stolen from the ranch of Geo.
Campbell on Rattlesnake creek
last week were recovered near
Elk Mountain Tuesday, but the
thief or thieves were not appre-
hended, as we go to press. Dep
atty Sheriff Scott and others from
here followed the trail over Elk
Mountain, and others took up the
track from there and made a care
full search, finally locating every
thing but the chaps. Apparently
the horses had been abandoned.
A reward of 500 is offered by

Ellsworth Schilt.
Contributed

On Saturday morning of last
week our entire community was
shocked by the message that lit
tie Ellsworth Schilt had just pas
sed away at the hospital in Raw
Inns.
Very few knew that he was ill.
He became suddenly taken sick
on Tuesday, and on Thursday his
condition became alarming and
he WAS taken to the hospital in
Rawlins, where an operation was
performed for appendicitis. He
never rallied and on Saturday
morning at 8 o'clock he passed
away.
Ellsworth was born in this city
on May IL, 1909, and WAS indeed
one of our own little boys. Ev-
cry day we've seen him in our
midst, on our streets and in our
schools. VIZ shall miss him and
may God comfort the mother and
father who miss him most of all.
The whole community join them
and extend their sympathy in
their great bereavement The last
services were held at the Presby-
terrain church, Rev. Haupt and
Rev. Burr uniting in the last sad
rites
The beautiful flowers, from the
hot house boquets, to the dainty
nosegays, picked by the hands of
the tiny school mates showed the
love and sorrow of old and young.
May the mother and father
know the meaning of the fearful
eye, the clasp of our hand, and
may they look up in their sorrow
and feel that their little Ellis.

being an easy winner. This was
u miles, change saddle and ride
five horses Auderson's work was
perfect in the fact that he never
made a single wrong move, and
was sure of his ground every foot.
This was close enough to be inter-
esting until the fourth horse.
The slow auto race had about
twelve entries, but most of them
quit before they got far, and the
money brought home by Freeman
Cook first and Otis Mowry sec
ond. This race was a half mile in
high gear, and slow time was
something over nine minutes.
The riders up in the big buck
ing contest the second day were
Cook, Baiers, Tapers, Wallace
and Mcdonald. From these were
chosen the three former for the
finals, Cook taking first money
with Baiers second. Ali of the
boys put up splendid rides, but it
was plain that Cook made the
three cleanest rides, drawing good
buckers. Baicrs put up a fine
ride at the last. Tapers was
thrown, virtually after having
made the ride. His horse bucked
to the fence and he loosened up
in the saddle, preparing for the
fence jump he figured the horse
was going to make; upon reach
ing the fence the horse turned,
not jumping, but Tapers did.
Arrah Wanna won the money
for the best bucker.
The town was well lighted and
the evenings were spent in the
picture shows and the dance hall.
The Fair put up a pavilion under
canvas, which was used for a part
of the evening the first night for
dancing, and was intended to be
used the second night for the
street mask ball but a rain cooled
things off and there were only a
few masked.
Owing to the sudden illness of
Prof. Bowman of the University
he was unable to attend the Fair

pointment to the people as well

The ladies' nail-driving contest

two 4O-penny spikes in a log, and
the fastest time was 121 seconds.
In the ladies half mile race
Harriet Lee was first, with Mrs.

The half-mile running race,

string of buckers was heavy, and
all of the boys made excellent
rides, except Middleton, whose
horse came very near falling and
WAS compelled to pull" a little
leather. although the boy seemed
to be a good rider, but this dis
qualified him for the finals.
SECOND DAY
The afternoon program Tuesday
started with the Rep race, which
consisted in the riders going to
bed with chaps and boots off, get.
ting up, dress, saddle one horse,
pack the other with a diamond
hitch, and run around track, half

over so far as the celebration is
concerned, and it was the best
pleased crowd that ever came off
the grounds at the close Tuesday
night. Some $500 people were
here and took in every thing and
enjoyed every minute. Saratoga
was a good representation of the
best people of the county and
there was no disturbing elements
to mar a perfect event.
The exhibition of livestock was
above par and some of as fine
animals as ever were shown were
in attendance at the grounds here
this week. Canary & Sons exhib-
tied their thoroughbred Hereford
show stock, which we're classy
stuff. We vert sorry to not see
more of the pure bred and grade
cattle of the valley. 9. A. Ken
naday had some extra good Dur
ham bulls, which took blue rib
bons in their class.
Horses of several breeds were
exhibited. This included draft
mares, stations, colts and mules,
owned by different ranchmen owe
the valley. Among the best was
such owners as Archie Anderson
of Encampment, II. P. Flohr and
Chas. Vyvey of Beaver creek, w.
K. Tilton, Brush creek, Frank
Jones, Calf creek, Andrew Dahl,
of Jack creek and Ralph Wood
of Elk Hollow and VIM. Turn
bull of Saratoga and the mules
were owned by Robert Corpening.
Some very good sheep were ex-
hibited by Want Bros. and w.
j. Scarrow, which took first and
second premiums, and the hogs
shown by several ranchmeu were
good. III. P. Flour and G. A.
Kennaday carried away most of
the honors on pigs.
There was a good display of
poultry, some of it from Snake
river, and nearly all were in the
prize winning class. In many
cases it is impossible TO secure
the names of the owner in time
to get it ready for press, hence
the absence of same.
The art building was beautiful
ly decorated, with bunting and
e~Vergreens, MS we'll as the grounds
aud grandstand. The decorations
are directly due to Secretary Cas-
lerl, who also secured the street
decorations for the town. This
building was comfortably full OF
everything from vegetables to
huwers. The fancy work depart
mrnt WAS we'll filled and WAS a
display seldom seen. This was
needlecraft, knitting and crochet
The vegetable and grain rxhib-
It's were about as good Ms could
be found in the state, and includ-
ed every kind of garden truck,
and all kinds of field grass and
grains. Potatoes in abundance,
sweet corn and even Tomatoes,
while some crab apples also at
tracted some considerable com.
ment.

bread and cake was the hardest
work placed before any judges al

There were so many people here
this week during the Fair that we
threw up our hands, trying to get
the names of visitors from the sur
rounding country. People were here
from Laramie, Rawlins, Encampment,
and other places, and it would take a
paper twice this size to chronicle the
entire list, but we are safe in the as
sertiou that nearly every person in
the valley was here, and we were
glad to ses them all.

Official Credit

We are assuming at this time res
possibility that is 10 easy undertake
ing and that is the praise due to the
officials of the Carbon County Fair
Association for the Seventh Annual
Fair. We have heard so much favor
and have been so many times re-
quested to make a special mention of
the matter, that we are almost at sea
to take the position Of thanking them
for the people. If we fail, we stand
corrected, and no back talk.
The first thing on the program will
be to doff your hats every time you
meet Secretary Casteel for the next
six months. If ever a man undertook
an unpleasant, extremely hard and
trying task, it was Casteel, when he
whirled in to make a county fair this
year. Short notice, unpaid back pre-
miums, no enthusiasm, no money,
and worst of all-no heart among the
fair people. Under this condition
Richmond was elected president and
Casteel secretary, and they few at it.
Mr.. Casteel worked night and day
from that minute on until he LETT for
his Cow creek ranch last evening.
He never gave up, but worked, plan
ned, perspired, and out of a conglom-
GRAFTON Of mostly nothing brought
out the most successful, most enter
tanning fair this county has ever wit
messed.
Unable to get the necessary help
he used some of his own ranch and
Office men. He not only did the
planning, but did more actual hard
work than any two men should at
tempt. He was ever, where, filling a
dozen places at onca, and through it
all he never overlooked a single de-
tail, no matter how small. His judg-
es were chosen with infinite care. He
selected everything himself, and saw
that it was in its place.
With it all Mr.. Cssteel did one Of
the biggest feats of all in raising the
funds to pay the back premiums {,
which has practically been accom-
plisbed. He neglected his entire
private business, not only giving his
OVID money but donated his time,
which if paid in money could not
compensate him for his services, as
ingenuity of this kind knows no sal
AIRY bounds. Not only the associa-
ton owes hun an unpaid debI Of e
er-ending gratitude, but the people
of the entire county feel that without
this genius the Seventh Annual
would have been u fat failure.
We take this space in behalf of the
entertained to thank Nh. Casteel and
the officials and individuals who as
sisted him, fully aware OF the feeble
attempt to do the occasion justice.
