In Christ's Name.
During the dark days OF the Amer
lean civil war; after the two opposing
armies had been watching each other
for months upon the opposite banks
of the Potomac river, there came a
night Of strange song, which will al
ways be remembered by those who
were participants in the scene. The
moon was shining brightly. The sur
face of the river was rejecting the
lights not only of the campfres of the
two armies, but also the starry lights
from above. The only sounds to be
heard We're the going forth of the relief
guards and the call Of the sentries,
",Alrs we'll along the Potomac" While
the stiffness of death seemed to pre-
vail, northern soldier was writing TO
his mother AS he wrote he became
very homesiclS for the sight of the old
farm. He softly began to sing the
words which John Howard Payne
wrote when he was a helpless, sick,
friendess, lonely exile He sang the
words all Americans have sung a hun
bred times. As the homesick boy sang
the men in the next tent took up the
refrain. Then the song went from
company to company, regiment to regi-
ment, brigade to brigade. until it leap
Cd across the river, and the Confedcr-
ate army sang it as well as the Fed
eral army. Then the war hounds,
which had been growing in rage and
showing their white teeth and Juggling
at their chains, turned and went into
their kennels and lay down to listen
to the music.
As thatone homesick boys song found
its echo in the song Of his company,
and in the song Of his regiment, and in
the song Of his army, and in the song
of the great host which were lying
upon the opposite side of Nirginia's
bank, shall not our Christ's song in
spire others to sing? one Bird can
make whole forest sound with inspir-
Ing songs. Shall not we inspire those
In our homes and stores and churches
to sing? Sing in Christ's name Sing
as the song birds sing. Sing as the
psalmist bids us sing. Let every
thing that hath breath praise the
Lord" Sing, Sing. Triumphantly
and everlaStingly sing. Sing, for the
time of the singing of all Christians as
well as Of birds has come,
Our lives are songs God writes the words
And we set them to music at leisure,
And the song is sad or the song is glad
AS we choose to fashion the measure,
We must write the song whatever the
words
Whatever its rhyme or meter,
And If It is sad we must make ID glad.
And If sweet we must make it sweeter

No Snoring.

Postmaster General Payne the other
day told a story Of something that he
once saw in a Milwaukee courtroom.
Through the kindness and tact Of the
judge the court crier was saved from
d fine.
Il one day attended" said Mr., Payne,
"a session Of the court ut which this
judge presided. Tie court crier was a
very old man; he had served with fdcl-
fly for many years, but age was be-
ginning now TO tell on him lie fell
asleep while ! was in the courtroom
and in a little while. he was snoring
"Thn snoror Of course disturbed the
proceedings Of the court but The judge
showed great tact in intHTupting
without embarrassing. the crier; ....
"'Crier Jones' he said IN loud voice
-Crier Jones. some one is snoring
THE cricr awakened with a start
and jumped to his feet
"'Sllcnce" be exclaimed There
must BE no snoring in the courtroom,
and be glared fcrcely al about him"

pOrtunities..

One of the popular features of
Dodd's Commercial College is the
night school. 1t is conducted princi-
pally for those who wish to take .
course in either business or shorthand, i,
or to improve their psnmanship or
knowledge of common branches, who
are necessarily engaged during the
day.
Many people find this about the only
opportunity for improvement and it
will help many young man to a bet
ter earning capacity.
The same branches are taught and
by the same instructors in the evening
as in the day classes and every effort is
made to help the student along as fast
as he cares to go.
The college is well equipped with in
structors and apparatus and the terms
are within the reach Of all.

suits and orchardists are looking for
ward to an apple crop Of exceptional
character this fall. The trees have suf-
fered less from the ravages of insects
than common and there has been no
arrest in the development of the fruit
on that account. The excellent quail
ity of the apple crop will enable the
Canon City grower to obtain the high
est prices afforded by the markets at
selling time.
Those of our readers who are inter-
ested in great industry can find much
to both entertain and instruct by in
vestigating the local fruit business. 1t
is larger and more complex propo-
sition than most people imagine and is
capable of an almost indefinite expan-
sion. A little study OF the subject will
convince the average man that fruit
growing has been advanced by scien-
tific horticulture to fine art and that
the utmost financial success can only
be attained by the orchardist who gives
the matter intelligent, painstaking con-
sideration.
With the splendid opportunity with
in their grasp for making notable ex-
hibit of orchard products at the forth
coming county fair the fruit growers
of Lincoln Park and Fruitmere will be
guilty of a dereliction of duty if they
fail to see to it that their respective
localities are not properly represented
with display of the choicest speei-
mems of their horticulture next month.
Canon City fruit is the most famous
in Colorado and that fact should be
demonstrated by big display at the
coming tair.

fortunate industrial conditions brough,
about by the conflict between labor and
capital. Not only have these fruits
helped to supply the demand of Dem
fver, Pueblo. Colorado Springs and
Cripple Greek, but they have invaded
distant states and territories and are
opening up new markets for Canon City
ranchers in Kansas, New Mexico and
Texas
Although our climate is not eminent.
ly adapted to their growth some of the
finest peaches to be found in q months
travel are being brought to town by
Canon City growers this year, and, we
doubt, whether in size, appearance or
iuiciness they can be surpassed by the
choicest specimens Of the most re-
nowned peach orchards of Maryland,
New Jersey, Missouri or Michigan.
The Albertas and Early Crawfords
now being marketed are much larger
than usual, and their flavor and color
leaves nothing to be desired in round
ing out our ideas Of perfection.
The zenith of the plum crop will
probably be reached this week and
several hundred crates Of them will be
shipped by local dealers to points in
the eastern and northern parts of the
state before its close. The crop of the
harder varieties Of plums is more than
ordinarily generous this year through
out the state, and the supply is in e1-
cess of the demand, which has greatly
cheapened their price in the markets.
Owing to its peculiar climate and
environment the Grand junction
grower is able to begin the shipment
Of his plums a week or ten days in ad-
vance of the Canon City orchardist
and has him at . great disadvantage so
far as prices are concerned.
The winter varieties Of apples are
coloring up nicely and they promise to
be larger and of more uniformity as to
size than WAS the case last season.
The rainfall OF the last five or six
weeks has been productive of good re-

A GOOD PROPERTY.
The Silver Queen Rich in High
Grade Contains Silver,
Gold and Copper.

B. D. Smith returned home last
Saturday night after month or six
weeks visit to the Silver Queen mining
property on Treasury Mountain, in
San Juan county. seven or eight miles
north of Silverton. Mr.. Smith has
been connected with the ownership Of
the Silver Queen for more than twenty
years, and his recent trip was his four
teenth annual visit to that section of
the state. He brought back with him
some of the most attractive ore speci-
mems ever seen in this city. They were
taken from the main chute in the Silver
Queen and contain high values in gold !,
silver, lead and copper. An assay from
one of them shows two hundred ounces
of silver to the ton and twenty-three
and eighty -eight hundredths ounces of
gold, valued at S577.6O ton. Another
piece assays 1878 in silver to the ton.
There is an immense quantity of ore
in sight, and there is no doubt that
Mr.. Smith and his associates have
splendid proposition.
A railroad is being built by Otto
Mears from the D. & r. G. main line
to Aninas Fork. within three miles
Of the property, and plans have re-
Gently been adopted for the erec-
tion of a mill midway between the mine
and railroad terminus, the two TO be
connected by tramway, which will
enable the mining company to place its
product upon the cars by haul of only
mile and half. That the Silver
Queen is good piece of property is
evidenced by the fact that within the
last few years t35 900 worth of ore has
been sold which averaged more gold to
the ton than the product of the Port
land mine at Cripple Greek.
The Silver Queen Company is con-
sidering offers from two eastern syndi-
Gates for the transfer OF the ownership
of its property. One Of them is from a
party Of Chicago gentlemen which
offered $3.50 900 for the mine, Of which
500. 900 would be in cash and the re-
mainder in the capital stock OF the pro-
posed new organization. The other
offer, which is quite as alluring, Is from
an indianapolis banker.

LOTS OF FRUIT.
The Horticultural Products of the
Canon City District will this
Year Exceed Anything in
its History.

To people unacquainted with the
volume of the transactions in fruit in
Canon City visit to the office Of the
Fremont Fruit Growers Association
or to the storehouses of any of the in
dependent dealers, at this season Of
the year would be a revelation, and
would arouse their curiosity az tc
where it all goes to. It's fine quality
would cause surprise and the convic-
tion would result that the Arkansas
valley is not exceeded by California,
or, indeed, by any section of the coun-
try in the character of its orchard pro-
ducts.
The cherries, plums, apples, grapes
in fact most of the fruits and berries
grown here arejustly celebrated andsare
destined to still wider fame as the
market for their consumption is ex.
tended. Canon City fruits. especially
cherries, have received a deserved
recognition at the Worlds Fair at St
Louis, being larger and of superior
color and flavor to those shown by any
other community. Our apples, peaches
pears and plums have also received
much attention and won their need OF
praise from pomologists in competition
with the best of their kind from the
most favored horticultural sections OF
the Union.
The current summer has been one OF
exceptional prodigality in every variety
of orchard and garden products, 80 far
as the Arkansas valley is concerned
and many tons of the finest fruits and
berries known to the temperate zone
have found their way to the cities and
have commanded remunerative prices
for their growers in spite of the un.

two at Elko last week and in
formed the Independent that he
is a candidate for United States
Senator to succeed Stewart. In
regard to the silver question he
has the following to say:
This battle should be fought
on scientific principles and con-
stitutional law. If the people of
Nevada will elect me a represen-
tative of them to the United
States Senate, / will devote my
entire time and efforts to restore
silver to its Constitutional money
functions. / will make the con-
test both by bill in Congress to
repeal the unconstitutional sill
yer demonstration enactments,
not laws, and by suit in the Su-
preme Court of the United States
to have the said silver demoneti-
zation enactments judicially de-
clared unconstitutional and
therefore void. This fight
should be made and if the people
will place me in the position
where l can fight, l will unfinch-
ingly enter upon the contest"
