MONEY SAVED BY PATRONIZING MERCHANTS WHO ADVERTISE IN THIS PAPER. THE COLORADO STATESMAN THE JOURNAL OF THE WEST. LABOR SHALL BE FREE RACE COUNTRY PARTY MASSACRE Is a Fitting Term to apply to the way the Atlanta Negroes were Treated by the Barbarious, Negro- Hating Whites. MASS Is a Fitting Term to apply to were Treated by the Hating The New York Independent had the following to say editorially of the Atlanta outrage; Those that sow the wind must reap the whirwind. We wonder if they like the harvest in Atlanta. Those that sowed it were Hoke Smith and Clark Howell. Each wished to be governor of Georgia, and each controlled a newspaper. A chief claim of their plea for support, which each made with strident tongue and screaming type, was his superior hatred of the Negro. "If made governor," said Hoke Smith, "I will have illiteracy laws passed that will shut out every Negro from the ballot and let in every white man. "No." said Clark Howell, "we can shut him out in a better way, with taxes; for your law will shut out white men. And did not Hoke Smith," Clark Howell continued, "when Secretary of the Interior under Cleveland, give a six-hundred dollar clerkship to a Negro which ought to have gone to a white man?" And John Temple Graves, who had another paper, and would have liked to be governor of Georgia, joined the chorus in his own way, damning the Negro, each of these three distinguished citizens of the capital city of the South vying with the others in cursing the Negro, the freed Negro, the Negro that was trying to get education and wealth, the Negro ambitious to rise and succeed, in the city famous not least for its Negro seminaries and colleges. And the Negroes were angered. In one and another conference the cultured, self-respecting Negroes of Georgia and the country express their indignation and made their demands for equal civil rights. The most peaceful among them, who had gone down from New York to Alabama to praise the path of peace along which Booker Washington was leading them by the arts of industry and the acquisition of modest wealth, editors and bankers, came back incensed with the insults they had received, and ready to join with DuBois and Trotter in their Niagara movement. One of the best known of the Negro bishops, leaving the train at Atlanta, passing out through the main passage way State Historical and N F Society, Denver, Colo SAVED BY PATI COLOR ACRE the way the Atlanta Negroes Barbarious, Negro- Whites. of the station, was halted by a policeman and told that niggers could not leave that way, but must leave by a side door. If intelligent men, accustomed to self-restraint, were thus incensed, what would be the effect on the worthless, reckless Negroes whom Atlanta had educated in the dives and saloons, and who had been told that their chief passion was to insult white women? Then came the reports of attempted assaults by black fiends, some true, some imaginary, and the Atlanta News called on the white men to rise in Ku-Klux Klans and exterminate the race; and Clark Howell's paper demanded that the laws against vagrancy be applied to every black man that loitered about a saloon. Indeed, had not one of the other millionaire candidates for governor got rich out of a Negro convict camp? Then came the whirlwind, well prepared, faithfully sown. Two Negroes were arrested on the charge of attempted assault. One escaped; the other, who was certainly innocent, was seized by a mob from the officers and killed. But that was not enough. The passion so carefully incited by vicious journals had bidden them, offering a thousand dollars reward. So they attacked any Negro they could find, riding in a jim crow seat in a trolley car, or walking home from work. They even broke into a barber's shop and seized and killed two Negroes quietly plying their trade. No one knows how many Negroes were killed, a dozen at least, probably a great many more, and they were wounded by the hundred. It was as bad as a massacre of Jews in Russia, as senseless and as bar barous—and we ask our President to protest to the Russian government against Kishinef, Bialystok and Ciedlce! And this is not the end of it. The disturbances and riots continue. Of course they do. They are provoked. A hundred Negroes met Monday night in their lodge room to protest, and they talked bitterly. It was reported to the police and they came to arrest them, and there was shooting and killing on both sides. There had Continued to fourth page. DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 13, 1906. OUR CANDIDATE FOR SECRETARY OF STATE. A word about the candidate for secretary of state on the Republican ticket. Mr. O'Connor was born in Waukegan, Wisconsin, in 1851, was educated at the Sharon Normal and Scientific School of Sharon, Wisconsin; came to Colorado in 1879. He first settled in Leadville as a miner, afterwards became a mine superintendent. He did not neglect opportunity for further fitting himself for active life, studied law and was admitted to practice after examination before the Supreme Court. He was elected clerk of the Sixth General Assembly. He was a member of the Eighth assembly of the legislature, was renominated for the Ninth assembly but went down TIMOTHY Republican Candidate with the Republican ticket in the wave of populism which swept the state. Mr. O'Connor has been deputy secretary of state under Secretary Cowie for the past four years and by his administration has put the secretary of state's office in the shape as a business department. Mr. O'Connor's home is in Boulder and as he is in line of promotion his election ought to be overwhelming. He is not new or untried timber, but in every sense is fitted to step up higher. When the Republican convention chose Timothy O'Connor for secretary of state there was no dissappointment to those who knew this splendid gentleman and the great office to which he was called to fill. That the colored voters of Colo- rado should be especially interested in this office and its nominee it not to be wondered at when you stop and think that this was the first state office opened for a clerkship to the colored voters of Colorado. The race does not wish to lose what it has so arduously sought to obtain and since this much was accomplished, it was a question in their minds whether they would be called upon to step down and out and give place to others who do not have the trouble we have to secure places of trust. But since Mr. O'Connor has been selected to fill this important place our anxiety is set at rest. The Colorado Statesman takes pleasure in placing before its many readers the cut of Mr. O'Connor and to ask their suffrage that he be especially given your support. We have every reason to O'CONNOR, for Secretary of State. believe that the race will lose nothing in giving him your vote. That this important office will again have a strong man at the helm and that the colored people will have a representative in the clerical department. Mr. O'Connor's interests are identical with our own His qualification, experience, are all that can be desired. The state will have a first-class administration, the party a splendid representative and the Negro a good friend in Mr. O'Connor. Police Present Ambulances. The police of Lancashire have presented to the townships over which they have jurisdiction forty-six handsome ambulances, many of them costing $500. The money was raised by means of football matches and other athletic sports. GRAND JUNCTION NOTES. Republicans Open Campaign with Enthusiastic Meeting.—Wedding Nuptials and Other Social Events of the Grand Valley. Joe Davis of Cheyenne, is expected here soon. Mrs. Wm. Sheldon is expecting to move in her new house soon. Mr. and Mrs. Carrie of Montrose thinks Grand Junction a delightful place to visit. Marcus Hines who has been sick for the past four months has recovered and is now attending school again. The Mesa County Fair and Fruit exhibit has passed into history as one of the most successful exhibitions of the western slope. Messrs. Frank Butler and Grant Hamilton have taken charge of the culinary department of Haines' ranch during the apple picking season. Three more matrimonial harnesses are being rapidly adjusted and some very pleasant surprises are in store for the COLORADO STATESMAN. Cupid has darted down into the Carnation Art club and captured the president, Mrs. Fannie Warfield. The club is wondering if she will be caged here or taken to Pueblo. John Price will entertain on the 16th a number of friends in honor of the 18th birthday of his eldest daughter, Miss Bessie. Miss Price is a very brilliant mumber in our high school and Grand Junction looks forward to her graduation with pride, as she will be the first colored student to receive a diploma. The colored citizens of Grand Junction are among the most hospitable people of this or any other state. During fair week a grand ball and supper is given to all the visitors who attend the fair; this year was no exception but rather an eclipse of our previous efforts. The large and spacious Turner hall was beautifully decorated. One hundred people vied with each other in tripling the light fantastic until a late hour. The Republicans opened the campaign at Park Opera house Thursday. Rev. Buchtel, candidate for governor and Gen. Geo. W. Cook, nominee for congress at large, were the prominent speakers. Rev. Buchtel is regarded as the best orator and campaigner in the state, while the reputation of Gen. Cook is not confined to the State of Colorado or the west. Many of our local candidates also addressed the meeting on local issues. This is a Republican year and much enthusiasm is al NO. 3. ready being shown. The county ticket is composed of brains, honests, capability and good citizenship and every nominee feels sure of an election and by a large majority. One of the prettiest weddings that was ever solemnized in Grand Valley occurred at the residence of Mrs. Lottie Scott last Tuesday, the contracting parties being Miss Anna W. Coleman of Clifton and Mr. Arthur W. Jones of Grand Junction. The bride was beautifully gowned in white Henrietta trimmed in baby Irish lace and applique and carried a lovely bouquet of bridal roses artistically designed by Mrs. T. P. Langon, which was the bride's only ornament. The groom wore the conventional black. Miss Anna O. Newman was the maid of honor and Mr. Clark Hines best man. Clayton's grand march was performed by Mrs. Langon. The guests, about fifty in number, included the most select society of Clifton, Palisach and Grand Junction. Many beautiful and costly presents were received. RACE NEWS Gathered from Various Sources.

Cruel Interruption • That Saddened Love's Young Dream. Prof. G. A. Hill of the National observatory was describing the duties of an astronomical corps during an eclipse. "The eclipse," he said, "may only last five minutes. Each man in the party has a certain lins of work mapped out for him during these precious minutes. One man makes hurried pencil sketches. Another man photographs. A third man takes observations, while a fourth jots down his remarks. "And so it goes. An astronomical corps during an eclipse is a very busy body. An interruption would be as t welcome to it as—as—" Prof. Hill smiled. "An interruption would be as unwelcome to it as it once was to a young friend of mine in Elizabeth. "My friend, according to the story, was calling on his sweetheart, who lived on Elizabeth's outskirts. "As the young man was taking leave for the night, his voice, as he stood on the plaza, rose passionately in the still air. "Just one,' he said. 'Just one.' "Then the young girl's mother interrupted, calling from her bedroom window: "Just one? No, it ain't quite that yet. But it's close on to 12, so I think ye'd better he goin' just the same." The gunsmith laid down his newspaper, which contained an exciting article about a burglar's capture by an heilress. "Business will be good to-day," he said. "This burglar's capture by an armed young woman will have a bulling effect on the revolver trade. "All householders feel that for protection they should have revolvers at hand, but they put off visiting the gunsmith, as one puts off getting his teeth filled. It takes an episode like this to recall them to their duty. They perceive that the heilress, because she had a revolver, saved herself some thousands of dollars in silver and jewels. Accordingly, they hurry to the right shop and invest in a reliable weapon. "A good newspaper account of a burglar's repulse by an armed householder has often, to my knowledge, quadrupled that day's gun and revolver sales." The man smiled. "In fact, I might say," he ended, "that burglar's are our best revolver salesmen." NEWS OF THE WEEK Most Important Happenings of the Past Seven Days.

Nervous debility is the common name for what the doctors term neurasthenia. It is characterized by mental depression, fits of the "blues," or melancholy, loss of energy and spirits. The patient's eye become dull, the pink fades from the cheeks, the memory becomes defective so that it is difficult to recall dates and names at will. Some of these symptoms only may be present or all of them. The remedy lies in toning up the nervous system and there is no medicine better adapted for this purpose than Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. Mrs. Jane J. Davies, of No. 314 Warren street, Scranton, Pa., says: "Some years ago I became greatly reduced in health and strength and my nervous system became so debilitated that I felt wretched. I could not rest or sleep well at night and woke up as weary and languid in the morning as I was when I went to bed. My head ached in the morning and often there was a pain in my right side which was worse when I sat down. My nerves were on edge all the time, every little noise bothered me and I was generally miserable. Then I decided to try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People, as my husband had taken them with good results, and they did wonders for me. Now I have no more pain in my side, no more headaches, I sleep well and feel strong and able to do my work." Dr. Williams' Pink Pills cured Mrs. Davies and they can do just as much for other weak, pale, ailing men or women who are slipping into a hopeless decline. They strike straight at the root of all common diseases caused by poor and impoverished blood. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are sold by all druggists, or will be sent postpaid, on receipt of price, 50 cents per box, six boxes for $2.50, by the Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Schenectady, N.Y. What He Most Wished For. What He Most Wished For. John Fiske, the American historian, was an ardent lover of music and himself no mean musician. Furthermore, he was extremely corulent and felt the hot weather painfully. He was once delivering a course of lectures at a summer school in a small city of the middle west. The heat was terrific and adjoining the house where the lecturer stayed was a church where an ill-matched but zealous "quartet" practiced and performed during all hours of the torrid afternoons and evenings. One evening, seeing the famous man sit for a time unoccupied and apparently oppressed by this combined affliction, the young daughter of his hostess attempted to divert him by offering him a new novel, then just becoming popular. "I think 'The Choir Invisible' is perfectly splendid, Mr. Fiske," said she. "Would'n you like to read it?" The historian put the book aside. "My dear young lady," said he, "the only choir in the world in which I could feel any interest at this moment would be the choir inaudible."

Colorado is in a position to have the ores from her mines treated in smelters that are under a variety of different managements. There are eight smelters, all told, in operation in the state, and three of these are independent of all the others, and five are under the management of the American Smelting and Refining Company. There is an independent smelter at Salida, one in Denver, and one in Silverton, all running in good shape, which permits the miner to sell his ore wherever he wishes. A great deal of harm has been done in the East by the statement that people investing in mines in Colorado were under the restraint of being compelled to have their ores treated in smelters that were all under one management. As a matter of fact, there is plenty of competition and that keeps down the cost of smelting, and gives the man with money invested in mines every opportunity to thrive. The American Smelting and Refining Company has twenty-five plants scattered about in the United States and Old Mexico, but claims it is not making any great profits off of its Colorado investments, because the competition here with the independent plants is so brisk, besides the ores of Colorado are proverbially low grade, and the working charge at the smelters is necessarily made on a minimum basis. The American Smelting and Refining Company, which is in part controlled by the Guggenhelms, is about to spend a million dollars in the state to put in a new system of mechanical roasters, and has ample confidence in the future of Colorado. The company has idle plants in Denver, Pueblo and Leadville, which were constructed at a large expense, and which will be called into requisition as the mining interests in the state grow and metals advance. Just now they are a tremendous caarge upon the companies that built them, and the fact that they are kept ready to operate on short notice shows how fully their builders are confident in the future of this great mining state. Only Domestic Application. The secretary of agriculture has received from the attorney general the text of the important opinion rendered by the latter in answering in the negative the question submitted to him, as to whether or not the meat inspection law passed at the last session of Congress applies to meat products imported into the United States from foreign countries. Mr. Moody held that the provisions of the meat inspection amendments have reference entirely to domestic slaughtering. LEARN EXPERT SHORTHAND New, quick method; $15 to $25 position guaranteed.

A few weeks ago there was a great howl among colored voters about independents, and the putting of a representative colored man on the independent ticket. Curbstone conferences were held, meetings appointed and even a candidate selected, but what are the results? The independents have vanished into thin air, the candidate quiescent and the party gone up the spout. Better come back in the old camp, boys, and do business with the powers that be. REPUBLICAN STATE TICKET State Chairman John F. Vivian is the right man in the right place. He has before him a splendid campaign and a winning ticket. He is a man who knows how to make things go and helps to make them go. He is genial, affable and considerate of all interests. He slights no man, no candidate, no voter, no interest and no section. He sees and understands the situation from every compass point and keeps things moving harmoniously and swiftly so that the Republicans have every assurance that they will sweep the state for their ticket. The candidates on the state ticket this year are those who personally inspire confidence in the success of the party. There is not a weak candidate on the list from top to bottom. Their intelligence, character and strength speaks for itself. Chairman Vivian succeeds that strong and clear-headed man of affairs in the person of D. B. Farley, who brought the ticket, heavy loaded as it was two years ago, to success. There can be no doubt but what Chairman John F. Vivian, with his long experience, extended acquaintance and fair dealing, will carry the Republican majority this year up into the thousands. Chairman Vivian, has lived in Colorado for thirty-eight years and for the past twenty years has been actively engaged in politics, is at present mayor of Golden and secretary of the Golden Milling Company. He is friendly to all classes and knows how to meet men in every walk of life. He tries not to promise more than he can fulfill, but once his word is out he endeavors to make good. The Colorado Statesman takes pleasure in commending him and the whole state ticket to the voters of Colorado on November 6th for their unqualified indorsement and support. POLITICAL UPHEAVALS OF THE COLORED PRESS. The Negro press has its comic as well as its serious vein, its amusing as well as its economic problems to face. The colored press looked at as a whole is a family that gets on remarkably well together. Like a giant the colored press has its strength and like Sampson it has its weakness. Last week The Colorado Statesman in a merry vein took the opportunity to welcome our esteemed contemporary (The Statesman) back into the Republican family fold, to forgive its childish impetuosity of two years ago, and without spanking it for its misbehavior, we asked it in the future to be good and obey its paternal head. But just as we had gotten Brother Franklin quieted and fed, Lo! trouble breaks out in Colorado Springs. Did you see the Enterprise last week? (It is presumed many read it in Denver). It has always been a good Republican child, perhaps orphan, and though it is only a few years old it has always been politically well fed. But now it comes out in a headline, "Where Are We At?" signed by Editor Muse. If you want us to answer Brother Charles, presumably you are in the soup or out in the cold. What strange bee has stung The Enterprise? Why, we thought you were a stand-patter, Brother Charlie, a died-in-the-wool, always-at-home Republican. Didn't they let you into the family fruit jar? Then there are Messrs. Porter and Simpson, editors of the Advance, just born, two weeks old, with a lusty appetite crying for milk, more milk. Also Brooks, of Pueblo, trying to wedge his fingers in the preserve jar while somebody in Denver is holding the lid on. But come, cheer up, little men, get back in the family fold, don't stray too far from the Republican threshold; you might get stolen by those wicked Independents or bad Democrats. It is only some new arrangements, colored people are now getting together and conducting their own affairs politically. You will get yours, but you must produce the goods. Father J. W. Jackson is a good man, and will give you a square deal without favorites. Get back in the bunch and work and your oats will be alright, but you will have to eat them from a new stall and feed box. They will taste just as good when you have learned how new arrangement is working success to all. FACTS AND LIGHT ON THE ATLANTA RIOTS. The colored people all along contended that when the truth was brought to light that the Negro was not the aggressor or transgressor in Atlanta. Now the facts are at hand and our prophecy justified. The Independent, a magazine published in New York, gives the cause in a brief article, the substance of which follows: "The cause arose from four sources, one remote, three immediate. The remote cause was the hot political contest between Hoke Smith and Clark Howell. Both candidates openly avowed that Negroes have absolutely no rights save those granted them by sufferance by the whites. What a farce. The immediate causes were: first, It was asserted by newspapers—the News and Georgian—that five assaults had occurred in one week and an additional one on the fatal Saturday—not one of which has been proved. Second, there is a sharp rivalry between three Atlanta newspapers for patronage, each using the Negro to attract readers among a population that can best be secured by abusing and villifying the colored race. Third, there is fact growing up in that city a increasing number of educated and prosperous colored people whose success is an eyesore to many whites, but whose prosperity cannot be hindered as the facts well demonstrate." Here is the aggravating truth. A Negro boy went into a white woman's yard to deliver a laundry parcel. She screamed and cried that the youth was attempting to assault her. A mob began to assemble. The newspapers were circulating "extras" under glaring headlines, "Another Assault." Then separate and extra editions, each more terrifying than the other, appearing hourly until dark, saying, "Another Assault," and advocating the gathering of a mob, even offering money reward to slay colored people. It is coming out little by little that the whole affair was deliberately planned. Negro barbers were dragged out of their shops while shaving white men, and their places of business demolished. One of the finest shops in the entire country had the front glass smashed because the owner was colored. The true explanation of the riot is found in economic causes. If the Negro was content to be wholly idle, improvident and worthless, all classes would treat him with the easy tolerance still shown by aristocratic Southern families. It is the Negro effort to rise above the environment of slavery that has influenced class hatred and leads mobs to murder him in cold blood. It is this industrial progress and this alone that makes color a crime, not only in the Southland, but North, East and West. It is unfortunate that several Negro journals lay this matter to that indefatigable leader, Booker T. Washington, but Mr. Washington is no more responsible than any successful colored merchant, lawyer or educator in Colorado. In inspiring the Negro to go into business and win merit and wealth Mr. Washington is but following the natural law of successful efforts that has lifted other peoples from poverty and degradation. As a people begin to advance new complications arise. These must be successfully met and overcome and this the Negro is doing. Let him go on, these little disturbances should not frighten or hinder him. He must pay the price and meet the conditions, and this he is rapidly doing. MASSACRE. (Continued from first page.) been the day before a meeting of white people to protest, and they had not been disturbed by the police; but that Negroes should meet and talk was "seditious" and that they should arm themselves in defense was dangerous, although one shop had sold $16,000 worth of arms and ammunition to white men. What will be the end of it all? We cannot guess, but we know that to their latest day of life a pall of shame and horror ought to rest on Hoke Smith, Clark Howell, John Temple Graves, and every other man who has stirred up this race hatred, violence and crime, and brought this ringing curse on Atlanta and the disgraced State of Georgia. RACE NEWS. Continued from first page ligions in Chicago, Sept. 15, 1893, and presided at the Ecumenical conference of Methodists in London, Sept. 7, 1901. Washington, Oct. 8.—Counseling his race to keep the peace, but to be prepared to defend themselves against mobs with weapons, the Rev. Frances J. Grimke, a Negro clergyman, pastor of the Fifteenth Street Presbyterian church yesterday delivered a sermon on the Atlanta race riots. "The duty of the Negro is to make it as perilous as possible for the mob. When the mob understands from actual experience that there are blows to take as well as blows to give, it won't be so quick to organize. The only thing which makes them think twice before acting is the fear of being injured. "There is but one way to deal with a mob, and that is to shoot to death, to riddle it with bullets or use dynamite. The Negro then will be doing himself and the whole South a service." Argenta, Ark., Oct. 8.—Quiet today followed the storm scenes that have been enacted in Argenta accross the Arkansas river from Little Rock, during the last two days. Mayor Faucette today issued an order for everybody with the exception of officers to disarm and the order has been generally followed. An inquest was held by the coroner today over the body of H. G. Blackman, the Negro who was lynched in Argenta Sunday night, and the jury returned a verdict that Blackburn came to his death at the hands of unknown persons. Neither Garrett Colum, Charles nor Lewis Styles, the Negroes charged with killing John Lindsay Saturday night or wounding his son, Policeman Milton Lindsay, have been captured. No further trouble is anticipated unless the fugitives Negroes are captured and brought here. Jacksonville, Fla., Sept. 20. Hon. John S. Beard, State Senator and a prominent lawyer, has promised to introduce in the next Florida Legislature an amendment to the State constitution providing that none but white persons shall be eligible as electors in this State. His purpose is to test the legality of the Fifteenth Amendment of the United States Constitution. Mr. Beard's bill would do with frankness, what the South has heretofore dared to accomplish only by tergiversation. He would openly disfranchise Afro-Americans on account of their color, whereas the South has disfranchised them under the subterfuges of the "grandfather clauses," poll taxes and educational and property qualifications. Mr. Beard's proposed bill has thrown a violent scare into the Southern whites and has delighted Southern Afro-Americans. THE BEAM IN OUROWN EYE "In the face of the Atlanta Negro massacre," says the Detroit News.Tribune, "the American people and the American press should be somewhat modest in denouncing the Russians for the slaughter of Jews in Odessa, Bialystok and elsewhere. Indeed, at all timss, it would be better for people to look after the mending of their own manners before lecturing others on that subject, but after the Georgia abomination we should be very modest in criticism of other countries. "There has been little even in the first exaggerations of the Jewish persecutions that has not been paralleled at Atlanta The victims of the murderous mob have almost in every case been entirely innocent of the crimes which have served as provocation against a white race. The guilty are safe in prison or free and at large, hidden from both police and rioters. The innocent wayfarer upon the street, the law abiding workman at his labor, and even the home-keeping citizen, has in nearly a score of cases been done to death by mobs made up apparently of by no means the ordinary criminal class but of men of recognized standing in a community which ranks as high in civilization as any city of the southern states; a community full of churches, school houses, hospitals and other institutions of Christian civilization; a community which boasted of its refinement and held its head as high as any in the nation. "Atlanta cannot shift the responsibility of this inhuman atrocity upon its criminal class. One of its own newspapers incited it in advance, and while the general opinion may deplore the affair as a disgrace to the city and an injury to the good name of Georgia, there does not seem to be any very poignant regret for the fate of the innocent negroes who were slaughtered with methods worthy of savages. "Nor can the blame be put upon the foreign immigrants who comes in for so much criticism lately as an influence of determination in our population. The South is the purest bred section in the country. There, if anywhere in the union, there may be said to be a simonpure American race which has been unmixed for four or five generations of any taint of European blood. Surely the South needs above all other sections the civilizing Christianizing influence which would come to it with a liberal injection of new immigrants from older and more law abiding populations. "The fearful question will arise in many minds: Is this the climax of anti-Negro ferocity in the South, or is it, as many fear, the opening of a savage warfare which will soak the soil with innocent blood of both races? Should the latter fear be justified, the southern states can hardly be left to solve the problem for themselves. Should such scenes be repeated, the nation could not ignore the obligation of common humanity." INCITED BY PRESS INCITED BY PRESS It must not be forgotten, however, that while the mobs have offended against the law of the land, there are Georgians not of the mobs who have offended against the moral law by perpetuating in speech and press the hatreds of their race toward the weaker race and thereby inciting Negro hating mobs to gather and kill. To spead of this sort of thing as a race war is to wrench words. It is not war to kill non-resistants, and the Negro at the South has been non-resistant. But in the face of such provocation as the outrage at Atlanta, the Negro may not always remain non-resistant. We are hearing much from the South of the "uppishness" of the new generation of Negroes. The older Negroes, it is said, are docile, and the white race have no difficulty in getting along with them; but the new Negro is aggressive and resentful. God help the white community where that is a fact, and which allows its mobs to kill with impunity unresisting Negroes. For the "uppishness" of the new Negro means that human nature in the Negro is asserting itself, and that the time is approaching when the upturned faces after a "race war" will not all be black. White men cannot forever mob and slay the people of another race, however docile that race may seem to be, without in time being mobbed and slain in turn. And if it be true, as white men say, that the Negro is still in a savage state, what horrors may we not expect when his savage affection and docility turn to savage vengeance in retaliation for generations of wrongs at the hands of the race that now mobs him? It is well to disarm the Negroes of Atlanta, as the authorities there are now doing, in order to prevent retaliation; it would be better to prevent the race-hating outrages by whites which excite to retaliation—The Public. BIBICAL PREDICTIONS The bewilderment of life is strange and perplexing. The life we are living has no certain rule that guarantees surety. It's chance from beginning to end. There are many creeds and forms of religion and yet none are able to exist beyond the Bible. Outside of its teachings science is unable to guide us, by a system which assures safety but simply gives us theory. The prediction of the Bible come true with every generation. Things of today are just as they were predicted by those inspired to prophesy in ancient days among the antiquated nations. The Bible says there is nothing new, nothing new that has not already been. If this be true then those who prophesy were thoroughly competent to know what would exist among the nations who should follow. We today are using the science of the of the Egyptians, Greeks, Romans and other older nations and have not added one thing that's new to science. We are using electricity in a more practical way than in former years, but at the same time we have not discovered what it really is, other than it pertains to the elements, science undoubtedly knew this a thousand years ago. The Bible predicted numerous false prophets, wars, earthquakes, etc. It predicted the time would come when men would be of unsound mind and that ministers would not preach sound doctrine, women would lose affection for man and care more for each other. The Bible predicted many other things, too numerous to mention. World (Columbus, Ohio.) THE HOWLAND FUR SALE . The Oldest and Largest Fur and Milliner Store in Denver.

That Isn't Much, and it's a Good, Safe Bet That You'll Feel Justified After It's Over. For nearly thirty years we've known a good many of you personally, have been trying to meet your needs—have built up the most complete telephone system in the country—bar none. The percentage of people whom you can reach in the city of Denver or the state of Colorado is exceeded by no telephone system anywhere. Further than this, we have built this splendid plant by a system of financing that is above reproach. We have no watered stock, no preferred stock, no bonds, no modern "high finance" methods to hide or apologize for. Every dollar expended to build up our plant has been paid into our treasury for stock at no less than par. We have gone further than this, we have made it possible for you to come into partnership with us on this basis—that we might be in truth a Home institution. Some four hundred of you are members of our firm right now, and all of you that are so know this to be true, that we have never paid a dividend in excess of seven per cent per year, and that every dividend we have paid has been honestly earned. We know that promoters have endeavored to make you believe differently—that you have been told that we made extraordinary profits. Other people have tried to make you believe that our stock was not worth护. Just use your common sense; some one has been lying to you; because those two statements won't jibe. Why should anyone attempt to deceive you except to hide or excuse their own transactions. Everybody knows that any business that has no watered stock, no preferred stock and no bonds is cleanly financed—it's impossible to juggle plain common stock figures. Now just a word about this so-called New Home Telephone Company—plain talk, mind you—first of all, why is it called a Home company? Isn't that an attempt to deceive? Not one Denver name is on its list of stockholders. Do you suppose it is to stop what they call a "monopoly" of the telephone business that they want a franchise here, or is it a scheme to take some Denver money out to Los Angeles? Now about these rates they talk of so glibly. Some of you have been told that residence telephone rates will go down to seventy-five cents a month if the "New Home" Telephone Company gets a franchise. Others of you have been asked to sign a petition that said their rate would be $2.25 a month for a residence telephone. Do you know what their proposed franchise says? It says their lowest rate is to be $2.75 a month, and is to be increased to $4.00 a month when they get 14,000 telephone subscribers. Thats what the franchise that is printed on the official ballot to be voted on November 6th says, and that's the only thing that counts. That's considerably different from their 75c talk and their $2.25 talk, isn't it? Is that trickery or did they really expect you to read that long ballot through before you put it in the box? Now, if a man tries to trick you twice would you really think he meant well by you? Wouldn't you kind of look around for another trick? Well, he's got one up his sleeve, just like this: In Toledo, Ohio, in Baltimore, Maryland, in Pittsburg, Pennsylvania, in Cleveland, Ohio, and in a number of other cities, a nice, smooth promoter came along and put up a nice, smooth talk about starting a new telephone company with lower rates than the "Bell monopoly" charged. He said, "I'll print 'em in my franchise to prove it to you'"—and he did print 'em, but he didn't prove it, because just as soon as he got his little plant started and his stock sold—(mind that, his stock sold) it was discovered that his little plant couldn't make a living at the low rate he printed in the franchise, and the Supreme Court kindly gave a decision that even if he did print 'em he didn't have to stand by 'em—and he didn't. He raised the rates a whole lot, right up to the old Bell rates, in fact—because the old Bell rates were fair, and he only talked about lower rates until he buncooed the public out of a franchise and sold his stock. If you have any doubt about it, you ask anybody in any of these towns. Just use your common sense; if we have more subscribers in Denver than in any city of like size in the world. it's pretty good evidence that you've got about as much for your money as any telephone company anywhere can give, isn't it? We don't claim to be always right, and always fair—neither are you—you come pretty near being wrong and unfair when you swallowed all this promoter's hot air about "rates" and "Home" Companies, didn't you? But most of the time you're pretty decent, and so are we. You're inclined to give an old acquaintance a square deal, and so are we, and so we're going to point out to you old acquaintances just exactly what two telephone systems means to you. In every city of a size comparable to Denver, where a second telephone system started, from 331-3 to 75 percent of the people have been obliged to take telephone service from both companies, and they, consequently, pay more for their service. You've been told that we'd cut our rates if the "New Home" Company got its franchise. Are you going to believe that just because they say so, or are you going to make use of that common sense of yours that the "New Home" Telephone Company is trying to bluff you out of? What do the "New Home" Company know about our rates? Up to date they haven't seemed to know much about their own (75c, $2.25, $2.75, $4.00, all for the same thing). We've cut rates before, and we may again when we can afford it, but it won't be because any "New Home" Company from California says so. If they just explain why everybody in Los Angeles is "kickling" about this automatic service that they boast of here in Denver, and keep still about the rate question they'll come nearer to talking real telephone business. Perhaps they think you'll swallow their automatic talk, too. They forget to tell you that the Bell Telephone Company owns patents on a good automatic system, but that in any automatic system the apparatus is so delicate that it's out of order nearly all the time. Talk about your "wait-less, cussless" apparatus, as they describe it; people out in Los Angeles say that's so, but it's "wait-less" "cause it won't wait on you, and it's "cussless" because when you cuss it can't cuss back, cause it's out of order and can't talk at all. You just stick to common sense and cut out this promotion hot air, and do some investigating on your own hook. Much obliged for that five minutes time. Your (for the last thirty years and for all time to come). THE COLORADO TELEPHONECOMPANY. P. S.—Forgot to say anything about toll lines around the state; so did the promoter; but then he hasn't any and we have, so you can think that much over for yourself. A BIG STORE. We were in one of the big Sixteenth street stores the other day and it seemed to us that Denver is remarkably fortunate in one of her dry goods stores. So much effort is made to keep all the details right up to the highest point of good taste. In this store, which, by the way, is A. T. Lewis and Son's, we noticed that there is evident care taken to change the displays often so that there is no monotony, and the decorations are always fresh and usually something with a bit of originality here and there. We noticed on their second floor that oriental rugs and palms and fine plate glass cases are being used to enhance the beauty of surroundings for the women's clothing and millinery and that the millinery is fully in keeping with the rest of the floor for beauty and style. It doesn't matter much what priced hat you look at they all seem to be beautiful. Then they were all so nice to us there in showing us the pretty things. Though we were not intending to buy, they went on opening cases and boxes and drawers to let us see all the ideas for fall and winter. We compliment this firm.

CHINESE MAY BE EMPLOYED Commission Finally Decides On Con- tract System—President Still In- tends to Visit Isthmus. Washington.—It has finally been de- cided that the Panama canal will be completed by contract. In a few days the commission will make public a statement setting forth its reasons for favoring the contract system, and at that time a form of contract will also probably be published showing ex- actly the sort of document believed by the commissioners to be necessary for safeguarding the work. President Roosevelt igs known to support the commission in its position ‘that the work can be done more satis- factorily by contractors than by the government. He had a long confer- ence with Chairman Shonts to-day on the subject, and the various arguments m favor of the contract system were discussed fully. This chanage in building the canal will in no way affect the employment of Chinese labor. Proposals for fur- nishing the Chinese labor were made under such conditions that they can be transferred to contractors and the terms can be fulfilled in such a man- ner that the government ean give the coolies just as much protection as it could if the government were the di- rect employer. It is likely that no disposition will be made in the bids for supplying Chi- nese labor until after the return of Sec- retary Taft from Cuba, as he assisted in drawing the specifications under which proposals were offered and 1s much interested in the conditions un- der which the Chinese are to be taken to the isthmus. President Roosevelt still intends to visit the isthmus this fall, and, unless there be a change for the worse in the Cuban situation, will probably leave for Colon a short time after election.

A. 1700 Stout Street, Denver, Colorado. Smelter Company is to Boost the State and Boom Zinc Mining. Zine mining in Colorado will be sent booming by the recent action of the American Smelting and Refining Com- pany, which will install a series of ‘magnetic separating plants and double the capacity immediately of its zinc plant in Pueblo in this state. The ‘cost of these various improvements will be enormous and will be an under- taking of a pioneer nature, nothing of the Kind on such a huge scale hav- ing ever been attempted before in the United States. The zinc ores of Colorado were formerly shipped abroad to be treated. They came principally from Leadville and the San Juan countrysjand it is only recently that the American Smelt- ing and Reflning Company decided to treat these ores in Colorado. The com- pany has been working in a small way for two or three years to perfect a system for treating these ores. The result has been that they have been buying a great deal of zinc ore in this state and have raised the price to the producer of this mineral about $6 a ton. Although the cost of labor in Colo- rado is three times as great as in Europe, the operation of the zine plant in Pueblo, incorporated as the United States Zine Company and originated by the Guggenheims, has sent up the price of these ores and stimulated their production to what promises to be a magnificent scale. Eight times as many men are required to handle zinc ores as is necessary to properly treat the same tonnage where zine {s not present. The action of the company was recently taken by {ts board of directors who have under way plans for the greater development of the zinc industry of Colorado, It is probable that a zinc smelter will be established in Denver to encourage the production of the northern Clear Creek district ores, which, with the increased price of zine, can be successfully handled. It is said that the increased market for zine ores will stimulate activity in a score of mining camps in the state and have an immediate effect upon employment of labor. The com- pany is satisfied that the ores in Leadville, the San Juan country and various other sections of Colorado are so valuable for their zinc contents that what was formerly such low grade ore that it could not be treated with profit to the miner will now be produced in abundance to the benefit of all concerned. ‘The innovation on the part of the smelter company means more for Colorado than any action that has been taken in the development of its mining industry for many years. A vast sum of money will be spent in the development of the zinc industry and Colorado will become the central supply point of the world for this metal.

Chief of Staff to Handle Cuban Affairs—Taft will Arrange Ferry Service to Havana. Havana.—Gen. Fred Funston will not continue in command of the American forces in Cuba. Governor ‘Taft announced to-night that he and General Funston will leave Havana for the United States Saturday on the battleship Louisiana. With them will go Assistant Secretary of State Bacon and the affairs of Cuba will be left in the hands of Governor Ma. soon and General Franklin Bell. In explaining the change of plans Gov- ernor Taft said: “General Funston was summoned on a hurry call from the Pacific coast becanse he was so well acquainted with many of the insurgent chiefs here, and it was thought he could aid us, us he did greatly, in bringing the men in arms to an agreement. Gen- eral Furston was put temporarily in command of the troops in Cuba, merely as a convenience until General Bell should arrive. General Funston, Mr. Bacon and myself, with Mrs. Tatt and Mrs. Bacon and our secretaries, are returning to our permanent du- ties.” Governor Taft's especial confidence in the chief of the general staff's abil- ity to carry out the program the gov- ernor has initiated resulted in the de- cision to continue him in the island. Many Cubans of the faction to which Mendez Capote and others who organ- ized the Moderate party belonged, were outspoken against General Fun- ston, alleging that he had deserted them in the war to throw off the yoke of Spain. ' Governor Taft did not take cognt- zance of this bitterness, as he was fa: miliar with the circumstances under which General Funston at that time returned to the United States. Fun: ston was taken {l!, and he had the con. sent of General Garcia and other Cu, ban leaders who appreciated the long service he had given their cause. Had the proposal to send three ex peditions to Cuba been carried out, General Funston would have remafaed at Camp Columbia as the commander of a brigade. The close association between Governor Taft and General Bell in the Philippines influenced the provisional governor to make a_per- sonal requisition upon the President that General Bell be placed in com mand in Cuba. The party sailing on the Louisiana will touch at Key West, where Secre: tary Taft desires to stop in connec tion with a right of way across the military reservation for the railroad which is being constructed across the Florida keys, which will practically connect United States and Cuba by # ferry service. ‘Twenty-five marines have been or dered to Sancti Spiritu and Trinidad. At the latter place they will settle the friction between ex-rebels and ex-milt: tiamen who have recently been dis armed. The trouble appears to have been caused by Colonel Glynn of the militia, who is also collector of cus toms. ‘The surrendered arms were stored in the custom house and Glynn rearmed the militia after the depart: ure of the disarmament commission: ers, General Rodriguez, commander of the rural guards, telegraphed Colonel Glynn to disarm these men, but Colo: nel Glynn is reported still to have the guns in his possession and to be dis: posed to make trouble. If these re- ports are confirmed Governor Taft will remove Colonel Glynn. General Brava, commander of the insurgents in that vicinity, maintained good faith with the commission, even taking the re- volvers and machetes from his men. “ages COLORADO ~ «qi.

Martha Owens, the oldest woman in Weld county, died at Greeley on the 4th inst. She was born October 16, 1813, and was nearly ninety-three years of age. For years she wove rag carpets at Greeley, but for five years she had been blind and deaf and helpless as a child. She was the mother of the late Mrs. George Howard and her son-in-law took care of her. Copies of ten books for the blind have been received at the state library in the capitol building in Denver, published in New York raised type. The United States mails will carry these books free of charge, and although the state library is not a circulating library, it will send any of the books to afflicted persons desiring them, for reading. There are 200 blind people in Colorado.

Winston Churchill in an address that he made in Concord recently praised the New Hampshire farmer. "Ours," he said, "is a state fitted above all others for a summer resort. New Hampshire, with its superb climate, its mountains, its lakes and forests, will in a generation or two be one great pleasure ground—a vast park, dotted with beautiful villas, to which will come each summer families from all parts of America. "In anticipation of this many farmers are learning to conduct hotels. They are building cottages for summer visitors. Some of them, too, are taking boarders. "And I am glad to say that the New Hampshire farmer is in a position to take boarders, because, unlike the farmers in other states that I could name, he does not send all his good things to the city. I once boarded at a fine big farm, but the fare was wretched—canned vegetables, condensed milk and so on. "By Jove,' I said one morning at breakfast, as I pushed my egg cup from me, 'these eggs are really not as fresh as those I get in New York.' My farmer host snorted. "That's rank prejudice on your part, Mr. Churchill,' he said. 'It's from New York that all our eggs come.'" LOOSE TEETH Made Sound by Eating Grape-Nuts. Proper food nourishes every part of the body, because Nature selects the different materials from the food we eat, to build bone, nerve, brain, muscle, teeth, etc. All we need is to eat the right kind of food slowly, chewing it well—our digestive organs take it up into the blood and the blood carries it all through the body, to every little nook and corner. If some one would ask you, "Is Grape-Nuts good for loose teeth?" you'd probably say, "No, I don't see how it could be." But a woman in Ontario writes: "For the past two years I have used Grape-Nuts Food with most excellent results. It seems to take the place of medicine in many ways, builds up the nerves and restores the health generally. "A little Grape-Nuts taken before retiring soothes my nerves and gives sound sleep." (Because it relieve irritability of the stomach nerves, being a predigested food.) "Before I used Grape-Nuts my teeth were loose in the gums. They were so bad I was afraid they would some day all fall out. Since I have used Grape-Nuts I have not been bothered any more with loose teeth. "All desire for pastry has disappeared and I have gained in health, weight and happiness since I began to use Grape-Nuts." Name given by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich.

Antwerp and Hamburg are third and fourth, respectively. WHO SKETCH OF THE LIFE And a True Story of How Had Its Birth and How it to be Offered for P This remarkable woman, whose maiden name was Estes, was born in Lynn, Mass., February 9, 1819, coming from a good old Quaker family. For some years she taught school, and became known as a woman of an alert Yours for Health Lydia C. Pinkham and investigating mind, an earnest seeker after knowledge, and above all, possessed of a wonderfully sympa- thetic nature. In 1843 she married Isaac Pinkham, a builder and real estate operator, and their early married life was marked by prosperity and happiness. They had four children, three sons and a daughter. In those good old fashioned days it was common for mothers to make their own home medicines from roots and herbs, nature's own remedies—calling in a physician only in specially urgent cases. By tradition and experience many of them gained a wonderful knowledge of the curative properties of the various roots and herbs. Mrs. Pinkham took a great interest in the study of roots and herbs, their characteristics and power over disease. She maintained that just as nature so bountifully provides in the harvest-fields and orchards vegetable foods of all kinds; so, if we but take the pains to find them, in the roots and herbs of the field there are remedies expressly designed to cure the various ills and weaknesses of the body, and it was her pleasure to search these out, and prepare simple and effective medicines for her own family and friends. Chief of these was a rare combination of the choicest medicinal roots and herbs found best adapted for the cure of the ills and weaknesses peculiar to the female sex, and Lydia E. Pinkham's friends and neighbors learned that her compound relieved and cured and it became quite popular among them. All this so far was done freely, without money and without price, as a labor of love. But in 1873 the financial crisis struck Lynn. Its length and severity were too much for the large real estate interests of the Pinkham family, as this class of business suffered most from fearful depression, so when the Centennial year dawned it found their property swept away. Some other source of income had to be found. At this point Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound was made known to the world. The three sons and the daughter, with their mother, combined forces to NO REST NIGHT OR DAY. With Irritating Skin Humor—Hair Began to Fall Out—Wonderful Result from Cuticura Remedies. "About the latter part of July my whole body began to itch. I did not take much notice of it at first, but it began to get worse all the time, and then I began to get uneasy and tried all kinds of baths and other remedies that were recommended for skin humors; but I became worse all the time. My hair began to fall out and my scalp itched all the time. Especially at night, just as soon as I would get in bed and get warm, my whole body would begin to itch and my finger nails would keep it irritated, and it was not long before I could not rest night or day. A friend asked me to try the Cuticura Remedies, and I did, and the first application helped me wonderfully. For about four weeks I would take a hot bath every night and then apply the Cuticura Ointment to my whole body; and I kept getting better, and by the time I used four boxes of Cuticura I was entirely cured, and my hair stopped falling out. D. E. Blankenship, 319 N. Del. St., Indianapolis, Ind., Oct. 27, 1905." Remarkable Double Wedding. A remarkable double wedding has been celebrated in a Viennese church. A manufacturer named Muller married a widow, while at the same time his son married the widow's daughter. Thus the father becomes the father-in-law of his own son, and the mother also the mother-in-law of her daughter.

PINKHAM the Vegetable Compound the "Panic of '73" Caused public Sale in Drug Stores. restore the family fortune. They argued that the medicine which was so good for their woman friends and neighbors was equally good for the women of the whole world. The Pinkham's had no money, and little credit. Their first laboratory was the kitchen, where roots and herbs were steeped on the stove, gradually filling a gross of bottles. Then came the question of selling it, for always before they had given it away freely. They hired a job printer to run off some pamphlets setting forth the merits of the medicine, now called Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, and these were distributed by the Pinkham sons in Boston, New York, and Brooklyn. The wonderful curative properties of the medicine were, to a great extent, self-advertising, for whoever used it recommended it to others, and the demand gradually increased. In 1877, by combined efforts the family had saved enough money to commence newspaper advertising and from that time the growth and success of the enterprise were assured, until today Lydia E. Pinkham and her Vegetable Compound have become household words everywhere, and many tons of roots and herbs are used annually in its manufacture. Lydia E. Pinkham herself did not live to see the great success of this work. She passed to her reward years ago, but not till she had provided means for continuing her work as effectively as she could have done it herself. During her long and eventful experience she was ever methodical in her work and she was always careful to preserve a record of every case that came to her attention. The case of every sick woman who applied to her for advice—and there were thousands—received careful study, and the details, including symptoms, treatment and results were recorded for future reference, and to-day records, together with hundreds of thousands made since, are available to sick women the world over, and represent a vast collaboration of information regarding the treatment of woman's ills, which for authenticity and accuracy can hardly be equaled in any library in the world. With Lydia E. Pinkham worked her daughter-in-law, the present Mrs. Pinkham. She was carefully instructed in all her hard-won knowledge, and for years she assisted her in her vast correspondence. To her hands naturally fell the direction of the work when its originator passed away. For nearly twenty-five years she has continued it, and nothing in the work shows when the first Lydia E. Pinkham dropped her pen, and the present Mrs. Pinkham, now the mother of a large family, took it up. With women assistants, some as capable as herself, the present Mrs. Pinkham continues this great work, and probably from the office of no other person have so many women been advised to regain health. Sick women, this advice is "Yours for Health" freely given if you only write to ask for it. Such is the history of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound; made from simple roots and herbs; the one great medicine for women's ailments, and the fitting monument to the noble woman whose name it bears. --- A Vegetable Preparation for Assimilating the Food and Regulating the Stonachies and Bowels of Promotes Digestion, Cheerfulness and Rest.

The Popularity of the Tailor-Made Gown The Popularity of the Tailor-Made Gown 9 Tailor-Mades—One a Corsetlet Skirt with Bolero Fastened Together with Straps, and the Other a Mantle of Fine Cream-Colored Face Cloth. Women's Waists for Winter Wear Women's Waists for Winter Wear At the present moment the tailor-made gowns loom large on the horizon of the fashionable woman's sky, and some of the newest models are charming. I have been specially captivated with the three-quarter length Louis XVII coats, which will be so very fashionable this coming winter. They are eminently becoming to well-set up figures, and they have a careless grace which is all their own. These coats are shaped to the figure, yet they give the impression of looseness; they are rarely worn fastened in any way in front, and they fit after the manner of a driving glove; moulded to the figure, and yet—loose. One of the new models which won my unqualified approval was composed of chiffon-cloth in pastel pink—a dull shade which had in it a touch of mauve as well as salmon. The round skirt cleared the ground and was set in at pleats—the latter being neatly stitched down from waist to hips; the Tailor-Mades—One a Corsetlet Ski Straps, and the Other a Mantle of Fin three-quarter coat in Louis XVII. style, had some handsome silk embroideries on the pockets and on the large cuffs, and the lining was of black and white taffetas in narrow stripes. The embroideries were worked in silks which matched exactly the cloth and the whole effect was most original and attractive. Another walking gown of the same genre was made of pearl gray serge, with elaborate machine stitchings on the round skirt and on the cuffs and pockets of the coat; in this case the coat was lined with the new gray-blue satin and there were some lovely buttons, in Art Nouveau style, of gray-blue enamel and dull silver. Round skirts will be more worn than ever this autumn—especially with three-quarter coats; it would seem as if these important looking garments ought to be accompanied by a trained skirt; but no, they look exceedingly smart and trim with a well- Waists and blouses for fall and winter wear will be trimmed with lace and handwork as have the waists of lighter material for summer wear. Cashmere voile with baby Irish all S394C118 Glace Silk Blouse. over and silk are combined in one development of dressy waist, while French henrietta with hand embroidery are utilized in others. All soft woolens and silks are adaptable for the blouse waist, and the short sleeves will be quite as much worn as during the summer. An effective elaboration may be found in French velling with Irish and Val lace, silk poplin with cut round skirt which clears the ground. Some exquisite tea gowns which I saw were made of the cobweb muslin, with lavish incrustations of Brussels point de gaze and with raised embroidery work in fine white threads. The gowns were cut en princesse, and had a quantity of lace arranged in soft frills on the bodice and elbow sleeves. Crossed over the breast and tied behind in a big "Mousmee" bow were lengths of crepe de Chine, embroidered and fringed with silver! For tea-gowns and for dinner dresses of a somewhat picturesque order the "Mousmee" sash will be a leading feature this autumn; to very slender figures it is eminently becoming, but it is not for the many. With regard to the hats for autumn wear, it is difficult to speak. They are for the greater part so wonderful and yet so simple. The most popular mode of the moment is the cloche brim surmounted by an immense crown of art with Bolero Fastened Together with a Cream-Colored Face Cloth. taffetas; round this crown a length of ribbon is twisted and tied in a large bow at the left side, towards the front, and the hat is raised on an amazingly high bandeau—the latter covered with loops of ribbon. With these hats the hair is worn rather low on the top of the head and arranged in curls at the back in Greek style; the high bandeau in this way rests right on the head and the hat is tilted at the desired angle. Quite the best of the autumn hats so far are guiltless of feathers or even ospreys; they depend for charm on an immensely full gathered crown and on the coquettish angle at which they are worn. In felt and velvet I fancy these hats will look a trifle heavy, but I saw last week two models which had the brims covered with the finest silk beaver, the crowns made of thick taffetas and the ribbons on the bandeau of velvet—with several ends falling just behind the ears. repousse lace, eyelet needlework and fancy galloon, and also in crepe de Chine with hand embroidery. Wide and narrow tucks are being shown on the up-to-date shirt waists. One effective method of treatment is a group of fine tucks taken up at each side of the back turn from the center and continued to the waist line. Two similar groups are arranged at the front, where wider ones are also made, the first two extending to the lower edge while the others terminate at yoke depth, allowing the fullness to remain free over the bust. When blouses are made of glace silk the best effect is obtained when they are made plain. In our illustration we show a waist made of cream glace, which is of the simplest possible pattern fastened at the back. The trimming consists of a box-pleat up the center of the front and a square cut piece at the neck. Both these are edged with silk frills headed by narrow insertion. The sleeves are gathered into the armhole, and below the elbow into a band that is finished by a frill. The fastening is down the back. As a becoming hat for this shirt waist a Tuscan hat trimmed with ribbon and an osprey plume is effective. The materials required for the blouse are four yards of silk 22 inches wide and three yards of frilling. Advancement of the South. The capital invested in manufacturing in seven southern states—Alabama, Arkansas, Georgia, Louisiana, Kentucky, Tennessee and Texas—was $117,000,000 20 years ago. Now, according to the census of manufactures, 1905, it is $803,000,000, an increase of $686,000,000. The yearly manufacturing product of these seven states in 1880 was $221,000,000; in 1905 it was $948,000,000, an increase of $727,000,000. Company 1900 Y.M.C.
