THE RIVER continues filled with
broken ice, which. however, offers but
little resistance to steamers, though it
obstrucs sailing vessels. The tugs
Templar and Eva Belle Cain left here
this morning with the schooner Holland
and five oyster boats for the lower
river and later the tugs Carter aud Nc
Fadden passed up having in tow num-
Der of oyster vessels. The steamer
Belle Haven which was withdrawn
yesterday did not resume her trips on
the ferry line this morning as was ex
pected, but will probably do so to-
morrow. The continued mild weather
is causing the ice to gradually melt.

has ever known, but all the learning
wit and eloquence were as nothing
compared to the outpouring of human
sympathy and love. The Womani
club of Denver kept open house dur
ing the entire convention and here on,
was received by han somely gownet
women who looked after your com
fort and pleasures with all the accom-
paniments of an elegant afternoon re
ception in private home. Then eacf
day had its own particular reception
or garden party or luncheon. The
private luncheOns and uinners given
i'm honor of the distinguished guests
were most elegant and enjoya b,e
affairs and Denver seemed to ta..e
pride in revealing to the st the
changes that had taken place in west
ern society since the days of Poverty
Flat" or the Assembly Ball." Thurs
day was given over to private recep.
tons to the delegates and magnificent
homes were thrown open all over the
city where gracious hOstesses and
charming young ladies welcomed
their guests from all the states of the
union. The Association of Collegiate
Alumnae, the W. X. C., Sufferer as
ISOLATION, the ID. A. r., the Colonial
Danes, each gave receptions to the
delegates. The Northside Woman's
club gave garden party at Elitch's
garden for all delegates. The members
of the press were rendered an elegant
garden party on beautiful grounds.

common people only by report. But
it was left fOr the forty> women at
Idaho Springs. who provided luncheon
for the thousand women who went up
on the excursion to Silver Plume to
give the final and magnificent touches
to the social features of the Denver
Biennial. For them was reserved the
greatest honor and glory. Their fame
has spread from ocean to ocean, from
the lakes to the gulf.
Mrs. w. j. Bryan said: 1 may say

praise for the work of the Denver
women. The task was difficult and
they performed it well. Each branch
of entertainment was carefully sub
divided and one hundred and seventy

watermelon day" at Rocky Ford
when your eyes were Toasted upon thu
marvellous mountain of one Thousand
five hundred watermelons, and where
before the day was done, you decided
ly announced that you Ibid not care
for watermelon" and had some mis-
givings about the sight of one in the
future.
And there is ''peac day" at Grand
Junction when thousands of people
come TO eat the large luscious peaches
which are in such lavish abundance
and grow to perfectino in that china e
and now Boulder has strawberry
day."
Boulder is twenty-nine miles from
Denver, with somewhat higher-alti-
tude, and has a population of six
thousand five hundred. 1t is popu-
lar summer resort.
Here is the Colorado state univer-
sity and on one of the most beautiful
sites imaginable, just back of the uni
versity grounds the noted Texas Chau-
tauqua is located. This is situated
just at the junction of the foothills
and the plains and enjoys the eco,
breezes of the mountains while below
lies the lovely town and the fertile
fields of Boulder valley.
The charming morning ride from
Denver ended, the eXcursionists were
given tickets which admitted them
eight hundred at a time to the park
and the Strawberries. These were
served in large saucers with sugar and
in portly pitchers an abundance of
thick cream and with cake. There
was an address of welcome by the
mayor, and tallyho rides about the
beautiful little city and to all points
of interest in the near vicinity, and
then more Strawberries.
1t has been the privilege of many
of us to enjoy these excursions in
beautiful Colorado at different times,
for they are constantly occurring, but
so hospitable, cordial and suave are
the citizens of the silver state that you
are constantly impressed with the con-
viction that your excursion is the one
that they most desired to see, and that
it gave them the greatest pleasure to
greet. Enjoyable as were all these
side trips to points of interest during
and following the convention, per-
haps the most enduring phase will be
the memory of the many pleasant ac-
4uaintances formed with the delegates
and visitors of other states-for this
was a rare opportunity for visiting
rs the meetings of the convention
we're almost continuous-and lasting
friendships in clubdom were doubtless
naugurated which will provoke happy
of coming conventions.

Oar country has been thrown into a
fever of excitement the past few days
which it has not known since the news
flashed over the Country that "Sumpter
had fallen" A man-of-war of peace
full nation, sent upon mission of peace,
lying in a harpor of a civilized nation
blown up at dead of night. Do we
wonder that our country is in state of
unrest? In no history, modern or an
cient. can you find parallel of the
dastavdly act which was perpetrated on
the United States man-of-war, Maine
Accident it certainly was not. Every,
thin e points to the certain facts that it
was the result of deep laid plot which
was carried out so successfully and to
our loss. Shall our country demand in
demnity? No! Money cannot pay for
the lives of those 259 heroes who sacri-
feed themselves so nobly upon the altar
# their country's service. Long may
their country honor them! She can
never repay the debt that she owes to
them. When history has rolled onward
and the historians of the future tell the
people of their times of the past fate OF
the Maine and the 25S officers and mer
will be emblazoned on its pages tnat
they may read of their noble heroism.
