THE ERA OF ELECTRICITY.

Electric traction has already made
marvellous progress, and it is fairly
certain that as the general business
prosperity increases this progress will
be greatly accelerated. There is the
consolation for the steam railroads.
however. that improvements in electri-
cal traction are being constantly made
which will lessen the cost of equip
ment and reduce the running expenses.
By waiting these can be utilized.-BaI-

1t is interesting to speculate on the
possibilities of the trolley within even
so short period as the next half
dozen years. 1t is already certain that
the trolley will take away the subur-
ban traffic Of steam railroads. How
short time will be required for this
is the only question. There are many
who believe that even before this cen
fury has run out suburban trains will
be on the retired list.-Hartford Post.

The most noticeable feature of the
street railway statistics is the re-
markable extent to which electricity
has been applied at so early a date to
street railway transportation. The
horse has been displaced to a less de-
gree in New York and the southern
states than in other sections. but for
the country as a whole his dav in fha

There are undoubtedly good men in

men who may be carried away by their

try to present elaborate arguments
showing why the citizens of New YORK
should have Sunday beer.
Mr.. Roosevelt's- position on this ques-
ton is not generally understood. He
says that he is in favor of more liberal
excise laws. and is not opposed TO the
sale of drinks on sunday more than on
any other day. But while there is
law in existence prohibiting the sale OF
intoxicants on Sunday he intends to
enforce it. It is not within the scope OF
his duties to pass judgment upon the
justice or injustice of the laws; all he
must do is to enforce them.

Notes of a Visit to Ordway.

Last Thursday DR.. Mcdonald and
the Enterprise drove over to Ordway to
hear DIR. Vincent's lecture. We found
the neat and attractive NJ. E. church
comfortably filed by an appreciative
audience. The lecture entitled "Looking

wit, and while Of great educational value
was also quite entertaining. Rev. I. J.
Keator, the pastor of the church, should
(and doubtless does) have tho hearty
thanks of that community for securing
the series Of lectures which he has pro-
vided as an auxiliary to his successful
church work there during the past year.
The patronage Of the Hopper house

The La Jnnta Watermelon

The La Junta Watermelon
says: "From the number of cans
and other vessels being carried to
and from the artesian well, it
would seem that the people were
getting stuck on that water. What
is the matter with sinking one or
two wells up town? This is ques-
ton for the city to decide"
As a result of the t5 rate
made by the Santa Fe from all
points west of Newton, Kansas, to
enable farmers so visit the watered
ranches of the Arkansas valley
and see for themselves the prac-
teal benefits of irrigation, hund-
reds of visitors are scattered about
the valley from La Junta to Lamar
this week taking in the sights.
The newspapers have filled the
souls of the dry land farmers with
yearning desire to behold with
their own eyes the husbandry of
the irrigated regions, and the rail-
roads make it possible for this de-
sire to be gratified. And thus 1t
is that the newspapers and the
railroads are the two great agen-
cies which, by their harmonizing
influences, their broad Eberality
and their never ceasing efforts
build up the country in which they
are located. Much good is bound
to come of this visit of farmers to
the rich valley of the Arkansas.

panion.

Among the many attractive and
handsome Easter numbers SO pop
uIar among readers of magazines
and papers, The Youths Com
panion excols in appropriateness
to the season and in the excep-
tionnl quality of its reading matter.
"The Story of Statue" by the
Marquis of Lorne, prepared for
The Companion in collaboration
with the Princess Louise, is an
article of rare interest. "Dor-
othy's Easter" and "a Corner in
Eggs" are two typical Easter
stories we'll worth twice reading.
"The Romance of Shonl," an ad-
venture story by w. Clark Russell,
would be hard to duplicate.
Each one of the entire collection
of stories deserve special mention,
and with the miscellany, poetry,
ETC., collected in this one issue 1s
worth the price of the paper for

Rocky Ford last Thursday afternoon.
The evening an old and almost friendless
man named Whiteside died at the Har-
sen place, two miles east Of town, and
the burial was at the expense Of the
county. The funeral procession was en-
route to the cemetery when q moving
train frightened the horse being driven
by Rev. Warren Mayo. The horse took
sharp turn, the buggy was overturned
and Mr.. Mayo and Commissioner Wash
burn thrown to the ground. The
frightened horse then ran into the team
just in the rear, which was attached to
the hearse. This SO frightened this team
that they broke the pole loose from The
hearse and ran quite distance, finally
pulling John Deweese out on the ground
after which they ran up town. At the
lumber yard they struck fence and one
Of the horses had a leg broken, requiring
him to be shot. The horse was one OF
the best in Hale & Co.'S livery stable.

cident his wagon was brought into use
in conveying the corpse to the cemetery.
1t was a narrow escape both for
Maxwell Bros. and the tramp. 1t hap
pened like this: Twas ssmidnight's holy
hour" when George Maxwell.woke up and
bethought himself that all the new goods
received that day had not been taken in
from the sidewalk. So he dressed him
self and investigated, finding three cases
Of rubber boots on the walk but the
fourth case missing. Next morning a
tramp came along and asked Elmer
Conner il he had heard of anybody losing
any rubber boots Elmer responded in
the affirmative and he and George Max
well accompanied the fellow to where he
said he had found lot of rubber boots.
Near Cheeks brick yard one dozen pairs
Of boots were found. The box had been
opened and the boots scattered about but
none were missing. As on the return
trip the tramps 'pard" accosted them
from the door of box car, which was
the temporary home OF the pair. On the
road up town Mr.. Maxwell questioned
whether it would be best to have the
tramp arrested for the theft or rewarded
for bringing information of "finding" the
boots. However, when the store was
reached Mr.. Maxwell asked the fellow
what he needed most. The reply was
pair of shoes. Some of the best in the
house was given him. That was the last
seen Of the thief who turned detective
and returned the stolen goods for small
reward and no questions asked.
