A large number of friends and neigh
bors were in attendance at the funeral
evincing the sympathy .of the community
al the fatal termination of peculiar ao-
cident. The demise of this eleven-ye ear
old boy was from spinal meningitis. re-
sulting from blow in the face from a
baseball.
While playing ball with other boys at
the Newdale school some time last fall
the boy was struck on the left cheek by
a batted ball. The lad was dazed for a
short time. it is reported, but was soon
revived and after removing the blood
which had freely flowed, thought SO
little of the accident that he did not even
mention it to his mother.
Some days afterward the lad was
taken violently i'll and physician was
summoned from this city who found the
lad suffering from apparent conclusion
of the brain, and an investigation follow
ed that brought to light the accidental
blow from the baseball. Thinking the
lad might have sustained a fracture OF
the skull the doctor had him taken to
Pueblo for expert examination under the
X-ray. but no fracture nor injury could
be discovered. Everything possible was
done to bring relief to the injured lad, but
to no avail until death came on Sunday
to relieve his suferings.

DIED IN CALIFORNIA
DIR. Coleman, Former Alderman aud
Physician of This City

On Monday a telegram received by DR..
S. M. Kellogg brought news of the death
in California of his father-in-law, DR.. A.
Coleman. The news was not unexpected
as DR.. Coleman had been ailing for a
couple OF years, and for several months
his health had been in most precarious
condition, but intelligence of his demise
none the less brought sorrow to his many
Rocky Ford friends.
Alexander Coleman was e5 years of
age and a native of Macoupin county. Ill
inois. He studied medicine and was ad-
nitted to practice in Nebraska. shortly
after locating in Denver. where he for
several years had successful practice.
About twelve years ago he moved to this
city and continued in practice until his
failing health compelled his retirement
DR., Coleman served as aldermen for one
term and had an active interest in civic
affairs until his health gave way.

permitted, the resultant fruit harvest
will not only be enhanced in value.
but the period of the plantation's use
fulness as a means of revenue will be
greatly prolonged thereby.
The same may be said OF the tree
fruits. when left to their own will OF
reproduction, there is tendency to
blossom and to set more fruit than the
tree is able to mature. The result Is
a lot of illshaped. badly colored and
undesirable fruit
In making a practical application of
this principle We confine the plants to
rows six feet apart and with canes
two feet apart in the row. Then, dur
ing the spring and summer, at about
the time the new growth OF the plants
are two feet tall, the terminal bud is
broken out. This causes heavy
growth OF laterals. and when these
reach length OF ten or twelve inches
the tips OF these are taken OF.

Calls Out Crowd of Native
Sons and Daughters
KANSAS, PENNSYL-

Meet and Swap Stories, Feast on
Fat of the Land and Spend
Enjoyable New Years

hJOyoDhS iNSW hSdio
Last year several Nebraskans
were the guests of Kansas and
Pennsylvania at their annual re-
union and they found the affair
so enjoyable that they asked for
and were admitted to membership,
and as a result the Kansas-Penn-
sylvania-N Nebraska reunion this
New Years day saw one of the
largest crowds in K. of p. hall
that has ever been gathered in
this city for similar affair.
And this years reunion was
also a record-maker in point of
enjoyment, due in great measure
to the contents of the well-filled
baskets arrayed IN the banquet
hall by such mistresses in the art
of preparing 'toothsome delicacies
as the ladies' of these three states,
headed by the following, who
composed the dining room COM
mittee: Mesdames w. b. Goblin,
Fay Shottenkirk, Dora j. Linn,
James Barnes, j. o. Baker, Ches-
ter johnson, o. j. Baxter, G. A.
Wheelock and U. S. Ringer.
The ladies' were more in evil
dence this year than ever for up
on entering the lobby you were
accosted by. some member of the
reception committee consisting of
Mesdames Fullmer Nixon and
Potts, and were conveyed into
hall that had undergone a beauti-
full metamorphis under the cap
able hands of Mesdames Hall,
Kitchen and Culp-the decora-
tions committeeman were turned
over to the registrars-Misses
Ruth Hall, Ruth Farris and
Mabel Baxter-who saw that you
were properly tagged before al
lowing you to run at large.
Chairman Coffman, our esteem
ed mayor, opened the entertain
ment program in his usual happy
style and was followed by others
in like humorous and witty vein,
chief amongst them being DIR.
Weaver for Pennsylvania, G. A.
Blakely for Nebraska and Will
lam Green for Kansas
The original reunion song by
Mrs. Bailey, Messrs. Hall, Hutto
and Weist made distinct hit and
the singing af the Misses Baxter,
Ruth Farris and the Blakely
children elected vociferous de-
mands for more songs.
Recitations by Mrs. Kitchen,
Miss Hall and Master Hutto were
encored to the echo and the music
by Bailey's orchestra--withou
which reunion would not be
complete-all combined to make n
most enjoyable and memorable
day for everyone present.

in building up plant tissue resulting
in increased size, strength and vigor
of individuality as to plants. Some
fruit plants, such as the strawberry
and some of the bush fruits as well,
propagate by means of seeds and
nodes. With the strawberry the nodes
are formed on an elongation of certain

as runners, having their origin in the
