An UNEXPECTED RE-
UNION OF OLD FRIENDS

Mr.. and Mrs. A. R. Frisbie motor
ed to Westciffe last Sunday and
while there had the unexpected plea
sure of meeting a number of friends
whom they had not seen for many
years. On making the run up to the
old town. as Silver Cliff is sometimes
called, they noticed that somebody
was living In the house formerly oc-
cupied by Congressman Hosea Town
send and family. 1t being place
where he had spent many pleasant
days in years gone by. Mr.. Frisbie
got out of his automobile and went to
the house to inquire who the ten
ants were and was informed that Mr..
and Mrs. Eichorn Of New Mexico were
spending a part of the summer there.
A little further questioning revealed
the fact that the lady to whom Mr..
Frisbie had addressed himself was
Mrs. Eichorn. the daughter of Con-
gressman Townsend. and that they
were old friends, although they had
not seen each other for many years.
Mrs. Eichorn informed Mr.. Frisbie
that Mr.. and Mrs. John r. Smith of
Denver and L. F. Cornwell of Pueblo,
all old-time ersidents Of Silver Cliff,
were in town. Delighted with the
opportunity of renewing associations
with these people, who were also old
friends. Mr.. Frisbie drove back to
Westcliffe ad see them and found
their company SO agreeable that II
was decided to have an informal re-
union and dinner at the Scheibe
House. Mrs. Eichorn was invited to
join the party and most delightful
social gathering at the hotel was the
result.
All of the party were residents oi
Silver Cliff in 1879 when the town was
bustling frontier mining city with
population second only to Denver
and Pueblo In the state.
John r. Smith is now a prominent
corporation lawyer in Denver and Mr
cornwell is jeweler in Pueblo.
Barnes Townsend. son of Congress-
man Townsend. who will be remem-
bered by a number of Canon City
people, has made a dislint success Of
journalism within recent years and il

newspapers OF the City Of Brotherly

CAMPING GROUNDS ARE
IN BAD CONDITION.

Our attention has been called to
The fact that the camping grounds
for auto parties at the Hot Springs
hotel are in a woefuliy bad condition.
The weeds have attained a great
height and should be taken out i'm
mediately. There is also a scarcity
of fire wood and all auto parties are
forced to take their own wood with
them.
When these grounds are in good
condition they are the prettiest In
the state, but as they are now they
could only be classed as an eyesore
II is hoped that some organization in
the city will take this matter up and
again put the grounds on their old
stand as the prettiest around the
town.

MRS. {. 0. RAIDER, PlO-
NEER, DlEO ON SUNDAY

Mrs. E. D. RAIDER one of the pioneers
of Fremont county, died at the room
ing apartments kept by her daughter,
Mrs. Emma Riede, 412k Main Street,
at o'cock Sunday evening from the
infirmities of old age. Mrs. RAIDER
had suffered no special illness and
passed into that sleep that knows no
waking from physical exhaustion, al
though a semi-invaiid during the last
six and a half years of her life in con-
sequence of fall in January, 1909,
that resulted in the disolcation of her
hip. At no time during the period of
her physical feebleness did her ap-
petite forsake her, or was she unable
to sleep soundly at night.
Mrs. RAIDER was born in Knoxville,
Tennessee, October 2Sth. 1886 and
spent her girlhood days in that city.
In 1858 she was married to Jesse
RAIDER and moved with her husband
to Missouri the same year and settled
at Harrisonville in Cass county. The
trip was made by wagon and was a
somewhat slow and tedious one owing
to the lack of anything like good pub
lie roads in that early day, particu-
larly in the territory traversed by
them west of the Mississippi river.
Mr.. and Mrs. RAIDER and family left
Missouri for Colorado by OK team in
the summer of 1865; reaching Canon
City on October 11th of that year.
They came by prairie scohoner,"
which was about the only means of
travel across the plains at that time.
On arriving here Mr.. and Mrs. Ra-
der established a home on Four Mile
creek and engaged in ranching. They
were successful in their undertaking
and were widely known among the
people of that day for their hospital
ity. Mr.. RAIDER died shortly after
coming to this county. but the family
home was maintained on Four Mile
for twenty-seven years, when its mem
bers removed to Canon City.
Mr.. and Mrs. RAIDER were the par
ents OF ten children, six of whom liv-
ed to be grown. Those reaching ma
turity were Mrs. L. w. Gardner and
Mrs. Emma Riede of Canon City;
Mrs. Perry Back of Portland, Oregon;
C. V. RAIDER of Cripple Creek; Mrs.
Stump of Four Mile, and L. F. RAIDER
of Colorado Springs. There are nine
teen grandchildren and six great
grandchildren.
Mrs. RAIDER was charter member
of the Cumberland Presbyterian
church here and attended its services
as long as it continued in existence
She was woman Of the most gener-
GUS and hospitable instincts and was
admired and loved by those who knew
her best. She did a great deal Of char
liable work and many unfortunate
people have occasion to remember
with gratitude her kindness to them.
The funeral will take place from Will
sons undertaking chapel at 2:30
O'Clock Tuesday afternoon and will
be conducted by Rev. Geo. F. Sewer.
The remains will be laid to rest be-
side the grave of her husband in
Greenwood cemetery. Friends of
the family are invited to the obse-
quies.

a FINE FISHING TRIP
ON THE WESTERN SLOPE

County Assessor H. ]. Craig and
Frank Emmerson returned to Canon
City on an early train this morning
from an unusually successful and en-
joyable fishing outing on the upper
reaches of the Rio Grande river in
Hinsdale county, some forty miles
southwest of Creede. They made the
trip from Cotopaxi by automobile in
company with Frank Lamb and Ralph
Beach, the distance travelled by motor
being in excess of 200 miles each way
They were encamped at Wills
than half that time was. devoted to
fishing. the remainder being given
over to rest and enjoyment of the
mountain scenery, which is exception
ally rugged and inspiring In that sec
tion of the country. At the end of
three days work with the, rod and
reel they literally had trout to burn"
and having no desire to be included
in that unsportsman class of anglers
known as FISH hogs. came home to
distributed their catch among their
friends.
They were encamped ON Wills
brothers ranch on Crooked creek at
an elevation of 10000 feet and they
are profuse in their praise of the hos
pitalities extended to them by the
proprietors of the place and the mem
bers of their families. The ranch is
owned by Shirley and Frank Wills
OF Del Norte and consists of a large
body of excellent grazing land, ad-
mirably adapted to cattle raising. The
Wills brothers and their families live
on the ranch during the summer, but
in the winter make their home at Del
Norte. They had as their guest on
the ranch during a part Of the sum-
mer Quintin Roosevelt. son of the ex-
president. who hugely enjoyed during
his stay there and the splendid fishing
and hunting afforded by the almost
virgin territory in that portion of
the state.
AS showing the, excellent character
of sport to be had by anglers in the
streams Of the more remote parts of
Hinsdale county Messrs. Craig and
Emmerson recite the success Of them
selves and their companions and say
that in less than three hours actual
time last Tuesday morning their par
ty. consisting Of six men, caught 317
trout, all of them Of large size. They
were all Of the rainbow and native
varieties with the former predomin-
ating. The largest nah they caught
weighed three and half pounds, the
average being about eight ounces. Va
rious outings of the kind on the Gun
nison river have convinced Messrs.
Craig and Emmerson that good as trout
fishing is there under favorable con-
ditions 1t is not to be compared in
the same breath with the same kind
of sport in the wilds Of Hinsdale
county.

MEETING HELD WITHOUT THEM

The special train carrying the east
ern speakers and delegates to the In
ternational Purity congress at San
Francisco. which was expected to ar
rive in Canon City Wednesday even
ing time to permit the excursionisV
to participate in big union service
at the First Methodist church, failed
for some unknown reason to get here
and the meeting was held without
them. -
Some correspondence had taken
taken place between Rev. Geo. F. Sc
yler. president OF the Canon City Min
isterial association. and DR.. Stead
well. president OF the National Purity
federation. in relation to having the
delegates to the San Francisco con-
vention stop on here while on thof
way to California and union meet
ing was arranged to be held at the
Methodist church in their honor. Be-
yond the fact that the train carrying
the delegates started from chicsoo
last Monday morning nothing further
was heard OF the matter and a large
congregation assembled at the
church &c give greeting to the visitors
All Of the special trains passing thru
Canon City during theafternoon were
met at the station by Rev. Sewer arg
others. but the expected delegates did
not arrive. nor was any message re-
ceived from them.
The visitors we're confidently looked
for until s:i5 o'clock. when all hope
OF their coming was abandoned and,
the meeting was addressed by Rev.
F. H. Essert OF University Park. Colo
RADIO. one Of the national lecturers Of
the Purity fedention. who happened
to be here on his way to the PaciSb'
coast. Rev. Essert. quite a. much as
Rev. Sewer and others. was In the
dark as to the reason why the dele
gates were unable TO get here. but ex-
pressed the belief that the train d D
which they were travelling had been
unavoidably delayed at some point
east OF here.

itors from Canada. England and the
eastern states. who were yo haup

Essert spoke on the social purity
movemen6 dealing with the white
slave traffic, the rum business and
the various forms OF vice and n,
iquIty menacing the well being ~
society. His address was a strong
one and pointed out in an unmIstaks
able way the inroads being made on
the life of the nation by that great
curse of mankind, the social evil.

EARLY MARRIAGES.

Some time ago, Professor Roswell
H. Johnson PUBLISHED in The Journal
of Heredity, plea for early mar
riages, particularly by those OF unus-
ual ability. 1--WE must have our sill
perior men marrying earlier" he
said, "even at the cost of their early
efficiency
Doctor Johnson said also that we
must cease prolonging the education
al period past the early twenties, and
he insisted that our practice of delay
ing marriages by extending educa-
ton into postgraduate courses can
not go on without serious loss to the
race"
Casper L. Rerfield of Chicago, who
is a student of this subject, took is
sue with Professor Johnson. He put
up a reward for the discovery of a
superior individual produced as a
result of early mating by his proge-
nitors, and advised other students TO
get busy with the history of notable
personages in order to earn it. The
time given in which to find the case
recently expired, and the reward had
not been claimed.
Thus are the statutes against ear
ly marriages indicated. And thus
| is removed from ambitious students
the feeling that by delaying mar
riage until after the educational per-
iod they are cheating their children
and the race.
There will always be folks who
want to marry early. There will
always be others who want to marry
later in life. The former have Pro-
lessor Johnson to lean on. The lat
ter have champion in Mr.. Rerfield
backed by Mr.. Redfield's cash.
Which, considered by and large
is a very satisfactory arrangement
indeed. Marriage being a wholly
meritorious institution, can't have
any too much encouragement, es
pecially when the divorce courts are
so busy undermining it.

Fourteen Foot Black Snake.

This snake story is from the
Pleasant Ridge correspondence OF
the McGregor Times: Little Arthur
Hallberg was picking gooseberries
the other day when he discovered
something curled up in ball, think
ing it a woodchuck. The dog kept
close watch while he ran home to
get his two brothers, and they re-
turned with a rifle. The first they
knew of what it really was, was
when it sprang into the air, and
then they discovered it was huge
black snake. They ran home after
their father to bring the shot gun,
with which he killed it. The snake
measured IA feet in length, and )
inches in diameter.
