Washington Delivers Interesting Address before Large Audience. VOL. XI. Hampton Ind Holds Thirty-seventh Anniver Booker T. Washington Address before At the thirty-seventh anniversary of the Hampton Normal and Industrial Institute held the first week in May, Booker T. Washington made the following address: "There is no spot save one, and no state save one, that are so dear to me as Hampton Institute and the State of Virginia. At the one I received education, and in the other I was born. I have always been proud of the fact that I am a Virginian and a Southerner. No man is more loyal to the state of his birth than I am. "Such a gathering as this is fraught with the deepest interest and encouragement We are sometimes inclined to grow discouraged that greater progress has not been made in the South. When we witness such a scene as this, where are gathered Northern men, Southern men and colored men, all having in view the common object of furtherining the interest of the whole South, I repeat that it is an occasion of the greatest encouragement and satisfaction. When we consider all the trials through which the South has passed during the last dozen years, the wonder is that we have accomplished so much rather than that we have accomplished so little. There have been those who for years have predicted a war in the South between the races, but no such war has taken place, and in my opinion, is not likely to occur; but we are united in our efforts to make war upon ignorace, crime and immorality." Continuing, Mr. Washington paid a feeling tribute to the life and character of the Dead Chieftain of the Confederacy, Maj. General Fitzhugh Lee, praising him as representing the type of Southern gentleman who was always generous to the Negro. This tribute greatly stirred the Southerners present and they applauded again and again, the sentiment of the speaker. Mr. Washington dealt frankly with the peculiar relations that exist between the races in the South, and asked for a franker understanding in all that goes to make for Southern civilization. Said he in this connection: "I wish that the white people of this country would place themselves in a position to see more of the progress that the black man is making. I wish more might take the time and trouble to see the Negro homes that are being purchased, schools that are being taught, the churches that are be- ing built, and the farms and stores and places of industry that are being operated by our people. "One of the objections urged against the universal education of our people in some quarters, is to the effect that if all the Negroes are educated no one would be left to perform menial services. In this connection let me ask this question; Is it not true that wherever one finds the highest degree of intelligence, without exception, does he not then find the most satisfactory service, whether of hand, head or heart? "A commonwealth can afford to have ignorant slaves and exist, but never ignorant freemen and be safe. It is not, as a rule, the educated man or woman of my race who is guilty of crime or who is charged with crime. It is the one who has never had the great American chance. "Our country will not be safe so long as it carries such a load of ignorance. We have attempted for a number of years to stop crime by lynching, but there are some conditions which cannot be lynched away. One cannot lynch disease, ignorance or idleness; these conditions can only be cured by education. "All the conditions to which I have been referring can be helped forward immensely by the best white people and the best colored people in each community frequently conferring together concerning their mutual interests. It is largely through such co-operation that a public sentiment has been created within the last six months, which has nearly blotted out the crime of lynching. It is a matter of greatest encouragement that whereas in 1904 there were 205 lynchings in the South, during the past six months there have been only thirteen. In November there was not a single one, and not one reported for the month of April. "The Negro is often called an imitative race. This may be true, but bear in mind that he usually imitates the best civilization. You do not hear of a Negro imitating a Chinaman or a Filipino. All this goes to show that the white man should set the Negro the very best example. "While we should not overlook the seriousness of the work that is before us, or the wrongs often inflicted upon us, there is great cause for hope and encouragement. "We have passed through the period of the introduction of DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, MAY 20, 1905. American slavery; we have passed through the period of the destruction of that hurtful institution; we have gone through the trying period of reconstruction, and have now entered upon an era of construction. In this glorious work all of us, black and white, North and South, helped and led by the inspiring example of Hampton, can earnestly unite." Cannon City Netes. Mr. William Thomas is on the sick list.

A Chicago dispatch says:— "Eight hundred pupils of the Hendricks Public School went on a strike today because a colored teamster of the Peabody Coal Comany delivered a load of coal at at the building." Springfield, Ill., May 17. Gov. Deneen has signed the anti-mob law bill of Edward B. Green, colored member from the first district of Cook county. It provides for the removal of a sheriff allowing a prisoner to be taken from him and lynched, and for a fine of $1,000 for participation in a lynching mob. The circular asks also for an estimate of the damages to the applicants for such refusal on the part of the United States and for such deportations, holding the acts of officials of this country, under the law and in view of the termination of the treaty and after the rejection of the proposed consent of the Chinese government to reasonable exclusion of Chinese, to be hostile to a friendly nation. The stand taken by the Board of Education of San Francisco against the admission of Chinese and Japanese pupils to schools where white children are being educated is not founded on justice and savors much of politics. Years ago it was the colored child and our parents had a hard fight to break down the barrier. It is all wrong to encourage race prejudice of any kind and children should not have their minds thus poisoned. Battle Creek, Mich.—Perry Sanford, the oldest colored citizen of this city, a former Kentucky slave attempted to commit suicide at Nichols' Hospital by cutting his throat with a knife. Sanford is the last surviving witness of the invasion of this state in 1846, by armed Kentuckians, who forcibly attempted to capture a fugitive slave from the famous Quaker settlement in Cass county. The failures of this invasion and the subsequent excitement throughout the Southern States resulted in the passage of the fugitive slave law by Congress. Chicago, May 16.—Enoch Carlson, 8 years, was shot and killed tonight by a Negro, a former employee of the Peobody Coal company, which hss sustained an active part in the teamsters' strike. Two colored men were walking along Twenty-seventh street, when some boys who were playing ball in an adjoining lot. Just as he did so the Carlson boy came around the corner, and the bullet struck him in the left groin. He died while being taken to the hospital. The colored men escaped, but it is believed that they will be arrested within a short time. Wilkesbarre, Pa., May 15.—All members of the African Methodist church of Scanton who attended a recent performance of Williams and Walker's Negro show, "Down tn Dahomey," have been suspended from the church for three months by Rev. H. C. Catwood. D. D., the pastor. He declares they violated their duty to God and the church, are not fitted to take communion, and that if there is a repetition of the offense he will dismiss them from the church. As the performance was the first one of its kind in Scanton this season, many colored people attended and many are affected by the pastor's ruling. Washington, April 25. The Supreme Court of the United States will soon be called on to decide whether the crime of lynching is an offence against the constitution of the United States. The question arises in connection with the case of Thomas M. Riggins of Madison county, Alabama, which the court has advanced on the docket and will consider on printed briefs. Riggins and others were indicted by a jury of the Uuited States Circuit Court of Alabama on the charge of lynching Horace Maples, a Negro, "by reason of the latter's race." Riggins contends that the Federal courts have no jurisdiction in such cases. Chicago, May 10.—More than 1,000 Negroes have assembled at Bethel A. M. E. church, and adopted resolutions read by Mrs. Ida Wells-Barnett, protesting against the action of the department store drivers union which the resolutions asserted, circulated a slanderous letter against the Negro drivers, declaring them to be loafers and not willing to work. This charge was denounced as a willful, malicious false-hood, urged against men who proved their valor by risking their lives to obtain work. The resolution also called upon the Mayor to save hard-working citizens from that kind of protection which lets the rioter go free and sends the victims to the jails and hospitals. Never in all the history of the South has there been a greater need for her universities to serve her well than today. The whole Southern country is athirst for education. Colleges and schools are feeling as never before the quickening impulse of rich gifts from North and South. There is under way an economic revolution which for the first time bids fair to develop all of the vast material resources of the old slave States. The Negro, hitherto a burden, even when most highly prized as a chattel, is lifting himself into prosperity and usefulness with fairly astounding speed. Yet with it all there is a deplorable lack of intellectual and moral, as well as of brave and honest political leadership from Virginia to the Gulf. Never before in the land of Jefferson has there been such a call for enlightened statesmanship.—New York Post.

The drawing of the color line by the members of the university baseball team this week prevented a game between the varsity and the junior literary teams. The third year literary men have an exceptionally strong nine and they NO. 34. had scheduled a practice game McAllister's proteges. A short time before the game was to be called the 'varsity players learned that one of the junior men is colored. An indignation meeting was held and word was sent to the joriors that if the scheduled game was to take place the colored gentleman—"Col." Hopkins—would have to be dropped from the battling list. The junior nine got together' talked over the matter, and decided that they would not be dictated to, and that anyway they could note go into a game where they could not take Hopkins, one of their best men. Messages was sent back and forth between the two camps, but both sides held firm, and the result was that the game was called off. Hopkins is an able athlete, but has made no attempt to try for any of the 'varsity teams. He gets out with his class football and baseball teams, however, and has made them since he entered college.—News Tribune. Probably the first building ever given by a railroad to its colored employees has been donated to the Colored Railroad Men's Protective Association recently organized in Nashville, Tenn. The building at 930 Cedar street, at the corner of Ninth avenue has been given by Superintendent W. P. Bruce of the Nashville Terminals to the above organization, and is being repaired and remodeled by the Terminal company at a cost of about $400. It is proposed by General Manager Thomas of the N. C. & St. L. Ry., to donate all old furniture, books and periodicals in the possession of the railroad to the association for use in their building. In this way the quarters will be nicely furnished and stocked with reading matter. The association is composed of colored employees of the Nashville Terminals, N. C. & St. L. Ry., and L, & N. Ry., residing in Davidson county, and already there is a very gratifying membership. Several of the officials and employees have subscribed money toward a fund for maintaining and equipping the building. Life's Lover. With those who kneel to her for gifts He came to where Life's altars rise; And some she crowned for royal state. And some she crowned for sacrifice. Garlands she had of palm and bay. Laurel and thorn; the lily white For the whose lives are prayers; the rose For those who follow Love's delight. Then he, her lover, climbed at last The steps of Hope whereon she stands And, smiling, asked her, "What for me?" And reached to her his empty hands. "Ev'n as the gods," she said, "so I. My best for you, Belov'd, keep." And she asked, she sat. The poppy garland bringing sleep. -Chicago Tribune. German Maneuver Prize.

COLE MURDERERS MUST DIE BOARD OF PARDONS SO DECIDES Two of the Murderers of Mra. Young- blood to Be Hanged at An-Four. Denver, Colo., May 18.—After the hearing yesterday in the governor's office, the state board of pardons announced its decision in the case of the three Youngblood murderers, who sought a commutation of sentence from hanging to life imprisonment. The verdict was that Frederick Arnold and Newton Andrews must be hanged on the week beginning Sunday, May 21st. Charles O. Peters, whose sanity has been questioned, was granted a six months' reprieve, and will be hanged the week beginning November 19th. All phases of the case were carefully considered by the board of pardons. A report submitted by the sanity commission, signed by three of the doctors, stated that all three of the murderers are sane. An additional report, signed by Dr. J. E. Courtney with regard to the mental condition of Charles O. Peters, indicated uncertainty, and this undoubtedly led to his reprieve. It was a sad gathering in the governor's office. The members of the board of pardons were intent upon carrying out the law, and their final decision does so to the letter. The tears of mothers and relatives present were of no avail and neither were the pleas of attorneys for the youths. Willis Elliott made a strong plea for clemency for the men. He does not believe in capital punishment and made a sincere and eloquent talk against it. Col. J. M. Essington, Arnold's attorney, also spoke, asking clemency. Dr. Pierce S. Smith made a general argument against capital punishment. Governor McDonald probably will approve the report of the board as he has stated he would be guided by its recommendation. The following is the report of the sanity commission: "May 12, 1905. "We have this day examined as to the mental condition of Charles O. Peters, No. 5974, Frederick Arnold and Newton Andrews, now confined in the state penitentiary under sentence for death. In our opinion, each of the said convicts is sane. Respectfully. "HOWELL T. PERSHING, M. D. "S. D. HOPKINS, M. D. "F. N. CARRIER, M. D." Dr. Courtney's report states that while there are many indications that Peters is feigning insanity, some of his symptoms are those of dementia, leaving a reasonable doubt as to his sanity. Willis Elliott stated last night that if sufficient money can be raised for the purpose, the case of the Youngblood murderers will be taken on appeal to the United States Supreme Court, providing Governor McDonald will grant a stay of execution. It is estimated that it would cost between $600 and $600 to appeal the case. An appeal would be taken on behalf of some one member of the trio, which would have the effect of staying execution in all three, if the high court accepted the case. Annual Meeting of Colorado and Wyoming Veterans in Denver. Denver, May 18.—With the reception at the depot of General Wilmon W. Blackmar, national commander-in-chief of the Grand Army of the Republic, opened its annual encampment yesterday morning. General Blackmar was accompanied by his adjutant general, John E. Gilman of Boston; Mrs. Gilman, Mrs. Blackmar and the latter's sister, Miss Jennie Brewer. More than 300 veterans, with Col. Charles Wallace and his drum corps, were waiting at the depot at 10:30 o'clock yesterday morning to greet General Blackmar and party. The visitors were delighted with their reception and General Blackmar was particularly pleased at the announcement of Col. Harper M. O. Arahood that former Mayor Wright's fine gray horse had been tendered to the general for his use during the national encampment in this city next September. It is the striking resemblance between General Blackmar and the former mayor that has caused such a friendship to spring up between them. Following a brief reception at the hotel the several women's auxiliary bodies opened their business sessions at the places selected for their meetings, after which they adjudicated to attend the open meeting of the G. A. R. encampment in Unity church. At 2:30 in the afternoon, the department of Colorado and Wyoming formally opened its encampment in Unity church, addresses of welcome being made by Governor McDonald for the state, and Harry E. Insley, representing Mayor Speer, who welcomed the visitors to Denver. Department Commander T. J. Downen of Pueblo presided. Stirring addresses were given by General Blackmar and General Gilman, and then Commander Downen read his annual address, which is regarded as one of the ablest ever made by any commander since the department was organized. Last evening there was a reception to General Blackmar and party at the Albany hotel. This morning the department will begin its business session at 9 o'clock at Unity church. Grand Army Festival. Denver, May 18.—A committee of the Memorial and Benevolent Association of the G. A. R. posts of Denver has closed a contract with Harold A. Bushea, manager of the Great Gaskill Shows, to give a fair and festival on the grounds at Welton and Twenty-third streets in this city for nine days beginning June 21st. A share of the profits will be divided among the Grand Army posts to be used to defray necessary expenses preliminary to the national encampment. Maj. William Warner, United States senator-elect from Missouri, will be invited to deliver an oration at the opening of the fair. COLORADO NEWS ITEMS one hundred squirrels have been set loose in the City Park at Denver. A prairie dog village is another attraction for the children. The Colorado Horse and Cattle Growers' Association is laying plans for the wholesale destruction of prairie dogs on the ranges. Colorado Springs has an ordinance forbidding the beating of carpets inside the city limits. The inhabitants get dust enough from other sources. If experiments that are to be conducted this season in beet culture are successful Durango will make a strong bid for a beet sugar factory next year.

They also state that the cost of building is no greater now than at any time for the past five years. At Salida on the 8th inst. Archie Kimball, aged seventeen years, captured a young mountain lion which had been driven into the city by the heavy snows.

Hess, a graduate of Colorado College, was chosen fellow in political economy and Helen Summer of Denver was made honorary fellow in the same branch. Governor McDonald has appointed Dr. L. R. Lemen of Denver to be a member of the State Board of Health, vice Hubert Work of Pueblo, resigned. Dr. Work's reason for resigning is the fact that he lives so far away from Denver that he cannot spare time for the work. The following postmosters have been appointed in Colorado: Charles M. Ayres, Needleton, La Plata county, vice A. A. Steward, resigned; John S. Kemnitz, Rosita, Custer county, vice W. L. Kirk, resigned; George M. White, Vega, Mesa county, vice H. N. Campbell, resigned. Dressed in overalls and jumpers, 200 students of the University of Denver recently planted 200 trees on the campus. This was the direct result of a department of landscape gardening, which has been installed at the university. Ash, elm and locust trees were planted. The result of examinations of the mineral waters of Manitou by Professor Wolcott of the School of Mines, which showed that the waters were radio-active, has caused local promoters to think seriously of erecting a large sanitarium in Manitou for the cure of cancerous diseases. Governor McDonald and Attorney General Miller have arranged to retain the services of Professor Carpenter, former state engineer, pending the decision of the Kansas-Colorado water suit. No other man is so well informed on the question in controversy and his services will be invaluable. The time for putting in operation the new stage route from Arrowhead to points in Routt county has been changed from May 15th to June 1st, owing to the impassable condition of the roads over the range, there being from two to three feet of snow on the level for many miles on both sides of the summit. Great interest is shown by Pueblo real estate dealers who handle ranch lands in the soil culture scheme advocated by the Business Men's Association. Many experiments are being conducted in the growth of different products on arid lands without irrigation, and thus far they are said to have been successful. Dean H. Martyn Hart of St. John's Episcopal cathedral in Denver is on the way to Europe, where he will visit the bell foundries at Nauheim, Germany, where the magnificent chimes for the new cathedral are being made.

PAINFUL SCIATICA PAINFUL SCIATICA EVERY SUFFERER WANTS THE VERY QUIOKEST OURE. Mr. Donovan Thinks the Remedy Used by Him with Such Remarkable Success the Best-Cured by Five Boxes. "Men who have to do difficult and dangerous work on electric lines at any hour of day or night, can't afford to have anything the matter with their health," said Mr. Donovan. You can imagine, therefore, how much I was alarmed one winter's day in 1902, when I was seized by a pain just behind my right hip that made it difficult for me to walk home. It was so bad by the time I reached the house that I was obliged to go straight to bed." "Did that relieve you?" "No, the pain grew more severe and kept extending downward along my leg. I sent for a physician, and he soon decided that I had sciatica. In a few days the whole nerve was affected, and the least movement brought on terrible agony." "Did your condition improve under the doctor's treatment?" "Quite the contrary. At the end of two months I wasn't a bit better, and at times I feared that I would never be able to leave my bed." "How did you get out again?" "When I was lying in bed, unable to move and wasting away in flesh, a friend visited me and told me about the wonderful cures brought about by a great blood and nerve remedy, Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. He strongly urged me to try them, and I luckily had sense enough to take his advice." "Did you mend quickly?" "Yes, that was the astonishing thing. I noticed a slight improvement before I had quite finished the first box of the pills, I could get out of bed while I was on the third box, and I was entirely cured by the time I had taken five boxes." Mr, Joseph A. Donovan is living at Plaistow, New Hampshire, and is line inspector for the Haverhill, Newton and Plaistow Electric Street Railway.

Lady Suffered Tortures Until Cured by Cuticura—Scratched Day and Night. "My scalp was covered with little pimples and I suffered tortures from the itching. I was scratching all day and night, and I could get no rest. I washed my head with hot water and Cuticura Soap and then applied the Cuticura Ointment as a dressing. One box of the Ointment and one cake of Cuticura Soap cured me. Now my head is entirely clear and my hair is growing splendidly. I have used Cuticura Soap ever since, and shall never be without it.

Private Car Lines. The railroads seem very willing to have the private car lines brought under the jurisdiction of the Interstate Commerce Commission. A railroad president is authority for the statement that lines are paid mileage, without discrimination, and the question of excessive charges is a matter for the shipper to settle with the car lines, so long as there is no law to govern their rates. Car mileage paying has been decided to be as legal as the payment of rental for property. Miss Flirty—Your husband tried to kiss me last night. Mrs. Dash—Ah!

GIRLS CAUSE TROUBLE MEMBERS OF THE BOARD RESIGN Disagreement in Regard to Colorado Industrial School for Girls—Expected Change of Management. Denver, May 16.—Following is the Republican's version of the Industrial School difficulties: All of the five members of the board of control of the State Industrial School for Girls have resigned, not just three of them as stated yesterday. The resignations have been in the hands of the governor for the last week and he will appoint a new board to reorganize the work at that institution. The members of the present board are Mrs. Martha Taft, Mrs. J. B. Hunter, Mrs. Harriett G. R. Wright, Robert M. Golder, all of this city, and Dr. Josephine Peavy of Colorado Springs. The dissolution of the board is the result of abolishing corporal punishment, as stated yesterday, and the trouble has been brewing for some time. Mrs. Taft, Mr. Golder and Dr. Peavey are a majority of the board and they are opposed to inflicting corporal punishment. Miss Emma Page is the superintendent and she is a disciple of Solomon, whose wisdom was interpreted by the Indiana pedagogue when he said: "No lickin', no learnin'." The minority of the board, composed of Mrs. Hunter and Mrs. Wright, sides with the matron. Starting with this disagreement, the trouble grew until, it is said, one member at least went around peddling scandalous tales about other members. The majority have been ready to resign for some time, and have an entirely new head, but it has been impossible to budge the minority. Governor McDonald was able to use some sort of hypnotic influence and finally secured the resignations. Since corporal punishment has been abolished, it is alleged, there has been lax discipline at the institution, as well as numerous escapes, and it is charged by the majority that the matron takes that way of demonstrating that the place cannot be properly conducted without plenty of whipping. The law requires that there be three women on the board, and how Governor McDonald will make it up is a problem. It has been suggested that he name a board which will agree to put the management of the school practically under the direction of Dr. Paddleford, the superintendent of the boys' school at Golden. Dr. Paddleford has made such a fine record in the work that a competent matron working under his supervision would, it is argued, make a success of the girls' institution. Fighting Moro Outlaw. Manila, May 16.—Fierce fighting has been going on the last two weeks on the island of Jolo between the outlaw Moro chief, Pala, with 600 well-armed followers, and troops under the personal command of Maj. Gen. Leonard Wood. Pala's losses thus far are 300 killed, while those of General Wood are seven killed and nineteen wounded. Pala and his remaining followers, in accordance with Moro tradition, prefer death to capture. General Wood, with detachments from the Fourteenth cavalry, the Seventeenth, Twenty-second, Twenty-third infantry, and constabulary scouts, had driven Pala and his followers into a swamp which has been surrounded. Pala was a noted slave trader and warrior when the Americans occupied the islands. Later he escaped with his followers to the island of Pula Sekar, near Borneo. One of Paya's leaders deserted and took refuge in the British settlement at Lahad. Pala, discovering his whereabouts, landed with a following and demanded of the British magistrate that he turn the deserter over to him. The demand was not compiled with and Pala ordered a massacre. Twenty-five persons, including several British, were killed. Pala escaped to the island of Joio and organized the present uprising. It is reported that the Borneo authorities requested General Wood to apprehend Pala, dead or alive, and turn him over to them. Drunken Man Runs Amuck San Diego, Cal., May 16.—Armed with rifle, revolver and dirk, each of which he used with deadly dexterity, a madman ran amuck in this city yesterday, killing two men, a boy and a woman, wounding two other persons, and finally blowing off the top of his own head and dying within a few minutes. Three of the victims lived in the same house with the slayer. The fourth person, whom he killed and the two who were wounded resided half a mile away, and it was in their house that the manlac took his own life. The man who enacted this ghastly tragedy was W. P. Robinson, about forty years of age, of powerful build and some education. The precise causes which led him to wholesale murder may never be ascertained. It is known, however, that he was a heavy drinker, that he was intensely interested in the Nihilist movement in Russia and that against two or three of his victims he fancied that he had some petty grievance. On the other hand, he is said to have been ordinarily a good-natured man and inclined to be generous—one of the last persons likely to take life. The general supposition is that drink and brooding over Nihilism brought on an attack of homicidal mania. Southern Baptists for Union. Kansas City, Mo., May 16.—One of the last acts of the fifteenth annual gathering of the Southern Baptist convention, which adjourned sine die last night, was the adoption of a resolution instructing its officers to represent it in the convention of Northern Baptists at St. Louis, "with a view of closer fellowship." The convention, which begins at St. Louis to-day, will be the first joint gathering of these two bodies, representing the Baptist churches of the North and South, ever held. It will, it is said, be the greatest gathering of Baptists that has ever met in this country. ROCKEFELLER'S MONEY ROCKEFELLER'S MONEY MISSION BOARD MAKES REPLY Answer to Letter of Protesting Ministers—Regret Harsh Tone of Criticisms—Do not Palliate Wrong. New Haven, Conn., May 17.—In a letter acknowledging the receipt from the committee of protesting ministers of documents bearing on the recent acceptance of the Rockefeller donation to the American Board of Commissioners of Foreign Missions, the pastors of Congregational churches in New Haven, with the exception of Rev. A. J. Haynes of the United Church, have jointly given expression to their views in the matter. The pastors in their letter say that while reluctant to express their views, some extraordinary statements of the protestants call for an answer. They deplore any unnecessary and harsh criticisms of missionary societies. The letter says: "We notice with regret the following words: 'The courts can be bought, the legislatures can be bought, the churches can be bought, but the American people cannot be bought.' Such unqualified words under other circumstances might be passed by without serious notice, but when addressed by a number of Congregational ministers to their brethren, they cannot be left unchallenged. This statement, so sweeping in its condemnation of legislatures, so calumnious of the judiciary, so unjust to our churches, we would repudiate as untrue in fact and socially destructive in its effect. "We desire also expressly to disavow the assumption that by the acceptance of such donations, or by the use of any man's gift of that which is lawfully his own, the trustees of a charity enter into 'an alliance' with him in his business, become 'yoke-felows' with him in wrong practices, or in any way compromise themselves with questionable methods of corporations. "We wish decisively to deny your assumptions that, while sustaining the actions of the American board, we are not free as we have always been in our pulpits to rebuke any wrongs that may be exposed in our economic system. "We in turn must protest when you insist that because of our customs or principles concerning charitable contributions, we are not in sympathy with the working people, and that our ministry has become the silenced witness of any threatening social injustice. You have no reasonable or moral right to so judge us." WORLD MAY COMPETE. Canal Commission Will Buy Ships in Open Market. Washington, May 17.—The executive committee of the Isthmian Canal Commission has decided to purchase in the markets of the world the material and ships necessary for the building of the Panama canal. This important decision was reached with some reluctance, because it was appreciated by Secretary Taft and the executive committee that there would surely be a great outcry from two great interests in this country, the producers of material and the ship owners, if the purchases were not limited to the American products. But it was decided that the money consideration was so great that it could not be ignored, for it was held that in some cases fully fifty per cent. more would be charged for material needed in canal construction than the same goods could be produced for in Europe. Chief Engineer Wallace, for instance, showed that two ships in addition to the ones running between New York and Colon and owned by the Panama railroad, were absolutely necessary to carry the food supply and material needed for the work. No American ship could be bought at any reasonable price, and when it came to building such ships it was found, according to Secretary Taft's statement, that while he can buy two 2,600-town ships in Europe for $750,000, it would cost $1,400,000 to build such ships here. And, in addition, while the European ship could be had at once, it would take at least eighteen months to secure American boats. As to material needed for canal construction, the committee decided that by reserving to itself the right to purchase in the world's markets, it would at least oblige American manufacturers to give them the benefit of their foreign prices if they wish to sell goods to the committee. Secretary Taft explained that he felt obliged to endorse this decision because, having given Congress every opportunity to give a contrary decision, he felt that the very terms of the canal act provided that it should be constructed at the lowest possible cost. Gas Near Fort Collins. Denver, May 17.—A Fort Collins dispatch says: Last Saturday well diggers engaged in digging a well for water for domestic uses on J. L. Rowe's farm, five miles northwest of Fort Collins, encountered a strong flow of natural gas at a depth of 160 feet. The well was piped and about twenty feet of the piping left sticking above the surface. A lighted match was applied to the gas and it flamed up two feet above the piping and burned all night, giving forth a splendid light visible for miles. The gas is still burning with the flame pouring out of the top of the piping. The well also has a strong smell of oil and experts are confident that the Poudre valley is on the eve of a big boom. The well was drilled by Nicol & Son of Greeley and the site is about five miles northwest of Fort Collins. Illinois Anti-Mob Law Springfield, Ill., May 17.—Governor Deneen last night signed forty bills. One of the most important was the anti-mob bill, introduced by Edward D. Green, colored member from Cook county. It provides for vacation by proclamation of the sheriff's office when that official allows a prisoner to be taken from him and lynched, and provides for a fine of $1,000 for participant in a lynching mob. MOTHERHOOD Actual Sterility in Women Is Very Rare—Healthy Mothers and Children Make Happy Homes. MRS. MAE P. WHARRY MRS. L. C. GLOVER Many Women Have Been Benefited by Mrs. Pinkham's Advice and Medicine. WOODWORTH-WALLACE COLLEGES SHORTHAND AND COMMERCIAL DENVER Send 4 Cents in Stamps for Aluminum Combined Comb and Paper Cutter to WOODWORTH-WALLACE COLLEGES, Denver. Many women long for a child to bless their homes, but because of some debility or displacement of the female organs they are barren. Preparation for healthy maternity is accomplished by Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound more successfully than by any other medicine, because it gives tone and strength to the entire female organism during all displacements, ulceration and inflammation. A woman who is in good physical condition transmits to her children the blessings of a good constitution. Is not that an incentive to prepare for a healthy maternity? If expectant mothers would fortify themselves with Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, which for thirty years has sustained thousands of women in this condition, there would be a great decrease in miscarriages, in suffering, and in disappointments at birth. The following letters to Mrs. Pinkham demonstrate the power of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound in such cases. Mrs. L. C. Glover, Vice-President of Milwaukee Business Woman's Association, of 614 Grove Street, Milwaukee, Wis., writes: Dear Mrs. Pinkham:— "I was married for several years and no children blessed our home. The doctor said I had a complication of female troubles and I could not have any children unless I could be cured.

To the housewife who has not yet become acquainted with the new things of everyday use in the market and who is reasonably satisfied with the old, we would suggest that a trial of Defiance Cold Water Starch be made at once. Not alone because it is guaranteed by the manufacturers to be superior to any other brand, but because each 10c package contains 16 ozs., while all the other kinds contain but 12 ozs. It is safe to say that the lady who once uses Defiance Starch will use no other. Quality and quantity must win. As the inventors of strenuous games it's queer the Romans overlooked football.

Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, this I did, and I improved steadily in health, and in less than two years a beautiful child came to bless our home. Now we have something to live for, and all the credit is due to Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound." Mrs. Mae P. Wharry, Secretary of the North Shore Oratorical Society, The Norman, Milwaukee, Wis., writes. Dear Mrs. Pinkham:— "I was married for five years and gave birth to two premature children. Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound was recommended to me, and I am so glad I took it, for it changed me from a weak, nervous woman to a strong, happy and healthy one within seven months. Within two years a lovely little child was born, which is the pride and joy of our household. Every day I miss Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound for the light, health and happiness it brought to our home." If any woman thinks she is sterile, or has doubts about her ability to carry a child to a mature birth let her write to Mrs. Pinkham, Lynn, Mass., whose advice is free to all expectant or would-be mothers. She has helped thousands of women through this anxious period. Women suffering with irregular or painful menstruation, leucorrhoea, displacement, ulceration or inflammation of the womb, that bearing down feeling or ovarian trouble, backache, bloating or nervous prostration, should remember that Lydia E. Pinkham's vegetable Compound holds the record for the greatest number of actual cures of woman's ills, and accept no substitute. Mrs. Pinkham's Advice and Medicine.

Why was Oyama placed at the head of them all?" Field Marshal Oyama is placed at the head of the Manchurian army of Nippon because—(1) there is no one who could more fittingly represent the supreme commander of the Nippon army and navy, His Majesty the Emperor, than does Marquis Oyama; (2) because he is the Abraham, the patriarch, among the soldiers of Nippon, and because he is the heroic tradition of the Satsuma samurai in a genial and living personality; (3) because to him all the chief commanders under him are as children of his own rearing; because to him are known all the strength and foibles of all his men; because among the living men fit to take the field there is none who can act as the master-prompter with quite as much grace, great good-hu How it feels to go down into the sea in a diving bell is described as follows by one who made the descent: "Putting on a pair of stockings, leggings and heavy boots, I jumped on to the seat when the huge bell—it weighed forty tons and was as large as a good sized room—was swung by the powerful crane over the staging, and gradually we were lowered into the sea. The sensation at first was very strange. As we entered the water, which was driven out of the bell by compressed air, there was a distinct buzzing round the ears and head. I was told to hold my nose and blow through it and I did so. Slowly we descended and at last reached the bottom, some fifty feet below the surface. The bell in question was seventeen feet long and ten feet wide. There were six of us in it. It was lighted by electricity and almost as bright as day. We first landed on a bed which the divers had previously leveled. The moment the bell touched the ground there was, perhaps, about two feet of water in it. This was quickly driven out by the compressed air, when we walked on comparatively dry ground with the sea all around us. "Idleness is the most natural state," is the dictum of Jefferson De Angelis, the comedian, at present starring in "Fantana." "Your ordinary, everyday man will tolerate nearly everything in preference to hard work. Want me to give you an instance? "Three years ago I was one of a little party that went into the Adirondacks on a hunting and fishing expedition. There were only four of us, so we did not consider it worth while to employ a cook, agreeing that each in turn should have charge of the culinary department. When it came to allotting terms of service, someone suggested that the first chef should do the work until a complaint was made about his cooking, when the maker of the complaint should succeed him. The next kicker was to take the place of the second, and so on. A young fellow named Jones was assigned to 'create the part' and began his duties the day that camp was pitched. "Jones was a nice young chap and a willing worker at first, but as time passed and no aspirant appeared to relieve him he grew weary of the task. The recent disbanding of a post of the Grand Army of the Republic at Gloucester, N.J., because of the dwindling away of its membership, has served as a vivid reminder to many an old veteran of the civil war that the time is not far distant when the great order must pass away. Unlike most organizations of its kind, the Grand Army of the Republic can not be recruited from the descendants of its original members or from any source save one which is constantly shrinking. None but soldiers, sailors and marines who fought in the civil war are eligible, and when all of this dwindling host, survivors of a conflict which ended forty years ago, shall have answered the last roll call no others can take their places. The Grand Army of the Republic was started in 1866, the first post being organized at Decatur, Ill., in April of that year by Major B. F. Stephenson and Capt. John S. Phillips, but its growth was not at first rapid. It was not until more than ten years later that Gen. Grant became a member, mor and intimate knowledge as does Oyama; because with the field marshal at the head of the Manchurian army the sad picture of the house divided against itself is an impossible spectacle; (4) because of the commander of the Nippon army in this war is expected a great thing—nothing less than the salvation of Nippon and the ultimate and permanent peace of the far East—and it was necessary that he be a man of broad horizon, a man who understands nice distinctions in the proportion of things, a man with a gift of modifying the suggestions of his officers to advantage without rejecting them outright; (5) because the field marshal is a singular man in that his calmness and temper seems to increase with the increase of difficulties and the sunshine of his good humor to brighten as the storm of reverses frowns more darkly all about him.—From "Oyama, the Victor of Mukden," by Adachi Kinnosuke, in the American Monthly Review of Reviews. "By sending signals up to the man in charge of the great crane to which the bell is attached, the apparatus can be moved as its occupants wish. After inspecting the smooth bed on which the bottom blocks are laid, we went out to sea, and, landing on the bottom again, obtained some idea of the difficulties of digging a foundation on the floor of the ocean. It was ragged and rocky. Four men work in a bell under a pressure of 27 pounds to the square inch for three hours at a time, digging up the ground until it is perfectly smooth and level. The material is thrown into a large wooden box, swung in the center of the bell. "Climbing to our seats again, the man gave the necessary signals and away we went, all under water, of course, until we landed once more upon the stones just placed in position. The electric lights in the bell are placed closed to the thick little glass windows. When we stayed on the bottom quietly for a little while the fish darted at the light, but at the noise of a shovel they quickly disappeared." H friends were having the time of their lives, while he was unable to get far away from pots and pans and smoky wood fires. Again and again he made deliberate attempts at spoiling the dinner, hoping that someone would complain, but the boys were quite satisfied to pay the penalty of eating bad food in return for exemption from preparing it. "At last, determined to be free, Jones mixed biscuits one afternoon and when they were ready to bake poured a pound of salt into the dough. The fellows got back to camp in due season and as they squatted around the fire one of them took a biscuit and bit a large piece out of it. The salt in it nearly choked him. He gagged and turned red in the face. As soon as he had regained his breath, he exclaimed: 'Gee whiz, that biscuit is salty!' Then, remembering that this statement, identified as a complaint, would make him the cook of the party, he added, hastily: 'But it's good! It's good! It's good!' He ate every scrap of the food and we other two martyrs followed suit." being mustered into George G. Meade post, No. 1, of Philadelphia, by Post Commander George W. Divinny. The maximum membership was reached in 1890, when it was 409,489. For the last fifteen years it has been steadily decreasing; not only this, but the rate of decrease has steadily grown. The annual death rate among members of the order in 1886 was ninety-three in every 10,000. To-day, having gone up steadily through the intervening years, it is 352 in every 10,000. In 1894 the membership of the national body had fallen to 369,083, a loss since the period of maximum membership of about 10,000 a year. In 1894, according to the last annual report made at the encampment in Boston last year, the membership was 246,261, showing a loss since 1894 of more than 12,000 a year. The separate posts now number 6,149. Employed in the various-government departments in Washington at the time of the last annual report were 2,175 members of the order, of whom 226 are over 70 years of age, 787 between 65 and 70 years and 1,338 between 58 and 65 years.

New York, May 18.—It was under gray skies and in the ehiii of an edst wind, thick with mist, that ine eleven yachts entered for the Kaiser's cup, started on their 3,000-mile race across the Atlantic yesterday. A wind blowing straight from the di- rection in which the regatta was to £0, and a lop of sea, which was too little to interfere with even the smallest of the entries, made it distinetly fore and aft weather, and as a result there were five of this rig to seni their bowsprits spearing across the Ine before the smoke of the starting gun had wholly disappeared. ‘The yawl Ailsa and the schooner Hildegarde were so close tozether at the time of crossing that there was a difference of opinion as to which had the lead. ‘The long black hull of the superb At- lantic, backed by many to win in this race to the Lizard from Sandy Hook, was two seconds behind the smaller and more nible leaders, Close to the clean-cut heels of the Atlantic the knifelike bows of the Hamburg, Germany's champion in the event, came splitting through the seas, and a short length astern of her the record-breaking Endymion came sheer- ing as if she were bent on achieving another record. ‘Then followed the Thistle, which be- haved very badly. Astern of this came the Fleur-de-Lis and behind the valiant little schooner, smallest of the lost, was Lord Brassey's barkentine-rigged yacht, the Sunbeam, known in all the waters of the world, and known in this race as a vessel the owner of which says has no chance of winning; but whether she wins the race or not, she won much applause by the way in which she begun it. The Apache was next, twenty-one ‘minutes behind. After her came the ‘Utowana, and lastly the Valhalla. Such was the order in which they went over the line, a full-three-quarters of an hour between leaders and laggards = Between the Ailsa and the Hilde- garde, which led the van, and the big ‘Valhalla, which brought up the rear. Strung out over a space three of four tee in length, the relative positions of the yachts were not conspicuously altered during the ensuing hour, when the press boat kept them company. HE i Ph.

Denver, . °°: - - - Colorado, Laws Should Be Obeyed St. Louis, May 18.—Governor Folk of Missouri, addressing the general Bap: Ust convention, said: “Missouri has an idea that means the enforcement of laws. Laws that are not enforced add just so much to the support of good government as sores do to the strength of the human body. Law breaking has become alarmingly common, t is one of the greatest dangers that confronts free government, for when all laws are ig- nored there can be no such thing as free government, “Many men obey the laws they like, but think they have a political Iberty to disobey the laws that are obnoxious tothem. The trust magnate looks with abhorrence on the pickpocket who ¥io- lates the larceny stainte but considers it entirely right to break the laws against combinations and monopolies. ‘The boodler detests the law breaking of the trusts but considers the law against bribery as an infringement on his personal liberty. The dram shop keeper regards the law against murder as good, but the law against operating his dram shop on Sunday is, in his opinion, puritanical and tyrannical. If each citizen were allowed to de- termine for himself which laws he con- sidered bad, the result would be an- archy—we would have no laws at all. ‘The only safe rule is that of the law cn the’statute books must be observed. ‘There has been to much of making Jaws to please the moral element and ‘then not enforcing them to please the {immoral element.” THE GALLUP FLORAL zi AND oy Be &> yy Se F SED COMPAR, aio a Saas Lawn Fertilizer | oe Peat Phone 543. re ‘ Reis) Ps Corner 15th and Be : Lg ; Cleveland Place. } ny Was See DENVER, - ~ COLO. , " re CONDENSED TELEGRAMS for a big department store. _ Secretary Taft has postponed until November 1st next the date for the opening of the bids for the construc: tion of railroads in the Philippines. ‘The Japanese steamer Kilo, of 1,178 tons capacity, struck a mine and sank off Port Arthur on the night of May llth, “The crew was rescued and taken to Osaka.

Estimate of the Wealth of American Multi-Millionaires. Henry Clews has made an estimate of the wealth of a number of millionaire capitalists of the United States, in which he places John D. Rockefeller first and Andrew Carnegie second. This is the table he has formulated: John D. Rockefeller; $500,000,000; Andrew Carnegie, $115,000,000 given away, leaving $250,000,000; William Waldorf Astor, chiefly in real estate, $200,000,000; John Jacob Astor, $175, 000,000; Gould family, of which George Gould's personal fortune represents $35,000,000; $150,000,000; Marshall Field, $100,000,000; Blair estate, $100, 000,000; W. K. Vanderbilt, $80,000,000; Russell Sage, $80,000,000; D. O. Mills, $75,000,000; William Rockefeller, $75, 000,000; J. Pierpont Morgan, $60,000, 000; James J. Hill, $60,000,000; Henry H. Rogers, $60,000,000; Henry Phipps, $45,000,000; John D. Archibald, $40, 000,000; Henry M. Flagler, $40,000,000; James B. Haggin, $40,000,000; James Henry Smith, $35,000,000; W. H. Til- ford, $20,000,000; James Stillman, $15, 000,000; George F. Baker, $15,000,000. Mr. Clews admits that his list is by no means complete, but says that it undoubtedly contains the names of the very richest men in the country. Prominent among the well known capitalists who are not included are the members of the so-called Rock Island "crowd"—William H. and J. H. Moore and D. G. Reid and W. B. Leeds—nor does the name of Senator W. A. Clark, Henry C. Frick, John W. Gates, Norman B. Ream, the William C. Whitney estate, P. A. B. Wildener, the younger Vanderbilts, Mrs. Hettle Green, nor any of the other notably rich women of the country. With plans for new building valued at more than $2,000,000 filed April 26th, all records of the kind for New York City were broken except in a few instances, when plans for a great hotel or office building were recorded. Of the sum mentioned the most expensive building reaches the figure of only $300,000, and the plans include twenty-two six-story brick apartment houses and tenements. So far this year plans have been recorded in Manhattan alone for 645 buildings, valued at $33,732,732. A year ago at the corresponding time plans had been filed for only 343 buildings, valued at $18,677,010.

Pierce, the founder of the Invalids' Hotel and Surgical Institute, and a physician of large experience and practice, was the first to make up an alternative extract of roots, herbs and barks, WITHOUT A PARTICLE OF ALCOHOL OR NARRHS which purifies the blood and tones in the skin and the ointment system in Nature's own way. The "Golden Medical Discovery" is just the tissue builder and tonic you require when recovering from a hard cold, grip, or pneumonia. No matter how strong the constitution the stomach is apt to be "out of killer" after a long, hard winter; in consequence the blood is weakened. The stomach is the laboratory for the cure of the disease. Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery strengthens the stomach—puts it in shape to make pure, rich blood—helps the liver and kidneys to expel the poisons from the body. If you take this NATURAL BLOOD PURIFIER AND TONIC you will assist your system in manufacturing the blood, that is stimulating to the brain and nerves. The weak, nervous, debilitated condition which so many people experience at this time of the year is usually the effect of poisons in the blood; it is often indicated by pimples or boils appearing on the skin, the face becomes thin—you feel "blue". Dr. Pierce's golden medical discovery cures all blood humors as well as other ointments that make one vigorous, strong forceful. Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery STANDS ALONE as the one medicine for stomach, liver and blood disorders that has the ingredients printed upon the wrapper of every bottle leaving the great laboratory at Buffalo, N. Y., not only does it stand alone, but respect to its ingredients but also as the spring tonic and reconstructive which absolutely contains no alcohol. "I was taken with a severe cough, weakness in my back, a glimmer' over the eyes, a rash on my arm, was out of order," writes H. Gaddis, of 143 South Avenue, Tacoma, Wash. "I felt sluggish, did not care for anything, had no life, it was all over me, and went right away and purchased Adviser and went right away and purchased Medical Discovery,' and before I had taken it, I felt better. If any doubt the truth of this testimonial they may write to me." Dr. Pierce's Pellets Cure Constipation. HAVE YOU COWS? HAVE YOU COWS?

Bowman, 1st Lieut. and Adjut. 4th M. S. M. Cav. Vols., writes from Lanham, Md., as follows: "Though somewhat averse to patent medicines, and still more averse to becoming a professional affidavit man, it seems only a plain duty in the present instance to add my experience to the columns already written concerning the curative powers of Peruna. "I have been particularly benefited by its use for colds in the head and throat. I have been able to fully cure myself of a most severe attack in forty-eight hours by its use according to directions. I use it as a preventive whenever threatened with an attack. "Members of my family also use it for like ailments. We are recommending it to our friends."—C. W. Bowman. 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. It can be used any length of time without acquiring a drug habit.

LAKE GEORGE CUT-OFF LAKE GEORGE CUT-OFF DENVER & CRIPPLE CREEK LINE New Route Planned by Colorado & Southern—From Platte Canon to Great Gold Camp. Denver, May 15.—The News this morning says: Cripple Creek is to be within two hours of Denver, instead of five, as at present, the distance to be reduced from 131 miles to less than ninety. This is what the Lake George cutoff of the Colorado & Southern will do toward bringing the principal points of Colorado closer together. Four years ago the proposed cutoff was surveyed, and it was the intention to build it then. The change in the ownership of a number of the Colorado railroads changed this, however, and the plan was practically given up, although it was realized that it would be of untold benefit not only to the great gold camp, but to Denver as well. Now that the Colorado & Southern has perfected all of its plans for becoming a great continental system, this cut in both the running distance and the time will be put into effect as soon as the new road can be built. The cutoff will probably begin at Dome Rock, on the Leadville branch of the Colorado & Southern. Dome Rock is thirty-two miles from Denver, and from there a cutoff of forty-two miles will be run straight across the country, meeting the Colorado Midland road at Lake George. From there it is about ten miles into Cripple Creek. This is not the only extension planned by the Colorado & Southern. As foretold in the News, the intention is to make it a transcontinental line, reaching from the Atlantic to the Pacific. It is to carry out these plans and to look the ground over that President B. L. Winchell of the Rock Island, who is also interested in the Colorado & Southern, will arrive in Denver to-day or to-morrow with a party of railroad men. In the party is W. H. Moore of Moore Bros., who control the Rock Island; D. G. Reid, chairman of the executive board; Second Vice President Mudge and Third Vice President Biddle. Funeral of a Striker. Chicago, May 15—Marching with draped banners and muffled drums more than 2,000 union men followed the remains of strike victim George S. Vierce from his late home to the union station here yesterday. No funeral services were held here, but the escorting of the body to the station was made the occasion of a labor demonstration in which not only the teamsters' union, but organized labor generally, participated. The progress of the cortexe was without incident. The men marched solemnly four abreast. Each wore upon his coat lapel a white button with the inscription in black: "We mourn the loss of a murdered brother." Pierce was an employee of Rothschild & Co., as driver of a delivery wagon. He was shot by Special Deputy Sheriff F. T. Waldorf. He is the only union man who has lost his life during the strike and is regarded by other men as a martyr to the cause. Pierce is said to have assaulted a non-union driver in the presence of Waldorf. Waldorf was exonerated by a coroner's jury. Colorado Building at Portland. Denver, May 14.—A telegram was received by the members of the Portland fair commission yesterday from I. D. Lewis, architect in charge of the buildings at the fair, stating that work had started on Colorado's building. He promises to have it completed in two weeks which will be in time for the opening. The building is to cost $1,800 and can be erected quickly. The climate is mild and the building only needs to be a shell that will keep off the rain. Agriculture and horticulture are to be exhibited there. The mineral exhibits will be placed in the mines building, as the commission expects to take prizes with that exhibit. In the Colorado building will be pleasant quarters for Colorado people to stop, rest and register. It will also be headquarters for advertising the state in such a manner as the various publicity organizations may deem best. Fort Collins Canning Factory. Denver, May 14.—A Fort Collins dispatch says: A canning factory for Fort Collins, to be in readiness for the present season's surplus fruit and vegetables grown in the Cache La Poudre valley, is assured. The chamber of commerce committee on commerce and manufactures has been in conference with John Lamont, a practical canner of many years' experience, with reference to the erection of a canning factory in Fort Collins, and has accepted his proposal to erect a factory with a capacity of 12,000 cans a day. Mr. Lamont comes from La Junta, where he has been operating a canning factory for several years. Quiet at St. Petersburg. St. Petersburg, May 15, 12:30 a.m. m.—The widely-heralded May day demonstrations in St. Petersburg were a complete flasco, and reports from Moscow and the provinces indicate that order reigned on Sunday generally throughout the entire extent of Russia. Minor disorders are reported at Reval, Kishlineff and one or two other places, but up to midnight no reports of serious tumults or loss of life have been received and the attempt of the social democrats and social revolutionists to signalize May day by great anti-government demonstrations appears to have been a thorough failure. Hired Slugger Confesses. Chicago, May 15.—Nothing since the teamsters' strike began has so inflamed public opinion against slugging, rioting and terrorizing during labor disturbances as the confession yesterday of Charles J. Casey, business agent of Carriage and Wagons Makers' Union No. 4, that he and his associates in the union paid $15 to professional sluggers for the assault which resulted in the death of Charles J. Myers April 13th WEATHER FORECASTS WEATHER FORECASTS LONG RANGE PREDICTIONS IDLE No Legitimate Basis for Estimates Based on the Moon's Phases or Position of the Planets. The chief of the Weather Bureau has recently placed before the public a pamphlet entitled Long Range Weather Forecasts, by Prof. E. B. Garriott, that is full of interesting things to one who is a seeker after the truth regarding these delusions. A great many things in it are worthy of further publication but we wish, at this time, simply to give its conclusions: 1. That systems of long range weather forecasting that depend upon planetary meteorology; moon phases, cycles, positions, or movements; stellar influences, or star divinations; indications afforded by observations of animals, birds, and plants, and estimates based upon days, months, seasons, and years have no legitimate basis. 2. That meteorologists have made exhaustive examinations and comparisons for the purpose of associating the weather with the various phases and positions of the moon in an earnest endeavor to make advances in the science along the line of practical forecasting, and have found that while the moon, and perhaps the planets, exert some influence upon atmospheric tides, the influence is too slight and obscure to justify a consideration of lunar and planetary effects in the actual work of weather forecasting. 3. That the stars have no appreciable influence upon the weather. 4. That animals, birds, and plants show by their condition the character of past weather, and by their actions the influence of present weather and the character of weather changes that may occur within a few hours. 5. That the weather of days, months, seasons, and years affords no indications of future weather further than showing present abnormal conditions that the future may adjust. 6. That six and seven-day weather periods are too ill-defined and irregular to be applicable to the actual work of forecasting. 7. That advances in the period and accuracy of weather forecasts depend upon a more exact study and understanding of atmospheric pressure over great areas and a determination of the influences, probably solar, that are responsible for normal and abnormal distributions of atmospheric pressure over the earth's surface. 8. That meteorologists are not antagonistic to honest, well directed efforts to solve the problem of longrange forecasting; that, on the contrary, they encourage all work in this field and condemn only those who, for notoriety or profit or through misdirected zeal and unwarranted assumptions, bring the science of meteorology into disrepute. 9. That meteorologists appreciate the importance to the world at large of advances in the period of forecasting and are inclined to believe that the twentieth century will mark the beginning of another period in meteorological science. Very Moderate Wages. An advertiser in the Wimbledon (Eng.) Gazette wants "a lad about twenty; must be a churchman, of good education, who can drive a horse and cart, assist in the stable and garden (melons and cucumbers), milk cows and understands pigs; must be accustomed to wait at table and of gentlemanly appearance; early riser and teetotaler; good references required." The wage of this person is to be $50 a year, but he must lodge out and furnish his own meals, except dinner. Opening of the Uintah Indian Reservation. The Uintah Indian Reservation in Utah, containing 2,425,000 acres of arable land, to be opened up for settlement on September 1, 1905, is described in a pamphlet just issued by the passenger department of the Denver & Rio Grande Railroad company. A valuable map, showing the country to be opened up and the various routes by which it can be reached, is published for the first time in this pamphlet, which may be obtained by addressing General Passenger Agent S. K. Hooper at Denver. The biscuits mother used to make. Their virtues, we can never doubt them; And yet we can't forget the things That father used to say about them. Every housekeeper 'should know that if they will buy Defiance Cold Water Starch for laundry use they will save not only time, because it never sticks to the iron, but because each package contains 16 oz.—one full pound—while all other Cold Water Starches are put up in %-pound packages, and the price is the same, 10 cents. 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 ozs." Demand Defiance and save much time and money and the annoyance of the iron sticking. Defiance never sticks. The Extreme Penalty. Justice David J. Brewer made an address not long ago at Haverford. After the address there was an informal little reception, and very interesting it was to hear the justice talk. A Haverford boy said to the learned man during the lull in conversation: "Will you please tell me, sir, what is the extreme penalty for bigamy?" Justice Brewer smiled and answered: "Two mothers-in-law." If you would make your money last you must earn it first. "He who takes wot isn't his'n.

English Motor Vehicles. Motor vehicles for carrying or hauling heavy loads are now so much used in England that their operation is closely guarded by government supervision. United States Consul Mahin at Nottingham has made a report on the subject. "Hitherto," says he, "the legal weight limit of an empty motor car has been three tons. Now it is raised to five, with an increase in the legal joint weight (unladen) of a motor car and trailer from four to six tons. Heretofore there has been no legal weight limit to the load on a motor car, but the new regulations aim to prevent excessive loading. The total weight of car and load is limited to twelve tons. The weight borne on any axle shall not exceed eight tons." The Homeless of London. A census of the homeless of London, made on a recent night, revealed a total of 2,481 in the streets, on staircases and under arches. Of these, 2,169 were men and 312 women. In the common lodging houses and shelters that night there were 26,690 persons, of whom 21,254 were single men, 1,688 single women, 357 married couples and thirty-four children under ten years of age. Were Good for Both. Paulding, Miss., May 15th.—(Special)—In this neighborhood men and women alike are telling of the great benefit they have received from the use of Dodd's Kidney Pills and it frequently happens they are the means of curing members of both sexes in the same family. Take the case of Mr. and Mrs. F. Erby. The latter voices the sentiment of both when she says: "My lips cannot express too much praise for Dodd's Kidney Pills. I suffered with Backache and Female weakness for four or five years and I feel that I have been wonderfully helped by Dodd's Kidney Pills. My husband, too, was a sufferer for five years from a weak bladder and they also cured him." Dodd's Kidney Pills make healthy kidneys. Healthy kidneys mean pure blood and good health all over the body. No woman with healthy kidneys ever had female weakness.

FOIBLES OF FASHION A style of bodice becoming to large women is that made with jacket fronts, not the loose, hanging bolero fronts, but a trim, tight fitting affair, single or double breasted, or fastened at the left side. The jacket comes below the waist line in front, and it has a small, shaped basque back an inner vest with overlapping revers shows between, or above and below the overlapping jacket fronts. One point that every woman at all inclined to stoutness should remember is to keep the line of her waist long by cutting all her clothes with straight seam and dart lines, and placing the waist line half an inch below where she actually feels the line to exist. A garment cut an inch too long waisted looks infinitely better than one a quarter of an inch too short waisted; especially is this to be noticed in the plain tailor coat made with single fly fronts. When the coat hangs open it rises up in the back when not long enough in the waist, and it gives a most awkward appearance to a woman. Smart Shirt Waist Costume. 1 The shirt waist costume has to some extent superseded the taller suit for general wear. The accompanying illustration shows a natty box-plaited waist, combined with a side-plaited skirt in round length. Serge, cheviot, or shepherd plaid among the wool materials are exceedingly good for a frock destined to be worn in cold weather, and any of the inexpensive mercerized cottons, which so strongly resemble silk, are suggested for the summer months. Ribbon Flowers. The newest table decorations are made of ribbon, which many clever hostesses fashion for themselves. Debutante luncheons afford excellent opportunities for the display of ribbon flowers, the centerpiece and rose favors being manipulated out of soft louisine curled in such a manner that it exactly duplicates a la France rose. Artificial leaves are used and the rose stems are wound with green velvet ribbon. Bunches of violets are easily conjured into shape with narrow violet ribbon and when combined with natural leaves the effect is exceedingly good. In making these blossoms care must be taken that only soft ribbon be used, as stiff satin would be anything but pretty for such a purpose. Dressy Effects In thin narrow fabrics the circular top is preferred to a skirt and the rest is all ruffles. One circular ruffle may be used as a foundation, begin below hips, and the trimming put on this. Princess gowns are appearing in the thinnest of fine muslins, and handkerchief linen and linen batiste. They are thickened to fit into the waist line and are elaborately trimmed with fine lace and slight designs of hand embroidery. Many women whose figures can stand this severity are making up such gowns decollete with sleeves ending well above elbow for summer evening wear. They are put over slips of colored batiste at fifty cents a yard. These slips are also princess, fitted into the waist a beading of narrow ribbon which is tied in a flat bow in the back and they are ruffled at the foot line. The passion for hand embroidery has grown stronger each week. Whoever can do it, is putting it on every possible garment. Scheme In Hat Trimming. Marvelous shaded effects are secured by employing different tints of the same flowers in hats. A toque particularly becoming to a fair-haired girl who dresses her hair in rather fluffy fashion is built entirely from hyacinths. The foundation is pale lavender maline. Brim and crown are overlaid with hyacinths shading from palest to deepest lavender. On the brim the white starts next to the hair, and the edge is the deep shade. On THE FASHION OF THE TWENTIETH CENTURY the crown the white is in the center and the flowers deepen as the size of the circles increase. On either side of the hat, close to the hair and extending well up above the brim, are flat rosettes of soft ribbon in the three tints shown in the flowers, and in the hearts of each rosette are two delicate blush roses with pastel green foliage. Boudoir Confidences Hats are queer. Everything is flowered. Frocks are overtrimmed. Green is exceptionally good. Tulips blosson on some hats. You can't have too many organdies. Both narrow and wide belts are worn. The black patent leather sailor is nobly. You cannot have too much lace about you. Some parasols look as if the sun would melt them. Net insertions make a silk blouse look wonderfully smart. Very taking is the new envelope handbag in scarlet or green. Buy a stamped hat pattern and embroider your own hat. Filmy Laces. An effort that assuredly means business this season runs in favor of filmy laces, headed by the ephemeral blonde. The fresh varieties are exceptionally numerous and at present appear to be collectively gathered together under the safe and vaguely embracing term of French. Towards the fashioning of Jabots together with the prevailing ruffled and wrinkled effects, there is no question as to the superior services of this finer dentelle, and under its auspices one is the more inclined to overlook certain extravagances of pattern. Nor will the furore for the firmer and more costly varieties of embroidered lawns, as a decorative accessory, be any less pronounced than last season. Skirts Little Changed. It is a comfort to many that with all the changes going on in styles, skirts remain almost the same. The six-gored circular cut is introduced and is exceedingly artistic, but most difficult for any but the high-fashion experts to make. Thirteen gores put into a broad box plait back and front, with side plaits between, meeting at the hips with an inverted box plait, is very popular and stylish. For everyday washub gowns the new five-gored pattern is the best to follow. It is slightly gathered at sides and back and is trimmed with the old-fashioned deep Spanish flounce, quite straight, but not too full. This has tucks and a hem at the foot line. It is mounted with a gathered heading or with a two-inch band of embroidery or heavy lace. Stitched bands of the material are not among the new fashions for skirt trimmings.

Lunch cloths for bunsalow or country home fitted up with rustic or mission furnishings, are made of coarse linen in gray or tan shades, with borders in some gay, contrasting tone. When a broom becomes shorter on one side and the ends of the straws become as sharp as needles dip it into hot water, trim it evenly with the shears and you will have a broom nearly as good as new. Veal Cutlets with Tomatoes. Wash two cutlets and season them with pepper and salt. Have ready some hot lard and butter in a pan; put the meat into it, and fry it on both sides until a nice brown; when done place on a hot platter. Stew a quarter of a peck of tomatoes, or if these are not in season, a can will do as well. If fresh they must be drained and mashed. Season with pepper and salt, pour the tomatoes in a pan with the gravy, after the cutlets have been dished, and stir them well together. Pour them over the cutlets and send to table hot. Blouse of Silk or Volta. 1 Blouse of plain light silk or volle, with fronts slightly draped and crossed and bordered with silk braid. The plaited chemisette is of white muslin, the plait trimmed with lace and braid and bordered with narrow ruffles of the muslin. The collar is trimmed with lace. The full sleeves are shirred at the top and finished at the elbows with cuffs trimmed with the braid and frills of muslin. New Ruffle Trick. A new ruffle trick seems to have accomplished the apparently impossible task of getting still more fullness into the skirt about the feet. The ruffle is of embroidery, shaped and gathered into half circles, which join at the tips. Under this ruffle is another, with all the material pleated into it that could possibly be disposed of. The pleating only shows in between the sections of the ruffle in the airiest way imaginable. A Safe Method. There is no prettier nor safer method for carrying a watch than when it is securely set into a bracelet, which is usually made of bars of gold or silver, interlaced diagonally, as are the iron bars of a street-car gate. These bars can be opened wide or closed tightly so as to fit snugly about any wrist. Another way for carrying a watch is to have it set in a leather bracelet which buckles around the wrist.

Foot Protection Believed Old as the Human Race. What is regarded as the earliest reference to shoes is found in the old testament, where Abraham refuses to take as much as a shoe latenot from the king of Sodom. Among the Jews the shoe played an important part in many social usages. When buying or selling land it was customary to deliver a shoe and the act of throwing down a shoe on territory implied occupancy. The finding of sandals on Egyptian mummies proves that the wearing of shoes is almost as old as the race itself. In Venice in the seventeenth century every lady of any pretension to fashion or position wore what were called "choppines," high clogs or pattens, to elevate them from the ground. Thomas Coryat, a traveler who visited Venice in 1671, says of them: "They are so common in Venice that no woman goeth without either in her house or abroad. It is a thing made of wood and covered with leather in sundry colors, some white, some red, some yellow. Many of them are curiously painted; some, also, of them have I seen fairly gilt. There are many of these chapineys of a great height—even half a yard high; and by how much the nobler a woman is, by so much the higher are her chapineys. All their gentlewomen, and most of their wives and widows that are of any wealth, are assisted or supported either by men or women when they walk abroad, to the end that they may not fall." WORK FOR POSTAL CLERKS. Persians Use Flowery Language in Addressing Letters. The addresses in Persian upon letters which go through the postoffice at Calcutta are often quaint and puzzling. An Indian paper recently translated one as follows: "If the Almighty pleases—Let this envelope, having arrived at the city of Calcutta, in the neighborhood of Calootolah, at the counting-house of Sirajoodeen and Ilahad, merchants, to be offered to and read by the happy light of my eyes, of virtuous manners and beloved of the heart—Meean Shaikh Inayut Ally, may his life be long. Written on the tenth of the blessed Rumzan, Saturday, in the year 1266 of the Hegira of our Prephet, and dispatched at Bearing." The Wooded Path. So long a winter, such an arctic night Made us forget that ever spring was bright. But hark; the blackbird's voice, like a vireo flame! So long the winter! Such an age of chill Made me forget this silver-birch-clad hill; But see, the golden lambstails put to shame That day of winter's; bracken-fronds like flame Tint this now morning's dimmed, tender light. So long so long the winter in our hearts We had forgotten that dead grief day parts. And had forgotten that our hand could meet So long long' Remember our last May When there was sunlight still and every day New swallows skimmed low down along the street. -Ay! Spring shall come; but shall we ever meet With the old hearts in this forgotten way? —Ford Madox Hueffer. John Is Wily. People very often marvel at the cheapness of the engraved or etched pearl shells which come from China. They sell for little or nothing, and the uninitiated will be apt to wonder how it is the work can be done so cheaply. The reason is that, instead of graving the picture into the hard shell, an operation which would be laborious and slow. John Chinaman draws the sketch on a little scrap of tea lead, and inserts it into a pearl oyster shell when it is tender. The inside of the shell in this manner gets an impression of the sketch from the tea lead picture, and as soon as it is sufficiently well printed John takes the lead out and inserts it in another shell. Horses Trained to Kneel. In ancient times, before the invention of stirrups and luxurious saddles, horses were taught to kneel to permit their riders to mount. A beautiful Greek vase in one of the museums in St. Petersburg shows a war horse of many centuries ago kneeling low before an Amazon. The riders in those days mounted from the "off" side, in contradiction to the modern usage. Plutarch tells how in the first century of this era certain effeminate Roman riders found even the horse block of too little assistance and had their horses trained to kneei to them. A Pardonable Error. In the first edition of St. Matthew in Miemac, for the Indians of Nova Scotia, the translator found, when he came to revise it, that in chapter xxiv., 7, instead of "Nation shall rise against nation," he had written "A pair of snowshoes shall rise up against a pair of snowshoes." But there was only one letter misprinted—naookukumiksijik (a nation), having been displaced by naookaktumiksijik (a snowshoe). Following the Rules. The New York Sun tells of a new application of the rules of bridge whist. Three women in a bridge party were tired by the complainings of the fourth at the delinquencies her husband. "My dear," exclaimed one of the other women, "if he is as bad as all that why don't you leave him? "Because," replied the victim of the "brute" spitefully. "Elwell says that when you have a knave and two little ones you never should discard 'he knave.'
