lDenver Republican,

At last the economical state en-
ploye has been discovered. At the
meeting of the state auditing board
held yesterday morning the following
item was discovered in the expense
account of B. s. Clayton of the state
engineers office: ITO lunch on train,
10 cents
Governor Shafroth is said to have
beamed with joy when this item was
discovered. 1t seemed prima facie evil
dence that his campaign for cheaper
meals on trains and dining cars was
bearing fruit. oother bills there were
for meals on trains, most of them
ranging we'll over 81, but this one
man, after the governors own heart,
had satisfied his hunger by the expen-
diture of the small sum of one dime.
He will be an example held up before
the extravagant state employees who
insist that they must spend more than
81 to get anything to eat on a train.
1t is only within the last few weeks
that the auditing board, composed of
the five executive officers of the state

SECURED MONEY ON
Personal CHECKS

A somewhat shabbily dressed, but
otherwise plausible appearing young
man who gave his name as R. A. Mil
ler, secured a considerable sum OF
money about town late Monday after
noon by exchanging worthless person
al checks for cash. He represented
himself as a rancher lately removed
to Canon City. and, by an apparently
straightforward story, experienced
but little difficulty in inducing his
victims to separate themselves from
the desired wherewith.
J. r. Rosson, bookkeepr for the Glib
son Lumber company. was duped to
the extent OF Ave dollars by the strang-
er, and, as the plan OF his operations
in that case was typical 1t will apply.
except in a few minor details, to the
Instances in which his system" was
successful.
Miller entered the ONCE where Mr..
Rosson was at work and stated that
he had recently purchased a ranch a
couple of miles east OF town and was
the subject of building a
house and would like to know some
thing about the price OF lumber. He
said that he was not rich by any
means but had a few hundred dollars
In the bank which he could AFFORD to
invest in building materials The
interested Mr.. Rosson
from business standpoint and he Of
forded his visitor Let of information
in relation to the matter. Miller said
that he had worked on his ranch un-
Ill late that afternoon and was disap-
pointed to find the bank clossd on his
arrival in town. as he needed little
money and had intended to withdraw
I'VE uolidTs IrOm MS account lHeTe. II
Mr.. Rosson would cash a check for
hat amount 1t would oblige him
greatly and save him the necessity OF
coming back the next morning. Mr..
Rosson demurred to the request at
first but finally decided to let him
have the money on a personal check,
which Miller proceeded to write out in
he regular form. The next morning
Mr.. Rosson learned that Miller had
40 money at either of the banks here
and that the check was worthless. He
also ascertained that several other
Canon City people had been worked"
n like manner by the honest looking
md simple minded stranger. Miller

WELSH CHOIR MAY
SING HERE AGAIN

n will be of much interest to the
barge number of Fremont County peo-
ple who heard the Mountain Ash Male
Choir of Wales, last winter, to know
that these Worlds Best Singers" will
visit the Pacific coast this coming
season and will sing in a few places
in Colorado, en- route, and probably
Canon City will be SO fortunate as
to he one of these. favored few. The
tour of the Choir last season was not
very satisfactory, financially, so they
have secured the services of Mr.. j..
H. K. Martin, a prominent musical
business man of Denver, as manager,
and no doubt will have very prosper
Gus season this year.
Mr.. David Griffiths, the big-hearted,
patriotic Welshman. Supt. of Fremont
Mine of the c. F.& l. Co., who had SO
much to do with bringing the Choir
to Canon City last year, desires that
our people shall have one more oppor-
tunity of hearing these singers from
his native land and has been in cor
respondence with Mr.. Martin to this
end. Mr.. Martin wanted a large in
o-oa.n - tha o,,,oupt nf prtaranfee
over last year and stated positively
that another year they would sing
only in large cities as the guarantee
would again be increased and would
be too great for the smaller places
From this, 1t will readily be seen
that, If the choir comes here this seas
on, the people of this city will not
only have an unusual privilege in hav-
ing such high class singing right at
their doors, but that this will, un-
doubtedly, be the last time this fam
Gus choir will sing here and, though
the price OF admission viii be some
what more than last year. Mr.. Griffths
will need and should get the cordial
support, of every lover of good sing
ing in this whole community. We
predict that he will and suggest that
those, desiring to again hear these
Welsh singers communicate with him
at Fremont Mine or with Mr.. Van Pat
ton, of this city and announcement
will be made later OF the results of
his efforts.

Expense Account Of Dime
For Meal P1eases Governor

government, has audited expense ac-
counts. When this practice was be-
gun, Governor Shafroth issued his or
der that state employees must not
spend more than rs cents for meal.
Objections were raised that "six bits"
on dining car meant nothing to eat.
The governor came back with the re-
ply that he never paid that much for
his meal, and that 1o-cent tip was
all that the waiter was entitled to.
The result has been that all charges
made for meals have been cut to 75
cents in spite of the protests of the
state officials who are accustomed to
live on the fat of the land.
Gov. Shafroth was almost alone in
his contention that a meal on a train
should not cost 81 until yesterday
when the engineer who found the sum
o fone dime sufficient was discovered.
The governor now has reason to be-
lieve that his contention ia justified,
although some of the other members
of the board are inclined TO the opin-
ion that the 10 cents mentioned may
have been expended for bag of
peanuts from the train boy.
