SAW CLARENCE
BRUCE KILLED.

II shall always remember when ~
came thru from Westen Cclerndo and
picked up the Gunnison boys for Fun
ston, that Clarence Bruce stood ON the
back platform n the train pulled ont
and Is he swung his hat to some
friends said, well, girls, I'll die fiRlIt-
ing Sure enough, that was Exactly
the way he died, for was not Is feet
away on the morning Of the 18th Of
September in the st. Mihiel drive
when burst Of German shrapncl hit
Bruce and three other boys of the
89th."
I It was Frank Stampfel, a soldier
from Rico, who spoke at the train
yesterday while 35 boys of the seth
Division were stretching their legs
and enjoying the refreshment pro-
vided by the Red Cross. Stampfel
said they went over the top at about
l:30. The line was moving steadily
ahead when Bruce was killed, he
thought instantly, altho none could
stop to see. THE ambulance workers
were close behind, ami when he re-
turned later Bruce was buried with
five others under little mound Of
earth between Fliery and Essay.
They were both from Co. H, 355th
Inf, and had grown well acquainted
in the months Of training together.
Bruce was one Of our Gunnison
boys who made the supreme sacrifice
for his country. Originally from
Marble. he had lived in the county
seat for some months before going TO
Funston.

indeed the court room Is constantly
crowded. since few happenings have
caused more general excitement than
the poisoning Of half hundred girls
and boys by croton oil ut the High
School alumni dance in Odd Fellows

Prof. Goldsmith recommended five
methods Of procedure to accomplish
the eradication Of this pest. First,
no citizen should be permitted to let
water overflow in streets or alleys.
Second, sides Of bitches should be kept
smooth. Third, park the ditch banks
BY keeping grass cut like q lawn.
Fourth, cut on the flow Of water in
city ditches for two days a week.
Fifth, use oil in careful quantity.
While in our open soil the ground
will probably dry so that the wiggle-
tails will all die in two dry" days n
