vari on the newly-weds at Ohio Creek
Ranger station. These newly-weds,
Mr, and Mrs. Ed Miller, who were mar
ried at the Minnesota Creek Ranger
station last week, reached here Tues
day following their week’s leisurely
honeymoon trip back from Paonia
via the McClure pass. When the
aforementioned party had come with
in a few hundred yards of the station,
the car in the lead developed engine
trouble, so they all piled out and soon
surrounded the house. Then the whis
per began to go round, “Say, what are
we to do?” And do you know, not a
soul in that bunch of twenty-five or
more had thought to bring one noise
machine! Not even a pop-gun! The
station was quite dark and quiet.
Someone suggested yelling and pound
ing on the door. A great commotion
was set up and before long Ed ap
peared, demanding to know if that
was the best they could do. However,
they were invited .in and royally
treated. Ed’s bachelor friends de
clared with heartfelt wails that the
raneer station was ruined now, and
loudly lamented the fact that it
would never again be the scene of
such an uproarious time as they had
spent there last deer season. Ed lis
tened —and grinned—no laments
there! The bride, formerly Miss Har
riet Thompson of the Forestry office
in Gunnison, is winning the friend
ship of all who meet her, by her
charming personality. At about mid
night, after wishing the newly mar
ried couple all happiness, health and
prosperity, this absent-minded chari
vari party departed for their homes.
Bad Fire In West Town
Gunnison Empire.
Tuesday night at 1:30 the house oc
cupied by Arthur Ho’ybee, and owned
by Geo. Jayne, was discovered to be
on fire. The fire seems to have origi
nated in the kitchen but exactly how
will never be detei mined. At the
time of discovery it had gained such
headway that no efforts could be suc
cessful in putting it out. The family
barely escaped and their entire be
’ongings wcr.» ccnsumed.
The fire boys weie compelled to re
turn to the hose house for every foot
of hose in the tov.n to the
blaze at all, there being no water
mains below the old C. & S. tracks.
The loss to the renter, Mr. Holybee,
is a serious one as he hns quite a fam
ily and is thus suddenly deprived of
everything. It will be some time be
fore he cen recoup his losses. He car
ried small insxirance.
