Memorial Services.

The annual memorial sermon of the
A. o. U. w. Lodge No.16, was preached
at the Presbyterian church last Sunday
evening. Prof Clark and his excellent
choir furnished some special music.
The house was well filled. For text
Mr. Hendoe took Exodus 1914 "This
day shall be unto you for a memorial"
After showing how these words were
spoken at most important time in the
history of the Jewish nation, the prep
aration for the Passover he said the
Lords Supper means to the Christian
what the feast of the Passover meant to
the Jew The church's memorial is the
Lords Supeer.
A memorial to make us remember 1st,
Our salvation is gift of God; I'd, That
we are redeemed from greater bond
age than the Egyptian bondage. We
are freed from the bondage of sin; Sd,
Jesus is the supply for all the needs Of
the soul; 4th, We are bought with a
price-the blood of Christi 5th, The
sacrifice of Christ was for the whole
world. No age, nor people nor country
can claim him exclusive of others. He
further said that no lodge ever organ
lied could take the place OF the church.
There was no ritual ever written that
could answer the question, .What must
do to be saved?" In the lodge there
is love for humanity, but that does not
answer it. There is fellowship, but that
does not answer it. The question is not
between man and man. but between
each man ane God. Doing the very
best one can TO every man is all we'll
enough but it goes only part way. The
terrified jailor at Philippi asked the
question of Paul and Silas and they gave
the only answer that will stand the test
of time and eternity. believe on the
Lord Jesus Christ and thou shalt be
saved" To believe is to trust, to have
faith, to obey and serve.

DEATH of an Old Gilpinlts.
, Denver Post of Monday says:

The Denver Post OF Monday says:
The death of Mrs. Christina Benkelman
| Saturday, Jan. 10, has caused general
sorrow among people OF all ages and has
/ proved a sad blow to the few remaining
pioneers Who have been her com panions
and friends during the trying years of
Colorado,s adolescence.
Mrs. Benkelman was the wife of John
G. Benl1elman OF 1853 California street
| pioneer, stockman and real estate dealer.
Death was the result of paralytic stroke
two years ago. Her husband and three
sons survive. The sons are George Ben
kleman, secretary the Colorado Packing
company; G A Benkeman, a commercial
traveller representing the same firm and
III. j. Benkelman who also holds po-
ition with the packing company.
Mrs. Benkelman was Miss Christina
burg Germany. She was born in 1881
and came to this country with her broth
er when she was but Is years of age. In
1850 Mr.. Benkelman made her acquaint-
ance at the home OF her brother in Ian
caster, Pa, and soon afterward they were
married. In 1862 they came Vest.
Omaha being the terminus OF the only
railroad line to the far West, the Ben
kelmans made their first stop there. Fall
ing in with ah old California acquaint-
nee, the two concluded to come to Colo
RADIO and go into the cattle business; so
they bought number OF COWS and calves
and, taking their families with them,
drove to Turkey Creek canon in this
state and established ranches there. Two
years laters the Bunkelnians removed to
Russell Gulch where Mr. Benkelman be-
gan business as butcher, in which he
was engaged for eight years, and through
the frugality and helpfulness OF his wife
was enabled to provide himself with the
nucleous of comfortable fortune
During their stay at Russell Gulch the
lives of the Bunkemans were frequently
in danger by raids of the Indians that
abounded in those days, and both Mr.aud
Mrs. Bunkelman have often related to
their friends thrilling tales of their per
lis and hardships they endured in those
early days.
In 1870 the family removed to Kiowa
forty miles south of Denver. There they
lived for many years conducting a fine
stock ranch. In 1893 the Benkelmans
came to Denver and here the family have
since resided.
