The bride is the youngest daughter
of Mr.. and Mrs. William A. Marvin

greater part of her life. She has
visited here on different occasions and
during those times she made many
friends by her pleasant disposition
and delightful manner She is a lady
of splendid womanly qualities and her
advent as a resident of Canon City
will be hailed with JOY by all who
know her.
Mr.. Wood was raised in Canon City

a man of far more tina naverage abil-
ity and is known to be possessed Of
exemplary habits. For the past few
years he has been head clerk for The
Bethel Clothing company

pie, the most important of which, per-
haps, was the pleasant little home,
completely furnished. at 215 Greea-
wood and which was given to them
by Mr.. G. T. Wood. the father of the
groom.
A sincere welcome is sure to be ac-
corded the happy couple when they

POINTS OF HISTORIC INTEREST

While endeavoring to make our city
attractive TO tourists. why not suit
ably mark our points of historic in
terest? The spot on Four Mile creek
where, in 1863 Joseph Lamb killed
the outlaw, Espinosia, and the site of
the fort built by the French trader;
Maurice, on Adobe creek, can still be
located. Let us remember that very
soon the parties who can point out
these spots will pass away.
A movement is already on foot for
marking the site of Pixies blockhouse
the first white mans habitation in
Colorado. Let us hope that it will
succeed.
The site of Col, william Bent's first
fort. built in 1926, was in the eastern
part of Fremont county, but is nov
unknown; an endeavor to find and
mark it would be an act of local pat
riotism.
The American traveller who visits
a European city is reminded of and
escorted to points of far less inter
est and Importance than these have
named
Kind and enterprising public. let
us take the hint.

FIGHT AT D. & R. G..
STATION SATURDAY EVENING

\ decidedly lively "mix-up" took
place at the Denver & Rio Grande
railroad station between six and sew
en- O'Clock Saturday evening, the par
ticipsnts being Roy Mullins and U. 4
Robertson The trouble is said to
have grown out of some ungentlemali-
ly remarks made by Robertson in re-
lation to some ladies with whom he
had seen Mullins walking on the
streets. At the railroad station Mui-
lins resented in an emphatic manner
Robertson's rudeness and the latter
had to be taken TO the hospital in an
ambulance Robertson made a motion
with his right hand as though he in
tended to draw a weapon of some
kind and Mullins knocked him down
and for some time thereafter the for
mer, like Congressman Watson, u
: Georgia, didn't know where he was
at" It was at first believed that Rob
ertson had been killed, but he regain
ed consciousness on being taken 20
/ the hospital and seemed little tine
worse for the beating he had received.
Robertson came here a few months
ago from Quincy. Illinois, and, it is
alleged. that he occasionally gets on
such intimate terms with John Bar
leycorn" as TO incapacitate him from
work of any kind. at which times II"
is quarrelsome with those about him
One day last week complaint WIS
made at the sheriff's office that Rob
ertson was raising "old Ned" at MAJ
bourne's dairy on North Ninth street
and an officer was dispatched there u
disarm him and bring him to town for
punishment. He was taken into Gus
tody and arraigned before Justice
Logan on the charge of disturbing th'
peace where he was assessed the us
ual fine and costs and his revolver
confscated by the authorities. II,
paid up and was dismissed from fur
ther punishment.

A hobo came near getting his
last reward in the yards about
three o'clock this morning. The
switchman kicked some cars
down on a side track and hap
pening to go past there some
time later heard a man calling
for help. Upon invegtigation
they found a man wedged in
between a pile of lumber and
the end of the car with the life
nearly crushed out of him. He
was finally released by tearing
off the end of the car and taken
to the Heise hospital where it
was found no bones were
broken but the man was quite
badly bruised. He was taken
70, one of the restaurants and
put to bed and given a square
meal and at last reports was
feeling pretty good.

Culavin Wins His Match

Harold Culavin of this city,
VIII, wrestled g. M. Dill at
Boo le last Saturday evening,
won I'll, n itch in two straight
falls in seven and five minutes
respectively. After the match
one of the spectators said he
would bet a hundred dollars he
colll throw both wrestlsrs in
holt an hour. They finally con-
vinced him that he better tackle
Culavin first and if he threw
him it was time enough to
tackle the other man. They
finally went to the mat and
Culavin secured the first fall in
seven minutes and the second
in six. The man acknowledged
his defeat and said he guessed
b., was covering a little too
much territory when he guar
. ,teed to throw both of them
il half an hour.

Moving Pictures
For Geography

Thomas A. Edison is quoted
as saying that geography will
be taught by means of moving
pictures, as soon as the ma
chimes and films for producing
them become inexpensive
enough. He favors such teach
ing, asserting that he ''can
teach more geography in fif-
teen minutes with the moving
picture machines than the
schools as now equipped can
teach as many days"
In explanation of how he
would conduct a geography les
son the inventor says he would
first show the relation to other
countries of the country to be
studied by pictures and maps.
Then he would throw on the
screen motion pictures taken
in streets of the principal
towns and others showing to-
biographical features, such as a
view of a mountain range
taken from a moving train.
Further illustrations would be
of products of the country.
There can be no doubt tina.
the application of this idea
would mean great improve
ment in the teaching of geogra-
ply. That study, dry and
vague under the conventional
treatment, would become vital
lied and made Of personal in
terest to every pupil. The
moving picture in the school
would take away much of the
fascination that exists in nickel
theaters, where good and bad
pictures are too frequently
mingled. Other subjects than
geography, such as nature
studies and the drama, could
we'll be taught by this means
Let us hope the fulfillment of
Mr.. Edison's prophecy is not
far distant Record Herald.

Swat The Fly.

Do it, and do it hard. Clean
up all rubbish around your pre-
misses that breed flies and make
this a aieless town. More con-
tageous diseases are carried by
the fly than by any other agent.
Just think of a fly which has
been feasting on some swill
pail crawling over your baby's
face. 1t isn't a pleasant picture
to contemplate, but it is a fact
which happens every day in the
summer. Do your part in kill
ing off the flies, and if your
neighbor will do the same, we
will soon have a flieless town.
