PUEBLO FLOOD PICTURES
TONIGHT

This evening at the Strand a reel
of pictures taken OF the Pueblo
flood will be shown.
Two cameramen we're working in
the vicinity OF Pueblo on other
scenes at the time the flood hit that
city. They were right on the job
and were able to get pictures OF the
stricken city when conditions were
at their worst.
A representative OF The Repub-
lican this morning reviewed the
flood pictures. After viewing this
reel OF pictures we can state that
the Newspaper accounts OF the trag-
edy were not exaggerated. in fact,
No newspaper account could depict
the terrible catastrophe in any de-
gree as perfectly as these pictures 1t.
These picture r we'll worth see
ing and we urge the people OF Raw
Inns to go to the Strand this evening
and see them.

STONE CRUsHER RE-OPENED

For the past week Rawlins people
have been hearing the familiar sound
OF blasting several times u day as
the result Of an order received here
. few days since to the effect that
the crusher should be re-opened i'm
m~ediately.
The reason for the order was that
the Union Pacific found that its
roadbed on It's Gering. Nebraska
branch was being washed away and
that quick work would be necessary
to save several miles of track. The
Rawlins crusher was ordered to fur
nish 80 car loads of crushed stone
Just as quickly Is possible.

and is befitting Of an organization
~distinctively American, such as the
Benevolent and Protective Order OF
Elks. This exercise marks the birth
OF the American Flag upon which
the Order OF Elks places its destiny.
The program was, indeed. n
worth hearing and deserving OF an
attendance that would fill the entire
hall. The musical numbers by Mrs.
N. l.. France. Flag OF the Free"
and H. Breitenstein. Columbia. the
Gem OF the Ocean" were we'll rem
dered and a treat to those who
heard them. The Flag History was
given by II. ~Breitenstein, and the
Elks' Tribute of the Flag by N. R.
Greenfield. The Altar Services and
the Erecting the Floral Bell OF
Liberty upon the altar by the officers
was very impressive. The services
