MAY HOLD PICNIC NEXT YEAR IN WET MOUNTAIN VALLEY Dali De Weese has extended an In vitation to the Ohio Society of Fre mont county to hold its next annual picnic at the De Weese reservoir near Silver Cliff, in Custer county, on the second Thursday in June, or as near that date as possible. While no action in relation to the matter has been taken it is probable that the invitation will be accepted. It is proposed to charter a special train from the Denver & Rio Grande Rail road for the occasion and sell tiskets at $1 each for the round trip, which, it is believed would assure a large pa tronage. Such a trip would be a de lightful one in all respects and wcfcild afford, in addition to the magnificent mountain scenery, splendid boating and fishing. Mr. De Weese agrees, if It is decided to have the picnic at the reservoir, to prohibit all fishing there until rfter the picnic has taken place.

Atwater has at hla office, 720 Main street, a model of a new kind of rail for the use of traction and trans portation Companies, which has been offered to the Kansas-Colorado Power & Railroad company for use in the operation of its line from here to Oar den City, Kansas. The rail itself is similar in all res pects to the one so universally used but differes from it in the fact that the greater part of it is encased In a metallic jacket, which enables the joints to be made longitudinally in stead of square as is now the case. There are apparently many advant ages about such a rail, not the least important of which is the peculiar method of making the joints, which Is. really, a splice instead of the ordi pary joinure by means of hah plates. The doing away with the old system of joints at each end of the rail will obviate the jolt and jar. now experi enced in railroad trains and will min imize the danger of accident from loose rails. The shoe with which the rail is enclosed will also make it more rigid than would otherwise be the case and prevent its giving way as is sometimes done under the present system. The model will be taken to Pueblo by Mr. Atwater and exhibited at the directors’ meeting of the Kansas-Colo rado Power & Railroad company to morrow with a view of securing Its adoption. The device is the invention of Jas. H. Martin of Meno, Oklahoma, a form er resident of his city. It is protect ted by letters patent Issued by the government. January 9th. 1907. W. P. Aba i t of Lincoln Park is associated with Mr. Martin in the ownership of! the patent. It is said to be no more | expensive than the common steel rail, i FUNERAL SERVICE HELD AT 2 O’CLOCK TUESDAY The funeral of the late Mrs. Martha j Camp, who died at 1121 River street,, Thursday afternoon, the 11th Inst... of pneumonia, was held In the chapel j of the undertaking establishment of; Hawley A Son, 612 Main street, at 2:30 o’clock Tuesday afternoon.
