B Convince Secretary Mc "Jim Crowism" Pre Washington, D. C. Aug. 27. From an authentic source it has been learned that the Administration has decided to modify the segregation order issued a few months ago by the heads of various departments, and that President Wilson, Secretary of the Treasury McAdoo and other prominent officials have concluded that the "Jim Crowing" of Governmental employees does not reflect credit on the United States. The powers that be first have evidence of assuming a change in front by ordering the signs "For Colored Only," and "For White Only," taken down. These signs had been put over the entrance of toilets. Secretary McAdoo issued the order on August 15. Two men are said to be chiefly responsible for the removal of the obnoxious signs—Bishop Alexander Walters and Register J. C. Napier. Both had long talks with Secretary McAdoo on the subject. Their arguments against the presence of "Jim Crow" signs in the Treasury Department evidently bore good fruit, as Secretary McAdoo ordered the signs taken down shortly after his talks with Messrs, Napier and Walters. There is every reason to believe that the colored and white clarks will be permitted to work wherever they desire before many weeks have passed. When seen by an Age representative, J. C. Napier, who is still acting as Register of the Treasury, admitted that he had had a lengthy talk with Secretary McAdoo and that a few days later the signs had been taken down. "Mr. McAdoo was very courteous in his treatment to me," said Mr. Napier. "He gave instructions that we were not to be bothered by anyone. We talked for nearly an hour. I told him of the indignities the race had suffered by the policy adopted by the Administration to segregate the colored clerks, and sought to impress upon him the fallacy of making the clerks use separate toilets. When I left him Mr. McAdoo informed me that all that I had said would be given serious consider- ation. Then he asked me to call and see him before I left Washington. It was a few days later that I learned the signs had been taken down, and I was very much elated." Bishop Walters is elated over the victory, as the Administration has done much to embarras him since March 4. In speaking of his fight against "Jim Crowism," Bishop Walters said: "Upon my return from the West I had a conference with a number of prominent Negroes of Washington, and it was decided that I should call on President Wilson and Secretary McAdoo and protest against the segregation of colored clerks in the employ of the Government and against the presence of "Jim Crow" signs. The impelling force that prompted me to call on President Wilson and Secretary McAdoo was my talk with the Washtonians and the Articles and cartoons appearing in The Age. "I first visited Secretary McAdoo, accompanied by my friends, and we were cordially received. I told Mr McAdoo of the humiliation the Negroes of the country had been subjected to on account of the discriminating attitude of the Government, and he assured us that he was not in favor of discouraging and embarrassing the colored citizens. When we left, Secretary McAdoo promised to take up the matter at once. "President Wilson was next visited, and he, too, assured us that he was not inclined to be disrespectful to the race and promised to confer with Secretary McAdoo and tue heads of other departments. This was on August 14. The next day 1 was informed that the signs were down. The removal of the "Jim Crow" signs is a great victory for the Negro press and Negroes of this country."—New York Age. Charleston, W. Va., Aug 26. Governor Hatfield has appointed W. W. Sanders, a Negro, to the position of State Libarian. The appointment is regarded by the colored people of this section as a substantial move toward future political recognition. DENVER COLORADO SATURDAY. SEPTEMBER 6 1913. State Hist & Nat Hist Books State House ANTS WHO ADO E JOURNAL DENVER COLORADO LONDON CROWDS GO WILD OVER JACK JOHNSON (Chicago Tribune) London, Aug. 25.—The man in the street showed tonight in an ememphatic manner that he does not share in the hostility to Jack Johnson, the American Negro pugilist. He regards the Negro as the victim of persecution which is due to color prejudice. Notwithstanding the announcement that Johnson's appearance had been postponed, the Euston music hall and South London music hall, where he had been billed to appear, were densely crowded tonight, and there were great mobs outside of each. Johnson's first turn was at the Euston. Here there was a great uproar from the moment the curtain went up. The audience was determined to have, and stood up and shouted for him. They refused to listen to two comediennes who had refused to appear if Johnson did, but in consequence of the postponement of his appearance had agreed to go on. The audience drowned the efforts of these two young women with whistles, cat calls and hisses, and they were obliged to retire, and the whole show was held up. Presently a roar of cheering outside the hall announced that something was happening. Johnson's car had arrived with the big Negro who was all smiles. The crowd yelled with delight at Johnson's appearance and climed all over the car in an effort to shake hands with him. Johnson was almost smothered by the mob that got on all parts of the car, and the police had great difficulty in clearing a pathway for the pugilist to the entrance. Johnson and his friends marched in under the leadership of Manager Loxer of the hall. The lights were down but the audience got a glimpse of Johnson and cheered frantically for several minutes. They also shouted words of encouragement to the pugilist a few dissentents vainly protesting by hissing. Johnson stood smiling and bowing for several minutes. Then he left and tried to escape the crowd by taking a taxicab at another entrance. This was useless however, and the police had another job in ridding the car of those who were clinging to it. When at length the car was free and started hundreds ran alongside of it for distance. There were similar scenes at the South London music hall. Here Johnson made a speech in which he said, among other things: "My only crime is that I beat Jeffries." When he left there were scenes similar to those at his departure from Euston Hall. --- NEWS FROM ESTES PARK (By our special correspondent) The tourist season is almost to its close, but owing to the fine weather conditions that are prevailing, the management of the various hotels viz., Stanley Park, Hupp, Elkhorn, etc. are considering with much seriousness the advisability of catering to their patrons a little longer than the time heretofore. Quite a number of Denver and Colorado Springs folks have visited the different hotels, and have not only been day visitors but week-end. Their praises have been numerous with regards to the treatment they have received, and particularly the Stanley Hotel, from its unique picturesqueness, backed by the courteous treatment of the management (with its colored assistants and attendants) that it offers to its patrons for upwards of four years seems to be in the category of (Savoy, Kaiserhof, Albany or any other up-to-date hostelries in the state. It must be mentioned that the Stanley Hotel alone employs colored helps—cooks, waiters, bellmen, porters, etc.; and from the opinions freely expressed by the people, Mr. Lamborn the manager, has resolved to keep colored men in their various employments. STANLEY HOTEL EMPLOYEES UNDER THE ESCORT OF MESSRS CURTIS HABRIS, AND ODDMAN BENNETT VISITS LONG'S PEAK INN Who can study the true cosmogony of nature? While this question is unanswerable, yet a party of fourteen of the employees of the Stanley Hotel, arrived at the conclusion after making a trip to Long's Peak Inn on Tuesday last under the escort of Messrs Curtis Harris and Oddman Bennett, that only man, through his inquisitiveness can unfold to the world some information of nature's wonder and her beauty. The following persons comprised the party:Mr. and Mrs. Bennett, Messrs Rand, Granger, Hogue, Hall, Collins, White, Martin, Cowden, Hewetson-Watson, Harris, and Oh, such an experience and privileged opportunity afforded them. It could be compared to almost the value of a lifetime. The Inn Stands on an elevation of nine thousand feet, and from this position a clear view of the great Long's Peak can be seen. The party was very cordially received by Mr. Mills, proprietor of the Inn who has been in the country nearly thirty years, and who has a regular staff of men providing information for visitors. Examples of the wonderful performance of the Beaver in its work of felling some of the most gigantic trees, (outclassing the notable axeman comparatively) as well as the results were shown and on exhibition at the Inn—every article therein was made from the timbers that abound this vast region, and one was compelled to reason with ourself of the "wonders of creation" various other places of interest were visited on the trip. RACE NEWS GATHERED FROM VARIOUS SOURCES Colored Odd Fellows of New Haven, Conn., have erected a $40.000 building. At Salisbury, N. C., colored women have organized for the purpose of cleaning up that portion of the city occupied by members of their race. The mayor will aid them in their efforts. A Home for incorrigible colored girls is to be erected in Missouri, the Missouri Legislature appropriating $230,000 for the building and equipment of the same, and $50,000 for its maintenance. New Iberia, La.-The New Orleans Picayune reports that the selection of a site for the Southern University was practically decided recently after a thorough survey of various farms near the city by the state committee. The committee was unanimous in selection of the P. A. Landry plantation, located about two miles from the city. Within a radius of ten miles from Baltimore, we are told, there are a good deal more than 100,000 Negroes, the largest number in the same area anywhere with the sing'e exception of Washington. The only northern cities (not counting either this city or Baltimore as such) having large Negro populations are New York, with 91,700, and Philadelphia with 84,450. The fifteen Negro men now in charge of the elevators in the County Hospital at Chicago, noting that a Civil Service examination would be held for applicants desiring said positions, applied at the stated time and passed the examination satisfactorily. It is stated that the following day several white candidates appeared and requested that the examination passed successfully by the Negro men be set aside, as they were unable to be present. President McCormick, of the Board of County Commissioners, refused their request. The first day's session of the National Negro Business league convention was devoted to a discussion of general merchandising' the development of insurance business among Negroes, the Negro inventor, and the forward to the country movement among the members of the race. Statistics were presented to show that the NO 1 Negro is crowding into the large cities, to the detriment of his material advance and health. Washington, Baltimore, Philadelphia and New York were mentioned as having an excess Negro population measured by the opportunities the colored man has in those cities. Appeal was made to President Wilson by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People against the agitation looking to the segregation of the Negroes and whites employed in the government departments in Washington. Since the new administration came into power pressure has been brought to bear upon the executive and legislative branches of the government to bring about sucu a reform. The appeal to the president declares such an act would be not only a "gross injustice" to the Negro race but that it would limit the chances of the Negro for promotion and advancement, but that it would be cited as the excuse for "new racial outrages." How a colored man connected with Barnum & Bailey's Circus protected a white woman traveling with the show from the viciousness of a white ruffian, and who consequently met death for defending the woman, is being told by white papers in various sections of the country. The Billbboard gives the following account of the incident:—When Barnum and Bailey's Circus was exhibiting at S'oux Falls this week, a white man was discovered peeking through a hole in the canvas of the ladies' dressing room. An employ of the circus who made the discovery took the intruder by the collar and hastened him to a region beyond the circus lot, and administered seasonable advice between kicks. The employee went by the name of "Mule," the only name he had so far as his associates and employers were concerned. He had been picked up a few weeks before, and his skin was as black as night. But "Mule" had a high sense of right and wrong, of purity, virtue and good citizenship. Late that night when the last loads were being hurried to the railroads Mule's dead body was found in the brush, where he had been at work pulling the pins which had held the top. While there were no eye witnesses to the tragedy, suspicion points to the big white ruffian who had peeked through the canvas.

HUERTA TO QUIT; LIND SUCCESSFUL TREVINOTO PRESIDENCY Western. Newspaper meee sre sre Washing‘on, D. C., Sept. 4—John Lind has reported to President Wil- son that he now regards his mission as having been successfully accom- plished. Mr. Line’s confidence is based on the conviction that the one great obstacle in the way of agreement be- tween the United States and Mexico has at last been removed. Direct and positive assurence that General Huerta will not be a candidate for the prseldency of Mexico at the coming election has, it is stated, been given to the government of the United States by Frederick Gamboa, minis- ter for forelgn affairs. Mr. Gamboa, who has acted as Gen- eral Huerta’s spokesman in the nego- tiations with the United States, gave this assurance to Nelson O'Shaugh- nessy, American charge d'affaires, who has kept in constant touch with the Mexican foreign office since Mr. Lind left Mexico City for Vera Cruz. It was given verbally, but it is re- warded by Mr. O'Shaughnessy and Mr. Lind as none the less valuable on that account, Huerta to Become Candidate. Mexico City.—That General Huerta intends to resign the presidency in fa- for of General Geronimo Trevino, son- in-law of former General Ord, U.S. A., and became a candidate at the Octo- ber elections, is the statement made by a well-known Mexican close to the administration, General Trevino is making his way to the capital and no little effort has been made to disguise the fact that he has been summoned officially, Just how the contemplated succession is to be brought about had not been dis- closed. ‘There are persistent rumors of im- pending changes in the Cabinet, and it is said that General Trevino is to be made minister of foreign relations in order legally to succeed to the residener.’ THAW SET FREE; REARRESTED.

Five Injured in Auto Crash on Pre- cipice Near Lyons. Longmont, Colo—Annie Marie Jack- son, aged 14 years, daughter of Mrs. Mary C. Pryor of Denver, was killed and five other occupants of a big Stan- ley steamer car, driving on the Estes Park to Boulder line, were seriously injured in an accident seven miles northwest of Lyons. The machine turned over when it was guided into the mountain side after the brakes refused to act and after a terrific speed had been attained. The Jack- son girl was caught under the heavy car and crushed to instant death. The other injured occupants were also pinned under the car. The injured are: Mrs. Mary C. Pry- or, Denver, mother of the Jackson girl who was killed, fractured collar bone and three ribs broken; Mrs. Fred Bax- trum of Estes Park, hand crushed; the young son of Mrs. Baxtrum, shoul- der crushed, arm may have to be am- putated; A. H, Wolcott, driver of the machine, hand crushed and kneecap severely bruised; H. W. Hopkins Boulder, scalp wound and hip hurt. Monument: Dedicated: Colorado Springs.—A monument to the memory of Charles Everhart, who was killed and scalped by Navajo In- dians on September 3, 1868, was un- veiled here on the exact spot where the tragedy occurred, Speeches were delivered by Governor Ammons, David Spielman of Ouray, who was sheriff here at the time of the outrage, and General Frank D- Baldwin of Denver, a famous Indian fighter. The monu- ment was erected by the El Paso Coun- ty Pioneer Society, AFRO-AMERICAN CULLINGS “Suwanee River’ is no more charac- veristic of the Negro than “Dixie” is typical of a Fiji Islander. “Old Black Joe” depicts the life of the Negro be- cause many of our folks believe in deathbed visions. “Poor Old Ned” is another favorite of ours, the first verse running thus: Lad down de shubble and de hoe, Hang up de fiddle and de bow; Dar’s no more work for poor old Ned— He's gone whah de good niggahs go. Most white folk seem to think that the banjo is a familiar instrument of black folk of the south. It is used mostly by what are known as the roustabouts. The men of this type usually wear felt hats with four creases, which indicates “Work I will not.” He sings such songs as “Rail- road Bill,” while the banjo all but talks as he sings, and plays “Can't Get dr Letter From Down the Road.” The jewsharp is used by the corn: field men of color. The guitar be- longs largely to the better class of Ne- gro men. Hthiopian damsels are somewhat like the Spanish maids— they like soft music and love songs. If you wish to hear plantation mel- odies with variations sung with natural harmony, go to the important cities and towns of the south and get in touch with those sons of Ham who go about serenading nights. Of- tentimes when Miss Sallie and her suitor are sitting on the piazza in- haling the fragrance of the night as the moon sends down its soft gray light, they'll be surprised to hear a sudden sound of voices ring out on the big lawn: “Oh, darkies, won't you meet there, where the moonlight seems to glitter?” But if you wish to hear real, soul- stirring songs, go among the camp meetings and hear them sing “Little David, Play on Your Harp.” This is che verse: Little David, play on your harp, Halleiu! Hallelu! Little David, play on your harp. Hallelu! “D” for little David, “G” for Goliah, And “D" for little David, who slew Goliah. Little David, play on your harp. Hallelu!—Henry Allen in the ' New York Tribune. Fifty years ago virtually all negroes were farm hands, and few owned their own farms. Now, while agricul- ture is still the predominant occupa- tion, there are negroes in every line of work, and 900,000 farms are oper- ated by them. They own more land than is embraced in the state of South Carolina. Thirty thousand negroes are engaged in business. They own 64 banks capitalized at $1,600,000. The “Yearbook” says: “No other emanci- pated people have made so great a progress in so short a time. The Rus- sian serfs were emancipated in 1861. Fifty years after it was found that 14,000,000 of them had accumulated about $500,000,000 worth of property, or about $36 per capita, an average of about $200 a family. Fifty years aft- er their emancipation only 30 per cent. of the Russian peasants were able to read and write. After 50 years of freedom the 10,000,000 negroes in the United States have accumulated over $700,000,000 worth of property, or about $70 per capita, which is an ay- erage of $350 per family. After 50 years of freedom 70 per cent. of them haye some education in books.” When such facts as these are considered, it is evident that the negro is making good progress. ‘The harvest season is the most trying of the year. There is so much to be done, so little time to do it in and so few hands to accomplish it, ‘that we are often at our wits’ end. Let us, however, have a care lest we attempt too much and lest we put too great a burden upon the wife and daughter. The sanitariums are filled with men and women who have brok- en down from work and worry at middle life. The utmost that we can hope to gain 1s not worth such a fearful sacrifice. ‘Thomas B. Kalane, a native of At rica and a student of Wilberforce unt- versity, spoke at the colored men's branch of the Y. M. C. A. at Indian. apolis a short time ago on “The Habits and Needs of Africa.” The dor- mitory of the new building is filling a jong felt want as it gives to the young men the opportunity of having good, airy, clean and comfortable rooms. ‘The rooms are filling fast and the com: mittee of management is elated over the success thus far attained. Vigo, Spain, has 43,000 inhabitants, who depend largely on fisheries. Within a radius of ten miles from Paltimore, we are told, there are a good deal more than 100,000 Negroes, the largest number in the same area anywhere with the single exception of Washington. The only northern cities (not counting either this, city or Bal timore as such) haying large Negro populations are New York, with 91, 700, and Philadelphia, with 84,450. ‘The German navy has converted an old torpedo boat into a combined tug- ‘oat and ice breaker for use around Sarlin: The remarkable progress which the Negro race has made in America since its emancipation Is strikingly shown in the fiftieth anniversary edition of the “Negro Year Book.” While the Negro race is known to have achieved many notable things during its period of freedom in America, the tabulated rec- ord shown in the Year Book will prove astonishing, even to the warmest friends of the race. The chronicle of attainment is really staggering when it is realized that this race has been under handicaps which probably have no parallel {n modern history. In 1862 having practically nothing of its own in the United States, with all but an almost negligible portion of the race held in bondage, the Negroes of the country today own hundreds of mil- lions of dollars’ worth of land, securi- ties and other property. Negro farm- ers in the south are cultivating about 42,000,000 acres of ground, of which they own more than half. In the state of North Carolina alone Negro realty holdings are estimated to be worth $29,982,328. The race owns church property valued at $57,000,000, has built or aided in the building of nu- merous educational institutions for its own uplifting and upbuilding, fosters charities and fraternal organizations, has {ts own financial institutions, has produced notable éontributors to art, music and letters and boasts a quota of really great men who compare fa- vorably with those produced by any other race of the same stage of devel- opment in the same period of time. Statistics are offered to show that the ratio of Negro criminals to the Negro population is ape much greater than that of the whifes, while it is less than the proportion among numerous classes of immigrants. Appeal was made to President Wil- son by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People against the agitation looking to the segregation of the Negroes and whites employed in the government depart- ments in Washington. Since the new administration came into power pres- sure has been brought to bear upon the executive and legislative branches of the government to bring about such areform. The appeal to the president declares such an act would be not only a “gross Injustice” to the Negro race, but that it would be also “the most hateful kind of discrimination.” Seg- regation, it is contended in the _peti- tion, not only would limit the chances of the Negro for promotion and ad- | vyancement, but that it would be cited as the excuse for “new racial out rages.” | The corner stone of the eastern ne- gro branch of the Louisville free pub- lic library was laid at Loulsville, Ky., recently. Mayor Head presided dur- ing the ceremony. Many negro minis: ‘ters, principals of the sehools and teachers gathered to express their appreciation. Aside from the program ‘Mayor Head called upon three differ- ‘ent members In the crowd to speak a ‘few words that the audience might ‘know of the gratitude of the negro people for this library. This is to be the second negro branch of the Louis- ‘ville free public library, the first one erected being at Tenth and Chestnut streets. According to an English parliamen ‘tary committee the production of all of ‘London's electric power in a few large ‘stations would save 6,000,000 tons of ‘coal a year and greatly lessen the ‘amoke nuisance! The Maryland court of appeals, in a preliminary opinion, holds “that the mayor and city council of Baltimore may, in the exercise of its police pow: ers, validly pass an ordinance for the segregation of the white and colored races without conflicting with the pro- visions of the Constitution of the Uni. ted’ States or the state of Maryland.” ‘The opinion, however, declares invalid on technical grounds an ordinance ap- proved by the mayor in 1911. An ordi- ance will be drawn up to meet the le gal exactions. Henning Berger, whose play, “The Deluge,” has been taken from Ameri- can production next season, is a Swed- ish dramatist, but for a time lived in Chicago.

F. J. Haskins of North Adams, Mass., has a collection of hand-made nails that were taken from an old house. The nails are all made of steel and are practically as good as when first driven into the wood. They are crude in shape and size and many of them have heads on only one side of the shaft. The nails have been in the building for 40 years. A spring reel that takes up the slack wire of desk telephones is a new convenience for the business man. NEW CODE IS ADOPTED STATE, NAVY AND ARMY TO SPEAK COMMON LANGUAGE. Keys Are Sometimes Lost and Discov- ered in the Possession of Indi- viduals Who Make Effort to Hold Up Uncle Sam, When the United States next goes to war her armed forces and her more | subtle forces of . diplomacy will speak a common ig =~, language for the as first time, for 4 ri Fy there has recently el di Fi} been completed a phe B secret code for Emery common uso be pee! tween the state, SS war and navy de- partments. —— ~ THE Geert tate iat a) | aeiees three departments, which include all the forces that would come in con- tact with an enemy in war time, have used secret codes peculiar to each. The state department has employed several codes, the war department sev- eral others, although chiefly one, the Breeley code, and the navy depart- ment others. They have points in common, but they are nevertheless distinct codes. The key to one would not afford a translation of a message written in another code. The new interdepartmental code is designed not only for use in war but in such emergencies as would require quick secret communication between representatives of the various divi- sions. Code keys have a habit of getting lost. It is to the interest of foreign powers to know the secret language a possible antagonist may speak. Any multiplication of codes increases the opportunities for valuable information of this character to get lost or stolen. For instance, the code now chiefly used by the state department is about four years old and was adopted chiefly because the old code had become the common property of several nations across the water. When George von Lengerke Meyer, formerly ambassador to Russia, and more recently secretary of the navy, was in St. Petersburg, a diplomat visited him one day to offer to him a little book. ‘The book had mysteriously found its way to Bucha- rest and had fallen, as such books have a habit of falling, into the hands of a foreign office. When Mr. Meyer saw the book he at once recognized the state department code key. Some time later a letter came to the American embassy in Berlin stating that the (writer possessed a similar key. He offered to sell it, suggesting that possibly the Unsted States for- eign office would not care to have its secrets the common property of all Europe. The embassy asked the writ- er to submit a specimen page of the book to prove his assertion. The spec- imen was mailed to the embassy and compared. There was no question of its genuineness, But instead of spending good Amer- fean gold to retrieve the yolume, the then ambassador informed the state department that its code was no longer secret. The man who owned the key may have sold copies to every foreign office in Europe. To buy one copy would be no guaranty that the secret was retrieved. So it was discarded and the new one adopted. The code now used is made up of arbitrary combinations of five letters each. Each of these arbi- trary words, which are pronounceable because of the alternation of conso- nants and vowels, denotes another word or phrase. There is just one way of discovering what the code word means and that is to look in the key, the code dictionary. Every department of the govern- ment and even several of the bureaus in various departments have their own secret language. Codes are used for two purposes, secrecy and economy The code is regulated primarily by the requirements of telegraph compa- nies. By international agreement tel- egraph companies send for the same rate as is charged for a single word any pronounceable combination, in any one of eight languages, of five letters by telegraph or ten letters by cable. If the combination is unpronounceable a charge is made for the transmission of each letter. New “Yellow Peril.” There is a yellow peril at the White House, and, from the president down, all the inhabitants thereof are in mortal terror of it, It is a fine young nest of yellow Jackets, with stingers that are no re- specter of persons. The yellow jackets were dislodged from their comfortable home in a huge elm in the White House grounds by the recent storm, and are buzzing all over the place now. No one in au- thority has been stung as yet. In Pesperate Straits. A storm was raging on the deep; and finally an old lady went to the captain and asked him what hope they had “Madam,” he replied solemnly, “we are in the hands of the Lord.” The woman flung up her arms in horror, as she cried: “Mercy on us!

Sam Kirkpatrick of the Sixth Iowa district carries about a ton of lead around underneath his skin—to hear his friends tell it—and, even discount- ing the storfes told about him as much as 90 per cent, he still remaina one of the most picturesque charac: ters of the house of representatives. Sam {s the man—the only man—who did anything in congress toward get: ting the United States to pay for the transportation of the District of Co lumbia veterans who attended the Gettysburg anniversary. Almost all of his lite Sam has been a hunter of moonshiners. That accounts for the lead, and it would almost seem that he has been the favorite target for moonshiners, as he has been shot at so much that he has long since lost count. ‘Thousands of shots must have missed him, but a whole lot of bullets and buckshot did hit him, and he delightfully carries them around with him. His eyes were badly done up in the last raid he led, so Sam 1s now about blind, as a portion of his reward for bajng a revenue officer for the past twenty-seven years.

No one would ac cuse him of being bloodthirsty or of having ever fought a duel. He did once, though. It was when he was attending the famous Heidelberg university in Ger many. A German student challenged John Sharp. “In Rome do as the Romans do,” Mr. Williams counseled himself Therefore he promptly accepted the challenge. Being the challenged person, he had choice of weapons. The German was greatly disturbed when the American’s second said sabers, the usual duelling device, would not be used...

One serious mistake has befallen our people that works disaster to their progress. It is the idea that they cannot or will not work steadily during the warm season, but must lay off, and in many cases actually quit a good job, because it is too hot to work! This one thing has caused as many doors of occupation to be closed against our people as anything else. It is a devilish idea, born of stupidity and fostered by laziness and unworthy of a people who must make every opportunity in the game of life count. The world's business must be carried on in the summer time as well as in the winter and the man or woman who wantonly refuses to work during the hot spell should be denied the privilege when the weather is more favorable. The number of young Negroes sauntering along the streets or hanging about the club doors and poolrooms, exhibiting their Smart Alee clothes and foolish talk, and the young misses (and old ones, too, for that matter) who go parading the thoroughfares and shopping districts, spending their time and money drinking ice cream soda, while calls upon calls for help, and good wages, are offered them. Let us be up and doing. Go to work, stay at work, and let your work show for something tangible. Summer is work time; winter is the time to rest. BUSINESS OPPORTUNITIES Denver offers fine business opportunities along many lines. Our city is young yet and not built up like a great many of the older and larger municipalities. We have opportunity yet of training our people to patronize home industries, but there have been so few enterprises to point our people to that are controlled by members of our own race that they have of necessity turned to the people of other races to make their purchases. This habit when once formed will hold them and when we do open new enterprises it will be hard to sever them from an established custom. Along every line Denver offers inducements such as are seldom seen elsewhere, and now is the time to begin. Most of the colored visitors to our city this summer were inquiring: "Where are the colored business enterprises?" We had few to show them and they seemed surprised that here, in this progressive and intelligent city, we had so little to point to as a result of our experience and push. The opportunity will not always linger; time waits for no man, and once the main chance is gone, it will not return again. If we cannot accomplish these things singly we can by combinations. These are the days when wealth is combined to accomplish things. Why cannot the men and women of Denver get together and do something? The Right Kind of Reading Matter The home news; the doings of the people in this town; the gossip of our own community, that's the first kind of reading matter you want. It is more important, more interesting to you than that given by the paper or magazine from the outside world. It is the first reading matter you should buy. Each issue of this paper gives to you just what you will consider The Right Kind of Reading Matter --- Religion of Own for Growing Youth By Rev. C. W. Gilkey Pastor Hyde Park Baptist Church, Chicago Growing boys should be allowed to have a religion of their own kind and should not be forced to adopt the same sort as their mothers and sisters. A masculine religion good for all week as well as for Sunday is the type to be recommended for the boys. The attempt to furnish boys with "ready-made" religion will fail, and it is to be urged that they be permitted to develop their own individualities in Sunday school and church. This is a period of transition in religion. We are discovering that religion is not ready-made. According to the old idea, a package of religion was handed out to each person and everyone was expected to find the same thing in his package. We see now that religion must be individual. Women's religion will never be the same as men's, and the boy's religion will never be the same as the adult man's. A boy's religion is and should be an individual and unique thing. To demand the same religion of boys as of others is unreasonable. Religion has certain appeals to boyhood. The boy is not interested in the life to come nor in the intellectual aspects of religion. Between the ages of fifteen and eighteen years the boy is more of an idealist than he will ever be again. Then suddenly he becomes conscious of his social ties and the appeal in his case happens to be individual. The boy demands a religion not for Sundays only, but also for the Monday morning lesson in school for the Saturday afternoon basket-ball game and for the meeting of the gang on Saturday night. The first step after the realization that the boy's religion is individual is to place the boys in separate classes under men teachers. Religion has been made attractive to boys through associating it with the boys' interests, as in clubs. The great question now concerns what we have to show for the work of our boys' clubs. That is the question the Boy Scout movement is being asked to meet. Such clubs are really arms reaching out to get the boy, and the boy should see the body behind the arms. We are failing to attach the boy to the church. The club groups should be turned into the midst of the church. The church should do more than develop muscle. It must make the boys allaround Christians. Boys must be shown how to make their religion manifest in hiking and scouting, but the boys' department must certainly be more than a gymnasium class. Let the boys feel that they are helping to run the church and make them see that the church is interested in them. Work up a masculine religion. Make the boys' departments look and feel like going concerns. Plenty of Good Paying Jobs on Farms By S. M. Peters, Agricultural Agent New York The farms are suffering for lack of laborers and it just makes me tired to look at these fellows loafing around the parks of New York when they might be earning good money in the Plenty of Good Paying Jobs on Farms By S. M. Peters, Agricultural Agent New York The farms are suffering for lack of laborers and it just makes me tired to look at these fellows loafing around the parks of New York when they might be earning good money in the country. Most of them are able-bodied men, who will tell you that they have hunted a job until they are worn out in body and in spirit. Maybe they have, but their horizon is bounded by the two rivers about this island and Fourteenth street. Why don't they go on the farms? They wouldn't have to ask twice for work there. No, I don't mean the farms in the west, but the farms near New York. What the farmers want is help to care for their crops, and they are willing and able to pay for it. Many of these fellows loafing here would be glad to get jobs at $2 a day so long as they could stay in the city. Farm labor pays quite as well, if not better than that, besides offering other advantages. Say a man gets $2 a day in the city and works twenty-six days in the month. That makes $52. Out of this he pays car fares, at least, which reduces his income somewhat. Deduct further his house or room rent and his food, and there isn't a whole lot left for clothing and savings, or spendings, whichever he may incline to. It will cost him at least $6 a week, or $26 a month, just to keep himself, leaving him $26 a month for other purposes. Any farmer is willing to pay from $30 to $40 a month for a hand, besides board and lodging. You don't have to be a mathematician to figure out the advantage of working on a farm, financially, over working for $2 a day in the city. But there are other advantages as well. The hired help eats with the farmer and his family, so there is no question about the quality of the food, and everybody knows that it is better than the average table of the laborer in the city. Instead of working in the dust and dirt of the streets or in the confined air of a shop or factory the farm laborer is out in the open all the time, building up his breathing apparatus while his muscles are keeping in good shape. He has plenty of milk, fresh vegetables galore and solid meat for his meals, instead of a cheese sandwich and a glass of beer. There is no stuffiness about the place where he sleeps, either, and he doesn't have to lie on the fire escape on hot nights to get enough air to keep him from suffocating. You are stronger than you know. Only you can't get at your strength to use it as you want to. (No, this isn't an advertisement. It's a brief tale of what you might do but can't.) You Are Stronger Than You Know By E. J. RICE, Milwaukee, Wis. If your body were an electrical machine these are some of the things it could do—that is, if all the heat and the muscular energy expended by an average man were converted into electrical units, it would show that he used up about two and one-half kilowatt hours of electrical energy in the course of a working day. This amount of electricity may not seem great, but when one considers the things that can be done with it the result is a trifle startling. With two and one-half hours of kilowatt electrical energy you could heat an electric flatiron for six hours, or run a sewing machine motor for 100 hours; heat an electric toaster for four hours, run a large fan for thirty-two hours, or warm a chafing dish for six hours and an electric curling iron for 100 hours. All this is accomplished without voluntary effort and merely comes in the course of the day's work and does not represent the energy and endurance of a laboring man. Really it is an astounding revelation of the efficiency of the human machine. Now, when one sees a fat man or an unusually large woman struggling along on a hot day and panting pathetically, he can realize a little all the electrical energy that is being generated and think of the many things to which it might be applied. Though probably if the fat man and the large woman were aware of their ability as electric dynamos they would only wish they could use them to run a huge fan to keep them cool. Come and be Measured.

After an illness of six weeks, Mr. Howard Troutman, one of Denver's pioneer citizens and leading colored contractors passed away early Monday morning. He was born in Paris, Bourbon county, Kentucky, April 1, 1856. In his early manhood he was married to Miss Susie Davenport. In 1880 he started west, settling first in Kansas. In '81 he arrived in Denver and was later joined by his wife and baby. He began work at his trade in partnership with Mr. William Barnett and in a very short while became among Denver's leading contractors. Many of Denver's finest residences are monuments of their ability. He was a member of the Knights of Pythias and at the time of his death was vice chancellor of Progressive Lodge No. 12. Besides his widow, he leaves to mourn his loss, three daughters, Mrs. Harry Barber, Mrs. Morgan Jackson and Miss Geraldine Troutman, and five sons: James, Lynwood, Howard, Elmer and Thomas Troutman. Funeral services will be held Sunday afternoon at two o'clock from Zion Baptist church under the auspices of the Knights of Pythias.

The pastor has been in Pueblo most of the week on official business. At one of the best official board meetings of the conference year last Monday evening, Brother Ed. Johnson was selected to devise ways and means for the collecting of the balance of the salary due the pastor. A request has been sent out by him and the board asking each member to make an effort to bring an extra half dollar Sunday for that purpose. Remember, Dear Member, that the bishop and conference will expect to see your name on the Dollar Money Roll at conference. Don't disappoint them. Bring it tomorrow.

Those Ultra-Sensitive People It is a great misfortune that so many people think it a mark of saintliness to be easily shocked, whereas the greatest saints of all are the people who are never shocked; they may be distressed; they may wish things different; but to be shocked is often nothing but a mark of vanity, a self-conscious desire that others should know how high one's standard, how sensitive one's conscience, is."—"Joyous Gard," by A.

ENT HOME brewing Co. Delivered Anywhere 33 Regulations Prohibit Manufacture of Denatured Alcohol. Farmers Cannot Distill Their Own Spirits Now, Because Product Must Have Strength of Not Less Than 90 Per Cent. Alcohol. Washington,—Did congress play & Joke on the American public when, seven years ago, it enacted a law per- mitting the manufacture, sale and use of tax-free denatured alcohol? ‘This product, which {t was then expected the farmers would be able to make from potatoes, waste grains, fruits or the refuse from various crops, would change the character of country life completely, it was claimed. Glowing accounts Were sent out over the coun- try telling how denatured alcohol would be used to light and heat the farmer's home, cook the meals, fur- nish power to churn the butter, run the farm machinery, pump the water and even take the place of gasoline as a fuel for the motor car. As one man expressed {t several ways ago, the country for a while went “denatured alcohol crazy” at the time the law was passed. Congress put the tax-free denatured alcohol on the statute books, but Americans are doing practically noth- ing to develop the industrial alcohol industry. Why have farmers not ta- ken to the denatured alcohol idea? [Fe o =] ca ‘ neste “ - a \ mere X te se we a ey = cay Le Sac as A number of people have been asking themselves this question for some time, but it has remained for Senator Harry Lane of Oregon to be the first to step up and ask the question out loud, having put his inquiries to ad: ministration officials within the last few days. Secretary. McAdoo, whose department administers the law, is much interested in Senator Lane's plans to uncover the reason or rea- sons for the law not working out sat- isfactorily, and he has requested the Oregonian to furnish him with a brief on the subject. Senator Lane believes that the law and regulations which now govern the making of denatured alcohol are drawn so that {t is practically impos: sible to make the product at a price to compete with gasoline. He wants changes made to benefit the farming interests, The regulation which re: stricts the daily output of an indus: trial alcohol distillery to 100 gallons is the principal trouble maker in the starting of the industry in this coun: try, because it has been demonstrated that no factory can operate econom: jeally on such a small output. Ex: perts in both the agricultural and treasury departments agree that the 100 gallons daily production restric: tion makes the law as it now stands somewhat of a farce. A system of in: spection by government revenue offi cers is prescribed, which is so costly to the distiller that {t becomes impos sible to manufacture industrial alco: hol at a cost even to approach the price of petroleum products. Farmers cannot distill their own denatured alcohol now, because the product must have a strength of no! Jes than ninety per cent. alcohol. Tc manufacture alcohol of such strength a stil costing many thousands of dol lars is required, and department off clals have yet to find a single farmer who has been able to go to such a large expense. Alcohol of fifty tc sixty per cent. strength can be made with a stil costing only a few dollars such as almost any farmer can make In encouraging the building up o' an industrial alcohol industry in this country, Senator Lane and the de partment officials with whom he has ‘talked agree generally that the gov ‘ernment must guard against the mak ing of “moonshine” whisky by un scrupulous distillers, who might be pretending to make denatured alco hol. The Oregonfan thinks that { should be as easy to regulate this matter in the United States as it is Ir Germany, where large amounts of po tatoes and other agricultural product: are turned into denatured alcohol. Agricultural department officials ar¢ much interested {n the establishment of an industrial alcohol industry {r this country. According to Assistant Secretary B. T. Galloway, one of the Breates: uewus of agriculture today is saving for the farmer the money which is lost each year in the waste of surplus or spoiled crops, which would make industrial alcohol. Dur- Ing the past year the price of potatoes was so low in some parts of the coun- try that it was not worth while to dig the crops; and the product was al- lowed to rot in the ground. Besides ‘potatoes, the waste from corn and other grain crops, sugar cane and all kinds of fruits and many other farm products can be used in the manufac: ture of industrial alcohol. The dena- turing process 1s simply the addition of ten per cent. of wood alcohol, which is poison, and one-half of one per cent. of benzine. Approximately one and a half bil- lion gallons of gasoline are used in the country each year and Senator Lane and administration officials do not expect the petroleum products’ in- terests to lend much encouragement to the manufacturers of a compet- ing fuel which 1s produced from an- nual crops of the land. A large Amer- ican company is known to be work- ing on an alcohol engine for automo: biles at the present time, and it 1s thought that the invention will be far in advance of any of the forelgn alco- hol engines, and will perhaps revolu- tlonize the motor industry. Alcohol now costs three or four times as much as gasoline, and it is generally realized that the price must be brought down to compete with the pe- troleum product. This has been ac- complished in Germany, where every- thing possible has been done by the government to encourage the indus trial alcohol industry. The German emperor 1s an industrial alcohol en- thusiast, and a few years before the death of King Edward made a person- al demonstration for the English mon- arch of alcohol lights, stoves and en- gines of the latest German models. For the purpose of profiting by the experience of foreign experts in educa. tion and school Study Euro- organization, the pean Schools, United States bu- reau of education has issued a statement setting forth the advance in modern educational methods in foreign countries, ‘The statement which has been print- ed is intended for free distribution to schools and to other educational in- stitutions. The treatise pays especial attention to the subject of vocational training. The vocational schools in Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Nor- way and other European countries are described and their systems, the bureau declares, “should aid material- ly in solving the yocational problem in the United States.” “Practically every civilized nation is considered to some extent in the bu- reau’s report,” says the announcement, “Among special topies considered are, health work in the schools of Great Britain, schools in Denmark; — the teachers’ syndicate in France, educa- tion for citizenship in Germany; in- struction for emigrants in Italy; Rus- sia’s efforts for rural uplift and the partial adoption in New South Wales of the educational program of the la ‘Hor party: The wealth of gold and silver and paper money filling the vaults of the federal treasury Internal Reve- is due in no small nue Figures. measure to the new record set in drinking, smoking and card playing by the American people during the fiscal year 1913.

There is little intermingling of In. dian and negro blood, more than nine tenths of the half-caste being of white parentage, and only 2,225 were of mixed negro blood. Only 1,793 had all three strains. Oklahoma has the largest Indian population of any state and also the largest percentage of mixed bloods ‘There are many “squaw men” in the state, which have married Indian women to be enrolled as sharers in the tribal estates. Utah, New Mexico, Arizona and Colorado show more than 85 per cent. of full-bloods, an¢ Towa and Mississippi have a large per centage of pure-bloods in the Fox and Choctaw tribes, SENATOR’S WIFE IS MANAGER OF BIG FARM KING GEORGE EDITS THE “COURT CIRCULAR” TWO RIVALS FOR HAND OF ESTHER CLEVELAND Were Mrs. Claude A, Swanson, wife of the former representative and goy- m ernor of the state oS of Virginia, now Ae United States Pl | senator, ever to ae find herself bereft eS of means and — friends she would ae a have no difficulty E a in making an ex- | sw cellent living as a te farm manager. Ce For this position ee she has ably qual oe Sep] fled upon her betes own country es A, wy tate of 650 acres, ' qi SA near Chatham, Va. Ages! To those who \ _ | only know of her (i Sj} social honors and the ‘hosniialite ar: 2 - \ oy MW the gubernatorial mansion during her regime in Richmond, the fact that she manages her farm, personally comes as a decided surprise. In appearance, also, Mrs. Swanson offers a decidedly new version of a farmer. The estate at Chatham was purchased some years ago by Senator Swanson as a country home and Mrs. Swanson very wisely lived in it some time before she made an attempt to remodel, thereby deter- mining through practical experience just the improvements and changes most desirable. When she did con- clude to start alterations she insisted that the architect make his plans in faithful accordance with her sugges- Uons, and as a result she now has a home which is a constant Joy to her and the show place of the surrounding country. ‘The old-fashioned garden with its quaint box borders was left intact and the rose garden with its hundrede of bushes represents the embodiment of one of Mrs. Swanson’s chief hobbies. A view of her roses in spring is con- sidered well worth the trip from Lynchburg, according to some of her friends who make the journey just to view the glory of one tree rose alone. This rose is a grafted variety very popular in England called the “Frau Karl Druscki.” It is paper white with blossoms that expand to the size of saucers. Then, too, there are some- times more than a hundred stalks of Easter lilies in bloom at one time, to The “Court Circular,” is a newspa- per established by Prince Albert, Roy- al Consort of Queen Victoria to be under the di- rect supervision ot the monarch, an official record of the doings of the British court. Lately thero has been some talk of discontinuing the “Circular,” for King George, un: like King Edward, who attached much importance to the publication and was a great stickler for min- ute accuracy,, e6- Wantalicsn thethn le Resa | lagres!

He holds that in these days of up-to-date jour. nalism, it is unnecessary. Queen Victoria took a keen interest in the “Circular” and it was her rule, when her majesty was in residence at Balmoral, to send a special copy to one of the Aberdeen papers every evening. Furthermore, although an official court newsman was responsible for the publication of the “Circular,” the late queen herself’ on special oc: casions contributed to its pages. “Probably the most remarkable “Court Circular” ever sent out was is: sued one Jay in 1883, when John Brown, her majesty’s faithful highland attendant, died. It contained the fol- lowing lines: “An honest, faithful, and devoted follower, a trustworthy, discreet, and straightforward man, possessed of strong sense, he filled a position of great and anxious responsibility, the Herman Stump and H.

Flowers are only a small part of the production of this up-to-date farm, for Mrs. Swanson does nothing half-heart ed or indifferently. Her farm keeps the table the year around. Hach week a box arrives at the senator's city home, the contents of which for qual- ity go ahead of anything the city mar- kets cap provide. Mrs, Swanson raises and cures her own hams, her dairy furnishes her table with dell cious butter and her poultry yard sup- plies chickens and eggs such as are only enjoyed by few in these days of cold storage and refrigerator cars. Fruits and fresh vegetables of every kind in abundance are carefully and scientifically cultivated, for she reads all of the works that bear upon farm management and cultivation. In or- der ot facilitate her correspondence to ther farm people she has recently learned to operate a typewriter, and now all of her letters of instruction are written on this machine, She also keeps a large herd of cattle, and not a single field is plowed or a bit of seed planted except by her orders and under her minute instruction, She has made an exhaustive study of fertili- zers and soll cultivation, and dis- courses upon these subjects as learn edly as any sunburned, horny-handed farmer who has spent a lifetime work- ing in his flelds. Mrs, Swanson puts enthusiasm and energy into everything she under- takes. She enjoys society, delights in travel, enthuses over her new city home, but adores her farm, declaring that {s the only way to live. She asks nothing better for nine months of the year than to be allowed to stay there But wita all her love of country life and quiet she is too entirely devoted to her husband’s welfare and comfort to leave him to the heat and solitude of a summer alone in the city, so the Darby and Joan existence they lead is constantly spent together despite the allurements of the country and the exactions of public duty. Mrs. Swanson is an artist, as the dainty vignettes about her home tes- tify, and also a famous housekeeper of the old-fashioned type, giving per- sonal supervision to every detail of both establishments, ZANG’S NEW BEER Sold In Bottles By J.

To her majesty the loss is irreparable, and the death of this truly faithful and devoted ser- vant has been a grievous shock to the queen.” Nor was this tribute surprising, con- ‘sidering the high regard Queen Vic- toria entertained for the stalwart Highlander, whose fidelity to his du- ties was such as to earn not only the entire confidence, but the real Yriend- ship of the queen. Once her majesty wrote of him: “He was always re- spectful, never servile; always useful, never obtrusive; usually silent, but when he did speak he was blunt and direct.” Nearly every event of state impor- tance is notified in the “Court Circu- lar.” Every time the king receives a prime minister or any officer of state the fact is duly chronicled, gnd in the aerehgary wiesenial inlet cares audience with ambassadors or gover- nors, or where he performs any cere- mony or act, the public is informed of it through the Court Newsman. An interesting event in the history of the “Court Circular” was that which occurred on November 15, 1911, when the whole paper was dispatched by wireless telegraphy. At that time the king and queen were going to at- tend the great coronation Durbar, and the customary account of the court do- ings was transmitted by wireless from Gibraltar, It was a week later that the “Court Circular” described for the first time the king and queen consort of these realms as “their imperial majesties.” This arose, of course, from the fact that it was only when the king-em- peror and the queen-empress reached Aden that the full imperial style and the title could be accorded them as such. 2727 Welton St. Phone Main 6363 The Central Bottling & Distributing Co.

The disposition of both families is to be friendly, al- though it is admitted that each would like to have its favorite “win.” This is the way Mrs. Ewing dis cussed the story: “Thus far I have heard of no en- gagement, but I know that my son and Mr. Stump, his friend, are fond of Miss Cleveland. I shall see Gordon soon, when/Mr. Ewing and myself will go to Biddeford Pool, Me. and we shall know more about these rumors. ‘If he is thinking about marrying, 1 should like to spank him, for he’s only a boy.” Mrs. Stump, not so communicative, said: “It is true that my son has been a guest at a house party given by Miss Cleveland, but he is now at Bass Rocks, Mass., and I have not been told of any engagement concerning him.” According to a story related in Bal timore, Mr, Ewing was a guest of Paul Cleveland at Newport last spring.

Picnics and mass meetings marked Labor Day in many Colorado cities. Five thousand people attended Fort Lupton's "Tomato Day" celebration. Three accidents occurred at Boulder in connection with the Labor Day celebration. Five were hurt. Nearly one hundred members of the Clam and Lobster club enjoyed a clam bake at Hoeckel's ranch near Denver. Mrs. Fletcher Campbell, wife of a ranchman of Hebron, died at her home there as a result of a stroke of apoplexy. Fish and Game Warden J. L. Gray of Fort Collins received 25,000 rainbow trout for the Cache la Poudre river and tributary streams. Suffering from an attack of heart failure due to the high altitude, the Rev. E. L. Jarvis was rushed out of Colorado Springs to Kansas. Mrs. Adelia S. Barnard was arrested a third time at Steamboat Springs on a charge of contempt of court. She was released under $500 bonds. Colorado Methodist Episcopal ministers celebrated the semi-centennial of the Colorado annual conference in a three-day session at Boulder. A possible beer famine in southern Colorado is forecast by the strike of twenty-six men employed by the Pellis Brewing & Ice Company of Trinidad. Leo Mittendorf, 45, committed suicide at his homestead on Deep creek near Steamboat Springs, because he was arrested on complaint of his wife for non-support. Old setters of Morgan county are planning to organize a Pioneers' association here on September 11, which will be Pioneer and Aviation day at the Morgan county fair. Seventy-five cars of peaches from the Palisade and other districts of the Western slope of Colorado are passing through Denver daily en route to Eastern markets. The first locomotive to run on the new extension of the Moffat road to Craig pulled out of Steamboat Springs Sept. 1. It was able to run only a mile on the new tracks just laid. In spite of the fact that she is sixty-five years old, "Grandma" Annie Boal of Kersey started on a trip to England to pay a visit to her son whom she has not seen for twenty-eight years. A party of tourists arrived at Craig from Jacksonville, Fla., coming the entire distance by automobile. They will spend a month or more fishing and hunting before returning South. Joseph Luys, homesteader, residing thirty-five miles southeast of Akron, swore out a warrant for the arrest of Samuel Cawthra, neighbor, charging him with assault with intent to kill. A crusade against slit skirts, diaphanous gowns and other extreme, immodest and suggestive styles in women's dress, has been started by the executive board of the Colorado Mothers' Congress. Organized labor made a splendid showing at Colorado Springs on Labor Day. The turnout was the opening feature. There was a marathon in the afternoon and a big show in the Garden of the Gods at night. Sixty persons were baptized in Rocky Mountain lake, situated in one of Denver's public parks, during the conference of the Seventh Day Adventists of Colorado, which closed after ten days of revival services. Wyoming fish and game officials have taken drastic steps recently to prevent Colorado fishermen from entering that state to fish and return to Colorado with their catch and as a result several Denver men have been arrested and fined. Declaring that labor at last had come into its own with the national government at Washington, Congressman Edward Keating at Pueblo addressed 3,000 people, the occasion being the annual Labor Day picnic of the Trades Assembly. Lewis B. Ames, a Colorado pioneer and for fifteen years a justice of the peace at Littleton, died at his ranch a half mile south of Littleton at the age of eighty-seven years. He had resided in Colorado since June 3, 1860, where he came from Decorah, Iowa, lured by the gold excitement. --- HEAD OF MINT SWORN IN GOVERNORS GO HOME ANNEAR GETS OFFICIAL CHARGE OF $498,000,000. Frank Wheeler Takes Oath as Assayer at Denver Mint—Accountants Busy Checking Gold Bars. Western Newspaper Union News Service. Denver.—Thomas Annear, former state Senator took his oath of office and assumed his duties as superintendent of the United States mint in Denver. Former Superintendent Frank Downer received notification from Washington that his term had officially expired and the keys, with money and bullion, valued at $498,000,000, were officially turned over to Superintendent Annear. Frank Wheeler, appointed assayer of the mint by President Wilson took his oath of office Wheeler, whose home is at Platteville, is a practical assayer. The accountants are busy checking the gold bars which are worth $32,000,000. This work will take several days and after it is completed the $466,000,000 in gold and silver coins will be checked. Bountiful Crops in Moffat County. Craig.—Despite the dry season and dire predictions of crop failure, the quantity of grain harvested in this vicinity up to date is very little short of last year. While neither the dry or irrigated farmers have the bumper crops of last year, there was a greatly increased acreage and more small grain than at any other time in the history of northwestern Colorado. The potato crop is the best in many years and several train loads will be shipped as soon as the Denver & Salt Lake road arrives. Hay will not be as plentiful as last year and it already commands a high price, the stockmen looking for a hard winter. Horse Tramples Women and Children Fowler.—Women and children were trampled under the feet of a frightened horse on the main street of Fowler during the potato race, one of the entertainment features of the Fowler farmers' fair. Three little babies in coaches were tossed out beneath the hoofs of the animal, yet not one of them suffered a scratch. Two women were the only injured, Mrs. Hattie Springer of Pueblo and Mrs. J. H. Johnson, wife of a farmer living near Fowler. The latter was the most seriously injured, being kicked in the right thigh. Mrs. Springer sustained sprained wrists. Police Aid Trinidad Miners. Trinidad—Mayor Dunleavy called upon the chief of police to furnish protection to thirty-five miners reported discharged from the Delaqua mine, seven miles from Ludlow. The men, who say they were driven from the camp at the point of guns and herded for five hours in Ludlow station, took refuge in the miners' headquarters, which was immediately surrounded by Baldwin-Felts detectives. Train Hits Skunk. Palisade.—A collision between Rio Grande passenger No. 1 and a polecat, just west of here, almost tied up the entire railroad system. The train stopped. When the skunk was discovered there was little left of him to be seen—windows were shut, tight and the throttle was thrown wide open. Four Generations at Birthday Party. Rocky Ford.—Capt. Samuel Robinson, eight-seven years old, and Mrs. Samuel Robinson, eighty-four years old, celebrated Robinson's birthday. Four generations were represented, including eight children, two grandchildren and four great-grandchildren. Fatally Hurt in Mad Auto Ride. Pueblo.—Emil Pierson, a steel works employe, was fatally injured when a big touring car in which he was riding at the rate of a mile a minute crashed through the Pine street bridge over the Bessomer ditch, a big irrigating canal. Greeleyite Grows Pineapple as Joke. Greeley.—City Clerk W. A. Hotchkiss feasted on a home-grown pineapple which he raised in his front yard. He tried pineapple raising merely as a joke and was surprised when he finally got results. Cuts Throat With Razor. Pitkin. After telling his family and friends that his melancholy disposition was the worst enemy that he had, Albert Brown went to his home here and cut his throat and the arteries of both wrists with a razor. Risked Life to Save Twin Babies. Pierce—Risking his life in a fire which destroyed a small house occupied by Manuel Pergilo, beet tender, Benton Marsh saved the twin daughters of the family, who were asleep in the upper part of the structure. Joking About Indians: Kills Self. Soking About Indians, Kris Self. Longmont—William Brophy, thirty-four years old, for seven years an employe of the sugar factory here, was shot and instantly killed while he was demonstrating to his cousin, William Cavanaugh, who three hours before had arrived from Ireland, how to protect himself from the "wild Indians of Colorado." The shooting, in the opinion of Sheriff S. D. Buster, Deputy District Attorney Marting and Coroner Kelson of Boulder was entirely accidental and no one is under arrest. DECLARE THAT DENVER IS PROPER CENTER OF WEST. The "City Is the Best Place for an Army Post," Says Governor McGovern, of Wisconsin. Denver.—Governors of many states who were in attendance on the governors' conference at Colorado Springs and later were entertained in Denver, departed for their homes, and each state head had nothing but praise for Colorado and Denver. Governors W. H. Mann of Virginia, W. T. Haines of Maine, O. B. Colquitt of Texas, Francis E. McGovern of Wisconsin and Emmet O'Neal of Alabama, were among the last of the executives to depart from Denver. And each governor said that next to his own state he would rather live in Colorado than any other. "Denver is one of the most progressive cities I have ever visited," declared Governor McGovern. He found no one who would dispute him as he looked about the lobby of the hotel, so he refused to argue the matter. "It is so placed," he continued, "that it cannot help but grow steadily as long as this world turns around as it has a habit of doing. One thing which I would like to see Denver have is a large army post at Fort Logan. And I cannot see how the Department of War can do otherwise than tend to this matter in the right way. "Denver is the logical geographical, climatic and commercial center of the west, and it should be given great military support. War or no war, a city such as this gains a great deal by having a military significance and the government could find no better spot in the west in which to place an extensive headquarters than here. And I think that it would be a matter of economy, too, to place soldiers here for provisions are very reasonable all over Colorado. "Yes, sah," said Governor Mann of Virginia, "this is a city that you all have built. It reminds me of the cities of the south, it is so comfortable to look upon and its people are so hospitable. All the governors are pleased with their cordial welcome both here and at Colorado Springs." Governor Ammons had but one setback in the entertainment of the governors. He threatened at the beginning of the conference to marry Governor McGovern to a Colorado girl. Governor McGovern is known among his fellow executives as the "bachelor governor," but he left this state still a bachelor. Inheritance Tax Will Pay Appropriations. Denver.—"We will collect enough money in inheritance tax to pay all the appropriations made by the last General Assembly." This is the prediction made by Lester Hubbard, chief inheritance tax appraiser, who returned from a trip through southern Colorado. "Information that we have leads us to believe that the tax on the estate of John A. Thatchier, the Pueblo banker, will be between $200,000 and $400,000," said Hubbard. "It is the general opinion of those acquainted with the condition of the estate that it will inventory at least $6,000,000. Papers of administration will be taken out in a few weeks." On his trip Hubbard compromised a dispute between the state department and the executors of the estate of George Swink, the Rocky Ford former state senator and prominent irrigation promoter, who died September 24, 1910. Under the agreement the estate will pay a tax of $5,015.97 and about $500 interest. The dispute was caused by the fact that the bulk of the estate consisted of stock in a partially completed irrigation district. The executors, who were ordered in the will to complete the project, at first asserted that no inheritance tax could be collected. After two years of dispute they have agreed to a $200,000 assessment of the estate. Must Pay $3,000 for Timber. Denver.—Lumber worth $3,000 has been cut without permission from the state lands in Routt county by Elmer Garner, who was allowed a low rate to cut timber from a quarter section there, according to a report of a deputy of Attorney General Fred Farrar. An investigation showed that the man had 300,000 feet of coal props and 15,000 ties on hand. The lumber was seized by timber wardens. Garner was given a short period in which to pay the state $3,000, which he agreed to do. Must Have License to Fish. Denver.—Frank Bouck, first assistant attorney general, upholds the opinion of Fish Commissioner Shinn that owners of private lakes and ponds must obtain a license before they can fish on their own property. Land Corporations Asked to Report. Denver.—Land corporations of the state, operating under the Carey act, have been asked by Register Volney Hoggatt of the state land board to give immediate information regarding the work they have been doing. The answers to the letters sent out by Register Hoggatt are expected to be in his office by Nov. 1. Some of the questions asked are: "How many miles of ditch have been constructed?" "What is the number of persons that have filed on your land?" CARLSON'S Peerless Ice Cream Phones: Main 112 and Main 5787 DID YOU EVER TRY Neef Bros.' Beer? It's made right, and tastes right.

JOHN ENGSTROM Denver, Colorado J FOR those who wish to observe a period of mourning and are confronted by objections to all-black apparel, or find it not practical for daily wear there is now the alternative of all-white or white and black in combination. In the smartest shops and at the leading costumers one may order mourning in either black or white. Crepe, which is the recognized insignia of mourning, has been used with wonderful effectiveness, especially in millinery. Black crape hats and veils, for first mourning, have been duplicated exactly in white crape. This is an exquisite fabric and since the designers began using it they have achieved some new and wonderfully beautiful effects not possible in other materials. It is not merely a whim of fashion that has brought about the adoption of the new "white mourning." It is a change of sentiment with regard to the meaning of mourning apparel. One need not think very long to conclude that white mourning is meeting a demand for something more than merely "the trappings and the suits of woe." It is less oppressive than black; in fact it is not at all somber. Those who are in mourning will not be obliged in the future to confine themselves to black or to white on even to combinations of these; for mourning fabrics are woven in gray and in certain lavender shades. But crape is most effective in black or white. Tailored suits of white serge made up with exquisite neatness and faultlessly cut are favorites for mourning. Worn with either black or white hats and vells they cannot be excelled for elegance. A fad of the hour is to Simple Methods, Persevered In, Will Speedily Do Away With Objectionable Feature. One of the most objectionable features is the double chin. This can be remedied in one month by the following exercise: First soap the under part of the chin with pure soap, and plenty of it. Then throw the head back till the face looks up to the ceiling. Then press firmly the under chin with the thumbs while at the same time make the lower chin move back and forth against the thumbs. It will take some practice, but you will soon find the way to cause the movement of the fat part of the chin. This will strengthen all the muscles and at the same time it will eliminate the fatty cells. The soap aids in this by cutting the fat from the skin. The exercise can be endured and even enjoyed if you have a graphophone and take the exercise by the music. I set my graphophone out in the rear garden and take my physical culture out in the open air. Besides the exercises I had in the college classes I have discovered many new ones. Wherever there is excess fat just keep on till you find a motion that will cause a movement of that fat, then work—Health. Red-Heeled Slippers. It was only natural that the incoming of effective little frocks should have brought with them the high-heeled slippers of the Louis XVI. period, with their immense buckles in front and their slashes of red behind. There is a new kind of heel, too, which is used on these black slippers, and it makes the foot look about three inches shorter than it is. One would say that it was impossible to walk in them if one had not witnessed the ability of women to get along in yard-wide skirts and Spanish heels that put them on stilts. We have learned during the last three years that there are few limitations to what women can do in the name of fashion; if ever these Louis heels are adopted by the majority of American shoemakers, women will wear them, and not only turkey trot in them, which is all very well, but they will go shopping in them, which is all very wrong. For cleaning white kid shoes, get a clean white cloth, soak it in gasoline, then dip the cloth in powdered prepared chalk. Rub until all dirt is removed, then allow shoes to dry in the air, but not in the sun. Always use the chalk and gasoline together, as gasoline alone will in time cause the kid to turn yellow. Do this in a cool place away from heat or artificial light and not in the hot sun. wear black low shoes with white hose or high white shoes with their tailored gowns. For white mourning veils all made of chiffon or Brussels net or other velling materials bordered with crape. These bordered veils are often draped on the hats in such a way as to provide their only trimming. They are nearly always thrown back off the face or draped to hang from the back of the shape which is almost invariably made entirely of crape. One of the new, elongated shapes, with medium wide rolling brim, is shown here covered and trimmed with white crape. The veil of chiffon, bordered with crape, is arranged to be worn either over or off the face. There are almost no trimmings on the most elegant mourning hats except those that are made of crape. Roses and lilies are favorites and are wonderfully beautiful. A new shape suggesting a poke bonnet is pictured here, made of black crape except for the facing, which is pure white in a rich soft quality of the material. This white facing redeems the hat from somberness and makes it a brilliant piece of millinery. Besides, white next the face is most becoming to every woman. The coarse-meshed silk nets, bordered with bands of crape three inches wide, are having a strong vogue and are in the majority among fashionable veils. Nevertheless they are less becoming than chiffon. But veils are so seldom worn over the face that this item may be ignored. Nets are very strong and durable. JULIA BOTTOMLEY. ATTRACTIVE STREET GOWN Underwear Underwear Model of cream-colored brocaded satin with tunic of lace and silk trimmed with crimine and black tulle. Back to Japan. Chinese fashions, especially the mandarin lines, proved unbecoming, in that they departed from the figure's general beauty of lines. But designers have stayed in the orient, merely moving across the strip of water and centering their thoughts on Japan. The clinging draperies, the wide belt with its butterfly bows and its draped and hanging panels, and the kimono line for bodices and wraps are to be used this fall. Wonderful colorings and embroideries that hint of the east will be the safe choice for the woman who would buy now for a coming successful season in dress. To Dye Faded Slippers Old satin slippers may be successfully dyed. Light shades take the new color best. Blues and greens take splendidly on an old foundation of pink, yellow, light blue or lavender.
