DAMAGING DROUGHT BREAKER
Eastern Colorado Relieved OF
Drought, But the Rain Came
With Needless Violence.

Denver, Col, Aug. IA general
rain has fallen all over eastern Colo
RADIO. In many places it amounted to
a cloudburst, washing out the rail-
road tracks. At Tercio, 40 miles from
Trinidad, the Colorado q Wyoming
railroad depot was moved from its
foundations. AT. Manitou the damage
from a cloudburst amounted to S1O,-
300. while near Pueblo the damage
will amount to $4,000. Railroad traf-
fic is badly demoralized, but none OF
the washouts will take long to re-
pair.
The rain was of inestimable benefit
to crops and will relieve the water
famine in Denver and other Colorado
cities for time at least.
