St. Benedict's Mission Society's Grand Ball Bourner's Hall Admission 25c Nov. 15th FRANKLIN'S PAPER THE STATESMAN CHORAL CLUB'S HALLOWE'EN NINETEENTH YEAR CHORAL C HA Never in the history of the society has such a time of fun been experienced. With all the female members dressing in short white costumes, with flowing hair down their backs, with all their faces nicely and artistically powdered, with such a delicate time of paint upon their cheeks as to make each appear a veritable queen, with lively and mischief-making music going, with guests trying to put 12 large potatoes in a pan with a wee teaspoon in one minute (which act caused many to fudge); with a blindfolded man knocking down a large bag of Virginia peanuts to give the one getting the most peanuts a valuable prize; with a "real live devil" possessing cloven feet and box ankles and three spooks doing their ghostly stunts, which would cause the flesh to crawl on your bone; with all attempting to guess correctly the names of 20 different kinds of trees put in extremely funny questions; with some trying to locate the donkey with a ribbon and others endeavoring to hold a peanut on their noses one minute without either grinning or laughing; some trying to guess the exact number of grains of corn in a bottle, while still others were racing in a popcorn contest to become the swellest in the crowd; with all this class of amusement upon such an occasion made the event in word, act and deed, a real lively fun session. Did you ever see a cabbage with swelled head decorated with apples and red cabbages in background, or beets and carrots completely surrounding the yellow-faced pumpkins with goo-goo eyes, turnips with dreamy eyes and mammoth potatoes DENVER, COLORADO, FRIDAY NOVEMBER 8, 1907 with no eyes at all? And the large-grained corn with but one ear; apples, oranges, lemons, nuts, together with having the popcorn running in lines from all sections and cross sections of the house and there in turn divided with evenly blended yellow to and radiated from a single spot? If you have, then you would have some idea of that view. Then pretty faces, ugly faces, false faces and ghostly faces met you on nearly every turn; now and then the room darkened, ghosts dance, displaying and betraying the different denominations by the extreme smallness of their feet and the bonfire in the street which lit up the heavens for blocks around and intensifying those ghostly apparitions that delighted in entertaining the goddess of Terpischore by the light of the flickering flames, would cause you to imagine your immediate surroundings. The fine gallon barrel of cider, free to all who desired to drink and as often and as long as the desire lasted, sang a wonderful solo upon the program of refreshments; the deep basso profundo of the doughnuts, aided by the staccato touch of the nuts, seemed not to be in exact harmony in the commingling of their voices. But at 1 a. m., when that pumpkin pie with cream top, the last to perform upon the program, without previous notice to anyone, spontaneously sang its "aria," "You'll Need the Doctors Before Day," all the pumpkins, some one-eyed, some double-jointed, some with teetn and some toothless, and cabbage, red and white-faced; carrots, white-rib- Continued on page 9 COLORED ELKS WIN IN SUIT A verdict of $500 in favor of the plaintiff was returned yesterday afternoon in the colored Elks' case of H.

Sawyer presiding. false arrest, alleging that he had suffered a nervous shock and great humiliation by reason of charges made against him by Dr. Decker because he wore an Elk emblem. Former Judge John D. Lynn appeared for the defendant and Geo. B. Draper and Hugh O'Brien for the plaintiff. Following the verdict, Judge Lynn moved for a stay of proceedings of 60 days in entering judgment on the ground that he wished to argue a motion for a new trial. Justice Sawyer asked Mr. Draper if there was any question as to the responsibility of the defendant and granted a stay of 30 days. Rochester Lodge of Elks is behind Dr. Decker in the action and will carry the case to the highest courts if necessary. TWENTIETH ANNIVERSARY. The elite of the older citizen of this city and all the society folk called at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Clarence Holmes Monday night, the occasion being the reception in honor of their twentieth anniversary of marriage. The host and hostess were assisted by Mesdames Contee, McCracken, Dishman and Watkins in caring for their guests, who thronged the parlors throughout the evening. Beautiful women, handsome men, pretty decorations and ravishing music, to say nothing of a delightful buffet luncheon FIVE CENTS A COPY ELKS N IN SUIT where such events are of the best. Nature has dealt kindly with Mr. and Mrs. Holmes, giving them all the vigor that was theirs at any time in life, together with a fair share of this world's goods and best of all the friendship and best wishes of their associates. This last was shown on this occasion by a shower of gifts. Art china of the rarest and most expensive kind, beautiful designs of every kind were given to grace their home. A costly set of gold decorated plates was the gift of the Bon Vivant Club, of which he is a member. Rev. Ward performed the marriage ceremony of Mrs. Hattie Hand and T. S. Rector Tuesday evening at 6 o'clock at the parsonage. The marriage is a surprise in that no announcement was made of it even to the close friends. Mr. Rector owns his own home on Stout street and has ever comfort for his bride. She is a niece of Edward Banks and although her residence here has been short she has many friends who wish her well. The long residence and high standing of the bridegroom makes his happiness of concern to many, especially in fraternal and church circles. During the whole of Mr. Rector's 16 years' residence here he has been in the employ of John D. Ross, cigar merchant, with whom he is a clerk. With the assistance of Chief of Police Delaney Mr. Ross contrived to pull off a surprise on Mr. Rector in return for the one he gave in his marriage. Many of the prominent men in business near the Tramway loop were parties to the fun, which ended up as all good things do. Mr. and Mrs. Rector are at home at 2431 Stout street. --- THE STATESMAN.

"What shall it be, O illustrious one?" asked the Roman senator. "Well, I think I'll found a naval academy. Then I can get some variety in the torture line." And with the authority of an emperor Nero began appointing cadets from the young men of the empire who were noted for their cruelty. THE STANDARD TRUST DENVER, COLORADO, J. R.

Young Harwood's Cousin Evelyn had invited him down to her country place to stop over the holidays. He arrived just before dinner, to find that he had left his golf clubs behind him. It was most exasperating; but his cousin comforted him somewhat by promptly offering the use of her clubs. The next day he started early for the links with Evelyn's husband, but in an hour he was back again. "Were the clubs so bad?" she inquired; "couldn't you finish the game?" He answered shortly that he had not cared to finish the game—of course there was nothing the matter with the clubs. When Evelyn's husband came home for luncheon at noon she questioned him. "What's wrong with Bob, Henry?" she asked; "didn't the game go smoothly?" Her husband chuckled. "It was your clubs," he explained. "I don't wonder he isn't happy. He was preparing to 'tee off' at the hole in front of the clubhouse, with a lot of girls on the veranda watching him. He picked up your bag of clubs to take out the 'driver,' but it was caught in some way, and he turned the bag upside down to shake it loose. The driver tumbled out then, and with it came your false fringe, your powder puff, your green veil, and that little ivory handglass you carry around. Do you wonder his feelings are somewhat bruised?"--Harper's Hagazine. STORY OF FAMOUS HYMN. "All Glory, Laud and Honour" Written in a Prison. A popular hymn is Theodulph's "All glory, laud and honour," belonging to the ninth century, and said to have been written by the poet while in Angers prison. The author of "Hymns and Their Makers" quotes a legend in relation to its use on Palm Sunday, 821, to the effect that when Louis the Pious, king of France, was at Angers, he took part in the usual procession of laity and clergy, and as the procession passed the place where St. Theodulph, the bishop of Orleans, had long been incarcerated he was seen standing at the open window of his cell, and there, amid the silence of the people, he sang his hymn, to the delight of the king, who at once ordered him to be set at liberty and restored to his see. In some minor details this legend is referred to by other writers as well. The original is too long to be sung in modern services, as it has no fewer than 78 lines. The verses usually found in our hymnals are but a fragment of the original hymn, which, with more or less abbreviation, has been used as a processional for many centuries—The Quiver.

I am told that a £10 note will buy a man's life in London, that any unsuspicious person can fall into the Thames on a dark night, or break his neck going round a slippery, dark corner, or fall under a van, if a little bit of crisp paper changes hands, says the London Sketch. I know that a very distinguished playwright, wishing to work out the plot of a melodrama went into a high-class den of thieves, made friends with some of the leaders, and unfolded to them as something he wished to put into execution the plan he had devised for his villain's action. He told his listeners that there was a very important financier he wanted out of the way for 48 hours while he played the very dickens with the exchange with the stocks the financier controlled. He suggested to his listeners that an attractive lady and a yacht would be the simplest means of insuring this object. His hearers concurred. They knew the very yacht for the purpose; a skipper and a crew could easily be produced; and concerning the lady there would be no difficulty whatever. "Then after the 48 hours, we will of course, bring him back," said the dramatist brightly, thinking of his fourth act. A cloud came over the faces of his audience. "Well, guv'ner, of course if you wish it; but it would save such a lot of questions being asked if he just went quietly overboard," the spokesman suggested. Growing Old It is ten p.m. They are seated in the parlor. "No," she says, bowing her head: "Pa says I am too young to become engaged." It is just 1:30 a.m. They are still seated in the parlor. Suddenly, from somewhere upstairs, a gruff voice shouts. "Henrietta, if that fellow waits a little longer you'll be old enough to accept his proposal!"—Woman's Home Companion. Latson on Walking. Dr. Latson says: "A correct walk is the rarest accomplishment I can think of. Handsome faces are rarest, good figures are much more rare; but as to gait and carriage, out of 500 we shall find 30 or 40 handsome faces and perhaps a dozen good figures. But certainly in that number we shall rarely find more than one or two people who walk properly." Where Beggars Ride. "If wishes were horses beggars might ride," says the old saw, but in Persia beggars actually do ride, although they patronize the humble donkey instead of the more aristocratic brother. How they manage to obtain these useful animals, or even to exist themselves, passes European comprehension, but the fact remains that they do both. The Persian tramp, astride his donkey, often makes very long journeys—even as far as Meshed or Mecca, whence he returns with the proud title of "Hadji." Useful as the donkey is to his mendicant master, the latter usually treats him in a most brutal fashion, a length of chain being a frequent substitute for a whip when the unfortunate animal needs encouragement.—Wide World Magazine.

Pope Julius II., who died in 1513, was the first pope to allow his beard to grow in order, it was said, to inspire greater respect among the faithful. He was called the military pope. When Michael Angelo was making his statue he said to him: "Holy Father, shall I place a book in your hand?" "No," answered his holiness, "a sword rather—I know better how to handle it." No Wonder He Groaned. Mrs. Fabbins has written to the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals to know if something can be done to prevent horses from being scratched. She is sure it must be very painful, because her husband, a racing man, is sometimes quite upset and she hears him groan in his sleep about a horse being scratched. Men and Dead Leaves.

A small boy will find infinite delight in hammering tacks into a block of soft wood.

Small tacks, soft wood and a very light hammer, of course, are necessary. If the Truth Were Told.

"The meanest trick I ever heard of," said a poulterer, "is now being played on a certain family of New Jersey hens. This trick comes under two heads. It comes under the head of cruelty to animals and under the head of giving intoxicating drinks to minors. It should be taken up and put a stop to by our female societies. Let the sex stand by one another all the way down the line." "But I thought you were talking about eggs?" "I am talking about eggs. That is the point to my story. You know how hens only want to set at certain times after they've laid a couple of dozen eggs running? Well, on this New Jersey hen farm I speak of they feed the hens alcoholized grain, and while the poor, unprotected creatures are under the influence they place them on top of nests of eggs, and when they come to themselves the past is a blank, they think they laid the eggs beneath them, and for many days squat there dutifully until the chicks are hatched. It's a money-making trick, but it ain't right. To make a poor hen drunk—to deceive her besides in so important a matter as that of offspring. How would you like to be deceived about your offspring? No sir, it ain't right, and it ought to be put a stop to." HAD A USE FOR THE STOVE. Doctor Knew Where He Could Place It to His Advantage. The following story is being told of a certain celebrated Parisian doctor, whose domestic relations are said to be not altogether satisfactory. He was called in one day to prescribe for a lady who thought she had influenza. But the doctor, after observing her symptoms, looked about the room in order to discover the cause. Suddenly he perceived the stove, a very beautiful work of art, and exclaimed: "My dear madam, that stove is the cause of your trouble; it is filling your room with poisonous gas, and if you continue to use it, it will end by killing you." "But doctor, it cost me $24." "No matter; better lose your money than your health." But as the lady seemed unconvinced, the doctor added: "I will give you one-quarter the price, and see if I cannot get rid of the thing." So the stove departed. Later on the patient was changing her apartments and went to look at some others that were being vacated. In one of the rooms she inspected she recognized her former stove. "Who is living here?" she inquired. "Mme. G—, the mother-in-law of the famous Dr. —," was the reply. With a smile of understanding the lady left. —Tit-Bits. Deserved. "Say, you; what is your claim to admittance?" St. Peter demanded. "Well," the Shade replied, diffidently, "once my new derby hat blew off—" "Well?" "And I had to chase it a block—" "Go on." "And I didn't say anything." "You come in," St. Peter said, cordially, unbarring the storm door and the inner gate. "Any particular key you would like to have your harp?"—Puck.

A London doctor, lecturing, said it was useless to tell a dyspeptic woman not to drink tea. The only thing to do was to give her some harmless stuff in a bottle to be taken every three hours, with strict instructions that she was not to have any tea for four hours before or four hours after each dose. How Great Men Rise. George Stevenson, while a brakeman, took time to learn every detail of the engine. And at night he worked over and over in his mind the mechanical problems that perplexed him, and often spent more time in bed thinking than sleeping. Thus do great men attain their heights. Bravo Soldier's Vanity. Marshal Ney, who was as handsome as he was brave, is said never to have appeared on thefield of battle until he was dressed with scrupulous elegance and his beard carefully curled and perfumed. When he was led out to execution, he was as cool as though he was going to start a dance, only asking that the guts should be aimed low, that his face might not be disfigured.—Sunday Magazine. Unapplauded Heroes. It is a strange thing that the applause of men greets only those who fight with men. They who battle with the enemies of man, with disease, with accident, with unknown forces, and unknown seas and lands, these men must fight, and, if necessary, die almost unnoticed by their follows.—Lancet, London. Many Uses for Pulp. Paper or wood pulp has been used for wheels, rails, cannon, paving bricks, water pipes, telegraph poles, lanterns, leather, textile fabrics, coffins, barrels, milk bottles, straw hats, sponges, thread, porcelain, bullets, shoes, building boards, paint, entire houses and even stoves, that stood fire well. Napoleon Born to Be Waited On. Napoleon had himself dressed by his attendants from head to foot. He put his hand to nothing, but let himself be dressed like an infant, his mind filled with business during the entire performance. The emperor was born, so to speak, to be waited on. When only a general he had as many as three valets.—Constant. Man-of-War. Man-of-war is a phrase applied to a line-of-battle ship, contrary to the usual rule in the English language, by which all ships are feminine. It arose in the following manner: "Men of war" were heavy armed soldiers. A ship full of them was called a "man-of-war ship." In process of time the word "ship" was discarded as unnecessary and there remained the phrase "a man-of-war." Beauty and Character. A famous portrait painter says that beautiful women do not take the best looking pictures. Mere beauty is never successfully reproduced by brush or camera, unless the model expresses character in the lines of her face and eyes. In other words physical beauty alone becomes common place unless it is enriched by some beauty of expression. THE STATESMAN, DENVER, COLORAD Murderer Got Away. On a recent Sunday night a murder was committed in a town not far from Boston. The chief of police, after an hour's examination, left the search for the murderer to an assistant, on the ground that he needed a long night's sleep in order to be around early for the town meeting the next day. The murderer has not been found.—Boston Herald. Short Cut to Secrecy. The officials of the imperial Chinese telegraph administration have been notified that it has been decided to inflict the penalty of decapitation upon any telegraph employee who may in future be found guilty of revealing the contents of secret official telegrams to outsiders.—South China Morning Post, Hongkong. Man's Labor Expensive. The daily work of a grown man has been found by a French psysiologist to be about 0.47 horsepower per hour. He calculates that 250 workmen at three francs per day, or a total of 750 francs, would yield 100 horsepower, which would be supplied by horses at a cost of 60 francs, and by a gas motor for 2.50 francs. England's Best Soldiers. The recruiting sergeant of to-day does not find his best recruits at the country fair, but in the great towns, where the street urchin, after a little training, develops a devil-may-care bravery that has stood the country in good stead upon many critical occasions.—Country Life, London. One Thing That Is Plentiful. A wit remarks: "Everybody is sorry to be abused unless it is because he is rich." If the rich derive any joy from being abused they must constitute the most hilariously joyful portion of the community in these days. Their only competitors are the political bosses.

Great Areas Enclosed by Solidly Built Stone Walls. The temple ruins at Rhodesia are puzzlers. The erudite folks used to say they were ancient, but Dr. Randall Macivers, their latest explorer, says they were built in the Middle Ages. He says the great "elliptical temple" was the fortified residence of the great chief or Monomortapa, whose sway extended over an enormous area and an extensive population. To understand how architectural feats like the finer Rhodesian buildings can have been achieved by the precursors of the modern South African natives it is necessary to assume that in those days there was organization of a far higher character than has obtained in recent years, organization under great chiefs whose power and intelligence were of a relatively high order. From the Portuguese and their records this would appear to have been the case in the days of the Monomortapan empire of the Middle Ages down to the close of the sixteenth century. The organization of labor implied by the elaborate and decorated stone architecture is remarkable. Even more remarkable than the fortified castles are the terrace walls. These stone built walls form irregular concentric rings around the hills upon which the villages were situated, and although structurally simple, cover an enormous area, extending in close formation over a space of upward of 50 square miles. LAND WEALTH OF NEW YORK. Greater in Aggregate Than That of Many a Nation. Few people realize the tremendous land wealth of New York city to-day, says a writer in Moody's Magazine. The total land valuations of the city by its recent census reached the enormous figure of $5,800,000,000; this is an increase of $400,000,000 in 1907 over 1906, and 1906, in turn, showed an increase of $480,000,000 over 1905. Within a decade the increase has been considerably over 100 per cent. New York real estate is to-day valued at more than one-twentieth of the entire wealth of the United States. It is greater than the entire wealth of many states and even of many foreign countries. It is 25 per cent. more than the entire wealth of Holland, Spain, Sweden and Norway; 50 per cent. more than Switzerland, Denmark or Portugal; it is one-third that of Italy, one-fourth that of Austria-Hungary, one-fifth that of Russia, one-seventh that of Germany, one-eighth that of France, one-tenth that of great Britain and Ireland. It is indeed an imperial city in an empire state. Also, Eisewner. In England it is not what you know that is of importance, but whom you know; not what you are, but who you are; not what you do for yourself, but what others will do for you.—London Truth.

Keep Out of Ruts. Don't get into a rut. Look to the right and the left, and always upward. Grow upward to the light, like the plants and flowers. You stand a plant in a dark corner, and what does it do? It stretches out its leaves and tendrils to God's beautiful light. The flowers turn their faces to the sun; always looking upward! It is progress Don't sit in darkness. Come up and out, and join the children of light A busy woman once said that she never knew how much she could accomplish until she became the companion of her young sons, sharing their sports and limiting her own working hours to theirs. To-day they are young men and she looks like their sister. There are other young mothers of grown men and they are rather formidable rivals to younger women. The sons unconsciously make comparisons, generally in favor of mother. It is beautiful to "grow up" in this fashion with one's children, says a writer; to keep pace with them in new studies and new thoughts, something like a second youth. We are so quick to put away youthful things unless we have some such incentive to hold them. The Nicest Way He Knew. A Boston physician has two young hopefuls, Master Tommy and Miss Jennie, the latter the elder by a year or two. A few days ago Master Tom came in, whimpering, with the complaint: "Papa, Jennie's got my roller skates on, and I want 'em, and she won't give 'em to me." "Did you ask her for them kindly, my son?" "Yea, papa." "Well, suppose you go back and try again. Ask her just the nicest way you know, and see if you can't get them." The youngster trotted out, and the father from the doorway heard him ask in wheedling tones: "Jennie, for God's sake, let me take them skates!" All the Particulars. French gendarme sent in the following report to his superior officer recently: "The undersigned declares that at ten o'clock in the morning he passed in such a street and saw two women and two men in a shop occupied in breaking glasses, the two women by the hair of their heads and the two men by the scruff of their necks, and of which one had a broomstick, which was the master of the shop and which affair the undersigned has nothing to say and knows nothing about it." Continual Scheming. They were calling on the garret bard. "And I suppose it is essential that you poets should have wonderful imaginations?" ventured the pretty girl. "Well, I should say so," replied the poet, as he lashed off another spring sonnet. "If we didn't have wonderful imaginations we could never create the yarns we tell our creditors when they come around looking for money." They Don't Grow There.

The Union Health and Accident Company is the only home institution that has complied with the new law by depositing with the State of Colorado ONE HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS as a guarantee that the rights of the policy holders will be protected. There are many companies soliciting business whose resources are less than three hundred dollars, and more than twenty of them have failed during the past few years. It would appear that there is no chance of their success, in view of the fact that the people have their choice of a strong or weak concern, the cost of insuring being the same.

The Odd Fellows of Rocky Mountain Lodge have always been favorites of the public that wants to be entertained and their coming annual reception and grand ball at East Tnruer hall Thursday, Nov. 14th, will be the hit of the season. A committee that comprises several seasons' entertainers is in charge. This is the oldest lodge of the order in the West and numbers its friends by the legion, so that besides the music and dancing the social feature will be well worth the 35 cents admission. PASTOR HAS CALL. Rev. C. D. Dougiass, the pastor of Central Baptist church, has received a call from the Mound Street Baptist church of Cincinnati. This church is the largest in Ohio and has an edifice that rivals anything in the West, being modern in all respects. This call is such a splendid one that Rev. Douglass cannot but consider it as a compliment. He has it under advisement and what his decision will be is left for the future to say. Coming so soon after our losing another prominent Baptist divine, in the person of Rev. J. E. Ford, Denver seems fated to be the stepping stone for higher position for its ministers. WORKED OUT FOR GOOD. Denver Negroes have met the abnormal situation caused by the presence of Senator Tillman here, with considerable more good sense than some other cities have shown. The voice of protest, should always be raised in condemnation of the wrong and defense of the right, but there is limit which good sense sets beyond which we cannot go and maintain the equilibrium of races in this country. Both the subsequent appeals to the sense of justice of the community and the remarks made at the lecture itself have been temperate. We have begun to show ourselves confident of being equal to the conditions that surround us and are resorting less and less to meaningless mouthings. THE STATESMAN, DENVER, COLORADO. DESERVING OF THANKS Prof. Alzamon Ira Lucas, who set the counteracting influences to work against Tillman is deserving of thanks for the very sane manner in which he set about confounding the arch fiend of race prejudice. Granting the injustice of Tillmanism, we are a minority element of this country and must proceed circumspectly. We must win our way. We must hold fast to every friend and push on. Prof. Lucas both in the inception and in the working out of the answer to Tillmanism, was himself the best argument. That a man identified with our race could conduct himself like a gentleman under abuse and injustice, means more than any words. The Alliance, and the citizens who took part in the matter have been equally discreet and wise. Let us give thanks for the visit of Tillman for the things that have come out of it are good. THE PROMPT INSURANCE. Denver. Colo. Dear Sirs:—Your payment of $16.00 for accident, caused by falling off of a street car, was very much appreciated. No red tape and benefits every week—that's the Commonwealth. Yours truly, A. LEVELS, 113 W. Walnut. Felix Woods has returned from a visit to his mother in Texas. Mrs. Fannie Motley has gone to Missouri on business. H. B. Briggs has returned from Brookport, Ill., bringing his mother, who has been sick. Mrs. Ingram has come to the city to visit her daughter, Mrs. C. W. Jones. Mrs. L. A. Peach returned from Omaha Wednesday, where she gave a concert. Mrs. I. H. Wallace accompanied her. Blind Boone of Missouri will be at Shorter December 3rd. Mrs. Lula Hall has moved from 2844 Arapahoe street to the adjoining house of Mrs. Waldron's, on the same street. A very jolly party of ladies was entertained by Mrs. L. W. Muse and Miss M. Thirkles on last Saturday evening at Labor Grand. They were Mrs. A. A. Waller, Mrs. J. B. Moore and Miss M. L. Willis. Gus Saunders, who for years has been a chef on the Rock Island, coming as far as Limon, has succumbed to consumption contracted only a short while ago. He died at Limon Thursday of last week. He was one of the best known and best liked railroad men coming here and will be missed by many friends. Gentlemen:—Your payment of $21 to me for my late sickness was highly appreciated, as you paid me every week and that is what people need. I have seen all the other insurances, but the Commonwealth is certainly the best. Mining ventures, investment companies, charitable, fraternal and educational projects and associations have been inaugurated and to all this community has extended a listening ear, a searching inquiry and a cautious action. Comes now a religious organization of all the churches, big, little, rich, poor, the humble and the proud, all together to gather through their respective heads and scrutinizingly, prayerfully, as well as helpfully and mercifully discuss the burning issues of this community which touch, influence and tend to shape the morals, characters and destinies of entire folk of this city. We welcome this movement of unionship. We can already see how materially, socially, financially and spiritually the churches will be speedily helped. We see closer bonds of brotherly love cemented, true Christ-likeness revealed besides the ever-present example of each of the respective heads reflected on each particular congregation. Unionism in revivals will mean a religious setting on fire of Denver which will redound to the benefit of Christ. Unionism of Christ against the "Evil Spirit" will make the common enemy that has augmented his forces by the split and separate churches trying to do individually what should have been done collectively, dislodge in many places. As an evidence of this good, neighborly, as well as fraternal regard, Thanksgiving services of all the churches will be held at Campbell A. M. E. church, and every church will be represented and take some part. If the crowd is too large an overflow meeting may be arranged, but the main force and energy will be spent at Campbell A. M. E. church, corner of Twenty-third and Lawrence streets. The ministers will then meet every Monday thereafter to discuss and arrange their Sunday sermons. This will in no wise affect their attendance to the Ministerial Alliance of Denver, which meets once a month. The purpose and object being to discuss those questions which more directly and vitally affect us and which we do not care for others to be present at the discussion. Therefore we welcome the movement and congratulate the brothers for getting together and sincerely trust much good can be accomplished. FOR REVENUE for one or the sylvania avail Rev. W.

How to Treat Employes. Every store that I know of in Amer ica obliges its help tu stand on their feet from morning until closing time. Behind each counter in my store is a chair. I want my employes when not busy to sit down and rest. As I walk through the different departments in my store my employes do not have to feel that they must brace up be- cause the “boss” is coming around My employes are doing right all the time because they know that I am do- ing right and using them as near right as I know how. My employes would far rather have me home than abroad. I guess that I am an easier fellow to work for than the manager, but he cannot be very severe with them, be- cause I always tell him to use them just as I use him. 1 tell every man at the head of a department, “Be kind to the help under you. Do not speak to them in any other way than the way I speak to you. Handle your help so that they will respect you and so that they will regret to leave my em ploy." —Everybody's.

Sister, the way has been dark and cloudy, Since you left your dear old home, But the Lord giveth and He taketh, For He knows what's best. For your little one's gone home to heaven, And sickness has surrounded you, But you have looked up to your Father In your darkest hour on earth. He has sent His swift-footed messenger And took your loved husband home. Look up, dear sister, and never let the cross forsake you; Cling to it through life. His will was done, not yours, For look, behind that dark cloud A bright ray of sunshine, And the loved Savior smiling down on you. Grieve not for them, loved one; Live to meet them in that better land on high; They are not dead, but only sleeping; Not lost, but gone before to meet their Savior. Live so that when the Master comes to call you, And your work on earth is done, That you will walk through the valley and shadow of death And your loved ones will lead you to Christ. —Laura Butler. THE BEST COMPANY. Denver, Colo. Commonwealth Life, Denver, Colo. Dear Sirs:—Your lack of red tape in paying me $10.00 for my illness was certainly appreciated. The Commonwealth is certainly all right. Yours truly, MRS. GERTRUDE STEWART, 2418 California. 1523 16TH ST.

The genial president, Ida Roey-Banks., the result of whose tireless efforts were so magnificently seen Thursday night, had Mrs. O. Dishman, possessing an exceptional talent along these lines, to be responsible, as chairman of the Entertainment committee, for the funny, jolly and singular games and whose efforts in such easily made her a superior to others. She was the party who gave the lemon, the peanut in which there was "Rastus Dotsy" Harper; the corn cob, which had but one ear; the leafless tree and the eyless potato. To Mrs. Irene Fife for the homely, odd and funny decorations, for the wholesome and timely refreshments and for the spacious and commodious quarters too much reward and praise cannot be given, as words fail to express the desired effect. The pewter spoons put on "Dishman" plates with pumpkin pie, made on the "Banks" and tuned with a "Fife," presented rather a peculiar and puzzling spectacle as well as making a firm impression upon the mind. For active workers, whose valuable assistance was so prominent, Mesdames T. E. McClain, Lillie Moore, McGuire and Lillian Jones have no superiors. Mrs. McClain, with her winning disposition, Mrs. Moore with her presence, McGuire with her countenance beaming with smiles, and Mrs. Lillian Jones, who by special request sang "Love Me and the World is Mine," with her always admired contralto voice, were the welcome additions to the event. The following program was rendered: Remarks, Mrs. O. Dishman; "What Is Hallowe'en, Mrs. T. E. McClain; hidden trees, prize won by Dr. McClain, a leafless tree; peanut grab, prize won by Dr. J. A. Harper, a peanut with "Rastus Dotsy" inside; hunt prize, found by Mrs. Rice, a lemon; the club was then visited by three witches riding on broomsticks in the persons of Mrs. Lillian Jones, Drs. Harper and McClain, who were THE STATESMAN, DENVER. led to the bonfire by Mephistophles with cloven feet in the person of C. A. Tasker; potato race, won by Waymond Ward, prize, an eyeless potato; corn guess was won by Chas. Casey, a "ear" of corn, after which the entire club sang "Once On a Time" and had the scenes portrayed with illustrations by Mrs. Irene Fife and Dr. Harper. Thus ended the fun session of the Choral society. The following have become recent members of the Choral society: Misses Gertrude Nichols, Grace Montgomery, Green of Arkansas, Mabel Fore and Chas. Gaskins. The club is busy preparing special solo work, selections for mixed voices and solos, to be accompanied with a soprano soloist. Mrs. Faulkner is the piano accompanist for the society. Greater work, better service and bigger attendance is the director's slogan. The Choral club is debating the questions of having associate members, of how to secure a musical hall especially for the club and how to better inspire, broaden and improve the musical art in Denver.
