(By Adeline II. sperry.)

The management of the Crystal
theater in Grand Junction is certain
ly most obliging. Last Monday
night man from Iona, who is as
crazy about the movies" as the
Newlyweds's baby ,sauntered leisurely
into the Crystal, past the empty tic
ket booth, selected a comfortable
chair and viewed the splendid per-
fol nance with a great deal of pleas
ure. Finally, oppressed by sense
OF lonliness, he looked around for
company and found that he was the
only person there. The film kept on
moving, depicting life in different
phases, slurring nothing, giving a
Perfect and finished performance for
the solitary spectator. At last, when
1t was all over the man gave sigh of
satisfaction and took his meditative
way out into the night, with ten
cents that did not belong to him oc-
cupying a lonesome corner in his
trouser pocket. When he came to
the Majestic theater he observed that
the lights were still on and the love-
~ lady was absent from her place
in the ticket booth so he wandered
in, seeking the warmth and light of
the pleasure hall in preference to the
cold, unfriendly night. Here he was
once more entertained. but with a
few other entertainment seekers for
company, and at last when the last
reel had spun its length, he walked
out unmolested, still with his dime
in his pocket, but this time there
was an air of triumph about him,
and a snug smile of satisfaction
played over his somewhat effeminate
features.

Last Saturday afternoon while
two Iona ladies We're ON their way
to Fruita, laughing and chatting in
a happy, aimless way, horse and
buggy dashed madly by them and in
the buggy was Mrs. Tyler holding
wildly on to the reins but having no
ERECT whatever on the runaway
horse. Mrs. Tyler's hat had fallen
down on the back of her neck and
her face was very pale and frighten-
ed. As she passed the two ladies
she gave them look of frenzied
pleading and dashed on. The two
women were powerless, of course. as
1t would take a young canon explod-
ing directly under Blackie to make
her hasten the least bit. but in less
time than it takes to tell it George
Ottoway tore by with reckless speed
and consummate grace, and in a
twinkling he had the runaway horse
by the bit. AS soon as the animal
felt the master hand he Quieted
down and while George stroked his
neck and called him names, Mrs. Ty-
Ter stuck in few hair pins, put on
her hat. Al Davis, who had reached
her almost as quickly as George, got
in the buggy with her, George took
AIS pony and they all went back to
Iona, and the thrilling incident was
closed. The two ladies mentioned
in the first place ambled gently on

THINK GIRLS MURDER
PART OF GANG PLOT
Identity of Victim Unsolved and
Police Lack Clue as to
the Slayers.

NEW YORK. August 12.-Thirty-siN
hours have elapsed with hardly any
progress toward the Identification OF a
young woman who was found murdered
Sunday night In a bit Of swamp land in
upper Manhattan. The police are ALSO
quite as helpless in their search for clues
to the murderers, but they entertain
theary that the woman may have been
killed as part OF a gang plot. 1t is re-
called that large party of east siders
held a picnic In a grove near the scene
OF the murder on Sunday afternoon II
also is suggested that the case OF William
Lustig, who was severely shot in the east
side cafe by gangsters last week, and who
had been decoyed to the place by
woman, has a bearing on the murder.
Since the shooting the police have been
very anxious to learn the identity OF tho
girl decoy in the Lustig case, and IL IL
said that the gangsters feared that II
she were caught she would reveal the
names of all concerned in the Lustig plot.
The gang situation has assumed such
serious proportions on the east side that
a mass meeting under the auspices of the
East Side Neighborhood Association voted
last night to undertake q war Of extermi-
nation against the outlaws. Small shop
keepers bore testimony to the numerous
times they had been victims of blacknail,
Of how they had been forced to contribute
funds for gang activities under threat Ii
was declared that the situation was be
yond the control of the police, and that
the east siders themselves must take
bold stand against the criminals.

Patrons of the Columbia Theater. who
