FUEL AND IRON co.
COMES TO TAW
Fuel and Iron Company Will use Road
way for Big Ditch Near Portland.

Last week the county commission
ers served notice on the Colorado Fuel
and Iron company that work on the
ditch near Portland should cease as
the company was using the public
road without proper authority.
The Rio Grande right of way ex-
tends to the line of the county road
and on the south side of the roadway
is a high bluff, to cut under which
would make very expensive ditch.
Tuesday the county commissioners
met the constructing engineer and
other officers of the company at Port
land. After viewing the ground a
very satisfactory settlement was made
and a contract entered into between
the county and the company.
The county gives the right of way
for the ditch. The company is to cut
it's grade from seven feet to nine feet
in depth and cover the ditch and main
tain the cover for all time. Commits
is completed according to the con-
tract entered into the travelling public
will not be aware there is ditch
under the roadway.
The ditch is to be piped through the
town of Portland and the company
gives up its twenty-five foot right Of
way to an eight foot right of way. The
ditch is known as the Bessemer ditch.
The Fuel and Iron company was re-
Gently given a right of seventy feet of
water by a decree of the Pueblo dis
trict court.
The ditch companies of Fremont
county hive protested and have ap-
pealed from the decision of the dis
trict court to the supreme court The
Fuel company, however, is pushing
work on its ditch as though there is
no other chance but that it will win
in the supreme court.

coal there is no comparison. 1t is
almost as good as the famous Baldwin
coal. One ton of it will last about as
long as two tons of Somerset. And to
think the price is only $1.5o per ton
higher. No SCOT, no clinkers and very
little ashes. Here we have to pay S.
for Somerset coal, hauled but seventy
miles, and only $3.50 for Canon City
coal, hauled 200 miles. Evidently the
Somerset people are not losing much
money.
Mr.. HALEY said that if the demand
was sufficient he would handle Canon
City coal steadily.-Montrose Press.

RExAu "ss" HAiRAroMIc

The famous Rexall "03" Hair
Tonic is composed in chief of
Resorcin, Beta Naphthol and
Pilocarpin.
Resorcin is one of the latest
and most effective germ-killers
discovered by a science, and in
connection with Beta Naphthol,
which is both germicidal and
antiseptic, a combination is
formed which not only destroys
the germs which rob the hair of
its nutriment, but creates a
clean and healthy condition of
the scalp, which prevents the
lodgment and development of
new germs.
Pilocarpin is a well-known
agent for restoring the hair to
its natural color, where the loss
of color has been due to a dis
ease of the scalp. 1t is not a
coloring matter or dye-it pro-
duces its effect by stimulating
the scalp and hair follicles to
health and active life.
This C I'M bination of cur
atives mixed with alcohol as a
stimulant, perfects the most ef-
fective remedy for hair and
scalp troubles known to-day.

aexAlL DYSPEPSIA TABLETS

The remarkable success of
Rexall Dyspepsia Tablets is
largely due to the new and sue
cessful method of manufacture,
whereby the well known prop
critics of Bismuth Subnitrate
and Pepsin have been combined
with carminitives and o thsr
agents.
Bismuth Subnitrate and Pep
sin are recognized by the entire
medical profession as specifics
for acute indigestion or chronic
dyspepsia.
The Pepsin used is manufac-
trred under a new proces 5
which develops its greatest eff
fciency. Pepsin not only sup
plies to the digestive machinery
one of the most important ele-
ments Of the digestive fluid, but
il seems to exert a tonic inhu-
ence upon the glands which
supply all the other elements.
The carminitives add prop
critics which promptly relieve
pains caused by undigested food.
The combination of the whole
makes remedy absolutely in
valuahle to any man or woman
suift .lg from dyspepsia-and
not only remedy, but a emye
which works by gradually re-
building and stimulating tn e
glands which perform the di-
gestive functions. Package, 2bc.

Optimistic James Hampton, ~ Marx
Twain Knew Him.

Optimistic James Hampton, ~ Marx
Twain knew Him.
In the opening chapter OF his Auto
biography" PRINTED in the first fort
nightly number OF the North American
Review, Marx Twain tells thus OF the
original Colonel Sellers:
Many persons regarded Colonel Sci
lers as a fiction. an invention, IN ex-
trayagant imposslblllty, and did me
the honor to call him q creation" but
they were mistaken. / merely put him
on paper as he was. He was NOT q per-
son who could be exaggerated. The In
cidents which looked most eKtraVa-
CANT, both In the book and on the
stage, were not inventions OF mine, but
were facts Of his life, and I was pres
emit when they were developed.
John 7. Raymond's audiences used
to come near to dying with laughter
over the turnip eating scene; but, ex-
travagant as the scene was, It was
faithful to the facts In all Its absurd
details. The thing happened in Lamp
tons own house, ami I was present In
fact. 1 was myself the guest who ate
the turnlps. In the hands Of q great
actor that pIteous scene would have
dlmmed any manly spectators eyes
with tears and racked his ribs apart
with laughter at the same time. But
Raymond was great In humorous por-
trayal only. In that he was superb, he
was wonderful-in a word, great. In
all things else he was q pygmy Of the
pygmies.
The real Colonel Sellers as I knew
him In James hampton was q pathetic
and beautiful spirit, a manly man, a
straight and honorable man, a man
with a big, foolish, unselfish heart In
bis bosom, q man born to be loved, and
he was loved by all his friends and by
bis family worshlped II Ii the right
word To them he was but little less
than q god The real Colonel Sellers
was never on the stage. Only half Of
him was there. Raymond could not
play the other half Of him. II was
above bis Level. There was only one

since I ate the basin Of raw turnips
and washed them down with q bucket
Of water In his house. he was become
old and white headed, but he entered

bis earlier life, and he was all there
yet-not q detail wanting. The happy
