A PLEASANT EVENING
Members of the Choir Guild and
Members of the Church En-
joy Themselves at the
Rectory Last Night

The joint business and social meet
ing held last night at the guild room
of St Matthews church under the
auspices of the choir guild of the
church was one of the most enjoyable
gatherings the church membership
has enjoyed in long time.
President ]. C. Myers. of the choir
guild. had charge of the arrange
ments for the evenings pleasure and
the business affairs and was con
gratulater by all present on the sue
cess of the meeting
Perhaps the most important rea-
son for the gathering last night was
the matter of deciding whether or not
the church should secure the services
of a choir leader during the coming
year. 1t was decided by a large vote
The church should retain the servicet
that leader should be employed
and Mrs. George F. Greer who has
been singing at St Matthews church
for some weeks to the delight of the
congregations, has been employed as
leader of the choir and there is nc
doubt but what the membership made
good and very excellent selection
as Mrs Greer possesses a charm
ing voice and is a musical director OF
extraordinary ability.
Later in the evening light refresh
ments were served and an hour spent
in a most delightful social way.
There was a large number of the
church members as well as members
of the choir present.

Vice President c. II. Schlacks and
Chief Engineer L. ]. Yard of the
Denver and Rio Grande, passed
throuh the city yesterday en- route
to Denver after a tour of inspection
over the line in Utah to Salt Lake
City. While in Salt Lake they were
in conference with General Superin-
tendent A. +. Welby. A report from
Salt Lake states that these officials
are spending much of their time in
Salt Lake attending to preparations
for the commencement of improve
ments there and are travelling back
and forth over the lines to study the
needs and demands made upon the
Rio Grande by the steady increase of
all traffic.
The passenger business has never
been as heavy as 1t is now and all
this summer and fail. AS a result
much work is necessitated along the
lines between Salt Lake and Den
yer. Among the many improvements
proposed for through travel is the
installation of sidings at various
points. These will serve a good
purpose in eliminating blockades and
congestions. over twice as many
trains are moving east and west over
the Rio Grande tracks at the present
tame. Sidings placed at different
points along the line will permit OF
through trains to move ahead safely
without waiting for delayed trains at
passing points. The officials say this
portion of the work is too new to-
be mapped out in detail. Soldier
Summit, one of the passing points
on the Rio Grande is to be double
tracked for a distance of seven miles.
This is but one of the points select
ed for double tracking or sidings.
This work will be started as soon az
definite plans have been completed.

SUNSHINE AND SHADOW
IN nEMORIAh

We loved, as only true hearts can,
From youth womanhood and man;
We loved until the children came
Aye! brighter glowed the ruddy flame
That burned within my heaving breast
As my fond children lay
Upon her BOSOM fair and white
Which oft had held my head at night
When toll and care had filled the day
And kept me- from her side, away
loved when anguish tore my breast
And drove from my peace and rest;
loved aye all that can love
Or angels, in the skies above
loved her as the long dark night
Hid from her vision all things bright
love her st-though left alone,
For love sings in sweeter tone,
song that only those may hear
Whoes love is perfumed with tear.

REBELS ATTACK YANKEES.
Cuban Insurgents Take Live Stock
From American Estates.

Havana, Aug. 31.-Reports received
from Manicaragua, in the tobacco dis
trict of Santa Clara province, show
that there is great alarm among the
people there, who are fleeing from the
cities on account of the growth of the
fnsurgent forces Insurrectionists are
securing the country and seizing all
the horses and cattle that can be
found. At first the insurgents did not
interfere with American property, but
later all animals were taken from the
plantations of Kaffenburgh & Sons of
Boston and the Manicaragua Tobacco
company of Boston.
The Constancia Sugar company, an
American corporation, having a plan
fation near Cienfuegos, has filed a
claim against the government for
damages for live stock taken and prop
erty injured The state department
has conferred with Consul General
Steinhart regarding the matter.
A fight took place at Calabazar, Ha-
vana province, between fifty insurgents
and fifteen rural guards, with the re-
suit that the latter retreated with one
man wounded.
An engagement between insurgents
and government troops is reported to
have occurred near Artemisa, prov
fnce of Pinar del Rio, near the Ha-
vana border. The result is not known.

Westbury, N. Y, Aug. 31.-A second
attempt was made by the automobile
burglars who have been terrorizing
Long Island for a month to break into
the mansion of William G. Parks, a
millionaire resident of this place.
Less than week ago the same band
made an effort to rob the house, but
they were frightened away by the
guards employed by Mr. Parks. The
guards again discovered the men at
work, and battle followed, in which
many shots were exchanged.
The guards found the marauders
trying to enter by rear window and
without a word opened fire on them.
The robbers dashed off toward the
road, where their machine was wait,
ing, pursued by the guards.
No one was struck by the bullets, so
far as could be learned, and the ma
chine, which bore no lights, sped 81
lently away toward Mineola.
Later in the morning the robbers
again were seen, this time by Mrs.
Townsend Albertson. the wife of a
wealthy farmer who lives on the West
bury road, a mile or so from the Parks
estate.

Government Determines to Enforce
"Open Shop" Principle.
Washington, Aug. 31-The principle
of the open shop will be applied to the
postal service, according to a decision
reached at a conference between Post
master Fred A. Busse of Chicago and
Acting Postmaster General Hitchcock
and Second Assistant Postmaster Gen
eral Shallenberger.
The determination was reached, how
ever, that so long as the postal clerks
or other postoffice employees conform
to the rules and regulations of the Of
fee and do not attempt to coerce or in
any way molest those who do not en-
ter the union there would be no objec-
tion to the employees affiliating with
labor organizations. 1t was expressly
stated that the department would af-
ford the fullest protection to those who
for reasons of their own do not see fit
to join the union
