when Musicians Were Scarce.

In these days of conservatories and
music schools, when each house has Its
piano or Its organ. to say nothing of
devotees to the cornet, violin and ban
10, 1t seems strange to assert that there
ever was time when musicians were
in demand, yet such was really the
case. "In the fifteenth century" says
Mr.. Henry NJ. Brooks In his odd
en- Time Music" musicians were so
scarce in England that they were Inn
pressed by government order, as in
more recent times seamen had to suf-
fer In like manner. Henry VIII. also
issued warrants for the impressment
Of children with good voices for the
choirs of the cathedrals, and In Eliza
beth's time children with the proper
qualification for her majesty's choirs
were taken from their parents without
any compensation being given to the
latter"

Meirhinr Common Air.

The weight of air has often been test
ed by compressing it in receptacles by
the air pump. That it really has weight
when SO compressed Is shown by the
fact that the weight of the vessels is
increased slightly by filling them with
compressed air and that such vessels
become specifically Fighter as soon
as the air contained In them Is ex-
hausted. Many elaborate experiments
on the weight Of air have proved that
one cubic foot weighs $50 grains, or
something less than one and quarter
ounces. The above experiment on the
weight of air is supposed to be made
at the surface of the earth with the
temperature at 80 degrees F. Heated
air, or air at high elevations. Is much

wctlser Mary Teresa and the Cross q
tho Legion of Honor.
Some years ago In a city In France
all the soldiers were drawn up on the
plaza. A woman IN the habit Of char
ify was called out In front OF the gov
ernor general. and this Ii what he said.
Mother Mary Teresa, when you
were twenty years OF age you received
wound from q cannon ball while as
slsting one Of the wounded on the
field at Balakiaya. In 1850 the shell
from a mitraillcnsc laid you PROSTATE
In the front ranks on the battlefield OF

wounds. Such deeds of herOism you
crowned a few weeks ago with one OF
the most heroic actions which history
records. A grenade fell upon the am
buiancc which was under your charge.
You took up the grenade In your arms;
you smiled upon the wounded who
looked at you with feelings Of dIsmay;
you carried 1t a. distance OF eighty me-
ters. On laying II down you noticed
that II was going to burst. You threw
yourself on the ground; 1t burst. You
were seen covered with blood, but
when persons came to your assistance
you rose up smiling, az Is your wont.
You were scarcely recovered from your
wound when you returned to the hos
pital whence | have now summoned
you."
Then the general made her kneel
down and, drawing bis sword. touched
her lightly with II three times on the
shoulder and pinned the cross Of the
Legion OF Honor on her habit, saying:
II put upon you the cross Of the
brave In the name Of the French people
and army, No one has gained 1t by
more deeds Of herolsm nor by life SO

The Canon Realty Company have

The city is about to stop several
poor but respectable self supporting
women and children from making a
partial living by peddling apples to
train passengers at the Denver and
Rio Grande depot The reason Is
offered that the apples are not up to
quality. Well, gentlemen, the poor
women and children certainly are,
and a thousand times more SO, than
the heartless train service corpora
ton that has really made the COM
plant in order to enable the news
agent on the train to sell more east
ern apples, which cost the company
much less than the Fremont County,
Colorado, product. No, gentlemen,
let's go after the dogs and forget the
poor apple vendors at the depot.
/ The Automobile Club held their re-
gular monthly meeting Sunday morn
ling and among other business tran
sacted passed a resolution highly COM
mending the efforts of the Citizens
Committee in their endeavor to raise
funds with which to complete the sky

each member of the club to give his
individual support in behalf of the

president to appoint delegate from

| A new conner standing on the Fre-

ed that big building was Sartor's cigar

The Canon City dogs had better be

years the "bogie man" may catch

Those one acre tracts in Broadmoor
subdivision will sell like peanuts at

There are over twenty new houses
right now under course of construc-
ton. The slogan Watch Canon City
Grow" was not amiss.
The Canon City merchants carry
just as good and complete holiday
stocks as you see advertised in the
Denver or Pueblo newspapers.
A daily paper is not a mere con-
venience but an absolute necessity
for the welfare of the merchants OF
any town over 5000 inhabitants.
The Palace Drug Store must have
an assortment of about four million
souvenir postal cards, judging from
the way they have their store decor
ated.
Five hundred dollars worth of local
advertising by our merchants, would
be the means of keeping five thousand
dollars at home, which now goes to
Denver and Pueblo.
The Colorado Electric Light and
Power Co. will have nearly doubled
their light and power capacity when
the many new additions and improve
ments are completed.
Don't send to Denver or Pueblo for

advertisement In one of those city
papers, but give our merchants a
chance. They may have 1t down in

Invariably when you find a small
town with good daily newspaper,
well patronized by local advertisers,
you can always figure on good fu-
ture for that locality, and safe place
to invest your money.
The fact that $4,000 are sent an
nually out OF Canon City to mail or
der houses in Denver. Pueblo. Kansas
City and Chicago is due to the circum-
stance that the mail order houses ad-
vertise more literally and more wisely
than our local merchants. Both the
express and postofice here has ex-
lperienced a great increase in their
money order business, and for q week
or two after the big mail order houses

ANTOINE wo0D MARRIED.

Special to The Sentinel
Canon City. June 9-Antone Wood
or Charles II. Ward, as he now calls
himself, who served such a long time
inthe state penitentiary for murder
when almost a boy in age. was mar
ried last Monday at Newburg. on the

lie Terry. daughter of Judge Terry,
one Of the principal citizens of that
place.
Miss Terry is not only a splendid
musician, but an elocutionist as well.
Wood met her last summer while
he was sketching along the Hudson
river and It was a case of love at first
sight upon the part of both principals
in the marriage.
The marriage has caused a SEN
sation, not only here, but at Newburg,
since Wood or Ward, as he is now
known, history has been told in full
to the wondering inhabitants.
