DEAR FRIENDS:—I notice from your little notes, which are always thankfully received, that you are anxious to hear from us again. It seems to us, that we have, nothing new to write about, for we have very few changes, and it all seems like such an old story to us, we forget that others, in far-away lands, will be interested. I can say that our work is progressing nicely. We have about seventy-five in regular attendance at our Mission school, while in one of our out schools has about thirty. The attendance and interest is very good, and all are learning to read the English Bible nicely. At the Bible Reading held each afternoon, all the boys and their families attend, and there is quite a large class of young men and women studying for baptism. They are taught in this class, several months before they are baptized. Our farm work has progressed nicely and the yield of the crops, were all that could be expected. Although the wild pigs were so numerous and destroyed so much of our corn and peanuts, yet we have plenty of corn to feed our boys until corn time again, and there will be several tons for market. We have harvested over a ton of beans, and new beans are still growing. The boys have been digging peanuts for the past two weeks and still there are plenty more to be dug. We have six acres of sweet potatoes, we have been eating them for the past two months. The Lord has wonderfully blessed us in all of our efforts. Our vegetable garden is not much anymore, as the seed we brought out with us, finished long ago, and the seeds which we get here that come from London, are neither a very desirable assortment or a very good one, we seldom get anything for our labour. We sent to Cape Town for the brethern to send us seed, but I suppose they have forgotten about it, for that was a year ago. There is always a good market for vegetables, especially peas, cauliflower, radishes and beets. The Ethiopian movement (perhaps --- State Historical and N H Society, Denver, Coto TRONIZ COLORA ADVERTISE IN Jungles orence Mable Branch Former- Interesting Letter Telling g Happenings. you have heard of Bishop Turner's movement) is causing a great stir in South Africa and steps are being taken by the white Missionary Societies with the Government, to prohibit Negro Missionaries from entering that part of Africa. Even up in this part the whites are talking about the Ethiopian movement and its suppression, for every Negro missionary especially those from America, are looked upon as belonging to this movement, and native boys used as spies are always being sent here, to find out something, but as we did not come here to bring in insurrections, they have never been able to tell anything, only about the Bible, yet the watching continues. We have been having great difficulty in receiving our mail lately; there is a game Reserve between us and our nearest port, about fifty miles distance to the south of us, and all provisions, mail and freight is landed at this point and sent overland by native carriers, who are compelled to pass through the resreve and the lions have killed many of the carriers, women and children. They even become so bold as to enter the Port town before dark and carry off people. There has been such a scare that it has been impossible to get carriers to go after necessary things hence a raise in the market prices. The Europeans have succeeded in driving the lions back into the woods and one or two have been killed, but a wholesale slaughter of the animals cannot take place until permission is received from the proper authorities in London. Now the native carriers are allowed to carry guns to protect themselves. We are all very well at the present time, but have been having some fever. I see through the local papers that the dread "Sleeping Disease" is slowly but surely making its way toward us, and has almost reached the Northern boundary of this Protectorate. The tsetse fly, which causes this disease has already appeared in many districts near us, so I suppose it is only a question of time, until it reaches this district. No cure has been found for this disease, although the German Government is spending large sums of money DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, AUGUST 18, 1906. trying to find a remedy, as many thousands are dying in their territory. All the family send kindest regards to you and wife, and hope you are both enjoying good health. Many, many thanks for the papers, we enjoy them, and always look forward, with pleasure to their arrival. Pray for us and the work here. Very sincerly yours, Florence M. Branch. HORRIBLE TORTURE. Fort Worth, Texas. The treatment that Santa Anna, the Mexican General, gave the Americans during the early days of Texas, THE NEW YORK TIMES MISS FLORENCE MABLE BRANCH. was horrifying, but this falls into insignificance when one reads the following: Monk Gibson, charged with having murdered the Conditt family and who is in jail here, was tortured, stripped and bound to the floor; the lash fell across his back until the flesh was cut and he fainted, but he remained stealfast in his last statement. He was allowed to recover and was fed well. Again he was "examined." Men wearing large Texas spurs jumped upon his prostrate body. He screamed in pain and begged for mercy. He said he had told all he knew. He prayed aloud in his cell, asking God to assist the officers in their search for the guilty persons, in order that he might be cleared. The authorities did not believe his story. He was tortured again. This time a noose was prepared and he was strung up until his eyes bulged from the sockets so horribly that even the hardened officers of Texas justice turned away. The boy's tongue protruded from his swollen lips and he lost consciousness and when he ```markdown ``` recovered still steadfast, he lay near death for weeks. Gov. Lanham then ordered Texas Rangers, under Captain McDonald, to save the boy from further torture. Officers and guards had started with the boy accross the country to escape lynching and the boy escaped. He was retaken by a squad of rangers and Captain McDonald reached the conclusion that the boy was innocent. The rangers were chased by a mob, but they managed to land their prisoner in jail, where he was strung up by the thumbs. At night his agonizing screams drove his mother, who was taken to the same jail violently insane. Monk Gibson was indicted on the charge of murder, and his trial was transferred to San Antonio. The jury could not agree, and Gibson is still in jail, and still says he does not know who were the murderers of the Conditt family. His neck was saved by the fact that the bloody imprint of a hand on a board of the Conditt farmhouse did not correspond to the imprint of his hand. Felix Powell has been arrested and now in jail awaiting trial—Ex. LYNCHER CONVICTED. Salisbury, N. C., August 10. What is said to be the first instance of the conviction of a lyncher in the history of the state was furnished here to-night when Geo. Hall, a white ex-convict of Montgomery county, North Carolina, who was one of the party that Monday night lynched three Negroes in jail here for the murder of the Lylerly family, was found guilty of conspiracy in connection with that crime and was sentenced to 15 years at hard labor in the penitentiary, the maximum sentence provided by law. Hall's trial ended this evening at 7 o'clock. The jury was out but 35 minutes. Hall's counsel has appealed on [the ground that Gov. Glenn was in Atlantic City when the special term at which Hall was to be tried was ordered, and that, being out of the state's bounds, he has no jurisdiction. RICH COLORED GIRL Tulsa, I. T., Aug 1.—The boundary lines which separate the lands of the Creek, Cherokee and Osage Indians converge to a point to the north central part of the new state of Oklahoma. A few miles south of this point, in the Creek Nation, lives a little Negro girl named Isabella Lewis the daughter of a Negro who was formerly a Creek slave. This little girl owns 80 acres of land, part of her allotment, in the new "Glenn Pool" oil district which is giving her an income such as only millionaires can have. There are three oil wells on her land, each of which is producing 1,000 barrels of oil per day, and each of which is capable of having its daily capacity doubled. It is the announced intention of the company that has leased her land to put down seven more wells. If they each produce as much as those already drilled, and there is no reason to doubt it, her royalty of one-eighth of the entire amount produced at 52 cents per barrel the present market price of oil, will give her a daily income of $650, or an annual income of $237,000. At 5 per cent, that amount would be the interest on a capital of nearly $5,000,000. Under the laws which Isabella Lewis has granted to the operators who have leased her land and which was approved by the Secretary of the Interior, the oil which is her daily share is turned into the pipe line of the Standard Oil company and the money it represents is at once placed to her credit. Josephine Morrison, another little Negro girl 12 years of age, the daughter of a Creek freeman, has an allotment of 16 acres in the oil producing districts surrounded on all sides by flowing wells. The Morrison girl has her tract leased on a royalty of one-eighth of all oil produced. The lessees of this tract intend to drill at least 20 wells as fast as the oil can be taken care of by the Standard Oil people. The father of the Morrison, as well as the father of the Lewis girl, has been appointed guardian of his daughter. Their guardianship, however, is only nominal, for the reason that every act of the guardian must be approved by Secretary Hitchcook. This scrutiny of accounts, particularly in the NO. 47. expenditures of money, by the United States Secretary of the Interior cannot help but result in making both the Morrison and Lewis girl very wealthy when they arrive at legal age. RACE NEWS Gathered from Vartous Sources. Fredrick Smith, one of a jury of 24, who once tried former President Jeff. Davis, of the Confederate States, for treason, died a few days ago in Richmond, Va., aged 90 years. On that jury were 13 colored men and 11 whites. A sheriff in the South has cowed another mob that clamored for the life of a Negro criminal. The sheriff simply threatened to shoot and the hydra-headed had an attack of cold feet. There is nothing as cowardly as a mob—except some sheriffs. Rev. John Francis Lee, pastor of the Metropolitan African Methodist Episcopal Zion church, of Norfolk, Va., is attracting much attention in the South as a poet, many believing that he is the coming Negro poet of America, taking up the minstrel harp dropped by the late Paul Laurence Dunbar. Leavenworth, Kans., Aug. 14. It was stated at Fort Leavenworth to-day that plans are being perfected to have all colored troops in the United States army stationed at one post because of race feeling that exists at many points where both white and colored soldiers are stationed. It is said that a Southern post probably will be selected for the colored troops. Chicago, Aug. 13.—Sergt. Logan, colored, of the Ninth cavalry, made the best individual score in the four days' rifle competition of the Northern division of the regular army which ended at Fort Sheridan to day, his record being 779 out of a possible 1,000 points. Logan's nearest competitor was Lieut. Guthrie, who had a score of 767. "A white woman," says the Advocate of Portland, "was reported to have been choked and roughly handled in the suburbs of Portland a few days ago, and she supposed her assailant was a Negro, but if it really had been a Negro there would not have been any supposition about it, but since this occurrence it has been reported that several women have been followed and annoyed in different parts of the city by white hobos. Now as they seem to be the only gentlemen proven to be doing that kind of business, let us suppose that her assailant was a white man." L. M. ROGER. I. N. Rogers & Son.

When Hogarth was almost at the height of his fame he painted an interior which was somewhat severely criticised by a friend. The artist acknowledged the business of the criticism, and when his frank friend had left the studio he took a sharp knife, deliberately cut the canvas in two, and then threw the pieces into the coal sertile. There they were found the 'following day by one of the maids, who took the pieces home. How to Best Acquire a Language The best way to study a language and to learn its grammar is to begin with sentences, not with single words. The unit of speech is the sentence, and we cannot fix an exact meaning to a word until we see it in a sentence * * When once a sufficient number of sentences has been "assimilated," it will be easy to analyze them into their component parts, and to show the relations that these bear to me another.

The autumn season is coming more and more to be recognized as a most suitable time for housepainting. There is no trust deep in the wood to make trouble for even the best job of painting, and the general seasoning of the summer has put the wood into good condition in every way. The weather, moreover, is more likely to be settled for the necessary length of time to allow all the coats to thoroughly dry, a very important precaution. An old and successful painter said to the writer the other day: "House owners would get more for their money if they would allow their painters to take more time, especially between coats. Instead of allowing barely time for the surface to get dry enough not to be tauty, several days (weeks would not be too much) should be allowed so that the coat might set through and through. It is inconvenient, of course, but, if one would suffer this slight inconvenience, it would add two or three years to the life of the paint." All this is assuming, of course, that the paint used is the very best to be had. The purport of linenseed oil unmixed with any cheaper of the cheap mixtures, often known as "White Lead," and oil which has been distilled with fish oil, benzine, corn oil or other of the adulterants known to the trade are used, all the precautions of the skilled painter are useless to prevent the cracking and peeling which makes houses unsightly in a year or so and, therefore, make painting bills too frequent and costly. House owner should have his painter bring the ingredients to the premises separately, white lead of some well known reliable brand and linenseed oil of equal quality and mix the paint just before applying it. Painting need not be expensive and unsatisfactory if the old painter's suggestions are followed. CIVILIZATION'S FRIEND. The Iron Horse Spreads Knowledge and Progress. We have yet two decades to wait before we can celebrate the centennial anniversary of the birth of the railroad, says "The World's Progress," in FourTrack News for July. It is a wonderful record, that eighty years of rapid transit development. It has revolutionized the world commercially, socially and intellectually. The Atlantic and the Pacific have become near neighbors; the inaccessible and therefore valueless plains of the West have been penetrated and brought into touch with the markets of the world: New York and Chicago, that in the pioneer days were weeks away from one another, are now but eighteen hours apart. The railroad has entered Jerusalem; it has pierced darkest Africa; it is crossing the sands of Sahara; it scales the side of Vesuvius; it bridges the most forbidding chasms and tunnels through mountains and under rivers. The whistle of the locomotive is the voice of progress! The rails over which it runs are steel bands that bind nations into a great commercial brotherhood. The rapid development of the world along every desirable line since the locomotive became a factor in human affairs, is all the argument necessary to prove the railroad the greatest of all civilizing influences. A comparison of the past eighty years with the thousands of centuries preceding furnishes an eloquent proof of the far-reaching, uplifting, industrial, ethical and educational value of the railroad. First Sight of Pike's Peak. Writing from Goodnight, Texas, to the Colorado Springs Gazette, Donald Hewitt says: Pike first saw the "grand peak" or "great snow mountain," as he invariably calls it, at 2 o'clock on the afternoon of November 15, 1806. He was then marching along the Arkansas river a half dozen miles or less below the point at which the Purgatory or Las Animas river flows into the Arkansas. This is not far from the center of Bent county, Colorado. It is exactly eighty miles in an air line from Pueblo and 120 miles from the peak. A study of Pike's journal with a good map at hand will determine the position at that time with considerable accuracy. The stages of his journey on the days preceding November 15th can be easily followed. The "two dry creeks, and very high points of rocks" passed early in the morning of the 15th are to be found on the map. Nor is there the slightest doubt that "the fork discovered before evening on the south side bearing S. 20 degrees W, is the Purgatory or Las Animas river. So far as I know no one has yet attempted to locate the hill to which Pike refers when he says: "When our small party arrived on the hill, they with one accord gave three cheers to the Mexican mountains." Here is a problem to be worked out by some good citizen of Las Animas. Dled for His Horse. An accident showing such devotion of a man for a dumb animal that he was willing to give his life to save it, happened at Hartford. Connecticut when Frank Daly, aged twenty-eight, was drowned in the Park river in rescuing his horse, Chief, which, attached to a heavy road wagon, had toppled over an embankment. The horse backed over an embankment and with the wagon sank to the bottom of the river, which is deep at this point. Daly sprang in with a knife and stuck to his task at the bottom of the muddy water, trying to cut the harness. Man and beast were rising to the surface when the man was struck in the head by the plunging horse's hoofs, and he sank. Weather's somethin' mighty strange! Always wishin' it would change; Wishin' 'twould get warm an' then, Wishin' 'twould get cool again. "Here!" cried young Kallow; "can't you touch up my mustache a little" "I'll be glad to, sir," replied the barber. "When do you expect to get it?" Glasgow Electric Lines. Glasgow municipal electric railway accounts submitted recently show the gross revenue for the years was $44, 123,420, the profits for the year being $232,090, after $123,000 had been car- ried to the common good fund.

Capt. Elysays: "I contracted kidney trouble during the Civil War, and the occasional attacks finally developed into a chronic case. At one time I had to use a crutch and cane to get about. My back was lame and weak, and besides the aching, there was a distressing retention of the kidney secretions. I was in a bad way when I began using Doan's Kidney Pills in 1901, but the remedy cured me, and I have been well ever since." Sold by all dealers. 50 cents a box. Foster-Milburn Co., Buffalo, N. Y.

"That was tit for tat with a vengeance," said Walter Christie, the automobilist, apropos of a quarrel between two French chaufeurs. "It reminds me of a grocer I used to know in Paint Rock. This grocer went over to the jeweler's one day to get a new crystal put on his watch. The latter as he fitted and cleaned the crystal suddenly flushed. He bit his lip and frowned. His hand trembled so that he could hardly go on with his task. Finally, handing the watch to the grocer, the jeweler said in a restrained voice: 'Beg pardon, but didn't I just see you put a couple of rings and a scarpin in your pocket?' "Sure you did," said the grocer, boldly. 'When you come to my place aren't you always putting things in your mouth?' Chamois Skin of Commerce. Chamois Skin of Commerce. Charles C. Druedling, of Philadelphia, has written an article for the American Journal of Pharmacy on the subject of chamois skins. What is known in the market as chamois skins, he says, is really an oil-tanned sheep or lamb skin lining. The supply of skins from the chamois animal is very limited—enough could not be obtained in a year to supply the United States for more than a single day. He made special inquiry on a recent visit to Switzerland about the annual crop of the chamois skin and ascertained that from 5,000 to 6,000 skins would be a fair average yearly crop. This skin is heavier than the skin of the sheep or lamb, also much coarser. For strength and durability the chamois skin is preferable, but for ordinary use and appearance the oil-tanned sheep skin lining would, in most instances, be preferred. AN OLD TIMER. Has Had Experiences. A woman who has used Postum Food Coffee since it came upon the market 8 years ago knows from experience the necessity of using Postum in place of coffee if one values health and a steady brain. She says: "At the time Postum was first put on the market I was suffering from nervous dyspepsia and my physician had repeatedly told me not to use tea or coffee. Finally I decided to take his advice and try Postum, and got a sample and had it carefully prepared, finding it delicious to the taste. So I continued its use and very soon its beneficial effects convinced me of its value, for I got well of my nervousness and dyspepsia. "My husband had been drinking coffee all his life until it had affected his nerves terribly. I persuaded him to shift to Postum and it was easy to get him to make the change for the Postum is delicious. It certainly worked wonders for him. "We soon learned that Postum does not exhilarate or depress and does not stimulate, but steadily and honestly strengthens the nerves and the stomach. To make a long story short our entire family have now used Postum for eight years with completely satisfying results, as shown in our fine condition of health and we have noticed a rather unexpected improvement in brain and nerve power." Name given by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich. Increased brain and nerve power always follow the use of Postum in place of coffee, sometimes in a very marked manner.

The COLORADO STATESMAN has, up to the present, refused to say anything about the franchise trial now pending in the courts and being tried in the daily press of Denver. In the first place we were not certain as to the facts in the case but now the trial has progressed sufficiently far to bring to light that there was not the big steal and gigantic frauds as charged by the "yellow" journals and that the irregularities are not of a nature to change the effects of the election. We are against it. The public now has bonified evidence of game being played by certain papers and the voters are now in a position to sit down hard on the cranks who are attempting to throw political dust in decent people's eyes. It is a kick and slap at the Republican party because they received a majority of votes in the last election. Now it is up to the Republicans to hand the "yellows" the biggest kind of mit in return by voting them out of their boots. It is a curse to Denver to have the public in suspense these many months and the outside newspapers showing up how wicked Denver is, when it is all a lie. These would-be reformers ought to be tagged and drummed out of town. They have destroyed confidence in their own as well as public sincerity and ought to be made suffer for it. The Republican vote ought to show their disapproval of these hot house reformers by turning their pictures to the wall and wining the county and state election this fall with hands down. The "yellows" have dug their own political grave and ought to be buried in it never to rise again. Denver ought to be redeemed from these calamity howlers and put solidly in the Republican column never to get out of line again. The "yellows" overstepped themselves and were beaten at their own game. VERILY THE SUN DO MOVE. If Uncle John Jasper was still alive we would gladly echo his refrain around the grand old earth for something like the above statement has happened right here in camp. Read this clipping and then stop and wonder if Rev. John Jasper was not about right: Philadelphia, July 13.—The colored ministers of this city are making a great effort to improve their educational conditions. With that object in view a number of them applied yesterday to the committee on special schools of the board of education to grant them the use of the public school at Seventeenth and Pine streets or Twentieth and Lombard school during the remainder or the summer to establish a night school for the Negro preachers. The movement of the sun is as nothing compared to this acknowledgement and desire on the part of these preachers. For a long time Negro preachers regarded it as be- low their dignity to go to school and even looked down with disdain upon a young Theologue who was impudent and sacriligious enough to "butt into" a college. We have even heard them warn their parishmers not to attend certain churches, where educated ministers presented the gospel and have seen these ignorant preachers combine and plot against the educated ministers in conferences, associations and church conventions. Now at least this class of uneducated preachers are finding that it does not pay to fight intelligence and are willing to acknowledge it and ask that the school house be opened to them. By all means, let the school houses that stand vacant during the summer vacations be opened to these men. The schools would be serving a noble end. Let Bible institutions, chatanquas, summer assemblies and all other avenues of learning be open to them. But the greatest wonder is, that this class of men have discovered their unpreparedness and are frank and open enough to confess it and then seek for light. We know the time when it would have been regarded as "unpardonable insult" to tell these J. L. P. (Jack Leg Preachers) that they were uneducated and to advise then to go to school would have been a "henious crime." THE URGENT NEED OF CON SERVATIVE CANDIDATES. Will the Republicans of this state and city and county of Denver put up a ticket at the coming election that will interest the voters of the party or the will of the politicians? We ask this question candidly because it is the query of a number of Republicans greater than the majority by which the ticket can be elected. This element of Republican voters is not hard to please, but it must be admitted that there is a positive conviction existing among them to the effect that the party does not give their interest much consideration in the make-up of the tickets which they are expected to help to elect. We are speaking particularly of the character and personal principles of the candidates to be placed upon the tickets and their sense of respect for the colored vote. If there ever was a time when the Republican party of this city and state needed men of broad principles and fair minds for candidates, that time is now. It is sheerest folly to claim or contend that the colored contingent of the Republican party in this city or state is always rewarded fairly for its share in the victories that its services help to win. Too often men are placed on the ticket who do not honestly respect the elements upon whom they must depend for election, then after election they resort to subterfuge and deception to avoid the promises they made during the campaign. They determinedly deny colored voters the places in their offices which these voters expect, are entitled to and have fairly and honestly won. Such men are not good Repubileans and ought not to be made candidates for office. Colored voters ask no more than other elements of the party demand, and usually do not seek as much—certainly never more than they deserve. Is it wise to either deceive, deny or dispoint them? The importance of Republican election this fall is great. Good broad-minded men making up a ticket of representative worth and personal integrity will invite the confidence and suffrage and strength of the Negro. Any other kind of a ticket will be in jeopardy from the moment of its nomination to the day of election. We speak plainly, first for the good of the party, and second in the interest of the colored voter. It is true that the colored vote will be cast generally for the Republi can ticket, but the size of that vote is greatly influenced by the circumstance to which we refer. The number of colored men and women who refuse to vote at all, for the reason herein given, is surprising ingly large. The constant efforts and persuasions of the Colorado Statesman and the party workers influenced by the paper is to interest our constituents to give a solid vote at each election. These people know that the Republican party in other states and cities where a similar vote is obtained has granted colored voters far more liberal rewards. The proved traditions and high principles which made the party victorious at other times, and the solid vote and united strength given the party last spring when the vote was so close should not be disregarded now. Let the ticket be made up of whole-hearted Republicans and men whose personal integrity will be a guaranty of fair treatment to all alike. Such a ticket is sure of election and the county and state wil see in positions of trust those from whom the party and people will expect great good. CANON CITY NOTES. Joseph D. D. Rivers of Denver was in the city Saturday on business. Mrs. D. L. Bruton and son Norman, who have been in Missouri the past month, returned home Sunday afternoon.

In passsing sentence upon a Negro who had killed another of his race at Kansas City, Judge Wofford said: "Well you're guilty of murder, alright, but, you're a poor, ignorant black man, and I don't want to hang you. You have no friends. You have no one to plead that you were insane when you killed this man. If I sentence you to hang, you will hang, just as sure as there's a God in heaven. There will not be a whole lot of women circulating petitions to save your neck. There will not be a lot of fool men writing letters to the governor to save you. No one will send you flowers. You'll just be forgotten until the day set for your hanging, and then they'll hang you. I'll sentence you to thirty years in the penitentiary. Mayor Story, of Atlantic City, was condemning those Menhaden fishermen who dredge the Atlantic at points illegally near the shore for fish that is only used for fertilizer. At the same time the Mayor pointed out the difficulty of catching and punishing these fishermen. He said: "On account of the sinful waste of good fish that they cause, we would be only too glad to prosecute these men, but the means to detect and identify them are not often at hand. We have the will but not the power to punish. We are like the trumpeter in an Atlantic City band. "This man, a native of Germany, was practicing one night a trumpet obligato, but he did not play anything like loud enough. "Louder, louder,' said the leader. "And the trumpeter redoubled his efforts. "And he put on still more steam. "Louder, louder, louder!" "The trumpeter banged down his trumpet and glared at the leader with eyes that started from their sockets. "It's all ferry well, he sputtered, 'to say "louder, louder," but vare iss de vind?'

Des Moines, Ia.—The executive council, which filed its report the other day, has increased the assessment of railroad property in Iowa $4,099,586, making the total taxable value for 1906 $62,289,775, as compared with $58,190,189 in 1905 and $47,071,258 in 1901, the last year of the administration of Gov. Shaw. During the administration of Gov. Cummins the executive council has found the railroads of Iowa to have increased in actual value $60,864,068. The increase in taxable value by the sum of $4,099,586 means an increased annual tax payment of $143,485. Most of the increase falls on the big trunk lines which reported enormous growth in gross and net earnings for 1905 as compared with 1904. The chief increase in the taxable value assessment falls on the Burlington and Northwestern and Milwaukee, whose assessment is about $1,000,000 per road greater. Other roads' assessments are increased from $100,000 to $500,000. The increases are based on increased assessment per mile, mileage this year being the same as last. The Minneapolis & St. Louis assessment was decreased about $99,832, but this was the only decrease of importance. The interurban lines were assessed $38,536 higher than last year, making their total taxable value $457,299. HORSE IS AN OLD HAND. Stole a Watch, Chain, and Medal, but Restitution Was Forced. Hamilton, Ont.—The following is Gospel truth. Three fellows were walking down Jackson street the other day when a horse, which was standing at the sidewalk, did a most curious thing. When the three were opposite, the beast leaned over and snatched a watch chain out of the near man's pocket and apparently ate it. They made a spring for the horse's bit and managed after a struggle to regain the treasure. The chain was in three pieces, but the brute was soon made to give these up. It was then discovered that a medal, which had been attached to the chain, was missing. After a little more resistance they succeeded in extracting the battered medal. The horse was genuinely amused, or seemed to be, throughout this extraordinary game. The watch was quite useless and the young men fear the animal must be an "old hand." LIQUID AIR FOR HIGHBALLS. London Firm Announces Method Cheap Manufacture. London. It is announced that a process has been discovered for manufacturing liquid air at a price that will enable it to be commonly used to cool beverages, which will thereby not be diluted as they are by the use of ice. Air thus liquefied can be sold for $1.25 a gallon. If kept in vacuum containers it will not evaporate in 17 days. A few drops only are necessary to refrigerate a highball. The drops take a pearl shape and dance like animated diamonds. A white mist rises from the glass. Little lumps of white ice form and melt. In two minutes the drink is ready and deliciously cold. Impatient drinkers would better adhere to ice as, if they should drink before the liquid air evaporates the result would be pathetic for the drinker, though humorous for the lookers on. Owners of the process recommend air thus liquefied as a power for automobiles and for blasting. It exerts as is expands a pressure of 15,000 pounds to a square inch. SAYS CHARLIE ROSS LIVES. Galveston Police Know a Man Who Knows All About It. Galveston, Tex.—The police department here has located a man believed to be Joseph L. Douglas, one of the abductors of Charlie Ross in July, 1874. This man has been a resident of this city for many years. He is known as Joseph Likens, but he admits that it is not his real name. It has never been proven that Douglas was dead, although it was claimed he was wounded at the time his comrade in the abduction, William Mosher, was killed while robbing a house in Brooklyn. Likens has said that he could tell something about Charlie Ross in ten words, but he fears to do so. He says that Ross is still living. Likens made his appearance here about the time a young man named Vonhodge claimed to be the long lost boy. The police are confident that he was associated in the Ross kidnapping and they believe he will some day confess. It is known that, he was in Philadelphia about the time of the abduction.

Ulysis Hayden Is Cowardly Shot Down--Murdered in Cold Blood by Wm. H. Adams. Ulysses G. Hayden, one of the best known and best thought of young men in Denver, was shot down in cold blood Thursday night by William H. Adams, an employee of the University Club. Adams was in company with Miss Cora Clark, well known in the city. She is a daughter of Edward Clark, a pioneer of Denver. Mr. Hayden was born in Ozark, Mo. He came to Denver nearly eleven years ago and has been employed in different capacities, lately as private car porter by the D. & R. G. Railway. It is believed that the principal cause of the bloody deed was prompted by jealousy. Hayden was at one time a suitor for the hand of Miss Clark, but for some cause unknown to us their relations were severed, and she has been keeping company with Adams. Mr. Hayden is survived by a mother, who resides in Ozark, Mo., two sisters of this city, Mrs. Clara Herndon and Mrs. Julia Eubanks; a niece, Mrs. S. H. Hobson; Edward Hayden, a brother of Alamosa, Colo.; Albert Hayden, a brother of Stillwater, Okla.; Allen Hayden, a brother of Springfield, Mo. Mr. Hayden was a Christian gentleman, being a member of Shorter's A. M. E. church. He was a member of Rocky Mountain Lodge No. 2320 and Denver Patriarchs No. 67, G. U. of O. F. The body will be buried at Ozark, Mo. Mr. Hayden, by his manly bearing and industrious habits, had endeared himself to a large circle of friends, who mourn his untimely death. Ernest Shafer --- Exalted Ruler of Elks is Killed in Cold Blood by Chas. Carpenter, a white Man. The killing of Ernest L. Shafer, at Twenty-first and California streets, at 2 o'clock last Saturday morning, by Charles Carpenter, has been the gossip of the week on account of the mystery which shadows the case. Shafer, who worked for Henry Pinn, at 1821 Arapahoe street, went to his home, 2055 California street, shortly before 2 o'clock and stated to his wife that he wanted his revolver, as two burglars were trying to get into a house near by and he wanted to hold them until the police arrived. He took the weapon and went out. Across the street on the corner Carpenter and Weaver were standing talking. Carpenter admitted after he was arrested that he had shot Shafer three times, but states that Shafer attempted to draw a revolver. At the inquest Monday morning Policeman Shelton testified that when he searched the dead man he did not find any weapon. The verdict of the coroner's jury exonerates Carpenter, but he has since been indicted charged with murder. It is the general opinion of all that the real cause leading to Shafer's death has not been revealed. The deceased was the Exalted Ruler of Rice Lodge No. 39, I. B. P. O. E. of W., under whose auspices the funeral services were held Tuesday afternoon from Zion Baptist church, conducted by Rev. J. E. Ford. The remains lay in a beautiful purple couch casket and were in charge of Undertaker Q. J. Gilmore, who is due no little amount of credit for the exact manner in which everything was carried out. No better service could have been rendered by anyone. Headed by the First Regiment band, C. N. G., the Elks marched from their hall, Seventeenth and Curtis streets, to the residence of deceased and escorted the body to the church, which was filled with sympathizing friends. The floral offerings were many and was a token of the high esteem in which deceased was held. After the services the procession, which was one of the largest ever held in Denver, marched down Arapahoe to Eighteenth street, from whence to Broadway and Colfax, and boarded cars for Fairmont cemetery, where they paid the last sash rites to their deceased brother. Deceased was 28 years old and had been a resident of Denver for many years. He was a quiet and mannerly young man and was well liked by all who knew him. Besides a wife, he leaves a mother, two brothers and a sister to mourn his sad and untimely demise. The bereaved ones have the sympathy of all. The Elks have been complimented from all sides for their loyalty shown to their brother in their turn-out of magnificent splendor, not for the great showing they made, but for their brotherly love. At their meeting Wednesday night Esteemed Leading Knight George W. Kimes was elected Exalted Ruler to fill the unexpired term of the deceased leader, while Jas. H. Kelly was elected to the office of Estemed Leading Knight. All lovers of the race and of justice should congratulate this great order for the efforts they are exerting to have the slayer of their brother punished. They are sparing neither time nor money to fathom the case and it is the hope of all that they will succeed. We are indeed proud to note that the members of the Elk fraternity are intelligent young men who know no compromise and have no limit to their funds in fighting the case to a finish.

Saturday Keeping Youthful. Germa in Dust. Friend of Whistler Denies Great Artist Was Conceited. "At Pont-Aven, in Brittany," said a New York painter, "I met Mortimer Menpes, who is chiefly famous for his friendship with Whistler. "The hotel at Pont-Aven is a museum of superbly carved antique Breton chests, armoires, and closet beds, and a gallery of superb paintings that were presented to the proprietress by Alexander Harrison, Penfold, Pauline Palmer, and other noted artists. "In the salon of the hotel, I heard Menpes talk one day of Whistler. "Whistler," Menpes said, "was not a conceived man. He was a joker. As jokes, not as serious speeches, most of his remarks were to be taken. "Thus a lady said one day to Whistler: "Do you think, Mr. Whistler, that genius is hereditary?" "I can't tell you, madam,' Whistler replied. 'Heaven has granted me no offspring.'" WANTS THE CORRECT PHRASING Man Is Puzzled Over the Right Way to Ask for Liver. "I wish," said the chronic faultfinder, "that butchers would hit upon some uniform rule for writing out their notices of calf's liver. The present diversity of styles is embarrassing, and apparently convicts a fellow of grammatical error every time he buys a pound of liver. Some shops say they have 'calf's liver' for sale, others make a specialty of 'calves' liver,' while still others with a finer regard for singular and plural numbers call attention to their excellent 'calves' livers.' One butcher in Columbus avenue goes so far as to advertise 'calf's livers,' but unless that sign is misleading the animals he handles must be freaks, therefore they need not be considered. What I want to know is, What is the grammatical rule in regard to this table delicacy? If I want more liver than one calf can supply should I pluralize both terms and ask for 'calves' livers'?"—New York Globe. Ideals of Family Life. Dr. Alcott opposed the keeping of a servant because, as he said, a servant destroys the domesticity of family life. Dr. Alcott further told the young wife that she must "prepare" appetizing dishes for her husband; must see that his house was kept neat and clean; that the children were properly and nicely dressed, and that the wife and children should all be ready in the parlor to welcome with smiling faces the man of the house when he came home in the afternoon. Emerson said that Dr. Alcott was the greatest intellect since Plato. Emerson gave Dr. Alcott a letter to Carlyle, and wives of the present day will probably applaud Thomas to the skies for saying to Jane: "Never let that old cabbage in here again." Wore Out His Finger. There is a brakeman on the Colorado Midland railroad who years ago lost his index finger on his right hand. One day recently a lady passenger who had been much interested in the wonderful works of nature the brakeman had pointed out to her along the road, noticed the stub finger. When the conductor came through the car she said to him: "Excuse me, sir, but can you tell me how the brakeman lost his forefinger? He seems to be such an accommodating fellow." "Yes, mum; that's just it. He is s accommodating that he wore that finger off pointing out the scenery along the line," said the conductor.—Denver News. Protection from Bee S A beekeeper in New Hampshire was showing a city man his apiary. The hives were arranged in line on the side of a mountain, and the air was sweet with the smell of clover, pine trees, carnations. A bee lit on the keeper's hand angrily, and the man held his breath. "Bees can't sting you, if you hold your breath," he said afterward. "To hold the breath closes the pores of the skin, or something like that. At any rate, if a bee goes for you, hold your breath, and I'll guarantee you won't be stung, although the bee jab its sting at you till the thing breaks." To Make an Eggnog.

If you want a change from day to day substitute for the whisky some good port, sherry, tokay, or any first class wine. —Tip, in the New York Press.

ARCHBISHOP FOR CHAPLAIN Grand Army Has grown During the Past Year Despite the Inroads of Death—Mrs. Sparkling of Missouri President of Woman's Relief Corps. Minneapolis, Minn.—Commander-in-Chief—R. B. Brown, Zanesville, Ohio. Senior Vice Commander—William H. Armstrong, Indianapolis. Junior Vice Commander—E. E. Fenton, Detroit. Chaplain-in-Chief—Archbishop John Ireland, St. Paul. Surgeon General—W. H. Johnson, Lincoln, Nebraska. These officers were elected Thursday at the annual meeting of the Grand Army of the Republic. All the other officers are staff appointments and will be announced later by the commander-in-chief. The strongest opponents of Mr. Brown for the honor of being commander-in-chief were C. G. Burton, Missouri, and Capt. P. H. Coney of Kansas. Both withdrew when it was seen that the election of Mr. Brown was a certainty. Several candidates were nominated for senior and junior vice commanders, but later all withdrew in favor of Armstrong and Fenton, and both were chosen unanimously. Archbishop Ireland had no rivals for the position of chaplain-in-chief. In his annual report Commander Tanner said that notwithstanding the fearful inroads of death upon the comrades of the Grand Army of the Republic, Mr. Tanner declared the organization to-day is 3,500 stronger than at the encampment at Denver last year. He said the G. A. R. has attained a position of influence "which has been beneficial not only to our own comrades, but to the nation which we served in its hour of peril." The commander-in-chief bitterly arraigned those who, posing as the "most eminent men of the nation," had proven false to their trust in various ways, but declared that among all such the name of no Civil War veteran could be found. He suggested that a committee be appointed to consider carefully the relations to be sustained in the future between the Grand Army of the Republic and the Woman's Relief Corps, Ladies of the Grand Army, Daughters of Veterans, Sons of Veterans and other patriotic organizations. All of these societies had done great good and given substantial help to those of the order in need. He urged that it was best for them to consolidate. The heat, which has caused so much suffering, continues. It is estimated by the police that the prostrations during the parade numbered over 100. The great majority of these were women who became exhausted by standing in the street waiting for the parade to pass The Union Veterans' Union has unanimously re-elected Richard L Gorman commander-in-chief. Maj. Gen. George Wentworth of Haverhill, Massachusetts, was named as first deputy commander-in-chief, and Gen. H. H. Carr, Wichita, Kansas, second deputy commander-in-chief. Mrs. Carrie Sparkling of St. Louis was to-night elected national president of the Women's Relief Corps. Her principal rival was Miss Kate Jones of New York. Mrs. Sparkling was previously held a number of high offices in the organization. DEMOCRATIC SPLIT. Second Democratic Organization Formed in Denver. Denver.—The following is, in part, the address to the Democrats of Colorado which was adopted Wednesday night by Democrats of Denver in mass meeting assembled at the Woman's club. It was prepared by a committee of which Senator T. M. Patterson was chairman: To the Democrats of Colorado; On the 18th day of July more than 100 Democrats of Denver met at the Albany hotel and unanimously adopted the following resolutions; "Resolved, that there is no Democratic city and county central committee in Denver; that the so-called Democratic central committee does not represent the Democrats of Denver, nor Democratic principles, and we repudiate that committee and declare it to be but the mouthpiece of William G. Evans and the Denver utility corporations he represents. "And we, therefore, recommend the creation of a Democratic city and county central committee, and that the organization be fully completed, to the end that the Democracy of Denver may be fittingly represented in the coming state Democratic convention, and nominate a full Democratic city and county ticket to be voted for at the fall election." In pursuance of the resolution the Democrats of Denver have organized a city and county central committee, also a Democratic executive committee. The executive committee consists of sixteen members—one from each ward of the city and county of Denver—and the central committee consists of one from each voting precinct of said city and county. Fully equipped with the proper committees, it is the purpose of Denver's Democracy, through them, to call and hold a city and county convention, for the nomination of a full delegation to the Democratic state convention, also senators and representatives, judges of the District court and other county and precinct officers. It will also take proper steps for representation in the congressional convention of the First district, and in such conventions as may be called to nominate float legislative candidates. It will, in addition, do each and every other thing necessary and proper to carry out the wishes of and to meet theresponsibilities devolving upon the Democrats of Denver. BOTH RENOMINATED AND ENDORSED FOR PRESIDENT. SPEAKER HIGHLY HONORED Would Not Refuse Presidential Nomination—But It Is Best Not to Cross a Stream Until You Come to It. Danville, Ill.—In the convention of the Eighteenth Illinois Congressional district which Thursday renominated Joseph G. Cannon for the eighteenth consecutive time, being the seventeenth nomination by acclamation, there was the greatest enthusiasm, especially over the prospective candidacy of Mr. Cannon for President. Mr. Cannon had not intended to launch a boom for President at this convention, but the pressure of his supporters was so great as to sweep away his wishes in the matter. Mr. Cannon's supporters in his own district will likely urge the state convention to make similar endorsement. There seems to be little doubt that this will be done. The convention's endorsement of Mr. Cannon for President was unanimous and a resolution to this effect was adopted amid the greatest enthusiasm. Mr. Cannon, after the passage of the resolution endorsing him for President, said: "The resolution which you have just adopted, coming as it does from those whom I have represented in the national House of Representatives for over thirty years, touches me profoundly. I would be less than human did I not appreciate your expression of compliment, when you mention my name with approval in connection with the highest office in the gift of the people. I would not exchange your confidence for the gratification for any ambition I might have. "It is proper for me to say,' however, that we are on the eve of a campaign for the election of a national House of Representatives, which may involve one-third of the personnel of the United States Senate, to say nothing of the campaign in the respective state." "As you are aware, the election will be held in November next. In politics as well as in other matters, it is best not to cross a stream until you come to it. The first stream to cross is in November next and it is necessary that we should be successful in crossing it before we attempt to get over the river in 1908. "It is too early to determine the personnel of the national ticket for the presidential election. So far as the Republican party is concerned, it will no doubt, in convention assembled, perform that duty wisely when the time comes, and whoever is chosen for leadership will surely receive the hearty support of those who believe in the policies of the Republican party, of which I am an humble member. These policies are vital for the best interests and welfare of all the people." "No man would refuse the nomination at the hands of a great party for the highest office in the Republic, but such a nomination is not to be had for the seeking." DEAF MUTE'S CONVENTION. Interesting, Though Silent, Gathering in Denver. Denver.—The second biennial convention of the Colorado Association of Deaf Mutes, which began Thursday in the Chamber of Commerce hall, was a wonderful demonstration of the progress made in sign language. The greatest novelty was five young women who recited without emitting a sound. Rythmic and graceful in motion, their rendition seemed to be as pleasing to those who could follow them as a vocal quintet to music lovers. The Colorado deaf mutes evidently have come up to Denver with the full intention of having as good a time as any noisy, aggregation that ever whooped its way down Sixteenth street. With the faculties of sight and touch they did all that others can accomplish. When their president, George W. Veditz, addressed them, although there was not a sound except the smack of his hands as he emphasized his points, all were attentive. Their earnest faces, nods of approval and rounds of applause were as emphatic and genuine as if they had been deafening. The officers of the association are: G. W. Veditz, Colorado Springs, president; H. M. Harbert, Colorado Springs, first vice president; Stephen McGinnity, Denver, second vice president; Max J. Kestner, Denver, secretary; Frank A. Lessley, Denver, treasurer; Edward P. McGow, Denver, Floyd O. Mount, Mrs. Kate O. Mount, Denver, trustees. Army of the Philippines. Denver to Colorado Springs and Pueblo.

CAMPIGLIA Colorado OPEN TILL 2 O'CLOCK A. M. BIG NEW SHOE BUILDING, It Is Dedicated by the W. L. Douglas Co. at Brockton. . The dedication a short time ago of the new administration and jobbing house building erected by the W. L. Douglas Shoe Co. as a part of its mam- moth manufacturing plant at Montello was marked by the thoroughness and attention to detail characteristic of the firm in all its undertakings. The dedicatory program included open house from 11 a. m. to 8 p. m, with concert by the Mace Gay orches- tra and the presence of a Boston caterer to.attend to the wishes of all. The building itself afforded a feast or the eye, especially the offices, which are marvels in many ways. Fifteen thousand invitations were sent out, including over 11,000 to the re- tail dealers in the United States who handle the W. L. Douglas Co. shoes, the others going to shoe manufactur. ers and all allied industries in Brock- ton and vicinity. Mr. Douglas will be glad to have anybody who is interest- ed call and inspect the new plant, and says “the latch string 1s always out.” All departments’ of the plant were open for inspection, the three factories as well as the new building, and vis- witors were received and escorted through the industrial maze by ex- Goy. Douglas, assisted by the heads of the varidus departments, Under the present system all shoes are manufactured to order, and cus- \tomers sometimes lose sales waiting for shoes to arrive. With the new Jobbing house they will be enabled to have their hurry orders shipped the same day they are received. The new building 1s 260 feet long and 60 feet wide and two stories in height. The jobbing department will vccupy the entire lower floor, while the offices will occupy the second floor. The jobbing department will carry a complete stock of men’s, boys’, youths’, misses’ and children’s shoes, slippers, rubbers and findings equal to any job- Ding house in the country. Buyers are especially invited to come here to trade, and every effort possible will be made to suit their convenience. There will be a finely appointed sample room on the second floor, with an office in which both telephone and telegraph will be installed, with operators, both Western Union and Postal Telegraph wires to be used. There will also be arrangements for the receipt and des- patch of mail. Preach from Automobiles. ‘A novel method of preaching the gospel was recently tried in France with striking success. Pastor Delat- tre from Roame (Reformed church), in company with Pastor Sainton, of the Baptist church, in Paris, visited with an automobile the departments of Loire, Rhone, Alier, Saone et Loire, ‘within a radius of about 90 miles. Pastor Delattre writes: “During near- ly two months, from our automobile, we have been able to preach the Scospel on market places, from fair to Wicin, distributing thousands of tracts and selling no less than 2,600 copies of the New Testament.” ‘The University of Notre Damo, tt [rears as poine ceatues that cant not be duplicated in any other school. it 1s one of the old, well-established colleges, with Settled traditions reaching back sixty-four years, with w distinguished staf of pro- fessor and excellent Ibrary and labora tory equlpiient Its discipline is of the Paternal kind—strong. without being op- pressive; and as it einbraces in its scope the grammar school, high school and col- lege work, its appeal is as broad as it Is potent.

Drawtna the Line. ‘We have followed the plow, wielded the hoe, served time on the public roads under an austere overseer, swept the backyard, worked the gar- den, churned the butter, washed the dishes, nursed the baby and performed other various and sundry disagreeable tasks in our times without a murmur, but when it comes to cleaning streets under three lady bosses—excuse us, please. Three women to boss you. Great Caesar's ghost! Just the thoughts of such a catastrophe is enough to give a man the “buck-ague.” g-Minden (La.) Signal. World's Cotton Consumption. ‘The consumption of cotton from 1893 to 1898 averaged only 9,000,000 pales annually in the whole world, but from 1898 to 1908 the average was 10,- 684,146 bales annually, and the aver- \age price was three cents per pound greater than for the previous period. If the consumption increases at the same ratio during the next five year period the average will be nearly 13,- 000,000 bales annually, and the prices will be much higher than in the pre- vious period. This indicates a pros- perous future for the cotton producer and manufacturer, as well as for the export trade.

CARNIVAL “OF BLOODSHED Revolutionists Fiercely Attack Troops and Police in Cities of Poland, Whole ot the Caucasus Under Mar. tial Law. St. Petersburg—Acting apparently with a definite plan and at a signal, the terrorists and revolutionists Wed nesday inaugurated a carnival of mur. erous attacks with bombs and re volvers on the police and troops in ve: ‘rious cities in Poland, echoes of which are heard from Samara, Uta, Yalta, ‘Klex, and even faraway Chita, where the acting chiet of police, Gorpin ‘chenko was slain almost on his own doorstep. The revolutionists’ campaign flamed out with especial virulence at War Saw, where over a score were slain in the streets and many more were wounded. Among the killed, according to the Jatest official advices, were two’ sen geants of police, eight patzolmen, three gendarmes, five soldiers, a He brew merchant and a woman. The re turns are not all in, Policemen and soldiers wero shot ‘down like rabbits in the streets. ‘Thelz assailants, who traveled in small bands, almost all escaped among the jterrorized but sympathetic poptilace, ‘The only considerable capture was band of ten men who had invaded a grogshop and killed a soldier. Thes¢ were taken by a passing patrol. Bombs were employed in an attack en the police station of the Volk pre cinct in Warsaw, where a sergeant ‘two patrolmen ‘and a soldier weré ‘wounded. Other Polish cities singled out by the terrorists were Lodz, where six sol diers, three patrolmen and the wife o! ‘a police captain were wounded by the ‘explosion of bombs in the police sta tion and two soldiers and two terror ists killed in the streets by a bomb; « bomb thrown in a police station kiliec the wife and child of a patrolman a‘ Viostvsk, where the chief of polics wa: slain, and Plock, where, at a given sig nal the policemen on all the posts were simultaneously attacked and several 0 them wounded.

Work of the International Typograph nal: Uintore Colorado Springs, Colo.—The agree mont with the American Newspaper Publishers’ Association was accepted by the L. T. U. convention Wednesday, assurances being given by Frederick Driscoll, labor commissioner for the publishers, that they would ratify it ‘next February. ‘The new agreement is but slightly different from the one which expires May 1, 1907, and insures the newspaper publishers against walkouts, strikes or voycotts, they agreeing to arbitrate all differences respecting wages, hours and conditions of labor. ‘A national board of arbitration 1s created, to consist of the three mem- bers of the union executive council and three of the stanaing committee of the Publishers’ association. By a unanimons vote the delegates to the Internationa! Typographical Un. ion convention adopted a resolution ex. pressing their full confidence in the officers and executive council, congrat. ulsting them upon “the wisdom and prudent foresight shown in the con- duct of the contest for an eight-hour day,” and especially indorsing the ac- tion of the levy of the ten per cent. as: sessment for the purpose of the strike fund, Hot Springs, Arkansas, gets the next I.

Althoagn a vote was not taken, the nominations were made, and there is no mistaking the sentiment of the delegates. ‘The only other eity in the race is Indianapolis, Indiana, Vicksburg having been with- drawn after the delegates attested their preference for the Arkansas re- sort. Boston, which gossip had said would bid for the prize, was not nomi- nated. St. Joseph, Missouri, made a bid for the convention of 1909, and Seattle, Washington, also wants this prize, holding forth, the Alaskan Exposition as an inducement why the delegates should meet in that city three years wence.

The lowest price was 66.62 cents an-ounce and DI- rector of the Mint Roberts announced that it was the only one that received fayorable consideration. The three other bids went up as high as 66.85 centa an ounce and these the director vegarded as too high and will reject. THIEVING SQUIRREL DRIVEN OFF Robins Successfully Defend Nest Against Marauder. A pair of robins proved too much for a marauding squirrel in Independ- ence square yesterday. While on @ midair cruise he suddenly stopped as though something special had attract- ed his attention, and then he came down the tree in a slow, unconcerned manner. The secret was out when he shyly began the ascent of another oak, in the branches of which a pair of the redbreasts had built their nest. His little eyes glistening and his whole manner that of a thief, he moved up the tree trunk, and had al- most reached the little blue eggs in the nest when the mother bird and her mate saw him and flew down from their upper perch. They were on Mr. Squirrel in an instant, and the fur flew when their beaks got into action. The retreat of the squirrel was quick- ly effected. ‘The watchers were amused. Then a second time the rob- ber advanced, and was so successful as to get one of the eggs in his paws before the birds came to the rescue. ‘The squirrel was nonplussed, as he couldn't back down with the egg with the birds pecking him, and he was loath to relinquish his hard-won prize. His hesitation was fatal, though, as the birds, with a concerted rush, fair- ly shoved him out of the nest, and the robins followed him so quickly and furiously that the egg was dropped and smashed on the ground. The squirrel then gave up his purloining expedition.—Philadelphia Record. SORES ON HANDS. Suffered for a Long Time Without Relief—Doctor Was Afraid to Touch Them—Cured by Cuticura. “For a long time I suffered with aores on the hands which were itch- ing, painful and disagreeable, I had three doctors, and derived no benefit from any of them. One doctor said he was afraid to touch my hands, so you must know how bad they were; ‘another said I never could be cured; and the third said the sores were caused by the dipping of my hands in the water in the dye-house where I work. I saw in the papers about the wonderful cures of the Cuticura Remedies and procured some of the Cuticura Soap and Cuticura Ointment. In three days after the application of the Cuticura Ointment my hands began to peel and were better. The soreness disappeared, and they are now smooth and clean, and I am still working in the dye-house. Mrs. A. B. Maurer, 2340 State St., Chicago, Ill, July 1, 1905.” ‘Tiaers Tap Rubber Trees. Near Perak in the Malay peninsula 1s a prosperous rubber factory run by a long-headed Scotchman. In order to obtain the sap from which the rubber is made it is necessary to puncture the bark of the trees. Laborers dre scarce in that district, but there are an abundance of tigers. There were not enough men to “tap” the trees, but the Scotch proprietor hit on abril: ‘ant idea. He knew that tigers are ‘fond of valerian, 50 he gave orders ‘that all the trees should be rubbed with this stuff, The tigers came up and caressingly scratched the bark in the most approved herringbone fash ion, after which all that the coolies had to do was to walk around once a day and collect the rubber. ‘Convenient Bhattah: “We become accustomed to a phrase,” observed an educator at a teachers’ convention, “but when we introduce a new one along exactly the same lines, it startles the hearer. “A number of ladies were seated in a hotel parlor, and one of them, com- menting on a woman who was stand- ing in the hallway, said: “Mrs, Loraine seems unusually hap- py this morning.” “‘Yes,’ answered companton, knowingly, ‘the ladies of Newark gave a tea in her honor yesterday. But doesn’t her husband look gloomy and dejected?’ “Phat is true.’ admitted the first speaker. ‘I presume the gentlemen of-Newark gave a beer in his honor lest night.” A WINNING START. A Perfectly Digested Breakfast Makes Nerve Force for the Day. Everything goes wrong if the break- fast lies in your stomach like a mud pie. What you eat does harm if you can’t digest it—it turns to poison. A bright lady teacher found this to be true, even of an ordinary light breakfast of eggs and toast. She says: “Two years ago I contracted a very annoying form of indigestion. My stomach was in such a condition that a simple breakfast of fruit, toast and egg gave me great distress. “I was slow to believe that trouble could come from such a simple diet but finally had to give it up, and found a great change upon a cup of hot Postum and Grape-Nuts with cream, for my morning meal. For more than a year I have held to this course and haye not suffered except when injudiciously varying my diet. “I have been a teacher for several yeara and find that my easily digested breakfast means a saving of nervous force for the entire day. My gain of ten pounds in weight also causes me to want to testify to the value of Grape-Nuts. “Grape-Nuts holds first rank at our table.” Name given by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich. “There's a reason” Read the little ook, “The Road to Wellville,” in pken. e e What is Castoria.

WINTER Seite Raion eae Scher ed eas wk Eero THE RANGE OF THE MODES THE FASHION WEEK EARLY FALL FASHIONS EARLY FALL FASHIONS What a curious change has come over the spirit of dress for the matron! Some 50 years since, she would persistently grant unto herself the shelter of the bonnet, nor dream of taking her walks abroad save under the kindly influence of the sacque or cape, and she relegated to herself sombre tones of color, and some rigid adherence to a conservative pattern of gown. Now she adopts every new mode with avidity, and determines on suiting, or at least trying to suit, her individuality to its wear. No muslin is too light for her, no pink rosebuds too juvenile; she will share allike with the girl the privileges of the cotton volle, the linen bolero, and the transparent blouse, while she will surmount her locks, dyed, fringed, curled, and even purchased, by the last exigencies of Fashion's mandate for the millinery of the hour. She is an obliging creature; she will even paint her face to simulate the pink and white bloom of youth. In nine cases out of ten such policy executes pity when not contempt, and the observer of intelligent comprehension will remember regrettfully the attractions of the lace cap and the softening influence of grey hair. However, in the tenth case the matron is quite right to adopt the fashions of the moment, but that tenth case must show her slim, upright, not too obtrusively wigged, and with the hair of color to conceal rather than reveal the wrinkles which Time plants so indiscriminately under the eyes and round about the mouth. Indeed, a very model of a summer dress for a matron such as I have in my mind's eye is made of brown and white checked cotton voile, with small white spots upon its surface; its simple gathered bodice round at the top reveals a vest formed of Valenciennes lace, joined with light brown thorn-stitching; light brown silk held by a small enamel buckle encircles the waist, the elbow sleeves of volle becoming reveal lace under-sleeves to Fashions for the early fall are appearing in the stores everywhere. From the models displayed it is evident that brown will be one of the predominating colors. Paris is expressing favor for shades of white, and some of the large New York stores are making a feature of white silks of novelty weaves. These exhibitions included satin and taffeta, brocades, pekin stripes, satin messalines and radium weaves. Model gowns are being made up in white silks, and they are also being used extensively for linings and for separate waists. New York fashion leaders are showing more favor for yellows. Linen, silk and broadcloth costumes in yellows are being worn by the ultrafashionables. A beautiful model gown in pale yellow crepe de Chine is made princess style, with a gulmpe in cream-colored Spanish lace. The gown is richly decorated in ribbon embroidery of the same tone and an appliqué of cream lace. Another model is a strictly tailored suit with half-fitting coat about 36 inches long made of yellow linen. The coat collar and cuffs are faced with black linen. To be worn with this suit is a burnt leghorn hat in one of the new drooping-brim shapes, trimmed with dull yellow plumes and yellow ribbon. In the way of millinery yellow is the full novelty, but it is used in combination with other colors. A hand-came hat in brown beaver is trimmed with large plumes showing shaded brown, peacock blue and yellow. Another hat in dull buff, almost tan color, as as a relief, an ostrich plume of full green. Brown Chantilly lace veils are, if anything, growing more popular. New felt hats are being shown with the wrist, and the broad-brimmed hat, made of brown chip, has a bunch of green oats and pale blue forget-menots at one side of the front, slanting backwards over the brim, which rests on a bandeau ruched with brown tulle. I grow daily more attracted by the pendant veil, realizing that when worn by a woman not obtrusively short, it may exercise a beneficial effect, allike upon the outline of her hat and the contour of her chin. The hardest and most unsatisfactory example of millinery I have seen softened and rendered a thing of beauty by careful and graceful adjustment of a veil of pale blue chiffon with a broad hem at the border; and a quite ordinary white linen embroidered dress, which has indeed seen its best days yester year, on being crowned by a black crinoline hat, draped by a spotted black blonde veil, takes unto itself the charms of the latest fashion, allied to a supreme becomingness. The accompanying picture illustrates two charming garden party gowns for the late fall. On number one pink roses disport themselves upon a muslin background, and plain pink muslin is used to form the little bouillonnes which deck the skirt about the knees and below them. A pale pink taffeta outlines the muslin bolero, forms the waistband, and holds the sleeves above and at the elbow. The white lawn dress, number two, has muslin frills headed by lace insertion, and the square-cut vest to the little coat shows a tucked chemisette of muslin tied with a velvet cravat. The tiny turban which crowns this is set far back on the head from the front, and has a group of Wedgwood blue feathers at the back, the hat seemingly embedded in the hair, which is pinned up to it by large knobbed tortoiseshell pins—a fashion which has come to us from Paris, and one whose departure from favor I shall bear with equanimity—even joy. ELLEN OSMONDE. these brown lace veils for mountain wear and automobiling in the early fall months. The white or light gray felt hat always makes its appearance at this season of the year. It is presented now in conjunction with the brown lace veil, and the two make a THE FASHION OF THE TWENTIETH CENTURY most attractive combination, and hold just the dash of novelty required. According to that standard fashion authority the Dry Goods Economist, one of the high novelties in fabrics for fall is the shadow embroidery on crepe de Chine. This stimulates the handwork that has been so popular and gives a very handsome effect. Paris is talking grenadines strongly for spring, 1907, and samples of many new and desirable things are being presented for spring bookings. S&N GARMENT STORE 925-16TH ST. OPP.

Look over the berries carefully, and if any imperfect ones appear, do not hesitate to throw them to one side. Into your porcelain kettle put one cupful of white sugar and just enough water to start the berries cooking, and as soon as the sugar is melted, add your berries. Cover, and watch carefully, and as soon as they reach the boiling point remove the kettle from the fire, filling the jar to within one-eighth of an inch of the top, filling this space with berries dipped from the juice. Wipe all juice from the top of the can, adjust the rubber (it is well to put the rubber on before filling) and screw on the lid as tight as possible. Invert the can and let remain thus for a few minutes; examine, and if any should be found leaking around the lid, take a small hammer or knife-handle and pound all around the edge of the lid, especially pounding down where the leak appears, taking pains to have the striking done on the lid and rubber alone. Repeat this, until no leak appears, then let the jars stand, inverted, until perfectly cool, advises a writer in the home department of The Commoner. If the jar continues to leak, open, empty the contents, reheat, and try another lid; or it may be the rubber that is at fault, but generally, the lid is ill-fitting. Wrap the cans in thick paper when putting them away, as the light affects the color of some fruits, and spoils the flavor of others. One of the very best helps in canning time is a steam cooker; or an old-fashioned steamer is just as good. The jars may be filled with the uncooked fruit, the top put on loosely and, steamed until hot through, filling part of the jars with the contents of ethers, as the berries settle down when heated. The same care must be taken to have the fruit "boiling hot" in the jar as when canning by cooking it in a kettle. It keeps its "looks" much better when canned by steam, and does not so much as lose its shape. When cooked thus, no water is added to the fruit when the jar is filled—the fruit, aided by the steam, will make its own juice. The water under the steamer or in the cooker must be boiling briskly when the jars are set in, and it must not be allowed to cease from boiling while the jars are inside. It is the steam which cooks, and there must be plenty of it. ABOUT GLASS IN THE BATHROOM Glass Appointments Are Not Necessarily Expensive and Are Ideal. Many a bathroom is fitted out with glass appointments—shelves and racks (the long bars held in place by trimming of nickel), soap cups and the "little fixings," all of glass. Even the wooden window sills in an occasional bathroom are removed and a heavy glass shelf substituted, says the Chicago Chronicle. Fortunately, glass of the quality used for such purposes is not necessarily expensive, although, as in everything else, the question of how much it shall cost really depends upon the individual buyer. Bowls and cooking spoons of glass—heavy, but almost unbreakable with ordinary handling—are so satisfactory, by virtue of their cleanliness, that the woman who tries either or both instantly becomes a convert to their use. Perhaps the most unusual glass-made piece of all is a rolling-pin, hollow, and so made that it can be opened and the hollow filled with cracked ice, when working with pastry, which must be kept well chilled, even during the rolling process. Great slabs of glass make the best sort of pie and bread boards. To Clean Matting To clean matting it should be first swept thoroughly with a stiff broom, following the grain of the straw, then swept across the grain with a soft broom that has been dipped in warm water in which a handful of salt has been dissolved. Nothing brightens colored matting so much as the salt and, moreover, it goes far to prevent it fading. The light-colored matting should be washed in water in which borax has been dissolved. If any grease spots are noticed before the matting is cleansed cover them with a mixture of prepared chalk wet with turpentine, which, after being allowed to remain on for two days, should be removed with a stiff brush. In the event of the grease having sunk in about one-eighth of washing soda added to the mixture will be effectual. Sweet milk is said to keep the matting in a good state of preservation and it is only necessary to use the application about once a year. To Shrink Linen. For shrinking linen the following instructions have been found to be very satisfactory: First, after a bathtub has been carefully dusted fill it about quarter full with clear cold water. It should be first filtered if it is at all dark or cloudy. Then, leaving the linen in its folds, wrap it in a clean towel and allow it to remain in the water over night. When taken out in the morning do not wring the water from it, but leaving it still folded hang it up dripping. It will take some time to dry, but the material will be thoroughly shrunken and will not need to be pressed. So Rugs Won't Curl. Strips of stiff buckram sewed along the edges of rugs will prevent them curling up. To Keep Away Rust. A good blacking will protect the hea-ing stoves from summer dampness, which so quickly generates rust. --- DO YOU KNOW THAT The Colorado Statesman Is Now Prepared To Do All Kinds of Job Printing?
