SACRIFICE OF
THE. SERVICE.

In connection with the terrible
accident on board the battleship
Georgia, by which nearly dozen
men lost their lives and half score
of othets were injured, no picture
stands out more pathetically unfor-
getable than that of Admiral Good
rich and his wife at the death bed
of their third ano last son, all given
to the service of their country. The
first had lost his life at San Juan,
the second had died in the army.
When, in the war with Spain, the
word came to Captain Capron that
his only son lay dead in another
part Of the field, he went, as sooS
as duty permitted, to the spot
where the body lay, lifted tho Nag
which covered the face, looked
long upon it, and with the words
"Well done, my boy!" turned back
10 his battery.
Parents who enjoy the blessing OF
a home in which all their children
are gathered, or to which they re-
turn at frequent intervals, are hard
ly capable of understanding the
anxiety and heartache which enter
so commonly into the lives OF army
and navy parents, even in times of
peace.
The Service confers Its distinc
tons and offers its compensations,
but it also exacts its sacrifices.
There is always the experience OF
varied and trying climates; there
are long absences and frequent sep
arations; and more often. perhaps,
than is supposed, there is sudden
and great danger.
The quiet dignity, the uncom-
planning fortitude with which these
things are borne are not among the
least admirable qualities of thost
who compose that Service whose
duty is not primarily to command,
but really to serve.

TO MINE COAL ONLY

Union Pacific VIII Handle No More
Fuel For Public Sale After May L.

Ten million dollars worth of coal
properties owned by the Union Pa
cific in Colorado, Wyoming and 9TH
er states are to be operated after
May 1 only as far as necessary Tor
the roads own fuel requirements.
The entire output OF the mines will be
that date and none of its coal will be
for sale.
Instead of disposing of its I'M
mense coal properties, as the other
railroads are doing, the company
states that it construes the law to
mean that n railroad cannot sell
commodities which it is engaged in
transporting in competition with its
own customers, but that the law
does not prevent a railroad from
owning such commodities aid haul
ing them for its own use.
The decision will mean the open
ing of an immense territory for the
independent coal operators, who
have heretofore been supplied by
the Union Pacific. The northwest
ern territory as far as the Pacific
coast has been a heavy buyer for
years of the output of the Wy
oming mines and that market VII

POPULAR LOCAL PASTOR
H0N0RED BY A DEGREE
fieasant Surprise on Christmas
Morning For Rev. Forsyth, Pas
tor OF the Methodist Church
of Grand Jnuction.

One OF the biggest and pleasantest
surprises perpetrated ON any loca
citizen on Christmas day was one
that was planned by Gov. Henry A
Buchtel on Rev. d. d. Forsyth. pas.
tor of the Methodist church of this
city, and perpetrated by order of the
governor yesterday in a most sue.
cessful manner.
When Rev. d. d. Forsyth ar.nounc-
ed last Sunday at his services that
sunrise prayer meeting would be
held at his church on Christmas
morning he little dreamed that the
occasion would be made doubly mem
orable and happy for him, but such
was the case.
At the impressive prayer service.
which was attended by a large num-
Der of members of the church. at
an opportuhe moment Senator Horace
I. DeLoLg secured the attention of
Rev. Forsyth and informed him that
the Denver University, the great ed
ucational institution of the capital
city of which Gov. Henry A. Buchtel
is the head as chancellor, had decid-
ed to confer upon Rev. Forsyth the
degree of doctor of divinity.
At the same moment Rev. For
syth was handed a letter, a copy OF
which follows:
Denver. Dee. 21st, 1907.
Rev. d. d. Forsyth,
Grand Jnuction, Colo.
My Dear Brother: Tho members
of the faculty of the College of Lib
eral Arts of the University of Den
yer, by unanimous vote, have rec
commended you to the board of trust
ees for the degree of doctor OF dl-
vihity to be conferred at our com
menoement, June II, 1908. The ac-
tion of the board OF trustees is 4
pure formality. The fundamental
matter is this action of the faculty
which l am now most happy to report
to you. Kindly let me know thar
you will be pleased to accept the de
gree of doctor of divinity from the
University of Denver on the nth OF
June, 1908.
| am sending this letter to YOU by
hand of Senator Delong and other
officers of the church in Grand June
tion. | want them to bring this in
formation to you on Christmas morn
ilg. This is your Christmas pres
ent from the University OF Denver
and from me, your appreeiative
friend and brother.
Kindly fill out the enclosed blank
and return to me.
Yours in great love.
Henry A. Buchtel.
To say that Rev. Forsyth was sur
prlsed and pleased is expressing 1t
lightly. His brief remarks in ac-
ceptance of the letter were sincere
and feelingly made.
1t is an honor that is not to be re-
garded lightly but on the other hand
Is to be highly priced. Rev. For
syth richly deserves the degree and
will wear it worthily. His friends
are offering their congratulations to
the popular and able pastor.

better with more dispatch, and at less

need Of such a plant in connection with

castings of all classes could be made

Of $4,000 be appropriated for the foun-
