HEAVY BUSINESS EXPECTED.

Vice President c. II. Schlacks of
the Denver and Rio Grande road said
yesterday that the management has
not considered the question of build
ing shops at Montrose, says the Den
yer Republican. A telegram from
that city stated yesterday that this
would be done, but Mr.. Schlacks said
that the matter has not been brought
up and he knows of no particular rea-
son at this time why it should be
undertaken. The first broad guage
train into Montrose from Grand juno
tion reached that point Monday and
the railroad management is quite as
well pleased as the citizens. 1t will
now be able to handle the immense
fruit business out of that region with
satisfaction. Cars can be loaded and
iced through to their destination. The
transferring from broad guage to
narrow guage cars was unsatisfactory
to most everybody.
The railroads are getting ready for
heavy shipping season that will come
about the middle of September. The
fruit, sugar beets, stock to be fed,
coal and other heavy freights will
not be choking the railway highways
as they did last season, The crops
are as large as last year and there is
reason to believe that the traffic is
going to be immense.
All of the roads are going to be
better prepared this year. The Colo
rado and Southern has about 1000
freight cars more than u had last
year and 25 new engines, 19 of which
are freight engines. The other roads
have made similar preparations. The
Denver & Rio Grande. the Midland
and other state roads have been
working to this same end.

LARGE AUDIENCE OUT.
a Splendid and Eloquent Address by
DIR. j. V. Combs, IA Lecturer of
National Reputation

The lecture at the Christian church
last night by j. V. Coombs was large
ly attended. Mr. Coombs is a very
interesting and forceful speaker. He
held his audience speu-bound for
more than an hour while he spoke of
the extravagant waste of both money
and mind. He said that the exorbi-
tant prices some people pay for wear
ing apparel. jewelry and such like
was waste Of money and sinful.
A New York multi-millionaire
spent million on a banquet for his
friends. This was a tremendous waste
of money He dwelt for some time
on this line of thought and clearly
showed that there was needless ex-
penditure of money. In a very force
ful way he compared the amounts
spent in America for churches and
missions with the amount spent for
liquor, tobacco, chewing gum and
dogs, and judging from the amount
of money spent. one pup was worth
ten preachers.
He then spoke of the waste of mind
He related how that man in London
caught four fleas in cage. He had
tiny silver wagon made and gold
harness. He spent weeks and weeks
trying to harness those fieas and
train them to draw the silver wagon.
AT last he succeeded and all London
went wild over the Accomplishment.
But what had he done? Nothing. a
great waste of mind which If divert
ed in the proper channels would have
brought blessings to the human fam
lily.
The last part of the lecture was
taken up with Incidents of the San
Francisco earthquake. many of the
horrors of which he witnessed. Mr..
Coombs left on No. for a lecture
tour through the eastern states.
Dr. Coombs is an evangelist. lee
turer and author of note and is GER
tainly man of extraordinary ability.
Those who heard him last night were
richly entertained.

to Americans, Russians get a shine

worst of all. They get a shine only
once a week. Even when otherwise

The Transparent Gown.

A decidedly new frill has crept into
society. A few years ago it would
have been frowned down as bad taste,
but this season 1t is the thing of all
things. 1t is the smartest and newest
frill of all.
This new fashion is that Of the
transparent gown. The diaphonous
dress of summer has been brought
forward into winter, and the prospects
are that 1t will reign for a long season
at least. It is quite different from the
former thin gowns.
Very thin taffeta, Of the kind called
chiffon, or gauze taffeta, or taffeta
null, is made up into dinner and after
noon gowns. The style Of the making
Of the gown is perfectly plain, and the
material is 30 thin that you can see
through 1t.
II is very much like the silk null
summer dress, which is quite familiar
to all, It is very thin, and you can see
the lingerie plainly through it. It is
necessary to wear a very handsome
under waist, and to trim the same
with ribbons OF color to show through
in smart way.

You'll find your happiness complete.
