THE COLORADO STATESMAN THE JOURNAL OF THE WEST. LABOR SHALL BE FREE RACE COUNTRY PARTY Washington D.C. The Jew and the Negro and the Prejudice that Exists Against Them in America—The Hebrew is Strongly Organized to Resent Discrimination Against Them. VOL. XIII, Washing The Jew and the Negro and the Pr in America—The Hebrew Resent Discriminat Special to Colorado Statesman: A few weeks ago in these columns, I called attention to the difference between the Jew and the Negro, as stated by a member of the former race. This gentleman said to me that "When the Jew found out that he was not wanted in any place, he didn't go there any more but that the Negro was continually pushing himself where he was not wanted." Recent events would seem to indicate, however that there is a much greater and far more distinctive difference, the Jew goes a decided step further and though he may not seek to enter the forbidden place again, he does insist on being shown by what right of law or ethics he and his are barred. These people through an organization known as the Union of American Hebrew Congregations, with a branch membership in all important cities, is prepared to make a bitter and aggressive warfare in the courts of the country for the safe-guarding of their constitutional rights. Mr. Simon Wolf, the leading Hebrew citizen of Washington and a lawyer of national reputation, is chairman of the board of directors and is ever watchful of the best interests and civic rights of his fellow citizens of that race. Recently there was brought to the attention of the Union the action of a leading hotel at Atlantic City in closing its doors to some members of the family of Senator Usidor Rayner. Mr. Wolf prepared and sent letters to all branches of the Union calling for concerted action wherever discriminations against Jews are practiced and asking prompt reports of whatever action might be taken. One of the cases in evidence had its inception through the advertisements of a hotel at Lake Sunapee, N. H., which read:—"Hebrew patronage not solicited" and "Hebrews will not be received as Guest." Mr. Wolfs' circular letter closed with these significant words "This continuance advertisement is becoming a nuisance and is educating people in the wrong direction and we must not permit it, no matter how contemptible the action of the summer hotel people is." So it is that the Jews are far --- and away ahead of the Negro in the means of protest through a forceful, united and aggressive union. Its leaders are respected and possesses the confidence of the rank and file of the race as well as its moral and financial encouragement and support in all efforts for the general weal. The Constitution of the United States and the Amendments thereto are explicit; defining in unmistakable terms the rights and duties of citizenship and leaving nothing to be guessed at, nothing to be taken for granted. The leaders of the Hebrew people well understand this and have the intelligence, the courage and the pride of race which impels them to see to it that the privileges of their people are not unwarrantably abridged. Relatively, the status of the Negro before the constitution is the same. To be sure there are points of difference as to his civic racial history but the Constitution and Federal enactments are emphatic in the assertion of his manhood rights. How then does it appear that he is so poor a thing that he is shorn at will of the most ordinary privileges that should run with his citizenship. A number of reasons may be advanced for this condition: He has been so long quiescent under wrongs and outrages, that his oppressors have grown to feel it is the proper way to treat him. His trade is secure because he has no commercial businesses and the golden stream which goes to purchase his comforts and necessities must therefore continue to flow in the same channel, so that however badly he may be treated, his patronage cannot be diverted. He has no powerful advocates to champion his cause as in former times and must depend upon his own prowess to wrest from an increasingly adverse sentiment, the very least modicum of consideration. The Grants, Summers and Logans advocating the fullest equality and liberty of action for all classes of citizens in the republic have given place to a long line of political acrobats who, for party advantage, or to appease a hostile sentiment, may vault with the most perfect ease over every bar DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, JUNE 1, 1907. State Historical and N H Society, Denver, Colo RADO THE JOURNAL DENVER, COLORADO which marks the highwater of Negro privilege. They have swung the "door of opportunity" open it is true; but at the same time, they have equipped it with all sorts of duplex and triple action springs, so that it is scarcely open before it swings to with a resounding bang. The Negro men who by training, ability and position are abundantly fitted to perform similar service for the Negro as is being done by Mr. Wolf and others for the Hebrew, seem to have hitched their destiny to a star that is self-centered and does not include in its orbit the aggressive championing of the fullest Negro privilege. Mr. Booker Washington has done much to prepare the Negro for industrial opportunity and deserves the gratitude of all Americans, whether black or white, but it is to be regretted that an equal or even greater force has not been active in the safe-guarding and preservation to Negroes everywhere the ligitimate fruits of his enfranchisement. To be sure there are local and national organizations galore, but their total measure of actual accomplishment may be quite fully realized by the smallest child without the least possible fear of a brain-storm or a headache. Save a partial success in one instance which may be credited to the Niagra Movement, efforts along such lines have been painfully futile. One case of discrimination handled by a Negro lawyer from the South, seems to have made commendable progress, but was finally thrown out by the Supreme Court because a requirement of the Court involving the payment of $5.00 had not been met by the lawyer. How in the name of common sence is the world to regard such a showing as this? Is it incompetency, weakness, carelessness or what? Adequate laws supposed to operate for the protection of the whole people are everywhere null and void at the will of prejudice, as regards the Negro, principally because competent legal service, uncompromising devotion to principle and sufficient financial support (an invincible trinity) have never yet in the history of the race been brought together in a proportion adequately strong to challenge the respectful consideration of citizens or government. It is a sad and pitiful commentary, yet the verdict comes in ringing crushing tones—Guilty as indicted. It is true of the ten millions in the country at large, it is true, too, and much more sad, when affirmed of that intelligent and well to-do section of the race, which forms a third of the population of the District of Columbia. Here it looms a very giant in statue, impressively grand and attractive in all of its proportions, yet its muscles are over-flabby tho' disuse, and its veins seem filled with a sluggish, milky stream, where should flow and leap the bounding red blood of health and action. JOHN H. PAYNTER. RACE NEWS Gathered from Various Sources. St. Louis, Mo., May 15.—Contrary to precedent, Eugene and James McGee, white boys, living at No. 2820 Glasgow avenue were found guilty of stealing chickens from Archie Perkins, a Negro of 1612 Glasgow avenue today and sentenced to two years each in the penitentiary. The case came under the new statute, which makes chicken stealing a felony instead of amisdemeanor, as formerly. At the trial one of the fowls was used to corroborate Perkins testimony. He called it to him and when released from the cage it started for the witness stand where Perkins was testifying. Fourteen convicts, mostly Negroes, attempted to escape from the Sumpter county chain gang Monday in Americus, Ga. They sprang upon two of the three guards, whom they caught unawares, and wrested from them their weapons. The remaining guard ran, dropping his gun. As the fourteen convicts made off, Brady Reddick, a Negro convict, picked up the gun and pursued them. He overtook them before they had separated, and covering them with his weapon, marched them back to camp. There he made them chain to one another. He was able to hold ten of them, four getting away. The four had all escaped recently and been captured at a cost of $500 in rewards. Atlanta, May 16.—The Farmers' Union of Georgia, with a membership of 80,000, yesterday went on record as opposed to the movement to bring emigrants into the South. At a largely attended convention held here a resolution was unanimously adopted condemning the immigration movement and calling on the legislature to make no appropriation for the purpose of inducing foreigners to come to Georgia. The union oppose immigration on the ground that undesirable citizens will be brought into the state; that they will crowd the native Georgians out of the factories by working for lower wages, and that the admission of so many will increase the production of cotton and lower the price. Colored man lauded as laborer. During the debate speaker after speaker, all of them farmers, paid tribute to the Negro as a laborer when false ideas are kept out of his head. All said that the Negro was infinitely preferable to such foreigners as it was proposed to bring South. HELP ONE ANOTHER. There is no Afro-American who is so ignorant as to deny that "In union, there is strength." Hardly will there be found one who does not preach the doctrine, yet it is a notorious fact that there are many who preach what they do not practice. Under the guise of "looking out for himself" upon the theory that one has as much right to do a thing as another, and lastly through the great enemy of the Afro-American "envy," we are constantly doing those things ourselves, which tend to destroy the very idea we preach—Union. To be more emphatic, if a colored person commences a business in the town, and seemingly does well, then an idea strikes another one of us to commence the same kind of business, thus crippling the originator of the idea, and impede either one from doing a business, which would materially help the race. It is not our purpose to question one's right to do this, but we ask, is it the right thing to do? Why not open up a laundry, instead of a grocery, and not be your brothers competitor. Why not help him rather than retard him by lifting yourself upon his ideas. The idea of selfishness cannot succeed alone any branch of business. When you find an Afro-American trying to build up business, losing time, health and money, to succeed by it, and making an enterprise of which the race may be proud, help him by giving your individual support; in mean time, demands of him good treatment and as good prices as you can get at other places but, stick to him. There are few men who are capable of activity operating successfully any more than one line of business. Let us learn to help one another, if we wish to be helped.—True Reformer. POSSIBILITIES OF NEGROES Columbus, Ohio, May 20.—That a mistake was made in 1865 in giving the Negro unrestricted citizenship was the intimation made in address to day by a friend of the Negro, Dr. Wilson, of Pittsburg, in connection with the presentation of the Board of Missions for Freedmen before the Presbyterian General Assembly. The sentiment was received with applause from the assembly. "I have had men on this Board of Freedmen say to me that they thought it would have been wise to have fixed an educational qualification or a property qualification, and let the colored men thus grow up into the enjoyment of the full rights of citizenship and that after various experiment he made, he said, giving full credit to the men who had written the amendment NO. 36. to the constitution, and held that it would be no discredit to the colored man. He said the question was seriously asked whether the colored man had the capabilities to reach that plane contemplated by the forefathers for experiments with colored men in different parts of the country he was fully convinced that they did have those capabilities. Putting the degraded Southern Negro at the side of the degraded Pole, the degraded Slav, the degraded Italian, he said he would select the degraded Southern Negro as the one possessing the most capabilities of being transformed into a good American citizen. There are more possibilities among the Negroes than among the degraded alien population he said. The report of the Board of Missions for Freedmen alluded at some length to the temporary closing of the Harbison college at Abbeville, S.C., last year because of local race antagonism engendered during a political campaign. The pressure brought upon the President of the school forced him to resign. JUDGE RACE BY MERIT. How often do you hear the remark or see an article that the Negro is not progressing or not meeting my expectations than those same people will point you to some inferior colored man to prove their assertion that is not right, not fair, not justice. If you judge the white race you select some one who has made a mark. Like Roosevelt. Lincoln, Shakespeare, Bryant, Milton, or Emerson; they never point to a white man in the gutter or in the penitentiary. Why not select the best of the Negro race and compare them in your judgment? Such men as Booker T. Washington, Alex. Dumas, Richard T. Greener, DuBois, Bruce or Douglass. Then again, if a colored man commits larceny or steals a few dollars, or a few chickens, our whole race must bear the blame for the acts of that one. While on the other hand the white man robs trains, steals thousands of dollars from banks, and dozens of horses and you do not condemn the white race. Is this fair? Is this justice? A white clerk may steal from every bank in Des Moines, yet they put another in as clerk again; while if one colored man fails or steals you seem afraid to try another. Then again, my kind friends judge us from the depths we have come rather than the heights we have reached. We only ask as any reasonable person can ask—an equal chance in the race of life. Let merit and not color prevail. Open the door of your offices and workshops free to him or her who is qualified.—Des Moines Bystander. A RESORT FOR LADIES AND GENTLEMEN.

DETECTIVES AT WORK Great Wave of Investigation Has Reached Colorado and Gives Promise to Wash Some Rotten Crafts Ashore. That the federal inquisition now in progress in Denver involves some of the largest corporations in America, and that indictments will be returned against men who are rated as multimillionaires and captains of industry, known as well in Wall street as in Colorado, is the latest development in connection with the probing of the grand jury. No less than 120 secret service men now make their headquarters in Denver, this small army of government sleuths having rented a large portion of the fifth floor of the Quincy building, seventeenth and Curtis streets, from where they are spreading the net that is tightening about victims in high places. Is the American Smelting and Refining Company now under the microscope of the government detectives? Gossip that comes directly from the inside indicates an affirmative answer and that the great concern, headed by the recently-elected senator from Colorado, will not escape a searching inquisition on the question of rebates. Some months ago it was announced that Earl M. Cranston, United States district attorney, had been commissioned a special prosecutor by the government to probe the charges of rebating made against the smelter trust. Mr. Cranston refused to make any statement on the question at the time, nor has he admitted since that he had received such a commission. Nevertheless the Department of Justice suddenly concentrated all of its attention on Denver and gradually the city has been filling up with special agents. First came Judge Marsden C. Burch and Oliver Paden, representing the Department of Justice. Then came a squad of secret service men, whose numbers gradually swelled. L. C. Wheeler, in the service of the Department of Justice at Washington, is in charge of the secret service men. He has been engaged in the work at Washington for years, and meritorious service in many states won him the honor of being placed at the head of the coal and timber land fraud inquiry. He came to Denver from Omaha, where he for many months had charge of the investigation that resulted in the conviction of Richardson and Comstock for land grabbing in the state of Nebraska. Many of the land detectives, who then worked with him and were successful in the apprehension of the big operators, have accompanied him to Denver. And these, with experiences and lessons of the investigation in Nebraska fresh in their minds, have been assigned to varied districts in Colorado and they are now quietly at work collecting evidence. In addition to Colorado, the secret service agents under the direction of the Denver office are being sent into Utah, Wyoming and New Mexico by Mr. Wheeler, who believes that there will be some startling revelations in the very near future. Cattle Being Dipped at Denver Yards. Denver.—The grounds of the Denver Union Stock Yards Company are scenes of activity these days, owing to the great number of cattle being dipped and sprayed preparatory to being turned out to pasturage in the northern states. The work is under the immediate charge of Edward M. Smith, inspector from the United States bureau of animal industry. The cattle now undergoing the process of dipping is a consignment from Texas and North and South Dakota. Ralph Mahon, superintendent of the yards, estimates the number daily handled as between 3,000 and 5,000 head. The dipping season opened about the first of May and will continue until the latter part of July. The dip and spray are used because of compulsory legislation by Congress and lately by the laws of Wyoming and the Dakotas. It is claimed that the processes heal and prevent what is known among herds as "scabies," which is a rash appearing on the hide of the animal. The national laws require that all cattle affected with scabies be sprayed or dipped before being shipped. Cattle not so affected are exempt from treatment. The laws of Wyoming and Dakota have gone further and require that all cattle be dipped or sprayed, so that not a carload of cattle is shipped into the above states without a certificate from a United States inspector that they have been dipped or sprayed within ten days. The dipping is the more common of the two processes. The cattle are submerged into a vat containing a composition of soap, oil and water, after which, if they are free from scabs, they are allowed to stand from six to ten hours, and are then shipped to their destination. If the cattle are affected with scabies they must undergo a second dipping after two years. The dipping vat and one sprayer have been in operation for two years, but, owing to the large number of cattle being shipped here for treatment, the second sprayer was installed and put in operation a few days ago. At present the yards are the best equipped in the region west of the Mississippi. Boat Turns Turtle Guernsey, Wyo.—Archie Sheldon, a young man from Galloway, Nebraska, was drowned in the North Platte near this place, and another man had a narrow escape from death. Sheldon's body has not been recovered. Sheldon was crossing the river in a ferry boat operated by an aged resident of the valley, and when near the center of the stream the craft turned turtle and the men were left struggling in the water. The accident was witnessed by persons on the bank, who attempted to rescue both men, but succeeded only in reaching the old man. BENGAL TIGER KILLS BABY Infurilated Beast Breaks From Its Cage and Creates Panic at Circus. Twin Falls, Idaho—During the afternoon performance of the Sells-Floto circus in this city May 25th, a great Bengal tiger broke from his cage in the menagerie tent and charged into the crowd, killing a four-year-old girl, a shetland pony, and mauling several other spectators and ponies before it was shot and killed by a man in the audience. Colorado Statesman's Tenth Annual For a moment a panic was threatened in the menagerie. Women screamed and fainted, the elephants tugged at their chains and trumpeted wildly, and there was great commotion until the tiger rolled over dead in front of the main entrance. PICNIC "Market," the tiger, and his mate, "Agnes," had been restless for some time before the accident. They were about to be fed, and at the sight of the meat "Market" beat furiously with his paws on the door of his cage. The door gave way and the tiger sprang from his cage to the neck of a shetland pony, fifteen feet away. The animal's keeper seized an iron bar and struck the tiger between the eyes. "Market" released his grip on the pony's neck and leaped to the back of another pony. Again the keeper felled him with the iron, and he relinquished his hold on the second pony, only to seize a third. Another stiff blow of the iron drove the tiger from his prey and he leaned into the crowd. The tent was well filled and the people fled in every direction, most of them crowding out under the canvas. One woman scrambled to the top of an animal cage and refused to come down until long after the tiger was killed. "Market" headed for the main entrance forty feet away. In his rush he struck several people with his shoulders, knocking them down. Mrs. C. E. Rozell of Twin Falls, and her little daughter, Ruth, could not escape the tiger's rush and were borne to the ground. The tiger held Mrs. Rozell with his paws and sank his fangs into the neck of the child, mangleing her so that she died two hours later. J. W. Bell, a Twin Falls blacksmith, was standing beside Mrs. Rozell when she was attacked. His wife and children were with him and at the mercy of the beast. Thrusting his family aside, bell drew a 32-calibre revolver and opened fire on the tiger at a distance of three feet. The first bullet struck "Market" behind the shoulder; he winced and opened his jaws, growing viciously and lashing his tail. The second bullet caused him to release Mrs. Rozell and her daughter from the grasp of his paws, and the third put him on the run. Bell followed her heroically, firing three more bullets into the fleeing tiger as it ran outside the tent. Will eclipse all other outing events to be offered the people of Denver and Surrounding Country this season. The past is a criterion for the future, for the great popularity of our Annual Holiday is as wide as the state in which we live. The people will take a day off to enjoy themselves with us this year, as they have done in the past, and we will provide for them a better entertainment and a happier time. Bloomfield Park is "Market" was sorely hurt, but managed to crawl some distance before he collapsed. Recovering his strength for an instant, the tiger turned and started back toward the stampeding spectators. Bell was waiting for the attack with his revolver reloaded, but the big beast had enough, and rolled over, snarling and biting at his wounds, and expired in a few moments. DENVER'S IDEAL PICNICGROUNDS Miners Meet Tragic Death. Central City, Colo.—Two miners met tragic deaths in Gilpin county, while a third was dangerously injured and perhaps blinded for life. While tamping in the second of fourteen charges of dynamite in the 1,600-foot level of the Old Town mine in Russell gulch the charge exploded instantly killing Charles Engdahl and badly mangling his machine partner, Peter Anderson.. A third man had just left the face of the drift. Part of Anderson's injuries are about his face, and it is feared his eyesight has been ruined. It combines numerous advantages over any other place in the city or in the state. It embraces a large beautiful lake and a fine large grove. The tramway cars run direct to the park every fifteen minutes, day and night. Engdahl was fifty-four years old and is survived by a wife. He went to work for the first time in a month, having been laying off on account of sickness. Free Hammocks Anderon recently sent his wife and child back to Sweden, where he expected to follow shortly, with the intention of making his permanent home in that country. The Day's Attractions Will Consist of Joe Cristella, an Austrian miner, also lost his life by gas at the Tucker mine in Chase gulch. He was mucking out after the machine men. When quitting time came and he did not respond to the signal, the top men became alarmed and went down below and discovered that there was bad air in that portion of the mine. After several attempts at rescue the body was finnally recovered, showing that Cristella had made several attempts to escape. Outdoor Sports, Boating and Other Recreations. Get Your Baskets Ready and Join Our Great Midsummer Diversion Wonderful Transvaal. For the first four months of 1907 the Transvaal produced 2,106,696 ounces of gold valued at $43,545,406, showing an increase of $8,008,094, or about twenty-two per cent, as compared with the corresponding period in 1906, says Mining World. Supposing the increase for the whole year to be twenty per cent., the Transvaal would show a production of about $143,000,000 for 1907. Within the next two or three years that country should, under normal conditions, produce $200,000,000 in gold. There are five so-called great gold mines which are earning from thirty-eight to sixty-five per cent. in profits on ore that averages from $8.09 to $14.10 per ton. Referring to American mines, the Homestake of South Dakota, before the fire, was earning twenty-nine per cent on ore averaging $3.85 per ton. The Camp Bird of Colorado earns profits of seventy-seven per cent. on are averaging $39.80 per ton. The Esperanza mine in Mexico, which is classed as the sixth great gold property in the world, is earning approximately fifty-nine per cent. in profits on ore averaging $33.08 per ton. Its dividends amount to $6,233,400 on a capitalization of $2,275,000. The chief factor in the development of dividend-paying gold mines has been the intelligent advancement shown in the treatment of low grade and complex ores.

THE death of Mrs. Ida McKinley, widow of the martyred President, at her home in Canton, Ohio, on May 26th, recalls the attention of the Nation to the beautiful features of the family life which was the domestic beacon light for Americans during the six years that William McKinley was President. Stirring, pushing events, crowding thick upon one another, have carried the strictly political and administrative features of William McKinley's term of office into the shadow of history, but the tender story of mutual devotion which wove its thread into the hearts of the American people was permanently enshrined; it followed his bier to Canton; it hovered about the lonely companion left behind, and rested upon the homestead, and now at her death it seems just as tender and just as lasting as when both were alive. Doubtless it is the legacy for which Americans will remember them longest and love them most. GETTING HOMES THE increasing frequency with which we can note the purchase of comfortable homes by Denver's colored citizens is a source of great gratification and encouragement to all who realize the wisdom of such a course. If we would more generally take the heart, the advice arising out of the experiences of the older citizens we would improve our opportunities far more than we do at present. While the chance to make a fortune quickly in real estate is not, and probably never will be again, what it once was, it is almost a certainty that every careful investment in residential property, no matter how far out it may be located, will bring the investor reward in the way of comfort and independence, such as no other form of investment is apt to bring. Denver is growing and will continue to grow for many years, and even if the value of suburban real estate increases but slowly, increase it must to some extent, while fortunate purchasers may see their properties increase in value by leaps. But the importance of owning a home is not confined to the possibility of its increasing in value. Home owners are recognized as representing a more solid citizenship than the tenant class, while the comfort and interest which one finds in his own property increases with his years. And it is possible for every steady wage earner to buy a home. A little frugality, a little sacrifice of idle pleasures, a little saving, and a determination to be boss of a little plot of your own, and in a few years the work is achieved. Some of our leading property owners made every dollar of their first investments working as janitors or laborers. They have insured comfort, self-reliance and respect to themselves and their families, and they realize with no little satisfaction the wisdom of their earlier efforts. TROUBLE WITH THE COOKS. WE are indebted to the Cooks' union of Denver for a definition of its particular brand of prescription which it keeps bottled and on ice to be specially served out to colored knights of the range who seek fraternal affiliations. A colored cook, who is a member of the national body, recently applied for admission to the local branch, probably because he is living and working here, and his application was promptly denied. A lawyers aid was sought to emphasize what the colored member considers his rights, when the local union explained that their national body makes no discrimination against colored members and grants them charter rights for local unions, but the local body here reserved control of its membership and denied the colored brothers only the right to affiliate in their meetings (for which enjoyment he would have to go to Missouri or Texas, where there are branches of his complexion), but they would protect their swarthy compatriot in all of his relations in business, as a subject of the national body. In other words, they want the colored mans moral support, but object to his bodily presence "in their midst." The local union, regardless of the fact that it is a branch of a national, corporate body, has fixed this point up to its satisfaction in its constitution. The colored member seems to have a good legal case against the local body. But why push it? The Cooks' union, like all the other unions, don't care a picayune for the colored brother except as it becomes necessary to avoid the danger of his opposition. Some unions placate him for this reason alone and then push him off the stage of action. The practice of going where one is actually not wanted at all is questionable, if not foolish. The continued severance of industrial relations between white men and black men for mere reasons of prejudice will hurt the white men in the long run more than it will hurt the colored men. Colored cooks are no exception to the rule. Their special competency will support them in any general test. Labor unions don't know the value of a colored man half as well as the people who are in the habit of employing him. We are stoutly of the opinion that he will do best by sticking to those who best appreciate him. THE NEGRO BRAIN. WE learn from the New Orleans Times-Democrat that Dr. Robert C. Bean of Baltimore has been investigating the Negro brain for a long time, and that he has reached and published the scientific conclusion that the Negro has fewer brain cells and a considerably smaller brain than the European, particularly the Anglo-Saxon, and that he is incapable of producing those thoughts which have built up civilization; that he is incapable of higher education, and, above all, that he does not comprehend the use of the ballot. The Fourteenth and Fifteenth amendments to the National Constitution, therefore, were errors, etc. Of course the doctor has been examining dead Negroes' brains. It goes without saying that he has not undertaken to apply the test to Negroes who are alive and wide awake. There are some Negro doctors in this country who can give the Baltimore physician a few pointers on brains. There are some Negro scholars who can make Doctor Bean acknowledge that his own brain is addled. And there are some Negro editors who have too much sense to print such silly rot as that to which the Times-Democrat gives leading space on its editorial page. Generally speaking, the Negro brain is undeveloped. It does not take a scientise nor a doctor to tell you that you cannot make a leader of civilization out of a slave in a day. But if the progress of an emancipated and enfranchised race in forty years is any indication of its capabilities, Doctor Bean would do better to apply his investigations to a method for increasing the number of Anglo-Saxon brain cells per capita if he would insure cerebral supremacy to his race throughout the future. Goodness or Efficiency Which Shall It Be? By WILLIAM H. ALLEN, Gen. Agent N. Y. Association for Improving Condition of Poor, and Author of "Efficient Democracy." etc. O be efficient is more difficult than to be good. The average citizen honestly in favor of what he calls good government does not yet understand that there are an intelligence and an efficiency as far beyond the reach of mere goodness as is business efficiency beyond the reach of mere good intention. T To test the goodness of a citizen, trustee or public official requires more than human judgment. Efficiency can and should be tested by those who benefit when it is present and suffer when it is lacking. Efficiency fosters goodness as time clock and cash register foster habits of punctuality and honesty. The goodness that has lasting value to one's fellow-man will be greatly increased and more widely distributed if efficiency tests are applied to all persons and all agencies that are trying to make to-morrow better than to-day. The most important ingredient of efficiency is desire to know. The socialism of intelligence is within easy reach. It is probable that when common intelligence is achieved the disquieting socialism of capital will have less cogent reasoning to support it. The particular kind of intelligence needed by democracy is intelligence as to government and not intelligence as to ethics, fiction, law and business. A man may be a walking dictionary, living encyclopaedia, bacteria wizard, or virtue personified, and yet not intelligent as to government. Given 100 so-called best citizens in a church parlor and 100 frequenters of a Bowery saloon, and it would be a rash man who would feel sure that the average intelligence as to government, its needs, its justice, its methods, was higher in the parlor than in the saloon. In nearly all lines of business, in housekeeping, in certain branches of hospital, school and church work, it is already realized that good service means efficient service, that an honest man who is inefficient can do more to defeat the purpose for which he is employed than a dishonest man compelled by intelligent supervision to render efficient service. So far as this principle is accepted efficiency tests are substituted for goodness tests. Where standards of administration are unsatisfactory; where taxes are too high and buy too little; where schools waste taxpayers' money, pupils' time and democracy's opportunity; where results of religious work are disappointing; where hospitals regularly incur deficits; where crime is neither controlled nor understood; where civic and educational leaders make futile protests against political corruption; where good intention is permitted to cover a multitude of administrative sins; where charity injures those it aims to help—efficiency tests will be found lacking. Multiply the God of Sociability By PROF. CHARLES ZUEBLIN. University of Chicago. Sociability is life and the lack of it is death. Lack of sociability, which really means fellowship or the touch of nature that makes the whole world kin, leads to exclusiveness, and we all know that exclusiveness means degeneracy, decay and death for the type and ultimately for the race. The testimony of the rich is conclusive on this point. They become exclusive because of their wealth, and we have the testimony of the greatest of the world's millionaires that material wealth alone is not satisfying. Extreme wealth and extreme poverty are the greatest evils in the world—unless death is to be classed as greater than either. Nature, being itself the mother of bounty, abhors great wealth and great poverty. And it should be the first care of society—otherwise the state—to aid nature in abolishing the vacuum of great wealth, as well as the vacuum of great poverty. It is one of the appalling evils of our great commonwealth that our method of adjusting the relations of poverty and wealth is so conspicuous a failure that it has fallen below the standards of the aborigines, being inferior to that of the red Indians. Society, through its organized form, the state, should see to it that the material and spiritual wants of all are reasonably satisfied. We could breed a vastly better human race if there were public institutions to make easier the social meetings of young persons of the two sexes, with the inevitable consequence—matrimony. Our blind exclusiveness militates against the sociological idea of investing Cupid with robes of state. Extension of the state institutional idea to the domain of marriage promotion would be one of the greatest reforms known to mankind, and its realization appears to be an inevitable outcome of social evolution. A state institution of this kind would aid in restoring nature's equilibrium by bringing together the extremely rich and the extremely poor, or at least giving them an opportunity for sociability. No human trait in the world exceeds in excellence and pleasurable possibilities the trait or gift of sociability. If, like Santa Claus, sociability could be infinitely multiplied as a godlike personality, then pushed through chimneys into countless millions of homes and compelled to remain a guest in each family for months at a time, the world and the human race would be made infinitely better. Although the Bulaba-Lulua language is remarkably rich in some directions, it shows a no less remarkable paucity of terms in other directions. By REV. W. M. MGRRISON. Author of Grammar and Dictionary of the Buluba- Lulu Language as Spoken in the Upper Kassai and Congo Basin, Africa. For example, there is no word for the young of living creatures—the indefinite muana, child, is used for all alike. There is no single word for brother, sister or mother-in-law. The native recognizes only three distinct colors—red, white and black; there is nothing for green or yellow or mauve, or saffron-pink. The verb dila is made to do service for cry, bawl, bleat, squeal, sing, roar, preach, croak, argue, bray, lecture or tick (as a watch). There are no pronouns indicating sex. There is no satisfactory word for love. The same word which the native uses for God's love he must also use to express his liking for salt, or his preference for a certain kind of blanket. Sometimes one fairly cries out in agony for a word to replace some of the strong English terms like ought, duty, must, obligation, graft, etc. --- A SILK SALE --- Great June Silk Carnival.

ONCE THE PATH WAS SMOOTH. Discard That Old Adage About the Course of True Love. A remarkable wedding has lately taken place at Naples, remarkable because of the extreme youth and alertness of the happy couple. When Celestino Glordano, aged 15, with Gicella Nappi, his chosen bride, went to the registry office to be married, the commissioner was very loath to perform the ceremony, for the pair had not reached the age limit prescribed by the civil code. The young folks had evidently expected to have to overcome difficulties to their union, for while the commissioner was hesitating as to what he should do, they sprang a surprise on him and settled the matter by producing a royal decree of dispensation, which they had obtained direct from the king. This being proved genuine the children were joined to wedlock in the presence of their parents and a large gathering of interested spectators. Ghosts of Dead Lakes.

Rivers still flow down to the dry edge of these one-time great reservoirs and are licked up by evaporation and the chinook winds. Of all the lakes that once lay there, only Great Salt Lake. Lake Tahoe and Bear Lake are left. The Southern Pacific rolls for 165 miles across the bed of what was once Lake Lahontan, and the passengers gazing idly from the windows may see the terraces and wrinkles in the crust of the fossil lake which nature robbed and defrauded of its crystal treasures ages ago.—Exchange. Her Answer. "Now, children," said the kindergarten teacher, "I have explained to you how many trees give us food, in the way of fruit, and in other ways. You remember that I said man taps the maple trees to get maple sirup. Where does the tapioca come from, then?" "I guess," said Olive, after a pause, "that you tap the oaks, don't you?"—Judge. DR. TALKS OF FOOD Pres. of Board of Health "What shall I eat?" is the daily inquiry the physician is met with. I do not hesitate to say that in my judgment, a large percentage of disease is caused by poorly selected and improperly prepared food. My personal experience with the fully-cooked food, known as Grape-Nuts, enables me to speak freely of its merits. "From overwork, I suffered several years with malnutrition, palpitation of the heart, and loss of sleep. Last summer I was led to experiment personally with the new food, which I used in conjunction with good rich cow's milk. In a short time after I commenced its use, the disagreeable symptoms disappeared, my heart's action became steady and normal, the functions of the stomach were properly carried out and I again slept as soundly and as well as in my youth. "I look upon Grape-Nuts as a perfect food, and no one can gainssay but that it has a most prominent place in a rational, scientific system of feeding. Any one who uses this food will soon be convinced of the soundness of the principle upon which it is manufactured and may thereby know the facts as to its true worth."

HAD A NON-UNION DAUGHTEF Boise Correspondent Thinks That Attorney Darrow Isn't Doing the Square Thing in Examining Jurymen. Boise, Idaho.—His name was Harmon Cox. He had fought through the war from beginning to end. His shoulders were stooped with years but his frame was massive and vigorous and his mind active. The button of the Grand Army of the Republic glinted on his lapel. He had faced bloody death on the battlefield many times. He sat in the back row of the jurors' chairs in the court room, his long gray beard hanging on his chest like the sporran of a Highlander's kilt. The prosecution had passed him for cause. He was a reasonable man and just, and he would make a good juror, but the defense did not want him at all. There had been a sort of strike lately in the office of the local telephone company. It did not amount to a great deal. The "hello!" girls had gone out. Other girls had taken their places. The daughter of Harmon Cox, soldier of the Grand Army, was one of them. Thebefore Harmon Cox was not wanted by the defense. He had to be got rid of, and Clarence Darrow was to get rid of him. The defense had only two peremptory challenges left. They were priceless, beyond rubies. So Clarence Darrow had to prove Harmon Cox so biased and prejudiced against "the defendant Haywood" that he could not sit on the jury. Darrow is a very unconventional person. He has been already permitted by the court to do many things that other men never attempt. So he sat on the counsel's table before the double line of jurors' chairs and crossed his feet and spun his eyeglasses between his fingers and looked steadily at Harmon Cox of the Grand Army, with dull eyes under peculiar brows. For some discernible minutes the silence in the court room was heavy. The shades over the windows were drawn down. The lights in the room were dim. And the lawyer of the defense commenced in a low, steady voice to prove out of his own mouth that Harmon Cox of the Grand Army was a liar when he said that he had no prejudice of any kind against the defendant. And Clarence Darrow failed. He failed rather lamentably, too. He asked Harmon Cox question after question. He made speeches at him, he suggested things that never were in the mind of the juror at all, and tried to convict him of holding them and when he found it quite impossible to prove that Harmon Cox was unfit for a juror he lost his temper, his face grew gray and damp with sweat; his voice grew husky. He did not cut any longer the pathetic and heroic figure he has been cutting ever since the case commenced. He came into futile conflict with the court, and the conflict brushed him. He came into conflict with Borah of the prosecution and Borah stung him time and time again, quickly, cleverly, mercilessly. For a moment Harmon Cox of the Grand Army was forgotten to watch the two chief men who will fight this case in their first grips. And the honors were all Borah's. Cool, collected, smiling, an untroubled man of the world, pollished, scholarly and alert, he faced Darrow and met his verbal assault and parried it and sidestepped and slammed in stinging and burning retorts that maddened Darrow and left him speechless. It was a contest of civilization against the cave-man, and civilization won. If it had been a fight with bare knuckles or light gloves instead of a contest of brains and with words, Clarence Darrow of Chicago would have been "counted out" in the first round. He did not succeed in disqualifying Harmon Cox; he lost his self-control. He came out of the conflict with Borah a sadly beaten gladiator and all his "brother" counsel" of the defense turned their backs upon him and stared angrily at the wall. It was a picturesque and dramatic episode, and by it one caught a vivid glimpse of the battle that will rage when this case actually begins. Denver Mint Being Investigated. Washington. — According to the rough draft of the report made by the commission appointed by the President to investigate the Denver mint, a condition has been found which may result in the removal of one or more prominent heads from the Colorado institution. The coinage department, which is under the direction of Harry Tarbell, is said to have shown a lack of thoroughness, and several times coins have been found to be much heavier or lighter than the law prescribes. On whose shoulders the blame will finally rest remains to be seen, but it is reported that the coinage department is responsible for these discrepancies and that removals will be made soon. Director of the Mint Roberts refuses to discuss the report until after the secretary of the treasury has been seen and is ready to make his recommendations. The Denver mint has been investigated thoroughly in all its branches. While, technically, only one issue of coins was found to be off in weight, the commission did not stop its inquiry with this one issue, but has looked into every department. Colorado-Kansas Water Case. Washington.—On behalf of the state of Kansas, Sollicitor General Hoyt entered a motion in the Supreme Court of the United States for leave to file a petition for a rehearing in the Kansas-Colorado case, which was decided by the court two weeks ago in the interest of Colorado. In a Few Weeks Denver May Talk to New York Over 'iPhone Within a few.weeks by the completing of the long distance telephone line now being built between Emporia, Kansas and Pueblo, Colorado, residents of Denver will be enabled to call their friends in New York and Boston to the telephone and carry on a conversation with them over a telephone circuit more than 3,000 miles in length, as easily as they can now talk with people in Colorado Springs, only eighty miles away. The completion of this new line marks an epoch in telephone construction, since it supplies the last remaining link in the chain of telephone connections between the West and the extreme East. The eastern lines have pushed as far west as Emporia, Kansas, and when the Colorado Telephone Company extended its lines to Pueblo, Colorado, it left only a gap of 500 miles to be filled out in order to reach Denver and to complete the longest telephone circuit in the world. Now two gangs of men, working at both ends, the first building at the rate of three miles a day, the second at a rate of two miles a day, have reached positions just north of Lakin, Kansas, and a few miles east of La Junta, Colorado, with a little more than 100 miles between them. Most of the serious obstacles have been passed, so that from now on progress will be rapid and before July 1st, the two gangs will meet near the state line. A part of the pole line—about 150 miles of the portion immediately west of Emporia—has already been strung with a pair of bright copper wires and after the last pole has been set only a few weeks will be required in which to cover the remaining portion of the line with wires, so that by August 1st, at the latest, through telephone connection will be provided by means of a pair of copper wires between Denver and any of the Eastern cities. The poles are all of the best northern cedar, sound and straight, with a minimum height of twenty-five feet and carry creosoted crossarms having an ultimate capacity of ten wires. When the poles are placed; space is provided for an additional crossarm so that the capacity of the line may be doubled at any time in the future with the least possible expense and trouble. Woman's Bad Marksmanship. Rawlins, Wyo.—The old adage that the average woman can neither shoot straight nor throw a stone with any degree of accuracy was more than demonstrated this morning when Mrs. J. M. Ringwood shot two innocent bystanders in trying to save her husband from a beating. One of the bystanders, Webb Stone, received a bullet in the left breast and died within an hour, while the other was shot in the thigh and seriously wounded. Mrs. Ringwood, her husband and the latter's partner, Harkins, with whom he was fighting, are in jail. Ringwood and Harkins, who own and operate the Bank Exchange restaurant and saloon, became involved in a quarrel over charges of cheating made by Ringwood. Daniel Harkins resented the accusation and the two agreed to fight it out. The men were fighting when Mrs. Ringwood appeared. Believing her husband was getting the worst of it and thinking he was about to be killed by Harkins, she seized a 38-calliber revolver from a shelf and began firing at Harkins. All of the bullets went wild, one entering the left lung of Webb Stone near the heart, and another lodging in the thigh of James Davis, a-waiter in the restaurant. Stone was seated at a table waiting to be served by Davis when he was shot. He and Davis were watching the fight, but did not offer to mix in it. Mrs. Ringwood became hysterical while being taken to the jail and screamed all the way. Another Sugar Factory. Pueblo, Colo.-Plans have been drawn for a new sugar factory at Wiley, Colo., ten miles north of Lamar, which will cost $1,000,000 and will have a capacity of 700 tons. Work on the plant will be started next fall and the factory will be completed in time to handle the crop of 1908. There are at present 70,000 acres planted in beets in the Arkansas valley and the five factories now in operation are unable to take proper care of the immense crop. During the past season the five factories were unable to handle the crop within six months, and as a consequence a great part of the sugar was lost from the beets, which had dried out while waiting to be treated. The waste caused by this delay makes it necessary that other factories be built, and the new plant to be erected at Wiley is a start in that direction. The beet tonnage of the valley last year was 700,000, but as fast as other factories are built the acreage is increased, and the business men who make regular trips to the valley declare that factories can not be built fast enough for several years to come. Unknown Man Killed. Denver.—In a fight that seemingly started over some trivial matter, but in which, in all probability, a woman is involved, Fremont Driemus, a Mexican, aged twenty-one, shot and killed an unknown man of the same nationality. The shooting occurred in the alley between Twenty-first and Twenty-second, Blake and Wazee streets. A few minutes before it happened, the two men were seen walking up the street together. They turned into the alley, and a few minutes later attention was called to them by their loud talking. From the statement of witnesses, it is learned that the unknown man threw Driemus to the ground, and, while he had him in a prostrate position, drew his revolver and attempted to shoot him. Driemus, however, wrested the weapon from him and, using it in his own defense, shot his assailant through the heart. HANOKERCHIEF NOVELTIES. Novel Designs Complementing the Season's Dress Fabrics. The subject of handkerchiefs is an unusually interesting one this season. Here, as in every other accessory of woman's costuming, novelty presents itself in the most fascinating gulses. It is the colored handkerchief, strange as it may seem, which claims first place; and this too, with the smartest dressers. The old prejudice against the handkerchief carrying even the slightest suggestion of color has been entirely forgotten, and by those, too, whose exclusive tastes permitted in the old days the selection of only the neatest hemstitched and most unobstruusive embroidered pure white affairs. These new affairs are absolutely irresistible in their dainty colorings and designs. The linen is of the finest, and the designs the most artistic. The Japanese tendency which dominates the costume world is traceable in many of the best designs. The majority of these handkerchief novelties have a narrow colored hem in pink, blue, green or yellow, in the palest tint. Some show border effects in conventionized flower designs, the flower centers a bit of delicate hand embroidery executed in finest cotton or linen threads. Clusters of thy diamonds, polka-dots and squares in one or two colors alternate inside of the colored hem, with embroidery dots usually in white, though sometimes in color. Then there are the plaid handkerchiefs, with and without a plain-colored hem. These are more often in two-tone effects, and show a bit of fine handwork in a corner design in the form of a tiny flower spray in the place of the initial. Initial handkerchiefs, by the way, are still good style, but they come only in the plain whites, and not in novelty colored affairs. Some very pretty patterns show the colored printings in corner and border designs, embroidered over with tiny dots, and naturally the more embroidery these handkerchiefs carry the higher they are marked in price. Another novelty shown among the most exclusive patterns has the daintiest finish imaginable in the form of a very narrow lace edge, hand-made lace, by the way. These, of course, are more or less expensive, but the clever and ingenious girl may buy the plain handkerchiefs and set on the lace herself with very gratifying results, both as to effect and price. Polka-dots are well represented, doubtless because of the prominence given this design in dress fabrics this season. Checks also are not without favor, so the summer girl will find little difficulty in matching her dainty frocks with handkerchiefs, complementing them in both color and design. HOUSEHOLD HINTS To prevent white fabrics, such as tulle or silk evening gowns, lace or crepe shawls, becoming yellow when packed away, sprinkle bits of white wax freely among the folds. Macaroni or rice, if placed in a colander after cooking and rinsed with cold water, will not stick together in a solid mass, as it is otherwise inclined to do. The rice can be put into the oven for a moment afterward to reheat. Wallpaper which is not stained in any way, but simply soiled by dust or smoke, can be cleaned by the simple means of oatmeal. This should be applied with a piece of flannel, the whole surface of the wall being gone over by degrees. In case of a tiled floor, a little linseed oil rubbed in, and the tiles subsequently polished, brings up the colors wonderfully. In dust there lurks the deadly bacillus, and the woman who wraps her head in a handkerchief or cap, arms herself with a feather duster, and proceeds to whisk it airily over ornaments and pictures is not only doing an unreasonable thing, but is actually doing harm. Here is a recipe for hygienic dusting: When you go to dust a room have three dusters. One must be damp, a chamois leather is preferable. Pass the damp duster over the furniture, when the dust will cling to it, and not float in the air. Make a beautiful polish with the two dry dusters; the damp duster can be rinsed out of water and wrung tightly as often as you please. Offer Work to Prisoners. The Japanese have offered to let their Russian prisoners work at building a harbor at Matsuyama, to "pass the time" and earn the usual wages, with which they will be able to buy themselves luxuries during their imprisonment.

Gautier, a French explorer, is Authority for the statement that the Sahara is continuously becoming drier to such an extent that the oases are perceptibly drying up and will disappear altogether in a relatively short time. He quotes historic records and physical signs to show that springs were at one time more plentiful than now, and that the extent of the patches where vegetation flourishes were much greater even 50 to 100 years ago. As the climate of the region has undergone no change in perhaps thousands of years, he believes that the disappearance of the water must be due to purely mechanical causes. He considers that it is due to the continual advance of the great sand masses to the north, thus forming an impenetrable barrier against the watershed of the Atlas mountains.—N. X. Sun.

General Breakdown Caused by Deficient Blood Quickly Corrected by This Tonic Remedy. A feeling of general weakness, poor appetite, loss of breath after the slightest exercise and broken sleep are some of the symptoms of general debility. You may think that they have no relation to each other and that you will worry along, hoping all the time to feel better soon. This is a mistake, for every one of the symptoms is caused by bad blood, which must be made pure and new before health will be restored again. A tonic treatment is necessary and for this purpose there is no better remedy than Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. Mr. J. G. Havey, of 95 Willow St., Chelsea, Mass., says: "I was sick for a number of years from general debility and indigestion. I was never free from stomach trouble and my nerves were so shattered that the least excitement unfitted me for any serious work. My sleep was restless on account of terrible pains in the small of my back. These pains would sometimes last for a month or two. My sight grew weak, there seeming to be a blur constantly before my eyes. I couldn't concentrate my mind on my work, and the attempt to do so completely exhausted me. "I was finally forced to give up a position I had held for twenty-eight years. After trying several medicines without help, I read of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills and gave them a trial. They made me feel so much better and so much stronger that I started in business for myself here in Chelsea. I have never had a return of my former sickness and cheerfully recommend Dr. Williams' Pink Pills as an excellent nerve and blood tonic." Dr. Williams' Pink Pills have long been recognized as an excellent tonic remedy in cases of indigestion and general debility, where the stomach and other organs of the body are weakened and disordered simply through lack of proper nourishment. They have also been especially successful in curing anemia, rheumatism, after-effects of the grip and fevers.

At a meeting of the Tri-County Fair Association, comprising Pitkin, Gar field and Eagle counties, the old officers were re-elected—W. S. Copeland, president, and Charles Dailley, secretary. October 1st, 2d, 3d and 4th was selected as the time of giving the fair. A large executive committee to make arrangements was appointed. About half of the thirty resorts fined for violating the Sunday closing ordinance were closed at Silverton. The other half remained open, as was their usual custom. The Italians, in trying to resent the action of the enforcement of the law bought several kegs of beer on Blair street and imbibed freely of the liquor in open air. Frank White, colored, became enraged at Scott Williams, another negro, in a ball game at Colorado Springs and, it is said, struck him on the head with a stone, inflicting serious wounds. White tried to make his escape and was pursued by a mob of 200. He was caught while hiding under the bed in a rooming house and was arrested. The jury in the Samuel Shawcross case at Cripple Creek, after being locked up for twenty-two hours reported inability to agree and was discharged by District Judge Morris. The defendant was charged with larceny of precipitates and zinconda shavings worth $1,000 from the Anaconda mills. The defendant was released on $2,500 bond pending a new trial. Tuesday afternoon, June 4th, will witness the last baseball game of the season on the Gamble field, when the Colorado College team and a nine representing the University of Colorado will play an exhibition game. The event is right in the middle of commencement week and a number of the members of the alumni as well as the friends of the university will be present to witness the contest. The Eaton sugar factory is adding a molasses silo to its equipment. The silo will be 90 by 100-feet on the outside and 10 feet deep in the clear, allowing a storage capacity for 7,200 cubic feet of molasses. The molasses is made from the residue after sugar making. The factory will also build a large boarding house with modern conveniences for its employees. Some interesting records of the prices which Colorado fed lambs have brought in Chicago have just been given out. These records show that for three days three states were represented in the top price marks. These states were Colorado, Wyoming and Minnesota. Wyoming lambs topped the market four times, Minnesota twice and Colorado twenty-seven times. Colorado lambs also brought an average price of $8.70, at least 10 cents more than the other prices.

There was so much ceremony connected with a church cornerstone laying in New York city a few weeks ago that the moving picture machine man felt warranted to take a couple of miles of photographs. These pictures proved to be very good, and large crowds were delighted with the exact reproduction of the dedicatory exercises. "I like the moving pictures better than I did the original service," confessed a prominent member of the congregation. "You do," gasped a devout elder. "I'm surely pained to hear you say so. Why should you prefer the pictures?" "Because the picture man" answered the prominent member, pleasantly, "cut out all the sermons." BABY ITCHED TERRIBLY. Face and Neck Covered with Inflamed Skin—Doctors No Avail—Cured by Cuticura Remedies. "My baby's face and neck were covered with itching skin similar to eczema, and she suffered terribly for over a year. I took her to a number of doctors, and also to different colleges, to no avail. Then Cuticura Remedies were recommended to me by Miss G—I did not use it at first, as I had tried so many other remedies without any favorable results. At last I tried Cuticura Soap, Cuticura Ointment and Cuticura Resolvent Pills, and to my surprise noticed an improvement. After using three boxes of the Cuticura Ointment, together with the Soap and Pills, I am pleased to say she is altogether a different child and the picture of health. Mrs. A. C. Brestlin, 171 N.

He Comes In With the New Law—Paul Morton on His Opportunity. The new insurance law of the State of New York has opened up a promising field for both men and women with brains and energy in the sale of life insurance. The law now provides standard forms of policies, each of which practically bears the hall mark of the State of New York, and this new order of things has established the sale of life insurance on a correct basis. The prohibition against rebating and extravagant allowances to agents has driven out of the business the old type of insurance agent, who in many cases virtually bought business, with large rebates, instead of selling it. His place is being taken by professors, lawyers, school teachers of both sexes, and others, who find that being a life insurance agent under the new system offers greater reward than their previous vocations. The law has reduced commissions but all of the commission now goes to the agent. Life insurance is something that everyone needs and under the present system its sale is being conducted with becoming dignity and propriety. Paul Morton, president of the Equitable Life Assurance Society, has taken the lead in building up an agency organization that is in keeping with the demands of public sentiment, and the standard he has set for his company. He says: "We want new agents, both men and women, but none except energetic, able and truthful people need apply. For such there is a splendid opportunity." Mr. Morton's policy of injecting new and vigorous blood into the agency force of the Society is meeting with success in all parts of the country. A Dig at Her.

WOMEN SUFFER Many women suffer in silence and drift along from bad to worse, knowing well that they ought to have immediate assistance. How many women do you know who are perfectly well and strong? The cause may be easily traced to some feminine derangement which manifests itself in depression of spirits, reluctance to go anywhere or do anything, backache, dragging sensations, fatulency, nervousness, and sleeplessness. These symptoms are but warnings that there is danger ahead, and unless heeded, a life of suffering or a serious operation is the inevitable result. The best remedy for all these symptoms is Vegetable Compound No other medicine in the country has qualified endorsement. No other medi- male ills.

On the other hand, stripes are in the full flood of favor, in every possible material; grey and white stripes and dull blue and white stripes are immensely fashionable and in many cases the striped materials are worked with plain-faced cloth in a particularly effective manner. made between helliotrope and blue dull pink and purple, puce and We wood, while a most admirable dress all of one tone takes a yellow shade, almost buff, and looks well under the influence of trimmings of the crochet lact to match. Feather boas are making their appearance, and are mostly shaded with two colors. Many reach to bust, others to the waist, and oth again to the knees, while tassels silk or feathers terminate them. Recently I saw a costume of this order carried out in dull shades of gray, with the best effects. The skirt which was round and fully gored, was made of the striped material, and there was a deep hem of plain cloth, headed by handsome braidings in a rather dark shade of gray. There was a very short coatée—which barely reached below the waist—with a sac back and double-breasted fronts; the coat itself was made of plain cloth, but the lower portion of the Kimono sleeves showed stripes, and there was a blouse of chalk white guipure inset with motifs of embroidered muslin. It was a most original-looking little gown, and was accompanied by a cloche of Tuscan straw, with dark gray velvet ribbons twisted round the crown and hanging in a bunch of ends at the right side, over the brim, and a clump of purple violets close to the front. A novel fabric which should claim considerable attention for the making of summer dresses, either in bodice and skirt style or Chinese coat and skirt fashion, is Tussore silk striped, producing admirable effects in mixtures of blue and white, and holland color and white, and mauve and white. I have seen these excellently made, and very simply trimmed with crossway bands of the same material, with the bodice or coat showing pendant tassels to match, the under-sleeves and the vest being of tucked lawn. Also I would hold a brief for plain Tussore, or Shantung, as the authorities have now elected to call it, while they have dyed it in every conceivable color, and also accept it with pleasure when it assumes its most natural aspect, a straw tint. No costume looks better than a plain Tussore ```markdown ``` An Exquisite Design in Voile Dress. gown well cut and simply made, crowned with a brown mushroom hat with a floating veil. I quote this as an example of successful simplicity, the coat or bodice of the gown being made to suit the individual figure goes without saying, since this should be a modish mandate of perennial popularity. The serious rival to Tussore silk is voile, which, however, not lending itself to be made into coats, needs must be relegated to bodices whose waists should be determined according to fancy. Many waists of voile gowns are cut low in front and high at the back, encircled with a broad belt, and very effective this is in combination with the wide sleeves, and decked to taste either with many frills or embroidery at the hem of the slightly gathered skirt. Good combinations of color will do much to stamp individuality on frocks of this pattern, and there are some all together adorable alliances being made between heliotrope and blue, dull pink and purple, puce and Wedge wood, while a most admirable voile dress all of one tone takes a yellowish shade, almost buff, and looks well under the influence of trimmings of thick crochet lact to match. Feather boas are making their re appearance, and are mostly shaded with two colors. Many reach to the bust, others to the waist, and others again to the knees, while tassels of silk or feathers terminate them, and velvet ribbons also sometimes do this decorative duty. Hats are being pushed further and further back, until there is as much hair to be seen from the forehead as from the nape of the neck; indeed, in many cases there is more to be seen at the front than the back. Such a state of affairs is by no means conducive to a trim outline, but it attains favor, and no doubt will continue to do so during the whole of this season. To such millinery I confess I do not pay that fealty which I usually bestow upon any fashion just for fashion's sake, for in truth I do not think it is becoming to one woman out of a thousand, and I am convinced that the other 999 will wear it with enthusiasm. The outline is open and low, the trimming pendant at the back, a wreath of flowers being most popular round the brim. And now a word concerning the dresses displayed in our pictures. In the larger illustration are shown two costumes, the one on the left being in the new banana colored Shanting silk, stripped faintly with red, and the other is of white chiffon pointed with trailing stripes of black ribbon, alternating with applique bands of narrow silver lace and finished off in true lover's knot bows where the whiteness of the chiffon merges into an encircling band of palest blue, patterned with shadowy pink roses, this in its turn being succeeded by a band of silver tissue veiled with a cobwebby black net and headed by folds of plain pink, and blue and silver, and a trail of tiny silken blossoms wrought in blue and pink silk. All this exquisite detail is repeated on the bodice, with the addition of some cobwebby lace, sundry silken and silver tassels, and a knot of black ribbon, catching in a long-stalked rose while a toque where quite a bouquet of pink roses against the hair in front, and three pale blue ostrich feathers curve over the back, is a worthy crown for an exquisite gown. The dress in our smaller illustration is one of the latest designs in voile and is both exquisite and graceful. "Toffee" as Made in England. It may be possible that there are some persons who grow old so thoroughly that they actually forget that they ever were children, but I can't help wondering if any man or woman ever lived to such an age as to become impervious to the delights of "toffee," or the butter scotch that has made Doncaster a household word to every civilized nation under the sun. Of course, you have eaten it—to the joy of your soul and to the detriment of your teeth—and, if you will promise not to repeat it, I will give you the secret recipe for this candy, for it is made nowhere as in England: Take three pounds of "coffee" or "C" sugar, butter to the amount of a pound and a quarter, with half a teaspoonful of cream of tarter. First dissolve the sugar in just as much cold water as may be required for that purpose, then mix all the ingredients together, and boll them, without stirring the mixture until it will snap when dropped into cold water. At this moment remove it from the fire; add eight or ten drops of lemon extract, according to its strength, and pour the mixture into well-greased pans to be cut into squares as it cools."—From Odds and Ends of Culinary Geography, by Miles Bradford in The Bohemian for January. Prune Salad. Prunes served as a salad are a novelty that is decidedly worth trying. The prunes, after cooling, are soaked in sherry and then candied with walnuts or pecans, put on the crispest, palest lettuce leaves and dressed with a dressing having twice the amount of lemon juice as it has oil, and mustard, celery salt and pepper. It's a delicious salad. FRENCH SHRINER & URNER EXTRA QUALITY. THE NEW ST NEW STORE FOR THE NEW STORE FOR MEN THE NEW STORE FOR MEN AT 621-623 16TH STREET. DOGGETT GARMEN 925-16TH ST.

The modern method of levee building is nowhere more scientifically demonstrated than in the St. Francis district. In the early days of levee building it was thought that any pile of dirt approximately so high and so wide and running approximately parallel with the river was good enough. The delusion cost thousands of dollars. To-day the site of the projected levee is carefully cleared of all trees, the very roots being grubbed out, because these would decay otherwise, leaving channels through the soil under the dyke through which sipe water would quickly undermine the struc ture. Down the center of the cleared site a trench, called technically a muck ditch, is dug, and in this puddled clay or buckshot is filled. Upon this the earth dug from barrow pits adjacent to the levee on the landward side is placed. It is not dumped helter-skelter, but carefully spread in layers giving the finished mound the maximum strength and solidity. These layers extend both laterally and longitudinally across the levee, binding it in every direction. The work of placing the dirt is done principally by means of wheelscrapers operated by mules. Under some circumstances small flatcars are used, propelled by a locomotive and bringing the earth from a greater distance. This is not often done except when continued rains have made the ground too soft for successful work with the teams—The World To-day. Sea of Oranges. A sea covered with oranges is one of the unusual attractions near Ventura, Cal., at the mouth of the Santa Clara river. Thousands upon thousands of oranges floating on the ocean's surface, many of them strewing the beach, give an indescribably beautiful golden hue to the sea. There are wonder for some time as to how the oranges got into the sea. The belief was general that they came from washed out orchards in the east end of the county, owing to the high storm waters in the river. This is not the case, however. The oranges were deliberately thrown into the Sespe creek from the Sespe bridge, 25 miles back from the coast. From the Sespe they found their way back into the Santa Clara river and thence into the sea. The oranges are from the great packing houses in the Sespe country. They are known as culls, but most of them are good, or were when dumped off the bridge. It is claimed that only the best oranges can be shipped and sold. The Invention of Armor. The idea of the invention of armor for the protection of the body from weapons came from the ancients, who, noticing the natural armor of various kinds of animals, particularly the armadillo, imitated it. In early times before metal was used in armor making the warriors used rough hides to several thicknesses, and the first armor ever worn was made from slices taken from the hoofs of horses and fastened together with pegs. Fish scales and the scales of large snakes were also gathered and fastened together until they formed a thick layer and were used as armor. The armor of the Middle Ages was a continuation of the ancient kind, made in the form of scales of iron or steel. Certain kinds of mall used in early times in England were copied from the shells of crabs and lobsters. —Sunday Magazine. Taffeta-Tipped Cigarettes. There's a new cigarette starling women in the face. Instead of having a cork tip it is tipped with the finest quality of taffeta silk. The monogram matches the silk in color and the whole affair is so attractive that the beholder doesn't wonder why women take to smoking. Even ultra-conservative, old-fashioned matrons have felt constrained to admit that the little cylinders were pretty. Since it has been learned that the Colloy club, most exclusive of women's organizations, permits women smoking, apparently many humbler sisters have acquired a longing to puff. Lessons in Tree Planting. What a lesson for the child is the simple planting of a tree! It is first a lesson in usefulness, in kindness and in love, because it teaches thoughtfulness for others. It is a lesson in good citizenship, because it looks forward to the needs of the future. It is a lesson in economics, a lesson in the realm of wonderful Mother Nature, a lesson in art, a lesson in details—in all these things and others, because the act is making the world more beautiful, more comfortable, more useful, more delightful, and therefore a better world to live in. Riverside Repartee The lone fisherman was having miserable luck, and the presence of a small boy did not contribute to his amiability. The youngster seemed greatly interested as the man impaled a struggling worm on a hook. "What yer fishin' fer?" inquired the boy. "Sardines," retorted the fisherman, testily. "Huh!" grunted the youngster, edging away. "The crooked thing on th' end of yer line wouldn't take no prize in a can opening contest."—Harper's Weekly.
