SENATOR CAlLEN
VISITS GLENW0OD

Senator Dick Callen made his fare
well visit to Glenwood Wednesday
evening prior to his departure for
Denver to assume his legislative du-
ties in the coming session.
Senator Callen is about as much in
the dark as the rest of us as to what
is to happen at the big building on the
hill after the inauguration Of Cover
nor Sweet and the beginning of the
legislative session, but he says that
unless the session can enact legisla-
tfon of real value to the people, he
thinks the senators and legislators
ough to vote 20 adjourn early and go
home. There is no use Of saddling the
people with the Indebtedness naturally
incident to a legislative session unless
something can be accomplished by way
Of legislation of real and lasting bene-
fit to the people, so says Senator
"Dick' Callen of Garfield county,
and we believe the taxpayers Of Colo
RADIO will agree with him.

GROUND TO DEATH
BENEATH THE TRAIN

Charles II Weaver, resident of
Leadville, calne to Eagle last Satur-
day, and Sunday morning bought a
railroad ticket to Glenwood, with the
intention of boarding train No. 10 for
this city.
He was seen standing at the edge of
the depot platform at Eagle as the
train approached tho station, and
whether he was taken with nv or
whether he was seized with suicidal
mania is not definitely known. His
body was seen to tip forward as
though he was hurting himself on the
track, and in another instant the train
had struck him and he was ground to
pieces.
Deceased leaves wife and three
children in Leadville, IA, and years
of age. The family is in destitute oir-
cumstances, and as the father was q
slave to gambling it is believed that
he lost in gambling the little money
he had and which he knew his family
so badly needed, and then, in fit of
despondency, planned his own destruc-

Young Son Of County Com
missioner Coulter Sustains
Compound Fracture
RECOVERY IS DOUBTFUL

On Christmas day while Albert, the
14-year old son of Commissioner and
Mrs. r. p. Coulter, was attempting to
drive a COW at the ranch, he met with
a serious accident which may cost him
his life, although every care is being
given him and every possible effort is
being made, looking to his recovery.
The lad was on foot and with his
arms outstretched was trying to
"shoo' COW that was about to break
past him and join some others in
distant field. The animal rushed to-
ward the boy, and with her head
caught him in the stomach and tossed
him in the air, balancing him Temporal
rily on her head. The boy then fell
to the ground, and as the place was
steep, icy hillside, the COW fell with
sliding movement on top of the boy,
his head being caught beneath the body
of the COW, with the result that the
lad sustained. broken nose and
compound fracture of the skull.
\ physician was at once summoned
from New Castle, and later the boy
was brought to the Glenwood sanitari-
um, where he is showing some improve
ment, having partially regained con-
sciousness, and although bleeding at
the nose, eyes and ears, it is believed
that danger from infection or blood
clots is almost past and that he will
gradually recover. The conditions
were so favorable Thursday afternoon
that Mr.. Coulter felt warranted in re-
turning to his ranch home on Garfield
creek.

TOO MUCH PLAY
MAKES Jack POOR

Judge Gary of the steel corporation
recently suggested to his branch man
ayers the propriety Of sparing few
minutes each day from their golf for
the purpose Of assisting him in making
little money for the corporation.
Really, isn't this golfing idea just a
little bit overdone?" asks a writer in
the Engineering and Mining Journal
Press of New York, who goes ON to
say: Let us confess it manfully and
look Judge Gary and the rest of the
-unblinkingly in the face. One
can have too much of good thing,
whether it be milk or whisky. A prov
erb says, "All work and no play makes
Jack a dull boy" but the proverb,
like others, has its corollary, which is
equally true: CAN play and no work
makes Jack a poor boy" In this mat
ter, as in most Of the affairs of life,
a happy medium and sane compro-
mise is desirable. We have known
young men that were so devoted to
their golf that they allowed the pro-
cession of life to pass while they were
playing skittles in the alley, as it
were. We have known others that kept
their noses SO closely to the grindstone
that they missed the perfume of the
rose. In truth, we had supposed that
intensity of aim as expressed by close
application to business was a mark of
the young American. We venture to
suggest that although golf may not be
game for old men only, it is dan
gerous pastime for the young man on
the Threshold of career, because it
Is so extravagant of time. A good
game of tennis can be played in an

WINTERS APPOINTS
HIS UNDERSHER|fF

Sheriff-elect George L. Winters yes
terday announced the selection of his
undersheriff, who will take up his
duties at the beginning of Mr.. Win
ters' term on January 8.
The lucky appointee is Luther G.
Rater, q well known resident of Rifle,
and at present engaged in the restau-
rant business in that town. He served
as town marshal of Rifle about two
years ago, and is known to possess the
qualities which are needed in the sher-
ff's iffice.
Ever since the November election
all sorts Of rumors have been afloat
as to the man Winters would favor with
an appointment as undersheriff. Even
prior to election there were many who
pretended to speak with a positive
knowledge as to Mr.. Winters choice
for this position in case OF his cleo
tion. In this respect gossips were
much wiser than Winters, who had no
idea at election time as to whom he
would appoint as his assistant.
One set of busybodies made sure
that George would go to his old home
town of Carbondale for his undersher-
iff, and another bunch of wise ones
was equally certain that he would
make choice from some one in Glen
wood, but both guesses were wrong,
for George decided very soon after his
election that he would not look to
e.hter Of these two towns for his as
sistant, but it was only during the
past few days that Mr.. Winters de.
cided to appoint Mr.. Rater, who was
not even an applicant for the place.
Mr.. Winters believes that in the Sc
lection Of Mr.. Rater he has secured a
man who will prove of real help to
him IN carrying out the important
work of the sheriff's office. Mr.. and
Mrs .Rater will close their restaurant
and will take up their residence in
Glenwood within the next week.
