Storm Is Very
Wide Spread

The storm seems to be general and
is lengthening into Q week Of wind and
piling snow drifts. At Gunnison the
depth of snow is around fifteen inches
while at Crested Butte and Bald
win it is variously estimated from four
TO five feet and still coming. Pitkin
has good deal of snow, but the Mar
shall pass range and Cochetopa hills
are not getting It 50 heavy.
West Of us toward Montrose, the
storm is heavy, and papers report that
on the plains in Kansas and Nebraska,
trains are from . day to several days
late.
As we 60 to press the skies are still
splitting snow, but the weather is not
uncomfortable.
Altho some cars have tried the
passes early in the week, person
must take chances on getting through
over Cochetopa pass or Blue Mesa, and
it would be decidedly unwise to at
tempt il without . heet Of heavy cars
together on the trip.

ROOSTER WAS
PICKED" ALL RIGHT

At the church bazaar last Saturday
a thorobred X. /. rooster had been
donated for sale. J. j. Shackleford Of
Jacks Cabin had his eye on this roost-
er and commissioned his sister, Mrs.
J. r. Spann, who is in our city for a
chased the bird and carefully said to
her little folks, "Now take it home and
picket it in the back yard SO it will
be ready for Uncle Jim.
The rest may be imagined. On Mrs.
Spann's arrival at home an hour
later her orders had been carried out
TO the letter. The fine rooster was
picked as clean as might be expected
whether in the back yard we have not
learned) and was reposing, fine
plump bird in dishpan for Uncle Jim.

LULU DETT
PLEAs[s PUBLIC

Every moment was q pleasurable
one to the large audience that assem-
bled Tuesday evening TO listen to
Miss Lulu Bett," presented by the
dramatic department of the College.
The play was given in the auditorium,
which. tho only a basement of the
auditorium we hope to have some
day when the building is completed,
has been quite nicely arranged for
public gatherings Of all kinds.
Prof. Damson and q selected orches-
ira discoursed popular music between
acts and won lots Of applause. Mrs.
Katherine Firebaugh Dxmson directed
the successful play.
Perhaps because SO many have read
the book or seen the motion picture, or
followed the serial story as printed re-
Gently in the eNews-C Champion, nearly
all the audience was familiar with the
plot, and that rendered the enjoyment
Of this comedy Of American Man
ners," all the more keen.
In play SO well balanced, and with
each part SO splendidly executed. it Is
perhaps unnecessaryto give superlative
praise 10 any one member Of the cast,
but the part of Grandma Bett, taken
by Miss Josephine Lakin, was general
ly acclaimed. As q wilful, petulant,
half-demented old lady yet at times
loving and keen Of perception she was
superb. Miss Wilma Doig. as Lulu
Bett," won the plaudits Of the people
by her clever transformations, and the
play Of emotions which would have
done credit to asscreen actress. Miss
Norma Gribbin, as "Ina Deacon" dis
played real talent in her part and
was charmingly dressed for the dif-
ferent occasions.
As Diana Deacon" the giddy flap
per. Miss Viola Lane threw herself I'M
to the part with abandon. and was
hawless in its execution.
Little Miss Susan Hogan, a "Mon-
ona," the infant terrible, was letter
perfect in her lines and fine in her
childish acting.
Dwight Herbert Deacon" the heavy
william, or rather the hypocritical, sell
fish and snohbish bad Of the house.
was excelleutly portrayed by Hugh
Palmer who Added 70 former laurels
won in the acting line.
I Bobby Lariin,S was . minor part,
well taken by Bruce Stone who had
worked his lines out very nicely in
deed. Neil Cornish" was another
small, but difficult part, well suited to
Tom Nourse, who neglected no place
in the finish of his part Of the drama.
Hugh Dowd had the part of "Ninian
Deacon" the much travelled and some
what reckless spender, probable biga-
mist and final hero Of the play, q well
balanced piece Of acting, even tho it
did do violence to the book version.
1t is doubtful if this acted story, SO
changed from the original can be call
ed artistic in its ending, tho it may
leave more pleasant taste in the
mouth.
Gunnison audiences have come to
expect well finished plays from the
dramatic department of our college.
and this was no Disappointment.

DAY
GOES FREE

Durango, Dec. 11:-Rod s. Day,
editor of the Durango Democrat. was
found mot guilty" Of the charge of
murder, for which he was tried in
connection with the death Of William
L. Wood, city editor Of the Durango
Herald last April. The verdict was
returned at eight o'clock on Monday
morning, after thirteen ballots had
been taken. The verdict was given to
the court approximately fourteen
hours after the case went to the jury.
Days face lighted up when the
clerk read the formal verdict reached
by the jury.
When the jury was dismissed, Day
shook each by the hand and also re-
ceived the congratulations of his
attorneys and friends. He said in q
formal statement shortly after the
verdict had been returned, that he had
at no time doubted that he would be
acquitted.
Great interest had been manifest
during the session of the trial, which
started last Monday, as both editors
had wide circle Of friends. Day has
been editor Of the Democrat for the
past twelve years. succeeding his
father, the late Dave f. Day.
According to testimony given at the
trial, Day and Wood became enemies
thru o newspaper controversy. They
met on the street one morning and
heated words led TO blows. Day, testi-
flying in his own behalf, declared that
Wood, man Of considerably his ply
sical superior, refused his peaceful ad-
yances and struck him in the face.
Fearing the consequence Of the i'm
pending assault, he said he drew his
automatic revolver and shot from the
hip. The first bullet inflicted mortal
wound. A second shot. Day said, was
fired by him unintentionally in the ex-
citement.
I The case went to the jury at 1910
Sunday morning after an all night
session in the district court to COM
plete closing arguments.
Day, on the witness stand Saturday,
declared he fired the shots which killed
Wood on April oath, but that he did 30
