Educa Ass THE WORK OF THE UNITED DIANS. THE ASSOCIATE THE COLORED MAN THE N. E. A. Again, after a lapse of fourteen years, The National Education Association is in Denver. Doubtless, there were surprises on both sides. The many thousand of teachers who came from all parts of the United States, together with other visitors, will find a most marked and wonderful change in the growth and development of our state. Those who came into the West and to Colorado for the first time will find many very beautiful and interesting things to take back to the school children this fall. On the other hand we of Colorado have been surprised with the immense throng of teachers who came not alone to see the sights of the great West, but to participate in the discussion of the many live questions coming before the association. The N. E. A. is one of the greatest bodies of American citizens to convene at any time. They have to deal with a phase of our national life, the education of our children and their work is watched with interest. Every phase of our school life is represented in this organization—the kindergarten, the primary, the high schools and universities. Each has its department and special attention is given by men and women to the development of better methods of imparting instructions. THE INDIANS. The work of the United States among the Indians was the opening meeting of the week. Teachers from all the Indian Schools were present together with many of their pupils. They brought with them splendid displays of educational work along all lines among the wards of the nation. The rendition of Hiawatha was a highly entertaining bit of work and revealed a new and novel feature in the Indian awakening. At Unity Church where the sessions of the Indian Teachers was held a bevy of handsome young girls from Carlisle School gave a practical demonstration of what they are learning in the way of domestic science by preparing and serving a delicious luncheon. They had excellent exhibits in bead work, pottery, drawings, and many other useful arts. The work among the Indians in the past seems to have been the extermination of certain vicious elements, and now the government --- is preparing to reconstruct the race along useful lines. It is a great work and the zeal and energy manifested by the teachers and others interested in this department gives great promise for the future. A very important move on the part of the government is its effort to suppress the spread of tuberculosis among the Indians. This dread disease is doing more damage to the Indians than anything except liquor. THE ASSOCIATION. There were over eight thousand visiting teachers and almost as many friends present at the auditorium when Governor Shafroth delivered a most cordial welcome to the forty-seventh annual meeting of the National Education Association. Every state and territory was represented. The address was full of the cordial, hospitality Colorado always extends to her distinguished visitors. Superintendent Marks of the Louisville, Ky., school, responded. His remarks clearly expressed the joy and pleasure of the teachers to be again on the "erest of the Rockies." President Harvey in his address to the association dealt particularly with Industrial Education in the public school. His idea seemed to be the preparation of the youths for practical affairs of life through industrial training along all lines. The necessity of making the association international in character was one of the leading questions. It was passing strange that with the great number of Negro schools and teachers throughout the country that no place was given on the program to a colored educator. With such splendid men as Dubois, Bowen, Miller and a host of others, it would seem that the race should have found a place somewhere on the program. Why not begin now to secure a representative for the next meeting. THE NEGRO QUESTION. It would be impossible to hold so large and important a meeting as this without in some way bringing up the Negro problem. It was very curtly disposed of by the golden haired delegate from Florida, whose fame rests in this hair, when she pleaded against female suffrage "for fear the ignorant Negro wom- DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, JULY 10, 1909. State Hist & Nat Hist Society State House tronizing Th RADO THE JOURNAL DENVER, COLORADO, en would vote." There a black woman in Florida whose kinky hair covers more grey matter than Miss Gibbs' fluffy golden locks. But, it remained for President Abercombie of the Alabama University to talk in a sane manner on the education of the Negro. Speaking on the need of national aid in the education of the Negro, he said: "As a consequence of man's failure, in past ages, to appreciate fully the rights of his fellowman, we are confronted today with the race problem, a menace to government, an obstacle to advancement a hindrance to learning, and the standing adversary of sectional reconciliation. From the porticoes of high heaven angels of peace and love watch with fear and trembling the process of the solution of this most perplexing problem. "If the continued inaction of the national government renders it necessary for one or both of the races there to receive meager educational advantages, it is best for all concerned that, for a season, the advantage should go to the dominant race. Why? Because the best way to secure universal education for the Negro is to give universal attention to the white man. The more you educate people in the right way, the more willing and eager they become to give education to others. Educate the white man properly, and the white man will educate the Negro. Of course, it is desirable and necessary, where possible, that the education of the races should proceed under conditions equally advantageous." THE COLORED MAN AND THE N. E. A. It seemed a mater to be regretted that the number of colored teachers attending the association was small, and another regret was the manifest indifference of our local people in visiting the sessions. Fourteen years ago when the association convened in Denver, our people made a special effort to receive and entertain the visiting teachers. They appeared then as a part of the citizenship of Denver determined to aid in the welcoming of delegates. This year nothing, except possibly in isolated individual cases, was done. Naturally the great mass of our people looked to the Intergraduate Association to take the lead in this matter. Composed as it is of the many graduates residing in Denver, it was presumed that they would delight in doing honor to our visitors. But, then, why worry over such The N. E. A. brings together each year those who are busy all the time with the perplexing problem of the boy and the girl—the developing of closer relations between the school, the home and the church. The work of this body should be thoroughly studied and clearly understood by our people. The same efforts that make better --- white boys and girls, better Indians, will like-wise make for good among us. It is to be hoped that the coming of the National Education Association will be for great good among our people, and that there will be more sympathy between the teacher and parents. UNVEILING OF PAUL LAURENCE DUNBAR'S MONUMENT UNVEILING OF PAUL LAURENCE DUNBAR'S MONUMENT Dayton, Ohio, June 26.—At Woodland cemetery this afternoon a memorial to the late Paul Laurence Dunbar, the Negro poet, whose fame extended to many climes, was unveiled in the presence of a distinguished assemblage. The memorial is a large Miami Valley bowlder, bearing a bronze tablet with the mere inscription, "Paul Laurence Dunbar," and a verse from his death song. A number of prominent men participated in the simple ceremonies and addresses were made by Dr. Davis W. Clark, of Cincinnati, who has taken deep interest in the Dunbar project for several years, as president of the National Dunbar Memorial Association; and President Scarborough, of Wilberforce University. Davis W. Clark, of Cincinnati, who has been a visitor in the city since the Wright brothers celebration, remained to witness the ceremonies, which were started by Rev. Dr. G. A. Funkhouser, of Banebrook University, who delivered the invocation. The Philharmonic Society next rendered a prayer written by the poet and gave several additional numbers later. Presidend Scarborough spoke in part as follows: "Today we are gathered for an unusual purpose. It is not that a memorial to a great citizen is an extraordinary occurrence, but it is remarkable that such a gathering should be in memory of a man not only of humble birth, but one of the darker race—one with the sable skin, the badge of the servitude that has been the Negro's lot for so many years. "But today at this hour race and color are ignored, and this beautiful city, the Gem of Ohio, is proud to honor its famous son, who has helped to give it fame—to honor him because of his worth, his genius and his work. "The old adage that a 'prophet is not without honor save in his own country' is another instance of the falsity of so many popular sayings, for in this city where he was reared, he is most highly respected, and in this memorial today we not only honor an individual man of color, but we do honor to an entire race and to mankind." The dedicatory service was in charge of Dr. Clark, of Cincinnati. Dr. Clark came here to attend the funeral of the poet, and suggested a memorial. On his shoulders largely rested the collection of funds. Today it proved his pleasure to formally dedicate the monument and he delivered a brief but appropriate address, touching on the life of the sweet singer, Dr. Davis stated that Dunbar was another emaciator of his race; that he had set it free from the imputation that the crudities and vulgarities of the minstrel stage are the best products of which it is capable, and that he had reflected in his verse the warm hopefulness and quaint philosophy of cabin, field and hearthside. A pathetic feature of the dedication was the presentation of a deed to the lot in Woodlawn cemetery to the feeble old mother of the amented author. Recently the grave of Dunbar was removed from an isolated location in the cemetery to a spot on the brow of the hill overlooking the city. A willow tree was also planted on the plot with considerable ceremony. Judge Charles W. Dustin was chairman of the committee having the memorial dedication in charge. Pottsville, Pa, June 28.—Clarence Penn, colored twelve years of age, while bathing in the lower Tumbling Run dam became exhausted. He called for help, and Clarence Shuster, white, of the same age, who with a score of boys was sporting in the dam, sturck out to rescue Penn. Both became embraced in a death grip, sank in the deep water and were drowned. Brownsville, Texas, June 28. It was announced here today that the federal authorities will send two companies of white troops to occupy Fort Brown formerly held by Negro soldiers, who were discharged from the service. This is the first move on the part of the government to fill places of the discharged soldiers. Frankford, Ky.,—The Board of Trustees of the Kentucky Normal and Industrial Institute for colored persons, which is located here, recently awarded the contract for the new administration and trades buildings to Thomas L. Brooks, a well-known colored contractor of Frankfort. Brooks' bid was $28,975, and was the lowest and best bid received The contending bidder was the Capitol Lumber Company, which put in a bid of $34,000. Plans are now being prepared for the heating and lighting plant at the institution, and the award for its installation soon will be made. Progressive Arizona. Very soon railroads will be so thick in Cochise county that you can't step out of a night without catching your foot in a frog and getting run over.—Tomhstone Epitaph. NO. 43 Located on a tract of a tract of about forty two miles north of Bakersfield, Cal., is a Negro town named Allensworth. The land was purchased by the Pacific Farming Company by Afro-Americans. Last week a colored man saw a small white boy battling for life against the tide of the Potomac, went to the resue, and saved the boy after a desperate struggle. Exhausted, the man slipped through the throng and quietly went away, proving himself to be as modest as he is brave. The new sanitarium and hospital which was recently opened for the reception of patients at New Orleans is one of the few institutions of its kind owned, operated and supported by our people in the United States. It is called the Negro Baptist Sanitarium. Mayor Bohrman delivered an encouraging address on the opening day. At the South there are 2,000,000 children in the schools, 40,000 youths in the higher institutions of learning, 30,000 teachers, 20,000 students learning trades, 1,500 students pursuing classical courses, 1,200 pursuing scientific courses, 17,000 graduates of the race, 200 academies for higher education, 1,000 physicians, 1,800 books and pamphlets written by our people, 800 lawyers, 6 magazines. Boston, Mass., July 3. Rev. Joseph Hardy, a blind Negro preacher, was lynched some time last night because it is alleged he was stirring up strife between the races. The lynching of the preacher is closely connected with the killing of the Negro, Will Caneker, by a mob Wednesday morning. Caneker was lynched for killing William Leonard, a prominent planter, and it is alleged the blind preacher instigated that crime. Normal. Ala., June 26.—The commissioners of the Agricultural and Mechanical College for Negroes, at Normal, have announced the appointment of Prof. Walter S. Buchanan to the presidency of the institution, succeeding the late Prof. William H. Council. Prof. Buchanan is a graduate of several institutions. There were more than a dozen applicants for the position, and Buchanan was the youngest of the lot. His ideas for the future of the college provide for the fuller development of agriculture and the mechanical arts among the students. NEWS FROM The CAPITAL Lieut. U. S. Grant to Be Busy "Janitor" "What Is Your Totem?" Society's Latest Doors of Famous Old Hotel Are Closed SUMMER RESORT SOCIETY WASHINGTON.—Washington is socially a "deserted village" these days. Drawn shades and boarded front doors are the features of all the uptown streets and are general that they make an open door or habitable looking house appear like an oasis in a desert; and the modish looking women whom one meets in F street in the shopping hours of the morning seem like visitors from some planet where the rule "all play and no work" applies, at least to the feminine part of its population. Quite a colony has established itself at Chevy Chase proper, with the Chevy Chase club within easy distance. Miss Eleanor Terry, Miss Louise Foraker and Miss Anna Cockrell are much in evidence these summer after- LIEUT. ULYSSES S. GRANT III., grandson of the famous general and former president, is about to become the janitor of the greatest office building in the world. Capt. John H. Poole, corps of engineers, has been relieved of the duties of military aide to President Taft and superintendent of the state, war and navy building in Washington, and it is expected that Lieut. Grant will take his place—both places, as they go together. WHAT is your totem?" is the latest question in Washington swaggerdom, and if you cannot answer offhand the inference is you have been dead to the world of fashion for at least two weeks. Nowadays, in lieu of the familiar monogram and the banal crest and the erstwhile much coveted coat-of-arms, society dames and damsels, taking the cue from the aboriginal natives of the country, go out to the fields and, selecting whatever bug or bird or beast strikes their fancy, promptly pre-empt it as their "totem." The pendulum has swung the other way, and society with a golden halo has elected to become America of the Americans. If, for instance, a butterfly is chosen as the tootem, then milady proceeds to have it embossed on her note paper and to have it embroidered on her dainty lace trimmed lingerie. Delicately cut out of silver, the emblem is affixed to her handbag, and to her card case, while a whir of wings flashes across the glittering surface of her toilet silver. Artists of renown are employed to THE Metropolitan hotel, for more than a century southern headquarters at the national capital, with a history almost as long as that of the city itself, has closed its doors for want of a new tenant. The last proprietors did not ask for a renewal of their lease because of the loss in traffic caused by the demolition of the old Pennsylvania railroad station, and the diversion of transients to points nearer the new Union terminal. As the Indian Queen Tavern, the traffic center of the old stage-coach days, the hotel began its career at the time of the administration of Thomas Jefferson. From the courtyard in front of the old building the Baltimore and Philadelphia coaches started each morning, and thrice a week a coach left for the old National road line to Frederick, Cumberland and Pittsburg. In ante-bellum days the servants were all slaves and one of the peculiar customs was the method of summoning guests to dinner. A negro boy was sent forth at mealtimes with a huge gong which he pounded for ten minutes as he paraded. noons and always collect a crowd for tea after tennis. Mrs. Nicholas Longworth will remain with Representative Longworth until congress adjourns and then will join her sister-in-law, Countess de Chambrun, at Hamilton, Mass. Brig. Gen. Clarence R. Edwards, U. S. A., and Lieutenant Commander Cieland Davis, U. S. N., are keeping bachelor hall in the general's home, while Mrs. Edwards and her young daughter will remain in Niagara Falls with Mrs. Porter until it is time for them to go to Lenox. All the embassies are closed and their occupants are scattered far and wide, only an occasional belated secretary being seen attending to his last duties before hastening to join his chief. Mr. De Thal of the Russian embassy has returned from his leave of absence and will join the charge d'affaires, Prince Nicholas Kovdacheff, at Manchester-by-the-Sea. The ambassador, Baron Rosen, is in Europe, and Dame Rumor has it that he will be transferred to another post. Baroness Rosen and their daughter, Baroness Elizabeth Rosen, are with him. Lieut. Grant married not long ago the daughter of Senator Root of New York. Since that time he has been stationed in Boston in the engineer department. Under the law a member of the engineer corps must superintend the state, war and navy building. This is, without exaggeration, the largest office building in the world. It extends from Pennsylvania avenue to the Oval and from Executive avenue almost all over town. Branches of the enormous building can be found on almost any street within a mile. The state, war and navy building in itself is enough care for an ordinary man, but there are also the annexes, which are arranged without any consideration for the convenience of the superintendent. paint the totem on the sides of the swaggerest runabouts in town, and the idea is so terribly swell that everybody feels a thrilling sense of pride and elation when asked, "What's your bug?" Mrs. Perry Belmont's delicately perfumed notes from Paris are surmounted by a great, big, buzzing bee of gold, his quivering wings poised for flight. Miss Mathilde Townsend's totem looks like a giant mosquito, while Mr. and Mrs. Thomas F. Walsh have for their totem a bird built on hieroglyphic lines. The bird, which looks much like a young robin with bill tightly closed and neck considerably longer than the usual, perched on the Walsh note paper, and also on the Walsh cards of invitation, is sometimes dull blue, sometimes gray on gray papers, and again it comes in glowing gold, and yet again in gleaming silver. Just outside the entrance to the Walsh mansion the bird shows up in the form of a clipped tree of dwarf box. The Walsh totem has additional significance when it is remembered that the Walsh millions were dug out of the famous Camp Bird mine, near Auray, Col. Mrs. Taft on her stationery uses the crest of the United States—the spread eagle, surrounded by a galaxy of thirteen stars—and a similar die is used by the secretary $ ^{c} $ of state on stationery used for official occasions. The present structure was built in the 50s. Just why and how the hotel became so great a favorite with the Southernners has never been explained, but for the last seventy years it has been the meeting place for politicians of the southland. It has catered to that trade almost exclusively and enjoyed the patronage of practically half the southern congressional delegation. Its broad, low ceiled lobby filled with broad hatted frock coated men was far more suggestive of Memphis or New Orleans than of the northern cities. The bar was always famous for its juleps, toddies and sherry cobblers. "Bob" Calahan, the retiring proprietor, found recently among the archives of the house a bill made out for one of the guests of the early days—one Dougherty. Mr. Calahan called attention to the fact that in 1815 the jumping of a board bill was as popular a pastime with a certain class of customers as it is in the twentieth century. Mr. Dougherty had run up a bill of $497.75, mostly for toddies and juleps. It shows a single credit of $60. The proprietor of the Indian Queen had the unsettled bill framed. The price of a toddy in 1815 was two for a quarter. Charles Dickens stopped at the Indian Queen on his Best American tour and mentions the hotel in Marita Chuzzlewit Tubes Easily Put Together Save Articles Liable to Be Crushed on the Clothes Rack. When you iron waists, one-piece dresses and articles liable to crush on the clothes rack, make a number of tubes with newspapers, tie with stout strings and slip the blouse or dress on these holders and hang them on a nail or convenient hook. Once dry, they will not crush so easily, and can be hung in the closet on these holders. Mailing tubes are the best for the purpose, but an old magazine or two papers rolled tightly together answer the purpose. Do not hang ironed towels over each other, for they will not be smooth if packed while still damp. Hang men's shirts by the lower portion, exposing the bosom, neckband and cuffs to dry. Petticoats should be folded but once and hung up to dry around the waistband, which retains some dampness. Handchiefs and starched collars should be laid upon paper or napkins near the fire to dry or in the sunshine. A slight scorch will disappear if the article is placed in the strong sunlight. Iron lace waists upon the wrong side, and when dry fold the waists and cover with old pieces of sheets or wrap in paper. The best plan is to save all shirtwaist boxes for the purpose and keep them filled with tissue paper. A packed shirtwaist is prettier than one that hangs limply in the closet to accumulate dust each day. GETTING BREAKFAST ON TIME Little Hints That Are Time Savers and Worth Being Kept in the Memory Do not be two or three hours getting breakfast every morning. Brush the crumbs from the supper table, wash and relay the needed dishes, cut the meat, and prepare the vegetables you wish for breakfast. Baked potatoes are nice and will cook in less than an hour, even in the morning. You can bake gems at the same time if you watch your fire. If you like hot cakes stir them up at night and put in a little yeast. Add the soda in the morning and see how light and tender your cakes are with neither eggs nor cream. It will save many minutes in a week to put a half bushel of potatoes in a tub of water and wash them with a broom or stick. Let them drip in a basket for awhile, then remove to a box containing sticks to keep potatoes from the bottom and you have a supply ready at a minute's notice. You will find it is planning ahead as well as quick steps that brings meals on time, as well as other things. To Do Up Lace Curtains A good way to do up lace curtains that are badly worn out and will not stand stretching: After carefully mending all holes wash and starch. Then, instead of putting on stretchers, measure on your line the length you want your curtains and tie a cord so curtains will not slip over mark; then put your curtains on and fold through the center so that the edges are even. Pull out each scallop and smooth the curtain with your hands. The smoothing will bring out the pattern and the curtain will lry while you are working at it. Be careful to keep the ends square. Your curtains will look like new. Fruit Dumplings. One-fourth cup of butter; beat to a cream; add three-fourths cup of sugar, beat again. Break in one egg and beat all together. Then add half a cup of rich milk, with one and a quarter cups of flour, sifted with one teaspoonful cream of tartar, half teaspoonful soda and beat all together until creamy. Butter five teacups and put into each a large tablespoonful of preserve. Strawberries, peaches, quinces are nice, or any favorite preserve may be used. Then divide mixture equally in the cups and put in steamer, put cover on tight and steam half hour wituhot removing the lid. Steamed Fruit Pudding Mix a cup of seedless raisins, the same of cleaned currants, the same of shredded citron, and the same of chopped suet. Dust over four tablespoons of flour. Add four tablespoons of brown sugar and a half cup of molasses, into which you have stirred a half teaspoon of soda, dissolved in a tablespoon of water. Stir in a pint and a half of rolled oats, add two well-beaten eggs, a teaspoon of cinnamon, pinch of nutmeg. Pack into a mold, cover and steam for two or more hours (continuously). Serve with liquid pudding sauce. It is very good. Raspberry Cream Tarts. Butter some patty or individual pie pans and line them with a light pie crust. Have ready enough raspberries, carefully picked over and all stems removed. Sprinkle them with sugar, fill the pans and cover with another layer of crust. Bake them in a quick oven. Beat the yolks of three eggs with half a pint of cream and sweeten slightly. When the tarts are cooked lift the covers and pour in the cream. Place them again in the oven for six or seven minutes. The tarts may be served hot or cold, as desired. They are delicious. Marlboro Pie (Fine). Peel and grate six large apples, melt six ounces butter and mix with apples. Add two lemons, the juice and the grated rind, and three eggs, keeping out the whites of two for a meringue; beat eggs well with eight ounces sugar and add to above mixture. Beat altogether and bake with bottom crust only. When cool, beat whites up stiff, add three tablespoons granulated sugar, spread the meringue over pie and brown quickly.

THE presence in Denver this week of a big representation of the teachers of the Nation in attendance upon the convention of the National Educational Association, should be a big inspiration to the people of our city and state, and especially to our young people. The opportunity afforded us to come in contact with so many men and women of brilliant minds, who are devoting their gifts to the intellectual improvement of the coming America, should awaken us anew to our responsibilities and duties. The call of the world is for educated men and women, and what we do for the children of today must become the foundation for the future greatness toward which all intelligent and ambitious peoples are striving. We cannot do too much. PATRIOTISM IF noise is any indication of patriotism, the American people on every Fourth of July furnish undeniable proof that they are unsurpassably patriotic. Perhaps they are no more demonstrative than the people of other nations on their similar respective natal occasions, but certainly they are no less so. And noise seems to have developed as the chief ingredient of their patriotic formula, for where the civic procession, the great orator and the impressive ceremonies used to fill the bill, individual liberty to participate in a free-for-all competition in the creation of excessive noises appears to give greater satisfaction at the present day. A whole city ringing with cracker explosives and reverberating with air bombs, while, as night comes on, the skies are frescoed with lines of variagated fire, is even a more inspiring spectacle than any set exhibition of collective pyrotechnics which the city fathers or any other set of officious moguls can provide. And it is highly probable that these American gods and goddesses of noise comprise the most motley company of racial representatives ever inspired with common motives since the gods of mythology were wont to do their turns on the stage of the mighty Olympus. The least of them are pure Yankees or other descendants of colonial Americans, for they are lost and almost unnoticed among the throngs of descendants of expatriated Irishmen, Germans, Jews, Poles, Hungarians, Swedes, Norwegians, Frenchmen, Spaniards, Italians, Greeks, Turks, Chinamen, African, Englishmen, Scotchmen, Russians and the mongrel offspring of all this Americanized horde. To such a voluntary fraternity of widely drawn elements, noise is the adequate and comprehensive means of communicating a universal enthusiasm, and this, perhaps, is the underlying reason for our manner of expressing patriotism. To measure the depth of this character of patriotism is not a clear and easy task, for it probably would entail comparisons of original native characteristics and present interests, but it is sufficient to know that past experiences have proved it to be reliable. Patriotism, in its highest sense, is the expression or demonstration of one's devotion to his country, and by the measurements that past history has made possible, among all of these elements the Negro has won the right to be ranked among the foremost of patriotic Americans. NATURE FAKING AND OTHERWISE COLLIERS WEEKLY describes a big piece of nature faking recently pulled off in the heart of a made-up African jungle in a Chicago moving picture studio. The piece is to be staged as a photograph of ex-President Roosevelt hunting lions in Africa, and will tend to be an actual reproduction of one of his most exciting and dangerous experiences. The stage-setting was carefully arranged in big jungle cage, and a real, live lion was bought from an animal dealer and turned loose therein. White men, made up to represent Mr. Roosevelt, his son Kermit, his English guide and other members of his parade, a big crowd of Chicago Negroes, stripped and made up like African jungle-beaters and porters, entered the stage jungle. The COLLIERS WEEKLY describes a big piece of nature faking recently pulled off in the heart of a made-up African jungle in a big Chicago moving picture studio. The piece is to be staged as a photograph of ex-President Roosevelt hunting lions in Africa, and will pretend to be an actual reproduction of one of his most exciting and dangerous experiences. The stage-setting was carefully arranged in a big jungle cage, and a real, live lion was bought from an animal dealer and turned loose therein. White men, made up to represent Mr. Roosevelt, his son Kermit, his English guide and other members of his party, and a big crowd of Chicago Negroes, stripped and made up like African native jungle-beaters and porters, entered the stage jungle. The photographers were stationed on a high platform protected with iron bars to insure safety. The lion did not like the surroundings and retired to the thickest part of the jungle and the native beaters angered him to the danger point; then "Mr. Roosevelt" same forward, and taking aim at the crouching brute, shot him in the lower jaw. The lion then charged, thoroughly maddened, and the Chicago "natives" forgot that they were acting in getting out of his way. With blood flowing from his wound the enraged lion leaped at the photographers eagle, when "Mr. Roosevelt" planted two more bullets in his careass and laid him low. Then the "natives," followed by the white men, assembled around his dead body, examined his wounds, danced in savage glee, shook hands in civilized congratulation, tied the careass to a long pole and bore it into "camp," where it was duly skinned, while "Mr. Roosevelt" wrote an account of the adventure. The American public will thus be given a chance to see what its popular idol and mighty hunter is doing in the wilds of darkest Africa. And, no doubt, the experience will leave as great an impression upon the Negro participants of Chicago as a genuine event will affect Mr. Roosevelts actual native attendants in Africa. Under the influence of successful example, the Negro has an abnormal regard for the power of faking. It provides a very acceptable means for the shifting of real responsibilities. He is more prone to copy the white man's tricks than to follow in his hard-wrought paths. If this stage business would go, outside of theaters and moving picture shows, we would soon have lion-killers and other mighty hunters of our own, but the best kind of faking must fail when it runs up against the real thing. Pushing Time Ahead Not Favored By G. WELLESLEY BRABBIT OME people want to push the clock back and literally drag us out of bed at an unearthly hour in the morning to go to work. After centuries of agitation and tumult the world over, the loss of millions of dollars in money, due to strikes and other forms of labor troubles in the effort to shorten our workday at the morning end, it is a pretty nervy proceeding on the part of these clock-shifters to come along and try to undo what is now practically a necessary and permanent feature of our working lives. S Look around the world and see who are the people that prosper most, have the best homes, and acquire not only the necessities, but nearly every luxury, of life with the least possible expenditure of physical exertion. Why, those who go to their work at nine or ten o'clock in the morning, of course—the merchants, the bankers, insurance men, lawyers, and the professions generally, their success being due more to a reasonable and humane arrangement of working hours than the mere possession of money. And now that most of the skilled trades and technical workers have acquired the right to utilize an extra morning hour to prepare for the day's task, after the manner of the favored people above mentioned, why should a baker's dozen of irresponsible enthusiasts be allowed to butt in and disarrange things and turn us down hill again?

Nobody but an inexperienced person would advocate this backing up of the clock for the alleged purpose of lengthening the day. As a matter of fact, no person of importance in the business world favors the plan. A. H. I think, therefore, that these clock-shifters are a puerile bunch of bores, and should be suppressed. I may add, too, that it is a safe prediction to state that if the trade unions give any countenance to this movement they will live long enough to regret it. Music Most Social of Arts By M. E. ROBINSON Music is "common and beautiful as light and air." There is no better exponent of this belief than M. Camille Bellaigue. In his opinion music is the most social and sociological of the arts. He remarks how it has always appealed the most strongly to apostles of the people who make social regeneration the object and hope of their lives. The people, he says, are by nature musicians. They are not architects, or painters, or sculptors. Music exists for the people, not the public, and the decadence of music means the triumph of materialism and the loss of social faith. In his refreshing pages we read of many a thinker and reformer, and many a man of action, who has found music both a rest and a call to work; of Luther attributing to it a moral power as great as, and even superior to, that of his Bible, and chasing away the devil, who was no musician, with voice or flute; of Mazzini in a season of deep depression rousing himself to renewed valor in the battle for freedom and humanity by writing a treatise on music, and the necessity of socializing music, not as a specialist primed with knowledge and learning, but as a patriot glowing with noble passion; of Lamennais finding some consolation in the platonic perfection of musical ideas for the trouble he suffered through his love for his fellow creatures and of the truth; of Frederick the Great, indefatigably learning the flute from early youth in secret, to old age, amidst the applause of privileged Quantz, building a palace of music, gathering round him the best composers and executants of the day, planning and founding an opera house, industriously composing marches and concertos, and sandwiching all these activities in between his campaigns and councils with unflagging and lifelong zeal. As women emerge from the position of artificial dependence which they now hold, the desire that beauty shall interpenetrate the lives of both men and women, and be no longer a mere ornament, will gain ground, and music will go through the same phases of development which have made all the other arts in their day nationally educative and universally significant. These flourished only as an idealization of the working life of a whole people.

ODENCRANTZ Here are some records of girl workers in New York City, showing the difficulty they have in holding jobs for any length of time. It's come and go, according to the employer's needs. One girl, now 24 years old, has the following record: Learner, perfumery (probably filling bottles), one year, $3 to $6 a week; left because work was slack; packer six months, $4.50 a week; left because work was slack; operator on a switchboard one year and three months, $5 a week; left "to advance," which she did by entering a tile factory to paste paper on tiles, at $8 a week. At the end of a year dull business sent her out to look for work again. During a working period of six years she worked scarcely more than four, says L. C. Odencrantz in the Survey. Rose, trained in millinery in a trade school, began her career at $4 a week in a position which lasted six weeks, when the season ended. She found another position in millinery, which lasted two weeks. She was idle a month. When the season began again in January she found another place at $5 a week, but two weeks later was sent for by her previous employer, with whom she stayed until May, when again the season was over. In August she returned to work, but in November secured office work, to fill in slack time. There is Mollie, who took off ruchings from a machine for a year and a half. She earned $3.50 a week, but left because nightwork made her ill. She became assistant forewoman, sewing curtains for one year at $4 a week, but left because there was no chance for advancement. She was operator on children's costs six months in one place and six months in another.

Many of the imported animals run wild and multiply rapidly at the expense of the native species, even the streams being filled with European and American trout which grow to great size. Introduced plants thrive quite as remarkably New forests are being created designably because the native trees, though yielding excellent timber, grow very slowly, and already many millions of larches, oaks, spruces, Douglas firs and eucalyptus have been planted, while seedlings from them are being continually added.

A little more than a year ago the awful murder of the Moratto building shocked the colored people of this city. Last Saturday William Hughes an expressman, shot and instantly killed Gussie Green at Twenty-first and Arapahoe streets, in the entrance of the Cottrell Pharmacy. Hughes then went home and shot himself. The shooting was a surprise to all. The reason for the shooting will never be known, as both parties died without revealing the cause. But is it not about time that our good people took cognizance of a condition apparently much winked at in this city. This loose moral condition disrupts and destroys homes. Good and honest men and women owe it to themselves and their families to drive out the class of this class of people. When you know people are living in an adulterous manner, say so and do not allow them to steal an air of respectability by filling places in our churches and living among good people.

McMAHAN'S PRESCRIPTION PHARMACY WATERS OF GUNNISON RIVER WILL FLOW SIX MILES UNDER MOUNTAINS. TO IRRIGATE RICH LANDS RECLAIMING ONE HUNDRED AND FIFTY THOUSAND ACRES IN UNCOMPAHGRE VALLEY. Denver.—A News special from Montrose Tuesday night says: The Gunison tunnel, six miles long—the longest single irrigation project ever undertaken by the federal government, a project which will furnish water to 150,000 acres of land richer than the valley of the Nile—was completed at 5:26 o'clock this afternoon, when the last round of shots fired in the east heading of the great bore permitted workmen in the two shafts to grasp each other by the hand. The project will also furnish power for electricity, and will light the towns of the Uncompahgre valley. The great bore will carry 1,200 second feet of water. It is the biggest tunnel in the world built for irrigation purposes. That last round of shots means that four and one-half years of labor are crowned with success and the dreams of the irrigationists are realized. The tunnel opens for cultivation some of the richest land in Colorado, and gives promise of a great population of prosperous ranchers and orchardists in the Uncompahgre valley. The Gunnison tunnel cost $3,500,000 and was begun November 24, 1904. The water that will make the Uncompahgre valley bloom will be taken from the Gunnison river through the mountain by means of the tunnel completed today to the valley on the other side. The work has been in charge of Engineer I. W. McConnell, who first had complete charge of the tunnel and was later made its supervising engineer. It was under his supervision that the great bulk of the work was done. Supt. L. A. McConnell was in charge of the shift of men in the east heading when the machine drills broke through the rock at 6 o'clock this morning, showing that the calculations of the engineers who planned the bore were exact. A round of shots was fired at 3 o'clock, but it was defective and failed to bring results. Another round was prepared and at 5:26 the shots carried down the debris and the Gunnison tunnel was complete. Measurements showed that the calculations of the engineers were made to a fraction, and the two bores met just as planned years ago. The ceremonies at the breaking through—the consummation of years of effort—were simple in the extreme. When the debris had been cleared away about twenty-five visitors from Montrose, including the leading business and professional men of the county, went through and were photographed. The news quickly spread to Montrose, where the fire bell was rung and the entire town turned out to celebrate the long-looked-for event. All the bells in the city that would work were started ringing. Firecrackers were exploded and sky-rockets were sent into the air. It was the celebration of the 4th of July over again. President Taft was to have been here for the opening of the tunnel, but owing to the fact that he had Congress on his hands, and that Mrs. Taft suffered a nervous breakdown, from which she has not yet recovered, he could not be present. In the hope that the President can be here to attend the formal celebration it has been set for September 28th. Denver-Golden State Road Denver.—To the surprise of its competitors the North Golden road has been selected as the route for the state road to Golden from Denver, provided for by the Seventeenth General Assembly by an appropriation of $5,000. The selection of this route was largely due to the offer made by Lakeside to build the half mile of the road which will run through that incorporated town, and the money put up by Lakeside and the residents. The residents raised $9,000 to build the road, the county commissioners of Jefferson county donated $5,000 and the state $5,000, making $19,000 in cash, a half mile of road through Lakeside constructed free of cost to the state, and hard rock for a large part of the route. The new ten-story building that is being erected for the Denver Gas and Electric Company at the corner of Fifteenth and Champa streets in Denver will cost $500,000. Postmaster Morehead of Boulder is advised from Washington that the contract for the new $70,000 postoffice building having been awarded to Beatty & McHenry of East Liverpool, O., the contractors have until August 1, 1910, to complete the building and thirty days from date of award to file their bonds. About 20,000 black bass were put in Boyd lake near Greeley a few days since, making 31,000 within a week, and about/11,000 were put in the Seven Lakes reservoirs. It is the intention to make these big reservoirs fishing resorts COLORADO NEWS The big swimming pool at Steamboat Springs has been finished by the contractors. Not a marriage license was issued in San Miguel county in June and not a wedding took place in Telluride. The flagstaff on the top of the Colorado Telephone Company's big building in Denver was struck by lightning July 4th, jarring the entire structure. No one was hurt. The new Majestic, the first modern theater building in Grand Junction was opened on the night of July 1st. It seats 700 and has a stage much larger than the old opera house.

At Denver July 3rd, shooting and killing Gussie Green, a negress, in the doorway of Cottrell's drug store at Twenty-first and Arapahoe streets, William G. Hughes, a negro expressman, led the police in a chase to his home at 3417 Humboldt street, barricaded himself in a stable and, as patrolmen and detectives were battering down the door, fired a bullet into his own head. George H. Putnam, a mining engineer of Denver, who graduated at the State School of Mines four years ago, was murdered at Pilares, Mex., July 7th, by Eleno Uriarte, a policeman, who called him out of a moving picture show and shot him twice through the body. Putnam was only twenty-five years old and the only son of Mrs. F. C. Putnam, a widow, who resides in Denver, where his body will be brought for interment. The records made by the Relling dredge boat of the French Gulch Gold Mining Company, operating in French gulch about a mile easterly from Breckenridge, in the way of clean-ups so far, have been broken by the last one made in June. The last eight days yielded roughly weighed on a platform scale 77 pounds avoirdupois. The gold is estimated as being worth $16.50 per ounce troy, which would make the eight days' clean-up worth $18.513. The Colorado Union of Christian Endeavor societies at its session in Denver July 4th unanimously adopted resolutions favoring the passage of laws providing for the initiative, referendum, recall and direct primary, the abolition of saloons, abolition of "straight tickets," and compulsory grand jury system.

A permanent organization of Colorado Republicans living in the city of Washington has been effected, with Joseph Williams of Denver, president; Robert R. Davidson, Denver, secretary, and Oney Carstarphen, Silver Cliff, treasurer, Membership in the organization is restricted to Republicans who are residents or former residents of Colorado either permanently or temporarily residing in Washington who have not forfeited their right to vote in Colorado. One of the objects of the association will be to prevent applicants for government positions from claiming citizenship in Colorado, if they are not bona fide citizens and residents of that state. The association will also aid Colorado citizens to obtain places in the government service and will endeavor to be of service and assistance to Colorado citizens visiting or residing in Washington.

A woman who has used Postum since it came upon the market knows from experience the wisdom of using Postum in place of coffee if one values health and a clear brain. She says: "At the time Postum was first put on the market I was suffering from nervous dyspepsia, and my physician had repeatedly told me not to use tea or coffee. Finally I decided to take his advice and try Postum. I got a package and had it carefully prepared, finding it delicious to the taste. So I continued its use and very soon its beneficial effects convinced me of its value, for I got well of my nervousness and dyspepsia. "My husband had been drinking coffee all his life until it had affected his nerves terribly, and I persuaded him to shift to Postum. It was easy to get him to make the change for the Postum is so delicious. It certainly worked wonders for him. "We soon learned that Postum does not exhilarate nor depress and does not stimulate, but steadily and honestly strengthens the nerves and the stomach. "To make a long story short, our entire family continued to use Postum with satisfying results, as shown in our fine condition of health and we have noticed a rather unexpected improvement in brain and nerve power." Increased brain and nerve power always follow the use of Postum in place of coffee, sometimes in a very marked manner. "There's a Reason."

FEWER DEPARTMENTS WORK SIMPLIFIED BY CUTTING OUT SOME SECTIONS AND CHANGING OTHERS. Denver.—The National Education Association Thursday elected the following officers: President—James Yadkin Joyner, superintendent of public instruction of North Carolina. Treasurer — Arthur Chamberlain, dean of Throop Institute, Pasadena, Calif. Member Board of Trustees—James M. Greenwood, superintendent of schools of Kansas City, Mo. Member of the Executive Committee—John Herbert Phillips, state superintendent of instruction for Alabama. The Board of Directors, by a vote merely expressing its opinion, and leaving final decision to the executive committee, recommended that the next convention go to San Francisco. The vote stood: San Francisco, 21; Boston, 4; Milwaukee 10. By action of the Board of Directors the whole departmental organization was torn to pieces, with ten departments instead of twenty-three former active departments. The change in the association was effected by consolidation of some departments and the total elimination of others. The departments unprovided for in the new scheme are: Physical education, the Library department and the Indian department. The latter threatened to withdraw and the association leaders forestalled the withdrawal. In the election of vice presidents ten of whom are elected and one holding office ex-officio, Colorado was honored by the selection of Katherine Cook, state superintendent of public instruction. Aside from the election of officers, which met in the morning, and the conforming action of the active members at noon, the big event of the day was the action of the Board of Directors in reorganizing the department system. As a result of the eliminating of three departments entirely, three sets of officers who had already been elected are without positions, and in half a dozen cases departments have been consolidated or reorganized entirely with the result that it is impossible to determine which of the various sets of officers already elected or to be elected at the close of department meetings today are to have control. This tangle has been referred to the executive committee for solution. Alfred Bayliss of Illinois, chairman of the committee of reorganization, which has been working for several years, reported at 5 o'clock yesterday to the new board of directors. The report was signed by Bayless, Nicholas Murray Butler and Ben Blewitt, and was also concurred in by William A. Maxwell of New York and W. H. Chancelor of Virginia, who were on the committee but not at the last session. In substance the report, which was adopted, is as follows: "The present departments of the N. E. A.; "National council of education; department of superintendents, including the old department of school administration; department of professional preparation of teachers, which includes the old departments of child study and normal schools; department of elementary education, including the old department of kindergarten education; the department of secondary education, including the old departments of business education and science instruction; the department of higher education; the department of industrial education, to include manual training, rural and agricultural education, technical instruction and domestic science; the department of music education, and the department of school patrons, which is to be the old department of women's organizations The report was fought hard in the board of directors, Elmer Ellsworth Brown, Charles H. Keyes and L. D. Harvey being among its opponents. Now that the maze of departments has been cut down, some new departments are expected to be added, including a department of engineering. For this purpose the old committee was continued with the addition of Lorenzo D. Harvey, J. H. Green and Pres. J. Y. Joyner. Senate Passes Tariff Bill. Washington.—The *teiff bill* passed the Senate just after 11 o'clock Thursday night by a vote of 45 to 34. As it passes the Senate the bill contains almost 400 paragraphs. The Senate made 480 amendments to the House provisions, many of which were added today. Consequently the enrolling clerks are finding the preparation of the bill for the House an arduous task. They have been following as closely upon the heels of the Senate as was possible, and have the work well in hand. Save the Babies. INFANT MORTALITY is something frightful. We can hardly realize that of all the children born in civilized countries, twentytwo per cent., or nearly one-quarter, die before they reach one year; thirtyseven per cent., or more than one-third, before they are five, and one-half before they are fifteen! We do not hesitate to say that a timely use of Castoria would save a majority of these precious lives. Neither do we hesitate to say that many of these infantile deaths are occasioned by the use of narcotic preparations. Drops, tinctures and soothing syrups sold for children's complaints contain more or less opium, or morphine. They are, in considerable quantities, deadly poisons. In any quantity they stupefy, retard circulation and lead to congestions, sickness, death. Castoria operates exactly the reverse, but you must see that it bears the signature of Chas. H. Fletcher. Castoria causes the blood to circulate properly, opens the pores of the skin and allays fever. 900 DROPS CASTORIA ALCOHOL 3 PER CENT.

Down, of Philadelphia, Pa., says: "I have prescribed your Castoria in my practice for many years with great satisfaction to myself and benefit to my patients." Dr. Edward Parrish, of Brooklyn, N. Y., says: "I have used your Castoria in my own household with good results, and have advised several patients to use it for its mild laxative effect and freedom from harm." Dr. J. B. Elliott, of New York City, says: "Having during the past six years prescribed your Castoria for infantile stomach disorders, I most heartily commend its use. The formula contains nothing deleterious to the most delicate of children." Dr. C. G. Sprague, of Omaha, Neb., says: "Your Castoria is an ideal medicine for children, and I frequently prescribe it. While I do not advocate the indiscriminate use of proprietary medicines, yet Castoria is an exception for conditions which arise in the care of children." Dr. J. A. Parker, of Kansas City, Mo., says: "Your Castoria holds the esteem of the medical profession in a manner held by no other proprietary preparation. It is a sure and reliable medicine for infants and children. In fact, it is the universal household remedy for infantile ailments." Dr. H. F. Merrill, of Augusta, Me., says: "Castoria is one of the very finest and most remarkable remedies for infants and children. In my opinion your Castoria has saved thousands from an early grave. I can furnish hundreds of testimonials from this locality as to its efficiency and merits." Dr. Norman M. Geer, of Cleveland, Ohio, says: "During the last twelve years I have frequently recommended your Castoria as one of the best preparations of the kind, being safe in the hands of parents and very effective in relieving children's disorders, while the ease with which such a pleasant preparation can be administered is a great advantage."

THE Colorado Statesman 1824 Curtis Street Room 25 --- EVENING GOWNS THE FASHION OF THE TWENTIETH CENTURY These sketches show two of the best models for evening gowns for the summer. The one on the right is after a Paris design. The one on the left is of meteor crepe in apricot color. The trimming is made of bands of dull gold on white net. MANY USES OF TISSUE PAPER Especially Is It Valuable When Packing a Trunk—How It May Be Applied. We cannot overestimate the value of tissue paper if we are of the traveling public. While it is delightfully careful and neat to own a vast array of shoe bags, one to the pair, and bags and slipcovers galore for parasols, hair brushes and each thing we want to separate from every other, the fact remains that they take up a far too generous proportion of our trunk space. Tissue paper, which is a very good substitute, takes up none of the valuable room and is in no way open to criticism. It is clean, white and dainty; quantities of it are available at any time, and there is no better material for filling sleeves and tucked or puffed gowns to keep them from crushing. Tissue paper should be crumpled and poked into ribbon or lace hat bows and among hat flowers, and should surround the hat itself to keep it from flattening against the sides of the box or trunk lid. Each pair of dainty gloves and all neckwear should be separately wrapped. Layers of it to separate the varied contents of the trunk will make the terrible business of unpacking less difficult. Travelers who have packed with tissue paper have been quite won over to its use. IN SAILOR STYLE. 1 This dress, made in the ever-favorite sailor style, would look well in cream serge. The skirt is entirely plaited, and is stitched at the foot. The novelty lies in the blouse, which is cut in two pieces, and arranged in a wrapped seam. A box-plait is made down the center of front, which fastens up to the neck; the pocket sewn at the left side will be found most useful. White silk embroidered collars and cuffs edged with frills are worn and give a pretty effect. Hat of coarse straw, trimmed with a puffed net crown and roses. Materials required: 4 yards serge 46 inches wide. Ribbon Hair Band A rather wide band of ribbon brought up round the hair and tied in a broad girlish bow at one side is a French head finish much favored. Sleeveless Gauze Coats. Sleeveless coats of gauze or net give a dressy touch to a costume. They are designed primarily for wear indoors. New Ruch Designed to Be Worn with Soft Summer Silk Is Easily Made. A rather new little ruch to be worn with soft summer silk or other one-piece frocks is made of liberty satin, or chiffon, with long ends that look almost like a sash. The material is fastened around a boned collar lining, fastened at the back, and is laid either in flat plaits or is tucked in clusters of thread tucks. To conceal the opening which comes a little to the left rather than in the middle of the back, is a small rosette of the material, from which hang two long ends that come well below the waist. Sometimes these ends are finished in a long pendant ornament of jet or silk the color of the stock. Again they have silk fringe, and occasionally they are hemstitched across the end in several rows. With a gray silk frock a charming stock of this order could be made of tucked net a tone darker than the dress. Each tuck could be run with a line of silver thread. The fluffy rosette could have a flat button in the center darned with the silver thread, and the ends can be accordion-plaited with a deep silver tinsel fringe. If preferred, tiny silver bugles can be sewed to the bottom of the streamers. Any clever-fingered girl can make herself one of these fashionable new stocks—and use her wits to give old touches and charming color effects. Upside Down Women, indeed, are clever, but the one who saw a hat-brim decoration in her unbecoming lace veil was more than ordinarily farseeing. Now, the ornate and bordered veil has vied with the real lace fichu a hundred times for a place on the summer hat, but it has not done duty as a face veil and a hat trimming until this unusually resourceful woman turned the straight edge down and then spread the bordered part over the brim of her large leghorn hat. This brought delicately scattered sprays and dots over her face in a more becoming scantiness and gave place on the hat for the full display of the handsome pattern on the border. Panieres and Crinoline Silks, satins and brocades are at once suggested by the newest models, and not the soft, clinging fabrics so wonderfully adapted to the graceful, close fitting designs. Materials that can stand alone, the old-time standard of excellence, will once again be in demand, and unless there is a more concerted plan of action among all women where taste in dress stands for authority, there is really grave danger of paniers and even crinoline being seriously considered. This has been threatened time and again, but has always at the last moment failed to materialize; so it is to be hoped this time again the fashion will be killed before it becomes established. Princess Hip Yoke The cuirass or princess hip yoke effect which has been conspicuous in imported gowns since the first openings of the season is being brought out in many unexpected ways. One of the newest is the entire princess gown with the lower part of the bodice and the hip portion of the skirt covered with embroidery, which makes them one in line and treatment. In this way it is possible to turn a two-piece gown into a princess, the simple process of covering the waist seam with embroidery or braid being all that is needed. Some of the trimmings of this kind are put on in jacket or coat shape. "What are you paying for poetry to-day?" the long-haired man inquired. The editor glanced at the closely rolled manuscript in the visitor's hands. "I'll have to consult the janitor," he said. "We are not buying heavily at present. Just a little now and then to accommodate our friends. But we never buy it in less than ten-pound lots." Whereupon he went back to his desk and the caller faded away.—Cleveland Plain Dealer. "How do you do!" exclaimed the letter carrier as he greeted the auctioneer. "I do as I am bid," answered the auctioneer, with a flendish grin. "Much the same here," rejoined the l.c. "I do as I am directed." Truisms. Work is medicine. A truism! Truisms, whether they lie in the depths of thought, or on the surface, are at any rate the pearl of experience. George Meredith.
