THE COLORADO STATESMAN THE JOURNAL OF THE WEST. LABOR SHALL BE FREE RAGE COUNTRY PARTY Secretary Taft Sharply Arraigned Southern State Legislatures for Depriving the Negro of the Ballot--Laws cover Both Races but Only Enforced On Blacks. VOL. XII. Secretary Sharply Arraigned Southern ing the Negro of the B Races but Only E Greensboro, July 9.—Secretary Taft, who was warmly applauded throughout his address, in opening said that when he was invited to address this meeting the committee advised him "that the political situa- tion was such that if a proper effort was made at the coming elec- tion it would be possible to carry the state for the Republican party." The secretary added: "I believe that nothing that could happen in the politics in this country would work greater advantage to the country at large, and to the South in particular, than the breaking up of what has been properly known as the 'solid South.' I say this in no partisan spirit, for I am not one of those who think that this result would necessarily increase the probability of the continuance in power of the Republican party. The solidity of the South has in a measure furnished its own antidote in restraining many voters in the North who might have left the Republican party but for what they regard as the injustice and danger of southern political conditions. "The South has been kept solid by the spectre of Negro domination, and by stirring up racial prejudices and arousing unfounded alarm over an impossible return of reconstruction days," said the secretary. "After a long struggle," he added, "the Negro's vote was made to count for nothing and then the leaders of the dominant party came to realize that dreadful demoralization of all society that followed in government if law was flouted and fraud was to constitute its basis. They cast about to make the law square with existing conditions by property and educational qualifications which should exclude the Negro. They adopted amendments to the state constitutions with the so-called 'grandfather clauses,' intended to apply the new qualifications to the Negro; and not to apply them to the whites." The secretary said it is impossible to frame a law establishing an educational qualification for suffrage which will stand the test of the fifteenth amendment and which will not operate ultimately to exclude impartially the Negroes and whites from the ballot who lacked educational requirement. A policy in the South, he said, which excludes from the ballot impartially black and white, when ig- norant and irresponsible, can not be criticised. During the past decade, Mr. Taft pointed out, a period of unprecedented prosperity has come for the fair southern states. "Under the circumstances," he said, "it is not to be expected that the sensible, clear-headed business men of the South do not perceive the tremendous disadvantage under which the Southern states labor in having only one party with any voice in their state governments; and in being herded together always as the hide-bound support of the Democratic party of the country, no matter what wild fallacies it may adopt in its platform nor what candidate it may put before the country. "The effect of the change in industrial conditions in eliminating the cry of Negro domination from the politics of the former slave-owning states has manifested itself first in the border states. West Virginia has become permanently Republican, and Maryland and Missouri put themselves in the Republican column in the last presidential election, while Kentucky nearly brought forth works meet for repentance in the first McKinley campaign." The question that should address itself to the great business interests of the South is how much longer "the spectre of things past" is to hold them to a political allegiance that does them no good in national politics, and deprives their communities of the "inestimable benefits of the presence in local politics of two parties, each of which, if it does wrong, has a real chance of being punished for its misconduct." Mr. Taft contended that if the southern people "had kept up with the times; had they at the ballot box expressed their sentiments on the living issues of the day, instead of allowing themselves to be frightened by a spectre and a shadow of the past, their political importance as communities and the significance of their views upon measures and men would have been vastly enhanced." HIGH CHARACTER The address of Bishop Doane of Albany, New York, at Tuskogee Institute, was a gem, and will never grow too old or stale to keep before DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, JULY 21, 1906. the race. Among other things Bishop Doane said: "The white people have the tremendous advantage of centuries of cultivation, of education and of liberty, while you are only within the century emerging from illiteracy and bondage, and whatever gives us the advantage gives us also an opportunity and responsibility, but I am equally clear that the hope of the Negro is in the Negro himself. Lifted above the conditions of ignorance and the circumstance of bondage, a new Negro race is coming, and coming to the front, in America. The progress is as instructive as it is characteristic. "Hampton began, as the effort of one man, white in soul and nature as he was in complexion—to meet the new condition of the freemen, plunged without preparation into the obligation of citizenship. But the result of Hampton is Tuskegee, and the black man, founder and teacher, as well as student, is preparing himself for his share, and it must be a larger scale in the uplifting of his own race. Just as the hope of what we call foreign missionary work depends for its success upon the training of a native minuistry, Africans for Africa and Japanese for Japan, so the hope of the elevation of the black people depends upon the raising from among themselves, not teachers only, but men and women of high character and social influence which they can impart to their fellows, not as subject lessons, but as leaven to raise and quicken the race. "This is the real gift for your hands to give: To go and be a power among your own people, staying with them; not wandering away, living lives that shed light upon the ignorance and spreading influence through the dullness and the degradation of the neighborhood where you may be, and that influence must make for religion, for righteousness and for reality. "Herein, specifically, it seems to me, Tuskegee has justified itself, and made its claim for renewed confidence and increased support. As I read its story, quite beyond its romance, the record of its reality, chapter after chapter written by men and women who have been trained here, it tells how they have been penetrated by its spirit and power, given to others what they have gained themselves. What has been wrought here in these five and twenty years is good enough for a backward look of amazement and thanksgiving. But our faces turn forward as well. We look on. To 'be fruitful and multiply' was not only spoken of the first man and woman, but it is spoken with deeper meaning to such as you are for the production, the perpetuation, the perfection of this higher life, until all Ethiopia, here in the country to which you were transplanted, and in the far-away continent from which you came, and which is still dark; till all Ethiopia shall stretch forth hands of service; hands that pray, and hands that give to the God who made you in His high image and redeemed you with His blood." RACE NEWS Gathered from Various Sources. Ross D. Brown, a young Negro of Muncie, Ind., has invented a machine that will mould and complete the manufacture of glass jars and bottles. Elmer A. Carter, a 16-year-old Negro, Junior in the High School Gloverville, N. Y., won a $50 gold prize in an oratorical contest Monday night, July 9th. His subject was "The Great Heritage, or the American Negro." At Birmingham, N. Y., Miss Gilberta F. Wallace, graduated from the high school at the head of a class of 36 white students. She was valedictorian, the most honorable position among the graduation speakers. Louis F. Pollard, of Littleton, N. C., graduated a few days ago from Hopkins Grammar School, New Haven, Conn., winning the honors of salutatorian and first Greek prize. Mr. Pollard was the only colored man in the class which was a very large one The Mobile Express remarks: "The colored man cannot go in the railroad dining room and eat at the best table, but he can get the same meal sent out, served in the same plates and with the same wares and get for 25 cents, what the white man pays 75 cents for. He saves 50 cents by being a Negro while the white man pays 50 cents extra for being white. Come to think of it this is only a sample case. How justice must hang her head in shame at some of the verdicts reached by southern judges and juries. The idea of sentencing a man to prison for nearly 1.000 years for simply catching a woman by the foot is supremely ridiculous and a travesty on justice. But what does the average white southerner know about justice when the color of a man's skin determines the grade of punishment? The Union Transportation company, organized in Nashville, Tenn., to run an automobile line to accommodate Negroes who are "jim crowed" by the city lines, is navidg a multitude of troubles. Tacks have been placed on the streets to ruin the rubber tires. power was denied by the electric corporation, and exorbitant license fees were charged, and now their own newly installed dynamo has failed, necessitating further delay. In the meantime the patient walkers are still walking rather than be "jim crowed" by the regular company. "Aunt" Fannie Lomax an old mammy of the true type died in Virginia across the river from Washington recently. She was 105 years old and remembered dimly many incidents of the war of 1812. As for the Civil war she remembered vividly many events of that great struggle. "Aunt" Fannie was born in 1801 and grew up as a slave on the plantation of William Buckney on the Rappahannock river. When she reached the age of 100 years she received hundreds of letters from physicians asking her for her rules of life. She replied that she never wore low-necked dresses or short sleeves. For years she had smoked a blackened old clay pipe. THE LAST SLAVE AUCTION The last slave auction held in this country occurred a year and half before the war—in October, 1859—at the race track at Savannah. The slaves were the property of Pierce Butler, a picture-sque and prominent figure at that day in Philadelphia society, who is to-day only remembered as having been the husband of Fanny Kemble, the actress, reader and author. His family name was Mease, but he inherited a fortune in lands and slaves from his grandfather, Maj. Pierce Butler, of South Carolina, on condition that he should take the latter's name. Butler's inveterate passion for gambling got him into financial difficulties. It is said that he lost $26,000 on a single hand—four deuces against four kings held by his opponent. Finally to meet his losses Butler was forced to sell his slaves. There were 998 of them in all. The sale took two days and netted $303,850. Butler had chosen a good time to sell. A year later his Negroes would not have been worth a dollar a head. But the sale would have been more profitable had it not been announced as one of the conditions that no divisions of families would be permitted; hence in order to secure a good slave buyers often had to take with them infirm or aged relatives. Out of this limitation grew a memorable tragedy. Tom Plate, a well known Vicksburg trader, bought at the sale a man, his two sisters and his wife, with the guarantee that they should not be separated. Disregarding this, Pate sold the sisters, one to Pat Somers, a brother trader, and the other to a resident of St. Louis. What legal rights a Negro had in the South were well pro- NO. 43. tected. Somers was told of the contract, and he sent the girls back to Pate and demanded his money. A quarrel was the result and Somers was shot dead. Ten days later his nephew killed Pate and died from wounds received. The feud was kept up until every male bearing the name of Pate was wiped out, and then the war liberated the sisters.—New York Herald. Grand Junction Notes. Miss Dora Newman is on the sick list.

August H. Hennings, former city treasurer of Omaha, Neb., and a candidate for mayor of the city at the last republican primaries, recently killed himself by shootin Professor of Cambridge (Eng.) Uni- J. Stanley Gardiner, of Cambridge university, has been exploring the Indian ocean and gives it as his opinion that at one time there was land connection between Ceylon and Madagascar. But it is in describing the wonders of the deep that his report grows most interesting. "A very considerable variety of deep-sea fish was brought up," he says. "At least half the number we secured seemed quite new specimens, and, I believe, are not described in any textbook. Some of these had enormous eyes, some only rudimentary eyes, the size of a pin's head, while some had no eyes at all. "One of the most interesting discoveries we made was that floating life is exceedingly abundant at all depths down to about 1,200 fathoms in seas 2,500 fathoms deep. By floating life I mean animals which form the food of whales and deep-ocean fish, and which up to the present have been believed to live on or very close to the surface. A variety of enormous squids was fished out as well as jelly fish and gigantic prawns fully six inches long. Some of these latter were blind, while others had huge eyes, but nearly all of them had phosphorescent organs, which would naturally be due to the fact that they live at a depth where almost total darkness prevails. "The blind varieties had enormous feelers, or tentacles, some of them extending to twice the length of their own bodies. Some forms, such as the water flea, which is only about the size of a pin's head in surface water, we discovered six or ten times that size in 600 or 700 fathoms." Laundry work at home would be much more satisfactory if the right Starch were used. In order to get the desired stiffness, it is usually necessary to use so much starch that the beauty and fineness of the fabric is hidden behind a paste of varying thickness, which not only destroys the appearance, but also affects the wearing quality of the goods. This trouble can be entirely overcome by using Defiance Starch, as it can be applied much more thinly because of its greater strength than other makes. New Fruit of Value. A new fruit that seems likely to prove of considerable value has been developed by the cultivation of the very familiar "maypop," a plant which is very familiar in the southern states, quite ornamental, easily grown from seeds and affords a handsome cover for arbors and verandas. It is known to botanists as passiflora incarnata. The fruit in its improved form is somewhat bigger than a hen's egg and decidedly palatable. It looks like a May apple. The extraordinary popularity of fine white goods this summer makes the choice of Starch a matter of great importance. Defiance Starch, being free from all injurious chemicals, is the only one which is safe to use on fine fabrics. Its great strength as a stiffener makes half the usual quantity of Starch necessary, with the result of perfect finish, equal to that when the goods were new. British Colonial Order. The order of St. Michael and St. George, the chapel of which was dedicated in St. Paul's cathedral, London, the other day, is the order conferred on British colonists, distinguished or otherwise. The lowest rank in the order carries the letters C. M. G. after the owner's name. Flippant Londoners translate this "Colonial Made Gentlemen." Wants International Observatory Prof. Edward C. Pickering, of the Harvard observatory, proposes to establish an international observatory.

Some people regard a collection plate as a slot machine in which they drop a dime in the hope of getting a dollar's worth of religion.

"The wife struggles to keep up appearances and the husband struggles to keep down expenses." Give Defiance Starch a fair trial—try it for both hot and cold starching, and if you don't think you do better work, in less time and at smaller cost, return it and your grocer will give you back your money.

Diseases of Woman's Organism Cured and Consequent Pain Stopped by Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. "It seems as though my back would break." Women utter these words over and over again, but continue to drag along and suffer with aches in the small of the back, pain low down in the side, "bearing-down" pains, nervousness and no ambition for any task. Miss Maude Morris They do not realize that the back is the mainspring of woman's organism, and quickly indicates by aching a diseased condition of the female organs or kidneys, and that the aches and pains will continue until the cause is removed. Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound has been for many years the one and only effective remedy in such cases. It speedily cures female and kidney disorders and restores the female organs to a healthy condition. "I have suffered with female troubles for over two years, suffering intense pain each month, my back ached until it seemed as though it would break, and I felt so all over that I did not find strength to attend to my work but had to stay in bed a large part of the first two or three days every month. I would have sleepless nights, bad dreams and headaches. All this undermined my health. "We consulted an old family physician, who advised that I try Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. I began taking it regularly and sc-"n found that I could sleep and eat better unan I had done for months. I was able to suffer from backache or pain."-Miss Maude Morris, Sec.

Denver—TQe Elks’ convention clect- ed grand lodge officers Tuesday, as foi- lows: Grand Exalted Ruler—Henry A. Mel- vin of Oakland, California. Grand Esteemed Leading Knight— Robert L.

The offices of grand esquire, grand chaplain, grand inner and outer guards are appointive offices to be named by the incoming grand exalted ruler. Without a single exception the elec- tion of grand lodge officers of the Elks went through according to the slate at the first business session of the grand lodge held in the Tabor Grand opera house Tuesday afternoon. Many of the old officers were retained ana re- elected by acclamation. In only three instances were there more than one candidate. These were for grand es: teemed leading knight, grand esteemed royal knight and grand esteemed lec: turing knight. ° Contrary to expectations, Judge Judge Henry A. Melvin of Oakland, California, had no opposition in his candidacy for the office of grand ex- alted ruler. It was expected that the friends of Dr. W. H. Haviland of Butte, Montana, would name their favorite when the nominations for the office were called for, but the doctor had suc- cessfully spiked his friends’ eathus: iasm and Judge Melvin was elected by acclamation. Figures compiled by the registration committee at headquarters at 10 o'clock Tuesday night, showed that 5,000 Elks had registered their names during the day. This makes tho total number on the registration list to date, approximately 20,000 Elks alone. With the 20,000 registered names of Elks at the Stout street headquarters, there is also a list of the names of wives and daughters of the antlered brothers, which last night numbered 6,500, It can be safely said that in- cluding Elks and others, there are now 40,000 visitors in Denver, which num- ber will be largely increased within the next two days.

Gunnison Tunnel Penetrates Masses of Sea Shells. Washington.—The reclamation ser- vice heard Tuesday that headings 3 and 4 of the Gunnison tunnel have been brought together finally. ‘The most disagreeable part of the work is now over. ‘This is the portion under the broad valley of Cedar creek, where the tun- nel has been for nearly a mile in the river sands and gravels and soft shale. Heading No. 4 was driven from an out- let in the valley and No. 3 from a shaft 2 mile away. ‘The completion of this portion of the work leaves it possible to concentrate on headings No. and No. 2, which are under the main portion cf the moun- tain. In No. 1 the material is hard red- dish quartz or coarse granite, chang- ing to mica schist. In this portion progress has been upwards of tweive feet a day, while in the softer black shale in heading No. 2 progress has been more than twenty-five feet a day. ‘An another section work is being de layed by a curious condition. ‘The tun- nel, now more than a mile under ground, has been driven rapidly through hard black shale. ‘The head- ing now has advanced to a point where it is passing through a great accumula- tion of sea shells. Thousands upon thousands of them imbedded in rock are being dug out, some of them of gi- gantic size, upwards of three feet or even more in diameter. ‘The process of excavating the shells is easy but for the fact that they ren: der the ground treacherous. A few ot the large ones imbedded in the roof make a point of weakness, and without warning a mass of a hundred pounds or even several tons of black shale carrying shells may be precipitated upon the workmen. “THE COLORADO ROAD?

Cheyenne, Wyoming. — Registration for lands in the Shoshone or Wind River Indian reservation commenced at Shoshoni, Lander, Thermopolis and Worland at § o'clock Monday. ‘he weather was perfect. Large crowds were in attendance at all booths and upward of 1,500 persons had registered when the books were closed at 6 o'clock last night. Of ‘this number 500 were at Sho- shoni, 600 at Worland, 300 at Lander and about 100 at Thermopolis. The Grst person to register at Shoshoni was Miss Mattie Fuhrmann of Denver, who was followed by Hdwin Burke of Lost Cabin, Wyoming. The first person to register at Worland was Miss Anna Patton of Minnetaka, Illinois, who was followed by Miss Christiana Gerber of Worland. The registration at Shoshont is be- ing conducted under the personal su- pervision of W. A. Richards, commis- sioner general of the land effice at Washingion, D. C. He will visit Lan ger, Thermopolis and Worland later. He is assisted at Shoshoni by F. W. Staley and a large force of clerks from Washington. At Worland Chief Clerk Mayer is in charge and is assisted by several clerks, At Shoshoni the crowd was so large early in the day that Commissioner Richards formed the applicants in a line. All of the registration towns are well policed. No trouble has occurred and none is anticipated. ‘The railroads are assisting the citl- zens in entertaining the crowds. The Chicago & Northwestern officials esti- mate that between thirty and forty thousand home-seekers will pass over that road to Shoshoni and Lander. As- sistant General Passenger Agent Buck- ingham of the Burlington says that his road will haul 20,000 people to Wor. land. The Burlington will run two pas: senger trains into Worland daily, and the Northwestern will run at least three and possibly four trains daily. MODERN CROESUS DIES, Richest Englishman Succumbs te Stroke of Avoniexy, London. — Alfred Beit, the ‘Well. known South African financier, died Monday. He had been in bad health for some time, Barly in 1903 Beit had an apopleptic stroke while at Johan nesburg and it appears that he never fully regained his health. Since that time he had lived in London. Belt, who is sald to have been the richest man in London and who con trolled the output of gold in South Af rlea, was at one time alleged to be forming a “gold trust,” in which the names of prominent American finan ciers were mentioned. He gave large sums of money to the Red Cross and other institutions and recently donated $500,000 to found a university at Ham burg. Belt was born in 1853 at Hamburg He was a life governor of the De Beer: Contolldated mines, a partner in th firm of Wernher, Beit & Co,, and a di tector of the Rand mines. " Rhodests failways, Bechuanaland railway trust Consolidated company, Bultfoneteir mine and British Chartered South Af rican company. He controlled the output and price ot the world’s diamond industry, had « great distate for notoriety, was popu Jar with his intimates and was usually referred to as the “little man.” Beit, who was a stanch friend of Cecil Rhodes, arrived in South Africa several years ahead of the latter and when he died was by far the largest in dividual owner of mines and lands in South Africa. ELKS WELCOMED, Official Ceremonies at Tabor Operz iicciae in Denver. i Denver.—Members of the great or- ganization, Benevolent Protective Or. der of Etks, have been officially wel: comed to Denver and the state of Col- oiado. Ever since they first began arriv- ing they have been made to feel that they are welcome. Now they have been told so by the governor of the state, the mayor of the city and the official representatives of Denver lodge. This formality occurred Monday night at the Tabor Grand opera house in the sresenee of a mighty audience. In a few hours of the morning the puntings that had been disarranged by the rains were quickly put in order and the decorating of houses and stores Went on at a rapid rate. The streets were packed and jammed with people from an early hour until well into night. By the chairman of the Elks’ recep: ton committee at the depot, who has made a special effort to keep. count on the number of arrivals, it was stated at 10 o'clock Monday night that 40,000 people had passed through the city’s gates since Friday. ‘This was his es timate of the number of visitors who had come to Denver to attend the con. vention, Other estimates place the number at 25,000, and this may be re- garded as conservative. In the opinion of those who have been assigned to the depot, {t is stated that approximately 70,000 visitors will ‘be brought to Denver for the conyen- tion, as the rush of visitors will not cease until after Thursday night, at ‘the latest. Denver Policeman Shot. Denver—In a fight with an unknown holdup Policeman Henry Barr, twenty- five years old, was shot and seriously wounded by the thug whom he was at- tempting to arrest, shortly before mid- night Monday night, in front of the chile parior of Frank Baldwin, at 850 Santa Fe avenue, where the officer had been cating.

Seruggs, D.D., fourteen years president of Western College, Macon, Missouri, has resigned from the institution he has made great and far-famed as a practical school for the education of colored youth by his strong personality and deep interest in the young people of the race. President Seruggs is a graduate of Lincoln Institute and University of Chicago and his work at Macon stamps him a preacher, orator and educator of great power. He has a fine personality, granite character and modern pedagogical and technical training and an experience that fits him to be a useful man. Just now Colorado has several pulpits made vacant by recent changes and the Colorado Statesman, desiring to make this state the haven for the best men and women in all lines of usefulness, ventures to suggest to the church at Colorado Springs to secure Prof. Seruggs if possible. The editor's acquaintance and respect for President Seruggs RIVERS TWO .... prompts this suggestion and we are certain the St. John's church at Colorado Springs will find him a strong preacher and a representative man and the state will be proud to have him in our midst. While Missouri will hesitate to give him over, yet his coming to us will be a great gain to Colorado. What will Colorado Springs do about it? DENVER POLITICAL MUDDLE Four political parties in Denver: How does that strike you? Two Republican parties, two Democratic. Who is right and who is wrong? That is the question the average voter is called upon to decide. There are no doubt unscrupulous Republicans and treacherous Democrats in either faction, and the question may now be asked, "Does it pay to swap horses in the middle of the stream?" As time goes on the atmosphere is certain to clear; for this reason Negro voters should not express themselves too freely in favor of one faction or another, but study the situation clearly and get the truth in the matter. We know the Republicans are the party of progress, but it is that faction of the Roosevelt-Taft type, and not the mossbacks that are the most friendly to the Negro as a whole. We doubt not that certain individuals of the race have personal friends on the other side, but is this not the proper time to sink self and selfishness out of sight and work for the benefit of the race. The faction that believes in the whole Negro people rather than a certain few Negroes to get our whole support. The party is now in a process of washing itself, and the Negro's interest ought to be given to the faction that shows the cleanest bill of goods. The Republican party is not a dead one for the reason that it shows inherent vitality sufficient to purify and reform itself, and any man or party that displays that power has a future. It is not our fight, but the battle of the leaders; let them fight it out and when the din and smoke has cleared will be time enough to ask "Where are we at?" and then use our influence to lift the regenerated faction into position and power. FREE SPEECH IN NORTH CAROLINA. Secretary of War Taft has demonstrated one thing tangible as well as encouraging, and that is that southern prejudice is beginning to crack, and in the rift free speech, common sense, facts and sanity may get a hearing. This in itself is optimistic. The South for a score of years has been so closeted with the spectre of Negro domination and state sovereignty that it has forgotten to be free, national or even civil. Now the cloud is seen to be lifting and the sunlight of common sense is beaming on their cities and hills. Secretary of War Taft seems to be the glittering luminary to send their rays into their midst and instead of frowns and fears and misgivings the South awakens to find his advice wholesome and beneficial. At Greensboro, North Carolina, July 9th, on occasion of the eve of the Republican convention the secretary delivered a speech that opens a new era in southern politics. He sharply arraigned southern state legislatures for depriving the Negro of the ballot by a system of laws which ostensibly were framed to operate against ignorance in both races, but enforced against the blacks only. He cited political changes in Maryland, West Virginia, Kentucky and Missouri to show that these states are breaking away from the solid South and seeking political and industrial freedom. That the southern business men held in the grasp of Democracy could not express their opinions on things most advantageous to themselves. That they were compelled to vote for representatives and executives not of their choice but of the Democratic party. As these words of Secretary Taft will be read by tens of thousands of southern people who have no personal recollection of slavery or the war, neither fear Negro domination or Yankee rule but who believe that justice and fairness are fundamental for national, state and business success, they are bound to do good. The solid South is bound to break. The days of the Vardamans, Tillmans and Davises are near at hand. The power that made for cleansing of insurance, packing houses, etc., is now turning attention to southern politics and reform will soon to be felt there as everywhere else and Roosevelt and the party that does things will be seen and felt behind the movement. May the good work continue. LAWYER STUART'S GREAT VICTORY. Give the Negro professional man and woman a chance was exemplified in the work of Attorney Joseph H. Stuart last week in acquitting George Turner. Attorney Stuart's client was charged with the murder of Police Officer John Spellman, June 18th. The entire police department was bent on convicting Turner of the murder. Without money, without friends or help of any kind, Attorney Stuart accepted the case that white lawyers shook their heads at and refused. Everybody expected a verdict of capital punishment, but so adroitly and carefully was the trial presented to the court, and such a lucid, strong and convincing argument presented to the jury that in less than thirty minutes the jury returned a verdict of acquittal and the prisoner was exonerated. Attorney Stuart's address to the jury was a masterly effort and white and colored alike are commenting on his logic, erudition, oratory and compass of fact and jurisprudence. The People's Sunday alliance never showed its justification for existence to better effect than in its interest in this case. The Alliance stands for justice, not favors; for right, not might; for protection of the innocent and the punishment of the guilty. It is not a blind, a cover for subterfuge for masked hypocrisy to hide under, but an institution organized for the purpose of getting at the facts and securing justice. The Alliance has stood to a man behind Attorney Stuart in this case. It has encouraged and bid him go forward, and last Sunday, though Lawyer Stuart was not present, and though he made no request, a donation was made to him. Several citizens, whose names we are not permitted to use, contributed to a fund that Lawyer Stuart's services may not go unrewarded. This shows manliness on the part of our citizens. George Turner was nothing to the Alliance, not even a citizen, only a stranger in Denver, but nevertheless humanity and fairness demanded that he, like other men, be given an impartial trial. How many other colored men, whom others have combined to convict, if given justice would to-day be free? The Colorado Statesman would say to George Turner, be a man, industrious and sober, or leave the state. This advice applies to all vagrants, gamblers and easy livers. The Al- liance has and is doing its duty in helping to rid the community of undesirable characters, but to our fellow citizen, Joseph H. Stuart, we have only words of praise for his honest, courageous and stalwart manhood. K OFFICIAL PRIZE OF THE 5TH SEASON Grand Lodge of Colorado Jurisdiction Of N. A., S. A., E., A.

APPROXITE POST OFFICE RSION RINGS, July 26th Every odd Garment] To Go THE GREAT COLORADO CHAUTAUQUA. The Colorado Chautauqua is an institution whose name has become known in every part of the South and West. Its grounds are located on the Colorado & Southern railway, at the edge of Boulder. The Chautauqua opens July 4th, each year, and continues for five weeks. The greatest lecturers, educators, entertainers and musicians of America appear upon the platform. The location of the Chautauqua is unsurpassed for beauty and healthfulness. Imagine a table land covering 300 acres on the eastern side of a vast mountain chain, whose summits are tipped with everlasting snow. On the right nature has formed a mighty chasm, whose recesses are lost in the dome of the continent. On the left, a mile away and 500 feet below, nestles the loveliest little city in America. In front is spread out a mighty plain extending away toward the boundless prairies. At the foot of the level mesa on which the surprised and delighted beholder stands, is an enchanting valley, whose carpet of emerald extends as far as the eye can reach to the north, and from which arise the sounds of the farm, the gentle lowing of cattle, the faint bark of a dog or the distant rumble of a train of cars, slowly threading its way toward the limitless horizon. The secree is one of entrancing beauty. It lulls to restful meditation, and as the eye drinks in the infinite softness of mountain and plain, and the physical senses absorb the balmy sweetness of the atmosphere, the spirit is involuntarily lifted in adoration of the Mighty Power which created the surprising vision. Most Chautauquans are students; hence, the Chautauqua Summer School. An effort is made to meet as nearly as possible all the demands of those in attendance. The institution is of a popular character, interesting and practical, thorough and progressive. The instructors are all men and women of recognized standing who lend inspiration to those who attend their classes. The work should appeal very strongly to teachers who are anxious to have an outing and at the same time feel they must pursue a definite line of study to better fit them for their next year's work. To them are offered opportunities for review of the common branches, for work in psychology and pedagogy, in primary methods, in literature, and many other branches of study. Others will find real delight and relaxation in the Woman's Council, the literary and art lectures and other classes told of in this announcement.

Paris.—The scene of tumultuous dis- order which marked the enactment Friday of the law restoring Alfred Dreyfus to the army was followed by a bloody duel, in which Under Secre- tary of State Sarraut was dancerously wounded by the sword of M. Puglies!- Conti. The duel assumed tho aspect of a veritable combat between the gov- ernment and the opposition, as M. Sar- raut’s seconds were Ministers Clemen- ceau and Thompson, while M. Pugliest- Conti's were M. Millevoye and General Jacquet, drawn from the clements which bitterly resist the goyernment’s rehabilitation of Dreyfus. The meeting followed a fight on the floor of the Chamber of Deputies, in which M. Sarraut sprang from beside Minister Clemenceau, sitting on tho ministerial benches on M, Pusltesi- (Conti, who had been heaping denuncia- ‘tion on the members of the govern- ‘ment as scoundrels. Sarraut struck Pugliesi-Conti a stunning blow in the face, A scene of the wildest uproad en- sued, compelling the suspension of the session. It was after the close of the wession that the duel occurred. The late reports show that M. Sarraut is suffering from a deep wound in the right breast, penetrating tho lung. While the wound is considered to be serious, it is not dangerous. Despite this sanguinary conflict, laws were finally enacted by the Chamber of Deputies reinstating Drey- fus, who obtains the rank of a chief of squadron of artilley and Picquart, who 1s made a brigadier general. Both houses were overwhelmingly favorable to Dreyfus and Picquart. Throughout the day feeling was stirred intensely between the Dreyfus and anti:Dreytus elements, This was heightened by flerce attacks by Drey- fusists against General Mercier and other officers who were responsible for Dreyfus’ condemnation, Early in the day Minister of War Etienne presented the government bills restoring Dreyfus and Picquart to the army. Minister Etienne’s explan- atory preamble to the Dreyfus bill sald: “A decision has judicially and defin- ftely established the innocence of the accused, involving ipse facto his rein- statement in the army and expunging his condemnation. The governmont, powerless to repay the immense mate: rial and moral injury sustained by the victim of a deplorable judicial error, desires to place Dreyfus in the situa- tion he would have occupfed ff his nor- mal career had not been interrupted.” The preamble to the Picquart bill zald: \ “Proclamation of the innocence of Dreyfus demonstrates the legitimacy of Picquart’s loyal and courageous ef- forts for the triumph of truth at the risk of definitely breaking his career, ‘We demand that Parliamen: expunge the effects of his action by the con- ferment of the rank of brigadier with priority over other brigadiers.” The army committee quickly and unanimously reported the bill and tho vote in the chamber was decisive, Dreyfus securing 473 votes against 42, and Picquart 467 votes against 27. The chamber also voted to transfer the body of Emils Zola to the Pan- theon. The Senate also had an exciting ses- ston in connection with the Dreyfus rehabilitation bill, which was passed by 183 votes against 30. The result was grected with enthusiastic ap- plause. The Picquart bill was passed by the Senate by 185 to 26. Than those in effect on the Burlington. We guarantee our rates to be as low as the lowest. Chicago and back, $31.50—June 1, 2, 9 to 16.

Denver—Good news for those coun- ties in Colorado in which the national forest reserves are located has come to Governor McDonald in the form of a communication from Secretary Jame communication from Secretary James Wilson: of the Department of Agricul- ture at Washington. The secretary lannounces that the money is ready under the biN of June 30th, granting ten per cent. of the receipis from the forest reserves to the state of Colo- rado, the money to be apportioned by the Legislature to the various coun: tiles which embrace the reserves. The money, under the act, must be expended by the counties forthe main- tenance of schools and public roads. ‘The income from the reserves in- creases greatly each year, as the value of the lands, leases and rentals in- crease, and it is stated that eyentually there will be*suficient income from this source alone to keep up the county. schools. The total-eollected from the forest seserves in Colorado during the last discal year was $125,417.93, and ten per cent. of this amount, states Secretary Wilson, will be forwarded to Golorado, this being $12,541.79. t PHONE MAIN 4956 OPEN TILL 2 O’CLOCK A.

Davis, the general man- ager of the Yak Mining Company. This ends a fight which has been going on for a year for a reduction of light rates. The contract with the Boett- cher Electric Light Company expired last March and after considerable dick- ering, Davis, representing the Yak company, which owns a large power plant east of the vity, agreed to enter into the race for a franchise, but, in- sisted that it should be placed before the pebple for endorsement, The new franchise, granted for twenty years, provided for the reduction of ght charges from twenty-five to fifty per SOCORRO EARTHQUAKE. New Mexican Town Gets Severe Shak- inasc. Wl Paso, Texas.—Socorro, New Mex- ico, south of Santa Fe, has been badly damaged by an earthquake. Fifty-two shocks haye been felt since Sunday morning up to Wednesday night. The court house is wrecked. ‘The build- ings of the School of Mines are cracked and nearly every residence in the city is crumbling or wrecked. More than two-thirds of them at least are damaged or destroyed. ' The court house, which is largely of adobe and brick, is almost shaken to pieces. The people are fleeing, but no one has been killed. The Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe Railway has sent box cars to Socorro to take people away, and many have fled already to other towns. Huge boulders have jarred down or the railroad track and trains cannot enter the town. ‘Thev stop several miles outside the place. ‘The water in the hot springs near Socorro has increased several degrees in temperature and the inhabitants fear that the ancient extinct volcano ten miles from the town will break out and begin spurting lava again. The people are fleeing without any- thing, locking up their houses ani get- ting out as soon as they can. ‘The entire surrounding country bas felt the shocks and much damage has been done, especially at San Marcia and Magdalena, but not so severe!y as So- corro. A cloudburst occurred near Carls- bad, New Mexico, Wednesday, and three inches of rain fell in an hour. All streams and canons are overflow: ing and there will be much damage to crops and fields. DEATH OF LADY CURZON. Wife of Former Viceroy of India Dies in London. London.—Lady Curzon of Kedles- ton, wife of the former viceroy of In- dia, who had been ill for some days, died at 5:40 o'clock Wednesday even: ing. She never quite recovered from her serious illness at Walmer castle, Kent, in 1904, and the recent hot weather brought on a pronounced at- tack of general debility. Lady Curzon was miss Mary Leiter daughter of the late Levi Z. Leiter of Chicago. Lady Curzon was in her own right the possessor of $3,000,000, From Chi- cago the Leiter family moved to Wash- ington and later traveled extensively and entertained lavishly. During her stay in England, Miss Leiter met George N. Curzon, eldest ‘son of the Rey. Alfred Nathaniel Holden Curzon, fourth baron of Scarsdale. They were married in 1895, after Curzon had held the offices of assistant private secre- tary to the Marquis of Salisbury, un- der secretary of state for India and un- der secretary of state for foreign af- fairs.

Next Elks’ Convention Goes to the Quaker City. Denyer.—Ending one of the most ex- citing campaigns ever waged within the ranks of the Elks, Philadelphia was finally chosen Wednesday as the meeting place of the grand lodge in 1907. The result of the vote as it was officially announced shortly _ before noon yesterday stood: Philadelphia, 495; Baltimore, 265. All the forenoon was occupied in weighing the two cities in the balance, and it was not until nearly noon that final result of the contest was an- nounced. For just a second after the teller had given the figures there was a breathless silence. Then the crowd broke loose. With a roar which shook the windows of the building they gave a mighty cheer: “Hurrah for Philadelphia!” ‘Then another rousing shout, and the Philadelphia delegates and their boost- ers arose and filed out of the room. The word had preceded them to the street in front of the opera house, however, and already Cook’s Drum ‘corps had struck up the tune: “There'll Be a Hot time in the Old Town To-night.” The Philadelphia bunch of boosters were all there, some of them being compelled to await the glad tidings on the outside. But when it did come they proceeded with their part with alac- rity. With Cook’s Drum Corps at the head of the procession the entire dele- gation, men and women, numbering 150, paraded the business streets, ring- Ing their Liberty bells and proclaiming to all the world’ that “There are no slow Elks in Philadelphia.” The occasion was indeed a joyous one for the Quakers. Philadelphia was “it” throughout the rest of the day, and the members were smiling slyly but happily as they received the congratulations of their brothers. Land Board Proceedings. Denyer.—The State Land Board has passed a resolution which gives to the city of Denver for all time a strip of land to be used as an esplanade at City park, The board granted the Arkan- sas Valley Railway Company a right of way through state lands in a part of Otero county. Seven tracts of state land are to be crossed by the railway which is to open a new sugar beet dis- trict. The application of Harry W. An- derson for a lease upon 240 acres of coal land belonging to the state in Las Animal county was turned down. This land belongs to the State Agricultural College. Plans for Channel Tunnel.

Parlia- mentary sanction for the scheme will be sought st the next sassiop THE SCIENCE OF LIVING. Dr. George F. Butler Tells How to Eat and How to As- gimilate. Dr. George F. Butler, medical super: Intendent of the Alma Springs Sani- tarium, Alma, Mich., in the October number of “How to Live,” gives some interesting as ‘well as sensible rules for acquiring and keeping health. He says: “Without we eat and drink, we die! The provocative to do both rests with the appetite, which, in process of time, becomes a very uncertain guide; for the palate will often induce a desire and relish for that which is most mischievous and indigestible. ‘The old saying of ‘eat what you like’ is now shunned by everybody of 20 years’ experience. Still, without appe- tite, it is a very difficult affair to sub- sist—for the pleasure depends chiefly upon the relish. ‘The relish may be- come, as has been stated, a vitiated one, but it is quite possible to make the stomach, by a little forbearance and practice, as enamored of what is wholesome and nutritious, as of that which is hurtful and not concoctible.” Again he says: “The delicate should feed carefully, not abundantly; it is not quantity which nourishes, but only that which assimilates.” “Be careful of your digestion” 1s the keynote of the doctor's argument. He says: “Health in man, as in other animals, depends upon the proper per- formance of all functions. These functions may be shortly said to be three: (1) tissue change; (2) re- moval of waste; (3) supply of new material. For the activity of man, like the heat of the fire by which he cooks his food, is maintained by combustion; and just as the fire may be prevented from burning brightly by improper disposition of the fuel, or imperfect supply of air, and as it wil! certainly go out if fresh fuel is not supplied, and may be choked by its own ashes, so man’s activity may be lessened by imperfect tissue change and may be put an end to by an in- sufficient supply of new material and imperfect removal of waste products. “We should see to it that free elim- ination is maintained, for the ashes must be kept out of the system in or- der to have good health. The skin, kidneys and bowels must do their eliminative work properly. If the bowels occasionally become torpid, try to regulate them with exercise and proper food, such as fruits, green vegetables, salads, cereals, corn, whole wheat or graham bread, fish, poultry, light soups, etc. Plenty of water is also valuable, and a glass full of cold or hot water the first thing upon ris- ing in the morning will aid much in overcoming constipation. Regular habit, cold baths, and massage are very efficacious. In case the constt- pation does not yield to these hygi- enic measures, some simple, harmless laxative may be required, such as Calt- fornfa Syrup of Figs—a non-frritating Preparation of senna in fig syrup. Laxative mineral waters are bene- ficial In some cases, but not to be em- ployed continually. “Above all be an optimist, keep the heart young. Gultivate kindness, cheerfulness and love, and do not for- get that ‘we shall pass through this world but once.’ Any good thing, therefore, that we do, or any kind- ness that we show to any human be- ing, let us do it now. Let us not defer it or neglect it, for we shall not pass this way again.” ‘The parson was talking to little El- mer about his habits, and asked him what time he was usually called for breakfast. “They don’t have to call me,” answered Elmer. “I'm always Johnny-on-the-spot.”” In Washington to Study Fish.

E. Rob- ertson, of 197 Addison street, Washing. ton, Pa. “This was over two years ago. My stomach was in bad shape. After eating I would have to rest awhile or I would suffer the most severe pains in my stomach, On arising I would often be so dizzy that I could hardly stand up. ‘The slightest exertion would start my back aching so that I often had to sit down and rest awhile. At times I ex. perienced a pain around the heart which alarmed me but which I suppose cane from my stomach trouble. “I began to break out on the face with pimples aud later with boils which con- Tuned ane to the house a. week or move et atime, One day I saw Dr. Williams* Pink Pills for Pale People advertised in a amphlet which was leftat the door and Piicught 1 would give them a tral ot took several boxes of the pills before all the pimples and boils left mo, but Lam now glad to say that my blood is good.

The only food I have eaten dur- eo month has been eleven pounds of ‘Tuts (brazils and pecans) 13 cents’ worth of peanuts (roasted) and one pound of raisins. Some of this I shared with friends.

Coarse sacking, evidently the clothing of the ancient Inca workman, was found with the body, as were also two mallets, one fashioned out of granite and the other out of iron. stone. These implements were tied with thongs tied into bent sticks made as double handles. Both the hide and the wood were as fresh looking when found as if they had been in use only the day before.

Skill and Talent Command Greater Rewards Than Ever in World’s History, In these days the surgeon who 1s master of his science receives fees which would hayastartled the surgeons and the public 50 years ago. A fee of $10,000 is not uncommon for an Op- eration which can be performed in comparatively little time. Of course, $10,000 is not the maximum fee. There are cases, it is stated, in which as much as $25,000 has been paid. When life is hanging by a thread the question of fees is im- material. The average man will give all that he has, if required, to get a new lease of life through the sur- geon's skill. A famous throat spe- ‘cialist was once summoned from London to treat the father of the present kaiser. He remained only a lfew days after making a diagnosis. He rendered no bill, but it is said the German government gave him’ a fee which represents half a year's earnings of the specialist, who had a very large income from his profes: sion. Even the literary man receives large fees for his work. Mr. John Morley, it has been stated, Was paid $50,000 to write the “Life of Glad- stcne.” Certainly, great skill and talent neyer commanded greater re- wards than they do now. It is an era of big things. WMisdirected Fnerev_ Frances, a girl of 13, was destined by her mother to be a fine musician. While still a little child she was taught to read the notes, and her tiny fingers were placed on the key- board. Year in and year out the child was obliged to practice, and she acquired a measured amount of skill, but her playing was wooden and spiritless. In despair, her moth: er said to her: “What do you ex- pect to be when you are grown up?” The girl sighed. “When I am grown up, mother, if I have a house of my own, the first thing I shall do will be to order the piano chopped up for kindling wood. I want to be a doctor,” As time passed musical studies were dropped, and duly Frances went to the medical college. At last she was allowed liberty to grow in her own proper. direction.

OUTDOOR LiFE Will Not Offset the Ill Effects of Coffee ‘When One Cannot Digest It, A farmer says: “It was not from liquor or tobacco that for ten years or more I suffered from dyspepsia and stomach trouble, they were caused by the use of coffee until I got so bad I had to give up coffee entirely and almost give up eat: ing. There were times when I could eat only boiled mills and bread and when I went to the field to work I had to take some bread and butter along to give me strength. ; “I doctored with doctors and took almost everything I could get for my stomach in the way of medicine, but if I got any better it only lasted a lit- tle while until I was almost a walking skeleton. “One day I read an ad for Postum and told my wife I would try it, and as to the following facts I will make affidavit before any judge: “I quit coffee entirely and used Postum in its place. I have regained my health entirely and can eat any- thing that is cooked to eat. I have increased in weight until now I weigh more than I ever did; I have not taken any medicine for my stomach since I began using Postum. Why, I believe Postum will almost digest an fron wedge. ’ “My family would stick to coffee at first, but they saw the effects it had on me, and when they were fee‘ing bad they began to use Postum, one at a time, until now we all use Postum.” Name given by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich. ‘Ten days’ trial of Postum in place of coffee proves the truth, an easy and pleasant way. “There's a reason.” ' Look in pkgs. for a copy of the fa: mous little book, “The Road to Well- “yille.”” COLORADO NEWS ITEMS The following new postmasters have been appointed: William H.

Owing to the fact that they were able to prove an alibi District Attorney Van Horn, in the District Court at Greeley, dismissed the cases against Tom O'Neill, Sam Scoville and Frank Meter, charged with complicity in the murder of Jack Boyle, April 13 last.

Hundreds of cattle are lying dead on the plains in the eastern part of this county and surrounding territory because of the long continued drouth, says a Trindad dispatch to the Denv.r Republican.

At last we are finding some excellent models of Princess gowns, and the best of all have several rows of shirring at the waist line, enough to do away with any sharp outlining of curve of hip and bust.

These are coat suits of pongee or khaki, with gay vest, skirt short, shirt-walst severely plain. In contrast is the autolist with love for luxury and feminine fripperies. --- BILLOWING PLUMES. weight and very light colored gray the summer girl wears a black and white linen frock, white ground with big black spots; made with Peter Pan waist and neat untrimmed skirt. She wears an immense black taffeta bow in her hair and a white sailor with black velvet band. Few are the high stocks seen nowadays, the round Dutch neck taking their place. A light-haired girl looks well in olive green messaline silk, lightened a bit with Cluny lace; the neck cut just low enough to be suitable for the street and a band of olive wool, a shirt-waist of sheer white stuff, a cool-looking, simple white hat, thrown back from which and forming a pretty background for face and hair, is a green lace veil. Of a morning velvet about the throat, the band fastening with an iridescent pearl buckle. A mother-of-pearl buckle is very suitable for a wash belt, and such a buckle comes with a slide for the back of the belt, a good idea, wash belts so apt to look mussy after one wearing. In the popularity of Princess and corselet skirt, belts are not so noticeable features of costumes as formerly, but when worn should be very carefully chosen, they give, or take from, style as much as any dress accessory. Mitts have come to their own again—the wonder is they ever go out of style, being so comfortable and yet discreetly veiling the arm and protecting it from sun and sollure. The long gloves having increased so in price, the average woman seizes gladly upon the more economical milt. There are very pretty lace mitts and lace gloves, these peek-a-boo hard-shuhe more admirable than the peek-a-boo waists that have flaunted their foolishness so long. One sees charming old-fashioned looking flowered muslins; gray tissue is sprigged with moss rosebuds; white lawn picked out in stiff little sprays of corn flowers. No colored ribbons with these, please; the trimming, just a little linen lace, or the use of soft white mull, introduced as necker and part of the sleeve. Her auto wrap, all white and voluminous, with immense sleeves, looks like an opera cloak. Her floating white chiffon vel add to the partified ensemble. When she alights for dinner at the country club and removes her wrap, there is disclosed a very elegant summer toilet, she looks all ready for the ball room. Now we come to the happy mean, the woman that likes automobiling for the pleasure of the ride rather than because autoing is "the thing;" and dresses neither in mannish fashion nor as if going to a dance—just in temperate apparel. And we confess E. N. Limebeck a personal liking for this woman. Her coat is long and sensible, quite covers her dress, but not of a startling sweep. It fits comfortably, the long lines follow the figure in a graceful way. The hat is close, the veil not too assertive. No need for this woman when the speed's put on to clutch hat and draperies; her costume was designed to withstand wind and weather. Pongee, linen, khaki are chosen for the dust coat, and for time of rain the manufacturers now have a sheeny satin that is well waterproofed. Gauntlets are worn with some of the suits, and the ordinary long gloves with the opera cloak sort of wrap. For the woman who drives the machine herself a gauntlet is the glow, to choose. --- S&N GARMENT STORE 925-16TH ST. — OPP.

Arrange in Reference to Use for Which Pieces Are Designed—Points About a Bedroom. The most comfortable chairs should be placed where there will be a good light for reading, by artificial light, if the room is to be used mostly in the evening, and if it is to be used as a morning room, center the attractions near the windows. A table where magazines or needlework can be laid down should be placed near a chair, not away off in a corner where they have no value. Again, tables should be selected that will not topple over if anyone passes quickly through the room. A large room is much easier to arrange than a small one, as suitable furniture can be arranged in such a manner that several groups of people can be entertained without the conversation being overheard by those near them. How many old-fashioned houses have the chairs set in stiff array around the walls, with long sofas on either side, so that a chair has to be drawn up for the occupant to converse with the victim on the sofa. It is not necessary to have to drag chairs around to make the room inviting, and these points should be borne in mind when it is furnished. In furnishing a bedroom we have fewer to consider. The bureau must be where the light is good in the daytime as well as by artificial light. The bed should be placed in such a way that the light will not strike the eyes in the early morning. This is not always easy to arrange, as frequently bedrooms have windows on two or more sides. In such cases it is well to have an extra shade of dark green on the window that throws light on the bed. Nowadays nobody that knows anything about furnishing fastens their curtains with loops. They should hang in soft, straight folds, and the up-to-date woman shortens her curtains if they have been made in the days when half a yard extra was allowed for looping.—Chicago Inter Ocean. HOW TO KEEP A HAT NICE A good hat should be well cared for, to keep it looking fresh. Not only must the hat itself be brushed carefully, but the trimming must be gone over; bows pulled up into shape, loose petals glued into flowers, and loose threads tightened. Flowers and leaves should be carefully wiped with a soft cloth; when colored flowers fade they can often be touched up with water-color paints and a camel's hair brush. Most hats now have trimming arranged under the brim, and they should always be raised up on a block or stand when put away, to avoid crushing. It is especially necessary to observe this care with a hat having a maline ruche under the brim at the back, says the Rural New Yorker. This material is quite perishable, and is likely to become very "mussy" after a short period of wear, unless handled carefully. We clean soiled white straw hats with oxalic acid, scrubbing with a toothbrush, and sopping up the moisture with a soft cloth, to avoid staining the straw. The acid burns colored straw, turning it in ugly red, so care must be exercised if cleaning a hat in which white and colored straw are combined. Copper Waste Basket The newest waste basket is a most artistic thing. It is of copper, burnished and polished to a high degree of luster, and showing in the front an inset of jade in large irregular form. The combination of the green tone of the ornament and the ruddy hue of the copper is most effective. One particular waste paper receptacle on this order was originally intended as a glorified coal hod, but a woman whose sense of fitness protested against the introduction of a willow basket in a richly furnished apartment where copper found the proper background, turned the coal hod to new use, and her example has been imitated by other women, who declare that there is an informal aspect about a willow basket that is not in keeping with the furnishings of certain rooms. In these copper receptacles there is an inner box of sheet iron, which is lifted out when the papers are to be disposed of Furniture Polish From Scotland comes this recipe for furniture polish, which might well be pasted in the scrapbook of every American housewife. All that polish can do to restore old, weatherbeaten household goods this will do, and much more than most put-up preparations can. Here is the formula: One cake beeswax, a cup of turpentine. Put beeswax in turpentine, let melt slowly. Remember that turpentine is highly inflammable, making it better to melt the mixture over a teakettle spout. If a flame is used this must be very low. When cold rub hard on the piece you wish to restore. Then rub with a piece of soft rag to polish. Summer Squash. A very pleasing way to serve summer squash is as follows: Wash two of them, pare and cut in pieces about an inch square. Cook them in boiling salted water until tender. Drain in a colander, pressing hard to extract all the water, turn into a bowl, and mash perfectly smooth. Beat two eggs ligh! and whip into a small cupful of rich sweet milk and a tablespoon of melted butter. Beat this mixture into the squash, season with salt and pepper, and turn into a greased baking dish. Sprinkle with breadcrumbs and bits of butter and bake until firm. --- Is Now Prepared To Do All Kinds of Job Printing? Commercial.
