ASKS FOR PICTURES

A few days ago Secretary Canady of
the Business Mems league received a
request from Rev. G. NJ. Shott OF
Urbana, Ill, asking for pictures from
which he can make lantern slides to be
used in lectures. 1t is understood from
his request that at the end of his Sur
day evening services he gives a free
lecture to the people on various sec.
tions Of the country. A bunch of thir-
ty-six of our finest views were sent to
him and another request has come from
the same source asking to be placed On
the regular mailing list. He. spoke
highly of the pictures sent him aud
promises to give wide use to them.
This opens another avenue througa
which advertising may be secured and
in one Of the best sections of Illinois.
The close proximity of Urbana to
Champaign, the seat of the Illinol.
university, proves the value of such
lectures in that section of the state.
Secretary Canady announces that
many people in the country have the
postcard reflectors and use them in the
ordinary postcard reflected on a screen.
He has been furnishing such cards to
. number Of these users for two years.
He is now preparing short descripti>e 4
lectures to send with the postcards
when they are mailed to these postcard
reflector owners.

Little Girl While on Way to
School is Drowned in the
Roaring Fork River
WAS WELL KNOWN HERE

Little Vida Dobson, youngest daugh-
ter of Mrs. William Dobson, is no more,
and heavy are the hearts of the family
left behind for the sweet faced, sunny
child that in terror and alone entered
the vale of the great beyond.
The particulars Of the affair are not
fully known yet, but on Thursday little
Vida went from the ranch to school
near Basalt as usual and decided to 60
into Basalt for the mail She had to
cross a narrow foot bridge over the
Roaring Fork river and must have in
some way fallen from the bridge. No
doubt there was a moment of horror
as the little body plunged into the
cruel waters that were to carry her
under and away, for the little form,
cold in death, was taken from the river
twelve miles below, near Carbondale.
Word was at once sent the mother and
to Mrs. George Broughton, living here.
The sorrowing mother, four sisters and
brother are left to mourn the little
twelve-year-old Vida.
Mrs. George Broughton Of Glenwood
has already gone to the ranch and Mrs.
Zelmer Cantrell of Marshalltown, Iowa,
Miss Bessie Dobson, who is at present
living with Mrs. Cantrell and attending
school in Marshalltown, Miss Vera and
q brother, lloyd, who are near Stesm-
boat Springs, are all hurEying homo to
join the, mother and pay the last loving.

and people of the city for small con.
veat;ors, Strawberry Day and other
affairs which may come this summer.
A ghost of the past appeared in the
shape of claim against the city by a
firm which claims the city owes for
some fine bug eradicator which was
purchased by former council to re-
move certain Inhabitants of the city
Jail. This claim has been turned dow1
by the former council as well as this
one, but it will probably bob up again
serenely in the future.
Two bids were filed with the board
for the construction of the so-called
Lincoln and Minter avenue sewers. One
was from M. J. Mccarthy for $1,192
and the other from H. B. Ikeler for the
sum of $1,24O. The contract was
awarded to Mccarthy with the pro-
viso that he clean up the rubbish left
from the Pitkin avenue sewer.
Sidewalks came in for few minutes
and Chairman Oldenburg of the street
and alley committee recommended that
the board revoke its order tn certain
property owners to put in walls. This
brought objections from Others and 40
action looking toward revokng the or
der was taken. A number of other lots
in the city will probably be included
in forthcoming list.
The usual grist of claims against the
city were allowed and the warrants
ordered issued, and the board recessed
to meet again Tuesday evening of the
coming week when Mayor Thorson will
probably have returned to the city
from the eastern slope.

Will Broughtou, chief Of the fire de-
partment, was coming down the street,
and, hearing the unusual noise, stopped
to listen. Just then the bandit rushe ]
around the corner from Cooper avenue
and seeing Broughton told him to sect
down that alley and be quick about it. y
Broughton was "quick." Fire calls
were easy compared to the double
double quick action he got down that
alley. Marshal Rohr, Night Chief Ma
honey and others chased the bandit up
the river toward the D. & R. G. tunnel
and finally lost the trail in the dark
ness.

A few weeks ago the state papers
were carrying stories to the effect that
the national government would plant
some fourteen to fifteen million trout

CITY COUNCIL

That the members of the board of

who presided in the big chair at the
session Monday evening Of this week,
know more about fire trucks than they
believed anyone could know was evi.
dent after some half dozen representa-

enlightened them on the merits Of their
respective products.
The fire boys were on hand in full
force and presented a petition to the
board asking that fire apparatus be pur
chased which should mot cost to exceed
$500. This petition was signed by q
large number Of taxpayers Of the city
and certainly expressed their views or
the necessity of better equipment fol
