DALI DEwEEsE HONORED
By the 0overnment-ToE Explore Alas.
ka In the Interest Of the Smith
sonian Institute.

Mr.. Dali DeWeese has just received
an appointment from the government
to go to Alaska in the interests Of the
Biological Survey and the Smithson-
ian Institute. The object of the trip
is TO make correct map of the in
terror and to collect specimens of
large mammals for the Smithsonian
Institute. He viii leave in few days
for the coast and take the first vessel
for Cooks Inlet from which point he
will go into the interior many miles.
The government could not have
found better man in the country
for such mission. 1t was only a
year ago that Mr.. DeWeese travelled
over much of this ground. He is a
natural born explorer and hunter, and
he is never so happy as when thou
sands of miles from civilization alone
with nature and big game. On his
last trip Mr.. DeWeese took the sec
ond largest moose head ever captured
and the largest Alaska grizzly ever
seen. On this trip he also did great
service for the Klondikers by explor-
ing and guiding several parties over
the dangerous passes between the
coast and the Klondike country.
While Mr.. DeWeese will be hand
sonely remunerated for his valuable
services still it is for the pleasure of
the trip more than for the cash that
he has consented to 90, as he is one
Of the largest individual fruit land
owners in this section. That he will
eminently succeed and make for him
self a name in the biographies and
histories of the country no one who
knows him has the slightest doubt.

More Enterprise.

We are pleased to note and desire
to call the fruit raisers' special atten-
ton to the laudable enterprise in the
way Of a complete canning, cider and
picking factory now in course of
construction corner of Eighth and
Water streets
This is the new plant of The Canon
City Cider & Picking Company of
which we made recent mention. This
business was established here last year
in modest way by Mr.. A. F. Cherry,
! formerly of Fremont, Nebraska, who
comes with the best of recommenda-
tions. Mr.. Cherry by close attention
to business and filling long Felt want
in this locality demonstrated the
necessity of such a business, and
recognizing the need of a more ex-
tensive plant purchased the entire
block of ground between Seventh and
Eighth streets south of the D. & R
G. X. X. and running back to the
river as fine factory site as could
be desired. A stock company has
been formed and local capital inter
ested. Mr.. Cherry is president and
manager, Mr.. W. H. LaGrange, so
well known in our city, is vice presi-
dent and N. T. Hand secretary and
treasurer. Mr.. Robt. Ryan, formerly
of Leadville and well known by our
old time citizens, is one of the direc-
tors.
The company have the main fac
tory building about completed. The
size is 32xl02 feet; 9x9 cellar; a ware
room 32x72 feet will be built adjoin-
ing; also vinegar generating room.
These buildings are all brick and
finished in the best of style, and will
mark another additional and material
growth to our city. All the neces-
sary machinery is on the ground and
will be placed soon as buildings are
completed.
This is certainly a commendable
enterprise and fills long felt want
as place to market over-ripe fruit
and products that will not bear trans
portation and also the second and
third class goods that it does not pay
to market and which come in compe-
tition with number one goods and
thereby lowers the price, and for
these heretofore unstable products
you have cash market right at your
door; and not only this but it is the
object Of the company to buy not
only fruits but vegetables, such as
tomatoes. cucumbers, cabbage, ETC.,
in fact everything that can be canned
or barreled.
Surely this is great thing for the
small ranchman and d Of greater
uscsssity 70 him than evsa other
