During the past week there was

Wealthy men from all parts OF the

the result that hundreds OF thousands
Of dollars worth OF land has become

What Is the reason OF all thisr The
explanation is simple. II has become

any ever dreamed of under other me-

AM :RICAN-SIENNA QUARRIES
NEAR CANON To Be OPENED
From Mondays Daily.

From Mondays Daily.
o. A. Trumbull arrived here from
Boston. Mass. last Friday and has
taken charge of the American-Sienna
Marble Company's plant at the foot
OF the Twin mountains. six miles
northwest of town. and Is getting
ready to reopen Its quarries after q
shutdown OF six years.
Mr.. Trumbull, who has had much
practical experience In the marble
auarries OF New England. came here
at the instance of the company and is
at present engaged In repairing build
ings. overhauling machinery and ar
ranging other details incidental to the
resumption of work at the plant after
an idleness of more than a decade.
The Quarries are located within less
than half mile OF the Canon City and
Fairplay road and to bring their pro-
duct here for shipment would be a
down-hill phil for the entire distance.
According to Mr.. Trumbuil. the
company has had thorough invesi-
CATION made by geologists and experts
of its property here. as well as of the
durability OF Its product. and is con-
vinced that both In the extent OF the
deposit and in the quality OF the mar

AS illustrative of the fact that land

Water company. better known as the
great De Weese project, closed op-
tions during the first four days Of
the week for 1892 acres OF land to
be watered from their source o, sup
ply.
This record has been consistent,
maintained for some time. with the
result that the water supply available
for irrigation from this project is be-
ing lessened every day. This company
alone will afford water for 800 900
acres OF land. but, between Canon
City on the west and Pueblo on the
east. there are about 100000 acres
that are available for irrigation.
