XIV, PROSPER A Great Future for Prosperity it writes Liberian Counsel Movement to Colonize will not die Vice-president Dossen of Monrovia, Liberia, Africa, writes Chas. Hall Adams of Boston, the possibilities of prosperity in the land of our ancestors. The letter reads as follows: SENATE, REPUBLIC OF LIBERIA. Monrovia, January 24, 1908. HON. CHAS. HALL ADAMS: My Dear Mr. Adams—Your letter relating to the organization of The Liberian Development Association was received this morning and I have already shown it to several statesmen, including the President himself. I may state that any such movement would meet with a large measure of sympathy and encouragement, especially at this moment, and it is to be hoped that the idea will not die before maturing, as, sad to say, too many similar movements have. I heartily endorse your idea of planing the colony on the Cavalla frontier, and I may mention that already three settlements have been laid out which are practically unsettled, owing to the fact that we have had no accessions to Cape Palmas since they were surveyed, now some ten years ago. These settlements are about forty miles from the mouth of the Cavalla and about twenty miles from the port of Harper by land. I may mention that at the mouth of the river there is the port of River Cavalla, so that for shipping purposes there is a waterway from any of the three settlements straight to this port. There is plenty of land around and a heavy forest of mahogany and hardwoods. It is my firm opinion that if the colony should come to this section there would be open to them a great future for prosperity, agriculturally and commercially. The richness and fertility of the soil in this section is proverbial, so that nothing would be wanting in this relation. I may state that I have just introduced a bill in the Senate for the construction and equipment of a road from Harper to the Cavalla. It is not proposed to lay rail tracks in the first instance, but it will be constructed so as to accommodate such locomotives as steam-trolleys, traction-engines and such like; --- perhaps you can assist me with some advice and specifications of locomotives best suited for such roads, I shall await this information with much interest. There is a strong desire to draw nearer to America in every way. Yours very faithfully, JAMES J. DOSSEN. CHRISTIAN ACTIVITIES AND THE RACE CHRISTIAN ACTIVITIES AND THE RACE Every race has its spiritual distinctiveness. Do what you may with a race; miscegenate it as much as you may, and the predominate trate of the race will manifest itself above the chrysalis of miscegeneation and mimicry. A certain white theologian, in writing upon the spiritual activities of the races, places the Negro race on the topmost round of the ladder, say that he is of "a celestial genius." Another writer says that "only a people pradled in the third heaven where Paul entered and became dumbfounded at the unutterableness of the love of God as exemplified by the denizens of that upper region could be patient and long suffering enough to bear the horrors of slavery and so forget the wickedness of their hellish taskmasters as not to rise in judgment against him!" The truth of the above statement by sober men of the Caucasian family is worth the serious consideration of the best men of the white and the best men of the black races. In all of the wonderful comings-to-pass of the ages the representatives of the Ham section of humanity have been there to play their part. Despite what wicked men have tried to say in order to hide the truth, history lives to prove that in times of fierce aggression, whether in the battlefield, the church, or the state, the Negro race has been duly represented. We challenge any sane man to prove the negative. Ebed-melech, the Ethiopian, who waited on his kingly master and whose love for truth and compassion for DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, MARCH 28, 1908. oppressed hvianity sent down bread and water for Jeremiah in his miry dungeon, and afterwards rags for his armpits that he might be hoisted therefrom; Simon of Cyrene, who took the cross up Calvary's heights for the lacerated Son of Man; the Court Secretary to Candace, queen of the Ethiopian, who became interested in the 53rd chapter of Isaiah as he came to Jerusalem as representative of his country on the great occasion when it seems as if not Caesar Augustus, but the Lord Jehovah, had gathered together the nations of the earth to Jerusalem to witness the great glorification of His Humanity; these are a trinity of representatives of the capabilities of the Christian activities of our race in all ages of the world and under all circumstances. We have natural bodies which must be clothed and fed; but we have the nobler spiritual man within which reigns supreme and sends forth his mental edicts to the minute papillae of the body. The mind—call it soul, if you will—is master; the body, servant; and while we must emphasize the necessity for physical existence, let us not overstep the bounds of supremacy of physical law. The world, we freely admit, has lost sight of the fact of our present contention, namely, that the spiritual is supreme, and stands to the physical even as cause stands to effect. The world has erred and strayed like a lost sheep in this particular, and must be led gently, or otherwise, back to truth. Leadership to-day, so-called, puts the political aspect before the people in the same way as Aaron's golden calf was set up before Israel. All the selfishness, vanity, love of dominance, "master which shall be greater?"—the golden carriage of a lawless people—are collected and this Golden Calf presented to the people at the foot of the mountain by these Aarons of to-day, saying "These be thy gods, O Israel!" As in the days of the Horeb stratigraphic cataclysm, even so now the Lord thunders forth THOU SHALT NOT!—REMEMBER THAT THOU! As in the days of the communism of the Garden of Eden, even so now must that cherubimic sword be manipulated in every direction to keep the way of the tree of life. The tree of life is akin to what is best in the Christian life to strive for. We plead for the highest Christian activity in the church to-day. It is a falsehood of the deepest dye to imagine that the political arena is the sphere to operate for the upbuilding of Christian manhood and womanhood. Righteousness exalteth the nation; and while sin is rampant, political intrigue will also be rampant; and there is not a crevice in this vast republic today that is immune from this bewitching political witchcraft. The Christian has no right with politi- cal intrigue; he has no right to play with damnation. While the devil of political graft may be rampant and roaring without, the Christian should be locked in with the Master, busy with such upper chamber work as shall astond the whole congregated world gathered at their Jerusalem on our day of Pentecost! We do not say ignore the rights of citizenship; we do not say keep away from the ballot; but we do say to high and low, rich and poor of our church, aim at those inner graces of the "upper room," where Jesus enters bringing "Peace be unto you!" while He breathes His Holy Spirit upon us. We are to win upon a godly, consecrated life such as is the special genius of our race; and despite the fact that our religious sentiment is sneered at, and we are told that we should be more commercial and philosophic, and sociological and—of the world; the language of Jesus is, "All these things do the Gentiles seek after, but seek ye first the Kingdom of God and His righteousnes and all these things shall be added unto you."—Voice of Missions. PROF. CLEM AT BOULDER The most intellectual treat and really the most unique entertainment that has come to the people of Boulder in a long time, was furnished last Friday evening at the A M. E. church by Prof. Chas. D. Clem of Denver. Prof. Clem, who is a talented poet, gave a reading of a few of his poems, that was a decided success. He rendered some of his classical and more serious works, setting his audience to thinking; and a number of his humorist selections, provoking an uproar of laughter that was difficult to allay. The audience, not as large as the occasion demanded, charmed by the sweet voice and graceful manner of the poet, would gladly have listened to him hours longer, had time permitted. It is an undeniable fact that Mr. Clem is an honor to his race. He is a deep thinker, a philosopher and a devotee of science. The course of lectures which he has prepared on "The Mastery of Life" would doubtless more than repay one for availing himself of them. There is a movement now on foot to have Mr. Clem appear before an audience at one of the white churches in this city soon. Those who have heard him say "the sooner, the better." MRS. J. O. HOLMES. Baingridge, Ga., March 24.—The town of Lynn, six miles from here, was destroyed by a tornado early this morning. Two persons were killed, Jim Wright, colored, and a child of Maj. Lyle. A number of others were injured. In the Philipines the Negro soldiers captured the first prize in the athletic contest. Several weeks ago an old Negro medicine man was sent to the house of a white woman in Georgia to treat her for some disease. She began to scream as soon as he entered the house. Her neighbors lynched him immediately on the "same old charge" and afterwards 'twas learned that he was entirely innocent of wrong doing. Brookhaven, Miss.—Floyd Abraham has filed suit for $10,000 damages against the Negro Odd Fellows' lodge of Rogue Chitto, into which order Abraham was initiated a short time ago. The Negro claims he was so roughly handled during the initiation that he has been laid up for several days for repairs. Twenty six witnesses have been summoned. Hopkinsville, Ky., March 24. Thirty night riders invaded Cold Pond, Trigg county, last night, dragged a Negro in the employ of the tobacco association from his bed and, carrying him to the road, commanded him to run. When he failed to obey the riders fired at him. Two bullets penetrated the body and he was found today in a dying condition. No motive for the crime is known. A A. Coleman, manager of the famous Philadelphia, Pa., Cuban Giants Base Ball club, says that his team will tour the West and Middle West this season and is desirous of securing dates with teams in the Western strtes for games during May, June and July. The Giants have some of the greatest ball players in the country. Teams desiring dates address A. A. Coleman, 522 South 12th street, Philadelphia, Pa. According to reports from Memphis, Tenn., Lena Murrell, encharged with the murder of Lou Walker, has been in the County jail for a year and six months without being given a trial. She will be given a trial as soon as she is able to appear. Why she has not been given a trial before now something has been going on wrong. The fact is that she gave birth to a child just recently. This bears the truth of her long incarceration. The Oakland Sunshine says: The Twenty-fourth U. S Infantry which has been stationed at Leyte, Manila, for some time, arrived on the Transport Sheridan last Tuesday. As the Sheridan, on its way NO. 27. to the wharf, passed the United States cruiser, St. Louis, the army and navy exchanged a formal greeting, and as the ensigns were dipped the band of the Twenty-fourth played "The Star-Sprangled Banner," at the end of which there floated to the transport three cheers from the blue jackets on the cruiser. Oklahoma City, Okla., March 24. Judge Cotteral in the federal circuit court tonight denied the application of Oklahoma Negroes for a court order restraining the enforcement of the state Jim Crow law until its constitutionality and validity can be fully determined. In denying the application, Judge Cotteral said: "This decision merely means that the court in its present light does not believe that the rights of the parties will be infringed in awaiting further court argument. The complainants have a right to damages in equity in this court." MRS. GANS SUES FOR DIVORCE MRS. GANS SUES FOR DIVORCE Baltimore, Md.—Joe Gans, the light-weight champion, is in the divorce courts of this city again. Gans was not present in person, but his wife, Madge Gans, through Attorney George W. Cameron, filed a bill for partial divorce in Circuit court No 2. Judge Gorter signed an order giving the pugilist until March 19th to show why counsel fee of $200 and alimony of $50 a week should not be paid by Gans while trial is pending. Gans sued his wife for a divorce two years ago, and the bill was dismissed. In her suit his wife charges him with vicious conduct and infidelity. She says they were married in New York on April 8, 1900, coming to Baltimore and residing on Druid Hill avenue within the following year. She charges the fighter with traveling West with another woman, who was introduced by him as Mrs. Gans. Gans' wife says that his hotel, known as the Goldfield Hotel, at Lexington and Chestnut streets, is worth $25,000 and that he owns an automobile worth $5,000, diamonds and other valuables. His income according to her calculations, amounts to $25,000 a year. She recites further that it will be necessary for her to bring witnesses from San Francisco. A Chance for a Bargain.

AT AFTERNOON TEA FUNCTION IS CONSTANTLY GROW IN POPULARITY. English Innovation Has "Caught On" in America—One of the Most Pleasant Ways of Entertaining One's Friends. It is said that no English woman is happy without her tea, and that Americans are the great coffee drinkers, but the consumption of tea is constantly on the increase. An afternoon tea is a pleasant way of entertaining one's friends. An advantage is that a larger number of guests can be entertained than is usually possible at a dinner or luncheon. All teas are similar, as the form of extending this hospitality is much the same everywhere. Sometimes a collection of small tables are used, distributed here and there about one or two rooms, but as a rule one large table is most popular, and from this the tea and refreshments are served. This should be covered with a spotless white linen cloth, prettily decorated with flowers and silver; a tea service stands at one end and a chocolate set at the other, each presided over by some friend of the hostess. Sandwiches, cakes, bonbons and an ice are sufficient complements. A maid should be in attendance to remove soiled cups and plates. The brewing of tea, which is quickly accomplished, will never be successful with any but water actually and freshly boiled, and the teapot, which should be earthenware, must be hot. One, teaapoonful of Ceylon or a combination of English breakfast and Orange Pekoe is the proper quantity for each cup to be drawn. Enough boiling water to steep the leaves should be poured in and the pot allowed to stand for a few minutes. At the end of that time boiling water to the desired quantity is added and the cups filled at once. After this the teapot should be sent out and prepared for another brew. Never use the same leaves a second time. Tea with lemon juice is not a mere fad without foundation. It is said that when lemon juice is used in clear tea there is little possibility of harm resulting, since the citric acid of the fruit offsets the tannic acid of the tea, rendering it refreshing and wholesome. A great improvement to a cup of tea is a slice of pineapple which has been soaked in rum, and a small amount of masarchino and a bit of lemon added brings out the flavor of the pineapple. Also a teaspoonful of rum is in great favor. Baked Fillets of Fish. Remove the fillets from a three-pound haddock or cod, or from small flounders, and cut them into small uniform pieces. Put the trimmings in a saucepan; add a sliced onion, sprig of parsley, bit of bay leaf and six peppercorns. Cover with cold water, bring quickly to a boil, then simmer for an hour. Strain off the stock and reduce it to one cupful. Put the fish into a baking dish, sprinkle it with salt and a few drops of lemon juice and a quarter cupful of water. Bake for 15 minutes. While this is baking melt three level tablespoonfuls of butter, add two level tablespoonfuls flour. Stir until blended, then add the cup of fish stock and one-fourth cup of cream, and stir until thick and smooth; then add one tablespoon of lemon juice. Pour this over the fish and sprinkle with grated cheese. Bake until the cheese is melted. A Sewing Machine Secret. Take out the screw that holds the foot plate, remove it and you will be surprised at the amount of fluff accumulated there. Clean the little grooves and under the whole of the plate with a penkite. The needle must be taken out before the work has begun. You will often find this is the only cause for the machine's running hard. Peanut Soup. We are told by some of the modern authorities that peanuts are very nourishing, hence the following: Take two tablespoons of peanut butter and one tablespoon of browned flour (plain flour may be used, but browned is to be preferred); cream together and pour slowly over this one pint of boiling water, stir constantly to keep smooth. Season with salt and pepper. Add to this one pint of scalded milk. If too thick, add more hot water. Serve immediately with croutons or crackers. THE TIVOLI UNION BREWING CO. Fivoli DENVER, COLOR. W.

This company has a twelve-foot right of way on the county road between Denver and Greeley, paralleling the Union Pacific. Mr. Reaser said that once the road building is begun it will not be stopped until completed. Attitude of the Minority on President't Recommendations. Washington. — Representative John Sharp Williams (Miss.) as leader of the minority in the House of Representatives has issued to the press a written statement defining the attitude of the Democratic party in the House to ward legislation urged by President Roosevelt in his messages to Congress at the present session. The statement describes what Republican legislation the Democrats will support, what they will oppose and what concessions they demand on the part of the majority as the price of refraining from an organized filibuster throughout the remainder of the session. Mr. Williams says: "In so far as the things urged by the President are good things, I would like the country to know that all he has to do is to deliver twenty or twenty-five Republican House votes in favor of them. These conjoined with the solid Democratic votes will put them through." Mr. Williams notes the following measures as the ones which will "command virtually the solid Democratic vote within constitutional limits." To compel publication of campaign contributions. The prohibition of child labor in the District of Columbia and the territories. An employers' liability law, drawn to conform to the recent decisions of the Supreme Court. Federal liability to government employees. A law to prohibit the issuance of injunctions without notice to the party enjoined. Removal of the tariff on wood pulp and printing paper. Imposition of a federal charge for every water power right granted on a navigable stream. Those principles and measures urged by the President with which Mr. Williams as minority leader takes issue are enumerated as follows: The penalizing of the boycott. The right of the attorney general to dominate railroads when common carriers are thrown into the hands of a receiver. Modification of the Sherman antitrust law so as to permit within limitations the maintenance of trusts and the making of trade agreements between combinations of capital. Appointment of a commission to prepare data for revision of the tariff. Cruise Around the World Magdalena Bay.—The news that the fleet was to continue its cruise after reaching San Francisco and complete the circumnavigation of the globe by way of Honolulu, Sydney and Manila and the Suez canal, was received aboard the flagship Connecticut and was at once transmitted to the commanding officers of the various battleships. The news excited the greatest interest and was the most absorbing topic of conversation since the fleet started from Hampton Roads. Re.r Admiral Thomas, who will be the senior rear admiral after Admiral Evans retires, commented briefly upon the great trip ahead. "It can be easily accomplished by this fleet," he said. "In fact, it will be easier than the present cruise has been. While there are many long trips between stops, every one of our modern battleships is capable of carrying sufficient coal to make them, with some to spare. We shall have better coaling facilities at Honolulu, Samoa, Sydney and Cavite than we have had at the various places we have coaled on this trip. "As I glance over it, no difficulties of moment present themselves. It is, of course, a cruise of tremendous length, making the one we are now on seem small by comparison. It would likely be the last of December before we would reach New York, although that is merely a guess. It would depend upon the number and length of stops we would make." New Crop of Druggists. Denver.—The State Board of Pharmacy consisting of Messrs. A. W. Scott, Fort Collins; W. L. Shockey, Cripple Creek, and S. L.

Washington.—The Senate military affairs committee has authorized Senator Warren to report favorably Senator Guggenheim's bill appropriating $100,000 for the purchase of water rights and land so as to maintain an adequate water supply for Fort Logan. CANNON WINS IN ILLINOIS ENTHUSIASTICALLY ENDORSED FOR PRESIDENT BY REPUBLICAN CONVENTION. FOR TARIFF REVISION CONVENTION ENDORSES THE ADMINISTRATION OF PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT. Springfield, Ill.—The Republicans of Illinois Thursday enthusiastically endorsed Joseph G. Cannon as a candidate for the presidency, declared in favor of revision of the tariff and elected four delegates at large to the national convention. The men chosen are United States Senators Shelby M. Cullom and Albert J. Hopkins, Governor Charles S. Deneen and Mayor Fred A. Busse of Chicago. The convention also endorsed the administration of Governor Deneen and that of all other state officers. The candidacy of Governor Deneen to succeed himself was not mentioned, it being understood that only matters of national import were to come before the convention. For the last two days it had been confidently asserted by the platform builders that the resolution would favor tariff "adjustment" instead of "revision," it being the idea that "revision" is generally accepted as meaning reduction, and "adjustment" might mean the raising of some schedules as well as the lowering of others. In the last moment, however, Congressman Henry S. Boutell arrived from Washington, where he had consulted with Speaker Cannon and other Republican leaders, and the plank adopted today was the result. The Cannon men had things entirely their own way, and there was not a whisper of opposition throughout the day. All motions were passed unanimously and without argument, and the applause that greeted the reading of the plank indorsing the candidacy of the speaker was great and enthusiastic. Following is the tariff plank: "It is now apparent that in order to maintain the scientific accuracy of the tariff, remove inequalities and prevent injustice, some new schedules must be added to the law, some of the present rates must be lowered, while some must be repealed altogether. The very success of the present tariff demonstrates the wisdom of revising it to conform to the improved conditions which it has produced. We believe that the people of the United States will profit by a new tariff, but it must be a Republican tariff, a protective tariff, a tariff which recognizes in all its parts the difference between American and foreign wages, the difference between the high scale of living of American wage earners and the scale of living imposed by insufficient wages upon foreign workmen. We therefore recommend to our delegates to the Republican national convention that they urge upon the convention the wisdom of declaring for a revision of the tariff to be made at the next session of Congress, or at a special of the Sixty-first Congress to be convened immediately after the inauguration of the next President, March 4, 1909. "We believe that our tariff should contain a provision for minimum and maximum rates—the minimum rates giving full protection, the maximum rates to be invoked for retaliating upon foreign countries that discriminate against American products. We believe that two main ideas should pervade all the provisions of the tariff: "First—That the protective principle so prevails in all the schedules that the American farmers, workmen and producers shall be given the first call on the home market; and, second, that no illegal or unjust combination, trust or monopoly shall find encouragement or shelter in any of its provisions. "To the end that the revision of the tariff may be accomplished with the greatest possible gain and the least possible loss, we suggest to our senators and representatives in Congress that they seek to secure at once the passage in their respective houses of resolutions directing the proper committees to proceed immediately to collect the preliminary information necessary for a revision of the tariff, that when the work is entered upon all parties in interest may be heard and the law framed, discussed and passed without delay and without any disturbance of the financial and industrial interests of the country. Crusade Hits Market Street. Denver. — The Republican Friday morning says: The way of the transgressor is hard — in political campaigns. By order of the district attorney, who had some 100 warrants sworn out before a justice of the peace, the women in the "red light" district, who have been living in the one-story shacks facing on the streets, moved away during yesterday morning and last night. The males who live off the earnings of fallen women and the men who profit through renting and subrenting the houses, had disappeared from twelve to twenty-four hours before. Four or five of the parasites were caught and lodged in jail on charges of vagrancy. The crushers from the district attorney's office were successful in the main undertaking of ridding the district of this class of inmates. A few of them left the city until the "storm" had passed, but most took rooms in other parts of town. Although the crusade originated in the political game of whether the police department might not gain advantage over the district attorney's office at the coming election, there is reason to believe that the worst feature of Market street will be obliterated as a result.

PHONE MAIN 6123 Denver, Colo Denver, CO SECRETARY TAFT SAYS THEY ARE STILL EXTREMELY FRIENDLY. JAPAN BUSY AT HOME UNITED STATES AS A GREAT ASI ATIC POWER NEEDS AN ADEQUATE NAVY. Trenton, N. J.—Secretary of War Taft and Baron Takahira, Japanese ambassador to the United States, spoke before the chamber of commerce Monday night. A special reception to the distinguished visitors took place in the assembly chamber in the state house at 7 o'clock. The two houses were in session and the galleries and lobbies were crowded with spectators. Baron Takahira spoke only briefly. At the conclusion of the exercises at the state house the visitors were driven to the Masonic Temple, where the chamber of commerce banquet took place. There were over 450 guests seated at the tables in the hall, which was profusely decorated with American and Japanese flags, Baron Takahira was roundly applauded and then greeted with the Chautauqua salute. The ambassador told his auditors something about the trade relations between Japan and the United States and the world and put in a good word for the coming international exposition at Tokio in 1912. Secretary Taft spoke on "The National Outlook." He said: "It is a great pleasure to every one in the government in the administration at Washington that Baron Takahira has returned as ambassador. The relations between Japan and the United States during the last two years have much occupied the headlines of sensational newspapers of this country and Europe. "A number of the European press were determined that there should be war between United States and Japan, even if both parties were determinedly opposed to it. The unfortunate disturbances at San Francisco and the diplomatic controversies that arose were made the occasion for the circulation of the most distressing rumors which were from time to time repeated. "It was found, however, that nothing had occurred at San Francisco which it was not within the power of the government to settle by ordinary diplomatic methods. The question of immigration seems quite within the power of the two governments without legislation on either side, to bring to a satisfactory adjustment. "Then these same scribes and prophets of evil made themselves hoarse with their shouts about the sending of the fleet of battleships to the Pacific. Alas for the reputation of these prophets of evil; no sooner had the fleet reached our western shores upon the Pacific than the government of Japan sent a most cordial invitation, couched in the friendliest terms, asking that our fleet visit the ports of Japan. This invitation the government has accepted in the same cordial tone, because it realizes the sincerity of the hospitality which is offered. "It has been my good fortune to visit Japan for short trips four times and each time I have had the honor of being presented to his imperial majesty the Emperor, and each time I have had an excellent opportunity to learn the friendly attitude of the government of Japan toward the United States. "The Japanese have their energies directed toward the civilization and settlement and progress of Korea, which has come under their protection and control; of the Liatung peninsula, of which they now have a lease from the Chinese government, and of Formosa, which they took over from China after the Chinese war. "The uplifting of these countries and their peoples presents problems sufficient to test the highest statesmanship of the leading men of Japan and furnishes every reason for saying that they have no desire for such a purposeless task as a war with the United States. "But Japan is manifesting the greatest enterprise in the organization of steamship lines and the government assistance of them so that in a reasonably short time much of the Chinese trade is likely to be done between the United States and China and between other countries and China in Japan bottoms. "China, with her 400,000,000 citizens, is in a state of transition. With her her civilization-thousands of years old she moves more slowly in the direction of modern progress than other nations, but she is steadily moving. "We are today an Asiatic power. We exercise sovereignty over an archipelago of 140,000 square miles, with a population of 8,000,000 people. We have undertaken a system of general and political education which we hope in the course of one or two generations may prepare them to maintain an independent government free from guidance of ours, ifather people so desire." Secretary Taft closed by urging the importance of maintaining a navy and army "commensurate with our resources, with our coast line, with the extent of our country and population." Church Floor Gives Way. Denver—An Evans, Colorado, dispatch Tuesday night says: So large a crowd gathered at the Reformed Presbyterian church in Evans tonight to listen to Governor Buchtel's address on temperance, under the auspices of the Anti-Saloon League, that two sills in the floor of the church gave way, cracking like a pistol and throwing the crowd into a panic. People in the front of the church rushed to the rear, and those in the back rushed forward, but Governor Buchtel and the cooler heads among the crowd prevented serious accidents. The governor quieted the people so effectively that not one left the building. CONGRESSMAN COOK TALKS. Urges His Bill Placing Duty on Manganese Ore. Washington. — Representative Cook made his first formal speech in the House Tuesday, his subject being his bill to place a duty on shipments into the United States of manganese iron ore. Although the address was upon an economic subject, it was listened to with attention by the House and Mr. Cook was the recipient of many congratulations on the manner in which he handled the question at issue. Mr. Cook said: "The Republican party in its national platform for the past forty-five years has proclaimed the doctrine of the protective tariff principle for American labor and capital, against the pauper labor and cunning capital of foreign monarchy. "From the great Morrill tariff bill to the Dingley bill, in a measure the House of Representatives and the Senate of the United States have protected the American miner and manufacturer of raw material of iron, ore, steel, coal, coke, gold, copper, lead, zinc, lumber and a thousand of other things, originally produced in the United States. "That Congress should discriminate against manganese ore, that must be used in the manufacture of steel rails and all other steel structural formations, and put it on the free list, is a glaring inconsistency and smacks strongly of special legislation for special manufacturers. "If iron ore is favored by a high protective tax and 35,000,000 tons were mined and shipped in the United States during the year of 1907, to exclude foreign competition, it is certainly reasonable that 40 cents, or even $1 per ton as a duty passed by the Senate, should be placed on the peculiar metal manganese that is absolutely necessary to make a durable and perfect steel rail, as well as all other manufactured steel products, owing to the fact that manganese gives iron a greater tensile strength, elasticity and elongation. "Before manganese ore was placed on the free list by the conferences of the House, I was the largest shipper of manganese ore in the United States; have shipped from Leadville, Colorado, more than 125,000 tons of manganese ore for steel manufacturing purposes, mined by American labor, the wage being $3 per day for miners, and $4 per day for engineers and pumpmen, precisely the same wage as paid by mine operators in Colorado for mining gold, silver, lead and copper-bearing ores, in competition with a wage of 60 to 75 cents per day, paid for mining manganese ore in Russia, Chill, Brazil, Japan and Cuba, to the absolute injury of intelligent American labor. From these countries the supply is now coming in ballast to the United States and used by all the steel mills in our country except the Colorado Fuel & Iron Company of Pueblo, Colorado, (the only steel works west of Chicago) and since the establishment of the Colorado Steel works in 1880, have used more than 500,000 tons of Leadville manganese ore for making splegeleisen, the mixture with pig iron for reasons hereinbefore stated, mixed in coverting furnaces producing steel ingots from which merchantable steel is rolled into shape. "Millions of tons of iron (hematite) ore in the Mesaba, Hoegebec and Menominee ranges of Michigan and Minnesota are mined in open cuts with steam shovels and placed on cars at cost of $26\frac{1}{4}$ cents per ton; this ore is protected by duty as it should be. "Now, Mr. Speaker, any practical chemist or metallurgist in the United States will say manganese does not exist in its pure state in any part of the world, where deposits are known to exist, but metallic iron is found invariably in combination with the manganese, which is manganiferous iron ore. The 207,068 tons of manganiferous iron ore that was received for the fiscal year, ending June 30, 1907, should have paid a duty to the government of 40 cents per ton, or the sum of $82,000 for the year, for the good and sufficient reason each and every ton of this foreign ore was manganiferous iron ore, but a departmental ruling by the assistant secretary of the treasury, arrogated within himself the powers only granted under the law to the Congress of the United States, the Treasury Department has, and still maintains this manifestly unfair ruling, resulting in great loss of revenue to the government. "In the presentation of these indisputable facts of the great injustice by the conferees of the House of the Fifty-fifth session of Congress, favorable consideration and co-operation is earnestly requested to restore the duty on manganese ore, thereby carrying out the protective principles and pledges of the Republican party, in the interests of American capital and labor." Railroad Wins Rate Case. Washington.—The case of the interstate commerce commission versus the Chicago Great Western Railway Company, known as the meat rate case and involving the right of the company to reduce the freight rate on live stock products without making a similar reduction in the rate on livestock itself, was decided by the Suprem Court of the United States Monday in favor of the railroad company. The suit was instituted in the interest of the city of Chicago, it being alleged that the change had worked incalculable hardship to Chicago by diverting shipments of livestock from that city to St. Paul and to Missouri River points. The interstate commerce commission found that the change of the rate on one article without a corresponding change on the other was unlawful, but the courts refused to uphold that view. Orchard to Be at Telluride Denver.—An Ouray dispatch says: Harry Orchard, under sentence of death in Idaho as the self-confessed murderer of Governor Steunenburg, will appear as the chief prosecuting witness against Steve Adams at Telluride in May, where Adams is to be tried in connection with the mysterious disappearance of a man named Barney during the riots of 1901 and 1902. To bring Orchard here as a witness it will be necessary for the Idaho board of pardons to commute his sentence of death to one of life imprisonment, and word has been received from reliable sources that such action will be taken in due time.

Denver umbine" ZANG'S v Table Beer masked, after the style of that chivalrous, reconstruction-time organization known as the Klu Klux, ride about communities and counties on horseback and set fire to barns containing great tobacco crops, or remove and destroy the gathered or growing crops, or commit other depredations against the independent industry as conditions may suggest. In one town the Negro employes of independent tobacco growers were ordered to leave the town, and upon failure to do so, their houses were riddled with bullets by a force of night riders, and several of them, regardless of age or sex, were ruthlessly shot to death. The state authorities seem entirely unable to cope with the situation, and no move made by the officers of the law seems to be at all forceful or effective, and the raids continue with desperate, law-defying persistence. Of all the states of the Union, Kentucky has the worse reputation for the defiance of law and of civilized custom. But her habits are characteristic of the entire South. The remark of the "Louisville Post" that "these raiders are sinking Kentucky to the level of Colorado or of Portugal, where all laws are silent and the rifle is the one guardian of the domestic hearth," is therefore humorous, in spite of the grimness of the comparison. If there was a state government in Kentucky determined to enforce the law and preserve order, and a state militia as ready to march against riotous white outlaws as against helpless Negroes seeking the common rights of life, the things which make that commonwealth notorious would be short-lived and would soon become impossible. The night riders have their counterparts and imitators in all of the Southern states and reflect the standards of the white man's civilization throughout that section. The cowardice of the night-riding terrorist, who organizes and masks and rides and destroys and kills in order to overcome personal liberty, has no equal in outlawry in the United States. Dyspeptic Pie Eaters As Great a Menace to Society as the Men Who Drink By THEODORE SUTRO, President New York Branch National German-American Alliance. It is impossible to interdict traffic in mince pies and ice water and a hundred other things a person may commit an excess about. It is not only in the drinking of alcoholic liquors that they commit excesses; many other things that cannot possibly be restrained are abused. If a man is so feeble-minded that he cannot resist the excessive drinking of liquor, and no education from childhood up would change his condition, that man ought to be confined until he can be cured. If a man is a mental pervert, if he does the thing with malice prepense, then arrest that man. Make drunkenness a crime. That is the true remedy for the "liquor evil." Prohibition is not going to break it up. I am not in favor of a free flow of alcoholic liquor without limitation. There certainly ought to be some restrictions on it. But sumptuary laws only cause breaches of the peace. I claim to be a law-abiding citizen, and I do not like to break the law. At the same time there must be in the breast of every law-abiding citizen a conflict between these two principles. Here is a law, and I do not like to disobey the law, but here is an unjust law passed, and I think I ought to break it anyway, and that causes discontent. Prohibition causes more breaches of the peace on account of this discontent than if the law allowed the use, say, of beer and wine under a very low license, and the use of strong, distilled liquors, which confuse the system and intoxicate the brain, under only a high license. This is the principle I think would be proper to adopt in this country. Why not punish the man that sells another man the liquor that makes him drunk? As reasonably punish the man who enables another to eat so much mince pie that he gets dyspepsia, and commits crime. Honest Criticism Not Wanted By HARVEY WHIPPLE. When a man writes a book, paints a picture, builds a skyscraper, or constructs a railroad, he throws out his chest, perhaps, and makes a bid to his fellows. It may be tacitly, or oracularly, but he says: "Come, see what I have done. How do you like it?" He may be a self-centered man and taciturn. While he was working he may have disdained the crowd. He may have been filled with the desire to please himself, and himself alone. But now, the thing is done. The brain sweat is over. There is an abatement of the mere passion of work, of creation. He drops his tools and turns to the crowd, and it is: "Here, now, look, all you. How is it?" He thinks he wants honest criticism, but he doesn't. He wants to be reassured. He wants the crowd to see and appreciate, and exclaim like the campaign audience: "He's all right!" Perhaps the first critic says to the man who writes a book: "It doesn't ring true." The author thinks to himself: "There is something of truth lacking in this critic, because he does not see truth as I have seen it." The critic says to the man who paints a picture: "Nature never made a sky like that," and the painter's lip curls and he says within himself: "I have caught nature in a mood which my critic has missed." The man who erects the skyscraper and the engineer who lays out the railroad make quick reply when their judgment in some detail of engineering is questioned. It seems that in most instances we are prone to criticise the critics who come at us adversely. It is merely an application of that first law of nature, self-preservation. There are exceptions, of course. Most of us have a few friends at whose show of front we do not bristle up. But these are instances of sympathy—which is understanding. Yet even while we do not like the blunt, unsympathetic criticisms, we profit by them. If not directly, then by indirection, they serve a modieum of good, even if they fail to alter our own attitude toward life and work, but merely serve to add strength to our particular viewpoint and opinion. In the blunt speech and brusque manners and elbow-rubs of everyday there is building material for good. Criticism may be direct in influence or attain a worthy end through antithesis. Even if criticism harass us it may be useful in revealing the other fellow's viewpoint, and it isn't necessary for us to pretend to relish the critic's thrusts in order to receive them.

WE often wonder why a Negro pugilist will give a white pugilist three-fourths of the club purse for the privilege of fighting him. The odds seem altogether unsportsmanlike and out of all reason. But perhaps the almost certain pleasure of giving the sneaking color-dodger a good sound lambasting compensates for the embarrassment of having to pay double the price for the recognition of merit, even in the arena of the pug uglies. Come home, Mr. Burns, and meet Mr. Johnsning! THE STOIC AND THE NEGRO. REPRESSION of one's feelings under circumstances of great adversity and suffering; sullen indifference to trials and afflictions, even to impending death; these are the characteristics of what men call the Stoic. They indicate that a man is satisfied within himself with his own course and the fate that has followed it, and that, at least, for the sake of the principle he has followed, he will let no man know that he is suffering. The Negro is no Stoie. He does not believe in suffering in silence. As a rule, if anything hurts him, he believes in giving expression to his pain. He cries out and lets the world know that things are going wrong with the black man. But the Negro is the most easily pacified mortal in the world. He is the quickest to forget his ills and to regain his natural, happy composure after relief. His is the lightest-hearted, the most patient and hopeful people that the world has ever known. He resists suffering longer, enjoys life and freedom more, and knows how to be happier than any other branch of the human family. And this indicates great possibilities for the Negro. The Stoie may be grim and brave, but with all his admirable and defiant hardihood, he goes down before the advance guard of overwhelming opposition. The American Indian is proverbially stoical, but he has been scattered like chaff before the white man's progressive, unrelenting forms of civilization. Intellect alone, backed by only ordinary numerical strength has made the white race the earth's dominant race, but, strangely enough, the most backward and careless of races mentally and socially, and the one seemingly farthest removed from the white man's standards of moral and material progression, has best resisted the all-conquering onslaughts of the white man's power. The Negro suffers and yields to the shock of the onslaught, but with unmatched patience, endurance and content, assimilates the forms, characteristics and activities of the on-marching conqueror, absorbs his genius and rises, with all his superior fund of patience, light-heartedness and dauntless faith in the ultimate of life. It is more than a hopeful sign. It is a positive promise of the future well-being of the black people of the earth. It is a long look ahead, but by that sign of Nature by which it is told that all things which endure must surely progress, and by which greatest hopes and faiths are justified, we can see a time coming when the black man will not be the scum of the earth or the last of creation. SHOULD THEY RE-ENLIST? ACCOMPANYING the final report of the committee on military affairs upon the investigation of the discharge of colored troops by the President, because of the Brownsville incident, was a recommendation from President Roosevelt that a law be passed giving the members of the discharged body of troops one year, in which time they might apply individually for re-enlistment in the army, subject to such rules of investigation as would satisfy the President that the applicant was in no manner responsible for the affair at Brownsville and had not withheld his testimony in the subsequent trials and investigations. The President's recommendation was a part of a message to the Senate, in which he claimed that the result of the committee's investigation was a vindication of his course in discharging the troops. Nevertheless, a recommendation that a law be passed allowing reenlistment to these troops amounts to a confession that injustice was done some of the soldiers, to say the least. Now, if the President's order was in any way unjust, how can he consistently claim its vindication? If it was unjust why did he persist in its enforcement? After nearly two years of continuous investigation in which all the power of the government has been employed to ferret the matter out, not a single one of the discharged soldiers has been proven guilty of the aets charged against them. But the President wants the conviction against them to stand, while he would yet return to them the right to enlist under his further scrutiny. We don't know how badly these men want to be soldiers in the United States army. We don't know how willing they are to become door-mats, upon which those who have trampled upon them and crushed out their honor may wipe the blood from their ruthless feet. But we will be surprised if any of the discharged men re-enlist under the provisions of such a special law. To the Colorado Statesman the executive recommendation has the appearance of a paltry political sop, intended for effect upon present political conditions. It were better not made at all. If the men were guilty of any offense, let them stay out of the army. If innocent men were discharged under the stain of guilt and dishonor, it is the President's duty to remove that stain without the further supplication and humiliation of the men so flagrantly wronged, for it is these innocent black soldiers, and not the President, who deserve vindication. THE NIGHT RIDERS THE attention of the Nation is being focused on a new variety of Kentucky bravery here of late, the same being an outgrowth of the tobacco war being waged in that state between certain organizations of planters and those who prefer to remain independent of such organizations. Personal choice in the conduct of a private industry is being denied citizens of that state by the planters' unions, much in the same manner that labor unions sometimes seek to compel all merchants and dealers to follow their dictates, and the most unusual and unlawful destructive force is being employed to compel compliance with the mandates of these unions. Bands of night raiders, secretly organized and gathered, armed and In my opinion there has been almost as much crime committed from eating mince pie and mixing ice water with it as through the use of whisky. Why then should we not punish the man who sells mince pies, of which one man may eat moderately and healthfully, while another may eat them immoderately, so that in the pangs of dyspepsia he loses self-control and commits crimes of violence. The American people drink reservoirs of ice water. The habit is a dangerous one. A. B. B.

THE LIQUOR QUESTION. If it is thought for a minute by the antis that the masses of the people are not carefully considering both sides of the question they are greatly mistaken. This is a question that in itself is far reaching. It involves many thousands of wage earners to say nothing about the capital that is invested in the business. Let the low and vicious places be refused licens and the ill conducted ones closed. To this there would be little "if any' opposition. The voters should be guided by justice, using a little common sense. IN MEMORY Of Walter B. Snowden, who died January 6, 1908. Softly at night the stars are gleaming, Upon a quiet grave, Where he sleepeth without dreaming, One we loved but could not save. Just few months ago we laid him to rest, With his cold hands upon his breast In silent he suffered in patient he bore Until God called him home to suffer no more. Yes Walter is gone but not forgotten, Never shall his memory fade. Sweetest thought shall ever linger Around the grave where he was laid. MAMA AND BROTHER. Hall for Rent.

Bobbinet is a material that can be nicely used for a bedroom set. The bedspread and bolster case, dresser cover and wash stand cover and numerous little fancy-work articles can be made with this durable, washable material. Some pretty designs in corner pieces can be worked with very coarse cotton floss. Either white or a color may be used. The bedspread should have a flounce, edged with narrow lace, and the bolster or pillow shams must be lace edged. Place it over a pink silkalline cover. Beautiful bedspreads can be made with lace curtains if four pieces can be found to match and pointed with strips of bobbinet 16 inches wide. One curtain, if doubled, will make a neat bolster cover. The bolster being much neater than pillows, it can be made with muslin and filled with fine shavings. False pillow shams can be made on a light wooden frame, using thin pieces of wood like those placed in the bottom of window curtains. A square of muslin is tacked very tight to one side, then it is lightly padded with shavings or cotton, and a cover drawn over the top, and either glued or tacked in place. These false shams will not weigh over a pound apiece and a bed looks much neater if the lace shams have a substantial backing. These sell for two dollars in the furniture store, but any woman could make a pair at home. WHY WOMEN SEEK TITLE. Seions of nobility make two appeals to the American woman. As a rule, they understand better than the American man the outward accomplishments of social life, for social life in Europe, especially among the upper classes, is more like an exclusive profession. But the stronger force is the social prestige which attends family and title. The tremendous difference between high and low classes, attached to which is an unquestioning deference from low to high, as flattering as it is strange to American experience, is fascinating to a woman who has once been across to see it.—Philadelphia Public Ledger. A correspondent of a Philadelphia paper complains that automobiles injure the roads. But the owner of an automobile will probably declare that honors are even, for only when the bills come in is it possible to estimate what injury many bumpy roads inflict upon the sensitive automobile. It would seem as if the Britons ought to be able to get along with no more than one drinking saloon to each 400 of the population in the great centers. The proportion of one to each 1,000 of the population of Boston, says the Boston Herald, is quite sufficient to quench the thirst for alcoholic stimulants here. Non-secret clubs, to which all the students are eligible, have been proposed in Chicago as a substitute for the secret fraternities in the high schools. If the pupils have time for such distractions, the open club is immeasurably superior to the secret organization. The public school teachers of New York are insistent on the reinstatement of corporal punishment for flagrant offenders. After trying the new systems of moral suasion they have come to the conclusion that, though rather old-fashioned in his philosophy, Solomon knew what he was talking about. Copyright, 1908, by L.

There is a rich man in a southern city who makes the undeserving poor his peculiar care, says the Independent. His methods in dealing with what he calls a fresh sinner are unique, and he regards them as scientific from the heavenly point of view. He insists upon a full catalogue of the victim's transgressions. He claims that this is done on the theory that a physician first administers an emetic in case of poisoning. Then if the patient is an utterly lost and abandoned woman he frequently takes her home with him, where she is quartered in the guest chamber and treated by the family as the welcome guest whose presence there is in no ways remarkable. For our scientist claims that it is the loss of the sacred home consciousness in such women which casts them so far down, and his purpose is to restore the same by his own fireside, which is particularly attractive in that he has a wife and many young children. Nothing is said to the forlorn one to remind her of her shame; she is simply left to get well, as the scientist expresses it. And it is astonishing how many of them do get well. His boast is that he has married his girls happily all over the country, for he is an enthusiastic believer in wedlock. Upon a recent visit to a distant city he remarked to the editor: "I married one of my girls off in this town; couple doing well; moving in the best society. Good as the rest, too, now. But it's a secret; if society knew it would abolish her." He winked in conclusion, at the expense of society. He cannot make a speech, but he is an eloquent sputterer; and although his manner to ministers is wittily deferential, he has been known to ruin a preacher's meeting and make the victims of his burning incoherence look like rows of paper dolls blown before the breath of a living man disciple. Romans in Scotland. Recent discoveries in the neighborhood of Edinburgh and as far north as the confines of Perth and Inverness shires are exciting among Scotchmen an unprecedented interest in the Roman occupation. Accumulating evidence that it took a far more solid hold than is currently supposed has stimulated the exertions of the Scottish antiquaries and resulted in an appeal for funds to which public generosity is not slow in responding. Interest is guided and stimulated by what may truly be called the Roman museum, now open to inspection in the rooms of the antiquaries, on the ground floor of the national portrait gallery in Edinburgh. There may be seen the surprisingly rich bronze helmet and the remarkably beautiful iron tilting helmet, or mask, recently unearthed at Newstead, being within a mile of Melrose Abbey. If the trips of tourists were not such cut-and-dried affairs, visitors to Abbotsford, Dryburgh and Melrose might easily include in their purview the Roman camp and Roman baths which James Curle has there brought to light—the bath is now in process of excavation. Besides the helmets, Mr. Curle has found vases in bronze, helmets, swords and axes, which, along with plentiful shards of Samian and other ware, suggest that Newstead was a very solid and firmly rooted outpost. Black Bear a Thief The black bear of the north is a roving animal, continually shifting from one place to another at all seasons except the few months in which he curls up and lies dormant like the woodchuck. The bear seems instinctively to know where to go to find blackberries, beech nuts, succulent roots and other food in which it delights. The bear roots up the ground under beech trees, much as a hog would, in search for beech nuts. The bear discovers where the chipmunks and squirrels have stored nuts in the ground for the winter supply and robs their storehouse. We are told that bears break into the pigpens of pioneers, carrying off pigs. I have never known of such attacks, but I have known them to attack beehives with impunity for the honey which they relish. I have heard of bears attracted to telegraph poles by the humming of the wires, thinking that they were in the vicinity of a beehive.—Forest and Stream. Millionaire Weds Shepherdess. Herr Theodore Schlumberger, a German millionaire deputy, has just been married to a young and beautiful shepherdess whom he met tending her flocks near Basle. After a short acquaintance he proposed. His son by his first marriage intervened, and offered the shepherdess $95,000 to break the engagement, but she refused. His fortune is estimated at $19,000,000. The father of the bride is a postman. Documentary Evidence. Her Mother—I should rather you would not go sailing with that young man. Clara; I don't believe he knows a thing about a sailboat. Clara—Oh, but he does, mamma; he showed me a letter of recommendation from a New York firm he used to work for, and they speak very highly of his salesmanship. The Circle.

Phone 1461 Maip DENVER WANTS NEW RAILWAY CHAMBER OF COMMERCE END DORSES DENVER, LARIMIE & NORTHWESTERN. PLEDGES ITS SUPPORT WORK BETWEEN DENVER AND FORT COLLINS TO BE COMMENCED MAY 1ST. Denver.—"Resolved that the Denver Chamber of Commerce and Board of Trade commend the Denver, Laramie and Northwestern railroad to the confidence and support of the Denver and Colorado public and capital, and we unite with the promoters in the commencement of its construction May 1, 1908." The above resolution, introduced by Senator T. M. Patterson at a smoker at the Chamber of Commerce Wednesday night, was adopted with enthusiasm and unanimity. The men present largely represented the wealth and commerce of Denver, besides Senator W. A. Harris and Judge Milliken of Kansas, Senator W. L. Clayton of Greeley and former Congressman Lafe Pence. The keynote of the meeting was sounded by Senator Patterson and Senator Harris, who, in an eloquent address, outlined the possibilities of the road and its influence on Colorado and more particularly Denver. According to President C. S. Johnson, the first shovelful of dirt will be lifted within the city limits by May 1st. At the present time $600,000 has been subscribed and from May 1st work will be rushed as fast as money and energy will permit. The first objective point is Fort Collins, then on to Laramie, then Elk mountain coal fields and straight on to Seattle, tapping on the way the richest coal fields in the country, uncounted acres of virgin timber land, the sheep grazing country of Wyoming and the great wheat fields of Oregon. The money to finance the road is claimed to be in sight and $600,000 has been subscribed by the farmers of Kansas, Missouri and Iowa. Denver capital has not been approached to any extent, while the people along the surveyed route are counted on to take care of the undertaking through their part of the country. Senator Patterson eulogized Senator Harris and Judge Milliken of Kansas, attributing to their personal worth and integrity the confidence felt in the road by the farmers of that state. "Associated with men of their worth, no one need fear that the scheme partakes of any of the elements of a gold brick game. A man that can cut down a Republican majority of 60,000 to 1,900 in a contest for governor on the Democratic ticket must certainly have the trust and confidence of his people." Continuing, Senator Patterson said: "My dad has always been to Denver a great manufacturing and commercial center. Surrounded as it is by all the natural resources possessed by any city, it possesses all the qualifications necessary to make it the greatest center between St. Louis and the Pacific coast. With the Moffat road, the Rio Grande and the Colorado & Southern, extending in the three directions, and the Denver, Laramie & Northwestern penetrating to the Northwest, this may be realized. This city will be in possession of coal facilities not equaled by any city in the country and will unite the great Northwest with the center of the Middle West. "The people of this enterprise do not purpose putting themselves at the mercy of the sharks and pirates of the Atlantic coast, as evidenced by the fact that $600,000 has already been raised and $300,000 of this has come from the farmers of Kansas, Iowa and Missouri since last November, when the financial panic was at its worst. This is an enterprise in the open, one that will be a credit and an enduring monument to this beautiful city of ours." Senator W. L. Clayton of Greeley was the next speaker, and told of the hearty support the road would meet with from that section. While the main line will run through Fort Collins, a short line will be built from Greeley, tapping the main line between Denver and Fort Collins. This will insure the road a share in the freight from that great agricultural section. Senator Harris, in an eloquent address, praised the enterprise of Denver men in undertaking to aid a project of this kind. He spoke of the hearty support the project had met in Kansas and would continue to meet with until the final spike was driven at Seattle. "It will bind the great states of Kansas and Colorado closer than ever before," continued the senator. "It will bring besides a firm union between the great states of the Northwest with their resources as yet scarcely even dreamed of, it will be a work more valued as the years go by and will be classed with the building of the great pioneer lines of the West." Former Congressman Lafe Pence, the last speaker, pledged the support of the people of Oregon, where he is now residing. The meeting closed with the ojection of Senator Patterson's resolution pledging the support of Denver and Colorado people and their faith in the promoters. Chicago—In a harmonious meeting of the Democratic state central committee held here Wednesday, W. J. Bryan was endorsed for the presidency in emphatic language. It was decided that the state convention should be held in Springfield, April 22nd. The friends of Roger Sullivan, Illinois member of the Democratic national committee, were in complete control of the meeting. The only point upon which there appeared to be a division of sentiment was over the manner of selecting delegates to the state convention. In this the Sullivan men won their point. The resolution endorsing Bryan was adopted by a vote of 33 to 1. ANARCHIST PAPER BARRED. President Roosevelt Orders It Excluded From the Mails. Paterson, N. J.—President Roosevelt states in answer to an appeal from Mayor McBride to exclude "La Questione Sociale" from the mails, that beside directing that the newspaper be denied the use of the mails, he has requested the department of justice to make every effort to prosecute criminally those responsible for the publication. A copy of the President's letter to the department of justice was enclosed as the reply to the appeal of Mayor McBride, who made public the President's letter. It follows: "To the Department of Justice: "By my direction the postmaster general is to exclude La Questione Sociale of Paterson, N. J., from the mails, and it will not be admitted to the mails unless by order of the court, or unless you advise me further that it must be admitted. Please see if it is not possible to prosecute criminally the men interested in the sending out of this anarchistic and murderous publication. "They are the enemies of mankind, and every effort should be strained to hold them accountable for an offense far more infamous than that of our ordinary murderer. "This matter has been brought to my attention by the mayor of Paterson. I shall, through the secretary of state, call the attention of the governor of New Jersey to the circumstances so that he may proceed under the state law, his attention being further drawn to the fact that the newspaper is circulated in other states. After you have concluded your investigation I wish a report from you to serve as a basis for recommendations by me for action by Congress. "The newspaper article in question advocates murder by dynamite, it specifically advocates the murder of enlisted men of the United States army and the officers of the police force, and the burning of the houses of private citizens. "The preaching of murder and arson is certainly as immoral as the circulation of obscene and lascivious literature and if the practice is not already forbidden by the law it should be forbidden. "The immigration law now prohibits the entry into the United States of any person who entertains or advocates the views expressed in this newspaper article. It is, of course, inexcusable to permit those already here to promulgate such views. Those who write, publish and circulate those articles stand on the level with those who use the mails for distributing poisons for the purpose of murder. No law should require the postmaster general to become an accessory to murder by circulating literature of this kind. "(Signed) "THEODORE ROOSEVELT." Strike Conciliation Fails. Denver—The News Wednesday morning says: Flat failure marked the efforts yesterday of the Denver chamber of Commerce of Commerce to settle the strike of the Denver & Rio Grande shopmen, because of the refusal of the railroad officials to accept any grounds for arbitration. President E. L. Scholtz of the Chamber of Commerce, who took personal charge of the question, obtained from the several unions yesterday morning a bill of grievances, which he presented yesterday afternoon to Vice President Charles H. Schlacks and General Manager A. C. Ridgway. President Scholtz explained to the railroad officials that he offered his services in the interests of the business and traveling public of the state, and that he hoped to act as a friendly mediator between the company and the men for the purpose of bringing to a speedy end a strike which threatens to spread and cause demoralization to the business interests of Colorado. Vice President Schlacks declared in positive terms that he had no statement to make further than that which was published a week ago, and that insofar as he was concerned the strike was at an end. He said the company now had sufficient men to do the work of the strikers and that business was gradually becoming normal. In deference to the older employees, Schlacks said, he would show them preference in giving employment, but that none of the old men would be taken back until vacancies existed. The petition presented to President Scholtz by the strikers yesterday set forth that they wanted their unions recognized, but that they did not seek a closed shop. They wanted time and one-half for overtime and the appointment of foremen from among their ranks. The company refused to consider any of these propositions, all of which are incorporated in the contract recently abrogated by the railroad. Pushing Moffat Road Work Denver.—There are now fully 800 men at work on the Moffat road driving it through to the great coal fields and to Steamboat Springs. On April 30th, twenty miles more of the road will be opened to travel. This will take the trains to McCoy's siding, two and one-half miles from the nearest point to McCoy's station. This new mileage will put the Moffat road on the mall list for the malls to Steamboat Springs as it will cut twenty-five miles from the stage line running from Wolcott to Steamboat Springs. Three miles of heavy work have to be done between McCoy's siding and the springs, involving no less than eleven tunnels and several bridges in one mile, but after that there will be easy sailing. Steamboat Springs will be reached in October. The road will be running through a portion of the coal beds in the middle of the summer. Plans are on foot now for the branches running north and south to open the territory. To Aid Homesteaders Washington.—Senator Teller has introduced a bill providing that persons who have made homestead entries upon lands to be watered from the Gunnison tunnel irrigation project may be given leaves of absence pending completion of the tunnel, but must resume occupation of entries within ninety days after water is furnished from the project for irrigation.

Railroad Building That's All. Edward Payson Weston, the famous veteran walker, talked regretfully in Chicago about walking's decay, "Pedestrianism," he said, "has died out shockingly. A little boy said to me the other day: "What is a pedestrian?" "I answered, truly enough: "Oh, he's just one of those fellows who kick up a row when an automobile runs them down." Instead of doing things there are lots of men who just sit around and make a specialty of knowing how they should be done—Chicago News. Where He Learned His Trade Employer to applicant for work: "You say you learned your trade as an apprentice in one of the largest concerns in the country?" Applicant—Yes, sir, and during my five years' apprenticeship I worked without receiving a cent for it! Employer—Did you work steadily all that time without pay? Applicant—I did', sir, and I got through orly yesterday! Employer—You must be very industrious and ambitious. Where was it you learned your trade? Applicant—In Sing Sing prison. Caught Up With the Cow. "What's the matter?" asked a passenger on a little North Carolina railroad, more remarkable for discretion than for speed, as the train came to a standstill in the midst of green fields. "Cow on the track," replied a trainman laconically. "What's the matter now?" asked the passenger an hour later, as the train stopped once more. "Caught up with the cow again," growled the brakeman. A Hard Head. Representative McCall of Massachusetts, said to Representative Williams of Mississippi, while chatting recently: "John, is it true that one can never injure a Southern darky by striking him on the head?" "Absolutely true," responded Williams with an air of great gravity, "As an instance in point will convince you. A Mississippi darky went to sleep in a barn with his feet against the side. In the night a mule kicked him in the head and the concussion broke his ankle." Power of Deceiving. There is a Brooklyn woman who possesses a servant who is a model in all respects save one—in that she is none too truthful. Lately the mistress has been using all her eloquence to make Nora see the error of deceitfulness. But at last she had to own herself beaten when Nora, with a beaming Irish smile, turned and in a most cajoling tone said: "Sure, now, mum, an' wot de ye suppose the power of desavin' was given us fer?" Littleton's Steamer "Martin W. Littleton, leading counsel in the Thaw case, has a ready way with him," said a New York lawyer. "One night at a dinner I heard him get back at an opponent like this: 'Gentlemen,' he said, if you knew Blank as well as I do, you'd understand that when his mouth opens his brain ceases to work. He reminds me of a little steamer that used to run on the Missouri. The steamer had a seven-inch whistle. The effect of this was that when the whistle blew the steamer stopped." No Use Dodging Among the men who served among Roosevelt's Rough Riders in Cuba was a little Dutch Jew, who, according to the men in his own troop, was "the very incarnation of cool, impudent bravado in a fight." He was a consistent fatalist. One day he observed a comrade dodging a spent bullet that had whistled uncomfortably close to him. "Vat's use to dodge dem pullets?" sang out the little Jew. "Dey'l'll hit you shust as vell vere you are as were you ain't!"—" everybody's Magazine. Thanksgiving Repartee.

I know a young fellow who went to work in a railroad office down town, and the first week he was there the "boss" caught him kissing the typewriter, he glared at him and shouted: "Say, Howard, do I pay you for kissing my typewriter?"

RUSTIC WANTS FILIPINO BRIDE. New York Farmer Advertises for a Brown Girl in a Manila Paper. Utica, N. Y.—A paper published in Manila, Philippine Islands, recently, and just received here, contains the following: Wanted.—An orphan girl for a wife, between the ages of 14 and 24. Send with dowry of $150 to Little Falls, N. Y., freight paid." This is the gist of the wants of Arthur Congdon of Little Falls, N. Y., in a communication written to the secretary of the interior simultaneously with his inserting the above "ad." in a Manila newspaper. Congdon said in his letter to the secretary that he had read of the offer of the government to provide for the care of Filipino girls and the payment to those of marriageable age, who married, a sum equivalent to the cost of two years' maintenance about $150. He said that his work on the farm, where, among other duties, he cared for 45 cows, precluded his going to Manila for an orphan girl, but that he would make one of the maldens his bride if the government would ship him one, freight prepaid, and send along with her the $150 dowry. Congdon, who evidently misinterpreted the cable news regarding the government's plan for marrying off its eligible wards in the Philippines, is a good-looking, husky young farmer, and insisted that he is sincere in his desire to get a Filipino bride. "ANDY" AND "JOHN D." OUT. Carnegie and the Oil Man Disagree Over Game of Golf. New York.—All because of a game of golf, Andrew Carnegie and John D. Rockefeller, two of the most distinguished devotees of the game in this country, are reported to have broken a friendship of years' standing. For months, it is said, they have not spoken to each other and the formerly frequent visits have been abandoned. Although the quarrel which caused the estrangement occurred last fall, the story has only got abroad. The warm argument over which of the two won a game over John D.'s private golf course at Pocantico Hills, is said to have caused the old friends to part. Both assert their differences cannot be patched up without an apology from the other. Each asserts he will never apologize. From all reports, it was the hottest kind of a game that caused the trouble. First one was ahead, then the other. At the sixteenth hole, Rockefeller announced the score, saying he had made 78 strokes, against Carnegie's 81. The former steel king disputed this, saying he had made only 79. Carnegie captured the next holes in three fewer strokes than John. He claimed a final score of 85 to Rockefeller's 86. John D. asserted the proper score was 87 to 86 in his favor. From this beginning the argument grew so warm that their friendship broke under the strain. 8IX KISSES A DAY THE LIMIT. Wife Too Affectionate So Chicagoan Leaves Home. Chicago.—Six kisses a day are the limit for Ora M. Leedom. He promised Detectives Stark and Johnson, who arrested him for deserting his affectionate wife, that he would stay with her on that basis. He was found in Springfield, Ill., where he went seven weeks ago. "It's a case of too much 'lovey' business," said Leedom, on the way back from Springfield. "My wife—she was married once or twice before—is a good woman and a fine housekeeper; but she is too strong on the love business to suit me. "Now, I'm not a chilly guy or anything like that; but I don't want a woman kissing me all the time. When I come home from work in the evening, I like to sit down and read the paper. My wife would want me to hold hands with her and say foolish things. "A few days before I jumped out of town, some actress down in New York made a hit with a kiss that lasted 42 seconds. When my wife read about that in the papers she said she could beat it with one hand tied behind her back. I'm ashamed to tell you what happened." PERPETUAL MOTION, SURE. Inventor Cannot Stop Machine When Once Started. Evanston, Ia.—After spending two years and putting a large amount of money into materials, J. O. Scott of this place claims to have solved the problem of perpetual motion. One machine, having been weakened in remodeling, flew to pieces after running a period of three minutes, and he is now at work on a new model of so substantial a pattern that it cannot fail to stand the test. A governor is all he lacks, claims Scott. After starting his machine, he has no way of stopping it except to load it until it cannot run. The machine, as has been the case with all previous experiments along this line, attempts to utilize gravity for power. On a six-foot wheel Scott claims to have an overbalancing weight of 140 pounds. Weights, cams and levers are used in its construction, but further than this, Scott will not reveal the workings of his model. The weights on one side extend 16 inches beyond the circumference of the wheel, and on the other side fall four inches within. He expects to have the machine completed in about two months. DO YOU KNOW WHAT WHITE LEAD IS? Its Chief Use and a Method of Determining Good from Bad Explained. White Lead is the standard paint material all over the world. It is made by corroding metallic lead into a white powder, through exposing it to the fumes of weak acetic acid and carbonic acid gas; this powder is then ground and mixed with linseed oil, making a thick paste, in which form it is packed and sold for painting purposes. The painter thins it down to the proper consistency for application by the addition of more linseed oil. The above refers, of course, to pure, genuine White Lead only. Adulterated and fake "White Lead," of which there are many brands on the market, is generally some sort of composition containing only a percentage of white lead; sometimes no White Lead at all; in such stuff, barytes or ground rock, chalk, and similar cheap substances are used to make bulk and imitate the appearance of pure White Lead. There is, however, a positive test by which the purity or impurity of White Lead may be proved or exposed, before painting with it. The blow-pipe flame will reduce pure white lead to metallic lead. If a supposed white lead be thus tested and it only partially reduces to lead, leaving a residue, it is proof that something else was there besides white lead. The National Lead Company guarantee all White Lead sold in packages bearing its "Dutch Boy Painter" trademark to prove absolutely pure under this blow-pipe test, and that you may make the test yourself in your own home, they will send free upon request a blow-pipe and everything else necessary to make the test, together with a valuable booklet on paint. Address, National Lead Company, Woodbridge Building, New York. WHY THEY SLEEP IN CHURCH. Hypnotism, Not Drowsiness, Declared to Be the Cause. "Churchgoers don't sleep in church. They undergo an hypnotic trance. The soothing voices and mild music and monotonous recitative of a church service put forth powerful hypnotic influences, and that is why the pews resemble a railroad track in the abundance of their sleepers." The speaker, a hypnotist, banged the table vehemently. "Don't laugh," he said. "It's true. Hypnotism, not drowsiness, is what makes you sleep in church. Through your auditory nerve sound waves are passed to your brain that are as effective as though a professional hypnotist had made them. Sound, you know, is the newest and best hypnotic. "At first, in the church service, the periodicity of the wave alterations is short. There is a little speaking, then more music. And just when you are getting properly lulled the clergyman, in a modulated, agreeable, soothing voice, speaks on and on and on—and you begin to nod. You are, hypnotically speaking, entranced. "The average church service is a scientifically correct hypnotic instrument. No wonder, then, it puts many of us to sleep." Beyond Him. On the occasion of the production of "Lucia" at the Metropolitan opera house last winter a well-known clubman, who had taken a cousin from a Connecticut town to hear Donizetti's great work, turned to his relative during the first intermission and asked how he liked the opera. "Oh, pretty fair," said the visitor; "but is the whole blamed thing in Latin?"—Harper's. A. Diplomat "So you gave your husband a box of cigars?" "Yes," answered young Mrs. Torkins. "Did he appreciate them?" "Indeed he did. He values them so highly that he is smoking a pipe so as not to use them up too fast." HAPPY OLD AGE Most Likely to Follow Proper Eating. As old age advances, we require less food to replace waste, and food that will not overtax the digestive organs, while supplying true nourishment. Such an ideal food is found in Grape-Nuts, made of whole wheat and barley by long baking and action of diastase in the barley which changes the starch into sugar. The phosphates also, placed up under the bran-coat of the wheat, are included in Grape-Nuts, but left out of white flour. They are necessary to the building of brain and nerve cells. "I have used Grape-Nuts," writes an Iowa man, "for 8 years and feel as good and am stronger than I was ten years ago. I am over 74 years old, and attend to my business every day. "Among my customers I meet a man every day who is 92 years old and attributes his good health to the use of Grape-Nuts and Postum which he has used for the last 5 years. He mixes Grape-Nuts with Postum and says they go fine together. "For many years before I began to eat Grape-Nuts, I could not say that I enjoyed life or knew what it was to be able to say 'I am well.' I suffered greatly with constipation, now my habits are as regular as ever in my life. "Whenever I make extra effort I depend on Grape-Nuts food and it just fills the bill. I can think and write a great deal easier." "There's a Reason." Name given by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich. Read "The Road to Wellville." in knox A REMARKABLE MAN.

For 40 years he was a victim of kidney troubles and doctors said he would never be cured. "I was trying "everything," says Mr. Kollock.

Recently I began using Doan's Kidney Pills, with fine results. They have given me entire relief." Sold by all dealers. 50 cents a box. Foster-Milburn Co., Buffalo, N. Y. Origin of the Elevator. The elevator originated in Central Europe. The earliest mention of the elevator is made in a letter of Napoleon I. addressed to his wife, Archduchess Maria Louise. He writes to her that when in Schoenbrunn, then the summer residence of the Austrian emperor, near Vienna, he used the "chaise volante" (flying chair) in that castle which had been constructed for Empress Maria Theresa. It consisted of a small, square room, sumptuously furnished with hangings of red silk and suspended by strong ropes with counter weights, so that it could be pulled up or let down with great ease in a shaft built for the purpose about 1760. Just mere shadows of their former selves. DEEP CRACKS FROM ECZEMA "I had eczema on my hands for about seven years and during that time I had used several so-called remedies, together with physicians' and druggists' prescriptions. The disease was so bad on my hands that I could lay a slate-pencil in one of the cracks and a rule placed across the hand would not touch the pencil. I kept using remedy after remedy, and while some gave partial relief, none relieved as much as did the first box of Cuticura Ointment. I made a purchase of Cuticura Soap and Ointment and my hands were perfectly cured after two boxes of Cuticura Ointment and one cake of Cuticura Soap were used. W. H. Dean, Newark, Del. Mar. 28, 1907." On the Judges. A celebrated Scottish lawyer had to address the Caledonian equivalent of our supreme court. His "pleading" occupied an entire day. After seven hours of almost continuous oratory he went home, at supper and was asked to conduct family worship. As he was exhausted his devotions were brief. "I am ashamed of ye," said the old mother. "To think ye could talk for seven hoops up at the court and dismiss your Maker in seveen minutes." "Ay, verra true," was the reply, "but ye maun mind that the Lord isna sae dull in the uptak as that judge-bodies." Billion Dollar Grass. Most remarkable grass of the century.

Two officers who were hunting wolves on the Dry mountain in central Servia lost their way in a fog. After wandering for 14 hours one of them lay down in the snow and speedily became unconscious. His comrade bound him with cords, placed him in a sitting position and then rolled him down the mountain. He glided down the slope at terrific speed and reached the bottom safely, being found an hour later in an exhausted condition by a peasant. He is now in the hospital being treated for the lacerations he received in bumping over the rocks during his descent. His companion is unhurt.

The Colorado Statesman 1824 CURTIS STREET ROOM 25. --- Modes of the Moment 26 SMART WALKING GOWNS In the earliest days of its existence, now some ten years ago, the blouse seriously threatened the sovereignty of the dressmaker. When we grew more familiar with it and embraced its easeful charms with enthusiasm, we realized that, like every excellent innovation, it had its place, but that its place was not everywhere, with every skirt, or on every person, or for every occasion. There is no doubt, however, that its comfortable convenience and easy acquirement have exercised a baneful influence over the fortunes of the "little dressmaker." The blouse is the garment of the populace, the joy of the million, and, if half the stories one hears be true, it is at once the despair and support of the submerged tenth, whose fortunes, or misfortunes, by the way, I realize as being too deep for mere trivial allusion. The blouse is the heroine of my story at the moment, and I at once confess myself addicted to its delights, though sternly refusing myself these on any but early morning costumes save in mid-summer, when I permit myself to revel in its attractiveness without a thought for the undoubted fact that it is neither generally becoming to the figure, nor acceptable to the connoisseur, unless made by the hand of the expert, or elaborately embroidered and of the finest fabrics. There is luxury in blouse land as well as an almost incredible possibility for economy. Blouses I have seen bearing the kimono outline, which remains much in fashion, with insertions of lace of the Cluny order, alternating with tucks, the bodice portion of soft lawn, at something less than six shillings each. How it is done I do not know, and should not like to ask. But there is no doubt that blouses of this description exist in the thousands, and the variety of others, less ornate perhaps but no less attractive, is practically endless. The Parisians have taken a fancy at the moment to the blouse of fine ninon merely decorated with tucks and little pearl buttons, and completed with lawn collar and glace tie, admirable examples of what the dwellers in the land of the Stars and Stripes call "the shirt waist." Another very attractive model of a blouse which combines the advantages of the blouse and the shirt is of white pongee, merely decked into large tucks hem-stitched. Then, again, the little striped and spotted nun's veiling is made into plain shirts which cost but a few shillings. The shot silk blouse has waned in our affections, and chine silk blouses have comparatively little patronage, and the prodigal now turn their attention towards shirts of crepe de chine, a capital material for the purpose, too, since it washes well and hangs delightfully. And lastly on the list of the blouse popular, comes the blouse of lawn, of linen, and of crash. The industrious amateur may buy a blouse of crash ready cut and traced with an embroidery pattern, and work her dainty will upon it, and achieve a result far in excess of its initial price. The finer camric and linen lawn blouses may also be bought traced to embroider, but they do not perhaps reward the laborer since they are somewhat difficult to work successfully. There are two new underbodices in the market, specially designed to do the blouse honor. Both are made of linen, both are boned down the center of the front, both cross at the back and fasten invisibly, while their adjustment is so contrived that they can be tightened or loosened at the will or necessity of the wearer, and they hook securely down to the front of the corset. And now I have forgotten in my list of the blouses desirable the very latest model. It is made of stripes of embroidered pique, joined with fine tucks of lawn, and it looks exceedingly well under the regulation tailor-made coat and skirt, which continues to hold some measure of our fancy, although, in truth, not so much as they usually obtain at this time of year. We are, so to speak, set upon the directoire style. Our skirts are long and very narrow, and they bear in the center of the front three little pleats, which look as if they had dropped L. H. H. A SLEEVELESS PALETOT. Trimmed with Embroidery or Braid and Revers of Velvet—The Coat Is Ornamented with Tassels. there accidentally, but have really been planned with infinite trouble to assume a carelessness their arrangement did not permit. The skirt, being cut high above the waist, is fastened with a band either of ribbon, silk, or petersham, or galon, and the long coat hangs straightly to the sides, with deep-pointed revers, buttoned usually with large buttons of enamel or metal, on either side of a double-breasted waistcoat, which terminates above the waist. Spring walking costumes are the two heroines of our large illustration. No. 1 is of cloth, with the bodice draped with a suggestion of kimono and the fichu, the waistcoat and the sleeves being braided, while the reverses are of gulpure, and tassels dangle on either side of the buttons down the front. The other shows a coat and skirt of dark blue, trimmed with strappings and small gold buttons, and a line of white braid beyond the purple velvet collar and cuffs, the latter being frilled daintily with soft muslin and lace.

Beef Bone and Vegetables Make an Ideal Combination. After thoroughly washing in tepid water a 15-cent beef shank soup bone, place it in an eight-quart kettle and cover with cold water, and when slowly boiling remove all scum. Add a cup of cold water, which will cause more scum to arise, and when clear cover closely and allow to boil slowly two hours, adding water occasionally. Then add salt to taste, a large onion cut in two, two large carrots cut lengthwise in about six pieces each, and a large cupful of best tomatoes—use the tomatoes as they come from the can, the thick part as well as the juice—and boil the whole until the carrots are well done, when add a half teaspoonful of celery salt, and boil a few minutes longer, then strain and serve hot. A strip or two of the carrot can be served in each bowl if desired, they being palatable so cooked and great complexion beautifiers. This soup will be found most excellent for a weak stomach, or found most excellent for anyone recovering from sick headache. BUCKWHEAT CAKES FOR TWO. By Leaving a Starter, They Can Be Kept Going for Several Weeks. One quart lukewarm water, one tablespoonful cornmeal, one teaspoonful sugar, one-half cake of compressed yeast, one cupful buckwheat flour, one cupful white flour; let rise over night; in morning add one teaspoonful salt. Leave two-thirds cupful of batter for starter, and put in cool place until following night, when you repeat as before, with the exception of the yeast (which you do not need again), and the sugar. The second morning turn out the batter you want to use in another dish and add the salt and sugar and a pinch of soda. If any of this batter is left do not put back with the starter, as it is not good to keep after the soda is in it. By leaving a starter each time and doing as directed, these cakes can be kept going for several weeks, but be sure and not put in salt until just before baking, and they will always be light. This recipe is sufficient for two people. Chocolate Pie Bake a crust the same as for a cocoanut pie, then fill with this mixture; Put one cup of milk with a pinch of salt and a square and a half of grated chocolate into the double boiler. When hot stir in two level tablespoonfuls of flour moistened to a paste with a little cold milk. Cook, stirring constantly until smooth and thickened, then cook just ten minutes longer. Mix the yolks of two eggs with five tablespoonfuls sugar, and pour the hot mixture over them, stirring well. Return to the double boiler and cook two minutes, stirring constantly. Cool, flavor with vanilla and cinnamon, put into the crust, bake ten minutes, then, after cooling slightly, cover with a meringue made from the whites of the eggs whipped stiff with two tablespoonfuls sugar. Set in a cool oven to puff and color. Cheese Pudding. A delicious cheese pudding is made from one five-cent loaf of baker's bread with a half pound of good cheese about the strength of that used in making Welsh rarebit. Cut off the hard crusts of the bread, slice and butter, laying slices loosely in the baking dish with alternate layers of cheese, cut in thin slices. Beat one egg and add a quart of milk with a pinch of salt. Pour this mixture over bread and cheese and let it soak until every slice is moistened. Bake 35 to 45 minutes until brown on top as in bread pudding. Serve on hot plates and quickly. The hotter the better. Baked Bean Rareblt. A novelty in the shape of a bean rarebit is recommended in the Woman's Home Companion as a good way of using up the left-over baked beans. The recipe is as follows: Melt two tablespoonfuls of butter, add one teaspoonful of salt, one-eighth of a teaspoonful of paprika, one-half cupful of milk and one cupful of cold mashed baked beans. Stir until thoroughly heated and add one-half cupful of grated soft, mild cheese. As soon as the cheese has melted serve on small circular pieces of toasted bread or zephyrettes. The recipe is admirably adapted for chafing dish use. Dandelion Wine. One gallon dandelion blossoms picked when the sun is shining. Put in stone crock; pour over them one gallon of boiling water. Let stand in a cool place for three days; then put in a porcelain-lined kettle, with the rind of three oranges and one lemon cut up fine. Boil 15 minutes, strain, add three pounds of sugar and the pulp and juice of the oranges and lemon. When lukwarm add half of a yeast cake. Stand one week in a warm place. Strain again; let stand until it stops working, then bottle. Glazed Carrots. Wash and scrape the carrots and cook in boiling salted water until tender. Drain; slice and place in a buttered baking pan. Sprinkle sparingly with sugar, salt and pepper, and dot over with butter.' Add a half cup of water and bake in a hot oven until brown. To Cool a Bed. Try slipping a newspaper under the back to absorb the perspiration. When one paper becomes saturated replace it with another cool and dry.
