Dr.. ,. S. Hartmann. Of chIe.so

A leading authority on climatother-
opy in recent work sums up his opin-
ion as to the climatic advantage for
the treatment of tubercular patients
in the following remark: The best
climate for a consumptivc is the one
which permits him to remain out of
doors more and longer than any
where else" Many members OF the
medical profession would add to the
above. that in most cases OF tuber-
culosis dry air and a modt -ately high
altitude arc important features of an
ideal climate.
In the opinion of the writer. Canon
City enjoys as many OF the requisites
OF good climate for those afflicted
with pulmonary tuberculosis, and 9th
er pulmonary diseases. as any place
that he is acquainted with and those
cases that he has had occasion TO
recommend there for their health
have pursued a uniformly favorable
course
II has been the writer's privilege
to see enough of Canon City il dif-
feren, seasons OF the year TO learn
how Justly il enjoys a reputation for
law and order, the higher grade OF
its citizens. its civic pride, its places
of worship, its schools. its superior
business houses. the good fellowship
of its people. its beautiful environ
menis. It's uncxcelled climate and its
justly established reputation as a
health resort.
DR.. B. p. Anderson.
DR.. b. 7. Anderson the noted ling
specialist of Colorado Springs in a
personal letter to the publisher says:
II have for many years advised pa

City especially those cases requiring
a lower attitude and a warmer air
than this.
II do not hesitate to say that the
climate of Canon City is as good as
any and far superior to many other
points even in Colorado, for the aver
age tubercular patient"
DIR. J. B. Murphy.
Dr. J. b. Murphy a well known
Chicago physician and surgeon (Ioo
State STD writes the publisher: For
a number of years il has been my GUS
tom to send patients suffering with
tuberculosis to Canon City. The alb

wARsHIPs ON STORMY SEA
Great Vessels Are Often Carried
Away and Lost When Hur-
ricanes RAGE.

Vice Admiral Rojestvensky's fleet,
in its delay in sailing for it's point of
attack, bears some resemblance to the
Spanish Armada. The comparison is
strengthened, says the New Yorl,
World oil recent date, by the report
from Annoy that a typhoon had dam
aged the Russian ships and scattered
the smaller OF them, for two-thirds of
the "Ingincible' Armada OF 1870 ships
We're lost in storms.
The Spanish and Russian nayies are
nc the only ones that have suffered
from the natural perils of the sea.
On the night OF November 26, 1903.
seven British warships, carrying up
ward of 1000 men and 47O guns, were
lost on the coast OF England. In Octo-
Der. 1880. 10 British warships, mount
ing 1872 guns. were lost in a hurricane
in the West Indies.
In March, 1889, three American and
three German warships were driven
ashore at Apia, Samoa, and lost with
about $50 men.
Aside from these instances of the
loss of several vessels in a particular
storm there are innumerable instances

SAN PEDRO BaEAkWATER.
Stuperdous Piece of Work That Is
Being Done by the United
States Government.

On the coast of southern California,
about 600 miles south of San Francisco,
lies the port OF San Pedro-a port, that
is, when the weather happens TO be
good, says the Search Light. For five
years past the United States govern
inent has been engaged on a stupon-
dous piece of work, whose purpose is
to make San Pedro a safe and capa-
cious harbor refuge. To effect this
and afford secure anchorage for vessels
OF all sizes. the inner harbor needed to
be dredged and an outer harbor con-
structed. The latter is being lone by
the building of an immense breakwa-
ter. second to none in size, a huge wall
OF rock "a feet high, 100 feet wide at
base and 20 feet On top. and extend
ing two-thirds Of a mile into the ocean.
This work, begun in 1900. is now we'll
under way. During the past year
l,6O0, 900 tons of stone were laid. rough
stone being used for the bottom and
we'll smoothed ones for the top, laid
in regular courses. but without NOR
tar. the purpose being to give it a we'll
finished look. A double-track trestle
extends outward, built on piles and
1l.00o feet long. On this is a railroad,
extending inward to the quarries
where 1000 tons of stone are shipped
daily.
There are great cranes along the
%trestle, which seize the blocks of gran.
lte-those of the su~perstructure weigh
ing eight to ten tons-and lower them
to their allotted places. The compile
tion Oh this work, which will cost
about $4,000. 900, will give San Pe,iro
Indirectly Los Angeles. a harboi
of refuge OF I'VE one mile square. and
deep enough for the largest vessels.

scheme in operation. During tina
time the income from the business
covered not onw this outlay, but alse
me running expenses, the rebates o.

S6.0a0. 000 donated to temperance SO
'~ieries, and left a surplus OF 1886. 900
IN the year 1901 the receipts from the
tratic were ISL. 100, 900 and the current
expenses were 9b2. 500. 900. leaving {
net profit OF $4,000 In addition
the tax on liquor returned sos. $50. 900
The years sales from the government
stores amounted to 1873 COG. 900 gallons
The moral effect of the monopoly Is
less apparent. In 1899 there were TO-
3Si government stores for the retail
sale OF liquors. and there were discov-
cred 9,203 Illicit stores or speak
easies.' The peasant members OF the
conference in the district of Saratcti
declared that there is no apparent de-
~rease of drunkenness. and that, as
,here are no drinking saloons. the
a0Dle get drunk openly in the
.~sreets: that the secret and illegal sale
II liquors is extending. and that the
rural communities have lost h con
siderable revenue formerly derived
from saloon licenses.
