"That we, as law-abiding citizens, in common with all good citizens of whatever race, condemn any immoral conduct or violation of the law whether committed by a member of the white or colored race. "That we disavow any and all implied publications that the Negro race, as a race, approve the alleged utterances of Jack Johnson, or any alleged act or acts, which either violate the laws of the land or are repugnant to decent society. "That we unqualifiedly affirm our desire to co-operate with the law abiding white citizens of Chicago to promote the highest civic betterment along all lines, for the moral uplift of all classes, and pledge ourselves to use our highest endeavors to blot out any Negro or set of Negroes, whose immoral conduct tends to lower the moral standing or bring into disrepute the entire Negao race. "That Jack Johnson, at the invitation of this conference of representative Negro citizens appeared in person and unqualifiedly denied that he made the statement, 'He could get any white woman he wanted,' or any statement reflecting upon the womanhood of any race, and being corroborated in such denial by Joseph Levy, a white man who was present at the time the statement was alleged to have been made.

Up to this writing but little has been published about the Johnson affair, and it is confidentially reported that stock exchanges in the East have sent word to the daily newspapers of Chicago, that they no longer send out Johnson stories relative to the Cameron woman. It has also been learned that Johnson will most likely sell his place and go to France to live, as he realizes that it will be an awful hard thing for him to live successfully in this count:y.—By Cary B.

Chicago, Ill., Nov. 2.—The efforts of the Chicago Examiner to put Jack Johnson out of commission, has about failed, for all the newspaper notoriety that was observed, for the past ten or twelve days, has paled into insignificance and members of the race, upon Johnson's own testimony, believe the pugilist to be not guilty. We have this from Johnson's own lips: "I want to say that I never made that statement, attributed to me, to the effect that I could get any white woman I wanted. I lay my hand upon the Bible, and swear that I never such a statement. "My father was a Christian and my mother is a Christian, and I know what it means when I swear by the Bible. I want to say that I never said any thing of the sort about any woman of any color. "But I do want to say that I am not a slave, and that I have the right to choose who my mate shall be without the dictation of any man. I have eyes and I have a heart, and when they fail to tell me who I shall have for mine, I want to be put away in a lunatic asylum. "So long as I do not interfere with any other man's wife, I shall claim the right to select the woman of my own choice. Nobody else can do that for me. That is where the whole trouble lies." Wednesday night of last week, Attorney B. F. Moseley called one hundred representative Negroes to be at the Appomattox Club for conference with Jack Johnson present. The speakers on that occasion were: Rev. D. P. Roberts, pastor of Bethel A. M. E. church; Attorney Edward Scott, assistant state's attorney, and Major John E. Lynch, U. S. A., retired; and Hon. George W. Ellis. Some of the speakers whitewashed the whole affair, while others flayed the champion unmercifully. The result of the meeting was the adoption of the following resolution: "The colored citizens of Chicago through a number of their representattves assembled at the Appomattox Club South Wabash avenue, for the purpose of giving an expression to the public anent the unfortunate Jack Johnson affair, submit: "That the tone of the daily newspaper expressions regarding this episode manifestly does the Negro an injustice by impliedly condemning the entire Negro race for the alleged misconduct of one of DENVER. COLORADO. SATURDAY. NOVEMBER 9 1912. State Hist & Net Hist Sociology State House HANTS WH ADO THE JOURNAL DENVER, COLORADO NEGRO WAITERS TO THE FRONT Washington, D. C., Oct. 30. "It's an ill wind that blows nobody good." By virtue of a foolish and unreasonable strike on the part of between 300 and 400 white waiters in several of the leading hotels and cafes of this city, a large number of Negro waiters taken on at first as strike-breakers, have been given permanent places in the dining rooms of said hotels and cafes. The Raleigh, New Williard and Cafe Republicique, within whose walls a blackface was a stranger, are now fully equipped with colored waiters, and the managers say they have the experience and reliability to hold down jobs for all time. The strikers have attempted violence, but have been pretty well thinned out by Major Sylvester's "strong-arm squad" of blue-coats, who gave the colored men ample protection, escorting many of them to their homes after hours at night. The guests at the hostelries named are delighted with the change. Said a well-known southerner who always stops at the Raleigh: "Negroes should have the first chance at this profession of waiting—for, when properly learned it is a profession. Their opportunities for employment in business and other avenues are so limited that they are entitled to a practical monoply at calling like this, in which they served to better advantage than white men. The white waiter uses his job as a means to an end. He is independent, often supercilious and finds no satisfaction in his work. He feels above it, and goes into something else as soon as he gets in shape to do so. "The Negro, on the other hand, makes waiting a life calling. He is naturally polite and obliging and is never happier than when doing something to please a gentleman or lady of what he terms 'class.' He is proud to be known as a first class waiter and grows better as he goes along. Besides, he 'looks the part,' and we southerners feel perfectly at home when we have him about us. This foreign waiter fad is blowing over, and we are glad to see the Negro returning to the old field in which he is both useful and ornamental. Give me colored waiters every day in the week." In putting colored waiters in their dining rooms permanently, Manager Hillman, Weston nud others have scored a big hit with their "swell" patrons. They assert that, under no consideration will any of the white strikers be taken back. Uncle Pennywise Says: There's a consumer born every minute, whatever the sucker rate may be. PORTER NOW COMPOSER Frankfort, Ind., Oct. 29.—Porter in a barber shop, poet, composer of a comic opera—described John Berry, Frankfort, Ind., a Negro who for several months has been employed as a porter in a barber shop, but who now has developed into a composer and writer, and having quit his porter's job has gone to Muncie, Ind., and will devote all his time to writing music and stories. During his spare time Berry composed the music for 'a song and wrote the words for it. After singing this song to the men in the shop, he became more ambitious and wrote the words and music for a comic opera. Then he wrote a short story. All these productions were submitted to a publisher in Chicago, who accepted them for publication They sent Berry a check for $3,000 for the comic opera, $200 each for two sacred songs, and $67 for the story, making $3,467 received by Berry in payment for his compositions. He is said to have considerable talent, and it is predicted that he will take a prominent place among the musicians of the Negro race.

Ills of Life in the Tropics. Ink deteriorates very quickly in the tropics, and often has the consistency of gum. Steel pens rust very quickly during the wet season. Floating Baths Condemned. Floating baths near great cities are now condemned by sanitary authorities. The vast quantities of sewage that are discharged into the waters that usually border such cities are thought to be productive of disease to bathers, and certainly render their ablutions of doubtful value as a cleansing agency. Most Costly Wood. Cabole, a beautiful tree that grows on the west coast of Africa, and is also found on the island of St. Thomas, is said to furnish the most costly wood in the world. It somewhat resembles teak, and takes on a very high polish. Its price is quoted as about $3,500 a cubic meter. When Men Marry. That's what a man wants in a wife, mostly; he wants to make sure o' one fool as'll tell him he he's wise.

Chicago, Ill., Oct. 22.—Mayor Carter Harrison has increased his popularity among the colored citizens by appointing Sergt. William Childs of the Woodlawn Police Station a lieutenant. The elder Harrison was the first Mayor to appoint a Negro on the Chicago police force, and the son is following in the footsteps of his father in the matter of giving the race fitting recognition. The new lieutenant is a graduate of Talladega College, Ala., and was made a sergeant for engaging in a battle with a band of criminals in Hyde Park in which the colored man came out of the shooting bee a hero. He is the first colored police lieutenant in the United States. Petersburg, Va., Oct. 22—The NO 9 practice resorted to by some whites of charging Negroes more than whites for the same thing was noticeable in this city last week when the South Side Virginia Fair opened its gates for business. The colored school children were charged 25 cents admission, while the white children were compelled to pay but 15 cents. The rule occasioned no little adverse comment, and many of the white citizens here expressed regret that the fair management had seen fit to make such an unjust and uncalled-for discrimination. Wednesday, October 16, was designated for the colored children. But their parents took exception to the discriminating attitude of the fair people and refused to allow their children to attend. As the result the fair lost many dollars it had counted on. Washington, D. C. Oct 20. Word was received here a few days ago that Millie, one of celebrated Millie-Christine twins, known all over the world, had died at the pair near Whiteville, Columbus county, and Wednesday night a message was received stating that Christine died at 1:30 o'clock in the afternoon, some hours after the death of the other. Born in Columbus county in slavery times, the women, who were colored were sold in their youth for $40,000 for exhibition purposes being shown in Philadelphia, a few years after their sale, they were stolen and nothing was heard of them by their owner for a number of years. Finally he located them in the city of London and regained possession of them. He again placed them on exhibition and they appeared before many of the crowned heads of Europe, as well as being exhibited throughout the old country and America. They were seen in Wilmington the last time with a carnival a year or two ago. Millie-Christine had two heads and two sets of lower extremities, but only one body. What one dislikes the other disliked, the same thing made each sick, but they had their differences and were known to have quarreled with themselves.

The president was cheerful and smiling and apparently was under less strain than other members of the family dinner party at the home of his brother. C. P. Taft. Mr. Taft has many times declared his intention of returning to Cincinnati and resuming the practice of law if defeated, and that intention was said last night not to have been altered. President Taft at 11 p. m. conceded the election of Governor Wilson M. President Taft. and issued the following statement: "The returns insure the election of Governor Wilson to the presidency. This means an early change in the economic policy of the government in reference to the tariff. If this change can be made without halting prosperity, I sincerely hope it may be. "The vote for Mr. Roosevelt, the third party candidate, and for Mr. Debs, the Socialist candidate, is a warning that their propaganda in favor of fundamental changes in our constitutional representative government has formidable support. "While the experiment of a change in the tariff is being carried out by the Democratic administration, it behooves Republicans to gather again to the party standard and pledge anew their faith in their party's principles and to organize again to defend the constitutional government handed down to us by our fathers. We must make clear to the young men of the country who have been weaned away from sound principles of government by promise of reforms impossible of accomplishment by mere legislation, that patriotism and common sense require them to return to a support of our constitution. Without compromising our principles, we must convince and win back former Republicans and we must reinforce our ranks with constitution-loving Democrats." Wilson Carries California and Oregon. San Francisco.—Woodrow Wilson has carried California and Oregon and possibly Washington. It is difficult to place by what plurality he has won at this hour, but that he has won seems a certainty. Progressives Lead in Kansas. Topeka, Kan.—Meager returns received at midnight indicated that the Progressive national ticket and the Republican state ticket had been victorious in Kansas. ILLINOIS ELECTS DUNNE ILLINOIS ELECTS DUNNE SULZER IS CHOSEN FOR GOVERN NOR IN EMPIRE STATE. Western Newspaper Union News Service. Chicago, Nov. 6.—In only seven of the states which elected governors were the returns up to 11:30 p. m. complete enough to indicate the probable result, and in only one of these, Illinois, was there an apparent switch from the Republican to the Democratic column. William Sulzer, Democrat, was elected in New York. In Massachusetts and Connecticut the indications were that the incumbents, Eugene N. Foss, Democrat, and Simeon E. Baldwin, Democrat, were reelected. In Illinois, Edward F. Dunne, Democrat, appeared to be leading by a safe margin. Texas returned Oscar B. Colquitt. In Missouri the election of Elliott W. Major, Democrat, was conceded by Republican managers. WILSON HEARS NEWS OF VICTORY Successful Candidate Was Not Over- Confident on Hearing Early Returns. Princeton, N. J., Nov. 6.—Governor Wilson sat last night with a party of friends around a brilliantly illuminated dinner table as the election returns began to come in, earlier than was anticipated. The first results the governor got were favorable and his comment was, "That's very encouraging." The returns that continued to come in from Massachusetts, Connecticut and New York all favored Governor Wilson, and the party about the dinner table showed its pleasure. Captain "Bill" McDonald, the Texas ranger, who is the governor's bodyguard, read a stack of returns and felt so happy that he exclaimed: "I wonder if I'd get arrested if I just shot off my guns. If it keeps up this way I'll just have to turn 'em loose." Captain McDonald is a close friend of Colonel Roosevelt, but differs with him politically. The governor was not over-confident. When shown the returns from New York city he smiled. "I'm supposed to carry the city by three to one in order to win the state," he said, as he continued his dinner. Responding to a telegram from the Democratic national chairman, asserting that Governor Wilson unquestionably was elected, the Democratic candidate sent a dispatch to Mr. McCombs as follows: "I deeply appreciate your telegram and wish to extend to you, and the members of the campaign committee, my warm congratulations on the part you have played in the organization and conduct of a campaign fought out upon essential issues. "A great cause has triumphed. Every Democrat, every true progressive, of whatever allegiance, must now lend his full force and enthusiasm to the fulfillment of the people's hope, the establishment of the people's right, so that justice and progress may go hand in hand." This was Governor Wilson's first utterance of a public character following his receipt of the reports that he had been elected.

Oyster Bay, Nov. 6.—Shortly before midnight Colonel Roosevelt made the following statement: "The American people by a great plurality have decided in favor of Mr. Wilson and the Democratic party. Like all good citizens, I accept the result with entire good humor and contentment. As for the Progressive cause, I can only repeat what I have already so many times said: The fate of the leader for the time being is of little consequence, but the cause itself must in the end triumph, for its triumph is essential to the well being of the American people." At the same time he issued his state- T. W. Colonel Roosevelt. ment Colonel Roosevelt sent the following telegram to Governor Wilson: "The American people by a great plurality have conferred upon you the highest honor in their gift. I congratulate you thereon." Colonel Roosevelt said he would make no further statement than the brief one he issued just before 12 o'clock. He smilingly declined to answer interrogations. He was seemingly in the best of spirits and not at all perturbed over the failure of the Progressives to win this election. Salt Lake. President Taft has carried Utah by a good majority over Wilson. THE GOVERNOR'S VICTORY GROWS SURE OF 415 ELECTORS; ROOSE VELT RECEIVES 106 AND TAFT 12. WYOMING FOR WILSON MINNESOTA FOR ROOSEVELT—RECORD DEMOCRATIC PLURALITY IN NEW YORK. Western Newspaper Union News Service. Net Results of Tuesday's Election. The Democrats will control the United States senate, with 49 or 50 of the 96 members. The Democrats will have 69 more than a majority of the house, with 290 out of the 435 members. Wilson is likely to have over 400 electoral votes. If Roosevelt carries Minnesota and Illinois it will give him six states, Wilson thirty-nine and Taft three. New York, Nov. 7.—Returns seem to assure Wilson and Marshall of 400 votes in the electoral college. Iowa and Kansas, which were in the "doubtful" column during the day, seemed almost sure last night to swell the Democratic total in the final alignment of states. Possibilities of a further gain remained for Wilson through the accession of Wyoming, where he led Taft by a small margin, with one-third of the vote tabulated. Late figures from South Dakota tended to assure the state for Roosevelt, the Progressive candidate leading by a fair margin and maintaining his lead fairly well on added returns. Late Minnesota returns give the lead to Roosevelt. The total of the Republican electoral column apparently was fixed at the 12 votes of Idaho, Utah and Vermont, but the footing of the Wilson and Roosevelt columns flickered alternately during the afternoon and night as late returns from Iowa, Kansas, Minnesota, South Dakota and Wyoming gave indications of change from the results accepted Tuesday night. Estimates based on complete results from Chicago and half of the counties outside of the city indicated that Roosevelt's plurality over Wilson might be almost, if not entirely, overcome. Colonel Roosevelt's plurality of 38,000 in Cook county was reduced to less than 10,000 by Wilson pluralities in the state and complete figures had not been received from nearly fifty counties in the southern part of the state. A Wilson plurality of practically an even 200,000 votes over Taft, a Taft lead of 60,000 over Roosevelt, and a similar alignment of parties in the gubernatorial vote is the result of the election in New York state, so far as confirmed by nearly complete returns. Charles Boeschenstein, Democratic national committeeman from Illinois, after studying reports received during the night, said Governor Wilson had carried Illinois. He said his reports indicated large pluralities for Wilson in counties not yet tabulated. The defeat of William B. McKinley, Republican, for congress in the Nineteenth Illinois district, seems certain. McKinley managed Taft's pre-convention campaign. In the general wave of Democratic success the party appears to have won the most substantial control it ever had of the legislature. With complete figures from 82 of the 99 counties of Iowa, Woodrow Wilson has a plurality of 22,616 over Roosevelt. George W. Clarke of Adel (Republican) is leading for governor by a small plurality. Charles Rawson, chairman of the Republican committee, claims Clarke's election by 7,000. Practically complete returns from 63 of the 115 counties in Kansas give Wilson a plurality of 10,000. The state Democratic ticket also made big gains in the returns received yesterday and George H. Hodges. Democratic candidate for governor, had a lead of 2,500 over Arthur Capper, Republican. Governor Stubbs, Republican, admitted that he had been defeated by William H. Thompson, Democrat, for the United States Senate. The Democratic presidential plurality is the largest New York state has ever given that party, and it is the first time the voters outside of the metropolitan district have given a Democratic presidential candidate a plurality. The totals follow: For President—Wilson, 649,006; Taft, 477,274; Roosevelt, 381,000. Wilson's plurality, 200,792. For Governor—Sulzer (Democrat), 649,806; Hedges (Republican), 444,682; Straus (Progressive), 391,663. Sulzer's plurality, 205,124. New York City gave Wilson a plurality of 124,688 over Roosevelt, who was second in the city. 15.000 Rally Around Flag.

President Taft issued the following statement from his brother's home in Cincinnati, the day after the election: "The returns insure the election of Governor Wilson to the presidency. This means an early change in the economic policy of the government, in reference to the tariff. If this change can be made without halting prosperity, I sincerely hope it may be. "The vote for Mr. Roosevelt, the Third Party candidate, and for Mr. Debs, the Socialist candidate, is a warning that their propaganda in favor of fundamental changes in our constitutional representative government has formidable support. "While the experiment of a change in the tariff is being carried out by the Democratic administration, it behooves Republicans to gather again to the party standard and pledge anew their faith in their party's principles and to organize again to defend the constitutional government handed down to us by our fathers." "We must make clear to the young men of the country, who have been weaned away from sound principles of government by promise of reforms impossible of accomplishment by mere legislation, that patriotism and common sense require them to return to a support of our constitution. "Without compromising our principles, we must convince and win back former Republicans, and we must reinforce our ranks with constitution-loving Democrats. "We favor every step of progress toward more perfect equality of opportunity and the ridding of society of injustice. But we know that all progress worth making is possible with our present form of government and that to sacrifice that which is of the highest value in our governmental structure for undefined and impossible reforms, is the wildest folly. We must face the danger with a clear knowledge of what it is. "The Republican party is equal to the task. It has had no nobler cause. Let us close ranks and march forward to do battle for the right and the true CHURCH UNITY Can all the evangelical Christian churches unite in one religious body? This has been the question of centuries. There are now in the world 700 distinct religious denominations. Can they be confederated into one body for service and ministry? This is the paramount question that is puzzling religious leaders today. That there is a closer fellowship now than formerly, no one can doubt. We all know the time when Baptist would not tolerate a Methodist in their pulpit and vica versa, but that day is past, never to return, we hope. Two great organizations within the church and two without it are object lessons of how such a unity can and may be affected. First—The Christian Endeavor Society where young people from several denominations unite for organized effort; and, second, the county, state, national and international Sunday School conventions show how such an effort could be brought about without friction. The organizations without the church are the Y. M. C. A. and Woman's Christian Temperance Union. Both of these are a combination of church efforts outside of all denominational lines, not for the study of doctrines which cannot be harmonized, but on the plane of wide and practical sympathy as outlined on the Jericho road when the good Samaritan heeded the call—not of one of his own nationality or creed, but of stricken humanity. Such a federation would be one of the best means also of breaking down race prejudice as well as creed or doctrinal prejudice, and hasten forward the grand doctrine of "The brotherhood of Man," besides eliminating small churches with incompetent preachers and poor salaries. Careless Burglar. A strong movement is on foot to make advertising truthful, one of the starling results being that a merchant offers "cracked good patent leather shoes at three dollars a pair." —Toronto Mail and Empire. An absent-minded burglar, having gained entrance to a Philadelphia residence and gathered all the family jewelry, slipped everything into his pockets. Then, discovering a brand new suit of clothes, he changed his raiment and left the house, forgetting to empty the pockets of his old suit. It is difficult for the careless man to attain a very high degree of efficiency in any line of endeavor.—Boston Globe. It is a curious fact that in the Basha's stands, which were settled more than two hundred years ago by Londoners, the Cockney dialect is as strong as it is in Cheapside. Should Have Men as Well as Women By COL. M. A. ALDRICH, Chicago IN ITS original sense the word "mash" probably came into our language from the German "maischen," through the intermediary of the old English "mischen," our "mix" also being derived from the latter spelling. Responsibility for the use of "masher" in its now widely accepted and disreputable significance is traceable to London Punch, which originally used it, in a supposedly humorous way, as synonymous with "a charmer of women." One of the best definitions of "mash" in its original meaning is given by Webster as "to reduce to a soft, pulpy state." Oddly enough, though properly enough, that definition exactly fits the condition of most of the chumps, male and female, who carry on the silly and criminal vocation against which all decent sentiment protests and police regulations are carried into effect, sometimes. Out in Los Angeles there has been an imitation of the occasional practice in some other places of employing an "official masher" to decoy into the hands of the police some of the specimens of humanity who wear pantaloons and pose as men while acting the part of nondescript mixtures of idiocy and villainy endeavoring to force their attentions upon women and girls. Something of this kind is reported in Chicago. Such an employment would not seem to appeal to the admiration or enlist the service of many self-respecting women or girls. But, however that may be, the scoundrel who enlists in the army of mashers without brains enough to discriminate between willing, waiting victims of his idiotic wiles and decent girls and women is entitled to "all that's coming to him" in police cell or institution for the feeble-minded—or both. If, however, the decoying business is to be conducted on a really meritorious system, why not send out a squad of sensible men—if such could be enlisted in the service—to "round up" a few hundred of the women and girls who haunt some of the hotel lobbies, stand in hallways, occupy vantage positions for ogling on street corners, leer out from windows, and otherwise carry on their share of the community's "mashing" business? That business is not confined to one sex. What is sauce for the gander should be proper garnishment for the goose. As one who supremely respects womanhood and who looks forward to a new and blessed era for humanity through woman's emancipation, I would like to say a word in defense of the so-called "suggestive" garments. Tight Fitting Skirts Worn by Women By Alex Gustafson, St. Louis, Mo. Worn by Women By Alex Gustafson, St. Louis, Mo. To me it seems almost incredible that ordinarily decent, respectable, God-fearing men should have the hardihood to denounce all women who wear such skirts as wantons, when surely everybody knows that multitudes of as good and modest women as can be found anywhere use these tight-fitting Women's overgrown baby skirts were far more suggestive to weak, prurient-minded men than the modern tight-fitting skirt. But they were not denounced in any brutal or ferocious manner. Why? Not because they were considered more free from suggestion than the modern skirt, but because they gave no indication that woman intended to free herself from male tutelage. That is the suggestion in the tight-fitting skirt which so terribly scandalizes women in the eye of her master. The clumsy, cumbersome, ungainly skirts worn by woman in the past gave man a tremendous physical and psychological advantage over her. So long as she wore such garments he need not fear losing his mastery over her, and he might humor her by granting her education, access to industries and professions and even limited powers of voting. But when woman sets to work to revolutionize her dress, as she now is doing, then he knows that she is, indeed, earnest to break all her immemorial bonds of servitude. No wonder he cries, in the name of outraged morality: "Beware!" Well, whatever is to come, of one thing we may be sure—the modern American woman has outgrown her swaddling clothes and will never put them on again. And that means that bodily she intends to become as free as man. In due time after she has taught man a much needed lesson in the rudiments of self-control, respect for woman and in true morality, she will devise a garment gracefully suitable to her form, which will leave all her bodily organs and movements free and unimpeded, as the Creator intended they should be. Empty Cradle World's Greatest Peril By Prof. George Barr Hope University of Edinburgh Malthus, the renowned writer on political economy, had mankind badly disturbed in his own day and for a much later period by his plausible theory that the human race would ultimately starve to death. Malthus laid down the doctrine that the earth's population would increase much faster than the means of subsistence, and he predicted a time of universal famine. He argued well, according to his lights, but he took no account of the increased productivity of the soil through scientific methods of cultivation, nor of the reclamation of vast areas of land, whether by drainage of irrigation. Malthus reasoned that it would be necessary to limit the procreation of the race to avert the greater evil of extinction through the overpopulation of productive areas, and for a long time his theories were accepted. Since his time a vast deal of water has flowed under the bridge, and today instead of a congestion of humanity the greatest peril that confronts civilized nation is the empty cradle. Instead of multiplying, the leading races show an ever-diminishing birth rate. Every one knows what is happening in France through the unwillingness of its married couples to rear more than one or two children, a condition which, if uncorrected, will lead to the certain downfall of a great and brilliant race. In England, Ireland and Scotland fewer and fewer children come to the homes of the very class that is best able to care for them, and even in Germany, that once boasted of its prolific mothers, the same tendency to self-effacement, though their statemen are full of dreams of expansion, oblivious of the futility of wider dominions if the material to fill them is wanting.

The quarterly reports rendered on Monday evening showed the several departments of the church to be in a healthful condition and that real progress is being made. Brother S. B. F. Lowe, having been granted exhorter's license, delivered his trial exhortation Wednesday evening at the prayer service. His effort attracted an increased audience to our mid-week service. We are very grateful to Revs. Wallace and Bray and their congregations for their unstinted support given us in our Sunday service. Rev. Ward's first visit to Shorter in his new capacity was profitable and satisfying, and it is freely predicted that he will be no less successful and popular here as presiding elder than he was as pastor. The newly elected board of trustees of Shorter enjoys the confidence of the church, and will doubtless have the hearty co-operation of the membership. The following persons comprise the board: Westly Lysons, Wm. O. Bryant, E. S. Snadon, G. H. Eubank, Capt. Thos. Campbell, D. Letcher, U. G. Brown, Jesse Nelson and J. F. Waldon. NOTICE. The negro year book can be bought at the Colorado Statesman's office, 1824 Curtis street, room 25 or of J. H. Doniphan, 1721 Marion street. A card will meet with an immediate response. SCOTT M. E. CHURCH NOTES. Sermon topics for tomorrow: "Not Far From the Kingdom," and "Praying For a Revival." Last Sunday evening Dr. J. R. Rader spoke to a very appreciative audience. Tonight at the residence of Mrs. Ella Owens, 1402 East Twenty-fourth avenue, there will be given an entertainment for the benefit of the Blues. Our mortgage indebtedness now is only $1,387. The official board paid $148.00 on principal and interest recently. The next payment will be January, 1913. We congratulate a faithful management for their loyalty in reducing the indebtedness. Mrs. Jennie Pierson is improving so rapidly that she was brought home from the hospital this week. Mrs. Lillian Dorsey is on the sick list this week. We wish her a speedy recovery. Mrs. Rosa Bly is at her post of duty in Scott's, after an absence of three years in Wyoming. The parsonage committee will make some needed repairs on the parsonage. Mrs. Anna McPherson is the chairman of this important committee. Mrs. Lula Berry will leave soon for the south. Her home is in Little Rock, Ark. Mrs. Anna Johns is now in Atlanta, Ga, visiting her sister, Mrs. Dr. Hubbard. She is expected home soon. All forces will concentrate their efforts on the Thanksgiving dinner and bazaar. This is to be the greatest turkey dinner yet. The worthy poor and aged will be served free. Mrs. Henretta Allen lead the League last Sunday evening. The topic for Sunday evening will be "The Ungathered Harvest." John 4:35; Matt 9:36-38. Four loyal Scotts gave $10 each; one $15, and two $5 each in the recent mortgage paying rally. Several gave $1 each and smaller amounts, according to their ability. The Stewards will give a rally on the third Sunday in this month to pay up the pastor in full. The Stewards are three weeks behind. The coal committee will give a rally on the fourth Sunday in December. At this time each member will be asked to contribute one dollar. In memory of Mrs. J. S. Simonton, who departed this life November 12, 1911. We are sorely grieved at the early fading of flowers. We were compelled to give up one we loved so well. Our sister is gone, but not forgotten. We shall meet on the beautiful shore, where tears and parting will be no more. HUSBAND, MOTHER AND SISTERS AND BROTHERS. Nicely modern furnished rooms for rent at 2222 Curtis street.

JAPS WILL EAT FROGS' LEGS Student Returning Home From Eastern College Takes Jumpers Along for Breeding Purposes. Storrs, Conn.—Kemao Inonya, a Japanese student who has just received his diploma from the Connecticut Agricultural college here, is on his way back to Japan, carrying with him, carefully crated, a dozen of the largest and best specimens of bull frogs he has been able to gather from the ponds in the surrounding country. It is his intention to use them in the propagation of the species in his native land, where the frogs are small and not edible. Four-Year-Old Fresh Egg. Williamsport, Pa.—Harry Burns of Hornell, N. X., worked in a cold storage plant in this city four years back. One day he took an indelible pencil and wrote in small letters his name, address and the year "1907" on an egg. Burns has since returned to Hornell to live. The other day he went to market and bought a dozen "strictly fresh" eggs and paid the extra price. Among them he discovered the identical egg bearing his name, address and date of four years ago. The grocer says he "bought them for strictly fresh eggs." Total Loss. "I hear your store burned down last night," said the casual acquaintance. "I wish it had," replied the unfortunate merchant; "but it didn't; it burned up. The fire started in the basement."—Catholic Standard and Times. Suggestions for the Table That Will Appeal to the Majority of Those Assembled. Beat up one egg, add a little salt rec pepper and grated nutmeg, and enough sifted flour to make a stiff dough. Knead on a floured baking board until smooth and elastic. Roll cut as thin as a wafer, and cut with a noodle cutter; then cook in boiling salted water or soup stock for 20 minutes. Serve hot in soups. This paste may be spread on the bottom of inverted dripping pans and baked in a hot oven. Crease before removing from the pan. Calf's Brains with Eggs—Soak one calf's brain in salted water, wash it well and remove the veins. Then blanch it, and drain and chop it small. Melt one heaping tablespoonful of butter in a saucepan; when hot add four well-beaten eggs, the calf's brains and seasoning of salt, pepper and paprika. Now add one tablespoonful of cream and cook for five minutes, stirring all the time. Serve with fingers of toasted bread. Making Orange Cream Budding.—Dissolve two heaping tablespoonfuls of powdered gelatine in one cupful of boiling water, then add two cupfuls of sugar, two cupfuls of strained orange juice and the yolks of three eggs. Beat all well together, then add two cupfuls of whipped cream, pour into a wet mold and turn out when firm. Serve with stewed fruit. Mushrooms and Macaroni.—Heat half a cupful of cream or milk in the chafing dish; add two heaping tablespoonsful of butter, half a cupful of chopped canned mushrooms, one cupful of cold boiled macaroni and four well-beaten eggs. Stir over boiling water for ten minutes and season to taste with salt, pepper and grated nutmeg. MAKES A GOOD BOILED DISH "Pepper Pot" May Be Recommended as a Substantial Feature for the Dinner. Use either a knuckle of veal or a fowl or the carcass of a fowl boiled with two pounds of honeycomb and two pounds of plain tripe. Wash the cleaned tripe thoroughly, scald it, bring it to a boil and wash in cold water. Put it into the soup-kettle with the other meat. Add four quarts of cold water, bring slowly to a boil and simmer for six hours or until the tripe is tender. When tripe is tender remove and strain the stock. Set both away to cool quickly. An hour before dinner the next day cut the tripe into squares and the meat into dice. Pare four potatoes and cut them into blocks; then make 50 small suet balls. (To do this, chop a cupful of suet, adding gradually a cupful of flour and a half teaspoon of salt. Add slowly sufficient water to molsten; do not make them wet. Dust the hands with flour and roll the mixture quickly into balls the size of small marbles.) Skim the stock, put it into a kettle, add chilies, onions, a table-spoonful of thyme, of salt and a salt-spoonful of celery seed. Boil for ten minutes, add potato blocks, bring again to a boil, add tripe, the meat dice and the suet balls. Cover and boil for 15 minutes. Serve hot without breaking potatoes.—Exchange. Old Apple Pudding. Butter the edge and inside of a two-quart pan—any kind will do—fill it two-thirds full of tart apples, cut in quarters; add one-half cup of water, cover with a crust made of one pint of flour, two teaspoonfuls of baking powder and one-half teaspoonful of salt wet with a scant cup of milk just stiff enough to roll out, cover closely and cook on the top of the stove for one-half hour. Put a trivet of some kind under to keep the apple from burning. Then put into the oven to brown. When done, put a large plate on top of the pan, turn it upside down with crust on bottom, apples on top. Cut it the same as a pie and serve with lemon sauce. Halifax Soup. Put a good meat bone on at 6 o'clock and boil until 11, in about three quarts of water. Skim occasionally the impurities which arise. Then put in one-falf dozen tomatoes, three carrots, one onion and four Irish potatoes, all chopped fine. Season with salt and pepper to taste. When vegetables are done, strain the soup, replace on fire. Allow it to boll up, then thicken with a little flour. Before sending to the table drop in a few parsley leaves. Small Onions Pickled. The outef covering of the onions is removed, and then thyе should be packed into clean, dry glass bottles and covered with cold vinegar, adding the usual pickling spices, whole. The bottles should be filled brimming full, and then be sealed down. Onions pickled this way are very firm and have a fine flavor, but it is said they do not keep as well as the boiled pickles. They will keep during the winter, anyway. It might be well, however, to use them up first. Tipsey Bread. Cut a French roll into thin slices and pare off the crusts, leaving it a nice, round shape. Spread raspberry, strawberry, or currant jam over each slice and pile them one on the other in a glass dish. Pour over them as much sherry as the bread will absorb. Ornament it around with blanched almonds cut in very fine strips and stick them also on top. Pour a custard around and serve. Sufficient for four five persons. What Your Tailor? COPYRIGHT BY ED. V.

AFRO-AMERICAN CULLINGS Memphis, the county seat of Shelby county, Tennessee, founded in 1826 and chartered as a city in 1849, called the Bluff City, 109 miles west of Nashville, is one of the chief commercial cities of the south and one of the most important cotton markets in the United States. The growth of this city, both in population and commerce, has been remarkable. The population has grown from less than 9,000 in 1850, to 131,105 in 1910. There are only five cities in the United States that have larger negro populations than Memphis. The last census shows negro population in six cities as follows: Washington, D.C., 94,446; New York, 91,702; New Orleans, 89,262; Baltimore, 84,749; Philadelphia, 84,459; Memphis, 52,441. There are in Shelby county, however, between 90,000 and 100,000. The new union depot which cost five million dollars, with equal accommodations for both races, the imposing sky-scrapers, the beautifully shaded and paved streets, the costly residences, the 1,000 acres of lovely public parks, the junction of several great railroads, the trolley cars threading the avenues in every direction, the numerous factories, public buildings, costly and spacious churches, add to the charm of this most wonderful southern city, situated on the great "Father of Waters." The spirit of progress is contagious. The colored people of this city have caught the spirit. Many of them have made good. They have been helped and encouraged by their white neighbors. This is very gratifying. As evidence of the material advancement, it is interesting to note that the value of the output of the various manufacturing establishments in Memphis has grown from a little more than one and a half million dollars in 1850 to over thirty million dollars in 1912, an increase of two thousand per cent. The negro's best friends are found in the south. Here is an instance: In Judge Miller's court room the other day a negro youth was tried on the charge of theft. His employer, a well-known Dallas woman who is prominent in social circles, believed him innocent. The evidence was entirely circumstantial. She saw that the boy had a good lawyer and she appeared as a witness in his behalf. The jury heard her story and promptly acquitted the negro, for the 12 men were fair-minded southernners who believe in giving the negro with a good record the benefit of the doubt. There is no blind prejudice against the black in the south. There is no race problem here, because the south is not careless in its social relations. The negro finds his real haven of refuge in Dixieland where he can always get a job, a square meal and a square deal. He knows the people are not his pretended friends when he tries to do right, and that they will fight for him when he is unjustly treated—Dallas Times-Herald. Christian philosophy was designed from the beginning to keep the children of the woman and the sons of the man in their proper relation to one another in the home, the church and the state, so that the human race might be perpetuated, as the races before the Christian era were not. The thoughtful women of the negro race should study this matter. What the race needs are men, and it can't have them if the negro women follow their white sisters out of the home and family making into the world of affairs where they must cease to be women and cannot be men—New York Age. The ancient Guild of Spectacle Makers is numerically one of the strongest of London companies. Its charter dates from the year 1629, and though the exact date of its origin is lost, there is ample evidence that the calling of spectacle maker was extensively followed at a very early date. An old book of 1563 mentions the spectacle makers among other traders, and the biography of Carl Zeno, an illustrious Venetian, who died in 1418, mentions that even at the age of eighty-four he needed no artificial aids to his sight. So presumably spectacles were common in Italy five centuries ago. At Seattle Doctor Crichton has ordered the use of Puget sound sea water to lay the dust and flush the streets. "Salt water is one of the best germicides in the world," says Doctor Crichton. "Sea water contains several grains of chloride of sodium to the gallon, and within a few days the city's streets will become white with sodium chloride and the action of the sun's ray" on this will produce chloride gas, one of the very best disinfectants known to science." The Philadelphia Traction company has been experimenting with women conductors, in order to minimize the trouble it has with men and to reduce the cost of operating expenses. If the experiment succeeds the men conductors will have to go, as the ticket sellers have gone, and the motormen will be in danger of losing their jobs. After a woman has been a trolley car conductor for a month who would have her for a wife? The ages of woman masculinity and rule have always been the death ages of man femininity and rule. The average Chinaman knows how to keep silent when everybody else is talking. The average negro knows how to talk when everybody else is keeping silent. The two attitudes are not the same. The Chinaman learns a great deal by keeping his mouth shut and the negro forgets a great deal by keeping his mouth open. What a man learns and what a man forgets are not the same. Dr. Sun-Yat-Sen, who did so much to make the Chinese Republic possible, and was its provisional president, has been silent for months while the press of the world was trying to make it appear that the Chinese republic was on the verge of disruption because Dr. Sen and President Yuan Shikal were at loggerheads over everything. Dr. Sen now breaks his silence in a Nankin interview to the New York Sun to declare that, personally, his relations with the president are cordial, and that their differences as to public policy and questions are only such as exist between statesmen in all countries who work together for the common welfare. He says: "I believe I can safely say that upon one matter of first importance all the leaders in China are of one mind: The best good of the country. As to how this may be attained is quite another matter, but we are all striving and working for the meritorious and noble end." No one thinks of a civil war in the United States simply because Mr. Taft, Mr. Wilson and Mr. Roosevelt do not agree upon matters of public policy. Each of these gentiemen is certainly a true American and a patriot of a very high order. Yet there are—if my knowledge of American affairs is worthy—many great and vital issues upon which they disagree totally. May it not be so in China?—New York Age. "Negro Year Book"—whoever heard of such a thing? "Annual Encyclopedia of the Negro"—whoever thought of devoting a whole volume of a year book and encyclopedia to any single race of people? Here it is, however, and it comes from Tuskegee. No one claims to have shown originality in thinking of it. It bears the name of Monroe N. Work, "In charge of research and records." Out of these records, at first only of the students and graduates of Tuskegee, and then of the negro population, this first of all race books seems to have grown. Behind a desk of the Chicago Theological seminary 14 years ago a young negro student, Work by name, sat for three years. With plodding persistence he studied and struggled his way through to graduation. Ever loyal to his race, he eagerly learned all he could from them and the whites how to help them help themselves. He began at the beginning in looking about him here in Chicago, to find out what the actual conditions of his people were. In the south he continued to look for facts on which to base the means and plans which Tuskegee and other schools for life and work were devising and carrying out. And now from his card catalogue of "case records" and race facts comes this new and valuable attempt to register the progress of a race in this "Negro Year Book and Annual Encyclopedia." Although it is but a beginning, it is creditable enough to him and his people to mark an epoch in their hostory.—Tuskegee Student. A shy man will imitate the tactics of his older brother and wonder if that fellow meets with the same coolness. Five hundred Cuban negroes captured in the late uprising in the province of Oriente have been rounded np in the jails of Havana for safe keeping, as the other jails are already overcrowded. The Latin people like to play at revolution, and those who succeed fare sumptuously for a season, while those who fail, if captured, are very sure of having their heads cut off. If the Latin-American people should spend one-half the time in building up their governments that they do in striving to tear them down they would be a great and progressive people. For example, Mexico has lost in the past twelve months of internecine war what she had gained in thirty years of domestic peace. President Diaz ruled with a strong hand for a long period of years, but under him Mexico was prosperous at home and had abundant credit abroad. If America's annual candy supply were loaded on one train there would be over 8,000 trucks full of boxes, buckets and glass jars. This load of sweetmeats for the sweet tooth of the American girls costs the consumers about $125,000,000 every year. The woman's work is essentially in the home. The home is the foundation upon which the Christian church and state are built. Destroy the Christian home by unsexing woman in her work and manners as wife and mother and daughter, and the underworld, the wolves and swine of the social order will rise up and sweep the Christian church and state from the map of the world. What then? The answer is to be found in the death of Egypt, Babylon, Carthage, Greece and Rome before the Christian era. Uncle Sam Ready to Pave Way to Big Profit. Tillers of the Soil Can Double Their Incomes If They Are Willing to Act on Advice From the Government Experts. Washington.—"We can show the average farmer how to double his income without requiring him to do things differently from the way in which he now does them and without relatively increasing his operating expenses," was a declaration made by Prof. Wm. J. Spillman, chief of the office of farm management, department of agriculture, who said, in continuance: "The average farmer is not a good manager. In order to double his income it is only necessary for him to utilize his present equipment to the best possible advantage. All farmers as a rule work hard and are entitled to a fair return for their toll. The average farmer does not get anything like a fair return. This is largely due to lack of management and planning. "For example, there are two farms in New York state near Elmira. They are the same size and the same types of farming obtain on both. At the end of a year's work one of these farms showed a net profit of $131 after paying 5 per cent. on the invested capital. The other farm showed a net profit of $1,788. "This wide difference seems almost unbelievable. But it is true, nevertheless. Furthermore, the two farms adjoin, the land is practically identical. In fact, the farmer who managed to show a net balance after a year's work of only $131 harvested heavier yields of only some crops than did his neighbor who showed so much larger a profit. The farmer who made the small profit is now operating on a plan mapped out for him by an expert of this office. Ultimately he may make a larger profit than his more successful neighbor, because some of his yields have been larger. His farm was wholly lacking in balance. He was attempting to grow too much of one crop and not enough of another. "One of the most important things is to so organize the work that it will be evenly distributed throughout the entire year and be a money-maker every day instead of only occasionally. This saves waste at many unsuspected points. "If the farmer will permit our competent experts to map out his work, showing him how much of this, that or the other crop he can raise to best advantage, how much stock he needs to do the work and for market purposes, and will follow instructions, the results will come. He can largely increase his income without increasing his expenses perceptibly, and can go right on farming the way he has for years, only adopting our cropping system in lieu of the one he has been following. "We now have seven experts doing co-operative work in as many counties in New York state, and will have two more at work before the close of the year. At present farm management experts are at work in Broome, Chemung, Herkimer, Jefferson, Oneida, St. Lawrence and Tompkins counties. We have not finally determined where the other two men will be placed. They very likely will be put to work in counties lying along the right of way of the Lackawanna railroad, which also is co-operating with the office by paying one-third of the expenses of experts in two counties. "We welcome this kind of co-operation, because it enables us to make our money stretch one-third further. The railroad, of course, expects to get a return on its investment through hauling increased yields of various crops due to better farming. The Lackawanna also is co-operating with us in one New Jersey county. "There are many more requests for help from New York counties with its present appropriation. Under the plan of co-operation with counties, the government stands one-half the expense of the expert and the people of the county the other half. Where a railroad also co-operates, the expense is divided into three parts." Rainmaker Kept Secret On the Aegean island of Santorini (Thera) a modern traveler encountered a rainkaker a few years ago. She was a very old woman, seated on the extreme edge of the harbor cliff, and it appeared that the islanders had paid her in advance for her present effort at rainmaking, although once she had so disappointed them that they tried to burn her house over her head. The traveler also paid a trifle to her for rain and before he left her thunder was heard and more rain than he wanted followed. The old woman would not give away the formula, but admitted that she caused the rain, not by her own virtue, but because she knew "the god above and the god below." Safe. Nearly all of the children in the neighborhood had been ill with chicken pox, and one morning when they were able to play about again, Julia, aged four, came running in to her mother and burst out excitedly: "Oh, mother, the Smith children have got something else, but brother says we can't catch it." "Well, what is it they have?" the mother asked. "It's pigeon toes," she replied.—Mother's Magazine. TYPHOID PREVENTIVE IMPROVED Remarkable results are being obtained by the use of the new typhoid fever preventive, "tynoid prophylactic," according to Brigadier General Robert H. Evans, U. S. A., chief of the division of militia affairs. The unpleasant after effects of the old-fashioned vaccination are no longer painless ones, and out of 40,000 soldiers of the regular army that have taken the treatment the only after effects have been an occasional headache, lasting a few hours, and once or twice a slight fever has resulted, but has disappeared within on hour or two. In the army and navy the treatment now is compulsory, and the medical corps of the army has had extra proof of the efficacy of the treatment. The prophylactic treatment is not compulsory in the national guard, but it is administered to the members who may desire it. Brigadier General Evans says that about one-third of the members of the national guard of the District of Columbia, both officers and men, are voluntarily taking the treatment. He has a notion that it would be a good thing for the militiamen of other states. OLD SOL IN BAD. "Excessive sunlight may be responsible for American nervousness, as sunlight is a nerve stimulant," said Dr. Gardner C. Basset of the psychological department of Johns Hopkins in a lecture at the exhibition of hygiene and demography. "But," he added, "how sunlight affects mental activity is still a subject for investigation." Mental work, according to Dr. Basset, can be done more effectively when one is lying down. "The vertical posture is better for muscular work, the horizontal for mental," he said. "In thinking many people prefer a semi-reclining posture, as in a Morris chair with the feet elevated." Mouth breathing, Dr. Basset asserted, affects a person's memory injuriously. The mouth breathe is also slower and less accurate in adding figures than is the nose breathe. "Don't allow your child to become too solemn," said Dr. Basset. "Undue seriousness is likely to result in adolescent insanity." "The normal person," he added a moment later, "is seldom awake in every part. We sleep in sections. Remember that inattention represents the rest of the nervous system." UNIQUE RAILROAD SYSTEM. The United States senate is building its own railroad system. Work was started on the project the other day, and when the solons who hold forth in the upper branch of congress come back to resume their duties in December they will be able to ride right from their offices in the senate office building to the capitol, where elevators will whisk them to whatever floor they wish to go. A memorial system is being installed in the tunnel leading from the office building to the capitol, and will be a double-tracked, sure-enough rapid-transit line about 500 feet in length. The cars will be operated by electricity, but owing to restrictions of space they will not be of Pullman proportions, and it is possible that senators who are corpulent in girth may find it convenient to walk. HIS CONSCIENCE RELIEVED. After giving personal attention to the letter of a Decorah (Iowa) man who desired to ease his mind by paying the United States two cents, Secretary of the Treasury MacVeagh the other day removed the minimum limit of five cents on "conscience fund" contributions. The letter read: "Onkel Sam, United States Treasury "Hereby I sent 2 cents which I owe by mistake. I were sending a little article with mall and put a slip of writing in with after sum time i thought i did not do right and regret, so excuse me." PREMIUMS FOR INVENTIVE EMPLOYEES. Postmaster General Hitchcock has created a commission to consider the merits of mechanical and labor-saving devices invented by postal employees and submitted by them for use in the postal service. On the recommendation of Mr. Hitchcock, congress recently appropriated $10,000 to be paid in his discretion as rewards to postal employees whose inventions may be adopted. Where Women Vote Where Women Vote. "Women vote in your state, don't they?" "Yes." "How does it work out?" "First rate. My wife controls twenty-two votes." "Twenty-two?" "Yes. She can influence the twenty-cne women of her whist club to vote just as she pleases." "You said she controlled twenty-two votes. Where does she get the twenty-second?" "From me."—Cleveland Plain Dealer. Serial Story. Ascum—Do you remember the night I had to take you home from the club in a cab and— Nagget—Yes, indeed.

WILSON, SON OF VIRGINIA LEADER; MADE GOOD IN BATTLE OF LIFE First President Born South of Mason and Dixon Line Since Civil War; Scotch-Irish Parentage; Has Honors and Degrees. WOODROW WILSON Western Newspaper Union News Service. New York, Nov. 5.—Woodrow Wilson, President-elect, is the first man born south of the Mason and Dixon line to be elected to that office since the Civil War. He was born at Staunton, Va., December 28, 1856, and will be the twenty-eighth President. He was a success as president of Princeton. He reorganized the faculty and Princeton advanced materially during his presidency. Then came his advent into politics. New Jersey was in the grip of a political machine. The eyes of the party leaders fell on Wilson. "We'll elect him," they said, "and then control him." They succeeded in the former, but made a failure of the latter. Two weeks after his inauguration, Governor Wilson announced he was in favor of direct primaries. And he obtained them in a political battle in which the men who had helped WOODRO elect him were his chief adversaries. A coterie of young men, one of them a graduate of Princeton, made up their minds that in the New Jersey governor there was the material for a President. "Would he make the fight?" That he did is now a matter of history. With managers unskilled in old-time political methods, they went to the floor of the memorable Baltimore convention with new ideas. This new brand of politics proved successful—Wilson was nominated and elected. Woodrow Wilson is of Scotch-Irish extraction. His paternal grandfather was Judge James Wilson, who came to this country in 1807. He settled in Philadelphia and became a member of the staff of William Duanes Aurora. He married Anne Adams, an Irish girl, who came here on the same vessel with him. They soon went to Ohio, finally settling in Steubenville, where he established the Western Herald. He then started the Pennsylvania Advocate, in Pittsburg. He had four sons, the youngest of whom was Joseph Ruggles Wilson, father of the President-elect. Joseph R. Wilson married Janet Woodrow, at Chillicothe, Ohio, June 7, 1849. Her father was a Presbyterian minister who came to America in 1836. Joseph R. Wilson became a professor of rhetoric for a short time in Jefferson college and later professor of chemistry in the Hampden Sydney college in Virginia. For a short time the Wilsons lived in Staunton, Va., where Joseph R. Wilson had been called as a pastor. He took his wife and two daughters with him. In Christmas week of the following year the President-elect was born. In 1858 the family moved to Augusta, Ga., and lived there continuously until it was time for Thomas Woodrow to go to college. Woodrow Wilson remembers dimly the Civil War. One event that stands out strongly in his memory, however, is the view he had of Jefferson Davis, then a prisoner, riding by on a London.—A late dispatch from Constantinople received from the military correspondent of, the London Daily Chronicle gives a harrowing picture of the scenes enacted when the routed remnants of Nazim Pasha's army reached Rodosto. "They arrived," he says, "famished and weary, but full of hate against the 'infidel.'" Scenes of horrow followed. The town was given up to massacre, outrage and pillage. It was set afire in seven places and children were hurled into the raging flames. horse on his way to Fortress Monroe. The family moved to Columbia, S. C., in 1870. In 1873 the son was sent to Davidson college at Davidson, N. C., where he studied and took a prominent part in athletics. He entered Princeton in 1875 as a member of Class 79. When he was graduated he stood forty-first in a class of 122. He was editor of the Princetonian and an active member of the American Whig Debating Society. He studied law in the University of Virginia, was admitted to the bar in 1882 and went to Atlanta, Ga., to practice. While he was waiting for his clients he began to write "Constitutional Government," a book which later became famous. In 1883 Governor Wilson met Miss Ellen Louise Axson at the home of her cousin in Rome, Ga. Soon afterward he went to Baltimore, while Miss Axson came to New York to study art. They met frequently in the course of the young author's visits to New York W WILSON and were married June 24, 1885, in Savannah. Wilson became professor of history and political economy at Wesleyan university, Middletown, in 1888, and two years later was elected to the chair of jurisprudence and politics at Princeton. Governor Wilson's first position as an instructor, however, was at Bryn Mawr college, where he remained three years—1885-88. In 1902 he succeeded Francis Landry Patton as president of Princeton university. He came into office with decided convictions as to methods which should govern a university. By the time he had resigned in 1910 to become governor of New Jersey he had left indelible marks upon the university, most conspicuous of which is the preceptorial system of which he is the author. Among his best known literary works are "The State," "Division and Reunion," "An Old Master and Other Political Essays," "Mere Literature and Other Essays," "George Washington," "A History of the American People" and "Constitutional Government in the United States." The honorary degree of LL. D. has been conferred upon him by Lake Forest college, Rutgers college, Tulane university, Johns Hopkins university, the University of Pennsylvania, Brown university, Harvard university, Williams college and Dartmouth college. The honorary degree of Litt. D. was conferred on him by Yale university. From the time he became professor of Princeton to the present day, President-elect Wilson has been a national figure. A man of great force, it was certain that when he took the chair at Princeton there would be some who might disagree with him. This he found to be true. His administration was successful, but not without its troubles. There were many clashes between the "Wilson Way" and the "Old Way." There were some resignations from the faculty, and some long-standing friendships were severed. The President-elect's writings appeared at intervals, and he frequently lectured. Eight Hurt in Auto Collision. Colorado Springs.—Eight persons were injured, none fatally, in what is regarded in a wonderful escape from death, when an automobile running at high speed, and carrying five men, most of whom were admittedly intoxicated, crashed into another machine.

FIGURES ON STATE TICKET WILSON'S PLURALITY IS LESS THAN THAT GIVEN TO SHAFROTH. PEARCE IS ELECTED THE VOTE ON TUNNEL AND HIGHWAY BILLS STILL IN DOUBT. Western Newspaper Union News Service. Denver, Nov. 8.—Increasing Democratic pluralities outside of Denver, shown on the face of incomplete returns from thirty-two counties, offset the diminished pluralities in this city and point to the election of the entire Democratic ticket by an average lead of about 20,000 over the Republicans.

Pretty wool head covering for opera and theater wear with high peaked crown will be one of the novelties for the coming winter season. This hood is very light and in addition tokeeping the wearer warm, will keep the hair from flying about. When removed the hood can be stuffed in the muff or coat pocket. Idea Put Into Use by One Hostess Would Seem to Have Many Good Points. A good idea for the serving of tartar sauce of mayonnaise is suggested by one enterprising housewife. She cuts a lemon in half, cleans out the inside thoroughly and then fills the halves with the sauce. She serves one to each guest. When fish or salad is served the little lemon cups are placed around the edge of the platter and one is taken by each guest. In this way the sauce is kept firm and strong instead of melting into a liquid when put on a hot plate. For the home where guests are always arriving and departing there is nothing quite so nice for the windows as white cotton crepe. This may be simply hemmed or trimmed with ball fringe. For the dressers and bureaus covers of fleece-lined pique will be found very satisfactory. This may be cut into the required size and the edges buttonholed in scallops. Two sets of curtains and covers should be kept on hand, one in use and a clean one besides. FOR YOUNG GIRL. 1 An effective little house dress this, made in Nile green cashmere. It has a Magyar bodice trimmed at neck with embroidered galloon, which is shaped to fit; it is also taken down in a "V" and trims sleeves and forms walstband. The skirt is eased to this. Materials required 2½ yards cashmere 44 inches wide, 2½ yards galloon, 1½ dozen buttons. Sometimes Hard, Even for the Wisiest Mother, to Know When to Draw the Line. "Wholesome' neglect is about the best kind of care a child can receive," she said. "And my children have all had plenty of it!" The other mother was so impressed by the words of the mother of seven healthy children that she actually began to practice a little bit of "wholesome" neglect with her own ewe lamb. One day the little girl came running to her with a cut finger. Formerly that mother would have called in a physician to bind up the cut. But having decided to make use of "wholesome" neglect, she merely took out her handkerchief, wrapped it around the child's finger, dried her tears, and told her to run back and play. The mother of the seven children happened to be present. When the little girl had run away she said for the other mother, "That is a very dangerous way to treat a cut. Do you usually follow practice?" "No," replied the other mother; "I usually send for the doctor. But I am following your example, and using 'wholesome' neglect." The other mother meditated a moment, and then she said, "It is not necessary. I think, to call in a doctor when a child cuts her finger; but to bind it up with a handkerchief that has been carried even for a few hours, exposed to dust, and not to cleanse the finger thoroughly before binding it up at all, seems to me, if I may say so, to be not 'wholesome' but "unwholesome" neglect. So many persons," she went on, "confuse 'wholesome' with 'unwholesome' neglect. I don't blame them at all; it is hard always to know the one from the other!"—Home Progressive Magazine. Feather Togues. It seems as though a hat made of feathers should be light, and so the plumage toques are in actual weight; but they have a heavy look, thanks to their compactness, and this is not becoming. Nevertheless they will be very fashionable up till Christmas, and are already obtainable in many colors and shapes. Very few of them have brims, but nearly all belong to the saucepan, the pudding basin or the coal scuttle persuasion. Their only trimming is in nearly every case a little knot of brilliant feathers at the side, culled from a tropic bird. Silk Street Costumes. The vogue for silk street costumes continues, and the colored silks which made their appearance last year are to be found in greater variety and more beautiful designs this fall. Many materials are shown in piquelike weavings in black kand white, and are utilized for costumes and coats. Tartan and checked material are shown in velvet and silk as well as in the regulation woolen fabrics. There are blue-green cheeks, through which run red, blue or orange-yellow threads and large shadow squares in dark colorings flecked with various tints.
