HOW TO FATTEN

Exchange
In France, the folks eat horses, o
peculiar sort Of dish,
And the Chinaman eats poodle dogs
and rats;
The blue-nosed Nova Scotians live or
divers kinds Of fish,
And the Eskimo can wiggle through
on fats.
The English live on beefsteak, and
their "little sup Of tay,"
And the Cannibals on missionary meat
The Irish live on tpratties'," or on but
termilk and whey,
And the Texan thinks his rattlesnake
. treat.
In Missouri it il corn bread, and in
Georgia it is pone,
With the billy goat It's Aanneletts and
A dog can live on plenty just BY snaw.
And We Al grow Tt on promises and
hope.

Gunnison, May 8, 1898.

Gunnison, May 3, 1898.
Dear Nary
Jack brought me your letter this
evening, and while the rest are finish
ing their supper, I will answer tiff
can manage to keep my wits about
me. Jack is explaining to the boy
that E. L. Miller, who bought out the
Roger blacksmith shop on Tomichi
Ave. this week, does not fix little
boys shoes, only horse shoes. That
kid of mine took his shoes down there
to be fixed.
You are lucky to have such good
luck with your chickens. l have not
started to raise any yet. That re-
minds me of the joke that Charley
Adams had in his paper this week on
Joe Mckee. Mr.. Mckee has six hens
and one rooster, and was telling that
he got six eggs one day, seven the
next, and eight another day-oh, me!
oh, my!
Oh, Mary; you ought to see the love-
ly cake that E. M. Collins is going to
give at the "cake walk" next week. It
is in the store window-um, yum. No
one can take part in the cake walk
unless they have their face blacked.
Jack went down to attend the meet
ing of the county commissioners held
Tuesday evening. Not much to tell.
John B. Turner, who keeps store up
in Whitepine, was present and made
a plea for some good road work in his
section. He is working that mine
they call the May -Mezeppa, under a
lease, and has to have some kind of a
decent road to haul the ore from the
mine. Oh, yes; C. E. Adams, of the
Tribune, was present and made an
awful holler about the way the poor
are imposing upon the county. Jack
says that the poor have to have some
kind of amusemtnt, but then an editor
hasn't any heart.
We received a copy of the annual
catalog from the Agricultural college
at Ft. Collins this week, and there was
a picture of Del Mckee and Clyde
Lang in the photo Of the school milit-
ary company.

POPULAR GUNNISON BOY
CAPTURES RIFLE GIRL

When Tom Doyle alighted from the
incoming train Saturday evening, it
did not need a Sherlock Holmes to
guess that something had happened"
and, when in a minute or so, he was fol
lowed by the lady of his choice, known
to US as Dollie Miller, the knowing
ones smiled and murmured, ~ told
you so."
Friends have known for some time
that wedding was to take place soon,
but that it had already occurred was
something of surprise.
The happy event occurred at Rifle,
Colo, the home of the bride, last
Wednesday morning, April 24. The
ceremony was performed at the St.
Mary's Catholic church, at eight
o'clock, Rev. Father B. F. Stein offici-
ating. Only the immediate family
and relatives were present.
The bride, who was Miss Charlotte
I. Miller, was beautifully gowned in
white silk net over satin, with veil
of bonaz embroidery, and carried a
large bouquet of white brides roses.
The groom was attired in conventional
black. Miss Minnie Miller and Mr..
Joe Miller attended the bride and
groom at the altar. After the cere-
nony at the church, delicious we'd
ding breakfast was served at the home
Of the brides parents, Mr.. and Mrs.
Chas. H. Miller. Later in the day,
the bridal party motored to Glenwood
Springs.
Thomas Doyle is a Gunnison boy,
the son Of Mrs. Thomas Doyle, and a
popular young man. He is EMPLOYED
as fireman on this division of the Rio
Grande railroad.
The bride is not a stranger to our
city, having attended the State Nor
NAL for several years. She is an ac-
complished young lady and Gunnison
friends extend hearty congratulations
to the happy couple.
The wedding gifts were numerous
and costly, testifying to the esteem in
which both are held. Mr.. and Mrs.
Doyle expect to be at home in one of
the Nelson cottages after the first.

THOUGHTS

Sometimes thoughts viii enter the
minds of the newspaper editors, even
though theyare accused of using their
shears to secure the most of their
copy. Occasionally others have
thoughts too. The writer has just fin
ished reading an article by E. r.
Moses, State Highway Commissioner,
which appeared in the current issue
of Kansas Highways and the thought
occurred? How many lived their
lives in the past. How many of US
are prone to allow the set-backs in
our chosen vocation Or our home life
to so distort our minds that we be-
come merely a disgruntled, disap-
pointed automaton existing by means
of three meals day and aunalerably
opposed to any attempt by a so
called visionist to improve our social
or business conditions. This class
has been on earth from time i'm
memorial. Fulton disturbed them
with his steam engine, Bell with his
telephone, Marconi with his wireless
telegraph, and Wright with his aero
plane and finally Girogossiau with
Garabed.
Then there are those who live in
the present. The ones who always
make the best of things. The ones
with whom you are glad to shake
hands and greet with an affectionate
Hello Bill" The fellow who does
his bit today and smiling lets tomor-
row take care of itself. The fellow
who is never discouraged and conf
IDENTIFY goes on building for the fu-
ture, knowing that while it may
prove a personal hardship the next
generation will reap the results.
Let's take a look at ourselves,
where do we stand as an individual,
as q community, as q city. As a
country, as a city we are of the pro-
gressive, smiling, cOngenial 'Hello
Bill'' type. Witness our sewerage
system, water works, electric light
and paving to say nothing OF new
buildings. How many of US know that
we have these public conveniences?
Would We be without them? The
answer obviously is that they are in
the painful minority.
As a county we are yet TO be
awaked to advantage due US. Would
you willingly give up your rural tele-
phone or parcel post? Would not
either prove a serious detriment were
it taken away from you? If it did not
alarm you with the thought of ex-
pense how would you like the road
by your farm to be paved like a city
street?
Now which class are you IN on the
good road problem? Are you satisfied
to just go on as you are or do you
want to be Hello BilP' and believe
with the immortal Longfellow when
he tells US ''Look not mournfuily in
to the past-it comes not back again
wisely improve the present-it is
thine; go forth to meet the shadowy
future without fear, and with man
ly heart"
Watch for some more thoughts
next week. @"Hello Bill"

their paper so they can read it on
Sunday; as 1t was a great many
times the paper did not reach them

KNIGHTS OF COLUMBUS TAKES
IN ANOTHER BIG CLASS
Crowd Was Greatest In History of
HavS Council

Hays Council.
The war spirit and a desire to get
into an organization that is doing so
much for the soldier boys is increas-
ing the number of applications for
membership in the knights of Colum-
bus. There were about $50 appli-
cations in all but owing to the wealth
chr it was impossible for many to
reach here. Those who had charge
of the work were glad the crowd was
no larger than it was it would have
been difficult to handle a greater
number with the limited space Nine
ty-three in all were given the work.
A most excellent dinner was served
at the parochial school building, IN
the evening, and while it did not con-
form entirely with the national food
administration it was served at the
regular dinner hour and took the
place of the ordinary meal The class
composed largely of out OF town
young men and their friends appre-
ciated much the treatment they re-
ceived by the Hays Council Three
hundred and fifty persons were
served to the dinner.
Prof. Alex Meier's orchestra fur
nished music throughout the evening
and his daughter, Mathilda Meier,
charmed her hearers with her beau
tiful voice. Francis Metsger delight
ed all present with a most skillful rem
dition of ''The Minuet." The ap-
plause which followed showed how
keenly the number was appreciated.

This Is to Smile

1t is rumored, (whether true or
not) that the government contemp-
Iates building a cantonment near
Hays, probably a portion of the old
reservation viii be selected as the
site When the government troops
were stationed here at Fort Hays,
this point was considered the health
lest location In the United States.
This Immediate vicinity, the medical
men will tell you, Is practically i'm
mune from typhoid fever. There
never has been a typhoid epidemic
here and one physician told the writer
there never was q genuine case of
typhoid in the city and he has been
a practitioner here for nearly forty
years 1t would seem that Hays
would be an ideal point for the loca-
tOln of a cantonment The HAYS
Chamber Of Commerce should look
the matter up.
