LABOR SHALL BE FREE RACE COUNTRY PARTY RESOURCES OF COLORADO Action Of The Denver Chamber of Commerce to Secure Information concerning the Resources of Colorado Committees Organized to visit Schools. Who will Educate our people how to direct their Energies in order to receive greatest benefits? VOL. XVI. RESOURCE OF COL Action Of The Denver Chamber formation concerning the Committees Organized will Educate our people Energies in order to re Doubless very few of our people took notice of a very recent action of The Denver Chamber of Commerce. In the intensity of its desire to get down among the people, and that they should have first hand information of the valuable resources of Colorado, this body of wide-awake and hustling business men, organized a special committee to visit the schools and carefully explain to the pupils the geography of the state and the immense wealth awaiting the ambitious hustler. In this work the club has the hearty support and co-operation of Superintendent Chadsey. The few colored children in the favored grades will reap the benefit of this great work. The Colorado Statesman calls attention to this movement because we believe that thousands of our people are starving today because they are ignorant of what to do. They are ready and willing to go out into the world and make a place, but their dream is the far-famed mines of Goleonda, where there are acres of diamonds at their feet, if they only knew. If they only knew that the labor of the agriculturist was more remunerative than that of any class, and carried with it a dignity and respectability unequaled by any class, the Negro would lay aside the foolish notion of dress and the siren song of fleeting pleasures and pile up for himself a wealth beside which that of the master class of other days would be as nothing. If they only knew where to find cheap land with water, they would go and the citizens of the state would gain in the tremendous strength of a great industrial class and the race would be improved by the development of better and higher types of man. Watching the other fellow is a great object lesson in methods of race building. He is forever teaching his people to know where the wealth lies. Our people are waiting patiently for an industrial Moses. Dr. Washington, the great apostle and advocate of skilled labor, cannot reach every locality. Who will teach our people? --- WHO WILL? It is indeed a grave and a very serious question to properly educate the masses of our people into a perfect understanding of where to direct their energies in order to receive the greatest and most lasting benefits. Among the whites this duty very naturally and logically falls to the various commercial bodies, who see very readily greater profit to their various lines of business in the financial uplift of the less fortunate. Among our people the commercial men are either so deeply interested in their own development or they are lacking in that broad, liberal business sense that sees in a neighbor's success added profit for them. That the Negro business men of Colorado should awake to the vast importance of this work cannot be gainsaid. To have in this state thousands of prosperous and industrious farmers, means new and paying clientel for the lawyer, the doctor, and not many years hence, the dream of a Negro bank would be a realization. The Negro Business League of Colorado owes this much to the people. They should labor to help make the state for those who will live tomorrow. With the thousands of acres coming under cultivation each year, and the rush of thousands of settlers from the East and North, as well as Europe, but a few years and what is now golden opportunity will be gone. TONOPAH NOTES. Among the festivities of last week was a social hop, given by the Tonopah Musical Club at El Paso hall, where only the "400" set was admitted. It was a series of their regular semi-monthly dance and the event proved to be one of much merriment. The officers of the club are J. W. Johnson, president; Frank Reed, vice-president; Bud Mills, secretary; John Shatton, treasurer; and they together with the other members spared no pains in making it pleasant for everybody. A comet party was out a few nights ago and view Halley's comet from one of the high mountain peaks. It was along towards "getting up time" before the party dispersed for their homes. Bud Mills is one of the popular business men of Tonopah. He is a congenial, good fellow and wields a big influence. Among those who anticipate seeing the big fight at Frisco, are Bud Mills, F. E. Grey, J. W. Johnson and "Crying Kid." ALBUQUERQUE NEWS. Rev. W. H. Prince and wife passed through the city last week en route to Raton, N. M., where they attended the District A. M. E. Church conference. Francis Collsworth and her sister, Katie, left Tuesday evening for Los Angeles, Calif., for the benefit of the former's health, under advice from their family physician. A mass meeting of the colored citizens was called last week by Rev. G. H. Byas at the Mt. Olive church for the purpose of making preparation for an Emancipation celebration, to be held on the 4th of August. We trust the colored folk will get busy and make the effort a record-breaker. The Mt. Olive Literary Society is progressing nicely. Good subjects and fine debaters are on the program every Tuesday night. Everybody is invited to attend. Refreshments are served after the rendition of the program. Mrs. T. Watson and her daughter, Mrs. A. Anderson and family, have arrived from Richmond, Cal. They are old residents of the city and will remain indefinitely. Mr. and Mrs. Theo. Brinson and family will leave in a few days for an extended trip to the former's old home in Exinia, Ohio. Mr. Brinson is a clerk in our local postoffice and takes this trip during his annual vacation. The citizens of New Mexico mourn the Territorial University, which was totally destroyed by fire last week. The Duke City K. of P. lodge gave a swell concert and ball last week. The boys are receiving many congratulations for their systematic arrangement in pulling off this event. W. T. Thornton, the well known cleaner, is arranging to close out his successful business and will leave shortly for San Diego, Cal., where he will reside permanently. Poor health is the cause for the change. A grand reception and banquet was given by the members of the A. M. E. church last Monday evening, in honor of Mrs. Brinson, the even- ing before she departed for her Eastern trip. The swell social set were out in full dress. The ladies were handsomely gowned for the occasion. Mrs. Brinson has for several years been the church organist, and the honor was justly due her. The church was beautifully decorated for the occasion. The crowd was served with a fine supper by Jeff Click. Nice toasts were made by Rev. Jones, Professor Lott and others. Mrs. Brinson was presented with a handsome summer cloak as a present from the trustee board for her efficient services as organist of the church. COLORED RAILWAY EM- PLOYES MAY LOSE THOUSANDS Should Jack Johnson, the present champion heavyweight, lose his title to James J. Jefferies July 4th next when they meet in their 45 round battle for the world's championship, it will mean a loss of at least $250,000 to $300,000 to the colored railway employees of the United States. This is a conservative estimate and the chances are that the loss to them in case Johnson loses will be still greater. There are 8,500 colored porters employed by the Pullman Company, and at a low estimate there are over 13,000 colored men employed on the parlor cars, dining cars and as cooks on the various railroads, making fully 20,000 in all. It is a pretty safe prediction that practically every one of them will have a bet down on the big fight, for colored porters and waiters are "natural born gamblers," and it will be a poor kind of porter or waiter who will not back the colored champion. Figuring on the basis that every one of these men bets from $10 to $15, it brings the total up to about $300,000 which is very conservative for many of them will bet up into the hundreds, and the chances are that the total amount bet by the porters and waiters will be nearer half a million than $300,000. Aside from what these colored men will wager might be added what the colored population in general will bet (and there are many colored sports who will bet into the thousands), and it is safe to estimate that close to $500,000 will be wagered this way, making in all close to $1,000,000.—Seattle Republican. a company of Negro men in Memphis has been recently organized for the purpose of establishing a home for aged ex-slaves. The chief promoter of the enterprises is Lymus Wallace, himself an ex-slave. RACE NEWS GATHERED FROM VARIOUS SOURCES Oklahoma has more Negro towns than any state in the Union, the largest being Boley with 3,000 population; Taft, with a population of about 900; Tullahassee with about 500; Red Bird with 350; Clearview, Rentiesville, Grayson with about 2,500, Gatesville and Wybark. The Durham Textile Mills, the only hosiery mill in North Carolina run and operated by Negroes, has met with such success that it is going to double its plant and make Durham the center of Negro hosiery mills in the country. Durham seems to be sort of knocking the socks off the rest of the country, doesn't it? Florence, S. C., May 24.—Before a large crowd, attracted by the novelty of the case, Logan Dowdy, a white man, was a few days ago sentenced to ten days in jail and to pay a fine of $25 for stealing chickens from the hen roost of a Negro, Will Boyd. A board had been pulled off the back of Boyd's well-locked chicken house and the following day the missing chickens were found in a coop under Dowdy's house. One of them he had sold to a neighbor Richmond, Ind., May 24.—John Wright Johnson, personal friend and co-worker with Harriet Beecher Stowe in the campaign against slavery, died at his home in Fountain City last week. Death was due to the infirmities of age. Johnson, who was nine one years old, is accredited with having assisted Eliza Harris of "Uncle Tom's Cabin" fame to escape by means of the "Underground Railroad" and to have given Mrs. Stowe the facts for her story. Brookhaven, Miss., May 20.—At a meeting of the Board of Aldermen this afternoon a reward of $500 was offered for the arrest and conviction of any person or persons guilty of the burning of W. N. Bryant's property. Bryant is a Negro and published a newspaper here. Resentment against matter he printed led several citizens to drive him out of the place and apply the torch to his property. Savannah, Ga. May 23.—Alfred M. Marshall, a cotton merchant, charged with murder, was placed on trial here today. While riding NO.38 in his automobile on April 1 Marshall ran down three Negroes, and two of them, Lee and Maria Washington, died as the result of their injuries. the defense presented a demurrer alleging that Marshall was not committing an unlawful act when he ran down the Negroes and that the indictment therefore alleger no crime. Camden, N. J., April 25.—Immediately after Saturday's session of the New Jersey Conference of the New Jersey Methodist Episcopal church began the Rev. J. H. Morgan of Bordentown arose and announced that he had withdrawn his charge of embezzlement against Bishop Wesley J. Gaines of Atlanta. He added that he was exceedingly sorry for what he had done and asked the bishop to forgive him. The bishop declared his willingness to forgive, and the incident was closed after a general handshake all around. The embezzlement charge which resulted in a warrant being issued for the bishop on Thursday caused a sensation in the A. M. E. church circles. A jury in Judge Delehanty's Court last week awarded Joseph I. Charles, colored, a verdict of $2,000 against Policeman Daniel Nihill, the plaintiff charging in his petition that the police clubbed him. Charles tesified that when Nihill was watching a house in West 27th street in which he lived the policeman pounded him with his club because he insisted on getting in. Inspector McCusky was a witness for the policeman, and said had directed Nihill to watch the house and warn persons who tried to enter that it was disorderly. The policemen testified that he had orders not to let any one enter, and he was merely obeying orders in keeping the Negro out. The Court declared that the jury's verdict was proper, and that policeman must be taught that they have got to obey the law.—New York Age. Especially Woman Nature. Especially Woman Nature.

He called attention to the fact that England's object in tak- ing hold in Egypt was the establish- ment of order. “Either you have or you have not the right to remain in Egypt and establish and keep order. If you have not the right and have not the desire to keep order, then, by all means, get out.

LIBERAL COURTESY EXTENDED TO ALL | a aan sasha rsabciaiddrndnedbddvdoedbooebhotbOOSOre WASHINGTON. President Taft spent Memorial Day in New York City. The United States Supreme Court Tuesday denied the application of Oberlin M. Carter, former captain of the United States army, for a rehear- ing in the suit in which $400,000 was taken from him and turned over to the government as a result of the Sa- vannah, Ga, harbor improvement scandal. ‘The authority of the interstate com- merce commission in issuing the order directing a reduction of the through freight rates from Chicago and from St. Louis to Denver, and the validity of that order was Tuesday upheld by the Supreme Court of the United States, three of the seven judges dis- senting. Statehood for Arizona and New Mexico in the senate is rapidly com- ing down to the local point of taking the house bill, already passed, or noth- ing. As usual, the Republicans are d} vided. President Taft is represented as ready to sign any reasonable bill which gives the two southwestern ter- ritories a chance to come under the flag as states. Alarmed over the decision of the supreme court of the United States in the Jandt case, general attorneys from a score of big railroads probably will ask the court to reconsider its conclusion. In the Jandt case, which was decided April 1, the court held that certain freight cars engaged in interstate commerce were liable to attachment proceedings in states oth- er than that in which the common carrier was incorporated. Some of the supporters of the measure that passed the Senate pro viding for an issue of certificates of indebtedness to the amount of $30,000, 000 for the completion of reclamation projects, are preparing to place this measure as a “rider” upon the admin. istration land withdrawal bill. This course is designed to compel the House committee on ways and means to take action upon the Senate meas: ure, but it is said to have the support of President Taft. Representative Pray of Montana se- cured the adoption of an amendment to the sundry civil bill in the house ‘Tuesday adding $160,000 to the appro- priation for creating a bureau of mines, so that coal mine rescue sta. tions may be established at various places in the country contiguous to large mining operations.

For insta- nality and business, politics and religion. The people are not one-half as greatly interested in water as they are in whiskey. The vote in the recent municipal election proved this decisively. The majority in favor of keeping the city wet with whiskey was large; the majority by which the successful water amendment was adopted was comparatively small. There was not so much personal anxiety shown over the outcome of the water question as there was over the outcome of the whiskey question. Those for and those against the wet proposition waged equally aggressive campaigns, full of burning enthusiasm and mutual disgust. Those for and against the several water amendments to the city charter, with certain exceptions, exhibited an apathy which amounted almost to indifference. That those who voted in favor of the whiskey proposition were not the same voters as those who favored any particular water proposition is shown by the discrepancy in the respective majorities. It was in all respects a mixed vote. In other words, some took whiskey and water, while many took whiskey straight. Nobody took plain water, according to the undisputed official returns, for the water voters were all interested in the whiskey proposition, while many of the whiskey voters took no stock in water. The result shows why the liquor interests cut such a big figure in politics, and especially in municipal politics. They work unceasingly and poll their entire strength. What is known as the moral element, which is composed generally of those opposed to liquor privileges, is apt to overlook matters of general interest affected by politics, and to exhibit aggressiveness only on strictly moral issues. They lose oftener than they win. The highly respectable and church-going elements are either too fastidious or too timid to mix matters on election day. Perhaps they are too indifferent or too neglectful; and then they wonder why they are beaten on so-called moral issues when they arise. They should learn how to mix things. For instance, whiskey and water, morality and business, politics and religion. THE BEAST AND JUNGLE ARGUMENT.

But we are neither cynical nor group not discouraged. Ours is yet an inbaubles we play with. We have you can grapple confidently with all the Friendship. MARADO STATESMAN has very little patience with emination on the part of colored men to knock without limit, just because we all do not and are, or view with the same degree of importance which individuals set their hearts.

Colored people do not promptly and completely as other people we have not had the reliable experience or capacity that centuries of independent effort other people. We must expect to face concern them with toleration and patience, however of their reform. Appointment of business instinct among us is need, depends far more upon enticement and goes than upon public condemnation. Susceptibilities of public co-operation, either in a way not so disgust us that we need give up in our racial relations or ambitions by turning, would rather see our race enjoy. Men of superior intelligence and genius, so institute and carry on progressive movements and to endure sacrifices. Emotion imposed upon them by reason of their genius, is one of ceaseless effort, infinity with in the final triumph of their ideas. Race efforts fail. We have seen a great man and strenuously agitated plans come to naught, would have been wholly to the people's cry, by a hard-earned dollar in our fight for the selfish and legitimate efforts go unappreciated who would have benefitted by their aid, either cynical nor grouchy over the experience. Ours is yet an infant race, in spite of day with. We have years of nursing before confidently with all the big problems of life. THE COLORADO STATESMAN has very little patience with the all-too-prevalent inclination on the part of colored men to knock and condemn one another without limit, just because we all do not and cannot see and do things alike, or view with the same degree of importance the special hobbies on which individuals set their hearts. We do not aim to boost men promiscuously, without the requirement of a reasonable show of merit, but we do not believe in condemning men generally, and particularly men of some standing and merit, who are striving to the best of their ability to meet the conditions imposed upon them by their callings, just because they do not do as much as we would like to see done. No good is accomplished by a wholesale, imitative, beast-in-the-jungle campaign against conditions which are not wantonly bad, but which are due to faults arising out of natural conditions. We are in hearty sympathy with all legitimate race enterprises and give them sincere and emphatic endorsement in our columns, but we have no cranky scolding to do if the people fail to appreciate opportunities presented or to follow our advice in their support. Colored people do not accomplish things just as promptly and completely as other people accomplish them because we have not had the reliable experience or do not possess the inherent capacity that centuries of independent effort have developed in those other people. We must expect to face conditions as they are and treat them with toleration and patience, however we may regret the tardiness of their reform. The development of business instinct among us is necessarily a slow process, which depends far more upon enticement and good-natured encouragement than upon public condemnation. The impossibilities of public co-operation, either in a business or social way, need not so disgust us that we need give up individual effort nor sacrifice our racial relations or ambitions by turning over to others that which we would rather see our race enjoy. Colored men of superior intelligence and genius, who are fired with desires to institute and carry on progressive movements for the improvement of race conditions, ought to be prepared to meet failures and disappointments and to endure sacrifices. The obligation imposed upon them by reason of their superior intelligence and genius, is one of ceaseless effort, infinite patience and unfaltering faith in the final triumph of their ideas. We have seen a great many race efforts fail. We have seen a great many of our own well intended and strenuously agitated plans come to naught, when their realization would have been wholly to the people's credit. We have sacrificed many a hard-earned dollar in our fight for the race and have seen many unselfish and legitimate efforts go unappreciated and often opposed by those who would have benefitted by their accomplishment. But we are neither cynical nor grouchy over the experience, and we are not discouraged. Ours is yet an infant race, in spite of the size of the baubles we play with. We have years of nursing before us before we can grapple confidently with all the big problems of life. Friendship.

Drowned in Two Inches of Water. An extraordinary fatality was described at an inquest held at Lewisham, London, recently, on the body of Ernest William Donoghue, an infant, eight months old. The mother of the child said that she left him sitting in a chair in front of a bread pan which was used as a bath, and in which there were two inches of water. When she returned she found the child head downward in the pan with the chair on top of him, and he was evidently dead. Medical evidence showed that death was due to drowning. The doctor said that he had found a crust of bread in the pan, and evidently the child had leaned forward in an attempt to reach it, and in so doing had overbalanced. LINEN NEEDS CARE COMPARATIVELY EASY THING TO SPOIL FINE FABRICS. Simple Precautions That Will Add Life to the Table Drapery and at the Same Time Greatly Improve Its Appearance. The housewife who leaves to an overworked maid of all work the care of her linen need not wonder if her best linen is ruined soon. The napkins should always be folded so the embroidered initial will show on the outer flap, but this still can be done and the napkin folded in different ways each time it is laundered. Starch is an abomination in good table linen; however, if one has a well worn cloth which seems to have no "body," and thus becomes solled quickly, it is wise to add about a quart of thin, hot "made starch" to half a tub of bluing water and wring the linen out of this; sufficient "body" will be given it to make it wear much longer before another washing is necessary. When about to iron table linen prepare some hot borax water, and with a clean whisk broom sprinkle every inch of the linen thoroughly, roll up tightly in a clean towel, and let it lie for half an hour or so, and then iron. A small but heavy brush having stiff, fine bristles and a short, thick handle, should be used instead of a coarse comb for fringed linen and dolls. When there is no room to put the cloth away with a single fold in the middle, it may be folded first in the middle and then the selvedge sides may be turned back, thus folding the cloth into quarters lengthwise, having each fold appear on the right side; there must be no cross folds, however, nor are these necessary if a cloth is well ironed and aired, since it may be laid lightly away in the drawer and carefully smoothed out by hand when it is laid on the table. Several cloths may be stored perfectly in small space by hanging a wooden curtain pole against the wall of the linen closet, throwing the cloths over this pole, one over the other. It is unwise to put away a piece of stained linen until the general wash day, which is always a difficult day in any household, and then try to remove it. The average servant, when anything is spilled on a tablecloth, usually removes it from the table and thrusts it into a bag or hamper, still damp, along with the rest of the soiled clothes of a household. Long before wash day arrives whole families of little creatures are at work and finally, when the linen is removed from the basket to be laundered, there is a greenish spot which cannot be removed only by the use of a strong bleaching agent which surely injures the fabric, although the injury may not be apparent at once. This is the case even if clean water has been spilled on the cloth; in the case of tea or coffee, wine, or fruit juice, if put into the hamper without first removing the stain and drying the cloth, not only is mildew apt to appear but the stain becomes set in the fabric so that it is well nigh impossible ever to remove all trace of it without using an alkali so strong that the fabric is weakened perceptibly. Instead of first treating the mildew, after it has been allowed to form, the average servant puts the cloth to soak in strong soapy water—perhaps hot water—along with the rest of the solled linen, and the last state of this tablecloth when it finally emerges from the laundry is worse than the first. Beeswax In Cracks Ugly cracks or splits in furniture can easily be filled in with beeswax, so that the marks will hardly show Furniture dealers cover up many blemishes in this way. Slightly soften the beeswax until it becomes like putty; then press it firmly into the cracks, and smooth the surface over with a thin knife. Sandpaper the surrounding wood and work some of the dust into the beeswax. This gives a finish to the wood, and when it is varnished the cracks will have disappeared. Putty is sometimes used in the same way, but it soon dries and falls out, while beeswax will remain in practically forever. Florence Salad. Make a stuffing of Dutch cheese, half of a chopped pimento, half a minced onion, a dash of paprika, salt and pepper. Cut off the tops of some green peppers, wash and clean them inside, removing all the seeds; let them lie in cold water until firm, and fill them with the stuffing. Lay the peppers on ice until ready to serve, that is, until the cheese has become perfectly firm; then cut them in slices a quarter of an inch thick, using a very sharp knife, and taking care not to disturb the cheese. Serve on crisp lettuce leaves with mayonnaise. This is an unusually pretty and novel salad if made carefully. Raspberry Vinegar Put a pound of raspberries in a china bowl and pour over them a quarter of the best white wine vinegar. Next day strain the liquid on a pound of fresh raspberries. The following day do the same, but do not squeeze the fruit, only drain liquor as dry as you can from it. Almond and Celery Salad. One pint of celery cut fine, one small cupful of almonds blanched and halved. Cover with mayonnaise dress ing.

Representative Harry Maynard of Virginia tells the story of how a religious old negro in his district put a stop to the exercise of Christian charity in the congregation of which he was a member. It seems that it was a practise in the church to excommunicate for one year any member who had been guilty of a "blood fight"—that is, any man who had attacked another with a pistol or a razor. At the end of the year, if the offender wished reinstatement, he could go to the "mourners' bench," rise and declare his repentance, and be forgiven by the congregation. This went on for many years. At last a young darky who had been in a particularly objectionable broil appeared for reinstatement. The pastor made an eloquent appeal to the congregation and everybody began to shout and say "Amen." It was at this point that the old negro arose and said hotly: "Look hyah, pahson; eber since I been a membuh of dis congergashun, dar ain' been nothin' but fightin' an' fugivgin'—an' I been doing all de fugivgin'. I'se tired of it!" That broke up the meeting.—Popular Magazine. A letter should bear the stamp of approval—also a two-cent stamp if it is to go by mail. HARD ON CHILDREN. When Teacher Has Coffee Habit. "Best is best, and best will ever live." When a person feels this way about Postum they are glad to give testimony for the benefit of others. A school teacher down in Miss says: "I had been a coffee drinker since my childhood, and the last few years it had injured me seriously. "One cup of coffee taken at break fast would cause me to become so nervous that I could scarcely go through with the day's duties, and this nervousness was often accompanied by deep depression of spirits and heart palpitation. "I am a teacher by profession, and when under the influence of coffee had to struggle against crossness when in the school room. "When talking this over with my physician, he suggested that I try Postum, so I purchased a package and made it carefully according to directions; found it excellent of flavor, and nourishing. "In a short time I noticed very gratifying effects. My nervousness disappeared, I was not irritated by my pupils, life seemed full of sunshine, and my heart troubled me no longer. "I attribute my change in health and spirits to Postum alone." Read the little book, "The Road to Wellville," in pkgs, "There's a Reason." Ever read the above letter! A new one appears from time to time. They smile, true, and full of human interest. NATIONAL CAPITAL AFFAIRS Girl Asks Senators for Day's Income Champ Clark's Boyhood Dream Is True Champ Clark's Boyhood Dream Is True Congressman Spits; Misses a Thriller Shelled Eggs Before Supreme Court WASHINGTON.—The millionaires of the senate have been pleadingly requested by a young country girl of Virginia to donate their aggregated income for 24 hours in order that she may be enabled to acquire such an education as will qualify her for the profession of teaching school. She feels that this would not in the least impoverish them, while it would enrich her beyond hope's desire. The ambitious girl who has made this unusual appeal resides at Volney, Va. She rescribes herself as being fifteen years old and earnestly seeking to better her condition and provide some means by which she can become self-supporting. Her communication is entirely frank and fearless and the writer is apparently convinced that a favorable reply will come along at no distant date. The little Virginia lass simply addressed her letter: "The Senate Messrs.," and then branches right out with her request, merely prefacing it with the announcement that she understands the senate is chiefly composed of millionaires, who would never miss the trifling assistance she requires. And then comes the direct I'D RUTHER BE A LAWYER IT'S EASIER WHEN Champ Clark was making the speech which "riled" Cannon, so that the speaker retorted with more or less ferocity, Clark gave his hearers a glimpse of his own boyhood. "When I was a lad, hoeing corn in Kentucky, I made up my mind to be a lawyer and to come to this congress," he said. "I had never even seen a courthouse. I had no idea what congress was like. But I made good on both propositions. I like the place. If the salary were cut to $5,000 a year I would still want to be here. If it were cut to $3,000 a year I would still want to be here. If it were cut to nothing I would still want to be here, provided I had a sufficient bank account." And it is said that the bank account of the man who, as a boy, hoed Kentucky corn, is just about big enough to enable him to indulge in the luxury of sitting in an unsalaried congress. According to one of the Washington JUST MY LUCK-1 NEVER SEE NOTHIN' REPRESENTATIVE EZEKIEL SAMUEL CANDLER of Mississippi is one of the most retiring and unobtrusive members of the lower house of the national legislature. Representative Candler is more generally known as "Tombigbee" Candler because once more than a year ago, he begged the house not to forget that majestic stream, the Tombigbee river of Mississippi in its river and harbor appropriation bill. Mr. Candler, according to the congressional directory, was for nine years moderator of the Tishomingo Baptist association of Mississippi. Therefore, since his appearance in the halls of congress in 1901 Mr. Candler has eschewed the theater. That form of amusement was against the tenets of his faith. Mr. Candler, however, is an exponent of the under-canvas drama. He likes the circus. WITH summer at hand, the Supreme court of the United States was asked a few days ago to adjudicate a case involving 50 cans of eggs. Nearly five months ago the United States district court for the southern district of Illinois decided that the eggs were not just the thing for human consumption and directed its marshal "totally to destroy them." The Supreme court was asked to pass on jurisdictional questions, but the eggs themselves were not brought into court, as the marshal may have performed his duty. statement that their income for 24 hours would never be needed, but would be amply sufficient for the additional education necessary to make her a teacher. The hope was expressed that early attention will be given her letter and that there will be no objection to complying with her wishes. But, alas, for the little daughter of the old commonwealth! No millionaire senator will ever see her neatly written, grammatically arranged and utterly frank letter. It was opened by a busy and unsentimental secretary, tossed into the "files of the senate," and only dust and darkness and disappointment will ever know its contents. Every once in a while members of congress get mighty funny letters. Representative Griest of Pennsylvania got one the other day, which is unique in epistolary correspondence. His constituency has, for one branch of it, a lot of Mennonites, and they are practically against all demonstration of affection. One sentence in the letter read, "For God's sake, fight this everlasting kissing. Put a stop to the dirty, filthy, sloppy habit," and the writer goes on to state that he thinks the habit of promiscuous kissing prevalent among both men and women should have an end put to it. Representative Griest declares that the kissers need not fear him. publications Senator and "Mrs. Theodore Burton" were among those invited to a recent social function at the capitol. In the course of duty a reporter asked Senator Burton solicitously regarding the costume that Mrs. Burton was wearing at the function, intending that its description should be added to the others in the general list. Senator Burton is fifty-nine years old, and during a varied political career has figured frequently in Washington dispatches as a congressman, as a senator and in other prominent roles. "What did Mrs. Burton wear at the function?" asked the society reporter. "Nothing." "Eh-what?" stuttered the reporter. "I guess you do not gather me, senator. I mean, can you give me a description of the gown that Mrs. Senator Burton wore at the reception." "Nothing," again replied the senator from Ohio, and then before the reporter could again gasp his surprise. Mr. Burton continued his remarks. "Because there is no Mrs. Senator Burton, and according to the present feelings of Mr. Senator Burton of Ohio there is not liable to be any Mrs. Senator Burton. "Mr. Senator Burton is a bachelor and intends to remain one." stirring, hair-raising demon of the air "Desperado" appeared with a circus in Washington. "I must see that fellow," said Mr. Candler. "I want to have my soul stirred and my hair raised. I must behold that deed of daring. I will go if it costs me my job in the next meeting of the Tishomingo Baptist association." Mr. Candler went to the circus. He went to see "Desperado" do his high dive and for no other purpose, but unfortunately he happened to have some tobacco with him. "I am paying my money to see the high dive and nothing else," announced the Tombigbee hero. After the show Representative Hughes of New Jersey met Mr. Candler in the lobby. "How did you like the show?" he asked. "What did you think of 'Desperado?' " 'Desperado' is all right," said Tombigbee. "He is the best that ever happened. I went there only to see him. I saw him climb to the top of the tent and then I turned around to spit and I heard a cheer and somebody near me said: 'Gracious heavens, he done it.' Then I came away." mitted their strutting around the barnyard by this time with chicks of their own at their sides. They made their way to the Hipolite Egg company of St. Louis, Mo. There the shells were stripped from them and Plymouth Rocks and Leghorns were as one in five-gallon cans. They were preserved in boric acid. When they were shipped to Thomas & Clarke, bakers, at Peoria, Ill., in the fall of 1909, the government obtained an order to seize them. The court held that the boric acid was a deleterious ingredient. The egg company asked the Supreme court to dispose of the case at once. One of the reasons for this request is that this is the first case in the Supreme court which involves the question of the jurisdiction of a federal court under the national purefood law and the extent to which the law applies to an article of food "after it has been shipped into a state." MAKING PIE CRUST DIFFICULT MAKING PIE CRUST DIFFICULT Few Women Seem to Know How to Prepare This Essential to Happiness. Who has not beheld that most pathetic of all things, the bride, attempting to make her first pie crust? Usually the most difficult culinary stunt is the first the inexperienced woman attempts, and she toils over it with sticky hands in a warm room, adding more and more flour so it will not cling to the roller, and in the end the crust that should be flaky is of the consistency of a board and can hardly be cut with the knife. To brides and others attempting pastry the first rule is never to make it in a warm room. The ideal rolling board is a marble slab. This is much cooler than a wooden board, and the dough will not stick so readily to it. The hands and the bowl in which the paste is mixed must also be thoroughly chilled with cold water. The butter used should be unsalted or have the salt mashed out of it. It should then be put in the ice box and thoroughly chilled. To a scant half pound of pastry flour add one teaspoonful of salt and two teaspoonfuls of butter. These should be well worked together with the tips of the fingers only, as the hand is too warm, and the mixture must be kent cool. Add gradually three-fourths of a cupful of cold water, mixing it into a paste. The paste should be soft, but not so that it clings to the rolling pin. Dust the board lightly and knead the paste until it is elastic and free from lumps. Do this as quickly as possible, for the longer you knead it the tougher it makes the flakes when baked. Let the paste stand for five minutes, covered with a bowl, in a cool spot, then roll out into an oblong sheet one-half inch in thickness. Place one-half pound of butter, which has been chilled and had the salt mashed out of it, at one end of this sheet of dough and fold the dough over it, the butter having been patted flat so that it covers one-half of the dough, press the open edges of this dough, wrapping together tightly to exclude the air, then fold one end of the paste over and the other under and roll lightly. This folding, turning and rolling should continue six times. If the paste should stick to the board at any time, immediately put it away to chill. The butter should not be allowed to be seen outside of its dough covering; when this is the case cover it immediately with flour. When rolled finally it should be one-half an inch thick. Macaroon Pudding. Soak six macaroons in one-half cup of milk (or use the tiny macaroons that may be bought in bulk, and soak about a dozen). Heat a pint of milk in a double boiler, add one beaten egg, two tablespoons cornstarch, pinch of salt and the macaroons. Stir well to make it smooth and cook about twenty minutes. Take from the fire and add a little vanilla. Butter a pudding dish, sprinkle sugar over the bottom and sides, turn in the pudding and sprinkle sugar on top. Cover and set where it will cool gradually. Serve very cold. The sugar will make a sauce, or you may use oranges also when you serve the pudding. Icina. To make the icing, put into a granite saucepan one cupful sugar and one-half cup water and boll gently, without stirring or shaking, until bubbles commence to rise from the bottom. This will take about five minutes. Beat the whites of two eggs to a stiff froth, and pour the hot syrup onto them in a thin stream, beating the mixture all the time. Continue to beat until the icing is thickened, then flavor with vanilla. Use all of this for the icing or put two-thirds between the cakes for the filling, and to the remainder of the icing add an ounce of melted chocolate and spread over the top of the cake. To melt the chocolate, shave fine into a cup and set in a pan placed over the tea kettle or in hot water. Band Portiere for Summer. The band portiere is a new idea in summer furnishings. Tapestry bands in a variety of color combinations are arranged alternately with groups of velour cords and tassels, one color predominating so the drapery may be chosen to harmonize with the other furnishings in the room. One set of portieres will answer for two rooms, as the bands are allike on both sides. They are made to fit doorways six to seven feet wide, and seven feet six inches high, the longest cord reaching to the ground. Spiced Rhubarb. Sprinkle $2\frac{1}{2}$ pounds of sliced rhubarb with one pound of sugar and let stand over night. Drain in the morning and add to the juice one cupful of water, one cupful of sugar, and one-half cupful of cider vinegar. Put on to boil with a spice bag containing one-half teaspoonful each of cloves, mace, allspice, ginger and cinnamon. Boil until it forms a nice syrup, then add rhubarb and boil until thick. Apple Puff Pudding. Peel, core and fill with sugar, six large or eight small apples. Bake slowly and cool in serving dish. Beat whites of two eggs, a pinch of cream of tartar, and three tablespoonfuls of powdered sugar; heap one or two spoonfuls on each apple and brown in the oven. Serve with custard made of the egg yolks. Half this recipe is enough for a small family. WOMEN'S ILLS. Many women who suffer with backache, bearing-down pain, headaches and nervousness do not know that these ailments are usually due to trouble with the kidneys. Doan's Kidney Pills remove the cause. 1 Mrs. Joseph Cross, Church St., Morrilton, Ark., says: "For weeks I was bent double by pain in my back and the kidney secretions were profuse. My feet and ankles were badly swollen and I had headaches and dizzy spells. Six doctors treated me without relief and I finally began taking Doan's Kidney Pills. They cured me."

BABY'S SCALP CRUSTED "Our little daughter, when three months old, began to break out on the head and we had the best doctors to treat her, but they did not do her any good. They said she had eczema. Her scalp was a solid scale all over. The burning and itching was so severe that she could not rest, day or night. We had about given up all hopes when we read of the Cuticura Remedies. We at once got a cake of Cuticura Soap, a box of Cuticura Ointment and one bottle of Cuticura Resolvent, and followed directions carefully. After the first dose of the Cuticura Resolvent, we used the Cuticura Soap freely and applied the Cuticura Ointment. Then she began to improve rapidly and in two weeks the scale came off her head and new hair began to grow. In a very short time she was well. She is now sixteen years of age and a picture of health. We used the Cuticura Remedies about five weeks, regularly, and then we could not tell she had been affected by the disease. We used no other treatments after we found out what the Cuticura Remedies would do for her. J. Fish and Ella M. Fish, Mt. Vernon, Ky., Oct. 12, 1909." Diplomacy. Here is a story about a diplomatic negro waiter; also about two well-known Kansas men, who can go by the names of Smith and Jones, just to tell the yarn. Smith and Jones look much allike and are frequently taken for each other. One day Smith was in a certain big hotel not a thousand miles from Kansas City and went into the dining room for dinner. The negro waiter busily brushed off the crumbs and said: "Why, how is you, Mr. Jones, how is you? I's glad to see you. I hasn't seen you since I waited on your table when you all used to have a little game upstaihs." "I'm afraid you are mistaken," said Smith, very quickly. "My name isn't Jones. You have the wrong man." "Nuff said; nuff said," smiled the negro, with much bowing and scraping.

DODD'S KIDNEY PILLS FOR ALL KIDNEY DISEASES FOR RHEUMATISM BRIGHT'S DISEASE DIABETES, BACKUCH ER 375 "Guaranteed" LORD OF THE SEA AGED MR. ZEUGLODON NOW RESTS IN NATIONAL MUSEUM. Skeleton of Monster Some Millions of Years Old, But He Was Quite a Boy Once, Say the Scientists. Stretched out, roller-coaster fashion, in a long room at the new National museum in Washington, and serving as the sole ornament, is a skeleton which, if scientists read aright, is all that remains of a one-time ferocious lord of the sea, and which may also be the museum in Washington, and serving as the sole ornament, is a skeleton which, if scientists read aright, is all that remains of a one-time ferrocious lord of the sea, and which may also be the origin of the well-known stories of sea serpents. The creature whose skeleton reposes at the National museum is a zeuglodon. From the tip of its tall to the tip of its nose this skeleton measures 55 feet, and, as nearly as can be estimated from the contour of its ribs, it measured from five to six feet through the diaphragm. Its head is about six feet long, which is considered exceptionally small, for in the case of the skeleton of a whale in the possession of the institution which is really slightly longer, the head measures almost 16 feet in length. The name zeuglodon is not the one by which the creature was first known. In 1832 a Philadelphia scientist called it a "basilosaurus," believing it to be one of the reptile family. This, however, was discovered to be wrong, as it is a mammal, and so it was named zeuglodon from the teeth which it possesses, that term signifying yoke teeth. The zeuglodon's back teeth are notched and are similar to a yoke. The zeuglodon was found in Alabama several years ago. This is not the first creature of its kind to be unearthed in that part of the country, although it is among the few complete specimens. Different parts of the skeletons of these creatures have been found embedded in rocks by the natives of that state. These bones have been put to use as corner foundations for rude shacks or as the central pieces of fences, boards being placed across them, thereby forming a primitive means of bounding the land. It was not until someone above the average intelligence displayed by the poorer inhabitants appeared that the Smithsonian museum ever became aware of the existence of this deposit in the earth in that region. Dr. Charles Schuschert, now of Yale university, but formerly with the Smithsonian museum, went down to Alabama and looked over the situation. A second expedition was made two years later, the result of the two trips being the skeleton which is now being prepared for exhibition. The skeleton is being prepared in the division of vertebrate paleontology, under the guidance of J. W. Gidley, custodian of the fossil mammals of that division. As the result of careful study and a thorough knowledge of fossil mammals Mr. Gidley and his associates have been able to come to some interesting conclusions in regard to this creature. The most startling of these conclusions to an unscientific mind is the fact that it is estimated that the zeuglodon lived some 3,000,000 years ago. This is the reason that the skeleton, having been found in Alabama, does not present any great phenomenon to the present owners, as it is accounted for in the fact that what is Alabama today was then nothing but water, and that the zeuglodon, having died in that portion of the sea, sank into the deposit at the bottom. It was, therefore, brought to the top by whatever means converted that portion of the world into land. As far as the length of time between the period when the zeugledon was alive and today is concerned, the scientists freely admit that it is simply a matter of guesswork. This, however, does not mean that the date of its existence is set with the same random as though it had been done by guesswork on the part of one not a scientist. Guesswork with them is a matter of ceaseless calculation and study, and although it may appear that 3,000,000 or 4,000,000 years ago is rather a far period at which to put the date, Mr. Gidley has in his division the skeletons of mammals which, it is believed, lived 7,000,000 or 8,000,000 years ago. An interesting fact is that the earlier mammals are all remarkably small. The labor demanded in preparing a skeleton of this kind for exhibition purposes is enormous. Each bone has to have the rock with which it is surrounded removed. This is not only a difficult piece of work, but in the case of the zeuglodon it was even more difficult, as in many cases the persons at work removing the rock did not know the exact outline of the bone, and were unable to tell when they were upon it. After the work of removing the rock from the skeleton had been completed, over a year being consumed, the next step was to place it in position. This was done, and for some time it was exhibited in this manner. Fifty-five feet of skeleton stretched out on a level platform does not awaken the imagination of those familiar with mammals of the sea, and so the zeuglodon was removed and will not be seen again until it has been placed in a lifelike position, with ribs and flippers complete. Even the simple matter of giving the zeuglodon a lifelike poise is consuming considerable of Mr. Gidley's time. PRESIDENT TAFT AS GOLFER Reporters Understand That He Must Win No Matter What the Result May Be. President Taft enjoys a game of golf—and he gets more out of a game than the ordinary player. Not only has he he the spirit of playing, but he has also the enjoyment of reading the newspaper account of the game afterward. These reports generally are written by reporters who could not tell a "mashie" from a "stymie" and consequently there are some weird suggestions concerning the president's play. One thing about the careful reporter of the president's golf games is that the president never is defeated. It matters not with whom he plays, whether it be the champions of the United States, the vice-president, Senator Bourne, General Edwards or Archie Butt, in all contests the president either wins or at least ties the game. Edwards and Butt always are easily defeated—on paper, but the games are a little closer with the champions and the vice-president. "I am perfectly satisfied," remarked Vice-President Sherman when he and Senator Bourne were discussing the game, "if they don't have the president beat me more than one. When they make it seven or more it is a little too much. Of course I understand that the president must win—in the newspapers—but it is hardly fair for them to rub it in too much." Then the vice-president and Bourne exchanged comments about the game—the president's game—using terms which would have needed translation before they could be wholly understood. There is a story that Bourne was once a more enthusiastic golfer than he is now and that he became so disgusted with his poor playing that he broke his clubs, intending to quit. Bourne denies that now and says that he has reached that stage of philosophy where he does not grieve over a bad stroke, but gets his enjoyment out of the good ones that he makes from time to time. PRESIDENT'S COOK TO WED Chief of White House's Culinary Department to Be Bride of Policeman. Politics and all other subjects are insignificant topics among those few attaches of the White House who know the big secret of a romance affecting a pair included in the personnel of the president's home. Everybody is trying to hold the secret within the confines of the great walls of the executive mansion. They have been unable to do so. The story got out several days ago among a select few. The first cook of the White House, Martha Petersen, a good looking Swede, who went to Washington from New York at the beginning of the Taft administration, is to become the bride of Policeman Mulvey, whose good name indicates that he is not a Swede. The exact date for the wedding is not known. Policeman Mulvey has been on the White House force for 12 years or more. He did duty in the grounds for years, when some time ago, in recognition of faithful services, he was given an inside assignment. He is a fine looking fellow about fifty years old, and is the senior by a num- of years of Miss Petersen. He is a widower, with one grown child. Discipline around the White House is mighty strict. It was powerless to prevent the good looking Mulvey from doing attentive little things for the cook, and in time she got to look upon him as just the man she would admire and respect over all others she had known. It grew on both so quietly and in such a dignified way that nobody suspected its growth. Mulvey just couldn't help it and Miss Petersen didn't try hard to resist. The rumor is that president and Mrs. Taft will give the couple a fine present and try to induce them to remain in their respective positions. RANGES ARE DISAPPEARING Other Means of Caring for Stock Must Be Found, Says Senator Warren. Senator Warren of Wyoming is not only one of the big men of the senate, but he is also a full-fledged western man in every sense of the word. Going to Wyoming after serving as a soldier boy in the Civil war, he engaged in the stock business in the days when the range was free to everybody who wanted to use it. "I told the stockmen of the west long ago," said Senator Warren, to a Washington reporter, "that the time was coming when the range would disappear, and that we would have to seek other means for taking care of our stock. We must now make arrangements for feeding the stock in the winter, for there is not enough food for them on the ranges. A few have taken heed of this, and will come out all right. But hay alone is not sufficient for the feeding of this stock. We shipped more than 50 car loads of corn into our stock region last winter in order to feed them and make them out all right."

Workman Drowns in Grand. Shoshone. — While working on the electrical project of the Central Colorado Power company Tuesday afternoon a workman named Johnson lost his footing and was carried into the grand river. It is supposed he was killed instantly, as the current is swift at this point. Globe Smelter Strike. Denver. — Up to Tuesday night the situation at the Globe smelter plant, where nearly 500 men are out on strike for higher wages, was the same as at the hour they walked out, according to General Manager Franklin Guiterman. Mr. Guiterman asserts that no increase whatever has been granted to the men. It was rumored that they had been granted the old scale which prevailed before the panic and hard times in 1908, but General Manager Guiterman absolutely denied that the man had been offered this raise. State Board of Immigration. Denver.—On the first of June the Colorado State Commercial Association went out of business and the work of advertising and promoting the resources of Colorado will be continued by the Colorado State Board of Immigration, recently organized in accordance with an act of the last Legislature.

She was a little fairy of seven, with eyes like diamonds and hair like spun gold, and she was romping with a half dozen playmates. Touching a fine-looking youngster on the shoulder, she challenged him with, "You can't catch me." Off they started, she twisting and dodging with the dexterity of a half-back on a football team, and he following her every movement in close pursuit. The excitement of the chase made her scream with laughter. The little fugitive finally brought up against a fence, breathless and panting, and her pursuer, throwing his arms about her, shouted: "There, I've caught you!" "Oh, yes," gasped the little fairy, "but it was 'cause my laugh broke and I couldn't run any more." A Young Diplomat. Johnny—Going to Sunday school?

THE Colorado Statesman 1824 Curtis Street THE HAT THE diaphanous picture hats in black or white, and the dead white of chip hats, makes a back ground upon which the fancy of the designer can pose her "dreams of beauty," in materials and colors. Many colored ostrich plumes have provided color combinations that vie with those in flowers. Ostrich, in two or three shades of one color, in two or three colors, and even in brilliant dashes of many colors in the same plume have been brought out and placed in the hands of milliners throughout the country. It is the grace of plumes that endear them to the heart of every designer of really beautiful millinery. If securely fastened by the stem to the body of the hat and left to its own sweet will (or curve, rather), and the law of gravity, the ostrich feather will dispose its length most gracefully. The trimmer cannot improve these lines which nature has drawn with the supple quill and dalty flumes. Blown by the wind the airy fibers move in graceful lines and come back to rest in the original positions that they held before they were disturbed. This is true of the "skeleton" willow ostrich (plumes with tied flumes) more especially. In tying the flumes to lengthen them, the manufacturer is able to introduce new colors or shades and produce blended Claim to Beauty Cannot Be Admitted Without the Possession of That Charm. The fascination of a clear, fair skin is recognized by every woman. No matter how regular her features, if the skin is blotched a woman loses all her power to attract. A good skin is an evidence of health, pure blood and right living. Powder will not cover an imperfect complexion, but will give it a mottled, livid appearance. A new preparation gives a soft, youthful bloom to the skin, will not show and is absolutely beneficial in every way. It contains no zinc, peroxide or white lead, and may be used on a baby—surely a perfect test of its purity. It will remove the tired, old expression engendered by pain or fatigue and the haggard look which the bustle of modern life will give to even a youthful face. Rarely indeed can a beautifier be found which cannot be detected, and the obvious use of cosmetics robs a woman of that air of refinement which makes a lady. A fresh, natural appearance exacts willing admiration from either sex, and such is certainly to be obtained by the use of this dainty preparation. A new phase of the Napoleon hat, in white linen, lined with dark butcherblue linen. As in foulards and other silk materials the polka dot is a favorite in the mixtures of silk and cotton. harmony or contrast, as he desires. These plumes are light in weight and very beautiful. In black they have a tendency to come to pieces. For some reason the black dye so effects the feather that moisture makes it shrink or "crawl" and the knots unite. But in colors they wear fairly well. Women have been buying fragile materials too long to dispense with willow plumes on that account. The natural ostrich plume with wide spread of fibers, slightly curled, should be selected if one is buying black. A good ostrich plume, moderately heavy, and made of uniformly good stock, will prove about the most lasting article and the most satisfactory in which the investor in millinery can put her money. Two plumes of this character will do service summer and winter. They are at their loveliest on the black picture hat for midsummer. This hat, of hemp or hair braid, with broad, sweeping flare of brim, through which the light filters, is the ideal model for a "stunning" effect. It is cool looking and always distinguished. In white with plumes in white and black it looks as chaste as frost, and throws a becoming reflection upon the skin of the wearer. The wide brims require this sweep of plumes in which trimmers delight. JULIA BOTTOMLEY. Materials Familiar to a Past Generation Have Again Become Popular Favorites. An inspection of the materials for summer wear show that certain old-time, reliable materials have returned under new names, but our mothers will recognize their friends in the shape of the coarse linens that resemble "oatmeal" cloth, hopsacking and the various basket weaves. The feature that commends itself to many women is the fact that the weave is so evident that it serves for decoration, and, therefore, requires very little other ornamentation. Simple braiding designs or buttons are generally sufficient for the morning dress, while the square meshes of these coarse fabrics form excellent backgrounds upon which designs in cross-stitching (done with woolen or linen threads) may be added. When the individual touch of embroidery is added, these materials are excellent for afternoon wear, and although the design is more conventional than the trailing vines worked by the weavers of 50 years ago, the effect warrants the time expended in the construction. To Use India Print. Blue and white India print cut into blas strips of varying width makes an excellent trimming for a child's dress. Here is something unique and yet beautiful, that will not fade and is by no means too old-looking for a little girl. India print is an altogether desirable and durable stuff in color and quality, and can be used on fine or coarse white linen without the least danger of the colors spreading into the white surface. Buttons covered with the print will add style and then, too, the end of material you have left will do for a band round the dark blue or white straw hat. Biscult Color Liked. Biscuit color is in great demand. Of course, it is perishable, but dear to the heart of woman. When this shade forms a back- ground for a cross-bar of old rose in a thin line it is fascinating. HIS LOVE NOT REAL ARTICLE Protestations Proved False When Woman's Wit Put Glib Admirer to the Test. A reporter ventured, on John D. Rockefeller's seventieth birthday, to question him about his very remarkable present, a jar of petroleum butter, the latest by-product of Standard Oil that the remarkable Standard Oil chemists have evolved. Mr. Rockefeller, however, would not discuss the petroleum butter. He shook his head, laughed, and said: "Young man, I am ignorant about this butter. I am as ignorant as the man in the fable. "There is a fable, you know, about a man in an eastern city who followed a lady about the bazars and snops a long time. Finally she turned and said: "Why do you follow me?" "Because," he answered, 'you are very beautiful, and my soul goes out to you in love.' "The lady smiled and said: "But I am not half so beautiful as my sister there." She pointed to the fountain in the square. 'Look at her, filling her water jar. She is a vision of loveliness. Go, then, and make love to her.' "The man took the lady at her word. He hastened to the fountain. But the maiden filling the jar there was very, very ugly, and he returned and said, angrily: "Your sister beautiful! Why did you tell me such a falsehood?" "Ah, but why,' said the lady, 'did you tell me a falsehood first?" "But I didn't,' said he. 'When,' he added, 'did I?" "When you told me you loved me,' said the lady. 'For if it had been true that you loved me, you would never have gone off to make love to another woman.'" Britain's Gift of Peace. The indispensable foundation for the working out of any principles of government is internal peace, and peace is the greatest of the blessings that British rule has bestowed upon India. The ravages of invaders, the horrors of civil war between state and state, race and race creed and creed, have utterly ceased. An occasional clash between Moammedans and Hindus, easily and promptly quelled, is nowadays all that disturbs the tranquility of a continent once the unceasing prey of strife and disorder. But beneath the truce imposed by British power the old hatreds and passions are still straining, and it is a curious example of human inconsequence that the Bengalis, who have done most to impair the strength of the British Raj, and who have ever agitated for its abolition, would be the first to suffer were it to be overthrown.—From Sydney Brooke's "British Rule in India" in the Century. No Danger. Much sobered by the importance of the news he had to communicate, youthful Thomas strode into the house and said, breathlessly: "Mother, they have a new baby next door, and the lady there is awful sick. Mother, you ought to go right in and see her." "Yes, dear," said his mother. "I will go over in a day or two just as soon as she gets better." "But, mother," persisted Thomas, "I think you ought to go in right away; she is real sick, and maybe you can do something to help." "Yes, dear," said the mother, patiently, "but wait a day or so until she is just a little better." Thomas seemed much dissatisfied at his mother's apparent lack of neighbor interest, and then something seemed to dawn upon him, for he blurted out: "Mother, you needn't be afraid—it ain't catching."—Cosmopolitan. Good at Addition: Sammy's mother talked to him long and earnestly about the poor marks he had been getting in his work at school. She painted in alluring colors the career of the little boy who studies his lessons and gains the love and respect of his teachers. She went even further; she promised him a whole dime, all for his own. Sammy seemed in pressed. That afternoon he returned from school fairly dancing with joy. "Oh, mother," he shouted, "I got a hundred!" "Sammy!" cried his delighted mother. She hugged him and kissed him and petted him and—gave him a dime. "And what did you get a hundred in?" she finally asked. "In two things," replied Sammy, without hesitation, "I got 40 in readin' and 60 in spellin'."—Everybody's. The Same Dimensions. The bride-to-be had the air of one who is unreconciled to the existing state of affairs. "Can't we take a wedding trip, as we'd planned?" she asked, plaintively. "Not just now," said the young man, "on account of my partner's illness." "I thought it would be such fun taking that six days' journey in the cars!" she sighed. "We'll, now, see here," said the young man. "If you take the flat I looked a yesterday, it'll be just the same as living in the parlor car stateroom, except that the scenery won't change." -Youth's Companion.
