give her friends when the announce

before the train came in from the
west. however. a delegation of her
young women associates appeared up
on the scene and soon discovered her
presence. OF course she had no idea
what brought them there. but they
soon let her know. The secret was
ont and they had jolly time until
the train drew up at the railroad
platform. The visitors gave her a
happy send-off and wished her bon
voyage.
Mr.. and Mrs. Taylor accompanied
Miss Watcher as far as Pueblo where
they assisted her aboard the Santa Fe

THE CANON
GROCERY'S
WAREHOUSE
is BURNED

The warehouse of the Canon Gro
Gerry company at Eleventh and Water
streets with its contents was damaged
by fire about l O'Clock Sunday morn
ing, entailing considerable loss. An
alarm was turned in to which the fire
department made prompt response
and managed to get the flames under
control before the building was des-
troyed There was about car load
and half of baled hay and lot of
rock salt stored in the building and
until it can be ascertained how badly
il was damaged the loss from the fire
cannot very well be estimated.
The origin of the fire is unknown,
but is believed to have been caused
either from the sparks of a passing
railroad locomotive. or by tramps. In
view of the fact that the fire seems
to have started on the inside of the
building the latter theory appears
most tenable. There was no insurance
on the property.
