MONEY SAVED BY PATRONIZING MERCHANTS WHO ADVERTISE IN THIS PAPER. THE COUNTRY PARTY RACE COLORADO STATESMAN LABOR SHALL BE FREE THE JOURNAL OF THE STATE An Earnest Plea Made by a Prominent White Minister of the South. Advocates Fairness and Justice for the Black Man. VOL. XII. An Earn Made by a Prominent White M cates Fairness and Just Dr. J. B. Cranfill, a leading white minister of the South has this to say of the Negro: At the remarkable convention of Christian students held recently in Nashville, Tenn., one timid young woman arose and said: "I am going as a missionary to Africa to live and love and die." A great wave of applause followed this modest announcement. This was right. The Dark Continent, people as it is by millions of souls who have never so much as heard the name of Christ, it is worthy of all the efforts we can possibly put forth for its salvation. Let no word be gesture of discouragement ever be placed in the way of any heart that aspires to live and love and die in any of the needy fields of earth for work of the Son of God. I feel, however, that much of this talk about sending missionaries to Africa is sickly sentiment. Only a few hundred miles from the spot where this gentle maiden thus dedicated her life to Africa, three innocent Negroes have since been murdered and burned. This occurred only a few days ago in Springfield, Missouri, and it is stated that these mob murderers did their work unmasked in the bright glare of the electric lights. Africa is at our doors and this Africa is at home has ten folds greater claims upon us, as we look at it in one way, than has the other Africa, because the Africans here in the South were either once our slaves or are the descendants of ourselves. It is tenderly poetical to talk about sending missionaries to the other Africa and it stirs within us inexpressible emotions', but it does not quadrate well with the treatment that the native Southern Africans are receiving here at home. There is a reason for this wide-spread and vicious out-cry against the Negro. Of course the nameless crime that is committed by some members of the Negro race is in itself enough to incite the deadliest passion in the white man's heart. There is no sort of doubt that every man, white or black, who outrages innocent women ought to be speedily executed, but this should be done, not by mobs but by our regular constituted courts of law. I have nothing but the severest ceasure for that diabolism that seems to be increasing in our land which has for its object of attack our wives and daughters. There is not a man in all the land that feels more strongly these outrages than I feel them, but I do not believe that this crime of crimes is made better by adding thereto the deadly crime of murder. Every man who is executed by a mob is murdered. Every man who participates in this execution is a murderer. Every apologist for a mob murder is an accessory to the murder. The man who advocates mob violence is an anarchist, no matter what his pretensions or his position in society. We have reached a point that makes it necessary for every man who believes in the righteousness and dignity of the law to speak out as strongly as he can against the reign of the blood thirs and anarchistic mob. There was a custom among the American savages of killing every white man that they came upon. They made no distinction between the pale faces. Men, women and children alike were massacred, and the preacher, with Bible in his hand, perished with the man at whose belt hung the dripping scalp of Indians brave. In like manner a certain class of white men have become savages. Their savagery has been fashioned into a song, one of the lines of which reads this way: "All Coons Look Alike to Me." If a Negro is maltreated or murdered, it is a sufficient answer to say: "Oh, well it was nobody but a nigger." The white minister of God who weeps when he pleads for money with which to send missionaries to Africa is struck dumb when he confronted the savage attitude that his fellow white men assumed toward the Negro across the street.

Robinson, three Negroes arrested for wearing the emblem of the B. P. O. E., were not guilty of a misdemeanor. He discharged all three defendants. Judge Chadsey stated, however, that the Elks should have some means of enjoining the Independent Benevolent Protective Order of Elks of the World, a Negro organization, from using its emblem, and in his decision he stated that while he could not hold the prisoners guilty of a crime, he would advise Rochester Lodge of Elks to obtain an order from a higher court preventing any infringement in the use of the emblem. The three Negroes were arrested and charged with violation of section 674 of the penal code, which provides that any person not a member of organizations which are named, and of which the Elks is one, wilfully displaying the emblem of that organization, shall be guilty of a misdemeanor. A test was made of the case against Murry, and upon the decision in his favor all three were released. The Elks were represented by A. J. Hirsh an H. Perry Blodgett, both members of that order, and the prisoners had as counsel Thos. P. Mc Carrick of this city and J. Frank Wheaton, a Negro lawyer of New York.—Rochester Herald. NEGRO BOY MIND READER Orange, Texas—The people on the streets here were made to wonder at the great mental telepathic power exhibited by an 8-year-old Negro boy. The child would stand several feet from his father who would ask investigators to write the year, month and date of their birth on a piece of paper and the question would then be propounded to him. Only in the in- stance where the father misunderstood the figures did the child fail to call out the proper date. He was also able to give the time shown by any watch in the crowd. Many things were done by the child that made the people wonder. S. A. Berry, the father of the child resides in Lake Charles, La. He formerly lived in Orange. He claims that nine months ago the traits in the child were discovered. The little boy and little sister would get separate rooms and the boy would tell the color of any article asked about. GOOD ADVICE. White Glergyman Writes Briefly and to the Point. Having recently read different issues of the COLORADO STATESMAN, and being pleased with some of the statements therein, I wish to say a few things to the colored man through your columns. I was raised in the South and am a friend to the colored man. I wish to see you as a race prosperous and happy. What you are as a race and as individuals depends largely on your own actions. Senator Tillman is mistaken when he says the Negro has no soul. Certainly, you, like white men and women, have both souls and bodies and what you need to do is to take the proper care of both. To do this you must be honest, sober and industrious. Be a man. When you get a job of work "stay with it" and save your money. Act so that your employer can trust you in his absence. Take the papers and read them; but don't get radical on the race question. Keep yourself right before God and man and you will get along all right race question or no race question. Shun bad company. Don't drink or gamble but lay up something for rainy days and old age. Your friend respectfully, C. J. Spurlock. KNIGHTS OF PYTHIAS KNIGHTS OF PYTHIAS Gives $1,000 to Aid the Distressed California Members of the Organization. Charleston, W. Va., May 15. Sir J. L. Derrick, D. S. C.—Dear Sir and brother: Inclosed find check for $1,000, which has been contributed by the order for the relief of members of lodge and court at San Francisco. I have heard nothing from the lodge at San Jose since the disaster Can you tell me anything about it? You will acknowledge the receipt of this at once. Yours in F. C. and B., S. W. STARKS. S. C. BRAVE NEGRO BRIDE. Edward Collins, white, and his Negro wife, who live near Indian Springs, Washington county, Maryland, were in Hagerstown, recently, to see State's Attorney Long about the conduct of some of the neighbors of the couple. It is claimed that a number of persons from the mountains above Indian Springs planned to tar and feather Collins and his wife. When the leader of the crowd approached the house and knocked at the door he was confronted by the Negro woman, who opened fire on him with a revolver. He fled, as did also his waiting companions, the woman firing a number of shots after the fleeing party. The men left a pot of tar and a bag of feathers on the premises. Much feeling has developed against Collins and the woman, who was formerly Priscilla Pye, since they went to Chambersburg, Pa., two weeks ago and were married. The woman is the owner of a 150-acre farm. Grand Junction Notes. Rev. Redd is planning a business trip to Denver in a few days. The hot weather has come, in full force, but our nights are cool and pleasant. The political war horses have begun to rally their forces for the fall campaign. Salida is following in the wake of other cities and has organized a debating society. Dr. Howe of Salida made the run from Salida to the Junction Tuesday for his friend, George Smith. Grant Hamilton has accepted a position with the Royalty club, being favorably impressed with our city. Mrs. Mary Finley and niece, Dora Robinson, passed through here last week en route to Lake City, where they expect to reside. Grand Junction, Colo., June 11, 1906.—The fruit harvest of Grand valley will be by far the largest and finest that has ever been sold in Colorado. A stimrel carnival, composed of local talent, will play at Park Opera House June 14th. This show will take well and a large house is expected. Marcus Hines is sick, threatened with typhoid fever. Mr. Hines was to take a leading part in the Carnival minstrels and his sickness is sincerely regretted by the company and friends. Grand Master F. T. Brun of Denver is epected to visit Pinon Mesa Lodge No. 20 next week. This will be his first visit here and the fraternity awaits his coming with pleasure. NO. 38. A fire, cause unknown, at 1:30 Tuesday night totally destroyed a four-room house of Mrs. Lottie Scott. It was feared that two other of her houses would be devoured by the flames. Lee Williams has leased the dining room of the Western hotel, where he is prepared to serve the best meals that can be had in the city. Mr. Williams is a caterer of national reputation and will command a good patronage. If the Negroes who are crowded in large cities—we mean the respectable and industrious ones—would come to the small towns and go to the country, buy a few acres of land, or take up government land, there being hundreds of thousands of acres not yet settled upon, and become producers, not consumers only, they would be naturally thrown into business relations with merchants and all business men and command a far greater respect than they can possibly do by merely existing in large cities. The Carnation Art club will meet with Miss Anna O. Newman Friday and read and discuss some of the works of Paul Laurence Dunbar. This club is destined to be a great incentive for intellectual, mental and moral growth and means to elevate those who will, and those who will not, to see that they do not break into the cream of society. This is as it should be, for woman, lovely woman. If thou had no name, I would call you leader of man. The Colorado Statesman will note with pleasure the good accomplished. Yours, NOGNAL. RACE NEWS Gathered from Various Sources. Charlotte, N. C., June.—John Spencer Bassett, Ph. D., professor of chemistry in Trinity college, Durham, has resigned to accept a similar chair at Smith college, Northampton, Mass. About two and a half years ago Dr. Bassett wrote an article for a magazine, in which he asserted that, with the exception of Robert E. Lee, Booker T. Washington was the greatest man the south has produced in a hundred years. Jim Washington, an old Negro who was born and raised on a plantation near Hallettsville, Mo., has invented and obtained a patent on an improved cotton baling press. It is claimed by those who have examined the invention that it will revolutionize the present method of handling cotton. Instead of having to treat cotton to the two processes of ginning and baling will be done at one time. Cotton men are much interested in the invention.

Sterling, Ky. writes: "I have suffered with kidney and bladder trouble for ten years past." "Last March I commenced using Peruna and continued for three months. I have not used it since, nor have I felt a pain. "I believe that I am well and I therefore give my highest commendation to the curative qualities of Peruna." Pe-ru-na for Kidney Trouble. Mrs. Geo. H. Simser, Grant, Ontario, Can., writes: "I had not been well for about four years. I had kidney trouble, and, in fact, felt badly nearly all the time." "This summer I got so very bad I thought I would try Peruna, so I wrote to you and began at once to take Peruna and manalin. "I took only two bottles of Peruna and one of Manalin, and now I feel better than I have for some time. "I feel that Peruna and Manalin cured me and made a different woman of me altogether. I bless the day I picked up the little book and read of your Peruna." It is the business of the kidneys to remove from the blood all poisonous materials. They must be active all the time, else the system suffers. There are times when they need a little assistance. Peruna is exactly this sort of a remedy. It has saved many people from disaster by rendering the kidneys service at a time when they were not able to bear their own burdens. ST.

ST. CHARLES CONDENSING CO., St. Charles, Ill. DAY 15 FY KILLER FLYING MACHINE CIRCLES WASHINGTON MONUMENT AND WHITE HOUSE. ALSO LANDS AT THE CAPITOL Lincoln Beachy Creates a Sensation Among the Law Makers—Government Business Supended to Watch Skillful Aeronaut. Washington.—Lincoln Beachy, in a flying machine with which he circled the Washington monument, the White House and capitol, successfully held up government business for practically two hours Thursday and gave the general staff of the army some new ideas about the use of a dirigible balloons in time of war. As he sailed across the Potomac his device looked like the empty but inflated casing of a gigantic bologna sausage, with the framework of a dory depending. He made first for the monument, but alighted in the grounds because one of the bamboo' poles in his car had broken. This was quickly repaired and he then ascended, being tossed into the air by his assistants, who followed him through the course in an automobile. In a spiral course he circled the monument twice and then having risen above it, started for the White House at a twelve-mile-per-hour gait. There was almost a dead calm and after hovering for a few seconds over the grounds to the south of the executive mansion, he dropped easily to the lawn, avoiding the trees and landing within 100 yards of the south entrance. President Roosevelt was invisible at the time, but Mrs. Roosevelt and the children were at home and watched the proceeding with wonder. Again the automobile followers came to the front and the whole machine was borne on the shoulders of four men to the back door of the White House, whence Beachy sent his card inside. The President, who had returned from the commencement exercises at Georgetown College, did not appear, but the children of the family were in great eagerness. Several visitors who were waiting to see the President, rushed out upon the lawn to inspect it, and for half an hour the place was animated, while without the iron fence of the lot people were banked a dozen deep. Business in the State, War and Navy building and in the Treasury building was closed and the roofs were black with government employees straining their ears to get a sight of the queer monster. Finally, after a vain wait to see the President, who refused to appear, the machine was again launched, rose like a bird through the trees, poised for a second above the roof of the White House, where it described a circle almost within its own radius, and then started for the capitol, following the line of Pennsylvania avenue. In its course Beachy showed off its paces, diving or shooting upward at stiff angles, or cutting figure eights on a horizontal plane. When he arrived at the capitol business was suspended and senators, representatives and the people watched him circle the dome twice and then come to a safe landing in the capitol grounds. Here there was another meet of the curious and it was only after a considerable lapse of time that the aeronaut escaped and retraced his way across the Potomac to the Virginia side. Army and navy officers who examined the craft during its alightments expressed surprise at its simplicity and even crudeness of construction, and members of the staff who have been disgusted with the failures of results of the government investment of more than $50,000 in aeroplane experiments. Thursday are inclined to believe that government expenditure in dirigible ballons would be well spent. Lincoln Beachy is the assistant of Roy Knabenshue, the builder of the flying machine which Beachy operated, and which is now on exhibition in this city. Joint Statehood Campaign Denver.—A Republican special from Santa Fe says: "The passage of the Hamilton-Beveridge statehood bill by both Houses was received here without any demonstration. At present there prevails a spirit of indifference throughout the territory as to the question, but both parties will align themselves in favor of joint statehood with Arizona and the Republican as well as Democrat leaders are preparing for a vigorous campaign. The opposition to joint statehood had dwindled now that every chance for separate statehood has passed away and New Mexico will give an overwhelming majority in favor of the present statehood proposition, believing that Arizona will November 6th fall into line, although with a much closer vote. Brooks Saves Coal Test. Washington—The item in the sundry civil bill making an appropriation for the geological survey coal testing work was stricken out on a point of order Thursday. Representative Brooks immediately redrafted the provision and asked its adoption, whereupon Mr. Dalzell moved to increase the appropriation suggested by Brooks to $250,000. Dalzell's suggestion was agreed to, and Brooks' amendment was then put back in the bill. This work of coal testing is highly important to Colorado, where some most successful experiments have been made in times past. Lower Railway Rates. Omaha.—A conference of the passenger officials of the Union Pacific, Southern Pacific and Santa Fe lines here Thursday resulted in the announcement of a reduction of passenger rates per mile in six Western states and two territories. In Idaho the rate will be three cents instead of four cents on main lines; in portions of Wyoming and Colorado three instead of four on the Union Pacific; in Nevada, Arizona and New Mexico the rate will be four instead of five and six; in Utah, on certain main lines, three instead of four. The reductions take effect July 1st. Asked by Delegation of San Francisco Business Men. Washington.—A delegation of San Francisco business men in Washington to enlist government aid for that stricken city, has called on President Rossevelt to present to him their plans. The delegation was headed by Senator Flint of California. Franklin Lane and Judge Morrow, and was accompanied to the White House by several members of the California congressional delegation. The delegation went from the White House to the capitol, where the members discussed the subject with senators and representatives. The city of San Francisco has issued bonds for $17,000,000. About $4,000,000 of these bonds have been sold. They bear three and one-half per cent. interest. It is proposed by the delegation that the secretary of the treasury accept the remaining $13,000,000 bonds as security for national bank deposits. This will relieve the situation in San Francisco materially. The proposition appeals strongly to both the President and Secretary Shaw. It already has been considered by the President and secretary of the treasury and may be accepted. Another plan suggested by the delegation is that the government loan $10,000,000 to the people of San Francisco on the security of clearing house banks of the city, the loan to extend for ten years. Assurance is given by the delegation that the principal and interest will be met promptly and that the government cannot lose a dollar by the transaction. The money is to be used in providing suitable shelter for homeless citizens before next winter. The money, it is suggested, would be handled by the clearing house banks of San Francisco on just such security as they ordinarily would accept from patrons. It would be necessary for Congress to authorize such a loan. Whether the President will recommend to Congress that the necessary legislation be enacted has not been determined yet. The President indicated that he would take it under consideration. The House committee on appropriations will hear the California relief committee Thursday morning regarding the desire for federal aid in the restoration of San Francisco. No form of legislation has been introduced and until the matter takes more definite shape in the way of a recommended proposal, none is likely to be. Those who have canvassed the situation in the House say there will be difficulty in securing any legislation for relief. Opposition to action of this kind is based on the fear of future bad results which may follow the establishment of the precedent of extending government aid other than for the temporary relief of an afflicted and suffering community. HAYWOOD AND MOYER Re-Elected by Western Federation of Miners. Denver.—Delegates to the annual convention of the Western Federation of Miners have demonstrated their belief in the innocence of President Moyer and Secretary-Treasurer Haywood of the charges of conspiring to murder former Governor Steunenberg of Idaho by re-electing them to office. The officers are now in an Idaho jail and are likely to be for some months. In the case of these officers an obstacle in the constitution was overcome by actually not electing successors. The rule is that the officers shall be elected from the floor of the convention. Another rule is that officers shall continue to hold over until their successors are elected. Messrs. Moyer and Haywood simply hold over. C. E. Mahoney of the Mill and Smelterman's union at Butte was elected vice-president and is to be the real head of the organization for the present. He succeeds J. C. Williams, who was also a candidate. Besides the officers named above, the following executive board was named: District No. 1 (Arizona, New Mexico and California)—Marion W. Moor of McCabe, Arizona (re-elected). District No. 2 (Idaho, Oregon and Washington)—L. J. Simpkins of Ward- ner, Idaho (re-elected). District No. 3 (Montana and Wyoming) —J. C. Lowney of Miners' union No. 1 of Butte. District No. 4 (Colorado and Utah) —Frank Schmelzer of Silverton, Colo- rado (re-elected). District No. 5 (South Dakota, Minne- sota, Wisconsin and Michigan)—James Kirwin of Terry, S. D. (re-elected). District No. 6 (British Columbia)— Ernest Mills of Greenwood, British Columbia (re-elected). GUILTY OF REBATING. Four Large Packing Houses Convicted at Kansas City. Kansas City.—Armour & Co., Swift & Co., Cudahy & Co, and the Nelson Morris Packing Company were found guilty in the United States District Court here Tuesday of accepting concessions from the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy railway on export shipments on packing house products. Judge McPherson of Iowa, the presiding judge, stated that sentence would not be assessed until the case against the Burlington railway, which is charged with granting the concessions to the packers, is concluded. The Burlington's trial was begun Tuesday afternoon. The law in the case just tried provides for a fine only, and not a fail sentence. The cases were consolidated for trial purposes. The specific case considered, which is practically identical with the others, is that charging Cudahy & Co. with accepting a rate of 23 cents a hundred pounds on a shipment of lard to New York for export to Germany when the legal tariff then on file with the Interstate Commerce Commission was 55 cents.

DINNER AT AMBASSADORS SESES -FBESY,: SBiaki OOF, OF, ene emee| dent’s Daughter and Her Husband— Specially Honored by Royalty. London.—Seldom has the entertain- ment of the representative of any for- eigh government attracted such atten- tion of the social, diplomatic and po- Utical world as did the dinner and re- ception given by Ambassador and Mrs. Reid at Dorchester house Tuesday evening for Representative and Mrs, Nicholas Longworth and at which King Edward, by his presence and at tention to President Roosevelt's daugh ter, marked his esteem for the Unitet States and the chief executive. Park Lane in the vicinity of Dor- chester house drew immense crowds as the carriages of distinguished guests passed through the fashionable thoroughfare to the residence which, since Mr. Reid took it a year ago, has welcomed the most famous English men and visiting Americans and foz- eigners. In many respects, the gather- ing this evening was distinctive, for besides King Edward, who was at tended by Lord Granard, lord in wait ‘ing, and Captain Holford, equerry, and Mr. and Mrs. Longworth, the company included cabinet ministers, political leaders of both parties, diplomats and persons of prominence in English so- ciety. At the dinner there were present to meet the king, beside Mr. and Mrs. Longworth, Miss Reid, the duke of Richmond ‘and Gordon, the duke and duchess of Buccleuth, the duke and duchess of Marlborough, the duke of Roxburghe, Lord and Lady Crewe, Lord Tweedmouth, Countess Grey, Lady Townley, wife of the secretary of the British embassy at Washington; Lord and Lady Lansdowne, Paul Cambon, French ambassador and dean of tho diplomatic corps, with Admiral Fou:- nier of the French navy; the earl and countess of Powis, the earl and count: ess of Gosford, Lord Curzon of Ked- dieston, Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Chamber- lain, Sir John and Lady Lister-Kayem, the countess of Yarborough, Mrs. Don Cameron, wife of the late secretary of war of the United States; Mr. and Mrs. Ogden Mills. Dinner was served in the main din- ing hall, which contains many valued paintings for which Dorchester house is famous and which no scheme of ent. bellishment could improve. King Ed: ward took out Mrs. Reid, and at the King’s desire Mrs. Longworth was seated at the other side of him, thus taking precedence of the duchesses.

Of Colored Women of Colorado hold Interesting Sessions. "Fifty years ago, and even five years ago, a club like this among our race was unheard of. We who have had the advantage of education should give our time to the masses of our people. As long as they remain ignorant we are judged by them. No matter how high we elevate ourselves or how high a p lane we reach, the masses, in their ignorance, will drag us down. With these obstacles confronting us we must not only do for ourselves, but are compelled t o do for others of our race less fortunate than we." These statements, made in the annual address of Mrs. Ida-Joyce-Jackson of Colorado Springs, the president, sounded the keynote of the aim of the Colorado State Federation of Colored Woman's Clubs, which convened Wednesday morning in Shorter's chapel for its number of 200 are in attendance at the gathering and include the representative colored women of the state. The slogan of the club is "To the Stars Through Difficulties." The aim of the women who are its members is to uplift their race from the level to which centuries of slavery has dragged it to a position of honor. To carry out these purposes the clubs belonging to the federation do a systematic charity and rescue work. They organize W. C. T. U. branches, assist the needy and hold out a helping hand to the young women of the race who have fallen by the wayside. They teach not only is the Negro uplifted by education, but by industry as well. In the church in which the federation is convening there is on exhibit everything from rugs and millinery to homemade bread, the handiwork of the Industrial Art Club of Colorado Springs. The morning session was devoted to business. Mrs. M. L. Spratilin welcomed the delegates in behalf of the Denver clubs. The reports of the officers showed that since its existence three years ago the federation has trebled its membership. At its first convention there were only eight clubs recorded. There are now twenty-five affiliated clubs. Three W. C. T. U. branches have been organized and work along the lines of temperance is being done by every club in the state. The program for the afternoon included interesting papers on "The Club As a Source of Improvement," Mrs. Eva Gammell of Colorado Springs; "Woman and the Ballot," Mrs. E. P. Ensley of Denver, and "The Home," Mrs. Gertrude Nichols of Denver. A discussion followed each. At the evening session Mrs. Joyce Jackson delivered the president's annual address and the federation song, composed by Eva Carter Buckner of Colorado Springs, was sung.

It has been said, according to the Cleveland Leader, that a boy who goes through school and college without a nickname must have lacked some of the elements of popularity. Hon. Wilfred Hosford and his wife, however, did not believe in nicknames, nor did they intend their boy to have one if they could prevent it. "I was never known as 'Wil' or 'Willy,'" said Mr. Hosford, with dignity, "and I see no reason why my son, Wilfred Sawtell Hosford, should receive either of those names or the still more objectionable one of 'Bill.'" Wilfred Sawtel Hosford was delicate for the first ten years of his life, and received his education at the hands of a grave young tutor. He grew stronger as time went on, and at the age of 12 entered the public school. On his return from the first session he was solemnly questioned by his parents. "The boys are going to like me. I guess," said Wilfred, eagerly. "They've got a nickname for me already." Mrs. Hosford shuddered and Hon. Winfred looked stern. "Do you mean to say you enjoy being called 'Willy' or 'Bill'?" he asked, in his deepest tones. "Oh, they've got a better name than those," said the boy, with a broad grin. "The smartest fellow in the class, Sandy Lane, thought it up almost right off as soon as he heard my name. They're going to call me 'Saw-Hoss.'" ONE ON INSURANCE MAN. "Insurance adjusters are about as clever and 'smooth' as any class of men to be found," said an old-time merchant the other day, according to the Kansas City Times. "Their logic is always oiled and ready to run without the least jar or friction. Once, however, one of the tribe got slipped up on. His logic got sidetracked on a derailing switch. I was running a country store which was destroyed by fire. The adjuster came along and then came the battle to get a settlement satisfactory to both sides. We were going over the items burned in the basement. 'Now, what else was there?' asked the adjuster. "There were 20 bushels of potatoes which I paid 25 cents a bushel for; but at the time they were worth 80 cents a bushel." "Hold on," said the insurance man. "We're only paying you for what you lost. No inflated values go. They cost you $5. What else?" "There were four barrels of apples which had rotted on my hands and I was going to throw out that day. The fire prevented it. They weren't worth a cent, but they cost me three dollars a barrel." "The adjuster saw he was caught. Without batting an eye he wrote: 'Four barrels of apples at three dollars a barrel, $12.'" THE SCIENTIFIC SPIRIT. A Carnegie Tale Which Illustrates Its Possession to a Nicety. Andrew Carnegie admires the scientific spirit—his generous gifts science are a proof of that. Nevertheless to his keen humor this spirit offers itself as a good prey, and Mr. Carnegie often rails wittily at scientists and their peculiar ways, says the New York Tribune. "The late—the late—but I won't mention the poor fellow's name," said Mr. Carnegie at a scientists' supper. "The late Blank, as he lay on his death bed, was greeted very joyously one morning by his physician. "Poor Blank's eyes lit up with hope at sight of the physician's beaming face. There had been a consultation on his case the day before. Perhaps, at last, the remedy to cure him had been found. "My dear Mr. Blank,' said the physician, 'I congratulate you.' "Blank smiled. "I shall recover?' he asked, in a weak voice, tremulous with hope. "Well—er—not exactly,' said the physician. 'But we believe your disease to be entirely new, and if the autopsy demonstrates this to be true we have decided to name the malady after you.'" Missed Fire. The would-be diner had called for ox-tail soup. He looked at the liquor which was brought to him hard and long, tasted it, smelt it, and then beckoned the young waiter—a fresh-complexioned young fellow, whose foot had evidently not been long off his native heath. "I suppose," whispered the customer, confidentially, "that an ox really did dip his tail in this soup at least once—a long time ago—eh?" "No, zur!" gasped the horrified waiter. "No hox never 'ad 'is tail within a mile of that soup—I gives yer my word an' honor for it, zur!"—St. Louis Republic.

CRAFTY MAN WINS OUT. Neat Way in Which He Dupees the "Angel of His Life." Mr. Smuthe reaches home for dinner and finds his wife in an unusually taciturn mood. They go through the meal almost quietly; the only speech being from him. The evening progresses in the same fashion. At last he asks: "Aren't you feeling well to-night?" "How should I know? Have I said or done anything to offend you?" "No; you haven't said anything or done anything." "Then what on earth makes you act this way?" "I suppose you have forgotten what day this is?" "No. This is the 25th day of August, 1905." "And it is my birthday, and you forgot that it was, and you never forgot it before, and you——" "One moment, my dear. I did not forget that it was your birthday." She smiles through her tears, thinking of diamond sunbursts and things like that. "Oh, you dear thing!" she exclaims. "You did not forget it, then?" "No. What birthday is it?" "Why, my thirtieth, of course." "Well, angel of my life, do you not think it is more gracious of me to seem to overlook your birthday than to remind you of how old you are growing?" Next day she tells the neighbor that dear John is the thoughtfulest man that ever lived. FINDS IT IS NOT POISON. Darky Explains His Inefectual Efforts to Commit Suicide There was a man in Atlanta who once suspected a colored man in his employ of tampering with the contents of his wine cellar, especially with a certain brand of fine whisky. The employer decided to adopt measures to verify his suspicions. He allowed the demijohn holding his "private stock" to become empty; then, instead of refilling it, he placed his pet brand in bottles, labeling each one "poison." One evening, on returning home unexpectedly, he caught his servant in "flagrante delicto." Seizing the bottle from the darky's hand the Atlanta man exclaimed, in a tone of horror, "Great heavens, Sam! do you know what you have been doing? This bottle is marked 'poison!'" The negro took the bottle and surveyed it closely. Then he sniffed at it. A melancholy smile flitted over his dusky countenance. "Tain't pizen, sah," he said, dejectedly. "Ise been fooled ag'in." "Fooled again?" repeated the master, indignantly. "What do you mean?" "Well, sah," continued the darky, in the same tone of depression, "it am ds way. I knowed from de fust, from de way you acted 'bout dat demijohn, dat you had yo' suspishuns ob me; an' dat sho' made me feel pretty blue. I got distressed, an' didn't care. Why, sah, fo' moss' two weeks now Ise been tryin' to commit suicide outer dat bottle."—Woman's Home Company.

Not in years has the House witnessed a more dramatic scene than it witnessed Thursday, incident to the adoption of the conference report. It was caused by an attack upon Speaker Cannon by Delegate Smith of Arizona, and the speaker resented it in such a way as to draw the plaudits of Democrats and Republicans. When the conference report was called up Mr. Moon of Tennessee, the ranking member of the minority on the committee on territories, made a statement in relation to the position of the Democrats on the compromise agreed upon in conference. He was frequently interrupted with applause and was then followed by Marcus A. Smith, delegate from Arizona, who took occasion in a guarded way to insinuate that there had been undue influence used in preparing an agreement. Smarting under what he believed to be a direct insinuation against him, Speaker Cannon impetuously left the chair, calling Mr. Dalzell to the desk, and, taking a position unconsciously in the aisle opposite the seat which he occupied for many years until chosen speaker, he asked the speaker pro tem, for five minutes to explain his position. Thunders of applause greeted the speaker as he stood with hand uplifted, his head shaking, waiting for quiet in the House. Again and again waves of applause swept over the chamber, Democrats and Republicans particiating. Mr. Cannon said: "I would not have taken the floor had not the honorable gentleman, the delegate from Arizona (Mr. Smith), made the remark that there was a high penalty for the governor of that territory to attempt to influence legislation or for one legislative body or its membership to attempt to traffic in the legislation with the other in order to secure other legislation, if I correctly state him. "That remark could not have had but one motive and one meaning, and that meaning is that one one in the House has sought to affect legislation in the House as a matter of traffic in order to secure action upon this matter in the Senate. That imputation, implied so far as it reflects upon the speaker of this House, and so far as I know or believe, upon any other member of this House, is unworthy of the gentleman that uttered it and without foundation in fact. "I pause and invite any member present who has the least intimation, knowledge, or even belief, that the statement implied in the insinuation of the gentleman is true, to say so." When Speaker Cannon finished, the House was in an uproar. It could not be controlled, nor did the presiding officer make any effort to do so. Members who had sat in silence during the delivery of the speech, Democrats and Republicans alike, crowded around the speaker to shake him by the hand and tell him how glad they were that the long drawn out fight for statehood had been happily ended in a compromise and that his speech voiced the sentiment of the members. NO SCALING OF LOSSES. Insurance Companies Must Pay in Full or Leave California. San Francisco.—The officials of California are agreed, it is said, that the insurance companies which refuse to meet their obligations and pay their losses in full will not only be driven from the state, but ruined before the world if the widest publication of their methods can accomplish that end. Insurance Commissioner Wolf is backed by Attorney General Webb. The attorney general expressed himself forcefully to-day regarding the proposition made by sixty companies at the meeting in Oakland Tuesday to pay only seventy-five per cent, of adjusted losses. "Under the law of California," he said, "the state insurance commissioner can summarily revoke the license of any insurance company for the state when there is cause. "Certainly, the payment of only seventy-five per cent, of losses would be cause. And not only would it be proof of unsoundness and unfitness to do business, but it would be the plainest evidence of dishonesty." Thirty-two insurance companies met in Oakland Thursday and organized to be independent of the Fire Underwriters' Bureau. These companies are the ones that decided to pay dollar for dollar their losses in the fire. None of the companies that voted for a horizontal cut of twenty-five per cent, was admitted to the meeting and the result is virtually a disruption of the Underwriters' bureau. The local policyholders of the Traders' Insurance Company adopted articles of incorporation preparatory to making a fight in the Illinois courts for a full settlement of the $2,000,000 loss on which the company is said to be evading payment. Following is a list of the thirty-two insurance companies that are standing out against the proposition advanced by sixty of their associates to order a cut of 25 cents right down the line and compel policyholders to accept 75 cents on the dollar: Aetna Insurance Company, California, Mercantile of Boston, American Central of St. Louis, St. Paul, Manchester, Atlas of London, Kings County, Springfield of Massachusetts, New Zealand, North British and Mercantile, Liverpool and London and Globe, Sun of London, Northern Assurance of London, Phoenix of London, Pelican of New York, Continental of New York, London Assurance, New York Underwriters, Teutonic, London and Lancshire, English-American Underwriters, Orient of Hartford, State of Liverpool, Hartford of Hartford, Citizens of St. Louis, Home of New York, Connecticut, New Hampshire, Queen of New York, Royal of Liverpool, Industrial Underwriters. IN STRICT CONFIDENCE. Women Obtain Mrs. Pinkham's Advice and Help. She Has Guided Thousands to Health.— How Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound Cured Mrs. Alice Berryhill. It is a great satisfaction for a woman to feel that she can write to another telling her the most private and confidential details about her illness," and know that her letter will be seen by a woman only. Many thousands Mrs. Alice Berryhill It is a great satisfaction for a woman to feel that she can write to another telling her the most private and confidential details about her illness,' and know that her letter will be seen by a woman only. Many thousands of cases of female diseases come be- fore Mrs. Pinkham every year, some personally, others by mail. Mrs. Pinkham is the daughter-in-law of Lydia E. Pinkham and for twenty-five years under her direction and since her decease she has been advising sick women free of charge. Mrs. Pinkham never violates the confidence of women, and every testimonial letter published is done so with the written consent or request of the writer, in order that other sick women may be benefited as she has been. Mrs. Alice Berryhill, of 313 Boyce Street, Chattanooga, Tenn., writes: Dear Mrs. Pinkham:— "Three years ago life looked dark to me. I had education and inflammation of the female organs when I was born." I had ulceration and inflammation of the female organs and was in a serious condition. "My health was completely broken down and the doctor told me that if I was not operated upon, I would die within six months. I told him I would have no operation and would try Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. He tried to influence me against it but I sent for the medicine that same day and began to use it faithfully. Within five days I felt relief but was not entirely cured until I used it for some time. Your medicine is certainly fine. I have inwarderal friends and neighbors to take it and I know that I am not suffering from female troubles and who to-day are as well and strong as I am from using your Vegetable Compound." Just as surely as Mrs. Berryhill was cured, will Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound cure every woman suffering from any form of female ills. If you are sick write Mrs. Pinkham for advice. It is free and always helpful. CONCERNING CLOCKS Never allow the clock to run down. It responds to regular attention just as surely as a human being does and keeps its course truly when made to follow its endless routine. The hands of a clock should always be turned forward. To set the hands by reversing the right-hand motion is to loosen delicate screws that hold them within reach of various cog slips. Never allow the clock to be moved from the position where it is well balanced. A deviation of two or three minutes a day from the correct time may be the result of an uneven placing of the clock, and once it is properly adjusted it should not be shifted for dusting or for artistic purposes. This is especially true of clocks that have a pedulum. Even a "good yellow" may reform.

"How can I marry that man? I abhor, despise, abominate him!" "There, there, dear! You can tell him all that after you've married him!"

Franklin, of the Franklin & Palmer Chemical Co., Rochester, N. Y., writes: "Seven years ago I was suffering very much through the failure of the kidneys to eliminate the uric acid from my system. My back was very lame and aching." "Seven years ago I was suffering very much through the failure of the kidneys to eliminate the uric acid from my system. My back was very lame and ached if I overexerted myself in the least degree. At times I was weighed down with a feeling of languor and depression and suffered continually from annoying irregularities of the kidney secretions. I procured a box of Doan's Kidney Pills and began using them. I found prompt relief from the aching and lameness in my back, and by the time I had taken three boxes I was cured of all irregularities." Sold by all dealers; 50 cents a box. Foster-Milburn Co., Buffalo, N. Y. DIAMOND DEALER'S MISTAKE "Will you please examine this diamond," said a man who had stepped into a jeweler's shop, "and tell me what you think of it? If it is a good stone, I think I will buy it." The jeweler took the gem, which was unset, and looked at it critically for a moment. Then in a confidential tone he said: "Well, to tell you the truth, that isn't a very good stone. It hasn't much fire, it is badly cut, and there is something here very much like a flaw." Then he held the diamond under a microscope and examined it carefully, finally observing: "No, it isn't exactly a flaw, but I shouldn't call it a perfect stone. Now, if you want something really fine, here—" "Excuse me," the other man interrupted. "I don't think I'll buy a diamond to-day. This is a diamond that one of your assistants let me take Saturday on approval. I deposited $40 on it. Please let me have my money, and we will declare the deal off." ODD EATING CUSTOMS. Prazilians never eat when they drink, nor drink when they eat; and the Tartars continually persist in pulling a guest by the ear until he drinks. Maldiv islanders retire to the darkest part of the houses and hang curtains about them, so that none of their fellowmen may see them at their meal. When they desire to show a mark of great esteem, the negroes of Ardra drink from the same cup at the same time, and the King of Loango used to eat and drink in two separate houses. The Philippine islander will not eat a meal alone. Whenever a Filipino finds himself without a companion with whom to share his meal, he will abstain from eating until he has found one. A strange custom prevails in Kamchtaka, where a man who wishes to entertain a guest invites him into a cabin, which is heated to an excessive temperature, and then presses him with food until he is in a state of torpor. Instances of men dying at these orgles have been known. The Tahitians, though a naturally sociable race, dine separately. Even the man and his wife do not eat togehter. Each member of the family has his own food-basket. They take their places about five yards apart, and then, turning their backs to each other, dine amid a profound silence. BUILDING FOOD To Bring the Babies Around. When a little human machine (or a large one) goes wrong, nothing is so important as the selection of food to bring it around again. "My little baby boy fifteen months old had pneumonia, then came brain fever, and no sooner had he got over these than he began to cut teeth and, being so weak, he was frequently thrown into convulsions," says a Colorado mother. "I decided a change might help, so took him to Kansas City for a visit. When we got there he was so very weak when he would cry he would sink away and seemed like he would die. "When I reached my sister's home she said immediately that we must feed him Grape-Nuts and, although I had never used the food, we got some and for a few days gave him just the juice of Grape-Nuts and milk. He got stronger so quickly we were soon feeding him the Grape-Nuts itself and in a wonderfully short time he fattened right up and became strong and well. "That showed me something worth knowing and, when later on my girl came, I raised her on Grape-Nuts and she is a strong healthy baby and has been. You will see from the little photograph I send you what a strong, chubby youngster the boy is now, but he didn't look anything like that before we found this nourishing food. Grape-Nuts nourished him back to strength when he was so weak he couldn't keep any other food on his stomach." Name given by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich. All children can be built to a more sturdy and healthy condition upon Grape-Nuts and cream. The food contains the elements nature demands, from which to make the soft gray filling in the nerve centers and brain. A well-fed brain and strong, sturdy nerves absolutely insure a healthy body. Look in pkgs, for the famous little book, "The Road to Wellville." A course of forestry will be established at the State Agricultural College. Ther was a big snowslide near Montezuma, in Summit county, June 5th. It leveled a considerable strip of pine forest. The gross receipts of the Denver postoffice for May were $71,463, against $60,459 for the same month last year, an increase of $11,004. Mrs. A. E. Hensen of Denver took a teapoonful of carbolic acid by mistake, in place of paregoric, and died within fifteen minutes. Twenty-two marriage licenses were issued at Denver in one day recently, but this is still below the record, which is twenty-nine for a day. The sandstone depot of the Colorado Midland railroad at Ute Park was destroyed by fire Saturday night, June 10th, the damage approximating $5,000. The diocesan council of the Episcopal Church of Colorado, at its session in Denver, voted to add $1,000 to the annual salary of Bishop Charles S. Olmstead. The State Board of Equalization at its last meeting in Denver, June 11th, adjourned until October 1st, when it will hear complaints concerning the assessment of property. John Quinn is serving a sixty-day sentence in the Pueblo county jail for preventing his ten-year-old son from reporting regularly at the juvenile court as ordered by Judge Myrick. W. D. White, who is grading for the Florence electric line, has nearly 200 men employed and says that on the next pay day $20,000 will be distributed. Mr. White believes the road will be finished by the middle of August. The citizens of Kremmling are preparing to celebrate the advent of the Moffat road by giving a three-day's celebration on July 4th, 5th and 6th. There will be horse racing, broncho busting, baseball, a fishbake and other amusements. The County Commissioners of Boulder county have promised $2,000 to help the people of Boulder to build a good road up Flagstaff hill, west of the city. This will make accessible some of the finest scenic attractions in the foothills. The oldest and largest tree in Greeley is a cottonwood that was planted in 1871 by Mrs. Abigail Dunham, who is now the oldest woman in Greeley, being in her ninetieth year. The tree is fifteen feet in circumference and seventy-five feet high. The ninth annual meeting of the Arkansas Valley Press Association was held at Salida on the 9th instant. Guy U. Hardy of the Canon City Record was elected president and P. Byrne of the Bessemer Vindicator secretary and treasurer. The location of the next meeting was left to the executive committee. The first train into Telluride from Denver and Durango without transferring, arrived June 9th, the great slide on Keystone hill having been cleared away. One thousand feet of track was carried away by the landslide, making it necessary to build a new grade and track. Freight and express have been conveved by wagon. A charter has been granted by the territorial secretary of Oklahoma to the Pueblo, Oklahoma & New Orleans Railroad Company, with $3,500,000 capital stock, and with headquarters at Oklahoma City. The proposition is to build a line from Pueblo to New Orleans, a distance of 1,050 miles, at an estimated cost of $21,000,000. Harry Holt, one of the best known and oldest railroad men in Boulder county, was killed Saturday evening, June 10th, in Sunset. He was a brakeman on the C. & N. and at the time was on a freight train. He fell from the box car as the train was crossing the bridge at Sunset and broke his neck. The coroner's jury found that death was accidental. At Littleton, on the 11th inst., Clarence Bair was hurled clear over the top of a freight train by an engine that struck his wagon at the crossing. He landed on a heap of clinders thirty-five feet distant and was not seriously hurt. J. A. Carlon, station agent, was struck by one of the horses and hurled against the engine, losing three fingers of his right hand. Nearly every lock box in the Colorado City postoffice was opened some time between 7 o'clock Saturday night and 7 o'clock Sunday morning. One of the clerks, upon his arrival in the morning, found a large quantity of mail scattered over the floor. Many mail boxes were also open. Many of the boxes contained checks, and payment on these has been stopped at the various banks. Other patrons of the postoffice report that certain expected packages have not arrived. It is expected that the arid land northeast of Beaver creek, near Florence will soon be devoted to the culture of sugar beets. Pueblo men have bought the land and are perfecting plans for the construction of a beet sugar factory that will cost $90,000. There has been no previous farming in that section, but a deal has been made whereby water for irrigation can be secured. One thousand acres will be planted to beets and the factory will be ready for the 1907 crop. The land will be divided into 150-acre tracts this summer and the irrigating ditches will be built this year. Most of the land was bought from the state. In the federal court at Denver, Judge Lewis instructed the jury trying the $25,000 damage suit brought by George Ties against the Smuggler Mining Company of Aspen to return a verdict against Ties on the ground that the evidence did not show that the injuries were due to the negligence of the company. This case has attracted considerable attention. Ties was employed in the mine of the company in 1903 and on September 8th of that year was overcome by gas and while being taken to the surface in the cage his leg was caught in the timbers of the latter and broken. His contention in holding the defendant company responsible for the injuries was that it failed to inform him of the risk he would encounter from the gas entering the mine previously to his accepting employment.

Many men think themselves self-made who are really marriage-made. The man who avoids matrimony on account of the cares of wedded life rivals the wiseacre who secured himself against corns by having his legs amputated. Don't marry for beauty alone. Socrates called beauty "a short-lived tyranny," and Theophrastus pronounced it "a silent cheat." The man who marries for beauty alone is as silly as the man who would buy a house because it had fine flowers in the front garden. It is in life as it is with a kite; it will not fly very high until it has a string tying it down. And so the man who is tied down by half a dozen responsibilities and their mother will make a higher and stronger fight than the bachelor who, having nothing to keep him steady, is always floundering in the mud. DIETARY DICTA. Dinner should be of a lighter nature in summer than in winter. A quart of wheat contains more nutriment than a bushel of cucumbers. There is a happy mean between eating everything and being squeamish. Two pounds of potatoes contain as much nutriment as 13 pounds of turnips. Light soups, light desserts and light meals should have the preference in warm weather. Vegetables and fruits are to be used most generously at that season of the year in which they naturally mature. Beginning the dinner with soup is the very best way to get the whole system in condition for assimilating a hearty meal. How's This?

Hosey Gould PICTURESQUE STYLES OF THE DAY. Never were bonnets and hats more picturesque than at the present, and are just suited to the demure little faces of the wearers. There is the granny, which comes in straws as well as in lingerie, and is a grandmother affair modified to suit a baby. The granny is made of white silk shirred on a wire frame, and trimmed simply with half-wreath of delicate blossoms; and there are straw shapes, burnt-straws, with a band of ribbon passing about the crown and fastened over on the brim, off at one side a big white pompon attached—all so simple and effective. A dainty granny comes in white pique edged with a little good embroidery and with no trimmings at all. There are also very nice white pique hats for little boys, three cornered affairs that make the wee ladies miniature Napoleons. For older girls one may purchase well made pique Tam O'Shanters, larger somewhat than last year, with a braided pattern on top of the crown, the edge of the frill buttonholed, under the brim softly shirred mull, about the crown folds of pale blue or pink silk with a great bow at the right side. Then there are extremely cheap wash hats of coarse but pretty embroidery, which are made with draw-string for top brim, can most easily be removed for laundering. These come ready-made and with little additions at home may be converted into very acceptable lingerie hats. ON THE MODES OF THE MOMENT The golf shirt—some call it the negligee—is so simple and comfortable it seems to fill a long felt want. And the laudress must approve—so easy it is to "do up," an item to be considered in this day of white waists. We like it best made of a good weight of China silk, men to us it appears the ideal shirt for summer wear. The lay-down collar, the three-quarter sleeve the distinguishing features. When the season's over perhaps this will be considered the characteristic blouse of 1906. Some time ago—a year or two back 1 THE NEW GOLF SHIRT. —and the print dress was eulogized by many folk, looked upon as the apotheosis of the vaunted simplicity. We smiled a little scornfully, called it but part of the passing fad; but have been converted, now would join with the eulogizers. And the conversion came through glimpse of just one such frock, quite perfect of its kind. It was noticed this very morning while coming down town on the train and the hours since frock and wearer has stayed with us as a bit of refreshing—both so "morning fair." The material must have been a pretty, fine print, the pattern was a delicate tracery of Not long ago we were shown an array of party frocks for little girls that quite took our breath away, they were so elaborate. But while these were pretty they really were too fussy, would make the little girl look like an overdressed French doll. However, it would be all right to let one such costume creep into that sensible wardrobe you have planned for your particular small maid. The favorite material is a dainty dotted Swiss, which does not muss easily, looks crisp and fresh a long time and stands out in that engaging ballet-skirt manner so affected by the smart wee lady. One for a child of five years was made with full blouse waist that came down very low indeed and from which frilled out a ruffle supposed to do duty as a skirt. The neck was low, the sleeves mere puffs, the trimming lace insertion put in with up and down strips. No sash was worn, stockings and shoes were white. With this a hat of dotted Swiss would be charming, the flowers a half wreath of daisies. Colored shoes and stockings add to the costumes of the summer season, pale blue stockings and low shoes in great favor with the very young ladies. Perhaps later we shall see them adopting the gray hose and shoes their elders so much approve just at present. Both mammas and daughters have taken to flowered stuffs for afternoon and evening frocks, and these costumes suit admirably the picture-headgear in vogue. dim black on white. Skirt and waist were in one, and there was a ilchu and undersleeve of white lawn with border of fine Swiss embroidery. A white wash hat was worn. Russian-sheeting is a material the wise are now buying for their shirt-waist suits, a creamy material not unlike kitchen towelling, though softer and more "artistic." It is very wide and takes but four yards to make a dress. Trimmed with bands of colored cambric, it is very modish. And made of course with elbow sleeves. This is the day of pastel shades, and we would repeat what was said not long ago about the modishness of a touch of light gray. Pale harmonies are liked better than contrasts. We are affecting youthful modes. Not only is this evidenced by the childish lingerie hats but also by such a chapeau as a Tuscan hat lavishly trimmed with pale blue ribbons and blush roses; white crinoline straws with crown of spotted muslin and wreath of dog roses and ivy. A Leghorn simply trimmed with black velvet and white roses looks very well with a dress of white serge. The black vell of real lace drapes with due charm the white or black hat worn with a white gown. Some of these veils are very beautiful, and the pattern is brought out well in detail when seen against white. As a rule they are very becoming, forming a frame for the face, generally seen thrown back over the hat. Sheer gray is in fashion for evening wear, and as a rule is made over a colored lining. A very Frenchy costume was a transparent gray over an orange-colored silk slip; the gleam of the yellow through the cool gray very beautiful. In the hair was worn an orange algrette that came forth from a bowknot of silver spangles. Many persons are attempting gray that once thought the color quite impossible for them; but nowadays there are such beautiful tones and gray is combined so variously that it is not so difficult to wear as formerly. There are lovely wash materials in gray, and one may evolve from one of these a fashionable evening gown at decidedly small outlay of money. The more expensive evening stuffs, among them chiffon, are of course very attractive.

NEILL-REYNOLDS REPORT CONFIRMED President Sends to Congress Documents Concerning Packing House Scandal. In a Letter to Chairman Wadsworth, of House Committee on Agriculture, Mr. Roosevelt Quotes from a Reliable Correspondent at Chicago, Who Corroborates the Stories of Filth and Disease in Packing Plants. Washington, D. C. — In response to a request from the house committee on agriculture, President Roosevelt Friday forwarded to Representative Wadsworth, the chairman of that committee, the report made to him by a committee of the department of agriculture regarding conditions in the Chicago meat packing houses. Accompanying the report was a letter from the president in which he points out that there is no conflict in substance between the Neill-Reynolds report and that of the agricultural department experts. Following is the text of the letter of the president to Chairman Wadsworth: "My Dear Mr. Wadsworth: In accordance with your request I send you herewith the two reports of inspection by the committee apointed by the department of agriculture on April 5 and 13th. This committee had already been appointed when I notified the secretary that I desired that such a commission should be appointed in order to make the investigation. Subsequent complaints to me and the consideration of complaints already made showed that the charges were not only against the packing houses but also to a certain extent reflected upon the action of the government inspectors and I came to the conclusion that it was best to have an investigation by outside individuals who could not be charged with being in any way interested in the matter. Accordingly before the completion of the investigation by the department of agriculture I directed Mr. Neill and Mr. Reynolds to make an investigation, the first report of which has been laid before congress. Much testimony has been offered to us which has not been considered in this report, for Mr. Neill and Reynolds in this report confine themselves to stating in more or less summary way the facts as to which they had been eye-witnesses; and what they have said cannot be successfully controverted. Some of the ground traversed by Messrs. Neill and Reynolds is not touched upon in the report of the committee of the agricultural department. As to the ground covered in common by the reports of the two investigating committees there is no conflict in substance as to the important matters, although there is a marked difference in emphasis, this being partially due to the greater length and detail of the report of the committee of the department of agriculture. In my judgment the emphasis of the report of Messrs. Neill and Reynolds is abundantly justified by the facts. To show the immediate and extraordinary change for the better which the mere fact of their investigation is already bringing about in the condition of the packing houses in Chicago, it is only necessary to instance the following portions of a letter received from a most competent and trustworthy witness in Chicago whose name I will give the committee if it so desires: "On Monday I began a tour of all the great packing houses, going first to Libby's, then Swift's. "Tuesday all the morning discussed changes that ought to be made and caught a glimpse of the awakening at Armour's. In the afternoon visited the plant with the superintendent. 'Wednesday I rested and contemplated the 'awakening of packing town.' It is miraculous. Thursday did Nelson Morris, with the superintendent. Nelson Morris has done much to make things better. By the time the next inspector arrives they will have still more new lavatories, toilet rooms, dressing rooms, etc. Cuspidors everywhere, and signs prohibiting spitting. In most, the awakening seemed to come by force from without. "At Armour's, at my suggestion, I made no pretense of making an investigation, but frankly announced my desire to see things for myself and to get a fresh impression of conditions as I had not seen the plants since before the strike. On every hand there was indications of an almost humorous haste to clean up, repave and even to plan for future changes. New toilet rooms, new dressing rooms, new towels, etc. etc. Swift's and Armour's were both so cleaned up that I was compelled to cheer them on their way by expressing my pleasure at the changes. The sausage girls were moved upstairs where they could get sun and light, they too have dressing rooms, etc. I asked for showers and lockers for the casing workers at Armour's and got a promise that they would put them in. The canning and stuffing An Ironmountain Collision. St. Louis, June 9.—A collision between passenger trains occurred on the Iron Mountain road near Mengo, 115 miles south of here, early Friday resulting in the death of a fireman and injuries to three trainmen. No passengers were injured. The northbound passenger train had stopped to take a switch to let the southbound train pass. Before the train had entered the switch the southbound train dashed into it, badly wrecking the engines, killing a fireman and injuring three trainmen. room, chip beef and beef extract at Armour's seemed really quite good. In all of these rooms the girls work. At Libby's the girls are to be put in to a blue calico uniform which they will buy at half price. They are putting in toilet rooms which they say are temporary and that when the building is remodeled they will have these put in a better place. The haste towards reform would have been amusing if it were not so nearly tragic. "They tried to win my help on the ground that loss of foreign trade would mean hardship for the workers in my neighborhood and I must say I do share this fear but I cannot see the wisdom of my coming out publicly and saying that I saw indications of an awakening, for I want the changes to be radical and permanent even though we all have to suffer for the present." I wish to repeat that my investigations are not yet through. I am not prepared to make a final statement either as to so much of the complaints as concern the management of the bureau of animal industry or as to certain of the graver charges in connection with the adulteration of meat products as well as other matters. But enough has been developed in my judgment to call for immediate thoroughgoing and radical enlargement of the powers of the government in inspecting all meats which enter into interstate and foreign commerce. Unfortunately the misdeeds of those who are responsible for the abuses we design to cure will bring discredit and damage not only upon them but upon the innocent stock growers, the ranchmen and farmers of the country. The only way permanently to protect and benefit these innocent stock growers, the farmers and ranchmen, is to secure by law the thorough and adequate inspection for which I have asked. Sincerely yours, THEODORE ROOSEVELT. CHICAGO PACKERS TO MOVE. Location to Be in Indiana-City Officials Have Ordered Changes Made in Present Bullings. Chicago, Ill.—Rumors to the effect that a new stockyards with Sir Thomas J. Lipton of London as its chief backer is to be established near Gary, Ind., adjacent to the property of the United States Steel corporation, were in circulation Friday. Several of the best known real estate men in Chicago were named among those said to be acquiring land for the purpose. Although the story generally was discredited among the packers, it was declared that at least six plants are to be removed from Chicago to Indiana. It is said the plans include the digging of a canal to the little Calumet river for the purpose of carrying off refuse. The building commissioner, Peter Bartzen, and the sanitary commissioner, Perry L. Hedrick, served notice Friday on the packers to make improvements which it is estimated by Bartzen will cost close to $1,000,000. Bartzen declared that practically all the buildings in the stock yards were erected without city building permits. He said he will ask the city council to give him fifteen special inspectors for a term of thirty days. The sanitary commissioner said the packers are willing to adopt all suggestions made by his department. Mayor Dunne sent a letter to the Secretary of Agriculture, James Wilson, urging him to give his view in reference to the joint appointment of a committee of high grade pathologists and experts to pass on the purity of meats sent out from the stock yards. June 2 the mayor sent Mr. Wilson a telegram in regard to the matter, but he received only a brief telegraphic reply. Kansas City, Mo. — Mr. Carl Schweizer, manager of the state free labor bureau, has received a letter from T. B. Gerow of Topeka, manager of the Kansas free labor bureau, asking him to arrange to send 2,500 men for the Kansas wheat harvest. The pay this year is lower than it was last year. Last year it ranged from $2 to $3.50 a day. This year the rate quoted is from $1.50 to $2. Governor Ide announces that a province will be formed of Manila, for the purpose of giving the city representation in the Filipino assembly. The original plan was that Manila, like the District of Columbia, should have no representation in the national assembly. Postmaster Must Show Cause. St. Louis, June 9.—Judge Finkelberg, in the United States circuit court Friday, granted an order applied for by attorneys representing the Mississippi Valley Trust company, receiver for the American Reservoir Bond company, North American Investment company and the Colonial Securities company, requiring postmaster Frank Wyman to show cause why he should not turn the mail of the three concerns over to the receiver. Postmaster Wyman is cited to appear in court next Tuesday
