biggest year on record IN tne FAMOUS
valley.
"It certainly looks good to me-
said one of the Illinois men. We en-
joyed this ride of more than 200
miles through the rich and promis-
ing valley-"the Valley of Content"
l believe you all call it. don't you?-
and the people along the way look
prosperous. Mr.. Wiley has been
giving US figures, and they seem
astounding yet 1 presume they are
true. You hear much more about
the Arkansas Valley these days
than you used to hear"
The Illinoisians were also much
interested in the Eighteenth National
Irrigation Congress, Pueblo, Septem-
ber $3.50. and thought it would be
great gathering. We have heard
in our state about the great devel-
opment work the congress is doing
said one of the visitors.
The famous New Santa Fe Trail,
the greatest good road in the west
along which this car and its occu-
pants came and on which they made
much speed, will be complete and
in most successful operation for its
$50 miles in Kansas and COLORADO
when the congress meets next fall.

Oelawarean of Dover Commends Him
For His Good Works.


With the approaching session of
Conference the Rev. Edmund L.
Hoffecker, will close a most notable
year as pastor of Wesley Church,
Dover. The unfortunate incidents
preceding DR.. Hoffecker's appoint
ment to this pastorate and the seri-
GUS troubles which he has had to
face are, in part, known. 1t is not
necessary to recount them, nor to
go into detail, nor to consider here
the merits of any religious contro-
versy or contention. He came to
Dover without a murmur or COM
plant, in obedience to the authority
of his church, at a time when the
prospect was anything but bright
and when the place TO which he was
assigned was lin no large demand.
The result of his ministry speaks
for itself. No man at Conference
will have the right to hold a higher
head, and none deserves better of
his brethren and his church. Dover

known to but few, which his father had
shown him. So he turned into a small
gulch that ran south almost at right
angles with the main ravine, followed
it about mile and, climbing a ridge,
continued up its white backbone until
he gained the pine clad summit.
How he walked! The sweat was
pouring from him when he began his
descent of the east side of the range,
and he felt the effects of the heavy
climb. Once he stopped and endeayored
to gain a view of the far off desert
hills, miles below, but the snow still
fell, enveloping the surrounding coun-
try like thick veil that the eye could
not penetrate.
The whole afternoon Tim struggled
on, sliding and slipping down a steep
embankment, sprawling up the side of
slope, or digging himself out of a
drift that had appeared to be anything
but solid snow Tired but happy. he
at last found himself in the rocky
depths of Marble canyon. He could
almost tell the number Of steps now to
the point where the Saline valley road
dropped from the Big Cowhorn meadow
into the rocky bottom OF the canyon.
Bravely he trudged on trying to
keep up steady pace, but admitting
to himself that his greatest efforts
were feeble ones. Further, and what
gave him more concern, was the fact
that he fell into the habit of resting.
He found he was not able to walk a
hundred yards without pausing and he
feared that these delays, short as tbev
were meant more to his friends than
they did to him. And every time he
thought of this the more alarmed he
grew and the harder he fought against
the weakness. But without success.
Even the binding snow, that had at
first seemed as nothing to the yigor
of his youth, was lending it's aid
against him. Again and again as ne
stumbled on it buffeted and beat him.
and each and every falling flake was
turned into spiteful. little light that
pricked his eyes until they felt sore
and swollen. Then after a long. long
time night came.

dian Fatty Jack-piled from their seats
and pulled the harness from the six
horses. They had come no farther than
10 miles. but already snow was nearly
axle deep and the animals were tired
by the heavy uphill drag A hearty
meal was cooked, the teams fed and the
men. taking only such supplies as might
be Of immediate use, started to leave.
You take care of camp, Tim" said
Fowler, when the boy made as if to
follow. I'D rather you'd not take any
chances on this trip. And say, Tim" as
young Bender turned away, 'ff you
don't hear from us by noon day after
tomorrow harness up and drive back to
town. Wen leave it all to YOU"
With that they were gone, and Tim,
alone and disappointed, proceeded to
make down his bed for the night. But
he could not sleep. He felt that he had
not been treated right; that the con-
stable had underestimate him; that he
was not being allowed to help; and be-
cause he was confident of himself he
felt the rebuff more keenly
He was still engaged with his
thoughts when the wind died and the
snow began to fall. A look into the
sky told him that the storm clouds
above were receiving reinforcements
from the Sierra side of the valley.
When morning finally dawned he
scrambled out OF Ded, IL still showed
heavily, and Tim decided that two feet
had fallen during the night. He won
dered uneasily if his friends had made
the summit, six miles away, and how
far they had journeyed or if they had
lost, their way. After while he began
to worry The more he thought of his
inactivity the more restless he became.
Toward noon, as the storm showed no
signs of abating, he could bear the sus-
lOnVRF RinHinGr his faaf
gunny sacks to keep out the cold, he
broke a bale of hay to tide the animals
over until his return and, equipped
with provisions, struck out over the
snow.
But he did not keep up canyon as
his friends had done. There was a
shorter route into Marble canyon,

BIG DEALS IN
REAL ESTATE
Considerable Money In
VOWED In Transactions
During the Past Week.
ONE WAS FOR $1,000

Several large real estate deals
were effected during the past week.
involving sums of considerable mag
nitude. Probably the most import
ant was the sale of a parcel in State
street, opposite school No. 2. The
land fronts fifty feet on State street
and includes a three-story dwelling
and store. Cornelius Convery dis
posed of the property to Nicholas
Boehmer. While the actual figure of
the consideration is not stated, it is
believed to be in the vicinity of
$1,000. The land and building
were formerly owned by Philip
Gabriel.
During a single week the Sewaren
Realty and Investment Company dis
posed of forty lots Of their tract at
Sewaren. The sales were made
through Robert P. Judge, local
agent, who has offices In the Burke
building at State and Centre streets.
The Sewaren lots range in value
from SIS to $3.50, with a few lower
and some higher. The lots appear
to be a good Investment and should
sell rapidly.
Through the N. A. Nielsen agency
two lots at Green Hills were dis
posed of during the past week to Ole
Martinusen. Lars Peter Henderson
sold, through the same agency, to
Nicholas LaForge, a dwelling at 542
Sayrs avenue.
Pierce & Son disposed of consid-
cradle property during the past
| week. Ole Olson sold to John Kut-
cher, through Pierce, a valuable
piece of property on Watson avenue.
| Henry Fricker purchased from Peter
| Nelson two dwellings at SGT and 529
