KINDNESS TO AN OLD
GENTLEMAN BRINGS REWARD

Miss Margaret Ella Thrasher, house
keeper at the Antlers hotel at Colora-
do Springs and sister of Mrs. Laura
A. Debord of 511. River street, this
city, has been named in the will of
the late Frank Tillotson, the Chicago
millionaire, who died a few months
ago in southern California. as one of
its beneficiaries and will receive un-
der its provisions the sum of $3.50. 900
in cash and interest bearing securi-
ties. This splendid bequest was un-
expected by Miss Thrasher and came
to her in consequence of little kind
nesses shown to Mr.. Tillotson during
his stay at the Antlers hotel, where
he was a guest for several years.
Miss Thrasher has occupied the po-
sition of housekeeper at various ho-
tells conducted by Mr.. Dunning, the
lessee of the Antlers, both in this
state and the east, particularly in
Chicago, and of which Mr.. Tillotson
was a frequent patron. Mr.. Tillot-
son suffered greatly from rheumatism
during the last few years of his life
ard in 1904 came to Colorado Springs
with the hope that the change of eli
mate would at least mitigate his trou-
Bile and established himself at the
Antlers hotel where he remained un-
til five or six months ago when he
went to California, dying there short
ly afterward.
Mr.. Tillotson had an antipathy for
hotel elevators and always used the
stairways in going to his room at the
Antlers, which was on the fourth
floor of the building. He was frequent
Iy assisted in going down the stair
ways by Miss Thrasher and was al
lowed many privileges not usually ac-
corded to guests, on account of his
aged and infirm condition.
That he appreciated the courtesies
extended to him by Miss Thrasher

Seed Rot of Potatoes.

Reports have already begun TO come
in OF seed potatoes rotting in the
ground This trouble is caused by a
fungus, or mould. that attacks the
piece of tuber in the ground on the cut
surface. The disease was SO bad last
year In some fields that ninety per
cent of the seed rotted in the ground.
In some cases this rot started so soon
as to prevent the pieces of tubers from
sprouting at ALL In other cases 1t
started later. rotted the seed. then the
fungus attacked the stem. Plants may
be found in any field during the sea-
son more or less affected with this
disease The plants lose their green
color and the edges of the leaves turn
yellow or die. II the stem be pulled
up. the bark will be found all right,
but the splitting OF the stem longi-
tudinally will show the sap wood Of
In the last stages of black. Micro
scopical examination OF a cross-sec-
ton of the stem will show the fungus
growing in the cells and across the
sap tubes of the stem The injury,
to a large extent. at least. comes from
the clogging Of the sap circulation by
the hypha of this fungus.
This plant, or fungus. that causes
the disease. Is one OF the species OF
Fusarium. the same or similar to the
one that causes the blight or So
called sleeping disease" Of the toma-
to. No direct remedy is known for 1t.
One fact that is of some assistance
In combating 1t is that the disease is
much more prevalent on land pre-
vfously planted to potatoes than on
alfalfa or clover land. Another thing
that is quite noticeable in studying
the nature OF the disease, is that po-
tatoes planted whole are not attacked
to such an extent as the cut ones, be-
cause of the inability OF the fungus
to get into the stem.
Treatment OF the seed with forma-
lin. corrosive sublimate, sulphur, lime.
etc, have not given any perceptible
relief from Il.
1t is probable that in many cases at
least much Of the disease IL carried
to the field in the seed potatoes. The
same fungus causes the dry rot" Of
potatoes in the storage cellars. 1t
has been very noticeable during the
past winter that cellars with poor

dry they were. had high percent OF
Of potatoes affected with this dry rot.

There never has been a period in
American history when the public
was more eager to learn the attitude
of its leaders than la the present elec-
ton year. In the July Everybody's,
Lincoln Steffens holds up for the in

most prominent of the Democratic
leaders. To Mr.. Steffen's searching
questions have come definite. clear
cut answers-there could be no eva

is strong-as strong as was its pre-
decessor In the June number, where
the Republican leaders gave their
views upon ''What the Matter 10 In
America and What to Do About It"

in "The Tenements OF Trinity Church"
a powerful arraignment OF the meth

CANON CITY FDOHLR BHG
PATRONS OF POST OFFICE

For the purpose OF obtaining some
definite idea Of the amount OF mail re-
ceived by the people OF Canon City all
of the letters. newspapers and other
postal matter handled by the city car
riers was carefully weighed at the
local postoflce during the last week in
June. The result was astonishing and
showed that during the six days begin
ming on the 22nd and ending on the
9th ult., the amount OF mail matter
delivered was 20s5 pounds; something
over ton. Many thousand pieces were
represented in the total, but the ex-
act number can not be ascertained.
On Sunday there Is, OF course, no de-
livery of mail by the city carriers
and that day was not considered in
tie computation given above.
The mail on Sunday is usually an
exceptionally heavy one, and, had the
postal receipts for that day been add
ed to the six days during which an ac-
count was kept. the aggregate weight
OF the mail addressed to local people
would have been materially increased.
Not only was the business at the Can
on City postofice for June 1905 in ex-
cess of that OF any corresponding
month in the history of the commun-
ity, but the receipts for the quarter
ending June 80 were greater than for
the same period last year. The volume
OF business done at the post Office
speaks well for the general prosperity
OF the community. ..

lion dollars he set aside for her out
of his estate
Tillotson after his departure from the
AntIers hotel and was unaware of his
death until informed of it by his at
torney one day last week. On the
18th inst, a gentleman registered at
the Antlers hotel from Chicago and
inquired for Miss Thrasher. On being
introduced he informed her that he
was the attorney for Mr.. Tillotson's
estate and that he had come to see
her in relation to the $250,OO0 that had
been bequeathed to her under the
terms of Mr.. Tillotsons will, which
was executed by him about two years
ago.
Miss Thrasher was, of course, great
her good fortune, and, naturally, elat-
ed at thus having riches thrust upon
her.
! In writing to her sister here about
the matter day or two ago she said
that she had no expectation of finan-
cial reward for what she did for Mr..
| Tillotson. Whatever kindness may
have shown him." she stated, was
prompted solely by pity for his un-
fortunate condition. 1 did nothing for
him that 1 would not gladly do for
anybody else that might need my SYM

Mr.. Tillotson was 73 years of age
and accumulated a vast fortune in tho
manufacturing business in Pittsf1eld.

He left no immediate family, but left
the bulk of his property to distant rel
atives in New England.

Gus acquaintances here. She will re-
ceive the money as soon as the estate

THE POLAND CHINA
HOG FOR COLORADO

The Poland China hog is an almost
perfect meat making machine. 1t il
not excelled by any breed of any kind
of live stock for converting feed into
flesh
1t has a voracious appetite, good
digestion and is lazy-not using much
of its energy in useless travel or ex-
element 1t does well under any con-
dition where food is abundant. 1t viii
stand heavy feeding and considerable
neglect
The Poland China is an easy feeder
and is quick maturing. When prop
erly handled it is ready for the mar
ket at any time after six months OF
age. whenever the price is right
1t is typical lard hog. with thick.
short. massive body. fine quality OF
bone. hair and skin. small. hne head.
and short legs. 1t is thick feshed
with heavy shoulders and hams and
broad, thick loins. srz-
too large a proportion Of fat on the
matured animal. The Colorado pack
ers find that when the Poland China
is marketed fat at 100 to 220 pounds
live weight, the meat is fully up to the
requirements of the best markets-
Above these weights there is too much
fat
The chief fault of the Poland China
is that many strains. through over
feeding of corn, are poor breeders,
having only one to four pigs in lit
ter. Such pigs are usually choice
feeders but the number Is too small
to make 1t profitable to keep the SOW.
Where the sows are selected from
prolific strains and fed muscle and
bone making feeds, they are ~ pro-
lific as those of any breed. Three Po-
land China sows on the Colorado Az
ricultural college farm, had last
spring, 81 live pigs.
In selecting Poland Chinas for
breeders choose hogs that are fro1
proliflc strains ON both the sire and
dams sides. They should have the
typical qualities NJ above descrihoa.
