CANON SAVINGS BANK PAYS
ALL OF ITS INDEBTEDNESS

Although the committee which had
charge of the affairs of the defunot
Canon Savings Bank has not yet been
formally discharged by Judge Bailey,
it will be in a very short time. as all
of the Indebtedness of the bank has
been settled and the final report of
: the committee filed in the ofiice Of the
district clerk.
The clearing up OF every dollar of
the banks liability is a notable a
chievement and reflects great credit
upon those charged with the manage
ment OF Its affairs.
At the time the bank closed its
doors, August z. 1905, its affairs seem
ed TO be in an inextricable tangle. and
II was not believed that IL could be
made to pay more than thirty-hve or
forty cents on the dollar, despite the
fact that its assets were considerably
In excess of it's liabilities. Much of
the property listed under the head OF
assets was vague and shadowy, and
there seemed to be but small hope of
realizing upon It, but by the shrewd'
vigorous action. first by the assignee.
and later by the committee, marvellous
results were obtained and money be-
gan TO come In from sources previous
ly deemed Impossible, which was ap-
piled to wiping out the debts of the
bank.
The amount OF interest collected by
the assignee and the committee ex-
ceeded the total expense of closing up
the affairs Of the institution by more
than $500. a record unriyalied In
such cases.
- The report OF the committee as
filed with the district clerk is as fol-

RETIRES FROM GREAT
WESTERN COAL COMPANY

Frank D. Heath has sold all of his
Interest and holdings in the Great
Western Coal company and retired
from all connection with the concern.
Since the organization of the COM
pany three years ago, Mr.. Heath has
been its president and general mana
ger and through him its mines have
taken front rank among the coal pro-
ducers of the Canon City district. Mr..
Heath held a very large block of
stock in the company, and he is under
stood to have received something like
$50, 900 for his interest.
Through Mr.. Heath's enterprise,
one of the most thriving coal camps
in Fremont county has grown up
about the mines at Heathton, and it
is safe to say that the company has
entered upon an era of prosperity that
must pay big dividends to the stock
holders.
Mr.. Heath is now in a position TO
give his undivided attention to the

railway proposition.

Event in the Stirring Career Of Capt

Capt Fred NJ. Hammer. the newly
elected head OF the National Associa-

ton largely represented in Boston.

called by the naval veterans. started
his sea-faring life at a very tender
age, sailing from his native place.
Trondhjem. when IA years old.
After touching az various ports in
the East Indies and South America. he
arrived in Boston I'm the winter Of
1861, one of the crew OF the ship
Dolphin of Bath. Ne. from Calcutta.
II was at a time when the govern
ment needed men in the navy.
The day after his arrival he en-
listed and was rushed 70 New York.
where he was assigned TO duty on the
steamer Sumter. This vessel was on
the blockade of Charleston and in the
NASSAU sound. below Savannah.
where he was wounded In the left
leg. He had been on board the sum

After 10 months on the Sumter he
was accepted as one OF the volunteers

afterward transferred to the blockade
