THE COLORADO STATESMAN THE JOURNAL OF THE WEST. LABOR SHALL BE FREE RACE COUNTRY PARTY GREATEST COMEDIAN Booker T. Washington calls Bert Williams"A tremendous asset of the Negro Race." He earns from $25,000 to $40,000 a year. VOL. XVII. GREAT CO Booker T. Washington calls dous asset of the Negro $25,000 to $4 When I go to the theatre, which is not often, I generally go to hear the colored comedian, Bert Williams. I go to hear him, however, as often as I have opportunity, and I am seldom in the same city with him that I do not find myself, if I happen to have an hour of leisure, drifting in the direc- tion of the theatre in which he is play- It I were a dramatic critic I suppose I might give some sound logical reasons for liking Bert William's style and methods. But I am not a critic and vaudeville performances, as a rule, strike me as tiresome. There is so much that seems to me strained and artificial and lacking in the flavor of ordinary wholesome human nature. But Bert William's humor strikes me as the real thing. There is nothing second-handed or second-rate about it. His fun seems to flow spontaneously and without effort, as if it came from some deep natural source in the man himself. Besides, there is a quality and flavor about William's humor which indicates that it is the natural expression of a thoughtful and observing mind. I have noticed him standing about in a barber shop or among a crowd of ordinary colored people, the quietest man in the whole gathering. All the time, however, he was studying and observing, enjoying the characters that he saw around him and getting material for some of those quaint songs and stories in which he reproduces the natural humor and philosophy of the Negro people. As I have said, if I were a dramatic critic I might give some sound reasons for liking Bert Williams, but the best reason I can give for liking his quaint songs and humorous sayings is that he puts into his form some of the quality and philosophy of the Negro race. In fact, it seems to me that Bert Williams has done for one side of the Negro life and character just what the old plantation Negroes did for another—gives expression and put into a form which everyone can understand and appreciate something of the inner life and peculiar genius, if I may so say, of the Negro. There is occasionally, as there is, I suppose, in all real humor, a touch of real pathos, as for instance in his quaint little song in which he explains "Why Adam Sinned:" "Adam neber had no Mammy For to take him on her knee, And tell him what was right, and him show him Things he'd ought to see. I know, down in my heart, He'd 'a let dat apple be; But Adam neber had no dear old Mammy." "Adam neber had no childhood, Playin' round de cabin do.' He neber had no pickaninny life. He started in a big grown-up Bert Williams was born at New Providence, Nassau, in the British Bahama Islands, and is now thirty-five years of age. His grandfather was a white man, the Danish and Spanish Consul for the Bahama Islands, who married a quadroom. His grandfather, who owned a number of small ships, made considerable money during the Civil War, which he lost later in investments in the United States. When he was two years old, Frederick Williams, Mr. William's father, came to New York. Here he learned the trade of papier-mache maker, and this brought him into connection with the New York theatres. Thus Bert Williams got first acquaintance with the theatre when he was a boy. From New York his father moved to Riverside, California, and Bert Williams, later graduating at the Riverside High school, went to San Francisco, with the idea of preparing there for college. His purpose was to be a civil engineer. He was for a time bell boy at the Hollenbeck Hotel in Los Angeles and went to school at night. At this time, Williams says, he was "a great almanac man." He was the young man who always read, remembered and related the latest jokes, and he was always popular at the entertainments that the colored people were accustomed to give at the churches and elsewhere. One day a colored man named Lew Johnson, who kept a barber shop in San Francisco, asked Bert Williams if he did not want to join a little company that he intended to take up along the coast to play the lumber camps, between San Francisco and Eureka, and then come back by way of the mining camps at the western edge of the mountains. That was the way Bert Williams gained his entrance to the stage. After his return from this trip he went to work in a vaudeville theatre, in San Francisco. It wasn't a very high-class theatre, but it was a great school for him, and Mr. Williams says he learned his profession there. Starting in this humble way, as a member of a little mountebank minstrel show, Mr. Williams has gone on quietly, modestly gaining the goodwill of the public and the respect of his associates, until he now has a secure and established position in public favor. Perhaps I ought to mention one incident in that career. In 1903, when the Williams and Walker Company were playing at the Shaftesbury theatre in London, England, Mr. Williams was invited to attend a lawn party at Buckingham palace to entertain the guests at a birthday party of the present Prince of Wales, grandson of the late King Edward VII. There he succeeded in making himself a great favorite with the little prince, and princes, who were anxious, especially, that he should teach them all his dances. DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 24 1910. Let me add, in conclusion, that during all the years I have known Bert Williams I have never heard him whine or cry about his color, or about any racial discrimination. He has gone right on, in season and out of season, doing his job, perfecting himself in his work, till he has reached the top round in his specialty. A few years ago, George Walker, his partner, lost his health and for a number of years has been unable to do any work on the stage. The finer side of Mr. William's life is shown by the fact that during all Mr. Walker's illness Mr. Williams has contributed regularly toward his support and has left nothing undone to make Mr. Walker comfortable and happy. Bert Williams is a tremendous asset of the Negro race. He is an asset because he has succeeded in actually doing something, and, because he has succeeded, the fact of his success helps the Negro many times more than he could help the Negro by merely contenting himself to whine and complain about racial difficulties and racial discriminations. The fact is that the American people are ready to honor and to reward any man who—does something that is worth while, no matter whether he is black or white, and Bert William's career is simply another illustration of that fact. BOOKER T. WASHINGTON. American Magazine. NEGRO SCHOOLS Beverly, Mass., August 26. President Taft attended at the home of Mrs. Robert E. Bradley, at Prides Crossing, this afternoon, a meeting of the Board of Trustees of Hampton Institute and delivered an address on Negro education. The President especially pleaded for more liberal financial assistance for schools like Hampton and Tuskegee and their offspring. In his address to the Hampton Trustees President Taft said: "I am not a millionaire, and I have never had the feeling of one, but some time one's imagination takes life and you wonder what you would do if you had an income of $5,000,000 or $10,000,000 a year and had the ordinary feelings of a man who wished to help his fellow men. It seems to me that one would like first to find those things to which he could be certain he might give his money and get a return of good to human kind, and in looking about I am very sure that he could not find a place in which he could, for the benefit of human kind, invest his money with more certainty of returns than in Hampton Institute. "Education is the solution of the race question when is is directed toward giving the Negro a self-respect and a belief in the dignity of labor. Openings For Physicians. Kansas City, Mo., Sept. 13. In no city in the United States where the Negro question is discussed from a social and economic stand point have such excellent provisions been made for the Negro contingency. October 1 will witness the opening of a $500,000 hospital in the heart of Kansas City for white patients, known as the General Hospital. The old City Hospital comprising two hundred beds has been remodeled and it will be used exclusively for Negroes, the hospital board having spent $12,000 for sanitary and other necessary improvements. A staff of Negro physicians and surgeons will alternate with some of the best known white physicians and surgeons. Four internes from good medical schools and eight young ladies with at least a high school education will be given service. As for sanitary conditions, equipment and location, it will compare favorably with any hospital in the country. Dr. T. C. Unthank is receiving applications from young physicians and nurse apprentices all over the country. A bath-house and play ground to be used exclusively for Negroes is being erected on Forest Square. It will be in charge of Negro officials appointed by the city administration. Since the city adopted the civil service rule, the Negroes have demanded substantial things that are a credit to any race of people anywhere. These things are the direct result of the very intelligent political leadership of Lawyer W. Clarence Hueston and Dr. T. C. Unthank. Louisiana Governor Declares God Made Differences in Races. New Orleans, Sept. 9.—On Sept. 6, declaring that there is a difference marked by God between Negroes and whites Gov. J. Y. Sanders created a mild sensation in his Labor Day address last night before 3,000 persons. Someone in the throng shouted to the Governor asking about the recent Compulsory Education bill that was passed by the last Louisiana Legislature in the face of powerful opposition. "I have stated time and again," replied Governor Sanders, "that if we could have compulsory education for whites alone I would not be opposed to it, but I am certainly opposed to taxing your pocket and my pocket to educate the black man. "I believe there is a difference marked by God between the white and the black man, and I do not believe so-called higher education is good for the Negro, and, except industrially, I am opposed to it." RACE NEWS GATHERED FROM VARIOUS SOURCES The Colored Fair Association of Aiken, S. C., and the adjoining counties has been commissioned to organize with a capital stock of $2,000. F. A. Peters of Graniteville, Alex Williams of Aiken, and R. B. Mabrey of Langley, representative Negro citizens are the petitioners. New Orleans, Sept. 14.—The largest gathering of Negroes ever held in the city of New Orleans, met today when the president, Dr. E. C. Morris of Helena, Ark.. called to order about 7000 delegates to the national convention of Negro Baptists, Governor Sanders and Mayor Behrman delivered addresses of welcome. A movement is on foot among the Baltimore admirers of the late Joe Gaus, former lightweight champion of the world, to have a life size bust of the dead champion made and presen ed to his widow. The bust will be made from his death mask and will be unveiled at Gans' Goldfield hotel, at Baltimore, on the dead champion's birthday, which occurs on Friday, Nov. 25. Baltimore, Md.—By the will of Edward J. W. Faten, a colored caterer, who died here recently, $15,000 is left to found an industrial school in Prince George county, Maryland. His farm of 500 acres in that county is to be the seat of the proposed school, which is to be named after him. He was a widower and left no children. Pittsburg, Pa., Sept. 13.—Chas. W. Peters, of 3013 Grant Boulevard, has built a biplane which he has on exhibition at the corner of Francis street and Centre avenue that is causing people from all parts of the city to view with pride and admiration. Mr. Peters says his machine will prove wonders in aviation and will rival the best efforts of the greatest aviators. The machine is 23 feet long and 23 feet deep. It carries a propeller, two main planes, each 23 by 8 feet, and a front lifting plane. He has constructed a horizontal and verticle rudder and claims to have made discoveries never before made by any of the world's aviators. Three weeks ago Peters made a flight from the top of a hill on Francis street. He used the main plane and with the assis- NO.2 tance of a balance rudder succeeded gliding 80 feet to the ground. He says he can fly 60 miles an hour. The machine is built to carry two passengers. It is made of spruce, steel and canvas. Charleston, S. C., September 13. The Hospital and Training School for colored nurses on Cannon street, located in this city, is in a thriving and prosperous condition. Many patients from the city and outside are received every week, and the wards are usually in a crowded condition. Six women have been received in the nurse-training department since the graduation exercises in June, and many applicants are now waiting for admittance as soon as vacancies occur. An effort will be made in the near future to build a nurses' dormitory to provide for larger accommodations for additional students. The accommodations now are inadequate for the taking in of any more nurse pupils at present. A fair will be given in the near future to create a fund to commence this building. Washington, D. C., Sept 14. It has been discovered by Dr. E. E Just, colored professor of biology at Howard University, that buried in the head of each butterfish are thousands of embryo tapeworms. Dr. Just further states that butterfish are infected with these parasites through association with the hammer-head shark. The attention of the health department has been directed to the matter, and J. C. Haley, food inspector of the District, has been making some observations. The result of his investigations cannot be determined, but Mr. Haley affirms Dr. Just's statement, and declares that fully 90 per cent. of butterfish are so infected. Butterfish are caught in large quantities in the warm waters of the gulf stream and off the coast of the Southern States. They are highly prized as food, and while the supply sent to Washington is small compared to the total amount of fish sent to this city, they are abundant. This discovery by Professor Just, who is yet but a young man, is regarded here as highly important, and at the same time a tribute to his ability as a learned biologist. English Goods in Argentina. The total sale of English goods in Argentina averages $100,000,000 annually. COUNTRY ALL RIGHT A STRIKINGLY STRONG ARTICLE BY COL. HARVEY. THE WRITER SEES NO CLOUD "A Plea for the Conservation of Common Sense" That Is Meeting With Cordial Approval. A strikingly strong article by Colonel George Harvey in the North American Review, for September, is written in a view of such hopefulness for the American future that it has attracted wide attention. The article is entitled, "A Plea for the Conservation of Common Sense" and it is meeting with the cordial approval of business men of all shades of political opinion throughout the entire country. In part Colonel Harvey says: "Unquestionably a spirit of unrest dominates the land. But, if it be true that fundamentally the condition of the country is sound, must we necessarily succumb to despondency, abandon effort looking to retrieval and cringe like cravens before clouds that only threaten? Rather ought we not to analyze conditions, search for causes, find the root of the distress, which even now exists only in men's minds, and then, after the American fashion, apply such remedies as seems most likely to produce beneficent results? Capital and Labor Not Antagonistica "The Link that connects labor with capital is not broken but we may not deny that it is less cohesive than it should be or than conditions warrant. Financially, the country is stronger than ever before in its history. Recovery from a panic so severe as that of three years ago was never before so prompt and comparatively complete. The masses are practically free from debt. Money is held by the banks in abundance and rates are low. "Why, then, does capital pause upon the threshold of investment? The answer, we believe, to be plain. It awaits adjustment of the relations of government to business. * * * The sole problem consists of determining how government can maintain an even balance between aggregations of interests, on the one hand, and the whole people, on the other, protecting the latter against extortion and saving the former from mad assaults. "The solution is not easy to find for the simple reason that the situation is without precedent. But is not progress being made along sane and cautious lines? * * * "Is not the present, as we have seen, exceptionally secure? What, then, of preparations for the future? Patriotism is the basis of our institutions. And patriotism in the minds of our youth is no longer linked solely with fireworks and deeds of daring. It is taught in our schools. A new course has been added—a course in loyalty. Methodically, our children learn how to vote, how to conduct primaries, conventions and elections, how to discriminate between qualifications of candidates and, finally, how to govern as well as serve. They are taught to despise bribery and all forms of corruption and fraud as treason. Their creed, which they are made to know by heart, is not complex. It is simple, but comprehensive, no less beautiful in diction than lofty in aspiration. These are the pledges which are graven upon their memories: "As it is cowardly for a soldier to run away from battle, so it is cowardly for any citizen not to contribute his share to the well-being of his country. America is my own dear land; she nourishes me, and I will love her and do my duty to her, whose child, servant and civil soldier I am. "As the health and happiness of my body depend upon each muscle and nerve and drop of blood doing its work in its place, so the health and happiness of my country depend upon each citizen doing his work in his place. "These young citizens are our hostages to fortune. Can we not safely assume that the principles animating their lives augur well for the permanency of the Republic? When before have the foundation stones of continuance been laid with such care and promise of durability? "The future, then, is bright. And the present? But one thing is needful. No present movement is more laudable than that which looks to conservation of natural resources. But let us never forget that the greatest inherent resource of the American people is Common Sense. Let that be conserved and applied without cessation, and soon it will be found that all the ills of which we complain but know not of are only such as attend upon the growing pains of a great and blessed country. Spiritualization. Religion should be native. It should be concrete and applicable. Religion is the natural expression of living, not a set of actions or of habits, or a posture of the mind added to the daily life. The type of religion, herefore, is conditioned on the kind of living, and the kind of living is conditioned, in its turn, very largely on the physical and economic effectiveness of lige. The religion of the open country should run deep into the indigenous affairs of the open country. LITTLE COLORADO ITEMS. Small Happenings Occurring Over the State Worth Telling. Steamboat Springs is grading and cementing sidewalks to the extent of $15,000. Fort Collins beets are found to contain better sugar content than during the two previous seasons. The Colorado Electric Light, Power and Railway convention at Glenwood is the largest they ever held. Secretary Ballinger was in Denver Wednesday and delivered an address. He is on his way to Washington. Farmers of the Grover district are planning to raise an immense amount of winter wheat. One man has 1,000 acres planted. D. H. Carlton, one of the first settlers of Greeley and an original Union colonist, died Monday night in Pleasant Valley, aged 86. In the Walsenburg and Picton districts the towns have turned out to run down a half blood negro-Indian, named Henry Wortham, who assaulted an 18-year-old girl. Colorado Springs is in correspondence with the Wright Brothers, planning an aviation exhibition next fall—a suggestive time of the year to an aviator, by the way. The construction force of the Independent Telephone company, building a line from Omaha to Denver, is at work near Fort Collins with a large crew, and pushing work. Many notable men from various sections of the country will attend the celebration at the formal opening of the Denver Chamber of Commerce's new building November 15th. The Boulder Commercial Club is planning a new road to the farming districts, running from Boulder to Valmont and connecting with Louisville, Lafayette and other eastern towns by the old Arapahoe road. The new St. Stephens Boys' Boarding school has opened at Austin Bluffs, northeast of Colorado Springs. Gibson Bell, head master, will have three assistants. Only ten boys are at hand to enter. Most of the witnesses and jurors at Steamboat Springs, in attendance on the District Court had to bring their own bedding, on account of the Hahn's Peak fire of two months ago. There are about 150 in attendance. James Collins was finde $50 and costs at Greeley for bootlegging. Thomas Gervals, one of the alleged rioters at Frederick, was bound over to the County Court and his bond fixed to the amount of $1,000. The Weld County Poultry and Pet Stock Association will hold its exhibition in Greeley Dec. 14, 15, 16 and 17. C. H. Rhoades of Topeka, Kan., will be the judge. The association which was organized recently has already 100 members. Preparations have been completed for one of the biggest days ever celebrated in Weld county when Friday Ault will hold its annual carnival and show to its visitors exhibits of its splendid crops and the hustling town of Ault is less than a dozen years old. The cannery at Fort Collins started Tuesday. Only about a thirty-day run is expected on account of the shortage of tomatoes, but growers declare that they have never had better yields, and that the quality is exceptionally good. Only tomatoes will be canned here this year. One of the most interesting features to be seen at the Weld county fair this year, which will open Monday, will be the four generations of horses owned by John Daughlin. The oldest weighs 1,000 pounds, the next in years, 1,300, the following 1,800 and the fourth is a small colt. Six thousands of bushels of wheat a day are being delivered by the farmers to the Denver, Laramie & Northwestern railroad at the new town of Millikan, in Weld county. The wheat is bought by the elevator people and while thousands of bushels are stored, thousands are shipped out every day. The State Board of Health has received a report of the birth of triplets in Weld county. They are of the good, old and somewhat numerous, family of Jones and their names are Vivian, Verna and Vada. Any idea that the Jones family is liable to become extinct should be put in cold storage. Automobile riding for pleasure promises to be revolutionized by a novel wheel, the invention of Dr. C. H. Downing, a dentist of Evans, who Tuesday filed his intention to take out a patent. The wheel proposes to do away with ordinary jarring of the machine and will work wonders for smooth riding. Through a mutual agreement the towns of Kansas holding membership in the Arkansas Valley Commercial Association have withdrawn from the association and henceforth there will be two associations, known as the Arkansas Valley Commercial Association of Kansas and the Arkansas Valley Commercial Association of Colorado. The dissolution was caused by the water controversy between the people of Kansas and of Colorado who live in the Arkansas valley. Glimpses of street life in all climes, true in detail and picturesque and pleasing in effect, will be given at the "Streets of All Nations," to be held in the auditorium, Denver, under the auspices of the Woman's club during the week beginning October 17. Monday President Taft's army engineer inspectors met with Palisade ranchers who are protesting against the proposed dam and tunnel of the $3,000,000 Grand Valley irrigation projects, claiming their orchards will be destroyed.

Denver—To complete preliminary plans for the organization of Denver's new national bank, the City National, T. A. Cosgriff of Cheyenne, Wyo., one of the principal owners, arrived in the city Monday. Mr. Cosgriff, who is one of three wealthy brothers, all of whom are interested in the new bank, stated that either J. B. Cosgriff or J. E. Cosgriff would probably assume management of the new bank and take up his residence here. Indecorous Luptonites. Fort Lupton.—Declaring that they would burn the whole town of Fort Lupton, William Sheldon, Harry Boan and Thomas Skinner, who were in the city jail for drunkenness, ripped open the mattresses of their cots Tuesday night and set fire to the excelsor in them. They then threw the burning material from the window and by their shouts brought half of the population to the scene. The men, while intoxicated, broke into a grocery store and helped themselves to provisions. They were tried in court in the morning, found guilty and each will serve ninety days in the county jail for drunkenness and malicious mischief. $300,000 Colorado Industry. Denver.—The United States Zinc Company of Pueblo and the Denver Fire Clay Company of this city have established a monopoly of the zinc dust manufacturing industry in the United States, and now bid fair to drive the German product, the only competitor, from the market in this country completely. This unique industry will, within a year, according to officers of the fire clay company, which is the sole selling agent, be bringing $300,000 annually into Denver. Zinc dust is a most essential ingredient in the reduction of gold ores by the cyanide process. Every reduction plant using cyanidation must have it. Denver.—A country-wide search is being made for 15-year-old Joseph E. Hubbard of 32 Fowler street, Dorchester, Mass., who disappeared from his home on July 6, presumably to go West. The missing boy is an only child. He was deeply religious and since ten years of age evinced an overwhelming desire to go West to convert "the heathen tribes of Indians." No amount of persuasion could induce him to give up the idea. It has been discovered that he passed through Denver with a circus so it is presumed that by this time Willie needs a little conversion himself, beginning at the bath tub. Colorado Veterans' Rollcall. Denver.—Of the three hundred surviving Colorado veterans of the Civil War, as many as possibly can will meet in Denver Oct. 8th to attend the "Annual Roll Call" of the state association. Once every year, the survivors of that body of 5,000 who left Colorado in '65 to fight in the ranks of the federal army, meet to conduct the business of the association and to talk over the days of old. Year by year the meeting grows smaller and more white-haired. Last year only forty attended. This year there are one or two more who will be missing from the ranks, but while two veterans are left within call, the "roll call" will take place. The coming meeting will be the twenty-sixth since the foundation of the society. Governing Masons Meet. Denver.—The grand council of the select masters of the Masons, which met Monday, elected the following. Grand master, William D. Grissard, Pueblo; deputy grand master, Irvin O. Glazier, Greeley; conductor, Charles F. Painter, Telluride; treasurer, Arthur E. Jones, Denver; recorder, Ernest Le Neve Foster, Denver; chaplain, W. H. Woodward, Leadville: captain of the guard, Edward W. Whitley, Denver; conductor of the council, John W. Wingate, Durango; marshal, William A. Campbell, Colorado Springs; steward, George G. Slater, Denver. The grand lodge of the Ancient Order of the Free and Accepted Masons held their fiftieth anniversary services at the First Presbyterian church Tuesday. Thursday the grand chapter of the Royal Arch Masons meet. Friday the grand commandery of the Knights Templar hold their session. The women's auxiliary, known as the Order of the Eastern Star, will hold their annual meeting Friday and Saturday. Will Sink for Oil. Alamosa.—The necessary amount of stock has been subscribed and the financial means are forthcoming for the sinking of a big well in the gas belt for the discovery of oil. Much interest is being aroused and who knows but that one of these days the news shall go out over the country as the news went out from Beaumont, Texas, when the big wells went down there. Work is to begin soon. All is expectation. Excitement is liable to break out any moment after the work begins.

Evans, U. 8. N. (retired), at the first banquet of the newly organized Portland (Ore.) Press Club. ‘The United States civil service com- mission will hold examinations in Oc- tober to secure eligibles for vacancies in a variety of positions in the gov- ernment service. The salary of some of the positions is as high as $2,500 a year. One of the positions is that of foreman of the mine rescue station in the newly-organized Bureau of Mines Stations have already been organized at Pittsburg, Knoxville, Tenn.; McAl- ester, Okla., Seattle, Wash., and Ur- bana, Ill. Others are in contempla- tion and it is expected that at least one foreman will be required at each station for regular duty, Salaries of foremen at the various stations range from $1,080 to $1,500 a year. Appli- cants for this position will not be re- quired to appear for examination be- fore the commission. Their eligibility will be determined by physical ability, training and experience in mining work. SAASALLALALLALALALLASLANL LV LAVANSASAAN LA LAAANNALAAVADVS DADS!

The cry is “A dollar a day for life.” The national encampment is expected to take up the matter.

As the second city in America, Chicago is practically in a class by itself. New York far outstrips it, with 4,766,883, and Philadelphia, which is its nearest rival for the second honor this year, showed a population of 1,549,008. An attack has been begun in the Circuit Court at Cincinnati by Wil- Mam D. McKemy, as receiver of the grand lodge of Ohio of the Ancient Order of United Workmen, against the supreme lodge, a Texas corpora. tion. The action is to compel tho higher tribunal to make good its con- tract to pay guaranteed death claims for a total of $139,810.64. ‘The protest against the erection of the statue of General Robert BE.

At Niagara Falls, N. Y., Captain Klaus Larsen, in his little motor boat, the Ferro, Sunday made a successful trip from the foot of the cataract through the whirlpool rapids to within ‘a mile of Lewiston, a distance of four and one-half miles. He started from the Maid of the Mist dock and ran on a rock near the American shore. De- spite the battering af the whirlpool rapids, Larsen went through safely, but his boat was leaking badly at the finish and through the trip. Under the present status of the rail- road rate case there does not seem to bee any doubt that the issue of cap- italization and what is a fair return on capital invested in the railroads as public utilities will eventually get be- fore the Supreme Court in a definite form, or before the people in the form of new railroad legislation, It is the intention of the shippers to take these questions before the courts, pro- vided the commission grants the in- creased rates asked by the railroads. ‘The bond of sentiment that has welded together the hearts of the north and the south was never more im evidence than at the formal opening of the forty-fourth national encamp- ment of the Grand Army of the Re- public, It is probable that there may pever be another encampment held by the G.

STORM AND CALM. assessed of such nervousness hungering souls on excuse stuff on which they feed corpse and cynical grouchly appointed and unrecone- but people who accommodate on steadier lines, with a to keep an even course or rent and blurred vision of human beings in all of the men who dominate of political excitement in and the men who have been. They set out two years later, the people were sorely oplemnly promised the people conducted a ceaseless or within or without theirised work unaccomplished and dining into the vital need for the about to destroy. We were strenuous and profitless the defense of their assailant that is being stirred capable of doing things, labors without so much was the man of the house legislative body forging a mighty fine product of people at this remote day another mighty wave of natural political enemies are indignation, but half of being flails of his mighty war over again this endler that you need a little reposing which Democracy is that you, like the many were the surging waves ofatiens never sing their long for the old-time, and the cargo delivered, wher panic? SOME people are possessed of such nervous temperaments that they must constantly feed their hungering souls on excitement, of one form or another; and if the pungent stuff on which they feed is denied them, they lose interest in life, become morose and cynical grouch breeders and degenerate, sicken and pass away, disappointed and unreconciled hulks on humanity's stream of endless traffic. But people who accomplish the greatest amount of permanent good are built on steadier lines, with broader beam and deeper pit, and they are content to keep an even course and battle patiently on, whether the days are calm or rent and blurred with storm. Political parties are made up after the fashion of human beings in this respect, reflecting the temperamental qualities of the men who dominate them. We have had a plenty of political excitement in Colorado during the past two years, and the party and the men who have been responsible for it have not yet had enough of it. They set out two years ago to do great things, which, they told themselves, the people were sorely in need of; they marked out their own tasks and solemnly promised the people that they would fulfill them. For two years they conducted a ceaseless warfare upon all who opposed their ideas, whether within or without their party organization lines, and now, with their promised work unaccomplished, they are repeating the same old game of excitement and dining into the ears of the people the same noisy claims regarding the vital need for the defense of things which some soulless monster is about to destroy. We wonder if the people are not sick and tired of the strenuous and profitless struggle, for neither the needs of the people nor the defense of their assailed liberties form sufficient ground for all the excitement that is being stirred up about them. If a political party is capable of doing things, and promises to do them, it ought to accomplish its labors without so much everlasting noise and excitement. If John F. Shafroth was the man of the hour two years ago, with two sessions of a favorable legislative body forging his ideas into permanent shape, he ought to have a mighty fine product of finished goods to show to the tranquilly waiting people at this remote day. But instead he dashes into the foreground on another mighty wave of excitement, from the crest of which not only his natural political enemies are splattered and drenched with the foam of limitless indignation, but half of his own party is soaked and drubbed with the flying flails of his mighty wrath. Oh, don't it make you tired to hear and hear over again this endless song of the flood of iniquity? Don't you feel that you need a little repose; a little respite from the torrent of perennial warning which Democracy is dining into your ears? Don't it make you wish that you, like the many other brave hearts, were "asleep in the deep," where the surging waves of hypocrisy never roll, and the excitement-loving sentienels never sing their doleful notes of warning? Or, better still, don't you long for the old-time, sober Republican regime, when the saills are set and the cargo delivered, without ever a sign of death-stricken demoralization or panic? A BITTER B. M. C. we seem to be having their seem to the Grand United O appears to have been no ex n exchanges, the battle in struggle of prospective ning session, was the ma merative and legislative led by the political strug gregime of unfairness a ness, of which Grand Mast surgents were led by J. ALL the big meetings seem to be having their troubles this year, and the fifteenth biennial session of the Grand United Order of Odd Fellows, held at Baltimore last week, appears to have been no exception to the rule. According to Eastern exchanges, the battle over the control of the meeting, based upon the struggle of prospective candidates for the offices, and beginning at the opening session, was the most bitter the B. M. C. has ever witnessed. The deliberative and legislative work of the session appear to have been overshadowed by the political struggle for the offices, with the insurgents alleging a long regime of unfairness and clique rule on the part of the administration forces, of which Grand Master William L. Houston was the official head. The insurgents were led by J. C. Ashbury, editor of the Odd Fellow's Journal, John C. Dancy of North Carolina and Rev E. P. Jones of Mississippi, while the administration forces followed the lead of ex-Grand Master E. H. Morris of Chicago. There has been considerable complaint during the past two years, especially from Eastern and Western lodges and some from the South, that the political control of the Order was such as to allow a great number of lodges little voice in the affairs of the B. M. C., and to practically eliminate all but the members of a powerful political combination from the possibility of official honors. The meeting was preceeded by the publication of several "open letters" to the delegates, and the airing of much of the Order's troubles in the public press. Nevertheless Grand Master Houston seems to have adopted his own way of deciding knotty questions and close votes, and aided by the popularity and diplomacy of ex-Grand Master Morris, succeeded in defeating the changes so strenuously proposed and fought for by the insurgents, who were at times thought to have a majority of the delegates on their side. The G. U. O. of O. F. is too big, too old and too prosperous an Order to have serious political dissensions racking its biennial meetings, and an honest application of the principles of the Order ought to restrain the high officials and prominent delegates from following any course, either at the B. M. C., or in their respective official capacities, which will cause a steady growth of dissatisfaction among any great number of lodges, however remote their locations. Our benevolent Orders comprise one of the creditable assets of the race, and their peaceful and honorable conduct is of interest to everybody. The way to avoid dissension in any and all of our societies is to make the work of the Order or society more important than its political control and to apply its principles honestly to every member. The grand officers finally elected at Baltimore were as follows: E. H. Morris of Chicago, Grand Master; Henry L. Johnson of Atlanta, D. G. M.; Julius C. Johnson of Baltimore, G. T.; James Needham of Philadelphia, G. S. H. Slaughter was declared elected over J. C. Asbury for editor of the Odd Fellows' Journal. Atlanta, Ga., was chosen the next meeting place, regardless of the fact that they have a Jim Crow fraternal order law down there. KEEPING THE CLOSET CLEAN One Solution of This Problem That Confronts Many Is to Paint It White. Usually there are about the house closets so dark that except at the yearly or semi-yearly housecleaning it is impossible to tell whether or not they are dirty. They are breeders of disease, even in the best-managed households, for no maid and few mistresses will crawl into the dark hole under the stairs or back in the kitchen after perfectly invisible dust. One solution of the problem is to paint these closets white, ceiling, floor and walls. It is easy enough to see dirt then, and the other and more useful contents of the closet as well. If one can keep the hall closet clean, and find the family overshoe on sight, simply by painting the closet white, then, by all means, let us hasten to the paintshop and remove the obsolete and horrible wall paper that usually incumbers these germ hotels. If the closet is still dark after this treatment, try cleaning with the aid of the electric flashlight. There is no danger of fire, and corners can be closely investigated. All of which is an advantage to the housewife who does not love dirt and disorder. But always, when cleaning day comes, consider first the closets, and most important of all of these is the sloping, dark, neglected closet under the stairs. Rice Cutlets. Two eggs, one-quarter pound of rice, one tablespoonful of grated cheese, two ounces of any kind of nut food, one-half cupful of brown bread crumbs, one tablespoonful of tomato sauce, a few sprigs of parsley, pepper and salt. Wash and put the rice in one pint of boiling water; boil rapidly until rice is tender and water absorbed; turn on a sieve, add one-half teaspoonful of salt when half cooked. Stew the nut food in a gill of water for ten minutes, add the rice and the cheese, seasoning, then the yolks of the two eggs, well beaten. Stir the mixture thoroughly until set, then turn on a dish and let the whole cool. When cold form into cutlet shapes, dip each into white of egg, and roll in fine bread crumbs. Fry in smoking hot fat and serve hot. These two recipes are fairly rich in body building elements and will be found to be excellent meat substitutes and greatly relished now that meat prices are ever soaring. Filler for Floors. When you are having your floor stained here is a good filler, recommended by a paint man, to cover up the cracks in a carpetless floor. It nothing more nor less than newspaper and mucilage. Soak the newspaper in warm water until it is reduced, by tearing and squeezing, to a mere pulp; mix this pulp with enough mucilage to give it consistency and stuff the cracks with it by means of a pointed stick, smoothing them off carefully so as to avoid lumps. This will do just as well as an expensive and troublesome putty filler. Chicken Salad. An attractive way of serving chicken salad is to place it in a ring of ham jelly. Two cupfuls of the salad should be poured in the ring of jelly after it is placed on a platter. To make the dish attractive the jelly should rest on lettuce or watercress. For the ham jelly whip one-half pint of thick cream until stiff, stir in a cupful of aspic jelly, cool a little, and add a jar of potted ham. By adding a few drops of fruit sirup it will make the jelly pink. Mock Roast. One cup of beans, boiled and mashed; one cup of peas, boiled and mashed; one cup of finely chopped peanuts or pecans, one cup of dry bread crumbs. Moisten the bread crumbs with water and mix with the mashed peas, beans, and nuts. Season with salt, pepper and onion juice. Put into a buttered baking dish, cover with a cup of rich cream and bake about an hour and a half. This is very healthful and a fine substitute for meat. Apple Dessert. Take a large apple cut in half, not lengthwise. Remove the core and all the inside of the apple, leaving just the shell thick enough to serve the salad in. Slice some apples very thin, cut dates in small pieces and break the nut meats. Mix all together and fill the apple shell with this salad. Place on a dessert dish, cover the top with whipped cream and sprinkle with ground nuts. Put a walnut meat in the center. Uncooked Ripe Tomato Relish Uncooked Ripe Tomato Ketchup One-half peck of ripe tomatoes, peel, cut in small squares, drain two hours; add one cupful of grated horseradish, one cupful yellow mustard seed, two tablespoonfuls of salt, two tablespoonfuls of celery seed, two cupfuls of sugar, one tablespoonful of black pepper, two red peppers cut fine, two tablespoonfuls of cinnamon, ground, one quart of cider vinegar; bottle cold and seal. Do not heat or cook any of it. Pineapple Punch. Doll a pound of sugar and a quart of water for five minutes; strain, add to it the juice of one lemon and half pint of grated pineapple; stir and strain again; add sufficient amount of cracked ice to make it palatable, and add half a pint of finely picked pineapple and a few raspberries may also be added. 1916 Arapahoe St., Denver MUSIC VOCAL-PIANO-ORGAN Voice Culture a Specialty (Voice -- Song -- Speech) Madam Seiler and Emil Behnke's Methods TERMS MODERATE Apply Hewetson-Watson 2631 Humboldt St. Phone York 2341 Denver Michaelson's.

Sunday, September 25: 11 a. m., sermon by the pastor; subject, "Shouting in the Camp." 3 p. m., $1,000 rally by congregation and friends. 8 p. m., report of the rally in details. We desire to request our friends, visitors and persons to appear on the program for the rally to please report promptly at 3 o'clock as we are under obligation to begin at that time. A cordial invitation is extended to all the ministers of the colored churches with their congregations. Due credit will be publicly given to all contributors for this effort. Last Saturday evening at 6 o'clock Mr. J. F. Carter and Miss Ethel Scott were happily united in the bonds of matrimony in the presence of a few friends at the bride's residence, 2551 Clarkson, by Rev. J. A. Thos-Hazell. We wish the newly married couple God's chosen favor in their undertaking. Last Sabbath Mr. J. 'D. Rice preached us an excellent sermon. At the close of the service Madames Laura Hill, Ida Purcell and Louis Speers applied for membership. Their examination on religious experience and financial ability to contribute to the People's church having been sustained by the session, these ladies will be publicly received at the next communion service October 2. the pastor and Elder Dr. Crosthwait attended the fall meeting of Presbytery last Tuesday at Golden. The elder wonderfully impressed the Presbytery. The stand he took for the race in toto and specially for the church to which he now belongs is sure to result in mutual good for all concernel. The pastor's report on the Freedmen's work was received with favorable comment. Colored Presbyterians raised for all purposes among themselves last year $63,459. The church at large contributed to this board $207,799 43, being an increase of $22,285.85 over the previous year. Nineteen churches of Denver Presbytery were tardy in their contributions to this work last year. In view of this, the chairman, Rev. Thos-Hazell, included some radical recommendations in his report to the executive commission of Presbytery which were adopted without amendment. SCOTTS CHAPEL NOTES. The Rev. W. R. Stephens of Colorado Springs will preach Sunday morning and hold the second quarterly conference. The Rev. Stephens is an eloquent preacher and a financier of the first order. The Rev. W. C. Williams, pastor of Campbells A. M. E. church, will deliver the communion sermon Sunday afternoon. The sister churches are invited to hear him on this occasion. The pastor, the Rev. J. N. Wallace, preached the rally sermon for the People's M. E. church last Sunday at the Springs. The church rolled up $1., 353.72. The mortgage on the church edifice and the parsonage will be paid when $200 more are raised. This is a splendid record when the fact is known that the pastor just left the walls of Gammon Theological Seminary last spring. Mrs. Sallie A. Ramsey preached a soul-stirring sermon last Sunday morning. The revival is at its great- est heat. Already fourteen have been reclaimed and converted. The meetings will close Sunday night. We invite our friends who have helped us so nobly in this series of meetings to be sure and be out Sunday night as Sister Ramsey will deliver her farewell sermon. Mrs. Frances E. Williams, who continues ill at the Mercy hospital, is much improved. She will soon be at her post of duty. Mrs. Anna Ledbetter has been ill at her home on Colfax. She is much improved at this writing. After Sunday all regular meetings of the week will assume their normality. We urge the officers to make a fun report Saturday night to the second quarterly conference. Mr. J. D. Rice will leave for South Atlanta, Ga., about the first of October where he will enter Gammon seminary for his second year's work. Mr. Rice has served several of the city churches very efficiently. We wish him much success during his stay at Gammon. Mrs. Martha Anderson will leave for Kansas City next week. Sister Anderson has been in our city for the past year. The Epworth League, under the able readership of Mr. G. E. Townsend, has been rendering splendid service every Sunday evening by conducting the prayer service. Mrs. Anna Bobo Dawson is in our city looking after her business interests and also circulating among friends. She looks the very picture of health. She left the Reverend behind to look after his church work. She is being initiated into the grand work of the parsonage. A big storm blew over their way the first night they were in their home in Alma, Kas., and many good things were left in its devastating trail which made the soul of the groom happy. Announcements will be made soon of a very comical drama being gotten up by the young people of the church for the benefit of the piano committee. We would like to give them a royal crowd on this occasion. We ask our friends to assist us in raising a goodly sum for the services of our faithful evangelist who has labored so hard to reach the unsaved in Denver. We thank you in advance for any amount that you will give us. The Junior League will resume its Sunday afternoon meetings after the termination of the revival. We invite the old members to come out and bring some new ones. Refreshments will be served. The Ladies' Aid society will meet next Thursday evening at the parsonage for the election of officers. We invite all members and friends to be present. Plans for the next six months' work will be considered at this meeting. APPOINTMENTS.

We, "The Sir Knights of Hiram Commandery No. 20," with a deep feeling of the death and loss of our beloved Brother and Esteemed Sir Knight, I. G Gilmore, desire to record this testimonial to his memory. "Whereas, it has pleased the Almighty God to call from labor to reward, our Beloved Sir Knight and friend, I. G. Gilmore, and one of our most esteemed friends and citizens, whose life was of the highest type of manhood; and Whereas, the Commandery has sustained the loss of a loyal citizen and Christian gentleman; therefore be it Resolved, "That the members of Hiram Commandery No. 20, extend their sincere sympathy to the bereaved family, in the loss of a beloved husband, and a kind and indulgent father. So we ask the blessings of Almighty God for the protection of the bereaved family, especially for the wife and daughters. And we ask that copies of this resolution be recorded in our minutes; one to the family of the be reaved, and one to the public press. The Statesman, The Colorado Statesman and The Independent. T. J. BOYCE, BASIL HILL, H. S. SMITH, E. L. FAULKNER, L. C. CONNELL, The Committee. FINANCIAL RESOURCES TO SUP PORT NEGRO BUSINESS. The financial resources of Shorter's Chapel is greater than all the gross Negro business in Denver. A Negro business that could do a business of $6,746.45 per year, would furnish employment to a dozen people. Why not take the financial figures of Shorter's Chapel for 1910, and figure that if our people will patronize one church to that amount all the patrons of the various Negro churches ought to patronize a department store to the amount of $20,000 per year, as the amount spent for the necessities of life are greater than their contributions to a church. The financial figures of Shorter's Chapel for 1910 furnish a splendid basis for figuring on the resources of Negroes to support Negro enterprises. We will say that Shorter's congregation of 500 persons would average in wages $25 per month, a total of $12,500 per month, and for twelve months of the year $150,000.00, out of this one congregation. Their financial report shows a very healthy business prospect for what other enterprises would get after the balance left from their salaries, which is a considerable amount. After deducting from the annual earnings of $150,000.00 their contributions to Shorter's Chapel, $6,746.45 there would be left a balance of $143,253.55, for a business basis for some department store to figure on, from that one congregation; and there are eleven Negro churches in Denver. To say that Negroes have no financial resources to support Negro business is a mistake, since the financial figures of Shorter's close incorporation which does not furnish employment to or return more than 10 per cent. back to its patrons. The Negroes of Denver ought to be convinced from Shorter's Annual Report that a business conducted for the purpose of furnishing employment and commercial exchange would be as prosperous as one which only promises a future, and the support of two or three people. I am not opposed to the churches or the intelligent preacher, but I do think that these times call for a broader view of Christianity. O. T. JACKSON. Modern furnished rooms for rent Phone Main 6830.

She Took No Chances A happily wedded matron is the principal of an odd incident, which one of her "dear" friends relates. Before the matron's engagement to her present husband was announced, she met her "dear" friend on the street. The new matron was hurrying toward one of the large jewelry stores of the city. "John gave me an engagement ring," she explained, without a shadow of embarrassment, "and I am going down to see how much it cost. You see, I got the jeweler's name off the box," and she hurried on. The same friend said that another bit of information the matron got was the commercial standing of the prospective husband, which she secured by paying for a special report from a commercial agency. Confusing. Craig Biddle, at a dinner in Newport, was describing the changing odds on the Jeffries-Johnson fight at Reno. "Eight to four and a halt on Jeffries—nine to six the other way about—three to one and a quarter—it's rather confusing, isn't it?" he said. "In fact, it's almost as confusing as the two girls' talk about a secret. "Mary,' said the first girl, 'told me that you had told her that secret I told you not to tell her." "The nasty thing,' said the other girl. 'I told her not to tell you I told her." "Well,' said the first girl, 'I told her I wouldn't tell you she told me—so don't tell her I did." ribute to Hold-Up Artist "The train doesn't stop at Crimson Gulch any more." "No," replied Three-Finger Sam. "I'm afraid the town doesn't get much respect from the railroad." "Respect! Why, that railroad is clean terrified.

"The Memory Lingers" Postum Cereal Co., Ltd. Battle Creek, Mich. COLORADO LEGISLATIVE DOINGS No Quorum in Senate. The members of the senate did not even take the trouble to come up and make a quorum Friday, while the house adjourned in the afternoon without going into committee of the whole. Will Fight Primary Bill. The platform leaders in the house promise a fight against the primary bill with the convention feature as recommended to the Democratic senatorial caucus by Senators Adams, McCue, Scott and Tobin. The caucus has agreed to the name of the convention nominee going on the primary ballot with the words, "convention noninee," after it, although no party designation is to be printed with these words. In that event conference committee will have to be appointed. Campaign Expense Law Test. Denver.—The constitutionality of the Weiser law, regulating campaign expenses, and enacted by the regular session of the Seventeenth general assembly, will be tested in an original proceeding brought before the supreme court. Both the state auditor and the treasurer will be presented with a formal demand for the money due the Democratic organization. The state will not pay the money. That has been attended to through an understanding reached by party managers and state officials. Suit will be brought for about $31,000 due the state chairman of the Democratic committee, and the auditor and treasurer will be joined as defendants in the suit. They will justify their refusal to pay the funds by setting up the claim that the act is unconstitutional. This is what all parties want. The supreme court will be asked to assume original jurisdiction on the ground that it would be too late for a final adjudication of the merits of the suit were it filed in the district court. To Investigate Dealers' Associations. Investigation of methods in the cement industry in raising the price of Portland cement in Colorado until, as Representative Elbert Greenman of Boulder claims, it will clear up a cool million as "velvet," is the object of a joint memorial passed by the house of representatives Friday. The memorial must go to the senate. It requests the United States attorney for this district to probe the alleged combine and prosecute under federal laws. While Greenman was speaking upon his resolution Speaker Harry Lubers took occasion to condemn the grocery and meat dealers' association of the state, which, he says, sends out orders as to what prices shall be charged on foodstuffs to the grocers of the state every Monday morning. Greenman promised Lubers that he would support any memorial or resolution asking the attorney general to investigate affairs in the grocery trade if the latter will prepare and introduce one. The cement memorial passed with the vote of all members except Teller of Weld, a groceryman, who protested against the charges that a grocery combine existed. He said he knew of no such combine. Greenman urged the passage of the cement memorial on the grounds that it is a tax upon the citizens of the state through their public improvements and roads, as well as being an unfair and illegal restraint of trade. To Fix Up Their Political Fences. There is a strong movement, emanating from the senate, to adjourn the extra session of the legislature next Saturday or the following Monday, after passing the direct primary and registration bills. A general restlessness is prevalent on the part of the members of the legislature to get back to their homes for the remaining conventions and fall campaigns. On every side they are urging adjournment after the passage of the direct primary and the registration bills. "We have been here too long now," said one of the machine leaders, "and the fall campaigns require the presence of members to carry on their fight for the tickets." Some of the platform senators, because of pressing business affairs, want to adjourn also. The house may not agree, however, to such a program. Representative H. A. Hicks of Gilpin, and his co-workers, are opposed to any adjournment until all the pledges of the platform have been enacted into law. The senate cannot adjourn for more than three days without the house doing likewise and the platform members of that body intend to make a fight. The senate, by refusing to pass any bills, it is said in the house, will lay itself open to censure. It is pointed out that if the senate wished to do so it could pass all the platform measures almost as rapidly as it could the direct primary and registration. It would only be a matter of a day or two difference. To perfect the merger of the Denver, Greeley & Fort Collins Railway company and the Greeley and Northern Railway and Utility company, a meeting of the board of directors of the newly organized Denver, Greeley & Northwestern company will be held in Denver September 20. WARNING THAT WAS FAMILIAR Grocer Man Used Formula That Made Little Harry Long to Be Far Away. Mrs. Jones' favorite warning to her young progeny, when they were in mischief was that she would tend to them in a minute. "Tending" was accomplished by applying her open hand where it would do most good. When Harry was four years old he was sent for the first time round the corner to the grocery. In a few minutes he came trotting soberly back with the nickel still in his hand, but no bag of onions. "What's the matter?" asked his mother. "I'm 'fraid of the man,' he said," solemnly. "Oh, he won't hurt you," reassured Mrs. Jones. "Run along and bring the onions. I'm in a hurry for them." A second time Harry disappeared round the corner, and a second time returned without his purchase. "I'm 'fraid of the grocer man," he explained, as before. "Well, what makes you afraid of him?" demanded his mother, impatiently. "Why," answered the little fellow, "bofe times when I goed in, he looked at me, an' said, 'I'll tend to you in a minute.'"—Youth's Companion. Remembering Each Other. He sat on the sand at Atlantic City in a bathing suit. About ten feet away she was drawing pictures in the sand with a small brown forefinger. He noticed her complexion, her curves and the glint of gold in her hair. He wanted to speak, and yet—Finally he summoned courage and walked over to her. "Didn't I talk with you for about five minutes two summers ago?" he asked. "Two years ago," she said dreamily. "Two years ago—let me see—did I wear blue silk stockings?" Beware the Dog! A family moved from the city to a suburban locality and were told that they should get a watchdog to guard the premises at night. So they bought the largest dog that was for sale in the kennels of a neighboring dog fancier, who was a German. Shortly afterward the house was entered by burglars, who made a good haul, while the big dog slept. The man went to the dog fancier and told him about it. "Vell, vat you need now," said the dog merchant, "is a leedle dog to vake up the big dog."—Everybody's. She Was a Big Fighter. Mrs. Benham—Do you remember when I had my coming out?

It Was the Other Way. "Mr. Jones," said the senior partner in the wholesale dry goods house to the drummer who stood before him in the private office, "you have been with us for the past ten years." "Yes, sir." "And you ought to know the rules of the house. One of them is that no man of ours shall take a side line." "But I have none, sir." "But you have lately got married." "Yes; but can you call that a side line, Mr. Jones?" "Technically, it may not be." "Technically, it may not be. "You needn't fear that having a wife is going to bring me in off a trip any sooner."

I had the best physicians but they all failed to help me. For five weeks I was as helpless as a baby. My back throbbed as if it would break and the kidney secretions were in terrible condition. The doctors held out no hope and I was resigned to my fate. At this critical For five weeks I was as helpless as a baby. My back throbbed as if it would break and the kidney secretions were in terrible condition. The doctors held out no hope and I was resigned to my fate.

Taken at His Word "Since you are so busy today," said the urbane journalist, "will you kindly tell me when and where I can meet you for an interview?" "Go to blazes!" exclaimed the irate politician. "Thanks, I'll consider it an appointment." Pierp's Appetite. J. P. Morgan, Sr., was always a good trencherman in his youth and he has as good an appetite today as he ever had, not only for corned beef and cabbage—his favorite dish—but for other foods. If the Morgan, who dazzled the Teutons with his mathematics when he was a German university post-graduate student, had accepted the chair of mathematics offered to him by Heidelberg, instead of his Yankee corned beef and cabbage it might have been frankfurters and sauerkraut—New York Press. Someone Might Get Hurt. Pietro had drifted to Florida and was working with a gang at railroad construction. He had been told to beware of rattlesnakes, but assured that they would always give the warning rattle before striking. One hot day he was eating his noon luncheon on a pine log when he saw a big rattler colled a few feet in front of him. He eyed the serpent and began to lift his legs over the log. He had barely got them out of the way when the snake's fangs hit the bark beneath him. "Son of a guna!" yelled Pietro. "Why you no ringa da bell?"—Everybody's Magazine. PUZZLED Hard Work, Sometimes, to Raise Children. Children's taste is oftimes more accurate, in selecting the right kind of food to fit the body, than that of adults. Nature works more accurately through the children. A Brooklyn lady says: "Our little boy had long been troubled with weak digestion. We could never persuade him to take more than one taste of any kind of cereal food. He was a weak little chap and we were puzzled to know what to feed him on. "One lucky day we tried Grape Nuts. Well, you never saw a child eat with such a relish, and it did me good to see him. From that day on it seemed as though we could almost see him grow. He would eat Grape Nuts for breakfast and supper, and I think he would have liked the food for dinner. "The difference in his appearance is something wonderful. "My husband had never fancied cereal foods of any kind, but he became very fond of Grape-Nuts and has been much improved in health since using it. "We are now a healthy family, and naturally believe in Grape-Nuts. "A friend has two children who were formerly afflicted with rickets. I was satisfied that the disease was caused by lack of proper nourishment. They showed it. So I urged her to use Grape-Nuts as an experiment and the result was almost magical. result was taken. "They continued the food and today both children are well and strong as any children in this city, and, of course, my friend is a firm believer in Grape-Nuts for she has the evidence before her eyes every day." before the end of the story.

NEAR-INSURGENCY IN EVIDENCE, THOUGH TONED DOWN BY BODY OF TICKET. STEPHEN FOR GOVERNOR PLATFORM TAKES STAND FOR PROGRESSIVE STATE AND NATIONAL MEASURES. Supreme Court Justice—James E. Garrigues, Weld. Governor—John B. Stephen of El Paso. Lieutenant Governor — James H. Painter of Phillips. Secretary of State—John E. Ramer of Larimer. Auditor—Thomas L. Jamison of Las Animas. Attorney General—Benjamin Griffith of Mesa. Treasurer—James E. Collier of Pueblo. Superintendent of Public Instruction—Mrs. Helen M. Wixson of Denver. Railroad Commissioner—Sheridan S. Kendall of Denver. Regents of State University—Anna Wolcott of Denver; W. J. King of Saguache. Congressman-at-Large—Isaac N. Stevens of Pueblo. State Chairman—Jesse F. McDonald of Lake. Colorado Springs.—Insurgency entered the Republican party of Colorado as represented in its state convention here and a ticket headed by State Senator John B. Stephen of this county, a railroad engineer, a blunt, forceful, straightforward Republican, was placed in the field on a platform that submits the paramount issue of the initiative and referendum amendment to the people without recommendation. In all other respects the platform is "stalwart," modeled in a large measure upon that of Ohio in reference to national affairs, and taking a decided stand for progressive state measures. The convention decreed that the Democratic party with Governor Shafroth at its head should be challenged on a battleground largely of its own choosing. Senator Stephen was placed at the head of the ticket because he is somewhat radical in his views, has an unquestioned following among railroad wage earners and has stood for the initiative and referendum principle ever since it was an issue in the state. His nomination was brought about by that division in the party that believes advantages should be taken of the Insurgent wave that is passing over the country and that Stephen is the man of all Republicans at this time to "blanket" Shafroth in his endeavors. 42 Killed in Wreck. Bluffton, Ind.—Forty-two persons were killed in an interurban trolley wreck between Bluffton and Fort Wayne at noon Wednesday. At 11:56, if the train left on schedule, a regular train consisting of one car left Bluffton for Fort Wayne. At practically the same hour a single motor car left Fort Wayne for Bluffton, empty, to pick up a load of passengers to bring back to Fort Wayne for the county fair at Fort Wayne. Some one made a mistake. At Kingsland, eighteen miles south of Fort Wayne, the cars met. Those who were in the accident can tell little of what actually occurred. In the extra car there were no passengers. In the regular local were probably fifty-five or sixty people. Of these few escaped death or injury. Congressman Mondell Very Ill. Sheridan, Wyo.—Frank W. Mondell, Wyoming, sole representative in the National Congress, lies seriously ill at his home in Newcastle, and reports state that his condition is growing worse. He was in attendance at the Rawlins Republican state convention and after returning home suffered a nervous breakdown. He is president of the Dry Farming congress, convening in Spokane Oct. 6, and will be unable to attend it as the doctors state he will be unable to be up before two months, at least. Toad Stools Kill Four. Orange, N. J.—As a result of eating toad stools in mistake for mushrooms, two are dead and two dying here. Senator Elkins Seriously III. Wheeling—Senator Stephen B. Elkins is confined to his room at "Elkins" in a serious condition, caused by worry. Denver People Injured in Wreck. Lima, O.—Mrs. S. Stolley and her two children of Denver were internally injured Wednesday when a Chicago & Erie railroad train, east-bount was wrecked near Conant, nine miles west of here, killing an aged woman and injuring twenty-five people. Ublan Breaks Record. Allentown, Pa.—Uhlan, the champion trotter Wednesday clipped three-fourths of a second off the world's record. He made a mile in 2:05½. WAY TO MAKE MOCHA TART Foundation Can Be Made of Either a Delicate Layer Cake or Small Ones. Make for the foundation either a delicate layer cake or small cakes. The filling may be made either one or two ways. For the first, whip cream to a stiff froth, sweeten to taste, then whip in enough extract of coffee to flavor and make as dark as desired. It will require only a little, as too much liquefies the cream. Spread between the layers and pile up on top in pyramid shape. If desired, a little of the mocha can be used in the layers. For the second filling, boil one cup of sugar and one-half cup black coffee together until the sirup will thread. Wash one cupful of butter in cold water to remove all the salt, then put in a piece of cheese cloth and pat until the moisture is dried out. Beat until creamy, adding slowly the beaten yolk of one egg and the sirup. Spread this filling between layers of one large cake or small cakes; or if preferred, pipe it over the tops of small cakes. Che home To make a cup of coffee almost as nourishing as a meal stir into it an egg well beaten. First beat the egg in the cup, add a little cream and then the sugar, and lastly the coffee poured in gradually. When adding the coffee, beat constantly with a small egg beater. No household can afford to be without a bountiful supply of waxed paper. If bought in quantity it is much cheaper and is always in readiness when wanted. Among its various uses it makes an excellent cover for borrowed books, as it does not tear so easily as other papers and the glaze keeps it from soiling so soon. This paper is better than a tablecloth to turn out hot cakes upon, and if bread, cake or sandwiches are wrapped in it they keep fresh much longer when prepared for picnics. It should also be used to wrap deviled eggs, ham or other picnic foods that are greasy or soft. One woman even makes a firm cornucopia of it to hold pickles or preserves. Froth Your Chocolate. All cooking teachers recommend the frothing of chocolate. It should be beaten with a patent egg beater before sending it to the table, whether whipped cream is to be served with it or not. An English chocolate pot is sure to be provided with its long paddle whose handle goes through the lid of the pot. As each cupful is served the paddle is turned briskly two or three times before the chocolate is poured off, the process being known over there as "muddling." Dark Cake. The following recipe is for a dark cake, which makes either one large cake or two small ones: Two cupfuls of light brown sugar, one-half cupful of dark molasses, two cupfuls of sour milk, one-half cupful of butter or oleomargarine, four cupfuls of flour, two teaspoonfuls of soda, one teaspoonful of cloves or allspice, one and one-half cupfuls of raisins. By adding more fruit will make a fruit cake. Butter Thins Fine and keep well. Three cups of flour, one cup butter, one-half tea-spoon soda, all rubbed together. In another dish have three eggs, two cups of granulated sugar, one tea-spoon vanilla (or any flavor desired). Mix with flour sufficient to roll. Roll thin and bake in quick oven, using care not to burn on bottom. Cut in any desired shape. Short Sheets. If you have trouble with your sheets pulling from the foot of brass beds or iron ones, sew three buttons on the foot of mattress and make strong buttonholes in lower hem of sheets to correspond with buttons, and button down, and you will have no trouble with them pulling up at foot. Turnip Cups With Peas. Pare white turnips of medium size, scoop out hollows to form cups, and cook in an uncovered kettle until white and transparent. Place a small piece of butter in each cup and sprinkle with parsley, salt and pepper. Fill the cups with cooked green peas. Harleguin Fudge. Use either the rule for plain fudge or delicious fudge, and when the mixture has been beaten until creamy pour over seeded raisins, dried currants and chopped pecans, mixed well together and spread thickly on bottom of pan. Specks on Varnish. When one finds white spots on varnished table, wet piece of soft flannel in spirits camphor and rub over the spot, and, presto! it's gone. Despair and Despondency No one but a woman can tell the story of the suffering, the despair, and the despondency endured by women who carry a daily burden of ill-health and pain because of disorders and derangements of the delicate and important organs that are distinctly feminine.

The two flouances on skirt are trimmed with larger appliques. The fullness of skirt is drawn in above the flouences with a band of very wide ribbon arranged in a large bow at left side of front. Hat of fancy straw trimmed with ribbon. A Materials required: 8 yards muslin 80 inches wide, lace appliques according to size, 2 yards lace, 3 yards ribbon. Shade and Material Has Entirely Captured the Fancy of Devotees of Fashion. Black satin has certainly captivated Fashion! First, with the tailored suit with long, graceful lines; then with the Paquin scarf or mantle, and now with the chic little chapeau, says the Philadelphia Press. While this latest millinery creation is a forerunner of autumn modes, women like it so much that they have not delayed a minute to wear it. When a woman called it "simply ideal" the other day she certainly hit the mark, as it is ideal for almost any occasion. It is a creation, between a mushroom with high dome crown and tiny brim—and a poke bonnet. Fashioned in a severe style, with soft folds of satin around the crown and small bow or rosettes at the side. And a dainty frill of white or ecu valenciennes must edge the brim inside to give the necessary softness to the face. Truly a picturesque hat, yet practical, so much so that a woman can take one "as the only hat" for a week-end trip—quite appropriate to wear with a tailored suit, ideal combination with a lingerie dress, and will be charming for evening. One of these hats recently seen in London was simply trimmed with two ostrich plumes—one at either side of the front and standing perfectly straight. Parisiennes are very enthusiastic about black satin—and is it any wonder when such modes have been designed for their pleasure and to enhance their beauty? Newest lace vell is a charming combination of black and white. This not only signifies the vogue of this delightful color combination, but provides a most charming vell for blonde or brunette. The net or mesh part is of white, while the chantilly designs are black. Natural color lace vells are new, too. These are for women who prefer things to match, and who wear natural color straw hats with pongee suits or frocks. To Make Stockings Last. In order to make her new stockings last beyond their time, one clever woman rubs paraffine on the heels and toes before putting the stockings on. They wear wonderfully under this treatment. Another woman, who considers this method uncomfortable (though, really, it is not so), runs a stocking darner into her new hosiery and darns it round and round at heel and toe with fine darning cotton. Done once, it never seems to be needed again, and the stockings last practically forever. To restore the faded color of the child's fine blue silk stockings, dip them after washing into hot water in which is dissolved a little (not too much) common bluing and several small lumps of alum. Those which have faded to nearly white can be simply colored in this way to do service as long as they will wear. n. l. e eft Dainty Dress—Cream delaine with a mauve ring embroidered on it is selected for our dainty design which though drawn with a hat, would be so useful for semi-evening wear. The skirt is trimmed with a deep lace band edged at the foot with mauve silk about $3\frac{1}{2}$ inches deep scalloped at the top, which also is edged with silk; the material is gathered here and at the waist. The bodice has an eefective lace trimming edged with silk; the opening at front is filled with delaine, and the sleeves are set to silk bands. Hat of coarse cream straw, trimmed with mauve bows. Materials required: 3 yards delaine 42 inches wide, 4 yards lace 20 inches wide, $2\frac{1}{2}$ yards silk 22 inches wide. Some Ideas That It Will Be Well to Keep Always in the Memory. Dark red linen makes a girlish dress that can be worn with a coat or lingerie waist. The material launders nicely. Some walking suits are trimmed with pompadour ribbon on the collar narrow revers, cuffs and belt, the ribbon matching the stripe of the material. When altering a blouse for any reason it is a great mistake to move the shoulder seam to the front. A far better plan is that of dropping 1 backward instead of forward. Vanity bags for dancing parties are most attractively made of dainty ribbon, in the form of a tiny bag, which holds powder and puff ball, while the bottom on the outside has a mirror held in place by a shirred piece or ribbon, after first being glued to the rib-covered cardboard, which form, the inside of the bag. SUNSHINE A summer gown of violet batiste o this sort might be fashioned from one of the many lovely robes now on sale at small cost. The embroidery is, o course, in same color, but the lace used is white. Finish the costum with a white Neapolitan hat, loade with double viollets. The latest combination of materia is figured foulard and plain satin in the predominating shade of the silk The satin is used for the gown itself and the foulard in a deep hem effect or as underskirt, for a tunic. The foulard also forms the undersleeve and boleros of the new semi-empir costumes. They're everywhere where people want the most for their money—most in service—most in heat and least in fuel cost—do not confuse them with the multitude of Oak Heaters that are minus any known origin—There's only one kind of "Estate Oak Heater" the prefix is always the same—spelled "E-S-T The Geo.
