Mrs. William Holmes Killed,

A sad accident occurred about three
O'Clock Saturday afternoon just this
side of Bear Creek when the auto truck
driven by William Holmes went over
the grade instantly killing Mrs. Holmes
while Mr.. Holmes received broken
collar bone and other injuries. The
accident was discovered by the crew
on the north-bound passenger train, it
being necessary to move the truck off
the track before the train could get by.
Mr.. Holmes was trying to make his
way to MIR. Virden's when found, but
was so badly injured that he had to be
assisted to the house. Medical aid was
summoned and everything possible
done to make the injured man comfort
able. Undertaken J. H. Adams came
down from Telluride and took the re-
mains of Mrs. Holmes to that place
Sunday.
Mr.. and Mrs. Holmes came to Tellu-
ride from Michigan about two months
ago on account of Mrs. Holmes health.
She was improving in health and they
had decided to spend the winter in New
Mexico. Mr.. Holmes had light auto
truck fitted up with every convenience
for travelling and camping and they
were on the way when the accident
occurred.
The deceased leaves husband and
tour email children. The children are
with relatives in Michigan. Also a
brother who lives at Telluride.

The Firemen held their regular
monthly meeting Monday evening.
There was good attendance and two
new members were added to the roll.
Quite a number of persons were
alarmed when the whistle blew calling
the firemen to the meeting. thinking
that there was fire. Do not be
alarmed when the whistle blows or the
fire bell rings. 1t is the business of
the members of the hose company
to get the apparatus to the fire and
put it out in the least possible time.
If they fail then there is plenty of
time to become alarmed. The time
for you to be alarmed and to alarm the
fremen as quickly as YOU can. is when
your own property is on fire. If you
take ordinary care the chances are that
this will never-happen.
