GET RID OF
THE FILTH
IN GREELEY
ORDERS A REAL SPOT
LESS TOWN AND GIVE NOTICE
TO 1876 RESIDENTS TO CLEAN
UP AT ONCE-ROUTINE WORK

With a view to a truly "Spotless
Town" the police department re-
ported to the council Tuesday night
1876 properties north of Eighth
street that need cleaning. Notices
have been left at these premises,
and they will have to take immedi-
ate action to abate the nuisances.
Out on West Tenth street some
enterprising resident wants 20
create sidewalk district, build
walks and pay for them in 20 year
installments. He seems to have
stirred up all sorts of problems for
the city hall folks. The city attor-
ney is now looking up the statutes
to see If all the property affected
will be held as liens for the full 20
years, or whether it will be possible
for those who wish to pay up their
assessments in full at any time ana
get a release.
The council permits George Oster-
hout of Windsor to tap the Gree
lev water mains near his farm ana
buy water from the city.
Two years age the city irrigating

SAYS GOOD
WORDS FOR
OUR COLLEGE
U. S. EXPERIMENT STATION IN
SPECTOR VISITS GREELEY -
ADMIRES TEACHERS COL
LEGE AND ITS GARDENS

II want you to say good word
for your college,"
This was the greeting of Char
les H. Lane, of the United States
department of agriculture, Wash
ington, to reporter this morning.
Mr.. Lane is on a tour of inspec-
tion of experiment stations in the
west, and after visiting the Fort
Collins station came to Greeley.
where he looked in on the work of
the college here, particularly as re-
CARDS it's agricultural studies, and
it's gardens.
Nowhere in the west, said Mr..
Lane, is there a college with such a
fine campus. such magnificent ap-
proaches, such beautiful shrubs and
flowers, and such general air OF
go-aheadedness. The work of the
school. he said, in its study of agri-
| culture with q view to the future
teachers ability to impart practica
| instruction to her pupils, is excel
lent The garden plots of the chill
dren, the nursery showing practical
work of propagation, and the for
NAL garden of the campus, affordine
excellent opportunity for the study
of botany, all are worth while, and
far above the average of similar in
stitutions.
Mr.. Lane states that in nearly all
of the schools and colleges increased
attention is being given to the
study of the principles of agricul-
ture. that the serious problem OF
feeding the nation may be met with
the intelligence necessary to solu-

Time Lock Expert Makes His
annual Visit to Greeley Banks

has had but four locks go back on
him through cause for which he was
responsible. He learned the trade
of a matchmaker, beginning when
he was only seven years old, and
worked the following IL years for
the same man. Later, when the
time locks became the vogue. he
took up that branch of the business,
and has followed it steadily since.
What do you do when a time
lock goes back on you?" he was
asked.
Get a drill. When the clock
stops 1t is all off. and there is moth
ing to do but get inside with a drill.
Then it is usually but few minutes
work to put things right. After
that, the hole is filled with a steel
plug. so tightly put in place that
the safe is as good and as hard to
crack as though there had never
been an accident.
Mr.. Ainsworth has yearly con-
tracts with each of the Greeley
banks.

REPORTS ON
s. s. UNION

1t will be of interest to many
who SO kindly contribute to the
maintenance of the work being done
by the American Sunday School
Union in Weld county to know that
some extra effort has been made to
meet more fully the needs of the
rural districts. So many calls for
preaching services have come in
from time, to time that could not
be met by the regular missionary
the matter was placed before some
of our responsible Greeley citizens
who became interested and made
generous response to the solicita-
ton. An evangelist was employed
to meet these requests as opportun-
ity afforded.
After overcoming many hind
RANGES the work was launched in
weather permitted until the middle
of April, when it was deemed best
on account of the urgency of farm
work to discontinue.
We are glad to make such report
as indicates that the enterprise
shows success equal to it's need.
Miss Rachel Dangerfield conducted
the services and sends in the fol-
lowing report:
Number of sermons preached, 3S.
Number of visits to homes, 13S.
Number of conversions, 81.
Amount collected at services,
STEPS.
Meetings held in Delta, Sunny
side, Galeton and Hardin.
Our county missionary, Rev. H.
B. Mcmillan. gave his endorsement
and aid to this new departure and
his faithful, energetic labor in the
county the past few years has done
much to make the above success
possible. xxx

CORONER
WANTS A
PUlM0TOR
SAYS CAN SAVE MANY LIVES OF
DROWNED AND ELECTROCUT.
Ed THE PHYSICIANS AGREE
WITH HINI-COUNTY MAY BUY

The possession of a Pulmotor by
the county, the city or the coroner
would probably have saved the life
of the little Prott child at Johns
town on Tuesday according to Cor
oner Macy, who had not heard of
the new life saving machine until
he read of it in last nights Tribune.
Coroner Macy became enthusias-
tic at once on reading the descrip-
ton of the Pulmotor, and together
with County Physician Harmer,
City Physician Shields, and Paul
Darrow of the Gas company, will go
before the board of county commits
sioners and urge the purchase of
one, which shall be kept at some
central point where it can be had at
minutes notice when needed
There were ten persons drowned
or asphyXiated in Weld county last
year, and three so far this spring,
the majority of whom might have
been saved with one the new in
struments. In the case of the Prott
baby drowned yesterday, the child
had been in the ditch less than an
hour when found, and was still
warm when Coroner Macy arrived.
In most of the cases of drowning,
the body is usually found in few
minutes, but for want of such a
machine as the Pulmotor, death
usually results.
1t is expected that upon the show
ing made to the commissioners,
with the backing of the coroner and
the physicians, that a purchase will
be made, as the cost is only $3.50.

Ever stop to think what happens
when the time lock that protects
the big bank vaults gets balky, ana
all the funds of the bank are nope
lessly tied up behind the steel
walls? :.
There's an old gentleman down IN
Denver that most of the Colorado
bankers call when anything OF the
sort happens. His name is Wllilahi
Ainsworth, and he is in Greeley TO-
day. He is an expert MATCHMAKER,
and his business is cleaning anu
keeping in repair the several nun
dred time locks in the Rocky noun
tain region. Once year he visits
every bank on his list, takes on 'te
time lock, takes it apart, cleans IN
spects and oils it, and guarantees
its running without stopping toI M
another year. Then he collects Ms
fee and disappears for a year IN
less. which rarely happens, soihe-

Within the past week the Tribune
has had numerous inquiries about
Eldora as a place to spend a vaca-
tion at moderate cost, and this
paper is glad to give any informa-
ton obtainable on the subject. 1t
may be stated in answering some OF
the questions propounded by phone
and otherwise, that the fishing is as
good or better than most of the
this side of the range. AL
though the water is sill very high,
and probably will be for two or
three weeks yet, the young son Of
John Lilly the Eldora livery man,
caught nine of fair size on Decora-
ton day, and was only out three
hours. Fishing is best either above,
or below town in the beaver dams.
Some good size fellows are being
caught in the reservoir at Nedere
land, a few miles away, where the
Central Colorado Power company
has the highest dam in the state.
Good fish are caught every year IN
North Boulder creek, starting at the
Blue Bird mine, few miles east OF
Eldora, and whipping it clear to the
falls, a couple of miles north Of El-
dora. Later in the season the fish-
ing is fine higher up, nearer the
base of the mountains, in some of
he lakes.
There are no Cottages for rent,
such as are known at Manitou. Estes
