THE COLORADO STATESMAN THE JOURNAL OF THE WEST. LABOR SHALL BE FREE RACE COUNTRY PARTY Hon WTVernon Register of the United States Treasures Spoke at Durban, North Carolina, Tuesday Night, November 29th. His Subject "The Negro in America." VOL. XIV, Hon W T Register of the United States Treaty Carolina, Tuesday Night, No "The Negro i The Honorable W. T. Vernon, Register of the United States Treasury spoke in the large auditorium of the Baptist church at Durham, N.C. on the evening of November 26th, 1907 to a crowded house. The meeting was presided over by Dr. James E. Shepard one of the Secretaries of the International Sunday School Union who is doing special work among the Colored people. When the Register arose to speak he was greeted with great applause, which continued throughout the address. His subject was "The Negro in America." Among other things he said: All true Americans regard with extreme satisfaction the preachments and efforts for an era of good feeling on the part of the leaders of the North and the leaders of the South. The coming together of the hitherto discordant elements in our body politic can but meet the approval of the patriotic citizens of the American Republic. While this feeling of charity for all and malice toward none is ever increasing, we must all agree that it should be sufficiently inclusive to embrace the Negro, and that it will never have accomplished its full purpose until he, a necessary part of this Republic, is the beneficiary of the same. If such a spirit is necessary to the rehabilitation of the Southland and the building up of the Northland as it relates to the American white man with his education, wealth and power—how much more imperative it is that the Negro, the weaker race should be fostered and encouraged in the same way. The weak look to the strong, the ignorant look to the intelligent—look to them for aid, leadership, light and justice. Justice unallow- ed, justice full and free is that which the Constitution guarantees and that which will bring a better day to our country. The evidences of progress around me, the prosperity of the Negro which I have observed in the South, all convinced me that there is here a spirit of mutual helpfullness between the races. This is gratifying and reassur- ing to those of us who desire this betterera. The elimintaion of selfishness on the part of both races should be sought after. The economic phase of the question should not be confused with the racial phase. It may be difficult for some to always realize that race prejudice should have no part in business relations. Whereever the Negro makes himself competent and worthy his color should not bar him from remunerative employment and protection of the laws in the performance of his tasks. The better element of the white race should and do look with favor and satisfaction, upon the efforts of the sturdy progressive Negro. He in turn asks and should receive their protection from any ills which may be visited upon him because of his race. Feeling secure he will more industriously strive to become a factor for the commercial and industrial uplift of his community. The sum total of the progress of his locality will be hindered or helped by his individual status. So then, the protection of the laws, the opportunity to thrive should be guaranteed him on the one hand and should be accepted by him on the other. This interdependence of the white man and the Negro must be acknowledged by all who see the right and strive for the same. I am always optimistic with regard to the final outcome of this question. The patience, industry, fidelity, hopefulness and splendid endeavor of the Negro through long generations are an earnest of the indestructibility which always counts in the lives of nations. These qualities have always made for the splendid triumph of the American white man and I believe the better natures of a people who have thus succeeded will be appealed to successfully by weaker people travelling the same pathway. It is because of this that I have faith beyond the discouragements placed before us by any who doubt the final success of the Negro. Those who advocate that the Negro should not be educated indirectly speak for more jails, more repressive laws and more crimes. To educate out of the ignoble into the noble, from the lower to the higher, from narrowness to broader, vision, from badness to goodness is the supreme duty of all who see the light. Unbiased educators, statesmen and publicists of the highest order are everywhere arguing for an enlightened citizenship which will include the Negro. In a country such as ours, where bayonets do not control, where the ballot is sovereign, where law is King, our Republican form of Government is protected and secure when civic virtue of the highest order is in the ascendant. It was an inspiring sight a few days ago to see Theodore Roosevelt, the President of the United States, Andrew Carnegie the philanthropist, James Bryce the diplomat and James R. Garfield the statesman, lay aside pressing du [Name] JOHN H. HARRIS HON. W. T. VERNON, Register of the United States Treasury. ties and weighty responsibilities, to participate in the fortieth anniversary exercises of one of the great Institutions of learning where hundreds of Negro youth are being educated. The encouragement, advice and hopefulness propounded in the addresses of these great men meant more for the race and nation than we can here estimate. Their philantropic unselfish act was but in line with the spirit of the age, which spirit is making for the amelioration of all untoward conditions and the betterment of all humanity. Such acts exhibit a lofty purpose, the outgrowth of the idea that service to others is paramount and that no mans duty is complete unless it encompasses his duty to his fellow men as well as to himself. --- As a race we must put ourselves at all times in harmony with the spirit. We shall be able to measure up to the same by making ourselves the highest types of manhood and womanhood. If we lay well to heart these thoughts and demand of ourselves the best that is within us, we shall raise ourselves in the estimation of all the world and prove ourselves worthy of all the best men of America will finally secure for us. The Register is delivering addresses in all sections of the country and is thus working earnestly to benefit the race and serve his people. After a splendid reception tendered him by the citizens of Durham, he left to attend a meeting THE NEW YORK TIMES of the A. M. E. Conference at Wilmington, N. C. where he also spoke. Atlanta, Ga., Nov. 12.—Bishop Henry M. Turner, head of the African Methodist Episcopal church; Bishhp L. H. Holsey, the senior bishop of the colored M. E. church and Bishop J. W. Hood, of the African Methodist Zion church, have been authorized by their several denominations to call a council of bishops to meet in Washington Feb. 12, 1908. It is said those bishops represent through their churches more than 2,000,000 people. Bishop Turner and Holsey are quoted as being quite dissatisfied with the political aspect of the Negro question in Georgia. They claim --- that it is destroying their churches and that more than 3,000 of their membership have gone west and North since March. RACE NEWS Gathered from Various Sources. Miss Ella B.

They told the colored people they were being enslaved by the whites, and their rights were being taken away. The whites took Blodgett and Elder to the depot and chartered a motor car and sent them away with the warning, never to return. Only cool heads prevented Blodgett and Elder from being mobbed. Blodgett is a brother of the postmaster at Atlanta. Unique Topaz in Vatican. In the Vatican at Rome is the largest topaz in the world.

ARMY NOT CORRUPTED ALL PARTIES EXCEPT SOCIAL- ISTS WILL VOTE FOR IN. CREASED APPROPRIATIONS. Berlin.—Thursday's sitting of the Reichstag was notable for the ener getic speech of Prince von Buelow. the German imperial chancellor, in de fense of the army, the Emperor and himself. . In replying to Dr, Spain, the leader of the center party who asserted that conditions prevailing in the army re- called those of ancient heathen Rome, the chancellor rose, full of fire, and de clared that no one imagined that the whole army was affected by a few in- stances of unworthiness. ‘The chan cellor assured the house that these would be sharply attended to by the Emperor, than whom no one _ strove more for a high tone of morality in both the army and the nation, It was the crown prince, he said, who had called his father’s attention” to the articles in the Dierzukunft disclosing corruption, with the result that imme- diate action was taken in the matter. He pointed out that neither the chan: cellor nor the ministers could take such a step without holding proofs of their assertions, Prince von Buelow then referred to the so-called court camarilla which ts widely alleged to have influenced the Emperor's decisions, No one, he said, had ever accused the Emperor of be ing without his own will and the cam arilla could only exist where the mon arch was willing. Such a poisonous growth as a camarilla, he said, was utterly un-German and reports regard: ing its existence could be taken as being without foundation. In concluding Lis address the chan cellor denied the assertion that he had dissolved the last Reichstag in order to protect himself against personal attacks relative to his supposed par ticipation in intrigues. The reason for such action, he raid, was the obstruc _tion offered by the center party, which desired to pit its strength against the nation’s will. Any chancellor who ha¢ submitted to such a course would have {forfeited the confidence of the nation ‘The chancellor promised to take part in the budget debate tomorrow, | Freiherr von Stengel, secretary of |the imperial treasury, stated that di rect taxation could not be raised in | consequence of the increases in the es timates and the government must rel3 | upon the indirect method, but tis ye | he was not prepared to state by wha' | means he hoped to bring the empire's | finances to a sound condition.

Dr. Spaht greeted the Emperor’s visit to Eng | land as a sign of better relations be | tween the two nations and a step to ) Wards the maintenance of the world’ peace and the development of com merce.

New York, Nov. 26.—Hale and hearty in spite of his seventy years, Ancrew Carnegie, standing beside a table piled with messages of congravu lation on his birthday, November 26th gave a rule for happiness. The rule ‘was this: “To obey the judge within and make others happy. “It the judge within gives you a lean verdict, we have no other judge to fear, here or hereafter, “But after satisfying that judge above all else the way to be happy is to make others happy.” “Can a man accomplish as much at sevonty as at forty?” he was asked, “More, bless you, more,” replied Car: negie. “All things being equal a man’s efficiency is increased at seventy, He is equipped with greater experience. ‘The world is growing better, and 1t foliows that the men in it grow better as they grow older.” Carnegie was asked: “When is man’s usefulness ripest?” “When he has attained the highest degree of perfection of which he is capable,” was the reply. “This means that if he conserves his physical and mental powers he will be ripest when he has attained long life. At seventy I am convinced that man’s usefulness In- creases with age.” BUY THE BEST COAL IN DENVER THE GREAT NORTHERN FUEL CO.

Denver.—Governor Buchtel, in par- doning three persons from prison in- stitutions the day before Thanksgiv- ing exiled each from Colorado for life, The pardons are said to be with- out precedent in carrying this condi- tion witn them. For the first time the ‘governor of the state went outside of the State Penitentiary also, pardoning ‘one prisoner from the county jail of Denver and one from the state reform- atory.

PROGRESS OF THE BIG CANAL OVER FORTY-EIGHT MILLION DOLLARS EXPENDED BY THE GOVERNMENT. REPORT OF COMMISSION WORK CAN BE BETTER DONE BY UNCLE SAM THAN BY CONTRACTORS Washington.—Full details of the work done in Panama canal during the fiscal year 1907 with a showing of what has been accomplished since the project has been in American hands, are disclosed in the annual report of the isthmian canal commission just made public. It is the first report made of operations on the isthmus since construction work has been in charge of army engineers. Aside from the $50,000,000 paid to the French company and to Panama, an aggregate of $48,285,110 has been expended by the government on the project adopted by Congress, and which it was estimated by the board of consulting engineers would ultimately cost $139,705,200. This estimate did not include sanitation and expenses of the zone government, water works, sewers and paving in Panama and Colon and the re-equipment of the Panama railroad. There is no reference in the report to the proposition which has been brought forward to extend the width of the locks to 110 feet so as to accommodate without difficulty the extreme breath in the development of shipbuilding, and this will be made the subject of a special statement from the commission. A strong position is taken favorable to continuation of the policy of doing the work by hired instead of by contract labor, a step at one time seriously considered by the administration and many arguments are presented to justify the commission in its conclusion that the canal can be built better, cheaper and more quickly by the government. On this the report says: "Omitting profits derived from subsistence and general stores, and assuming the hours of labor the same in both cases, it stands to reason that the government, when warranted in making the necessary outlay for plant, can do work cheaper than a contractor, for no question of profits enters into consideration. "The question of government work versus contract in connection with the Panama canal has been discussed, and a conclusion reached in favor of the latter method because of certain stated advantages that are claimed to result. "It is claimed that contractors have under their control and at their disposal trained labor forces, and that by a combination of such forces, through an association of contractors, team work will result, thereby accomplishing the desired end more quickly. As a matter of fact, conditions seldom enable a contractor to maintain intact his entire organization on one piece of work for transfer to another; the completion of a job means the disbanding of the force and though new work may bring to him some of his old men, a new organization must in each case be perfected. "The Panama canal presents a piece of work unprecedented in magnitude, which must be done under conditions entirely different from similar classes of work in the United States. The work naturally divides itself into dredging, dry excavation, the construction of the locks and dams, and the construction of the new Panama railroad. "There is no contractor or syndicate of contractors that by any combination could bring to the isthmus an organization ready for team work on any of these units. While it is possible for several contractors to combine forces, assuming that a sufficient number of men can be gotten together in that way, there still remains the necessity for whipping this force into shape in order to secure an organization that will produce the team work so advantageous in the accomplishments of results. "From the United States the supply of labor is the same whether the work be done by contract or by the government, and the character of the labor must be the same. So long as work is plentiful the dread of the tropics will deter men from seeking work here in preference, and this is equally applicable to the contractor and the government. An adequate supply of labor from the United States is not possible, and recourse must be had to securing it abroad. The records here show that no contractor can even attempt to recruit labor in the West Indies, and that great opposition will develop to any recruiting by authorized agents of the commission if the labor procured is turned over to contractors. These island governments cannot be blamed for their hostility toward the latter, because of their experience under the French, which left an indelible impression throughout the West Indies. "A representative of the Italian government has recommended to the authorities that Italian labor be permitted here for employment under the commission, but he is not favorably inclined to the control of such labor being vested with a contractor. "Experience has shown that continuity of construction is more apt to result in cases where the government undertakes the task when it is turned over to contractors." Sanitation, upon which so much depends for the comfort and health of the employees, is treated of in the report, a statement is made of what has been done and the declaration made that there was no yellow fever originating on the isthmus during the year.

Craig and George Bohen, the three men hurt as the result of the rampage of the insane man, are not seriously injured. In the pocket of the dead man was this note: "If anything happens to me while on the road, I ask pardon from God for my conduct. It makes me crazy when I think of the disgrace it has brought on my brothers and sisters. I am more insane today than ever. I ask forgiveness from my brothers and others whom I have offended. I have about $35 and this check (meaning a government check) from the government amounting to $22." Rodriguez was on his way to Española, New Mexico, and arrived in Alamosa Sunday night. He ate his supper in a chile parlor and when he made inquiry was directed to the Palmer House for lodgings. At 5 o'clock this morning he arose, slashed his own throat, upset the lighted lamp, set fire to the carpet and rushed into the hall velling like a wild man. He broke into room No. 4, with blood gushing from the wound in his throat, and began slashing at Leonard Nation and J. W. Craig, occupants of the room, with his knife, while they lay in bed. Nation was cut in the knee and foot while kicking at the crazy man. Craig was cut in the face, arm and neck before he finally got a chair and knocked the maniac to the floor. The two then escaped into the hall in their night clothes. Rodriguez rushed into the hall, which was full by this time of roomers who, clad only in their night clothes, were escaping from the fire. The madman encountered Anderson as he was about to descend the stairs, and with one sweep of his knife severed his jugular vein. Anderson fell down the stairs and his neck was broken. An unknown man was next encountered by the murderer, but the pugilistic ability of this man proved his salvation, as Rodriguez went to his knees from a right-hand swing to the jaw and the other made good his escape. The next man to feel the steel at the hands of the demoniacal slayer was George Bohen, who received slashes in the face, shoulder and back before he could escape. Another roomer, whose name could not be learned, floored the crazy man with a water pitcher as he rushed at him. The next room entered by the murderer was unoccupied, but his bloody trail led to the unoccupied bed. He then went into the hall and with a chair tried to batter down the door of the man who hit him with a pitcher. Marshal John Baummaster arrived and rushed up stairs. The Mexican quit battering at the door and attacked the marshal with a chair in one hand and a knife in the other. The marshal emptied his revolver at his assailant, three bullets taking effect, two in the shoulder and one in the left breast, but Rodriguez did not fall and closed in on the marshal. The officer struck his opponent over the head with his weapon and crushed his skull, putting an end to the worst tragedy that has ever occurred in Alamosa. C. B. Anderson, who was killed, was an engineer recently employed at the Biggs Lumber Company at Edith, New Mexico, and his family is now on the way from Iowa to meet him at Alamosa. He was sixty years old. Pettibone Trial. Denver.—A special dispatch from Rathdrum, Idaho, November 26th, says: Empaneling of a jury to try George A. Pettibone on the charge of being implicated in the murder of Frank Steuenberg, former governor, who was killed with a bomb December 30, 1905, will begin at 9:30 tomorrow morning. The case has been held off pending conclusion of the Adams trial at Rathdrum, so that Attorneys J. H. Hawley and C. S. Darrow could be present. Judge Fremont Wood announced today he would wait no longer than tomorrow morning, notifying County Prosecutor Vanduvn that examination of jurors would then begin. Hawley and Darrow are expected to be on hand tomorrow. Most of the other attorneys were present in court today. Senator Borah is not expected until after Congress has convened. Ploneer Journalist Marries. Denver.—Halsey M. Rhoads, special agent for the United States Agricultural Department, and proprietor of the Rocky Mountain Herald, stole a march on his friends Tuesday and was married at Cheyenne to Miss Murta E. V. Coldren of this city. The ceremony was performed by Judge R. N. Matson of the District Court. The couple returned to Denver in the evening. At the home of the groom at 3026 Wyandot street, their friends were gathered to receive them. Mr. Rhoads' duties take him to Utah and Wyoming. On his return to Cheyenne from a trip to the former state he and Miss Coldren agreed to meet there to have the marriage performed. Mr. Rhoads is an old resident of Denver and one of the pioneer newspaper men of Colorado. His bride has lived here for fifteen or twenty years and is a well known singer. Fee Law Held Invalid. Greeley.—An important ruling was made by Judge Nixon in the County Court Tuesday in the case of the Richardson Dry Goods Company of St. Joseph, Missouri, against Deck Woods. The judge ruled that the state law requiring foreign corporations to tender fees to the secretary of state before they brought suit in any state other than their own was unconstitutional interference with the interstate commerce law. The defense established its case on the fact that the dry goods company had not complied with the law, but a judgment was given in favor of it for $1,051. $7.00 Sets of Teeth for $5.00; $10 Sets for $7.00; $15 Sets for $10; Gold Crowns only. $5.00 Gold Teeth; $4.00; Silver Fillings, 50c up; Gold and Platina, $1.00 up.

Iixtraordinary crops may postpone it again, but come this contraction will, sooner or later, as certain as the tides rise and fall; and the contraction will be and must be in strict proportion to the expansion. This is a law which cannot be evaded. It lies in the nature of things. The decline in prices would have been much greater had the peo- ple not been assured that investments in the stocks and bonds of cor- porations are hereafter to be safeguarded to a much greater degree than ever before. No railroad corporation in Europe can increase its capital or its bonds or can merge with another without first obtaining authority from a recognized tribunal. Even Canada has its commission for this pur- pose. It is not only right but necessary to supervise such corporations as we do our banks. They are creatures of ihe state, enjoying many privileges, and the interests of the nation must be protected. ‘There is no impediment to the return in due season of another period of wholesome, because needed, expansion of our resources, which are rapidly rendering those of other countries of less importance. This will require capital, which will certainly flow to us from abroad, even more abundantly than before, because our new loans will give security to the foreign and our own investors hitherto lacking. Such safeguards should not be objected to by the honest official, nothing less should be demanded by the people and nothing less should the government give. All we have to do is to convince the world that our laws protect the investor as carefully as those of other civilized countries. Need of Sudustrial Training secrenn3Y JAMES A EMORY, er education. Less than 250,000 will continue into the high schools. The great majority, numbering probably 5,000,000, will leave school from choice or necessity between the ages of ten and sixteen, most of them at twelve to fourteen. Of these a small proportion will receive some sort of preparation for clerkships and office positions from schools of stenogra- phy and business, The others will have no training in the use of their hands, and will be fitted to rank only as unskilled labor, the supply of which is steadily augmented by the great volume of immigration. A boy out of this army of untrained workers may learn to operate a single machine, but he will be like the young man referred to in a recent re- port on this subject who has worked for four years in turning out a single part of a machine but had no knowledge as to how it fitted in with the other parts. Such a man can not be called a mechanic. He has none of the familiarity with the use of tools and the purpose of his work that is need- ed to stimulate his interest in his task and to make it easy for him to turn out one thing and another. ‘The chances are that he can not make even the simplest repairs on the machine that he operates. Specialization in industry and the use of machinery is bound to continue and to increase, but the man who has learned in his impressionable years to use his hands and to acquire familiarity in the relation of various appliances is certain to become a better workman than one who gets his knowledge haphazard and without following any systematic course. That is part of the pur- pose in industrial education, It is to make mechanics instead of machines of the workers, as well as to impart thorough knowledge of one partiealar subject. z While the work of special institutions may serve to meet the needs of the particular localities in which they are situated, or even to satisfy the requirements of some restricted industries, in the matter of skilled labor it is held by those who have studied this question that the only means of solving the problem presented by the 5,000,090 school children who are growing up with no prospects of special industrial training to fit them for one of the skilled trades is by the adoption of a comprehensive ‘system of trade education under the co-operation of the nation and the ‘states. Man's Chivalry Waning anes become, the less gallant men become. Equality of the sexes reduces the demand made upon certain qualities in men, hence the de- ‘crease of the supply—the active display of those qualities. Our grand- ‘mothers bad one occupation—that of home-making. ‘The occupation of the women of to-day is legion. Our grandmothers were home-quecns. In those days when a man married he’ thought, if he did not say: “The mother of my children, the queen of my heart and home.” In those more primitive times women led more sheltered lives. ‘They seemed indeed the “gentler sex”—the “weaker vessel.” Poets called them the “clinging ivy” and man the “strong oak.” ‘This very dependency and weakness caused the seed that God had planted in the heart of man for woman's defense, and protection, to burst into bloom, and lo, the beauti- fu) flower of chivalry. : Cancer asa AT RA QL an clare maaan eRe nee RRR PTHE COLORADO\ ey rESMAN : i = nF rey a Oe freely SS ee eel, ere, ew = Put [Bt Areas: eke AD = ee EL SG Ss Vn ee tee ee = = SSE WF CARD BEREAN pra eel P= IER SS aE 408.

PREDICTION is made that in less than two years Colorado will be a ‘dry’? state. Not that the streams are to disappear and irrigation fail; not that the already transparent atmosphere is to become more rarefied; but that the cup that cheers is to give way to the liquid that cleanses. This idea of drinking what was intended for bathing pur- poses has caught on so hard in the South that some folks think it should just naturally come on West. But it should not be forgotten that Colo- rado is Nature’s sanitarium, and that medieal science agrees that ozone and whisky are inseparable ingredients of that elixir of life on which we stake our unassailable reputation. THE IDLE NEGRO. LAST week we had something to say about the ‘‘ecrime of idle- ness,’’ as it applied in a general way to all classes of individuals. Now we propose to add something to the subject with particular reference to its application to the colored American. Perhaps other classes of people furnish as great a proportion of idlers as the colored people do, but from our point of observation it does not seem so. Fewer avenues of employment are open to us, and discouragements, in many more forms than appears to be the case with other classes of people, lay a check upon our ambitions; but these things do not justify us in be- coming the leaders of that profligate horde which aims to ‘‘get by’? without that steady and studious exertion which is supposed to be nee- essary to permanent success and progress. ‘The difficulties of an indi- vidual or of a people are rightfully the greatest incentives to effort. It is not merely to enjoy privilege and ease that we struggle, but it is to overcome the things that are ever in-the way of our progress. When the things that beset us today are overcome, we will find others to em- ploy our efforts upon the morrow. But the comparative depths from which we must rise, obligate us, more or less, to avoid waste of time and opportunity, and to apply ourselves with diligence, patience, de- termination and untiring energy to the work necessary to bring us abreast of the times and of the people who set the pace for that portion of the world in which we live. The colored people of the United States have a great and mighty work before them; a work so important and so imperative that there ¢an be no exeuse for the man or the woman who wantonly abandons the solemn obligation which his or her own conscience and innermost desires thrust upon them as soon as they arrive at that stage of intel- jigence where they realize that we are a proseribed people, struggiing at the very bottom of the writhing masses of humanity. Looking im- mediately about us, we see another race of people dominating every avenue of life, and holding us in fierce and fearful check, even while professing devotion to the principles of human justice, and an equal opportunity and universal interest. We realize all the disabling conditions that beset us, and when we look away into the world and its history we see the racial root from which we sprang still in its savage state. And we see no other great, distinct division of the human family without an organized, civilized government. Negroes without intelligence enough to appreciate com- parisons do not let such grave thoughts disturb their natural joy of living; but the young, who are imbibing modern knowledge and mod- ern conceptions of life, and the old, whose wiser heads and clearer minds give them deeper discernment, feel the rush of awakening ambi- tion and the tug and throb of race love and race pride, and hear the vioce of human nature urging them to work, strive, struggle, fight, without waste and with all care and wisdom for the uplift of a race whose inherent powers are as great as those of any race that the world has known. If every Negro could be brought to realize the solemnity of this situation, the crime of the idler, the gambler, and all the shift- less followers of the immoral and reckless examples of the white man’s poorest representatives, would be more apparent. But nothing but the ding, ding of everlasting admonition and condemnation will bring some Negroes to a realization of the truth. IDEAT, SOCTAT.TSA\T POCTALISM, viewed in the light of a practical proposition for the perfection of civil government, is not thoroughly understood in this country, nor perhaps in any other country; the study and application of the Socialistie idea, we may better say, has not gone to such depths in this country as it has gone in Europe. Students of political economy, uninfluenced ‘by political ambitions, have given careful study to the principles outlined by Socialistie writers of note, but the ordinary indi- vidual’s idea of a Socialist arises out of his recollections of some street corner harangue, heard usually at night under the glare of a naphtha light, and delivered by some superficially educated and youthful talk- ing machine, who denounced with assured vehemence all existing social and political conditions and laughed to scorn all ideas of reform save the simple, Utopian remedy which he seemed to understand, but never fully or satisfactorily explained to that questioning element whose cur- iosity had detained them in his audience. The usurpations of the eapi- talistic class and the yokes and burdens of the wage-earners; the greed of the corporations and the erimes of bought up statesmen; the wrongs of suffering labor, the producer, and the tyranny of the idle rich, the eonsumer; and many other startling and ill-defined ideas are carried away by the inexperienced and amazed anditor from these foot to foot “talks.”? And the average Socialist is an argumentative individual with a Jarge stock of hatred against various classes of his fellowmen whose circumstances place them in some degree of opposition to his own ar- bitrary ideas and desires. But there is a true Socialism, and the true Socialistic idea seeks such 2 re-adjustment of the social conditions and relations of humanity that all may enjoy the highest possible benefits arising from the agere- vate relationship, avithout imposing upon the actual and just rights of one another. It is an ideal conception and its development calls for the most sincere and devoted sacrifice of the spirit of selfishness in all classes and among all individuals. But Socialists, as a rule, do not realize the depths of their own doctrine, which they deem to be a polit- ical doctrine. Hence a studious Socialist in Cripple Creek, who asked Dr. Melvor Tyndall, editor of The Swastika Magazine, why he does not advocate Socialism, will hardly appreciate his far-hailing reply when he says: “T believe in all the principles expressed in the best exposition of the political doctrines of Socialism. But I do not believe that the ear- rying out of those principles ean be forced by battle or ballot. Te desire to carry them out must be born of wisdom, tolerance and understand- ing. These qualities I do not find among the Socialists of the average elass. They are usually the first to declaim against ‘foreign’? immigra- tion. ‘They are not tolerant, in fact, they are not even just. They advoeate the same old, primitive medieval principles of forée that are the direct cause of present economic conditions. In other words, the iJeals and the principles of Socialism must appeal to everyone with the power to think, but the methods by which they seek to obtain the adoption of these principles are open to criticism. “Firstly, my Socialistie brothers, take into your hearts this truth: There can be no ‘foreigners’ in true Socialism. There can be no ‘scabs.’” ‘There can be no ‘enemies,’ There can be no distinction of class or of color or of caste. When you are ready to acknowledge this evident, fun- damental and palpable truth, then you ean count me an active So- cialist.’” All this flurry of the day, the excited actors will shortly be talking of as a reminiscence of the past, wondering why they didn’t see how fleeting it was to be and resolving that they will not be carried away again so easily with the rush of wild speculation when prices go sky high, nor so unduly cast down when prices fall. But you know where the path is paved with good resolutions. Even if those in trouble to-day did act more conservatively next time there would be a crowd of new and less experienced speculators to repeat the old folly.

Being a stranger in the city and wan. dering about the streets looking for a decent place for my thanksgiving din- ner, I luckily stumbled into the “Rhine,” Denver's chief dining place for her “fashionable” Negroes. Of course I have been in a number of Ne- gro restaurants, and they have all ap- peared about the same, both in food and general furnishings, but here is one inthe far West that may rightfully take rank with the best in the country. But about the dinner. It really makes one feel good to be ushered into a neat, clean room, with furnishings plain but artistic, and linen of snowy white to correspond with elegant glass and sil- verware, and where one is surrounded wita walls of aeavy mirrors so we can see ourselves as we sit and sip our ju- lips and our cocktails and keep an eve on our vanity as well, it really seems that “getting to be more like white folks every day” is fast coming into facts'rather than fancy. Now wouldn't it make any fellow feel good to have a charming pair of brown hands slip your dinner in front of you with grace, quietness and precision, and when spoken to, you immediately catch that low southern drawl, your meals are served promptly and with a neatness that resembles home, and you miss the usual gossip heard among Negro wait- resses about the frolics of the night before, the coming appointments, and, of course, the old slip-shod, sloyealy way the food is served to you, ard you make a solemn vow that you will go back again and take others who are looking for service rather than form. Mr. R, H. Norwood, a recent arrival in the city, is the sole owner of the “Rhine,” and Miss Augusta Greene and Miss Duleinea F. Pierce are the own- ers of those brown hands that set such dainty and palatable food before you. AN OBSERVER. Local Notices. Hair cut 15 cents, 1847 Blake street ‘The John B.

Rural French Critics Gave Sculptor Unhappy Half Hour. At Chalon-on-the-Saone has just been inaugurated the monument exe- cuted by Moreau-Vauthier and Berard to commemorate the national defense —superb cuirassier who carries across his saddle the body of a color bearer who yet clasps in his arms his broken standard. On the eve of the unveiling the mu- nicipal council, presided over by the mayor, repaired to the foot cf the statue to examine aad see if it should be accepted. “Are you not going to tear off this green mold?” asked the mayor of the sculptor, “But, monsieur,” replied the sculp tor, “that is verdigris.” “Verdigris! Verdigris!” said the mayor. “I understand that very well. Parbleu! I know that this is verdi- gris; but it is dirty. If I had a kitchen ouifit of that color I would have {t scoured. That must be cleaned up. You'll have to make that shine.” “But, monsteur—” At that moment a member of the council having struck the body of the bronze horse with his cane, they all cried out: “This sounds hollow!” “Your bronze is hollow, monsieur,” vaid the mayor. ‘The unhappy sculptor then took great pains to explain that all bronze statues were hollow, The mayor maintained an air of defiant incredul- ity, and as he passed around the monu- ment said: “It appears to me you have hardly detailed the hair in the tail.” ‘This was too much for the sculptor. “I wished,” he said, “to screw natural hair into his tail like the hair used In children’s hobby horses. It would have taken six months to have done so, and I reflected that it would have cost you too much.” And the municipal council of Chalon agreed with the justness of this ob nervation.—Le Cri de Paris. imi Paanttad Villane: ‘The site of the erstwhile flourishing village of Brendon is represented by a few gaunt stone chimneys, a stray cluster of roofless cottages, a dilapi- dated Dissenting chapel, a ghostly railway station and one fair-sized shop, which serves the needs of the scattered community living on the Brendon Hills, says H. G. Archer, in the Wide World Magazine. But for many years the deserted village was left just as it was when the miners occupied it, and as such presented an extraordinary sight—silent, grass. grown streets of closed houses, shops, inns and places of worship. It was only comparatively recently that the buildings were razed and the materials of which they were composed sold and carried away. To-day the most tan. gible relic is found at the junction of the roads just outside the village—a quaint, square, plain building, over the porched entrance to which is the word “Bevlah,” and the date of erection, 1861. This is one of the little chapels built for the miners. No attempt has been made to preserve it from decay, and not so long ago the pedestrians could stroll in and find the sunlight streaming through the translucent windows and their borders of colored glass, making the interior grotesquely gay. The pulpit and pews then re- mained, and many of the cards affixed to the’ book-rests and inscribed with the sest-holders’ names were yet to be geen. Fish Deflected a Torpedo. A school of big fish swam up Noyac bay, near Sag Harbor, L. I, last week and investigated the antics of some bigger fish of a variety unknown to them, which were cutting straight lines from a torpedo boat to a bull's: eye target out in the bay. They learned that the strange-looking fish were not sharks and that they swam much faster than anything the big fish ever saw before. When they got in front of one of the queer fish it cut straight through them and left many mangled big fish to float ashore and tell the story. ‘This explained why one of the tor- pedoes was observed zigzagging curl- ously before it struck the target. A shark tried conclusions last summer with a test torpedo, with similar ef. fect on the shark.—N. Y. World, Bamous Collector ct Animate. _ W. T.

We treat the boys right The Popular Photogragher, Only Caters to First-class Trade. Our Pictures speak for Themselves WHIPPET IS SPEEDY FLEETEST RUNNER OF ALL THE QUADRUPEDS. Dog of Mixed Breed Had its Origin and Has Been Brought to Perfec tion in England—is Raced for the Amusement of Owners. Research into the origin of the whip- pet shows that it is a modern type of dog, and, considering how good it is in its way, it 1s a wonder that it is not more generally known and appreciat- ed. The word is not in Webster's, nor {s it to be found in many ency- clopedias. Dalziel failed to trace the etymology of the word, but fan- cled {t to be a provincial name expres- sive 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 be tween a spanfel and a greyhound, which could not produce the present type. John Taylor says: “In the shapes and forms of dogges; of all which there are but two sorts that are useful to man’s profits, which two are the mastiffe and the li tle curre, whippet or house-dogge; all the rest are for pleasure and recreation.” The modern whippet is a greyhound crossed with a small terrior, 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 stud book exists. But the dog has not been popular in shows, be- cause, being bred to race, its appear- ance {s of little consequence. There {s nothing cruel about dog racing, and, although it is not known among wealthy sportsmen, it Is a pop- ular pastime of a large class in the manufacturing districts of Mngland and this country. In England as many ‘4s 500 dogs are entered in one handi- tap and a thonsand pounds will change hands on the resuit. ‘The course {s usually 200 yards, and the races are run in heats in which three dogs compete. The winners ot these trial heats run against each other until there are but three left for the final. There are races for puppies, maiden races, handicaps and races with penalties and allowances. The dogs are held at the start and run past the judge to thelr 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 tn one minute and forty seconds, ts covering only seventeen and three fifths yards per second. The dog welghs about twenty pounds, and strides about fifteen feet; the average stride of a race horse fs twenty-one feet.—Town Topics. Fish’s Snout Like Saw.

Denver.—Joseph Church Helm of Denver was appointed Monday by Gov- ernor Buchtel as a member of the Su- |prem> Court of Colorado to succeed the late Justice Charles F, Caswell. No definite time has been set for the |taking of the oath of office, but this |ceremony will probably be fixed as | oon. as possible, owing to the impor- | tant matters which the court now has, |or soon will have, under consideration. In idcussing his appointment Mon- |day night, Judge Helm said: | “I was not an applicant for the place, | nor a candidate in any sense. I have | not seen the governor since Judge Cas- well’s death, and had no conversation with him until he called me this eyen- | ing by telephone and read the appoint- men’ to me.” | ,,loseph C. Helm was born in Chtenzo, | Minois, in 1848. He enlisted in the army in 1861 and served for four years, until the close of the war; three years in the Thirteenth United States infan. | try and one year in the Sixth infantry, First army corps. He served in the armies of the Mississippi, the Tennes- | see and the Potomac. He was in the bettles of Chickasaw Bayou, Arkansas | Post, Raymond and Champion Hills. | He was in the assault on Vicksburg, May 19th, and in the siege and capture | ot Vicksburg; in engagements at Jack- |son, Mississippi; Colliersville, Tennes- see, and in other engagements, He was a prisoner of war on Belle Isle. | Judge Helm obtained his education | after the close of the war at the State | University of Iowa. Between his colle- giate and law courses he had charge of | the schools at Van Buren and-at Little Rock, Arkansas, for three years. The degree of doctor of laws was conferred on him by the State University of lowa |in 1891. On graduation from the law | school at Iowa City he came to Colo- |rado in 1875. He was first city attor- |ney at Colorado Springs. He was first city attorney at Colorado Springs, He was a member of the House of Repre- sent’ tives in the First. General Assem- bly of the state of Colorado from El | Paso county, and was a member of the ' state Senate from the Tenth senatorial district in the Second general Assem- .|bly. He resigned from the state Sen- jatt and was elected to the district bench in the Fourth judicial district to |succeed Thomas M. Bowen. | Judge Helm was then elected to the supreme bench in the fall of 1882 %a | served for one full term of nine years. | He was re-elected for a second term in |tho fall of 1891 and entered upon his | second term in January, 1892. In the fall of 1892 he resigned from the su- |oreme bench, when more than elgat years of service were before him, to ac- |cept the nomination for governor en | the Republican ticket. He was defeated |by Davis H. Waite. If he had not re- |Signed from the supreme bench at that | time he doubtless would have been con- j tinued on the supreme bench during the remaining years of his life. Since his retirement in the fall of 1892 he has ,|been engaged in’ the practice of his | profession in the city of Denver. Throughout the forenoon Governor } | Buchtel listened to the claims of -up- porters of various candidates. | From the western slope delegations | appeared in support of Alfred R. <ing of Delta, who is a warm personal friend of the governor. Among Mr. King’s supporters were Postmaster Price of Delta, Representative Hoyt, Senator De Long, Chairman of the Mesa county Republican committee, and Postmaster Sullivan of Grand Junction. From the University of Denver law school appeared L. J. Kavanaugh, J. Paul Lee, E, W. Upton, Max Bulkley, Forrest Jeffries, M. A.

In two days it cleared away acres and acres of ancient, tum- ble-down buildings that in the ordi- nary course of events might have ob- structed the progress of the city for years. It awakened enterprise; it opened the way for new ideas and hew men; it aroused the city to the need for a general municipal house cleaning and it provided an opportu- nity to widen narrow strees, to !m prove useless docks and to do other things. True enough, a great many Baltimoreans were ruined by the fire ‘and their fate excites sympathy, but ‘a great many more in the two years ‘that have passed have profited.

Barton Hepburn, at the convention of the American Bankers' Association at Atlantic City, said of a certain argument: "But that argument fails to cheer. On the contrary, it fills us with gloom and foreboding. It is like the cry, intended to be reassuring, that came to the farmer across the turnip field. "A farmer, on a frosty autumn afternoon, went out into his turnip field and began to gather turnips. The early sun sank in the west, and as the bluish dusk came on, the farmer perceived, at the other end of the field, two men who, laying down a bag, began to dig with frantic haste. "The farmer watched the pair in some perplexity. What could they be doing? And he was just putting his hand to his cheek to shout and ask them their business, when one of them rose up and yelled, loudly and reassuringly: "Don't let us disturb you; we are only prigging a few ourselves." They who work as if the Master was ever near find Him always by them. He has no real riches who does not put the treasures of friendship first of all. In South Africa, where the thunderstorms are terrific, lightning often strikes ironstone beds, and blue flames — sometimes firing buildings—are alleged to play about such outertoops two or three hours after a storm. The practical limit of deep-sea diving, under the best conditions, is placed by Hill and Greenwood of the London hospital, at thirty-five to forty fathoms. A special study of eight years has shown these physiologists that the chief danger to the diver arises from the nitrogen absorbed by the blood and other body fluids, and that it is the absorbed nitrogen that produces the ill effects of rising too quickly. The breathlessness and oppression felt by the working diver are results of poisoning by carbonic acid, instead of direct effects of the great pressure. With special air pumps and extra precautions the experimenters descended thirty-five fathoms in a scotch loch, and, rising very slowly, were none the worse for the experience, but the oxygen required for regular working at such a depth is so great in amount that pneumonia and convulsions are commonly produced.

WAS S225 NOW S127 PAYMENT Women as Well as Men Are Made Miserable by Kidney and Bladder Trouble. Kidney trouble preys upon the mind, discourages and lessens ambition; the mind, ensambition; beauty, vigor and cheerfulness soon disappear when the kidneys are out of order or diseased. T Kidney trouble has become so prevalent that it is not uncommon for a child to be born afflicted with weak kidneys. If the child urinates too often, if the urine scalds the flesh, or if, when the child reaches an age when it should be able to control the passage, it is yet afflicted with bed-wetting, depend upon it, the cause of the difficulty is kidney trouble, and the first step should be towards the treatment of these important organs. This unpleasant trouble is due to a diseased condition of the kidneys and bladder and not to a habit as most people suppose. Women as well as men are made miserable with kidney and bladder trouble, and both need the same great remedy. The mild and the immediate effect of Swamp-Root is soon realized. It is sold in fifteen by druggists, in nity-cent and one-dollar size bottles. You may have a sample bottle by mail free, also a Home of Swamp-Root, pamphlet telling all about Swamp-Root, including many of the thousands of testimonial letters received from sufferers cured.

"Nut growing is a comparatively new industry in the south Atlantic and Gulf states, but it promises to develop into one of the most important in that section," said J. Z. Reid, a prosperous planter of Florida. "The most popular nut is the pecan, and its popularity is probably due to the development of systematic methods of grading it and cracking it with machinery operated by steam or electric power. This makes possible the marketing of the meats of the nut ready for use. "The demand is always much greater than the supply and many planters are now turning their attention to the nut raising industry. It is not uncommon for a tree to bear as high as 200 pounds of nuts in one season and most of these sell at from 60 to 70 cents a pound. It does not require much figuring to show that the pecan orchards which abound in some sections are paying investments." A. Girl's Giggle. Samuel Shadwell, a touchy old man living in an Indiana village, had a pane of glass broken in his house one night not long ago and next day he had a ten-year-old girl named Minnie Dayton arrested for it. $ ^{a} $ When the case was called in court he was asked how he knew it was Minnie. He admitted that he didn't see her, but heard her giggle. When asked if her giggle was different from that of any other girl he said it was, but he couldn't tell why. Neither could he imitate the giggle, and he lost his case. We all know what a girl's giggle is, but if any of us were asked to give an imitation of it we'd probably fall. A boy may titter, but when it comes to giggling only a girl can do that. WHAT WAS IT The Woman Feared? What a comfort to find it is not "the awful thing" feared, but only chronic indigestion, which proper food can relieve. A woman in Ohio says: "I was troubled for years with indigestion and chronic constipation. At times I would have such a gnawing in my stomach that I actually feared I had a—I dislike to write or even think of what I feared. "Seeing an account of Grape-Nuts I decided to try it. After a short time I was satisfied the trouble was not the awful thing I feared but was still bad enough. However, I was relieved of a bad case of dyspepsia by changing from improper food to Grape-Nuts. "Since that time my bowels have been as regular as a clock. I had also noticed before I began to eat Grape-Nuts that I was becoming forgetful of where I put little things about the house, which was very annoying. "But since the digestive organs have become strong from eating Grape-Nuts, my memory is good and my mind as clear as when I was young, and I am thankful."

Baldwin of Broadmoor, at Colorado Springs, has a new automobile that cost about $15,000. The Union Pacific has completed a large water tank at Platteville and will soon begin remodeling and enlarging the depot. The contract for the erection of the new city hall at Trinidad will be let January 1st. Additional ground for the site has been donated by Edward West. An Illinois association was started at Boulder a few days ago, and now the southerners are contemplating a Dixie club. The annual reunion of Union Colony pioneers will be held at Greeley December 7th. It is now thirty-seven years since the first settlers came. The entire switchboard capacity of the Florence telephone office is now occupied and the company is planning to expend $25,000 to enlarge the equipment. The ladies of Greeley gave a banquet to the members of the Greeley Chamber of Commerce on the night of November 22nd, at which plates were laid for 175 persons. Instructions have been given the police of Colorado City to rid the town of its opium dens and cocaine joints, and a vigorous campaign will be opened against such places. The citizens of Johnstown have voted unanimously for the issuance of $20,000 bonds for the building of a water works system. The water will be furnished by the Highline ditch. The town of Frederick in southwestern Weld county, has pctitioned to become incorporated. Firestone, Frederick and Dacomah are coal towns, within a mile of each other. In excavating for the new addition to the Denver postoffice a few days ago the workmen found an old flint lock musket. Pioneers say that the ground was once occupied by Colonel Chivington's cabin. Deputy Sheriff Robert Meldrum, who is charged with killing David Lambert at the Tom Boy mine, after the latter had faually wounded Thomas Sullivan, was given a preliminary hearing at Telluride Saturday and his bond fixed at $7,500. H. E. Bald of Denver, who has been drilling for artesian water near Ora Junta, five miles north of Florence, recently struck a big flow at a depth of 105 feet. The well will pump $14\%$ gallons a minute. Mr. Bald owns 120 acres which will be irrigated by it. The Arkansas river, which has been muddy for the last twelve years on account of placer operations near Granite, is clearer at present than for many years. The placer men have closed down the workings for the winter. The tailings were all dumped into the river. Work has begun on the new I. O. O. F. hall at Eaton, to cost $16,000. To erect the building a company was incorporated and bonds issued bearing 7 per cent, interest, payable semi-annually. Most of the bonds were taken by the lodge, which numbers 140 members. Thursday, November 21st, was "Clean-up Day" in Fruita, in pursuance of a proclamation by the mayor. Nearly all the citizens turned out, and by night the town was "as clean as a whistle" and the workers ready for the big banquet tendered them by the women of Fruita. Application has been received at the Pueblo land office from James H. Peabody and others of Canon City for a right of way over government lands for the Royal Gorge railway. According to the statement made, the railway will be eight and one-half miles in length to the top of the Royal gorge. Much confusion has been current throughout the state recently in regard to the use of the name of the State University. As it is supported by the commonwealth the institution remains properly the University of Colorado although it may well be called the State University. But the school never was or will be "Boulder University." The Colorado Agricultural College held during the year ending November 15, 1907, 113 Farmers' Institutes with a total attendance of 19,790 persons. Fifteen stops were made on the Santa Fe Institute train with an attendance of 1,705. Through the Farmers' Institutes and the Institute train the college force has met during the year 21,495 people. The annual exhibition of the Pike's Peak Poultry Association will be held at Colorado Springs, December 9th to 14th. Denver, Pueblo, Boulder, Fort Collins and Canon City fanclers have made an unusually large number of entries. W. F. Kendrick of Denver will show a large number of pheasants. Twenty-five silver cups and more than 100 special prizes have been offered. The magnificent bronze statue of Winfield Scott Stratton which is to be erected in his honor by the Stratton estate executors in Stratton park, Colorado Springs, has just been completed by Miss Nellie V. Walker, a Chicago sculptress. It is eight feet high and shows Mr. Stratton in a standing position. The cost of the statue is $5,000. It will rest on a granite pedestal seven feet high which cost $2,000. Three inter-state debates have been arranged this year by the University of Colorado. As is the usual custom they will all occur in the spring of the year. Only one of them will take place at the home of another institution—that with the University of Utah which was contested in Colorado last year. The other two debates which have been agreed upon with the Universities of Missouri and Kansas will both be held at the State University at Boulder. Sculptor Macmonnies has notified the monument committee of the Colorado Pioneer Society that in deference to the objections of a great number of the pioneers he will not surmount the monument with the figure of an Indian as he at first proposed. He asks the assistance of the pioneers in collecting any photographs of old-timers or pioneers, or hunters, or trappers, or costumes, saddles, bridles, gloves, belts, pistol cases or old guns—in fact, anything that might be characteristic of the pioneer—worn or used in the life of the time.

A Philadelphia congregation was called upon not long ago to choose a pastor. The last three ministers had been persona non grata with most of the parishioners; and before selecting another the congregation did some pretty hard thinking. There was one woman of experience whose voice carried particular weight. Preacher after preacher was invited to the pulpit for a trial sermon, and all, in the final analysis, were rejected by the female arbiter. At last there came along a possible incumbent who met with her approval. "The reason I am sure he will give satisfaction," she said, "is because he has the right kind of a wife for a minister. She allows him to rant around all he wants at home and doesn't sass back. I found out a long while ago—shortly after I was married myself, in fact—that a man who hasn't that privilege at home works off his spleen elsewhere. A ministervents it on his congregation. That was why we couldn't stand the last preacher. This one will be all right. We won't hear a peep out of him." And upon that unique recommendation the congregation really did give the man a call. According to last accounts both he and the congregation were doing well. The wife has not been heard from. BABY ITCHED TERRIBLY. Face and Neck Covered with Inflamed Skin—Doctors No Avail—Cured by Cuticura Remedies. "My baby's face and neck were covered with itching skin similar to eczema, and she suffered terribly for over a year. I took her to a number of doctors, and also to different colleges, to no avail. Then Cuticura Remedies were recommended to me by Miss G—I did not use it at first, as I had tried so many other remedies without any favorable results. At last I tried Cuticura Soap, Cuticura Ointment and Cuticura Resolvent Pills, and to my surprise noticed an improvement. After using three boxes of the Cuticura Ointment, together with the Soap and Pills, I am pleased to say she is altogether a different child and the picture of health. Mrs. A. C. Brestlin, 171 N.

Then she took a friend and went around to the millinery stores and "tried on" again, saying, of course, that her "hair looked perfectly terrible." Then she went home and thought and thought, and, finally, went back to the stores and "tried on" once more; and thought, and thought, and then bought a hat which is so grotesque and hideous that her relatives and friends blush with shame every time they see her wear it, and strangers stare at her, wondering what kind of courage it takes to wear such a looking hat.

Some Important Points to Keep In Mind and the Rest Is Easy—Be Careful Not to Let the Material Pucker. To cut a high standing collar without a pattern, or rather, to make your own pattern, take the exact measure of your neck, top and bottom, jot down on paper, then draw a pattern like the illustration given. If the collar fastens in the middle of the back, then the middle of the front is on a straight fold. One important point to remem- Straight of garde. Female. Standing collar draft ber is to have the collar as straight as possible; that is, not to have too curved edges. The more circular a collar is in cut, the thicker and larger the throat looks. See to it that the neck line of the waist is high, which in itself will help in having a straight DARKER BLOUSES ARE MODISH. Change in Style That Has Much to Recommend It. There are innovations in the province of the ready-made blouse this season. Heretofore it has been possible to buy white blouses of silk, satin, crepe, chiffon, or lace in almost any degree of elegance, but the dark blouse has usually been of the simplest sort, clinging to shirtwaist lines or departing from them with unsatisfactory results. The woman who wanted a truly smart dark blouse for wear with a trotting frock was obliged to have it made, and even then more often failed than not. For some time past the heavy durable chiffon known as chiffon cloth has been first favorite for the costume blouse, being sheer enough for comfort in our overheated buildings, offering possibilities of daintiness and dressiness, yet practical for all that. Dyed nets and laces also claimed attention as blouse materials, and after them came the soft silks and crepes. This fall blousemakers who supply the ready-made models have been inspired to offer to their trade blouses of chiffon cloth, thin voile, net and lace in dark colors—blues, browns, greens, black—made after the fashion of the lingerie blouses, without bones or fitted lining. The sheer dark stuff is laid over a white chiffon or mousseline, or in some instances a sheer India silk, and affords all the comfort of the unlined lingerie blouse while echoing the color of the costume and looking warmer than the blouse of batiste or mull. Many women have been obliged or have preferred to replace long silk gloves, not by a new pair, but by short ones, which they sew to the perfectly good arms of the old ones. This seam, however, makes an unsightly line, which immediately proclaims economy to all the world. One clever woman crocheted instead of sewing the parts together. The crocheted band was in a pretty pattern, and of silk to match the gloves in shade, was an ornament in place of blemish, and for months her friends haunted the stores in a vain, search for a counterpart. Not only does the crocheting improve the appearance of the old gloves, but it also lengthens them, and relieves that distressingly "short" feeling often present in inexpensive kinds. After a Shampoo. To obviate the difficulty found in making the hair stay in a pompadour after shampooing a hairdresser advises the drying of the front hair over a good-sized roll of tissue paper. This prevents all parting afterward, as the hair practically dries a la pompadour collar. The height of the collar, front and back, is next decided on, usually making it a half inch or more higher at the back. Mark the height for the front on the edge of the paper (which represents the fold of the material), then measure across the bottom edge the number of inches for half of the neck measure and make a dot. Measure straight up from this dot from one-half to one inch and put a mark there. Draw a line slightly curved from this mark to the bottom edge of the paper in the middle of the front. This will give the lower edge of the collar. Measure up in the middle of the back, from the height it is to be in the back, put a dot there, then measure from the dot, marking the height in the middle of the front, to the "height" point in the middle of the back and put a dot where the right size for the top of the collar comes. Connect the top and bottom in the middle back by a straight line, then draw a line (curving slightly, like the bottom one), connecting the two points at the top. This can be cut out and used as a pattern. This pattern does not allow for any lapping, so if the waist buttons half the width of the hem must be allowed beyond the middle of the back. Cut the cloth out exactly as the pattern was made, putting the middle of the front of the pattern on a straight fold of the goods, and allow sufficient for seams all around. Square off the corners, turn right side out, and use an ivory stiletto to get the corners well in shape. Holding the waist (wrong side) next to you, pin the middle of the waist to the middle of the collar, then pin the collar and waist together at the ends and baste carefully together, then stitch on the machine, after which the seam should be clipped nearly to the stitching at intervals all the way. The neck of the dress is quite curved and this clipping makes it set better; then the wrong side of the collar is clipped on the edge, basted and hemmed down. Care must be taken not to pucker the material at all. IN THE RICHEST MATERIALS. Afternoon and Reception Frocks Are Truly Gorgeous. For afternoon and reception frocks fur plays an important part, while Liberty satin and velvet are favorite fabrics. A very charming and characteristic coat of black caracul is sketched by our artist. It is worn with a skirt of soft purple Liberty 1 satin, and a purple chiffon and satin blouse. The waistcoat consists of pale tan cloth worked in shades of purple, peacock-blue and rose, while the revers and necklet are of ermine. A touch of embroidery finishes the sleeve under the cuff of ermine. Charming is the dark purple felt hat, with its thick ruching of a dark satin ribbon and waving Paradis plumes. Old Sideboards. A new use for the old Chippendale sidebards, that are now considered too small to serve in the capacity for which they were originally intended, is to convert them into dressing tables, and most attractive and serviceable dressers do they make, with their rows of small drawers at each side and the large space on top for the innumerable silver and ivory jars, boxes and flasks that are so necessary for milady's tolette. A glass top can be fitted for this dresser, if desired, and laid over a cover of fine filet lace and embroidered linen, or else placed directly upon the wood if it is of particularly handsome marking. Guimpes of Alencon Lace. Alencon lace, embroidered with silver or gold threads, is used for gulmpes and the mitten sleeves that finish nearly every dressy costume. It is pretty work to follow the design of lace with these 6ine threads of metal and silk. Easy of achievement, it brings the smart garniture within the means of shallow purses.

Frenchmen Urge Minister of War to Have Animals Attached to Ambulance Corps—Idea Is Not a New One. Since dogs have proved to be such able assistants to the Paris police corps why shouldn't they be trained to reinforce the hospital and ambulance service of the French army? The advantages of this innovation have been set forth at some length by Dr. Bichelonne and Capt. Tolet in a volume which has just been published. It is entitled the "Dog as an Aid to the Sanitary Corps." That dogs should be taught to seek out the wounded on the battlefield is no new idea. The experiment was tried with success at the time of the Boer war, and at the battle of ChaHo in the conflict in the far east three dogs sent out by the German Alliance discovered 23 soldiers who had been given up for lost. In 1890, by order of the German war minister, two dogs were added to the sanitary corps of one of the crack regiments. Since then clubs for the training of dogs in war time have been formed in Dresden, Cologne, Coburg, Aix-la-chapelle and Neuwied. Similar societies have been organized in Holland, Sweden and Italy. In fact all of the European countries have turned their attention to the subject at one time or other excent France. Dr. Bichelonne and Capt. Tolet urge the military authorities to repair this omission. There are many good breeds of dogs in France which would take easily to the military training. It is an undisputed fact, these authors say, that after an engagement there are many wounded and dying who are overlooked by the nurses and litter carriers. A case in point is quoted. At the battle of Rezonville-Gravelotte in 1870 two injured soldiers lay for three days in a ravine. The ground had been gone over many times by the ambulance service and yet they had not been found. In instances like this the usefulness of dogs as scouts is unquestioned. It is a wonder that European armies have not awakened long before this last decade to the importance of dogs as practical helpers in war time, the authors think. On the battlefield the role of these canine assistants would be very much the same as that of the St. Bernard dogs—and they have been rescuing snowbound travelers for several centuries. Outdoor Life for Dogs To insure health, both for the dog and for yourself, always accustom your dog to living out of doors. This may not do for the small, feeble and insignificant pet or lap dogs, but they are so useless that they come under a separate class. A good-sized substantial kennel or dog house should be made—one which is secure against the rain and storm and of a size to insure plenty of spare room. It is well to have it made with a movable roof, attached by hooks, so it can be readily and frequently cleaned. Before using it thoroughly whitewash it inside and then fill it up with clean, bright and sweet straw. At least once a month replace the straw, thoroughly sweeping out the box after removing and burning the old straw. A dog which is permitted to come into or stay in the house and hug the kitchen stove becomes tender and lazy and is apt to catch cold very readily, besides being a nuisance, getting in one's way and scratching off a few fleas now and then to keep things lively with the members of your household—Suburban Life. Two Bucks with One Bullet. Jay Bowers, of this city, has returned home from a month's hunting trip in Humboldt county, with a record of having shot two fine bucks with one bullet. One was a forked horn and the other a three-pointer. One of the animals weighed 134 pounds dressed. That two deer had been killed with one shot was not discovered until one of the animals was being dressed, when the bullet was found to have entered its right side, while Bowers asserted he had shot the animal on the left side. An investigation brought to light the second deer lying dead close to where the first had been found. Evidently they had been standing close together when Bowers shot.—San Francisco Call. Consider the Birds of the Air. An eminent ornithologist calls attention to the fact that a crane can travel through the air a thousand miles a day without flapping its wings, but by merely keeping them stretched and adjusted to the prevailing breeze. A hawk can stay in the air for days and weeks, moving with its wings motionless. It is the same with the gulls and numerous other winged creatures. In studying the science of aerostatics, consider the binds of the air. Precocity. "Tommy," said Mrs. Tucker, who was showing him through the geological department of the great museum, "these are called aerolites. They are supposed to be fragments of some planet that has been broken up. They comc within the attraction of our planet and fall to the earth." "O, I know what they are, all right," said Tommy. "They're the ballast the man in the moon has to throw out so keep himself up in the sky."
