EXTREME
COMPLI
Is the Attitude of the so Called N
Gives Some Logical Views
that Destiny Alone C
(By Dr. Frank Crane.)
Fifty years ago, in the year 1863 President Lincoln signed the proclamation which made the Negro a free citizen. Since then the "Negro question" has boiled along, and sometimes boiled over. All sorts of projects have been advanced, from shipping all black people to Africa to a systematic disfranchisement of them here by organized fraud. Southern gentlemen have torn their whiskers in a loud insistence that they would never submit to "Negro equality." Learned professors have tried to show us some "scientific" solution of the problem. And so on and so on.
The relation of two races, one of which has been held in bondage by the other, is extremely complicated, it is mixed up with sentimental quantities that are highly explosive.
Some who approach the question, "don't like Negroes," others are unpractical idealist, theorizers who cannot take account of human antipathies; still others are selfish and designing and foment trouble for their own advantage. It is pretty safe that no one perfectly understands the matter. It is a situation that destiny alone, in its slow and mysterious process of adjustment, can direct. If we acknowledged this fact it would do us all good.
But while no one knows the answer to the race problem, there are certain things everybody knows. And one of those things is that the safest, wisest thing to do, always and ever, is act with justice.
This is a very mysterious world we live in. No human mind can estimate the consequences of our acts. No one can forsee the unfoldings of Providence. But there are certain things that the experience of the race has demonstrated to pay always.
We know that justice is always best, that truth is better than falsehood, and honesty better than craft.
Justice demands that all children born into a nation shall have equal opportunity. To damn one child to ignorance and servitude and set another in luxury and power, for no fault or merit of their own, is not just.
Justice demands that every human being in the state have equal privilege of citizenship and franchise, of protection in law for his

life and property, and of eligibility of public office.
There is no passion that can so blind men to justice as race prejudice. There is no inferior race. A race inferior in one way may be superior in another. Every race has its own contribution to humanity. There are some characteristics of white men that it is fatal for black men to imitate; and some traits of black men it would do white men good to copy. All talk of "Negro Inferiority" is aside from the issue.
There is but one issue: to give the Negro a square deal. So long as we do not know precisely what to do in any case, it is always safe to do as we would be done by. In the game of human relationships the Golden Rule is trumps, and the rule holds, "In case of doubt lead trumps."
We can rest assured that if we do right, establish justice, and act fairly and humanly toward the Negro, time will clear the situation and the good sense of the American people will finally solve this as it has solved other difficulties. And certain it is that fraud, cruelty, unreasoning prejudice, injustice and selfishness will work ruin and wreck here as such things have worked wreck and ruin since the beginning of history.
Colored Man in It.
A historical study at Harvard university revealed the following: Negroes accompanied the first Spanish explorers and discoverers of America across the Isthmas of Panama with Balboa, and assisted in constructing the first ship that was launched in the Pacific. They were with Cortez in Mexico. A Negro accompanied William Clark of Lewis and Clark's expidition, which in 1840 explored the sources of the Missouri river and gained for the United States the vast and rich extent of land known as the Oregon country. Negroes were with DeSoto in 1640 and the first stranger who settled in the state of Alabama was one of the Negroes who accompanied DeSoto on his march through the state. Negroes were among the first adventurers to look for gold in California, and when John C. Fremont, in 1848, made his desperate and disasterous attempt to find a pathway across the Rocky mountains, he was accompanied by a Negro named Saunders.

THE ZION BAPTIST CH
DAVID E. OV
THE congregation and pastor of the Zion Baptist church desire to thank the citizens of Denver for their magnificent response to the efforts which presented the Williams' Jubilee concert at the Auditorium last week.
The prime object in attempting so large an undertaking was in order that Denver—white as well as black—might have an opportunity of witnessing Negro talent, culture and ability under the most favorable circumstances and at its very best. The unfortunate social conditions under which we labor make it a matter of extreme difficulty to place the Negro and his accomplishments before the leading white people to his advantage.
That the effort was a success is attested not only by the liberal and hearty newspaper report which appeared in the Republican, but also by the unstinted praise which comes from many white men and women prominent in Denver's social and business life, who are in a position to judge and whose verdict must be taken by the people at large.
The result, then, comes not specially or particularly in honor to the Zion congregation, but in a tangible, lasting benefit to the Negro community in this city. That magnificent production by talented, cultured Negro artists, before the flower of Denver's population, has lifted this race and every individual in it to a higher plane, intellectually and morally, in the estimation of the people who determine this community's sentiment. With this spirit and exulting in the success of this worthwhile accomplishment, we desire to thank and express our gratitude to every individual whose presence or activity in any way contributed to this justifiable end. Respectfully,

NEW SEGREGATION LAW.
(Boston Sun)
Disappointed but undaunted by the decisions of the courts declaring invalid two segregation ordinances, friends of such a measure will try again to draft one that will prevent Negroes from moving into white neighborhoods and which will be good law.
Attorney Milton Dashiell, who drafted the first segregation ordinance, which was held to be invalid, has prepared another, which he thinks will overcome the legal defects in the others, and City Councilman Samuel E. West, who introduced the ordinance which Judge Elliott declared invalid Thursday, says he will endeavor to have the case taken to the Court of Appeals.
The proposed ordinance, which has been prepared by Attorney Dashiell, is very simple in its terms and prohibits whites or blacks from moving into a block occupied entirely by persons of the opposite race, under a penalty of from $5 to $50 for each day of the violation, or imprisonment in jail for from 30 days to 12 months.
The same penalty is provided for the owner or agent of any building or part of building who shall permit it to be used in violation of the terms of the ordinance.
Councilman West said he would see Attorney-General Poe and State's Attorney Broening for the purpose of having an appeal taken from Judge Elliott's decision.

MISER PATENTED PROPERTY AT JASPER SHOWS RECORD VEIN—~
$20,000 TON IN GOLD STRIKE NEAR DURANGO—OPENING OF
THE LADY BELLE MINE AT EAGLE.
‘Western Newspaper Union News Service.
Monte Vista, Colo—The richest
strike in the history of this country
was made here in the Miser Patented
property at Jasper, eight miles below
Gilmore. The vein is 12 to 15 feet wide
and averages $1,485 a ton. There is 2
rich streak 1% inches wide in this
vein, which: the assays made by
Charles Foster, of the leasing com-
pany, show to be worth $32,532 a ton.
The ore consists mainly of free gold

AFRO-AMERICAN CULLINGS
Go where you please in the south and you will see the negro engaged in all branches of business and industry. In this city, where he handles thousands of dollars and easy work, the negro is a business nonentity, with but a few exceptions. The only business in this city in which the negro is engaged and in which he is a success is the drug and saloon business. There are a few dining rooms where the negro is also a success. The Bee has been the only successful newspaper that has been able to exist among the negroes. There have been all kinds of newspapers and editors in this city, from a weekly to "tri weakly," from a daily to a monthly, but they have failed. There are over 90,000 colored people in this city, three-tenths of whom never read a newspaper, and those who do read seem to cater to the people that abuse them.
The southern negro is a thrifty and successful individual. He knows how to run a bank and do other things that make him a commercial success. In this city the negro should be an independent commercial factor. We now need a first class business school. There is now great need for young men and women who understand how to conduct a business and how to keep books.
We need good typewriters and stenographers. These are not thoroughly taught in our schools. Our business high school is not what it should be. Everybody cannot teach, hence a business education should be taught our children. We favor the trade school, because they will prepare our boys and girls for future usefulness.
The young negro in the south is fast surpassing the northern negro. The northern negro is too proud to work. He doesn't want to soil his hands or make them hard.
We need more trade schools south. Higher education is a great factor, but trade schools will be a greater factor to the negro.—The Washington Bee.
How many young men in your community can you depend upon to take the places of the men who are managing the affairs of the church and the school and the state when these older men have passed away? The nation must have men of character and ability to rule in its affairs. Can we point to the boys and young men about us and say they will meet the requirements?—The Torchlight.
Let us hope so any how, in spite of the mass of evidence that seems to point the other way. Many years ago there were a half dozen or more boys in every community when people would point to with the prediction that they would make their mark in life. And these youngsters would constantly talk about what they were going to do—they worked to that end. Their zeal seemed to be in inverse proportion to their opportunities. Young men of today discuss parties, receptions, base ball, foot ball, peg-legs, swell times, etc. However, it may be that the coming men who will meet every test and lead the advance in any and all directions are now in obscurity—making hay and laying it up against the day when they will receive the summons. Progress of all the past has been conditioned upon this fact: Whenever an emergency has arisen, calling for a man, destiny as sent him forth fully equipped and prepared.—Old Hickory.
COLORED MEN IN ASSOCIATION.
Colored business men met at the Baker hotel, 3312 Wabash avenue, to organize a permanent business association. More than 100 merchants, representing many businesses and professions, attended the meeting. The object of the association will be to encourage a closer relation among the colored people and to give employment to the more intelligent and thrifty members of the race. Among those who delivered addresses at a banquet which followed the meeting were M. T. Bailey, manager of the Milton Mercantile agency; Jesse Binga, banker and real estate dealer; Col. John R. Marhall of the Eighth regiment, I. N. G., and R. R. Jackson of the Fraternal Printing company.—Chicago Daily News.

CARAMEL CAKE.
To make a caramel cake which will be found delicious, take half cupful of butter, one cupful of sugar, the yolks of three eggs, half cupful of milk, one and three-quarters cupfuls of flour, two and one-half teaspoonfuls of baking powder, the whites of two eggs beaten stiff, three-quarters cupful of walnut meat broken in pieces. Mix the ingredients in the order given. Bake 45 minutes in a moderate oven. Cover with caramel frosting, which is made as follows: Boil together one and one-fourth cupfuls of brown sugar, one-third cupful of water and one-fourth cupful of white sugar until it strings. Pour this gradually, while beating constantly, on the beaten whites of two eggs, and continue beating until mixture is nearly cool. Set the pan containing the mixture in a pan of boiling water and cook over the range, stiring continually until it becomes granular around the edge of the pan. Remove from the pan of hot water and beat until the mixture will hold its shape. Add one-fourth cupful of English walnut meats, broken in pieces.

Western Newspaper Union News Service.

His sacrifices will lead a community and perhaps a who a well-chosen idea, frugality and useless. Uses begin in the same manner, steadily improvement and so success. But the sacrifice of a necessary. The Negro is too eagle
THE best of everything in the world is gained by sacrifice. Nothing permanent or good is added to the world's store, or to any nation's or race's credit, by that narrow selfishness which takes no account of the good of others. The Jewish religion was founded on the idea of individual sacrifice of worldly goods. The modern Christian religion, with its vast and endless flood of benefits to humanity, sprang from the atoning life and death of Jesus, who took the burden of the world's sins, that the world might have wisdom, light and salvation. But it is ever in accordance with God's immutable law that men and the world shall prosper through sacrifice.
We who live today are enjoying the benefits arising out of the sacrifices of those who lived a generation or more before us. Sixty years ago, men and women who had left civilization and luxury far behind, were enduring all manner of hardships and suffering death to open up this Western country where, today, we have but to stretch out the hand to touch the pulse of the whole civilized world. And yet as the pioneers of the '50s and '60s were blazing the way for us, others of today are pushing out from us and carrying the torch of progress into other dark and unknown corners of the earth. It is true that in all this centuring, some idea of personal benefit leads the pioneer, but that idea is also connected with the expectation that the world's tide of progress will blow in their wake. They sacrifice ease and tranquility for the greater good of those who are to follow them, including first their own progeny. But the frontiersman is not alone in applying this principle. The man who leaves the crowded city now and takes up land from whence the dangers of the early days have fled, and who, with the patient help of a devoted wife, plods and sacrifices and works to develop that land, places himself in the category of noble pioneers. He may know that the steady nursing of natural resources may, in ten or twenty years, bring him a ranch upon which rare crops of fruit or cereals are raised, or where some valuable breed of stock is bred, and that then his latter years will be easy, but better than that will be his knowledge that he has set an example and opened a way for many others to follow. His sacrifices will leave a permanent record upon the progress of a community and perhaps a whole race. Intelligence, patient devotion to a well-chosen idea, frugality and willingness to bear hardships are the requisites.
Business enterprises begin in the same manner. A small beginning, self-denial, determination, steady improvement and a smile for hardships are the step-stones to success. But the sacrifice of present ease and profligacy is absolutely necessary. The Negro is too eager to enjoy and too unwilling to sacrifice.

GENERALLY speaking, the sharpest race prejudice in the South is exhibited by the poorer class of white people, whether farmers, artisans or unskilled workers, who come into active competition with the Negroes, or from politicians who are seeking the votes of this class of people. It is this element which has driven the Negroes out of more than one community in the South and it commonly forms the lynching mobs. A similar antagonism of the working classes exists in the North wherever the Negro has appeared in large numbers—as I shall show when I come to write of the treatment of the Northern Negro.
On the other hand, the larger land owners and employers of the South, and all professional and business men who hire servants, while they dislike and fear the Negro as a race (though often loving and protecting individual Negroes), want the black man to work for them. More than that, they MUST HAVE HIM; for he has a practical monopoly on labor in the South. White men of the employing class will do almost anything to keep the Negro on the land and his wife in the kitchen—so long as they obedient and unambitious workers.
The Negro's improvement, his slow but steady growth in culture and capacity, is the thing that galls the poorer classes of white people. To imagine himself a less fit human being that a Negro severely wounds the pride of the white man of small culture. 'The more ignorant he is the greater is his prejudice. The accompanying fear of a growing competition in the labor field makes the situation all the more aggravating, for the struggle for existence is not most easily met by those who have the least difficulty in preparing for it. But the inflamed sentiment arising out of these conditions of embittered pride and fear of material superiority, does not promise well for the future of either race. A change of some kind will have to come over existing conditions. The justice of the case demands laws that will cultivate the higher instincts of both races.
These the politicians will oppose as long as selfishness and cupidity are allowed to hold sway in American public affairs. But this will not be forever, for the salvation of the country depends upon the universal realization of those ideals upon which the earliest struggles of the nation were founded.

THE educational crusade against consumption which is being pressed upon the people everywhere, for the good of all, is most effective in impressing upon careless persons, or those totally unaware of their needs, the necessity for observing a few plain rules and the inculcation of a few simple habits of care and cleanliness in their daily intercourse with other people. It is thoroughly established that consumption arises from contact in some way with a consumptive, or by the taking into one's system a consumptive germ that has been thoughtlessly deposited by a consumptive where it has been taken up by the person in whom the disease develops. To destroy the germ in the sputum of the consumptive is the chief aim and advice of physicians, and some of the rules for the patient to follow for his own good and the good of others are thus given: "Cary paper napkins to spit in, and a paper bag to keep them in, and burn them. Do not let any spit set on your clothing, or your lips and hands or your bed clothes or carpets or furniture, or on anything about you, wherever you may be. . . Always wash your lips and hands before eating or drinking, and rinse out your mouth. . . Avoid hand-shaking and kissing. These customs are dangerous to you as well as to others. They may give others consumption; they may bring you colds and influenzas which will greatly aggravate your disease and may prevent your recovery. Do not cough if you can help it. When you cough severely, hold a paper napkin to your mouth, so as not to throw out spit, and burn the napkin. Sit out of doors all you can. Don't take any exercise except upon the advice of your doctor. Always sleep with your windows open no difference what the weather may be. Avoid fatigue. Don't take any medicine unless it has been prescribed by your physician. Don't use alcoholic stimulants of any kind.
Don't eat pastry or dainties. They do not nourish you, and they may upset your stomach. Take your milk and raw eggs whether you feel like it or not. Keep up your courage. Make a brave fight for your life. Always keep in mind that consumption can be cured in many cases, and that it can be prevented in all cases. If your own disease is too far advanced for you to recover, console yourself with the idea that you can keep those who are dear to you from getting it. . . . These are rules worth knowing and remembering. Perhaps every reader of The Colorado Statesman has a friend who is a consumptive. Let him see to it that these matters are brought to that friend's attention.

CARL M. LINDQUIST a candidate for commissioner of safety. Everybody in Colorado knows Carl Linquist, but every body dosen't know that he is a candidate for office. He has served in the city council and in the state legislature. During these years of public service not one crooked act is charged against him that we have yet heard of. His record is clean. Of those who know him, no commendation is necessary. Those who do not, need only to investigate to be convinced of these facts. Mr Lindquist has been in business in Denver since 1887, and employs 145 people.

DR. W. H. SHARPLEY.
Candidate for Commissioner of Social Welfare.
Probably no candidate for this office is better known and more deserving of the people's consideration than Dr. Sharpley. Always of a broad mind and liberal disposition, Dr. Sharpley immediately commends himself to our citizens of color. During his term of office as health commissioner, he was more than painstaking in the treatment of our people. Antioxin for the treatment of diphtheria.
D
DR. W. H. SHARPLEY. and excellent, proficient care of all who entered the Steele Hospital, is a legacy left by Dr. Sharpley which especially endears him to colored people. Dr. Sharpley has lived in Denver over thirty-five years. Was police surgeon five years and health commissioner for eight years. He is the father of the present efficient milk ordinance and the meat inspection ordinance. Best of all, Dr. Sharpley is a fair-minded, liberal man, and has as little prejudice as it is possible for a man to have. The above requisites together with his ability and experience, should cause every voter to seriously consider Dr. Sharpley as a first choice for Commissioner of Social Welfare. Election May 20.
THE MOFFAT TUNNEL CHARTER AMENDMENT.
This amendment has the approval of all' of the commercial organizations of the city, is endorsed by the governor and mayor, the newspapers and by substantially every business enterprise in the city.
The amendment, if carried, will authorize the city of Denver to assist in the building of the tunnel. It will give employment to thousands of laborers and several million dollars will be distributed for supplies—all within the state. The city is to own the tunnel. It is fully protected so that the railway company finally takes it off of the city's hands at full cost. There is no doubt in the minds of the committee having the matter in charge for the combined commercial organizations of the city that the railroad will fully carry out its contract and that Denver will be placed on a transcontinental line to Salt Lake City without any expense to the city of Denver.
KATHERINE KILKER McGOVERN.
Candidate for Commissioner of Social Welfare.
In these days when women are actively entering the business world, there is much fear abroad that the home may suffer by the exchange. The demands of home life and of the civic needs are each so incessant that there is imminent danger of sacrificing one to the other. Among those women who have met his problem and have been able to "make good" both as a home maker and as an efficient factor in public life is Mrs. Katherine Kilker McGovern, wife of the well-known undertaker, E. P. McGovern. While Mrs. McGovern, who is a candidate for the office of commissioner of social welfare, has reared a family of six children and seen them graduated from the best colleges of the state.
M. H.
MRS. KATHERINE KILKER McGOVERN she has given as freely of her personality to the affairs of the "outside world." During her forty years residence in Denver her name has been the inspiration of many charitable projects and many political reforms which Denver is enjoying today. As treasurer of the Jane Jefferson Democratic Club and as a member of the Woman's Club she has introduced movements for the city's betterment. The office of commissioner of social welfare is peculiarly suited to a woman, and public opinion has set aside that office for a woman, and it is hoped that this office will be filled by a woman of Mrs. McGovern's type—one who will bring both efficiency and personality into politics.

THOMAS F. McGREW.
Candidate for Commissioner of Safety.
Taking up my residence in Denver in September, 1890. I have followed the Real Estate, Insurance and Loan business continuously since that time. Have been actively engaged in this line of business for myself during the past 14 years. The only political position I have ever filled was that of Fire Commissioner of the Fire and Police Board and served as such from June 1st, 1912, to February 1st, 1913. Many things came up to contend with during this period not usual to the regular duties of the Fire Commissioner and I was in service continually during this time. The Cherry Creek flood came upon us and I was in service from 3 p. m. Sunday until 3:25 a. m. Tuesday continuously. We distributed hose to all business men who applied for same until we almost crippled the department however, we did not lose one section of hose and we received the thanks of the business men for the accommodations extended. We raised $6,240 for the Convention of the Fire Chiefs, of which amount their still remains a balance of over $760, which could be placed in the Firemens Pension Fund. We successfully gave the Firemens Ball, which had not been given for ten years or more, some netting about
M. B.
THOMAS F. McGREW
$4,000 for the pension fund; Engine company No. 3 (colored) gave a ball which netted about $100 for the pension fund, so that you will notice, should you transfer the balance of $760 from the chiefs convention fund to the pension fund, you will readily see that during the year we added about $5,000 to the pension fund, and should these dances have been given annually during the past ten years the pension fund would have been benefited to the extent of $50,000 as well as interest on same. We increased the roster of the department to 225 men, the largest number of men the department has ever contained, and at the same time carried the department to a $16,000 credit balance, out of which we purchased four run-abouts for the assistant chiefs, one $5,000 sixty-five foot aerial truck, together with horses, harness and other equipment for same, two fire house locations for the sixteenth ward, helmets for the men, nozzles and other
equipment. I feel this a record that one can well feel proud of and should the people elect me to the office that I aspire to, that of Public Safety, same will receive my untreing efforts, and I believe I will meet with the same success as your Commissioner of Safety as I did while acting as your fire commissioner.

M. T. O'Connor.
Candidate For Commissioner of Public Safety.
Mr. M. T. O'Connor, who is a candidate for commissioner of public safety, is a man well known in our city, for 20 years a prosperous business man; a man who is a large taxpayer, and a man who has borne an excellent reputation. He was for several years secretary of the Plasterers' Union, which is one of the largest labor organizations in this city. Mr. O'Connor is one of those kind of citizens that go to make up a progressive city. He thinks no good citizen advocates what is commonly called an "open town." It is against good morals, good government and good principles. But every broad minded citizen believes in equal rights to all, which means that thinking people believe that just so long as no one person or association violates the law of common decency, the law-abiding citizen of liberal views has just as many rights as the narrow minded citizen of narrow views—and at the same time both have the right to follow their respective paths unhindered by the other, as long as neither violates the moral obligations of the law and of good citizenship.
Mr. O'Connor is a broad-minded man, one who has at all times look-
J. B. H.
M T O'CONNOR
ed to the welfare of the public;
having during his 20 years as a
citizen of Denver never taken part
in any campaign, but was at all
times in favor of home industry
and was a legitimate builder of
Denver.
Mr. O'Connor says:
"Denver is necessarily a city of amusement. For various reasons, the people who live here demand those liberties that are guaranteed by the constitution of the United States. There may be some who do not believe in any amusement that keeps the resident out late at night If so, they are entitled to the right to retire early. In the same breath, there may be those who, for one reason or another, desire to remain out as late as midnight, or even later. They are entitled to the same personal privileges as are accorded to the residents who desire to retire early. I wish to say that if I am elected to the office of commissioner of public safety that I will not molest any law abiding citizen, so long as he keeps within the bounds of the law, and that I will insist on, furthermore, I wish to say that everyone will get a square deal from a man who has pledged himself to be on the square.

faithfully if elected. A square deal to all men in my business is my platform, and knowing the good results that accrue from continually acting this way, I cannot but put the same in action in my public life. A man who is thoroughly conservant with the City must necessarily be acquainted with the needs of its improvement and the lasting benefits to be derived from such improvements. Feeling that there must be confidence placed in me by the people who requested me to become a candidate, I give the assurance that whatever lies in my power to assist in making Denver one of the most beautiful cities of the world, and worthy of its progressive citizens, the same shall be done. Don't forget—election May 20th.
For Commissioner of Safety
The policy of this candidate is that Denver be an up-to-date city and live up to its name as the "Playground of America." In his experience as a member of the fire department, being a worker and executive officer, he feels that he has the necessary fitness for the position he now seeks; and in his spirit of fair play for such laws that will cater to the betterment and not the detriment of the people.

he does not indorse a wide open nor hermetically sealed Denver. His cooperation with the Juvenile Court, morals commission and other agencies to reduce and eliminate crime will certainly be appreciated, as also his connections with various business associations which garrison him with the ability to grasp the live issues of the city at present, and make him thoroughly capable of dealing with them. The Colorado Statesman urges its subscribers and the public in general to bear the date of election, May 20th, in mind.

Mrs. Claia O'Neal, 84 years of age, died at her son's residence, 1425 East 16th avenue, last Saturday, after an illness of several weeks. The funeral was held Tuesday from the residence in the presence of her large circle of friends.
Word was received last week from Los Angeles, California, of the death of two of Denver's old and respected citizens, Mr. Thomas Taylor and Mr. George Smith. They both have a host of friends in Denver who will be pained to hear of their demise.
Mrs. Thomas Campbell received the sad news last Tuesday of the death of her sister, who died at her home in New York after an illness of only one week. Mrs. Campbell left Tuesday night to attend the funeral. She has many friends in Denver who sympathize with her in her bereavement.
A wedding of interest to many is that of Mrs. Ella McKenzie and Mr. J. C. Butterworth of Guthrie, Okla. The bride was one of Denver's popular widows and a member of the Widows' Club. The groom is one of Guthrie's prosperous citizens. We wish them a happy voyage through life's journey.
The famous Williams Jubilee Singers was the attraction at the Auditorium Friday night of last week and that their concert was pleasing goes without saying. The big auditorium was filled with music loving people whose appreciation of every number was evidenced by vigorous applause. Personally each member of the company is a star and has long since won the hearts of the citizens of Denver, who will always greet them with a full house.
Palmer Berry of 2822 Stout street entertained a few friends at whist last Saturday night. The teams comprised S. R. Lewis and J. H. Palmer against Palmer Berry and S. H. Hobson, and at the close of the series the score stood 7 to 6 in favor of Messrs. Lewis and Palmer. It was a battle royal as well as a close finish and it was not until the smoke had cleared away from high grade Havanas and the last cards played before the referee and score keeper, Miss Anna Blair, could declare to whom the honors belonged. During the evening several bottles of Mumm's extra and a variety of other wines were tapped, which added much "ginger" to the occasion. Miss Elsie McWilliams presided at the piano and rendered some choice selections, while Miss Blair, assisted by Mrs. James McWilliams and Mrs. Mollie Blair, served a sumptuous menu, which was highly enjoyed by all. It was a late hour before the guests departed, congratulating Mr. Berry as an ideal host. Mr. Berry is formerly of San Antonio, where he was considered as one of the jollest young men of the Alamo City, and he is setting a hot pace for the elites of the Queen City.

Over one hundred dollars were realized and it is expected that the one hundred and fifty dollar mark will have been reached when the final report will have been made at the next monthly meeting. A more faithful and zealous band of church workers is nowhere to be found than are the members of this circle. Mrs. Mae E. Byrd came in for special mention for taking such splendid care of the literary side of the festival. Misses Verona Mason, Mary Colston and Gracie Helm were the fortunate ones in the Negro doll contest. Rev. A. M. Ward held quarterly meeting at Shorter last Sabbath and the spiritual fervor was at high water mark at all the services. Sisters Mattie Earl, Ethel Miller, both of Colorado Springs, and Jessie Johnson of Washington, D. C., were welcomed into our communion
Our officers handed the financial side of the quarter with ease and marked success. Brother F. T. Bruce, leader of class No. 1 carried off the laurels, having reported $20.65. Rev. T. H. Wiseman, the popular young pastor of Boulder and the Sankey of the Colorado conference, preached the communion sermon. Mr. C. H. Murray and son of Chatham, Ont., and Mr. and Mrs. H. C. Ellison and H.

To be prosperous, a town must be open; not wide open, but open."—Dennis Gibbons—Commissioner Public Safety.
What with theorists and quack reformers on the one hand and gangsters on the other, we need a change in city government. Back to honesty and common sense, is my slogan. I believe in a restricted red-light district and in firm, impartial but reasonable regulation of the liquor traffic.
I believe in liberty, the watchword of the Negro race in America, and in fair-play, a quality admired and, from thirty years' experience I dare say, practiced by the colored people of Denver. Give me your vote Mr. Colored man or woman and I will carry out to your satisfaction, my belief that government should be administered without regard to race or color.
In the name of the great Negroes who did much and said little, of Toussaint L'Overture the Haitian, of Booker T. Washington the American, I, who would act rather than talk, appeal to the colored people of Denver for support in the coming election. I need your vote.

"Here's a Journayman, not an Apprentice."
In availing myself of the opportunity to express my view on the Commission Form of Government and for which I am a candidate at the election on May 20th, I will endeavor to be as brief as possible, yet clear and concise.
* First—Do I believe the Commission Form of Government will be a success?
The Commission, Form of Government, just like any other form of
CHAS T. POWER
government, depends for its success upon the integrity, ability and representative capacity of the men through whom the people endeavor to express themselves in a political sense, as a community, state or nation.
Therefore, a public official can owe no allegiance, be under no obligation to any institution other than the sovereign citizenship of the community that he would represent. Consequently, I will assume the duties of the office I seek, free and untrammeled, to represent the interests of the entire community in every detail.
The first duty of government officials is to establish industry by bringing manufacturing interests to the city, that everyone may be able to obtain lucrative employment.
When the government legislates for the benefit of the laborer it legislates not alone for the people of the present time but for posterity as well. No law that enables the laborer to better his condition has ever proved to be an unjust law.
The greatest advances in civilization have been made by the enactment of laws that made men equal in the opportunities of life.
These are my political principles will ever be, whether elected or not.

FEET DEMAND PROPER CARE
Are Hardworked Members of the Body and Deserve Better Treatment Than They Receive.
Women who spend hours caring for their hands pay little attention to their feet. They are such hardworked members of the body that they deserve better treatment.
Feet are best kept in condition by shoes that fit. Never economize in shoe leather, and do not yield to vanity and get footgear that is too small.
Frequent bathing keeps the feet from being tired and swollen and it prevents roughness of the skin that leads to callous spots.
Water in which a bit of washing soda has been dissolved is restful. Hot salt water is equally refreshing, while a vigorous rubbing with alcohol will quickly relieve a burning sensation.
Pumice stone, used frequently, keeps the skin smooth. It is especially necessary on the heels and on the ball of the foot, where the weight of the body rests in walking. Never cut the nails too short, as they are more likely to become ingrown. And file them smooth with sandpaper, so they will not catch and pull the threads of your stockings. Occasionally visit a chiropodist. He will detect any irregularity in the growth of nails and money and pain are saved.
Rick-Rack Braid.
Twenty-five years and more ago every one who had a moment to spare was making lace from the so-called rick-rack braid. There were collars of rick-rack, cuffs of rick-rack, edgings of rick-rack, and even entire overdresses for the small daughter made of this braid. Within a short time the tiny bundles of the braid have again appeared in the stores, and have made a strong bid for popularity, according to the Newark News. Already one sees some very attractive needlework made with this braid as a foundation. Bandings of it are being used for trimming wash gowns and some exceptionally pretty table dolllies and runners are edged with rick-rack trimming.
Aluminum Shower for Bride.
While the bride to whom such a function would be helpful is still showered and wisely with linen, kitchen belongings or provisions, even these time-honored affairs are apt nowadays to be given with some new twist without losing their practical character.
For instance, many brides this year will be showered with aluminum instead of the ordinary kitchen tins and enamels. This is, of course, more expensive than the tin shower, but it is more worth while, and by selecting the smaller necessaries or by combining funds for the larger articles everyone's purse can be suited.
The skirt has a shaped edge to right front, which is laid on the left in a wrapped seam; buttons and loops trim the upper part, and a material panel is let in at foot.
The bodice has a large collar and small revers of purple satin, these turn back from a vest of finely tucked net; buttons and a lace frill trim the front.
The lower part of sleeve has the fulness set under the upper in flat pleats; the cuffs are deep and shaped in a point at upper edge.
Hat of purple Tagel, trimmed with a rope of small flowers.
Materials required: 5 yards serge, 46 inches wide, $ \frac{3}{4} $ yard satin 20 inches wide, $ \frac{1}{4} $ yard tucked net 18 inches wide, 7 buttons, $ \frac{1}{2} $ yard lace for front.

Newest Handkerchiefs.
Embroidered handkerchiefs are used more generally than ever before, and the woman who need not spend hours embroidering shirt waists and linen dresses will surely find time for initialing at least her own handkerchiefs. Hand hemstitched handkerchiefs of sheer linen can be bought for 75 cents in a quality worth embroidering. Wreaths, single initials or three in a row, or irregular banding of embroidery all around the handkerchief can be made.
CHURCH IN LIMELIGHT
PLACES WHERE PRESIDENTS
WORSHIP IN PUBLIC EYE.
Fascinating History of the New York Avenue Presbyterian Church— Pastor on Board Trustees of Princeton University — Adds More to Annals.
A general interest is naturally taken in the church which the president at-
tends. It is pointed out to thousands of curious tourists as one of the show places of Washington. Its services 'attract large numbers who frankly come only in the hope of catching a glimpse of the president and his family. Its pastor also holds a higher rank among his colleague, and
ed out to thousands of curious tourists as one of the show places of Washington. Its services 'attract large numbers who frankly come only in the hope of catching a glimpse of the president and his family. Its pastor also holds a higher rank among his colleagues and basks in the limelight of his distin-guished parishioners.
One of the last acts of President Taft's official life was to lay the corner stone for the new All Souls' Unitarian church. This is the congregation to which he belonged during his residence here. In the same way the Dutch Reform church, which President Roosevelt attended, built a new edifice during his administration. When he entered into office the church consisted of one room, and it was determined to erect a more dignified and worthy structure. While the building of it was going on, the original room, which is now used for the Sunday school, was moved back and the services were held in it. The rude plank walk to it was each Sunday dignified by the tread of President Roosevelt on his way to the humble place of worship. As a result of these two new buildings, considerable interest attaches to the Presbyterian church in which President Wilson will worship during his residence in Washington, and there is some wonder whether it, too, will find it necessary to build a new home in consequence of the fame that accrues to each "Church of the President."
Te New York Avenue Presbyterian church has a fascinating history, and now, with the coming of another president to Washington, it is about to add more to its annals. The fact that Dr. Radcliffe, the pastor, is on the board of trustees of Princeton university, and thus a personal friend of Mr. Wilson, adds interest to the latter's future church worship, President John Quincy Adams was a frequent attendant of this congregation and a trustee during his administration. At one time he gave his check for $1,200 to meet church emergencies. At another he advanced the same amount to assist the par or in purchasing a home, and later, when the pastor desired to sell, bought the house at its increased value.
Following Jackson's second term Martin Van Buren sometimes visited this church, and Harrison, who succeeded him, with his secretary of the treasury, Thomas Ewing, was an attendant. President Polk was a member of the congregation. President Pierce was regular both at morning and evening services, and was often at the weekly meetings. He held that every public man should set an example of reverencing religion. It is a suggestive side light upon the church to find that President Pierce attended public worship twice there upon the Sabbath and that he and Mrs. Pierce entertained the Sabbath school of this church as specially invited guests at the White House.
SHE IS ONLY WOMAN DEAN
Ellen Spencer Mussey Has Won a New Distinction Before the Supreme Court.
Mrs. Ellen Spencer Mussey, dean of the Washington College of Law and the only woman dean in the country, has won new distinction, this time as Portia, appearing before the United States Supreme court. The case, of course, is immaterial. The advocate has everything. But one woman has preceded Mrs. Mussey in an oral argument before the United States Supreme court, and that is Mrs. Belva A. Lockwood. Mrs. Lockwood drafted a bill admitting women to appear before the highest court of the nation, and was the first woman to be admitted to that court under that new law. Mrs. Lockwood has since had four important cases before the Supreme court of the United States. She has been successful in three of these cases. In the last case Mrs. Lockwood obtained a judgment for $5,000,000 in a Cherokee Indian case, in which she represented the Cherokees. She argued the case in 1906, and the money was distributed in 1910.
Business of Housekeeping.
Business of Housekeeping.
If women would only make housekeeping a business and run it on a business basis it would lose many of its burdensome features. Slipshod housekeeping can never be satisfactory and is always accompanied by useless (because it is disjointed) labor. A time and a place, a how and a why for everything sound the keynote of successful housekeeping, as they do of any well-conducted business. When this fact is thoroughly assimilated, then will housework be lifted from the ranks of drudgery and become a profession which any woman may be proud to follow.
DICK 2EPP'S ROMANTIC HOME
Now Part or Rock Creek National Park; Was Once Tilled as Small Farm.
One of the romantic spots in Rock Creek park, and one which few persons visit, is the little field which Dick Zepp tilled for many years before that part of Rock Creek and Broad branch country became a national park. An old chestnut tree stands where Zepp's home was. The tree cast its shade on Zepp's house for many summers. On the east edge of the field, over where the pines swish in the winter wind, and of course sough and sigh in the airs of summer, you may see old furrows. Plow marks are very persistent in a stiff clay soil or where pines or woods grow up protect the furrows from erosion. This field is now the northern jumping ground of the park. It is not nearly so well patronized or so much used by Washington horsemen as the hurdle field where old Jane Dickson and her family lived for ever so many years. However, some of the horsemen of the park find their way over there.
An old road, scarcely more than a woodland trace, runs north to the military road, and south from this field leads a saddle path, which winds through deep woods and down steep hills to a dirt road. You can pass under the cement bridge which spans a ravine and over which this dirt road passes, and the saddle path will finally bring you out on the edge of Rock creek, where the creek is really rocky and where the water roars.
At the creek edge you will turn to your right, because you must know that the water is running toward the city, and after a stiff up and down hill ride or walk you will come to the confluence of Rock creek and Broad branch and find yourself once more in the strong tide of park travel.
This north jumping field is a very quiet place. It is a broad hilltop. To the west and on considerably lower ground is one of the smooth roads over which automobiles whiz, but this road may easily be put out of view and it is far enough away that the sound of autos will not reach you. Through the pines may be seen the trace of numerous old roads, some of them now not more than rabbit paths. In this quiet place you can light your pipe and take a day dream while your horse nibbles at the sparse green that is just beginning to come up.
WOULD ERECT CLUB HOME
Federated Women's Clubs of District of Columbia May Put Up Office Building.
The Federated Women's clubs of the District of Columbia are making a tremendous effort to erect for themselves a club home. The building is felt by women interested in the matter to be a real need of the city, and no doubt it is. There is not a city half the size of Washington in the United States but that is better supplied with club homes and convention halls. Nobody ever connected with the government in Washington has felt it necessary to interest themselves along these lines. While definite plans for its size and scope have not been made, it is intended to make it a woman's building for the varied interests of women. Primarily, it is planned to be a place with numerous meeting rooms, where the several women's clubs and organizations of the city may hold their meetings. Living rooms are to be provided, too, for visiting women, and a cafe, kitchens and banquet room are to be included.
The most ambitious go further and call for a modern office building, with an auditorium, roof garden, gymnasium, swimming pool, lecture rooms and other features—all for the convenience and instruction of women. The offices would be rented only to professional and business women, and the whole building, from basement to roof garden, made into a sort of stronghold of femininity. Domestic science courses, women's exchanges, employment bureaus, and almost every other activity of interest to women would have a place within this "woman's building."
Big Shipment.
The biggest shipment of postage stamps in the history of the postoffice department was sent out recently. Over 170,000,000 stamps were brought from the bureau of engraving and printing in bulk to the city postoffice, where the stamps were separated for distribution to postoffices situated all over the country. The work of transferring the stamps from the bureau to the postoffice and then to the Union station was carefully planned to prevent a hold-up or robbery. A half-dozen men guarded the motor van. The work was done in record time. Three hours after the first load had entered the postoffice the last two-cent stamp was on its way to the Union station.
Friendship.
A little boy got out of bed wrong one morning and was so hateful all day that his father finally found it necessary to punish him.
A little while after the ordeal was over his mother found him out back of the barn tenderly caressing and petting an old ram that was pastured there. Her heart was touched by this display of kindheartedness on his part and she watched him tenderly for some time. Then, walking over to where he sat, she inquired:
"What makes my little boy so good to the old sheep?"
He did not stop or look up but answered, stifling a sob:
"Cause he just bunted pa."

Investigation of Infant Mortality
to Be Thorough.
Probe’ to Reach, Small as Wel! as
Large Cities, and Work Will Be
‘Taken Up and Completed in
One Place at Time.
Washington.—An investigation of
{nfant mortality that is something out
of the ordinary has just been inaugu-
rated by the children’s bureau of the
department of labor. It is different
in that it goes out of the beaten tracks
of such investigations. Instead of
going through the large cities it will
cover the smaller towns, where the
mortality records are not kept 80
completely as in the larger cities.
Miss Julia C, Lathrop, chief of the
children’s bureau, who has just re-
turned from a visit to the south, de-
clared that while the investigation
had been started she could not at
this time estimate when the data
would be complete or even approxi-
‘mately estimate how long it would
take to compile the data, leaving out
the amount of time which will be
consumed in tabulating it and putting
ft into shape where any sort of con-
clusions may be reached.
‘The work will be taken up and
completed in one city at a time.
This, of course, will require more
time than if it were started simul-
taneously in various parts. of the
country, but under the circumstances
this latter course cannot be pursued.
‘The investigators will go to a town
and take the births for a given year.
Having .ascertained these the real
work will begin. For the probers
will seek to learn the conditions un-
der which the babies were reared and
whether they survived the first and
subsequent years of their young life.
Not only will the questions cover
the period of the baby's early life,
but will take into consideration every
condition under which the child lived.
Whether its parents were able to pro-
yide it with sufficient nourishment;
whether {t attended school, and if it
did, how long; whether or not it was

compelled to go to work, the size of
the pay envelope, the conditions un-
der which it worked. These and
a great mass of othe: questions will
be sought to be answered.
‘When all this data is complete it
will be tabulated. The tabulations, it
is hoped, will show how those who
were compelled to work and live un-
der detrimental conditions compared
with those who were born of healthy
parents, and had every advantage,
both in school and otherwise, for the
start in life.
One of the reasons, it is declared,
for not taking the investigation to
the larger cities was the lack of ap-
propriations. In view of this fact it
was pointed out that the large cities
have efficient means of keeping very
complete mortality records, and for
that reason the children’s bureau
probe should be confined to the small-
er localities.
The results of this investigation,
it is believed, will furnish a basis for
decided improvement jn the infant
mortalty of the country and will even
result in bringing about better condi-
tions under which children work.
Confined to the smaller localities, it
probably will be the first information
of this kind which has ever been
compiled in such a manner as to
show how the many children pull
through the trials and tribulations
through which some of them in their
young lives are compelled to pass.
Of course, the children’s bureau in
the advisory capacity in which it acts
cannot compel any change in cond!-
tions which’ it may be shown are
needed. But it can make the invest!-
gations and {t can publish its find-
ings. Then either congress, the state
segislatures or what 1s perhaps strong-
er, it may move public sentiment,
which in turn will start other machin-
ery going and that will undoubtedly
result in working the reforms which
are needed.
But when the tell-tale figures are
laid down in black and white showing
whether the child who has been born
and lived under model conditions has
a great and material advantage over
him who 4s born and is reared under
adversity, {t 1s undoubted by those
who have the welfare of the little
ones at hand that any reforms which
may be shown to be needed will be
brought about.

BRYAN NOT AFRAID TO WALK.
Elevator operators in the state de
partment no longer will be compelled
to remain on duty while the secretary
of state remains in the building. Sec-
retary Bryan believes that when an
elevator conductor has worked eight
hours it’s time for him to quit.
Recently Mr. Bryan was detained
in his office until 6:30 in the evening.
The elevator man who runs the lift
nearest Mr. Bryan's office still was on
the job.
“What hours do you work?” asked
the secretary.
“From 8:45 a. m. until 4:45 p. m..”
sald the man.
“Well, {t's now after 6:30. You
ought to have been home long ago.”
“But it’s against the rule when the
secretary Is in the building,” ex-
plained the operator.
“Well, it’s not necessary for you to
remain while this secretary “is de-
tained after hours,” sald Mr. Bryan
with emphasis. “Besides, it won't
hurt any government official to walk
down two flights of stairs.”
WERE THEY BOTH JOKING?
‘This is one of the best stories at
the copitol: Before taking his seat
in the new congress, Representative
Fred A. Britten of Chicago paid a
visit to Panama, accompanied by Mrs.
Britten, a strikingly handsome young
woman and several other congress:
men and their wives, President Por-
ras of Panama tendered an elaborate
farewell reception to the party, he
took Mrs. Britten's hand in both his,
and bowed very low.
“Ol you beautiful lady, you beau-
tiful lady, good-by,” the president
said.
“Cut it out, Mr. President, or T'll
kick you on the shin,” said Represent-
ative Britten.
President Porras stepped back
aghast.
“Oh, no, no, no; I was only joking.”
he said earnestly, and Britten made
the same excuse.
“It's hard to say who was the most
embarrassed, President, Porras, his
wife, Mrs. Britten or myself,” says
the former Chicago alderman.
BE CHARITABLE, DEAR READER.
One of the boys in a family on the
East side came home from school
the other day with the following al-
literative ‘squib: i
“Woodrow Wilson's wife washes
Whitehouse windows which Washing:
ton's wife washed.”
“I can beat that,” sald his big
brother.
“Woodrow Wilson's wife washes
with warm water Washington's
Whitehouse windows which Washing-
ton’s wife washed while Washington
was within.”
The head of the family then took
a turn:
“Wise, witty, Woodrow Wilson's
winsome wife washes with warm wa:
ter Washington’s Whitehouse win-
dows which Washington's wife wash-
ed while Washington was waiting
within.”
TUMULTY GETS GLORY.
Masculine America should look with
awe and admiration today upon Jo-
seph Tumulty, secretary to. the prest-
dent, who, rising to the occasion,
fired his cook and lives to tell about
ft.
It {s an easy matter to bluff office-
seekers, to be an assistant president
and to know more than an encyclope-
dia, but to tell the queen of the
kitchen that her reign. is over is a
different matter.
There were no scars noted on Sec-
retary Tumulty, though it must be
confessed he had a rather relieved,
well satisfied air as he went about
his White House duties.
SENSE OF HUMOR.
“It is a sure sign that as a nation
we are endowed with a sense of
humor," remarked a congressman on
the Capitol plaza a few days ago.
“when any one of us will give up five
minutes of a busy day to stand right
here on this tornado-swept stretch
and laugh heartily at some poor tour.
{st who has to run half a mile after
his hat which invariably blows off
as he goes around the Capitol cor
ner.”
