The Seventh Annual Conference of
the Colorado Chapters, National So
eiety, Daughters of the American Rev
olution, closed last night after one OF
the most interesting conventions in It's
history and most of the delegates and
visitors left for home this morning,
carrying with them pleasant recol-
lection of their stay in this city. On
the recommendation of the legisla-
tive committee some changes were
made in the bylaws of the state or
ganization, but they were of an un-
important character so far as the gov
ernment of the society is concerned.
II was unanimously voted to accept
the invitation from the two Pueblo
chapters to hold the next annual con-
ference in that city; the exact date TO
be determined by the executive COM
mittee. Features of yesterday after
Moons session were the election OF Of
ficers, unfinished business. the report
nj the committees on THE Santa Fe
Trail" year book and magazine and
the reading of the fine paper by Mrs.
Arthur II. Carpenter. of Denver, on a

pendence Day The report of The

among other things. that one monu-

er. REQ touring car of the model of
1910. was brought down from Denver
by Frank Thomas and Dick Knight on
Thursday and is now on exhibition
at the garage on South Fourth street.
II was purchased for demonstration
purposes and may be seen by those
interested in such machines by calling
at the garage. II is a fourteen hun
dred and fifty dollar car and possess
cs all of the advantages and charac-
teristics of the higher priced ma
chimes. having thirty-four inch wheels,
the multiple disc clutch and other ap-
pliances previously found only on the
most expensive make of machines.
There is great demand for the 1910
model of the REQ in Denver and they
are being sold there at the rate OF
car load every alternate day. Recent
ly in an endurance race from New
York City to Atlanta, Georgia, one OF
these machines was ono Of the win
ners and its owner. on arrival at
destination. Immediately challenged
The manufacturers of other makes Of
cars to compete with him for speed
honors. but none accepted his propo-
sition The fact that he had sufi-
cient confidence in the Roe to be will
ling to enter II for another contest
after it's thousand mile run from New
York without first having is overhaul
ed by some competent machinist was
splendid tribute TO its power and
durability. The 1910 model of the REQ
is a machine that withstands the most
exactlng tests and is handsome
enough to please the most fastldious.

That the convict camp In Dead
Mans canon, where 20 men are en-
ployed on the state road between
success both from a humanitarian
and financial standpoint. is the opin-
ion of prominent Ell Paso and Fre-
mont county people who visited the
camp on an inspection trip last Thurs
day. Instead of the cheerlessness
which characterizes prison life and
makes a hardened criminal even more
hardened. there is nothing but cheer
fulness in this convict camp.
Glad to have a chance of living in
the open air, and becoming stronger
both mentally and physically. not one
of the entire 20 convicts but is glad
that he is working on the road instead
of dragging out discouraging exist
ence behind steel bars.
Warden lyman estimates that the
force of 10 men and "a horses and
mules cost the state $1,000 a month.
and that the men cost &c cents a day.
He also says that they do rs per cent
more work than a similar outfit under
contract labor. that would cost $4,000
a month. The convicts work eight
hours day and six days a week. Sun
day being set apart for recreation and
rest.
BY maintaining the convict camp on
the state road. the state not only is
treating those who have transgressed
its laws as human beings. but is de-
riving some benefit from their work
for the residents of the state. An auto
mobile road. one OF the finest in the
west. that will accommodate the
numerous ranchmen as well as pleas
ure-seeking automobilists. is being
pushed TO completion Instead Of hav-
ing a succession of steep hills. dan
gerous culverts and mudholes. as has
been the case. the traveller will find a
stretch OF IS miles of perfect highway
between this city and Canon City.

REMAINS OF MISS VERA STOLZ
TAKEN TO GRAND JUNCTION
YESTERDAY FOR BURIAL

From Tuesdays Daily.
The remains of Miss Vera Stolz,
who died at Mt. st. Scholaotica's
Academy last Saturday night from
peritonitis, we're taken to Grand
Junction yesterday afternoon for bur-
ial. Deceased was aged sixteen years
and eleven months and had been a
student at Mt St. Scholastica's Acad-
emy for nearly two years when
stricken down with the fatal illness.
Miss Stolz was handsome. attrac-
tive girl and had many friends among
those with whom she was brought
in contact in the class room and on
the play ground. She was a strong.
healthy young woman until the hand
of disease fastened itself upon her
and her death aroused the deepest
grief among all with whom she was
associated in her school work. She
was sick only a short time. but the
malady was such as to baffle all ef-
forts of the physicians to stay its pro-
gress. Everything that professional
skill, or careful nursing. could sug-
gest, was done for the relief of the
unfortunate girl. but all to no pur-
pose. Her father was killed in an ac-
cident on the Denver, & Rio Grande
railroad about year ago while in the
discharge Of his duties as a railway
conductor.
