ANNUAL LUNCHEON OF
THE DICKENS CLUB

The annual round table dinner of
the members of the Canon City Dick
ems Club in honor of the anniversary
of the authors birth was held at the
home of Mrs. Robert S. Lewis, 429
Greenwood avenue, at noon today, with
eighteen ladies present. The dinner
was served i'll seven courses and was
a superb affair. Each guest was dres-
sed to represent some character de-
picted by the great English novelist,
and the scene presented was a faithful
portrait of the people mirrored in his
books. The table decorations were
English ivy and red geraniums, the
latter being Dickens favorite flower.
Last year the club dinner was held
with Mrs. n. F. Carrier, and two years
ago with Mrs. James H. Peabody at
the executive mansion in Denver. The
Canon City Dickens Club is the Oldest
in the United States, the next oldest
being the celebrated "All Around Dick
ems Club" of Boston, Massachusetts.
The out of town guests present at
today's function were Mrs. N. F. Han
dy OF Denver and Mrs. Judge Bradley
of Florence, both of whom are mem-
hers and formerly resided in this city.

SECURED MANY OPTIONS
ON PRIVATE PROPERTY

During the recent visit here OF C. c.
Conkie, general right of way agent for
the Denver and Rio Grande railroad
company. options were secured by him
on all OF the property north of the
railroad tracks to the alley in the
block between Ninth and Tenth streets
which will probably be made the site
of the ID. & r. G. freight depot when
work begins on the new passenger
station. Mr.. Conkle went about his
task so quietly and conducted his ne
gotiations SO automatically that few
people were aware of the character OF
his mission In town until his work was
completed. The structure now used
as freight building, as well as the
present passenger depot. Will probab-

extremely disagreeable, in fact nearly

Mr.. Umbenhauer is one of the young
members of the American Bankers
Association and he attracted consid-
cradle attention by the strength and
of his financial views at
the meeting of that organization in st.

Philadelphia as one of the best finan-
ciers in that city. The visitors will
probably be taken for an automobile
trip to the top Of the Royal Gorge to-
day. - --r--

MAY HAVE CHAUTAUQUA
ASSEMBLY NEXT SUMNER

j. X. Ellison, of Lincoln, Nebraska,

eau of Boston and Chicago. addressed

bly, here along the lines SO success
fully pursued in the older states. Mr..
Ellison is making tour OF the west
In the interest OF the Chautauqua idea
and is returning to Chicago from a
business trip to Salt Lake City and

siderable enthusiasm in the matter.
Mr.. Ellison stated that the Redpath
Lyceum Bureau, which he represented
would give the people OF Canon City
ten days Chautauqua course with
first class talent next summer, pro-
vided 1t was given guarantee that
five hundred season tickets at two
dollars and a half apiece would be
sold before July 1st, and that suitable
grounds for the assembly with water
privileges and police protection were
afforded 1t free of cost
Mr.. Ellison stated that the expense
to the bureau of holding a Chautauqua
here during the period mentioned
would approximate $4,000, but that it
was willing to assume very large
part of the risk OF making 1t success.
There are hundreds OF Chautau-
quns in the Eastern and Mississippi
valley state" said Mr.. Ellison, "and
practically all of them are as success
ful financially as they are socially and
intellectually. They do much to ad-
yertise community. and Chautau-
qua town is becoming to be very gem
orally recognized as a desirable resi-
dence place as well as good business
place"

in favor OF the proposition, and on
motion, President Hutton was in

accept Mr.. Ellison's proposition, the
Cbautauqua will probably be held here
the last week in July and will afford
a splendid program of intellectual tall
ent and entertainment, among the lec-
turers being such men as William ].

ASK CONGRESS TO DELAY
ACTION ON MAIL BILL

At a special meeting of the Canon
City Merchants Association Tuesday
afternoon, H. S. Maddox, local agent
of the Denver and Rio Grande Rail-
road company, was present and asked
that the association take some action
in relation to the bill now before con-
gress under the provisions of which
the compensation to be given the rail-
roads for carrying the United States
mails will be cut from Is to IS per
cent below the price they are receiy-
ing under the existing contract with
the government
Mr.. Maddox stated that the proposed
reduction might have a seri0ns effect
on the business jnterests of Colorado
by giving the people o. the state a less
satisfactory railway mail service than
that which they now enjoy. and he re-
commended that the association send
telegram to the Colorado delegation
in congress urging its members to use
their influence to secure a postpone
ment of the vote on the bill until it
could be ascertained whether such re-
duction would be inimical to the COM
mercial interests OF the west or not
1t was urged that the mails from
New York city now received in Denver
and other Colorado points in "a hours
less time than they did four years ago
and that a reduction in compensation
to the railroads might result in the
restoration of the old schedule There
was some opposition to Mr.. Maddox's
petition, but a motion was finally
adopted authorizing the president and
secretary of the association to send a
telegram to Congressman Brooks, Bo-
nynge and Hogg, requesting them to
endeavor to secure postponement of
the vote on the measure until proper
of its effects on the busi-
ness interests of the state could be
made
A telegram was also sent to the
general assembly in Denver asking
that a joint resolution of the above
tenor be adopted by it and sent to the
Colorado congressman in Washington.

Col. Willis Wood OF Kansas City, ar
rived here from the east on Denver &
Rio Grande train No. s yesterday
and were driven to the Strathmore
hotel. which will be their headquar-
ters during their stay in town.
In the course OF a brief interview
with Mr.. Heath a representative of
The Daily Record learned that his
mission to Philadelphia had been an
emineptly successful one and that
there was no longer any doubt of the
construction of the Canon City and
Royal Gorge electric railway, as am
pie capital had been interested in the
enterprise to carry, It to completion
within the next four months. 1t has
been decided to organize a company
for the construction and operation OF
the road under the laws Of Colorado,
instead OF New Jersey as originally
planned, and steps to that end will be
taken as soon as the preliminaries can
be arranged. The proposed company
will have a capitalization OF 81, 900, 900,
of which there will be 100000 prefer
red stock and a similar amount Of
common stock. ]. T, Budd. president
of the Third National Bank OF Phila-
delphIa will be assistant treasurer Of
the company.
THE first thing to be done," said
Mr.. Heath, will be ito organize the
company, and this we expect to do as
soon as possible, MS we hope to be en-
gagged in the actual construction Of
the road within two weeks from this
time. or course we are going to set
tie with the creditors of the old COM
pany first and then we will give our
attention to the building OF the road,
which as you know. will not require
great deal of time when we once get
to work"
Application has been made to the
village council of South Canon for a
franchise to build through certain
streets of that suburb. "and II is
said Mr.. Heath. to get that
fixed up next Monday night, as well
as the right to use certain portions OF
the public road outside the city limits.
Both Mr.. Umbenhauer and Col.
Wood are greatly pleased with our
Colorado weather. which is in marked
to the kind they have been
having in the east for several weeks.

LANDSCAPE GARDENER HAS IDEAL
PLANS FOR BEAUTIfY|NC THE CITY
Berry Who Does the Fancy Work General Palmer Colo
Springs Will the Civic improvement League

John Berry, professional iand-
scape gardener of Colorado Springs,
was here yesterday at the instance of
General William ]. Palmer, for the
purpose of making suggestions to the
Civic Improvement League in carrying
out its ambition to make Canon "a
city beautiful" Mr.. Berry's visit is
primarily to discuss with Warden
Cleghorn and the members of the Lea
que ways and means for the beautifi-
cation of the penitentiary park and
the Canon gardens, which are to be
greatly improved during the coming
spring and summer. Under Mr.. Berry's
direction elaborate plans have been
prepared for the embel,ishnlent of the
park and the barren stretch of land
along the Rio Grande tracks from
First street to Fourth street, which
when carried into effect. win render
Il en- very attractive to the eye. There
is much of originality in the plans
submitted by Mr.. Berry. and their de-
velopment will give Canon City q
prominence for beauty among the
towns of this part of the state.
Although Mr.. Berry has lived in
Colorado for 26 years and has devoted
himself to landscape gardening all of
that time, this is his first trip to Canon
City. He says few places in the state
have as many natural attractions as
Canon City, and that by bringing art
to mans assistance it can be made
one of the most attractive communi-
ties in the state. He was pleased to
find SO much of civic pride among the
people and says that it promises great
things for the future In speaking of
the carnival at the skating rink last
week he said: The great success of
the affair shows that the people here
are thoroughly in earnest in the
movement for civic improvement. A
carnival, such as you had here last
Friday night, would not have been
half so successful in Colorado Springs
for a similar purpose as it was in
Canon City. People here seem to have
lots of faith and confidence in the
town and that means a lot to any
community"
Mr.. Berry spoke very compliment
tary of the ladies of the Civic Inn
provement League, whom he said were
capable of doing great things when
they tried.
What General Palmer has done for
Colorado Springs the people here can
do for Canon City," declared Mr..
Berry, "and l believe they will do a
great deal if given the proper en-
