The colorado uuntress Dead.

The Denver Times of Thursday
contains special dispatch from
Boulder stating that Mrs. Maxwell
died at Rockaway Beach, Long Island
on Wednesday morning. The Times
SAYS: All old residents Of Colorado
will remember Mrs. Maxwell and her
museum of Colorado birds and ami
mails, nearly all of which were killed
by herself. Her home for some years
was In Boulder. from hich she made
her forays into the mountains. Dug
ing the centennial she took her col
lection there. where it became one OF
the principal attractions, but sos
more SO than herself When II became
known that she was the hHBtress.
Many, indeed. could not be. brought
to believe that the pleasant l'ftic lady
could really have performed such
work.

[ The Host Disastrous Fire Ever Visited
Upon Canon City:

Last Monday morning about three
O'Clock, the startling cry of fire was
sounded in the streets and those citi-
zens who were awakened by it were
not long in discovering that the first
soft gray of daylight WAS mingled
with fierce flames of fire entirely COW
eriBg the roof of Mr.. L. Il. Joefs
building on B street, nearly opposite
first discovery was made by the bus
boys, as they were coming back from
their regular trip to the morning ex-
press, As soon as possible they gave
the alarm but as there was no bell
sounded to call out the fire company
the few boys who were awakened
had some difficulty in getting the
hose cart to the hydrant on the COR
ncr of and Fifth streets. After the
hose had been attached there was
scarcely enough water pressure to
throw o stream through the fTo
hundred feet of hose. BY the time
the pressure was up TO a sufficient
point to throw water into the flames
the house was mass of fire and all
that could be dope was to keep the
blaze in bounds. I'm about one hour
the fire was subdued but the house
was in ruins. 1t has not been occu-
pied since the removal of MIR. Hart
wells family some four. weeks ago
and their household goods had been
removed from it but a few days. Tt
was not insured and the loss is esti-
mated at about 81 900. /The reason it
was vacant is said to be because it
was not Supplied with water from
the water works. There has been
good deal said about the water pres
sure, which was scarcely higfenough
TO carry a stream through the end of
the hose. This is very easily ex-
planned by the simple statement that
certain people in this town, who havo
hydrants in their yards. have been In
the habit of violating their contract
with the water company by turning
the water on to their grass or gardens
after dark and permitting it to run
ali night. This draws all the reserve

for the very purpose it is put their.
for fire. Every evening at o'clock
the reservoir is filled and enough wa
ter is then in it to supply the fire
pressure for at least thirty minutes.
or until the pumps can be started.
This habit of taking water after dark
for irrigation is very poor policy and
should cease at once. The water COM
pany is perfectly willing to supply ali
the water any citizen asks for but they
do not propose to supply it for noth-
ing. Every person who buys water
for sprinkling makes a contract to
use it six hours day, three hours in
the morning and three hours in tho
evening. Great care should be taken
to keen our reserve water up to it's
highest point. There is scarcely d
doubt that this fire on Monday morn
ing was the work of an incendiary.
No fire had been in the house for sew
eral weeks, and it is said that tramps
had been in the habit of getting in
through the windows and sleeping
there. There are a lot of scamps iy-
ing around the city who need con-
stant watching and some time they
will be caught in an act OF nature
for which the Slow majesty of the
law will have no opportunity to metc
out the proper punishment.

Unhappy Chilli.

Chilian represep tatives in Europe to the
financial schemes Of a speculative Eng

the expense. alike of Peru and Chill and

Chilli has been brought to her present

1t is quite clear, we are glad to say, that
the administration Of Arthur does not
intend to permit Chill TO be successfully
used as cover for English greed on the
west coast Of South America. It may
be awkward for Chill to withdraw grace
fully from the position she has taken up,
but Chill certainly cannot be allowed to
hold these positions, and it would be
much more awkward to abandon them

FOIger and Silver.

Washington, Ut Is believed that
Secretary Folger will deal plainly and
directly in his report with the silver
question. 1t is tsid he is in cordial
agreement with the views of the director
of the mint, as to the bad results certain
to follow the continuance Of the present
rate Of coinage of standard dollars. There
appearing to be little ground for hoping
for any International agreement respect
ing the coinage OF silver at 9 fixed rate,
the secretary does not consider it profts-
bic or safe to longer continue the effort
to depreciate the value Of silver. 1t is
thought by stopping the coinage in this
country, we may compel other govern
ments to come to some understanding.

THE BILLS.
GarfieId's Deathbed Expenses.

New York, "A Washington special
says: One Of the first things that will be
brought Up in Congress is the settlement
Of the bills incident to the late Presi-
dents illness. General Garfeld's friends
mission to sudit all bills, and make 8
statement to the secretary Of the treasury,
whom they will ask to be given power to
pay the amount from any money in the
treasury not otherwise appropriated. II
is thought IN this way the matter may be
fixed up quietly without sny undigniied
squabbling in Congress oyer the amount
of money needed. The physicians have
been asked by financial agent of Mrs.
Garfield. to send in their bills, but they
have refused to do go. Dr. Bliss said he
would not think OF taking any
thing from Mrs. Garfield. DR..
Agnew has figured mp the direc:
loss 20 him through his connection with
the case, and it amounts, it is reported, to
$4,000. Bliss loss Of practice, and the
expenses incidental to his devotion 10 the
President amounts to some $4,000. This
shows nothing for the constant service,
anxiety and labor, as nurse and physi-
clan, night d day, for the long weeks
of the Presidents Illness. Agnew and
hamilton did not give all their time to
the case or their loss would have been
much greater, but DR.. Bliss surrendered
his entire practice of necessity. Drs.
Agnew, Hamilton and Bliss, it is ex-
pscted. will consider S25,C00 apeace
about fair compensation for there WORK.
Drs. Barnes and Woodward are officers
of vernment, so that they suffered no
pecuniary loss from their attendance in
the case. The physicians hope that the
matter will be settled before the holidays
and General Gar6eld's friends desire this
settled before the eulogies are pro-
nounced.

The ..Thunderer" On Tariffs

London, 2.-The Times, in an edito-
rial article discussing the tariff conven-
ton held il New York, says the tariff
may be raised, but it is not likely that
sweeping changes will be introduced
while the present extraordinary prosper
ity in America is maintained. It is up-
wise for those English manufacturers
who have been hoping to see the market
long closed to them reopened. to deceive
themselves with expectations of any
speedy movement towards free transit to
America. Some day the Americans will
recognize the tutility Of battering against
economic rules. and will perceive the
waste of national energy which protec-
ton involves, but at present free traders
are lukewarm, while protectionists are
active, esger and united.
