The first autumnnl meet of the Canon
City Driving Association will be held
at the fair grounds the second week in
September and will last for three days.
1t is the intention CT those in charge of
the arrangement to make it first-class
racing event, in fact, they have drafted
it upon far more ambitious scale than
any thing hitherto attempted here and
there is but little doubt of the fulfill
ment of their plans, as they have al
ready receieved much encouragement
from the public at large, which is the
best possible augury of success.
1t has been decided to offer 5000 in
prizes; of considerable value having
been arranged for nearly every event
known to turfmen, and some of the
best track horses of southern and
western Colorado will be here to COM
pete for them
The committee in charge of the meet
has received assurances from horse
men at Grand Junction and other
towns on the western slope that they
will be here and will enter their horses
for the racing, which will be of such q
character as to interest every admirer
OF speed and endurance in horsefesh.
THE Rocky Ford racing meet takes
place the first week in September and
it is believed that many of the horses
that contest in the racing there will be
brought to this city to compete for the
purses offered by the managers of the
local driving association. II properly
conducted. and the character of the
men in charge is a guarantee that it
will be generously patronized by our
people and will be a sporting and finan-
cial success. A meeting of representa-
tive business men was held last Tues
day night at which time the following
committee was selected to have general
supervision over all matters connected
with the coming meet D. E. Gibson,

Messrs Preston and Love
land have had several parties
here the past week looking
over their lands, and all ex-
press themselves as we'll
pleased with the soil and coun-
try. These men were actual
settlers who will open up the
land and be a benefit to
the country. This locally is
particularly fortunate in the
classof purchasers the Ameri-
can Bank and Trust Company
are bringing in. Much land in
other sections is being sold
to spectators who hold it for
a raise in price and prevent
it's being opened up.
Mr.. Stowe, of Spirit Lake,
has purchased 1920 acres and
is now here planning to clear
IL. He is accompanied by his
grandson Alvin Clark of Madi-
son, who has also purchased a
section. Thomas Cook, of
Milnerville, Iowa, who owns a
half section in section 2l-48-6,
has been here the past week
looking after his interests,
and W. Vanderberg of the
same place has been looking
over some tracts and will prob
ably close a deal in the near
future. Thos. Nichols, from
Westerfeld, has bought, as
has also a Mr.. Louis, of Mont
gomery, Iowa. These sales
represent a large amount of
land that will soon be changed
from it's present useless state
to a productive one.
Among the settlers who
have already arrived, there
are SIX families OF eight child
rem each. This is doing some
thing for the population of the
county. ut means more schools
and roads and a better country
every time a section of the
county is sold to one who will
improve it, and it means to
the purchaser as good a farm
as he can get in the United
States when he gets it i'm
proved.

CAUSED BY A. s. & /. r, R. r.

VIM. Burke, a woodsman, was
killed by an A. S. & I. r. logging
train in the yards of the company at
Nash yesterday. The man was in
toxlcated and probably was trying
to get back to the woods where he
had been working. He attempted
several times to board the train but
the brakeman seeing his condition
ordered him off each time. After
the train started he tried it again
despite the former warnings and
was caught beneath the wheels. A
trainman saw him and ran to lis as
sistance and succeeded in drawing
him out once but by his struggles he
pulled away and went bodily beneath
the trucks. Both legs were severed
and it is believed that his back was
broken.
AS soon as possible after the acct
dent DR.. Rhinehardt of Ashland was
summoned by telephone but the man
lived only twenty minutes and was
dead before he arrived. Judge War
den and Deputy sheriff Runkle were
theh called and went down from
here and impaneled jury to hold an
inquest. The jury consisted of well
known residents of Nash who re-
leased the railroad from all blame
deciding that death was due to the
carlessness of the deceased. The
body was brought to this city by
VIM. Olson and placed in the city
morgue. A brother of the dead
man who works in one of the Hines
camps was notified and he came at
once to the city. but has not decided
as yet what will be done with the
remains.
The deceased was ,about forty
years old and came to this section
from Michigan several years ago.
