BICYCLE MAN HAS
LEFT CANON CITY

The bicycle store of N. A. Tatum at
800 Main street is vacant and no one
appears to know his present address.
His wife, who occupies the upstairs
with her two children. says that her
husband left without telling her that
he was going away, and she has not
heard anything from him since.
1t was several days ago that Mr..
Tatum left the. city. Before doing
so he disposed of most of his stock
and the balance of it, so it is said, he
took with him, as well as some of his
tools.
Mr. Tatum was formerly in the
bicycle business at Florence, and is
very well known in that city. He
went from there to Pueblo and was a
m5torman on the electric railway.
about six months ago he came here
and appeared to be doing good busi-
ness The rent of the store is paid
till the 25th of the present month.
Mr. Tatum's friends and family
hope that they will soon hear from
him and are confident that everything
trill turn out all right

PROMOTER GRANGER HIT
BY TEAMSTER TIPTON

Judge Bradbury's court was the
scene of an unusually interesting
trial Thursday.
]. C. Upton, teamster, was
charged with assault by F. s. Granger,
the electric car line promoter.
After hearing the evidence, Judge
Bradbury bound Mr.. Upton over to
keep the peace in the sum of $500.
Both Mr.. Granger and Mr.. Upton
gave testimony, and the evidence
brought out the following facts:
Mr.. Upton tried to collect bill
from Mr.. Granger this morning for
hauling limestone.
Mr.. Granger didn't have the money
to pay Mr.. Upton said that he had
heard that the sugar company that
was buying the lime stone had settled
and that some of the teamsters had
been paid, and that all should be
treated alike.
Mr.. Granger says he said If Upton
said this he was a liar. Mr.. Upton
says NIL ShiiS' AA4AAA ~
ned liar.
ANY way Upton resented being call
ed liar of any kind and he swatted
Granger in the face.
Granger says he was hit by Upton
fist else he wouldn't have been knock
ed down SO early, as he weighs 240
pounds. but Upton contends that he
hit his enemy with the fat of his
left hand.
Any way all admit that Upton hit
Granger and that Granger went down,
falling hard
1t wasn't made quite clear just how
much Upton punished as adversary
after he fell.
Mr. Granger cried loudly for his gun
and his family appeared on the seen
He says Upton tried to kick his face
up, or in. TiLton says that he could
have kicked his face up all right but
that he wasn't much on fighting before
women anC children and he didn't
want to hurt a man when he ":
down.
When Mr.. Granger began talking of
gun plays Upton said he would be in
on the game and he went home and
buckled on his arsenal. When he came
back down Main street peace reigned
and there was no gun shooting.
The district attorney asked Mr..
Tipton if he hal ever been arrested

TWO HOBOES HOLD-UP
JANITOR JIM YEISER

One of the most exciting episodes
that has taken place in Canon City
for several weeks was enacted on
Fifth street, near the postoffice, about
1880 o'clock Thursday large crowd
of men were lounging about the en-
trance to the postoffice lobby at the
time, all of whom were greatly sur
prised by seeing man running down
the street towards the Western Union
Telegraph Office and almost immedi-
ately afterwards hearing the report
of pistol shot, which rang out clear
and distinct At the moment the
shooting occurred the fleeing man
was seen to dodge behind tree in
front of Squire Bradbury's Office and
hastily pull a revolver out of one
of his trouser pockets, which he threw
in the direction of the River street
crossing, where it buried itself in the
mud.
the shooting had been done by Mar
shal Houston. and that it had brought
to bay the man he wanted to capture.
Two hoboes, who gave their names
after their arrest as A. J. Vice and w.
T. Collins, assaulted and endeavored
to intimidate Jim Yeiser. colored.
about Z o'clock "Wednesday night, at
the rear of the Acme brosk, 724 Main
street, and to that xaa Twas due the
incident we are trying to chronicle.
A description of his assailants had
been given to Marshal Houston by
Mr.. Yeiser, but he was unable to To-
cate them until they we're seen at the
postoffice corner this morning. AS
soon as the marshal recognized the
men he wanted he ordered them to
halt. One of them made a motion as
If to draw arevolver, and was quickly
seized and disarmed The other one
started to run, but was brought to a
stop by the report of the officers
gun.
They were taken to the county Jail
and locked up pending arrangements
for a preliminary hearing. On being
searched at the Jail they were each
found to possess a revolver and trim
kets of various kinds, most of which
are believed to have been stolen.
From letters found on their per-
sons, most of which were post marked
in Texas, it Is believed they came
originally from the south, although
they probably came here from either
Salida or Buena Vista.
About dark Wednesday night they
met Jim Yeiser. the coIored janltor,
near Keables' drug store and pushed
him off the sidewalk Jim did not
like tht sort of thing and told them
so in plain language, at which they
swore at him and told him that they
would get even with him before they
left town.
An half an hour later they located
him at the rear of the Acme block,
where he had been looking after the
furnace in the basement OF the build
ing. They drew their revolyers and
pressed them against his body, threa
tening to kill him IL he made any
outcry. They also kicked and other
wise abused him, but without serious
injury.
The prisoners appear to be pretty
tough pair OF tramps.

II Familiar Phrase.

IL -fLLD1ILLCLP HN7'US4.
WE OFTEN the phrase: His word isas good
as his bond.' No doubt there are many who have
never given this sentence moment serious thought
However it would be difficult to coin an expression
that speaks so complimentary of ones honesty OF
course there is an Unreasonable difference between
truthfulness and honesty, just there is between
character and good reputation
The man whose word is as good as his bond has
a reputation of which he can bejustly proud There
is nothing meaner or more contemplate than to be
untruthful. 1t is as bad as being dishonest AS a
rule many persons have little faith in the word of
the unruthful man. than they have confidence in the
man who has several dishonesties credited to him.
"Why, l would not believe you under oath, said
Cicero to Roman SENATOR who had bad reputation
for untruthfuness. The apt that it
caused tumutuous applause in the Forum. It is
needless to say that the mans usefulness as sena-
tor declined under such whitening retort.
The man who is always truthful is
tented than the who is not In fact, it is easier
tell the truth than is to invent tissue of false
hoods; for when it becomes generally known that
ones word is unreliable, persons lose confidence in
him, and will not believe him under any circum-
stances.

The BLOc6 SYSten1.

The recent disastrous railroad wreck that &C.
Cured in Virginia was a severe blow to those who
have been so insistent in compelling railroads to
adopt the block system. For many years this system
has been considered the only safe method by which
head-on collisions could be avoided Now we have
wreck that has occurred on railroad that had the
block system in operation.
The block system is hundred per cent better
than the old method but, like many other admirable
systems which have been installed to protect life and
property, the question of personal responsibility
cannot be eliminated. Human judgment is bound to
err, no matter how sober methodcal may
be in his habits. Undoubtedly it was a case of for
getfulness that caused this signal operator to admit
two trains in the same block at the same time.
With good men in charge of these systems
wrecks could be greatly decreased. But while the
fitness Of these being tested for this kind of
work, less incompetents are bound to be
nected with the service-men whose minds are think
ing of something else besides their work. This neg
lgence Of inattention to ones duties produces bad
results in every endeavor No doubt it was this lack
of concentration to the duties at hand that caused
the block system to slip cog, aid thus death
and ruin to follow Systems are excellent things,
but until first class placed in charge Of Them
they are absolutely worthless.

Millions Us. Titles.
CONSIDERING the several international divorce
scandals that have occurred recently it is than
likely that American girls WILL in the future pause
before exchanging their millions for worthless titles
But it is doubtless whether they will heed the lesson
that has been purchased at such fearful COST Many

than many of that gentry who live by their wits.

with no other aim than to seek pseudo-social dis

SOZitNru Confinement.

Solitary Confinement.
FEW weeks ago mentioned the fact that
France intended to abolish the death penalty We
learn that it is to be superseded mprson-
ment the first six years of which are to be spent in
solitary confinement. It is question whether this
method is an improvement over the old form; for it
is likely that fifty per cent if not more Of those
demned to six years of solitary confinement will, at
the end of that tme be gibbering lunatics If such
should be the case, it would be more humane to let
the guillotine remain
On the other hand, of what benefit would these
mental wrecks be to the state? Instead of being put
at profitable employment, they would be asource Of
great expense. Not only that, but they would be a
constant to those in charge of them It will
require time before the French authorities
ascertain whether not their new mode of punish
ment is success failure. At the end of ten or
