MISS THRAsHLEYs PUPILS RE-
CITAL.

Last Tuesday night at the Peoples
Presbyterian church, the music pupils
of Miss Beatrice Thrashley demon
strated before a large audience. The
students in every respect reflected
due credit on themselves, and once
more advertised Miss Thrashley as a
most painstaking and competent
music teacher. The race should be
proud of such characters as this un-
assuming and efficient instructress.
Her contribution to mankind cate
gorises her to be an indispensable and
invaluable asset to our community
life. Parents seeking a music teach
er for their offsprings will do well to
give this consecrated young lady u
chance. Mrs. Americus Hughes was
in session with her floral decorations
for the concert. For her effort in
this wise we owe a debt of gratitude.

tist church, in choice words, compli-

for their splendid execution of the
nights program. Signed

OUR DRAFTED MEN
DEPART TONIGHT

The stirring patriotic speeches at
Zion Baptist church last evening to
our drafted men, who go to Camp
Funston this evening, will serve as
an inspiration "to do or die" in the
cause of America and her allies. Pat
riots were given an opportunity to
show their encouragement to the
men, and a reception which included
a dinner and numerous tokens and
gifts from relatives, friends and we'll
wishers served an admirable purpose.
The Y. M. G. A. and Queen City bands
enlivened the proceedings, and the
"Goodbyl God bless you! Hope to
see you again! Good luck!" inter
spersed with teardrops, gave a dem
onstration of real heartfelt devotion
to our countrys cause This evening,
at Twentieth and Welton streets, the
men will assemble, and from this point
they will march to the depot with the
Spanish War Veterans, G. A. R. and
other societies, led by the Queen City
band. The Colorado Statesman wishes
our military Representatives Godspeed,
good luck and safe return.

For the past weeks assisting clergy
men in the persons of Rev. Thos.
Bell and Rev. G. G. Sawyer rendered
most acceptable pulpit services for the
Peoples church. Last Sabbath Elder
w. S. Evans delivered a most practi-

Y. M. c. A. NOTES.

Pretty busy times around the Y. M.
c. A. these days. The boys are train
ing for the football games every day,
and claim that they will be in fine
condition by Thanksgiving. They are
seeking a game with some ambitious
team now.
And then plans are being per-
fected for the great membership drive
which will begin on Monday, Novem-
ber 5th. Headquarters have been
secured in the Baxter building, cor
ner Washington and Welton streets,
where the teams will meet every night
during the campaign for dinner and
for reports. Ten teams of men and
two of boys have been formed, each
consisting of a captain and five mem
bers. The campaign will close on the
18th. The opening dinner will be
served by the ladies of the City Fed
Grafton.
Rev. DR.. Smith, pastor of Christ M.
E. church, gave a most heart-search-
ing lecture on Prayer last Sunday af-
ternoon. AS this is the four hun
dredth anniversary of the great re-
formation begun by Martin Luther,
Prof. L. B. Longacre of the chair of
church history of the Tiff school of
Theology, will deliver an address on
that great being at the meeting next
Sunday afternoon at four o'clock. All
will be welcome.

FINAL RECEPTION TO OUR BOYS.

TONIGHT at o'clock sharp, our
drafted men will be treated to hot
supper at Shorter Church, 23rd and
Washington streets, under the aus
pices of the Auxiliary of the Women's
Service League and the Colored
Branch of the Red Cross Society.
A hearty invitation is extended
to friends and we'll wishers to say
goodbye to our soldier boys, and any
gifts or remembrances will be greatly
appreciated.
The ladies who have charge of the
proceedings are doing all in their pow
er to make this an ever memorable
event which will help to goad our
army men to victory.

CAUTION AND CONTRADICTION.

A woman that was put out of a
house last spring in the city has put out
a report that the owner of the house
and several other houses owned by the
estate, has keys and goes into the
houses when the tenants are out. This
report holds this woman liable to a
very serious charge as well as damag-
ing the business. Such an act the
owner would not dare to. An agent has
full charge of this property and the
only time this owner goes on the
premises is when a place is vacant to
get it in condition to rent. And besides,
the owners have lived in Denver al
most forty years and have never
proved to be thugs or burglars to the
community.
