The Hotel Colorado closed its doors
iast Wednesday evening, that being the
close Of their season and the usual time
for closing the house for the winter.
The hotel has given excellent satisfac-
ton this year, having been strictly
fzst-class in all its appointments and
in this respect this has been one of the
most satisfactory years in the history
sf the house. Unfortunately the pat
roaage has not been as satisfactory to
the Management as in some other years,
the travel having been lighter this year
than usual. This is thought to be
hfgely owing to the fact that the peo-
pie are planning to tour the west next
year and attend the Panama American
Exposition At the same time and it is
predicted that Glenwood will enjoy
splendid tourist trade next year.

Opera House Opening

The city council has let the opera
house management to S. P. Myers
on per cent basis, the city to
receive 80 per cent of the gross
receipts, Mr.. Myers to pay all
expenses except the janitor who is
to be paid by the city. The open
ing is to take place in about two
weeks. 1t was the intention to
secure some good company for the
opening but being out of season it
will be opened with moving
pictures. For the first night Mr..
Myers offers to secure a first class
FIVE reel program and donate the
entire proceeds Of the evening to
the city. The hail fund~has been
exhausted, in fact there is de-
ficiency, of more than one hundred
dollars on seats, lightning fixtures
and other necessities and to make
this up the council is asking the
people to pay fifty cents per seat
on the first night. If the house
should be filled at that price it
would raise a fund sufficient to put
things IN shape for use. The date
of the opening will be announced
later.

There was but one flash OF
lightning and one clap of thunder
during the refreshing shower that
fell last Monday morning but it
struck a death blow, killing Albert
Herring who was driving a moving
machine on the Geo. M. West
farm on route three. The bolt
struck the top of his head, and ran
down the left side tearing his shirt
open and leaving a burned and
blistered mark. The skin was not
broken but blood was DOSING from
one ear. He was killed instantly.
The team was frightened by the
lightning and in the luuge to get
away broke the singletrees and
neekyoke but no other damage was
done. Albert was q years old
and leaves a widow and a seven
months old child. His parents,
Mr.. and Mrs. Dud Herring live on
