THE people Of Tongue and Surface
creeks are entitled to a bridge across
the Gunnison at the mouth Of Tongue
creek, and it should be built by the
county. 1t is said that the county has
expended all it's available resources in
that direction and if that is the case it
would seem as though the next best
thing would be to accept the proposition
Of the Bullen Bridge Co., as noted on our
local page. and have the bridge built,
carrying it until such time as the county
is able to purchase it.

The Delta Gaming Factory.

Judging from the rapidity with which
Manager Anderson is placing orders for
its product the Delta Canning Factory
10 destined to become one Of the perma.
nent and successful ventures of the
Western Slope. Its goods are evidently
ofsuperior quality. appearance and flavor
and it is to the credit Of the dealers Of
the Western Slope townsthat they are
svidencing a disposition to patronize
home industry. II their customers will
show the Same disposition it will be but
short time until all the pickles, chow
chows, catsups, sauces, kraut, fruit
buffers and canned fruits used in the
Colorado mining camps will be put up
in Delta, Montrose, Grand Junction and
other Colorado towns.
Mr.. Anderson visited Grand Junction
last week and the News said OF him:
"E. H. Anderson. representing the Delta
Packing company, was in tho city on
Thursday and Friday Of this week. in
Producing the products OF the Delta
canning factory. He states that our
merchants have bought literally OF his
canned goods, and he is highly pleased
with the spirit manifested by them in
the matter. The goods are said to be Of
extra fine quality, and will compare
fsvorably with the old established can
neries."
Anderson, superintendent OF the Delta
Packing Co., has been in our city for the
past two days taking orders from our
merchants for goods put up by the Delta
factory. These include all kinds Of
pickles, sauces and relishes, catsup
horseradish and vegetables of every
variety. Merchants who inspected the
samples inform our reporter that they
are of the very best quality and will sell
readily"
The Sentinel says: "E H. Anderson OF
Delta is gentleman who has been visit
ing in this city for the past few days,
represen ting the interests of the Delta
Packing Co. This company was or
ganized during the past summer and
has its product on the market already.

privilege Of inspecting the samples of
the goods which have been packed by
tho company this year, it will be i'm
possible to describe their general ex.
esllence and beauty. At the Brunswick
this morning Mr.. Anderson had the
different specimens Of their packed prod
uct on exhibition, especially those in
glass, and they certainly compared more
than favorably with the product Of any
other goods which are shipped into this
city. He had chow chow, chill sauce,
mixed pickles, catsup, tomatoes, onions
and several specimens of their buffers
in cans. j. F. Sanders, one of the
owners Of the famous Bachelor at

Helen Keller,

ler, is i'll New York. and it was my

teens now and il much better informed
than most girls of hor age. though she
Is blind and deaf. Sho was dumb as
we'll, but has been taught to spenk. Her
articulation is slow and strange, but it
is perfectly distinct OF course her one
sense is that of touch, and she has de-
voloped it to tho highest capacity.
A death mask of Keats was laid on
her lap, and passing her hands over it
She expressed her admiration for tho oyi-
donces OF intellect that sho found in it.
Sho oven detected tho smile that parts
tho lips of the dead poet. A bust of Ma
poleon was also given to her After
passing her hands gently over it she
recognized tho features and said that
She Thought it must have been made

preston was less anxious than in one
She had "scen" day or two before.
Not only has this child II most remark

most careful training, for she is not

Doctoring Tea Ieayeh,

According to tho police reports, q
firm III London was recently convicted
OF doctoring used tea leaves and soil
ing them for leaves which had not yot
boon infused. Tho ingenious method
adopted was to collect from large res
taurants spent leaves and to subject
them to kind of whitening process.
This was achieved by projecting them
through redhot iron pipe, out OF
which they came curled up and dried
ready to be resold-we trust not to the
restaurants from which they came.
The business appears to have been u
hourishing one, for it came ont In evil
dence that moro than 5000 pounds
weight of this revived" tea had been
sold in less than two months Unfortu-
Dately for the promoters Of the indus
try, an old act Of parliament has de-
ciarcd that tho sale Of spent toa leaves
is illegal, and so, for tho present, these
leaves, except for what use the house
maid makes Of them. must still remain
