Woman Robbed Of Diamonds.

Somewhere east OF La Junta, Mrs.
II. q. Seymour. wealthy society
woman Of Kansas City. Mo-, en- route
to Colorado Springs. was robbed while
asleep in her berth on a westbound
Santa Fe passenger train early Thurs.
day morning. of about $4,000 worth
OF diamonds and 800 In money. The
thief made his escape before the rob
berry was discovered. 1t Is thought.
on westbound train that followed
the train on which Mrs. Seymour was
riding.
IL was thought that the train-bur-
glar caught a train for Pueblo and
the authorities here were notified to
keep close lookout for the man.
whose description was furnished. A
detective boarded the train at La
Junta and accompanied II to Colorado
Springs thinking that the thief
might be on the train somewhere.
As a precaution against thieves,
Mrs. Seymour upon retiring pinned q
chamOis bag containing the jewels
and money inside her night gown.
The thief evidently working with
lightning fingers took the bag from
its hiding place without awaking the
sleeper. Mrs. Seymour did not dis
cover the theft until Dodge City was
reached early Thursday morning. AL
cities along the route were notified
and furnished with a description Of
the person supposed to have commit-
ted the deed.
Mrs. Seymour. at her hotel In Col
orado Springs was almost prostrated
over the loss of the valuable jewelry
and refused TO see anyone.

Colorado a Heavy ceaI Producer.

In the production of coal Colorado
ranks first among the states west
ct the Mississippi and seventh among
all the coal producing states, accord
ing 10 statistics Just completed by
Edward W. Parker. Of the United
States Geological Survey. Its posi-
ton among the western states was
strengthened by the record made In
1910. for although In some Of the
Rocky Mountain states there were
larger percentages OF Increase In
1910 over 1909. Colorado's increase In
tonnage was the largest and was
more than one.ihird of the total In.
crease made In the seven states
comprising the Rocky Mountain and
great plains provinces. In the MIS-.
sissippi Valley states the production
In 1910 was materially cut down by
the miners strike. which began on
April ist and was continued for near.
~ six months. The cessation of
operations among the miners In the
southwestern states created nm un.
usual demand upon the mines Of Col
orado. New Mexico and wyoming. thu
demand coming principally from the
railroads running between the Rocky
Mountains and the Mississippi There
was also . better demand Tor don,cs'

Of coal for winter were stored In this

otsro County Check cashed in Iowa.

Last month County Treasurer Daw.
ley issued check on the Colorado
Savings and Trust Company to c. e.
Fuller OF Rocky Ford, for months
salary as deputy assessor. A few
days later Mr.. Dawley received an
inquiry from MIR. Fuller wanting to
know why he had not received his
regular monthly stipend. and was no.
titled that check had been sent
the first of the month. MIR, Fuller
said that he never received II. In
due course OF time the check issued
by Mr.. Dawley turned up at the Col
Orado Savings and Trust Company.
II had been endorsed by c. f. Full.
Ter and cashed by bank In Van
Vert, Iowa. The cancelled check
was returned to MIR. Dawley, who at
once communicated with Mr.. Fuller
and told him OF the circumstances.
Mr. Fuller came to La Junta. inspect.
ed the check and pronounced the en-
dorsement forgery. He said he had
never been In Iowa In the whole
course OF his life. The bank In Iowa
was notified that the endorsement on
the check was forgery. and In course
OF time a letter was received from
the cashier OF the Iowa bank. accom-
panied by an affidavit In which he
msde the observation that he was
positive the man who endorsed the
check was c. T.. Fuller. because he
had been Identified by a daughter OF
one OF the directors of the bank who
had known the endorser for six
months. Mr.. Fuller. OF Rocky Ford.
TO whom the check was issued, is
Just as positive that he never WAS In
IOWA In his life. and that he never
received the check. SO there Is n
discrepancy somewhere which will
probably have to be adjusted by the
cashier Of the Iowa bank.
