It came up to about two feet of where the recent high reached its highest. Both approaches to the bridge south of Cimarron were covered with water Wednesday evening. South of the bridge.where the road had washed out so badly, the river agin did damage, altho not as much as before. The county had men working on the road for the past ten days. It will probably several days again before the roads are in good shape again, altho they will be made passable immediately.

Heavy rains in the Colorado valley west of here are the cause of the river's rapid rise. The damns formerly In use in Colorado were washed out in the recent high water, so that each heavy rain swells the river here. The river hud gone down considerably by Thursday noon, as we go to Press. Tax Inspector Trips up Local Stores Mr. Albright, internal revenue inspector for this district was in town Wednesday looking after the paying of the "war tax" on soda fountain drinks, base ball games, picture shows, and any thing tlse to which an admission is charged.

The Sam Good family Is quarantined with small pox. R. Sherwood returned Tuesday from Denver, Colorado, where he took his family, who have been back in Illinois visiting relatives.

Olodine Parshall, the 15 year old daughter of Mr and Mis D. C. Par-shali, who was accidentally shot in the neck a week ago Saturday with a 22 cal.bre rifle, is improving nicely. The accident happened with her brother and herself at home, and is explained by her in the following letter to the Jacksonian Dear Sir: We thought you would like to have Olodine's version of her accident. After we left for town Saturday afternoon, Harry went out to fceil the calves.

Being left alone, Olodne felt nervous and put a cartridge in the little rifle. She then went to the front door ho ing to see a rabbit to shoot. Returning to the k.tchen, she nsked Harry as he came in the back door if he hud seen any rabbits out that wry. They were talking together when Olodine thoup.t she snv a shndow, the wind.) She turned.
