WOMANAR-
RESTEDFOR
STEALING;

Mrs. China Hemmingway. who re-
nfteen or twenty miles northeast of
town, was arrested here between five
on the charge of stealing washing
machine, several wash tubs. a broom,
some coal oil. clothing and other ar
ticles from the home of Mr.. and Mrs.
Paul Evans, who live on Franklin
street. East Canon, on Thursday night
previous, and is now in Jail. Mrs.
Hemingway has lived in this county
many years and is one of the best
known characters in this section of
the state. The stuff, which she is ac-
cused of carrying away from the
Evans premises, and appropriating to
her own use was found hidden away at
her place on Vine street, where. 1t is
alleged by the police. she has secreted
a great deal of stolen plunder during
the last few years. 1t was ascertained
by the authorities in the course of
their investigation that the wagon
Mrs. Hemmingway had used in haul
ing away the goods she had acquired
at the Evans place had been stolen
from Frank p. Smith, although he was
unconscious of 1t until after she had
been taken into custody. The priso-

THE MERCHANTS ARE
VERY BUSY THESE DAYS

Christmas shopping has been un-
usually heavy t"is year Dealers in
every line of merchandise in Canon
City report that they are rushed with
an excellent business. Many reports
have gone out that the Canon City
merchants were complaining of very
poor business this time of the year,
but any such rumors are incorrect.
Investigation by Record reporter
showed that nearly every place in
Canon, without exception. was doing
a fine holiday business. Many of the
merchants, and especially those who
have advertised in The Daily Record.
have been almost unable to take care
of the rush of business that has well
nigh "swamped" them. Some dealers
are worried because their stocks are
running low owing to an inability to
replenish them because wholesale
houses cannot take care of their or
ders.
If anyone believes that Canon is
dull this holiday season. they are
mistaken. AS evidence of this fact
just let them drop into any store any,
time during business hours and they
will soon see that theer ideas concern
ing dull trade are emphatically wrong.
Nearly every merchant is seeking
extra help and many ordinarily out
OF work, are pressed into service to
accommodate the holiday shoppers.
About every day for the past week
the reporter. while making the round
of the business section, has been ask
ed. Say do you know of l orr peo--
pie that we can get to help us out for
a few days?" Such a condition GER
tainly indicates that business is on
the 60" ,,s,, ,.,.fi-...y

ready TO take exception to this state

past quarter of century has been
remarkable. His rule has been firm

but in the main they have all been
highly beneficial. When Diaz took
hold, commerce and trade were in a
stagnant condition, there were prac-

advantages were merely nominal.
Summing up the changes that have
taken place. the Mexican Herald says
that Mexico has been made one Of the
