]. H. Maupin. was found dead in his
stall at the Eclipse Livery stable,
corner of Fourth street and Macon
avenue. wednesday morning. where
he had long been "the star boarder."
He was twenty-one years old and his
death was. probably. due to the
rupturing of blood vessel as the re
suit of too violent play in the livery
stable lot the previous evening.
Hugh X" was a native OF "Oid
Kentucky" and was a descendant OF
one of the most aristocratic equine
families in the Blue Grass state He
was foaled June 9th. 1896 and was
raised by Ray & Kirby OF Bowling
Green. He was sired by "Redfern.'
one of the most noted standardized
stations Of Kentucky. He was ship
ped to Colorado when FIVE years old
and was purchased in Denver by Mrs.
Maupin May End. 1901 for three hun
dred and fifty dollars: remarkably
low price for so fine an animal. At
the same time and from the same
owner ID. Z. Gibson bought a match
ed team OF horses for which he paid
one thousand dollars.
The death of Hugh X" took place
on the sixteenth anniversary of the
day Mrs. Maupin purchased him. He
was one OF the most beautiful and
stylish horses ever seen in Fremont

comment from people on the streets.
Hugh X" never missed meal dur
ing all of the sixteen years of his

OLD F. & C. C. GRADE TO
BECOME PUBLIC ROAD

The utilization of the old Florence
& Cripple Creek railroad grade as 4
public highway between the Arkan-
sas valley and Teller county was an
nounced at Colorado Springs a few
days ago by l.. f. Curtis of the state
highway commission. AS the result
OF a conference between the county
commissioners OF Teller and Fremont
counties at Colorado Springs on Mon
day of this week. according to Mr..
Curtis. an agreement was reached 20
protect the bridges and fills against
damage this year. In 1918 the state
highway commission expects to have
enough funds at its command TO con-
vert il into a first class automobile
roadway. Only enough work will be
done this spring and summer to
prevent any decline in the physical
condition Of the roadbed. In the
course of a newspaper interview on
the subject given by Mr.. Curtis at
Colorado Springs he said:
mot only will the Cripple Creek
district have the advantage OF tho
agricultural resources Of Canon CITY
and vicinity and a consequent bene-
fit to Fremont county's farms and
truck gardens, but 1t will be another
splendid drive to add to the list Of
auto trips available from Colorado
Springs. consider It an important
road development for this part OF the
state"

WILSON FIXES
PRICES I OF COAL
Every Mine in Country Affected by
Presidents 0rder-Dealers'
Turn Is Next.

Washington, Aug. 22. Bitumi-
nous coal prices were fixed by
President Wilson last night for ev-
cry mine in the United States. The
next step in coal control. White
House announcement said, will be
to fix the prices to be charged by
middlcmcn and retailers.
Prices were set on cost of produc-
ton estimates furnished by the fed
eral trade commission after months
of exhaustive investigation The
country is divided into 20 districts
and every producer in district will
market his output at the same
price.
The president is expected to dp-
pointed soon coal administrator,
who will be given entire control Of
the coal industry. RumOr last night
named President II. A. Garfield of
Williams College as the man. Mr..
Garfield now heads a committee ap-
pointed by the president to fix a
government price for wheat, The
wheat committee probably will be
dissolved Sept, 1.
The prices announced for run Of
mine coal in the large producing
districts average slightly more than
I$2. In a few districts they are be-
low that figure and in western ter
ritory they are higher. Washing.
ton state is highest with $3.25,
The presidents statement said
"The following scale of prices is
prescribed for bitumiuous coal a.

| ducing districts 1t is provisional

Ieauitable control of the distribution
of the supply and of the prices no
only at the mines, but also in tht
hands of the middlemen and the re
tailers.
"The prices Professionally fiEe'
here are fixed by me under the pro
visions of the recent act of con
gress regarding administering thu
food supply of the country, whicl
also conferred upon the executive

While | am not advised as to the
exact nature of the work to be un-
dertaken by the Food Congress, pre-
sumption is that discussions will be
values, price control, production
plans for next year, the food prob
lens of neutral nations, and the
food problems of the nations with
which the United States is now al
lied in the great World-war. Each
state has, | am advised, been asked
to send three delegates, which in
dicates that the total membership
of the Congress Will be 144. Be
tween now and Sept. 14-thc date
of meeting delegates Will
give careful study to all subjects
touching upon food production and
distribution. They will, when the
convention meets, have the advaut-
age of information to be supplied
by experts from the department Of
agriculture and other government
agencies in possession of statistics.
An effort will be made to arrive at
some practical and intelligent con
clusi0n, and recommendation along
these lines will be made. OF course,
| have not yet had the opportunity
of conferring with either Mr.. iIeis-
kell or Mr. Rogers, the other two
committeeman who are to represent
Arkansas. We will, Of course, be
most thinkers on matters Of this
nature. It is but natural that men
from widely separated sections of
the country viii have different
views. Local conditions often de
yelop business and commercial
phases that are peculiar to par
ticular territory. These conditions
may not have been observed by peo-
pie in other parts of the country. a
coming together of representative
men of the various states will, in
all probability, constitute Il clear
ing house for these various ideas,
and it is hoped that something Of
lasting value to the public may re
suit from the meeting
Mr.. Bcrtig will perhaps arrange
to so to Philadelphia in company
with Messr8. Ueiskel and Rogers a
few days prior to the date announc-
ed for the meeting of the Congress

B0CHE REPAYING KINDNESS

Paris, July 20.-(By Mail. -
French kindness to a German pris-
oner AZ years ago is bearing fruit
today. Early in the war of 1870
French troops took yonug Ger
man officer prisoner and put him
in q prison camp for the duration of
the war. During the long, weary
months of waiting for peace the Of
ficer and his companions were given
every latitude of privilege that a
war prisoner could ask.
Today Marcel Richard a young
French officer and his compatriots
in the German prison camp at Mas-
ter are reaping the benefit. Tho
German officer prisoner of 1870.
now too old for active military
service, is commandant of the pris-
on camp. Young Richard has written
home to his folks in Paris for his
tennis fannels and shoes, telling
them why he is able to enjoy this
recreation.
The commandant is not only al
lowing his charges every possible
freedom, but has purchased the ten
mis- outfit-net, racquets, balls, etc,
from his own pocket
