Action in Near Future
A NEW COUNCIL
MAY SETTLE QUESTION
Action Upon Application of Telephone
Company Postponed Until Next
Month by City Council

Tho but little opposition was
manifest, at the meeting of the
city council last Friday evening,
to the starting upon its way of the
ordinance granting to the Noun
tain States Telephone and Tele-
graph Co. the franchise applied
for at the previous meeting, it
was evident that the council has
no desire to bring the matter to
an Issue, as after an exhaustive
discussion of the application it
was upon motion decided to post
pone action until the second meet
ing in March-when The Enter
prise predicts it will again be
postponed month, 30 that a new
city council will have the mooted
question to trouble them imme-
diately upon assuming office.
District Manager Seelye of the
telephone company was present at
the meeting, and in response to a
question by Aid. Lawson stated
the company would agree to pay
the proposed rebate from last
November-when the old fran
chise expired-so that the city
will not be out this sum by its
dalliance with the franchise if it
eventually accepts the proposed
terms.
At the meeting on Friday even
ing there we're thirteen applica-
tions for the position of city irri-
gator. From this unlucky num-
ber Andy Nicholes was eventually
chosen and he'll have the pleasure
of running our ditch water during

The application of the United

meeting and finally disposed of by
a peremptory refusal.

UNION REVIVAL is ON
Evangelist Is Drawing Large Con.
gregations to the eMethodist-Pres-
byterlan Revival Services

The union revival meeting was
commenced in the midst of a
storm and with unabated vigor
the storm has continued and the
prospects are that the finish will
be in a record breaking storm.
The first storm was one of old
Boreas but the continued storm is
one against darkness and sin
which is being vigorously waged
by the evangelist.
Despite the snow storm on
Sunday the Presbyterian church
was filled to its utmost capacity
with an audience who came to see
and hear Evangelist Barrett, who
had been engaged by the Metho-
dist and Presbyterian churches to
conduct revival campaign in
this city.
Rev. Barrett's style of evangel-
ism is radically differenrfrom the
modern ideas, as expressed by the
strenuous Billy Sunday and
others, but he has a persuasive
eloquence all his own that will
weigh nightly in the campaign
that he has started in this city, ii
is confidently expected by those
who are interested in the work OF
reolaiming sinners, and constant
ly increasing numbers at the week
night meetings attest to the draw
ing power of his preaching snd
the able assistance of his daugh-
ter, Miss Barrett, whose solos are
giving great pleasure to those who
attend.
As is customary in revival meet
ings the first week is being de

voted to preparatory work, and on
Sunday next the revival proper
will begin. On this day the evan
gelist will conduct four services,
as follows: At IL a. m. Rev. Bar
rett will take for his theme "The
DEVILS Auction;" at 2:30 service
for women only will be held when
the subject will be "a Woman's
Love Story" at A p. m. the topic
will be "The Coyotes of Rocky
Ford"-this is for men only and
all infidels, skepticts, atheists,
agnostics, Christian Scientists,
spiritualists and Unitarians are
invited. A general invitation is
extended to the evening meeting
at 7:30, when the subject will be

HOLSTERS FIRST
ANNUAL REUNION
Brings Out Native Indianians
in Large Numbers
MOST ENJOYABLE AND
SUCCESSFUL EVENT
Great Throng Present, the "Eatins''
Were Fine and Speechifying
Interested Everyone

Native SONS and daughters of
Indiana together with "furriners"
who had fingered sufficient
length of time within its border to
claim former residence in the
good old Hoosier state, were out in
such numbers to the initial reunion
on Friday last that X. of P. hall
was comfortably filled, "ceptin"
during the basket dinner. when
there wasn't room for all and they
had to be fed in relays.
With every kind of locomotion
from the plutocratic auto to the
stills that nature provides-they
gathered from all parts of Otero
county during the forenoon hours,
and under the genial guidance of
"Pap" Shelton a social hour was
spent by the men folk in getting
acquainted, while their better
halves with the contents of we'll
filled hampers and baskets were
loading the tables with the choic-
est specimens of their culinary
skill, SO that at the noon hour
there was an array of good things
to eat such as could scarcely be
prepared in their native state.
Following the dinner the pro-
gram was carried out substantially
as published by The Enterprise
last week, the orchestral music SO
lavishly provided being greatly
enjoyed by all,
@. B. Sherwood, president of the
association, as in duty bound
"broke the ice" and his welcom-
ing talk set everyone at ease and
was great incentive to those who
followed.
The leading address was made
by our county superintendent who
smulated that famous pedagogue
1.-The Hoosier Schoolmaster" with
fund of recontre that was most
most agreeable to his hearers.
Entertaining and enjoyable
readings were given by Mrs.. Ellis,
NJ. W. Westfall and others, while
Mrs. Z. N. Stout aud Miss Zelma
Larmore favored the audience
with some excellent piano music.
While Eggleston, the author of
the famous story mentioned above.
came in for need of praise, that
noted Indianian James Whitcomb
Riley, received his just dues at
the hands of Mrs. Charlotte Park
er, who had many interesting
tales to tell of the early life of the
genial Hoosier poet.
Amongst the entertainers DR..
Stout's solo work came in for a
goodly share of praise, and had it
not been that some of the "extem-
por" speakers were in hurry to
reach the concluding number
five minute talks by native
Hoosiers'-it is a question wheth-
er some of those present would
have been induced to make start
for home until after dark, so en-
joyable to them was the first In.
diana reunion.

OPPOSE RURAL
80 School IjHjjIjT BILL
Agricultural Club Against
Proposed Unit System
INSTRUCTIVE TALK
on WHEAT RAISING
All the Wheat that Is Raised In
the Valley This Year

Speaker Promises Good Market for
All the Wheat that Is Raised In
the Valley This Year
Interest in the question of the
reorganization of the rural school
system attracted a large gather
ing at the meeting of the Otero
County Agricultural association
which was held Saturday after
noon. While the average citizen
has paid little attention to the
question it is evident that the
directors in the rural school dis
tricts have not been asleep but
that they are vitality interested in
the question which effects every
school district of the third class
in the state. A large number of
district committeeman from all
over the county were present at
the meeting and it was very evil
dent before the meeting was call
ed to order that the school direc-
tors had come prepared 10 oppose
the bill and they were we'll armed
with questions and arguments
from their standpoint.
The meeting was called to order
by vice. president Clark Kitchen
aud after the reading of the min
utes of the last meeting county
superintendent of schools S. s.
Phillips was introduced and at
once took up the question of the
bill now before the legislature for
the adoption of the unit system of
government of the rural schools
of the third class which briefly
provides for a board of five school
directors from the several sections
of the county to be elected by the
people and to take the place of the
of the school boards which are
now in vogue in each of the school
districts in the county.
For nearly two hours the ques-
tion was discussed during which
there were some rather warm
arguments but it was evident from
the start that the, district commit
teemen were not in sympathy with
the bill and at last the matter was
brot to head by the motion of
j. c. Prior that the association
protest against the passage of the
bill and that the secretary be in
struc.ed to notify the representa-
tives and senator from this county.
B. M. Spaulding of La Junta
was the next speaker and gave a
most interesting and Instructive
talk on the selection of seed and
the raising of wheat. Mr.. Spauld-
lug has been handling wheat for
the past 26 years and as manager
of the flour mills at La Junta is
anxious to have the farmers of the
valley who contemplate change
in their crops, raise wheat and is
just as anxious to havssthem grow
a variety that will make them the
most money and to this end he
advised the planting of Defiance
spring wheat if it can be procured
and stated that unless it was in
the ground by April 10 it was
little use to plant it and he dis
couraged the planting of winter
wheat at this time in the year
stating that there was not one
chance in hundred that it would
ever amount to anything. The
speaker promised to take all the
wheat that Is raised in the valley
this year at the highest possible
price.
The meeting adjourned to meet
the first Saturday in March.

KITCHENER's GOOD HEALTH.
Britain's War Lord Lives Strenuous
 But We'll Ordered Life.

Correspondence of the Associated PressD
 London, Oct. 7.-Although he has just passed his sixty-fifth birthday. Lord Kitchener shows no sign of breaking down under the fifteen hour workday that he set for himself on taking charge of the war office at the beginning of hostilities. Tn this interval, he has slept out of London only four times. He has a bed in the war building for emergencies and al- ways lunches there.
 Lord Kitchener's day begins at St. James palace at o'clock in the morning. at S:10, he spends ten or fifteen minutes at breakfast Break fast is followed by a walk in St James park to the war office, where he arrives at o'clock. Important dispatches must first be cleared away. There are often meetings of the cab inet or of the high explosives of oth- CT committees to attend. Luncheon is a matter of fifteen minutes, usual ly taken about 1:45. From then un- til 7:30 in the evening he works steadily. If there is business of ex- treme urgency on hand, he continues without dinner. Otherwise, he dimes and stays on duty until about II o'clock, when he retires to bed in his rooms in St. James palace.

NOTED AUTO RACER
 DIES OF INJURIES
Two Time Winner of Vanderbilt Cup
 Races SuccumbS to Burns Re- ceivcd in a Practice Spin.

Harry F. Grant, twice winner of the Vanderbilt cup race and one of the foremost American automobile drivers, died last night in the Coney Island hospital as the result of burns he suffered on September 2S when his car took fire at the Sheepshead Bay Speedway.
 Grants death comes as surprise to speed enthusiasts and his brother racing drivers, as it had been re- ported only a few days ago tEtt he was recovering. His death will cast a shade over the Astor cup race to- morrow.
 The accident which caused the death of Grant occurred just after he had completed one circuit of the two mile track. AS he shot up the steep banked turn on his second prac-' tice lap his car suddenly was en- veloped in flames. Knowing that to apply the brakes would mean death to both himself and his mechanism, as the car would plunge down the bank, Grant kept his car, which was going faster than ninety miles an hour, under perfect control until he passed the curve. Then he damned
New Britain herald., 1915-10-08

the Boston offices of the Alec com pany. In 1907 he started racing on small dirt tracks. His success en- couraged him to enter the Lowell road race in 1908 and he reeled off the fastest lap in the contest. A tire explosion lost the 1909 Lowell race for him.
 In 1909 and 1901 on Long Island course he won the Vanderbilt Cup race, each time driving an old stock Alec car. He is the only driver who ever won two Vanderbilts in success sion. One other driver, <'lph De Palma, has won two Vanderbilt cup races. Grant is survived by his wife.
