"Judge Henry M. Funnan full of
years and full of honors has passed
from life's labors to his eternal rest.
He was nn extraordinary man and a
lawyer and jurist of rare endow-
ments. His professional learning and
ability was not the fruit of any ad'
vantages in legal education but was
founded on his largo experience and
inexhaustible diligence. In intellec
tual power he was a giant and a
logician of the highest order and he
was a consummate master of orator!

C. P. HALL
THE NEW AND SECOND-HAND HOME OUTFITTER
In the Green Box House Third and Caddo
have given the criminal jurisprudence
of Oklahoma an international reputa-
tion. I do not think it would be an
extravagant statement to say th;it
among the names of the ptreat Judges
who adorn the annals of American
jurisprudence will be found the name
of Henry M. Furman.
'Personally Judge Furman was a
kindly genial warm-hearted man
whose devotion to high ideqjs capac-
ity for friendship high-minded patriot-
Ism and loyalty to duty and honor
could be fully appreciated only by
those who knew him intimately. The
benevolence of bis heart was In full
accord with his master mind. I can
safely say without disparagement
to others that no man in public life
in Oklahoma was held in higher es-
teem by the people of the state than
Judge Henry M. Furman."

RHEUMATIC PAIN STOPPED
The drawing of muscles the sore-
ness stiffness and agonizing pain of
rheumatism quickly yield to Sloan's
Liniment. It stimulates circulation to
the painful part. Just apply as direct-
ed to the sore spots. In a short time
the pain gives way to a tingling sen-
sation of comfort and warmth. Here's
proof "I have had wonderful relief
since I used your Liniment on my
knee. To think one application gave
me relief. Sorry I haven't space to
tell you the history. Thanking you
for what your remedy has done for
me." James S. Ferguson rhlladel-

these spring colds are annoying and

Denver April 10. John D. Rocke-
feller . Jr. himself a Baptist has
agreed to contribute toward the erec-
tion of a Roman Catholic church .it
Berwind Colo. one of the coal cams
of the Colorado Fuel & Iron com
pany. Mr. Rockefeller has also ex-
pressed a willingness to co-operate
in building a Frotestant or a Catho-
lic church or both in every Colorado
Fuel & Iron camp where tho need of
and desire therefor has beeu mani-
fested by a sufficient number of the
residents of the community to assure
adequate support and permanence of
worship.
In agreeing to contribute toward
the erection of churches Mr. Rocke-
feller has stipulated that neither he
himself nor the company shall as-
sume any responsibility for or con-
trol over them. "Any church work
to be successful must be organized
and controlled by the community in
which it is situated." Mr. Rockefeller
wrote to the officers of the company
in connection with his first gift for
this purpose.
The Colorado Fuel & Iron company
will lease at a nominal rental to
the congregation of Berwind a site on
company property for the new church
which is to be erected there. The
leased tract is to be under sole con-
trol of the Roman Catholic church so
long as it is used for church pur-
poses. In carrying out the scheme of co-'
operation outlined in the industrial
representation plan adopted by the
Colorado Fuel & Iron company and
its employes after Mr. Rockefeller's
visit to Colorado last fall the com-
pany is providing additional bath and
club houses. Mr. Rockefeller person-
ally agreed to erect an emergency
hospital at the coal camp at rrlmero
Colorado and at the iron mining
camp at Sunrise Wyoming.
Considerable care has Taeen devoted
to the design of the new Catholic
church to be erected at Berwind for
it is expected to serve as a type for
church buildings in other camps. Tho
plan evolved was that of a Spanish
mission type of building constructed
of cement blocks and covered with
white stucco. It is contemplated
that in every mining camp the church
buildings shall be the dominating
structures both In location and ar-
chitectural treatment. It is believed
that the influence for good exerted there will be selected a different do-
by the churches will be enhanced if sign from that adopted for the Catho-
the structures are both dignified and lie church edifices though one equal-
simple. For the Protestant churches ly pleasing and appropriate.
