Ushered Out
of Business
The Chicago Creek resort is no
more. Judge Whiting and Marshall
O'Rourke put a quietus to the reign
last Monday.
Ed Corbett, who has been making
his home up there for the last four
months, was sentenced to six months
in the county jail. Mrs. Greye, the
landlady, was fined SSO and costs;
Myrtle Burdette, an inmate, was fined
$25 and costs, and Hazel Wood es
caped by promising to leave the city.
All three of the women left Tuesday
morning with the promise that they
would not return. Corbett is serving
out the sentence imposed.
Tlyere was lively doings at the Chi
cago Creek resort last Saturday after
noon. People for a distance of half
a mile each way witnessed the dis
graceful proceedings, and the in
mates carried on in such a manner
that it became necessary for the land
lady, Mrs. Greye, to send for Marshal
O’Rourke and Night Watchman Libby.
Mrs. Greye and her two daughters,
Myrtle and Hazel, are the occupants
of this resort. They have been there
for the last eight months and during
that time there has been any amount
of complaint as to the manner in
which operations were carried on. On
one occasion the city council voted
unanimously that this%lace must be
closed, but the occupants only lent a
deaf ear to the demand.
The trouble started about 5:30 in
the afternoon. Miss Myrtle and her
lover, Ed Corbett, a young fellow who
is better known as Young Corbett,
had been to the city, and when they
returned they were loaded down with
firewater. Both carried a glorious
jag, and at the same time a dignified
one. They were not in condition to
allow anyone to make fun of them,
and as for being reprimanded, why
that was simply out of the question.
No sooner had they arrived at the
premises than the mother proceeded
to upbraid her daughter for her fool
ish actions. She ordered Young Cor
bett to leave the premises and never
return. Then the trouble started
proper. Myrtle seized her mother and
proceeded to hand her a few upper
cuts. Hazel tried to protect the
mother and Young Corbett seized a
chair and made for the scene of com
bat. He landed his weapon across the
face of Mrs. Greye, with the result that
her face was cut under the eye and
across the nose. By this time Hazel
waa bombarding Young Corbett, and
Myrtle went to the assistance of her
lover. She grabbed Hazel by the hair
of the head and dragged her outside
A YOUNG LADY'S LIFE SAVED.
At Panama, Colombia, by Chamberlain's
Colic. Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy.
Dr. Chas. H. Utter, a prominent phy
sician of Panama, Colombia, in a recent
letter states: “Last March I bad as a
patient a young lady 16 years of age,
who had a very bad attack of dysentery.
Everything I prescribed for her proved
ineffectual and she was growing worse
every hour. Her parents were sure she
would die. She had become so weak
that she could not turn over in bed.
What to do at this critical moment was a
study for me, but I thought of Chamber
lain’s Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea
Remedy and as a last resort prescribed it.
The most wonderful result was effected.
Within eight hours she was feeling much
better; inside of three days she was upon
her feet and at the end of one week was
entirely well.” For sale by J.J, Sherwin.
New Train to Texas.
On July ist the Colorado and Southern
Railway made further improvements in
their service between Colorado and
Texas by putting on another daily fast
train, carrying standard Pullman sleepers,
cafe cars and first-class coaches between
Denver and Fort Worth; also Pullman
sleeper between Denver and Memphis,
Tenn., via Amarillo and the Choctaw,
Oklahoma & Gulf Ry., offering the only
service between Colorado and the Okla
homa and Indian Territories without
change of cars.

the house. There it was that Hazel
set up an unearthly howl, and some
passers-by at once came to the city
and notified the authorities.
When Marshal O’Rourke reached
the seat of war things had quieted
down somewhat, but the smoke of bat
tle had not entirely disappeared. Cor
bett was walking around as proud as
a peacock, and declared that he was
the master of the situation. It did
not take him long to learn otherwise,
because the marshal took a hand and
when the finale came Corbett and
Myrtle were in the city jail. There
they remained until Monday morning
when they were taken before Magis
trate Whiting.
Siftings has called the attention of
the city authorities to the disgraceful
actions of the denizens of this joint
so often that it appears to be a waste
of words to say anything further.
Every resident of this city knows that
the law is being violated, and ninety
nine per cent, of these residents are
willing and anxious that the law
should be invoked 1n a stern manner
to rid the community of this disgrace
ful resort. Across the road from
where this house of ill-repute stands
is the sacred resting ground where
the dead are buried. Many of these
citizens have friends and relatives
who are buried there, and it is a
shame that this joint has not long ago
been compelled to close its doors. Lit
tle children,' just growing into woman
hood, are compelled to pass this place
and the actions of the members of the
shack would cause gray-haired people
to blush with shame. It was only a
ew days ago that two little girls, not
jver twelve years of age, were seen
peeping in at the windows at the
louse. They had seen the girls run
ning around the premises and were
luite naturally curious as to what the
nside looked like.
It is stated that Mrs. Greye does
lot own the ground upon which the
■abin stands and that the owner noti
led her that he would not tolerate the
nuisance.
No one questioned the assertion that
the Chicago Creek joint was a house
of ill-repute. The only question was
how could it be proven. No one vol
unteered to give testimony Regarding
the same and thus the city marshal
and city attorney were hampered.
But after the disgraceful proceed
ings which were carried on last Sat
urday afternoon the good citizens of
this community demanded that the
place be forever closed, and that at
once.
