dentally trimmed the Lake City Regu-
lars in n game that afternoon, win
ming by a score of % to IL.

ate one-day celebration, lasting from

day. After dinner free-for- all

three scores, and from then on suf-
fered severe slump of several in
nings. Lake City passed them in the
fourth, and at the end of the first
half Of the eighth, Lake City led by
a score of II to 8. The Gunnison

unusual spirit of rivalry.
The Lake City team is coming to
Gunnison this next Sunday with
blood in their eyes, and will play a
return game at the Normal ball park
Sunday afternoon at 300 o'clock. The
Gunnison team is showing up in
better shape than it has for years,
and the prospects of winning the Cat
tlemen's Days tournament are exceed
ingly good.
The Gunnison delegation went over
in four cars, returning the night of
the Fourth. They stopped on their
way back to attend the dance at
Powderhorn school house, which was
most enjoyable affair. The build
ing was packed, and Pete and Phil

Band" dispensed the music. At mid
night a delicious supper was served
by the Powderhorn folks.

ACCIDENTS OCCUR AMONG
THE LITTLE FOLKS

The fourteen-months- baby boy
of Mr.. and Mrs. ]. ii. Hollenbeck
suffered a terrible accident Monday,
about five o'clock. The youngster
pulled onto its face from the table a
saucer of concentrated lye solution.
Some time elapsed before remedies
In the form of acids and oils could
be applied and the baby's face and
little eyes were badly burned. The
doctor is yet unable to determine
whether either eye will be saved.
An epidemic among the youngsters
of swallowing small articles struck
town this week. Little Marion Han
son had a marble in her mouth and
down it went. Mistress Jean Jones,
daughter Of Rev. Jones, INDUCED in
an anti-saloon button, pin and all,
while the baby of Mrs. Lila Bryan
Campbell lost penny in the same
way. So far, liberal doses of castor
oil have avoided disastrous results.

R|GHT-OF-WAY
DELAYS TAYLOR
PARK HIGHWAY

The County Commissioners held a
three-days session this week, mostly
devoted to road matters, and to ex-
amining and allowing bills against
the commonwealth.
Several sessions were held with
the Forestry officers, represented by
Col. A. S Peck, chief district forester,
VIM. Mendenhall, chief engineer of
the forest service, and Theo. Kruger,
local supervisor. who are trying to get
an arrangement by which the county
and government can cooperate on the
Taylor Park road. All is satisfactory
except that no agreement can be Sc
cured with N. S. Candy for the right
of way thru four miles of canon on
Taylor, which is owned under placer
patents which he bought up. This is
under negotiation at the present time,
and it is hoped the matter can be brot
to conclusion and work started on
this splendid development at ance.
The government officials seem very
anxious to go ahead. and in fact, un-
less this is done the $4,000 which
they have available will be lost to our
county, and the road into Taylor park
which we have hoped for these forty
two years will be definitely delayed.

TROUBLE WITH
COAL MINERS FALSE ALARM

The alleged excitement at the coal
mines in both northern and southern
fields, seems to have been flash in
pan, which gave an excuse for Gov
ernor Shoup and Col. Pat Hammock to
mobolize the troops again.
There is no proof that the burning
Of two railroad bridges and a coal
tipple in Huerfano county was in any
way caused by miners on strike. In
fact Mike Livoda, president of the
union, declares that it was more than
likely deliberately set on fire by the
coal operators to furnish an excuse
for troops. 1t has been altogether
too peaceful for the military forces
of the state.

SERIOUS ACCIDENT ON
SOMERSET ROAD SAT-.

What might be termed fortunate
accident" occurred on the Crested
Butte e-Somerset road shortly after
noon Saturday, when a Ford load of
four Normal girls returning to their
homes at Delta and Crawford for
the weekend, overturned on a slip
perry piece Of road, pinning the driver
and Miss Ethel Olmstead underneath.
For three and q half hours they
were under the car, before help could
be secured to relieve them. Skidding
slightly at a narrow point where a
spring was making the road Shiny,
the rear wheels went near the bank, a
piece Of which broke off. The car
turned squarely over, throwing three
of the girl clear of the car on the
steep but grassy hillside. The top
caught and held against a little
stump. f. J. Gibbs, a taxi driver
recently from Pitkin to our city, was
the driver, and was caught by the
head and with his knee between the
steering gear and the side. He was
hardly able to move but did get his
head loose. Miss Ohmstead was not
seriously injured but could not escape.
The other young ladies' were afraid
to lift the car down the hill for fear
it would be precipitated rs feet to
the bottom, and they could not lift it
up the hill. Soon North Fork resi-
dent driving his horse and buggy to
Crested Butte, came along. He chain
ed the car SO that it could not further
tip over and Embarrassing his horse,
galloped ten miles to the Endner saw
mill, from which point telephone calls
soon brought help. w. q. Whalen
came over from the Buttes with a
doctor, who dressed the wounds and
bruises.
Miss Ohmstead is recovering nicely
with no broken bones. Mr.. Gibbs,
who is q man nearly seventy, suffered
q badly bruised knee, his left ear
chewed up and ribs CRACKED but not
broken.

far as approximately 100000 shop

to obey the orders of the U. S.

against what they considered an un-
fair lowering of wages.
OF the local shopmen in Gunnison,
the waikout was 100 per cent, but only
IA have been employed of late, as
against 80 or more on the pay roll at
times.
In the nation at large, few i'll eff

GUMN|sOM BAND PLAYS
At TELLURIDE FOURTH

The Gunnison band composed main
ly of Normal High School players,
under direction Of F. George Damson,
returned last night from Telluride,
tired, but happy after the big doings,
at which they were major attrac-
ton. They report the celebration as
full of ginger, and many novel events
on tap.
Miss Lorraine Fields Joined the ag-
gregation at Montrose and went up
with them to play the piano in the
orchestra, which furnished music for
dances Monday and Tuesday nights.
The celebration covered Tuesday
and Wednesday and was most eiab-
orate affair. A number of the band
boys entered some of the track events
with Indifferent success. A relay
team composed of Messrss Walker,
Ratekin, Miller and Green took second
in the relay race. Jimmy McGillis
and Will Ratekin entered the "roost-
er race" and were well in the lead
when some one bumped into them,
resulting in fall which sprained Nc
ellis ankle.
The following appreciation Of the
Gunnison band is taken from Tellu-
ride Daily Journal Of Wedneday:
"The 25-piece Gunnison band ar
rived in Telluride from the north on
Monday evening, the train reaching
here at 7:30. The band formed IN
line at the depot, marched up to Colo
RADIO Avenue and on up the main
street playing music. This was the
signal for the celebration to start and
many people gathered in the streets
to hear the band. Many compliments
on the music were heard on every
side.
with the evening meal over, the
crowds gathered again to hear the
band concert by the Gunnison players.
This ended, the street sports began.
"The crack Gunnison band, here for
the big celebration delighted q large
audience with q fine open-air concert,
beginning at about $50 Tusday night
and many persons gathered around
the band stand to hear the splendid
music. The Instrumental music WAS
interspersed with vocal solos render.
ed in pleading fashion."

At eleven o'clock Sunday morning,
the roof Of the residence at the ranch
home of VIM. Ruck, just northwest of
town, was discovered in flames. The
alarm was sent in and the fire laddies
responded, but before they could
reach the place, two men on the roof
with two women manning the pump
and carrying buckets of water, had
quenched the blaze. 1t was a close
call, and considerable damage done to
the roof as it was. However, the
building is fully insured.
