The only Negro Of term appears to be H WASHINGTON LETTER Washington Daily Papers Speak in Complimentary terms of the Concert given by the Philippine Constabulary Band, in Convention Hall. The only Negro Office-holder Slated for another term appears to be Hon. William T. Vernon. BY JAMES CUBERT CAMPBELL Now and then it is that the daily papers of Washington forget themselves long enough to make mention, in complimentary terms, of some laudable achievement of the Negro, but generally there must be extraordinary cause for this sense of duty. Illustration, however, of the possibility of credit being occasionally given occured during the past week and the extraordinary cause was the rendering of the highest class of music by the Philippine Constabulary Band under the direction of Capt. Walter Lovering. At a concert given in Convention Hall on the night of April 9th, in which the S. Coleridge Taylor Choral Society assisted with several selections, this musical organization simply thrilled the audience of two thousand people gathered there with its rendition of popular airs and the most classical music, and the press on the day after was simply teeming with words of praise. Nevertheless it must not go unnoticed, despite the fact of the incident being totally ignored by the white press, that Capt. Lovering and his band also played before the President and a distinguished audience a night or two previous in the East Room of the White House, and to the intense delight of Mr. Taft and his specially selected friends. The President was extremely forceful in his praise, expressing himself in no uncertain terms as to what he thought of the noted musical organization, and before bidding them adieu he shook the hand of every member of the band and wished them further successes. Speaking of the Philippine Contabulary Band, it might be cited, however, that "All is not gold that glitters," and that while Capt. Lovering and his musicians have been delighting the hearts of those fortunate enough to hear their music, the financial end of the enterprise of bringing this band to Washington during inaugural week has been trying to find the right string to pull which will compensate it for the trip here. Apparently some government red tape has gotten mixed up with Uucle Sam's purse strings, and the inadvertant pulling of the former has resulted in producing but $660 of the $5,000 promised by the VOL. XV. Inaugural committee with the result that much inconvenience has been caused thereby. The fact of this shortage in the financial department of this endeavor may be better appreciated when it is understood that the expense incident to the carrying on this band overland to Washington was considerable, owing to the enforcement of the interstate commerce law, which precluded reduce rate transportation. The band is to return to the Philippines by next September, and it is sincerely hoped that long before that time shall have arrived the depleted treasury of this organization will have been attened to. President Taft has, as yet, indicated only a few of his selections among the many aspirants for political recognition at his hands, and, to use the language of the street, "Things are still in the air." All manner of rumors continue to be circulated, but occasionally some well authenticated statement may be relied upon, and the articles appearing in one of the evening papers, which paper is considered the "mouth-piece" of the Administration, no doubt gives a correct line on the Treasury department at least. The only Negro office holder undoubtedly slated for another term, appears to be Hon. W. T. Vernon, the article going on to say: "There is not the slightest indication that he is to be disturbed." There is but one conclusion to draw from this, and that is that the present Register of the Treasury has given complete satisfaction. It would seem as if there is to be no further change in the makeup of the Liberian Commission, the members now composing it being M. Morgan Schuster, of the District of Columbia; Emmett J. Scott, confidential secretary to Dr. Booker T. Washington; and Dr. George Sale, of Georgia. A more competent trio of representatives could hardly have been selected as all are well versed in public affairs and particularly interested in the insular possessions of the United States, especially in the uplift of the struggling Republic of Liberia. It is earnestly hoped that the rec- State Hist & Nut Hist Society State House tronizing RADO THE JOURNAL DENVER. onizing Tho ADO E JOURNAL DENVER, COLORADO, DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, APRIL 24, 1909. ommendations of this Commission will be given the closest consideration on its return and that the needs of this Negro government on the shores of Africa will be properly attended to. The Commission leaves sometime after the 15th instant, going direct to Monrovia via the Cape Verde Islands, and will return in adout two months time. RACE NEWS GATHERED FROM VARIOUS SOURCES Tallahassee, Fla., April 12.—Senator William today introduced a bill prohibiting the attendance of blacks at white gatherings and vice versa. Winston-Salem, N. C., April 15.—An 11-year-old colored girl of Dillard, Stokes county, yesterday gave birth to an eight-pound well-developed girl baby. The father is said to be only 13 years of age. Chicago, Ill., March 12.—By the will of the late Nelson B. Holden, John Leatham, colored, who had been in the personal service of Mr. Holden for fifteen years, and who was picked up in a cotton field while the shoe merchant was making a trip through the Southern States, gets a present of $5,000 James R. Thompson, who recently opened a five and ten cent store at New York, is succeeding admirably. It is a new business venture among Afro-Americans, and its progress will be watched with unusual interest by all classes in the upper section of the city, where there are hundreds of similar stores among the foreign element. The key to success is well put by N. B. Dodson, who said recently that "by persistence alone can we hope to overcome all obstacles." Wilberforce, Ohio., April 13.—Andrew Carnegie has promised Wilberforce University $17,500 for a new dormitory building for the young women, providing the university raises an equal amount, the building to cost $35,000. President W. S. Scarborough is working assiduously to raise the necessary amount, as he expects to begin work on the building in the early fall. New York, April 17.—A verbal agreement for a match between Jack Johnson, the world's heavyweight champion, and Al Kaufman of San Francisco was entered into here today between Johnson and Billy Delaney, representing Kaufman. The fight is to take place when Johnson returns from England and before the Johnson- --- --- Ketchel fight. Johnson will sail for that country on May 25 and expects to return about September 1. No articles were signed and Johnson posted no money. Delaney, in behalf of Kaufman, deposited $5,000 to cover any forfeit money that might be put up by Johnson. Chicago, April 9.—Nine hun- and ninety-nine dollars and ninety nine cents was awarded John Graham, colored, by a jury in Judge Fake's court in a suit in which he asked $1,000 damages from the Dr. Pratt Facial institute, and Dr. C. C. Coates, 214 State street. Graham, who at present lives in St. Louis, was formerly employed as a porter in a downtown hotel, and in February, 1908 he went to the Pratt institute to have smallpox pits removed from his face. He testified that the pits were not removed, but that the color of his face was changed from an even black to a spotted black mixed with maroon. Spellman, Ga.. April 11.—Attacked by four masked night riders who had invaded his home, Alfred Iverson, a Negro, killed one of his assailants and wounded another before he was shot to death yesterday. Iverson had trouble with a white man about business and had been warned to leave the country. He refused to go and yesterday four masked men broke into his home. After the fight the wife of the Negro was mercilessly whipped. The woman notified the neighbors and Iverson's body was found in the home, also a part of the head of the slain white man. The nighi riders removed the body of their dead comrade and also their wounded friend. New Orleans, La., April 20. Incensed because his stepmother had left him at home near Opelousas, La, in charge of his young stepbrothers and sisters for the day, Tom Godfrey, a 12 year old Negro boy, fed the youngest of his charges to the hogs and later with an ax, inflicted what probably will prove fatal wounds on the heads of the other children. Three children were injured. Tom was placed in jail at Opelousas. The baby's hands and feet had been eaten off by the hogs when found, but it was still alive. The stepmother straightway whipped Tom and when she went for a doctor to attend the baby, Tom seized the ax and attacked his 6-year-old stepbrother, inflicting several deep wounds. His young stepsister interfered and he crushed her skull with the ax. The girl is dying and the other two children have little chance for recovery. Makes a Good Soldier.

D, D. Rivers, Denver, Colo. Dear friend: I want to write you something about our country. Many people are moving here now, and we think it is a good country to come to. One thing sure, we do not have any thunder storms or cyclones to scare us nearly to death nor to damage the property. In and about Boise here the thermometer seldom gets anywhere near zero, our coldest weather this last winter being nine degrees above, while every other place had a hard winter. We had only a few inches of snow at any time, and it stayed no longer than two days. Boise has not had zero weather for five or six years. We have very little winds right here in Boise. Even now in March we are enjoying good weather. So far this month we have had only about four days that the wind has been noticeable, and at no time enough to bother anyone. There is no such thing as buttoning up the coat, tightly clasping the hat on the head, and lunging forward with all one's strength against the raw March winds. The soil is the poorest looking stuff and yet it is wonderful what it produces. Where it has not been cultivated it grows scarcely anything, but sagebrush and rabbits, but with the system of irrigation and cultivation here, they raise large crops of all kinds of grains, sugar beets, grasses, hay and fruits, and the prettiest fruits in the world. After an alfalfa sod has been turned under, they raise as high as 80 to 100 bushels of oats, 60 to 80 bushels of barley and as high as 60 bushels of wheat. These are not big stories told just to create wonder, but are actual facts we know to be true. There is no danger of wearing the soil out, as it keeps continually rebuilding with the rotating of crops. The fruits are very fine, and two crops of strawberries are raised yearly by trimming the vines immediately after the first crop and letting the ground get quite dry. The fall crop of strawberries is about half as large as the first and brings good prices, as high as 25 cents a box. Apples never fail entirely and usually make a very large crop, though sometimes late frosts cut them short. This is so seldom that it is not to be recoked on. Peaches make a god crop almost every year, though are not so sure as apples. Dairying is a successful business here as alfalfa makes always a big crop. And we have no bleak winter winds or pelting storms like they do in the East. The grade of dairy cows is very poor, but even the ordinary cows bring returns of $6.00 to $12.00 per month. Pork raising is bound to be a great success because of the great value of alfalfa as a hog grower. We raise but a very small portion of the pork now consumed here. Poultry products always bring good prices and are in great demand. The climate is peculiarly favorable for it. The land right around or near Boise has been taken up and farmed several years, but there are new ir- NO.31 rigation enterprises on the way all the time. About four years-ago one Carey Act tract of about 300,000 acres of land was thrown open, and that vast sage brush plain is one large continuous farming district, nearly every bit under cultivation, some nice homes, many young apple orchards, several good towns, one of about 7,000 people, fine brick and stone buildings in a large brand new bustling town that promises to double its present size within two years. The fact of these large towns is no surprise. There is so much business created in all these new farming districts that towns must be of some size to attend to it. Many people have become well-to-do by buying cheap lots and taking the raise. Land on one tract of 30,000 acres opened a few years ago, is now selling as high as $200 per acre for the bare land, and will be worth as high as $1,000 per acre as son as in peach bearing orchards. Another tract of 10,000 acres east of us is just developing. Another northeast with about the same amount. Boise Payette projects of about 30,000 acres. Another to the southeast with about 20,000 acres, and several other smaller tracts are just developing. Added to all these there is now under way what is termed the Bruneau project of 650,000 acres, which should be opened for settlement within a year. And several large tracts lie open with feasible water storage reservoir sites, and which will shortly become homes of plenty for thousands of people. All these tracts lie contiguous and contributory to Boise. Towns will spring up and put your old slow Eastern towns on the back list, but the large business will keep coming to Boise, and your imagination may expand beyond what you would now consider reasonable and you will still fall short of the future Boise. Boise is a pereptual surprise to every new comer. Mr. Kennedy of the Associated Press, pronounced Boise the finest town in the United States. The population is now 25,000, but its up-to-date appearance and business houses give indications of a 50,000 city. It is the capitol and metropolis of what is becoming a great state, and by reason of its location and prestige its future is secure. Pioneering is nothing like the ordinary, for railroad shipping facilities are already at hand, and instead of waiting years for a settlement and neighbors, in a very few years you are living and thriftily so, among heavy settlements of well-to-do people. You must not forget that but very few bodies of land remain in the United States for its citizens, and you must do something quick or be left. It is peculiarly fortunate that the most favorable remained for the last. All these tracts are contiguous and contributory to Boise. My personal interest in you, and the many valuable advantages offered everyone here has prompted me to write you, and I want you to think quick and come out here and see our country. Very truly yours, LUTHER H. CRAVEN. P. S.—I overlooked to mention that we have many churches, fine ones, and with strong membership and attendance, and that our western schools can give you Easterners advance ideas. About the first thing to go up is a school and a church. AN EPITOME OF LATE LIVE NEWS CONDENSED RECORD OF THE PROGRESS OF EVENTS AT HOME AND ABROAD.

Other kinds of accidents bring the total number 793 killed and 16,846 injured. This shows a decrease of 2,814 as compared with a year ago. NEW TRACKS OF UNION PACIFIC WORK OF DOUBLE-TRACKING IN PROGRESS BETWEEN DENVER AND GREELEY. PUSHING BRANCH LINES HEAVY FORCE OF MEN CON STRUCTING DENVER-FORT COLLINS LINE. Denver.—The Republican Thursday morning says: By the end of the summer the Union Pacific will have parallel tracks, amounting virtually to a double track, between this city and Greeley, a distance of fifty-five miles, in traversing which the road passes through what is conceded to be the richest pieces of agricultural land in the world. The cost of the new parallel line, which is being pushed north from Sand Creek, will be $2,000,000. It is made necessary by the heavy and constantly growing traffic between this city and Greeley, there being twenty-four passenger trains and eighteen freights between the two points daily. General Superintendent W. L. Park of the Union Pacific was in Denver yesterday and announced that rapid progress is being made in building the branch lines of the company out of Greeley to Crow Creek and Pleasant Valley. The distance is twenty-five miles on each line and 1,000 men and 600 teams are at work on the two projects. Work on the Denver-Fort Collins line is progressing rapidly, there being 600 men and 300 teams at Sand Creek camp, near the point where the line will start northwest from the main line of the Union Pacific to Cheyenne. The complete reorganization of all Harriman lines in the West may be the result of Superintendent Park's present tour of inspection. He was recently empowered by President Harriman to make any changes in officials or systems of operating, being independent of all vice presidents and general managers. He is regarded as the leading operating man in the Harriman employ. He will proceed as far West as Ogden before returning to Omaha. He was accompanied over the lines in Colorado north of Denver by Local General Agent J. A. Ferguson. Agricultural College Committees Denver.—President A. A.

Let Me Tell You Something A woman who is sick and suffering, and won't at least try a medicine which has the record of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, is to blame for her own wretched condition. There are literally hundreds of thousands of women in the United States who have been benefited by this famous old remedy, which was produced from roots and herbs over thirty years ago by a woman to relieve woman's suffering. For 30 years Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound has been the standard remedy for female ills. No sick woman does justice to herself who will not try this famous medicine. Made exclusively from roots and herbs, and has thousands of cures to its credit. If the slightest trouble appears which you do not understand, write to Mrs. Pinkham at Lynn, Mass., for her advice—it is free and always helpful. Grief That Kills.

BABY'S WATERY ECZEMA Itched and Scratched Until Blood Ran —$50 Spent on Useless Treatments —Disease Seemed Incurable. Cured by Cuticura for $1.50. "When my little boy was two and a half months old he broke out on both cheeks with eczema. It was the itchy, watery kind and we had to keep his little hands wrapped up all the time, and if he would happen to get them uncovered he would claw his face till the blood streamed down on his clothing. We called in a physician at once, but he gave an ointment which was so severe that my babe would scream when it was put on. We changed doctors and medicine until we had spent fifty dollars or more and baby was getting worse. I was so worn out watching and caring for him night and day that I almost felt sure the disease was incurable. But finally reading of the good results of the Cuticura Remedies, I determined to try them. I can truthfully say I was more than surprised, for I bought only a dollar and a half's worth of the Cuticura Remedies (Cuticura Soap, Ointment and Pills), and they did more good than all my doctors' medicines I had tried, and in fact entirely cured him.

Prof. William Lyon Phelps of Yale went to West Point last fall to lecture. He was lecturing in the chapel, the cadets were rigidly paying attention, erect, eyes front, each man a ramrod of military etiquette. An Irish setter entered the chapel door and ambled sniffily down the aisle and up on to the platform. The cadets squirmed under the eagle eyes of their officers but not a man smiled. "Billy" noticed the strain. He looked down at the dog wagging its tail benevolently on the rostrum. "What! How's this?" said Prof. Phelps. "A setter? Why, I expected to see nothing but West Pointers up here."—Yale Alumni Weekly. Perfectly. Beckless. The members of the church voted that their dearly-beloved and devoted pastor should have a vacation, and so he decided that he would visit a brother-worker in the neighboring village.

The wireless method has been tried on the Lake Shore line, and the managers declare that the test, so far as it has gone, was eminently successful. They are highly enthusiastic and assert belief that by the use of the system accidents may be eliminated as far as it is in human power to accomplish such a result. The managers may be oversanguine, but additional experiments in this direction certainly will be awaited with interest. Wireless telegraphy has proved a life-saver at sea. If equally successful on shore there will be great gain to humanity. PAVEMENT PHILOSOPHY. Some people take the escalator and still walk up.

PROMINENT SPEAKERS PRESS ASSOCIATION ONE OF THE GREAT FACTORS OF CIVILIZATION AND PEACE. New York.—Six hundred editors and publishers from all parts of the country Thursday night attended the joint banquet of the American Newspaper Publishers' Association at the Waldorf Astoria. Count Johann Heinrich von Bernstorff, the German ambassador, and Joseph H. Choate, were guests of honor and delivered speeches appreciative of the work of the press. Other speakers were Major John C. C. Hemphill of the Charleston News and Courier, Rev. Robert Burdett of Los Angeles, and former Senator T. M. Patterson of Colorado. After the dinner Frank B. Noyes of the Associated Press presented Major Hemphill as the toastmaster of the evening. A toast was drunk to the President of the United States. Major Hemphill spoke of the organization whose members joined at the festive board as "the greatest and most powerful newspaper association in the world. Here are the publishers who make the money and the editors who spend it, mingling upon apparently friendly terms, while the common people pass by on the outside, utterly oblivious of our real importance in the great American economy. In explaining the absence of Speaker Cannon, Major Hemphill said the speaker could not be present on account of pressure of business. "It will do no harm, however," said the toastmaster, "to say behind his back what would have been said to his face: that he was never right in his life; that he made a bad start; he was born in North Carolina, the home of Mecklenburg Myth which President Taft is to celebrate next month, I am sorry to say. But as if that were not sufficient handicap, he emigrated before he had reached the years of discretion, which, by the way he has not yet attained." Mr. Choate evoked applause by taking the manager of the Associated Press to task for neglecting to have a correspondent in the wilds of Africa to inform an anxious world of the result of "that first encounter when the great lions quail before the great lion hunter." Adopting a more serious tone, he reviewed the changes which he himself witnessed in the manner and method of gathering and transmitting news, and paid a glowing tribute to the Associated Press. "It has been," he declared, "one of the great factors of education, of civilization and of peace, and what is more, it has brought the corners of the globe together. It has created an international sympathy in which we stand closely and warmly related to all the nations of the earth." Rev. Robert J. Burdette of Los Angeles delivered a characteristically humorous speech detailing his experience as an editor of the past generation. Sultan May Be Deposed. The formality of the Sheikh Ul Islam's decision is, however, indispensable. It is reported from Yildiz Kiosk that recent events have made a profound impression on the Sultan, who was seized with cerebral troubles Thursday morning. His favorite son, Burnhar-Ed-Din, who is accused of being the principal instigator of the last revolution, has been threatened by the Sultan that he would be handed over to the Young Turk committee, and has fled from Yildiz Kiosk. Storm Endangers Big Herd. Laramie, Wyo.—William Marr of Walden, Colo., is marooned on the road to the Laramie valley with about 1,500 cattle, in an effort to get the stock to grass, and as a consequence the animals are dying by hundreds. Feed had given out in the park, and as snow ranging from four to eight feet deep prevented Marr from getting feed in, he started out with the cattle. Cows are calving, and in many instances both mother and calf die without getting to their feet. Marr is fearful of losing the whole herd. Berlin.—A dispatch from Saloniki gives a report from Monastir that 1,500 Albanians have revolted, terrorizing the district and killing their colonel, a large number of Young Turk officers and the mayor. Advices from Uskup, 100 miles from Saloniki, says the rising has spread throughout the whole of northern Macedonia. Eight thousand armed Albanians have overawed the small bodies of troops, and Christian families are fleeing. Crowds are taking refuge in the Greek and Servian consulates. COLORADO ITEMS The state fair directors at a recent meeting in Pueblo elected Robert Higgins president and S. F. Reno secretary. Company H, Colorado National guard has organized a baseball team at Brush and will play a series of games with other teams of eastern Colorado. A pie company in Denver has installed an expensive motor-driven delivery wagon, dispensing with the services of six horses. M. Craffey has begun the erection in Denver of the largest broom factory west of the Missouri river, representing an investment of $30,000. Leadville bakers held a conference and decided to raise the price of bread from four loaves for a quarter to three loaves for a quarter, owing to the increased price of flour. George K. Hart, a Rio Grande engineer, has brought suit at Pueblo for $25,000 damages against the road for injuries he alleges he received in August, 1907, on the Celtic branch. At a special election April 20th Hugo voted for incorporation by a majority of 61. Hugo will be the first and only incorporated town in Lincoln county since its organization, twenty years ago. A memorial has been received from the Democrats and citizens of La Plata county by Governor Shafroth, deploring and regretting the failure of the last Legislative Assembly to pass the Democratic platform measures and petitioning him to call an extra session. State Printing Commissioner George Hosmer announces that the bill for printing during the last legislative session amounted to $29,133.27. It cost $1,632 to print the report of the Barela-Beshoar contest. The largest item in the bill was $3,320, for 1,000 ready-reference files. Practically every member of the Colorado City Council, including the mayor, is a veritable giant. Mayor T. D. Armstrong is more than six feet tall, Alderman Greence stands six feet one inch in his stocking teet, Alderman Sheetz is another six-footer, and Alderman Thrasher weighs 235 pounds. Twenty-five thousand dollars will be offered for prizes by the Chamber of Commerce of Denver and other commercial bodies for the Colorado National Apple Exhibition to be held in the Auditorium from December 6th to 12th, according to Secretary Clinton L. Oliver of the Colorado State Horticultural Society. An order sent out by the Grand Army of the Republic has set aside May 9th as White Carnation day. On that Sunday each member of the organization will wear the flower in memory of the mothers who bore their part in the great Civil War. Mothers' memorial services will be held in many churches of the state. The University of Denver has completed arrengements for two important football games next fall; namely, with the University of Nebraska, which will be played in Denver Saturday, November 20, instead of Saturday, November 13 as was previously announced, and with Colordao College on Thanks-giving day, the same as last season. Never in the history of northern Colorado was there as much snow in the foothills as now. Irrigationists who have been investigating the depth say streams will run bank-full by early summer, and fill every reservoir in the entire region. In Estes Park and at the headwaters of the Poudre snow is banked five to ten feet deep in the foothills and farther back it is twenty to thirty feet deep. The interior department has withdrawn from entry as homestead or desert claims all land in township 1 to 10 north, in ranges 64 to 69 west, something like forty-eight townships, taking in a considerable part of Weld county. The land is withdrawn on account of alleged coal and oil discoveries. The restrictions may be removed or made permanent, according to the results of the government investigation now under way. The State Land Board at its meeting April 21st declined to donate 300 acres of state land to the Toltec Canal Company, which had been appropriated by the company's predecessor, the old Taos Valley Irrigation Company. The board informed Mr. Clark, attorney for the company, that his company would probably be to pay at least $10 an acre for the land, and in addition guarantee water to settlers on state land at a fixed low charge. A delegation of Durango business men recently called upon General Manager Schlacks of the Denver & Rio Grande and discussed the passenger and freight situation. They asked that the company give Durango better service, saying that during the summer the narrow-gauge road is unable to handle the traffic. Mr. Schlacks promised to investigate and said that by June 15th narrow-gauge locomotives would be running between Durango and Alamosa. Beginning this spring the Humane society is to carry on active work in the education of children regarding the treatment of dumb animals, and W. R. Callicotte of Glenwood Springs has been appointed an agent of the society especially for the purpose. Mr. Callicotte will travel through the state on visits to the various schools where he will give lectures upon the subject. Governor Shafroth has appointed Harry A. Pettee of Holly, water commissioner for irrigation district No. 67, and Samuel Tilden Curtis, of Beulah, water commissioner of irrigation district No. 15. 中 [Picture of a woman in profile, wearing a dark coat and a white cravat.] PHONE MAIN 3044.

Sanderline, one of the pioneer colored men of Denver, died at his home, 1359 Pecos street, Thursday night, April 15th, of pneumonia, after a short illness. Mr. Sanderline was born in Memphis, Tenn., in 1832, and moved to this city in 1859. He opened the second barber shop here, and is well remembered by the old settlers. At one time Mr. Sanderline was the owner of much valuable real estate and kept his family in affluent circumstances, but the panic of '93 and unfortunate investments caused him to lose his valuable holdings and at the time of his death he was comparatively a poor man. At one time his holdings were valued at $160,000. Mr. Sanderline was buried Sunday afternoon from Miller's undertaking establishment. He is survived by two children, Mrs. Clara Peoples of Seattle, Wash., and William E. Sanderlin of this city, and by several grandchildren and a host of sorrowing friends. WARD'S CHAPEL RALLY.

DISTRICT AND TOWNSITE MEETING. In pursuance of a call meeting of the subscribers to the capital stock of the Negro District and Townsite Company was held at Shorter's A. M. E.

I also see that some of the Denver papers are opposing the coming of this regiment to Fort Logan. I am very sorry for this and I feel sure that you will use your good offices to overcome this opposition. The Twenty-fifth Infantry has made a splendid record in the Philippines. Last year they took the first honors in the Department of Mindanao, at the Department Meet. They then went to Manila, and took third place in the Division Meet. This year at the Department Meet our baseball team took first place and our athletes won every event except two. At the Division Meet at Manila this year our Department won second place and out of the 39 points won by the Department of Mindanao 31 of them were won by members of the Twenty-fifth Infantry. One of our men, George Washington by name, of Company "K," won the cup and medal for the all-round athletic championship of the Philippine Islands. He went to the Carnival, immediately following the Division Military Meet, where he competed with athletes from all over the Orient. The champion was an Australian, but Washington won the all-championship medal over him and became the champion athlete for the Orient. He won in all, this year, eight medals and one cup. The Twenty-fifth Infantry has been engaged in several expeditions against the Moros, the most warlike of the Philippine tribes in all of which they made an excellent record. I know the Twenty-fifth and I know the citizens of Denver, both colored and white, and I am sure that no one need feel ashamed of the Twenty-fifth Infantry, but, on the other hand, I am confident that it will not be long, if the Twenty-fifth does come to Denver, before all will have a good word to speak for the regiment. Mrs. Scott joins me in kindest regards to yourself and Mrs. Rivers and to all our good friends in Denver. Let me have a line from you when convenient. I am, very sincerely, Oscar J. W. Scott, Chaplain Twenty-fifth Infantry, U. S. Army. NOTICE OF STOCKHOLDERS' MEETING. Denver, Colo., April 10, 1909. To the Stockholders of the Western Deliver, Colo., April 10, 1909.

NEWS FROM THE CAPITAL No Press Agent Now at the White House Gen. Corbin Buys Cow for Mrs. Taft Mrs. Champ Clark Aid to Her Husband Size of Families Is on the Decrease Size of Families Is on the Decrease WASHINGTON.—In the giving out of the news at the White House perhaps the most striking departure from the Roosevelt methods has been shown since March 4. The day of the "fair-haired boy," as the Roosevelt newspaper favorites were locally (and perhaps enviously) known, has passed. There are no press agents of the administration, or if there are they do not appear as such at the White House. Mr. Taft had not been president very long before he announced that he would cease seeing newspaper representatives with the same freedom they had been accustomed to at the White House. The first version of this was that when he had anything to communicate to the newspapers he would send for representatives and talk to them, but that at other times he did not care to see them. Either this was not his position or he soon modified it. Now the practice is to see newspaper representatives by appointment, and when the interview is sought the president requires that the subject of it shall be stated. This gives him an opportunity to de- SINCE Mrs. Taft became the owner of a Jersey cow she has been re receiving hundreds of letters. Meanwhile "Bossy" is giving a generous quantity of rich milk, wholly unconscious of what a stir she has created. Many of Mrs. Taft's correspondents are housewives who offer her various suggestions as to butter-making, how to produce the most palatable cottage cheese, etc. Mrs. Taft is glad to receive letters like these, for she knows they spring from no mercenary purpose. The most persistent of the correspondents, however, are cattle breeders who see what a great advertisement it would be for them if they could have their special herds represented on the big lot back of the White House. Such communications get no consideration. If all of them were answered to the satisfaction of the senders the big elliptical pasture back of the president's home would soon look like a wild west cattle ranch. The story of the purchase and de- ONE of the most frequent visitors to the members' gallery of the house of representatives in Washington since the convening of the extraordinary session of congress is Mrs. Champ Clark, wife of the minority leader, on whom the eyes of the country are turned during this his first experience as chief of his party in the house. It is true the leadership was turned over by John Sharp Williams during the second half of the last session, but the former leader kept a close surveillance over his successor. Now Mr. Clark is responsible for himself and his management of Democratic affairs on the floor of the house is a matter of deep concern to his wife, who, like most congressmen's wives, takes the THE size of the average family in the United States has decreased from 5.8 persons in 1790, the date of the first census, to 4.6 in the same area in 1900, according to a volume being prepared by the census bureau at Washington. Of especial interest from a sociological point are statistics of family life. In 1790 families composed of no more than three persons represented only one-fourth of the entire number of families, while in 1900 families of similar size made up nearly 40 per cent. of all families. Families composed of six or more persons represented in 1790 more than one-half, but in 1900 cline to take up subjects he is not ready or willing to discuss. In application, however, there is a good deal of latitude. After the subject mentioned is disposed of the president talks about various matters brought up by himself or his visitor. President Taft has an intimate personal acquaintance with nearly all the newspaper correspondents in Washington. He calls them by their first names and by nicknames. He knows their families and friends. With those in whose discretion he has confidence he chats in the same jolly, frank way as of old—with this difference: the visitor is made to feel that he must not take professional liberties. Mr. Taft does not want himself or the White House written up as a show. On account of his personal intimacy with the newspaper men he did not adhere to his original plan of confining them to very formal interviews, but this concession does not mean "making copy" out of casual conversation. There is no more running to him to verify reports, to learn who is to be appointed to office, to get stories about senators, to get advance statements prior to official action. Mr. Taft does not say much about it, but he lets it be known that he insists upon the dignity of his office. He likes small talk to express his views about men and affairs, and his visitors may use what they hear for their guidance, but not as presidential gossip for publication. livery of Mrs. Taft's cow never has been told correctly. Maj. Gen. Henry C. Corbin, who was a farmer in his younger days, was commissioned to get a cow. He made a selection and early one morning he and Mrs. Corbin, who are among the elite of Chevy Chase, Washington's fashionable suburb, embarked in an automobile and led "Bossy" into the city and up to the back fence of the White House. There they sent in a policeman for President and Mrs. Taft, who came out and opened the gate in regular country fashion. Then arose a problem as to what to do with the cow. When the quartet arrived at the White House stable with the cow they found it crowded so full of automobiles that no place was left for "Bossy." Finally, by shifting around, stable room was found. Gen. Corbin fixed an automobile cushion by "Bossy's" side and in the regular old-fashioned way milked about a quart of lacteal fluid, which President and Mrs. Taft "sampled" and pronounced good. Having delivered the cow Gen. and Mrs. Corbin whisked away in their automobile. "Bossy's" surroundings were a little strange to her at first, but she has become used to the policeman and automobiles and is giving first-rate satisfaction. greatest interest in the work of her husband. Mrs. Clark, before her marriage, was Miss Genevieve Bennett. She is essentially domestic in her tastes and is decidedly intellectual. She is conversant with the great questions of the day, and has devoted herself to the seconding of her husband's public career, and to her children, of whom she has two living, Bennett and Genevieve. It has been said of John Sharp Williams, former leader of the minority, that he had attended more colleges than any other man in congress, but people who know of Mr. Clark's career from boyhood say that he holds the real record. Mrs. Clark is one of the charter members of the Congressional club and is prominently identified with the management of the organization. She is a delightful hostess and is affectionately regarded by the new arrivals in congressional circles, who look to her for guidance in "official social" matters. scarcely more than one-fourth of the families enumerated. The number of children under 16 years of age to each white family was 2.8 in 1790, as compared with 1.5 in 1900. The ratio in 1790, of two children under 16 years of age to each white female 16 years of age and over, declined to one in 1900. Of 3,171,000 white persons enumerated in 1790, approximately 2,000,000 survived 30 years later, 11,500 in 1880, while in 1900 there were 23 persons who reported their ages as 110 years and over, so that at the census of 1900 it is possible that there were still living persons enumerated in the first census, taken 110 years before. In 1790 the Smiths led all the rest, there being 33,345 of that family. Other families followed in the sequence given: Brown, Davis, Jones, Johnson, Clark, Williams, Miller and Wilson. These nine names represented about four per cent. of the total white population of 1790. Charles L. Foster and Ed. Hamilton, Props. A First-Class Resort.

"What I needed was to quit coffee and take nourishment in such form as my stomach could digest. "I had read much about Postum, but never thought it would fit my case until one day I decided to quit coffee and give it a trial and make sure about it. So I got a package and carefully followed the directions. "Soon I began to get better and was able to eat carefully selected foods without the aid of pepsin or other digestants and it was not long before I was really a new woman physically. "Now I am healthy and sound, can eat anything and everything that comes along and I know this wonderful change is all due to my having quit coffee and got the nourishment I needed through this delicious Postum. "My wonder is why everyone don't give up the old coffee and the troubles that go with it and build themselves up as I have done, with Postum."

A story in which Webster is said to have figured: The statesman was once asked by a woman at a dinner given in his honor, how he varied in his eating and what he generally ate. "Madam," the answer rak, "I vary in eating in this respect; sometimes I eat more, but never less." THE SUNDAY NIGHT SUPPER Time of All Times Where the Expert with the Chafing Dish Can Make Good. Probably the most sociable meal in the whole week is the Sunday night supper. It is an informal occasion for the dropping in of intimate friends, and the informality adds to its charm. In many households the servants are allowed to take a holiday on Sunday afternoons, and the members of the family bestir themselves for supper with the chafing dish, and perhaps the delicatessen shop, as assistants. It is an opportunity for experimental cooking with an indulgent company and the delicious dishes that may be concocted on these occasions are manifold. Of course, a gas stove is even better than a chafing dish for cooking things, but the shining metal dish over the alcohol flame is a very cheerful looking ornament on the supper table. While somebody mixes the salad and somebody else slices the bread, the confident culinary queen, who is generally the eldest sister, takes the chafing dish in hand. The Home. Sugar should be added to turnips, beets, peas, corn, squash and pumpkin. Spareribs should be broiled rather than roasted, and served with apple sauce and mashed turnips. It takes longer to cook sweet potatoes than the common kind and they cook more quickly in salt water. A meat chopper may be better cleaned by running a piece of bread through the machine before washing. Oatmeal can be used instead of barley or rice in the soup. It thickens it, and adds a flavor which is pleasant. Place mirrors so that the direct rays of the sun do not fall upon them. It gives the glass a milky appearance which can never be entirely remedied. To remove tea, coffee, fruit and vegetable stains from white goods, heap salt on the spot, rub hard, and rinse it in hot water in which considerable borax has been dissolved. A reliable test for mushrooms, says an experienced housekeeper, is to put a bit of silver, such as a well-washed dime, into a dish in which they are cooked. If it discolors the mushrooms are unfit for food. Keeping Bread. For a bread box, a covered stone crock. The bread will keep much nicer than in a tin vessel. The crock should be placed in a cool place. Never put the bread in it without covering it with a cloth, to exclude the air. To keep sandwiches that have been prepared beforehand moist, wrap them in a slightly-damp cloth. This is not practical if they are to be kept too long, as they will get musty. Be careful that not a bit of butter gets into the bread box. It will get rancid and make the rest of the bread taste. Receptacles should be scalded out frequently, being wiped well afterward. The cloths used to cover the bread should also be washed often. Prawn or Shrimp Curry. Put four ounces of butter in a sauce pan and slice into it two small onions. Fry them until brown, then remove them into another dish. Have the prawns or shrimps picked and rub one and a half tablespoonfuls of curry powder over them; put them into the melted butter and stew over a slow fire until the fish becomes a light brown. Add as much stock or gravy as will cover the prawns; season with a little salt, and when the gravy has became thick add a coffee cupful of cocoanut milk or cream and the juice of a lemon. Mix well together and serve hot with boiled rice. A dessert-spoonful of chutney is an improvement. Salad Dressing. I will tell you just how I make it. I put the vinegar in a pint bowl that just fits the top of my teakettle, mix sugar, salt and mustard together, and stir into the vinegar. Cover, and let it get real boiling hot before I stir in the milk and egg, and then keep stirring till it thickens, which ought not to take over 15 minutes. If it don't thicken next time, wet one-fourth teaspoon of cornstarch in a very little milk and stir it in. I sometimes do when I want it extra thick—Boston Globe. Creole Chicken. Make a roux—that is, take one heaping tablespoonful of lard, put it in a kettle over the fire, and when hot add a large tablespoonful of flour and stir until brown, and do not let it burn. Add one large minced onion. Then the chicken, cut into pieces as for frying or stewing, and let it brown. Then add two large ripe tomatoes and enough water to make a nice stew. Let it cook slowly until tender, adding water as needed. Have a slow fire; stir often to prevent burning; add pepper to taste. Lucanian Eggs. Chop fine a large white onion and slowly fry in a tablespoonful of butter. When nicely browned add half a pint of milk and six hard-boiled eggs cut in quarters. Let heat slowly. When smoking hot add two tablespoonfuls of grated cheese mixed with one tablespoonful of chopped parsley, a little salt and pepper, a pinch of cinnamon and two well-beaten egg yolks. Stir over a slow fire and add a teaspoonful of lemon juice. ... WHAT JOY THEY BRING TO EVERY HOME as with joyous hearts and smiling faces they romp and play—when in health—and how conducive to health the games in which they indulge, the outdoor life they enjoy, the cleanly, regular habits they should be taught to form and the wholesome diet of which they should partake. How tenderly their health should be preserved, not by constant medication, but by careful avoidance of every medicine of an injurious or objectionable nature, and if at any time a remedial agent is required, to assist nature, only those of known excellence should be used; remedies which are pure and wholesome and truly beneficial in effect, like the pleasant laxative remedy, Syrup of Figs and Elixir of Senna, manufactured by the California Fig Syrup Co. Syrup of Figs and Elixir of Senna has come into general favor in many millions of well informed families, whose estimate of its quality and excellence is based upon personal knowledge and use. Syrup of Figs and Elixir of Senna has also met with the approval of physicians generally, because they know it is wholesome, simple and gentle in its action. We inform all reputable physicians as to the medicinal principles of Syrup of Figs and Elixir of Senna, obtained by an original method, from certain plants known to them to act most beneficially, and presented in an agreeable syrup in which the wholesome Californian blue figs are used to promote the pleasant taste; therefore it is not a secret remedy, and hence we are free to refer to all well informed physicians, who do not approve of patent medicines and never favor indiscriminate self-medication. Please to remember and teach your children also that the genuine Syrup of Figs and Elixir of Senna always has the full name of the Company—California Fig Syrup Co.—plainly printed on the front of every package and that it is for sale in bottles of one size only. If any dealer offers any other than the regular Fifty cent size, or having printed thereon the name of any other company, do not accept it. If you fail to get the genuine you will not get its beneficial effects. Every family should always have a bottle on hand, as it is equally beneficial for the parents and the children, whenever a laxative remedy is required.

SAVING PAINT MONEY It Cannot Be Done by Using Cheap Material and Cheap Painters. In arranging for painting, a good many property-owners try to save money by employing the painter who offers to do the job cheapest—or try to save money by insisting on a low-priced paint. But no property-owner would run such risks if he realized what must be taken into consideration in order to get a job that will wear and give thorough satisfaction. No houseowner will go wrong on the painting question if he writes National Lead Company, 1902 Trinity Building, New York, for their Houseowner's Painting Outfit No. 49, which is sent free. It is a complete guide to painting. It includes a book of color schemes for either exterior or interior painting, a book of specifications, and an instrument for detecting adulteration in paint materials. Nearly every dealer has National Lead Company's pure white lead. (Dutch Boy Painter trademark.) If yours has not notify National Lead Co., and arrangements will be made for you to get it.

THE Colorado Two Ball Gowns The gown at the left is of lilac tulle made up over white liberty. The low neck of the corsage is bordered with a ruche of tulle, lined with a soft silver ribbon. A similar ruche, but wider, forms the skirt trimming. The little tucker is of white mousseline de sole. The scarf is of the same, starting at the left side of the girdle and fastening at the right shoulder. The other end is fastened at the left shoulder and again at the waist with a paste buckle. The wide corselet girdle is of lilac liberty. On the front of the corsage is a shower bouquet of plink roses. The other gown is of black tulle, embroidered with corals, trimmed with a fringe of corals, and made up over white liberty. The revers are of white liberty, edged with pink velvet, and over these are little pointed revers of embroidery. The chemisette, or tucker, is of white mousseline de sole or tulle, trimmed with lace insertion; the knot is of black liberty ribbon. The little close-fitting sleeves are finished with the coral fringe and ornamented with knots of the black ribbon. The long tunic skirt is slashed open over the underskirt of white liberty. EXTENSION TO SHOPPING BAG. idea of Practical Value That Will Be Welcomed—Idea Capable of Development. A novel shopping bag is made in exquisite leather with the usual clasp and handle, but having an added length that when the shopper starts out with her bag empty is folded up and clasped to the side of the bag. After the regular supply of small purchases has been made and the accumulated samples threaten to overflow and burst all bounds the extension side is unclashed without even opening the bag, which becomes twice its original size. Indeed, it would hardly be straining a point to consider it, in its extended condition, a one-night bag, for if the finest of night dresses were used and the daintiest of traveling helps they could all be got in without a doubt. A look at these leather shopping bags will show the clever woman how the idea could be developed in broad sash ribbon for a fancy work bag that would hold little or much in the way of embroidery. In making the ribbon bag the buttoning up of the extension side would have to be rather complete three enameled buttons at least would be required to hold the wide, soft ribbon in place. HERE IS PRETTY NIGHT DRESS 1 This is a pretty idea for a simple night dress. It would need to be made up in a fine quality material. Insertion is laid on in a pretty pattern in the front; the fulness is then drawn up at the neck and set to a narrow band which is edged with lace. The sleeve is drawn into a narrow band, covered with insertion, to which a frill of soft lace is attached. Materials required: Five and one-half yards 36 inches wide, six yards insertion, 1½ yards lace. "Good Luck" Belt Buckles. Belt buckles in silver, in Japanese characters, which signify good luck and long life, are exceedingly good looking. MAKES A PRETTY TRIMMING Nothing Better Than the Popular French Knot to Add Distinction to Gingham Frock. The girl who is never without a serviceable shirtwaist frock of fine checked gingham can give hers an artistic and distinctive touch by trimming it with the French knot so popular this season. Any one who can make a French knot can do this simple embroidery either directly on the frock itself or on specially prepared bias bands. All sorts of conventional designs are used, which can be copied from books on cross-stitch embroidery, or even beading patterns. The one essential is that the light squares are worked with a dark-colored silk and the dark squares with white or a light tone of the shades used. A heavy twisted embroidery silk is used, or if much work is done, regular crochet silk will be found cheaper. The knots must be firmly made and all must have the same number of twists. It is also important to work them all in the same direction, that is, bring the needle up at the same corner in each square and take it down in the diagonal corner every time. Hold the thread taut with the left hand after the twist is made and the needle is being pushed through the material Princess Silp Useful The wardrobe of nearly every girl will boast of a princess slip this summer. It will prove an exceedingly useful garment and is designed for wear with frocks of net and sheer transparent materials. It will be fashioned from flowered silk, soft messaline in all the pale tones, or from lawn or mercerized materials. It is cut on long graceful lines and fits the figure snugly. When worn exclusively with net or mousselline frocks for evening it is usually made with elbow sleeves and a low rounded neck. But when worn with day frocks long tight sleeves and high neck may be utilized. There may be a plaited or gathered flounce finishing the skirt put on with a heading of heavy lace insertion, although in these days of scanty skirts a deep hem would probably be more in order. The slip is fastened down the back with small flat crochet buttons. To Prevent Chafed Heels Women with narrow heels frequently have trouble with ready made footwear. The shoe rides up at the heel and a painful blister occurs, which effectively cripples one for the time being. This is especially true of low shoes. To prevent it with your next pair cut a few inches from a piece of old velvet, or get a bit of velvet ribbon to fit between the heel and the shoe. It can be either tacked into place or pasted. This renders the heel comfortable without lessening the size of the shoe, which is the disadvantage of the felt sole. Why help pay big rent?

Macklem's Bread At All Grocers England's Winter Too Much For Great Singer. London, England, April 11. Mrs. E. Azalia Hackley, America's famous singer, who came abroad ast Fall, has been compelled to cancel all her engagements here and on the Continent owing to illness. At present Mrs. Hackley is under the care of Drs. MacDonald and Maxwell, two of England's most noted specialists. The noted singer is suffering from acute inflammation of the head and both physicians have advised her to return to America as soon as she is able to stand the voyage. Since Mrs. Hackley's arrival here she has sung for "At Homes" and Musicals in some of England's most exclusive Clubs and Drawing Rooms, besides teaching vocal culture here at Taymtee Hall. One of her most important engagements in London was in the "Messiah" to be given Easter by one of the leading Choral Societies in England. This, together with many other engagements, will have to be cancelled owing to the singers ill-ness. In a social way, Madam Hackley has made a number of friends here. She had letters of introduction to Americans residing in England, who knowing that she was alone, have introduced her to others. Madam Hackley's first appearance in London was at Kensington Hall, where she headed a list of English and Foreign Artist at a Charity Concert for the Messina Earthquake victims. On the night of the concert London was visited by the worst black fog of the Winter, and although Madam Hackley was then suffering from bronchitis, she ventured out an sang with great success, but the experience proved a costly one, for from that time on each week brought some new ailment. As a result she will be compelled to return to America and come again when she is better able in health to stand the heavy, damp climate of England. Cripple Creek News. Rev. J. P. Howard, the great preacher and singing evangelist has just closed a great revival here on Sunday night. Rev. J. H. Brown, pastor of Handy Chapel A. M. E. Church deserves much praise is due the pastor for using his influence to secure this great man, who came to us at a time when the church was in great need of a revival. The meeting lasted just a week but nothing like it has ever been in the history of the church. The congregation was mixed with both races on each night, the interest of the meeting was seen to grow intensely. On Sunday Rev. Howard seemed lost in the spirit, he preached three times on this day, people came from Victor and Cripple Creek and the day was a day of one continued joy for the church. Handy Chapel has taken on a form of high spiritual life. It goes by the saying of all the people who know and are loud in their expressions, they say there never was such a meeting held in this city. Their was four who were happily converted and eleven additions. The church also taken on a high tide of financial improvement. Rev. Howard was astonished on Sunday when the pastor, Rev. J. H. Brown read the receipts during the week, he was also presented several handsome presents by the pastor and members. Rev. Howard left on Monday to preach in Colorado Springs, Monday night, on his way home. He left us here with many regrets and we are all looking with great anticipation when Rev. Howard will return back to us. Quarterly meeting will be held Sunday at Handy Chapel, the pastor Rev. J. H. Brown who is known to succeed in whatever he undertakes is getting things in readiness along all lines. A. C. CARR, Sec'y of the Board.
