ditions of Our Western Sojourn," was

WEDDING ANNIVERSARY.

blessed be the tie that binds
graced the occasion.
Mr.. and Mrs. George F. Morrison
celebrated their twenty-fifth anniver-
sary at their beautiful home, S34 Fox
street, November 18th, 1912. The
house was artistically decorated with
white and green together with ferns,
and crysanthemums, which made
very beautiful picture. Standing room
could hardly be provided for the host
place from far and near. 1t seemed as
though an unseen hand guided the af-
fair. Tokens of real value are still
coming at this writing. Surely the
goodness and mercy shall follow them
tine remainder cf their lives. Part of
the evening was enjoyed listening to
vocal and instrumental solos by Mes
danes Jones Johnson and Miss
Thrashley, Dunbar's selection by Mr..
l.. S. McWilliams, vocal solo and reci-
tation by Miss Fitzhugh, the blind girl
of st. Louis, Mo. Mr.. and Mrs. Morri-
son wish to extend their heartfelt
thanks to their many friends that have
shown their appreciation in various
ways and wish them long and happy
life.
The bride wore steel gray satin, very
plain and simple and a reef of smilaX,
which fell to the bottom of her dress
and caught with carnation, while the
groom wore dark suit and white vest.

cobs, the latter teacher in the public
schools of Kansas City, Mo-, and by
several relatives in Marshall, Mo-,
where she was born. Wilson is sur
vived by son, Prof. Garfield Wilson,
a prominent dancing instructor Of Chi
cago. Domestic troubles of long stand
ing was the primal cause of this sad
tragedy.

John Walker Scott, resident of

of complication of diseases. Mr..
Scott was born in New Bedford, Mass,
in Oct. 1856 and was 56 years of age
at the time of his death, his funeral
services were held at the mortuary of
the Lawhorn Undertaking Co., on

vices being conducted by Rev. John
Perkins, assistant pastor of Antioch
Baptist church. Only few weeks ago
Mr.. Scott lost his mother. He is sur
vived by two sisters, Mrs. Chas. Muir
ply and Mrs. John Owens and several
nieces. Interment was at Riverside.

Anyone who knows of the reputation
of Frank Burnley, the astute manager
of the Calumet Club, will not wonder
at the high standard which this popu-
lar pleasure resort is maintained. The
reading or library room, where all the
latest papers and magazines are at the
disposal of the members, is indeed a
feature worthy of no little considera-
ton. The topical themes, which are
wisely discussed therein only add food
to the asthetic mind, while the amuse-
ments in the pool and billiard parlor
and whist room only vies with the mu-
steal department in relieving ones IA
tigue when his idle moments of recre-
alton is spent at the Calumet.

Denver, Nov. 19.-Vice President
Brown of the Denver & Rio Grande
railroad, yesterday awarded to the
Utah Construction Company of Ogden,
Utah, contract in the sum of $1,500,-
900 for the grading Of the new double
track detour line over Soldier Summit,
where the railroad crosses the Wa
satch range in Utah. This change in
Wolves the building of fifteen miles of
new line and reduces the grade from
four to two per cent Construction
will commence at once, and contract
calls for completion August 1st, 1913.
The work will be very heavy and will
include one tunnel 255 feet long. There
will be no bridges, but numerous con-
crete arches. The new line will be
laid with 90-lb. steel rails, rolled at the
plant of the Colorado Fuel e Iron
Company. Pueblo, Colo. The track will
be ballasted with Jordan Narrows
Gravel
The Colorado statesman., 1912-11-23

logical reason given for the change is
the confusion of this paper, The Colo
rado Statesman, and that of The
Statesman. In referring to articles
that appear in The Colorado States
man and giving credit for the high
standard which it maintains in Negro
journalism, people generally refer to it
as THE Statesman for short. SO
hereafter any reference made in this
respect will always mean The Colora-
do Statesman, as The Statesman is no
more, in name.

Boas as Nitrate-fieIds.

If peat is mixed with lime and sown
with nitrifying ferments, its filaments
become incased with masses of nj
trates. Wherever there are peat
bc8B it is possible to obtain nitrates
equivalent in quality to those of the
great nitrate deposits in Chile. The
bogs, hitherto regarded as good for
fuel only, are thus found to be unde-
