Oscar Schmidt, pastor of the Ger
man Lutheran church, and Miss
Amelia Bluemke joined hands in

eliminated a pretty romance which

course of true love never runs
smoothly.
The marriage was celebrated in
the pretty German Lutheran church
at o o'clock this morning and all
of the congregation of the Rev.
Schmidt was out to see him mar
ried. The pastor of the German
Lutheran church of Loveland per-
formed the ceremony and best
friends of the couple attended them
to the altar.
The church was decorated with
cut flowers and potted plants and
Miss Bluemke made very pretty
bride as she stood, the center of the
wedding party, gowned in white
and wearing wedding veil and
carrying roses. The ceremony was
most impressive one and follow
! ing it the newly married pair and
/ friends were driven to the home OF
John Paul where a big wedding
| feast was served.
Miss Bluemke has made her home
with the j. NJ. Kinsinger family for
several years and is a great social
favorite The Rev. Schmidt has
been pastor of the German Luth-
eran church here for several years
and has built up fourishing con-
gregation. Recently he purchased
nice cottage in Evans, furnished

KELSEY HAS
QUIT new JOB

Fort Lupton, April 23.-Owing to
work previously contracted Charles
Kelsey, recently appointed road
overseer in this district by County
Commissioner Hodgson, resigned
his new position this morning. This
is quite a disappointment to his
friends as Kelsey was considered
good man for the place.
Mr.. Kelsey contracted to do
large job of plowing in the Denver
Greeley Valley irrigation district
which will require much of his time
for some time to come and for this
reason could not find time necessary
to devote to the work attendant on
that of road overseer.
With MIR. Kelsey eight other Fort
Iuptop men with their crews start
ed to the country ten miles east OF
here to plow and at least 1000
acres will be broken by them before
their return. Among them are
Phil Moan and Hugh WinbOurn and
all will use big gang plows in turn
ing the soil for the first time. The
Denyer-Greeley Valley irrigation
district receives water for the first
time this year and hundreds OF
acres will be planted to their hrst
crop. a.. ~. A,.AAaAaa.l1lE

FARMER DIES
MYSTERI0USLY

Fort Collins, April 23.-Andrew
Peterson. a farmer, 10, who has
been living alone on farm eight
miles northwest of this city, is dead,
presumably as the result of injur-
les received when his chicken house
was demolished by the wind. There
was no witness to the accident, nor
did the aged man make any clear
statement before his death, but
from his remarks made when in a
semi-conscious condition 1t is be-
lieved that he was attempting TO
save his chickens and prevent the
destruction of the chicken house
when he received the fatal injuries.
He was found by neighbor, who
called to see if the storm had done
any damage to the aged mans prop
erty. He found him laying beside
the bed, unconscious, the bed COW
ers pulled down beside him. His
shoes had been removed and he was
evidently attempting to get into
bed when he fell exhausted to the
floor.
A physician was summoned from
Laporte. but the injuries were SO
severe that the man never rallied
He was badly bruised all over the
body and severely injured Internal
ly. He became semi-consc1ous Mon
'dav and talked about the wind. He
stated that he was unable to Keep
the chicken house from blowing
away but whenever he was asked
about his injuries would insist that
he was not hurt.

from the waters of the mountain
bitches and provided system to
cost complete about $4,000. The

ROOSEVELT REPUBLICANS
CHANGE NAME or CLUB TO
The PR0CRESSIVES OF WELD

The Roosevelt Republican club
IN the future will be known as the
Progressive Republican club of Weld
county. The change was adopted
at meeting Friday night and a
final draft OF the platform was also
accepted by the club
Inc idea in changing the name
was to bring into the membership
all progressive republicans, includ-
ing those who might be for La Fol
lette or any other avowed progress
sive candidate.
Following is the declaration of
principles adopted:
Declaration of Principles
We, the members of the Progress
siye Republican club of Weld
County, Colorado, in meeting duly
assembled, hereby declare our allie
glance to progressive Republican
principles and more specifically de-
clare as follows:
lst, We are opposed to all re-
ationary theories of government, in
nation, state and county. which
would refuse to the masses of the
people Their full participation in
popular government,W We declare that
no man is so wise or great that he
has right to govern other men
without their consent: that the
safe guard of the peoples liberties
is in the highest development of
popular government, to the end
that government of, by and for the
people may be an assured fact.
End. For our judicial officers,
United States senators and men,
bers of congress, state senate and
lower house, we especially favor
men who are in sympathy with pro-
gressive principles and in accord
with the highest development of
popular government. We therefore
pledge ourselves to use all honor
able means to procure the selection
of such men to these offices.
3rd. We believe in the initiative
and referendum. We would use
them whenever necessary, nDt to
supplant representative govern
ment, but to supplement and con-
troll it. We favor such proposed
changes in the present law as will
insure the greatest economy in its
operation and the greatest possible
publicity of the measures proposed.
4th. We favor laws providing for

Fort Lupton, April 23.-With the
large amount of gravel taken from
the excavation. for the new st. John
mercantile building. the streets of
Fort Lupton are being put in fine
shape and it is believed the terrible
condition in which they have been
during wet weather. since they re-
ceived a coating of clay last fall,
will be eliminated.
The excavation for the building
was completed today. Its dimen-
sions are 40 by 1872 feet and the

same DEAL
ON WATER
IS WANTED
WINDSOR TOWN BOARD WANTS
no RENEW CONTRACT WITH
GREELEY FOR WATER FOR
TOWN-DOG LAW THE SAME

Windsor, April 23.-This town
wants to renew its water contract
with the city of Greeley by which it
may continue to draw water for
domestic purposes directly from
Greeley's main line which passes
through Windsor. For this purpose
q committee was appointed from the
town council at its meeting last
night and the committee OF three
will meet the Greeley council soon,
as the Windsor contract expires in
May. Windsor pays the city of
Greeley a water rent OF $4,000 an
nually. 1t hopes, of course, to Sc
cure more favorable terms on its
new contract.
Windsor owns its own water
main system which was built sew
eral years ago when the town board
had pumping plant and tank
system. The town has its own vol
unteer fire company which with
the present system gives ample pro-
lection from fire. A fire alarm for
the town is necessary, however, as
the only alarm now in use is the
rim of a big car wheel hung in the
town square upon which the alarm
is pounded Agents for various
fire alarm systems have visited
Windsor, but their systems are
thought too expensive for present
installment.
The embargo has not yet been
raised on dogs in Windsor and will
not be for some time. Mayor Frye
is keeping the safe side and al
though rabies have not appeared IN
any dogs recently the fact that two
dogs were undoubtedly afflicted by
the disease some weeks ago makes
the authorities very cautious IN re-
moving the quarantine.

Eaton, April 23.-Suffering with
a peculiar disease for several
months Lois Twigges, the fourteen
year old daughter of f. 7. Twigges,
living north OF here has developed
the only real case of Pellagra ever
in the state is the opinion of the
physician who has attended and
studied the case of the young girl
who at present is much better and
gives evidence of recovery from her
peculiar ailment.
For weeks DR.. George II. Candlin,
the attending physician has been
almost certain that the child was
suffering from pellagra and is con-
fdent now that this is so, so well
defined are the symptoms. Al
though Lois Twigges has been eN-
tremely i'll and her condition
brought on pneumonia, the fact that
she is so young is in her favor and
every treatment known to science is
being administered.
The Twigges family came from
Georgia several years ago and since
their residence here has been back
several times The opinion is that
while there the girl contracted the
disease whose origin is still puzzil-
ing the medical world, but which is
generally belived to come from eat
ing musty corn meal.
The first sign of the disease
manifested itself on the girls HANDS
arms and Ease in a dark rash. Gel-
ting better of this she started 70
