These figures for the season of 1919, to include July 31st, show that} a total of 31,060 people entered the park; and there is every indication! that this number will be doubled by the end of the season. This record! beats the heaviest previous record of park trave] for the same period, (27,- 527 in 1915) b a little over ten} per cent. Of this total, 9,564 came by rail, and practically all of the others in the private cars| which entered the park. ‘License tags are seen daily from nearly every state in the union and from Canada. | All Comforts of Home Many of these motorists bring their} own camping equipment, and others avail them s of the excellent ac-| commodations furnished at the hotels and permanent camps. . | Up to the past few days the season| has been extremely dry heavy tr: forest fires has been great. em of patrolling the roads for camp fires left burning, the regulat-| ing it ing of traffic and enforcement of other necessary regulations by ran- gers on motorcycles has proven very successful; and many small fires have been put out. In some cases a few acres have been burned over, but all fires have been stopped before they have become serious; and at no times have forest fires in the park interfered with travel, as they have | in some parts of the w In all cases where offenders were appre- hended they have been arrested, tried and fined for leaving fires burning. | Heavy rains have fallen during the past few days over the entire park New Yorkers Go North After a five-day trip in Yellowstone park and the proposed Greater Yel- lowstone extension in Jackson Hole, the Brooklyn Daily Eagle party, con- sisting of about 130 prominent Ne Yorkers, left Mammoth Hot Sprin in fifteen of the large park automo. biles, bound for Glacier park. Thi will follow the sers to Glaciers highway ds far as Helena, Mont., from which point they will travel by rail to Glacier National park. Complaints are few, considering the unprecedented travel which taxes the resources of all who serve the public; and many compliments are heard for the pains taken for the comfort of travelers. eee DEMENTED MAN TAKES LIFE DEADWOOD, §. D., 7.— , shot Charles Ormsby young and killed himself at the home of his parents at Elmore in Spearfish can- yon. His father, William Ormsby, is sec- tion foreman at that point for the Burlington. The young man was recently permitted to home from the state hospital at Yankton. His rash act was doubtless dition. OPEEDERS AGAIN IN LOCAL COURT: WAR To RENEWE? Absence of Tail Lights and Inabili- ty to Read License Number also Will Call for Fine, Say the Police Two speeders listed and other ar- rests expected to follow is the re- sult of a regular campaign by the police department to stop reckless speeding and joy riding in the city. H. L. Chamberlain was rushing out Center street at “35 miles an hour” when the police “got his number.” He paid a $5 fine for violation of the traffic ordinance on his own ac- cord to Judge W. E. Tubbs before the traffic officer could appear at court, police say. A Mr. Barker also was listed on the police blotter for, violation of the traffic ordinance and he paid the us- ual $5 fine. If motor car drivers think they are “getting away” with something by not burning tail lights on their cars, they are to be unpleasantly sur- prised by the police department. Last night one officer counted 12 cars, many of them Fords, without tail lights pass a main corner on Center street within 15 minutes. Warning to motorists that they are violating the state motor car regu- lations by not having a light burn- ing bright enough to see the motor and with the] license tag was given this morning at , the danger of starting | police headquarters. Many motor cars But the| have been reported as having dim lights burning if burning at all, mak- impossible to inguish the license number of a speeding motor car after dark. Warning was given today,and in a short time arrests may follow for this form of carelessness police headquarters indicated today. —_>- BODY FOUND IN WYOMING THAT OF PUEBLO MAN Wyo., Aug. 7.—The who had been shot thru the head, which was found near Gran-| lite canon, 18 miles west, is believed| evan Calde- ve been that of ron, 60, who left Pueblo, Colo., in April, to seek work. that he in stigate. ae LEAD WOMAN IS WRECK VICTIM \wite's wife, Mary Jane Yerdley, has always| DEADWOOD, S.
