COLORADO FRUIT CROP THIS
YEAR WILL BREAK ALL RECORDS

ries and apricots. these crops will be
much larger thsn for last year and
other crops are practically uninjured.
Smudge pots were used with admir-
able effect almost throughout the val
ley this year, thus saving hundreds Of
thousands OF dollars worth OF fruit
that would otherwise have been ruin
cd.
In the Canon City district the dam
age was also comparatively slight and
the crop this year will be considerable
above the average. The MontssumA
district will also have a heavy Yield
and the Denver and Rio Grande rail-
road will In all probability be taxed
almost to Its full capacity during the
rush season to handle the output.
The fruit acreage has been heavily
increased In practically all fruit dis
tricts OF the state within the past Ave
years and many young orchards will
bear their nrst crop this year. thus
adding greatly to the output. From all
reports received by the State associa-
ton there IL little doubt that the
amount OF fruit to be shipped this year
will be rs per cent greater than ever

OLINGER'S MOVING INTO
THEIR FINE NEW HOME
The Montrose Press.

The Montrose Press.
J. B. Olinger and family are NOV
ing into their fine new home on East
Main street, and when the moving op-
erations are completed they will find
themselves ensconced in one OF the
prettiest and most tastefully arranged
and finished homes in the city. The
exterior is a modification of the Queen
Anne style, with the addition Of many
modern accessories. The interior Is
most beautifully finished in natural
tints of the wood, with a highly pol
ished surface of varnish. The walls
are covered with paper Of strikingly
harmonious designs.
The arrangement of the interior is
very convenient also. Entrance is had
to the stairway from either side, and
without the necessity Of going thru
any of the other rooms. Upstairs the
bath ia convenient OF access from a
hall which connects with all of the
chambers.
The kitchen is finished with a large
cabinet at one side Of which provides
most convenient receptacle for
kitchen needfuls, and makes the
kitchen work a delight. A spacious
vegetable cellar adjoins the heater
basement, and provides convenient
and ample storage facilities for large
quantities of fruits and vegetables.
Mr.. and Mrs. Olinger are proud Of
their new home, and they certainly
have good cause to be for finer one

1T is ASSERTED THAT
KANSAS CAPITALISTS WILL
TAKE OVER THE ROAD

For some reason not very clearly
understood the party q Lawrence.
Kansas, capitalists, which has been
the guest OF A. B. Hulit at Pueblo for
a couple OF days. failed to visit Canon
City last night as had been expected
would be the case. In anticipation Of
their coming a number OF local busi-
ness men called at the Strathmore ho-
tel to pay their respects and were
disappointed that Mr.. Hulit and his
associates OF the Kansas-Colorado
electric road were not there. 1t was
learned this morning that they made
a trip over the grade OF the proposed
line to Turkey creek yesterday and
thence to Florence; going back from
that point to Pueblo. Several men,
bers of the party were anxious to re-
turn to Lawrence with as little delay
n possible, and, on that account, It
was decided to abandon their intend
cd visit to this city. A telephone mes
sage was received here this morning
from Mr.. McCorkle Of Pueblo. general
attorney for the old company. In
which he stated that the members OF
the Lawrence party had agreed to
take over the affairs OF the Kansas
Colorado enterprise and build the
road along the original lines. provid-
ed certain conditions were met by
the men now in charge. The required
conditions will, in all probability be
conceded. and II il very likely that
work will start soon towards the ear,

French by Sister 1melda, In which the
participants are expected to display
creditable histronic ability. The title
of the piece is Little Tiptoe." The
scene of the play is laid In a country
district Of France, in a part where
fairies abound. Tiptoe, who lives with
her Aunt Margaret, Is entreated by
the fairies to participate In their mid
night revels, but is forbidden to do 80
by her aunt. One night she disobeys
this prohibition and accompanies them
to Sylvan Dell, where she Is discov-
cred dancing with them by her aunt,
and threatened with punishment. The
fairies HE themselves away immedf-
ately. but next day when Aunt Mar
garet's linen is spread on the bleach
ing ground in the dell. they return
and proceed to make efngies Of Aunt
Margaret and the servants. out Of the
linen. When the aunt makes this dis
covery she sends for the marshal OF
police to prosecute them. This import
ant official finds himself In a predica-

as he is not used to dealing with en-
chanted beings. When he does go to
demonstrate with the fairies he is de-
luged with a shower OF flowers from
which he attempts an unsuccessful es-
cape. At this juncture Of the trouble
Tiptoe comes forward with a compro-
mise agreeable to all, which is that
during the night the fairies shall rule
in Sylvan Dell and in the daytime it
shall be used as a bleaching ground
for Aunt Margaret's linen. The COM
