JOE NEWMAN DRAWS WELL.

The entertainment at the opera
house last Friday evening. given un-
der the auspices of Father Naughton
for the benefit Of st. Mary's Catholic
church, was the event of the season.
The Joseph Newman Company rend-
cred an excellent programme. A large
and appreciative audience encored
every number. Joe Newman was the
same old Joe of old and like wine
he improves with age.
Miss Jane CrawfordI with her pleas
ing countenance and voice is the star
OF the company. AS a cortra.to, she
has few equals, the Creole love song
was a treat, as it was sung with the
expression and feeling that few can
give to songs of this character. Miss
Crawford was the envy Of every wo-
man in the audience on account OF
her small and pretty mouth. We pre-
dict that this lady will soon be call
ed to a larger field.
Miss frankie Mast proved herself
an artist with the violin. Helen Wise

"HoLY HOUR" pEvoTIoNs.

The Rev. B. E. Naughton, pastor OF
st. Mary's Catholic church of this
city, has introduced an original feat
ure in the brief Friday evening de
votions, known as the Holy Hour, ~
which is worthy Of mention and ap-
probation by the members of that
church.
In addition to the usual exercises
of the Holy Hour" as observed else
where, it is Father Naughton's Gus
tom to devote about twenty minutes
of the time each evening to an ex-
planation of a chapter, or a portion
of chapter, of the Catechism. In
giving these instructions, Father
Naughton is meeting a long-felt need,
and even those who are well inform
ed in the teachings of the Catholic
faith, may listen to his clear, simple,
logical exposition of its doctrines
with profit.
AS rule, Catholics are thorough
ly instructed in their religion in
childhood, but in many instances, the
lapse of years or the environment in
which their mature years are spent.
cause these early teachings to fade
into dim, hazy recollections, and in
such cases, Father Naughton's re-
views Oh the CdtecnlSm would un-
doubtedly be helpful! and stimulating.
For the young people and the child
rem they are a necessity. Members of
the congregation are, therefore, earn
estly urged to attend the Holy
Hour" exercises, for a two-fold reas-
on:
First: To attest their love and ven
Grafton for Jesus in the Most Bless
ed Sacrament of the Altar.
Second: To renew the teachings
of their faith in their minds, that
thereby they may gain a clearer un-
derstanding of its sublimity, and be
proportionately stimulated to greater
zeal and fidelity in the practice there
Of, and also to be enabled at all
times, to give intelligent and logical
reasons for the faith that is with
in them
The Holy Hour devotions are
held every Friday evening at 1880.
All non-Catholic friends who may be
interested, are most cordially invited
to be present at these, as well as at
all other services.

JAMES 3. PEARcE
Candidate for Nomination for the
Office Of Secretary of State on the
Democratic Ticket.

Owing to the vast amount of work
which has been given to his office
by reason of the Constitutional
Amendments and new laws enacted,
it will be impossible for James b.
Pearce, candidate for the Democratic
Primary nomination for secretary Of
state, to make a personal campaign.
All of his time, of necessity, must
be spent in the office.
This year the secretary CO states
work has increased one hundred per
cent, over any previous year. There
are two less clerks on the pay roll
than when first taking charge of the
Office, and the office force must work
most every night from now until
January 1st.
Many changes have been made in
this department. In fact, the manner
OF running it and the system used
has been completely revo.utioniZed.
1t is now an up-to-date institution on
commercial basis where close atten-
tion is being paid to cutting down
the expenses of operation and in
creasing the revenue, the result Of
which is most satisfactory.
Mr.. Pearce has been in charge Of
this office for forty-two months. A
comparison of his forty-two months
with the forty-two months of his i'm
mediate predecessors, the records
show a net increase of ,910.05,
averaging a monthly increase of $3,-

JUDGE MAKES NOVEL RECORD.
Delay Of Justice" Cannot be Blamed
to Adams County Jurist,

The Denver Post of August 22nd
had the following item of news about
one of the Democratic candidates for
district Judge:
Judge Harry S. Glass of the coun-
ty court, broke the record Wednes-
day as presiding Judge. He held
court in three different counties in
probate matters, presided in Juvenile
court, heard cases in the County
courts and granted one decree of di-
vorce. ALI this he was able to do un-
der law which permits county
judges to be called from one county
to another to hold court where dock
cts are crowded
Judge Class lives at Brighton, in
Adams county. He started out We'd
nesday morning by hearing a lot of
probate matters at Brighton. Then
he took a train for Boulder at the
request of Judge Ingram and heard
a number of motions and tried one
case in Boulder. Then he came to
Denver and held Juvenile court for
Judge Zen. B. Lindsey. Several mat
ters We're up for hearing and several
pleas of Importance were made be-
lore him. He thought he was through
by 2:3O in the afternoon, but he was
mistaken. Judge Dixon called him in
to his court and requested him to
try divorce case. Judge Glass heard
the evidence, granted a woman with
nine children a divorce, thus CON-
pletng his days itineracy of holding
court in three different counties and
presiding over four different courts"
Commenting on the above, the
Brighton Blade says: The services
OF Judge Glass have been in such
demand by other counties that he
has had very little time % devote
to any canvass for district judge.HiS
reputation and fitness for that office
having been firmly established, We
now only hope that the people of the
district will come to know Judge
Glass personally as well as do the
citizens of Adams county. That ac-
complished, his nomination and cleo
tion are assured. Judge Glass was
recently given a strong endorsement
by the Progressive Republicans of
Adams county,

GRAND JURY FINDINGS.

The grand jury Of this county has
been in session since the 18th OF
June, with the result that five in
dictments have been found. These
were reported to Judge Mccall on
Monday and capias issued for the
following named parties who were
charged with maintaining a disorder
ly house: Matt Mattiyi and John
Girardi of Russell, Fred Warwick,
Lizzie Warwick, and Leu Bunch. of
this city. They all gave bonds in the
sum of 100000 each to appear for
trial on September 9th, at this term
of court.
Judge Mccall ordered the grand
jury to continue in session until
January 1st, 1913. The following COM
prise the grand jury: B. E. Seymour,
foreman; James Moody, Sherman Nc
Callister, John c. Fleschhutz, Will
lam Drew, William Blight, John Rob
ins, Griff Hughes, Leonard Nichols,
F. d. Whitney, NJ. A. Harris, Chas.
Baer.
1t is rumored that the grand jury
has found other indictments. The
Observer has not been able to verify
these reports on account of the
secrecy and air of mystery that sur
rounds the doings of the grand jury
The First judicial district COM
prises the counties of Gilpin, Clear
Creek, Jefferson. Grand, Arapahce and
Adams. Just why Gilpin county alone
should be burdened with the expense
OF a grand jury is a question that
many of the taxpayers are asking.
Possibly old Gilpin is made the goat
as warning to the other five coun-
ties in this district. 1t cannot be
that the citizens of this county are
any less lawabiding than its neigh
