NIGHT BE A GOOD PLAN

movement has been inaugurated
In Greeley to induce people to render
the town attractive at night by the in
stallation OF electric lights on their

reasons for such course and 1t might
be tried in Canon City to advantage.
1t would help to illuminate the streets
and would render the community an
interesting one to visitors and tourists.

has granted a fiat rate of 80 cent? q

that a special concession could be OBJ
tanned from the electric light people
here for the same purpose. It might
be tried at any rate.

THE DUNBAR COMPANY
EXCELLENT ENTERTAINERS

The Dunbars, consisting Of a male
quartette and bell ringers, gave the
sixth Of the Star course series OF en-
tertainments at the First Methodist
church last night in the presence Of a
gathering that filled every bit OF the
spacious auditorium. Much had been
expected from the Dunbars, but they
more than redeemed the anticipations
of their patrons, than which no high
or praise could have been received.
A great many entertainment COM
panies have visited Canon City dur
ing tic last few years, but none Of
them have taken a higher place in the
public estimation than the Dunbars
and they may be assured generous
patronage at any time they may re-
tarn here.
The regular tenor soloist OF the
company was unable to sing Monday
owing to a bad cold and Matt Ault Of
Fort Collins took his place upon the
program. Mr.. Ault sang several
numbers in a very acceptable manner
and received a deserved applause for
the excellence of his work.

Ethel Roosevelt Mourns Loss of Lemon

general lookout order was sent to
every district in the precinct, and by
nightfall there was not a dog on the
streets of Washington. In the collec-
ton held for identification was every
species of canine from a NANCY mastiff
to a f1ea-bitten flee, but none answered
to the name of Lemon.
Various motives, if a dog may have
a motive, may be assigned to Lemons
abrupt departure from the Roosevelt
household. He might have had a
vision of a small bull pup swinging to
the port side of a lion in the wilds Of
Africa, and his masters voice shout
ing sic 'em Lemon"
Again, he might have dreaded the
time when he would reach the proper
age to be harnessed to one Of Master
Arches carts, or be matched in a
main with the household cat, or wear
an empty can attached to his tail.
However, Lemons motive for running
away is purely speculative, for it 10
not given in the police report, and his
mistress "can attribute no cause FIR
the rash act"

w HEN it comes to diplomatic
w maneuvering to accomplish their
designs the officers of the navy can
give pointers to the Russians and the
Japanese. AS an instance the case of
the hospital ship Relief may be cited.
1t will be remembered that last win
ter President Roosevelt made an or
der that the Relief should be COM
manded by a medical officer. The men
at the navy department were amazed
that a doctor should be given COM
mand of a vessel, but there was no
appeal from Mr.. Roosevelt's order.
The Relief was detailed to accompany
the fleet or it's trip around the world.
Letters from men who are with the
fleet have been received here telling
of the sad experiences of the hospital
ship and her commander. In describ-
ing these experiences n writer pref
aced his letter as follows: "The Re-
lief is the most unpopular institution
in the navy. There is no exception.
The Relief has everything else beaten"

A interesting experiment is about

it meets with success it will be ex-

of a few days there will be opened at

vania avenue 4 weather kiosk similar

Naval Officers Experts in Diplomacy

The story is that the Relief has been
burdened with woe ever since the
cruise began, and that every officer Of
the navy, except the doctors, ID
tickled to death that this is so. The
line officers who didn't approve having
a doctor as their commander have
found many ways, the story goes, of
making life miserable to the men in
charge of the hospital ship. Of course
the suggestion of a service conspiracy
to this end would be resented and
could not be proven, but there is a
sub rosa intimation that something
very like a cabal has been formed
with the purpose of proving how much
a doctor doesn't know about running
a ship.
Wherever the fleet has been the Re-
lief has usually limped along behind
the procession. She has had trouble
getting supplies, getting coal, getting
consideration of all kinds. 1t always
just happened this way and nobody
in particular a to blame. 1t is
limited that when the fleet returns sug-
gestions will be made in many quar-
tiers that the cruise has demonstrated
that nobody is competent to manag
a war vessel who is not an accredited
officer of the navy. In other words,
that the experience of the Relief, with
a medical officer in command, has
been a hopeless failure.
