A cANoNITE ARRESTED
In Vermont. Charged with Poisoning
Ills Affianced.

When the daily papers on Sunday
chronicled the arrest Of Wallace Won
dette at Middleburg, Vermont, and
credited him with being a resident of
Canon City most of our people
thought a mistake had been made.
He had, however, been resident here
for more than year past, but his
circle Of friends was small, as he de-
voted his entire time to his business
interests, he being superintendent Of
the Fremont Marble company. Dur
ing part Of the time he has been an
inmate of the family Of Mr.. F. l..
Pond, who resides Just east of the
Methodist church, and is regarded by
the family as an exemplary gentleman.
He is a widower and has reared a
family of children in an excellent
manner.
1t seems that Mr.. Vondette was
engaged to a Miss Ida Fosburg at
his former home in Vermont, and be-
tween the two has been maintained
regular and frequent correspond
ence, and several days ago Mr.. Von-
dette left Canon City for his former
home, his intention being to wed the
lady Of his choice. About the time
of his arrival home Miss Fosburg died.
the charge being that death was the
result Of poison administered in candy.
This package of candy Vondette is
charged with sending, and his arrest
followed Immediately on his arrival.
At this distance from the scene of
the crime it is impossible to know all
the details, but the intimate friends
of Mr.. Vondette in Canon City were
horrifed on reading the report. They
confidently assert that a grave mis-
take has been made, that he is inno-
cent Of the crime charged, and that
when the case shall have been more
fully investigated he will be fully ex-
onerated. A Rutland, Vermont, pa
per states that the young lady COM
mitted suicide.

HAIL, FLORENcEl
Ms Street Railway System An As
sured Fact.-Eiectricity VIII
Furnish the Hotive
Power.

Florence is to be congratulated
upon possessing one citizen at least
who has unmeasured confidence in
the future of that city. His conf
dence is of that substantial character
which carries his money with it. Tn,
gentlemen referred to is Mr. Thomas
, Robinson, who is and has been identi-
fed with Florence from its infancy.
1t was Mr.. Robinson who conceived
the idea of connecting Canon City and
Florence by circle electric railway.
Unable to get just the franchise lie
thought he ought to have here he
sought and obtained a franchise from
the authorities Of South Canon. The
idea was laughed at by many, but the
old adage he who laughs last" etc.
is being verified at this time. Act
i've work on the proposed system was
started in Florence some time ago,
but for some reason operations were
suspended.

THE CONTEST.
A Count OF the Vote to be Made by
Next Week.

The contest grows and fortunate
indeed will be the teachers who get
the prize. A good many votes have
come in during the past week and
some new names have been presented.
There is an inclination on the part of
some to hold back their votes till
they know who is in the lead then
vote for the probable winner. This
isn't the best policy if you have any
choice at all. Its best to vote at
once before the count and force your
favorites up as far as possible.
Get in your votes and watch for
the count next week-then of course
the count will not Indicate the winner
by any means. After next week the
count win be published each week.
The contest will close shortly before
school is out-the exact date will be
announced later.

In looking over some old papers
racently came across copy Of the
RECORD published in 1897. Old sub
scribers will remember that some
time previous to that '.ye editor" had
been looking through rosy glasses. or
had attended pink tea, judging
from the color of the paper. The
writer was living in Illinois at this
time, and funny little incident oc-
Cured owing to this peculiar tine of
the RECORD. A young gentleman in
the neighborhood dropped in one day
and catching sight of this paper quite
confidently said as he picked it up:
This is something ! always enjoy
looking at" Then failing to see any
of the startling headlines or thrilling
pictures, a look of astonishment
crept over his face as he remarked
that he was sure it was the Police
Gazette. CORRESPONDENT.

Besides making their declarations

the whole trouble that the Willard got
into. The statements Of the two men
revealed a new condition OF affairs
on the front where matters in the

past few months been very quiet. II
appears that there are several firms
