MRS. FRANK GAINES, POPULAR
RESIDENT OF DENVER, DIES
IN WASHINGTON, o. c.

On going to press information
reached us of the death of Mrs. Frank
Gaines, late of 243S Lafayette street,
after an illness of few days, a victim
of the influenza. Mrs. Gaines, native
of Washington, ID. c., who came to the
West about ten years ago with her
husband and son Frank, Jr, was very
popular in church and social circles,
and was particularly noted for her
works of charity and acts of kindness
which she did in very quiet and un-
assuming manner. Known to the pub
lie only by the expressions of graft
tude that came from those who were
the recipients of her bounty. Devoted
to her family, she visited but two
weeks ago, accompanied by her son,
her mother who was stricken with par
alysis, contracting influenza on the
journey, and it is said, could not see
her parent as she was taken to hos
pital on her arrival at Washington.
News of her condition reached Mr..
Gaines. who Immediately left for
Washington last week Tuesday. and
who remained at her bedside until she
passed away last Wednesday evening.
The deceased was a member of the
Episcopal Church of the Holy Redeem
er and will be very much missed as
she was Jealous worker in the Mas
ters' cause. The body is being brought
to Denver, this being the permanent
residence of her husband who is del
icatessen merchant at the popular Five
Points district The Colorado States
man joins the large body of friends
and acquaintances of the deceased in
extending it sympathy to the be-
reaved relatives, commencing them to
the care of the Arch-Consoler who will
comfort them in this very sad hour

The great War Work drive is now
drawing to a close, Monday being the
last day. 1t is hoped that many who
have not yet pledged subscription
will do SO before Monday evening.
This is an opportunity to help the
fighting men which no one should let
go by, for it has been pointed out that
now that the real fighting is over the
men will need the help and influence
of these organizations as never before,
Any one living in the vicinity of the
Y. M. C. A. may leave their pledges at
the building.
The croquet fans die hard. They
seem determined to get their share of
the sport as long as there remains a
pleasant day, and quite likely Thanks
giving day will find them still play

cred with snow. Let them have all
they can get 1t is a long time tp

Mr.. Joseph d, d.. Rivers, Editor
The Colorado Statesman, Den
yer, Colo.
MY dear Mr.. Rivers:
Kindly accept my thanks, and
sincere qualification for the splen-
did work accomplished by your
paper during the recent campaign.
| am also deeply indebted to the
splendid support given me at the
election on November 5th, last by
your subscribers, readers and the
colored people in general in Den
yer, and throughout the state,
which was one of the main fac
tors that brought victory for the
Republican party.
Many congratulatory letters
have been received from electors
who supported my candidacy for
the office of state auditor, and
through The Statesman. stauDch
and reliable paper devoted to the
uplift of the colored race, l ex-
tend my appreciation for your
thoughtful expressions and sup
port
1t behoves all our citizens now,
irrespective of party affiliation, to
give to the newly elected officers
their support and help to make the
incoming the best administration
that the state of Colorado has
ever had, and herald to the world
that not only is Colorado place
where people exist, but where
they really live.
Greater Colorado means sup
port of all our manufactures, our
home grown products, and every
thing that we produce or enters
into our daily consumption. 1t
means work for the returned boys
from the front, and helps build up
our institutions so that they are
equal to the best in the country.
and with this end in view our
citizens, irrespective of color,
creed or party politics, can with
pride refer to their state as the
greatest state in the greatest
country on earth.
With best regards for success
of the Statesman, and to all my
colored friends, / remain,
Very truly yours,
ARTHUR M. STONG.
