0. & R. G. CHANGES
NO. 10 SCHEDULE To
ACCOMMODATE SHIPPERS


The Denver and Rio Crande rail-
road has done a splendid thing for
Canon City and has plainly shown
that she has the interests OF Canon
City at heart, by changing the time
Of No. 10. This train beginning today
will leave here at 5:15 in the after
noon instead of i:05 p. m. as formerly
and the change was made purely TO
help the fruit shippers of Canon City
who we're losing thousands of dollars
a month by the former schedule be-
cause they could not get their ship
ments ready to go at four o'clock.
The extension OF an hours time
means a great deal TO the shippers
and growers of this district and they
ought to appreciate the change made
by the Denver & Rio Grande. General
Passenger Agent F. A. wadleigh and
General Superintendent Rockwell. In
vestigated the situation here at the
instigation Of the commission men and
other shippers and the business mems
association, and they decided that the
change would be greatly beneficial 10
Canon City. They therefore made the
change despite the fact that II was
strongly opposed by Colorado Springs
and Pueblo and also despite the fact
that 1t meant the loss OF a great deal
of passenger traffic into Denver from
those cities on this train.
The train, leaving here at 5:15 D.
m, will get into Pueblo at 6:i0. leav-
ing there ten minutes later. 1t viii
leave Colorado Springs at s.l5 and get
into Denver at IOI5 p. IN.
Canon City business men are ex-
pressing their appreciation OF this
change in more ways than one.
Since the advent OF the old schedule
much OF the fruit business on the
Denver market was lost to Canon City
because Of the inability OF the ship
pers here to get their consignments
into Denver in time for the early
morning trade.
Previously. when No. 4 left here
about six o'clock Canon City had all
this small fruit trade In Denver. In
the new change It is expected that
they will again gain a monopoly.

STATE EDITORS FINE STAND

Therefore. be it resolved. That
the Colorado Editorial association IS
opposed to the unfair. unnecessary
and INSCRIPTIONS use OF the initia-
tive and referendum by certain inter
ests and certain people. not only to
further their own selfish ends and
purposes, but also to belittle the real
purpose OF the initiative and referea-
dunn when properly used by circulat-
ing petitions to refer and thereby lie
up laws already passed by the iegis-
lature and demanded by the people.
( BE 1t further resolved, That the
Colorado Editorial association urges
the voters of this state to help reduce
taxes by refusing to sign all initiated
and referred measures unless each
voter shall personally investigate the
merits Of each measure and becomes
personally ssasfied that it is Of state
wide interest and Importance and de-
mand."
When the Colorado State Editorial
association passed this resolution at
the annual meeting last Monday at
Colorado Springs. it established high
record in civic patriotism and unself-
ish loyalty to the best interests Of the
state. From the standpoint Of plain
business the members OF the assocla-

educational methods of Catholic
schools as he was with state institu-
tions. He is very prominent in the
affairs of the state Teachers College
at Greeley.
He declared that educators in gener-
al In these days were becoming to see
that religion could not be divorced
from education and he cited re-
marks by G. Stanley Hall and David
Starr Jordon, prominent educational
men to substantiate his assertions. He
said that there was n worldwide
movement against all kinds of i'm
morality and that in time this pro-
gressive work would have its benefi-

WOMAN CAPITALIZES
POVERTY AND AUTO
Stranded with Car and No Money,
She Becomes "Chaperone-
Chauifeuse,"

New York. Oct. 5.-The newest means
of livelihood has been happily hit upor
by a bright New York woman who terms
herself a Observation-Disclosures Ac-
cording to her story, when the necessity
of choosing an occupation arose, she had
no capital save her clothes and her
auto.
So fond was she of her car that, in
thinking OF waps and means of keeping
it, she conceived the idea of making il
pay for itself The idea of chaperoning
school girls, young women, and out-of-
town parties in shopping and helping
them in whatever connections car
might be useful met with immediate re-
Spouse and her services were in such de-
mand that the very first month she
cleared more than 500.
Naturally other lines of service were
found from time to time aBd now she
has a busy and welI-paid stan of highly
intelligent young women who, can not
only run car, but are well informed
and tactful, familiar with the shops,
tearooms, hotels, and other places of in
terest, and qualified in every way to
be companions to women or culture and
means.
She has also developed a busy branch
of her business in the furnishing of
escorts from the finer class of men for
theaters and the cafes, where she ar
ranges with the head walters for special
tables and attention for her clients. Thus
the woman living lonely in her apart
ment or hotel need no longer feel con-
fined by her four walls, for a phone call
to the chaperone-chauffeuse is as potent
as any words of magic to carry her into

INARTISTIC,
SAYS GERMAN VISITOR
Wilhelm Stucke Also Complains of the
Methods of Customs House
Inspectors.

The first impression received OF
America was not exactly agreeable or
pleasant" said Herr Wilhelm Stucke, q
wealthy coal mine operator OF Gelsen-
'kirchen, Germany, who is visiting this
country, and was seen at the Raleigh
last night
After landing in New York we were
detained in the customs house sheds near
the steamship wharf for three hours -
said Herr Stucke. There were many
hundreds of passengers and the process
OF inspecting their trunks and baggage
by the custom house inspectors was tedi-
Gus and unnecessarily slow. The heat
in the sheds was almost unbearable
IF America were a poor country there
probably might be an excuse for a state
OF affairs like this. but being rich, il
looks like careleSsness OF an unpardon-
able nature.
Americans. seem to have no sense of
the artistic, according TO Herr Stucke,
who said that In manufacturing cities
especially, the unclean appearance of the
streets was an eyesO"c to those who were
accustomed to cleanliness and order.
Il Travelled through yUl. coal mining
and iron mine dist lets and everything
has the appearance of fiimsiness. There
is nothing substantial in the company's
mine buildings; everything looks super
fetal. as if it had been put up to last
for a short time only"
Speaking of relations between Germany
and England Herr Stucke said that the
German people mistrusted .he English
because the latter so often had deceived
them, and had not kept their promises.
He said that Germany had no idea of
going to war with England and that she
was building a strong navy mainly TO
protect her ever-increasing commerce.
