Bishop C. E. Woodcock Makes Plain in one of His Recen Sermons the Evils of Worrying. Says no Excuse for Worrying. VOL. XII. Sin of Bishop C. E. Woodcock Make Sermons the Evils of Excuse for Bishop C. E. Woodcock of Kentucky, made the following utterances in a sermon at Detroit, recently: I'd just as lief live with a man who drinks as with a man who worries. The sin of worry—some people call it a virtue—is the sin of a wasted life. Carelessness, instead of being meritorious, is downright laziness, good-for-nothing. This teaching of the Bible is meant simply to save us from worry. Don't fret your life out about what may happen tomorrow. The only thing any great man has ever done has been to live for an hour at a time. It is the very quaintessence of foolishness to worry about something that may possibly take place. It is unintelligent and foolish to worry about tomorrow. There is no sin in a temptation to worry. It is like other temptations; but worry itself is just as much a vice as any other sin. You may call it by another name, but in reality it is the same thing. Worrying or not worrying is a matter of self control. Unfortunately some people are never so happy as when they are miserable or are making someone else miserable. The fact that a person is an invalid does not excuse worrying a particle. It becomes a disease itself, and, when chronic, it gets past help, just as paralysis does. You see a drunkard in the gutter, and you say what a coarse, vulgar sinner; but the judgement comes not in the way in which a life is wasted, but in the fact that it is wasted. There is no more vulgarity in drink, profanity or obscenity than in worry. The sins are not a bit different in degree or awfulness. You must know that worry is filling our insane asylums. It is dotting our country with sanitoria for those broken down for one senseless cause, the uncontrolled dissapation of worry. There are men in these sanitoria who are just as responsible for their wasted years as are the men at the Keely cure or behind the bars.

Worry is the sin of a living suicide; it is the Christian's denial of God. Arizona Letter. PHOENIX, ARIZ., MARCH 9, '06. TO COLORADO STATESMAN. DENVER, COLO. We are here under the Olive and Palm. As we inquire into the activities of our people we find them engaged with the stern realities which go to make any people great. I may now venture to make several personal mention. Mrs. H. L. Bolton now operates a fine private'boarding house, she is an intelligent young widow, a graduate of Wilberforce, wide awake and progressive. She also owns the finest home of any among us. Her mother, Mrs. Rena Ridley is one of the staunch members of our church. They make a splendid team in their line of work hard to equal, cannot be excelled. The Enterprise, an afternoon paper here speaks in glowing terms of W. R. Baker a young man well known in Denver. He is a Pianist and composer of no mean ability. The Elks of Arizona gave an entertainment, March 9th and 10th. Mr. Baker arranged the music and composed specially for the occasion several pieces of great merit and rehearsed all the vocalists for the part they took in the concert. He is regarded here as one of the great musicians of the race. Born in Buffalo N. Y. some 32 years ago. He has not a robust constitution but we hope to see him live long to utilize his wonderful talent for the uplift of the race. We met Mrs. W. H. Smith of Wickenburg, Arizona, and was impressed by the graceful demeanor and evident business tact of the little active woman. I can see why she and husband have made and are making such maked success in Hostelry in the little town 64 miles from here. Its the same old story however and she is likely to break down under too severe application to business long and continued vigils still we must pay a price for business success, there is no excellence without great labor DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, MARCH 17, 1906. hence their $25000.00 business had to be won by hard licks again not all of our people here are tenderfoots Mrs. Charles V. Williams and mother, Mrs. Mary Green came to this place in June 1868 bought thither by whites. Mrs. Williams feels that she is "to the manor born" she has an interesting family of husband and 5 children. Perhaps the most interesting character here is "Grand-ma" Harriet Brown whose length of days reaches 107 years and yet she moves about with surprising ease like many who have seen no more than 80 years it is a benediction to hear her speak for Jesus. Mr. and Mrs. Vanentine are regarded as the prime movers in church circles both of them having been in the organization ever staunch and true they seem to be pillars in the house of God. They have two children, Miss Edna and Master Artnur. Mr. and Mrs. Valentine conduct a boarding house on a high plane. Hard work seems to be the rule along these lines with our people. Rev. Wagner and the writer were entertained at a collation at their pleasant home after services on the 8th inst. Mrs. Maud Watson also helped to enliven the joyous occasion Rev. Wagner hinted that he would not care if such occasions were linked closer together. We also had a delightful luncheon at the dining parlors of the "Bolton" a swell cuisine and splendidly appointed parlors conducted by Mrs. H. L. Bolton. She has spacious grounds filled with flowers and tropical plants, while rows of electric jets makes it a brilliant ideal place all fenced in completely, we enjoyed the courtesy and hospitality of the hostess. Brother Samuel Steele owns a home on 6 city lots and runs a hand laundry and is doing well. He is an earnest member of the A. M. E. church. We were entertained at dinner by his good wife last Tuesday together with sister Maxwell and Miss M. J. Richmond all enjoyed a splendid meal. Our baptist brother Rev. Burgess is working diligently to secure money to buy a church lot and is meeting with success. He and his good wife are well liked in the community. They hold services at present in Smith's hall a two story brick building. Brother Allen Smith who owns the hall is an old timer of Phoenix. Your scribe leaves tonight for Tuscon and regrets the necessity which compels him to leave the most hospitable home of the Pastor and Rev. W. E Ratcliffe and his amiable wife. J. W. SANDERS. Want Negro's Rights Denied. Hon. Hoke Smith in his address at Wrycross last week, advised his hearers to keep the Negro American down by denying them their constitutional rights, is unwise and dangerous, because it is impossible to perpetually keep them out of their God-given rigets. No people that have paid so dearly for their citizenship will ever submit to the galling fetters he recommends his hearers to bind upou them. If the speaker's recommendation is ever enacted into law, there will never be any rest among this oppressed nation until the last vestige of slavery is removed. Mr. Smith and his kind is doing his section more harm by his stirring up of bitterness among the masses than all other causes put together. Fate is against this would be destroyer of the Negro American. This suffering people should lay their case before the bar of heaven —in prayer, where their foreparents for 240 years laid their grievances. If congress and her state lawmakers will not hear their complaints, they will be heard and answered as was our foreparents heard and answered.—Independent (Savannah, Ga. RACE NEWS Gathered from Various Sources. Seven tenths of the graduates from Meharry Medical college are a success. They are taught medicine by men of their own race, who inspire them with such great energy that they cannot fail. Smith Martin, an aged Negro, died at the Stokes County Home, Norfolk, Va., a few days ago. His last words were a confession of a horrible crime. He told how he had killed a man several years ago, saying he cut his victim's heart out and burned it in the fire. H. T. Colloway, of New Orleans, has established a mail order tailoring business in Chicago, with offices for gentlemen and ladies, and is doing a large business in the South and Southwest, giving employment to 16. Afro American traveling men. He ships over 5,000 suits a year. Newport, R. I.—Thomas J. Emery in his $50,000 charitable gifts to the Cincinnati fresh air fund bequests $4,000 to the colored orphans of Vondale, and to the archbishop of Ohio in aid of any Catholic institution for the care of the aged and children, provided none are excluded on account of creed or colored, $5,000. Jackson, Miss., March 6.—Senator McClaurin, of Sharkey, wants to establish a difference in courts between murder and lynching and to make interesting changes in the laws governing these crimes. He has introduced a bill on the subject, the vital section of which, the punishment wholly within the discretion of the jury in a large majority of instances, be no punishment at all, or probably a small fine and brief imprisonment. In other words, such a bill would almost legalize lynching. Leavenworth, Kan., March 2.— Capt. William D.Matthews, one of the noted Negroes of the war period died here of pneumonia this evening, aged 80 years. Born a slave, Capt. Matthews came to Leavenworth in 1854 and ran a restaurant that was patronized by whites, especially abolitionist. He was instrumental in aiding many runaway slaves to pass from the South to Iowa, and was termed a conductor in the underground railway. Capt. Matthews was the head of the Negro Masons, of the United States. For the last fifteen years he devoted his time to traveling around looking after the work of the grand master of the order. Bob Butts and George Bridgewater, two white men living in New Pittsburg, Hocking county, pulled out their guns and made George Donovan, colored do a clog dance. Butts and Bridgewater, after empting their revolvers, began to jeer the colored man, when he turned and fired five shots at his annoyers. Butts was shot in the left lung, Bridgewater was shot through the bowels and stomach. Both men were brought to a hospital in Columbus, Ohio, where they died within an hour. Donovan had his preliminary trial at Logan and was bound over under $2,000 bond, which he could not furnish, and he was lodged in the county jail at Logan. Eugene Smith, the 6-year-oldson of a colored couple, George and Alice Smith, residing at 3129 Lambdin avenue, St. Louis, has been giving the school board a problem to solve. He has outgrown the kindergarten department, but because of his tender age he cannot be advanced. The law requires that those who enter the grades must be 7 or more years old. When application for advancement was made he was told that he must wait a year. He was given a special examination by the superintendent, who says he is a remarkable child, far in advance of his age in intelligence. Eugene is a native of Tennessee, his parents having moved to St. Louis from Nashville three years ago. After consultation it has been decided that he may remain in school until vacation, as, before the next session opens, he will have passed the required age for admission. NO. 25. Two Negro Expositions. James J. Manuel, recently appointed by Governor McDonald as commissioner from Colorado for the Fredrick Douglas Memorial exposition, has been informed by John G. Jones of Chicago, president of the exposition, that the project has been consolidated with the Negro Development and Exposition company of America, and that these united interests will make an exhibit of work and progress of the race at the exposition to be held in Jamestown, Va., next year commemorative of the landing of the Engliish at that place in 1607. The legislature of Virginia has made an appropriation of $200,.000,000 for this exposition. The Negroes of that state felt it would be a better opportunity for the presentation of an exhibit showing the advancement of their race than the holding of the Fredrick Douglas Memorial exposition, which was planned to take place in Washington, May I to July 6, 1906. They have enlisted the interest of their brethren throughout the country and all will work together to have a representative showing. The Virginia Negroes have petitioned the legislature to grant them a separate appropriation of $20,000. The Jamestown Exposition company has invited the Negro Development and Exposition company to make its exhibit upon its grounds and at the same time in states where there are a sufficient number of Negroes to warrant it, the legisture will be asked to make appropriations to aid in making a creditable display. The Jamestown exposition will be held the summer of 1907, beginning in June. Mr. Manuel will continue in the same position as commissioner from Colorado for the new exposition. He has under him a large committee working who will see that Colorado is properly represented.—News. Sherbet or Water Ice. A method of making a fine grained sherbet—one that will keep frozen as long as a cream—is as follows; Boil a quart of water and pint of sugar together for ten minutes, dissolve in it one teaspoonful of gelatin that has been soaked in cold water, then add sold water enough to cover, and strain the mixture into the can of a freezer. When thoroughly cold add about a pint of fruit juice, less of lemon or currant juice. When the mixture is frozen add to a gallon freezer of sherbet a meringue made from the stiffly beaten white of an egg and one tablespoonful of hot sugar syrup or powdered sugar. “Columbine” ZANG’S New Table Beer Ts a special Brow for Family use DENVER’S LEADING BRAND OF BOTTLED BEER ; Columbine Beer Is guaranteed absolutely pure Try a Sample Case and you will use no other TELEPHONE 1285 The Ph.

KEEP THE MONEY AT HOME President of Colorado Manufacturers' Association Urges Citizens to Support Home Institutions. "Few people realize that Colorado is becoming one of the great manufacturing states," said T. C. Scott, manager of the Colorado Manufacturers' Association, in Denver, the other day. "If people of Colorado did realize this it would be a great thing for the state. "Take the members of the Colorado Manufacturers' Association alone, for example. They represent a capital of $34,346,000 invested and expend $25,000,000 a year for material, support 13,000 people, and pay them annually in wages $9,612,000, and the value of the product last year was $53,000,000." "Coloradans can buy Colorado beef, bacon, butter, boots, brooms, buggies, brushes, beer, bank and bar fixtures, carriages, chemicals, canned goods, catsup, cheese, cigars, cider, crackers, candles, elevators, glassware, harness, honey, hams, machinery, overalls, paper boxes, saddles, stoves, shirts, shoes, soap. "The fact is there is practically nothing that is used in the home, the store, the shop, the mine, the farm, the ranch that is not made in Colorado, and every man should realize that a dollar spent for Colorado-made goods stays in Colorado, and when paid for foreign goods leaves Colorado. The Colorado Manufacturers' Association wants to get the people together on this subject. "What is required in Colorado more than anything else is an increased patronage of home products. Every housewife and every household should ask for and insist on being furnished with Colorado products or goods manufactured in Colorado. There is a certain amount of civic pride in every individual, but with a great many of the citizens of Colorado it has not been developed. I will venture to say that there are thousands of cases in Colorado to-day where the housewife is patronizing eastern industries by asking for and purchasing certain lines of goods. Perhaps she is using a soap manufactured in her native town, or in her native state, because her mother used the same class of goods in the old home back East; or it may never have occurred to this same housewife that she could get as good, if not better, articles manufactured right here in Colorado. If we can educate all such of our residents who are patronizing eastern-made goods to live in the present and future, instead of the past, and to look to the West for everything, our home banks would soon notice a remarkable result in the way of increased deposits. "Then we have another, and perhaps the largest class of all, the irdifferent class, those who take but little interest in the manner of developing the states' resources, not from the fact that they are not anxious to see Colorado prosperous, but for the reason that it has perhaps never dawned on them that it made any difference as to what class of goods they purchased, whether made in the New England states or in Colorado. If all the classes I have mentioned could be aroused to the fact that it is their duty to be loyal to Colorado in every respect, regardless of whether they are citizens of our state by nativity or adoption, and would demonstrate their loyalty by never failing to ask for Colorado-made goods when making purchases of various kinds, the result would be a landslide of prosperity for Colorado and her people. The untiring efforts that are being made by the various organizations of the state to boost the interests of their town, or of the state as a whole, to bring more people to Colorado to help develop her resources, etc., are all second in importance to this one feature of patronizing home industry. It is within the power of the people of Colorado to double the capacity of every manufacturing industry in the state within one year, and it will not cost them a farthing to do it, from a financial standpoint. Three little words cover the entire situation—PATRONIZE HOME INDUSTRY, buy Colorado-made goods; tell your wife, your brothers, your sisters, your employees, tell everybody to buy Colorado-made goods. "Did you ever stop to realize that every time you buy $10 worth of goods manufactured outside the state of Colorado you are sending $10 out of the state that never comes back?" Whereas, if you buy with this same $10 Colorado-made goods the entire amount remains in Colorado and you indirectly become a profit sharer. Could anything be more simple and yet more effective in the upbuilding of our state? If you double the manufacturing interests you help everybody, you help all classes, you help the farmer by increasing the value of his land, by creating a stronger market for his products, you help the laboring man, the skilled workman, employees of all kinds, the retail merchant, in fact, every resident of Colorado is bound to feel the beneficial results of making Colorado the greatest manufacturing state in the West." Fatal Shipwreck. Boston.—Suffering mental and physical, and numerous acts of heroism in saving life rarely equaled in the record of tragedies of the sea attended the loss of the steamer British King, which Sunday last, in a raging Atlantic storm, foundered about 250 miles south of Sable island and carried to death twenty-seven members of the crew. Thirteen men were rescued from the sinking vessels by the steamer Bostonian, and eleven by the steamer Mannheim. Five others who had been drawn down in the vortex into which the British King was engulfed, were picked up by the Bostonian. WHO SHE WAS And a True Story of How the Vegetable Compound Had Its Birth and How the "Panic of'73" Caused it to be Offered for Public Sale in Drug Stores. This remarkable woman, whose maiden name was Estes, was born in Lynn, Mass., February 9, 1819, coming from a good old Quaker family. For some years she taught school, and became known as a woman of an alert Yours for Health Lydia C. Parkham and investigating mind, an earnest seeker after knowledge, and above all, possessed of a wonderfully sympathetic nature. In 1843 she married Isaac Pinkham, a builder and real estate operator, and their early married life was marked by prosperity and happiness. They had four children, three sons and a daughter. In those good old fashioned days it was common for mothers to make their own home medicines from roots and herbs, nature's own remedies—calling in a physician only in specially urgent cases. By tradition and experience many of them gained a wonderful knowledge of the curative properties of the various roots and herbs. Mrs. Pinkham took a great interest in the study of roots and herbs, their characteristics and power over disease. She maintained that just as nature so bountifully provides in the harvest-fields and orchards vegetable foods of all kinds; so, if we but take the pains to find them, in the roots and herbs of the field there are remedies expressly designed to cure the various ills and weaknesses of the body, and it was her pleasure to search these out, and prepare simple and effective medicines for her own family and friends. Chief of these was a rare combination of the choiceest medicinal roots and herbs found best adapted for the cure of the ills and weaknesses peculiar to the female sex, and Lydia E. Pinkham's friends and neighbors learned that her compound relieved and cured and it became quite popular among them. All this so far was done freely, without money and without price, as a labor of love. But in 1873 the financial crisis struck Lynn. Its length and severity were too much for the large real estate interests of the Pinkham family, as this class of business suffered most from fearful depression, so when the Centennial year dawned it found their property swept away. Some other source of income had to be found. At this point Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound was made known to the world. The three sons and the daughter, with their mother, combined forces to Denver Directory STOVE REPAIRS of every known make of stove, furnace or range. Geo. A. Pullen, 1331 Lawrence. Denver. Phone 725.

They argued that the medicine which was so good for their woman friends and neighbors was equally good for the women of the whole world. The Pinkhams had no money, and little credit. Their first laboratory was the kitchen, where roots and herbs were steeped on the stove, gradually filling a gross of bottles. Then came the question of selling it, for always before they had given it away freely. They hired a job printer to run off some pamphlets setting forth the merits of the medicine, now called Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, and these were distributed by the Pinkham sons in Boston, New York, and Brooklyn. The wonderful curative properties of the medicine were, to a great extent, self-advertising, for whoever used it recommended it to others, and the demand gradually increased. In 1877, by combined efforts the family had saved enough money to commence newspaper advertising and from that time the growth and success of the enterprise were assured, until today Lydia E. Pinkham and her Vegetable Compound have become household words everywhere, and many tons of roots and herbs are used annually in its manufacture. Lydia E. Pinkham herself did not live to see the great success of this work. She passed to her reward years ago, but not till she had provided means for continuing her work as effectively as she could have done it herself. During her long and eventful experience she was ever methodical in her work and she was always careful to preserve a record of every case that came to her attention. The case of every sick woman who applied to her for advice—and there were thousands—received careful study, and the details, including symptoms, treatment and results were recorded for future reference, and to-day these records, together with hundreds of thousands made since, are available to sick women the world over, and represent a vast collaboration of information regarding the treatment of woman's ills, which for authenticity and accuracy can hardly be equaled in any library in the world. With Lydia E. Pinkham worked her daughter-in-law, the present Mrs. Pinkham. She was carefully instructed in all her hard-won knowledge, and for years she assisted her in her vast correspondence. To her hands naturally fell the direction of the work when its originator passed away. For nearly twenty-five years she has continued it, and nothing in the work shows when the first Lydia E. Pinkham dropped her pen, and the present Mrs. Pinkham, now the mother of a large family, took it up. With woman assistants, some as capable as herself, the present Mrs. Pinkham continues this great work, and probably from the office of no other person have so many women been advised how to regain health. Sick women, this advice is "Yours for Health" freely given if you only write to ask for it. Such is the history of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound; made from simple roots and herbs; the one great medicine for women's ailments, and the fitting monument to the noble woman whose name it bears.

There seems to be a revival and deeping of interest in the welfare, culture and development of the young people. All of this is prophetic of the substantial improvement of the youth of the race and progress on the material and spiritual side of their acquirement. Last week the committee having in charge the arrangement of the Second Young Peoples Christian and Educational Congress met in Washington, D.C. and set the date of the meeting July third to eighth. The plans of the committee puts the work on a gigantic scale and promises the attendance of ten thousand people. Another evidence of the interest being taken in behalf of young people is the purpose of Dr. Boyd the Sunday School publisher of Nashville, Tenn., to hold a great National Baptist Sunday School Congress sometime during the year with a view of quickening interest among the growing and intelligent Sunday school workers of the race. Both of these great conventions are in the interest of young people and show an increasing desire on behalf of the great leaders to see that the young people of our race shall have the inspiration and example as an object lesson set before them and these great conventions serve this end most admirably. PERSONAL HABITS AND MORALS. That personal habits and morals are closely related no one will deny but that they are one and the same thing no one will affirm. Personal habits may crystalize into character but character is an individual and not a public property. To be true a number of persons of similar character in a community may give the community the appearance of a certain type or class and thus cause the reputation or standing of the entire locality to be affected. Indeed this seems to be the case in Denver at the present time. If persons of uncertain character premoninate then the reputation of the whole community takes on a certain predominate then the reputation of the whole community takes on a certain flexibility but after all a sharp distinction ought to be made between the habits of a people which are purely personal and the habits which interfear with the rights of another. While every one would be glad to see the community lifted up in their personal tone yet no one feels like invoking the legislature to pass upon our private morals. The wise-acres of Battle Creek may be all right in what they allege against coffee drinking, but when people call coffee drinkers immoral and sinners they attack the morals of many who up to date have been considered among our noblest and best men and women. To be a crank is not quite the same thing as being moral, although some cranks labor under this delusion. What we need to discern is that right distinctions are necessary to differentiate those customs that offend good society and those that simply affect our selves and satisfies our own tastes. A CLEAN ELECTION AND AN HONEST BALLOT FOR EVERY VOTER. This is the slogan of the political reformer. It is the crying need today in all large cities of this country, Denver being no exception. New primary and election laws are necessary to give legality to elections and make it possible to convict illegal voters but what is needed more than any thing else is new life and clean motives within the inner circles of political precints. Not a class of men who contrive as to how far they can go and evade the letter of the law but how much they may assist in making the law doubly effective and secure. Elections will never occupy a plan higher than the level of public sentiment in regard to election methods. That political parties have a mission is self evident. That their mission is to serve or suppress some principle of vital importance to the happiness or well being of every citizen is also a truism. But is this true in regard to the political parties and the colored voters of Colorado? Heretofore the colored voters have had no voice in the councils of the political parties, no part in their caucuses and absolutely no hand in directing their policies but they have been compelled to remain wholly on the outside and take whatever consideration that is offered to them. A people that have no part in the councils of a party, be the party what it may, cannot long retain interest in the party. It is self evident that the political parties of Denver are approaching a crisis in their career and they will need all of the support possible in the coming campaign. The contest will be Republican versus Municiple Ownership. Where are the colored voters of this city, nearly ten thousand strong, to stand in this contest? Does the Republican party expect the Negro to line up with them in this election? If so, on what ground? Does the Gas, Street car Telephone and Water interests expect the Negro to help win their fight? If so, for what reason? The Negro has not been employed in their offices or business or buildings. We have had no personal or political consideration at their hands. Why then should we be delivered soul and body into their camp? It simply cannot be done unless there are some fair and equitable considerations entered into as a class or members of the body politic. There ought to be a man on the State Central Advisory committee and a colored member of the County Central committee in order to give these parties a right conception of the needs and feelings of thousands of colored voters, otherwise the party may expect deflection from the ranks. But the real reform in this matter ought to begin with the colored voters themselves. They should recognize their position and relation to the powers that be and make such demands as their strength warrants. Let them once become aroused to the sense of their duty and this matter will receive attention, as the party needs our support as bad as we need the party. RECEIVING A SET-BACK At the rate that members of the high finance fraternity are being transported to Canon City the impression may be understood that Denver is the wrong place to practice this new art. The transportation of Messrs Imboden and Hill this week to the penitentiary to join "Fidelity Johnson," already sojourning there, makes it evident that the people of the Queen City are not to be bumcoed out of their hard cash without some redress. Mr. Imboden may now exercise some of his genius on a rock pile clothed in stripes and learn that the people of the West are not such fools as he took them to be. His impudence and the air of superciliousness will have time to cool off after nine or ten years' acquaintance with iron bars and big turnkeys and prison food. Perhaps the prison chaplain may get his ear and show him that there are several lessons in honesty that he has not learned that it would do him good to give heed. At any rate the people of Colorado will feel a bit safer with him behind the bars in Canon City than running loose around the Brown Palace hotel with bell boys, messengers and servants at his command and a public of industrious citizens to play upon. The district attorney is to be congratulated on his success in removing these two gentlemen to a safe distance from the honest and industrious people of Denver. A great honor was conferred upon a colored man recently in Chicago. The man was Dr. Chas. E. Bentley. The occasion was the meeting of the Chicago Medical Society. Dr. Bentley was invited by the society to read a paper before that body on the "Contact Points of the Medical and Dental Profession." He made a favorable impression and the presentation was one of the most apt and creditable that had been presented to the society this year." We are proud of the fact that we have colored men in our professions who not only aspire to the highest but attain that point. We are gratified that at least in Chicago colored men of merit are so recognized by reason of their achievements. The recognition of Dr. Bentley's ability in his profession by a kindred one is indeed one of which his profession can be proud and the colored people doubly. JOSEPH H. STUART LAWYER.

REGULAR KNOW NOTHING. Kansas City Standard Oil Company Manager. Kansas City.—Francsi M. Cockrell of the Interstate Commerce Commission severely reprimanded G. W. Mayer, Kansas City manager of the Standard Oil Company, during the investigation into the alleged methods of railroads and the Standard Oil Company in discriminating against independent oil men hereabouts. The lawyers for the commission, J. T. Marehand and Charles Munn, and the lawyers for the independent oil producers, Frank S. Monett, Clifford Thorne and S. W. Brookhart, had been trying hard to get from Mayer an admission that there was any connection-between the Standard Oil Company, the Union Tank Line Company, the Republic Oil Company, the Water-Pierce Oil Company and other companies. To all questions Mr. Mayer answered: "I do not know," although he had been a manager of the Standard Oil Company for twenty-eight years. At the close of his testimony he was reprimanded by the commissioner. Attorney General Hadley of Missouri was notified by an attorney for the Standard Oil Company that the only testimony given in the Missouri inquiry by officers of the Standard will be given under compulsion. Mr. Cockrell had asked Mayer: "Tell this commission, are the Republic company and the Waters-Pierce Oil Company part of the Standard Oil Company?" "I do not know, sir." "What is your best impression about it?" "I have none." "Don't you feel and know in your heart that they are all part and parcel of the same company?" "I do not know." "Don't you feel in your heart it is so?" "I don't know, sir." Then the veteran senator slapped the desk, with his fist and said, severely: "I am tired and sick of this effort made by Standard Oil people to conceal this fact, when every man, woman and child knows it is so. Now everybody wants the truth told here, and why don't you tell it? Every tub ought to stand on its own bottom and you folks ought not to dodge this question further." CHANCE FOR DENVER. Bill for Federal Building Passed by Senate. Washington.—The Senate Tuesday passed the Teller bill appropriating $2,500,000 for a federal building at Denver, which was called up by Senator Patterson by unanimous consent. The chances for the passage of the bill in the House are remote, but there is a slight possibility of ultimate success of the measure should there be an omnibus building bill passed at this session of Congress. It is stated that the purpose of the House building committee is to report an omnibus bill carrying not more than an aggregate of $25,000,000 and to include no single item of more than $500,000, which would eliminate Denver. Should the bill pass the House it would undoubtedly be amended in the Senate and many buildings added which would be omitted in the House bill. An opportunity would thus be given to include Denver, which would not be overlooked by its friends and there would be a fighting chance to get the amount carried in the bill which passed Tuesday added to the omnibus bill with a view to holding it in conference and securing its retention when final action should be reached. While the House buildings committee and postmaster general are advocating independent postoffice buildings for cities of the class of Denver at a cost not to exceed $500,000, this plan is not endorsed by the supervising architect nor by the Senate committee on public buildings, who contend that it is more economical for the government and more convenient for the transaction of public business to have adequate public buildings to accommodate all classes of the government's work. TO PREVENT LYNCHING. Fears That St. John Will Be in Danger at Telluride. Denver.—The News says: Governor McDonald has been asked to prevent the lynching of Vincent St. John when he is taken to Telluride by Sheriff Rutan. The governor was notified yesterday by J. C. Williams, vice president of the Western Federation of Miners, that he had learned through relatives of St. John that a conspiracy had been formed to seize St. John as soon as he reached Telluride and hang him. Williams urged the governor to prevent the carrying out of such a scheme by the use of his full authority. Replying to the letter, Governor McDonald stated that he would see that St. John was given full protection. Referring to the matter afterward, the governor said that it was his intention to communicate with Sheriff Rutan and tell him the contents of Mr. Williams' letter; that personally he had no fear of mob violence, but that he would instruct the sheriff to use every precaution to protect his prisoner. Good Health at Panama. Panama.—Col. William C. Gorgas, chief sanitary officer of the canal zone, has transmitted to Governor Magoon his report for the month of February. In that month no case of yellow fever or quarantinable disease occurred within the canal zone, though bubonic plague, yellow fever and smallpox are prevalent on the South American Pacific coast and also at Barranquilla, Colombia. One case of yellow fever was reported at Bocas Del Toro, where Dr. Purnell has been sent Among the 23,000 canal employees the sick rate for the month was twenty per thousand, the deaths numbering seyen whitens and twenty nine negroes FAME AND THE NEOPHYTE The Aspiring Shepherd and the Beautiful World's Desire—An Allegory of the Fiery Stripling and the Vanishing Ideal.

WHY ALL BROA A certain young woman from Texas got to New York night before last. Bright and early yesterday morning she donned a new gray gown, made especially for the benefit of Manhattan Island, and started from Fifty-eighth street to see what Broadway looked like. It was all joy and wonder till she passed Forty-second street and drew near to Herr Connied's song castle. Then the young woman from Texas suddenly discovered that everybody who passed was staring at her. At first she thought it must be a mistake—but it wasn't. Undoubtedly something was the matter. Panicstricken, Miss Texas began to revolve like a dancing Dervish and looked over her shoulder to see if the trouble was with her clothes. She could discover nothing to warrant the curious, amused glances that were cast at her. With every step she got more nervous. "How in the world do these people know this is the first time I ever saw Broadway?" she asked herself. "I'm It will be remembered that at the time of the Boxer outbreak Earl Li was in Canton as viceroy of the Two-Kwangs, says a writer in the Chau-tanquan. While there he made a contract with a syndicate of native merchants to sell to them the privilege of collecting the likin tax or mileage duties on local commerce. The terms were one-fourth cash and the balance in equal quarterly installments. The syndicate made their first payment and then attempted to reimburse themselves by collecting the tax from their competitors in business while passing their own goods free. This resulted in riots so fierce that the syndicate was forced to abandon its efforts to collect the tax. They then appealed to Earl Li for the return of their money and insisted that he should take over the collection of the tax, which was properly a government function. The earl refused and intimated that he would hold the Two old farmers, next-door neighbors, named respectively Lou Hyde and Dave Styles, live within a radius of ten miles of Ossipee, N. H. They are wont to vie with one another in telling of their wonderful luck fishing. One hot June day Dave helped Lou cut his hay. Next day Dave sauntered into the village postoffice and gave an account of his doings the day previous in this manner: "Went fishin' yesterday. Luck? Well, by snum, guess I did have luck! Got forty beauties; biggest one weighed two pounds if it did an ounce; littlest feller quarter of a pound, sure as God made little apples." The audience of native wiseacres was duly impressed. During that same afternoon Lon Hyde drove up to While E. C. Carrigan was in Gen. B. F. Butler's law office a lady came in to ask some advice. As the general was not in, Mr. Carrigan questioned her, and told her he would submit her case to the general, which he did. The general was to leave the next day for Washington, and told Mr. Carrigan to prepare a brief of the lady's case and show it to him the next day. Mr. Carrigan sat up half of the night writing his brief. The next morning, about fifteen minutes before Butler was to take his carriage for the train, he told Mr. Carrigan he would look at his brief and give his opinion. "O'er all the world behind her flying feet He strained to clasp her in a close embrace. And on lured him as an angel fleet, A milk白 fawn with flushed and rose-leaf face.

But it didn't do any good. Still the people stared at the little woman in the gray dress. Her course to Thirty-fifth street was all misery and gloom. It was impossible to get away from those looks. Her face began to take on a hunted expression. All at once she was overjoyed to see the face of a woman with whom she had dined in her Fifty-eight street boarding house the night before. The fellow-boarder stared at her, too. "What is the matter with me?" wailed the Texan, rushing up to the other woman. "What makes these awful people stare at me so?" The other woman gurgled: "Don't you see all those posters? Everybody thinks you are part of the parade," she said. There were six sandwich men, each bearing a large placard, reading: "See 'The Little Gray Lady.'" The woman from Texas, in her gray gown, had walked five blocks behind them.—New York Times. members of the syndicate for the other payments as they came due. At this time the earl was called to Pekin to arrange peace with the foreign powers, and the syndicate, having been unable to secure the return of its money, made arrangements with a band of pirates that they should waylay the earl on his trip up the coast and take back the bullion paid him by the syndicate, for which service the pirates were to receive a percentage. The earl, however, heard of the arrangement and therefore refused to make the trip in a Chinese vessel, knowing that the crew would be in sympathy with the pirates, if in fact a large number of the crew were not made up from the pirate band; so he remained at Canton, surrounded by his retainers, refusing to go to Pekin until an English war vessel was sent to convey him and his ill-gotten gains to a place of safety in the north. the store to get the mail (one circular of a new brand of spavin cure and the weekly paper). The conscientious postmaster duly recounted the great luck Dave had had fishing the day before, hoping to pique Lon's pride. Lon listened in silence to the entire recital. Then, rising slowly from his rush-bottomed chair, he unhitched his trusty nag from the kerosene barrel in front of the store, expectorated carefully toward the court house, and asked: "Dave caught all them, did he?" "Sartain," affirmed the postmaster. "Yesterday?" "Sure, yesterday." Lon climbed into his buggy, picked up the reins, chirruped to the horse, and then crushingly flung over his shoulder: "The devil: he hain't been." Mr. Carrigan began by saying: "General, I have made a most careful study of this case. I have the points all in my head, and can state them to you in three minutes." "Let me have the brief," again said the general, somewhat sharply. "But, Gen. Butler," said Mr. Carrigan, "I had a brief prepared, and intended to show it to you, but I left it at home on my table. However, as I said, I have all the points of the case in my head." ```markdown ``` "Young man," said the general, "the next time you have a brief to prepare for me bring me the brief, and leave your head at home on the table."

Companies Knights of Pythias. Aetna Company No. 1, and Eureka Company No. 4, Uniform Rank Knights of Pythias, gave a very elaborate reception at 1712 Curtis street, last Wednesday night in honor of General J. M. Hazlewood of Charleston, W. Va., who is a guest in our city. The U. R. boys were out in full-dress uniform to show their highest respects to the guest of honor, who ranks high as an officer in the organization. After an introduction of General Hazlewood to the Sir Knights by Sir Knight G. C. Sample, all were seated at a long banquet table which was very beautifully decorated and bore a very sumptuous menu. The General was seated at the head of the table with Col. Wm. Greenleaf on his right and Lieut. G C. Sample on his left, while at the other end of the table was Grand Chancellor W. R. Hardy of Pueblo, who invoked the blessing. Very wity and pointed toasts were an enjoyable part of the program. General Hazlewood spoke at length on the great strides of progress of Pythianism. His eulogy of the executive ability of Supreme Chancellor S.W. Starks was greeted with a vigorous applause; in fact the name "Starks" stands as a sparkling light in Pythian circles. He also paid a high tribute to Major General R.R. Jackson, who stands at the head of the military department of the order and whose wise administration has increased the membership to an enormous number. The Sir Knights were much elated with the logical advice of the General when he referred to the help and success that subordinate branches could attain by obedience to law and superior officers. He is a pleasing talker and a very impressive lesson was left in the minds of all who heard him. He was warmly congratulated at the close of his remarks. The General speaks in the highest terms of the hospitable citizens of Denver and will always "Keep a warm spot in his heart for them." Local Notices.

G Denver, Colo St. Patrick A Condensed Sketch of the Great Irish Saint. ```markdown ``` ```markdown ``` Patrick began life in Dumbarton, Scotland, in the year A. D. 287. He came from noble stock, his father ranking among his townsmen as a magistrate. Pirates carried him away to Ireland in his fifteenth year and sold him into slavery. For six years he served as shepherd slave. He escaped and was recaptured. He escaped a second time and went home to Scotland. When he received the divine call to devote his life to the conversion of the Irish, his parents opposed him. They said he already had experienced enough sorrow in that land. But he was ready to forego comforts, to endure hardships, to leave home and native land if thereby the Irish could be saved. To bring him to speedy decision the angel Victorious came to him in a dream, saying: "The voice of the Irish. We pray thee, holy youth, to come and henceforth walk among us!" He began his mission among his old slave companions. He started first of all to give the gospel to his old slavemaster, who, hearing of Patrick's approach, killed himself. He aimed first to convert the chief of the clan, and through him the clan itself. By this method he wrought all over Ireland until every tribe heard and received the new religion. He established 35 churches, bap- KNOWN AS ST. PATRICK'S STONE. Pressless Relic of the Saint Owned by American. The above photograph was produced from a fac simile of the original stone, caller "St. Patrick's Stone." It derives its name from the patron 1 saint, who while in Ireland prayed so long and fervently for the deliverance from snakes, which were a plague in Ireland. He thus caused the indentations, which, according to the legend, are the imprint of St. Patrick's knees. The stone was carried from Ireland to England in 1839, and thence to America in 1849, where it remains with its present owner. A Toast to the Irish Blood. Fill me a cup with the "Dew of Killarney. Pure than charity, essence of fire; Ogling a laugh at ye, beaded with blairney; Breath of the peat-smoke, and blood of desire! desire! Fill me a cup, till I drink to St. Jacques. Drink to the harp strains, the songs that beguile; Drink to our emblem, the mystical shamrock! Up with ye! Down it! The Emerald Isle. Oh, we are the world's great lovers; To our hearts love fled from the skies. For we know the secret of laughter. And we know the passion of sighs. All that we love fled to our airbnb, And your soul to our Irish eyes. We follow the star of the vision. Whose light to our souls doth stream. For us swing the ivory portals. Where the pearls of fancy gleam, 'Mid the coarse, phillistine banter— "Tis the mad Celt's madder dream"' In the van of the world's great battles, We have followed the scarlet ways. Then, to war with our pen's stiletto! For the battle, to the battle! And, behold the Pharisee, blunt, Impailed on our poignant phrase. From ceremonies of convention The heart and brain we free— Rebels, and mockers, and dreamers, Of the open road and the sea. Our pelf is but love and laughter, Lootless and friendless, we! Though broken our falling rafters, Though our larder shelf be bare, Better the wi and mould, And the wi and mould that know not care, And the hand that is free and ready A crust with all to share! Then fill me a cup, till I drink to St. Patrick; Drink to the harp strains, the songs that beguile; Drink to our emblem, the mystical sham- rock. Up with ye! Down it! The Emerald St. Patrick Taught Temperance. St. Patrick taught temperance. St. Patrick was an apostle of temperance. He desired that his disciples should not drink during the day, but only after vespers. One of them named Coleman went thirsty all day in the fields praying for the hour of vespers, and when the bells rang he dropped dead. To-day any one bearing the name of Coleman is likely to have that of "stadhach" attached in memory of the "thirsty one." The favorite drink of the people, "poeen," dates to the name Patrick. And on his feast day no Irishman need go hungry or thirsty, as "Patrick's pot" is set out for refreshment in every inn and every household and the stranger is made welcome to eat and drink. tized by immersion 12,000 converts, and ordained 50 preachers. He established schools, mills, factories, and stores for general merchandise. His schools supplied all Brittany with missionaries for centuries. He instilled into his converts the principles of industry, sound morals and good government. The most celebrated of these schools was at Armagh. At one time it had 7,000 students. The Danes destroyed it in the eighth century. Patrick wrote two books, "The Epistle to Coroticus," and "Confessions." The former denounced Coroticus for killing converts on the northeast coast of Ireland; the latter is Patrick's autobiography. These books betray a lack of classical learning. Patrick calls himself unlearned and rustic. In style he is crude and archaic. His sentences are ungrammatical and incorrect, but clear and compact. His written style in Latin corresponds to Mr. Moody's in English. Patrick seems to have qualified himself in much the same manner as Mr. Moody. He was an ideal preacher. Simple, but never commonplace; earnest, but not confused; persuasive, but not dormatic; aggressive, but always reasonable. Convicted that he was an ambassador for Christ, he backed up his preaching with the authority of God Almighty. NATIONAL COLOR OF IRELAND First Worn by the Heroic Insurgents of Wexford. Some orators are wont to refer vividly to the green flag as "the ancient banner of Ireland." Probably, however, St. Patrick and his contemporaries never saw a green flag in Ireland, nor did the Irish for about fourteen centuries after him. There is no mention of a green flag in the Irish annals previous to 1798. At the celebrated skirmish known as "the battle of the Boyne" the opposing armies of King William and his father-in-law, King James, wore red uniforms. In order to avoid killing one another by mistake in the confusion of battle William's men stuck green leaves in their hats, while those of James wore white paper rosettes, representing the white rose of York. Thus, by strange irony, the Orangemen were the first wearers of the green in Ireland. The famous Irish brigade in the service of France wore red uniforms; some of them therefore were mistaken for English and cut down by the French cavalry in the melee when the brigade's charge gained the victory at Fontenoy. The Irish insurgents of 1798. Catholics and Protestants, were the first to adopt green as the national color of Ireland. It had been previously proposed as the "color of hope" by Camille Desmoulins to the French revolutionists, but he was outvoted in favor of the tricolor. The Wexford insurgents at first used impartially flags of various colors—red, yellow and green—but eventually they fixed on green, which, with baptism of heroic blood, was then firmly and permanently established as the national color of Ireland. There have been some fantastic and wholly unsuccessful attempts to introduce a green, white and yellow "Irish tricolor." PLEASURE FOR THE EVENING. Euchre Party with Appropriate Colors and Decorations. This affair is to be a euchre party. Two ladies have joined forces and will have fifteen tables—six at each table. Their cards will be tied with narrow ribbon of emerald hue. The rooms will be decorated with quantities of green cheesecloth drawn from the four corners of the room to the central chandelier. The Irish flag will adorn pictures, doorways and window curtains. Palms and ferns will occupy all available nooks, while the florist will furnish carnations or roses of a beautiful green color. They are really every effective, but only appropriate for St. Patrick's day. The card tables are covered with green paper cambric—this slippery surface is ideal for card playing. The score cards are to be four-leaved clovers with a knot of green. For refreshments green grapes, but, apple and celery salad will be served with green mayonnaise dressing, sandwiches, coffee, olives and sherbet colored green with pistachio nuts, green iced individual cakes with peppermint bars of the same hue. The napkins are pinned with a green woven silk shamrock and the forks and spoons are to be tied with green ribbon. The prizes are a small picture framed in dark green molding, a green art glass vase, a card case of green leather and a beautiful Boston fern. It is needless to say that the hostesses are to be gowned one in green and the other in white, with sash and bow of St. Patrick's favorite color. St. Patrick's Day. For a little dinner on St. Patrick's day, arrange a flat basket of shamrock edged with white violets for a center piece, and have green candles with white shades painted with wreaths of shamrock. Serve the sherbet in little pasteboard pots, the covers of which are filled with artificial shamrock in moss.—Joseph Grenier in Harper's Bazar. SHOULD A HORSE BE CLIPPED? CLIPPING IN THE EARLY SPRING RECOMMENDED BY LEADING VETERINARIANS, i: Thinking Men Readily Recognize Its Advantages. “S horse is a valuable asset, and should receive the best care possible. He should be well fed, comfortably stabled, carefully groomed and clipped & the early spring. If he receives mrese attentions he will work well and improve in value. A horse lives under artificial conditions. In his wild state he required none of these attentions, for he was able to look out for himself. The domesticated animal, being worked under condi- tions that are In themselves artificial, must be Kept in condition for such work. ‘The clipping of a horse in the early spring is now conceded by all the leading veterinarians to be as essen tial to a horse’s well being as shoeing him or giving him a comfortable bed to lie on. Farmers in England and France have been clipping their horses for many years, and American farmers are not slow to realize its advantages. A clipped horse dries out rapidly after a hard day’s work, and will rest comfortably and be re. freshed for the work the following day. An unclipped horse is liable to catch the heaves, pneumonia and all sorts of colds, rheumatism, ete. More especially is this so in the early spring, when his hair is long and he “is “soft.” If worked hard he will per spire freely and the moisture will. be held by his long hair, and the food that should go to nourish him will be used to replenish the heat that is be- ‘pe constantly taken from his body by the mass of cold wet hair. If clipped, the perspiration will evapor. ate almost as soon as secreted, and when put in the stable he rests com- fortably and his food does him good. Some years ago a Buffalo street car company tested the value of clipping in the following manner: They own: ed 500 horses, and 250 of these were clipped early in the spring and 250 were not clipped. A careful record was kept of results, and it was found that of the 250 unclipped horses 153 were afflicted with coughs and pneu monia, while of the 250 clipped not one case of sickness was reported. A man would not expect to enjoy very good health if he did hard man- ual work clothed with heavy under- wear, a heavy suit and a fur overcoat, and after perspiring freely, as he naturally would, go to sleep without removing same. It is just as ridicu- lous to expect a horse to be in perfect health if worked under the same con. ditions. If you would get the best returns from your investment in your horse, treat him right, and be sure and clip him in the early spring A first. class horse-clipping machine can be bought at almost any hardware store i less than $7.00.—Horse Review, ‘Dec. 5th, 1905. A Horse's Hands and Feet. ‘The horse never puts his heel on the ground, nor even the ball of his foot. He stands up on the very tips of his toes, and this is, in part, the reason why he can trot’ so fast. Dobbin’s heels are half way up his hind legs, and what we call his knees are really his wrists, The part corresponding to the upper arm is short and is so em- bedded in the muscles of the shoulder that the elbow comes next the body, but the horse has only one digit to each limb, and the wrist bones are comparatively small, The so-called ankle, then, is the knuckle, where the digit joins the hand or the foot, and the “foot” is only a single thick finger or toe, with a great nail for a hoof. The lower half of the horse's foreleg is really a gigantic hand, with only the middle finger and a piece out of the middle of the palm, while the corresponding part of his hind leg is a big single toed foot.—St. Nicholas. Rational Temperance Movement. During the past summer and winter the officials of the Baden railroads in- augurated the practice of serving hot coffee to their employes at the expense ‘of the management of the railroads, or at the expense of the government. ‘Th experiment has been attended with gratifying results. The consumption of alcoholic drinks has materially de- creased as a result of the practice, and the efficiency of the workmen has in: creased: s Soa , gE >. r- DODDS 2D iE \ 2 KIDNEY 2 Na PILLS =F wat eA Reg ear oan area SS Ree aor tg NE ar gg a | CURES [50c, and $1.00.| || Swine Disease =3Hog Cholera rs EAR a SLOAN 61 Aang S,Borton, se CONDENSED TELEGRAMS gambling woe ns in futures is |sambling.

A fire at Sheboygan, Wisconsin, March 6th, caused a loss og $100,000 in the furniture factory district. ‘The heaviest losers are Sheboygan Couch Company, $50,000; Sears Roebuck & Co., Chicago, warehouse, $30,000; Montgomery Ward & Co., warehouse, $10,000. ‘There {s a trust for the dead as well as for the living in Chicago, according to the finding of the Cigarmakers’ un- jon. ‘There is a monopoly of cemeteries rwithin the city limits and union labor has no place to bury its dependent dead except at prices for lots that are prohibitive. One of the finest club buildings in the world is planned by the Univer- sity club of Chicago on the site of the present offices of the McCormick Har- vester Company, and when completed and furnished it is expected to repre- sent an outlay of over $1,000,000, inde- pendent of what is paid for the ground lease. Columbia college, New York City, is considering plans for un athletic field to cost $1,000,000.. As no ground near the university building ts avail- ‘able, it is proposed to make the ground by filling in the shallow shore waters of the Hud on river as far out as the pier headline, between 116th and 120th streets.

Habit-formine Medicines Whatever may be the fact as to many of the so-called patent medicines con- Bing injurious ingredients as broadly pup ied in some journals of more or less influence, this publicity has certainly ‘been of great interest in arousing needed attention to this subject.

To Harness Victoria Falls. Consul General Washington of Cape Town thinks that South Africa is on the eve of introducing vast changes in its industrial life. He looks for the transmission of electrical power that is to be generated by the mighty rivers of the interior. The question of the development and transmission of elec- trical power from the Victoria Falls, the consul general says, is to be con: sidered by a committee of experts. Two engineering specialists to the Victoria company are inspecting water power installations in European coun. tries with a view to their application to Rhodesia, America’s supremacy in the electrical field should secure the orders for machinery and supplies that will be needed to develop this vast water power. An electrical ‘engineer from New York has been visiting Europe in con- nection with the projcet of supplying electrical power to the Rand from the Victoria Falls. He and the highest European authorities whom the char- tered company consulted in the matter were unanimous that the scheme was not only possible, but was payable. The experts regarded the climate of South Africa as the most suitable in the world for the transmission of power, because, apart from its dry- ess, there is no ice or snow to inter- fere with the working of the plant. ‘The distance over which transmission woud have to be made presents, they declare, absolutely no difficulty. Even those who don’t believe in race suicide must admit that the stork sometimes makes a perfect goose ot tumself. THE EDITOR. Explains How to Keep Up Mental and Physical Vigor. | A New Jersey editor writes: “A long indulgence in improper food brought on a condition of nervous dyspepsia, nearly three years ago, so severe that I had to quit work entire- ly. I put myself on a strict regimen of Grape-Nuts food, with plenty of out- ee exercise and in a few months found my stomach so far restored that ‘the process of digestion gaye me ‘pleasure instead of distress. “It also built up my strength so that I was able to resume ‘my business, which is onerous, as I not only edit my paper but also do a great deal of ‘outside’ writing. “I find that the Grape-Nuts diet en- ables me to write with greater vigor than ever before, and without the feel- ing of brain fag with which I used to be troubled. As to bodily vigor—i can and do walk miles every day without fatigue—a few squares used to weary me before I began to live on Grape- Nuts!” Name given by Postum Co,, Battle Creek, Mich. | There's a reason.

Two Hundred Thousand Emigrants in Five Moers. Since the census of 1900 was taken nearly 200,000 Irish emigrants have settled im the United States, the year ending with July, 1905, showing a larger number than any year since 1895, writes Plummer F. Jones in the World To-Day for March. A new im- petus has been given to Irish immigra- tion within the past two years, a turn which {8 quite perplexing to those na: tive Irish societies which have been unsuccessfully attempting to stop the great national leak for so many years. ‘The unrest among the young native Irish element is still wonderfully strong. An American traveler in Ire- land is as much impressed with this fact as he is with anything else in that country Of remarkaable things. —Ev- erywhere he sees and hears of whole- sale departures for the United States. Even in the remotest rural hamlets the old people can be heard lamenting some recent exodus of the most prom- ising young boys and girls. Almost every man or woman that a traveler meeis and talks with In Ireland has a number of brothers or sisters or very near relatives who have recently left for the United States. Emigration agencies exist in every part of the island. Every village has a steamship agent, to whose advantage it is to use every inducement to infl ence the young mien and women to emi- grate. Plead for Mumanity: It is said that Prince Louis Napo- leon, who is in the Russian service as governor of the Caucasus, recently objected to having his soldiers fire on unarmed mobs of workmen. Several of the grand dukes are also sald to have lodged like objections with the Czar.

Box 133, Des Moines, lowa” ae eee WHAT FASHION DECORLES FOR WOMEN WHAT Bright Colors to Be Vogue. The shops are beginning to get ready for the spring. The windows rare blossoming into spring gowns of varying degrees of beauty or the reverse. All the colors of the spectrum, and some which do not appear in the rainbow, are to be found in the new materials and you may select anything from a robe of spotless white to a peacock blue or a sapphire or navy blue. The peacock shades of blue and green seem a bit vivid at first sight, but it is probable that after a little we will get so accustomed to them we will not consider them at all striking. They are really not a bit more vivid than the plums and violets which have been worn so much this winter, yet for some reason the color seems more insistent, seems to attract one's attention more decidedly than other shades. It is a trying color this peacock blue—or green, as the case may be—and there are really few women who can wear it successfully. The gowns are made with the short round or pointed Eton coat. There is something about this style which seems to particularly recommend it for spring and summer wear. The coat is jaunty, has style, is becoming and is not too heavy or warm a wrap for the warmer days of the early spring. In the white serges, fannels and mohairs which are shown the same style of making up is followed. Simple Cloth Waist. Pretty blouse of green cloth made with groups of tucks and finished at the neck with a little flat collar forming straps in front ornamented with buttons. The standing collar is of linen with cravat of silk or velvet, of which the girdle is also made. 1 The sleeves have little epaulettes, and deep cuffs encircled with groups of tucks and finished at the top with little straps ornamented with buttons. Best Materials for Summer. Sicillienne cloth stands at the head of serviceable and modish materials, while all other mohair weaves will continue to run it a close second in popular favor. Broadcloth never will go out of fashion, of that you may be certain; but for summer wear a light weight rough woolen goods that shakes dust easily more than repays the careful shopper for its purchase by keeping its freshness during the entire season. Voiles of sheer and less wiry weave are again to the fore, and are patterned in stunning pladds and checks, which will be made up over plain silks of a contrasting color.—New York Sun. Concerning the Shoulder Much attention is paid to shoulder effects, and though the general tendency is toward a shorter shoulder seam there is no prospect of a let-up from the vari-shaped shoulder yokes and emplacements which are to be found worked out with stitchings of bias bands of appliques of lace. The latest wrap models are not lines, even the visionary chiffon foundation of a season ago having disappeared. It is a pretty idea to underlay the open work which trims a design with a band of contrasting silk to bring out the effect of the design, and nothing answers the purpose better than the six-inch-wide strips of ribbon to be found on the sacrificial bargain counters at this season. Green and rose are the shades most in demand, although dark blue is employed. Crepe de Chine Waist. Blouse of lavender crepe de chine gathered, or plaited at the shoulders and encircled below with deep tucks. It is ornamented with butt tons and motifs of embroidery or gulp pure and finished at the neck with a little collar of embroidery velvet. 1 The chemisette, jabot and sleeve puffs are of lace. The wide crepe de chine sleeves are finished with deep tucks. The corse-let girdle is of silk to match. The season's skirts vary considerably, some being fashioned after the circular model, with tailored folds, others showing plains which are partly sittched down and show rows of tiny white buttons as a finish; others have the deep yoke effect, with clusters of side plains set in points or scallops, while in others plains alternate with panels of plain cloth tucked or stitched about the bottom. The little coats are extremely chic. They are made either belted or loose. In the former case the belt is attached F 1. Black embroidered mull over white satin princess foundation. Butterfly and walls of Troy design in black sequin. 2. 2. Yellow dotted net over yellow silk slip. Insertions of lace in design. at the back and fastens low in front, the two fronts hanging free. In other instances the entire jacket is cut in the regulation. Eton shape and trimmed with silk braid, straps of stitched cloth or some of the fancy oriental embroidery bands which are so effective when applied to woolen or silk goods. The embroideries are used to simulate little vests, to form narrow revers or are applied as collar and cuffs where the cut of the jacket warrants these finishes. Summer Negligees. Among the thin stuffs which lend themselves to the making of such exquisite summer negligees are those new swisses, white, with the tiniest of flower wreaths scattered over them, a wreath composed, perhaps, of six wee blossoms, done in pairs of three colors. Or an odd Oriental figure will be embroidered in two colors, the designs kept to small, unobtrusive figures so as not to let the two or three toned embroidery seem startling. WHILE THE TEA DREWS Neapolitan and milan straws are both in evidence. The shoulders of all new gowns are broad in effect. Italian braid, closer woven than the Japanese, is very smart. Embroidered roses in pink, green and silver decorate a white tulle hat. Japanese straw, something like the tea-box coverings, is new and dashing. To trim chiffon with cloth is a popular fad, and the contrast of the two materials is certainly most effective. Little capes reaching only to the elbow are likely to be good style for the spring costume that has a princess skirt. Very smart is a stiff hat with crown of red Japanese straw, brim of mixed red and white, and trimming of red wings. A very great use of ribbon is made on evening gowns, on some falling in long pointed ends from the belt all around the skirt. Plain Coats Not Popular. Very few plain coats are to be found among the latest novelties. Both the backs and the fronts have lines of braid or embroidery, fancy waistcoats trimmed or embroidered, while the embroidered belt or girdle is ubiquitous. If an absolutely plain coat is demanded then the gown must be of the tailor made description, in severe lines and of quite a different style. Folds of the material draped across the bust do not seem in keeping with a jacket, but such is the decree of Dame Fashion, and the decree is followed, whether the material be one that cannot be easily draped or whether it be of some thin, light fabric that can easily be treated in such a way.—New York Herald. HINTS TO HOUSEWIVES Until the plumber can come a leak can be temporarily stopped with a mixture of yellow soap, whiting and a very little water. Add a little washing soda to the boiling water in which greasy dishes are washed and they never will have a streaky appearance. Straw mattings may be cleaned with a coarse cloth dipped in salt and water and then wiped dry. The salt prevents the matting from turning yellow. In serving tea, if orange pekoe is used a clove placed in the tea ball will give a piquant flavor that will not be recognized, but that will be most enjoyable. A too hot oven may be quickly cooled by placing in it a basin of water. The steam from the water will not injure anything that may be cooking, except puff pastry. Plaids Not for the Stout. The heavyweight sisterhood should beware of the new plaids. They very swagger to look at in the bed but on the human frame they are fatal to the much desired long, lissome lines, and to that almost indefinable, priceless quality known as sweetness. Pastel Blue Cloth. Blue cloth costumes, especially in the pastel shades, are universally fashionable. They are made up in princess style or with fancy short jacket and trimmed skirts. A combination of princess and street jacket effect is the latest fashion. At the sides and back there is a wide shaped girdle of satin which in part is hidden by a wid pleat of the material, which extend from just below the waist yoke to the very hem of the skirt, thus giving the effect of a princess gown in front, but with the sides and back more on the coat and skirt style.

The chemisette is of Irish lace finished around the low neck with a plaited band of the material bordered with the valenciennes lace. The girdle and knot are of white, or pale green ribbon. An old southern delicacy is the famous corn pudding, Jackson's formula for which is as follows: Take a can of corn, or a dozen ears of fresh corn. If fresh corn is used, grate it; if canned corn, press it through a colander. Beat the whites of four eggs and then the yolks separately. To the beaten yolks add a tablespoonful of butter which have been well rubbed together. Beat the yolks until they are light again, after which add a quart of sweet milk and a teaspoonful of salt. Mix these ingredients together and add the corn, beating the mixture until it has become well blended. Add, then, the whites of the eggs, which have been beaten to a a stiff froth, and when they have been well mixed bake the pudding for about an hour in a slow oven, with a piece of brown paper over the top of it. It is then ready to be served as an ideal accompaniment for any roast.

Alexander Posey, interpreter and diplomat of the Dawes commission, who recently spent some time among the Snake Indians to secure evidence needed in making record of Creek Indians, tells of a strange discovery he has made. Among the fullblood Snakes he found a woman who is the modern Zenobia of her race. Her Indian name is Fahnee. She can not speak English, but is considered a woman of wisdom among her tribesmen. She is 50 years old, and for years there has not been a council of war, or any other matter of import to the tribe, at which she has not been present and given advice. She is always listened to by the men of the tribe, and seldom has her judgment been at fault. She has been in sympathy with the faction, which has always resisted the allotment of lands. She has never led a band of Indians in a fight, but she has taken a very active part in shaping the policy of the tribal government for the last twenty-five years. The late Dean Hole of Rochester, England, was a man of many good stories, and one of his favorite anecdotes concerned a Lancashire minister who received a curious invitation. The minister in question was sitting in his study one night when a visitor was announced, and a miner, to whose wife he had ministered during a long illness, entered. Having cautiously looked around to se that there were no listeners the miner thus addressed the clergyman, with an air of grave, mysterious importance: "You've been very kind to my old gal when she was sick so long, and I want to do yer a good turn. There's going to be a grand dog-fight in this parish to-morrow, and I can get yer into th' inner ring!" Wu Ting-Fang, formerly Chinese minister to this country, is now connected with the bureau of commerce and learning in his native land. The head of the bureau is a very conservative old official, the next in rank being a young prince, who is completely dominated by his superior. Under the circumstances it is not believed that Mr. Wu is pleasantly situated, he being a man of progressive Western ideas.
