GLENWOOD RACES
FOR next week

The Glenwood races promise to be
bigger and better this year than ever
before and that is saying a great deal
The race track is surely lively place
these days and the interest will contin
ne until after the races are over.
There are now about 2s horses on the
grounds and many more are coming.
Entries are promised from Delta, Mon
trose, Grand Junction and many east
ern slope points.
Several new features will be introduc-
cd this year and the collection of out
law horses will be much larger than
ever before as eight or ten entries have
been secured from among those that
= participated in the Frontier day cele-
bration at Cheyenne. This feature has
been placed in charge of Steve Baxter
who has had a wide acquaintance with
the outlaw equines.
In harness events the board promises
splendid exhibition and the usual
number of gallopers will have places
on the program.
1t is the intention to give the people
from six to eight frst-class events each
day. The track is in splendid condition
and everything is being done that can
be done to insure very satisfactory
meet.
Get ready for it. Plan for it in ad-
vance and don't forget the date, Sep
tember 7-S-9-1O. That's next Wednes-
day, Thursday, Friday and Saturday.

TRAIN ROBBERY
ON MIDLAND
Engineer Stewart Sends One
Robber to Long Sleep
and F1ghtens Others
DETAILS ARE LACKING

Colorado Midland passenger train No.
l03 was held up by three robbers be-
tween Florissant and Divide at 1:45
Friday morning, and as a result one
robber is dead, Engineer Stewart of
the passenger train was shot in the
leg, and an unknown hobo was wound
ed. The remaining robbers escaped,
with Sheriff Won Phul OF Cripple Creek
and a posse in pursuit.
The train had stopped at mile post
No. 80, where it meets No. 104. and at
this point three men from the tender
covered Engineer Stewart with revol'
vers. Stewart pulled his gun and r
fusilade of bullets followed in which
Stewart was shot in the leg and one
robber was killed. 1t is believed that
the men boarded the tender at Divide,
where the train stopped for water.
The two remaining bandits fred sew
eral shots in the express car, but the
expressman would not open the doors
and the bandits soon fled into the dark
ness.
The hobo was shot by the porter on
the Pullman. He and Stewart were
rushed back to Colorado Springs on
No. 1O4.
Another story is to the effect that
when the train stopped at Muskeag to
take water two robbers boarded the
tender and one of them held up the
fireman and the other held up Engineer
Stewart at the point of a gun. In a
short time they demanded that the
train be stopped which was done. The
engineer and fireman were ordered TO
get off the engine but to keep their
hands up in the air. This was done
but as Stewart was leaving the engine
he very adroitly picked up piece Of
slack from the coal and as he came
down he hurled this at the highwayman
and knocked him down. The fellow fir
ed one shot which took effect in Ste
warts leg but notwithstanding his in
jury Stewart grappled with the outlaw
and overpowering him took the fellow $
gun away from him and blew the man IS
head off. Stewart s injury is not con
sidered serious and he is looked upon
today as the hero of the Midland road.

sell his horse. Mccoy offered to take
the outfit for $35 which the fellow
asked for it and wrote him check for
the amount which Calvert refused to
accept as he said he must have Mt
least $40 in cash. By this time Mccoy

he took the fellow over to the home os
Mack Fleck, deputy sheriff, and as
Fleck had heard of the theft he prompt
ly took the man in tow and notified
the Garfield county sheriff who went to
Avon and brought Calvert back here

Mr.. Mecklin was once resident of
the San Juan country but is now a
Denver druggist but if there is any one
subject of which he makes a hobby it
is that of good roads, so taking his
young son with him he started out
some time ago by auto for tour of the
state to investigate the conditions in
the road line. They went via Pueblo,
Walsenburg, over La Veta pass. through
Fort Garland, Alamosa, Del Norte,
Wagon Wheel Gap, Creede and at Sill
verton they were joined by Mr.. Wyman.
Then the party proceeded to Ouray,
Montrose, Delta, Grand Junction and
Glenwood, leaving here Thursday morn
ing over the state road up the Grand
Canon for Leadville, Salida, Canon City
Florence and Pueblo and thence to Den
yer.
Both gentlemen are very positive as
to the necessity for definite action in
the way of creating sentiment and in
terest in good roads and they are ex-
,pecting great things from the meeting
soon to be held in Glenwood in the
interest of better highways.
They declare that an ideal road can
and should be built over the circle
route which they have travelled and that
no better movement could be made to
encourage healthy tourist travel to
western Colorado than by making it
possible for owners of automobiles to
use their machines in this part of the
state while they may admire the grand
est scenery in the world and enjoy our
splendid hunting and fishing and at the
same time satisfy their passion for
motoring.
The gentlemen had conference with
Mayor Drach, Mr.. Parkison and others
and urged that this matter be brought
properly before the state highway COM

commended toward securing state help
