Colorado Statesman

THE COLORADO STATESMAN THE JOURNAL OF THE WEST. LABOR SHALL BE FREE RAGE COUNTRY PARTY CRIME Amon Negroes as Compared With that Among Other Races. The Negro in the South Have Little Chance to Escape Conviction when Arrested. Here in the South we hear much of the talk of crimes among Negroes coupled with that of their shiftliness and a desire to supplant the Negro with foreign labor, etc., but if those who indulge most freely in this talk would weigh well the matter, they would take a different view of it. In the South, the courts, judge, prosecuting attorney, jury and court officers are always white and have little or no sympathy with Negroes accused of crime and in nine cases out of ten the burden of proof rests with the Negro to show his innocence, rather than with the state to prove his guilt beyond the shadow of a doubt. It is this state of affairs that has sent hundreds of poor, innocent Negroes to felons' cells or to the scaffold, when white men would have gone scot free. The decent, respectable element of the race, at least here in Richmond, are seldom, if ever, hauled up to court to face a charge of crime committed. This can be verified by court officials. The men and women who are always in court are the same ones who have no fear of prison bars and shackles. White men of high degree, respected, and holding positions of trust and honor in the affairs of the State and leaders in things socially, fall from grace oftener than do colored men occupying similar positions among their people. We deeply deplore the fact that there are many worthless men and women among the race, but it is the same among other races. Human nature is pretty much the same the world over as it pertains to civilized people, whether that nature is found beneath the black skin, brown skin, red skin, yellow skin or white skin. And so, among all races and people are to be found the good and the bad. If some of our white friends who are clamoring so loudly for Italian and Swede labor for farm hands or for day laborers were given a year's experience among the foreign laborers in the Pennsylvania coal fields and from foundries or in some of the great industries in New York and Chicago, where a large element of the labor is foreign, the tenor of their song would soon change. They would, in a short time, learn that the "Black Peril" of the South would fade into insignificance before the "Red Peril" of Europe, with the trail of murder and criminality everywhere VOL. XIV, that Among Other Races. The Little Chance to Escape men Arrested. it shows its head. In New York and Chicago and in the Pennsyl- vania coal field, murder, robberies, black hand practices, the mafia outrages are more numerous than in blackest Italy. The Commissioner General of Immigration attributes fifty per cent. of the crimes committed in New York and Chicago to foreigners. More than sixty per cent, of the insane of New York are foreigners, he says; while the Attorney General of the United States, in a recent report said, one in every seven convicts in federal prison were foreigners. The percentage of alien crimes in the North is far ahead of the percent age of the population, and yet, these are the immigrants with which many of the South want to supplant the Negroes, who has an inherent right in southern soil. If the South wants the anarchist, the nihilist and the mafia with their murders, strikes, robberies and crimes innumerable, let them come but the South will rue it.—Reformer. RACE NEWS Gathered from Various Sources. Cleveland has colored street car conductors and motormen and 15 colored teachers employed in mixed schools. The Brownsville, St. Louis and Western Railway have discharged all Negro brakemen and are now only using white help. Washington, Nov. 11.—The conviction and sentencing of C. B. Boyett, charged with intimidating Negroes was annuled by the supreme court of the United States. The alleged offense was committed in Bradley county, Arkansas, in 1905, when Boyett and other white men drove away a number of Negroes employed by the Arkansas Lumber Co. by posting notices warning the Negroes and firing guns in their vicinity. The whites were tried in the federal court for the eastern district of Arkansas and eash was sentenced to pay a fine of $1,000 and serve a year in prison. Today's decision was based on a former decision in which it was held that as Negroes are citizens they must rely on the state courts in such cases as this, rather than on the federal caurs. --- The growth and success of this store has been regarded as a marvel, in view of its small beginning. It is doubtful whether in the entire great West there can be cited an instance of greater progress in so short a time. The cause of it all, however, is not hard to tell. The men who formed this great company believed and believe in themselves. And with self-reliance, the battle of life is already half won. Then they studied the local market and the wants of the community. To this they brought those sterling qualities which ultimately underlie the foundation of all business success—watchfulness, untiring energy, scrupulous integrity, unfaltering reliability, and over all, that undefined and subtle faculty we call tact. The old man whose name heads the Company died nearly a year ago, but the business moves on quite as smoothly and prosperously under the efficient management of his three sons, the oldest, A. D. Lewis, being president and general manager, while another stays in Europe studying the markets there to enable the company to provide the people of Denver seasonably with the earliest fashions and styles. make it win. In this age advertising much more than competition might be said to be the life of trade. No standard business can live and progress rapidly without judicious advertising. In this sort of work John L. Hunter, the able, affable, cultured, hustling advertising manager of this store is a veritable past master. He is keen, alert and tactful. His system of advertising is attractive and conched in terms that arrest the eye and haunts the memory. The advertiser should be largely imbued with the literary instinct, and this trait is so highly developed in Mr. Hunter that his ads are almost poems that catch you at once. This store conducted by progressive and wide-awake young men is employing a large number of our young people along with its hundreds of other employes. The COLORADO STATESMAN believes that this ts an additional reason why the race should remember and patronize The A. T. Lewis & Son Dry Goods Co. when new supplies are to be purchased. --- DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 23, 1907. A. T. LEWIS AND SONS DRY GOODS COMPANY. The COLORADO STATESMAN in a previous issue promised its readers and patrons to direct their attention to the great stores of Denver, where such purchases as they might wish to make now and during the approaching holidays, may be most satisfactorily made. In this issue it presents here for special notice the great department store of The A. T. Lewis & Son. Dry Goods Co. which for its small beginnings, phenomenal growth and present remarkable and high position in the commercial life of the city, stands as a fitting and enduring monument to the keen business foresight and enterprising genius of its founders. The above cut is a good picture of the present palatial home of this great and ever increasing business. The building has a frontage of a half block on 16th street, and 150 feet on Stout street. A picture on the same scale of the modest little store where the business was first started in 1890 would offer a most striking contrast to the present spacious establishment. It would represent a single floor, fronting only 371 feet on Sixteenth street and extending to a depth of 100 feet. Yet this great change was accomplished in the brief period of a dozen years. For it was in 1902 that the company moved into its present quarters. But in that little space of twelve years is at once written the record of the business acumen and sublime faith of the Lewises in the future of Denver, and the splendid testimonial to the accuracy of their judgment. Here you find a store that would be distinguished in any city, elegant in all of its appointments and filled on all its five floors with every object of merchandise that may tempt the heart of man, woman or child. You enter it, and have not to wait, for at once the keen eye of the ubiquitous floor walker sees you. With great politeness he directs you to the particular department you wish, where with equal courtesy and attention you are waited upon by the clerks. You are bewildered by the richness, abundance and variety of the good things you see, while you are charmed by the artistic and tasteful arrangement which sets them off to the best advantage. And now you decide to buy, for it is here the price, the quality and the polite service, all meet and woo you into dropping a dollar where it could not be spent anywhere else to better advantage. The best assurance a colored man can get of the fairness towards his race of any business house or firm, is to see that firm or business man advertise in a colored newspaper. It is an established fact in the minds of all intelligent people that a decent newspaper published by and in the interest of any race or nationality is read by the best element of that people, with greater interest and sympathy than is any other publication. An advertisement is not necessarily placed in a Catholic paper, a Jewish paper, a German paper or an Afro-American paper because it is believed that this particular class of people do not read the firm's advertisement in the general newspapers, but because the fair minded, enterprising merchant or business man fully appreciates the importance of having the members of that race or class understand that he is duly appreciative of their patronage, he knows that it has the same effect as did the personal visits of the old-fashioned preacher and politician made to their people. Since it is impracticable for the proprietors of large establishments to stamp their personal individuality upon the many departments thereof by personally getting in contact with a great number who visits and patronizes their places they persue the next best course of reaching the public personally. We cannot close this sketch without mentioning the name of a man, whose particular line of work in this great business is absolutely necessary to its success. After all is said, advertising is the great engine to bring an enterprise before the people and enlist their interest—to NO. 9 And their is no better way than through the columns of their respective class journals. Intelligent people with the proper sense of self-respect will refrain from spending their money with people who do not care for it, especially when there is no advantage in so doing. And the merchants had just as well understand that fact now as later.—True Reformer. John Walker, colored, of Macon, Ga., was taken from jail, riddled with bullets and his body thrown into a log fire. He is said to have robbed two small boys of seventy-five cents. T. McCant Stewart, once a great force in the life of New York City, is now a resident of Liberia, where doubtless he is the first citizen. Assuredly, he is the legal light of the Republic. With President Barclay he has just returned to Monrovia from London, where they went to discuss the boundary question with the Foreign office. Manila, Nov. 11.—A Japanese and an American Negro had a fight at Olangapo over the right of the Japanese to place his national flag higher than the American ensign on the birthday of the Emporer of Japan. The American was arrested and the Japanese was sent to the hospital for repairs. Price & Co. LADIES WEARING APPAREL 1 Short coats of fancy wove mixtures full pleated skirts with fold.

Phone 1461 Main Within three miles of Johnstown 73,000 tons of sugar beets were hauled to the factory last month, giving their growers $365,000. The Colorado State Commercial Association estimates that the production of beet sugar in the state this year will amount to $16,000,000. A. E. Wilson of Denver has been granted right of way five miles long in Pike's Peak forest for generating electricity for commercial purposes. It is estimated that this year's crop of sugar beets will give Morgan county farmers in the neighborhood of $1,000,000—which is a good round sum. Money to the amount of $197,130 was deposited in the four banks at Greeley on the 16th inst., which was fifty per cent. more than was drawn out. Ault has nearly completed its new water works and has purchased fire hose, carts, etc., costing nearly $2,000. The city has had two destructive fires in its short history. A large party of Kansas capitalists interested in the Denver, Laramie and Northwestern railway came to Colorado a few days ago in a private car to look over the right of way. A carload of blooded hogs from Minnesota is being distributed among farmers around Longmont for breeding purposes. Farmers are preparing to go into hog raising extensively. The big steel trusses to support the roof of the Denver Auditorium are being rapidly put in place. Work is being rushed with a view to having the hall ready for meetings by May 1st. George Bradley claims to have hauled the largest load of beets in Weld county this fall. It was taken to the Mead dump and its gross weight was 15,640 pounds, or 13,190 pounds net. The largest funeral ever held in Platteville was that of Mrs. Hannah Birkle, wife of David Birkle. The funeral cortege was over a mile in length. Mrs. Birkle lived in the Platte valley forty-three years and was widely known. The Great Western Sugar Company began paying farmers for their beets at Longmont on the 15th inst., about $800,000 being required. Contracts are being signed for 1908 by the beet growers, which are the same as used during the season just ending. The sheriff of Mineral county has taken James Selfridge to Canon City to begin serving the life sentence imposed on him in the District Court at Creede. Selfridge was convicted of the murder of H. B. McKinney, a contractor at Wagon Wheel Gap. Joe Butcher, aged thirteen, is making quite a business of killing rattlesnakes near Fort Morgan. In the last two months he has killed fifty-five and has saved the skins of twenty-five. These snakes were all found in one place, a sand hill with a southern slope, about seven miles from here. Sheriff Clark of La Plata county has accepted the bonds offered by William R. Mason and Joseph Vanderweide, charged with the murder of Joseph A. Walker, United States secret service agent, who was killed at Hesperus, near Durango, November 2d. The bonds submitted were for $20,000 each. Lee Haney, advertising agent of the Colorado Midland railroad, has gone East to consult with passenger agents at Chicago, Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, New York and other cities relative to advertising this state in next season's literature. He has made a special study of Colorado advertising and many roads are planning to issue special booklets on Colorado next year. The injunction asked by Horace G. Clark, clerk of the Supreme Court of the state, to restrain the Greeley Northern Railroad & Utility Company from building or trespassing on Clark's farm, south of Greeley, was granted in the District Court at Greeley. Recently the railroad graded for over 1,000 feet on this farm, which grading the owner tore away and then sued for an injunction. All records for a single day's production at both the Grand Junction and Garden City beet sugar factories, owned by Colorado Springs men, were broken Sunday, the 17th inst.. At the Grand Junction factory the output for the day was 1,730 bags of sugar, and at the Garden City plant 2,540 bags. Both of these factories are running at their full capacity, and the indications are that all records in production will be broken this year. E. P. House, called the Colorado Burbank because of his development of plant life on his farm west of Greeley, where he is experimenting to produce grasses and grains for dry farming, has succeeded in developing a peanut vine with many characteristics of the sweet pea. Last summer he sifted pollen of the sweet pea flowers on those of the peanut vine with the result that the latter shows stems and blossoms resembling that of the sweet peas. The peanuts are unusually large and fine. New maps of the Pike's Peak region are being prepared by the United States government from surveys which are being made under the direction of Richard T. Evans, one of the topographers of the department. This survey will cover about 1,000 square miles and the maps will be the most complete ever issued. A part of the work will be the establishment of the height of Pike's Peak, which by a recent survey was placed at 14,107 feet, about forty feet less than that formerly quoted in the government maps. In the District Court at Denver on the 18th inst, Judge Bliss ordered Former State Treasurer Peter Breeue to bring his three-year-old son from New York and produce him in the West Side court before the expiration of two weeks. The order followed the refusal of Judge Bliss to dismiss the writ of habeas corpus secured by Mrs. Bernice Breene, the wife, the week before. Breene kidnapped the child on October 17th from the home of Mrs. Shanley in Valverde on the ground that his wife was not capable of caring for the boy. In her petition for a writ of habeas corpus Mrs. Breeene brought a similar charge against her husband with the additional complaints of cruelty and profanity PERUNA A TONIC OF GREAT USEFULNESS. HON. R. S. THARIN Hon. R. S. Tharin, Attorney at Law and counsel for Anti-Trust League, writes from Pennsylvania Ave., N. W., Washington, D. C., as follows: "Having used Peruna for catarral disorders, I am able to testify to its great remedial excellence and do not hesitate to give it my emphatic endorsement and earnest recommendation to all persons affected by that disorder. It is also a tonic of great usefulness." Mr. T. Barnecott, West Aylmer, Ontario, Can, Can, writes: "Last winter I was ill with pneumonia after having a gripe. I took Peruna for two months, when I became quite well. I also induced a young lady, who was all run down and confined to the house, to take Peruna, and after taking Peruna for three months she is able to follow her trade of tailoring. I can recommend Peruna for all such who are ill and require a tonic." Pe-ru-na 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. Each tablet is equivalent to one average dose of Peruna. In the Church. "Of course," said Tess at Miss Yner's wedding to Mr. Timmid, "the bride looks lovely, as brides always do." "Yes," replied Jess, "but the bridegroom doesn't. He appears rather run down." "Run down?

Recent dispatches gave a brief account of a fight in the Philippines between a Negro soldier of the United States and a Japanese soldier over the effort of the latter to run a Japanese flag above the stars and stripes upon the occasion of the Japanese Emporer's birthday. The account said that the Negro was arrested and the Jap went to the hospital. The superiority of the black soldier as an athlete or rough and tumble fighter may be gratifying, but we rather regret that black men and yellow men, in their individual capacities, shouldundertake to settle the diplomatic affairs of white men with their fists. The Negro need have no fear that the Jap flag will get so high in the Philippines that the dragon will look like a streak of yellow down the eagle's back, without the matter being properly reported to the war department at Washington. THE CRIME OF IDLENESS the entire development of humanity's mission has been made for the idler, the lover, the man experience, where, we often are, real examples, the bee family furnishes not when the drone is fallen upon by the devoured alive.

Indeed, it is necessary for the natural happiness. But just as all other criminal, moral and social order, so comes the idler, the loafer, in opposition to, and as an enemy of need. His development is rapid, as it not His one ambition is to become a professious man who labors steadily throughout so has a tendency to seek the excitement of the week's end, becomes the natural, stealthy loafer. The victim is waited for, badgered and encouraged with occasional wicked. Foolish working men, following big bravado, consent to become thus the pro-for idlers, loafers, gamblers and thieves. System is criminal there can be no doubt. Exercised over all those who contribute to be apparent. Keepers and those who give them protection, promoters. The idlers and hangers on, the thieves, the indolent gamesters and tough young. Throughout the entire development of humanity's complex social order, no provision has been made for the idler, the loafer, the drone. Outside of human experience, where, we often are compelled to look for practical examples, the bee family furnishes a solitary and striking precept when the drone is fallen upon by the hive en masse, and is literally devoured alive. But men tolerate the idler and the loafer because it is humane to do so. aand because the charge for his keep is presumed to fall ordinarily upon some of his own relations. This presumption does not hold good in modern experience, because, strangely enough, with the development of society, the loafer has developed also. Despite his natural aversion to productive labor, he thinks occasionally with his head, and it requires but little thought on his part to put himself in touch with the out-croppings of legitimate social conditions. The sporting spirit, the gambling mania, is the great connecting link between society and the loafer, and it is the one great artery through which he systematically sucks his substance. The "natural born" idler, sometimes found in rural districts, and who is the jest of the farmers or of the country village, suffers under, or perhaps, enjoys, some physical affliction, but the highly developed loafer whose habitat is the dives and dens of the modern city, comes nearer to being a perverse criminal, in whose classification society has been altogether too tardy. Honest labor, with hand or brain, is the fundamental social need; it is the system of basic energy upon which all society depends and is developed. It is the true source of all individual success as well as of human progress. Indeed, it is necessary for the natural perpetuation of health and happiness. But just as all other criminals are developed against the moral and social order, so comes the idler, the loafer, the tout, the gambler, in opposition to, and as an enemy of, this fundamental social need. His development is rapid, as it needs to be to entice the lazy. His one ambition is to become a professional gambler. The industrious man who labors steadily throughout the day and week, and who has a tendency to seek the excitement of sporting life at night or at the week's end, becomes the natural, steady prey of the professional gambler. The victim is waited for, badgered, cajoled and enticed; he is lured and encouraged with occasional winnings, but in the end he is robbed. Foolish working men, following a false disposition of sporting bravado, consent to become thus the perpetual source of sustenance for idlers, loafers, gamblers and thieves. That the system is criminal there can be no doubt. That legal control should be exercised over all those who contribute to its continuance ought to be apparent. The dive keepers and those who give them protection and support are the chief promoters. The idlers and hangers on, the loafers, bummers and runners, the indolent gamesters and tough young sports are the apprentices.

These questions may seem superfluous and unimportant to the embryonic statesmen of our race, but the student of passing events may realize that we are talking of matters very much within the realm of near possibilities. Both of the great political parties of the present ars undergoing radical changes in the characters of their fundamental principles and classes of individuals in each of these parties are even now struggling for mastery. Great industrial financial and economic questions are forging their way to the front, and under the dictates of men of brilliant minds, are absorbing the attention of constituencies better used to ideas and primes which many compaigns have not satisfactorily settled. And these new questions are driving out the old ones, and whether the passing of the latter shall be quick or slow, their final shelving seems a certainty With the passing of old questions must come new political allignments and the nature of the new issues are such that entirely new di- visions must take place among the people and even within the ranks of the parties to whose hitherto settled principles they have clung as sacred inheritances, hallowed by time and the blood of their forefathers. It is the settled purpose of far-seeing statesman to work a change in the political faith of the people, regardless of its effect upon party names or party organizations. Sectional issues and feelings have long been deplored by earnest men and the desire to drive them out of the national life is greater than the determination to remember or defend their cause. The great industrial and economic questions furnish the methods by which compromises are to be wrought and great changes realized. War questions and race questions are to be obliterated, and, incidentally, the colored man and his special interest are to be regarded by the dominant people as unnecessary and useless issues. Those interests are to be submitted to the conscience of the nation, while the dominant people make new allignments upon the issues more vital to themselves. Then must come the new political parties, built upon the graves of those which were largely sectional in spirit and tradition. Then where will the colored American be? With no racial motive that can be applied to prevailing issues, he must either divide his vote upon his opinions, like other elements of the people, or seek to solidify it upon candidates, as the Germans and other elements now often do. This, in the North, would probably work to his greater advantage, but in the South, where under any circumstance, his political restrictions will continue indefinitely, he will lose the prestige which he now enjoys as a factor in the machinery of one of the great parties. The study of this coming condition by thoughtful men cannot be wisely delayed. RESCUED HIM WITH PETTICOAT Bull Treed Swain and the Girl Lured the Beast Away. A bull and an opposite red petticoat were the means of reconciling George Hoyt and Miss Ella Goodman, who were lovers once, but estranged more or less of the last year. Hoyt and Edward Cowles were walking through a field at Oxford, Conn., when they were charged by a bull. A tree in the middle of the field afforded them an asylum. They gained it by the thin margin of a coat tail. The bull laid siege, and for an hour the young men surveyed the horizon for rescue. Then a carriage ap proached, and they signaled it with a coat on the end of a long stick. The carriage contained a young woman whom neither recognized at that distance. But she proved to be a person of resources. Tying her horse to the nearest rail fence, she vanished into the nearest clump of bushes and soon reappeared, waving a scarlet pet-coat. For ten minutes she stood on the stone wall and solemnly wigwagged at the bull with the flaming piece of apparel. Then the bull took notice. As he approached the young woman fled down the field along the wall, still waving the silken scarlet challenge. The bull pursued, bellowing. At the far corner of the field a fence barred his progress. On the safe side of the fence the young woman kept on waving while the two young men slipped out of their tree and then out of the field. They hastened to meet and greet the young woman. Much to the surprise of Cowles, Hoyt and the heroine fell into each others' arms as soon as they were near enough. The girl was Miss Goodman. Hoyt had in his pocket the ring she had returned to him. He put it on her finger and she said, it is said, that it would stay there until a certain day. WAS ONE ON HIM. President Forgets His Purse and Cannot Pay Check. When President Roosevelt made his western trip, while running for vice president, he arose early one morning, according to his habit, and went into the dining car for a cup of coffee. The train had stopped at a little cross road station. While Col. Roosevelt was waiting for his coffee one of the newspaper reporters from New York entered the dining car for breakfast. "Sit down here, governor," said Col. Roosevelt, "and have a cup of coffee with me." "Never mind governor," replied the reporter, as he took out his notebook and began a dispatch to his paper. "I've got just twenty minutes to write this yarn while they are switching about the yards, and, besides, I'm going to take something more than coffee." "That's all right," replied Col Roosevelt, "take whatever you like." After the colonel had finished his cup of coffee he asked for the waiters check including what the reporter had ordered, but found that he had left his purse in the private car and had only 25 cents with him. The private car had been switched away off in the yards, and Col. Roosevelt, beaming with good humor over the joke or himself, said: "Remember, John that the coffee is on me," and gave the waiter a dime—Success. Shocks From False Teeth. "False teeth have been known to generate electricity in the mouth and shock their wearer painfully," said a dentist. "Only last week a gentleman came to me and said he feared he was getting a cancer on his tongue. 'Such severe shooting pains attack me,' he said, 'that often I utter loud oaths in the most unseemly places—at teas before the minister, and so on. It is like knife thirsts. Do you think I am going to lose my tongue?' "I found that two different metals had been used in fixing the poor man's false teeth. These metals, combining with the saliva, had formed a small battery. Electricity generated in the battery continually, and shock after shock was administered to the tongue. "I painted the metal with 'an insulating varnish. Thereafter the man had no more trouble."—New York Press. Ladies Attention Mrs. M. A. Holly, who has spent some time in St. Louis perfecting herself in the scalp and hair treatment of Mrs. A. M.

WHIPPET IS SPEEDY FLEETEST RUNNER OF ALL THE QUADRUPEDS. Dog of Mixed Breed Had Its Origin and Has Been Brought to Perfection in England—Is Raced for the Amusement of Owners. Research into the origin of the whippet shows that it is a modern type of dog, and, considering how good it is in its way, it is a wonder that it is not more generally known and appreciated. The word is not in Webster's, nor is it to be found in many encyclopedias. Dalziel failed to trace the etymology of the word, but fancied it to be a provincial name expressive of the diminutive size as well as the quick action of these dogs. The old writers who mention it evidently have in mind a very different animal from the one now seen at our bench shows. Halliwell says it is a cross between a spaniel and a greyhound, which could not produce the present type. John Taylor says: "In the shapes and forms of dogs; of all which there are but two sorts that are useful to man's profits, which two are the mastiff and the little curre, whippet or house-dogge; all the rest are for pleasure and recreation." The modern whippet is a greyhound crossed with a small terrier, so as to reduce the size of the progeny, and by selection the terrier type has been obliterated and that of the greyhound preserved. This cross goes back sixty years or more, during which time a record of some sort has been kept, so that a book exists. But the dog has not been popular in shows, because, being bred to race, its appearance is of little consequence. There is nothing cruel about dog racing, and, although it is not known among wealthy sportsmen, it is a popular pastime of a large class in the manufacturing districts of England and this country. In England as many as 500 dogs are entered in one handcap and a thousand pounds will change hands on the result. The course is usually 200 yards, and the races are run in heats in which three dogs compete. The winners of these trial heats run against each other until there are but three left for the final. There are races for puppies, malden races, handicaps and races with penalties and allowances. The dogs are held at the start and run past the judge to their owners. The whippet is the fastest four-legged animal, in proportion to its weight, that is known. A good one will run 200 yards in twelve seconds, which is at the rate of sixteen and two-thirds yards per second. A race horse, running at the rate of a mile in one minute and forty seconds, is covering only seventeen and three-fifths yards per second. The dog weighs about twenty pounds, and strides about fifteen feet; the average stride of a race horse is twenty-one feet.—Town Topics. THE JOHN CARSON & BRO.

STROKE OF PARALYSIS ADJOURNMENT OF SUPREME COURT ORDERED IN RE-SPECT TO HIS MEMORY. Denver.—Charles F. Caswell, associate justice of the Supreme Court of Colorado, and for twenty-five years a prominent figure in the political affairs of the state, died Thursday at his home, 801 East Fourteenth avenue, from paralysis, following an attack of heart disease. Only a week ago Judge Caswell was at his desk in the capitol building, and his end was so sudden that it was a shock to his many friends throughout the state. Mrs. Caswell, her brother, Laurence T. Gray of Colorado Springs, and a nurse were the only ones present when the jurist breathed his last, at 8:08 o'clock Thursday morning. Judge Caswell is the first justice of the Supreme Court of Colorado to die while a member of the body. On Monday the week before the judge contracted a slight cold. He visited the chambers on Thursday, and the next day was confined to his bed. His condition was not considered serious until the next Tuesday when his heart became affected. He grew gradually worse, and shortly after midnight Wednesday night he was stricken with paralysis. Judge Caswell had no children. His only relative aside from his wife is a sister of Mrs. E. H. Brock of Lynn, Massachusetts. Chief Justice Robert W. Steele of the Supreme Court, was the first to call at the home. On leaving he went direct to the capitol, called a session of the court and then declared an adjournment. It is ordered, out of respect to the memory of Justice Caswell, that the court stand adjourned subject to call, and that the clerk's office and the library be closed until further notice. Justice Caswell's successor will be appointed by Governor Buchtel to serve until the next general election. Justice Caswell was a graduate of Dartmouth College, class of 1874. He was born in Strafford, N. H., May 10, 1851, the son of Cornelius E. Caswell and Betsy Thurston Chase Caswell. He lived in Strafford until 1858, when his father moved to Dover. His studies were begun at the Franklin academy in that city and later taken up at Northwood seminary. In July following his graduation he entered the law office of N. M. Hawkes in Lynn, Mass, where he continued his studies until admitted to the bar in September, 1877. He began the practice of law at once in Lynn, Mass. Discovery of carbonates in Leadville attracted his attention and four years after beginning the practice of law he left the East for this state. He located in Middle Park, Grand county, in 1881. Although attracted by the gold discoveries he never engaged in mining. He took up the practice of law as soon as he arrived in Middle Park and remained there until 1884 when he moved to Grand Junction. Judge Caswell was married on May 7, 1891, to Miss Jessie Tenney Gray, a daughter of Barzilli Gray, formerly of the Circuit Court of Leavenworth, Ken. His wife was a graduate of Michigan University. Fort Morgan Murder Trial. Fort Morgan.—A jury to try John Ausmus and Zara Moon, charged with the murder of Robert McDowell, was secured Wednesday afternoon. The panel is composed of J. N. Dille, G. W. Mitchener, J. H. Segelke, W. O. Zittle, R. E. Pears, H. H. Stoops, William Wilson, T. R. Bullock, O. M. Wyckoff, C. M. Word, J. E. Jackson and R. J. Nothwehr. The only witness examined Wednesday was County Coroner Potter, who testified to being informed last January of the finding of a body out in the Wild Cat district and holding an inquest. Zara Moon and John Ausmus were arrested in March. McDowell disappeared from his cabin in the spring of 1904. The defendants were seen in McDowell's company before he disappeared and bought his cattle and farm equipment. The first trial resulted in a disagreement of the jury. The defendants are young ranchmen. Royal Gorge Line Begun. Canon City.—Work was begun on the Canon City & Royal Gorge Electric line Thursday and will be pushed until the line is completed. The resumption, after a suspension of several months, was a surprise to the public, in view of unsettled conditions in financial matters, particularly in New York city, the bankers of which are supplying money to build the road. All bids submitted by Denver, Colorado Springs and Pueblo contractors for the construction were rejected and the company will do the work. The franchises cover about twenty-seven miles of trackage, which will cost $250,000. Colorado Beekeepers. Denver.

Newell told of the work of the reclamation service. Senator Gore spoke on questions of public import, declaring himself in favor of the speedy construction of the Panama canal, advocating navigable inland waterways, abusing Wall street for its alleged misuse of money from the West given to it in trust, and indorsing and approving of the administration of President Roosevelt. Referring to the President's policy, Mr. Gore said: "I indorse the policy of the national administration with reference to preserving coal of the West from private interests. In saying that I indorse the national administration, I desire to say that what is good in any administration will receive my support. I am a friend of the West. All friends of the West, whether Democrats or Republicans, look alike to me." Thomas F. Walsh of Colorado, spoke on the subject of good roads, saying: "There are many great and important public questions engaging attention at the present time, but among them all I doubt if there is one that so deeply affects all of our people financially, morally and esthetically as does' the building, beautifying and maintaining of good roads throughout the broad expanse of our country. "Strange to say, until the recent past we have treated this great question with an indifference which, viewed in the light of our progress in other directions, seems appalling. "If our civilization were judged by our roads, we would be placed as the lowest mark in the scale, for among all the civilizations of the earth, there is none so poor and backward in the march of progress but can boast of better roads than ours. As a matter of fact, we have neither roads, road system nor road government. We are barbarians in the abyssal, impassable conditions of our roads, and in the semi-political bandit system through which we annually carry on the part of caring for these ways which we honor with the name of public highways. "Let it but little longer be said of us that of all the civilized nations of the earth we have the poorest roads. "The happy homes of its citizens, and the contentment found therein, are the best guarantees of the stability of government, and good roads will multiply such homes as will nothing else that can be done for our people." James M. Brinson of Colorado, spoke in favor of the creation of a department of mines and mining. He said that five departments have been added to the executive branch of the government since the administration of Washington, and the operation of these departments and the benefits produced by them confirm the wisdom of their creation. The jurisdiction of the interior department embraces so many important and diverse interests, he said, and its duties are so multifarious that adequate supervision of the mining industry by the government or efficient co-operation are utterly impossible unless a separate and independent department of mines and mining be created. Ladies Want Saloon Money. Montgomery, Ala.—The presence of ladies using their influence against the passage of a state prohibition bill was a novelty enjoyed by the members of the legislature Monday. The bill has already passed the house. The women appealed to senators to kill the measure or amend it to make it effective not earlier than 1910. The first on the ground were Mrs. E. Semes Coliton, daughter of the Confederate admiral, Raphael Semmes, and Miss Kirkland, who, as officers of the Mobile schools, say the loss of the saloon taxes will make it impossible to carry on the schools. Foraker Endorsed. Columbus, Ohio—United States Senator J. D. Foraker of Ohio was endorsed for re-election to the Senate and for the Republican nomination for President at a joint meeting of the executive and advisory committees of the Ohio League of Republican Clubs here. The committees also declare that they have no sympathy "whatever with the proposition that has been advanced that Senator Foraker be eliminated and retired from public life because he was not able to agree with the President as to the rate bill, or joint statehood for New Mexico and Arizona, or the Brownsville matter." Wounds Prove Fatal Salida.—After battling for life for four days, McCreery Lewis, who was shot four times by Jake Colvin at Iris Saturday, died here Wednesday afternoon. He exhibited remarkable vitality, as the physicians says the wounds he received would have killed most men immediately. The remains were sent to Denver, where a mother, brother and sister reside. The brother and sister were at the bedside when Lewis passed away. Colvin is in jail at Gunnison. DOCTORS ORGANIZE UNION. Toronto Physicians Fix Higher Scale of Prices. "Torcito, Ont." The doctors of this city west of Yonge street have formed a union under the name "No. 11 Territorial Division of the College of Physicians and Surgeons." The objects of the organization are to improve the condition of the profession against quacks, establish minimum fees and amend lodge terms. The lowest fee for medical examination for fraternal societies has been fixed at $2, while the minimum fee for minor operations has been fixed at $10, and that for major operations at $50. For a first visit to a patient $2 hereafter will be charged, and $1 for each subsequent visit, while the fee for night visits will be doubled, being fixed at $3. The charge for an office visit has been made $1, including prescription, while to give anesthetics $5 will be charged. Missed His Vocation. Reginald de Koven, the composer, tells of a grocer and a druggist who attended a Wagner concert. As the program did not please them they began talking on music in general and on Wagner in particular. "Another example of the fact that every man wants to do something out of his line," said the druggist. "That's all right," assented the grocer. "Now, I'm a grocer, but I've always wanted to be a banker." "You'd probably fail," added the druggist. "Look at me. I'm a success as a druggist, yet I've always wanted to write a book. This man Wagner tries his hand at music. Just listen to it. And yet we all know he builds good parlor cars!"—Success. STATE OF OHIO, CITY OF TOLEDO, 88 FRANK J.

Miss Dresswell had just returned, after spending a week with a country friend. Imagine her consternation when she discovered her previously well-stocked wardrobe empty! "Gracious, George!" she said to her brother. "Where are all my clothes? And what in the world is that great black patch on the lawn?" The face of George exhibited all the well-known signs of conscious right-ousness, and he met her gaze unfinchingly. "Mara," he replied consolingly, "you wrote to me that if I wanted the key of the billiard room I should find it in the pocket of your bolero." "Yes, yes!" "Well, I don't know a bolero from a fichu or a box pleat, so I took all the things to the lawn and burnt them. Then I recovered the key from the ashes." She froze him with a stare, and he is now thawing slowly on the kitchen stove.—Stray Stories. His Word Not Good: John and Jim agreed to settle a difference by fighting it out. It was understood that whoever wanted to quit should cry "nough!" John got Jim down and was hammering him soundly, when Jim cried "nough!" But John paid no attention to his cry and kept on pounding him. Again and again Jim called out "nough! But John paid no heed and kept busy with his fists. A boy standing near asked: "Why don't you let the feller up? He's yelled "nough!" "But he's such a liar you can't believe him." SCHOOL TEACHERS Also Have Things to Learn. "For many years I have used coffee and refused to be convinced of its bad effect upon the human system," writes a veteran school teacher. "Ten years ago I was obliged to give up my much loved work in the public schools after years of continuous labor. I had developed a well defined case of chronic coffee poisoning. "The troubles were constipation, flutterings of the heart, a thumping in the top of my head and various parts of my body, twitching of my limbs, shaking of my head, and, at times after exertion, a general "gone" feeling with a toper's desire for very strong coffee. I was a nervous wreck for years. "A short time ago friends came to visit us and they brought a package of Postum with them, and urged me to try it. I was prejudiced because some years ago I had drunk a cup of weak, tasteless stuff called Postum which I did not like at all. "This time, however, my friend made the Postum according to directions on the package, and it won me. Suddenly I found myself improving in a most decided fashion. "The odor of boiling coffee no longer tempts me. I am so greatly benefited by Postum that if I continue to improve as I am now, I'll begin to think I have found the Fountain of Perpetual Youth. This is no fancy letter but stubborn facts which I am glad to make known." Name given by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich. Read the book, "The Road to Wellville," in pkgs. "There's a Reason."

Foster-Milburn Co., Buffalo, N. Y. COULD USE THE ROAD. Irish Soldier's Great Idea When Cover Was Badly Neceded. The following colloquy, is said to have actually occurred during one of the earlier 'battles in the Philippines: A detachment of American infantry, under orders to support a section of Capt. Reilly's battery, were halted for quite a while on a perfectly flat military road in full view and fine range of the Filipino trenches. Of course, to lie flat on the road was the only available "use of cover." In this detachment was an Irishman who had served his time with the colors in the British army before he enlisted with Uncle Sam. As a recruit he had been very prone to tell how the British soldiers did everything. As a result he was incessantly plied with questions as to his experiences. While the bullets were "plopping" down the road and kicking up the gravel, a young Yankee suddenly asked: "Say, Mike, what do the British soldiers do with their heads in a place like this" Quick as a flash came the retort: "A British soldier has no head, sorr!" After a full two-minute pause, Mike continued: "However, be that as it may, I wish I could pick up this d— road and stan' it on edge ferninst me!" DOCTORS IN GRAND JURY NET. Two Indicted in Iowa for Conspiracy to Force an Independent Physician from a Surgical Case. Waverly, Ia.—The Bremner county grand jury, which a few weeks ago indicted fourteen members of the county medical association, alleging violation of the anti-trust law, recently reported additional indictments against Dr. W. A. Rohlf and Dr. O. L. Chaffee on the general ground of conspiracy. Their alleged offense was of forcing an independent doctor from a surgical case, in which he as well as one of the accused doctors had been employed, after he had refused to sign the union scale.

A has been is a man who has spent his time with hair vigors, electric brushes and newspaper recipes, when he should have been winning a laurel wreath to cover his ignominy with. When you enter a shop state just what you want. For then the merchant can go intelligently to work to sell you something else. The great law of commerce is to sell people what they don't want. What they do want will sell itself. But, probably it is no harder to live up to your reputation when you are young than it will be to live it down when you are older.—Puck. Troublesome Growth "Does the child ever keep still a minute?" asked the woman as the youngster sprawled noisily over the couch in a dozen squirming positions at once, it seemed to her. "No," answered his mother. "They are growing when they do that, they say." "Will you please ask him to stop growing," implored the woman, "just for this week while he is visiting me?" Couldn't Discharge Him. When the jury had filed in for at least the fourth time, with no sign of coming to an agreement in the bribery case, the disgusted judge rose up and said: "I discharge this jury." At this, one sensitive talesman, stung to the quick by this abrupt and ill-sounding decision, obstinately faced the judge. "You can't discharge me, judge!" he retorted. "Why not?" asked the astonished judge. "Because," announced the talesman, pointing to the defendant's lawyer, "I'm being paid by that man there!"—Lippincott's. ITCHING RASH 18 YEARS. Girl's Rash Spread and Grew Worse Under Specialist's Care—Perfect Cure by Cuticura Remedies. "When my daughter was a baby she had a breaking out behind the ears. The doctor said that she would outgrow it, and it did get somewhat better until she was about fifteen years old, and after that she could get nothing that would drive it away. She was always applying something in the way of salves. It troubled her behind the knees, opposite the elbows, back of the neck and ears, under the chin, and then it got on the face. That was about three years ago. She took treatment with a specialist and seemed to get worse all the time. We were then advised to try the Cuticura Remedies, and now I don't see any breaking out. M. Curley, 11-19 Sixteenth St, Bay City, Mich., May 20, 1906." Not Caretaker's Fault. In answer to a complaint made by the town council of Camborne, England, that the caretaker of the recreation ground had allowed the grass to grow to an inconvenient height, that officer replied that the donkey which had formerly eaten the grass had died of lockjaw and he had been unable to buy another one to take its place.

The minister was a stranger to the gravemaker, and discussed with him the doctrines of the neighboring clergy. As one after another was mentioned the sexton wagged his head gloomily, and said: "He's no sound." At last the minister—who was a long-winded and rather empty preacher—mentioned his own name, and inquired: "Mr. — now, isn't he sound?" "Oo, aye," said the sexton, with a twinkle in his eye.

The Colorado Statesman 1824 CURTIS STREET ROOM 25. --- 222 The stern simplicity of the tailor-made coat and skirt does not appear to content us without the addition of the frilled shirt front. And the variety of frills which meander their more or less elegant way down the fronts of the shirts of fashion is simply amazing. There are frills of lawn hem-stitched, frills of pleated muslin bordered with lace, and frills of batiste embroidered in colored cotton, and frills of muslin decked with spots. These are either worn with a collar-band to match, formed in tucks and boned to set well under the back of the ears, or with a stiff linen collar fastened at the back, and pointing a little in the center of the front. Such minor details as the small tied bow of black silk, or the man's dress tie, are added or omitted at the discretion of the wearer. and was cut of white lace, which collar-band round under the breast fell the peplum arm, hanging lo little below the each side being with heavy silk the skirt. The The frill reigns supreme. And under its most luxurious aspect it boasts a center band of hand-embroidered linen lawn, and this being edged on either side with a frill of lace, may be justly written down as an edition de luxe of its kind. The collar-band, which completes this, looks its best when made of the embroidered lawn, and the little frill of lace again appears to outline the top of the neck. Our half-tone illustration displays two walking costumes under an elegant aspect. Both alike are made of cloth. No. 1 is in a dark shade of peacock blue, a shade this which is to have much consideration bestowed upon it. It is fastened with a short skirt and a long coat, and trimmed with an elaborate braid to match, the contrast being supplied by a velvet collar and cuffs which are in a dark one of purple. Purple, too, is the hat, as indeed are most hats, and this is of place with a gathered brim and a large group of shaded cock's feathers waving their influence at one side. The other dress is brown, braided in brown with the vest and sleeves of brown velvet, the undersleeves and small cavat being of ecru net, while the hat is of brown beaver lined with black velvet with a large black rosette of velvet in front, and a black feather arranged to rest on the hair at the side. Plain hats trimmed with these large velvet rosettes are very much in favor, a combination of color contributing their special claim to admiration. A dark peacock blue felt or beaver hat, for example, would be trimmed with two large choux of velvet, one of violet and the other of dull green, while the base of the crown would be encircled with small pieces of galon burnished full, and copper of tint. NEWEST THING IN SKIRTS The double, or peplum skirt, is the newest shape of the season, and is constantly gaining ground. One dress seen recently carries out the idea differently and even more effectively than in the more conventional form. The dress was of willow green velvet, with that lovely silvery sheen that one sees when the wind passes over the leaves. The skirt was quite plain, long and flowing, and trimmed solely by large silk tassels placed in perpendicular lines of three along the ceams of the skirt between the hem and the knees. It was in the bodice that the peplum idea was carried out. The front was made of a breastplate if heavy embroidery in different tones willow green silk, intermixed with a little pale blue and silver. This breastplate hung loose back and front. and was cut out over a guimpe of white lace, which rose in a very high collar-band round the throat. From under the breastplate, at either side fell the peplum draperies over each arm, hanging loose and separate to a little below the waist, the point a each side being weighted and adorned with heavy silk tassels like those on the skirt. These peplum draperies. A Velvet Coat and Skirt Costume. must not forget to say, were in soft Liberty satin of exactly the same silvery green as the velvet. The undersleeves, which were pleated the whole length of the arm, and ended like mittens on the hands, were of willow green mousseline de soie. The difference of texture and surfaces, all in exactly the same delicate color, had a delightful effect, giving interest and variety without disturbing the charming hormony of tone. The newest tones in velveteen are quite lovely, being rather dull and sad of aspect, yet endowed with some special charm by reason of the new soft surface which the manufacturers have introduced for their and our benefit. There are in the market specially good shades of dull blue, of purple with a touch of red in it, and of brown with a more than strong flavor of green in its composition. Happily, besides trimming these in the conventional form with the binding of braid, which threatened a few weeks ago to become ubiquitous to the point of monotony, the artists in costume have decided to allow them a full measure of their picturesque possibilities. Velveteen dresses are made with long flowing skirts with loosely hanging bodices bearing falling yellow lace at the sleeves, and with the waistcoats and collar-bands of yellow lace, whilst a most elegant example of a coat and skirt in velveteen is of a dull mulberry hue, with the coat faced with ecu-rinted water silk, a waistcoat of ecu lace frilling its way from neck to waist, while the sleeves to match are decorated in like manner. The rounded corner of the coat betrays the coat of to-day unmistakably, and marks the conspicuous difference between this and its predecessor.

Nothing adds so much to the appearance of a dining room as a rail up near the top on which is displayed odd bits of china, cut or fancy glass, or pewter. These plate rails may be made very decorative or they can be absolutely hideous. A jumble of color, for instance, is downright ugly, or, a rail full of china that does not harmonize with the tone of the room, though the separate pieces may not clash. This defect can be overcome this season by choosing for your decoration a nation plate rail. It will be both artistic and inexpensive, or, at least, comparatively so, as the separate plates can be bought for 50 cents and less. Each plate has the coat of arms of a different nation of the world, as nearly as possible in the natural colors. There are, of course, liberties taken with them for artistic effect, but the chief color of the frieze is in these emblems. The whole thing is given a touch of harmony by the border which is alike on all the plates. It is two tones of olive green brightened by dashes of red at regular intervals. This treatment of a plate rall would be specially good for a yellow room or one in dull gray blue, as there is enough red and bright green in the coats of arms to give warmth. COOKERY DON'TS Don't cook by guesswork. Weigh all your ingredients and test your oven before you try to bake. Don't slam the oven door. It will spoil the cake and it won't improve the pudding. Don't be wasteful. Bread crusts may be browned and ground. Bits of meat may help to improve the soup pot. Don't be in a hurry. If you skimp in the matter of time you are certain to leave some important thing undone. Don't try to improve upon a recipe until you have mastered its every detail. If you deviate from it to "save trouble," you probably will "make trouble" for yourself. Don't be discouraged by one failure. If the dish does not succeed try again, and keep on trying until you find out what is the matter. Don't fail to keep a clock in the kitchen, for time is a necessary ingredient in successful cooking. Don't fail to keep the icebox clean, for many foods like milk and butter are quick to absorb foreign odors. Don't try to economize in the matter of fruits and vegetables. Your green-grocer's bill may be larger, but you will more than save it in the doctor's bill.—From the Dellnator To Renew Oilcloth. To renew shabby oilcloth melt a little glue in one pint of boiling water, and in the evening, when the traffic of the is done, go over the oilcloth with a piece of flannel in the glue water. If this is done in dry weather the glue will be quite dry in the morning, the oilcloth will have a fine gloss and look as good as new. To prevent the edges wearing make a stronger solution of glue and while hot paint the edges with a small brush. When cleaning season comes round large quantities of floor cloth are often thrown out, as it does not seem to be generally known that it can be put to a good use when it has served its time on the floor. If cut into pieces it makes a capital fireliighter, owing to the fact that oil is largely used in the process of manufacture. Washing China Silk. A laundress who has success with china silk waistts says that they should never have soap rubbed directly upon them nor be put into hot water. She makes a suds with white soap and tepid water, washes the waist in it, rinses it very thoroughly in several tepid and cold waters, then presses the water out as much as she can with her hands without wringing, folds it carefully so that there are few creases, covers it with a white cloth and passes it through the wringer. When it is about half dry she irons it with a cloth over it. This method keeps the silk from turning yellow. Chicken with Biscuits. Take a couple of spring chickens and fry them to a golden brown. Have a deep platter lined with lettuce leaves; make small biscuits about the size of a dollar and put them on lettuce leaves, then put chicken on top. Take a quart of rich milk and thicken with a teaspoonful of cornstarch; salt and pepper to suit the taste, and a sprig of parsley, then pour gravy over the chicken and serve hot. Ginger Puffs. One cup light brown sugar, one egg, one teaspoonful of ginger, one cup mclasses, two level teaspoonfuls of saleratus, dissolved in one cup hot water, one cup melted lard, four cupfuls flour; mix in the order given and drop by a tablespoon about two inches apart in a dripping pan. Bake in a quick oven. When Using Strong Acid. When using strong acids to take out stains—oxalic acid, for instance—dissolve the acid and then apply with a medicine dropper. This will cover just the surface desired. Brightening Mahogany. An easy way to keep mahogany bright, and one that is seldom thought of, is washing the wood at frequent intervals with cold tea.
