Mrs. W. j. B%roadhurst.

Geo. W., Willis E. and Arthur
Broadhurst all returned Sunday
from Laramie, where they attend
ed the funeral of their mother,
Mrs. w. j. Broadhurst, who died
there on Tuesday evening of last
week.
Mrs. Broadhurst was n of the
pioneer ladies of Wyoming, COM
ing to this state a good many
years ago, and will be missed by
the many friends who survive
her, and who have been her
neighbors for many years. She
was a member of the Methodist
church and a very devoted Chris.
tian woman. Her sickness was
very sudden and she only lived a
few hours after taking down.
She was past SO years of age,
having been born in 1853 and a
Canadian by birth.
She was one of the many good
women of the west who endured
and lived for a purpose and who
raised a good family, and was al
ways the loving mother, which is
the greatest fixture and the one
thing so needed in a home to
make it home.
She leaves her husband, W. j.
Broadhurst of Laramie, her ell
dest son, Geo. W. Broadhurst of
this city, cashier of the State
Bank, Willis E. Broadhurst, stock
man on South Spring creek; Ar
thur Broadhurst, who spends con-
siderable of his time here, and the
youngest son, Charles, who lives
in Laramie, but who has been
here of late working with his
brothers. Ali but Willis Broad.
hurst were born in Wyoming, and
he was born in California. The
sympathy is extended by this en-
tire valley to those who remain.

Good Dance at Encampment.

The local lodge at Encampment
of the Royal Neighbors gave a
very fine social dance last Friday
might, there being a good live
crowd. A chicken supper was
served at 6 o'clock and at mid
also, which was we'll patron
ized, and did credit to the culin-
ary experience of the Encamp-
ment ladies'. The committee in
Charge of the affair was Miss
Dolly Hopka and n or two 9TH
on ladies'. The dance lasted until
A o'clock Saturday morning, when
all beat it for their respective
Modes. Music was furnished by
Walter Lenke of Encampment and

In Cowboy Costumes.

At st. Augustine, Florida, the Ho-
tel Magnolia gave a grand masquer-
ade ball on March 10th, and in the
account of the big society affair ap-
pearing in the Evening Record, pub
lished in that city, we note the fol-
lowing paragraph with reference to
the costumes of the gentlemen:
"Among the men wearing the
best costumes and assuming the
most effectual DISCUSSES were Ira
B. Casteel and f. Fl. Healey, who
we're western cowboys. They are
Westerners from Encampment,
Wyoming, and being ~''ranchers"
themselves happened to have
their whole cowboy outfits with
them"
This was most certainly in line
with the tastes of these men, as no
thing could suit either more than a
masquerade, and it is needless to say
that they would be found in the front
ranks. MI. Casteel is especially not
ell for his unique ability in such af-
fairs, making his own suits. We will
bet the boys had a good time.

must call it a cabin for no other
name would be suitable for my

tiny brook laughing as it dances
over the rocks-down, down, down,
ever, ever downward. Hear the
pines whispering TO each other.
Now hear the call of the Gang

OLD TIMER
Grand Ball Big So

Four Hundred People Assemble fer Big
Time and Supper.
Communicated J

What do you know about the
Old Timers Fourth Annual on
st. Patrick's day in the evening
at the opera house in S~aratogap
They were there-all the old
timers in the valley between the
ages of ten and a hundred. To
BE- exact there were two excep-
tons, one a victim of anticipation
and the other of appropriateness.
Didn't have the dough-ra-me. The
attendance was worthy of the oc.
Casion.
Having entered the hall your
attention is attracted by the alb
sence of a smile from many faces.
All of those were hung upon the
wall for decorative purposes. And
you should have seen those dec
orations. A specimen of every
thing that walks or flies over
mountain or plain vas artistically
arranged upon the walls, and the
acme of scenic beauty was OBJ
tanned by stretching wire fencing
across the front of the stage and
weaving in a thick mass of small
evergreen trees, then standing a
ife.size deer on one side and an
antelope on the other. Some in
spiIation about that.
AS the rose by any other name
would smell as sweet,
So the band, though not John
Philip Souss's, can't be beat.
They charmed, they stimulated,
they electrified. Their force was
irresistible, and the bewildering
".-- ne "Grand March" was
guided to a successful termination
by Hon. j. B. Maghee and wife,
and was merged into an exempli-
fication of the Old Timers Tur-
key Trot under the leadership of
Hon. Gale Cook and Mrs. Geo.. W..
Sisson. Following this the ar.
rangement of dances passed into
the hands of the only floor mana
ger in the valley, MI. Andrew
Burgess.
The turkey supper furnished
by the committee and served on
The stage filled everyone with ad-
miration, as we'll as good things
to eat. The very best obtainable
regardless of cost, and in unlimit-
ed quantities.
AS a matter of course the sue
cess of the entertainment was due
to the tireless and harmonious eff
fort of the committee, Messrs. G.

Burdett and VIM. Mace.

F.O. WILLIAMS
Dies at His Home in
Santa Monica
Pioneer Was Resident Of This Valley for
Many Years.

Frank o. Williams died in San
ia Monica, Calf, on the 18th
inst, but no one was informed
here of his death until the 10Th,
at which date WE were going to
press last week. This notice came
as quite a shock to the people of
this valley, who have known Mr..
Williams for many years. He
left here II years ago in company
with his life long partner, Henry
Jones, and they have since lived
there continuously. The funeral
was held at the home at IL O'Clock
Wednesday morning, and the body
was cremated at Rosedale.
Mr.. Williams was a bachelor.
He was born in Litchfield county,
Conn, in l84S, making him 69
years at the time of his death.
His closest living relative is a
brother, DR.. F. 81. Williams of
Bristol, Conn. He came to Wy
oming in 1865, and a few years la
ter formed a partnership with
Henry Jones, whom he met upon
coming to this state.
Later they settled on Calf creek
on what is now known as the
Jones & Williams ranch, which is
run at this time by Jones & Will
ford, Frank Jones, of the firm, be-
ing the son of Henry Jones.
During the life of Mr.. Williams
in Wyoming he was many times a
representative to the Legislature
from this county, al we'll as Wy.
oming commissioner to the
Worlds Fair at Chicago in 1898.
He was a lifelong friend and
companion of such old timers as
the late Judge Kuykendall, A. h.
Huston and Col. Crawford, who
preceded him as pioneers into the
world to come. He was a faith.
full and consistent friend, and his
wonderful memory made him an
extraordinary interesting talker
and entertainer. We have spent
many pleasant hours in his COM
pany, and his graphic history of
the early day left an impression
on all who heard him.
Death vas due to cancer of the
stomach. Immediately following
the death of Mr.. Huston, Mr..
Williams went home and to bed
with the full knowledge he would
never leave il until death came.
He was conscious to the end, bat
suffered considerable, and had
made all plans for mis- own funer-
al and cremation.

oPiohuoT SUCH Us 10 not IOunQ In
the palaces of the wealthy.
This is my home in the noun
tains. Sit down on the door step,
never mind the dust. 1 hope you
shall enjoy your visit with me.
But bark! VIVA, is that?
Listenl Someone is singing
perhaps tits the wood fairies and
rs you do not believe in them I
wish you to see. This is their
valley 1 believe.
Look coming from under a steep
rugged rock on yonder hillside
we see a troop of tiny fairies not
more than five inches high and
clothed in a different colorsd
gauze, some purple, some pink,
some lavender. One dear little
fairy who is singing louder and
sweeter than all the rest is clad in
delicate green and a crown of
rainbows on her beautiful golden
hair and her face is lighted with a
halo of sunshine and we rightly
judge that she is the queen.
Now they stop and their beau.
tiful queen seats herself in a large
blue columbine while all the 9TH
ers crowd around posing in differ
ent positions OIL the grass.
We hear a murmur of voice and
see the queen speaking, but even
If we were close enough we could
not understand them.
We must keep very still for fear
they will see US and vanish away.
They move slowly down the
hill and now are standing by the
creek. Lookl All the fairies have
darted into the water and are now
riding on the backs of the fishes.
Don't you wish you were a
fairy? But suppose we go on
now-we wander up the valley
talking about and wondering what
these fairies do, until some one in
the lead calls out "Haltl" and
points to the creek where we see
the woodland fairies basking in
the sun and strange to say they
are not a bit wet.
Sit down on the grass and make
no noise for we wish to take a
good look at them. We soon see
that one of the features of fairy
land is beauty, for each fairy,
twelve counting the queen, is very
beautiful and each carries a tiny
wand. But look-see that tiny
little one in scarlet. She must be
in trouble about something aud
now the others have crowded
around her and all seem to be
offering her sympathy.
But now they see us and gaze
in wonder for a moment and then
much to u surprise the queen
comes slowly forward, makes a lit
tie bow, truly royal, and says in a
gracious voice:
Good people, we are in great
trouble. Our darling sister Clea
has lost her wand; perhaps you
can help US hunt It,"
We answe most respectfully
and strain u eyes to find the
tiny wand. But 1 must confess L
looked more at the strange, beau
tiful little creatures than for the
wand.
We hunt for quite a while when
suddenly l set my foot too close
to a tiny %glittering object. The
fairies pick it up and talk very
fast in fairy language for several
minutes and then the queen in
vites US to fairylsnd for a visit.
We most readily accept and a
little fairy comes forward singing
a quaint little song and as she
sings we feel ourselves growing
small and soon are no larger thar
our tiny companions.
We follow this merry group
through the opening in the elf
and come upon a most beautiful

A GENERAL SURVEY OF
The WAR

Twenty-four persons were killed and
! twenty-seven injured in a Zeppelin
raid over Paris. Ten Of the wounded
were placed in hospitals owing to the
severity of their hurts. .
The Zeppelins made second visit
and dropped several bombs, but de-
tails are not yet available.
Thirty French aeroplanes searched
the remote air regions above Paris
for the Zeppelin raiders of whose ap-
pearance warning had been given. By
the time it had reached the edge of
one of the old quarters of the city
several of the airmen were able to
make out its pale yellow shape $4,000
feet from the earth.
The Germans delivered an attack
upon French positions south of the
Somme, opposite Dompierre. The
German infantry was twice repulsed
and thrown back into their trenches
by rife firing and curtain of fire
from the French artillery.
The following official statement was
issued in Paris:
''The allies are replying Jointly to
the proposal of the United States in
viting merchantmen to discontinue
carrying guns"
Mails destined for the Dutch col
ony of Java were taken by British au-
thorities off the steamer Rembrandt,
which sailed from Amsterdam on
Jan. 26 for Java, according TO the
Overseas News agency Of Berlin.
Situations unchanged, both in Meso-
potamia and on the Caucasus front
are reported by the Turkish war Of
fee.
The most notable incidents reported
are the recapture from the Russians
of a strongly defended position by
the Turkish forces engaged in the
Caucasus campaign, and the taking of
1000 camels from the British in the
Mesopotamian operations.
The Turkish battle cruiser Sultan
Selim, formerly the German cruiser
Goeben, despite seven serious actions
and several minor engagements in
which she has been factor, is still
fighting unit, apparently as efficient
as at the outbreak Of the war.
The Russians are surrounding Ere

ficials have fed, according to reports
reaching Athens. A strong Russian
column is advancing TO the Tfgris val
ley, the advices add--
