KILL RATTLESkAKE
At TOP OF GORGE

On Sunday Miss B. NJ. Steret and
Miss Helen Hutchinson, teachers in
the Pueblo schools, but who live in
West Virginia, came up to Canon City
to go over the new Royal Gorge road
and also over tn g Sky Line drive.
They were accompanied from the
Strathmore hotel to the top of the
Gorge by Mr.. E. K. Craver, who was
a guest of the hotel and desired to
see the sights that Canon City affords.
The party went to the top in an QUITO
and enjoyed splendid hour and a
half on the brink of the precipice. AS
they were returning to the auto one
of the young ladies heard the wh-r-r-
of the rattler and almost Immediately
spied him. The girls were reared in
the mountains of their native state
and hence were but momentarily
frightened by the rattle of the snake.
They Immediately commenced to bonn
bard it with stones and it was not
long until the reptile was in snake
heaven for he put up violent fight for
his life His rattles were brought back
to the city as evidence of the killing
and also as mementos of the trip to
the top of the Gorge.
In commenting about the killing,
Miss Hutchinson said: After we had
pounded it with stones for awhile I
stepped upon it and bruised the SCRIP
ent's head This is a very modest
and elegent way of saying that the
young laly did a very brave act.

HORSE Thief CAUGHT
HERE THIS MuRNIhG

A horse thief. who gave his name rs
J. Elliott and his home as Oklahoma.
was taken into custody here this
morning by Under Sherih Henry l..
White and locked up in the county
Jail pending preliminary hearing in
the justice court. Last Sunday night
large and valuable bay horse was
stolen from the barn OF ]. L. Pennis-
ton at Wellsville and the authorities
here were furnished with a descrip-
ton and requested to be on the look
out for the missing animal. It was be-
lieved that the thief was making his
way toward Pueblo and the arrest
here today was not surprising to those
in possession OF the information Civ
en- out at the sheriff's Office on Monday
in relation to the matter.
Shortly after IL o'clock this morn
ing an unknown man about twenty
five years OF age rode into the Palace
livery stable at the corner of Sixth and
Main streets and offered to trade or
sell his mount. provided he could get
as much as one hundred dollars for
him.
The livery stable people had been
apprised of the theft at wellsville and
suspected that something was wrong
when the man wanted to dispose Of
so fine horse. They detained him
Cañon City record., 1911-06-15

while telephone message was sent
to the sheriff's office and an officer
sent to Investigate the matter. Mr..
White recognized the animal at once
from the description given by Mr.. Pen
nington and arrested the stranger as
thief Mr.. Pennington. who is the
proprietor of the hot springs resort
at wellsville. is in town this after
noon and has identified the horse rid
den here by Elliott as the one stolen
from his barn. Elliott has got to put
up a pretty good story to save himself
from a term in the penitentiary.

In the last hours of the late session
an amendment to one of the bills was
gotten through providing that all
money in the internal Improvement
fund that was left over after the ap-
propriations were paid should go to
the Highway Commission.
And there is the secret of the veto.
Just as soon as it became evident
that, if the bills were vetoed all the
money would go to the Highway Com
mission, every influence in Denver
was used to induce the governor to
veto the bills And, being Denver's
governor, Mr.. Shafroth obeyed.
Mr.. Shafroth has done everything
for Denver and nothing for the state.
He vetoed all the bills for state roads
which were desired by the people of
the state. but he signed the bills 70
spend $4,000 of the states money TO
build viaducts in the rich city of Den
yer.
He thwarts the will of the people
as expressed by the legislature in
order to favor the Highway Commis-
sion which is run by Denver interests
in the interest OF Denver.
In matters OF road legislation this
section of the state recognizes now
that is has been stung.

When the Legislature adjourned this
section of the state felt mighty good
over the appropriation bills that
went through for roads leading in this
direction. Several road bills passed.
after long and careful consideration
by the legislature. Practically the
whole 100 members voted for the bills.
The bills included appropriations
for roads between Pueblo and Fre-
mont counties and Teller and FREE
mont counties, but the measures o.
greatest interest to the greatest num-
ber of people were the appropriations
for the roads between Colorado
Springs and Canon City, and between
Canon City and Salida, as this would
open up a much needed highway be-
tween Colorado Springs and the West.
But midst our rejoicing comes the
news that Governor Shafroth has We
toed all the bills
By stroke of the pen he has dash
ed our hopes to the ground and has
undone all the results of untold labors
on the part of many of our leading
citizens.
