Cottonwood crack, until now 1t con-
trolls all Of the land on both sides OF
the stream for a distance OF four or
five miles from the mouth. which
makes 1t the owner of something like
five sixths of all the water it carries
into the river. These options are
being taken up as fast as they ex-
pire, as it is known that renewal
cannot be obtained upon the same
favorable terms. In fact it is believed
that If the city permits the options to
terminate without doing anything 1t
will cost it fully twice as much to
purchase the necessary property right
there as it will if taken before their
expiration. There are two reservoir
sites on the creek, one on the Smith
ranch. near its mouth, and the other
about four miles up stream. The first
of these sites was designated by the
u. S. Geological Survey, and an i'm
mense body of water could be i'm
pounded by the expenditure OF a few
thousand dollars. A report will be
made to the City Council on the pro-
posed new source of water supply,
based upon the deductions of Hydro
grapher Hiram Phillips next Monday
night. II is believed that the water
can be piped here from Cottonwood
creek. a distance Of nearly forty miles,
for something like $350.000. To pur-
chase the required property rights a.
long the creek will cost a little more
than $4,000.

STUDY THE LABEL

characterized by an effervescence of
fun, maliciousness having but little to
do with 1t.
i Halloween was at one time the
religious festival, but in the course
of time its observance has under
gone a great change, so much so, in
fact, that its original Significance has
been lost sight OF. 1t has within re-
cent years become one of the big
events of the calendar. and the young
people of Canon City in common with
those of the rest of the country, are
determined to make. the most of it.
The members of Miss Grace Dale's
Sunday School class were entertained
by, one OF their number, Miss Pearl
Taylor, at, a delightful Halloween
party at her home, on Greenwood
avenue Wednesday night. The twenty
maidens tried their fortunes in vari-
GUS ways, one being a magic salad
in which each found written revela-
ton of her future attached to a spray
of parsley, The electric lights were
dimmed by pumpkin colored shades,
and jack o. lanterns added to the
weird effect The dining room was
beautifully decorated. A jack o. Ian
tern stood in the center of the table,
with bouquets of yellow and white
chrysanthemums on either side. From
the chandelier, pumpkin colored
streamers tretched to each plate,
guarded by a funny little manikin-
a Halloween souvenir. At each plate
was numbered envelope and places
were found by drawing numbers. The
envelopes were found to contain pic
lures of the future husbands. the
maiden's fortune being written on the
back of each picture. Doughnuts.
cookies, sweet cider, grapes. nuts. con-
fectionery and apples were served.
Music. and ghost stories were other
features of the entertainment.

NOTED EvANGELISTS
COMING TO CANON

DR.. j. W. Mahood. assisted by Rev.
J w. Potter, commences a series of
evangelistic meetings In the Methodist
Episcopal church of this city on Mo-
vember 18th. Cuts of these Christian
workers appear in this issue. Last
season he was in some of the best
churches of California, Note what a
California paper says of him:
REV. Mr.. Mahood is one of the
most satisfactory leaders in agrees
sive evangelfstic work that has ever
come to the coast. His work lies
along solid and effective lines and not
in erratic effort He is eloquent, but
his eloquence does not run away with
his logic, or obscure the main purpose.
which is to turn men to better life.
Those who attend these meetings will
and themselves in an atmosphere OF
sincerity and broad gauge effort for
the betterment of the community"

No. at II 30
The trip was for the purpose of In
specting the volume and quality of
the water emptied into the Arkansas
river by Cottonwood Creek, believed
to be the only available stream from
which the people of Canon City can
obtain an adequate supply Of noun
tain water for domestic uses, and was
eminently satisfactory. Half OF the
party left the train at Coaldale and
the remainder at Cotopaxi. Carriages
we're in waiting at both places and the
excursionists were driven to Smith S
ranch at the mouth of Cottonwood
creek, where an examination was
made of the quantity and character
|of the water which II is proposed to
pipe to this city for drinking and
household purposes. There was fully
fifteen cubic feet Of water In the
creek, and 1t was colorless and taste
less, being free from any mineral or
vegetable matter SO far as could be
determined without chemical analy-
sis being made. The visitors were as
sured that the flow at the present
time was considerably less than nor
NAL, in fact, the volume Of water en-
ptied by Cottonwood creek into the
river during the months of October
and November was less than at any
ether season of the year--in short
fifteen cubic feet a second was its
minimum flow. 1t is computed that
Cottonwood creek is capable at all
times OF the year OF supplying sum-
cient quantity OF water for a com
munity of $4,000 people.
The members Of Mayor Coulter's
party we're surprised and delighted
with what they saw at Cottonwood
creek this morning and will. no doubt
support any reasonable proposition
looking to the matter Of procuring q
supply OF water for Canon City from
that source.

GERMAN TRADE GROWS.
Exports to the United States Increase
Steadily.

BERLIN, July 14-Oficial figures
just completed by the American consul
general in Berlin, A. NJ. Thackara. for
the year ending June 80, 1906, show
that Germany's exports to the United
States in the last II months were the
greatest on record. The total is $780,
100000, the increase over the previous
year being about s2O,OOO,OOO. This is
the rich and growing trade which the
kaiser is so anxious to preserve and
foster through a commercial treaty.
The keenest among the American
observers here, while favoring a re-
ciprocity arrangement, cannot help
thinking that Germany will prefer to
let things remain on the present basis
indefinitely rather than risk smashing
the bumper figures to which her
American trade has now attained.

DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED

By local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional rem
edies. Deafness is caused by an in
famed condition Of the mucuous lin
ing of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube is inflamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing,
and when it is entirely closed, deaf
ness is the result, and unless the in
flammation can be taken out and this
tube restored to its normal condition,
hearing will be destroyed forever; nine
cases out Of ten are caused by Catarrh,
which is nothing but an inf1amed con-
dition of the mucuous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of deafness Caused by
catarrh) that cannot be cured by

lars free.
