One of the shortest sessions on re-

in regular monthly meeting Thursday

Firemen Give Smoker.

There was a smoker in the fremen's
hall on Wednesday night that was
genuine whopper and was so filled with
happy times that midnight came before
those present knew it was time for the
curfew bell to ring. 1t was given by
the members of the hook and ladder
company to the officers of the fire de-
partment and it was success from
Alpha to Omega. There was not a
moment of monotony for the Hookies
had something going all the time. Two
new members were initiated, Ed Cullen
and Henning Bergen. Then there were
several artistic exhibitions of the man
ly art by various members for the en-
tertainment of their guests and nearly
every member of the company knew
how to handle the gloves in scientific
manner. There was fun galore over
these friendly bouts. Another inter
esting attraction was a wrestling match
between Sam McGinnis and George
Dumont, Jr. in which Sam came out
with flying colors, while George was
first class second. But the entertain
ment was not confined to the handiwork
of the men, for the ladies, always alert
to dispense happiness, had prepared
grand spread such as would delight the
risibiIities of the most exacting epicure.
1t was feast, and the way the boys
got on the outside of the good things
was only equaled by them after they
had been fighting fire for hours on an
empty stomach. The firemen's year
ends the last of March, and the mem
bers present served notice that there
would be something doing" before its
expiration. The entire department is
talking of having jolly good time the
night of the 10Th, and when they make
up their minds to do a thing they do it
with the same energy as they pull out
of bed to save the property Of citizens.
When this night comes, if there is
single citizen that cannot enjoy joke,
let him take the afternoon train for
Floyd Hill and come back the next
morning, for the boys have earned any
kind of recreation that may suggest
itself and they are going to have it on
the 29th. Remember the date or they
will make you remember it when it
comes.

Released From Tolls.

The trial of Messrs. Manning and
Hoban in the Federal court in Denver
came up yesterday morning but was dis
posed of in summary manner. About
noon, MIR. Hoban 'phoned that Judge
Lewis had thrown the case out of court
stating that the Judge in doing so had
administered some pretty stringent rep
rimands to the Federal authorities who
had been instrumental in bringing the
suit. The following report of the pro-
ceedings in the case on Friday is taken
from the Denver Post:
"Well, as to the literature of these
mining companies it is another case
of the fool and his money are soon part
ed. The government cannot be the
the protector of every person in the.
coun ry who buys stock at cents a
share and expects to draw dividends
at once and be part owner in rich ore
producing mine"
With this sentence Federal Judge
Lewis threw out of court to-day the
case of the government against Jay F.
Manning and John Hoban and for
time at least put an end to fur
ther prosecution of wildcat mining
schemes in Colorado.
| The decision practically wipes cut Of
existence the conspiracy statute known
as $3.50, under which the government
has been trying to prosecute. While
Judge Lewis continues on the bench it
is intimated by government officials
that no more cases, for using the mails
to defraud will be brought in Colorado.
The United States attorney general
was today notified of the sweeping
ruling and told that local postoffice auth
critics, and the United States district
attorney would not, unless ordered by
the attorney general bring any more
cases of this nature, no matter how
serious they consider them nor how
much they think the public is be-
ing gulled by fake mining schemes.

will Hear Evanselist.

During the next few days many of
our citizens will make prilgrimage to
Denver to hear the great revivalist,
Gipsy Smith. He is regarded as one of
the most successful men in his line in
this country. Born in gypsy tent,
with scarcely any school privileges, he
has by reading, observation and associ-
ations become talented and educated
man, one who can sway multitudes by
his elouuence that is of the simplest
style and by his language which is of
the plainest character. He will spend
all of the week in Denver speaking at
the auditorium to overflowing audiences
and at other places as occasion may de-
mand. He is a striking illustration of
the self-made man, and like the many
self-made men of our country who have
attained prominence in the various
walks of life, sets an example for the
boy of to-day who thinks he has not a
ch ance because things do not come his
way to suit. There is a chance for
everyone in this country to become ed
ucated, even if he has not the oppor
tunity to attend school. If he has the
stuff in him, the opportunities are all
around him. If he goes through life
without taking these advantages it is
because he has not the ambition for
aelf-improyement.
