SANTA FE ROAD CAME INTO
CANON CITY q YEARS AGO

The Rocky Mountain News in its
issue of March 31st, 1890, twenty-one
years ago on Friday, contained the
following account of the running of
the first passenger train into this city
over the Santa Fe road. 1t said:
The fast daily train service be-
tween Denver and Canon City on the
Santa Fe was inaugurated The ney
trains to be used continually in this
service are just from the shops. The
growing demand for daily service of
this kind between the points named
was granted through the efforts OF
Superintendent w. A Drake and j. p.
Hall, Coloraod passenger agent of the
company at Denver. These officials
have labored with commendable zeal
to crafty the wants of their patrons.
and they impressed upon the minds
of the higher authorities the advan-
tage of the new equipment for the
run.
The officials have numbered the
trains 357 and 35S on the time card,
but have indorsed The News christen-
ing of the Cannon Ball to apply to
the trains as the popular sobriquet.
The train pulled out of Denver prompt
ly at l O'Clock. the same time of the
departure that characterized the
northbound train when it pulled out
of Canon City. Cheering crowds greet
ed the departure of the trains.
Just before the train pulled out OF
Denver General Agent Zimmerman ac-
corded the honor of dedicatlng the
train to The News representative
Mounting the pilot of the new engine,
The News Man took bottle of chan-
paigne from Zimmerman and broke 1t
over the headlight, christening it Can
non Ball"

remedy. Years ago people right in
this locality testified to the relief
they had derived from the use of
Doan's Kidney Pills. They now con-
firm their testimonials. They say

OF my experience and now I take
pleasure in confirming all have pre-
vigorously said about this remedy.
