New York, July %. "A mad infatuation
prompted Mrs. j. V. Root to leave her
pretty home In Harlem and run away
with her husbands friend, Edwin Hill,
six weeks ago.
The aggrieved husband, smarting under
the shame and disgrace, hunted them with
detectives. Locating them In Hoboken he
invoked the Jersey law, and the elopers
spent night In a prison cell.
1t was disagreeable and humiliating
ending Of their romance, but Mrs. Root
puts her faith In Cupid, who. she says, Is
alone responsible for her unconventional
method Of changing mates and declares
she Is happy.
Mr.. Root says he Is satisfied, too. but he
didn't look so as he sat In the cosy parlor
of his deserted home at No. 1882 Amster-

THE WESTERN SLOPE CONGRESS.

The Western Slope Congress will meet
on the fret q, September this year in the
town OF Delta. 1t is probable that it will
ne well attended and that more than
usual interest will be taken in its delibera-
tions. The people of the Western Slope
have reason to be in a hopeful mood, and
81 they will be disposed 10 come together
10 accomplish something for the good Of
their section.
Efforts have often been put forth to
advertise the natural resources of the
western part of the state. But it has
seemed almost like throwing money away
to try to make people in the Middle West
or the east believe that there is anything
attractive on Colorado's Western Slope.
1t is different now. The Western Slope
is advertising itself. Its fruit will be
sent all over the east to proclaim that
the people OF Mesa, Delta and Montrose
counties have not been idle. This fruit
will tell those who eat it that Colorado
can at least approach very close to sup
plying the place OF Delaware and Mary.
land in furnishing the markets OF New
York, Boston and Philadelphia with good
peaches. 1t is an advertisement which
will make Colorado famous throughout
the eastern part of the Union. 1t will
suggest that there is something worth
considering in such country.
This situation should be taken advant-
ago OF by the Western Slope Congress.
Provision should be made to spread
information about the western part Of
the state throughout the east and middle
west. 1t would have great effect, be-
cause it would encounter a public willing
il not eager to listen to information con-
corning the fruit region OF our western
counties. From listening to talk about
fruit, people could easily be drawn to
listen to reports concerning other re-
sources. Stories OF Colorado's triumph
over California in the production OF
peaches would fnd an interesting sequel
in evidence showing the superiority OF
this state in the production OF gold.
1t was in the production Of gold that
California gained its first fame. This it
supplemented by the production OF fruit.
1t would be in the highest degree credit
able to Colorado il it should take from
California both Of these distinctions in
one year. The western part Of the state
is aiding in each Of these achievements,
and TO It will belong nearly all the credit
for the horticultural victory. The Wes t.
ern Slope Congress would find in the
publication OF these facts congenial
and interesting occupation.-Denver Re-
publican.
