Hawley have just returned from
camping trip begun the latter part Of
June. The ladies found "tent life''
just the thing, that is tent life such as
you find at the Eames ranch on tho
beautiful Morrisania tract.
They reveled in climbing mountainp,
picking berries and feasting on all the
good things that grow, aside from the
milk, cream, eggs and butter right fresh
from the ranch in most liberal quanti-
ties.
There are thirteen families living on
the Morrisania tract and the Eames
fruit ranch is among the most produce
tive. Mr.. Eames is growing straw
berries, black and red raspberries and a
large area is devoted to dewberries,
this will be much larger next year AZ
he has doubled the acreage for those
berries. He also has fine orchard and
is harvesting an immense crop of apples.
Mr.. Cooley is also raising fruit, but the
chief attraction Of his place are the
vast quantities of beautiful flowers
which he bestows SO literally upon his
neighbors. Mr.. Brown has . fine or
chard and berry tract and Nj. Schulz
is still picking red raspbsrries from HE

Anxious to Avert Strike and
Submit to Eight Hour Day
With Higher Freight Rate
WILSON may FAVOR

Washington, Aug. 24.-After contin-
ued conferences today between Presi-
dent Wilson and the select committee of
railroad executives, the situation sur
rounding the threatened strike was de-
seribed as having narrowed down to
the following:
The railroad presidents, at least the
select committee of eight, are willing
to accept the sight7hour day insisted
upon by President Wilson and the
trainmen.
In return they ask that they be as
sured as fully as possible that all
proper support be given and proper
means be used to assure them a freight
rate increase from the interstate COM
merce commission.
They ask also that congress create
permanent board of commission sim
liar to the Canadian commission to
handle future labor difficulties. A
commission of this character would be
empowered to investigate when labor
troubles threaten and no strike could
be called or strike vote taken pending
its investigation, q full report of which
would be made public at it's conclusion.
AT the end of the investigation ar
bitration would be- suggested, but If
not accepted, opportunity would be
given to the men to take q strike yotA
The balloting would be secret. j,
These proposals were communicated
today by Commissioner Chambers of
the federal mediation board to the rep
resentatives of the men who apparently
regard them favorably. Judge Cham.
bers then reported to President Wilson
and subcommittee of railroad execu-
tives was summoned to the White
House.
President Wilson is understood to
feel some sympathy for the counter
demands of the railroads and not averse,
to having the men accept them. 1t is
expected, however, that vote of the
labor representatives here must be-
taken before they can receive the nec-
essary endorsement.

ALBERT HAHNEwALD INJURED

/ Thursday evening as Albert Hahnc-
! Pathfinder ear between Red Cliff anil
his home he conceived the idea of run
ming race with Rio Grande passenger
train No. is which was going up the
grade at high speed.
| The race was an interesting one for
a time, but Hahnewald easily gained
on the passenger train and finally ran
away from it, but the speed mania
had evidently taken possession of him
and he continued the high rate of
speed rounding the curves and bump
ling the bumps with velocity as fool
hardy as it was dangerous and useless.
Finally when sailing around a curve
at high rate of speed he ran plump
into four-horse teaming outfit COM
ing down the road. On account of the
crooked road the two drivers could not
see each other until they had almost
come together. In another instant
there was crash.
Positive news cannot be learned in
Glenwood as the Post goes to press,
but the report comes that one horse
was killed outright, all four of the
animals legs being broken. The other
three horses suffered broken legs AMI
are so badly mangled that it will be
kill them. The driver of the teams
escaped uninjured, but Hahnewald suf
fered two broken ribs and several cuts
about the head. The first report was
to the effect that the young man had
been killed, but assurance was given
later that he will recover. His car
was badly wrecked.

FORMER eLENwooD
TEACHER MARRIED

Pueblo, Aug. 23.-Miss Harriet Allen
and John Girdler of Seattle, Wash,
were quietly married yesterday in Den
yer at the home of friends. Miss Allen,
who has been in California for several
months, returned Monday to Pueblo AMI
visited friends for day, then contin-
ued her journey to Denver, where she
met Mr.. Girdler and the ceremony was
performed. The engagement of the
couple has been known by intimate
friends and also the fact that the we'd
ding was to take place soon, but to &C
quaintances, the fact will be surprise
Miss Allen has been a teacher in the
public schools of Pueblo for number
of years. First she taught the grades
in the North Side schools, and later ac-
cepted an offer as head of the Latin
department in Central High school.
Mr.. Girdler formerly resided in Pn-
eblo. For time he was the head Of
the social service work here. He later
was principal of the high school in
Glenwood Springs, and for the past

Ter expects to enter Columbus university
and study there for winter. Then he

POPULAR PASTOR
LEAVES GLENWooD

Last Sunday evening Rev. Ernest f.
Tuck, for the past year the popular
pastor of the Methodist Episcopal
church in this city, preached his fa1e-
well sermon to large and intensely in
terested congregation, bade an affee-
tionate farewell to the people with
whom he has labored the past year,
and early the next morning left for
Greeley where he will visit his mother
and sisters and his baby daughter,
and soon will leave for Boston where
he will enter the theological depart
ment of the Boston university for IA
two years. advanced course, to the end
that he may be the better equipped for
his life work in the ministry.
While there is sincere regret in the
membership of the church at the
thought of losing Mr.. Tuck as the
church head at this place, all ara
agreed as to the wisdom of his plan
to still further add to his equipment
for a life of usefulness in the Master IS
vineyard. The majority of preachers
possessed of Mr.. Tuck's splendid abil-
ity would consider farther advance
ment in higher education unnecessary y
and content themselves with their abil-
ity to hold an appointment of some
kind.
Not so with this bright young man
whose ambition is pushing him toward
the top. Mr.. Tuck rightly believes
that youth is the proper time for Il
careful preparation for life's activities
and he is convinced that the pulpit de-
mands or will demand as careful pre-
paration and as great ability as is de-
manded by any other profession.
Perhaps no minister has ever left
the Glenwood field whose going was
the subject of such complete regret.
Certain it is that no pastor in the
slort time that Mr.. Tuck was among
us has ever so endeared himself to the
people, not only of his own congrega-
ton. but of az thoa who learned to
know and love him. J..
Coming to this place less than year
ago under a heavy cloud of sorrow,
starting in--on..a field that had been
none too well cultivated, Mr.. Tuck
.soon had his church on a good working
basis, every phase Of the work advauc-
ing nicely, when he was taken very i'll
and obliged to abandon the work for
about three months. Notwithstanding
this unfortunate and unavoidable han
dicap, the church has had the most
prosperous year in its history and will
begin the work of the new year much
the better because of the brief labors
of this splendid, consecrated young
man in this community.
1t is high compliment to Mr. Tuck
that not only his own church is unite In
wishing him God-speed in whatever
field Of usefulness he may be called,
but that members Of all other churches
entertain the most kindly feeling for
him and wish him abundant success in
his studies and in his future labors in
the church.

MAKING AMENDS

The life of the newspaper man is one
continuous round of pleasure and in
his duties in the way of gathering the
news: he often prints and is given
credit for news items which would moi
find their way into print at all but fol
the thoughtfulness of some kind neigh
Dor who "puts him wise'' or furnishes
him a "hunch' which, through little
Investigation, results in good story.
On the other hand, no matter how
alert the editor or reporter may be o,
try 70 be, good story sometimes eludes
the vigilance of the most careful re-
porter, much to the chagrin of the par
ties interested and especially the ed
itor who is on the lookout for all tine
news all the time.
Is the multiplicity of conventions
which have recently furnished so much
good "copy" for the newspapers the
Post missed one item through the mis-.
taken impression that the same had
ALREADY been used.
While the editor was attending the
Republican state assembly in Denver on
Thursday, August 10, he wrote short
"lead - for story, giving the proceed,
ings up to the noon adjournment and
mailed the same to the office reporter
and, realizing that it would be impos.
sible to send the remainder of the con.
vention story so that it would reach
the paper before press time on Friday,
he asked the reporter to scan Leadville
and Grand Junction papers on Friday
morning for further details of the days
proceedings, including the full list Of
scendidates nominated.
Being very busy the next week and
assuming that all convention news and
results had been given the previous
week, the editor last week neglected
giving one convention item which he
thought had been published the week
before
