Colorado Statesman

PATRONIZE MERCHANTS WHO ADV. IN THE PEOPLE'S PAPER THE COLORADO STATESMAN THE JOURNAL OF THE WEST. LABOR SHALL BE FREE RACE COUNTRY PARTY DECORATIONS FOR KNIGHTS TEMPLAR CONCLAVE VOL. XIX. DECORA FOR KN TEN CON Some of our readers have asked why we have devoted time and given space in our columns to the forthcoming event of the Knights, and we take very great pleasure in giving them the reply herein: Because, first, as citizens of Denver, a city which is engaging public attention in a particular form from the wonderful and rapid strides it is making, we should acquiesce to the requests made by this great and noble body of men who are putting forth every effort to place our city on a higher plane, thereby attaining better commercial and social interests, within not only our circumscribed sphere of the state of Colorado, but the whole country and the world at large; and secondly, that we are an integral part of the order in general, as in our very midst we have the Hiram Commandery, consisting of nearly fifty of our well-respected citizens under the jurisdiction of the Grand Commandery of Illinois, who remind us once a year of the historic Knights in their annual service. Why should we not therefore, keep before us the requests for decorating our homes and ensharing in the hospitality to be meted out to these visitors when the local committee out of its generosity is offering prizes for the best decorated homes, etc. Let us, therefore, rise to the occasion and do all that lies in our power to add to this grand spectacle which will be unprecedented in the Western states, and setting a pace for our larger cities to follow at the next triennial meeting. Added attractions are in evidence on all sides, and it seems that with each succeeding day the eye comes in contact with some new feature, compelling one to think that the financial resources are unlimited and apparently there will be no end to decorations. In our last issue we gave some of the principal attractions and in this we cannot refrain from publishing a few more which will, we are sure, delight our readers, making them more interested in this event. On each side of the Daniels and Fisher's tower will be seen a huge cross in electrical display, which seems to indicate the hope of the Knights in the Cross as their watch towers are placed on the poles at each corner on Sixteenth street from Cleveland Place to Larimer street, at such distances, that the Knight is compelled to look upwards to the Cross of Light. Then comes the figure of a mounted knight, ornamenting the roof of the Denver Dry Goods store. This will be one of the largest electrical displays to be shown as it is about fifty-five feet high and fifty-four feet wide. There are 1,300 lamps used in this figure, which will afford exceptional brilliancy. Two of the largest searchlights in the world will be placed on the Foster building. It is estimated that their rays can be thrown a distance of nearly fifty-five miles. See the great amphitheater with its seating capacity of 30,000, with its powerful tungsten lights over the grounds proper and its variety of colored incandescent lights over the stand, strikingly reminding us of the Colisaeum at Rome, one of the largest amphitheaters of the world, accommodating 87,000 spectators. Then mingled with such good feastings for the eye will be poured forth the sweet peals of music from fifty-six bands at different times. Sometimes delicate strains wafting on the atmosphere, another time martial music from the combined bands coming with a crash as if a number of meteors were fallen from their ethereal position, and coming in contact with other objects would seem to demolish them. O, gentle readers, don't miss this event of the conclave. Enter into it with the true spirit of a Denver citizen and let us demonstrate that we are in the march of progress and our slogan is "Onward." In our next issue we will give a full account of the proceedings, day by day, so that our subscribers will be thoroughly acquainted with them. State Hist & Nat Hist Sectors State House HANTS WHO ADO THE JOURNAL DENVER COLORADO NAPIER RESIGNS AS UNITED STATES REGISTER Washington, D. C., July 23. Because the Treasury Department instructed him to issue an order calling for the use of separate toilets by his white and colored clerks, James C. Napier has tendered his recognition as Register of the Treasury. Mr. Napier resigned as register last week, immediate after the Treasury Department ordered him to introduce "Jim Crow" methods in his office, Mr. Napier is receiving the congratulations of scores of admirers. There is no one in public life who is any more of a gentlemen than Register Napier. He does not talk and write so much about "manhood rights," believing that actions speak louder than words." When Mr. Napier attempted to show the assistant secretary why there should be no "Jim Crowing" in his office, but as Williams comes from Virginia he refused to rescind the order. Upon finding that he would have to be at the head of a department where Negroes were "Jim Crowed" Mr. Napier tendered his resignation. If a Negro is appointed to succeed Mr. Napier which is not likely, he will get the position with the understanding that he "Jim Crow" the members of his race. The Vaidaman Tillman element is in complete control at Washington, the capital city of the United States, and there is no telling what these sensationalists will try to do—if not stopped soon. CHARLEY HART GOES BIG WHERE McINTYRE & HEATH ARE CANCELLED Haven't you heard of it? All the New York theatrical papers are telling it from cables they have received, that "McIntyre and Heath, the famous and popular American blackface comedians, are now out of the program at the Hippodrome at London, England. Engaged for four weeks, the team played but one, when the management settled their contract by paying them for three weeks. The English people did not take to the acts offered, "The Georgia Minstrels" and "Waiting at the Church." McIntyre and Heath received a bad start at the Hippodrome at the opening matinee, June 30, with the first named piece. Changing later to the other almost as well-known skit in their repertoire, they could not do much better. On the other hand, mind you, Charley Hart, late of Avery and Eart, is giving a bit of Bert Williams and much of himself with Rosamond Johnson, formerly of Cole and Johnson; and they are the hit of the revue, "Come Over Here." The fact is, they are the talk of London, and hundreds of managers are offering them large sums for future engagements. They are all the rage among the English people, while the American performers are broken hearted over the McIntyre and Heath affair. Conroy and Lemaire, another blackface team, who preceded McIntyre and Heath by several weeks on the other side, failed, pointblank, in London. It is said that McIntyre and Heath were to receive $1,000 weekly for the month's engagement at the Hippodrome—and for what? The above will give you a faint idea of what has always been the case whenever a colored act appears on a bill similar white acts, especially where prejudice does not exist. We are always far better and deserve all praise and mention of it. Many of these headliners are mere nothing and should be cancelled where the colored act should head the bill. Look at New York today, in vaudeville. Our colored acts are so far ahead of the white ones and they stand out so big on a program there that the best way to stop the colored team from over shading the whites is to keep them out of the big houses. And they did successfully.—Freeman. FIVE SENATORS KICK ON NEGRO APPOINTER Washington, July 27. President Wilson may find it necessary to withdraw the nomination of Adam E. Patterson, the Oklahoma Negro lawyer nominated for register of the treasury. Five senators, it is said tonight, will oppose Patterson's confirmation, and others are mentioned as likely to join in the protest against him. The five are Senators Vardaman and Williams of Mississippi, Smith of Georgia and Shield and Lea of Tennessee, from whose state the present incumbent, J. C. Napier, hails. Napier was appointed as a Republican, so the Tennessee senators cannot be opposing Patterson in behalf of Napier. It is merely a question of color with these Southern gentlemen, who are opposed to placing a Negro in a high place which can be filled by a good white Democrat. Senator Tillman and Smith of South Carolina are two more senators who are expected to join the opposition, which is, of course, led by Vardaman, Senator Owen did not indorse Patterson, but his colleague, Senator Gore, was the original Wilson man in Oklahoma and seems to be pulling down the patronage plums with remarkable regularity while Senator Owen is working day and night for the president's currency programme. The Patterson nomination was referred to the Committee on Finance, of which Senator Stone of Missouri is a member. RACE NEWS GATHERED FROM VARIOUS SOURCES John Wanamaker, the greatest merchant prince in America, has arranged to entertain delegates in attendance to the coming meeting of the National Negro Business League in the Egyptian Hall of his Philadelphia store, at 5 o'clock Thursday, August 21, 1913. This is an honor never before extended any body of colored people. The famous Pekin Theatre, the first legitimate colored playhouse in America, was sold this week to George Holt, proprietor of the Brunswick Hotel. The purchase price was in the neighborhood of $30,000. The present occupants have a ten-year lease at a high rental, so Mr. Holt should worry. The public is deeply indebted to the late Bobert T. Motts, who erected this playhouse that his people have a chance to display their talent along dramatic lines. The original stock company are scattered throughout the world, and each and every one has become headliners- Other cities have patterned after the Pekin and have creditable houses of amusement where members of the race can go without being discriminated against.—Defender. Atlantic City, N. J., July 25. Robbed of jewels valued at $3,000 on the Boardwalk, Harry Schaefer, known as the "walking jewelry shop," appeared crazed for hours, and is verging on collapse. The robbery was reported to the police and detectives were assigned to the case, but no trace of missing jewels has been found. Schaefer told the police in his coherent moments that he left his home with the jewels in a packet in his pocket, and after calling on a patron, visited the Boardwalk. He participated in a bowling game, laying the coat containing the jewelry aside, and did not discover his loss until he had returned to his apartments. Baltimore, Md., July 23.—It is most likely that influential Negro voters of the city and State will demand fairer treatment for the race at the hands of leading Republicans and Progressives. A movement is on foot to bring out an amalgamation of Republicans and Progressives, and committees looking toward that end have been appointed. A subcommittee has been appointed to draft a platform, and a general get-to-gether meeting has been planned August 14. Two members of the race -Dr. NO 48 Ernest Lyon and Joseph P. Evans are the platform committee. A meeting of leading colored men may be held here shortly in order to determine exactly what the race should demand from the leaders in the coalition movement. KEPT NEGRO BLOOD SECRET UNTIL END KEPT NEGRO BLOOD SECRET UNTIL END Chicago, July 26.—Masked behind the good old Southern name of Lee, the son of a Negro woman slave fought his way upward to success as head of a big publishing concern and kept concealed the story of his birth until death sealed his lips, while he pored over the proofs of what was to be "the finest dictionary in the world." This was the explanation given tonight by Frederick C. Laird of Spokane, Wash., of the mystery in the life of William Henry Lee, former head of the Laird & Lee Publishing house. Laird came to Chicago to help the public administrator settle Lee's $200,000 estate. Lee lived in Chicago as solitary a life as a hermit in a desert, according to the story told by his former partner. He was on speaking terms with perhaps a hundred men, but he sought close friendship with none. His story of his birth and his struggle upward was put together only by chance remarks he dropped about his place of business. His father was a white man, it is believed; his mother a Negro slave in ante-bellum days. During the war he served as Valet for a Confederate general; he was a waiter in a St. Louis restaurant; a book agent and finally head of a great publishing house. "Lee lived at the Aqua, hotel for eleven years. His landlady always knew him as a strange quiet man who rexchanged no confidences. Two women knew him better than his business associates, according to a public administratro bishop. One was Mrs. Barbara Clough of Sherburne, Minn., who is heir to help settle the estate. The other lives in New York and is on her way to Chicago. Lee left no will and under the Illinois statutes his $200,000 estate will revert to the state.

News came to the State Department from the American minister at Lima, Peru, that a mob had surrounded the home of the president of the Peruvian Senate and taken possession of the Senate chamber. Vigorous criticism and determined defense of the attitude of Attorney General McReynolds and the administration in the Diggs-Caminetti white slave cases marked hours of political debate in the House. Administration officials are disposed to take an optimistic view of the negotiations with Japan arising from her protest against the California anti-alien land law, and believe a complete understanding almost is in sight. Reports to the State Department indicate that the Chinese Republic is making steady advances toward suppressing the revolution there, and that the revolt is expected to collapse because it is not supported by the commercial classes in the South. The Senate confirmed the appointments of Frederick C. Penfield as ambassador to Austro-Hungary; James W. Gerard, ambassador to Germany; Joseph E. Willard, minister to Spain; Charles S. Hartman, minister to Ecuador; John W. DaVis, solicitor-general and Charles S. Hamlin, assistant secretary of the treasury, together with a number of treasury and judicial appointments in California.

With assurances that as long as he is president the Mexican government never will sanction outrages against American citizens, President Huerta replied to representations made to him on behalf of the United States by Nelson O'Shaughnessy, the charge d'affaires of the American embassy at Mexico City.

Polite service LAWRENCE JONES, Licenced Embalmer LOUIS HUBBARD, Funeral Director WORK CALLED FOR AND DELIVERED REPAIRING DONE WHILE YOU WAIT AFRO-AMERICAN CULLINGS The real black belt of the United States is not in Mississippi nor South Carolina, but in the great farming districts of Delaware and the eastern shore of Maryland, a writer in the New York Sun asserts. There are not so many colored people in this region, but they are a good deal nearer pure black. Yellow folk never were numerous, but they are getting fewer, and there is a distinct reversion toward the pure African type. This is attributed to an enforcement of caste lines even more rigid than in slavery days. A single drop of African blood condemns its owner to classification with the colored people. Such persons of mixed blood as remain in the rural parts of the border states find that they are not socially advanced by their Caucasian inheritance, and they often marry with the blackest of their neighbors. Such marriages are hastening the reversion to type. A skilled enthologist could assign many of these people to their proper African tribes. Yet, with this reversion to African type is going on another thing that marks progress within type limits. Many of the very blackest men and women show a touch of refinement in features and expression, and the gentleness and intelligence evident in many men is far removed from the type of savage native African. The colored folk, whatever their degree of blackness, are isolated industrially and socially. On the farms, where they are almost the only hired laborers, they have their tiny cabins, usually set by the roadside, because they prefer the cheerfulness of the highway to the privacy of the fields. Each farm has its master's house set from one hundred to five hundred yards from the highway behind a dense screen of trees and shrubbery. In town, as in country, the colored people are segregated from the whites. Native whites incline to deny that the negro is advancing, but any one who revisits this black belt after an absence of 25 or 30 years can easily measure roughly for himself the advance. Comparatively few Negroes over ten and under sixty are unable to read and write, and the village homes, though poor and unsanitary, are better than they were some thirty years ago. Negro farm laborers hire for nine months for $20 to $25 a month with keep, which usually means lodging and plenty of coarse, but wholesome, food. In the best farming regions many of the Negroes, some estimate two or three out of five own a horse and carriage, and on Sundays the roads leading to picnic places or country churches show a procession of Negroes in their buggies. The farmer usually agrees to feed the horse and house the carriage, deducting, perhaps, $1 or $2 a month for this favor. One laborer, with no horse, brought along to one of the finest farms in Delaware two pigs, which the farmer fattened for him. The horse is often sold to the Negro by his employer on the installment plan and kept for him all winter if he is not able to pay for it in a single season. The winter season of enforced non-employment of most of the men tends to create irregular habits of industry. Wives and grown daughters are usually able to find work in white families for the winter, but many of them stubbornly decline to remain employed in the summer because their husband or brothers are then earning good wages. Unfortunately the ambition of the Negro is not greatly stirred by his environments; and valuable opportunities are permitted to slip because he apparently fails to see the benefits they produce. The white man, busy with his own concerns, has no time to watch over the fortunes of others, and good them onward in the handling of their individual affairs. The progressive element of the Caucasian family rejoices to behold the upward strides of his brother; and for the sake of enhancing the welfare of the community in which he lives will encourage and aid his endeavors. All the great enterprises that lift mankind in the scale of importance expand through united efforts; and the luxuries they embrace are the fruits of the wealth they produce.—Exchange. London disposes of an average of 260,000,000 gallons of sewage daily, the solid matter that is collected being taken to sea and deposited. Germany is experimenting with a projectile designed to pierce the gas envelope of a dirigible balloon and to set fire to it. According to a Finnish scientist the air around pine and fir trees is purer than around other trees because their needles act on the atmosphere as disseminators of electricity and ozonize it.

The French Association for the Advancement of Sciences meets in Havre on September 4 to 12. At Hampton institute, in Virginia, Negro boys and girls, young men and women, learn by doing. The institute, now 45 years old, has a record of which all who have aided in its upbuilding may well be proud. Discussing in the Survey some of the effects it has had upon Negro life of the south, Sydney Dodd Frissell writes: "The south is an open field for the tradesmen and farmers trained at Hampton. More than 80 per cent. of the tradesmen graduated from the school are engaged in trade work. The complete training as carpenters, bricklayers, blacksmiths or machinists assures Hampton men a place in southern communities and leadership among other people. Many Hampton tradesmen have taken places in the industrial training of their race by directing the trade training of other Negro schools. It is significant that more than a hundred tradesmen and teachers have gone from the parent school to help Booker Washington at Tuskegee alone. Fully 50 per cent. of the Negro boys from the Hampton shops go out to teach others trades. The success of Negro tradesmen in the competition of modern life in the south is no less striking and important than the teaching of trades to others. In Birmingham, Atlanta, Richmond, Norfolk and Danville Negro graduates of Hampton have become successful contractors. The worth of the training of a trade student is evidenced by the recognition his work receives after graduation. When in a position of trust and responsibility or as an employer of other workers he may give valuable aid to members of his race who lack his advantages but are striving for a chance. There is a graduate in Atlanta, Ga., who as a contractor has won the confidence of the people. He has the reputation of doing high-class work, equal to that of any contractor in the city. By employing a group of Negro mechanics, whom he holds to a high standard, he proves that the Negro can do other than the rougher and cheaper work. The value of such a man to his race cannot be estimated." Complaints are, sometimes, made relative to the conveniences of which we are often denied; and we deem our lot a hard one because we are withheld from the enjoyment of certain comforts which the white man creates for himself. Those amusements, the handiwork of his genius, are primarily instituted for his own uplift and that of his progeny; and he interposes no objections if the Negro seeks not to partake. Every avenue through which he travels to accomplish his great designs is open likewise to the Negro for operation along similar lines; and if his ambition does not bestr activity in his own behalf, there are no just grounds for disgruntlement when such favors are withheld. No race is so imbued with the spirit of brotherly love as to elevate another at the expense of his own, nor is it ever willing to recognize conditions detrimental to its personal weal. It is a grave error to surmise that mankind exerts his energy and utilizes his devices with no thought of selfish reward; and he who aspires to revel in his possessions must accept such allotments as his inclinations may choose to grant. An enlightened civilization develops, within any people, a desire for noble enterprises; and a love for the beauty in creation impels actions in its pursuit. The latest bulletin of the United States census shows that the white population was 81,731,957 in 1910, as compared with the Negro population of 9,827,763. The Negroes have increased by nearly 1,000,000 since 1900, when they numbered 8,833,894, and the percentage of Negro to white population has grown slightly, now being 10.7. Of the other colored races in 1910—Indian, Chinese, Japanese, and so on—there were 412,546, or fourteenths of 1 per cent of the whole population. The material progress of the white man in his every attempt should serve to the Negro as a worthy example for emulation and spur him onward to more daring achievements. Nothing of importance is ever attained save through persistence rightly directed; and zeal enforced by judgment and determination will erect for itself an imperishable monument. Earthenware pipes, built into a concrete wall, form a unique and safe storage plan adopted by a Belgian construction company for filing its original tracings and drawings. Drs. G. W. Lacey and G. W. Miller, colored, of Chicago cured Thomas Lewis of the lockjaw. This is the first cure of lockjaw in the history of medicine that has been effected. At the present rate of consumption and with modern methods of production the world's known iron ore deposits are estimated by experts to supply the demand for 360 years. Of the population of Hungary, more than 70 per cent. are engaged in agricultural pursuits.

IS IT WEAL, OR IS IT WOE? representatives of the People's Sunday Day, this city clearly stated that they could upon Negroes in their use of the public reply given a deputation from an organization in this community (which organizes citizens) when they laid their great legal discrimination against us in the way the "passive resistance" (as some may hold well for a people just emerging from the dawn of civilization, as rapidity in cell ruin, but a people who have been garb of civilization, dressed in the finest with the rays of education and will not and cannot be otherwise than actions of discriminations in this or any commissioners forget (possibly convenient, eighteenth century this country, desiring taskmasters, sent out the following: These three words, after the most care from the eyelids of the people; made them it is appreciated by all of us today. I think that the Negroes of Denver have been to the treasury of this city, both by fully realize that their action is an initially attached? Are they conscious of one of the most unmanly acts recorded, "breathe the fulfillment of their obligations to our tenable? Have they lost sight of to bring the ordinances of proscription been futile, after being carefully legislated of the West? Now, gentlemen, for special endowments, but we state plus as the people's representatives in the position in giving way to the whims and of a city, arraying the social and official and prescriptive rights of the other, slipped, as the intention of a people with you, will endeavor to prove the unrigid acts, if it necessitates the taking of your land. In a letter to representatives of the People's Sunday Alliance, the park commissioners of this city clearly stated that they could not remove the present ban placed on Negroes in their use of the public bathing places, etc. This was the reply given a deputation from an organization of nearly fifteen years' standing in this community (which organization consists of taxpayers—law-abiding citizens) when they laid their grievance of unjust, unwarranted and illegal discrimination against us in the enforcement of our civil rights. Now the "passive resistance" (as some Antediluvian weaklings advocate) may hold well for a people just emerging from barbarism, and awakening in the dawn of civilization, as rapidity in progress, in some instances may spell ruin, but a people who have been fortunate to be clothed with the garb of civilization, dressed in the fine raiment of progressiveness, illumined with the rays of education and its concomitant blessings, surely will not and cannot be otherwise than active in publicly denouncing any actions of discriminations in this or any other form. Our park commissioners forget (possibly conveniently) American history; how in the eighteenth century this country, desiring to be rid of the yoke of their hard taskmasters, sent out the following: "Taxation Without Representation." These three words, after the most careful consideration, lifted the scales from the eyelids of the people; made the intellectually blind see, and the result is appreciated by all of us today. Do the commissioners ever stop to think that the Negroes of Denver have been for a number of years contributing to the treasury of this city, both by direct and indirect taxation? Do they fully realize that their action is an infringement of the law to which a penalty is attached? Are they conscious of the fact that they are guilty of one of the most unmanly acts recorded, "breach of faith," with a people, who, by the fulfillment of their obligations to a city and country, make their positions tenable? Have they lost sight of the fact that the various attempts to bring the ordinances of proscription and segregation against us, have been futile, after being carefully legislated on by some of the best legal luminaries of the West? Now, gentlemen, we are not seeking your mercy, pity or special endowments, but we state plainly and emphatically, that if you, as the people's representatives in the position you are, feel that you are justified in giving way to the whims and caprices of some of the population of a city, arraying the social and official status of the one against the legal and prescriptive rights of the other, then marshall your forces and be equipped, as the intention of a people with no lesser courage nor backbone than you, will endeavor to prove the unrighteousness and unfairness of your acts, if it necessitates the taking of your action before the highest tribunal of the land. RELIGION IN THE UNITED STATES black man in America has adopted the way he other and is naturally religious, he is his man's application or misapplication of his sacred tenets of faith. The Negro knows the nine of fellowship when it brings him up on the prejudice of races, but, with a man and volume, the black man lets no oath of those religious fundamentals which implanted. But a Frenchman, in whose reless thinkers are here, has been stud Although the black man in America has adopted the white man's religion, because he has no other and is naturally religious, he is hopelessly mystified over the white man's application or misapplication of his own religious precepts and professed tenets of faith. The Negro knows that the white man balks at the doctrine of fellowship when it brings him up against the more material proposition of the prejudice of races, but, with a charity that is wonderful in its depth and volume, the black man lets no other surpass him in his faith in the truth of those religious fundamentals which his life with the white man has implanted. But a Frenchman, in whose country infidels are as numerous as careless thinkers are here, has been studying the religion of America, and has recently given out a scientific criticism of our religious practices, as a whole, which serves to show how the American, in many ways, moulds his religion to suit his other and apparently higher aims. In his race for the dollar, this writer says, the American's finer sensibilities dry up; the day's tasks take the mind away from thoughts of the morrow or of the future life. There is no unshakable devotion to a religious creed, and the members of the same family may belong to different sects without the least domestic friction. The devout are without fanaticism and the free-thinkers without hatred. No country has more charitable institutions than the United States, and in no country do people give more freely, but the individual, as a rule, makes no personal sacrifice; charity is carefully organized, not so much for the relief of the individual, but as a precaution against social disorder, and to keep down discontent and revolt. It is a matter of public prudence. Individual life is of little value, but public health is of vital importance. And thus this critic goes on to show that practical religion in this country is a business and not a principle of transcendant faith. There is small recognition of the true spirit of pity, of mercy, of universal love. There is everywhere the spirit of personal comfort and peace of conscience procured by being kept aloof from personal contact with the things that are distasteful and unpleasant, and for this the people pay, even in charity. If this measure of the white American's religion is correct, and it appears to be nearly so, it gives to the groping Negro a more practical and a more lofty conception of the true character of the lowly Jesus and that religion which his life exemplified and established. WHEN PREPARING FISH THREE GOOD RECIPES THAT MAY BE KEPT IN MIND. Trout, With Appropriate Garnishing Is One of the Best—Baked Cod a Universal Favorite—Proper Sauce to Serve. Trout, Friars.—Scale and clean a large trout, place in a saucepan and pour over it a cupful of boiling vinegar, which will have the effect of turning the trout blue, and an equal quantity of white wine. If necessary to cover the trout add sufficient water to do so. Add an onion stuck with cloves, a carrot, half a bunch of celery, a few bay leaves, a small bunch of parsley, half a teaspoonful of peppercorns and salt to suit the taste, and boll over the fire for about 15 minutes, having the cover on the saucepan. When done, remove and drain the fish, place on a folded napkin, spread on a dish, garnish with parsley, and serve with oil and vinegar or any favorite fish sauce in a sauceboat. Flounder, Brussels.—Clean and skin a flounder, sprinkle both sides with pepper and salt, and squeeze over a small quantity of lemon juice. Dip the fish in warmed butter, cover with finely grated breadcrumbs, place on a gridiron and broil over a clear fire, turning to brown both sides equally. Bone an anchovy, put the flesh into a mortar with a small lump of butter, and pound it, then place it in a small saucepan with a wineglassful of white wine and the strained juice of half a lemon, and stir over the fire for a few minutes. When cooked place the flounder on a hot dish, pour the anchovy sauce over it, and serve. Baked Cod, Savoy.—Prepare a fresh cod by tying up the head with a string and filling the inside with butter, in which have been mixed two tablespoonfuls of chopped parsley to the quarter of a pound, a little salt and pepper and the juice of two lemons. Put the fish, belly downward, on a buttered drainer in a fish kettle and pour over a mixture made as follows: Melt half a pound of butter in a saucepan, add a pint of chopped mushrooms, a blanched and chopped shallot, a tablespoonful of chopped parsley, the juice of a lemon and a crushed clove of garlic, all of these being partly cooked before being used. Season to taste. Now pour in a pint of white wine and bring the whole quickly to a boil, and allow to cook gently for an hour and a half, basting the fish every ten minutes with the liquor. When the flesh is firm put the fish on a dish, pour over half the sauce and put the rest in a sauceboat. This may be accompanied also by any other favorite fish sauce.—Washington Star. Cantaloupe Glace. Cantaloupe Glace. Cantaloupe glace is a delicacy that is truly delicious. Take melons that have been thoroughly chilled, cut in halves and lengthwise, and scrape out the seeds. Fill the hollow of each half with vanilla ice cream, packing it in as firm as possible, leaving a little mound in the center. Place the halves together tightly, thus forcing the cream up into the fruit, causing the melon juice to mingle with the cream. When ready to serve, a knife run between the halves separates the fruit and slices the cream. Ladies' Cabbage. Cook tender leaves of cabbage in plenty of boiling salted water, adding a pinch of soda. Separate the leaves of cabbage before dropping them in one at a time. Cook until tender, drain, and add one teaspoon flour blended with one cup rich milk. Then add salt and pepper and cook until sauce is thick. The mixture may be put in a baking dish with breadcrumbs on top. Dot with butter and brown in oven, serving hot. Folding Furniture And it folds up entirely. One may ship it conveniently. Upon arrival there's simply to unfold it. Folding tables are useful at home or plenclicking. Folding cots and swings are especially designed for carrying off into the wilderness. Pig In Blankets. Choose good-sized, plump oysters. Wash, drain and wipe dry. Select some good bacon and cut very thin. Wrap a piece of this about an oyster and fasten each with a toothpick. Drop these into a hot frying pan, turning until crisp on all sides. Season with pepper and serve very hot. Pineapple Salad Place the shredded fruit into a deep glass dish and pour over it half a pint powdered sugar mixed with one table-spoonful each of orange and lemon juice. This should be done at least three hours before serving, so that the sugar will dissolve. About Hot-Water Bags When a hot-water bag starts to leak never throw it away. Heat clean white sand in the oven and pour it into the bag or bottle. The sand is better than the water, as it retains the heat longer. In Preserving Time When supply of good rubber rings gives out use two old rings on a jar. It is safer than if only one is used. It is better economy, however, to buy new rubber rings every year.

JACKSON ENTERTAINS Last Saturday night will be long remembered by those young men who were the guests of Mr. C. E. Jackson at a "stag," which was perfect in every detail. Among those present were many of Denver's leading men in the various walks of life. They were H. G. Johnson, Charles, Harry and Spencer Smithea, H. H. Hall, Wm. Sprague, David Douglas, B. C. Curtis, H. J. Foster, Dr. P. E. Spratlin, Wm. Parks, C. A. Franklin, R. K. De Priest, A. G. Fallings, Howard Jenkins, J. D. D. Rivers, Sidney De Priest and C. E. Jackson. A. most enjoyable evening was spent at games and story telling and last, but not least, a most sumptuous repast was served, the kind that can always be expected at the Jackson home. In the small hours of the morning the boys closed this notable event by listening to C. A. Franklin's farewell remarks in a few well chosen words. Mr. Sidney De Priest of Salina, Kan., shared the distinction of being honor guest. COLORADO COMMERCIAL ALLIANCE PAYS TRIBUTE TO MR. CHESTER A. FRANKLIN.

Here are two exquisite hats, made for midsummer, that look as if they might be interpretations by the artist-milliner of soft, drifted snow or gleaming ice, translater into fabrics and thence into headwear. A round, bonnet-like shape has the brim covered with a new material much like crepe de chine, but with less luster. It is called crepe Georgette. The small soft crown is a puff of moire satin as shimmering as ice. A moire ribbon encircles the crown and is tied in a bow on the under-brim. There is a large white marguerite daisy on the upper-brim at the back with a deep brown center. It is mounted in a few rose leaves from which trails also the palest of Marshall Neil roses extending two inches beyond the brim edge. Folds of snowy maline rest against the hair, supported by an under-brim which is really an extension of the crown. This beautiful conception belongs in that class of millinery to which the designer turns when possessed of the airiest of fancles. A white hemp shape trimmed with ribbon veiled with maline and finished with a pair of wings deserves a special interest. It is a peculiar shape with a poke-bonnet front and a brim that widens and rolls up at the back. Contrary to the popular mode of the season, which shows wings and quills mounted as in flight, these wings are poised as if at rest, which is exactly right for a hot-weather hat. The wonderful coat of Irish-crochet lace has a daring touch on the sleeves. They are short puffs, not reaching to the elbow, and are finished with bands of dark brown fur. The idea is eccentric but perhaps intended to remind us of winter and cold weather in the midst of middle-summer heat. FOR WEAR ON CAR OR BOAT Crepe de Chine Dressing Gown Is the Most Practical Garment for the Traveler. The most serviceable and durable dressing gown for the traveler is made of some dark, inconspicuous, untransparent material. Crepe de chine is ideal for summer wear. A dressing gown of this material in a dark color can be worn comfortably for months. It does not show oil easily, and when it is soiled it can be easily washed and will look as well after a trip to the laundry as before. A dark gown, besides the fact that it will not show soil so quickly as a light one, can be comfortably worn on the way to the bath on shipboard and in the corridors of hotel or pension. A gown of dark blue crepe de chine could be made with a little V-shaped vest of gathered cream or ecru net and with net undersleeves, or a ribbon sash in gay colors and futurist design could be used to give the somber gown a more interesting character. NEEDLE BOOK TO FIT PURSE With This Equipment Any Ordinary Mishap to Garment May Be Quickly Repaired. Almost any of the scraps of pretty silk ribbon that are in the family rag bag may be fashioned into a needle book small enough to go into the average sized purse without overcrowding the receptacle. At the inner side of one cover, which of course is mounted over thin cardboard, should be a tacked-down sheet of fine flannel in which may be stuck needles of several sizes, and at the inside of the opposite cover should be straps of the silk through which reels may be run. These reels, formed of silk-covered matches or toothpicks, should be wound with a few yards of black and white sewing silk, black and white linen thread, black and white or tan silk floss, and, thus equipped, the shopper is prepared to repair any ordinary mishap to her garb. Soft Bows or Lingerie. Fastidious women have long been tired of the lingerie garments that are slotted for baby ribbon in all possible places, but the touch of color which the ribbon gives is introduced by single soft bows. On the newest French nightgowns there are two large butonholes to be found at the front and through these is passed a soft wide ribbon which is tied in a bow. This is much less troublesome than threading ribbons through slots or stitching on a made bow. Fan Again in Fashion. The fetching neck ruff remains a great favorite with the girl of the season. A chic girl at a smart afternoon gathering the other day wore the latest and sheerest development of the ruff, which consists of but a single thickness of fine tulle, with nary a lait. Underwood & Underwood Tailor-made model of ecru tussel with collar of purple silk. Slimmer Than Ever. Smart women of this season look slimmer than they have done for a long time. To secure the effect desired undergarments that add to the size are being dispensed with. To take the place of the abandoned petticoats the new muslin, which is very thin, crepuns and other transparent materials, are being used, while some women who may be described as ultrafashionable have conceived a petticoat combination made out of woven silk which fits the hips closely. Lace Eichu Over Silk Gown. A charming fichu of maline lace is worn over a gown of soft silk or sheer material. The lace is draped in soft folds across the back and shoulders, gradually sloping toward the front where it ends in two sharp points. MUST GET AUTO TAGS SECRETARY OF STATE PEARCE WARNS AUTOISTS. Violators of State Vehicle Law Are Subject to Arrest and Fines of $25.00 to $250.00. Western Newspaper Union News Service. Denver.—The autoists of Denver are being warned by city patrolmen to secure tags under the new state motor vehicle law. Motorists who have not secured the licenses are subject to fines and will be prosecuted. About 3,000 autoists in the city have secured the new tags but there are about an equal number who have not. Those not obtaining the licenses if arrested will be subjected to fines of $25 for first offenses and $250 for second offenses. "The new motor vehicle law, under which the tags are issued, is a help to the motorists," said Secretary of State Pearce. "It gives the holders of state licenses the right to drive on all highways and in all cities of the state. Moreover the license is a comparatively low one. The state of Vermont charges a fee of $1 a horsepower. Colorado's fees are one-half those of New York. The fees, graduated according to horsepower, average $5 for a license. We expect to give a reasonable time to motors to secure the licenses, but after that the law will be rigidly enforced." Half the money obtained from auto fines goes to the state for use in building roads, and half to the county for a similar purpose. Secretary Pearce estimates that if the law had gone into effect four years ago a road building fund of $250,000 would have been secured by the present time. State Probing Railroad Wreck. Denver.—Investigation of the railroad wreck on the "Switzerland Trail" near Eldora in which twenty-seven persons were injured was made by the state railroad commission, Commissioners A. P. Anderson and S. S. Kendall went over the scene of the wreck. After a conference with the officers of the railroad and the train crew at Boulder the commissioners returned to Denver. They announced that they had not been able to reach any conclusion as to responsibility and would not reach a decision for a few days. They were accompanied by President Hayes of the railroad. The injured brought to Denver are rapidly improving. Believes New Vehicle Law Valid. Denver.—Secretary of State Pearce does not believe that Colorado Springs officials will be successful in an attempt to have the State Supreme Court rule that the new motor vehicle law does not apply to "home rule" cities. The Colorado Springs officials have threatened to start a suit to test the validity of the law. If the Supreme Court should exclude "home rule" cities from obeying the law, residents of those towns would be compelled to have a state license to travel in other sections of Colorado, according to the secretary of state. State to Support Normal Schools. Denver.—State Treasurer Leddy and State Auditor Kenehan have arranged to provide funds by which the Gunnison normal school and the Fort Lewis agricultural school near Durango may be kept in operation. Governor Ammons has approved this course. The business men of Gunnison will carry the present indebtedness of the school for a time while the state will furnish money for the school's operation. The Fort Lewis school has no indebtedness. Auditors for Clayton Estate Named. Denver.—County Judge Ira C. Rothgerber appointed a committee of three to audit the accounts of the George W. Clayton estate, $2,000,000 of which was bequeathed to the city as a trust fund for the establishment and maintenance of the George W. Clayton Home for Boys, Gustave C. Bartels, George Tritch and Henry J. Falk were chosen. They will begin work at once. Examinations for State Plum. Denver.—Examinations of candidates for state game and fish commissioner are soon to be held by the State Civil Service Commission. James A. Shinn, the present commissioner, was appointed by former Governor Shafroth. The salary is $2,000 a year and the position is considered one of the best listed under civil service by the new extension law. Buffalo Bill's Case in Court. Denver.—Employment is being found for the 500 tentmen and other employés of the Buffalo Bill Wild West and Pawnee Bill Far East show who were left penniless and stranded when the show was closed under attachment suits filed against it. STATE CAPITAL NOTES. Alexander Nusbet, commissioner of safety, is named as defendant in a suit for $50,000 damages as a result of his action in attaching the Buffalo Bill Wild West and the Pawnee Bill Far East circus. The session laws of the Nineteenth General Assembly will be off the press in about two weeks, according to the secretary of state. All of the initiated and referred bills of the last general election are printed as an appendix. The book contains more than 1,000 pages. HER FAITHFUL LOVER By J. A. TIFFANY. The only fault that Hiram Lamson had to find with Mira in all the thirty years of their happy wedded life was her unreasonable and utterly groundless jealousy. At supper Mira had announced her intention of taking the old democrat wagon and driving Dobbin to the city to attend a revival meeting. Much to Hiram's surprise and chagrin Mira had declined his proffered escort. After she had gone Hiram noticed a piece of paper lying on the hall floor. He went forward and picked it up. "What's this?" Hiram asked. "A letter, eh?—and torn in two. Why, now, who can be a-writin' to Mira like that—'My darling Mira.'" "My darling Mira—Meet me at half-past eight o'clock tonight under the blasted elm in Lovers' walk. Grant me this last prayer, my loved one, and I will never trouble you again. Your faithful lover, CLAUDE." "So this is the revival meetin' as Mira's gone to? Oh, Mira, Mira! This is why you've always pertended to be so jealous of me—you did it to cover up your own wrongdoing. "Half-past eight o'clock, under the blasted oak. I must get on my bike and spin over there." Lovers' lane was the name given to a well-worn path that ran through a piece of woods about five miles from the Lamson farm. Hiram made a long detour so as to approach the trysting place from the back of the woods, instead of from the turnpike. It still lacked fifteen minutes of the appointed time when he came within sight of the blasted elm. In the gathering dusk Hiram esplied Mira, seated behind a tree some twenty paces from the blasted elm, and he heard the whinney of the faithful Dobbin, tethered somewhere near at hand. "Seems as if Claude wasn't in such a hurry to keep his appointment as Miranda was. Aye, lass, I could almost find it in my heart to take and lift ye into the wagon and drive ye straight home before yet get a chance of making a fool of yourself before my eyes. I'd do it—and forget the whole night's business—if it wasn't that I'm bound to everlastingly knock the nourishment out of this fine gentleman Claude. At last it seemed that Mira's patience had given out. Hiram looked at his watch as she got up and started for the by-road. Just as Mira was about to step into the wagon, Hiram, who had reached her side unobserved, said: "Let me help you, wife. I guess I'll load my wheel into the wagon and we'll drive home together." "Where have you been skulking, Hiram Lamson?" Mira demanded, wrathfully, "and where that Jezebel as you come out here to meet?" "Now, Mira," said Hiram, quietly but firmly, "the jealousy racket doesn't go in this family any longer. It's played out. You're the only woman I came here to see. But I was expecting a man. Where's Claude, Mira?" "Claude!" Miranda echoed in a disgusted tone. "I don't know nothing about no Clauces. What I want to know is—Where's Clementina, and who is she?" "I don't know what you're talking about, Mira—I've no more idea than a next year's pumpkin. But I'd like to know if this is what you call attending a revival meeting. I'd also like to know who Claude is?" "To the tater bugs wi' Claude!" was Mira's impatient exclamation. "But when you get love letters from your Clementinas, Hiram Lamson, you should be more careful than to drop 'em around in the dairy. Now, read that letter, and then tell me you never heard of Clementina!" Mira took a piece of paper from her bosom and handed it to Hiram, who managed to read by the light of the moon: "Dear Hi—You have broken my heart, but I will go away and bear my sorrow in silence. You will never see me again on earth, unless you come to the blasted oak in Lovers' lane at half past eight to-night. Yours, though I may not call you mine. "CLEMENTINA." Hiram scratched his head for a moment. "Why, old girl!" he said, "somebody's been fooling us both. I got a letter pretty much like that—signed with the name 'Claude,' as if it was intended for you. Well, whoever it was, we'll just fool them. We'll get into the wagon and drive home and never a word to anybody to let folks know what two old fools we've been tonight." Half an hour later, as they entered the house and Hiram made a light, Mira exclaimed: "Hiram Lamson, there's been thieves here! Everything's turned upside down." Investigation revealed losses in money, plate and jewelry to the amount of $1,200. "Bless me, if those robbers haven't actually had the impudence to leave their cards!" exclaimed Hiram. Lying face downward on the dining room table were two calendars which had been torn down from the wall. On the back of each a name was printed in pencil, in large, ill-formed characters: "CLAUDE." "CLEMENTINA." (Copyright, by Dally Story Pub. Co.) She—"Woman, you know, is the weaker vessel." He—"I don't know about that. She can generally break a man."

This can be purchased at most of] and varnish shops, and should either be mixed with a little color or @ sufficient quantity of floor «stain should be added. ‘The filler should be put on with a flat brush or piece of cloth and worked in one direction with the grain of the wood, while on completion of the process the room should be closed for 24 hours. At the end of that time the boards should be rubbed until they shine, with a long- handled, heavy weighted broom, over which a piece of carpet has been tacked, and this process may be re- peated ad libitum. Finally the floor may be polished with boiled linseed oil and turpentine, this mixture being rubbed well in with a cloth and then left for an hour or two to dry, after which it must.be again polished with the weighted brush. Instead of a final touch of this de- scription, the floor may be finished with a coat of varnish or shellac or with some prepared hardwood treat: ment, both of which should be put on evenly and thinly with a weighted brush or with an old piece of carpet. In order to keep the floor at its best after the polishing process has been completed, it should never be washed with water, but after all the dust has been removed crude petro- leum should be rubbed in and left to dry. r 7 4 a “fl vy — rier 4 canes ae) HOUSE Endives, stewed, make a pleasant change as a vegetable.
