The Young Mems Christian Asso-
citation membership contest, which has
been waged since the first of the cur
rent month by the rival organizations,
the Blues" and the Reds" was
brought to a close Tuesday night with
gratifying results.
The campaign of the blues" was
conducted under the captaincy of Al.
Morrison, assisted by Chas. W. Van
Patten in the capacity of lieutenant
The Reds" were led by A H. White
as captain and Prof. H. E. Smith as
lieutenant. In consequence Of the can
vass made by these contending forces
there are now upon the membership
rolls of the association the names OF
two hundred and eighty men and
boys, of which approximately two
hundred are either new names, or re-
newals. In addition the girls Saturday
afternoon gymnasium class was sub
stantially increased and now has fifty
members.
The contest was a strenuous one
from the beginning and at no time
until it closed could the winning side
be forecast with any degree Of GER
tainty In a competition of any kind
only one of the contestants can be a
winner and so it was in this case.
The laurels were awarded to the
Blues" but the margin upon its tri-
umph rested was a small one, the
relative standing being 1883 points
for the victor to 100 for the van
quished.
The finals were announced at the
gymnasium by Secretary Gray at 8
O'Clock Tuesday night in the pres
ence of an assemblage of fully one
hundred association men and boys,
and the statement evoked tremendous
applause, the partisans of the Reds
cooperating with the followers Of the
Blues" in expressing appreciation OF
the good work accomplished. 1t was
an epoch making event in the chron-
icles of the Canon City association
and all joined heartily in its cele-
bration. The contest throughout was
one of emulation and good natured
rivalry. and, in a practical way. di-
rected public attention to the Y. N. C
A., and what it is doing for the moral
welfare OF the community. 1t is not
too much to say that the Young Mems
Christian Association in Canon City
is upon a frmer foundation at the
present time that at any period in its
history.

WANT TO SEE THE
COTTONWOOD SYSTEM

mittee is now practically exhausted,
and there is still important work to
be done. Much more work, it is
claimed, will be necessary next year.
Mayor Seely made a plea for the
library. He is a member of the lib
rary board and feels a keen interest
in the success of that institution. The
Finance committee had trimmed down
the library appropriation from $500
to $1,000. This is all that the library
ordinance compels Council to pay.
Mayor Seely thinks this Is not enough.
The books in the library are getting
worn, and there are no funds to re-
place them. He wanted part Of the
extra mill to be applied to the library.
Several other Dads want it on the
streets. The matter will be decided
when the funds come in.
The much mooted sewer tapping Or
dinance came up for second reading
and was passed. Several of its fea-
lures were discussed. Whether or
not it includes business houses, was
brought up. Some other details. it is

NELLIE FELTER RECITAL
WAS A SPLENDID SUCCESS

are to be felicitated on the success.
financial and artistic. Of the recital
given at the First Methodist church
Monday night 1t was a distinct tri-
umph in every respect, particularly
for Miss Felter. who enthralled the
audience at the beginning of the pro-
gram by her mastsrly playing Of the
violin and held It captive until the
close Of the entertainment It was
Miss Felter's first public appearance
as . violinist since her return from
abroad, where for the last three years
she has been a pupil Of the most emin-
ent German, Austrian and Bohemian
instructors on that queen OF musical
Instruments, and fully redeemed the
high anucipations Of her friends in
ments.
The coming Of Miss Felter to the
platform was the signal for an ap-
plause which left no doubt as to the
expectancy OF the audience, and at
the same time was q manifestation Of
Its friendliness and good will toward
her. which she acknowledged by a
graceful bow. The assemblage was
like a passive camp waiting for some
master to walk In and take possession.
Miss Felter's debut was not unlike the
victory OF Caesar, and In common with
the illustrious ltoman. she might have
arrogated to herself the sentiment
contained in tae famous Latin phrase,
.'veni. viii. vici:" came. I saw. I

which had assembled to do her honor.

I feared, are not properly set forth
amended. 1t is too important mat
ter, Attorney Taylor says. to be tam
pered with. Additional legislation, he
thinks, will be better remedy for
any deficiencies than to imperial the
validity of the present measure.
And then came a refreshing person
age in the form of Barney Ginsberg,
a junk dealer. Barney wanted to deal
in Canon City junk. He had been in
formed that he must be a resident to
take out junk license. He has his
yard in Fremont county, some distance
out, and claims that he has not the
power of ubiquity. Hence he asked
that the residence matter be waived.
1t seems this residence ordinance was
passed by some worthy who tried to
corrall the junk market hereabouts.
This man paid for the publication of
the ordinance, and then never took
out a license. Barney will be given
his license and the usual protection
afforded licensed junk dealers.
Just before adjournment Mayor
Seely remembered the bill of City En-
gineer c. l.. Milton. which had been
held up for two weeks at the request
of Councilman Okey. By motion this
bill was allowed ID full, and the mo-
ton passed without dissenting vote.
Mr.. Okey having asked to be excused
a short time before, was not present
when the action was taken.
And then they adjourned.

In such event the health oficer should
