COUNTRY ENJOYING.
GREAT PROSPERITY

President Jeffery of the Rio
Grande, who recently returned
from New York, comes back full
OF optimistic views OF the imme-
diate future of Colorado. He
says that not only the hank clear
ing and railroad earning, but also
all other tests clearly show that
the country, as a whole, is en-
]oying great prosperity. This
condition Of business, BROADLY
speaking, is generating n dispo-
sition among investors of all de-
grees to once more turn their eyes
toward the West. He said that
the big slump in stock on Cover
nor Flowers death hardly effected
Rio Grande stocks at all.

NEWS FROM THE

Z. w. Reed and wife returned
from Hot Springs, Mo. yesterday.
Mrs. Reed is very much improved
10 health, and is looking much
better-so is Charlie.
DIR. Kimmell went 10 Denver
on the morning train Monday, on
business, returning on the mid
night train. While going to the
depot, on Seventeenth below Mar
ket, he was met by "big burly
bum, , who invited him to s'cough
up his earthly possessions. The
doctor had his travelling case hung
on his right side, and pressing q
spring, he handed the "gcntleman''
Q silver mounted Smith & Wes-
son to "change." The ''hold-up''
made a break up the alley in search
of ''change," and the doctor was
a "middle-of- the-road- Pop" the
rest of the way TO the depot.

about this, so don't read it aloud.

TOO RIDICULOUS
To BELIEVE

The Denver Post of last night
publishes a startling story that the
Colorado G Southern has leased
the Santa Fe and will run its trains,
except a local passenger and
freight, over that track, saving
forty minutes between Denver and
Colorado Springs. The story is
too ridiculous for anything. On
the contrary bran new time card
to take effect next Sunday is out,
and an additional passenger train
is put on our road, giving magnif-
icent service. We do not think
there is bit of truth in the Posts
story.

U. S. DEPT. OF AGRICULTURE
Climate and Crop Bulletin OF tho
Weather Bureau. Colorado
Section, for tho weok ending
Monday, May 22.

The temperature during the
week has averaged slightly higher
than normal in the southeastern,
considerably lower in the northern
and western. and practically nor
NAL in the central counties. The
range has been marked-several
days having been very warm,
while two nights brought unusual
ly low temperatures and general,
but not very destructive, frosts.
Precipitation has occurred in
Larimer county, and thence cast
ward along the South Platte, and
heavy rain is reported from east
ern part of Cheyenne and show
ers from Prowers county; else
where the drought is unbroken.
The water supply is ample, ex-
sept in the seuth-central section
and parts of San Luis Park.
Drying winds, cool nights, and
droughty conditions having con-
tinued, vegetation and work is
practically at II standstilI. Grain
has come up uneveniy, and is
generally poor stand. Corn and
potato planting continues as rapid
iy as the condition of the soil
will permit, but is only one-haf
completed, and the seed is germi-
mating slowly. Frosts and hail
have caused some damage to fruit
and garden truck in parts of the
north-central section and the
western slope. The strawberry
crop promises to be excellent in
Garfield county. Except over the
small areas favored by precipita-
ton, there is much complaint as
to condition of the ranges.
