DELTA BOY WRITES OF SOME OF
EXPERIENCES WITH UNCLE
SANS NAVY-ATTENDS OFF.
cEhS' SCHOOL EACH DAY.

The following letter received from
Albert Chipperfield by his parents, Mr.
and Mrs. A H. Chipperfield, is of in
terest to ourselves and we feel sure it
Will prove so to our readers. Albert
has scores of friends in Delta, having
attended the Delta schools, graduating
from high school about three years
ago. He is now with the expedition
airy forces on the other side The let
ter was penned before sailing from
Nova Scotia and we take great pleas
ure in reproducing it herewith:
Dear Folks at Home: This is Sun
day noon and they Just announced this
morning that this would be the last
chance to write an uncensored letter,
so here goes. although 1 expect it will
be several days before you get this,
as they say it won't start on its way
until We get to England. and no one
knows when that will be.
Il am on board the Carpathia, the
one that rescued the survivors cf the
louisiana. We got on land last Mon
day noon at New York a7l came out
of there that night We got here at
Halifax Thursday morning and have
been lying here in this harbor ever
since. There are three other large
ships right beside us. loaded with
transports and provisions. They prob
ably are going to send us all over to-
qether The earliest time set for sail
ing is next Wednesday | ion't know
how much there is in it though but
hope so, cause I'd like to get thero
and get out on some land again. tell
you what we are pretty crowded on
here There are about $500 on board,
| two regiments, the Second and Tenth.
There isn't much to do on here. We
all have half hour physical exercise
every day and have to attend a nom
commissioned officers school every af-
ternoon for an hour. We get up box
ing and wrestling matches and have
few checker boards and play cards
"The weather here is fine. Most
levery day is bright and clear. The
evenings and mornings are cool and an
overcoat doesn't feel bad.
These ships are certainly great
beasts. I saw the Vaterland in New
York; some say that it expects to go
over with us. 1t certainly is mons
/ ter.
"I am getting along fine and dandy.
I'll be glad when I get back to Gods
country though: or if they'd give us
our mail il wouldn't be so bad
"As all this will be stale news by
the time it reaches YOU. I'll not write
more this time Have heard that it
would take three weeks TO make the
trip across to England: they zigZag
around so.
Lots of love to all. from Albert

GEORGE ORLANDO STATES
DIES AT cEDAREDGE THURSDAY

The subject of this sketch was born
near the town of Danville. Michigan.
March 10. 1S4S. being at the time of
his death 60 years and seven months
of age.
In 1865 he was married to Miss Car
rie ID. Gilbert of Memphis. Michigan.
who still survives him. She has been
his constant companion, his help and
assistance during all these years and
especially his last few years of fail
ing health.
George o. States when a young man
learned the trade of broom maker. a
trade he followed for many years, in
fact he used this trade to earn a live
lihood for himself and wife while he
attended Battle Creek college in Michi-
gan II was in this college he receiv-
ed an education which with his moth
er's training led him in to the Adven-
tist ministry In 1883 he became a
minister in this denomination and was
faithful and devout in that calling un-
til the day of his death. With him
there was no wavering no doubts re
gardinC the path he had chosen to fol
low. He was high-minded. sincere,
genuine, always radiating spirit of
Christian love and charity.
In the year 1885 he with his family
came to Colorado locating in Delta
county. near the town of Eckert. From
that time to this his life before you
all has been an open book.
As husband and father he was
most kind and consiierate, . loving.
true and generous to a fault. He lived
for the good he could do in the realm
Of his own family and all people within
his power to reach.
During the past few years of his life
he was a great sufferer but he bore il
with a fortitude and faith almost SUI
perhuman. He lived this life true to
his family true to his church. true TO
his friendships. true to his community
his state and his country. Next to ms
abiding faith in the principles II his
church was his faith in the sublime
purposes and mission of his govern
ment He believed this government
was founded by inspired men and that
IT is to this day an instrument in the
bands of the Almighty to further the
cause of liberty. humanity and justice
in the world. He kent abreast of the
times and every unfolding of his coun-
trv's purposes was fresh evidence OF
its divine mission to help and bless
the world.
We come 10 nonOr MS ire anu w
lay away. tenderly, lovingly. with the
thoughts uppermost in our minds OF
his purity of life. his Cody conduct
and his faith and hope in n future life
If he could speak he would gladly
utter words of thankfulness to all who
have rendered him acts of kindness or
whispered to him words of help and
courage during these last few years
OF suffering He died as he hau lived,
n manly man. true to his family ms
friendships and his God. Peace be
his rest till the Life Giver comes.
Funeral services were held Mt the
Adventist church at Cedaredge. on
Monday and nterment was at Cory
cemetery. The service was in charge
of Rev. Lysinger of Grand Junction
He is survived by his wife, two sons,
George w. and Charles G.. and u
daughter. Mrs. Artibee.

INVITATION TO RECITAL
NOVEMBER 18TH RECEIVED

Invitations to the recital that will
be given by Hardy Williamson, the
noted tenor, in this city on Nov 18th
have been received by large number
of musicians and music lovers and the
interest that has been manifested in
the coming affair indicated that an
audience representative of the most
cultured people of Delta will hear this
golden voiced Englishman in the de-
lightful program that he will give.
The cards of admission are being sent
out by Mr.. Van Volkenburgh who has
made arrangements for the appearance
here of Mr.. Williamson, and the pop
ularity of the singer is indicated by
the fact that Mr. Van Volkenburgh
has received many requests for invita-
tions from persons who have ex-
pressed their interest in the recital
but whose names did not happen to
be on the list of those to whom invi-
tations were sent
The tremendous appeal that the pro-
grams of Mr.. Williamson have for
music lovers lies not only in the re-
markable beauty of his voice but in
his unusual versatility. He has sung in
concert, opera and oratorio and has
won the enthusiastic plaudits of critics
by his superb work in all of these
branches of the art of the vocalist.
Mr.. Williamson left England to accept
an engagement with the Century Op-
era Company and he appeared with
such great success with that organi-
cation that when IT disbanded he re
Fceived so many offers of lucrative en-
gagements in the United States that
he decided not to return to his native
land
In spite OF all the renoun that he
has won he is still a young man. be
ing only q years old. He has a COM
manding presence and a most engag-
ing personality.
Mr. Williamson will be one of the
outstanding musical features of the
season and those who hold invitations
to his recital are fortunate indeed.

OIL COMP
HOLD Meeting
MEETING TUESDAY NIGHT OUT.
LINED PLANS OF COMPANY
MORE STOCK MUST BE SUB
SCRIsED FOR AT ONCE.

meeting of the stockholders of
the Black Canyon Oil and Gas com
pany was held Tuesday evening at the
office of Fred King. There was
fair sized assemblage OF oil enthusi
asts at the meeting and they were an
interested lot of men. too.
A full discussion of the plans to be
carried out were gone over and ii was
decided to enter into a contract with
the Hotchkiss people for the rig that
they have and the casing, tools and
all other equipment. There is much
to do. however, the most important
that of selling sufficient stock at the
present Introductory price of cents a
share. No work is to be started, II
is said, until more stock is sold or
pledges obtained. No special effort
has been made to sell stock. most of
the subscriptions being made volun-
tarily. but a campaign is to be launch
ed in earnest within a few days to
raise additional subscriptions.
There are a number OF our very best
citizens interested in seeing a well
put down in this immediate vicinity
and they we're either present or
represented by someone at the meet
ing. Much has been said of other
sections in regard to oil bearing strata
existing. but there is no section that
has any better report from their geo
logist than we have from an impartial
party of three experts that recently
made report as to our oil possibility.
These reports are worth carefully con
ciderng. as they were not made
