William Pickens in April Nunber of the Voice of the Negro of Atlana, Ga., Writes Interestingly on the Subject. VOL. XI. The American Negro seems on the higher verge of an Educational Renaissance; the "dark ages" of materialism have had their decade. Many are looking forward to further their education in better institutions than the south can at present afford to them. A word to these ambitious young is appropriate. It is important that the young Negro from the South, who is about to enter Yale or Harvard, should not be handipapped by wrong expectations and presuppositions. Let him remember that he is simply going from one part to another part of the same society, whose respective practices, though somewhat difficult, have much the same theories at bottom. Yes, his whole case is to be proven; not a single presumption will lie in his favor, neither as to scholarship nor character. It is as if the defendant has entered court with every presumption on the side of the accuser. In the Southern college from which he came his very membership in the "college family" demanded certain favorable judgment from those about him. But in this new environment both professors and students, in spite of reason and in spite of themselves, eye him with a distant curiosity. What doeth this man here? He is not of us; he has entered high in his class, to be sure, but has not every "wise" white man and every "levelheaded" Negro in the land declared that no black man should darken the threshold of higher learning until tho whole race has some wealth and a high type of character? It does not occur to them that it is equally reasonable to say: No boy should touch water until the majority can swim, and none should see ice till all can skate. The Negro must stand alone and prove his case; his highest need is a levelhead and a good fund of common sense. Last year there were about thirty Negro students at Harvard, and about half as many at Yale. The great majority were from the South and most of them self supporting. Their average scholarship would be a good way above the average for the white students, for the Negroes represent the brighter and more energetic section of their race. Those who have come from the South and who has gone as high as possible in Southern institu- State Historical and Natural History Society, Denver.

The Southerner is more scholarly, for the absence of certain industrial opportunities in the North is peculiarly detrimental to the ambition of her average Negro citizen. As a rule the Southerner is more levelheaded; for in the environment from which he came, opposition was pronounced and unambiguous, and he is not easily deceived by a superficial show of courtesies; while the very inconsistency between the social and industrial life of the Northern brother has kept him in a state of vacillation—he has never come into equilibrium with his environment, never found "just where he's at." Consequently he has less pertinacity, less capacity for resistance in the same straight line. Both will be subject to many petty slights and snubs. The Northerner will be unbalanced, overcome—will lose his head and lose the battle. But the Southerner has a coat of mail which sheds all petty thrusts as the eagle's wing sheds rain drops—absolutely ignoring them. Ere long, he finds that he has not an ounce more of opposition in the white students from the South than from those of the North. But he will find the Southern white more frank, and the Northern white more secretive; the Southernner more subject to feeling, the Northerner more subject to law. The Southern whites will divide themselves into three well defined classes; a few who are "self-opinioned" enough to be the colored student's best friends; some who are small enough to fit into the pettiest schemes for his discomforture; and others who are magnanimous enough to neither help nor hinder, love nor hate. But the Northern whites, though they may be at heart subject to just such a classification, have nevertheless such a sense of formal justice and are so habituated to external obedience to law, as to appear uniform. But when the final test comes and he is forced to his position, the Northerner shows his colors with all the enthusiasm of long repressed feeling. The "Southernized" Yankee has become famous. I repeat that in such surroundings the black man's most valuable possession is a levelhead. If he --- has enemies he will find that the very first thing they desire is to make him mad. "Whom the gods would destroy they first make mad," and I know not whether it is true that men have been cunning enough to copy this stratagem of the gods, or that they have been audacious enough to impute to the gods of wickedness which men always possessed. The contestant has a vantage when his opponent gets mad. I have seen a Negro boy enter a Northern university under the very acme of all the disadvantages of which I have hinted, and by a dignified contempt for littleness, never sacrificing one title of respect by teading, indomitable in his presistence, insistence and resistance wherever needed, reach his goal. If he entered a classroom and the seat on his right and the one on his left were vacated, he coolly put his hat into one and piled his book into the other; and as a result of abundant room and the lack of encumberment he would be the only man to complete the examination or the written recitation within the required time. Within three months everyseat in his neighborhood was filled, not for the love of his company, but for the convenience of a glance at the paper on which he wrote. He had an object when he matriculated; that object was not social preferment. As to whether a man is loved, depends much upon the lover; as to whether he is respected, depends absolutely upon himself. One can force no man to love him; he can compel every man to respect him. A man can have the highest respect for whom he has the intensest hate. I have heard white boys in a Northern college begging a black boy to be their tutor; I have known them to acknowledge, among themselves, the excellence of his scholarship and the irreproachableness of his character; and then use all their influence against his advancement to certain honors. Yea, I have heard them praise him with an oath. That is an unnatural state of things; it is the war of two opposite elements—and the right will win. Looked at from the other end, some of the "disadvantages" of the Negro university student are opportunities. Disadvantages overcome is doubly advantageous. It is not wholly against him that he is presumed to be a fool when he is first met. It is as he were in a contest and his antagonist had greatly underestimated his strength. Hence the complete route of his enemy and the universal sensation, if he is extraordinarily strong. Because of the great advantage of a training in Southern life for any Negro who expects to accomplish anything in the United States of America, I have often DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, APRIL 22, 1905. tried to persuade Northern Negroes to send their children to the South for at least a part of their education. But most Northern blacks have a natural horror for "the land of cotton and strange tradition." As the chief activities of the Negro race must be in the South, as the Herculean labors of every black giant must for an indefinite time lie south of the "Mason and Dixon's line," it is exceedingly unfortunate for a brilliant young Negro to reach the age of twenty-five without a first-hand knowledge of the "Southern atmosphers." If my home and work were to be forever in Labrador I would not thank my parents for deliberately acclimatizing me in Porto Rico, and vice versa. Let me say finally that, in spite of the popular opinion to the contrary, despite the valuable conclusions of Northern white men who can come south and get from Pullman car windows a more thorough and dogmatic knowledge of Southern conditions in twenty days than I have been able to get by living the life for twenty-four years—one of the very best things of the present day is the contact between Southern white men and black men in Northern universities. Last summer one of the leading professors in one of the leading universities of this country told me that he had reached the conclusion that it is best for Negroes not to enter Northern institutions; and when I asked for the basis of so sweeping a conclusion, he replied that he had traveled for "three whole weeks with the Ogden Party." Perhaps if we all had been kept North until we were forty years old and then suddenly brought to the South, we, should have opinions different than what we hold—especially if we were immediately transported back to the North after "three whole weeks" of parlor-car junketing. A Northern university is the only place wherein the cultured white man of the South comes face to face with the cultured black man of the South. Many preconceived notions on doth sides are changed, perforce, of course, but happily. Misunderstanding, the one evil of the whole situation, is often done away with. Not seldom friendships are formed to last through the years. To day the only white members of Yale class of 1904 with whom I correspond, the only ones who expressed a desire "to keep in touch" with me, are several Southern lads. Animals which would meet as deadly enemies in their maturity will, if reared in the same kennel from babyhood innocently sport together. Lebanon, Ind., April 16.—Judge Stepnen J. Neal, author of the fourteeth amendment of the constitution of the United States, is critically ill at his home in the city. Judge Neal is past 80 years old. President B. F. Allen has secured an appropriation of $77,400 for Lincoln Institute, Jefferson City, Mo. Herbert R. Wright, a Negro of Des Moines, Ia., has been appointed United States consul at Puerto Plata, Dominica. Huntsville, Ala.,—Thomas W. Smith was re-elected mayor of of Huntsville by a majority of 139 over Alderman E. R. Mathews. For the first time in forty years the Fourth ward elected a white man as alderman, this being the result of a wholesale disfranchisement of Negro voters by the state constitution. Covington, Ga.. April 16.—Near Broughton, a station on the Central railroad, 15 miles east of Covington, Kelsey Cranford, white, 22 years old, and his younger brother, Walter, were waylaid by four unknown Negroes. Twelve shots were fired, the elder Cranford being killed outright. Walter Cranford received the contents of one load of buckshot in his arm. He outran the assassins and gave the alarm. Much excitement prevails. Huntingdon, Tenn., April 10. News of an attempted assault comes from Hollow Rock, ten miles South of this place, the victim and the accused being members of the prominent Carroll county families. The 14 year old son of Rev. E. R. Condor pastor of the M. E. church, was arrested on the charge of having assaulted Ethel Thomson. The alleged offense is said to have been committed Sunday afternoon. The affair has created some excitement in the little town. New London, Mo., April 14.— In the course of a struggle with Fred Buckley, a Negro' Robert Herring, was shot to death on his farm, $4\frac{1}{2} $ miles northwest of this city. Buckley is said to have accused Herring of stealing meat, and Herring replied with a load of buckshot, which struck the Negro in the face and shoulder. Buckley closed in with Herring, and during the struggle the shotgun was discharged a second time. Herring was killed instantly. Buckley is in jail here, probable fa tally wounded. Lexington, Ky.—J. Alexander Chiles, a Negro lawyer of this city, today filed suit in the circuit court for $10,000 damages against the Chesapeake and Ohio railway company, for compelling him to ride in the colored, or "Jim Crow" com- NO. 30. partment of one of their trains. He claims to have purchased a first-class ticket from Washington, D.C., to Lexington, and alleges that after the train crossed the Kentucky line at Ashland, Ky., he was forced to leave the car he was in and go to the car set aside for colored passengers. He sets up the claim that he was an interstate passenger, and as such was entitled to ride in coaches for such passengers, until he reached his destination. Butler, Tenn. April 10—Lochie Bunton, a white girl 14 years of age was criminally assaulted by three white men well known in this section last Friday in the woods three miles from this town. The men are said to have been drinking. Their victim is unconscious. The men are said to have overtaken the girl on the road while driving through the mountains and compelled her to get in the hack and ride with them. After taking the girl in they are said to have left the road and committed the crime. A posse headed by a well known and desperate mountain character, Nat Gordon have been on the trail of the men since Sunday morning. One Lambert Tree, who has been studying racial conditions in the West Indies, and likewise in the Spanish island possession, is convinced that the Negro will sooner or later absolutely control every inch of territory in these islands. Even now he has almost absolute control of the islands, though the various islands have governors sent out from the home government. Slowly, but surely the Negro is edging the white man off all along the line and on the whole the Negro is more exacting with the white man in the land he controls than the white man is with him. For an instance, in both Hayti and Liberia, Negro republics, Caucasians are not allowed to own land in the republic, which exaction can not be found in any country controlled by the white man, as to the Negro. There is some talk of lynching at Texarkana because of the fact that Caleb Johnson, a Negro postal clerk on the K. C. S. Ry., stabbed J. D. Huey, a young Texarkana white man, in the breast with a pocket knife, the blade entering the breast near the heart will probably prove fatal. The stabbing was done Wednesday and was due to improper remarks made by Huey to a colored woman. Johnson interfered and Huey struck him over the head with a club, Johnson in turn drew a knife and stabbed Huey Johnson was arrested and is now in the county jail. There has been some talk of an attempt at lynching, but it is not likely such an effort will be made. If justice be done Johnson will be freed. He did what any white or colored man of principal would have done under similar circumstances.

These centers become bloodless for want of proper nutrition. This is especially true in the spring season. Every spring a host of invalids are produced as the direct result of weak nerves.

Few, if any, menageries in the world can show a more remarkably record of lion rearing than that of the Dublin "zoo." From the old lion house, which was recently replaced by a magnificent building, to which Lord Roberts has given his name, lions bred within its walls have been consigned to almost every quarter of the globe. Upward of 200 cubs saw the light in the old lion house, and the sum of nearly $25,000 resulted from their sale to other menageries, both at home and abroad. One lioness, whose career in the gardens extended over a period of sixteen years, gave birth in her time to no fewer than fifty-five cubs, which realized the sum of $7,000. EVERY ONE ASKS HIM HOW HE GOT RID OF HIS OBSTINATE MUSCULAR RHEUMATISM. Mr. Jones Tells of the Way by Which He Treated Himself Successfully When Doctors Failed. Six physicians, all of them good, one of them a specialist, had done their best for Mr. Jones at different times during three years, and still he suffered fearfully from the tortures of rheumatism. The rheumatism that had been dormant in his system was suddenly brought to an acute stage by exposure while he was drawing ice in February, 1901. From that time on for a period of more than three years he was a constant sufferer. He tried many kinds of treatment, but the rheumatism wouldn't budge. When regular doctors failed, and one remedy after another proved useless, many said: "I should think he would give it up and save his money." Of his condition at this time, Mr. Jones says: "My rheumatism started in my right thigh, but in time it appeared in every muscle of my body. I lost the use of my left arm entirely and nearly lost the use of my right one. My feet were badly affected, especially the bottoms of the heels. When my right side was affected there was swelling, but the left side didn't swell when the disease settled there. The internal organs didn't seem to be involved at all. The trouble was all in the muscles and the nerves." Among the few who still encouraged Mr. Jones to think that a cure might yet be found was a friend who had reason for great confidence in Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, and acting on her advice he bought a box of them in September, 1904. The story of what followed is brief, but nothing could be more satisfactory. "When I was on the third box," says Mr. Jones, "I could realize a change for the better. I felt sure then that Dr. Williams' Pink Pills were the right medicine for my case. I kept on with them for several weeks longer and now I am entirely well, and everybody is asking what I took." Mr. William Jones lives at Oxford, Mich. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills effect wonderful cures in rheumatism, because they work directly on the blood which is the seat of the disease. They are sold by every druggist. Every married man has two wives one that the really has and the one he just thinks he has. PISO'S CURE FOR CURES WHERE ALL ARE FAILED Best Cough syrup. As soon Good.

Washington, April 20.—Victor Morawetz of the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe railroad told the Senate committee on interstate commerce to-day that the executive committees and boards of directors never know anything about the details of traffic management. They give directions to the president of the road, and the president directs the other officers. In reply to a question by Senator Dolliver, Mr. Morawetz explained the charges regarding the granting of rebates by the Santa Fe to the Colorado Fuel and Iron Company. He said that the alleged rebate grew out of confusion of the cost of transportation and the cost of coal. The Santa Fe filed with the Interstate Commerce Commission a rate of $4.05 from the mine to the point of intersection with a road which was controlled by Phelps, Dodge & Co., the coal consignee. As a matter of fact, he said, the rate was $2.90 per ton and the difference, $1.15 per ton, was paid to the Colorado Fuel and Iron Company for the coal. The road collected the price of the coal and the cost of transportation at the point of delivery. It was alleged that the payment of $1.15 to the Colorado company was a rebate when, as a matter of fact, he said, no rebate was paid. No interest, he stated, suffered by the act of the company and nobody connected with the Santa Fe system had any interest in the Colorado Fuel and Iron Company. No other shipper could be affected, because Phelps, Dodge & Co. had to have the coal which was supplied by the Colorado company. The whole case arose over a confusion of the cost of coal with the cost of transportation. LOW-PRICED POTATOES. No Profit on Large Shipments From Greglev. Denver, April 20.—A Republican special from Greeley says: Potatoes have moved more freely the last ten days than at any time during the last six months. The market price is 15 cents per hundred for Pearls and 20 cents per hundred for Rurals. Forty carloads is the daily output from the Greeley district. They go as far west as Seattle, to Texas on the south and east to Kansas, Missouri and Oklahoma. At least 2,000 carloads remain in the district. Farmers are slicing the potatoes and feeding to cattle and sheep. A. W. Bronnell, who is fattening 2,000 sheep for market, claims they are superior to beet pulp for fattening food. The starch factory uses 500 sacks of potatoes a day. The seed which will be planted for renewal comes from the Divide district, but two-thirds of the seed planted will be of last year's crop from this section. The market price of 15 cents a sack is barely paying the farmer for the last sorting, sacking and hauling. This year he must count the cost of seed and of labor in production a total lost. It is said that on every carload shipped out the producer loses $60 this year. Farmers could dump their stored potatoes on their fields for fertilizing purposes were it not that the weather is now too warm for potatoes to freeze, which they must do before they rot sufficiently to make a good fertilizer. The acreage planted to potatoes the coming season will be cut down twenty-five per cent, from what it has been in the last twenty-five years. The area will be planted to sugar beets. Will Close Land Offices. Washington, April 20.—Commissioner Richards of the general land office will be obliged, under the law, to discontinue several land offices in Colorado at the commencement of the coming fiscal year, on account of lack of business transacted by them. It is provided by the statute that whenever the quantity of public land remaining in any land district is reduced to less than 100,000 acres, or whenever the cost of collecting revenue from sales of public lands in a district is one-third of the whole amount of revenue, it may be lawful to discontinue such land district and annex it to an acjoining district. Five land districts in Colorado come within these restrictions. They are: Hugo, where the receipts for the last nine months were $4,876, and the expenses $3,249. Lamar, receipts $3,025, expenses $1,812. Leadville, receipts $7,574, expenses $2,809. Akron, receipts $4,000, expenses $2.150. Del Norte, receipts $6,582, expenses $2.403. Commissioner Richards has written letters to the registers and receivers of these offices calling for a report as to what portion of their districts the existing business comes from and whether they see any prospects for an increase. He also asks that these officials recommend, in the event the district should be attached to some other district, with what district the combination should be made. Leadville Smelter Strike. Leadville, Colo., April 19.—Armed deputies in charge of Sheriff O'Mahoney last night succeeded in maintaining quiet at the Arkansas Valley plant of the American Smelting and Refining Company here, where forty weighers and wheelers went on a strik yesterday for shorter hours and succeeded in keeping nearly 800 employees from working. The fires of six of the eight furnaces have been drawn and the other two are banked. The mines in the district have been ordered to cease shipping to the smelter until further notice. No disorder is looked for and a settlement is expected within a few days. The wheelers struck when the smelter management put into effect the recent eight-hour law, which does not include them. They demanded the same hours as the other workmen, which was refused by the management. Dora M. Christopher has been appointed postmaster at Cope, Washington county, vice E. E. Brown, resigned.

He was one of the trustees of the Boulder Valley road during its construction and was prominent in many ways. The county commissioners of Phillips county have sold the tax deeds of 114 quarter sections of land to R. N. White for $5,000, the same to be taken within ninety days.

THE SEC The Door Star To refute the many false and malicious attacks, bogus formulas and other untruthful statements published concerning Doctor Pierce's World-famed Family Medicines the Doctor has decided to publish all the ingredients entering into his "Favorite Prescription" for women and his equally popular tonic alternative known as Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery. Hereafter every bottle of these medicines leaving the great Laboratories, also N.Y., will bear upon it a full list of the ingredients entering into the compound. Both are made fiery from native roots, bars and herbs. The ingredients of the "Golden Medical Discovery" being Golden Seal root, Queen's root, Black-cherrybark, Mandrake root, Bloodroot. Why is it so many have been strengthened and benefited by the tonic effect of Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery? It is because at this time of the year people feel run-down, nerveless, sleepless and in their body during the laborer. Their blood stores up a lot of waste product which poisons the system. That is why in the spring and early summer a tonic is almost a necessity. Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery being made of medicinal plants, is next to nature and the best tonic you can use. For the same reason, it is good for the system at this time of the year, so is it true that a tonic made up entirely of medicinal plants, without the use of alcohol, is the proper medicine to take at this time. It fills the blood with rich red blood corpuscles. It gives you a feeling of strength, and it puts sunshine into your body. That is why Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery has been such a favorite for the past forty years. He is not afraid to open his laboratory to the public, and he invites every one to visit his Invalids' Hotel and Surgical Institute, at Balfalo, NY, to see how systematically the sick person is looking over his huge laboratory and seeing the scientific methods of preparing this wonderful tonic.

Trent, of Gorcoville, Texas. "I wrote to you and you advised me to use Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical when very so, I bought six bottles, and when more than six bottles, and weak could hardly walk about the house. By the time I had used one bottle my stomach and bowels commenced to heal. There were strips of the lining of my bowels as large as a man's two fingers passed and I had a great deal of misery with them. My bowels, also the rectum especially, could eat anything without having much distress afterward, but by the time I had taken eight bottles of the 'Golden Medical Discovery' I was sound and well, and could eat anything I pleased without suffering in the least.

There isa lesson in this for some Colorado Republicans who have been working with the Democrats. Roosevelt could not possibly have obtained his present international eminence, or his present leadership in the Repub- lican party, by supporting Demo- cratic measuse in order to spite some man or group of men within his own party. Roosevelt isa party man. He believes in organization and in practical politics. By practical politics he does not mean dishonest or dishonorable politics but sane and sensible politics, clean politics recognizing public sentiment and every interest that goes to make up the party. He has won his present distinction by being a strong man. Voters may choose their candidates for their votes, but a party leader large or small must stand by his party, if he hopes to remain in it asa leader, however insignificant. Roosevelt believes in the Re publican party. He is an organi- zation man. He believes that any differances within the party should be settled within the party. He has not reached his present emi- nence by working with the Demo. crats. He has never turned a party victory over to the enemy as have some of those who are con- stantly referring to him with a view of covering up their own dis- loyalty by giving the impression that they are “Roosevelt’’ Republi- cans.

Power, in Suc- cess Magazine. “Say, mister,” said, “can I put some money in this bank?” “Certainly you can,” the president answered; “how much do you want to deposit?” “A quarter!” exclaimed the young- ster, pulling a handful of pennies and nickels out of his pocket. The bank- er took him over to the receiving tell- er and introduced him with all the deference that he would have shown to a millionaire. The boy left the city soon after opening the account, but he kept adding to his deposit from time to time, and as he was nat- urally bright and shrewd, everything he undertook prospered. He is back in Pittsburg now, the head of a suc- cessful manufacturing concern, and one of the bank's most valued cus- .omers. CE Bargains! Bargains!!

A year ago a proud young father out in Michigan sent $25 to open an account for his first born son, then less than a week old. “The boy'll need it some of these days,” he wrote, “and we may as well begin to save for him right off.” Six months. later a tear-dimmed letter came, ask- ing to withdraw the money to pay the little fellow’s funeral expenses. A working woman in a little town in New York sent a dollar bill in the name of her daughter, 6 years of age. “She'll be marrying by and by,” she said, “and ought to have some- thing to start life on.” That was nearly two years ago, and almost every week since a dollar bill has been added to this account. ‘There'll be a snug little marriage portion for the young lady some-day, if nothing happens. Not long a woman living in Illinois sent five dollars with explicit instruc- tions not to let her “old man” know about it, as “he'd be after spending every cent of it for drink.” toneck and nearly every Sunday he drives over to New Rochelle to attend services in Salem church. He recoge nized the needs of the Sunday school and advised that the pupils satively interest themselves in the schyol by inducing others to attend.

Both baboons. sprang toward the water and. leaning down, they drank until they were sat- isfied. Then, having gravely stretched themselves, they solemnly stalked away on all fours in the direction of the herd. There was little doubt, therefore, that they belonged to the herd and had been sent forward to re- connoiter, for as soon as they got back the entire herd put itself.in mo- tion toward the pond. There were mothers taking care of their little ones; there were half- grown animals, the boys and girls of the company. At first only one baboon at a time came to the water's edge and, having taken its draft, retired to the rest, but when about ten had thus ventured: separately, they began to come in small groups, leaving the oth- ers rolling and jumping on the sand. the pan. No one said she could yell, but she did without asking. And such a Comanche war whoop as she let out and such a din as she raised on that pan no Indian could have surpassed. Every man for blocks around got into his trousers and was on the street with his gun inside of two jiffies. “Investigation showed that burglars had been about, for on the side ve- randa were found a dark lantern, matches and a jimmy, tut by that time the sensible burglar was miles away, no doubt. He was caught some years later on another offense and then he described the effect of the blood-curdling yells and the beating of the pan, It was the first and only time in his life, he said, that he had been frightened, “After that we all equipped our households with dustpans and sticks for emergencies, and we still stick to the custom to-day” Irvin Stokes is suffering with a severe attack of rheumatism.

Baur's catering establishment, together with the following young men went to Colorado Springs last Monday via the automobile route; E. R. Morris, Geo. Lloyd, Ben Murray, Chas. West and A. Dukes. It was a pleasure trip and as Mr. Caswell was the head of the party it is hardly necessary to state that a royal time was the result. Rev. Dennis D. Cole, pastor of Campbell A. M. E. church and John H. Wilson, engaged in a lively encounter last Wednesday night, and as a result, the clergyman was locked up in the city jail while Wilson was taken to the police surgeon for repairs.

If you are interested, and you should be—do not fail to attend. J. N. Walker addressed the Peoples Sunday Alliance last Sunday afternoon, his subject being "A Christian's Duty." The speaker pointed out many logical ways in which one who professes Christianity might better the conditions of mankind, but when he referred to the good work that could be accomplished in Africa in raising the standard of humanity in that dark continent, he was severely criticised, we presume Mr. Walker did not confine the Christian duty to a more condensed sphere. However, both the discussion and its criticisms proved to be quite interesting. Benjamin Wade, was shot to death last Monday night by his son, Benjamin, Jr., who is now locked up in the city jail. Physicians have pronounced him a lunatic of the most dangerous type. Young Wade called at the home of his father 3345 Blake street, early Monday night and began accusing him of abusing his mother on March 15th last. (The woman in question has been dead for many years). After a short argument the son raised a revolver and fired. The first shot missed its mark and the old man fled to the street, with his son in close pursuit, when another shot was fired and the old gentleman fell dead in the dust where young Wade continued shooting his father in the head until all the catridges were discharged. He reloaded his revolver and repeated his astrocious act, making nine bullets fired into the head of his aged father. While on his way to work a few evenings ago, Alex Adams, one of the waiters at the University Club, was stopped three different times by detectives, and each time he was required to recite a history of his life besides accompanying the officers to the nearest telephone that they might phone to the club for proof of his identity. He was even asked to name the membership of the club roster and it is said that he began to name them as fast as Barney Oldfield can manipulate his big racing motor. He was a little tardy in getting to his work but when he related his story to the headwaiter, Ulysis Hayden, he was congratulated on making his escape from a nights lodging in the bull pen. Mr. Adams has since been presented with a leather medal by the boys of the club with the inscription "Alexander the Great." Local Notices.

PRESIDENT'S BIG HUNT COAL IN FRENCH PORT HAS SHOT LARGE BLACK BEAR Hunters Have Enjoyed Fine Weather —Roosevelt is Up Early and Prefers Plain Fare. Denver, April 19.—A Republican special from Glenwood Springs last night says: Elmer Chapman, a courier from the President's camp, arrived here this evening. He reported everybody well at Camp Roosevelt and having a fine time. Early Monday afternoon the dogs tracked a big black male bear. He was so large that he would not tree, but made a walking bay, killing one dog and crippling and wounding half a dozen others. By hard scrambling up the mountain side the President got near enough to shoot him. Chapman brought the hide to Glenwood and left it with a local taxidermist to be mounted. It is reported to be a fine specimen. Monday, Dr. Lambert shot a bobcat, which was also brought here for mounting. The weather in camp has been fine, with the exception of Sunday, when there was some snow and rain. Secretary Loeb will return with Chapmon to the camp to-morrow morning, and will remain over night, taking with him a number of papers for the President's signature or attention. Chapman is the first courier to bring any news whatever from the camp, and his visit here this evening was welcomed by the secretary and his force, as well as the newspaper representatives, who, up to the time of his coming, have been unable to get any information from the camp. According to Chapman, the President is taking the true sportsman's delight in the rough life of the camp. He is one of the first to be stirring in the morning and always the first to sit down to breakfast. The fare seems to suit him, although he has said several times he would be as well pleased if it were less pretentious. His idea or camp life is one kind of meat at each meal, and that fried, vegetables of the canned variety, coffee made over an open fire and the smell of smoke in everything that is cooked. Things are different at Camp Roosevelt, as the boys have dubbed the outfit on the Charles Penny ranch. But the President has been warned the chef may not be able to do such good work after the camp is moved and that the party may get enough canned stuff to please even the President. The big white horse which the President rode out of New Castle Saturday is his favorite of the three taken along for his personal use. It is not fast, but is strong, and the trail is never so stony but the President and his steed cover it if any horse can get through. Invited to Visit Mikado. Washington, D. C., April 13.—ENI Hioki, the Japanese charge d'affaires, yesterday called upon Secretary Taft and extended an informal invitation for the secretary and the party of ten senators, twenty representatives, members of their families and friends, including Miss Alice Roosevelt, to visit Tokio when they go to the Philippines in July. Their steamer will touch at Yokohama, which is one hour's ride from Tokio, will remain there two days, and will also touch at Kobe and Nagasaki, making six days in Japan. Mr. Taft stated that he did not care to impose the great party on the hospitality of the Japanese government, but was assured that it would be a pleasure rather than a burden. Mr. Taft will accordingly go to Tokio, and among those with him will be Senators Allison, Daniel, Long, Scott, Stone, Warren and Patterson, Speaker Cannon, Representatives Grosvenor and Hepburn and former Secretary of War Root. Equitable Life Agents. New York, April 19.—After a session lasting for nearly six hours yesterday, aside from short recesses, the 200 odd managing agents of the Equitable Life Assurance Society from all over the United States adopted resolutions asking the New York State Legislature to "exercise its plenary power by enacting an amendment to the society's charter," this amendment to give the policyholders admission to the directorate of the society. The resolutions also provide that a committee consisting of one manager for every state in the Union and one from Canada, together with all the managers in New York City, should be named to visit Governor Higgins and Superintendent of Insurance Hendricks, and secure their assistance in getting the Legislature to act in the matter. Closing Merger Affairs. Trenton, N. J., April 19.—The Northern Securities Company yesterday filed with the secretary of state articles providing for the reduction of its capital stock from $395,400,000 to $3,954,000. The new capital stock is just one percent of the original outstanding capital. It is provided that for each share of stock of the Northern Securities Company of the par value of $100 each, the stockholders shall receive stock of the Northern Pacific railroad of the par value of $39.27 and stock of the Great Northern railroad of the par value of $30.17. This is really the final distribution that was attacked in the courts by E. H. Harriman, but decided in favor of Hill. Home for Trainmen. Colorado Springs, Colo., April 19.—C. W. Hosman of Denver, chairman of the legislative committee of the Brotherhood of Railway Trainmen, is in this city to inspect the Union Printers' Home, with a view to recommending a home of similar nature to the brotherhood at its national convention in Buffalo, New York, May 15th. Mr. Hosman expressed himself as well pleased with the Printers' Home, and was of the opinion that his organization will construct a home for its aged and infirm members, the project to cost upward of $200,000. Colorado Springs and Denver are rivals for the home, which probably will be erected in Colorado. MOVEMENT OF RUSSIAN FLEET Japanese Charge Infringements French Neutrality—Squadrons Not Definitely Located. London, April 19.—The latest news from the Far East shows that certainly a portion of the Russian second Pacific squadron was still coaling at Kamranh bay Saturday morning, April 15. This news was brought to Singapore by the British steamer Sui-Sang and to Hong Kong by the French steamer Phu-Yen. The former merely reports passing the Russian ships at 11 o'clock in the morning. The Phu-Yen's officers saw twenty vessels coaling in the bay, and it is suspected that the remainder of the fleet was inside the harbor. According to the Mail's correspondent at Signapore, the Sui-Sang, which was not molested by the Russians, sighted a big French warship two hours later, fourteen miles to the southward, evidently proceeding to Kamranh bay. The piecemeal character of the news excludes the possibility of any accurate estimate of the movements of Vice Admiral Rojestvensky's squadron, but it would seem to show that the vice admiral has divided his forces, a portion of which went northward before Saturday. What has happened since then it is impossible to say, and there is no clear evidence even that the Russians have been within the three-mile limit which would bring them, according to international regulations, into infringements of French neutrality. The fact that they were visible to passing ships would appear to show that they were outside the limit. What has happened since then it is impossible to say, and there is no clear evidence even that the Russians have been within the three-mile limit which would bring them, according to international regulations, into infringements of French neutrality. The fact that they were visible to passing ships would appear to show that they were outside the limit. Japanese sentiment, however, is greatly disturbed. The correspondent at Tokio of the Telegraph says he has no hesitation in declaring that should occasion arise and her preliminary protests be ignored, Japan will regard any anchorage occupied by the Russian fleet as its naval base and deal with the situation accordingly. A dispatch from Saigon states that a quantity of goods purchased there has been delivered to a portion of the Russian fleet off the coast of Indo-China. It is impossible to locate Sampaloo Point, off which, according to the Manila correspondent of the Mall, sixteen Japanese cruisers and other craft were scouting Tuesday morning, but the Mall thinks the Japanese fleet was maneuvering to prevent the Russians from entering the Pacific between the Philippines and Formosa. IRRIGATION EXCURSION. Itinerary of Congressional Tour Next Summer. Washington, April 19.—Arrangements for the congressional irrigation excursion to the West in June have been perfected, and as now planned the excursion will be made up in Kansas City June 1st. Two compartment cars will be furnished, the cars and transportation being offered free by the railroads; the meals and other expenses en route to be paid for by the excursionists. The excursion, the projectors say, is not in any sense a junket, but a purely business proposition to give members of Congress an opportunity to see for themselves what is being done under the national irrigation act, and to see the necessity for further work.

Mexico City, April 19.—John Alexander Dowie of Chicago has closed negotiations and obtained options on a tract of 2,000,000 acres of land in the state of Tamaulipas where he proposes to found a new Zion City. Fourth in the World The average resident of Chicago now exclaims with St. Paul: "I am a citizen of no mean city." Chicago's population at this time exceeds 2,000,000. The canvass just now begun by the publishers of the Chicago directory is expected to show 2,100,000 inhabitants on the basis of the census of 1900, which is believed to have been incorrect. Based on the census of 1890, it is thought that it will show a population of upwards of 2,400,000. Averaging these two estimates, the population of Chicago appears to be equal to that of Manhattan and the Bronx, which is estimated as being this year 2,245,000. Chicago has grown to be as large as the old city of New York without Brooklyn, Queens and Richmond added thereto. It is safe to say that she is now the fourth city in the world in population, coming after London, New York and Paris. More creditable even than this rapid development in population is the fact that Chicago has made noteworthy progress in municipal reform, and in municipal ownership of public utilities, with a common sense civil service law as a basis. With the latter, and that which goes with it—an alert public opinion—municipal ownership is always successful. A Wonderful Discovery. Broadland, S. Dak., April 17. Quite a sensation has been created here by the publication of the story of G. W. Gray, who after a special treatment for three months was prostrate and helpless and given up to die with Bright's Disease. Bright's Disease has always been considered incurable, but evidently from the story told by Mr. Gray, there is a remedy which will cure it even in the most advanced stages. This is what he says: "I was helpless as a little babe. My wife and I searched everything and read everything we could find about Bright's Disease, hoping that I would be able to find a remedy. After many failures my wife insisted that I should try Dodd's Kidney Pills. I praise God for the day when I decided to do so. for this remedy met every phase of my case and in a short time I was able to get out of bed and after a few weeks' treatment I was a strong, well man. Dodd's Kidney Pills saved my life." A remedy that will cure Bright's Disease will cure any lesser Kidney Disease. Dodd's Kidney Pills are certainly the most wonderful discovery which modern medical research has given to the world: GREAT NEW YORK SHOW Spectacular Wonders of the New Hip podrome The Hippodrome, New York's newest and largest place of amusement, was opened to the public April 12th, under the management of Thompson & Dundy. Every one of the 5,200 seats was taken, and wherever there was standing space it was filled. The performance began with the spectacle, "A Yankee Circus on Mars." The first scene showed a stranded American circus about to be sold at auction. It is bought by a Magian, who takes it to his planet and this gives opportunity in the following scene to show very elaborate stage settings. Following the "Circus on Mars" came a spectacular production of American Civil War incidents, "Andersonville, a Story of Wilson's Raiders." In this there was a battle scene, bringing numbers or mounted men on the stage. The great hippodrome tank was utilized in the battle scene, the forepart of the stage sinking, this process of submersion continuing for several minutes until the stage represented a river. With mounted troops represented in retreat, horses and riders rush forward and plunge into the river, many feet deep. Many horses were in the water at the same time and the magnitude of the presentation of the battle made a very effective scene. The Hippodrome stage is remarkably large and at times was crowded. Hundreds of persons and many animals, including elephants and horses, were in view at one time, making a very animated and picturesque stage scene. The circus specialties introduced in the first part of the performance were unusually good. HONEST CONFESSION. A Doctor's Talk on Food There are no fairer set of men on earth than the doctors, and when they find they have been in error they are usually apt to make honest and manly confession of the fact. A case in point is that of an eminent practitioner, one of the good old school, who lives in Texas. His plain, unvarnished tale needs no dressing up: "I had always had an intense prejudice, which I can now see was unwarrantable and unreasonable, against all muchly advertised foods. Hence, I never read a line of the many 'ads.' of Grape-Nuts, nor tested the food till last winter. "While in Corpus Christi for my health, and visiting my youngest son, who has four of the ruddiest, healthiest little boys I ever saw. I ate my first dish of Grape-Nuts food for supper with my little grandsons. I became exceedingly fond of it and have eaten a package of it every week since, and find it a delicious, refreshing and strengthening food, leaving no ill effects whatever, causing no eructations (with which I was formerly much troubled), no sense of fullness, nausea, nor distress of stomach in any way. "There is no other food that agrees with me so well, or sits as lightly or pleasantly upon my stomach as this does. I am stronger and more active since I began the use of Grape-Nuts than I have been for 10 years, and am no longer troubled with nausea and indigestion." Namé given by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich.

Face Like Raw Beef—Thought She Would Lose Her Ear—Healed Without a Blemish—Mother Thanks Cuticura. "My little girl had eczema very bad when she was ten months old. I thought she would lose her right ear. It had turned black, and her face was like a piece of raw meat, and very sore. It would bleed when I washed her, and I had to keep cloths on it day and night. There was not a clear spot on her face when I began using Cuticura Soap and Ointment, and now it is completely healed, without scar or blemish, which is more than I had hoped for. (Signed) Mrs. Rose Ether, 291 Eckford St., Brooklyn, N. Y." Edith—Have just had my photograph taken. What do you think of it? Bertha—Why, it's perfectly splendid. It's a beautiful picture!

If it finds that an unjust rate is in effect, the railroad is notified. If it declines to change it, the Commission can bring suit in Court and if the Court decides in favor of the Commissioners' finding, the railroad must obey, or its officers may be brought up for contempt of court and summarily dealt with.

PAINFUL Suggestions How to Suffer Miss Nellie Holmes While no woman is entirely free from periodical suffering, it does not seem to be the plan of nature that women should suffer so severely. Menstruation is a severe strain on a woman's vitality. If it is painful or irregular something is wrong which should be set right or it will lead to a serious derangement of the whole female organism. More than fifty thousand women have testified in grateful letters to Mrs. Pinkham that Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound overcomes painful and irregular menstruation. It provides a safe and sure way of escape from distressing and dangerous weaknesses and diseases. The two following letters tell so convincingly what Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound will do for women, they cannot fail to bring hope to thousands of sufferers. Miss Nellie Holmes of 540 N. Davision Street, Buffalo, N. Y., writes: Deer Mrs. Pinkham: "Your medicine is indeed an ideal medicine for women. I suffered misery for years with painful periods, headaches, and bearing-down pains. I consulted two different physicians but failed to get any relief. A friend from the East advised me to try Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. I did so, and no longer suffer as I did before. My periods were ill, acne and pain gone, and my general health is much improved, advise all women who suffer to take Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound." Mrs. Tillie Hart, of Larimore, N. D., writes: Dear Mrs. Pinkham:— "I might have have been spared many miles of the efficacy of Lyda E. Pinkham's known of the efficacy of Lyda E.

Deafness Cannot Be Cured say local, applications, as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure deafness, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an inflamed condition of the ear. If the ear is inflamed, the tube is inflamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed, Deafness is the result, and unless the inflammation can be cured, the tube will not heal. Inflammation, hearing will be destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh, which is nothing but an inflamed condition of the mucous surfaces. Catarrh is caused by inflammation of Deafness (caused by catarrh) that cannot be cured by Hall's Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars, free. Sold by Druggists. 75c.

TEA Did you learn tea cookery? When did you learn and who was your teacher? Are you a real tea cook? Never try to tan a dog's hide with his own bark. Vegetable Compound soacer; for I have tried so many remedies without help. "I dreaded the approach of my menstrual period every month, as it meant so much pain and suffering for me, but after I had used the Compound two months I became regular and natural and am now perfectly well and free from pain at my monthly periods. I am very grateful for what Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound has done for me." Such testimony should be accepted by all women as convincing evidence that Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound stands without a peer as a remedy for all the distressing ills of women. The success of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound rests upon the well-earned gratitude of American women. When women are troubled with irregular, suppressed or painful menstruation, leucorrhoea, displacement or ulceration of the womb, that bearing-down feeling, inflammation of the ovaries, backache, bloating, (or flatulency), general debility, indigestion and nervous prostration, or are beset with such symptoms as dizziness, faintness, lassitude, excitability, irritability, nervousness, sleeplessness, melancholy, they should remember there is one tried and true remedy. Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound at once removes such troubles. Refuse to buy any other medicine, for you need the best. Don't hesitate to write to Mrs. Pinkham if there is anything about your sickness you do not understand. She will treat you with kindness and her advice is tree. No woman ever regretted writing her and she has helped thousands. Address Lynn, Mass. an Best Understands a Woman's Ills STOVE REPAIRS of every known make of stove, furnace or range. Geo. A.

"Oh, beautifully; she used to be a teacher in a reform school."—Detroit Free Press. "Why seek ye the living among the dead? He is not here but is risen" Luke xxiv.5.6. "After that He appeared in another form unto two of them" Mark xv1.12 EASTER AND THE PLANTS Legends of Holy Events Preserved in Names Our minds are used to making definite pictures, and so as we recall each holiday of the year, we clothes it in its own material dress. The Fourth of July we drape in flags and fireworks; Christmas we enwreathe in holly and mistletoe; Valentine's Day we deck with hearts and darts; and Easter we embower in flowers. Nature herself is responsible for our picture of Easter, for at the approach of this season, the bare fields and naked trees exert themselves to send forth some glow of welcome. The landscape is changed. Instead of deathlike inactivity, there is the stir of life and aspiration. Man himself feels a fresh impulse, and as his sympathies broaden out to embrace the world, he takes new notice of the plants and blossoms whose awakening beauty is transforming the city park or woodsy glen. When one comes to observe the flowers, he learns their names. If he have a tendency to inquire the whys and wherefores, he soon realizes that Easter itself has had a great influence in the naming of plants. The Resurrection, of which Easter is the commemoration, is the foundation of Christianity, and before this new religion swept over Europe, the plants were often named for pagan deities. We have to-day a reminiscence of this in Venus's Fly Trap and Jupiter's Beard. As soon as Christianity converted a nation, it abolished all pagan names and substituted in their place the titles connected with the new faith. As men and cities had to be rechristened, so had the plant world also. The Savior Himself had few plants named for Him, probably from a feeling of reverence. We have, however, Christ's Thorn, which is supposed to have supplied the material for His crown. His mother was much honored. All blossoms with "Virgin" prefixed, as Virgin's Bower, were named for her; and those, too, that have "Maiden," as Maiden's Hair, and any form of "Mary," as Marigold. Each flower that reaches us to-day with "Lady" in its title was originally "Our Lady," as "Our Lady's Slipper" and "Our Lady's Tresses." In the renaming, many plants were called after saints. To-day we retain only a few of these names, as Saint John's Wort, Saint Peter's Wreath, Saint Andrew's Cross, Saint Joseph's Lily, and Veronica. As we have swerved to secularism, we have again changed the names, though we have never reverted to the original titles held before the Christian era. We name generally to pay honor to some noted person, either scientist or otherwise. The progress of science is nowhere more marked than in the popular attitude toward plants. Our ancestors were as eager for explanations as we are to-day, and not having our scientific information, they interpreted the peculiarities of the flowers to suit their own ideas. From their interpretation of plants on the economic side, grew the great Doctrine of Signatures which ruled the medical world down to the seventeenth century. This Doctrine of Signatures explained that "the mercy of God . . . maketh the grass to grow upon the mountains and the herbs for the use of man, and hath not only stamped upon them a distinct form, but also given them particular signatures, whereby a man may read even in legible characters the use of them." According to this theory, plants bearing red fruit were good for the blood; the barberry, because of its yellow bark, was a cure for jaundice; the trembling grass deterred attacks of ague; Our Lady's Thistle, with its numerous prickles, mended a stitch in the side; the oxalies, having cordate leaves, was a preventive of heart disease; the Solomon's Seal, by certain marks in its root, writes Gerarde, an English surgeon of the sixteenth century, "taketh away in one night, or at the most, any bruise, black or blue spots, gotten by falls or women's willfulness in stumbling upon their hasty husbands" fists." Our English literature abounds in allusions to this Doctrine of Signatures, as when Milton in "Then purged with euphrasy and rue The visual nerve, for he had much to see" makes Gabriel clear Adam's vision with the little euphrasy or eyebright, which, because of a dark, pupil-like spot on its corolla, was considered a cure for weak eyes. While evolving the Doctrine of Signatures, on the one hand, our forefathers developed, on the other, a spiritual lore of plants that connected the flowers with the foundation of their religion. Our Lady's Thistle, The First Easter Bearing a burden holy Down from the hill of shame. With heavy hearts, and slowly, The friends of Jesus came. With His dear life forever All joy and hope had flown; O saddest night that ever This sad old earth has known! But Oh, the happy morrow. When at the break of day They sought His tomb with sorrow— The stone was rolled away! Such happy day shall never Dawn for the world again. Yet shall its joy forever Bless all the sons of men. O Thou from death arisen, Bend down and hear us pray! Chained in a fleshy prison, We call to Thee to-day. The asphodels of heaven Are fair, we know, to see; But each flower we have given Bears prayer and praise to Thee. —Ninette M. Lowater. legend said, derived its name from the flight of the holy family from Bethlehem. As Mary nursed the Infant by the roadside, a few drops of her milk fell on a plant at her feet, and the leaves retain to this very generation the vouchers for the story. Most of the Christian legends explain the plant's behavior during Passion week. The Veronica bears the imprint that Saint Veronica received on her handkerchief when she pressed from out the throng and wiped the perspiration from the Savior's brow. The Fritillaria, or Checkered Lily, before the sacrifice, was pure white, with upturned cup. It stood proudly erect during the suffering, until darkness enshrouded the earth, and it saw that all nature but itself was sorrowing. Then it repented. It drooped low its head, donned garments of mourning, and began to weep. T2- day, it still grieves, in somber attire, with bowed head, and still each petal ever sheds a pearly tear. The oxalis, or wood sorrel, was standing at the foot of the cross, and received some drops of the precious blood. These she bears even to this day. The Italians have this same legend about the oxalis, which they call "alleluula," to indicate that the little blossom is glorifying God for its great privilege. The scarlet anemone, too, is said to bear the stains of Christ's blood. The poppy yet carries the memory of the cross deeply graven in her heart. The banana, too, preserves the cross in the center of its fruit. For this reason, the people of the Canary Islands will never cut through a banana as we do; if they ever use a knife to it, they slice it on lengthwise. The aspen still shivers with morse because, when Christ passed it on the way to Calvary, it boldly faced the heavens, instead of paying homage, as the other trees did. The willow was used for scourges, and ever since it has bowed its branches in sorrow. The elder is commonly supposed to be the tree upon which Judas hanged himself. It is not to be used even for firewood. However, it is a safe refuge in time of storm, for not even lightning will deign to strike it. A fungus that grows on the elder and is now known as Jew's ear, was originally called Judas' ear. The cedar, the pine, and the box are all connected with the crucifixion. Different authorities vary in just what woods did form the cross. Bede says the cypress, the cedar, the pine, and the box; but Saint Chrysostom quotes from Isaiah 1x:13: "The glory of Lebanon (cedar) shall come unto thee, the fir tree, the pine tree, and the box, together to beautify my sanctuary." The church fathers considered four woods necessary to the cross to symbolize the four quarters of the globe over which its influence would spread. One tradition says that the cross was made of apple wood, the inference being obvious. An old English legend carries the cross back to the days of our first parents. Adam sent Abel to an angel to petition him to show them the path back to Eden. The angel gave Abel three seeds, saying that from their trunks would spring the path to Paradise. The seeds were planted, and one tree, at least, a magnificent cedar, was flourishing at the time Solomon erected his temple. This glorious king had the tree cut down to furnish a ridge pole, but after it was brought in, it was found to be too short. Then it was cast aside and lay waste by the pool of Bethesda until it was taken to form the cross. The old legends may seem to us now relics of a superstitious age, and yet they indicate a step in our own civilization. They represent the time when man considered all things made for himself. Their 'peculiar traits, or formation, people believed, must show some connection with his history, or imagery, if we have to-day risen to the higher epoch, where we see that each created thing lives for its own development and not to minister to our needs, it is because of the many more Easters we have experienced since our ancestors' days.—Katherine Chandler in Los Angelos Times.
