INEXPENSIVE EASTER GIFTS.
Some of the most irresistbly tempting ideas
are those shown among the less expensive offer
ings.
For example, what could be more charming and
spring-like than a quaint little basket of willow
green straw, laden with merry-faced daffodils, in
their setting of feathery greens? sketch of
this is given the page and the price but $125.
The basket is filled with moss and the cut flowers
are then tucked in. Sweet peas of variegated hues
are delightful employed in this way; SO are
tulips in pink and white or yellow with daisies
and sprinkling of freeza. A basket of burnt
straw filled with double violets and bow Of

goes without saying that the growth
and prosperity of the community will
be given a Stimulus by the construc-
ton and operation of the proposed
electric railway such as few other en-
terprises would bring to it, and that

scribers many times the amount they
have invested in the bonus.
The soliciting committee Is getting
along very well with its work and is
receiving from four to six letters every
day from people who desire to assign
the amount they subscribed to the old
bonus, now in escrow in the Fremont
County National Bank, to the new
fund, which encourages the hope that
the ambition of Col. Sellers and those
connected with him as members of the
committee is about to be realized.
If sufficient public spirit can be
aroused to raise the bonus we will get

enterprise we will probably fall.

RAILROAD MAGNATES WILL
VISIT CANON IN JANUARY.

Frank d. Heath received a telegram
Tuesday from w. w. Umbenhauer,
of the Umbenhauer Investment Com
pany of Philadelphia, stating that he
would, in company with his Kansas
City associates, arrive here very short
ly after the first of January for the
purpose of making a personal investi-
cation of the electric railway PROPOSE
ton, and that the bonus committee
must be ready to make report at
that time.
Mr. Umbenhauer said that they were
fully prepared to carry out the plans
outlined by Mr.. Heath, provided the
bonus asked for had been fully sub
scribed and was available on the COM
pletion of the road July list, 1907.
He said that If the people of Canon
City were willing to do their part there
would be no DOUBT about the lectric
railway, but if they were not interest
ed in the matter it would be difficult
proposition to secure the necessary
capital for the execution of the enter
prise.
The question of an electric railway
to the top of the Royal Gorge is now
up to the people of Canon City.
Mr.. Umbenhauer's telegram is very
clear upon that point, and whatever
is done must be done quickly, as but
little more than two weeks remain
in which to complete the raising of
the 100000 bonus.
People should disabuse their minds
of the idea that Mr.. Umbenhauer and

Human rights-the right of the indi-

moralizing influence of organized wealth
and greed. No despotism can be more
absolute than the despotism of money.

are essential to the prosperity of the

Philadelphia Woman Tells of Street
Fight and Dog Catching

To the Editor of The Age-Herald:
From my window in the hotel Birming-

witnessing a most brilliant display of
bravery on the part of four of Birming-
hams finest" An argument had just
taken place between brawny, siX-foot
man and colored boy. who looked to
be aged about sixteen. They argued, and
the man struck the boy. The latter i'm
mediately walked to a brick pile, and
while he did pick up a brick and threat
en- the man, his words were not put into
execution. He started to walk away,
talking and threatening in his own blus-
terlng manner. The moment his back was
turned. the big man rushed after him,
and proceeded to give him good beat
ing.
A crowd soon gathered and seemed to
enjoy the fun. I am not a lover of fights,
but / was pleased to see this grown man
given as good a beating as he was adj
ministering to the boy, no matter how the
latter had offended, as 1t was not a fair
fight.
All the while the fight was in progress
four policeuen stood by but did not in
terfere. One did go so far as to out
stretch his arm, but it never touched
either combatant The fight subsidized. and
the attention of these four policemen was
given over to the picking up of three un-
fortunate dogs. l firmly believe in trying
