W. II. Endner

William H. Endner is dead. Gunni-
son citizens and friends of the
family could hardly believe il,
when the news was received here that
Mr. Endner had died in Denver that
morning. Death was due 10 pneu-
monia,
Mr.. Endner was taken i'll on Tuse-
day. the l4th and was removed to n
private hospital, as Nrs. Endner was
visiting in California with their
daughter. His son, Harry. was
notified and Immediately left for Den
yer. Mr. Endncr vas supposed TO be
on the road to recovery, when sud
den change for the worse occurred and
death came AT three O'Clock Wedncs-
day morning. He was 65 years of
age.
Mr.. Endncr was one Of the pioneer
buildcra OF Gunnison, in very real and
literal sense. Not only as an enter
prising citizen. large taxpayer and
business man, but dozens, we might
say hundreds Of residences and busi-
ness blocks in our city are his handi-
work.
Wm. II. Endner came to Gunnison
IN 1879 from the east In 1886, he
formed partnership with J. A. Parks
in the lumber business and progressed
on large scale, soon spreading TO
Aontrose and Grand Junction. In the
early COS he bought out Mr.. Parks
interests and in 1902, organized a new
company. Gradually. however as the
yeafs went by, he turned the manage
ment of the lumber business over to
his son, Harry. at Gunnison, and his
second son, Howard was for a time in
charge OF the Montrose mills.
One year after coming In Gunnison,
Mr.. Endner returned TO Illinois and
married the lady of his choice. Four
children blessed the union, Harry
w, Howard. Arioa, (now Mrs. Albert
Niece of Los Angcles,) and Charles.
All of them with their mother survive.
II was about 1902 when Mr.. Endner
decided to move 10 the capital city.
He became interested in the state lum-
ber trade and established mills at
Arloa, near Mancos, Colo. and was al
so interested in lumber yards at En-
glewood. Colo. Two years ago he sold
out and since that time has been con-
nected with the moving picture bust
ness at Englewood, near Denver.
Gunnison county always held a
warm place in his affections. II was
his greatest pleasure to spend at least
| week or two every summer, fishing
in the Gunnison streams. He was
noted as fisherman who always go,
the big fellows and loved to tell tales
of how he "played the speckled beau
ties, whose cunning tricks were lost
on him.
It is indeed with the deepest of re-
gret and sorrow that we chronicle the
passing of our friend and former citi-

Tho senate had already passed this

Not only have the prices Of mining

shortage of labor has materially af,

Washington, Dec. Senators
from western a'atcE have introduced
bills providing that in the future the

Burleiggh Grimes
Gets Arm in Trim
To, Tackle Yankees

JACKSONVILLE, Fla, March 24.-1f
confidence counts for anything another
Brooklyn victory over the Yankees is
in. Uncle Robbie had his aggregation
out at Barrs Field for about two hours
this afternoon and although the weather
was favorable, rain threatened to put
a halt to the practice session, the
athletes went through their drilling
like gang of promoted school boys.
The winning spirit has not escaped
even the most remote rookie in the
camp, and every one is confident the
Yankees are in for another beating to-
morrow afternoon. Every member of
the Flatbush squad was full of ginger
as Uncle Robbie sent the players
through their workout. Four or five
hurlers pitched to the batters and
many long clouts were registered. Bur-
leigh Grimes was one of the twrlers
Robbie used on the mound, and although
the spitball artist has been in the camp
less than week he is beginning to
respond to the practice sessions he
has gone through.
AS Zack Wheat is the only left
handed batter in the present Brooklyn
batting order, Uncle Robbie is trying
to make a turnover hitter out of his
new find, Bernie Neis. The youngster
was ordered to hit from the wrong side
of the plate this afternoon, and he
showed promise of developing into a
good left-handed batsman.

five yards, in 9:44 Is.
Second place went to Matt J. Lynch,

former Jersey Harriers runner. The

Tor the checkers in placing the runners.
The Paulist Athletic Club won all
three places in the one-mile handicap
run, when Robert Spear AL Hulsebosch
and Eddie Rank crossed the finish line
in the order named. Spear, allotted

The colts came from behind to-day

The regulars scored again in the
