Arizona Letter. Rev. J. W. Sanders, General Missionary and Evangelist of the A. M. E. Church, Tells of the Thriving Vocations of the Negro. VOL. XII. Arizona Rev. J. W. Sanders, Genera of the A. M. E. Church Vocations of PHOENIX, ARZ., MARCH 2, '06. TO COLORADO STATESMAN. In the early morning a few days ago I rolled into Phoenix, Arizona, capital of the territory and principal city of a vast agricultural valley. Within a radius of 20 miles there are half million acres of tillable land; prospects as fine as one needs. The National government will build the great Tonto dam for irrigation and allow settlers to pay back the money on easy installments without interest. The cost of the dam will be $4,000,000. It will be the highest dam in the world—270 feet above foundation and next to the great dam of the Nile in Africa. As I came into this valley in the early morn I was impressed with the luxuriance of vegetation—semitropical plants, for here I see the umbrella, fan tree and pepper tree. Here they grog oranges, grape fruit, olives, apricots, figs, lemons, peaches, grapes, pears, pumgranates, strawberries, watermelons, cantalopes are the main products. Alfalfa finds an ideal soil and clime here. A market for all these at hand. Never any snow to speak of and no ice, frost or real chilly weather. In summer when we complain of heat so much no one ever suffers from sunstroke. No wind over 5 or six miles an hour, hence, in this fertile valley, hurricanes, cyclones and tornadoes are unknown. A normal population of 12,000 is swelled during winter to 15,000; level streets, churches, schools, parks and driveways, hotels and theatres make it one of the favored spots of earth for the man who would take life easy. We have a colored population here of about 400, most all of whom are doing well. About 50 persons are property owners and are industrious people as evidenced by the different lines of activities in which they are engaged viz: First-class dining halls, barber shops, upholstering, plumbing, janitors, city gardeners, laundrys, club room, manicurist, dress-making, etc. Among the prominent property owners we might mention Mrs. Bolton, Robert Stearns, Valentine, Caldwell, Steele, Nelson, N. Green, J. A. Green, Wiggins, Payne, S. Smith, J. A. Lewis, Silvers, Miss Essex, Vaughan and many others. State Historical and N H Society, Denver, Colo SAVED BY PATR RACI ORAD THE JOURNAL Letter. 1 Missionary and Evangelist , Tells of the Thriving the Negro. At a little camp called Wickenburg Mr. and Mrs. W. H. Smith moved about 2 years ago and they went to work at Hostelry. They cut out everything but business and put their money into Hotel Vemetta nicely appointed worth now $25,000 00—here is business success. Our barbers here seem to hold their own in competition, and Messrs. Smith, Valentine and Bolton stand at the head of firstclass private boarding house. Mr. Charles Smith is in the government employ as teacher of blacksmithing at Indian school. Our church work here is under the leadership of Rev. A. Wagner, who is finishing his fourth year as pastor. Here we have a good church and a splendid people; a community above the average in progressiveness and intelligence and the pastor is to be commended for his ability to minister to this people for so long. We have two preachers who make this town their home; Rev. William E. Ratcliff and Rev. J. Smith. Among the active ones in church work is N. D. Valentine who is regarded as a pillow, having gone into the organization; Charles Smith, McClure. Robt. Williams, Theodore Thomas, Mack Pinion, Sam Steele and Laura Valentine, Mary Steele, Martha Daniels, Pheobe McCullough, Matilda Essex, Maude Watson, P. M. Maxfield, Maggie Thomas, Julia Hudson, Mary Hawkins, A. A. Lynch, Fannie Johnson, Rosa Ratcliff and Williams. The people owe less than $300 on a $4,500.00 property. A rally is now under way by which they hope to clean up all indebtedness by April 2nd. The little town, Temple, furnishes us with one of the most enthusiastic workers in missionary cause we have, in the person of Mrs. Maggie Thomas. She is a very fluent speaker and well known to all of our citizens here for her good work. We have also a Baptist organization, the pastor is Rev. Burgess, who has been here about five months. His work is progressing nicely. They hope soon to secure a lot and build a church. It appears from the foregoing that many of our people who are in crowded localities would do well to branch out and take up holmes in this fertile section where chances for success are more than hopeful J. W. SANDERS. Mrs. A. B. Tatum has been confined to her bed with rheumatism for the last ten days. Rev. J. Stephen Smith, who has been seriously ill during the past week, is slowly convalessing. A snug sum was realized for the church by the grand jubilee which was given last Thursday evening. Many requested that the Jubilee be repeated. The spring election is drawing near and Durango colored citizens are petitioning for one of their number to be appointed as judge during the election. E.G. Rudgear has presented the city with two valuable lots for a library site and A. Carnegie has given $12,000 to erect a library building. Avenues of employment are steadily opening up for our people in Durango. Last week a colored man was placed in charge of the Newman block which for the past seven years was in charge of a mexican. The salary is quite large and the position is highly appreciated by our people. Any desirous and honest colored person can secure lucrative employment here, but this is no place for loafers. John Lawson is still at the hospital but is much improved. The weather overhead is fine but somewhat disagreeable under foot. Mrs. Robert Worthy is improving very fast but is not able to be up yet. Mrs. Mary Fowler is very ill at the residence of her daughter, Mrs. H. Moore. Messrs. James Western of Las Vegas, N. M., and Charles Scott, formerly of Kansas City, have returned to La Junta for the spring. Master J. Marshal was certainly master of his game last week while out amid the jungles, but it was much feared that he would be overtaken by some ferocious animal while on his long trip. Rev. Solly is back again and the church appreciates his presence more than ever because we realize the profit we gain from the well after it has gone dry and become filled once more. Sunday was general class and the few remarks delivered by our pastor were well taken. The La Junta Household of Ruth is realizing more members every week and our mother to our house is above the average and we feel toward her as a mother indeed. We feel as though our lodge will be more prosperous than any in DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, MARCH 10, 1906. Durango Notes.

RACE NEWS Gathered from Various Sources. Justain E. Carter, colored, lieutenant in the Eighth Regiment, I. N. G., and a mail carrier at the postoffice, assigned to the Armour station was held to the federal grand jury, Chicago by United States Commissioner Foote on a charge of stealing mail. On January 10th the Pekin vanderille theatre of Chicago, Ill., was destroyed by fire. The Pekin was the only theatre owned by colored people in the West. Robt. Motts, proprietor, states that he will immediately rebuild a $15,000 theatre on the old site. The House Committee on claims at Washington, D. C., decided to report favorably on a claim of the family of Samuel Lee for $10,000. Lee was a Negro elected to the Forty-sixth Congress from North Carolina, but was prevented from being sworn in by filibustering. He is now dead, and his heirs will be paid the two years' salary in case the bill passes. One hundred and seven operations for dropsy of the liver were performed upon Mrs. Hattie Cronin of Springfield, Mass., who died a few days ago. At each operation about three gallons of fluid were taken from her body. The case is one of the most remarkable ever brought to the attention of physicians. Mrs. Cronin was 28 years old. Cornelius J. Jones, a Negro prominent in the business circles in Muscogee, has bought the town site of Chase, which is eight miles west of Muscogee, for $4,000. Mr. Jones intends to make [of Chase an exclusively Negro town. He also desires to make it an educational and industrial centre similar to Tuskegee, Ala. If he succeeds, Chase will be the most famous town in the West. At Baton Rouge, La., a few days ago during the annual conference of the African Methodist Episcopal church, Rev. Thomas Dixon and his books were censured. Bishop M. B. Saltar of South Carolina, said: "Thomas Dixon, who wrote 'The Leopard Spots' and 'The Clansman,' is an agent of the devil, and when he said there is no virtue among the Negroes he promulgated a falsehood as black as hell, I thank God he does not represent the thought of the best white people of the country. He is worse than a murderer." Members of the "Abyssinia" company, headed by Williams and Walker, have sent to Mrs. Alice Roosevelt Longworth, a handsome silver punch bowl, lined with gold. Its cost was estimated at about $800, paid for by contributions of the company. There is an allegorical sketch engraved on the bowl picturing the progress of the Afro-American people, while a faithful likeness of President Roosevelt smiles benign approval. The card accompanying the bowl bore this legend: "From some colored New York admirers, with their respectful wishes for your future happiness." Mrs. Dora Leonard, fashionably clad was fined $10 in the Court of Criminal Correction of St. Louis a few days ago for refusing to answer the questions of a Negro attorney. She engaged in a colloquy with Judge Hiram Moore and was reprimanded. Mrs. Leonard was prosecuting Phoebe McElroy, formerly employed by her as a servant, whom she accused of stealing a pillow slip and towels. H. H. Hofer, counsel for the defense, endeavored to get Mrs. Leonard to tell how she identified the articles. She refused to reply to his question, saying: "I don't have to answer a nigger." Judge Moore imposed the fine and ordered her in custody of the sheriff till it was paid. She paid, still insisting that she would not answer the "nigger." Like a ray of sunshine through clouds of threatening darkness came the news from Kalamazoo Thursday last that Bert Burton, colored, charged with criminal assault, has been acquitted of the charge. Mr. Burton and Miss Daugherty a pretty white girl, became lovers in the town of Three Rivers last year and, deciding to marry, they "eloped" to Kalamazoo to have the ceremony performed. In this they were frustrated, as they could not find anyone to marry them, and they stopped over night at a hotel. Burton was arrested the next morning and the girl's father swore out a warrant against him, charging criminal assault. Not only was Burton acquitted of the charge, but the crowd of white people in the court room applauded the verdict. Miss Daugherty was a witness in the case and was true as steel to her affianced husband, her testimony being entirely in his favor. Dayton, O., March 1.—The estate of Paul Laurence Dunbar, the poet, consists of miscellaneous personality, with realty scattered here and there, according to enu- NO. 2. merations contained in his will, which was admitted to probate today.

All of our friends are invited to attend Sunday school. We have very interesting study of the Bible. Come and spend an hour with us. Subject for Sunday, "The Tongue and the Temper" Mr. and Mrs. Slaughter, accompanied by their son, left Sunday morning for Denver, their future home. We are sorry to lose such good citizens. They have our best wishes for success. Boulder Notes. The Trustees have arranged for a big rally June 1st. Two captians are in the field, Bros. Oscar White and Sister E McVey. Joseph D. D. Rivers visited Boulder Saturday in the interest of his paper he was delighted with Boulder and the improvement among the colored people. The monthly entertainment that was given by the sewing circle at Mrs. O. White was all that could be desired in the way of delightful amusement. A well rendered program of music and songs was a pleasing feature. Mrs. Thomas Rucker died Thursday march 1. She was a woman of a sweet disposition, and the mother of 9 children. She also leaves a husband, a mother, 1 brother, 3 sisters and a host of friends who mourn her death. She was buried from the A. M. E. church Sunday afternoon Rev. Tolson officiated. A.

Brought to the very verge of starvation by the rejection of all nourishment, her vitality almost destroyed, the recovery of Mrs. J. A. Wyatt, of No. 1188 Seventh street, Des Moines, Iowa, seemed hopeless. Her physicians utterly failed to reach the seat of the difficulty and death must have resulted if she had not pursued an independent course suggested by her sister's experience. Mrs. Wyatt says: "I had pain in the region of the heart, palpitation and shortness of breath so that I could not walk very fast. My head ached very badly and I was seized with vomiting spells whenever I took any food. A doctor was called who pronounced the trouble gastritis, but he gave me no relief. Then I tried a second doctor without benefit. By this time I had become very weak. I could not keep the most delicate broth on my stomach, and at the end of a mouth I was scarcely more than skin and bone and was really starving to death. "Then I recalled how much benefit my sister had got from Dr. Williams' Pink Pills and decided to take them in place of the doctor's medicine. It proved a wise decision for they helped me as nothing else had done. Soon I could take weak tea and crackers and steadily more nourishment. In two weeks I was able to leave my bed. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills were the only thing that checked the vomiting and as soon as that was stopped my other difficulties left me. I have a vigorous appetite now and am able to attend to all the duties of my home. I praise Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People to all my friends because I am thoroughly convinced of their merit." Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are sold by all drummers and by the Dr. Williams Medicine Co., Schenectady, N.Y. IMPROVEMENT SOCIETIES How They May Be Organized In Every Town. The organization of a society is simple. A president, secretary and treasurer are the necessary officers, and the committees which are appointed may be as many or as few as are required, says Harper's Bazar. It is very desirable to interest the town officials and the prominent citizens of the place and secure their co-operation. The school teachers should be enlisted and through them the children may be reached. The young people also should have a share in making plans for the town. The dues should be small, possibly $2 a year paid in quarterly sums, and in some places a promise of two days' work a year is also added, one day being given to home improvements, and the other to those of a public character. The most important committee, because the one whose work is fundamental, is that on sanitation. The members are to investigate the town's water supply, the public sewers and drains, and the back premises of houses. The refuse too often thrown in rubbish heaps is to be carted away and destroyed; a place is to be provided for ash piles, and one where garbage may be carried by a public official and burned. These unsightly spots should be far from the center of the town and a thick hedge may screen the place from the highway. In all public places such as the railroad station, the village corners, and park had the schoolhouse yards there should be neat rubbish boxes placed, painted, not a burning red, as is too often the case, but a soft and inconspicuous leaf-green. A PERFECT HAND. How Its Appearance Became Familiar to the Public. The story of how probably the most perfect feminine hand in America became known to the people is rather interesting. As the story goes the possessor of the hand was with some friends in a photographer's one day and while talking, held up a piece of candy. The pose of the hand with its perfect contour and faultless shape attracted the attention of the artist who proposed to photograph it. The result was a beautiful picture kept in the family until one day, after reading a letter from someone inquiring as to who wrote the Postum and Grape-Nuts advertisements. Mr. Post said to his wife, "We receive so many inquiries of this kind, that it is evident some people are curious to know, suppose we let the advertisising department have that picture of your hand to print and name it "A Helping Hand." (Mrs. Post has assisted him in preparation of some of the most famous advertisements). There was a natural shrinking from the publicity, but with an agreement that no name would accompany the picture its use was granted. The case was presented in the light of extending a welcoming hand to the friends of Postum and Grape-Nuts, so the picture appeared on the back covers of many of the January and February magazines and became known to millions of people. Many artists have commented upon it as probably the most perfect hand in the world. The advertising dept. of the Postum Co. did not seem able to resist the temptation to enlist the curiosity of the public, by refraining from giving the name of the owner when the picture appeared but stated that the name would be given later in one of the newspaper announcements, thus seeking to induce the readers to look for and read the forthcoming advertisements to learn the name of the owner. This combination of art and commerce and the multitude of inquiries furnishes an excellent illustration of the interest the public takes in the personal and family life of large manufacturers whose names become household words through extensive and continuous announcements in newspapers and periodicals.

RESIGNATION IS ACCEPTED Crisis Comes at An Awkward Time and May Embarrass Moroccan Conference—Trouble is Over Anti-Church Crusade. Paris.—Like a bolt of lightning from a clear sky the Rouvier ministry was defeated in the Chamber of Deputies Wednesday night and immediately resigned. The Cabinet crisis comes at a most dramatic moment, when the Franco-German contest has reached a decisive stage, and may exert an important adverse influence on the Algeciras conference and on European affairs. The defeat of the government came on a comparatively minor debate over the church disorders. The government succeeded in holding only 234 votes, while the various elements in opposition—Clericals, Socialists and Nationalists—united and polled 267 votes, thus placing the ministry in a minority of 33. Premier Rouvier, with all of his colleagues, immediately proceeded to the foreign office, where a joint letter of resignation was prepared. Later M. Rouvier presented this letter to President Fallieres, who accepted it. The President announced his intention of consulting the presidents of the Senate and Chamber of Deputies to-morrow relative to the formation of a new cabinet. The debate in the chamber was on the bloody riot yesterday during the taking of an inventory of a church in the village of Boeschepe, resulting in the death of a manifestant. Various orators severely criticised the government's course, asserting that it threatened to precipitate a religious warfare. Premier Rouvier responded: "The government has the duty to apply the law. It will apply it without weakness, but also with the prudence, tact and wisdom consistent with public tranquility. I ask the adoption of a resolution approving these declarations of the government." The resolution was thereupon put to a vote and defeated. The result was due to a combination of opposition influences. The vote was more expressive of personal antagonism to the ministry than opposition to church inventories. Prior to the Cabinet crisis, the Franco-German controversy over Moroccan control seemed to be in the balance, with the inclination strongly toward an agreement. All depended upon Berlin's last word. If this was a frank concession of a Franco-Spanish policy without impossible conditions, then agreement was assured; but if the concession involved further conditions, France, whose pride was already much aroused, was prepared to reject it. The foreign office stated the situation as follows: "The reported German concession has not been communicated to us, and we are therefore unable definitely to state what action may be taken thereon. One thing, however, can be stated with absolute positiveness, namely, if the German concession of the police question is conditioned upon international supervision it will not be accepted. It is generally believed that M. Rouvier, until his successor is appointed, will continue to carry on the same policy. THE CHINESE BOYCOTT It Has Not Seriously Damaged American Trade. Wash.2gton.—In view of the widespread feeling regarding the effect of the Chinese boycott of American goods, Secretary Metcalf of the Department of Commerce and Labor has given out a statement showing the amount of exports from this country to China by months, July, 1904, to January, 1905, and from July, 1905, to January, 1906, respectively. It appears from this that the total exports for the seven months ending January, 1905, amounted to $23,432,948, whereas for the seven months ending January, 1906, they equaled $28,862,680, or a total increase of $5,429,732. The shipments of cotton cloth goods for the period first mentioned amounted to $12,947,530, while for the seven months ending January, 1906, they were $19,606,848. There was likewise an increase in the exports of copper ingots, the amounts being stated at $1,478,197 for the period ending January 1905, and $3,195,850 for the period ending January, 1906. A decrease of nearly 100 per cent. is shown in the exports of mineral oils, the amount of such shipments for the seven months ending January, 1905, being $5,222,307, whereas they were only $2,696,000 for the same period of time up to January, 1906. The statement shows that the exports of the products named were vastly less in January, 1906, than they were in the month preceding, cotton goods falling off to the extent of $500,000, copper ingots $134,600, and mineral oils $297,960. Sustain President's Power. Washington, D. C.—The Senate committee on forest reservations voted unanimously with the exception of Senator Kittredge, South Dakota, to adversely report the bill of Senator Heyburn to take away from the President the right to create forest reservations and place it solely in the hands of Congress. At the hearing on this bill Heyburn appeared in its advocacy and Forester Pinchot spoke in reply. Heyburn has asked for another hearing that he might present further statements, and the committee decided to grant his request though giving no assurances that it would change its position. THE B.L.

Otis Skinner Unsuccessful in Fooled Englishman. It is a common experience of American tourists to be recognized at once as Americans when in England, and the readiness of the English in letting one know that he is stamped, as it were, with the word America is often annoying, no matter how patriotic one may be, says Ethel Shackleford, in Lippincott's. For this reason it often happens that tourists affect an English accent for the time being. When Mr. and Mrs. Otis Skinner were abroad last summer they grew very weary of having things explained to them as though they were foreigners and unable to understand the English language. Mr. Skinner was not inclined to go into a shop in Warwick one day so that Mrs. Skinner might inquire the price of something in the window which caught her fancy; he insisted that the clerk would instantly class his voice as American, or his clothes, or something, and it was all so tiresome. "Why don't you use that wonderful stage English accent of yours and fool the man?" suggested the clever wife. The idea was a good one, and Mr. Skinner smiled and went in confidently, asking—with the rising inflection and true British casual manner—the price of his wares. Mrs. Skinner was charmed with the art of performance. "This 'ere one, sir!" asked the shopkeeper. "Weil, sir, hit sells for four shillings, sir, which is habout one dollar in your money, sir."

FISHER, General Passenger Agent Denver, Colo. H.C.BROWN DEAD DONOR OF COLORADO CAPITOL SITE DIES IN SAN DIEGO. BUILT BROWN PALACE HOTEL California Forty-Niner—Colorado Pioneer of 1860—One of the Famous Empire Builders of the Great West. San Diego, Cal.—Henry C. Brown, the well-known capitalist of Denver, died Tuesday evening in his rooms in the Hotel Robinson, where he had been since last Thanksgiving, having come West for his health. The cause of his death was a general breaking down on account of old age. He was eighty-five years old November 18th last. His son, James H. Brown, was with him at the time of his death. With the death of Henry Cordes Brown, one of the most vital forces which made Denver the great city that it is has been removed. The life of the man who made such a notable fortune reads like a story of adventure. Born in St. Claire county, Ohio, of sturdy American stock, he early evinced a desire to wander away from the beaten paths. As a boy, and in conformity with the custom of the times, he was apprenticed to a farmer, and later learned the carpenter trade after having received such an education as the schools of the district in which he lived offered. His first venture from home was made into West Virginia, where he engaged in the work he knew, receiving as compensation $5 a month. Hearing of the gold finds in California, he crossed the plains with an oxtime and reached the land of promise in 1849, the trip occupying 110 days. Having made several trips into the Northwest he returned to California, where he went into the contracting and building business, later going to South America, where he lived for six months, coming back to America by way of Cape Horn. From the moment he came to Colorado in 1860 he had firm faith in the possibilities of the state, a faith which was shaken but once, when, after many discouragements, he offered a certain transfer company, in return for passage back to Kansas for himself and family, all the land which he had acquired, extending from Broadway to the City park and from Tenth avenue to Colfax avenue. The offer was refused, and H. C. Brown was fastened firmly to the wheel of Denver's progress. Before leaving St. Joseph, Missouri, from which point he made his entry into the West, he had married Miss Jane Thompson, who came with him into the new land and was always a helpmeet when the days seemed darkest. Among the first ventures of the man whose efforts were crowned by the splendid hotel which bears his name, was the purchase, in 1872, of the newspaper now known as the Republican, formerly known as the Denver Tribune, which he afterward sold. Another venture was the establishment of a bank at the corner of Sixteenth and Market streets. With the late ex-Governor John Evans he built the tramway, at one time being owner of one-third of the stock of the corporation. But perhaps he will be longest remembered by Coloradoans as having been the donor of the property upon which the state capitol is built and as having built, the great hotel which will ever stand as a monument to his enterprise and public spirit as a citizen. He at one time was the owner of the entire Brown & Clement's addition, and while he owned property which is to-day valued at from $15,000,000 to $20,000,000, he died a comparatively poor man. The deceased is survived by three children—James H. Brown, Dr. Sherman T. Brown and Mrs. Carrie H. Casell. ASSAILS THE TARIFF. Rucker of Missouri Declares for Bryan and Low Tariff. Washington.—In the House Tuesday Mr. Rucker of Missouri brought forth arguments designed to sustain the Democratic idea of tariff for revenue only and he closed with the prediction that these ideas would prevail, with W. J. Bryan as the standard bearer in the next campaign. Comparing the increase in the products of the farm and the factory and the value of productive and industrial property under high and low tariffs, Mr. Rucker drew the conclusion that the lower the tariff the greater had been the increase of wealth; that since 1850 the tariff had been made high and the increase of production had been less. Turning his attention to the tariff on Mergenthaler typesetting machines, Mr. Rucker said it had been determined that these machines could be produced for $500 and yet they were sold for $3,000 because of the tariff. There were 20,000 publications in this country affected by this price. Thousands of petitions from editors had been sent to the present Congress "urging the removal of this prohibitory and monopolistic duty." Shonts on Panama Canal. Washington. — Chairman Thedorec P. Shonts of the Isthmian Canal Commission, under examination all day by the Senate canal committee, answered questions technical and personal concerning the plans for the construction of the great waterway and his relations to the organization. Incidentally he left the inference that he would gladly sever his connection with the Clover Leaf Route if this was demanded, but that he would not take his family to the isthmus. He gave former Chief Engineer Wallace a good record and said he was entitled to consideration in the matter of taking his family to the isthmus. Mr. Shonts closed by urging Congress to take action immediately on the type of canal to be constricted. He said that economical procedure on the part of the canal commission demanded such action. POSTOFFICE FOR DENVER. Senate Committee Recommends Large Appropriation. Washington.—In his report upon the bill to appropriate $2,300,000 for a new federal building at Denver, Senator Warren presented the following facts: "The present public building in Denver was authorized under an act of May 8, 1882. The building was not completed until 1893, and before it was occupied it was found that the city had grown to such an extent that the building was not nearly large enough to accommodate the federal business. The inadequacy of the present building at the time it was first occupied was due to the rapid growth of the city and surrounding country after authority for construction of the building was given and before it could be used. "It is estimated that when the original bill was passed, in 1882, Denver had a population of less than 40,000. By 1890 the number had increased to 106,000 and to over 133,000 in 1900, and there had been corresponding growth in the population of the state of Colorado and the entire Rocky mountain region contiguous to that city. The result was an expansion of business far in excess of the calculations of the designers of the original building and failure of the structure from the beginning to meet the demands upon it. The growth of the city and contiguous country has continued since the occupancy of the present building in 1893 until now it is conservatively calculated that the city has a population of 175,000. "The consequence is that there is a crowding together in public offices of officials, employees and papers that should not be permitted, with consequent congestion of business that is appalling. "Outside the federal building, located in different portions of" the city, more or less remote, are offices of the United States district attorney, surveyor general's office, United States land offices, War Department headquarters, department of Colorado, the United States geological survey, reclamation service, forestry division and pension offices." The report quotes the recommendation of the secretary of the treasury for a new building, who states: "It is estimated that a four-story and basement building of 45,000 square feet ground area will be sufficient, and that a fireproof building of the dimensions indicated will cost $1,800,000. It is estimated that a suitable site can be secured for from $500,000 to $800,000 additional." "Comparison of Denver's postoffice facilities with those of other western cities will be most interesting in this connection." "Dallas, with a population of 42,638, has a postoffice building occupying a full block front and from twice to three times as large as the present postoffice building in Denver. "Kansas City has a postoffice building four or five times as large as Denver's. "The Omaha and Salt Lake postoffice buildings are two or three times as large as the Denver postoffice building." NATIONAL GUARD. Coming Inspection of Colorado Troops. Denver.—Adj. Gen. Bulkeley Wells has announced the dates of the annual inspection of the National Guard of Colorado. The following order has been issued; Circular No. 1.

Orchard Marked for Death. Portland, Ore. — The Oregonian prints a special from its correspondent at Boise, Idaho, which states in substance that the "inner circle" of the Western Federation of Miners did not confine itself to the murder of nonunion miners and state officials, but that the tools who committed these crimes were themselves victims of the "inner circle." Orchard was one of the tools marked for destruction, and the confession of Steve Adams is said to show that Orchard had been shadowed for a long time. It is not believed that Orchard knew that he was under suspicion, but there is every reason to believe that he stood in fear of death at the hands of those by whom he was employed.

Read Mrs. Dimmick's letters. Her first letter: Dear Mrs. Pinkham— "I have been a sufferer for the past eight years with a trouble which first originated from painful periods—the pains were excruciating, with inflammation and ulceration of the female organs. The doctor says I must have an operation or I cannot live. I do not want to submit to operation I am possibly misit. Please me,"—Mrs. Mary Dimmick, Washington, D.C. Her second letter: Dear Mrs. Pinkham— "You will remember my condition when I last wrote you, and that the doctor said I must have an operation or I could not live. I received your kind letter and followed your advice very carefully and am now entirely well. As my case was so serious it seems a miracle that I am cured. I know that I owe not only my health but my life to Lydia and I owe not only my health but your advice. I can walk miles without an ache or a pain, and I wish every suffering woman would read this letter and realize what you can do for them."—Mrs. Mary Dimmick, 59th and East Capitol Streets, Washington, D.C. How easy it was for Mrs. Dimmick to write to Mrs. Pinkham at Lynn, Mass., and how little it cost her—a two-cent stamp. Yet how valuable was the reply As Mrs. Dimmick says—it saved her life. Mrs. Pinkham has on file thousands of just such letters as the above, and offers ailing women helpful advice. NAL USE OF obs Oil It penetrates to the seat of torture, and relief promptly follows.

If Denver really does have an honest election next May, it will be interesting to see the results. There has not been that kind of an election here in so long that nobody really knows how much of a majority the Republicans normally have. Democrats and others may sniff at Republican policies, but they do not object to Republican prosperity is popular with everybody. It reaches the rich and the poor. It is for the just and the unjust, Jew and Gentile, and they are all getting it in greater or less degree. We are glad they are getting it. The more they have, the surer they are to eventually support the Republican policies that have helped bring it about. The governor is always one of the hardest worked men in the state, and Governor McDonald is no exception to the rule. In addition to all his properly executive duties, he is called upon all the time to head committees of all sorts, and do any number of things with which his office has no natural connection. As Kipling said about "Bobs," Governor McDonald "does not advertise," but he takes it all as it comes, in his good natured way, and gets through a pile of work without turning a hair. THE BOY THE FATHER OF THE MAN. In thinking over the divorce evil to which reference was made in these columns some weeks ago we felt we did not go the bottom of the question. This great question is not gotten at from the right view point. The real man or woman is desernable in the boy and girl today. There is no disguising the fact that the child tryant in the home today will be the man or woman tryant in the home in a few short years. It is the thoughtless, heedless, careless, labor making child today that will make the same kind of husband or wife a few years after. It is the boy who is impudent to his mother and seniors today that will treat his wife with disrespect tomorrow It would be an excellent thing if young people who intend to wed would find out what kind of treatment their lovers accorded to their mothers and sisters, and in this way they would be able to know what treatment the wife might expect in the future; for the guarantee of the future lies in the ever present. Temper, disposition, habits, faults are modified sometimes by experience, environments etc., but on the whole, the man of tomorrow is in the boy today and this fact is the best estimate we can place upon character, kindness, courtesy, gallantry, patience, consideration, must be in the boy or it will never appear in the man. Let the mothers of the present feel a greater sense of responsibility for the happiness of the homes of the future and those homes will be made happier. The divorce should get its first and real settlement at the hands of the mothers today. PATTERSON AND THE SUPREME COURT. A vital question is now to be passed upon by the Supreme court that will be of National interest not to Colorado alone but to the entire newspaper fraternity, Justice Brewer of the U. S. Supreme court entered an order granting a writ of error in the contempt case of Senator Patterson. The case grows out of the publication of a cartoon of the State Supreme court in the News of which Senator Patterson is proprietor, for this the State court held the Senator to be in contempt and assessed a fine of $1000. The case will now be reviewed by a full bench of judges and be handed down as a precedent for constructive contempt, heretofore there has been no ruling to govern such cases and the court will now establish a rule. Mr. Patterson is very fortunate indeed in having the case to come up on its merits and to be settled by the highest tribunal of the land. It will also give an opportunity to see where and how the lower court erred and whether prejudice entered into the case or not. If Mr. Patterson could have the "Caucus Binding," decision decided at the same time and by the same court he would be going some and making history fast for verile Colorado. The dashing bride of the Rockies that Mr. Patterson has the honor to represent for the last time in the Senate. EDUCATIONAL CHANGES AMONG THE NEGROES OF THE SOUTHLAND. The Negro of the present period is not by any means the Negro of sixty years ago; nor the Negro of thirty years ago, for that matter. That he is changing is just as evident as looking at the changing figures in a kaleidoscope. A little more than a quarter of a century ago it was difficult to tell who was the greater slave; the master or the toiler in the field. He who slept with a revolver under his downy pillow, or he who laid his weary body down at night on the cabin floor. He who sipped his coffee at a comfortable hour in the morning or he who arose with the first peep of the sun to go forth under the dictum and whip of overseer. Apprehensiveness was mirrored in the face and stirred the soul of the slave owner. Comprehensiveness and desire to learn was evidenced upon the countenance and in the mind of the slave. These two forces working in opposite directions yet have been productive of remarkable results. The Ghost of desire to learn would not down and teachable blacks were found everywhere with spelling book in hand and the consequences are that today everywhere in the Southland are found day schools, boarding schools, primary, secondary and normal schools, industrial schools, theological and manual training schools, supported by public or private charity and sometimes no support at all, but still existing and turning out students imbued with the spirit of self help and aggressiveness. Every burg, hamlet, county and city has one or more of these schools. In fact, the schools seem overdone rather than neglected and the new problem will be to correlate and systematize this work so as to bring it into proper gradation. The spread of these educational institutions means better homes, better churches, better business methods, better lives and better services in every way. The school uplift means the uplift of the race and this is being successfully done everywhere throughout the South. This educational uplift is being greatly aided by the moral and religious work of the churches who are doing a tremendous work and whose power is being felt in every avenue of life. With these forces operative and multiplying there is no question but a brighter outlook is ahead and the race has everything to hope.

Denver, Colo -W. G. S. Careful Woman Used All of Celery Bunch to Advantage MANUSCRIPTS OF GREAT MAN WARLIKE MOOD OF MEXICO IN RUSSIA CENTURIES AGO ALL HIS AMBITION VAIN HAT salad is delicious. Not many of us can afford celery. It is too expensive; there is so much waste. "I'll have to explain," said Phoebe. "I would be too poor to buy things to throw away. I HAT salad is delicious. Not many of us can afford celery. It is too expensive; there is so much waste. "I'll have to explain," said Phoebe. "We are too poor to buy things to throw away. I never throw anything away unless it is spoiling. Spoiled food is worse than none. I use up the bits as we go along; then they are always fresh and good. "This bunch of celery cost me 8 cents. I picked out the freshest bunch at the market. It was fresh clear to the tips of the leaves. "First, I cleaned the whole thing, separating the stalks and cutting off any brown bruised places, being careful not to waste it in cutting. "The leaves I shredded and used to season the stuffing for a roast. Sage disagrees with John, but celery suits to a T. "The outside stalks (two of them, you must remember that I am not cooking for a family of ten). I chopped and cooked with the roast. They came out nice and tender in the gravy. "The rest I put away in a cold place." Prof. Albert H. Smyth of the Central high school, Philadelphia, who is declared to know more about Franklin than any other man living, in an address before the Pennsylvania History club sketched the history of public and private collections of Franklin manuscripts he had perused, says the Philadelphia Ledger. He told the following anecdote of J. Pierpont Morgan's collection: "I was much surprised to learn that Mr. Morgan owned valuable Franklin manuscripts, and as he was abroad at the time I wrote to his nephew, Junius Morgan, this gentleman suggested that we should 'break into' his uncle's residence, and we did so, spending an afternoon in the financier's library. I found three complete sets of Franklin manuscripts, but not the Collinson letters, which I was anxious to see. Finally, as night was setting in, we discovered a wonderful pile of manuscripts, including Pope's 'Rape of the Lock', stories by Poe, novels of Fenimore Cooper and others, and from the center of it I extracted the 'Correspondence of Franklin and Peter Collinson.'" Prof. Smyth also read the collection of Franklin letters owned by the The younger men of the country, says F. R. Guernsey, in the February Atlantic, have shown a decided bent toward military life, and thousands of them have voluntarily subjected themselves to drill and discipline. Steadily, and without making any parade of its purpose, the government has devoted much attention and money to the perfecting of its army. Military men have been stationed in Europe to watch the evolution of their art among Continental armies and to gather technical information as to new weapons. To-day, the Mexican army is largely officered by young and devoted men who have received a scientific training, and the military strength of the nation has increased appreciably. Mexico has learned much from the Boer war and from the Russo-Japanese conflict. She desires above all things peace and progress, but she is armed and prepared for One who traveled through Russia in 1698 wrote in Latin an interesting account of what he saw. These were afterward translated into English, in part as follows: "The Muscovites are generally of a very strong Constitution, both very tall and bulky. Above one-half of the Year is taken up with their Fasts, when the common people feed upon nothing else but Cabbage and Cucumbers, and these, raw, only pickled." The writer, Henry William Ludolph, has leanings toward vegetarianism, for he added: "This is an evident sign of their natural vigour, though it must also be allowed that they promote the digestion by the Brandy and Leeks which they use in large quantities, and questionless correct the viscous Humours arising in the Stomach by such indigestible Nourishments." There was once a young man who came from a wee bit of a town; and whenever he would tell folks where he was raised they would ask him where that was. It irked the young man to find that his native town was such an inconspicuous place, and he said to himself: "I will hustle around and make myself famous, and then Blink Center will get some notice, for after I have become a celebrity everybody will learn that I was born and raised there." So for years and years he climbed the path of fame, until at last his name was known in every house in the land. And then he died, and folks talked a good deal about him, and his life was cited to the young people as an "That was Sunday. Monday I took the celery stalks, all but the very inside ones, and stewed and creamed them. I covered the celery with water. When the celery had boiled tender I poured the water off into a wide-mouthed bottle, corking it tightly, and saved it. I buttered and salted the celery, tossing it up with a fork to keep it from burning, then covered it with milk, brought it to a boil, thickened it a little, and—we ate it. "Tuesday I took the gravy left from the roast, put this with the fat off the roast into about a pint of water, sliced in an onion, put in two leftover baked potatoes, sliced fine, dropped in two or three spoonfuls of breaded tomato left from the day before, and brought the whole to a boil. When the mixture boiled I put in three raw potatoes pared and halved lengthwise (they boil more quickly that way), and when the potatoes were done and the onion tender I put in the remnants of the roast itself, dashed in that bottle of celery juice that I had saved, let the whole come to a boil once more, took out the meat, thickened the gravy a little, poured it over the meat, and—we ate that. That celery water seasoned the stew to a turn. "You have just now eaten the celery hearts in the salad. "That's all. I saved leaves and juices. There wasn't much waste in that 8-cent bunch, was there?" Adams family, which were locked in a vault of the Massachusetts Historical society, to remain there until the present generation of the family had passed away. "I was entertained by Brooks Adams at his country home," said Prof. Smyth. "I felt certain that my eyes would never rest on the Adams manuscripts, and was considerably surprised when Mr. Adams said to me: 'Of course, if you want to see them you can, since I have the key.' I lost no time taking advantage of his offer." Prof. Smyth referred to the Franklin collection owned by Lord Lansdowne, to which he had access. While the guest of Lord Fitz-Maurice his lordship told of the copies of the collection made by Henry Stevens and sent to Washington with the understanding that the United States government was to purchase them. The copies were not purchased, and remain locked up in one of the federal buildings to this date, where no one is allowed to consult them. Lord Fitz-Maurice declared that Stevens' death was hastened by his treatment by the American government. any warlike contingency. This is simply a policy dictated by self-respect. It may be noted here that during the Russo-Japanese war the sympathies of those young men of the middle class, who have Indian blood in their veins, were strongly with the brown warriors of Nippon. Mexican Indians of cultivation, of whom there are thousands, regard themselves as descendants of the men of the Orient; their race memory preserves, unobliterated, the record of the wrongs done them by the white conquerors from Spain. Even men with but a slight admixture of Indian blood speak with bitterness of the deeds of Hernan Cortes and his fellow conquistadores. The rise of Japan is far from displeasing to the thoughtful and reading Indians of Mexico. There exists a race patriotism which will make itself felt in the national policies of the near future. Giles Fletcher, an English traveler, saw Moscow fired by an army of Tartars in 1571, in the absence of Czar Ivan the Terrible. He writes: "There was nothing but whirlwinds and such a noise as though the heavens would have fallen." According to Fletcher, numerous persons were burned to death, while crowds struggling to escape from the flames met and the ensuing crush resulted in thousands of fatalities. He asserts that "there perished at that time by the fire and the press the number of 800,000 or more." This estimate, of course, was excessive. As a means of getting rid of the dead bodies, says Fletcher, the Czar Ivan ordered them on his return to be thrown into the Moskva, and the corpses damned the deep and rapid river and caused it to overflow its banks. example of what persistence and industry accomplish. At last his fame grew so lustrous that it was necessary to organize a society bearing his name. Then the society got to work and looked up his birthplace. Did the society locate it at Blink Center? No; for nobody at Blink Center could remember anything of such a family as his. So the brass tablet in memory of his birtht was affixed to a tumbledown house in the outskirts of a city 100 miles from Blink Center. However, it was easier for excursionists to get there than to go to Blink Center on a jerkwater railway. Yet this teaches us that all is vanity and that we often cut a good deal of ice without first building an icehouse. —Cleveland Leader CITY NEWS. Rev. W. W. S.

During the revival meetings held by the various churches of Denver there were many who professed a hope in Christ. It is needless to say that they will meet with many temptations to again turn to their worldly ways as many have already been harrassed as to their religion. No person with any re- spect for religion or for themselves would attempt to influence a young convert to degradation and those who practice such methods are not fit to as associate with decent people or live in a decent community. If you cannot give them a word of cheer dont put a stumbling block in their road. Those who respect the gray hairs of old men need not observe the fact in the case of James Cartwright, as he does not care for it even though his hair is as white as cotton.

"THE ROSE of KILDARE" Bugle Song of the Lady of the Lake-A Faeryland Echo from Glendalough and the Vale of Avoca-Song of the Siren of the Meeting of the Waters. MIND SIX MONTHS BLANK AN ERROR IN JVDGMENT IN TROUBLE OVER MEASLES TO MAKE JOURNALISM PAY On the Lakes of Killarney the bugle was blowing Its sweet, elfin challenge, so thin and so clear. A fairyland echo with harmony flowing. That ring over the billows its message Through dim, purple glens, over crags of the mountains. The voice of the bugle still hung on the breeze. And rippling like spray of the murmuring fountains It swooned in the arms of grim, sentinel trees! Who waked this keen strain of such exquisite rapture? Who roused all the echoes and thrills every breast? Some radiant seraph such cadence might capture. 'Twas an archangel's summons that presaged sweet rest. The fisherman's skiff swayed and tossed out of the water. The rustling leaves babbled and quivered in throng. 'Twas the nymph of the grove, 'twas the fisherman's daughter. That poured such an exquisite, jubilant song. Rich music on water sounds sweeter than slumber. It steals like a sigh or a sob of the past. It soothes all the griefs and the troubles that cumber. It halls all the woes and the sorrows that last The songs of the Siren held spellbound the sailor. And lured the bold mariner to plunge in the foam. To the caves of the sea with the mermaid for lailer—. To die like an outcast, an exile from home. Six months passed as a single night, dropping to sleep in California, awakening in a foreign land, thousands of miles across the sea; retiring in affluent circumstances, arising a beggar; passing into the "death of each day's life" a happy married man, returning to consciousness a widower—these are the strange experiences undergone by William S. Smith, special organizer of the American Federation of Labor in California, who has just arrived in this city on the liner Siberia, says the San Francisco correspondent of the Detroit News. One night last June Smith dropped to sleep in a railway car on the "owl train" en route from Los Angeles to San Francisco. The next morning, as he thought, he awoke in a strange room. Rubbing his eyes, he gazed about him. It was a sordid room, unlike any he was accustomed to inhabit. He arose and lifted the curtain. The country he looked on was unlike anything he had seen in California. Descending the stairs he found himself among people as unfamiliar as his surroundings. They talked English, but with a foreign accent. "Where am I?" asked Smith, ad dressing one of the men. It is a lamentable fact—but one not wholly devoid of humorous possibility—that spotless rectitude, through some wanton trick or irresponsible chance, sometimes finds itself sailing under false colors. There is an elderly gentleman, professor in a Western university, who is a paragon of all virtues, great and small. Even in such matter as diet rigid abstinenceness is observed by him. His achievements in his line of work, excellent in themselves, are the more noteworthy by having been accomplished notwithstanding his delicate eyesight. To his intimates it is also well known that the professor, in earlier years, displayed remarkable will power in overcoming a defect of speech, which recurs now only in moments of extreme perturbation. The excellent professor was returning home at early dawn one day, soon after college opened, from the bedside of a sick friend. As he proceeded hast- "I have heard of some queer damage suit, but the mess I have become involved in quite puts it over anything I have ever heard or read of," said the man who always has some troubles to relate, according to the New York Press. "It started this way: We got a nursemaid here in the city who contracted measles soon after we hired her. My wife got frightened on account of our two children and immediately hustled them over into the country in Jersey. She settled down in a little place within safe commuting distance, picked out a decent boarding house and hired a nursemaid in the neighborhood. "Everything looked lovely for about three days and then one of the children went down with the measles. The nursemaid stood by her post and helped us out with the other youngster. Just as the first child was get- There is at least one journalist who makes $50,000 a year, and there are many who make $15,000 or $20,000. Hence innumerable young men and women would like to know how to enter into a profession so successful. A young man just back from London asked W. T. Stead, a most successful newspaper man, how to become a journalist. Mr. Stead answered thoughtfully. "There is only one way to enter journalism, and that is to do work that is wanted just when it is wanted. "You think you have a gift for writing. Well, you may have, but it does not follow that you have the gift for making people pay you for writing, which is another gift, altogether, and The lassie who sang us such tender ro- mances. Wail fair as the foam of the grey surg- ing sea. As puffed the billow that crouches and dances. As bilthe as the lark when caroling free. The nymph of the grove was as sweet as a swan. She poured forth her soul in a jubilant song. As chaste as Diana she uttered her warning. In fairyland echoes that rippled along. And who would be deaf to the songs of the siren. The only who sang us this exquisite strain. She sang with the fire and the fervor of Byron. Her message caressed us like tinkling or tears. She sang of the past and its grey crumbling glories. Her charlion chorus still rings in our ears. Of the stanch chevalier and the lassie in stories— And the tales and the legends of chivalrous years. The bugle is pealing out chivalric stories. Of stern ancient battles, grim, dauntless forays. Of the mighty fearsome quest of stout cavalier glories. romances. Inspired like Cecilia, who caroled of On the crest of the mountain the sun shine still dances. Registry Division. Chicago Postoffice. "Where are you?" reiterated the stranger. "Well you must have been among good company last night. You're in New South Wales, of course. Whe's did you expect to be?" "What month is this?" was the next question Smith put. The company gazed at him in amazement. "You look sane enough," was the reply, "but you ask idiotic questions. This is December. Would you like to have it altered?" Half a year had elapsed since Smith closed his eyes in the California train. In that time he had crossed half the globe. When he told his story his audience was convinced of his insanity. When he asked them for money to travel to the coast, he got laughter for his pains. So he trumped to Sydney. In the capital he looked up the labor council and narrated his experience to union men. They investigated and found he was what he represented himself to be. They arranged for his return to America, securing a passage for him on the Siberia. The first letter Smith received from his home at Los Angeles contained news of the death of his wife. ily across the campus, his thoughts busy with his friend, he stumbled; although he managed to recover himself, his spectacles became detached and fell. Quite helpless without these aids to vision, he got down on hands and knees and began to feel carefully in the grass. While the search went on there approached a young man, a freshman not yet acquainted with all the faculty. To him the disturbed professor appealed for aid. "Young man," he said nervously, "will you have the k'kindness to help me locate my g-glasses?" The youth gazed indignantly down at the scandalizing spectacle of a red-faced, elderly party violently pawning at the earth. "It appears to me, my elderly friend," he said severely, "that you've already located about all the glasses you need!" ting well the other was stricken. Then the nursemaid caught the malady and had to go home. She was sick for about two weeks. The other day her mother came to the boarding house and demanded damages because her daughter had caught the measles from our children. She thought a month's wages and payment of the doctor's bill would be about right and threatens to sue me if I don't come up with the cash. "I came to town to stay for a while just as this demand was made, and here is a letter from my wife saying that our landlady wants us to pay damages for the loss of her only other boarder, who left because she was afraid she would catch measles from our children. I've heard a lot about 'Jersey justice,' but if it puts that sort of notions in persons' heads you can excuse me from future contact with it." one which has often been very much lacking in some of those who had the greatest gift for the other kind of thing. "Editors are only too glad to take any copy they can get that will help them to sell their papers." "What kind of article should the beginner try?" asked the young man. "He should try the kind of article which is most likely to be accepted." "Dut how can he find out what subject the editor likes." "The editor will think to-day on the same lines as he thought yesterday, and what he thought yesterday you have spread out before you in this morning's paper."

MORE EVIDENCE STEVE ADAMS CONFESSES INNER CIRCLE CRIMES CORROBORATING ORCHARD Written and Signed Confession Gives Details of Many Murders—Tells Secret Workings of the Western Federation. Boise, Idaho.—The Statesman prints the following: "The Statesman is authorized to announce that Steve Adams, arrested at Haines, Oregon, on February 20th, in connection with the Steunenberg assassination, has made a full and sweeping confession. "This second confession is far more important than that made by Harry Orchard. This is the statement made by James McParland, the Pinkerton detective last evening, in the presence of Governor Gooding and J. H. Hawley, who is in charge of the prosecution. "Mr. McParland added that Adams' confession fully and exactly corroborated that made by Orchard at every point touched on by both. "Moreover, McParland continued, Adams knows far more of the workings of the 'inner circle' than Orchard did, and was able to give a mass of detailed information that Orchard's confession did not cover. The confession of Adams, he said, corroborated that given by Orchard on every substantial point connected with the assassination of Governor Steuenenberg. Adams, however, was not at Caldwell at the time of the assassination, nor was Orchard at the time of the unsuccessful effort in November. The man who assisted Orchard on the latter occasion, as set forth in Orchard's confession, was Jack Simpkins. "Still another statement made by the detection was that the Adams confession gave the details of a large number of murders that were not referred to in any manner by Orchard. It was further stated that the confession had been reduced to writing, signed and acknowledged. It was a voluminous document, covering a greater field and in more detail than was made by Orchard. The further statement was made that Adams had made this confession without being promised anything. When talked with about the matter he simply made a clean breast of all he knew of this case and of the secret workings of the Western Federation. "It was announced by the governor, Mr. Hawley and Mr. McParland that, while they thought these facts should be made public, there would be no further information given out or hinted at respecting this confession." Fishing Regulation Denver.—The News publishes the following: "Will the public be allowed to fish in all parts of all streams and lakes where these fish are placed? "No fish will be placed in any stream or lake where the public is not allowed to fish free." Hereafter all applicants for fish from the state hatcheries will find attached to the blank applications the above question and dictum from State Game and Fish Commissioner J. M. Woodard. The question will be placed in the body of the application, while just above the blank line left for the signature of the applicant will be found the positive statement of the commissioner that the granting of the application is conditioned upon the right being given to the public to share in the benefit. The new form of application went into effect Tuesday, immediately after the State Supreme Court reaffirmed its decision in the Gunnison fish case. This decision holds the law relating to trespass superior to the constitutional grant the people have to free access to the streams of the state. It was largely through the efforts of Commissioner Woodard that the state made its plea to intervene after the court announced its first decision in the case. The plea was allowed and a rehearing granted, but the court Monday announced another opinion, in which it adhered to its former decision. Justices Bailey and Steele filed a dissenting opinion, in which they stated that the court by a judicial act had confiscated nearly $500,000 of the people's money and seriously affected the state's agricultural interests, merely that corporations, clubmen and wealthy sportsmen might enjoy exclusive rights to the streams. Fishing Fleet Destroyed. Thondhjem, Norway.—A fishing fleet, consisting of 300 boats carrying 2,000 men and operating off Trondhjem, was caught in a terrific storm Friday and it is feared the greater portion of it was wrecked, as many boats are reported to have been seen floating keel upward. Thus far seventy-nine of the boats with 550 men have been reported safe at Flatanger, Koksvik and the Gjaesslinger islands, and possibly others have reached shelter at some of the thousands of islands dotting the coast. Steamers are cruising in the hope of picking up survivors. Uintah Reservation Claims. Washington.—The secretary of the interior will grant a hearing April 17th to representatives of numerous mineral locators who claim to have been unjustly treated by the Raven Mining Company on the Uintah Indian reservation. Ex-Representative Shafroth of Colorado will appear on behalf of half a dozen such parties and other attorneys will be heard at the same time. A Smokeless Pittsburg. Pittsburg, Pa.-C. M. Schwab is at the head of a corporation that proposes to make Pittsburg a smokeless city. Although conditions of a decade ago have been greatly alleviated by the burning of gas, Pittsburg still deserves the appellation of "Smokeville." Schwab's corporation proposes to burn the coal at the mines and to transmit both heat and power. SUGAR BEET VICTORY Phillipine Tariff Bill Killed by Senate Committee. Washington.—By a vote of eight to five Friday the Senate committee on the Phillipines defeated the Payne bill, which had passed the House by a vote of 258 to 71. The action of the committee had been foreshadowed for nearly a week, although the exact vote had not been known. The senators voting for the bill were: Lodge, Beveridge, Long, Carmack and McCreary. The negative votes were: Hale, Burrows, Dick, Nixon, Brandegee, Culberson, Dubois, Stone. After this decisive action had been taken, Mr. McCreary moved that the bill be reported to the Senate adversely, in order to give the Senate a chance to consider it. Mr. Brandegee moved to table the motion and this was carried by a vote of 7 to 6. Mr. Nixon voting with the minority on this proposition. This action effectually disposes of the measure, unless the chairman should appeal to the Senate by resolution. After Brandegee's proposal that the bill should be tabled, Mr. Lodge, the chairman, addressed the committee. He said the course proposed was unusual and that there could be no good purpose accomplished in thus preventing the Senate from reviewing the action of the committee if it desired. The opponents of the bill made no reply. After the bill had been effectually disposed of, Mr. McCreary moved to report his bill, which provided for free trade with the Philippines immediately. This motion was lost, only four senators voting in the affirmative. They were McCreary, Culberson, Carmack and stone. The Payne bill provided for the reduction of duty on sugar, tobacco and rice imported from the Philippines, to thirty-two per cent. of the Dingley schedules, and for absolute free trade after three years. RIGHT OF WAY SUIT. Progress of Saratoga & Encampment Railroad. Cheyenne, Wyo.—The fight between the Union Pacific and the Saratoga & Encampment railway companies over a right of way for the latter over the railroad grant lands of the former from Walcott south toward Saratoga, which has been brewing for some time, is now on in dead earnest. On Wednesday the Saratoga & Encampment company filed suit at Rawlins to compel the Union Pacific to permit the former corporation to lay a line of standard railway from the southern edge of the Union Pacific lands to Walcott. Attorneys for the Saratoga & Encampment say they have for months attempted to compromise raatters with the overland route, but that the latter would not accept any of their propositions. They are now prepared to fight it out in the courts, and are sanguine as to the outcome. Graders for the Saratoga & Encampment, which is reported to be a part of the Denver, Yellowstone & Pacific, are now at work between Saratoga and Walcott throwing up the grade as fast as the work can be done. The company hopes to have the line ready for trains not later than May 1st. The present suit with the Union Pacific may cause a further delay, however, but so sure are the S, & E. officials over the outcome of the suit that they are already making preparations to handle business from Saratoga on May 1st. King Edward's Holiday Trip. London.—The Duke of Lancaster, as King Edward will be known for two months, left Friday evening for a holiday in Paris and Biarritz and a subsequent cruise in the Mediterranean. The King, who is attended only by General Sir Stanley Clarke and Hon. Sidney Greville, will stay at the British embassy in Paris until Tuesday, and during his visit to the French capital will see President Fallieres, whom he has not yet met. From Paris the King will go to Bairritz, France, and will stay there until the end of March, afterward joining the royal yacht in the Mediterranean, where it is said he will meet Emperor William. During his stay at Bairritz, King Edward will see King Alfonso and discuss the details of the latter's marriage with Princess Ena of Battenburg. Royal Gorge Elec'rle Line. Denver.—A Republican special from Canon City says: Engineers and surveyors under City Engineer Witton began work Saturday on the proposed permanent route of the electric street car line between Canon City and the top of the Royal Gorge. F. S. Granger, who has the general management of the enterprise, states that about two weeks will be consumed in making surveys and doing other preliminary work and actual construction will begin about March 15th. The work will be pushed and the line completed by July 1st. Ties are coming in and being treated with a wood preservative. Next week the directors will choose a corporate name for the road. Death of General Schofield. St. Augustine, Fla.—Lieut. Gen. John M. Schofield, U. S. A., retired, former head of the army, died here Sunday night. He was attacked Sunday morning with cerebral hemorrhage. His wife and daughter were with him. General Schofield was secretary of war during 1863-69, and his career was marked by a continuous service in the army from the time he entered West Point in 1849 until he retired September 29, 1895, with the rank of lieutenant general, the highest military honor then permitted by law of Congress. His command of the army extended from 1888 to 1895. VINE ORNIA CALIFORNIA ONLY $25.00. Daily February 15th to April 7th from Denver, Colorado Springs or Pueblo.

DAZED WITH PAIN. The Sufferings of a Citizen of Olympia, Wash. L. S. Gorham, of 516 East 4th St., Olympia, Wash., says: "Six years ago I got wet and took cold, and was soon flat in bed, suffering tortures with my back. Every movement caused an agonizing pain, and the persistency of it exhausted me, so that for a time I was dazed and stupid. On the advice of a friend I began using Doan's Kidney Pills, and soon noticed a change tortures with my back. Every movement caused an agonizing pain, and the persistence of it exhausted me, so that for a time I was dazed and stupid. On the advice of a friend I began using Doan's Kidney Pills, and soon noticed a change for the better. The kidney secretions had been disordered and irregular, and contained a heavy sediment, but in a week's time the urine was clear and natural again and the passages regular. Gradually the aching and soreness left my back and then the lameness. I used six boxes to make sure of a cure, and the trouble has never returned." Sold by all dealers. 50 cents a box.

"About four years ago I was afflicted with black splotches all over my face and a few covering my body, which produced a severe itching irritation, and which caused me a great deal of annoyance and suffering, to such an extent that I was forced to call in two of the leading physicians of my town. After a thorough examination of the dreaded complaint they announced it to be skin eczema in its worst form. They treated me for the same for the length of one year, but the treatment did me no good. Finally my husband purchased a set of the Cuticura Remedies, and after using the contents of the first bottle of Cuticura Resolvent in connection with the Cuticura Soap and Ointment, the breaking out entirely stopped. I continued the use of the Cuticura Remedies for six months, and after that every splotch was entirely gone and the affected parts were left as clear as ever. The Cuticura Remedies not only cured me of that dreadful disease, eczema, but other complicated troubles as well. Lizzie B. Sledge, 540 Jones Ave., Selma, Ala. Oct. 28, 1905." Calf Will Prove Costly. An interesting suit has just been decided in the District Court at Buffalo, Wyoming, and will be taken to the State Supreme Court. The suit involved the ownership of a $10 calf. Several witnesses identified the calf as belonging to the plaintiff on the one hand, and the instinct of the cow and calf were put in evidence as proving motherhood on the other. Expert cowmen were called in to testify, and they swore that on the range the fact that a calf sucked a particular cow and that the cow permitted it was taken as conclusive evidence of parentage. The case promises to go through all of the courts of the land. Something like $500 has already been spent by the litigants. Supposed Pauper was Rich. William S. Cook, the oldest initiated Odd Fellow in California, died recently, apparently in great poverty and his lodge buried him. He was even in arrears for several months' rent for a shabby room where he had lodged for thirty years. The public administrator's search of safe deposit vaults, however, revealed that Cook was a miser, who left more than $100,000 in bonds and other securities. His only relative is a brother in Virginia. Ferrets Carry Wires.

How frequently does a head line similar to the above greet us in the newspapers. The rush, push and strenuousness of the American people has a strong tendency to lead up to valvular and other affections of the heart, attended by irrepulsive palpitation, dizzying smothered sensations and other distressing symptoms. Three of the prominent ingredients of which Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery is made are recommended by some of the leading writers on *Materia Medical* and by some of the leading authors on *Seal root*, for instance, is said by the UNITED STATES DISPENSATORY, a standard authority, "to impart tone and increased power to the heart's action." Numerous other leading authorities represent Golden Seal as an unsurpassed tonic for the muscular system in general, and as a powerful tonic for the posed of muscular tissue, it naturally follows that it must be greatly strengthened by this superb, general tonic. But probably the most important ingredient of "Golden Medical Discovery," so far as its marvelous cures of valvular and congenital heart diseases are concerned, is Sturgeon root, or *Colleen* Prof. Wm. Paine, author of *Paine's Epitomy of Medicine*, says of it: "I, not long since, had a patient who was so much oppressed with valvular disease of the heart that his friends were obliged to take him to the hospital, and recovered under the influence of Collinsonin (medicinal principle extracted from Stone root), and is now attending to his business, physician, and medical student. For the remission of so disabling and so dangerous a malady. With them it was all guess-work, and it fearfully warned the afflicted that death was near at hand. Collinsonin unquestionably affords relief in such cases, and in most instances effects a cure." Stone root is also recommended by Drs. Hale and Ellingwood, of Chicago, for valvular and other diseases of the heart, and the tonic of direct and permanent influence. "Golden Medical Discovery," not only cures serious heart affections, but is a most efficient general tonic and invigorator, strengthening the stomach, invigorating the liver, regulating the bowels and curing catarrha' affections in all parts of the system. Dr. Pierce's Pellets cure Stinsonin. GROWTH OF INDUSTRY. Western States Show Remarkable Progress. A report prepared by the Census Bureau for the use of the congressional committee on manufactories discloses that in the percentage of increase in number of industries and value of products manufactured five of the far western states leads the list. In Oklahoma in the last five years capital invested in manufacturing increased 351 per cent., value of the production, 200 per cent.; number of establishments, 107 per cent. and number of employees, 141 per cent. Indian Territory ranks on a par with Oklahoma with an increase of 200 per cent. in the value of manufactured materials, 215 per cent. increase in capital invested and an increase of 160 per cent. in the number of establishments. Nevada, Idaho and Utah rank next. There was a decrease in number of manufacturing establishments despite an increase in output and capital invested in a majority of the states, due, it is stated, to the consolidation of small enterprises. The increase of production and capital invested in all the states runs from twenty to two hundred per cent. in the five years. Prepared for Arctic Research Captain Mikkelsen, who is to make a tour of the northern part of this continent, is about ready to leave for the West, says a New York dispatch. His sledges and other paraphernalia have been arriving from England. He will buy his ship at San Francisco upon his arrival there. A few days after his arrival here, Captain Mikkelsen laid his plans before the American Geographical Society, with a statement of the unexpected situation in which he was placed.

Experience of a Minister Who Tried to Think That of Coffee. "A descendant of the Danes, a nation of coffee drinkers, I used coffee freely till I was 20 years old," writes a clergyman from Iowa. "At that time I was a student at a Biblical Institute, and suddenly became aware of the fact that my nerves had become demoralized, my brain dull and sluggish and that insomnia was fastening its hold upon me. "I was loath to believe that these things came from the coffee I was drinking, but at last was forced to that conclusion, and quit it." "I was so accustomed to a hot table beverage and felt the need of it so much, that after abstaining from coffee for a time and recovering my health, I went back to it. I did this several times, but always with disastrous results. I had about made up my mind that coffee was a necessary evil. "About this time a friend told me that I would find Postum Food Coffee very fine and in many respects away ahead of coffee. So I bought some and, making it very carefully according to the directions, we were delighted to find that he had not exaggerated in the least. From that day to this we have liked it better than the old kind of coffee or anything else in the way of a table drink. "It's use gave me, in a very short time, an increase in strength, clearness of brain and steadiness of nerves; and sleep, restful and restoring, carne back to me. "I am thankful that we heard of Postum and shall be glad to testify at any time to the good it has done me." Name given by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich. There's a reason.

One notices that the spring styles are coming bravely to the front, that shoot, jaunty little coats are taking the place of the long loose or tight-fitting outer garment and that hats in straw malines, chenille or lace braids are beginning to replace the satin and beaver shapes which have been decking the windows and the vomen. One pretty and springlike looking hat was in a modified edition of one of the turned-up hats of the winter modes. The side brim rolled rather sharply, the crown was rather round and high, but the lines were all softened by the little quillings of black maline net which completely covered the entire hat. The trimming consisted of a wreath of small pink roses set close together and without foliage. The under part of the brim had a bande of pale blue tulle with rosettes of ribbon to match. Tailored Walking Suit. A ladies' tailored walking suit of dark blue cheviot is finished in strictly tailor fashion, with machine stitching and silk crochet buttons. The jacket is tight fitting, closes at center-front and has a mannish collar and turned-back revers. The skirt is a nine-gore model with extension plaits at each seam and an under-folded plait at back. Machine stitching and buttons are used to carry out the coat design. For this entire costume in medium size eight and a half yards of forty-six-inch material will be required. Serge, panne or broadcloth are desirable materials to be used in the development of this suit. New Empire Gown. Empire gown of mousseline de sole with lace. The bodice is drawn in to the figure by braids of black velvet ribbon. Curried Rice. A cheap and appetizing dish for luncheon is curried rice—an excellent substitute for a meat curry. To make it, wash, thoroughly well, about 1 pound Carolina rice and parboil it; mix a dessert-spoonful of curry paste with three-quarters of a pint of good, brown gravy (using only a little of the gravy at first, and gradually adding more), and boil them together, then add the rice and let the curry simmer at the side of the fire until the rice is quite cooked. Pile it in a dish when ready, and serve it very hot, the gravy of the curry smothering the rice. The juice of half a lemon squeezed into the gravy is considered by some an improvement, while others prefer the addition of a sprinkling of celery salt. Blouses for Children. Small girls wear the guimpe frock with gathers at the top, a band of insertion or rows of smocking being added if a less simple style is desired. For materials the chambrays, dimities, ginghams, and in truth all such wash fabrics as have been used from time immemorial. The blouse suit is also worn by little girls, although the short pleated skirt and blouse waist are also fashionable, with the narrow leather belt in light colors, white or black patent leather.—Harper's Bazar. Plaid Dimities Much Used. Plaid dimities are to the fore for shirt waists and dresses and every sort of thing. There is a remarkable variety in them, when you realize that the largest plaid is something less than two inches square. Between that size and the tiniest of all (which is made of cords as closely set as possible) are plaids of every width, some made by single cords crossing others of a dozen cords that form a band. And the plain spaces seem sheerer than ever by contrast. Wings and Aigrettes Used. Regardless of the Audubon society there are more wings and aigrettes employed this season than in many previous seasons put together. At one time a very small aigrette of a few inches was considered large enough. Now some of them are from twelve to ten inches long. The main trra- WALKING COSTUMES FROM PARIS WALKING COSTUMES FROM PARIS. ming on some of the most stylish hats is one huge white aigrette. Aigrettes are always white in their natural state, but this season they are dyeed in all colors; any are dyed in the shaded effects. And it is needless to say that wings are the favored trimming. In every fashionable shop you will see that two-thirds of the hats are trimmed with bird wings. Bird wings, in combination with flowers and with velvet ribbons, are used, and sometimes wings are the only trimming employed. A woman can afford wings when she cannot afford ostrich feathers, and a wing does duty where an ostrich tip will not—on a traveling hat or a rainy day toque, for instance—Brooklyn Eagle. WHILE THE TEA DREWS WHILE THE TEA DREWS Nearly all walking suits have the skirts plaited in one way or another. Very high, straight turnover collars of linen are worn with the tailor-made dress. Some of the new bodices have long tails reaching nearly to the bottom of the skirt. One of those Japanese tan-and-blue purses is very "fit" to carry with a blue suit. The brilliantly colored little hats of the winter are like jewels set atop of the head. For a short dancing frock there is no model so pretty as an accordion-plaited skirt. Gauze with a wide satin stripe, in white or colors, is a new nicety for evening frocks. Princess Style Improved In the lighter, more dressy linen gowns, Princess styles are exquisite, those lovely little lingerie gowns making the plainest woman look her best. For, unlike the severe Princess gown—the type that came out first—unlike any of the others of heavier materials—those of mull or of handkerchief linen and such soft delicate stuffs are so full and betrimmed and beruffed and generally fascinating that every hint of severity of line is lost. For that matter, there has been almost a revolution in the way of making Princess gowns. Instead of only two or three types of figure looking well in them, dressmakers and dress artists have juggled with the style—giving in an inch here, to take an ell there—until almost any woman can be made to look well in at least one style. Blouses of Linen. All sorts and classes of shirt waists and blouses are made of handkerchief linen, even those very plain ones, made high on the left side, and prim yokes. Yet, while handkerchief linen makes nine out of ten shirt waists, that tenth one is given an odd little style by the very weight of its weave. And handkerchief linen does crush terribly under a coat, so that, for every day, those of heavier linen are better. In Light Broadcloth. Frocks and wraps of white or pale lined broadcloth which are so much in demand this season and so numerous among the "ready to wear" models, are excellent investments if offered at prices really low, for unless they have some perishable trimming they will stand innumerable cleanings and keep their shape and modishness. WALKING COSTU The skirt of the first costume is of green velvet with breadths cut under at the bottom and ornamented with buttons. The new short jacket is of green cloth to match, trimmed with silk braid of the same shade. The collar is of shrimp pink velvet bordered with a plaiting of the braid, loops of which fastened with buttons ornament the front of the jacket. The blouse is of the striped velvet like the skirt, cut in scallops in front and fastened with buttons. The girdle is of tafeta and the chemisette is of lirio. One dress is pale-blue broadcloth, with trimming on skirt and bodice of light blue and silver braid, put on in design. The little vest in front of bodice is white kid and the plaited girdle chiff font taffeta, exactly matching the cloth. There is a pretty buckle of rhinestones where the revers meet at waist line and a frill of fine white lace finishes the elbow sleeves. Blue gloves and a cloth-of-silver hat with blue plumes and aigrettes accompany the costume. Checks for Spring Wear Dainty little checked suits are coming to the fore for spring and very neat they look after the plain colors of winter. The checks are for the most part in blue and white and in black and white, and the trimming for them is braid, though one sees many of these suits trimmed with taffeta bands. Judging by a glance ahead at the importations there will be many checked suits trimmed with very narrow red satin bands and with pipings and with tiny little quillings and edgings to form a contrast to the checked goods. Gray Broadcloth Suit. Street suit of gray satin-faced broadcloth, trimmed in tailor fashion, with machine stitching and small silk buttons. The jacket is close-fitting, has $ g 1 novel shaped rolling collar and a fly closing at the center front. The skirt is a fifteen-gored model of the umbrella design in the regulation round length. For this entire costume in the medium silipe, twelve yards of forty-two-inch or ten yards of fifty-inch material will be required. Cheviot, novelly suiting or any of the winter materials are very desirable in the development of this suit. Popular Skirt Models. Circular, gored and plaited skirts—it seems almost absurd to again enumerate these three models that for so long a time have been so popular. There are changes in width of plaites, in the number of gores, in the shape of the circular skirt and in the style of trimming, but the so to speak integral parts are just the same season after season. MES FROM PARIS. The other costume is of plaid wool. The short skirt is finished with a box-plaired flounce headed by fancy stitched bands of the material. The corsage is trimmed with bretelles of black silk braid attached by gold buckles. A band of green taffeta trimmed with soutache borders the fronts, which cross slightly at the bottom. The waistcoat is of champagne colored cloth; the chemisette is of linen with stock of black silk. The girdle is of green taffeta headed by black velvet, which is fastened in front with a buckle.

Sir Edward Monson, the veteran English diplomat, who is now visiting America, served under Lord Lyons on Washington under Lincoln's administration, and has many interesting stories of Lincoln to relate. "A distinguished old woman," he said the other day, "once called on Lincoln and railed and stormed over some fancied wrong that she had suffered at the government's hands. "Mr. Lincoln listened to her politely, he talked to her in the kindly was he talked to everyone, and then, after she was gone, he turned to me and said: "Little Edith listened the other day that a neighbor had shot his dog because it had grown old and cross. She studied the matter out awhile and then she looked up in her mother's face and said: "Mamma, when do you think papa will shoot Aunt Martha?" The following item appeared in the Bacon Ridge Banner: "One night last June the editor heard someone prowling about in his chicken coop. Not having any shot handy he loaded the gun with quinine pills and blazed away. The intruder was peppered, but managed to crawl away. As there is only one man in the village who has not had the ague this season we have our suspicions." Learning One's Faults. A wise old man was in the habit of saying that one of the chief purposes of matrimony was that thus a man and a woman gain a counselor whose duty and privilege it is to inform and admonish concerning personal failings. Everybody should cherish some confidential friend to whom one can go and say, "Tell me of my faults," and then take the bitter dose manfully, and try to profit by it—Exchange. --- 1918 Lawrence Street.

Some time ago a Boston man named Curley was convicted of conspiracy against the United States, he having impersonated another man at a civil service examination. Yesterday Curley was elected to the Board of Aldermen by a handsome majority, after conducting a "vigorous campaign" from his prison cell. Still, perhaps it doesn't make much difference whether we elect our aldermen first and then send them to prison or send them to prison first and then elect them. Speaking of handsome majorities recalls a story that recently came to me from Colorado, where the women vote. A certain local candidate at the November elections was successful by a majority of one vote. The next evening his friends gave him a reception and he made a speech in which he inadvertently spoke of his "handsome majority." A little later one of his women friends called his attention to this slip of the tongue. "Ah, but, my dear," said he, with his politest bow, "you must remember that that one vote was yours." There's the real politician for you—Brooklyn Eagle. Found Rare Art Treasures. Another valuable addition to Italy's treasures in medieval works of art has just been brought to light. In the old church of Cireggio, near Omegna, some internal repairs and structural cleaning are being carried out. Among the rest a thick coating of whitewash has been removed. Fortunately, with a view to possible discoveries underneath, this was done with care, with the result that there have been found six beautiful frescoes of the best period of Italian art. They are all by the eminent painter Grandenzio Ferrari. The color is said to be splendid. —London Globe.

Paris offers a strange contrast to London (and to most American cities) in the matter of street lighting. London is woefully somber at night, except at certain points where concert halls and "gin mills" are numerous, whereas Paris is brilliantly lighted everywhere. Nothing so astonishes the American visitor as the long lines of brilliant gas lamps (incandesant burners, all of which function perfectly) reaching down each and every street to sparkling perspectives of diamond strings. Do you feel disposed to shrug your shoulders and cry out that it is garish and unrestful? Please don't. It is a grand success and a joy forever. If you doubt it, come over here and see for yourselves. I have carefully observed the placement of lampposts and find that in some places there is one every twenty feet; in less favored localities, one every forty or fifty feet, while the little streets have them at intervals of about 200 feet. In the case of the poor little streets the lighting is, at the worst, admirable not to magnificent. What does all this cost? It costs too much, from our enlightened (or unlighted) point of view. We are content to grope about in the dark streets. The Parisian abhors darkness (as he should) and is willing to pay for light, even though he may pay pretty dearly for it. Of High Grade. Bishop Vincent was praising at Chautauqua the Chautauquan architecture. "Beautiful buildings," he said, "are a perennial delight and the architects who give us them should be more highly honored and rewarded than they are. "Whenever I look at our superb buildings here I think of what their architect once said to me. He said that a bishop employed one of his brothers in the designing and erection of a fine house. When the house was completed the bishop was well pleased with it, but when the architect's bill was presented to him he was not so well pleased. "My good brother architect, I said, 'don't you know that your prices are too high. The yearly salaries of many of my curates don't equal the amount of this bill of yours.' z "Very likely not,' the architect replied, 'but I am not a curate but a bishop among architects."
