Surprise Party SurpriseA.

What proved to be jolly good time
for the members OF the Booster club Of
the B. A. r., No. 1856, as we'll - .
mighty good joke on every one OF them
was the hay ride down to Florence
last night.
The members had planned 70 visit
the Yeoman lodge OF Florence and
boost for "Fraternal day" at the COM
ing state fair. About IS went down
on hay rack and other vehicles. OF
course they had nne time on the
way down but after arriving they
felt no little chagrin to hnd that that
organization had changed Its place
and time of meeting. They were not
at a loss as to what to do to enjoy
themselves They visited the picture
show. had fine supper and q jolly
time on the way back home. arriving
at rather a late hour but resolved
to be a little more certain OF few
things nsxt tims.

THINK OWNERSHIP OF
HORSES HAS BEEN FOUND

The officials of the sheriff's office
have reason to believe that the four
head of horses captured in Copper
gulch a month ago belong in this
county instead OF in the eastern part
of the state as originally supposed
From Information placed in the hands
of the officers on Monday it seems al
most certain that one Of them was sto-
len from 8. P. Jones of Florence and
the other three from the ranch OF
Jesse Kelly Of Beaver creek.
1t will be recalled by readers OF
the daily Record that late In the
evening OF July 18th an unknown man
arrived here having four head Of
horses in his possession and went
into camp half a mile or SO beyond
Soda Point
The popularity OF his actions and
the fact that he left before daylight
the following morning led to the sus-
picion that the horses were stolen
and he was pursued by Sheriff Esser
and deputy from Parkdale who To-
Gated the horses at the head Of Cop
per gulch, where the thief had aban-
doned them to prevent arrest.
The horses were brought to Canon
City and impounded pending the ef-
forts OF the officers to find their own
ers.
That they belong to the parties
mentioned appears to admit Of NO rea-
sonable doubt and will be definitely
settled today. While It is not POSI-
lively known who stole the horses
there 10 excellent reason for believing
that It was done by J. NJ. Copeland.
No 5S81, alias Jackson Solomon, q pa
rolled convict who Ii now under ar
rest at Lamar. charged with burglary
and half . score Of other crimes.
Copeland is an all around crook
and bad man and a few weeks ago
kidnapped the city marshal at Lamar.
He was sent to the penitentiary from
Otero county for q period from six to
ten years for horse stealing and Is
regarded as an old offender in that
line of crime.

GERMANS HAVE METHOD FOR
KILLING MOTH PEST

An Associated Press dispatch from
Zittau, Germany, under date Of the
10th, inst, says:
"The Saxon authorities have discov-
cred what seemed to be an excellent
way to put an end to the caterpillar
plague. They make use of what they
call the electric light trap. This con-
sists of two large refectors placed
over a deep receptacle and powerful
exhaust fans. The contrivance has
been erected. on top of the municipal
light plant. At night two great
streams of light are thrown from the
reflectors on the wooded mountain
side half mile away.
"The results have been astonishing.
The moths, drawn by the brilliancy,
come fluttering in thousands along the
broad rays of light. When they get
within a certain distance Of the re-
dectors the exhaust fans take up the
work and with powerful currents Of
air swirl them down into the recep-
tacle. On the first night three tons
of months were caught"
1t is reported that a similar moth
to the one alluded to Is working con-
siderable injury to the shade trees in
some parts of Canon City and 1t has
been suggested that their ravages
might be stopped by adopting the
German plan of getting rid Of them.

PRIZES FROM JAPAN

IIHUE, January 1.-THE ladies from
Kauai who lately made the tour OF
the Mikado's domain took occasion
while in Yokohama to visit the most
famous store of the place, the Samu-
raj Shokai, and invested some of
their pin money in trinkets suitable
for Christmas presents, the Garden Is
land says. They all seem to have
dropped So apiece in the place, as that
was the condition for receiving a
ticket for the grand Christmas rattle.
The ladies put the tickets in their
shopping bags and promptly forgot all
about them. But Samurai Shokai
didn't forget them. By this week
mail they received a list, giving the
result of the drawing, and all three
of them found their names among
the lucky ones. Miss Mabel Wilcox
heads the list, having drawn the first
prize, a gold lacquer chest, with draw
ers, valued at 800 yen. Mrs. ]. r.
Myer takes one of the eighth prizes, a
pair of Damascene cuff links, While
Miss Elsie Wilcox comes in the ninth
place with set of six Satsuma but
tons.

BICYCLE RIDERS MADE
4 FINE SHOWING

The Eldids with their wonderful BIZ
cycle act made an immense hit last
night at the Orpheum Theater. They
appeared after the performance Of
Lend Me Your Wife," and their act
proved all that had been said of it in
every respect. No bicycle riding 70
equal it has ever been seen in this
city. From their first appearance,
when Mr.. Eldid rode a bicycle down
a flight of steps with his wife on his
shoulders, till the final act, when he
did the same feat on a unicycle, the
audience hung breathless on their mar
velous, daring tricks. While the FL
dds do many tricks in which they
actually risk. if not their lives at least
serious injury, so slzilfully and grace
fully do they perform that the danger
is not at all apparent. As a matter
of fact twice last night the riders
had narrow escapes from q bad fall,
once when the chain of one of the
wheels caught in the sprocket Just as
they were dismounting. and again at
the close of the act, when the bolts
holding the stairway together came
loose. the structure threatening to col
lapse.
The farce, LEND Me Your Wife"
nroyed in itself an entertaining bill. 1t
hinges about the necessity which i'm
pels a young fellow to pass off his
friends wife as his own. The compl1-
cations ensuing are very funny, and
the company succeeded in getting
great deal of laughtr out of the piece
last night. Mr.. Cooley and Miss
Kingsbury, as usual, had important
roles which they filed to the satisfac-
ton of everybody.
In the final act Mr. Cooley was forced
to stop the play a moment while ne
administered well-deserved repr1-
mand to a party of young men who
were disturbing the show and annoy
ing the performers.
Between the play and the appear
ance of the Eldids, Miss Martel sang
and danced, being heartily applauded.
The evening as a whole constituted
one of the most enjoyable offered at
the Orpheum this season.

It isn't so difficult to strengthen a

to the weak or ailing nerves of these or
gans,' said he. Each inside organ has
its controlling or ''inside nerve"
When these nerves fail then those OF
