FREMONT COUNTY AT THE
DENVER AND PUEBLO FAIRS

Francis Bachelor, county fruit in
spector, is in Denver this week in
charge of the Fremont county horti-
cultural display at the Interstate fair
and exposition. While the exhibit IL
not as large as has been made by the
growers of this district on some other
occasions 1t is very creditable and Mr..
Bachelor confidently expects to land
a portion of the prizes, and will, at
least, let the people of the state know
that Fremont county is still In the
fruit business. The display at Denver,
with some additions, will be transfer
red to the state fair at Pueblo next
week. 1t is urged that all who can do
so should help little in augmenting
the exhibit for the Pueblo fair.
Frank z. Gleason OF Lincoln Park
will make quite display OF grapes at
Denver, and, probably, also at Pueblo.
His collection embraces II varieties
and looks like winner.

Queen Of Sheba that '.the half has not

on the ten acres that was left without

the value Of orchard heating as q
means Of protecting the fruit from the
frost
IN May 1907 Mr.. Hamilton pur-
chased the twenty acres Of orchard he
owns at Grand Junction for 1900.
He was q few weeks ago offered the
sum OF $25. 900 for it without the fruit
crop now on the trees. which are es-
timated to be worth anywhere from
$4,000 to $4,000. but refused the pro-
position. To save the apple crop on
the ten acres alluded to cost Mr.. Ham
ilton only a few hundred dollars, per-
haps, less than two per cent Of the
value of the product, which is certain
ly a very small premium for the in
surance he receiyed.
The Canon City fruit growing dis
trict Is less exposed to the cold than
the territory around Grand Junction
and the temperature here is less IL
able to change and fluctuation than
on the western slope. The climatic and
typographical conditions are more
favorable for horticulture about Can
on City than they are about Grand
Junction and Mr.. Hamilton's success
in orchard heating last spring might
easily have been duplicated here. To
see Mr.. Hamilton's orchard. accord
ing to Mr.. Rockafellow, is to become
an advocate Of artificial heating as a
protection against frost.

The Leavenworth echo. [volume] (Leavenworth, Wash.) 1904-current, 1908-08-14

San Francisco, Aug. 11.-Briga-
dier-General Frederick Funston yes
terday turned over the command of
the Department of California to Col
onel Marion P. Maus and will leave
for Fort Leavenworth, Kan, to take
charge of the cavalry school there.
General Funston, whose record as
Lieutenant Colonel in the Cuban in
surgent army in 1857 and later as
Colonel of the Twentieth Kansas Vol
unteers in the Philippines is well
known, made many friends in San
Francisco by his prompt action in
turning out his troops on the day of
the earthquake and fire April IS,
1906, practically taking charge of
the situation in the stricken city until
relieved by Major-General Greeley.
Colonel Maus, the new commander
of the Department of California, has
a record as brilliant and diversified
as that OF General Funston. Grad
uating from West Point at the. age of
"a, he took an active part in the
Sioux, Cheyenne, Nez Perces and
Apache Indian campaigns and was
several times commended for gallan-
try in action and recommended for
the medal of honor.

Heroine May Be Queen.

San Francisco, Aug. 11.-Miss
Maybelle Watson, heroine of the Co
lumbia wreck, which occurred near
Eureka more than a year ago, has
been chosen to represent Berkeley in
the contest for queen of the Alameda
county exposition and carnival. Miss
Watson achieved distinction for the
heroic assistance which she rendered
to several passengers who were in
imminent danger of drowning.
Before she left the sinking ship,
the fearless girl devoted her energies
to calming her terrified companions
and aiding them to adjust their life
preseryers and, when forced to leap
into the icy waters, she supported a
girl passenger on the surface for
hours, swimming by her side and
whispering words of encouragement
into her ears.
When the steamer George Elder
reached the scene of the disaster and
the survivors were taken aboard,
Miss Watson was hailed as heroine,
and after the party landed in Port
land handsome gifts were presented
to the brave girl She was also named
for the honor of receiving the Car
negie medal for heroism.

Fortune to Girl Who Tilted Him.

Los Angeles, Aug. 11.-Years ago
Miss Mollie Morrill, and Alfred Kin
ney were betrothed. The ring had
been purchased and the day set. One
rainy night they went to a theater
and Mr.. Kinney thoughtlessly had
his bride-to-be walk through the
sloppy street instead of calling cab.
When he went home he carried his
presents in a bundle and Mollie's
farewell kiss on his lips. Next morn
ing he left for the Nevada mining
camps.
Mollie became the wife of Frank
Wagner, who died soon after. The
widow went TO work as a seamstress
and has struggled with poverty since.
Two years ago Mr.. Kinney, who had
prospered, passed out at Goldfeld.
Recently his sister died at the same
place and the will of Mr.. Kinney was
found among her effects.
In it he bequeathed to Mrs. Wag-
ner all his property, worth $4,000.
The sister had been taking care OF
it and. but for her death Mrs. Wag-
ner, whose name Mr.. Kinney did not
know, might never have received the
estate. The dressmaker's sign has
been taken down.
