IS GREAT ESTABLISHED FAC
Skeptlcs Have at All Times Failed Disprove the Resurrection of
 Easter Morning. s

The lesson of Easter involves th question of the divinity of Chris There are two great miracles upd which Christianity rests. The mlracf lous birth and the resurrection go tf gether. If we believe one we can bE lieve the other. The former Is nf subject to historical proof. The la ter has been proved and Is one of tl best-established facts in history.
 Those who imagine themselves be too modern" to accept the resu rection as n literal fact, are deludifl no one but themselves. There is not ing new in the effort to explain nv; the great event. Men have been tr ing out explanations ever since tl guards who went to sleep on du around the tomb excused themselv! by saying the disciples stole his boo away while they slept. Explaine have risen and fallen as the ages ha' come and gone and the deeper q explainers have gone into the matte tho more apparent has become q fact. The simple Gospel narratlv gave enough of the physical detai of the event to make 1t convincinI the fact that the disciples themselv did not expect the resurrection ai were slow to believe 1t until tn were forced to believe 1t by his prt ence among them; by exhibition of 1 sacred wounds and the fact that became the burden of their preachi in the future all go to make up | Indlsputable collateral evidence of literal fact.

LIFE AFTER DEATH

 Bring Forth Fruit"

@ ERHAPS because the power of D rising from death is in man
 so integral a part of his nature
 he uses 1t familiarity without surprise, never quite realizing its God quality. From his daily deaths of trou- ble and struggle, from the death of goals he cannot reach, the deaths of gladness and love, of hopes that die with each sunset, he is reclaimed a thousand times. He cannot really die, for all the seeming deaths that daily attend him. They fall into the ground and die. He rises, raised by the power of life in him, and new hopes, new works he brings forth.
 To set this life-power to eternal things is hard for him, being within material world of his own creation. He has lost the intensity of desire for

Hod Eller, who shut the Sox out on
his first appearance in the world series,
was again largely responsible for the
victory of the Reds in the final game
Eller pitched good ball and the ma
jority Of the runs scored by the White
Sox were due to Cincinnati 3 two field

NO LOWER WHEAT PRICE
CAN BE EXPECTED

San Francisco, Oct. 7.-Agitation for
q lower wheat price to reduce the cost
of living is popular fallacy," julius
Barnes, director of the United States
grain corporal. on, said in an address
here today.
The guarantee of $2.O5 bushel to
the American farmer is considerably be-
low the world market price and there
is no profiteering in wheat, or wheat
products, he said. Mr.. Barnes also
stated that other countries paid as much
as $4.33 bushel for wheat and that
the present world price was $2.46. The
wholesale price of wheat had increased
166 per cent since 1918, he said, and
the cost of flour 1ls per cent and that
of bread but 75 per cent.
According to Mr.. Barnes, food pro-
ducts are 200 per cent higher in Great
Britain, France and Italy than in the
United States.

NAGIN AFFECTS CoMPRo-
MISE WITH COUNTY

Joe Nagin, II Colorado Springs junk
dealer, who about two years ago was
convicted in the district court on the
charge of larceny and was sentenced
to serve from eighteen months to three
years in the state penitentiary, follow
ing similar sentence of from three to
five years from the district court OF
Ell Paso county, was before the board
Of county commissioners this week to
secure compromise on the costs Of
his case in our district court.
After serving part of his Ell Paso
county sentence Nagin was parolled and
is now at liberty on good behavior. In
asmuch as his Ell Paso county sentence
has not been served, it is difficult to
understand how he can claim a parole
from his Garfield county sentence
which he has not yet began to serve.
However, Nagin claimed that he WAS
broke and was not in position to pay
the county the costs of suit.
After considerable negotiation and
sparring with the board it was agreed
that the county would accept $3.50 in
payment of their claim of more than
$3.50 against him, and contract to
that effect was entered into. Nagin
paying the first installment of $50
and agreeing to pay the county $50
each month until the entire indebted
ness was cancelled. Nagin says he
will continue in the junk business and
expects to make money enough to eau-
eel all his debts.

Some indication Government Is Still
Considering Purchase Of This Prop.
erty---A|so Some Explanations
CITY COUNCIL IS FAVORABLE

Treasury Department, Washington,
September 27, 1919.
To His Honor,
The Mayor of Glenwood Springs,
Glenwood Springs, Colorado.
Sir:
In reply to your letter Of September
10, 1919, in which you request inform
alton relative to the class of patients
the U. 8. Public Health Service antici-
pated caring for at the proposed hos
pital at the Hotel Colorado property,
I desire to advise you that the primary
object of such hospital in Colorado
would be for the milder types Of ner-
vous disorders-so- called "shellshock -
or functional disorders. An institution
Of this kind will be needed somewhere
In the West and the Hotel Colorado
was tentatively selected with this util-
ixation in mind.
Should q hospital for the insane be
established in the West, it might be
advisable to operate it in conjunction
with the neurosis hospital suggested
above, or on the other hand, It might
be placed in an entirely different To-
cality. At any rate, It il believed
that the present day hospital, conducted
in accordance with modern principles
Of care and treatment Of the insane,
does not in any way warrant the preju-
dice evidenced in the minds Of the cit
izens Of Glenwood Springs against an
"insane asylum" described by them
as "not "a hospital Of any kind"
Respectfully,
j. H. MOYDE,
Assistant Secretary.

war interrupted the campaign started
several years ago with the object of
providing picturesque mountain pal
