 GOING ON TRIP
Distinguished President T. o.
 C. Will Wake Up Leaven- worth for Period = That It's Honeymoon Is Denied

Col. Matt Dillon. president of the T. O. C., active in northern Mexico diplomacy, reputed wealthy mining man and endower Of high class sera- inaries. as attested by some tons of mail matter received from the latter dur.ng the summer months. is going on vacation.
 Preliminary to the same. the col. onel resigned from his active connec- tiOn with the Eedelweiss yesterday and set about seeing to it that an ex- tensive ward robe be properly packed by a corps of valets directed by Leo Cannon. the icolonel's versatile prt vate secretary whenever he has odd iGie moments on hand.
 The cOlonels wardrobe with excep. tion of five suitcases and a photo graph presented him some time back. which he will carry for purposes of Identification, will leave in advance of his departure. probably by ex- press on Saturday It will be all marked handle with care. this side up, for it is packed mostly in cases with cork tips.
 The colonel Is hising himself and his wardrobe to Leavenworth. Kan sas, and is likely to distribute more joy. vim. vigor and snap in that old precinct during his stay than 1t nas had kicked around in quite a long while, for the. genial gentleman of the shining dome is going to show them how they do it at their best in Bisbee. the which is in class at the top of the column and all by itself. Incidentally he will line up big T. O. c. organization as new limb for the parent tree in Bisbee. That it will be a hummer goes without the saying.
 Colonel Dillon honored Leaven- worth by being born there. Though he was still in his teens when he left the place. it has never quite got over the loss. Some of this he hopes 10 make up for on the present trip, and indeed may build a memorial column of marble or a skyscraper dedicate| to the old days of his childhood in ludl hdppg bhA .bs ray VI hNAPAAA= square things. Following departure from Leavenworth, the colonel at tained fame in the theatrical world. Twenty years ago he was at the Top among comedians, and some sweet singer, too. The only place he ever baked in the latter line was at yodL ing. Today, all he needs to do to get a theatrical engagement at his own price from any manager any where, is just to smile once.
 The theatrical world paled in the eye of the colonel when he made a tour through the mining camps of the west. They had the show business beat a mile. and the colonel hooked on his little wagon. He has been rid ing ever since. which wasn't always the case in the shCa business. Co ing back to Leavenworth he will oc- cupy a drawing room and two state rooms, one of the latter to keep his baggage in and the other to contem- plate sleeping in, while the drawing room will be. strictly for entertain ment purposes. The colonel cen  templates being some busy along that line all the way back. -.r
 When he decorates the Leayen- worth terra firma some time toward the last of next week it will be for the first time in 36 years. And at that ;he colonel is not old. Also he is still an eligible bachelor, and re- ports that this trip is really to be a wedding trip are not true, although it is said that the T. O. C. intends turn ing out 300 strong to see him of and that they will have ' barrel of rice along. Everybody in the district knows Matt and they will all wish him a grand old time on his tour. He expects to be absent about two rnonthg
