MRS. REYNOLDS WAS THE
FRIEND OF THE POOR

In the death of Mrs. J. B. F. Rey-
nolds at her home in Denver last Sat
urday night from valvular disease of
the heart, Colorado lost one of her
most active philanthropists. Needy
and unfortunate people who have been
assisted by Mrs. Reynolds number
hundreds. She was greatly interested
in the work of the juvenile court es-
tablished by Judge Ben B. Lindsey and
herself had adopted fifteen or twenty
waits, caring for them in her own
home until she could find permanent
homes for them.
Her most noted achievement was
the securing of a pardon from the PEN
itentiary for Antoine Woode, who,
when boy, murdered hunter who
had stopped at his fathers cabin and
who in prison developed unusual tai
ent as an artist and musician. Mrs.
Reynolds was we'll known in literary
circles throughout the country and
had made a name for herself as 4
writer of both prose and poetry.

SAYS BUSINESS CONDITIONS
ARE IMPROVING IN EAST

Charles A Shinkie returned home
Wednesday after three weeks visit
to points in Ohio. Indiana, Illinois and
Missouri. Mr.. Shinkle went first to
Cincinnati to attend the annual con-
vention of the National Canning
Mems association, going later to Bel
laire. Ohio, Muncie, Indiana; Spring
field, Missouri, and other places. Ev-
erywhere he found commercial condi-
tions improving and people looking
confidently forward to a restoration
of business to the basis it occupied
before the financial upheaval of last
October. While he was at Bellaire or
ders were received in that city and at
Wheeling, West Virginia, to open the
various glass factories. which gave
employment to 10000 men, many of
whom had been out of work for sew
eral months. He says the canning in
dustry looks very encouraging and
that the leading firms in that line of
business are placing big orders with
the manufacturers of glass cans and
anticipate a prosperous year.
The weather was very disagreeable
most OF the time Mr.. Shinkle was in
the east and he expresses himself a.
glad TO get back to the land Of genial
sunshine.

The report of T. B. Coulter, treas
urer of the company, revealed hand
some cash reserve on hand. It showed
that the cost of maintaining the ditch
was much less than in former years
and that the assessment on every one
OF the $500 shares was paid In full.
Several matters Of importance to the
stockholders we're discussed at We'd
nesday's meeting, among them being
the annual levy for the support of the
ditch, which was fixed at IS cents
share for the calendar year 1908,
which is about 20 cents for each acre
OF land benefited by it. For an un-
limited supply of water for all pur-
poses this is certainly very cheap. The
following board OF directors was re-
elected: j. H. Harrison. B. F. Rock
afellow, T. B. Coulter. J. E. Brown
and N. C. burning The directorate
was organized by the election of ]. ii.

"My husbands experience with Doan's

them. He tried doctors and various
remedies to find relief but met with
very little success He finally learned
OF Doan's Kidney Pills, procured a
box, and upon using them was cured.
At times since, when from over-exer-

VISITED BEAVER PARK
THURSDAY AFTERNOON

The following gentlemen, Judge Co.

Thursday, accompanied by Mr.. Thurs

indeed To the officials of the Beaver
Land d Irrigation company to hear
Judge Coburn, the president of the So
cie,y. express himself very freely re-
garding the proposition in general.
and particularly as to the soil and the
magnificent irrigation system. He
stated most empha,ically that this soil
would raise most anything in the
horticultural line and that there was
absolutely no reason why apple trees
should not be set out the first year and
not walt for one years cultivation In
something else. He stated the soil II
Beaver Park was very similar to the
soil of the San Joaquin valley in CAL
ifornia. He was very much impressed
with the complete system of irriga-
ton that is being inaugurated, 50
much 80 that he wished Col. MacDon-
aid to write him fully regarding the
costs. etc.
Judge Coburn Is probably the best
Informed horticulturist In Colorado.
He has travelled extensively all over
the United States In cleaning knowl-
edge, and now controls the largest
orchard in this state. which is on the
western slope and covers 260 acres Of
bearing trees therefore. his opinion
must carry considerable weight and
will bear out Thurston Whites state
mcnt as to Beaver Parks soil and as
to the planting of trees this year.
