Prune Trees Now.

There is a time in August or early
in September when fruit trees need
trimming, especially young ones that
are making SO much wood they dc
not develop fruit buds. Cut them
back after the second flow of sap is
partly spent. It will develop fruit
buds and fruit blossoms for the fol-
lowing spring. If cut too early, new
wood will grow, while a little later il
will not etart. If you find you have
cut too early, cut again. Pear trees
will sometimes keep on growing fol
years without fruit. Head them ii
severely in August-not cutting away
all the fruiting woodland they otter
respond the following season with 8
crop. Root pruning may do it,thougt
not so sure remedy. Summer prun'
ing is when you can shape your tres
or bush and make it as you like it Oh
make fruit tree fruit if it doesn't
want to.

L. P. Morrison and wife, corner of

Among the visitors at Canon City
last Saturday we're noticed DR.. A.
Reed and son d. A., of st. Joseph,
Mo-, j. M. Walsh. Mission Hill, South
Dakota; E. c. Hood, Pittsburg, Kans.
J. F. Younger, Winfield, Kansas; a
Mr.. Patterson, mining expert from
Colorado Springs, and A. Huber, pres
ident of the Copper King company.
The gathering here of this COM
pany and the visit of inspection to
the mine, may mean a great deal to
the Dawson City Camp. Sunday
found the entire party at the Copper
King mine, and the holdings of the
company were carefully inspected,
this is especially true regarding the
$50 foot shaft with its crosscuts and
drifts. Samples of ore we're brought
to the surface by the visitors and up
on being exposed to the light showed
splendidly to the visitors, each OF
whom carried samples away. Mr.
Younger was the lucky finder of a
specimen, which upon being washed
free from dirt showed well in free
gold. Mr.. Hood and Mr.. Younger are
both holders of stock in the company
now and it is more than probable each
will increase his holding.
The Copper King is attracting con-
siderable attention among mining
mel, and justly SO. The work being
done under the superintendence of
Mr.. Play is practical and sensible, and
ever since the new shaft was started
has seen daily improvement in ore
prospects. This is evidenced by the
fact that ore containing free gold has
been struck while running the last
crosscut, thus justifying Mr.. Phay's
predic tion.
On Monday two other gentlemen
presented letters of introduction to
Mr.. |. F. Dawson, asking permission
to visit and inspect the property.
This they did and upon their return
to this city expressed themselves as
being well pleased with the mine,
stating that there was only one thing
necessary to prevent good mine.
and that was to quit work. They
claimed that every indication was
right and I he best of results should
follow active and judicious work.
Lucky Day.
This promising property is located
on Grape Creek, seven miles south Of
Canon City, and indications prove the
claim to have been at least fully
prospected years ago, when greater
values were required to make a pay
proposition.
The company now owning the prop
erty is headed by Dr.. L. 3. McDougal

done. The shaft is now down 60 feet.
Last Saturday night the ore streak
showed width of 18 inches in the
bottom of the shaft. On Sunday the
streak had increased to more than
three feet in width. The new ore up
to this time has not been tested but
is said by competent judges to he
rich ore. Former tests as the work
has progressed shows an average
value of about $25. The owners feel
good over the discovery of this body
of ore, and Canon City feels good
over the prospective good luck of her
townsmen.
Bonanza.
This is another property that at
some earlier period was extensively
prospected. Its new owners have a
60 foot shaft of two compartments
and is on the Lucky Day lead. The
ore shows up well and tests justify
further work.
Pay Day.
This claim is close to the Lucky
Day, on Grape Creek, and on Satur-
day the shaft had only reached a
depth of eight feet. There is rich
ore there, however, as tests of that
taken out showed value of 5000 in
gold and silver. This claim is owned
by W. L. Huffman, Elmer Colwell, j.
7. Locke, J ,hn Bunks and Marion
Roberts. Work on this claim will be
continued and our readers need not
be surprised any day to learn that
Pay Day had opened up a regular
bonanza.
Found Free Gold.
The Copper King people at Dawson
City few days ago while prospecting
on the west end of their property,
opened up a vein of hematite of iron
that showed well in free gold. The
point where this ore was taken out
had evidently been prospected before
a number of years ago, as they found
where work had been done and the
hole filled up. The lead will be thor
oughly prospected.
In Rich Ore.
The owners of Copper King No. l,
the property situated in Pine Gulch,
and about fifteen miles from Canon
City, and upon which new machinery
has just been placed in position. is
at present creating considerable stir
among men who are interested in
finding out just what is in the ground.
Dawson City is increasing in point
of number of families, there being
six there now and one store. Other
families are getting ready to locate
there for the winter. All this indi-

LIFE UNDER WATER.
How the Creatures here Spend the
Winter Months.
From Our Animal Friends

From Our Animal Friends.
In February and in March more gen.
uine winter days come to use than at
any other time when we have a rea-
sonable and seasonable right to expect
them. Our young people, then, may
count upon the winter rOmpS of snow
balling, coasting and skating that
they are more sure If now than they
were in the arlier days of 1900 The
frozen surface of the ponds looks
dead enough. 1t would scarcely seem
that living water is beneath, and it is
even harder to imagine that animal
life is actually comfortably tucked
away under that icy cover!
Where do you suppose the frogs have
gone for the winter? They have SOFT
smooth-skinned bodies that would
freeze to death if exposed to the open
air temperature of this month. on the
bottom of the pond they have made a
bed for themselves in the ooze and
mud, huddled close together to keep
one another warm.
Water, as you know, freezes at 80
degrees Fahrenheit. In a pond, just as
in your bath tub, the water on the
top is the warmer and the water at
that warm water is expanded and Is
lighter than cold, so that it rises to
the surface, while cold water, which
is contracted, is heavier and sinks to
the bottom.
But as water freezes it begins again
to expand and that is why ice is
lighter than water. The water under
ice forms a layer about four or five
degrees above the freezing point, and
| the animate sleeping there through the
| winter are sheltered in 1t. There they
live and sleep until the spring sun
wakens them, and there they are
warmer and safer than if they-being
water animals-were so foolish as to
try to sleep anywhere else. Some small
water bugs do creep ashore to hide in
the Crannies of rocks and walls, but
they are little creatures that can fit
into such places The bigger animals
would die of exposure.
The frogs the fresh water mOlluSks,
know whore to go for the greatest
comfort, and there they stay their APP
| pointed time. 1t would never do for
an amphibibiOus frog, for instance, to
make a mistake, as a boy might, and
to crawl out of his comfortable bed
before he is called. Nevertheless,
when they are called in the spring time
the frogs and mullusks obey the sum
mons. They don't lie abed longer than
they need to and that is the moral
of this talk about their winter life and
ways.

Free Speech in Pittston.

Editor OF the Tribune
Sir: Win you kindly publish the enclosed
open letter to Mayor Corcoran and oblige the
undersigned:
Pttston, Pa, July l8, 1900,
We, the undersigned residents OF Pittston and
vicinity interested in the public welfare, having
given careful consideration to the reports of the
local press in relation to the action Of the mayor
in arrcsting one Vincent r. Dillionis, while en-.
gagged in conducting a meeting in the Armory
Hall, PtttSton, on Sunday evening, July S, hav.
ing also heard full statements from Mr., Dill.
lions, and information given by other respon-
sible persons, and believing that we voice
strong and widespread sentiment, hereby express
the conviction which, by our common love of
truth, justice and liberty we feel compelled to
adopt.
without expressing any opinion to the
merits Of either the man or the message feel
constrained to record our emphatic protest
against the action of Mayor Corcoran at whose
instance Mr.. Dillionis was arrested while in the
exercise Of the inacnabc right of every Amer-
can citizen--frecdom Of speech, Such action we
consider an infringcments of the rights of con-
science and of the constitution; dshonor to
our city and blot upon our flag.
In view of the facts that the lecture proceeded
quietly for the space of some ten or fifteen min
utcs and that the evidence given in court by
Mr.. Dllions, and supported by other responsible
parties, indicates that the mayor forbade CON
stable to remove the man who first interrupted
the speaker, il is manifest that instead Of the
lecturer violating the city ordinance by causing
disorder, it was the intcTrupter who was guilty
of causing the breach of law in disturbing an
orderly assembly, and who should have been ar
rested by the mayor and tried for his ohense.
Believing that the mayor allowed himself,
without full consideration to be unduly intlu'
cnccd by some who from motives other than
those Of order and liberty, wished to prevent
Mr.. Dllions addressing a pcaccable and law
abiding Lithuanian society, and so unwiscly COM
mittCd himself to an unlawful and incNcusahe
interference with religious liberty and the rights
Of free speech, express the hope that the
mayor, and all who with him were instigators
in this un-Amcrcan procedure, will voluntarily
offer to Mr.. DliOns the least amends they can
make for the injustice and the personal indigni,
| ties laid upon him-a frank apology. And fur.
,.cr, we call upon the mayor and his officers to
| avoid a repetition Of such acts, and in future
| to afford TO Mr.. Dilonis, any other indi
| vidual who may wish to hold a lawful meeting
within the city precincts the full protection
| which the laws Of the nation guarantee in the
| exercise Of the rights Of conscience and liberty
| Of speech
