TRAMPS TO BE THROWN
OFF ALL FREIGHTS

Up here on the narrow gage we
have little conception of the number
of floaters who beat their way along
main railroad thorofares on freights,
bind baggage, etc Salida and Grand
Junction are pestered with them,
sometimes SO to 100 such travellers a
day. These men are out Of work,
and large number do not want to
work, while in justice it should be
said that many are industrious and
honest if given a chance. 1t appears
that the policy Of the Rio Grande for
some time has been to overlook this
tramp question, letting them ride %
long as they kept decently out Of
sight. Now, however, stern edict has
gone forth to dump them upceremoni-
ously overheard. We do not envy the
lot Of the railroad men who draw the
chance of enforcing the order. Four
special officers have been employed
at Grand Junction to help carry out
the injunction.

mesa ia cNce'lcd in timber, grass and
other vegetation.
1t will be the final effort Of the
officials and railroad builders 10 make
the Rainbow Route the best road on
| the Western Slope. This is OF i'm
mcnge Importance to Gunnison cOun-

new settlers and others interested in
progressive communities to locate
and make their homes here as well
as place investment in Gunnison
county property. A greater popula.
tion Is needed in this county.
If one wishes to take n short trip
by automobile from points in Gunni'
son county, no better route could be
mapped out than to make this circle
trip over the Blue mesa to the North
Fork and uncompahgre valleys, re-
turning over the Black mesa route.
The roads are in as good a condi-
ton as of any other state highway,
with the possible exception of about
three miles near Sapinero, where
the road crews are now working. This
however, causes but slight inconveni-
ence to the motorist.

GIRLS HELD CAPTIVE
Are Forced Into Woods by Man at Point of Pistol-ISrothcr of One iS Shot by AsSailant.

Niagara Falls, N. r., Nov. 19.- Agnes Lawson, 1 i years old, and Nel- lie Aneck, 12 years old, school girls of St. Davids, Ont, were dragged in to a wood and held prisoners for hours by an unidentified man, armed with revolver, and Raymond Law son, s years old, brother of one of the girls, was shot through the right thigh by their assailant when he at tempted to defend his sister early last evening, it became known here to- day.
 The girls are in a critical condition at their homes, while Lawson is in the general hospital in St. Catherines. Police and armed posses of farmers and citizens of the Canadian border towns are searching the countryside for the unidentified assailant.
 The girls story is that the man ac- costed them when they were on their way home from school and compelled them at the point of the revolver, to go into the woods. He kept them there for several hours and then ac- companicd them to within 300 yards of the Lawson girls home. The brother and a cxppanion started out in search of the man when they heard his sisters story
 They met a stranger a short dis tanCe from the Lawson house, who asked them for a match. Lawson in- quired of the stranger if he had seen q man with two girls, and the strang- CT said that he had taken two girls home. Lawson and his companion attacked the man, who fired at them, the bullet entering Lawson's thigh. He succeeded in fighting Lawson and his companion off and made his es- cape.
