VALLEY STEERS MAKE
 FAST TIME ID K. [.

Word was received yesterday by General Agent Goldsworthy of the Santa Fe of the arrival at Kansas City of the train load of fat Salt River Valley cattle that left here last week. The train pulled into the Kansas City yards at four o'clock Monday afternoon. the running time being a trifle over seventy hours.
 Advices received yesterday stated that the cattle arrived in fine con dition, and that the drovers were well pleased with the way the entire shipment was handled. Although no report of prices has yet been received it is understood that the market was fair. and on account of the small shrinkage, the returns were most satisfactory.
 Speaking of shrinkage." said Agent GoldswOrthy yesterday, the stock men of this valley are to be con- graduated upon the splendid way they handle their stock Careful planning of feeding, the right kind of feed and the time to water have been all thought out, and are of ma terial assistance to the railroad com pany in the handling of shiDments in the most efficient manner"

Fair, but those days have passed, al- though the widowers still remain. In any case the day is to be revived and the picnic will be the most sensational event of the summer. with the pos
 sible exception of the advent of the

 widowers bring and prepare their own
 food. but a lot of them, notably Dr.
 Nichols. w. <. Goldsworthy. Henry
 George and Jay Alkire. baked at that
 idea and insisted that the feed con sist of something which could be eaten. So the committee has arranged to have the eats provided by somebody that knows how to cook and all those in tending to be present are required to phone I94G and state that they will be on hand by 7:3O Thursday That is the time of the eat fest.
 The picnic will be held at Riverside park and the committee says that the lid is off for the occasion. A nota- ble program of amusements has been prepared for the occasion and one of the thrilling events will be a perpetra- tion of Will Corpstein's famous chair dive" from the forty-four foot diving platform by Dr. A. E. Nichols. The doctor states that it was he who taught Corpstein all he knows and that he will demonstrate how this particu- lar dive should really be done. Al Moore is said to be particularly in in this stunt and friends are to send flowers.
 The Summer Widower's picnic will , be an event such as has not taken place in many years. All the be- reaved ones are requested to get in inc for the good time and notify either the members of the committee of -ater Cummins to that effect not later 1, han noon on Thursday.

WIVES BEWARE!
 TROUBLE AHEAD
First Picnic of Summer Widowers Held in Many Years is Scheduled for Thursday - Take More Than Injunction t6 Stop

Are you a Summer Widower? If so you had better get in touch with A. r.. Moore. Webb Griffen. Doc Nichols. Archibald Cater or some other notable member of the clan and find out what is going to happen to you on Thursday. That has been set aside as Summer Widower's Day" and if half the doings that have been scheduled take place the notorious county jail is liable to prove too small to accommodate all Of Jeff Adams guests. All of which is a somewhat roundabout way of saying that a very large time is anticipated.
 Just why they are reviving Widow CTS day this year nobody seems to know, unless it is because there is an unusually large crow just now. Time was when the Summer Widower's pie nic vas a bigger event than the State
