REV. }. III. DENNIS APPOINTED
ARCHDEACON OF WEST SLOPE

The Rev. j. H. Dennis, rector OF
St. Lukes Episcopal church of this
city, has been appointed by the
bishop to fill the important posi-
ton of Archdeacon, or general mis-
sionary of Western Colorado.
This appointment will give wider
scope to Mr.. Dennis splendid abili-
ties as a preacher and priest. At
his own request, we understand, the
archdeacon will retain charge of st.
Luke's, much to the satisfaction of
the parishioners, only officiating
however, one Sunday of each month.
He has already commenced his
new duties, which will necessitate
the removal of his family to Grand
Junction, and this will take place
as soon as a suitable residence can
be secured in the latter town. The
archdeacon numerous friends in and
around Delta, while sorry of the
change, are glad of the honor con
ferred upon him and wish him ev-
cry success in his new field of labor.
The loss of Mrs. Dennis will also
be much felt, particularly by the
members of st. Luke's Guild, of
which she is an active member.

rs a pure food insl ector has at least
oeen temporarily setlled by DR.. Paul
5. Hunter, secretary and executive
officer of the board. DR.. Hunter
| yesterday appointed Ault a special
food inspector whose salary is to be
drawn from the emergency fund.
This appointment is to continue
until the next meeting of the board
during the last week of February
when the board will either confirm
it or refuse to do so.
Ault, who was a regular inspect
or, was removed from office at
meeting of the board a week ago
last Friday. News of his removal
did not become general public know
ledge for several days. 1t is said
was nothing premeditated in the
action. One of the members of the
board made charges against Ault
Informally during the meeting and
they were quickly acted upon.
DIR. VIM. C. X. Berlin, Repub-
lean member of the board was then
named by the body to take Ault's
place. The whole action was inter
preted by many at the capitol as a
direct slap at the governor by the
board. This is denied by the mem
bers who say that the board is en-
tirely friendly to the governor and
that the action taken was not de-
liberate or of a political nature.
AS an executive officer, DR.. Hunt
er has the authority of temporary ap

RUSSBLLIS PLEA
FOR WORLD PEACE
Progress to Goal Described
in Morning Sermon.

The progress Of peace" in which he
showed how during the last 1000 years
the world has forsaken the old idea OF
bloodshed as the proper settlement OF
questions Of honor, formed the text OF
the sermon delivered in st. Patrick's
Catholic Church yesterday morning by
Mgr. William T. Russell. In this ad-
dress, Mgr. Russell stated that the prog
ress Of humanity in sentiment against
war cannot be measured by generations.
1t is only by taking a general survey of
2,0oO years, he declared, that the advance
of the peace movement could be seen.
Let Us hope that this day is passing," ("
he continued, 'and that this last rem
nant Of barbarism will, in the not far
distant future, be regarded in its true
light To-day the air Is full of the sub
ject of international peace. 1t is too big
