c. c. Canady, sAeretaFy of the Glen
wood Business Mems league, made a
trip to Grand Junction Thursday to
attend . meeting called in that city
to combat the efforts of the Union
Pacific to close the Ogden gateway.
Representatives of several western

against the proposal of the Union Pa
ci6c to divert travel around Colorado,
| At a meeting held at Grand Junction
Thursday evening, attended by repre-
sentatives of the commercial bodies
from Grand Jnction, Montrose and

cities protesting against the closing of
the Ogden gateway by the Union Pa

The offices of the district court and
the county court have ordered steel
filing cabinets and will, dating from
January l, adopt the flat filing system
on all cases filed in these courts This
will prove 4 great convenience to law
yers and others having occasion to han
die the files as all papers will be kept
in flat position in agreeable contrast
with the manner in which they have
heretofore been rolled up and pushed
into pigeon holes. This will be a
marked Improvement which will be ap-
preciated especially by the legal pro-
fession.
Deeds were this week filed in the
county clerks office to six lots on
Grand avenue, vesting title in this

ing. The grantors are Richard j..
Bo!les, Alfred Polkinghorn, L. F. Grace,
j. s. Woody, Horace X. and James H..
Devereux and The Glenwood Ho
Springs and Hotel Company. 1t is said
that the government will give the for
mer owners ample time in which to re-
move their improvements, but up to
that time will allow them to use the
property, charging nominal ground
rent.
Adolph Carlson, son of County Treas
urer A. F. Carlson Of Eagle county, mas
returned to his home at Basalt feeling
fine and able to use his hand and to
pretty good advantage. 1t will be re-
membered that over three months ago
Adolph, while out hunting, received d
charge of birdshot in his arm and hand,
tearing the flesh and sinews from the
hand in such a fashion that it was
feared for quite while that amputa-
tion would be necessary. By careful
skin grating, however, DR.. Place has
built up the damaged member until
Adolph is now able to make considerable
use of the shattered arm and hand and
the boy has returned to his home very
happy.
