Protect Your Homes at Any Cost. Protect Your Homes at Any Cost. The Springfield, Ohio, Caucasian Mob of a Few Days ago, Sets a Most Heinous Example of Barbarism. VOL. XII. Protect Your Home The Springfield, Ohio, Cauca Sets a Most Heinous The Voice of Missions, published in New York City, in a comment on the Springfield, Ohio, mob, says: In the two editorials of the New York Times and World respectively, they speak of the so-called race riot that took place a few nights ago in Springfield, Ohio, the home of Congressman Keefer. We commend the position of the World and times respectively. But we beg to differ with the Associated Press dispatch that announces that there was a race riot in Springfield. It is absolutely false. The facts are that a Negro shot a white railroad brakeman in the afternoon of Wednesday, and Thursday and Friday nights a mob of two thousand white men paraded the streets of a certain portion of Springfield, shooting, beating, and attempting to kill every Negro with whom they came in contact; burning the houses and destroying the homes of the Negroes throughout the entire section of a certain Negro locality. This thing was kept up until the mob had satisfied itself. And yet the papers had the effrontery to call this a "race riot!" Of course the officers of the law were powerless to control the mob and the owners of property, so they say, have no redress against the city and county for the loss of their property that has been destroyed by this band of highwaymen. The state capital is less than a hundred miles from Springfield, and everything that could possibly be necessary to put down these rebels against law and order was at the command of the authorities, but notwithstanding that, they allowed them to do their worst. We make a great to-do over the conduct of Russia toward the Jew, but it is just as well for us to consider our own meanness, our own murderous spirit, and the total disregard for the rights and privileges of our citizens at home. If a class of people are to be denied the right to live because one of their race is guilty of shooting a member of another race, as was in the case of Springfield, we make bold to affirm that the barbarity and cruelty of America is as great as any ever displayed Russia, Turkey, or any people upon the globe. We believe, and indeed have practiced the principle advanced state Historical and N. 21 Society, Denver, Colo SAVED BY PATI RACI ORAD THE JOURNAL mes at Any Cost. Russian Mob of a Few Days ago, Example of Barbarism. in the interest of peace and conservatism. But when the state itself persists in refusing to do its duty to preserve the life of helpless women and children because some drunken scalawag shoots a man, patience ceases to be a virtue. And we stand upon the verge of losing confidence in, and respect for the civilization that we have been taught from our infancy to love. Lyching upon lynching is piled one upon the other for any and every offense, small and great, by the hypocritical and cyntemp-table scullions who call themselves the leaders of civilization and the great pieneers and directors of Christian influence. It is basely false to assume that these riots and butcheries cannot be put down. If a Negro mobs or should attempt to butcher, slaughter, and destroy human life in a white community, the country would see how quickly an end would be put to it. In the same way, we contend, these offenders, though they be white, could be subdued and squelched if the officers of the law so desired. To our mind, it is next to child's play to order the military company to put down a mob, if they are not allowed to resort to such methods as will produce the result desired. Some years ago Colonel Coit, in Ohio, an officer of one of the military companies, was called out to stop the mob; he thought that the state meant that he should do his duty, and consequently proceeded to do it by shooting one of the rioters. It was by great effort that he succeeded in escaping from serving a term in the state penitentiary. This simply goes to show the fallacy of these state and county officials who pretend that they cannot control the mob. Something must be done to protect the lives and property of innocent Negroes of this country; innocent Negroes from destruction at the hands of mobs composed of white men that are liable to break out in any city in this country. Every man should have a home, and that home should be his castle, and at whatever cost, it is his bounded duty, as a man, to see to it that the sanctity of that home is dot disturbed by any man or men, white or black, even if it costs him his life to do so. This is his duty, and he is less than a man who fails to discharge it. --- Tucson ARIZ., MARCH 16, '06. TO COLORADO STATESMAN. DENVER, COLO. On the 10th of March I arrived in Tuscon. This town has distinction in several ways, first it claims to be the largest in the territory; it also claims the unique distinction of being the oldest town in the United States, it is 354 years old or 13 years older than St. Augustine, Fla. by official records now in Washington. This latter fact may not have a monetary value but a new interest attaches to any place in this new world where one walks amid walls hoary with centuries of time, when we are used to seeing an empire created and metropolitan cities builed in less than 50 years. We have here a town * [Name not visible] T. S. RECTOR. Nothing affords us more pleasure than to announce that our fellow townsman, T. S. Rector received word last week that he had been allowed a pension of $6.00 per month. Mr. Rector applied for a pension 11 years ago but his claims proved futile until the announcement of a few days ago. It will only be three years more 1909 when he will be placed on the dependent list. Mr. Rector enlisted on January 18, 1865 in Company A. 125th U. S. Colored Infantry at Louisville, Ky., and served until December 27, 1867. He is a member of John Brown Post No. 50. G. A. R. of Chicago. Mr. Rector has lived in Denver for a quarter of a century and is therefore one of the best known and highly esteemed men of the state. In secret societies he shines as a beacon light as an energetic and enthusiastic worker. He is a member of Rocky Mountain Lodge No. 1 A.F. & A. M., Red Cross --- Arizona Letter. which show evidences of an awakening, 2400 feet above sea level. Not so hot as Phoenix in summer, it is a distributing point for Southern Arizona and Northern Mexico, Bright skies and balmy air is the rule here. We have here quite a number of colored people, who as a rule seem to be doing well. They are not so far advanced as the people of Phoenix but on the upward move, one Masonic lodge and Eastern star both doing well for young lodges. The following list will show some activity among us in the accumulation of the temporalities of life. Mr. and Mrs. Eugene Williams own ranch and run the Occidental hotel, Rev. V. M. Cole of the M. E. church and wife own ranch and city property, their holdings are perhaps greater than [Name] Commandry No. 11 Knight Templar, and Arapahoe Lodge No. 2936, G. U. O. of O. F. In all of these orders he has been many times honored with the highest offices in the gift of the organization and has filled them with an ability that recommends nothing but praise. He is responsible for many new ideas that has promoted the prosperity and growth of these orders. Mr. Rector holds the position as clerk in one of the largest cigar stores in Denver. Mr. John D. Ross, the proprietor, speaks of Mr. Rector as one of his most responsible and reliable employees. As a citizen, Mr. Rector is reliable and honest in all his dealings and he weilds an influence second to none. He is a wise and conservative thinker and is always on the alert for the promotion of the race. To say more of Mr. Rector would only be to eulogize his every undertaking. --- any of our people; Messrs Jackson, Moncrief and Clemons own good ranch property, the latter conducts a barber shop as does also Messrs Bragg, Denkins and Coleman. Prof. J. W. Jenkins conducts a neat lodging house so does Mrs. C. Gates and Mrs. Cole. Families who own their homes are T. C. Hill, S. Lidell, E Bowen, Mr. Jackson, Millie Sheppard, J. McNeil and Mr. Grant. Those who own other property are Moncrief, Morgan, Lenoir, Williams, Dedman. Mrs. Alvers conducts a home restaurant on business street. In the matter of the church organization we seem to come on the stage just when the people were ripe for the African Methodist Episcopal church. We have the co-operation of some of the leading lights of our town, Prof. J. W. Jenkins for a number of years teacher in public school, has a willing mind and takes great interest in pushing forward every interest of the church. We have a number of young men who are worthy seconds. We have temporary use of the Salvation army hall, Rev. A. Wagner of Phoenix is with us for a few days. He is doing good service in the series of meetings we are holding. I can say that the members of the church in Phoenix are alive to the importance of the work we are doing here and not only pray for our success but give substantial encouragement to our cause. Charles Hendred who has been at the sisters hospital for some weeks seems to be on the mend gradually. He has many friends besides his kinsman Prof. Jenkins. L W. SANDERS Durango Notes. Mrs. Mary Ruth, an old settler, left here last Sunday evening for Silverton to found a new home. Archie Tatum of Kansas City and A. L. Rungan of Nashville, arrived in Durango last week to spend the vacation. The largest snow storm of the season visited Durango last Monday. Traffic was delayed for some time and considerable damage was done. Henry Purviss has purchased the residence of W. Edward. Indications are that this popular bachelor is to take unto himself a better half. In view of the Southern Pacific Ry's. early entrance into Durango, which will increase the demand for colored labor, a number of colored citizens are purchasing homes with the intent of becoming useful citizens in the community. Quite a confusion has been made in church circles here on account of the ingratitude shown to Rev. Smith by the evangelist which left our city last week for Silverton. We hope that she knew before she NO. 27. left here of the absence of Rev. Sanders, that she will do or say nothing that will be a hinderance of his mission work. RACE NEWS Gathered from Various Sources. Rev. M. M. Ponton of Atlanta, Ga., field agent for John C. Martin Educational Fund, has been appointed a member of the board of directors and general superintendent for the South. The amount of money which Dr. Ponton helps to disburse is fully $3,000,000. Monroe Nash, a white special laborer with clerical duties at the Norfolk, Va., navy yard, resigned his position recently because he did not like to work side by side with a Negro clerk, to whom he was required to pass his work. Nash's resignation was promptly accepted. Dr. Parkhurst, in last Sunday's sermon, said: "With the exception of the maintenance in the South of Negro slavery, there has been, I should say, nothing sadder in our history than the national attitude in which we try to stand as toward the little brown people of the Philippine Islands." Ernest A. Adkins and G. H. Mitchell, real estate dealers at Greensboro, N. C., control about $250,000 worth of property, and are the only colored men engaged in the business. There are five colored physicians, two druggists, one dentist and many minor business enterprises that promise well for the future. Richard Allen, a colored porter in the First National Bank, of Kansas City, Mo., twenty years ago he swept out the room and made ready for the bank's opening. He is the only man who has been on the bank's pay roll every day since its history. A few months ago the bank learned that there was a mortgage of $800 against his little home. On its twentieth anniversary, March 1st, the directors presented Mr. Allen with a deed of release with the mortgage cancelled. With skin and flesh dropping from his body, a 7-year-old son of William H. Ball, colored, rushed back into the burning house last Friday and brought out one of the children, a lad 3 years old. He then ran back into the flames and rescued the youngest child—a baby. The boy died from his injuries Saturday. Ball and his wife, who reside in Fauquier Co., Va., had left the three children (Continued to 4th page) Trust to Nature. #& -BTCRS RADY AMSTICARS, DOR. en and women, are thin, pale and puny, with poor circulation, because they have ill- treated their stomachs by hasty eating or too much eating, by consuming alco- holic beverages, or by. too close confine- ment to home, office or factory, and in con- Sequence the stomach must’ be treated in @ natural way before they can rectify their earlier mistakes. ‘The muscles in many such people, in fact in every weary, thin and thin-blooded person, do thele work with great difficulty.

It is necessary to prepare the stomach for the work of taking up from the food what is necessary to make good, rich, red blood.

Hanna of Denver, died at Denver, March 22d, at the age of ninety-four years and six months. In the stirring days before the Civil War Mr, Munger was an active abolitionist and through- out his entire life he was a strong be- lever in prohibition. He leaves seven children, three sons and four daugh- ters, whose average age is over sixty years. F. S.

Representative Brooks last week called upon the Japanese minister and advised him that many Colorado citi zens desire to contribute to the relict of the starving Japanese. Mr. Brooks was informed that any contributions would be appreciated by the Japanese government, which already has re- ceived nearly $100,000 from Americans. Contributions should be sent to the Japanese minister in Washington, J. J. McEachern and John Varley, who attempted to defraud the North: western Life Insurance Company out of $8,000, were sentenced in the Dis- trict Court at Cripple Creek to from nine and one-half to ten years in the penitentiary.

Sugar beets, alfalfa and other crops are raised on the ranch. ‘The purchasers have secured perpetual water rights on the prop: erty. About ten years ago Mr. Bent bought the place for about half the gain he has sold it for. Spontaneous combustion of 40,000 pounds of corn stareh is believed to have caused a fire in the plant of the Western candy factory in Denver on the night of Mareh 22d, which almost totally wrecked the three-story brick structure and threatened the entire block, entailing a loss of nearly $200,- 000 t6 the building and_ perishable stocks of the Hewitt Candy Company, the Colorado Saddlery Company, the Western laundry, the Western paper box factory and ‘the Western Candy Company.

When a detective went to serve the warrant upon Mr. Perkins he found that a writ of habeaus corpus had al- ready been obtained from Justice Greenbaum of the State Supreme Court, and the matter was immedi ately ’ taken out of the magistrate’s hands. Mr. Perkins appeared before Justice Greenbaum, and at the request of hig counsel the hearing in the case was ad: journed until Friday. Mr. Perkins was paroled in the custody of his personal attorney, Lewis A. Delafield. ‘The warrant for Mr. Perkins’ arrest was applied for by District Attorney Jerome. Magistrate Moss would not act, however, until affidavits were filed in the case, These were presented to him Wednesday. ‘They wer signed by Darwin P. Kingsley, vice president of the New York Life; Edmund D, Ran- dolph, treasurer of the company, and ‘Thomas A. Buckner, also a vice pres! dent. Mr. Perkins’ counsel admitted to Justice Greenbaum that Mr. Perkins had advanced the sum named to Mr. Bliss upon the request of the late John A. McCall, president of the New York Life Insurance Company, and was aft erward reimbursed through the action of the company’s finance committee. It was contended that Mr. MeCall had executive authority to order the payment, and that if any crime was committed it was participated in by every member of the finance commit tee present when the matter was atted upon. PLAN FOR LEASING. Recommended by the Interior Depart inane, ment. Washington.—The Interior Depart ment has submitted to Congress the draft of a bill providing a plan for leas. ing public grazing lands of the United States and recommended its passage. The bill as drawn authorizes the sec retary of the interior to withdraw from public entry lands deemed by him de sirable and to lease them for grazing purposes, giving small stockmen pret erence, for terms not exceeding five years, at a rental to be fixed bythe secretary. At the expiration of the leases the secretary is to reclassify the lands and exclude from the grazing area tracts which should be subject to homestead or other forms of entry. The proceeds of the grazing fees shall be turned into the reclamation fund, to be used to carry on the work ‘upon projects which have been de- cided desirable, but for which there 4s insufficient money available in the re- clamation fund. In submitting the bill the Interior Department called attention to the fact that a number of irrigation en- terprises have been found feasible, but that the reclamation fund is not large enough to provide for all of these pro- jects, and the suggestion is made that the proceeds from the rental of graz ing lands would not only provide such funds, but would tend to preserve the range and give opportunity for its im- provement. Among the projects men- tioned by the department which might be aided by the passage of the bill are: Bear river, Utah; Grand river, Colorado; Goshen Hole, Wyoming; Du: bois, Idaho, and Las Vegas, New Mex- ico WEATHER FORECASTS.

Mr. Moore had been joked hard by Job B. Hedges, when he arose and got per: mission to add to his speech, already delivered. He then said: “The weather bureau believes that for the first time in the history of me- teorolggical science it has within its grasp the scfentifie basis of long range weather forecasting—that is, forecasts of the character of the month to come. “The details are not yet complete, and the system will not be adopted for several months to come. “It may be possible, and I believe it will be, to tell you New Yorkers and members of the Maritime Exchange before this time next year what the character of the coming month will be.” ‘Mr. Moore said after the dinner that he had not intended to make this an- nouncement at this time, but had planned to give it first to tho public through the scientific publications, Bla Pitecat Johnstown.

The time of registration begins today (Saturday) and the duty lies before each voter not to wait until the last moment or submit to the persuasion of some steering committee to get you to register but put your name at the head of the list of qualified voters and thus taking time by the forelock vote the ticket that means most for the interest of the city and yourself. THE PEOPLES SUNDAY ALLIANCE The Peoples Sunday Alliance is the most popular organization in the West and is constantly growing in esteem of the public. The reason for this is the time of meeting, (Sunday afternoon) everybody is at leisure and the fine programs that are given to its patrons. The speaker last Sunday being especially attractive as evidenced by the massive audience that crowded the hall and literally hung upon every word uttered. The subject was "The Power of Thought" and the speaker was Rev. Nona L. Brooks a disciple of the Higher Thought school. This new cult is making many disciples in Denver. It is a fascinating and instructive study capable of enlarging ones range of observations and investigation destined to change many erronous views and doctrines which now holds many willing and ambitious souls in bondage, A hearty invitation could well be extended Miss Brooks or any member of her school to come again and throw new light on many old problems. The Alliance is not afraid of the power revealed by the New Thought Doctrine. POLITICAL INVESTIGATION Last week we called special attention in these columns to the A. B. C. of politics. Our object was not to do the political thinking for our readers or to boost or steer for either of the contesting parties, but our purpose is to set our readers in a position to make some investigation and do some thinking along independent lines. No paper or persons ought to do for you what you are able to do for yourself. Very few of the present voters of our race have ever studied Political Government or Civil Government in any form. The children now attending the public schools are making acquaintance with this science as laid down in the Text books, but the grown up voter must get his knowledge of government either theoretically from experience or from discussion and debate or from partisan newspapers or else vote just because he can or because a certain friend or party demands that he vote this way. It is clearly that a man with such a vague idea as that --- of the ballot is not worthy of it, indeed the ballot in such hands is a weapon of defense and not of protection and a menace to the public welfare. The object of the COLORADO STATESMAN in these articles is to show to the voters of our race, many who are women and some voting for the first time the A. B. C. of politics. The first requisite therefore of intelligent voting is "Independence" by independence, we do not mean arrogance or presumption but a desire to know, "What are the issues of the campaign?" "What are the measures the people are asked to decide by their ballots" "Who are the men you are asked to put into office by your suffrage." It is easy to be seen if one is biased or neglect at this point their whole political vision will be obscured and their vote will represent nothing but class. It is the unthinking voting that makes our cities so corrupt. The Power of Imitation. DENVER, COLO., MARCH 16, '06. Editor COLORADO STATESMAN: Sir:—Please allow me space in your valuable paper for the follow- mg few lines: The White House wedding is over and now in the rush of busy things almost entirely forgotten, Alice Roosevelt has become plain Alice Longworth, respected wife of a Congressman but no longer the focus point for proprietary interest of the whole people. Now when the point of curiosity has ceased, up comes a new organization among Denver's colored elite with the laudable purpose of giving a mock wedding and reproducing by way of imitation the white house affair, for the benefit of somebody or something. I am not informed which. It has one redeeming feature however "Social equality" cannot be charged against it for it is purely a Negro affair; but almost every thing else in the catalogue can be laid at their door. First the name, Progressive club. It seems that the progress is only ridiculous and backward, that time, money and strength should be spent in an undertaking that can do nobody any good or benefit the race but tends to foster pride, vanity and ostentatious display of glad rags, a thing in which our people are already past masters, Second, the apeing after white folks in their fastidious display. The power of imitation is greatly developed in the Negro but the thing deplored is that our imitation is on the side of the vices and not the virtues of the Caucasians. We imitate the whites in their leisure, in their cloths and society functions but not on their constructive side. We imitate their follies but not their serious endeavors. The arts, sciences, inventions and discoveries find but few echoes in us. Their uncommon sense, modesty, dignity and high breeding is entirely lost sight of but their social functions are imitated to the letter, for instance we often see in the columns of our press that Miss—— beautifully entertained Mr.—— at dinner last Sunday. Now of what importance is it to the public that Miss—— had any dinner at all, and still less does it care who ate the dinner or what was on the bill of fare or how many courses was served and who served it. Progressiveness does not mean display or advertisement, folly or fun, it means an advanced movement in substantial things which will increase intelligence bettering our condition and helping us onward in the struggle for position, power and respect of all men.

Stonecypher, a white man, who was tried for criminal assault upon a Negro woman, has been sentenced to twenty years by a jury. The case was the center of much sensational interest during the week. Stonecypher's wife and little children were in the court room, and heard most of the evidence. His wife still remains true to him.—Ex. We present the above clipping to show the vast contrast between a white man and a black man when a woman is outraged. If that had been a Negro and a white woman he would have been burned to death, but as it was a white man and a colored woman he only received a light sentence and had a fair and impartial trial by jury. Have the mills of God ceased to grind?—Wichita Searchlight Speaking of the alleged Negro problem Dr. R. S. MacArthur, a leading Baptist preacher of New York, said, as reported in the New York Evening Post: "I am opposed to the peaceful colonization, as advocated for the Negro, at present, because it is 350 years behind the times. It is entirely impracticable. Who is going to say who shall be colonized—the Negro or the white man? Who has the authority? The scheme is ridiculous. When I speak to a Negro I feel like saying to him: 'You have a better right to be in this country than I have; you are the owners of this country.' I came to this country in 1863. The Negro has been here almost from the time the country was discovered. I have no ancestors here; the Negro has thousands. There are thousands of white men whom I would not have at my table, but there are hundreds of Negroes that I would be glad to have dine with me. My advice to the Negro is, go out first and get a bank roll; make the white man honor your money; avoid bitterness of feeling; don't play policy; be honest; and eventually you will be on an equal plane with your white brethren." The first Sunday in April Dr. Chas. D. Douglas will have been pastor of Central Baptist church one year.

BALLAD OF THE BATTLESHIP --- KOREA LAND OF SORROW IN SHANGHAI'S MIXED COURT WINNING OF THE WEST CONTRAST IN TWO LIVES "With stately stride I breast the tide, and make for the open sea, and with canvas strained sheath To where the sea gulls flee. My timbers creak as if to speak And where the owl they feel; My strenuous sail will breast the gale, Secure on secure keel. "They've chained me up in the harbor And shackled me to the shore. Like a caged wail I shrieked for help. They taunted me the more. Through scorching days—long weary ways I tooned insane; As bound by bands on alien strands I chafed in bitter pain." "Oh ard, it was to see the ships Screw by with spreading sail; The pilot board the throat Dance with the boisterous gale. The frowning frigates fearsome face Loom like a leopard in full chase. Whilst I lay rotting in disgrace To eat my heart and rail! "At last they took me out to sea Across the moaning bar; I felt the sailing free Beneath the knilding stair. The land flew by us like a dream. "There are brass men, and wooden men, and cowhide men, in all lands and among all nations, so also in Korea; but taken one by one and as a whole, there is no race where there exists a more sensitive nature or a keener appreciation of the feelings of others," says a writer in the Seoul Press Weekly. "As for theaters, there are none, and Korea has no pit or dress circle, but yet every man plays to the galleries for all that he is worth and the manner in which he succeeds in his part is to him everything. We, from the west, are rude and careless in comparison. We move about without ceremony and think even to hold our heads up when our trousers are puffed at the knees and our shoes lack blacking, but not so the Korean.

"His is a life of ceremony and his Last December's riots in Shanghai called the attention of the world to that unique institution, the Shanghai mixed court. The following is from the pen of the Shanghai Times police reporter, written a few days after the riots: "Magistrate Kwan and Mr. J. H. Arnold, the American assessor, presided at the mixed court yesterday. Mr. King was not present, it being understood that an 'important mission,' coupled with the failure of the laundryman to return certain necessary garments in time, prevented him from attending the sitting. The court wore its usual calm, quiet and dignified aspect reminiscent of preriotous times, and no armed guard was present. The various members of the force, having found that large, heavy service revolvers bulge the pockets and spoil the set of their smart, natty uniforms, had come unarmed, evidently intending to rely upon their good right hands and the justice of their cause in case of a recurrence of unpleasantness. The Northwest territory, out of which were carved the states of Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Michigan and Wisconsin, became the quick and steady goal of immigration from New England, and that New England stream into the west has been so constant and so great that there has long been vastly more of New England west of the Hudson river than east of it. To-day we are indeed seeing strong counter currents. As there are New England societies in many western cities, made up of men whose memories turn back fondly to the old home and whose steps also turn thither more and more in Old Home week, so now associations of men of western birth are multiplying in our eastern cities. New York has a large Ohio society and we hear of the annual Iowa dinner and Illinois dinner in the metropolis, and Boston now has her own western society, organized last year, with already 100 members. The old town of Rutland, Mass., has An American father had two daughters, and when he died he left each of them a large fortune. One of them said to herself, I like society, I like titles, and as there are no titles in America I will cast my lot in foreign lands. As she was rich and attractive, it was not long before a titled gentleman from France offered her his hand in marriage. She accepted, the marriage ceremony was performed, and she went with her titled husband to Paris, opened a palace, and went in for all the enjoyments of French society. We shall not speak of the many troubles which befell her and the distress which her titled husband brought upon herself and members of her family in America. But the uph shot of it is that the count has spent up to this time something like $8,000,000 of her estate, and besides has so outraged her feelings by his attentions to another woman that she has brought suit for divorce. the other daughter said. I love the Green hills and trees where branches gleam. The sitting boughs whose leaves did seem to speed me from afar. And now I plow the murmuring main And head for home at last. Like a panting bird my breast is stirred, My long exile is past. My chainless soul has full control, And I walk away. And I can roam from pole to pole, And revel in the spray. At Santiago's wind-swept shore I smashed the strength of Spain, My heart of oak their fury broke, And swept them from the main. What breathed them their bright When raked with the shot and shell. My bulldog pluck of brought me luck And brought me safe through hell! How cool, how fresh the breezes blow, And fan my frowning face, And every reef and rock I know As round the world I chase.

High on the Worcester county hills, so salubrious that it was chosen by common consent as the best place for our state sanitarium for consumptives, the central town of the state, Rutland, was the home of Gen. Rufus Putnam, and from there he went out to found the state of Ohio. A second prominent "cradle" was Danvers and the region roundabout the immediate sphere of the influence of Rev. Manasseh Cutler, Putnam's coworker, but it is right to give the home of Putnam the pre-eminent place in our celebrations of the beginning of the movement of New England into the west. Putnam's old house in Rutland still stands, well preserved, secured as a memorial a few years ago through the efforts of Speaker Hoar and other enthusiasts, and with its rooms admirably restored and filled with an interesting historical collection, it is visited each year by hundreds of people from the west and east alike.—Boston Transcript. simple life best, and I will consecrate myself, my talents, my mind, my womanhood and my fortune to the good of humanity. From that day she has found her pleasures in doing good. She has never been ostentious; she has never paraded herself before the public; she has found no time for the frivolities of society, for she has been too busy in good works for such diversions. If she had any desire for a title, save that which belongs to every true American woman, the public at least had no evidence of it, and yet she has a title. She is known throughout the length and breadth of the land as our uncrowned American queen, and that title, which has been voluntarily bestowed upon her by the American public, is a title of honor more rich and worthy than any which has been gained by inheritance or by marriage.

PROBLEM IN DIETING EVIL IN TOO GREAT VARIETY AT MEALS. Human Stomach Not Adapted to the Digestion of an Excessive Number of Different Kinds of Food Stuffs—Simplicity to Be Preferred. While variety is necessary to promote appetite and good digestion, the stomach may be easily overworked by an excessive number of different kinds of food stuffs taken at a single meal. Animals which are adapted to complicated and varied food stuffs, like the sheep, the goat and the cow, which, in the course of the morning's grazing, may swallow a hundred or more different kinds of herbs, have complicated stomachs. The same is true of predatory fishes, which are often provided with more than half a dozen different stomachs for the performance of their complicated digestive work. A whale has seven stomachs. Man, with a single stomach, often sits down to a feast at which the whole world of appetites and stomachs might find ample satisfaction and occupation. For example, taking an ordinary bill of fare for illustration, we find dishes sufficient in variety to occupy the seven-stomach power of the whale's digestion. There are meats of various sorts for the meat-digesting stomach of the dog; there are nuts and fruits for the fruit and nut digesting stomach of the monkey; grass and herbs for the four stomachs of the cow and the goat—variety enough to tax the digestive power of thirteen stomachs! Yet man sits down to such a task with his one small stomach, expecting to enjoy himself. Whatever pleasure he may elicit by the long procession of vials as they slip by his palate on the way to his stomach, is certain to be more than offset by the after pains of indigestion, when this unseemly conglomeration gathered from the bills of fare of all the beasts of creation, becomes, a few hours later a seething, fermenting, putrescent mass, swarming with myriad germs, emitting disgusting odors, and generating polsons of various properties and potencies. There is only one animal on the face of the earth capable of digesting such a dinner, and that is the woodchuck, which, according to Prof. Draper, has fourteen stomachs. Simplicity is the cornerstone of good digestion. The normal appetite is easily satisfied with a small number of foods simply and wholesomely prepared. Variety is proper enough, but the number of kinds taken at a single meal should be limited to three or four. If the bill of fare is confined to nuts, fruits and cereals, this question becomes less important, for the reason that all fruits agree. Cereals are practically identical in their relation to digestion, and nuts are likewise practically uniform in their relation to digestion and nutrition; but when vegetables are added, substances which are very different in character, and requiring very different digestive action, are introduced, and the greatest care must be exercised to avoid harmful results from the presentation to the stomach of a too complex and arduous task. eee q Mrs. Sallie McDonald left this week for Vancouver, B.

Balloon and Automobile Project. Walter Wellman, who is to make another dash toward the pole, this time in a dirigible balloon with automobile sledges and a metallic boat aboard for use in the event of accidents or untoward weather, arrived here from France to-day, says a New York dispatch. He has come to arrange for the construction of his automobile sledges and agree upon the selection of five men who are to accompany him on the expedition, one of whom is to be appointed by the weather bureau in Washington. "You must understand," said Mr. Wellman, "that our dirigible balloon is to be no toy. It is ten times larger than the largest Santos-Dumont and bigger than the Lebaudy ship, which has just been ordered by the French government."

The United States floating dry dock Dewey, en route to the naval station at Olongapo, Philippine Islands, left the Canary Islands March 18th, proposing to call at Gibraltar. Six hundred Macedonian emigrants left Belgrade, Servia, March 17th, for the United States by way of Flume, All of them possessed sufficient funds to permit of their entering the United States. Directly after the arrival of the new Japanese ambassador at Washington, Mr. Hioki, the first secretary of the embassy, will leave for Japan on leave of absence. Mr. Hioki, it is expected, will be appointed head of legations. The first smoking car ever reserved for women in Great Britain left a big London terminus a few days since for Liverpool. The windows bore a label reading: "Ladies' Smoking." The innovation attests the spread of smoking among English women during recent years. Fire in the Haverhill, Massachusetts, Manual Training School and High School Annex imperiled more than 150 boys and girls, and, although mainly because of coolness and generalship of the teachers, no lives were lost, although a few were slightly injured. The only robbery occurring on the Chicago Northwestern near Galena, according to an official of the road, was that of the Tower W robbery, near De Kalb, forty miles from Galena. That robbery occurred in 1899 and netted the perpetrators in the neighborhood of $40,000. A score of original manuscripts of famous works of Nathaniel Hawthorne were damaged by a fire which destroyed the home of his son, Julian Hawthorne, in Yonkers, N. Y., a few days ago. Several of the manuscripts were destroyed and others were badly damaged by water. On March 24th M. Jaques Faure of the Aero Club de France made a balloon voyage from St. Cloud across the Vosger mountains and the Rhine, and descended the next morning at Galdenbach, in Hesse Nassau.

On a recent voyage from New York to Cherbourg and Hamburg the steamer Deutschland maintained a continuous communication by wireless telegraph with the station at Lizard Head, Cornwall, from a distance of 2,000 miles out from Lizard Head, until she reached Plymouth. Three men are in Belem prison, Mexico, under sentence of death for having killed in Toluca, capital of the state of Mexico, an old woman whom they believed to be a witch. Belief in witchcraft prevails among the lower classes in the rural regions and many crimes have resulted from the superstition. The most unique motor in this country will be an armored auto which a New Mexico mining man, C. S. Henshaw, is having made in Boston for use in the Southwest in the transportation of gold from his mines. The machine is to be built on the plans of the German military auto, armored, and will carry two rapid fire guns The American church of St. Paul in Rome was crowded Sunday, March 25th, on the occasion of the thirteenth anniversary of its consecration. Bishop H. C. Potter, who read the service, preached. Bishop Potter's father celebrated the first service in the American church in Rome in 1859, when it was held in a private house. That the high prices of meat in Germany have driven some of the kaiser's people to eating dogs and cats, as well enormous quantities of horseflesh, is the startling revelations of the Prussian slaughter house statistics just published. In the course of the last year 97,000 horses and 1,072 dogs were butchered for human consumption. It is stated that Swift & Co. will build in a million dollar packing plant at Portland, Oregon. The output will be 500 cattle, 1,000 sheep and 1,000 hogs per day and employment will be provided for 1,000 men. The purpose of the plant is to enable Swift & Co. to enter the Alaskan and Oriental markets, besides furthering their interests in the Northwest. As the first motorman to be convicted of manslaughter for the sacrificing of human life as a result of his negligence, Albert Orman has been sentenced to imprisonment for ten years by Judge Foster in the General Sessions Court in New York City. Orman was conductor of a car that hit a mail wagon, killing Bernard McDonald, the driver. According to a letter written by Governor Chamberlain of Oregon to President Roosevelt, serious trouble is brewing between the sheepmen of Oregon and Washington. The letter states that three-quarters of that part of Wenaha forest reserve, located in Oregon, has been allotted to Washington sheep raisers, while Oregon men are given only one quarter. On the other hand no Oregon sheepman is given any of the range in that part of the reserve located in Washington.

Dall DeWeese of Lincoln park, who is one of the greatest hunters and explorers of Colorado, has just returned from a trip to southern Mexico and has brought back with him six specimens of mountain sheep of the species Ovis Nelsoni, peculiar to that region, says the Canon City correspondent of the Denver Republican. Mr. DeWeese has now one of the most complete collections of mountain sheep in the world, including the Ovis Dalli of the Arctic regions, the Ovis Montani of the United States and the specimens just secured from southern Mexico. It is Mr. DeWeese's intention to present the collection to the Colorado Museum of Natural History in Denver, to which it will be a most valuable acquisition, as all the species of the mountain sheep of North America are rapidly becoming extinct. Mr. DeWeese has hunted big game in almost every country, from the equator to the Arctic circle, including Alaska, British America, India, Manchuria, China and Japan. He has yet two hunting trips to make before he has completed a plan formed in early life. One is to the wilds of Africa and the other to the frozen north, far beyond the Arctic circle.

Map MIDDLE LIFE A Time When Women Are Susceptible to Many Dread Diseases—Intelligent Women Prepare for it. Two Relate their Experiences. Mrs. A.E.G.

I had dizzy spells, sick headaches, and was very nervous. ANTI-GRIPINE IS GUARANTEED TO CURE GRIP, BAD COLD, HEADACHE AND NEURALGIA. I won't sell Anti-Gripine to a dealer who won't Guarantee It.

The "change of life" is the most critical period of a woman's existence, and the anxiety felt by women as it draws near is not without reason. Every woman who neglects the care of her health at this time invites disease and pain. When her system is in a deranged condition, or she is predisposed to apoplexy, or congestion of any organ, the tendency is at this period likely to become active—and with a host of nervous irritations make life a burden. At this time, also, cancers and tumors are more liable to form and begin their destructive work. Such warning symptoms as sense of suffocation, hot flashes, headaches, backaches, dread of impending evil, timidity, sounds in the ears, palpitation of the heart, sparks before the eyes, irregularities, constipation, variable appetite, weakness, inquietude, and dizziness, are promptly heeded by intelligent women who are approaching the period in life when woman's great change may be expected. Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound was prepared to meet the needs of woman's system at this trying period of her life. It invigorates and strengthens the female organism and builds up the weakened nervous system. For special advice regarding this important period women are invited to write to Mrs. Pinkham at Lynn, Mass., and it will be furnished absolutely free of charge. The present Mrs. Pinkham is the daughter-in-law of Lydia E. Pinkham, her assistant before her decease, and for twenty-five years since her advice has been freely given to sick women.

Pinkham's Compound did for Mrs. Hyland and Mrs. Hinkle: Dear Mrs. Pinkham:— HARDESTY'S LEMON Chemical Analysis Shows HARDESTY'S EXTRACTS To Be Perfect HARDESTY'S VANILLA HARDESTY'S LEMON TO CURE THE GRIP IN ONE DAY ANTI-GRIPINE NAS NO EQUAL FOR HEADACHE "I wrote you for advice and commenced treatment with Lydia E.

WOMEN'S INTERESTS For the Younger Members. For young girls many new suits are shown in the various shades of gray. There is nothing prettier than gray for either young or old, and the jaunty short Etons or the trim pony coats are employed with excellent effect in making up girlish and stylish suits for misses and young women. The Peter Thompson suits are, however, as satisfactory and as modish as any dress a schoolgirl can wear, and if the young girls realize how much better and how much more stylish they appear in these sailor suits than they do in copies of their mother's or grandmother's gowns they would not be so desirous of looking older than their years and would cheerfully don these becoming, suitable and girlish suits. Unfortunately, they like to be thought grown up and nothing will do but that they should be replicas of older members of the family so far as clothes go. 1 Green camel's hair with white hair Green velvet trimmings. Some New Desserts. A delicious English tart is made by filling a deep baking dish with sliced apples, well sugared, covering with a thin, rich paste, and baking brown; this is to be eaten fresh, not quite cold, with cream and cheese. Canned apricots, drained of their juice, may be used instead of apples, says Harper's Bazar. A pretty dessert is made with a quart of rich custard for a basis, and for this the yolks of three eggs are to be used. When still hot half a box of gelatine, dissolved in cold water, is stirred in and the whole strained. Last of all, the stiff whites are to be folded in when the custard is cold, and the whole is put into a fancy mould on ice. When needed it will be found to be in three layers, the top one transparent jelly, the next custard, and the bottom one foamy white. Candied violets may be put around and on it, and whipped cream. Checked Voile Morning Gown. A very pleasing idea is a smart morning gown in checked volle. The color scheme is a practical one, suitable for a street gown of unusual smartness. Black and white is always good and very generally becoming. The body of the gown is of black and white checked volle. The bolero is original in design. According to the latest mode it is rather large, almost meeting upon Eton lines. A pretty fancy is the buttoned fichu-like ends which fasten upon the girdle with large velvet buttons. A wide collar gives breadth to the figure. This, as well as the tiny applied collar of embroidery, is outlined by white braid and Richelieu plaiting. Braid and plaiting likewise mark the skirt's devant and the wide cuffs. The skirt is a circular model. Two rows of braid and plaiting set above the hem form its trimming. Substitute for Chiffon Scarf. The delicately colored chiffon scarfs so much worn are not only expensive, and easily ruined, but come in so few shades that a substitute is gladly welcomed, particularly by those who like to have their garments always fresh. The long veils, made of chiffon, as are the scarfs, but costing much less, are worn by many girls, and have the additional advantage over the regular scarfs that they come in a much greater variety of colors. Adjusted so that the border is neatly hidden the effect is exactly the same, as if miladi wore a scarf, and she may have one for each gown, and renew them with much greater frequency without making a very large hole in her pocketbook. New Scarfs. Long, wire scarfs to throw lightly over the shoulders promise to be the distinguishing feature of light-colored toilettes this spring. Among the most seductive novelties which the early spring has up to now produced are charming floral scarfs in all manner of colors and varieties. Mounted on a foundation of mousselle de sole on fine crepe de chine, these scarfs are fashioned out of flowers in silk gauze, the petals sewn lightly together, so as to form a solid floral network. Large-petaled flowers, such as full-blown roses of all kinds, anemones, clematis and lilies, are most in favor, but clusters of hydrangeas, daisies and even forget-me-nots are effectively introduced against a background of chiffon. A brush dipped in salt water will clean bamboo furniture. A solution of salt and alcohol is excellent for rubbing on weak ankles. Books will keep better if exposed to the air than when shut in a bookcase. To remove a porous plaster quickly and painlessly try an application of alcohol. Cold tea cleanses oilcloth or linoleum. After the application polish with a little turpentine or linseed oil. Toast in Variety. Toast may also be used as a dessert at lunch, and there are a dozen ways in which its plainness may be improved upon. For the children trim all crust from the thin slices and place in the oven until a golden brown all through. Smother it in apple sauce or pour over the heated juice from canned fruits and serve cold with milk or cream. Dip the cut slices in a raw custard—one egg to a half pint of milk—and fry quickly with butter. Serve hot with butter and spiced sugar—this is variously known as German, French and nun's toast. Cut the slices in circles, saute quickly in butter; drop on each piece a large spoonful of mashed prunes, and serve with cream, whipped or plain. Stewed figs or any marmalade which is not too rich may also be used.—What to Eat. Useful Chiffon Taffeta For silk shirt waists and shirt-waist suits, and for the extra little dress of silk which "comes in" for a hundred uses all summer long (and spring, too), chiffon taffeta is making hosts of friends, either in plain colors or odd two-toned kinds, with little figures or blocks happening off and on the narrow stripes which make it up. Yet so perfectly are the two shades toned, and so nearly alike are they, that at a little distance the silk seems plain, except for the shimmer which plays over it—a shimmer which seeks out and reveals the color. WHILE THE TEA DREWS WHILE THE TEA DREWS Chenille fringe is noted on many white cloth gowns. Smooth satin crowns as a feature are marked on many of the spring hats. Braces of material to match the skirt are worn with the corset skirt over the lingerie blouse. For the theater there are little bo尔eros of silk musline covered with valenciennes ruffles and insertions. For morning wear smart little toques of fine straw or crin are trimmed with a single stiff wing in CALLING OR RECEPTION GOWNS. MILITARY The gown at the left is of black and white checked taffeta. The skirt is covered with a tunic, which is plaited over the hips, and bordered with tucks and a wide band of ecru gulpure, the latter edged with black taffeta. The blouse has a sort of plastron of the material, trimmed with the gulpure, edged with taffeta. The rosettes are also of black taffeta, bordered with little frills of the same, of which the straps are also made. The chemisette is of white silk, embroidered in green and black, and the jabot is of lace. The sleeves each form two puffs, and are finished at front or to one side and a bunch of ribon loops at the back. A soft gray walking hat is turned up on the left with a huge gray bird, whose bigness is almost grotesque. Most of the hats seem to be quite overcome by their trimmings. Tailored Wash Dresses The tailored wash dresses are worth a whole library of explanation. They are admirable in every way and they will be worn in a manner which will show that they are appreciated. They come in white linen, in blue linen, in tan and in the natural shades, as well as in pink and other colors. Girls' Russian Dress. If it is not school it is kindergarten, and anyway you fix it, the small girl needs frocks, and pretty ones, too. The coarser weaves of linen and crash are very popular with the younger generation, but for cold weather serge and challis come in for their share of good hard wear. Here is a little dress designed for a lad or lass and quite S free from difficulties for the home dressmaker. It is in one piece, having the broad sailor collar so youthfully becoming. A generous box plait forms a panel in front, making the small wearer appear tall, and its counterpart relieves the plainness of the back. Deep plaits stitched near the edges turn from the broad front plait and provide fullness for the shirt. A belt of the material or leather girdles the dress in long-waisted effect. When Baking Pies. Bake all very juicy pies in the hottest of ovens, placing them on the oven's bottom first to insure the browning of the under crust. Let these juicy pies cool, and reheat them before serving. This second heating seems to give the necessary crispness to the crust—a crispness that is harder to accomplish than in drier pies. To Clean Carpets To clean carpets, go over them once a week with a broom dipped in hot water to which a little turpentine has been added. Wring a cloth in the hot water and wipe under pieces of furniture too heavy to be moved. ```markdown ``` the elbows with ruffles of the material and lace. The girdle is of the black taffeta. The other gown is of old blue taffeta. The front breadth of the skirt is cut in one piece with the corset, which is slightly draped. The rest of the skirt is plaited over the hips and encircled at the bottom with tucks. The bolero is of English embroidery in black, over a foundation of blue, and is trimmed all around with a shaped band of the lace. The turnover collar and cuffs are of velvet, and the guimpe, jabot and sleeve ruffles are of lace.
