Canon Cherries In
In Car Load Lots

THE Green Hill Orchards shipped the
first car of cherries ever sent east out
Of Canon City, on Thursday of last
week and the returns show they went
through in good condition and sold
well. The Early Richmond cherry has
become SO large a crop here that our
local markets can no longer handle
them and some other outlet had to be
secured.
On Saturday second car was shipped.
The net returns TO the growers here
from both cars were at the rate of 81. 40
per crate, which sum is quite decided
advance over the ruling price on cher

DR.. BANCR0FTS HOME
FOR C0hSUMPTIvES

The tabernacle was we'll filed last
Sunday afternoon by interested audi
ence which assembled to hear about
the free home which DR.. Bancroft pro-
poses TO establish at Salida for INDECENT
consumptives. The object of DR.. Ban
croft is to found an Institution for the
benefit of people who are in the first
and second stages OF the disease who
are without money to pay for medical
treatment elsewhere and the benevol-
ence of the native which inspires 1t
should assure its success.
II is certainly commendabie
charity to provide comfortable home
and give medical attention to those
that are sick and destitute Of funds
and we hope its promoter will receive
public cooperation in his endeavor to
bring it about. The home will be
nearly, IL not quite, self-supporting as
its beneficiaries will be expected to
contribute TO that end by doing such
work as their physical condition will
permit. 1t will be located on besuti-

ries can be put right into the hands of
the retail dealers in these cities and
the very top market price procured.
By these arrangements it is possible
to ship our cherries to these points and
secure the top price, making the net
returns TO the grower here little bet
ter than the local price. and at the
same time relieve the glutted condition
of the market
THE RECORD has always commended
THAT we could not overdo the produc-
tion of fruit here, and the last two
years experience goes to prove the
correctness of our contention. We are
now sending apples to the Atlantic
and to the Pacific. This season has
demonstrated that we can put our
strawberries into Kansas City, and
now the greatest market in America
has been opened up for our cherries.

PORTLAND OUTPUT
BIGGER THAN EVER

The Portland cement plant started
up in full blast last Monday and its
output is larger than ever before. The
company recently built number OF
new kilns, four of which were put in
operation few days ago and the 9TH
ers will be started soon. The storage
bins which were wrecked last May
with such disastrous consequences,
have been reconstructed of armored
concrete and will stand great strain.
More .han fifty tons of iron and steel
are being imbedded within the sup
porting walls and ii is believed that a
collapse. such as occurred a few months
ago, is impossible. The capacity Of the
plant has lately been increased to 500
tons day. and its weekly production
now is 10, 500 barrels. 1t is said to be
the largest cement plant in the United
States.

Chas. Lynn. who is employed pas ,
blacksmith at the +. 4 O. G. railroad
shops, was seriously hurt in conse-
quence of jumping of Cripple Greek
passenger train near the water tank
last Monday morning. Lynn had been
in the habit of riding from the depot
to the shops, where all outward bound
trains have been accustomed to stop
ping, thus saving himself the exertion
Of tiresome walk OF nearly half a
mile. The train that Lynn boarded
last Monday morning was special
which was being sent up to the dis
trict for the purpose Of bringing down
the Epworth League excursionists
later in the day and It did not make
the usual stops and this fact led to his
undoing. 1t was running at the rate
Of fully twenty five miles an hour
when the shops were reached and
realizing that the customary halt
would not be made Lynn concluded to
jump off. q decision which he put into
execution with disastrous results.
His face. hands and legs were fear
fully bruised and lacersted and one of
his eyes was closed from a confusion
ION the forehead. He was found In an
unconscious condition by some OF his
associates and physician summoned
to attend him after which he Was con-
veyed to his home on Lincoln street,
Lincoln Park, where he was made as
comfortable as the nature Of his
wounds would permit At first some
doubt was expressed as to his recovery,
but no uniayorsble symptoms have
developed during the last few days and
the fears have gradually dissipsted. II

VALIDITY OF FRANCHISE
 IS BEING QUESTIONED
DOES CHANGE FROM "ExcLUD- ING" TO EXCLUDING MAKE A MATERIAL DIFFERENCE IN THE ORDNANCE!

A special meeting of the council has been called for tomorrow afternoon to consider the Hamaker-Titcomb fran chise The reason the ordinance was laid over at the last meeting of the council was on account of the original copy of the ordinance as passed by the council having been lost. and thereby hangs a tale.
 City Clerk Sames claims he turned over the original ordinance to the Dis patch for publication, and so far it has never been returned and cannot be found.
 The original ordinance. as passed by the council, so it is claimed by number of the councilmen, read in paragraph 4, excluding the value of the franchise" and it was published including the value of the franchise" which means that in case the city should decide to buy the plant at the expiration of twenty years it will have to purchase the franchise back ac- cording to the way the ordinance was published
 There seems to have been no car bon copy kept of the ordinance and the original is lost.
 City Attorney Lockwood is looking into the legality of the matter for the city, and Cass & Graham are looking into it for the Hamaker-Titcomb peO- pie. and will fender their opinions to- morrow.
 A representative of the Interna- tional-American interviewed several attorneys in regard to the matter and they gave it as their poinion that if the change was material the fran chise was void. The law in regard to the matter is shall be granted as filed and published"

He is very suscept- ible to the influence of liquor, and what would be an ordinary drink for the average man will floor him com pletely. He gets drunk every time he has the price, after paying his small living expenses, and as often Jesse Fisher pays the fine, the Indian being a most valuable man about the corral, and one who can be implicitly trusted to obey any order given him.

The case was tried yesterday, but the judge reserved judgment until today. IL appeared from the evidence of Mo Dougal that a man named Townsend, who was with the party on the night the fight occurred, did the cutting, while he was merely bystander. MT.
