SUGGES On the Political Issues of the Joseph H. Stuart, wh Some Intere Last week the Republican party by choosing its standard bearers for the battle ahead gives command to clear the decks for action. It is a command addressed to every constituent part of the great organization, whether they be regarded as individuals or groups of individuals. The fate-fol campaign of 1908 is on. It is one, unless all signs fail, that will go down in history as one of the most memorable and momentous struggles the country has witnessed. No intelligent citizen can be ignorant of the problems involved in this mighty conflict. None can afford to be indifferent to the manner of their solution and final outcome. All must have a deep and abiding interest in seeing that they are rightly solved so as to bring the greatest good to the greatest number. Tons of literature will be scattered broadcast all over the land, and the familiar voice of the campaign orator will make vocal the atmosphere of hill and dale and hamlet and city as he preaches from stump or platform true political gospel of his party, recounts once again its beneficent and glorious record, and loudly proclaims its potentiality, its certain promise and high purpose of doing mightier and better things for the dear people,—if continued or put in power. Oh, it will be a campaign of noise and fury, of enthusiasm and defiance. But it will be a campaign of education. Every resource, tactical and strategical will be resorted to. The sinews of war will be drawn upon as never before. But when all this artillery practice and cannonading has done its work and served its purpose of sound and fury and distraction, and the enemy is supposed to be thoroughly demoralized, then the innocent silent ballots of free men will determine the battle. Here is where the great political generals, the great orators and the great captians of industry meet the common citizen on a common plane where all have an equal chance. For after all it is numbers, organization and ballots, that win elections; just as in normal conditions it is the superior weight of the battalions and the accuracy of bullets that win battles. The great storm and stress of selecting the national candidates being over, the several local units of the party throughout the country will now use this period of calm to take their bearings, marshal their forces and ascertain how they can best promote and multiply the chances of victory. For nothing must be taken for granted, nothing despised, nothing neglected or overlooked. It is a safe prediction that Mr. Bryan will be the standard-bearer of the Democratic party. It may be reasoned that as he has been badly beaten in two other national campaigns he will easily meet the same fate in this struggle. But it must be borne in mind that "the peerless one" has learned a good many things since his last defeat: Experience has made him more conservative, and political failure must necessarily have brought him more practical wisdom—at any rate more of the tricks of practical politics. In any case, keeping in mind the new, various and difficult problems which have arisen since his last defeat and are pressing and clamoring for immediate and thorough solution, the Democratic candidate might almost be regarded as a somewhat unknown quantity. It is true his views are generally known on these subjects, but the people have not had a chance for eight years to express an opinion as to whether or not they might sustain or reject his judgement. And herein lies the danger of over confidence. Mr. Bryan was met and overwhelmingly defeated in two campaigns on the wild eyed heresy of free silver, and what he chose to term imperialism. His strength with the masses has not yet received a test on these new questions, and he has practically abandoned the old ones. There is no wisdom, however, in holding him a dead easy mark, as some affect to do, or disregarding his popularity with the masses. Whatever view we may take of the outlook for Republican success nationally we cannot close our eyes to the situation in Colorado and especially here in Denver. In every calculation the fact must never be lost sight of that this was once the banner Bryan, state. Another fact to be remembered is that while in 1900 Bryan carried the state by a greatly reduced majority, it was against a presidential candidate who had beaten him before, and whose prosperous admin- DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, JUNE 27, 1908. istration, fresh in the memory of the electors, had discredited Bryan's free, silver doctrines. Add to this the natural desire of the ordinary mortal to get in the band wagon of the recent winners, and the phenomenal diminution of the Bryan majority is easily accounted for. But we must not forget that the free silver virus is still in the blood of a large percentage of the electors and it would not be very surprising if a goodly number of such voters would favor the election of the former great apostle of that idea. We wish to point out these little things, because it is well that we take them into consideration at the beginning of this campaign in Colorado. We do not wish to dictate, we merely suggest. And because of certain political conditions, affecting the political status of the colored race, our voice will be heard urging upon the party the imperative duty of exercising the utmost care and watchfulness in organizing and holding together its natural forces. The spirit of unrest is abroad. Discontent is active and increasing. The party has nothing to lose, and if it wishes to win it will immediately sit up and take notice. "BLIND TOM" Thomas Wiggins, of world-wide fame as "Blind Tom," the singularly gifted pianist, is dead. Tom was born in slavery sixty years ago. His owner was Colonel James N. Bethume, of Georgia, at whose daughter's home in Hoboken N. J., Tom spent his last years in peace and comfort. When Charity Wiggins was purchased by Colonel Bethune she carried in her arms a blind and feeble pickanny that seemed destined to a useless and unhappy life. The child used to lie on the grass with his eyes turned to the sun, making odd grimaces and uttering strange sounds. When he grew strong enough to walk he groped his way about the premises taking special delight in stationing himself near the master's house and listening to the music within. One day Tom was discoved in the parlor fingering the keyes of the piano, which he had managed to find by some stange instinct. Those who listened were astonished. He was allowed to continue, and so remarkable was the performance from that day he was encouraged to practice, and afterwarb was often called upon to entertain company. This was the beginning of Tom's extraordinary career. His gift was cultivated, and while yet a child he was put on the concert stage and soon became one of the wonders of the musical world. His tours extended throughout the United States and over much of Europe, and everywhere his per- formances were regarded as marvelous. He had a repertoire of difficult concert pieces by Thalberg, Gottschald and other composers of a past generation. These he had studied assiduously under the best teachers; for it was not true, as stated for advertising purposes, that Tom was wholly untaught and that all his feats in execution were spontaneous. His musical ear phenomenally acute and sensitive, his imitative faculty was normal, and his memory was wonderful. His playing was always earnest and sincere, especially if the compositions were of a high class, and compelled close attention. Tom was said to be deeply religious. The last few years of his life were spent quietly, with only now and then a brief concert tour. With the death of "Blind Tom" there passes away a unique musical figure, one about which mystery was made, which appealed to the imagination and the love of the marvelous, and which centered in itself a most unusual combination of mental deficiency and genius of a high order.—Rochester Democrat and Chronical. RACE NEWS GATHERED FROM VARIOUS SOURCES Bristol, Pa. June 14.—By the will of the late Elizabeth Lacy, of Wrightstown this country, Anna M. Reading, a colored woman who was for many years a faithful servant of the deceased, inherits a 32-acre farm worth $5,000. Relatives of Mrs. Lacy received the furniture of the farmhouse and much valuable silverware. Within the past few weeks many things of inter-racial importance have occured to jar the theories of rabid southerners. Several southern white women of good standing have eloped with Negro men. A Virginia belle, who married a wealthy Yankee, has just been divorced from her husband because of her love for her coal black coachman. A Harvard professor has just lost his position because a heavy suit for damages for breach of promise was instituted by a colored woman. A white son of the sunny south has just eloped and married a colored woman. Apart from that every day mulattoes wander into strange neighborhoods, and in the night they turn out white. Look over any American gathering. See the dark hair, dark eyes, full lips, prominent features and you may know that God is, in his own quiet natural way, solving the great American question of race prejudice. TUSKEGEE Men in Soudan. John P. Powell Gives an Interesting Account of the Work Going on at Zeidab. (From New York Tribune) In December, 1904, three graduates of Tuskegee Institute, in Alabama, went to Africa to introduce American methods of cotton culture among the natives in Soudan. They were Poindexter Smith, a blacksmith; C.W. Triplett, a carpenter, and John P. Powell, a teacher in the agricultural department. They were employed by Leigh Hunt, an American capitalists, who is said to have large interests in Manchuria and Corea, and who had some original notions as to the possibilities of cotton culture in the Soudan. Triplett returned after two years' absence. Smith died. Powell has recently returned to recover from the debilitating effects of the tropical climate. He expects to go back again. He gives an interesting account of the work going on at Zeidab, where Mr. Hunt has leased 40,000 acres of land from the Egyptian government. The company, which has erected expensive irrigation works and buildings, has at present 3,000 acres of land cleared, 1,000 cf which have been let to tenants. The land yields as high as 800 pounds of lint cotton an acre, under the method of culture employed and averages something over one bale an acre. Zeidab, where the plantation lies, is a few miles above the junction of the Nile and Atbara. It was in the plain formed by the junction of these two rivers that Meroe, the ancient capital of Ethiopia, was situated. It was here that Queen Candace, who is mentioned in the New Testament, lived. "There are three distinct methods of irrigation in use along the Nile." said Powell the other day. "The first and most ancient is that of getting the water from the Nile with buckets by the arrangement such as we see sometimes there in the old fashioured wells—a beam on a pole, with a bucket on one end and a weight on the other. You see a great deal of irrigation by this primitive method in both the lower and the upper Nile. Then there is the windlass, an arrangement of buckets on a wheel, which is moved by a team of bullocks. The third method is the steam pump. The irrigation at Zeidab and the three other plantations conducted by Europeans in the Soudan is by steam pumps. To run these pumps it is necessary NO. 40. to import coal, as there is hardly any wood in the Soudan." Powell stated that large quantities of sand are spread over the country by sandstorms, and that he has seen trains delayed for five and six hours by sand piled across the tracks. "I became very well acquainted with the natives during the three years I was there. Shortly after I arrived I was set to digging a canal which was to be the source of all the water for the irrigation of the whole tract of 40,000 acres. For a long time I saw only the natives for weeks at a time. After I became well enough versed in their language to talk freely with them I used to go sometimes to visit the natives in their huts. They used to ask me all sorts of questions about my people and the country from which I came. They wanted to know if we had a sun and moon in my country as they had in the Soudan. "I found them very dexterous in weaving ank in making the few articles of furniture and of dress they use, but they were not worth much as laborers. We paid them 15 cents a day, and that is all they were worth. The younger generation was quick to learn and worked a great deal better than the older people. What they need is schools. While Triplett was there he started a school for the natives and the rest of the Tuskegee party supported it. The pupils learned quickly and before he went away several of the boys could speak pretty good English and read and write a little. "The difficulty in the Soudan is to get labor. The tribal wars have almost depopulated their country. I have heard it said that during the 10 years that the Soudan was under the Khalifa the population was reduced from 10,000,000 to 2,000,000. I have frequently ploughed up in the fields on our plantations bones of men, women and children who had been killed in some of these fights. I have seen, in going about the country, hundreds of empty villages. It is no use to attempt to increase the arable lands of the Soudan until it is possible in some way to repopulate the country. There has been something said in regard to peopling the country with colored people from America, but I do not think any one who knows the Sou- (Continued to fourth page) BOURNS:—10 to 11 a. m. 8 to 6 and 7 to 8 p. m.

EX-PRESIDENT CLEVELAND DIES SUDDENLY AT PRINGETON Death Comes After Long Illness When His Family Believes the Danger to Be Over—His Career Will Fill a Prominent Place in History Princeton, N. J.—Ex-President Grover Cleveland died suddenly at his home here at 8:40 o'clock this (Wednesday) morning. While his death was unexpected, he had been ill for a number of weeks and his constitution was weakened. Only yesterday Dr. Joseph T. Bryant of New York paid a visit to Mr. Cleveland's home, but the information was subsequently given out that the visit was not occasioned by an alarming condition of the former President's life. Indeed, Mrs. Cleveland was particularly cheerful last night over the condition of her husband. He was apparently in good spirits and his health was better than it had been for some time. In the afternoon he took a little outdoor exercise and retired at his usual hour last night. When the discovery of his death was made this morning the residents of Princeton were shocked and the grief of Mrs. Cleveland was almost uncontrollable. For a number of years Mr. Cleveland had suffered from periodical attacks of sickness, usually in the summer time. Last year he became ill in the spring and did not recover his wonted health until September. Mrs. Cleveland last night was overjoyed that her husband had recovered so quickly this year and she was on the verge of planning for their summer's recreation. Mrs. Cleveland, in discussing her husband's health just a few hours before his death, had the following to say: "Mr. Cleveland is daily gaining strength. It is true that Dr. Bryant was here, but that is his first trip since Mr. Cleveland was brought back from the Lakewood hotel. It is only one of the occasional visits he pays us. Mr. Cleveland is rapidly improving, and we are very sanguine for his future." The Cleveland children were notified this morning, and are hurrying to Princeton. They have been at Tamworth, New Hampshire, with Mrs. Cleveland's mother. The death of the former President today ends one of the most stubborn fights for life ever chronicled. For many years Mr. Cleveland has suffered, and in that time there have been many rumors of his death. Through all the long fight for life the one bright spot has been Mrs. Cleveland's untiring devotion. Cleveland's Life Epitomized. Born in Caldwell, Essex county, New Jersey, March 18, 1837. Received an academical education at Fayettesville and Clinton, the latter in Oneida county, New York. Became clerk in a law office and was admitted to the bar in 1859. Assistant district attorney Erie county 1863-6. Sheriff of Erie county 1870-3: Elected mayor of Buffalo in 1881. Elected governor of New York the following year. Elected President of the United States in 1884. Was nominee for same office in 1888, but was defeated by Benjamin Harrison. Again elected President in 1892. Again elected President in 1892. Elected trustee Equitable Life Assurance Society of the United States June 10, 1905. Sketch of His Career. Cleveland was the son of Richard Failey Cleveland, a Presbyterian minister. His mother was Anne Neal, daughter of a Baltimore merchant. His advantages in early life were few, for the times of his youth were difficult, and even a minister's son could not see clearly the opportunities. As a boy he worked as a clerk in a store, aiding in the support of his family. His two brothers were soldiers in the Civil War. He could not enlist, but he sent a substitute, and worked many years afterward to pay him. At seventeen he was an assistant teacher in a school for the blind in New York City, and then went to Buffalo. Here he secured a position as copyist, with a law firm and began to read Blackstone, being paid in the meantime $4 a week. After being admitted to the bar, in 1859, his rise with the law firm was rapid, until he became manager at a salary of $1,000 a year. He supported his widowed mother. He became district attorney, afterward formed a law firm known as Lanning, Cleveland & Folsom, and then was drawn into political life. His record as sheriff of Erie county was so good that it secured his election as mayor of Buffalo. He saved the citizens of the city $1,000,000 during the first six months of his term by vetoing extravagant appropriations. This attracted outside attention and he was elected governor of New York state the following year. In 1884 he was nominated by the Democratic national convention at Chicago and defeated James G. Blaine. He was again a candidate in 1888, but was defeated by Benjamin Harrison. The distinction of being elected President after being defeated was his on the following election, when President Harrison was defeated. Probably few presidents were ever so bitterly criticised as Mr. Cleveland during his second administration. Hard Fairbanks on Cleveland. Indianapolis.—Vice President Fairbanks will probably attend the funeral of Mr. Cleveland. He said: 'Grover Cleveland was one of the best and most patriotic statesmen the country has produced. He devoted himself to the public service with singleness of purpose and stood by his convictions on important public questions with a sturdy courage that commanded admiration among the great body of the people." FREY Copyright 1907 by C. D. Frey. Ex-President Grover Cleveland. Copyright 1907 by C. D. Frey. times came along and the American public held the President responsible. The Venezuelan question was one of the most exciting and alarming features of Mr. Cleveland's administration. The application of the Monroe doctrine by Mr. Cleveland in a boundary dispute between Great Britain and Venezuela, was a serious matter and went so far that Congress was backing up the President with measures anticipative of war. In 1893 the Wilson bill was the result of tariff reform, instituted by the Cleveland administration. Mr. Cleveland made himself clear as to his standing on the bill even though he did not sign it and it became a law through lapse of period allotted for signature. The bond sale was another incident of Mr. Cleveland's administration which was long remembered. The reserve in the treasury sank so low as $44,000,000, and the nation was alarmed. Congress would not respond to numerous messages sent by the executive. There was friction. The bond sale resulted, but at the time Mr. Cleveland asked where was the gain in purchasing gold only to lose it Ex-President again through the redemption of notes. After his retirement Mr. Cleveland became one of the foremost citizens of the nation. He came into extraordinary popularity, in view of the harsh criticism that was directed at him during his tenure of office. He took no pains to attain this popularity but if seemed that the people came to understand him better. At the age of forty-eight Mr. Cleveland married Frances Folsom, daughter of his deceased law partner, Oscar Folsom. Mrs. Cleveland was one of the youngest and most gracious mistresses of the White House. Their domestic life was one of model happiness. With Mrs. Cleveland four children survive—Esther, Francis Grover, Marion and Richard Folsom. The first child, Ruth, born in the White House, died. Watterson's Estimate Louisville, Ky.—Henry Watterson says: "Mr. Cleveland's success was his integrity, his courage and his common sense within the radius of his mental vision. Impatient of restraint, he had a leaning towards the lowly and distrust of the official great; somewhat over-quick to resent advices and to regard it as an intrusion. In point of fact he was a sympathetic though not an emotional or effusive man, and as sensitive as a woman." President Orders Flags Lowered. Oyster Bay.—On receiving news of ex-President Cleveland's death President Roosevelt issued the following proclamation: "BY THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES: "A Proclamation. The White House, June 24, 1908.—To The People of The United States: Grover Cleveland, President of the United States from 1885 to 1889 and again from 1893 to 1897, died at 8:40 o'clock this morning at his home in Princeton, New Jersey. In his death the nation has been deprived of one of its greatest citizens. By profession a lawyer, his chief services to his country were rendered during a long, varied and honorable career in public life. As mayor of his city, as governor of his state and twice as President, he showed signal power as an administrator, coupled with entire devotion to the country's good and a courage that quailed before no hostility when only he was convinced where his duty lay. Since his retirement from the presidency he has continued well and faithfully to serve his countrymen by the simplicity, dig- FREY Copyright 1907 by C. D. Frey.

"In testimony of the respect in which his memory is held by the government and the people of the United States, I do hereby direct that the flags on the White House and the several departmental buildings be displayed at half staff for a period of thirty days; and that suitable military and naval honors, under the orders of the secretaries of war and navy, be rendered on the day of the funeral.

Immediately upon the receipt of the President's proclamation formally announcing Mr. Cleveland's death, steps were taken to carry out the provisions of the executive proclamation.

TO BE MARKED BY SIMPLICITY, WITH NO BANDS OR MILIT TARY ESCORT. NO LENGTHY EULOGY MRS. CLEVELAND DECLINED OF FER OF STATE TROOPS FOR MILITARY FUNERAL. Princeton, N. J.-The funeral of Grover Cleveland June 27th will be marked by extreme simplicity. Although twice elected President of the United States no pomp or splendor will have a place in the ceremonies. There will be no bands to play mournful dirges on the way to the old Princeton cemetery; no military escort, no eulogy by the officiating clergymen. The half mile of thoroughfare through which the cortège will pass from "Westland," the Cleveland home on Bayard Lane to the cemetery, will be policed by mounted troops and blue-coated soldiers, but they will be there for police duty and as a measure of precaution in protecting the living President rather than as an element of display in paying tribute to a departed chief executive. It has been Mrs. Cleveland's wish to avoid anything of a military nature at the funeral, and it was only when the necessity of guarding President Roosevelt, who is to be in attendance, was impressed upon her by those in charge of the funeral arrangements, that she consented to the presence of troops in a police capacity. The final arrangements for the ceremony and the names of those selected to officiate were not announced until this afternoon, when acceptance from all had been received. Four clergymen will officiate at the house and at the grave. They will read the burial service from the Presbyterian book of common worship, but will offer no eulogy. This simple but impressive service will be conducted by Dr. Henry Van Dyke of Princeton, Rev. Dr. William R. Richards, pastor of the Briek Pressbyterian church of N.Y., Rev. Sylvester W. Beach, pastor of the First Pressbyterian church of Princeton, where the Cleveland family attend, and Rev. Maitland V. Bartlett, former pastor of the same church. There will be no honorary pallbearers. Those who will bear Mr. Cleveland's body to its final resting place in the Cleveland plot will be Mayor George B. McClellan, Paul Morton, Commodore E. C. Benedict, Richard Watson Gilder of New York, Professor Paul Van Dyke, Dean Andrew F. West, Professor John G. Hibben, Junius S. Morgan, a nephew of J. Pierpoint Morgan; A. D. Russell, Professor Howard McLenahan and Bayard Stockton of Princeton. The services at the house, which will begin at 5 o'clock, will be brief, after which the cortege will be formed and go to the cemetery down Bayard Lane to Nassau street, the principal street in the village, thence up Vandeverter avenue, to Wiggin street, which leads to the cemetery, a highway along which clusters many historic memories. Only those invited to the funeral and few newspaper men will be permitted to enter the cemetery, which will be guarded by the mounted troops and members of the National Guard of New Jersey. The simple Presbyterian service will be said at the grave, the casket lowered into the ground and one of the country's most distinguished citizens will have become but a memory. President Roosevelt, Governor Fort of New Jersey, Governor Hughes of New York, Governor Hoke Smith of Georgia, members of President Cleveland's Cabinet and other notable citizens are expected to attend. Cartridges Carried Bullets. London, Ont.—Examination Wednesday of the ammunition to be used for the sham battle the next day by the six thousand volunteers in camp at Niagara revealed the fact that one-quarter of the supposed blank shells were loaded with ball, caused by a mixing of shipments. The inspection would not have been made in the ordinary course of events, but Brigadier General Hason of Toronto was led by a feeling of unrest and apprehension to investigate, thereby preventing what must surely have been a great loss of life, as the annual sham battle is always a realistic affair. Telegrams of Condolence. Princeton, N. J.—More than 1,000 telegrams have been received at the Cleveland home and many more are still coming. Among those given out Thursday were these: From Baron Takahira, Japanese ambassador at Washington: "Greatly shocked by the sad intelligence. I hasten to tender very deep condolences and sincere sympathy for the great bereavement that has befallen you and the country.' From W. J. Bryan: "Mrs. Bryan joins me in sending sympathy and condolence." Governor Hughes' Narrow Escape. Albany, N. Y.—Governor Hughes had a narrow escape Wednesday afternoon from being struck by lightning, a bolt striking an automobile in which he was riding, shattering the isinglass screening in front of the machine and spending its force on the steering gear, numbing and burning the hand of Wilfred Palin, Jr., owner of the car, who was at the wheel. While on his way to A. oany and when near Wolfert's Roost, the home of David B. Hill, the climax of a heavy thunderstorm came and a lightning bolt struck the car. The shock was felt by all in the car. YOU'RE TOO THIN. Even Slight Catarrhal Derangements of the Stomach Produce Acid Fermentation of the Food. It's Stomach Catarrh Some people are thin and always remain thin, from temperamental reasons. Probably in such cases nothing can be done to change this personal peculiarity. But there are a large number of people who get thin, or remain thin, who naturally would be plump and fleshy but for some digestive derangement. Thin people lack in adipose tissue. Adipose tissue is chiefly composed of fat. Fat is derived from the oily constituents of food. The fat-making foods are called by the physiologist, hydrocarbons. This class of foods are not digested in the stomach at all. They are digested in the duodenum, the division of the alimentary canal just below the stomach. The digestion of fat is mainly, if not wholly, the work of the pancreatic juice. This juice is of alkaline reaction, and is rendered inert by the addition of acid. A hyperacidity of the digestive fluids of the stomach passing down into the duodenum, destroys the pancreatic fluid for digestive purposes. Therefore, the fats are not digested or emulsified, and the system is deprived of its due proportion of oily constituents. Hence, the patient grows thin. The beginning of the trouble is a catarral condition of the stomach which causes hyperacidity of the gastric juices. This hyperacidity is caused by fermentation of food in the stomach. When the food is taken into the stomach, if the process of digestion does not begin immediately, acid fermentation will take place. This creates a hyperacidity of the stomach juices which in their turn prevent the pancreatic digestion of the oils, and the emaciation results. A dose of Peruna before each meal hastens the stomach digestion. By hurrying digestion, Peruna prevents fermentation of the contents of the stomach, and the pancreatic juice is thus preserved in its normal state. It then only remains for the patient to eat a sufficient amount of fat-forming foods, and the thinness disappears and plumpness takes its place. IMPRESSED THE LITTLE ONE. Deportment of Colored Gentleman a Matter of Admiration. Little Elsie, who had recently returned from a visit to Washington, was describing to her companion some of the wonderful things she had observed in the Capitol City. "One evening," said she, breathlessly, "papa took me to have supper at a grand hotel where the dining room was awfully big, and at the tables around us sat great senators and representatives with their wives, all drinking champagne!" "I suppose the manners of these great persons were perfect?" ventured her companion, with widened eyes. "Yes," returned Elsie. "But," she added, with a sudden burst of enthusiasm, "the deportment of the colored gentlemen who served the wine was perfectly beautiful!" VETERAN OF THREE WARS. A Pioneer of Colorado and Nebraska. Matthias Campbell, veteran of the Civil War and two Indian wars, and a pioneer of Colorado, now living at 218 East Nebraska street, Blair, Neb., says: "I had such pains in my back for a long time that I could not turn in bed, and at times there was an almost total stoppage of a pioneer of Colorado, now living at 218 East Nebraska street, Blair, Neb. says: "I had such palms in my back for a long time that I could not turn in bed, and at times there was an almost total stoppage of the urine.

Corramsa. 100 Arapahoe St. Denver, Coloeada WILL RECOMMEND LAW TO STOP WASTE OF COAL IN MINING. Denver.—In an address before the Denver Real Estate Exchange Wednes- day, Governor Buchtel spoke in regard to the recent conference at the White House, called by the President to stir up popular sentiment for the preser- vation and husbanding of the natuval resources of the nation. He told the real estate men something of the in- teresting personal side of the confer ence, and then indicated its bearing upon Colorado.” In the course of his remarks, Gov- ernor Buchtel indicated that he would recommend extensive legislature tend- ing to preserve the natural resources of the state, when the Legislature as- sembles in January. He asked for sug- gestions along these lines, in order that the laws that he would ask might be made as practical and comprehensive as possible. "According to the governor the con- ference zt Washington was along four general lies—water, land, forests and the mines. He explained that Colorado methods of cultivation were such that the wearing out of the soil was un- likely, but that the other three sub- Jects were of vital interest to the state. The governor explained that it now is the practice in coal mining to ex: tract only the good product, and that thereby there was an enormous waste when the mines are abandoned: He ad- yocated legislation that would require the use of all of the product, thereby extending the period during which the supply would be available. With reference to water and forests the governor said that this state should do everything possible to benefit from these natural resources. He advocated the use of water for producing electrial power, and its use over again for irri gating. The forests, he said, should be replanted as rapidly as the timber is cut, thereby insuring a never-ending wunDle. FLOOD’S MARKET Denver Largest Anti-Trust Meat Market in the West.

It will be submitted to the various unions for a vote, and, if carried, will then be submitted to the operatiors to be acted upon. It is believed that, if the scale passes the various unions, some of the independ. ent mines wil lagree to it and work will be resumed. It is understood that the Parkdale mine has just taken a contract with the Burlington railroad to furnish the company 300 tons of coal daily, the delivery to begin next week. ‘This leads the miners of the district to believe that this mine, to- gether with others, will accept the scale. ?

We trust that Mr. Roosevelt may be spared, above all risks and dangers, to fully realize the usefulness of the African, at least as a mascot, if not as a soldier and a citizen. BY ORDER OF THE PRESIDENT. Doubtless our readers in general have some acquaintance with Polly Pry, the newspaper writer, whose bright and witty articles have often appeared in the Denver Evening Post and other daily newspapers, She is trying her hand in a new field, just now, and is turning her talent to account as a playwright. ‘The character of her first attempt as a writer of drama makes her effort attractive and interesting. She has chosen the official record of the Brownsville incident as the basis of her play and in working out her plot has followed closely the testimony presented before the several bodies having the investigation of that now famous ease in charge. She has merely made the soldiers in her play white soldiers instead of black soldiers, and has woven into the plot an interesting love romance. The scene is laid on the Texas-Mexican bor- der, as in the real incident, and the varied interests of government guardians, local authorities, smugglers, plainsmen, soldiers and citizens are given due prominence, with the culminating episode of the shooting up of the town and the disgrace and discharge of a gallant soldiery by order of the president. Of course it is a political play, founded on facts. But the theme leads the auditor to judge of the justice of the official order by which a mysterious crime is fastened upon the nation’s de- fenders without other proof than the suspicion of a conspiracy which cannot be proved. The play is said to present many strong situations and also to carry a vein of comedy and wit in keeping with the author’s well-known ability. Tt will therefore be interesting to note the recep- tion given this play the general public. The application of the pres- ident’s order to white soldiers is a strong point, and unless the fact that it is intended as a direct comparison with the real cireamstance shall tend to prejudice the general auditor’s judgment, it will be interesting to watch the effect. The play is to have its initial presentation in Den- yer, at the Curtis Street theater, during the coming week, beginning with a matinee, June 28th. It is fortunate that partisanship cannot be charged against the real motive of the play ; the political affiliations of the president in the play are not expressed and are of no interest, But the moral is obvious. We hope that those of our readers who have at- tempted to follow the details of the Brownsville incident will go to see this play, and we further hope that Polly Pry’s success as a dram- atist may be as brilliant as her success in journalism, THE REPUBLICAN PLATFORM. tly realize and freely declare that the 1 constitutes a strong array of laudable hich combine to recommend the party f the voters of the nation. Upon the a nt, the tariff, the currency, trust and ti igs of laboring men and on many other q A atte ieee att in iaaie UA A hee ee eR We promptly realize and freely declare that the National Repub- lian platform constitutes a strong array of laudable principles and achievements which combine to recommend the party to the favorable consideration of the voters of the nation. Upon the questions of busi- ness development, the tariff, the currency, trust and traffic abuses, the rights and wrongs of laboring men and on many other questions of pub- He policy, the document is clearly abreast of the times and in fair keep- ing with the needs of a great and enlightened nation. The invidious race plank, which we sincerely hoped would not be inserted, because of its uselessness and meaningless bearing, seems to have come to: Chicago this year all ent and dried and ready for unquestioning acceptance, when in other years it has required some strenuous urging to secure ite adoption. This indicates that the platform makers realized- that the man whose nomination for the presidency was assured, needed some. thing to square his own past acts and declarations with the colored man ’s sense of administrative justice, as well as his demands for present and future assurances of that character of a square deal which squares itself without the aid of administrative investigations into alleged “conspir- acies of silence.’’ We are still of the opinion that this plank might just as well have been left ont. The constitutional amendments are not na- tional issues, and only the most radical and therefore most laggard of Southern statesmen entertain the conviction or hope that they ever again will demand the political attention of the people of this nation. The seeurity of the Negro’s rights depends almost wholly now upon what the Negro shall do himself to maintain them. The vindication of the spirit of the constitutional amendments is a moral question affecting the integrity of the nation, and is of as much interest to every white man in the United States as it is to any Negro. But Southern states will continue in their course of disfranchisement, inhalted by any Re- publican legislative poliey, but rather further spurred and hastened by these unbacked expressions in national platforms, which are mere ex- Pressions of personal convictions and not the basis of further legisla- tive or executive intentions, . While our colored citizens can have no Sround to find fault with the Republican platform beyond that herein expressed, it will have very little tendency to restore their confidence in a candidate who partici- pated in the wrongful disgrace of their uneonvieted soldiers.

HE waterways in our country, rivers, canals, lakes and coast- al channels, haye an aggregate length of between 55,000 and 60,000 miles, and only about half of the entire mileage is now used for navigation. ‘The total appropriations made by congress from the be- ginning of 1907 for the rivers of the Mississippi valley amount to $208,484,720. This seems to be a relatively large sum; but when we consider that the United States has spent during the last hundred years in regulating, improving and extending our system of natural waterways only 4/4 per cent. of the amount private capitalists have invested in the construction of railways, our congressional appropriations for the betterment of inland navigation seem to have been conservatively small. The United States has as yet done less than has been done by other leading industrial and commercial rivals in the development and use of inland waterways, if we except, as of course we ought, the chain of great lakes which have no counterpart in any other country. Whether it is desirable that the United States should follow the example of France and Germany as regards inland water transportation is a question to which the American people are now giving serious thought. The construction of canals and the improvement of rivers in the United States have progressed slowly, in part at least, because the federal government has in the past left to the states the work of canal building, and to some extent the canalization of rivers, ‘The experience of our own country and of other nations shows con- clusively that waterways should be public ways—that their execution and maintenance should be by the government. The entire network of American waterways should be improved and extended systematically by one authority, and with reference to the economic and social needs of the entire nation. There is only one power whose authority is as wide as our country, and that is the federal government. In the future but small place in the development and control of waterways will be given either to the states or to private corporations. ‘There can be no doubt that the inland waterways of the United States will be more extensively used in the future than they have been in the past The reasons for this are numerous and conclusive, Qi] ception. He refuses to recognize the inclined plane, down which he slips to find his level in that limbo where things that once were men may be supposed to fade forgotten. ‘The skies are filled with portents, Nature is scarcely mistress to herself; the elements are as unsettled as in the awful days when Imperial Caeser fell. All the trouble arises from the fact that the Sleeping Beauty has awakened. She went to sleep, a mere girl, and now opens her eyes to find herself a very woman. No longer a mere dreamer of dreams, she is likely to become a very valiant doer of deeds. Not only is she coming into her own, she is coming into our own. ‘That is where she touches us on the raw. It is clear that we must look io our laurels, for our fair competitors will no longer be put off with mere garlands of roses. She is grasping at the skirts of power, and not even a creation of Worth’s will wholly satisfy her now. Before she slept the sleep from which she has awakened so surprisingly refreshed, her horizon was bounded by her wardrobe. Now the whole world scarcely gives room enough to her ambition. Though still susceptible to the dazzle of diamonds and the glitter of gold, she is not so blinded by them that she cannot see her way clear to reach any goal or gratify any ambition on which she may have set her mind. No sensible man—and are we not all, all sensible men?—will grudge woman the position she is now taking up. Competition is an excellent thing in all spheres of human activity, and is bound to make for the prog- ress of humanity. Why should it be supposed that all the good things of this planet should be a monopoly of the male? Men have been some- what arrogant and careless of their position. They were adopting a rather go-as-you-please frame of mind. ‘They were running, running down in- deed, like clockwork. They wanted a bit of screwing up. They are now being screwed up. But they do not like the idea of a woman turning the screw. She puts trop de zele into it. Whatever her hand finds to do she does it with her might. ‘Therein lies the secret of the modern woman’s success. ‘There is very little of the jellyfish in what we call the softer sex. There is, indeed, a surprising amount of grit in the most apparently fragile among them. And it is this quality among others that is enabling them to take up the new position in the old world and to extend their sphere of influence, so that they may step in where Mrs. Grundy has feared to tread. These pro- gressive women take their careers very seriously. They are in deadly earnest about their advancement. ‘They do not pretend to be in the busi- ness for the fun of the thing. They are out to break the record, so to speak, and it is not likely that they are going to look back. Now that woman has begun to ascend in the scale of progress she is bound to rise to the top. “The froth is sure to rise,” say her enemies.

The natives have always raised cotton, and four companies engaged in cotton culture buy this cotton of the na- tives and ship it to Liverpool. We have no gin, but ship out the seed cotton in 300-pound sacks. One of the sacks is worth about $22.50 in Liverpool. The govern- ment holds a fair every year at it offers prizes to the natives for the best cotton, These fairs are held in four or five of the largest cities of the Soudan.

According to reports received here the Negro woman’s screams attracted the at- tention of her husband, who ran to her aid and was knocked down by With two such languages why don’t tne Japanese and the Chinese make it a war of words?

Gray, or 67 Ruggler St., are congratulating her upon the winning of her lawsuit against Mrs. Mary Corliss, who keeps a restaurant for lunch, and was told by the proprietor she could not be served because she was colored. Mrs. Gray had the woman brought into court, where, with a number of witnesses, she tried to prove she conducted a private business. Lawyer Benjamin, who conducted the case for Mrs. Gray, made Mrs. Corliss acknowledge that she had yariovs signs, inviting the public to eat and announcing her prices? On May 29, Judge Bond fined Mrs. Corliss $50 and remarked, in passing sentence, that the case was flagrant one of race discrimination For Yourself Your Wife Your Child It will give us . pleasure to waitupon you y 1508-1514 Larimer Street Electricity in Siberia, Almost all the towns in Siberia are having arc lights for street use and incandescent lights for houses; and the larger proportion of the people in Siberia have never seen gas, which they regard as an illuminant of @ past age.

Last Sunday was the annual Thanksgiving anniversary of the Masonic fraternity and in honor of the event Rocky Mountain Lodge No. 1, and Centennial Lodge No. 4, A. F. and A. M., and Lone Star Chapter No. 15 and Queen Elizabeth Court No. 5 assembled at Shorter Chapel, where an appropriate program was rendered. The societies met at 1712 Curtis street, and from there marched to the church behind the Progressive Concert Band. The sermon was preached by Rev. A. M. Ward. Eloquent speeches, good music and the annual election of officers were the features of the reception given this year's graduates by the Inter-Graduates Association last Monday evening at 1712 Curtis street. In a short, pointed speech A. G. Fallings welcomed the guest of the evening and was responded to by Miss Geraldine Troutman, who graduated with honors from East Denver. Mrs. Dishman sang as of yore and pleased the audience. Retiring president N. G. Walker spoke at some length of the past and future of the society, after which the election was held with the following result: Nelsine Howard, president; Raymond Clark, vice president; Geraldine Troutman, secretary; N. G. Walker, treasurer; Mabel Anderson, critic. --- Polly Pry, the noted newspaper woman, known throughout the United States, has written a play taking her theme from the Brownsville incident. Polly ably defends the colored soldiers and her drama shows the rank injustice of the authorities in Washington in firing these boys, who were as true and loyal a band of soldiers as were ever in the service of this or any other country. "By Order of the President" is the name of the thrilling military drama and it is a play that would well be worth the while of every colored man who loves his race and resents seeing them imposed upon whether it be by private individuals or by the officials of the nation. "By Order of the President" will play for a week at the Curtis, beginning to-morrow matinee, Sunday, June 28th, and will then be put on the road. People's Sunday Alliance at Scott's M. E. Church. Attorney F. D. Taggart, who is well known to nearly every colored person in Denver as an enthusiastic and stirring speaker, will make the effort of his life Sunday afternoon at 4 p. m. before the audience, on the subject "Mental Aid as a Factor in Evolution." It is not necessary to urge a large crowd because all of those who have heard the attorney speak on "Co-operation" will be there and bring their friends. A great time will be anticipated and an intellectual treat is in store for all who may come out. SHORTER CHAPEL SUNDAY SERVICES. Change in the Sunday school: The Sunday school meets at 9:45 a. m.

DISTRICT CONFERENCE AND SUNDAY SCHOOL CONVENTION. The district conference and Sunday school convention convened on June 17th at Campbell's A. M. E. Church, Rev. J. H. Hubbard, P. E., in the chair. After the devotional exercises the presiding elder delivered the annual sermon, which was, as usual, very impressive. The conference was then organized. Rev. H. H. Jones was elected secretary for Sunday school convention and Miss Bernice Sanders for the conference; Rev. J. W. Sanders, reporter for church papers; Mrs. G. B. Holmes, reporter of Sunday school convention to church papers, and Rev. J. H. Brown, reporter to city papers; the finance committee, Revs. A. M. Ward, J. S. Payne and J. H. Brown. The following churches were represented: Shorter chapel, Campbell, and Ward's chapel, Denver; Allen chapel, Boulder, and Allen chapel, Cheyenne. Papers read on various subjects were all that could be hoped for from the point of intellect and reality. The pastors and friends of the various churches were in evidence throughout the session. Rev. G. B. Holmes, pastor of Allen chapel, Boulder, preached a very instructive sermon on Wednesday evening. Thursday was a very busy day, many interesting subjects were discussed. In the evening Rev. H. H. Jones, pastor, of Allen chapel of Cheyenne, Wyoming, was very instructive as well as spiritual in his sermon. The delegates and friends were well feasted at Campbell's new dining room. The session closed Friday, June 19th. The committee on resolutions was loud in their expressions of gratitude to the churches, pastors and friends of Denver for their hospitality. Many parts of the program was omitted on account of the absence of the pastors and their delegates. NOTICE OF FINAL SETTLEMENT. No. 10933. In the Matter of the estate of Emma M. Rector Dept.

Bean Croquettes.—Use one pint of white soup beans, one tablespoonful of vinegar, one tablespoonful of molasses, one tablespoonful of butter; salt and cayenne to taste. Boil the beans and when done press them through a colander, then add the other ingredients, mixed well, and stand away to cool. When cold form into small balls. Dip first in egg and then in bread crumbs and fry in boiling fat. Cheese Croquettes.—Use one-fourth cup butter, one-fourth cup flour, two-thirds cup milk, yolks of two eggs, one cup mild cheese cut in small pieces, one-half cup of milk cheese, grated, salt and pepper. Make a thick sauce of the first three ingredients and add yolks of eggs and stir well, then add cheese. As soon as grated cheese melts remove from the fire and season with salt and pepper. Spread in a shallow pan and cool. Turn on a board, cut in small squares or strips, dip in crumbs, egg and crumbs again, fry in deep fat, and drain on brown paper. Lobster Croquettes.—Use two cups of chopped lobster meat, one-half teaspoonful of mustard, three grains of cayenne, one teaspoonful of lemon, one cup of thick white sauce. Add seasoning to lobster. Then add thick white sauce. Cool, shape, dip in crumbs, egg, and crumbs again, fry in deep fat, and drain. Chicken Croquettes.—The breast of a roast fowl, two parts, of boiled tongue one part, and of truffles one part. Mince all these fine and mix them together. Melt a piece of butter in a saucepan, stir a little flour into it, then put in the above mixture and molten with a small quantity of stock. Add some finely minced parsley, pepper, salt and nutmeg to taste. Stir it on the fire for a few minutes, then stir in it, off the fire, the yolks of one or two eggs beaten up with the juice of a lemon and strained. Spread out this mince—which should be pretty stiff—on a marble slab, and when it is nearly cold fashion it into small portions in the shape of balls or cones. Dip each in beaten up egg and then roll it in fine baked bread crumbs. Repeat this operation after the lapse of an hour, and after a similar interval fry the croquettes in hot lard to a golden color. Serve on a napkin with plenty of fried parsley. MAKING SAUSAGE AT HOME. Carefully Prepared Ingredients Necessary for Success. Homemade Sausage.—There are many variations in making sausage, but only in the proportions of the ingredients used. Most of them require the use of young pork, a good combination being five pounds lean, including part tenderloin, with two pounds of fat pork. Mince thoroughly, putting through a meat grinder two or three times, then season, using to each pound of the chopped meat a heaping teaspoonful of powdered sage, a teaspoonful of salt and a third of a teaspoonful of pepper. Pack in jars or small cotton bags, and cover fully an inch thick with melted lard. Keep in cold storeroom. Oxford Sausage.—Use for these a pound each of finely chopped veal, pork and beef suet. Mix through this a quart of bread crumbs, the grated peel of a half lemon, a grated nutmeg, a sprig each of savory, thyme and sweet marjoram and a tablespoonful powdered sage leaves. Make in cakes and fry in a little hot butter. Against Carpet Moths. The following recipe is invaluable to cause the sure death of the carpet bug or Buffalo moth: One ounce of alum, one ounce of chloride of zinc, three ounces of salt. Mix with two quarts of water and let stand over night in a covered vessel. In the morning pour carefully in another vessel, so as to leave sediment behind. Dilute this with two quarts of water and apply by sprinkling the edges of the carpet for a distance of a foot from the wall. This is all that is necessary. They will leave anything that is sprinkled with this solution, which will not injure the texture or color. Cucumber Pickle. Pare and slice two dozen cucumbers and one dozen small onions. Sprinkle them with salt and allow them to drain well in a colander. Then place them in a bowl, adding one quart of vinegar, one cup of olive oil, one-quarter of a cup each of black and white mustard seed, one teaspoonful of celery seed and one-quarter teaspoonful of powdered alum. Mix thoroughly and seal in pint cans. Make Watch Pocket. Make a small pocket a little larger than the watch and sew on the inside of the skirt belt. Sew one side of the pocket flat on the belt. It is easy to slip the watch in and once there it cannot get lost. In thin summer dresses the pockets can be made of the same goods as dress and will never show. Scrambled Eggs in Biscuit Cases. Take baking powder biscuits and cut a circle through the top crust down through the middle; remove the crumb, butter the inside and fill when reheated with scrambled eggs. Scatter chopped parsley over the top.—Harper's Bazar. Tough Fowl Made Tender. To make a tough fowl tender add a pinch of baking soda to the water it is cooked in, while it is boiling. F.A.

VAST GLACIAL RIVERS TORRENTS FROM MELTING ICE DRAINED THROUGH GREAT LAKES TO THE STREAMS. OLD BOUNDARIES ARE TRACED Expert Wright Tells Where the Work of the Prehistoric Period Originated and Ended—Bodies of Water Enlarged. BY G. FREDERICK WRIGHT, A. M., LL. D. (Author of "The Ice Age in North America," "Man and the Glacial Period." Etc.) (Copyright, by Joseph B. Bowles.) Ice is a rock. At any rate, so long as it lasts it performs all the functions of rock. As one steams up the Yukon river he will often see ahead of him a forest growing upon a high bank with precipitous face which at first sight would seem to be the enduring rock of the region. But upon near approach it will turn out to be an ice cliff covered with a few feet of soil which has been washed out upon it in sufficient quantity to support vegetation. Large forests are growing upon the Malaspina glacier in Alaska, several miles back from its front, and where the ice is 1,000 feet thick under it. In numerous places in the vicinity of existing glaciers large streams of water may be found running both upon the surface of the ice and along a high elevation between the ice and the adjoining highland or mountain chain which hems it in. Large lakes of water are also found at high elevations where they are held in by ice barriers. Where these barriers suddenly burst through, as they sometimes do, tremendous floods of water devastate the valley below. The Mattmark See, in Switzerland, and other bodies of water held up behind alpine glaciers have been a menace. But great as are the direct effects upon the drainage, of ice of existing glaciers, those brought to light by study of the glacial period in North PULUTH DURK SUPER OR LOBE KEWESU ST. CROIX MISSISSIPPI RIVER Miles 0 30 60 CHICAGO ILLINOIS R Outlets for Glacial Torrents—Dotted America surpass them all in wonderful measure. Naturally the accumulation of ice during the glacial period began at the north, and early clogged up the great lines of drainage which lead in that direction, while, after the ice had reached its farthest limit and began to melt back, the northerly direction of the drainage could not be resumed until the ice had all melted away. Thus for long periods the drainage of the great lakes, which now passes down the St. Lawrence river, was turned over to swell the volume of the Susquehanna and the Ohio rivers, while all the drainage that now enters Hudson bay was turned over into the valley of the Missouri and the Mississippi. This, anyone can see from a slight study of the map, must have been the case. It has been a most interesting work to geologists to find these actual outlets of glacial drainage, and to trace the effects of this great addition of volume to the south-flowing streams of the north. In general the effects of this great increase of the volume of the water poured into the valleys of the connecticut, Hudson, Susquehanna, Allegheny, Ohio, Mississippi and Missouri rivers are evident in the extensive gravel terraces which line the.banks of all these streams and of their northern tributaries. The terraces of the Connecticut river have long been famous, consisting of deposits of gravel and sand rising upon either bank of the river from 50 to 100 feet or more above present high water mark. In the Hudson valley they exist as brick clays, extensively worked in various places above New York city, but spreading out into extensive gravel deposits where the Hudson river comes out from the Adirondack mountains. The sandy plains of Saratoga were spread out during that stage of the glacial period, while immense streams of water were turned over into the Hudson valley through Lake Champlain and Lake George. The Champlain canal has appropriated a portion of this glacial 1. channel, and passes from the lake to the Hudson river with a lockage of less than 50 feet. Before the ice had melted from the Mohawk valley there was an enormous amount of glacial drainage carried off through the Finger lakes and over the higher passes leading into the Susquehanna valley. The stream passing through Seneca lake over the site of Watkins and entering the susquehanna at Horseheads was specially noteworthy; while the marks of the glacial floods in the Susquehanna valley are clearly seen at Harrisburg and other places farther down. Before the ice had melted from central New York the drainage of the great lakes was held up to the level of the passes from Lake Erie and Lake Michigan leading over into the valley of the Mississippi. At first, before the ice had melted off from northern Michigan, where the lakes are united, there were several independent outlets. These can be easily traced from Lake Chautauqua down Conewango creek into the valley of the Allegheny, and down French creek to a similar destination, and from Grand river in Ohio into the Mahoning at Warrn, reaching the Ohio, through Beaver creek, 25 miles below Pittsburg. The Ohio river all the way down is lined with gravel terraces, frequently rising more than 100 feet above the river, which furnish building sites for the most of the cities along its course. Fourth street in Cincinnati is on one of these terraces, 120 feet above the river. As the ice was slowly retreating over the area occupied by Lake Erie back to the Niagara escarpment, the main outlet for the ever-increasing glacial lake was through an opening at Fort Wayne, Ind., leading into the Wabash river and thence into the Ohio. This outlet is 200 feet above the present level of the lake. Consequently the water submerged all the land on the south and west sides of the lake below that level. The shore line of this great body of water, to which the name Lake Warren has been given, can be easily traced for hundreds of miles, and, like that south of Lake Ontario, was early chosen for a highway and for building sites. Approaching each other from Ohio and Michigan, two gravel ridges come URENTIDE ICE-SHEET MICHIGAN LOBE SANGINW LOBE CHICAGO EPT. WAYNE WABASK R. MAUME Lines Show Present Lake Boundaries. nearly together at Fort Wayne, leaving there an opening from the Maumee into the Wabash river about a mile wide, revealing an abandoned river channel, which is still almost as distinct as when the mighty current of Niagara, made its exit to the sea. A similar abandoned channel exists southwest of Chicago, leading from Lake Michigan into the Illinois river. This too is about a mile in width, with level bottom and sharply outlined sides, through which the glacial drainage poured in even greater torrents than at Fort Wayne. For a while, however, it was merely the outlet of a limited lake at the south end of Lake Michigan. But as the ice retreated from the lower peninsula of Michigan it uncovered a channel from Saginaw bay into Lake Michigan 100 feet lower than that at Fort Wayne. Whereupon the water was diverted from that channel and all carried away by the Saginaw bay. Lake Michigan and Chicago river outlet. The shore line of the glacial lake formed at this stage of glacial recession can be traced as distinctly as a railroad embankment the entire distance from the vicinity of Buffalo around the south and west shores of Lake Erie to the head waters of Saginaw bay, where it opens by a perfectly distinct channel into Grand river. Euclid avenue, in the city of Cleveland, is built upon this shore line. The great drainage canal from Chicago into the Illinois has availed itself of this old outlet, the bottom of which was only about 15 feet higher than the level of Lake Michigan. Earlier glacial outlets farther west are clearly traceable from Green Bay into the Fox river and from the western end of Lake Superior at Duluth through the Chippewa river into the Mississippi, a little way below St Paul. The remarkable level gravel terraces high above the lake at Duluth, so convenient for streets and drives, are the shore lines of this temporary lake at the west end of Lake Superior.

Grant at a Memorial Day banquet, "is generally a fool. "They tell a story of a martinet of the Civil War, a captain. He got orders from headquarters that his men were to change their undershirts. "But Captain," said a sergeant to whom this order was communicated, 'the men have only one undershirt each.' The captain frowned, then he said: "No matter. Military commands must be obeyed. Let the men change undershirts with each other." The Duke and the Sirloin: "It is a mistake," said Otto E. Schaar, the president of the New York Waiters' club, "to think that an Englishman always wants his beef excessively rare. As a matter of fact the English like their beef better done than we do. "I once saw a waiter," he continued, "serve an English duke with a cut of very, very rare sirloin. "The duke looked closely at the slice of bright red meat. Then he said: "Waiter, just send for the butcher, will you?" "The butcher sir?' the waiter stammered. "Yes," said the duke. "This beef doesn't seem to be quite dead yet." A Good Guess. He: "I see fishhooks have been made on precisely the same designs for 2,000 years." She: "Well, fish lies haven't changed much in that time, either. I guess."

It has not been many years since the popular expressions in the east to denote remoteness and outlandishness were such place names as Oshkosh and Kalamazoo. Yet both these places are now hustling cities having a population of more than 25,000; and each is approximately as near the geographical center of population as Chicago and St. Louis. The standard expression to denote rural obscurity is "Podunk." Everybody has heard of Podunk; but where is it? There is no Podunk in the list of 62,000 federal post offices. The United States board on geographic names has thrown only a little light on the subject by decreeing recently as follows: "Quaboag; pond in Brookfield town, Worcester county, Massachusetts. Not North, nor Podunk." Is there a Podunk, anywhere?—Sunday Magazine. FULLY NOURISHED Grape-Nuts a Perfectly Balanced Food.

"For two years I have used Grape-Nuts with milk and a little cream, for breakfast. I am comfortably hungry for my dinner at noon. "I use little meat, plenty of vegetables and fruit in season, for the noon meal, and if tired at tea time, take Grape-Nuts alone and feel perfectly nourished. "Nerve and brain power, and memory are much improved since using Grape-Nuts. I am over sixty and weigh 155 lbs. My son and husband seeing how I have improved, are now using Grape-Nuts.

No Soup, No Dinner, the Rule Laid Down by Barney. Six years ago, when the king visited Dublin, some amusing incidents were recorded due to the grotesqueness of some hotel waiters apparently just fresh from rural life. One hotelkeeper told such a newly imported "server" that he must always serve every one with soup at dinner and be quite certain that he had it. Thereupon ensured the following scene between a visitor and the new waiter: "Soup, sir?" said Barney. "No soup for me," said the visitor. "But you must have it," said Barney: "it's the rules of the house." "Hang the house!" exclaimed the visitor, highly exasperated. "When I don't want soup I won't eat it. Get along with you!" "Well," said Barney, with solemnity, "all I can say is just this—it's the rules of the house and sorra a drop else ye'll get till ye finish the soup!" —London Telegraph. ECZEMA ALL OVER HIM. No Night's Rest for a Year and Limit of His Endurance Seemed Near —Owes Recovery to Cuticura. "My son Clyde was almost completely covered with eczema. Physicians treated him for nearly a year without helping him any. His head, face, and neck were covered with large scabs which he would rub until they fell off. Then blood and matter would run out and that would be worse. Friends coming to see him said that if he got well he would be disfigured for life. When it seemed as if he could possibly stand it no longer, I used some Cuticura Soap, Cuticura Ointment, and Cuticura Resolvent. That was the first night for nearly a year that he slept. In the morning there was a great change for the better. In about six weeks he was perfectly well. Our leading physician recommends Cuticura for eczema. Mrs. Algy Cockburn, Shiloh, O., June 11, 1907."

MAKE OVER LINEN Last Year's Costume Will Little Remodeling There is a good deal of enthusiasm lately over dumbbells among the girls who are always up on the latest for keeping one's self in good trim. They say that dumbbells are better than plain calisthenics without any apparatus, because they give you something definite to do. These girls have found it a great temptation in the ordinary exercises simply to wave the arms and legs about without any particular object. Dumbbell drills are better than raising chairs with one finger and standing-on-your-head stunts, because the average girl can do them, while she often loses her courage with the impossible exercises. In one boarding house in Boston, where a number of business girls live, there is a dumbbell brigade, which meets in one of the girls' rooms every night. Each girl comes in a kimono and armed with a pair of light-weight dumbbells. Then they go through a number of simple exercises, which one of the crowd, who used to be a college girl, learned in the gym. The girls all say that they are having a little trouble in refitting their clothing, as a result of their dumbbell drill, but they are wonderfully improved in figure and carriage since they began work some weeks ago. Their five exercises are worth knowing, especially to girls who are getting a bit round shouldered from bending over their desks all winter, so here they are: Stand erect with the right foot slightly in advance. Grasping the dumbbells firmly, stretch both arms up as high as possible. Breathe deeply. Rise on tiptoe if you can. Place the left hand with dumbbell against the waist. Raise right hand with dumbbell over the head. Bend the head and upper part of body to the right. Reverse the motions and repeat them several times. This exercise gives flexibility to the waist; also lengthens and tapers it. First, stand erect. Then bring the upper part of the body forward, the arms holding the dumbbells extended. Let the head drop forward. Inhale deeply. Then with slow exhalations all the while bring the body to an upright position. With dumbbells grasped tightly, stretch both arms upward horizontally. Bend the arms at the elbows, and bring the dumbbells back to the shoulders with a quick and very strong motion. Clutch the dumbbells tightly and bring them vigorously down against the waist. Then thrust both arms down, then out, then up with at least a dozen repetitions. After each movement, return the hands and dumbbells to the first position at the waist line. Of course, one should be careful to use only light dumbbells and to avoid the temptation to create knotty muscles.—Boston Herald. Pretty Lips. Pretty lips are harder to acquire than many other little points that women work for, but with a little hard work and patience they can be coaxed to come and then made to stay. In the first place, the lips must be made firm before steps are taken to make them red. Dashing ice cold water on the lips night and morning will make them healthy and firm, and this also goes a long way toward stimulating them and making them red. Painting the lips night and morning with rosewater and glycerin, half and half, will make them red and smooth. Brushing the lips once a day with a soft little brush does much to stimulate the flow of blood and beautify them. Cologne is good for the lips and perfumes them slightly. Ingrowing Nails An ingrowing nail may be readily cured by the use of peroxide of hydrogen. Apply it on a bit of antiseptic cotton twisted on the end of an orange wood. manicure stick. Insert the point of the stick as far under the nail as possible, then after carefully cutting the nail leave a bit of the moist cotton under it to keep it from the flesh. MAKE OVER LINEN SUIT. Last Year's Costume Will Do with a Little Remodeling. Have you a last year's summer suit of linen, white, tan, or colored, which needs remodeling? The styles of this year differ from those of last year by but a few points, which it is easy to change. The latest idea from Paris, and one which bids fair to take firm hold of the American fancy, is using colored cretonne for trimming. Just a touch of it is sufficient to change an old-style suit to one which is up to date and nobby. If your suit is a last summer's one, all you need, probably, is a new set of cuffs, with one of the new adjustable shawl collars which can be put on and taken off at will. Or, if the coat has a turndown collar and mannish revers, cut them off and finish the front and neck edges with bands of the cretonne, and if the skirt needs a new touch or freshening up, finish the lower edge with a band to match the coat. Probably the jacket of your linen suit happened to be short and loose, and has grown tight in the hips. If so, open up the seams and slash the coat, both front and back, to the depth of about six inches, and finish the lower edge of the coat with an inch wide band of colored linen and run the bands up along the edges where the coat has been slashed to finish them. The appearance of the coat may be improved by changing the buttons. Rip off the old buttons and buy some button molds. Cover with cretonne and sew on to the coat. Buttons are sewed to dresses, coats and skirts not only where they are needed, but also where they are not needed, and where they simply serve as a trimming. GIRL'S DRESSING GOWN. 1 Dressing gown material of any description would make up in this style; pale blue Viyella is chosen here; it is trimmed with embroidered strips of the same. The effect is that of a kimono, but the sleeves are sewn in just under the outer tuck, which stands out over the top of the sleeve. Material required: Four yards Viyella 36 inches wide. New Colors in Batistes The all white lingerie frock is of course the most practical of dainty and elaborate cotton frocks for summer, but while last year white and even batistes had things their own way, this season a host of fashionable colorings are displayed in batistes and kindred materials and not only the delicate blues and pinks but the deeper tones, such as raspberry, Copperhagen blue and smoke gray are made up in batiste and lawn.

Denver, Colo AROUND THE HOUSE CHAT ABOUT MATTERS OF GENERAL INTEREST. Proper Adjustment of Furniture Curtains—Easy Way to Move Mattresses—Easy Method of Renewing Worn Gas Mantles. For Heavy Mattress.—To carry a heavy mattress on the porch to air, take the straps of old suspenders and put one loop on each side. Two people can then handle it with ease. Dandelion Wine.—Two quarts of dandelion bloom, four quarts of well water. Boil 20 minutes. Pour hot liquid over two sliced lemons. Let get cold. Mix one yeast foam; let stand 48 hours. Strain. Add four pounds of A sugar. Add to above mixture. Let stand six weeks. Furniture Curtains.—Don't hesitate to launder the curtains on your homemade furniture for lack of time to replace broken drawstrings. Make curtains in the usual way, finish top edge with one-half-inch band or beading, as one prefers. If with beading, stay underneath with one-half-inch strip. Sew hooks firmly at back edge of band five or six inches apart, so that point of hook comes within one-quarter inch of top edge of band. Then with two small tacks to each eye tack them on the piece of furniture same distance apart as hooks on curtain. Now hook your curtain on. Easy to remove or adjust. Clothesline Moves Mattresses.—In cleaning house one of the hardest tasks is moving the cumbersome mattresses, not so much because of their weight, but on account of the difficulty in getting hold of the unwieldy things. Just try roping them with a clothesline and see how it simplifies matters. Put a rope around, bookstrap fashion, knotting in such a way that you have rope handles to get hold of, and then see how easily the mattress can be moved. For Gas Users.—When a gas mantle begins to turn black, sprinkle a little salt on it with a salt shaker and light, and the black part will burn off and become white again. If the mantle has become too black it will be necessary to lift it off carefully and remove the black from stem of burner, replace mantle, douse on a little salt and it will come out pure white again. Iodine Stains.—To remove iodine from any material, soak the spot in sweet milk for several hours, then lay it in the sun. Repeat this until spot disappears. Circles left by the milk easily can be removed by washing in warm water and some good soap. The Pineapple. This delicacy would be prepared more often if it were less tedious to pare, core and slice. Few use sliced pineapple these days, since the food chopper has been brought into so much use and makes this rather coarse-fibered fruit more palatable. Use a sharp bread knife to cut the pineapple in quarters. Pare each section and remove the eyes and bits of hull with a penknife. Really nothing takes the place of a sharp penknife for the purpose, not even the latest improved pineapple knife, for it takes out too large pieces. Next cut the quarters into small sections and run them through the food chopper and add sugar immediately to extract juice. Unless a pineapple is prepared early in the day it will be almost as insipid for dinner as a winter pear, the most tasteless fruit there is. Comforts. One cupful sugar and two eggs beaten together, one-half teaspoonful salt, one cupful sweet milk, three cupfuls flour, one teaspoonful baking powder. Have ready a deep pan of hot lard and dip in a tablespoonful at a time, as if frying doughnuts. Dip your spoon in hot lard first and the mixture will not stick to the spoon. When brown on one side they will turn over. Fry brown and lay on paper to drain. Do not put too many in at once, as they must have room to turn over. Dandelion Wine. Two quarts dandelion blossoms free from stems, four quarts of boiling water poured over them; let stand three days, stirring each day; strain and add five pounds sugar, three oranges and three lemons sliced thin, one yeast cake; let stand three days longer and then skim out the fruit and let stand four weeks; strain through cheese cloth; add one-half pint of whisky and put three raisins in each bottle; seal airtight. Apple Fluff. Take three eggs, separate the whites and yolks, putting the whites in a cool place. With the three yolks mix three cups of of milk and three tablespoonfuls of sugar. Cook to a thin custard, flavor with vanilla, and set aside to cool. Grate three apples, covering with sugar as you work, so they don't turn dark. Put on the whites of the eggs and beat half an hour. When done put in a dish and turn custard over it. Plum Loaf. When your bread is ready for the baking tins take out enough for one loaf, roll out thin, sprinkle thickly with sugar, roll out two or three times this way and work in a cupful of raisins. Then bake as usual. See if this isn't good. A Good Dust Collector. Bits of damp newspaper or soft brown paper strewn about a room before sweeping will collect loose dust while sweeping and prevent it from spreading.
