consent of their parents to their mar

and apparently no Immediate hope of
any.
Cupid's inroads had made deep fur
rows in their hearts. however and
they decided that to be apart longer
was against their wishes and desires,
so they took matters in their own
hands and saddled two fast horses
last Monday night Weel; ago and in
the middle of the night made 40
mile ride to Delta, where they were
married the following day. They
fearlessly crossed Though the dense
forests of the mesa past numerous
pretty lakes with only the stars and
n faint trail to guide them. They
did not lose the trail und landed safe

we want TO cleaP out entirely. We
cannot make the proposed extern
sions.' he went on. while this agi-
tation is going on and we do not see
any chance of it ever being stopped
Chairman Griffith replied that the
subcommittee was not authorized
under It's resolution to consider the
purchase of the ice plant and Fruita
lighting system for the reason that
they were not deemed proper sub
jects for municipal operation. How
ever, he stated. there was no reason
why the committee should not listen
to the company's proposal. James
w. Bucklin added that he had never
considered those two utilities as in
surmountable obstacles to the pur-
chase of the entire holdings of the
company.
1t was suggested that n deal might
be arranged with the Fruita people
to purchase the property and that the
ice plant might be operated under
lease to private persons.
Mr.. Sunderlin stated that he had
not had time for n conference with
the bond and stockholders of the city

til four O'Clock this afternoon the dis
cussion of the whole problem of the
purchase.

stretched between two trees. Many
