STATE CoNv|CTS
ARE TO BE ENTERTAINED AND IN.
STRUcTED.
BY THE PRISON ASSOCIATION
Course of Lectures to Be Provided
Will Hear Prominent Speakers and
Listen to Music.

Denver-For the education and edi-
ncation of the convicts in the Canon
City penitentiary and the reformatory
at Buena Vista, series of lectures
and entertainments has been prepared
by w. e. Collett, secretary of the Colo
rado Prison Association. This society,
of which Mr.. Collett. is the active head,
was organized to aid discharged prison
ers and has done great deal of valua-
BILE work. Its Office upon the third floor
of the capitol is visited daily by former
prisoners.
The course will run through March
and April. Those whose services have
been secured are Chancellor Henry A.
Buchtel of the University of Denver,
Rabbi w. s.. Friedman of Temple EN-
anuel, Rev. Frank T. Bayley. pastor of
Plymouth Congregational church: Mrs.
Scott Saxton and Mrs. Liska Stillman
Churchill, both well known readers of
Denver.
The entertainments will be given
mornings in the chapels of the two in
stitutions. Both Warden Cleghorn and
Warden butcher heartily approve of
the plan, and are giving Mr.. Collett
every assistance.
Chancellor Buchtel will begin the
course with lecture on "Theodore
Roosevelt" at Buena Vista. on the
morning of March 9th. month later
the chancellor will give the same lee
ture at the penitentiary.
Mrs. Churchill will present a varied
program of impersonations under the
general theme, THE Human Interest" :"
She will appear at the reformatory
March 18th, and at Canon City the day
following.
DR.. Bayley's topic will be "Some of
the Mysteries of Common Things" He
will speak to the reformatory boys
March 22d, and on the next day will
address the prisoners at Canon City.
Rabbi Friedman has chosen as his
message to the wayward men and boys,
Our Associates" His dates are at
Buena Vista March 26th, and at Canon
City March 27th.
In the program Mrs. Saxton will
have the assistance of several of her
pupils. She will give a general pro-
gram of impersonations and readings
at Buena Vista on April Goth. The next
day they will go to the penitentiary.
where, it is possible, a play will be put
on.
1t is Mr.. Collects intention to make
this course permanent feature of the
work of the association. Next year he
will endeavor to start it earlier, so that
the entertainments may be part of
the life at the two institutions during
the winter months.
Mr. and Mrs. Collett have just re-
turned from a trip to the penitentiary.
They gave audience to nearly 200 of
the prisoners, with view of learning
what their needs would be when they
were released on parole. assisdng them
in their efforts to be released, or assur-
ing them of the help of the association
at all times.

APPEAL FOR HORSES
OFFICIAL INSPECTION NEEDED
Abuse Altogether Too common-oId
Horses overworked-Theys Suffer
keeniy When III Treated.

No one will question that, were the
spirit or Christianity universally en-
bodied in everyday living, all oppres-
sion of the weak and all cruelty to the
lower animals would disappear. Ney.
ertheless, 1t is a fact that, while We
find In Proverbs the general statement
that the righteous man regardeth his
beast" there is not in the New Testa-
ment any special teaching or injunc-
ton on the subject, and 1t is only COM
paratively recently that it has come to
be thought worthy OF attention and or
ganized effort, directed to the preven-
tlon OF the constant and shocking
cruelty which for centuries had gone
on unheeded. At an earlier period than
the beginning of our era, the great
teacher, Buddha, in his command
ments to his disciples, laid down the
principle that all life was sacred, and
that the rule of kindness was to be ex-
tended to its lowest manifestation.
While we are yet, as a people, far
In the rear of this position, much has
been done through societies for the
prevention of cruelty to animals and
for the regulation of vivisection to put
stop to the worst of the suffering
which was SO common in former
yedlS he brutal ABUSE OF OVerDur-
dened animals in the public streets Is
no longer seen, but great deal still
goes on painful to the sensibilities of
the observant and of nature that
should be prohibited. Horses that
ought to have been retired from active
service long ago, or put out of exist
ence painlessly, are propped up be-
tween the thills Of dilapidated carts
and forced to totter along the streets
with loads far out of proportion to their
strength; poor blind animals, with all
the apprehension and distress that q
human being would experience SINH
larly situated, are driven about in tho
crowded tnoroughfares, regardless Of
the dumb agony they must experience,
and it is not uncommon to see drivers
of vehicles lash their horses furiously
without justification or to any good
purpose, in way that makes one wish
the outraged animals could kick their
assailants off the boxes. 1t is not nee
essary to accept the doubtless some
what fanciful estimate of Seton
Thompson in regard to the quite hu-
man intelligence and susceptibilities Of
the lower animals in order to believe
that they suffer keenly, realize when
they are well or ill-kept, resent cruelty
and injustice, and respond to friendli-
ness and kindness.

RHEUMATIC PAINS
Disappear When DR.. Williams Pink
Pills Purify the Blood and
Heal Inflamed Tissues

Rheumatism is a disease Of the blood,
ca-sed by the failure of the body to cast
off certain poisons. External applica-
tions are of use only in securing tempo
rary relief from pain-the cure for
rheumatism lies i'll purifying and en-
riching the blood.
Mrs. Frederick Brown, of 40 Sumpter
street, Sandy Hill, NY, was a sufferer
from inf1ammutory rheumatism from
the time she was sixteen. She says !:
cit first appeared in my knee Joints,
then i'll my hips and waist. 1t became
regular thing that would be laid ur
all winter. The rheumatism affected
mostly my hands, hips, feet and
shoulders. My hands were all puffed
up and my feet became deformed.
lost my appetite, couldn't sleep and
sometimes l was compelled to cry out,
the pain was so intense.
g For several winters / was under the
doctors care and while his medicine re.
lieved the pain for n little while there
| seemed no prospect for permanent
cure. was confined to my bed, off and
on, for weeks Mt time. My limbs
swelled dreadfully at times and l was
reduced almost to nothing
g In the spring of 1904, upon the ad.
vice of friend. I began to use DR..
Williams Pink Pills. At that time
wasn't able to do anything and could
barely eat enough to keep alive. l felt
change for the better i'll about month.
| began to eat heartily and l suffered
less pain. OF course l kept OH the
| treatment, using care i'll my diet, and
i'll about three months 1 was cured I
am entirely well today and do all my
own work"
DIR. Williams Pink Pills cured Mrs.
Brown by driving the rheumatic poisons
ont of her blood. But you must get the
genuine DIR. Williams Pink Pills, sold
by all druggists and by the DR. Williams

Liquor Dealers ornanize.

Denver.-Retail liquor dealers of Col
orado TO tn enumber OF 150, met at the
Adams hotel Wednesday, and effected
an organization which they expect will
result in much good generally. Ac-
oording to Secretary G. V. Richards,
'it is an organization to elevate the
business. Men will drink liquor and
1t is our business to see that only de
cent men sell it; that people who drink
get pure liquor and that those who deal
in doped' drinks are run ont of the
business Nearly every town in the
state was represented. A banquet was
cid in the evening.

AUDITORIUM SITE.
Committee of Denver City Council
Agrees on Location.

Denver.-The joint committee OF the
City Council yesterday recommended
TO the Council and the mayor the
ground on the west side of Fourteenth
street, between Curtis and Champa
streets, as site for the proposed au-
ditorium. The price to the city is
$105,000, which would leave $295, 900
for building. A majority of the Coun-
Gil has signified its willingness to
adopt the recommendation AS the Sc
lection narrowed to the one site, there
is little else to be done, although the
council and the mayor favored going
further up town If property at rea-
sonable rate could be had, which was
not possible, however.
A number of property owners inter
esated in property near nj hand are
understood to have gone to the rescue
in the case of the site recommended
and reduced the price to the figure
