TWENTIETH YEAR
Fund But Do Not Refund
A week from noxt Tuesday evening
or May 6th at eight oclock a mooting
of the members of the auditorium asso
ciation will bo held in tho oflice of C
II Meeker All societies or individuals
who have paid in any money are invited
to be represented or to be present in
person
The object of this meeting will bo to
take action about tho disposition of tho
funds which have been created for the
purpose of erecting an auditorium
There are two courses to bo pursued in
the matter One is to refund tho
money and the other is to fund tho samo
that is to have all the money already
paid in placed ina fund on interest
The Tribune believes the latter course
should bo followed and that the refund
ing of the money secured for the purpose
would bo unwise
The need of an auditorium is just as
urgent now as it was when the last
movement was inaugurated and The
Tribune does not believo that the pro
ject should be abandoned Quito a
number of hundred dollars in cash have
already been paid in or raised It should
bo promptly insisted that every dollar
be paid into the auditorium treasurer
who should be instructed to take a cer
tificate of deposit for tho total amouutj
m tno name oi tno auuiioriuni associa
tion at the prevailing rate paid by the
banks for funds on deposit This
fund should bo increased from time
to time by entertainment for this public
purpose Soon a very considerable sum
of cash would bo available and some
favorable season or opportune time by
public subscriptions subscriptions of
stock etc sufficient money can be secured
tobuildMcCookan adequate auditorium
The Tribune favors an auditorium
campaign involving enlistment until tho
end of the war until tho money to com
plete tho building has been secured If
it cannot bo done in one year and wo
are of the opinion such a course involves
too heavy a financial drain let a num
ber of years be devoted to the laudable
purpose
Hence dont refund money already
raised but by all means fund it and add
to the same as largely as possible yet
this year
112 Miles in 120 Minutes Up Grade
Since Engineer OConnell made his
fast run from Eckley to Wray last
March the engineers of the Burlington
road have been after his scalp and this
morning he lost it It was raised by
Engineer F W Bosworth who rolled
into the union depot with second section
No 3 with a grin on his face a yard
wide
Bosworth held the throttle on freight
engine No 279 while Tom T Bosworth
a freight conductor gave him the high
ball at Akron 112 miles away The reg
ular leaving time at Akron is 350 a m
arriving in Denver at 7 a m This
morning they left Akron at 335 and ar
rived at 735 just one hour and ten
minutes late out of Akron and thirty
five minutes late into Denver
The run was made in exactly 120 min
utes two minutes faster than the famous
run of the Mahan special some years ago
The fastest time was made between
Fort Morgan and Corona 147 miles in
thirteen minutes The track is up grade
all the way from Akron until near Den
ver and when the fact is taken into con
sideration that trains slow down within
tho city limits the run is the most re
markable on record
I didnt know whether it was in the
279 or not said Engineer Bosworth as
he leaned out of the cab window smiling
broadly and receiving the congratula
tions of a host of railroad men but I
put the screws to her and she answered
like a thoroughbred The conditions
from Akron in are not favorable for a
fast run as there are some pretty heavy
grades but the old girl walked up
them like a swallow If I hadnt had to
slow down coming into the yards Ill bet
a months salary it would have been 112
miles in 112 minutes As it is I am sat
isfied and I reckon everyone concerned
will be
The train was made up of engine No
279 a freight chair and Pullman car
