COLORADO SINGER OF NOTE
TO GIVE GRAND CONCERT

Judging by the way the seats are
going the concert given by Tom Rich
ards, the Savage grand opera baritone,
at the opera house June 5. will be a
tremendous success.
This young baritone's success as a
grand opera singer is known to every
true Coloradoan. MIR. Richards, al
though raised in Colorado Springs, is
at present resident of Canon City.
Since his return home the little Rich
ards homestead on South Ninth street
has been besieged with friends beg

Miss Martha Miner. who is at pres
ent in Canon City and will take part
with Mr.. Richards, is also Colorado
girl Her home is in Denver, where
she did a great deal of concert work
before she became a grand opera
singer.
The program will be a carefully Sc
lected one. nearly everything being
sung in Engiish. SO it will be thor
oughly understood and enjoyed by ev-
cry one. The concert will begin at
eight O'Clock. promptly. Tickets are

that good deal of it will have to be
rebuilt before any heavy hauling can
be done on 1t.
The road is only eight feet wide, ac-
cording to Mr.. Canterbury. and there
are SO many sharp turns in it that it
would be difficult to drive loaded
wagon over it. The Teller county
commissioners made an inspection of
the road a few days ago and expressed
the opinion that it would require $4,000
to put it in good condition.

CANON TO ORCACIzE
CHAMBER OF COMMERCE

An unusually interesting meeting of
the Canon City Merchants Association
was held last Monday night and sew
eral matters of Importance to the com
munity were considered. Notably was
of organizing a chamber of commerce.
and in the movement for an adequate
water supply for the city.
There was a larger attendance of
members than usual at Monday nights
meeting of the Association, besides a
number of visitors who had been invit-
ed to be present for the purpose of
discussing ways and means of launch
ing the proposed chamber of COM
merce.
The committee appointed at pre-
vious meeting and charged with the
work of outlining plan for the or
body. of which George H. Salie is the
chairman, reported in favor of pro-
ceeding along the lines suggested by
C. A. Linkins in his annual report as
president of the Association, and to
that end appointed a committee of sew
en- members which should be commits
stoned to work out the details of or
ganization. Feeling a delicacy about
assuming the responsibility of the ap-
pointment OF this committee. which is
to become the board of directors OF
the contemplated chamber of COM
merce, President Hutton asked the
permission OF the Association to be
allowed TO choose two of its members
to assist him in selecting the commit
tee, which was granted. The person
mel OF the committee has not yet been
announced.
The proposed chamber of commerce
and the Canon City Merchants Asso-
citation are TO some extent, at least, to
have mutual interests and. as far as
possible, one is TO be made the com
plement of the other. the latter. OF
course. to be the subsidiary organiza-
ton owing to the limited scope of Its
Operations.

WERE LOOKING FOR NEW
SOURCE OF WATER SUPPLY

Aldermen ]. C. Hyssong. l. II. Ban

Huntoon and William Kenly drove
over to Parkdale last Monday for the
purpose of making an investigation of
the underfiow of Currant and Cotton
wood creeks as a possible source of
water supply for Canon City. They
were surprised at the volume of the
-underfiow. which at the place visited
has its channel upon bed rock, and
will report the result of their trip at
the next meeting of the city council.

way OF bringing the water to Canon

committee, although they are not
deemed impossible of solution il placed
in the hands of a competent hydraulic

the community and could be made a
potential agency in advertising its ca
pabilities and resources to the world.
In advocating Its organization F. S.
Granger stated that he had never lived
In community that possessed such
manifold resources as Canon City and
that II a chamber of commerce existed
here to advertise and exploit its ad-
vantages in less than five years there
would be $4,000 people here. Mr..
Granger asserted that fourishing
towns of four or five times our popu-
lation had been built on the Pacific
coast that did not have one half the
advantages possessed by Canon City.
"An we need here" said Mr.. Granger,
"is to get things started. and the COM
munity will grow like Jonah's gourd."
Among other business transacted by
the Association at Monday nights
meeting was the adoption Of motion
instructing the water committee to
frame suitable resolutions commend
ing the interest shown by the city
council in It's efforts to obtain an ade-
Quate water supply for the city. and
to present the same at the next meet
ing OF that body.
Carl Walters appeared before the
Association and asked that 1t lend Its
moral and financial support to the
Canon City Military Band in the public
concerts which It was arranging to
give during the summer months. No
nxed amount was asked for and no
definite promise of assistance was CIV
en-. although Mr.. Walters was given to
understand that the encouragement
asked for would be extended at the
proper time.

Deafness Cannot be Cur,d

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
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
infamed condition of the mucuos lin
ing of the Estrachian Tube. When
this tube is infamed you have a rum
bling sound or imperfect hearing. and
when II is entirely closed. Deafness is
the result. and unless the inflamma-
tion can be taken out and this tube
restored to its normal condition, hear
ing will be destroyed forever; nine
cases out of ten are caused by Ca
,arrh, which is nothing but an in
famed condition of the mucuos sur

AS soon as replies cease coming in
to the executive committee in relation
to its recent circular letter, three So
liciting committees of two members
each will be placed in the field to make
a canvass of the community in order
that everybody may have an oppor-
tunity to subscribe. Those in charge
OF the matter have their ambition set
upon $4,000. which they believe will
bring the college to Canon City.
Whatever remains to be done must
be done quickly as our proposition
must be in the hands OF the special
committee Of the Synod of Colorado at
Its meeting to be held in Colorado
Springs one week from tomorrow.
The subscriptions. IL we should be
fortunate enough to get the college
here. are to be paid in five annual in
stallments of twenty per cent. each.
Payments In this way are very easy
and almost everybody can afford to
do something for the college as mat

Miss Helen B. in Sergeant Kitty, a comic opera that was pronounced by the
 New York critics to be the best of this style of theatrical entertainment offered to the public in many years and which made record runs in New York last sea- son at the Casino and Dalys theatre, will be seen at the Jefferson theatre Satur- day matinee and night, October 13. The book and lyrics are by R. H. Burnside and the music by A. Baldwin Sloane whose tuneful ''Mocking Bird" is still well remembered. The chorus is one of the strongest features of "Seargeant Kitty The girls are not only pretty, but they can sing.
 The play tells in a rational way the story of a pretty, wnsome, headstrong girl Kitty, who is determined to be mar ried to the man she loves despite the opposition of an eccentric old aunt. The elopement, the marriage by proxy, the pursuit by the aunt the trick played by Kitty upon the aunt the complications which arise from the necessity of keep ing the marriage a secret and the added troubles of another couple who are also married secretly and the love-making and disappointment of a funny captain are the ingredients that go to make one of the most comic of all operas.
