THE GREAT COLORADO cHAU-
TAUQUA.

The Colorado Chautaudua is an in
stitution whose name has become
known in every part of the South and
West. It's grounds are located on the
Colorado q Southern railway, at the
edge OF Boulder. The Chautauuua
opens July 4th, each year, and contin-
ues for nve weeks. The greatest lee
turers, educators, entertainers and mu-
sicians of America appear upon the
platform.
The location of the Chautauqua is
unsurpassed for beauty and healthful-
ness. Imagine a table land covering
300 acres on the eastern side of a vast
mountain chain, whose SUBMITS are
tipped with everlasting snow. On the
right nature has formed mighty
chasm, whose recesses are lost in the
dome of the continent. On the left. a
mile away and 500 feet below, nestles
the loveliest little city in America. In
front is spread out mighty plain ex-
tending away toward the boundless
prairies. AT the foot of the level mesa
on which the surprised and delighted
beholder stands, is an enchanting val
ley, whose carpet of emerald extends
as far as the eye can reach to the
north, and from which arise the sounds
of the farm, the gentle lowing of cattle,
the faint bark of dog or the distant
rumble OF train of cars, slowly
threading its way toward the limitless
horizon. The secene is one of entranc-
ing beauty. 1t lulls to restful medita-
tion, and as the eye drinks in the in
finite softness of mountain and plain,
and the physical senses absorb the
balmy sweetness of the atmosphere,
- Nir-if ic
oration of the Mighty Power which Gre
ated the surprising vision.
Most Chautauquans are students;
hence, the Chautauqua Summer
School. An effort is made to meet as
nearly as possible all the demands of
those in attendance. The institution
is of a popular character, interesting
and practical, thorough and progress
sive. The instructors are all men and
women of recognized standing who
lend inspiration to those who attend
their classes The work should appeal
very strongly to teachers who are anX-
ious to have an outing and at the same
time feel they must pursue a definite
line of study to better fit them for
their next years work. To them are
offered opportunities for review of the
common branches, for work in psy-
chology and pedagogy, in primary
methods, in literature, and many other
branches of study. Others will find
real delight and relaxation in the
Woman's Council, the literary and art
lectures and other classes told of in
this announcement.
A copy of the general announce
ment containing all the details of this
seasons session will be forwarded on
request by 7. e. Fisher, general pas
senger agent Colorado & Southern

did over his white opponents is
sufficient proof that his merit was
superior.
This victory is not only a credit
and honor to the young man, but
to the race it adds another bright
star to the vocabulary of Negro
genius. The talent possessed by
Mr.. Morris is a natural inherit.
ance, as his mother, Mrs. Esther
Morris, is endowed with no little
amount of high cultured literary
talent. He is the grandson of the
Rev. j. III. Hubbard, the present
Presiding Elder of the Denver
district of the A. NJ. E. church,
and who.is one of the best known
aud most efficient workers in the
A. M. E. connection.
All honor to Mr.. Morris and we
join with his innumerable friends
in extending to him the glad hand
of congratulations on his we'll
earned victory. AS we have said
before, his good manners ahd his
energies of thrift coupled with that
of his excellent literary talent are
bound to make for him a mark
that the race should take pride to
follow as an example.

mention of the fact that Carsie B.
Morris of this city, would on Mon

The contest is over and it is with

Carsie captured first prize-the
Governors Medal which is made
of gold. Mr.. Morris graduated in
June in 3-year Draftmans course
