The merchants are planning to
close their stores in the afternoon
to witness the football game between
the two old rivals. Knox and Mon
mouth. In all probability there will
be several thousands in attendance
at that game as it is the big game of
the season and since Monmouth is
bringing a large delegation. In the
oratOrical event the rivalry will be
fully as strong. last year Monmouth
won second and thought they deserv-
ed first, this year they are doing
everything in their power to win
from Knox and they have a strong
man, indeed. The citizens here as
we'll as the students feel that they
have a hard record to equal, in the
last 10 years Knox has won the
state oratorical event six times and
at the interstate has brought first
honors to Illinois on four of those
times. Nothing is being spared.
therefore, in the efforts to win, al
though a stiff fight is expected with
Monmouth and the Wesleyan man is
expected to place.

$1,000 Water Transfer.

Greeley.-One of the most import
ant transfers of water that has taken
place in, the Greeley district in many
months is that closed by c. t. Neill'
j. T. Warren and Frank Loustalet'
capitalists of this city. The water is
valued at $4,000 and consists OF l2.SZ
cubic feet from the Hodgson ditch ana
twelve cubic feet from the Highland
ditch to the Lower Platte and Beaver
ditch. The district court OF Denver
must approve the transfer before 1t
can be recorded, and hearing on the
matter will be had November 2Sth.
Neill and Warren have held an op-
ton on the Hodgson ditch for a year
and Neill and Loustalet have had an
option on the Highland ditch for a
similar length of time.
The Lower Platte and Beaver ditch
IL is understood, was short of water
last year and took this means OF pro-

wrlaht Aviation Plant In Colorado

Pueblo-Pueblo and Denver are TO
he the scenes of experimental avla-
tion plants. conducted by the Wright
brothers, said a Pueblo man, sup
posed to be we'll posted in aviation
affairs. 1t is stated that noted East
ern ayiators are already in Colorado
making preparations for these flights'
and it is believed that the aeroplane
seen in flight near here about week
ago was manipulated by a Wright
man.
The visit to Colorado of the East
ern people is believed to be in prepa-
ration to enter for the big prizes
which have been offered for flights
from coast to coast. The greatest OBJ
stacle to be overcome in these flights
would be passing over the Rocky
Mountains, and for this reason the
experiments are being conducted
here first. Pueblo men posted on
aviation progress in Colorado are OF
the opinion that there is no one IN
the state now who could have made
the flight witnessed here week ago.
The man-bird seen in action here IS
believed to be the same who appeared
in Denver Saturday night. 1t is said
a representative of the Wright broth
ers has been in Denver several days
arranging for flights between Denver
and Pueblo, as well as into the noun
tains.
