Now that the Panama Canal scheme has
fallen through, the work has already com.
msnced for uniting the Atlantic and Pacific
oceans by means of lock canal across the

the Nicaragua route, it is said, possesses bet
TER advantages and fewer difficulties than any
other route thus far shown to be practicable.
1t will take an immense amount of money
and Ave years Of time TO complete this canal,
but whea flushed in 1894, the shipping that
viii pass through this canal, will amount to

From Hotchkiss.


The recent decree of the district court, fix.
ipg the status ofthe different bitches of this
water district and the amonnt of water EACH
ditch Is entitled TO. is received with the most
profound disappointment by the people of this
section,
They feel that a great and glaring injustice
has been done them, and that for few paltty
dollars they have been defrauded Of their just
rights,-rights to which they were entitled by
every consideration of law and equity. The
victimized parties will, either ask fora re-
argument and review by the district court, as
provided by statute, or appeal direct to the
Supreme court. Probably the latter course
will be taken.
"Where will the bridge be located" is n
question in which our people are much inter
ested.
The people of Delta very naturally want 1t
as near their town as possible, while the peo-
pie of the North Fork are equally spxious to
have it MS near the canon as possible. Both
sectiops are actuated by purely selfish mo-
tives.
It seems to me the main question to be con-
sidered is, not which section will be most
benefited by the location, but which will be Of
the most benefit to the whole county.
Should it be located down the Gunnison no
doubt the Montrose bridge would be built near
the mouth of the North Fork. This would, in
effect, place Chinese wall betyeen the east
and west end ofthe county. Twoyea hence,
Montrose county will be entitled to the menu
ber of the Legislature from this district, and
with little effort on his part the location of
appropriation will hold good until then.
While this would be benefit to one section,
it would be equally disastrous to the other.
These things should be taken into considera-
tion when the 6nal site is selected.
Just now lively row is in progress over
the Hotoi kiss post Office. Three candidates

the FUTURE.
Our community has just been startled out
of its usual serenity by the sudden death Of
james. .Ainsworth, of Rogers Mesa. The cause
of his death is at present n mystery.
1t resulted from an ovesdose of Iaudanum,
but whether taken by accident, or design
cannot be asccrtained. From present indiea-
tions it would seem that his brain was tenn
porarily affected, caused by accident in the
mines. He was buried on the 29th ult.
The writer knew him for many years, knew
him as an honorable upright man univer.
ally respected for his sterling character. He
served through the war in the 3rd Illinois
cavalry. At his request he was buried in
his uniform and was lowered to mis- rest by
the strong arms ofold comrades. He leaves
q sorrowing wife, but no children. Rest in
peace, conrade, until called by the Great
Con.mandcr to the last grand review.

THE HOUSEHOLD.
Cheap Food.

1t is q false economy that induces peo-
pie to use cheap butter, cheap meat,
cheap -four, and other cheap articles of
food. In nine cases out of ten, cheap
articles of food IRE either damaged or
adulterated, and are dear at any price.
They are seldom what they purport to
be, and if not really dangerous to use,
generally prove unsatisfactory to the
purchaser or consumer. Of all cheap
things, cheap articles Of food should be
most carefully avoided. Bread that is
heavy or sour has passed the bounds of
redemption. Butter that has become
rancid cannot be regenerated by the adj
dition of coloring. Meats that are
tainted can by no chemical process be
restored to their original condition, and
the secret of infusing freshness into
stale vegetables and decayed fruits re-
mains undiscovered. To use low priced
stuff for food is not only extravagant
and foolish, but criminal. It is a
fragrant violation of the laws of physj-
ology and hygiene, and reckless de-
fiance of disease and death. Beware of
low-priced articles of food. = The
Kitchen.

That cranberry jelly mixed with cold
water makes refreshing drink for sick

That it is as absurd to get body to do
good work on an empty stomach as to
attempt to fire gun that is empty.
That brooms dipped for moment or
two in boiling suds once week will
last much longer than they otherwise
would.
That neat, clean, fresh aired, sweet
and well-managed house exercises q
moral as we'll as physical influence
over it's inmates.
That one can have the hands in soap
suds without injury to the skin if the
hands are dipped in vinegar or lemon
juice Immediately after.
That milk contains all that is required
by the body, and the best proportion of
mineral matter; is less irritating than
other foods and better digested.
That water should never be used that
has been held in lead pipe all night,
and it should be allowed to run freely
before any is taken for use.
That mould can be prevented from
forming on fruit jellies by pouring q
little parafin over the top, and that,
when cool, it will harden to solid
cake, which can be easily removed when
desired,
