VOL. XIV.
THE PR
Of the Races Outside of America.
Persecution and Oppression
Hatred. Parity is n
two Races in t
Wherever the tribes of mankind strive to dwell together, there springs up the eternal race problem, says the Erie (Pa) Herald. It is a problem with a myriad variant forms, but as old as the Tower of Babel. Moses solved one race problem by leading his oppressed people out of Egypt. Their descendants in many lands today know the bitterness of persecution and oppression that spring from racial hatred. It has been the never-broken rule that when fate has forced the men of two distinct races to dwell in the same land, their relations must be that of master and subject. Parity is not possible, for one must rule and the other serve, one must rule and the other serve, one must command and the other must obey. It is a rule founded not on justice, but on that far more powerful principal—prejudice.
While men in all parts of the globe are liable to similar troubles, says the Minneapolis Journal, British Columbia is now in the throes of an acute racial outbreak. Australia is legislating against the Japanese, the Chinese and the Hindu. The Transvall, made almost autonomous by the generosity of its imperial conqueror, is threatened with the dire faith of being utterly Asiaticized. Late advices from that South African colony gave details of a curious situation that has arisen in consequence of the colonial government's effects to make it a white man's country.
The South African blacks are not troublesome, but the British subjects that have flocked in from India are very much so. There are 12,000 of them in the Transvaal and many have become prosperous merchants and business men.
It was resolved, first of all, to find out what Asiatics were entitled to live there and a law was passed requiring them all to register for identification purposes. This law has been met with passive resistance. The government has been unable to secure the registration and is now confronted with the amonalous situation of having 10,000 Asiatics who are liable to fine, imprisonment and eventual deportation. Literal enforcement of the law is evidently impossible. And yet the Asiatics are gradually squeezing the Europeans out of earning their livehood.
Business depression spreads and the white exodus goes on. But the Asiatic trader survives and grows in numbers. He is thrifty and of good habits. But how is the sub-continent to be made the home of a white nation that will be a source of strength to the British empire?
America has her race problem, but she has no monopoly of them. Truth to say, England and her colonies have more of them than we, and they are mostly quite insoluble.
RACE NEWS
Gathered from Various Sources.
The Tennessee Drug Company is a late Negro enterprise at Coffeyville, Kas., under the management of Frank M. Eagleson, of Topeka.
Through the influence of Mrs. Wooly, an aristocratic white lady of Chicago, two young colored ladies have secured employment as clerks in one of the large State street stores.
Danville, Va., Oct. 30.—It is now believed that Armistead Craft, the colored man of Toshes, who was burned to death in his home, which was destroyed by fire Monday morning, was murdered for the purpose of robbing him. It was reported that he had saved a great deal of money.
Jonathan Ramsey, aged 81, who was Kent's only Negro citizen, in a population of 5,000, is dead. He was a slave in his youth, but was purchased by a Pennysylania man and brought North, who allowed him to work out the price paid. Ramey joined a Pennsylvania regiment and fought in the Civil War. He owned valuable property in Kent.
Louisville, Ky., is in line for another educational institution which will probably have an endowment fund of between $400,000 and $500,000, and which will be located in the country near the city, so as to be operated with farming and industrial features, according to announcement by the Rev. Dr A E. Thomas of Berea College, which is located at Berea, Ky.

DANIELS FRANCE
The Daniels & Fisher Stores Co.
As the year draws to a close and the holidays with their hallowed influences and broad and quickening human sympathies will soon be at our doors, it behooves us to pause for a moment amid our busy duties and give some thought to those things which the conventionalities of life by long usage demand. This season of peace and good will to all humanity gives fresh impulse to the ties of friendship and the love of dear ones. It is the season of good cheer and good deeds for others, kindly and unselfishly done. It manifests its presence in a variety of ways. We find it the time to trust ourselves to the long promised new suit or new dress, or perhaps merely a hat or pair of shoes—some article ornamental or useful, or, what is better, both. And it suddenly occurs to us how nice it would be to gladden the heart of some friend by some token of love or fond remembrance. A beautiful sentiment is this emotion. And it might manifest itself in a trifling souvenir, or in a more substantial and costly form, as our means or inclination may suggest. But the question naturally arising in the purchaser's mind is—Where can I get just what is most suitable to meet the exigencies of my case? The price and the value—these are the considerations the buyer of limited means must ever wrestle with.
The readers of the Colorado Statesman largely belong to this class. It will answer that question by referring to some of those stores where prices, values and treatment all harmonize and meet the varying wants of the customer.
With this end in view, we produce in this issue the above fine cut of the great department store known as The Daniels & Fisher Stores Company. This is the great pioneer dry goods store of the West. Its brilliant history is the history of Denver and the state of Colorado. To speak of Denver without mentioning this grand mercantile emporium would be to produce the play of Hamlet and leave out the melancholy Dane. It would be like a description of France with Paris left out. To tell of its origin, early struggles, its rapid growth and triumphant success, would read like a page from the Arabian Nights' Entertainment. This is not our purpose. We merely wish so early in the season to note where the best things may be obtained at the most reasonable prices and with the most courteous service. The interior of this store is in itself a dream. It is a magnificent creation of art, unsurpassed by any similar establishment in this entire country. The whole is under the able management and direction of Mr. Charles MacA. Willeox, through whose keen and alert judgment and indomitable energy during many years, it has reached its present unrivaled prosperity. Mr. Willcox is distinguished for his polished urbanity, tact and uniform courtesy to all his patrons. This store employs over 700 persons, and among them a large number of colored people. It led the way in this employment of our people, and others have since followed this good example which we highly appreciate.
NO. 7.
Joe Gans, the real lightweight champion, Monday refused to consider an offer from the Colma club, of San Francisco for another fight with Battling Nelson, James Crawford, manager of the Colma club, wrote to Gans and offered to give him a date with the Battler, but Gans turned it down. "I have more than $35,000 of my own now and do not care to go through any more training for a hard fight. I am planning now to attend to hotel, which will openthis week."
Rev. David S. Kennedy, moderator of the Synod of Pennsylvania of the Presbyterian church, addressing Friday's session, censured the church for its failure to give the proper support to the institutions it maintains for the education of the colored youth of the State. He said: There are fifteen such institutions with 3000 pupils, and they do not receive as much money as is given to the one institution at Tuskegee, and much of that is contributed by Presbyterians. This race question is being considered not alone by the churches, but by all thinking men and women. How can the Presbyterian church dare to neglect this problem? It must be faced. You can't paint the conditions too black for the moral conditions of the Negroes are only one true solution of it. It comes to us from Christ. It is, "Love thy neighbor as thyself."
MRS. TERRELL SPEAKS.
Battle Creek, Mich., Nov. 1. Mrs. Mary Church Terrell, president of the National Association of Colored Women, delivered a furious inventive against the people of the South before the Purity congress here tonight.
"No servant girl is safe in the homes of the white people," she declared, "and no mother who considers her daughter's honor would allow her to become a servant without first requiring references." She declared that all of the states of the South had plotted to shut out the children of the blacks from an education, and that the courts had refused to protect colored women. Mrs. Terrell was especially bitter in her condemnation of the women of the South, some of whom she quoted as saying the Negro women were devoid of honor.
"Many of our rich men will gladly give thousands to help my race." she said, "but refuse to give an honest, honorable, educated Negro respectable employment."
John H. Roberts, delegate of the Alliance of Homer of London, Eng., urged that young men and women about to marry pass not only a mental and intellectual examination, but a physical examination before a license is issued to them. He urged the suppression of immoral literature and liquor. Though once an actor himself, Mr. Roberts declared that purity workers must antagonize the theater.

Praises
Peruna
as a
Catarrh
Remedy
"Six bottles of Peruna, which I took, entirely cured me, the catarrh disappearing and never returning.
"I therefore cheerfully recommend Peruna to all similarly afflicted."
Mrs. Ellen Nagle, 4144th street, Green Bay, Wis., writes:
"I have often heard Peruna praised and it is more widely known here than any other medicine, but I never knew what a splendid medicine it really was until a few weeks ago when I caught a bad cold which settled all over me.
"The doctor wanted to prescribe, but I told him I was going to try Peruna and sent for a bottle and tried it.
"I felt much better the next morning and within five days I had not a trace of any lameness or any cough.
"I consider it the finest cough remedy."
PERUNA TABLETS:—Some people prefer to take tablets, rather than to take medicine in a fluid form. Such people can obtain Peruna tablets, which represent the solid medicinal ingredients of Peruna.

POSTAL SAVINGS BANKS FAVORED
BY POSTMASTER GENERAL, WHO ALSO PREDICTS ESTABLISHMENT OF PARCELS POST.
WOULD ACT TO PREVENT PRIVATE HOARDING OF MONEY AND KEEP IT MOVING.
Chicago. — Postmaster General George Von L. Meyer was the guest of honor Thursday at the banquet of the Industrial club of Chicago and gave his views regarding postal improvements, including the establishment of postal savings banks and the extension, of the parcels post system, which he will recommend to Congress in his annual report.
He said the Postoffice Department during the past fiscal year sent to Europe the money of immigrants to the extent of $71,000,000. He estimated the amount of money in the United States at $3,123,056,673, of which $1,010,740,000 is in the banks, $333,855,053 is in the treasury and the balance, $1,778,501,620 in the hands of individuals and other sources.
"For a striking illustration of the value of a postal savings bank, take the present time," sald Mr. Meyer. "Many small accounts have been withdrawn from national banks, trust companies and savings banks by timed depositors, and the money has gone into the strong box or into hiding On occasions like these what the people want is absolute security. After they withdraw their money they dread loss from theft or by fire, but they do not lose confidence in the security of the government or its pledges. Therefore the small accounts referred to would flow into the postal savings banks and would be led back into the channels of trade by being deposited in the national banks in those communities, to the great advantage of labor and industry.
"When a crisis had passed and confidence had been restored the money would be returned to the savings banks, because in the postal savings banks it would receive only about half the interest paid by savings banks. If the money is withheld from national banks or trust companies it loses the benefit of being drawn by check nor if deposited in a postal savings bank can the depositor receive accommodation in the way of a loan or the acceptance of business paper. In other words, the Postoffice Department is not going into the banking business. It desires only to encourage thrift and to offer an accessible and safe form of depositing savings by naturalized citizens and foreigners, as well as by our people living in out-of-the-way places."
Mr. Meyer in conclusion said he believed the need for both parcels post and postal savings banks would be recognized by Congress this year.
Business Conditions Better.
New York.—R. G. Dun & Co. report that trade conditions throughout the United States during the past week have shown a marked improvement over the preceding seven days' period. The issuance of clearing house certificates and checks in communities where the circulation of currency has been restricted has had no apparent effect on the volume of trade. Especially is this true in the retail lines, where the demand generally has been steady and of increasing volume as the season advances. The tone of the incoming weekly reports is one of healthy industrial and financial conditions in every section heard from up to tonight. In some instances there is a tendency to act upon a conservative basis in placing heavy orders for future delivery, and this course is being counseled by the jobbers themselves, who already having the situation well in hand are anxious that it shall move forward on the soundest possible footing.
One of the most gratifying features of the week's reports from the principal trade centers is that the jobbers are carrying fewer past due accounts on their books than for many years. In the iron markets there is tendency to supply immediate needs only, but the price of the metal holds good. Business failures for the week have shown no appreciable increase over those of four weeks past, the percentage of failures reaching the $500,000 mark and over remaining small. The reports coming from the interior of the country were received with satisfaction in New York and were considered by business interests as indicating the ability of the rest of the country to weather the storm as successfully as did New York.
Santa Fe Fined for Rebating.
Los Angeles, Cal.-Judge Olin Wellborn, in the United States District Court Thursday fined the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe Railroad Company $330,000 for "rebating." The fine was what the court denominated "an intermediate penalty," the maximum which might have been assessed being $1.20,000 and the minimum $66,000.
The court reviewed the case in a written opinion of some length in which it is stated that there were sufficient doubtful and extinguishing circumstances to preclude the possibility of a maximum sentence, and yet sufficient intention of wrong-doing shown to make impossible a minimum penalty.
The Santa Fe company was convicted October 11th last, by a jury in the Federal Court, of granting rebates to the Grand Canon Lime and Cement Company of Arizona. It was found guilty on all of the sixty-six counts charged in the indictment after but an hour's deliberation.

TAFT'S ADVICE TO THE FILIPINOS
TELLS THEM ABOUT THE FORMA TION AND MANAGEMENT OF POLITICAL PARTIES.
SUCHDIVISIONNATURAL
BELIEVES THAT BOTH PARTIES IN THE PHILIPPINES DESIRE GOOD GOVERNMENT.
Manila.—Secretary Taft, in an address at a banquet given by the Progress party Tuesday night, spoke of the history of party divisions and declared that their existence was a necessary part of the changes in the Philippines.
"The only method of conducting popular government," he said, "is by political parties. The federal party at the time of its organization was in no sense political. When it existed it was the only party organized to convince the people that it was best to accept the promise of the Americans. It worked bravely and faithfully to this end and to such an extent that much of the success of the early government of the islands was in no small measure due to the federalists. They sought peace and taught the people to seek peace.
"After the firm establishment of the government had been accomplished a change was natural. In elections for members of the Assembly it was natural for the people to divide.
"Knowing and believing that both the Nationalist and Progress parties have the interests of the government at heart, the question of which shall control is settled only by election sometimes casting party information one way and sometimes another.
"The first principle of party politics necessary to learn is that defeat must not cause discouragement. The first lesson in self-government that voters have to learn is to be good losers, and when that is learned to be good winners, because self-government imposes restraint on both sides. The minority must not strive to strike down the work of their opponents because they are not in control, and the majority must so conduct affairs as to show that the people have part in the government.
"Nothing has given greater pleasure or more confidence in the success of what we are doing than the action of the Assembly. All matters up to date have been treated in a conservative manner by both the minority and the majority. All I ask is that the minority, while pointing out the faults of the majority, may always conduct itself with praise, so as to show that the Assembly is a success."
The secretary referred to mistakes of the Cuban government, due to lack of interest in public affairs on the part of the legislators of that island, and declared that the Philippine Assembly showed a difference in this respect.
Secretary Taft told the Associated Press tonight that he expected to return home over the Siberian railway. He thought at first the troubles at Vladivostok would keep his party away from there. He has received no replies to dispatches of inquiry he has sent, but he regards it as extremely probable that he will stick to his original plans.
A meeting in Manila of Nationalists and Radicals, no members of the Assembly being present, adopted a motion censuring the majority of that body for inaction in regard to propositions in favor of independence.
Returns from election held yesterday are coming in slowly and are not definite from any province. There are indications, however, that the Progress party has scored a victory. All reports are to the effect that the election, which was the first held for the choice of provincial governors by direct vote of the people, was quiet throughout the archipelago.
Good Government Wins
San Francisco.—At 8:30 Wednesday night the count of Tuesday's municipal vote had been completed in 241 precincts out of 273 in the city. The total vote thus far counted is 49,309 giving the following on mayor:
E. R. Taylor, Democrat and Good Government League, 24,522; P. H. McCarthy, Union Labor, 15,298; D. A. Ryan, Republican, 7,925. Taylor's plurality, 9,224; majority, 1,299.
District attorney: W. H. Langdon, Republican, Democrat and Good Government, 28,412; Frank McGowan, Union Labor, 17,188. Langdon's plurality, 11,224.
The total vote, it is estimated, will reach 56,000 or 57,000. If the present ratio is maintained, it is predicted that Taylor will have a majority of 2,200 and Langdon a majority of 14,000.
It is apparent that the entire Good Government League ticket is elected, with the exception of county clerk and treasurer and possibly one of the eighteen supervisors.
Jury for Adams Trial.
Rathdrum, Ida.—The jury to try Steve Adams for the alleged murder of Fred Tyler in the Marble Creek country of Shoshone county, Idaho, three years ago, was completed Tuesday afternoon. Clarence Darrow, leading counsel for the defense, entered objection to the state's having ten peremptory challenges, saying the law giving the state this privilege was after Adams was tried once, and was ex post facto. The objection was overruled.
Walter H. Hanson, prosecuting attorney, made the opening statement to the jury.
Success of Aeroplane.
Paris.—M. Farman, the aeronaut, increased the record for aeroplane flying Tuesday by covering 1,040 yards. His previous record was 834 yards.
ITINERARY OF BATTLESHIPS.
Fleet Will Leave Hampton Roads for
San Francisco Dengcheng 19th
San Francisco December 16th.
Washington.—The fleet itinerary of Admiral Evans' battleship fleet on its voyage to San Francisco was made public at the navy department Tuesday. As heretofore announced, the fleet will assemble at Hampton Roads on December 9th and depart from there December 16th, touching on the way to San Francisco at Trinidad, Rio de Janiero, Punta Arenas, Callao and Magdalena Bay.
It is scheduled to arrive at Trinidad December 24th, Rio de Janiero January 11th, at Punta Arenas January 31st, at Callao February 18th, and at Magdalena Bay March 14th. At each of these places it will remain from five to eleven days, except at Magdalena Bay, from which place the date of departure depends upon the completion of target practice there. For the same reason the date of arrival at San Francisco has not been determined.
The torpedo boat destroyer flotilla will leave Hampton Roads December 2nd, and because of their greater speed, more limited draught and smaller tennage these boats will stop at many more places than the battleships.
The stay of the torpedo boat destroyers at each port will be about four or five days. The itinerary contemplates their arrival at the various places as follows:
San Juan, December 7th; Trinidad, December 15th; Para, December 26th; Pernambuco, January 5th; Rio de Janiero, January 15th; Montevideo, January 25th; Punta Arenas, February 8th; Talcahuana, February 20th; Callao, March 4th; Panama, March 16th; Apaculco, March 28th, and Magdalena Bay, April 6th.
As in the case of the battleship fleet the dates of departure from Magdalena Bay and arrival at San Francisco depend upon the completion of target practice in the bay. The flotilla will be commanded by Lieut. Commander Cone.
Industrial School Controversy.
Golden—In relation to the attack of the labor unions on the wiring done at the school Superintendent Paddleford of the State Industrial school, says that he would be glad to have a committee from the Electrical Workers' union examine the wiring at the school. For the last twenty-three years the boys have done all the electric wiring at the institution and during this time, he says, there has never been trouble due to defective work. He objects to the union calling the boys convicts and says that the fathers of three-fourths of them are union men.
In addition to the wiring the boys do all the work about the school, such as running the dynamos and pumps, blacksmithing, horseshoeing, machine work, make their own clothes, shoes and the wagons used at the institution. He believes that all labor unions would be as much justified in making complaint as the electricians. The appropriation allowed the school by the state does not justify hiring all this work done and the boys are taught these trades under competent instructors, thus giving them opportunity to make an honest living when they go out into the world.
May Trade for State Lands.
Denver—In the opinion of the attorney general the state may sell lands for other than cash remunerations. The State Land Board some time ago consulted Attorney General W. H. Dickson on this point and yesterday the opinion was handed down by Ralph Talbot.
The case in point was that of the La Jara Meadows Land & Reservoir Company, which wishes to secure 147 acres of the state land in southern Colorado. It is said that water rights would in many cases be more advantageous for the state in the sale of public lands than cash, and it is probable that many sales will now be made in exchange for water rights.
Tallmadge Acquitted.
Roswell, N. M.—When the jury returned a verdict of not guilty in the case of B. H. Tallmadge of Denver, charged with making fraudulent land entries, the defendant was literally showered with congratulations. Tallmadge was not surprised at the verdict, as he has stoutly maintained since his indictment two years ago that he was innocent, and at the last term of court pleaded for trial in order that the Tallmadge company could resume operations. Among the messages of congratulation received was one from Hon. A. M. Stevenson of Denver.
State Raises Royalty.
Denver.—Six cents on the ton will be charged the Victor Coal Company in the future instead of 5 as has been customary heretofore. The Victor company has coal mines in Huferwano county on state land and always made the claim to the land board that only fifty per cent. of the output was coal and the rest was slack. The rate is 10 cents on the ton and where but fifty per cent. of the ore is lump coal, but 5 cents to the ton was charged. But the land board has concluded that the company in question is securing sixty per cent. lump coal from the ore and hence the rate has been advanced to 6 cents.
Will Build Electric Line.
Pueblo, Colo.—An announcement was made Tuesday that actual construction work on the new Douthitt Electric railway from Pueblo through the Arkansas valley will be commenced at once and will be pushed to completion. M. C. Vannatta, chief engineer of the line, who has been in Pueblo several weeks, has received orders from Mr. Douthitt to proceed with his survey as fast as possible. Work must be commenced on or before December 15th, according to the franchise, but the promoters have no intention of waiting until that time. Pueblo business men are enthusiastic over the proposition.

HAM-STRUNG
Men will continue to follow the "manly sport" and white men will continue to claim that they are "it" in matters pugilistic, as in everything else. But here is a sport in which the term "world's champion" means something, for true sportsmen of this ilk are straight for the truth. And that is why the sons of Ham are given a chance to shine. So Mr. Jack Johnson met Mr. Jimmy Flynn out in California the other day, just as Mr. Joe Gans met Mr. Jimmy Britt, and it was a dark day for Mr. Flynn, even as the sun refused to shine for Mr. Britt. Top-notchers in the heavy-weight and light-weight classes, and comers in the middle and feather-weight puggeries, it looks as if many more of St. Patrick's sons will be Ham-strung before the spots on the sun of white pugilism are all removed.

THE most severe test of the Negro's self-reliance that he has ever been called upon to face will be up to him within the next twelve months. It is not a matter of industrial activity by which his daily wants may be provided for, as was the case when he was forced to step out of the heedless conditions of slavery and adjust himself to personal responsibilities strange and new, but it is a trial requiring a finer intelligence, a keener appreciation of vital influences having direct bearing upon his future welfare as a citizen and determining his capacity to employ and enjoy the privileges of a free man.
This test is to be political and is to be fought out in the course of the next national campaign for the choosing of the President of the United States. Swift-moving events of the past four years have combined to bring about a complete change in the character of the issues upon which candidates for office go before the people. For more than thirty years the colored voter has felt that the manner in which he cast his ballot had something to do with the opportunity he might enjoy to develop as a freeman and a citizen, and the solidarity of his political action has been an evidence of his faith and trust in the principles to which the Republican party has elung and which formed the basis and bulwark of the public life of the nation's greatest statesmen. But new ideas, vigorous and daring, have forged to the front in the last four years, and under the strenuous tutelage of men of great political power and dauntless personal will have driven into the background the sentiments as well as many of the live issues which heretofore appealed to the people, and with these sentiments and issues have gone interests so vital to the Negro that their continued abandonment will mean the elimination of the Negro as an important political factor in all parts of the Union. This object has been accomplished practically already in the South, but the work in the North requires stranger and more subtle tactics. The abandonment of all race controversies in politics is to be the policy in the North, while in the South they remain actively dominant. Closer touch among the white people of the nation upon industrial matters, and a compromise of sectional feeling at whatever cost, is the ambition of these new thinkers and wonder-workers of the North. Their success will mean, first, an absolute change in the political character of the Republican party and of its attitude toward the Negro, and, second, the quick rejuvenation and sudden return to prolonged national power of the Democratic party. The Negro's political strength would then become of no avail, because its aid would be unnecessary and undesirable.
Nothing but the solid opposition of the Negro voter to this transformation of the Republican party will thwart the success of these ambitious schemes, whose real source is to be found in the heart of the Bourbon South. The independent, self-saving judgment of the Negro must be aroused against the subtle plans by which this most cruel political prescription is expected to be attained. Thus far Secretary of War Taft is the leading exponent of this proposed sacrifice, as the representative and choice of the administration at Washington. If he, or any other man representing these principles, can succeed in the coming nominating convention and subsequent election, the Negro's political future will depend upon nothing that remains in his power to accomplish.

ONE should not read too hurriedly the article written by John Sharp Williams for the November issue of the Metropolitan Magazine. It is a discussion of the Negro question from the standpoint of a conservative Southerner. John Sharp Williams, congressman from Mississippi, for years has been the recognized leader of the Democritic minority in the House of Representatives, and his strength, logic and wit in debate have made him well known to the people at large. But he is a southern Democrat of the old school, with a goodly share of progressiveness and a crippled sense of fairness stowed away in his eranium, and these modern embellishments, along with his other accomplishments, enabled him to defeat the rabid old Governor Vardeman in the canvass for the United States senatorship last spring. Mr. Williams contends that the southerner has no "prejudice" against the Negro, but that their race feeling is based upon their "knowledge" of the Negro's traits and tendencies, and of his physical, mental and moral differences from the white man. These differences he holds to be "a menace to the moralities of social life, to the white man's civilization or his code of ethics." "It is the physical presence of the Negro that constitutes the problem," he says. And yet, unlike many other southerners, he does not advocate any radical plan for the separation of the races. He does not like the Fifteenth Amendment, but he does not expect that to be repealed. He is content to leave the states to devise schemes to avoid the force of that amendment.
And while he restrains the Negro politically, he believes that the solution of the problem of his presence rests upon the natural law of evolution. He wants the Negroes to be gradually scattered over all the country, while their places as laborers in the South are taken by white immigrants; he expects this to bring about an industrial competition which will not prove favorable to the Negro, and at the same time give to all white people a more thorough knowledge of the Negro, and consequently a better understanding of the feeling of white men in the South. Then he expects the Negro to begin to decrease in numbers—in fact, already, the birth rate of the Negro everywhere is decreasing very materially. Then he will have the gaunt demon of disease further hasten the decrease. Already, according to Mr. Williams, "the general death-rate among their children in the cities is about double that of the white race. Whisky, cocaine and venereal disease are doing their deadly work." Thus the Negro is enabled to see his finish. And this is only the industrial phase of the evolutionary process. The criminal side of the matter is to be dealt with severely, for the supremacy of law must be maintained. "Racial peace, without any interference from the outside, and the natural evolution of things" is the final solution of this great problem. For God rules this world, and not the devil, says Mr. Williams. And thus we are brought to observe again the wonderful ego of the white man. "Mit me und Gott" was wrongfully attributed to the German conceit; the American citizen, especially the southern white man, accepts no implication of equality with anything less than the Almighty. He must continue master of the world.
Interscholastic Sports Are Beneficial Under Regulation

Headmaster English High School, Boston

The question of professionalism does not delivery much. We find some tendencies to graft, even in this there is an improvement. On the present rules for the control of athletics have worked well, and when wisely enforced the results are satisfactory to all parties.

Athletics left to themselves lines which did not promote scholarship and fair play, high sense of honesty.

On the whole it is for the control of athletics.
HE effect of the growth of athletic sports in secondary schools has been beneficial in that it has compelled school authorities to enact and enforce legislation for the proper direction of these sports. Athletics left to themselves were developing along lines which did not promote scholarship, a spirit of sportsmanship and fair play, high sense of honor, or even common honesty.
Boys have a strong sense of justice which answers to proper appeals, and when properly handled by those whom they respect they are easily led. They have, therefore, accepted the changed conditions without objection and even accepted severe restrictions imposed at first without authority. School boards also, in placing athletics under school management, have recognized the fact that they thereby assumed duties toward athletics. These duties they have performed by supplying medical inspection in physical training.
City schools need properly equipped play grounds. Nearly all athletic sports take place out of doors, and while, in consequence of their youth and fine physical condition, most young athletes are able to endure present conditions, some suffer from the lack of opportunities properly to care for themselves after vigorous exercise.
In considering the effect which athletics as now developed have, we must remember that to the student body as a whole, athletics form an important and desirable school feature, and we must also consider what would be the effect if athletics were discountenanced or forbidden.
Athletic teams should be given credit for their willingness to conform to regulations and to assist the school authorities in their efforts to keep sports clean. Improper conduct on the part of players is rare at present. The behavior of spectators at the games and on the street is not always just what it should be, but this is a matter for police rather than for school control.
The eligibility rules, when properly enforced, require fair scholarship and good character at all times, with the result that pupils who used to come to school for athletics only now stay away; members of teams who neglect their lessons in their zeal for sport become ineligible; in games like football and basket ball, where it is difficult to distinguish between accidental and intentional injury, self-control must be practiced. Moreover, the teachers who have charge of the games have, in their intimate association with the boys on the field, far greater opportunities for the exercise of personal influence than in the classrooms. And if these are men of high principles, in sympathy with the boys and liked by them—and no others ought to be intrusted with this work—they can develop in the athletes the very principles of courage, endurance, self-reliance and self-control which go toward making the best manhood.
The question of professionalism does not disturb the secondary schools very much. We find some tendencies to graft, and occasional thefts, but even in this there is an improvement. On the whole it seems to me that the present rules for the control of ath-

Many men who are really marriage-made think they are self-made. Napoleon won his greatest victories while Josephine was his wife and while he loved her. When our country's interests hung in the balance at Valley Forge, Martha Washington hastened to her husband and urged him on to victory.
Whether a man shall be made or marred in marriage depends altogether on his choice of a wife.
The word wife means weaver, and wives either weave men's fortunes, or, like moths, simply feed upon them. Many a woman by true sympathy, by thinking over what will do him good, has helped her husband on to highest success. Bismarck and Disraeli, who for thirty years were the controlling powers in European politics, said they owed their success to their wives.
Woman's quick intuition will give you more practical knowledge in an hour than man's slow logic in years. Before you select a business partner introduce him to your wife; get her opinion as to his capacity and integrity.
While many a man owes his prosperity to his wife's wise administration of household affairs it is also true that many a man's financial straits can be traced to his wife's love of vulgar display, social rivalry of thoughtless extravagance, or, perhaps, incompetent management.
That is what is going on in thousands of homes throughout our land. Women have their hearts set upon show, upon glitter, upon dress, upon social distinction, upon surpassing some rival, upon more of the luxuries and splendors of wealth, and are leading their husbands, unconciously, perhaps, to abandon their integrity for the sake of show.
He cannot be an unhappy man who has the lo woman to accompany him in every department of life. The world without may look dark and cheerless, but the little haven home, lighted up by love, will be cheerful and bright. The successful man's wife will make her husband feel that one day passed under his own roof is worth a thousand in any other place. A house may be a cold storage for costly furniture. A home must be warmed with the embers of love. Home is the minature of heaven, let down to shine in this world.

PETER H. BURGESS
EDITOR COLORADO STATESMAN:
Dear Sir: Kindly give me a little space in your valuable paper for a few remarks on the trip from your city to the Jamestown Exposition:
Mr. Wm. Britton and I left Denver on the 4th of October and arrived in Chicago on the 6th, where we were well treated by everyon. The street car employees and officers were courteous and obliging I started out to find my old school mate, Henry Lee. We found him about 9 o'clock and managed to entertain one another until time for all honest people to retire. Our next stop was Pittsburg. We found things still in the bounds of reason, but we could tell that we were getting into a southern atmosphere Our next stop was Philadelphia, there we struck a new life. I met Brother Clayton and his lovely family that entertained me to the last minute. Mr. Britton branched out into the country a little ways and found dear old Grandma Britton anxiously awaiting the prodical son. We were forced to stay a week with relatives and friends. Mr. Britton was entertained kindly by his aunt, Sadie Hopkins, and cousin, Mrs. Butler. Our last moments at the depot seem to be the sweetest, but yet sad. There was a real reunion of the Curtis and Britton families bidding us God's speed. Our next stop was Delmar, long to be remembered, for Delmar is a station on the line of Delaware and Maryland; there we came in contact with Jimmy; you all know who we mean by Jimmie. Well he is mostly called Jim Crow,—where the conductor comes in the car and says to all colored passengers, "Say? take the forth car." He repeats this to every colored passenger and does not use language of a cultured gentlemen. It would seem more like a bull whacker or a mule driver. We next came to Norfolk, Va., and here is the place where Jimmy rules for sure and we don't care to write-up the conditions, but we will say our people are doing extra well under the conditions.
On October 20th we left Norfolk by steamboat; we also leave Jimmy in Norfolk, for we had all the accommodations that any other passengers had while on the steamer. Next we came to Washington, D. C., where we met many friends and relatives. We then taken a flying trip to Baltimore where we had the extreme pleasure of meeting Mrs. Annie Rivers-Key and Mrs. Alice Rivers-Chambers, both school mates of mine and sisters of Editor Rivers. They gave us a royal time and when I found that they were living in their own lovely homes I was forced to make a fuss over them. At 5 o'clock we said good bye and arrived in Washington about 6 o'clock. I see then that my time is getting away from me and there is one more Rivers to find. About 12 o'clock the next day I had the pleasure of locating Mrs. Eliza Rivers-Butler and her lovely family which consisted of 4 children and they are as happy and prosperous as can be. I can cheerfully say that with the success I had in locating the Curtis, Rivers and Britton families our trip was a continued round of pleasure from start to finish.

LIZARDS THAT LIKE MUSIC.
Tuataraes of New Zealand Very Fone
of Rollicking Choruses.
A curious fact has lately been learned about the tuatara, the large native lizard of New Zealand.
It is a great fat, sleepy thing, from a foot upward in length, with a measurement around it of about twelve inches. It is kept tamed, about rocks. Wild specimens are growing rare, though one island off the coast still swarms with them.
These harmless things come out as a rule only for food. But some one in Christ church has discovered a way of bringing them out at any time. This is by singing them.
They have preferences in music, too. They evince much more satisfaction at a rollicking chorus than at a solo. One day a song sung by a girl brought some out, but only their heads were visible, their sleepy eyes opening every few minutes. Then the charmer tried "Soldiers of the Queen" and when all joined in the chorus there was no doubt about the effect on the tuataras. They wriggled about on the rocks, almost dancing in their excitement and joy, until the repertoire of the singers was exhausted, when the lizards sneaked back again to their home among the rocks.
New Zealand is the only place in the world where these great lizards are found, and they are said by biologists to be out of their place in this stage of the world's history. They belong to the coal period, and like the moa, ought, by natural laws, to have become extinct long ago.—New York dun.
Com on Sense in Diet
As man was cleaned for a variegated and mixed diet, he has abundant opportunities for selecting his food and supplying his individual needs. In most cases appetite is the surest guide to healthy digestion and proper nourishment. This certainly is the common sense view that must appeal to all rational feeders: "Eat with regularity and in accordance with the demands of hunger such dishes as have always been regarded as innocuous and remember that, as a rule, it is neither meats nor boulbon nor wine nor spices nor coffee which poison us but their abuse."

of the men, including George Siler

who have been associated with the
ringsince some relation began to
make itself felt in bouts. This
list is comprised of James J. Jeff-
ries, Peter Jackson, Jim Corbett,
Bob Fitzsimmons, Jack Demsey,
Joo Gans, Joe Walcott, George
Dixon, Young Ketchell and George
Lavigne. It will be a shock to
some of the comparatively younger

Coy, ‘Terry McGovorn and Young
Corbett were not given a place in
the roll. The men named were
not only slugyers, but had more
than a passing knowledge of the
artof defending themselves, A
point that some of the latter day
fighters would do well to observe is
that the informal committee of se-

Keen Scent of Dogs.
Sometimes what seems marvels of
Wastinct may be only proof of remark-
ably keen senses. A dog carried fat
from home in a closed wagon or in a
box may go back, quickly und unerr
ingly, by following the odor of tio
wheels of the vehicle in which he
was taken through unfamiliar roads.
Not all dogs can do such things, but
some have powers of scent which are
almost beyond belief.

ELECTIONS PLEASE ROOSEVELT.
Sends Letter of Congratulation to
Heney at San Francisco.
Washington.—President Roosevelt
Thursday issued the following statement regarding the elections held Tuesday last:
"The President regards the result of the elections as extremely gratifying. He has sent a letter of hearty congratulation to Mr. Heney at San Francisco.
"The victory in New Jersey was precisely what happened nine years ago, in the middle of President McKinley's administration. He had carried New Jersey by 88,000 and two years afterward the Republican candidate for governor had 5,500, the vote being cut down just as happened in the Judge Fort case.
"As compared with the elections next preceding the last presidential election, we have done decidedly better than we did in 1903. Then as Tuesday, Rhode Island and Maryland went against us, but this year we have won a sweeping victory in Kentucky for the first time since McKinley's first election; and the victory in Massachusetts was also remarkable.
"The showing in Pennsylvania and Nebraska is equally good. The showing in New York state as a whole was excellent, far better than was the case prior to the last presidential election. That the result in Manhattan was due to purely local causes is shown by comparing it with the decisive triumphs of Brooklyn, Buffalo, Albany and in the state generally. The President's home county of Nassau made a better showing than it ever has in an off-year. As a whole the showing has been an improvement over what it was four and eight years ago."
Record of Railway Accidents.
Washington.—The Interstate Commerce Commission bulletin on accidents on railroads of the United States during the year ended last June shows total casualties of 81,236, or 5,000 persons killed and 76,286 injured. This shows an increase of 10,392 casualties, or 775 in the killed and 9,777 in the injured as compared with the previous year.
The bulletin says:
"There have been heavy increases in all of the items, except accidents in car coupling and from striking against over head obstructions. The number of passengers killed and injured in collisions and derailments has increased to an alarming degree. In this item the very large total reported in 1905 is now exceeded by seventeen per cent. The comparative smallness of the increase in casualties due to coupling and uncoupling cars and in accidents to men on the tops of freight cars is undoubtedly due in large measures to improvements in the maintenance and care of automatic couplers and to the increased use of airbrakes on freight trains. The disastrous record of casualties to passengers in train accidents (410 killed), is due in large measure to ten accidents which caused the death of 298 persons."
The report for the last quarter (included in these figures for the year) embracing April, May and June shows 1,065 persons killed, and 18,646 injured; 1,806 collisions and 1,971 dearrivals, involving $3,232,673 damage to trains and roadways.
Condemns Postal Department.
Buffalo, N. Y.—The twenty-seventh annual convention of the National Civil Service Reform league began here Thursday. The night session of the council was addressed by Gov. Charles E. Hughes and Charles J. Bonaparte, attorney general of the United States.
The annual report of the council was read by Chairman Richard Henry Dana of Boston. The report mentioned politicians by name and condemned their alleged shortcomings.
The report highly commends the precedent established by President Roosevelt in the appointment of a postmaster for New York city. "Instead of making it a political plum, the assistant postmaster was promoted to the head of the great New York postoffice. Why not always promote some one trained in the department?"
It declares the present methods are responsible for "the worst postal department of any highly civilized country in the world."
Japan Is Still Friendly.
Tokio.-The official silence so long consistently maintained by Japan on the subject of the relations of the United States and Japan in connection with the persistent reports of friction, has been broken by an Associated Press interview with Minister of Foreign Affairs Hayashi.
He prefaced his statement by expressing the hope that a sincere pronouncement by the foreign minister of Japan and its publication through the Associated Press would prevent further misrepresentation and finally result in discrediting those who are constantly circulating false and harmful reports. He spoke not only as foreign minister, but as representing the sentiment of the entire cabinet and the public.
Minister Hayashi then said that the relations between Japan and America were as smooth and cordial as ever, and the cause of civilization as well as community of interest demanded their lasting peace and friendship.
Germany Favors Airships.
Berlin.—According to press reports a bill will be laid before the Reichstag upon its assembling, appropriating money for Count Ferdinand von Zeppelin to build a new airship. It is also said that imperial authorities are considering the question of repaying Count Von Zeppelin all the money which he has spent in experimenting with airships.
Souvenir Cards For Orphans.
Washington,—Postmaster General Meyer has ordered that hereafter souvenir postal cards received at the dead letter office for the department and not returnable to senders because of defective address or other causes, be sent to the orphan asylums and children's homes in this city. Between 40,000 and 60,000 of these cards are received at the dead letter office daily.

A Dog Worth Knowing.
Two years ago a boy 14 years old named Edward Sweeney, living at Opelika, Ala., was followed home by a small dog. The animal was bobtailled and squint-eyed and by no means good looking, and the boy was laughed at for having him around. Within a week, however, the dog brought home a five-dollar bill in his mouth. The next week he brought a silver dollar. Then he brought a pocket knife, and followed that with a dollar bill. There has hardly been a week in these two years that the dog has not found something. He makes it his business to hunt the streets and highways, and often travels a distance of 30 miles. Up to the present date he has found and brought home $38 in cash, besides many useful things.

The company will loan as freely on this stock as on the finest gilt-edge stock. This company was organized as a mining stock brokerage and trust company, to buy and sell mining property and real estate and to secure and let leases in the best proven mining districts in the West.
Facts the Investor Should Know
Why GOLDFIELD MINES INVESTMENT STOCK is better than a bank deposit and practically as convenient.
First: The stock will pay in assured dividends many times what your stock will pay you in made investment.
Second: Your stock is made safer by the protection reserve fund. Impossible to lose.
Third: No doubt this is the first time that an incorporation of this kind as safe and as profitable has been offered to the public, the men of the company have finance and control these companies because they know the vast profits to be derived, consequently the small investor has no chance.

Pulque Shops of Mexico.
The government of the federal district is considering the most practical and lawful way to remove the pulque shops from the central part of the City of Mexico. The government has not given licenses to establish any new pulque shops in the central section of the city, and as soon as any of the julquerias are closed on account of the end of the contract for rent or any other cause, the government cancels the license. But there are some of those shops, the owners of which have contracts for rent covering ten, fifteen and twenty years, and some of them are owners of the buildings occupied. The government in this case cannot count on the ending of the contract to close the shops, and is considering another way to remove them from that part of the city and still respect the rights of the proprietors.—Mexican Herald.

PRESCRIPTION WHICH ANYONE
CAN EASILY MIX.
Mix the following by shaking well in a bottle, and take in teaspoonful doses after meals and at bedtime:
Fluid Extract Dandelion, one half ounce; Compound Kargon, one ounce; Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla, three ounces. A prominent physician is the authority that these simple, harmless ingredients can be obtained at nominal cost from any druggist even in the smaller towns.
The mixture is said to cleanse and strengthen the clogged and inactive Kidneys, overcoming Backache, Bladder weakness and Urinary trouble of all kinds, if taken before the stage of Bright's disease.
Those who have tried this say it positively overcomes pain in the back, clears the urine of sediment and regulates urination, especially at night, curing even the worst forms of bladder weakness.
Every man or woman here who feels that the kidneys are not strong or acting in a healthy manner should mix this prescription at home and give it a trial, as it is said to do wonders for many persons. The Scranton (Pa.) Times was first to print this remarkable prescription, in October, of 1906, since when all the leading newspapers of New York, Boston, Philadelphia, Pittsburg and other cities have made many announcements of it to their readers.
Husband's Ghost Stops Wedding.
Declaring that her dead husband had come to her in spirit and warned her against marrying again, Mrs. Mary Lincoln of Wilmerding, widow of Charles Lincoln, refused to proceed with her intended marriage to Joseph Parker, also of Wilmerding, and the guests were dismissed, says Pittsburg dispatch to the New York Times.
A little over a year ago her husband died. After a brief period of mourning she agreed to marry Mr. Parker. He furnished a house and invitations were issued.
The other afternoon Mr. Parker found her in tears. Her mother said that some time during the previous night her daughter had come sobbing into her room and declared that she had just been visited by the spirit of her dead husband. He had warned her against marrying again, she said, and when she protested the spirit had taken hold of her arms and held her until she promised that she would give up the marriage. She asserted that her arms ached from the encounter.
Grieg as a Schoolboy.
Grieg was not a pattern schoolboy. In a description of his days at school he wrote: "Knowing that by arriving late I would not be allowed to enter the class until the end of the first lesson, I used, on wet mornings, to stand under a dripping roof, until I was soaked to the skin. The master then sent me home to change my clothes, but the distance being long this was equivalent to giving me a dispensation! You may guess that I played this prank pretty often, but when at last I carried it so far as to come one day wet through, though it had hardly rained at all, they became suspicious, and kept a lookout. One fine day I was caught, and made an intimate acquaintance with the birch!"
Will Not Supply Pigs.
Bacon curers are usually among the most prosperous firms in Belfast, but they have had to warn the farmers throughout the north not to kill any more pigs until the strikes are settled, for it is impossible to handle the carcasses. Business has thus been diverted to other Irish bacon-curing centers, although the majority of farmers have simply respired their pigs and are making no attempt to supply the market. Danish bacon factories will thus profit.—London Standard.

Exact figures show the number of unclaimed return tourist tickets for the past season, closing October 31st, are not as great as was first estimated. All together there were 1,490 return tickets unclaimed in Denver, 402 in Colorado Springs and 400 in Pueblo, making a total of 2,292. This shows the number of tourists buying tickets to Colorado points, who remained in the state in preference to returning East. The figures given do not at all adequately cover the real number of people who remain here, as the majority of return tickets find their way into the hands of brokers, in spite of the precautions taken.

The Bright Firstborn
They were discussing the law of entail—the English law bequeathing the bulk of the family property to the eldest son.
"There is 50 per cent. of logic in that law," said a physician, "and if the family property went to the firstborn, whether son or daughter, the law would contain 100 per cent. of logic. For the first born child is practically always the best—best in brain, in build, in beauty, in everything.
"Why is this so? It is because married people love one another more profoundly at the beginning than afterward; for love, like all things, grows old, grows weak, often dies.
"Mrs. Craigie—John Oliver Hobbes—was a first born child. So was Marie Corell. So was Richard Mansfield. So were Joseph Chamberlain, Lord Kitchener, Max Muller, Henry Irving, George Meredith.
"Look back into the past, and we see again the prominence of the firstborn, among them Mohammed, Confucius, Raphael, Milton, Dante, Goethe, Byron, Shelly and Heine."

While Oil City cannot, perhaps, boast of being a strictly cold-water town, she can, we believe, lay claim to having among her residents the champion temperance man of the state, if not of the entire country. Not only has he never drank any kind of spiritous or malt liquors, but he has never allowed any tea, coffee, soup or any kind of milk to pass his lips since he was a child. He is a colored man, was born in slavery, and because his father frequently drank more whisky than was good for him, he resolved when a boy to never drink anything but water. And he has religiously kept the resolution. He is a member of the Oil City police force, and his name is Major Franklin.—Oil City (Pa.) Blizzard.

"Yes." replied the parent.

HER "BEST FRIEND."
A Woman Thus Speaks of Postum.
We usually consider our best friends those who treat us best.
Some persons think coffee a real friend, but watch it carefully awhile and observe that it is one of the meanest of all enemies for it stabs one while professing friendship.
Coffee contains a poisonous drug—caffeine—which injures the delicate nervous system and frequently sets up disease in one or more organs of the body, if its use is persisted in.
"I had heart palpitation and nervousness for four years and the doctor told me the trouble was caused by coffee. He advised me to leave it off, but I thought I could not," writes a Wis. lady.
"On the advice of a friend I tried Postum Food Coffee and it so satisfied me that I did not care for coffee after a few days' trial of Postum.
"As weeks went by and I continued to use Postum my weight increased from 98 to 118 pounds, and the heart trouble left me. I have used it a year now, and am stronger than I ever was. I can hustle up stairs without any heart palpitation, and I am cured of nervousness.
"My children are very fond of Postum and it agrees with them. My sister liked it when she drank it at my house, but not when she made it at her own home. Now she has learned to make it right, boil it according to directions, and has become very fond of it. You may use my name if you wish, as I am not as ashamed of praising my best friend—Postum."

"In fact, all your remedies are doing noble work, but your Liniment beats all. In my eight years' experience with medicine I find none to go ahead of it, having tried it in very many cases. I know of one young man, a brick-mason, who suffered from a partial, yes, almost complete, paralysis of one arm. I got him to use your Liniment, and now he can do as much work as ever, and he sings your praise every day. I get all to use it I possibly can and know there is great virtue in it. I have helped the sale of your noble remedies about here greatly, and expect to cause many more to buy them, as I know they can't be beat."

Picturesque People That Are Found in the Philippines.
Among the wild tribes to be found in the Philippines are the Bogobos, the most picturesque people in the tropics. Their origin is unknown, and all sorts of opinions have been expressed concerning them. One tale told of them is that their first ancestors were all poets and musicians, and that the dislike for the practical which is always noticeable among them has come down through the generations.
Those that have taught among the Bogobos say that given a song or a poem to learn and they will study and dream over it for hours, but give the Bogobo a problem in arithmetic and he immediately becomes ill and wants to go home.

We used Cuticura Remedies for our baby, who was nearly bald when young. She has very nice hair now.

Our Fashion Letter
A VISITING GOWN
GRACEFUL EMPIRE GOWN
A PRETTY NEW DESIGN
Fashion absolutely defies economy even in matters sartorial, and just as we have grown used to short sleeves and have had our coats cut off to the elbow, the fickle jade declares that we shall revert once more to long sleeves. Many a dinner-dress, for instance, with a low decolletage shows the sleeve worn over the wrist. Taking it all round, especially in tailor-mades, I consider the long sleeve is a boon to the generality of womankind. To begin with, it is practical, and nothing was more incongruous for ordinary everyday use than a sleeve which left exposed half a bare arm! When a blue serge frock was finished just above the elbow and the glove was not long enough, it did not seem to me to savor of good style, to say the least of it, for traveling, or indeed for any occasion on which we wear the tailor-made.
Among the definite fashions for the fail and winter season are longer sleeves and shorter skirts, with coats tending towards greater length. In graceful garments, and especially in furs, the kimono sleeve is giving place
One of the Latest Coat and Skirt Costumes.
to what is known as the "bat" sleeve, consisting of a wing-like drapery which in reality is not a sleeve at all but forms a cope effect. At the same time, the kimono has by no means died out, but is produced in other forms and is relegated to the superior fabrics rather than to the cheaper ones. I must say I should like to hedge a little in the matter of sleeves. Although a great many Jong, tight, mitten sleeves will be worn there are some people they do not suit, and these will try to remain faithful to the puffs. But the puff cannot be said to be a future vogue. The Empire puff is seldom seen, but rather popular is a little plain, tight sleeve consisting of open-work lace and trellis-work of jet or embroidery. Further picturesqueness is attained by wing-like draperies at the top of the arm weight-
ed by a fringe—for, by the way, fringes of every kind are a feature which many dressmakers will try to revive. There is some sense in the fringe, and tunic, polonaise, and princess effects are infinitely improved when weighted with heavy silk or chenille fringes.
Though there is no very startling change to chronicle in the general fashioning of furs this season, there are any number of distinctive details which will proclaim the wearer of the really up-to-date coat or wrap. The kimono continues to exercise on furs the all-powerful influence which it first displayed on clothes and satins, and it certainly makes for grace of outline, as well as comfort, and as a carriage or theater wrap finds practically no rival. Its wide sleeves also figure on the sacque coatees which are to be very much worn, though, once again, fashion has been most thoughtful of her followers' varying figures and requirements, and so includes in her list for the season a smartly simple and short basqued coat, which fits closely at the back and has straight, double breasted fronts and long sleeves.
And now a word about the dresses displayed in our illustrations. The tailor-made shown in our larger picture is made of reseda green cloth and is trimmed with braid in a darker shade, tiny brass buttons being used most effectively as a final trimming The blouse is of coarse white lace while the hat is of white crinoline with dark green and white striped ribbon.
The modified Empire style will still be very much in evidence in evening gowns, and I have seen some charmingly pretty bodices with just that rounded fullness of effect which is so much desired by the fair wearer. One new model, in white Oriental satin, is gathered below a little chemisette of chiffon and has all its soft folds encircled by crossed bands of paleest green satin, set with clusters and trails of wee pink chiffon roses and green silken leaves, a border of the embroidered flowers being the only trimming for the plain, gracefully hanging skirt. The design shown is simple and yet beautiful. The waistband can be either in souple satin or silver and pink tissue, the ends crossed in front and fastening with tiny flower-like rosettes. This waistband can be lowered to the waist-line in front if one chooses and still keep the upward Empire line at the back.
The hat pictured for you this week is strikingly smart, and is of a fine quality of felt with a mushroom brim raised on a bandeau, and its attractiveness is enhanced by the fact that the crown is a very becoming large shape trimmed with full bows of silk glace.
The coat and skirt costume displayed in our single column illustration shows an effective style for those who cannot wear those very fashionable long coats because of lack of stature. Fashion is delightfully accommodating this season, and everyone's figure can be suited if a little discretion is used. The striped material will also tend to give you the effect of an extra inch or so, and as to colors, purple or green and black or dark blue and brown would be both smart and serviceable, the color of the stripe being repeated in the velvet of collar and cuffs.

EATS NUTS; HAS FINE HEALTH.
Squirrel's Fare and Water Year Around Sylvester's Only Diet.
Boston—George B. Sylvester, of Roxbury, eats nuts and nothing else the year round, doesn't drink tea, coffee or stimulants, the only liquid that Mr. Sylvester drinks is warm water that is taken after half of his meal of nuts is consumed.
Mr. Sylvester is a bachelor and lodges at 27 Montrose street, Roxbury. He is 61 years of age, and began to live on nuts two and a half years ago, finding it a cheaper way of living, and enjoys the best of health since he stopped eating other food.
Mr. Sylvester wanted some nutriment to take the place of meat, which was harmful to him in hot weather and didn't seem to agree with him in winter, so he decided to live on nuts, finding as much and more nutriment in them than meat. Peanuts, chestnuts and all other nuts in their season are eaten by Mr. Sylvester. The only time he breaks his diet is Christmas and Thanksgiving.
"Mastication is the most important thing in living on nuts," said Mr. Sylvester to the reporter; "if the nuts are chewed until no taste remains then swallowed, they are the healthiest and best thing for a man to live on. They don't make you good looking, as you can see by me, that's why you can't have my picture, but for a man 61 years old I'm as healthy as can be found in Boston." Judging from Mr. Sylvester's looks his statement is right.
GOAT STARVES HIMSELF.
Fine Mountain Specimen in Pittsburg Refuses to Eat.
Pittsburg.—Intended as a gift to the zoo of Riverview park, Allegheny, a fine mountain goat, brought from British Columbia by D. C. Byers of Sewickley, will instead, as the result of an incident, go to the Carnegie museum. The incident was the death of the goat.
Mr. Byers and W. R. Scalfe returned from a hunting trip of several weeks in Canada. The goat, a fine specimen, weighing more than 250 pounds, was captured in the Stickline river, on the border line between Alaska and British Columbia. It is supposed to have been chased into the water by a bear.
The death of the goat was directly due to starvation. He refused to eat a bite while in captivity. On only two or three occasions did the goat drink any water, either. It was expected, however, that after his being taken from the box in which he was shipped to Pittsburg he would begin eating. Instead, he shied at food more than ever.
Mr. Byers says the goat has a fine pair of horns and is a magnificent specimen in every way. When he reaches the museum and is mounted proudly on a rocky pedestal, it is expected he will attract almost as much attention as if he were alive in a zoo.
CELESTIAL CALAMITY AT YALE.
Scion of Royal Family Plunged on Head in Deep Marsh Hole.
New Haven, Conn.—An international calamity marked the first of the Yale geological outings, when a number of the students under the guidance of Prof. Barrett started on an expedition to the quarries along Stony creek. With the party was Ponson Carlos Chu of Shanghai, a sclon of the royal family of China, whose father is high in the government life of the country.
Riding to the quarries in a freight car, the students spent several hours, starting back through the marshes for a short cut to the railroad. Ponson is one of the dandiest sports Yale has seen in several years, and he nearly fainted at the sight of the marsh and looked at his new fall costume. Accepting the offer of Arthur Mullin, of Salem, O., to carry him across on his back, all went well until Mullin stepped into an unseen hole to his waist and the royal lad from China was thrown head foremost, his head going deep into the mud and his princely legs sticking up in the air. He was rescued, but his face had changed from the Mongolian yellow to the samba hue of the Ethiopian. Ponson says geology is a hard course.
OWL FIGHTS LIKE EAGLE.
Huntsman Interferes with Its Pursuit of a Squirrel.
Allentown, Pa.—Adam Bohlinger, of Upper Milford, the other morning started for the Coleraine mountains on a squirrel hunt. He started early, so as to arrive just before sunrise, when the squirrels begin to feed.
Just as dawn was breaking Mr. Bohlinger saw a monster owl fitting through the woods, and the next instant it darted for a squirrel.
It missed and tried again. Then Bohlinger fired. It dropped and Bohlinger tried to pick it up and immediately discovered that instead of killing it he had only succeeded in breaking its wing.
The wounded owl fastened its talons in Bohlinger's hand and put up so desperate a fight that before the hunter succeeded in killing it his face and hands were torn and scratched in a frightful manner and he was totally exhausted. A physician dressed and cauterized his wounds. The owl is one of the biggest seen along these mountains in many years, and Bohlinger will have it stuffed and mounted.
