PATRONIZE MERCHANTS WHO ADV.IN THE PEOPLE'S PAPER THE COLORADO STATESMAN THE JOURNAL OF THE WEST. LABOR SHALL BE FREE RAGE COUNTRY PARTY Seventeenth Biennial Session of Supreme Lodge K. of P. Virginia Knights Lose Their Fight Supreme Chancellor Is Upheld in Suspending Virginia Grand Lodge. VOL. XX. Seventeenth Session of Lodge Virginia Knights I Supreme Chan Suspending Virg Baltimore, Md., September 3. After a most eventful meeting, the seventeenth biennial session of the Supreme Lodge of Knights of Pythias and the fifteenth biennial session of the Supreme Court of Calanthe came to a close Saturday night. The next session will be held at Columbus, O. The session adjourned after a whole day had been spent in adopting and rejecting proposed changes in the constitution. Among the amendments adopted was one prohibiting past chancellors, not delegates, from voting in grand lodge sessions. The delegates voted to sustain the action of Supreme Chancellor S. W. Green in suspending the Virginia Grand Lodge and order its dissolution. The Grand Lodge of that State was suspended some time ago, following its refusal to pay certain taxes charging extravagance on the part of the management of the Supreme Lodge. The charges were made by John Mitchell, Jr., grand chancellor for Virginia. Mr. Mitchell and his delegation appeared here, but were denied admission, their case being referred to the committee on credentials. The Virginia delegation, it is said, tendered $2,500 as full payment for all taxes due, but this was refused, as the Supreme Lodge officials claimed that $3,000 was due. Mitchell filed notice with Supreme Chancellor Green Saturday afternoon that a writ restraining the Supreme Lodge from continuing the suspension and dissolving his jurisdiction would be filed in the United States Court at Richmond on September 25. There were two rival sets of delegates claiming admission from Oklahoma. One was headed by Dr. A. H. Tyson and the other by W. H. Harrison. The latter was seated. C. K. Robinson, of St. Louis, attacked the administration in his biennial report as keeper of records and seal. He lost his position after serving eighteen success- ive years. In recognition of meritorious service the Supreme Lodge conferred on him the honor of Past Supreme Chancellor. Dr. E. E. Underwood, of Frankford, Ky., was unanimously elected to succeed him. Dr. Underwood is a native of Ohio, but, has been practicing medicine in Kentucky for the past twenty-two years. He is prominent in political and fraternal circles in his State. George A. Watty, grand chancellor for Maryland, was rewarded for his efforts in entertaining the session with election to the position of supreme master at arms. J. Rupert Jefferson of West Virginia entered the race for supreme chancellor, but was easily defeated by S. W. Green, who has held the position since 1908. The remaining officers are: J. L. Mitchell, Austin, Texas, supreme lecturer; the Rev. A. H. Newton, Camden, N. J., supreme prelate; John H. Young, Pine Bluff, Ark., supreme master of exchecquer; Joseph L. Jones, Cincinnati, supreme vice chancellor; A. T. Watkins, Chicago, supreme attorney; J. A. Lattie, Winston-Salem, N. C., supreme inner guard; John W. Harris, Jacksonville, Fla., supreme outer guard; R. R. Jackson, Chicago, major general of the uniform department, and Dr. J. L. Ward, Indianapolis, supreme medical examiner. The officers of the Supreme Court of Calanthe follow; Joseph L. Jones, Cincinnati, supreme worthy councilor; Mrs. R. Barnes, Louisiana, supreme instructor; Mrs. Jessie D. Robinson, Missouri, inspectrix; Mrs. J. M. Hazelwood, West Virginia, supreme orator; Mrs. C. A. Curl, Illinois, supreme Register of Deeds; Mrs. A. D. Key, supreme receiver of dosops; Mrs. F. M. Crosby, Alabama, supreme escort; Mrs. Cora M Allen, Louisiana, supreme directress; Mrs. L. B. Reid, Florida, supreme directess; Mrs. Anu J. Wallace, Mississippi, supreme conductress; Mrs. Bertha Reid, Indiana, supreme herald; John S. Fielding, Ohio, supreme protector, and Dr. A. N. Prince, Texas, supreme medical director. DENVER COLORADO SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 13 1913. State Hist & Nat Hist Bioceng State House GIANTS WHO RADO THE JOURNAL DENVER COLORADO OFFER FOR LYNCHERS Charlotte, N. C., Sept. 2.—The Charlotte authorities are so incensed over the lynching of Joe McNeely, who was shot to death by a mob last week, that $35,000 in reward has been offered for the arrest and conviction of the lynchrrs. Thirty-five white ruffians are said to have participated in the lynching bee, and a reward of $1,000 cach has been offered. North Carolina to-day hangs her head in shame because of the lynching of McNeely. It has been eight years since such a crime was committed in this State, and the Negro and white citizens have pointed to the good feeling existing between the two races. McNeely was lynched for shooting Police Officer Wilson. McNeely was said to have been intoxicated and was on the street discharging a revolver. Police Officer Wilson, who was riding on a motorcycle, was shot by McNeely who was in turn shot by the police officer. Both were taken to the hospital. The mob took the intoxicated man from the hospital and lynched him. The leading papers of the State speak out against the dastardly work of the lynchers. The Greensboro Daily News comments as follows: "North Carolina was beginning to establish a creditable record as to lynchings, and that of Mecklenburg County was unsullied. The Charlotte Observer, voicing a community pride in this, the other day felt justified in the prediction that there never would be a lynching in Mecklenburg. Now that community shelters a mob of the blood thirsty. Mecklenburg has been shamed and has shamed North Carolina. While that deed was being committed many people in North Carolina were reading the charge of a judge in a capital case in a sister State. He defined murder. Murder is the unlawful killing of a human being, in the peace of a State, by a person of sound memory and destruction, with malice aforethought expressed or implied. Malice he defined as that deliberate intention unlawfully to take away the life of a fellow creature, which is manifested by external circumstances, capable of proof. "You cannot explain a lynching to Christian civilization—to enlighten humanity—except in the immediate vicinity. You cannot explain a lynching to enlightened conscience. Lynchers defy civilization. They strike at that where on its whole fabric is dependent. Their example tends to anarchy." The committee is making great preparations for the fourth annual fall entertainment to be given by Centennial Lodge No. 4, F. & A. M., at Eureka hall, Thursday, September 18, 1913. If you miss this entertainment you will miss a great treat. ELECTION FOR GRAND EXALTED RULER CLOSE Atlantic City, Sept. 2.—The fourteenth annual convention of the Independent Benovelent Order of Elks of the World, held last week in this city, will go down in history as the most harmonious and largest ever held in the history of the order. The contest for Grand Exalted Ruler was close, very close, T. G. Nutter of Charleston, W. Va., defeating Armond W. Scott of Washington, D. C., by five votes. Counselor Nutter received ninety votes to Counselor Scott's eighty-five. Not until all the votes had been counted was the successful candidate for the position of Grand Exalted Ruler known. Some of the Elks who showed more than ordinary interest in the outcome almost became victims of heart failure. George E. Bates of Jersey City was re-elected Grand Treasurer, and James T. Carter of Richmond, Va., was chosen Grand Secretary. At the session it was decided to fight to the finish the white Elks who do not want the colored order to use the name "Elks." To allow the order to carry on its fight in the courts $2,000 was appropriated. It was made public at the convention that Supreme Court Justice Hughes recently decided against the colored Elks in their suit with the white Elks of the State of New York, the court holding that no Federal question was involved. To Fight Ohio Decision All attention is to be concentrated in the future on the case recently decided against them in Ohio by the lower court. Constitutional lawyers have been secured who are confident that if the suit is taken to the United States Supreme Court there will be several constitutional issues involved. Thursday, August 28, was a gala day at Atlantic City. Thursday afternoon the Elks' parade was held, and the local daily papers proclaimed it to be the most impressive parade ever held in Atlantic City. The band of the O. V. Cato Lodge, No. 20, Philadelphia, was awarded the prize for being the best musical organization in the order, and the O. V. Cato Lodge was awarded the prize for having the largest number in attendance. The Keystone Lodge, No. 6, of Washington, Pa., was awarded the prize for coming the longest distance, and the Iron City Lodge, No 17, of Pittsburgh, won the prize for being the best uniformed Lodge. Nearly five thousand persons attended the ball Thursday evening given at Young's Million Dollar Pier. The scene was a brilliant one and the daily papers spoke enthusiastically of the deportment of those present. During the evening Harry H. Pace, the retiring exalted ruler, and Grand Secretary Bates were presented with loving cups. The next convention will be held at Norfolk, Va. RACE NEWS London, Sept. 4. — Jack Johnson the pugilist, was injured today when a taxicab collided with his motor car. Johnson was riding through the fashionable West End. He was thrown over the forward seat. Johnson called in a doctor to treat a sprained tendon. He said that the damage to his automobile was $1,000. "They would have me in the penitentiary by this time if this accident had occurred in the United States," exclaimed Johnson bitterly. Atlanta, Ga., Sept. 1.—For the first time in the history of the State prison commission, a large number of well known white women have recommended executive clemency for a Negro charged with an offense against a white woman. Lige Lane was convicted in Clinch county for assault. He was sentenced to hang, and unless the governor interferes, will be executed on September 10 A letter written by the Negro's victim, which also requested clemency, was submitted. Richmond, Texas, Sept. 7. Eight Negro convicts confined in the "dark cell" of Camp No. 3 on the state farm at Harlem, near here, were suffocated last night and four others are seriously ill from the effects of breathing foul air resulting from poor ventilation. Negligence homicide formally was charged against Sergeant Wheeler and two guards following a coroner's investigation. The men gave bond. The "dark cell" has been used as a means of discipline since whipping was abolished. The cell is about 10 feet long, seven feet wide and seven feet high. Ventilation is supplied by 10 air boles, each one inch in diameter. Philadelphia, Pa, Sept. 3.—The thirteenth biennial session of the Supreme Lodge of Knights of Pythias and the session of Supreme Court of Calanthe, for the Eastern and Western Hemispheres was held at Masonic Temple, 1227 Locust street. The session opened with biennial sermon by the Key. W. S. Carpenter at Allen A. M. E. Church Sunday night. The address of the Supreme Chancellor, W. Ashbie Hawkins of Baltimore, was a general review of the work of the order during the past two years. Supreme Keeper of Records and Seal W. E Grandison, Supreme Master of Exchequer W. A. Heathman and other officials made their biennial reports. The Supreme Court of Calanthe, according to reports, is in a flourishing condition. NO 2 New York, Sept. 7.—Announcement was made tonight that a fight for the world's heavyweight championship between Jack Johnson and Frank Moran of Pittsburg, who last week defeated Al Palzer in this city, was arranged today. It will take place in the Veledrome d'Hiver, Paris, France, in December. Negotiations between Johnson's manager, Leon See and Dan McKettrick, who has Moran's interests in hand, had been going on for some time and today had been accepted. McKettrick had asked for a guarantee of $5,000, the privilege of 30 per cent of the gate receipts and expenses incurred in going to Paris and training Moran. The exact date of the bout has not yet been arranged. NEWS FROM ESTES PARK. (By Our Special Correspondent.) An electric storm and cloud burst came down suddenly on the evening of the 7th, inst., at 6:30 no lives were reported lost but heavy damages were done to property and the roads in general. Old residents assert that this storm is unprecedented. The road from Lyons and Longmont were out of service, and communication had to be carried on by the Loveland route. A large force of workmen are rapidly restoring the road to traffic. Climate is still ideal and health and pleasure seekers are still visiting. Guests of the Hotel Stanley were given quite a treat by the management on Friday evening a week ago, when the services of Mr. Mills were engaged to give a lecture on the wonderful natural features of Estes Park, also the work of the Beaver (which he makes a specialty). The lecturer was listened to with rapt attention, and was congratulated by his audience for the valuable information that he gave relative to the various mountain peaks, etc., which seem to form the boundaries of the Park. At the close of the lecture a male quartette (colored) under the direction of Hewetson-Watson of Denver, further entertained the guests, who commended them highly for their rendition of a vocal and instrumental program. On Saturday, the 6th inst. by request of the management of the Stanley hotel, V. P. Hewetson-Watson of Denver specially entertained the guests in the spacious parlor with an instrumental program. The piano used was a Steinway large grand, and the performer feeling at home with an instrument that responded to his touch and technique brought out the quality of tone to the delight of the listeners. Many commendations from the guests were offered the entertainer who also came in for special comment from some Denverites who were present Viz: Dr. Lemmen and party, Senator and Mrs. Burger and others.

KIDNAPED BY CANADIAN IMMI- GRATION OFFICIALS AND RUSHED OVER BORDER. SLAYER IS A PRISONER IN NEW HAMPSHIRE BARROOM UN- DER HEAVY GUARD. Western Newspaper Union News Service. Colebrook, N. H.—Harry Kendall Thaw, fugitive, slept last night on New Hampshire soil, barricaded in a barroom of a hotel here after one of the most exciting days in his career. Thrust unexpectedly over the Cana- dian border early Wednesday, despite the writ of habeas corpus demanding his production before the King’s bench in Montreal next Monday, he was a free man for three hours, and during that time drove madly in an au- tomobile for fifty miles through the hills of Vermont and New Hampshire. Near noon he ran into the arms ot a New Hampshire sheriff and was brought to Colebrook, where he re- tained counsel to resist extradition. William ‘travers Jerome, rushing hither on a special train, will assume charge of the case for New York state, seeking to have Thaw, as a ward of the state, returned to Mattea- wan. Meantime Thaw is “detained” charged with no crime, held on no war- rant. Fearing kidnaping at the hands or officers from New York he asked for a special guard and Chief of Police Kelly swore in twelve special depu- ties, all armed. They patrolled the streets about Thaw’s hotel. As a matter of form Thaw was ar- rested in his rooms on a complaint sworn to before Justice Morschauer in Duchess county, New York, who has issued a blanket warrant, charging Thaw and those who assisted him to escape from Matteawan with conspir- ‘acy. Heart Failure Strikes Down Famous New York Executive While Crossing Atlantic for Rest.

Kanses Backes pik: Glenwood Springs.—C. C. Sawyer. retired banker of Sedgwick, Kan., dropped dead of heart trouble In a rooming house here, AFRO-AMERICAN CULLINGS Some 60 years ago, Frederick Law Olmsted, who later became our greatest landscape architect, made several memorable visits to the south. The books of travel he then wrote are prized by historians as on the whole the best material we have concerning the economic condition of the south while slavery endured. A dozen years ago another traveler, with Olmsted's books in his bag, toured the entire south with much the same general inquiry in his mind. He wanted to learn how much the labor system of the south had improved. He came back rather discouraged about the Negroes, but rather enthusiastic about the growing disposition of the South to use more and more white labor, both native and foreign. Perhaps his judgment was somewhat influenced by the feeling of the southerners round him, and particularly by their eagerness to attract immigration. At that time this eagerness was not only very great, but rather undiscriminating. Apparently, the south wanted all the white men it could get, from whatever quarter. Today there are signs that the attitude of the south on this important matter has somewhat changed. The desire for immigrants from the north is, indeed, still undiminished. There is also a hearty welcome for European immigrants of races known to be readily assimilable by the southern native stocks—which are mainly English, Scotch and Scotch-Irish, with a smaller admixture of French and German. But the south does not seem so keen as it was for all sorts of immigrants. So much may perhaps be inferred from the recent course of southerners in congress, particularly Representative Burnett of Alabama. Perhaps the best explanation is that the south, although it has received few immigrants, has been prospering mightily during the last decade. Undoubtedly, too, the troubles of the north with foreign labor have made an impression on thoughtful southerners. Perhaps we can hope, also, that the Negroes themselves have helped a little to make southerners more content with things as they are—although probably that is not the view of most southern white people. The Negroes themselves seem to be agreeing more and more with Booker Washington that the south offers them their best industrial opportunity. In that opinion Principal Washington finds himself strengthened by a close study of the poorest classes in Europe, whose condition he is constantly comparing with that of the Negroes in the south. He declares, for example, that "the condition of the colored farmer, even in the most backward parts of the southern states in America, is incomparably better than the condition and opportunities of the agricultural population in Sicily." He has reached the same conclusion about other parts of Europe. For that and for other reasons he would not welcome a great miscellaneous immigration into the south. No doubt in that he truly represents the mass of his people. No such unanimity on the subject can, however, be attributed to southern white people. Many complain that their labor-supply is both scant and inefficient, and many desire more settlers in order to hasten the development of the country. But it does seem true that concerning these great matters both the white and the black south are today in a happier and more hopeful mood than at any other time since the war. Youth's Companion. The last battle in which a British sovereign personally led his troops on the battlefield was in 1742 when George II, at the head of his army, defeated the French at the battle of Dettingen. 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 negro is crowding into the large cities, to the detriment of his material advancement 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. The coal production of the Transvaal for 1912 showed an increase over the previous year, the figures being 4,751,850 tons, valued at $5,085,424, compared with 4,343,680 tons, of $4,966,453 value in 1911. Many worked-out coal mines in Pennsylvania are being filled in with sand and other waste material to prevent their surfaces caving and damaging valuable property. Any individual rejoicing in the name of Mr. Earwig may be proud in the fact that originally the name meant the "boar of battle." According to the Canadian Forestry association 50 per cent of Canada is capable of growing nothing but timber crops. First and foremost, I call the attention of the race through this league to the fact that there are at least 200,000,444 acres of unused and unoccupied land in the southern states. This means a territory as large as Australia, France, Germany, Italy and Spain. I am glad to say that we already own and occupy 20,000,000 acres, but this is only about two acres for each individual. All this means one thing: That the time has come when this business league and other organizations should send forth a voice which can be heard everywhere and can not be misunderstood, for a larger proportion of our race to leave the towns and cities and plant themselves in the country districts on the soil before it is too late. Verily it is true that here in the United States the words of the prophet of old are fulfilled, when he said there was a land awaiting the occupation of the people, that was "flowing with milk and honey." In our case as a race, the milk will come from our own Jersey cows and the honey from our own well kept bees. Forward to the land! should be our motto everywhere. Instead of owning 20,000,000 acres, we should within the next quarter of a century own 40,000,000 acres. To the man or the race who owns the soil all good things come in time. Let us leave the fleeting and often deceive easy life of the cities and get on God's green earth. I want to see members of my race that are now in too large numbers flocking to the cities, join the great world movement "back to the land," or better still, "forward to the land."—Booker Washington. Such institutions as those at Tuskegee, Hampton and Prairie View are sending out thousands of young men and women imbued with good purposes and well equipped to render incalculable service to the negro people. These men and women live wholesome lives and set wholesome examples that are bringing year by year a heavy fruitage in the way of enlightenment and encouragement. As vast as is the problem here in the south, and as tremendous the mass to be won to honesty, virtue, self-reliance and thrift, there is no reason for discouragement anywhere. Everywhere throughout the south there can be seen among the whites a constantly growing sympathy for and interest in the negro population, and that sympathy and encouragement are accomplishing great things. We can see from the progress of the present how much better the future is going to be, and we have every reason to hope that the problem will be divested of its complexities as intelligence is disseminated among the negroes and as the white people more fully realize that their own welfare depends upon making the negro a more intelligent and useful factor in our economic life. We believe the lynching record will continue to diminish until this blot will be forever eradicated. The negro himself can help the good work along by abstaining from all forms of lawlessness and by ceasing to give shelter to those who commit crimes. A healthy public sentiment will accomplish the rest.—Houston (Texas.) Post. The cotton industry of Italy has 4,575,000 spindles and 134,380 power looms, 48 per cent. in Lombardy, 24 per cent. in Piedmont and the remainder in Venetia, Liguria, and, in lesser degree, in central and southern Italy.

Agricultural Counties Show Marked Increase and Mining Counties a Decided Decrease. Western Newspaper Union News Service. Denver.—The assessed valuation of the state for 1913 is approximately $1,130,342,101, according to figures completed by the state tax commission, compared with a valuation of $422,330,159 in 1912 on a one-third basis. Six counties have failed to make their returns for the year. The following is a comparative table showing the assessed valuations by counties for the past two years: Forty Coloradoans Have $100,000 Incomes. Denver.—There are, in the district of Colorado, which includes this state and Wyoming, 23,000 persons whose incomes will range from $3,000 to $20,000; and 400 whose incomes are between $20,000 and $50,000; and 100 incomes between $50,000 and $100,000. This is the estimate of the Denver internal revenue office, in data forwarded to Washington for use of Congress in its consideration of the annual income tax law. Only forty persons are estimated to have an annual income in excess of $100,000. These figures are based on a population of 800,000 in Colorado and 160,000 in Wyoming. In connection with the estimate of taxable incomes in this district, it is explained by the collector that many who will be required to make returns, may, through exemptions, not be required to pay the tax. Employers of Child Labor Warned. Denver.—Nearly 300 Denver school children, according to Richard Croskey, deputy state labor commissioner, are employed in Denver stores and factories in violation of the school permit law, and it is asserted that wholesale prosecutions will follow if employers fail to conform with the statute. The law requires that all school children under sixteen must have permits to work during the school year. Delegates to Road Congress Named. Denver.—Colorado will be represented at the third American road congress to be held at Detroit, Mich. Sept. 29-Oct. 4. The following have been appointed delegates by Governor Ammons: District No. 1, E E. Sommers, E. J. Yetter, F. L. Bartlett, D. W. Brunton, J. M. Kuykendall, Ralph W. Smith, Charles A. Johnson, all of Denver. District N. 2—Dr. William P. Harlow, Boulder; E. C. Van Diest, L. E. Curtis, Colorado Springs; C. W. Bowles, Littleton; C. Strong, Englewood; F. Dye, Julesburg; S. M. Edgell, Greeley. District No. 3—Father McCabe, Idaho Springs, Colo.; R. Higgins, Pueblo; C. R. McLain, Canon City; F. J. Reford, Trinidad. District No. 4—H. C. Bartlett, Gunison; Dr. A. J. O. Lof, Aspen; A. Garvin, Glenwood Springs; W. Montgomery, Meeker; Charles E. Herr, Durango. Denver.—That the proposed increase in the assessed valuation of state properties should not increase taxation is the opinion of Governor Ammons and C. P. Link of the state tax commission. The State Tax Board is preparing figures to show that $100,000,000 should be added to Denver's assessed property valuation, claiming that Commissioner of Finance Pitcher fixed the assessed valuation of the city at too low a figure when he certified rolls containing $301,000,000 worth of property at full cash valuation. Do You Know That— PRODUCTION IN 1912 $5,000,000 GREATER THAN IN 1911. Large Increase Shown In Zinc, Lead and Silver Output, But Decrease- in Copper and Gold. Western Newspaper Union News Service. Washington.-The gross value of Colorado's output of gold, silver, copper, lead, and zinc recovered from placers, from gold-silver bullion, and from ore sold or treated in 1912, was $37,320,966, as compared with $32,418,218 in 1911, an increase in value for 1912 of $4,902,748, or 15 per cent, according to Charles W. Henderson, of the United States Geological Survey. These figures are compiled and tabulated strictly as a mine report and with reference to the locality of each individual mine, and not with reference to the locality of the shipping point of the product. The COLORADO STATESMAN IS PREPARED TO DO ALL KINDS OF The production of gold in Colorado in 1912 showed a decrease in value of $413,413; of silver, an increase of 881,902 ounces; of copper, a decrease of 917,185 pounds; of lead, an increase of 5,562,978 pounds; and of zinc (figured as spelter and zinc in zinc oxide) an increase of 37,615,356 pounds. With increased market prices for silver, copper, and zinc, there were increases in value of $169,644 for copper, $1,165,434 for silver, $250,334 for lead, and $3,730,749 for zinc. Cripple Creek Principal Gold Producer. The output of Cripple Creek in 1912 showed an increase of $445,709 in gold, the production being $11,008,-362, or 59 per cent of the total gold yield of the state. The shipments of medium-grade ore from Cripple Creek to the custom milling plants showed a small decrease, but the shipments of the higher-grade ores to smelters showed a small increase and also an increase in its average content of gold, as well as a heavy increase in low-grade dump and mine ores sent to cyanide and cyanide-concentration mills in the district, and also an increase in amounts recovered from old tailings, slimes, and "clean up" of closed mills. In 1912 cyanidation completely superseded chlorination in the treatment of Cripple Creek ore. The San Juan region, in Dolores, La Plata, Ouray, San Juan, and San Miguel counties, showed a decrease of $900,000 in output of gold, Ouray county showing the largest decrease. There was also a decrease in output from La Plata county, but an increase from San Juan county. Other counties showing an increased output of gold were Chaffee, Gilpin, Eagle, Park, and Summit. The placer output of gold was $423,885, an increase of $104,126 over the output of 1911.

Leadville Leads in Output of Silver. Leadville (Lake county continued to be the chief silver-producing district of Colorado, its output being 3,000,397 ounces, which represent 37 per cent of the state yield. The chief silver-producing counties in Colorado in 1912 were Lake, San Miguel, San Juan, Mineral, Ouray, Pitkin, Clear Creek, and Gilpin, in the order named; these counties combined furnished 89 per cent of the total state production. Notable increases in output of silver were shown in San Juan, Mineral, and San Miguel counties, and notable decreases in La Plata and Clear Creek. Decrease in Copper, Increase in Lead. Copper production in Colorado decreased from 8,024,488 pounds in 1911 to 7,107,303 pounds in 1912. Lake, San Juan, San Miguel, Dolores, Clear Creek, and Ouray counties, in the order named, were the largest producers, Lake county alone furnishing 29 per cent, San Jaun, 15; Gilpin, 14; and the seven counties combined, 92 per cent. The production of lead in Colorado increased from 69,679,289 pounds in 1911 to 75,242,267 pounds in 1912. Lake county ranked first, and was followed by San Juan, Pitkin, San Miguel, Mineral, Summit, and Clear Creek counties, in the order named. Zinc Output 37,000,000 Lbs. Greater. The zinc output of Colorado (in terms of spelter and zinc in zinc oxide) was 132,222,812 pounds in 1912 as compared with 94,607,456 pounds in 1911, an increase for 1912 of 37,615,356 pounds in quantity and of $3,730,749 in value. Lake county, with an increase for the year of 34,335,337 pounds, furnished 105,945,783 pounds or 80 per cent of the state yield. The output of zinc carbonate ore from Leadville was 142,782 tons of 29.2 per cent zinc, against 83,905 tons of 31 per cent zinc in 1911.

Zinc production in concentrates amounted to 46,053,954 pounds, and in crude ore to 86,168,858 pounds. The zinc sulphide ore shipped increased from 79,376 tons of 23.3 per cent zinc in 1911, to 104,148 tons of 23.8 per cent zinc in 1912. The number of deep-mines producing metals in 1912 was 856, against 861 in 1911. The average total recovered value per ton of ore produced increased from $12.50 in 1911 to $14.32 in 1912. In 1912, 2,576,626 short tons of crude ore mined in Colorado were sold or treated, an increase of 198,690 tons over the output of 1911. eS a lly ae a ANE COLORAD (NS 7 ASTATESMANL | tare Od renege epee pat Beene Re Goa CO Sas ee eA, - ae Di aie Ber eestor ae) Mrs. A.

Majority Leader Underwood pre sented the emergency resolution and read a personal letter from Secretary Bryan asking immediate action. The secretary said the department was using $2,000 a day to aid Ameri- cans in Mexico and that but $12,000 was available for that purpose. The resolution will go immediately to the Senate. The resolution was adopted unanimously, with the undersisnding that if further funds were needed a $100,000 appropriation ip the urgent deficiency bill for the same purpose would be allowed to stand, Secretary Bryan said that since the first of this year, the State Depart- ment had spent $52,788.29 in aiding American citizens to get out of Mex- ico. Mexicans Pushing Toward Rio Grande. Eagle Pass, Tex—United States troops and state posses hunting the Mexican ammunition smugglers who shot to death Deputy Sheriff Ortiz, have surrounded the band below Den- tonio, Tex. According to reports to baa authorities here from Lieu- tenant Allen at Blockers Crossing The Mexicans were reported still pushing toward the Rio Grande but their horses were almost exhausted. Mexican Governor Defies Huerta. Vera Cruz.—On board the Ward line steamer Mexico, which sailed for Tan:- pico, Havana, and New York, was the constitutional governor of the state of Hidalgo, Pedro Rosales, Seflor Ro- sales had been summoned to Mexico City and told to ask for leave of ab- sence in order that a military gov- ernor might substitute for him. Ie said he explained to President Huerta that he had been elected to office le- gally, and asked time to think over the proposition made to him. He is one of the richest men in his state.

Colebrook, N. H., Sept. 13.—The pro- tracted court battle, denied Harry K. ‘Thaw in Canada by his sudden depor- tation on Wednesday, promises to be waged in New Hampshire. His new- ly retained counsel hope to have a per- sonal hearing before Governor Felker next Wednesday on the matter of ex- tradition and, should extradition be granted, to carry the matter to the State Supreme Court on a writ of habeas corpus. Three of these attor- neys—N. E. Martin of Concord, Wil- lard H. Olmstead of New York and Merrill Shurtless of Colebrook —bur- ried to the capital. Sheriff Hornbeck of Duchess coun- ty, New York, wherein is located the Matteawan asylum, from which Thaw escaped, was en route here last night with the requisition warrant signed by Acting Governor Glynn. As the doc- ument first must be laid before Gov- ernor Felker, the New York lawyers were chagrined at the sheriff's mis- take in heading for Colebrook. Upon his arrival, he or some other repre- sentative of the state interests, will be turned back to Concord. Why Hornbeck started for this place was a mystery to William Travers Jerome, who for three weeks has been trying to get Thaw back to the asylum. Gatclad Kecmuntforieulcas aisha.

It is needless to say the experts of the bureau of chemistry did not encourage the writer to enter the patent medicine field. He was given specific warning as to the danger of preparing such substances in haphazard fashion, and also given full warning as to the federal law governing the matter. The federal authorities, however, have no legal power under the food and drugs act to prevent these people from making this medicine containing poisonous substances. While there is strict legal regulation over the practice of medicine and the filling of prescriptions, the same legal control does not extend to the manufacture of patent medicine, provided the makers of these patent medicines state on the label the presence of all substances which the law says shall be so noted, and do not use a label that misbrands the article or misleads the purchaser as to its contents, and do not make any excessive or false claims as to its remedial powers, the federal authorities cannot stop the sale of the article in interstate commerce or otherwise. Thirty days hath September, April, June and November; All the rest have thirty-one— You know the rest. Over in the office of the comptroller of the treasury they don't believe in the second line of this old saying, but they stick absolutely to the first. A case in point is that of Dr. Charles W. Richardson. He was ordered to active service on May 31, for that day only. His service was to deliver an address to the graduating class of the army medical school. Doctor Richardson completed his active service by turning in his bill for one day's active service. When the matter came to the attention of Assistant Camptroller Warwick that official decided that in all cases where compensation is rated on a monthly basis each month, February included, the month is presumed to have thirty days and under the law the government does not pay for the thirty-first day. Therefore Doctor Richardson was refused pay for his labor on the 31st day of May. In further explaining the decision treasury officials said that Doctor Richardson, had he delivered his address on February 28, would have received three days' pay. The only thing left is to figure it out for yourself. Senator-elect Robert E. Broussard of Louisiana is a wiser man now. The geological survey made him so. Mr. Broussard was one of the first persons to venture out of his hotel after the severe storm that swept Washington a few days ago. On the sidewalks, where he traveled, he found thousands of pebbles of many shapes and colors. He noticed among others gray, blue and reddish-tinted stones. Believing that the storm had blown such pebbles out of the air or some distant planet, he became curious to know where they came from and whether or not they contained precious metals. He saved a handful of them, and without saying anything about his find, took the little stones to the geological survey for examination. He received a note saying: "Pebbles, blown from the roof of a house that was being covered, some painted blue and others red." The red tape of the United States government simply gets tangled up until it costs the government a pretty penny. Recently an army officer sent in his gas and electric light bills, and these were tied up in so much red tape in the department that the government was finally penalized for the amount, and had to lose the discount. The auditor for the army held the officer responsible and deducted the amount from his credit, but the controller relieved him and allowed him the amount of the difference. The bronze plate placed on the mainmast of the battleship Maine in 1910 by the Daughters of the American Revolution of Habana, Cuba, is to be restored to the historic old spar, when it is erected in Arlington cemetery to mark the graves of the unknown dead of the ill-fated battleship. The Habana chapter of the daughters recently won the consent of the navy department archives when the work of raising the vessel was begun. Overindulgence.

Institution's New Pamphlet Tells of Work of Different Parties and of Many Specimens Received—Solar Rays Variable. Washington.—Following the custom established in 1911, the Smithsonian Institution has just issued an illustrated pamphlet dealing with the many scientific expeditions conducted under its direction, or in which its representatives participated. The pamphlet describes the work of about twenty different parties, and the territory covered includes certain portions of British East Africa, Abyssinia, Algeria, Eastern Siberia and Mongolia, the Altai mountains, Borneo, St. Lawrence Island, Alaska, British Columbia, Alberta, Newfoundland, Labrador, the Panama canal zone, and the Bahama islands, and many sections of the United States. The institution was represented by two small parties in Borneo. Dr. W. L. Abbott, who financed the Dutch East Borneo expedition under Mr. H. C. Raven, and who has presented many large collections to the National museum, has been carrying on a personal investigation in Cashmere, where he has been trapping and studying the smaller mammals of that country, specimens of which have been sent to the museum. Through the invitation of Dr. Theodore Lyman of Harvard university, the institution was enabled to cooperate with the Museum of Comparative Zoology in an expedition to the Altai mountains of Siberia and Mongolia. George Mixter, another collaborator of the museum, also visited Siberia, where he secured certain mammals from the region about Lake Baikal, among them bear and seal. Of particular interest was a trip made by Dr. Ales Hrdlicka to Siberia and Mongolia, to study the physical anthropology of the natives. His particular object was a search for data concerning the race which is supposed to have peopled America. He draws the conclusion that there exist in several places in Siberia, Mongolia and Tibet numerous remains of an ancient population, which was physically identical with and in all probability gave rise to the American Indian. The hunting trip carried on by Paul J. Rainney in British East Africa, in which the institution was represented by Edmund Heller, was terminated in December, 1911, and since then the collection has been received at the National museum. Altogether the trip was a remarkably successful one; nearly 4,000 mammals, 1,000 reptiles, and 400 birds were obtained. The astrophysical observatory of the Smithsonian Institution again sent an expedition to Bassour, Algeria, for the continuation of the observations relative to the heat of the sun, an investigation on which the observatory has been working for the past seven years, with observing stations on Mount Wilson, Cal., and during two seasons in Algeria. Mr. Abbot, the director of the observatory, states that the observations of the last year prove conclusively the supposed variability of the solar rays. SPONGES FOR FERTILIZING The department of agriculture, through its bureau of soils, has recently completed analysis of the Loggerhead sponge, which grows abundantly in the waters of Southern Florida, to determine its value as a fertilizer. This sponge, according to Mr. Thomas E. Reedy of Key West, grows in countless thousands and to an enormous size in shallow water, where it is easy to procure. Mr. Reedy also states that the farmers of the Florida keys use the Loggerhead sponge with wonderful results and hardly ever use chemical fertilizers. Dr. H. F. Moore of the United States bureau of fisheries cites the use of this sponge by citrus fruit growers of the Florida mainland and states that he has seen this sponge growing in such quantities that he has long thought it should be exploited. A specialist of the department recently made analyses of samples from Key West which verify the value of this sponge as a fertilizer. The analyses show that the approximate results on air dry material show four per cent. of nitrogen, three-quarters of one per cent, each of potash and phosphoric acid, five per cent. of lime and 40 per cent. of organic matter. The specialists say that it is evident from the composition of this material and its demonstrated efficiency as a fertilizer that it has considerable value to farmers and fruit growers who have easy access to it in the shallows of the sea. The department is conducting further investigations to determine the feasibility of extending the use of this sponge as a fertilizer. SEEKING INFORMATION While strange letters are not a rarity in government departments, the secretary of agriculture recently received a letter which breaks all records for inquiry having to do with drugs and medicine. This letter, which is printed below, omitting the name and address of the writer, gives an insight into a certain type of persons who think they can use all sorts of drugs and poisons in making patent medicine. An exact copy of the letter follows: CALENDAR REFORMED. SENATOR WAS CURIOUS. RED TAPE TANGLED. TO RESTORE PLATE. Overindulgence. TAKING NICARAGUA UNDER THE EAGLE'S WING MRS. FISH'S RULE IMPERILED BY MRS. ASTOR MRS. FISH'S RULE IMPERILED BY MRS. ASTOR THIS CONGRESSMAN HAS WONDERFUL MEMORY RECEIVER OF REVENUES OF SANTO DOMINGO Whatever the apprehension of the other Central American nations and of some of our own anti-imperialist organs as they regard Mr. Bryan's proposal to establish a form of protectorate over Nicaragua, it meets the hearty approval of the two governments immediately concerned, and finds influential supporters, according to the Washington corre spondents, among both Democrats and Republicans in congress. In the press, too. A. the dictum that "party lines end at the water's edge" is confirmed by the approving attitude of prominent public men, regardless of their party affiliations. The somewhat disgruntled tone of much of the comment from the other Central American states—Costa Rica, Salvador, Guatemala and Honduras—is attributed to fear of "aggression" by this country and to the vanishing of their cherished dream of a federation of the Isthmian republics. Their cry that "this is the beginning of the Now that the "Mother Goose Ball," with its display of millions in jewels and its rigidly censored guest list, has become an event of the past, Newport, R. I., society is sitting up counting noses and wondering what the next move of Mrs. Steuvesant Fish will be. A That the return of Mrs. John Jacob Astor means a war for social supremacy to the utmost limits of cash and ingenuity between her and Mrs. Fish—the latter of whom has held rule with Mrs. Herman Oelrichs undisturbed these many days—no one in the smart set doubts. Behind Mrs. Astor is her long record of leadership in London, where royalty has shared in her entertainments frequently and willingly. But more significant than anything else is the fact that she has swooped down on Newport and New York at the very time that King George and No one in the house of representatives dares to trifle with Representative John J. Fitzgerald of Brooklyn, N. Y., chairman of the great committee on appropriations, until the would-be trifler is sure of his facts. The reason is that "Fitz," as they call him, is possessed of one of the most marvelous memories known to the national legislature. PETER H. BURGESS He can remember the name, date, page and line of every speech ever made in congress—so his friends say. This may be an exaggeration, of course, but Philip Campbell, the stalwart stand-pat Republican from Kansas, has reason to regret "Fitz's" memory. A few weeks ago the question of "tenure of office for government clerks" arose in the house. The Dem- Walter W. Vick, of New Jersey, has been appointed by President Wilson re- celer general of the customs of the republic of Santo Domingo, thus continuing a novel experiment in national finance, inaugurated in 1905. It is the first case in which a bankrupt nation has accepted another nation to act as receiver of its revenues and stand between it and its creditors during the settlement of its outstanding obligations. At the J. B. present time the Dominican republic has more money to spend for proper purposes than ever before, while ample provision is being made for wiping out its indebtedness at an early date. The debt of $30,000,000 in 1905 has been reduced to $17,000,000, while customs dues have been reduced, trade increased, misrule brought to an end, and the blessings of peace established in the formerly turbulent country. At the time when the arrangement was American invasion" is robbed of some of its force by Nicaragua's statement that the proposed protectorate is of her own seeking, and by President Wilson's assurances that it does not represent a "general policy to be followed throughout Central America." The purchase of the exclusive right to build a canal across Nicaragua from the Caribbean to the Pacific, remarks the Boston Transcript, represents a policy of insurance against competition with the Panama canal. The acquisition of a naval base on the Gulf of Fonseca is scarcely less important, according to the same paper, because "we shall have much need of a great harbor on the central west coast when the Panama canal is opened," and "we have need at present of a suitable place to which our Pacific fleet may repair for maneuvers—Magdalena bay, on the Mexican coast, having become unavailable even for target practice." But more significant than either of these features of the treaty, in the opinion of our press, is the proposed protectorate over the turbulent little nation of 600,000 souls, whose kaleidoscopic politics have caused Uncle Sam so much anxiety in the past. As the Washington correspondent of the New York Sun points out, this will make "a broad belt of territory, stretching from ocean to ocean, in which stability of government and industry will be effected." Queen Mary are said to be on the eve of a visit to the United States. Just what to do with the British ruler and his consort when they land on these shores has Washington diplomats, statesmen and society sitting up nights trying to figure out. New York society has reached the stage of almost nervous prostration trying to guess where it will get off on the same monetous occasion. Now that Mrs. Astor has arrived, the wise ones are up a tree, metaphorically. To desert Mrs. Fish and Mrs. Oelrichs and rally to the standard of Mrs. Astor with the chance of being included in a probable audience with royalty under circumstances where Mrs. Astor may play the leading role, is a temptation hard to resist. On the other hand, to flock too quickly to Mrs. Astor may put the elect in a bad way, for the return of Mrs. Astor may be only a temporary affair, and her departure for England, much beloved of the Astors, may leave them outside the bars when Mrs. Fish and Mrs. Oelrichs again step into power. That Mrs. Fish and Mrs. Oelrichs will not give up leadership without a bitter struggle is only too apparent. In the meantime society is guessing and watching for the next move of these resourceful women. ocrats had a proposition to make government clerks' employment proceed in terms of six years. Representative Campbell made a most vigorous and fiery speech against it. He called it iniquitous; he called it tyrannical; he called it unfeeling, unsympathetic and smelling of graft and corruption, and made great applause for himself on the Republican side. "While he was talking, Representative Fitzgerald called Marcellus Shields, assistant clerk to the house appropriations committee. "Get me the Record of about April 12, 1906," he said. Shields brought the volume and Fitzgerald turned to April 12. There was the speech of Campbell of Kansas in favor of a tenure of office—exactly in favor of the thing he was now denouncing. Fitzgerald waited his chance and then read Campbell's six-year-old speech—and Campbell nearly died of embarrassment. "John," he said to Fitzgerald in the cloakroom afterward, "how in the name of crime did you remember that speech? Why, I forgot that I ever made it!" entered into under the terms of a treaty between the United States and San Domingo, European intervention seemed a certainty. Now claims are being settled rapidly. The city of Santo Domingo, the capital, was the site of one of the first settlements made by Christopher Columbus in the West Indies. His brother, Diego, was the first governor of the colony and here was built the first stone church in the western hemisphere. Took It Literally. Pat could not find his watch, so he went to his friend, the lieutenant at the police station, and reported that he had lost it. The lieutenant assured him that he would not leave a stone in New York unturned until the watch had been found. Pat returned home much comforted by his friend's assurance, and a few hours later discovered the watch in the lining of his vest, so he set out immediately for the police station to inform the lieutenant of his find. As he was passing along his way he saw some men who were tearing up stones in the street to put in gas pipes, and going up to them he said: "Niver mind, lads, I've found the watch."

Yield Is Estimated at 200,000 Tons Digging Begins and Factory Opens Sept. 15. Western Newspaper Union News Service. Longmont, Colo.-The digging of beets in this section has commenced and it is expected that the factory will begin operations Monday. The crop is the largest ever raised in the Longmont section. Seventeen thousand acres are to be harvested, which will yield upwards of 200,000 tons. Reports from all-sections are to the effect that the beet crop was never better. The tonnage will be heavy and the sugar content high. It is estimated that the money value will amount to $1,500,000. Besides hundreds who will be employed at the factory, it will take an army of workers to get the big crop out of the ground, and it is feared that trouble will be experienced in securing sufficient help. As a result of the raising of beets on such a large scale, over 15,000 cattle will be fed on the farms around Longmont, beet pulp and tops being used as feed, which will furnish employment for another large number of men throughout the winter. Highlanders Re-Elect Officers Denver.—At the national castle convention of the Royal Highlanders, all the elective officers were re-elected for the ensuing year and a reception and ball were held in honor of the executive officers. Memorial resolutions were adopted to the memory of Judge J. H. Smith, former chief counselor of the Highlanders, on motion made by present Counsellor Judge Heiner. The officers elected and installed were: W. E. Sharp, president, Lincoln, Neb.; W. McQueen, California, most worthy evangel; F. J. Sharp, Aurora, Neb., chief secretary; A. E. Sickmann, Aurora, Neb., chief treasurer; H. B. Traut, Omaha, high presidential chief; F. H. Hanke, Sutton, Neb., presidential chief; L. J. Sickmann, Hastings, Neb., high presidential chief. Struck By Lightning Twice. Evans. — Freakish lightning disproved the saying, "Lightning never strikes twice in the same place," and sustained the one to the effect that "There's an exception to every rule." Within four hours the home of W. O. Michaels was struck twice by bolts and in each instance the entire family escaped without injury. The first bolt tore off shingles, ripped away plaster, disarranged pictures and burned a hole in the floor of the room where it struck. The first bolt struck at 5 o'clock and the second four hours later, striking within two feet of the same place each time. Michaels, with the remark that his trust in axioms was gone, moved himself and his family into a hotel for the remainder of the night. Miss Oldland Killed in Auto Plunge. Denver.—Miss Isabelle Knowles, daughter of C. N. Knowles of Denver and sister of the famous football brothers, Robert, Wallis Edward and Carl Knowles, had a narrow escape from death when the Meeker-Rifle automobile stage in which she was a passenger, plunged over a bridge 16 miles from Meeker into a dry arroya eight feet in depth, turning turtle and killing Miss Lillian Oldland of Meeker, who was coming to Denver to resume her studies at the Loretto Heights convent. Cowboy Gored at Fort Collins. Fort Collins.—On the third day of the Colorado Stampede and Roundup "Billie" Baker was dangerously injured while attempting to "bulldog" a steer. As he was racing down the track alongside the steer his horse swerved just as he was about to throw himself on the steer's horns and instead of catching the horns with his hands, he was thrown bodily on them and one of the sharp points ripped a hole in his abdomen. Mower Severs Babè's Foot.

Briggsdale's second annual harvest home celebration attracted many visitors. "Secret divorces are taboo in Denver hereafter," decreed the five district judges of Denver, sitting en banc. Pioneers from all parts of Colorado attended the funeral of Morse H. Coffin, Colorado pioneer, who died at his ranch near Longmont. James Austin Shreve, for fifty-three years a resident of Denver, died at his home, 2360 Franklin street. Death was due to pneumonia. An unsuccessful attempt to kidnap ten-year-old Elizabeth Wilson Weckel was made at Fruita by her mother, Mrs. D. W. Stewart of Grand Junction. One hundred and fifty-three girls, including ninety-one from Denver, entered the Colorado Woman's college in Montclair at the opening of the fall term. The National Terra Cotta society, composed of manufacturers of architectural terra cotta in the United States, held its annual meeting in Denver. Margaret, the fifteen-year-old daughter of Joseph Reynolds, a sheep rancher on the lower Cucharas, disappeared suddenly from her home at Walsenburg. Nine bridges below Box Prairie and the road in Rist canon were carried awy by a cloudburst in the Buckhorn valley, part of the same storm which swept the St. Vrain valley. Four hundred scientists who keep their fingers on the pulse of the United States opened the annual meeting of the American Public Health Association at Colorado Springs. George, Vorhees, a veteran of the Civil war, fell on the sidewalk at Grand Junction and crushed his skull. He is still unconscious and is not expected to live. He is eighty years of age. When the motorcycle he was riding collided with one ridden by J. T. Thornton, at the intersection of East Thirty-second avenue and Gilpin street in Denver, William Davidison was instantly killed. An information charging Mrs. Norma Pumphrey, who shot and killed her husband in their home in Denver, with murder, was filed in criminal district Court by Assistant District Attorney Charles Mahoney. The woman is in the county jail. Fifty Swedish ministers of Colorado and neighboring states held their twentieth annual session at the First Swedish Methodist Episcopal church in Denver. The delegates to the six-day session are ministers of Methodist Episcopal churches. Reports at Lyons indicate that the damages done by the cloudburst over Allen park and the susbequent rush of water down the St. Vrain river was not nearly as great as reported, although portions of the Estes park road are washed away. That a happening of more than twelve years ago when he was accused of killing a cow on a farm near Paducah, Ky., entered the demented mind of Joseph H. Thomas, foreman of the White Bear ranch near Craig, and caused him to end his life, is the belief of the Craig authorities. The largest anti-saloon mass meeting ever held in the Pike's Peak region was broken up at Colorado Springs by a severe electrical and rainstorm. Six thousand persons packed Temple theater to protest against the town of Ramona, which is being incorporated as a "wide open" city. Something over $12,000,000 in values now just below the surface of the farms in Colorado will begin to come out in a few days. It is the sugar beet crop, the biggest by far and one of the best in saccharine quality ever grown in Colorado. Sheep feeders in the Fort Collins district are hard to please this year and are buying only the very best of lambs for feeding which are in good shape when they come off the range and which will require only a minimum amount of feeding to put in condition for the market.

The white of an egg, a little apple sauce, pieces of butter, half a tumblerful of cream—countless odds and ends have to be saved. Frequently they occupy a large part of the pantry crockery. Most of the improvised receptacles lack covers, yet it is important to protect the contents. Paper covers will do the work. They are light, clean and convenient, and once the knack is acquired are easy to make. Filter paper, such as chemists use, is the best for the purpose. It is inexpensive and so soft and tough that it can be folded several times without breaking. Cut out a square piece twice the size of the top of the tumbler or dish to be covered. Clip off the four corners; then, with your left hand, hold the octagonal piece in place upon the tumbler. Roll the projecting edges of the paper inward and upward and press them against the outside of the tumbler or dish. If you have made the cap correctly, you can easily remove it from any smooth-edged receptacle, such as a tumbler, and use it again and again. SERVING CORN ON THE COB Typical American Dish Requires Some Care in Its Proper Preparation for the Table. There is no vegetable of which so much can be made as the typically American sweet green corn. Some persons insist that no dish is more delicious than corn on the cob, but there is a certain art which must be mastered if even this simple dish is to be well prepared. One way to boil it is to select thick, short ears and remove all of the husk excepting the inner layer. Strip that down and take off all the silk and cut out the grains that are dried or discolored. Tie the husk over the ear again and boil it 20 minutes in a deep covered pot, or 15 minutes if the ears are small. Then remove the string which holds the husk in place and serve either in the husks or without the husks on a folded napkin. Another way to prepare corn on the cob is to remove the outer leaves and silk from six young ears and put them in a saucepan with just enough water to cover them. Add half a cupful of milk, half an ounce of butter and a pinch of salt. Cook for 20 minutes, covered tightly, and then serve. Remember that the sweetest ears are the freshest. Boiled Bluefish. Bluefish is always a palatable dish, but prepared in this manner it is even more delicious: Ingredients: Two pounds of good broiling fish. Half a tablespoonful of butter. One lemon. Half a bunch of parsley. Salt to taste. Clean the fish properly, leaving small ones whole and cutting large ones in slices convenient to serve, or split in two parts, head to tail. Rub each piece with salt, inside and out, and leave to stand two hours before cooking. Wash each portion again, coat with butter and broil on each side over a moderate fire on a gridiron. Serve on lettuce leaves and garnish with parsley, slices of lemon and the red of radishes. Green Gooseberry Jelly. This is made almost precisely like cranberry jelly. Add $1\frac{1}{2}$ cups of water to each pint of steamed and cupped berries and simmer gently until the berries break; then turn into a jelly bag and let drain over night. Measure the juice and add sugar in proportion of a pound to pint of juice. First boil the juice steadily for 15 minutes; add the sugar, warmed, and stir until it is dissolved; then let boil steadily for half an hour or until it will jell when dropped on a cold saucer. Skim well while boiling. Testing Brooms. Very few housewives know how to tell a good broom from a bad one. When a new broom wears out quickly they blame the grocer and often refuse to buy another broom at the same store. If, when they were buying one, they would test it, they would have no one but themselves to blame for a poor broom. It should be tested by pressing it to the floor. If the straws spread out and bend it is a poor broom. If they remain solid it is a good one. For Kitchen Shelves. Instead of continually buying lace shelf paper, you will find it much cheaper in the end to buy coarse torchon lace the desired width, sew on a piece of tape, and tack to the shelf with small tacks. Whenever dirty, take off, wash and iron. This will last for years, and your pantry will always be fresh and attractive. Shelves for precious china and glassware should have pads of felt to prevent chipping. When fragile plates must be piled one on another, a round piece of blotting paper placed between will save breakage. Spanish Potatoes. This dish is achieved by adding cream, butter and seasoning to mashed potatoes and then mixing with some canned plumatoes cut small and forced through a puree strainer. The whole should be well blended, then rebeated and oiled on serving dish.

Exercise to Develop the Throat, Neck and Bust Girls who are inexperienced in the matter of deep breathing do not realize that lung expansion, and using the cords about the neck, will do wonders, not only for the throat and neck, but will also develop the bust. If you doubt the effect of full lungs upon hollows of the neck you can demonstrate it easily to your own satisfaction. Just remove all tight clothing, stays, etc., and stand with bared neck before a mirror. Then slowly inhale through the nostrils until the lungs are filled from the lowest part to the top, and with the swelling of the upper part of these organs, all angles will disappear, for the hollows will be filled out. If the habit of deep breathing can be acquired and regularly practiced a great step toward beauty is thus gained. Incidentally so much other physical benefit comes from this habit that the entire system is improved. During the exercises hold the chest in correct military position and throw the shoulders well back. I have often heard dumbbells recommended as a valuable adjunct to these exercises, but if the fists are clenched and all work is done with a vigorous throw of the hands, as if one were trying to fling them from the arms, nothing further is needed. It is only in this way, though, that good will result in the exercise, for if the work comes merely from the elbows it is useless. Try it, and you will see that if the arms above the elbow are not vigorously worked no chest or neck cords are exercised. Different individuals need different treatment as to external applications. From experience I have found this to be true. Often I advise a certain lotion or cream to be used, and in some cases results will prove very gratifying, while in others the women will write me to say the lotion was absolutely no benefit to them at all. This is mainly caused by different textures of the skin. Some skins absorb what is applied to them quite readily, while others have [ ] be massaged and worked upon in order to make it sink in. I know a woman who declares that she can make her neck plump in a few weeks by massaging it every night with warm almond oil and drinking a glass of two of milk before retiring. The same treatment might suit others admirably, for almost any kind of warm oil is certainly a tissue builder and in this state it absorbs more readily and so feeds the pores. Milk is also fattening. A physician has recommended in cases of thin neck, as from ill health, the taking of cod liver oil and direct applications of a good lotion to the neck. The action of any application is likely to be hastened if the skin has been previously wet with hot cloths for five or ten minutes to soften and open the pores, which will then have even a greater power of absorption. A cream that has the reputation of filling out when persistently used is made of half a gram of tannin, thirty grams of lanoline and twenty grams of sweet almond oil. Mix by breaking the lanoline into bits and melt it in a china cup set into a pan of hot water. When you see it becoming oily beat in the almond oil, then remove the cup from the water and beat. At the first sign of cooling beat in the tannin. When all is creamed it is ready and is used as any other massage cream. If after following all directions for applications you find that within a reasonable time it does not absorb as well as it should or in any other way does not agree with your skin, it is evident you need to change, and another kind of cream should be substituted. Warm oil, tissue builders and massage creams have all had their praises sung by different women, and of course it only remains to be found out what agrees best and absorbs readily into your skin. Having decided upon the kind of application that best agrees with your skin, and being willing to take the time for the work, you should remove all constricting garments and have plenty of fresh air in the room. Exercise may begin with deep breathing. At first only two or three long breaths may be possible without becoming light-headed. This sometimes is due to your not being accustomed to filling your lungs, and as the habit is acquired the unpleasant feeling disappears. It is better to take a couple of long drawn breaths every few minutes than to take ten at once, for instance. MME. ARMAND. DAINTY FALL GOWN. Model of black satin trimmed with cords of beads.
