RAISE PURSE
FOR A FAMILY
The Men Working on the City Noun
tain Water System Nobly Come to
the Assistance of an Unfortu-
nate Fellow Workman.

Brotherly love abounds wherever
men with sympathetic hearts and
charitable souls are found 1t
abounds as literally in construction
camp made up of men of all classes
and from all walks of life, as any
where else
This fact was brought out strong
ly yesterday at the Hannah Creek
mountain water system camp of Com
missioner Vedder's, when large
number of the laborers, as well as
the bosses ''chipped in" most literally
and raised a fund of seventy-siX dol
lars in less than an hours time for
the benefit of VIM. Thomas, labor
er employed on the Hannah Creek
system, and his family.
n good while ago Thomas had a
foot crushed in an accident and he
had a long seige of suffering but fl
nally was able to get about although
his injured foot was far from healed.
He secured promise of work on the
water system from Mr.. Vedder. His
wife was i'll and Thomas determined
to get work, although not able to do
any hard labor. He made his wife as
comfortable as he could and went to
the construction camp. He worked
faithfully but his injured limb grew
worse and he is in very bad condi-
tion, and will have to secure special
treatment. His wife is still in very
poor health.
Touched by the pathetic conditions
and the grit and determination of the
unfortunate man the men at the camp
determined to raise purse to help
him out and it was a genuine, ready
and whole-souled response.
The purse will prove of great help
to the unfortunate family. 1t was Il
splendid deed on the part of the con-
tributors. The Sentinel has secured

Letters found on the person of the

his health. He became i'll between

Considerable money was found on

The transfer of goods was made
Saturday night, and yesterday and
while he has not wholly gotten his
goods arranged. he is doing business
in his new location.
The thing that first attracts atten-

be exactly the same as the new mod

and will probably be the only
drinking fountain in the lobby of any
clothing store in Colorado. This Is
an unusual and unique feature that
will attract no small amount of at
tention.
The windows have been floored
with matched hardwood and will be
lighted with more lights than the
whole store was in the old location.
The lighting arrangement in the
new store Will be extraordinarily
good. With the big plate glass front
and the entire rear of the building
in plate glass, the lighting is supple
mented with two heavy skylights,
shedding a direct and uniform light
throughout the entire building.
A system of Humphrey arcs will
make the place as Wen lighted at

The interior of the store is mod

main center, flanked on either side

CHARGES MADE
Fine Ranch Near Fruita Proved to be
Barren Tract OF Alkali Land, ].
W. Sheppard Charges-A Big
Suit Has Been Filed.

That he was swindled out of fine
home by a real estate man who pro-
posed to trade him splendid ranch
in this county, is the sensational
charge made by a prominent Loyeland
man in filing suit for some $40. 600
damages, The following dispatch

tails:

iel Hewitt, a Colorado Springs real

plant filed in the district court here

Sheppard alleges that Hewitt made
him proposition for an exchange Of
land, SHEPPARD, it is said. owned
farm with good buildings about one
and half miles from Loveland, and
also tract of land near Sterling.
He was offered, he complains, a fine
ranch near Fruita, and without seeing
the place he made the deal. He says
he packed up all of his household be-
longings and shipped them to Grand
Junction. He and his wife went to
Fruita and instead of finding a ranch
as described, he alleges he found
barren waste of alkali land which
was unfit for habitation and the re-
verse of the description given him.
His household goods were at Grand
Junction and he was without funds
to have them shipped back to Love
land.
He and his wife managed to get
back to Denver, he alleges, with $40,
the only money they had left. The
Loveland and Sterling properties had
been transferred to Hewitt, and Shep-
hard says he found himself penniless.
In addition to asking that the court
costs be assessed against~the dsfeud4
ant, Hewitt, Shepherd also asks that
the court give a body judgment and
that body execution be also issued.

Vincent Pleads for Roosevelt.

Immediately after the reading of
these resolutions Merle d. Vincent
of Delta, the recognized western Col

recognition. MIR. Vincent held a
proxy from the state committeeman
from Delta county.
Mr.. Vincent moved that the reso-

the endorsement of Roosevelt in
stead of for the endorsement of
Taft. He made an earnest plea for
Roosevelt as the man who can lead
the party to victory.
Following a discussion Mr. Vim

and the attendance was very large.
For two days Republican leaders and
committeeman had been pouring into
the city, and numberless caucuses
and conferences were held yesterday
and today. Chairman Jesse McDon-

order this morning.
Text of the Resolutions.
After preliminaries had been given
attention the following resolutions
were offered by Fred Roof, commit
teeman from Pueblo:
Resolved, That we, the Republi-
: can state central committee of Col
orado recognizes in the administra-
tion of President Taft an honesty in
the conduct of our national affairs
that promises much for the future of
our country.
AT all times and under all condi-
tions William Howard Taft has un-
falteringly stood for the constitution
al rights of the people and for prop
er yet vigorous enforcement of the
laws of our country.
He has richly earned at the hands
of his party a denomination for the
great office which he now fills so
admirably, and at the hands of the
people he deserves reelection.
We heartily endorse his renomi-
nation for the presidency and we
predict his reelection by an over
whelming popular and electoral
vote.
In all fairness he should be made
the Republican standard bearer in
1912 and we pledge to him our hear
ty and untiring support"
