little later took up his home on the
Fountain Qulbouillie river, fifteen
miles north OF Pueblo. There he re-

to Kansas, staying in that state for
two and half years and then returning
to good old Colorado. Three years at

Carnegie Public Library.

Grand Junction holds pre-eminence
for being the first city in the state to
receive gift for public library from
Andrew Carnegie. The building was
erected in 1901 at cost of $4,000, and
was dedicated July 25th, 1901, 1. N.
Bunting, editor of The Daily Senti-
mel, delivered the dedicatorial ad-
dress. With the close of the program
ended one of the small historical stor-
les told of the progress of the city and
began the usefulness and influence for
good of one of the institutions of the
city of which all her citizens may
we'll be proud.
The building has block to itself
The lot is 75xlS0 feet, giving ample
room for extension when needed. The
building is 32x45 feet and contains a
lending room. reading room, with
an alcove for magazine and reference
books. an office and back hall The
portico leads into vestibule. just in
side of which is placed fine bronze
tablet with the inscription ''This
building is the gift of Andrew Carne-
gie''.
Our public library stands as pro-
duct of the efforts of the Woman's
club, which began the work of estab-
fishing library for the city in 1896,
and never ceased its earnest and un-
tiring work until it was turned over
to the city i'll May. 1901. since which
time the library has been supported

that many strive for i'll vain. Mr..
Delaplain's business is real estate,
insurance and loans. In all three
branches he gets a goodly share of
the patronage of the public. People
like to go to him as a real estate man
because whatever he says about a
property may be relied upon. He is
agent for many strong insurance COM
panies and anyone seeking protection
of this character may consult him
profitably His business is located
on Fourth street i'll the Canon block
NJ o. Delaplain was born in the
state of Iowa in 1858 For five years
he was telegraph operator and station

1900 and 1901, box of books was do
mated to the travelling library and
named for the Woman's Club of
Grand Junction. A tax was paid each
year to help sustain this state work.
The officers of the State Federation
have lavished much praise upon the
Grand Junction Club. saying that they
consider it one of the foremost clubs
in Colorado. Mrs. A. r. Wadsworth
served for two years as treasurer of
the State Federation. She is now one
of the district presidents of which
there are four in the Federation.
Mrs. j. G.. Cropsey served for two
years on the music committee of the
State Federation. and Mrs. E. P.
Chester on the euducational commit
tee of the same.
The Woman's club has broadened it's
scope and widened its purpose until
now it takes in any woman of good
moral standing who wishes to take ad-
vantage of the study; and it aims to
do the greatest good to the greatest
number. It's study has covered lite
rature, history, science, art, econo-
mics and domestic science. Several
papers have been sent each year to the
reciprocity bureau to assist in the
work of other clubs.
The present officers of the Woman S
club are: Mrs. E. p. Chester, presi-
dent; Mrs a. G. Newton, vice presi-
dent; Mrs. j. G.. Cropsev, secretary !;
Mrs W. f. White, corresponding
secretary; Mrs. J. II. Ramey. treas
urer; and Mrs. K. b. Wilson, press
correspondent. The membership linn

books show an enrolment at present
of over one hundred ladies.
Several smaller charitable under
takings have been accomplished by
this organization 1t stands ever ready
to lend helping hand to any altruis-
tic work that it may consider within
its scope. And who shall say that
the Woman's club is not power for
good in the community? The origi-
nal small study clubs that were the
forerunners of the present work were
narrow and selfish in measure, and
by their very exclusiveness engender-
ed strife. The work now stands as
an exponent of woman's desire and
ability to lend helping hand.

THE WOMAN'S CLUB.

The Woman's club of Grand Juno

1895. The motto of the club indicat-
ed the purposes being the mutual i'm
provement and culture of its members.
The membership was limited to twen-
ty-five and was seldom if ever full.
The ladies soon became dissatisfied
with the meeting for personal profit
alone. Seeing great general need
for public library in this city they
set their hearts IN establishing one
here. The first year they purchased
reference books for the club rooms and
used them as nucleus to build upon.
Several donations of books were made
by private parties also.
During the second and third years,
repeated entertainments were given
TO raise money to purchase books /;
and library tickets were sold to the
members at 81 90 apiece which entitl-
ed them to the privileges of drawing
books from few shelves containing
from one hundred to two hundred vol
umes. The effort to establish a Ii
brary was made the practical work
of the club for three years At the
end of this time the Carnegie library
was built and given as present to
the city, This gift was secured by

the hungry crowd.
Miss Gladys Langdon acted as God
dess of Liberty and was elaborately
dressed, her part on the program being
most gracefully performed The pro-
ceeds of the occasion which amounted
