Negroes of Nashville Desert "Jim Crow" Street Railway. Automobiles Have Been Ordered and will be used in Coveying Negrous Over the city. The Negroes of this city who have pride enough to stay off the miserable Jim Crow street car will not have to walk much longer. The Union Transportation Company, composed of Negro men and women who love their race, has provided means of transportation for them. According to the white papers, five automobile cars have been ordered that will carry from fifteen to twenty passengers. These, with the wagons now in use, will accommodate quite a number of passengers, and relieve the situation in many respects. This transportation company is not composed of rich Negroes who have money with which to speculate. There are three or four men leading the movement who have a little money, but the great bulk of the stockholders are poor people. This fact entitles the company all the more to the unstinted praise and the unlimited support of the Negro people. The highest motive that prompted this investment was the good of the Negro people. The Nashville Banner inquired, "Did the Jim Crow law do this?" We think it did. The thoughtful Negroes of Nashville desire very much to avoid trouble with the street car companies, their conductors or any other class of citizens. They do not believe that trouble can be avoided unless they keep their wives, sweethearts and female relatives off of the street cars. They are right. The street car conductors and meddlesome white men have beaten one colored woman nearly to death. The Negroes have shot one white man on the cars, one colored woman was arrested for violating the Jim Crow car law last week and other arrests are liable to follow. We do not wish to see a repetition of these things. We cannot tell where they will end—whose wife or daughter will be beaten or arrested next, nor what the consequences of such acts will be. We are, as a rule, lawabiding people and we desire to live in peace with our white neighbors; therefore we have fully decided to urge the colored women who have the proper self-respect or womanhood enough to resent insults from white men to keep off the beautiful (?) Jim Crow car. This advice would not be heeded unless we furnish our people some decent method of conveyance. The Union Transportation Company has done this. Five motor cars will go a long way in the solution of the perplexing problem. Let the cars come on; let the Negroes who haven't buggies and VOL. XI. SAVED BY PATH RACE ORAD THE JOURNAL Railway. Automobiles Have [be used in Coveying wagons keep on walking until they arrive. Then let it be regarded as a crime against Negro society for a Negro to be caught on a Jim Crow car for any purpose. It will not be necessary to walk much longer. The order has been placed; the motor cars are coming. Let all the Negroes arise and give three loud cheers for the officers and directors of the Union Transportation Company.—Nashville Clarion. Porter Kills Whites. Louisville, Ky., Thursday.—As a result of entering the Jim Crow department for Negroes, drinking swearing and using all kinds of vulgar language, Alfred Ray was instantly killed and William Blaine was fatally shot; both are white. The trouble occured on train No. 24 of the Louisville, Henderson & St. Louis Railroad near Stephenville. It is said that the two men were drunk, wanted to break up the Jim Crow and run things their own way. When the conductor approached for their fares, they became abusive and made the conductor turn out. The Negro porter seeing that the men wanted to run the train, and being incensed over the use of such vulgar language in the presence of a highly respected colored lady pulled out a 44 Colts improved and shot the men. A later report gives that the conductor was run off of the train, consequently was unable to give any account of the tragedy. This is only one of the many damnable instances of Southern white ruffians who have no respect for the respectability of a colored lady. A few more lessons like this will bring them to their senses, and hold them in their place. A False Report Corrected. A false report has gone abroad through certain newspapers that the Negro Baptist State Sunday School Convention assembled in August 1905 endorsed mob law and that Rev. Dr. A. S. Jackson pastor of the New Hope Church of Dallas favored lynching under certain ciscumstances. This report is manifestly untrue The fact of the meeting place of the Convention being changed from Sulphur Springs to Dallas on account of the recent lynching at former place proves conclusive- State Historical and Natural History Society, Denver, Colo. BY PATRON COUR RACE ADC JOURNAL DENV lle automobiles Have moveying ly with tion s This re sentation done in The o condem especial lence. the con --- ly without a word that the convention stands for law and order. This report is purely a misrepresentation, and I believe it was done intentionally. The convention was a unite in condemning crime in any form especially the rapist and mob violence. I attended every session of the convention and know the doings and spirit of the same. Dr. Jackson of Dallas states positively to the convention that his position was clear, and had been for years, respecting the man who commits the nameless crime and the man who joines the, mob to brace the law—that he stands unqualified against both So the matter should end. Physical courage is not the most admirable of human characteristic, yet is not to be despised, and often is an indication of true manliness and capability in other ways. Moral courage is a higher quality than physical, yet they are often associated together. Not long ago the Negro Business Men's League of New York City held a convention and discussed many things, among them banking, and one delegate branched off to describe the courage displayed by the Negro strike breakers in the recent strike in Chicago, as follows: "Several hundred of these new-comers in black paraded the streets of Chicago with no weapons for their defense, except walking sticks. Every street through which this black regiment of workers marched was thronged with a turbulent mass of angry and riotous men, women and children. The scene of disorder was beyond description. Every step forward was a challenge to the mob. From thousands of angry throats were poured out upon these black marchers a torrent of curses and threats. Not only curses, but from every direction from the roofs of buildings, and from the alleys and byways, bricks, shoes, stones, and everything else possible were hurled at these Negro workers. But these men who were considered cowards marched with heads erect and firm step with no signs of fear. It was a spectacle long to be remembered. On they marched over into the face of violence and more violence, every moment receiving more direful warning that life in Chicago was to be a life of danger and death. Now and then they would fell to the ground some member of the mob who would venture too near with offered bodily violence, but they were showing themselves to be men. They were called brutes, but they were showing themselves to be men. They were called cowards, but every step of their perilous march they quaked REV. J. B. Pius. The Negro's Courage not even in the face of threatened death. I venture to say that in no other single instane in American history, outside of actual war, was there ever a more trying test of manhood than that displayed by these black heroes. Remember they had no preparation for this trial. They knew nothing of what awaited them. They were not trained soldiers. They came on a mission of peace and suddenly found themselves in the midst of a relentless and exterminating war." That really was an exhibition of moral as well as physical courage and could any equal number of white men nave done any better? Men only a little above the brutes, as some Southern people consider the Negro, could not stand such a test as that.—The New Age. RACE NEWS Gathered from Various Sources. An unknown white man threw a live baby in a sewer manhole at San Antonio last week. Can you imagine any thing more heartless? On account of the Washington-Wanamaker dinner a white printing firm of Fort Worth refused to ran off the Item for Editor J. W. T. Scott. Chas. Schuchardt a white man was arrested in San Antonio, Texas, last week for marrying Mary Meyers a Negro woman. He is in jail in default of $500 bail. There are 150 colored men on the police force in Chicago. The new city directory puts the population of Chicago at 2, 500,000, and the colored population now in Chicago at 72,000. A. H. Bonnett an ex-policemen was fined $1.00 and cost amounting to $20.95 last week in San Antonio for refusing to vacate the compartment set aside by 'Jim Crow law' for the Negro race. At a banquet held in Toledo, Ohio, Aug. 25, Mayor James G. Woodward abused the Negro race in the presence of colored writers, and when he went to don his hat chicken bones, lobster shells, rotten eggs and other garbage fell out of it. The village of Brooklyn, Ill., a town of some 1,600 inhabitants, is officered entirely by Negroes, and is one of the best regulated communities in the State. It has a board of trustees, street commissioners, fire and police board departments, health officers, and, in fact, all that belnngs to a town of its charter class. The people ap- pear prosperous and are a standing refutation of that oft-current libel that the Negro is incapable of self-government. Brooklyn offers exceptional inducements to colored business men. A delegate convention of colored mechanics, representing Missouri, Illinois and several of the Southern states, convened at St. Louis, Mo., Aug. 25 to organize a colored mechanical association, with local branches in all cities. This body is not identified or affiliated with any other labor organization. Its object is co-operation for mutual benefits and opportunity for employment. H. W. Fearson of St. Louis was chosen temporary chairman and W. D. Hennington, Jr. of Springfield, secretary. There were thirty delegates present, representing six States. The Negro companies of the Georgia State militia were abolished by legislative enactment at Atlanta, Ga., last week. Governor Terrell announced that the measure meets with his approval, and the Negro troops under arms in Georgia will be mustered out of the service before the end of the week. There are five Negro companies in the State, three at Savannah, one at Augusta and one at Macon. They vary in strength from fifty to sixty men. The reason for the bill involved both the efficiency of the service and the matter of procedure. Under the terms of the Dick bill some of the Negro companies would take precedence over some of the white companies. This was deemed sufficiently objectionable for the senate to pass the measure by a vote of 38 to 0. The white letter carriers in Louisville are displeased at the number of Negroes recently appointed to work at their sides. In the last months eight appointments have been made and six of the positions have been filled by Negroes Dr. Baker said, in regard to the matter, that he could do nothing but pick those holding the highest average on the list of posted by the civil service commission in the lobby of the postoffice. He said: "This thing is annoying to me. When I go to recommend appointment of a substitute I have no way of knowing his color. The civil service rules forbid the designation of eligibles for Federal positions as white or colored. When a vacancy is open for a substitute I go to the list and mark off the eligible with the highest average. I don't know whether he is white or black and I don't care, so the appointment is made according to law." Silver City, Miss., Sept. 2.—Arthur Woodward and Talecum Woodword, two Negroes, were lynched here today by a mob of fifty persons. The Negroes were in custody of Marshal W. B. Jackson, who was boarding a train when the mob appeared and took possession of the prisoners. They were taken to the outskirts of the town and hanged to a tree. The Negroes had assaulted Andrew White, a well farmer, and seriously beat him. The Marshal of Silver City is responsible for this lynching. He had authority to shoot every member of that mob that persisted in taking his prisoners from him. He presented the State of Mississippi and had all the power and force of the State and the Federal government at his back. When he failed to shoot for the protection of the prisoners that he had in custody he became an open, flagrant violator of the law himself, and particeps criminals to the mob. Mobs ought to be shot; if the officers are such cowards or so full of prejudice that they can't do their sworn duty, they should give the prisoners a gun or two and let them protect themselves. However careless officers of the law may be, mob law must go. SAM WELLERISMS. It can't be beat, as the small servant girl said of the dusty carpet. This is cold comfort, as the invalid said when the nurse put ice on his head. That's a fine leading article, as the journalist said when the pilot engine passed him. That is the lap of luxury, as the fellow remarked when he saw the cat drinking cream. It's a matter of taste, as the teabuyer replied when he was asked how he selected his Hyson. I have pressing business to attend to, as the woman said when she wanted to get to her ironing. I'm engaged to So-and-So, as the girl told her friends when she was hired to work a sewing-machine. You can't pronounce that right, as the schoolmaster said when he wrote "wrong" on the blackboard. These are outward bound, as the man observed when he saw some books that had been re-covered. This is a case of trance-migration, as the constable remarked when he met a woman walking in her sleep. I am trying to combine the spirit with the letter, as the fellow explained when he mixed his whisky with his T-ea.

At Cedar Rapids, Iowa, the national convention of the postoffice clerks split in two factions when delegates from fifty-five branches, including Tacoma, Washington, withdrew from the hall, some snatching off their badges and trampling them under foot as they left. The Standard Oil Company at Pittsburg on the 12th inst., advanced the price of all grades of crude oil. Pennsylvania oil was raised 2 cents and the other grades were advanced 2 cents. The price of Western oil at Independence, Kansas, was at the same time raised in amounts varying from 1 to 5 cents a barrel. The total receipts for the Britt-Nelson fight at San Francisco were $48,311. That amount was divided as follows: Nelson, $18,841.29; Britt, $12,560.86; management, $16,908.82. Added to the winner's share is $5,000 he got for his interest in the moving pictures, which brings Nelson's profits up to $23,841.29. Exhaustive experiments with the use of oil as a fuel on battleships have proved so satisfactory that the British admiralty has ordered the erection of a great oil storing depot at Plymouth, with jetties at which tank steamers can moor. It is understood that stores of oil will be established at most of the home ports. The Esch-Townsend railroad bill will be introduced at the next session of Congress practically in the same form that it passed the House last session.

A convention of 2,000 butchers from all parts of Germany met at Berlin and adopted resolutions declaring that a great and increasing scarcity of live animals exists in the German empire, and petitioning the imperial government to speedily abolish the meat famine by opening the frontiers for the admission of animals from other countries. Following is the summary of the cotton crop of 1905, as reported by the statistical committee of the Southern Cotton Growers' Association: Production, 9,588,133 bales; percentage of condition as compared with last year, 73.3, as compared with the government's estimate of 72.1. The yield is regarded as exceedingly small, as from ten to ten and one-half million bales was expected. Samuel R.

The attitude of labor toward Joseph Chamberlain's fiscal policy was emphatically attested by a vote at the session of the British Trades Union, Congress at Hanley. By a vote representing 1,253,000 members against 26,000, th's congress declared for free trade, asserting that "any departure therefrom would be detrimental to the interests of the working classes, upon whom the burden of protection would press the most heavily." BIG BATTLESHIP SUNK BIG BATTLESHIP SUNK HUNDREDS OF LIVES ARE LOST Admiral Togo's Flagship, Mikasa, Victim of Fire in Sasebo Harbor—Wrecked and Sunk by Magazine Explosion. Tokio, Sept. 13.—The Navy Department announces that the battleship Mikasa has been destroyed by fire and the explosion of her magazine, causing the loss of 599 lives, including men of other ships who went to the rescue. Admiral Togo was not on board the Mikasa when the disaster to the battleship occurred. The ship was at anchor in Sasebo harbor when the fire started at the base of the mainmast at midnight Sunday. It spread with great rapidity, exploding the after magazine an hour after the fire had been discovered. The explosion blew a hole in the port side of the vessel below the water line, causing the ship to sink. The Mikasa sank in shallow water, and it is believed the ship can be repaired. Rescuing parties were sent from the various warships in the harbor and there were heavy casualties among them. An investigation is now being held to determine the cause of the fire. Various conjectures are current as to the cause of the fire. Some attribute it to an overcharge of electricity. Great relief was felt throughout Japan when it was learned that Admiral Togo was not on board the ship at the time of the fire. The disaster to the battleship Mikasa has cast a gloom everywhere. The Mikasa, as Togo's flagship, was endeared to the hearts of the people. In the battle of the Sea of Japan the Mikasa was the heaviest loser of the Japanese ships, having sixty-three killed and wounded. She approached nearer to the Russians than any other battleship. The Mikasa was also the flagship of Admiral Togo in the great naval battle fought off Port Arthur August 10, 1904, on which occasion the Japanese flagship also suffered the most but continued in the fighting line. On that occasion the Mikasa had four officers and twenty-nine men killed, six officers and twenty-nine men severely wounded and four officers and twenty-nine men slightly wounded. The Mikasa was one of the largest and most powerful vessels in the Japanese navy. She was built at Barrow, England, and was launched in 1902. She had a displacement of 15,200 tons and her speed was 18.5 knots with 16,431 indicated horse power. Her armament consisted of four 12-inch, fourteen 6-inch, twenty 12-pounders, eight 3-pounders, $4\frac{1}{2}$-pounders and eight millimeter guns. Wanted to See Roosevelt. Oyster Bay, Sept. 13—Issaac Schamus, a Russian Jew, twenty years old, was arrested here late yesterday afternoon and after an examination by a justice of the peace was sent to Mineola, Long Island, to be examined to as his sanity. The arrest was made by a secret service officer, one of the personal guards of the President. Shamus, who resides in New York City, arrived here at 12:20 p. m. from New York and soon afterward had an interview with Mr. Barnes, assistant secretary to the President. He desired to see the President and talk with him about the price of coal. He said he was the general coal agent of Greater New York. There was imminent danger, in his opinion, of a general strike among the miners in the anthracite coal region of Pennsylvania, and the strike would result in great hardships for the people of the country. He wanted ten minutes with the President to tell him to appoint a commission of three men who would regulate the output of the coal supply so as to provide the poor with fuel at reasonable prices, even in the event of a strike. When Schamus was searched at Mineola a permit to carry a revolver signed by Captain Lantry of the New York police force, and Commissioner of Police McAdoo was found on him. The permit was issued yesterday. No pistol was discovered, however, and Schmus said he had not carried one. State Federation of Labor. Denver, Sept. 13.—A Salida dispatch last night says: The second day's session of the State Federation of Labor convened yesterday morning at 9:15 with President J. C. Sullivan in the chair. Secretary Harry Waters read the report of the legislative committee, dealing at length with the lobbying against the anti-boycott bill, defeating its purpose and making it ineffective. A resolution recommending affiliation with the American Federation of Labor evoked considerable discussion. Messrs. Van Valkenburg of Silverton and O. H. Taylor of Creede vigorously opposed the resolution and C. H. McPhee of the carpenters' union of Denver and Clarence Moorehouse and wife each made a telling plea in its defense, after which the convention adjourned until 2 o'clock, when J. J. Sterling and T. M. Hyder, the latter an alderman of Denver, made eloquent arguments in favor of affiliation. The question went to a vote and the resolution carried by a good majority. Bryan Not a Candidate. Chicago, Sept. 13. "I want to make my position perfectly clear; I want to say to you that not only am I not announcing a candidacy, but I am not permitting a candidacy." In these words William J. Bryan administered a check to the enthusiasm which at the Jefferson club banquet given last night in Mr. Bryan's honor, greeted the speeches advocating his nomination for the third time for President. There had been warm words of praise for Mr. Bryan, particularly from former Congressman Ollie M. James of Kentucky and Judge James B. Tarvin of Covington, Kentucky, who had declared unqualifiedly for Mr. Bryan as the Democratic nominee for President in 1908 and from Alexander Troup of New Haven, who declared that Bryan was the legitimate leader of the Democratic party in the coming campaign FINE HAND PAINTED CHINA FOR PREMIUMS WASH WATER WITH WHITE The newly imported hand painted china, shown this week, is exceptionally artistic, really elegant.

"Never permit yourself to believe that you are an unfortunate person," declared Rothschild. "If you do, you will probably really become such." The people who most loudly declare that they never have opportunities are frequently just those who, when they do come, are so unfitted to avail themselves of them that they can do nothing with them. Keep "fit" for what may happen and the occasion that may arise. Too Tough to Kill. A London Chronicle reporter who was fully alive to the dangers of his situation, wrote as follows from the scene of the recent automobile races at Brighton, England: "Motor cars at racing speed sometimes run out of the course, and to prevent the possibility of any loss of valuable lives the ground level of the promenade will be occupied only by representatives of the press." Mason and Dixon's Line. Recently a third survey of the historic Mason and Dixon's line between Pennsylvania and Maryland has been completed. The new survey was not on account of any dispute as to the boundary, but for the purpose of restoring to their places many of the historic monuments along the line, first surveyed in 1767, which had been removed. Wear of Pavements. In provincial towns in England the creosoted soft wood pavement has a life of from twelve to fifteen years. A St. Pancras, London, where there is a traffic of 411,318 tons per yard of width per annum, the greatest wear of the Australian wood jarrah was 0.18 inch, or less than one-fifth-inch per annum. Chance for Marriage Brokers. If any one of your numerous readers (says a correspondent of a London paper) can introduce me to a girl possessing one-half or even one-quarter of the qualities so enticingly described by the late Max O'Rell, and a marriage results, I will cheerfully undertake to pay him £100 on my wedding day. Electrical Communication. The French Board of Trade publishes a table which shows that Germany has 242,000 employees in the postal telegraph and telephone service. The United States comes next, with 239,000, followed by England, with 184,000, while France has only 81,600. Forestry Agitation in Italy. Virgil in his day spoke of the "waving woods" of Italy. To-day denuded hillsides are the rule, and the strenuous efforts of the "Pro Montibus et Silvis" societies have not yet succeeded in arousing the government to action in the matter of reforesting. World's Windiest City Wellington, the capital of New Zealand, is said to be the windiest city in the world. It is situated on the rim of the funnel that separates the two main islands of which New Zealand is composed. This position makes it a veritable cave of the winds. Iced Drinks Cause Apoplexy. Italian physicians declare that the "American bar" established in their cities in recent years, are responsible with their iced drinks, for the increased number of cases of serious apoplexy in warm, weather. He Waited No Longer. "You may refuse me now," said the persistent sutor, "but I can wait. 'All things come to him who waits.'"

Great Disaster in Italy Grows in Horror with Later Reports—Indescribable Scenes of Terror. Rome, Sept. 10.—Further details of the earthquake show that the damage if far greater than at first supposed. There were probably more than 1,400 persons killed, 3,000 injured and several thousand rendered homeless. At Reggie Dl Calabria the shock lasted thirty seconds and all the population are camping in the streets and public places. The villages of Drapla, Francisca, San Floro, Ionadi, Daffira and Lonzi-one are completely destroyed. Dead and wounded are being dragged from the debris. New shocks are felt this afternoon at Reggie and Messina. All the principal roads near Monteleone are full of people. This town was almost completely destroyed. All the members of one family of eleven persons were killed. Many became insane through fear. At Parghella the number of dead is estimated at $00 and at Lappolio 200. Martirano is entirely in ruins and it is estimated that out of a population of 2,800 there are 2,000 killed or injured. At Torzano there are six victims. At Cosenca, the principal church fell. All the houses that are still standing at Castello, Iala, Castigiloni, Morano, San Lucido, Marlo, Aogentao and San Martino are in danger of falling, and many people have been killed in each place. At Jappolo there are 200 dead, at Borgia four and at San Floro ten. In Pizzo there are 350 dead and half the houses have been destroyed. A woman was found in Pizzo lying on the ground with her two children dead in her arms. At Palmi 300 houses are demolished and it is said slight shocks continue to be felt. From Stromboli all the population have escaped to the Island of Eolie, one of the Lipari group. Many persons are still entombed in the ruins in these and other districts, and touching scenes are enacted when bodies are recovered and identified by grief-stricken relatives. In some cases whole families have been wiped out. Official figures of victims of the earthquake in the province of Catanzaro show that 450 dead have already been found, that about 1,000 were injured and that there are an enormous number of persons without sheltter. The greatest agitation continues among the populace. Slight shocks of earthquake are felt occasionally, and subterranean rumblings are still heard. Those persons still possessing homes refuse to enter them. Vesuvius is still in active eruption and the flow of lava has increased, already passing the rails of the Funicular road and causing great damages to the station at the top. Professors of the Specula Romana say that the volcanic eruptions of Vesuvius and Stromboli are quite distinct from the earthquake and have no relation to it. COLUMBUS DAY. Proclamation for its Celebration Issued by Governor McDonald. Denver, Sept. 10.—Governor McDonald has issued the following proclamation: "State of Colorado, Executive Chamber, Denver. "Proclamation—Columbus Day. "Whereas, The public-spirited Italians of Colorado have displayed a laudable determination to donate to the commonwealth a commemorative monument of the great explorer and discovered, Christopher Columbus, on this year's anniversary of his discovery of the Americas, said monument to be erected in the city of Pueblo; and, "Whereas, ever since the city of Genoa, thirteen years ago, invited the principal American authorities to participate in suitable exercises in honor of the Columbian anniversary, there has been an increasing public demand that this day be set aside as a holiday; and, "Whereas, a proposed law to this effect passed one branch of the last Legis lature and only failed of passage through lack of the necessary time. "Now, therefore, I, Jesse F. McDonald, governor of Colorado, do proclaim Thursday, October 12, 1905, to be Columbus Day, and do call upon all citizens of Colorado to observe the occasion in a manner suitable to its great importance and, moreover, as a day upon which may be gratefully recognized the patriotic Americanism of the Colorado Italians whose generosity prompts them to present to the state an emblem of appreciation of the services to mankind of one of their country men, and a material evidence of the good citizenship of those Americans who belong to the same race as did he. In witness whereof, I have hereunto set my hand and caused the great seal of the state to be affixed, at Denver, the state capitol, this 9th day of September, A. D. 1905. "JESSE F. McDONALD. By the governor, attest: JAMES COWIE, Secretary of State "JAMES COWIE, Lutheran Sanitarium. Denver, Sept. 11.—With appropriate ceremonies, which lasted throughout the day, the new Evangelical Lutheran sanitarium, a mile and a half north of Denver, was dedicated yesterday. The sanitarium was established by Rev. J. F. S. Her of the Denver Lutheran church. The sanitarium is designed to receive and treat consumptives and is supported by the Lutheran church. At present there is a large main building and fifteen tents on the property. The dedication exercises consisted of addresses in German by Rev. Mr. Haynes of Leavenworth, Kansas, one in Norwegian by Rev. John Reini in the morning and one in English by Dr. Her in the afternoon. ARMISTICE IS BEGUN ARMY CHEERS FOR ROOSEVELT Russian Soldiers Celebrate Peace By Feasting and Singing—Officers Holding Races. Gunshu Pass, Manchuria, Sept. 10.—News having been received that peace negotiations at Portsmouth are approaching a conclusion, the correspondent of the Associated Press has made a survey of all the Russian positions from Mongolia to headquarters, the object in part being to ascertain the manner in which the efforts making for peace were viewed by the army. The negotiations received no official recognition in the field prior to their successful conclusion, the army keeping in a state of preparation for a battle until the receipt by General Linevitch of a telegram from Emperor Nicholas declaring that the treaty had been signed and that his majesty accepted the conditions arrived at. This telegram was officially published in the army newspapers on September 6th, and the outlines of the peace conditions were printed in the same publication to-day. The officers thereafted observed military decorum in the strictest sense, but the soldiers, with the consent of the officers, engaged in feasting and other forms of celebration. It will be a week more before the entire army is fully informed of the conclusion of peace, but the news was discounted long since by the prevailing conviction that since the appointment of the plenipotentiaries peace was a foregone conclusion. It may be said that to the great majority of the officers and men so far informed the news that the war is at an end is most welcome. Thousands are daily drinking to the health of President Roosevelt. The correspondent, who is the only remaining foreign newspaper representative with the Russian army, was everywhere asked by the men if he was an American and on being answered in the affirmative, they captured him and tossed him many times in the air after the manner of the Cossacks, while their officers gently protested against the seemingly questionable form of their admiration. Everywhere along the railway where newspapers could be obtained soldiers eagerly scanned the news and then expressed their joy by singing, which they continued late into the night, at intervals cheering for President Roosevelt. The officers are holding races at Toershu and at other places. DEATH OF DAVID A. MILLS. Former Colorado Secretary of State Dies at Denver. Denver, Sept. 11.—David Abner Mills, former secretary of state, a pioneer of Colorado, and for years a leader of the Populist party, died of tumor of the brain at his home, 34 Byers street, at 5:30 yesterday morning. Mr. Mills had been critically ill for several days. Mr. Mills was born in Laceyville, Pennsylvania, September 20, 1850, and received his education in the common schools of that state. He was a diligent student, making a specialty of economic subjects and was learned on matters of public moment. From Pennsylvania he went to Pueblo, Colorado, in 1877, with the intention of making his home there. The California gulch gold fields at Leadville were opened within a year and Mr. Mills determined to try his luck in the mines. He went to Leadville in 1878, and lived there through the entire boom of that camp. He mined in that city, in Aspen and Red Cliff, and in the latter camp was most successful. He was married to Miss Jean Livingstone Forbes in Leadville in 1883. The present governor of the state, Hon. Jesse McDonald, was the best man. In 1895 he moved with his family to Denver. He was a leader in the Populist movement at its beginning and became active in the affairs of the party at Red Cliff. He was elected state senator from the Twenty-first district on the Populist ticket in the election of 1892. He was one of the first chairmen of the state central committee of his party; and it is said, did more than any one man toward achieving success for the Populists. In 1900 he was elected secretary of state on a fusion ticket, being one of the Populist officers chosen to serve with the Democrats. He served with distinction in this office. He was a member of the Mascalc and the Elks lodges of Denver. He is survived by a widow and three children, Edward, Isabelle and David L. Former State Treasurer Dead. Denver, Sept. 11.—Succumbing to a mental affliction with which he had been afflicted for three years, William H. Brisbane, state treasurer under the McIntyre administration, died at his residence, 2093 Ogden street, yesterday morning at 1 o'clock. Death came after a long period of suffering. About three years ago Mr. Brisbane, who at one time was among the wealthiest and most influential citizens of Leadville, was stricken with illness, and within a short time the alliment assumed a serious stage. As one of the pioneers of Leadville and later as a prominent factor in state politics, Mr. Brisbane had a wide circle of acquaintances. He went to Leadville during the boom days of the camp. Through small speculations at the start he soon became one of the most successful men in the camp. For many years he was the senior partner in the firm of Brisbane & DeMaineville, real estate and mining investors, and the concern controlled vast interests. At the time of his death Mr. Brisbane was the owner of the DeMaineville block of Leadville. His partner died several years ago and Mr. Brisbane disposed of most of his holdings in Leadville. Besides a widow, Mr. Brisbane leaves a mother, Mrs. Jennie E. Price, and a four-year-old son, Harry. A twin sister of the latter, named Alice, died about a year ago, but the death was not made known to Mr. Brisbane in his illness, and he was unaware of it when he died.

He was born to know and to know is the highest end of his existence, but what to know and where to learn it will always be an important factor in his ac- quisition of knowledge. Good books, good magizines and good newspapers are in abundance these days are so cheap that everybody can possess them and gain the rip- est and best knowledge obtainable at the smallest cost. Instead of doing this many of our people seem to think and act as though the street corners and curbstones were the only universities in exis- tence and that gossip and street talk the only information worth having. Many of our s0 called good people do not take a news- paper in their home but depend upon street lore to guide them in all their conversation and informa- tion, forgetting that this kind of knowledge is almost worse than trash and is often nothing more than the merest nonsense, Such knowedge as this is often nothing more than mere opinion and con- jecture until it is run through the seive of broad minded men aud the press and there shorn of its exeeressences and fiction and re- duced to solid facts. People who like flurid, undi- gested, yellow gossip will be satis - fied with this kind of information, but those who want clean, clear and solid facts will not care to take it from the street corners and curbstone socioligists. They will take a good reliable newspaper and read the news and results of pub- lic opinion as set forth in the light of clear and logical reasoning and careful investigation. It will save you time and worry and money to read a good newspaper and you will have more reliable informa- tion in the end, therefore take a paper and pay for it and be inde- pendent of sidewalk and backyard gorrip: DO THEY REASON WELL. Two weeks ago an article ap- peared on the leading page of this paper and another in the editorial column calling attention to an ad- vance labor agent from the South who had come North and to the West to secure alien and foreign laborers to take the places of the Negro on the plantations and in the factories of the south. Have the mill owners of the south and the employers of large numbers of nands in the different avocations reckoned as to the results of dis- placing their present employees? Let us see. When the white la- borer goes there the first thing he will do is to organize lubor unions; he will set his own scale of wages and the Southerner will have to pay them or have astrike on his hands. If the people of the South un- dertake to mob him or burn him to the stake he will tind the embass- ador of that citizen’s country knocking at the door at Washing- ton for indemnity; not only this, but the white laborer will vote for whom he pleases and will see that his ballot is ccanted as cast. “Whom the Gods would des- troy they first make angry,” this might aptly be applied to the south. Any body with an ounce of sense can see the difference be- tweenfthe two classes of labor. When this foreign element goes to the south there will be no more “Jim Crow street cars, no more “Jim Crow railroad trains; their will be no signs in the city parks “Dogs and Negroes not allowed.” the trouble with the south is the old slave master and ex-slaves are dying out and the new Negro who can read and write and cipher will not work under the same condi- tions that his parents did. the young Negro fees that he is just as free as his master, therefore he is obnoxious to his white brothers who think that the Negro has_ nc rights which the white man is bound to respect. It will be great blessing to both races when the change is introduc. ed, No people will be prouder and happier to see it than the Negro for he will then scatter to the four winds of the earth and learn to win his bread on the same terms as others who have their la- bor to sell to the highest bidder and to work for whom he please and under the most favorable op- portunities, We fear the proud south has not counted the whole cost. They are reckoning but without their host. The white la- bor will take a hand in dictating the hours, the price, the amount and nature of the work to be done. MISS M. COWDEN HAIR DRESSING PARLOR...

Spiders have always figured largely in the annals of folk medicine.

Provided Inducement to Spend Money Dangerous Habits of Captive Animals Soldiers of Modern Grecian Army Reign of Barbaric Display Over Better Than All Earth’s Glories Gambling Establishments Set Up by Shrewd Employer of Fili- Pino Labor to Keep His Men at Their Work. ‘Victor S. Clark, in his report on 1a- dor conditions in the Philippines, states that indolence in the interior is usually due to the fact that the la- borer cannot make use of the moncy he earns. He tells of a novel device adopted by an American officer to rem- edy the difficulty. “This officer,” he says, “needed labor in order to carry out certain necessary public improve- ments. He engaged sixty natives for ‘this undertaking at a stipulated wage of 30 cents silver currency (12% cents American currency) a day. The first day all the men deserted, because a rumor got around that the Americans, like the Spaniards, would not pay them for public work of thig charac- ter. The men were persuaded to re- turn to work and were paid thejr full wages regularly, as promised. As soon as money began to circulate among them the agents of the nearest Dattos and Sultan came into town in order to get the money away from the workmen on various pretenses. As this discouraged the industry of the la- Never to Be Trusted Even When Seemingly Most Innocent — Humorous Tricks -Played on Modeler While at Work. “Wild animals have a great many ways of showing their contempt for humankind,” said an artist who has made a specialty of modeling animals. “Bvery one has an idea that cle- phants become tame and even fond of people, but this is altogether wrong. They are easily trained, but are never tamed. They are docile just so long as the keeper has 1ys goad in his hand or the memory of a burning endures. Ihad proof of this one day while mod- cling one of the elephants in a big an- imal show.

They are mostly uniformed in two. shades of blue, not unlike the old service uniform of the United States army, but with added trimmings of red. The king's own regiment is at- tired in ruffled shirt waists with gold buttons, short plaited skirts of white material like a ballet dancer, which are said to contain sixty yards of ma- terial, red pointed shoes with a big rosette on the apex, a jaunty cap without a visor, but with a long tassel and a histrionic cloak. Were it not. for magazine rifles, revolvers and knives, you would mistake a group of these soldiers for a greenroom outfit. At the annual carnival this regiment Queen Alexandra Has Set Her Face Against the Wearing of & Profusion of Glittering Jew- elry by Women. They say, observes the Springfield Republican, that Queen Alexandra, feeling that the display of gorgeous Jewels at court or opera or other 0- cial functions is becoming too vulgar, has set example of a change of fashion by wearing studiously simple orna- ments, such as a small pear! collar or mere diamond brooch, which has set in so sharp contrast the bedizened cor- onets and necklaces and hands. quite brillig with rings (“brillig,” vide the Jabberwocky ballad in “Alice in Won- derland”), that the titled women of the court are gradually decreasing their ostentation.

When they had a little money ahead, however, the men began to stop work, as they had nothing to spend it on but rice. The commandant, con- sidering the vice of idleness as repre- hensible as any other, and casting about to create a constant demand for money among his workers, took his cue from what he saw going on about him, and licensed two gambling houses at $100 silver currency ($42 American currency) a month each. After that he had an ample supply of excellent laborers, who worked regularly wit- out persuasion and required little supervision, except for directing their work. When their engagement was finished they came around to the com- mandant, asking that some other pay- ing employment be found for them. ‘The officer who related this experience remarked in all candor: ‘It only re- quires a little diplomacy to make these people industrious.’”"—San Fras- cisco Chronicle. gerous mafiner.

Elks' Big Social Event. ```markdown ``` Rice Lodge No.39 I. B. P. O. of Elks has again demonstrated their qualities in entertaining the people of Denver socially and those who attended their ball at East Turner hall last Thursday night will readily agree with the above statement. It was, what can properly be termed the opening of the season in the realm of social circles. There were five hundred or more who packed the hall to do honor to the Elks' method of entertaining. The grand march was a feature worth of flattering comment not only for the manner in which it was conducted but for its spectacular splendor. The Elks were attired in Prince Alberts with silk hats as a head gear and this together with their badges made them look quite aristocratic. The glazed floor was as slick as glass and the superb music by the Elks' orchestra only added to the pleasure of the dances. Everybody seemed to vie with each other in praising the Elks for the manner in which they were so royally entertained. The success is due largely to the following committee and no little amount of eulogy is being heaped on them for their untiring efforts: J. W. Taylor, chairman; J. W. Levell, J. F. Clark, W. A. Rice, F. L. King, E. L. Shafer, H. R. King, H. J. M. Brown and Louis Epps. We congratulate the Elks for their success and extend our many thanks for their elaborate use of printers ink which always adds to the success of any event.

Sailors Have Sport Racing Turtles Charles Wesley's Seven Thousand Hymns Was Down on Circumstantial Evidence Bereaved Husband Needed the Tiger Life's Sorrows That Quickly Pass Start Big Snappers Across Deck and Bet on Their Finish—Gambler Thinks Track Should Be Built for Them. "I have heard of horse races, bicycle races, foot races, dog races, and a dozen different kinds of races, but never before in my long life have I heard of a turtle race," mused Lem Fugle, the sage, philosopher and guide of the battery, yesterday afternoon, as he hung his feet over the stern of the tugboat E. S. Booth, and puffed nonchalantly at the pipe of peace. "Yes," he continued, "that is the story brought in by the steamship Queen Eleanor from Samarang and Aden. A friend o' mine, who is a stoker on the Queen, told me they had a regular Saratoga during the trip over. The sailors bet their money and when that was lost staked their dunnage on races between a score of big snapping turtles, which were brought over by the men simply to have a little sport with. "On the second day out the sailors dug out a half dozen of the monster snappers and pasted numbers on their backs. Strong ropes were tied around the necks of the turtles, the bets were Charles Wesley's Sev Founder of Church Indefatigable in His Sacred Writings-Commenced at the Age of Twenty-nine. Wonder is always expressed and doubts arise when the statement is made that the Rev. Charles Wesley, a clergyman of the Church of England, actually wrote seven thousand hymns during his lifetime. This statement is verified by the publication over his own signature of thirty-nine books of poetry, sacred and secular. It is doubtful if there exists a hymn book adopted by any religious denomination which does not contain several of his sacred songs. Thomas Moore wrote very few sacred songs, but of these few one stands out pre-eminent and will be sung till time be no more by the people of this whole earth. "This song, that always reaches the heart, is "Come, Ye Disconsolate," found in almost every hymn book and never accredited to the author. The Rev. Charles Wesley must have been writing hymns all his life, and it is recorded of him that he wrote on horseback while travelling Was Down on Circus Man Arrested for Complicity in Bank Robbery Had Reasons for His Belief—Unfortunate in Love Affaire. "As to circumstantial evidences, it's a queer thing," said the man in the brown suit. "Five or six years ago I was in a certain town for a night when a bank was robbed. Next morning I was arrested as an accomplice, it being contended that I was seen idling in front of the bank and evidently acting as sentinel to those within. Three different persons identified me as the man, and a fourth claimed to have seen me enter the hotel at a late hour by way of a shed and a window. I was locked up for examination, and with a chance of things going hard with me, when evidence began to come forward on my side. "The landlord asserted and swore that I was sitting in the office at 10 o'clock p. m. Two servants swore they saw me going to my room half an hour later. A man having rooms opposite the hotel swore that he saw me smoking at my window at mid- Bereaved Husband His Wife Had Recently Died and He Was Seeking Congenial Society — English Newspaper Responsible for Story. At a sale of animals from a hippodrome a tiger was being offered. The highest bid was made by a man who was a stranger, and to him it was knocked down. The owner of the animal, who had been eyeing the stranger uneasily during the bidding, then went up to him and said: "Pardon me for asking the question, but will you tell me where you are from?" "From the country," responded the man. "Are you connected with any show?" "No." "And are you buying this animal for yourself?" "Yes." The showman shifted about for a Life's Sorrows T "You with Your Chains That Are Riveted Fast, Remember Tomorrow This Day Will Be Part of the Past." By to-morrow this day will be part of the past, By to-morrow the ache you are thinking must last As long as winds blow and white rivulets in As long as the world may be warmed by the sun— By to-morrow the ache that is deep in your heart May be gladly forgot, or recalled as the smart Of a wound that was trifling, and, looking ahead. You may gaze on fair prospects all fairly aglow placed, and the snappers sailed away from the 'post' in a manner much similar to the way the horses leave the scratch line at a race track. "The after deck of the steamer was made a race track. There was a real bookmaker, and several dollars of real money 'changed hands.' The heavy losers wailed and declared No. 3 or No. 6 was a dead one, and could not get around the track unless it was carried." Lem Fugle refilled his pipe and looked wistfully at the entries in tomorrow's races, carefully picking out the winners, and assuring the reporter what a "cinch" Mad Mullah would be "for show." "I have gambled on every kind of race that has ever been run, with the exception of the turtle race," spoke the sage in a sorrowful tone, "and I think it is up to the sports of New York to build a track for racing the crust covered creatures. You can put me down on the list as a charter member of the Metropolitan Turtle Racing association," said Mr. Fugle, and the tugboat E. S.

In those days graphite pencils and flowing pens were unknown, and he wrote with a piece of soft lead he always carried with him on any old scrap of paper. He lived to be 80 years of age, and was born in 1708. The hymns of Dr. Watts come next in number to those of Charles Wesley, namely, 697, but they mostly appealed to children, although never forgotten in later years. The fact is that Wesley commenced writing his sacred hymns at the age 29. The Methodist hymn book in this country, as well as the Wesleyan hymn book in England, being so replete with the hymns of Charles Wesley is accounted for by the fact that both Charles and his brother John were clergymen of the Church of England, but John, taking exception to some part of the ritual of that church went out to preach to the multitudes, and after he had organized what his followers called the Wesleyan church his brother Charles joined him and wrote the hymns, to which were added the favorite hymns of other sacred writers. night. A guest of the hotel who had a room next to mine swore that my snores disturbed him from midnight till 2 o'clock and that he heard me turn over in bed at 3, and so I was honorably discharged from custody." "But about it being queer?" was asked. "Why, all the people on both sides were mistaken. I was not outside the bank at the times named and neither was I in the hotel." "But you were somewhere?" But you were somewhere. "Oh, of course. Fact is, I got mashed on the landlord's daughter and we sat up all night in a balcony and talked love and looked at the moonlight. Yes, sir, sat there all night like a couple of idiots, and though I declared I would die for her and she said she only wanted me and a humble cottage, she was married to a red-haired butcher within a year and I was being sued by a snub-nosed widow for breach of promise. I was simply observing, you know, that circumstantial evidence is a queer thing and I wish to add that a juryman shouldn't be influenced too much by it."—Tid-Bits. few moments, looking alternately at the man and the tiger, evidently trying his best to reconcile the two. "Now, young man," he finally said, "you need not take this animal unless you want to, for there are those here who will take it off your hands." "I don't want to sell," was the quiet reply. "What on earth are you going to do with such an ugly beast if you have no show of your own and are not buying for someone who is a showman?" "Well, I'll tell you," said the purchaser. "My wife died about three weeks ago. We had lived together for ten years, and—and I miss her." He paused to wipe his eyes and steady his voice, and then added: "So I've bought the tiger." "I understand you," said the great showman in a husky voice, as he turned to hide his emotion—London Tit-Bits.

In the reading room of the British museum the desks are crowded with students all day long, and in addition to the books of reference some 20,000 in number, which fill the open shelves of the room, from 3,000 to 4,000 volumes are given out every day. Theology in a wide sense, including the Bible, biblical literature, church history and works on the religious rites and ceremonies of all races and creeds, is easily at the head of the list, with about 300 volumes. Topography comes next, with about twenty fewer, and of these books on London amount to a quarter, books on English topography to another quarter, the other half being for the rest of the world. History and biography come next, English history being mostly in demand, and books on France and the French province second. Essays, criticisms and miscellaneous literature take the fourth place and are followed by fiction—not less than five years old—moral philosophy, poetry and the fine arts, the drama, law and philology, political economy and so on down to politics, mathematics and chemistry, which have about forty volumes apiece, and lastly works on naval and military subjects, which seldom have more than three or four volumes each. It is a curious list and throws a useful light on the sort of studies taken up by the readers in the museum.—London Globe. Progress in Steam Turbines Progress in Steam Turbines. That the actual displacement of the reciprocating steam engine by the steam turbine for many purposes is proceeding at a rapid pace in this country is indicated in the statement that a single company, manufacturing but one of the several types of steam turbines in the United States, took orders within the last half year for turbines for generating electricity having a capacity of 82,000 kilowatts, or nearly 110,000 horse power. Three of these engines are for a Brooklyn power station and will be the largest ever constructed. It is interesting to note in this connection that wonderful as is the transformation in power mechanism, there are engineers who predict a still more radical change in the not distant future in the development of power from gas engines. This form of engine has been developed to a marked extent in Europe, especially in Germany, and American and English engineers are just beginning to awake to the possibilities in this direction. According to one authority, "we may yet see steam engines and turbines sent to the scrap heap." —Philadelphia Ledger. A Little Bit. "Any news down my way?" repeated the farmer as he stopped his team and bit a chew off his plug. "Wall, I kir give ye a leetle bit, I guess. It hain't earthquakes nor cyclones, but it does purty well for our place." "Well?" queried the tollgate man. "Wall, the news is that Jim Williams' wife's canary bird got out of the cage the other day, and she had to chase it more'n two hours to get it back." "That isn't much news." "Nope. I 'spose not; but I was savin' the best for the last." "And what is it?" "Why, a tin peddler come along and bot Joe Harkins that he could outjump him, and Joe held his breath and jumped seven feet and won the be, and it's already settled that we are to run him for the Legislature next fall." Value of Study of Greek President Hadley of Yale has lately declared that the old school college and university instructors who set great store upon Greek as a means of mental discipline and development were half right and half wrong. They were right, he says, in holding that hard work and precision of thought were more important by far than immediate utility or the student's natural interest in the subject studied. But they were wrong, President Hadley maintains, in supposing that Greek was necessarily more effective than other subjects of study can be made. Spirit Bridal.

"More trouble," sighed McNutty, putting on his coat. "If it ain't one thing it's another." "What's the matter now?" queried his good wife. "More labor troubles," answered McNutty. "Not another lockout, I hope," said the partner of his sorrows. "No, it's worse than that," answered the alleged head of the house.

NOISES IN HER HEAD Mrs. Reagan was a Nervous Wreck, But Dr. Williams' Pink Pills Brought Sound Health. "Before I began to take Dr. Williams' Pink Pills," said Mrs. Mary Reagan, of No. 86 Kilburn street, Fall River, Mass., recently, "I was in and out of bed all the time, but now I stay up all day and do all my own work. "I was badly run down from over- work. One day noises began in my head and almost made me crazy. My head felt as if a tight band had been put around it, and the pressure and the sounds made me so uneasy that I often had to walk the floor all night. "My stomach was in bad shape, and I had smothering sensations. At such times my body seemed bloodless, my hands were like chalk and my face turned yellow. The doctor said I had dyspepsia in the worst form. Then my nerves gave way and I was completely prostrated. I frequently suffered from smothering sensations. "The first box of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills that I used quieted my nerves so that I could get a good night's sleep, which was a new experience for me. Before I began to use them I was a nervous wreck and trembled at the slightest sound. I was so weak that I had to sit down and rest every few steps when I went up stairs. Now I can run up a whole flight at once. The smothering sensations have gone and the noises in my head have stopped entirely. My appearance has greatly improved, for friends who were alarmed on my account before, now say: 'How well you are looking!' My husband spent over a hundred dollars on treatment for me that was worthless, but a few boxes of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills brought me sound health."

PAINFUL PERIODS AMERICAN WOMEN FIND RELIEF The Case of Miss Irene Crosby Is One of Thousands of Cures Made by Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. How many women realize that menstruation is the balance wheel of a woman's life, and while no woman is entirely free from periodical suffering, it is not the plan of nature that women should suffer so severely. Miss Irene Crosby Thousands of American women, however, have found relief from all monthly suffering by taking Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, as it is the most thorough female regulator known to medical science. It cures the condition which causes so much discomfort and robs menstruation of its terrors. Miss Irene Crosby, of 313 Charlton Street East Savannah, Ga., writes: "Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound is a true friend to woman. It has been of great help in menstruation, and painful menstruation when everything else had failed, and I gladly recommend it to other suffering women." Women who are troubled with painful or irregular menstruation, backache, bloating (or flatulence), leucorrhoea, 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 ward 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., Lynn, Mass., for further free advice. Thousands have been cured by to doing ATNONE WOOD IS FREE IS PAROLED AND STARTS EAST Noted Boy Murderer Will Be Given a Chance With Elbert Hubbard at the Roycroft Shops. Denver, Colo., Sept. 13.—A Canon City special to the Republican yesterday, says: "Antone Wood, known as the boy murderer, whose case has attracted wide attention since his conviction years ago, to-day passed out through the prison gates from the prison within which he had been confined over twere years, and since he was eleven years of age. In company with Willard Cleghorn, son of Warden Cleghorn, and James C. Peabody, son of former Governor Peabody, he will go to East Aurora, New York, where he will enter the Roycrofter's establishment under an assumed name with the avowed purpose of beginning life anew and making of himself an honorable citizen under the direction of Elbert Hubbard. Wood's conduct as a prisoner was generally good and he was allowed liberties such as few prisoners enjoyed. Once during his imprisonment, Wood committed an offense by which he forfeited the sympathy of a large number of the citizens of Canon City. During Warden Hoyt's administration a break for liberty was made in the penitentiary and in which several prisoners, Wood among the number, made their escape, Night Captain Rooney losing his life. It was said that Wood held the arms of Rooney while companions stabbed him to death. One of the men who killed the night captain was captured and lynched by enraged citizens in front of the prison gates. Wood was recaptured and snuggled into the penitentiary under a load of hay to avoid a lynching. Wood, however, redeemed himself to a considerable extent during the outbreak about two years ago when five prisoners seized the warden's wife, dynamited the gates and doors and escaped. All were either recaptured or killed shortly afterwards. It was on this occasion that Wood, at the peril of his life, gave the alarm in the prison office and thereby perhaps saved the lives of several of the prison officials and also made possible the prompt capture or killing of the desperadoes who made the break. Wood, during his prison career, showed remarkable talent as an artist, a penman and a musician, and it these qualities that attracted the attention of persons of influence who, from time to time, tried to secure his release. Personally, Wood is a young man of handsome appearance and pleasant address, and to-day, attired in a neat black suit, no stranger would suspect that twelve years of his life had been spent as a convict. The unexpired term of his sentence is about two years. The crime for which Wood was convicted was the murder of a man, his companion and friend, while the two were hunting. The victim exhibited a watch which aroused the boy's cupidity and the latter stepping behind the man, shot him dead. WORLD'S HIGHEST BRIDGE Formally Opened on the Zambesi River in Africa. Victoria Falls, Zambesi River, East Africa, Sept. 13.—The bridge over the Zambesi river was formally opened yesterday in the presence of the visiting members of the British Association. Professor Darwin made the opening speech. He commented upon the remarkable achievement which permitted a party traveling in electric salon cars to visit a place which heroic explorers had spent months of fruitless endeavor to reach. At the conclusion of his speech Professor Darwin touched an electric button which fused a wire stretched across the track of the bridge, and an engine decorated with union jacks proceeded on an excursion to Livingstone Island. The bridge over the Zambesi river, the highest in the world, was linked up at 7 a.m. April 1st of the present year, thus completing a link in the Cape-to-Cairo railway. The bridge, which is of the cantilever type, is 420 feet above the river at low water and crosses over the gorge at Victoria Falls. The Cape-to-Cairo railway is an endeavor initiated by the late Cecil Rhodes to connect Egypt and South Africa by a line 3,700 miles long. From the north the railway has reached Khartoum, a distance (allowing for the river gap between Assouan and Wady Halfa) of 1,400 miles. In the south good progress has been made north of the Zambesi on the section known as the northern extension, from the Victoria Falls to Kalama, the administrative center of Barotseland, a distance of 100 miles. From Kalama the line is to be continued another 250 miles in a northeasterly direction. It is probable that from Tanganyika there will be two lines, one through the Congo and another through German territory. Masonic Meetings in Denver. Denver, Sept. 13.—Three Masonic organizations of Colorado are making preparations to hold their annual sessions in Denver this month. On September 19th the Forty-fifth annual communication of the Grand Lodge, A. F. & A. M., of Colorado will be held in this city. The communication will begin at 10 o'clock next Tuesday morning and continue through the next day. The most excellent grand royal arch chapter of Colorado will hold its thirty-first annual convocation in Denver on September 20th. The convocation will begin at 10 o'clock in the morning. On September 21st, the thirtieth annual conclave of the grand commandery, Knights Templar, of Colorado, will begin in Denver at 10 o'clock in the morning. Pat Crowe Again Lights. Lincoln, Neb., Sept. 13.—Pat Crowe, wanted on a charge of kidnapping the little son of Edward Cudahy, in Omaha, was in Lincoln Monday and talked for half an hour with Richard Metcalfe, associate editor of William J.

Scientists Have Succeeded in Plucking Real Diamonds and Rubies from the Crucible of the Furnace. Recent advices from France state that Prof. Moissan, the eminent scientist and inventor, has actually succeeded in making genuine diamonds and rubies. He employs for this purpose the electric furnace, which has been so improved that a degree of heat can be produced, approaching the extreme temperatures, which were undoubtedly a factor in the formation of minerals and gems in the interior of the earth. The rubles obtained are of large size, weighing 10 or 15 carats, and in quality and color equal and even surpass those found in the earth. The natural forces attending the formation of diamonds seem to have been more complicated, and so far the diamonds resulting from the efforts of the scientists have been very small, but still they are positively identified as the carbon crystal—the diamond. They are remarkably clear and bright, and on a small scale as fine specimens as nature's own product. The electric furnace has enriched chemistry with a whole series of new compounds. Probably the one of most value to mankind at large is Calcium Carbide. The simple application of water to Calcium Carbide generates the gas Acetylene, which is now being commonly used for lighting. The peculiar merits of Acetylene light are its brilliance and high candle power, ease of installation, economy and its adaptability for lighting buildings of every description, regardless of their location.

How China Boycotts America. Since the boxer uprising nothing has happened to stir up the people of China so much as the present agitation against the United States, sits a Chee-Foo correspondent of Leslie's Weekly. This is a commercial demonstration made in view of the renewal of the treaty between these two countries regarding the entrance and residence of Chinese subjects in the United States. The present movement is one to boycott all American trade, all schools conducted by Americans, and all American employers in all the ports of China. It ranges from Singapore on the south to Tien-Tsin on the north, and from Shanghai on the east coast to Ichang in the west, a thousand miles up the Yangtse river. It is most virulent at Canton and Shanghai. The powerful Chinese merchant guilds are pushing the matter, and as they have branches in every port city of China they wield considerable power. Even the old Empress Dowager, who probably had never spent a thought before on the difficulties of a Canton cooleer entering the Golden Gate, has been led to express her sympathy with her "ill-treated children." The student class, who are much concerned in the treaty, have taken up the movement eagerly, and as a result one mission school in Shanghai had to close its doors, and several other larger institutions were depleted of a large number of students because of this boycott. Meetings are held to agitate the subject, and placards are distributed or posted in conspicuous places. STRONGER THAN MEAT. A judges Opinion of Grape-Nuts. A gentleman who has acquired a judicial turn of mind from experience on the bench out in the Sunflower State, writes a carefully considered opinion as to the value of Grape-Nuts as food. He says: "For the past 5 years Grape-Nuts has been a prominent feature in our bill of fare. "The crisp food with the delicious, nutty flavor has become an indispensable necessity in my family's everyday life. "It has proved to be most healthful and beneficial, and has enabled us to practically abolish pastry and pies from our table, for the children prefer Grape-Nuts and do not crave rich and unwholesome food. "Grape-Nuts keeps us all in perfect physical condition—as a preventive of disease it is beyond value. I have been particularly impressed by the beneficial effects of Grape-Nuts when used by ladies who are troubled with face blemishes, skin eruptions, etc. It clears up the complexion wonderfully. "As to its nutritive qualities, my experience is that one small dish of Grape-Nuts is superior to a pound of meat for breakfast, which is an important consideration for anyone. It satisfies the appetite and strengthens the power of resisting fatigue, while its use involves none of the disagreeable consequences that sometimes follow a meat breakfast." Name given by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich. There's a reason. ASSAULT AT LA SALLE NEGRO TRAMPS FIGHT OFFICER Constable Paul Gregory Baaly Cut by Tramps Whom He Had Ordered to Leave Town. Denver, Colo, Sept. 14.—A Republican special from Greeley last night says: Paul Gregory, constable of La Salle, lies at his home in a critical condition with a three-inch deep gash a foot long across his left hip, a cut to the bone back of his knee and two ugly wounds in his neck near the jugular vein, all inflicted by three negroes whom Gregory had ordered out of La Salle station for creating a disturbance there. At 2 o'clock this afternoon Gregory was called to quell trouble among the negroes. He told them to leave the town. Two of them resented the order, but started off reluctantly. The third negro appeared intoxicated and Gregory decided to accompany the other two a short distance and then come back for the third one. When he returned for the third man and drew near him, the negro picked up a heavy piece of slag and threw it at the officer. The slag hit Gregory in the temple and felled him to the ground. Before he could rise the three negroes sprang upon him and took his gun away. The smaller of the three drew a big jackknife and struck him in the neck. Gregory, who is a powerful man, attempted to throw his assailants off. They repeatedly struck him with the knife. One of the men then held his leg while the other bearing on with all his weight drew the knife across Gregory's hip, remarking as he did so: "I am a good cutter, am I not?" The negroes would have murdered the officer had not two men loading grain near by rushed to his assistance. The negroes saw them coming and ran down the railroad track. News of the assault spread like wildfire and in less than twenty minutes an armed posse of fifty farmers under the leadership of L. Ogilvy was scouring the country for the negroes. They were soon located in a swamp surrounded by small bushes a mile and a half south of La Salle. The farmers ordered the men to come out of their hiding places and hold up their hands. At first they refused to do so, then the posse opened fire on them, which was returned by the negroes. Two of them came out of the bushes and finally the third man appeared carrying Gregory's gun. Sheriff Florence and Deputy Camp then appeared, having driven from Greeley to -La Salle in a few minutes. There were cries of "lynch them." but the officers were finally allowed to take the men. Meantime Gregory had been carried to his home, where two physicians were summoned. A large crowd had gathered about his residence and vowed vengeance on his assailants. The negroes were hurried into town and lodged in jail. A close watch is kept over them, as feeling is high. The negroes give their names as F. Collins, Kansas City, thirty-three years old; William Marshall, Marshall, Missouri, thirty years old, and recently employed as a hod carrier at Ault, Colorado, and William White of Atlanta, Georgia, twenty-eight years old. The latter said he conducted a tailor shop recently at Los Angeles. Officer Gregory is suffering from loss of blood and nervous shock and is in great danger of blood poisoning. Federation Elects Officers. Salida, Colo., Sept. 14.—The afternoon session of the State Federation of Labor yesterday was devoted exclusively to resolutions and the election of officers. The business of the meeting was concluded and Colorado Springs chosen for the next meeting place.

Hanged in Penitentiary Denver, Colo., Sept. 14.—For the cowardly murder of his benefactor, John H. Fox at Trinidad, May 8th, Joseph Johnson was hanged in the penitentiary at Canon City yesterday. Fox, who was former county treasurer and a leading politician of Las Animas county, was reading a letter when Johnson crept behind him and blew out his brains. A desperate attempt was made to lynch Johnson and a repetition at the trial was averted by the sheriff's guarantee that the murderer would be legally hanged. Johnson was about fifty-eight years of age and had lived in Trinidad all of his life. He killed a man several years ago, but as there were some extinguishing circumstances he escaped punishment, largely through the efforts of John H. Fox, whom he subsequently murdered without cause. First Train Reaches Goldfield. Goldfield, Nev., Sept. 14.—The first train over the Goldfield road arrived here Monday night.

About tnirty minutes later-the Rio Grande brought in a long train of coaches packed to the guards with more Den: yerites, and on this train were Mayor Speer and his official party.

Four hundred troops were ordered sent from Tokio on a special train, a little before dawn, and soldiers are now guarding the consulates, the ware- houses containing explosives and the oil tanks. ‘The meeting held at a theater yes- terday to protest against the terms of the peace treaty was followed by an antl-police demonstration. Fourteen police boxes were burned, forty po}ice- men injured and two civilians severely hurt. ‘The police say that the meeting was the private speculation of a profes: sional agitator who charged an admis- sion fee. The promise that there would be popular speakers was unauchorized, according to the police, and the disap- pointed eudience denounced the swin- dle and demanded the return of their money. The trouble finally developed into rowdyism outside the theater. Weld County Beet Cron.

Asidineasi vation Curtous Facts About Suicide. Prof. William B. Bailey of Yale has brought out some interesting facts ‘based on 29,344 cases of suicide, cover- ing the period from 1897 to 1901, saya ‘Leslie’s Weekly. Using the 10,000 unit, he finds that 7,781 males and 2,219 females found life intolerable, ‘and, despairing of mending, ended it, ‘This leaves the ratio of cowardice 344 to 1 in favor of feminine courage. ~Al- most two-thirds of the suicides oc- curred between the ages of twenty and fifty. Curiously enough, there are more married than single suicides. While married men are more likely to take the plunge than married women, single, widowed and divorced women are more prone to kill themselves than ‘unattached males. Business losses ‘are more likely to drive people to sul- cide than iil health, insanity, disap- ‘pointment in love or strong drink. Postal Savings Banks. ‘The annual report of the British postoffice savings bank for last year shows that the total amount due de- positors on December Sist last was over £148,000,000.

Mrs. Hart was in bed for eight months and when she was able to sit up she was all drawn up on one side and could noc walk across the room. Dodd’s Kidney Pills cured her, Speak- ing of her cure, Mrs. Hart says: “Yes, Dodd’s Kidney Pills cured me after I was in bed for eight months and I know the cure was complete for that was three years ago and I have not been down since. In four weeks from the time I started taking them I was able to make my garden. _No- body can know how thankful I am to be cured or how much I feel I owe to Dodd’s Kidney Pills.” This case again points out how much the general health depends on the Kidneys. Cure the Kidneys with Dodd's Kiiney Pills and nine-tenths of the suffering the human family is heir to, will disappear. Dixon—I understand your wife is a strong-minded woman.

Broadcloths which are as glossy as satin will be much worn and Henri- etta cloth and cashmere. For every- day frocks there are the supple French serges, the wool mixtures in fascinating color combinations, the Venetian cloths, and the perennially popular cheviots: and tweeds., The circular skirt will be prominent in the new modes, and the tunic skirt will be seen in a variety of styles. Both short and long coats will be the fashion. In separate waists there are to be variations of the surplice style. Many greens will be worn throughout the autumn and winter. Red {s also fashionable. The grays, especially the shades known as smoke and Lon- don fog, are particularly good style. Electric blue, the plum, prune and dahlia tints and the bronze and 1a- hogany shades will also be worn.— Grace Margaret Gould in Woman's Home Companion. Lace Blouse.

Kilting continues popular; the plaits growing narrower and more numerous, and fitted more carefully to the hips. The French models show much shirring, and in response the American dressmakers are introducing gores gathered or gauged into the belt, between groups of plaits. The newest modification of ‘the fashionable circular skirt has a Dias effect in the front and at the sides and full plaits in the back. It 4s also marked by the revived gradu- ated flounce. In tailored gowns the line of union is left plain, or else it is emphasized by a shaped fold finished with fine cord. Occasionally this fold is built up in a sort of ladder-work of narrow bands of cloth or of rows of soutache dyed to match the goods. There are strong indications that the apron front will presently be revived, and some. of the most jealously guard- ed importations show a still more daring innovation in the lines of the skirt, For example, a chiffon velvet gown in cut-strawberry color -has its front gore laid in shallow but unmis- takable drapery folds, just below the belt ‘and parallel with its dip. The ends of these drapery curves disap- pear beneath the narrow box-plaits in the adjoining gores.” Quince Parfait.

Make a lather of pure soap with a little ammonia in it, using about a quart of water or more if the feathers are very large. Move them to and fro gently in this, then lightly press them stem to tip between the thumb and finger and do the ‘same in an equal amount of clear hot water. Repeat in cold water, slightly tinted with blue. Hang feathers up to dry where there Is a draft and shake at in- tervals. Before quite dry gently shake them before a gas stove or they can be partially dried by steam over a pan of quick boiling water and finished as directed. Comb carefully and curl any stray strands with a silver knife. Pickled Walnuts. Gather the walnuts while young and green and lay in brine strong enough to bear up an egg. Leave in this for week, changing for fresh brine every day. At the end of the week drain, pierce each walnut with a needle and throw into cold water. Drain again and pack in jars. Bring to a boil two quarts of vinegar to which have been added a half-cup of sugar, a dozen whole cloves, black peppers and allspice and six blades of mace. Boll five minutes, then fill the Jars of walnuts to overflowing with the boiling liquid and seal. A Traveling Hint. “Wherever I go,” said the experl- enced woman traveler, “I carry a light with me. One can never tell when it will be needed. In a small and convenient box in my suitease I have a white wax candle and a tiny box of matches that strike easily. I can get at these in a minute and wouldn't feel safe to go to bed with- out them near at hand. Stray ealilenn iver. Ivory can be cleansed and the color in some measure restored by well washing it with plenty of soap and water, and then exposing it to the sun just as you lift it straight from the suds, being caréful to keep the tvory wetted with soapsuds as long as it is in the sun; as soon as it is whitened wash and rinse it well in clean, cold water acidulated with lemon juice, and then dry very carefully. A lemon dipped in fine salt and well rubbed on is also effectual for remov- ing ink and other stains from ivory. In extreme cases a solution of one ounce oxalic acid (poison) in one-half pint of water, well rubbed on with a stiff brush, the ivory being then well rinsed, dried with a soft cloth and left near, but not actually in front of the fire, is also very effectual if care- fully handled.

Because heavy linen embroidery in close or open work happens to be a fashionable trimming item on alll sorts of costumes it does not follow—nor was it ever intended to mean—that any old half-soiled bit might be put to service in that way.
