TO C. A. R. COMRADES.

Denver, Colo, June Z.
To the Comrades of the Grand Army
of the Republic, Department of
Colorado and Wyoming:
Dear Sirs and Comrades.-Your
committee on transportation. APP
pointed by Department Commander
General j. w. Wingate, after care
fully looking into the matter, has Sc
lected the Denver G. Rio Grande rail-
road as the official route to the ma
tional encampment in Salt Lake City
August next.
In making the selection your com
mittee was not Influenced through
favoritism to any particular railroad:
but, after giving the matter most
| careful consideration. decided that
this route would afford the best ac-
commodation to the greatest number
of comrades and insure the largest
possible attendance at the national
encampment (this being the most inn
/ portant consideration), because of
the fact that our special train en-
route could pick up comrades at their
home stations or nearest junction
points and save the unnecessary ex-
I pense Of assembling at some given
place.
/ For the return trip no official
route was named. as the primary idea
was to have all comrades attending
the encampment arrive at Salt Lake
City in a representative body that
would reflect credit upon our state.
leaving it open to return by any
route that might best suit their con-
Venience or preference.
Our comrades of Utah have already
expressed their expectation of rous-
ing attendance from our department; /;
hence, your committee would urge ev-
eryone who can possibly make this
1 trip TO join our special train and thus
insure representation from Colora-
do that will meet the most sanguine
anticipations of our sister state.
As matter of loyalty and for the
honor of our department, let us work
together to make this the largest at
4 tendance that ever went from the de-
partment of Colorado to national
I encampment
Yours respectfully in f. c. G L..

WAS BROTHER OF MISSING MAN

A telephone message was received
at the Daily Record office this after
noon stating that r. p. Benell, for
merly of this city, was drowned at
the headgate of the ditch of the Pali-
sade Irrigation company last night.
How ii happened is not known. but
ii is believed that Benell accidentally
fell into the water and was unable
to get out. Benell boarded at the
Central hotel for a considerable time
before his departure from here, and
was well known about town. He was
injured in a premature explosion of
powder while eXcayating for the
waterworks pipe line in the Royal
Gorge two or three months ago. Be
nell has recently arrived in Palisade
from Pocatello, Idaho, and started to
work for the irrigation company
Monday. From letters found on his
person il was ascertained that Benell
had recently been in Canon City. He
was a brother of Chauncey Benell
who disappeared so mysteriously a
flew weeks ago. leaving his wife and
kfamily residents of this city. In Be
rnell's pockets when he was taken
from the water this morning were
several letters from Miss Eta Mullin
of this city, and. more than anything
else. were the means of identifying
him. Tuesdays Canon City Record.

Why We Are Stronger.

The old Greeks and Romans were great admirers of health and strength: their pictures and statuary made the muscles of the men stand out like cords.
 As a matter of fact we have ath- letes and strong men-men fed on fine strength making food such as Quaker Scotch Oats-that would win in any contest with the old Roman or Greek champions
 It's matter of food. The finest foot for making strength of bone, muscle and nerve is fine oatmeal Quaker Scotch Oats is the best because it is pure. no husks or stems or black specks. Farmers wives are finding that by feeding the farm hands plenti- fully on Quaker Scotch Oats they get the best results in work and economy If you live in hot climate buy Quaker Scotch Oats in dramatically sealed tins.
