THANKSGIVING BASKETBALL

Glenwood SO, Yampa 8. That was the
score of the game played Thursday eve
ming between the Glenwood and Yampa
high school basketball teams at the To-
cal gymnasium.
The Yampa players are a husky AMI
manly lot of fellows and will probably
outweigh our boys by few pounds
per man, but it was evident from the
, first that as to scientific knowledge
of the game they were entirely out
classed by the Glenwood players. There
was a woful lack of teamwork on the
part of the Gampas and also grea5
deal of fumbling and throughout the
entire evening they did not throw a
basket, their score of three being oo-
tanned entirely as penalties against
Glenwood.
Whatever interest there was in the
game was due to the splendid team
work of the Glenwood boys who were
at their best and they certainly won
the admiration of the visitors who noted
the marked Improvement in their work
this year. After the game the Glen
wood young folks entertained Their
visitors with dance.

LIKE A FLOWER GARDEN

Coming into the auditorium Hotel
the past week one would think he were
visiting the flower garden of America
or one of the beauty spots of the Rocky
Mountain region. The cause of this
great stir and over taxing of the ca
pacity of this popular hotel was due
to the fact that most all of the candi-
dates for the queen of the Apple Show
were stopping at this place and when
all the committees of both the western
and eastern slopes congregated in the
lobby and committee rooms, there were
certainly a lively time.
These Queens have been the attrac
tion of Denver for the past week, and
with the support of each candidate AS
sembled around her, the Auditorium
Hotel has been at its wits end to care
for their guests,
The management of the hotel ex-
presses regret for not being able to
take care of the many people who have
come to this place for accommodations.

GRAND JUNCTION
WILL CURB CLUBS
Society Boozeries unber the
In Peach City If New
Law Enforced
THE VETS WILL RESIST

Grand Junction, Nov 29-The first
effort ever made to prevent by muniei-
pal ordinance the sale of liquor by
clubs will be made at the next meeting
of the city council, when an ordinance
now being drafted by the city attor.
neys will be put up for passage.
The ordinance is not only pioneering
in the field of preventing the sale OF
liquor in clubs, but is also the most
drastic ever drawn up by any city, so
far as is known. That some of the
clubs will put up desperate resist
ance to the ordinance is generally un-
derstood
Clubs are specified under the general
terms of clubs, societies, fraternal as
sociations or associations of individu-
ais. The ordinance will make it un-
lawful to store, keep or possess any
malt, vinous or spurious liquors, no
matter what the alcohol percentage. 1t
will be Illegal to sell, drink, permit to
drink or give away any liquor and it
will be unlawful also to allow any of
the individuals of the club or society
to keep, sell, give away or allow to be
drunk, sold or given away, any fluid
of intoxicating quality whatsoever.
1t is direct blow at the private
clubs, no matter whether operated by
secret society or for commercial pur-
poses. 1t will reach, it is declared.
every dispenser of intoxicants in Grand
Junction, and will be the most import
ant blow at the distr,put1on of liquor
ever struck in the west.
Similar laws have been passed in the
states in the past, but it is absolutely
the first time municipality has ever
attempted to handle this industry How
far the ordinance will come in conflict
with state or federal laws will not be
known until the proposed ordinance is
tested in the courts, which it will be.
An important feature Of the ordi-
nance which the city attorneys intend
to incorporate into it will be the Grim
inal liability of officers and directors
as well as the barkeepers of the clubs.
The city council will have the matter
before them. probably next Tuesday,
and it is believed that the ordinance
will be passed without a dissenting
vote.

MORE BUSINESS
IN DISTRICT COURT
Burdette Smith Receives Long Sentence
Mrs. Mitchell Escapes Peni.
tentiary Term
MCCORMICK and PAulEY GUILTY

The last issue of the Post reported
the conviction of Burdette Smith for
murder and Mamie Mitchell for larceny
These defendants, with others have since
received sentence and Mccormick and
Pauley have since last Saturday been
declared guilty by juries.
In the case of Mccormick charged
with obtaining money under false pre-
lenses by selling to George Sievers in
surance stock other than what he rep.
resented it to be, the jury returned a
verdict of guilty little over an hour
after going to the jury room. 1t was
claimed that the jury was really pre-
pared to render verulct of guilty
without leaving the box, so strong was
the case the people made against the
prisoner, and no time was wasted in the
jury room in arguing the case, but the
instructions of the court were carefully
read before voting on the case, the first
ballot, it is said being unanimous for
Mccormick IS conviction. The prisoner
was remanded to Jail while his attor-
neys undertake to secure for him a new
trial.
A motion for new trial in the Ma
mie Mitchell case was presented to the
court Tuesday evening by Judge Ruck-
er. In support of this motion was pre-
sented an affidavit of "Happy Jack"
Beals to the effect that the day after
the killing of the steer in question he
saw grazing near Mrs. Mitchell's ranch
the steer belonging to the Paris
brothers which Mrs. Mitchell was said
to have butchered District Attorney
Gentry nullifed the effect of this aft
davit by number of others to the eff
feet that Beal's record for truth and
veracity was very bad.
A petition secured by leading club
woman and politician of Glenwood and
signed principally by women, asking
for leniency in sentence, was pushed
aside and ignored by Judge shumate
who declared that his was not court
of petition, but that it was his inten-
tion to be governed by the law and the
evidence. He then asked Mrs. Mitchell
if she had anything to say why seu-
tence should not be pronounced upon
her, and, approaching the court, sup
ported by her brother, she said:

artistic merit was given by the stud
ents of Colorado College last Saturday
evening, November 25, when the Ger

The comedyVas Benedict's "Die Hoch-

and took up only about an hour and
half of the evening The remainder
of the program was taken up by two
groups of Folk-songs, which were sung
by chorus of about thirty-five voices.
The chorus had been trained by Mr.. Il.
Howard Brown of Colorado Springs,
the leading voice teacher of the city,
and the rendition of these popular
songs, for which the German literature
and music is so famous, was an event
unique in the history of Colorado
Springs. Miss Beatrice Drach of Glen

MEEKER RA|ROAD
AGAIN PROMISED
Revival Of Former Rumors Of
the Building Of the New
Castle Meeker Road
BEGIN WORK IN SPE!NG

With more or less regularity comes
the promise of railroad to Meeker,
connecting the Grand valley country
either at or near New Castle or Rife.
What truth there may be in the rumors
that work is soon to begin on line
connecting New Castle and Meeker the
Post is unable to say, but it is to be
hoped that whatever further effort is
made in that direction may not prove
such complete flash in the pan as was
the effort made in that direction a
couple years ago. The latest is tine
following despatch from Meeker claim
ing that work will be started on the
new line next spring:
Meeker, Colo, Nov. 2S.-Meeker now
seems about to have its ancient rail
road dream realized, Judging from the
apparent activities in New York of the
promoters of the Meeker, Grand River
& Salt Lake railroad. The proposed
road is to be built out of New Castle,
at Salt Lake City. Actual construction
work is expected to begin in the spring.
The attention of the east is being di
rected toward the new project. This is
evidenced by the following communica-
tion from Joseph f. Stuckert of New
York. in which he asks for information
concerning the intentions of the Gar
field County Coal company of Rifle in
connection with the construction of the
4 line. His communication. addressed to
Secretary Hopwood of the Rifle Cham
her of Commerce, is in part as follows:
Gas 7 understand, this company (the
Garfield County Coal company may
operate rival line from your city, ac
cording to voluminous literature and
plans given to an investing public by
the Grand River, Meeker & Salt Lake
railroad hackers, but l appreciate tho
fact that there could only be one com
pany to ultimately operate. and my
query is to ascertain which one of the
two has the right of way and the money
to 90 ahead That one road will be
built seems now to be an established
fact I am interesting myself in the
underwriting of railroad bonds of
worth, and as I am very well acquaint-
ed with your section and also tho
section through which the preliminary
surveys are quoted to have been done,
7 am naturally attracted to this propo-
sition.''

FALL TREATMENT FOR
AMERICAN FOUL BROOD

The usual method of shaking as trear-
ment for foul brood, during the honey
flow, is not advisable in the fall after
the flow has slackened. A diseased
colony, deprived of combs and honey
with nothing but starters to build upon,
will not get enough honey stored to
winter. If diseased colonies are weak
in numbers it will probably be cheaper
to destroy the bees and render the
honey and wax. Where the colonies
are strong and the disease has not de-
pleted in numbers they may be shaken
upon solid combs of honey after brood
rearing has ceased This treatment will
require combs of honey entirely allied
so that no cells will be left in whiGn
the bees may store any of the infected
honey which they carry from the old
hive in their honey sacs.
Even if the disease has not gained =
foothold in the apiary, there may be as
many queenless colonies as diseased
ones. A queenless colony il the fall
cannot winter, so that very feasib),
plan is to shake the queenless colony
and the diseased colony into a clean,
new hive with starters on the stand OF
the diseased colony. The queen of the
foul colony is Gagged with the bees in
this new hive to prevent the swarm
from absconding, and to prevent tho
bees from the queenless colony stinging
the queen. After three days the combs
of honey from the queenless colony
may be put into the hive and the
frames of starters removed. The queen
may now be released and the bees will
be ready to form their winter nest
This transferring may be done during
September or October. The diseased
combs of honey may be rendered and
disinfected by boiling at least thirty
minutes in closed vessel.

The past week Messrs. Stoval &
Holmes Of Denver have closed contracts
with many cf the land owners in the
spring Pa'k GENTRY wrIch it is said
will insure a big reservoir project for
the irrigation of from 10000 to 10000
acres in that section, utilizing the Hotz
and Mclean ranches, upon which they
have secured options ,as a reservoir
site. They have signed up with the
Harris Brothers for 1,10O acres and
have many other contracts, so it was
said. The Post is not able to give the
details of the transaction as the editor
was not in when the gentlemen called
at this office to outline their plan. If
the deal goes through, as it now seems
almost certain to do, it will bring un-
der successful irrigation and cultivation
a large area of choice agricultural land,
well located as to shipping facilities,
and will greatly add to the productive
agricultural area of Garfield county.

Methodist church and although he and
his family have been put to considera-
Bile inconvenience on account of the
fact that their goods, by reason of
poor freight service, have not yet

mination which augurs for success.
Rev. Klein preached his first sermon in
Glenwood last Sunday morning and at
both the morning and evening service
he was greeted with congregations con-
siderably in excess of the ordinary
Glenwood church attendance and those
who were fortunate enough to hear Mr..
Klein in his initiatory sermons are

REBEKAHs ENJOY OFFICIAL VISIT

Yampah Rebekah lodge No. 73 last
Tuesday evening enjoyed an official Wis
it from the president of the Rebekan
assembly, Mrs. Carrie L. Steel of
Grand Junction.
Mrs. Steel is one of the foremost
Rebekahs in Colorado and her visit
was greatly enjoyed by the local lodge.
She has kept busy in her work of Off
cial visitation and is ambitious to visit
every lodge in the jurisdiction during
her term of Office, but as there ara
about 1875 lodges in the state it can be
seen that the lady will have a very
busy year before here if she realizes
on her expectations.
Mrs. Steel made a very encouraging
address to the lodge and gave some
wholesome advice. Interesting remarks
were made by several members and
visitors present. After ,ne close of
the lodge all partook of delightful
repast prepared by the sisters.

Civil Business

Monday the case of Joseph F. Peck
VS.. Yeomans ct al was on for trial, Cliff
G. Rowe representing the plaintiff and
J. G. Starkweather of Denver and Tay
lor Brothers or Glenwood appearing for
the defendants.
This is a case in which Peck was or
dered by Judge Owersin 1904 to change
the point of diversion for water taken
from Thomas creek. Peck and other
owners were ordered to build a ditch
from Thomas creek by means of which
his water could be carried to his land
without turning it into Prince creek as
had been done Heretofore. Although
Peck failed and refused to carry out
the order of the court by constructing
his part of the ditch he now appears to
believe that his ditch right has been
confscated by the defendants in the
present suit. When Peck's testimony
had been submitted the court sustained
motion of the defendants for non
suit, but granted Mr.. Rowe ten days in
which to prepare bill of exceptions.
Court adjourned over Thanksgiving,
but is in session today.
