COLO The Rapid Growth of h will be a Mecca for Classes of Ind How many of the present generation ever seriously speculate concerning the changes likely to come to Colorado in the next decade. In order to get some idea of the possibility and growth of this state in the future you must think and know something of its past and present history. The year that has just closed has marked one of the greatest epochs of its magnificent growth. New Railroads, new mines, new irrigation plans, dry farming, new plants new factories and industries and new settlements have all contributed to its expansion. The Colorado STATESMAN wishes to contribute a few items to its readers on the subject of this new development taking place within our borders and to again ask its readers to keep an eye open to the main chance that lies before them to make themselves active participants in the upbuilding of this state. With the new railroad law and rate bill a better show will be given to all class of shippers. Industries once protected by rebate must now stand on an even plane with small shippers, this is the poor mans opportunity. A stereoscopic picture of our state growth along all lines is seen in the railroad earnings for the past year which show a net increase of nearly four millions of dollars. The taxes have also increased in propositions, this shows the rise of land values. The mines increased their total output nearly ten millions. New coal beds have been opened in Routt Co., which would supply the state for nearly a hundred years. Eugene H. Grubb, an authority on agricultural matters and one of the foremost writers in the country, recently contributed an article to the Live Stock World of Chicago. He took for his subject, "The growing future of Colorado agriculture" and the article fairly bristles with bright things that would make any ambitious man's nerves fairly dance with joy at the opportunity held out for any industrious person. He contends why live stock must always be so important an interest in Colorado is the fact that the greatest irrigated crop of alfalfa. Two to four crops of this can be harvested annually and combined with corn, barley and other grains, the most perfect ration for producing the choicest ```markdown ``` State Historical and N H Society, Denver, Colo SAVED BY PATRIC COLORA RADO. The State Indicate that it Homeseekers and allustrious People. meats in the world is found. The crops seldom fail anywhere in the state and no failures are ever recorded on the irrigated ranches. The Eastern farmer must figure on at least one out of every five crops as a failure. In Colorado the irrigation farmer can depend on his harvest as certainly as he puts in his seed. This in itself is certain to make Colorado a garden spot of the world. The day of the cow boy and cattle baron has passed and to-day the new era of the man with the hoe and barbed wire fence is at hand. He need not be a big ranchman either. There is opportunity for the man of small beginning and small means as well as large interests. The dairy business of the state is also growing at a rapid rate. The fact that Colorado butter and cheese commands an average price to the farmer of six cents higher than the average price paid elsewhere over the United States is a significant fact. The product of the Colorado dairy will stand the most expert test for purity and healthfulness. Colorado's educational affairs is in the best condition. Miss Catherine L. Craig, State Superintendent of Public instruction has notified the auditor's office that the apportionment of the public school fund has just been completed. The total amount is $119,662.34. This amount is distributed throughout the counties of the state in proportion to the school population. So that every boy and girl in Colorado has a fair and equal chance for the best kind of an education. What Colorado wants is more people. More colored people can find homes and employment here than in any other state in the Union and the best way to induce them to come is to let them know the splendid opportunities that are offered them here not only in the cities but in the farming, mining and agricultural districts. Living thousands of miles away they know comparatively little about the state, yet they would be thankful for trustworthy information. They would be appreciative of you sending them a copy of the Colorado STATESMAN, so full of just the information they would like to know. You cannot stop to write each one a personal letter besides you may not have the fact and Continued to fourth page. --- DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, JANUARY 19, 1907. In selecting a United States senator for Colorado the Sixteenth General Assembly met in their separate houses last Tuesday and gave Simon Guggenheim the majority vote. Wednesday the two branches of the Assembly met in one body and concurred in his selection and nomination—so that it is Senator Guggenheim now, and will be for the next six years unless some unforeseen Providence, accident or death should defeat the will of the majority of the people of the Centennial State. The progress of events have gone on so smoothly in Republican ranks as to attract no opposition except from the minority party. They have attempted to forestall the selection of the majority choice, but their opposition was so successfully defeated at the polls that they put but little barrier in the way of Mr. Guggenheim's success at the time of his selection by the joint assembly. How different all of this was from six years ago, then there was a struggle and upheaval, the state was turned into a political bedlam, and armed forces were stationed in different rooms of the capitol building. All of these conditions were changed this week. Out of the tumult of the last dozen or fifteen years peace has been evolved through the Republican party. Simon Guggenheim has been a factor in all this evolutionary process. In his selection and indorsement there was no excitement, nor quarrel, no trading, no factionalism, no treachery; the assembly halls were open to the public—just an orderly proceeding by business men, the dominant party working in harmony, the minority crushed by the weight of prosperity and good will. If the beautiful and docile dove of peace could have been metamorphosed the State capitol last Tuesday would have resembled Trinity church. Presto change has been written on the banner of Republicanism in Colorado. Four years ago the party was divided. It was intent on internecene warfare. The party needed to be saved from itself. A halt was called and the result was that the party went to the polls last November united and determined. They won a signal victory and the Legislature at this time is ready for business with no threats of blood-shed, rumors of pitched battles or questions of sectionalism or predominance. Profound peace, fealty, harmony and good feeling prevails everywhere. Now is the time to give the reward for this success and the Assembly hardly without a word lays the laurel of victory on the brow of one Simon Guggenheim. That he is worthy none doubt. That he is the kind of man that the country needs many will affirm. In any list of useful men to the state, or indispensable ones to the Nation, Simon Guggenheim's name would be near the top. He possesses those qualities of which all Americans are proud. It is therefore, not surprising that Mr. Guggenheim should go to the United States Senate from Colorado with the friendship and respect and the largest complimentary vote tendered to any senator by the Colorado Legislature for years. The Colorado Statesman joins with its many readers who are interested in public affairs in tending to Senator Guggenheim our compliments and good wishes for a long and successful career in national affairs and promise to send him in the near future a Republican colleague to assist him in holding up at the capital in Washington the grand principles of the Republican party. Colorado is once more in line for Republican honor and principles and Republican appointments. The colored people's interest in the state will be represented by a Republican senator. DOING COMMON THINGS DOING COMMON THINGS In an Uncommon way. By Robert Russa Moton in Colored American Magazine. People often marvel at the wonderful growth in power and proficiency of the Tuskegee Normal and Industrial Institute when its illustrious principal is obliged to spend so much of his time away from the institution. They wonder if Tuskegee does not seriously suffer by the lack of constant personal supervision of Dr. Washington. These are perfectly natural questions no doubt, and while the school must in the very nature of things feel the absence of its principal, it does not suffer as much as a casual observation would seem to indicate. Tuskegee Institute is so thoroughly interwoven with the life of its founder it is impossible to consider the school apart from its principal. In considering Tuskegee then one must remember that this school is very well organized; that Dr. Washington has gathered about him as choice a corps of workers as the race has produced. The superintendents of all the departments are experts in their line, and in loyal co-operation, they are all earnestly endeavoring to reach the highest ideal obtainable by an institution so unique and so far-reaching in its effects upon the world in general and the Negro in particular. The ideals of Tuskegee are the ideals of its founder. Indeed it is a concrete actualization of the possibilities of the Negro along lines of practical and technical education. That a Negro could in an old church, upon poor land in a poor community build in twenty five years an institution of such magnificent proportions and doing such a splendid work, was forty years ago almost unthought of. When away from Tuskegee, as he is so often obliged to be, Dr. Washington, through his very efficient executive secretary, Mr. Emmett J. Scott, is by a system all their own, kept informed daily on every phase of the work of the school. When at the school he is continually on the go, early and late, in season and out. On a visit to Tuskegee I remember coming out of his house very quietly at 5 o'clock one morning, for fear of waking any one. I knew Dr. Washington had been holding a council meeting quite late into the night before. Coming from Hampton, I wanted to see how the students got out in the morning—the stable boys and milkers, cooks and bakers. I went to the bakery—it was not yet day—and to my surprise I found Dr Washington observing the work of the bakers, questioning as to the amount of flour used and caution NO. 17. ing them against waste, etc. I then went over to the stable and found that he had already been there and had left an order for a horse to be saddled. When he came to his breakfast at 7 o'clock he had ridden over much of the large farm and had looked over the brick yard. When Dr. Washington advises people to do the common things in an uncommon way, he is advising them to do what he is constantly doing in a very remarkable way. I was much interested in the interest he took in his fowls turkeys, pea fowls, chickens; his looking after the setting hens, the number of eggs she could keep warm, etc. I remember also with what delight he was greeted by some pigs, Jersey Reds he said they were. They seemed, as did also the fowls, to recognize his voice. I observed his interest in the most insignificant shrub in his yard. In other words one is struck by the great contrast between the Washington delivering an address in New York at the Carl Shurz memorial meeting and the Washington down at Tuskegee feeding chickens and pigs. I drove with him for some miles out from Tuskegee. I noticed he had a great many questions to ask almost every old colored man he met, and we met many drawn by a mule or an ox and in vehicles in all stages of decay. He wanted to know about their cotton and corn crops. He asked after the health of the children, the number of hogs they had—indeed everything that touched the lives of those old colored people—his people—appealed to him. He took much more time with a Negro and his mule than he did with a prominent white banker of the town of Tuskegee. I contrasted the Washington at Carnegie Hall shaking hands and receiving the congratulations from former President Cleveland and many other distinguished gentlemen, and the Washington shaking hands and advising the poor, ignorant, struggling black farmer of Alabama. The two pictures are striking. Mr. Cleveland, the heir to all that opportunity can give, of ancestry, of education, of environment, of culture, of wealth, of honor, of fame, but withal glad to shake hands with and do honor to Booker Washington. On the other hand the poor Negro, disinherited as it were by a land that enslaved him, lynched by the man whose home he protected, kicked by a nation whose flag he defended,—yet struggling upwards opposition and oppression and receiving from his white brother a stone when he asks only for a fair and equal chance. Yet he, too, can shake hands with Booker Washington and is assured of a more cordial greeting even than an ex-President of the United States. (Continued to 4th page) THE IDEAL DRUG STORE.

Denver, Colorado. Denver, Colorado. JOSEPH SOBOL DENVER, Colorado HNSON, ER IN , Hay, Feed. 621 Eighteenth St. LEGISLATIVE NEWS AND GOSSIP Mr. Kiel, in the House, has introduced a bill prohibiting the use of gas, oil or other inflammable substances for the lighting of any cars or trains used upon any railroads within the state for the transportation of passengers. The pure food bill introduced by Representative Kelly in the House is drawn in conformity with the national law covering the same subject. It has been drafted with great care, in order that all legitimate enterprises may not suffer from its operations. Senator Tom Ehrhart of Chaffee county, who is in Denver attending to his duties in the Legislature, has entered a steer in the Western Stock Show, which opens January 19th-26th, that will attract much attention. The steer is being fattened entirely on peas, which grow to perfection in Senator Ehrhart's locality. Morris Lehman of Telluride, has been reappointed chief clerk of the insurance department by State Auditor Statler. He has been in the department during the past two years and did very efficient work under Deputy Commissioner Rittenhouse. Miss Bessie Budrow has been appointed stenographer of the department. Representative Dolph has presented a bill to amend the law against the docking of horses' tails. The amendment is to strike out that provision against the importation of horses having tails already docked. Some question has always been raised regarding the constitutionality of that portion of the bill, though the rightfulness of the provision against docking tails has never been disputed. Representative Lehritter has introduced a bill to keep the game commissioner from placing trout fry in any stream controlled by any but the state. The object is to keep the public fish out of those streams that are on private property, the owners of which decline to permit fishermen on their land. It is also aimed at those associations that have acquired fishing rights from source to mouth of the best trout streams. A simple little title line on a bill introduced by Mr. Cannon has its work in store for those men arrested on charges of non-support. The bill title reads, "Providing for the employment of prisoners in jails," and its effect is that men imprisoned for non-support will be, along with others, furnished eight hours' work each day. But the one class of men is to get 50 cents a day, the money to be paid to the families in need of the recalcitrant's services. A movement is on foot to have the salaries of the justices of the Supreme Court increased from $5,000 to $7,500 per annum. The cost of living affects the judiciary, too. Judges must live. A bill will be introduced for the purpose of raising the salaries. It is held that under the new conditions the salaries are not large enough and fall short of almost every other state, and that under the present conditions, with living expenses high, the time has come to raise them. Some of the Denver druggists are alarmed regarding the effect of the pure food bill which is making such rapid progress through the House. At a meeting held on Saturday night it was determined to have it amended if possible. The assertion is made that it creates a "doctor's trust" and that under it no drug or medicine could be sold without a physician's prescription. Owners and dealers in proprietary medicines are also on the anxious seat. Those responsible for the measure insist that honest druggists and dealers need have no fear, that all that is sought is a "square deal" to the consumer in drugs, liquors and solids. Among the bills introduced in the Senate is one by Senator Alexander to repeal the present State Board of Arbitration and create a Court of Arbitration differently organized. Senator Alexander says the present board is useless and has never acted in any labor difficulty. He says it costs the state $2,000 and accomplishes nothing. Senator De La Vergne, who was a member of the board until recently, says it is a dead letter. He favors the bill repealing it. The Alexander bill provides for an arbitrary court of five men, one to be appointed by the governor, one by the employer, one of the employees, and the other two to be elected by the first three. This bill was introduced two years ago, but failed to carry. Representative Fetzer has presented a bill aimed at all kinds of hazing, but having particular reference to the practice in schools and colleges. Under the bill hazing is made a misdeanor, punishable by a fine of up to $50. But the measure goes much further, making college faculties responsible for suppression of such acts. Students convicted, by trial, either in the public courts or by college faculties, must be suspended or expelled, according to the grade of the offense. Its object is to class hazing where it belongs, among the contemptible practices of the mean and brutal. But college students alone are not included in the penalties to be enforced. Any similar acts of taking advantage of the weak, helpless or those rendered helpless may be punished just as in cases of college pranks. A bill will be introduced into the present session of the Legislature limiting to three years after death of maker the time when wills may be presented for probate. This was the conclusion reached yesterday at the meeting of the State County Judges' Association in Denver. A number of amendments to the probate law were discussed, the one placing a statute of limitations upon wills being the most important. The present inheritance tax law was also found to need amendment in a number of particulars, in order to facilitate the collection of the tax. Many of the judges complained that the attorney general did not appear to represent the state, and that the law should be strengthened so as to give the state better opportunities to collect. The present school law was also discussed and found to need revision. Secretary of State Timothy O'Connor has announced the appointment of Edwin Mitchell of Central City, as chief clerk in his office. Mr. Mitchell has been serving in this capacity during the term of James Cowie, former secretary of state. It is claimed that the machine will pay for itself in a few elections. The moment the polls close the vote is ready to be recorded as with an adding machine and much time is saved in this manner. Election officials now charge two days to the county; with the machine one day would suffice. The precincts would be enlarged and in Denver the number reduced from 200 to 100. Provision is made in the statute that a precinct where the voting machine is in use must have at least 600 voters. One of the last official acts of Governor McDonald was the appointment of a commission of three to pass upon voting machines that may be submitted to the state under the constitutional amendment and statute dealing with that subject passed two years ago. He named Frank C. Goff, engineer to the board of education; Albion K. Vickery, county clerk, and John B. Hunter, engineer of the board of public works. They are all well known citizens. Their official title is "state board of voting machine commissioners." They are appointed for five years and their fees come from the owners of voting machines who submit their product for examination as to their availability. Their duties are to pass on the efficiency, accuracy, etc., of any machine submitted. Machines that pass scrutiny can enter competition for adoption as the official machine or official machines as the case may be. Under the law now in effect each county can choose its standard, but it must come from one of those approved by the commission. Among the bills that have been presented to the Legislature, is one in each house to correct and amend the criminal law, so that the people may have the right of appeal when a district judge has decided that a certain criminal statute is unconstitutional. In the past such cases, when once decided against the people, have set a precedent in that court which nothing could disturb. The prisoner has always had the right of appeal when a point was lost, but the rights of the people, or the public prosecutor, have ceased when the decision resulted in the dismissing of the prisoner. The idea of the proposed law is to enable the prosecutor to take appeal on the point of law. Nothing that a higher court would decide would have any effect upon the case, which would have been already decided in favor of the accused, but it would enable the higher court to review the decision to decide whether it should be accepted by all courts. Should the Supreme Court decide that the lower court had erred, convictions might then be again tried for in similar cases under the law in question. A bill has been introduced in the Senate by Senator W. W. Booth to have the Colorado Prison Association made a bureau of parole supervision for prisoners from the state penitentiary and reformatory—subject to the final authority of the wardens of these respective institutions. The same bill has also been introduced in the House by Representative Georgia S. Reda. During the last three years the Colorado Prison Association has been actively engaged in assisting prisoners discharged from jails and from the penitentiary and reformatory. The records show about eighty cases in 1904, 106 cases in 1905 and 154 cases in 1906. In only a few instances have these persons so alided had to be returned to prison for violating their paroles or for new crimes. Hitherto this work has been maintained by the private benefactions of generous-hearted citizens in all parts of Colorado, the state giving its endorsement by furnishing office room and telephone service at the state capitol. For the last year or two there has been a feeling among those whose gifts have sustained the work that the state ought, at this General Assembly, to set the Colorado Prison Association apart with adequate appropriation, to continue its work and enlarge its usefulness. And it is in response to this sentiment that the bill has been introduced. No Pay for State Boards. Bills have been prepared and will be introduced into the Legislature at once placing all state boards on the same level, that is to say, making them honorary boards without pay, as recommended in Governor Buchtel's message; and providing that members of these boards shall be allowed their actual traveling expenses and no more. Their advocates say that these measures will become a law without question. The saving, according to their views, will not be so very great; that is not the aim, but the material to draw from will be better. Those who will accept positions will do so as an act of citizenship free from any selfish motive and their conduct will be so considered by the public. Heretofore there has been a suspicion that membership on some of the boards was reserved for professional politicians anxious to make an easy living, and for that reason the best citizens did not care to accept positions on these boards. The aim in the proposed legislation is to get the very best men and women to serve on the state boards in the knowledge that they receive nothing directly or indirectly for their services. The following boards now serve without pay: Board of agriculture, board of charities and corrections, board of health, board of medical examiners, board of pharmacy, board of pardons, board of dental examiners, School for the Deaf and Blind, Home for Dependent Children, Industrial School for Girls, Normal school trustees, School of Mines trustees, also state geologist. The secretaries in most instances receive salaries. Boards that have salaries or per diems include the lunacy board, Industrial School for Boys, penitentiary commissioners. To Represent Colorado in the United States Senate. Denver.—By a vote of more than two-thirds of all the full Sixteenth General Assembly—68 out of 100—Simon Guggenheim, the Republican party's only candidate, was chosen Tuesday as the next United States senator from Colorado. The result of the votes for senator in House and Senate was as follows: House. Senate. Total. Simon Guggenheim. 46 22 68 Charles S. Thomas... 15 12 27 Frank C. Goudy ... 4 ... 4 O. M. Kem of Montrose, S. S. Bellesfield of Pueblo and W. B. Ebbert of Otero, Democrats, changed their vote before the result was announced from Thomas to Goudy, out of compliment to Representative Vincent. Senator Morton Alexander, the only Republican in the upper house who was opposed to Guggenheim, was absent on account of illness. His vote would have been cast for ex-Governor Jesse F. McDonald. In nominating Mr. Guggenheim in the Senate, Senator Bohn of Leadville, representing the Sixth district, said: "He will help our President, encourage honor and purity in all public affairs; he will be true to the cardinal principles of the Republican party. He will never neglect the local interests of Colorado. He will be fully alive to the mineral and sugar industries of our state and its protection. He will influence and encourage capital to come here and build up enterprises. He has invested heavily in the construction of sugar refineries within our borders and he has caused others to do so. "He will stimulate with his magic hand, every industry, and with his wonderful financial influence he will attract the attention of large investors." In the House Representative Harry E. Kelly of Denver, in nominating Mr. Guggenheim, said: "At this time we need, more than we have ever needed in the past, a man whose mind is given up to the development of the industry and commerce of this state, and who will discontinue the populistic assaults that have been made within the past few years upon our industry and our commerce. "A United States senator should be a man of generosity and charity. At the foot of yonder mountains he has erected his monument to the science upon which one of our chief industries most depends. Within the confines of this capital city he has placed his generous testimonial to the poor victims of one of the worst plagues to which flesh is heir. "I desire to say that my candidate belongs to the progressive element of the Republican party and that he will ally himself with the most progressive element of the Republican party in the United States Senate and will always be found with the President of the United States supporting every measure designed for the interests of liberty, freedom and progress in this country. I pledge it to you." Representative Mirle D. Vincent (Republican) of Paonia, nominated Frank C. Goudy, protesting that the dominant faction of the party had sold the senatorship to Mr. Guggenheim He said: "This fight will not end here; it will not cease in Washington. If I retain my health—and it is in pretty good condition now—this fight will be carried into every county, city and hamlet of the state until the machine now in control of the party is overthrown by the people." Senator Tully Scott (Democrat) placed in nomination ex-Governor Charles S. Thomas, charging the Republican party with the sale of the office and saying: "In contrast and in honor to the state, I nominate a citizen of Colorado and a statesman of the nation, a lawyer whose fame is not bounded by the continent; devoted to the constitution as Webster and equally able in pounding it, with all the flery eloquence of Clay in favor of liberty and law; an ideal senator, typical of the old school, in whose election both state and nation would find pride, whose open record will ever live as his eulogy in the minds and hearts of his countrymen, and who stands for the equality of all men before the law, whether bearing the scepter or the shepherd's crook; I nominate the Honorable Charles S. Thomas." Mr. O'Connell nominated Charles S Thomas in the House. There were numerous seconds in both houses to the nominations of Mr. Guggenheim and Mr. Thomas. Model Ranch Purchase. Canon City—Messrs. Turnbull and Lindenberger of this city, associated with J. B. Farrarer, John Morey, James G. Duncan, of the Morey Mercantile Company of Denver, and F. W. Standart of Denver, have purchased sixty acres of alfalfa land on Grand View avenue, east of here, where they will establish a model fruit and vegetable ranch. The entire tract will be planted to apple and cherry trees, and the space between the rows will be devoted to vegetables. James Turnbull of the same company, has negotiated for a large tract of land embracing nearly all of the ranches in Garden park, on Four Mile creek, for about $100,000. The ranches carry with them valuable water rights, and it is reported that a large area will be devoted to sugar beets, the erection of a sugar factory at this place being part of the plan. Prominent Englishman Killed. London.—Right Hon. Sir James Ferguson, reported killed at Kingston, was a man of much prominence. He served in the Crimean campaign with the Grenadier guards and was present at the battles of Alma and Inkerman, where he was wounded, and the siege of Sabastopol. He was several times a member of the House of Commons. He was under secretary of state for India and the home department in Lord Derby's third and in Mr. Disraeli's first administration. He was made governor of South Australia in 1868, governor of New Zealand in 1873 and governor of Bombay in 1885. LIEUTENANT BOWMAN. IN FORTY-EIGHT HOURS PE-RU-NA CURED HIM. Chas. W.

"I have been particularly benefited by its use for colds in the head and throat. I have been able to fully cure myself of a most severe attack in forty-eight hours by its use according to directions. I use it as a preventive whenever threatened with an attack. "Members of my family also use it for like ailments. We are recommending it to our friends." —Chas. W. Bowman.

The art of starching was not introduced into England until the ingenuity of Dutch women in starching ruffs induced Queen Elizabeth to turn to them when she took to wearing cambric and linen cuffs. In 1564 Mistress Dinghein von den Plasse, the refugee daughter of a Flemish knight, cama with her husband to London, according to an old writer, and set up an establishment for starching, where she not only plied her trade, but instructed English classes in her art.

THE FIRST TWINGE Of Rheumatism Calls for Dr. Williams $ ^{a} $ Pink Pills If You Would Be Easily Cured. Mr. Frank Little, a well known citizen of Portland, Ionia Co., Mich., was cured of a severe case of rheumatism by Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. In speaking about it recently, he said: "My body was run down and in no condition to withstand disease and about five years ago I began to feel rheumatic pains in my arms and across my back. My arms and legs grew numb and the rheumatism seemed to settle in every joint so that I could hardly move, while my arms were useless at times. I was unable to sleep or rest well and my heart pained me so terribly I could hardly stand it. My stomach became sour and bloated after eating and this grew so bad that I had inflammation of the stomach. I was extremely nervous and could not bear the least noise or excitement. One whole side of my body became paralyzed. "As I said before, I had been suffering about five years and seemed to be able to get no relief from my doctors, when a friend here in Portland told me how Dr. Williams' Pink Pills had cured him of neuralgia in the face, even after the pain had drawn it to one side. I decided to try the pills and began to see some improvement soon after using them. This encouraged me to keep on until I was entirely cured. I have never had a return of the rheumatism or of the paralysis. The pills are for sale by all druggists or sent, postpaid, on receipt of price, 50 cents per box, six boxes $2.50, by the Dr. Williams Medicine Company, Schenectady, N. Y.

Every week colored men and women from every part of the United States write to this office inquiring about business conditions in Denver or Colorado. It ought to be our chief aim to invite enterprising colored people with brains, training, experience, energy and capital to Colorado. And it will be the purpose of this business column to point out these advantages and opportunities that the West affords for such enterprises. Besides this such a column would afford opportunity for the paper to speak of things that the masses of our people ought to know about business affairs.

The Colorado Statesman is for Colorado, first, last and all the time. OUR NEW SENATOR The die is cast. Simon Guggen from Colorado. The first Republican Tuesday was the day that changed Colorado when a dyed-in-the-wool Patterson, the semi-populist and Dixie to serve his country, he puts his "If I go to the Senate it will be a pany—or any other interest. I will citizen—to represent the people or is permitted to every man, even the serve my country." There is no doubt about this story a valuable acquisition to the ranks; life—thirty-nine years old, rich eration, a successful business man who executive positions and related to a man of fine heart as evidenced by his people's needs and having a desire be a credit to his state and nation. The Colorado Statesman extent Senator Guggenheim and wishes forington as you have made in Colorado ship as you have made in business.

The press bureau of the writer and Thompson's news letter vocate are starts in this direction bureaus of the class described woulding results to the race. Simon Guggenheim is now the first Republican from this city that changed the tide in the red-in-the-wool Republican swing populist and Democrat. Mr. Dietry, he puts his idea in the fist Senate it will not be to repress interest. I will go as Simon at the people of Colorado. As a man, even the wealthiest, and not about this statement and the aim to the ranks of public servants old, rich enough to be a business man with talents trained and related to the management evidenced by his many charities having a desire to serve, state and nation. Statesman extends you the good and wishes for you as brilliant made in Colorado, and as fine a life in business. POLICICITY AND CORRESPONDENCE In the things The Colorado State New Year is a bureau of colonies to take note of all happen national, and reply to the that Washington and in each state of the people why should not for the Negro.

The die is east. Simon Guggenheim is now United States senator from Colorado. The first Republican from this state for some years. Tuesday was the day that changed the tide in the national politics of Colorado when a dyed-in-the-wool Republican swapped places with Mr. Patterson, the semi-populist and Democrat. Mr. Guggenheim has a desire to serve his country, he puts his idea in the following words: "If I go to the Senate it will not be to represent the smelting company—or any other interest. I will go as Simon Guggenheim, plain citizen—to represent the people of Colorado. An honorable ambition is permitted to every man, even the wealthiest, and it is my ambition to serve my country." There is no doubt about this statement and therefore he ought to be a valuable acquisition to the ranks of public servants. In the prime of life—thirty-nine years old, rich enough to be above pecuniary temptation, a successful business man with talents trained and developed in executive positions and related to the management of large affairs. A man of fine heart as evidenced by his many charities, understanding the people's needs and having a desire to serve, the new senator will be a credit to his state and nation. The Colorado Statesman extends you the good wishes of its readers Senator Guggenheim and wishes for you as brilliant a career in Washington as you have made in Colorado, and as fine a record in statesmanship as you have made in business. BUREAU OF PUBLICITY AND CORRESPONDENCE NEEDED Among some of the things The Colorado Statesman would like to call attention to for the New Year is a bureau of correspondence in every city of the United States to take note of all happenings affecting the Negro, both local and national, and reply to the same. If it is found good to keep a lobby at Washington and in each state to look after legislation in the interest of the people why should not a bureau of correspondence be effective for the Negro. If thousands of letters from all over the United States had the effect of softening the effect of President Roosevelt's order discharging the colored soldiers, why should not four or five hundred letters from the same source put back-bone in Senators Foraker and Penrose who are urging justice for these men. Why should not Senators Lodge and Morgan, who are taking the initiative in the Congo Free State atrocities be complimented. For instance, Senator Guggenheim ought to be encouraged and General Palmer, who lies near to death in Colorado Springs, both good friends to the Negro, ought to be sympathized with. Such a bureau ought to be supported by public contributions, ought to have neat stationery and a good correspondent, whose duty it would be to answer current articles in magazines and newspapers, complimenting the good things said and done for the race and condemning the errors, and criticising and condemning the wrong. Such a bureau could thank and commend the editors, public men, business concerns and ministers of the gospel who preach and practice the doctrine of fair play for the Negro and serve warning to those who oppose and wrong us that we condemn the insult. Ten millions of Negroes awakened and active is a giant strength and no one wants to go up against it if he is to hear from it and feel it against him, but ten millions is as nothing if they are not to be heard from or felt in retaliation. As the New Year comes on and we are looking for effective methods of race improvement, let Colorado be the first to start this new movement. The press bureau of which Bruce Grit or Twister is the writer and Thompson's news letter in the Freeman and Charleston Advocate are starts in this direction, but personal letters sent out by bureaus of the class described would do indefinitely more good in bringing results to the race.

CORRESPONDENCE NEEDED The Colorado Statesman would like to be a bureau of correspondence in every note of all happenings affecting the reply to the same. If it is found and in each state to look after legis. why should not a bureau of corredo. If thousands of letters from all of softening the effect of President colored soldiers, why should not four one source put back-bone in Senators justice for these men.

The Washington years ago making bricks and erecting buildings without money is the Washington crowned heads of Europe honored; the Washington sacrificing time, strength and labor for his people in the country districts of the South, is the Washington American wealth and culture honor. The man who could do so well the "common things in an uncommon way" has also in a wonderful way done and is still doing the uncommon things in an uncommon way; whether pleading with his people or pleading for his people whether as an educator or as a plain, simple, earnest, unselfish, devoted, practical, Christian man, all of which is not by any meaus common, he has nevertheless done in an uncommon way, and there is the secret of his power, the underlying principle of his life. COLORADO data at hand. It is our business to collect this information and publish it for you and it ought to be your business not to file the paper away after you have finished it but to fold it nicely and mail it to some friend so that they can see what golden chances are open to them in the West. The Colorado STATESMAN will appreciate your efforts in assisting us in putting this paper in the hands of outsiders. RACE NEWS Gathered from Various Sources. W. H. Kennedy of New Orleans, a leading Negro Republican, has been reappointed by President Roosevelt a receiver of public monies. Our bright contemporary the Seattle Republican has recently given its readers this suggestive of wholesome wit of which all ought to readily see the point: "That alleged race riot down in Mississippi proved to be of the usual stripe of riots in the South the whites rioting and the blacks running. The expert sharp-shooters, however, winged ten of the fleeing blacks, which was a pretty good day's sport. We suppose the apologist for such outrages will say, "the darkies ought to learn to run faster if they want to keep down riot and save their lives." Whites Pleased With Rev. Sanders The Daily Democrat of La Junta Colo., in its issue of last Monday, January 14th had the following to say of Rev. J. W. Sanders, the General Missionary and Fiscal Agent of Colorado A. M. E. conference: Rev. J. W. Sanders who preached yesterday afternoon in the Presbyterian church is a man of more than ordinary ability, his sermon was certainly a masterpiece. It showed thought and care in preparation and research. His delivery was good and there was not a moment during the entire lecture that his hearers were not edified as well as entertained. The contribution which was taken at the close proved that it was appreciated, as there was a goodly sum raised. The A. M. E. Conference has made no mistake in sending such a man out in the interest of their church. Negro Race Needs Object In Life Outside of Self BOOKER T.

For example, it would be of great service to the race just now if the black man could concentrate his efforts and activities in assisting some more unfortunate people or groups of people in some portion of the world. At Tuskegee I teach the students that the highest service one can render is to help some one more unfortunate than themselves, and in this way attention is diverted from themselves. The establishment of schools and colleges will serve the same purpose, and I am glad to say that along these lines great progress is being made. In all this I am far from justifying any of the wrongs done our people, but I am suggesting these methods of helping to remedy these evils by different means; that is, by the old remedy of overcoming evil with good. The Public School and the Home By GEORGE H. MARTIN.

It is a function of the home to keep children to keep themselves clean, but soap and towels, many public schools as books.

It is the function of the home to teach the common household duties, but because girls wore cook, and the boys were given no manual duty have taken up the neglected functions. Because children come to school suffering orders and disease and filth, the burden has been of discovering these conditions and taking steps. So long as ignorance, poverty, vice and so long will the children be the chief sufferers and burdens not their own.

It does it through public officials, societies, hospitals, reformatories, schools. If all parents did their full duty by their children, the work of the schools would be light. It is a function of the home to keep children under moral restraint, but the burden is thrown upon the schools. I have heard fathers and mothers plead with teachers for help because they had lost control of their own boys and girls. It is a function of the home to keep children clean and to teach them to keep themselves clean, but soap and towels are found as necessary in many public schools as books. The homes should keep the children properly clothed, but most city schools find occasion to use private charities to keep children from suffering. The parents should feed their children, but in the largest cities, like London and New York, children are not properly fed, and society must feed them in the schools or somewhere else. It is the function of the home to teach the children to perform the common household duties, but because girls were not taught to sew and cook, and the boys were given no manual duties to perform, the schools have taken up the neglected functions. Because children come to school suffering from wounds and disorders and disease and filth, the burden has been placed upon the schools of discovering these conditions and taking steps to have them remedied. So long as ignorance, poverty, vice and indifference exist in homes so long will the children be the chief sufferers and the schools must assume burdens not their own. The public school is a thoroughly democratic institution. In the early days it was declared that children who did not bring wood to school should have no benefit of the fire, so the children of the rich were warm and the children of the poor were cold. Then society took upon itself to furnish fuel for all. The children of the rich brought books to school. The children of the poor came without them. To equalize opportunities the public furnishes books free to all. The public schools were not born to do all this work; they have not usurped it; it has been thrust upon them. Work in the Wee Sma' Hours By PROF. VICTOR HALLOPEAU. Member of Paris Academy of Medicine. The true secret of long-continued, valuable brain work is to cut the night in two.

The habit may be hard to acquire, but mechanical means of waking at first will induce the predisposition. Pierre Loti, the great novelist and writer of travel books, has long had the habit of so working, and declares his best thoughts, his clearest intellectual vision, his choicest phrases come to him when he works fresh from sleep, with all the world still in dreamland about him. Napoleon, who slept at will and always awoke with renewed vigor and freshness, is another example. The great warrior very seldom slept steadily through the night, and the fact is well substantiated that his most splendid and successful battles were planned in the quiet of night's later hours, after he had awakened from a three or four hours' sleep.

WILL WORK FOR COLORADO Formally Declared the Choice of the General Assembly—Delivers Short, Clear and Forcible Address—In Sympathy with President Roosevelt. Denver.—Formal sanction of Tuesday's action of the House and Senate was taken at noon Wednesday, when Simon Guggenheim, western head of the American Smelting and Refining Company, and reputed to be ten times a millionaire, was draped with the senatorial toga in joint session of the Sixteenth Assembly. The joint session was called to order by President Lewis of the Senate at noon and after the reading of the previous day's proceedings in both Houses, Simon Guggenheim was declared to be the choice of the Assembly for United States senator. Senator Parks moved that a committee of six be appointed to bring the senator-elect before the assembled body. Senators Parks, Anfenger and Barela and Representatives Dillingham, Cannon and Dray were named: five minutes elapsed and then Sergiant-at-Arms Young announced the approach of the senatorial escort. "Mr. President," he said, "the committee appointed to bring the senator-elect has arrived." He was received by President Lewis of the Senate and Speaker Breckenridge of the House and formally introduced to the people by the former in these words: "Senators and representatives, members of the joint Assembly, I have the honor to present to you the next United States senator from Colorado, Simon Guggenheim." Mr. Guggenheim was received with loud applause and addressed the joint meeting of the Assembly as follows: Senators and Representatives of the State of Colorado: Sincerely do I thank you for the great honor and for the confidence you have reposed in me in electing me to the highest office in the gift of our state I appreciate my responsibilities, and in order to give my entire time to the people of our nation and state during the sessions of Congress, and also during the recess, I have withdrawn from all active business. In accepting the position of senator I do so with the sole purpose of rendering loyal and efficient service to all the people, and to accomplish this object I shall be an active member of the United States Senate. By devoting constant time and attention to the duties of my high office much should be accomplished for our Nation and state. It has always been my ambition to be one of the state's builders, realizing that we are a young state, extensive in area, rich in resources, and capable of supporting a much larger population. Great is the opportunity of increasing the population and of attracting to Colorado the needed capital and labor for our development, that in time our commonwealth may become one of the most important states of our glorious Union. Gladly do I give up a commercial career for the purpose of assuming the responsibilities of senatorship and of devoting myself entirely to the obligations of the high office. I want to be judged by my record, which I hope will be such that all the people of our state may feel that their confidence has not been misplaced. At this time I wish to state clearly that I am going to Washington to represent all the people; that I am free and untrammeled, and under obligations to no interests, company, railroad or corporation. I am in hearty sympathy with the progressive achievements of our party and of President Roosevelt. I favor all legislation adopted by Congress to correct industrial evils and abuses, and will support and suggest further measures that experience or wisdom may demand as necessary. Any one occupying a public position must expect to be the target of criticism. Just criticism is beneficial, malicious misrepresentation digs its own grave. When I reached my majority I came to Colorado. I rejoice that the friends I made during the early days are still my friends. I hope to include in the bond of friendship all of the people of our state. Gentlemen, it is with deep appreciation that I accept the high honor and the great responsibility you have conferred upon me. KINGSTON EARTHQUAKE One Thousand Killed and Ninety Thousand Homeless. St. Thomas, D. W. I.—Reports received here from Jamaica say it is estimated that 1,000 persons have been killed by the earthquake and fire and that 90,000 persons are homeless. Advices received from Jamaica declare that all people have been warned to keep away from Kingston. The stench is described as awful. Money is useless. The banks have been burned, but the vaults are supposed to be safe. The misery on all sides is indescribable. Rich and poor alike are homeless. Provisions of all kinds are urgently needed. It is impossible to say where anybody can be found. The dead are being buried under smouldering ruins. The mercantile community suffered most severely, warehouses falling on them. Many professional men are dead or injured. The negroes are looting. Ghastly scenes are being witnessed. All the shops have been destroyed and all the buildings in and around Kingston are in ruins. Few of them are safe to live in. It is reported that an extinct volcano in the parish of Portland is showing signs of activity, but this has not been verified. No news has yet been received from other parts of the Island of Jamaica, communication being difficult. The damage to Kingston alone is placed at fully $10,000,000. CITY NEWS. Mrs. George S.

Mr. Cartwright is well known in Kansas City, in fact he is pupular throughout the entire West, but in Kansas City where one can always "have a time," the friends of Mr. Cartwright never lost any time in making the gentleman from the Queen City feel at home.

What proved to be one of the most enjoyable events of the year was the smoker given last Saturday night by the young men of the Denver Club at Odd Fellows hall, 1712 Curtis street. The program opened up with music by the Denver Club quartet and orchestra. Checkers and whist were the games indulged in. At the proper hour the members of the crew and their guests were seated at the long line of tables which were beantifully decorated and bore a lot of good things to eat. At each plate a choral ballod of popular songs on the front page of which was a comical cartoon which was the work of E. J. Wicks, who is quite an artist in that line. The only misfortune of the evening was the scarcity of water. the hydrant having been shut off for repairs, therefore a substitute for water was furnished in the way of—well you know what goes with such occasions—everything. Sherman Overton was toastmaster of the evening and as such he is an ideal one, his preface of those who spoke was indeed unique. After the feast Wm. Russ announced the great boxing contest between two of the crew, but just before the bout he read a telegram from Joe Gans, challenging the winner, but as neither of the boys cared to tackle Gans they fought to a draw. There were a number of others who donned the big mits and Mr. Russ, the official referee, had no little amount of trouble in making the boys quit fighting by "coonsberry" tactics. The committee in charge were, A. E. Bell, chairman; Wm. Slade, N. J. Skillern, John Rhodes, and they with the personal assistance of every member of the crew, won the highest commendation from their guests as model entertainers.

At a meeting of the Society of Arts in London, Dr. W. Hall of Leeds, in a discussion on physical degeneration in England, insisted that food was the main thing, and threw on a screen pictures to show the striking superiority of Jewish children in Leeds over those of the English community living in similar conditions—the former being better fed, especially in infancy, and having generally acquired the habit of breathing through the nostrills, whereas the English children were mostly mouth breathers, ill fed and ratkety. Frozen Meat Trade. Some idea of the extensiveness of the frozen meat trade may be gained when it is noted that there are no fewer than fifty-eight freezing plants in Australasia and Argentina.

During the past year the total output of Australia, New Zealand and the River Platte for all markets was equal to about $28,000 tons of frozen meat. $11 --- JOHNSON-NOEL O.'s STOCK CLEARANCE Clothing of a High-Grade L.

A young business man of Harlem, who didn't love dogs, surprised his wife the other night by bringing home a disreputable looking, half-starved mongrel. "Now, it's all right," he told her. "This dog is going to stay here, and I think when you hear the circumstances you won't object. About three blocks away from the house this dog deliberately stopped in front of me. The beast looked as if he had not eaten for days, never had a home and had been kicked and cuffed by nearly everyone. He looked at me in such an appealing way that I couldn't help stooping down and patting him once or twice on the head. "I thought no more about the matter and continued on my way home. When I had gone a block or so I suddenly felt something cold and wet against my hand, and turning around, I saw this poor beast, out of gratitude for my having just patted him on the head, licking my hand. "After this dog gets a few meals and a wash he will look very different from the way he looks now. Anyway, I want him to stay." The dog stayed.—New York Sun. Dr. Savage's Eugene Field Story. The Rev. Minot J. Savage, on being introduced to speak before a large Boston assembly a short time since, told a story about Eugene Field and vouchered for its truth, because he heard Seth Low tell it. Field sat down at a table in a New York restaurant and presently was approached by a voluble waiter, who began to rapidly enumerate the articles upon the menu—"Coffee-teach chocolate ham'n'eggs-beefsteak-mutton chop-fishballs-hash'n-beans," etc. Field looked at him with fixed eye and solemn visage, and said with marked deliberation: "I want none of these things. All I desire is one orange and a few kind words." "Now," observed Dr. Savage, "I don't know as I can bring to you the flavor of an orange, but I feel sure I can serve you with a few kind words." Snake Coifed in Bed. When Mr. and Mrs. Mord Lincoln awakened Friday morning at their home in Milltown, on the Southern, twenty-five miles west of New Albany, they were startled to find a huge blacksnake coiled at the foot of the bed. Lincoln kicked the reptile to the floor, and after a lively fight managed to kill it by hitting it on the head with a chair. Mrs. Lincoln was so badly frightened that she has since been suffering from nervous prostration. The door of the house had been left open on account of the heat, and it is supposed the snake glided in from the yard, and, finding that the foot of the bed afforded comfortable quarters, coiled itself there.—Louisville Courier Journal.

American Medicine. PRESIDENTTALKS ON SANTO DOMINGO, CONSULAR SERVICE AND TRADE. FAVORS THE SUBSIDY BILL Had to Help Santo Domingo to Prevent Foreign Intervention—Asserta Power of Removal in Civil and Military Service—Monroe Doctrine Upholds Peace. Washington.—President Roosevelt was given a great ovation Wednesday night when he addressed the delegates to the national convention for the extension of the foreign commerce of the United States. A delegate from one of the far western states mounted a chair and proposed: "Three cheers for Teddy Roosevelt, President of the United States." For ten minutes the 600 delegates cheered the President. The President declared it was a pleasure to greet the delegates. He paid a tribute to Secretary Root and declared that the minute we leave American soil party lines are disregarded and we are all Americans. "What Secretary Root has already said has my unqualified indorsement," said the President. He said he would talk on three subjects, already referred to by Secretary Root: First, our relations with Santo Domingo; second, the consular service; and third, the extension of our trade in Central and South America. "The first duty of the government," the President said, "is to help Santo Domingo stand on her feet." He referred to the pending treaty, which, he declared, if adopted, will remove all danger in future of any necessity of intervention. He reviewed the causes which led up to the United States taking a hand in the affairs of the island republic, and explained the objects of the proposed treaty. "Two years ago," said the President, "things in Santo Domingo got into such shape that we became satisfied certain European powers, if we did not take some steps to better conditions, would themselves take possession of certain ports in the island. We had to act to prevent action by others." The President took up the question of reform in the consular service and praised the conference's work in this connection. "I believe that a great improvement has been worked in the consular service," he said, "but I do not believe the power of removal should be restricted." The President declared that both in the civil and military service he keeps open "the door of ready exit for the unfit." He said that no one except himself had the power to close this door. He urged the passage of laws by the present Congress that will extend American trade to every section of the globe. He said that a bill incorporating the suggestions made by Secretary Root in his Kansas City speech had been prepared and expressed the hope that it would be passed at this session of Congress. "This bill," he added, "is absolutely needed if we are to meet foreign competition." The President declared that there is no doctrine advocated by any nation that compares with the Monroe doctrine in advancing the cause of peace "The prime boast of the United States navy is to avert war," he declared in discussing the needs of a bigger navy and the wisdom of preparing for war in the time of peace. "The United States navy is the cheapest insurance this Nation has. Treat every power with justice, with every courtesy—courtesy is very cheap, but very valuable—and don't give any nation cause for offense." In conclusion, the President declared that he hoped the meeting of the convention would result in a faster line of ships to South America and the Orient.

Boulder Sugar Factory Assured. Denver.—A Republican special from Boulder Tuesday night says: The beet sugar factory for Boulder is practically assured. F. F. Kilby of Cleveland, Ohio, who built the plants north of Boulder, was here to-day and saw a number of business men. He wired his associates in Cleveland to stop all negotiations with other parties in reference to the plant in Michigan, as he had practically closed the deal with the Boulder people. The stock company was agreed upon, also the amount at which the corporation shall be capitalized. Mr. Kilby said his associates would be more than willing that the majority of directors should be Boulder people. Contracts to furnish beets for the new mill are already being signed. It is hoped the plant will be shipped to boulder by March and be ready for operation next fall. Sandbagged by Footpads. Denver.—A Fort Collins dispatch Wednesday says: Last night A. E. McMillan, a prominent transfer man, was sandbagged and robbed by two footpads, who rushed upon him as he was nearing his home. He was not seriously injured. Opportunities Afforded by the Central During the past few years the practice of banking by mail has had a phenomenal growth all over the country, especially in the central West. In Denver, the financial center of a large territory, the Central Savings Bank is making a specialty of this line of business, to the accommodation and satisfaction of a large and constantly growing list of depositors in Colorado and adjacent states and territories. All those who have tried this kind of banking are pleased with the advantages and security which it affords. The Central Savings Bank is one of the great and substantial financial institutions of Denver, being the largest and most important savings bank between St. Louis and the Pacific coast. It has the unstinted confidence of the business community, and in the number of its depositors ranks with the largest banks in Denver, showing that it is high in public favor. The growth of its business is shown by the rapid growth of its deposits, which on October 1, 1906, were $2,014,126.08, and on January 7, 1907, had increased to $2,372,138.09. The following table shows its steady increase in deposits for the past nine and one-half years: | Date | Amount | | :--- | :--- | | July, 1897 | $136,144.62 | | July, 1899 | 345,896.18 | | July, 1901 | 728,228.48 | | July, 1903 | 1,409,853.11 | | January, 1906 | 1,680,111.09 | | April, 1906 | 1,693,704.46 | | October, 1906 | 2,014,126.08 | | January, 1907 | 2,372,138.09 | The capital stock of the bank, all paid in, is $100,000.00, and its surplus and undivided profits January 7, 1907, $100,159.45. The Central Savings Bank was established in 1892 on safe and conservative lines, and has had a most prosperous career. It handles both commercial and savings accounts. Upon savings accounts it pays four per cent. interest, compounded semi-annually, and on commercial accounts it pays two and one-half per cent. on daily balances exceeding $1,000. It also deals extensively in municipal and public utility bonds. Its safety vault department offers the use of a vault that is mob, burglar and fire proof. The president of the Central Savings Bank, Mr. B. F. Salzer, is one of the most successful and highly esteemed business men of Denver. He is president of the B. F. Salzer Lumber Company and has large interests throughout the city and state. George Richardson, vice president, is one of the best known Colorado pioneers and a banker of long experience. William E. Wilson, the other vice president, is one of the leading physicians of Denver, where he has practiced for twenty-five years. W. M. Marshal, cashier, has been in banking twenty-three years and has been cashier of the bank since its organization. J. V. Cockins, assistant cashier, has been with the bank thirteen years, and is thoroughly familiar with its business. Its directors are all well-known and substantial men. ACCIDENTS TO WORKERS. Some Appalling Statistics of Loss of Life. Dr. Josiah Strong, president of the American Institute of Social Service, in speaking of the number of persons killed each year in our industrial occupations, made some astonishing comparisons. He said: "We in the United States kill in four years some 80,000 persons more than fall in battle and died of wounds during the four years of the Civil War. We are killing more than twice as many every year as perished by violence in both the French and English armies during the three years of the Crimean War. "There are more killed and wounded on our railroads every year than the entire losses of the Boer War on both sides in three years. We have industrial casualties enough every year to keep one conflict like our war with Spain going for 100 years. Our peaceful vocations cost more lives every two days than were lost in battle during the entire Spanish War. "From the best statistics obtainable, I may say there are to-day 575,000 persons in the United States under sentence of death to be executed at an unknown moment during the next ten years—1,100 next week and the same number every week until the ghastly work is complete. An intelligent and earnest effort would procure the reprieve of a multitude of these innocent victims." Salton Sea Like Ontario. According to Louis C. Hill, supervising engineer of the United States Reclamation Service for Arizona and southern California, if the Colorado river continues to flow into the Salton sink it will bring into existence a body of water that will be as large as Lake Ontario. Speaking on the subject he said: "Already 450 square miles of the bed of the basin of what was once a salt sea has been covered by the water to a depth of sixty feet, and if the flow continues, 2,000 square miles will be covered to a depth of 270 feet. "As the water has torn down into the sink, which is 200 feet below the level of the sea, it has made an ever deepening ravine, until at present the water falls from a height of eighty feet and gives promise of creating a second Niagara." Carnegie's Partners, the People. The Review of Reviews prints an article by Andrew Carnegie, entitled "My Partners, the People." Carnegie expresses the belief that a millionaire ought to share his wealth with the poor, but with the limitation that his fortune should not be divided before the millionaire's death. Then the community should expect a large share. Carnegie humbly deprecates the claim of the merely wealthy to fame. They have no place with the educated man, and they occupy a lower plane intellectually. In the coming day brains will stand above dollars, and conduct above both. Experiments to Be Made by the University of Colorado. The Union Pacific Railway Company has recently submitted to the civil engineering department of the University of Colorado a series of tests to be made upon slag from the immense dumps of the smelters. These tests will be made with the view of determining the value of the slag as a substitute in the place of broken rock for concrete work in culverts, retaining walls, platforms, and the like. As the expense in breaking rock for use in concrete is large, and this would be in a large part obviated by the use of the slag, the saving would be great. Millions of tons of this waste lie unused, and if its utility should be determined for some purpose, the economic importance would be considerable. The object of the experiments therefore is not only to accomplish a financial economy in the matter of breaking and transporting the rock, but of ascertaining the efficiency of the slag in its place. Consequently, tension, compression, and, weathering tests are and will be made, and comparisons drawn between the stone of the Lyons formation and the slag in regard to their efficiency as aggregates. The work is under the direct supervision of F. W. Doolittle and H. J. Kesner of the civil engineering department of the University and when their report is made to the railway company the announcement of the results will be awaited with interest. Cure for Opium Habit. It is said that 14,000 victims of the opium habit have been cured within a few weeks in the Malay states by the use of a plant recently discovered in Selangor. Some people believe everything they hear, and take the rest for granted. Denver Directory A $40 Saddle for $28 C.O.D.

In Ceylon grows a tree called "Eve's Apple Tree." It is the fruit of this tree which makes it remarkable. It is a beautiful fruit to look at, deep red on the inside and orange on the outside, and out of each fruit a piece appears to have been bitten. The simulation of a fruit which has recently been bitten into is perfect. You can see the very marks of the teeth, and anyone not knowing the facts would be deceived. For this reason, and because the fruit is a deadly poison, the natives declare that the tree is that which grew in the Garden of Eden and was called the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil. After Eve ate of the fruit, and thus brought death and sin into the world, the fruit assumed the appearance it has now, as a perpetual reminder of her rash and disobedient act. --- 2707 Welton St. Open Day and Night.

It has been agreed that it is only to the matron the luxurious ease of the tea-gown may be granted. For her, of course, the matter of house gowns is simply settled, the fabrics to be face-cloth, velveteen, or soft satin, most of the decoration being disposed at the neck or round the shoulders and taking the form of a lace collar or a chiffon and lace vest. other is of musquash trimm dull gold galon and ecu lace styles might be admirably cloth or in velvet, or velveteen popularity for costumes for wear grows ever and always. the way, some of the latest veil short walking costumes are a finely striped velvet trimm sik braid. A novelty which deserves is a white cloth blouse cover an embroidery in silk and other woolen blouses are of vas, and others, again, of ca but on the score of economy these can be cordially commer they suffer very severely fro to the laundress or cleaner, Every young girl should possess herself of an indoor gown of velveteen, and I would advise for its best conduct that the bodice be fashioned in blouse style, worn unlined over a tightly-fitting underbodice, and belted to comfort through a buckle, or by means of bones at the front and back. This method avoids weight and too much warmth, drawbacks to lined velveteen, which renders it impossible for some people, whom I would advise to substitute cashmere or nun's veiling. A very pretty house gown is made of cashmere in a red currant shade, the bodice front and back bearing a plastron of lace, crossed into pointed ends at the waist, showing the nun's veiling under the arms and on the sleeves, which should reach to the elbows or the wrist according to the beauty of the individual arm which it may be destined to adorn. An admirable way of making a cashmere skirt, than which no better has been devised, is to have three large tucks round the hem, and two more below the knees, and two more above them. The sun-ray accordion-plaited skirts made of nun's velling, has proved a boon and blessing for house wear, but we are becoming a little tired of their charms, which is, indeed, most ungrateful, since they offer such facilities for attractive frocks with no outlay, needing only a length of material sufficient to make a bodice, some oddments of lace out of the lace drawer to decorate the bodice to taste. There, then, is the home dress complete, save for the belt, which could be selected either of plain silk or chine ribbon according to the size of the waist to be encircled. Face cloth may, of course, be allowed to make the home gown, but suffers from the same disadvantage as velveteen, that of too much weight, a trouble which may to some extent be avoided by the omission of all lining. Cloth, of course, wears better than velveteen, not being liable to suffer so severely round the hem from contact with carpets; for it is the hem of the velveteen gown which invariably displays its age. An attractive tea gown is shown in our large illustration. It may, however, be more justly described as a dressing-gown than a tea-gown, and I can picture it looking very well in pale blue face cloth trimmed with pale blue glace frills, white embroidery on pale blue glace forming the decoration. The two other pictures show the fur coat under most elegant conditions, the first being made of mole skin with oxidized silver buttons, and a double-breasted waistcoat of suede to match, hemmed with a lighter shade of grey corded silk while the other is of musquash trimmed with dull gold galon and ecru lace. Both styles might be admirably copied in cloth or in velvet, or velveten, whose popularity for costumes for outdoor wear grows ever and always. And, by the way, some of the latest very smart short walking costumes are made of a finely striped velvet trimmed with silk braid. A novelty which deserves mention is a white cloth blouse covered with an embroidery in silk and chenille, other woolen blouses are of fine canvas, and others, again, of cashmere, but on the score of economy none of these can be cordially commended, for they suffer very severely from a visit to the laundress or cleaner, usually turning yellow, and the blouse made in shirt style of white China silk may be relied upon for greater durability. The latest cry in hats is the fur cap. Its most popular trimming is a glistening green bird at one side; other decorations are rosettes of dull gold, small round bunches of flowers, or a waving paradise plume. Amongst the best and most unusual examples that I have seen is one of black fox with a crown of black tulle and a decoration of aggressive green wings at one side. This, worn by a girl with a plentiful mass of dull red hair, is specially successful. In our smaller illustration we show an original and effective costume in dark green cloth. It is made in princess form, the slightly draped folds of the corsage being apparently held in place at either side by a series MARIE A Novel Design in Faced Cloth and Silk Braid.

In a recent report, he says that the food fishes of Hawaii are rapidly disappearing because of the slaughter of those not fully grown. Ignorant natives and Japanese laborers are responsible. Besides using small mesh nets they have a method of making a catch which is thus described by Mr. Herring: "The natives use a mixture or combination of herbs known as auhuhu or akia, a ball of which when deposited at the bottom of a pond frequented by fish acts in the nature of chloroform, putting the fish to sleep. When the fish rise to the surface the natives gather them up, and they are sold or eaten like other fish. "There does not appear to be any harmful effect from the use of this drug after the fish are cooked, for the Hawaiians eat fish killed in this manner with impunity. But the action of the drug is the same on all fish within the radius of its influence, and the young suffer death as well as the larger fish. "The present law provides a penalty for fishing with dynamite, but does not cover this method of destroying the fish." On Mr. Herring's suggestion a new protective law has been introduced in the Hawaiian Legislature. LEFT THEM BOTH GUESSING. Trick of Traveler That Caused Coolness Between Companies Better Between Companions. "Courtesy always pays," said Mme. Rejane, the French actress, to an interviewer. "If we are courteous to people, they like us and they try to help us. If we are discourteous to them, they hate us and oppose us. "Two women occupied a compartment in a railway carriage with one man, a stranger. They were extremely rude to this man. In whispers that he could overhear, they criticised his costume, his figure and his manner. He, to be revenged, did a singular thing. "The blackness of a tunnel enveloped the car, and under cover of the darkness the man kissed the back of his hand loudly and repeatedly. Then, when the train entered the light again, he looked from one woman to the other with a significant smile. "They exchanged glances of suspicion. "Was it you he kissed? "No, of course not. Was it you? "And neither lady would believe the other's denial, and each, in her inmost heart, was offended to think that the man had chosen her companion instead of herself to kiss. The man looked cool and complacent. When, finally, he rose to go, he said, lifting his hat with a jocular air: "Have no fear, ladies. I shall never tell which of you it was." CARE OF THE FLOOR USEFUL DIRECTIONS FOR THE CAREFUL HOUSEWIFE Expert Tells of Methods He Uses in Keeping in Condition the Floors In a Large City Hotel. Hardwood floors are becoming more and more of a necessity in the average home. They are practical, sanitary and in the end less expensive than carpets, besides affording opportunities for artistic rugs. In hotels and large houses the floors are under the supervision of a man who comes in once a month or so to refurbish and look them over. Smaller households can attend to these details themselves. The following directions given by a floor finisher may help some persons who can not have their floors taken care of by experts. "The most important part of finishing a floor," says this man who attends to the large hotels in a city, "is to give it a smooth, soft appearance. "It should be well planed, scraped and sandpapered to give it an even surface before any filling is applied. "No. 1 sandpaper is best for this purpose. It is ruinous to a floor to finish it without properly preparing it in the beginning. "Varnish should be seldom used on a floor. If I had my way I should never use it, but some persons prefer it for kitchens, bathrooms and floors that need wiping with water. "If the floor is old the first step is to scrape it thoroughly, using a cabinet maker's scraper. This is a rounded piece of sheet tin and does not scratch the floor while it will remove every particle of old dirt and fillings. "If the varnish sticks badly the hard places can be soaked with lye and water before using the scraper. "A new floor will not have any holes, but an old floor may have many that will have to be puttied up before applying any finish. "Care must be taken not to use much oil in doing this, as it spreads on the wood and when the hole is filled the surface must be smoothed with the scraper. "The next step is to apply the coating. "Its object is to bring out the grain of the wood and it should be rubbed in with a rag. Linseed oil is good for this. "I let it lie about ten minutes before wiping for the last time. When the floor is dry I apply a coat of shellac. I thin this, so it will dry readily, and apply with a wide and pliable brush. Then I wax the floor with a prepared wax which I buy by the pounds and use a white cotton rag for the purpose. "After the floor has remained in this state over night I polish it with the heaviest polishing iron I can use. "Sometimes this iron weighs 50 pounds and the floor looks so well I am repaid for the effort. I always have success if I am allowed to finish a floor exactly in this manner." If there are stains use a little turpentine on a rag to remove them unless they are ink stains, in which case a little oxalic acid will remove them. The true secret of good looks in hardwood floors is never to wash them in soap and water. If wax makes them too slippery the shellac alone can be supplied. Soft wood floors can be finished like hardwood, and though they are more easily scratched they are to be preferred to carpets. It is a mistake to put coloring matter on a floor. Natural color is always preferable either in hard or soft wood. For Making Good Coffee. First, scald the coffee pot and be sure that it is thoroughly scoured and no stain is on the inside, then put in about one cupful more of water than you will require when it is done. Let it boll hard for five minutes and then put in the coffee which must be ground rather fine? Turn the pot away from a hot fire and let it simmer for ten minutes, then set it back where it will only keep hot and settle for five minutes. Put cream in the cups first and pour the coffee into it. Never attempt to use the coffee a second time nor add to the old grounds. Throw all out and start fresh with a clean pot. Chicken, Family Style Cut up a large tender fowl and parboil briskly. Drain or wipe each piece dry and place in dripping pan. Then add six thin slices of bacon, a lemon cut in thin slices, a pint of baby olives, a can of small mushrooms, half a dozen bay leaves, salt and pepper. Add to the liquor in which the fowl has been parboiled a pint of cream. Then pour the mixture over the chicken and cook for an hour and a half. Uncover the last half hour to permit the chicken to brown. Apple Sherbet. Cook the pulp of six apples in one quart of cider, seasoned to taste with sugar and cinnamon. When tender rub through a sieve, cool, and freeze; when partly frozen add the stiffly beaten whites of two eggs. Serve in chilled apple shells. Dates and Cereal. Cook any preferred cereal until well done and just moist. Remove pits from large dates and in their places put roasted and shelled peanuts. Roll in granulated sugar; heap on a dish and surround with hot cereal.
