Philip McC Conaghy Dies
Suddenly in New York

For the third time, the hand of
war has gripped Idaho Springs in
its iron grasp, and Philip James
McConaghy died w d n d a y
morning in New York while in the
service Of his country.
Word came Monday that he was
seriously i'll. Tuesday telegram
said he was worse, and Wednes-
day morning he died. The cause
of his death has not been given,
and will not be known until the
death certificate comes with the
body.
Philip James McConaghy was
born in Idaho Springs, January
%, 1898. At about eleven years of
age, he became errand boy at Mel
sons store, and at the time of his
enlistment in government service,
he was the capable manager of the
mems department in the same es-
tablishment. Mrs. Nelson was
grief stricken at the sad news, as
Phil had endeared himself almost
as one OF the family.
Last spring the young man ap-
piled for instruction in some class
to help win the war and was sent to
Boulder in the radio service. He
stood high in the estimation of his
officers and instructors, and in less
than a month was made corporal.
At the completion of his two
months course at Boulder, he was
rated an expert and sent to New
York City college for three months
further instruction.
While in New York McConaghy
continued his excellent record. A
letter written by him to a friend
the Thursday before his death,
stated that he had been offered a
position as assistant instructor in
laboratory work. He had been
told that if he continued his good
work it meant something very
good for him. The letter showed
that he was in good health and the
best of spirits.
Phil was of happy, optimistic
nature, and enthusiastic in his
work for the country. He will be
sadly missed by his parents, Mr..
and Mrs. James McConaghy of
Denver, and two sisters, Miss
Julia McConaghy of Denver, and
Mrs. Mary Morrison of California.

Large Attendance at
Patriotic Service

Three excellent addresses, pat
riotic through and through, were
delivered last Sunday evening at
the Methodist church by Rev.
Sprouse of the Episcopal church i,
Rev. J. Martin of the Methodist
church, and Rev. H. F. Bevis,
Presbyterian. The house was
crowded with people of all denom-
ations, as the government had is
sued request that union meet
ing be held to further the sale of
bonds of the Fourth Liberty Loan.
Singing by a mixed choir COM
posed of singers from all the
churches added to the patriotic
enthusiasm. Mrs. Townsend, Ray
Coughlin, and E l.. Siekmann sang
beautifully keep the Home Fires
Burning. Mrs. w. + Renshaw
accompanied them. Miss Leona
Stephens accompanied the choir
and congregational singing.
The ministers, while trying not
to allow too much bitterness at the
crimes of Gremany to enter their
talks, made it very apparent that
the only thing to do is to make
the world safe for democracy, and
that the allies must have vast
sums of money to overcome the
autocrats who still harbor a desire
for conquest.

County Must Hustle

Creek county. Onr quota is
1926, $50. Camp Urad has al
ready pledged $4,000, and sub
scriptions turned in in Idaho
Springs amount to $4,000. 1t

doubling of subscriptions to go
over the top this time, but Chair
man Will Woodward and his corps
of workers are putting forth every
effort.
On the Third Liberty Loan our
quota was s85, 200, and the amount
actually raised was SlO6,5OO or
125 percent of the quota. This
time our quota was at first placed
at $158,25O with Clear Creek in
the "A" class, but Chairman Wood
ward and the committee succeeded
in having our classification as a
