THE COLORADO STATESMAN THE JOURNAL OF THE WEST. LABOR SHALL BE FREE RACE COUNTRY PARTY WashingtonD.C. New Pension Bill to be Introduced in the Next Congress. It will Lessen the Hardships of Many Deserving Ones Whose Pensions are Now too Small. VOL. XIV, Washing New Pension Bill to be Introduced Lessen the Hardships of M Pensions are Special to COLORADO STATESMAN. The matter of pensions is a sub- ject that has given as much con- cern to legislators, as any of the questions, which in a serious way affect large numbers of the citizens of our country. Various pension bills have been voted through Congress from time to time since the Revolutionary War having for their aim the relief of men and the families of men, who had suffered and endured disability, through service in war for their country. Although originally designed for the benefit of the worthy in this class, it was to be expected that subsequent laws might develop many inequalities in the distribution of the benefits provided by the Nation for its defenders. In a great many instances the generosity of the government has been sadly abused and as a consequence, there are persons won drawing pensions who would be more fittingly employed if they were drawing a cart. These in an unguarded moment will claim to be enjoying the most perfect health and are known to be in active daily pursuit of their chosen occupations. There are many such cases to be found in the Federal service, where it is not an unusual thing for men in the higher clerkships to be in receipt of large pensions, granted on the contention that the applicants' ability and capability for earning his living had been seriously impaired through his army service. It is needless to say that many of these for whom Uncle Sam has so liberally provided, Captains and Majors too, could scarcely employ their talents at so great a profit in any private civil occupation. It was truly a lucky chance that induced some of them to enter the soldier service of the country. But there are the others, the poor fellows without influence, ignorant oftentimes but just as devoted to the old flag as they were in the 60's, when they proved their valor at the cannons mouth and in the fevered trench. Many of these devoted souls are actually incapacitated for self support through their army service; some of them walking with shuffling gait on stick; others groping their way from place to place on account of partial or total loss of sight, while still others are sitting from day to day in childish impetence by their humble hearth stone, a hopeless victim of the ills of war The modest pension which they have been allowed, is to be sure sufficient for the ordinary demands of comfort but entirely inadequate when regard is had for the hardships and restrictions which their afflictions impose or their devoted service and life of suffering would seem to demand. For the old pensioners of this type, the Pension Bill which Gen. Usaac R. Sherwood of Ohio, proposes to introduce at the coming session of the Congress, will have a peculiar interest. General Sherwoods Bill will grant one dollar a day to all pensioners who served two years or more in the Union Army during the Civil War. Such a law will do much to lessen the hardships and injustices which many deserving soldiers have suffered by reason of an unfair or prejudiced distribution of the pension fund. The Nation should do the best it possibly can for all its brave and loyal defenders, the humble poor as well as the high and influential, for its present safety and greatness is due as much to the one as to the other. General Sherwood's Bill should become a law without unnecessary delay for it will then be made certain that the means of comfort and partial independence will have been placed within the reach of all who still remain, who fought so well and nobly for Union and for Freedom. JOHN H. PAINTER Prof. McMilan Bron, the eminent ethnologist of Sydney, Australia, says Australia is destined to become the home of the Negroes. The Polynesians, according to the professor come not from America as has been supposed, but from Asia. They were whites, and changed color, just as the future Australian may do as the centuries go on at least the tropical regions of the North of the continent. The northern territory is no place for the white man. The violent rays of the sun will turn him black in course of time. DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 26, 1907. THE SOUTH AND THE NEGRO. The following strikingly broad-minded and able address on Negro education from a southern standpoint was delivered by Mr. Leroy Percy in Greenville, Miss., at a dinner of the State Bar Association last May. Mr. Percy is one of the foremost citizens of the state. The address was published in the Vicksburg Herald and a copy of this paper was sent to the Outlook by President Roosevelt with a recommendation that it be published. After the introductory remarks Mr. Percy said: The statement is daily heard that education ruins the Negro as a laborer, and that we should not be burdened with educating him. I want to enter my protest against both assertions. I deny that education impairs the usefulness of the Negro; I deny the assertion that we should not educate him. It is idle to talk about stopping the education of the Negro; it is "kicking against the pricks." There is no voluntary retrogression in civilization. You might as well try to stop the rising tide of the ocean, or to turn back the hands of time. If we should cease to furnish the means for his education, on the theory that it is better to keep him in ignorance, a theme would be furnished by which millions would be obtained from other sections of this country for his education. The money would come from remote sections of the country, and the instruction would be given by those hostile and alien to our wants, our needs and our problems, and a part of that education would be hostility to and hatred of us. No, this education must be given by the southern people, and through the instrumentalities which they provide. We taught him what he knew in slavery; we must teach him what he should know in freedom. If we could stop his education, we should not do so. I deny as an academic question that the Negro's usefulness is impaired by education. I deny that any man is rendered worse by having his intelligence quickened, his mental hosizon widened. I deny from observation and actual experience that a rudimentary education makes a Negro a more inefficient farmer. I own a place in Washington county entirely tenanted by Negroes. I do not believe that a more desirable set of Negro tenents can be found upon any property in the South, and more than 80 per cent of them can read and write. The most desirable class of Negro farmers in the Yazoo Delta are those who are able, as it is expressed, to "furnish themselves," that is, those who can procure from factors, or commission merchants, supplies for the year, instead of the planter being forced himself to supply them. They are the Negroes who either own small tracts of land, or, if they are renters, who have accumulated stock, farming implements, and other personal property. In a small way they can be called the pecuniary successes of their race. More than 90 per cent of this class of Negroes read and write But, be this as it may, you cannot send these men out to fight the battle of life helplessly ignorant. In slavery, he was the slave of one, and around him was thrown the protecting care of the master. In freedom you cannot, through the helplessness of ignorance, make him the slave of every white man with no master's protection to shield him. The Negro must be educated to the extent necessary to enable him to know whether he is being rightfully or wrongfully treated. Any other idea is monstrous and intolerable, because of its harshness and cruelty. But not as a matter of justice to him alone is his education necessary, but because the industrial development of the south demands it. One of the common results of education is that the Negro wishes to separate himself from the ignorant mass of his own race, and to go where he can be judged as a man on his individual merits; and when he goes, he takes just that much of the race problem with him and leaves the problem for us just that infinitely small step nearer solution. But, brethren of the bar, there is a reason which demands that the Negro should be educated sufficiently to know whether he is being honestly or dishonestly dealt with. It is not a reason that flatters our self-esteem; it is a reason that might not be discussed by one hampered with political aspirations—certainly not by a politician wont to tickle the ready vanity of the people by the laudation of their many virtues: but no abuse can be corrected no danger avoided unless its existence is first recognized. I assert that the education of the Negro, to the extent indicated, is necessary for the preservation of the character and moral integrity of the white men of the south Daily, in recognition of the weakness of human nature, the prayer goes up from millions to a higher Power: "Deliver us from temptation—temptation which I cannot face and overcome, I pray Thee to deliver me from." There is no greater temptation known to man than the hourly, daily, yearly dealing with an ignorant, trusting people. There has been no race known to history that could long withstand this deadly, insidious at tack. It has sapped and underminded, it is sapping and undermining, and it will sap, undermine and destroy, your integrity, my integrity, the integrity of your children and the integrity of my children. RACE NEWS Gathered from Various Sources. Let Afro-Americans open places of accommodation for the benefit of the general public and for exclusive accommodation of no one class. It's not to play even that such places exist, but to demonstrate that the drawing of the color line is not essential to the success of any business enterprise. In the recent examination of the Railway and Post Office clerks held at the Austin post office, Wednesday Oct. 16th. The average is as follows: Webb V. Smith, threw 569 cards, missed none, D. R. Woodard, thew 1092 missed 2, J. R. Thomas, 1130 missed 2, R. H. Majors, 1092, missed 7. Six white clerks examined at same time missed a total of 175 cards against 11 cards by the 4 colored clerks. Hattiesburg, Miss., Oct. 13. A resolution calling for separate schools for Italians, Syrians and Russian Jewish children in Hattiesburg has been adopted by the local Board of Education. It will be presented to the city council tomorrow night in an effort to obtain funds for erecting separate school building. Recent race antagonism in this vicinity, especially against Italians, is the cause for the resolution. The Governor of Mississippi has refused to sign any more charters for banks in that State to be conducted by colored men. This is Mr. Vardaman, who would go to the United States Senate for the purpose of defeating the Negroes of their electoral rights. His action appears smallish. The real matter, however, is unknown but it seems to be at one with his notion of making the colored people as uncomfortable as possible. Birmingham, Ala., Oct. 12.—Andrew J. Beard, a Birmingham Negro who had invented several car couplers and other appurtenances which are being adopted by various railroad systems throughout the country and which have netted him between thirty and forty dollars, has just patented an improved coupler and is about to close a deal for the sale to a Northern railroad for $10,000. Beard is ambitious to win the prize offered for the Government for the most perfect car coupler as a safely device. A recent dispatch from Trenton, NO. 5. N. J., says: "New Jersey Negroes have won in their fight for the right to establish an order of Elks, the attorney general having decided that Sunlight Lodge, No. 114, Improved and Protective Order of Elks, is no infringement of the name of the order composed of white men. The new lodge has accordingly been incorporated with the secretary of state. The white Elks have been making a strenuous fight against the formation of Negro lodges of the order." Easton, Pa., Oct. 17.—Expressing doubt as to the existence of a Divine Being, William L. Handy the colored man awaiting execution in the county fail for the slaying of Patrolman Shuman, at South Bethlehem, told a clergyman who called to-day that he intended to die without ministerial offices. "Had there been a God," he continued, "I believe He would have shown His power in that court room. He would have shown that I either did not kill that policeman or else was entirely irresponsible if I did kill him." Guthrie, O. T., Oct. 12.—The Mayor of the only town perhaps, in the world where not a white man lives, was killed in a street dual. The town is Boley, I. T., with a population of about 1000. J. R. Ringo, the Mayor, had rendered decision in his court against James R. Oldham, a farmer, and when the two Negroes, met on one of the main streets the following day both began shooting. Ringo was almost instantly killed, while Oldman escaped injuries. The farmer was placed under arrest after the several Negro police had quelled a riot, and he is now in jail. Okmulgee, Oct. 17.—Believing that his race should be separated from the whites and have a kingdom of their own, G. W. Washington, a wealthy colored citizen here, will go on a tour to the various Kingdoms in Africa to select a place to colonize the Negroes of this country. It is his desire to head a movement to take the Negroes back to Africa where they shall govern themselves and live among their own people. He will sail for Liberia Africa next month. In addition to visiting interior kingdoms of Africa, he will visit a number of French and English colonies. Washington was brought up at Houston, Texas. He is a horticulturist by trade, having learned it at school. He believes the Negro should be educated in an industrial way rather than in theory alone. He is a student of photography and will take a kodak with him. Washington will return to the United States next summer and report the result of his investigations.

ENTIRE VILLAGE RUINED FRIGHTENED CITIZENS SLEEP IN THE STREETS AND PRISONERS BEAT DOORS MADLY Rome.—At 6 o'clock on the evening of October 24th about 200 bodies were taken from the earthquake ruins. It is now estimated that the deaths will surpass 500, but it is impossible to get accurate information on this subject, as many villages are still cut off by the floods and the destruction of roads and telegraph lines, and no word from them can be had. The earth shocks continue, but they are slight. The people are still in a condition of apprehension, which is increased by each tremor. In spite of the torrential rain falling, they absolutely refuse to remain under cover. They have made their beds in the open. Mattresses have been spread about the squares and the fields surrounding the stricken villages and people are covering themselves and their children as best they may. Many thousand sands will pass the night in this manner. The only building that the frightened people will consent to enter are the churches, and even there they will not stay long. Sacred relices have been exposed in the Cathedral of Cantanzaro and this served in a measure to calm the population. This earthquake bids fair to rival that of 1905. Half the homes at St. Ferruzzano and Brancalcone collapsed and many persons were buried in the ruins, and at Sinopoli and St. Ilario more lives are said to have been lost. Panic prevailed everywhere. Half of the houses of the village of Gerace are in ruins, and similar conditions prevail in a number of other points in Calabria. During the confusion caused by the first earthquake the prisoners in the jail at Catanzaro mutinied and were only subdued with great difficulty, shouting and beating the doors until the whole place was in a terrible uproar. The prison officials did everything possible to calm the inmates but they broke out afresh every time another earth shock was experienced. WOMEN NEED THE CASH. Men Spend Too Much for Little Plea- ures That Count Up. Chicago.--"Men's smoking and drink- ing habits mean illegitimate expenses in the economic field and the tradi- tional necessity for satisfying these perverted masculine tastes is keeping women today in economic slavery." Such was the claim put forward before an audience of 200 women of the Social Service Club at 228 South Clark street by Mrs. Charles Henrotin, who spoke on "A Living Wage." She insisted that "women's legiti- mate expenses" are larger than man's and made this the basis of her argument. "The root of all the economic injustice from which woman suffers," said Mrs. Henrotin, "is found in the ancient but pestiferous fallacy that man has more legitimate expenses than women. Woman's legitimate expenses are greater than man's. "Most of men's expenses are not legitimate. None, or but few, of his expenses for tobacco are legitimate. And there are others. Now, how about a woman? She has bigger laundry bills, bigger medical bills, bigger dressmaker's bills. "Yet we have it dinned into our ears eternally that the reason a man gets larger pay than women is because his legitimate expenses are greater. What a travesty on the truth. "Why, the real facts are that woman by every lay of common sense and nature has infinitely more wants than man, and all that keeps her from getting the larger pay is the monstrously unjust system created by man for his own selfish ends during the ages when the world was in darkness and gave him the upper hand." Denver Supplies the Great West. Denver.—A contract for $200,000 worth of electrical supplies has been made by E. H. Harriman with the General Electric Company, through Gen. Irving Hale, manager of the Denver office. The order includes motors, switches and everything necessary for improving the Salt Lake City street car system, which is owned by Harriman. The lighting system in that city will also be improved. Harriman secured control of the Utah Light and Railway Company about a year ago. Prior to that time it was owned by the Mormon church. Since acquiring control Harriman has perfected plans for extending the electric lines, and will in the course of time create a number of interurban lines. General Hale has also closed a contract for equipping the new mill being built by the United States Portland Cement Company at Adobe, near Florence, Colorado. The motors will generate about 700 horse-power. A contract was also recently made by General Hale for equipping the mills of the North Homestake Mining Company at Maitland, near Deadwood, with electrical apparatus. The increased business of the General Electric Company in Denver has caused it to seek a larger warehouse, and has just taken possession of a warehouse on Delgany street between Fourteenth and Fifteenth streets, built by Williams & Alexander. The General Electric Company is financially interested in the Central Colorado and Eastern Colorado Power Companies. CRIPPLE MAKES GREAT STRIKE. Ore That Runs $38,000 a Ton Is Dug From Bull Hill. Cripple Creek, Colo.—A great strike has been made on the Dante property on Bull hill, where the largest body of high grade ore ever opened in a strong and permanent vein in the Cripple Creek district has been encountered. There have been numerous pockets of rich ore exposed and much greater values have been obtained from small streaks, but in no case has there ever been a seam of picture mineral over four inches wide that held out with development work. The high grade just opened in the Dante appears in an eight-inch streak and gives returns of from $17 to $24 to the pound, with an average value of $19 to the pound, or $38,000 to the ton. The streak lies in the center or core of a four-foot vein and is not simply a pocket or stringer, but a portion of a strong ore body. The vein was encountered several months ago and has been followed quite a distance, increasing both in size and value as development was carried on. Just four weeks ago today a three-inch seam of high grade was opened in the center of the vein and the work of separating and sorting the ore was begun. The vein since that time has been drifted on for a distance of twenty feet, with the rich streak gradually widening out, but not exceeding a width of four and a half inches until today, when a round of shots exposed it measuring eight inches across. The vein on either side of this high grade seam carries values of from two to five and a half ounces in gold. The property owned by the Dante Gold Mining Company, is under lease to the British American Mining Company. The leasing company tonight has 200 pounds of the ore sacked and a shipment will be made tomorrow with the expectation of obtaining returns of $4,000 from the small consignment. Escapes With $20,000. Wichita, Kas.—Sylvester Harrison, a noted character of southern Kansas, is missing from the city and charges have been filed against him in the Sedgwick county city court by Mrs. Katie Cathers, in which she alleges that he has with him $20,000 of her money, secured from her in what she claims was a clever real estate swindle. Harrison is a rich, retired farmer, who inherited $50,000 from his wife. He drew out of the local banks something like $20,000 and with the $20,000 drawn out of the National Commerce bank on a check signed by Mrs. Cathers, he left the city. Charles Carey, cashier of the National Commerce bank, saw Harrison place the $20,000 in currency in a grip. At the Fourth National bank he drew $2,500, placing it in the grip also. Three other banks report similar drafts from them, the money being placed in the grip Telegraph and telephone wires are being kept busy out of Wichita in an effort to locate Harrison. He stated to a local newspaper man that he had a scheme to clean up $20,000 last Tuesday. Besides the charge of embezzlement of the $20,000 from Mrs. Cathers, Harrison is also charged with passing spurious checks, aggregating over $1,000. The accused was shot through the head at Bonesteel, S. D., during the land opening at that place and since that time has been tried for insanity, but found sane. In these proceedings his only son was taken from his care by order of the probate judge. French Army Suffers Big Loss. Tangier.—According to semi-official information received at the Spanish legation the French forces at Casa Blanca under the command of General Drude, suffered a serious repulse at the hands of the Moors. Moorish troops estimated to number 7,000 men and equipped with field guns and modern rifles not only drove the French back to the city walls, but menaced the town to the extent that the French authorities found it expedient to request aid from a Spanish warship in the harbor to repel the attack. Castle Anfoos, located at Timsourin, near Mogador, which is known to hold half a million dollars, is endangered by the advance of the third division under Mual Hafig. The castle is being defended by Cald Anfoos himself, who represents Sultan Abdel Aziz in the south. The French troopship Artois left here hurriedly with troops and machine guns on board. This ship is going to the assistance of Cald Anfoos. The transportation of troops is seriously hampered by the lack of ships and the outrageous charges of the transportation companies. New Pastor is Installed. Longmont, Colo.—There was a large audience at the Central Presbyterian church to witness the ceremony of installing Dr. D. T. Robertson, of Toledo, Ohio, as pastor. Rev. C. F. Koebler of Boulder, moderator of the presbytery, presided. The sermon was preached by Rev. J. G. Klene of Boulder. Rev. J. W. Skinner of Fort Collins, delivered the charge of the people, and Rev. E. J. Statom of Berthoud, delivered the charge to the pastor. Rev. A. L. Chase of the Methodist church of this place, offered the prayer. After the installation, a reception was held by the congregation in honor of the new pastor. Heinze Is Up Aagain. Helena, Mont.-F. Augustus Helinze, if information received in Helena from New York is correct, is about to return to Helena to renew his fight against the Amalgamated Copper Company. This information comes from an attorney who is very close to Helinze, but whose name is withheld. It is declared that Helinze will enter the mines and will personally direct operations for a time. Helinza mining men believe that upon the arrival of Helinze the copper mines of the state will be again operated to full capacity. The Amalgamated's output in this state has recently been curtailed fifty per cent. WHAT IS PE-RU-NA? Is it a Catarrh Remedy, or a Tonic, or is it Both? Some people call Peruna a great tonic. Others refer to Peruna as a great catarrh remedy. Which of these people are right? Is it more proper to call Peruna a catarrh remedy than to call it a tonic? Our reply is, that Peruna is both a tonic and a catarrh remedy. Indeed, there can be no effectual catarrh remedy that is not also a tonic. In order to thoroughly relieve any case of catarrh, a remedy must not only have a specific action on the mucous membranes affected by the catarrh, but it must have a general tonic action on the nervous system. Catarrh, even in persons who are otherwise strong, is a weakened condition of some mucous membrane. There must be something to strengthen the circulation, to give tone to the arteries, and to raise the vital forces. Perhaps no vegetable remedy in the world has attracted so much attention from medical writers as HYDRASTIS CANADENIS. The wonderful efficacy of this herb has been recognized many years, and is growing in its hold upon the medical profession. When joined with CUBEBS and COPAIBA a trio of medical agents is formed in Peruna which constitutes a specific remedy for catarrh that in the present state of medical progress cannot be improved upon. This action, reinforced by such renowned tonics as COLLINSONIA CANADENIS, CORDALIS FORMOSA and CEDRON SEED, ought to make this compound an ideal remedy for catarrh in all its stages and locations in the body. From a theoretical standpoint, therefore, Peruna is beyond criticism. The use of Peruna, confirms this opinion. Numberless testimonials from every quarter of the earth furnish ample evidence that this judgment is not over enthusiastic. When practical experience confirms a well-grounded theory the result is a truth that cannot be shaken. NO STAIN ON HIS RECORD. That's Where the Driver Had the Best of the Preacher. A New York clergyman, who often spends his vacation in fishing the streams of the Adirondacks, was on one trip adopted by a handsome settler dog, which insisted on following him from camp to camp, as he moved along the stream. One day he met a party of men working upstream with a native guide. The guide immediately recognized the dog as his own property. "Trying to steal my setter, are you?" he shouted at the clergyman. "I'll have you to jail for this! There's a law in the woods just as big as you have in the city." The clergyman endeavored to explain that he was an unwilling companion of the dog, which had refused to be driven away, but to little effect until he added a two-dollar bill to his arguments. "It's queer what strange things happen to a man up here," he said to the stage-driver who later carried him away from the woods. "That is the first time I was ever accused of stealing a dog." "Yes, sir," replied the driver, sympathetically, and added, after a moment's pause. "For myself, sir, I have never been accused of stealing anything."—Youth's Companion. Signs of the Times. In the household department of a farm magazine we find the following communications: "I am willing to exchange a well preserved copy of Browning's poems for some geraniums."

A man and his wife were once staying at a hotel when in the night they were aroused from their slumber by the cry that the hotel was on fire. "Now, my dear," said the husband, "I will put into practice what I have preached. Put on all your indispensable apparel and keep cool." Then he slipped his watch into his vest pocket and walked with his wife out of the hotel. When all danger was past he said: "Now you see how necessary it is to keep cool." The wife for the first time glanced at her husband. "Yes, William," she said, "it is a grand thing, but if I were you I would have put on your trousers."—Boston Herald. Error in the Mails.

WEICHHAM Denver, Cola Denver, Colo NOW IS THE TIME TO BUY COLORADO LAND WILL NEVER BE SO CHEAP AGAIN, IS THE GENERAL OPINION. THE WEST MUST FEED THE EAST AND FURNISH BREAD- STUFF FOR WORLD. Denver:Asked for an interview on the land situation in Colorado, James E. Young, secretary of the State Commercial Association, said: No one, I think, will dispute the statement that Colorado lands are never going to be any cheaper than they are at the present time. No one, either, I think, will deny that in all probability Colorado lands will continue to increase in value from day to day, from month to month, and from year to year. As a matter of fact, land values all over the state are on the increase. This increase is a healthy growth. It is not the result of a boom. It is the result of natural conditions. Colorado is growing and growing faster than most people have any idea of. Colorado not only is growing in population, but in every other way. Just as night follows day so must all lines of industry follow in the wake of a rapidly growing population. Colorado's mining industry was never in better shape than it is at the present day; Colorado's manufacturing industries are growing with every passing day; Colorado live stock interests, always great, and always to be great, are growing, and Colorado is taking her place as the greatest of all agricultural states in the Union. Is there any wonder, then, for the increase in the value of Colorado lands that is going on? A few specific instances gathered at random from different sections of the state will suffice to illustrate the point. William Richmond this week sold nineteen acres of fruit land east of Grand Junction to H. W. Patten for $15,680. This is a little over $825 per acre. A pretty fair price for agricultural land, is it not? Yet the purchaser thinks he secured a bargain, and there is no reason to believe otherwise. From his nineteen acres of fruit he will make a very nice investment on his money. And yet a few years ago, before water was put on the land and the orchard was planted, this land was considered good for but little, if anything. One day's record of transactions in the office of the clerk of Mesa county aggregated $30,380. There were but four deeds recorded at that. Doesn't this one little fact show as well as anything the ever increasing value of land in that section of the state? Two years ago X. A. Lambert purchased a section of land in the East Fleming precinct of Logan county. He paid $2,000 for it. A few days ago he refused $6,000 for the land. A clear gain of $4,000 in two years and a good living made off the land at that. Charles Smith of Kersey, in Weld county, last week sold his eighty-acre farm for $10,000 cash. He retained this year's crop, which he values at $4,000. Four years ago he bought this property for $3,500. His crop this year is worth more than the original price of the land, to say nothing of his living. The $16,000 that he now has in his inside pocket is practically all clear gain. Harvey Miller bought a farm near Le Roy a year ago for $1,800. Last week he sold it to a Holyoke man for $2,700, a rise of over fifty per cent, in value in a year. And so it goes all over the state. The lesson? Buy land now. Some transactions of considerable magnitude have been noted during the week just closed in lands outside of Denver. The purchase by D. O. Mobery of Ault and a syndicate of Denver men of 12,000 acres lying between Limon and Hugo and Union Pacific railway for $200,000 was perhaps the biggest recorded during the week. Included in the purchase is a reservoir with 8,000 acre-feet of water in it. The company will build a new dam and will increase the size of the reservoir and will then put the property on the market. About 8,000 acres will be irrigated and 4,000 acres devoted to dry farming. H. Bert Cave bought from L. M. Priddy of Pierce 195 lots in the townsite of Pierce for $6,000. Pierce has grown within the last few months from an insignificant little railway sliding to a town of considerable importance. The extension of Colorado's great irrigation system is responsible for the growth. The new townsite of Silt on the western slope was laid out last week. Silt is in the center of a rich country where fruit will grow to perfection and where all sorts of crops will do exceedingly well. Land in the vicinity is bringing from $50 to $100 per acre at the present time, but it is sure to advance within five years to a price that will measure up with other fruit lands of the slope. The old Pawnee ranch in Logan county, which for a score of years was one of the biggest and best known ranches in eastern Colorado, has been sold to two Iowa men. There were 2,400 acres and all of the unsold lots of Merino included in the purchase. The price paid for the property was about $100,000. Surveyors are now at work on the property dividing it up into forty-acre tracts. New ditches will be run wherever needed and many of the lots of Merino will be improved also. Sixty families are expected to come at once from Iowa to settle on the land and 100 more families are expected within a year. The new owners say that within a year they will have a family on every forty acres in the tract. These hustling lowans with push and capital are the sort of men who are making Colorado bigger and better. GERMANY WINS BALLOON RACE. Wonderful Flight Made by Many Contestants for World's Record.

"Lotus II. (English), Brewer, pilot, landed at Memphis, O., 5:10 p. m., Oct. 22—375 miles. St. Louis.—Proclaimed as the most remarkable balloon contest in the history of the world's aeronautics, with every racing record broken, the second international cup competition which started from here Monday last, ended with Germany accorded the winning laurels. The finish of the race was the closest and most exciting the followers of the sport have ever known, the victorious German balloon, the Pommern, which landed at Asbury Park this morning, having by slightly more than five miles the advantage of the French contestant, "L'Isle de France," second in the race, which descended during the afternoon at Herbertsville, N. J., a few miles from the Atlantic coast and slightly northwest of Point Pleasant. Another German Balloon, the Dusseldorf, stands third in the race. American entries are fourth and fifth, a third German team is sixth, a French team seventh, an American eighth, and the English ninth. The unofficial estimated air line flight of the Pommern is 880 miles, and that of the L'Isle de France is 875. The Dusseldorf third, which landed near Dover, Delaware, is estimated to have covered 790 miles. The official measurements will be computed at the geological survey of the United States government at Washington. Only the proximity of the Atlantic ocean stopped the wonderful flight of the Pommern. The balloon could have remained in the air many hours longer, and undoubtedly would have added several hundred miles to her record but for the expanse of water ahead. ROCKKEFELLER COMES TO RESCUE. New York,—John D. Rockefeller has taken an active interest in the present financial situation, and he has arranged to loan large sums to a number of New York financial institutions. "I think," said Mr. Rockefeller, to a representative of the Associated Press this afternoon, "that the existing alarm among investors is not warranted, and I hope the good, common sense of American people will control the situation. Personally I have absolute faith in the future values of our securities and the soundness of underlying conditions. "Instead of withdrawing any of my money from the banks, I am co-operating with others in helping to meet that which I firmly believe to be only a temporary crisis. Every one having the good of his country at heart should by word and deed lend a hand now to re-establish confidence, and I propose to do my part to the full extent of my resources." The crisis in New York financial circles is safely passed. After prolonged conferences at J. P. Morgan's office, an organization of the presidents of New York trust companies was effected, not different in principle from the Clearing House Association. It is in the nature of a protective combination. All of the leading and admittedly conservative trust companies participated. John A. Stewart, chairman of the board of the United States Trust Company, presided and was elected chairman of a committee whose duties are to be analogous to those of the clearing house committee. A resolution was unanimously adopted providing for an examination of the various trust companies and a report of their findings to the association. Pittsburg.—Harry Thaw and his wife, Evelyn Nesbit Thaw, have officially conveyed to the full-blood brothers and sisters and mother of Thaw, their interest in four pieces of real estate in this city, amounting to $130,000. The deeds were filed this afternoon. The interest in the properties is consigned by Mr. and Mrs. Thaw to Mrs. Mary Thaw, the mother of Harry; to Margaret Carnegie, the wife of George Lalder Carnegie, a sister; to Alice (Countess of Yarmouth), a sister, and to Josiah Copley Thaw. The deeds are for four pieces of property and the value conveyed in the deeds amounts to $130,000. It is thought by some that Harry Thaw is conveying the property to his relatives for the purpose of raising money with which to conduct his next trial, but there is another report that Harry Thaw will convey all of his property to his mother, brothers and sisters in order to escape the many suits recently instituted against him. Additional suits are likely to be filed, and it is said that he has been advised to transfer all holdings to relatives in order to protect his fortune. Price & Co. LADIES WEARING APPAREL 916 16TH ST.

THE PRESIDENT of the United States has been shooting up Bruinville. He and his bloodthirsty companions, like midnight assassins, crept upon Bruinville when her unsuspecting population were fast asleep, and with a fusilade drove them into the canebrakes. Three citizens of Bruinville are reported dead, and it is claimed that the President himself killed one of them, and was so happy over it that he hugged his fellow assassins for joy. An examination of the village after the fight reveals the fact that one hundred shots were fired from Spring-field rifles belonging to the Twenty-fifth Infantry, but not one of the parties concerned will admit that anybody but the President did any firing. This conspiracy of silence to protect those who are really guilty calls for the severest condemnation of the entire company, and, if persisted in, their discharge without honor. RACE ENTERPRISE THE subject, "What Can be Done to Promote Race Enterprise?" which was discussed at the Men's Sunday Alliance last Sunday, was interesting from many points of view, but few of the speakers expressed really practical ideas in the case. It is not the lack of money or the lack of interest that deters race enterprises, but rather the lack of good judgment and rational effort. The enterprise rightfully begins with and depends upon the individual and not the masses or any co-operative blundering. The individual must have a little capital, but more energy, insight and pluck. He must go into a business that is a necessity and make that business so attractive that people will want its service and think they must have it. If the people want and need what you have to sell, and trading with you seems a profit or convenience or pleasure to them, they will patronize you and your business will be a success. No business is built up in a day. A small beginning, if carefully watched, patiently adhered to and gradually enlarged, will eventually become a representative enterprise. People trade where they think they can do well, not where their only motive is to help others. Men go into business for themselves, not for their race. So all business men are bound to study the conditions they will have to meet, and meet those conditions better than anybody else does, if possible. There is no sentiment in business, no matter what the race or the conditions. TILLMAN IN DENVER THE character of Ben Tillman, the Democratic senatorial freak from South Carolina, who disgraces a seat in the United States Senate, is well known to the people of the United States. With brains and force enough to put him at the head of a party organization in his state, he is yet a freak, a monstrosity, a misfit in the United States Senate. Always fierce, radical and extravagant in his expressions upon any question, he is ridiculously and frightfully so upon all matters involving the relations of white and black races, and has well earned the sobriquet of "Negro hater." There is never a more sorry sight, never a more cowardly caricature, than when a white man of reputed brains, character and force, uses a tribunal of the high dignity of the United States Senate to hurl wild anathemas and declarations of inferiority and inequality at the struggling black people of this or any other country, as has the one-eyed Tillman, who spoke at the First Baptist Church in this city last night. Such remarks are always out of place, as is also Mr. Tillman when he occupies a pulpit, as well as a seat in the United States Senate. There is but one thing that will ever remove the monstrous, vicious race prejudice that is part of the life of some people in the United States, and that is death. To believe that they faithfully represent any great portion of the governing forces among the inhabitants of the United States, would be to completely and eternally discourage all future prospects of the Negro. Tillman represents nothing so much as the bitter acrimony of a selfish soul. His public service, because of its dwarf application, must carry many of the ingredients of failure; his private life, because of its narrow, selfish measure, must put him out of touch with the higher and better things of human nature; his inability to realize his own presumption in interpreting the works and the will of God, must bring down upon him the all-devouring wealth of heaven, whose justice he define and whose love and intelligence he insults. The wonderful rapidity with which the world is becoming enlightened bodes good for the down-trodden peoples and ill to their traducers and prosecutors. The paltry politics of ignorant and presumptive men, who by fleeting circumstances have been brushed into positions of seeming prominence, can have no more to do with the sweep of human destiny than can the windy drivelings of such men as Tillman have to do with the blowing and listing of the trade winds. Men who realize and regard the subline obligations entailed by popular trust and delegated authority, abhor that trivial spirit which leads some to debate, gamble upon the mighty designs of a Creator who made of one blood all men who dwell upon the face of the earth. Ben Tillman is a freak, and there are many others like him in this land of prejudice and passion. The Public Library Is Reaching Out For Children By DR. HORACE G. WADLIN, Librarian Boston Public Library. HE love of books, as a source of innocent enjoyment; the help of books, in the development of intellectual power, the enrichment of the life of the adult that comes from these, must find their origin in the opportunities of childhood, such as the public library supplies. T The work of the library with children is twofold, indirectly, by cooperation with the schools, and directly, through its own agencies. In cooperation with the schools, it provides the teacher with books helpful in her work, and sends to the schoolroom deposits of volumes, frequently renewed, to be read by her pupils under her direction. Besides this, however, every well-equipped public library now has a special department for children, with reading tables reserved for them; and, displayed on open shelves, from which they may be taken without formality, a carefully selected collection of such books as children love-stories, travel, history, biography and nature books, with attendants to help in the selection of such volumes as will interest, instruct, or inspire the boys and girls who come to the library for something to read. The walls of the children's room, if the library is so fortunate as to have a separate room for young readers, are made attractive by pictures that appeal to children. Occasionally a story-hour brings the children there to listen to an interesting and profitable tale, told by someone who knows how to attract and hold their attention. From time to time picture bulletins, posted in the room, illustrate so as to impress the child mind some noteworthy event, it may be the return of the birds in the spring, or the coming of the circus with its train of animals, or the birthday of a statesman, or an important anniversary. The children's librarian is selected for her engaging qualities with children and her knowledge of the best books for the young. The children soon learn to know her as counselor and friend. Thus the library reaches out for the children, and seeks to draw them through its influence, into that wonderful world of books, within whose boundaries are never-failing springs of pleasure and of power. The advantages possessed by a few especially favored children in homes of exceptional culture and refinement, the public library, in even larger measure, offers freely to all children. Its work in this direction cannot be overestimated. In the crowded quarters of our large cities, it takes the children from the streets and provides for their entertainment and instruction. In remote country districts it sends into the home the volume that, by picture and word portrays the great world beyond the child's horizon. It helps to Americanize the child of the immigrant, and offers him advantages denied to his parents in the land from which they came. It supplements the schools, and in its special field carries the work of education into broader channels, laying a foundation for intelligent citizenship with books, an important element in sane, virtuous, helpful, happy, living. Someone has said that a great love for books is like a personal introduction the public library aims to give to the children. Trade Towers Over Cross By DR. COLUMBUS POLK GOODSON, St. Louis Pastor. Trade Towers Over Cross By DR. COLUMBUS POLK GOODSON. St. Louis Pastor. This is an age when the temples of trade tower above the holy cross on the spires of the houses of God. In this generation every man is fleeing from individual responsibility. But woe to any people whose merchandise shuts out God. It is not denied that every man has the right to become righteously rich. But our riches may easily become our death—death to great convictions—to high and holy ideals. Something is wrong if goods increase and men decay—if merchants buy silver in exchange for souls—if rich purples are woven, and the red stain is the blood of poor widows' fingers. Commercial prosperity does not necessarily mean a national righteousness; neither are we always good because we have grown wise. Solomon never was more wicked than when he had gotten great wisdom, and Babylon was never in such a period of prosperity, and never was there such feasting as the very hour when the hand was writing its doom on the wall. It would be well if the citizens of this, the great nation, would give attention to personal righteousness. "We must look to the moral life if the nation is to remain. The integrity of the home, the very foundation of the government, is threatened because we have neglected the fundamentals for the making of permanent and happy homes. Children are no better now than they were twenty-five years ago. Sometimes I think they were better behaved in those days. Parents had no mistaken ideas at that time about the duties of the teacher. Children started off for School Children Need Spanking By NATHAN S. JONAS. School Commissioner, Brooklyn, N. Y. Children are no better now than they were twenty-five years ago. Sometimes I think they were better behaved in those days. Parents had no mistaken ideas at that time about the duties of the teacher. Children started off for school and were compelled to cross car tracks and busy streets to get there. And once inside we all realized that the teacher was boss. You can't teach a child unless he has respect for you, and to my mind cultivation of respect for one's elders should receive more attention. With the abolition of corporal punishment the unruly child has been inclined to take advantage of the kindness of men and women who are giving the best part of their lives to develop good citizens. At present a teacher can request a boy to behave and if he refuses send him home. No matter how much that unruly pupil talks back to the teacher, the latter is helpless to correct his conduct. Such an exhibition has a demoralizing effect on the pupils. I believe a rattan or a ruler will answer the purpose, but my early experience convinces me that a ruler covers the most ground.

Refreshments SOCIAL CLUB R, COLO. GMAN, MGR. 2552 Washington Ave BACHELOR GIRL SAYS No man is a hero to his trained nurse. No man is really blase who retains a singl ideal. No man yet was so high up that his wife couldn't call him down. Men do the head work of the world, but women are the headrests. When a girl gives a man the mitten he very often returns her glove. Men allow their wives pin money and then expect them to buy tiaras. Man was made from dust first, so that woman might sweep all before her. The brilliancy of many a society leader depends largely upon her jewel box. The last mermaid died of shock at the sight of the first man in his bathing suit. Men select their wives much as women buy books—chiefly because of a pretty cover. One great difference between men and women is that women pray over what a man swears at. Many a man marries a girl because she is as "pretty as a picture" and then growls at the price of her picture hats. You can't expect a woman on the box seat of a coach to realize that she will look like a perfect fright while she's getting down. Who knows most about the "strenuous life"—a man who talks about it after he's grown up, or the mother who helped him cut his first teeth? Many a woman depends upon her husband's club to keep her supplied with gossip—Kansas City Star. HOW MANY— Women are unwelcome visitors to other women? Pretty girls build up false ideas of their own importance? Young men think it smart to boast of their influence over girl friends? Wives try the patience of a husband by fretting over the little ills of life? Women struggle to secure a social position which they know they are unfitted to hold? Men like to go one better than the other fellow in the recital of exaggerated yarns? Husbands make their wives unhappy by polite attention to women acquaintances? Women of mature age act as though they really believed themselves still in girlhood days? Men make cutting remarks to create the impression they have a superabundance of information? Men are disposed to pat themselves on the back for turning a sharp corner?—Philadelphia Bulletin. NEXT MORNING PHILOSOPHER The cynic is merely the child of indigestion. "Let well enough alone," but make sure that it is well enough. No matter how hard a duck may quack it will never win a cock fight. A postponed coronation, like a postponed dinner, loses much of its flavor. Falsehood turns its back on truth and he who looks through the one may often see the other. A man may be a fool, as the world goes, and yet possess finer traits of character than many a learned man. People who have work and are able and willing to do it, and who can eat well and sleep soundly, are, in reality, the favored class. When a man begins to get up in the world he is surprised at the number of people who are ready and anxious to help him down again. Some one has been trying to prove that morality and honesty are matters of climate. If this be so the climatic streaks are absolutely incomprehensible. Great Difference. When you see a man take his hat off to you, it is a sign that he respects you. But when he is seen divesting himself of his coat, you can make up your mind that he intends you shall respect him.

THE NATIONAL IS SAFE PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT THINKS BREAK CAME BECAUSE OF HIS HUNT AFTER CRIME. New York.—The Knickerbocker Trust Company, the second iargest trust company in New York city, with de- posits amounting to about $60,000,000, closed its doors October 22, following a stealy run of persons who called to withdraw their deposits. The company officials declared that the suspension of payment was only temporary. The closing of the doors of the Insti. tution was attended with sensational scenes at {ts main banking room and the Harlem branch. Depositors who crowded the rooms clamoring for thetr money were insistent that they be per- mitted to withdraw even a few dollars and when this request was refused many declined to leave the building. Police assistance was necessary to pre- serve order. At the main office, Fifth avenue and Thirty-fourth street, after the doors were closed, the crowd surged its way inward. ‘he police forced them back to the street again and from time to time a guard was kept in front of the entrance. The stock market:was very weak and declined sharply in spite of the early efforts made to support the prices. Secretary of the Treasury Cortelyou announced from Washington that he would support the New York city na- tional banks, and it was understood tLat he would order the deposit of $67,- 000,000 of government funds in this elty a5 Soon as satisfactory security for the sum could be received. No Effect on Denver Banks. Denver.—The difficulties of the ‘Knickerbocker Trust Company of New York will in no way affect any Denver interests. Denver bankers are opti- mistic regarding the local situation and say that as far as they know the Knick- erbocker company does not represent any of the corporations doing business in Denyer and Colorado. ‘The condition of the banks in this city and the state was never better. It is estimated that there is $56,000,000 in deposits in the Denver banks alone. The latest statement of the national banks doing business in Denver was that of August 22d, and showed that the aggregate deposits of the national banks alone were about $52,000,000. ‘The crops in Colorado, with the ex- ception of the fruit crop, were larger than usual, and ‘the —_ sugar beat crop alone will mean, {t_is estimated, $15,750,000 to the state. Cattle and stock shipments are heavier than last year, there is an increased demand for fuel and all kinds of supplies, and the people of the ‘state-are optimistic. “The condition of the New York stock market does not worry us in the least,” says the Denver bankers, who ‘seem to think that the failure of the Knickerbocker Trust Company was ‘due to the company's fight with the |New York clearing house, upon which it depended for support. The embar- _rassment of this concern is not expect /ed to result in much injury to the | financial world outside of Wall street. | Denver bankers say that the Middle | West and West are no longer the play | things of Wall street and that depres | sions and panics there, while they will be reflected to some extent in all parts of the country, can do but little injury ! to other parts of the country. All Solid in Los Angeles. Los Angeles, Cal.—With the excep- tion of severe stringency in the money market, which has greatly restricted Icans, and a dullness in several lines of business which haye become over- crowded, the local financial situation is tranquil. The financial institutions are solid and no fear whatever Is felt Portland Safe and Sound. Portland, Ore—Edward L, ‘Thomp- son, president of the Portland Clearing House Association, made the following statement regarding banking condt- tions in Portland: “The financial situation in Portland fs remarkably good. The banks of Portland have more money on hand than at any time in their history. There is scarcely a bank in this territory that is not prepared for any emergency.” President Roosevelt Sums It Up. Nashville, Tenn.—President Roose- velt in bis address at the Auditorium sald: “There has been trouble in the stock market, In the high financlal world, during the past few months. ‘The statement has frequently been made that the policies for which 1 stand, legislative and executive, are responsible for that trouble. Now, these policies of mme can be summed up In one brief sentence. They repre- sent the effort to punish successful dishonesty, I doubt if these policies have any material effect in bringing about the present trouble, but if they have it will not alter in the slightest degree my determination that for the remaining sixteen months of my term these policies shall be perserved in unswervingly.” Dedicate New Church. Canon City, Colo—The new Chris tlan church, érected at a cost of $12, 000 on the corner of Seventh street and Harrison avenue, was dedicated Sun day by the Rey. W. O. Broeden of Iowa and the Rev. J.

One of the Interurban Rallways From Denver Hugties the Worle, Greeley, Colo.—Grading work on the electrical interurban line between Greeley and Denver will commence to- morrow morning with from twenty to thirty teams, by the Greeley & North. ern Railway and Utility Company, and work will be pushed as rapidly as men and teams can be secured, is the an- nouncement made here today. Representatives of the company have been working for the past two weeks securing rights of way and terminal fa. cilities for freight yards and stations in the eastern part of the city. All has either been bought outright or options taken. F. O. Olson, formerly an engineer of the Hill roads, is in charge of the work. The company is made up of Greeley men and St. Paul capitalists, and am- ple funds are at their disposal to push the work from now on, The company already has a franchise on certain of the streets here. This will be used for passenger lines, while the private right- of-way into the city will be used for freight. Tt is announced that the company will build and equip the road from this city to Evans, four miles south of here, and start cars running while pushing the grading south and west into the coal fields in the southern part of this county, Adams and Boulder counties. The line will connect with the Burling- ton railway at Idaho creek to start with, but as fast as the work can be rushed an Independent line is tobe built to Denver. ‘The Greeley & Northern Railway and Utility Company is one of the three different outfits planning inter- urban lines from here to Denver. All have completed surveys, and all have announced their intention of beginning active work within a few days, but the first-named company appears to have secured the lead in the matter of con- struction. The current will be rented until the power station in the coal fields can be constructed. Olson states that he will be ready for the ties and rails for the first four miles within thirty days and if the rail- roads can bring the material will have the line ready for operation by the first of the year. $11,500 of the Friseo Strike COUNTERMANDED SHOES They were made to sell at $3.50, $4 and $5 You Know Our Price For { 2 50) No more | Eee Men [ e NOLESS j Women Over 200 Styles of Women’s Shoes and Oxfords and 170 Styles of Men’s Shoes and Oxfords.

G. Fred Nicholas has filed a damage claim for $10,000 against the Colorado Springs & Interurban Street Railway Company in the District Court. The action is the outgrowth of an alleged fist fight with the conductor of a Man- itou car two mouths ago.

Inexpensive Mixture of Harmless Veg- etable Ingredients Said to Over- come Kidney and Bladder ‘Trouble Promptly. Here is a simple home-made mix- ture as given by an eminent authority on Kidney diseases, who makes the statement in a New York daily news- paper, that it will relieve almost any case of Kidney trouble if taken be- fore the stage of Bright's disease. He states that such symptoms as lame back, pain in the side, frequent desire to urinate, especially at night; painful and discolored urination, are readily overcome. Here is the recipe; try it: Fluid Extract Dandelion, one-half ounce; Compound Kargon, one ounce; Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla, three ounces. Take a teaspoonful after each meal and at bedtime. A well-known physician is authority that these ingredients are all harmless and easily mixed at home by shaking well in a bottle. ‘This mixture has a ‘peculiar healing and soothing effect ‘upon the entire Kidney and Urinary ‘structure, and often overcomes the worst forms of Rheumatism in just a little while. ‘This mixture is said to ‘remove all blood disorders and cure ‘the Rheumatism by forcing the Kid ‘neys to filter and strain from the blood ‘and system all urie acid and foul, de- composed waste matter, which cause the afflictions.

She had come into the. store to buy tablecloths and she stated in the be- ginning that she wanted something “new.” ‘The salesman was patient and showed her everything in stock, but ‘nothing suited. “Oh, dear!” she exclaimed, fussily, ‘haven't you anything different?” The clerk brought out one of the discarded tablecloths that he had put ‘back on the shelf, and said with an ate of interest: “Here is one of the very newest de- signs, madam.

These relics consist of a number of foreign and domestic coins, dating as far back as 1793.

In the late afternoon they watched the cows come home, heard with delight the tinkling cow- bells, and the little boy even went to the barus to see the milking done. ‘At supper, just as Derothy was lift ing her glass to her rosy lips, the boy cried out: “Oh, Dotty, don't? You musn’t drink that milk. It's not fit to drink. It came out of a cow; I saw it.” siabiba lina Winsted: Ben Cary had near his house a swamp, which was a breeding-place for herds of man-eating mosquitoes.

OLD SOAKERS Get Saturated with Caffeine, When a person has used coffee fora number of years and gradually de- clined in health, {t is time the coffee should be left off in order to see whether or not it has been the cause of the trouble. A lady in Huntsville, Ala., says she used coffee for about 40 years, and for the past 20 years has had severe stomach trouble. “I have been treat- ed by many physicians but all in vain. Everything failed to give relief. Was prostrated for some time, and came near dying. When I recovered sufi ciently to partake of food and drink 1 tried coffee again and it soured on my stomach. “I finally concluded that coffee was the cause of my trouble and stopped using it. I tried tea in its place and then milk) but neither agreed with me; then I commenced using Postum, had it properly made and it was very pleasing to the taste. “I have now used it four months, and my health {s so greatly improved that I can eat almost anything I want and can sleep well, whereas, before, 1 suffered for years with insomnia, “I have found the cause of my trou- bles and a way to get rid of them.

Experiences, Joys and Sorrows of the Human Existence. | The loves and friendships of indi- viduals partake of the frail character of human life, and are brief and un- certain. The experience of a human life may be shortly summed up: A little loving and a good deal of sor- rowing; some bright hopes and many bitter ‘disappointments; some gor- geous Thursdays when the skies are bright and the heavens blue, when Providence, bending over us in bless: ings, glads the heart almost to mad- ness; many dismal Fridays, when the smoke of torment beclouds the mind and undying sorrows gnaw upon the heart; some high ambitions and many Waterloo defeats, until the heart be- comes like a charnel house filled with dead affections, embalmed in holy but sorrowful memories; and then the chord is loosed, the golden bowl is broken, the individual life—a cloud, a vapor, passes away.—Matthew Hale Carpenter. SKIN SORE EIGHT YEARS. Spent $300 on Doctors and Remedies but Got No Relief—Citicura | Cures in a Week. “Upon the limbs and between the toes my skin was rough and sore, and also sore under the arms, and I had to stay at home several times because of this affection. Up to a week or so ago I had tried many other remedies and several doctors, and spent about three hundred dollars, without any success, but this {s today the seventh day that T have been using the Cuticura Reme- dies (costing a dollar and a half), which have cured me completely, so that I can again attend to my business. I went to work again to-night. I had been suffering for eight years and have now been cured by the Cuticura Reme- dies within a week. Fritz Hirschlaft, 24 Columbus Ave., New York, N.

A jeweler in Third avenue, New York ‘city, advertises “Wedding rings purchased here will be stretched to any size without extra cost.” His en- terprise is based on a knowledge of human frailty, “The girl often hap- pens to balk,” he says, “and the fel- low gets it in the neck. The ring for that intended may not fit the finger of the next intended; so I stretch it for nothing. I have stretched rings as many as five times for one man.” Why not use rubber rings?

A great tenor had been singing for some hours into a phonograph. “The phonograph,” he said, “is a wonderful thing. It almost realizes the wish of the Scottish poet, the wish that we might see ourselves as others see us. We can now, at least, hear ourselves, a thing impossible before. ‘The phonograph teaches us many val- uable lessons. When I was in the army, before I realized the capabilities of my voice, I played the flute. A phonograph salesman brought a phonograph to my quarters and tried to sell it to me on the instalment plan. I was undecided. Finally the man took out a blank cylinder. “See, he said, rather reluctantly, ‘here is a blank cylinder, You may make a record on it, then we will run it off and you shall hear yourself. It's @ costly favor I am doing you, but it will show you what a fine instrument this is.” _ “I was delighted. “‘T'll get my flute,’ I said. ‘T'll play a flute solo.’ “Well, I played my best into the ma. chine. It seemed to me that I had never combined before such feeling with such accuracy. I was more than pleased with myself. Then the man put in the cylinder, and the music be gan to issue forth. I frowned. “‘Is that me? I said, “Yes, sir, said the man. “Really me, just as I played?” “‘Precisely, sir, precisely. And now,’ said he, “do you want to buy the phonograph? “No, said I; ‘I want to sell the fute'” ‘The Sinful Human Heart. A clergyman -was addressing a youthful class in Sunday school. ‘To iMlustrate the idea of regulating the sinful human heart he took out his watch and held it up that all might see it. “See this watch,” he said. “Just imagine that it does not keep good time—that it goes all ways but the right way. What ought I to do with it?” Instantly a little boy held up his hand. “I know!” he shouted . “Sell it to a friend.” Hospital Story-Telling. It is curious that philanthropists in search of a novel means of doing good do not engage reciters and story: tellers to visit hospitals and amuse the patients. A rich man in New York engaged Marshall P. Wilder, the diminutive entertainer, who has given pleasure in nearly every city, to visit regularly certain hospitals in New York. Mr. Wilder was welcomed en: thusiastically by the convalescent pa: tients, and his merry stories did them good. % pean EUCAS Courr, | f Be Faaxx JGupser tikes oath chat he te sentor piniarod the arn of Fe Chay @oo ta stagna in ‘tho City ot Toledo, Couniy. and Sint tgreunta nad nat ata Sein wht pay tie sun OMPMUNDRED DOULATS Tor. cach ‘und ‘overt Qiao Garrats iher seauot be cured by ibe tees Hitate Garaana Comm: FRANK J. cHEYEY.

His brother-in-law, Dr. Porter, the master of Peterhouse, another famous English school, wrote him, inquiring his precise meaning in a certificate that a boy’s character was “general- ly” good. “When I say generally,” he replied, “IT mean not particularly.” The extraordinary popularity of fine white goods this summer makes the choice of Starch a matter of great im- portance. Defiance Starch, being free from all injurious chemicals, is the only one which is safe to use on fine fabries. Its great strength as a stiffener makes half the usual quantity of Starch necessary, with the result of perfect finish, equal to that when the goods were new.

The Colorado Statesman 1824 CURTIS STREET ROOM 25. --- SMART FALL GOWNS The first costume displayed above is one of the new striped and long-coupled variety. The pattern is a soft green against a dark grey ground interwoven with faint flecks of color. The coat is all bound with braid, and further adorned with buttons of the striped tweed centered with braid; a green velvet collar, and a waistcoat of green cloth, where fine braiding is wrought in scrolls, being further decorative details, while the silk lining must by no means be forgotten. On the skirt graduated bands of cloth, where the stripes are arranged in contrasting form, are edged with stitching, and each finished off with one of those effective buttons so popular now. The other costume represents an equally leading mode. It is made of fine face cloth, the coat, silk lined and the braiding which forms its chief trimming of considerable elaboration, the back, too, being entirely covered by the lines of silken braid, whose graceful inward curve at the waist and outward spread on the little basque have such a good effect on the figure. It looks especially well in nut-brown cloth with braidings in black, and a contrast of bright green velvet on the collar which is edged first with a fine white and gold, and then with the broad black braid, cuffs to match holding in thefulness of the sleeves below the elbow. Then the almost inevitable and very decorative waistcoat repeats the note of green and the pretty scheme of braiding, while as to the skirt, its panel pleatings are connected by a braided device, the whole arrangement being entirely novel and vastly smart. HAT CHAT G RACEFUL indeed to some faces are the new shapes of the cloche hats, which show a variation from the ubiquitous all-around shape. They are turned up slightly at the left side, close to the front, and as a result lose their quaint "mushroom" look and gain in smartness. Satin and taffetas hats will be all the rage this winter, especially sat in for occasions of ceremony. In all cases the material will be drawn tightly over the shape and the best milliners use some mysterious paste to make the material stick close. Amateurs may be pleased to know that the stuff used by makers of waterproof repairs is an excellent thing for making thick satin cling to a hat shape, but, of course, sufficient time must be given for the distinctly disagreeable odor to wear off. Another new hat which is making a strong bid for favor, is that with the brim much broader at the sides than at front or back; in fact, the front and back of these new hats are quite short, and the sides jut out in a most imposing manner. These hats are not every woman's wear; they demand a special style of hairdressing. The hair must be carried back over large frizzettes at the sides and dressed very loosely. The whole effect is rather quaint, as the trimmings on these hats follow the outline of the shape, with the result that at the front and back the hat looks very large and en profile it seems as small as a toque! And yet another novelty—this time in the world of veils. The newest vell is a length, measuring a yard and a half, of silk net covered with large chenil spots and worn in bird-cage style, without any edge or border! Personally, I think these veils exceedingly unfinished and not too becoming, but they are all the rage and adopted by the best-dressed women. This vell in the new shade of prune is in great favor, and worn with a black hat it is not without charm; dark green is also much worn, and, of course, taupe. The taupe fillet veils—bordered with tucks of chiffon are still in favor, but there is no doubt about the newest thing being the simple length of silk net, covered with very large chenil spots. We are slowly, but surely, saying lau revoir to the ultar-long vell, except for motoring. It has enjoyed a long and successful day and, notwithstanding its fine qualities, it could not remain in favor for ever. Hats are very much more expensive this autumn than before. Even the simplest of felt outing hats has gone up a peg. It is the most fatal of all economies to invest in a cheap hat. The price need not be high, but the velvet or felt should be of the best, for then a wetting will not injure it, dust may be readily brushed from it, it retains its color and is always satisfactory. Better have an expensive foundation and little trimming than good trimming and poor felt or velvet. In felts the soft French ones are the only first class felts. In outing hats where a stiff felt is required, one often has Johann Braunhoff 1917 A NEW AUTUMN MODE. Round Toque of White Felt Covered With a White Coq de Roche. take it, and while the best stiff felt is not as good as the average soft felt, there are different grades in it, and the best should always be purchased. Trimmings should, of course, also be of good quality, and if one cannot afford really fine ostrich plumes that will outlast several hats, it is better to get wings or quills and use fine velvets. Quill-trimmed hats cannot be worn with formal and elaborate costumes, so that of necessity some sort of plumes or rare wings are necessary. Living Up to Regulations. A number of small North Delaware street girls had opened a lemonade stand at the edge of the curb. The drink was in a large glass pitcher, with sliced lemons floating appetizingly at the top. One small girl, with a red crayon, had lettered the word "artificial" and leaned it against the pitcher. "What's that for?" inquired a passes by. "But why should you label it? Are not the water, the lemons, and the sugar pure?" "Yes." "Well, what's artificial about it?" "The ice."—Indianapolis News. Harvard Leads.

St. Louis.—The highest spire in St. Louis is being raised by the highest derrick in the world on St. Liborius' Roman Catholic church, at North Market and Hogan streets. Its pinnacle will soar 246 feet above the ground. The derrick, which has lifted its 890 tons of stone into place, goes 270 feet into space. The architect and builder of this modern monolith says it is the first grillwork spire in America, the entire steeple being constructed of stone lattice, giving free play to the heavy winds. The architectural beauty is impressive. Engineering applications in the construction of the spire are novel if not entirely new, says Joseph Conradi, 3420 Thomas street, who designed and built the steepele. Every piece of stone used in the steepele has been cut at the base of the tower by compressed air and holsted by this agency to the several stagings of the work. Pneumatic tubing is carried up the derrick to the successive stages. Stones weighing 50 pounds have been shot through these tubes to the workmen above and held in place by the force of the air until removed from the tubes. The spire is now within three feet of its pinnacle. Space for only three workmen remains. Two days more there will be room for only two workmen. When the last stone is placed several steel jacks will be employed in crowning the spire with its steel cap, 17 feet high. The derrick that has pushed the spire upward has grown like Jack's beanstalk from its original height of 120 feet to 270 feet by splicing the poles used in its construction. The pole derrick has, therefore, grown 150 feet in three months, the time it has required to complete the spire. FORCED MA TO EAT FAT. Schnepfe Divorce Suit Details Entertain the Baltimoreans. Baltimore, Md.—The Schnepfe divorce case—Caroline M. Schnepfe, aged 65, for divorce, attracted large crowds in circuit court No. 2, where it was tried before Judge Gorter. The testimony of Mrs. Schnepfe's daughter Caroline contained some rather remarkable statements. She declared that Mr. Schnepfe was unbearably stingy toward her mother, who said, shortly after the marriage, that she was a rich man's poor wife. She said that at the table Mr. Schnepfe would cut off the fat and other objectionable portions of his meat and put it on her mother's plate for her to eat. She said Mr. Schnepfe promised everything until he married her mother, and then his conduct and treatment of her was just the opposite of the promises. The case is somewhat of a curiosity as to the marriage relations of those involved. Mr. Schnepfe married Mrs. Schnepfe's sister and lived with her 40 years, until her death, and has grown sons. Mrs. Schnepfe, his present wife, is therefore his sister-in-law, and he is her husband and brother-in-law. Caroline and Emma, Mrs. Schnepfe's daughters by her former marriage, are his stepdaughters and his nieces, and he is their uncle and stepfather. Similar relationship exists, of course, between Mr. Schnepfe's sons and Mrs. Schnepfe, she being their aunt and stepmother. SUES BARBER FOR LOST HAT. Customer Wants $15 for Lid Stolen While Being Shaved. Greenwich, Conn.—As a test case to determine whether the law can compel the owner of a barber shop to make good the loss of wearing apparel, William C. Rungee, a lawyer, has brought suit against M. Passero, a Stamford barber, for $15 for the loss of his hat. Mr. Rungee while waiting the arrival of a train for New Haven went into Passero's shop to get shaved. He hung his hat, a new one, on one peg. When he went to leave the shop he found the initials "S. R." in its place. The barber told him to take it and catch his train and he would look up the missing hat. Several days later Mr. Rungee called on the barber and found that he had made no effort to regain his property. Again he called with a like result. The next time he called he was accompanied by Sheriff W. E. Ritch, who placed an attachment for the sum of $15. The law is not clear on the subject and there has never been a similar case, so far as is known, in any Connecticut court. To Get $223 for Cat's Board. Boston.—As payment for the board bill of an Angora cat Mrs. Elizabeth B. Myrer was allowed $223 in the municipal court. Mrs. Myrer testified that the cat was brought to her by Martha W. Merrill in April, 1903. She was to care for cat at two dollars a week. The cat sulked unless he had cream three times a day, tenderloin twice with a side order of salmon, until 1905, when his board bill was $308. Partial settlement was made and judgment was entered for the rest. War on All Big Pompadours. Pittsburg.—Managers of Pittsburg's big stores have declared war on the big pompadour, and scores of girls who insist on wearing their hair this way have been discharged, one of the leading stores letting 20 go at once without recommendations.
