the dominant forces in the life Of .he

Buddha were to some extent atheistic
they were characterized. according to
DIR. Fulkerson. by an elevated human

doctrine that release from existence f.
the greatest good and that there is no
such thing as the annihilation of life
Buddhists believe in the transmigra-

MRS. HALDEM WINS MACHINE

The fifty-first ticket drawn in the
big drawing for the free Free sew
ing machine at the opera house or
Tuesday afternoon proved to be that
of Mrs. z. u. Haldeman. 220 South
Twelfth street. and she was the luck,
one.
About $50 women were present at
the demonstration, which was held un-
der the auspices OF the Holcomb Fur
niture company. local agents for the
Free sewing machine. The demonstra-
ton, which was a part Of the after
Moons program. was conducted by Mr..
&c. Z. Matthias Of Denver. official dem
onstrator for the Free people. A novel
feature was the fact that Mr.. Mathiaf
sang a song which he had composed
himself and which illustrated aptly
the various strong points of the ma.
chine.
The sewing machine that was given
away is valued at SIS. Besides the win
ner, fifty ladies' got due bills worth
five dollars which will apply on the
purchase OF machine.
Mr.. X. T. Holcomb. who engineered
the affair. was greatly pleased with
the number OF ladies who attended
the demonstration and considers tn,
afternoon a complete success. Espe-
ciall so with the drawing. as all the
judges we're ladies picked at random
from the audience by the audience
themselves. Miss Pansy Allison drew
the tickets from the box.

erai weeks on account OF being hurt
by a horse.
Mr.. Weld Is In the horse business

RANCHERS URGED
TO FEED BIRDS

L. A. Poteet of Brush Hollow. dep
uty game warden for Fremont county.
was a visitor in Canon City Friday.
Mr.. Poteet has been devoting a good
deal of time since the recent snow
storm to the feeding and protection
Of quails and other game birds. deer.
antelope. etc. all OF which had the
principal sources of their food sup
ply cut off in consequence OF IT,
Mr.. Protect says that deer and an
telope have appeared In half-starved
condition at many OF the mountain
ranches during the las. week or ten
days and that they freely minsie
with the cattle and other domestic
stock at feeding time. Mr.. Poteet ex-
presses his appreciation OF the kind
ness with which these animals are
treated by ranchers and others. who
might otherwise easily take advantage
of their adversely to kill them. Ac-
cording TO Mr.. Poteet q good many
quaiis and other wild birds have al
ready died Of starvation. but in many
instances they are being taken care
OF by people and are likely to get
through the winter all right. In some
neighborhoods In the county regular
feeding places for birds have been e.
tablished and they are visited every
day or two by the ranchers and grain
scattered on the ground for the feath-
cred population TO eat.
According to Mr.. Poteet game OF all
kinds is getting along better than had
been expected would be the case Mt
the time of the late storm. due In some
measure to the kindness OF ranchmsn
In providing food for them during the
period OF their misfortune.
Mr.. Potect suggests that the feeding
Of wild creatures during the cold.
snowy weather would DO a practical
form OF charity. especially at the
Christmas season. and he urges people
who know where n eovey OF quaiis are
to be found. or some half-starved deer
or antelope have their resort. to carry
to them an occasional feed OF grain
while the anow iasts.

BEAUTIFUL CHRISTMAS MUSIC

Musical programs OF a special char
acter were rendered by the choirs of
most OF the churches OF Canon City on
Sunday and there were larger con-
gregations than usual at most of them
because OF the approach Of the Christ
mas holidays.
The music at the First Methodist
and the First Presbyterian churches
Sunday was especially elaborate and
beautiful and attracted large audi
ences Notwithstanding the prevailing
cold weather. The music heard in
Canon City churches is not surpassed
in excellence in any Of the communi-
ties Of this size In the state and the
programs given In them at the Christ
mas and Easter seasons are not ex-
cecded In quality BY the saIaried choirs
Of metropolitan churches.

BIG EXPRESS
& SHIPMENTS MADE

The outgoing express business from
Canon City at present is considerably
in excess OF that OF the corresponding
period twelve months ago and gives
promise of establishing a record for
the holiday season unequalled In pre-
vious years.
The incoming holiday business has
thus far been comparatively small
with the express companies. but IL is
expected to take on large proportions
within the next few days. On Tuesday
Of this week the Wells Fargo Ex-
press company's collections on outgo-
ing business at the Canon City office
were $3.50. which was Sass cents
more than was taken in from the same
source during the corresponding date
In December. 1912. The collections on
outgoing packages at the Wells Fargo
office on Thursday of this week were
$50. which established n new mark
for outgoing business. A great many
boxes OF apples are being forwarded
by express to eastern points BY Canon
City people this season. and It is from
this feature Of the business that the
receipts Of the express companies have
been largely recruited.
