HURT IN RUNAWAY
TUESDAY AFTERNOON

John c. Hyssong is receiving med
ical treatment at his home. 503 Col
lege avenue. for injuries received in
consequence of being thrown out OF n
wagon by a team of runaway horses
at his ranch in the vicinity of Guffey
late last Tuesday afternoon. Mr.. Hys-
song and a man in his employ by the
name of jackson were driving down a
steep hill with a load Of potatoes
when one OF the horses. which was
not thoroughly broken to work, took
fright and kicked over the wagoi
tongue; resulting in both animals
becoming unmanageable. Unable to
control the team the wagon hub
struck a tree at the side of the road
and both Mr.. Hyssong and his COM
panion we're thrown violently out OF
the vehicle as a result OF the impact;
the latter escaping with nothing more
serious than a few scratches. Mr.
Hyssong, however, did not get OF s.
easily and was for short time rem
dered unconscious by the fall.
He sustained an ugly cut over his
left eye. which was at first thought
had destroyed its sight, and a very
severe sprain to his right leg. besides
numerous bruises and contusions
about the head and chest. The injury
to his leg gave him great pain and II
was believed at the time of the acct
dent that the femur bone was broken,
but an examination by surgeon af-
ter his arrival at home failed to show
that any fracture had taken place.
The injured member has been placed
in a plaster cast and Is giving him
less annoyance today than at any time
since the trouble occurred. Mr.. Hys-
song was brought to Canon City We'd
nesday morning.

BEAUTIFUL FLOWER
FOR LAWN DECORATION

No more brilliant and attractive
grouping OF flowers can be seen in
Canon City and vicinity at present
than the saliva beds on the lawn in
front of the residence of Captain and
Mrs. B. F. Rockafellow. The saliva
is admirably adapted for park and
lawn decoration and nowhere has its
cultivation been more successfully. or
is the wealth of its scarlet bloom dis
played to better advantage than on
the Rockafellow premises. Scores of
people passing along West Main street
have had their attention drawn to its
beauty, have stopped to admire 1t and
have resolved to attempt its growth
next season.
Saliva is one Of the most beautiful
of out-of-door decorative plants and
may be easily grown in this latitude
by proper cares and cultivation. 1t is
one of the hardest of our ANIMALS
and blooms from about the first ot
until the first freeze; a light frost
such as We have had recently. having
no serious effects on either its bloom
or foliage. The plants may be grown
from seed sown in a window box in
February, provided the recepticle in
which they are planted is kept in a
warm, sunny place, and should be
transplanted to the garden when all
danger from frost in the spring is
over. The plants may be procured
from the florist in pots about the
first of May at a small cost II one
does not care to go to the trouble of
raising them for himself from the
seed. Saliva requires a deep. rich
soil and plenty OF water, but these
demands are not hard to comply with
II one is interested in Horticulture.
Beds OF SALIVA and other bright
hued flowers attract the attention OF
tourists and visitors to the city and
too many OF them cannot be planted
They imply an appreciation of beauty
on the part Of those who cultivate
them, and. so far as this community Is
concerned. proclaim Canon City and
its surroundings TO be capable of
growing the prettiest flowers. as well
as the best fruit. in all OF this west
ern country.

tire West to Canon City for the big
gest bronco busting. roping. steer
roping and riding. bull dogging and
all around series OF Western contests
that the state has ever seen. The
cattlemen will bring forth their own
big outlaws and will prime their best
riders for the event. and they Will
make 1, rough from the jump.
They are boosting their project
from the drop OF the hat and from all
appearances Il will be worth travel
ing down the gulch to see. They hg-
ure that most OF the big celebrations
will be over and that dozens OF the
big riders will be going through the
country on the way to their respective
ranches and winter homes and that
this celebration. coming as Il does. so
late In the year. will catch their eyes
ard bring them to Canon City.
Canterbury Is just one OF two dozen
or so who are planning to get in on
the big time. The cattlemen will have
a meeting at that time to discuss vari-
Gus subjects of Interest to their busi-
ness and they will have a stock and
horse exhibition that will put TO shame
most Affairs of the kind that have
ever been seen around here.
They are seeking to enlist the In
terest OF local cattlemen and bronco
busting enthusiasts. and II Is rumor-
ed that several Of the big boosters OF
this city will be asked to come down
and participate in the fun as officials

we confess that the misinformatlon

boundary is something awful. Huerta has
discovered that political parties are dlvld
ed IN the United States over the Mexican
situation. He appears TO labor uIulcr the
delusion that political division means
the same in the United States that 1t
dccs in Mexico: a delusion that may get
him into trouble some time. tie has also
discovered that the democrats are II
Power only temporarily. This seems to
Indicate that he believes that Wilson
and his cabinet may be turned out at a
moments notice. 1t sounds absurd, at
first to place that construction on what
he does say but if it does not mean that
it means that he is consoling himself
with The chance that the republicans may
come into power in about three and one
half years from now. 1T is hard to see
where the consolation cones III, since his

A POSSIBLE LEADER.

Is SenOr Urrutia, minister of the in
terror in Mexico, the coming patriot? If
We question our memories closely we
shall find that somehow or other most of
the strong talk which has come up to us
from Mexico City, lately, as emanating
from Huerta somehow is traccable to
the neighborhood of Urrutia. Statesmen
in Washington are beginning to believe
that the alleged demand for recognition
by midnight" was put in circulation by
Urrntia, who was expressing what he
hoped the cabinet and president would
say rather than what they did say. 1t
was Urrutia who gave ont the statement
that Lind would not be received unless
he brought credentials recognizing the
Huerta government. 1t is said that there
dissentiOns in Huerta's cabinet. 1t is
also limited that Huerta may resign III
favor of another member of the cabinet.
with q view to becoming candidate for
president. Perhaps this will be Urrutia's
chance to get in the spot light. His views
as indicated in the information he has
given out in the matter Of Lind'S mission
might endear him to the anti American
party-if there is an anti-Amcrican party
in Mexico. Let us keep an eye on Tr-
ruttia-provided Hucrta has not already
got an eye on him.
