THE FOURTH
CELEBRATION
Many Visitors Enjoy the Day
Which Proves Harmonious
and Without Accident

The Morning of the 4th of July
was the reverse of last year, and
dawned with threatning rain clouds
overhanging the valley and by
1880 heavy down-pour forced
everybody to seek shelter until after
the noon hour. However the re-
mainder of the day was such that
the entire program was pulled off,
and those attending all have good
word to say about the manner, in
which the event passed off. 1t was
one of the most peacible and har-
moniolls celebrations ever given at
Crested Butte, not withstanding the
reports that were sent broadcast by
pessimists of danger to the contrary,
which without doubt frightned
some and promted them to miss
a day of rehl enjoyment.
The parade headed by the band
met the Gunnison special. The
procession then marched to the city
hall where the children and young
folks were given liberal treat of
good candy and nuts, and there was
plenty for all of them. Then started
the display and street sports.
For the best decorated auto, NJ.
J. Boyle took first prize $1,000 and
Martin Verzuh second $500.
In the mons foot race 100 yard
dash Chester Pittser, of Gunnison
won first money $1,000 Tom Quinn
second $500.
In the womans foot race, jose
phine Boyle won first prize $500
and Mrs. Lawrence Snyoer second
$500.
The hose race was strictly one
sided, the Crested Butte team being
the only entry. The run was
made and the s33 90 purse awarded
to them.

Lehan's pitching was un9uestion-
ably the feature of the game and the

favor until the last half of the ninth
inning, the score standing 10 to 3
as the home team took the bat.
Here Kiloren came to the rescucand
landed home-run hit, bringing in
three men from h,ses. THIS was
followed up by Bergman on a.3-base

play by attempting to cross out a
man to first base, after which
Crested Butte run i'll two more
ta]lies, giving them the game.

DRUGGISTS WAR ON PRICES
Retailers Ask McReynolds's
Aid Against Wholesale Increase

BF icltEIapN 10 ] ne IIIb4N'.
Philadelphia, Aug 19.-The National
Association Of Retail Druggists, in
convention here, to-day sent a COM
munication TO Attorney General Nc
Reynolds, urging him to institute d
governmental investigation into the
alleged unwarranted boosting Of prices
Of drugs and chemicals by wholesalers
and importers since the war began.
The communication was accompanied
by resolution condemning certain
Wholesale drug dealers for taking id
vantage Of the situation IN Europe by
unnecessarily advancing prices on
commodities essential to the health Of
the nation. The resolution describes
the practice as displaying lack Of
humanitarianism and patriotism and
pledges the members Of the associa-
tion not only to fight the increased
prices of drugs, but 10 conserve the
supply on hand at present for the ben
eft OF the people as "a whole.
In introducing the resolution Jacob
II. Rehfuss, eX-president of the New
York State Pharmaceutical Associa-
ton, declared that prices on some artI-
cles have been advanced as much as
100 per cent. Every wholesale house
IN the country, he said, is well stocked
at present, but is advancing prices be-
cause Of an anticipated shortage.

REA FAV0RS STOCK
EXCHANGE OPENING
President of the Pennsylvania
Would Have Restricted
Cash Trading.
~ TcIegrcDh 10 The TrIbuUe.I !

Philadelphia, Aug. 19.-ln an inter-
view to-day regarding stock exchange
conditions, Samuel Rea, president Of
the Pennsylvania Railroad, said he
thought the markets could be reopened
under certain restrictions.
an view of the trading under regula-
ton now proceeding outside" said Mr..
Rea. at seems as if in the general in
terest of the public our stock OK
changes must soon be opened. This
would, of course, be done under the
direct supervision Of the Stock EX-
change committee, which have been in
session daily since the closing of the
exchanges.
"The trading could be confined to
cash transactions and further limited
TO leading railways and industrials,
with the general list still subject to the
special orders of the committee.
Undoubtedly the holders of securi-
ties have shown their desire to deal
and in the last few days prices on the
business done have been at or above
the closing July 30. There has been
an accumulation Of funds which would
be available for investment, and it may
be presumed that all interests would
be favorable to an early open and safe
guarded market for securities"
