ultimate forest that will stand until

to treat white pine as the final step In

Bank Building is an
Asset to Community

Modern, secure and permanent is
to be the new home of the First
National Bank. 1t will be a monu-
ment to our thriving city. In the
construction of the building the SER
vices of an able and experienced
architect, John ]. Hubbard of Dem
yer, were secured and he was given
instructions to design a building
embodying the latest ideas of bank
ing arrangements and conveniences
to build it fi%reproof and to build
it strong.
The new building with its entire
equipment Including modern vaults
will be one of the finest in this
vicinity, IL not in our state, having
all the conveniences Of the larger
banks in the country-yet not over
done.
A predominant feature in the
new building and a most interesting
one will be its massive vaults of
steel and concrete.
There has ben constructed within
this building two vaults, both of the
same thickness and. construction;
one for the protection of the banks
own funds and the other for the
protection of the valuables of its
customers. Another vault built into
the basement is for the storage of
old records and documents.
The customers vault will be
known as THE Safe Deposit Vault"
and will be one of the pest of its
kind in the state and will be most
pretentious. The contents of this
vault will be protected by IS inches
of reinforced concrete with railroad
rails so fabricated as to make a
steel Gag imbedded in the walls of
the concrete. The entrance way is
to be protected by massive steel
vault doors having incorporated in
their construction metals resisting
both the drill and the ~oxy-acetylene
torch. These doors when closed
will be locked by 20 heavy steel
bolts controlled by two combination
locks, and when opened will be
protected by a grille gate locked by
q strong key lock, having alarm
bell attachment SO as to give notice
Of entrance into the vault.
Within this vault is to be located
an assortment of safe deposit boxes
largo enough to accommodate the
v~aluables OF the customers of the
bank, to which access may be had
every business day in the year. Each
o Is equipped with a lock reQuir-
ing two keys; n being in the
possession OF the bank n the other
in the possession OF the renter,
neither, however. being able to gain
access to the box without the service
of both keys.
The Mosler Safe Company of
Hamilton. Ohio. having in charge
the building OF the vault doors. is
recognized as the largest manufac-
turer OF safes and vaults in the
world today. They have installed

SAD VISIT OF
FATHER 70 SON

In response to letter from his son,
written on the stationery of Sheriff
Winters, and requesting that letters be
sent in care of the sheriff, A. II. Dill
of Oklahoma City arrived in Glenwood
Monday morning to visit his son, Har-
ry Dill and was given an unhappy
surprise when he introduced himself
to Undersheriff Rater and made n
quiry about his son and was answered
by the officer, "Just sit down a min.
ute and I'll let him out to talk to
you.'' This was the first intimation
that had come to Mr.. Dill that his son
was in prison, and he W overcome
by the unwelcome news.
Harry Dill, Duncan Robb and Floyd
Thomas, three youthful travellers
across the country via the hobo route,
were arrested in Eagle county, charged
with breaking into the Stremme store
and the postoffice at Gypsum, and
after they had signed written state.
ment admitting their guilt they were
brought to Glenwood and placed in the
county Jail to await the convenience
of the court in the matter of sentence
The three young men were taken to
Eagle yesterday morning to receive
their sentence, Mr.. Dill accompanying
his son to that point. Mr.. Dill says
his son was injured in football game
several years ago, since which time he
has been in poor health, and he was
travelling over the country in the hope
that the outdoor exercise and the cli-
matte change might result in improve

FOR USING GUN
and MAKING THREATS

Last Friday, in Justice Hearings
court, Lawrence NJ. Hall of the Sweet
water country was found guilty of
carrying concealed weapons, and also
of making threats against the life of
Vim. D. Wilson, an cmploye of the
Callen ranch on Divide creek.
The testimony was sordid in the ex-
tIeme and smacked of the underworld
from start to finish. Wilson and his
wife lived on q ranch in the Sweet
water country, and Hall had worked
for some of the people in that section
and had worked few days for Viii.
son. Wilson came down to Garfield
county and Hall did the feeding on
the Wilson ranch for time and then
moved with Mrs. Wilson to a ranch
on which she had filed, and fed her
stock, the two living in two-room
cabin on this ranch.
Later they came horseback and by
pack outfit to Garfield county and
pitched their tent at South Canon
where Hall secured work at sheep
camp.
Wilson rode past the camp and
thought he recognized one of his
horses. He went over to the camp to
make sure, and engaged in a conver-
sation with his wife whom he had not
seen for some time. Evidently Halls
Jealousy was aroused, for he approach

with them. She also identified let
ter she had written to Wilson, along
the same line of her testimony.
The testimony of both Mr.. and Mrs.
Wilson was to the effect that Hall
had lain in wait with a gun for an
other party in the Sweetwater country,
and that he made several threats
against the party.
Sheriff Winters told Of placing Hall
under arrest, after the latter made an
attempt to draw his gun, and also low

CLASH BETWEEN CITY
and CONTRACTORS

At the meeting of the city council
Monday evening there was considera-
BILE controversy over the bill presented
by the White & Johnson Construction
company, contractors on the water
works system, the company having
billed the city almost $4,000 in excess
of what tie work amounts to under
their contract at yardage rates.
This excess was claimed by the con-
tractors on account of the bad ground
encountered IN the tunnel some time
age, By which slow progress was made
at greatly increased cost. The city
refused to pay the additional amount,
and there is trouble in the offing.
The only other feature out of the
ordinary in connection with the meet
ing was a petition, very generously
signed, asking that there be greater
Sunday observance in the future. The
aldermen say the petition was indefi-
mite and did not make plain the real
object to be obtained, but it is pre-
sumed that the petition grew out Of
the recent wild exhibitions in connec-
tion with the Strawberry day celebra.
tion. The petition was filed, but no
action was taken on the same at this
time.

leaks and sinks apeared in the streets
of the city, the trouble spreading to
adjacent residences, Mr.. Taylor's resi-.
dence perhaps sustaining the most So
rious injury. In 1916 Mr.. Taylor
sought settlement with the city and
the company, but with no success, and
finally he was obliged to bring suit
for damages.
The city and company maintained
that Taylor's damage was not as
heavy as he alleged, and Furthermore
that he could not prove that the de-
PENDANTS were responsible for NOR
should be held financially responsible
for the damage his property had sus-
tanned.
Through an agreement Of the par
ties, workmen dug down to the pipe
and found the same broken and tho
water flowing slowly underground in
the direction of Taylor's basement.
The building settled out of plumb, the
basement was ruined, doors and win
COWS could be opened only with diff
Guilty, and the ground in the vicinity
settled to such an extent that more
than 200 loads of dirt were required
to fill up the depression.
Mr.. Taylor and the witnesses who
testified in his behalf feel that the
Judgment is not sufficient to recon-
pense him for the loss he has sustained,
and furthermore the taxpayers of
Glenwood feel that the company, and
not the city, should be held response
bile for this judgment, as by the con-
tract between the company and the
city the latter was to be saved harm
less for any damages resulting from
the company's service system.

Perhaps the most plausible theory
thus far advanced is that Mary was
accompanied in her search for the
cows by one Of the other children of
the family who had revolver which
was discharged with the fatal result,
although this theory is thus far denied
by the family.
However, the neighbors say the An.
dreatti children are habitually play
ing with firearms and that they nave
often been accused Of shooting into
punches of range cattle, just for sport.
Mr.. Andreatti and the eldest boy
were in Glenwood at the time the fasal
shooting occurred. Sheriff Winters
was summoned by phone from the Lee
ranch about 10 p. m. and hurried to
the scene, to find that the body of the
girl had been carried to the house by
members of the family, who said they
left the child's cap on the trail to
mark the place where she was found.
Mr.. Winters carried the little body
out on his back and by horse over the
almost impossible trail, and brought it
to Glenwood. search revealed the
bullet just under the skin below the
shoulder blade.
Sheriff Winters and Deputy Coroner
Burdge have now gone to the scene
OF the tragedy to search for tracks and
to gather all the evidence possible that
will aid in solving the mysterious af
fair. 1t is possible that Coroner Clark
will hold an inquest over the remains
some time Friday afternoon.
