A widow, three children and four grandchildren survive, John H. Washington, a brother, is superintendent of industries at Tuskegee institute. The funeral will be held at Tuskegee institute Wednesday morning.
Dr. Washington was born in slavery near Hales Ford, Va., in 1857 or 1858. After the emancipation of his race, he moved with his family to West Virginia. When he was able to scrape together sufficient money to pay his stage coach fare to Hampton, Va., he entered General Armstrong's school for Negroes and worked his way thru an academic course, graduating in 1875. Later he became a teacher in the Hampton institute, where he remained until 1881, when he organized the Industrial School for Negroes at Tuskegee, to which he devoted most of his attention during the remaining years of his life. The institute started in a rented shanty church, and today it owns 3,500 acres of land in Alabama and has nearly 100 buildings valued at $500,000.
In addition to his prominence as an educator, Dr. Washington gained considerable fame as an orator. An honorary degree of master of arts was conferred upon him by Har-

Gov Carlson Sends Sympathy

The photoplay "The Birth of a Nation" was described as a "damnable lie" by the Rev. J. Noble Pierce in a sermon recently at the Second Congregational church, Dorchester. "It is a lie in not so much what it says, but what it leaves unsaid," he added.
"We have enough race prejudice without augmenting it with a play not wholly true and if it works for race hatred it should not be given. The photoplay is spectacular, magnificent. It is not indecent or immoral in the strictest sense. We see vividly and accurately the assassanation of Lincoln. We see the Southern Legislature. We see the renegadew who fastens his lustful eyes on one m the ostutiful characters of the play a southern lassie.
"We see the educated Negro who fastens his eye on another beautiful character and we see the clansmen and many other things which stir the blood. It is a magnicent spectacle, but a lie.
INSPIRING YOUNG COLORED MEN
INSPIRING YOUNG COLORED MEN
Dr. S. M. Clark of Knoxvi.le. Tenn., Sets the Pace.
MADE RAPID PROGRESS.
Prominent Physician Is Just One of the Race Making Good, and His Work In Arousing the Enthusiasm of Young Men Is Being Noticed and Is Worthy of Praise.
Knoxville, Tenn.-Hundreds of young men of the colored race are making good in the various professions, and some of them are taking their places in the front rank. In this number is to be found Dr. S. M. Clark of Knoxville, Tenn., who has made rapid progress as a physician and surgeon.
Like the Father of His Country George Washington, he is claimed by Virginia, being born in Pulaski in 1882. He got his foundation there, graduating from the high school. But this was not enough for this ambitious young man, so he entered Morristown college.
DR. S. M. CLARK.
graduating therefrom with honors and was a prize winner. He won the gold medal for oratory.
He lived in the hearts of the members of his class, and it is not surprising that he should be the president of his class in 1906, leading his class out of the school. The commencement exercises of that year were said to be the finest in the history of the school. But young Clark did not feel that all was in his head, but there was room for improvement, especially since he was going to make a place among the professional men.
With his college diploma he entered Meharry Medical college, Nashville, Tenn., in the fall of 1906. This was his forte, and it was not long after he entered the school before his ability as a student was recognized. He succeeded in passing the state board in his junior year and was permitted to practice in Tennessee.
It was in the spring of 1910 that he graduated from the Meharry Medical college with high honors and decided to locate in Knoxville. Then he fitted up a first class office. He was without the real cash, but had ambition and pluck, backed by industry, honesty and reliability, and it was on this that he furnished his office on credit. The whole bill was soon paid, and his practice continued to grow.
Looking out for the future, Dr. Clark has purchased a lovely home in the most popular residential section of the city. In it are to be found his lovely wife and two sons. His home has been blessed. He has traveled very extensively since he has finished school through Canada, Mexico and many sections of this country—and has had access to some of the best hospitals in America, which has greatly helped him in his own work.
His success has not carried him away from his people or church, but is found active in religious work. He is one of the leading members in the Vine Street M. E. church, being chairman of the trustee board, and during the past year took the lead in the erection of a new church, which cost $10,000. It is just completed, and as chairman of the board he had entire charge of the work and has given it his personal attention.
Recognizing his worth to the church and race, he was sent as a delegate to the annual conference a few week.
ago, and his annual conference, feeling the need of a strong, active member to represent it in general conference, elected Dr. Clark a delegate to the general conference, which meets next May in Saratoga Springs. He is to be found in church every Sunday. In fraternal organizations he is an active man. He is the medical examiner of the Knights of Pythias, the Masons and the Odd Fellows. Dr. Clark is just one of the young men of the race making good and deserves credit for what he is doing to inspire the young men of his race.
SUCCESS OF DR. H. C. BRYANT.
Fine Record of a Northwestern University Graduato at Birmingham, Ala.
Birmingham, Ala.—The large number of well qualified men and women of our race in the south who have made and are making their mark in the various professions, religious work and in business has often been the subject of comment in other sections of the country. Not only have these persons risen to prominence in their own local sphere, but their influence in many instances is national. Be it said also to their credit that they come from some of the best institutions of learning in both the south and the north.
The fact that so many of them have settled in the south to work out their destiny among our people, where in many instances they may the better serve the race, is a high compliment to their education and desire for racial advancement. The same may be said of hundreds of the same class in the north, but not to such high degree when the matter of remuneration for service is taken into consideration. In both the south and the north the field for religious and educational development is rich in opportunities.
In this city the race has in the person of young Dr. Henry Clay Bryant one of the best prepared and most energetic physicians to be found among
HENRY CLAY BRYANT, M. D.
any people anywhere. He bears, with possibly four other professional men of the race in medicine, the unique distinction of holding a membership in the national surgical congress and was present at the recent meeting of that body, which was held in Boston. Dr. Bryant is well and favorably known to the medical profession among the leaders in both races.
Although comparatively young in years, he is ripe in that kind of medical experience and skill which counts for so much in his work. The heights to which he has already attained in his profession and the large place which he has made for himself among the public would be considered by some a fitting climax with which to close a career of great usefulness. He is unting in his efforts to excel in his chosen line; hence he makes good use of every opportunity for study and contact by which he may gain more knowledge and experience. Henry Clay Bryant received his first college training at the famous Fisk university at Nashville, Tenn. On leaving Fisk Dr. Bryant entered the medical school of Northwestern university, at Chicago, from which he was graduated with honors. His first service as a physician was as an interne at the Provident hospital, Chicago, where he made an enviable record and laid, as it were, the foundation for his future as a practicing physician.
Dr. Bryant is the chief surgeon at the George C. Hall hospital, in this city, and one of the surgical staff of the John A. Andrew Memorial hospital, at the Tuskegee (Ala.) hospital He is modest and retiring in demeanor, but his success does not permit his talents or his great work to be hidden. He is happily married to (Miss Myra G. Jones) the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Joseph L. Jones of Cincinnati Mr. Jones is chairman of the executive committee of the National Negro Press association. Dr. and Mrs. Bryant are the proud parents of a son, Henry Clay

NORTH AND SOUTH HONOR LATE ROBERT CURTIS OGDEN
Ex-President Taft Heads Committee For Memorial Building at Hampton.
Hampton, Va.—North and south are joining heartily in raising a fund of $100,000 for the Robert Curtis Ogden Memorial Auditorium, which will soon be built at the Hampton (Va.) institute. William Howard Taft, chairman of the Ogden memorial committee, which is composed of public spirited men and women representing the best interests of the south and north, has issued through the New York office of the executive secretary, Sydney D. Frissell, the following statement:
It is proposed by many of his friends now to erect a suitable memorial to Mr. Robert C. Ogden, whose services to this country justify a fitting testimonial to a man well called "an unofficial statesman" because of the new and unique character of his work for education in the south.
The southern education board was constituted under his leadership, and its work marked a new epoch of national progress. It brought together men and women of the north and east and south and west who were able to further greatly the education of the
OGDEN AUDITORIUM AS IT WILL BE south, and especially of the white race. For forty years Mr. Ogden had been a trustee of Hampton institute and for twenty years the president of its trustees. The record of Mr. Ogden's life work makes it clear that Hampton institute is the most fitting place for a permanent memorial. There is urgent need there for a large auditorium, and already a few of his friends have subscribed one-third of the $100,000 necessary for the erection of such a building. This would be particularly suitable to the memory of Mr. Ogden.
Other officers of the Ogden memorial committee are: Edwin A. Alderman, Miss Ellen F. Mason, William Jay Schieffelin and Mrs. John Markoe, vice chairmen; George Foster Peabody, secretary, and Clarence H. Kelsey, 176 Broadway, New York, treasurer.
The national character of the committee is shown by the number of states represented — Alabama, Arkansas, Connecticut, Georgia, Massachusetts, New York, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Virginia and the District of Columbia. The Ogden memorial at Hampton institute will furnish an opportunity to many men and women to show their appreciation of "Mr. Ogden's sagacious leadership and most gracious character, which was so instinct with hospitality."
HIDES IN LIFEBOAT.
Stowaway Takes Journey Here to See His Invalid Mother.
Philadelphia.-Love for his mother and a desire to see her before she died caused Ellsworth P. Boyer, a colored boy, of West Chester, to risk his life to reach America. He arrived as a stowaway on the British liner Dominion from Liverpool.
Boyer was with a Negro minstrel troupe in England that failed. While he was looking for work he received a letter which said that his mother was ill and was not expected to live. As he had no money, he worked his way to Liverpool and there stowed away in a lifeboat on the Dominion.
Since the war began all vessels have been running with their lifeboats swung over the sides ready to lower at a moment's notice. They are plentifully supplied with food and water. For six days Boyer stayed hidden in the lifeboat, subsisting on what he found there. During this time he was in danger of being thrown out by the lurching of the Dominion every time she was struck by a large sea. Upon his arrival immigration officials released him
Big Year at Wilberforce
Wilberforce, O.-The Indications are that Wilberforce university will enroll this year nearly 600 students, the largest number in its history. Aside from the American students there are several from Africa, including two African girls. One of the students is from East Africa, 12,000 miles from New York.

Lesson VIII. — Fourth Quarter,
For Nov. 21, 1915.
Text of the Lesson, Jonah iii, 1-10.
Memory Verse, 10—Golden Text,
Matt. xxviii, 19, 20—Commentary Prepared by Rev. D. M. Stearns.
Any one who questions the truth or the reality of this story of Jonah casts discredit on the Lord Jesus Christ, for He called Jonah a prophet and said that his three days and nights in the belly of the fish were typical of His own three days and nights between His death and resurrection. He also spoke of the repentance of the people of Nineveh under the preaching of Jonah and of a future judgment (Matt. xii, 39-41; Luke xi, 32). To question the words of the Lord Jesus is to question God the Father, for He said that the Father always told Him what to say (John xii, 47-50). Jesus Christ said, "I am The Truth," and God is called "the God of Truth" (John xiv, 6; Isa. ixv, 16). Therefore let our hearts cry, "Let God be true, but every man a liar." "For we can do nothing against the truth, but for the truth" (Rom. ill, 4; II Cor. xiii, 8).
When Jonah is mentioned people always think of the fish, whereas the fish is mentioned but four times in the book, while God or Lord is mentioned forty times. We are not as right with God as we might be until we give the same relative importance to people and things that He does; therefore let us not magnify the fish, but the Lord. This is called a foreign missionary lesson, and it is certainly a good one on that topic, as we shall see. Two of the great foundation truths of the Bible are "God is love" and "The Lord is not willing that any should perish" (I John iv, 8, 10; 11 Pet. iii, 9). In this lesson we see a great city of at least 600,000 people (120,000 children) and much cattle, and there was great wickedness in the city (Jonah i, 2; iv, 11), but God would rather save than destroy them, and He sent Jonah to call upon them to repent that He might spare them.
That is always God's attitude to the world lying in the wicked one. He commandeth all men everywhere to repent, for He will have all men to be saved and to come unto the knowledge of the truth (Acts xvll, 30; I Tim. ii, 3, 4). But how can they know unless some one tells? So Jonah is called of God to go and tell Nineveh that, while the Lord does not wish them to perish, unless they repent judgment will come in forty days (1, 1, 2; ill, 4). At first Jonah is unwilling to go and seeks to flee from the call. Then follows the record of the voyage to Tarsishh begin seemingly so favorably, but suddenly interrupted, for God sent two detectives to arrest His man and bring him back. A great wind to stop him and a great fish to bring ashore (1, 4, 17). Arrested on the high seas and brought back, it reads like an up to date story, for our God is always up to date and away ahead. Look at the wireless and rapid transit as seen in the story of Daniel and Gabriel (Dan. ix, 3, 20, 21).
As to the present day attitude of those who profess to be the Lord's people toward the command of our Golden Text and of Mark xvi, 15; Luke xxiv, 47; John xx, 21, 23; Acts 1, 8, could there be a more vivid picture than that of Jonah on this ship before the captain woke him up? The only man on the ship who knew the true God fast asleep, while the heathen sailors earnestly cried unto their gods. Those who have the Bible and in it the knowledge of the living and true God and of salvation by Jesus Christ for all who will receive Him are as indifferent to the welfare of the millions of so called heathen who are earnestly calling upon their gods as was Jonah when fast asleep on that ship. They need to hear the cry of that shipmaster: "What meanest thou, O sleeper? Arise, call upon thy God, if so be that God will think upon us that we perish not" (1, 6).
Now see the forewarning of His plan. Israel has long been rebellious, but when they shall see the Lord Jesus, the risen Christ, their glorious and glorified Messiah, coming in His glory, as Saul saw Him on the way to Damascus, they will receive Him and with the zeal of Paul will speedily make Him known to all the world, and whole nations will turn to Him and be saved (Isa. xxv, 9; xxvil, 6; xxvx, 10; lil, 9, 10; lx, 1-3; Rom. xl, 12, 15). Notice in this book how God used a wind, a fish, a worm and even such a strange man as Jonah and, being first of all sure that you are redeemed by the precious blood of Jesus Christ, say to Him with all your heart. "Here am I; use me." Oh, use my Lord, use even me, just as thou wilt and when where, until Thy bless, ed face I see; Thy rest, Thy joy, Thy glory share.

DEATH OF BOOKER T. WASHINGTON.
The good a man does lives after him and the evil is often interred in his bones. Let this be the case of Booker T. Washington. Life with its many ramifications, misunderstandings, heartaches, joys, failures and successes, is hard to judge by one who performs upon the stage of action. At best if a man's purpose or intention be honest, his work directed in the direction of uplift, help and encouragement of his people, then he should receive credit for his success and even of his good intentions.
Booker T. Washington need not have the mantle of charity thrown around him, altho at times he, like the rest of us, in our anxiety to do good, made some grevious mistakes, for which the race later suffered. This happened especially in his earlier career, but during the latter part of his life he was more reserved and cautious. Only a few months ago the race lost another big man, the most eloquent orator in the United States. Dr. M. C. B. Mason, the great Methodist Episcopal scholar and philosopher on "Africa" especially. These two distinct blows coming to the race at this time, especially at the time when all of Europe is in the greatest turmoil, including Liberia, recently involved. These great men's work had been finished and they were called home to rest. God intends to raise up new leaders, perhaps on different lines of endeavor. And out of their lives of inspiration, self sacrifice and diligence other great or even greater men will come. God still reigns and He will look after His children. While Booker T. Washington, Tuskegee's inspiration and founder, has died, his spirit will ever live as long as American ideals of self-made men live and are cherished. May his ashes rest in peace. Selah.

Y. W. C. A. NOTES.
Thursday, 4th, Mrs. Helen Johnson, chairman of recreation committee of Y. W. C. A., newly organized club, took a party of girls on their first hike. The day was perfect and the company hit the road from Lakeside to Arvada as far as the Sheridan road. They then circled the town and returned to the ranch of Mr. Britton and there, in true fashion of the outdoor life, ate the hikers' lunch. Don't ask about the apples, nor the celery, nor the milk. Don't ask about the snap shots. They returned by way of inspiration point and only one quitter. These hikes are a feature of this branch of the association. All who missed it are losers.

GREAT PROMOTER OF EDUCATION
Robert C. Ogden as Statesman and Philanthropist.
BENEFACTOR OF THE NATION
Influential Columbia University Instructor Pays a Wonderful Tribute to Man Who Led Movement For Co-ordinating Organizations For Education in the South—Beloved by Both Races.
By TALCOTT WILLIAMS.
The auditorium to be erected at Hampton institute, Hampton, Va., in memory of Robert Curtis Ogden, will be less the memorial of a man than the monument of an epoch. In the light of a world war, in the presence of great events thick sown from the hand of time on the field of the present, it is plain that Mr. Ogden and those who labored with him at the opening of this century were the instruments of far wider and more far-reaching laborors than they were aware, or even those now laboring can themselves know or perceive.
The Spanish war was much more than a conflict with a European power the redemption of Cuba, or the acquisition by the United States of its first colonial and insular possessions. Wars all and reveals all, and the Spanish war revealed the United States to itself. General Wheeler in federal uniform was the outward sign of the common purpose of all Americans to look forward and not back, to talk less of the past and act more in the present and to decide and determine once for all that there was nothing in any state which was not important to every state
The hour was fit. Those who were close to the heart and progress of off-fairs from the panic of 1893 to the revival from 1897 to 1899 in all the framework of production, transportation, distribution and consumption know how dire was the last decade of the nineteenth century for all the land and most of all for the south. Rail roads had gone into the hands of receivers along the South Atlantic coast on the broad uplift beyond the Appalachians, along the gulf and in the south west. The expectation of great mineral and fuel development in the south incomparably rich at these points, began in 1879.
The cotton crop had grown in volume and fallen in price. Education in all its grades, elementary, secondary and higher, had made great advance over the past. The southern taxpayer had accomplished a great task in the education of the Negro at the public expense, patiently bearing the burden of those unable to educate themselves, but this work was unorganized, insufficiently recorded and known, unappreciated by the country at large. In the education of the white race a gap still remained in almost every southern state between the public school system and higher education.
The public schools themselves had grown, advanced, improved and multiplied in the period between 1865 and the close of the century on a scale not to be equaled in the annals of a territory as large, a population as great and with a division as fundamental in all the history of education, but the south of itself knew not its own progress, and the educational forces of the north were in greater ignorance. What the south had done for itself was not known to organized education in the north, and what the north had done in the south through many agencies, by schools like that of Hampton, by funds like the Shater fund and by widespread contributions, was not known by the body of public sentiment in the south. Often, because those in charge of this work had not interlinked their efforts with local education.
The reconciling word was needed, and Robert C. Ogden spoke the reconciliing word. Co-ordinating organization was demanded, and he led the movement which brought that. In successive conferences for education in the south, begun at Capon Springs in 1808 and continued to the end of his life, one city after another, one state after another, was aroused to a consciousness of its own efforts—the work already done, the need that remained, and the necessity for co-operation and organization.
Robert C. Ogden was not himself present at the great meeting of county superintendents of public education from all over the south held just before his death at Hampton institute to consider the joint problems of southern education. Such a conference at such a place for such a purpose, marshaling that great and noble army of superintendents, who county by county shepherd the hardest and most difficult of national tasks—the education of two races—would have seemed inconceivable twenty years before, when Mr. Ogden began his work of organization co-ordination and reconciliation.
For this task he had every training provided not by schools or by wisdom and direction of men, but by Providence. Born in 1836 in Philadelphia and his life ending in 1913, his conscious years bridged all the march of events from the period before the civil war to the days which saw the ful harvest north and south of the surge gle. He had fought in the civil war. He had become a trustee of Hampton institute in 1874 and the president of its board a quarter of a century later. He had seen himself the work of educating the Negro from the schools of the freedmen's burrow to the continent.
made today by public agencies and private beneficence. He was a business man. He knew business methods. He had personally shared in the work of organizing the scattered and fluctuating retail trade of the sixties into the great department stores of today. No one who knew his work in the establishment founded and still headed by John Wanamaker but saw in that work the training and ability which later fruited in a great national task. Above all, he was a large minded, large hearted Christian to whom all men were brothers and all work divine service.
This task was as simple in its elements as it was difficult in its solution. There were the great, liberal, but unco-ordinated expenditure of southern states for white and black, effective and useful, but twenty years ago out of the current of national educational movements and development. There were the institutions for the Negro founded by northern benevolence and too often for various reasons now happily disappearing apart from the communities in which they were. There were the southern colleges and universities, the academies and lesser institutions, old and new, which before the civil war had given the south a larger proportion of college graduates than any other section, but whose work at the opening of this century was not in many cases interwoven with the new education of the south.
Contributions on a large scale came as a result of Mr. Ogden's labors. He was a member of the General Education board, with the Rockefeller fund to disburse, and he inspired its work in the south, a work with grants in aid of institutions, long continued expenditure for agricultural training, and, more lately, the sanitary campaigns against the bookworm and other maladies. The Jeanes fund of $1,000,000 for aiding rural Negro schools in the south is the outcome of the movement of which Mr. Ogden was the head, and is spreading industrial training. There are other great gifts
But gifts are nothing unless in them abides the soul of good, born of good men working together to good ends in noble self sacrifice. Mr. Ogden developed a new tool and instrument of national education and self knowledge. Year by year, at his own cost and an expenditure out of all proportion to his means and income, as lesser and narrower men reckon values, he took a trainload of northern and southern men and women, those who gave largely of their means and those who gave largely of themselves, from one southern city to another. In each—in Winston-Salem, N. C.; In Athens, Ga.; in Richmond, Va.; in Birmingham, Ala.; Columbia, S. C.; Lexington, Ky.; Pinehurst, N. C.; Memphis, Tenn.; Atlanta, Ga.; Little Rock, Ark.; Jacksonville, Fla., and Nashville, Tenn.—there was held a conference of the Southern Education board, which he had organized and to a large extent supported.
The press of the south gave these conferences a wider and more liberal report than have the newspapers of any part of the United States given to an educational movement. These reports educated a public of newspaper readers no halls could hold and no city could gather. The work which the south itself had done grew plain. Needs still greater became visible. This new movement in education (valueless but for the work already done, supported and continued by southern taxpayers and southern educators), co-ordinated, inspired and made of national knowledge all that was in progress for white and black alike. [Professor Talcott Williams is the director of the school of journalism of the Pulitzer foundation in Columbia university, New York.]

Viewing the Ocean From the Coast Line.
(Continued from last week) cuit to a pan. What the Denver colony could not get present, they put the jolly party in touch with their friends by phone. The San Francisco fair was visited, Mrs. Ella Cook, the good-natured, ambitious, loyal Denverite, escorting us through the city, pointing out and explaining to us all the points of interest, especially those affected by the earthquake and fire. The Seal Rocks were also vistied and we saw the seals coming up out of the ocean and sunning and playing on those large segregated pillars of stone used as their playground. When one stands on that promitory and looks out upon the calm and undulating Pacific Ocean, the first thought is lost in attractiveness. The Ocean narrows through a Golden Gate, into a large body of water, called San Francisco Bay. The islands and mountains, the sand-making beaches, the verdant hills and luxuriant valleys, all for a time claimed your attention. Then your eye is forced back upon that mighty expase. And that magnificent sweeping view! How futile is description! Here is sublimity; here is immensity incredible! There to the northwest stood a towering peak in spotless white—majestic beautil, awful. On the west a mighty ocean superb and placid stretching infinite in distance. In the east are busy cities of commerce, whose basic foundations are said to be constantly changing by earthy disturbances. The eyes are strained, the senses dazed, in grasping the proportions of that stupendous sea. And the sun shines golden on its glimmering shifting sand, while purple shadows wander here and there beneath the shifting clouds. As we stood there in reverential silence, we thought who
As we stood there in reverential silence, we thought who could have gazed there from that eyrie without emotions deep and thrilling; and who has not borne away impressions, strange and indefinable, but indelible as well? Here where infinitude is so vividly portrayed, that he who knows not reverence must bow his unwilling head.
We touched this mighty ocean with soles of our shoes and after spending the day at the fair, we hurried home to a hot dinner prepared for us at the Cook residence. On our transfer on the ferry, we witnessed a boat on fire down the bay.
As all the people rushed on one side, we thought of the Chicago disaster. Arriving safely home where the Denver colony had increased to 17, including Mr. and Mrs. C D. Kemp, Mesdames Ludy Gilbert, A. E. Holly, Cora Smith and babes and Misses Eva and Pearl Jones. We left for Los Angeles, after Geo. S. Contee joined us at the depot on the Oakland side. Los Angeles, the center of California, was soon reached and that night found us at the A. M. E. church at a reception of Rev. Gregg. While at the reception and in the city the following Denver persons were seen; Misses Tillie Randolph employed at the Merchant bank and who lived with her sister, Mary, at
1558 W. 35th Street. Their mother, Mrs. Randolph lives at 1837 Park avenue in our city. We shall have more to say of little Mary Randolph, as the organizer of the Storytelling club in Los Angeles, in our subseqentissues. Atty. Hugh E. Macbeth, Atty. Chas. S. Darden, Morgan G. Stokes, who is associated with the Milton W. Lewis Real Estate Co; J. W. Calvin, member of St. John lodge No. 5, F. & A. M; Pacific Lodge No. 1, K. of P. and Business Men's Forum; Geo. A. McCullough, Mrs. Eva Carter Buckner, Miss Ruth Jackson, daughter of our Governor's messenger, Sherman Overton, Milton W. Lewis, Leslie Chapman, Mr. and Mrs. Van Cox, Nimrod Gordon; J. R. Kinzy, Mrs. R. B. Anderson, who formerly lived on with street. by the fire dept., this city. All were glad to see us and sent greetings to every Denver friend and inquirer. At Pasadena, Cal., Rev. W. W. S. Dyett, Shorter's great fianceer, met us at the parsonage, where he had been ill the past six months. Yet withal his sickness, he paid more money on his church debt and his church was in a better condition than any in his California conference. Much honor and praise to our onetime pastor.
To the person who obtains the highest number of Cash Subscribers over 75. To the next highest person a valuable Hollow
Mrs. Dyett sends loe to all old friends. They are well situated, well liked and are doingnicely. Their son Water plays the violin in a white orchestra and is a member of the front rank in high school.
SILVER TABLE SET OF 26 PIECES
W. W.
San Diego, the choicest city of California, embowered by green palms, here and there contrasted by deep arroyas with their silvery ribbons of waters: everywhere a display of coloring, both vivid and tender making one exquisite panorama. Far in the distant north east lay the snow-capped mountains and with the ocean on the south and west, a more beautiful and delightful climate, nature could give no place. The beautiful open air depot is the first thing to attract your attention and the hilly streets will also show you how the citizens can and do beautify their homes with floral vines, hedges and flowers of every kind and description.
The Prizes are on display for your inspection at Kortz Jewelry Co., 816 Fifteenth St., near Stout, go in and ask to see them, inspect them and see if the Prizes are worth while.

After spending several hours at the San Diego county fair and seeing the wandering, musical, Mexican serenaders, with their excellent voices, we took a trip to the famous Mexican Bull fight pavillon at Tijuana, Old Mexico just across the line. One can easily discern he is in a foreign land. Returning we were pleased to note the former Denver people doing well; Misses Carrie Carr, Bortha Rector Matthews 1323 J. St., and Mrs. Clara Herndon.
