A Veil of Mystery.

A veil of mystery seems tc
hover over this section with ref
erence to the disappearance of SO
many horses from the ranchers'
pastures. Gates are found open
and the best animals stray away
from the herd and seem to drop
out of sight and days of search
prove futile until a reward is off
cred by the owner. The animal
is then produced with such
promptness and regularity that
the owners are becoming suspi-
cious that there may be anorgan-
ization of bandits who are max
ing profits from the ransom paid
for return of the animals.

Denver Sunday was the scene of
a pleasant gathering of relatives,
it being the first of the kind in
twenty-one years, when the three
brothers and their wives and
children mingled together in
happy accord. The group con-
sisted of DR.. S. B. Miller and his
wife Of Cedar Rapids, Iowa, John
l.. Miller, his wife and four child
rem, and the above named hosts.
1t was the first reunion Of the
brothers since all were married
and it was the first Sunday John
l.. has had off in twelve years,
being so closely attached to his
bees and his chickens and fruit
farm, north Of town. The oc-
casion was celebrated by having
a family group taken. In the
bee lingo, Mr.. Miller says he
finally decided to swarm" So
far fas he knows nobody was
"stung" and all had a most de-
lightful time.

so, we will have it stereotyped
and get a copyright on it pretty
soon-unless something happens.
The local team played the
Globe EXpressmen Sunday after
noon on the Sacred Heart Dia-
mond and beat them l6 to 7. 1t
was so easy that the boys felt as
though they had been stealing
watermelons.
They were SO frisky when they
got through that they played st.
Elizabeth's a practice game of 5
innings. They took it easy and
left the score at 5 to 4 in their
favor.
Louis Miller played only one
inning, having attended the Mil
Ter reunion at his uncle's and
failed to make connections with
his playing clothes, which he left
for someone else to bring and
they forgot them.
A good game is expected next
Sunday between Aryada and the
San Souci's, at LIST avenue and
Milwaukee. The San Souci's are
said to be pretty fast.

Retired Hotel Man
Dies In Hospital.

On Monday morning, Geo. M.
Walker, 6S years old, was taken
seriously i'll and his physician ad-
vised that he had an obstruction
of the bowels, and that he be
taken to Mercy hospital, where
he was taken Tuesday morning.
Death came at midnight to re-
lieve his suffering. He had been
suffering from a nervous break
down for years and with his wife
came to Arvada a little more
than a year ago to live in quiet
ude.
They were very retiring people
and lived a very quiet life, and
as a consequence were not wide
ly known, but those who knew
them speak of them in highest
terms.
Mr.. Walker had been a hotel
man and was pioneer in this
line in Colorado, having been a
clerk of the American hotel in
Denver, when it was the leading
hotel of Denver.
He was well known to humid
reds Of travelling men and the
general public.
For several years afterward he
managed the Manitou house at
Manitou, when the little city near
the Garden of the Gods began to
become nationally known as a
health and summer resort. When
the Mansions was constructed
there, Walker also managed it in
connection with the other hotel.
He later was in charge of the
Hotel Adams at Phoenix, Ariz-
ona, and then returned to Den
yer as manager of the st. James
hotel.

Road Work Is
Progressing Rapidly

Road Overeeer Frank Morris
has been rather numerous over
the county the past week and
reports rapid progress on road
building since the recent rains.
Work was almost standstill
during the dry spell that was
just broken last week, on &C
count of the soil conditions. The
sandy loan would goto pieces as
soon as it was dumped in the
road and an automobile running
through it would grind it into
powder and scatter it back into
the bitches at the sides Of the
road.
The rain in some sections wet
the ground so thoroughly
that it was too muddy to work,
but in others it left it Just right
so the work was greatly facilitat-
ed.
The last stretch of right of
way was decided last Friday on
the new Ridge road and with the
exception Of the fencing of that
portion and putting in the cross
ing of the C. & S. railroad it
ready for travel. However the
grading has not been done on
account of dry weather and in
terfering with the farmers irri-
eating bitches. This work will
be pushed rs soon as practicable.
The roads on which repairs
have been made are as follows:
Morrison, TT. Logan, Colfax,
Goth, 32d Tor Old Prospect road)
and 14th avenues, comprising al
most hundred miles Of roads
that have been improved since
the dry spell was broken.
