IN HOC SIGNO VINCES
(In This Sign Thou Shall Conquer)
Denver, the city of lights, will afford a magnificent reception to the Knights, and with its costly illumination and decoration mingled with its music, sounding and sounding from hundreds of instruments she will be woven into a mythical Templar paradise from Fourteenth to Eighteenth streets and from the Union depot to Colfax avenue. In enumerating the various decorations information is herein given to the significance of the various signs and mottoes. First the Maltese cross, to be seen on several decorations, but principally at the Union depot, with the Malta motto: "Non nobis, Domine, non nobis, sed nomine tuo da gloriam," meaning: "Not unto us, Lord, not unto us, but unto Thy name be the glory," signifying the self-denial of the Malta Knights during the crusades of the sixteenth century, when they repelled their Mohammedan enemies successfully and adopted the above motto, lest they would become conceited with their victory and neglect to give God the glory. Then the Passion cross, to be seen on all the decorated poles on Fifteenth, Sixteenth and Seventeenth streets, signifying Calvary with the Crown of Thorns. Next comes the Knights' faith in the stars looped across the streets the same signifying the Divine guidance of the lives of those who put their trust in the Almighty and to the Templar chiefly, "Hope."
The special attractions in illumination, viz.: The Colorado Commandery gigantic sign, at West Colfax and Broadway, Welcome Arch at Fourteenth and Champa streets, the Passion Cross with the swords crossed at Eighteenth and California, the Mounted Knights at Eighteenth and Champa and on the roof of the Denver Dry Goods store, the Knights on the May Company store, Sixteenth and Champa streets, the cross on the four sides of the Daniels and Fisher tower, the Passion cross and Crown (three in number) on the Joslin's store, also the Knights' tower, the Maltese cross in red hanging from the stringed lights on Sixteenth street, the looped stars on Fifteenth street, hanging between poles decorated with American flags and surmounted by the white and black flags of the order, the vari-colored lights along the different streets, also at the Broadway theater and El Jebel Temple in conjunction with the wonderful and brilliant display of the Court of Honor will usher Denver into a blaze that will leave an ever-memorable impression on visitors and citizens alike of the great efforts put forth by the committee to make this event a great success.
The various buildings, stores and residences seem to be in keen but friendly competition over their decorations, and the judges will find it no easy task to name the winners. The grandstand, with its special feature, the drill exhibitions and competitions by some of the famous teams of the

order will add to the pleasure of the spectators, and the Church of the Holy Sepulchre and the archway at Seventeenth and Tremont streets will offer quite a striking and imposing spectacle.
The Triennial committee declared recently, "that every possible courtesy that could be extended to the visitors has been arranged, and from the time of their arrival at the Union station, guests will be constantly in possession of guides and escorts catering to their comfort. Receptions, dinners, auto rides and various other enjoyments will keep them busily engaged in the sharing of Denver's hospitality, and there being nothing lacking in the execution of plans, for the conclave every phase of the big convention points to a realization of Denver's hopes, and a thorough success of the thirty-second annual conclave of the Knights Templar."
Route of Parade of Knights Templar.
The escort and parade in fifteen divisions will start from the intersection of Broadway and Eighteenth avenue at 10:30 o'clock a. m., Aug. 12, and move on Eighteenth street to Curtis street, on Curtis street to Seventeenth street, Seventeenth street to Court Place, on Court Place to Sixteenth street, on Sixteenth Street to Larimer street, on Larimer to Fourteenth street to Colfax avenue. At this point the column will be halted until the Most Eminent Grand Master and members of the Grand Encampment and guests have taken their seats in the reviewing stand.
When the Most Eminent Grand Master enters the grandstand the band of the first division will play "Hail to the Chief." The Templar column will then be reviewed by Most Eminent Sir William Bromwell Melish, Grand Master Knights Templar of the United States of America, and after passing through the grandstand, will be conducted south on Broadway to Thirteenth avenue where the parade will be dismissed.

RAID ON COL.
Winchester, Va. July 25. An unexpected raid on a tent at the edge of the United States camp of cavalry instruction near here, in which were found two French-Canadian women, with a dozen members of the Tenth Cavalry (colored), was made early this morning by Sheriff Paunett, of Frederick county, assisted by Seconed-Lieutenant Arthur B. Conrad of that regiment.
All the Negroes escaped except a corporal, who ran into a barbed-wire fence, injuring himself so badly that he is in the field hospital. A mulatto, who had a moving picture machine at the camp and among whose effects was found evidence of his being a white slaver, escaped in a night shirt.
One woman was caught by the Sheriff after a chase through a cornfield, while the other was held
---
by a deputy. Letters addressed to women in Burlington, Vt., urging them to come here, were found, as were photographs of women and 10 gallons of whisky.
WHY COLORED PEOPLE SHOULD
TAKE THE OWN PAPERS
An exchange gives five reasons why the Afro-American should subscribe for Afro-American newspapers. First, because it is our duty to support enterprises of the race; second, Afro American enterprises have no other means of support save their own; third, Afro-American newspapers tell of the good things of the race. Turn the bright side of the picture and don't wait until you get in jail to speak of you; fourth, Afro-American newspapers encourage and inspire the younger members to do more, get more and have more; fifth, Afro-American newspapers tell what the race has accomplished and its possibilities.
RACE NEWS GATHERED FROM VARIOUS SOURCES
Oklahoma City, Okla., July 29. The Supreme Court Tuesday affirmed the "Grandfather Clause" amendment of the State Constitution which disfranchises the Negro under certain conditions. Notice of an appeal to the United States Court has been given.
Mr. J. Finley Wilson, national organizer of the Elks, and associate editor of the Baltimore Times, was in Washington, last week. Mr. Wilson's friends are pushing him for grand exalted ruler subject to the national convention at Atlantic City August 26, and his stock is said to be rapidly going up. Mr. Wilson is a hustler, and the fellow who beats him out will know he has been in a race.
Paris, July 27.—Black regiments of the French colonies will henceforth be quartered in Paris during their enlistment. M. Etienne, the minister of war, has announced the change of plan in putting into operation the government's three year military service bill. The innovation promises to be popular as Negroes especially black troops, are well liked in France. Regiments of Negro soldiers will be brought in for service in the mother country from the colonies of Martinique, Guadaloupe, Reunion Island and Guiana.
The Hawaiian Chinese College baseball teams this season are making a fine showing, and the Japanese have sent here an expert to study American baseball ways. The Carlisle school Indians have made a fine reputation as all round athletes, and have no trouble in making matches with the best white college teams. Negro schools are also developing splendid athletic teams of one sort and another, and in the years to come the white colleges will include them in the athletic schedules. All things come to those who wait, if they have the staying ability to wait long enough.
The Pennsylvania Railroad has issued an order that all of its employees in the dining room service shall stand a physical examination once every three months, and that only those who stand 100 per cent, in the tests will be retained. The Pullman Car employees are having troubles of all sorts, of which small pay and fines and long hours of service are the three greatest. The effort being made in certain
NO 49
Western States to have the crews of all trains of one color is one of the movements to drive the Negroes out of the sleeping and chair car service. A writer in the New York Times complains that Negro railroad men have no proper organization for their protection. Perhaps not, but it is their fault. As far back as 1890 we urged them to organize and have repeated the advice periodically ever since. Our men in most lines of work have effective social and fraternal organizations, but few to protect their bread and butter interests. It is their fault.

Trenton, N. J., July 30.—In April, 1912, Charles Quander and Robert Queen were competitors for the position of clerk typewriter at West Point Military Academy, and were the only colored applicants out of ten. They were the only successful candidates. As Queen had accepted the position of stenographer to the Emancipation Commission of New Jersey, Quander was the only person eligible to the position. Quander went to work in November last as the first colored man to hold a clerical position in that "sacret" academy, but a law was passed recently taking the position out of the civil service. On July 1 Mr. Quander was succeeded by one of the young white men who succeeded in failing in the test held the previous year.
Cambridge, Mass., July 29.—A full blooded African chieftan has just passed his entrance examinations at Harvard with flying colors and will enter the university next September as a member of the class of 1917. He is P. Gbe Wolo. His people, 300,000 strong, are the Krus of Liberia. They have no written language, so that the only way he can communicate with his family is through traders on the coast, who send the message by word of mouth along the trail. With the assistance of Mrs. Chas, E. Dickerson, wife of the principal of Northfield Seminary, and Prof. Frank L. Duley of the seminary he has begun the stupendous task of reducing his language to writing, making a grammar and translating the Bible. At Mount Hermon, his preparatory school, Wolo made an excellent record in his studies. He delivered the Latin oration at his commencement. He speaks French fluently and English without the trace of an accent.

WASHINGTON.
President Wilson nominated Henry Tennant secretary to the American legation at Venezuela. Every effort is being made to whip into shape the army aviation corps, in anticipation of active service. President Wilson has entered into the summer life of the national capital with the tolerant spirit of a veteran resident. After a conference with President Wilson, Secretary Bryan declared the United States was in no way being pressed for action in Mexico. Insanity among the American troops serving in the Philippines is not prevalent and a common belief to that effect is disproved by figures collected by the surgeon general of the army.
State Senator Austin Blakey filed a long affidavit charging Michael J. Brennan, nominated for Postmaster of Leadville, with selling out the Democratic party in 1906, by inducing candidates to run on the so-called Lindsey ticket. Brennan's confirmation has been held up.
President Wilson took under consideration an invitation to address the National Council of Women Voters, which is to meet in Washington for a three-day conference beginning August 13. Representatives Raker of California and Keating of Colorado extended the invitation on behalf of the suffragists.
Further to popularize the parcel post system with the public, Postmaster General Burleson announced that after Aug. 15 the weight limit on packages would be placed at twenty pounds (it now is eleven pounds), and that a sharp reduction in charges would be made. He announced also that on the same date "the banking by mail" feature would be introduced into the postal savings system. Secretary Bryan announced the acceptance of the resignation of Henry Lane Wilson as ambassador to Mexico.
FOREIGN.
The Movis Valley pit of the Oadder colliery, twelve miles from Glasgow, caught fire and twenty-three miners were hopelessly entombed. Cipriano Castro, former dictator of Venezuela, planned his present invasion of that country while he was staying in Dresden a few months ago. It is reported at Caracas that all the Venezuelan government officials at Coro, in the state of Falcon, were surprised by former President Castro and killed or taken prisoners. Canton's joy over smashing the rebellion was short lived. A rabble of mutinous troops control the city again. They have murdered their officers and are demanding that Chung Kun, commander of the Fifth infantry brigade, be made governor.
Twenty-two coal miners perished in a fire which broke out in the Mavis Valley pit of the Cadder colliery, near Glasgow, Scotland. Only one man of the shift of miners in the pit at the time of the fire escaped. A widow lost three of her sons.
That the Japanese government, through its new ambassador to Mexico, has offered the support of eighteen of its warships to Mexico in the event of war with a "common enemy," is the story brought to agents of the department of justice by a Chihuahua Mexican who is a spy of the constitutionalists in the federal ranks.
President Huerta reiterated his declaration of his policy of "hands off" in reply to a question as to what would be his attitude in case an offer of mediation should be made by the United States through John Lind, who went to Mexico City as the personal representative of President Wilson to act as adviser to the American embassy. "I have said publicly," President Huerta declared, "that I will not accept mediation nor intervention of any kind, because national dignity and honor do not exact it. I have declared also that I will not treat with the rebels, and much less will I do so if the insinuation that I do so involves a flagrant violation of our sovereignty."

Crops which will surpass anything
in the state's history are to be Colorado's portion for 1913.
Three thousand men will be employed at the union station to handle the crowds coming into Denver for the Templar conclave. Physicians are not able to explain the early spread of typhoid fever which has broken out in Denver a month ahead of its usual time this year. Tourist travel into Colorado from Texas this season is thrice that of any preceding season, and the increase is largely due to the activity of the Trinidad Chamber of Commerce. The International Phypogeographic excursion, consisting of seventy-five of the most noted plant specialists in Europe and America, will spend ten days investigating the natural vegetation on Pike's Peak.
The annual Arkansas valley fair to be held in Rocky Ford September 2, 3, 4 and 5, will be the biggest and best since the movement was inaugurated, according to Lewis Swink, president, and George M. Hall, secretary.
Four million fry of rainbow trout and 3,500,000 of the native variety will be placed in the streams of the state by State Game and Fish Commissioner Shinn. The distribution will be made from seven hatcheries.
William J. Biercamp, former president of the Germania State bank of Denver, who disappeared more than a month ago, following a series of matrimonial difficulties, is in Chicago and asserts he will never return to Denver.
The oldest pioneer present at the Colorado Day celebration in Denver was Eugene K. La Valle, ninety-six years old his last birthday. His back is bent and his blue eyes dimmed but his mind is as clear as it was forty years ago.
Hurled from the back of a burro which she was riding down a mountain near the balanced rock, Miss Jane Going, a society girl of Birmingham, Ala., was seriously injured at Colorado Springs. The girl struck a sharp stone with her chin and cut a frightful gash in her throat, causing great loss of blood.
An accidental turning on of gas without suicidal intents will be the claim of attorneys for the late William L. Clayton, former insurance commissioner, who died July 23, in an effort to enforce the payment of more than $10,000 life insurance that he carried. It may be shown also that the gas burner in Clayton's room was defective.
The mystery surrounding the identity of the man found drowned in the Grand river near Glewood Springs several days ago, is believed to have been cleared by a statement made by Mrs. Bertha De Wolfe, the Denver man-curist, whose photograph was found on the dead man's body. He is believed to have been George LeRoy, solicitor for a Chicago picture enlarging house.
Universal peace and woman's suffrage within the present young man's lifetime are predictions which Josephus Daniels, secretary of the navy, coupled in his address at the dinner given in his honor at the Country club in Denver.
The president nominated Thomas Annear as superintendent of the Denver mint to succeed Frank M. Downer. Frank E. Wheeler was nominated as assayer to succeed Arthur R. Hodgson. Downer and Hodgson have held their positions since Sept. 30, 1904.

There is power in numbers unified
if directed to a purpose; and great
achievements may be wrought through
its agency, if confidence is secuced.
It is a mighty defense against at-
tack, and a protection to individuals
as well as support to bodies. It would
be better for the situation of every
man, in his material affairs, if he
should realize its importance, and
strive to improve his condition by
practice. It has ever been somewhat
strange, that the negro fails, as a
race, to note the strides of the oth-
ers of mankind in pushing forward the
movements of the world through the
force of combination. Fear, begotten
of suspicion has ever kept him in the
rear ground of civilization because his
aspirations are crippled, thereby.
Nothing is gained’ without venture;
and he who hesitates to take the first
stey. will never be able to walk. That
which hes been accomplished by one
may likewise reward the labors of the
other; but a lack of endeavor will al-
ways retard the completion of any de-
sign. Feeble efforts are the results
of half-hearted attachment, which, usu-
ally, swerves aside when actual serv-
ice is demanded. Ignorance mistrusts
intelligence, because it has so often
fallen a victim to its wiles; and the
former is divided through jealousy.
‘There are, therefore some reasonable
‘causes for the dissensions which tend
to weaken the ties of union; but, In
nature, there exists a remedy for each
ill, Human struggles cannot be borne
in severalties; and whenever it is
undertaken the end, thereof, is de-
structive. Of course, no man fore-
sees his destiny; nor can he deter-
mine what his end will be; yet, to alm
high to dare and do, will often bring
fruits to chivalry. That general who
fails to prepare because ignorant of
the outcome of the struggle, will ever
be the loser; nor will he be rewarded
for wisdom because he refuses to
make an attempt. Defeats are not al-
ways shameful; for out of them very
often great victories are born. The
stigma arises when once defeated he
fails to come again.
Capt. James W. English and Mr.
Samuel M. Inman have given gener
ous amounts toward the establishment
at Atlanta, Ga., of a school, the pur-
pose of which is to train the willing
Negroes of the city to meet the pres-
ent demand for competent labor along
the lines for which there is the most
demand.
The school, if developed on the
plans described, will mark the first
practical step to solve the so-called
servant problem in Atlanta and will
prove a factor of usefulness to both
races.

Chase of the Washington Bee found
the southern Negro industrious, pro-
gressive and happy. He says the
charge 1s untrue that the Negroes of
‘the south are shiftless and lazy. The
south now is like the other sections
of the country in most respects, With
us it is also a matter of “root hog

People who are afraid of themselves
and run away from themselves, and
who expect other people to respect
them when they are prosperous and to
assist them in their troubles, always
get left at the post of life, like a
balky horse in a race. They are in a
class with the little girl in rag time
who sings defiance to the little boy
in the following couplet:
“You can’t swing on my front gate!
You can't play in my back yard!
You can't kiss me on my cheek!
Because—I don't love you any more!”
Having no little boy to do it with
her she has to do it with herself, all
by her lonesome, and that is a mighty
unsatisfactory and unprofitable way
for little folks or big folks to do any-
thing, from “coming through the rye”
to building a tunnel under the North
and East rivers. People, great and
small, have got to work together in or-
der to accomplish anything. It they
can't get others to work with and for
them they have to work with and for
themselves. The readers of The Age
are under obligation to Prof. Kelly Mil-
ler for his splendid story. “A Compari-
son and a Contrast,” printed in The
Age, in which the high development of
Mound Bayou, Miss., under the wise di-
rection of Hon, Isaiah T. Montgomery
and Mr. Charles Banks, was never
more grapically and helpfully pictured
by words. What that negro commu-
nity has accomplished, with wise direc-
tion, and which many of them are ac-
complishing. As Thé Age has pointed
out, and will continue to point out, the
negroes of Mound Bayou are making
segregation pay them. They don't
care whether white folks swing on
their front gate or not; indeed, they
prefer to swing on their own front
gate, as it pays them better; that is
to say, It pays them better to attend
to their affairs than to have white
folks to do it, and to work for them-
selves than for white folks. The fool
notion so prevalent among negroes
that white folks only can do things
has Killed more negroes than have
fever and ague.—New York Age.

Dr. G. H. Glover says the artificial
conditions under which the horse is
placed and the unusual demand exact-
ed of him result-in 2!most every case
in diseased conditions which make
him incapable of doing the work he
would otherwise do. Shoeing, which
places him under artificial conditions,
combined with the hard roads, over-
work and improper feeding, soon pro-
duce inflammatory conditions which
may result in side bones, ring bones,
coffin joint, lameness, cracks in the
hoof wall, contracted heels and a
great many more diseases, too numer-
ous to mention, In many cases the
horse must be shod; but there certain-
ly is far too much shoeing done. It is
surprising how much work the horse
can do under most conditions without
shoes if he be brought gradually to
the work, and a little care and judg-
ment be exercised in this matter dur-
ing the first three or four years of
the colt’s life. As long as horses that
have weak or defective feet are used
for breeding purposes, just so long
will there be horses with predisposi-
tion to these things, and money will)
accordingly be lost on them. A horse
with fairly good feet will not need to
be shod unless he be worked on the
pavement, race track or in mountain-
ous districts. It is a mistake to allow
the blacksmith used to buttress on the
soles of the feet or the rasp on the
outside. Shoes should not be allowed
longer than four weeks on the horse
without resetting.

Intellectuality of the age demands that news with every important event of a city, co- ces it imperative and obligatory on an edi- tion to the fulfilment of these demands and key of the age. The Colorado Statesman feel to such efforts, and as is proven from tis numerous articles on this Thirty-second Knights Templar and the holding of its ore it has given information befitting its a- organization, the crusaders, the meaning etc., surely it is an opportune time for materially increase.
Colorado Statesman, therefore, joins its con- right hearty welcome to the visitors who for a week, hoping they will in returning them the most pleasant memories of our city
Beginning with our issue of July 18th and continuing in our succeeding issues up to the present, we have endeavored to keep before our readers our idea of publishing information relative to this convention, which carries with it so much of matter and food for thought to not only members of the Knights Templar organization but to every man, woman and child who feels their position as citizens of Denver and this great commonwealth of Colorado. Again and again have we tried out of our little storehouse of knowledge, backed up by the large sphere of journalism, to contribute in a broad measure to the literary taste and culture of our people, and while space is given in our columns for the social events, etc., yet never in our existence have we ever allowed that to be the dominant feature of our journal.
The intellectuality of the age demands that newspapers should keep in touch with every important event of a city, country and nation and makes it imperative and obligatory on an editor to subscribe his efforts to the fulfilment of these demands and keep in the progressiveness of the age. The Colorado Statesman feels proud of its subscription to such efforts, and as is proven from time to time, especially in its numerous articles on this Thirty-second Annual Conclave of the Knights Templar and the holding of its convention in this city where it has given information befitting its readers on the origin of the organization, the crusaders, the meaning of the various mottoes, etc., etc., surely it is an opportune time for its list of subscribers to materially increase...
The Colorado Statesman, therefore, joins its contemporaries in extending a right hearty welcome to the visitors who will be guests of the city for a week, hoping they will in returning to their homes take with them the most pleasant memories of our city and state.
NEGRO PROBLEM MISUNDERSTOOD
ment United States senator once made the too far as education goes, Mr. Booker T. than any one else that no colored man tested enough or made rich enough or respec- by any white man except on the kitchen "the gentleman is right. We see no way in this country will become broad enough and the white-man to sit down together as
A prominent United States senator once made the following assertion: "So far as education goes, Mr. Booker T. Washington knows better than any one else that no colored man in the South can be educated enough or made rich enough or respectable enough to be received by any white man except on the kitchen porch or in the barnyard." In part the gentleman is right. We see no way by which the social spirit in this country will become broad enough to compel the black man and the white man to sit down together as social equals. However, we fear that he does not fully understand Mr. Washington's purposes. Few Negroes in the United States have clamored for a closer social relation with the whites than they now enjoy. The best and most progressive Negroes in the country do not seem to be thrown in company as associates with the whites, but justice should insure them citizens' rights in all things.
Class registration should never be permitted to deprive them of a single right. True, no law can compel a white man to invite a Negro into his home as a visitor upon his family, and no law should be enacted that prevents a Negro man from exercising the same rights in his home. The Negro will never complain of his ostracism from the society of the whites so long as he is allowed to exercise each right that enables him to build up a society of his own.
To be seen in a railroad coach with a Negro passenger is not receiving the Negro as a guest. To sit in a pew near a Negro worshiper in church is not professing him a social equal. For a white man to occupy a seat in a theater next to a black man is not misconstrued by the black man to accept an invitation to the white man's home. The American Negro is the proudest man in the land and is more easily to pucker than any part of our citizens; he also knows just what treatment has been accorded him by the whites and he prefers, therefore, to keep his own company and stay to himself, where he will not find so much to feel bad about.
Mr. Washington and all the Negroes of thought do not prop the Negroes up for association with the whites in a social way, but to make them the white man's equal in business, virtues and ability; only this, and nothing more. An opinion expressed by the senator has much weight because he is recognized as one of the most thoughtful and able men in the world. The senator also writes:
"Deplorable as are the murders and lynchings of the blacks in the South, they bring us face to face with the fact that there is no future for the Negro in this country except political subjection and social ostracism." This, too, if the present conditions continue is true, but upon this as a basis of self-government hangs the destiny of the great republic. A people may bear ostracism without a murmer, but no people who are free and educated will tolerate forever political subjection. History shows that men, when fully aroused, resort to any means attainable to throw off a yoke of oppression. The time will come when the Negro soldiers will refuse to take up arms to defend the flag, but will gladly join their strength to that of any power that strives to destroy this cruel and corrupt government.
The mob that murders and tortures defenseless men are the people who are condemning this nation, and one sweet day the Negro, the wronged man, the despised man, will laugh at the ruin of a nation, a people and government that wronged him for so many years. The blood of the slain shall not forever go unavenged.

BRIGHT COLORS FOR CHILDREN'S HATS
THE LADY AND THE GIRL
LITTLE maids are fortunate in having the greatest variety in hats to choose from that has ever been provided for them. Any number of shapes, diminutives of those brought out for grown-ups, have been made for little girls. Two of them, suited to children from five to ten years, are shown here.
In these, as in so many of the new fall models, the shapes are covered with plush and faced with soft, thin silk.
The hat with brim turning up at the side has a soft crown, a puff of plush unsupported by wires or buckram. This is one of the features of new millinery. It is carefully finished and is untrimmed except for the small wing mounted at the front. Plushes and velvets do not admit of much trimming.
The little bonnet covered with plush, shown in the second picture, has a crown in the shape. The plush is fitted smoothly over crown and brim. This model is made of black plush with facing of light blue ribbon, side-plaited. There is a sash and knotted tie of the same ribbon for trimming. But what delights the eyes of the little wearer most is the little cluster of blue and pink ostrich feathers, regular baby plumes, which is mounted at the left and near the back of the bonnet.
Much velvet ribbon and many simple fancy feathers are featured in children's millinery. Girls of all ages have been carefully considered and amply provided for in the new season's styles by those who specialize and make only headwear for them.
Bright colors and rich fabrics have been perfectly managed and children's millinery is more interesting and more attractive than ever.

COLORS IN UPTURNED HEMS
Pretty Idea, and the Latest in Vogue, Is to Have Contrast With the Rest of the Skirt.
The innovation in upturned hems on the outside of the skirt has given the colorists another chance to put in a dash of tone that will contrast with the rest of the skirt. As Roman stripes and Scotch plaids continue to reappear, on the best of the new clothes, it is only natural that they should find an abiding place at the bottom of the skirt or at the edge of one of those wired tunics that are made of all kinds of thin material.
There is a dark blue coat suit of gabardine which has a two-inch hem of red, white and blue plaid bound with a black velvet ribbon at the top; the coat does not have a collar of the plaid which is the first thing one thinks of its having, but the Scotch silk shows up as envelope flaps to the three pockets, which are edged with a black velvet ribbon and fastened over a black velvet button.
To Embroider for "Him."
It is not often that one finds an opportunity to embroider anything but monograms on a man's clothing. A certain proud spouse, however, recently became an object of envy to his friends when he displayed for their admiring glances an embroidered silk shirt. His skillful wife had filled in with lavender silk floss the small lavender designs on the white ground. In this particular instance the embroidering was done after the shirt was made up, just as it had come from the haberdasher's. If the shirt is made at home, the embroidering is done before the material is made up. The satin stitch is used with pleasing results for this purpose. It is only necessary to embroider the front.
All-Black Hat Smartest
The all-black hat is the smart headgear of the hour, regardless of the shape, and it is a practical choice for the beach. A black hat does not look quite as summery or light as an all-white hat, but the sun cannot damage it as it can one of colored straw, or even one of the natural tone straw, which may become actually sunburnt. There is a fad for trimming some of the black hats with blue ribbon bows, and a few of the bolder spirits among the fashion leaders are appearing in brown straw hats. When the latter are worn with brown shoes and stockings and a sash of brown moire or tulle the effect is really artistic.
Sweet Odors.
The greatest profusion of sweet edors comes to us from France and always are the perfumers adding a new triumph to their art. Faint, delicate perfumes haunt us as does the breath of spring. A scent that combines a spicy, woodsy smell with the faint, sweet suggestion of flowers is one of the new bouquet perfumes.
Colored Coat.
The coat of colored jersey cloth has taken the place of the sweater for outdoor wear, says the New York Press. It is made loose, with a belt of the material, envelope pockets and wide turnover cuffs that are stitched at the edge.

DAINTIEST OF BOUDOIR BAGS
Sweet Grass, Modeled in Pretty Shapes, Excellent Receptacles for the Summer Fancy Work.
Sweet grass receptacles seem to be the most suitable of all fabrics for holding summer fancy work, and the smaller-sized baskets come in wonderfully attractive shapes to be transformed into bags. One size, a miniature replica of the old-fashioned stocking basket, is fitted with a satin bag attached plainly an inch from the mouth of the basket, consist of a sweet grass thimble holder, a tiny satin emery and a reel of thread. Trimming the outer rim of the basket's mouth or lip are clusters of narrow satin ribbon alternating with tabs ending with little bowknots, also in ribbon.
Still more practical is a round and flat sweet grass basket in Roman colorings, to which is attached a huge bagop of flowered satin lined with China silk. By stitching the outer side of the bag and its lining perpendicularly, to divide them into four sections, and then running draw ribbons through their several shirred tops, four separate pockets for sewing utensils can be formed, leaving a space in the center of the main bag for miscellaneous articles.
IN BLACK CHARMEUSE

Here is a practical model in black charmeuse with a cross-over bodice and pointed basque. The sleeves are in white ninon trimmed with lace and finished with soft satin ribbon. A separate tulle gulmeim may be worn over the bared throat if preferred.

SCHOOL AND HOME
New Division in the Bureau of Education.
Department Organizing Branch Whereby it Is Hoped to Bring Parents and Teachers Nearer Together—4,000,000 Mothers to Help.
Washington.—Before another school year rolls around Uncle Sam will have invited more than 4,000,000 mothers of the country to join in the working out of a co-operative plan whereby it is hoped to bring home and school nearer together, to help the parent to get the viewpoint of the teacher on one hand and on the other to help the teacher to guide little Johnny or Mary along lines of thought and work which will make the child a greater help in the home and assist it to develop into a better citizen in the nation.
During the hot months of summer, when both grown-ups and children are giving more attention to vacation plans than to school matters, experts in the United States bureau of education have just begun the organization of a new division to direct this new co-operative work, which will aim at the upbuilding of two of the most important American institutions, the school and the home. For the want of a better name, the new branch of the bureau has been called the division of home education, which might suggest that the purpose of the government is to turn homes into schools. The encouragement of co-operation between parent and teacher, however, is the sole purpose of the division, and in no manner will its work conflict with the activities of the school.
The National Congress of Mothers of the United States is responsible for the establishment of the new branch of the bureau of education. The division now being organized will not be provided for out of government funds, but will be maintained by virtue of a co-operative arrangement with this large mothers' organization, which will provide financial backing for the work, which will be directed and supervised by experts of the bureau of education. This method of providing for the work is similar to the plan followed by the government in conducting the co-operative farm demonstration work in the south, which is made possible largely by funds provided by the general education board, a part of the Rockefeller Foundation. The same system of government cooperation with semi-private institutions is in operation in financing the new rural organization service of the department of agriculture, congress providing $50,000 for part of the work and the general education board subscribing larger amounts to extend the lines of investigations.
The new division of home education will enable the government to give official sanction to the important work of the parent-teacher associations which have been encouraged by the National Congress of Mothers, and which are now organized in most of the large school centers of the country. The purpose in organizing the divisions is to extend the same idea of co-operation between home and school in the rural and small town communities which the parent-teacher associations have developed in the large cities.
With this end in view, Commissioner P. P. Claxton of the bureau of education has just mailed to a list of 4,000 county superintendents of schools a letter asking their cooperation in the work about to be taken up by the division of home education, requesting the names of the schools under their supervision in the open country, villages or small towns, and the names of at least two women of intelligence and influence in the vicinity of every elementary and high school. The women, preferably mothers, will be asked to cooperate in the work of the home education division by organizing parent-teacher associations for the discussion of the care and training of children in the home both before and after school age. In the entire country it is expected that there will be named at least 4,000,000 mothers who will cooperate with the government in the work of connecting up school and home to the mutual advantage of both.
The announcement made a few days ago that the pure food law has been invoked by the government to control the illicit cocaine traffic in the United States has brought in many inquiries from persons who want to know why the same law will not be used to cover the traffic in other dangerous habit-forming drugs. Among the drugs about the control of which inquiries have been made are opium, morphine, codein, heroin, dionin, peronin and several others.
The reason which has been given by officials at the treasury department and the bureau of chemistry is that the importation of opium and its derivatives, such as morphine and other drugs, is now regulated, to a greater or lesser extent, by the special opium law of 1909. While this law does not give as thorough control of the traffic in these drugs as the new treasury department regulation will provide for the control of cocaine, coca and its derivatives, it was not considered wise to include opium and opium preparations for the reason that the administration of the new regulation might conflict with the operation of the opium law of 1909. If it is found that the new regulation works well on the control of cocaine it is possible
that a request will be made for the repeal of the opium law and the application of the pure food law to all habit-forming drugs. The new cocaine regulation will make it necessary for an affidavit to be filled out and signed for every sale of cocaine from the time it reaches the importer at one of the large ports until it reaches the hands of the ultimate consumer. These affidavite will have to be sworn to and a record of the same will have to be made by the dealer, and both sales book and affidavits kept on file for regular inspection by government officials.
Plans are now being made for printing the forms of affidavits which will have to be signed by each importer and purchaser of cocaine, and also the forms of record which each dealer will have to keep and submit to the bureau of chemistry in January of each year. The start which the government has made in controlling the use of dangerous habit-forming drugs is in line with the course which has been pursued by a number of foreign countries which has restricted the sale and use of these drugs most rigidly for a number of years. Nothing in the government's regulation will restrict the use of cocaine in legitimate medical practice, for it is recognized, of course, that only the indiscriminate and promiscuous use of cocaine, opium, morphine and other drugs is dangerous and that the administration of these agents by skillful hands contributes to the relief of pain and suffering.
Senator Jones of Washington is the earliest kind of a bird. Just when the other dignitaries of the senate are turning over in their morning beds for forty winks more he's down at his desk, already elbow-deep in the day's work.
The first morning Senator Jones appeared in the senate building at the gruesome hour of half-past seven in the morning, all fed, shaven and eager for the day's work, the elevator was still asleep. The only thing around to represent the majesty of the United States was the antique negro watchman.
The senator's office was two flights up and he was in a hurry.
"Here, you," he exploded upon the solitary darky, "can you run this elevator up to my office?"
"No, boss, I can't," replied the startled attendant.
"Then I can!" rapped out Senator Jones. "Open that door!"
The old darky, bewildered at the whirlwind methods of the western senator, opened up the elevator. The senator grabbed the levers; there was a whirr—and they had arrived!
Every morning since Senator Jones steers that restive elevator along its devious course from the basement to the second floor, carrying as a passenger an admiring darky watchman, whose astonishment at the versatile genius of the pilot is growing daily.
Representative Benjamin G. Humphreys of Mississippi and Butler
Histories Are Interwoven.
Ames, who represented the fifth Massachusetts district in the house until March 4, had personal histories that were curiously interwoven.
Mr. Humphreys is the son of Brig. Gen. Benjamin G. Humphreys of Confederate fame, and Mr. Ames, the son of Maj. Gen. Adelbert Ames and the grandson of "Ben" Butler. Mr. Humphrey's father was made governor of Mississippi in 1865, the year the present congressman was born, but the family had enjoyed the shelter of the executive roof only two or three years when Mr. Ames' father came along and evicted them.
General Ames, aided by federal soldiers, descended on the Humphreys' establishment, forcibly ejected the governor and his family, and took possession of the mansion under the authority of "military governor."
Neither of the sons of the famous soldiers treasures any animosity over the occurrence, however. Both are veterans of the Spanish war, where they served under the same flag.
High Schools Social Force.
uplift and advancement of civilization,
in the opinion of Dr. T. J. Jones of the
united bureau of education. In a
statement issued through the bureau
Doctor Jones declares that with the
teachers of social science and history
in these schools rests the responsibility
of developing this force for national
good.
"Good citizenship should be the direct aim of the high school courses in social science and history," says Doctor Jones. "Good citizenship is the test that must be applied to every topic in these courses. Facts, conditions, theories, activities, which do not contribute directly to the appreciation of methods of human betterment have no claim on the mind of the high-school pupil.
"Every pupil should know, of course, how the president of the United States is elected, but he should also understand the duties of the health officer in his community."
Here It Is.
Representative Willis of Ohio champion speller of Congress, the other day received a word which he admitted he could neither spell nor pronounce. It was the name of $ Chicago Greek confectioner and was sent to Willis by his brother. Here it is: "James Papatheodorokoumoun tourgeotopoula."

CLARK WANTS ACTION
CLARK WANTS ACTION
SENATOR DECLARES LIND IS ON USELESS MISSION.
Wyoming Man Says Conditions in Mexico Are Growing Worse and Americans Must Be Protected.
Western Newspaper Union News Service.
Washington—President Wilson's action in sending former Governor John Lind to Mexico as a special emissary in the present situation was attacked in the Senate by Senator Clark of Wyoming, who declared "something else must be done by the administration" to guarantee adequate protection to Americans.
Senator Clark presented a resolution for an immediate investigation by the Senate foreign relations of the condition of American citizens and American property in Mexico.
"This resolution is not introduced in a spirit of hostility to the administration or of criticism of the foreign relations committee," declared the senator, "but conditions are growing steadily worse in Mexico.
"Now we learn that Governor Lind has been sent there by President Wilson. That does not satisfy. Mr. Lind does not go as the official representative of the United States. He does not go as an American ambassador, cloaked with authority to represent the United States. He canont be appealed to by American citizens for protection. Some other steps are necessary to give to Americans and American property the protection they need and are demanding."
Senator Sheppard presented a summary of the strength of the Constitutionalist forces in Mexico. He declared the Senate should have complete knowledge of the number of Constitutionalist leaders, the troops they could muster, the extent of the territory controlled and the extent of their equipment.
Senator Sheppard's report showed that the Constitutionalist leaders had followers numbering between 60,000 and 80,000 and that they were in possession of far more than half of Mexico.
"We are unable to get exact and definite information," said Senator Clark, "about conditions in Mexico. Evidence still continues, however, to show that American property is being destroyed every day, that American citizenship is being dishonored there and even officers of the American government are being shot down.
"It is no purpose of this resolution to place the responsibility for these outrages. It is to obtain information. I know there is a disposition at times to regard such information as confidential. But in my judgment that is not the proper course now because it is no secret that other nations than ourselves are interested in the situation. Conditions are being talked of, not only in the Senate but elsewhere. The conditions cannot long be borne with by the American republic. Something must be done or something will be done. I do not intend to ask for a vote on the resolution at this time.
Col. Sudado Hay, chief of staff of the Constitutionalist forces in Sonora, accompanied by A. P. Ardourel of Boulder, Colo., gave to the Senate foreign relations committee a detailed account of his views on conditions in Mexico. The Constitutionalist movement, he declared, controlled at least two-thirds of Mexico. Though he made no recommendation, Colonel Hay insisted that intervention by the United States would make things worse, and that any mediation which recognized the government of Huerta was impossible. His idea of the solution of the situation was to lift the embargo on arms, so that the Constitutionalists could carry on a more active campaign. Then, he declared, troubles in Mexico soon would be settled.

THE BALKAN WAR IS ENDED
ENVOYS AT BUCHAREST ARRIVE
AT AGREEMENT TO STOP
SLAUGHTER.
ARMISTICE IS SIGNED
REPRESENTATIVES OF GREECE,
ROUMANIA, MONTENEGRO,
BULGARIA, AGREE.
Western Newspaper Union News Service.
Bucharest.—A peace agreement was reached here at a conference of representatives of Greece, Roumania, Montenegro and Bulgaria.
The war between the Balkan allies, who had fought shoulder to shoulder against Turkey, began on July 1st. On that date the Servian minister of the interior declared that Servia was at war with Bulgaria. On the same day Greece also announced that a state of war existed, but did not make a formal declaration. Roumania declared war on July 10th and moved her troops over the Bulgarian frontier to occupy the strip of territory from Sillistria, on the Danube, to Varna, on the Black Sea, which she claimed, "in order to re-establish the balance of power." The trouble between the allies arose from the difficulty of dividing the territory captured by them from Turkey. Severe fighting followed and many thousand men were killed or wounded. Soon after the beginning of hostilities numerous massacres and acts of pillage were reported to have been committed by the various armies. The Montenegrin troops never came into action during the period of hostilities although they also were nominally at war with Bulgaria.
Under the agreement Bulgaria obtains a considerable portion of northern Macedonia—much more than the allies were at first inclined to give her—and also about 80 miles of the Aegean seaboard, which will enable her to build her projected railroad from Philippolis to the Aegean.
BRYAN SENDS PEACE MESSAGE.
Urges Mexico to Await Word From President Wilson.
Mexico City.—The following telegram from Secretary of State Bryan was received at the American legation:
"You may say to the minister of foreign affairs that Governor Lind comes to Mexico on a mission of peace and that the President feels sure his presence there will contribute toward a settlement of the difficulties. The Mexican government should await the President's communication and not give weight to misrepresentations published in sensational newspapers."
Mexico City.—John Lind, special representative of President Wilson of the United States, now on his way to Mexico, will be persona non grata to the Mexican government unless he brings credentials in due form "together with recognition of the government of Mexico," according to an official statement issued here.
Manuel Garza Aldape, minister of public instruction, who is acting as minister of foreign affairs, issued a statement to the United States embassy, and sent it to Europe, saying:
"By order of the President of the republic I declare as minister of foreign affairs ad interim that if Mr. Lind does not bring credentials in due form, together with recognition of the government of Mexico, his presence in this country will not be desirable."
VIOLENT STORM AT SHOSHONI.
Two Houses Struck by Lightning and Great Damage by Cloudburst.
Shoshoni, Wyo. — Two residences, occupied by families named Harned and Frill, were struck by lightning during a terrific storm and completely destroyed by the ensuing fires. The members of the families were stunned by the electric shock but escaped from the flames, losing all their possessions. The storm was the most violent in years and was accompanied by a downpour of rain that flooded the streets. Damage running into thousands was done by the flood waters, while the burning of the Harned and Frill houses added $5,000 to the total loss.

SIX HAVE REQUIRED NUMBER OF
NAMES—ONE SHORT.
Secretary Pearce Rejects Alamosa
County Bill Referendum—Util-
ities Measure to Be Sub-
Western Newspaper Union News Service.
Denver.—Secretary of State Pearce announced that the check of the names on the referendum petition filed on bills passed by the last Legislature had been completed.
The petition for a referendum vote on the bill creating Alamosa county, out of portions of Conejos and Costillo counties, was rejected on the ground that it was 629 names short of the required number. The other six referendum petitions were found to have enough signatures.
They are: A petition referring the entire public utility bill; a petition referring sections 35, 36 and 37 of the public utility bill; a petition referring sections 36 and 37 of the public utility bill; a petition referring the commission merchants' bill; a petition referring the bill forbidding privatelypaid deputy sheriffs, and a petition referring the bill changing the law on assumption of risks.
The effect of the rejection of this petition will be that the Alamosa county law is now effective and the county, for which no officers have been appointed, has a legal existence.
The six referendum petitions which were legally filed and one initiated bill, declaring newspapers to be public utilities, are all now in sight for a vote at the next state election.
Will Prosecute Alleged Ice Trust.
Denver.—State Labor Commissioner Edwin V. Brake declares that he has discovered an ice trust in Colorado and that he will ask that steps be taken to prosecute it. Brake asserts that evidence of the existence of the trust was found during the strike of teamsters and building trades now on at Pueblo.
"The strikers wanted to supply ice during the strike to such as did not want to get it from nonunion drivers," said Brake. "They found it impossible to buy the ice in Colorado, although they had the money in the bank to pay for it on delivery. One carload was shipped from Denver, but after that the supply was cut off. If that is not clear evidence of the existence of an ice combine I do not know what is."
Hunting and Fishing Licenses, $6,000.
Denver.—With the receipts for July twice those for the same month of 1912, members of the State Fish and Game Commission believe the sale of licenses in 1913 will net $60,000. Fishing and hunting licenses in the last two years have brought the state $53,729. Last year the receipts were $30,000, and it is believed that this amount will be doubled. Under the law, passed by the Nineteenth General Assembly with an emergency clause, residents of Colorado must pay one dollar for a fishing and hunting license. Non-residents must pay $10 for a hunting license and $12 for a combination license.
McGinnis Gets Highest Rating.
Denver.—The State Civil Service Commission announced the result of the examination for state immigration commissioner, which was held March 4. J. Stanley McGinnis of Denver received the highest mark and will probably receive the appointment. This position was abolished by the Legislature, but Governor Ammons voed the bill and the bureau will be supported partly by public and partly by private funds. Of the forty who took the test twenty-one passed.
Mothers' Pension Fund Exhausted.
Denver.—A report of mothers' pensions to be distributed between January 1, 1913, and January 1, 1914, under the new mother's compensation law, has been completed by Juvenile Court officers. It shows that the entire appropriation of $4,800 for pensions in Denver has been exhausted. Mrs. Ida L. Gregory, clerk of the Juvenile Court, who acts as adviser to the court in awarding pensions, asks for an appropriation of $15,000 in 1914.
STATE CAPITAL NOTES.
Attorney General Farrar has advised Insurance Commissioner Epsteen that the new insurance code prohibits local licensed insurance agents from paying insurance brokers a commission.
The board of capitol managers awarded a contract for the construction of eight new ornamental lighting standards, two of which are to be placed at each of the four entrances of the building.
Two amended rules, giving state institutions and employes greater liberty in the matter of appointments and vacations have been put in effect by the Civil Service Commission.
An increase in valuation of $22,528,999 is announced by the Colorado Tax Commission in its first annual assessment of the public utility corporations of the state.
Statehouse employees are disturbed over a report that suit is to be filed by state educational institutions to change the classifications of appropriations for boards and bureaus.

The Loyal Knights and Ladies of Malachites is incorporated under the laws of the District of Columbia. Its object is to combine the Negroes of the west with mutual advenience along industrial and commercial lines. It also stands for the full extent by the Negro his civil and political rights. This movement is international in its scope; we have lodges not only in the United States but in Jamaica, B. W. I., Colon, Colon del Toro, Panama (Canal Zone) and Costa Rica. It is a dark day for the Negro and he must come together. Each congregation because of their ple were told that by contributing there to the race only would be benefited, but no tangible individual benefits were offered. By our plan the member pays $30 for one month in the association and receives $400 per week sick benefits and $100 at death. We not only look after the race but each individual member as well. A big congregation went to a hotel. We want a lodge in every village, hamlet and town and a delegate to be sent to this convention. Organizers wanted everywhere. For fall participants, we have

We have just closed a very successful quarterly conference. The presence of Presiding Elder Ward was responsible for unusually large audiences, evidencing the high esteem in which he is held by the citigeny of Denver. The services Sunday were highly spiritual and three persons were received into the church. Quarterly reports rendered, showed that $1,607.10 had been collected for the trustees department; $489.51 for the stewards; and $65. for Christian Education. The conference closed with a sort of testimonial meeting and the presiding Elder and pastor were warmly commanded for the splendid achievements of the year, and in which the prayer for the return of both was unanimous.
We are glad to welcome back to our communion Mr. and Mrs. Royal C. Brown who has been on a bridal tour embracing points of interest along the Pacific coast, and the International convention of Christian Endeavor at Los Angeles, Cal.
