Way Tliis Year.
Helix, June 3. Considerable inter
est was taken in the election which
was held here Monday. The question

celebrated before. Considerable in
terest Is being taken In the matter,
and committees have already been ap
pointed to arrange the program, etc.
So far the wheat crop In the Helix

Tht Ticket That Cam Back.
A prominent railway man tells of a
railway ticket that took a sudden Jour
ney on its own account It appeajg
that as a northbound train on the Colo
rado and Southern road passed one of
the stations a passenger in a forward
car raised a window, and In an In
stant his ticket was blown from his
hands. The passenger naturally gave
It up for lost and was much surprised
when the bnggagemaater banded It to
him a little while later. It appears
that when tbe ticket flew through the
window a southbound train was pass
ing. The suction ofv that train, which
was moving at a rapid rate, drew the
ticket along with It, and as It passed
the rear end of the northbound train It
blew Into the door of tbe smoking car.
There It was found by the-baggage-master.
