THE COLORADO STATESMAN THE JOURNAL OF THE WEST. LABOR SHALL BE FREE RACE COUNTRY PARTY RACES AND POLITICS THE THIRD ARTICLE IN THE SERIES CALLED "THE MAN FATHEST DOWN" BY BOOKER WASHINGTON. VOL. XVII. RACES A THE THIRD ARTICLE IN MAN FATHEST DOWN" B In Prague, the capital of Bohemia, I came in contact for the first time with the advance guard, if I may use the expression, of a new race, the Slavs. I say new race, because, although the Slavic peoples claim an antiquity as great as that of any other race in Europe, the masses of the race seem just now emerging from a condition of life more primitive than that of almost any other people in Europe. Many little things, not only what I saw with my own eyes, but what I heard from others, gave me the impression, as I traveled southward that I was entering into a country where the masses of the people lived a simpler and more primitive existence than any I had seen elsewhere in Europe. I remember, for one thing, that I was one day startled to see, in the neighborhood of the mining regions of Bohemia, a half-dozen women engaged in loading a coal barge—shoveling the coal into wheelbarrows and wheeling them along a narrow plank from the wharf to the ship alongside. I was impressed, again, by the fact that several of the peoples of the Austrain Empire—the Moravians and Ruthenians are an illustration—still preserves their old tribal names. Certain other of these peoples still keep not only the tribal names, but many of the old tribal customs. Among most of the Slavic peoples, for example, custom still gives to the marriage ceremony the character of barter sale. In fact, I found that in one of the large provincial towns in Eastern Hungary the old "matrimonial fairs" are still kept up. On a certain day in each year hundreds of marriageable young women are brought down to this fair, and usually a lawyer sits out under a tree near by prepared to draw up the marriage contract. In some cases as many as forty marriages are arranged in this way in a single day. Divided into petty kingdoms or provinces, each speaking a separate language, living for the most part in the country districts, and held in some sort of political and economic subjection, sometimes, by the descendants of foreign conquerors, and sometimes, as in the case of the Poles, by the nobility of their own race, the masses of the Slavic peoples in Southern Europe have lived for centuries out of touch with the world. Compared, therefore, with the peoples of western Europe, who are living in the centers of modern life and progress the Slavic peoples are just now on the horizon. In the course of my travels through Austria and Hungary I think I met, at one time or another representatives of nearly every branch of the Slavic race in the Empire. In Bohemia I became acquainted, as I have said, with the most progressive portion of the race, the Czechs. In Galicia I saw something of the life of the Polish people, both in the towns and in the country districts. Again, in Budapest and Vienna I learned something of the condition of the laboring and peasant classes, among whom the Slavic peoples are usually in majority. At Fiume, the port of Hungary from which forty thousand emigrants sail every year for the United States, I met and talked with Dalmatians, Croatians, Slovenes, and Ruthenians, and Serbs—representatives, in fact, of almost every race in Hungary. In the plains of central Hungary, and again in eastern Prussia, I saw gangs of wandering laborers, made up of men and women who come to this part of the country from Slavic countries farther South and East to take part in the harvest on the great estates. During this time I became acquainted to some extent also with representatives of almost every type of civilization, high and low, among the peoples of southern Europe, from the Dalmation herdsmen, who lead a rude and semibarbarous existence on the high, barren mountains along the coast of the Adriatic, to the thrifty and energetic artisans of Bohemia and the talented Polish nobility, who are said to be among the most intelligent people of Europe. I did not, among these classes I have mentioned, see the most primitive people of the Slavic race, nor the type of the man of that race farthest down. In fact, I have heard that in the mountain regions of southern Galicia there are people who make their homes in holes in the ground or herd together in little huts built of mud. I did not see, either, as I should like to have seen, the life of those Slavic people in southwestern Hungary who still hold their lands DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, JUNE 17 1911. in common and live together in patriarchal communities, several families beneath one roof, under the rule of a "house father" and a "house mother," who are elected annually to govern the community. What little I did see of the life of the different branches of the race gave me the impression, however, of a people of great possibilities, who, coming late into the possession of modern ideas and modern methods, were everywhere advancing, in some places rapidly and in others more slowly, but always making progress. One thing that has hindered the advancement of the Slavs has been the difference in the languages spoken by the different branches of the race. So great an obstacle is this difference of language that some years ago, when a congress of all the Slavic peoples was held at Prague, the representatives of the different branches of the race, having no common tongue, were compelled to speak to each other in the one language that they all professed to hate, namely German. Another thing that has hindered the progress of the Slavs has been the inherited jealousies and the memories they cherish of ancient injuries they have inflicted on one another in times past. In general it seems to be true of the races of Austri-Hungray that each race or branch of the race hates and despises every other, and his hatred is the more bitter the more closely they are associated. For example, there is a long-standing feud between the Polish peasants and the Polish nobility. This division is so great that the Polish peasants have frequently sided against the Polish nobility in the contests of the latter with the central government of Austria. However, this sentiment of caste which separates the two classes of the Polish people is nothing compared with the contempt with which every Pole, whether he be peasant or noble, feels for every Ruthenian, a people with whom the Pole is very closely related by blood, and with whom he has long been in close political association. On the other hand, the Ruthenian in Galicia looks upon the Pole, just as the Czech in Bohemia looks upon his German neighbor, as his bitterest enemy. The two peoples refuse to intermingle socially; they rarely intermarry; in many cases they maintain separate schools, and are represented separately in the Imperial Parliament, each race electing its own representatives. But all are united in hating and despising the Jew, who, although he claims for himself no separate part of the Empire, and has no language to distinguish himself from the other races about him, still clings as tenaciously as any other portion of the population to his own racial traditions and customs.—Outlook.

It is estimated by a writer in the Banker and Investor Magazine that the colored people of the United States have not less than $30,000,000 on deposit. In one bank in Washington, D. C., alone, they have more than $50,000. What the Negro must learn is the art of investing his money wisely. Charles W. Anderson, collector of internal revenue for the second district of New York, is a versatile genius. He knows more things besides politics. Recently Mr. Anderson, who is quite a patron of art, was elected to membership in the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City. This action was taken at the suggestion of the national metropolis.

NAPIER, Chairman Executive Committee, Washington, D. C. EMMETT J. SCOTT, Corresponding Secretary, Tuskegee Institute, Ala. A Weapon of Defense By EFFIE STEVENS Olive Perrington, lounging comfortably in an easy chair in the Winthrops' cosy guest chamber, turned the pages of her book mechanically. Her mind was too intent upon a certain intensely important episode in her own life story to care whether the fictitious woes of Elizabeth or Reginald culminated happily or not, and she finally let the novel fall unheeded to her lap. A fire blazed cheerly on the hearth, and the rose-shaded lamp on the table at her side diffused a soft radiance over all, but so far Olive was concerned the room might have been steeped in Egyptian darkness or draped with the habiliments of woe. It would have been more nearly in keeping with her present mood. "Oh, why was I so foolish as to refuse Kenton Dudley!" Olive groaned, as she gazed unseeingly into the fire. "Of course I never supposed he cared so little as to take the first 'no.' Besides, I had no idea I cared until it was too late. And now my life is spolled. People say one gets over such things but I know I never shall." Olive was very young, besides an in-veterate novel reader. A creeaking noise brought the dreamer out of her gloomy reverie with a start. She sat up wide-eyed, and listened intently for a repetition of the ominous sound. "It's only the wind rising," she laughed shakily. "It always seems as if a frame house was going all to pieces if there is the least gust of wind. If every little noise is going to scare me so, I shall wish I hadn't urged Dick and Lucia to fulfill their evening's engagement at the Owens', even if my cold did keep me at home." Olive had a little excuse for her uneasiness for there had been several burglaries in the neighborhood. Except for Nora, the maid, she was alone in the house, and Nora's presence would be of little use in an emergency, for her room was in the third story, she was probably asleep long ago, and when once asleep little short of an earthquake could arouse her. Olive wondered if Dick Wentworth owned a pistol, but she could not have brought herself to touch any fire-arm had she known where to find one. She would have considered a burglar less dangerous. "Of course there isn't any danger," she thought. "Still I should feel safer if I had some sort of a weapon." Suddenly a brilliant idea came to Olive. At least it seemed brilliant to her. Somewhere she remembered having read of red pepper as having been used as a weapon of defense. Naturally she had no red pepper, but she decided that no well regulated family would be apt to be without the pungent spice. Gathering together firmly the little courage she possessed, Olive started on a pilgrimage through the dark and silent house in the direction of the kitchen. The occasional pressing of an electric button not only lighted her way but added to her stock of courage. After much search, she succeeded in locating the spices in an elaborate kitchen cabinet. It seemed somewhat audacious for a guest to rummaging in the lower regions without the knowledge of her hostess but the circumstances seemed to furnish an excuse. With a sigh of relief Olive grasped a small but well filled paper bag and sped back to her chamber much faster than she had come. "I shall have to spread it out so I can easily get a handful if the need arises," she decided with a light laugh. After emptying the reddish powder into an empty bon-bon dish, she placed the dish conveniently on the table and sank into the chair. By this time both gloomy thoughts and fears had been completely banished and Olive was soon lost in her book. Sometime later she was aroused by the unmistakable sound of stealthy footsteps up the front walk. With unusual presence of mind Olive turned down the light. Then she sat listening with bated breath. The footsteps did not ascend the front steps but skirted around the side of the house. With a great heart throb Olive realized that some one was beneath her window fumbling at the stout ladder-like trellis leaning against the side of the house. Then she heard some cautiously climbing up. For an instant Olive struggled with a deathly faintness that threatened to overpower her. Then she pulled herself together, rose, clutched a handful of the spice, and tottered towards the window. There came a fumbling at the window. Olive held her breath, hoping against hope that the window was fastened, though she well knew that she was apt to be careless about trifles. She did not stop to think that to a burglar a fastened window would prove only a slight obstacle. Her hope was futile. The window sash began slowly to rise. Nerving herself, Olive waited until the window had been pushed open as far as possible; then she frantically fling the contents of her hand into the shadowy man's face in the opening. There came a choaking gasp, and Olive, feeling sure that she had hit the mark, fied, trembling to the opposite side of the room. Instead of crashing headlong from the trellis in a paroxysm of agony as Olive fully expected, the intruder made a reckless leap into the room. Though dazed with fright Olive managed to turn on the light. Then she stood at bay, wild-eyed and panting. But the stranger only uttered a deep groan, and sank into a chair, covering his face with his hands, and swaying back and forth, apparently in an extremity of anguish. Olive's eyes dilated with horror as she took her first good look at the bowed figure. "Kenton!" she whispered. "Oh, oh, oh!" groaned the intruder. "Oh, Kenton," walled Olive wildly. "Have I blinded you? Why did you climb up here?" "The Wentworths are cousins of mine, as you ought to know for yourself," Kenton Dudley replied, his speech punctuated with dismal groans. "I often run out here and spend a night with them. I never thought of the Owens' entertainment until I got here. I came to see you this time, but I supposed you had gone with them. I had no latch key, and arousing Nora was out of the question. As I have usually occupied this room I thought I would get in this way. I have done so before." "Oh, you can never forgive me," gasped Olive in an agonized tone. "I mistook you for a burglar." "I'll forgive you on one condition—that you reconsider a certain decision," he said. "I guess you know what I mean." Olive's eyes flashed. Olive's eyes missed. "Oh, Kenton," she faltered, her voice growing fainter. "I've been sorry about that ever since. I'll—I'll be eyes for you." Kenton's hands came down from before his face in a trice, and he caught Olive in a close embrace. "Be the delight of my eyes instead," he cried with a laugh of triumph, and not a trace of shame at deception in his voice. Olive tried to draw away from him. "Kenton Dudley you were just making all that fuss," she accused indignantly. Then as Kenton's clasp grew firmer she decided that after all it wasn't worth while to become angry. She was too happy. "Never mind, dear," Kenton consoled her. "It's only woman's luck. She never can hit anything. But you captured your man, anyhow." Just then the chugging of a motor car was heard outside. "The folks have returned," he added, releasing her. "I'd better get out of this the way I got in, double quick, and go and welcome them." When his head alone was visible above the window sill, he paused and remarked in a low voice, a grin on his face: "I suppose you thought that stuff was red pepper." Then he disappeared hastily. With a look of consternation, Olive examined the contents of the bon-bon dish carefully. She had mistaken harmless ground cinnamon for red pepper—aged, stale, tasteless cinnamon, at that! MADE CRIPPLES OF CHICKS Wisconsin Powder Mill Explosion Left Its Effect on Eggs That Were Hatching. Kenosha, Wis.—Kenosha will have the greatest crop of twisted and deformed chickens ever raised anywhere this year, and it is all due to the recent explosion at the powder mills at Pleasant Prairie. Chickens hatched in the incubators of the county since the explosion are found to be singularly deformed. More than 98 per cent. of the chickens are suffering from twisted legs, broken wings and similar alliments, and while many of them are still living it is thought the loss will be unusually large. A poultry farm, where an incubator held 188 eggs, 186 of the number hatched, and of the chickens only two were perfect. The deformed chickens are a grotesque sight. Wild birds will have a refuge about the state capital. A preserve including about 10,000 acres will be set aside wherein hunting will not be allowed. This became effective May 20. Lands surrounding the state institutions are included in the preserve by Governor West. A law passed by the last legislature provides that the state game warden may enter into contracts with land owners to have their farms included. Hunting thereon may then be punished with a jail sentence as well as a fine. Portland Correspondence Seattle Post-Intelligencer. No Chance to Spite Him. "Why do you put up with the manager's boorishness?" asked the leading man. "You could get another engagement tomorrow if you were to leave this company." "I know it," replied the lady star, "but my understudy won't even catch a bad cold." MANY NEW FACES ARE SEEN Noticeable Changes in Washington's Social Life at the Special Session of Congress. New faces—that is what one has seen on every hand in Washington during the special session of congress. Lawmakers who replaced the old standbys and familiar figures in the nation's councils are numerous, and their families help to swell the throng. It is some years since there has been such a general upheaval in congressional circles and the lucky remnants of the old regime find themselves a court of first resort for the new brethren who are getting their first experience in the ups and downs of life at the capital. Not content to withdraw with the ending of their official standing, many of the old-timers are again on the scene, lured back no doubt by curiosity or force of habit; yea, possibly by a secret longing for the life of prestige and distinction to which through many years they have become accustomed. Of the "great leaders" present at the opening of this extra session of congress there are such distinguished ex-senators as Depew, Aldrich, Burrows and Hale. With all the eagerness of boys they returned to their old haunts to watch the beginning of those men who are taking their places. To add to the maze of the moment, a mighty lively and up-to-date set of women are to come to the fore. Mostly representatives from the middle west, they have the progressive viewpoint pretty well directed in all lines of life and no matter how the prophets may talk of the "same old days and the same old ways," there is bound to be a new note struck once the incoming circle get settled down in their new homes. Furthermore, as the new leaders, Cummins, Borah, Bristow, La Follette, Poindexter, Watson, Clark, Underwood and Slayden, are from ten to twenty years younger than the men they will supplant, the little matter of youth will have its bearing in the social changes which are bound to evidence themselves as the new regime gets down to work. UNCLE SAM'S OFFICIAL CLOCK Located in an Underground Vault and Protected Against Atmospheric Changes. This clock became the official timekeeper for the United States, November 18, 1883. This clock is in an underground vault that the temperature may be as constant as possible. It is inclosed in a glass case, and this in turn is inclosed in another glass case in order to minimize the effects of atmospheric changes. It is wound automatically by an electrical arrangement. The naval observatory was created for the purpose of regulating the chronometers of ships. Soon there was a demand for accurate time from other sources. Thence dates the "Time Ball" that marks the arrival of noon from its staff over the state, war and navy building. At the exact instant of noon, by electric contact provided by the swing of the clock's pendulum, the time ball is released and scores of Washingtonians and sightseers, ob BLDC VAC A Wonderful Timekeeper. servant of the sphere's descent, go forth to regulate their own timepieces. It is one of the interesting sights of Washington to witness people daily at noon with watches in their hands and their eyes glued on the war department's staff. From other cities soon came a demand for a "time ball," and now a score of them are thus supplied. By co-operation with the telegraph companies, at the same instant that the time balls fall, the swinging pendulum has made automatic contact with the electric wires that weave their way to every center of life within the borders of the country. Electric clocks are connected in all the cities, and as the stroke of noon flashes over the wires, inaccuracies are instantly rectified. Must Carry Lights. A Washington order has gone into effect which makes it obligatory that all private vehicles, business wagons, carts, etc., carry lights. There were several arrests immediately following the order, but while there is an army of kickers and there will probably be some law suits over it, the vehicles are all wearing lamps until such time as the order may be abolished. CHARLES R. CRISP IS NOW HOUSE PARLIAMENTARIAN. Son of a Former Speaker of the House Has Succeeded to the Job Vacated by Asher Hinds. One of the most valuable men to Speaker Champ Clark in his daily work in the house of representatives is Charles Robert Crisp, the parliamentary clerk. When the house is in session Mr. Crisp stands beside the speaker's desk to advise him on parliament- work in the house of representatives is Charles Robert Crisp, the parliamentary clerk. When the house is in session Mr. Crisp stands beside the speaker's desk to advise him on parliamentary law or precedents that have to be consulted to guide the speaker in his ruling. When congress convened last December and the Democrats began to map out the organization of the house as soon as they should come into control, one of the most important places to be filled was that of parliamentary clerk, or as he is officially known, "clerk at the speaker's table." Asher Hinds of Maine, now a member of the house, held the position for 16 years. He was master of the house rules, having them at his finger tips. Where could the Democrats find an Asher Hinds? With his characteristic common sense, Champ Clark consulted Hinds on the subject. "Why don't you get Charley Crisp?" queried Hinds. Then he told Clark who Crisp was and recommended him highly. The result was that Crisp got M. Hon. Charles R. Crisp. the job. It pays two salaries, one for being clerk to the speaker, at $3,600, and an extra $1,000 for preparing a digest of the rules. Charles Robert Crisp is a Georgian, the son of Charles Frederick Crisp, who was speaker of the house in the Fifty-second and Fifty-third congresses, the last time the house was Democratic. At that time young Crisp was his father's parliamentary clerk. The elder Crisp died during the Fifty-fourth congress and his son was elected to fill his unexpired term. Mr. Crisp was born in Georgia October 19, 1870. He comes of English stock and of a family of actors, his father being the only one of his generation who was not on the stage. Mr. Crisp's grandfather, Robert Crisp, was a well-known English actor. With his wife, an actress, he came to America. They brought with them their youngest child, Charles Frederick Crisp, who was born in Sheffield. Settling in Georgia, they obtained several theaters in various parts of the state. Young Charles Frederick was put to school in Virginia. At the age of sixteen he ran away from school and entered the Confederate army. At the close of the war, he returned to his parents in Georgia, entered politics and eventually came to congress. His brothers and sisters all went on the stage. The member of the family who made the greatest success was Harry Crisp of Boston. Twenty years ago he was known as one of the most capable leading men in the country and was a member of some of Boston's most famous stock companies. When the present parliamentary clerk of the house went out of congress he resumed the practice of law. For ten years he has been judge of the county court of Schley county, Georgia. He is married and has one child. "By a curious twist of fate Asher Hinds and I have divided this position of parliamentary clerk between us for the past twenty-two years," Mr. Crisp said as he sat in his room working over a new digest of the rules. "Mr. Hinds came to Washington with Speaker Reed as his parliamentary clerk in the Fifty-first congress. That was in 1889. Two years later he gave way to me. I held the position for four years. The house became Republican and Mr. Reed was reelected speaker. He reappointed Hinds. "Now, sixteen years later, I come along again. Through it all Mr. Hinds and I have been warm personal friends. I happen to know that he recommended me for this position and did everything he could for me. "When Hinds made his maiden speech in the house last week I listened to every word of it. While I oppose his views, I must say he made one of the best speeches I ever beard." ```markdown ``` The Shoe W Is the only shoe worth consid fit for your foot is the main out what that shoe is by lett will only take a few minutes t have decided on the style you WHY S FOOT TO HENNING'S $ TWO STORES---820 Supply Your Home Tivol Bottle The Empire Phone C N.

The law itself, in meaning and intention, is the real foundation of society, and its adjudication and execution are as vital to the welfare of society and the promotion of the benefits of civilization as are the processes with which we supply the food whereby we sustain life. Deliberate wrong, ignorance, bias or prejudice in any form are as repugnant to every true system of jurisprudence and to all procedure where the spirit of the law is understood and respected as are falsehood and vice in the seats of the just. But all lawyers do not fully appreciate the dignity of the courts or the high importance of the law as a social instrument. The coarser the character of the man practising in the courts or sitting on the bench, the lower the grade of his understanding of his great calling and the less respectful his demeanor in the conduct of cases. It is a too common experience in police courts, justice and magistrate courts, for lawyers, and sometimes the presiding officer, to roundly abuse one or the other party to a case, upon the strength of his own prejudiced or personally biased feelings or pretended feelings, with motives entirely vicious and illegal. Because of this unwarranted and illogical inclination, colored litigants often meet with base injustice in the very places where justice is supposed to be guaranteed, and this in the false assumption of justice. Not long since a judge of one of the courts of the District of Columbia, in deciding a case before him, referred to the defendant as a "nigger," and gave judgment against him. Guilty or innocent, the defendant before such a court could not have a fair, impartial trial, and such an official ought to be impeached or peremptorily removed from office. But a case of judicial dignity of the right sort is reported from Georgia, where Thomas B. Felder, Attorney General-elect of Georgia, while defending several white clients charged with peonage in the United States Court, persistently referred to the prosecuting witness as a "nigger." Judge Emory Speer, before whom the case was being tried, asked the attorney to spare the court this "nigger, nigger, nigger," as it was "unworthy of a great court of justice to be alluding to these poor, unfortunate creatures constantly in the lower terms of degradation." The attorney replied hotly that he knew his duties and rights as a lawyer. Whereupon Judge Speer told him that he was exceeding those rights by an appeal to the lowest race prejudice, and that if he insisted upon the use of such language, he would be debarred from further practice in that court. The case proceeded without the further use of the word. Similar instances, uncorrected, are doubtless of daily occurrence throughout the South, and are too often reflected by counter occurrences in the North, like the judgment of a New York court that the color and social standing of a plaintiff ought to be considered in awarding damages for alleged injury to his character and reputation. This decision was happily reversed by the court of appeals. But the prevalence of this kind of injustice, or the tendency toward it, in American courts, discloses the great lack of respect for and understanding of that character of judicial dignity and unbending honor which must be acknowledged by all who enter a court room, if law and authority are to become the bulwark of personal safety upon which civilization shall stand.

Owing to the growing demand in England for soft cheeses, a Yorkshire agricultural college has issued leaflets to encourage farmers to make cheeses of the types of Camembert, Brie, Pont Eveque and Gervais, as made in France.

VERY good specialist finds his level by and by, but many who are vain of their specialty get a start with difficulty. The friendless, trust-to-luck one who comes to the city with just one little talent to depend on doesn't succeed as does the girl who can boast of doing one thing well, another thing better, and one particular thing best, and who isn't too proud to do either to get a start. That sanguine specialist who comes to the big city with grand dreams ought to be prepared to make some sacrifices before she can get the big positions. There was a music teacher once—the kind who sneered at every other occupation but that of running delicate white fingers over piano keys. Her home town showered her with compliments until it became too narrow for her, and pastures new in Chicago was the natural alternative. She would have a choice studio in a choice locality and get choice pupils from choice families—in fact, her whole dream was so choice that Providence chose to bestow some choice disillusionments. She came and saw but didn't conquer much—not even fifteen pupils wherewith to pay her studio rent. Her funds gave out and she was too vain of her specialty to fall back temporarily on something less pretentious, also not wise enough to realize in the first place that Rome isn't built in a day where there is fierce competition. During this period of stress a friend offered her the position of cashier in a jewelry store and suggested that she take the place for a month or so until she could get more pupils, and was also advised to get a position as piano player in one of the stores. She only sniffed haughtily that all these positions were beneath her, and passed the matter up because "sliding along that way" was awfully distasteful to her and "not her style at all," and that "her art was too dear after all." Perhaps so, but if she had really loved her art she would have been brave and strong enough to make some sacrifices for it. The versatile girl in the city who is willing to utilize her lesser talent in behalf of her beloved specialty can float along quite a while without danger of sinking. One girl with artistic ambitions kept accounts and did the correspondence in a crossroads cheese factory. She went to the city to take a course in art with $50. Her fifty had melted at the end of two months, when there wasn't the slightest prospect of getting returns from her drawings, and it was up to her to secure night work of some kind or go back to the cheese factory. The upshot was that she diligently followed up half a dozen ads one Saturday when the future looked particularly murky. Her versatility and willingness to make use of her lesser gifts while perfecting her specialty has been her main boost to victory. It verifies the truth of the idea that all great people are not afraid to appear small when a good object demands it. thly I could afford that, but their grades are now preaching to be prompt in their studies and the class they are suspended that there are many who entered. or discouraging.

All this is rather discouraging. I might send him a year or two and then he might be expelled. He then would be no more the wiser, as an ordinary business man, than if he never entered high school. At this point he might feel too big for common work and yet would not be educated enough to make a better man, and at length, after lingering around he would become a young man of no account.

I would like to send one to high school, as I always desired to have him study law. Of course that means four years in high school and two years to a university, which is six years more of schooling.

Fifty and more men versed in the profession of arms are already on the eligible list for commissions in this army. Three new boards of army officers, composed of seasoned colonels, experienced majors, captains and first and second lieutenants, were recently named to pass upon the qualifications of other candidates ambitious to direct imaginary military forces. Artemus Ward's shoulder strap company of warriors, assembled to take part in the big family feud of 1861-5, had at least one private—the humorist himself, who was in command; but the army of the United States volunteers is to have none. Don Quixote armed with a big stick, his head protected by a "Malbrino helmet," mounted on his charger, "Rosinante," and followed by the faithful Sancho Panza EMPLOYEES of the postal service particularly the men employed in the railway mail branch, are making a determined fight for legislation under which they may organize and affiliate with the American Federation of Labor. Samuel Gompers, president of the federation, is supporting the movement. Many men formerly in the postal service, but who were let out because they were active in encouraging employees of the service to organize, have told the committee of the wrongs which they assert are done the employees. In a general way, the grievance of the employees is that men are frequently dismissed for purely political reasons, men let out of the service have no recourse. It is pointed out that the postoffice department now forbids the individual employee from laying any complaint he may have before his senator or member of congress. The civil service commission has come in for much criticism because it has not taken more interest in cases of dismissed employees. Witnesses have pointed out to the committee that the commission will not act in the case of a dismissed employee unless it has prima facie evi THAT WAS A PRETTY GOOD SPEECH YOU DIDN'T MAKE I JUST READ IT IN THE RECORD CONGRESSIONAL RECORD REPRESENTATIVES VICTOR MURDOCK, insurgent Republican, of Kansas; Swager Sherley of Kentucky and Frank Clark of Florida, both Democrats, have been fighting to have every unspoken "speech" printed in the Congressional Record labeled something like this: "Not delivered in the house of representatives." These men believe that the Record, as it now leaves the press, perpetrates a fraud on the reader every time it declares that Congressman —— delivered the following speech on such a date, when all Congressman —— did was to get permission to insert in its columns a carefully prepared manuscript intended for the consumption of his constituents, at the expense of the United States government. "It is the only honest way," declared Murdock to the correspondent. A WILTED representative, John J. Fitzgerald of Brooklyn, N. Y., chairman of the house appropriations committee, is the first distinguished convert to Dr. Harvey W. Wiley's theory with respect to the effect of auto-suggestion on the temperature of the body. Mr. Fitzgerald sat at his desk all through a sizzling, sweltering day, wearing a smile of perfect peace. His coat was buttoned tightly, the collar of it turned up around his neck, and every now and then he shivered with unseasonable delight. Right in front of Mr. Fitzgerald a large person with bushy black whiskers lay on his stomach on a snowbank squinting through a transit or some other funny looking instrument of that sort. To his right another large person, clad in furs, sat on a cake of ice and scribbled busily in a notebook. In the middle distance three Eskimo dogs fought over a dead fish. In the background dozens of stately ice barges floated round casually. "I'm certainly happy that I found this painting of the 'Farthest North' of the Greely expedition," said Mr. Fitzgerald, referring to the enormous canvas in front of him, which, mas- was a more real, more tangible and more formidable force than the ghostly army of United States volunteers. It's a joker in the Dick militia bill, enacted into law by congress on May 27, 1908. The Dick bill originally provided for an actual army of United States volunteers similar to the volunteers who enlisted for the Spanish-American war after state organizations were found to be troublesome. The bill also provided for a separate section for an eligible list from which officers were to be commissioned when the army of United States volunteers, subject only to the will of the commander-in-chief of the armies of the United States, might be called into being in a condition of war. The section providing for the volunteer army was stricken from the bill in the course of a legislative wrangle over the privilege of the states to organize volunteers. The authority creating the army was thus destroyed, but the contingent section bringing into existence the list of eligibles for the army's commissioned officers was not disturbed. The bill thus passed congress, disembodying the army but providing officers for it. That is why the war department is now qualifying men as eligibles. THEY FIRE US FOR POLITICAL REASONS AND 1.2.1.1.1 dence that the dismissal was because of politics. It is next to impossible, say the dismissed employees who have testified, to prove that men were removed from the service through political influence. Some of the new members of the house who have become much interest- ed in the grievances of the postal employees believe a remedy of some sort will be found in the committee on civil service. The whole subject is likely to hold the attention of congress throughout this special session and perhaps throughout the regular session. The committee on expenditures in the postoffice department has been authorized by the house to make an investigation of the postoffice department, and it, too, will go into this question as to whether the employees of the different branches of the service are being properly treated. "The Record, under the present system, is not a true report of the proceedings of the house. It may well be that an article of value, prepared by a member of congress, should be printed in the Record, but it should be so designated. "But to my mind the greatest end that would be attained under this system would be the shortening of speeches in congress and the restoration of debate to a plane it once occupied. "The first result of labeling things in the record by their right names would be the abandoning of the present abuse by individual representatives. When a man's constituents begin to ask him, 'Did you really deliver this speech, or did you just have it printed?' he will quit the practice. "Congress could not possibly afford the time that would be necessary for the delivery of all the speeches that appear in the Record. Therefore, speeches will have to be shortened, and they ought to be. No man needs an hour in congress to explain an idea. Half an hour, and usually less, ought to be enough for any man." NORTH POLE THIS IS A GREAT IDEA - I BELIEVE I WILL COPYRIGHT IT sively framed, covered most of the west wall of the big appropriations committee's room. "Dr. Wiley is right when he says this worrying about the heat is largely the result of one's mental attitude. I've been sitting here looking at this picture for an hour and I am thinking of resuming my winter flannels. I wish I could carry it around with me." Chairman Fitzgerald found the painting in the house "discard" room. The illusion is helped along by a battery of electric fans arranged on either side of the picture, which makes it appear as if cooling breezes from the very pole itself were sweeping through the room. "Thrs auto-suggesting business is fine," Mr. Fitzgerald remarked to a visitor. "I'm going to install a picture of the burning of Rome in my home next winter and see how much I can save on coal bills." ALASKA IS NEAR REVOLT THE SMOLDERING FIRES OF ALASKA ARE READY TO BURST INTO FLAMES. MAY DEFY U. S. ARMY VANDERLIP OF NEW YORK MAKES STARTLING PUBLIC STATEMENT. Seattle, Wash.—"The smouldering fires of Alaska are ready to burst into flame. Alaska is at the breaking point. The people either will raise a flag, declare their independence and defy any army the United States may send against them, or will go over to Canada, root, branch and all." Such was the declaration of Washington B. Vanderlip of New York. Vanderlip is not an applicant for a coal claim, and he does not own a pound of coal and is not seeking any. Vanderlip is en route to the Tanana valley. He is a mining engineer, a member of the Institute of Mining Engineers, a fellow of the Royal Geographical society of London, and a cousin of F. A. Vanderlip of the National City bank of New York. Vanderlip pointed to the Cordova incident as proving the state of mind of the people against the government. At Cordova, not many weeks ago, the residents dumped a cargo of coal from the wharf into the sea. He declared that the United States government had harassed, robbed, cheated, plundered, or allowed to be plundered the people of the territory. They are forced to pay exorbitant prices for their coal, he said, when there are billions of tons of coal beneath their very feet, even a pound of which they were prohibited from touching, but must buy Canadian coal. Vanderlip narrated how justice, in innumerable instances, had been denied the people of Alaska through many years. He declared that monopoly had gained rights and powers, either through chicanery, bribery or other illegal means, and that the people of the territory, in every instance, had been forced to "hold the bag," see their lands gobbled up by "big business" or themselves prevented from enjoying either the fruits of the citizenship or of their labors. He added: "The menacing spirit of unrest and even revolution is smoldering, and soon will burst into a consuming flame that will sweep over the territory. The men of that land are those who are accustomed to fighting. "They have conquered the snow, the ice, the cold, the mountains and the ice-bound streams. They have fought the elements. Theye have fought for the gold and other mineral wealth beneath the frozen earth. They are fighters, and their fighting spirit has been aroused by the alleged injustice done to them. "That they will rise against the government or make overtures to Canada in the hope of being justly treated I have not the slightest doubt. "It seems strange and even uncanny that a territory of the United States would rise against the government, and for alleged injustice in the manner in which that territory is being governed, but I am convinced the United States Government will have a war on its hands, both to its own shame and to the unenviable light in which it will be placed before the eyes of the world, if the unjust conditions in Alaska are not alleviated."

Denver, Colo. Again We Say Subscribe for THIS PAPER NEW NEWS OF YESTERDAY by E. J. Edwards Famous Publisher's Prophecy Emperor Was Enraged Because the American Said French Could Invade England With His "Cooking Water" Invention. It is stated in history that in 1803 Robert Fulton constructed a small steamboat on the Seine and endeavored to get the French government interested in his invention, with an idea of utilizing it in Napoleon's proposed invasion of England, a project that was then receiving much attention from the little Corsican. The following anecdote, which I have from the lips of Baron Eckenstein, who for many years has been associated with the diplomatic life of Germany, sheds a dramatic light on this attempt of Fulton to interest the first Napoleon in the application of steam to navigation. "At the time Bismarck was at the height of his power," said Baron Eckenstein during a recent visit to this country, "I was a member of his official family. At a dinner which he gave to a number of us who were so associated with him, one of the company gave it as his opinion that the new telephone instrument, which was then just being introduced in Germany, ought to be of great service in affairs of state. The speaker called attention especially to the fact that a telephone line had been completed between Potsdam and Breslau, saying that this would surely prove a great convenience when the court was at the palace at Potsdam. "Bismarck, who was one of the best of listeners, but who could also tell a story very well himself, made no direct reply to his guest's statement, but instead told the following anecdote: "In the summer of 1851 I paid a visit to Prince Metternich at the castle of Johannisberg, at Frankfurt on the Rhine. That was before his exile from Austria, as a result of the revolutionary outbreaks of '48, had come to an end. We had many talks together, and one evening, when the prince was entertaining quite a party of friends, he was asked if he ever saw the first Napoleon excepting in ultra-official relations. James T. Fields In 1879 Predicted Writers Familiar With Western Life Would Soon Displace the New England School. Who hears today of James Thomas Fields? Yet in what has been termed the golden age of American literature, he was a famous man, albeit his fame was not so great as that of some of the many men whose publisher he was—Longfellow, Hawthorne, Emerson, Lowell, Holmes, Whittier. But he was not a book publisher only; he was a writer and lecturer of wide reputation, and a famous editor. After James Russell Lowell resigned the editorship of the Atlantic Monthly, which was published by Mr. Fields's house, Mr. Fields himself assumed the editorial direction of that famous periodical. That occurred in 1862, and for eight years thereafter he held the post, although at first his purpose in taking the position involved no more than temporary editing until he could find some one competent to fill Lowell's place. From the day in 1839, when he became a publisher, until his death in 1881, he had more intimate personal associations with the great literary men and women of the United States and Great Britain than any other American, and, perhaps, any English speaking person. When I met Mr. Fields, in 1879, two years before his death, his long beard, quite the beard of a prophet, was streaked with gray, as was his abundant head of hair. His complexion was fair; his eyes seemed to be dark brown, but owing to a constant twitching of his eyelids, it was almost impossible to decide whether the color was dark brown or deep gray. A slender man, of medium height, his stooping shoulders, of the bookworm type, caused his stature to appear shorter than it really was. "Let us sit down," he said, in a delightful voice that at once backed up the reputation he had long enjoyed of being a man of charming personal qualities, of deep sympathies, and of great liberality in all his dealings with authors, "let us sit down, and I will make answer, according to my ability, to your questions: 'Are there any young writers of promise to whom my attention has been called?' "There are one or two in Massachusetts. I mean, of course, writers of fiction. But I am now satisfied that the great masters of American fiction will hereafter be men and women who have had personal familiarity with the new life of the west Bret Harte and Mark Twain have already shown how rich that field is. "Our New England writers have almost exhausted New England as a field for fiction. Modern New England is intensely practical and material. I doubt whether it is longer pos- Masters Cultivated Their Style Masters Cultivated Their Style was stationed in Berlin from 1803 to 1806 as Austria's representative at the Prussian court, he was instructed to hold a special audience with Napoleon; and the appointment having been arranged for he presented himself at the palace at the proper hour. "He was kept waiting for some time in the anteroom. He thought this strange, since Napoleon was usually very prompt in keeping his appointments. But at last the doors were thrown open, and Napoleon burst into the anteroom. He was clearly in a state of violent anger. He took no heed of Prince Metternich at first, but stormed back and forth speaking to himself in his outbursts of fury. "This continued for some time; then having gained control of himself Napoleon observed the prince and promptly apologized for losing his temper. "But what would you?" he said. O. H. Platt Absorbed It From the Bible, Hoar Studied De Quincey and Hooker, Morgan Talked as He Thought. Three United States senators of yesterday who were noted for the purity of their English style and the appropriateness of their speech were Orville H. Platt of Connecticut, George Frisbie Hoar of Massachusetts, and John T. Morgan of Alabama. Their knowledge and employment of the English language were a constant source of mingled admiration, envy and wonder to many another senator less adept in his mother tongue, and before each man had been long in the senate he had achieved a national reputation as a master in the English tongue. "Senator Platt," I said to him one day, as he lay at full length on a soft while he enjoyed a cigar—he was an inveterate smoker—"many persons have often wondered whether the purity of your English style—your master of the language—is the result of sible to write a great work of fiction based upon New England life. Some of the short story writers may continue to give admirable vignettes of this life; there are numerous quaint nooks that remain to be discovered in New England. But quaint nooks do not call forth great novels. "No, the day of New England in fiction is passing, and the day of the west in it is dawning. The great original work of fancy and imagination by an American is to have for its background western life, and it must be told by some one who has been familiar with that life. By West. I mean that part of the country which lies beyond the Alleghany mountains; and it may be that this great work of fiction will come from west of the Mississippi." The great American novel, so called, that Mr. Fields clearly had in mind is yet to come but long since there appeared on the center of the literary stage of the country the depictors of the life of the West, displacing the school of New England writers.

Lee in the famous race with the steamer Natchez in 1870, when the Lee made the record on the Mississippi between New Orleans and St. Louis, is now being used on the steamer Nashville, plving the Cumberland. The old nautical relic was recovered from the City of Providence, to which steamer it had been removed from the Lee. The wheel is over ten feet in diameter, more than thirty-two in circumference and is made of walnut and cherry. It is of the double circle type of wheel, with two circles of stays around the spokes, which are inlaid with two rows of highly polished basswood. The wheel is in an excellent state of preservation and apparently is as sound as when it guided the Robert E. Lee to victory in the famous old steamboat days on the Mississippi. The record run was made with Captain Cannon in command of the Lee, and as the story goes, "a negro on the safety valve."—Nashville Correspondence St. Louis Republic. Vindicated at Last. Bluebeard explained the mystery. "It was the kitchen, and the cook killed all my previous wives when they entered it." Thus we see how Bluebeard was slandered. "A widow whose husband didn't have to die to get rid of her, my son." "I have just been having an audience with the American minister, M. Livingston. He brought to me an inventor, an American; the inventor said to me that he had been told I was anxious to invade England, but had been deterred because France had no navy. And he said he had an invention that would make it possible for me to invade England without paying any attention to wind or tide or England's navy. What, think you, was this American's invention, with which I would be able to invade England no matter what the wind or tide were? Bah! It was nothing but cooking water! He told me, Napoleon, that with cooking water I could invade England! I dismissed him." "The name of this inventor, Prince Metternich told us,' continued Prince Bismarck, was Robert Fulton, and we all know a few years after he told Napoleon that with boiling water it would be possible to invade England, Fulton's steamboat was sailing upon one of the great American rivers.'" (Copyright, 1911, by E. J. Edwards. All Rights Reserved.) cultivation, arduous study, or whether it is a natural gift." "You know," began the senator, "that my native place was the little town of Washington, in Litchfield county, Connecticut. I had only a common school education; I had no time as a lad to study English style. Later, when I read law, I was too much occupied with the problem of getting ready to earn my living to give any thought to securing an English style. But all the while, I recognize clearly now, I had an unconscious teacher in English style "As a child I was a great reader of the Bible. The familiar Bible stories attracted me greatly and I pored over them again and again. When I became a young man I was greatly impressed by the majesty of the Book of Job. I read and re-read it. Unsuspected by me, I know now, I was taught by the Bible what I know of the English language, for I read it constantly and systematically during my most impressionable years—a habit that I have never broken entirely, for even in my busier days I read at least a chapter of the Bible a day, and that chapter, nearly always, is one from the Book of Job. "My experience was partially that of Senator Hoar," continued Mr. Platt. "You must observe that he is a master of English style, especially of narrative style. I once asked him how he came by this. "From two or three sources," was his reply. "I am a reader of the Bible, I also read DeQuincey, whose style is rich, and I constantly read that old English divine, Hooker. I have absorbed his style. It has a majesty, a swing, unrivaled by any prose writer since Milton." "Then Senator Hoar asked me if I had ever noticed the limpid purity of Senator Morgan's style. 'I have sometimes listened intently to one of his speeches,' said Mr. Hoar, 'in the hope of catching him in some grammatical slip or some clumsy use of English, but I have never been able to discover a fault in his style.' "And Senator Hoar is right—Senator Morgan never makes a mistake in English in his speeches. He is never called upon to correct in the record a single word unless there is error on the stenographer's part. Yet he never prepares his addresses; he speaks extemporaneously for hours at a time, without even hesitating for a word. His is a truly wonderful style, yet he has assured me he never cultivated it. 'I talk as I think,' he said, 'and I never speak unless I have a clear idea of what I am going to say.' "I have heard much advice given about the cultivation of an English style," concluded Senator Platt, "but as for myself, my experience in the senate has taught me that any man who attempts to cultivate an English style spoils his own natural style, and impairs his originality, and becomes a mere mimic. Whatever cultivation there is should be unconscious, like that which I received when in my youth I constantly read the Bible." (Copyright, 1911, by E. J. Edwards. All Rights Reserved.) The Wise Savage. "Now," said the intrepid explorer, after he had shown the guileless native the inside workings of the brass watch and had noted his naive wonder at the mysteries of the mechanism, "I will let you have one of these for two tusks; then you can be the envy of the whole tribe." The native gentleman yawned. "I traded a second-hard war club for a bushel of those things when I was at the world's fair in St. Louis," said he, "and there was not a one of them that ran for more than a week.

The style is distinctly Viennese, due to the fact that it is by a Vienna tailor who makes a specialty of smart water wear. It is as charming as it is modest, yet not quite devoid of a Softness Is Likely to Be the Strong Point of Each—Stripes and Hair Lines Liked. Apart from a few eccentricities which feminine good taste will soon banish, fashion this season is bringing us some charming creations among the new materials, such as, for instance, the reversible covert coating, one side of which is striped and the other plain. Silky cashmeres in very soft tones will also be offered to us—gray, terra cotta, blue, etc. These cashmeres also have one side glossy and one striped. This stripe is generally black and white, though sometimes a dark color, such as navy, brown or violet, replaces the black. Among these double-faced materials which will be very popular, and which lend themselves to such multiple and charming combinations, navy blue lined with khaki, gray or plaid of an indistinct pattern, will be very successful. Very chic also are the fine striped materials—black and whites lined with orange or cerise, or plain black lined with mole or Parma violet, or black with fine hair lines in azure, green or mauve, which have an elegance quite their own. We can imagine nothing which adds more to the slender appearance so much sought after than these stripes and hair lines. Our tailor-mades in these materials will be simple and harmonious, straight without exaggeration. The plain reverls will be lined with fancy material, as also will the turned-back hem of the skirt. Walking Sklrts. Enter the tweed skirt that is short, well fitted, pocketed and rainf and dust defying. It is a practical walking skirt for mountain climbers, for "shirtwalst girls," for city business women. There are many styles to copy when making it. The circular skirt is always good if you are able to prevent sagging at the back seam. This can be done by sewing a tape with the edges the full length of the back seam. The two-piece skirt with the seams at the sides is very satisfactory. Then there is the circular form, with piecing at the center line of both back and front. A deep hem is stitched with eight or ten hows of stitching; a little pocket with a buttoned flap is added, and a narrow stitched belt of the same material finishes the eminently practical garment. Daintles in Lamp Shades. Exquisite indeed is the lamp shades of real lace over a delicately tinted silk background. True, such shades come under the head of luxuries and are not inexpensive—but, then, few beautiful and unusual things are! Very lovely is a shade of squares of Italian lace flet, the pieces joined by bands of Cluny lace and edged with it at top and bottom. And for a fringe what could be more in keeping than little crochet balls, not too close together? Hand-Bag Mounting. The use of hand-wrought copper asounts for handbags of suedes in modish tints and odd shapes is one of the fancies of the season. If there is a monogram on the bag it is carried out in the same metal and the fittings inside the bag or decorated with the copper also. risque touch popular in Europe. It is made of white pongee silk, with inserts of white-and-blue striped silk. The knickerbockers are of the same materials and may be worn loose or gathered just above the knee. Blue silk stockings-and a head band of white silk complete the dainty ensemble. Parisians in Reminiscent Mood Where Tints of the Moment Are Concerned. Empire green (very empire) is the latest whim in Paris, as is everything reminiscent of the empire period. This shade may best be likened to the brilliant yet soft green of the Chinese jade, it is beautiful in every imaginable material, and blends particularly well with silver or gold. Another late shade is sacre, a combination of cerise and coral. It is exceedingly handsome and effective in ostrich plumage and flowers, but must be used with discretion on account of its brilliance. In mauve the latest are prelate, evecue and pervenchee. The first two are rich, deep ecclesiastical purples, and pervenchee is a soft, pale lavender, slightly pinkish in tone. Hener is a beautiful golden yellow, clear and translucent, with just the faintest touch of apricot in the cast. It is practically the only distinct yellow shade in favor at the moment. SMART COIFFURE A A high fan of tulle supported by a band of gold galloon is one of the pretty collure conceits. Corset Cover Straps. When making a corset cover that is to be loose-fitting and fastened by a draw-string at the top and at the waistline, stitch the shoulder straps to the upper edge of the back of the garment. Do not sew them in front, however, but fasten them either with a button and buttonhole or with a small safety pin. Then when the corset cover is laundered you can unfasten these straps and iron the garment flat, a great convenience. Survival of the Klimono Sleeve. Survival of the Kimono Sleeves It is strange how faithful Dame Fashion is to the kimono sleeves, which still appear on the latest models and we have gone back to the very high waist effect. In most of the new skirts there is a loose pleat at the back, which hangs down to varying lengths, but generally reaches the hem. This has a charming effect, and takes away the extreme severity of the plain, tight skirt. The train which has made its appearance is either cut quite square or is very narrow indeed SHOES-SHOES The white canvas shoes are hard to get. We were lucky to pick up a few children's and misses' white canvas oxfords. If you need them, don't wait; we won't have any more. A. E. CURTIS M. HARRIS, Funeral Director.
