Grand Lodge Holds Its Twenty-Ninth Annu- Reports Show Much the Past The twenty-ninth session of the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge A. F. & A. M., convened in Leadville, Col., last Monday morning. The session was called to order by Grand Master, F. T. Bruce of Denver. After the preliminary work the reports from the grand secretary and treasurer showed a gain over that of last year to be 50 per cent. which was very gratifying to the grand body. The bulk of the business was completed Tuesday. Pythigoras Lodge No. 7. A. F. & A. M. of Leadville tendered a banquet for the visiting delegates on Wednesday night. As a social event it proved to be one of the best in the history of the Cloudy City. The address of welcome by Mayor H. C. Rose to the Grand Lodge was one of the best, or perhaps the best that has ever been delivered before that body. It is as follows: "F. T. Bruce, Grand Master of the Grand Lodge of A. F. and A. M. and the Delegates of the Grand Lodge. "On behalf of the City of Leadville I express to you their kind wishes in the accomplishment of the great work for which you are assembled. "There is no order established among men that is as old as the one you represeut. The Masonic order had its origin in India; and from thence it moved into Syria, Egypt and Greece, thence into central and western Europe, and with the western emigration to America it was organized and established in the colonies of what is now the United States. "The peoples and nations which have endorsed and supported the tenets and ideas and principles of the Free and accepted Masons are today ruling and controlling the world. They are the nations in which human rights and liberty to man are extended in a greater degree to all the people than any other institutions have been able to confer. Upon them the growth of Masonry marks the growth of civilization and governments of law. Where the institutions which you represent are found, and their principles are generally promulgated and endorsed, there you find the peoples and nations governed by law, and the business, industries and commerce built up; also provision for the education and enlightenment of the people is provided for by law. The peoples and nations which have dis- --- History Society, Denver, Colo. Saved By Pa RAC ORAI THE JOURNAL ge, A. F. & A. M. ual Session in Leadville, Colo., Progress Made During t Year. carded Masonry. and refused to accept its principles and teachings are today barbarians or semi-civilized, their people oppressed, degraded and reduced to the condi- of peon or serfs. "A comparison of the conditions thus stated establishes the fact beyond question that the founders and originators of the Masonic order did as much or more for the world, in the way of building up government and improving the people and developing the Arts and Sciences, as any institution formed by man. "In Europe Masonry knows no distinction of color or race; but in the United States the distinction of slavery having been thrust or forced upon the colonies, tended to and did degrade both the slave and his master or owner. This condition of race tended to and did create a prejudice between the two classes; and like all prejudices it will take time to remove it. But as the master and his descendants and the slave and his descendants (who are now freemen) become educated and enlightened in a higher and better degree, this prejudice will be gradually obliterated. "The obliteration of this prejudice will depend largely upon the colored people themselves. If they become industrious, economical and frugal in their habits; lawabiding and moral in their conduct, they will attain to the same degree of respectability and standing as is accorded by peoples and nations to the white race. The acquisition of homes and wealth compel a business contact with other peoples. Honesty in dealing gives respect to the man or woman. Obedience to the laws ranks them as citizens entitled to sovereignty; moral habits; a respect for the opinions and feelings of others, compel respect from all substantial people in return. "The man or the woman who spends his or her time in complaining never succeeds; it is the man who accepts the conditions as he finds them, and makes the best of them, and uses his best efforts to improve those conditions, and make them better for those who follow after him who succeeds. * * * "Again tendering you the best wishes and kindly feelings of the Masons and people of Leadville for your success in the laudable enterprise you have undertaken. On behalf of the Masons and the people of Leadville, I bid you welcome. DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, AUGUST 19, 1905.

Arthur Roscower of Goldsboro, N. C., is in Denver on a mission of inquiry regarding how Colorado has progressed. He has been commissioned by the governor of his state to visit the North and West to report on the industrial situation, having reference more particularly to emigration. North Carolina has determined to be rid of the Negro and to employ in his place the new citizens of the republic. The races from the South of Europe are not wanted. "This question of drawing the immigrants from Europe to the Southern states is attracting a great deal of interest, not alone in North Carolina, but in a number of the states that have been classed in the "black belt" said Mr. Roscower last night. "At the next session of the legislature in our state a law will be passed providing for a commissioner of immigration who will be stationed at Ellis island, New York. His duties will be to select the best homeseekers and induce them to settle in the state of North Carolina. "The younger generation of Negroes are worse than useless and the white people who employ labor have decided to get rid of them. Whenever he gets a dollar in his pocket the young Negro is of no use; he will not work, but will persist in lying around groggeries The older generation of Negroes were all right but the blacks of today are hindering the growth of the South.—Denver Republican Washington Mrs. Warburton's Escort. Saratoga, N. Y., Aug. 13. Booker T. Washington's appearance at dinner to-day in the great diningroom of the United States hotel caused a mild sensation among the diners. Mr. Washington was the guest of John Wanamaker, former postmaster general, and acted as escort of Mrs. Barclay Warburton, Mr. Wanamaker's daughter, while Mr. Wanamaker walked to the table with J. R. E. Roberts. As they walked down the long line every eye was directed upon the distinguished Negro educator and the former cabinent officer. Comparatively few of those present recognized either of them and there was a general buzz of comment and a craning of necks. Mr. Washington preached here three times today, first in the Presbyterian church, then in the Baptist church and late in the evening in the American Methodist church. RACE NEWS Gathered from Various Sources. It is said that Booker T. Washington now owns the farm on which he and his people were slaves. At Temple, Tex., all the freight handlers at both the M. K. & T., and the Santa Fe depots are colored men. The firm of Windham Brothers, colored, of Pine Bluff, Ark., has received the contract for the erection of a $45,000 brick structure in Columbus, Ohio. Luther Biglow shot and seriously wounded Rev. Pink Wesley of the Sulpher Springs, Texas, Baptist church. Both are colored. Bigelow claims Wesley was paying too much attention to his wife. In Baltimore a Negro was fined fifty dollars for beating a mule, while a white man who beat his wife was set free. Now you can figure on whether this is race antipathy, Southern chivalry or a native love for the great American mule. New York, August 8.—A cable to the Sun from Antwerp says: Passengers from the Congo Free State who arrived by steamship today state that a report is current in the colony that a tribe of cannibals known as the Nioms have killed and eaten 2000 Negroes and eight German colonists. On the charge of having a Negro member, Freedom Lodge, K. of P., of Worcester, Mass., is on trial before the grand officers of the order. Leander S. Gilliam; who was appointed to a district office a few weeks ago is the member who is objected to on the allegation that he is not a white man. At Chicago last week, a colorod Dowie minister, in his curbstone sermon, told colored men that they were all bound for hell. He used the low, hatred word, "nigger," which provoked the direct irie of colored men standing near. These jolly fellows at once resented the insult, got a rope, put in around his neck and dragged him a block. This happened at 29th and Dearborn. In a cutting affray at Columbia, Mo., Sunday, August 6th, a Negro was stabbed in the breast, the --- weapon piercing the lung and leaving the heart exposed to view. The Negro was taken to the hospital where his wounds were dressed, though there was little expectation that he would recover. Since that time, however, he has been steadily improving, and the physicians say he is likely to live. A penitentiary guard at Walla Walla, Wash., lost his job because of his love for one Flora Ferguson, a female ex-convict, who happened to be colored. For the love of this woman the guard made a great sacrifice. First he robbed his wife of all the money she had and then deserted her, next his job and what little honor he ever possessed has gone. And yet she was only a colored woman of the very lowest type. But why murmur? Human nature is human nature all over the world. Dallas, Texas., Aug. 14. Because of the recent lynching at Sulphur Springs, Tex., the Negro Baptist Sunday school and Baptist Young People's union state convention will be held here instead of at Sulphur Springs. This descision was reached at a meeting of the executive board of the two bodies held here today. The statement was made that Sulphur Springs was not a safe place for Negroes at present, because of the feeling engendered by the burning of a Negro there a few days ago. Omaha, (Neb), August 9.—Colored cooks have been displaced by white men on all the dining cars on the Union Pacific. Criticisms have been made that, while the colored man's cooking might be of a superior quality, he was not so cleanly and painstaking as the white man in his traveling kitchen. Other roads which have at times adopted white cooks say they have been found satisfactory. The matter is partly an experiment with the Union Pacific. A deputation of fifty colored waiters, which waited on the dining-car department today, were informed there was no present intention of displacing the colored waiters with whites. Worcester, Mass., Aug. 14.—J. J. Feeley of Boston, counsel for Victor Breyer, manager of a bicycle track in Paris, attaches the property of "Major" Taylor for $6,000 today. The property is situated on Maywood street, and is owned by Mrs. Dora Taylor, the wife of the bicycle rider. The land is valuable and the beautiful residence has just been finished. "Major" owns a magnificent zoo and this is also on the estate. The attachment is placed for the Parisian race track owners, as "Major" signed a contract last year, saying that he would ride on the track this year. Since that NO. 47. time Taylor says that he has been sick and could not do himself justice in the race, and this is why he refused to ride at the track. The case is one for alleged breach of contract. A great legal battle is being carried on in New York City, all on account of Williams and Walker, the comedians, between Hurtig and Seamon sues to prevent Williams and Walker from appearing during the coming season under the management of Lew Dockstadter. The first named firm claims to have a contract with them extending to September,1908. In the litigation it develops that Williams and Walker have been paid salaries of $100 per week each and 50 per cent. of the profits. But Mr. Dockstadter proposes to do better than that. The outcome of the battle will be watched with much interest. Mr. Dockstadter is several times a millionaire and he proposes to spend quite a sum to carry his point. Learn to do something better than any one else, or as well, and your services will always be in demand. Here is the amazing blindness of our critics. The section which is dead against social equality is the same that practices it most. Every small Southern city has its district where these permanent relations are carried on; for we are not talking of promiscuous immorality, but of unwedded wifehood—in not a few cases unwedded solely because the law forbids. And what is the result? The gradual and somewhat rapid bleaching out of the Negro's color. Thousands have already passed the line. They have become pure Caucasians. The process will go on, and the farcical thing about it is that the section which pretends to stand most in terror of social relations is that which most supports them. Meanwhile the white race is not being darkened, and appears to be in no danger of it, while the black is steadily whitening, and is likely to whiten more and more by the preference of darker women for lighter men, until in time the black race will be eliminated from the continent. The present efforts of the South to attract European immigrants, especially from Italy, will increase this effect, for they have not learned to pretend a race antipathy. There never has been in the history of the world any race antipathy such as would prevent material relations. White men have shown no such antipathy in the United States or in Latin America, whether with Negroes or Indians, and equally in India, Cnina, Japan, or the Philippines do the multitude of mestizos and other half-castes support our casual remark that race antipathy is a cultivated vice.—The Independent.

Burlington Route 1 GREAT LAND DRAWING THE LOTTERY OPENS AT PROVO Twelve Hundred and Twenty-One Names the First Day—Utah Men Get More Than Half of the First Drawings. Denver, Colo., Aug. 18.—A special to the Republican from Provo, Utah, last night, says: Twelve hundred and twenty-one names of applicants for homesteads on the Untah Indian reservation were drawn from the box to-day by the commission consisting of W. A. Richards, commissioner of the General Land Office, Irving Howbert of Colorado Springs, and John Dern of Salt Lake City. Colorado and Utah shared honors in point of numbers drawn, as was to be expected. Roy Daniels, a young farmer, twenty-one years of age, secured the first chance. He is a native of Provo and has already started for the reservation to choose his homestead. Estimates of the value of Daniels' chance run as high as $10,000. Two numbers, one at Ogden, and one at Price, Utah, are high on the list. One of them, Daniel Burch of Ogden, has No. 19, and claims to have refused an offer of $9,000 for it. The other, Charles C. Clapper of Price, a Utah volunteer, has No. 34. He holds it at $5,000 and will leave immediately for the reservation to open a store. The drawing was attended by little excitement. There was a large crowd present when the drawing began this morning and Daniels, winner of the first choice, was carried through the streets on the shoulders of a shouting throng.' Interest began to lag early in the day, however, and in the afternoon only a few persons witnessed the drawing. Many of those who registered and remained in the state to await the outcome of the drawing went to Salt Lake and Ogden to pass the intervening time, so that the crowd here was confined almost wholly to residents of Provo and near by towns. Commissioner Richards and his associates appeared on the platform where the drawing took place early in the day. An army ambulance with the envelopes in mall pouches and guarded by a detail of government clerks followed at 8:45. The bales of tickets were placed on a long table, the proclamation of the President was read and the 27,650 envelopes placed in the big box, or "wheel," which was revolved a few times to mix the tickets.

Portland, Ore., Aug. 18.—The Transmississippi Congress opened here Wednesday and at once the Chinese exclusion law and its results came up for discussion. Governor Chamberlain of Oregon had hardly finished the perfunctory welcome to the congress when he launched an emphatic dictum to the effect that while the commercial interests of China are valuable, the influx of a horde of Chinese coolies into the Pacific coast states is too high a price to pay for it, and this, he said in effect, would be the result if the exclusion laws were not administered with the utmost stringency. Though not so emphatic in his declarations, Governor Mead expressed similar views on the subject. The representatives in the congress of Oregon and Washington heartily applauded this sentiment, but the Californians, whose metropolis is credited with almost a monopoly of the $100,000,000 import trade of China, were consummously silent. That the better classes of Chinese are discriminated against to an unwarranted extent, that a less stringent administration of the exclusion law, or if necessary, a limited reconstruction, is advisable, was urged by the speakers on oriental trade at the second day's session of the Transmississippi Commercial congress to-day. These ideas were brought out with especial force by Hon. John H. Barrett, United States Minister to Colombia, and Theodore B. Wilcox, president of the congress. Mr. Barrett, during the course of his address, emphasized the point that it is not to compel the introduction of Coolie labor which the Chinese are demonstrating against, but quite the contrary. The boycott is a remonstrance because the sons of noblemen, refined and well educated gentlemen, are held in the detention quarters by unwise immigration officials at our ports of entry for a period of ten days at a time, and compelled to herd with the lowest classes of their countrymen during that time. The congress listened to a number of addresses on various topics. RAILROAD STATISTICS. Gross Earnings Were Nearly Two Billion Dollars. Washington, Aug. 18.—The annual report of the Interstate Commerce Commission, giving the railroad statistics for the year 1904, shows that there were at the end of that year 297,073 miles of railroad in the United States. The number of railway corporations included in the report was 2,104. In the course of the year railway companies owning 5,600 miles of line were reorganized, merged, etc. The number of persons on the pay rolls of the railways in the United States, as returned for June 30, 1904, was 1,296,121, or 611 per 100 miles of line, a decrease for the year of 16,416, or 28 per hundred miles. The wages and salaries paid for the year amounted to $817,598,810. The par value of the amount of railway capital outstanding June 30, 1904 was $13,123,124,679, which represents a capitalization of $64,265 per mile. Of the total capital stock outstanding, $2,696,472,010, or 42.63 per cent., paid no dividends. The amount of dividends declared during the year was $221,941,049, being equivalent to 6.09 per cent. on dividend-paying stock. The gross earnings were $1,974,114,091, being $74,327,184 greater than for the previous year. Their operating expenses were $1,338,896,253, an increase of $91,357,401. The total of casualties to persons on the railways was 94,201, of which 10,046 represented the number of persons killed. Building Many Steel Mills. Pittsburg, Pa., Aug. 18.—Never before, it is said, has such activity been witnessed in the erection of steel mills, furnaces and shops as is now seen in Pittsburg and the Monongahela valley. The total cost of plants just completed, in course of erection or for which plans have been perfected, is more than $2,000,000 and the capacity of the iron, steel wire plants along the Monongahela river will me almost doubled when all plans are completed. Over 23,000 men will soon be given employment in these plants in addition to the present working force of almost 50,000 men. Coming to Colorado Next Year. Toronto, Ont., Aug. 18.—The convention of the International Typographical Union decided to-day to meet in Colorado Springs next year. Detroit, Mich., Aug. 18.—The Dramatic Order of Knights of Khorassan, which has been in convention here for three days, to-day decided to hold its next session in two years at Colorado Springs.

PREPARATIONS TO FEED THEM Tables at Railway Depots—Reunions and Campfires Every Day During the Encampment. Denver, Aug. 17.—During the national encampment of the Grand Army of the Republic in this city during the week beginning Monday, September 4th, the traffic will be so heavy on every railroad entering Denver that it is feared there will not be sufficient accommodations in the dining cars and railroad eating houses for the crowds of passengers. In order that none of its patrons may suffer from hunger the Burlington, through General Traffic Manager P. S. Eustis, has made unique arrangements. At every station with an eating house on the route of this line, benches the length of a depot platform, and chairs, will be installed on both sides of the track. Patriotic societies and church guilds will be in charge of these and will serve meals to the travelers who cannot be accommodated elsewhere. A fifty-minutes' stop will be made at all those stations, instead of the usual one of twenty minutes. The Missouri Pacific has adopted the same plan, and other lines will probably do so. There will be more reunions at the Denver encampment than at any previous one. The committee of reunions and campfires at the G. A. R. headquarters has provided places where members of regiments and battalions can meet and talk over old times. On the evenings of September 4th, 5th, 6th, 7th and 8th there will be campfires at Broadway park presided over by such prominent men as Senator Depew of New York, Bishop McCabe of Ohio and Bishop Moore. Those attending these campfires will be seated according to the regiments they served in during the war. If Colorado has no objection to yellow fever, General Cook, chairman of the executive committee of arrangements, has received word from Colonel Baquien, assistant adjutant general of the Department of Louisiana and Mississippi, that New Orleans will send a delegation of sixty to the encampment. General Cook has written Colonel Baquien that Colorado is perfectly immune from all yellow fever germs and assured the southerner that if the New Orleans veterans come to Denver they will not encounter any mosquitoes or other pests. Mrs. William McKinley, wife of the late President, has written her regrets at not being able to accept the invitation tendered her to be the guest of the thirty-ninth National G. A. R. encampment at Denver. On Sunday, September 3d, National Chaplain-in-Chief of the Grand Army J. H. Bradford will hold services at the First Congregational church. Rev. G. Monroe Markley, the pastor of the church, will deliver an address of welcome. The Great Land Lottery to Take Place at Provo. Provo, Utah, Aug. 16—Many visitors are in Provo to night to be present at the drawing for Uintah reservation lands which begins at 9 o'clock to morrow morning. Hundreds of persons from neighboring places are here and a big excursion from Colorado is due in the morning. In addition to these, it is expected that hundreds of men who registered and then proceeded to Salt Lake City and Ogden to pass the intervening time will return for the drawing. The town is making preparations for an immense crowd. Interest in the drawing has been greatly increased by the announcement that 86,480 acres that had been withdrawn have been restored to entry. This materially increases each applicant's chances for a farm. The drawing will be conducted by Land Commissioner Richards, Irving Howbert of Colorado Springs, and John Dorn of Salt Lake City. The platform upon which the drawing will take place has been erected in front of Proctor academy, and the box or "wheel" that will be used in drawing the envelopes is already in position. There will be 111 slips drawn one by one, and the list of numbers will then be posted. The drawing will continue at the rate of about 2,000 names a day until the entire 6,900 chances for entry have been drawn. NEW TARIFF SCHEME. Maximum and Minimum Rates to Be Available for All Nations. Chicago, Aug. 17.—"Dual tariff" in all probability is the war cry which will ring through the United States for some years to come, instead of the familiar call for reciprocity. The new slogan means the passage of a "maximum and minimum" tariff law, permitting the establishment of reciprocal trade relations with friendly foreign countries by the vote of Congress. Alvin H. Sanders, chairman of the executive committee of the national reciprocity conference, which opened its two days session here yesterday, is credited with originating the war cry. Mr. Sanders broached his suggestion to a few friends after the word reciprocity had received rather rough handling on the floor of the convention, and it met with approval among the delegates. They had assembled to discuss rectrocity trade relations with other countries, amendment of the Dingley tariff law, alterations of the interstate commerce laws and kindred matters. The West sent a large delegation, the great stock raising and farming industries of the West being especially well represented. Manufacturers from the eastern states are also strongly represented. The Venezuelan government has signed a $1,000,000 contract with a French firm for eight batteries of seventy-five millimetre campaign guns and four batteries of mountain guns of the same caliber.

The Mexican Central railroad has begun active preparations to change its fuel system from coal and wood to oil, and within a few weeks the company will erect seven huge tanks for storing oil at various points. At Kansas City recently John F.

Her injuries were not dangerous. Insurance Auditor Pierce has announced that the insurance department of Nebraska working with Wisconsin, Minnesota, Louisiana, Kentucky and Tennessee will on October 1st, begin an investigation of the affairs of the Equitable, New York Life and Mutual insurance companies in the states named. An order will be issued by the War Department shortly diminishing the term of service for army staff officers in the Philippines from three years to two years and a half counted from the time of sailing until the time of return. In this way the time during which those officers will serve will be two years and four months. Scenes unprecedented in a British naval port were witnessed at Portsmouth, England, on the occasion of the English and French naval review by King Edward. The French sailors for hours fraternized with the British tars, the sailors of the two nations parading streets arm in arm singing the "Marsellais" and the British national anthem. Orders from Washington have been received at the Philadelphia mint to cease operations and dispense with the services of the 600 employees, except those necessary to attend to the affairs of the institution when coinage has been stopped.

Farmer, which has been running a line of levels to the summit of Mount Whitney, in California, have completed its work and found the true height of the mountain to be 14,502 feet. While this shows Mount Whitney to be the highest measured mountain in the United States, it makes the true height twenty feet less than the figure that has been generally accepted. TO PROTECT WORKMEN DUTY OF CANAL COMMISSION Yellow Fever Not Serious On the Isthmus—Difficulty in Feeding Employees. New York, Aug. 14.—The care of 20,000 employees to work upon the Panama canal was declared by Chairman Shonts of the Panama canal commission, who arrived to-day from Colon, to be of the first importance, and to have precedence over the actual work of digging. Mr. Shonts said that there was in reality no yellow fever scare to speak of at the Isthmus and that the total number of cases in Panama during August up to the time of his sailing was only thirty, adding: "We went to Colon with Mr. Stevens, chief engineer, to see what had been done and what should be done. We found the first thing of importance to be housing and supplying 20,000 men. When our government first took hold of the canal every effort was directed toward making the dirt fly. I think this was a mistake. Time should have been given toward preparing for the task by making arrangements to take care of employees. It is true also that the laborers were not promptly paid and that matters were becoming congested on the railway and steamers. "The people of the isthmus are not forehanded, and with the large addition to the population caused by the coming of the canal laborers, the supplies for living were exhausted. This caused the prices to rise and soon the laboring class found that they could not earn enough to support themselves. To offset this sub-commissary stations were established to feed the laborers. "I made an arrangement with the president of Panama that unless prices became normal on the isthmus to continue this system of supplying the laborers. At Colon a large refrigerating plant is now being established, from which all supplies will be issued promptly, so that shortly all American employees will be able to obtain the same fare as they would at home. "There are about 10,000 employees on the isthmus now, including the laborers." Tacit Armistice Prevails. Portsmouth, N. H., Aug. 16.—It seems to be taken for granted by both the attaches of the Japanese and Russian missions that there will be no general battle in Manchuria while the peace negotiations are on. Oyama is known to be prepared to strike the moment the negotiations fail, and there may be minor skirmishing and outpost engagements while the troops are getting in position, but it is admitted on each side that if either Oyama or Linevitch should deliberately bring on a general engagement which might cost 50,000 or 100,000 lives, his country would be accused of bad faith in the negotiations here and would inevitably lose prestige in the eyes of the world. In the larger sense, therefore, it can be said that an armistice already exists in Manchuria. Should the negotiations be vainly prolonged and it became evident that they were to be fruitless, the advance of Oyama or Linevitch might be the signal for the final rupture. The unexpected attack on Port Arthur might be repeated below Harbin. Serious Famine in Spain. London, Aug. 16.—The Mall's dispatches with regard to the famine condition in Andalusia, Spain, state that the Spanish government has entirely failed to give relief and that as the money grants are absolutely inadequate to meet the necessities, the resources are completely exhausted. Hunger deaths are of daily occurrence. Theft and pillage are common and it is impossible to maintain order. Not a drop of rain has fallen in that district since March and the summer and autumn crops will be ruined unless rain falls soon or the government realizes the situation and takes steps to remedy the conditions. It is feared that the peasantry will take the law in their own hands and even now signs of open revolt are plentiful and exasperation at the government's inaction is becoming daily more pronounced. Denver Minister Goes East. Denver, Colo., Aug. 16.—His health impaired by living in a high altitude, Rev. James S. Montgomery yesterday announced that he would be obliged to resign from the pulpit at Trinity M. E. Church. His resignation is now in the hands of the trustees and he has requested that his successor be supplied within thirty days. He has already accepted a call from the Broad Street M. E. Church at Columbus, Ohio, and will take charge of the pastorate there about October 1st. Two months ago; while conducting the Sunday morning service at Trinity, Dr. Montgomery was overcome suddenly by an attack upon his heart. Since then he has experienced similar trouble and he has been advised to seek a lower altitude before the alment reaches an acute stage. King Edward in Austria. Ischl, Austria, Aug. 16.—King Edward, who is going to Marlenbad to take the cure, was the guest last night of Emperor Francis Joseph. The emperor met King Edward at Garden Gmunden and accompanied him bither. Covers were laid for twenty persons at the dinner. There is no political significance attached to the meeting of the two monarchs. King Edward will go to Marlenbad to-day. Aiding Chinese Boycott. Portland, Ore., Aug. 16.—The Telegram says: "Ten thousand dollars will be raised by the Chinese of Portland to aid in the boycott in China against American goods. Two meetings of the local colony have been held, at which it was decided that each Chinese in Portland should contribute at least $2 to carry on the campaign. The movement was instigated by a secret organization of San Francisco." The Elks WILL GIVE A Concert and Ball AT East Turner Hall THURSDAY, SEPT., 14TH.

Entered as second-class matter at the postoffice in the city of Denver. Colorado. At New York Wednesday, Aug. sixteenth the National Negro Business League convened in its sixth annual session with over two hundred delegates present. Since the perfection of this organization six years ago, business operated by Negroes throughout the country has met with such encouragement that it has been an item to marvel over. Those of us who are thrifty in the business world are steadily improving their conditions and year by year the National session of the League has volumes of good news to report to the world as to our business achievements. In another column of this paper will be found a communication from the pen of Rev J. E. Ford of Zion Baptist church in which he ridicules the Negro cluds that allow young girls to frequent their resorts. On account of the boldness of those who visit such places it has become quite noticeable to the general public and much gossip to such disgraceful acts have passed from the lips of many. Rev. Ford has sounded a key-note of warning and we hope that those who conduct clubs that allow our young girls to enter should take heed and not admit any of our girls who applies for admission. The young men of the race should remember that the "Uplift of a race" depends on the purity of its women, and any disgraceful act on the part of either sex only lowers our standard. Let those of us who are MEN be careful in the future and in any case where you can prevent a disgrace don't hesitate to do so. The communication, coming as it does, from one of the most talented and influential clergymen it should meet the support and approval of all who have the race at heart. WELCOME VETS AND VISITORS. Among the numerous national conventions that has its annual gatherings, there are none that should be accorded a more hearty greeting than that of the G. A. R. Encampment, and at its meeting here next month the citizens of Denver should accord them a welcome that will last as long as time. The preparations that have been and are being made, is by far the greatest that has ever been made by any city for this grand gathering. Gen. George W. Cook and his staff of committeemen have worked faithfully to make Denver the most attractive city that the veterans have ever visited. The city will be taxed to its fullest capacity to care for the visitors, and we all should see to it that their stay in Denver will be a most pleasant one. The Denver Republican of last Wednesday contained nn interview from Arthur Roscover, of North Carolina. This Southern gentleman whose mission to this and other North and Western states is to study the industrial situation. His interview plainly shows that he speaks of the Negro as being shiftless from a prejudice standpoint, as he classes the younger generation in one scope—comparing the shiftless with the thrifty. He advocates the deportment of the Negro from the South and suggests foreign labor as a substitute. Mr. Roscower fails to note the fact that the scarcity of labor in the South is due to the cruel treatment of the Negro by the whites. Notices are frequently posted by whitecappers warning Negroes to leave in a given length of time or forfeit their lives, and yet the "best(?)" white citizens complain of the scarecity of labor and won't protect those who are willing to work. The following is a letter read before the League from President Roosevelt: "Oyster Bay, L. I., August 12, 1905. my Dear mr. Scott—I wish all success to the Negro Business league. Your organization is absolutely out of politics, and in stimulating activity among your people and working to increase their efficiency in the industrial world, it is also doing far reaching work in the way of giving them a realizing sense of their responsibility as citizens and power to meet these responsibilities. I need hardly say that I put moral betterment above physical betterment. But it is absolutely impossible to do good work in promoting the spiritual improvement of any race unless there is a foundation of material well being, because this foundation necessarily implies that the race has developed the root qualities of thrift, energy and business sense. It is as true of a race as of an individual that while outsiders can help to a certain degree, yet the real help must come in the shape of self-help. "The success of your organization and the development among our colored fellow citizens of the very qualities for which your stand will mean more for the solution of the race problem than any philanthropic efforts merely from outside could possibly do. wishing you all success, I am, sincerely yours. "TheODORE ROOSEVELT." William Coffer, a 22-year-old colored youth, of 2023 Market street, St. Louis, Mo.. has perfected what he claims to be a new departure in the automobile line. Coffer, who is employed as bicycle repairer by M. C. Jameson, at 1105 Olive street, has been at work on his machine for the past eight weeks, during his spare time, and now has a car which he claims will maintain an economical speed of thirty-five miles an hour for four days without stopping. The machine, which is unique in appearance, was constructed entirely by Coffer, including the gasoline engine with which it is equipped. The carburetter is claimed to be a model of economy in the use of gasoline; any surplus that is not required to maintain the necessary speed being pumped back into the supply tank. The youth was born in St. Louis and attended school there until 17 years old. He then went to work in a machine shop, spending his leisure hours studying mechanical engineering by correspondence. The car in question is Coffer's third attempt, its two predecessors not coming up quite to the maker's expectations. The first one was sold for $250 and the latter he traded for material with which the present machine was constructed. The machine is not for sale, and Coffer states he has refused several flattering offers for it. He expects to obtain patients on the several special features it contains, and his plan is to manufacture cars of like design, if he can interest the right parties in the undertaking. Seedless Apples Are High. The first two seedless apples received from Colorado were sold in London at Covent Garden for thirty shilings each. Fought Like True Americans Methods of Preparing Tea Paid Debt with Knighthood Visible to Physicians' Eyes A detachment of six men were carrying dispatches from a command near Red river to Camp Supply. Of the six two were scouts, Amos Chapman and William Dixon. The others were cavalrymen. Far from any refuge they were surrounded by nearly 200 Indians. They sought shelter in a buffalo wallow and prepared to hold their ground. The attack came at 6 o'clock in the morning and the long, long day stretched before them. In the first rush four these six were wounded, Private Smith mortally. The other hurts were severe. They were hemmed in on all sides in an open plain, and were outnumbered almost twenty to one. One of the scouts, while a severe fire was being poured in at them at close range, succeeded in throwing up a scanty intrenchment with his bowle knife and his hands. His comrades held the Kiowas and Comanches off until this little help was ready as a refuge and they moved into the treuch, the wounded walking with brave and painful effort. Although Private Smith was wounded unto death, he sat upright in the An English traveler says in a letter to the London Times: "History tells us that, when coffee was first brought to the cities of western Europe the first makers of it were Turks. They roasted and ground the berries and served the liquor, as it is served to this day in the east, grits and all. We still drink coffee as we drank it then, with this difference, that we mostly omit the grits and drink an infusion instead of a decoction. It was not so with tea. No Chinaman was imported with the first pound of tea to teach us how to make and drink it. The consequence has been that we have never drunk tea in the Chinese way—that is, as a simple infusion. "At first there seems to have been great doubt, as to how to deal with the new herb. It is even said that it was sometimes boiled, with salt and butter and served up as a sort of spinach. The old phrase 'a dish of tea' seems to bear out this legend. Finally it came to be settled that the most wholesome and pleasant way to treat the tea leaf was to make it into a kind of sweet soup with sugar and milk or cream. I have personal In a recently published autobiography of Sir Henry Bessemer is told how, in 1833, when he was a youth of 20, he learned that the British government was losing about $500,000 a year through the use of forged stamps. He set about finding a remedy. In nine months he discovered how to forge government stamps with the greatest ease. This was a risky bit of knowledge for a struggling young man who wanted money wherewith to get married to the girl of his choice. But young Bessemer having invented forthwith the perforated stamp that is now known everywhere, went gagly to the government officials with the forgeries in his pocket to ask if they were genuine. When Sir Charles Presley passed upon them as genuine, Bessemer remarked that he knew they were forgeries—"simply because I forged them myself." Then he suggested a remedy. It was accepted. Bessemer was offered the post of superintendent of stamps—for plant and staff must be reorganized—at $3,000 to $4,000 a year. Young Bessemer went away happily "The medical man is on nodding terms with death at most street corners in our larger towns." A writer in this week's Lancet, pointing out that a doctor sees many things which are hidden from the average man's eye, sums up the position in this grim phrase. The medical man, he says, must remain a pathologist in the street, and he sees many unsuspected tragedies. Who else would suspect the sword of Damocles that is hanging above this red faced merchant, or see in his cheeks the signal of a fruit overripe? To the lay mild this portly person stands for all that is prosperous and confident, and his appetite is the envy of many of his dyspeptic friends—who will send wreaths to his grave. See the bluff and kindly manner in which he hands a shilling to a thin faced woman selling boot laces in the gutter. It is only the medical man who will dare to prophesy white hairs The modern crusade against consumption is no losing fight, but one in which every blow tells. It is encouraging to note, from the first annual report of the Committee on the Prevention of Tuberculosis, that the death rate from this deadly malady is decreasing quite rapidly, especially in those places where the public is being instructed and the necessary sanitary reforms made. The following statements recently made by Prof. Fisher of Yale show the encouraging rate at which tuberculosis is decreasing in this and other countries: "In England it declined in seventy years from thirty-nine per ten thousand of the population to thirteen. Although sanatoria did not exist in the early part of this period, England did have (and was the first country to introduce) consumption hospitals, which served like isolation wards to trench to conceal his crippled condition from the foe. From early morning until night this handful of five men was under almost constant fire, often at such short range that they could bring their pistols into play. Thus they fought for their own lives and defended their dying comrade, without food and for drink only a little muddy water mixed with their own blood. They killed more than a dozen Indians and wounded above a score. Relief came that night, but it was thirty-six hours after the first attack before medical aid and food could be given them at the nearest post. Private Smith died before camp was reached. Every man was wounded, Scout Chapman severely and Scout Dixon several times, but not dangerously. This band of four soldiers and two scouts were of those who had been fighting and marching for weeks amid the most dreadful privations. They were worn to skin and bone, but their souls were as "big as all outdoors" and they filinched at no odds under heaven. And by such men as these was this nation made.—Outing. knowledge of no country in Europe, but one, where tea is used as in China —Portugal, which got its knowledge of teammaking from a province of China, with which, at that time, no other nation of Europe was in contact. "It was while traveling on horseback with a guide in the wilder parts of Portugal away from shops and inns, where we had perforce to make experiments in the most economical use of the few ounces of tea and coffee that we could afford to carry with us, that we hit upon a discovery. Having no milk, we drank our tea, as most Portuguese drink theirs, as a simple infusion, sweetened with sugar. "I remembered to have read, I believe in the travels of the Abbe Huc, that, when the Chinese desire to be thrifty in the use of the finer and more expensive teas, they grind the leaf to a powder and use less for the infusion. We found that tea could be ground in a coffee mill as easily as coffee, that tea made with the powder is as good as or better than when made with the whole leaf and that the powder, as it naturally would, goes farther than the tea leaf." to tell his good luck to the girl of his choice. He explained to her the situation, how old stamps had been picked off documents and used again and how he had invented an elaborate plan to remedy this. "But surely," said the young lady, "if all the stamps had a date put on them they could not at a future time be used without detection." "This rather startled young Bessemer. But he devised a simple method of marking the date. The British government was delighted. The device was accepted. And as no change of machinery or staff was needed, Bessemer was informed that no superintendent of stamps would be appointed. Thus he had deprived himself of a job. Forty-five years later, after he had invented the "Bessemer process" of preparing iron and had made a great fortune, Bessemer wrote to Lord Beaconsfield, then prime minister, pointing out that he had saved the country millions without the reward of a penny. He no longer wanted money, but the government acknowledged the debt and paid it with a knighthood. for her long after her benefactor has been gathered to his fathers. Behind sunburnt cheeks—cheeks that make all these other jostling faces look pallid and worn by contrast—the medical man is quick to recognize the imprint of the health resort, other things pointing to an ominous diagnosis. The woman with the curious red spot upon her face affords him a somber chapter for reflection. Whether it be lupus or epithelioma or rodent ulcer, it will mean far greater obsession of bodily and mental pain than that of any broken limb. But, on the other hand, the doctor has compensations. He sees that the palid man with his arm in a sling will in a few weeks be able to dig or ride to hounds; that the hopeless cripple appealing to the charity of passersby is in no pain, and probably as well able to enjoy life as any one else.—London Mirror. prevent the spread of infection. These hospitals, together with the English love of out-of-door sports and the use of ventilating appliances and open fireplaces are probably the explanation of their growing freedom from consumption. "In Germany, during the past fifteen years, the death rate has declined from thirty-one to nineteen and one-half—a full third less. "In the United States the death rate in 1900, in the area for which registration has been well kept, was nineteen, as against twenty-six in 1890, showing a decline of twenty-five per cent in ten years. In New York city, owing largely to the work of Waring and Biggs, the death rate had diminished in twenty years nearly forty per cent. It is a conservative prediction that the next three decades will each see more remarkable improvement." Occulists Perscriptions Filled.

A clock in a nearby tower had just tolled off the hour of 4 as he arose unsteadily from the card table, where he had sat for three hours, stretched his weary limbs, bade his comrades good night and started in the direction of his home. After a half-hour's walk in which all the lamp posts and telegraph poles insisted on getting in his way, he arrived at his home, took out his bunch of keys, at last found the elusive keyhole and softly opening the door and discarding his shoes at the foot of the stairs, climbed heavenward on all fours. With catlike footsteps he crept across the threshold of his bedroom and proceeded to undress. He heard his wife move restlessly, which made him hurry, and in doing so he up set a chair. Stepping quickly over to the cradle in the corner, he commenced to rock it violently. "Is that you, John?" came his wife's voice from the bed. "Yes, dear," he replied. "Well, what in the world are you doing?" she asked. "Why, I'm rocking this blamed kid to sleep." "How long have you been there?" "Since 11:30." "Well, John, I think you had better get right into bed, as I have the child in here beside me; and, moreover, I've had him here ever since 11 o'clock last night."—Philadelphia Press. A.

A Key Note of Warning A short time ago a special committee from the People's Sunday Alliance took up with Mayor Speer and Chief of Police Delaney the case of colored clubs, where women and young girls were allowed to congregate and vaunt their shame, and for a time a quietus was put on these resorts by two of them going out of business and the others conforming to better moral regulations concerning the presence of women and girls frequenting their rooms, but the reform was only temporary and now the evil has broken out again with all of its old debauchery and shame and calls for public condemnation and police interference. It is not the purpose of the Alliance or any member of it to interfere with any man's legitimate business or occupation, but we feel that it is to the interest of parents, the public and the police to see that infamous dives of vice and rendezvous of harlotry are not tolerated in our midst even under the guise of a social club and when run by our erstwhile respectable citizens. Denver, fair and beautiful, is no longer a frontier town, to tolerate resorts where social vice and invitation to reckless living and prostitution are made a part of its stock in trade. Many respectable people are coming to the West to make their homes, earn a livelihood, raise and educate their children; and any resort intended to seduce their children or debauch their wives and daughters should meet with instant destruction. Every nation seeks to protect and safeguard its women. The wine rooms have been declared unconstitutional by the highest court of the state, and yet in certain portions of the city resorts make it possible for women and young girls of our race to gather and debauch themselves in the presence of low characters and vicious elements until virtue and shame are strangers to them forever. The public, the church and the newspapers have a duty to the young people of this community, and especially to the women and girls, and that duty is to point out to them the pitfalls and danger places, where honor and virtue are sacrificed on the altar of vice and revelry. The young man or woman who expects to retain the respect of his fellow-men cannot afford to be a seldom visitor, let alone a frequenter, of these dens of shame. Secondly, parents are warned to take more careful oversight over their boys and girls, and see and know where they go and how they spend their evenings. It is not to our credit that we are raising up in these days vags and loafers, gamblers and loose characters, instead of industrious, sober and respectable citizens. Resort keepers owe it to themselves and to the parents and the public and to the success of their business to see that those under age do not come into their places to carouse and drink and spend their time. The misery caused by these clubs to parents is most heartrending, and unless a stop is put to this the whole community will be unsafe, for when the giddy life of the sport undermines the young, every moral restraint is gone, honest work is impossible, and the outlook of life is tinged with vice and criminal impulses are encouraged. The clubs may have their sphere, but is certainly not to flaunt shame and vice in full view of the young, and we wish at this time to sound a note of warning to the keepers of these resorts before more drastic measures are taken and power is brought to bear to again put these places under police surveillance.

Monetary System of China In Defense of Missionaries In Defense of Missionaries Barricade in Street Riots Barricade in Street Riots Kindness Wasted on Mules Kindness Wasted on Mules Snatch Moments of Sleep Snatch Moments of Sleep Emile Bard, a Frenchman, has an interesting chapter on the money of China in his book, "Chinese Life in Town and Country." He explains that the unit of Chinese money is the tael, which is not a coin, but a weight of silver—the ounce, of which there are sixteen to the catty, and 1,600 to the picul. The commercial tael is that of Canton, which should weigh 37.783 grains, but usually weighs 37.58. Then there is the tael of Shanghai, which weighs 36.6, and the revenue tael, used in valuing imports and exports, and each large city has its own, that of Tietsin worth from 4 to 6 per cent more than that of Shanghai. Business estimated in taels is carried on by the use of Spanish dollars or silver ingots. The former are weighed and stamped by every south China merchant and have to be reminted continually. The ingots of silver are cut from bars into pieces that the operator estimates will weigh 50 taels. Naturally each one who handles them weighs them. "Banks store their money in cellars, in boxes carried back and forth by coolies," says M. Bard. "This explains the item of transportation which is deducted from the face of a A shallower and more vulgar accusation against missionaries, revivalists, and preachers generally is that while the poor and the suffering are all around and near them, they live on the fat of the land, are well clothed, well housed, raise families and accumulate property. Such assertions are broadly false. There is scarcely a nook or corner of the earth where consecrated men are not struggling in penury to uplift dense communities. This fact could be clearly elucidated by Bishop Restarick, if he chose to publish his knowledge of conditions in the Hawaiian islands alone. It is eluciated by local missionary experiences for three-quarters of a century. But suppose it were true, as in a few cases it is true, that specially qualified ministers receive large salaries—what then? Does that circumstance throw even a shadow on their sincerity? Why should they not be paid for their fruitful labors in raising human beings from sin or misery? As a well-known Honolulu attorney said the other day—if an able lawyer is well The men and women who erected the barricades around which so much blood flowed during the recent riots in Lodz, Russia, were following time-tried precedents. For the street barricade is the first thing which an otherwise defenseless population puts up when it means to fight authority. History has been made at barricades. Nearly 600 years ago Paris, the home, apparently, of this sort of fighting, barricaded its streets against the future Charles V., and two and a quarter centuries later resorted to similar defense, when 4,000 mercenaries were marched in by Henry III. to overwea the "council of sixteen." The barricades were terribly successful then, for the soldiery would have been annihilated had not the court consented to negotiation in time to save the remnants of the 4,000. During the three days' revolution in Paris seventy-five years ago the populace showed that it had not forgotten. Men, women and children worked to build ramparts in the streets, tearing up the roads and pulling down build- Notwithstanding the graphic, picturesque and vigorous language the mule driver was using, he was a man who evidently had seen better days, and when the elderly matron with the shocked and grieved expression of countenance reproved him for his reckless style of talk and suggested that he use kindness on the animals, he apologized. "I'll try your recipe, ma'am," he said. "Come, Bellatric. Come, Betelgueuse. This leisurely manner of yours is unsatisfactory, you know. Kindly infuse a little more animation into your movements. You are lagging behind the procession. Are you not aware, my amiable quadrupeds, that this consignment of merchandise is due at its place of destination two hours hence? Allow me to direct your attention to the circumstance that at your present rate of locomotion we shall be one hour or more behind our schedule in arriving. Pardon me, Bellatric, but there is no necessity for agitating your caudal appendage. There are no flies at this The question of sleep is again being discussed, and some people are saying we have a great deal too much of it, and others aver we do not have enough. It is hardly a matter on which you can lay down a rule, because some people require so much more sleep than others, writes J. Ashby-Sterry in the Graphic. When this same subject was under review some few years ago I can recall that I wrote at considerable length with regard to it, and I came to the conclusion that very few people had too much sleep, but they had too much of it at a time. And I pointed out that in this manner we should do well to imitate that exemplary animal the dog. He does not Chinese check when it is cashed at a bank. One can judge of the complications consequent upon this system of conversion of tails of different values into ingots of different weight and purity, especially as assayers of different localities refuse to honor the stamps of other cities." In places where the dollar is not used small payments are made by cutting up an ingot. "The scale used in weighing these fragments has two sets of markings; one for receipts and one for payments." China's national coin is the "cash," a round copper coin with a square hole through it. The cash or sapak date from at least 2300 B. C. Eight pounds' weight of cash makes a dollar. Years ago an emperor decided to double his funds by giving copper cash double its value; in certain parts of the country this performance is still in effect. In other parts 77 or 85 cash are counted as 100. In Honan the Chinese go to market with two kinds of money—one real, the other counterfeit. Some articles are bought with one, some with the other; certain articles have two prices—one in good money, one in bad. compensated for serving his clients, why should not an attorney retained for the Almighty be permitted to live and support his family in comfort? "The laborer is worthy of his hire." A true minister needs and should have an equivalent for his work, and be relieved from the strain of anticlated or realized poverty. He should also be enabled to provide for those near and dear to him. Usually his charities are unostentatious, numerous and unheralded. He should also have good food, because, among other things, he is fitted to enjoy it. The revival that started in Wales has spread like an accumulating wave over christendom and is filling its mission in this distant settlement of the extreme West.

Louis Philippe fell when the first barricade of the revolutionists was run up. There was a terrible fight to follow, in comparison with which that at Lodz was insignificant. Sixteen thousand people were killed or wounded and half as many taken prisoners. The damage done amounted to $6,000,000. When Louis Napoleon seated himself, he remembered barricades and their power, and determined that he would have none of them. He made wide boulevards, which cannon could sweep with grapeshot, macadamized the roads and did all that he could think of to make the barricading of the streets impossible. But the days of the commune showed that the old art was by no means gone, nor the possibilities exhausted. London also has had its barricades. On the occasion of the funeral of Queen Caroline, in 1821, the crowd barricaded the route by which the body was to have been smuggled out of the capital. season of the year.

When he has nothing better to do he slumbers and fills up all sorts of odd moments with snatches of sleep. This is an example we should do well to follow. I remember the late Charles Matthews telling me of the advantage he derived from forty winks. He said there arrived certain periods, where ever he happened to be, that he felt compelled to doze off for just five minutes. "And this five minutes," he said, "I must have it.

DOWERY, Prop. 2645 Welton St. Phone 821 Black BIG TRACT RESTORED BIG TRACT RESTORED TO UINTAH LAND RESERVATION President Modifies His Proclamation and Cancels Withdrawal of Eighty-Five Thousand Acres. Washington, Aug. 16.—The President has modified his proclamation of the 8th inst. withdrawing from entry certain lands in the Uintah Indian reservation and has restored about $85,000 acres. Following is the Interior Department's statement of the action taken: "The act of March 3, 1905, provides 'that before the opening of the Uintah Indian reservation' the President may 'set apart and reserve any reservoir site or other lands necessary to conserve and protect the water supply for the Indians or for general agricultural development.' Accordingly, the United States Geological Survey, after due investigation, made a report to the secretary of the Interior recommending that certain described lands, covering over 200,000 acres, including a large quantity of agricultural land, be reserved under said provision of law. "Upon this recommendation the acting secretary of the interior requested the President to issue his proclamation making such reservations, and accordingly the President issued his proclamation of August 3, 1905. Subsequently, complaints having reached the department that the said agricultural lands properly should not be included in said reservation, Mr. Ryan, the acting secretary, took the subject up for further consideration, and directed the United States Geological Survey to make a supplemental report stating specifically whether the reservation of these agricultural lands is necessary for 'the conservation and protection of a water supply.' This supplemental report has been made and shows that the reservation of these lands is not necessary for that purpose, but that they were included in the survey's original report on the assumption that the act authorized their reservation for 'agricultural development,' which was specifically stated in it. The acting secretary decided that their reservation was authorized only if 'necessary to conserve and protect the water supply,' and requested the President to release them from reservation, which was done to-day by supplemental proclamation, and that now these agricultural lands are subject to disposition in the manner provided by the law." TWO MORE ARTICLES Peace Envoys Make Further Progress in Their Work. Portsmouth, N. H., Aug. 16.—The crisis in the peace negotiations upon which the eyes of the world are fastened is approaching rapidly and the end of this week or the first of next at the latest should witness the deadlock and the end, if the conference is to go to pieces. Two more of the twelve articles, numbers four and six, were disposed of yesterday. Article four consists of mutual pledges to observe the integrity of China and the policy of the "open door," for the commerce of all nations, and article six covers the surrender of the Russian leases to the Liaotung peninsula, Port Arthur, Dalny and the Blonde and Elliott islands. To article four both parties gave ready assent, and the official statement of the adoption of that article took care to state that it was agreed to "unanimously." Article five, the consideration of which was postponed until later, provides for the cession of the island of Saghalin. Discussion appearing useless at this stage on account of the firm negative given in the Russian reply, it was decided, upon the motion of the Japanese, to defer its discussion, thus revealing the Japanese intention of postponing to the end the life and death struggle. This is the usual procedure followed in diplomatic negotiations, enabling the negotiators to come to an accord upon all possible points before tackling the crucial issues, and the fact that the Russians acquiesced in the proposition shows that they too are as careful and as anxious as are the Japanese that the world should not accuse them of being responsible for precipitating the break, if break there is to be, and wrecking the conference. This in itself is a hopeful sign. Besides, by postponing the burning question to the end, the psychological moment for bargain and compromise arrives. Then hurriedly the last trump cards and the game is done. Eagles' Convention Welcomed. Denver, Aug. 16.—The convention of the Fraternal Order of Eagles took up its work yesterday. The public reception in the morning at the Tabor Grand opera house was an occasion which set the Eagles on the wing and the officers and members of the grand aerie were accorded a great ovation. About 100 officers of the grand aerie occupied the stage. Mr. Bell made the opening welcome address, making a very pleasing show of hospitality to the delegates. Governor McDonald was the first speaker, delivering a few brief remarks in an impressive manner. He was applauded by the delegates and Dr. W. H. Sharpey followed with a few observations of a fraternal nature. Mayor Speer welcomed the guests in a happy manner. He chose a light, facetious tone in addressing the delegates, which met with ready appreciation and closed with an invitation to all "tired" Eagles to come to Colorado to live at some future time, and stating that the keys of the city are always at their disposal. Grand Worthy President Pelletier thanked the state and city officials for their welcome and the local aerie for its earnest work in caring for the convention. Will Return to Kansas Washington, D.

Grand Canon Aerial Tramway The gigantic gorge of the Grand canon of the Colorado is soon to be spanned at its widest point by an aerial tramway which will carry passengers at a height of 8,000 feet from the bottom of the Bright Angel trail to the top of Buckskin plateau. From this eminence the Coconino country, Arizona, may be seen plainly, with California and Nevada to the westward, Utah on the north and Colorado and New Mexico away to the east. Of all the expeditions which have been made to the Grand canon from the very bottom of the gorge to the top of Buckskin or Kalben plateau, reached by a circuitous twelve-mile trail, none has disclosed the wonders of scenery which a ride on the aerial will offer. By the anchoring of a cable some 500 feet in length to the wall of rock on either side of the gorge on which will be operated a cage or car and the further improvement of the trail on the north side of the huge crevice it is proposed to transfer tourists from the bottom of the Bright Angel trail to the top of the plateau. To build this aerial tramway a company has just been incorporated at Kanab, Utah. From the height which tourists will attain one may locate by means of a powerful glass the various cities of southern California. Much of the Mormon state could be seen in this way, while the dry desert air of Arizona would permit splendid long distance views of that territory Surveys and an estimate place the cost at about $10,000. In connection with the establishment of the aerial tramway the company and southern Utahans generally are working to have a large portion of country about Buckskin mountains set aside for a national park or reserve. 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 $ \frac{3}{4} $ -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. White—That large young lady is Miss Minnie Fish. Bright—She looks more like a whale than a minnow. Same as with everything else. Men differ; men's things differ.

SHOT BY AN OFFICER Desperate Assault In Basement of County Court House Is Met by Officers With Revolvers. Denver, Colo., Aug. 15.—A Boulder, Colorado, special to the News last night says: Five pistol shots rang out from the basement of the court house shortly after 6 o'clock this evening, and a great crowd was soon surging through the building. Near the entrance to the cage in the jail lay the body of Louis Cinkus, who was shot through the right breast and almost instantly killed. In a cell was James Runyan, shot in the fleshy portion of the right leg. In another cell, pale with fear, was Charles Schrode, another prisoner. He narrowly escaped being hit by a hall of bullets fired through the grating by Sheriff Bartell and Deputy Sheriff Maderia. Which of the officers did the killing is not known, but both say they fired as long as they could see anyone to fire at. A statement of the cause leading to the tragedy was given out by Sheriff Bartell, Under Sheriff Thorne and Deputy Sheriff Maderia to-night. It is as follows: "One of the prisoners gave us to understand this afternoon that the three men, Charles Schrode, James Runyan and Louis Cinkus, were going to break jail this evening at supper time, even if they had to kill Under Sheriff Thorne, fed them, to do it. The sheeriff asked Deputy Sheriff Maderia to be present with him when Thorne fed the prisoners at the regular time. When Thorne was coming out with the tray of dishes after feeding the prisoners the three men jumped on him and, with the leg of a table and the two side pieces of a washboard, knocked him down. "Thereupon Sheriff Bartell and Deputy Madera began shooting at the prisoners, resulting in the immediate death of Cinkus, who was shot in the right breast just about the right nipple. 'Cinkus was in jail on a charge of highway robbery and awaiting trial at the October term of the District Court. James Runyan, at the same time, was shot in the right leg, but the bullet inflicted a flesh wound only, from which he will recover. Runyan is an inmate of the jail on the charge of an assault to murder, and also awaiting trial at the October term of the District Court. Charles Schrode is in jail on a charge of horse stealing, and is considered one of the most dangerous of the prisoners. "When Thorne started to leave the cage he was assaulted by the prisoners, felled to the floor, and then the shooting began. The under sheriff crawled beneath the table during the fusillade, and so escaped being struck. He escaped without any other injury than a bump on his head due to the blow by one of the prisoners. After he was shot Cinkus reeled into a cell and later staggered out into the corridor, fell and expired. "Coroner Buchheit was on the scene within ten minutes, as well as Dr. T. B. Trovillon, the county physician. The coroner took the body to the morgue and will hold an inquest tomorrow. Cinkus was brought here from Louisville, charged with robbery. The evidence at the preliminary examination was that he held up a man and robbed him of his watch and money in the rear of a saloon in Louisville. He was a man of large frame and equal to any physical exertion. Runyan shot his father-in-law, Charles Mellin, near Longmont, a month ago. The wound was in the leg, but nearly caused Mellin's death. Schrobe, who was the real ring-leader in several attempts at jail delivery, has an extensive police history in connection with horse stealing. He also has a penitentiary record, and is regarded as a tough man. Telegraphy on Engines. Chicago, Aug. 15.—The experiments made with wireless leegraphy on engines running over the tracks of the Chicago & Alton railroad has proved so successful that the management of the road has taken steps to equip all the engines of the company with the apparatus. Under the new system adopted each engine carrying its own wireless signal apparatus constitutes the center of a movable block traveling with the train. Near the engineer in the cab is an indicator which keeps him informed of the conditions within the blocks where he is the center. If a train approaches within two miles to the rear a green light shows on the indicator and a warning bell calls the attention of the engineer. If the train is to the front a red light flashes and a bell rings. The signals are reciprocal and the engineers on both trains receive them at the same instant. Cattle Mange Disappearing. Denver, Colo., Aug. 15.—Dr. Charles G. Lamb, state veterinarian, returned yesterday from an extended trip in the eastern part of the state, where he has been investigating mange among the cattle. He found several bunches that were affected and some reported affected that are really all right. Dr. Lamb reports less mange at the present time among Colorado cattle than for many years past. This is owing to the new law which gives the board of stock inspection authority to dip cattle and charge the cost to the owners where they are negligent about acting. The laws are more stringent in other ways also, so that the disease is being stamped out. Proposed Big Game Preserve. Salt Lake City, Aug. 15.—President Roosevelt will be asked to set aside a tract of land about fifty miles square in northern Arizona to be used as a national game preserve. Senator Smooth, Senator Sutherland and Congressman Howell of Utah will join with Delegate Smith and other leading citizens of Arizona in asking for the establishment of the preserve.

Pinkham's Vegetable Compound over the diseases of womankind is not because it is a stimulant, not because it is a palliative, but simply because it is the most wonderful tonio and reconstructor ever discovered to act directly upon the generative organs, positively curing disease and restoring health and vigor. Marvelous cures are reported from all parts of the country by women who have been cured, trained nurses who have witnessed cures and physicians who have recognized the virtue of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, and are fair enough to give credit where it is due. If physicians dared to be frank and open, hundreds of them would acknowledge that they constantly prescribe Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound in severe cases of female ills, as they know by experience it can be relied upon to effect a cure. The following letter proves it. Dr. S. C. Brigham, of 4 Brigham Park, Fitchburg, Mass., writes: "It gives me great pleasure to say that I have found Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound very efficacious, and often prescribe it in my practice for female difficulties. My oldest daughter found it very beneficial, and my youngest daughter is now taking the age and my youngest daughter is now taking the age and weakness, and is surely gaining in health and strength. "I freely advocate it as a most reliable specific in all diseases to which women are subject, and give it honest endorsement." Women who are troubled with painful or irregular menstruation, bloating (or flatulence), leucorrhea, falling, inflammation or ulceration of the uterus, ovarian troubles, that bearing-down feeling, dizziness, faintness, indigestion, nervous prostration or the blues, should take immediate action to wad off the serious consequences, and be restored to perfect health and strength by taking Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, and then write to Mrs. Pinkham, at Lynn, Mass., for further free advice. No living person has had the benefit of a wider experience in treating female ill. She has guided thousands to health. Every suffering woman should ask for and follow her advice if she wants to be strong and well.

Up the Jungfrau by Rail. After two years of ceaseless labor, carried on winter and summer, the last blow of the pick has been made in the excavation of the permanent way for the Jungfrau railway. The altitude of the terminus is 9,500 feet. Even the stolid navvies, as they emerged from the tunnel boring as the last dynamite charge shattered the last wall of earth, were dazzled by the contrast between the subterranean gloom from which they had just emerged and the vast expanse of dazzling whiteness of the sea of ice. In a few weeks now the railway will be in full working order.—London Globe. The Latest Frog Story. From Wilkesbarre, Pennsylvania comes the following: Mrs. Bridget Mangan of Minnoka, near here, has coughed up two frogs and is enjoying relief after an illness of several weeks. Physicians are puzzled by her case. Early in the spring she was attacked by severe pains in the stomach which would not yield to any treatment. Six days ago this pain was succeeded by a steady and overpowering thirst. Dr. Haggerty, in the hope of alding her, gave her an emetic and to his surprise she was relieved of a small frog. Yesterday the thirst began again. He gave her another emetic and this time a frog four inches long was evicted. She has not had pain since. Dr. Haggerty believes she swallowed the frogs in drinking water when they were tiny tadpoles. He will send the frogs to the New York Medical University. HEART RIGHT Life Insurance Companies will not insure a man suffering from heart trouble. The reason is obvious. This is a serious matter to the husband or father who is solicited for the future of his dear ones. Often the heart trouble is caused by an unexpected thing and can be corrected if taken in time and properly treated. A man in Colorado writes: "I was a great coffee drinker for many years, and was not aware of the injurious effects of the habit till I became a practical invalid, suffering from heart trouble, indigestion and nervousness to an extent that made me wretchedly miserable myself and a nuisance to those who witnessed my sufferings. "I continued to drink Coffee, how ever, not suspecting that it was the cause of my ill-health, till, on applying for life insurance I was rejected on account of the trouble with my heart. Then I became alarmed. I found that leaving off coffee helped me quickly, so I quit it altogether and having been attracted by the advertisements of Postum Food Coffee I began its use. "The change in my condition was remarkable, and it was not long till I was completely cured. All my actions vanished. My digestion was completely restored, my nervousness disappeared, and, most important of all, my heart steadied down and became normal, and on a second examination I was accepted by the life insurance Co. Quitting Coffee and using Postum worked the cure." Name given by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich. There's a reason, and it is explained in the little book, "The Road to Wellville," in each pkg.

Yellow fever is described by the doctors as a "specific infectious disease contracted by exposure to infected localities and is characterized by a single febrile paroxysm of short duration and by a tendency to passive hemorrhages from mucous surfaces, especially from the stomach, producing 'black vomit.'" The disease is unknown in Asia, is only occasionally seen in southern Spain and Portugal, and on the west coast of Africa. The American tropics and sub-tropics are the stamping ground of the malady. Inhabitants of this country north of the Gulf states need have little fear of yellow fever, although small epidemics have occurred in Atlantic seaboard cities as far north as Boston and in the Mississippi valley up to St. Louis. The most malignant forms of the disease were found in Cuba until the American occupation conquered the pestilence there. The great yellow fever epidemics in the United States were in 1973, 1797, 1798, 1802, 1853, 1867, 1873 and 1878. The last was the most extended. It invaded 132 towns and wiped out 15,934 human lives out of a total number of cases exceeding 74,000. Gratitude Well Expressed. Sault Ste. Marie, Mich., Aug. 14th. Mr. C. L. Smith, painter and decorator, whose home is at 309 Anne street, this city, makes the following statement: "I was laid up with some kind of pains. Some said it was Lumbago, other Sciatica and others again Rheumatism. A few of my friends suggested that it was lead poison, but whatever it was it gave me a great deal of pain; in fact, almost completely crippled me. I had to use two canes to walk about, and even then it was a very painful task. "A friend advised me to try Dodd's Kidney Pills and I began the treatment. After I had used the first box I was able to throw away one of the canes and was considerably improved. The second box straightened me up so that I could go about free from pain without any assistance, and very soon after I was completely cured, well and happy, without a pain or an ache. Dodd's Kidney Pills seemed to go right to the spot in my case and they will always have my greatest praise." "What is the secret of your success?" asked the very young man. "In buying," said the old horse dealer, "I look sharp, and in selling I look just as ignorant as I can." TORTURED BY ECZEMA.

Select velvet ribbon, second size, in the desired color, and if possible with different shadings of the color, to be as natural as possible. Cut the ribbon into five pieces two and a half inches long; fold each piece of ribbon in half and gather the five pieces together, fastening the joined ends firmly by a wire. The loose ends should be cut in a point. Now cut ten pieces three and a half inches long. Fold as before and fasten them around the center petals. Add as many more petals as necessary, making each succeeding row a trifle longer than the last, until the flower is large enough. If the flower is to have the stiff appearance of the real chrysanthemum, double pieces of velvet must be used for each petal and a fine wire thrust between the two ribbons. The satin side of the petal is lightly covered with photographers' paste, a wire laid down the center, and the upper ribbon firmly pressed on it, velvet side up, of course. Before the petal has quite dried, run the ribbon up on the wire, thus getting that crinkly effect of the chrysanthemum. Only a few of the petals need to be treated in this way to gain a stiff effect. Narrow liberty satin ribbon in the desired shades is effective—Montreal Herald Attractive in White Flannel. Blouse of white flannel made with groups of stitched plaits fastened with little straps of the material and buttons. The center plait and the collar are also ornamented with buttons. The sleeves are full at the top, fitted below, and trimmed like the blouse. Making Velvet New. Velvet cannot be sponged or pressed or even dipped in gasoline, and unless you thoroughly understand the proper method of cleaning it you had better not make the attempt, but send it to some cleaner. There is one means by which it can be accomplished successfully at home. Try water and spirits of ammonia in equal quantities, and rub the velvet with a brush dipped in the liquid. In doing this be very particular that it does not become soaked in any one spot. When all stains have been removed raise the pile of the velvet by holding it over a hot flatiron on which a wet cloth has been folded. Use a brush very lightly for those places that are too much flattened for the iron alone to renovate them. Here's a New Japanese Ead. A decorative and useful fabric for which there is a growing demand and for which we are indebted to the Japanese is the grass cloth used for covering walls. This comes in all the standard colors, is a yard wide, and costs $4 for a roll of eight yards. The general effect when on the wall is very much that of burlap, except that it is of finer weave and has almost a glossy appearance. It is made of Chinese grass, which is woven in the same manner as a loose weave cloth or woolen goods. A very thin coating of rice paper is pasted with infinite care on the back of the cloth to give it body, and also to make it possible to attach it to a wall, the grass cloth itself being of such a fiber that it will not hold paste. For Formal Affairs. Here is an ideal suggestion for a dressy afternoon gown. The material employed is pale gray collienne and the skirt is made with a single box glait in front and back, with groups of side plaits over the hips. A decidedly novel and attractive jacket opens on the shoulders and is joined by narrow straps of the material and tiny cut-steel buttons, matching those used at the closing down front. This is worn over a rich blouse of embroidered batiste, whose sleeves are formed of four flouces of embroidery. The chic little turban is pale gray Neapolitan, with black velvet band and a bunch of white tips. Canned Beets. Select medium sized beets, cook until tender and remove the skins while still hot. Put the whole beets in glass jars with one teaspoonful of granulated sugar, fill the jars with cold vinegar and seal them tight. Spices can be added when they are served if desired. Being whole, the beets can be served in any form. Here's a Pretty Scheme. A clever little device for concealing the collar bones of the thin girl, at the same time giving her the satisfaction of a decollete neck, is to cut the gown with a point instead of with STREET GOWNS FROM PARIS. the regulation round neck. The "V" should start about three inches above the collar bones, quite concealing those ugly "salt cellars" which make life—and full dress—a misery to the bony. The "V" may often be bordered with black velvet ribbon with excellent effect. A deep point of the kind indicated comes quite low enough to be considered decollete, while it mercifully hides defects and looks pretty at the same time. Boudoir Confidences All tailor-made dresses have velvet collars and cuffs. Hats are growing sensibly larger, with a hint of higher crowns. With dresses of soft tan, pearl grey and the palest champagnes, long gloves of exactly the same shades are worn, instead of white. Even bathing suits show the strong influence of checks upon summer styles. For check taffeta—black and white—make some stunning suits. Rose color seems coming to the fore for light cloth tailor-made dresses. And it is extremely effective with the sheer blouses that everybody is wearing. Voile Is All the Go. The popular material is voile of so sheer a quality as to closely resemble chiffon. It is striped, waved, checked, dotted and embroidered in all the delicate shades, and it almost invariably made over white taffeta. In dark colors—dark blues and browns are shown, and these are also made over white and trimmed usually with taffeta of the same color as the gown. The girdles are of the voile, tightly drawn. Soft silk, an entirely new fabric resembling eolienne, is another popular material. It comes in all colors and is either checked, striped or dotted. Taffetas are striped and of light weight. Orange Sirup Select well ripened, juicy oranges and grate the outside peel from them. Cut up the fruit and press out the juice, and to each quart of orange juice add one pint of water and six pounds of sugar with one-half of the grated peel. Set over the fire, stirring well, and gently simmer until the sugar is dissolved. Strain and set away in a cold place for use. Pudding bags should be made of heavy jean. Never wash raisins that are to be used in sweet dishes. It will make the pudding or cake heavy. A few drops of glycerin put in the fruit jars the last thing before sealing them helps to keep preserves from molding on top. Rancid butter, boiled in water with a pinch of charcoal, will be divested of its rancidity and may be used for cooking purposes. Silver should not be put in woolen STREET GOWNS The gown at the left is of mauve taffeta. The full skirt, slightly draped in front, is trimmed at the bottom with ruches of the material forming a fancy design. From house collars, covers of a large shoulder collar, composed of shaped ruffles of the silk edged with mauve velvet and headed by bands of lace. It is finished around the slightly low ruches with the velvet fastened with loops and buckles. This velvet also borders the fronts opening over a frill, of lace, then crosses below, the ends fastened with buckles to the wide corset girdle, which is also of velvet. The sleeves, draped, are finished at the elbows with bands of the velvet and lace ruffles. bags, as the sulphur in this cloth tarnishes the metal and neither should rubber be placed near silver. The addition of lemon juice to the water in which rice is boiled will increase the whiteness and the grains will readily separate thus treated. Sweetmeat Pudding. Take one ounce each of orange peel, lemon peel and citron. Slice them very thin. Line a dish with puff paste, lay the peel at the bottom, mix the yolks of seven eggs with the whites of two eggs, adding five ounces of sugar. Pour it over the sweetmeats. Put it into an oven well heated and bake thirty-five minutes. Attractive Simple Bodice Tokio crepe and insertion form this attractive bodice for a young girl. The yoke fits firmly over the shoulders and allows a becoming blouse without unbecoming fullness about the neck, while a long puff and tight cuff effect a smart sleeve. The round neck has been provided for in the pattern, and, if one desires, the entire yoke and long sleeves can be discarded, short puffs taking the place of the latter, and a deep bertha replacing to a certain extent the former. Meslinette in dull blue, mousseline in gray, or crepe leda in rose, are suggested as appropriate materials, while among thin fabrics Egyptian tissue and silk mull will be, found effective. For the Summer Hop Among a collection of gowns worn by a popular belle at Newport is one for evening functions made of pale green collienne. Tiny ruffles of white lace and green velvet ribbon run from shoulder to waistline, on each side of the decollete waist, which has a front of silver embroidered green silk and ruffles of lace at set intervals. Small ruffles of lace form the shoulder caps of sleeves and a band of embroidered silk serves as a finish. Self-tone chiffon velvet is used for the girdle. A cluster of lace ruffles is set in at each seam at foot of circular skirt. Useful for Cuting. A coffee colored pongee is a useful thing to buy for an outing. It is made with full skirt laid in three or four deep tucks around the foot. There are embroidered dots in navy blue and there is a deal of English eyelet work. Big holes are profusely embroidered in blue wash silk. A deep blue silk petticoat is worn underneath the dress, letting the color show through. The waist is a mass of tucking and navy blue embroidery. FROM PARIS. The other gown is of black cloth. The skirt is made of box plaits which open out toward the bottom, where it is encircled with two bands of the material, the ends turned back on each side of the front and fastened with buttons. The jacket with basque is lapted at the shoulders and draped in front, where the jacket is fastened with straps of the material and buttons. The turn-over collar and the girdle are of black velvet, the former edged with a lace ruffle. The chemisette is of linen with cravat of green silk. The sleeves are tucked crosswise at the top, formed at the outside and are finned at the bottom of the material. Cuffs of velvet and lace ruffles. JOHN H.

STAR Golden Gate Lodge No.1, S.M. T. and U. B.F., meets the 2nd and 4th Saturdays of each month at 2:30 p.m., at Odd Fellows Too Many Patients Refuse to Speak the Truth as to Their Alliances. It was late, the doctor's patients had either passed away or were mending, and he was sitting with a number of his acquaintances in a corner of the clubroom. "It's a strenuous life we lead," droned the man of medicine, "with the grim side turned uppermost as a rule, but now and then we get a laugh out of it—a laugh with the lid on, of course; we can't afford to show we're amused. I often wonder," he went on, genially, "why some of you chaps ever send for a physician. You don't tell him the truth once in twenty times. You're in a bad way and you're sorry, and to hear you talk I'd think your mouths were cold storage boxes for butter. You suspect that lobster or a rich sauce you ate the day before yesterday is at the bottom of the trouble. You know what's curled up in you and you're frightened out of a year's growth for fear I'll learn. "Accordingly, instead of taking me into your confidence you tell me an impossible story. And if I cross-examine you closely and hedge you in you'll reluctantly admit that you've been somewhat indiscreet. You smoked four cigars Thursday and took six drinks. Doesn't it ever occur to you that I know by your flutters that you smoked from breakfast to bed and took sixteen drinks and six more for good measure? "If I were to believe you and dose you for your aliment as you describe it you'd never get well. Now and then I have to give you strychnine and nitro-glycerine to restore the action of the heart and to listen to you I might conclude that you'd had too much pink ice at a children's party. "As I hinted, we doctors get some fun out of you, but what do you do it for? We were not always doctors, we haven't always taken the best care of ourselves and we're not fools." The Grafter. James B. Dill, whose recent speech on "Graft" at Oberlin college impressed the general country, told recently, apropos of graft, a story about a swindling tramp. "This tramp," said Mr. Dill, "had the alert, unscrupulous, bold mind that makes grafting successful. "He was walking down a city street one day when he saw a little boy stoop and pick up something. "He crossed over to the boy quickly. "You have made a find, my lad? he said. "Yes, sir," said the innocent boy, 'I have found a silver ring.' "I thought so," said the tramp. 'It's the one I just dropped. Now ain't it lucky I had my name cut in it?' "What is your name?" said the boy, suspiciously. "Take it, then. It's yours,' said the boy, handing over the ring with a disappointed air."—San Antonio Express. Harvard's President Appreciated. Some years ago a physician was summoned in haste to attend a patient at N——. On arriving at the island, and inquiring for a conveyance to the house he wished to visit, he was directed to a farmhouse. Here the doctor found a man, whom he requested to harness a horse, at the same time, in the interest of his patient, desiring him to be lively. The man pleasantly and promptly complied, harnessed the horse, and was speedily driving over the road at a good rate. The doctor discussed farming, and was struck with the general information and conversational powers of the driver. On arriving at the house half a dollar was tendered the man, but it was politely declined. "What is the name of your intelligent farmer?" asked the doctor, after he had finished his professional visit. "What, the gentleman who brought you to the house? That was President Elliot of Harvard." His Favorite One. There was never no one in the family disgusted either Sary or me. An' we always lived happy an' cheerful as ever a family could be. An' now we think about Nelly the clouds all gift her a sun. An' the birds don't sing down in the medders, for she was my favorite one. She's left us—there's Sary a-cryin—list rainin' the tears through a prayer; I've written it, I've written it, there's oceans o' sorrow up there, An' the pen kind o' stopped on the paper a-knowin' the damage it done, Dishonorable judgin', 'to she was my favorite on Poet and Fool. This story of Alexis Piron, the French poet and epigrammatist, is told by the writer of "French Men of Letters." Piron was unfortunate enough to be arrested one night by a watchman in the streets of Paris, and was taken the following morning before the lieutenant of police, who haughtily interrogated him concerning his business or profession. "I am a poet," was the reply. "Oh, ho! a poet, are you?" said the official. "I have a brother who is a poet." "Then we are quits," rejoined Piron, "for I have a brother who is a fool." If water sold for ten cents a glass it would be more popular with some men.
