Of all the Christmas affairs which were held in Douglas none was more successful than the entertainment for the guests Of the Gadsden. A Christ mas eve in hotel will generally call to mind gloom, despondency and dis satisfaction. but in the Gadsden with Manager Tommy Law as host and a coterie of permanent guests who find his house truly a home, no such con dition existed. It was as if one big family had reunited to celebrate Christmas. The dining room had been beautifully decorated, had an i'm mense and bountifully laden tree in the centre, and later made a charm ing ball room.
 From the time the lights were turn ed on and the call was issued for ey- eryone to go to tho big dining hall. there was fun and merriment Big Johnny George was inveigled into act ing as old Santa Claus and he filled the part to perfection, calling in an able corps of assistants. The com mittee had a present, of an amusing character, for each one and the women guests of the hotel had added to the burden of the tree with gifts and re membranes. Chief of these was Miss Jane Ella Harrison. who had a neat and appropriate little rhyme or poem for each and every one of her many friends present.
 The guests had invited others from outside, there was an excellent or chestra to furnish the dance music and all was merry as the Christmas chimes until after two on the fes- tive morning when the crowd reluc- tantly dispersed.
 Among those present were: Mir. and Mrs. W. s. Mclaughlin. Mrn and Mrs. Kelly Henry, Mir. and Mrs A. F. White. Mir. and Mrs Deigley, Mir and Mrs. Tanner, MT. and Mrs. Evans; Misses Harrison, Head. Nichols, Cobb. Williams, Mustain, Wohlgemuth. Lil- Han Johnson. Evelyn Moore, Berg, Johnson. Willie Davis. House, VII Hams; Mesdames Whipple.

Dining Cars on New D. G. R. G.
Trains

The patronage of the Denver a
Rio Grande new passenger trains,
No. 15 and No 16. inaugurated July
20 between Grand Junction and Den
yer, has already increased to such
an extent, and the call has been so
strong and persistent that the man
agement has been obliged to supply
these trains with dining cars.
Hereafter No. 16, which leaves
Grand junction every day promptly
at 2:30 pm, will carry a dining car
on which dinner will be served after
leaving Glenwood Springs at 525
pm. This train arrives in Denver
the next morning at S:15.
No. 10, leaving Denver daily at
9:05 pm, will carry dining car on
which breakfast and luncheon will
be served before arrival in Grand
Junction at 3 pm.
The supplying of diners will com
plete the equipment OF these new
trains. and the public will certainly
find them the acme of comfort and
convenience.
Any Denver &, Rio Grande agent
will supply detailed information.
When you have any heavy hauling
to do let Barton & Terrill do it. They
have especially built wagons for this
work and their prices are reasonable.

The late Peleg w. Chandler, who
was hard of hearing, was one Of the
most effective of wartime speakers.
Every occasion illustrated his elo-
quence and demonstrated the quick
ness of his repartee. At one meet
ing he was frequently interrupted by
a BLACKBOARD at the rear of the hall,
who kept shouting "Why don't you
go yourself?" For a time Mr.. Chand-
ler's deafness prevented him from
catching the exact nature of the in
terruption of which he had been for
some time conscious. At last, Mr..
Chandler caught the words of the dis
turber. Then, in the mildest accents,
which emphasized the force of the
words, he said: young man, if my
ears were as good as yours, and as
long as yours, shouldn't be here to-
