught by few
stones, but was not seriously injured.
Cucinello was about % years of
age and had beer working at the quar-
rs for the past month. But little is
known concerning him. It is believ-
ed that he has brother in this coun-
try, but nobody appears to know
where he is. He had a number of
friends at the quarry and two of them
were at his side when the slide occur
red. They dragged him out as quick
ly as possible but he was dead when
tle body was recovered. The remains
were taken to the city by Timekeeper
Shaunessy and two of the dead man s
friends.
S. L. Young, representative of
the independent Asphalt Paving COM
pany. which is interested in the stone
quarry on Waldron island, states that
IN the future it is planned TO secure
a record concerning all who are em-
ployed there. This is the second IA
tai accident that has occurred there
during the past two months. A man
was recently drowned by falling of
the dock. Nothing was known about
his past. A short time ago a man
who had been employed at the quarry
committed suicide at BelliGgham.
His life was also a mystery, and it is
planned to ascertain information
about men who apply for work in the
| futura
