contradicts Old Saying.
Ihe second of DIR. Humphreys para
0oxes seems fatty to contradict the
OLD saying whatever goes up must
come down." However, as the writer
expresses it, vertical circulation in the
atmosphere Is only gravitational ac-
uon, consisting in the sinking of rela-
lively cold and therefore dense air,
and rising of warm and light air.. Con-
uacted air descends, expanded air
ascends. Therefore, mass for mass,
the volume Of ascending air is always
larger than that descending.
The third paradox is merely a way
Of stating that the warmest part OF
the day is not at noon, when the sun
Is at meridian or overhead and should
seemingly be pouring down greater
heat, but several hours later in the
afternoon. That is because the sur
face of the earth and the lower lay
ers of air continue to absorb more
heat from the upper layers for some
time after the latter have been re
ceiving the maximum amount of hea
radiation from the sun.

Y. M. c. A. NOTES.

A large number was present to take
part in the program and to hear the
debate last Sunday afternoon. The
disputants, Lieut.. Mann and Mr.. Le-
roy J. Perkins, made it very lively and
interesting for the listeners, who ap-
plauded every good point made by the
speakers. 1t seemed impossible, how
ever, to settle the question, so it was
finally referred back to the home, and
| the husband and wife and the parents
and children were asked to settle it to
| the best Of their Judgment and their
ability. For the affirmative speaker
declared that society should see to il
that this innovation on the part OF
women should not be allowed to fasten
| itself upon the community, while the
negative speaker held that society in
all-that it was an individual matter
which every woman should be allowed
| to settle with her own conscience and
with her own conception of what was
right or wrong.
Tomorrow (Sunday) afternoon the
regular monthly public meeting of the
Y. NJ and the Y. w. C. A. will be held
at the Peoples Presbyterian Church
chapel. A lively program has been
prepared. The meeting will begin
promptly at 3 80 O'Clock, us it must be
'closed at 4 80 to make room for the
regular o'clock service of the church.
All friends are requested to attend.

GOOD BUSINESS.

T. w. Bean of the Bean Auto Livery
reports business is good. He has an
other Cole Aero Eight enclosed car.
THE demand for closed cars has been
so great that this is the second one of
those fine limousines that he has put
in service in the last few weeks. They
are heated and right up to date. The
new location, 2014 Curtis street, is
one of the best equipped taXicab stands
in the city. There is warm garage
to keep the cars in out of the cold, a
large wash rack to keep them in a
clean, sanitary condition; also IL re-
pair shop, where the cars are kept in
first-class running order. The wash
rack and repair shop are open to the
public at reasonable prices. Their
rates and cars are the best.
These heated, enclosed cars will be
at your service at the same cost or mt
cheaper rate than the cars that are
kept standing out in the cold, dirty

the popular new number, which is the

The evening congregation was
quickened with unusual interest by the
presentation of a Bible film service

which was followed by one-reel pic
ture of the Great Deluge." The pic
ture made a wonderful setting and
illustration for the impressive message
given by the pastor.
Last week, on Thursday evening, the
membership enjoyed most elaborate

served by the ladies of the church.
After the dinner the diners were great

the opening of subscription list for
the church rally, to be given the first
Sunday in June. One thousand dol

JOHN r. SHAFROTH.

AS a pioneer builder congressman,
governor and U. S. senator, Hon. John
f. Shafroth played large part in the
history of Colorado for u period ex-
tending over thirty-five years. He
was integrity itself and held every pub
lie office to be a sacred trust. We did
not always agree with him. We could
not conveniently follow his devious
paths through the maize of political
changes that marked his political
career, but we recognized in Honest
John Shafroth at all times a man of
unusual force and ability. His place
in Colorado history will loom large as
the years go on, for few men had a
keener grasp of public affairs than he,
and but few lived up to the sublime
possibilities of opportunity as did he.
His death last Monday at l :15 was
a distinct shock to the entire country.
But few knew of the seriousness of
his condition. He was q product of
the West, sturdy and reliable in every
crisis, and a national figure with a
brilliant record. We offer our Sympa-
they to the bereaved family.

MRS. NANCY SLOAN PASSES
AWAY.

The citizens of Denver were shocked
to learn last Saturday morning that
kAIrs. Nancy Sloan, a woman promi-
nent in fraternal, church and civic af-
fairs, had passed to the great beyond
ON Friday night after q brief illness
of only few hours. Mrs. Sloan was
in attendance at a meeting of the Ne
gro Protective Association on Thurs
day night and apparently in the best
of health. She became ill early Fri
day morning and though all that hui
man skill could do was employed in
her behalf, she gradually grew worse
till the end came. The funeral, at
Shorter Church Tuesday afternoon,
was attended by large number of
sorrowing friends and relatives. She
was member of Evergreen Chapter
Eastern Star Lodge, which order con-
Quoted the burial ceremony. Rev. w.
H. Thomas preached very touching
sermon. Mrs. Sloan leaves u husband
two daughters and son to mourn her
loss.

WILLIAM J. BAKER.

yN THE PASSING of William ]
Barker, vice president of the Den
yer Gas and Electric Co., all Den
yer has lost valuable, sympathetic
and big-hearted friend. He was man
who arose from the ranks to a high
place in the business world, but sue
cess never turned him in discourse to
be of service to the humblest as well
as to the most exalted citizen in the
community. He was highly progress
siye, skilled as an electrical engineer
and kept in close touch with all the
improved elements of his profession.
But it was his intense humanness, his
kindly nature and willingness to serve
that won to him a larger score of
friends than usually falls to the lot
of one man. Perhaps the truest testi-
monial of the high regard in which he
was held, was to be found in the gem
eral sorrow with which the announce
ment of his death was received and in
the fact that his funeral was attended
by people from every station in lie.
He was a big man, above the petty
annoyances of life, and knew neither
caste, race or creed in his friendships
and benefactions. He was in all things
tue to himself, true to the interests
he served and supremely jealous OF
the high reputation of the city in
which he lived. He has gone to an
honored grave, covered not only by the
generous floral tribute of loving, sor-
rowing friends, but surrounded by the
whispered prayers of those he was
pleased to call friend and brother

OUR HOME OWNERS COLUMN.

The highly commendable spirit of
"Own your home," that took such COM
plete possession of Denver's colored
citizens few years ago, still abides
with us and gives not the slightest evil
dence of abatement.
PROF, GEO. MORRISON and his
estimable family moved into their
beautiful new bungalow at 255S
Gilpin street last week. To say
that it is a dream, in the very latest
of architectural beauty and complete
ness is to express it mildly. Prof.
Morrison is one of Denver's best citi-
zens. He has built securely for the
future, both in his professional line
and by the acquisition of valuable
property that not only means home
of rich and comfortable appointments,
but that likewise means a neat income
as a substantial nest egg. The Nor
rison home is more than a beautiful
show place with every modern con-
venience featuring it, for it will stand
as an enduring testimonial to the
thrift, energy and genius of a worthy
young man, who has made his own
way in life and successfully carved his
own fortune.
MIR. V. T. JAMES, another one of
our splendid citizens, became the own
er of beautiful home at 2S14 Cali
fOrnia street this week.
MIR. AND MRS. GEO. SANBORN,
one of our newlyweds, entered the
lists of Denver's home owning class

pin street. Mr.. Sanborn is a letter
