2 SMALL FIRES
DURING WEEK
Union Pacific and the Julssburg
Bakery Victims No Serious
Damage Oo0e

The alarm of fire was an-
nounced twice during the past
week. but no serious damage re-
suited from either blaze. The
first alarm was sent in Saturday
morning when blaze starred in
a box car in the west va ds Of
the Union Pacific. This blaze
resulted in damaging the box
car 1" some extent. The lire
b 'ys responded promptly aud
soon had the fire under cu,.trul.
On Sunday at about the noon
hour another alarm WAS sent IN
and word was quickly circulated
that the Julest'urg bakery was on
fire. The fire equipment was
soon upon the scene, but he
blaze had been extinguished he-
fore the arrival of the fire boys.
l, was the same old story, filling
a gasolene tank with u blaze
nearby. An explosion occurred
and might have resulted in much
more serious damage than viii. b
resulted. As it was the back end
of the building was considerably
scorched, but no one hurt. Pr, .
prietor Glover feels very fortu-
nate that no more damage was
done.
In view of the two recent fire
alarms and the necessity of TAX
ing out the hose wagons, etc., we
suggest that cars should not be
allowed to be left standing d..
rectly in front OF the hose house

causes a loss of time when every
minute is needed in saving prop.
erty as the cars have to be moved
in order to get out with the fire

On last Tuesday night the bus

meeting in the office of the Grit
Advocate for the purpose OF dis
cusslng several propositions per.
tanning to the betterInrnt of bus
mess conditions in this city. TO
say that this meeting WAS har-

present seemed to have one pur-
pose in mind-that of trade
boosting campaign for our citv.
We are glad to see this spirit
prevail and We are sure that
some very satisfactory results
will be derived.
The matter Of holding another
Bargain Day in Juleshurg was
discussed thoroughly and every
Que present expressed themselves
as being in favor OF continuing
this feature. A committee was
appointed, consisting of II. o.
Virgins, Chas. Petersen and p.
K. Mcdowell, to take charge Of
the matter. This committee will
appoint different committees for
the different departments, such

I.addie Laird, 2O-year-old avia-

Laird appeared after Champion

Holds Crowd Speechless

>Circling the track many times
he did spirals in all different
kinds of Angles and held the
crowd by his wonderful work. At
times he would tilt the machine
for moment and from all ap-
pearances was about to turn COM
pletely over. Then, as suddenly
as he had tilted, the machine
would right itself and he would
fly away in a straight line.
Finally the crowd was convinc-
ed of his daring when the planes
were tilted and the machine did
the loop-the-loop so easily that the
crowd gasped. As he flew upside
down in doing the loop, the name
Laird" on the top plane of the
machine was plainly visible to the
crowd.
At times Laird, who is but 20
years Of age, would shut off the
power of his machine and would
glide about in the air, the crowd
thinking meanwhile that he was
ready to make a landing. He
would surprise them by starting
the engine and to the purr of the
motors would fly away for more
startling feats.
Twice he turned completely
over and once he pointed his ma.

LET'S PULL TOGETHER

Julesburg is full of boosters,
showers, and pushers, and each is
working toward a common end.
tt e only difficulty in accomplish
ing definite results, as We see it,
is that We don't work together for
public welfare. Thus it is that
when something of importance is
brought up that will be of great
benefit to Us as whole, old per-
sonal feelings are not forgotten as
they should he, and We 90 at the
matter singIe-handed instead of
joining together in accomplishing
results.
No satisfactory results are ever
accomplished when majority of
the people are working at cross
purposes; for that which is Great
ed by one is dissolved by another.
We have the boosters, the showers
and plsl.ers in Julesburg, but
what We need is unity of pur-
pose, each with his eye centred
upon the goal ahead, and not up
OIL what has happened in the past.
1t surely would be n splendid
thing for Julesburg if We could
get all of the boosters, showers and
pushers together and fix our minds
upon one certain purpose, that Of
making our city move forward.
Let's forget what the other fellow
has done-we will profit by the
future and not the past. Let's
boost side by side and all together
The Grit Advocate wants to see
Julrsburg move forward as she is
entitled to do. We have II delight

MIDLAND DLYCEUM BUREAU

place to say a word for the Lyceum
Course. The Sedgwick County
High School is again this winter
responsible for the financial end
aud since the bureau sees fit to
charge more for this seasons tai
ent than for last years, the school
needs the same hearty response

year plus the demand for few
more season tickets. In spite of
the advance in the contract price,
tickets for the five numbers mauy
be obtained at the same rate,
namely, two dollars. Later seats
may be reserved at Clevelands

program date will be set for that
purpose.

FUSSEL DONE 1T
Both Teams Spiked But Home
Team Proved Stronger Than
Oshkosh Warriors


team up in better class, is some
fair idea believe us. Julesburg
tried that stunt and found out it
works to perfection. Oshkosh did
too, but didn't get strong enough
supporters. =
Fussell, of Big Springs, pitched
grand old ball for the home team,
striking out 16 of the Oshkosh
team and allowing only two hits,
no time during the game did they
look bad to him or the team. The
two scores accredited to Oshkosh
was on account of a foul ball be-
ing called fair by their umpire,
who was no other than DUSTY"
Rhodes pitcher for them when
they were at Julesburg few
weeks ago.
Quite bit of feeling was cen-
tered on the game as the two teams
were evened up on games and by
winning Thursdays game Jules
burg is now one ahead.
The races were pulled off to a
fair crowd and when they all lined
up for the game, quite bunch
was Oh hand for both teams and
when the roofing started you
could tell Julesburg had some fol-
lowing. Everyone said that they
would see a real ball game and
surely it was until it wac dark
but tnen it was hit and run and
our boys got four of the eight
scores in the last two innings,
while Oshkosh didn't get any.
Along in the forth Cain of Osh-
kosh came along and got single,
then their loud noise catcher steps
up and hits the ball way over in
to the horses which were parked
outside the third base foul line
and Law the left fielder has to
wait for the ball to hit an old gray
horse crawl under the buggy and
bring it forth, but horrors, Dusty
who fooled the boys trifle when
they were over here before, pitch
ing for Oshkosh, was umpiring
at the home plate and, just think,
he told the thinking public that
it was fair ball, because both
players had scampered around and
in D home safe and sound, in fact
they were the only two to pass
second.

SUCCESSFUL
BARGAIN DAY
BIG CROWD HERE
JuIesbvss's First Bassaia Day
was q Hunmsr Msrehaats
Busy.

The first Bargain Day held in
Julesburg was grand success and
our merchants that participated
in this event feel that they were
we'll repaid for their efforts from
a trade standpoint. .Julesburg was
the scene Of real business activity
last Saturday and our stores were
crowded with Bargain shoppers
from every section. We noticed
people from Venango. Big Springs,
Chapaell, Ovid, Se'lgwick and
farmers who live Is and 20 miles
in each direction from this city III
town that day, and the territory
within 5 and ten miles of Jules
burg was we'll represented. We
heard a travelling salesman remark
who spent the day here; "What
ia going on here; are you having a
FAIR" We simply said "No, this
is Bargain Day in Julesburg.'
The crowd at the picture show
entertainment during the after
noon numbered close to five
hundred, aud this part Of the
days program proved to be very
popular feature Manager Rozell
of the Hipp thertre had spared no
pains in securing a frst-class pro-
gram for this entertainment and we
have heard numerous comments
upon the afternoons bill. Jules
burg merchants are indebted to
the Hipp management for the
hearty cooperation received in help
ing to make The day success.
Tickets to the matinee were given
all during tire ,iav by our ,nerrh-
ants with small purchases made
at their respective stores.
1t was pleasing indeed to the
merchants of Julrsburg who had
joined the B.rgain Day campaign,
to see our streets thronged, every
available hitch rack tied with
teams and cars parked up and
down our streets in a metropolitan
style. The stores were full and the
clerks had all they could do in
handeling the Bargain Daytrade.
The Bargain Day shoppers SEEM
Ell to have Il pleased look as they
came from the different stores load
Cd with bundles and We have not
heard of a displeased customer.
The merchants did everything
possible to satify the trade and be-
yond doubt enjoyed larger
business than they have had for
some time.
The Free Auction Sale did not
meet much success but no doubt
this feature will he more success
full date. Only q few articles were
brought in for sale and Auction.
Ger Gilchrist deemed it best not
to hold the sale at this time. The
auction sale will be made a sue.
cessful feature later on. 1t was no
fault Of Auctioneer Gilchrist that
the sale was not held as he was on
the ground ready to render his SER
vices had there been enough stuff
on hand to warrant a sale. This
feature can be made a success,
but it is hard to get it started at
fiSt-the next time will probably
be much more successful.
The Grit-Advocate feels jubi-
liant over the results of Bargain
Day and we have a large number
congratulate US upon the manner
in which We handled the publicity
end of the deal. We put in some
real hard work connected with ad.
vertising the event, and from the
manner in which the people re-
apOnded. ia gratifying indeed.

Suffrage Notes

1t is no credit to any woman to be
ignorant of the science of government
and that is Websters definition of pol
itics.
If women should not vote because
their husbands can represent them by
the ballot then why do not fathers rep
resent their sons. If it is just for one
it is Just for the other. The safety of
a democracy lies in giving the vote to
all classes.
If a woman steals from her EN-
ployer does her father, son or any man
serve out her term in prison?
Why is it that the only place in the
world where man wants to represent
woman is at the polls?
