Popular Teacher
Married.

One of the biggest surprises that has
been sprung in Grand junction for
some time was the announcement made
yesterday that Forest B. Nicely, man.
ager of the Colorado Telephone Co. at
Palisade and Miss Isabella Law, pop
ular local high school teacher. were
married in Grand Junction May l6, or
two weeks ago. On the same day that
the wedding took place, Mr.. Nicely an
nounced that it would occur June and
as result the army of friends of the
couple who had threatened to kidnap
them and do charivari stunt that
would pale past performances of the
kind in Grand Junction, began to lay
plans for June z.
But Mr.. Nicely and Miss Law stole a
march on them and the ceremony by
which they were made man and wife
took place at the home of Mrs. Myrtle
Greer. Rev. C. w. G. Lyon of the
Episcopal church officiating. Great
secrecy was maintained and only few
intimate friends were present, Rev.
Lyon being taken to the house in a
closed carriage. After the knot had
been tied Mr.. Nicely returned to his
work at Palisade and Miss Law re-
sumed her duties as teacher in the high
school.
Last evening Mr.. and Mrs. Nicely
went to Palisade to take up their per-
manent residence. Grand Junction
News.
The bride has many friends in Delta,
having taught several terms in the
high school here, who will wish hei
much happiness in her married life.

THE CREATIVE POWER.
"science," Said Lord Kelvin, "Affirms
the Existence of a God"

! cannot at all accept the view of
those who assert that ether is atomic.
since all my own investigations have
clearly demonstrated TO me that its
structure is totally nonatomic. In fact.
it has no structure in the accepted
meaning OF the term. Neither can !
accept the view of those who assert
that science neither afiirns nor denies
the existence of Creator. On the con
trary. science most positively asserts
the existence of a creative power. We
cannot escape from this conclusion
when we study the physique and the
dynamic Of living beings and dead"
nature which we see around us.
Modern psychologists again firmly de
clare that there is something else out
side gravitation and the physical and
chemical forces. This something Is a
vital principle Science places before
us an unknown. In thinking Of this
unknown we all become agnostics. We
only know God in his works. but we
are forced by science to believe with
perfect confidence in other than phys.
cal. dynamic or electrical forces
There is 10 middle term between nbso
iufe scientific belief in Il creative power
and the acceptance of the theory Of u
haphnZarl coming together of atoms.
Here scientific thought Is forced TO nc.
cept the notion of creative power
Forty years ago I asked the great Lie
big during Il walk in the country II
he believed that grass and flowers grew
solely as the result Of chemical force.
He replied. Not any more than be
iieve that chemical force can translate
book upon botany describing the
phenomena of vegetation" Every act
of the will is a stupendous miracle for
chemical. physical and mathematical
science. If your intellect is strong
enough you Will be forced to believe
In God. the foundation of all religion,
and you Will see that science Is not at
all hostile to religion. Far from that.
1t must be looked upon as its auxiliary.
Lord Kelvin.

Methodist Conference Over.

The twenty-fifth Methodist Episcopal
General Conference closed at Baltimore
Monday, after rushing through lot Of
business. On Sunday in the Lyric Thea
ter the eight new bishops had been con-
secrated, Bishop Warren officiating.
One of the last acts was to change the
title of the presiding elders to that of
district superintendent" Another
was to take the time limit off the pro-
bationary membership and to make it
possible for the stewards and class
leaders to order the admission of appli-
cants for full membership on the ap-
proval of the pastor. The committee
report sustaing the appeal of Prof.
Henry G. Mitchell of Boston Universe
ty, who was convicted of heresy by the
Central New York Conference, was

FINANCIAL STATEMENT OF THE
Town of Delta, Colo.

1UWu VI UC1IQ, NUIU.
The Board of Trustees have employed
an expert accountant to check over the
financial condition of the Town of
Delta, and submits to the citizens of
our town the following report, to-wit:
CASH ACCOUNT.
Cash on hand April is, 1907. 5 3,67l. As
Total receipts from April is,
1907, to April 80, l9Os.... 29, ,636 Sc
s 80, 3Os. OF

Cash on hand April 80, 1908, S 1880 80
BONDED INDEBTEDNESS OF THE TOWN.
Water Bonds. .............. $1O2, 900. 90
Sewer Bonds. ds............... 10000 90
Total. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS los, 900. 90
Of these $4,000 bear interest at 6
per cent per annum, and $4,000 at
5 per cent per annum.
OUTSTANDING REGISTERED WARRANTS.
April Both, 1908. ............ 5 33, 1888. 68
Sewer warrants .. 435 90
Cement walk warrants. -. 8,74S.76
Total. l.................. AZ, 822. Al
1t is to be remarked that the sewer
warrants and cement walk warrants
represent accounts due for the con-
struction of walks in front and sewers
in rear of private residences and are
offset by accounts due to the town, Sc
cured by liens on the respective proper
ties. The Indebtedness of the town,
outside of bonds consists OF the amount
of registered warrants, $33, 63S 6S, less
cash on hand, SO, 2,63O.26, or total of
s31 ,OOs AZ. This sum is substantially
the amount of revenue that is received
from all sources by the Town of Delta
during each year, so that it simply
means that our city is behind about
twelve months in the payment of war
rants on the several funds. The reason
for this Indebtedness is well known to
our citizens. During the last twelve
months our town has expended between
nine and ten thousand dollars for ce-
ment street and alley crossings; our
! water WOIhS system HAS DSCi eAIelueu
| by the running of pipe lines to a num-
ber of springs and the installing in our
city of many thousand feet of mains
and service pipes and the addition of a
large number of fire plugs these i'm
provements on the water works system
totalling in excess of $4,000, besides
which, as is well known, the town has
been behind considerably ever since the
completion of the water works system,
and legacy of indebtedness has been
handed down by one council to another
for many years.
1t is undeniably true, however, that
every cent of the indebtedness incurred
has been for necessary expenditures,
and our city would have been crippled
greatly had these expenditures not
been made.
