FOR SECOND N. E. CHURCH

The architects plans for the Second
N. E. church. colored. now being
erected at the southeast corner Of
Macon avenue and Tenth street, were
drawn by A. C. Jensen and imply a
most convenient and attractive stric-
ture. Mr.. Jensen's wide experience as
an architect and builder enabled him
to conserve every available square foot
of interior space and use 1t to the best
advantage, and, as a result. the audi
torium will be a model of its kind. The
lecture room. kitchen. ETC.. are in the
basement and are ample for all or
dinary requirements OF the congrega-
ton. The building is being erected OF
concrete blocks. and, when complet-
ed, will be admirably situated for
church purposes. The ofncials Of the
congregation are greatly pleased with
the adaptability of Mr.. Jensen's plans

the pioneers OF Colorado, coming to
this state from Spring Garden, JET
ferson county. Illinois. nearly thirty
eight years ago. They settled on a
ranch near Wetmore, in Custer county,
and remained there until few months
ago when they removed here to make
their home with their daughter. Al
though they are beginning to feel the
infirmities of age Mr.. and Mrs. Blakes-
lee are remarkably we'll preserved,
physically and mentally. and enter
into the enjoyments OF life with all the
relish and enthusiasm Of tyounger peo-
pie.
Altogether Mr.. and Mrs. Blakeslee
have between sixty and seventy chill
dren, grandchildren and great grand

Of the aged couple being present to
take part in the festivities. The as
semblage Thursday night was re-
stricted to the relatives and imme-
diate neighbors, but was. nevertheless,
a very delightful affair In all respects.
The hope OF all who have the honor Of
Mr.. and Mrs. Blakeslee's acquaintace
is that they may live to enjoy many
more anniversaries of their wedding
day under an equally pleasant en-
vironment

HERMAN GRAVES KILLED
BOB CAT IN SHAW CANON

Monday afternoon as Herman and
Carl Graves, aged fourteen and eleven
respectively, were riding in Shaw can
on, four or five miles northwest Of
town, they saw a bob cat, or lynx,
about sixty yards on the trail, down
which the ponies were picking their
way. Herman had a % caliber target
rife with him and quickly dismounting
was able to get shot at the cat as
It vas running up the mountain side.
The shot was a remarkably lucky one
and passed through the shoulders of
the animal, rendering Its escape i'm
possible. Realizing that the cat could
not get away young Graves walked to-
ward it for the purpose of getting with
In closer range. but was warned not
to approach too closely by the aggres-
sive disposition of the animal, whose
fighting instinct was now thoroughly
aroused. In spite Of its wound 1t
made a determined effort to turn the
tables on young Graves and become it
self the hunter instead of the hunted
and was only prevented from carrying
out this program by a we'll directed
bullet, which entered the brain and put
an end to its pugnacity.
The animal, which weighed nearly
thirty pounds, was tied across the back
of the saddle and brought home as a
trophy Of the adventure Of which the
boys are justly proud. 1t was female

KNOBS o. TENNESSEE.

The beautiful comedy drama, Knobs
O'Tennessee, which is to be presented
here Friday, August 18th by the W. J.
est and most popular plays ever writ
ten by that master mind of the dramat-
ic art, Mr. Hal Reid.
Knobs O'Tennessee, Mr.. Reid's lat
est play, is said to be even better than
either Human Hearts" or Roanoke"
by the same author, which will be re-
membered with pleasure by every one
who witnessed either Of them. The
scenes Of Knobs O. Tennessee are laid
amid the foothills of the mountains OF
Tennessee. which are noted for their
beautiful scenery and are Inhabited
by the moonshiners OF that state whose
inherited belief that they have per-
feet right to make moonshine whiskey,
regardless of the government laws to
the contrary. keeps them at constant
war with the government secret ser
vice men.
The play abounds with exciting cli-
makes and comedy situations, and has
n beautiful love story running through
1t from beginning to end. One solid
car load OF scenery Is carried by the
Swain company and they give the en-
tire show the same as they did in the
big theares throughout the east. The
entire production has been placed un-
der a mammoth waterproof tent for
the summer months. The Swain COM
pany travel in their own private cars,
carry their own horses and everything
necessary to produce the play prop

ARRIVED IN CANON CITY
FORTY.THREE YEARS AGO

W. H. Mcclure, who is one of the
best known of Canon -City's pioneers,
arrived here forty-three years ago to-
day when there was neither grass,
trees, or anything else in the town,
except jack rabbits. cactus and sage
hens. Mr.. Mcclure nearly always eel
ebrates the anniversary of his arrival
here but did not this year for the rea-
son that his brother, James E. Nc
Clure, who was also one of the riginal
senters, was out Of town.
Mr.. Mcclure came to Canon City
from Appanoose county, Ia, with a
party OF twenty-five families, contain
ing altogether nearly one hundred peo-
Pile. They came across the plains in
prairie schooners" and had a most
adventurous trip. The Indians were
troublesome at that period and were
a source Of much annoyance to the lit
tie band OF settlers who were the ad-
vance guard of civilization.
There were only three families Of
white people here when the Mcclure
colony arrived, most of the inhabitants
having gone back to the states to take
sides in the Civil war which was rag
ing at that time. Mr.. Mcclure has
lived to see a wonderous transforma-
ton in this western country and Is
able to realise, better than most peo-
pie, the vivifying effects Of water upon
a dry and barren soil. Mr.. Mcclure Is
