grogshops, where he was stripped
of his money, his character and

And by chance there came down
a certain moderate drinker that

New Eootway Completed

The work of putting in the foot
way on the North side of the
bridge was resumed Monday after
a delay of ten days, waiting for
bolts of the proper length. The
work is completed and has been
thrown open to the public. While
one foot-way served every purpose
at present it was thot best to bal
ance the bridge by placing IA walk
on the north side and then there
would be no danger of throwing
the structure out of line. The
county furnished the lumber and
the city pays for the labor.

Nettie Wolf Passes Away

Nettie Wolf, the invalid daught-
er of Mrs. F. G. Wolf, died at the
residence of Mrs. Wolf in Denver
at 8 o'clock last Friday morning.
The funeral took place Sunday
afternoon at 2 p. m. from the Nash
chapel, 1925 fremont st Denver,
and the remtins were laid to rest
in Paramount cemetary.
Henrietta I. Wolf was born in
the month of February, 1877, at
the ranch on Brush creek, where
her parents were living at the time.
She was raised here in Saratoga
and was known to us all as a sweet,
lovable girl, whose first thot was
always for some n else. For the
past ten years she was afflicted
with some kind of spinal trouble
which made walking very difficult
at any time and at times she was
entirely helpless. She was the re-
cipient of the most tender care
and every known remedy was
sought for her benefit, but nothing
gave more than temporary relief.
By her sweet and patient dispo-
sition she Won the love of every
one who knew her and the an
nouncement of her death has ser
we'd to draw out many beautiful
expressions of regard for the de-
parted and of kindly love and SYM
pathy for the devoted mother and
sisters she has left behind.
Mrs. Wolf was quite i'll or the
body would have been brot to this
place for burial. She was not
able to attend the funeral even
there in Denver.

and shale and it is necessary to
shoot the ground and then sluice
the rock and dirt out with water
from the ditch which they run
thru the workings. They are run
ming two shifts and keep the work
going night and day. They are
making all speed possible in order
that they may be able to fill the
reservoir before the flood waters OF

Prisoners Escape With Guard

Three prisoners from the Wyo-
ming penitentiary at Rawlins es.
capped from that institution last
Thursday. The three men in
charge of a guard by the name of
Dudley, were sent with a team out
to a place called Coal Gulch for a
load of clay. When they did not
return at l O'Clock the warden
started an investigation. The
team was found some miles from
town and the wagon also, the lat
ter having been tumbled over a
rocky cliff. The tracks of only
three men led away from the wag.
on.
One of the men had only three
or four days more to serve, another
one not to exceed a month and the
other only eight months. Why
they should make an ettempt to
escape is a mystery, unless they
had gotten hold of some whiskey,
all got drunk and lost all care for
the result.
Rawlins, Wyo, June 6-F. j..
Dudley, the guard at the Rawlins
penitentiary who has been practi-
cally given up as dead since the
escape of three convict under his
care a few days ago, returned to
the prison accompanied by one of
the men supposed to have escaped
a l7-year-old boy named A, Camp
bell, and says the other two men
made their way south into Colo
RADIO. The guard and Campbell
each tell a horrible tale of woe
with reference to their narrowing
experience. They say the two
prisoners took them unawares
while working on the public high
way and tied them securely with
ropes, compelled them to abandon
the team and wagon and walk
with them a distance of over forty
miles, until they reached the Col
orado state line, then liberated
them and commanded them to
keep quiet until they reached
under penalty of death.
The two convicts, according to
this story, continued their way
south on foot. The experience of
Dudley and Campbell would make
a fairly good blood and thunder
dime novel.

James Gresory-Ex-Invalid


When the train from the North
came in Monday a great, big man,
over six feet in height, stepped up
to us and said: "How2" 1t took
only a second look to convince us
that we had been saluted by James
X. Gregory, of Colorado Springs.
He said he felt fine. land he cer-
tainly looked it) and had come up
to enjoy the air of the valley and,
incideutlv to look the business
situation over. AS We walked
along to the hotel we fell to raking
our memory over and we recollect-
ed a time when Jim" Gregory
did not look quite so healthy and
robust.
MI. Gregory was raised here in
the valley, Our first remember
ance of him, some 80 years ago,
was of a little, slender lad, none
too strong and with more hands
and feet than he knew what to do
with. His father, James Gregory,
(who by the way is 81, is hale and
hearty, still retains his eye-sipht
and hearing,) WAS the pioneer cat
tleman of the valley and built a
ranch house up where B. T. Ryan
lived for so many years. In 1879
Mr.. Gregory sold out TO Tom
Ryan and went back to Missouri,
and his son James went with him.
But Missouri held few attractions
for a lad who had ever lived in
Wyoming, aud whenever he could
get the chance he would make a
bee line for Wyoning-which was
pretty often.
He never seemed a strong man,
but about ten years ago, he came
near passing in his checks. He
was bed.fast and not able to speak
above a whisper. He longed for
Wyoming and, as he was certain
to die there, they hardened to his
pleadings and he was soon on a
train bound for the Rocky Mount
aims.
He lived by sheer force of will
while the train dragged it's weary
length thru Missouri, Iowa and
the lower reaches of Nebraska.
Pretty soon they began the climb
toward the mountains and the air
became cooler and more invigor-
ating. They opened a window
and propped him up SO that the
mountain breeze could fan his
face. The result was surprising.
The train met a blizzard coming
down from the mountains but its
blasts we're as wine to the invalid.
With every mile he gained
strength and by the time the train
pulled into Cheyenne he had re-
covered his voice.
In those days passengers for
Saratoga got off at Fit. Steele and
took Scribner's four horse stage
for this place. Mr.. Gregory was
able to make the trip, and when
we saw him the afternoon of his
arriv al here he was walking the
streets and smoking a cigar.
To see him today you would
never imagine that his life had
hung at any time by a slender
thread, and he can be reckoned a
least one man whose life was saveC
by "a blizzard And last but moi
least he weighs about 255.
