DOUBLE TRACK WILL MEAN
MORE TRAIN CREWS HERE

The double tracking Of the Denver
& Rio Grande railroad between here
and Pueblo will mean much for Canon
City. more perhaps. to people here
than to those of any other point along
the line OF the proposed improve
ments. 1t has been reported lately on
apparently good authority that the
company is contemplating a double
track from Denver to Pueblo. which
will mean all the way to this city, as
plans looking to the construction Of
such an enterprise from Pueblo here
have already been agreed upon.
1t Is understood that when this Is
done Canon City will be given an
added prominence by the company,
possibly made a division headquarters.
The company cannot under any cir
cumstances build an additional track
through the Royal Gorge. and this
city must always remain the western
terminus of such double track system
as it may have on the eastern slope
of the continental divide. Canon City
is now the headquarters for several
"..urn around crews on the Denver
& Rio Grande road and the number
will be increased as the trackage IA
cilities between here and Denver are
improved

THE CHAMBERLAIN ARTESIAN
WELL IS AGAIN FLOWING

The Chamberlain Artesian we'll,
which was sunk by County Treasurer
C. J. Fredrickson and his associates
on Eight Mile Park a couple of years
ago, has been reopened and is again
producing something like half a cubic
foot OF water a second. Three or four
months ago the flow Of water from
the well suddenly stopped and the
owners were unable to furnish an ex-
PLANTATION for 1t, although 1t was sur
missed that something had been drop
ped into it to shut OF the flow. Re-
Gently a derrick was set up and a
drill let down the caseing for several
hundred feet where 1t came in con-
tact with an iron plug which rendered
it impossible for the water to rise to
the surface. On removing the impedi-
ment the water again began to flow
alta the old rate.
The Chamberlain we'll is located
about a mile and three quarters south
east of the JEFF Tong ranch and de-
monstrates beyond question that there
Is plenty of artesian water to be had
by boring for 1t.
Another we'll is being sunk on the
property owned by Mr.. Fredrickson.
W. 8. Glass and Senator Campbell in
the same neighborhood and it is ex-
pected that a flow of water will be
struck in a few days as the drillers
have penetrated the Dakota sandstone
under which the water is almost in
variably found. The opening OF ar
tesian wells on Eight Mile Park sug
gest great possibilities for irrigation
In that section and will ultimately re-
suit in the reclamation OF large areas
OF semi-arid land.

PROFESSOR PADDOCK TREATS
SUBJECT OF TOMATO BLIGHT

Fort Collins, Aug. 5.-Tomato Blight
rs the subject treated by Prof. Pad
dock OF the agricultural college In
the current bulletin issued at the in
stitution. Prof. Paddock says:
"It is about this time Of the year
that the blight OF tomatoes begins to
be noticeable In the fields. Plants
which have made a fairly good growth
gradually remains small and ripens
prematurely. Other plants die In the
earlier stages Of growth, and In fact,
all sorts OF conditions may be seen in
the field. This disease Is widespread,
and the total loss to the growers
throughout the state Is large.
Investigations in regard to the cause
OF the blight were begun at the Colo
RADIO Agricultural College some time
ago and the result o fthe work points
strongly to the following conclusions:
The disease Is due to fungus.
which attacks the plants for the most
part in the seed bed. This being the
case, there can be no remedy for the
plant after 1t Is once attacked. This
Is true. for the reason that the fungus
grows on the inside OF the plants and
evidently enters only the rootlets Of
young plants. By examining the It's
sues OF young plant with a micro
scope. the threads of the fungus may
be seen clogging the cells where they
Interfere with the passage OF food
material.
At the present time, then, we see
no hope of ever being able to combat
this blight successfully In the field.
But we do hope to find a method OF
prevention by improving the sanitary
condition Of the seed beds. With this
end In view, we believe 1t will pay to
thoroughly clean and disinfect the
frames or fats In which the seeds are
planted. This may be done by washing
or spraying all Of the parts after the
dirt and soil have been removed. with
a strong solution OF copper sulphate.
Then fresh soil and manure should be
procured. which should also be ster-
ilized. This can best be done by
steam.
This can best be done at small cost
by fitting up sail system Of two-inch
iron pipes, which are to be placed In
the bottom OF a bed made for the pur-
pose. Three ten or twelve foot lengths
of pipe will be ample, and small holes
must be drilled in them about six
inches apart to allow steam to escape.
The pipes are now placed parallel to
each other and connected at both ends,
SO that they are about eighteen inches
apart.
The apparatus may be connected to
traction engine or other available
source OF steam supply. Soil should
be filled into the bed over the pipes
to the depth Of about one foot, then
the surface covered with gunny sacks
or some similar material.
II steam 10 turned ON for an hour,
the low organisms will be killed. and
plants which will be practically fres
! from blight should be raised In soil

COAL CREEK WILL soon
RESUME HER OLD v|C0R

Things are on the move at Coal
Creek and considerable building ac-
tivity is noticeable. The incorporated
part of the town has been resurveyed
and the old lines have been somewhat
re-established. 1t has been necessary
for the business houses that are going
up to be built back several feet from
the point on which they formerly
stood for the purpose of making the
streets wider. 1t is said the new
streets will be from twelve to four
teen feet wider than in other days of
the camp They were too narrow.
The work of excavating the base
ment for the Colorado Supply company
is in progress. The hole Is being dug
on the lot that for years was used
for livery stable purposes and owned
by ALT Salmon. The Supply company
expects to move one of its vacant store
building over from one Of the other
camps. 1t has already resumed busi-
ness in. shack but promises its pat
rons that it will have one of the incest
stores that Coal Creek has ever had
when the new building Is finished and
the new stock on the shelves.
Walter Lloyd, one of the pioneer
merchants of the camp, is rebuilding
and will again re-embark in mercan-
tile pursuits.
Charles Cowan, one of the leading
business men of the town, is rebuild
ing on the lot on which the old wag-
on shop stood. He is building him
self a home on the site on which his
store stood and his residence and
place of business will be adjoining in
future.
Grandma Fugate has either started
or will start rebuilding her boarding
house. Mrs. Fugate has been one of
the women OF the camp almost since
its in fancy and she does not feel like
quitting for the present at least.
Tom Pocoroni, an Italian, has re-
engaged in the grocery business. His
store was the last business house to
be devourde by Cames.

homes for themselves Some new
lumber is being used, but most of the
houses are beng bought in Florence
and moved up there. These houses
are of the cheaper class and ones

ENTHUSE: IN
MOvE:NE:N' 7

Everything points to very lively
interest in the approaching meeting
of prominent men to be held at Hell
ena for the purpose Of organizing a
state movement to boost Montana.
According to adNices from Helena,
r. r. Ixiiroy, of the Butte Evening
News, was a visitor in that city to at
tend the recent opening of the Broad
water hotel and he gave it as his OPP
inion that the meeting would be the
largest Of it's kind ever held in the
state and that deeds, not words,
would crown the efforts of the men
who will assemble at the state capitol
early in the month.
One OF the main things which will
be taken up will be the question Of
railroad rates and the discovery. if it
be possible. of some means to secure
equitable rates in comparison With
those of other states
Mr.. Tilroy stated that when he put
the query to prominent railroad
official as to why SO many of the spec
ial excursions from the east We're ar
ranged fer Washington every year,
he stated that it was because no state
organization existed here to present
the opportunities and attractions 10
the man with capital to invest.
With a state organization formed
for this purpose, and with concentrated
effort to secure excursions into the
state and to get rates from the rail-
roads, success seems bound to come,
according to Mr.. kilroy.
The meeting at Helena will be at
tended by representative body OF
men and as to the means of proceed
ure in the perfecting of an organiza-
ton, that will develope later. On this
matter Mr.. Kilroy said:
"I have no idea what shape the per-
manent organization may assume
That matter is all in the hands of the
mass meeting No more popular or
just way Of establishing state organi-
zation can be devised than by the as
sembling Of citizens from every sec
tion representing the various interests

suggestions. / have no doubt that ou1

He CAUGHT
PAT GROVE

Havre had a distinguished visitor
Monday in the person Of Captain of
Police AIcGraith of Butte, who stopped
over here between trains with his
prisoner, G. E. White, whom he is
taking to Seattle to be given up to
the proper authorities.
White took French leave from the
L. S. S. Maryland last April and had
been drifting about the world, fin
ally firing Of that and giving himself
up to the authorities at Butte.
Captain McGraith had the distinct
ion Of being one of the captors Of
the notorious bandid, Pat Grove in
Butte, and relates in an interesting
manner many incidents in the life of
Grove whom he later came to know
thoroughly.
One Of the stories which he told
while in Havre was that of Groves
witty answer when asked by the Of
ficers at Butte to relate how and why
he started upon a criminal career. He
stated that when but small boy he
went to work in a wholesale liquor
store and that he was sent down to
the cellar to unpack case of liquor.
Opening the box and removing the
packing he unearthed several fine bot
ties of Whiskey marked "Old Crow
''That's tol the old man. said the no
torious Pat and he forthwith should
cred the box and slipping out the
back way took it home to his father
as a present. When arraingned before
the police magistrate he pleaded as an
excuse that he thought the whiskey
was for Ills father as it was marked
old Crow"
This is but one of many stories told
by Captain McGrath of the man he
helped capture in Butte. The captain
expressed himself as always glad to
stop off in Havre, for he has mary
old friends and acquaintarces residing
here

HOW THE EAGLES

Havre has a very thrifty local ae
rie of the Fraternal Order OF Eagies
with large membership and it may

Of the following reported interview in
the Basin Progress, with State Sec
retary Morelles, of the Eagles, who re-
Gently paid that place a visit. The
Progress says: "Mr Morelles, who
is an exceedingly pleasant gentleman,
talked Interestingly to Progress re-
porter concerning Eagledom. Tnis
order was instituted only eight years
ago, has now attained membership
OF owe q half million members.
According 10 Mr.. Morales, its birth
and name was an accident. Some
young men in Seattle, very friendly
with one another, conceived the idea
Of starting a little organization which
should be mutually beneficial to them
and to their friends The story, pro-
perly authenticated, goes that they
held their first meeting and talked
matters over on a lumber pile After
two or three names had been pro-
posed one of them looked up and
saw an eagle flying overhead, and
calling his companions attention said
Let us call ourselves Eagles" The
name stuck, and from this small be-
ginning the present powerful order
has attained its great proportion.
