Thanking you for the space allotted me and that "success" be the slogan of all concerned. I am.
Yours Respectfully.
In a late issue of the London Spectator is a very interesting and suggestive editorial bearing upon racial conditions in South Africa. The white man in South Africa seems to be in continual danger and in such perpetual trepidation. He is afraid of the native black man and now he seems more afraid of the East Indian, who has been imported into South Africa in large numbers for the purpose of labor. The white man in South Africa really seems to be in a pitiful condition. He always wants protection of some kind from some color. He cannot or will not perform the rough menial labor himself, and when he imports the East Indian to perform it for him he is constantly afraid that the East Indian will grow intelligent, will get hold of wealth, will become owner of property and, therefore, demand a share in the government of the country.
The white man in South Africa is equally afraid of the black native, but does not want to have them become intelligent, thrifty or prosperous. If either of these races grows in any one of these directions the poor white man gets at once into a panicky condition. Really the white man in South Africa deserves the sympathy and the pity of the world. We do not know how to suggest a remedy for his pitiful condition except to gradually teach him that in proportion as all people are taught that one man is equal to another and should have the same opportunities and rights, many of the imaginary fears he now suffers under will disappear.
The late James Freeman Clarke, answering a man who feared that if women had the ballot they would go to congress, said: "Perhaps so, but not until we want them. And when we want them we shall no longer be shocked at their taking 'such positions."
Kansas City, Mo., Dec. 22, 1913. Editor COLORADO STATESMAN, Dear Sir:— Please allow me space in your valuable paper for the following article: There is perhaps no great body of men in the country that has felt the need of an organization more than the Pullman porters and conductors, who are the most poorly paid for service rendered than any employees working for a corporation, and especially is this true of the porters who are dependent on the charity of the traveling public to make up the deficiency of the paultry sum of $27.50 per month paid by the Pullman company in order that they might exist. Out of the salary of the porters is deducted each pay day, thousands of dollars for any shortage of equipment that might occur on the cars; such as combs, brushes, towels etc., that passengers might take as souvenirs.
While on duty, they in many instances receive only about four hours sleep out of thirty-six hours and if a spotter or service inspector catches one "napping" he is written up and given book suspension for what nature had forced him to do.
It is gratifying to know that an organization has been perfected for the purpose of bringing about better condition. The organization will be known as the "American Federation of Pullman Conductors" and "American Federation of Pullman Porters," which are two separate organizations under one head, with headquarters in Chicago. The boys realize that "In Union there is Strength," and are fast sending in their membership from every district in the country.
All labor organizations as well as the Press and public in general are delighted to see the conductors and porters band together for a just cause for which the organization is destined to promote. The president of the organization is C. F. Stewart, with R. W. Bell as secretary, both of whom sacrificed their jobs in the interest of the movement.

While I am an ex-pullman porter and do not expect a position with the company again yet, I am glad to see that the boys are determined to make a success of the

JACKSON, DIXON AND GANS REAL COLORED MASTERS OF RING GAME
JACKSON, DIXON AND GANS REAL COLORED MASTERS OF RING GAME
(Denver Post)
Peter Jackson started the history of high class Negro pugilism. He was in his prime when John L. Sullivan ruled the heavyweight division. John L. always steadfastly refused to meet a man of another color, leaving the contention of those who think Jackson the better man really outside the bounds of argument. It may be mentioned, however, that James J. Corbett was pretty lucky to gain a draw after sixty-one rounds of terrific sledging with the Negro, and this same Corbett was later the man to take the terrible Sullivan's measure. Besides, Jackson gave the great Joe Choynski a touching, and Choynski never was to be derided.
"It would be the hardest thing in the world to decide which was the greater fighter, George Dixon or Joe Gans, for they were members of different classes. 'Little Chocolate' was a wonderfully clever boy, and in his remarkably long string of battles he fought everybody that could be stacked against him. Perhaps the most notable of his achievements were in battles against the man who many contend was the cleverest boxer that ever put on a pair of gloves, young Griffo. Twice they met in the ring, the first time for a twenty five round encounter, with the result a draw, their second meeting was over the ten-round route, and so closely did they battle that the referee was forced to call another draw.
DIXON LITTLE KING
There was no one in the big field of featherweights in Dixon's time who had anything on him, and he held the title until Ben Jordan, a clever Britsher, came along and shaded him in twenty-five in New York. But when Jordan appeared, Dixon was well on the road to the finish, for loose living had made inroads on his constitution. He continued to battle, however, and there followed the worst beating that 'Little Chocolate' ever met. That happened when he clashed with Terry McGovern in New York. "Terrible Terry' battered the Negro all over the ring and finally stopped him in eight rounds. Dixon never really recovered from that beating, and in the bouts he engaged in afterwards he wasn't the same boy. It wasn't long after Dixon stopped fighting that he died.
"Joe Walcott was the eighth wonder of the boxing world at the time he was milling. Only 5 feet $ 1 \frac{1}{2} $ inches in height and weighing in the neighborhood of 145 pounds, he barred no one of any weight,
meeting heavyweights just as readily as welters.
"When Joe Gans was lightweight champion he certainly was the 'smartest' thing in the boxing line, but, like Dixon, Gans has passed on, his end coming soon after he quit the ring. He captured the title from Frank Erne, the Buffalo boy, in a one round of the knockout order. Gans held his honors until 1908, when Battling Nelson scored a knockout victory. It can be said for Gans that he was 'through' when he lost the crown for consumption had taken a grip on him and it wasn't long after that that he passed.
FOUR LANGUAGES
SPOKEN IN AFRICA
Concerning African languages Sir Harry Johnston, who speaks with high authority, has declared that "in Africa there are four great languages of the present and the future: English, Arabic, Hausa and Swahill." Throughout Central Africa Swawhill serves admirably as a lingua franca for purposes of trade and travel. This important language, which is the east coast form of Bantu, reflects the mixture of African and Arab elements found in the population between Membasa and Zanibar. Under the old commercial system, based on the slave trade, this speech spread, and was carried along all the caravan routes which led from every part of the region of the great Central African lakes down to the seaports. Today Swawhill is said to be spoken by 29,000,000 people, and is largely used as an official language in German East Africa and even in Belgian Congo.
Ranch-Bred Foxes Best.
While the supply of ranch foxes is on the increase, the wild fox is becoming more scarce. For instance, out of 56 live foxes captured by the Indians in the Yukon district last spring, only two were silver black. The silver gray foxes of this lot commanded $3,600 a pair. There is, besides, a decided superiority to the ranch-bred fox, as the animal is better fed and has the best of care.
Facts About the Bible
The middle verse of the Bible is the eighth verse of the one hundred and eighteenth Psalm. The twenty-first verse of the seventh chapter of Ezra contains all the letters of the alphabet except the letter j. The longest verse is the ninth verse of the eighth chapter of Esther. The shortest verse is the ninth verse of the eleventh chapter of St. John.
Parental Effort.
"What are you working so hard for?" "I want to provide for my boy's future," replied Farmer Corntossel. "I want to lay by enough wealth so that I can leave, Josh this farm for a golf course."

RACE NEWS
GATHERED FROM VARIOUS SOURCES
Cambridge, Mass., Dec. 11.—The Harvard seniors have elected a colored man, Alexander L. Jackson of Englewood, N. J., their orator for classday. 1914. Jackson has won a tract "H" and is famous for his hurdling and sprinting. He was elected by six votes over H. C. Place, the head scholar of the class.
Paris, Dec. 20.—"Sam" Langford, the Negro heavyweight pugi list of Boston, was awarded the decision on "points" over Joe Jeanette of Hoboken, N. J., at the end of a twenty-round contest held here tonight. The bout was considered in France to be for the heavyweight championship of the world. Langford forced 'the fighting throughout the battle. Jeanette took a count of nine, three times in the thirteenth round and at the end of the twentieth period was barely able to stand. In the twelfth fifteenth and nineteenth rounds Jeanette landed hard blows on his opponent, but they were ineffective. Jeanette's gameness frequently brought cheers from the spectators.
Florence, S. C., Dec. I6.—Assistant Postmaster Mischeaux has been removed by the Wilson Administration. The reason: Because he is a Negro. Mischeaux served under J. E Wilson, a colored man, and has been working under Post-master J. A. Chase, white, for several months. Chase received word last week from Congressman Ragsdale that the effort to have Mischeaux let out had resulted favorably. No charges were made against Assistant Postmaster Mischeaux. He was regarded as an efficient assistant. Prominent white business men petitioned for his retention, but it is reported that Ragsdale and other white politicians are determined to have every Negro office-holder in the Sixth District removed.
Birmingham, Ala., Dec. 16. "Too frequent outbursts of crime in which Negroes figure, even though they are crimes in which Negroes, put the city to extra expense, made a bad name for the community, and do not by any means predispose thinking people towards the progress and achievements of the Negro." Thus spoke W. B. Driver, retiring president of the Birmingham Negro Business League, the most forceful Negro organization in the community at the public installation of the
newly elected officers. In his address Mr. Driver reviewed the progress of the business league in Birmingham and advocated the institution of Negro police officers to ferret our Negro criminals in the alleys and for the Negro districts.
Newburgh, N. Y., Dec. 17.—Because the Ladycliff Academy of Highland Fafls drew the color line and discriminated against his daughter, suit for $5,000 has been brought by Antonia Navarro, a native of Santo Domingo, now residing in New York, against the institution. Navarro alleges that he sent his daughter to the Ladycliff Academy last year and arrangements were made with the managers of the school that Miss Navarro, should take the fous years' course of instruction. However, at the expiration of the regular term last spring a request was made by the Sisters of the institution to take Miss Navarro away, as the other pupils refused to associate with her. Although Navarro complied with the Sisters' request, he has sued the Ladycliff Academy for damages.
Waycross, Oa., Dec. 16.—Following one of the most sensational trials known in Ware County in years, William Young, a Negro, charged with criminally assalting a 14-year-old white girl in the Waresbore district, was acquainted in Superior Court. The defense tore down the allegations of the prosecution, and the girl involved, who spent some time on the stand, made contradictory statements that at the very start caused doubt to exist as to the truth in the case. J. L. Bird, father of the girl, is a prisoner in jail, charged with shooting Young. Bird claimed he shot Young in an effort to prevent his escape. Young denied the charge at the start, and said he was shot without provocation. Intimations that may result in disclosures of a serious nature were given by attorneys interested. It is the first time such a case has been tried in Ware in years, and is one of the few cases of record where a Negro was turned loose after being charged with such a crime.
Limited Temperance.
The first temperance society was formed in New England and its pledge read: "We, the undersigned, believing in the evil effect of strong drink, do hereby pledge ourselves on our sacred honor that we will not get drunk more than four times a year—Muster day, Fourth of July, Thanksgiving and Christmas."

The character of enterprises undertaken by colored persons in a busy city is indicated by the recent investigation of Chicago's negroes made for the Juvenile Protective association. Of "the principal street in the 'black belt,'" this report says:
"In a mile on State street, from 3000 to 3900, the investigators found 108 colored men in business, who employed 270 colored men. Of these business undertakings 12 were saloons—most of them newly opened; 12. barber shops, seven real estate offices—only three of them ten years old; ten restaurants—five of them having been there more than five years and two for more than ten years; six pool rooms—all recently opened; four hair dressers, and three tailors, in addition to confectioners, bakers, cleaners, decorators, dressmakers, druggists and the other miscellaneous shops usually found in a self-contained neighborhood. As ministering to the higher life, there were found in the same block three music stores, one 'art' store, one piano store, two printers, and—if they may be included in such a list—a photographer and a florist. all of the latter save one have been in existence for more than five years, in sharp contrast to the ephemeral life of the poolrooms and saloons, only one of which has survived so long, while 11 others have changed proprietors recently.
"The total amount of capital invested in the mile by the 108 colored men was found to be $15,750.
"Several colored women manage independent hair dressing establishments in Chicago. On State street there are two successful restaurants conducted by women; also one saloon and one florist shop; two widows of their original owners.
"There are a large proportion of men, many of whom do business with white people."
Following in many details the fiction story which was published a few weeks ago in a leading periodical, the Housekeepers' Alliance of the District of Columbia voted to start a training school for colored servants January 1. Although similar in these details, the idea is not a new one, but has been in the process of formation for several years.
The training school will be conducted on an economic basis. In connection with the institution, business women of the District will be taken in as boarders, thus providing an income. It is estimated that it will cost about $1,800 per annum to conduct the school besides this income, making a cost of about $60 for each servant trained. Forty servants will be turned out every year. The site for the training school has not yet been selected, although several sites are now under consideration. The home of the training school was provided for many rooms. Each girl taking the course will be required to present a physician's certificate testifying to good health.
Frank Jenkins, a little negro student of Far Rockaway, won the high school cross-country championship of Greater New York over the three and a quarter mile course of the Jamaica High school. Jenkins won as he pleased, although Alvin Robertson of Evander Childs was a close second. J. Gordon Moriarity of Richmond Hill was third. Team honors were won by the Jamaica High school with a total of 83 points. Morris High was second with 94 and Erasmus Hall third with 139.
Those who knew John Randolph Tucker of Virginia will not marvel at the affection and esteem in which he was held by the colored page.
"How well I remember him," said John A. Patten, former congressional page as he speared a drifting scrap of paper on the lawn. "When he was running for the first time for the office of Attorney General of Virginia he had to make his campaign on horseback, and wherever he stopped he received royal hospitality.
"Alighting at the home of a prominent planter, he seated himself with the master of the house on the broad veranda. In response to a request for a drink of water, one of the negro house servants was sent to the spring.
"In a few moments he returned with a glass of water, cool and clear. It needed no apology, but there were traditions to be preserved, and Sam hastened to say:
"Please 'scuse the glass, Mars Ran, kase the gourd am broke.'"
A baggage truck invented by a Californian has hooks on the handles to permit it to be carried with its load upstairs on a man's shoulders.
The Bible College and Institute for Civic and Social Betterment at Washington, D. C., has been in operation in this city for about six years.
Under its auspices the interdenominational gospel wagon has been in operation for several years, and the Industrial Center, at 2422 K street, was established for the training of colored women in the useful and practical work of life.
The wealth of Great Britain is estimated at $80,000,000,000 and that of France at $65,000,000,000.
If every penny of the $4,000,000 raised in the Y. M. C. A. and Y. W. C. A. campaign at Philadelphia had been twins there wouldn't have been enough even then to satisfy all the needs of the two organizations.
The colored people themselves have been almost feverishly interested in the progress of the money campaign. They worked like Trojans, bringing in each day $2,000 or $3,000, which they had collected in small sums. Mrs. Ransome, the president of the women's branch, is the wife of a colored Baptist minister and a wonderful speaker herself. When the campaign first started several conferences were held at the homes of prominent women, and Mrs. Ransome was one of those who told of the needs of the different phrases of the work.
One afternoon one of the officers of the association, while listening to Mrs. Ransome, notice that the drawing room door was cautiously opened a crack and remained ajar till the end of the conference. After it was over the surprise of the women in charge was great when the old colored butler came up and deferentially asked for a pledge blank. It was given to him. When he handed it back they almost doubted their eyes when they read the amount on it. The old butler had subscribed $1,000. They appealed to the mistress of the house. Did she suppose he had so much money as that? Ought they to take it, even if he had it to give?
"Yes," said the employer, "he probably has it. He has been in our family 30 years, and he has saved his money. If he wants to, give that amount for the benefit of his own people let him do it. It is a great thing for them and for him."
During the four years that John A. Patten, a colored man, served as a page in congress, he was naturally brought in close touch with many distinguished men whose names today are household words. The impressions made upon his mind are vivid, and in describing these men with whom he came in contact, Patten speaks directly and to the point.
When asked whom he regarded as the greatest among those towering figures, he-replied that when it came to commanding the attention of both parties in the house and the interest of the galleries, there was no one who could compare with the wizened "Little Giant" Stephens. He spoke seldom, but when he did there was a hush of expectancy and rapt attention.
Patten chuckled as he recalled a story concerning Stephens. Without coming into the open, a certain member of the house had defeated one of the pet measures in which Stephens was interested. In order to avert suspicion, the man of the underground methods hastened to Stephen's hotel rooms, condoled with him at great length, and inveighed against the treachery of the man who had balked his pet measure. To all of this Stephens listened in silence until the denunciation of "somebody" was ended. Then, in his well-known falsetto, he turned to his astonished visitor and exclaimed: "Yes, and as Nathan said to David, Thou art the man!."
One of the strange sights in the recent blizzard at Cleveland was furnished by four patient camels, attached to a theatrical company on a tour, who plodded resignedly through the blinding snow.
Senator Clapp of Minnesota made an address recently at the Cosmopolitan Baptist church, Washington, D. C., recently on "Government Relationship to the Negro." The purpose of the meeting was to inaugurate a campaign which has as its purpose the raising of $15,000 to pay off the church debt.
"The obligation of the government for the religious and intellectual education of the negro." said Senator Clapp, "is of the same degree as that for the whites." He also discussed the progress of the colored race during the last few years. "At no time since the emancipation have the negroes been without the assistance of the whites, but the time soon will be here when the race will be able to stand alone and accept its burden independently," said he.
The meeting which was the first of a series, was presided over by F. N. Lee. Addresses also were made by Rev. I. N. Ross, of the Metropolitan A. M. E. church, and Capt. H. D. Richardson, of the National Guard.
The Chinese have many uses for empty tin cans, fashioning them into various household utensils.

BEET MEN GET $500000
MORE FOR GREAT CROP IN 1913
THAN PREVIOUS YEAR.
Sugar Produced Was 14,000 Tons in Excess of Output of Colorado Factories in 1912.
Greeley, Colo.—The sugar beet crop in Colorado for 1913 shows a big gain over the 1912 output, according to figures given out by the sugar companies. The number of tons of beets for 1913 is 1,850,000 as compared with 1,641, $61 in 1912.
Farmers this year received $10,000,000 as against $9,500,000 for the year previous.
There is also a big increase in acreage. There were 166,000 acres placed in sugar beets this year while in 1912 there were but 145,000 acres. The tons of sugar yielded from the crop this year will be 230,000 as against 216,000 a year ago.
The figures show that to handle the 1913 crop $2,400,000 was expended for factory labor, and $3,400,000 for field labor. Supplies and fuel involved' an expenditure of $2,500,000. The number of men employed in the fourteen sugar factories in operation was 5,000. The value of the manufactures is placed at $21,500,000. Several of the factories have already completed their run and all of them will be through by the middle of January.

LETTING IN THE LIGHT
The colored newspaper like the white press of the land is set to turn on the light of the intelligence so that the darkened intellect might be awakened. Its foremost task is to discuss the current events of the times and things of especial interest to the race. That the colored press has its place and is filling its mission is evidenced by the expressions of disappointment when this paper does not reach its subscribers. To the credit of the editor it may be said that it is no fault of the management, for the paper comes out regularly no matter what may happen. Seldom it is the fault of the postman, who also is regular and painstaking in its delivery. The question then arises what becomes of the papers addressed to subscribers working in private families where the servant's mail is addressed to residence of their employers. The answer is plain. It is either deliberately withheld because employers regard mail sent to Negroes of no importance or that they do not wish them to receive the light and information that the newspaper brings to their servants. Some employers still hold to the old ante-bellum doctrine that God created different sorts of people, masters and servants, and that the latter should be satisfied with their positions, and they attempt to withhold from them anything that brings them a desire to better their condition or turn on the light or to discover the injustice of the employer's position. But the light is bound to spread, and the colored newspapers cannot at this late day be suppressed.
THE LIMITS OF CHARITY
The abuse of charitableness is a far too prevalent sin among colored people, an done that is not criticised enough for their own good. It is a common thing with many to consider themselves standing objects of provident consideration at the hands of their white acquaintances or employers, and if they do not thus secure a certain amount of their livelihood, they consider their lots cast in hard and thorny places. The excusable trait in the ante-bellum Negro of considering himself the natural object of private charity, has, by force of example, taken too strong hold upon the principles and energies of the younger element, so that many of them look for favors and charities merely on account of their race identity. It should not be forgotten that the character of improvidence and servility attaches to a donor's estimation of the man or woman who is always looking for, wanting or ready to accept donations and gifts. To provide for the common beggar the community establishes boards of charity and poorhouses, but those who regularly seek and expect charity contributions and favors, while not confessed beggars, come to be regarded as an improvident load and responsibility upon those who happen to be thrown into business relations with them. This causes many people to despise the Negro, while others soften their contempt into an idea of general indolence and worthlessness. Colored men, and especially those who pretend to be men of integrity and understanding, need to cultivate pride and self-dependence to the extent that all their dealings with white people shall be strictly upon a basis of right and merit. A colored business man who asks patronage or other favors because he is colored, or poor, or sick, or otherwise unfortunate, is not doing a legitimate business as white men do it, but is simply masking beggary. The only way to gain a respectable standing, either in the business world or the field of labor, is to go in upon your merits and give value received for the benefits and rewards that you earn. No merchant or other business man is under any obligation to show you favors because you are indigent; nobody is under obligation to employ or favor you because you are poor. You must learn to compete with others in your sphere upon the ground of individual merit. To accept such a competition manfully will not only instill a spirit of independence and worthiness in those that accept it, but a high respect in the minds of those that observe it. A colored business man who is able, energetic and full of business, inspires not only others of his own race, but all others with whom he comes in business contact. The lack of thrift, independence and business energy and the prevalence of charitable expectancy are probably the causes of many business failures among colored men. They expect charitable consideration for their inability or neglect to equal others in their line, and when people grow tired of such concessions, as they are soon bound to do, their enterprises collapse. Charity carries its limit. As a private virtue, its repetition entails the loss of respect; as a public necessity it is at the best a cold service. In both business and community relations the colored people will do well to get beyond its necessity as soon as they possibly can.

School Children Need Much Fresh Air
By WALTER W. ROACH, A. M. M. D.
Philadelphia
What more practical activity for anti-tubercular societies than a campaign for open window schoolrooms? These fortify children against disease and teach parents through the children the value of fresh air in living rooms and sleeping rooms. Is it not better to prevent disease than to treat it after it has been acquired?
As parents realize more and more the value of fresh air there is a growing demand for the teaching of their children in open window schoolrooms. It is a logical process of reasoning, easily understood, that since fresh air has been found a boon to invalids and sickly children it is quite as important to supply an abundance of it to well children in order that they may retain their health and develop normally.
Almost any one on reflection will be impressed with the futility of expecting a maximum progression when children are housed in overheated rooms, with little or no moisture, compelled to sit in uncomfortable positions and perform great tasks. Such children, passing on dismissal into the cool, moist atmosphere outside the building, have the respiratory mucous membrane suddenly chilled. Not so with children taught in rooms with open windows, breathing a mixture of air and moisture at the temperature and quality of the outside atmosphere.
The influence of cold air creates a desire for exercise—a natural physiological demand to excite circulation. In accord with this requirement exercises of short duration should be given at frequent intervals between lesson periods, but never violent enough to cause perspiration. Such exercises require ample floor space, and this is secured without obstruction by the use of movable desks, which the children themselves can easily slide to the sides of the classroom and back again after the drill without noise or confusion.
It was found in Philadelphia at the Bach school last year that children taught all through the winter in rooms with windows wide open did better work and were more regular in attendance, because free from sickness, than other children of the regularly warmed-air rooms, and they gained in weight in the average more than two pounds for one each three months. Careful records were kept.
Fire Drills are of Great Value

Fire Drills are of Great Value By JONATHAN GERRY, Chicago
One of the calls to which the human mind responds most promptly is that of self-preservation. In answering this call, however, it sometimes happens that persons take the action least likely to save themselves. Thus, an alarm of fire often breeds a panic, resulting in scores of deaths. A factory or theater or other crowd goes compositely and temporarily insane under such conditions.
This curious working of the human mind serves to emphasize the value of well-conducted fire drills and similar precautions against panic. An illustration of it was given the other day when a twelve-story building in downtown Chicago, devoted to the manufacture of clothing, was emptied of its 1,800 workers in less than fifteen minutes.
A false alarm of fire had been sounded. There was nothing resembling a panic in the orderly way in which they left the building. This is the more remarkable because so large a number of them were foreigners, prone to yield to excitement under such circumstances. That none was injured is due to the fact that their careful training in what to do and what not to do when the fire gong sounds overcame any inclination toward stampeding.
Somewhat similar training is being extended to that part of the public, at least, which frequents theaters. In New York, by warnings on programmes and otherwise, people are being taught to prepare their minds against panic by locating the nearest exit and by remembering not to bolt if an alarm sounded.
The New York fire commissioner is also requiring fire drills of theater employees to avert possible panics and it is even suggested that audiences be subjected to similar drills.
All reasonable precautions that train the human mind to restraint and coolhess in emergencies ought to be encouraged everywhere.
I have watched the passing show for fifty years, and I see strange, unaccountable things, reversions to savagery and self-torture and I wonder what it all means. The normal foot re
Strong Protest Against Many Modern Things
By H. W. LEONARD, Milwaukee, Wis.
requires a straight last shoe and the shoe of today doesn't fit anyone. The clothes don't fit. The shoulders are boxed in so that if you raise the arms the collar lifts up to the top of your head; the top button has dropped to the belt line, and the average coat looks like a man's vest on a ten-year-old boy; neckties of a thousand colors; peg-top pants with cuffs on—to take them off you have to unscrew your feet; heels three inches high with rubber lifts on and a prehensile toe to fit a monkey.
Another thing is the universal use of the tremolo or shake of the voice in singing, that vulgar defiance of the laws of harmony.
These things are significant and all go together. You hear this billy-goat, nanny-goat affection everywhere, from the vaudeville theaters to the choir of a church.
When people stand up in front of me and make a noise like a cross between a billy goat's bleat, a yowl and a yodel, I feel like throwing a book at them. I feel lonesome, though.
About the only protest I find against this freak is in a dictionary of music. The language is almost as strong as mine would be if I dared to write it.

Objection to Doctors With Beards
By HORATIO S. BREWER, Chicago
Is it not a fact that all men who die suddenly of apoplexy and so-called heart failure are close shaven, and is it not a matter of history that the oldest men, those who passed the "span of life" and lived to great age were hirsutely adorned?
As a physician of nearly fifty years' experience I will agree to eat all the microbes and germs that those princes of surgeons, Drs. Murphy and Evans, acquire, and to call for more.
Have we not enough scares and frights to endure? Shall we finally have to go unclad, and in this climate, for fear some frisky microbe will get our goat?
Why not get rid of some of this nightmare about germs and microbes? Fear and apprehension give us a lot of trouble.
It seems to me God knew what he was doing when he created man with a beard. But I am an old fogy

Rocky Mountain Athletic Ass'n.
Rocky Mountain Athletic Ass'n.
It is a tribute to the officers and members of the Rocky Mountain Athletic Association, of Denver, Colorado, that in a city noted the world over for its hospitality, it has been accorded first honor as a place of social amusement and relaxation. Colorado is the Switzerland of Aperica. Its snow-clad hills and verdant valleys, its charming resorts, its rugged beauty are famous the world over. Denver, its capital, is one of the most beautiful cities in America. Matchless in climate, situated where first the eternal snowy hills rear their snowy tops to the heavens, it has long been the mecca of visitors. Its people have been well trained in hospitality, and of that training the Rocky Mountain Athletic Association is the highest expression.
In offering to the public this set of interior views of its home, the Board of Directors of the Association have only one regret, that they cannot reproduce in black and white the cordial good fellowship that exists among the members, and the hearty welcome which is accorded visitors. The limitations of the camera are understood, so that they will convey an idea of the building and accommodations, but words cannot take the place of the handshake, the smile and friendly greeting. Therefore the Association extends to all men of good character a cordial invitation to visit the Association quarters while in Denver, and assures them that their inspection is no intrusion, but, on the other hand, will give it an opportunity for doing for them the duty which Denver lays upon its citizens.
It is the spirit of good fellowship that has made the Rocky Mountain Athletic Association a factor in Denver life, though it is only a year and a half old, and it has occupied its present quarters, 2014 Champa street, since April, 1910. In that time it has grown to 900 members, a part of whom are non-residents, being accorded the privileges of the Association under the provisions of the by-laws relative to non-resident members.
It is not the desire to burden you with facts and figures, but to entertain you—on paper now, and in the hope that some day we may entertain you in person. Therefore let's make an inspection of the Association quarters. The Rocky Mountain Athletic Association is housed in a twenty-room two-story brick building situated at 2014 Champa street, Denver, Colorado, on a plot of ground 50x125 feet, one block from the new postoffice now building. In preparation for its occupancy this building was remodeled a year ago.
BENCHROOM
The pool and billiard room is high class. To those who have never played upon the famous Wellington tables with Monarch cushions, a game upon these tables would be a revelation. The equipment is entirely new, with special attendants and instructors at your service.

The Los Angeles police continued their investigation of the killing of Daniel de Villiers, the Boer war veteran who was shot by Roy L. Glover, a Texas land agent, while he was attempting to see the former Mrs. de Villiers.

Luxurious Wrap for Cold Weather
Underwood & Underwood
ONE of the full, short coats trimmed with fur which are unlike those of any previous season and immensely successful now, is shown in the picture. A muff of the fur used for a border about the bottom of the coat and appearing in the collar is worn with coats of this kind.
Costly broadtail fur is used in the body of this luxurious wrap, and Fitch fur trims it. Few wraps of broadtail are worn, in deference to a sentiment which has grown up against it. The handsomest plushes make up into wraps quite as beautiful, and are furnished with the same expensive furs in borders and muffs.
The heavier furs will not answer for wraps of this kind. Natural and dyed squirrel and ermine are used, and sealskin is ideal for ample garments which must not be too heavy. Instead of furs, handsome plushes are used for garments which are to be within a reasonable cost. These plushes in the best grades are high priced fabrics, but at that, much less costly than fur. There are cheaper grades that will look well and outlast the season. For wraps and outside garments nothing is more fashionable and more satisfactory than the plush imitations of fur, which are often so close in appearance to the original as to deceive the average eye.
The furs most favored for trimming coats are martin, skunk, civet cat, fitch and fox. These are the moderately long haired furs. Mink and sable and ermine (all growing higher in price constantly) are also employed. All furs are used in wide and narrow band-
HIGH COIFFURE PROMISES TO BE LEADING STYLE
HATLESS ladies at the horse show in New York appeared to be indulging in a go-as-you-please style of hair dressing. But colfuries were well taken care of. Waves and small curls reappeared, and there was a plentiful showing of high coiffures. Among
these were a few extremely high and really very pretty new ideas.
Changes are coming and, in fact, nave arrived, but no definite style has established itself as a universal favorite yet. The liking for covering the top of the ear remains. But hair which has been encroaching upon the face, over the cheeks, is no longer good style.
ings, and in trimmings for costume and millinery. Sleeves in the new wraps are very roomy—the kimono and bat-wing styles prevailing. There is no trouble about crushing the bodice under fur wraps, because of the light weight of furs used in the body of the wraps and there are ample sleeves and arms eyes.
The hat worn with this pretty coat is of black velvet, one of few having a blocked crown. The trimming is a generous, fan-shaped spray of soft white feathers. There is an attractive and novel bag carried for the accommodation of the various belongings which vanity fair must needs have near at all times. The coin purse, handkerchief, powder puff, etc., placed in small compartments on the inside, do not distort the shape of this plain and elegant accessory. It is of knitted silk finished with silver rings and silver flagrege monogram, and is carried by a silk cord.
Good furs, in garments or in trim mings, amount to a good investment if well cared for. It is not likely that the cost will grow less; all the chances are that it will increase for several years. But furs must be cared for. The industrious moth will succeed in finding them when one thinks he is well shut out. Cold stor age is therefore good for furs, but they may be protected by placing them in paper bags with moth balls, and in cedar chests. They should be examined occasionally, hung in the sun and beaten. The sunlight is death to moths.
JULIA BOTTOMLEY.
The chances are that in the many new coifures which have been designed for this season the ears will be wholly or partly covered. Light fringes over the forehead, middle and side parts, hair coiled high or low, but always waved, and little, short, full curls are in evidence everywhere. For popularity the high coifure promises to be the winner in the race for favor.
Much depends upon the styles in millinery which are favored for spring. For evening wear, and especially where hats are removed, or not worn at all, Miladi may wave and curl and coil and pile up her crowning glory to her heart's content. Also her coiffure ornament or evening head dress may be as elaborate as any of which we have a history. Some of those designed for wear in Paris are said to be twenty-eight inches in height, which is something over two feet, you know But the Parisiennes have a certain grace in carrying off extremes which is peculiar to them, their stock-in-trade for setting styles before the rest of the world. They are to be followed at a conservative distance.
