new SOCIAL
CLUB ORGANIZED

A number of young ladies met at
the home of Miss Ida Harrison, 901
River street, one night last week and
organized social club. with Miss
Minnie Baker as president, the cleo
ton of other officers being deferred
until the next meeting, which will
be held at the home of Misses Minnie
and Maude Baker tomorrow night.
The club was launched with
charter list of sixteen members, but
it is expected this number will be
increased until the enrolment reaches
a score or more. The object of the
organization is to promote the social
amenities and the cultivation of the
graces of hospitality and entertain
ment. 1t was agreed that the pro-
gram of entertainment to be given by
the hostess of the club, at all regular
meeting, should be withheld from the
guests until they had assembled TO en-
joy her hospitality, thereby adding
the zest of surprise TO the occasion.
On a vote being taken it was de-
cided TO hold three open meetings
during the coming winter, to which
invitations should be sent out to the
young men of their acquaintance
The members of the club are planning
to commemorate the holiday season
by grand ball.

KEEP THE ALLEYS CLEAN

There appears to be a disposition
on the part of a good many people
in both the business and residence
sections OF the city to utilize the pub
lie alleys as dumping ground for
garbage and refuse of various kinds,
all of which is unsanitary and ubnox-
ious.
While there may be a strong incli-
nation to use the alleys for the pur-
pose indicated there is no justification
for it as the man who is guilty of
the habit will decide after a moments
reflection on the subject.
There is altogether too much rub
bish thrown over back fences into
alleys by careless or thoughtless peo-
pie where it grows by accretion until
it becomes fetid mass, partly OBJ
structing the roadway and disscminat-
ing germs to prey upon the health of
the community.
The alleys are public property and
10 Use them as a dumping ground for
the filth and rubbish of the home is
in contradiction of the city ordinances.
Individual pride in the city's ap-
pearsnce and healthfulness should be
sufficient detriment to put a stop to
the practice, and it is hoped that
those who have trangressed in the
matter will begin reform before the
habit becomes general. Next to we'll
kept streets and attractive homes
nothing contributes more TO the ap-
pearance and health of place than
clean, wholesome alleys. combins-
tion of which means healthy COM
munity, physically and morally.

WHAT THEY SAY

4 kcntuckian, who has been spend
ing the summer in Colorado, remarked
TO the local pencil shower of The Rec
ord a few days ago:
Somehow, l find it difficult
matter to get acquainted with these
western people, they seem to lack our
southern warmth and hospitality, al
though they are broad minded and in
tellectual, perhaps surprising Us in
general education and some other
qualities which contribute to the ma
terial prorgess of the community.
II have made but few acquaintan-
ces here, although l have been in
your beautiful little city for several
weeks; l would be stranger to ma
jority Of your people if l We're to re-
main here six months, unless made
all the advances myself, which a man
of my disposition is reluctant to do.
II have no doubt that the people
out here are as generous and kind
hearted as those in my own section
of the country, but to me they appear
to be a little deficient in that impuI-
siveness which to, my mind is one of
the charms of hospitality"
To The Record man, Colorado is
the best state in the Union and its
people, as n whole, superior to these
found elsewhere in the wide world,
but in our bustling, energetic life we
may have ignored some of those
little social amenities of which our
friend from the Blue Grass state COM
plains.
Let us not forget that there are
many little things which must not
be left undone in our efforts to do big
things for ouI city; things that to us,
who are acquainted with nearly
everybody we chance TO meet, may
seem trivial and of no importaIce,
may appear e very hig matter to one
who comes among us an entire
stranger.
Courtesy to those who come among
us, whether for health or recreation,
costs nothing, and As dividend payer
in fraternity and good will, it is un-
equsied.
There are ways of ascertaining who
Is worthy of our friendship, and in
most cases ii does not require six,
nor even three months, to determine it.

\ couple of old soldiers of the Civil
War, who Were participants in the
fighting before Atlanta, thirty-sight
years ago, were discussing the incl
dents of that memorable campaign in
front of the post-office one day last
week, when one of them, who was
in a strongly reminiscent mood,
described with much vividness the
killing of Gen. jas. B. Mcpherson ON
the PC OF July. 1854.
He said Gen. Mcpherson was
the idol of the Army of the Tennessee
and his death was great loss to the
Union cause. The soldiers keenly felt
the death of their gallant leader and
when they had recovered from the
first effects of the blow they had sus-
tanned aud went into battle under
the leadership of the intrepid John
\. Logan, it was with the slogan.
Remember Mcpherson, Remember
McPherson" The impulse given TO
the army under this cry, was irresis-
table and the Confederates were un-
able TO withstand the dash and valor
of the Bows in Blue. The picture
of Gen. Logan galloping. down the
line while the battle was in progress,
with his hat in one hand and his
unshcathed sword in the other. ad-
monishing his men to Remember
Phealson, is one of the most thrilling
in the military history of the country,
and helped win for him that fame
for bravery, which an admiring sold.
iery bestowed upon him. Logan
won the day and Gen. Sherman, his
superior officer, promised to recon-
mend him to President Lincoln for
a brigadier generals star as the sue
cessor of Mcpherson. but he failed
to reaeem his pledge because Logan
was not West Pointer. The perfidy
of the commanding general was re
sented in mutterings of discomfort
throughout the Army of the Tennessee
and thousands of men would have
volunteered to hang Gen. sherman
had not such step been an act of
insaboriination. Shernsn's failure
to recommend Logan for promotion
after the battle of Atlanta embittered
the latter towards the former so much
that the feeling of dislike was never
entirely eradicated. The killing of
Mcpherson and the heroism of Logan
at Atlanta Were two of the most
dramatic incidents of Sherman's ia.

\ goup CT gentlemen were engaged
in conversation on the Strathmore
corner few days ago in relation
to the advantages of Canon City as
a place of residence, and of the best
manner of giving publicity to that
fact. when one of them remarked:
Did it ever occur to you that,
next to the newspapers, the CONNER
cial travellers that visit our city COM
pose one of the most potential agen-
cies we have in advertising the super
iority of the climate, location aud
business advantages of Canon City,
There is no class of men that will
do more, if properly treated, to sing
the praises of our ambitious little
city than the travelling statesmen.
They go into every town, village and
hamlet in this and adjoining states;
they travel on all the railroad lines,
they meet men in every department
of business life, they are the best ad-
vertisers in the world
They can do town irreparahle
damage by talking against it. or can
confer incalculable benefits upon
It by talking favorably of it, and in
this concction it must not be forgotten
that the commercial traveller, rs a gen

LOCOMOTIVE ON A MOUNTAIN.
Getting It There Was a Laborious
 and Delicate Task.

Chattanooga (Tenn) Times.
 The Etna Coal Company has just com pleted an engineering feat that a few years ago would have been pronounced an utter impossibility, and even when un- dertaken by them was viewed with sus- picion and great distrust. The feat con- sisted in landing thirty-ton Baldwin locomotive .on the top of Raccoon Moun- tain, an elevation of 300 feet above the tracks of the Nashville, Chattanooga and St. Louis Railroad.
 The Etna coal mines are located prac- tically at Whiteside, Tenn, but the mines are high up in the mountains The open ing of the larger coal fields by the com pany further along the top of the noun tain has necessitated the enlargement and betterment of the facilities of handling the output. To do this some 200 feet of additional trestle work has just been completed and three-quarters of a mile of new track laid. To move these cars along this little railroad 1t became nec- essary to get locomotive on top of the mountain.
 G. K. Exum the engineer of the com pany, and D. B. Pillsbury, general man. ager, inspected the incline that is oper ated to carry the coal from the top of the mountain to the railroad below, and ex- pressed their opinion that it would be fea- sible to take the giant engine up the mar row track Four days ago the work was begun under many misgivings with force of twelve men, all under the di- rect supervision of Messrs. Exum and Pillsbury.
 The work was exceedingly slow and tor tuous. the engine moving only an inch at time, but persistent effort on the part of the workmen landed the locomotive on top of the mountain and on the tracks over which it Is to operate. at o'clock Saturday morning It was found that not one part of the delicate machinery had been as much as strained by the ordeal of moving it up the mountain.
 When 1t Is understood that the incline is a narrow-guage affair running from the Nashville, Chattanooga and St. Louis tracks to the top of Raccoon Mountain. some 500 feet above the level of the rail- road tracks, with rise of one foot in three, the proportions of the immense undertaking can be seen.

breed to decline the offer on account of

forced to decline the offer on account of the scarcity of cars.
 A Norfolk dispatch said on Saturday last: The freight traffic of the Seaboard Air Line is badly crippled by the scarcity of coal. Today the coal that was aboard freight engines was removed to passen- ger engines and only enough was secured to run the southbound train out of Nor folk last night. The lines shops are busy changing engines to wood burners.
 "The combined street railway system of tidewater Virginia, is depending largely upon refuse coal and scrap wood from the large mills for fuel and has chartered barges and tugs to gather fuel. Their shutdown would put Norfolk. Ports mouth, Newport News, Hampton, Berk- ley and adjoining suburbs in darkness and stop cars and ferries. The city as- sociation of tug-boat owners met last night and raised charges on account of coal scarcity.
 A resident of New York City. once well known Columbian. is now in the city endeavoring to secure cars of wood to be delivered in Trenton and several other New Jersey cities"

STREET CAR MEN GUILTY.
Inquest Says They. are Responsible
 for Craig's Death.

Pittsfield Mass, Oct. 16.-The finding in the inquest following the accident in which President Roosevelts bodyguard, William Craig. was killed here in Sep tember, filed yesterday says that the un- lawful acts of James T. Kelly, conduc- tor, and Euclid Madden motorman, of the electric car, which ran into the Pres ident's carriage, contributed to the death of MT. Craig"
 The finding was by Special Judge c. L. Hibbard
 The Justice was unable to find wheth- CT or not the power was on when the car struck the carriage.
 Tn conclusion. the special justice finds that the car was allowed to attain a dan gerous speed, the fender was not prop erly locked in position; but that if it had been it would not in all probability have prevented the death of Craig, and that the unlawful act of Motorman Madden and Conductor Kelley contributed to the death of Craig.'
