minds me of one more yarn which

end. Here it is:
There are three business men in
Wa-Keeney who look so much alike
that neither friend nor foe can tell
them apart Everyone of them is as
good as coal in the barn and yet their
creditors are slow TO send in bills for
rear OF landing on the wrong man,
and when all three of them are in
sight at one and the same time there
is great lodging among the debtor
class. 1t is both comical and en-
barassing and. to add to the general
confusion, each of the boys is an en-
bryo candidate for mayor at the next
city election. However, there is no
ill will among them. They have had
consultation over the matter and
have decided that each must wear
some sort of distinctive badge for the
relief of the public mind

MEDICINE BOWS NEW vIRGINIAN

Were Owen Wister to write his
s:Virginian'' today, he would neces-
sarily have to materially change the
setting of his story, for where stood
the one-story frame boarding house
of the old days, now stands four
story hotel bearing the name hero
of this tale. The new Virginian is
of cement block construction, built
and operated by August Grimm. The
building contains forty-five rooms,
luxuriously furnishrd-instead OF the
tin wash basin, the old stove and the
kerosene lamp, patrons of the Vir-
gilman enjoy the modern equipment
of hot and cold running water, prl-
vate baths, steam heat and electric
lights.
Medicine Bow, located on the main
line of the Union Pacific, has advan-
ced in other respects as well, and
should the '.Virginian" stop here to-
day, he would scarcely recognize it as
the old Medicine Bow with which he
was so familiar.

explaining his vote as follows: ] re-
fuse to concur In the above motion to
issue the bonds of Trego county for
erecting a High School building in
the sum of S20,0 900 or any other sum

High School was established under
the provisions of chapter 80, article
10, laws of 1901, by grace of special
act of the legislature passed Februa-
ry %, 1903, and as the law cited

and with authority approve the same,
Further, / refuse to approve or sane
