door as an emblem that soul has passed
from death unto life. Only those living on
the physical plane alone can remain pessi-
mistic as to the future state.
While this service is intended as me-
mortal in honor of our absent brothers, it
ought to serve as lesson to the living. Let
us do every act in life as if it were the last,

ADDRESS OF HERMAN STRAUSS.

We are assembled to-day to commune
with the spirits of those of our members
who, during the past year, have crossed the
threshold leading towards a perfect state
of spiritual development. By this express
sion of loyalty we prove that the bonds
uniting us reach beyond the tomb Death,
enthroned for centuries the king of ter
ror, is now often hailed as an emancipation,
by releasing the soul from habitation no
longer suitable as a dwelling place. The
belief in immortality has taken possession
of all civilized races. 1t has been the dream
of the poet, the hope of the sorrowing and
the faith of the religious devotee. Prophets
and seers have seen the gates ajar, and en-
riched us with their discovery. Plato, the
Athenian philosopher, said: 'The soul is
everything" followed by Emerson twenty
five centuries later: "The soul knoweth all
things" Strangely enough, the same
thought should impress itself on their re-
spective minds. The late Henry Ward
Beecher requested, when he died, to place
no GRAPE the sign of gloom, on the house,

terms embrace the living Nature is conde
scendingly grand in her comfort. The dead
live. We commune to-day with our broth
ers. We see them in their youthful and
manly endeavors, for while time sprinkles
it's white frost upon us, our brothers never
grow old. Youth to them is perennial. Age
does not wither them, nor does time palsy
their hands The mighty struggle OF life
exempts them from the marks of turmoil;
from the pangs of sorrow and from the
deeply chiseled lines of grief, which to us,
their survivors, mark us as it were in mock
cry Whether the future shall be kind to
us or harsh in it's treatment; If our lot be
that of joyous fame or we be given COM
fort that the accumulation of wealth might
bring or on the other hand, whether we
drink the dregs of despair, of anguish or OF
sorrow we remember the departed as they
were. Our brothers, though away from us,
still live, and in our memories we accord
them the crown of victory. They have won
as against us in the great race of eternity.
Our brothers retreated with the aspect
of victories, and though they succumbed
they were the conquerors The sun OF each
went down at noon, but it sank amid the
splendors of an eternal dawn.
Good stout hearts-Ah, me. how many?
Six were stilled within the past twelve
months and to us who remain behind is left
this day of memories. Every year in the
heights of symphony of low, and life there
comes a pause, and through the silence we
hear the lonely pipe of death. Year after
year those of in the spirit of reminis
cence, in sweetly sad Renaissance, in wan
dering among the graves of the departed,
under the boughs of the weeping willow, of
the pine and of the cedar see black
yelled figures stealing through the morning
to pay another and yet another tribute of
love to their dead. 1t is the grief-stricken
widow, heartbroken mother, but it is not
this grief that is the end of all. The MUIR
mur of the widow, the sob of the mother,
becomes song. of triumph, for our dead
brothers still live for and bid us think
of life, not of death.

B'nai Birth Memorial Services

Denver Lodge III, 1. o. B. b., which
numbers over 400 members, held mem
orial services last Sunday morning.
President Joseph S. Jaffa and Brother
Herman Strauss delivered the addresses.
Mr.. Jaffa spoke in part as follows:
Brethren-Once more in the cycle OF
time; once more in the absorbing endeavors
of existence, we pause for a moment to pay
tribute of respect to the departed United
in brotherhood, we are assembled here upon
this solemn occasion to cOmmingle our feel
ings of love and honor to those who but
year ago were of u.s. Their memories
though still living and ever to live as long
as thought shall be our heritage.
Five brothers, all in the full bloom and
sweetness of young manhood, and another,
crowned with the gories of life's struggle,
whose mortality at this moment awaits our
final escort, have all entered the mystic
ante-room, and from there have been ush-
cred into the lodge of eternity.
Theirs mostly had been lives OF JOY
yet from joy and happiness to pain and sor-
row is but step; mere tremor in the
gradation of the scale of life; fate was kind
to them; it held back the hand which might
have pointed the way from the springt1me
of life which their visions followed to the
direction of a vista of heartbreaking and
saddened gloom; they knew only the
warmth of manhood's friendships; some of
them had known the bliss of the admira-
ton and the throb of young wife's heart,
beating in unison of encouragement with
their own ambitions; they, too, had known
the meaning of the ecstatic love for the in
fant babe and the joys OF the evening of
frolc with a child of tender years. 1t was
not their lot to meet shipwreck or to know
the blights of broken plans, or to- experience
the sting of baffled ambitions or to suffer
the knowledge of the sundering of warm
friendships and tender affections. Death
beckoned. They saw and they followed,
and, meeting death, they solved it's mystic
ries-mysteries only for us, but not for
them. The crushing doubt that oft-times
agitates the mind; that encourages the
spirit of unrest, they have solved; they know
of the radiant sunrise with unimaginable
splendor, peering above a celestial horizon;
they know of the strong, hopeful and force
full energies finding instant exercise; they
knew of the passions, ambitions and affec-
tions that sway and impel and are salts
fed
AS time progresses and with it the re-
currence of this sacred day, the dead come
back to live with once more. We see
them now once we saw them on this
earth. They are the same bright figures or
their counterparts that come also before our
eyes and when I speak of those who were
my brothers, the same words describe yours.
On this day we still meet in the closest tie
which is possible between men, a tie which
a common ambition has made indissoluble
for better, for worse When we meet thus,
when we do honor to the dead, we also in

Works Of Composer Are Played by

Maurice Leon Driver, pianist and
composer, played from his own works
at Steinway Hall last evening. Mr..
Driver proved the possession of ex-
cellent technique and a sense of the
picturesque. He is as good an ex-
ponent Of the merely tuneful side of
piano playing as has appeared here
in some time. His performance, at
times brilliant, has an even excellence
all through that pleased without
greatly exciting his auditors The
compositions were of the class rather
to while away the evening than to
move the emotions. Some of them
were very clever in conceit, especially
The Swallows" A gavotte was char
acteristic. An etude in D fat gave
opportunity for the display of Mr..
Drivers skill as a performer and also
furnished a satisfactory rest of his
cantabile playing, which is his strong
point. Altogether the recital made a
very favorable impression on a large
audience.

overf1owed its banks last fall and
caused damage to the Santa Fe Rail-
road estimated at $500, 900, is rising
rapidly and grave fears are entertain
ed that the disaster may be repeated.
Some sections of the road recently
repaired were damaged to-day by the
overfiowing Of the river.

Trip to San Jose With Mrs.
Baxter Leads to Charges
Preferred by Husband
DENIES ACCUSATIONS
Says Woman Went With
Him of Her Own Accord
and That He Is Not Guilty

DR.. Herbert T. Thornburgh. for whom
Charles Baxter swore out warrants OF
arrest several days ago on charges OF
forgery and threats against life, was
arrested last night by Detective Tom
Gibson and is detained at the City
Prison with bail fixed at $4,000 for each
offense.
Baxters at their fiat, 1434 Hyde street.
During that time, Baxter alleges,
Thornburgh tried to wreck his home
by winning the affections Of Mrs. Bax-
ter. Failing In his attempt, the hus-
band alleges, Thornburgh, by means
of threats, induced Mrs Baxter to ac-
company him to San Jose. She re-
turned home to her husband the next
afternoon.
It is also alleged by Baxter that
Thornburgh forged his name to checks
and secured money on them.
When seen last night at the police
station Thornburgh had the following
to say:
These charges arc an rot It is true
that Baxter's wife went with me to San
Jose, but she went there Of her own
accord and I think she will so state at
the time Of the trial. At the present
time have little to say. I worked for
Baxter who. by the way, Is not physi-
clan, although he titles himself doctor.
I have been very friendly with his wife
for some time. When my attorney
gives me permission I will talk. but
not until then.
THE checks they allege are forgerfes
were drawn by me with the permission
Of the office and Of Baxter. The latter
told me that II ever I got off on little
spree and needed any money could
use his name and accordingly did so. !"
