There were centerpiece and square mats in won- derful openwork. A glass vase of scar let nasturtiums and blue ard white china made the table attractive and hOmelike.

Look Pleaaant.

Don't, if you are woman with a sad face, try to look still sadder Chirk up; smile; make your mouth into Cupid's bow; force yourself to look ami mated; try to be expressive with your eyes. A sad. wan face never won out in a beauty contest.

The Bathtub.

The bath is little tiresome to keep in good condition unless great care is taken. When the enamel is dirty and discolored take some parafan, dip a piece of flannel into it and keep rub ping the bath gently until all dirt Is removed; then wash with warm soap and water. Zinc goods can be made to look like new in this way. Paraf flu Is used in many ways and Is of wonderful assistance to the housewife while waging her war against dirt.

Its lesson ve find hard to teach, especially to the pretty ones, who Insist on looking their best, but we had a case the other day which we will be able to use as an argument and illustration in the future. A girl who when sue left us was . first class stenoErapher came back to complain that she couldn't get place. She wore picture bat and jewels and looked more like a duchess than working girl and said she had been chasing a job three days without sue cess. We told her we would guarantee her place at the end of days search If she would dress as we told her. She agreed to this, and we removed the jewels, replaced the picture hat with a modest and unpretentious one and told her to put on neat white cuffs. She did this and got work upon the second ap- plca ation."- n."-Philadelphia Record.

 Mrs. Davidson was very well inform cd on the business of the bank. Be- sides, she is possessed of q bright and alert mind.

From the beginning of her financial career she showed much enthusiasm and acumen. Every day she spent several hours in her of flee consulted the directors on invest ments and even ventured to suggest many avenues for profitable use of the funds.
 The other officers ceased to regard her as woman: they accepted her on basis of masculine ability; they re- garded her as one of themselves. Con- seQuently, when the president of the bank died, in 1903. the directors unan imousy elected Mrs Davidson to the office In her higher position she showed even greater activity and sagacity. She assumed undisputed control of the institution. Other bank ing men in the state, when they heard of her, smiled; later they said she was a very bright woman. They came to have much respect for her financial shrewdness and cleverness.

ROYAL GORGE WORK
GOING ALONG FAST

Gratifying progress Is being made
in the construction of the electric
trolley line to the top of the Royal
Gorge and additional men are being
put to work as rapidly as circum-
stances will permit, as Mr.. Granger
and his associates are determined to
have the line finished and ready for
business within the next ten weeks.
A new camp of about fifty men has
been installed by Contractor Billy
White a mile in advance of the end
of the present grade within the past
week and the men composing it will
work on towards the Gorge, leaving
those behind to complete the roadbed
up to their camping place.
Mr.. Granger says the electric line
will open up territory of magnificent
mineral resources and that there is
enough marble and building stone
along the line of the road to erect a
city larger than any now existing in
Colorado. There is one ledge of mar
BILE half a mile wide and three miles
long that invites development, and
Mr.. Granger thinks 1t is only oues-
ton of time until capital will be found
for its exploitation.
What Canon City needs more than
anything else to get its advantages
and resources before the world, ac-
cording to Mr.. Granger, is a live, ag-
gressive chamber of commerce, which
will advertise it's attractions, both as
a business point and as place of
residence in systematic manner,
Advertising, Mr. Granger asserts. has
built many large and thriving COM
munity, the resources and surround
ings of which were not half so allur-
ing as those about Canon City, but it
must be of the right kind.
Canon City ought to have 10000 in
habitants, and II people boost for it
properly there is no reason why 1t
should not have them in the course of
the next few years. A chamber of
commerce would, in the opinion of
Mr.. Granger, fill long felt want and
contribute much more to the material
growth of the community than almost
any other agency.

NELL LONG GUILTY OF
SECOND DEGREE MURDER

The trial of Nell Long, who is
charged with the killing of his bro
ther-in-law, James Good, on the night
of November Z, was concluded at noon
Tuesday, having occupied the atten-
ton of the court less than two days.
The evidence was all in by noon on
Tuesday, and at 1880 o'clock in the
afternoon argument was begun before
the jury. Two hours and a quarter
later the jury retired to begin ballot
ing with a view of reaching an agree
ment At ten minutes past five O'Clock
the jury returned to the court room
and announced that it had reached a
verdict. 1t was handed to Judge Bail
ey and by him given to the clerk, who
read its message, which was murder
in the second degree.
A peculiar feature of the trial was
the fact that the attorneys for the
prisoner objected to the admission of
testimony from Longs wife under a
principle of the common law which
holds that the relationship between
husband and wife is SO intimate as to
render them practically one and the
same person. The objection was sus-
tanned by the court and Mrs. Long was
not permitted to testify, nor was the
sworn statement she made before the
coroner's jury placed before the jury.
The extreme penalty for murder in the
second degree is life imprisonment
Long himself refused to testify and
his conviction was secured almost
wholly upon the ante-mortem state
ment made by Good and introduced
by DR.. c. H. Graves. Long was re-
manded to await sentence.
The attorneys for the prisoner were
Taylor and Sayre and Orion Locke.
The jurors were: F. s. Allen, ]. l.

er. W. Babberger. c. A. Biggs, A. NJ

be no detention in installing the new
exchange on account of failure to get
them in place within the specified

due much of the success of the tele-
phone business here. which has grown

supervision. With its new building

phone company will be In a position

confidently rely upon an increasing

without a proportionate outlay for
operating expenses. The telephone

n luxury, and many people that for
merly regarded Its use as too expen-
sive now consider 1t In the light of
an indispensable necessity and the
expenditure matter OF economy
With the installation of the equip
ment planned by the company for its
Canon City system local subscribers
will shortly be afforded telephone

ity of Its size in the west.

exchange. which had at that time a
total of eighty-one subscribers Flor
ence was for long period more
generous patron of the telephone than
Canon City, in fact. when Mr.. Hatch
came here six years ago there were
one hundred phones in the former
place and ouly eighty-seven here. At
the end of April. 1902, Canon City had
forged ahead and had two hundred
phones against the one hundred and
eighty for the Florence exchange. At
present the business here Is more
than twice that of Florence IL the
number of phones may be taken as a
criterion of Judgment. There are
seven hundred and two phones In use
In this city. In Florence the number
is three hundred and fourteen.
with the completion of the new
telephone building, which is under
contract to be done by June 25th, n

the company being to make 1t as
complete and up-to-date NJ possible.

that the Sunday school room will be

the funds can be raised the whole

doubtful as the members are not

COLORADO TELEPHONE COMPANY

Business Telephone Has Drown Greatly
Model Building Under Way Construction.

The erection of a handsome build

Telephone company on East Main
street for its exclusive use directs
attention to the rapid growth OF the
telephone business in this county. es-
pesialiy in Canon City, which, proba-
bly,. has more phones in use in pro-
portion to population than any town
In the state.
The Colorado Telephone company
established itself here along about
1887. but at first people were a little
chary about patronizing II as the tele-
phone was not at that time so potent
a factor in social and commercial life
as II Is at present. Its value, how
ever. was soon demonstrated and
there was gradual extension of bus
mess, although a full decade passed
before the usefulness of the tele-
phone was recognized by some OF the
more staid and conservative men OF
the town. some of whom looked upon
II as an innovation, the value of which
was somewhat questionable for com
mercial purposes.
In November 1900. thirteen years
after the Inauguration of the tele-
phone business here, Austin L. Hatch
