Hatred Against Negroes
Hatred Against Negroes
By Poor Whites Comes Purely From Envy---The Race Question and the "Jim Crow" Car Law.

significant to the thinking Negro. The Nashville papers are saying that the Negroes in Knoxville and other cities are riding, which is not a fact, and the Knoxville papers are saying that the Negroes in Nashville are riding which is not true. Some of the Negroes in all of the cities are riding, but they express themselves as feeling very much humiliated by having to ride, but ride because of the distances which they must travel to get to their work, etc. There is no good reason why such a law should be passed. There is no desire on the part of the Negro to be with the the white people any more than there is on the part of the whites to be with the Negro; but what the Negroes object to is the curtailing of their privileges, wicked proscriptions and saucy conductors. Let them give the Negroes a car and keep all the white people off of it, then the races will be separated. As the cars are being operated now, the white people are riding all over them from one end to the other, but the Negro must be crammed in a little corner in the rear end, half a dozen on one seat and pay the same fare, this he will never submit to.—Sunday School Monitor.
Negroes Make Bold Hold-up.
Des Moines, Ia., August 4.—Over $900 was the haul made by two Negroes who entered a business office in the heart of the downtown district during broad daylight yesterday afternoon and perpetrated the boldest robbery committed in years in this city, leaving S. T. Roberts, their victim, insensible on the floor, and making their escape before the affair was discovered.
The amount secured consisted of $415 in cash and two checks aggregating over $500, which Mr. Roberts was preparing to take to the bank. The holdup occurred in the office of the Des Moines Building company at 820 Locust street, in which Mr. Roberts was alone at the time. The office is in a one story brick building just east of Ninth street on the south side side of Locust, immediately in the rear of the saloon on the southeast corner.
Mr. Roberts had been footing up his account preparatory to going to the bank and had placed the two checks, $390 in currency and $25 in gold, in his bank book, which he had placed in his pocket,

and was just starting to leave the office when the two Negroes suddenly entered the door and walked to the back of the room where he was standing. The men had evidently been watching him through the window and had seen him place the money in his pockets. The Negroes entered, demanded the money, proceeded to take it, and then, with a blow, rendered Mr. Roberts insensible. They have disappeared. There is no clue.
Fort Scott News.
Raleigh Kinnell who has been quite sick for the past week is much improved.
A large number of our citizens spent Sunday in Columbus in attendance of a big camp meeting which had been in progress for a week.
Fort Scott was thronged with several hundred visitors Friday, August 4th, who came here to help celebrate the Emancipation Proclamation.
The funeral of Benjamin Parks was held Tuesday afternoon, Aug. 1st from the A. M. E. church under the auspices of the Masons. Rev. W. P. Green officiated.
H. Kinnell and daughters, the Misses Ida and Viola, have returned from Emporia, where they went as delegates to the Grand Lodge of the Grand United Order of Odd Fellows.
The Grand United Order of Odd Fellows held its annual session in Emporia last week and besides the hundred or more delegates there were many visitors present. The Odd Fellows and citizens of Emporia are deserving of much praise for the manner in which they so royally entertained the visitors.
At Emporia, Kansas, Tuesday night August 1st, J. F. Beady of Kansas City, Kansas, was stricken with paralysis. Just as he had finished addressing a meeting of the Grand Lodge of Odd Fellows he fell prestrated in his chair. He was removed to the residence of R. Moore, where he lay unconscious until the next morning.
Newspaper Dictionary.
Somebody was asked to explain what the editorial "we" signifies, said its meaning varies to suit the circumstances. For instance when you read that "we expect our wife home today" we refer to the editor in chief, when its "we are late with our work," it includes the whole office force, even the devil and towel. "If we are hav-
ing a boom" the whole town is meant; "we received our 70,000 emigrants this year," embraces the nation, but "we have hog cholera in our midst," only refers to the illness of the man who takes the paper two or three years without paying for it and then attempts to stop his subscription.—Ex.
RACE NEWS
Gathered from Various Sources.
Jacksonville, Fla., July 25. The Avery law for the separation of the races was declared unconstitutional to-day, in the decision of a case prosecuted by Attorney J. Douglas Wetmore.
Memphis, Tenn., July 30. The Negroes of Memphis, at a meeting held to-day, raised a fund of $5000 with which to fight the "Jim Crow" law. Few Negroes are riding on the street cars and they say they will fight the case through the Supreme Court.
Sometime ago a committee was appointed to select the best eighty-five books published last year for the New York State Library. At the head of the books selected on Sociology, including Education, was "Working with the Hands," by Booker I. Washington.
L. Montino, a white shoemaker at Hallettsville, Texas, plead guilty the 10th inst. of criminally assaulting a little twelve year-old white girl. He was fined $100 and two weeks in jail. The crime for which the Negro pays the penalty with his life without an opportunity to prove his innocence is a fainable one when committed by a person with a white skin. That's funny.
A special from Lima says: Long before the civil war John Randolph, a Roanoke (Va.) planter, freed his slaves and purchased lands for them in what is now Mercer county. The whites of the vicinity rose up against the Negro and drove them away, without making any compensation for the lands, it is asserted. Now the heirs of these former slaves are making a fight for the land, and the farmers are greatly troubled. About $2,000,000 worth of property is involved.
Great Speech by Rabbi Joseph.
Rabbi Theodore F. Joseph, of the Temple de Hirsch, Seattle, recently preached a sermon on race prejudice. "Prejudice," he said, "is indigenous-to barbarisms and has comedown from the dark ages." Whereas the sermon was especial-
ly intended for members of the Hebrew race, it applied to all mankind discriminated against on account of race, color or previous condition. He said:
"The progress of the human race is very slow. We are not advancing with the sweep of an eagle's wings, but rather with the slow and laborious crawl of a snake. Though the world has been in existence for aeons, and though we may boast of the collossal achievements in industrial and in economic realms, we are now only in the infancy of the world's growth. This assertion is evidenced by the existence of the different prejudices flourishing today.
"What is a prejudice? The etymology of the term clearly defines prejudice as an act of judgment before the requisite knowledge and the necessary facts have been gathered. Prejudice is indigenous to barbarism, and barbarism is characteristic of distruct. Prejudice has come down from the dark ages. For barbarians, the confines of home are co-extensive with the lines of tribal or racial affinity. The first prejudice existed between family and family; then between tribe and tribe. To be the son of another tribe marked one an enemy. As long as men did not come together, they would and could not learn to know one another. Ignorance was then, as it is now, the futile mother of prejudice. There are national prejudices. But nowhere has the dogmatic spirit of prejudice been allowed unchecked play to a greater extent than within the sacred precincts of religion. Nowhere abound so many and such obstinate prejudices as in the shrines where alters flame and the sweet frank incense of devotion curls its devout fragrance heavenward."
A race which has never been oppressed can have but little idea of the weight of depression underwhich it places those so unfortunate. To be barred from privileges which other men enjoy and to which all men have a God-given right, simply because you are who you are, galls at times almost past endurance. Then it is that to the oppressor's treatment seems nothing short of hellishness.—Ex.
Gans' Wife Sues Teacher.
Baltimore, August 1.—Madge M. Gans filed her answer in Circuit Court No. 2 last Saturday to the suit for absolute divorce brought by her husband, Joseph Gans, the well-known colored pugilist. In her answer she denies the charge of unfaithfulness made against him.
She also instituted suit for $5000 damages in the City Court against Martha Davis, a colored school teacher, living at 1114 Argyle Ave. whom she names as co-respondent in her answer and whom she

charges with having alienated the affections of Gans from her. The answer and suit for damages were both filed by George W. Cameron, attorney for Mrs. Gans. She denies in the answer that Joe has conducted himself as a dutiful husband, and declares that he would absent himself from his home and her society for days at a time, never letting her know his whereabouts and causing her great anguish and suffering. She also declares that Gans has been unfaithful, naming Martha Davis as co-respondent, and stating that Gans and the colored teacher have been intimate in Baltimore and Washington. Two letters which will prove allegations are in the possession of the wife, according to the answer.
Until recently, she admits in the answer, Joe gave her enough to eat and to wear. He also supplied her with diamonds, she states, but he pawned the jewels at his pleasure and they are now out of her possession.
Since November 19, 1904, when Gans alleges his wife was unfaithful, she has received numerous letters of an affectionate character from him, the answer asserts, these letters beginning "Dear Wife and ending "Love and Kisses."
She asks that the divorce suit be dismissed. In her suit for damages for the alleged alienation of the affections of her husband she states that while they lived at 1026 Argyle avenue the school teacher, Martha Davis, caused him to abandon his wife and alienated his affections.

Burgolara Dressed as Cooks.
Burglars dressed as pastry cooks' assistants and pretending that they had come to prepare a dinner party, drove boldly up in a motor car, and were admitted to a Parisian flat the other day. The janitor's suspicions being aroused by the strange-looking instruments and tools which he found in the car left in his charge, he summoned the police, and the thieves, about to decamp, with $10,000 worth of booty, were easily captured.

WITHDRAWAL OF LANDS
RESERVATION, IS MYSTERIOUS.
Segregation of Uintah Lands Larger Than Reported—Action Yet Unexplained.
Denver, Aug. 9.—The Republican this morning prints the following special from Washington:
Considerable mystery surrounds the recent segregation of four tracts of land on the Uintah Indian reservation, Utah, which were supposed at the time to have been withheld from entry with a view to their irrigation by the federal government.
Two things are certain, however. These lands, heretofore enumerated in these dispatches, are not to be subject to entry by persons who have registered at Provo, Price, Vernal or Grand Junction, nor will they be subject to entry by any one else under any other laws. Secondly, the area of these four tracts of land, instead of being 50,000 acres as first estimated by the land office, embrace exactly 200,533 acres. Of this total 150,993 acres were withdrawn for "reservoir purposes" and 50,440 acres for "agricultural purposes."
At the time these lands were set apart and withdrawn from the reach of entrymen who will go upon the Uintah reservation, it was stated by the reclamation service that these tracts had been examined by representatives of the Geological Survey and that the men making the examination had asked for the withdrawal of all lands specified, without assigning reasons. It was then assumed that the government would formulate a project for the irrigation of all four tracts.
Inquiry to-day, however, disclosed a different state of affairs. The government has no project on hand and none in contemplation for the reclamation of these four tracts. Nor has it any other plan for their disposal. The lands stand apart, not subject to entry, but not held for any specific purpose.
As near as can be figured out, and no official speaks of this matter with entire frankness or candor, the land office discovered that the law opening the reservation authorized the President to set apart such lands on the reservation as might be deemed necessary for forestry purposes, or for reservoir or agricultural purposes. This provision of the law was called to the attention of the reclamation service, and by it referred to men who had for five years been making stream measurements and irrigation studies on the Uintah reservation at the request of the Indian office. These men, names unknown, requested that the 200,000 acres in question be set apart and not be thrown open to entry, and this was done, the action having been approved by the President.
ATTEMPT AT KIDNAPPING.
Six Men Try to Carry Off Governor Otero's Son.
Santa Fe, N. M., Aug. 9.—To the relief of everyone in Santa Fe, Deputy Sheriff Charles Slosson and posse returned yesterday from the Red house on the Upper-Pecos with Miguel A. Otero, son of Governor Otero. The conspiracy to kidnap the boy culminated by six heavily-armed men riding up to the summer cottage of Mrs. W. B. Childers, who was alone with the servants, and demanding the boy, but fortunately he was with his uncle, Territorial Game Warden Otero, on a fishing trip. Mrs. Childers informed the men that young Otero was not on the premises, but they searched the outhouses without result and then rode away.
This was a third attempt to capture the boy, who is strikingly handsome and the only son of the governor.
While the identity of the would-be kidnappers is not positively known, there is little doubt that the leader is an ex-convict who was recently pardoned by Governor Otero. He was recently seen talking to other ex-convicts in a saloon, and was heard to say: "If we can only get the boy into the mountains the old man will pay a princely ransom for his recovery." While the name of Otero was not mentioned, there is little doubt but that, young Otero and the governor were referred to.
Killed by Shell Explosion.
Cheyenne, Wyo., Aug. 9—At 11:30 yesterday a 3.2-inch shell exploded at the camp of the Eleventh United States infantry, Colonel Moyer commanding, in the Crow Creek forest reserve, thirty-five miles west of the city, killing Private Charles Boggs of company G, and fatally injuring Corporal Carl Becker of company H. The following were seriously injured: Private Harry Survant, company H; Private Harvey M Robinson, company G; Private Butter, company H. Five others were burned and lacerated, but their names were not reported.
The men of H and G companies found the shell lying out on the range that was used last year by the Thirteenth field artillery. It had been fired in practice, but failed to explode. Taking it to camp they attempted to open it. First they hammered it with stones, then a monkeywrench was brought into play. Finally Private Boggs seized the projectile and slammed it down on a rock between his legs. A loud report followed and the air was filled with the arms and legs of Boggs, flying dirt, rock and pieces of the shattered steel shell. When the smoke cleared away no trace of the shell was to be found, and bleeding soldiers lay stunned and unconscious on the ground. The seriously hurt were removed to the field hospital, where Boggs died in a short time. Becker, Survant and Robinson were brought to Ft. Russell, where Becker was operated on late last night.
Surgeon Keffer says Becker will die. Survant, Robinson and Dutter will probably recover.

ENVOYS INTRODUCED
RUSSIANS AND JAPANESE MEET
Peace Commissioners Lunch Together
as Guests of President Roosevelt
Oyster Bay, Aug. 6.—History was made yesterday at Oyster Bay. Russians and Japanese clasped hands and greeted one another with all outward evidence of cordiality and for the first time since nations began to have relations one with another, an executive of a great power received the envoys of two belligerent countries on a mission of peace. President Roosevelt, on behalf of the United States and its people, extended formal greetings to the representatives of Russia and Japan, introduced the plenipotentiaries to one another and entertained them at an elaborate luncheon, at which Russians and Japanese fraternized with one another as comrades rather than enemies. During the luncheon President Roosevelt proposed a notable toast, in which he expressed the "earnest hope and prayer, in the interest, not only of these two great powers, but of all civilized mankind, that a just and lasting peace may speedily be concluded between them."
The handsome war yacht Mayflower, one of the most beautiful vessels of the United States navy, on which the formal reception of the Russian and Japanese plenipotentiaries took place, swung easily at anchor just at the entrance of Oyster Bay from Long Island sound.
As the Japanese mission, headed by Baron Komura and Minister Takahira, ascended the gangway, all attired in black frock coats and shiny silk hats, the band sounded three ruffles and then played a march. At the head of the gangway Commander Winslow received the envoys and as they stepped to the deck, they were greeted by Mr. Peirce. They were escorted immediately to the cabin, where the President was awaiting them.
Their reception was brief and was as devoid of formality as the nature of the occasion would permit. Baron Komura and Minister Takahira shook hands with the President, the cordiality of the greeting being unmistakable.
A few minutes afterwards the form of M. Witte, Russian chief plenipotentiary, appeared at the starboard gangway of the Mayflower. He was followed by Baron Rosen, Russian ambassador and second peace envoy, and eight members of his suite.
They were received precisely as the Japanese had been and they, too, were ushered into the cabin where the President was in waiting to receive them. During the reception of the Russian mission, the Japanese envoys and the members of their suite were in one of the forward cabins. With notable cordiality, President Roosevelt shook hands with M. Witte and Baron Rosen, exchanging with them informal but hearty personal felicitations.
After receiving the members of the suite and presenting all in turn to his personal guests, the President then brought the two sets of envoys together, introducing them formally to one another.
It was a notable scene as the diminutive Baron Komura shook hands with the giant Witte at the instance of the President.
The greetings of the members of the two special missions were distinctly formal, but not the slightest suggestion of enmity was shown on either side. Neither by word nor by action did they indicate even by indirection, anything except utmost cordiality.
Careful to avoid any strain, President Roosevelt, as soon as possible after the introducing, suggested that the party proceed to the main saloon, where luncheon was in waiting.
The President himself led the party, followed by M. Witte, Baron Komura, Baron Rosen and Minister Takahira. Even the formation of this little procession involved a delicate diplomatic problem, but it was agreed that the President solved it admirably.
Although the luncheon was served with their guests standing, the President escorted the four envoys to chairs in one corner of the saloon and in half a minute, through tact and delicacy, the whole party was engaged in animated conversation over their dishes. The conversation generally was in French, as M. Witte speaks little English. Baron Rosen and Baron Komura chatted as though they had been lifelong friends and Minister Takahira, at no time particularly communicative, entered into the conversation with zest and with interest.
At the conclusion of the luncheon, after the President had posed with the four envoys for an official photograph, arrangements were made for the President's departure for Sagamore Hill. He took cordial leave of the envoys and their suites, shook hands with his personal guests on board, and to the music of the band and to the roar of the Mayflower's guns, went over the side and entered his launch. His flag was hauled down, and a few minutes later he was landed at the J. West Roosevelt plier. There he entered his carriage and was driven to his home. The Japanese envoys and their suites were next to leave. They shook hands with the Russian plenipotentiaries, expressing to them their personal gratification at the pleasant meeting they had had. As they went over the side the Mayflower saluted them with nineteen guns.
As they went aboard the Dolphin, the red sun flag of Japan was broken out at the peak of that vessel, and at the same moment the Russian flag was raised over the Mayflower. The vessels are expected to arrive at Portsmouth Monday morning at 10 o'clock, the trip purposely being made in slow time, in order to avoid any inconvenience to the plenipotentiaries.

A scientific comparison of the brains of men and women shows that the former have the larger brain, but authorities do not agree that the extra size and weight carry a corresponding extra degree of intellectual capacity. It is contended that the old female dogma of valuable goods in small packages works in this case also. We are not prepared to refute the argument, for we are reminded that the tongue seems to be subject to the same inexplicable law. But taking size and weight on the one side and quality on the other, a balance is struck which appears to keep either sex from destroying the other.
There is no escaping the fact that the race problem is developing into a mere problem of prejudice which is permeating every corner of this country and extending even to the islands of the sea. It is a problem which must be met with superior judgment and ability for nothing else can ever overcome prejudice. The supreme endeavors of the Negro must be directed to the acquiring of property and learning, and the exercise of such unity of judgment and action as will completely disarm his oppressors. It is entirely a question of social ethics and material worth and no side issues ought ever to be brought into it.
Whatever may be said of the teachings of the Tuskegee Wizard, one thing must not be forgotten, he has taught more effectually than any other man living or dead the lesson of race economy. No other influence is comparable with that of Mr. Washington when we consider the thousands of Negroes who as if by by magic, have begun to work to some purpose. Go where you will and you will find Negroes living in better homes and striving by dint of economy to build houses to rent. It is astonishing to hear how many of the colored people now a-days are saying "It is better to put a dollar in the bank than to spend it at the opera houses." The common sense experiences used by Mr. Washington have become like the maxims of Franklin—the impetus to the material salvation of the race. While the opponents of Dr. Washington and his work are meeting and passing high sounding resolutions, dealing in hair splitting arguments and throwing stones from hidden hands the people, the common sense, right hearted people, are treasuring up the wise sayings and wiser example of the great Tuskegee teacher and making these the basis of a new and better life. Let the good work go on for from a worldly standpoint "A man's best friend is a dollar."—The Charleston, W. Va. Advocate.
WASHINGTON'S WISDOM.
Booker T. Washington once made a remarkable address before the general session of the National Ed-
national Association at Charleston, South Carolina. Always safe and sound in his logic, he was never more forceful, emphatic and convincing than upon this occasion, when, with hundreds of educators from the South and North in his audience to weigh the philosophy of the man who is recognized as the greatest practical educator of the Negro race, he concluded his remarks with these very wise and truthful deductions:
"More and more I hope the white people of this country will learn to measure the worth of the Negro by the best types of the race and not by the worst. In a large degree we should judge by those in the school room, not by those in the penitentiary; by those in the shop and field, not by those in idleness on the streets; by those who have bought homes and are taxpayers, not by those in dens of crimes and misery; by those who have learned the laws of health and are living, not by those who have broken the laws of health and are dying. Keep the searchlight constantly focused upon the weaker elements of any race, and who among them will stand the test that indicates success? You judge the English by Gladstone, the German by Bismarck, the French by Loubet—by those who have succeeded, not by those who have failed and are in the gutter."
COLORED NEWSPAPERS.
It is frequently heard from members of the race that colored newspapers do not contain as much news as may be had from any of the larger dailies. And this is true. But to all who offer this criticism we desire to state that they fail to understand the purpose the colored newspaper is trying to serve. We are not in competition with the great dailies as a purveyor of general news. We wish to make note of the most important happenings contained in newspapers generally, and in addition to this to publish such doings of the race who care anything about their race. In this line we have no competition except among ourselves, for it is apparent to any one who takes the time to think about it, that the poorest of the race papers published will tell you more in one month about what our own people are doing than can be found in any of the metropolitan dailies in double the time. So, after all, it is but a question with you as to whether or not you care to know about what is going on among your kind. If you do care to know, you cannot find it out by reading your morning and evening papers only.—Freeman.
It seems to us, silly for any member of the race to attempt to compare a Negro Weekly Newspaper with that of a metropolitan daily, yet, as the Freeman says, many of the race criticise the Negro weeklies for not having the news as that of the dailies, yet these same people will pick up a Negro newspaper in preference of a daily. The fact of the matter is, they prefer the kind of news that is found in a Negro paper to that found in a white one. The average Negro who makes such assertions are paid up subscribers for white dailies and either borrow or steal a Negro paper in order that he may learn what is going on among his race. Such arguments as above stated put up by any individual are quite flimsy and have no substantial weight whatever.

The method of treating sick persons adopted by Chinese doctors in some cities is similar to that of the other physicians of the United States and those of Great Britain. They depend much, however, on the examination of the pulse. Their sense of touch is so wonderfully developed that it is said they can determine the condition of the heart as well as some of the other organs merely by the feebleness or strength of the beats; but they say there are no less than twelve different movements of the arteries in the human body, all of which can be detected by feeling the fingers, wrist and arm.
When a patient calls on him for examination the doctor first presses the arm, wrist and fingers, touching nearly every part. Sometimes ten or fifteen minutes is occupied with this examination. Then he may ask if the patient is married or single, and also his age; but this is about the limit of the examination. Apparently he can tell the nature of the disease without questioning further, and if the caller wishes a prescription he writes one in the ordinary Chinese characters on a generous-sized square of paper. Ringing a bell, he hands the prescription to the Chinese attendant who enters, for each physician has his own shop, filled with the ingredients
A giant leatherback turtle was received at the American Museum of Natural History yesterday. It is said to be the first that has been taken along the Atlantic coast in fifteen years, as well as the largest ever brought to shore in this country. This one weighs 716 pounds. It was caught off Block island and was presented to the museum by G. M. Long & Co. of New London. It was alive when brought in from the sea, but died shortly after being landed. A wound from a harpoon shows just over the left shoulder.
Upon its arrival at the museum it was taken to the basement, where the museum artist made a sketch of it for the official records. Experts in reptilian genealogy say that the leatherback family is a most ancient one, and that if Adam had ever gone down to the seashore he might have seen one of them. The family can boast of an older line even than that of the serpent that tempted Eve. The experts say that the leatherback is the oldest reptile family in the world. Leatherback is an everyday name. When the men who know all about its
Richard N. Hall, who has given eight years to the study of ancient monuments in southern Rhodesia, says that none of the hundreds of ruins has been more than partially explored, according to the San Francisco Chronicle. Many important ruins have been seen only by casual travelers and the work of unearthing only a part of the Great Zimbabwe area would be more than the labor of a lifetime. Still, researches have made progress in the last few years. There are in Rhodesia no less than 300 distinct ruins and groups of ruins. Only a few scores of these are entitled to rank as "ancient." The largest part of them probably does not date back to the thirteenth, fourteenth and fifteenth centuries.
There is overwhelming evidence at the Great Zimbabwe of ancient civilization and arts possessed by the builders of the earliest period. The Zimbabwe temple is the finest and most intact example of a nature worshiping shrine known to the world. Its construction
We very frequently hear of snake and fish stories and sometimes a pretty good bee story is told, says the Huntsville (Mo.) Herald. Our friend, Bill Heflin, hardly ever relates anything unless he knows what he is talking about, and all who know him won't question his veracity one moment or doubt the correctness of any story Bill may tell if he claims he has a personal knowledge of anything connected with it.
Not long ago Mr. Heflin and Squire O'Bryan were talking about bees and the manner of swarming and Mr. Heflin was reminded of the immense swarm he once saw in Missouri. It was during the time Bill was down south fighting for his country and along about the last of that sanguinary conflict, when Bill saw that the southern boys had to surrender to superior numbers, that he saw the big

which he uses in treatment. If he has a large practice he may employ a native chemist, who makes up the prescription.
One of the curious features of Chinese medical treatment is the way in which the physicians administer their remedies. Nearly all the offices of the principal doctors have what may be called a tea-room attachment. This is a spacious apartment, well lighted, frequently ornamented with Oriental pottery and pictures and containing small tables, each with two or three chairs. If the invalid does not wish to take his medicine at home, he is ushered into this room, and while seated at one of the tables thrinks his prescription as he would a cup of tea or a glass of wine. With but few exceptions the medicine is in liquid form and served hot in dalty Chinese bowls, for most of it is composed of a decoction of herbs.
Each table contains a bowl of raisins, and when the attendant brings in the medicine he also brings in a glass of tepid water. If the drink is bitter, as it usually is, the patient can eat some of the raisins to remove the taste, while with the water he rinses his mouth and throat. Then he is ready to go home, returning the next day for another examination and dose. — Chambers' Journal.
history get to talking about it they refer to it as Dermochelus coriacia, a name not conferred on it by Adam aforesaid. Proof that the family is the most ancient among reptiles is that the spinal column has no fixed attachment to the shell as in the case of more modern turtles that have evolved.
"The museum was very glad to get so rare a turtle," said Prof George H. Sherwood, one of the curators. "It is the most primitive of reptiles now with us. There was one caught in the Indian ocean some years ago that was larger. On land it could easily drag six men after it. It wasn't much larger than this one. This is the third that has been caught in this country to my knowledge in a good many years. When we measured this one we found that it was 6 feet over all, that is, from snout to tip of tall. The shell is 4 feet 10 inches long and 3 feet 1 inch wide. From tip to tip of flippers was 7 feet."
If the skin does not wrinkle too much the turtle will be mounted and placed on exhibition. At any rate plaster cast will be made of it for exhibition.—New York Sun.
points unmistakably to some knowledge of geometry and astronomy on the part of the builders. It is quite certain that even the cruder methods at Zimbabwe of applying this knowledge, which was common to the ancient Semitic peoples, were imported from the near east and did not originate in southeast Africa. The right ascension of the sun, the hellacal rising and the meridian passages of the stars are believed to have been noted at Zimbabwe. These ancient builders were also past masters in the science of military defense, the walls showing that the builders were military strategists of the highest order. Their gold ornaments, finely designed and engraved, could not have been the work of an uncivilized people, and the hundreds of ancient gold mines show that they were skilled in metallurgy and picked out rich shoots, patches and pockets with marvelous cleverness. It is estimated that from these widespread mines they extracted $375,000,000 of gold.
swarm of bees. Bill says one day while marching up the Mississippi valley with his command he saw bees swarming out of a hole in a big cliff. The hole, he says, was about three times the size of a hogshead and the bees filled the entire space and had the appearance of a black cloud coming out of the hole. He did not know how long the bees had been coming out of the hole, but the swarm was two miles wide, one and a half miles thick and twenty miles long, and that they were two hours in passing a given point. Bill did not go into particulars as to how he got the dimensions of this great swarm of bees, nor when they settled, but he says the hole was left in the cliff, for he saw it after the bees had vacated it. This is the biggest bee story we ever heard and it seems too big to be true, but Bill declares that his command was not on a retreat when he saw the swarm.
"I have a lovely daughter, and the peach-erino miss
On the man who works the hardest will bestow a hug and kiss."
The men wired in like madmen; some fainted from the heat;
Some worked their hands to splinters, but they put away the wheat.
They worked all day, and didn't pause to eat their waiting dinner.
And at the end Bill Sluggins was acclaimed an easy winner.
The farmer led him to the house; along went all the crew;
And then brought out his daughter, who had reached the age of two.
They say that, tired as Sluggins was, the fight was mighty warm;
However the may be, just now an orphan owns the house.

WEAR GLASSES DURING SLEEP
Habit, It Is Claimed, Will Cure Cases of Insomnia.
The idea of wearing a pair of spectacles during sleep is one of the strangest of the many strange ideas that have come to our notice, says London Answers. The head of a large firm, who often traveled from one end of the country to the other, preferred to do so at night, so that he could sleep. Although his sight was perfect, his last act before getting into his berth was to put on a pair of spectacles, which were secured to the bridge of his nose by a good spring, and with this adornment he fell asleep.
Those who adopt this peculiar aid to drowsiness appear to sleep without twisting and turning, as some people do; they instinctively acquire a knack of turning only so far as is safe, and they awake unharmed in the morning, with the glasses just as nicely adjusted as when they went to bed. The commencement of the habit is mostly traceable to a difficulty in wooing slumber and to an ion to trying such dangerous remedies morphine. Spectacles, when the eye are not accustomed to them, have no solent effect, and the device afterward becomes a habit.
CARE OF PLANTS IN WINTER.
Air and Sunshine Chief Requisites for Window Ornaments.
Give plants all the fresh air you can. Open doors and windows at some distance from them on pleasant days and give them a chance to breathe in pure oxygen in liberal quantity. Give all the sunshine you can. And aim to keep the temperature of the room between 70 degrees by day and 55 at night. It will probably exceed these figures in both directions, but try to regulate it in such a way as to avoid the extremes of intense heat and dangerous cold.
Use water liberally on the foliage of your plants. By washing off the dust it keeps open the pores of the leaves through which they breathe and it tempers the hot dry atmosphere usually prevailing in the living room. The only way to modify this condition is to keep water constantly evaporating on the stove or register and make frequent use of the sprayer.
Planting Fruit Trees.
When eating a good pear or apple save the seeds and plant them either in a flower pot, where they will germinate before long, or else directly in the garden, when they will come up next spring. To prevent their loss the place must be covered as a mark. It takes a number of years before they bear fruit, but to see the progress of growth from year to year is always interesting. People often think it is not worth while for them to plant trees; they will not live to have fruit of them, and so neglect it entirely. But some one will enjoy the harvest. It is just the individual egoism which affects all classes of society in many ways—Hartford Times.
In New York's Tough Districts.
The experiences of the Bellevue hospital ambulance surgeons in the unlighted districts skirting East river, New York, where it is not safe even for policemen to venture sometimes, have led the hospital authorities to equip the instrument bags carried by the surgeons with a tubular electric dark lantern, sixteen inches long and two inches thick, weighing about two pounds. It serves equally well as a lantern and a night stick. According to the stories of the surgeons, when they have returned from calls to particularly dangerous districts, the defensive end of the contrivance has often proved more useful than the electric ends.
With Men of Prominence
Immortal John Paul Jones
Lamentable Want of Tact
Visiting Grave of "Elia"
Were Stealing Second Base
In Laurence Hutton's "Talks in a Library" he tells of a dinner he gave to Sir Henry Irving: "An unexpected guest at that dinner was Mr. Clemens. He would certainly have been invited had his presence in the city been known. He had arrived from Hartford late in the afternoon, had discovered from the gossip at the club that the Huttons were having a 'rather unusual dinner party,' was told, who were to be present, and decided that it was too good a thing to lose. So he dressed hurriedly, walked in without ceremony just as the feast began, drew up a chair by the side of his hostess, helped himself to her oysters and for the rest of the evening was the life of the party, one enthusiastic admirer of his confessing, over the coffee and cigars, that he would give half he possessed if he were intimate enough with Mark Twain to have him drop in at his house in the same delightfully original and Mark Twainy manner."
Hutton and Edwin Booth were the closest of friends. Hutton possessed one of the best collections in existence of death masks, and it was while Booth was examining this that a most impressive incident occurred. Says Hutton: "I shall never forget the first time he saw the Lincoln mask. He asked, innocently enough, whose it was. And when I told him, my heart for a moment ceasing to beat, he rose
Immortal Job
As thistledown, light and impotent,
Compared with our navy now,
The wind tossed with John Paul
Jones,
The soul of her, helm to bow.
Drifting o'er ocean's meadows green,
Skimming its hills so high—
"But we will blossom," swore Jones, I
ween,
"Into thistles, by and by!"
(Pause and ponder—'twas John Paul
Jones,
Planted the seed that grew)
Into the very knives that mowed
His downlike canvas flew.
See at Whitehaven the flames leap red;
At Belfast Lough the Drake's men dead;
The Bon Homme Richard off Flambor-
head.
"Have you struck?" they cry from the
Serapis.
I am just beginning to fight!"'
Brave deeds were done that night!
But seed of sea or earth
To bloom and grow
Must be laid low
To rise to greater worth.
The Ranger's guns long ceased to roar.
The Homme Richard fights no more.

Mrs. Calliper looked aggrieved as she seated herself opposite her husband at the dinner table, and knowing what was expected of him, he inquired if she had enjoyed the afternoon.
"No, I can't say I have," Mrs. Calliper admitted in a weary tone, "and all for the want of a little tact. Now, I'll tell you what happened. The dressmaker wasn't ready for me when I got there, wouldn't be for nearly an hour, so I happened to remember that Mrs. James, on whom I've never called, though she's often asked me in times past, lived two blocks away. I said I'd go there and return.
"Well, it was a little early for a call perhaps, only about half past 1, but I explained the whole thing to her. I said, 'Here I was, Mrs. James, with an hour on my hands and so near you, and how much better than to make an extra trip for the call.'
"Well, of course, any one with a
Hutton's "Literary Landmarks of London" was largely a labor of love, and was the result of years of hard work. Mr. Hutton gives this example of the difficulties that stood in his way: "Another Sunday afternoon I devoted to pious pilgrimage to the grave of Charles Lamb at Edmonton. As usual, nobody at Edmonton knew anything. The churchyard is not a small one, and it is entirely filled. The sexton and the grave digger and a few persons wandering about could give me no information. Most of them had never heard of Mr. Lamb; and I could not find the sacred spot. Naturally I applied to the rector; and, as he left the vestry door after service, leaning on the arm of a pretty young woman, I approached him, raised my hat and asked, politely, if he could tell me where Charles and Mary Lamb were resting. Really, he could not say! And I, forgetting the day, the place
The late Samuel Colcord Bartlett, when president of Dartmouth college, was not exactly enthusiastic over athletics, but was, nevertheless, often pretty well informed when the students thought him indifferent.
At the time when the following incident is said to have occurred, the baseball team was composed of hard hitting but rather slow and clumsy players, who had lost several close games at home by slow and stupid base running.
One night, the president, nervous and tired, finding himself unable to sleep, quietly drew on his clothes and started for a short walk across the campus, in the hope of quieting his nerves. Now it happened that about the same time a couple of students who had been assisting a classmate in celebrating his birthday started to return to their rooms.

from his seat, took it in his hands and looked at it for a long time without a word. What it meant to him we can imagine. The whole awful, awful business came back to him. The mad dead brother; the martyred, murdered president. Still, without a word, he put it back in its place, and it seemed to me as he did so that he kissed it with his fingers. I have seen him in that room look at it silently over his pipe many and many a time. But he never touched it or spoke of it again, even to me. What he thought of it heaven only knows."
Hutton tells as follows of meeting Rudyard Kipling at a luncheon given to the latter by Richard Watson Gilder: "Another engagement made me late, and I entered the room as the party was breaking up. I was introduced to Mr. Kipling, with whom I exchanged the traditional few formal words, and we drifted apart; but a moment or two afterward he placed himself on the arm of a chair in which I was sitting and said: 'I didn't realize, Hutton, when I met you a moment ago who you were. Dear old Wolcott Balestier, your friend and mine, tried so hard and so many times to bring us together in London and elsewhere, and now he is gone, and I can't understand it all. He died so suddenly and so far away; we had so much to say to each other, and now I have got to wait so long before I can say it.'"
That ruled the main
Became dust again
In an unmarked grave
Known to the sea
But his soul, that ne'er
Feared to do or dare,
It slept not there.
But he saw our navy everywhere!
His prophecy
Fulfilled we see.
Echoed our visit ships,
Armored, bristling bright.
As a field of thistles from thistledown
Grown terrible in might!
And to-day.
From far away
Out of the past.
With home bound pennant from the mast
Flung to the gales,
The hero sails.
Mid the fame leap and the smoke cloud
From saluting cannon manifold
Ancient vessels we behold;
From England's coasts
They sail as ghosts,
From France's shore
They glide once more—
Friend and foe
Of the long ago—
In honor of John Paul Jones
Appearing on the sea.
He sauls thus, after many a year,
To prove his prophecy.
—Howard Clinton Dickinson, in New
Sun.
particle of tact would have pretended to be glad to see me whether it was perfectly convenient or not, but do you know, she just said, 'I'm sorry. Mrs. Calliper, but it is just the hour of the children's luncheon, and I shall have to ask you to excuse me, though I'd be very glad to have you rest here.' "As if I needed any rest! I rose immediately, of course, and started away, but I did say with a great deal of dignity that I couldn't tell when I should be able to come again. I gave her another chance, but all she said was that she was 'sorry it happened so.'
"All the way home I've been thinking how few people there are who have had the benefit of such home training as I had as a girl, and I've been trying to make allowance for that woman; but when I think of the hour I spent in the dressmaker's stuffy waiting room, it certainly is hard work."—Youth's Companion.
and his sacred office, cursed that rector for his criminal ignorance.
"'Great heavens!' I said. 'You ought to be ashamed of yourself. In your care have been placed the ashes of one of the foremost men in the whole history of English letters. And you don't know where they are! They have made your churchyard and your parish distinguished all the world over, I have come 3,000 miles to visit Charles Lamb's grave, and you, the rector of the church, don't know where it is! You ought to be heartily ashamed of yourself.' And I turned upon my heel and left him standing there, speechless and confounded."
Half an hour after the above incident occurred, and while Hutton was groping around the graveyard in the twilight, the rector came to him, hat in hand, apologized most humbly for his ignorance (which he had corrected in the meantime) and conducted him to the grave of the immortal Elia.
The old campus was used as a ball ground, and the sight of the three bases, gleaming white in the moonlight, suggested to one of the happy youths the brilliant idea of "stealing" second base and carrying it home. They succeeded in detaching it, and were pursuing a triumphant though tortuous course across the campus, when who should appear but "Old Prex." There was no escape. The old gentleman sternly accosted them and demanded what they were doing. "W—w—well, sir, to t—tell the truth," stammered they, "we were stealing second base."
President Bartlett bowed with courtly grace, gave a preliminary barking cough and exclaimed:
"Ah, gentlemen, pardon me. I—br—br— didn't know there was anybody in college who could steal second base. Br—br— Good night, gentlemen."
REGISTRATION GROWS
BIG CROWD AT GRAND JUNCTION.
Over Ten Thousand Have Applied for Uintah Land—Many Women in Line.
Denver, Colo., Aug., 10.—A Grand Junction dispatch last night says: Today has been a record maker for the Grand Junction registration office. The record was broken and the total now lands this city over the 10,000 mark. To-night when the count was made the total for the day was 2,237, being 244 more than the opening day.
Fully 1,500 people are known to be en route and the outlook is that the rush will continue up to the limit of time. The registration will close promptly at 6 o'clock next Saturday afternoon.
This morning before 6 o'clock the line at the auditorium began to form. In an hour 300 people were anxiously waiting for the doors to open, and by 8 o'clock this number was increased to 1,000. The line extended over two blocks in length, was very compact and, when the doors of the auditorium were thrown open at 8:30 not less than 1,100 men and women were waiting for the opportunity to register. The line at the time of the opening of the office was probably as great as that of the first day. It was a fine looking, prosperous stream of people. There seemed to be a great many railroad people in the crowd. One Denver tramway conductor, who has been in the service fifteen years, was in line. There were several Civil War veterans and men of all stations and periods of life.
The ladies formed in a line by themselves just west of the auditorium. They were about forty-five in number, more women than has yet been in line at one time. When the doors opened the ladies were admitted first and were soon registered.
On Saturday the office will close at 6 p. m. to comply with the terms of the President's proclamation, and large crowds arriving on the regular afternoon trains on Saturday night will not be able to get registered.
It is expected that the total registration in this city will reach nearly 15,000.
DEATH OF CHAPPELLE.
Yellow Fever Carries off Archbishop of Louisiana.
New Orleans, Aug. 10.—A sudden change in the condition yesterday speedily culminated in the death of Archbishop P. L. Chappelle, of the diocese of Louisiana. The end came at 12.50 p. m. The news of the archbishop's death created a profound shock. Monsignor Chappelle was taken ill with yellow fever last Friday. He had returned to the city three days before, having just completed a tour of Louisiana, and announced on his arrival his intention of co-operating in the efforts then in full swing to stamp out the fever. The archbishop, however, left his house only on one occasion before he was taken sick. On Friday he complained of the symptoms which are the forerunner of yellow fever. Dr. La Rue, the archbishop's physician, Friday diagnosed the case as a genuine attack of yellow fever.
In 1891 Archbishop Chappelle was made bishop coadjutor of Santa Fe and became archbishop of that diocese in 1894. Three years later, on the death of Archbishop Janssen, he was named as archbishop of New Orleans. The year following after the Spanish-American war he was appointed by the Pope as apostolic delegate to Cuba, Porto Rico and the Philippines. He went to the Philippines and spent much time there in connection with the settlement of conditions growing out of the change of sovereignty in the islands. He took up the cause of the friars, and though his work was most difficult, the results achieved received the approval of the vatican. During his stay in Manila he was thrown constantly into contact with Secretary Taft, then the governor of the islands, and they became warm personal friends.
Pacific Coast Raisin Combine.
San Francisco, Aug. 10.—A deal has been consummated which will merge most of the raisin growing interests of this state into one vast corporation to be known as the Central California Raisin Packing Company, and to combine the united properties of the California Raisin Growers' Company and the Mercantile Packing Company, the latter including eleven of the most prominent packers in the state. Trademarks and brands are to be mutual property and there is stipulation that utmost good will is to obtain between the parties to the new corporation.
The business of the concerns will be operated by eleven directors. The packers will be represented by five and the growers by an equal number. The extra director, who is likewise to be president of the company, is to be chosen by the ten. He is to be a man who has affiliations or interest with neither packers nor growers, and in case of a disagreement his shall be the deciding vote.
Henry J. Crocker has been chosen for this position. It is expected that the corporation will represent all the growing and packing interests of the state. The contracts for this year's crop and the crops of the next two years have already been made.
Western Pacific Contract Let.
Kansas City, Aug. 10. It was reported among railroad men and contractors here that the William Kennefick Construction Company of Kansas City had secured the contract for building the Western Pacific railway. The road is to be built by the Gould interests from Salt Lake to San Francisco at a cost of $11,000,000. The contract is the largest single contract for railroad work ever made in the United States. Mr. Kennefick is not in Kansas City. S. N. Lee, who is interested in the construction company, is in New York City, where the contract was let.
FEAR FOR NIAGARA
IMMENSE VOLUME OF WATER DIVERTED FROM FALLS.
Commercial Enterprises are Making Heavy Drains on This Famous Show Place—Its Tremendous Electrical Power the Inducement.
Niagara Falls, August 7:—The volume of water being diverted from the historic Niagara Falls is reaching such proportions that the people of the State are trying to pass laws which will prevent the possibility of a practical wilping out of this sublime natural spectacle.
Water sufficient to develop nearly five hundred thousand horse-power continuously, twenty-four hours per day, for industrial purposes, is now being taken from the river above the Falls, and further developments requiring more water are contemplated.
Probably the largest user of the electricity produced by the waters of the mighty river is the concern which by the five or six thousand degree heat of the electric furnace brings lime and coke into unwilling union, thereby producing what is known as Calcium Carbide. Dry calcium carbide is lifeless as so much broken rock, but in contact with water it springs into activity and begets abundantly the gas Acetylene. The light resulting from the ignition of acetylene is the nearest approach to sunlight known.
These facts, though of comparatively recent discovery, were soon seized by men with an eye to the commercial possibilities and to-day calcium carbide is being shipped everywhere and used for dispelling darkness in buildings of all descriptions, from the ordinary barn of the farmer to the country villa of the wealthy, as well as for lighting the streets of a large number of towns. Acetylene can be easily and cheaply installed, and the manufacture and sale of acetylene generators has become a business of recognized standing, has assumed large proportions and is steadily growing.
Money Lost by Lightning.
During a thunderstorm at Tarrytown, New York, a flash of lightning did a peculiar freak. Louis Debiasto, an Italian, was sitting under his piazza in Valley street, counting his money, preparatory to a trip to Italy. A terrible flash of lightning nearly blinded him and when he recovered his sight his pocket book and money were missing. The lightning had struck the pocket book and burned the money, and yet Debiasto's hands were not even scorched. There was about $200 in the pocket book, representing many years hard work. Debiasto was dazed for the balance of the afternoon.
Round-Up of Buffaloes.
An exciting drive of buffaloes is reported from the interior of the Yellowstone Park, a large number of blson escaping from their reserve in the hills while quenching their thirst in the Gardner river.
The park fence offered but little resistance to the burly brutes who, one after another, leaped over the obstruction. A hurry call to Fort Yellowstone brought out a detachment of cavalry and the troopers were accorded an experience which they will not forget for some time.
Several of the cavalrymen were thrown from their horses during the excitement of the round-up and were forced to scurry behind trees for safety as the maddened buffaloes would charge blindly at anything in their path.
Like a bull, the buffalo will charge an obstacle with his eyes on the ground unable to see ahead at the time, and more than one bison turned somersaults as a result of colliding with trees in their blind fur.
It required several hours of the hardest kind of work on the part of the troopers before the buffaloes were finally headed back to the park.
Sports of Fish.
For twenty years fish of many varieties have been kept in aquaria by F. Davis of London and his observations have convinced him—contrary to common belief—that fish sleep, though only in darkness. Artificial light awakens them. He finds also that fish have their play or sports, like other creatures.
BABY'S INSTINCT
Shows He Knew What Food to Stick To.
Forwarding a photo of a splendidly handsome and healthy young boy, a happy mother writes from an Ohio town:
"The enclosed picture shows my 4-year-old Grape-Nuts boy.
"Since he was 2 years old he has eaten nothing but Grape-Nuts. He demands and gets this food three times a day. This may seem rather unusual, but he does not care for anything else after he has eaten his Grape-Nuts, which he uses with milk or cream, and then he is through with his meal. Even on Thanksgiving day he refused turkey and all the good things that make up that great dinner, and ate his dish of Grape-Nuts and cream with the best results and none of the evils that the other foolish members of the family experienced.
"He is never sick, has a beautiful complexion, and is considered a very handsome boy. May the Postum Company prosper and long continue to furnish their wholesome food!" Name given by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich.
There's a reason. Read the little book, "The Road to Wellville," in every pkg.
WESTERN BANK FAILS
DENVER INSTITUTION ASSIGN8
The Denver Savings Bank Stands Up Under Two-Days' Run and Meets All Demands.
Denver, Aug. 10.—The Republican this morning says: It was the expected that happened yesterday when the Western Bank, organized under state law, and having for directors some of those connected with the Denver Saving Bank, did not open its doors in the morning but posted a notice that an assignee had been chosen. This, as was very pertinently put by the secretary of the Denver Clearing House Association, cleared the financial sky. The president of the Western Bank has stated that every depositor will be paid in full as soon as the securities can be realized on and authorities in financial matters state that the bank will ultimately make good.
Concerning the Denver Savings Bank, which was made the subject of a "run" on Tuesday, the atmosphere has been materially cleared and this institution will continue. The excitement has died and the heads of the bank have taken the public into their confidence, publishing this morning a list of the stockholders, and have cleared away several rumors, the result of which will be increased confidence and the disappearance of the line of anxious depositors. The bank has a full supply of funds on hand, has heavy deposits in local banks and has not been required to dispose of any of its securities or to ask any of the Denver national banks for aid.
The Central Savings Bank, which has a large number of depositors, has been tendered the backing of the Denver Clearing House and of individual banks in Denver and elsewhere, in case of need, but fortunately it is not disturbed.
Everything possible has been done by the responsible bankers and business men of Denver to maintain confidence and keep the excitable few from losing its head, and there is no danger whatever. Denver is in splendid financial shape. For twelve years the city has been free from booms and exploitations. Its progress has been normal and sensible. If anything the values of Denver property have been kept under rather than expanded and a repetition of '93 would be absolutely impossible.
At a meeting of depositors of the Western Bank held last evening at the Majestic building attended by 150, called on short notice, the utmost harmony prevailed, something wholly unusual-for such a gathering and a responsible committee was named to inquire into the condition of the bank and report at an early meeting.
Henry M. Beatty, named as assignee, was praised as an honest, conscientious citizen, who would perform his whole duty and who had the entire confidence of the business world and banking houses.
Garfield Wants Good Roads
Denver, Aug. 10.—A Glenwood Springs dispatch last night says: A good roads association was organized in Glenwood Springs to-day under the direction of W. H. Moore, president of the national association. Three meetings were held, one at 10 o'clock addressed by Mr. Moore, another at 2 o'clock in which Senator A. S. Mann of Florida was the principal speaker, and another at 8 o'clock this evening at which Mr. Moore delivered his illustrated lecture on good roads of the world.
At the conclusion of the meeting this evening the citizens present organized the Garfield County Good Roads Association and elected the following officers: President, E. H. Grubb; vice presidents, C. L. Toff and K. C. Voorhees; secretary, W. W. Livingston; treasurer, E. E. Drach.
Resolutions recommended that the county commissioners submit to the taxpayers of the county at the next general election the proposition of bonding the county for the construction of permanent roads in such sum as shall be determined necessary after careful investigation.

Sound as a Dollar.
Monticello, Minn., Aug. 7th—Mr. J. W. Moore of this place stands as a living-proof of the fact that Bright's Disease, even in the last stages, may be perfectly and permanently cured by Dodd's Kidney Pills.
Mr. Moore says: "In 1898 three reputable physicians after a careful examination told me that I would die with Bright's Disease inside of a year. My feet and ankles and legs were badly swollen; I could hardly stand on my feet and had given up all hopes of getting cured when a traveling salesman told me that he himself had been cured of Bright's Disease two years before.
"He said he had taken to his bed and expected to die with it, but that he had been cured by a remedy called Dodd's Kidney Pills.
"I commenced taking them at once and I am thankful to say that they saved my life. After a short treatment I was completely restored to good health and I am now as sound as a dollar."
The average promoter finds it much easier to work suckers than to work wonders.
Baby Covered With Sores and Scales
—Could Not Tell What She
Looked Like—Marvelous
Cure by Cuticura.
"At four months old my baby's face
and body were so covered with sores
and large scales you could not tell
what she looked like. No child ever
had a worse case. Her face was being
eaten away, and even her finger nails
fell off. It itched so she could not
sleep, and for many weary nights we
could get no rest. At last we got
Cuticura Soap and Ointment. The
sores began to heal at once, and she
could sleep at night, and in one month
she had not one sore on her face or
body.—Mrs. Mary Sanders, 709 Spring
St., Camden, N. J."

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 office. 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.

Colorado Day—Lewis & Clark Exposition, Portland, August 22, 1905.
The largest and most important excursion to Colorado to the Portland fair this year will be that of August 19th, to be run under the auspices of the Colorado Board of Managers for the Lewis & Clark Exposition, and the Colorado Board of Managers. The exposition management has set aside Tuesday, August 22d, as Colorado Day, and Governor McDonald and the Colorado Board of Managers are planning to make the day one of the most worthy during the life of the exposition.
Plans for the program at Portland, though as yet incomplete, include a great mass meeting at the Temple of Music on the afternoon of October 5, the Governor's Governing Chamber of Oregon, the mayor of Portland, Governor McDonald, President Goods of the Lewis & Clark Exposition, and other prominent speakers from this session. The program will be a banquet or a ball or possibly both, and on the following day an excursion to points on Puget Sound. The official Colorado train will leave Denver on August 24, and move the Denver & Rio Grande railroad. It will carry Governor McDonald and his staff and the Colorado visitors to Portland on account of the state's celebratory train for the Colorado delegates to the National Irrigation Congress, which holds its thirteenth annual session in Portland, August 22-24. Arriving in Salt Lake City on the morning of August 24 the train will lay over there until 8 p.m. A royal day's entertainment is being planned by the Utah Commercial Club and the citizens of Salt Lake City. The train will reach Portland early Tuesday morning.

It isn't the amount of religion a church member has that counts so much as the amount he uses in his daily business.
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 ¾-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 oz." Demand Defiance and save much time and money and the annoyance of the iron sticking. Defiance never sticks.
Many a reigning society belle does not know enough to go in when it rains.

DREADS DOCTOR'S QUESTIONS
Thousands Write to Mrs.Pinkham, Lynn,
Mass., and Receive Valuable Advice
Absolutely Confidential and Free
There can be no more terrible ordeal
to a delicate, sensitive, refined woman
than to be obliged to answer certain
questions in regard to her private ills,
even when those questions are asked
by her family physician, and many
Mrs. T. C. Willadsen
continue to suffer rather than submit to examinations which so many physicians propose in order to intelligently treat the disease; and this is the reason why so many physicians fail to cure female disease.
This is also the reason why thousands upon thousands of women are corresponding with Mrs. Pinkham, at Lynn, Mass. To her they can confide every detail of their illness, and from her great knowledge, obtained from years of experience in treating female ills, Mrs. Pinkham can advise women more wisely than the local physician. Read how Mrs. Pinkham helped Mrs. T. C. Willadsen, of Manning, Ia. She writes:
Dear Mrs. Pinkham:
"I can truly say that you have saved my life, and I cannot express my gratitude in words. Before I wrote to you telling you how I felt, I had doctored for over two years steady, and spent lots of money in medicines besides, but it all failed to do me any good. I wrote to you saying that I had healing spells, backache, bearing-down pains, and my monthly periods were very irregular and finally ceased. I wrote to you for your advice and received a letter full of instructions just what to do, and also commenced to take Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, have been restored to perfect health. Had it not been you I would have been in my grave to-day."
Mountains of proof establish the fact that no medicine in the world equals Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound for restoring women's health.

CONSUMPTION
TO CLIMB PIKE'S PEAK
TO CLIMB PIKE'S PEAK
GREAT AUTOMOBILE CONTEST.
Denver, Colo., Aug. 8—Entry blanks for the "Pike's Peak or Bust" climb by automobiles have been issued by the Motor Field, published in this city. The contest will be for the possession of the G. A. Wahlgreen cup, which has been offered by the publisher of the magazine named. The entry blank gives the first detailed information concerning the rules and conditions under which the climb will be attempted. It will be over the old wagon road from Cascade, altitude 5,929 feet, to the top of the peak, altitude 14,107 feet. The rise in elevation from start to finish will therefore be 8,115 feet.
Eleven classes will be made for the different machinas, drivers being cautioned that the climb is not only difficult and dangerous, but that it will be made at their own risk. A stiff entrance fee of $100 per machine has been made, the half of the fee to be returned to each owner who shall register at the Half Way house. Controls will be established at different points along the line, where supplies of gasoline and water may be renewed. The other conditions in the entry blank follow:
"Entries close August 20th. A penalty of $50 will be exacted from those who enter after that date, if their entry is accepted.
"Classes and classifications:
"Sixth, all over $4,500—Regular stock car as per maker's catalog.
"Seventh—Cars weighing from 551 to 751 pounds.
"Eighth—Cars weighing from 851 to 1,432 pounds.
"Ninth—Cars weighing from 1,432 to 2,204 pounds.
"Tenth—free for all—Any weight power and horse power.
"Eleventh—Any weight, cylinder fired, gasoline power cars.
"The management reserves the right to declare out all classes which do not fill and to postpone the climb from the dates announced, if the weather is unfavorable.
"The G. A. Wahlgreen cup is valued at $1,000, and is to be contested for annually, under conditions similar to those governing the present contest. When the cup shall have been won three times by the same owner it becomes the personal property of this person. The cup is to be awarded to the car, irrespective of class, which makes the best record to the summit of Pike's peak. Handsome prizes will be awarded those who finish first and second in each class.
"A big automobile meet and road race from Denver to Colorado Springs will be held in connection with the Pike's Peak climb.
"All cars must carry two male passengers, each of whom must be competent to manage and control the automobile. Every car must be equipped with an extra emergency brake, which must be thoroughly tested before the start is made. Women will not be allowed to take part in the contest, either as drivers or passengers. Manufacturers entering stock machines, must agree to sell cars for prices entered, on demand, for cash.
"Competent repair men, as well as supplies of the best gasoline and lubricants, will be found at the scene of competition."
"Contestants are notified that owing to the rare atmosphere which will be encountered as cars near the summit of the peak, especial care will have to be given the engines, and this question should be carefully studied before the climb is attempted. The right to reject any entry is reserved. A change of gears will be the only variation allowed in the equipment of regular stock cars participating in this contest. Owing to the fact that storms may be encountered at any time during the climb, contestants are advised to provide themselves with heavy clothing.
"Further information can be obtained from G. A. Wahlgreen, manager, 1748 Stout street, Denver, Colorado."

BANKERS OF COLORADO
BANKERS OF COLORADO
HOLD CONVENTION AT GREELEY
General Prosperity Reported Throuhout the State—Agriculture the Theme of Many Speeches.
Greeley, Colo., Aug. 8.—One hundred delegates registered in the Colorado State bankers' convention yesterday and as many more are expected to-day. The meeting was characterized by good fellowship and to-day's session was pronounced by all the most enthusiastic one ever held. Every section of the state is represented from Lamar to Durango, and from Fort Collins to Pueblo. The keynote of every address is the genuine prosperity of the present and the bright prospects for the future. Each member wears a good-sized tag upon which is printed: "My name is — from — Who are you and where from?"
The badges are stick pins representing potatoes, upon which are printed: "Greeley, 1905, C. B. A." The pins are mounted on copper colored ribbons.
Mayor Green was out of town, so ex-Mayor Henry C. Watson, a director of the Gresley National bank, gave the address of welcome, which was responded to by B. N. Freeman of the Colorado State bank of Durango. Hon. J. L. Brush, president of the association, followed with the annual address. He stated that during the year not a failure had occurred among the banks belonging to the association. He said that the membership of the association has increased fifty per cent during the year and that sixty JVe per cent of all the banks in the state belong to the association now.
Among those responding with short speeches in the afternoon were Frank Briggs, cashier of the Bank of Northern Colorado, of Windsor. He spoke of the fine agricultural country in his section, which produced crops second to none. G. A. Webb, cashier of the Fort Collins National bank, said that Fort Collins was forging to the front and that there was a prospect of several new banks in Larimer county soon. W. B. Adams of the State Bank of Lamar spoke of the big sugar factory in process of construction there. Senator W. A. Drake, director of the First National bank of Fort Collins, read a practical paper on sugar beet culture and the sheep feeding industry. President Brush introduced the speaker as "the man who fed 40,000 lambs and made $2 apiece on them last year."
Senator Drake said sheep feeding in Larimer county started from an accident in 1889. At that time Bennett Bros & Prout intended to feed sheep in Nebraska. In bringing them on from Mexico they were caught in a heavy storm which was severe on the sheep. They brought the sheep to Fort Collins to recuperate. The animals thrived so well that their owners built pens, bought hay and fed the flock there. Since then there is annually fed in this state 1,500,000 lams every year for market. So profitable and sure is the sheep feeding industry that bankers are willing to back the sheep feeder, if they can furnish pens, labor and hay.
Senator Drake spoke of the value of alfalfa as a food for sheep and its value in fertilizing lands. The speaker also spoke of the good profit made in beet raising, which, in his experience, did not deplete the land on which the beetles were grown.
James P. Miller of the Lafayette bank told of 400 acres of wheat raised on the Gun Barrel hill in his section which harvested fifty bushels to the acre and was grown without irrigation. Mr. Coller of the Boulder National bank told of the prosperity in his section. W. H. Brigham of Breckinridge said he was in a mineral community which had bright prospects for the future. John T. Burns, secretary of the Colorado State Commercial association, opened his address by saying that he was a booster without a bank. His theme was "Turning Sunshine Into Cash." He said that our success as a state is based on the glorious sunshine and climate of Colorado; that no state in the union is so gifted with natural resources. He emphasized the duty of making the riches of the state known by co-operation.

Royal Gorge National Park.
Denver, Aug. 8.—A Republican special from Canon City says: In pursuance of instructions from Secretary Wilson of the Department of Agriculture, W. J. Morrill of the United States Forest Service has completed an inspection of the highlands along the top of the Royal Gorge to have them set apart as a national park, similar in object and purpose to the Yosemite and Yellowstone parks.
Mr. Morrill made a complete survey of the territory and will recommend the dedication of practically all of township 18 south, range 71 west of the sixth principal meridian, as a public park for the free use for the people of the United States. The strip to be reserved begins a mile and a quarter west of Canon City and extends on both sides of the Arkansas river westward nearly to Parkdale.
From north to south the reservation will extend four and a half miles and will include within its boundaries Fremont peak and a considerate' section of Eight Mile park.
Pope Praises Roosevelt.
Rome, Aug. 8.—The Pope yesterday received in private audience Edward J. Sullivan, American consul at Thebizond, Turkey, and E. Martin, his secretary. The Pope was most cordial and sent his salutations to President Roosevelt. He expressed the most fervent desire that peace would be concluded between Russia and Japan and said that President Roosevelt was entitled to the thanks of the whole civilized world for his efforts to bring the bloody conflict to a close. He then imparted his apostolic benediction and presented Mr. Sullivan with his photograph bearing his autograph and an inscription.
TWENTY YEARS OF IT.
Emaculated by Diabetes; Tortured
with Gravel and Kidney Bone.
Henry Soule, cobbler, of Hammondsport, N. Y., says: "Since Doan's Kidney Pills cured me eight years ago, I've reached 70 and hope to live many years longer. But twenty years ago I had kidney trouble so bad I could not work. Backache was persistent and it was agony to lift anything. Gravel, whirling headaches, dizziness and terrible
many years longer. But twenty years ago I had kidney trouble so bad I could not work. Backache was persistent and it was agony to lift anything. Gravel, whirling headaches, dizziness and terrible urinary disorders ran me down from 168 to 100 pounds. Doctors told me I had diabetes and could not live. I was wretched and hopeless when I began using Doan's Kidney Pills, but they cured me eight years ago and I've been well ever since."

RUSSIANS AT SCHOOL IN JAPAN
Novel Treatment of Seventy Thousand Enemies Who Were Captured by Japanese Army and Navy.
It is a very peculiar story that comes from the Far East, where, according to trustworthy information, the Japanese government has organized a regular program of educational work for the benefit of the more than seventy thousand Russian prisoners now scattered over Japan. The Japanese have addressed themselves to their task in their usual methodical and business-like way. A complete census of the prisoners was first taken, the Russians, Poles and Jews being separated. Then the illiterate, mostly Russians, were formed into classes, which were placed under teachers selected from among the best educated of the prisoners, under Japanese supervisors. In addition, more advanced educational work was undertaken, instruction being imparted in Russian and Polish. And here it may be remarked that some of the Polish prisoners have jokingly remarked that it has been necessary for them to come all the way to Japan to learn their own tongue, which is under a ban at home. The plans of the progressive little Japa for the intellectual and moral improvement of their prisoners have succeeded beyond expectations. Even the amusements afforded the captives are of an instructive character. Books and newspapers are liberally provided, and plays are represented in the camps, in which Japanese actors perform historical pieces, generally incubating the fundamental virtues, patriotism above all.
The treatment of the prisoners taken in battle can hardly be described, as adding insult to injury, though some of the Russian authorities might be inclined to consider it that way. And it is difficult to determine just what the purpose of the Japanese is in this work, which is certain to have a powerful influence upon Russian domestic affairs in the near future. Can it be that Japan is deliberately inoculating her prisoners with the microbes of education and patriotism for the purpose of spreading them abroad through the Russian empire, or is it merely a good natured and humanitarian effort to provide occupation for the captives during their enforced idleness?—Pueblo Chieftain.
Fraved Cuffs.
Among the minor arts of life of which we have lately given some instances is one which is sadly neglected. It relates to the treatment of shirt cuffs that show the first protest against the laundry's handling. The laudress is cruel, but the man who pares his shirt cuffs with scissors heaps folly upon brutality. With the first touch of steel the cuff is ruined. Light a match and pass it round the frayed edge (do not burn your wrist). The cleansing fire will remove the dross and leave intact the pure gloss of the cuff. A cuff treated with fire will last laundry generations longer than the cuff treated with steel—London Chronicle.

Novelties in White Serge.
In the white serge frocks, the
French makers have introduced many
novelties in cut and line. The Empire
ideas that have taken so firm a hold
dately appear here, as elsewhere, and
Empire coats, long or short, are made
up in white serge or white cloth with
skirts to match and with severe tailor
finish or with collars, cuffs and motifs
of heavy open work embroidery on
linen.
Beautifur Blouses.
Surplice-cut blouses, leaving the
throat bare or worn with a transpar-
‘ent guimpe and collar of lace, are liked
for summer frocks, but though ohare
ing they are not so youthful as the
blouse frilled to some sort of yoke and
fastening in the back, and they should
be reserved for the older girls. Here
again we often find very heavy em
broidery, applique or band insertion
bordering the surplice, while the rest
of the frock is trimmed lightly and
fluMy in valenciennes insertion and
edging. Heavy embroidery insertion
scalloped on both edges and with val
enciennes frills bordering the scallop:
is liked for the surpiice borders and
may be used, too, upon the sleeve and
‘as heading for skirt flounces.
‘Baharatian tab tleueias
For our blouses to be seen at their
best it behooves us to provide them
with fresh and attractive neckwear,
‘Since on neckwear to a large extent
@epends their success, Beginning
with neckwear for the simple shirt
waist or shirt, as the English term
it, there is a new turnover collar, some
three inches deep, of canvas linen,
embroidered with a spot. Beneath
this is passed a band of chameleon
ribbon or plain glace silk, fastened
with a rosettelike knot in front, high
up against the collar, and the ends,
which are plaited, are knotted a few
inches below the neck, and end fn fan-
like flutes.
" Rainbow ribbons are used for a sim-
flar purpose; the knot and ends are
formed of two soft ribbons in different
eolors. A hem-stitched border to the
collar sometimes introduced shows
glimpses of the band of ribbons pass-
ing beneath; and, again, these em-
broidered canvas collars are in vari-
ous instances pierced with wide but-
tonholes in front, and tied with the
ribbons, which, as before, are arranged
in the fashion of rosettes.
‘The washing of ribbons is not al-
ways attended by the best results. The
following is a milliner’s method and
most successful: Put the ribbon Into
a basin of warm water, rub on some
good white scap and wash as you
would anything else. While still wet
fron on the right side with a hot tron
and when dry rub between the hands
as if washing it until all the stiffness
is out, then fron again to remove the
wrinkles. When ribbons are washed
in this way it is difficult to.tell them
from new.
Nearly every woman knows from
experience how difficult it is to wash
successfully a crocheted shawl and
have it look fluffy and ‘in prime condi-
tion when dry. One woman made a
triumphantly successful experiment.
She put the shawl into a pillow case,
tied a string around the top, and then
washed it in plenty of soap and hot
water.
Soak cocoanut macaroons in the
syrup of rich preserved peaches until
rather soft. Beat the whites of four
eggs until very stiff, then beat in by
degrees half a cupful of powdered
sugar and two tablespoonfuls of the
peach syrup. Mix in lightly a pint of
sweet cream. Whip to a stiff froth and
place in alternate layers with the
soaked macaroons in a deep glass
dish, heaping the cream on _ top.
Sprinkle over it shredded cocoanut.
The Traveling Gown.
A soft shade of rose-pink Sicilienne
is selected for the traveling gown,
and the coat bodice is fashioned with
an open front, filled in with a low-cut
waistcoat of pique that may be re-
moved instanter. There is a smart
listle cape collar effect over the
shoulders; the sleeve is one of those
fluffy elbow-length models with lace
ruffles, and a deep rose-red velvet rib-
bon Is relied upon to make the touch
of color contrast that the present
mode demands. The skirt is plain, ex-
cept for a shaped scant volant of yel-
yet applied above the deep hem, shir-
rings adjusting the fit.
| Time was when a waist and skirt
were accounted a dress; but in this
elaborate day a dress isn’t a dress
unless it has also an outside wrap of
some sort made to match it and 7orn
with it alone. This is true even of the
linen shirt-waist frock whereto is
added a jaunty little linen coat and
the proper thing seems to be to wear
this third garment through the ther-
mometer says 94 and you languish
with heat.
Eolienne has a place among coat
materials this season, but voile, saye
in coat and skirt costumes, has lost
favor with the coatmakers. The silky
eolienne lends itself readily to the
flowing lines of the loose, full coat,
whether short or long, and is a serv-
iceable material; though, on the
whole, a taffeta coat is a better invest-
ment than one of eolienne, even if
more expensive at the start,
_ ‘If a girl is making a fancy white
petticoat to wear with transparent
skirts she can not have a_ prettier
ruffle on it than one made of handker-
chiefs.
One of the most charming linen
gowns of the season is pictured in the
