be very small in that swimming will
only be good for about six weeks
more and it was also planned to per-
nit Hawaiian John to sell pop, can
dy and other things at the swim
ming pool. He will be given a COM
mission as a special police and will
be given full authority at the pool.
1t is only in this way that the lives
of the children can be guarded.
Mayor Meath, who attended the
meeting. stated hat he would see
that one of the three deep holes at
the swimming pool would be roped
off and danger signs placed at the
places where the bathers are not per-
mitted to swim. With the roping off
of one Of the three deep holes the
life guard will be able to take care
of the ones who are swimming in the
deep water of the other two holes.
1t is hoped that in the near future.
possibly next summer, some plan can
be devised whereby funds can be rails.
ed for the building of a concrete
swimming pool, probably near the
tourist camp ground in the north
east section Of the city. II such a
pool Is built it can be used for
swimming purposes IN the summer
and an ice skating pond in the win
ter. Rawlins is badly in need of a
swimming pool and it is hoped that
some activity will be seen this win
ter regarding the building of a pool.
1t is probable that some individual
may take up the matter in that II
would be a very paying proposition.
As one member stated. a mint is be-
ing overlooked by in not
putting in a swimming pool in this
city. Fol many years the main OBJ
lection against having n pool was
that there was not sufficient water in
the city. At the present time about
a million gallons of water are going
to waste daily. thus the shortage of
water can not be used as an excuse
for not having a pool. Other cities
that have recently built pools are
making lots OF money from the en-
terprise and II is hoped that in the
cry near future the city or some in
dividual will get going on the mat

GARAGE
ROBBED LAST
NIGHT OF $50

Sometime during the night a thief
or thieves entered the office of the
Johnston Motor company and took
about $50 in checks and currency
from a desk drawer. When employ
ees went to work this morning they
found tina entrance to the office had
being gained through the door lead
ing from the street into the office.
1t was also reported that the door
was jammed and the transom broken
in the rear of the II. Larsen Win
chester store but entrance was not
gained into that store. 1t is. thought
that the same party or parties tried
to get into the Larson store as rob
bed the Johnston Motor company.
AS near as can be checked up $50
is all that the robbers took. They
did not take any auto accessories
from the office. One of the checks
taken was made out on n first Ma
tional check blank to Mac Arnhold
for S25.12. The check had been
cashed and returned to the garage.
Another check was made out on a
Rawlins National bank check paya-
BILE to cash for $500 and had been
endorsed by c. A. Anderson. Sew.
eral old checks which were no good
but were being kept in the desk
drawer were also taken. One of
them was on the Parco bank and
was signed by Walter Mccall while
another one was signed by William
Aguilar. a $50 check on the Parco
bank; n SEQ check on the Parco
bank signed by +. l.. Long and an
other n for si7.20 signed by John
Robertson.
About $500 in postage stamps
were taken and the only other article
that Is found to be missing is c. A.
Anderson's notary seal.
No windows or doors in the gar
age were broken. thus II is believed
that the robbers went through the
door from the street lNding into the
office of the garage. The night latch
was sprung but 1t Is necessary to
give the door n pull before the catch
takes a hold. The door was found
in that condition this morning when
The employees went to work. that Il
the latch had been snapped but the
catch had not taken a hold.

SCOUTS, put the street bOy was drown
ed before he could be taken out of
the water. The funeral services were
held from the Presbyterian church on
afternoon and interment was
made in the Rawlins cemetery. The
funeral arrangements were under
the direction OF the Rasmussen I'm
~dertaking Parlors.
Although the reports by eye wit
nesses vary to a more or less degree,
due to the excitement and number
of persons who were at the pool that
afternoon, the story as it has been
reported is that on Sunday afternoon
well over 100 residents, among which
was a large number of children and
several grown-ups, were swimming
and many of them were sitting
on the banks when the accident oc-
CURED. In that there is always a
loud noise and many persons yelling
the seriousness of the incident was
not realized by many of the SWIM
mers until two or three minutes af-
ter the boys had gone into the water.
The four boys. William Travis,
Newton Hendrickson. Charles Bern
ECKER and Frank Street, were on the
raft and they were in water about
eight or nine feet deep when sever
al other persons swan to the raft
n took a hold on one end of 1t.
When a couple of them started to
get on the raft the end was submerg-
ed and the fou boys went into the
water. Travis was the only one of
the four who could swim. He got
on the raft in a few seconds and pull
ed Hendrickson and Bernicker on to
the planks. The stories on Tbs Street
boy differ in that many of the wit
nesses say hat he never came up
out of the water after once going
in while Others say that he came up
one. two and three times.
As soon as It was realized that he
was drowning a. G. Allison. Jesse
Osborne and several others began
diving for him. The accident hap
pened at 2:07 and Mt 2:14 Osborne
came up and reported hat he thought
he had touched the body with his
foot. The mex time down he found
the youth and brought him to the
top of the water and several who
were there pulled him on to the raft
and he was taken to the shore.
\ doctor was called from Rawlins
and several OF the persons on the
grounds worked for almost an hour
Trying 10 bring the boy to. When IL
was decided that he vas drowned
the hearse from Rasmusson's was
called and the lad was taken to the
undertaking parlors.
Several persons gave the opinion
that fright and heart failure caused
Frank Streets death, but IL is be-

DALE SPEAKER
in NORTH STAR
HALL MONDAY

General Organizer j. B. Dale of
the American Federation of Labor.
who has been visiting Wyoming for
the past couple OF weeks and has
been delivering addresses in several
of the cities of the state, spoke be-
fore a fair sized audience at the
North Star hall on Monday evening
of this week. John McNees of this
city, president of the Carbon County
Central Labor body and A. p. Barton.
secretary of the same organization,
were also present at the meeting.
However, Dale was the only speaker
on the program.
Mr.. Dale. who for many years has
been associated with trade union ac-
tivities in California and other parts
of the country, talked for two hours
here on Monday evening and he had
many important messages to give TO
the assembled members. Although
lie spoke for two hours, the time was
taken up in a very profitable man
ner and his talk seemed only a short
while. Mr.. Dale is n fluent speaker
and more persons should have avail
ed themselves of the chance to near
his address. He left Rawlins on
Monday evening for points west with
a large number of friends who hope
for his return at some future date.
Mr.. Dale addressed the locals in
Rock Springs, Superior and Reliance
and visited in Cheyenne, Casper, Salt
Creek oil fields, Laramie and Raw
Inns. His talk in this city in which
he discussed the welfare of the I'M
ions and the public has produced a
better understanding of labor's pro-
ran and of the substantial basis
on which the American Federation
of Labor is built.

RAWLINS WILL PROBABLY
HAVE RODEO THIS YEAR
Meeting Of RODEO Committee WILL Be Held TO-
night. EXPECTED that SHOW Will Be Open
To WORLD CONTESTANTS ON same BASIS

AT the Chamber of Commerce meeting held in the office room
of the Chamber on Monday evening the matter of holding a
rodeo in this city was talked over and a report from the old
rodeo committee was heard. Upon the suggestion of the old
committee a new one was appointed and that committee will
hold a meeting this evening for the purpose of absolutely de
Gliding whether or not Rawlins will hold a rodeo and if SO a
date will be set. The new committee composed of Archer Lap
ham, chairman, Robert Ehlers and Jack Martinez will probably
, 1925-07-16

select two or three other members to
work on the committee.
There is very little doubt but what
a rodeo will be held in this city, for
all realize that it is a big advertise
ment for Rawlins. 1t is also believed
that the show will be open to the
world, that is. all contests will be on
the same basis. If such men as
Charles Irwin wish to bring their
shows to Rawlins and compete on the
same basis as other contestants, they
will be welcome to Rawlins' rodeo.
There has been some difference of
opinion among the members of the
Chamber of Commerce as to wheth-
err 1t would be advisable to have a
county show or n such as has been
given In the past few years. 1t is
realized that the Sweetwater rodeo
is equal to any in the west for buck
ing horses. steer roping, ETC., as is
the talent in this section of the
country. Also the Platte and Snake
River valleys harbor exceptional tai
ent and animals and some of the
chamber members are of the opinion
that a county show should be given.
However, it is believed that the COM
mittee this evening will decide on an
opCh-tO-thC- shoW anu III buCh
a case the men from the different
sections of the country will have as
good a chance for prize money as any
one else in the show. 1t Is believed
nat no money guarantees will be
given. thus II may be that Irwin will
not enter his contestants In the show.
The old rodeo committee unani-
mously endorsed the staging OF a
similar celebration as has been held
in the years 19~22-23-24. that is. an
"Open-to-the-W World Rodeo. with such
outside help and talent as has usu-
ally been employed in the past. In
estimating the cost OF such a show
the committee stated hat they
would estimate the cost in the neigh
borhood of $4,000. Last year the
gate receipts were $500 and all
other receipts including donations
were In the neighborhood of $1,000.
The deficit of $500 was due princi-
pnlly to expenditures on the fair
grou ads. This year the committee
estimated the gross income at S.
500 and the expenses $4,000. leaving
an mou OF about $500 to be
raised from sources other thai the
Rodeo show.

Perform Remarkable Oper-

BY international News Service.

CHICAGO, Jan. Q. - Although
your heart stops functioning, you
may still livei
At least this is true in the case
of Max Peck. Surgeons at the
County Hospital here cut open his
chest, took his heart in their hands,
used pressure enough to force a
homemade bullet from the organ,
stopped its beating for q few mo-
ments and then restored it to its
place.
Peck may recover and once again
be Just as sound as though he had
never attempted to commit suicide
on Christmas Eve in q cheap lodg-
ing house.
When the terrible loneliness that
overwhelms man utterly alone in
a cheap lodging house on Christ
mas Eve came to Peck he had no
weapons. But to man determined
to end it all that is no hindrance.
A piece OF lead pipe was secured.
as well as some black powder. And
Peck had spike for bullet. The
homemade cannon was placed on
q. table and set off with not wire.
When Peck awoke he found himself
in the hospital, lowering between
life and death.
Surgeons at the hospital cOun-
seled an operation. Apparently it
has turned out q success.
