One of the pleassntest social affairs
of the past week was the surprise party
at the residence OF Mr.. and Mrs. A.
II Seely, 502 Pike avenue, last Tues
day night in commemroation of Mrs.
5eely's birthday anniversary. Prepa-
rations for the event we're made under
the supervision of Mrs. Maddy and
were conducted so quietly As not to
awaken the suspicion OF Mrs. Seely
who was both surprised and gratitied
at the large number OF guests which
assembled to do her honor. A pleas
ing program of entertainment was
provided and the most delicious re-
freshments served
Everybody present enjoyed the oc-
casion and the wish was expressed by
the guests that their hostess might
celebrate many more anniversaries of
her natal day under an equally pleas
ant environment

The Canon City Record
Two Candidates
For Governor.

Canon City may have two candidates
for governor this fall.
Governor Peabody is making every
possible effort to be renominated and
may succeed in getting the place
though he will have plenty OF opposi-
tion.
Jos. H. Maupin has announced his
willingness to accept the nomination
on the Democratic ticket and has his
emissaries out lining up the boys over
the state.
Judge NJ. s Bailey would probably
deny that he is candidate but IL a
deadlock occurred and he was found to
be the only available man he would
undoubtedly sacrifice his personal
interests and his present job for the
good Of his party Quite number OF
Democrats favor Bailey.
Both Maupin and Bailey have been
regular party candidates before.
1t would make an interesting home
fight to have both parties lead by Cam
on men.

In giving its many reasons for the change the Bee
says of itself:

will be whether the Trusts shall dominate this country
snap their fingers the laws of the and strangle
further needed legislation at its BIRTH whether the
people shall hold these syndcated infamies in check

Fine Picnic.

The Sunday School picnic of Trinity

Thursday was a most successful affair
in every respect. There was a large
attendance and everybody present had
a delightful time. The younger peo-
pie were taken out to the picnic grouds
on hay racks; the more sedste MEM
bers OF the party preferring more
conventional and easy means of con-

dinner the merry makers devoted
themselves to romping and athletic
games Of various kinds; pitching
horseshoes being the favorite game
among the men. 1t was an occasion
long to be remembered by those having
the good fortune to be present.

The Bridges VIII Not be Elevated.

Washington, Jan. 26.-Secretary
Root has decided a question involving
several million dollars, growing out
of the application to compel the ele-

legheny river connecting Pittsburg
and Allegheny. The secretary denied
these applications. In his decision
the secretary points out that to grant
the applications, which were opposed
by the cities of Pittsburg and Alle-
gheny, would involve the practical re-
building of some of the bridges, an
extensive change of street grades and
the whole would cost several million
dollars.
