Building Active In
Cheyenne Wells
A little strole around our pro
gressive little city the first of
the week revealed very much
activity in the building lines,
both in business houses and resi
dences.
The first we come to is the new
garage building of the Harris
Motor company, joining us on
the west This building is a brick
structure, seventy-five feet by
one hundred and ninety and when
completed will be one of the
finest buildings of its kind be
tween Denver and Kansas City.
Around the corner on Railroad
avenue, we found the new eleva
tor of the Weir Grain company,
of Denver, progressing nicely.
This building now stands about
forty feet high and still going
up. Contractor Borton, informs
us that he would not be a bit
surprised if this company did not
erect another elevator by its side
as goon as this one is finished.
Moral: '"his is the coming wheat
country of this state and rinse
grain dealers are wise to the fact
Our next move was to the new
up to date hotel building now be
ing erected by Harry leming.
Here we found the carpenters
completing the rough work on
the building This building we
presume will be stucco finish as
the appearance shows The
plumbers were busily * ngagei
in making the heating and sewe
connections before the closing of
the walls. In the completion ol
this building Cheyenne Wells
need never woiry about the com
fort of her visitors in the future
Over on Mclarne and Kelly
streets we found the new Catho
lic High School about completed
This building is being erecteo
out of concrete blocks and is a
very neat appearing building.
The outside work has about
finished and the carpenters were
busy putting in the partitions.
Lathing and plastering was the
order of business upon our visit
to this institution this da\ Tins
also is a mighty nice building
On our return homeward we
took a peep at the cute little
bun"aio Professor Giav lt is hav
ing built on McLant street This
will indeed make a nice tittle
home and we are laying awas>
nights trying to figure out some
scheme whereby we could call it
our own.
Looking out at the east end of
Fenner avenue we can see the
new home of J H. Rahe progres
sing nicely. This home is being
built of concrete blocks and will
be a dandy also.
Old Timer Here
C. W. Ravin, another old tinier |
of this county who has a home
stead north and east of Arapahoe, i
but now claims Chicago as bis
stomping grounds, Was an ar

warm spot in hisjmart for Chey- 1
enne county and'eays that if

days here visiting among d
time friends, making a few tew
ones and attending to some bu t
ness matters.
The Chevenne Cowboy Band,
on their way to Oakley, Kansas, \
stopped i ff here Friday evening j
between trains. Learning Hint I
the Ladies Aid wer having a!
little Hallowe’en party at the hall
the “Cowboys” made their way
to the party where they too took
a hand in the performance and
rendered several of their snappy
selections. The Aid of course,
appreciated their kindness. i
Wet Goods Merchant
Grabbed By Law
The latter part of last week a
man by the name of R. W. Inale,
who baa been holding out on a
farm north of Arena, got <n bad
with the strong arm of the law
when he pulled into a garage up
at Burlington with a keg that
contained five gallons of “white
mule” in his car. People wi o
are making a practice of de tling
in these wet goods had best be
.in their guard —cut it out, as
they are sure to be pinched and
things will not go as easy aa
i hey may wish it for them.
