JAPANESE CELEBRATION

November 3rd being the birthday of
japan's Emperor, the japanese people
the world over celebrate the event as
loyalty as we Americans celebrate our
Independence Day. About forty or
more Americans and citizens of Ord
way were invited to participate in Il
dinner prepared by MyiOsha, at his
camp on the J. NJ. Smith farm, one
mile east of town. At the gate lead
ing in from the road were the Ameri-
can and japanese flags. Near the
house upon high staff was large
American flag and leading to either
side was a number of Japanese flags,
emblematical of their great loyalty to
America, as we'll as their own land
and government.
While waiting for all guests to ar
rive, dinner was being prepared by
expert hands and at 6:l5 it was
announced. And for two hours some
thing like eight courses followed and
such dinners are only occasionally
enjoyed. At about $3.50 the guests de-
parted with a firm conviction that the
little brown men are welcome
acquisition to this part of Uncle Sans
domain.

was MURDER ORSUIc/DE
Horny Gasser Thought to Have Mot
WITH foul Play. Found Dead
IN His Tent Sunday.

The report Reached Ordway late
sunday evening that Henry Gasser,
farm hand oa the Fred Bueller ranch.
SIX miles west Of town. had committed
suicide In his tent which is located
100 feet from the Buchlcr residence.
The body was lying on the ground
with two bullet wounds in the head
and ~ culihrc revolver thrust under
his breast. The body was found lying
IN pool Of blood and face downward.
Coroner Wilson was immediately
notified and the body was removed TO
the Grimm X Colgin undertaking
rooms where an inquest was held and
"A verdict returned OF murder by the
hand Of some unknown person.
That GaSser was suicide seems
very improbable as the wounds were
such that IL would be next to impos-
siblc for him to inilict them with his
own hands. A third bullet wound
was found after the corOncr's inquest
and IL IS claimed that two OF the shots
would have been fatal instantly.
GasScr was native OF Switzerland,
having been born In Schoilhausen
some ~ years ago. lie has been liz
partnership with one Ernest Slegcl,
now residing in Denver. They were
interested together in properties in
Rocky Ford and Pueblo.
Wurkmcu associated with him state
that he was OF a quiet and melancholy
disposition and had often remarked
that he would bc better oil dead than
alive. Mr.. Buchlcr. his employer,
says that he has worked beside him
many days without hearing an utter
anCc from him.
The remains are being held until
the arrival Of relatives from Nebraska.
They are expected today. a sister
and daughter are the only living
relatives.

FARM NOTES

Someone Inquiries II IL Is too late
now To SOW winter wheat. This de.
pcnds somewhat on the latencsS Of
fall. II this warm weather continues
month or two, as IL may, wheat
would come up now aud probably
make good crop. On nc9 ground
ar sod ground Of any kind, not much
risk would be run but on land that
has been farmed Ii or 20 years is not
as warm aud Is disappointing those
who have sUwn In November. sly
advice would be 10 sow wheat from
September IL TO October on such
ground. The roots need 10 develop
well before winter freezing. and a
good turf Of green protects from
wind and dry weather.
Shall | water my lawn any more
this fall? certainly should. and
would water In mIdwIntcr IL needed
some winters have ample snow or rain
To keep the lawn alive especially II
the snow can be kept from blowing
OLA good coating OF leaves and
mulch on top heavy enough to stay.
Is fine protection, but care must be
exercised not to smother.
or course our town Is improving.
Let us commend the "city dads" for
the sidewalks and the care Of the
parks; how much we get out OF a small
amount expended In keeping the trees
trimmed and the ragged edges rakcd
and burned. The tourist says. "this
is evidence Of thrift and prosperity" ="
Nothing gives so great returns for the
money rs white lead and oil. For one,
| would never care To invest In COM
munity where front gates are crooked
and neglected aud whose houses are
Imprinted and mosscd over, for the
latter is apt to he on the citizens
backs, also. ! care not how deep the
soil. or line the climate, IL the people
lack enterprise and pride In public az
fairs, the hOmcscckcr will move on.
Let us praise Peck Il johnson for
the neat and tidy prospectus of Ord
way lands and Industries. How few
knew what has been doing in our own
midst until they have shown us, and
not an item is published but can be
vouchcd for by alidavits II necessary.
Probably our united efforts should
just now be cOncc ntratcd on the Mis-
souri, Pacific Railroad. That our depot
and grounds are disgrace to any
civilized community, needs no argu.
mcnt and especially when we have
given them in the last ten years wat
er privileges worth at least $50, 900 90.
and besides about - acres OF land
worth some good hard cash. And then
to add TO all this, a verbal agreement
was made in 1891 with the Town Com
pany to Ill in and beautify the front.

us lawn and flowers in front instead Of
mud and filth which we have patient
ly endured all these years. The pas.
sengers at night who walk Off into the
quagmire and disease breeding stencil,
is not apt to praise Ordway to his
friends.
