Mrs. Cafferi and her husband were

Mrs. Cafferi's mother arrived here

her release was granted.
Mother and daughter left for the

that accompany good health. A ply

FOURTH OF JULY QUIETLY
OBSERVED IN CANON CITY

Independence Day was very quietly
observed in Canon City on Thursday,
hundreds of people going out OF town
to celebrate the occasion. A great
many went to Florence, Cripple Creek
Clyde and other places to which there
were railroad excursions. others pic
nicked in the mountains or remained
at home to enjoy themselves under
the shade OF their own vine and fig
tree. 1t was an unusually hot day.
and the majority OF people found more
pleasure at home or at some small
gathering OF friends and neighbors In
the mountains. within easy driving
distance OF town, than In the mad
dening throng" OF a formal celebra-
ton.
The spirit OF 1776, however, was not
dead and throughout the day Young
America was busy with explosives OF
various kinds. The roar OF the can
non cracker and the dynamite cart
ridge, coupled with the din Of lesser
noise creating devices, was heard in
the land, sometimes to the annoyance
Of the nervous.
A thunder storm, accompanied with
nice shower Of rain. cooled the at
mosphere about 6 O'Clock. and In the
evening nearly everybody had q small
fireworks display OF their own, and
rockets and Roman candles were to
be seen in every direction after night
fall.
There were no accidents OF any
consequence and the day was to the
people OF Canon City one Of more than
ordinary enjoyment and restfulness.
At the penitentiary the convicts
were given a special breakfast and
dinner, and In the afternoon a theatri-
cal entertainment. For breakfast they
were given beefsteak with hot rolls
and butter, coffee, etc. At dinner the
menu included roast beef, and gravy
mashed potatoes, bread and butter
rhubarb pie, young onions and coffee.
They were given all the lemonade
they could drink during the day.

LIKELY TO BE BIG MINING
EXCITEMENT HERE

Developments at the Copper King
mining property at Dawson City. six
miles southwest OF here, during the
last week point to the probability Of
a big mining excitement there In the
near future. perhaps within the next
few days. Some marvellously rich
ore has been taken out there recently
and 1t is believed that a large body of
1t is about TO be uncovered. Assays
show that II runs from $l2 900 to $l5.-
200 In gold to the ton, and It is
thought that the lode which produced
such astonishing results at the time
OF the location of the Dawson mining
camp has been rediscovered.
Messrs. f. c. Hiatt and son, Roy.
and J. w. Pringle. Iessees of the
Copper King. have known for some
time that they had a good thing in the
property, but only within the last few
days have they been able to form any
thing like n correct estimate OF its
value.
Additional men will be put to work
on the Copper King on Monday. and
It Is hinted thai some astonishing de-
yelopments are likely to take place
very soon thereafter. A gentleman
who has Investigated the matter pretty
thoroughly remarked TO the writer this
afternoon that II was by no means
improbable that one of the richest
gold mines in the state was In sight
OF Canon City. The Hats have 30
much confidence In the Copper King
that they sent a few days ago for
Ivan Hiatt to come home and help
work the property. Some OF the finest
speciments of free milling gold ore
ever seen here has been taken from
the Copper King property during the
past week. The Copper Boy. which In
located in the same vicinity. Is to be
developed by Its owners with a view
OF finding the same rich vein which
runs through the Copper King A
gang of men will be put to work on
the Copper Boy as soon as arrange
ments can be made to do SO.

MAKING THE MOST OF LIFE.
Bishop spaIdine's Advice on tho Great
Problem,

Problem,
Day by day parents and children are
confronted with the great problem of
life, What shall l do with my boys
or my girls?' as asked by the parents.
What shall l do?" says boy or
girl. Bishop spaldlng begins his lee
ture on opportunity thus:
How shall live? How shall I
make the most Of my life? How shall
l become a man and do a mans work ?
This and not politics or. trade or wer
| or pleasure is the question. The pri-
mary consideration is not how one
shall get a living, but how. he shall
live, for If he live rightly. whatever
is needful he shall easily find. Life
is opportunity. and therefore it's whole
circumstance may be made to serve
the purpose of those who are bent
on self-improvement. on making them
selves capable of doing thorough
work"
And work it is that wins. Any other
way of winning is unworthy of con-
sideration. A true man would not
/ want to win in any other way. Life
is full of opportunities to labor. and
the willing worker is sure of success
Such a worker has never failed, never
will fail
BY all this neither the Bishop nor
