FLORENCE A BETTER ,rlARkE1
Higher Prices Paid for Hay Here
Than at Canon.

Richard r. Houle, residence
OF the Wet Mountain valley is
here and today told a representa-
+ tive of The TRIBUNE that the
Florence markets for the products
of that valley were better than
at Canon. The people here pay
$lU per ton more for hay and a
considerable advance on all other
commodities. He says also that
Florence is the place to buy
groceries because by buying bill
of goods here to the amount of
500 difference of $40 can be
saved over the same amount bought
at Canon City. This speaks a
great deal for the Florence mer-
chants. rs
In regard to the Bassick mine
Mr., Hanle says that the contract
work has been finished and the
contractor has. returned to his
home in Leadville. The new
shaft has been sunk to depth of
$500. Ore OF high values have
besn opened and it is the inten-
tion of the management to start
up the mine in a few days In re-
gard to the mining outlook, he is
enthusiastic and says already pros
pectors are finding their way in
there and that rich gold mine
will be opened in these new dig
gings.
Incidentally it can be stated at
this opportnne time, that the need
OF a railroad to connect Florence
with that rich district is apparent.

ENEMY OF BEES AND BUGS.

Honey bees and insects and bugs
of less degree find pitfalls and often
death in the beautiful blossoms of
the milkweed, otherwise known as
the Virginia swallowwort. If
these flowers are examined any
sunny day one will be pretty sure
to find them decorated with mis-
cellaneous assortment of strug.
Cling or dead insects with their
legs fast in the slits of the peculiar
blossoms. The pollen of this com.
mon plant, instead of being a
powder, as in the case of most
plants, consists of sticky, waxen
masses hidden within the blossom.
When a visiting insect thrusts a
proboscis or leg into the opening
of such a flower some of these
masses stick to it, and the natural
course is for the insect to fly off to
another flower and fertilize this
with the adhering pollen. All in.
sects, however, are not strong
enough to extract their legs from
the sticky places, and then ensues
the slow torture of hanging there
until death or helping hand re-
leases them from misery. Besides
being beautiful, it could be quite a
useful plant if we cared to develop
it's virtues. Thus it's milky juice
contains caoutchouc; brown sugar
has been made from the flowers
the silky hairs of the seeds are
servieable in the manufacture of
textile fabrics, as cotton Is, and q
fibre of good quality for ropemak.

Miss Josephine Ramsey Dead.

JEFFERSON CRY, Mo-, Sept. 25.-.
After three weeks illness Miss
Josephine Ramsey died of typhoid
fever to-day. Although her death
has been daily expected it came as
a shock to the people. Miss Ram
sey had lived here all her life. She
was educated here and taught in
the public school for over twelve
years. She was member of the
A. M. E. church and was also a
member of the Tabitha Court. She
had the reputation of being one of
the best primary teachers of the
state. She considered a part of her
mission in life was to care for her
aged parents. This duty she per-
formed cheerfully and we'll. About
four years ago her mother passed
away seven months ago her father
departed this life; four months
afterward her brother; four weeks
ago her sister, Mrs. McQuary, with
whom she lived, also passed away.
Her niece, Miss Hattie McQuary
is not expected to recover. Miss
Ramsey leaves many friends to
mourn her sad death.

WATER LITIGATION
Heoorder Jobs Takes Hand in Irii-
 gation Disputes

There is no sort of litigation that the city recorders court will not tackle if the play comes right. It is not equipped with iuries and other con- Comitants of. a highly digEitied trib- Unal but on the other hand the re corders court will finch from no duty however embarrassing it may appear to one who does not understand the courage begOtten Of a strong and high minded purpose.
 Hitherto it has been generally con- ceded that water litigation had to be conducted in the district court, or at least before a justice of the peace, but yesterday Recorder Jcbs got his eagle eye on a couple of water cases and made a good record. He tried one and discharged the defendant and will try the other today.
 Sometime ago the city water com rany had been turning ite waste wafer from it's Coudcnsing machinery at the watcrwcrFs plant out onto the high way in manner that sdmettHcs flooded the street The city observing this constructed a ditch to acCommo- date the water and prevent the street flooding, assuming that in that-event tho water would belong to the city. F. Viault supposinG the water belonged tC the water company secured from it the privilege of using the water. On Sunday his son Frank. a boy about e years old broke the headgate in the city ditch so he could turn in the water that care from the water works. Yes terday F. Viault was arrested for us ing water he had not bought from the city and his son was arrested for breaking a headgata belonging to the city. The city's title to the water was % doubtful the recorder could not hold F. NiaUlt, and he will investiCate the of the gate breaking this afternoon.

THE FARMERS TRUST
Agent of the San Joaquin Association
 ill the City.

J. F. Meloche of Stockton, Cal. rep resenting the San Joaquin Producers Association was in town yesterday A good deal has been heard of this asso- ciation on the coast. It is in oppCsi-
 ton to the commission men of san Francisco and was formed for the pro- teCtion of the farmers and producers of the San Joaquin valley. It has been called the farmers trust by the com mission men, but MT Meloche says that Gppellation is wrong if it is meant that there is any intention of the farmers to control the product of the valley, though they want to control the mar Feting of it. and in that they are sue ceeding.
 The association has no representa- tives any where for the representative CT the middleman is one Of the ele- mcnts they want to eliminate from commercial transactions They. have though to have somebody to look after collections for them and for this pur- pose and for the transact ton or busi- ness which they cannot attend to themselves, they have selected w. II. Constable. That arrangement was made yesterday. Mir. Melcche says the association will not only be able to sell a little cheaper than the commis- sion men, but it will be able to supply a better class of products. Every bag CT box of produce will be guaranteed by the association and will bear the mark of the producer. so. that in case of defect the association will know what particular member will have to
 make it good.
 At this season of the year the asSo- citation is chiefly engaged in the dis tribution of potatoes, onions and beans. It has about wo-thirds of the stock of all three. It has possession of q million bushels of potatoes. while the commission men control about 300. 600 bushels. The commission men are keeping themselves posted regarding the movements Of Mr. Meloche. Soon after his arrival in town yesterday morning local merchants began re- ccivinS telegrams from San Francisco offering them potatoes at 4Oc a hundred The price has been 55c. The cut was met by MT. Meloche, who said that the association would not be undersoId by the commission men at any price.
 Mir. MeloChe left last night for Texas to see if he could arrange freight rates for points in that state. The associa- tion had been given a rate of 55c but at the request or the threat of the Denver & Rio Grande. the Chicago. &t St. Paul and other roads of the potato growing regions of the north it had been put back to the former rate of 75c. MT. Meloche will meet freight agents oi the Southern
