Denver-W. Z. Collett, general sec
rotary of the Colorado Prison Asso-
citation. was reelected at the meeting
and third annual banquet Of the associ-
alton. July 23d. Following is the re-
port for the past year:
During the first quarter of this
year ia applicants for aid were AS
sisted as compared with fifty-nine for
tho first quarter of 1907, and during
the second quarter eighty-four We're
aided. as compared with forty-seven
for the second quarter Of 1907; or 19S
for the first half of 1903. as compared
with log for the first half of 1907.
''of this 1873, forty-six were from the
penitentiary, thirty-three from the
state reformatory. 1903 were from coun-
ty jails and fourteen were Out-of-works.
or members of the families of men
who are in prison.
ut may be interesting to note that
five of the above had also been in the
county hospital; two were from the
Weld county jail. five were from the
Pueblo county Jail. two were from the
Otero county Jail. and one from the
jail of Teller county; four were from
the state prisons of Nebraska, Mime
sofa. Texas and Wyoming, while fifth
had served three terms in the govern
ment prison al Rotterdam. Holland.
Nearly all Of the above were fur
nished with employment, and many
with clothing. Very few of them have
had to apply for assistance again.
While the number CT applicants for
aid during the first six months OF the
present year have increased 81 per
cent, as compared with the first six
months of last year. the income TO the
work has decreased over per cent.
and the expenses of the work, outside
of salaries. has increased about As per
cent. The result is that the treasury
is nearly $500 below its figures of less
than year ago Not that our friends
have not stood by us. but the greatly
increased number of applicants for aid
with the scarcity of employment has
made 1t impossible for the general sec
rotary to devote but trifle OF his
time to the business matters of the as
ISOLATION.
The field secretary. r. A. Hoffman,
NJ. A., has been diligent in his labors,
visiting twenty-four towns in the first

half of the year have increased over s
per cent as compared with the first

GOLDEN WEDDING LETTERS.
FROM REV G. T. LINSLEY.

Oct 8, 'O8. My dear MT Johnson: read in The Bee last week that you and Mrs John son are to celebrate your golden wei- ding on Saturday. It gives Mrs Lins- ley and myself very great pleasure to send you and Mrs Johnson our very heary congratulations on thls occasion. It is not given to many to have the privilege of enjoying fifty years of married life together and l am very sure that you both realize that
 It is your privilege also to look back upon a half century of happiness, and upon life marked with many bless ings in home and family life.
 It is our privilege, Mrs Linsley's and mine, to recall twelve years of happy association with you personally and in the relation of pastor and people, and to be able for eighteen, years to count you, and be counted among your friends.
 We give you our cordial greetings and our best wishes for more years of health and happiness and blessing. Please present our remembrances to all the members of your family and to your assembled friends on Saturday.
 Cordially yours,

 Oct. 10, 1908.
 My dear MT and Mrs Johnson; Fol- lowing your characteristic hospitality, you have invited "everybody" to the golden wedding; and, like the whoso- evers of the Gospel, feel the welcome IS cordial enough and wide enough to include those who, with Mrs Barker and myself, are outside the pale of Grace. 1 indeed wish it were possible for us to run down on a morning train and take our part with the happy throng of all ages who, all day long, will wend their way over the Newtown pike to the old Johnson homestead, to pay their respects anc express their hearty feliciations on the crown of hearty joys that has come to you. If I could get firm grip on your hand, I think my speech would run some what in this way: This is an occasion that comes to but few; and you de- serve all the glory and honor that your friends can make known in their fee ble attempts to wish you well; four stalwart sons grown into strong man hood, one of them with the chaplet of distinguished honors on his brow and all of them fulfilling a mans part in life's tug and strain, and you your selves, though, as you once said to me, living on borrowed time, enjoying the fruition of life's hopes and plans Tn the peace that is won from work well accomplished, what could an angel more, aye what even could immortal!
 I often think, Brother Johnson, when the moments of meditation come Tn twilight's quiet hour, of the pleasant associations we had in so many ways, our efforts to do something to lift the school system of the old town upon a higher plane, our struggles through many a long month to make New . towns Bi-centennial the pride of the place and the despair of surrounding towns land we did it too, didn't wei and, last but ah not least, the Mems Club, with it's never to be forgotten reception to Ebenezer J. Hill and its good-natured sparring with the weapon of words, all these, and many more, fleeting shadows out of the by gone come trooping before me, and make
