Adopted by Rising Vote.

AS Mr.. Mccarthy finished reading the
paper motion to accept the memoir was
adopted by a rising vote.
The question of holding a meeting in
the future, when addresses upon the life
of the late president of the association
may be heard, was discussed at some
length by the members after Mr. Reiss
had brought the matter to their atten-
ton. 1t was finally decided to hold such
a meeting later. The date was not Sc
lected, though 1t was stated it will prob
ably be held early in March.
In discussing the question of the attend
ance of the members of the association
at the funeral Mr.. Ragan said he was of
the opinion that part of the church
should be apportioned to the members
exclusively. Mr.. Reiss then moved that
the members of the association attend the
funeral in a body, and the motion pre-
vailed. Mr.. Matthew Trimble suggested
that the association choose two of the ac-
tive pallbearers for the funeral, and Mr..
Raglan placed the matter before the asso-
citation for action. By a rising vote he
was authorized to select two pallbearers,
and he chose DR.. Benjamin w. Sunny
and Mr.. John Il. CLANCY.
Mr.. Trimble then said he was author
lied to state that a special place will be
set aside for the seating of the members
of the association in the church. He also
asked that the two pallbearers selected be
directed to report at the Scottish Rite
Cathedral. 1907 G street. at noon Monday
Funeral Arrangements.
IL was suggested by Mr.. Albion X. Par
ris that as weather conditions at the pres
ent time are against older men attending
the services at the grave he thought the
best plan would be for the members of
the association to meet in the basement
of the Church of the Ascension before
the funeral. and go into the main audi
forum of the edifce in body
THE respect We show at the services
at the church." he said is about all we
can expecSto do. 1t may not be all that
We desire 10 show"
The question was then taken I'D, and
1 after a short discussion II was decided
that sixteen members OF the association
shall go to the grave in special carriages
These members will be chosen from those
in attendance at the funeral, according to
an announcement made later by Vice
President Raglan. At this point Mr.
Thomas w. Smith asked to have the me-
moir adopted earlier in the evening read
again, and Mr.. Mccarthy read the paper
the second time. MIR. Smith explained
that he came in late and desired to have
his vote recorded for the adoption of the
sentiments expressed. Mai George a.
Armes also expressed his desire TO have

Denver is noted for its hotels
especially for the Albany, which is
so progressive ana up-to date in its
management that new features are con

and increase its facilities for caring
for them. Despite It's constant crowds,
there is always an air of spaciousness
and comfort about it,
The latest thing at the Albany, In
which mine hosts" Sam f. Dutton
and MIR Eppstem, take particular pride,
is remodeled and rechristened dining
room, THE Italian Garden near the
Seventeenth street entrance, just back
of the office.
Among the attractions Of this beau.

walls covered with profusely blossomcd
English Rambler rose vines and its
wealth of ferns. palms and shrubs IN
ornamental vases. Among its shrubs
are English box trees, imported from
Belgium. and a rare species Of ever
green from northern Russia. Large
columns are draped with vines and
ornamentad with foliage plants, Hang

In the center of the Italian Garden
is a brilliant electric fountain sur
mounted by beautiful female statue.

sent TO the market and the work Is also done on
the wharves. Here are ranged hundreds OF
tables. exposed to the bright sunlight The
cleansed fish are piled mp In such u manner that
the warm rays get n most admirable chance at
them. This summer has been so hot that tho
fishermen have had great difficulty In drying Out
the cod. Instead Of taking the water out In Tho
gradual normal manner. the sun has been SO
fierce that It baked the fsh, and In this manner
many OF them were cooked so hard ON the out

But this is a raro occurrence for under urdi

manner far more satisfactory than could any
agency Of mans production.
From the open'air drying tables the fish are
shifted 10 the boxing and packing establishments
which are also located along the water front and
then they are made ready to be shipped TO all
