R. 39TH ENCAMPMENT Marked with Much Enthusiasm. Denver's Hospitality to Veterans and Visitors Recognized by Great Praise From Evevybody. Never in the history of the city has there been such a gathering as there has been here this week attending the encampment of the Grand Army of the Republic The city, which swung its gates of welcome wide open to greet the vetrans and visitors has done its duty in no small degree in making it pleasant for all, and this is especially true with the colored citizens. The Twenty-fourth street headquarters for the colored contingent has been quite a busy place. J. M Williams the registering clerk has been taxed in his speed of chiragraphy. His obliging manner in revealing information made him very popular with the visitors who are saying all kinds of good things about him as well as of the other officials at the headquarters. Wednesday night a reception was held at Central Baptist church and besides short addresses a very interesting program was the feature of the evening. The magnificent street parade Wednesday with 20,000 in line was viewed by about 200,000 people. Forty nine states were represented and the fife and drum corps and bands made the old veterans think of the days of '61-65 when they carried the musket to defend the flag that made America free. Of the great applause that was given to the various delegations in the line of march there were none more vigorously cheered than that of the colored delegation from Louisiana in charge of Charles W. Keeting, department commander and Noah Spiller, assistant adjutant general. These veterans carried a piece of sugar cane with cotton bolls on the top, and just be low them were sheaves of rice. They were all prominent and representative men and like all the rest, have spoken their opinion in the most flattering terms as to their treatment in Denver.

The session was called to order by the presiding officer District Grand Master, B. F. Kelley of Pueblo, and after the preliminary exercises the regular routine of business was disposed of by the delegates. The evening was the feature of a grand ball and reception in honor of the delegates and visitors and the royal manner in which the citizens of Cheyenne entertained them brought forth no little amount of eulogy from everybody. The Cheyenne people who are quite thrifty and enterprising in many vocations in the business and professional world made a lasting impression on the minds of all for their genial hospitality. After the completion of business Tuesday the delegates and visitors were shown about the principle points of interest. The following are the officers elected for the ensuing term: Geo W. Gross of Rocky Ford, Colo., District Grand Master; Geo S. Contee of Denver, District, Grand Secretary; Chas, Holmes, of Pueblo, Endowment Secretary; Henry Marks of Denver, District Grand Master; Sell Reese of Butte, Mont.

Johnson, G. D. Hall, C. A. Burton, J. W. Jackson. Henry Marks of Denver; Ex. D. G. M. S. B. Jones, H. C. Davis, H. H. Seymour and W. E. Proctor of Colorado Springs; Grand Master B. F. Kelly, Ex. D. G. M., C. H. Holmes; M. V. P., C. L. Powell and W. R. Hardy of Pueble; Geo. W. Gross of Rocky Ford, H. H. Voss of Salt Lake, Utah; S. L. Reeves of Butte. Besides these there were many visitors in attendance and they all give a very flattering compliment to the manner in which they were entertained. RACE NEWS Gathered from Various Sources. The colored citizens of New Orleans have organized to aid sanitation and are raising a fund to pros- NO. 50. ecute the work of fighting the yellow fever. They will co-operate with a similar organization of white citizens. Philadelphia now has a colored population of about 80,000. Of that number are 941 business and professional people who are their own bosses and doing an aggregate annual business of nearly $6,000, 000. The National Medical Association of Physicians, Surgeons, Dentists and Pharmacists, held its seventh annual session in Richmond, Va., Aug. 22, 24. It is thought that this was the most important meeting of the kind ever held in this country. Tacoma, August 28. The city of Centralia will honor the memory of George Washington, a Negro and founder of the town, by closing the stores to-morrow afternoon when his funeral takes place. Washington was 89 years old. His death resulted from a runaway accident. He settled first in Ohio and later in Missouri, which State signally honored him by passing a special law making him a citizen. He lived near the site of Saint Joseph long before the civil war. He started in 1850 for the Pacific Northwest. He started in 1850 for the Pacific Northwest. He reached Oregon City and after spending a year there Washington moved across the Columbia, settling on the site of the present city of Centralia. He presented the city with a tract of land for a park and donated liberally to all enterprises. During the boom days his wealth was estimated at about $150,000. Through his efforts the First Baptist church was built at Centralia. Denounce Texas Baptist. Springfield, O.—The Ohio District Conference which is a part of the Lexington, Kentucky Conference of the Methodist Episcopal church, now in session in the new Wiley M. E. church in this city at its session Saturday morning took cognizance of the action of the action of the Negro Baptist assembled in convention at Dallas, Texas, who are reported to have sanctioned burning at the stake as proper punishment for assaults and by a rising vote they adopted resolutions condemning the action of the Texas convention. Reply is also made in the resolution to their denunciation of Booker T. Washington. The resolutions as passed by the local body of colored Methodist is as follows: "Whereas,—We have read the dispatches reporting the action of the state convention of Negro Baptists, assembled in Dallas, Texas, (Continued to 4th page) It is well known that with every coming year "The Denver" is a greater and better store—so it is only reasonable that the public expects us to provide for the new season the most liberal and best chosen stocks ever exhibited in the city. It is their right to expect this, and the hundreds of invoices already at hand covering immense purchases from both European and domestic mills and factories insure that there will be no disappointment. Not another store in the west has sent its buyers upon such repeated visits to Eastern markets in preparation for the Autumn business. As a result we are shaping into splendid readiness for the greatest Fall trading our store has ever enjoyed. THE DENVER DR One Night to Leave Denver 4:20 p. m. to-day, evening.

ADT IMMENSE PARADE IN DENVER OF THE GRAND ARMY OF THE REPUBLIC The Market Co. Denver, Colo., Sept. 7. 7. A mighty anthem was sung to the glory of the men who saved the flag, from the great throng that wedged into the heart of Denver yesterday morning. This parade of the G. A. R. encampment will be written in history as the one that loosened the hearts of the Queen City and the Centennial State until the mountains re-echoed the songs of battle and the cheers of the multitude, that swelled forth for more than five hours. It will be written of in years to come as the one that had no flaw; the grand parade that contained more people in a given space than any yet held, and that called forth a spirit of enthusiasm that has not been witnessed by the veterans of the war since the days when their victories were fresh in the hearts of the Union. Denver, holding for the day almost as many more as its normal population, did magnificently. It honored the soldiers signally by giving them the full freedom of the streets; its people showered upon them flowers in abundance and in every way gave them a true western welcome. Without a moment's delay, without a single break in the lines, the holiday throng behaving admirably, without an accident of any kind, the parade was a pronounced success. Praise for the day's triumph is due not one but many. George W. Cook, chairman of the executive committee, was the hero of the hour, as he has been of the whole encampment, and with him are the heads of his staff and Grand Army of the Republic's local committee. The mayor and police force can not be given too much credit. No city has ever had such a holiday appearance. It was colored as with a giant brush in the national colors. Flags and streamers and festoons were everywhere. The city was at its best. Throughout every portion of the district embraced in the parade the sidewalks were packed and the buildings were alive. Never anything approaching the scenes on the main streets has been seen here, and it will be a long time before they can be duplicated. The Grand Army of the Republic was signally honored. The extent of the parade is quite accurately summarized, as follows: Number of veterans in line, 12,500. Number of persons witnessing parade, 125,000. Number of bands in parade, 50. Number of drum corps in parade, 80. Length of parade, 7 miles. Time for parade to pass given point, 3 hours and 5 minutes. Length of line of march, $2\frac{1}{2}$ miles. Largest department in line, Kansas, with 3,200. Smallest department in line, Florida, with 5. The parade started promptly at 10 o'clock. An hour and five minutes later the chief of police and his cordon stepped from Broadway into the front of the reviewing stand. And a minute later Commander-in-Chief King and his staff were up and had dismounted and joined the distinguished gathering of soldiers and civilians in the stand. The flag draped in memory of the dead commander, was placed in the center of the stand. And the march past began in presence of the chief executive of the state and the head officer of the city, the commander of the department of the Colorado and his staff in full uniform, and the citizens of Denver who have been prominent in aiding the work of the local committees, and their ladies. Colonel George E. Randolph, grand marshal of the day, mounted and young again, chosen for the office by reason of his record on the field of battle, had not a trying office. Everything had been arranged beforehand so perfectly that the machine was automatic. The grand stand held 6,000 people. It took up the magnificent chorus of approval that sounded far up from Larimer street and cheered and cheered, and then sang. From the beginning the soldiers bore the trophies of the march. They were laden at the beginning with flowers. If Denver citizens were too lavish at the outset they could not be blamed. But not a veteran appeared without a reminder of Denver's gratitude, however small and homely and modest it might have been. Illinois, claiming Grant and other heroes of the war, had first place. The place goes by seniority of posts; but this state was entitled to the honor perhaps for other reasons. In numbers it was marvelous and the posts looked splendid. Bands there were in plenty. Music made the air lively with melody. "John Brown's Body" and all the famous airs of the war and after sounded sweet as ever to the men on parade. The old Deadwood stage coach brought up the rear of the state with the veterans who DISSATISFACTION IN JAPAN. Police Disperse Meetings in Tokio and Trouble Follows. Tokio, Sept. 7.—Rioting broke out here Tuesday night in connection with the dissatisfaction over the result of the peace settlement. There were several clashes with the police and it is estimated that two were killed and 500 wounded. The rioting ceased at midnight. Police stations were the only property destroyed. The government newspaper office was attacked. The first turbulence attendant on the popular anger over the terms of peace arranged with Russia took place last night. A mass meeting to protest against the action of the government was called to take place at Hibiya Park, but the metropolitan police closed the gates and attempted to prevent the assemblage of the people. The municipality protested against the action of the police and finally the gates were thrown open and a large crowd gathered and voted in favor of resolutions declaring the nation humiliated and denouncing the terms upon which the treaty of peace was arranged. The crowd was serious in its conduct rather than angry, and the police handled it discreetly. were too weak to march. It took Illinois twenty-two minutes to pass the reviewing stand and the men did not dally or limp. Next, the "Badger State." Wisconsin, was led by the Pike's Peak drum corps and although the numbers did not compare in numbers with the state that preceded, nevertheless the showing was good and the veterans of the famous "Iron Brigade" were rewarded. The first thing that struck the onlooker as the advance guard of Pennsylvania approached and passed on was the number of wounded, cripples and one-armed, but who marched manfully forward, also calling for cheers for the host of the day. A huge buckeye preceded Ohio, also the "Bob" Brown rooters. But Ohio turned out splendidly in every respect. New York's turnout was spic and span. The department heads with Corporal Tanner in a carriage appeared and were given cordial greeting. But yesterday it was not so much the individual as it was the flag. When the tattered old flag of the Thirty-second New York appeared fluttering above a gray-haired veteran who bore it, the applause was deafening. The "Star Spangled Banner" rose impromptu. Connecticut was preceded by the "lady colonel" on horseback. The Nutmeg State was all right for what there was of it, but that was not so very much. Massachusetts had the famous Cowboy Band of Dodge City to lead it, and it created quite a furore. Little New Jersey was little all over. Its color-bearer was not over four feet high. Maine is a long distance off, and taking this into account, the great Pine Tree State did wonders. California and Nevada lined up well. Then followed in lesser numbers and with fewer bands, Rhode Island, New Hampshire, Vermont and the Potomac. Maryland did better, and Nebraska was largely represented. Cheers went up and the waning enthusiasm was restored as Michigan appeared in view. It had the battle flags "shot to pieces" to stir the blood. Representatives of the "Bloody Fifth" were singled out for special favors. Following appeared an automobile, the only one in the parade, and in it an ex-Confederate in the grey uniform. The automobile was unexpected and the one man in grey was not looked for. Iowa had an immense representation and Indiana had nearly as many. Kansas had by far the largest delegation in the parade. It was a splendid showing in every way and the sunflower men were cheered until the welkin rang again. "John Brown's Body" was sung by the thousands in the band stand as the Kansans marched past. Delaware and Minnesota followed after Kansas. Then followed Minnesota, and this state won greatly with the onlookers all through the parade. A huge flag was borne flat by the department officers and it was made a receptacle for flowers throughout the parade. But Minnesota was not alone patriotic, it was practical. Its shields bore its record for food stuff production. Missouri came along to the stirring strains of "Dixie," its men bearing miniature flags. Oregon and West Virginia had small commands, South Dakota had a fine delegation, Washington and Alaska carried red, white and blue umbrellas. In succession followed New Mexico, Utah, Tennessee and Arkansas. Louisiana and Mississippi had a goodly number adorned with cotton in the rough. Florida was seen and Texas was mixed. Montana, Idaho and Arizona had nothing to boast of in numbers, but North Dakota had its boomers. So also Oklahoma and Indian Territory that did remarkably well and helped out with banners and exhibits of products. Then followed the Mexican War veterans, four, in a carriage. When George W. Cook appeared at the head of his noted drum corps and surrounded by his ladies' drill corps, leading Colorado and Wyoming, he was given a remarkable ovation. The crowded grand stand "rose at him." The thousands cheered and cheered for a number of seconds. Colorado be the host, brought up the rear. It made a first-class showing, but then it had to do so or Kansas, and perhaps Illinois, world beaten it badly on its own ground. From out of Denver the posts sent a large number and Colorado furnished music not alone for itself, but for a number of states. Fort Collins, Pueblo, Greeley, Pagosa Springs, Montrose, Delta, Canon City, Durango, Colorado Springs, Creede; Paonia, in fact, about every town and city in the state, had a wonderfully fine body of veterans in the line. Wyoming, everything considered, did well. Washington, Sept. 7. —Dr. David E. Salmon, chief of the Bureau of Animal industry of the Agricultural Department, has tendered his resignation and it has been accepted, to take effect October 1st. The resignation was announced by Secretary Wilson at noon, but he declined to state whether the severance is due to the charges filed recently against Dr. Salmon, of which the doctor was exonerated. While the announcement was made that the resignation was purely voluntary, there is a well authenticated rumor that President Roosevelt was not satisfied with the conditions shown by the investigation. Active Volcano in Samoa. Honolulu, Sept. 6. —The steamship Sierra reports a large volcanic outbreak on the island of Savaii, in the Samoan group. The outbreak is ten miles south of Matautu and has created a new mountain estimated to be nearly 1,000 feet high. The lava flows from the base of this mountain a distance of several miles. Travelers report that five or six hills are moving, apparently on lava foundations. Some have advanced several miles from their starting place, indicating a vast molten lava area beneath. 1633-35-37-39 Arapahoe Street.

M. Don't Recognize Defeat. He is a pretty poor sort of man who loses courage and fears to face the world just because he has made a mistake or a slip somewhere, because his business has failed, because his property has been swept away by some general disaster, or because of other trouble impossible for him to avert. This is the test of your manhood; how much is there left in you after you have lost everything outside of yourself? If you lie down now, throw up your hands, and acknowledge yourself worsted, there is not much in you. But if, with heart undaunted and face turned forward, you refuse to give up or to lose faith in yourself, if you scorn to beat a retreat, you will show that the man left in you is bigger than your loss, greater than your cross and larger than any defeat. --- Severe storms occurred on the night of September 1st throughout the greater part of Wisconsin, resulting in heavy damage.

PEACE TREATY SIGNED TO BE APPROVED BY EMPERORS Covers All the Points Contended for by Japan Before the War Was Begun. Portsmouth, N. H., Sept. 6.—The treaty of peace between Russia and Japan was signed by the representatives of the two empires at 3:47 p. m. yesterday. On the instant of the consummation of the great historical act a salute was fired at the United States navy yard. The peace treaty opens with a preamble reciting that his majesty, the emperor and autocrat of all Russias, and his majesty, the emperor of Japan, desiring to close the war now subisting between them, and having appointed their representative plenipotentiaries, and furnished them with full powers which were found to be of proper form, have come to an agreement on a treaty of peace and arranged as follows: "Article 1 stipulates for the re-establishment of peace and friendship between the sovereigns of the two empires and between the subjects of Russia and Japan respectively. "Article 2—His majesty, the emperor of Russia, recognizes the preponderant interest from political, military and economical points of view of Japan in the empire of Korea and stipulates that Russia will not oppose any measures for its government, protection or control that Japan will deem necessary to take in Korea in conjunction with the Korean government, but Russian subjects and Russian enterprises are to enjoy the same status as the subjects and enterprises of other countries. "Article 3—It is mutually agreed that the territory of Manchuria be simultaneously evacuated by both Russian and Japanese troops. Both countries being concerned in this evacuation, their situation should be absolutely identical. All rights acquired by private persons and companies shall remain intact. "Article 4—The rights possessed by Russia in conformity with the lease by Russia of Port Arthur and Dalny, together with the lands and waters adjacent, shall pass over in their entirety to Japan, but the properties and rights of Russian subjects are to be safeguarded and respected. "Article 5—Russia and Japan engage themselves reciprocally not to put any obstacles to the general measures (which shall be alike for all nations) that China may take for the development of the commerce and industry of Manchuria. "Article 6—The Manchurian railway shall be operated jointly between Russia and Japan at Kouang-Tcheng Tse. The two branch lines shall be employed only for commercial and industrial purposes. In view of Russia keeping her branch line, with all rights acquired by her convention with China for the construction of that railway, Japan acquires the mines in connection with such branch lines which fall to her. However, the rights of private parties or private enterprises are to be respected. Both parties to this treaty remain absolutely free to undertake what they deem fit on ex-propriated grounds. "Article 7—Russia and Japan engage themselves to make a conjunction of the two branch lines which they own, at Kouang-Tcheng-Tse. "Article 8—It is agreed that the branch lines of the Manchurian railway shall be worked with a view to assure commercial traffic between them without obstruction. "Article 9—Russia cedes to Japan the southern part of Saghalien island as far south as the 50th degree of north latitude, together with the islands depending thereon. The right of free navigation is assured in the bays of La Perouse and Tartare. "Article 10—This article recites the situation of Russian subjects on the southern part of Saghalien island and stipulates that Russian colonists there shall be free, and shall have the right to remain without changing the nationality. Per contra, the Japanese government shall have the right to force Russian convicts to leave the territory which is ceded to her. "Article 11—Russia engages herself to make an agreement with Japan giving to Japanese subjects the right to fish in Russian territorial waters of the Sea of Japan, the Sea of Okhotsk and Behring Sea. "Article 12—The two high contracting parties engage themselves to renew the commercial treaty existing between the two governments prior to the war in all its vigor, with slight modifications in details and with a most favored nation clause. "Article 13—Russia and Japan reciprocally engage to restitute their prisoners of war on paying the real cost of keeping the same, such claim for cost to be supported by documents. "Article 14—This peace treaty shall be drawn up in two languages, French and English; the French text being evidence for the Russians and the English text for the Japanese. In case of difficulty of interpretation the French document to be final evidence. "Article 15—The ratification of this treaty shall be countersigned by the sovereigns of the two states within fifty days after its signature. The French and American embassies shall be intermediaries between the Japanese and Russian governments to announce by telegraph the ratification of the treaty." Two additional articles are agreed to as follows: "Article 1—The evacuation of Manchuria by both armies shall be complete within eighteen months from the signing of the treaty, beginning with the retirement of troops of the first line. At the expiration of the eighteen months the two parties will only be able to leave as guards for the railway fifteen soldiers per kilometer. "Article 2—The boundary which limits the parts owned respectively by Russia and Japan in the Saghallen island shall be definitely marked off on the spot by a special limitographic commission."

It is built by the taxes and supported by the suffrage of the people. Its doors are open to all and its mission is to reach even the humblest child in the community. Every mother and father owes it to himself and to the race as well as to the nation to see that his child has a proper education. This training should not be neglected, especially in the years when the mind is most active and capable of the largest and quickest development. Our watchword at this time is, see that your child is in school. See that he goes the first day and every day and up to the last day. Let no excuse keep you from doing your full duty to your children. If you cannot afford to buy books for your child they will be furnished to you free of cost by the Board of Education, the tuition is free and almost everything else for the asking. There is no excuse in this city why every boy and girl should not be in school and kept in school until he or she has finished the last grade of the high school. Many parents will send their children away to colleges and academies and some to professional schools, others will go to teach. We are glad to see so many of our Colorado young people fitting themselves for serviceable occupations, but we feel that the rank and file of our people have not taken the fullest advantage of the public schools as they might and our words are sent out to them in particular. Do not neglect your opportunity for your child's sake and for the good of all concerned. As a race we cannot afford to have any of our young people without the advantages of a common school education, and especially since it costs you nothing but a determination to see that your child does not come behind in any good thing. BUSINESS OPPORTUNITIES Denver offers fine business opportunities along many lines. Our city is young yet and not built up like a great many of the older and larger municipalities. We have opportunity yet of training our people to patronize home industries, but there have been so few enterprises to point our people to that are controlled by members of our own race that they have of necessity turned to the people of other races to make their purchases. This habit when once formed will hold them and when we do open new enterprises it will be hard to sever them from an established custom. Along every line Denver offers inducements such as are seldom seen elsewhere, and now is the time to begin. Most of the colored visitors to our city this summer were inquiring, Where are the colored business enterprises? We had few to show them and they seemed surprised that here in this progressive and intelligent city, we had so little to point to as a result of our experience and push. The opportunity will not always linger, time waits for no man and once the main chance is gone, it will not return again. If we cannot accomplish these things singly we can by combinations. These are the days when wealth is combined to accomplish things. Why cannot the men and women of Denver get together and do something. A great hall is sadly needed in Denver, we are paying a mint of money to proprietors of entertainment halls and then must await their pleasure to get them. Will not some one start a movement looking to the building of a suitable hall of the nature needed in Denver. DEFENDERS OF THEIR COUNTRY. This is the title, justly won and ably defended by the war veterans in the annual parade last Wednesday. How grandly they marched! How the people e applauded! How proud the veterans were of themselves. How proud the people were of them. The public seems to know no color line. The veterans drew none, but colored veterans in white posts marched side by side, and colored veterans marching alone received as much cheer and praise as any others. When the Nation wants preservers it asks not about the color. When it wants defenders it asks not about the nationality, and when the country comes to honor its preservers and defenders it does so irrespectively of what complexion they may happen to have, or whether they came from Massachusetts or Mississippi, or from the East or West. The sights of these old soldiers, white and black, gray haired and cripple, from North and South, caused tears to moisten eyes unused to weeping, and sent cheers to the lips of men and women that are seldom moved to such outward demonstration. A country which has survived the assault of such an enemy as this nation endured from '61-'65 while having within its borders everything else that makes for its prosperity, must have this one thing above all others, in order to endure, and that is an equal respect for its defenders, whether white or black, and that is what the people of Colorado have, and which it showed gallantly in their praise in the line of march last Wednesday. What was true of the parade was also true of the camp fires and the receptions. In these social affairs no difference was shown. All received a hearty welcome. All received equal attention. All received unstinted praise. Whether the soldier served in the ranks or as an officer, whether on land or water, whether in the infantry or cavalry, whether in the hospital or artillery, it made no difference, just so he served his country and did his duty. His country was prepared to do him honor; the most menial as well as the more honorable alike are remembered. This is as it should be, and leaves its lesson to us. Be faithful to your country's welfare and when others attempt to traduce its honor and assault its flag or reputation, go to its defense, even at the cost of life. Looking into the faces of these battle-scarred veterans as they went tramping by under the sound of fife and drum, one might read the lesson of faithful service in the time of dire distress, and then as he turned from the marching columns and looked into the eyes of countless spectators and heard cheer upon cheer arousing from the throats of the assembled thousands as he saw men, women and children waving their flags and handkerchiefs in one glad claim of applause he might surely say with Abraham Lincoln, "This government is of the people, for the people and by the people, and shall not and must not perish." Since courage knows no color and valor no people, let us as a race continue to prove ourselves loyal and true to the red, white and blue, and do our full duty as God gives us to know and understand what that duty is that we may continue to live and grow in the hearts of our countrymen. Aug. 26, setting forth their action. If correctly reported, the said association has placed itself on record as indorcing mob violence in its most heinous character, commending the damnable and unlawful burning of Tom Williams at the stake at Sulphur Springs, Texas. The association also making the statement that there is not a law-abiding Negro in the country but was heart and soul in favor of the act. And, stating further, that every member of this association also denounce Booker T. Washington, declaring he is doing unmeasurable harm to the Negro race. Resolved.—By the Ohio District Conference of the M. E. church assembled in Springfield, Ohio, this 26th day of August, representing a congressional membership in the state of Ohio of more than 16,000 Negroes, do most emphatically and positively declare that the sentiments expressed by the Texas Association are gross misrepresentation of the sentiments of the law abiding Negroes of this country. While we must strongly denounce all violations of law, yet we are equally as strong in our opinion that its majesty should be upheld and the punishment meted out to all such violators by due process of law. We do not condone crimes of any kind whether committed by black or white. And the particularly hellish crime of outraging women should in our opinion be followed by the most severe punishment, swiftly meted out by due process of law. "While this crime is barbarous, the stake is far more barbarous and inhuman. We cannot conceive how an assemblage of christian ministers could by any method of reasoning imaginable put themselves on record as fovoring the taking of human life, contrary to the laws of God, and of man, thereby lowering themselves to the herd of these inhuman wretches and monsters. We would reiterate that the law abiding Negroes do not favor but denounce mod jolence in any of its phases under any circumstances and we do most strongly condemn the action of this association in thus placing the Negro ministry in a compromising false and disgraceful light before the country. The members of this association also showed their ignorance in their denunciation of Booker T. Washington, whom we deem, one of the ablest and most influential citizen in the United States. Unanimously adopted by a rising vote. "I had typhoid fever and my hair all came out. I used three bottles of Ford's Original Ozonized Ox Marrow and now my hair is nine inches long and very thick and nice and straight. Most every one seeing how good the Ozonized Ox Marrow done my hair they too are anxious for it. My hair is an example to every one. "219 S Matlack St., West Chester, Pa." March 30, 1905.

The dolls the classic Greek children played with were made of wax and clay decorated with bright colors. One kind had movable limbs and its clothes were made to take off and put on. Every doll had a bed of its own. These dolls represented gods and heroes, but whatever they were meant to represent, they were dressed with loving care by the little Greeks. Spiders as Medicine. Spiders have always figured largely in the annals of folk medicine. In West Sussex many an old doctor still prescribes, in bad cases of jaunice, a five spider rolled up in butter and swallowed as a pill. The Glasgow workingmen make pills of spider's web mixed with starch, and believe them to be excellent in cases of ague. THE OLDEST VETERAN. Fought in the Black Hawk War, Mexico War and Civil War. Denver, Colo., Sept. 8.—At the head of the department of Wisconsin, close to the colors, in the great Denver parade Wednesday, there marched the oldest soldier in the Northwest, William Taylor, of La Crosse. He was born on the 10th of May, 1806, and consequently is past ninety-nine years of age. He was a soldier in the Black Hawk war and even before that, fought Indians in Wisconsin. He was in the regular army and stationed at Fort Crawford, Prairie DuChien, Wisconsin, at the time Gen. Zach Taylor commanded there, and was in Taylor's army throughout the Mexican War. In 1861 he enlisted as a private in the Fourteenth Wisconsin and served four years. He has resided at La Crosse ever since then. Mr. Taylor has attended many of the national encampments, has always been in the parades from the beginning to the end, and yesterday, erect as a regular, marched the entire distance with apparently less fatigue than any other man from the Badger State. While the Wisconsin contingent was waiting for the parade to begin, several of the members, including Department Commander Copeland, urged the old gentleman to sit down, and even went so far as to get him a chair. His gray eyes fairly snapped as he said, "I came here to stand in line and then march with my comrades; not to be seated like an old granny. If any of the rest of you youngsters want to sit down, do so, but I will not set you the example." CHAMBER OF COMMERCE GUESTS Resolution of Thanks Tendered to Gen. George W. Cook. Denver, Colo., Sept. 8.--Distinguished visiting members of the Grand Army were guests of the Chamber of Commerce yesterday noon at a luncheon. Among them were: John R. King, commander-in-chief; Generals John C. Black, Elli Torrance of Minnesota, Grenville M. Dodge of Colorado and New York, J. E. Gillman of Massachusetts, adjutant general of the organization; also Generals Wagner of Pennsylvania, Scott of Illinois, George W. Cook of Denver, Judge Collins of the Minnesota Supreme Court, Corporal James Tanner of Washington, D.C., J. M. Herbert, vice president and general manager of the Colorado & Southern, John W. Springer and others. With these visitors met a hundred prominent business men of Denver, members of the chamber. They broke bread together and had a pleasant oldtime campfire—veterans and sons of veterans all. Gen. Grenville M. Dodge was the first speaker. He told of his early residence in Denver and the first railroad which he helped to build out here from the East. He also spoke of his last road, which extends from the gulf to Canada. General King declared that Denver is an amazing city. "This encampment," he said, has been one of the most successful we have had in many a year, and your hospitality has been unbounded." Gen. John C. Black said Denver was a great city, clean and American to the core. He said Colorado was the first-born state after the Union had been restored. "We love you for the hospitality you have extended, which has been as ample as the horizon," he continued. "No one will forget the brightness and breeziness of your welcome." General Wagner, Corporal Tanner and General Gilman gave Denver unstinted praise for the manner in which the city has entertained the G. A. R., and also for the manner in which everything went off without a hitch. The appended resolution of thanks was then read by President Temple to Gen. George W. Cook, which was unanimously adopted. General Cook acknowledged the commendation, and added that there were a thousand other citizens who helped him to make the encampment what it has been. "To every national encampment of the Grand Army of the Republic for years past an invitation from the Denver Chamber of Commerce and Board of Trade has been extended to hold its next encampment in Denver. To secure its acceptance with so many rivals for the honor required tact and perseverance. "The citizens of Denver feel highly honored with the presence of so many brave and distinguished men, and are very much pleased with the manner in which they have been entertained. "Many have contributed to make this encampment a great success, but no one has worked more faithfully, energetically and efficiently than Gen. George W. Cook, and in appreciation and recognition of his labors the Denver Chamber of Commerce and Board of Trade, on behalf of the commercial interests of Denver, extends to him its hearty thanks." Founder of the G. A. R. Denver, Sept. 8.—At the National encampment yesterday there were over $3,000 given in pledges for the G. A. R. monument to Dr. B. F. Stephenson, to be erected at Washington, D. C., which now brings the amount contributed to over $20,000, and the committee now expects to bring this up to $25,000. Z. G. Simon of Kenosha, Wisconsin, yesterday raised the amount of his offering to $2,500. With the beautiful bronze medals presented to all members of the G. A. R. ,Mr. Simon has given much toward perpetuating the organization's memory. He has had 25,000 of these struck off, and each one is in a handsome case. American Boycott Ended. Washington, Sept. 8.—Consul General Rodgers at Shanghai cabled the State Department to-day as follows: "The general opinion is that the boycott is practically abandoned here, at least for the present, and the latest reports from other parts of China indicate that the situation in respect to the boycott against American goods is much improved." What Situation Was Worth --- Stamped Particular Date on Forehead London Punch Drifts Into Sarcasm London Punch Drifts Into Sarcasm The Pathway to Life Everlasting Propriety of Keeping Up Appearances Impressed on Officer Holding Important Corporation Position. Some months ago an officer holding an important executive post in one of the greater corporations received a kindly, almost neighborly, call from one of his fellow directors. This officer had returned from a brief vacation trip. The fellow director said to him that in view of their long friendship and their respect and admiration each for the ability and achievements of the other, he was going to speak somewhat plainly to that officer. Then he put this question bluntly to him: "What will you be willing to pay to keep your place?" It seemed a strange question. The executive officer did not know at first what to make of it. He saw, of course, that there was some kindly, although hidden, purpose in the question and so he answered in the spirit in which the inquiry was put.

This is accomplished by a downward movement of the diaphragm and an outward movement in all directions of the lateral chest walls. This is largely accomplished by the muscles which lift the ribs and pull them outward from the center of the body. The lungs are emptied by the natural return of the parts to a passive state, when the muscles cease their pulling upon the chest walls. In ordinary deep respiration, when the breathing movements are not interfered with, the movement consists chiefly of an enlargement of the trunk in the region of the waist. There is at the same time a marked bulging forward of the abdominal wall. This style of breathing is sometimes, though incorrectly, termed abdominal respiration. In abdominal respiration proper there is a forward movement of the abdomen, but without marked enlargement of the waist. Abdominal respira- Stamped Particular Novelist, Knowing His Weakness, Has Great Scheme to Keep Himself at Work—Puts Iodine to Good Use. "One of my clients," says a lawyer, "is a well known novelist whose name, of course, I can't give you. He is a curious character—not exactly lazy, but always being diverted from his work on the slightest excuse. His trouble is that he is such a capital fellow he will take up with any sug- gestion made to him to go anywhere or to do anything. He loves compan- lorship, and is restless if he stays for any length of time in the house. "Well, one day some of his business needed his immediate attention, and I called him up on the telephone. "I can't come down," he answered. "Sick? I asked. "No, not sick," replied he, 'but I can't go out—that's all. Better drop in here with the papers you want me to sign as you go up town."

Met such a dear child in the park. So delighted with her that I could not keep myself from rushing up and kissing her. On asking nurse whose child it was, found—most curious thing—it was my own. Asked the woman if I had any more like it and was informed there were two others equally charming. Really delighted to think one has such nice children. Shall certainly call in at the nursery—I suppose we have a nursery—and see the others. I might take them some toys—I believe children like toys—only I don't know what these particular ones have already. Perhaps it would be safer to take chocolates.

Then the officer was told that while, of course, it was impossible to take seriously the question, "What money are you willing to take to hold the office," nevertheless there was a price which he would have to pay and that price was this: He must give up ostentatious living, he must be especially careful to observe local ordinances, not driving recklessly with his automobile, he must be careful to keep all the appearances of propriety, he must do all things that a sober-minded, self-respecting citizen should do, and if his disposition led him to genteel dissipation, riotous living or to ostentation then the giving up of those things was the price he would have to pay if he desired to keep his office. And the reason why that price was exacted was that as officer of a corporation in which the public has invested heavily he must necessarily heed public opinion even in the conduct of his private life.—New York Letter in Philadelphia Press. tion is most frequently seen in sedentary men and infants. The opposite style of breathing, known as costal breathing, is seen in women who habitually wear waist-constricting garments. The principal movement is at the top of the chest. Neither costal nor abdominal respiration is capable of bringing the lungs fully into action. Only such portions of the lungs act as lie in contact with a portion of the chest wall which moves during the respiratory effort, and in those parts which lie in contact with portions of the chest wall which remain idle the air stagnates. Carbonic acid gas and other poisonous matters accumulate. The living cells are thereby poisoned and paralyzed. Pneumonia germs and other disease-producing microbes and especially the germs of tuberculosis are likely to find lodgment in these idle parts. The paralyzed cells are easily overcome by the invading germs and so an acute inflammation may be set up, or, still worse, that dreadful disease, pulmonary tuberculosis, or consumption, obtains a foothold. ing to attend to such important business. But when I met him at the door of his apartment I could see quickly enough why he had no wish to appear in public. Across his forehead, written in a brownish yellow, was a date—Jan. 30.

He was pointed out to me at the play last night. Visited children this afternoon. Quite an adventure. Wandered about a lot at first. No idea had such a big house, and at last found myself in kitchen. Discovered most obliging person, who offered to show me where nursery was situated. Children rather shy at first, but soon came up to me to make friends! Wanted to know where I lived and what was my name. One of them seemed to remember meeting me in the house a long time ago—must have been when children were the smart thing. Couldn't stay long, as they don't seem used to cigarettes in the nursery, and I was due at the club for bridge. Shall certainly call again when I am less busy.

Tokio, Sept. 8.—An imperial ordinance establishes martial law in Tokio. The city has been quiet to day. General Sakhuma, commander of the Tokio garrison, has issued a proclamation warning the populace against disorder. A mcb burned and destroyed ten Christian churches and one mission house school Wednesday night. The people were not injured. Members of the Harriman party, going to a dinner with the minister of finance, were stopped and Dr. W. G. Lyle was hit and slightly hurt. Soldiers guarded the party on its return from the dinner and at one point charged on the mob with fixed bayonets. Another demonstration is planned for to-day, and it is believed that the strongest measures will be necessary to prevent serious rioting and bloodshed. A crowd stopped R. P. Schwerin, vice president of the Pacific Mali Steamship Company, and assaulted his runners, but they did not reach Mr. Schwerin. Crowds menacing a neighboring police klask filled the space in front of the American legation and booted and jeered the soldiers escorting the Harriman party, who fixed bayonets, charged the crowd, cleared the street and guarded the legation throughout the night. The dinner planned by the bank in honor of the Harriman party was abandoned, ewing to the disturbed conditions in the city. Serious rioting followed the attack Wednesday on the office of the Kokumin Shimbun, the government organ. A mob attacked and burned the official residence of the minister of home affairs, which stood between the Nobles' Club and the Imperial hotel, and faced Hibaya park, which was the storm center throughout the day. Threatening demonstrations occurred in the neighborhood of the official homes of Premier Katsura and Baron Komura, foreign minister, who is now in the United States, but the police succeeded in preventing injury to the occupants or damage to the house. TURKS AND ARMENIANS FIGHT Russian Officials Unable to Maintain Order at Baku—Vast Oil District Swept by Fire. Baku, Caucasia, Sept. 8.—The situation here shows no signs of amelioration. It could hardly be worse. The terror-striken inhabitants are fleeing from the city, knowing that the garrison is utterly inadequate to protect them, and, although the worst seconds of fire and massacre have not yet occurred in Baku itself, but is at Balakhan, the excesses may proceed. The principal fighting is not in Baku itself, but at Balakhan, where hundreds have been shot by the infantry and artillery and where 1,000 were killed or wounded during a desperate attack on the military camp and provision depots. A large number of workmen barricaded themselves in the Balakhan hospital. The soldiers began the attack with rifle fire and then stormed the hospital and completed their work with the bayonet. The entire oil and commercial quarters of Balakhan, Sebunto and Nomami have been wiped out by fire and the inhabitants remaining behind were massacred and thrown into the flames. Biblehat continues to burn and is threatened with the same fate as Balakhan. The consulates, banks and buildings in Baku are guarded by troops. All of the English residents and almost all other inhabitants of the better class have boarded the ships and gone to sea to escape from danger. All available steamers have been employed for this purpose. Martial law has been proclaimed in the city. Nobody is allowed on the streets after 8 o'clock at night and inhabitants of houses are held strictly responsible for shots fired from them. Artillery was employed against one house from which shots were fired. The walls were breached, the house was stormed and all the people inside were killed. There is a general panic in the city. A whole army of hungry workmen driven in from the burned suburbs has flocked into the city. There is the greatest destitution and measures for transporting the workmen from the city are imperatively necessary. Reinforcements of troops are arriving daily and it is hoped the authorities soon will have the situation better in hand. Watermelon Day at Rocky Ford. Denver, Colo., Sept. 8.—A Republican special from Rocky Ford last night says: Watermelon Day, Colorado's original fall festival, continues to grow in popularity and attendance. To-day's crowd was the largest in the history of the fair. The Santa Fe's five excursions and the regular train brought throngs of people in excess of any former year. The fair authorities this year provided new and superior arrangements for handling the crowd and the immense assembly had a full day of sightseeing and pleasure, with not an accident or unpleasant circumstance to mar anyone's enjoyment. To-day was the most successful of the watermelon days held thus far. An attendance of 12,000 is a fair estimate. The agricultural and art hall and the poultry house were thronged all day and the stalls and pens of live stock attracted more than the usual amount of attention. The parade of premium winners in live stock departments in front of the grand stand at noon was interesting and indicative of the great progress being made in this branch of agricultural operations in the valley. The ring program was interesting. The fruit exhibit of Manzanola was particularly large and fine, John Harbert of that place winning first prize for the largest individual display.

FEVER'S AFTER EFFECTS FEVER'S AFTER EFFECTS Did Not Disappear Until the Blood Was Renewed by Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. Typhoid fever is sometimes called nervous fever. During the course of the fever the nerves are always profoundly disturbed, and when it is over they are left so sensitive that the patient has to be guarded against all excitement. In the tonic treatment then demanded, regard must be paid not only to building up flesh but also to strengthening the nerves. A remedy that will do both, make sound flesh to repair waste and give new vigor to feeble nerves, is the most convenient and economical. Such a remedy is Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People. One proof of this is the experience of Mr. Charles Worth, of East Vassalboro, Maine. He says: "I had a severe attack of typhoid fever late in the fall which left me very weak and debilitated. My heart palpitated, my breathing became difficult after the least exertion and there was numbness in both hands. I suffered in that way for fully six months. As I did not grow out of it, did not in fact see the slightest improvement as time passed, I decided to use Dr. Williams' Pink Pills as I knew of some cure they had effected in cases like nine. "Almost as soon as I began taking them I could see decided improvement and after keeping on with them for several weeks I was completely well. I consider Dr. Williams' Pink Pills a most valuable remedy, and I am in the habit of recommending them to others afflicted as I was." When the nerves ache and tremble it means that they are starving. The only way to feed them is through the blood, and the best food is Dr.Williams' Pink Pills. They are absolutely guaranteed to be free from opiates or other harmful drugs. They are sold by all drugstores, or may be obtained directly from the Dr.Williams Medicine Co., Scheneotady, N.Y. "Johnny, I thought I told you not to go outside the gate." "Yes'm, but you said I could play dog, and' I had to run an' bark at a wagon." Dealers say that as soon as a customer tries Defiance Starch it is impossible to sell them any other cold water starch. It can be used cold or boiled. Muggins—"Do you think women will ever succeed in politics?" Muggins—"Certainly. They would never buy votes. They would just go around pricing them."

TOWER CANADIAN CO., LTD., TORONTO, CANADA. G. A. R. ENCAMPMENT OVERFLOWS DENVER STREETS. Greatest Gathering Ever Known In Denver, Sept. 5.—Like grain from the hopper, the people passed through the gates of the Union depot all day and all night yesterday into Denver, ablaze with a myriad of lights to receive them, the air a monody from the music of a multitude of bands. And all through the night the rails rumbled with a constant stream of trains, following so fast they pressed upon one another like waves striking the bar; and it will be so to-day and all night and well into the morning of to-morrow. The Grand Army of the Republic has made good to the city; its promises are about to be fulfilled. It will have brought to Denver 100,000 people, if the railroads can haul them. Veterans and excursionists have been camping out on the line of route patiently waiting for trains to bring them to Mecca. Last night Denver contained far more people than ever it held in its history. More than the day which was down on the calendar when the full tide of the Knights Templar conclave gathered here thirteen years ago. The great big posts from the large cities of the East—the U. S. Grant post of Chicago in ten train sections for one—are on the way. The Missouri delegations — Missouri, that poured forth her sons when Lincoln called in a ratio not surpassed by any part of the North; the central states, that were loyal to the core; Pennsylvania, will all be thronging in to-day. At midnight it was announced by Gen. George W. Cook of the executive committee of the G. A. R. that there were fully 125 special trains on the way to Denver, due to arrive before Wednesday forenoon. Some of these trains carry a thousand people, but not very many, while very few contain less than 400. National headquarters were opened by almost all the organizations allied to the G. A. R. at the Brown Palace yesterday afternoon, and the first meeting of the encampment was that of the executive committee of the council of administration in the morning, when the arrangements were made to do special honor to Gen. George W. Cook by presenting him with a set of resolutions for courtesies of an unusual character extended to the council when it visited Denver last December. Hundreds of women who have come to the encampment with children, and unattended, are seeking quarters over the city, and it may be necessary to open the churches for their accommodation. The Tramway company has employed 300 extra men to assist old veterans on and off cars and give them any directions or assistance necessary for their comfort. All of the survivors of the Colorado troops, which consisted of the First, Second and Third regiments and McClain's independent battery, who could be possibly got together last night were barqueted at the Savoy hotel by Capt. David H. Moffat, Walter Cheesman, Eben Smith and William G. Evans, the last named the son of the war governor. All are wealthy men and orders were given that expense should not be spared. A committee was placed in charge composed of Comrades William F. Dorsey, H. M. Orahau and Robert S. Roe. Including invited guests of the younger generation and others whom it was desired to honor, there were just 180 persons seated at the banquet tables. Toasts were responded to by M. H Slater, Maj. John C. Anderson, Maj. Jacob Downing, Lieut. Robert S. Roe, Capt. Harper M. Orahue, Senator Henry M. Teller and Wolfe Londoner. At night an immense campfire of veterans at Broadway Park, arranged by Gen. John C. Kennedy, was addressed by Chaplain (Bishop) McCabe and others. Peace Celebration. Liege, Belgium, Sept. 5.—On the initiative of the French commissioner to the Belgium international exposition, now in progress here, a day will be set for a grand celebration of universal peace, to occur as nearly as possible simultaneously with the signing of the treaty at Portsmouth, New Hampshire. MOFFAT ROAD TERMINAL Right of Way Secured to Union Depot in Denver. Denver, Colo., Sept. 5.—David H. Moffat and associates in the construction of the Moffat road have again given evidence that they are deeply in earnest in the prosecution of the work. Last Saturday it was announced from the offices that a strip of ground about 100 feet wide, sufficient for a double track, had been purchased all the way from Utah Junction to the city, clear in to a point at Fifteenth and Bassett streets—the present site of the City stock yards. The purchase of land includes all of River Front park, the Union Warehouse Company ground, a strip running through the Denargo Land Company's possessions and the tract of ground near River Front park belonging to the Denver Union Water Company. At the same time it was stated that the moment the Gore canon controversy was settled the greatest piece of construction for the road, the big tunnel through the continental range, would be undertaken and prosecuted with all haste. Through the obstacles placed in the way by the opponents of the road on Wall street, the big bore contract has been held in abeyance for over two years. Now Mr. Moffat is in the eminent position to state that he has overcome all difficulties in the East, and the tunnel to pierce the mountain and cut the distance to the coast will be started right away, as soon as the lesser obstacles at home are disposed of. PARADE OF MILITARY FIRST PROCESSION OF G. A. R. Naval Veterans, Ex-Prisoners of War, Shiloh Survivors, Mexican Veterans, Spanish War Veterans, United States Soldiers and Other Organizations. Denver, Sept. 6.—In defiance of the heavy load of years they carry, with sprightly feet the naval veterans and ex-prisoners of war and other military organizations of the Grand Army paraded the streets of Denver yesterday. It was a good foretaste of the greater parade to be held to-day. Approaching the grand stand, well filled with people who desired to take free seats upon it, the platoon of mounted police first came into view, followed by the Second Regiment band from Fort Logan, a splendid aggregation of musicians. Next came the United States troops, column after column of finely-drilled men doing honor to the veterans now in Denver. In the reviewing stand were Governor McDonald, Mayor Speer, Colonel Cooper, General Baldwin, General McCaskey, Lieutenant Sayer and Lieutenant McCaskey. Each body of soldiers and veterans saluted the officers in the stand, receiving recognition in return. Then came the naval veterans, first of the list of old soldiers. Cheer upon cheer greeted these hardy men, who fought so valiantly on land and sea. They bowed gravely or waved their hands merrily as the spirit moved them. A great many of those brave sailors from Naval post No. 400 at Philadelphia were in evidence. Cook's drum corps, Colorado's finest military organization, came along playing "Onward Christian Soldiers," in advance of the National Association of Union Ex-Prisoners of War. The Western Andersonville Association banner was in evidence, borne proudly aloft to the breeze. Another banner bore the following memorable sentence: "We forgive but we never forget." In an automobile and a carriage several veterans of the Mexican and Civil wars were driven past. Among them was Major Wiggins, the veteran scout. All along the line these gallant soldiers received ovation after ovation from the crowds. On the side of the carriage was the inscription: "We carried a flintlock in 1848." Major Hooper of Denver rode in advance of the Survivors of the Battle of Shiloh, a band of 600 veterans. The Smith Center, Kansas, band also preceded them. Next came the National Association of Civil War Musicians, the life and drum boys of '61 to '65. They still bring out as lusty strains from the fades and thumps from the drums as could wish to be heard. The Colorado ex-prisoners of war made an excellent showing, marching proudly to the strains of the Columbine band. The Fifty-second regiment of Illinois, known as the "Lincoln Regiment," was present in great numbers and was one of the organizations which won the most commendation from the crowds. Arrayed in the khaki which has been slept in, rained on and shone upon, 200 veterans of the Spanish-American War and the trouble with the insurgents, followed the band yesterday morning and kept step to the tune of "The Girl I Left Behind Me." The Spanish-American War veterans were represented in the parade by men in khaki and grey felt hats and behind them came the high school cadets, who marched with credit to their instructor and to themselves. Gen. A. V. Bohn, with his aide, Col B. B. Bloom, rode at the head of the parade, followed by twelve aldes-de-camp, as follows: Col. Jones H. Brown, Gen. Irving Hale, Gen. John Chase, Gen. F. M. Reardon, Gen. Benjamin F. Klee, Gen. C. D. Pafflin, Col. A. W. Taylor, Col. L. W. Kennedy, Willis V. Elliott, Col. P. B. Russell, Col. W. H. Combs and Col. C. W. Locke. The rear of the procession was brought up by the Sons of Veterans, the Colorado National Guard, the Wyoming National Guard, the High School cadets and the Colorado State Industrial School cadets. VICTORS IN RIDING CONTEST. Wyoming Men Distinguish Themselves at Cheyenne. Cheyenne, Wyo., Sept. 6.—Late last night the committee announced the following winners of the broncho-busting event: Sam Scoville, Davis ranch, Wyoming; first; Hugh Clark, Horse Creek, Wyoming; second; William Aberdee, Pine Bluffs, third; J. Blocker, Sheridan, fourth; Carl Smith, Cheyenne, fifth. Scoville wins the championship of the world and the $500 saddle given by the Union Pacific Railroad Company. Young Steamboat was awarded the prize for the worst outlaw horse. Frank Weighmann attempted to ride a Texas steer without a rope and failed. Mrs. Kearnek gave another exhibition of riding a bucking horse, riding the outlaw Brimstone. In the stake race, Hugh Clark won first, with nineteen seconds; Van Gilford, second, Laycock third. The Indian war dance was an interesting event of the day's program and the sham battle by 1,000 soldiers from Fort D. A. Russell was an event worth going miles to see. Mrs. W. H. Irwin, winner of every ladies' cow pony race for the last four years, finally lost to-day, being fourth in the race, Mrs. McGhee winning first place. In the potato race, Sam Scoville obtained the highest score with eleven potatoes. Jack Murray won first in to-day's wild horse race, in 2:30, and Gillespie received a prize for the worst horse. In the steer-roping contest Jack Dolan, the last roper of the day and the entire celebration, won first place and the championship in 52 2-5 seconds. This leaves T. S. Musgrave second on his record made last Sunday of 52 seconds. THE IDEAL WIFE Shapes the Destiny of Men—The Influence of a Healthy Woman Cannot Be Overestimated. Mrs. Bessie Ainsley Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound Succeeds Where Others Fail. Seven-eighths of the men in this world marry a woman because she is beautiful in their eyes—because she has the qualities which inspire admiration, respect and love. There is a beauty in health which is more attractive to men than mere regularity of feature. The influence of women glorious in the possession of perfect physical health upon men and upon the civilization of the world could never be measured. Because of them men have attained the very heights of ambition; because of them even thrones have been established and destroyed. What a disappointment, then, to see the fair young wife's beauty fading away before a year passes over her head! A sickly, half-degd-and-alive woman, especially when she is the mother of a family, is a damper to all joyiness in the home, and a drag upon her husband. The cost of a wife's constant illness is a serious drain upon the funds of a household, and too often all the doctoring does no good. If a woman finds her energies are flagging, and that everything tires her, dark shadows appear under her eyes, her sleep is disturbed by horrible dreams; if she has backache, headaches, bearing-down pains, nervousness, whites, irregularities, or despondency, she should take means to build her system up at once by a tonic with specific powers, such as Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. This great remedy for women has done more in the way of restoring health to the women of America /han all other medicines put together. It is the safeguard of woman's health. Following we publish, by request, a letter from a young wife. Mrs. Bessie Ainsley of 611 South 10th Street, Tacoma, Wash., writes: Dear Mrs. Pinkham:— "Ever since my child was born I have suffered, as I hope few women ever have, with inflammation, female weakness, bearing-down pains, backache and wretched headaches. It affected my stomach so that I could not enjoy my meals, and half my time was spent "Mr. Bjones complains that his wife is hard to please." "She could not have been when she married him." 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 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. There are some people who if they were to speak a kind word would surprise their own ear, so that they wouldn't believe themselves. TEA Is strength all? If money is plenty, no. Schilling's Best. Good-enough. Your grocer returns your money if you don't like it. Some men give according to their means and others according to their meanness. Don't you know that Defiance Starch besides being absolutely superior to any other is put up 16 ounces in package and sells at same price as 12-ounce packages of other kinds? When you hear a married woman speak of marriage as being a lottery it's doughnuts to fudge that she drew a blank. $100 FOR YOUR BRAINS THINK FOR US We are compiling a book of proverbs and toasts to be used in adding purposes.

"Our baby had a yellow crust on his head which I could not keep away. When I thought I had succeeded in getting his head clear, it would start again by the crown of his head, crack and scale, and cause terrible itching. I then get Cuticura Soap and Ointment, washing the scalp with the soap and then applying the Ointment. A few treatments made a complete cure. I have advised a number of mothers to use Cuticura, when I have been asked about the same aliment of their babies. Mrs. John Boyce, Pine Bush, N. Y." The Man With the Hoe. President James J. Hill of the Great Northern railroad, in a letter to the irrigation congress at Portland, grows very eloquent in relation to homes upon the arid lands of the West. "The forest falls, the mine is depleted of its precious contents, even the seas might, if searched too severely, cease to give tribute, but the soil is the last unfalling resource," said Mr. Hill. "Play games as we may," he continued, "with picture cards adorned with other names, the man at the bottom, the man with his foot upon a plot of ground, the man who is drawing from the earth food for himself and others is the foundation of all advancement, as well as all prosperity. Make pay for him, for where he is decaying the pillars of the state are weakening, and all the more impressive forms of wealth are trembling toward the dust." Expert Engineering. An Oil City laborer, who is something of a character in his way, was sent the other day to dig a ditch from the street curb to a certain point in a yard. He was given a two-foot rule to assist in his measurements. At the close of the day he duly reported to the "boss." "Did you dig the ditch, Jimmy?" asked the latter. "I did," replied Jimmy. "How long was the dich, Jimmy." "The length of the rule, the length of the pick, the length of two bricks and the length of a stick," answered Jimmy. "Have you the stick?" asked the boss. "I have," said Jimmy.—Oil City Bliz. card. There is something fairly demoni- cal in the way coffee sometimes wreaks its flendish malice on those who use it. A lady writing from Calif. says:— "My husband and I, both lovers of coffee, suffered for some time from a very annoying form of nervousness, accompanied by most frightful head- aches. in my own case there was eventually developed some sort of af- fection of the nerves leading from the spine to the head. "I was unable to hold my head up straight, the tension of the nerves drew it to one side, causing me the most intense pain. We got no relief from medicine, and were puzzled as to what caused the trouble, until a friend suggested that possibly the coffee we drank had something to do with it, and advised that we quit it and try Postum Coffee. "We followed his advice, and from the day that we began to use Postum we both began to improve, and in a very short time both of us were entirely relieved. The nerves became steady once more, the headaches ceased, the muscles in the back of my neck relaxed, my head straightened up and the dreadful pain that had so punished me while I used the old kind of coffee vanished. "We have never resumed the use of the old coffee, but relish our Postum every day as well as we did the former beverage. And we are delighted to find that we can give it freely to our children also, something we never dared to do with the old kind of coffee." Name given by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich. Postum Coffee contains absolutely no drugs of any kind, but relieves the coffee drinker from the old drug poison. There's a re:son.

On the tablet is a likeness of Mr. Grafstrom in bas relief, the Melan bridge marking the point where he lost his life, and a Santa Fe road locomotive, the design of which he was concerned in. An inscription gives a sketch of his life and describes his heroic act as follows: "During the great flood of June, 1903, which swept over North Topeka, he designed and built a small side-wheel steamer, in which, with a volunteer crew of six men, he rescued hundreds of people. While making his last trip on the night of June 2, 1903, the boat was capsized and Mr. Grafstrom was drowned." England's Farms Decreasing. The area of land in the United Kingdom under cultivation steadily decreases, according to the reports of the board of agriculture and fisheries. In 1902 it was 19,344,000 acres; in 1903 it was 19,163,000 acres, and in 1904 there was a further decline to 18,978,000 acres. Sure Cure at Last Monticello, Miss., Sept. 4 (Special) —Lawrence County is almost daily in receipt of fresh evidence that a sure cure for all Kidney Troubles has at last been found, and that cure is Dodd's Kidney Pills. Among those who have reason to bless the Great American Kidney Remedy is Mrs. L. E. Baggett of this place. Mrs. Baggett had dropsy. Dodd's Kidney Pills cured her. "I was troubled with my kidneys," Mrs. Baggett says in recommending Dodd's Kidney Pills to her friends, "my urine would hardly pass. The Doctors said I had Dropsy. I have taken Dodd's Kidney Pills as directed and am now a well woman." Dodd's Kidney Pills cure the kidneys. Cured Kidneys strain all the impurities out of the blood. That means pure blood and a sound, energetic body. Dodd's Kidney pills are the greatest tonic the world has ever known. "What a funny bathing suit that Bjones girl wears." "Yes. She evidently believes that brevity is the soul of wit." COMMON SENSE. A large Minneapolis manufacturing concern, The Pillsbury Co., are employing a unique method in advertising their product, "Pillsbury's Vitos, The Meat of the Wheat," in appealing to the "Common Sense" of the American public. Their assertions are modest as compared to most of the cereal food advertisements of the last few years, but they carry a ring of truth. Their reasoning is certainly rational; here is some of it: "We all believe that Wheat is the best cereal the Creator has given mankind. Pillsbury's Vitos is nothing more nor less than the white heart of this wheat kernel, cut out by steel machinery, and sterilized—nothing added—nothing taken away—no adulteration—no flavoring—no coloring—no cooking. This product comes to your table in its pure, white, granular form, an appetizing dish for young and old. Easily digested because it retains its granular form when cooked, never lumpy or pasty. A two pound package makes twelve pounds of pure white cooked food, and Pillsbury quality too. Two generous dishes for one cent. We have no competitors because we are the largest millers in the world and get the best wheat. Your grocer will gladly fill your order for Pillsbury's Vitos because he knows he sells you satisfaction. Vitos is put up only in two pound packages—air tight. Don't be without it." There are no more chips of the old block; they are splinters. Honesty cannot be bought or sold; it is not a marketable commodity. Ask Your Dealer for Allen's Foot-Ease A powder. It rests the feet.

Physicians Recommend Castoria CASTORIA has met with pronounced favor on the part of physicians, pharmaceutical societies and medical authorities. It is used by physicians with results most gratifying. The extended use of Castoria is unquestionably the result of three facts: First—The indisputable evidence that it is harmless: Second—That it not only allays stomach pains and quiets the nerves, but assimilates the food: Third—It is an agreeable and perfect substitute for Castor Oil. It is absolutely safe. It does not contain any Opium, Morphine, or other narcotic and does not stupefy. It is unlike Soothing Syrups, Bateman's Drops, Godfrey's Cordial, etc. This is a good deal for a Medical Journal to say. Our duty, however, is to expose danger and record the means of advancing health. The day for poisoning innocent children through greed or ignorance ought to end. To our knowledge, Castoria is a remedy which produces composure and health, by regulating the system—not by stupefying it—and our readers are entitled to the information.—Hall's Journal of Health.

THEY SHOOT WHERE YOU HOLD Letters from Prominent Physicians Addressed to Charles H. Fletcher. Dr. B. Halstead Scott, of Chicago, Ill., says: "I have prescribed your Castoria often for infants during my practice, and find it very satisfactory." Dr. William Belmont, of Cleveland, Ohio, says: "Your Castoria stands first in its class. In my thirty years of practice I can say I never have found anything that so filled the place." Dr. J. H. Taff, of Brooklyn, N. Y., says: "I have used your Castoria and found it an excellent remedy in my household and private practice for many years. The formula is excellent." Dr. Wm. L. Bosserman, of Buffalo, N. Y., says: "I am pleased to speak a good word for your Castoria. I think so highly of it that I not only recommend it to others, but have used it in my own family." Dr. R. J. Hamlen, of Detroit, Mich., says: "I prescribe your Castoria extensively, as I have never found anything to equal it for children's troubles. I am aware that there are imitations in the field, but I always see that my patients get Fletcher's." Dr. Wm. I. McCann, of Omaha, Neb., says: "As the father of thirteen children I certainly know something about your great medicine, and aside from my own family experience I have in my years of practice found Castoria a popular and efficient remedy in almost every home." Dr. J. R. Clausen, of Philadelphia, Pa., says: "The name that your Castoria has made for itself in the tens of thousands of homes blessed by the presence of children, scarcely needs to be supplemented by the endorsement of the medical profession, but I, for one, most heartily endorse it and believe it an excellent remedy." Dr. Channing H. Cook, of St. Louis, Mo., says: "I have used your Castoria for several years past in my own family and have always found it thoroughly efficient and neat. I have also in my great consideration in view of the fact that most medicines of this character are choxionis and therefore difficult of administration. As a laxative, I consider it the peer of what I ever prescribed." Dr. R. M. Ward, of Kansas City, Mo., says: "Physicians generally do not prescribe proprietary preparations, but in the case of Castoria my experience, like that of many other physicians, has taught me to make an exception. I prescribe your Castoria in my practice because I have found it to be a thoroughly reliable remedy for children's complaints. Any physician who has raised a family, as I have, will join me in heartiest recommendation of Castoria."

A dance frock of some sort is a very necessary article in the wardrobe of every girl who intends passing any time at a large hotel, and the silk and cotton flowered grenadines are among the most attractive thin stuffs. One has a design of large pink roses and foliage scattered over the open white ground. On the two deep flouces which trim bottom of skirt are set five rows of narrow satin ribbon, all pink, but shading from the darkest pink in the rose design to the lightest. The low-cut draped bodice is filled in at the bust line with tiny ruffles of white lace; wider flouces of same, headed by pink ribbon, forming the elbow sleeves. A deep lace point is set in front over the gathered material. It's the Picturesque Touch. Of all the pretty summer coats none are more fascinating than the flower-colored ones of silk trimmed quaintly with ruches and worn with the flowered muslins which are having such a run. The silk matches in color, of course, the figure of the dress material. In corn color, rose color, dull blue or pale blue and pretty greens and pinks they suit all types of girls. The matrons are more apt to select them in plums, purples and other deep tones. The woman with more avoirdupois than she desires usually makes her outdoor silk coat the color of the ground tone of the gown with which she is to wear it in order to avoid an accentuating contrast and ungainly outlines. ```markdown ``` DOMPADOUR LINEN ITA GOVN. Widow's gown of pale gray batiste, with black embroidered dots, trimmed with gray velvet and plain gray batiste ruchings. Real Mint Sauce. Mint sauce is usually a delusion and a snure, being merely very sharp vinegar and a few fragments of tasteless mint leaves. Real mint sauce is another thing. Here is a recipe vouchered for by an experienced cook: Let the water from the cold water tap run over a bunch of mint until it is perfectly clean of dust, strip the leaves from the stalks, tear them in small pieces, and put in a bowl. Pour boiling water over the mint, and cover the bowl closely. A little sugar may be added with the hot water, as it helps to bring out the flavor of the leaves. Make a roux of a tablespoonful or more of the gravy from the pan in which the lamb was roasted, with a little flour. Add the water in which the mint was soaked, and thin with more of the gravy and a little water. The sauce is not to be a gravy. Season with salt and paprika. Unless a strong flavor of mint is liked, strain the leaves from the sauce before serving—New York Post. Simplicity of Stocks. There is a noticeable simplicity in stocks this year and the idea seems to be to have the neck pretty without making the stock too high and too tight. Stocks are high and made of soft stuff which can be wired if one wants to keep the stock very stiff. The stock is not worn as high as it was nor as tight and headaches are growing fewer. There are neat little soft linen stocks to be purchased and the woman who wants to have her neck comfortable can lay in a dozen of these little linen trifles and wear them every day. They come in little stand-up collars of linen, trimmed with lace, and some are embroidered while others are stiffened with needlework. In Pelerines All sorts of pelerines, visits, victorines and othe, trifles—they are pretty much the same under any name—are shown with the shape determined by the silk foundation, and this often covered with row upon row of shirred or plisse ribbon. The manufacturers are meeting the new modes delightfully in the pull or draw threads that are incorporated in the ribbons, and that save a vast amount of labor in their use. One has but to pull the thread, the ribbon shirrs itself, and its disco- sition in the design is then delightfully facile of achievement. The latest fad does not consider those complete unless velvet ribbon, black for choice, be tucked in somewhere or other in the design. The possibilities of this delightfully becoming fabric are only beginning to be understood over here, and the piquant touch of black upon a costume of any color—but more especially upon white—is a nuance to which the Parisienne pins much of her faith for a successful toilette. Boudoir Confidences Greens are seen in new shades, both light and dark. Ruffles of lace at elbow finish a charming little dress. The pocket is a very important feature of the summer coat. Narrow boas and ruffs are worn, but the smarter ruches are quite large. Ribbon velvet in rows and in simple designs will be useful for trimming. Long silk traveling coats are a decided feature of this season's fashions. White serge has been revived and bids fair to become extremely popular. The zephyrs, colored and, white linen, and oatmeal cloth are all tempting. Plaids, checks and tartans return to us as regularly each fall as the first frosts. Tans of an infinite variety of shades share the popularity of the white stocking. Scald and blanch half a pound of sheiled sweet almonds and three ounces of bitter almonds, throwing them as you do them into a large bowl of cold water. Then pound them, one at a time, into a paste, adding a few drops of wine or rose water to them. Beat eight eggs very light, with two-thirds of a cup of sugar; then mix all together with a quart of rich milk, or part milk and part cream; put the mixture into a saucepan and set it over the fire. Stir it one way until it begins to thicken, but not till it curdles; remove from the fire and when it is cooled put in a glass dish. Having reserved part of the whites of the eggs, beat them to a stiff froth, season with three tablespoonfuls of sugar and a teaspoonful of lemon extract; spread over the top of the custard. Serve cold. Embroidery Hints. Girls who wear linen suits like to embroider card cases to match. With white embroidered blue suits the card case is white and blue, and they are done in other colors or all white. Handkerchief bags are pretty things and cost 25 cents ready stamped upon sheer linen. They are embroidered in colors and lined with a color harmonizing. HINTS TO HOUSEWIVES A little lemon juice added to the water when mixing will make the pastry light. When eggs are to be kept for any length of time they should be stood on the small end, not the large. Paraffin can be used the second time to cover jelly and jam if it is TEA GOWNS MUST BE LONG. A THE FASHION OF THE NINETEENTH CENTURY A tea gown should be long, and although it is a fad now to shorten the train on most skirts, the rule apparently does not apply to the tea gowns, which always are far more graceful when they are long. A matinee may be short, but then a matinee, as its name implies, is for morning wear. A tea gown is for the afternoon, and Almond Custard. washed clean and boiled before being turned over the fruit again. Unpainted wire netting not only makes a good rest for fiadrons when several thicknesses are used, but is most effectual to clean them on. The short ends of candles are most satisfactory to start a fire with, since they burn with a steady flame till the kindling and wood is well ignited. The label on a glass jar will keep clean and in place longer is pasted on the inside. Of course, this only applies where dry materials are used, such as rice, tiploca, etc. Said a fashionable dressmaker: "It does not matter so much what your gown is, providing it is very short in the skirt. For the elegance of your costume you depend upon your smart hat; upon your pretty shoes and spats; upon your stockings; upon your gloves, which match your shoetops, and upon your hat, which matches all of these things. Your dress may be a dull brown mohair or the plainest of black taffetas, yet you will look elegant. It is all on account of your small belongings." There is a woman's tailor in London who is selling beautiful sets for reception wear. In a "set" he counts the hat, the shoes, the hose, the gloves and the umbrella. M. H. BLACK and WHITE MATTE Cream colored batiste, with Irish lace flounce and coat. Orange velvet accessories. Bead Collarette is Here. A striking novelty, which as yet is sacred to the most exclusive modistes, is the beadwork collarette. These decidedly quaint accessories are eminently successful, rightly applied, but, needless to say, the utmost discretion must be observed in order that they shall not recall too vividly the beadwork cushions which haunted the gone decade. Heavy Laces Little Used. Heavy, stiff laces are rarely seen upon sleeves and never in sleeve flouces. The sort of lace used for sleeves is always transparent and takes the form of point applique, Honlton, Lierre Valenciennes, oriental and similar, filmy laces that will fall softly and give a misty, frothy effect to a sleeve. A when made low neck and with elbow sleeves and on the elaborate lines that are dictated at present is, of course, more or less of an evening gown and quite possible for an at home dinner. The matinee, on the contrary, is distinctively for the morning, no matter how elaborate in design it may be, and after 12 o'clock it is not possible Smart Accessories SCHOOL Bring the Children them Shod.

Just outside of Berlin a crowd of Somerset young folks on their way to White Horse were attracted by the bawling of a cow whose calf had got down over an embankment. The calf was returned to its mother's side and one of the young men was telling his girl how the cow actually licked his hand in gratitude when she told him that it wasn't gratitude at all, the cow clyly thought she had twins.—Meyersdale (Pa.) Commercial. Some Pig Superstitions. Another example of pig superstition is found in the mythology of the east, from which one learns that when the earth was hidden away by the malice of a giant, the god Vishnu took upon himself the form of a great oar. This animal had fiery tusks, with which it rooted the earth up from the depths of Patalas, putting it once more in its proper place. Then He Cheered Up. A witness in a case at Paris had his hat stolen while he was in the box. He cried: "They have stolen my Panama, M. le President. It was a magnificent new Panama, and I gave a lot of money for it." "Ah," said the judge soothingly, "they wouldn't have stolen it if it had been an old one." The unfortunate man cheered up at once. Thought He Knew Him. As Willie was looking out of the front window he saw his grandfather pass by the house, and calling to his mother, who was not now on speaking terms with her parent, because little Willie tore up some flowers in the old man's garden, said: "Mamma, ain't that 'Bill Woods?' Usen't he be my grandfather once?" Scotland To-day. Both the old galley and the old earnestness of Scotland have disappeared. At present Scotland is the dreary paradise of bourgeois prosperity and sectarianism, a country of 15 sects, 3,000 churches, 300 bowling greens, 250 golf courses—and no poet. —Malagrowther, in the National Review. Bishop McVicker's Large Family Bishop McVicker of Rhode Island, in speaking of his great size, tells of a time when he went to hire a house for himself and his sister, who is also exceptionally large. Upon being asked by the landlord if his family was large the bishop replied: "Yes, my family is very large, but not numerous." Pat Was Married. Pat Murphy entered a Liverpool railway station. It was going to be his first ride on a train; as he approached the ticket office a young lady called for Mary Hill, single; it happened to be a station on the line. Our here's turn came next. He shouted, "Pat Murphy, married!" Once Only. Love in early youth -passionate, fierce, irresponsible love -can come but once a life. It is, in fact, an indication of deviation. If the truth were known the pleasant feature of first love would prove to be its memory.-Charles J. Norris in Fortnightly Review. Swans in Battle Royal. A fight to the death between two full-grown swans was witnessed in the Wyck, a tributary of the English Thames. They could not be separated, and continued until one died of exhaustion. The other was severely injured about the neck. Doing Good. Aristotle says: "All actions have a tendency to reproduce themselves and thus to produce habits, or states of the will. By doing just things a man comes just; by doing brave things he becomes brave." / Bagpipes Originally Norwegian. Bagpipes Originary Norwegian.
