PATRONIZE MERCHANTS WHO ADV. IN THE PEOPLE'S PAPER THE COLORADO STATESMAN THE JOURNAL OF THE WEST. LABOR SHALL BE FREE RAGE COUNTRY PARTY Drawing Color Line In London EQUALITY GROWING ciation of white women with Negroes has become so obnoxious that the proprietors of London saloons have been compelled by their white customers to bar Negroes. This has been greatly due to American visitors. In one well known saloon which is much frequented by American vaudeville artists the proprietor was forced to bar Negroes because the American customers refused to remain in the same room with the Negroes. There are now only two places in the Soho district which remain havens of refuge for the Negro. One is a saloon on a side street and the other on a broad, brightly lighted thoroughfare near the Palace Music hall, where a flag was recently flown which stated that artists of all colors and climes were welcome. The windows were also ornamented with the same notices. Some 30 or 40 Negroes are there at any hour, and all the women are white. A Negress is never seen in the place. The new "white slave act," which frightened so many men of British and Continental nationalities out of the country, has also during the last week or two affected the London Negro of this type. The law falls with the greatest severity upon a white slaver who cannot prove that he is in regular and enumerative work. VOL. XIX. PREJUDICE AGAINST NEGROES London, Jan. 25.—The "alarm" sounded by the London Evening Standard on Tuesday in regard to "the black peril" for London, referring to an invasion of this city by Negroes who, it is asserted, find themselves on an equality with whites, has evoked a peculiar response. A majority of the letters drawn from the public in regard to the statements made by the paper about American Negro men finding themselves on an equality with white women here are of the "man and brother" type of argument, but others regard the matter with seriousness. The latter represent a rapidly increasing class of Englishmen in London who, particularly in the last couple of years, have realized the introduction of a social evil from which a very few years ago London was practically free. London has long been noted for its cosmopolitanism, and from the viewpoint of many has been notorious for its liberality, but there is no doubt that it is now developing a color prejudice. For years Englishmen who have traveled in the United States and Africa have feared the equality treatment with which Negroes and other men of color are received here. A spirit of antagonism is now spreading among untraveled Britishers. This is largely due to the wholesale influx of American Negroes. Negro prize-fighters with their domestic scandals and particularly the cabled reports in recent months concerning Jack Johnson and his frequent police court cases, and perhaps more than anything else the greater number of Americans visiting England and every year coming in closer touch with English people socially and widening their outlook and increasing their knowledge, have all been contributing causes to this new feeling in England. Mrs. Anne Gross is in jail here under a sentence of five years imprisonment for manslaughter in connection with the killing of Jessie Tricks, alias McIntyre, her husband's white paramour. The Negro and his wife belong to a troup of cheap vaudeville workers, and this case is typical of many. The white woman had been the consort of three Negroes before the wife of the fourth one murdered her. In the underworld the assso- TREATMENT FOR FAST. The enormous craze for ragtime, which today hold London from the highest to the lowest ranks of society, has enabled many Negroes to obtain the necessary work, as most of them can sing ragtime and just at present ragtime, good or bad, goes with the English public. The law also has had the effect of inducing several Negro prizefighters, who practically had abandoned the ring, whether in inferior boxing clubs or in minor music halis, to look for bouts instead of living as blacks of wealth. MADAME E. AZALIA HACKLEY AT HAMP- TON INSTITUTE Hampton, Institute, Hampton, Va., Jan. 24.—A most interesting, instructive and particularly pleasing "Musical Festival and Demonstration in Voice Culture" was given at Hampton Institute Saturday evening, Jan. 11, by the entire State Hist & Nat Hist Society State House HANTS WH ADO THE JOURNAL DENVER, COLORADO student body under the immediate direction of Madame E. Azalia Hackley. The spacious auditorium where Mamam Hackley was greeted by an intensely appreciative audience composed of the most representative white and colored people who expressed themselves repeatedly by round after round of enthusiastic applause, the more than three hundred girls with their beautiful white waists and dark skirts, the five hundred boys in their well-fitting blue uniforms and soldierly bearing, with flags, bunting and footlight decoration of palms and ferns made a most beautiful and picturesque scene. At the end of part two Madame Hackley was the recipient of many handsome bouquets. These bouquets were composed of most beautiful pink and white roses. Attached to the largest bouquet was an attractive card which bore the inscription: "To Madame E. Azalia Hackley, in token of our appreciation, from the Hampton Boys." Dr. Frissell, principal of Hampton Institute, in behalf of the faculty, teachers, officers and students thanked Madam Hackley for the inspiration and help she has given to the musical department of the school. He further assured her that she would always be a welcome guest at Hampton whenever she wished to come. The conductor, Madame Hackley, aside from being very well known as the possessor of a most charming soprano voice, has spent some time abroad in studying different phases of her subject. She is also the author of several excellent booklets pertaining to music and voice culture. This is condeded to be the largest chorus of trained Negro voices that ever gave a similar performance. After about two weeks training of a chorus of nearly a thousand voices composed of Hampton students the following program with Madam Hackley conducting was very effectively and successfully given. Time and space will not permit us to comment on each selection but one listening to the female chorus of more than three hundred voices as they sang in unison, "Dost thou Know That Sweet Land," by A. Thomas, could not help but be tremenduously thrilled by the sweet mellow tones of the girls and the beautiful way in which they rendered Thomas' selection. The male chorus of more than 500, as they sang Kipling's "Rolling Down to Rio," made cold shivers run up and down one's back. Gounod's "Gallia," accompanied by the Hampton Institute Brass band of about forty pieces, was rendered most effectively, beginning softly, slowly, and sweetly with the lamentations, gradually working up to the magnificent climax, 'O, Turn Thee to the Lord, Thy God.' If the "Gallia" has ever been better rendered anywhere, no one in that vast appreciative audience ever heard it, that is if tumultuous applause was any indication. AN ATTACK ON NEGRO TROOPS (From Detroit Free Press.) It is announced that when the ranking officers of the army meet in Washington on January 8, a proposal is to be made that the Negro be eliminated as an American soldier. Such a movement is without warrant, dangerous and inequable. It is in opposition to the spirit, if not the letter, of that clause of the federal constitution which declares that "a well regulated militia being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed." The Negroes are a part of the people. No reasons worthy of serious consideration have been advanced why the colored regiments should be discontinued. We are told that the Filipinos resent the appearance of the black troopers, and that there are signs of dissatisfaction in Hawaii because the Twenty-fifth infantry has been sent to the island to form a permanent garrison. Well, it is not unnatural that the Filipinos should dislike the colored troops. In the days of the insurrections they had some very unpleasant passages at arms with them. Among army officers there was no question about the elimination of the colored soldier in those days while the memory of San Juan Hill was fresh. Regular troops are not maintained and paid to attend pink tea functions or to delight the artistic sensibilities of local citizenship. They are for war, and it ought to matter very little whether or not they are liked by the reformed Moros of the Philippines or the unnaturalized Japanese of the Hawaiian islands or a few gold-laced officers, who possibly are jealous of their records. At least it ought not to matter so long as they are brave and trustworthy, and it is significant that the officers who come in direct contact with the colored troops are the ones who are now rushing to their defense. It is a fact, also, whether some people like it our not, that the Negro as a citizen has a moral right to fight and die for his county if he wishes to do so. It is a question whether he does not gain in manliness and steadiness and self-respect by being placed in a position peculiarly suited to bring out the best qualities of his somewhat primitive nature. There are some RACE NEWS GATHERED FROM VARIOUS SOURCES Houston, Texas, Jsn. 12.—In extending greetings to members and friends the United Brothers of Friendship and Sisters of Mysterious Ten of Texas, announces that the order's receipts for 1912 amounted to $125,000. To date $510,000 has been collected for widows and orphans, and the net resources of the order above all claims is $50,000. The grand officers are: W. F. Bledsoe, Marshall, grand master; D. A. Starks, Hempstead, deputy grand master; F. W. Gross, Houston, grand secretary; C. H. Griggs, Prairie View assistant grand secretary; Joseph Nichols, Houston, grand treasurer; H. D. Robinson, Mineral Wells, grand auditor. Atlantic City, N. J., Jan. 22. The Atlantic City Board of Education held a meeting last week and unanimously voted not to recognize Dr. James F. Bourne, a colored druggist, as a member of the board. Dr. Bourne attended the meeting, accompanied by his lawyer, John J. Crandall. Dr. Bourne was appointed a member of the Board of Education of this city last fall by Mayor Bacharach a few days before retiring. The white members strenuously object to serving on the board with a colored member, and have passed resolutions to reduce the board to the original seven. Montgomery, Ala., Jan. 21.—For the first time in the history of the Corn contests in Alabama, a Negro has been awarded one of the first prizes, Isaac D. Martin, of Pratt City, being the man who will receive $150 as second prize in the contest this year. Martin raised 200 bushels of corn on one acre, Burney Owens, of Ware, Elmore County, won the first prize of $250 his yield being $237 $4 bushels on oae acre. Third prize of $100 went to Willie Atkinson, of McCalla, Jefferson County, his yield being 198 bushels. It has been suggested that an Infantry post be established at Washington, D. C., and that the 25th Infantry be assigned to it permenly. On account of race things for which the Negro is not yet suited, but he is a good, steady trustworthy fighter under white leadership, and he should be given a chance to do his fair share of the nation's work along this line. NO 21 prejudice the local interests have frequently protested against the stationing of the 25th Infantry at various posts. These protests have not been confined to Southern localities, but have come from the neighborhood of northern posts where colored regiments have been stationed. The claim is made that the 25th Infantry, or any of the other colored regiments, would receive better treatment in the District of Columbia than at any other station. There is a large high-class colored population in the District which would give the members of a colored regiment a circle of society in which they could mingle without any prejudice. For some time it has been insisted that the Infantry should have a representation in the vicinity of Washington, and it is suggested that this would be the solution of the problem. During the past fifty years there has been a rapid increase in the wealth of the Negroes of the South. This increase has been especially marked in the past ten years, during which time the value of the domestic animals which they own increased from $85,216,337 to $177,273,785, or 107 per cent; poultry from $3,788,792, to $5,113,756, or 35 per cent.; implements and machinery from $18,586,225 to $367,831,418, or 98 per cent., land and buildings from $69,636,420 to $273,501,665 or 293 per cent. From 1900 to 1910 the total value of farm property owned by the colored farmers of the South increased from $177,404,688 to $492,898,218 or 177 per cent. In 1863, the total wealth of the Negroes of this country was about $20,000,000. Now the total wealth is over $700,000,000. No other emancipated people have made so great a progress in so short a time, says the Southern Workman. The Russian serfs were emancipated in 1861. Fifty years, after it was found that 14,000,000 of them had accumulated about $500,000,000 worth of property or about $36 per capita, an average of $200 per family. Fifty years after their emancipation only about 30 per cent, of the Russian peasants were able to read and write. After fifty years of freedom the 10,000,000 Negroes in the United States have accumulated over $700,000,000 worth of property, or about $70 per capita, which is an average of $350 per family. After fifty years of freedom 70 per cent. of them have some education in books.

LEGISLATIVE | DOINGS Western Newspaper Union News Service. SENATORS CRITICIZE COURT. Judiciary Committee to Frame New Question for Justices to Answer. Denver.—Members of the State Sen- ate did not mince words in expressing their opinions of the Supreme Court's refusal to answer the Senate's ques- tions of who should be considered lieu- tenant governor, After considerable debate the body voted to refer the questions back to the judiciary com- mittee for recommendations. The com: mittee will probably recommend the resubmission of the questions to the court in slightly different form. Several senators declared their dis- agreement with the majority of the court, which held that the situation is not a sufficiently “solemn occasion” to warrant the court’s consideration without the regular procedure of a court suit. Jury Service by Women Optional. Denver—The woman jury bill now before the Legislature was changed in its effect when an amendment was made in the Senate whereby women may be excused from jury service on the grounds of sex.

Rockefeller, Jr., Tells of Its Origin, Work and Plans for the Investigation of Vice Conditions. Aaa tee pth wp eee ee ee ees cena New York, Jan. 28.—In order that the public might better understand the Bureau of Social Hygiene, John D. Rockefeller, Jr., gave out a state- ment explaining the origin, work and plans of that institution. The bureau, he said, came into existence about two years ago as a result of the work of @ special grand jury appointed to in- vestigate the white slave traffic in New York city. This jury recommend- ed that a public commission be ap- pointed to study the social evil. Mr. Rockefeller was foreman of that grand jury and he thereafter gave the subject deep thought and conferred with a large number of leading men and women, ‘These conferences,” says Mr, Rockefeller, “developed the fecling that a public commission would labor under a number of disad- vantages, such as the fact that it would be short lived; that its work would be done publicly; that at best it could hardly do more than present recommendations. So the conviction grew that in ofder to make a real and lasting improvement in conditions, a permanent organization should be cre- ated, the continuation of which would not be dependent upon a temporary wave of reform, nor upon tho life of any man or group of men, but which would go on, generation after genera- tion, continuously making warfare against the forces of evil. It also ap- peared that a private organization would have, among other advantages, a certain freedom from publicity and from political bias, which a publicly appointed commission could not so easily avoid. “Therefore, as the initial step, in the winter of 1911 the Bureau of So- cial Hygiene was formed. Its present members are Miss Katharine Bement ‘Davis, superintendent of the New York State Reformatory for Women at Bedford Hills, N. Y.; Paul M. War- burg, of the firm of Kuhn, Locb & Co.; Starr J. Murphy of the New York bar, and John D. Rockefeller, Jr. As the work develops new members may be added. “One of the first things undertaken by the bureau was the establishment at Bedford Hils, adjacent to the re- formatory, of a laboratory of social hygiene, under Miss Davis’ direction. In this laboratory it is proposed to study from the physical, mental, social and moral side each person committed to the reformatory, This study will be carried on by experts and each case will be kept under observation for from three weeks to three months, as may be requiged. When the diagnosis is completed, it is hoped that the lab- oratory will be in position to recom- mend the treatment most likely to re- form the individual, or, if reformation is impossible, to recommend perma- nent custodial care. Furthermore, reaching out beyond the individuals involved, it is believed that thus im- portant contributions may be made to a fuller knowledge of the conditions ultimately responsible for vice. If this experiment is successful the principal may prove applicable to all classes of criminals and the conditions preced- ent to crime, and lead to lines of ac- tion not only more scientific and hu- mane but also less wasteful than those at present followed.” ‘That its work might be done intell!- gently the bureau employed George J. Kneeland to make a comprehensive ‘survey of vice conditions in New York; and Abraham Flexner to ‘study the social evil in Europe, and their reports are now being prepared. These studies will be followed by others in various Ameri- can cities, and it is the hope of the bureau that, based upon all of them, may be devised a practical plan for dealing with the social evil. In conclusion Mr. Rockefeller’s statement says: “It cannot be too strongly emphasized that the spirit which dominates the work of the bu- reau is not sensational or sentimental or hysterical; that it is not a spirit of criticism of public officials; but that it Is essentially a spirit of con- structive suggestion and of deep sci- entific as well as humane interest in Pans RED eee Tea eae New Turkish Cabinet.

Western Newspaper Union News Service. Springfield, 111, Jan, 30.—The speak- ership deadlock was broken by the election of William McKinley, Demo- erat, of Chicago, on the 76th ballot. The deadlock has continued since January sth, preventing the induction into office of the newly-elected Demo- cratic state officers and balloting on the election of two United States sen- ators. / McKinley was elected by a combina- ‘tion of Democratic and Republican votes, There was much explaining of votes, and, while no intimation was made of money bribery, it was freely charged that a deal had been made involving the two United States senatorships. It was a notable coincidence that the new speaker should have been elected on day observed in memory of the President of the same name. The new state officers will be Inaugurated Feb ruary 3rd. Righty-three votes were cast for Me- Kinley, divided as follows: Democrats 36, Republicans 46, Progressives 1. In view of the charges regarding a sena- torial deal, several Democrats who had voted for McKinley on previous bal- lots refused to support him on the final ballot. So direct were the charges that Mr. McKinley rose and made a statement denying that he was a party to any understanding regarding the speakership and announcing that he would preside over the House impar- tially if, elected. Leaders of the Republican side do not deny that they expect to land the six-year term senatorship.

The abuse of charitableness is a far too prevalent sin among colored people, and one that is not criticised enough for their own good. It is a com- mon thing with many to consider themselves standing objects of provident consideration at the hands of their white acquaintances or employers, and if they do not thus secure a certain amount of their livelihood, they consider their lots cast in hard and thorny places. The excusable trait in the ante- bellum Negro of considering himself the natural object of private charity, has, by foree of example, taken too strong hold upon the principles and energies of the younger clement, so that many of them look for favors and charities merely on account of their race identity. It should not be forgotten that the character of improvidence and servility attaches to a donor's estimation of the man or woman who is always looking for, wanting or ready to accept do- nations and gifts. To provide for the common beggar the community ,estab- lishes boards of charity and poorhouses, but (hose who regularly seek and ex- cept charity contributions and favors, while not confessed beggers, come to be regarded as an improvident load and responsibility upon those who happen to be thrown into business relations with them. This causes many people to despise the Negro, while others soften their contempt into an idea of general indolence and worthlessness, Colored men, especially those who pretend to be men of integrity and under standing, need to cultivate pride and self-depen- dence to the extent that all their dealings with white people. shall be strictly upon a basis of right and merit, A colored business man who asks patronage or other favors because he is colored, or poor, or sick, or otherwise unfortu- hate, is net doing a legitimate business as white men do it, but is simply masking beggary. ‘The only way to gain a respectable standing, either in the business world or the field of labor, is to go in upon your merits and give val- ue received for the benefits and rewards that you earn, No merchant or other business man is under any obligations to show you favors because you are indigent; nobody is under obligation to employ or favor you because you are poor. You must learn to compete with others in your sphere upon the ground of individual merit. To accept such a competition manfully will not only instill a spirit of independence and worthiness in those that accept it, but a high respect in the minds of those that observe it. A colored man who is able, energetic and full of business, inspires not only others of his own race, but all others with whom he comes in business contact. ‘The lack of thrift independence and business energy and the prevalence of charitable ex- pectancy are probably the causes of many business failures among colored men, ‘They expect charitable consideration for their inability or neglect to equal others in their line, and when people grow’ tired of such concessions, as they are soon bound to do, their enterprises collapse. Charity carries its limit. As a private virture, its repetition entails the loss of respect; as a public necessity it 1s at the best a cold service, In both business and com- munity relations the colored people will do well to get beyond its necessity &s soon as they possibly can, 5 The other evening at a simple social function, opened with a game of cards, the host caused quite a stir among the ladies present by announc- ing after the guests had seated them- selves at the tables: “If everybody's made up, we'll start.” Self consciously they looked at one another and in- voluntarily their hands went to their faces. Marvelous is the powér of kindness. ‘They will do most in life who are most considerate. They may be charged with sentimentalism by those who do not understand the power of human feeling, but they will be cred- ited with philosophy by men who un- derstand the genius of sympathy.— Joseph Parker. Examine Strange Personality. A Frenchman, named Marguy, said to possess the hide of an elephant, instead of the ordinary human skin, and therefore believed to be an ab- normally constituted person, not ac- countable for his actions, is to be medically examined at the request of the French attorney general to de- termine his responsibility for a theft for which he has been imprisoned some months, al Not What She Meant. ‘Bowen lat kicindnase An intimate friendship is at once ® safeguard in recreation and social enjoyment, for a man thinks twice be fore he plunges into surroundings which he knows his best friend would condemn. It is a stimulus, because in work or business, or even play, a man does not willingly lag behind while the friend is forging ahead. In common endeavors for good causes religious or social or political, friend ship is a powerful inducement to self forgetting activity, If Iam walking in the very eye of heaven and feeling it on me where ] go, there is no question for me of hu- man dignity—Meredith. “Now if I can get some acquaint- ance to indorse my note——" “Bet- ter try some stranger.”—Houston Post.

FRANK CRANE HERE are two classes of criminals—one is criminal and the other is not. . There are honest, good, decent folk, at least as good as you and I, who stumble into crime, not walk into it. They hate it as much as we do; they condemn themselves much more severely than court or priest can condemn them. Crime may be divided into two parts—the inner desire and the out- ward act. Usually we call crime only the latter, while the former we term merely a disposition td crime. Still, whoever has the eriminal wish is perhaps as guilty before the tribunal of his own conscience as the other. And frequently the com- mission of an open deed of wrong is no more than a matter of circum- stances, You and I, for instance, both have anger in our hearts, I, having more prudence and less courage than you, keep away from the offender. You fearlessly meet him, he attacks you, you defend yourself, andd the very first blow you give him happens to kill him. : Very often it is some chance, some peculiar combination of circum- stances, that pushes a man from the realm of decent, law-abiding people over the line into the alleged criminal class. This is particularly true of the more serious offenses. ‘The wardens of the penitentiaries will tell you that the quietest, best behaved inmates are the murderers. ‘The reason is that very few murderers are hardened criminals. Their offense is usually one of sudden passion. ‘That there are criminal natures there can be no doubt. There are moral perverts, some of them practically incurable. For the good of soci- ety they should be confined somewhere away from other people. All the rascals are not in jail, nor all the straight, square men out of jail. The administration of justice will always be faulty so long as it is merely a department of law which can look only at the deed done and can do no other than punish the offender or let him go. Criminology is a science and should be studied by scientific methods. A depraved taste, weak will or distorted moral sense needs a physician as much as does a bad liver or a deranged mind. Crime is a thing to be healed, not punished. Remove crime conditions and cure the criminal. This should be the aim. forced the conclusion that the average man is just as considerate a: the average woman, if not more so. I could name specific instances where women have “hogged it” ot the street cars with their bundles and baskets and children and eccen tricities of dress that would put to shame the veriest street-car hog o: the. masculine gender. And this reminds me that if the good women who are trying t¢ reform the world through the press, at the clubs and by means of the ballot would devote more of their time to the nursery, where real man. ners and real morals are developed, there would be less need of complain: against the frailties of mere man, for as the twig is bent so shall i grow. weeping. Perhaps it was glad, and though we cannot remember the melody we sang in the dream, echoes of it keep falling all through the hours of waking. It is as though the soul had found, somewhere in the bounds of dark ness, a secret pool of emotion, had fallen therein and come to the gate of morning dripping wet with some unknown feeding. We might make more allowance for what souls do when awake i we knew whither they had fared and what they had suffered in th caverns of sleep.

Coming from a section of the country where the civilities of life receive more attention than in the practical north, I was surprised at the manners, or lack of manners, of the average street-car patron. To me it seemed little less than a crime for a man to occupy a seat while a woman was standing.

The details of them leave us. It all is confused, blurred in the memory, as if clouds had grouped to form some clear picture and had instantly been blown all a-tangle by the wind. But the dream stays on in the heart.

If Necessary to Stint, Let It Be Any where But There—Too Frequently Most Unsanitary Corner of the House. A writer on hygiene has said that “the modern kitchen is a refinery, a laboratory and disinfection station and & factory.” __ If 80, it {s tmportant to run it on hy- lenic lines; in many homes {t is the unsanitary corner of the house. ‘With the kitchenette habit less and Jess attention is paid to sunlight; in- stead of being the cheerlest room im the house, the kitchen is often the darkest and worst ventilated. While it 1s not always possible to wet the ideal kitchen, the woman who Tents a house should see that it {s not shaded by balconies, that the range is not in some dark alcove where light and air never reach, and that the sink has proper drainage and {s free from backboards where grease can lodge. Im building a house stint on wood- Work and furnishings rather than om the kitchen. It should be built with at least two windows, preferably 80 there may be a cross draught, and a third small window above the range to give light and let odors escape. Rounded corners, paneled walls and tiled floors make ideal furnishings for @ Kitchen, as dust and germs have fewer lurking places. If that !s be- yond one’s means, have a hard plaster wall and flush with wide, tight-fitting baseboard, and give all a coat of light- colored paint once a year. Have the paint enameled, so {t may be washed frequently. A hardwood floor is near- ly as costly as a tiled one, so the aver- age householder must fall back on Mnoleum. It pays to get the best qual- ity. Do not stint on your sink. Delay building if you must put in a wood and zinc abomination, which breeds all sorts of germs. Solid porcelain is the first choice, next best 1s porcelain- /-Uned with tlle batking, but even cast- fron is better than wood. ‘The sanitary sink {s open all around to light and air, has a continuous tiled backing, with no crevices for dirt, and ‘the waste pipes must run separate from the soll pipes clear to the house ‘drain. At the right side have a drain- ing board, and another at the left, even if it must be hinged for lack of space. Above the backboard of the sink have a shelf or rod full of hooks and a bit higher build in a closet a little wider than the sink and six inches deep. Here can be stored disinfect- ants, polishing materials, cloths, vege- table brushes, all the things so impor- tant to a germ-free kitchen, yet often neglected because they are not “handy.” Utilize the wall space near the range with shelves and hooks, where can be stored some of the pots, pans, ladles and seasonings always needed in cook- ing. If there Is a corner for a hanging clock there will be less guessing in cooking. Also have a nail where “lift ers” may be fastened by an elastic hanger—tt {s a big saving on tea tow- els. Every woman should insist upon se- pervising the kitchen closet or dresser. In a small room space 1s saved by put- ting this in a corner. It may have a flat table surface, with shelves above reaching to the ceiling and below zinc- lined bins to hold sugar and flour at each side. Between the bins, which should be quite narrow and open like a drawer, have a closet for pots and pans. Filled Cookies. One cup sugar, one-half cup butter and milk, one egg, three and a halt cups flour, two teaspoons cream of tartar, one teaspoon each of soda and vanilla and more flour if needed. Put cookies in a pan, put one teaspoon of filling on each, not letting it come to the edge. Then put another cooky on top. Bake in quick oven, taking care not to scorch, as it takes longer to bake than single cookies. Filling— One-half cup each of sugar and water, one teaspoon flour and one cup chop- ped raisins, figs or dates, or a portion of each. Cook until thick; stir to pre- vent burning. This filling is nice for layer cakes also. ‘These cookies are very nice—most favorite among chil- dren. Cleaning Velvet. Stretch the velvet tautly, pile side upward, over a basin of boiling water. As the steam rises through the velvet get a second person to brush up the pile briskly with a stiff whisk. If the: material is really dirty and not mere- ly crushed and flattened, sponge it: lightly with benzine, taking care that) there {s no artificial ght or fire in the room in which the operation 1s. performed, and also that there is no. draught leading to an apartment con- taining heat or light of any kind, German Potato Pancakes. ‘Take four or five large, raw potatoes and grate them. If very watery, dip some off. Use one or two eggs, one tablespoon flour, one teaspoon salt. Mix together and fry like other cakes, Dut use plenty of lard. Very fine for lunch. Corn Ragout. Cut scraps of ham or bacon in smal? squares; fry brown, add six ripe toma- toes, peeled and sliced, and the grains cut from six ears of corn. Cover with boiling water, season with red pepper and salt, and cook slowly one-half hour. Serve hot with toasted bread.

Brooks was given last Satuday night and those who attended claim it was the best ever held in Denver. ‘About twenty-five men were pres- ent and aside from cards there were such humorists as H. J. Foster, Thos. Edwards and Frosty Jones to amuse the bunch with story and song. Eddie Plummer was at the piano and not only acted as accompshist but sang songs to the delight of all present, his famous song, the “Difference.” It was 8 o'clock before all the boys told ‘Brooks good-bye. He left for New ‘York Sunday. HE FEARED NO EVIL. ‘The daily papers had already recit- ed the ups and downs of Mr, Lewis Price, They printed a detailed account of how he rose from slavery and be- came a giant in the real estate circle, and how he had demonstrated the fact that shrewdness is not confined to any particular race. But the real Price was not understood by the papers. He had an abiding faith in his creator, and a love for his fellow man, When he was blessed with this worlds goods he gave freely to the needy; he was fault- lessly charitable when his sun of pros- perity began to set and darkness came over him. It was then that his mind found so much peace in that fact that he knew his work had been well done. He was buried Sunday from Shorter’s A. M. E. church, where he had been a faithful member for years. The church was crowded with friends and | acquaintances, who came to pay their last tribute to one who had died as he had lived, trusting in his God, and as the papers stated, he had preached his own ‘funeral, sung his favorite songs and died. i The Colorado Statesman regrets his sudden demise, but the Lord doeth all | things well.

Calling Down the Nurse. Little Frank’s nurse, when finding him in mischief was in the habit of exclaiming: “What in the name of common sense are you doing?” One morning, while she was bathing him, he asked: “What in the name of cop- per cents do you mean by getting soap in my eyes?” eid suanaax. A lady suffering from a severe cold directed her maid to procure two pen- nyworth of ammoniated tincture of quinine. Great was her amusement on the return of the maid, who ex- pressed her inability to obtain “the two animated pictures of Queen Anne.”—London Telegraph. Non-Rusting Tinware. If new tinware be rubbed over with fresh lard and thoroughly heated in the oven before it is used, it will never rust afterwards, no matter how much it 1s put into water. For stained tin- ware borax produces the best results. If a tea-pot or coffee-pot is discolored on the inside, boll it in a strong #0- lution of borax for a short time, and all its brightness will return. Sizing Him Up. ‘When you call the average young rpan honest he {s Ikely to feel a mild sort of gratification. When you call him competent his chest begins to bulge. When you call him a heart- breaker he slaps you on the shoulder and gives you to understand that he considers you a person of remarkable perception and unerring judgment. ‘BinaatlGrapliet All: “No country, after all, produces any better crop than its inhabitants.

There are two clubs in New York that are designed to reduce the cost of fresh reading matter. One is com- posed of women who contribute 25 cents a month and have the use of all the best magazines, which are later sent to a hospital.

Tuskegee, Ala.—Booker T. Washington, principal and founder of Tuskegee institute, the famous school for negroes, delivered a characteristic address in the chapel of the school to nearly 1,600 students, 200 teachers and several hundred colored citizens. The first day's conference was given over to the negro farmers. As stated in the program, the subject for discussion was "How to Secure Cheaper Money for Running the Farm." This put the problem of agricultural credit in terms that the negro farmer understood, and was interested in. Representative negro farmers from Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana and Arkansas described the present condition of the negro farmer in the states from which they come and the present methods of obtaining loans, rates of interest and so forth. Individual farmers told how they have succeeded in reducing the principal and rates of interest upon their yearly loans. R. L. Smith of Waco, Tex., who is the head of a negro farmers' co-operative association in that state, which has established a bank, discussed the subject of co-operative credit and the success of the Texas farmers in cutting down the item of interest in the farmers' annual budget. Charles Banks, cashier of the Bank of Mound Bayou, Mississippi, which supplies a large share of the funds necessary to conduct the agricultural operations of the farming community in which the little negro town of Mound Bayou is the center, discussed the question from the point of view of the man who makes the loans. One of the features of the day's proceedings was the exhibits showing some of the results of the demonstration farming work being done in the several counties adjoining Tuskegee Institute where the demonstration method of teaching farmers has been in operation. The report of the demonstration agents was followed by a distribution of prizes to the corn clubs organized and conducted in these counties. The second day's session of the conference was the meeting of teachers, principals, school trustees and others actively interested in school work. The subject for discussion was: "How to Secure More Money for the Public Schools." Teachers and principals of schools in Mississippi, Tennessee, Alabama and Georgia described the present condition of the schools in their home communities, and the various means employed by the county school teachers to secure the interest of white planters, county school superintendents, and others, in meeting the needs of the negro schools. They will also report upon the extent to which the negro farmers are taxing themselves in order to improve the school building and lengthen the school term in different local communities. Repreensntatives of the Anna T. Jeanes fund, for the improvement of negro rural schools, and also the new state supervisor of negro public schools in Alabama spoke at this conference session. Philadelphia, Pa.—Dr. Booker T. Washington addressed the students at the University of Pennsylvania in Logan Hall. His theme was "The Progress Made by the Colored Race During the Forty-nine Years of Their Freedom." At the conclusion of his talk he was asked about the intermarriage of races. "We do not teach it," he replied quickly. Le Siecle of Paris, France, publishes from the Colonial Bulletin the following article under the headline "An Example." The negro throughout the world will learn with pleasure and satisfaction of the great recognition given a representative of the negro race by the great government of France. The French republic is not afraid to honor such of its black citizens as deserve honor and who, by worth and achievement, deserve it. The march through Fashoda several years ago of a portion of the French army was under the command of General Dodds, also a representative of the negro people. The French seem to believe in the "square deal," and are not afraid of giving honor to those to whom honor is due. A new skyscraper, a six story Odd Fellows building, to cost $135,000, is the work of a Negro contractor, Mr. R. E. Pharrow of Atlanta, Georgia. This is only one of a great many buildings he has erected, among which is Sale Hall of Atlanta Baptist College, and the First Congregational church of Atlanta. Dr. G. W. Gates, late president of Flsk university, died at Winter Park, Fla., a suicide from wounds in the throat inflicted by his own hand. Continued ill health is supposed to have been the cause. The punishment for bad manners and habits is more certain than the punishment for crime. The man who does not seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, will find little else that will do him much good. Tuskegee, Ala.—Booker T. Washington, principal and founder of Tuskegee institute, the famous school for negroes, delivered a characteristic address in the chapel of the school to nearly 1,600 students, 200 teachers and several hundred colored citizens from the town of Tuskegee and the Greenwood settlement. Much interest was attached to the address, because it was the last talk to the student body and teachers for the old year and because it was expected that the address would touch upon future work of teachers and students. The address was delivered without notes, stenographically reported, and it was characteristic of the practical and helpful discourses Dr. Washington delivers Sunday evenings to the school. Washington's address emphasized two principles as applied to the negro: the value of organization and the necessity of obedience and discipline. Summing up his arguments and stressing the need for respect of authority, he said: "One of the fine results, satisfactory results, following the mastery of that lesson is that in any organization, a school or what not, where people have learned that great fundamental lesson of respect for authority, obedience to commands, there you will find order, there you will find peace, there you will find absence of friction, there you will find success. Now, let me repeat that one of the differences between ignorance and intelligence, between crudeness and culture, consists in the fact that an individual has learned obedience, respect for authority and the other has not learned it, and don't make the mistake that so many people make, often educated people make, that to obey is a sign of weakness, is a sign of degradation; to obey is a sign of strength, to obey is a sign of all that which indicates nobility of character. I want you every day to get into your blood and bones and practice it in every avenue of work here, the lesson that if you want to be useful, even great after you leave here, learn the lesson of obedience; practice it here and through all times." Throughout the country there seems to be an awakening to the fact that the Negro is to be a hewer of wood and a drawer of water just so long as he is satisfied to be that. Positions above the menial class must come if they come at all, through cooperation among Negroes along commercial lines. The duty of patronizing race enterprises is being talked everywhere. And just here it is well to caution the Negro in business against the fallacy of trying to do business solely on his color. In order to get a share of even the Negro's business, he must adopt and use those methods—often inexpensive—which spell success for other business people. He must be reliable, keep a decent place, as against a dive, or hang-out for the worthless; he must let his place of business be noted for cleanliness and up-to-dateness. In short, he must not only prepare to win success, but to deserve it. He must stand ready and willing and fully able to "deliver the goods."—Dallas Express. There was a run on the Mechanics Saving bank, colored, in Richmond, Va., caused by a carpenter who tried to cash a check after the closing hour, and because he was refused, spread the report that the bank was broke. The run was handled by the officials in a masterful manner. Always be the first to see the bright spot in a black sky, and your face will soon begin to look as good to those you meet as a barrel of apples does to a boy. White principals and teachers have been in control of the public schools of Charleston, S. C., since these schools were first established. The introduction of a jim crow street car ordinance has aroused many of the colored leaders to realize now the injustice of white teachers continuing in their schools to the exclusion of prepared negroes, whereas formerly they felt flattered by having them. It is argued that these leaders are acting in a spirit of retaliation. No matter if they are—being aroused to action on this subject is the essential thing just now. An investigating committee of the C. M. E. church has found Bishop Stewart guilty of embezzlement of church funds, and voted his suspension. Of the money handled by the bishop over $43,000 could be accounted for and $10,000 could not be traced. White men made Jack Johnson, and now the belief is growing that his recent troubles have been brought on by attempts of white men to break him. True to the growing racial consciousness, negroes have gone to his rescue, Attorney Gilchrist Stewart, sent to Chicago by the Constitutional league to investigate the case, says: "Owing to appeals to race prejudice, we shall have to make a great effort to save him from the penitentiary." All doors fly open to the man who has plenty of sunshine in his face. TOTAL NUMBER OF VOLUMES IN LIBRARY OF CONGRESS. Figures Shown in Annual Report—Collection Classed as One of Greatest in World—Manuscripts of Interest and Gifts of Papers. The report of the librarian of congress for the past fiscal year (ended June 30) has just been submitted to congress. Although, as usual, it disclaims, as, in effect, do the reports of the British museum and other great research libraries, any attempt to set forth completely the state LAURENCE H. HARRIS of activities of the library, the facts which it gives are sufficiently impressive. In the first place as to the mere bulk of the collections: With accessions, during the past year, in printed books and pamphlets alone of over 120,000 volumes, the total collection of these has now passed the 2,000,000 mark. Including the manuscripts, maps, music and prints the collection as a whole has passed the 3,000,000 mark. The average increase in books and pamphlets during the past 12 years has been 88,000 volumes, and the total for that period over 1,000,000 volumes, a growth exceeding that of the entire preceding century. Of the 120,000 volumes added during the past year some 61,000 were the result of copyright, gift, transfer or exchange, thus coming to the library substantially without cost, save of service. The obligation to this material alone would evidently justify a considerable establishment. In mere dimensions the library has thus come to be one of the great collections of the world. The report indicates, moreover, that it is not to ignore any department of literature, even those remote from ordinary affairs, if of interest to the scholar and investigator, for it notes, as a most welcome accession of the year, an important collection of Judaica, given by Jacob H. Schiff, comprising some 10,000 volumes and covering a period of nearly three and a half millennium from the beginning of Jewish national life to the present day; and it expresses the hope that this will develop into a department embracing all Semitica. Other gifts of similar import include the collection on chemistry, alchemy and related topics formed by the late Dr. Henry Carrington Bolton, a Napoleonic collection gathered by Maj. Karow and a collection of the prints issued by the Imperial Press at Vienna—presented by the Austro-Hungarian government, and constituting the fifth such collection due to the courtesy of foreign ceived having been from France, Germany, Italy and Japan, in that sequence. The collection of prints will hereafter be augmented by the income of the Hubbard bequest, the principal of which ($20,000) has now been transferred to the government. The gifts of manuscripts were, as usual, many and of signal interest. Among them were the Matthew Fontaine Maury papers, containing much material illustrative of the development of scientific knowledge of the development of the United States, of the diplomatic and naval history of the Civil war, of the attempts to establish a colony of Americans in Mexico after the war, with autograph letters of great interest from the Grand Duke Constantine of Russia, Humboldt, Maximilian, Carlotta and Pope Plus IX. For this valuable collection the library is indebted to Mrs. Mary Maury Worth, the daughter of the late Matthew Fontaine Maury, and others of his descendants. Other important gifts of manuscripts include some Van Buren papers from Dr. Stuyvesant Fish Morris and Mrs. Smith Van Buren, a notable collection of Mexican inquisition papers from David Fergusson, Edwin M. Stanton papers from Lewis H. Stanton, the Louise Chandler Moulton collection of autograph letters from celebrated English writing poets and novelists, including three from Robert Browning, one from George Elliot, one from Tennyson, several from Whittier, Walt Whitman and Horace Greeley, a number from George Meredith, Oliver Wendell Holmes, Stedman and others. Another gift of autographic interest was that of the manuscript of Thomas Hardy's "A Group of Noble Dames," received through Sydney C. Cockerell of Cambridge, England, at the hands of Luther S. Livingston of New York. A gift by J. Pierpont Morgan of a set of autographic documents of the signers of the Declaration of Independence was received since the close of the fiscal year. The most important purchases of manuscripts were of the papers of Yturbide, Emperor of Mexico, 1822-23, and of the papers of James Henry Hammond of South Carolina, a representative in congress in 1835 and 1836, governor of the state from 1842 to 1844, and senator from 1857 to 1860. Dry Month in England. But two-hundredths of an inch of rain was measured at Greenwich observatory in England in April, making it the driest month recorded in a century. Distribution of Government Documents Now Centralized in Office of Superintendent of Documents. Uncle Samuel may not go in for the sworn circulation stars in the newspaper directories, but he is something of a publisher himself, nevertheless. Just how extensive a publisher he is, however, not even he realized until under the new law all mailing and distribution of public documents was taken from the hundred or so departments, bureaus, commissions, services and offices and concentrated in the office of the superintendent of documents, which is a bureau of the government printing office. August Donath, the superintendent, on whom all this new work has fallen, is willing and anxious to testify, after three weeks' experience in distributing all the government printing office publications, that Uncle Sam is the greatest publisher on earth. There seems to be some basis for Mr. Donath's contention. The new centralized mailing office is now sending out something like 1,000,000 copies of publications per week. It is true that certain, indeed numerous, private publishing houses in this country equal and exceed this number of copies per week. But it is in the diversity of the million documents going out each week to subscribers that Uncle Sam stands at the head of the art preservative. If he had only one or two or three publications making up this circulation, how quickly Mr. Donath's present problems would smooth themselves out! But this million is made up of somewhat over a thousand publications, which issue from the presses daily, weekly, monthly, annually or at uncertain intervals. Over a thousand separate mailing lists must be kept in the fileroom for the purpose. There are acres of bins and shelves containing the back number files, on which there is a steady demand. The entire government in all its branches is blocked out in this huge stockroom, as if on a relief map—divisions of the room for departments, sections for bureaus, stacks for divisions and the pins or pigeonholes, filled with their hundred or two hundred copies of single publications. And a force of employees which on some days numbers as many as 150, but is always between 90 and 100, assisted by a battery of mechanical addressing machines, envelope licking machines and automatic mail sacking devices' and the like, doing nothing but sending out these publications to a more or less eager public. This is part of the activity created by the new law. Uncle Sam, from his fifteen-million-dollar printing office, which is the best equipped printing office in the world, issues with other things three daily newspapers, five weeklies and half a dozen months, as well as a monthly illustrated magazine, which is a model of beautiful typographical work and which can be bought on many newsstands not only in this country, but throughout the world, especially in Central and South America, for 20 cents a copy. This latter is the Bulletin of the Pan-American Union. The combined circulation of these publications is about 455,000. PERFORMING ON THE AVENUE Among Famous Men, Chief Justice White Is the Champion "Hiker"—Other Notables. Washington has a "Pedestrians' club," the members of which are among the most famous men in the land. It is that of the justices of the Supreme court of the United States. The chief "hiker" is Chief Justice White. The privates in the walking squad are Associate Justices Holmes, Hughes, Lamar and occasionally Justice McKenna. These eminent jurists may be seen almost any day the court sits, "performing" on Pennsylvania avenue, around five o'clock in the afternoon. They walk from the capitol to the treasury, a good mile, and there disband. Some enter their waiting carriages, some the plebeian street car. Their "hike" is no promenade. They take a brisk gait, considering their years, and engage in earnest and often agitated conversation. Usually they are so engrossed in their discussion that they unwittingly pass by acquaintances and friends without seeing them. Tradition has it that Chief Justice John Marshall was the founder of the club. In the traditions of the club, Mr. Justice Story is also credited with having been an ardent "hiker." So were Justices Ellsworth, Miller, Field, Tenny, Chase and Harlan. Chief Justice White was a pupil of the latter in the art of "hiking." Morgan Speaks Politely. J. Pierpont Morgan, the New York financier, agrees that gifts are not always appreciated. While in Washington attending the Pujo money trust investigation as a witness he was accosted by Miss Ida Hinman. "I do not think that those to whom you give your money, or those to whom other rich men make donations, appreciate your giving," said Miss Hinman. "I thank you," exclaimed Mr. Morgan, as though he appreciated the sympathy. "I think you may be right and I appreciate what you say." Always Aggravating. When a man loses because he failed to act in accordance with his convictions he feels doubly aggrieved if he cannot blame it on his wife.

While All Food Products Are Down for More Probing, the Cannery Business Will Get a Lot of Attention From the Bureau. Washington.—Dr. Carl L. Alsberg, recently appointed chief of the bureau of chemistry, to succeed Dr. Wiley, found himself furnished with a year's program of work of imposing proportions, and it is understood that he is tackling it with energy and purposes to carry it out to the fullest possible extent. The program was devised by Dr. R. E. Doolittle, who was acting chief of the bureau for a long period following Dr. Wiley's resignation, and while Dr. Alsberg may make a few changes in it, for the most part it outlines work that he will go through with. Not only will the bureau be exceedingly busy in pursuing routine inspections of food and drugs, but many new investigations are on the schedule, as well as elaborations of other investigations. "What is beer?" is a question on the list calling for answer. The bureau proposes to make a study of the preparation of malt liquors from various raw materials, especially along the line of determining the absolute composition of products made from barley. Milk, canned foods and oysters are down for more probing. The cannery business will get a lot of attention from the bureau, with particular reference to the packing of canned goods with excessive quantities of water, brine, sauces and other useless fillers. Interstate shipments of milk will be closely watched, particularly the milk furnished to cities situated near state borders and coming from neighboring states. Canned milk will be watched also. When the oyster season opens the bureau proposes to take extensive specimens from all sources of supply. In connection with the study of foods, important experiments will be carried out to get definite information as to changes caused in shipment by temperature, altitude and humidity. C HARRIS & EWING Dr. C. L. Alsberg. Coloring materials used in teas are scheduled for examination, as well as vegetable coloring matter and coal tar dyes used in foods. Vanilla extract, an article well known to the American housewife, will be called on to disclose its secrets. The bureau will endeavor to determine the relation of cornmeal to the dread disease of pellagra. Sleuthing the American egg, from the hen to the consumer, is one of the interesting detective jobs laid out. This will develop from an attempt to get facts regarding the transportation of perishable products. Using the bureau's Omaha laboratory as a center and working in connection with three commercial establishments, the bureau will begin a study of the handling of frozen and dried eggs during what is known as the egg-breaking season. When the egg-breaking season ends it is planned to follow the products, frozen or dried, to the bakers, co-operating with the latter in studying the routine to which the products are subjected and their rate of deterioration after thawing or dissolving. Sugar, sirup and maple sap investigations are on the bureau's list, particularly a study of the effect on maple sap of the metal containers in which it is commonly supplied to the public. One of the most interesting studies of the bureau will concern the methods of making bread in the principal cities of the country and an investigation of the value of different wheats for milling and baking purposes. The bureau also purposes to find out something about macaroni and the us of coloring matter in connection with its manufacture. While foods for human beings come first in importance, the welfare of domestic animals is not entirely forgotten. The bureau will make an extensive study of cattle and poultry foods, with an investigation of range forage crops. We may also know more about the shoes we wear after the bureau completes one feature of its new program, even to the extent of explanation of just how the American small boy can wear out his footgear faster than an automobile can wear out tires. Practical experiments will be made with various kinds of sole leather, treated in different ways, for the purpose of determining the characteristics of a suitable and durable type and of devising laboratory methods for disclosing such qualities. The bureau will also go into the tanning industry to some extent, making experiments in tanning leather so as to produce a high grade, durable material. One of the objects of this leather investigation is the conservation of raw materials used in leather production, which are now inadequate to the demand. Hixon, postmaster at East Washington, finds himself firmly riveted to his job, although he is anxious to get rid of it. The East Washington that holds him is not in the District of Columbia, but a small village ten miles from Hillsboro, N. H. Hixon had been country storekeeper and postmaster there for seven years. He concluded he would remove to Massachusetts, and so sold out his business and sent in his resignation. He also sent his family ahead to Massachusetts. The post office department informed him he could not go until his successor was appointed and qualified, unless the office were discontinued, and so he waited. The department discontinued the post office, but the inhabitants of East Washington put up such a protest through Representative Currier that the department had to back down and revoke its order to discontinuance. Hixon then gave up in despair. He recalled his family from Massachusetts, reopened his store and is now doing business as postmaster with grim determination. The post office is a fourth-class office and the postmaster's compensation amounts to about $200 a year. Although the department set several dates for the examination of candidates for the office, no one ever appeared to take them or seemed to want the job. Chief of Police Sylvester is going to inaugurate a unique campaign of publicity to protect persons from being victims of robbers during In Campaign Against Crooks. the inaugural period. His idea is to aquaint the general public with the appearance of the thieves who have recently been arrested in different sections of the country, especially the pickpockets, and make their faces so familiar that they will be unable to remain on the streets many hours before they are identified. The plan the chief has adopted includes the establishment of miniature rogues' galleries in hotel lobbies, railroad and steamboat stations and other public places, so that persons who interest themselves enough to study the faces of the crooks will be in a position to cause their arrest. It is the intention of Maj. Sylvester to procure about 500 such pictures, have copies of them made, posted on cards and hung about the public places. he will place them in some of the larger business houses, he says, and in all places where they will attract attention, and he thinks much good will be accomplished. Chiefs of police of most of the larger cities already have been asked to assist in the work, and many pictures already have been received. As soon as the copies are made and the cards arranged, Maj. Sylvester says, they will be placed in public places. Heavier and taller children were the net results of the open-air schools of the District of Columbia, according to Health Officer William C. Wood- ward, who returned his annual report the other day. Dr. Woodward dwelt at length on the advantages of pureair instruction over that given in the classroom, and then, without any apparent attempt to criticize, declared that the United States government in its maintenance of its personally owned "fish and oyster wharf" here was maintaining "the most insanitary establishment in the District of Columbia for the preparation of food for sale." The death rate, despite this, was falling so rapidly, according to Dr. Woodward, that the district soon would become one of the most healthful places in the country. Surgeon General Rupert Blue, of the Public Health Service, through the state department, received this telegram from Thomas H. Bevans, American Vice Consul at Tampico, Mexico:— "I have the honor to report that during the last ten days millions of fish have been killed in the waters adjunct to Tampico. There have been several theories advanced as to the cause, but the most probable one is that they were killed by a submarine volcanic disturbance. The fish range in size from the six foot tarpon to the eighteen inch mullet. "These fish are now in a state of decomposition, causing much uneasiness and fear of an epidemic of yellow fever." FROM INDIAN TEPEE TO WASHINGTON FLAT INVENTOR OF DOUBLE-FLOWERING PETUNIA CROWN PRINCESS REFUSES TO KEEP HOUSE WILL BE HOSTESS TO THE NEW PRESIDENT No one would imagine that the rather handsome, splendidly proportioned brunette, who presides over a section of the claims division of the Indian office at Washington, and who is known to her fellow clerks as Mrs. Marie L. Baldwin, is really a three-quarter blood "red skin" with an Indian name. N-Dan-Sis, meaning the daughter of a chief Thoroughly cultured and speaking English far more correctly than some of her acquaintances to whom it is the mother tongue, Mrs. Baldwin is none the less an Indian and Uncle Sam prides himself on his sense of fairness in placing her where she has a part in settling the claims of dealers who furnish supplies to her own people. Her face is of an enviable olive tint, her hair, soft, brown and slightly waving, is luxuriant as is that of all women who have gone hatless through youth. Incidentally, she displays a truly "pale-face" vanity in this same adornment. One of her first remarks, after the caller had boldly enthused over her crowning glory, was "But I don't get any credit for it! Just because every second woman wears rats or puffs, or braids, or all three, everyone concludes that I do also." She has the large, dark, inscrutable eyes which cause so many students to insist that the red man came originally from the east. No suggestion of her eyelids are momentarily lowered It was an American woman, Mrs. Myrtle Shepherd Francis, of the can woman, Mrs. Francis, of the quaint old mission town of San Buena Ventura, Ventura-by-the-Sea, who recently succeeded simultaneously with the noted German hybridist in what seedgrowers of many nations have for years been striving to produce a self-feeding, double-flowering petunia. MARY E. The result of this young California floriculturist's splendid work with this popular flower is said to bid fair to revolutionize the double petunia business. In the six years that Mrs. Francis has been working and experimenting with petunias and in the creating of new flowers she has won wide recognition, and today, she is recognized, not only in America, but in England, in scientific and trade circles, and her recent achievements have made the name of Mrs. Myrtle Shepherd Francis known among hybridists of two continents. She is a member of the American Breeders' association, and her double-seeding petunia was announced in a recent issue of the American Breeders' Magazine, Washington, D. C. Mrs. Francis is the daughter of the late Mrs. Theodosla Burr Shepherd, known as the Mother of Flowers, or the feminine wizard of the plant world, who was recognized as one of the world's greatest hybridists. Mrs. Crown Princess Cecilia of Germany has signified her intention never to keep house again. She has become a disciple of the latest custom among the members of the higher circles of the fatherland and elsewhere — that of living in the fashionable hotels or boarding houses. PETER And O, what a rage it has put the kaiser in! He is not so angry at Cecile herself as he is at the Princess of Pless, who put the idea into his daughter-in-law's head. The emperor fears the toterting of traditions may follow this innovation among the high and mighty. The war lord, though progressive in many things, clings tenaciously to kingly prerogatives. A Hohenzollern's castle is his home and a noble's palace his domicile. He wants these things kept up. The crown princess says she likes the modern hotel. Mrs. William Corcoran Eustis, daughter of a former vice-president of the United States and wife of the chairman of the inaugural committee, will be hostess to the president and his wife and daughters at the inaugural ball on March 4. A While it is not probable, as has been generally stated, that Mrs. Eustis will lead the grand march with President Wilson, she will be the first to greet the to be quickly raised again—in itself a plainsman's habit—and then a faint tinge of crimson in their veining is revealed. But she is an Indian all the same, as she proudly insists, even though she talks without a trace of accent. "Indians never have any accent," she explained, "unless they have learned French or Spanish before English and permit a reminiscent hint of them to creep in. Our own language is made up of dead monotones, with each syllable pronounced and it enables us to speak alien tongues with whatever accent they require." Mrs. Baldwin chats as readily in French as in her childhood tongue; indeed, far more so, since, she confessed with reluctance, her knowledge of her native language is departing. For more than, half a dozen years she has been here in Washington. "Now, when I go near my own people," she confessed sorrowfully, "I hear whole sentences of which I know not the meaning. And that is a disgrace with them. Sometimes ago I was sent on a special trip for the office among the Indians and I realized then that I was growing frightfully far away from them—not only in speech but in dress, ideas and appearance. But in one thing an Indian never changes"—and unconsciously Mrs. Baldwin drew her figure up until she appeared to gain several inches—"I mean in the feeling of the heart. It explain why so many of us, after becoming educated, return to live the same as before." Listening, one caught the chant in her voice and saw visions of sweeping plains, a circle of indignant braves and, in their midst, a humiliated figure in store shoes and a college rig. Francis says: "It is my greatest ambition to round out the life work of my mother, which she felt was but begun and all things point to a realization of that ambition." Among her marvelous new creations in petunias, which are her specialty, are petunias of such extraordinary size and beauty in form, texture and color as to surpass all others; many of the hybridized species are in their rosette-like doubleness very similar to a carnation, while one of the favorites is the new single "orchid flowering," which bears a close resemblance to an orchid. The huge flowers are supported on long, graceful stems, and the dainty overlapping petals are exquisitely ruffled and fluted, and of a rich satiny texture, with the widest imaginable color range seemingly embracing all the delicate hues and tints of the rainbow. This energetic young woman has many interests, but first and above all else is her home, and she considers her petunia work an aside; yet in the six years that she has been manager of the business, aside from her marvelous new creations in petunias, she is conducting a most successful general florist business. Mrs. Francis is a member of various clubs and associations; since the advent of equal suffrage, delegates from the various womens' clubs in Ventura have been admitted to the local chamber of commerce. Mrs. Francis was the delegate from the Shakespeare club, of which she is the president for the ensuing year. In the chamber she is on the landmarks committee, which is a subject of great interest to her. The kaiser says he will have none of it. The crown prince likes the crown princess and likes her idea of liking the hotel. But—— Since the kaiser is so set against the idea the crown prince doesn't know just exactly what to do. The Princess of Pless is living at a hotel and says she will continue to do so. The kaiser rages, but the princess only smiles. And there you are. How it will end nobody knows. The Princess of Pless is really to blame for it all. This feud, primarily between one of the most powerful of Europe's rulers and one of the most beautiful women in the world, began when the princess suddenly became tired of her palatial home and took a large apartment in the most up-to-date hotel in Berlin. In doing this the princess gave birth to an idea that became immediately popular. Many of her friends followed her example. Thus the merry row extended. Her associates, one by one, closed up their homes and moved to fashionable boarding houses. presidential party when it enters the ball room and will follow close behind them on the arm of her husband to the promenade. The president and Mrs. Wilson will circle the room twice and will then be invited to a seat in the gallery, where they can see the dancing. Later they will be escorted by the inaugural committee, Mr. and Mrs. Eustis leading, to the supper room, where Mrs. Eustis will play the part of hostess to the distinguished guests. Mr. and Mrs. Eustis will have prominent seats on the stand near President-elect and Mrs. Wilson during the inauguration ceremonies, and among their duties will be to greet and make at ease the notables in Washington at that time.

This is a very useful hint to clean lavatory basins, marble washstands, etc. Put some powdered bathbrick into an old saucer and add a little paraffin oil to moisten. With a soft rag rub the article to be cleaned with this mixture, then wash with warm water. You will find that all stains and dirt will disappear. Parsley may be kept green and fresh all winter. Put it in a strong boiling hot brine of salt and water. Leave in a half hour and then hang it in a dry room with the blossoms down. Kept in this way it is as nice for flavoring soups, dressings, etc., as when it is freshly grown and gathered. Pot Roasted Chicken. Draw and clean one good sized chicken, rub on salt and pepper and dredge with flour, then truss it and lay on either side of the breast under the twine a strip of bacon. Put two tablespoons of butter and two of lard in a kettle and brown the chicken on all sides. Add one cup of boiling water, cover tightly and simmer two and a half or three hours, being careful not to let the water boll away, adding a little water from time to time. Remove the chicken when tender and superfluous fat from the gravy. Add as much water as required for the gravy and thicken with a little flour mixed with water. The gravy is greatly improved by adding a little sour cream. An old chicken can be made very palatable cooked in this way. Shredded Orange Peel. Four orange peels, cut them into strips like straws with an old pair of scissors; cover them with cold water and bring to a boll, then drain and cover with boiling water, and boil until tender; make a sirup the same as for the lemon rinds, put the shredded orange peel in this sirup and cook until transparent; dry on a sieve, and while drying dust occasionally with fine granulated sugar and pack away when dry in a box lined with wax paper. The sirup can be used for a sauce.—Farmers' Guide. Rose Salad. Boll five beets of uniform size, while hot pot cold water over them; drain and remove the skins; hollow out the centers with a sharp knife; cut the hollowed beets into petals, cutting down two-thirds of the way. In the centers drop a tablespoonful of mayonnaise dressing and around this arrange kernels of nuts. Serve on chilled lettuce leaves. Panocha. Three cups brown sugar, eight tablespoons of milk or cream, butter size of large walnut, boll until when tried in water it will form a waxy ball. Then remove from stove, add one tablespoon vanilla and beat five minutes, then add one-half cup or more of walnuts, cut in small pieces. Let cool and cut in small squares. Figs may be used instead of walnuts. A Big Gift to the Public THE DENVER REPUBLICAN DELIVERED TO SUBSCRIBERS AT SIXTY CENTS A MONTH. A reduction of more than 20 per cent on former rates.

The fad for having divans piled up with cushions of promiscuous hues is fortunately out of vogue, but an occasional cushion in the more formal drawing room, when it is really beautiful and artistic, is still a possession to be prized and is indeed a thing of beauty, and makes a most acceptable gift. Such a cushion, instead of being conspicuous and startling, should rather tone in with the general color scheme of the room, and none are more splendid than those made from harmonious pieces of tapestry which can now be gotten in such exquisite colors and designs. To buy them made up ready for use, is rather an impossibility for those of moderate means, but they are within the reach of almost every woman who is handy with her needle, and possesses the necessary patience. Odd ends of tapestry, or small remnants can be picked up very cheaply, and to make their beauty more pronounced as though the tapestry is woven by hand, outline the flowers or conventional designs or the pattern of which it is composed with a tarnished boulton braid in gold, which is round rather than flat, and couch this on with gold thread. To make the pillow the new oblong shape, add a strip of velvet to each end of the tapestry, and this velvet should match or tone in with the predominating shade in the tapestry. Where the velvet and tapestry meet may be finished with tarnished gold lace, and the same sort of a cord in gold is used around the cushion when it is complete. The back of the cushion is made of the plain velvet. "BRYDA" Dalinity Lunch Blouse In a Combination of Ivory and Yellow Chiffon and Lace Slip; Fine Lace Collar. Evening Shoes. Among the accessories of dress on which time and money are being lavishly expended this winter are evening shoes and buckles. For the former beautiful and costly brocades and damasks are employed and in colors to match the gowns, white and gold being much favored. Jeweled buckles of great price as well as those of paste are utilized for their adornment mounted on a semi-circle of plaited or plain satin, but two loops of black velvet ribbon are seen coming from the latter beneath the buckle. Satin flowers supply a touch of color. Fashionable Poles It is curious how the dress of today reflects the fashionable poise of the moment. The fashionable poise for the feminine figure is that which used to be called the Roman bend—we have had it before, though it was long since discarded for the Grecian bend, which was the antithesis of the First. For the Roman bend we have the oblique line of trimming in the skirts, and the opening in front over the foot, corresponding with the dragging downward at the back of the draperies. Fastidious Woman Knows Better Than to Overdo This Essential of the Toilet Table. There is a value in perfumes as a safeguard against contagion, but most women of refinement never overdo this use, but confine it to a delicate fragrance that never offends, as do gross common scents. The dainty woman selects a special perfume and uses this only in all her toilet articles, and it is a fad to select the fragrance of some flower that corresponds with the favorite color. She also has her satchets, perfume, toilet water, powder and soap to correspond. If any change is made it includes everything on the dressing table, for good taste decrees that only one favored scent is permissible for each individual. While a little really fine essence is delightful, a thimbleful of coarse alcoholic mixtures is disgusting to any sensitive nostril. Satchets of all sorts are very much used, from large padded linings for shelf, drawer or wardrobe, to smaller and more personal satchets that are tucked into the bodice or hidden in the leaf of the satin corsage flower so generally worn. HATS CATCH POPULAR FANCY The "Drake" and the "Queen Elizabeth" Have Won Much Favor Here and in England. The woman who admires the picturesque in hats will admire the "Drake" and Queen Elizabeth hats. The former, with flat, full tam-o'-shanter crown, plumes sweeping to the shoulder, is a predominant note in winter millinery. Velvet quills to match the crown and brim edged with narrow feather fringe are also a popular form of trimming. Corbeau blue and vandyke brown are favored colors for the "Drake" hat. The unlucky aigrette, despite the efforts to make it unfashionable, is enjoying no respite. Prices have soared to a fabulous figure, and it is used to trim many of the smartest "Drake" models. # The Queen Elizabeth hat has the sides of the brim curving upward. An exquisite example of this variety was of chestnut-brown velvet, with a white plume sweeping over the side. This was caught with a jeweled ornament. Waist Pattern Help. A waist pattern should be fitted right side out—as it is to be worn. Almost everyone has some variation in the two sides of the figure. One shoulder will be a trifle higher than the other and the hip on the opposite side a trifle lower than its mate, resulting in a slightly longer waisted underarm seam on that side than on the other. Now, if you fit the waist wrong side out, when you have stitched the seams and put it on right side out the fitting will be exactly reversed. The high shoulder will be in the side of the waist that was fitted to the low shoulder. New Fashion. A charming fashion recently revived at the Paris opera consists in pinning a couple of flowers upon the bodice of the simply draped gowns in white or black charmeuse. But these floral trimmings do not adapt themselves to the magnificent models in embroidered velvets, brocaded satins and gauzes recently launched upon the stage, nor do they figure on beaded creations. In the latter case the veiled effects in spangled tulle and lace, the draperies and the linings of damask and charmeuse give the required ornamentation to these beautiful toillets. Waist for a Velvet Sult. Another blouse designed to wear with a brown velvet skirt has in the front and back bib-like pieces of the velvet, which also forms the epaulettes. The body of the waist is of a soft, subdued blue chiffon, tucked in clusters. The front piece of the velvet is cut low to display a yoke embroidered in shades of browns and blues, and the inevitable touch of fur is given by bands of skunk, which mark the shoulder lines and finish the tucked chiffon sleeves, which barely reach over the elbow.
