PROSPECT HEIGHTS HAS
TWO CITY MARSHALS

In some respects the people of Pros
pect Heights are in the same boat with
their chief of police as the citizens of
Florence are with their night marshal.
Both of these custodians of the law
have been suspended from office. al
J though their dismissal has been ac-
complished by widely different causes.
In the first instance it was because
of conscientious discharge of duty.
and in the other it was due to ne
glect to enforce the ordinances against
evils from which the community suf-
fered.
Marshall Fillmore was given notice
few days ago by the municipal coun-
Gil of Prospect Heights that his SER
vices were no longer required and
that the office of town. marshal was va
cant pending the appointment of his
successor
He refused to obey the mandate and
continues to officiate in the capacity
OF CHIEF or police, althoagn Mayor
Shepherd has nominated NJ. ]. Berg
gantz to assume the badge of office and
in consequence there is a sort OF dual
police system in Prospect Heights at
present.
Marshal Fillmore was instructed by
resolution at a recent meeting of the
council to collect the dog tax in Pros
pect Heights, an Injunction that he
at once proceeded to carry into execu-
ton. Because of his discovery that
most of the CANNES of the town were
owned by the city dads and of his in
sistence that they should pay reve-
nue. into the municipal treasury on
account of said ownership the marshal
was, fguratively speaking, given the
grand bounce" and so there you are.

BAND CONCERTS ARE
HIGHLY ENJOYABLE

In view OF the large attendance of
people that has marked the open air
concerts of the Interurban Band at
the City Park during the current sum

attention to the program to be rem
dered by 1t there tomorrow evening.

In town who are unaware that such
concerts are provided for the public
enjoyment and for their benefit, more
than for the resident population. is
this item written.
The Interurban Band is an organi-
zation in which the people of Canon
City have taken commendable de-
gree OF interest and its success and
triumphs have been a source OF gen.
always been ready to serve the public
and has been a booster for Canon City
on all occasions. 1t is composed OF
representative young men OF the COM
munity and they have endeavored at
all times to deport themselves in such
a manner as to merit public approval.
BY faithful conscientious practice
they have built up q musical organi-
zation that is equal in all respects to
any of its kind in this section OF the
state. A successful band must TO a
very large degree be public spirited,
and such has been the case with the
Interurban. It has done much for the
town and a recognition OF that fact
should be manifested by a generous
patronage of Its regular Friday night
concerts. Go to the park tomorrow
evening and enjoy the music.

trespassing on the reserve, but SO far
as we have been able to ascertain no
arrests for stealing timber have been
made.
1t Is too bad that 30 much really
fine timber should have been wasted

to imply negligence on the part OF
those whose duty 1t is to conserve 1t.
There is none too much timber In
Southern Colorado and It should be
protected wherever possible, part!c-

The Zionfte colony of Chicago, made
famous recently through the caprices
of John Alexander Dowie, founder of
the peculiar religious sect there, is
mont county.
Almost every department of industry
has been invaded by the Zionites and
their mining experts have thoroughly
Investigated several propositions in
Mexico, New Mexico, Arizona and Col
orado recently. The latter field ap-
pears to the astute religionists as the
most promising of all.
The Bare Hills country, lying fif-
teen miles to the north of Canon City
by wagon road, which has come into
considerable prominence through the
late developments, is the particular
field in which the representatives of
the Chicago sect have taken most in
terest, and Mr.. William Cedarstaff has
spent the past two weeks investigating
several properties which are for sale
there.
A report made by this representa-
tive, who is not SO much of mining
man as a man of peculiarly incisive
business acumen, has resulted in the
practical assurance that the control of
the capital stock of the Copper Queen
Mining Company will be subscribed by
the colony When this has been done
a plant of machinery will be moved
onto the Copper Queen and work will
begin Immediately on the removal of
the immense body of copper ore in
sight, and the development of the gold
veins in the property.
A group of Denver capitalists has
been investigating the Copper Queen
for several weeks. and obtained the
tremendous assays of $50 in gold and
!.8 per cent. copper clear across an
eight-foot vein. This peculiar combin-
alton of mineral is as remarkable as
rich, but the Denverites objected to the
size of the bond demanded by the own
ers of the claim, the latter believing
that they have proposition that is
second to none in the camp.

Carl Sextus of Cripple Creek are the
principal stockholders in the Copper
Queen Company. They have develop
ed the mine to its present depth of 100
feet and are enthusiastic over the big
find they have made They believe
that they have true fissure veins in
that vicinity that are superior in con-
tinuity to those of the Cripple Creek
district.

CITIZENS WANT THE
LABOR CLUB CLOSED

A petition was circulated in all the
Evangelical churches in Canon City at
the morning and evening services on
Sunday calling upon the mayor to en-
force the law regarding the sale Of
liquor in Canon City. Over 500 persons
signed the petition. which is as fol-
lows:
ITO Mayor T. B. Coulter:
I'VE, the undersigned residents and
voters of Canon City and vicinity, re-
spectfully petition you to enforce the
laws and orders of the city council in
relation to the closing of the Labor
Club, more generally known as Joe
Walton's whiskey club joint. Some
persons say that the liquor laws can
not be enforced, but they have been
enforced in st. Louis, Kansas City, and
in many cities in our own state. The
notification of laws by executive OFF,
GERS is responsible for the great evils
of our time The chief executive does
not take an oath to uphold what he
thinks is public sentiment, but he does
take an oath to uphold the law.
Believing it to be your sworn duty
to enforce the laws and orders of the
council, we appeal to you to abate the
nuisance now being run by Joe Wal
ton in violation of existin CLAWS"
The petition will be presented at the
next meeting of the city council.

to the average person, but the
coal and wood dealer doesn't en-.
joy them because his sales of
wood and coal are decreased. 'Tis
the other folks that enjoy them,
the people who have to travel
the streets, the fair ladies who
are anxious to wear their "peek
. boo" waists, and others.
One of the big circuses which
travels the country during Sum-
mer, will go into winter quarters
here before long. Their big men,
agerie issfilled with lot of big,
funny, dangerous wild animals
and the school children OF the
city will have the pleasure Of
going to see them on certain
days of thesweek. The managers
have granted the'city fathers the
the use of one of their big ele
plants, TO be used in pulling a
big four-horse Ilow, which is
used to plow up one of the parks,
preparatory to sowing grain. The
park contains about hundred
acres and twill be pretty good
task for the elephant, but they
say they use them for that pnr.
pose in India, aud they see no
reason whysMacon should not do
the same.
One OF our. citizens, a mer
chant, says his father, who lives
in South Carolina, is 101 years
old. This goes to prove that peo-
pie in the oldt Palmetto State live
to ripe old age, as well as those
in Georgia. We heard a story
once, told by fellow, who was
boasting of the longevity of
Georgians, and to illustrate, said
that he was going along the pub
lie road one day and saw very
aged, gray-headed and decrepit
man, sitting down, crying Bit
terly. He asked the old fellow
what the trouble was, and he
replied, "Pa whipped me for
sassing grandpa"
The farmers have well-nigh
gathered the crops of corn and
cotton and are now turning their
attention to sowing small grain,
syrup-making, etc. The crop of
Georgia cane is pretty fair this
year and large quantities Of the
good old Georgia cane syrup will
be made. The sorghum cane is
not planted much, as every body
seems t; prefer the other kind
for syrup.
1t begins to look very much
as if we will have big tourist
hotel In our city and every. body
is hoping that the plans now on
foot to get one will materialize.
1t is the intention Of the promo
ters to secure a large tract of
land in the suburbs of the city
in the woods and build IA very
large hotel, with at least a hun.
dred rooms, have large golf links
and other sports and make the
place very comfortable and at
tractive, so that the rich folks
from the North VINO come down
South during winter will like
