WHAT DOES TRUCK GARDENER It has been cold and rainy in Colorado so long that many of us have about forgotten that summer has come. But the record of the past few days has been sufficient to convince the most skeptical. With the coming of midsummer make an inventory, and if possible, there is the same disposition to find out where we are at, that occurs at Christmas. It is well to go over last winter's accounts, and see if they are all paid. It is well to review our amusements and see if we can curtail expenses. It is well to look over the house, see where repairs are needed and get ready. It is even better if you are not a property owner, to quit paying rent, buy a home and have something to show for what you pay out each month besides receipts. Paying debts and owning homes goes a long way towards making a people. Along with homes comes the duty and responsibility of keeping them up. "Denver the Beautiful!" is the cry of the patriotic citizen. To realize this dream every citizen must get busy. Go out about your homes, look them over carefully. Is there not a repair, much-needed, you can make? Is there not need of more grass on your lawn? A little done by each in the final total becomes great and hastens the day when Denver will be the most beautiful city in America. And we will be proud because we have contributed to this great end. SAVING A REPUBLIC. We must confess to a big bump of ignorance. We read in one of our exchanges of the arrival in Liberia of the American Commission who were hailed as the saviours of the land. Of course this has the ring to it. But what did that Commission go to Africa for? For the past six months we have heard more or less of this great African Commission, but nothing more tangible than "to save the republic." Now will some brother with the Socratic brow please rise and explain? The Republic of Liberia will not be saved through outside influences. When the American Negro learned that he 'must tread the wine press alone' he got busy, and ever since has been carrying something to surplus account each year. He has come so fast during --- the past few years that black millionaires will be in order in a few years! What this government should do is to pick out good levelheaded business men of our race and send them there to impart the needed information and energy, instead of cheap politicians. The Liberian Negro can learn from the American Negro that he must cut this singing all day "Under the Bamboo Tree!" In a country whose resources are reported to be rich and almost boundless, such a people must be saved from themselves. Tell those people in Liberia to send a delegation to Colorado and we will show them how the Negro is saving himself each day and doing it well. WANTED—TRUCK GARDENERS. Business will pick up in Colorado. The warm weather is bringing into the market tons of fine fruit and some of the nicest berries produced anywhere. In the vicinity of Denver there are few if any of our race engaged in truck gardening. It is absolutely impossible for the present production of eggs, fruit and garden truck to supply the local market. There is a splendid opportunity for the colored gardener. About this city, land can be purchased at a reasonable price and on terms to suit the purchaser. We need at least a hundred Negro truck gardeners and truck peddlers about the city. It is surprising that in a big city like Denver not a single Negro vegetable peddler is seen. Our people in the East and South, who feel the yoke of oppression, should do well to come to Colorado, buy some of this cheap land, and in a few years they will be rich. There is every chance out here, both for the enjoyment of right, and making money. Get out here in the West. Get into the lines of business that all classes of citizens are, and then do your best. CHEYENNE NEWS CHEYENNE, Wyo., June 29, 1909. Editor Colorado Statesman Perhaps the most profitable happening to a people is the unexpected. When the man (?) in Denver DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, JULY 3, 1909. State Hist & Nat Hist Society State House. tronizing Th RADO THE JOURNAL DENVER, COLORADO, let out the yell against the Negro here. The report of the coming of soldier, its echo was heard away up the Negro soldier to Fort Russell brought forth tears, groans, protests and much clap trap from a certain class of white, and was a source of anticipated pleasure among our people. It was openly announced that many public places would be closed to them. But our boys have come back to Fort Russell, they have been seen, and as they always do, have conquered their most rabid detractors and foes. Their conduct has been above reproach. They appear a magnificent body of well trained and disciplined gentlemen. Much credit is due Chaplain Prioleau for this work. He has been an always conscientious worker and he has been helped by a body of earnest soldiers who believe in their manhood and desire to honor their race and defend their country. May their stay at Fort Russell be a season of pleasure. Last week saw the social side of Cheyenne appear at its best. The many good people (and we mean both races) turned out to welcome and entertain the Colorado Federation of Colored Women's Clubs in their sixth annual convention. There were forty-six delegates present when Madam L. M. Froman of Denver rapped for order. It is a matter of regret that we cannot give in full the doings of this body of highly intelligent and cultured ladies. Governor Brooks delivered the address of welcome and complimented the thrifty Negroes of the West and expressed great pleasure in being privileged to meet so many good and true women. He said: "A race with such noble and brilliant women cannot be kept down." It was an address full of encouragement, and roused the enthusiasm of all. But this earnest band of women soon got down to work and the various papers and reports were replete with good suggestions for the "lifting as we climb." The President and all the officers were conscientious in the discharge of their duties. This undoubtedly marks a red letter year for the Colorado Colored Women's Clubs. The visiting guests were treated to a sumptuous banquet at the Searchlight Club and an automobile drive about the city. Many very complimentary expressions were heard among the visitors on the cordial hospitality of Cheyenne people. The convention closed with the re-election of all the old officers a deserved compliment. REX. 1909. Paris, France.—At the Buffalo Velodrome, Thursday week ago, Major Taylor, of America, won the ten-mile race in 24:4625. Taylor is one of the best and fastest cyclists in the world. Cheyenne, Wyo., June 30.—Informations charging Harry Allen, a Negro; Ed. Richards, a Negro; with felonious assault, for shooting H. Goings, a Negro, and George Green, a Negro, with burglarly, have been filed. The Negroes are comparative strangers in Cheyenne, and none is a member of the Ninth cavalry, which recently arrived at Fort Russell. The turmoil that has characterized Lincoln Institute, Mo. has been practically closed by the reappointment of President B. F. Allen until his successor is appointed and qualified. Along with Prof. Allen eight of his faculty is dropped and it seems to be the opinion of many that the much needed house cleaning at Lincoln will mean a great boost for that institution. George Walker, of Williams and Walker, has changed his summer resort from Lakewood, N. J., to Mt. Clemens, Mich. Every one hopes for the better. He is improving slowly. It is doubtful if he will be able to appear this season. Shipp and Rogers are preparing the new show so it can be handled with a single or doubled star. It also has Brown and Nevarro in the line-up, and also a number of new faces. Albany, Ga., June 21.—The grand jury in the United States court last week returned a no bill in the case of Minor E. Jackson, of Mitchell county, charged with peonage. This is a case that attracted a good deal of attention at the time of the arrest of Jackson, who is a member of one of the most prominent families in this section. He was given a commitment trial shortly after his arrest and bound over under a $5,000 bond. Last week Collector Loeb appointed Richard Johnson and Walter A. Mason to day inspectors in the Customs Service. They had formerly occupied positions as clerks in the Customs House, and in a letter to Hon. Chas. W. Anderson, Collector of Internal Revenue, the Collector of the Port stated that he was very glad to be able to promote these two ccolored clerks Mr. Mason was for years secretary of the Colored Republican Club of the City of New York. New York, June 19.—Ex-Judge R. S. Lovett, vice-president and general counsel of the Southern Pacific Railroad and president of the Houston & Texas Central Railroad today prepared an answer to a series of petitions which have been presented to him asking that the employment of Negroes on the Harriman lines in Texas in general, and in the yards of the Houston & Texas Central in Houston in particular, be discontinued and henceforth only white men be employed. New York, June 29.—Joe Gans is not dying of consumption, as has been reported. His wife wired from Baltimore denying the story from the coast, which said that she had written two letters to Willie Keefe saying that Joe was very low and had not long to live. Keefe is the man who trained with Gans for many of his important battles, and he claimed to have received a letter from Mrs. Gans saying that Joe was coughing a great deal and could not hold out much longer. Later she is said to have wired that Joe was in a critical condition. Lexington, Ky., June 27.—Announcement was made here today by W. G. Frost, president of Berea college, that the entire amount of $400,000 to build the Lincoln institute, the proposed industrial and normal training school for Negroes, had been pledged and that work on the new buildings should shortly begin. It was only necessary for the officials of Berea college to raise $50,000, as $350,000 was pledged by Mrs. Russell Sage, Andrew Carnegie and others, provided Kentuckians would pledge the remainder. When it was practically an assured fact that the money would be forthcoming, agents representing the new school set about to find a site, and recently a tract of 600 acres was purchased in Shelby county. The new school will be run in connection with Berea college. Washington, D. C., June 29. Five bishops of the African M. E. church, who complained to the interstate commerce commission that they were discriminated against by Southern railroads and by the Pullman company in transportation, dining facilities and sleeping car accommodations, have been informed by the commission that their complaint was not warranted. It was alleged by the complainants that the day coaches furnished for Negro passengers in the Southeastern states were not equal to those provided for white people; that Negroes were denied sleeping car accommodations; and that they were refused food in the dining cars solely because of their color. It is held by the commission that undue discrimination or prejudice was not shown, and the complaint therefore was dismissed. N.O. 42 EQUAL ACCOMMODATIONS The equal accommodation suit which has been pending before the corporation commission for some time was brought to a close Saturday when all the railroads of the State, excepting the F. S. & W., were requested to set aside an entire coach, with smoking apartment and separate toilets, for the accommodation of Negro passengers. This is a distinct victory for the committee which appeared before the commissioners because some of the railroads reluctantly furnished half of a jim crow coach. But when we remember that the "Jim Crow" law as enacted by our first legislature distinctly said, "equal accommodation," though sepaate, we think it a disgrace that part of the citizens of the State are forced to go before any kind of a body and ask that the law be enforced. Complete separation is as much desired by our people as whites, but we demand in that separation equal accommodation to chair, pullman and tourist cars, or on the other hand a repeal of the infamous jim crow law in the State of Oklahoma. And they tell us that the railroads are just as bitterly opposed to the jim crow laws as some other people because of the heavy expense attached thereto. If this be the case, then why don't they extend their corporation purses and assist us in defeating the whole blamed shooting match before the court of appeals at St. Paul? Such assistance is out of the question, therefore it is up to you and me to dig down in our jeans among our dimes and pennies and push such grievance to a final and successful conclusion—successful because we are right.—Oklahoma Tribune. Atlanta, Ga., June 28.—The Negro firemen win under the decision of the board of arbitration to which was submitted the differences between the Georgia railroad and the Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen over the employment of Negroes as firemen. The case was submitted to ex-Secretary of the Navy Herbert. Congressman Hardwick and Chancellor Barrow yesterday and it was announced this morning that a decision had been reached sustaining the road in the employment of Negroes as firemen. Mr. Herbert, who was arbitrator for the road. Congressman Hardwick, who was arbitrator for the firemen signed a minority report sustains the white firemen, but on the question of eliminating the Negro firemen the road has won a victory.

DENVER PHONE 782 1814-CURTIS STREET GOOD WORK ON TIME Social Club ★ PROSECUTION OF SUGAR COMPANY OFFICERS OF THE GREAT MON OPOLY ARE INDICTED BY THE GOVERNMENT. UNDER ANTI-TRUST LAW EVIDENCE BROUGHT OUT IN PEN SYLVANIA SUGAR REFINING COMPANY'S SUIT. New York.—Through twelve men empaneled as a federal grand jury, the United States government Thursday laid the groundwork for another gigantic anti-trust suit in the indictment of the American Sugar Refining Company as a corporation, six of its directors and two prominent lawyers. The defendant company and the individuals were charged with conspiracy in restraint of trade under a criminal clause of the Sherman anti-trust law which provides as a penalty upon conviction a fine of not more than $5,000, or imprisonment for not more than one year, or both, in the case of individuals, and a fine of not more than $5,000 in the case of a corporation. The individuals indicted are Washington B. Thomas, president of the American Sugar Refining Company: Arthur Donner, Charles H. Senff and John E. Parsons, all of New York; John Mayer of Morristown, N. J., and George H. Frazier of Philadelphia. All are directors of the company. The others indicted are Gustav D. Kissel and Thos. B. Barnett, counsel for Adolph Segal, whose plant, the Pennsylvania Sugar Refining Company, was shut down by the trust, and whose fight in retaliation, with the testimony brought out in this suit for $30,000,000 damages, recently settled out of court, largely furnished the basis for the government prosecution. The defendants will answer to the indictments in the United States District Court Tuesday next. The indictment contains fourteen counts, alleging conspircy and restraint of trade. The closing of the Segal plant, the details of the $1,250,000 loan by which this was accomplished and various details of the transaction are recited. The defendant company, it is asserted, controls ninety per cent. of the sugar trade in the United States. A gist of the charges, most of which has been brought out heretofore in the Segal investigation, is that the American Sugar Refining Company and the individuals jointly indicted with it accomplished the control of the Pennsylvania Sugar Refining Company by inducing Segal to borrow from Kissel, acting as a broker and the agent for a lender, unknown at the time the loan was made, whereas the lender was the defendant corporation to borrow $1,250,000 and to transfer to Kissel with a majority of the stock a voting power as the holder of 26,000 shares of stock of the Pennsylvania company. It was further stated that Segal was not aware that the American Sugar Refining Company was the real lender and that he did not suspect the designs of the rival corporation. Segal, as the defendants then well knew, the indictment continues, would be dependent upon the dividends from the business of the Pennsylvania company to pay such interest and repay the borrowed principal and in case the business of that company was shut down, Segal's financial affairs would be put in a ruinous condition and the hold upon both Segal and the company by the defendant would be continued and greatly strengthened. Kissel, it is charged, in pursuance of this power, attended a stockholders' meeting of the Pennsylvania company December 4, 1903 at Philadelphia and voted as a director in favor of the adoption of a resolution closing up that company's business. The indictments further complicate the affairs of the American Sugar Refining Company which was recently forced to settle the suit brought by Segal and only a short time before was heavily fined by the government in the false weighing cases. The action also dispels all doubt as to the government's attitude, which was considered uncertain when United States District Attorney Wise sailed for Europe recently. Jeffery Not to Retire New York—Edward T. Jeffory, president of the Denver & Rio Grande Railroad Company, when seen Thursday at the offices of the road at No. 195 Broadway, strenuously denied that there was to be a "shake-up" on the road, or that he would retire. Socialist Publisher Sentenced Fort Scott, Kan., July 1.—Fred Warren, business manager of the Appeal to Reason, a Socialist paper published at Girard, Kan., was on Thursday sentenced to six months in jail and a fine of $1,500 by Federal Judge Pollock. Warren was convicted for alloged violation of the postal regulations in sending through the mails a printed offer of a reward of $1,000 to anyone who would kidnap ex-Governor William S. Taylor of Kentucky and return him to that state.

Battison of the English department of Colorado College, has resigned to accept the head professorship of the same department at Acadia College, Wolfville, Nova Scotia. A promising gold discovery has been made in Routt county on Rock creek near Whitley in the Rabbittt Ear range which is said to be an extension of veins running through the Gore range. It is now Dr. Shafroth. The University of Michigan on June 24th conferred the honorary degree of L. L. D. upon Gov. John. F. Shafroth of Colorado, a graduate of the law school in 1875. R. A. Ballinger, secretary of the interior in President Taft's Cabinet, and Congressman E. A.

Matsubara, Japanese consul at Chicago, was a recent visitor in Denver, coming as the guest of the Japanese Association of Colorado and Dr. A. L. Bennett, state inspector of Orientalis. A banquet was given to M. Matsubara and Dr. Bennett by the Japanese Business Men's Association of Colorado. The Farmers' Mutual Lumber and Mercantile Company, organized for the purpose of competing with the alleged combine of local lumber companies, has been incorporated at Grand Junction for $60,000. It will be purely mutual, selling lumber to members only, practically at cost. The headquarters will be at Clifton. A mortgage filed at Pueblo shows that John D. Rockefeller has made a loan of $575,000 on property held by the Pueblo Realty Trust Company. The loan is made from Rockefeller's private fortune, and it is said to be purely as an investment. The realty company is an auxiliary of the Colorado Fuel & Iron Company. The Colorado Springs Mining Stock Association has elected the following officers for the ensuing year: President, F. F.

McGraw. The physician was sued for $10,000 damages for alleged mistreatment of the boy, who fell from a horse at Palmer Lake and broke an arm. Will McCann, a railroad man of Bailey, Colo., and Teddy R. Slate, a cowboy of Doyle, Colo., while looking after cattle on Razor creek, in Gunnison county, were attacked by a female bear and two cubs. Mr. McCann shot one of the cubs, weighing 90 pounds, with a six-shooter. Teddy Slate wounded, the mother bear, but could not kill her. The Empson company commenced canning peas at Longmont on the 29th ult., with the prospect of a longer season than usual and a record yield of peas. It is estimated that about 9,000,000 cans of peas will be packed by this company this season. Over 400 hands are employed at Longmont, and the company has factories at both Loveland and Greeley. Papers granting a renewal of the charter of Union colony, which founded Greeley, have been filed and Union Colony, incorporated in 1870, will continue active twenty years more. The organization has been kept in existence for the purpose of rectifying any mistakes in the original deeds made. By 1929 it is believed that all such deeds will be perfected and the organization discontinued. After a discussion of several days, the State Board of Equalization, in session at Denver, fixed the assessment of the Pullman Car Company's property at approximately $414,000, which is an increase of more than $100,000 over the figures arrived at in the preceding valuation. The assessment per mile was fixed at $154, or an increase of nearly $40 over the former amount, the total mileage having been agreed upon at 2,691 miles. While C. W. Gilbert, proprietor of the Gilbert drug store at Loveland, and his assistant, Mr. Brown, were charging a soda fountain tank, it exploded, and the upper portion was thrown across the room, knocking Brown down and breaking Mr. Gilbert's left forearm near the elbow. More ore is being shipped from Ouray at the present time than for several years before. The Union Pacific railroad has secured nearly all the property necessary for its right of way through Fort Collins. CRIPPLE CREEK'S BIG PRODUCTION NEARLY EIGHT MILLION DOLLARS FOR FIRST SIX MONTHS OF 1909. LARGE JUNE INCREASE STRATTON'S INDEPENDENCE MILL FOR FIRST TIME REPORTS TONNAGE TREATED. Cripple Creek.—Including the June output, the production of the Cripple Creek district for the first six months of 1909 has reached the handsome total of 357,703 tons, of the gross bullion value of $7,967,261. The June production, as shown by the accompanying table, totaled 65,500 tons, of the bullion value of $1,376,500, an increase of 7,665 tons and of $15,662 in value over the preceding month. Total ..... 65,500 $21.00 $1,376,500 Dividends of $92,185.04 were paid to the stockholders of record in four Cripple Creek mining companies during June. The companies and the amounts of their respective distributions were as follows: Elkton Consolidated, $34,500; Mary McKinney, $26,185.04; Granite Gold Mining Company, $16,500; Doctor-Jack Pot, $15,000. The dividends paid by close corporations mining in this district were not made a matter of public record. Corporation Taxes Delinguent Denver.—Seven thousand, three hundred corporations, both foreign and domestic, have failed to pay their flat tax assessment, totaling more than $400,000, according to a report submitted to James B. Pearce, secretary of state, by a corps of experts who have been examining the books of that department since the flat tax law became effective. The investigation covers the administrations of Cowie, Holmburg and O'Connor, and the information has been placed in the hands of Attorney General Barnett. Governor Shafroth, when advised of the report, said: "The laws are to be enforced and I shall exert every effort to see that this matter is thoroughly probed, and that prompt action is taken." Denver Postoffice Receipts. Denver.—The Denver postoffice broke all records when it closed a million-dollar year at midnight June 30th. The receipts of the fiscal year show approximately $1,013,000. For the year ended June 30, 1908, the receipts were $946,309.74, showing an increase of $66,690.25. The financial increase is taken as an indication of a rapid increase in population and an influx of healthy improvement on all sides. The money order, registry and special delivery divisions also show a marked increase for the year. All beet pulp to be extracted by the Greeley sugar factory next season, has been contracted at 60 to 80 cents per ton, double the price paid in previous years. So desirable is pulp for fattening cattle and sheep that Field Superintendent Timothy says 100,000 tons could easily be disposed of at the Greeley factory. It is expected this factory will extract 50,000 tons and farmers have made the increased prices in their anxiety to secure the waste product for next year. Work has been resumed on the Nederland dam of the Eastern Colorado Power Company, which was suspended for several days on account of the disagreement between the Colorado Power Company and McArthur Bros., contractors. The dam is now about twenty feet above bedrock, and is going forward at the rate of 600 cubic feet a day, which will be increased to 1,000 cubic feet when the night shift is put on. The dam will contain 126,000 cubic feet of concrete, and will be 186 feet high. The work will be pushed in order to get the concrete in place before freezing weather. Thoroughly organized and working together systematically for the past six months, five clerks of the Hendrie & Bolthoff Manufacturing & Supply Company at Denver stole thousands of dollars from the cash sales of the company, to which each of them has confessed, according to the Denver police.

With the body was found a letter requesting to be buried at his old home. TUMOR OF FOURYEARS GROWTH Removed by Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound Lindley, Ind. — "Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound removed a cyst tumor of four years' growth, which three of the best physicians declared I had. They said that only an operation could help me.

NATIONAL CAPITAL AFFAIRS Congressional Club Losing Members Sartoris Resigns; Family Feud Is Rumor Interesting Pair of Glaring Senators Interesting Pair of Glaring Senators ROOS STICK ROOS ARMN 201 WASHINGTON. — The Roosevelt "tennis cabinet" is to make one more bid for public recognition before it takes permanently to the shelf where it was laid upon the departure of its chief from the White House. Two of its most prominent members in the persons of James Rudolph Garfield, late secretary of the interior, and Gifford Pinchot, chief forester of the department of agriculture, have put their heads together and the fruits of their conniving will be a large and interesting volume entitled "Roosevelt's Administration." ```markdown ``` It is whispered about Washington that other members of the now famous aggregation of comparatively young federal officeholders and all around hustlers from all walks of life whom Mr. Roosevelt invited by successive stages to his council room, luncheon table and tennis court, are preparing to give the public some inside facts concerning the great seven years of the administration recently closed. Mr. Garfield and Mr. Pinchot, however, are the first to be actually discovered at their task. The work of directing the conserving of the forests of the country has CONGRESSIONAL CLUB SOCIAL AMBITION ULTRA-SMART women in the congressional set in Washington have virtually withdrawn their support from the Congressional club, and the organization faces either extinction or humdrum monotony, which nobody dared to predict when the club was formed just before the close of the last session of congress. Trouble has been brewing in the club these many months, but it was formally brought before the body only at the last meeting, just before many of the officers were about to leave the city for the summer. It came to a crisis when certain members failed to pay their annual dues. As the club has leased a fashionable home in K street and the rent man and the grocer have to be dealt with before long, dues are a matter of vital importance. Behind this practical phase of the situation lies another, which is casting ALGERNON SARTORIS has resigned as secretary of the United States legation at Guatemala. While ill health is given as the reason for his action, it is rumored that a family squabble is the direct cause for his getting out of the diplomatic service. There is a story that Secretary Root, who is connected by marriage with the Grant family, was opposed to Mr. Sartoris' appointment to the diplomatic corps, but that President Roosevelt was responsible for the young man receiving the post at Guatemala. Mr. Sartoris, at the breaking out of the Spanish war, showed that he carried the blood of his illustrious grandfather, Gen. U. S. Grant, and joined the volunteers for service. He SENATE SENATORS ALDRICH and La Follette do the glaring for the senate, while the tariff fight is on. The Rhode Island senator has a cold, glittering glaze, as becomes a man who believes in money and lots of it. The Wisconsin senator has a fussy, fighting glaze. It is both a glare and a gloat, and if the senate can stand for the phrase, it "gets Aldrich's goat." The senate leader begins to get nervous just the moment the Wisconsin glare is turned on him. He tries to glare in return, but soon leaves for the senate cloakroom where he sputters, instead. It is not dignified to sputter in the senate chamber. No one who will tell knows what else he does in the cloakroom. Wheu La Follette sits still Aldrich can stand him and glare in return. These two men are not only on op- been laid aside for several days while the chief of the forestry bureau is laboring with might and main with the late secretary of the interior in writing the accomplishments of the Roosevelt regime for the printer. The book will contain a complete and detailed account of the things done at the White House the last four years of Mr. Roosevelt's occupancy of the office of president. There will be a fairly definite account of what took place in the inner councils of three years previous, for although the "tennis cabinet" did not get well along in its organization until some time after Mr. Roosevelt's presidential career started, owing to the tenacity of President McKinley's so-called "kitchen cabinet," consisting of Henry Cabot Lodge and others, its members were not long kept in the dark as to what had gone on before their advent to Roosevelt intimacy. Hurdles which the beef trust investigators were compelled to take, inner talks at the White House during the brewing of the Russo-Japanese war, the coup which made Roosevelt a great peacemaker, his wrestles with congress over the railroad rate bill, the knocking out of the Northern Securities merger, the growth of the policy which blanketed great stretches of western country with forest reserve rule, and many other interesting things will be set forth for the country's contemplation by those persons who knew much concerning them, now that the injunction of secrecy has worn away. gloom into the hearts of the "would be's" who have lately come to Washington to preside over congressional homes and had been led to believe that membership in the Congressional club would fling open to them the doors of every smart household in Washington. It is a matter of the club's history that the ultra-smart women in the congressional set joined the club in the beginning because they were persistently urged to do so in order that their names might give the organization something of the social standing it needed. These women freely paid the $10 entrance fees, with manifestly no intention of hobnobbing with the women who came from many rural districts throughout the country and jumped at the chance to belong to the club. That the really smart women in the congressional set at Washington do not care a rap for the Congressional club or its success has been made plain. True, they have been induced on rare occasions to visit the clubrooms, but only when some particularly important affair has been given—as, for instance, a tea in honor of the president and Mrs. Taft, shortly before Mr. Taft was inaugurated. was chosen an alde de camp by Maj. Gen. Fitzhugh Lee, and had become a captain when honorably mustered out of the Third United States volunteer infantry, at the end of the war. In June, 1904, he married Mille. Germaine Cecile Noufflard, a grand-daughter of Sir Charles Halle, a distinguished English musician. Before the marriage Mr. Sartoris joined the Catholic church. The origin of the feud in the Grant family is not related by those of the ex-president's descendants who admit its existence. It is asserted, however, that the quarrel has been on for some years, and that the family is divided into two bitterly hostile camps. At the head of one faction is Mrs. Nellie Grant Sartoris, favorite daughter of President Grant and almost idolized by the American public at the time of her marriage to Sartoris, the British diplomat, during her father's stay at the White House. The other faction is led by Gen. F. D. Grant, whose popularity with the American public is a matter of more recent growth. posite sides of the big question, but they are opposite in temperament, character, training, and every other respect. Senator Aldrich bunched a few street railroads in his native state, sold and resold them until he can afford to be United States senator as long as he lives. Senator La Follette grabbed at fame with one hand and carved out a lecture career with the other in order to make a living on the side. He wants money only to blow it in on his show. Senator Aldrich has a sublime faith in the wisdom of men with money, and he fights for them as he would for principles. What is best for them he considers best for the whole country. If they prosper and are satisfied, it follows, according to his doctrine, that all must be prosperous and contented. Senator La Follette takes the other end of the game. He is for the man who has very little money, for the one who individually works for every dollar he gets. And they stand up in the senate about six feet apart and fight it out along these lines. BEST METHODS OF PREPARATION AND SERVING. New and Old Recipes Mingled—Beef Burrs a Change from the Ordinary Ways of Cooking Steak—Salad for Lamb. Beef Burrs.—For a family of four: Get two pounds of round steak about one inch thick and pound out flat; then cut into strips two inches thick and six inches long. Make a dressing of stale bread, one egg, one onion, a small piece of butter, sage, salt and pepper to taste. Spread this dress- one inch thick and pound out flat; then cut into strips two inches thick and six inches long. Make a dressing of stale bread, one egg, one onion, a small piece of butter, sage, salt and pepper to taste. Spread this dressing on strips of meat, roll up and pin each of the burrs with toothpicks so as to hold them together firmly so they will look like little roasts. Put butter and lard in a kettle and brown nicely on both sides, then add water enough to cover. Simmer for one hour and a half. Enough dressing will boil out to make a nice brown gravy. Salad with Lamb.—One of the most epicurean salads to serve with roast lamb is the pulp of oranges sprinkled with chopped mint leaves and flavored with lemon juice and sugar. This is put on small lettuce leaves. Stewed Sweetbreads.—Parboil and carefully remove the skin without breaking the sweetbreads. Put them in a stewing pan with two ounces of butter, a tablespoonful of chopped onion, a tablespoonful of chopped parsley, one clove, a bay leaf, a tablespoonful of Worcestershire sauce, a half teaspoonful salt and half a pint of white stock. Stand the pan on a moderate fire and simmer for 30 minutes. Dish the sweetbreads. Wash a pint of French peas in cold water, add them to the sauce, let the whole come to a boil, skim the fat from the surface and pour the sauce and peas around the sweetbreads. Pork Roast.—Select a nice lean pork roast, wash and put in roasting pan; salt and add water, then place about a dozen whole cloves on the roast and roast until tender. This gives the roast a delicious flavor. Brussels Steak.—Cut four onions in thin rings; soak half an hour in cold water; drain between towels and fry quickly in deep hot fat. Pour them over hot broiled steak. Stuffed Corn Beef.—Take a piece of well-corned rump or round, about six or seven pounds; make several deep cuts in it fill cuts with stuffing of bread crumbs, soaked, squeezed quite dry, butter, good pinch of cloves, allspice, pepper, a little finely chopped onion and a little thyme. Then tie up tightly in a cloth and saturate it with vinegar. Boil about three hours, Orange Cookies. Nearly everyone who tastes these for the first time begs for the recipe. Required: Four ounces of corn flour, two ounces of butter, two ounces of brown sugar, two eggs, the grated rind of two oranges, the juice of half an orange. Sieve the corn flour. Mix the sugar with the grated orange rinds. Beat the butter and sugar to a soft cream. Whisk the eggs until frothy, then stir them slowly into the butter and sugar, and beat the mixture well. Add the corn flour very lightly, and next the strained orange juice. Grease some small patty or fancy tins, and fill them half full with the mixture. Bake the cakes very carefully in a moderate oven for about 15 minutes, or until set and delicately colored. Allow the cookies to cool a little before lifting them out of the tins, as they break easily. Toby Pudding. Required: Stale bread, one pint of lemon or any other kind of jelly. Cut the bread into neat, small dice. Fill a mold or basin rather than a quarter full of the dice, pour over the hot jelly, and leave it until set. Dip the mold into warm water and turn the jelly out. Lemon jelly is usually the nicest and most of the other varieties are improved by the addition of a squeeze of lemon juice. Some people, instead of using the full quantity of water directed on the packets, use half milk and half water, but I think a still nicer plan is to use all water, and serve a little well-whipped cream with the jelly. When Ironing Sleeves. To successfully iron the present long sleeves on shirt waists, you must slip your left hand into the sleeve to the point, spreading the fingers to flatten out sleeve; begin by ironing the point, then turn hand over (the sleeve with it), and iron other side, gradually working upward by ironing first on one side then on other, keeping your fingers spread, and pulling your hand back as you proceed. You will have a nicely ironed sleeve, tucks and insertions notwithstanding. Oatmeal Macaroons Two and one-half cups rolled oats, two teaspoons baking powder, one cup sugar, one tablespoon butter, two eggs, one teaspoon vanilla. Drop by teaspoon on buttered tins and shape a little. Bake ten or fifteen minutes. Take off tins before they get brittle. Green Peppers as Salad Holders. A nice way to put salads in a lunch box is to use green sweet peppers. Remove the seeds after cutting off the small end of each pepper and stuff them with the salad.

THE UNDER-SHIRT-WAIST MAN UNDER the influence of a combination of fashion dictators and hot weather manufacturers the shirt waist man of a few years ago has given way to the undershirt-waist man. The new creation is even more comfortable than its predecessor, as it is sleeveless and cut very low in the neck, but it is likely to prove just as objectionable to fastidious hotel and summer resort proprietors. It is strange how utterly regardless some folks are of the natural inclinations and comforts of humanity. What could be a more refreshing hot weather sight than a group of musecular men in silk embroidered, sleeveless, low-scolloped undershirt-waists, seated with a bevy of female beauty in corresponding evening dress in a fashionable dining room, when the thermometer is registering ninety degrees? A LONG LANE. SURPRISING indeed is the decision of the Board of Arbitration to which was referred the troubles arising out of the railroad strike in Georgia several weeks ago, in which the Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen sought to compel the Georgia railroad to discharge all of its Negro firemen. As all other efforts to settle the matter failed and led to violence, the case was referred to a board of arbitration consisting of former Secretary of the Navy, Hilary Herbert, arbitrator for the road, Congressman Hardwick, arbitrator for the white firemen, and Chancellor Barrow, as umpire. A decision was reached sustaining the road in the employment of Negro firemen, the report being signed by Mr. Herbert and Chancellor Barron; Congressman Hardwick dissented. The arbitration was under the provisions of a Georgia statute and is binding on all parties. The award provides that the railroad, when using Negroes as firemen or as hostlers' helpers, shall pay them the same wages as white men are paid in similar positions Negroes are so used to being given the short end of court and arbitration board decisions, that the Georgia decision comes as a decided and refreshing surprise. Its binding character places the white labor unions of Georgia in an entirely new situation. The law and order forces of the State would now be against them in case of further violence aimed at the road or at its employes while on duty. Of course, if a Negro fireman is driven out of a community or the State by secret threats, while the law may be overcome, the white unions may escape responsibility. It still remains to be seen if Georgia authority can break down the feeling which gave rise to the strike. CHRISTIANITY AND THE CHINAMAN. THE country has been greatly exorcised for several weeks because of the murder of a white girl, of prominent family connections, in a Chinese rooming house in New York City, and in the room of a lodger for whom she had long entertained a more than friendly interest. Elsie Sigel, after the example and under the direction of her mother, had been devoting herself to Christian mission work among the Chinese residents of New York, just as many other white American girls are doing in all of those cities where the Chinese population is large enough to form a separate racial colony. Her contact with the Chinamen and the peculiar influences and relations resulting had created a strange affection between her and one, if not two, of her supposed pupils, and letters found since her death reveal the fact that an ardent love affair was in progress, crossed by deep jealousies aroused in the breasts of rival celestials. Several days after her disappearance from home her dead body was found in the trunk of one of her Chinese lovers in his room as described, while the owner of the trunk had also disappeared. He has not yet been found, and although his rival and another Chinaman have been placed under arrest, the mystery of the crime remains deep and tangled. The feelings of white people all over the country, and especially of those not in sympathy with the missionary idea, have been greatly shocked by these developments, and a general discussion of this new phase of the race question has resulted. It is widely declared that the Chinaman is seldom sincerely converted to the Christian religion, but that he shrewdly pretends to be in ready sympathy with the missionary efforts in his behalf, provided that the missionary in the case is a young and fair American girl, whose individual service is required by each Chinaman. The fact is overlooked by these young missionaries and their sponsors that the Chinaman is deeply rooted in his own religious faith, and that his natural prejudices do not permit him to understand, appreciate or care for the claims of the Christian religion. He is very willing to become familiar with the English language and American customs, but, as a rule, religious persuasion fails to break him of gambling or any of his native habits or beliefs. This discussion permits of a plain comparison of the natural possibilities of Christian activity among all other foreign non-Christian elements and among Negroes. It is a part of the history of the South that white missionaries have never been harmed by Negroes among whom they have been appreciated and loved and that their works have been accepted and made fruitful. Our criminals come from those who have been neglected. The lesson to white Christians is worthy of deep reflection. HE national character of American people is an individual quantity, entirely apart from any other expectation in comic effect in other countries. Just what an American will do, under a given situation, is always sure to be something of a surprise—it is his habitual custom to do the unexpected. Did you ever know any one, but George Washington perhaps, to do any serious crisis with what might be called solemn self-importance? Humor is the American's weapon, a concealed weapon, which his friends never fear, and his enemies can never locate. I suppose if I had been born in England the best I could do would be to write jokes for Punch, which, good as they are sometimes, are never quite young enough to dodge the American retorts. I suppose that is the triumph of American humor, that you can't outwit it, and yet there is never a sting or a wound in the sharpest rap of Yankee humor. There is a good deal in building a situation that is funny, but there is a good deal more in being able to meet it with a quick spirit of serio-comic understanding. The unsmiling American, with his dry contradictions of what might be expected of him, is a natural feature of his temperament—it needs no strenuous labor to contrive a humorous effect, for he is actually funny in the presence of his most important responsibility. The American who makes the most laughs for his countrymen rarely laughs outwardly himself. He enjoys the fun of being funny as naturally as he eats his dinner or sleeps, when he has time. Making laughs is part of his daily occupation; it makes trade brisker for him, it discovers the real metal of life and betrays the counterfeit. There is no age in a country that makes a common exchange of laughter the ordinary course of business. How can a man grow old in a country where all are "boys" together, who can't help themselves. Wit is not exactly the word that best makes the American laugh, so much as the boost there is in the laugh that is made in it. The Americans laugh with each other, not at each other; that is only the comic germ in this country, and is the busiest microbe we have. It carries our serious, our financial burdens, our family troubles, our failures and our ambitions for us. We are proud of our comic germ, because it does such a heap of work for us that we could never do in any other way. The laughmakers are the entire American race, on and off the stage. When is Man Really in Love By BETTY VINCENT digs them up every other day to see how they are getting on. Naturally, the flowers never come out, and not infrequently what might develop into a genuine love in a man's heart is killed by the great interest in his intentions shown by the woman. A girl has every right to make herself attractive and agreeable to a man whom she thinks she would be willing to marry. Which, by the way, does not mean to make herself cheap. And there is one thing she may be sure of. The fact that a man spends his time with her is the best indication of his interest. A big city like Chicago provides many legitimate diversions for young men, and whenever a man calls as often as you will let him, there can be no better evidence of his admiration. Do not make the mistake of letting one man monopolize you, however, no matter how much you like him. Jealousy is the spur of love, and a man wants the girl that he thinks another fellow is seeking, just as you want the hat you and your chum see in a milliner's window, and she thinks would be becoming to her. Be sweet, be natural; don't copy any woman, no matter how much you may admire her; keep in touch with what is going on by reading the papers, and if a man calls on you and enjoys himself well enough to come back again and again, be sure that he is in a fair way to fall in love with you. But he doesn't need any help. If half a million American settlers should suddenly pull up roots and migrate in a body to some foreign land, the event would be heralded as one of the most epic movements of the century. Yet this is virtually what has happened, with little notice and less comment, in the last six years, says Agnes C. Laut in the Century. In less than six years 388,000 American farmers have pulled up stakes in their native states and moved from Wisconsin, Minnesota, the Dakotas, Nebraska, Arkansas and Oregon, across the invisible line of the international boundary to free home-steads in the Canadian northwest. Moreover, 100,000 Americans have gone north as investors, speculators, miners, lumbermen. A railroad traffic manager and a customs officer both told me the same thing; very few of the American homesteaders came in with less than $1,000 cash; many came in with capital ranging from $3,000 to $10,000. The capital brought in by the investing classes varies from the $10,000,000 placed by the Morgan banking house in the Canadian Northern railway to the $200,000 and $300,000 capital placed in actual cash by the land and lumber and fish companies. Average the American newcomer's capital at $2,000, and the American's invasion of Canada in the last six years represents in hard cash an investment of a billion dollars. From what I saw in a leisurely four months' tour of Canada—first by canoe, 1,500 miles among the settlers of the frontier beyond the railroad, then by rail twice across the continent—I have no hesitation in saying that a billion-dollar average is too small by half. T Americans Are Laugh-Making Race By WILLIAM COLLIER How can I tell if a young man loves me? This is the burden of many letters which I receive daily from young girls. Now, there can be but one answer to the question. If a young man loves you he will tell and save the trouble. Not perhaps in a day or a week, but a genuine love cannot be concealed for any great length of time. The girls who wants to know at the first sign of interest a young man displays in her whether he is going to propose, is like the child who plants flower seeds and If half a million American settlers should suddenly pull up roots and migrate in a body to some foreign land, the event would be heralded as one of the most epic movements of the century.

De Priest. Mrs. Emma Gardner of 2602 Welton street died at the county hospital last Saturday. The funeral services were held from the Douglas parlors, 1110 Eighteenth street. Interment at Fairmont. Mrs. Gardner leaves a host of friends to mourn her loss. The annual sermon of the Masonic fraternity was held at Zion Baptist church last Sunday afternoon and was largely attended. Rev. Over preached a very interesting and appreciative sermon in which the lessons of Masonry were wisely prefaced. Eugenia Baxter, the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. S. H. Baxter, died Monday of pneumonia. The funeral was held Wednesday afternoon. Rev. J. B. Beckham of Central Baptist church officiating. Mr. and Mrs. Baxter and children wish to express their heartfelt thanks to those who were so kind in their bereavement. T. W. Ashford, a well known politician and business man of Cheyenne, Wyo., was shot and killed last Saturday by George Allen, whom Ashford had ejected from his saloon. Deceased leaves a wife, three children, and a large circle of friends to mourn his sad demise. David F. Fitzgerald, one of the leading tamale vendors in Denver, has been actively in the business since 1884. Before coming to Denver he sold them in Wyoming, Nevada and in many Colorado towns. Boys, start a peanut stand. If properly handled it means a fortune and independence. The sisters of Eastern Star, an auxiliary of the Masons, gave a very successful entertainment at Dania hall Tuesday evening. The attendance was very fair but not just what the society deserved. A very excellent musical and literary program was rendered by some of Denver's best local talent. Refreshments were served. Mrs. Lavina Thomas-Hazell, aged twenty-one years, and wife of the newly appointed pastor of the People's Presbyterian church, committed suicide last Monday evening in the parsonage by taking carolic acid. She was a bride of only two weeks and came to Denver about two weeks ago with her husband from St. Louis. No motive is given for her rash act. Once upon a time Colored boys were employed as "bell hops" at the Albany hotel. Then no bad stories of stealing filled the pages of our dailies. Now white boys are employed, and stealing on a wholesale scale has been going on there. An organized gang of robbers has been unearthed by the city detective force. Be patient, boys, and this may come back. In the meantime, keep busy and be honest. It pays a hundred fold. The divorce case of Rector vs. Rector was finally disposed of on the 28th of June. The application of Mrs. Rector for permanent alimony came up for hearing on that day and was denied, the court ruling that she was not entitled to any alimony on account of her gross misconduct. The decree also destroys the effect of her homestead entry on the county record of the property at 2431 Stout street, thus leaving the plaintiff, Mr. Rector, the sole owner of the same. SELLS GREEN GOODS. A. S. Britton of Arvada is demonstrating that there is a legitimate profit in green goods. He has a nice tract of land near the city and is selling from fifty to seventy-five dollars' worth of fine fruit, berries and garden truck in the Denver market every day. This as a practical example in hustling. Now, for the next one. SERVICES OF BETHLEHEM, BAP TIST CHURCH, SUNDAY, JULY 4TH. 9:45 a. m., Sunday school. 11 a. m., Covenant meeting. 3 p. m., preaching.

Healthful Fruit That May Be Served in Many Novel Ways, and That Will Be Enjoyed and Looked For. A dish of fresh fruit eaten at the early morning hour before other feed. is a splendid fillip to moody stomachs. Such children as may eat fruit should begin their summer breakfasts in this way, for though not jaded exactly, their small appe- is a splendid hippo to moody stomachs. Such children as may eat fruit should begin their summer breakfasts in this way, for though not jaded exactly, their small appetites often need a deal of coaxing. If they rebel at the outset, try novel ways of serving the fruit and call the various dishes by a childish name. These tricks will woo a liking for wholesome things when maternal command won't. Here are some fruit arrangements with names suited to little tastes: Strawberry Nests.—Select the biggest, brightest and most perfectly ripened strawberries from the basket or garden. Leave the caps on these and if free from sand place them without washing in a circle on a green leaf in a small plate. Then fill a paper cone with powdered sugar and dump this in the center of the strawberry ring, striving to keep the sugar in cone shape after the paper is removed. Then teach the child how to lift each strawberry by the cap and dip it into the sugar. Eating the fruit in this way is a lot more fun than using a spoon and it might be useful sometimes to call the dish snowy mountains. Variety of mental image is the spice for child interest. Cherry Soldiers.—This is a fascinating hot weather fill. Fill a saucer with cracked ice and lay thoroughly ripened cherries, stems and all, on this in rows. When they are chilled add a little butter plate of powdered sugar and set the dish before the king. He won't leave anything but the stems and stones! Apricot Boats.—Peel three or four apricots, halve them evenly and chill them on ice. Then put a small quantity of whipped cream in each boat and sprinkle it with sugar. Apple Goosey Ganders.—These plaything goodies are made of large firm apples, cored and stuffed with gooseberries, and baked and eaten with sugar and cream or cereals. Baste them with melted butter and hot water while cooking. Jungle Fritters.—A delicate batter made in the usual way of flour, milk and eggs is the foundation for this dish. To this perfectly ripe bananas, cut in thin slices, are added, and instead of salt a tablespoonful of sugar The fritters are fried to a delicate brown in boiling lard, and with a little practice the batter may be dropped in to effect fantastic shapes. Fairy Dew.—Just orange juice, if you please, strained and served in big doll cups for the foolish babies who won't take it in any other way. Any one of these little dishes would be pretty for a child's party, and if the names were printed on little menus the enjoyment would be all the greater. Sixteen Punch. Grate the rind from six lemons and one orange into two cupfuls of sugar and pour over it one pint of water. Stir until the sugar is all dissolved, boil ten minutes and strain. While hot add one-half tumbler each of currant, raspberry and blackberry jelly. When cool add one-half tumbler each of grated pineapple and preserved strawberries and one-quarter pound of cherries. Cover and set aside over night. At serving time turn the mixture over a quart of shaved ice in a punch bowl and add the juice of the lemons and orange, one-half pint of grape juice, one bottle each of ginger ale and sarsaparilla, and two quarts of apollinaris. A Radish Novelty. Who has ever eaten cooked radishes? Their devotees declare them more digestible than raw ones and fully as appetizing. Here is the way one woman prepared them to convince doubting friends: She cut large white radishes into rounds about a half inch thick. These were boiled in slightly salted water—not too much—for about ten minutes and were then fried in hot butter until tender. They were highly seasoned with pepper, salt, a little sugar and just a drop of vinegar. Cocoanut Drops. One cupful sugar, one-half cupful butter, thoroughly blended. Add two eggs, one-half cupful milk, one teaspoonful vanilla, two level teaspoonsful baking powder sifted with two cups flour, and, last, one cupful shredded cocoanut. To have a very palatable change, you could add cinnamon and ginger. Drop by spoonful on buttered tin and bake in a good hot oven. To Iron Pongee. When laundering any article made or pongee, iron it without first sprinkling it, and you will find it looks far newer and silkier than when dampened and ironed in the usual manner. —Woman's Home Companion.

All hail, thou grand and great ancestress of thy glorious brood of half a hundred hallowed states; Extending thy expansive form across a continent's wide fields; One wing deep dipping in Atlantic's brine, the other o'er Pacific's bosom spread; Low trailing thy tail-feathers in the frozen ocean of the north— And weapons of destruction for the foe that would assail the smallest of thy progeny! Well Holdest thou thy haughty head aloft within the starry sky For though but young, thou art a giant grown, of conscious might, acknowledging few peers. May'st thou forever tranquil dwell, in harmony with all thine own, And unmolested by the powers of earth—respected by the strong and honored by the weak: And may'st thou never know defeat, nor learn to bow thy head in shame. True Meaning of the Celebration of the Glorious Fourth EAGLE GAIN are the Stars and Stripes, the national emblem of American liberty, justice and independence raised on high. Again the lavish and vivid display of the national colors awakens recollections of our country's struggles and Stripes, the national emblem of American liberty, justice and independence raised on high. Again the lavish and vivid display of the national colors awakens recollections of our country's struggles—of her enforced battle cry of freedom. Again children "rally round the flag" to uplift their childish voices in its praise and honor; to sing songs of triumph and rejoicing over the nation's victory. Once again, as of yore, loud peal the bells—ringing out the glad news that it is the anniversary of the nation's birth; commemorating the magnificent achievements of those early noble patriots on that first, glorious Fourth day of July. Statesmen and orators are called upon to exercise their highest powers of eloquence in order to reimpress upon the hearts and minds of citizens now enjoying the rights and duties conferred upon them by an independent form of government, to uphold those lofty ideals, and to defend those basic principles of unity and fraternity, of political independence and freedom from arbitrary rule and despotism for which brave men willingly laid down their lives, that the country which they loved, and for which they fought might as a nation live. The Declaration of Independence was received with every demonstration of public rejoicing. We are told that it was read in public from the platform of an observatory in the rear of the statehouse. On the same day a brilliant fete was given in honor of the nation's birth on board the frigate Washington in the Delaware, the festivities terminating with a ball in the evening. The declaration was read at the head of each brigade of the Continental army stationed at New York, and received with joyful huzzas. Again on the tenth day of July, the declaration was read in the courthouse at White Plains by order of the convention then in session. The king's coat of arms was brought from the hall where his courts were held and burned amid the acclamations of the multitude. Thus we find that whatever form these public demonstrations of rejoicing over the nation's birth might take, they were always preceded by a careful exposition of the cause for that rejoicing. The celebration of Independence day, in those early times, was the exultant overflow of emotion due to the intelligence, clearly and pointedly conveyed to the popular mind, of the resolute resistance of the country's leaders to tyranny that should make America free. Given a true conception of the causes, the principles and influences that should be re-examined and complated on every recurring July 4, the American people would impart a meaning and dignity to their festivities on the holiday of national holidays such as would preclude an indulgence in mere senseless, nerve-racking, noisy demonstrations; without thought of the "why?" or "wherefore?" of the occasion. Too many of our youth, notwithstanding the lessons of American history learned at school, are apt to forget the real significance of the nation's birthday when they deem it sufficient to vent what they are pleased to call their "patriotism" in deafening horn-blasts and in the free and careless use of reeking explosives and dangerous firearms. Nor is the great mass of our foreign population which is ultimately to be consolidated into the American nation properly informed respecting the antecedent forces of the country to which they have come for refuge and for freedom; so that at sight of our waving banner, and at sound of our national airs, a true sense of loyalty may be kindled in their hearts and fanned into the sentiment of burning but righteous patriotism for the land of their adoption. For the weal of the American democracy depends upon the integrity, the fidelity, aye the unswerving allegiance of every national unit. Just as it was unity that gave birth to the nation, so it is unity that must preserve the nation. "In union there is strength," is as true to-day as it was a century or two ago. "Together!" is the call of the age—and it is the call especially to be heeded by us of this glorious American republic. Hence, while we move in step to martial music, with the Stars and Stripes flung to the breeze, while we dine or picnic in honor to the "nation's day;" indeed, whatever may be the form of our rejoicing over our country's liberty, we must have a care lest we forget the real reason of our merrymaking and self-gratulation. Independence day is ours with all the glory of the past and all the splendor of the present; freely we have taken, and continue to take all the advantages, the rights, privileges, progress and advancement that were ushered into being with the nation's birth. Freely, then, let us give. Not a rhetorical prating of patriotic devotion to country, that is no more than a self-interested alliance of party, not munificent contributions for public demonstrations with- out personal and private dedication to the national cause, not these mistered expressions of patriotism, but the enfranchised individual's efforts to preserve the vigor and purity of the institutions of his city, state or country, the result of true patriotism which is "the noblest passion that animates a man in the character of a good citizen." personal and private dedication to the national case, not these intermed expres- sions of patriot- ity, but the en- hanced indi- nal's efforts to serve the vigor purity of the institutions of his state or coun- tract the result of patriotism which is "the blest passion that animates a m in the char- ter of a good benefit." Vital Facts of Independence. The Fourth of July is rated a great day in the nation's history, not because the Declaration of Independence was first read to the Continental congress on that day, but because it was adopted on that day. It is true that a resolution declaring the colonies to be free and independent states was adopted July 2, but the declaration, written by Jefferson and afterward amended by the congress, was not adopted until July 4. It was signed the same day by John Hancock, president of the congress, and Charles Thomson, the secretary. August 2 it was signed by all the members of congress present—50 members. Six names were afterward attached. Col. McKean did not sign it until 1781. Thus the mere fact of signing the declaration is of small importance. The adoption was the vital fact. Elderly persons who want to sleep, although they may pride themselves on their kind hearts, still feel that they would like to touch off a bunch of firecrackers that was tied to the pig-tail of the Chinaman who invented them.

The new direct primary law of California has been sustained by the Supreme Court of that state. Over a score of starters are assured for the Flag to Flag endurance and reliability automobile contest, which will be run from Denver to the City of Mexico, starting from Denver in October. The supreme court, United Commercial Travelers, at its meeting in Columbus, O., decided to send a delegation to the trans-Mississippi congress at Denver in August to protest against the proposed parcels post. Under a decision rendered by the Supreme Court of California, William B. Bradbury, a millionaire, must serve one year for perjury. He was sentenced for giving false testimony in a suit involving land in Marin county. Harry Watson, an undertaker, and four companions, two of them women, while riding in an automobile at Seattle, were held up by two masked men and robbed of all money and valuables, $400 being taken from Watson alone. The 225-mile motor boat race from Vancouver, B. C., to Seattle, via Victoria, Port Townsend and Tacoma, was won by the Soya, of Seattle. The Sunset, also of Seattle, was second, and the Clansman of Winslow, Wash., Mrs. James Wood, captain, third. Articles of impeachment against State Insurance Commissioner John N.

In the federal court at Lincoln, Neb., on the 30th ult., Judges Van Devanter and Munger granted an injunction to restrain the new state banking board from putting into effect the bank guaranty act. The constitutionality of the statute will be discussed in opinions to be filed later. The Supreme Court of California has invalidated the will of the late Adolph Sutro and ordered that the estate, valued at millions, and consisting of the Cliff house ranch in San Francisco and the San Miguel ranch, be distributed among the heirs. The former property is situated along the ocean beach and includes the famous Sutro Heights and resort. The Downieville stage, which left Nevada City, Cal., for Sierra county, carrying five passengers was held up and robbed by a masked highwayman near Nevada City. The robber took $90 from the passengers and the Wells Fargo Express box. The mail pouch was not disturbed. Five years ago the Downieville stage was robbed at the same spot by a lone highwayman. The Union Pacific and Southern Pacific railroads are preparing to spend thousands of dollars in parking and beautifying right of way. The work will include the planting of trees and grass all the way from Omaha to San Francisco and from Kansas City to Denver and Cheyenne. Several years will be required to complete the job. The plan is to plant pine and elm trees alternately for a distance of over 2,000 miles and to sow alfalfa along the route for a distance of 100 feet on each side of the track. GENERAL NEWS. Arrangements have been effected for the importation of cattle on an extensive scale from Spanish Honduras into the New Orleans market. Official orders have been issued at Winnipeg, Manitoba prohibiting any United States circus from parading on the streets of Winnipeg unless it flies a British instead of an American flag. Mary Elizabeth Tucker, daughter of the late General John A. Logan, has been granted a divorce in Chicago from her husband, Colonel William F. Tucker, United States army, retired. A tabulation of the new business of the twenty-five leading life insurance companies made by the Spectator shows that during the ten years ended with 1908, the new business paid for was $10,167,764,000. Of this 43.48 per cent terminated by lapses and surrender and only 19 per cent. ended naturally by death, maturity or expiration. The amount retained on the books was less than 37 per cent., and the excessive lapse ratio reveals the effect of the recent life insurance troubles. Emperor William's Meteor. steered part of the time by his majesty himself, won the fifty-one mile race from Kiel to Eckernoerde, covering the distance, in five hours and thirty minutes; and Iduna, owned by the Empress was third. Broughton Brandenburg was acquitted in Justice Fitzgerald's court in New York City that has been hearing the charge against him of grand larceny in selling to the New York Times for $500 an article purporting to have been written by the late Grover Cleveland.

After being officially declared dead, and after his body had been placed on a truck to be removed to the morgue from the City hospital at Worcester, Mass., Joseph Remillard, aged forty, was brought back to life by the use of electricity and is reported to be improving. Following decisions by the Supreme and Common Pleas Courts that the 2-cents-a-mile rate law passed by the Pennsylvania Legislature was unconstitutional, the Philadelphia and Reading Railway Company announced an increase in passenger rates from 2 to $2\frac{1}{2}$ cents a mile on all one way tickets, to take effect July 3rd. President Taft paused in the course of an after-dinner speech to eighteen hundred graduates of Yale, gathered at the annual alumni dinner on the 30th ult., to issue a serious note of warning to Congress and to the leaders of the Republican party. The President declared that if the party failed to live up to its promises and the expectations of the people it would be relegated to the position of a minority opposition. The Militant Suffragettes made a thirteenth vain attempt to secure an audience with Premier Asquith on the 29th ult. Mrs. Pankhurst, who headed the deputation from the Woman's Parliament, struck Chief Inspector Scantlebury, who refused to receive them. For two hours the whole district was in an uproar, the police dispersing the crowd and arresting women by wholesale. Altogether 112 women were arrested. The steamer Arctic of Walter Wellman's North pole expedition arrived at Tromsoe, Norway, June 27th from Spitzbergen with her flags at half mast, bringing the news that Knud Johnson, one of the two men who remained at the Wellman camp this winter, had perished in the pack ice and that the airship had been destroyed by a heavy storm. Wellman is now at the camp and declares that if he cannot proceed this year he will next. NEWS FROM WASHINGTON. Senator Tillman's amendment to the tariff bill providing for a duty of 10 cents a pound on tea was defeated in the Senate by a vote of 18 to 55. A call on national depository banks for a return to the treasury of government funds aggregating approximately $25,000,000 was made June 29th by Secretary McVeagh. Of this amount, $9,000,000 has been called for July 15th and $16,000,000 for August 15th. Appointments under the new census law will be made by competitive examination, but this requirement is not made applicable to supervisors and enumerators. Only one person from a family will be admitted under the examination and this provision is made general to all branches of the civil service. A provision of the census bill as agreed on by the conference committee requires that hereafter all examinations of applicants for positions in the government service from any state shall be conducted in the state in which the applicant resides, and that persons taking the examinations shall have been actually domiciled in the state for at least a year previous to examination. At a meeting of the recently organized Colorado Republican Association in Washington, it was shown that scarcely 100 of the 131 government employees in the city charged up to Colorado are legal residents of that state. Colorado, it was stated at the meeting, has been imposed on, men who are entitled to Colorado patronage being crowded out by pseudo Coloradans, who falsely give their residence as Colorado. The secretary of the interior has vacated the order of withdrawal under the reclamation act in connection with the White river project, Colorado, so far as it related to about 507,560 acres of land, and restored that amount of land to the public domain, where not otherwise withdrawn, reserved or appropriated. These lands will become subject to settlement on and after September 3, 1909, but not subject to entry, filing or selection until October 30, 1909, at the land office at Glenwood Springs, settlement or occupation prior to September 30, 1909, being expressly forbidden. In the course of an answer to questions in the Senate, Senator Aldrich said he would support the corporation tax amendment as a means of defeating the income tax. He believed it would be repealed after two years, or the rate lowered. An increase of 344 in the total of railroad casualties, but a decrease of sixty-five in the total of persons killed, as compared with the figures for the corresponding quarter last year, is shown for the months of January, February and March, 1909, by an accident bulletin of the interstate commerce commission. our country's birth is so near at hand, to read once more of that which was done in the principal cities in the way of rejoicing by those who stood within the shadow of the scaffold, because of daring to declare themselves free from all allegiance to the king. As a matter of course, the first rejoicing was in indulged in when the old bell in the steeple of Independence hall rang out its notes which proclaimed "Liberty throughout all the land, unto all the inhabitants thereof;" but it was not until the eighth of July that any grand demonstration was made by the people. Then, as we are told "from the platform of an observatory erected near the Walnut street front of the state house by Rittenhouse many years before for the purpose of observing a transit of Venus, John-Nixon read the Declaration to a vast concourse of people gathered from the city and surrounding country. When the reading was finished the arms over the seat of justice in the courtroom were torn down and burned in the street; in the evening bonfires were lighted, the houses were illuminated and it was not until a thundershower at midnight compelled the people to return to their homes that the sounds of gladness were hushed." Washington received the Declaration at headquarters in New York, on the 9th of July, and caused it to be read at six o'clock that evening at the head of each brigade. It was heard with attention, and welcomed with loud huzzas by the troops. Mr. Todd in his "Story of New York" writes regarding the scene: "One of the brigades was honored by the presence of the commander-in-chief. It was drawn up in a hollow square on the historic Common. Within the square Washington sat on horseback, while an aide in a clear voice read the Declaration. Next morning, at White Plains, the provincial congress listened to the reading, and at its close pledged themselves to sustain it "at risk of their lives and fortunes,' and then sent a swift messenger to the New York delegates in congress, empowering them to vote for the Declaration. They had it proclaimed by beat of drum in White Plains, and ordered that it should be publicly read from the city hall in Wall street, within reach of the guns of the British fleet." In Boston on the 17th of July the Declaration was publicly read, and concerning the celebration, Mr. Gilman says in his "Story of Boston:" "The day of the Thursday lecture was set apart for the reading of the Declaration, and after a good sermon the congregation followed the crowd to King street. The town was thronged by crowds in holiday suits, with joy beaming from every eye. Artillery was drawn up in front of the jail on Court street, and infantry lined the adjoining streets. Exactly as the clock struck one, Col. Thomas Crafts appeared on the balcony of the state house, and read the Declaration, the great audience listening with attention to every word. When he sat down a shout, "God save our American states!" was heard in the hall, to which the throng below responded with three hearty cheers; the bells rang, cannon were discharged from the shipping and from the forts and batteries, the infantry followed, and Mr. Bowdin gave the sentiment, 'Stability and Perpetuity to American Independence!' The better class of citizens attended a banquet in the council chamber; much liquor was distributed to the populace, according to the old custom, and the king's arms were taken down from the town house, custom house, courthouse and other places and consumed in a general bonfire in front of the Bunch of Grapes tavern." There was rejoicing throughout all the "rebellious colonies;" but, unfortunately, no detailed account of the festivities can be found. Watson, in his "Annals of Philadelphia" writes regarding the first Fourth of July celebration in that city, 1777: "The 4th of July, being the first anniversary, was celebrated at Philadelphia with great display and joy. About noon all the armed ships and galleys were drawn up before the city, with their gay streamers flying. At one o'clock, all the yards being manned, they severally fired 13 guns. An elegant dinner was given to the congress, the civil and military officers, etc. The Hessian band played some fine music, and at each toast there was a discharge of artillery. Towards evening several troops of horse, a corps of artillery and a brigade of North Carolina forces, were drawn up in Second street, and reviewed by congress and the general officers. At night there was ringing of bells and a grand exhibition of fireworks on the Common and an illumination of the houses. The face of joy and gladness was universal." THE FOURTH OF JULY HERE'S a look of joy on the face of the boy Who is counting his nickels and dimes. For the Day draws near— 'tis nearly here— The happiest of happy times. T When bombs jar things, balloons take wings And fireworks light the sky, The boy is there with his annual scare He's in charge of the Fourth of July. Since Liberty's bell first pealed the knell Of the chains that monarchy cast, The boy has raised Cain, has caught the refrain Flung on from the mirrored past. The day has been his, without query or quiz. It has echoed his loudest licks. Young South, young North whooped up the Fourth In the spirit of Seventy-six. We've all been boys, and we love the noise Of the nation's natal day; Our hearts go out to the riotous rout And the smoke of the mimic fray. So we yield the stage to the younger age On this day of no restraint; 'Tis the boy's own how to its Tis the boy's own day, we bow to its sway— The Fourth and its patron saint. Valley Forge Restored Valley Forge Restored NDEPENDENCE day, 1909, sees blood-stained, historic Valley Forge restored, and not only restored, but greatly beautified, improved and turned into a public park for the enjoyment of the people. T It is a fortunate thing that the time has passed when the pilgrim to Valley Forge in search of sights and relics of the historic camp, perhaps the most hallowed of our revolutionary reminders, was obliged to trump over fields of none too friendly farmers and be constantly annoyed by signs warning of trespassers. Apart from which, the fatigue of such a trip was great, as there were no roads leading over the camp ground and no signs marking the way to the historic spots, only fields of waving grain or woodlands overgrown with underbrush. Consequently the hardest kind of walking over the steep hills was required to view but a few of the sights. Only the young and physically robust were therefore able to enjoy the pleasures of Valley Forge. Through the untiring efforts of a number of patriotic men, all this has been changed and the state of Pennsylvania has been induced to assume and complete a task which was first offered and refused by the federal government, although the undertaking was clearly within its province, as the camp ground of Valley Forge is a relic which should belong not only to Pennsylvania, but to the entire nation, as every patriotic American must wish for its preservation and would feel proud in being part owner. But whether by Pennsylvania or the national government, it must be at least gratifying to the nation to learn that the neglect of a century has been atoned for, and under the able and enthusiastic direction of the Valley Forge Park commission, a work of almost incalculable historical value has been done on the bleak heights above the Schuylkill, to which Washington's barefoot army crawled when the defeat of Germantown left them no refuge. Fort Washington and Fort Huntington have been restored. An iron tower 105 feet in height for observation purposes is being finished on Mount Joy, and from this tower not only a birdseye view of the entire camp ground and beautiful surrounding country can be had, but also Philadelphia, 20 miles distant, can be made out. A beautiful commemorative chapel of the Episcopal church has been built on the spot where Washington, in his direst hour of distress, knelt in prayer. The headquarters of the commander in the Isaac Potts house have been purchased, completely restored and turned into a revolutionary museum. Roads have been built which make possible quick communication between all points of the park, besides which, lawns and flower beds have been laid out and planted and even a guard house has been built to further heighten the park effect. Proposed Confederate Memorials. The United Daughters of the Confederacy have undertaken to carry to a successful conclusion two patriotic projects. One is the erection on the battlefield of Shiloh of a monument to the memory of the confederate soldiers who fell in one of the greatest battles of the civil war. The other is a memorial in the confederate section of the National cemetery at Arlington to commemorate the valor of the southern soldiers buried there. T GOES without saying that every boy and girl in Philadelphia knows perfectly well how the signing of the Declaration of Independence was celebrated in that city, and yet it seems well, now that the anniversary of I BROWN PALACE HOTEL Absolutely Fire-proof European Plan. $1.50 and Upward.

It's a sign the kidneys are sick and cannot keep up their never-ending task of filtering the blood. Lame back, back ache, dizzy spells and urinary disorders are warnings that must not be overlooked.

Fearful Eczema All Over Baby's Face —Professional Treatment Failed. A Perfect Cure by Cuticura. "When my little girl was six months old I noticed small red spots on her right cheek. They grew so large that I sent for the doctor but, instead of helping the eruption, his ointment seemed to make it worse. Then I went to a second doctor who said it was eczema. He also gave me an ointment which did not help either. The disease spread all over the face and the eyes began to swell. The itching grew intolerable and it was a terrible sight to see. I consulted doctors for months, but they were unable to cure the baby. I paid out from $20 to $30 without relief. One evening I began to use the Cuticura Remedies. The next morning the baby's face was all white instead of red. I continued until the eczema entirely disappeared. Mrs. P. E. Gumbin, Sheldon, Ia., July 13, '08."

There was a terrific explosion, and the shoemaker was blown out through the door almost to the middle of the street. A passerby rushed to his assistance, and, after helping him to arise, inquired if he was injured. The little German gazed in at his place of business, which was now burning quite briskly, and said: "No, I ain't hurt. But I got out shust in time, eh?" A Tall Bear Story. "Why, once, do you know, I found a bear inside a hollow log. Well, of course, I couldn't get at him to shoot him, and the log was too heavy to move. I didn't know what to do.

THE Colorado Statesman 1824 Curtis Street THE WOMAN'S CORNER NEW PILLOW COVERS LATEST MATERIAL CLOSELY RESEMBLES LEATHER. Burlap Tops Are Embroidered and Finished with Fringe—Pretty Flowered Lawns and Scotch Ginghams with Ruffles. The girl who wishes to render the verandas of the summer cottage attractive should take time by the forelock and make up an assortment of pillow covers. One of the most serviceable tops is of a new material which closely resembles leather and comes in red, blue, green and leather shades made up plainly and fringed with imitation leather fringe. Burlap covers are embroidered with flower, foliage and bird designs, or with water and rural scenes, and are finished with fringe made by fraying the edges of the face and the back and the back of the pillow top. Lingerie pillows are of muslin all over embroidery, of batiste banded and frilled with embroidery and of dotted and sprayed swiss. Any of the flowered lawns are pretty if finished with wide ruffles, and so are the Scotch ginghams striped in two tones of one color. Some of them have a broken tartan plaid border that makes an effective ruffle. Scotch madras in two tone or solid colors furnishes a serviceable and smart looking pillow top, and there are most attractive plain French linens in such shades as wistaria, catawba, champagne, Van Dyke brown and old rose. Forty serim is an excellent material. SMART AND USEFUL DRESS. Pretty Garment in Gray Cloth or Serge Suitable for General Wear. This is one of the smartest designs of the season for a really useful dress. Our model is in silver birch gray cloth, but the design might be KING'S WORLD equally well carried out in fine serge; in navy it would be very useful for general wear. The plastron at front is ornamented with buttons in sets of two; silk braid trims the foot at the sides and back. The slaves have a wrapped seam up outside of arm, and are ornamented with buttons, braid trims the bodice below the small round yoke, which is of tucked net, with high collar of the same. For Fluffy Hair. The girl whose hair will not curl naturally, can save herself many a bout with hot tongs by wetting the hair thoroughly with equal parts of green soap and water. This should be carefully rinsed off with fresh water. While the hair is still damp it can be fluffed by running the fingers through it or by tying narrow ribbons tightly around the head, as a fillet is worn, and combing up the hair between. Unless the hair has a tendency to oiliness, the green soap mixture should not be used too often, as it is drying in its effects. Pretty Slip Covers. Slip coverings for the furniture are especially pretty this year. They come in the figured cretonnes and cost no more than the dull linen ones which have been used for so long. for a porch pillow cover, and is charming when decorated with Dalmation embroidery in oriental color combinations with embroidery silk. Cream colored scrim is used to carry the Brenta embroidered, which are done without a pattern, as is also the German cross stitch known as serial work. For the Doeblinger work, done on colored monks' cloth, the eight-fold Germantown yarn is used to develop art nouveau or oriental patterns. ```markdown ``` Jabot of net.

The mother who has many birthday parties to give should by all means invest in a candle board. It is a much more convenient and more pleasant way to trim a cake than to stick candle holders into it, with the danger of grease mingling with the iceing. These boards can be bought, but if you have cake pans of a certain size it is wiser to have them made. They should be circular and big enough for the cake to slip down easily between the rows of candles on the outside. The outer rim of the board is filled with small holes, into which can be screwed as many tiny candle holders as are needed. Often these boards are made of burnt wood with an appropriate motto burnt into it as "Many happy returns of the day." "Another year, another leaf, is turned within that volume brief." If one does not wish to go to the expense of a decorated board, any carpenter will make you a large circle of white pine or any other wood, which can be finished with a white shellac, or can be given a coat or two of white paint, covered with white enamel so that it can be easily scrubbed. New Embroidery Stiletto. A man in New Jersey has earned the gratitude of all women who do embroidery by designing an embroidery stiletto which will punch any size holes in a fabric. By any size, of course, is meant any of the sizes used in that sort of work. The device consists of a small rod, tapering into a sharp point and equipped with a handle. Along this rod runs a gauge device held in position by a screw. The nearer this gauge is to the point of the stiletto, the smaller the hole made and, conversely, when it is run back toward the handle, the circumference of the holes may be increased to that of the rod itself. It can thus be made to pierce any size holes, from small eyelets to comparatively large circles. Heretofore, unless a woman had an assortment of stilettoes of various sizes, and few had such a variety, only one size hole could be made in a fabric with any degree of accuracy, and neat, graduated circles were found only in bought designs. Shoes for Summer. The new fabric shoe is one of the most attractive of the new footwear. The shoes are shown in all the popular shades of cravenetted cloth, with the flowers of the same color, but sat in striped. The white shoes of the coming summer are to be of linen, canvas and kid, and many will be very high boots, although the white-beaded tie will be popular. Suede in all colors still holds its own. One dainty house slipper in delicate colors has set at one side a bewitching little bow of a matching chiffon. Use Plain Flower Pots.
