GLEANINGs AND COMMENT

by the discovery lies ,between
Stonington and Richfeld and has
heretofore been almost of no val
ue. The United States govern
ment has already taken official
notice of the discovery and it is
said that a geological survey will
be made to learn the extent of
the find. The Santa re railroad
is said to be planning cutoff of
its main line to pass through
Baca county, which was tipped
off by the Chieftain some six
weeks ago. The finding of wat
er will mean the irrigation of
that country and the immigra-
ton of thousands OF people. =
Holly Chieftain.
The region affected by the dis
covery will probably cover the
east half of the county and prob
ably the whole county. The dis
coveries SO far consist of seven
or more wells in what is known
as the Blaine section.

Obituary.

Archibald C. Belts was born in
Jamestown, New York, Aug. 2S, 1910.
passed from this life April ID, 1911, at
Hillsdale. Okla, aged 10 years, Z mos.
and " days.
In early life he moved with his par
ents to Minnesota, from there to Wis
consin, where he remained for several
years. He was united in marriage to
Mary E. Murray in 1864, becoming the
stepfather of two sons and two daugh-
ters, to MIR. and Mrs. Belts was born
one daughter, Lille M. Yokum, they
also adopted one son, making har-
monious family of six children. The
deceased profess ed faith in Christ ear
ly in life. He united with the Congre-
gational church. He was of Puritanic
stock; firm in his convictions and pro-
gressve in thought. Later in life he
united with the M. E. church and did
earnest service in pioneer work. But
feeling more at home in his own de-
nomination. he again united with tire
Congregational church at Hillsdale, re-
naming true and faithful member
until he stepped beyond.
He was n Jealous christian. enjoyed
his religion and was not afraid to let it
be known. Now he is promoted where
there are no more partings or good
loss, a loving aged compa-ion, four
step-children, one daughter anc the
adopted son. He was a kind, loving,
loyal husband, a devoted father and a
true friend. What higher tribute could
be paid man than to say he was a
conscientious christian-an honest citi-
zen. He is gone from Us in visible
form, but he will ever linger in our
memories as one whom we loved and
revered.
Rev Granthum, pastor of the Con-
gregational church at Hillsdale, Okla,
preached the funeral sermon, selecting
for his text passage of scripture of
ten quoted by the deceased, second
Timothy, chapter, 7th and Sth verses,
have fought a good fight, l have fin
.ished my course, ! have kept the faith.
Henceforth there is laid up for me a
crown of Righteousness, which the Lord,
the righteous judge, shall give me at
all them also that love his, appearing,
beckoning hand. Asleep in Jesus, Rest
ing, Sweetly Resting, all favorite
hymns of his, we're beautifully render
ed by the choir. The casket was COW
cred with floral offerings, laid with
loving hands by relatives and kind
synpathizing neighbors. We laid him
to rest in the Hillsdale cemetery.
The bereaved ones can only look for
ward to the reunion beyond. where
there will be no separations. God is
saying come unto me all ye who labor
and are heavy laden, and l will give
you rest.
Gone, Oh! our hearts are aching,
All the world seems cheerless and gray
Since the loving face of father
Was hid from our sight away.
Written in loving remembrance by
his daughter] Lille M. Yokum.

Standing by the homestead
tr The Denver land Office has
declared that a homesteader who
is absolutely compelled to absent
himself from his land in order to
earn sufficient money on which
to live while proving up, is en-
titled to patent, and contest may
not be brought against him. If
he shows good faith and the evil
hence is such as to indicate that
he has no intention of violating
the homestead law, no one can
take the land away from him. =
