PLEASANT EXCURSION TO
CRIPPLE CREEK SUNDAY

More than two hundred people from
Canon City and Florence visited the
Cripple Creek district Sunday and
spent delightful day above the
clouds.
To many this was the first visit to
the famous gold camp. Gov. Peabody
headed the excursionists by riding
with the driver in the front engine. 1t
took two engines to pull the train. The
excursionists returned home in the
early evening and were loud in their
praises OF the management of the c.
G. & c. c. road for the pleasant jour
ney.
One man gathered samples OF the
Mary Cashen a common ordinary mine
that is located between the Gold Coin
and the Portland, two famous produc-
ers. and the story Of which induced
some OF his friends to invest more
than a hundred thousand dollars. The
Mary Cashen. while 1t has a produc-
tive dump, has never been a heavy
dividend payer. And in this way many
OF the excursionists found interest and
diversion.

An OPEN SHOOTING SEASON
on DOES THIS YEAR

For the first time in many years the
protection afforded does and fawns
in Colorado by the law will be with
drawn when the regular deer shooting
season opens on October 1st.
This was one of the changes made
by the legislature last winter, although
many sportsmen are not aware of the
fact The section covering the deer
shooting season of the game law reads
as follows:
The open season for deer, with or
without horns, shall begin Oct. and
end Oct. 20 of each year"
The reason for the change lies in
the fact that the immunity granted the
does from the guns of hunters for so
many years has been the means of in
creasing the females beyond the pro-
portion intended by the statutes. The
bucks on the other hand have been
killed of rapidly and seem to be in
danger of determination in the more
thickly settled portions of the state.
Numerous requests have been made
to the game commissioner during the
last year or two for an open season
on does as they are plentiful on all of
the deer ranges 1t is believed that
if hunters are offered an opportunity
of shooting the first deer seen by them,
many will not be able to resist the
temptation and wait until they get a
shot at a deer with horns. The bucks
will thus be given a greater chance to
multiply. Reports from over the state
say that deer are plentiful in the US
ual hunting grounds, does being espec-
tally thick. Each hunter is allowed
only one deer, as usual, and when 4
doe is shot it means that the hunter 10

TALKING ABOUT A NEW
ROAD TO ROYAL GORGE

The construction of a road to the
summit of the south wall of the Royal
Gorge is a project much talked OF
these August days. The advantages oi
such a road for sight-seers and the
picnicking public would be many
Messrs. W. B. Rowland, James Turn
hill and A. r. Livingston were up that
way Sunday. They rode horseback
and are delighted with the trip. The
view from the south side of the gorge
is much more extensive than from the
north side.
The hanging bridge and about a
mile and a half of the track
can been seen from this point. The
construction of a road on this side Of
the canon would not be difficult en-
gineering feat, and would, without
doubt, be greatly appreciated. The
Gorge is one of Canon's greatest as
sets, both for the enjoyment OF home
people and tourists. and anything that
tends to enhance its charming grand
eur is a public benefit. Plans for the
new road may crystalize in the near
future

LANG WAS 4 BURGLAR
As WELL As A FORGER

Mrs. Stearns. keeper Of the room
ing house at 4l5h Main street, this
morning found the evidence that
proves almost conclusively that Harry
Lang. the paroled convict who mulcted
number OF business men last week
by his clever forgeries. was the small
burglar of the week previous. While
cleaning out q stove that stood in the
room occupied by Lang. Mrs. Stearns
found the box belonging to the ring
stolen from Sartor's cigar store. Lang
hSd left the cover to the box In the
show case when he took the jewel, and
when Mrs. Stearns presented the box
to Mr.. Sartor 1t was found that they
matched perfectly.
The officers have not yet located
Lang but 1t Is only question Of time
till he will be brought back to an
swer for his crimes.

RETURNED PROn DELIGHTFUL
TRIP no CALIFORNIA

Mrs J. j. Schultz, Miss Grace
Schultz and the formers two sons
came home Friday night after a pleas
ing visit of six weeks to California
during which they saw most Of the
Francisco to San Diego. Miss
Schultz, who is stenographer and
bookkeeper in the office of the Daily
Record, says she enjoyed every min
ute of her vacation and that her ex-
periences on the Pacific coast were of
the most agreeable character, but in
spite Of it all is glad to get back to
Colorado. There are some beautiful
towns in southern California accord
ing to Miss Schultz, but none of them
in her judgment have more natural ad-
vantages or more attractive environ
ment than Canon City. They met
many old friends in Los Angeles and
the renewal of former associations
was one of the pleasant features Of the
trip. They visited San Francisco and
Oakland on the way home for the pur-
pose of learning from actual observa-
ton something of the ruin and wreck
age produced by the great earthquake
of April, 1906. San Francisco presented
to them a most detected and discour-
aging appearance, but is being rebuilt
as rapidly as men and money can ac-
complish it. Many OF the down town
streets are yet choked with debris but
are being cleared as fast as circum-
stances will permit In the opinion Of
Miss Schultz it will be good many
years before San Francisco is restored
to its former glory. although she thinks
the splendid civic spirit and confidence
of the people will bring about that
result in course OF time.

Bicycles ON Sidewalks.
In The Harrison Block

An open letter to the city officials:
Sirs: Possibly because you have
nothing Of Importance before you CO,
you have turned the guns upon the
lonely suburban wheelman. In all
kindness and in all fairness why is
this offense singled out when there
are constantly occurring fragrant vio-
lations of really important ordinances
to which no attention is paid For
example, two will at once be thought
of by any observer. First, the prac-
tice of leaving horses unhitched on
the streets. Second. the waste of city
water. There is absolutely no excuse
for ignoring these and they are not
only dangerous but are mighty ex-
pensive to the public.
Nine hundred and ninety-nine times
out of 900 bike on the walks harms
no one and 1t is a wonderful help to
a poor tired fellow to use the walks
when the streets are almost impase-
able. Again, II the ordinance must be
enforced why not make it apply to
all? l have personally observed this
practice and excepting in very muddy
weather have never seen a bicycle
ridden upon the downtown walks ex-
cepting by newsboys. Why do you
make an exception Of them? They
are simply working their trade the
same as my solicitor or your mes
senger or your delivery boy. Yet
they whiz pell NELL along the walks at
their sweet will to the constant dan
ger and disturbance of pedestrians
The ordinance is all right: We need
safeguards against the human hog
but beg OF you to be reasonable. En-
force the ordinance where it is need
ed but away out in the suburbs where
the roads are rough and there is not
a pedestrian in sight permit a wheel
on the sidewalks-the beautiful walks
that cost so much to build. Should
the privilege be abused to the detri-
ment of pedestrians let the violator
be soaked to the limit
Remember that We have no other
means for the laboring man to go
quickly to and from his work and
that by being as lax in the enforce
ment of this law as you are in the
others mentioned no injury will be
done and that you will confer ben
eft where 1t Is needed. If you must
show authority just tackle the viola
tons mentioned, they need 1t. Be-
sides they will not require the waste
of energy in detective work. (Better
expend this in putting in that water
system you promised us).
You will remember that the other
council let up on prosecuting this ord
nance. Do you know why? There
is an old, old story about the fellow
that had something in his eye.
Respectfully,
s. O. LOMAN

Ernest f Smith OF the local letter
carriers service is spending his va
cation doing development work on
some mineral claims he owns in the
Greenhorn mountains southwest of
town.
There are few men In the community
better versed in mineralogy than Mr..
Smith and none who have a greater
faith in the mining possibilities of this
section OF the Arkansas valley than
he Mr.. Smith took n special course Of
study in metallurgy at the University
OF Arkansas and since coming to Col
orado has had a good deal of actual
experience in the field. which has made
him at once a theoretical and practical
miner. For some time past Mr..
Smith has been interested In the cop
per ores OF the Greenhorn mountains
and has given n great deal Of though,
to the possibilities OF their utilization
Npr commercial purposes. He says
there IL a large area southwest OF town
on which there are outcropping of a
low grade OF copper ore and he ex-
presses the opinion that the time Is
not very remote when 1t can be work
ed to advantage.
Mr.. Smith says that copper Is destined
to play an important part In civiliza-
ton and will become one OF the worlds
most useful and valuable metals. and.
for that reason. cheapened processes
for Its reduction will be discovered
enabling the smelters to handle ore
at 4 profit which are now regarded rs
worthless.
Mr.. Smith has a claim on Grape
creek. not far from the old Ute Indian
burying ground. which he says shows
something like twelve per cent copper
at less than twenty feet from the sur
face. The vein is large one and he
computes that he has one hundred and
nifty tons OF ore now on the dump. He
has done assessment work on the
claim for several years and 10 conn
dent that he will live to see II expand
