Human Hair Lace.

Lace made from human hair Is moi
manufactured in the Prague consular
district, but probably will be before
long. The lace is made IN strips and
the hair Is held in place by a solution
OF wax; otherwise the lace would un
ravel. The article is made by hand
and the pattern resembles the cells IN
a honeycomb on a very small scale
II is used in the manufacture OF wigs
made from human hair. but is used
only where the hair is parted on the

DEATH OF
COLONEL MEEK
Leading Spirit .of Marble
Passes Away as Result of
Injuries Received il Troll
ley Accident.

Colonel Claiming +. Meek, 81,
one of the best known citizens Of
Colorado and president uf the Colo
RADIO Y,le Marble company, died at
his home in Marble last Wednes-
day as result of injuries received
in a wrecked trolley car. Colonel
Neck and party OF officials of the
company were returning to Marble
after tour Of inspection Of the
quarry when the accident-occurred.
The accident was caused when Il
new car on an electric tramway sys-
tenn became unmauageablc and
dashed down a steep incline. The
four occupants of the car, including
Colonel Meek, jumped. Internal
complications caused the well
known financicr's death. Colonel
Mcck's companions We're bruised
but not seriously injured.
Ii was in 1891 that Colonel Neck
purchased the white marble deposits
mt Marble, in Gunnison county. He
has been actively i'll charge of the
conpany's affairs since its organ
nation. The plant has always
prospered. Since that time these
uuarries have supplied most of the
marble in the construction OF Colo
RADIO buildings. Recently the com
pany was awarded contract to
supply marble for the interior of
the new million dollar Municipal
building in New York.
Colonel Meek received his title in
1885 when he was appointed a
lieutenant colonel by Governor b.
r. Sherman of Iowa. He was
married to Miss Fannie Melbourne
at Xcnia, Ohio, in 1879. They
have two children, Helen and
Phillip. The Colorado Yulc Marble
company will probably be rcorganiz-
ed with J. c. Osgood as president.
Osgood has been associated with
Colonel Meek in the marble COM
pany as we'll as the Colorado Fuel

PILOT STARTS
35TH YEAR
Paper Has Passed Through
More or Less Prosperous
Existence and Is Nearly
Old Enough for Bald
Headed Row.

Has it ever occurred to you that
the Pilot (for the benefit of worthy
but criticizing contemporaries we
note that this case has no small
caps) is the oldest paper in Gunni-
son county? Well, the old settlers
say that it is and the Pilot is rather
proud of the distinction. The Pilot
starts on its 35th year this week.
The Pilot was established 81 years
ago by John L. Phillips, ut what is
now known as the old town Of
Irwin. Later, the paper wa. moved
TO Crested Butte, when this town
was started and outclasscd all Sur
rounding camps in growth.
The Pilot has recorded the hap
penings of all the Elk Mountain
mining camps from the very begin
ming and the old files present a vast
fund Of information and contain
much interesting history. 116S is
the total number Of issues Of the
Pilot that have been published.

two stories and basement. The
foundation is of concrete and the
upper walls are to be built of cream

the brick are on the ground. The

to complete the house before cold

1t is reported, however, that
owing to the lateness of last

There is a tendency to refrain

DRY WEATHER
HELPS RANCKERS
Prospects for Hayins are the
Best and Crop is Heavy.

Owing to the plentiful rainfall
throughout the summer, this
years hay crop is exceptionally
heavy. The rains last week de-
layed haying operations to an ap-
preciable extent, but with the
dry weather which is character
izing this week, haying is on in
earnest.
The hay crop of Gunnison
comfy will aggregate thousands
of dollars. When you see 'em
