BEAUTIFUL LUNAR RAINBOW
SEEN TUESDAY NIGHT

One of the most beautiful lunar
rainbows seen in Canon City in many
years was visible in the western heav-
ems about O'Clock Tuesday night
and attracted much attention from
people who were abroad at that hour
Although the spectral oolors were not
distinguishable the bow itself was
very bright and the concentric bands
composing it were easily discernable.
One end of the arch seemed to rest
on the Hogbsek and the other on the
Greenhorn mountains. From the hor-
izon to the zenith the bow was brill
liantly outlined and vas a phenome-
non not often seen in this latitude.
The moon was just coming up at the
time. Many people JAILED their friends
up over the telephone and informed
them OF the unusual character Of
scene some OF whom had never Wit
messed rainbow at night before.

NEW CONGRESSMAN

Increase In Misslssippi's Popula-
ton Expected to Increase
Representation.

Mississippi. IT. Is believed, will get a
new congressman under the re appor-
tionment according TO the census OF
1910. Advices from Washington are
such that politicians believe the
state will be entitled to another MEM
Der OF congress, and there IL much
speculation as to how the state will
be apportioned
Mississippi gained one congressman
after the last census, as did Louisiana,
and il the membership is increased on
the basis OF ope member Of congress
for every 10000 population, AS II
seems will be done, then this state
will have nine congressman beginning
with 1912 There has been talk, of
course. OF reducing representation 10
the South, but this will never be al
lowed, though Mr.. Crumpacker has
made a bitter fight for such an act
practically ever since he has been a
member OF the house.
Alta conference on the question H.
was suggested that one member OF
congress be allowed for each Ill 1000
population, which would not allow q.
other member from Mississippi, but
since this would mean loss TO some
OF the eastern states, IL is believed
the apportionment will be made on
the basis OF one representative for
each 10000 persons, which would
give Mississippi one more congress
man, as this state would have sur
plus population Of 10000 over sucl
apportionment
Mississippi shows a gain, since thu
last census, OF about 100000, which
would give her, under the present ap
portionment, Two additional member
OF congress, but since the representa-
tion will be increased only abou
, forty. dive, Mississippi probably vii
. get one new member.
