THE COLORADO STATESMAN THE JOURNAL OF THE WEST. LABOR SHALL BE FREE RAGE COUNTRY PARTY SEN. FORAKER Addresses Large Audience of Negroes at Wilberforce University During Commencement Week. Makes a Strong Argument in Behalf of Justice and Right. VOL. XIII, SEN. FO Addresses Large Audience of N During Commencement Argument in Behalf o On the 20th inst. Senator J. B. Foraker addressed the colored citi- zens at Wilberforce, Ohio during the commencement exercises, and in part he said: In all these great events the colored people have borne an honorable part. They were represented among the volunteers we raised for the Spanish-American War. They were represented, and gallantly represented, among the regulars who fought the battles in Cuba. No braver troops bore the flag to victory in that contest than the Ninth and Tenth Cavalry and the Twenty-fourth and Twenty-fifth Infantry. They were represented on every firing line, and some of them perished in every clash of arms. They died fighting side by side with the white soldiers, and as it was in Cuba, so was it in the Philippines. Whenever there was hard service to be rendered or dangerous duty to be performed, they were present and did their full share. They would not claim any higher credit than their white comrades are entitled to receive. It would be an injustice to them to give them any less credit. Whether in the camp, on the march, in the campaign, or in battle, they have shown themselves to be patient, orderly, well-behaved, well-disciplined, brave, gallant and thoroughly reliable soldiers. With no more exceptions than should be made in the case of a similar number of white soldiers, their record is a fine one, of which not only the men who made it, but all the men of their race may well be proud. While the Negro has been doing so much to promote the common welfare he has been doing wonders for himself. Forty years ago the great body of the race in this country had just escaped from bondage. They had no property, no education, no social organization, no political status and no political rights. They were not only in this pitiably helpless condition, but they were the objects of all the prejudices that had been born of slavery. It is hard to imagine a more difficult situation than that in which they were placed, or a more hopeless outlook than that which was then before them. Forty years have passed. They have been forty years of glorious progress, not only for the white man, but for the colored man as well. The last census will show that these poor, helpless, poverty-stricken people have accumulated and are today the owners of more than $5,000,000 worth of property. "This is a splendid record and it would seem enough to overcome the prejudice born of that slave period to the extent of bringing about universal acquaintance in the doctrine of political equality for all men—white and black alike, in the presence of the constitution and the law. But unfortunately such is not the ease. The work of reconstruction that promised so much has had no such wholesale accomplishment. Notwithstanding the progress the race and individuals of the race have been making, there has been particularly of late years, a sentiment developed throughout the country that gives rise to a race problem with respect to which all thoughtful men have serious apprehensions. Its expression has taken the form not only of unlawful and shockingly brutal lynchings, but numerous other forms, such as disfranchisement of voters by grandfather clauses, violation of the spirit, if not the letter of the amendments to the constitution, a system of peonage almost as bad as slavery, and similar devices, all based upon the idea of a denial of that recognition of equality of rights which good citizenship imposes upon all classes of citizens. "How this problem is to be solved no one seems to know, but I am sure that many of the solutions that have been proposed will not prove either practicable or acceptable. "The doctrine of equal citizenship has been put into our organic law to stay there forever, and there will evenautally be actual equality of rights under the law for all men—white and black, rich and poor alike. This guaranty of the constitution may be nullified and defeated and thwarted for years to come, as it has been for the years that are gone, but it will not be repealed, and the time wil come when it will be respected and enforced throughout all the land. But this realization so important to the Negro race will not come without effort. "This will be an effort not for white men alone, but for colored men also. They can do more than anybody else, and it is proper they should do more than anybody else. It is pre-eminently their work. They can help themselves in this matter in no way so much as by providing such mental and moral education and development as will come to all who receive the benefits of such institutions as this, and who will go out into the world to give these same benefits in greater or less degree to all others with whom they come in contact. But aside from this special reason the success of popular government depends upon the intelligence and the morality of the people. "It is, therefore, the duty of all to help in every way possible to educate all, and to bring all classes up to the highest possible intellectual and moral plane. Therefore, let your newspapers and magazines be multiplied, let new schools and new colleges and new universities be established, and let all go ahead as with a labor of love to educate your youth and prepare them as only education and morality can prepare them for the great burdens and high privileges of American citizenship. And then in the discharge of these duties of citizenship show your manhood—stand up for your rights and make everybody else stand up for them. Let your ballots read down with the grandfather clauses and down with every man who upholds, condones or defends them, no matter where he lives, what politics he professes, or what office he wants. "Now a few words about Brownsville. "The investigation has not yet been concluded. We have simply taken a recess. Whether there will be any further important testimony no one knows. Because of this uncertainty I cannot predict what will be the ultimate results. All know, however, what has been accomplished "The fact that when at one time, before the case had been fully investigated, the partial testimony then presented, together with the unexplained finding of the shells in the streets, seemed to establish the guilt of the men they frankly accepted that belief but gives strength to the opinion they now have, after the thorough investigation that has been made, that all their men are innocent. They base their opinion upon the faith they have in the truthfulness of their men, who deny all guilt, and who account for themselves, their guns and their ammunition to their entire satisfaction, coupled with the fact that the witnesses, in contending to have seen them, lay claim to that which these officers know, from their personal knowledge of the darkness of that night, was an utter impossibility. But, however it may be as to the question of guilt, the fact remains that the men have had a chance to be heard in their own behalf, to tell their own story, to state their own defense, and this they have done in a clear, manly, straightforward way that reflects on them the highest credit and satisfies my mind that they are the victims of an injustice that has no precedent in the history of the American army. "Why have I bothered myself about this matter? My critics have assigned a good many reasons, all of a reprehensible character. Let me tell you the real reason, and let me tell it in the language of Secretary Taft. I refer to what he said when Athens, Ohio, was shot up two or three years ago by a lot of white soldiers of the regular army, who were encamped there with our national guard. He sent representatives of the government to look after the defense of the men who had been arrested for the crime. The citizens of Athens protested. He answered that an enlisted man is more or less a ward of the government, and if the government steps in merely to see that he is tried according to law it seems to me that it is an exercise of a discretion which the government has." "That answer was a credit to both his head and his heart. The reason that prompted him prompted me. I thought what a white soldier was entitled to at Athens, Ohio, a Negro soldier was entitled to at Brownsville, Texas. "I do not question the good faith of the President or of the secretary of war, but when I looked at the reports of Major Blockson and General Garlington, and the testimony submitted therewith, upon which the President acted, I felt that, whether it was intentional or not, he had been misled. I felt that the men had not been given a hearing, and that the little they had been permitted to say in their own behalf had been wrongfully denied any credence whatever. A few days ago these officers testified before the Senate Investigating Committee. "The investigation may prove futile to establish the truth. It may never be known who did the firing, but it will always be known that the men have at least had a chance to state their side of the case. If for what I have done in this behalf I am to be eliminated from public life, as has been proclaimed, then let it be known that I shall at least carry with me into private life the consoling satisfaction of feeling and knowing that I shall never regret, but always esteem as creditable to my heart as a man and to my sense of justice and duty as a public official. GAVE HIM A LOVING CUP. An incident connected with the Foraker speech at Wilberforce yesterday was the presentation of a magnificent loving cup by colored residents of this city. Dr. J. Franklin Walker made the presentation speech, to which Senator Foraker responded eloquently. A good-sized delegation of colored citizens of this city accompanied the gift to Wilberforce. The cup will be placed on exhibition in one of the leading colored churches here. CHANGED HIS MIND A six-shooter incident enlivened the trip from Texrs of the party of Brownsville riot witnesses recently who were enroute to Washington to testify. K. M. Wishart, a St. Louis business man, who was on the train gave out this account of the incident: "The party of witnesses got on at midnight Wednesday, and I was sitting in the smoker with a big Texan, who had not even got on with the party. "The Negro porter on the train knew immediately that this party was from Brownsville, and when the conductor told him to make up the berths he refused. The conductor came back and remarked to us that he did not know what to do as the porter would not make up the berths. "Well you should have seen that Texan. He pulled out a long sixshooter and remarked, suavely: 'Ah propose to see, sah, whethah he will make up the berths or not, sah.' "He walked back with the conductor and going up to the Negro, remarked: 'Don't you think you had better make up those berths?" The porter thought he had. "I would have blowed that coon's head off if he had refused,' said the Texan, and I am sure he meant it. "It was outrageous for Senator Foraker to try to make out that we would shoot into our own houses and kill our own citizens," said L. R. Gwen, a member of the party, to a reporter who met the train at St. Louis. "It Senator Foraker ever visited Brownsville he would be tarred and feathered." Baker, who is a United States inspector of customs at Brownsville, said: "Even if Roosevelt had not discharged the entire company, the Negro troops could not have remained in Brownsville. The people would have killed them." "The people in Brownsville are for Roosevelt," said Cowen. "But it would not look well in print to say what they think of Foraker. All the people in Brownsville wanted to deal with the Negroes themselves. They would have settled the situation. Why, if the city of Brownsville had sent out word that they needed help from the State of Texas, the trains could not have carried the men there fast enough." RACE NEWS Gathered from Various Sources. Castle Hall, a colored theater in Baton Rouge, La., estimated at $6,000 is to be built by the colored Knights of Pythias lodge of that city. Africa has at last become one of the most successful mission fields in the world. Fifty years ago an enthusiast was laughed at for his dream of a chain of missions across the center of the continent. The dream is fulfilled and paganism and savagery recede before the advance of the Missionary, the teacher and the physician. The statistics can be given in a nutshell: Missionaries, 2,470; native helpers, 13,089; churches, 4,789; members 221,156; pupils, 202,390; attendants, 527,790; schools, 3,937; hospitals, 95; publishing houses 16. Pepino A. Michie, colored, of New Orleans, La., and one of the most expert and skillful coin counters in the country, died last week in that city. Michie was an employee of the United States Sub-Treasury in New Orleans and immediately upon entering proved himself to be one of the speediest, and most accurate coin counters ever in the service. It is said that a bad or suspicious coin could not pass under his eye and touch without instant detection. NO. 40. 11TH ANNUAL SESSION 11TH ANNUAL SESSION To the Press: Pursuant to the regular appointment under the provisions of the Constitution, the Western Negro Press Association of the United States, is hereby called to convene at Topeka, Kansas, in its eleventh annual session, Monday and Tuesday, August 12th and 13th, 1907. All proprietors, editors, managers reporters and correspondents West of the Mississippi river, are eligible to membership in the Association and are urged to be present. We cordially extend an invitation to the members of the fraternity throughout the country to meet with us in Topeka, Kansas, to consider those questions so vital to the welfare of the race in this country. Recent developments, such as the Brownsville affair, Tillman's lectures against us, show the need of action on the part of the intelligent and thoughtful members of the race, and the Press must undoubtedly take the lead. We would again urge upon every paper and its entire staff to make this meeting a personal matter, in order to secure a large and enthusiastic gathering. The executive committee: Nick Chiles, of Topeka, Kansas, Chairman, and W. H. Twine, Corresponding secretary, of Muskogee, I. T., will appraise all western railroads of the convention and will request them to extend courtesies to the members and publishers of the craft. Colorado Springs, Colo., June 19, 1907. SOME ASUMPTIONS Bishop W. M. Brown of the Episcopal diocese of Arkansas, has written a book on "The Crusial Race Question" covering the race problem for the social, political and religious viewpoint. The author undertakes to establish the following assumptions: 1. No race can amount to anything without self government. 2. The only realm in which the Negro can hope to govern himself is that of religion. 3. Under present conditions the American Negro is degenerating instead of advancing towards civilization. 4. The Afro-American can only be saved from utter ruin and extinction by the bridging of the ever widening and deepening gulf which now exists between him and the Anglo-American. 5. This necessary bridging cannot be done without the complete drawing of the color line around the social, political and religious realms.

Denver.—An electric railway will be built from Denver to Morrison next year. John Brisben Walker, owner of the Caves of the Titans at Morrison, has induced some of his Eastern friends to take up the railway project, and the announcement is made that enough money to build the line has been promised. Mr. Walker has already secured a franchise and right of way through Jefferson county and before next spring will have made arrangements to enter Denver. The Denver City Tramway officials are discussing a plan to extend their line from Golden to Morrison. If this is done the two electric roads will no doubt have traffic agreements, and excursions through Morrison and Golden will be run by the Denver City Tramway Company. The resort company backed by Mr. Walker owns 7,000 acres of ground at Morrison. Mr. Walker owns the power plant and the waterworks. He is building a hotel and constructing a large swimming pool. The water in the pool will be heated by electricity from the power plant. As soon as the electric line is built to Morrison Mr. Walker will build an incline railway to the summit of Mount Morrison, which commands a splendid view of Denver and the plains. It is said that 120 small lakes can be seen from the top of the mountain. The resort at Morrison is one of three being established close to Denver. The other two are Eldorado Springs, twenty-six miles north of Denver, and Roxborough Park, twenty miles south of Denver. Electric lines to three resorts will be in operation next summer. Morrison and Eldorado Springs are how reached by steam railroads, and Roxborough Park is an oasis frequented by automobilists. Battle With Moonshiners. Ashville, N. C.—In a pitched battle in Piedmont, ten miles from this city, revenue officers routed 200 moonshiners, who were encouraged in the battle by their wives and daughters. Ten of the moonshiners were killed and thirty taken prisoners, with several women and a half dozen children. Four thousand gallons of whiskey were seized. The revenue army was led by J. Will Roberts. He received information that the moonshiners had gathered for the wholesale running of "mountain dew" and that the mountaineers were in force. Roberts gathered men from a dozen points and led them for the mountain early Monday night. The moonshiners were entrenched. Under cover of darkness Roberts led his men by a circuitous route up the mountain until he was above the mountaineers. At dawn he sent a man under cover of a white flag demanding surrender, but the moonshiners fired on the messenger. The battle was at once opened, and from the first went against the moonshiners. They were bewildered by the heavy fire directed against them, believing that they had no more than a small squad of revenue men to deal with. At the sound of the firing the women and children came flocking from cabins all over the mountainside, and the women were insistent that the position be held. It became untenable after an hour's hard fighting, and the main body of the mountainers, comprising 100 men, succeeded in a quick retreat. Five of the revenue officers were wounded, but none was killed. In all fifteen wounded were carried to this city and are now in the hospital. Died With Help Near. Fort Collins, Colo.—To be stricken by heart disease and die unattended by friends or relatives who were but a few rods away, was the fate of Mrs. Robert Walthall, aged 53. She visited a neighbor and told her husband that she intended to stay all night. From some cause she did not do so, but started home. She stopped at a store in Bellvue, when she appeared to be in good health and spirits. She had gone but a short distance when she was stricken. Her body lay in an irrigation ditch all night and was not found until morning. Mrs. Walthall, with her husband, came to this country more than twenty-five years ago and has since that time lived near Bellvue. Lords Losing Crowns. London, June 26—The three days' debate in the House of Commons ended at midnight, when Premier Campbell-Bannerman's resolution in favor of curtailing the power of the House of Lords to veto bills passed by the commons, was carried by 432 to 147, amid loud ministerial cheers. The amendment introduced by Henderson, Laborite, Durham, for the abolition of the House of Lords, was previously rejected by 315 to 100, the minority being composed of Laborites, Nationalists and a few Radicals. The Unionists abstained from voting. Herbert H. Asquith, chancellor of the exchequer, in winding up the debate, remarked that the opinion of the country was against a single chamber. Enlarge Greeley Factory. -Greeley, Colo.-If present plans do not miscarry and are not changed, the Empson Packing Company will build a mammoth vegetable canning plant at Greeley, which will give employment to between 200 and 300 persons. J. A. Empson, president of the Empson company, and Secretary D. A. Holliday met with a committee from the Greeley Commercial Club last night to discuss the matter of establishing a canning factory here. Messrs. Empson and Holliday said they were well pleased with vegetable raising conditions and prospects in this vicinity, and indicated their intention of building a factory here. LITTLE CAUSE FOR WORRY. More or Less Glittering Bait Held Out to Cow Punchers. Over in the Salmon river meadows country, in Idaho, ranged a wild and woolly bunch of long-haired cow punchers, whose knowledge of the world was confined mainly to trips after cattle into surrounding counties. Into this reckless but verdant community there came the smooth-tongued representative of a wild west show, who hired several riders at a high salary to do a hair-raising act, the chief feature being that they should appear to be thrown from their horses and dragged by the foot. After they had practiced in a corral for a while one of them loosened himself and rising from the dirt, disheveled and dazed, inquired: "Say, mister, ain't this ruther dangerous? We might git killed." "That's all right," chirped the show's representative cheerfully. "Your salary will go on just the same."—Lippincott's Magazine. THE REORGANIZED NEW YORK LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY The new Board of Trustees of the New York Life Insurance Company, chosen by the policyholders under the Armstrong laws, has taken charge of the company's affairs and has begun the work of reorganization. In choosing the principal officers of the company, the Board has adhered to the idea that a life insurance company should be managed by life insurance men. The new president is Darwin P. Kingsley, a college bred man of good New England stock, who has been in the company's service in a variety of capacities for a period of nearly twenty years. In the parlance of life insurance, he "began with the rate book" and has advanced step by step up to his present position. The first vice president of the company is Thomas A. Buckner, who has served the company for more than a quarter of a century.—indeed has never had any other business connection. Associated with these men are others long trained in the company's service, each an expert in his own department of work. Wm. E. Ingersoll, who has for many years had charge of the company's great business in Europe, is one of the second vice presidents, and will continue at the head of the company's office in Paris. Rufus W. Weeks, who has been in the company's service for nearly forty years, ranks next to Mr. Buckner as vice president, and continuous as chief lecturer of the company. The policyholders have expressed their belief in this company in no uncertain terms. The upheaval in life insurance within the last two years has resulted in a great deal of misunderstanding and policyholders, alarmed on matters which were not very clear to them, have been disposed to give up their contracts at a heavy sacrifice. This has not been true in the New York Life to any great extent. The company had $2,000,000,000 insurance on its books when the life insurance investigation began, and while the laws of the State of New York now do not permit any company to write over $150,000,000 a year (which is about one-half the New York Life formerly did), the company's outstanding business still exceeds $2,000,000,000. Policyholders generally will be still further reassured by this action of the Board, as it places at the head of the company to protect their interests men of thorough training and unexceptionable character. Injury from Mosquitoes. New Jersey has many places ideal in situation and accessibility, and one such place developed rapidly to a certain point and there it stood, halted by the mosquitoes that bred in the surrounding marsh lands. Country club, golf, tennis and other attractions ceased to attract when attention was necessarily focused on the biting or stinging pests that intruded everywhere, and the tendency was to sell out. But the owners were not ready to quit without a fight, and an improvement society was formed which consulted with my office and followed my advice. In one year the bulk of the breeding area was drained, mosquitoes have since been absent almost entirely; one gentleman, not a large owner, either, told me his property had increased $50,000 in value, and new settlers began to come in. This year one of the worst breeding areas of the olden day was used as a camping gorund, and 100 new residences are planned for next year.—Prof. John B. Smith, in the Popular Science Monthly. Home. Sweet Home The wife of a naval officer attached to the academy at Annapolis has in her employ an Irish servant, who recently gave evidence of nostalgia. "You ought to be contented and not pine for your old home, Bridget," said the lady of the house. "You are earning good wages, your work is light, everyone is kind to you, and you have lots of friends here." "Yis, mum," sadly replied Bridget; "but it's not the place where I be that makes me so homesick; it is the place where I don't be." Her Disease. One day Marjorie, aged three, wanted to play doctor with her sister. Marjorie was the "doctor," and she came to make a call on her sister, who made believe she was sick. "Do you want to know what you've got?" the doctor asked, after a critical examination. "Yes," faintly assented the sick woman. "You've got dirty hands," said Marjorie, dropping in disgust the wrist on which she had been feeling the pulse. CONVENTION BEARS FRUIT. Secretary Garfield Visits Grand Junction and Starts Ball. Grand Junction, Colo.—One of the results of the visit of Secretary of the Interior Garfield to Colorado will be the building by the United States reclamation service of the great High Line ditch, at a cost of between $200,000 and $3,000,000. The building of this ditch means the reclamation of 150,000 acres of land, which will be made highly productive agriculturally and horticulturally and provide homes and sustenance for at least 20,000 people. Work upon this vast and important national irrigation project will probably begin within the next twelve months. The proposed ditch will extend to cross the Utah line, and all land that will be watered by it is tributary to Grand Junction. State Senator D. T. Long of Mesa county, who was a delegate to the recent land convention at Denver, is responsible for the announcement. It was he who induced Secretary Garfield to change his itinerary and stop over at Grand Junction long enough for himself and party to go over the line of the proposed ditch and inspect the land that would be reclaimed by it. Secretary Garfield explained to the local committee that the principal difficulty was one of finance, as there was not now in the reclamation fund available for expenditure in Colorado, enough money to undertake this proposition and carry it along for ten years. This was met by the proposition that Grand Junction would help the government in the matter. The tentative proposition now under consideration is that the government shall begin the work and carry it through, while Grand Junction capitalists shall arrange a plan by which the installments remaining due from settlers after three years shall be funded and the government paid up in full. The ditch, as planned will take water from the Grand river above Palisade, will swing along the base of the hills north of Grand Junction, extending across the Colorado-Utah line. It is estimated that the canal, laterals, headgate, bridge across the river and other improvements will cost somewhere between $2,000,000 and $3,000,000. The land reclaimed will accommodate a population of not less than 20,000 people and carrying through the project will treble the population of Grand Junction within three years. Viewing The South Pole. Boston, Mass.—Percival Lowell, director of the great observatory at Flagstaff, Arizona, has detailed some of the results of his observations of Mars made this month. This year there has been opportunity to view the south pole of that planet and in so doing some confirmation has been secured of what was seen fourteen years ago when that part of Mars was last under view. As with the earth, the snow cap of the south pole is much larger than that of the north pole, and the melting of this has now been seen under excellent conditions. Mr. Lowell has been able to view particularly well the phe nomena of the melting of the southern polar cap. The cap at first observation was enormous in extent, covering an arc on the planet's surface of more than 100 degrees. At the second presentation this cap had diminished greatly, and at its base were certain appearances that seem to bear out Mr. Lowell's idea of vegetation. The first presentation of a large area adjoining the polar cap showed this to be a dark bank lying between the snows and the continental areas. It was a curious appearance at first, because these intermediate areas were supposed to be light ones and had been already defined and given names as seas and islands. At the second presentation of this region, the dark color had diminished and there were symptoms of dark lines, separating lighter spots. As the same area came in rotation for the third time to the observer at the telescope, the light islands were distinct as they had been noted in chartings of Mars, and they were divided as they should be by darker lines. A second important observation has been the connection of certain of the known canals with bays which formed along the polar cap as it melted. There was for a while no such connection to be seen and it might have been assumed that the canals observed were not connected with the south at all, but rather with the north pole, across the equator, but here at last was the evidence of an actual physical connection with the pole which was at the time in a melting condition. This phenomenon, although before observed in the north, has been seen for the first time at the time at the southern pole. Prison Horror. Santa Fe, N. M.-Jap L. Clarke of Torrance, under indictment for the killing of another cowboy, was the principal witness when the penitentiary investigation was resumed here. Clarke had been at the penitentiary for safe keeping, and he gave sensationally testimony as to what he witnessed and experienced while there He declared that prisoners were frequently kept for days in dark cells in solitary confinement and given food that was rotten. Convict Claude Doane, the witness said, had been kept in solitary confinement and given so little to eat for days that he was unable to walk unsupported when taken out. Clarke caused a shudder among the spectators, attorneys and witnesses when he told how a negro convict named Toney, who had fainted, was clubbed to revive him after water had failed to do so. Clarke said he weighed 197 pounds when taken to the penitentiary and 162 when released. He said that the food was served to the prisoners two and three times over, being sent back to them after it had become stale and rotten.

Famous Haywood Murder Trial Moves Along Slowly With Little New Evidence. Boise, Idaho.-The defense in the Steunenberg case continues to offer evidence that Harry Orchard threatened to kill Steunenberg and that he was also a participant in a plot to destroy the Western Federation of Miners. Mrs. Lottie Day of Denver swore that Orchard had told her that but for Steunenberg he would be a millionaire and that he intended to kill him. John D. Elliott, an old soldier, testified that he met Harry Orchard on a railway train late in November, 1905; and that Orchard told him that he was an agent of the Mine Owners' Association and that there would soon be pulled off a plot that would destroy the leaders of the miners' federation. Both Mrs. Day and Elliott were submitted to a long and searching cross-examination. Mrs. Day said she was first summoned to Boise by the state, but was sent back to Denver two weeks ago. The witness related a conversation with Orchard when the latter told her that poverty had separated him from the one woman he loved and that Steunenberg was responsible for his being poor and that he would get even with him if it was the last act of his life. "Didn't he say "that d—— Steunenberg?" asked Mr. Darrow. "No, sir, I'm sure he didn't swear like that. I think he said "that devil of a Steunenberg.'" Mrs. Day said that one day when Orchard was telling her about his gambling exploits he said he always kept a little money put away that when he made a 'raise' he put some money away from Pettibone and drew it out as he needed it. On cross-examination Mrs. Day said she now conducted a rooming house in Cripple Creek, but lived most of the time in Denver. She was introduced to Orchard by Pettibone, whom she had known for two years prior to 1904. She knew him quite well and he often visited her. Mrs. Day said she did not know Orchard under any other name than Dempsey. She did not see Orchard upon the witness stand, and recognized him as Dempsey by a photograph. When Haywood came to the Belmont the day she was talking with Orchard, Mrs. Day declared Haywood said he wished to see Orchard. The two men went into Dempsey's room. The witness said she often saw Dempsey and Pettibone together but Pettibone never came to Dempsey's room, so far as she knew. Mrs. Day said Orchard declared that he would have been a millionaire if it had not been "for the decision of Governor Steunenberg." The witness said that when she was summoned by the state and made a written statement, she did not relate the conversation with Orchard in regard to Steunenberg. "Why didn't you?" asked Mr. Hawley. "Because I wasn't asked about it." The next witness was John D. Elliott, an inmate of the Soldiers' Home, Boise. Elliott is 61 years old. He detailed a long conversation he said he had with Orchard in November, 1905, when Orchard said he was in the employ of the Mine Owners; that the Western Federation of Miners was going to be crushed, and that within 30 days something would happen that would startle the world. This was about five weeks before the assassination of Governor Steunenberg. Orchard, when confronted by Elliott, declared he had never seen the man before. Elliott was put through a searching cross-examination by Mr. Hawley. He said he had never related to his kinspeople, with whom he sometimes stopped, the details of his conversation with Orchard. "You are a Socialist, aren't you?" asked the attorney. "I can't say that I am." "Can you say that you are not?" "No sir, but I don't belong to any Socialist organization." Elliott denied that he had ever been employed by the defense or had received any pay. He admitted that he had been an inmate of the State Insane Asylum for six or seven months in 1895. One of his sons filed the application for his commitment. Elliott denied that he had been in a straight-jacket. When he was released Elliott declared he had a certificate of recovery. In May, 1894, Elliott said he went to the asylum again. The probate judge told him he was not insane, but he seemed to be in bad shape physically and he thought a stay at the asylum would benefit him. Another of his sons signed the complaint on this occasion. Elliott was released later upon the promise of his brother and sister-in-law to take care of him. He was then placed in the Soldiers' Home. On re-direct examination Elliott said he had not been assisted in any way in stating his testimony and had received but $2 witness fee and 75 cents in mileage. The defense here called to the stand John M. O'Nill, editor of the Miners' Magazine. O'Neill said he had been a miner for twenty-eight years. "You were once a member of the Legislature?" asked Mr. Darrow. "I regret to say so, yes, sir; in 1897," replied O'Neill. The witness declared Moyer and Haywood had nothing to do with the Magazine, although they occasionally wrote signed articles. The Magazine is the official organ of the Western Federation of Miners. "What is the purpose of the Magazine?" "To educate the members and unite them politically." O'Neill said he sometimes consulted Moyer and Haywood or some men of the executive board as to what to say in the Magazine. Usually he consulted no one, but published the editorials as he wrote them. The witness said he had known Orchard in Denver. In his office one day Orchard asked him where Governor Peabody and Gen. Sherman Bell lived and said they ought to be "bumped off." Just at this time the witness wife and daughter came in. Orchard made no further reference to the matter. O'Neill was cross-examined by Senator Borah. He said the magazine was supposed to reflect the official views of the Western Federation of Miners, which in convention adopted the views of Socialism. The magazine is paid for by the W. F. M. and all money has to be paid out upon the order of Haywood as secretary-treasurer. "The magazine could not run twenty-four hours without the approval of Haywood, could it?" asked Senator Borah. More Powerful Than Officer. "The magazine has been adopted by the organization and the organization is more powerful than any one officer If Mr. Haywood should decline to pay out the necessary money, the executive board would probably tell him what his duties were." "And in the executive board," commented the interrogator, "we get back to Moyer, Haywood, Jack Simplinger and Marion Moore and the others?" "Yes, sir." O'Nell said he did not know of any conflict of opinion in the executive board as to the magazine, and had never been told the magazine was un satisfactory. At this point Senator Borah began to quote from several issues of the magazine early in 1906, following the death of Governor Steunenberg. One of these contained the expression: "The press dispatches report the dissolution of Steunenberg via the boma route." O'Neill said he wrote the sentence "Wasn't it a fact?" queried the witness of the lawyer. "Yes, I suppose it is," said Senator Borah. The lawyer next read an extract from another paper, which was reprinted in the Miners' Magazine. In read: "A chap by the name of Steunenberg was blown up the other day at Caldwell. He came into fame as the inventor of that revered institution known as the bullpen. It seems a bomb was carelessly left at his gate "Such carelessness should be frowned down. The gate was completely wrecked." O'Neill said he selected the clipping and had it published. Reads Editorial. "Did you write this editorial?" Senator Borah here read an editorial appearing in the Miners' Magazine of January, 1906, beginning with the statement that Steunenberg had been issued into eternity and thus had "closed the career of a man who showed no mercy." Continuing, the editorial, in most inflammatory terms detailed outrages in the bull pen in 1899, attributing to Steunenberg the responsibility for the calling in of "black brutes of soldiers who outraged the wives and sisters of miners and refused the request of a miner who with the dew of death upon his brow, asked for a minister and was told that he could make his confession in hell." The editorial went on to say that the death of Steunenberg was a step forward, but that the murder of one man did not destroy the system adopted by the capitalistic class. In conclusion, the editorial said that the sudden extermination of Steunenberg was not of great moment, "because Steunenbergs would continue to rise." "Did you write that editorial?" repeated Senator Borah. "Yes, sir." "And you expressed the views of the organization?" "I think I did." "You are sure of it, aren't you?" "Yes, sir, I am." O'Neill declared that Orchard had never come to headquarters in Denver to ask for money. Ira Bizard of Cripple Creek, a railway conductor and yardmaster, was called to the stand as the first witness after recess. "Did you testify before the United States commission appointed to investigate the Cripple Creek disturbances?" asked Mr. Darrow. "No, sir," replied the witness. "Do you know K. C. Sterling?" "Yes, sir." Saw the Clews. The witness said he understood Sterling was in the employ of the Mine Owners' association and he had communicated with Sterling at the headquarters of the association. The defense claims the Independence depot was all but an abandoned affair and that its destruction might have been planned by others than the Western Federation of Miners. "What sort of a depot was it?" asked Mr. Darrow of the witness. "The depot was in good condition," replied Bizard. "It was a nice, up-to-date station, with a good waiting room. It had a platform in front of it." "I called Sterling up and told him the dogs were on a good, safe trail. He said: "Call the dogs off; we know who did it." "I called the dogs off. Some days later I saw Sterling and he told me the reason he called the dogs off was that he knew who caused the explosion; that it was Steve Adams." Charles A. Sullivan, watchman at the Brown hotel, Denver, and a former miner in the Cripple Creek district, followed Redd upon the witness stand. Sullivan said he knew Orchard at Cripple Creek in 1902. He then detailed the statement Orchard is alleged to have made to him and which Orchard denied this morning. Sullivan said Orchard declared that if it had not ben for Steunenberg he would be rich; that Steunenberg ought to be killed, would be killed and if he was not killed, he (Orchard) would kill him. Has No Disposition to Ruin Drago Doctrine. The Hague.—The fourth committee, Geneva convention, met June 25th in the Hall of Knights behind closed doors. General Horace Porter, L. M. Rose, David J. Hill, Brigadier General George B. Davis, U. S. A., Rear Admiral Charles S. Sperry, William I. Buchanan, and James Brown Scott were present. The president of the fourth committee, Professor De Martens, summarized the work accomplished by the convention of 1899 and the fields to be covered. Lord Reay and Sir Ernest Satow presented a proposition on the subject of neutral prizes, reserved the right to present another proposition for the definition of what constitutes a warship and presented a statement on contraband of war. The American delegation has not yet given out the definite draft of its proposition for the collection of contractual debts. This is causing some uneasiness among the South American countries, and especially after the publication this evening of the minutes of the sitting of June 19th, from which it appears that General Porter, in announcing the American proposition said: "The United States will present a proposition for concluding an agreement, in which it will introduce some limitations in using force for the collection of contractual, public and ordinary debts. The feeling among certain South American people is that the words 'some limitations' show that it is the intention of the United States to so reduce the Drago doctrine as to deprive it of its original character, thereby destroying the purpose for which it was" intended—protection against illicit European interference. General Porter, on the other hand, appears to be satisfied with the work accomplished and is confident of the support of the European and South American countries in this matter. The American proposition relating to the private property of belligerents at sea, presented this afternoon by Joseph H. Chote, establishes this as inviolable, with the exception of contraband, but "inviolable" does not extend to private property trying to run a blockade. The British proposition on this subject of neutral prizes establishes that prizes must not be destroyed unless deemed absolute necessity. The British statement with reference to contraband reads as though Great Britain, which heretofore has held that the flag covers contraband, now only reserves the right to visit the ships to ascertain whether or not the merchandise carried is contraband. They Used Liquid Air. Cincinnati, Ohio.—Lieutenant Heinrich von Bargay, Austrian naval expert, visiting here, declares he has solved the mystery of the Japanese victory over the Russians. The Austrian officer made a careful investigation of the effect of the Japanese shells upon the entrenchments and armored shipping, and his conclusions are startling. Japan used liquid air instead of cordite, melinite, dynamite or other explosives ordinarily used for charging armor-piercing projectiles," said von Bargay. "I have plenty of circumstances that show my conclusions more than probable. "In the first place it was noted during the late war that the holes, rent and tears inflicted by the Japanese shell were irregular in shape and many times as large as those produced by ordinary shells. It was also noted that no trace of the body of the shell could be found after it had exploded, that no Russian sailors were struck with bits of exploding projectiles, that those who were killed by shell fire were killed by the force of the explosion and not by fragments of steel, and that the explosive forces exerted by the shells were vastly greater than ever before known. "I learned that Herman Berg, an inventor and constructing chemist, who formerly lived in New York, had been employed by the Japanese two years before the outbreak of the war to go to Japan and take charge of the ordnance laboratory of the nation. Berg disappeared from New York mysteriously, keeping his destination secret, and I have since learned that it was he who invented the liquid air shells for the Japanese." Von Bargay says he has made experiments with liquid air shells that bear out his statements. Big Ranch Sold for $200,000, The Excelsior ranch, consisting of 13,000 acres, in the San Luis valley, has just been purchased by A. C. Hahn of South Dakota for $200,000. He will bring settlers from the East to take up the property. Mr. Hahn has also purchased from the Alamosa Reservoir Company 4,000 feet of water from the Commonwealth ditch. This will supplement the water rights which already belong to the Excelsior ranch. The land lies twelve miles south of Alamosa and eight miles east and a little north of La Jara. All of the land in the Uncompahgre valley under the Gunnison tunnel, has been taken up. In all there is 30,000 acres of government land, and 90,000 acres owned by individuals which will be watered by means of the Gunnison tunnel. The Denver & Rio Grande railway, which has been advertising the Uncompahgre valley, is now changing its literature so that nothing will be said about the government land under the Gunnison tunnel project. Women as Publishers Colorado Springs.—Miss Lisle Harris who recently sold the Manitou Journal, is to publish a magazine. It will be issued in Colorado Springs and she plans a number of unique features. Miss Harris is a woman of reputed wealth and will start her magazine on a financial basis that will permit of her issuing a handsome publication. As a political and financial figure of Manitou she has wielded wide influence and the announcement that she will start another publication, is calculated to cause a stir in the little re- PARK Peerless 2707 Welton St. Use Miller's B Veterinary Liniment for For flesh wounds, galls of a bruises, scratches or grease weakness of joints, cont muscles, swellings, tur the early stage of PREPARED ONLY FRANK P.

FORAKER AT WILBERFORCE. BENSON FORAKER, Ohio's illustrator, had the principal address at the recent interforce College in that state, and in order toaken to be of national importance, for the issue that has been raised between theelt over the Negro soldiers, which must of a presidential candidate in 1908.

We further believed States could poll as large a Negroexer's candidacy would insure. And these very incidents, is going to play on next year, no matter what economised between the two great parties. party, through strenuous leadership,ings, and in many great industrial peoife difference of opinion between Republ and Democrats of greatest prominence,aller issues, therefore, may really decide and among those smaller issues thereof of greater national importance than a partial justice in the application of adere elimination of elemental friction byessary laws. That the personal characte shall give assurance of these req JOSEPH BENSON FORAKER, Ohio's illustrious United States senator, delivered the principal address at the recent commencement exercises at Wilberforce College in that state, and in certain respects his remarks can be taken to be of national importance, for they had direct bearing upon the issue that has been raised between the senator and President Roosevelt over the Negro soldiers, which must play some part in the selection of a presidential candidate in 1908. Senator Foraker's address was not political except in its final reference to his attitude in the Senate upon the Brownsville affair, and to the threats of his enemies to eliminate him from public life because of his opposition to those who were responsible for the summary dismissal, without honor, of the black soldiers, some of whom had so long and so signally honored their country. He declared that he had done only what seemed to him to be his plain duty, not through any desire to oppose the forces of the administration, and said that if for what he had done it should be the decision of the people, whom he wished to serve not a moment longer than they desired him to serve them, that he should be eliminated from public life, he would retire with the approval of his conscience in the belief that he had done his duty as a man and an official. And those were brave words for any man to utter at any time on behalf of men against whom such lasting condemnation had been spoken as that laid upon the heads of the soldiers, but they were heroie words just at this time, when the man who gave utterance to them is considered a possible presidential candidate and knows that the cause he has espoused, even though right and just, is not really a popular one, with a large portion of the people whose sentiments go far towards deciding the choice of conventions which nominate candidates. But Senator Foraker is a man of strong convictions, and the bare force of his convictions makes him a power for the correction of evil, and we earnestly believe that if he should win the nomination for the presidency, he would lose nothing because of the fact that he had opposed the unjust course of a popular administration. We further believe that no other man in the United States could poll as large a Negro vote next year as Senator Foraker's candidacy would insure. And this same Negro vote, because of these very incidents, is going to play an important part in the election next year, no matter what economic and industrial issues may be raised between the two great parties. In some respects the Republican party, through strenuous leadership, has drifted away from its moorings, and in many great industrial policies there is at present very little difference of opinion between Republicans of greatest public influence and Democrats of greatest prominence. What may be regarded as smaller issues, therefore, may really decide the next presidential contest, and among those smaller issues there is none of vaster moral worth or of greater national importance than that of the establishment of impartial justice in the application of administrative policies and the entire elimination of elemental friction by the enforcement of just and necessary laws. That the personal character of the Republican candidate shall give assurance of these requirements is most important. THE HAYWOOD TRIAL of William D. Haywood, now going on a pendant is charged, as the active hearers, with responsibility for the death, is an astounding revaluation of the go in a country and among a people to be less than anywhere else in the land, the self-confessed perpetrator of the line, and with more shocking detail freemen, unthwarted heirs of all the motives could be nothing above the political power. Murder after murderer, was committed through a period rest and confession of Orchard, it see THE trial of William D. Haywood, now going on at Boise, Idaho, in which the defendant is charged, as the active head of the Western Federation of miners, with responsibility for the death of former Governor Steunenberg, is an astounding revalation of the depth to which criminality can go in a country and among a people where excuse for crime is thought to be less than anywhere else in the world. The testimony of Orchard, the self-confessed perpetrator of this crim and many others in the same line, and with more shocking details, makes up a revolting record for freemen, unthwarted heirs of all the benefits of a free government, whose motives could be nothing above the selfish lust for industrial and political power. Murder after murder, all of the most atrocious character, was committed through a period of several years, and, until the arrest and confession of Orchard, it seemed that the constituted machinery of justice was wholly inadequate to cope with the system whose existence was evidenced by its terrorizing influence and its bloody trail. The clash of classes—the mine owners and the civil authorities against the mine workers, because the latter would not trust their cause to the courts or any other impartial tribunal—was the beginning of this great era of anarchy, and it is wholly unreasonable to believe that the long siege of assassination and property destruction that followed was not directed by somebody exercising authority over the desperate men who lent themselves, body and soul, to this secret and demoralizing style of warfare. Orchard's story, reeking with bloody riot, such as was never before heard on a witness stand, whether true or not in every detail, carries conviction of truth in general, because it so completely and so reasonably explains the awesome mysteries of the past. It alone convicts the Western Federation of Miners, through those who controlled it and those who upheld it, of a treason worse than all the murders collectively laid at its doors. These men were fighting state governments, the law and the courts and every adjunct of peaceful society with the weapons of anarchy. And there was never a righteous principle at state calling for a resort to arms, open or secret. But the Western Federation of Miners and its associated branches are not alone in this instinct. American institutions seem to breed a type among those who are within reach of their choiceest benefits which is perverse and menacing to all hopes of freedom. Every state has its element which hates the law and awaits but an excuse and a promise of safe escape to defy society with depravity and crime. Some form of crime is always the bond which kneads this type into a compact mass. The aims of the American government are ideal; its fundamental laws are based upon a true sense of justice. But selfishness is one of the outgrowths of individual freedom, which indicates that Americans need to keep close watch upon themselves for tendencies opposed to their highest and dearest aims. In the West the miners are easily brought together and easily influenced by the appeals of desperate and designing leaders who play upon their biased opinions. In the South another element which is even more insanely jealous of other seeming menace to its pride, or its industrial or political supremacy, resorts to lawlessness more cowardly but less condemned. The North and East may have passed the days of systematic class murders, but they are not free from corruptive influences no less antagonistic to law and justice. An awakened sense of righteousness, an improved sense of American ideals and of the mutual obligations of classes is needed the country over. MOUNTAIN TRIP In making a journey anywhere through Colorado one is impressed with the fact that the development of this state is going on at a rapid rate everywhere. I went to Telluride and was entertained by Mr. C. Turner and his charming wife, they are Denverites, who are doing well. The pastor of the M. E. church, Rev. Kerwin is a grand young minister. He arranged for a lecture for me in his church Sunday night, June 16, an orchestra helped the choir to give us music. I preached to his people Sunday morning and if the greeting at the close of each service be taken as evidence, his people appreciated our effort, we were helped in our work also by Mrs. Emma Jackson. I lectured in the Congregational church of Montrose on Tuesday night, the pastor, Rev. Shindler had warm words of praise for our cause at the close of the lecture. I was entertained while in Montrose by Mr. H. S. Pitts and his interesting family. His young daughter Miss Edna bids fair to graduate with honor class 1908. Mrs. Pitts does a good restaurant business. We came next to Grand Junction, Rev. C. H. Brown and a committee had started in to give an entertainment. Mrs. John Mapps was chairman of the affair. In a short while they arranged a dinner which would have done credit to a much more pretentious town and fed 200 people, this shows how well all the members of that committee worked together it also demonstrated this fact that if the good people of that metropolis of the western slope could be induced to work together they could certainly accomplish wonders. On the night of the 20th of June I was to lecture in the M. E. church, a splendid audience room, our crowd was not large at the lecture. The Pastor of the M. E. church is spoken of as a great hearted liberal christian minister some thought he had his hands full with his church work, and he has to entertain the conference in his church soon. Messrs T. R. Herron, John Mapps and Al Fields helped in arranging for the lecture. Rev. C. H. Brown the pastor is "hoeing his own row." J. W. SANDERS Colorado Springs News. Mr. J. D. D.

H.D.EARL Say Women Cooks Are Best. Some of the most famous diners, of whom the late Sir Henry Thompson was not the least, have held that a first-rate woman cook is the superio, of any "chef" that ever drew his thousands a year. Half the nonsense that is talked about "chefs" and half the money that is paid them, flows from the determination of plutocratic persons to get rid of large sums in a manner that is pretty sure to be talked about.—London Daily News.

Taken When the First Warning Symptoms Are Noticed Much Needless Suffering May Be Saved. Are you troubled with pallor, loss of spirits, waves of heat passing over the body, shortness of breath after slight exertion, a peculiar skipping of the heart beat, poor digestion, cold extremities or a feeling of weight and fullness? Do not make the mistake of thinking that these are diseases in themselves and be satisfied with temporary relief. This is the way the nerves give warning that they are breaking down. It simply means that the blood has become impure and cannot carry enough nourishment to the nerves to keep them healthy and able to do their work. Rest, alone, will sometimes give the needed relief. The tonic treatment by Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, however, prevents the final breakdown of the nerves and the more serious diseases which follow, because the pills act directly upon the impure blood, making it rich, red and pure. Mrs. E. C. Bradley, of 103 Parsells avenue, Rochester, N. Y., says: "I was never very healthy and some years ago, when in a run-down condition, I suffered a nervous shock, caused by a misfortune to a friend. It was so great that I was unfitted for work. "I was just weak, low-spirited and nervous. I could hardly walk and could not bear the least noise. My appetite was poor and I did not care for food. I couldn't sleep well and once for two weeks got scarcely an hour's sleep. I had severe headaches most of the time and pains in the back and spine. "I was treated by two doctors, being under the care of one of them for six months. I got no relief and then decided to try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. I soon began to feel better and the improvement was general. My appetite became hearty and my sleep better. The headaches all left and also the pains in my back. A few more boxes entirely cured me and I was able to go back to work. I felt splendid and as though I had never been sick." Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are invaluable in such diseases as rheumatism, after-effects of the grip and fevers, neuralgia, St. Vitus' dance and even partial paralysis and locomotor ataxia. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are sold by all druggists, or will be sent, postpaid, on receipt of price, 50 cents per box, six boxes for $2.50, by the Dr. Williams Medicine Company, Schenectady, N. Y.

Judge Wood, in the Haywood trial at Boise, Idaho, admitted as evidence many articles from the Miners' Magazine which tended to show the animus of the Western Federation against former Gov. Steuenberg. According to the Census bureau the production of lumber in the United States for 1906 was 37,490,357,000 feet; of laths 3,802,220,000, and of shingles, 11,885,455,000. A battalion of infantry stationed in southern France deserted with their arms and ammunition and joined the revolting wine growers. They were later induced to return to their regiment. The telegraph operators employed by the Western Union and Postal companies at San Francisco have struck for 25 per cent increase in wages, notwithstanding the agreement entered into at New York with Labor Commissioner Neill. The winegrowers' strike in France is assuming a more peaceful aspect. The state has closed its case in the Haywood trial at Boise, Idaho, and immediately after the announcement was made the defense filed a motion to dismiss the defendant on the showing made by the prosecution. After argument the court overruled the motion. The National Eclectic Medical society, at its meeting in Los Angeles, selected Kansas City as the place of the next annual convention. The Oklahoma and Indian territory dental associations have been amalgamated with Dr. C. L. White, of Oklahoma City, as president. Mrs. Russell Sage has sent to the Lincoln Farm Association a contribution of $25,000 to the fund for the preservation of the Abraham Lincoln farm and log cabin. President Fallieres of France has been decorated by the emperor of Japan with the order of the Chrysanthemum in celebration of the signing of the Franco-Japanese agreement. The treasury department has completed the purchase of $25,000,000 four per cent bonds, provided for in an order issued in April. Governor General Smith, after a month's tour of inspection, has returned to Manila and announces that Pulajanism is ended on the islands of Samar and Leyte. The comptroller of the treasury has decided that the charges for transportation of any body of organized militia, when travelling under orders of the department, are payable the same as regular troops. Primerier Campbell-Brannerman has moved a resolution in the British house of commons curtailing the power of the house of lords. TABLE DELICACIES ALL SORTS OF GOOD THINGS TO TEMPT THE APPETITE, Beef Tea as It Should Be Made—Hot Water Sponge Cake—Apricot Sherbet Makes a Delicious Dessert. Beef Tea.—Take a pound of good steak, remove all the fat, wipe the meat with a damp cloth, and cut it in pieces about one inch square. Put this in a glass fruit jar, pour over it two cups of cold water, and salt, and let it stand for half an hour. Into a deep saucepan put several thicknesses of newspaper and set the jar on this. Pour water into the saucepan so that it will rise to the same height as the liquid inside the jar. Let the water reach the simmering point, and let it stand for two hours, then increase the heat a very little, and cook a little longer. Pour off the liquid, strain, add more salt if necessary, and serve very hot. Hot Water Sponge Sake.—Beat the yolks of three eggs until very light. Add one cup of sugar, beating constantly. Stir in a little at a time half a cup of boiling water. Add one and one-fourth cups of flour in which a teaspoonful of baking powder has been sifted, and a little salt. Lastly add the whites of two eggs beaten stiff and a teaspoonful of any preferred extract for flavoring. Bake in a rather quick oven and do not open the oven door until the cake has been baked nearly 20 minutes. Creamed Macaroni with Cheese.—Break up enough macaroni into inch pieces to fill a cup. Put it into boiling salted water, and let it cook until tender, which should take about 20 minutes. Turn into a colander and let the cold water from the faucet run through it until the pieces do not stick together. Make a white sauce, using three tablespoons of butter, one and one-half tablespoonfuls of flour, one and one-fourth cups of milk, and salt to taste. When nearly cooked stir in half a cupful of grated cheese. When the cheese is melted turn the sauce over the macaroni, mixing it carefully. Turn into a buttered baking dish, cover with cracker crumbs, and dot the crumbs with butter. Cook in a hot oven until the crumbs are brown. Fruit Filling for Cake.—Cook together in boiling water half a cup of seeded raisins and half as many candied cherries, until the fruit plumps out nicely. Turn out all the water, chop the fruit, season with lemon juice, and then return to the liquid in which the fruit was boiled and add enough powdered sugar to make the mixture spread easily and keep stiff. Apricot Sherbet.—Select a good brand of canned apricots and remove the fruit from the sirup. With a sharp knife remove all the skin from the fruit and cut the apricots in small pieces. Return the fruit to the sirup, add two cups of sugar and a little less than a quart of water. Stir well together and freeze. Serve in sherbet glasses and pass sponge cake with it, unless it is used between the meat and salad or game course. Crabapple Jelly. — To change the sometimes insipid taste of crabapple jelly, cook a small bag of mixed spice in the juice. It will give a fine flavor and is a delightful change to serve with meat. Jelly Roll. Take three eggs, well beaten, one cup of sugar, one cup of flour, one teaspoonful of baking powder, one tablespoonful of melted butter, one cup of sweet milk. Spread with jelly while warm and roll. Blackberry Jam. Many people object to the seeds. There will be no cause for complaint if one-half the seeds are strained out. This impairs neither the quality nor quantity. All She Remembered. Miss Homebuddy—So you're home again. Of course, you saw Paris? Miss Gidday—Oh, yes. Miss Homebuddy—Oh, wasn't it just lovely?

Sometimes it is hard to tell whether she is a June graduate or a June bride, unless she happens to shake a little rice out of her lace hat. William Allen White warned the graduates of some down-East college against “educated vandals.” ‘True, some of these green-goods and gold: brick men are almost equal to some ot our magazine writers in handing out the slippery talk. The Girl Who is Gentle. By the gentle girl is not meant the girl who is gentle in heart and thought, though she should strive to he both, but the girl who is gentle in her move. ments and in her speech. She does not knock against chairs as she enters the room, she does not plant down each foot as if’ she were trying to stamp the pattern out of the carpet, When she talks and becomes inter- ested in her subject she does not allow her voice to becomea shrill tone that is ear-piercing, Of course, none of these things are wicked, but they show a lack of consid. eration, and suggest that there is a strain in one that does not belong te the refined and lovable temperament, The girl who is gentle learns to walk quietly, to keep here eyes open so that she does not trip over rugs, cushions, chairs or tables. The girl who is gentle realizes that a sweet, low voice and a quiet manner are more convincing of the power oI womanhood than all the loud-talking and blustering imaginable, It cost the New Jersey Legislatuw $3,200 for tooth brushes and manicurt sets, Evidently New Jersey needs g treasury watch dog of the Uncle Jo Cannon type.

Soon after brenkfast the captain saw the corporal and asked him how the man was getting on. “Ob, he's all right now,” was the reply, “I took him up to the hospital tent, and when I saw what kind of medicine the doc- or gave him I had a chill too.”—Army and Navy Life. THOUGHT CHILD WOULD DIE. Whole Body Covered with Cuban Itch —Cuticura Remedies Cured at Cost of Seventy-Five Cents. “My little boy, when only an infant of three months, caught the Cuban Itch. Sores broke out from his head to the bottom of his feet. He would itch and claw himself and cry all the time. He could not sleep day or night, and a light dress is all he could wear. [ called one of our best doctors to treat him, but he seemed to get worse. ‘He suffered so terribly that my hus- ‘band said he believed he would have to die, I had almost given up hope ‘when a lady friend told me to try the Cuticura Remedies. I used the Cuti- cura Soap and applied the Cuticura Ointment and he at once fell into a sleep, and he slept with ease for the first time since two months. After three applications the sores began to dry up, and in just two weeks from the day I commenced to use the Cuticura Remedies my baby was entirely well. The treatment only cost me Toc, and I would have gladly paid $100 if I could not have got it cheaper. I feel safe in saying that the Cuticura Remedies saved his life. He is now a boy of five years.

He there discovered the necessity of certain emphatic language in order to make mules move. “All varieties” of tongues were in demand in that camp: Scandinavian, German, Italian—but none of the words used seemed to have the explosive force to adjust the tempo of the mule to the desired pace. Along came a strapping Irish- man, who used some popular exple- tives, usually indicated in print by blank, blank, or ——-——. ‘The mules moved! “‘There's a language all mules understand,” said the Irishman —“and it’s not me mother tongue, ayther."—Joe Mitchell Chapple, in National Magazine.

Good for Evil. . One Sunday a teacher was trying to illustrate to her small scholars the lesson, “Return good for evil.” To make it practice] she said: “Suppose, children, one of your schoolmates should strike you, and the next day you should bring him an apple—that would be one way of returning good for evil.” To her dismay one of the little girls spoke up quickly: “Then he would strike you again to get another apple!” DOCTOR'S FOOD TALK Selection of Food One of the Most Im- portant Acts in Life. A Mass. doctor says: “Our health and physical and mental happiness are so largely under our persanal con- trol that the proper selection of food should be, and is one of the most im- portant acts in life. “On this subject, I may say that I know of no food equal in digestibility, and more powerful in point of nutri- ment, than the modern Grape-Nuts, four heaping teaspoons of which is suf- ficient for the cereal part of a meal, and experience demonstrates that the user is perfectly nourished from one meal to another, “I am convinced that the extensive and general use of high class foods of this character would increasé the term of human life, add to the sum total of happiness and very considerably im- prove society in general. 1am free to mention the food, for I personally know of its value.” Grape-Nuts food can be used by babes in arms, or adults. It is ready cooked, can be served instantly, either cold with cream, or with hot water or hot milk poured over. All sorts of puddings and fancy dishes can be made with Grape-Nuts. The food §s concentrated and very economical, for four heaping teaspoons are suffi- cient for the cereal part of a meal.

We have no mean choice between the various tones of biscuit, almond and wash-leather, and, by the way, with a blue serge dress and a black tle, wash-leather colored gloves must be reckoned as superlatively attract- ive; and talking of blue serge, 1 will return to the popular craze of blue, and note with much satisfaction that the blue serge dress looks extremely well when crowned with one of the hats of the new bright blue, which may best be described as China blue with a strong dash of peacock in it, trimmed at one side with a rosette of One of the peculiarities of the pres- ent season's styles is the marked ten- dency to abolish any definite line of the fignre. ‘The ideal line is long, un- dilating and undefined; and if by any chance a bodice seems more or less tight-fitting, fashion at once throws over it some loose coat or floating 4x ee La eH 4 aor aN BRNO’ ae 1h ‘ af.

The figure on the right reveals a dress of the finest ninon, trimmed with thick lace and tassels, and the hat js of erinoline straw with a panache of feathers at one side. It would look well either in a biscuit color or in pale gray, I should say, although I own to a friend who has determined to copy it in dull light pink, and I note parenthetically that all shades of dull light pink are receiving consid- erable attention, while I remember with gratitude a costume made of this ninon with the ninon worked into rosettes and tassels, bearing @*Bod- ice of Japanese outline, with a vest and the under sleeves of very fine ivory net. Crowned with a crinoline hat of brown encircled with brown leaves and pink and red roses the re- sult was pre-eminently satisfying. But I am forgetting that other illus- tration, which expresses a costume de- signed for dress outdoor occasions, held across the front with coral but- tons set in gold, fine lace forming the vest, and ninon the skirt.

Stout THE JOHN CARSON & BRO., ROCKERY O. THURSDAY, JULY 18TH — BIG PICNIC AT BLOOMFIELD PARK _ DOCTOR I8 CABIN BOY. Milwaukee Physician Quits Large Practice for $10 Job at Sea. New York.—It was the fascination of the Pacific, the undeniable attrac- tion of endless blue skies and rolling seas that caught Daniel Wylie, a Mil- waukee physician, and caused him, as so many others have done, to secure employment that would keep him in the Sandwich islands. Less than» a year ago Wylie, about 35 years old, shipped out of this port for Honolulu as “cabin boy” aboard the American bark Nuuanu, Capt. Joselyn. Now he is purser of an island steamer plying between Honolulu, Maul, Hawaii and other islands. The Nuuanu has come back. Capt. Josselyn, an elderly skipper, who lives at Duxbury, Mass., told of his physician cabin boy. He said: “He made a good cabin boy; never saw a better one to clean brasses than Wylie. He was a good doctor, too, by all accounts. A man about 35 years old, I should imayine. He got $10 a month as cabin boy and said he left a practice of $10,000 a year to make ‘the sea trip. He was shattered in health, you see; nerves gone; worked too hard. Well, naturally, you can see what it led to. His health gave way and he was advised to go east and take a long sea trip. “Seems his wife was dead and he had letf two children out west there. Wylie stood the test well. When wo Were out a few days he was very bad ind could hardly get about. After that he braced up, however, and stead- dy recovered his health.” HORSE FOR THE MUSEUM. §releton of Stonewall Jackson’: Charger Is Secured. Pittsburg, Pa—With the great nass of official business off his hands, saused by the annual meeting of the Museum Directors’ association, in this tity recently, Dr. W. J. Holland now Intends to devote himself to the mounting of the many new finds made within the last few months. By far the most interesting of these, from a historical standpoint, is the skeleton of Stonewall Jackson's horse, which was secured by the dl- rector against much quiet but per- sistent competition, Dr, Holland will prepare this exhibit with his own hands, and it probably will be placed in the museum within a fortnight. The skeleton is said to be practically per- fect. The skeleton of another famous war horse of the rebellion, Winchester, tha charger of Gen. Phil Sheridan, in his famous 20-mile ride, {s government property, and is kept in the museum on Governor's island, in New York harbor. This museum for a long time has been going to ruin through the lack of an appropriation to keep it up, and the hide of the old war horse is rapidly falling away from dry rot. It is possible that “Winchester” will be added to the Carnegie collection or that both Jackson's and Sheridan's horses will ultimately stand side by side in a national museum. TALL PEOPLE LIVE LOMGEST. Cleveland Health Officer Says Germs Can't Climb Up to Their Noses. Cleveland, O.—Health Officer Mur- tin Friedrich, of this city advances a new germ theory that is certainly ¢n- couraging to people who are tall. “Blessed are the tall,” says Frigd- rich, “for they shall live fong. A six- footer,” he continued, “has more chance to escape disease germs than the little fellow. Those built close to the ground must be on the lookout.” Friedrich was perusing the physi- clans’ mortality reports, and notised A prevalence of children’s diseases. Out of 26 cases of cerebro-spinal men- ingitis, or spotted fever, reported to, his department since January 1, all of the victims have been children. “I believe that most of the disease! germs are close to the ground,” he said. “We know that these germs are. taken Into the system through the nose in breathing. They find a breed- ing place in the dirt of the streets, and as they are stirred up by the pass- ing pedestrians, they are drawn into the nose. “The germs never reach any graat altitude. Most of them are falling toward the ‘earth, and as the chil- dren's noses are closer to the ground than those of adults, they are more likely to inhale the disease-makers.” WIGS NOW MADE OF GLAss. Lack of the Genuine Article Forces Use of Novel Substitute. London.—The enormous feminine demand for artificial coils and ton- pees is leading to a famine tn human hair, Formerly Swiss, German end. Hungarian girls supplied the world of fashionable women with luxuriant tresses of ali tints, But the governments of many coun- tries are now making it illegal for a girl to sell her hair or for any agent to buy it. The supply in consequence is running short, and the prices of real hair are trebling. A series of successful experiments point to spun glass as the most ef- fective substitute for human hatr. Wigs made from spun glass are won- derfully light and fine and the tex- ture soft and beautiful, It 1s easy to produce any shade de- stred, while curls and waves can be manufactured at will to suit the fash- jon of the moment, The {mitation ts so realistic and true to life that it ts impossible to detect the difference between it and real hair grown on the aead.
