Study Negroes. Says Archbishop J. J. Glennon Church to Uplift Race--C First Step--Discip Says Archbishop J. J. Glennon, in his Sermon in St. Louis. Church to Uplift Race--Control of Emotions is the First Step--Discipline the Remedy. The subject of the Negro problem was taken up by Archbishop J. J. Glennon in his first sermon of the season, Sunday, at the New Cathedral chapel. A large congregation attended the mass, this being the first time that the archbishop had been heard in St. Louis since his visit to Europe. "Yesterday," the archbisnop said, in beginning his sermon, "we had the dedication of a new asylum for colored children, and I saw there a number of these little ones cared for by the colored community of sisters, and I saw there a number of our people, white and colored, attending this function. I had some words to say to those who were present, but in that background of what I had to say to them there loomed this great question that is not settled yet. That is the race question; the question of the colored people, their future association with the other people who dwell in these United States. "Possibly there will never be written down for this problem an exact solution on paper or in formal. It is a unique question that does not exist with the same accentuation anywhere as it does in the United States. The Celtic, Teutonic, Saxon, or whatever may be the original racial blood of the people of the United States, all represent more than 1000 years of civilization and culture, and where their is civilization and culture from year to year, and generation to generation, there must be an accumulated heredity springing therefrom. While individuals may be decadent, yet, the race exhibits that prental civilization. Consequently, we have on the one hand here a race that perhaps has reached the highest point of civilization today, and on the other we have a race that has back of it no civilization; a nation that is racially at the very antithesis of the white race. And yet by closer political and local association these two racer have come together to work out their salvation as best they may. "In Europe they do not understand this condition, because in Europe there is a gradual declination from race to race. The Swedish people co-mingle with the North German; the North German associataes with the South German, the South German with the Latin, the Latin with the Egyp- VOL. XII.

Control of Emotions is theoline the Remedy. tian, the Egyptian with the Abyssinian, and the Abyssinian with the Hottentots, and thus step by step the declension goes on, but there is no accentuated difference between race and race. In the United States they have tried to solve this question by the civil war. There were many who thought they have solved it by the success of the abolition of slavery, and that part of the success of the United States arms is today admitted and applauded by all the citizens, because slavery is wrong. But that they have thereby solved the entire question of the colored race and its future is doubted by many. "Some think it will be solved by education, and hence the proper thing to do is intrench the colored people in their political, civil, social rights or whatever rights they may have, by placing education before them, by building high schools and universities and training them to the point where they are absolutely the intellectual equal of the white man. But there are others who think after the high school and the university have done all possible for the colored race, we shall still have the same old problem. "It appears to us the sanest way to secure a solution of the problem would be to steady the race according to its own proper genius, for every race has its own characteristics, its own trend of racial and national life, its own way of growing as we believe all races should grow, up and onward. This is true of the white race, it is true of the colored race. The characteristic of the colored people can be summed up very readily. The colored people have hearts, they are emotional, they are imitative; they are faithful, provided the temptations to infidelity are not too strong; they are obedient if they are trained to obedience; they are believers almost to the point of credulousness. The very first thing to do is to get them to control their emotions, to train their hearts and develop their moral nature. Their faculty of belief, which is good in itself, ought to be utilized to their uplifting." The archbishop saw in religion the final hope of the colored race, and said it was only by the discipline of Christianity that they could be lifted to better things. State Historical and Natural History Society, Denver, Colo Colored Buggy Whip Mob. "Recently at Waco, Tex," says an Exchange, "100 colored men visited the county jail armed with buggy whips, demanding of the jailor that he turn over to them Arthur Shelby and Dub Hargrove, two colored men who were arrested for criminally assaulting a colored woman. The crowd said they wanted to show their disapproval of such crimes. They offered to return the men to jail after whipping them. The request was not granted. That whole dog-goned bunch are a gang of cowards. Hundreds of their women are beaten and outraged yearly by some white man, and we are yet to hear of a mob of colored men in bloody Texas demanding that the brute be turned over to them, and until the colored men in Texas as well as elsewhere are in a position—or, in other words, brave and courageous enough—to enforce the unwritten laws of that hell hole on any man regardless of his nationality or color who dare criminally assault their women. The proper and manly thing to do is to let the law take its course, on the the other hand. It is no credit or honor to any race or nation to resort to mob law for any cause, and the colored man is no exception to the rule." Color Line in Game of Football. Fort Collins, Colo., Oct. 7.—The color question came near disrupting relations between the various colleges of the state to day, when, on the lineup for football, Denver university found a colored man planing on the team of the State Agricultural college. The Denver contingent at once raised objections. The white men from Denver refused to play against the Aggies with a "cloud" on their team. They would confront no team with a black man on it. The Aggies insisted that they had a right to play a black man so long as it was a "practice" game. With the tentative understanding that the Aggies would not insist upon playing the Negro when it came to professional games the Denver university team went to the line. The intercollegiate Athletic association comprises all the more important colleges and universities of the state. Denver university, which drew the color line, is a sectarian school of the Methodist denomination. This faith has always professed the utmost liberality in social matters and consequently the event has caused a stir, not only among college mer, but also among churchmen. Paradoxical as it may seem, a Southernner, as captain of the Aggies, stood for the Negro, and a Northerner, captain of the D. U.'s, opposed. COMMENT ON THE AFFAIR. My personal feeling in the matter is that no color line should be drawn in football. It is unfortunate that the question should have been raised, and I trust that the incident will not be magnified into anything of much importance. We should ignore the question entirely.—Prof. Alderson, Pres. School of Mines. Colored men are used in Colorado college athletics whenever they prove their merit. They have played on our football team, and where they show ability in that or any other line they will be recognized. Colorado college is open to students of all colors and races. Pres. W.F. Slocum of Colorado College This is a state institution, and under the constitution it cannot draw the color line. The Agricultural college receives support both from the state and the national government, and as the constitution makes no discrimination neither can the school. B. O. Aylesworth, President Agricultural College. Bill to Reduce Representation. New York, Oct. 10. "In the last session of congress, Senator Platt of New York introduced a bill providing for a reduction in the congressional representation from those states which disfranchise all, or a part, of the Negro vote. I presume that in the session of congress about to begin, Mr. Platt will reintroduce that measurs. I want to serve notice on him and those here in New York City who were responsible for it, that if its passage is seriously attempted, Mr. Platt, will discover a buzz-saw revolving at a rate that will appall him." This was said yesterday by Senator Simmons of North Carolina, who is in New York. Mr. Simmons, with Senator Goman of Maryland, will lead the fight against Southern reduction when it begins in the senate, if Mr. Platt again offers his bill. "Mr. Platt is aiming principally at North Carolina, Mississippi and Alabama when he seeks to have his resolution passed," said Senator Simmons, "but in fact he is hitting the whole South. The Platt resolution cannot pass, and the Republican club and its associates who are agitating the question ought to know it." Silverton Notes.

Bub Rogan, Tennessee's Afro-American giant, died a few days ago in Gallatin. He was eight feet nine inches tall. His hands were 12 inches in length and feet 161/2 inches. He was drawn around by two goats his legs being too slender to support his body. He was 36 years old. The city council at Pensacola, Fla., passed the "Jim Crow" street car ordinance over the mayor's veto, by a unanimous vote. Mayor Bliss vetoed the ordinance on the ground that the section exempting colored nurses when accompanied by white charges from the operations of the law, was unconstitutional. The ordinance will go into effect in fifteen days. The entire brickmaking business of Farmville, Va., and vicinity is in the hands of one colored man—a freedman who bought his own and his family's freedom, purchased his master's estate and eventually hired his master to work for him. He owns more than 1000 acres of land in Cumberland county and considerable property in the town of Farmville. W. H. Dammon, formerly of Detroit, an Afro-American, and assistant bridge engineer for the Michigan Central Railway, has invented a railway blood signal which practically eliminates collisions on railways either between trains or with any kind of obstruction on the track. It is operated by means of electricity and is by far the most improved system of signaling now known. Chicago, Oct. 7.—Fifty members of the Southern "yellow fever colony" walked out out yesterday when Sam Hansom, halfback of the Beloit football team seated himself in the dinning hall of the fashionable Del Prado hotel. Headed by Murray F. Smith, general Southern counsel for the Illinois Central, and a resident of NO. 3 Vicksburg, all of the Southern guests protested to the manager. W. W. Carpenter, a coachman, of Pottsville, Pa., recently succeeded in his efforts to be wedded to Miss Louise Zettlemoyer, a pretty white girl. After local magistrates had refused to join the couple together because of the color of the bridegroom, Rev. J. W. Randolph, pastor of the African Methodist church, performed the ceremony. The fact that Carpenter is the sixth Negro in Pottsville who has claimed a white woman as his bride within the past year has caused considerable comment. The city of Selma, Ala., has an ordinance which forbids the selling of meat other than within the city market and prohibits its sale near the city limits also. It also refuses to rent a stall in the market to any colored man. Milas Martin is a colored butcher who is using all his powers to test the constitutionality of such a law and says he will carry the fight into the Supreme Court of the United States, as it is a violation of the Fifteenth Amendment. He is being backed by some good white people of Selma. Houston, Texas., Oct. 7.—A petition from a number of citizens, headed by G. W. Knight of San Marcos, has been presented to Governor Lanham asking that the state permit mob punishment of Negroes who assault women. The governor is asked to indorse a policy of absolute unprotection to Negroes guilty of assault, insuring that they be given no trial by legal inquiry of any kind, and that they may be hanged instantly as soon as apprehended. The governor's response principally is directed to the legal phase of the proposition. It is set forth that it is impossible for him to countenance the policy in view of the oath of office and the state legislation, which he is bound to protect. Washington, Oct. 7. 7. Emmett J. Scott, secretary to Booker T. Washington of the Tuskegee institute, and Charles W. Anderson, the Negro appointed collector of internal revenue of New York last March, called today at the White house. Scott placed before Secretary Leob the program to be followed at Tuskegee on the occasion of the presidents visit October 28. An interesting feature of the president's entertainment will be a series of seventy five floats that will pass in review before him, illustrative of the academic, mechanical and agricultural departments of the Negro. Almost 1,500 students will precede the floats, each wearing a stalk of sugar cane tipped with a cotton boil, both raised in the experimental gardens of the institute. W. O.

Count Kosciusko, while in command of the revolutionary forces in the vicinity of Great Egg Harbor, Burlington county, N. J., happened one day into a pasture where a young lieutenant was drilling the "awkward squad." At sight of the straggling, slouching rustics, the count sputtered with disgust and swore some fearful oaths in his native tongue. Calling upon the men to lalt, he seized a musket, and, brushing the lieutenant aside, went through the exercise himself. Then he bade them imitate him, but the squad, now thoroughly frightened, had become more awkward and sheepish looking than before. The old general was bristling with rage. Drawing himself up to his full height, he stamped his foot and shouted: "You mus' look like soldiers! Look fierce—look like de debbil—look like me!"

It is reported that efforts are being made to get from President Diaz a concession to establish gambling at Ciudad Jaurez, opposite El Paso. If the concession is granted, it is understood that a Mexican Monte Carlo will be established and expenditures made on a lavish scale. As a result of the development of zinc mines in Mexico, miners in that country are preparing to send to Washington and lobby for tariff revision, admitting zinc ores free. They contend the Missouri supply is insufficient for the United States and it therefore needs no protective tariff. The rock drilling contest for the American mining congress when it meets in El Paso November 15th, is assured. Cash prizes of $1,000 have been raised and already Ed Chamberlain, of the team of Chamberlain and Make, world champions, is entered. Page Brothers of Bisbee, Arizona, are also entered for the contest. Rev. Jeremiah Zimmerman of Syracuse, New York, a well-known numismatist and Egyptologist, was recently robbed of the entire collection of ancient coins, medals and cameos obtained by him during his Egyptian tour, destined for the Metropolitan Museum of Art at New York.

Probate of Will Leaves $300,000 for Proposed Charity — Beneficiaries Must Be at Least Eight Years of Age and Born in Colorado. Denver.—As a result of the compromise entered into yesterday by the contestants of the will of the late Charles H. Stebbins and the executors of the estate, it is likely that the orphan asylum to be established in Denver for which Mr. Stebbins left the bulk of his fortune will be a reality. The hearing was in the County Court before Judge Lindsey. The agreement reached between the parties in interest, awarded $46,100 to Charles H Stebbins, the son, and $37,650 to Grace Stebbins, one of the daughters. The other daughter, Dora Stebbins Thompson, is not concerned in the settlement made yesterday. Claims were presented by the son for $60,000, his interest in the estate of his mother, and by the daughter, Grace, $49,000, her interest in the same estate. The parties after much deliberation decided to cut down the demands as indicated, and Judge Lindsey allowed the claims. According to the claims presented and allowed. Charles M. Stebbins, after the death of his wife, and the mother of the contestants, desired to secure control of certain lands of the estate of the mother, in Greenburg, county of Westchester, New York. These lands consisted of a valuable farm of 136 acres known as the "Mead Farm." The mother had left the estate to her three children. Mr. Stebbins secured control of the property from his children, with the agreement that the children were to receive $15,000 each, the amounts to be paid to them in installments. These amounts were not paid, and Mr. Stebbins was not able to secure a partition of the estate as he had desired. The title to the land was still in the children, and Mr. Stebbins made a contract with his children that if suit was not brought for the property or the share belonging to any child, that child would get his portion of the property back. One of the children, Dora Stebbins Thompson, did bring such a suit and was given a judgment for $24,006.66 in New York. The other two children did not bring suit, and it was on their rights arising out of the property of their mother that their claims were based, which were allowed by the County Court yesterday. The will of the late Charles Stebbins was admitted to probate by Judge Lindsey, and there will be left, after the payment of all debts of the estate, something over $200,000 for the purpose of founding the orphas' home as provided for in the will of the deceased. Mr. Stebbins left an estate valued at nearly $500,000. He died in Berlin in June, 1904. In his will he left nearly all of his property for the founding of the home. The children who are to receive the benefits of the vast fortune are to be at least eight years of age and are to have been born in Colorado. The beneficiaries of the will are to be well treated under the terms of the will. But little was left the Stebbins children under the terms of the will, which was contested on the grounds of unsound mind and undue influence. Mr. Stebbins was always considered somewhat eccentric and among his eccentricities was the writing of a book, entitled "The New Religion." This book was to be printed from a fund of $15,000 set aside for that purpose and sent to every postmaster in the United States with the instruction that it was to be put into the hands of a bright young man known by the postmaster. The book had many curious ideas on the way for one to live in this life in order to attn. in the best of the hereafter. For many years Mr. Stebbins lived abroad and would have nothing to do with his children, for whom he did not appear to have any affection. The trial of the contest of the will last March in the Probate Court brought forth many peculiar traits of the deceased, and the testimony was of an unusual character. The jury in the case disagreed. CANON CITY PROJECT. Plan for Electric Line to Cripple Creek District. Denver.—A Canon City dispatch says: A special meeting of the Canon City Merchants' Association was held last night to hear the report of a committee appointed by that body last month to collect data in relation to the cost of an electric line from this city to the Cripple Creek district. The report was predicated upon the result of the survey by City Engineer Charles Mitton and was unanimously adopted. In view of the concurrence of the association in the matter, steps were taken this morning to organize a company for the construction of the proposed line to Victor, twenty-eight miles, which it is estimated can be built for $250,000. It is computed by competent engineers that a trolley car will make the twenty-eight miles as quickly as it would make twenty-four miles on a line having a six-mile stretch of six per cent. maximum grade. From a scenic standpoint the road would be one of the most magnificent in the West. At one point on the route proposed for 120 miles to the northwest one can see the Mosquito range and for 140 miles to the south, the Sangre de Cristo range is in plain view. It is estimated that tourist travel alone would pay $25,000 a year. An old grade covering part of the distance could be purchased at a nominal cost. It is believed the company would derive a paying revenue by carrying passengers at 50 cents each, one way. Tailor-Made. ing in price from $2.50 a pair to $6.00.

SOME OF ITS BIG EXPENSES Contributions to Republican Campaign Fund—Heavy Legal Expenses—Cost of Luncheons—Printing Bills Loom Up. New York.—Toward the close of today's session of the legislative committee's insurance investigation, President McCurdy of the Mutual Life Insurance Company made the startling statement that an insurance company was not an institution founded to make money for the policy holders, but was, or should be, a great philanthropic enterprise founded to increase and spread its benefits over the entire earth. "There has been a great mistake made," he said, "about the real province of life insurance companies in these later years. People have been led to believe that the main purpose was to make money for its policy holders. In my view that is not the purpose of such companies. They are eleesmosynary. When a man insures in a company he should take into consideration the fact that he has entered a great philanthropic concern that is in duty bound to spread itself, even though this growth prevents him from realizing as much as he expected." The sessions of the insurance investigating committee were terminated for the week at the adjournment to-day because of the death of S. Fred Nixon, speaker of the Assembly of the Legislature of New York, at his home in Westfield. Richard A. McCurdy, president of the Mutual Insurance Company; Robert Olympnant, one of the trustees and chairman of the committee on expenditures; Walter R. Gillett, first vice president and formerly general manager, and Robert Grannis, second vice president, were called as witnesses during the day and revealed these facts: In the years 1903-1904 the Mutual seaside $200,000 in four regular payments of $50,000 each year for the "confidential fund," which was used for the purpose of influencing legislation and for campaign purposes. Out of this fund the payments to the National Republican campaign committee were made. The Mutual contributed $90,000 to the Republican campaigns of 1904, 1900 and 1896. This much was admitted. How much more has been contributed can only be guessed. As in the New York Life company, none of these expenditures were booked, and nowhere is there to be found a line or curve to tell of the use of a dollar of the $200,000 turned over to E. L. Short, ostensibly for disbursement. The legal expenses of the Mutual were $347,000 in 1893, $130,000 in excess of 1802, when they were $126,000. For 1904 they were $194,500. In 1901 they were $477,500. In these four years the "legal expenses" of the Mutual amounted to $1,265,000. Last year the Mutual paid $35,000 in committee fees. In this addition to the magnificent salary paid to the executives who attended these committee meetings. The Mutual paid $74,994.20 in 1903 for "luncheons" for its employees. In 1904 this item cost the policy holders $72,861.19. These were a few of the additional extravagances discovered today. A strong effort was made to discover the manner in which the Mutual came to pay $601,101.29 last year for printing, stationery and office supplies. The balance of the expenditure of $1,134,000 for "advertising, printing, stationery and postage" also remained a mystery to-day, and Mr. Hughes' attempt to learn of these strange items caused a lively verbal bout between Mr. Hughes and the busy Mr. Best, who is Mr. McCurty's lawyer. THEY GET BIG WAGES. Salaries Paid to the Officers of the Mutual Life. New York.—In Friday's testimony before the legislative insurance investigation, the sensational development was when Mr. Hughes demanded the pay roll of the executive offices of the company. This was produced and showed the salaries of these officers since 1877. For the year 1904 President McCurdy receiver $150,000; two vice presidents were paid $50,000 each, a second vice president $17,500, the third vice president $10,000 and the general manager $25,000, who this year will receive $30,000, and the treasurer $50,000. Robert H. McCurdy said he never knew the salary of his father until he heard it read in the committee room. He thought, however, that there should be no limit to the salaries of such positions, because they should be in accordance with the accumulations o. the company. When asked if it was any benefit to the policy holders to increase the president's salary, Mr. McCurdy said he thought the trustees had considered that when they increased the president's salary. No increase, however, had ever been considered when he was present at the trustees' meetings. Went Alone to Reformatory. Denver.—A Buena Vista dispatch last night says: Charles Jacoby, aged seventeen, who was sentenced to an indeterminate term in the Colorado State Reformatory at this point by Judge Ben B. Lindsey in Denver Monday, arrived here this evening on Rio Grande train No. 5, and at once started on the mile and a half walk to the institution, where he introduced himself and presented his papers. His arrival was a surprise to everybody as it was not thought he would keep faith with Judge Lindsey. This is said to be the first time in the history of the state that a sentenced criminal was permitted to go unaccompanied to the place of his incarceration. JAP ARMIES TO DISBAND. Will Take Seven Months to Get Soldiers All Home. Victoria.—The steamer Kanagawa, from Japan, brought news that arrangements have begun for the return of the Japanese armies in Manchuria. One hundred thousand troops will remain in Manchuria and Korea. The remainder of the twelve army divisions will be landed at the port nearest the divisional headquarters. At Kobe, large sheds have been erected at the quarantine station at Wadaka point and the troops of the Nagoya, Himeji and Kanawa divisions will be landed there. Including canteen men and others these divisions number 200,000. It is estimated that seven months will be occupied in landing and demobilizing these divisions. Each man will undergo disinfection and the arrangements permit of about 2,000 a day being disinfected. The merchant steamers in the transport service will not be released for some months. The confiscated blockade runners will be made ready to carry troops. The Korean army will be utilized to bring a large percentage of the Manchurian army through Korea to Fusan. The majority, however, will embark for Japan at New Chwang and Dalny. ELEVEN MORE IMMORTALS. Eight Men and Three Women Elected to Hall of Fame. New York—The votes in the second election for the Hall of Fame were canvassed Monday. Only three names were chosen to receive tablets in the five classes in which canvassing was completed, those of John Greenleaf Whittier and James Russell Lowell in the class of authors and that of General William T. Sherman in the class of soldiers. The elections will continue. Those names which failed of election to the Hall of Fame, having received less than fifty-one votes, were: Oliver Wendell Holmes and James Fennimore Cooper, forty-eight votes each; William Cullen Bryant, John N. Motley and Francis Parkman, forty-six votes each; Edgar Allen Poe, forty-three; George Bancroft, thirty-nine; Horace Greeley, thirty-four; Noah Webster, thirty-two; William H. Prescott, twenty-five; William Lloyd Garrison, twenty. Teachers: Mark Hopkins, thirty-eight; Matthew Simpson, twenty-nine. The Hall of Fame was opened at University Heights five years ago, at which time twenty-nine tablets were unveiled, dedicated to the following names: Emerson, Longfellow, Irving, Hawthorne, Edwards, Horace Mann, Beecher, Channing, Fulton, Morse, Whitand, Udubon, Gray, Grant, Faragut, Lee, Washington, Lincoln, Webster, Franklin, Jefferson, Clay, John Adams, Marshall, Kent, Storey, Peabody, Stuart and Peter Cooper. Three women and five men were chosen Tuesday, the second day, to receive tablets in the Hall of Fame at New York University when the canvass of the votes in the second quinquennial election was completed. Maria Mitchell was the only American scientist to be elected at this time. Though Louis Agassiz secured admission as a foreign-horn American. A curious commentary on Maria Mitchell's election is the fact that eight of the electors, chiefly scientists refused to vote for any woman, thus reducing the number of votes necessary to elect a woman to forty-seven, while fifty-one were required for a man. Mary Lyon, founder of Mount Holyoke College, and Emma Willard, the author of "Rocked in the Cradle of the Deep" and a famous educator, were the other women honored. Alexander Hamilton, with eighty-seven votes, the highest number received by any candidate at this election, and John Paul Jones, with fifty-three, share with Agassiz the honors of being the first American immortals of foreign birth. Two American statesmen were chosen—John Calpine Adams, whose tablet will occupy a niche next to that of his father, John Adams, he having received fifty-eight votes, and James Madison, who secured admission with fifty-six votes. Patrick Henry, John C. Calhoun and Andrew Jackson fell a half a dozen votes short of securing bronze tablets to record their fame, and Samuel Adams was again defeated. James Monroe's votes numbered only twenty-tree; Seward, Sumner, Dewitt Clinton, Garfield, John Jay and Stanton were among the statesmen who failed to be elected. Omaha Council Under Guard. Omana.—Mayor Moores stationed a cordon of policemen at the doors of the City Council chamber to-day and prevented three members of the council from leaving the room, thus keeping intact a quorum, which the majority used to pass an ordinance entering into a contract with the Omana Gas Company to furnish illuminating gas to the city. After a roll of the council was called, President Zieman and Councilmen Nicholson and O'Brien started to Jeave, thus breaking the quorum. They found every door blocked by policemen and were forced to remain in the room. Big Baseball Bets. Philadelphia.—Eighty-five thousand "ye hundred dollars will go one way or the other between two men on the result of the world's championship games between the Giants and Athletics. The bettors are M. B. Guggenheimer of Baltimore, who is backing the Athletics, and Philip H. Stottlek of New York, who is taking the Gotham end of the wager. George R. Karner, clerk at the Walton, is stakeholder. For the series the money was placed $25,000 to $22,000.

This and many similar mottoes are the emblems and guides of our churches, lodges and secret orders, and yet how ruthlessly and watomly they are disregarded by the very leaders who are supposed to see that they are carried out. The nagging spirit seems to thrive in the West. Everybody is up on the spirit of combat, a contentious, grouchy, combative spirit seems rife and is easily aroused by those who ought to be cooler headed. In deliberative bodies there will always be room for differences without looking for and making them an object of investigation. No race and no enterprise or organization can move forward by fostering the spirit of difference, retaliation or intrigue. The time has come in the history of race building to study what will make for peace and harmony not what divides, severs and opposes. The Negro seems to have this part of his nature already abnormally developed and it is about time now that we begin to look for constructive and not destructive measures to inaugurate. Meanness, ingratitude, odious vanity, selfishness, baseness and duplicity ought to be relegated out of our orders and societies, they do us no good, for if allowed to remain they become a part of ones nature, for daily, hourly, instantly, are our acts, thoughts, words, physical sensations, ideas, and moral impressions becoming stamped upon our brain and contributing to the formation of that being that we call self. In order that we may not be negative to progress. Dont knock THE COLOR QUESTION AT HOME. Last week it was the color question in Maryland, now it is the same thing in Colorado. Last Saturday on the foot ball field at the State Agricultural grounds in the practice game between the Aggies and the Denver University the game was called in question and held up for sometime because the State school put a colored man in the game. The colored player objected to by the Denver Methodists squad was Johnson, a young man from this city who entered the college this fall and already has shown such aptitude in his studies and ability as an athlete that he was put on the football squad to defend the honor and credit of his school. During the last two years only one colored man was in the intercollegiate contest that was F. M. Roberts of the Colorado College. His position on the team was sustained by Colorado College. Dr. W. F. Slocum president of the college taking the stand that as long as Roberts was a student and conducted himself in a becoming manner that he be allowel to play. Now it becomes necessary that Chancellor Buchtel head of the University of Denver do the same thing. A committee from the Inter-Graduate Association and The Peoples Sunday Alliance will take up the question with Lucius W. Hoyt, chairman of the Atheletic committee of the Denver University and will insist that the colored players be allowed to take part in the scheduled games. If colored students are worthy to be taken into these institutions and are permitted to take class honors there is no reason why they should not play on the athletic field. Race antipathy should not be permitted to dominate where brains, culture and merit are supposed to rule. It is the duty of the college to teach respect for man and not color and in the many sports to give credit to whom it is due. THE PRACTICAL IN NATURE Last week we called attention to the wonderful twentieth century acheivments and the benefits that ought to come to our race by keeping in touch with these practical movements if only in a theoretical way. There is nothing more valuable and interesting than the study of nature when persued in the right way and with diligent attention. To watch the manner and process of plant growth is to quicken and sharpen the powers of observation, cultivate the intellect and develope and foster respect for intelligent labor What is better to know than that plants are guided and developed in their progress of growth by intelligent direction and to understand how they are nourished by the soil, stimulated by the rain, invigorated by the air and fed by the atmosphere. In order to obtain the greatest benefit from the study of agriculture, the practical and scientific sides must be combined. The why? This is the all important thing for this same principle may be embodied with certain modifications in a thousand other things. Every child whether boy or girl should be taught the application of the scientific principles which causes the soil to respond readily to the demand and which of the tiller and the results obtained should be noted, this is the beginning of science on any subject. Prof. J. W. Hoffman, colored, the cotton expert who left for England last week, a few years ago was a public school pupil in the South, he gave special attention to nature studies and afterwards followed this same line of work in the more advanced branches in college. After graduating he became a teacher of science in the Baptist College in Louisville and afterwards at Cane Springs, Ky. now he is employed as expert by the English Government in cotton raising at Lagos West Africa and is making a fine showing as well turning to practical account the labors of the natives in that region, thus it can be seen what may follow a little investigation on scientific lines. Our public shools and especially in the Southland could do no better thing than to emphasize the importance of good farming by giving the subject equal place in the curriculum with arithmetic and grammer, because in soil study we have open to us an intelligent chapter in the great book of nature in which the goodness and wisdom of God is plainly written.

The old multimillionaire crooked one rheumatic knee at the feet of the beautiful debutante, while in the distance the orchestra was playing some leit motif from Rausmithtimsky's sublime works, and the haunting melody filtered through the tropical vegetation that screened them from the dancers. "Miss Youngbudde—Ethel, I love you!" "But, O, Mr. Stocksandbonds, I-I," stammered the sweet young ting, noting, however, that her official stenographer and recording phonograph were in good acoustic positions. "Ah, Miss Ethel," the old multimillionaire was saying, "it is in the meridian of life that we can appreciate woman's worth and her cheering, divine presence. All else have I—palaces, automobiles, yachts—but without you they are as nothing." "Ah! Mr. Stocksandbonds," blushed the debutante, "I would marry you, in- Vast Stretches of South America to Be Equipped with the New Method of Communication Advantages to Commerce. Among the many important installations of wireless telegraphy already in operation, or soon to be constructed, one of the most interesting is the proposed line in Peru which is to be established between Puerto Bermudez and Iquitos, a distance of 1,000 kilometers (621.37 miles). The reasons influencing the choice of wireless telegraphy for this purpose apply with equal force in other places in South America and Africa, and are chiefly the superstition of the natives as regards the wires and insulators and the difficulty of penetrating the forests and jungles to construct an ordinary line. In Peru it has been considered for some time of the greatest importance to establish communication between Lima and Iquitos, the main port on the Amazon, and while there was telegraphic communication across the Cordilleras, the wires did not extend beyond Puerto Bermudez, which was accordingly made the start- discovery Interesting to Archaeologists Made by Accident at Glasgow, Scotland—Specimen of Exquisite Carving of Exquisite Carving. A curious discovery was made the other day at the foot of the High street, Glasgow. The second house from the Tolbooth Steeple is "Hopkirk's Land," which contains the shop where David Dale, the great eighteenth century philanthropist, established himself in business in the yarn and hosiery line. The building, of seventeenth century erection, remains much as it was in Dale's time. For many years a cellar beneath the house has been little used, but a few days ago a shelf which had served its day was cleared away, the support of which turned out to be Dale's long lost sign—a wool pack carved in wood and gilt. There was another eighteenth century hosiery business in Glasgow which displayed the swinging lamb—the Golden Fleece of old Spain, which was borne on the ban- Radium Exhibition Spoiled by Childish Fright of Persians—Absence of Light Probably Held Suggestion of Assassination. There was an element of humor in the interview which took place in Paris between the shah of Persia and M. Curie, the French scientist. His majesty had expressed his desire to see the wonders of radium, so a telegram was sent to M. Curie asking him to present himself at the Elysee palace hotel. "Your name and your great discovery are known to us in Persia," said the shah, after the manner of an "Arabian Night" potentate addressing a magician. "I wish to see this famous radium, which is described as having the most marvelous powers." "Sire," replied M. Curie, "I can satisfy your curiosity, but not here, for the light is too strong. In order that you may properly see the brilliance Ceremonial Waistcoat of Egyptian Prince First Donned Thirty-three Centuries Ago-Still in Good Preservation. At the Boston Museum of Fine Arts there has lately been placed on exhibition the most wonderful garment in the world. It is the ceremonial waistcoat of Prince Maher-pri of Egypt, who lived about 1,400 years before Christ. This leather garment is, therefore, about 3,300 years old. Yet so perfectly is it preserved that a person might put it on and wear it to-day. Not a mesh is broken; it is not even discolored, except around the waist, where it had been darkened by perspiration under a belt when worn by its gident deed I would, but for one thing against you—your personal habits." "But," protested the old millionaire, with dignity, "I have always considered myself—and so have my friends—as a very criterion of morality and clean living. Unlike the worthless and poverty stricken young rakes of these days, Ethel, I am not only fabulously rich, but have absolutely no bad habits." "That's just it, Mr. Stocksandbonds; that is just why I must refuse you," said the girl, in a tone of infinite sadness. "Impossible!" gasped the aged millionaire. "Do you mean to say that you would admire bad habits in a husband?" Dreamily, sadly, the romantic young debutante pulled to pieces a red, red rose. "Tell me," persisted the sultor, "why you would wish to see me dissipated." "Why, er—er, bad habits shorten life, you know," murmured the maiden. But then, reflecting that she could easily drive him to drink after marriage, the romantic girl accepted the sultor—New York Herald. ing point of the wireless system. A contract has been awarded to a German company to provide the apparatus, and this will give it a virtual monopoly of wireless telegraphy in Peru. Between Puerto Bermudez and Iquitos the plan is to have three intermediate stations and ultimately to extend the line to Manaos on the Amazon and then down the river to Para, thus affording direct communication between the Atlantic and Pacific coasts. There already is a cable up the Amazon, but the service is frequently interrupted, and in the upper water the swift currents would have rendered the laying of such a means of communication impossible. As wireless telegraphy has proved successful at sea, between islands, and over large tracts of land in Alaska, it is interesting to have a practical demonstration as to whether equally good results will be achieved in actual practice in the impenetrable forests of South America. If such is the case, there will be without question, a wide application of the idea, as it will put within reach at small expense districts otherwise quite isolated. ners of the great Duke of Alva when invading the Netherlands. Both signs are remembered, but if the lamb has been made into kindling wood, the wool pack is now in safe keeping, although it is considerably the worse for having rested on the flagged floor of a cellar for sixty years, and the gift is now only discernable in parts. The carving of the wool pack has been done by a master hand, and it would be a good object lesson for wood carving students who are endeavoring to revive an almost lost art. The lamb sign for the hosier's business is very old, and has reference to St. Agnes, who suffered martyrdom in the year 306 when only 14 years of age. The saint has been usually depicted by artists with a lamb by her side. In days when the common people of England could not read printed signs, the first man in a town or village to set up business in yarns and hosiery adopted the lamb sign. A competitor would choose the wool pack. of radium I must show it in a room which is dark—entirely dark." The shah, whose nervousness is very well known, did not take kindly to the idea of a dark room, and called his grand vizier, who suggested drawing the curtains of the room, but M. Curie persisted that blackness was necessary. Thereupon the shah called M. Paoll, the French detective protector of royalties, who assured his majesty that there was no danger. So the party descended to the underground apartment in the hotel known as the safe room. M. Curie began expounding the properties of radium, and then gave a signal for the electric light to be switched off. Immediately a panic seized the shah's suite, and all cried out in Persian and in French, "Light! Light! Turn on the light!" The electricity was switched on again, and the disappointed savant was forced to show his radium in a lighted room—London Chronicle. owner at the time of the building of the Temple of Karnac. At first glance it looks like a woven garment with a border of leather round the edges. But closer examination shows that it is made out of a whole gazelle skin. What look like woven meshes are really rectangular holes cut or punched in the skin. This garment was found in one of the rock-cut tombs near Thebes by Theodore M. Davis, the eminent archeologist of Newport, in his excavations in Egypt about a year ago. Though this leather jacket had withstood the passing of thirty-three centuries in its burial place in Egypt, it would soon mildew and fall to pieces in our moist climate, so it has been placed in an air-tight case at the museum, and can now be looked at only through glass.

To take your meals there is just like eating at home. It is very evident that their meals are satisfactory from the increased patronage that is noted daily. Twenty-five members and friends of Campbell A. M. E. church gladened the hearts of the pastor and wife Friday night.

The Orphanage and Old Folk's Home Association is an incorporated institution of Colorado. It is an undenominational institution. It is established for the purpose of helping the motherless, fatherless, the homeless or the working young men and women of our race. Our greatest hindrance in our city is, we have no means by which we may reach our young women and men when they reach our city: Therefore those who are prepared get them. We claim that two thirds of our young women and men could be made of very much usefulness, physically, mentally, religiously in the city of Denver, if it be possible for us to come in contact with them, for this cause we need the association. Since the purchase of the 160 acre of land, and its publication, many inquiries have come to us in relation to the care of children. We refused at first, because of not being prepared to care for any one, but after careful consideration the chairman of the board of trustees called a meeting, in this meeting matters were discussed thoroughly. But no real conclusion raeched, so firmly one of the member of the board of the Trustee board said I will rent a home with sufficient room to care for a few of the children during the winter months, in these quarters, we have been able to care for three children. We are especially under many obligations to Messrs Holly and R. M. Tompkins for $16.25 and Mr. and Mrs. Mosby for the two loads of furniture they sent out to the home.

Japanese Flower Arrangement. The general ideas of Japanese floral arrangements may be summarized in this way: Each setting of flowers or plants must represent earth, air and water, or heaven, earth and man. In placing blossoms in a vase, the vase and water are earth, the short stemmed flowers man, and the tall one heaven. The ramifications of this principle, the delicate subtle meanings and properties, are infinite. There are flowers which represent months and flowers which represent days, and as every Japanese house contains flowers, they form a calendar for the initiated. Every family of standing has artificially correct vases, vase holders and flowers, and the manner of entertaining an honored visitor is to ask him to arrange some flowers. The guest is governed by rigid laws. He must not make too elaborate an arrangement, for that takes over much time. He always offers to destroy what he has done, to prove he considers it valueless. Only when he is urged by his host does he leave it—these are examples of the long list of restrictions. The Japanese knows them as he knows his language and is literature.—Harper's Bazar. They Cook Their Shoes. "The wise man takes proper care of is shoes when there is snow on the ground," said a retailer who was asked why a pair of patent leather shoesought within a week had lost their shape. "When a man, or woman either, for that matter, who has been walking in the snow gets home with amp shoes almost the first thought to dry them as quickly as possible. They are put under the stove or on the steam radiator. One customer told me his wife dried his shoes in the oven. This is folly. "If wet shoes are dried too quickly the leather will shrink and rot, so matter how expensive the make. In winter time particularly shoes should be dried slowly and given a rest. If a person has two pairs of shoes and lets one pair stay on the trees when not worn each pair will last at least twice as long." Bogus Dlamond for Empress. It is stated by the Pekin Times that mong the gifts presented to the Empress of China on her birthday was a beautiful diamond" from a high offer.

AWFUL NEURALGIA Mr. Porran Thought He Should Go Mad But Dr. Williams' Pink Pills Cored Him. "It seems like a miracle that Dr. Williams' Pink Pills should have curved my menstrual," and Mr. Porran. "They are certainly a marvelous medicine and I am always glad to recommend them. "For two years," he continued. "I had suffered almost unendurable pain in my head. They would start over my eyes and shoot upward most frequently, but they often spread over my face and at times every part of my head and face would be full of agony. Sometimes the pains were so intense that I actually frowned they would drive me mad. "My eyes ached constantly and there was always a burning sensation over my forehead, but the other pains varied, sometimes they were acute, and again they were dull and lingering. I could not sleep. My tempest was invivable and I got no pleasure out of life. "I tamed remedy after remedy, but finding no help in any of them, I became a despairing man. Even when I began to take Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, I had no great hope of a cure. "That was in December of 1803. To my surprise, a change in my condition took place right away. The pain grew less intense and the acute attacks were further apart, as I kept on using Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. The improvement began with the first box, and when I had used six boxes I stopped. My cure was complete and has lasted ever since." Mr. Charles H. Porter lives at Raymond, N.J. He is one of many grateful people who have found that Dr. Williams' Pink Pills will cure diseases of the nerves that have stubbornly resisted every other remedy tried. Not only neuralgia, but sciatica, partial paralysis and motor ataxia yield to them. They are sold by all druggists, or may be obtained directly from the Dr. Williams Medicine Co., Schenectady, N.Y. Where Diamonds Are Found The most famous South African diamond mines are Kimberley, De Beers, Dutoitspan, Bulftontein and Wesselton. These are in a circle about three and a half miles in diameter. "I am told that you called me a little busybody. Is that true?" "Believe me, my words were distorted. On the contrary, I said you were a busy little body." BIG PUBLISHER SUED. Chicago, Oct. 16.—The Peruna Drug Manufacturing Company, manufacturers of a widely known proprietary medicine, has brought suit in the Superior Court of the City of Chicago against the Curtis Publishing Company of Philadelphia, alleging that it has been damaged to the extent of $250,000 by a recent article in the Ladies' Home Journal. The suit is based on a statement recently made in that journal that a testimonial as to the merit of the remedy manufactured by the plaintiff, alleged to have been given by Congressman George H. White of South Carolina, was fraudulent, denial from Mr. White that he ever gave such testimonial also being printed. The Peruna company declares that Congressman White did give the testimonial in good faith, and that it has two original letters from Mr. White. It declares that Mr. White was led to repudiate the testimonial through a misunderstanding. This is the second large damage suit that has been filed against the Curtis Publishing company since it inaugurated its attacks on "Patent Medicines." A woman, the thirteenth child, and born on the 13th of the month, recently died in Alabama at the age of 15. Might have known something would happen to her! Your grocer returns your money if you don't like Schilling's Best. The poor we have always with us but even the rich man may be a frightful bore. Every housekeeper should know that if they will buy Defiance Cold Water Starch for laundry use they will save not only time, because it never sticks to the iron, but because each package contains 16 oz—one full pound—while all other Cold Water Starches are put up in $ \frac{3}{4} $ -pound packages, and the price is the same, 10 cents. Then again because Defiance Starch is free from all injurious chemicals. If your grocer tries to sell you a 12-oz. package it is because he has a stock on hand which he wishes to dispose of before he puts in Defiance. He knows that Defiance Starch has printed on every package in large letters and figures "16 ozs." Demand Defiance and save much time and money and the annoyance of the iron sticking. Defiance never sticks. Many men spend their lives advertising themselves and then expect to be paid for it in transportation to Paradise. The Best Results in Starching can be obtained only by using Defiance Starch, besides getting 4 oz more for same money—no cooking required.

A good deal of damage was done in the Uncompahgre valley by a heavy frost on the night of October 5th. Nearly all green vegetables were killed and some kinds of apples badly injured. In order to stimulate good marshalship in the Colorado National Guard Adjustant General Bulkeley Wells is offering a handsome silver cup as a trophy for excellence in skirmish fire. The jury at Boulder in the case of Jacinto Navarette, accused of murdering Yenes Vias June 23d near Longmont, brought in a verdict of not guilty on the 10th instant. Vias, a Menkom was killed in a fight resulting from a saloon quarrel in North Longmont. Governor McDonald has signed an order for the organization of a second section of Battery A of Victor. The battery will consist of thirty men with two field pieces and will be commanded by Major H. A. Naylor of the Second regiment, who, it is said, will resign to accept the captaincy. Colorado people will experience one of the coldest winters in ten years, according to Special Game Warden Givens, who says that all the deer in the higher altitudes are coming below the quaking aspen line. He says that every time the deer leave the higher ridges a severe winter is indicated. George Adams, a Greek carrying an American name, has been ordered out of Pueblo by Chief of Police McCafferty. Adams is charged with masquerading as a priest and claiming to be collecting money and valuables that can be converted into money for the interests of the Christian religion in Servia. Applications received by the forest service at Washington for the purchase of timber on recently created reserves include one for 1,000,000 feet of timber, a large percentage of which is dead, on the Holy Cross reserve, Colorado. Another is for 600,000 feet of dead and insect-infected timber on the Pike's Peak reserve. James F. Burns of Portland mine fame, has brought suit in the District Court at Denver to compel James Doyle, associated with him in the Portland mine, to pay him $1,517.45, costs in the battle for the control of the mine which was fought out in the Iowa Supreme Court last April and was deeded in favor of Burns. He claims that Doyle has never obeyed the orders of the court. The closing of the deal for the purchase of the Western Packing Company and the Colorado Packing and Provision Company by the National Packing Company of Chicago is taken by stockmen to mean that satisfactory terms have been made with the stockholders in the Denver Union Stockyards Company for a transfer of the controlling interest in the yards to the National Packing Company. The Denver News says that instead of making anything out of his contest to secure the $9,000 insurance left by his wife, Dr. Jones Watson, the Denver osteopath, who was tried in Missouri for his wife's murder last year, not only spent all the insurance that his wife left, but a considerable part of his own private property. The fees alone for defending him in the murder trial were $7,000 and the court costs ate up more than the balance. A petition has been filed with the state engineer by the commissioners of Ouray county asking that a survey be made to determine the line which forms the south boundary of Ouray and the north boundary of San Juan. The law provides that after the engineer has made the survey as requested the disputing counties shall go into court and have the matter adjudicated. There is mining property in the disputed territory that neither county is able to assess. Suspected of being a "high grader." Jerry Thomas was arrested at Denver on the 10th instant by Detectives McNeill and Rinker at the request of Marshall Naylor of Victor. Thomas was taken into custody as he was attempting to claim a box containing more than $500 worth of ores from the Cripple Creek district, which had been shipped to Denver by the Globe Express Company. The prisoner was turned over to Major Naylor and officer and prisoner left for Victor that evening. A rock and cement tomb has just been completed over the remains of Louis Levings, the mountain climber who lost his life by a fall on the preprice of Mount Ypsilon, Estes Park, last August. The tomb is located just below the union of the arms of the Y on the easterly face of the mountain, and is 12,000 feet above sea level. In order to get the cement to the place it was necessary for it to be carried in small packages on the shoulders of men up very steep places. The work was done under the direction of Enos A. Mills. 900 DROPS CASTORIA A Vegetable Preparation for Assimilating the Food and Regularizing the Stomachs and Bowels of INFANTS & CHILDREN Promotes Digestion, Cheerfulness and Rest.

Adxampling the Famme's Interests. Travelling agents and salesmen are now sent from the home offices of the Chicago packers into all South American and Asiatic countries. They are going into every land, no matter what language may be spoken or what money be used. They will exchange their goods for cowries or elephant tusks—anything to sell the product and get something in return convertible into money. It may seem odd to some folks, but traveling men, carrying cases with samples of American meat products, can be seen in the desert of Sahara, the sands of Zanzibar or in Brazil, "where the nuts come from." Great is the enterprise of the Yankee merchant. The greater the market, the greater the price and stability of the price of the product and all that goes to make it in its various stages.

The Curative Power of PE-RU-NA in Kidney Disease the Talk of the Continent. Nicholas J. Hertz, Member of Ancient Order of Workmen, Capitol Lodge, No. 140, Pearl Street Hotel, Albany, N. Y., writes: "A few months ago I contracted a heavy cold which settled in my kidneys, and each time I was exposed to inclement weather the trouble was aggravated until finally I was unable to work. "After trying many of the advertised remedies for kidney trouble, I finally took Peruna. "In a week the intense pains in my back were much relieved and in four weeks I was able to take up my work again. "I still continued to use Peruna for another month and at the end of that time I was perfectly well. "I now take a dose or two, when I have been exposed and find that it is sillendid to keep me well." Hundreds of Cures. Dr. Hartman is constantly in receipt of testimonial from people who have been cured of chronic and complicated kidney disease by Peruna.

Washington. — President Roosevelt entertained at luncheon to-day Dr. D. E. Nichols and W. T. Reid of Harvard, Arthur Hillebrand and John B. Flinn of Princeton and Walter Camp and Mr. Owsley of Yale. The six guests of the President constitute the athletic advisers of the respective colleges named. The President desired to consider with them principally the morale of the game of football, with a view of eliminating much of its brutality, if possible. A general discussion of college athletics was had, but the talk centered around the game of football. It is hoped by the President that with the co-operation of the athletic committee the rules may be amended so as to do away with the roughness of the play. It is understood that no definite conclusions were reached. Indeed, none was expected, the idea of the President being to simply start the ball rolling with an idea to modify rules. Treaty Effective on Approval. Washington.—The treaty of peace between Russia and Japan will become effective upon its approval, without awaiting the formal exchange of ratifications at Washington. This information was imparted at the Japanese legation to-day. This course has been decided upon in order that the speediest possible termination of the war may be had. The treaty, it is understood, has passed through the necessary preliminary stages of approval in each country and is now before the respective emperors of Japan and Russia for the royal signature. As soon as it has been signed this fact will be communicated by cable to the State Department here and the Washington government will apprise each emperor of the act of the other. With this accomplished, the war will be at an end. The formal exchange of ratifications will be carried out in Washington as soon thereafter as the signed treaties reach here. Labor Strike in Moscow. Moscow—The majority of the factories here, especially in the great industrial quarter of Zamoskvopetch, which is across the river from the rest of the city, joined in the strike of printers and bakers Tuesday. The movement threatens to become general, though it is opposed by a strong minority of the workmen. The streets are comparatively tranquil. Several times to-day processions of striking workmen, in which red flags were carried, were held in the industrial quarters, and the police were forced to disperse the crowds, but aside from an affray to-day at the Liebrecht furniture factory, no bloodshed has been reported and the troops were not forced to resort to arms. No newspapers will appear to morrow. The employees of the electric street railways by a secret ballot voted to continue the strike, and as a consequence no cars are running. Colorado Springs Gets It. New York.—It was announced to-day that a national home for the letter carriers will be built at Colorado Springs by the National Letter Carriers' Association, which is holding its biennial convention. One hundred and sixty acres adjoining the Union Printers' Home were accepted by the national association. An option was recently obtained by the Colorado Springs' Merchants Association from the state at the rate of $20 an acre. The home will cost $200,000. It will probably not be until after the next convention in 1907 that work will actually begin. There are 15,000 members of the association and a $10 assessment would provide a fund of $150,000. Colorado-Oklahoma Road. Guthrie, Okla.—The Colorado, Oklahoma & New Orleans Railroad Company, with headquarters in this place and capitalized at $20,000,000, was chartered to-day to build a line having an estimated length of 800 miles, and to cost $20,000,000. The proposed route is from Denver generally in a southerly direction to Trinidad, thence through the counties of Las Animas and Baca, Colorado, and Union county, New Mexico, and Beaver, Woodward, Day, Dewey, Blaine and Woods counties, Oklahoma, to a connection with the Kansas City, Mexico & Orient and the Guthrie, Fairview & Western railroads in southern Woods county or northern Blaine county. Fifteen-Year Sentence. Denver.—A Fort Collins dispatch says: Judge Garrigues of the District Court this morning listened to arguments of attorneys for John A. Steele on a motion for a new trial for the defendant. The court overruled the motion. Steele, who was convicted of murder in the second degree, for the killing of George Beutler in North Park on May 28th, was sentenced to from ten to fifteen years in the State Penitentiary at Canon City. The defendant's attorneys gave notice of an appeal to the Supreme Court and asked for a stay of execution for sixty days, which was granted. Steele will remain in the county jail for the present. Drunken Man Shoots Mayor Harper—While intoxicated last night J. J. Akin, proprietor of a shooting gallery, made the rounds of the business district, firing his revolver at random and chasing everybody of the streets. Mayor W. G. Muir was shot and seriously wounded, and Fred Lyons, a Meyer and the town marshal were slightly wounded. Mayor Muir will recover. Akin was arrested. Crowe Reward Paid. Omaha.-Chief of Police John J. Donohue has sent a cashier's check for $200 to Butte to cover the reward for the capture of Pat Crowe. The check was sent to Captain Dunn of the Omaha detective force to be delivered to the officers at Butte who placed Crowe under arrest. Value of the Weather Man. In spite of the standing jokes about the weather man, it is probable that for every dollar spent on the weather bureau $10 are saved, says Country Life in America. At the time of the Mississippi flood of 1897 $15,000,000 worth of live stock and other property was saved as a result of warnings issued a week ahead. Signals displayed for a single hurricane have detained in port vessels valued, with their cargoes, at $20,000,000. The West Indian stations, established in 1898, inform us of hurricanes as soon as they begin. The course of the hurricane that caused the Galveston flood was charted for a week before it struck our shores —for hurricanes move slowly. Eighty-five per cent. of the forecasts now come true, and by the aid of rural free delivery 25,000,000 forecast cards were distributed last year to farmers, many of whom could not have had them five years ago. Scarcity of Radium Sir William Ramsay states that not more than one-tenth of an ounce of radium is known to be in existence, and that the amount of radium salts, commonly referred to as radium, is very small. Best in the World. Cream, Ark., Oct. 9th.—(Special.)—After eighteen months suffering from Epilepsy, Backache and Kidney Complaint, Mr. W. H. Smith of this place is a well man again and those who have watched his return to health unhesitating give all the credit to Dodd's Kidney Pills. In an interview regarding his cure, Mr. Smith says: "I had been low for eighteen months with my back and kidneys and also Epilepsy. I had taken everything I knew of and nothing seemed to do me any good till a friend of mine got me to send for Dodd's Kidney Pills. I find that they are the greatest medicine in the world, for now I am able to work and am in fact as stout and strong as before I took sick." Dodd's Kidney Pills cure the Kidneys. Cured Kidneys cleanse the blood of all impurities. Pure blood means good health. Strange as it may seem, an abundance of grasshoppers does not add to the value of the hop crop.

Swedish Peculiarities. A barber will shave you for 6 cents—but you will have to wash your own face and comb your own lah, says a Stockholm letter in the Minneapolis Journal. Everybody trusts you and you are expected to trust everybody. You never have a dispute with the cabman over the fare. A taxameter measures the distance you travel and shows what you owe at any minute. You get a bill every day at the hotel. This permits you to correct any mistakes at once. Women shine your shoes, shave you, cut your hair and even give you a bath—unless you rebel. Policemen salute the street car conductors and are saluted by them. A servant who brings you something says "So good." You say "Tack" (thanks). You take off your hat when you enter a shop and return the shopman's low baw. Tips are everywhere given, but they are small. Ten ore (2½ cents) is the ordinary tip to a cabman or porter. A lady always waits for a gentleman to speak, instead of the reverse as in America.

"Good," He Says, "But Comfort Better." "Food that fits is better than a gold mine," says a grateful man. "Before I commenced to use Grape-Nuts food no man on earth ever had a worse infliction from catarrh of the stomach than I had for years. "I could eat nothing but the very lightest food and even that gave me great distress. "I went through the catalogue of prepared foods but found them all (except Grape-Nuts) more or less indigestible, generating gas in the stomach (which in turn produced headache and various other pains and aches) and otherwise unavailable for my use. "Grape-Nuts food I have found easily digested and assimilated, and it has renewed my health and vigor and made me a well man again. The catarrh of the stomach has disappeared entirely with all its attendant ills, thanks to Grape-Nuts, which now is my almost sole food. I want no other."

NO TONGUE CAN TELL How I Suffered with Itching and Bleeding Eczema Until Cured by Cuticura. "No tongue can tell how I suffered for five years with a terribly painful, itching, and bleeding eczema, my body and face being covered with sores. Never in my life did I experience such awful suffering, and I longed for death, which I felt was near. I had tried doctors and medicines without success, but my mother insisted that I try Cuticura. I felt better after the first bath with Curticura Soap and one application of Curticura Ointment, and was soon entirely well. (Signed) Mrs. A. Etson, Bellovue, Mich." Most of us can offer a sure remedy for other people's lilies. No man can help feeling sorry for a pretty girl who marries some other fellow while he is still in the bachelor class. AGAINST THE PUBLIC INTEREST. Overzealous Reformers Work for Law Against Presidential Medicines. "Schemes to diminish or destroy the sale of proprietary medicines are constantly being devised by interested parties. Every now and then some zealous reformer comes to the front with the demand for a law to require every package of proprietary medicine to be labeled with a printed statement of the 'formula,' showing just how it is manufactured. The millions of people who use proprietary medicines seem to be satisfied; but the man with a mania for regulating the affairs of other people or who has some personal interest to serve is the one who agitates the proposition. To a person who has never taken time to consider it, such a proposition may seem reasonable enough; yet it is in fact nothing more nor less than a scheme to compel the manufacturers to put their trade throughout the entire country at the mercy of every commercial pirate who might choose to flood the market with imitations of their goods. "Under such conditions the incentive for the original manufacturer to advertise his goods would be practically destroyed, for the money spent on advertising would inure mainly to the benefit of the pirates and imitators. Without advertising, the public would receive little information in regard to the medicine, and all future sales would be greatly impaired if not wholly destroyed. It is mainly by judicious advertising that the knowledge of proprietary medicines is brought to the public. Nothing is more certain, than that millions of people have found relief at a comparatively small expense by the use of some remedy first called to their notice through newspaper advertising. Why, then, should the manufacturer of a meritorious proprietary remedy be compelled by law to practically destroy his business as a condition of being allowed to carry it on? Yet that is exactly what these formula bills mean.—Exchange. The average man has plenty of ex- pertise but he can't always think of them.

WOMEN'S NEGLECT WOMEN'S NEGLECT SUFFERINGTHESUREPENALTY Health Thus Lost is Restored by Lydie E. Pinkham Vegetable Compound. How many women do you know who are perfectly well and strong? We hear every day the same story over and over again. "I do not feel well; I am so tired all the time!" Miss Kate McDonald More than likely you speak the same words yourself, and no doubt you feel far from well. The cause may be easily traced to some derancement of the female organs which manifests itself in depression of spirits, reluctance to go anywhere or do anything, backache, bearing-down pains, flatulency, nervousness, sleeplessness, leucorrhoea. These symptoms are but warnings that there is danger ahead, and unless heeded a life of suffering or a serious operation is the inevitable result. The never-failing remedy for all these symptoms is Lyvia E. Pirkham's Vegetable Compound. Miss Kate McDonald, of Woodbridge, N J., writes: Dear Mrs. Pinkham : "I think that a woman naturally dislikes to make her troubles known to the public, but restored health has meant so much to me that I cannot help from telling mine for the sake of other suffering women. "For a long time I suffered untold agony with a uterine trouble and irregularities, which made me a physical wreck, and no one thought I would recover, but Lyd. E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound has entirely cured me, and made me well and strong, and I feel it my duty to tell other suffering women what a splendid medicine it is." If you are ill, don't hesitate to get a bottle of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound at once, and write to Mrs Pinkham, Lynn, Mass. for special advice - it is free and always helpful.

WAY DOWN UNION PACIFIC ORLAND OCTOBER 31st DO SPRINGS and PUERLO WHAT SMART WOMEN ARE WEARING Stiffened Foundation Skirts. The coming vogue of overskirt effects will demand some considerable stiffening to be used in the foundation skirt, for the natural swing of the hip will give the top part of the skirt an outward tendency, while the flouances that are destined to fashion the lower part of the skirt will require artificial aid if they are to conform to the dictates of Dame Fashion and continue to display the same outward line. Interlinings, and especially those of a feather-weight princess haircloth, are in high favor abroad, and the best makers on this side have taken their cue from their Parisian brethren and adopted the same, to the great success of their creations. For Dutch Suppers. From the chef of a big eastern hotel comes this relish for Dutch suppers. It is to be used as a filling for sandwiches, or, with thin wafers, to serve with beer. Put half a pound of rich, American cheese through a patent grinder or chop it fine. Add saltspoonful of paprika, a teaspoonful of salt, a level tablespoonful of English mustard which has been mixed with a little vinegar, three tablespoonfuls of Worcestershire sauce, and a gill of pale sherry. Mix the whole into a smooth paste with a wooden spoon and stand it in a cool place, but not in the refrigerator.—What to Eat. Pretty Dressing Gown Such a wrap as we all require during the winter months. The "skirts" are very full. Indeed, there is very little shape in the whole garment; but a charming finish is arranged by means of the full collar shaped to a point at both back and front and edged with a full frilling of lace. The sleeves are short, puffed, and very full; while at the elbow a full frill of the material or, if preferred, a deep frill of lace. but a charming finish is arranged by means of the full collar' shaped to a point at both back and front and edged with a full frilling of lace. The sleeves are short, puffed, and very full; while at the elbow a full frill of the material or, if preferred, a deep frill of lace. is arranged just there, held in place by a band of ribbon or lace insertion or embroidery. Any who desire it can add a girdle sash or belt to this dressing-gown, catching the fulness into the figure at the waist-line if desired. The best materials to employ are muslin, plain, sprigged, or spotted delaines, soft silk, nun's velling, flannel, flannelette, or even a soft serge. New Flannels for Waists. Gay checked and striped flannels of all colors of the rainbow are in for autumn waists. Among them none are more attractive than a white flannel, striped at wide intervals with bright colored tartan. A very smart waist of this kind was sent to a young woman who means to stay at a northern resort. The waist was hand-tucked in the front, bringing the bright red plaid stripes close together in the front. The full sleeves were tucked, and were finished with a small turned back cuff of tartan. Large pearl buttons fastened the waist in front. Black patent leather belts are popular. Smart Carriage Cloak Taffeta is at the head of the silk list for carriage cloaks and there is a practical as well as a stylish design in almond green. Cloaks of this sort will also be in high favor for evening wear, with the woman who must needs use a trolley car to convey her to the theater or evening function. The collar and cuffs are of oriental gold embroidery and the fullness on shoulders is confined in several rows of shirrings. Pickled Plums For nine pounds of blue plums allow five pounds of sugar, one quart vinegar and an ounce of stick cinnamon. Pick the plums with a large needle and pour the boiling hot syrup over them and let stand until cold. Heat the syrup and pour over the plums for four successive days. On fifth day boil together for twenty minutes before sealing in jars. Street or School Suit. Girl's suit of red cloth. The shirt is cloth. The skirt is finished at the bottom with a wide band of the material stitched at the edges. ```markdown ``` The new empire jacket has a short-walsted upper part ornamented with four large buttons, to which the basque or lower part is attached with plaits. The revers and rippled shoulder collar are of the material, and the collar and cuffs are faced with Black velvet. Wearing of Brown. Brown, which has been so fashionable all the season through, is gaining in favor rather than diminishing, and there are as many shades almost as it is possible to find in any color, and it suits everybody. Since it has been so much in favor many new shoes have been brought out in it and many new names given old colors. We have mustard brown, tobacco brown, snuff brown, golden brown, moleskin brown, deer brown and hundreds of others; perhaps these are more in favor than the mahogany shades, but not so much so as walnut and chestnut; tan mingles well with brown, and so does orange. A good many cashmeres and long-skirted coats in fine cloth have had a great following in this color, and rich silk braid looks very well on ladies cloth of tabac tone. Terra-cotta or wood shades convey more to the mind, but warmer tones of brown are really most in favor. Cashmere in these brown shades is trimmed with ruchings of lace put on in a scroll work. Boudoir Confidences Fuchsia reds and blues will play a part in the color scheme. Topcoats for cold weather in cloth, velvet or fur will be much worn. How terribly incongruous most of us are going to look in the empire modes! are going to look in the empire modes: Coats with the fronts cut like a man's evening waistcoat will be prominent. The circular skirt will be ubiquitous, and most apparent in plaids and checks. The postilion will reign. It will be on evening coats of silk, also on cloth street models. Oval buckles of white pearl cost little and give the inexpensive white belt an individual air. Among the new boas is one made entirely of green leaves with pink camellias at the ends. The smartest French mourning nats are of black crepe trimmed with folds and bows of white crepe. Bloomers for Children. Sensible mothers are going to let their little girls wear bloomers with their winter suitings. These bloomers may match the stockings or pet-ticoats—thus for instance, a child wearing black shoes will have a pair of black silk or black cashmere bloomers. Where brown shoes and stockings are worn the bloomers will carry out the color note. It is not so desirable to have the bloomers made of the material of the dress. It is too suggestive of the boy's knickerbockers. Lighter Colors the Mode For several seasons past Dame Fashion has been inclining toward the fair tones. She has worn the pale cecru and the coffee tints; and she has put on mode and biscuit, lilac and cream, with fawn and pale red thrown in to afford relief when she became tired of the others. The fashionable woman of autumn can wear light blue; she can put on a delicate grass green; she can dress herself in the color of the spring roses and she can wear the faint tones of heliotrope and gray. All of the pale tints are open to her selection and all have the distinction of being in the mode. The lighter tones are really more becoming to women than the darker ones. There are few women who do not look well in cream color. Fewer indeed those who cannot wear white. And white cloth will be worn quite a little this fall, if not for shopping and pedestrianism, at least for reception and calling. HINTS TO HOUSEWIVES Salt dissolved in alcohol will often remove grease spots from clothing. A small square of asbestos kept on the ironing board will save the ironing sheet. A little lard or butter always improves cakes made of Indian meal, as it makes them light and tender. A delicious crust is formed on sponge cake if the top is dusted over with powdered sugar just before the cake is put into the oven. Carpets may be refreshed and brightened by going over them once a week with a broom dipped in hot water that has a little turpentine in it. Table Decorations. Flowers are no longer massed in the center of the table. A few choice blossoms are used, distributed in a dalynt way about the table surrounding the central cluster, which, compared to what we have been accustomed to, is meager. The sparse use of floral decorations requires a new set of vases or flower holders and specially made for the purpose are crystal stands, banded with silver. For the table center is a circle in two halves, to be used separately, if he wishes. To go with it are small single vases for the cornres. Autumn Headgear. The first autumn headgear is the easiest of all to manage, as this season lends itself especially to the stiff effects of ready-to-wear millinery. Straw is worn much later now than it used to be, so few felt bats are yet seen, and unless those are in white or the palest tints they have little of the glamour of first millinery. The straw shapes are in the main darkly colored, browns, blues, reds and grays standing out with prominence, velvet and wing trimmings mingling as usual with the hat structure. With the plainer shapes or the big sailor order there are big puffy crowns pushed up at the left by some species of trimming, for a side lift, or if the hat tilts slightly forward the trimming of velvet or straw is massed underneath. Fairy Gingerbread. One cupful of butter, two of sugar one of milk, four of flour, three-fourths of a teaspoonful of soda, one table-spoonful of ginger. Beat the butter to a cream. Add the sugar gradually, and, when very light, the ginger, the milk in which the soda has been dissolved and finally the flour. Turn baking pans upside down and wipe the bottoms very clean. Butter them and spread the cake mixture very thin on them. Bake in a moderate oven until brown. While still hot cut into squares with a cake knife and slip from the pan. Keep in a tin box. This is delicious. With the quantities given a large dish of ginger-bread can be made. It must be spread on the bottom of the pan as thin as a wafer and cut the moment it comes from the oven. Bouse of silk, w of the same bordered with stitching. The narrow vest is ornamented with soutache, and the neck is finished with a plaiting of batiste. Three ruffles of the silk form caps for the sleeves, which are finished at the bottom with bands of the material, ornamented with soutache and Stylish Visiting Gown. Princess lines are to gain rather than lose in prestige and evening gown, visiting gown, street gown, are all to be seen in princess form. A costume of this type is of mulberry silk chiffon velvet. The skirt is, of course, plain and the stock an pointed yoke are dotted silk a few shades lighter than the velvet. Bordering the latter, a wide band of the velvet in fine plaits accentuate the yoke effect. Sleeves are puffed to the elbow, from where they finish in mousquetaire fashion. Another Apple Filling One cup of coffee sugar, one egg, three large apples grated, one lemon grated, juice and outside of rind; heat together and cook until quite thick. To be cooled before putting on cake. Spread between layers of cake. Lunch Biscuits. One pound and a half of flour, half a pound of butter, three-quarters of a pound of sugar, a teaspoonful of soda, dissolved. Beat the sugar and butter together until thoroughly mixed, then add the flour and as much milk as will form a dough: Roll into sheets, cut them in cakes and bake quickly. Kitchen Shower The linen shower and the tin shower are familiar ways of testifying to a feeling of friendly regard for the bride-to-be. There is a newer shower, however, something on the tin order, but more comprehensive. This is the kitchen shower and the gifts include every sort of furnishing for the up-to-date kitchen and laundry. Gifts for the dining-room are included occasionally, but as a general things the shower is confined to the kitchen outfit. Girl's Suit of Blue Cloth. The bell skirt is trimmed at the is trimmed at the bottom with two shaped ruffles of the material. The blouse forms a box-plait in front, ornamented with gold buttons, on each side of which is a group of plaits. T The double shoulder collar is attached by a band of the material, the ends turned back and ornamented with embroidery. The chemisette is of lace, or gipure, and the girdle is of leather. The sleeves are finished just below the elbows with cuffs of motifs of embroid- the material and ery. Flowered Nat Tea Gown. Flowered net was the material used for a handsome tea gown recently on view. A design of pale pink roses with the faintest of green leaves on white net was made over a lining of pale pink silk and the tea gown was trimmed with a profusion of deep lace making a garment of the daintest description.

George Dosza was a Szekler, or peasant of Szekelfyfold, a district of Hungary. He was a quiet, law-abiding man, notable only for his great strength and tall stature. One day, however, an Austrian noble thought fit to decoy away from her father's house Dosza's only daughter, a maiden of 14. The distracted parent sought the abductor far and near, but, failing to find him, journeyed to Vienna and laid his case before the emperor. The latter only laughed. Whereupon the peasant returned to his own village and pasted upon the door of his little cabin a formal declaration of war against his sovereign. A month later he was marching on Vienna at the head of a huge, but undisciplined and ill-equipped army. At first the luck was all on his side. He defeated the regular troops in a number of pitched battles, carried by assault several large and strongly fortified towns and was actually within sight of the capital, whence the emperor had already fled, when he was betrayed into ambush through the treachery of a guide. The misfortune constituted the beginning of the end. The bulk of his followers fell away from him and were hunted through the mountains and woods like wild beasts. Altogether, it is said, that over 150,000 of them were put to the sword. The "Jack Cade of Hungary," having been taken prisoner, was seated on an iron throne, beneath which a huge fire had previously been kindled, crowned with a red-hot iron crown, and his flesh torn from his bones with red-hot pincers.—Exchange. A Revised Version. John Alden had just concluded his eloquent praises of Capt. Miles Standish and waited anxiously for Priscilla's answer. Coyly she regarded him for an instant, then, blushing, she inquired: "Why don't you speak for yourself, John?" "Great Scott!" ejaculated the young puritan, "what do you suppose I am? I ain't workin' no Hoch nor Witzhoff game—I'm runnin' a straight, legitimate matrimonial bureau, that's what I am. I'll go straight back to Cap. Standish and tell him that if he wants that female bunko-steerer at the old man Mullin's house, he'll have to get somebody else to do the job. I'm through!" And, jamming on his hat, he rushed forth, banging the door behind him, while Priscilla wept bitterly.—Detroit News. Sawyer's Description of His House. Some years ago a church convention was being held in Calais, Me., and the church members were to entertain the visitors. A visiting divine was notified that he would be hospitably cared for with Lemuel T. Sawyer. Not knowing where Mr. Sawyer lived, he was directed to the harness store of Sawyer & Halliday. As it happened, when he went in he met Mr. Sawyer and, without knowing him, asked if he could direct him to Lemuel T. Sawyer's residence. Mr. Sawyer replied: "Oh, yes; go down Main street until you come to Church avenue; turn to the right, go up the avenue, and you can't miss it; you can't miss it, as it has a brick underpinning and two mortgages on it." Conditional Piety. Two Scotch fishermen, Jamie and Sandy, belated and befogged on a rough water, were in some trepidation lest they should never get ashore again. At last Jamie said: "Sandy, I'm steering, and I think you'd better put up a bit of prayer." "I don't know how," said Sandy. "If ye don't, I'll chuck ye overboard," said Jamie. Sandy began: "Oh, Lord, I never asked anything of Ye for fifteen years, and if Ye'll only get us safe back I'll never trouble Ye again, and—" "Whisht, Sandy!" said Jamie, "the boat's touched shore; don't be beholden to anybody." -New York World One of Them. There were three men sitting together on a seat of the open car, and after they had talked politics for ten minutes one of them observed: "Excuse me, but here is my card." The other two scanned it and saw that he was Dr. So-and-So, and then the second man produced his card. It showed that he was Undertaker So-and-So. Then the two looked at the third man, who made no move to produce a card, but who presently said: "Well, I sense I perch on." "Well, I spose I sorter belong to the profession myself." "Druggist?" "No. I see to the grave-digging part." Brown's President Lost a Point. President Nicholas Brown, for whom Brown university was named, was fond of quizzing small boys. One day while walking in the streets of Providence he came upon a little fellow who attracted his notice. "How do you do, my boy?" said the president. "What is your name?" "My name is Harry, sir," replied the child. "Harry, is it?" returned President Brown. "And did you know the evil one is often called Old Harry." "Why, no, sir." answered the boy. "I thought he was called Old Nick." The first parlor car has made its appearance on the New York subway, being intended for the directorate and staff.
