+. W. READER OF
DIXON VISITS RAWLINS

Earl w. Reader or Dixon stopped
over in Rawlins yesterday while en-
route to his home from New York
City where he has been for some
time past comforting with financiers
and railroad men regarding n rail-
road from the Union Pacific to
Craig, Colorado.
Mr.. Reader met with n delegation
of Rawlins businessmen and went
over the entire situation with them.
Mr.. Readers report was very en-
couraging although not sufficiently
complete to be available for publica-
ton.
Mr.. Reader left for Dixon last
night but expects to be through Raw
Inns again early In the week en- route
to New York City where he will hold
further conferences with his eastern
associates.
The work being done by Mr.. Read
er towards securing this railroad to
the Snake River Valley Is certain
to bear fruit and will undoubtedly
also have considerable influence In
bringing the north and south rail
road to this point.

famous colored "Wold Cat" for the
benefit of readers OF the Saturday
Evening Post.
Mr.. Andrew Vela. is not colored
nor has he been Tabled a wild
Cat" perhaps he has never even
heard the chants OF the colored pus-
son from Memphis, Tennessee. yet
Mr.. Vela's ideas on work seem to
be identically the same as those
Just set forth. Work doesn't both
er him and he doesn't bother work.
Consequently, because OF this pet
aversion, Mr.. Vela was last week
hailed before acting Police Magis-
trate I. w. Dinsmore on the charge
of being a vagabond.

Mr.. Vela chose the latter and Is

SOCIETY NOTES
Eiited by Mrs. Pearl Miller,

Gaiety held full sway at the third
annual banquet presided over by the
Rotarians on Tuesday evening at Z
O'Clock in the Ferris hotel.
Not a quiet moment occurred from
the time the dignified Rotarians
found themselves transformed into
sheiks, cinnamon, bell-hops n
Happy Hooligans by the donning OF
paper hats until they settled down
for the principal number on the pro-
gram, the address CT Maj. A. G.
Crane, president Of the State Uni
yersity. The Rotary AIMS were also
provided with triumphs of the mil.
liners art, beautiful Easter hats OF
crepe paper, which set off the wear
ers' evening gowns to good ad-
vantage.
The tables extending along three
sides of the dining room were ar
ranged with pink and white carna-
tons in vases. and flower nut cups
marked each place. Bombs conceal
ed under the dishes made the eating
most exciting, and all varieties of
ear deafening inventions accom-
panied the menu and strengthened
the applause after each number.
An program, the hohui
work of A. A. Tobias, the jeweler
was at each place and contained the
exceptional and entertaining num-
bers for the evening.
II. Breitenstein, the president OF
the Rotary Club presided during tine
evening and announced the numbers
among which were solos by Prof
&c. A. Anderson and II. Breitenstein
which were unusually pleasing. 1
w. Dinsmore and II. ~Breitenstein
brought down the house with a
clever stunt in costume, containing
take-offs on most of the Rotarians
Selections by the famous Rotary
quartette were also enjoyed.
After this came the mastery ad-
dress by Maj. A. G. Crane OF the
State University. who is himself a
Rotarian. the title of which was
Rotarian Idealist. This was n OF
the most inspiring and helpful talks
the Rotarians have ever been priv
ileged to listen to.
The final minutes of the evening
were occupied with the election OF
officers and a board Of directors for
the following year. l.. f. Arm
was the choice for president,
for the next twelve months.
and he was installed as presiding

SANDERS MAKES GOOD HAUL

Three in One Sanders is the
new title won by the Carbon Coun-
ty Sheriff last Saturday afternoon.
Not that the famous little bottles
of oil enter into the case, for they
don't. but because OF n raid last
week which resulted in the capture
of three moonshine stills.
Last Saturday about 4 p. m. Sher-
iff Sanders, his deputies Mills. King
man and Poland and Special U. P.
Agent Kennel, loaded themselves in
to the Sheriff's a n paid a we'll
rewarded visit to a south end of the
city.
Mr.. Harry Hall, living in a house
rented from F. M. Bible, was the
first person. visited. Mr.. Hall, in
person. answered the Sheriff's sum-
mons to open the door. Not recog-
nizing the voice from without he
made the mistake of appearing with
a half pint of moonshine liquor on
his person. Seeing the array Of of
ficers at the door he then attempted
to destroy Exhibit A" by throwing
the bottle at a rock a short distance
off. His aim vas poor however and
the half pint was recovered in good
condition.
An investigation of the premises
occupied by Hall showed that there
was prepared for consumption
at least eight gallons of moonshint
A pitcher partly filled with the stuff
was also found. Further search dis
closed the fact that n still was rest
ing from recent labors in the cellar
of the house.
Hall plead guilty Monday to the
charge preferred by the officers ant
was bound over to the next term o
the district court. Being unable. a
the time. to furnish the bond neces
sary he was returned to the con
fines of the county Jail.
Two other stills were uncovered
the same afternoon by the searching
party in a two roomed house said tt
be occupied by some MeNicans. The
owners were not at home.
