BRowN-BURKE.

Mr.. and Mrs. Orville l.. Brown were
outgoing passengers on the eastern
this morning bound for Pueblo, where
they will spend a week or two, be-
fore continuing to Lamar, where Mr..
Brown has position in tine sugar beet
factory
Mr.. and Mrs. Brown are newly
weds, the ceremony having been per-
formed April II, by Rev. w. F. Highly,
the marriage being very quiet with
none but members Of the family in
attendance. The bride is perhaps bet
ter known in this city by her maiden
name of Miss Jennie Adelaide Burke,
the pretty daughter of Mrs Nina
Burke, who has for number of years
had charge of the d. & X. G. sec
ton house here. The groom's full
name is Orville Leonard Brown. He
has been n resident of Durango for
the past year, and until recently was
employed at the Graden Mill.
Durango friends who have known
the bride from childhood, and have
admired her for her pleasant manneis
and pretty, friendly ways, as we'll as
for her good looks, will wish her the
very best of happiness and the good
fortune she deserves. While perhaps
these same friends do not know her
husband SO well, they extend congrat-
ulations and best wishes to him also
In these expressions Of good will The
Herald joins.
Young Mrs. Browns travelling dress
was blue serge tailor made trimmed
with white. Her hat was pretty
straw in the two colors wreathed with
blue corn flowers, that deepened the
blue of the wearer's eyes, and proved
to be very becoming.

BOSTON, May 1.-George Fred

"The result in Massachusetts prac-
tically decides the Democratic contest
as Governor Wilson mrst now disap-
pear as candidate. Clark carried
the great pivotal states in .be west,
Colorado, Nebraska, Arkansas, Mis-
souri,, Iowa, Kansas ana Illinois and

"Wilson has but few scattering
delegates from Oklahoma, Wisconsin
and Pennsylvania.

victory in which rejoiced SO greatly.
i felt profoundly that Governor viii
sons nomination would divide the
progressive forces; that Mr.. Clark
would unite all factions of the party.
81 believe the contest within the
Republican party makes victory in
November easy for US no matter who
may be selected by the Republicans,
therefore have felt most intense anx-
iety lest our party should make an
error In its nomination.

Mr.. Tsmay's testimony scattered the
blame for the Titanic disaster among
half dozen of his assistants and en-
ployers. He admitted the public was
not informed of the Titanic disaster
until Monday night, but swore he sent
out the news himself at o'clock that
morning that put the blame on the
Marconi company. He admitted he
had received warning of the ice on
Sunday but he said that the captain
also got it and that the captain alone
was responsible for not needing it.

YESTERDAYS INCOMING EAST
ERN BUMPS INTO ROCK
DELAYED FOUR HOURS

The eastern train due in Durango
last evening at 7:15 was delayed over
four hours yesterday by big rock on
the track about one and half miles
east of the Garfield monument. The
rock, which was about the size Of the
baggage trucks in use at the depot,
was around curve and could not be
seen by the engineer in time to stop
The air brakes were put on before the
engineer and his fireman jumped to
safety upon the hillside, and held the
cars on the track.
The locomotive, which struck the
rock with some force, was derailed
and in addition to some minor damage
one of the cylinders was put out OF
commission. After four hours hard
work, the engine was patched up and
put back on the track, where she be-
longed and the train proceeded on its
way.

PRICES OF
GROCERIES
Going up With Prices Of
Meat Caused by Cold
Weather

Western Press.
CHICAGO, May 1.-Groceries have
been drawn along in the upward shoot
of meat prices. Grocerymen, how
ever, do not blame the producers but
accuse the weather man as partly re-
sponsible for "the high cost Of living
in other fields. Scarcely an article in
the grocery store sells for less today
than it did year ago. One grocer
says sugar alone has gone down in
price. A year ago it came near reach
ing the highest point in its history.
Potatoes, coffee, butter, eggs, cheese,
canned goods and flour all have taken
Il good sized increase. The cold win
ter is blamed for some increases; the
late spring is blamed for more. The
failure of certain crops in 1911 also
comes in for share.

THE PROGRESSIVE MERCHANT

A careful investigation has been
made and we have been well advised
that not an advertiser in The Herald
was found violating the law with ref
erence to the protection and sale of
food articles. 1t may or it may NOT
have anything to do with the adver-
tising, but it is probably true that
up-to-date merchants are not afraid to
advertise their goods and invite the
public to go and investigate the con
ditions for themselves. Then again
those merchants who advertise their
goods to the public take pride in being
in rank one and it is an incentive to
keep the stock up in good shape. The
increased sales warrant the wide
awake merchants in going to little
more expense in protecting the food
stuffs. The merchant who calls on
the public to come in and see his prod
uce, meats, etc, will advance his sales
so that it will not be necessary for
him to have spoiled meat on hand
or throw it away.

Arrange tntsrlAinmsntby
Schubert Symphony
Clubandlady Quartet

The Durango lodge Of Elks have
planned for an evening of music on
May q at the Red 8ien hall. The
Schubert Symphony club and Lady
Quartet of San Francisco, will furnish
the entertainment. That the evening
| Will be one Of pleasure may well be
imagined from what the Santa Cruz
(Cal.) Sentinel says concerning a
similar entertainment, which we give
below:
The Elks on Thursday gave one
Of their delightful evenings To their
friends, at the Casa Del Rey, where
they We're entertained by the Schubert
Symphony club and Lady Quartet of
San Francisco.
The garden room and lobby of this
famous hostelry lend themselves beau
tifully to just such occasions; elegant
and modern in all their furnishings
and appointments, these rooms with
their palms and ferns and potted
plants, among which chairs and set
tees are placed in groups for those
who wish to be seated together, light
up magnificently, forming most
brilliant picture reflected from every
side in mirrored walls reaching from
floor to ceiling. On Wednesday these
rooms held all that Santa Cruz can
boast of, in the way Of exclusive So
ciety, Of elegance. Of fashion, Of in
tellect, of beauty, and the sight was
dazzling so far MS the ladies are con
cerned. No one denies to the gentle
men their share Of intellect and good
looks, but they labor always under
the disadvantage Of looking all the
more sombre the nearer they come to
being dressed In the height Of good
taste for evening costume.
"The Schubert Symphony club and
the Lady Quartet.as ssA, ,beside prov
ing to be composed of splendid talent,
were original in many features. The
Lady Quartet sang the Wedding
March of Mendelssohn, in such ex-
quisite taste that they were most en-
Enthusiastically encored, and later in
the program Thomas Valentine Pn,
cell played the Pilgrims Chorus, as a
solo, on the ma dolin. This too. was
exquisite, and certainly an original
idea. Their selections were from a
wide range Of composers, and they
were familiar with them alike, Wag-
ner, Paganini, Strauss, Verdi, De Ko.
ven, Bazzini, Schubert and others
whose names are not so familiar. In
almost every case something chsro =
teristic had Deen introduced which did
not destroy me artistic effect, but
added new tone to old familiar airs
"a medley arranged from Fond
Memories, ny the Symphony club
was wondcif fully melodious produc
ton, mandolins and violin, and the
violinist had a. eady demonstrated his
skill on this instrument. Schubert's
Leise Flehen Meine Lieber" had also
been specially arranged for the Lady
Quartet, and was musical and most
harmonious ir this new arrangement.
"1'he solo ron Verdi, by Mis- Cor
der and Miss Purcell's 'Nita.' were
both encore !, and My Heart is Down
in Dixie ard Last Rose of Summer
were sung with feeling, taste and fine
expression.
"Nor were the humorous features
missing from their entertainment;
The Beauty Parlor' and 'Ths slf-
fragist,' by Miss Weatherington caus
ed great mefrinent.
Altogether it was a delightful! ev
ening, and vas brought to rather
late conclusion oy Ispast served in
