Of
UTAH TRIP
Colorado Springs Man Who Accom-
panied the Grand Junction Boost
ers to Salt Lake Is Very En-
thusiastic Over Outlook.

Business men and good-roads /.
boosters on the western slope of Col ]
orado and in Utah are fully awake |
to the Importance of the proposed !
transcontinental highways, and es- !
pecially of the Lincoln highway. in
the opinion of Leonard f. Curtis of
this city, who, with A. w Allen,
chairman of the state highway com
mission, made the trip to Salt Lake
City last week, says the Colorado
Springs Telegraph,
They We're accompanied by strong
delegations from Grand Junction and
other towns on the western slope,
and very successful meetings were
held at Price, Provo, Spanish Forks
and Salt Lake City. As result,
Carbon and Utah counties pledged
themselves to raise about $4,000
each to build the roads through their
counties and have the work complet-
ed by July /. Mr.. Curtis and the
other Colorado men We're pleasantly
surprised with the energy and enter
prise of the commercial clubs in the
| Utah towns visited, and Mr.. Curtis
| paid very high compliment to the
splendid spirit in which the delega-
| tion from Colorado was received. The
Salt Lake club especially impressed
the Colorado men as one of the most
enterprising and effective organiza-
tions of the kind in the United States.
"Our visit to Utah was at the most
opportune time, said Mr.. Curtis to-
day, "for the reason that the Utah
state highway commission had about
decided to build from Salt Lake City
by the northern route via Meeker and
through Routt county, We were able
to show them that this route is not
feasible one on account of the ire
mendous SHOWS that block the roads
until late in the summer, and the
fact that they could not make any
good Colorado connection. The re
suit is that the Utah people viii
build to connect with the Lincolr
highway through Grand Junction
and from the Colorado line through
Grand, Uintah, Carbon and Utah
counties to Salt Lake. The first two
counties named are poor, and will
have to receive state help; but the
Colorado western slope men showed
their spirit by assuring the Utah mer
that, if any further assistance /:
needed, they will give a substantial
fund. Carbon and Utah counties will
take care of themselves and have g
splendid road built this summer
Through Salt Lake county the roat

TRINIDAD BOY KILLED
HIMSELF OVER SCHOOL.

Trinidad, Colo, Apr. 24-Investi-
CATION has established that Dwight
George. the 15-year-old son of Mr..
and Mrs. ]. ID. George, prominent
residents of Hoehne, in the Sunfiower
valley, who died at the home of his
grandparents in Pueblo Saturday,
committed suicide by drinking an
ounce vial of strychnine.
When the boy died the attending
physician pronounced death due to
ptomaine poisoning; but a later ex-
animation established the fact that
the youth had taken his own life by
drinking the contents of the drug
bottle that was found.
The boy had been attending school
at Pueblo, and last Friday his mother
went to visit him. The following
day he complained about not wanting
TO attend school any more and his
mother thought to persuade him diff
ferently. With money that his mo-
ther had given him. he bought vial
OF strychnine, and, going to a bed
room, drank IL.

APR|COTS TO
Be REAL FACTOR

81 believe we will have a bumper
crop of apricots this year" said
Frank r. Davis, assistant manager of
the Grand junction Fruit Growers
association, today. IF the uninjur-
ed blooms now on the trees develop
into fruit we will have to ship april
cots, for the first time in our history,
in carload lots.
The apricots have been such an in
significant part of the fruit crop in
the Grand valley this year that the
associations have made no unusual
provisions for handling them 1t
looks now, however, as if this early
product will become an important
factor in the shipping this fall.
A large number of growers have
a few apricot trees and a few have
a considerable number. Together.
the valleys crop will become an i'm
portant element worth a great deal
of money.
1t has never been necessary here
tofore to ship them in carloads, but
there is a general belief that express
packages will not handle the yield

RIO GRANDE TO
GIVE Up THE
COAL LAND

By n compromise esiected between
United States District Attorney Harry
h. Kelly for the federal land office,
and Joel F. Vale, general counsel
for the Denver & Rio Grande system,
S.465 acres of coal lands in Color
ado. OF a market value of S1,T55. 50.
held by the Utah Fuel and the Calu-
met Fuel companies, subsidiaries of
the railway system, have been con
veyed back to the United States gov
ernment, and will be thrown open
TO purchase.
The lands are situated in Huera-
fano. Gunnison and La Plata counties
ond comprise some of the best btu
minous coal deposits in the West.
Eventually, when mined on prevail
ing royalties of from Sc to &C a ton,
the>values will aggregate many mil
lions The largest tract is in La
Plata county and embraces 5,3S5
acres of unpatented and $40 acres
of patented lands.
Close to the city of Pueblo is a
tract of 400 acres and the remaining
/ $40 acres are in Gunnison. The
last named acreage is the most val
liable there being eight veins out
cropping, of total thickness of 40
feet.
Allegations of fraud through dunn
my entrymen by the government were
given corroborative evidence by Spe-
cial Agents Ralph S. Kelly. H. II.
Mancha, Eugene Lacy and James n.
Anderson, working under direction
of NJ. ID. McEniry, chief of the spe-
cial land division, with offices in
Denver. and the work has been in
progress for over two years. At one
time Robert Forester, geologist of
the Utah Fuel company, and other
officers were under Indictment,
charged with illegal entries. but ac-
quittal of some of the accused result
ed in dismissal of the remaining
charges after Forrester's death.
Moneys paid the government for
the lands, totaling 100000. are
forfeited by the compromise. The
only point conceded the corporations
was that suits for recovery of value
of coal mined from claims on which
the alleged fraudulent entries were
beyond the statute of limitation will
be discontinued.
