ST. Adams, July l9.-The strike or.

TO effect at $3.50 O'Clock last evening
when all Of the 800 odd conductors
and trainmen except those operating
trains IN transit, walked out. this
action following the breaking of of
negotiations In Montreal. The rail.
road officials claim that II Is utter.
ly impossible to meet the demands OF
the men and having taken the step
the men will now have to fight to a
finish. All trains which were en-
route at the hour the strike order
went into effect were carried through
to their destinations, when their
crews promptly joined the strikers.
About 75 of them met IN the even.
ing In Knights OF Pythas han. and
when the strike order was received
about $3.50 o'clock they quietly disper.
sed and went to their homes. All

200 men, will be closed for an inden.

capacities, some OF them 70 be put on
to trains and others TO be sworn In as
special officers TO guard trains and
other property OF the company.
The weak spot In the strike Is be.
lleved to lie in the fact that the en-.
CINE men are to remain LOYAL 10 the
company These men secured an In
crease several months ago and are al
present conducting a movement for
another advance, but this has not
progressed far enough so that the,
feel that they would be justified n
striking at this time.

yesterday by a score of 9 to 4. De-
troit made nine hits of Collins but
they we're so well scattered that only
one run was made of him during the
first eight innings. Collins struck
out the great "Tyr Cobb twice. Col

At the present time Leonard stands
second in the batting on the team

Death Always at the Elbow of
the Diver
A prize winner.

Soldiers and sailors, fremen and po-
licemen, risk their lives many a time,
but manys the days work they do
where there is no risk at all. Not so
with that workman of modern days
the diver. He never goes to his days
labor without taking his life in his
hands. The everyday risk to the aver
age American workman is imfinitesi-
NAL; the diver has his risk always with
him. His next job may always be his
last
No diver has taken his daily chance
oftener than Captain John Olsen Of
Boston. For nearly 40 years, winter
and summer, this doughty descendant
of the Norsemen has done his work in
the depths of the sea. His first dive
was his hardest. Said he;
When l started down and saw the
great wall of water closing over me 1
thought that 1t was going to over
whelm and drown me. l forgot, you
know, that I was looking at it through
the thick glass of the helmet that was
keeping me safe. I felt as If / was
being smQthered and wanted to come
right up again long before l got to the
bottom. But as l didn't care to be
laughed at and called coward by the
mates l screwed up my courage and
stayed down. The second day / re-
mained down longer, and by the end of
the week l was all right and a fun
fledged diver with all fear knocked out
OF me-"
More than a quarter OF a century
ago, when the steamer City OF COlum-
bus foundered off Gay head in. terri
BILE storm, resulting in the loss OF
about 200 lives, Captain Olsen was the
first diver TO go down to the lost
steamer He was engaged to make a
thorough examination of the wrecked
ship and TO recover what bodies he
could With but a few hours respite.
he was under water at that time for "a
hours without sleep.

NOTES OF THE PEOPLES PRESBY

We desire to request our friends

promptly at O'Clock as we are under
obligation to begin at that time. A
cordial invitation is extended to all the
ministers of the colored churches with
their congregations. Due credit will
be publicly given to all contributors
for this effort.

Last Sabbath Mr. ]. d. Rice
preached us an excellent sermon. AT
the close of the service Madames
Laura Hill, Ida Purcell and Louis
Speers applied for membership. Their
examination on religious experience
and financial ability to contribute to
the Peoples church having been sus.
tanned by the session, these ladies will
be publicly received at the next com
munion service October 2.
The pastor and Elder DR.. Crosthwait
attended the fall meeting of Presby'
terry last Tuesday at Golden. The
elder wonderfully impressed the Pres
pytery. The stand he took for the
race in toto and specially for the
church to which he now belongs is sure
to result in mutual good for all con
cerned. The pastors report on the
Freedmen's work was received with
favorable comment. Colored Presby'
terians raised for all purposes among
themselves last year $63,459. The
church at large contributed to this
board s207,799 43, being an increase OF
s22.2S5.S5 over the previous year

FINANCIAL RESOURCES TO SUP
PORT NEGRO BUSINESS.

The financial resources of Shorter's
Chapel is greater than all the gross
Negro business in Denver. A Negro
business that could do a business of
$6,746,45 per year, would furnish en-
ployment to a dozen people. Why not
take the financial figures of Shorter's
Chapel for 1910, and figure that If our
people will patronize one church to
that amount all the patrons of the var
ious Negro churches ought to patronize
a department store to the amount Of
$4,000 per year, as the amount spent
for the necessities of life are greater
than their contributions to a church.
The financial figures of Shorter's
Chapel for 1910 furnish splendid ba-
sis for figuring ON the resources OF
Negroes to support Negro enterprises
We will say that Shorter's congrega-
ton of 500 persons would average in
wages $25 per month, total of $12,5V.
per month, and for twelve months of
the year $150,0000.0O, out of this one
congregation. Their financial report
shows a very healthy business pros
pect for what other enterprises would
get after the balance left from their
salaries, which is considerable
amount
After deducting from the annual
earnings of $150,00000 their contribu'
tionc 10 ChOrtar'S a'haDel S6.746 As
there would be left balance ofg $14S,-
253.55, for a business basis for some
department store to figure on, from
that one congregation; and there are
eleven Negro churches in Denver.
To say that Negroes have no finan-
ciaI resources to support Negro busi-
ness is a mistake, since the financial
figures of Shorter's close incorporation
which does not furnish employment to
or return more than 10 per cent. back
to its patrons The Negroes of Den
yer ought to be convinced from Shor-
ter,s Annual Report that business
conducted for the purpose of furnish
ing employment and commercial ex-
change would be as prosperous as one
which only promises a future, and the
support of two or three people. am
not opposed to the churches or the IN
telligent preacher, but do think that
these times call for broader view OF
Christianity.
