Chas. H. Cheese of Calhan, Colo, is
spending some time in Glenwood for an
attack of hay fever and rheumatism
which he has found from previous ex-
perience readily yield to the climate
and mineral waters of Glenwood
Springs. While here Mr.. Cheese took
a run down to Grand Valley for few
days visit with his old friend and
neighbor, O. F, Dickson.
Ray Dickson returned Tuesday night
from a short trip to Colorado Springs.
He reports that tourist town overflow
ing with people from eastern and south
ern states and says he was surprised 20
find the number of people who had
motored up from Oklahoma and Texas.
We scarcely realize how many of those
tourists would drive their cars across
to GlenwOod if we had a good auto
road connecting this place and Colorado
Springs and Denver.
The engineers for the Rio Grande
road this week surveyed and staked
off in West Glenwood an eight stall
round house and then offered Judge
Noonan $3.50 an acre for six acres of
ground which they will need if they
erect the $4,000 building they have
planned. Judge Noonan would not ac-
cept their offer and Wednesday they
began condemnation proceedings, de-
posting $500 in the district court to
pay for the land They seem to mean
business.
Two men were killed by last Sunday
night s Rio Grande passenger train
No. 6 while beating their way over
the road. One was a young man named
Ralph B. Grimsley who was killed near
Grand Valley and the other was an un-
known man who was ground beneath
the wheels about two miles this side
of Shoshone. Farnum took charge of
both bodies and Grimsley's body was
shipped to Kansas City on the order
| of his parents and the unknown was
buried in the Potter's field in the
Glenwood cemetery.
