The employees of the boiler de-
partment Of the A. 7. & S. +. shops
presented r. W. Crawford. foreman
of that department. with a beauti-
full gold headed cane last Friday
noon as a token of their friendship
and esteem for him. Apprentice
Boilermaker Charles X. Gray made
the presentation speech as follow;
As this Is the last day you will
be with Us as our foreman. we wish
you TO understand that we appreci-
ate the treatment we have received
from you. and that We are very
sorry you are leaving U.s. To show
this feeling is sincere. we decided to
give you a present. hoping il will
please you and that il will help you
TO remember the time when you
were foreman of the La Junta
boiler shop. We assure you that
our best wishes GO with you for the
future and we trust that you Sill be
successful in any position you un-
dertake"
Mr.. Crawford responded with a
few well chosen words and passed the
cane around among the boys. telling
them he would have to take . trip
% Atlantic City to sport the cane in
true style. Bill Schneider. Charlie
Gray and Jack Delly wanted to
sport the cane around the shop and
do a cake walk. but the whistle
blew O'Clock and broke up I'll tAeir

been on exhibition in their show

THE Sugar CITY sugar beet fac
tory opened the campaign for
l905-O6 last Thursday. being the
first factory to start in Colorado.
A large crop. variously estimated at
from IS 900 to $1,000 tons. will be
worked into standard white granu-
lated sugar. and the campaign will
probably last for a period of at least
four months. The capacity of the
factory is 800 tons per day at pres
ent. but this is TO be increased next
year to 600 tons

THE nerve" that railroad cor
porations have and the pull" they
exercise with the State Board of
Equalization in Colorado has always
compelled our admiration. How
members of the board can eonscien-
tiusly place as low a valuation as
s.. 900 or 50 600 per mile upon rail-
roads in this state and call il one
third valuation is beyond US. We
know. and they know. that there
isn't a mile of track in Colorado
that is worth less than $4,000 per
mile. including rolling stock and
terminals. This is an old story. this
perennial howl Of the railroads. and
should carry but little weight as an
argument. nt.-Las Animas Leader.

The Fowler canning factory open
81 for the tomato campaign one day
last week. and is giving employment
at present to tventy-one persons
The Barlow Consolidated Trust
Company not only reduced the price
of tomatoes this year to % per ton.
but dismantled the La Junta can
ming factory soon after il was pur-
chased and got il out of the way.
In consequence there IS nothing par
ticularly strange in the fact Of a
reported shortage Of tomatoes this
year. Trust methods seem 10 be
more unpopular every day
in this favored land of ours. Most
people seem 10 have a liking for the
square deal policy Of our strenuous
president.

OWING to a misunderstanding in
interpreting the specifications for
the shaling Of the road between La
Junta and Rocky Ford. the contract
was not let at the meeting of the
board of construction held in Den
yer September 9th. and it was de-
cided to advertise for new bids. 1t
was also decided to change the
specifications. In the original speci-
fications the roadway was TO be six
teen feet wide and have a covering
of shale nine inches deep. The new
specifications call for roadway six
teen feet wide, eight inches deep in
the center and two inches deep on
the sides. With the funds available
this will permit of the roadway
being shaled for greater distance
than under the original specifea-
tions.

Los ANGELES is expending s2s

Los ANGELES is expending s23.-
0O0.0cc to secure a water supply.
and it is said to be one of the big
gest water propositions ever UNDER
taken by a city Of its size. The
water will be brought over noun
tains. valleys and plains for a dis
tance Of 2s0 miles. and the supply
will be sufficient for a city of
2.00 900 people. The amount to be
expended is one-seventh of the as
sessed valuation of the city. The
assessed valuation of La Junta is
about 500. 600. and if We expended
one-seventh of our valuation to Sc
cure a water supply we would have
a hundred thousand dollar plant.

that some day to secure an adequate
water supply. but. my countrymen,

The Farmers Vacation.

The ambitious tiller Of the soil, who
Is interested in his home and labor.
always finds plenty to occupy his at
tention. and is never more content
than when thus engaged. There are
other members Of the family. how
ever, whose labor Is more combining
and tlresome. On their account. if not
his own, they should seek some diver
sion occasionally. Too often we see
cases where that lack Of diversion
from the cares and trials has resulted
In insanity or nervous prostration.
With the younger members Of the
family "all work and no play makes
Jack dull boy" and invariably is
also the reason why he is only too glad
Of II chance to leave the farm when
occasion presents. The opposite is
equally deplorable. for all play and
no work is very liable to make him
worthless In after life. Those brought
up in our rural districts are not usual.

FORTUNES IN PRECIOUS GEMS.
Extravagant Display Of Jewels Made
by Women.

I EXtravagant Display OF Jewels Made
by Women.
The desire for jewels and the ex-
travagantly splendid displays now
made by women who delight In such
manifestations of wealth. says the
London Mail. are two Of the main
characteristics Of the power dress ex-
ercises over women in this luxurious
age.
A million sOvereigns sounds like an
Incredibly huge sum Of money to sink
in precious stones, but the gem caskets
Of some of our great ladies' represent
that value very closely. and it Is ac-
tually touched In a few notable In
stances.
Quite moderately wealthy young
married women do not consider their
catalogue Of jewels complete without
two or three tiaras, string of pearls
capable Of being measured by the yard,
stomacher brilliantly ablaze with
gems, a dog collar and numerous neck
lets, rings Of various cOlors to match
various gems, to say nothing Of
aigrettes Of diamonds, bracelets,
brooches and little ornaments by the
hundred.
One single necklet of pearls-only a
string that closely clasps the throat
has been known to cost 100000; tiara
swallows up any sum up to f25.OOO,
and even more when it contains prac-
tically priceless stones; one brooch
may easily represent $500, while n
stomacher can scarcely cost less.
Hence to be bedizened in gems that
represent 100000 is not a difficult task
for the woman who likes barbaric
display and can afford to indulge her
within.
The extravaganza this craving for
gems leads to is excused by some peo-
pie on the score that precious stones
are a sound investment, while the
dealers in imitation gems truthfully
aver that it fosters their trade.

Drunk or sober Sterrett knew things
about animals that all my years of
experience and study never taught me.
1t wasn't that he got on better with
them than most, for his own lions hat
ed him, which is unusual. But he had
some method Of interpreting their signs
that was beyond me. When the Tiger
Princess was going to give up one of
her old performers because he was
getting sulky and peevish, Sterrett
looked over the troupe and said:
THAT one Is all right, but the one
over in the corner will bear watch
ing"
"Why, the man talks like foo"
said the princess. That's Zulka. She's
the best actor I've got"
Sterrett laughed. Train an under
study" he advised. "I'll give Zulka
three weeks to retire from the stage.
She's going bad
lioness; one Of the best trick beasts
I've ever known and one Of the very
few that seemed to have genuine at
lection for the trainer. AS a rule, the
felines don't exhibit the softer emo
tons. They feel for man either indif-
ference or distaste. But this lioness
used to show signs Of pleasure when
her mistress entered the cage, and I've
seen her put her muzzle up against the
bars to fawn on the queen. Two weeks
after Sterrett's advice, to which we
paid little heed (that was when knew
less about him than l subsequently
learned) l saw the lioness caressing the
woman at the close Of the perform
nnce. AS the Tiger Princess entered
the cage the next day there was a
snarl and scream, ana she was down.
Zulka had her. Fortunately. some of
us were near. We beat the animals
off of course, some Of the other
beasts had to pitch on, seeing their
