New Fruit Train.

Tee new Rio Grande fruit train left

It is a special and will so run, making
the time to Denver as quickly as posi-
BILE.
Agent Hum was not able to Say wheth-
or there would be passenger coach at
tached to the train, but thought that
there would be. All fruit going by this
new train, which is placed on the train
schedules of the road, will go Via Rio
Grande express.
1t is expected by the express people
that they will land the fruit in Denver
by seven o'clock the following morning
after the train leaves here. There is a
big demand in Denver at che present
time for the very freshest fruit and by
the aid of the new train with which the
Ri Grande people will accommodate
their patrons great saving in time and
betterment OF the fruit in landing at
its destination will be accomplished.
Agent S. G. Hum, backed by w. H.
Bisbee are to be given the credit for Sc
curing the train service, although it was
tried year ago with good results.

War on Weeds.

There are a great many hay fever sutf-
erers in this city. The disease is not an
epidemic by any manner OF means yet
the city is not free from it. Those who
suffer from the dread summer disease
know that it comes largely from an over
abundance of weeds which have no place
in any we'll regulated city. They should
be cut and burned. Besides being a
menace to good health they are insight
ly and give an extremely bad appearance
to the city. Stringent measures should
be adopted to rid the city of the weeds.
The following taken from the News of
Denver can be given good application in
this city:
There ls an epidemic OF hay fever in
town and the city health authorities are
preparing to wage a vigorous war.
The city inspectors have been ordered
to accept no excuse on the part OF prop
erty owners who have failed to cut weeds
upon their holdings. Although DR..
Carlin's proclamation. issued five or six
weeks ago, calling upon residents to rid
their premises OF weeds and noxious
plants was freely published, there is not
one in 500 who has obeyed the mandate.
AS the edict was explicit and called for
little or no expense, and as the law
backs the health office. every delinquent
will be arrested and tried in the police
court.
DR. Carlin thinks the inspectors have
been entirely too lenient with this mat
ter and in consequence, huge stalking
weeds are seen upon many down town
vacant lots.
The health of people in the neighbor-
hood has become endangered, and in
several cases affected, as reports OF hay
fever, which these plants breed, are pill
ing in at the rate of a dozen day
The gang OF city prisoners, employed
at 25 cents day to chop weeds is doing
it's work we'll but the territory is too
vast to be visably affected by dozen
scy thes. At the present rate it would
take year to chop all the weeds with
| in radius of two miles from the post
Office.
In other cities after an initial notifica-
tion. delinquent property holders are at
once arrested and fined as their negli-
eence results at times in not only sick
ness, but death.
