change in the weather from Thursday

with full coal bins congratulated them
selves on their wisdom in laying in a
supply of fuel before the cold wave
came. Few people had anticipated the
snowstorm of Thursday evening. which
continued with great fury for a cou-
pie OF hours. Had the precipitation
lasted throughout the night at the

a couple OF feet OF snow on the ground

A GOOD DEAL OF TRAVEL

That a great many commercial aud
other visitors include Canon City in
their itinerary Of travel through the
safe is evidenced by an inspection of
the hotel registers from day to day
and the number OF strangers one
meets on the public streets. Although
railroad travel was rather slack dur
ing the mont hof January it has been
increasing for the last two or three
weeks and there are now more people
on the road than has been the case
Tor long time. There can hardly be
a be tier criterion Of general business
conditions throughout the country than
that furnished by the number COM
mercial men on tho road. Canon
City is one OF the best business towns
on the line of the Denver &c Rio Grandc
and the number of the knights OF the
road" that stop off here affords a
pretty good thermometer Of the con
di,on of trade.
