RACE
MEET ASSURED
Arthur T. Gormley Arranges Seized
ule of Fast Events for June Dur
ing Chautauqua and Other
Celebrations.-Is Back.

Added to the celebrations planned
for the month of June with the great
chautauqua gathering of this city,
the Western Colorado Racing circuit
is planning for a race meet here
which will eclipse anything ever held
in Grand Junction aside from the.
regular fall fair program.
Probably rs horses from western
Colorado, Utah and as far east as
Illinois will make the circuit of the
Western Slope and run for the heavy
purses which are to be offered.
Secretary Arthur T. Gormley re-
turned last evening from Delta.
where he attended a meeting of the
directors of the association and
where plans were laid for the meet.
Delta. Montrose, Hotchkiss and
Grand Junction will be on the June.
circuit, with possibly Glenwood
Springs. Delta is planning a big
Fourth of July celebration and has
secured that date for the races. Grand
Junction will probably have it's meet
on June 20, or just previous to the
opening of the chautauqua. This will
be definitely determined, however, BY
the action of the chautauqua associ-
alton.
j. f. Baker. with his string Of
fine horses. headed by Charley
Worth, will be here from Kankakee.
ILL.,, this week and will Immediately
put his animals in training for the
spring meet. Brainard and others OF
the Delta country have several fast
strigns which will be in readiness
for the event
Mr.. Gormley arranged for the
classification of the races for the
fall fair, cutting out some of the.
less popular events. The purses will
be about the same as those offered
last year. The horses. however. Will
probably be of better quality.

planatory notes will aid the reader
in understanding the maps.
Raymond Ruhl, former assistant
observer at the local office, will ar
rive probably next Sunday to take
up the map work again.

the fruit from the spring frosts and

CHAUTAUQUA IS
ASSURED; FUND
GUARANTEED
Necessary Guarantee is Secured and
Organization Effected. - Now to
Make Plans to Secure Meet
ing Place for Gathering.

Practically the entire 81 300 guar
antee demanded by the chautauqua
people for the 10-days' course next
June has been raised and DIR. Fisher
will be wired tonight at Pocatello that
this city will take the course.
The problem now facing the local
promoters of the chautauqua is to
find place large ENOUGH to seat the
enormous crowds who will attend the
meetings.
1t was suggested that a Temporal
ry structure might be connected with
a portion of the grand stand at the
fair grounds. but this was found
impracticable.
Another idea was to rent the big
tent at Glenwood Springs which was
used to house the democratic con-
vention five years ago. This will
take care of 1000 people comforta-
bly, and can probably be secured at a
low figure.
j. II. Rankin suggests the remod-
cling of the exhibition hall. This
will accommodate LOO people cas-
lily, but this is hardly large enough
it is feared, for some of the crowds
who will attend the more important
sessions of the chautauqua.
The $1,000 guarantee, however, is
not the total cost of the talent. The
speakers and entertainers will prob
ably cost something over $4,000 be-
sides advertising, and other ex-
penses and the providing of a suit
able meeting place.
1t is belived, however, that there
will be sufficient funds raised from
the sale of tickets to provide for all
expenses.
The list of speakers now given is
entirely suggestive and it is believed
can be largely added to and i'm
proved upon without considerable in
crease in expense.
The organization of an associa-
ton was made and resulted as fol-
lows: Sen. Horace T. belong. pres
ident; F. e. Barney, secretary: R. C.
Walker, Rev. S. b. Warner and |. A.
Moon on the executive committee
1t will be known as the Western
Slope Chautauqua association.

 The law requires that the name of every witness who appears before the grand jury shall be endorsed at the cot of the indictment and that copy ,f the testimony shall be delivered to he defendant within five days of the citing of the trial.
