ENUES OF EMPLOYE
AGAINST O
SMALL THINGS.
This is a great big world. But, the acts, and deeds which count in its make-up are small. It is the little things that count. Little things both in the acts and the deeds. For some time, now, this reliable family journal devoted to the advancement of the race has been discussing and urging upon our patrons especially and to the race in general, the importance of utilizing every means to become more desirable citizens. We have tried to show the great value to our people of doing something to change public sentiment to a more favorable point. In the past twenty years that we have lived in Colorado, we have seen many changes occur. None, perhaps more humiliating to us than the gradually diminishing opportunities for labor along various lines for the members of our race. Years ago there were many avenues open to our people for employment, which are now closed. Not exactly because we are black, but in many ways, the dereliction of our people in small things have been, and now is, the cause. THE COLORADO STATESMAN only asks the Negro to consider himself, and the part HE has played in affairs. We only ask him to be honest. We cannot be honest with ourselves without being honest with others. To be honest means something besides lying and stealing. It enters into all that we do. One can steal time from an employer as well as steal money. Be on time. One can steal by doing poor work. Do your best.
PETTY STEALING.
In speaking of stealing one can not accuse the Negro of any very great offenses. He has never robbed a bank or held up a train, or stolen his millions from the pockets of the dear people on the Board of Trade. But he has been charged with stealing coal, chickens and divers and sundry articles of a petty nature. This is not stealing its just taking. But its bad form and the sooner our people find it out, and stop putting collar buttons, stick pins, chickens and coal in the same sack, the better it will be for the good name of the race. Its a disgrace to be a petty thief. To show much of this kind of conduct can the present un-
pleasant and adverse condition of public sentiment be traced. We do not mean to read into this article that the Negro is the ONLY petty thief in Colorado or elsewhere. Other races will steal little things, but this petty stealing of goods and chattels, as well as time and labor loose to the race good jobs. We have among our people hundreds of good, honest-hard working men and women, who would not presume to touch that which was not their's, and the name of petty thieving hung on the race operates against their securing work, and if a people cannot get work, they suffer. What this paper most desires is to rouse our own people to a realizing sense of their duty and responsibility. There is a something each of us owes to the other. It is the implied answer to "are we our brother's keeper?"
CULTIVATE VIRTUES.
It is said by many that we know the white man's virtues and his vices, but we have cultivated his vices. It lies within every Negro to controvert this aspersion. Here and there among our people will be found one whose reputation is tainted. But the great mass of our people possess the same rugged honesty and virtues that characterized the Southern slave when left to protect the homes of his soldier master. He was trusted then. He can be trusted now.
TAFT HOPEFUL FOR FUTURE OF NEGRO RACE
TAFT HOPEFUL FOR FUTURE OF NEGRO RACE
Washington, May 26.—Speaking to the colored graduates of Howard University, near this city, today, President Taft declared that never at any time has the future of the Negro, as a race, appeared more hopeful and bright than at the present day.
Conditions for the negro in the South, the President said, he believed are growing better and better. Mr. Taft urged upon the Negro the importance of gaining the respect and the friendship of the white people among whom he is to live.
President Taft personally handed

to the more than 100 candidates for degrees their parchment rolls. He was escorted to the foundation of the new Carnegie library of the university, where he officiated at the laying of the cornerstone. "I am far from saying," said Mr. Taft in his address, "that the colored race today would be better off if they all had university education. No race would be better off if all were educated as university men. The great body of the colored race, as the great body of the white race, must depend for the livelihood upon their manual labor." "On the other hand," Mr. Taft said, "there is very great opportunity for educated colored men to aid their race in the struggle before them for economic success and the maintenance of themselves as worthy and valuable members of the community."
He said that the colored race needed a great many more physicians to teach them how to obey more strictly the laws of hygiene. Secretary Ballinger also spoke.
RACE NEWS
GATHERED FROM VARIOUS SOURCES
Mrs. Carrie Penniston, at Baltimore, has been lef an annuity of $1,200 and a gift of $5,000 with which to purchase a home by Miss Fannie Donaldson, a millionaire who recently died, whom she had served as maid for several years.
Richmond, Va., May 17.—Four Richmond banks operated by and for colored people have reported to the State Corporation Commission a volume of business of $723,311. The savings accounts total $294,173, with open checking accounts amounting to $124,489.
Since its establishment in I868 the medical Department of Howard University has graduated 1,108 students—778 in medicine, 142 in dentistry and 188 in pharmacy. They are scattered all over the country and in the islands of the sea, and are doing a tremendous work for the advancement of their race.
There is a "Booker T. Washington School" at Rock Hill, S. C., and a land tract at Columbia, S. C., known as "Booker T. Washington Heights." The Negro is growing in race pride when, he can find honored names among members of his own cult when, he wishes to give his belongings a fitting title. The Gibbs High School at Little Rock, named in honor of the generous Judge M. W. Gidds, is another case in point.
NEGRO SOLDIERS HAVE GOOD NAME
ONE OF THEIR RACE RELATES HISTORY OF THE REMARKABLE SERVICE THEY HAVE GIVEN COUNTRY
(From Cheyenne State Leader.)
Cheyenne, Wyo., May 19, '09.
Editor Cheyenne State Leader:
Deer Sir:—An editorial under the above heading which appeared in your valuable paper yesterday was read with much gratification by me as well as by many other members of my race and the flattering comment it is receiving is justly merited. It has been logically discussed by no little number of Cheyenne Negroes and it is the general opinion of all that it will have much influence in adding to and upholding the morals of the Negro soldier who have ever been loyal to the stars and stripes.
It is quite natural, of course, that undesirable characters are to be found in any great number of individuals, regardless of race, creed or nationality, but the Negro is the only race that is singled out and all judged by those of its bad characters. This, of course, is only done by a prejudiced and narrow minded people, but the better class of the Caucasians who are fighting against such unjust evils, are looked upon by Negroes everywhere as beacon lights for the solution of such evils.
There has never been a time since the days of Attucks the Negro who shed the first blood in defense of this country—that the Negro has not played his part well for the same cause; In fact he has acquitted himself on the battlefield in a degree that caused the civilized world to marvel at his bravery and wonderful achievements of victory. During the Civil war when he was called to arms to help save the nation, he responded willingly and sacrificed his life in many battles and when the smoke cleared away at the close of the war, he too stood at parade rest, and witnessed what he had help make possible—Lee's surrender to Grant. The Negro receives less protection from the flag he help to save than any of its subjects, yet history fails to record a single instance of a traitor against the Union among the Negroes. In the recent Spanish-American war the Negro soldiers covered themselves with glory by charging and capturing San Juan Hill in the face of death and saving the Rough Ribers from annihilation.
As a race, the Negro is under a severe handicap, but notwithstanding this fact, he is fast forging to the front by accumulating
education and wealth. Emerging from a cruel and hellish bondage of 250 years less than a half a century ago he has to his credit today $550,000,000 worth of taxable property, 400,000 homes, 200,000 farms, 28,000 public schools with 30,000 teachers, 170 industrial schools and colleges, 26,000 churches and as many ministers, 10,000 stores, 46 banks and more than 32,000 young men and women learning various trades. With such progress it goes without saying that the Negro has not only made good as a lawabiding citizen but in all avocations of life. No anarchists or bomb throwers are found among the Negro race. Can this be truthfully said of any other race?
In conversation with John J. Reardon, a first class gunner of Company C. Fourth field artillery, who arrived in Cheyenne today from the Philippines he said: "The Ninth cavalry is on our trail and will be here in a few weeks, and they are as fine a set of men as one would want to meet and to Chaplain Prioleau is due a large share of credit for their good deportment. Mr. Reardon says his regiment and the Ninth were stationed near each other in the islands and their associations were quite frequent.
In extending hearty congratulations on your timely and well-written editorial, I am sure the sentiment of the Negroes are voiced by
Yours Respt.,
S. H. HOBSON.
WASHINGTON LETTER
WASHINGTON LETTER
The Great Y. M. C. A. Meeting. Dr. Washington's Best and Greatest Effort in Washington. Certain Influences Discredit Correspondence sent out by the Writer.
BY JAMES CUBERT CAMPBELL
The chief topic of discussion here for the past two weeks has been the great Y. M. C. A. meetmeeting, Colored Men's Branch, at the Belasco Theater, before which Dr. Booker T. Washington spoke. The audience was made up entirely of men, and Prof. Kelly Miller is quoted as having said that it was the largest meet-of men he had ever witnessed.
One of the features over which considerable discussion arises is, whether or not the Sunday address of the great educator was not his best and greatest effort in Washington. The friendly rivalry seems to be keen in an effort to fix the status of that address, but most of all we hear comments about what a great many have termed the meeting's "stage setting," that is, how it appeared from the audience. The greatest
N.O. 36
living Negro, as he was introduced there, came upon the stage from the left, and, as in the drama of life, he occupied the front of the stage, so did he at Belasco's Theater at this meeting. United States Senators, members of the House of Represenatives, clergymen, professional men, business men, and, in fact, men from nearly every walk of life, formed a great prominent background. One of the most notable features, however, of this background scene, was the presence of, to a man, a certain class of our most respected citizens. All the country does honor and recognizes, proudly, the lofty height to which the Tuskegee Educator has risen, but there is nowhere in the land where this lofty station is appreciated more than it is here. The truth is potent and everywhere known and recognized that Dr. Washington is one of the most powerful and influential citizens in the land, and there is nothing upon earth to which Washington is more afraid or to which it pays more respect than it does to "influence." Quite a few of the respected citizens here whose newspaper names always appear with the "Hon" prefix, have been boasting that they never attended a Y. M. C. A. meeting, but it was noticed that when Dr. Washington addressed the Y. M. C. A. gathering, they occupied front seats. Everyone of them was there sitting straight up where they could not be overlooked
I have positive knowledge of certain influences here in Washington that have taken it upon themselves to discredit the correspondence I send to the press by sending after it a lot of slanderous matter. An official of more or less prominence and his "man Friday" are sending this discrediting matter to some of the Washington papers who refuse to publish it. The remainder of it is put out for foreign consumption. Its a thinly veiled and cowardly act worthy of only those who are attempting it, but I notice that they have not branded as a "lie" any of my references to "Wilgeria Oil." Their "bluff hands" will be "called" if the cowardice continues.
Atlanta, May 16.—Because of the confession of a dying white man, Jim Richardson, colored, who has been serving for 18 years in the penitentiary for murder, will soon be a free man by pardon of Governor Smith. Just before he died, the white man confessed he accidently killed the white man Smith while he was prowling his house. The colored man was suspected and rather than go into court himself, the slayer let the corored man be convicted.

‘Woman Had Put Up with a Lot, But
Last Trick of Monkey Was
Too Much.
George F. Freeman no longer owns
@ monkey. He did until. short time
ago. The simian was a pet for Free-
man, and a pest of his mother. Al
though she loathed the creature she
tolerated its presence on account of
the attachment between her son end
his pet.
One day Mrs, Freeman was planting
flower seed in a small patch of spaded
ground in her back yard. The mon-
key had watched with interest the
preparation of the ground for the
seeds. When the planting came his
curiosity grew as the work progressed.
Following Mrs. Freeman as she
thrust the small sweet pea seeds into
the ground and covered them over
the monkey dug up each seed, but it
found each one alike in taste—and not
an altogether pleasant taste at that
—spat it out and moved on in the
wake of the planter. Mrs. Freeman's
back was turned to the monkey until
site finished the last row, then she
turned and saw the results of the
animal's campaign in the place where
she expected flowers to bloom.
“George,” she said, when her son
came home, “that monkey and I can-
not live in the same family.”
The monkey has a new home now.—

Donald had been to Sunday school,
and on coming home was asked what
he had learned. The lesson was the
story of Joseph, and the small learn-
er was evidently very full of his sub-

“Oh,” he said, “it was about a boy,
and his brothers took him and put
him in a hole in the ground; and
then they killed another boy, and
took the first boy’s coat and dipped it
in the blood of this boy and—"
“Oh, no, Donald, not another boy!”
his sister interrupted, horrified. But

TEXAS SENATOR OPENS FIGHT IN
THE SENATE PRESS
GALLERY.
CORRESPONDENT DENOUNCED AS.
AN INFAMOUS LIAR AND MIS-
ERABLE CREATURE.
Washington.—Senator Bailey of
Texas and W. S. Manning, represen-
tative of the New York Times in the
Senate press gallery, exchanged blows
just as the Senate adjaurned Thursday,
&s a result of a conversation they had
in reference to an article printed by
the New York newspaper questioning
the sincerity of the senator in his
course on the income tax.
Neither was injured, as they were
separated by Senator Clapp, Porto
Rican Commissioner Larringa, a num-
ber of Senate employes and several
newspaper correspondents.
A bitter attack upon the author of an
article in the New York Times, charg-
ing that Senator Bailey had played into
the hands of Senator Aldrich by his
course In demanding an immediate
vote on the income tax amendment,
and had thus caused a split of the
forces supporting such an amendment,
was made by Mr. Bailey in the Senate.
Mr. Manning accosted Mr. Bailey
after adjournment to inform him that
he was inaccurate in suggesting Re-
publican senators as a possible source
of inspiration for the article.
Mr. Bailey asked who wrote article,
and at the same time declared, it is
said, that the man who had written it
was a “liar.” The senator's language
was very emphatic and Mr. Manning
responded that he “had not had the
honor to write the story.”
Mr. Bailey said that the word “hon-
or” was emphasized in a manner in-
tended to be offensive. The two men
were directly in front of the door lead-
ing to the finance committee and also
in front of one of the private eleva-
tors.
Several persons heard the word
“liar!” proclaimed in a loud voice and
then saw Mr. Bailey and Mr, Manning
clinch. The latter claims Mr. Bailey
hit him first,
In the mixup Mr. Manning struck
the senator with his umbrella, knock-
ing off the senator’s hat, and the
senator grabbed Mr. Manning by the
throat.
Just at that moment the elevatot
stopped at the Senate floor and Sena
tor Clapp and Mr. Larringa stepped
out,
Without waiting to learn the cause
of the disturbance Mr. Clapp threw
his arms around Senator Bailey, whe
at that time seemed to be in a posi
tion to do serious injury to the cor
respondent, a young man of slight
build.
The Texan struggled desperatels
to break from this restraint, but Sen.
ator Clapp tightened his hold an¢
| newspaper correspondents pushed Mr
Manning away and insisted upon his
|ieaviae the corridor,
Mr. Bailey’s speech in regard to the
article was one of the most scathing
arraignments of a newspaper corres
pondent that has ever been heard in
the Senate. The senator not only as
serted that the writer of the article
was “an infamous liar,” but that he
was a “miserable creature unfit to as
sociate with honest men.”

Right, is heartily approved with
growing force by the intelligent
Public to which it appeals.
To read it is a liberal Education,
and the citizen who goes without
it does a positive harm to himself,
to his family, and to the commu-
nity.

THINGS THAT GLITTER.
AFTER a six round battle in the East the other day, for which he was paid $5,000, Jack Johnson, the Negro pugilist, is said to have bought $1,800 worth of diamonds. His tastes seem to run to things that glitter. His wife looks whiter bedecked with the sparklers and Johnson himself emits less gloom behind a big headlight. But would he not be taking a safer course if he invested $1,800 in coal and opened a coal-yard, or established an ink factory? All things that sparkle do not insure a black man a life of ease and unbroken happiness.
DEATH OF ERNEST HOGAN.
ERNEST HOGAN, the colored comedian, whose stage reputation was probably wider than that of any other colored actor of the present day, died in New York City on May 19th, of tuberculosis. He had been ill and unable to follow his profession for more than a year. He had followed the stage steadily for nearly thirty years, and besides appearing in all parts of the United States, had toured in Europe and Australia. He worked up from minstrelsy into leading parts in musical comedy and high-class vaudeville. In these later avenues he commanded high salaries, and his popularity never waned. Although a capable actor and manager and a most successful song writer, he never seemed to be troubled with the disagreeable affliction called "swellhead," but was as genial and popular off the stage as he was thorough and painstaking behind the footlights.
The trait in his character which entitles him most to public consideration, however, was his philosophical turn of mind, for while he was a natural comedian and was quick to see the funny side of everything, he was always seriously and earnestly desirous of turning his successes and opportunities to account for the general profit and improvement of race conditions. He was an occasional contributor to the newspapers, and always treated a subject in a most serious fashion. His greatest fault was that of most successful colored stage characters, extravagant living. It is said that he realized nearly fifty thousand dollars from the songs that he wrote, and he made more than that amount by his work on the stage, yet he died poor, and for the past year had been limited to small allowances from funds raised through benefit performances.
His stage style was original and full of that quaint and humorous philosophy which has made writers of Negro stories famous, and with an early education, Hogan would have made his mark in higher lines. Whenever he was filling an engagement in Denver, Ernest Hogan always made it a point to call on The Colorado Statesman, and the long acquaintance and sincere friendship existing between him and its publisher made him seem to belong to our own community, which, by his death, suffers irreparable loss. He was born in Bowling Green, Kentucky, about fifty years ago, but for years had made his home in New York.
LEGALIZED CONTEMPT.
A MAJORITY of Judges in the Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of the State of New York, on May 21st, sustained a lower court decision in which it is declared that the arrest and imprisonment of a colored man, even though he be falsely accused, could not produce the shame and humiliation that a white man would endure in similar circumstances. Two judges dissented.
The case was one in which a colored Pullman car porter had sued a rich white man for false arrest and malicious prosecution. A jury in the lower court awarded the plaintiff $2,500 damages, but the verdict was set aside by the trial judge as excessive. He declared his reasons thus: "No such verdict as this would stand. He was a porter, and while he is just as good as the President of the United States, and if he is imprisoned wrongfully, he should be paid for it, it would be bad argument to say he is just as good in many senses. He would not be hurt just as much if put in prison as every other man would be. That depends on a man's standing, what his circumstances are, and, if he is a colored man is to be considered. You cannot say that he is just the same as a white man when you come to say how much his shame will suffer."
This sentiment becomes the law of New York, as by presumption, it is the law of the South. The law which provides damages for injury to a man's reputation and character, should, naturally and justly, consider his circumstances. But the circumstances to be considered are his standing, his general reputation and his social and business relations, and not his race or color. As a rule, a colored man, even though he is a porter, has wider acquaintance and closer relations with persons of higher character than has a white man of similar station. If his reputation is damaged by false arrest, he suffers greater injury than does the white porter. The assumption that his shame is not so great because of the fact that he is a colored man, is purely a white man's unlawful and unjustifiable assumption. The fact is measured alone by the man's intelligence and the intelligence of his associates, and not by his color or race. He and his associates are very apt to have higher ideals and desires, and therefore a keener sense of disgrace and shame, than white men of similar station. But the New York court applies to the colored man the presumption of a natural and general contempt in the public mind, and by its decision it permanently establishes and legalizes that presumption. A greater injustice was never done in the name of the law. It creates an impassible barrier between citizens which can find no authority in the clearly expressed principles upon which the government of the United States is founded.
State Should Own Them
By OLGA NETHERSOLE
Actress.
N considering the Glackin bill, authorizing the state of Illinois to establish by special taxation a tuberculosis sanatorium, the question arises as to whether it should end with the establishment of a sanatorium for tuberculosis only, or whether the proceeds of the special tax should not be also used for the establishment of a sanatorium for the cure of other diseases and for the betterment of tenement districts.
I
The tenement house laws could work in co-operation and be part of this new law. There could be built, with the proceeds of this tax, model tenements, of which the state should be landlord. These tenements should be designed and built for the health and welfare of the working classes.
No better model could be followed than the Krupp dwellings of Germany. These buildings are built in squares, with open stairways, large central court, bathroom, kitchen, parlor and bedrooms—no shutting out from the people of their natural rights—God's light and air.
The model dwellings should be under state control and visited at intervals by official inspectors. No overcrowding should be allowed, cleanliness and hygiene should be insisted upon, and the tenants of these dwellings should have free medical treatment from medical officers of the fund, and should, in fact, be under medical supervision.
I venture to suggest that such tenements could be run by the state on a paying basis, and the benefit of the community would be so far-reaching that it is impossible to limit it by any statement.
The effect on the health of the individual is obvious, and the moral awakening would be a revelation, because, as the tenement question now stands, it is quite a common occurrence for ten families to live in a house originally built for one family, and several people of both sexes, boys and girls, men and women, to sleep in one room.
A
The tenement house to-day breeds physical and moral disease. As W. J. Hurlbut, in his play, "The Writing on the Wall," asserts, "The tenement house landlords are a trust—a combination in restriction of health, of decency, of virtue." The state must fight the trust by becoming the landlord of model tenement dwellings for the people.
The

of bills is a fine, firm quality of linen, known as "distinctive" paper, manufactured under government inspection at Dalton, Mass. Its delicate yet tough fibers have had a varied history before receiving the government stamp. The flax grew, perhaps, in the moist, fertile fields of Ireland. It was gathered, bleached, spun and woven largely by woman's skill. It may have formed at one time dainty lingerie; it may have been the garments of babes; it may have been the confirmation suits of children or the graduating gowns of girls. The paper employed for the printing Loving hands have carved it patched
it, darned it, and finally consigned it to the rag bag. Its mission, however, was not thereby concluded. By a process of modern alchemy, it is transformed and issued anew, not from looms, but from rolls, to take up another cycle of usefulness. Feeding avarice, serving as a channel for charity, satisfying hunger, paying bills, building homes and perhaps dowering brides whose mothers wore the same fibers when they stood before the altar, the bank note could tell a rare story of comedy and tragedy.
Of all the erroneous and harmful ideas that young men and young women have, the worst is the pernicious belief that college is simply the stage which precedes the real beginning of life, and that the real life and the real tasks are still to come. University life is not an introduction to life, but a part of it, and a most important part of it. More and more, as the years go by, in the business as in the professional world, the stress is being laid upon the trained mind, able to grapple with the complicated problems of industrial and urban life. Those whose minds are not

trained will be servants, who will not only have to obey some one else, but will have to bear the added indignity of being told how to do the work. And the training of the mind, which will make a man a master and not a servant, is to be had only through hard work, intellectual work, and by a utilization to the full of the great opportunities which a university training spreads out before one. To give that training, to help that mastery of one's mental powers, in which lies the secret of Midas and of Socrates, is the purpose and the aim of a university.
Life's Discords OftenWork for Good By JOHN K. LEBARON
Life's Discords OftenWork for Good
By JOHN K. LEBARON
A small discord will sometimes ruin a large symphony.
A discord is anything that disturbs the tranquil trend of things.
No matter how crude or how savage a people may be if left to themselves they exist with a certain degree of harmony. This is one of the selfish requirements of self-preservation.
It is not necessarily a matter of ethics. At war with other tribes, even at war with nature, the savage, nevertheless, lives in rude harmony with his own people.
War is the great discordant note of civilization. Among enlightened nations 2,000 years of Christian civilization should have made war impossible.
As long as wars exist the symphony of civilization is incomplete.
All great souls have been discords, out of harmony with existing ideas. "The carrion in the sun will convert itself to grass," says Emerson. Bearing out the not altogether philosophical theory that there good in everything, even discords have their mission.

Denver society showed its love for the terpsichorean art by braving the worst rainstorm of the season and attending the Bon Ton Club's first dance last Tuesday evening at Dania hall. The hall was decorated with palms and the national colors. Beautiful girls, laden with beautiful flowers, escorted by Denver's foremost young men in formal dress, made this by far the event of the season. Taxicabs, autos and other modern conveyances were much in evidence.
One of the attractions for the great Colorado Statesman's annual uicnic on June 23rd, is the moving picture show in the afternoon for the benefit of the children. This alone will be worth taking the children to see. Don't forget this. Then the great Marathon race for the fast runners of Colorado. This feature will bring to Denver the fastest runners in the state. Let the colored boys get ready and try to lower the world's record. All this and many other interesting features will be seen at Bloomfield Park June 23rd.
The Eureka Literary Society closed for the season Tuesday evening. The program, though short, was fine indeed. The singing by the Y. M. C. B. Glee Club was excellent. They responded to an encore. The solo of Mrs. W. A. Jones was as usual a treat. This young lady never disappoints an audience. She possesses a charming personality. Rev. D. E. Over's paper along religious, economic and social lines showed much thought, deep research and timely advice, which, were if heeded by both young and old would tend materially to the uplift of humanity. We need more such timely words because the conduct of the majority of our young people is at times disgraceful in the extreme.
PROMINENT MEMBERS OF THE RACE ATTENDING THE PRESBYTERIAN GENERAL AS-
One of the very interesting features connected with the General Assembly of the Presbyterian church is the presence of a number of prominent Negro commissioners from the south, who are representing four synods, which include fifteen Presbyteries and a church membership of over 15,000 communicants. These representative men of the race are well educated, cultured and are leaders in the spiritual world and educational welfare of their people. Among the most prominent ones present at the assembly are: Dr. C. D. Dussenberg, Ashville, N. C.; Dr. J. A. Bonner, Wilmington, N. C.; Rev. H. C. Peterson, Birmingham, Ala.; Rev. L. B. Ellerson, Jacksonville, Fla.; Rev. J. G. Walker, Greensborough, N. C.

Harry Johnson was stopped a few nights ago by a would-be hold up and demanded "hands up." The demand was met with a blow over the head by Harry with a 44 Colts, which caused the holdup to make a quick retreat and he is no doubt carrying his head in a sling.
The entertainment given at the A. O. U. W. hall Thursday night, May 20th by the Woman's Bazaar, proved to be one of the enjoyable festivities of the week. Besides an excellent supper the ladies had for sale an excellent line of choice hand painted china, sofa pillows, aprons and some very fine burnt wood designs the latter being the work of Miss Eva Hopkins who is a finished artist in that line. Profs. Wm. Moore, Charley Goins and Hue Hopkins were present with their string instruments and rendered some choice selections.
Commencement exercises will be held here next week and among the large class of graduates, Miss S. Kathryne Thistle bears the distinction of being the only colored member of the class assigned a subject on which to write an essay and it is a pleasure to note that the composition of Miss Thistle, "The Struggle of the Negro for Survival in the North," was unhesitatingly conceded to be the best of the class. The young lady justly merits the unlimited compliments she has received and the race should feel proud of this talented individual.
Watch our smoke and don't forget the great annual picnic of the popular Colorado Statesman at Bloomfield park, June 23rd. Moving picture show all day. Bring the children and give them an outing.

THE LATEST IN VISITING AND WALKING COSTUMES.
Sleeveless Coat Adds Much to the Appearance of the First Model—Use of Buttons as Trimmings Shown.
Visiting Costume.—Here, we illustrate one of the very smart sleeveless coats, that are being much worn at present; it is in heavy black satin, handsomely braided in the corners, and on the collar with black and gold braid mixed; the sides are connected by braid, which is formed into little ornaments and then taken across and joined to another ornament on the other side of opening; the same arrangement forms the fastening.
The dress worn beneath it consists
A
of a high-waisted skirt of pale gray cashmere, with a net blouse to match.
Hat of gray straw, trimmed with a wreath of flowers and a feather mount.
Materials required: Two and one-half yards satin 42 inches wide, four yards cloth 48 inches wide, two yards net.
Walking Costume.—The fashion of
Method One Girl Finds Good May Possibly Be of Value to Our Readers.
A girl who had to travel much on dusty street cars found she need have her head shampooed less frequently and keep her scalp much cleaner by wiping it each night with a clean, soft towel.
The hair is parted from the temples to the back of the neck and the scalp rubbed thoroughly with the towel; then a new parting is made and the process repeated until the entire head has been gone over.
After the scalp treatment is finished the hair is brushed with a moderately stiff brush, which is kept scrupulously clean.
Another way to keep the scalp clean is to anoint it with a little sweet oil about an hour or more before the shampoo. The oil loosens the dandruff, cleanses the scalp and greatly adds to the results of the shampoo.
Lavender Pads.
A dainty gift for a housekeeper, one which is particularly suitable also as an engagement present, where something simple and inexpensive is desired, is a set of lavender pads for the lined closet. These were of generous size and flat, so that they might be slipped into the folds of the linen. A set might consist of from three to six. Make them of lavender Japanese crepe, painted with wistaria or other graceful vine. The inside is made of white cotton wadding, between the layers of which dried lavender flowers are plentifully scattered. The pad is finished with tufts or bows of lavender ribbon. It is so simple a gift that anyone can make it at home, but one which every dainty woman must appreciate. We all love beds vaguely fragrant with lavender, but it is one of the little things that busy housekeepers do not find time to attend to. If they were provided with the pads, and in so dainty a form, they could not fall to be pleased.
Hips Inconspicuous
The eternal striving toward hiplessness brings forward all sorts of ingenious ideas. Now comes the notion of attaching the petticoat to the bottom of the corset by means of a line of the metal snap fastenings. As the modish woman never thinks of wearing more than one petticoat, this is quite a practical plan, so far as petticoats of satin or other dark fabrics are concerned. It must be remembered, however, that most of these metal snap buttons are anything but rustless, and if one's summer petticoats are of washable fabrics some other scheme of hiplessness must be devised.
using buttons as a trimming is clearly evidenced in this costume, which is one that may be carried out in almost any costume cloth, serge or tweed.
Our model is in oak-apple brown fine venetian cloth. The two-piece skirt is lined throughout with sateen and is trimmed with small buttons covered with black silk, and silk cord to simulate buttonholes up center front, where the right side wraps over to the left.
The smart little coat is open nearly to waist at the sides, and back seams, the openings being trimmed with buttons.
The collar is faced with black silk; the sleeves are trimmed the entire length with buttons and cord loops.
Materials used: Seven yards 46 inches wide, about seven dozen buttons, three-eighths yard black silk, $4\frac{1}{2}$ yards silk for lining jacket, $4\frac{1}{2}$ yards sateen for lining skirt.
CUFFS FOR ELBOW SLEEVES.
Accessory That Promises to Make for Comfort During the Hot Days of Summer.
The dressmakers continue to insist on the long close-fitting sleeve and the woman who dotes on comfort is in despair. Anything more unpleasant than the process of peeling off a long tight sleeve, inch by inch, when one comes home on a hot day can scarcely be imagined. A glimmer of light, however, appears on the sleeve horizon in the form of cool little transparent cuffs set into the lower end of the sleeve. Sometimes these cuffs are of Irish lace, sometimes of very sheer batiste, tucked or prettily embroidered by hand. They are simply basted into the sleeve and may be removed when laundered. The sleeve itself is, of course, cut off several inches above the wrist, and as the little cuff opens up its outer edge with buttons and loops, there is enough roominess obtainable to push the sleeve upward on very warm days.
Tonic for the Hair.
An excellent and cheap hair tonic may be made from one part paraffin and three parts eau-de-cologne. If used after washing the hair it will make it beautifully glossy-looking, besides strengthening and nourishing it considerably. Apply with a soft brush, and afterward give the hair an even, vigorous brushing with a slightly harder brush.
DESIGNED FOR THE TRAVELER
Small Double Purse Keeps the Gold and Other Coins from Mingling and Tarnishing Former.
This small double purse is intended for the traveler in foreign lands, where gold and silver coins must be carefully guarded and kept apart, lest the tarnished gold be given for copper, as is only too often the case. The
```markdown
```
purse is a development of an old Norwegian pattern of knitting and works out charmingly in any of the pure knitting silks that are used for knitting ties. The purses are made in one color, edged with another. Mole gray and green make a good combination, or any color may be chosen to suit the dress with which the purse is to be worn.
Waistcoat for Women.
The Beau Brummell waistcoat is a garment that will be appreciated by many women in search of an idea to renovate their last year's tailored suits. These vests come in black, gray and brown satin or Ottoman silk, and are in shape similar to the vest which accompanies a man's dress suit. They hook over at the left side, and there finish with a metal buckle, through which the long ends of a directoire sash are pulled. The white silk lining of the vest makes it possible to wear it with the daintiest lingerie or net waists.
When Skin Food Is Needed.
If powder will not stick to the face it is because the skin is too dry and a good skin food should be rubbed in each night.
Fine line of Toilet Articles, Perfumes, Cigars, Etc. Fresh pure Drugs. Courteous treatment. Remember we always use the freshest and purest drugs in our prescriptions; in fact our prescription department is as complete as any in the city. Prices Right.

me a well woman, and I would like to tell the whole world of it. I suffered from female trouble and fearful pains in my back. I had the best doctors and they all decided that I had a tumor in addition to my female trouble, and advised an operation. Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound made me a well woman and I have no more backache. I hope I can help others by telling them what Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound has done for me." — Mrs. EMMA IMSE, 833 First St., Milwaukee, Wis.
The above is only one of the thousands of grateful letters which are constantly being received by the Pinkham Medicine Company of Lynn, Mass., which prove beyond a doubt that Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, made from roots and herbs, actually does cure these obstinate diseases of women after all other means have failed, and that every such suffering woman owes it to herself to at least give Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound a trial before submitting to an operation, or giving up hope of recovery.
Mrs. Pinkham, of Lynn, Mass., invites all sick women to write her for advice. She has guided thousands to health and her advice is free.
Children Need Acting.
Rev. Perry Grant of New York thinks that acting is a psychological need, and is looking for the rich man who will build a theater for children. The purpose of such a theater, he says, is educational and is in keeping with the discoveries of Froebel, who knew that play is an instinct implanted by nature for educational purposes.

Irrigation nearly perfected is to prove the redemption of the immense cattle feeding portions of Routt county and its neighbor across the Wyoming state line, Carbon county.

Secretary of the Interior Ballinger explained to Messrs. De Long and Aupierle of the Grand Valley Water Users' Association, who called on him in Washington, that the stoppage of work on the Grand valley high line reclamation project was due to two causes—doubts of the authority of the department to make the contract with the association and shortage of funds. The attorney general will be called on for an opinion as to the former question.

Don't Poison Baby.
FORTY YEARS AGO almost every mother thought her child must have PAREGORIC or laudanum to make it sleep. These drugs will produce sleep, and A FEW DROPS TOO MANY will produce the SLEEP FROM WHICH THERE IS NO WAKING. Many are the children who have been killed or whose health has been ruined for life by paregoric, laudanum and morphine, each of which is a narcotic product of opium. Druggists are prohibited from selling either of the narcotics named to children at all, or to anybody without labelling them "poison." The definition of "narcotic" is: "A medicine which relieves pain and produces sleep, but which in poisonous doses produces stupor, come, convulsions and death." The taste and smell of medicines containing opium are disguised, and sold under the names of "Drops," "Cordials," "Soothing Syrups," etc. You should not permit any medicine to be given to your children without you or your physician know of what it is composed. CASTORIA DOES NOT CONTAIN NARCOTICS, if it bears the signature of Chas. H. Fletcher.
