COUNTRY PARTY RACE THE COLORADO STATESMAN LABOR SHALL BE FREE THE JOURNAL OF THE STATE INAUGURAL ADDRESS Of President Theodore Roosevelt, the Most Popular and Most Astute President the Nation has Ever Known. Demands Courage and Devotion to High Ideals. VOL. XI. INAUGURA Of President Theodore Roose Most Astute President Known. Demands votion to My Fellow Citizens: No people on earth have more cause to be thankful than ours, and this is said severently, in no spirit of boastfulness in our own strength, but with gratitude to the Giver of Good who has blessed us with the conditions which have enabled us to achieve so large a measure or well-being and of happiness. To us as a people, it has been granted,to lay the foundation of our national life in a new continent. We are the heirs of the ages, and yet we have had to pay few of the penalties which in old countries are exacted by the dead hand of a bygone civilization. We have not been obliged to fight for our existence against any alien race; and yet our life has called for the vigor and effort without which the manlier and hardier virtues wither away. Under such conditions it would be our own fault if we failed; and the success which we have had in the past, the success which we confidently believe the future will bring, should cause in us no feeling of vainglory, but rather a deep and abiding realization of all which life has offered us; a full acknowledgment of the responsibility which is ours; and a fixed determination to show that under a free government a mighty people can thrive best, alike as regards the things of the body and the things of the soul. Much has been given to us, and much will rightfully be expected from us. We have duties to others and duties to ourselves; and we can shirk neither. We have become a great nation, forced by the fact of its greatness into relations with the other nations of the earth, and we must behave as beseems a people with such responsibilities. Toward all other nations, large and small, our attitude must be one of cordial and sincere friendship. We must show not only in our words but in our deeds that we are earnestly desirous of securing their good will by acting toward them in a spirit of just and generous recognition of all their rights. But justice and generosity in a nation, as in an individual, count most when shown not by the weak but by the strong. While ever careful to refrain from wronging others, we must be no less insistent that we are not wronged ourselves. We wish peace; but we wish the Social and Natural History Society, Denver, Colo Saved By Pa RAC ORAD HE JOURNAL L ADDRESS velt, the Most Popular and the Nation has Ever Courage and De- high Ideals. peace of justice, the peace of righteousness. We wish it because we think it is right and not because we are afraid. No weak nation that acts manfully and justly should ever have cause to fear us, and no strong power should ever be able to single us out, as a subject for insolent aggression. Our relations with the other powers of the world are important; but still more important are our relations among ourselves. Such growth in wealth, in population and in power as this nation has seen during the century and a quarter of its national life is inevitably accompanied by a like growth which are ever before every nation that rises to greatness. Power invariably means both responsibility and danger. Our forefathers faced certain peril which we have outgrown. We now face other perils the very existence of which it was impossible that they should foresee. Modern life is both complex and intense, and the tremendous changes wrought by the extraordinary industrial development of the last half century are felt in every fiber of our social and political being. Never before have men tried so vast and formidable an experiment as that of administering the affairs of a continent under the forms of a democratic republic. The conditions which have told for our marvelous material wellbeing, which have developed in a very high degree our energy, self-reliance, and individual initiative, have also brought the care and anxiety inseparable from the accumulation of great wealth in industrial centers. Upon the success of our experiment much depends; not only as regards our own welfare, but the welfare of mankind. If we fail, the cause of free self-government throughout the world will rock to its foundation; and therefore our responsibility is heavy, to ourselves, to the world as it is to day and to the generations vet unborn. There is no good reason why we should fear the future, but there is every reason why we should face it seriously, neither hiding from ourselves the gravity of the problems before us nor fearing to approach those problems with the unbending, unflinching purpose to solve them right. Yet, after all, though the problems are new, though the tasks set before us differ from the tasks set before our fathers who founded and preserved this Republic, the spirit in which these tasks must be undertaken and those problems faced, if our duty is to be well done, remains essentially unchanged. We know that self-government is difficult. We know that no people needs such high traits of character as that people which seeks to govern its affairs aright through the freely expressed will of the freemen who compose it. But we have faith that we shall not prove false to the memories of the men of the mighty past. They did their work, they left us the splendid heritage we now enjoy. We in our turn have an assured confidence that we shall be able to leave this heritage unwasted and enlarged to our children and our THEODORE ROOSEVELT THEODORE ROOSEVELT AND President and Vice President THEODORE ROOSEVELT E PLURIBUS UNUM CHAS WARREN FAIRBANKS THEODORE ROOSEVELT AND CHARLES W. FAIRBANKS, President and Vice President of the United States. children's children. To do so we must show, not merely in great crises, but in the every-day affairs of life, the qualities of practical intelligence, of courage, of hardihood and endurance, and above all the power of devotion to a lofty ideal, which made great the men who founded this Republic in the days of Washington which made great the men who preserved this Republic in the days of Abraham Lincoln. Jockey Bonner gives every promise of developing into the new colored Archer of the American turf. He is certainly the best rider at the Oakland track at present and one of the few boys that can ride a waiting race. As a general rule "good horses" make good jockeys, but Booner displays natural aptitude for the saddle, and has taken advantage of the opportunities presented. For the past decade colored jockeys have been in obscurity. There have been no successors of Isaac Murphy, Hamilton, Lonnie Clayton, "Soup" Perkins and Felix Carr. In the older days, especially in the East, there were generally three of four colored boys rid- DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, MARCH 11, 1905. ing in every race. Nowadays there is rarely more than one colored boy, and, if he shows any pretension to class, the white jockeys generally make it interesting for him. He is kept in a pocket, or forced to go around his field, despite the vigilance of racing officials. "Long Shot" Conley was frequently given the knotted end of the rope, as he was very unpopular with his brother pigskin artists of the Caucasin race. Bonner appears to be a well-behaved lad and is as popular with the white boys as one of his color can expect to be. The public that bets its good money has no race prejudice, however, and, in consequence, many play Bonner as they did Felix Carr in the days of the old Bay District track.—Examiner. CHAS. WARREN FAIRBANKS D CHARLES W. FAIRBANKS, President of the United States. A Bright Legal Light. Miss Perle E. Jones of Hill City, Kans., niece of Mr. and Mrs. J. W. Moore of this city, is one of the most talented young ladies of the Sunflower state. An extract from the Topeka Plaindealer says: Miss Perle E. Jones, daughter of Attorney Geo. W. Jones of Hill City, Graham county, is virtually partner in the practice of law with her father. The first murder case in which Miss Jones took an active part was the case of State vs Henry Nelson last May which resulted in a verdict of not guilty. After the defendant was acquainted he offered to deed to her father a fine bottom farm containing a hundred and sixty acres, within two miles of the town of Bogue for his services. Her father said to Mr. Nelson: "You may deed the farm to Perle, you owe your freedom to her." The farm was at once deeded to Miss Jones as her first fee. Representative Witt's bill prohibiting white people from attending Negro meetings was defeated in the House Saturday, by a vote of 38 to 29. The defeat of this measure should have been overwhelming. We do not know Mr. Witt's motive in offering such a bill—whether it was to prevent the rough element of whites disturbing the peace and persons of Negro gatherings or because of his fear of social equality. At any rate the law already established providing for peace-breakers should be sufficient in the former case. And as to the latter, his fears are groundless. Whites as a general thing only attend Negro religious meetings and such religious associations with Negroes—with good earnest prayerful Negroes, but work for their own good.—Hot Springs Echo. "Let Me Down Easy Boys." A recent dispatch from Denton, Maryland, gives the following account of an incident that occurred at a funeral there: Talk won't prove cheap for Sam Johnson, a dusky ventriloquist of Queenstown, who broke up the funeral of a colored brother here, for this afternoon he found himself in the hands of the sheriff, with the prospect of a heavy fine tomorrow morning. Sam, like most voice-jugglers, is a practical joker. His humor is appreciated in his own town, but when he went to the length of stopping a funeral the Negroes of the place considered it carrying a joke too far. So Sam is in durance and the colored brother is under ground, several hours behind schebule, with a badly damaged coffin. Sam was resplendent in a "beaver" hat and "Prince Albert" coat when he joined the mouners on the way to the cemetery. Everybody took him for a visiting parson, and great was the respect shown to him. He marched solemnly to the grave with the rest and assumed a reverent attitude while the local preacher uttered a fervent prayer. Then the pallbearers edged the coffin toward the brink, ready to lower it into the grave at the word. "Let me down easy, boys," seemed to come in muffled tones from the coffin. The pallbearers started and looked at one another. "Lower me gently, you charcoal chumps," the voice continued. Everybody stared and mourners nearest to the grave drew back. "If I've got to be buried I want to lie comfortable," the voice went on. That was enough. The pall-bearers dropped the ropes, the preacher his books, the mourners their hats and handkerchiefs, and the entire funeral party, except Sam, dusted down the road to the cemetery gate. Sam stayed where he was, clasping his sides, until he saw several of the more courageous brethren returning. Then, he too, fled. NO. 24. The plucky ones pried off the coffin lid and found that the corpse was dead beyond a doubt. Sam was not able to keep so good a joke to himself, and in a few hours the sheriff had him. Prof. T. A. Green, of Los Angeles, California, has been appointed second assistant journal clerk of the Senate of the state of California. He is the first Negro to be appointed to a clerical position in the legislature of that state. Prof. Green is making a splendid record in the far West. New Orleans, La., March 5.—A fierce race war is raging at Senatobia, a backwoods town in Mississippi, and from the meager reports which have been received here up to the present time it is believed that at least ten men have been killed and many injured. The trouble started this afternoon, when a Negro struck a traveling man in the face with a pair of brass knuckles. The white man opened fire with a revolver, and since then hundreds of shots have been fired at fleeing Negroes in all parts of the town. The first report of the American Trust and savings Bank of Jackson, Miss., has just been made public. This bank was opened last October. Every share of the stock is owned by Negroes, and employees are colored. Not a white man has anything to do with the bank, and the funds deposited therein are all the savings of Negroes in Jackson. In the three months which the bank has been in operation funds to the amount of $64,000 have been handeled. The dividends for the first quarter amounted to 20 per cent. of the capital. Andrew L. Horton, colored, who for several years has been postmaster at Way, a small town near Jackson, Miss is charging the U. S. government with holding him in peonage because the postoffice department steadily refuses to accept his resignation which he alleges has been tendered upon several occasions. Horton gets a salary of $150. per year and declares that he is losing money by holding onto the job or rather the job holding on to him. As no one is anxious to succeed him he has to stay on and his term is liable to last his lifetime. We have read several instances in which colored men have sought federal positions, but this is ourfirst notice of a case in which one has sought to get away from a federal job. THE B·L·JAMES M.& M.

GALBRAITH EXECUTED FIRST HANGING UNDER NEW LAW Murderer of Wife and Child Suffers Extreme Penalty of the Law—Only a Few Witnesses Present. Denver, March 7.—A Canon City dispatch last night says: Azel D. Galbraith was executed at 8'clock to-night for the murder of his wife and son at Russell Gulch last year. He walked to the trap with a firm step and showed no fear of the fate he met. His neck was broken and death was practically instantaneous. Every provision of the law governing executions was observed and there were only the witnesses allowed by law. Not since Friday night, June 26, 1896, when Warden Cleghorn executed Deonocio Romero, Albert Noble and William Holt, for the murder of Night Watchman John Solomon of Trinidad, had a legal hanging taken place in Colorado until to-night. Galbraith exhibited remarkable courage during the terrible ordeal he was called upon to face. His walk to the place of execution was firm and elastic and he manifested but little concern, apparently having made up his mind to meet his fate bravely. He was given an opportunity to speak and he said that he committed the crime for which he was about to pay the penalty and that strong drink caused his downfall. He warned others of its fearful consequences. When he finished his hands were tled behind him, the black cap was adjusted, the rope placed about his neck, and he stepped upon the trap, which in a few seconds launched him into eternity. The weight dropped about eight feet and the neck of the prisoner was broken, resulting practically in instant death. After a few minutes Dr. T. D. Palmer, the penitentiary physician, examined the body and announced that life was extinct. It was cut down and taken away to be prepared for burial. The execution was witnessed by Warden John Cleghorn; Thomas Cody, sheriff of Gilpin county; James Beaman, former sheriff of Pueblo county; A. Sandberg, sheriff of Clear Creek county; T. D. Palmer, penitentiary physician; Rev. Mr. Lucas, chaplain of the penitentiary; William Granger, deputy warden; Thomas Scott, yard master; Clarence Cleghorn, overseer; W. H. Peabody, W. H. Arnett, Capt. T. W. Connor and C. A. Lindquist of Denver and Dr. F. M. Cochems of Salida. JAPANESE ADVANCING. Report That Russian Army is Entirely Enveloped. New Chwang, March 6.—It is reported here that the scouts of General Nogi's and General Kuroki's armies are already in touch behind Taps pass. Sakhetun, March 6.—According to reports just received, the Japanese have advanced to attack along the whole line. Fighting has been in progress on the right flank of the Russian army near the imperial tombs since morning, but at this hour it appears to be lessening, and the roar of artillery indicates that the fighting is gradually sweeping further and further from Mukden. New Chwang, March 6.—There is every indication that the great Japanese movement for the envelopment of Mukden has so far met with overwhelming success and that that stronghold of the Russians will prove another Sedan. In the past few days little has been heard from the fighting along the strongly fortified central positions, and it is believed that the Japanese center is only required to hold its ground while the wings stretch far to the northward for the purpose of encircling the Russian flanks and threatening the railway. General Nogi's Third army from Port Arthur has advanced far on the left wing and swept all before it. Nogi's men are revealing in the field work, which they consider child's play after the siege of Port Arthur. Fusan, Korea, March 6.—The left wing of the Japanese left army is continuing its advance in the direction of Mukden, attacking small villages in the angle north of the Hun river and west of the railroad. The Russian center near the railroad began retiring last night, the Japanese advancing on a hill and capturing fifteen guns, including howitzers and machine guns. Testimony Against Kansas. Washington, March 7.—The hearing in the Kansas-Colorado suit was resumed yesterday morning before Commissioner Richardson. Ex-Governor Brodie of Arizona, Joseph L. B. Alexander, an attorney of Phoenix, Arizona, and F. H. Newell, chief engineer of the reclamation service, were examined. Ex-Governor Brodie testified that he went to Arizona twenty years ago, when it had but about 9,000 inhabitants, and at a time when there was very little development in the territory; that during the last twenty years over 315,000 acres of land have been irrigated and several hundred thousand acres more could be added to the irrigated area; that it was necessary to preserve the present development, and to secure any future development in the territory that all waters should be used for irrigation purposes. Mr. Alexander corroborated the state ments made by Governor Brodie. Driven from Mormon Church. Salt Lake, March 7.—Former United States Senator Frank J. Cannon has been disfellowshipped from the Mormon Church for "un-Christianlike conduct and apostacy." This action of the church authorities, which was announced to-day, followed a hearing in the city of Ogden before the local bishopric, with whom charges had been preferred against Elder Cannon, who is editor of the Salt Lake Tribune. The charges were based on editorial utterances of the Tribune, including "An Address to the Earthly King of the Kingdom of God." Mr. Cannon admitted the authorship. DOINGS AT WASHINGTON The Senate in executive session March 6th, confirmed the nominations of ambassadors, all members of the Cabinet, of former Senator Cockrell of Missouri to be interstate commerce commissioner, and of former Senator Quarles of Wisconsin to be United States judge for the eastern district of Wisconsin.

Miller, at Yokohama, Japan; J. Linn Rogers, at Shanghai, China; George W. Roosevelt, at Brussels, Belgium. It is stated that Secretary Shaw will retire from the cabinet in February, 1906, when his four-year term is completed. Owing to the failure of Congress to provide new legislation for the government of the canal zone, Secretary Taft was confronted with the question as to whether he could continue to administer the affairs of the canal zone. This question he has decided in the affirmative. The amendment proposed to the sundry civil appropriation bill by Representative Bonynge for $30,000 to be expended for machinery to complete the new Denver mint has carried. This appropriation is made necessary in order that sufficient money may be on hand to install the necessary machinery so that actual coinage may commence on scheduled time, July 1st. The special session of the Senate was opened March 6th by loud applause for Vice President Fairbanks when he appeared in the chamber to preside. The new senators, Piles of Washington, Bulkley of Connecticut, Flint of California, Nixon of Nevada, Burkett of Nebraska, Raynor of Maryland, Carter of Montana, Sutherland of Utah and Hemenway of Indiana, were warmly greeted by their colleagues. The Court of Appeals has decided that a Porto Rican in this country possesses the necessary qualifications for citizenship to make him eligible for employment in the government service. The opinion decided the case of Juan Rodriguez, a Porto Rican who applied in February of last year for employment in the Washington navy yard, and who was denied the right of examination by the board of employment of the yard on the ground that he was not a citizen of the United States. President Roosevelt transmitted to Congress a message endorsing measures pending before Congress intended to prevent the spread of contagious diseases of animals from one state to another or to foreign countries. The message points out that the right of the secretary of agriculture to regulate the interstate movement of animals exposed but not actually diseased, must be recognized if the spread of such diseases is to be prevented. The president urged that the proposed remedial legislation be enacted into law before the adjournment of Congress. Commissioner James R. Garfield of the bureau of corporations has instituted a rigid investigation of operations of the oil industry in Kansas and contiguous states. In response to a resolution of the House of Representatives the investigation of the oil industry will be carried on as rapidly as is consistent with thoroughness. It is not the purpose of Commissioner Garfield to confine the inquiry to Kansas. It will not be circumscribed by state or geographical lines. It is the intention of the commissioner to make the investigation as exhaustive as the resolution of Representative Campbell contemplates, the purpose being to develop all the facts regarding the operations of the oil trust. Postmaster General Cortelyou will shortly resign as chairman of the Republican National Committee. He authorized the following statement: "Upon assuming the duties of postmaster general, Mr. Cortelyou announced that he would retire from the chairmanship of the Republican National Committee. At the expiration of a few days required to dispose of certain necessary details relating to the committee's participation in the inaugural ceremonies, the appointment of a vice chairman already selected by Chairman Cortelyou under the authority conferred upon him will be announced and the vice chairman will become the acting chairman of the committee. Harry S. New of Indianapolis is at present vice chairman of the committee and the probabilities are that he will be selected at acting chairman."

Of all the diseases known, with which women are afflicted, kidney disease is the most fatal. In fact, unless early and correct treatment is applied, the weary patient seldom survives. Being fully aware of this, Mrs. Pinkham, early in her career, gave exhaustive study to the subject, and in producing her great remedy for woman'sills — Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound — was careful to see that it contained the correct combination of herbs which was sure to control that fatal disease, woman's kidney troubles. The Vegetable Compound acts in harmony with the laws that govern the entire female system, and while there are many so called remedies for kidney troubles, Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound is the only one especially prepared for women, and thousands have been cured of serious kidney derangements by it. Derangements of the feminine organs quickly affect the kidneys, and when a woman has such symptoms as pain or weight in the loins, backache, bearing down pains, urine too frequent, scanty or high colored, producing scalding or burning, or deposits like brick dust in it; unusual thirst, swelling of hands and feet, swelling under the eyes or sharp pains in the back running down the inside of her groin, she may be sure her kidneys are affected and should lose no time in combating the disease with Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, the woman's remedy for woman'sills. The following letters show how marvelously successful it is. Lydia E.

A TRIAL FREE—Address Foster-Milburn Co., Buffalo, N. Y. For sale by all dealers. Price, 50 cents. The street railways of San Francisco have decided not to carry soiled clothing. But who will inspect that worn by the passengers? An Intelligent Dog. John Chase, a stage driver between Saratoga and Dillon, Wyoming, is the owner of a shepherd dog of more than ordinary canine intelligence. Recently Chase was snowbound in the mountains. His horses were down and night was coming on. Not thinking the dog would understand, but being desperate, Chase told the brute to go back on the trail to a miner's cabin and summon assistance. The dog trotted off, reached the cabin, scratched on the door and barked and attracted the inmates. The dog then ran out on the trail in the direction of his snowbound master, and the miners were made to understand that something was wrong. They at once followed the dog and assisted Chase in getting out of the snow. Chase would not sell the dog at any price. Success Summed Up. "What is the secret of success?" asked the Sphinx.

It hardly pays to laugh before you are certain of facts, for it is sometimes humiliating to think of afterwards. "When I was a young girl I was a lover of coffee but was sick so much the doctor told me to quit and I did but after my marriage my husband begged me to drink it again as he did not think it was the coffee caused the troubles. "So I commenced it again and continued about 6 months until my stomach commenced acting bad and choking as if I had swallowed something the size of an egg. One doctor said it was neuralgia and indigestion. "One day I took a drive with my husband three miles in the country and I drank a cup of coffee for dinner. I thought sure I would die before I got back to town to a doctor. I was drawn double in the buggy and when my husband hitched the horse to get me out into the doctor's office, misery came up in my throat and seemed to shut my breath off entirely, then left all in a flash and went to my heart. The doctor pronounced it nervous heart trouble and when I got home I was so weak I could not sit up. "My husband brought my supper to my bedside with a nice cup of hot coffee but I said: 'Take that back, dear, I will never drink another cup of coffee if you gave me everything you are worth, for it is just killing me.' He and the others laughed at me and said: "The idea of coffee killing anybody." "Well,' I said, 'it is nothing else but coffee that is doing it." "In the grocery one day my husband was persuaded to buy a box of Postum which he brought home and I made it for dinner and we both thought how good it was but said nothing to the hired men and they thought they had drunk coffee until we laughed and told them. Well we kept on with Postum and it was not long before the color came back to my cheeks and I got stout and felt as good as I ever did in my life. I have no more stomach trouble and I know I owe it all to Postum in place of coffee. "My husband has gained good health on Postum, as well as baby and I, and we all think nothing is too good to say about it." Name given by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich. COLORADO LEGISLATURE The Stephen eight-hour bill was passed on second reading in the Senate March 1st without a roll call. The minority reports of Senator Clayton were voted down and the majority report of the labor committee accepted with but two votes cast against it, those of Senators John Kennedy and B. Jefferson. Senators Morgan and De Long, Republicans, voted for the minority reports, but changed their vote on the final issue. Senator Ballinger broke from his party and made a speech favoring the majority report. He denied that the Democrats were enemies of the eight-hour measure, and thought there was merit in the Stephen bill. The anomaly of securing all the results aimed at in the passage of a bill through its defeat will be presented in the Senate when the finance committee makes a report on one of Senator Taylor's educational measures. The bill in question provides for an appropriation out of which students attending the state educational institutions shall be reimbursed for their railroad fare in cases where their homes are located more than 100 miles from the school. The object is two-fold: To give the young men and women on the western slope better opportunities for an education in Colorado, and to build up the state educational institutions. At a meeting of the Senate finance committee yesterday afternoon the bill was given the right of way in discussion. No vote was taken, but the committee reached a tacit conclusion to kill the bill in question, but to accomplish Senator Taylor's purpose in another way. This was to include in the appropriation for each institution an amount sufficient for reimbursing the railroad fare of all students who would come under the provisions of Senator Taylor's bill. The proposition met with much favor at the hands of the committee, and there is little doubt that it will be received favorably by the Senate. There is a strong feeling in the House, also, that such a measure should pass—Denver News. Irrigation Bills. "A monopoly is planned by these corporate interests whereby they expect to obtain absolute control of all the water used for irrigation purposes in the state of Colorado, which they expect to farm out at excorbitant prices," was the direct charge made by Representative C. E. Street during the hearing before the house committee on agriculture and irrigation on House Bills 303, 304 and 305, introduced by Representative Cannon, says the Denver News. H. B. 303 provides that a person or association entitled to a certain quantity of water, if he does not need it for irrigation, may store it in reservoirs. H. B. 304 provides that water for purely domestic uses shall always have a prior claim to that used by irrigation, and stretches the definition of "domestic uses" to include the sprinkling of streets. H. B. 305 fixes an irrigation season of six months, from May 1st to November 1st, when the claims of irrigation users shall have precedent, and a storage season of six months, from November 1st to May 1st, when reservoirs shall have precedence. Farmers from all parts of the state were present at the hearing yesterday, and they indignantly expressed their sentiments at this "cold-blooded steal," as they termed it. Platt Rogers and J. H. Sanborn of Greeley appeared in favor of the bills. Representative Cannon, who introduced them, was not present. Who the three advocates of the measures represented were was not evident, as they all distinctly stated that they had no direct interest in the matter, but merely thought for various reasons the bills should pass. Representative Street, Col. A. H. Meredith of Fort Lupton and Harry Lubers led the fight against the bills. "Why, such a bill as No. 303," said Mr. Lubers, "would permit two or three men to obtain a monopoly of all the water in the state. Take the Arkansas river, for example. At Pueblo has a normal flow of 600 feet. The first five priorities entirely cover that. Suppose they should use their water night and day, whether they needed it or not, and when it is not needed for irrigation to store it in reservoirs. There would be practically no water for the hundreds of farmers below them." "When we take the three bills together," said Representative Street, "they comprise all the legal aid necessary to carry out the largest steal ever perpetrated in Colorado. It is nothing more or less than a complete monopoly on all the water in the state—water that is absolutely necessary to the well-being and prosperity of Colorado. "With one bill allowing men owning prior rights to store all of their water, with another giving domestic use precedence, and including the sprinkling of lawns in that, and with a third limiting the irrigation season to six months beginning with May, when half of the irrigation is done in March and April, the large reservoir companies would have absolute and complete control of all the irrigation water in the state." The House committee on judiciary decided to report to the House S. B. 54, by Parks, without any recommendation. This is the bill repealing the act allowing county judges to hold court for each other, and has attracted as much opposition as any other measure that has succeeded in running the gauntlet of one house. A majority of the committee was reported to be opposed to the bill, and these members agreed to Senator Parks' suggestion that the House be allowed to fight it out over the measure. The House, on February 28th, took up the resolutions offered by Mr. Stewart to the memory of four members of previous Legislatures who had died during the time between the adjournment of the Fourteenth General Assembly and the taking up of the Fifteenth. These were Speaker James B. Sanford, W. B. Slawson, Dr. Paul of the Fourteenth Assembly, and J. A. Crawford of Douglas county, who had served in several assemblies. Feeling speeches of appreciation were made by Messrs. Breckenridge, Stewart, Cannon, Thomas and others, after which the House adjourned for the day, as a mark of respect to the deceased members.

We know that thousands of men and women although in the advanced stages of feebleness and emaciation—pallid, wasted and broken-down with all the terrible symptoms of hacking coughs, night-sweats, hectic fever, absolute prostration, and even bleeding from the lungs—have been restored by the use of this marvelous medicine to permanent health, strength and vitality.

Colorado. THE INAUGURAL ADDRESS. President Roosevelt's inaugural address will rank among the best ever delivered. It was remarkable for its brevity. Yet it reviewed the growth of the nation and pointed out the essential elements of its great power. It breathes throughout a desire for peace, order and continued prosperity in the nation, while it pleads for the open door of opportunity for all classes and conditions of citizens. On the whole no inauguration speech since Lincoln's second, equaled it in pith, force and elegance of diction. It seems to have been delivered under ideal conditions which give a happy augury for the success of the new term of administration. The weather was all that could be desired. The sun shone out in all its bright effulgence, while the atmosphere washed out and purified by rains the preceding night, was soft, chaste, balmy and inspiring. The inauguration was the grandest and most spectacular pagen in the history of the country. The parade embraced a greater variety of races, and in the number of representatives of military and civic organizations far outstripped anything before seen whe whole affair was a fitting emblem of the power and grandeur of the great Republic and of the sterling worth of the popular and able president. POLITICAL RECOGNITION. The president is proving that on the race question he is not a man of mere words, but emphatically one of deeds. We think it was Senator Tillman or Gov. Vardaman, or some one of that ilk who, during their controversy with the president over Negro appointments at the South, questioned whether he would dare appoint a colored postmaster in Ohio, New York or any other community of the North or West. The answer has come in a way which must give great shock to the nerves of these fire-eating doubters. The appointment of Charles W. Anderson as collector of internal revenue for the second district of New York is a handsome and substantial recognition not merely of the Negro vote of New York but of the whole country. It is a fine position requiring intelligence, energy and executive ability of a high order. The office employs a large number of deputies and clerks, and is one which some of the leading politicians of every state are eager to corral, because of the emoluments, the power and prestige which it carries with it. Mr. Anderson has been for many years a leading and influential politician of the State of New York, and has heretofore filled some important political positions, notably that of secretary to the States Treasurer. He is a well educated man, a pleasing and forceful ora- Notice is hereby given that the following named settler has filed notice of his intention to make final proof in suit that he will be made before register of United States land office at Denver, Colorado on April 12, 1952.

WATER TOWER NEVER USED. Intended for National Soldiers' Home Which Was, Not Built. Located far up on the hills to the west of Lake Assawampsett, in Lakeville, Mass., stands a water tower, built about twenty years ago. It is an imitation of the old stone mill at Newport. About twenty-five years ago, according to the story, the national soldiers' home, located at Quincy, was to be moved to Lakeville. A tract of about THE STUDIO 100 acres was secured there, occupying a beautiful position, from which every lake in the great chain was clearly visible. Plans were made for the erection of buildings. The first requisite was water. Accordingly a 60-foot well was dug. A place to store the water was next needed, and this came in the form of the old tower. It was built of field stone, cemented together. Six columns were constructed with arches between, and a big column in the center to support the whole. Above these columns the massive stone tank was built, which would contain thousands of gallons of water. An arched roof was added and it was attractively set off with a weather vane. Shortly after the completion of the tower, work on the home was stopped, and it has never been renewed. PIGEON CAUSED HER DEATH. Pet Missing Several Months Found Blocking Up the Stovepine In the Wiltshire village of Zeals, England, a death has been caused by a pet pigeon. Two young women living at the rectory were found unconscious in their bedroom on Monday morning. One of the girls, Miss Maude of Southampton, was head before the doctor arrived, but the other revived after some time. It appears that a fire had been lighted over-night in a small stove which was connected with the main chimney by a flue. The girls retired to rest noticing nothing except that the fire smoked considerably. When the stove was removed for investigation the body of a pet pigeon, which had been missing for some months, was found blocking the pipe. The poisonous fumes had thus been driven back in to the bedroom. Grapes as Diet. Many well-known physicians insist that to eat and repeat the performance three or four time; a day will work wonders with thin, nervous anaemic people who are prone to worry and whose digestion is out of order. All we know is that the grape has wonderful gastric virtues and is perhaps the most digestible fruit in existence. NOTICE FOR PUBLICATION. Department of the Interior, Land Office at Denver, Coio.

A BRILLIANT PAGEANT AT ROOSEVELT'S INAUGURATION Fine Weather for Once—Immense Crowds of Visitors from All Sections—Most Impressive Inauguration Ever Witnessed. Washington, March 5.—The most brilliant and impressive inauguration ceremonies which the citizens of Washington have ever prepared has passed into the history of the Republic. Theo does Roosevelt did not ride to the capitol, hitch his horse to a shade tree, enter the building and take the oath of office, booted and spurred. The traditional Jeffersonian simplicity was replaced by a pageant, which has not been surpassed in the annals of the Nation. It was the first national inauguration since the Civil War. The South sent up its warriors and its state officials. Men who fought each other for years under different flags; men who fought together in the war with Spain under one flag; executive officers of the state who upheld the stars and bars, and those who stood for the flag of the Union, marched together in review before their common President—a soldier of the Republic. Fully 200,000 visitors gazed with wonder and enthusiasm at the district's handwork for honoring its President during the day. The night was notable for the unequaled splendor of the inaugural ball and the wonderful display of fireworks. Promptly at 1 o'clock the President entered his carriage at the White house and with a detachment of his old regiment, the famous Rough Riders, commanded by Col. Alexander Brodie, riding on either side as his personal escort, started for the capitol to take the prescribed oath as the Nation's chief executive. Behind the Rough Riders were the carriages of the vice president and of the Cabinet, and then came a reminder of the grim past, a detachment of picked veterans of the Grand Army of the Republic, whose gallant step belled the gray, locks and spare form of the old soldiers. They led a detachment of veterans of the Spanish-American War, of men who had taken part in the famous march to Peking and of soldiers who had campaigned in the jungles of the Philippines. Closing the escorting column came veterans of the regular army and navy, the whole veteran organization led by Maj. Gen. O. O. Howard of Civil War fame. The President and his escort moved along the avenue at a foot pace, owing to the presence in the column of the dismounted veterans, to the Senate wing of the capitol. In the presence of as many of his fellow citizens as could be crowded into the Senate chamber, Charles Warren Fairbanks was at high noon yesterday inducted into the office of vice president of the United States. The solemn and impressive ceremony only only occupied about five minutes, the oath being administered by Senator Frye as president pro tem. of the Senate. After reaching the capitol the President devoted some time to signing bills and closing the business of the session. The windows of the capitol were crowded; there was a deep fringe of spectators along the roofs of the Senate and House and the dome. The trees of the park were loaded with boys and men; the broad acres of the park itself were crowded with thousands upon thousands. With the appearance of the President from the Senate chamber the shouting began, swelling into a moar like, Niagara, rising to cyclonic effects and continuing while the Senate and members of the House, the Cabinet, the Supreme Court, the heads of the army and navy, ambassadors and ministers, representatives of every subordinate branch of the government and a great company of guests filed out of the Senate doors and filled the immense platform. At length all was ready for the crowning ceremony. The sea of humanity was stilled. The President advanced to take the oath of office. With his hand upon the Bible held by the chief justice he reverently repeated the oath, kissed the book at the end, and Theodore Roosevelt became President. He then delivered his inaugural, which surprised his hearers by its brevity. As the ceremony closed he was again greeted by the roaring cheers of the immense throng. Companied by his escort and followed by troops and civilian paraders, he started for the White House. It was the most perfect column that ever marched in an inaugural parade. While the whole military column was a marvel and a delight, as indicated by the continuing tornado of cheers where it passed, there were elements of special interest. The Ninth cavalry, that splendid colored regiment, received marked attention. The crowds went wild over the section of Rough Riders. The scouts from the Philippines and the Porto Rico battalion excited intense interest. The brigade of cadet battalions from many states, organized by General Chaffee, attracted universal attention and received unbounded applause. The civic grand division of eight brigades, in three divisions, made up of over fifty organizations, was in every respect better organized than ever before. Big Fire, at Gunnison. Denver, March 6.—A Gunnison dispatch yesterday says: Gunnison was visited by another severe fire this morning about 3 o'clock. The Republican office building, formerly known as the Tabor house and Pallasades hotel, a two-story stone structure, was damaged to the extent of several thousand dollars by fire and water. It is thought that the fire originated from crossed electric wires in the building. Where the wires were most numerous the fire was the fiercest. The building was sold a few days ago by C. T. Sills to J. E. Adams of Salida, who put in considerable furniture and was preparing to open the place. The building was insured for $10,000, furniture for $4,500. Republican priting plant and stock $3,500, and postoffice furniture for $750. OXF0RDS We are showing advanced Spring Styles in Low Shoes.

When she was fourteen years old, Mrs Ida L. Brown had St. Vitus' dance. She finally got over the most noticeable features of the strange ailment, but was still troubled by very uncomfortable sensations, which she recently described a follows: "One hand, half of my face, and half of my tongue would get cold and numt. These feelings would come on, last for about ten minutes, and then go away, several times a day. Besides I would have palpitation of the heart, and my strength would get so low that I could hardly breathe. As time went on these spells kept coming oftener and growing worse. The numbness would sometimes extend over half my body." "How did you get rid of them?" "It seemed for a long time as if I never could get rid of them. It was not until about six years ago that I found a remedy that and virtue enough in it to reach my case. That was Dr. Williams' Pink Pill. For Pale People, and they have since entirely cured me." "Did it take long to effect a cure?" "No! I hadn't taken the whole of the first box before I saw a great improvement. So I kept on using them, growing better all the time, until I had taken eight boxes and then I was perfectly well, and I have remained in good health ever since with one exception." "Oh! that was when I had the grip I was in bed, under the doctor's care, for two weeks. When I got up I had dreadful attacks of dizziness. I had to grasp hold of something or I would fall right down. I was just miserable, and when I saw the doctor was not helping me, I began to take Dr. Williams' Pink Pills again. In a short time they cured me of that trouble too, and I have never had any dizzy spells since." Mrs. Brown lives at No. 1705 DeWitt street, Mattoon, Illinois. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are without an equal for the rapid and thorough cure of nervous prostration. They expel the poison left in the system by such diseases as grip and are the best of tonics in all cases of weakness. They are sold by every druggist.

Then again because Defiance Starch is free from all injurious chemicals. If your grocer tries to sell you a 12-oz. package it is because he has a stock on hand which he wishes to dispose of before he puts in Defiance. He knows that Defiance Starch has printed on every package in large letters and figures "16 oz." Demand Defiance and save much time and money and the annoyance of the iron sticking. Defiance never sticks. After a couple have been married two weeks the neighbors lose all interest in them. For children teething, softens the air, reduces inflammation, allays pain, curbs what colds.

CHARGES OF BRIBERY CHARGES OF BRIBERY IN THE GOVERNORSHIP CONTEST Manager Herbert of the Colorado and Southern Railway and D. M. Sullivan, Postmaster at Cripple Creek, Arrested on Bribery Charges—Denial and Counter-Charges by Mr. Herbert. Denver, March 7.—The Republican this morning says: James M. Herbert, vice president and general manager of the Colorado & Southern Railway Company, and Daniel M. Sullivan, postmaster of Cripple Creek, were yesterday arrested charged with the bribery of Richard W. Morgan, a member of the State Senate, in the conspiracy existing, and of which they are accused of being a part, to retain Alva Adams as governor. Herbert had eight counts charged against him, and Sullivan had six. They were released on $5,000 bonds each, Frank Adams, president of the Fire and Police Board and brother to the gubernatorial claimant, going on the bond of Sullivan, while D. H. Dougan, president of the National Bank of Commerce, furnished bail for Herbert. Following is the statement made in writing by Senator Morgan of Boulder, a former coal miner, who was nominated and elected on the Republican ticket in the Twenty-second district: "To Joe, E. McDonald, as President To Jesse F. McDonald, as President of the Senate and as Presiding officer of the Joint Convention of the Fifteenth General Assembly. "Sir—I have to inform you that on the 2d day of March, 1905, one James M. Herbert and Daniel Sullivan offered and promised to pay the undersigned the sum of $1,500 to vote for the Hon. Alva Adams for governor in the contest now pending before this joint convention. Of this sum said James M. Herbert paid the sum of $750. This money I have given to George Stidger, district attorney for the city and county of Denver, for his official use. I have also given to him such information as he requires in his official capacity. "I also desire to lay the matter before the people of the state, the Senate and this joint convention, as it affects the question now pending before this convention. (Signed) "R. W. MORGAN." The following is J. M. Herbert's statement, read to the joint assembly by Representative Frewen: "Mr. Morgan came to my rooms in the Brown Palace hotel last Thursday with Mr. Daniel Sullivan. "Mr. Morgan stated that he and his people were for the seating of Mr. Adams, that Boulder county had gone for Mr. Adams and the laboring people in his section of the state were for Mr. Adams, and he had told them he would vote for Mr. Adams, and that he had told Governor Adams the same thing. That the pressure was so great from the Peabody people that they might drive him out of the state if he did not vote with them, as they were browbeating and bulldozing many Republican members of the Legislature and making threats against them in business and in politics. That he was convinced the Peabody people had no case, Mr. Morgan stated that he had been offered $3,000 by the Peabody people, and he ought to have $3,000 if he stood by Adams and incurred the enmity of the Peabody people. I told him that I would not pay any member of the Legislature to vote one way or the other in the governorship contest. Mr. Morgan was very insistent and finally he would take $1,500. I absolutely refused to have anything to do with him and he went away. Mr. Sullivan was present during the entire conversation. J. M. HERBERT. "I have read the above statement made by Mr. Herbert. It is true in every particular. DANIEL SULLIVAN.ery particular. DANIEL SULLIVAN." The Republican's account adds: "First fights and threats of bloodshed followed from the Adams-Herbert adherents, who have become desperate. Sullivan, who will be dealt with from Washington, attacked Richard Broad, Jr., and made threats against Frank W. Howbert and other leaders, who were placed under protection. Arrests of Herbert's henchmen on similar charges have been announced for to-day or tomorrow." The Democrats accuse Morgan of "playing the part assigned to him in the Peabody conspiracy designed to rob Adams of his seat." Sullivan Accuses Morgan Denver, March 7.—Daniel M. Sullivan, postmaster at Cripple Creek, who is accused by Senator Morgan of an attempt at bribery, makes the following statement: "This man Morgan approached me several days ago and told me in the presence of witnesses that he was anxious to vote for, Governor Adams because Peabody had failed to make a case. I told him that I had always believed he was tied up with the Peabody crowd, but he vehemently denied it. He pleaded with me to take him to Mr. Herbert, and, although I thought he was not honest with us, I did it. Fortunately I was in the room and heard him solicit the bribe and heard Mr. Herbert emphatically refuse to listen to his proposition. "If Mr. Morgan got this money, as he said, on March 2nd, then why did he wait until to-day before he made his statement public? That is a question he will have to answer before we are through with him, just as we will force him to tell what he got for bringing these charges." Speak for Governor Adams. Denver, March 7.—Yesterday Governor Adams' attorneys began arguments in his behalf in the contest lodged against him by James H. Peabody. Unlike the rule followed by the Republicans, the eight hours allowed the Democrats were divided between a number of attorneys. Milton Smith, chairman of the Democratic state central committee, opened the arguments and occupied one hour, from 10 to 11 o'clock. Samuel W. Belford spoke from 11 to noon. At 2 o'clock the arguments were taken up by former Senator John A. Rush, who spoke for two hours. Judge James A. Orr of Colorado Springs, a Republican, spoke in favor of Governor Adams, occupying the time from 4 to 5 o'clock. Taking Another Name. "Custom has made it almost universal for all male persons to bear the names of their parents," said an attacke of the local court the other morning. "It seems natural that it should be so. Nevertheless, there is nothing in the laws of this country prohibiting a man's taking another name, and no legal penalty attached to his doing so. There is always, however, a possibility of its being attended with inconvenience and perhaps loss to himself. "There is a way by which a man may change his name with the sanction of he law, and that is the only safe way. But the law requires him to assign some good reason for the change. Men have assigned various reasons for wishing to change their names. Sometimes a man wishes to drop his right name because it is of foreign origin and difficult for an American tongue to pronounce. This may injure him in his business, as there is such a thing as prejudice even in this free and enlightened commonwealth. Or his name may have in English an absurd or even vulgar meaning and subject him to unpleasant jokes, or it may associate him with some notorious criminal or be the counterpart of some name which history made infamous, or it may be misspelled and consequently mispronounced on his entry to this country.—Washington Star. Doing Great Work. Ward, Ark., March 6th—(Special.) —From all over the West reports come of cures of different forms of Kidney Disease by Dodd's Kidney Pills, and this place is not without evidence of the great work the Great American Kidney Remedy is doing. Among the cured here is Mr. J. V. Waggoner, a well known citizen, who, in an interview, says: "Dodd's Kidney Pills have done wonders for me. My kidneys and bladder were badly out of order. I used many medicines, but got nothing to cure me till I tried Dodd's Kidney Pills. Two boxes of them fixed me up so that I have been well ever since. "Tell the poor kidney and bladder diseased people to take Dodd's Kidney Pills and get well." No case of kidney complaint is too far gone for Dodd's Kidney Pills to cure. They are the only remedy that has ever cured Bright's Disease. Wife—Those trousers of yours look as if they were on their last legs. Husband—Well, they're not.

TEA Do you think it worth while to serve good tea at your table? Many a man hasn't felt slippers since he was a boy. Would Crack Open and Scab Causing Terrible Itching—Cured by Cuticura. "Our baby had a yellow crust on his head which I could not keep away. When I thought I had succeeded in getting his head clear, it would start again by the crown of his head, crack and scale, and cause terrible itching. I then got Cuticura Soap and Ointment, washing the scalp with the soap and then applying the Ointment. A few treatments made a complete cure. I have advised a number of mothers to use Cuticura, when I have been asked about the same ailment of their babies. Mrs. John Boyce, Pine Bush, N. Y." The harder a man labors the less time he has to whine. Sensible Housekeepers will have Defiance Starch, not alone because they get one-third more for the same money, but also because of superior quality. Representative Corn has been appointed by the Speaker of the Tennessee Legislature as a member of the committee on liquor traffic. TEA Is strength all? If money is plenty, no. Schilling's Best.

Y., President Montefiore Club, writes: "Since my advanced age I find that I have been frequently troubled with urinary ailments. The bladder seemed irritated, and my physician said that it was catarrh caused by a protracted cold which would be difficult to overcome on account of my advanced years. I took Peruna, hardly daring to believe that I would be helped, but I found to my relief that I soon began to mend. The irritation gradually subsided and the urinary difficulties passed away. I have enjoyed excellent health now for the past seven months. I enjoy my meals, sleep soundly, and am as well as I was twenty years ago. I give all praise to Peruna."—C. B. Newhof. Mr. F. B.

I was in charge of a Sun Dispatch boat through the Spanish American war. The effect of the tropical climate and the nervous strain showed plainly on my return to the states. Lassitude, depression to the verge of melancholia, and incessant kidney trouble made me practically an invalid. This undesirable condition continued despite the best of treatment. Finally a brother newspaper man, who like myself had served in the war, induced me to give a faithful trial to Peruna. I did so. In a short time the lassitude left me, my kidneys resumed a healthy condition, and a complete cure was effected. I cannot too strongly recommed Peruna to those suffering with kidney trouble.

Pe-ru-na Contains No Narcotics. One reason why Peruna has found permanent use in so many homes is that it contains no narcotic of any kind. Peruna is perfectly harmless. It can be used any length of time without acquiring a drug habit. Peruna does not produce temporary results. It is permanent in its effect. It has no bad effect upon the system, and gradually eliminates catarrh by removing the cause of catarrh. There are a multitude of homes where Peruna has been used off and on for twenty years. Such a thing could not be possible if Peruna contained any drugs of a narcotic nature. RN SEEDS SEED HOUSE BARTELDES & COMPANY.

L. P. WOOD, Recorder, 2422 Walnut street H. F. BUSSEY'S BREAD 1 DISASTER PREDICTED KUROPATKIN IN A RING OF FIRE London Military Experts Can See No Hope of Succor for the conta. Veena London, March 10.—In the opinion of English military critics, General Kuro- patkin’s forces are doomed to com- plete disaster. Careful study of all the possible avenues of escape and the disposition of the victorious Japanese armies, leads to the conclusion that the best Kuropatkin can hope is to save a mere remnant of his army after devoting “whole divisions to slaughter. Much importance is attached to Gen- eral Kawamura’s mysterious unlocated ‘army, which is momentarily expected ‘to complete the closing of the net around the ijefeated host by appearing somewhere in the extreme east, in the neighborhood of Yingfan, thus block- ing the sole remaining route from Yingfan to Tie pass tnrough Vankia- qou pass. The Telegraph, in an editorial arti- cle, well reflecting the general opinion here, says: “The greatest battle in the world’s history promises to end in the world’s greatest military disaster. Even if Ku- ropatkin succeeds in snatching half his host from the terrible ring of fire, how can Russia hope to send out an- other army to replenish his ranks? The sword is being wrested from Russia's fumbling hands. Kuropatkin's disas- trous defeat ought to mean the end of the war unless the Czar’s blindness is incurable and he waits for further eledge-hammer blows to fall, inevitable as those of fate.” The correspondent at Tokio of the ‘Telegraph says on official authority that fully 200,000 Russians are envel- oped and he hears that Russia’s cen- tral army is almost annihilated. APPEAL TO SUPREME COURT. What Would Result Should Election for Governor Be Declared Void? Denver, March 10.—At yesterday's session of the joint assembly Senator Alexander asked consent to withdraw his former report and substitute there- for a new report. His former report declared that, as fraud was committed in behalf of contestor and contestee, it was impossible to determine who was elected, and that, it was recommended, Lieutenant Governor Jesse McDonald be declared governor. ‘The substituted report declared that no election for governor took place on the 8th day of November; that the action of the body declaring Alva Ad- ams elected governor be rescinded, and that the place be declared vacant. In presenting his substitute report Senator Alexander, seconded by Re- publican members of all factions, de- clared that it was the purpose, before asking action thereon, to submit the report to the supreme court, asking if there was any legal objection to the adoption of such a report. ‘Upon the substitution of the report a motion was carried to appoint a com: mittee to present to the supreme court the questions involved in the new re- port and also to get a ruling as to its effect, to-wit: Could the Legislature declare the office vacant? If so em: powered, who would be governor, Lieu: tenant Governor McDonald or James H. Peabody? The question will be submitted to the supreme court to-day. Sherman Bell’s Method. Washington, March 10.—Sherman M. Bell, adjutant general of Colorado, was the principal speaker at the smoker of the Phillips Andover Academy alumnae at the University Club last night. Col. J. C. McDonald, military secretary of Colorado, told of a visit to the White House with General Bell during the day. Sir Chenk Tung Liang Cheng, the Chinese minister and president of the association, presided. General Bell said: “There are two things this country has got to do: it has got to put an end to strikes and get rid of politicians. 1 have more respect for a train robber than a political grafter, and the sooner all of them are out of the day, the bet- ter it will be. “New York ought to use some of the Colorado methods in this subway strike. Wipe them out; put them out of business; bust them up--that is the way I did with them, and this is the only way to bring peace. They could not arbitrate with me.” Death Was by. Polacnina. Honolulu; March 10.—The coroners’ jury last night returned a verdict that Mrs. Jane L. Stanford died an unnat ural death. The verdict says that death was due to strychnine poisoning, the poison having been introduced into a bottle of bicarbonate of soda with fel onious intent, by some person or per- sons to the jury unknown. | Bertha Berner and May Hunt, secre- /tary and maid of Mrs. Stanford, are de- tained to await the arrival of detec- ‘tives from San Francisco, High Sheriff Henry continues to hold out positively against the theory of suicide. Japanese Cut the Railroad. Fusan, Korea, March 10.—A dis- patch from the Japanese left army dated March 8th; says:.The left armies have cut and destroyed the railroad be- tween Mukden and Tie pass. Details are not obtainable at present. The Rus- sians are in retreat over the northern roads. ‘The left column of these armies is at Ltkampu, seven miles north of the Hun river and five miles west of the railroad, and has had a fierce fight with a Russian force thrice its num- ber. ‘The Russian casualties number 10,000. ‘The Russian center is retreat: ing in great confusion. Surrender Thought Probable. New Chwang, March 10.—It is re- ported here that Tie pass has been in. vested by the Japanese and that Gen: eral Kuropatkin, having no alterna: tive,-will probably. be forced to surren: der within a week. The Russians have not been rein. forced from the direction of Harbin since March 1st.

There may be such questions, but are they ever the most fundamental to so- ciety and are the most fundamental ever really settled by the sword? Clearly, the great trouble with war fs that even when it does settle some questions, such as political supremacy or political autonomy or territorial possession or control of trade rouies it almost invariably raises up other questions quite as harassing, perhaps as the ones originally the cause of war.—Springfield (Mass.)

WHAT FASHION DECREES FOR WOMEN WHA White will probably be the most popular color in summer shirtwaists. Some colored waists are shown, of course, but the finest handwork and the best designs are seen developed in white. Plain and embroidered linen, the mercerized materials and poplins are the materials most favored so far. Pre-eminent among the white waists will be the lingerie ones. They are shown in bewildering variety, and for the woman who is to have but two or three the matter of choice is no easy one. Sheer handkerchief linen is usually chosen for these beautiful bits of daintiness, and handwork is lavished upon them. The woman who has the time and patience to do her own hand work will find she has been repaid, especially if her means be moderate, for the prices charged in the shops are appalling. Night Gown for Ladies and Misses Dainty lingerie is desired by every Dainty fingerie 1 woman of refined taste. Soft, durable material should be the first consideration, and the trimming selected dainty and fine, but not too elaborate. In the accompanying pattern the quaint Dutch yoke is smoothly fitted on the shoulders, the joining to the skirt portion being woman of reined taste. Soft, durable material should be the first consideration, and the trimming selected dainty and fine, but not too elaborate. In the accompanying pattern the quaint Dutch yoke is smoothly fitted on the shoulders, the joining to the skirt portion being concealed beneath the soft ruffle, which is trimmed with a narrow lace edging. The chemise gown, slipped over the head, has a sleeve banded on flowing freely. Colors for Spring. In the new spring tailormade gowns helios and lavenders and plum shades are well to the fore, and there is a marked tendency toward simplicity and fitted effects. The coats of these early suits run the gamut of length from the bolero that ends well above the high girdle to the redingote that reaches well-nigh to the skirt hem. But all the coats, be they brief or lengthy, define the lines of the figure clearly. Many of the wooltex suits have trimly fitted coats shaped with the French dart seam, and finished with basquines which follow the Louis XV lines, tapering to nothing in front, or are of even length all around. The vest or waistcoat is a feature of these coats. The skirts of these wooltex suits show slightly less fullness than marks their immediate predecessors. Waist of Yellow Silk. Blouse of pale yellow silk, forming a sort of draped bolero, trimmed with a fancy applique composed of tucked bands and motifs of the silk. The neck and fronts are finished with an edge of black velvet, the latter ornamented with tiny buttons and buttonholes and opening over a frill of white lace. 1 The chemisette or guimpe is of gulpure. The girdle is of black velvet, over which the trimming from the bottom of the blouse extends. The sleeves, forming double puffs, are trimmed to correspond and finished at the elbows with lace ruffles. Scents for Milady's Locks. Just a hint of violet or white rose perfume adds to the attractions of the dainty girl. Her shining hair, too, gains by suggestion of sweetness. There is a new powder, straight from Paris, made for scenting the hair. It is nothing more nor less than a finely powdered sachet, and comes in tints to match any shade of hair. It is dusted into the pompadour and over the bun by means of a powder puff, and imparts to the tresses the faintest and most fascinating odor imaginable. For the Spring. Every day nearing spring sees more of the sort of dresses women term "little," irrespective of size or style—those lightweight woolen gowns of volle, etamines, eollennes and the like. For these stuffs have proved themselves so satisfactory that they're strong again for spring, and they have gotten themselves up in new little ways that are charming. Odd checks, small dots, checks and dots together and small invisible plaids have come—the very prettiest sort of things for the walking suits and shirtwaist suits they are being made up in. Most of them have skirts of the new length—just touching all around. And that length is the hardest of all to wear, for it seems too short to hold up, is actually harder to hold up than a trained skirt, yet aggravatingly "cuts" around the edge unless you do continually lift it. Dame Fashion has promised us a change in skirts, but nothing radical seems to be forth- FOR AFTERNOON WEAR. coming, just more and more astonishing ways of getting fullness in about the feet. Short coats are more favored than long in these light materials for the suits to wear with blouses. But everything is made of them; they're even threatening to share honors with silk, which has had everything its own way for the shirtwaist suits that everybody wears. Blue and brown—especially blue—are "staple" and will be worn a great deal, but a dozen shades of violet are promised for the earliest spring days. Violet has been hinted at, pretty strongly, all winter. Boudoir Confidences It is said that a sound, ripe apple placed in a tin cake box will keep the leaves from drying or crumbling. Sweeping with the carpet sweeper will be more effectual if the sweeper is pushed in the same direction as the warp of a rug—not against it. A cement made by adding a teaspoonful of glycerin to a gill of glue is a great convenience in the kitchen and is especially good for fastening leather, paper or wood to metal. Milk will immediately and effectually extinguish the flames from gasoline or any form of petroleum, since it forms an emulsion with the oil whereas water only spreads it. Fried oysters are considered unwholesome, because, as usually prepared, they become soaked with fat. To avoid this, immerse them completely in hot fat, so that they are instantly seared over and the absorption of fat prevented. A frying basket facilitates the process. New Triple Skirts. That the separate waist has indeed been promoted must be admitted when one sees the elaborate white silk and lace affairs worn by social leaders at the musicales, where the star prima donnas "assist." These shirt waists appeared on the removal of coats—mostly of the three-quarter length and matching the skirts—the hats either matching the costume or en suite with the furs worn. But there are delightful exceptions. One young matron in a skirt and coat of purple cloth wore ermine and a turban of pale blue taffeta with white plume flecked with black. Another notable costume was of white serge, with a plumed black velvet turban and lynx furs. The coat was trimmed with black velvet and gold strappings. Uses for Huckaback. Huckaback is used for a number of articles dear to the heart of the fancy worker, book covers, cushions—sofa and pin variety being included in the list. Mercerized thread is used for the decoration which is in undulating rows formed by darning. The work is very easy. With the Housewife Fancy a redingote of yellow Venetian lace. Cuffs flare upward, with upstanding frills of lace. Colored embroideries will be much used on white dresses. Harmony from hat to shoe is the main point to be almed at. Princess gowns are to be the smartest of spring and summer frocks. Soft, fluffy and dainty are the blouses made entirely of valenciennes. The waistcoat or vest is almost universal on this season's tailor mades. The surplice waist runs riot. Almost every new frock is finished off that way. FOR AFTERN 1. House dress, of palest green silk crepe, embroidered in wreaths of forget-me-nots, tied with white ribb>n bows, over a foundation of changeable green taffeta. 2. Fashionable reding-ote of brick red lightweight broadcloth, the tucks of the skirt stitched The long redingote is so close fitting and so elaborately trimmed that it appears less like a coat than a gown. White mull and lace gowns are well trimmed with lace and delicate inset embroidery of the handkerchief order. Washable Silk Underwear It is very smart these days to have all one's underwear, even to one's corset, washable, and the best of fancy silk petticoats are now made of washable silk. The new washable silks are triumphs in the art of silk making and the wash silk shirt waists and wash silk dress skirts would surprise the old fashioned dressmaker of a few years ago, who labored under the impression that silk would spot if wet. Two-thirds of the summer silks are washable. They are promising many novelties in the wash silk line and all women should do well to watch out for them, for they will be handsome and well adapted to nice wear as well as to common wear. Accessories for Gowns. Waistcoats, collars and cuffs are all accessories of the tailor-made costumes that give the charmingly feminine touch that is so attractive with the rather severe styles. The coats are made so that the waistcoats may or may not be added and the sleeves and collar are also so finished that they are complete without the extra collar and cuffs of leather, linen or pique, as the case may be. On the white serge coat collars and cuffs of black velvet and then a narrow collar and cuffs of plain pique, fastened to the coat with small fancy buttons, are extremely smart and give a distinctly individual touch that is most desirable. The pique or duck collars and cuffs launder well and can easily be put on. New Theater Waist. Blouse of soft silk or crepe de ilk or crepe de chine, forming a sort of fichu shirred at the shoulder, draped, bordered with a lace ruffle and finished at the bottom with a double frill which is trimmed with narrow black velvet. 1 The chemisette is tucked crosswise and trimmed with lace, which also forms the collar. The girdle is of velvet. The full sleeves are finished at the elbows with velvet-edged frills of the material and with lace ruffles. Popular Lingerie Blouses. The tremendous vogue for lingerie blouses is a wiser mode than it seems at first thought. They are always fresh and dainty, not at all perishable and as warm as any of the lighter weight silks when worn over one of the well-cut linings of heavy India silk. Then again they may be worn all through the year, and in character of fabric answer a certain hint of informality in the nature of the blouse proper. At any rate modish women are buying them by the wholesale. Trimming Materials. Both cloth and velvet gowns show a varied assortment of trimmings, and none of the importations are plain, but display two or three different trimming materials. Silver and gold braid and embroidery done in the two metal shades adorn the heavier gowns, while galloons of all widths and varieties are applied to the mixed cloth fabrics. More Material Called For: The amount of goods necessary for a dress to-day is almost twice the number of yards used in the gowns of two years ago, the full sleeves taking a vast amount of material, and the shirred and plaited skirts demanding an amount of colth astonishing to the man who has to pay for it by the yard.

Woman's Many and Varied Receptacles for Valuable Documents. A Germantown householder who had given various valuable papers to his wife to take care of recently hunted all over the house for the insurance policy on his furniture and could not find it. When the wife came home from a tea he told her his trouble with considerable perturbation, lest the domucent should have been lost. "Is that all?" said the wife, looking with disgust at her very much disturbed desk, where the husband had been rummaging. "Why didn't you ask me?" and going to a picture on the wall she pulled the policy from behind it. "And where," inquired the husband, after he had recovered from his surprise, "do those shares in the Pullaback Valley Railroad and Timber Development company happen to be?" "They're safe enough," was the answer. "They're in the closet under the stairs behind the grape juice." "And the deed to the house?" "That's upstairs in the spare room packed away under your summer suit." By diligent cross-examination the husband found the locations, scattered from cellar to roof, of numerous other documents of value. "And now," said he, "what's the answer?" "Why," said the wife, who was used to his slang. "I don't mean that any robber shall ever come in and clean us out in a one hour search. He'd never think of the places I've chosen, and if he did he would be heard going up and down stairs and knocking over bottles."—Philadelphia Record. 8 Curious Facts About Babists. At a recent meeting of the Imperial Geographical society at Weadikawkas, Russia, the explorer Arakelyani made some interesting statements about the religious sect of the Babists. This Mohammedan organization was founded in 1844 by the Persian Mirsa Ali Mohamed, and now numbers about 5,000,000 members. According to the "Bejan"—the Koran of this sect—all men are brethren, and should speak and write the same language. The year is divided into nineteen months and nineteen days, of which the latter five are devoted to repentance. Of these 5,000,000 members, over 3,000,000 live in Persia, where they have been allowed to build their own churches, while the remainder is spread over Egypt, Arabia, Turkestan and even China. The present head of the sect is Abbas-Effendi, who resides in Persia. The founder of the organization, Mirsa Ali Mohamed, was killed in Persia some three years ago. Her Logical Reasoning. In his "Comic School Tales" H. J. Barker gives some amusing answers by children technically known in England as "howlers." Here are some of them: A teacher in a school at Stepney, East London, was giving her class an examination on the Scriptural work of the previous three months. Among other questions the lady asked: "With what weapon did Samson slay the thousand Phillistines?" And one girl, jumbling her old and new testament knowledge, stood up and replied: "With the ax of the apostles." A woman teacher had been explaining the story of the casting adrift of the infant Moses. "Now, why was it, do you think, that the good mother daubed the little ark boat so carefully with slime and pitch?" "Oh, ma'am," said one little 5-year-old girl, "to make the baby stick inside." Costly Investigation. Mayor John Weaver of Philadelphia is the proud father of a boy named Roy, who is of an investigating turn of mind. On his last birthday Roy was presented by his father with a handsome watch. The very next day Mr. Weaver came suddenly upon his young hopeful in the act of dissecting the timepiece. In his hand he held the empty case, and all around him, in picturesque confusion, lay the delicate works. "I was only trying to find out if you had been cheated," remarked Roy. "I read the other day that a watch had 175 different parts, and I just wanted to be sure they were all here."—New York Times. Reasoning of Youthful Bostonian Reaching of Touchful Bostonian. President Finley of the City college was recently in Boston, and since that experience, is fond of relating this conversation he overheard in a street car of that city: "Mamma," said a little boy, sitting in front of President Finley. "Herbert Spencer must have been a fine writer." "Why, my child?" inquired his mother. "Why, they wouldn't have named the Spencerian pen after him if he hadn't been," was the infantile explanation—New York Times. A Spectator.
