INTERESTING ARTICLE
ABOUT CANON CITY

p In a recent issue of the Kansas
Farmer. published at Topeka, appears
an unusually interesting descriptive
article in relation to Canon City and
its surroundings from the pen of Mrs.
Clara Gebhardt, of Lincoln Park. 1t
is entitled, "The Nations Play
ground" and recounts in most COM
prehensive and readable way the at
fractions and mountain resorts of this
portion of the Arkansas valley. 1t
is a splendid advertisement for this
city and its environs, and, printed as
it was, in one of the most widely cir
culated journals of the Sunflower
state, will attract attention of thous-
ands of people, many of whom are
likely to visit Colorado during the
next twelve months. If Canon City
people generally would write to their
home newspapers in the east and tell
them of the attractions of this sec
tion we would soon have such an
influx of tourists and home-seekers
as would tax our capacity to enter
tain them. Mrs. Gebhardt is the Rec
ord's correspondent on Lincoln park
and her weekly contribution of news
items to its columns are widely read
and appreciated.

is HURLED
over A
CLIFF
T elluride Woman Is
Slain by High
waYman.

Telluride, Aug. 25.-Telluride and
vicinity was stirred as never before
late last evening when the body of
Mrs Lee Borg, who disappeared last
Thursday was found by a party of
searchers at the foot OF a 7OO-loot
cliff just below Pandora. The woman
had been robbed of $3.50 and her
watch, assaulted and thrown over the
cliff. Whether she was alive when
thrown over is not known. The body
was horribly mangled.
Last Thursday Mrs. Borg left the
Tomboy mine to walk to Telluride,
distance of six miles. for the purpose
OF depositing her husbands wages,
$3.50. She had made this trip every
month for two years. This was the
last seen of her and on Saturday
searching parties were organized and
today the body was found The cliff
is $50 yards from the main road. The
theory is that some person or per-
sons hid along the road and when she
came up captured her and after finish
ing their work of robbing her of the
money and watch, either killed her
beforehand or carried her to the cliff
and threw her over. There is no in
dication of a struggle having ensued,
neither are there any marks of blood
at the top of the cliff which would
indicate that she was killed before
hand. The indications point to her hav-
ing been robbed, and thrown over the
cliff alive.
The road along which she travelled
is not a lonely road. Three six-horse
teams and two strings of mules pass
along it every day. In addition, over
200 miners walk back and forth on it
daily to work. Whoever committed
the crime had to do so in a hurry as
there is scarcely a fifteen minutes
space of time during which someone
does not pass along the road
Mr.. and Mrs. Borg were married
two and one-half years ago. He is a
machine man in the Tomboy mine
The woman was % years Of age. They
have no children. The husband is
almost prostrated and every effort
possible is being made to locate the
guilty parties.

The storm originated on the south

down Four Mile creek with unusual
force. The hail was accompanied by
a heavy rainfall. which converted all

was comparatively small one. other

THE PROFITS FROM A SYS-
TEMlOF GOOD PUBLIC ROA6S

one o. the strongest arguments yet
presented for good roads is found in
a report by Logan Waller Page, di-
rector of the United States Office of
public roads, showing the enormous
financial returns from well-construct-
ed highways. 1t is shown that the :
improvement of 20 per cent of the
$50 900 miles of roads in this coun-
try, or 250,00O miles, would result ic
yearly saving of from one-half "
one billion dollars year, and that
this sum could be saved by an aver
age expenditure of $1,000 per mile.
A fairly complete system of highways,
it is estimated, could be secured If
each OF the states would spend $4.-
OOO,O 900 on its public roads.
Director Page considers good roads
an economic necessity" His con-
clusions may be stated in his own
words:
There are" he says. nearly 5oo.-
600 automobiles in the United States
at the present time; their yaluSSl
roughly estimated. IS close to $780,
100000. There are in addition. a.
100000 horses and 4.123,OOO mules.
the number growing steadily dssipte
the advent OF motor vsScles. The
value OF the horses Is about s2,27G.-
363,OOO; the value Of the mules
amounting to $500. 900 =
Then take the pleasure vehicles.
They number 100000. with value of
s5i 100000. Then take the wagons us
ed for commercial purposes They
number $4,000. the total value being
31.isO.oOo The wear and tear on
these vehicles as result OF bad roads
is nearly 25 per cent 4 complete sys-
TEN Of improved highways would cut
this loss in hnii

no less than s7.2oo.OOO would be saw
ed in transportation despite the fact
that most Of the corn thN is for

The success Of such project de-
pends on systematic effort on the
part of all the states The highways
should be planned as part OF one
