PATRONIZE MERCHANTS WHO ADV. IN THE PEOPLE'S PAPER THE COLORADO STATESMAN THE JOURNAL OF THE WEST. LABOR SHALL BE FREE RAGE COUNTRY PARTY VOL. XX. DENVER COLORADO SATURDAY, JANUARY 3, 1914 NO 18 Last Thursday was the beginning of the new year, 1914. There is nothing important in the beginning or ending of a new year, the occasion only serves for a general review of human experiences and human achievements. In the general plan of the universe, time goes on, marked only by days and seasons, all other chronology being history and mark their commercial intercourse. We live apparently without regard for time, but with every regard for worldly conditions, and thus the life and the acts of every human being are just as important to the general purposes of the world as those of any other human being. This is why thoughtful men and women, the advisers of humanity, grow serious and urge every mortal to spend his life always for the best. Among the millions and millions of created beings, an individual seems to be an insignificant part, but after all he is an actual and considerable part of the whole, and must leave some mark upon the conditions into which he was born. Life must be purposeful and intended for improvement. Everything about us denotes that it is not for pastime or waste. The paths of individuals, races or nations should be ever upward. The world's history becomes higher and better. More than one hundred years ago, when the nineteenth century began, the Negro race in America was in slavery and hardly dreamed of the possibility of emancipation. At the close of the century slavery was almost a tradition, and by far the greater portion of the race knows of its baneful curse only through the chronicles of history, the strange accounts of the elder people, or the marks and scars of lowly conditions which the dread institution left behind. In the fifty years that have passed since emancipation a new Negro race has come upon the plane of action, along with a new Caucasian race, and to us all the present is far removed from the generation gone before. But the Negro of the slavery day was made of good stuff or else we would not have made the improvement which we know we have made. ```markdown ``` And just so upon all depends the strength, the worth and the ability of the American Negro of the present century and the distant future, and none can tell but that we may influence the future of the Negro race throughout the world. In the past fifty years, to a great extent, we have merely drifted with the tide of human progress. But human races do not drift far or long in this world. Oblivion soon overtakes those who do not exert themselves and become a potent force for good in the world's civilization, whether individuals, races or nations. In the next fifty years the Negro is called upon to do a most important work. Our general conditions at present are humble and lowly, and not even medium in races in America who are in touch with the tide of human progress. By self-assertion and self-improvement we are now being called upon to make the future bright and secure. Many recent events plainly indicate that we are being left entirely to our own responsibility, and that we shall rise or fall upon the exercise of our own genius. We are face to face with the most trying demands of the world's stern realities and the Negro's highest and most sober qualities are now called upon to meet the conditions through which we must pass. Indolence and vice are the two greatest dangers that menace us. With them overcome, we have qualities and virtues to compete with the balance of humanity. We are slowly gaining a foothold in the industrial and commercial world. Negro brains and Negro genius are beginning to indicate the glorious possibilities of a vast unsuppressable future in the world of letters and art. We have Negro soldiers of glorious promise. But with all of our prospects, we are confronted and burdened with a racial prejudice that must be beaten down and overcome. It feeds upon our vices and glories in our indolence, but every high and noble achievement of ours is a trust at its most vital parts. To the Negroes of America we would say that the most vital duty of the coming year and the present hour is an unending crusade against our own great weaknesses, for with them removed our future successes cannot be dimmed or stayed. Let vice and crime and indolence and inaction and every form of worthlessness existent among us be no longer spared because of our sorry past or for any other reason, but let the good of our race and the glory of God start us and keep us upon a course that shall strengthen and increase our virtues until the Negro shall DENVER COLORADO SATURDAY.

COLORED LABOR IS COMPLIMENTED Lafayetteville, N. C., Dec. 20. Ten of the Ashley and Baily silk mills were recently put up at auction and sold. The home office of these mills is located in Paterson, N. J. There are five plants in New Jersey, four in Pennsylvania and one in Fayetteville. Some remarkable statements about the colored labor employed in the local mill here have been made by the owners, which puts the Negro laborer in a most favorable light. In complimenting the Negro one of the proprietors declared: "It can be truthfully said of the labor at the Fayetteville mill that it is better bred, better behaved, more industrious, more elastic and with all of this it is more cleanly." This statement was made in a comparison with labor in other parts of the State. There are between four hundred and five hundred colored boys and girls employed in the mill at Fayetteville. The physician who has charge of the medical service says that with the exception of two vaccinations no other medical attention has been necessary for months. Furthermore the mill has been practically free from accidents, which exceptional record speaks well of the skill of the Negro laborers. In various sections of the State silk and cotton mills are being erected where skilled colored labor will be used. MANY ATTEND FUNERAL OF MAJ JNO, BUCKNER Chicago, Ill, Dec. 23.—The funeral of Maj. John C. Buckner, who died Wednesday, December 17, at his residence, 3638 South Dearborn street, was held Sunday at the 7th Regiment Armory and was largely attended by friends and members of the 7th Regiment. Fully 10,000 people were present at the services. It was the largest funeral of a colored citizen that has ever taken place in Illinois and attended by more honorable and distinguished men. The arrangements were in charge Oscar DePriest, his life-long friend and former County Commissioner. The services were in charge of the Odd Fellows, the deceased having been a member of the Golden Fleece Lodge. Congressman Martin B. Madden, who was a personal friend of the deceased, came from Washington to attend the funeral and to deliver an eulogy. He was an honorary pallbearer. The deceased was prominent in civic and philanthropic work. He was a member of the Forty-first and Forty-second Illinois House of Representatives. At the time of his death he was a deputy collector of Internal Revenue for the United States Government. As chief of the Fraternal Bureau under the Illinois Emancipation Commission, he threw his whole heart and soul into the work. His last public act was a journey in the interest of this commission, paying an official visit to the Emancipation Exposition in the City of New York. RED CANDY AND VERMIFUGE (Buffalo, N. Y., Commercial) Booker T. Washington writes in the November World's Work: "At one time when I was a young boy working in the coal mines of West Virginia, I came out of the mine after a hard day's work feeling tired, sick and discouraged. A neighbor, wishing to cheer me up and make me feel better, offered me a large red stick of candy. That candy looked good to me and I took it eagerly. My mother, who knew my condition and my needs, told me that it was not candy that I needed, but a good dose of vermifuge, which is about the worst tasting and smelling medicine, I firmly believe, that was ever concocted. However, it was in general use in those days for almost every real and imaginary ailment. In fact, vermifuge was about the only medicine on sale at that time in the coal mining districts of West Virginia. Contrary to my mother's advice I took the candy and put the vermifuge aside. The next day I came out of the coal mine feeling no better, and the next day I was still worse. Finally I decided to follow the advice of mother and take my medicine. So I threw back my head and held my nose while my mother forced the nasty stuff down with a large spoon. The next day, however, I felt fine Now in my experience in working with my race I found that the Negro meets with two classes of advisors each of which is equally well-meaning and kindly disposed. One class of advisers hands him the red candy and the other offers the vermifuge Very often it has been a hard task for me to make certain kinds of colored people see that it is the vermifuge the race needs rather than the candy. Still the Negro is learning this lesson, and nothing gives me more genuine satisfaction at the present time than to note that the great masses of my race in every part of the country are willing to take the vermifuge in place of the red candy. Rise Of Negro Race Forecast Minneapolis, Minn., Dec. 29. Social conditions in the United States are tending to develop in the Negro a racial consciousness and to organize a Negro nationality, declared Robert F. Park, professor of sociology at the University of Chicago, today before the American Sociological Society, which is meeting here jointly with the American Economic association. Professor Park spoke on "Racial Assimilation Within Secondary Groups." "The nationalizing tendency among the Negroes of this country is the result of the white man's ostracism of his black brother," Professor Park said. He criticised the public utterances of Senator Vardaman of Mississippi and Governor Blease of South Carolina, STATE HAS DUTY "A race which has attained the character of a nationality may still retain its loyalty to the state of which it is a part, but only insofar as that state incorporates, as an integral part of its organization, the practical interests, the aspirations and the ideals of that nationality. "In the South, the race seems to be tending in the direction of a biracial organization of society in which the Negro is gradually gaining a limited autonomy. "It is hard to estimate the net effect of the white man's isolation of the Negro. One of the most important effects has been to establish a common interest among all the different colors and classes of the race. This sense of solidarity has grown up gradually with the organization of the Negro people. "It is stronger in the South where segregation is more complete than it is in the North, where, twenty years ago, it would have been safe to say that it did not exist. Gradually, imperceptibly, within the larger world of the white man, a smaller world, the world of the black man, is silently taking form. OLD SPIRIT EXISTS "No doubt kindly relations between the individual members of the races do exist in the South, and to an extent not known in the North. As a rule, it will be found that these kindly relations had their origin in slavery. The men who have given the tone to political discussion in the Southern states in recent years are men who did not own slaves." At a business meeting the foll- NO 18 ing officers were elected: President—Edward Rose, University of Wisconsin. First vice president—George E. Vincent, president of the University of Minnesota. Second vice president—George E. Howard, University of Nebraska. Members of the executive committee—E. T. Devine, Columbia university; and J. M. Gillette, University of North Dakota. Washington Dec., 15.—The contest between the white and Negro lodges of Knights of Pythias in Tennessee over the use of the organization name came to a close today when the white lodges informed the supreme court that their contention that a decision in the Tennessee courts gave them exclusive right to use the name was erroneous. Their action was based propably upon a decision of the supreme court last year in a contest between white and Negro lodges in Georgia. Strange Human Foods The Chinese get a very palatable food from the chrysalis of the silk worm. The poor remove the envelope, broll the chrysalis and eat it with salt and pepper. In the homes of wealth, however, the chrysalis is fried in lard, butter or oil, and mixed with the yolk of an egg. But the strangest of all food is the larvae of a certain fly, common in California and known as the Ephydra. The files are washed on the shore in windrows and can be collected in bushel baskets. The Indians gather them, dry them and grow fat on them. "Robber Dollar Sale." A "rubber dollar sale" was the title of a store's recent announcement intended to emphasize the idea that during the month a dollar could be stretched to cover more than its real value, according to the Clothier and Furnisher. To give forceful illustration, ten one-dollar bills were attached to the placard and were so folded that the figure one showed only on the bill at each end, so that at first glance the group looked like a much stretched single dollar. Patriotic German Association. In Germany there is a national association called the Bund Heimatshutz, formed for protecting and preserving the natural beauty of the German fatherland, together with its historic and artistic buildings, cities, monuments, etc., also to unite the efforts being made by various local and state organizations.

Western Newspaper Union News Service. Florence, Colo—Ernest W. Farmer, a trackwalker for the Santa Fé rail- road, was found dead on the tracks by Charles Thomas, the day man, who was on his way to relieve Farmer. Farmer had been shot in the neck with a shotgun, and evidently had been ambushed. Since the bridge on the road to the Radiant coal mine was repaired, after having burned down several weeks ago, tWo men have been kept on duty at night guarding it. George Libby, Farmer's partner, was shot at while sitting in a little cabin near the bridge. Libby returned the fire, and fell over an embankment, breaking his arm, The fact that he fell is believed to have saved his life, his assailant evidently thinking Libby had been killed also. Farmer was thirty-nine years old, and lived at Colorado Springs, where he was a yard watchman for the Santa Fé prior to coming here to take up duty at the bridge. Libby says he did not see the man who fired at him, but heard his yoice. He fired in the direction of the voice. He says the man spoke good English. Sheriff William Newcomb and Spe cial Officer O'Leary of the Santa Fé were on the ground investigating the affair, but so far no clew has been found. ~ The Radiant mine is working non- union men, and all the coal from the mine has to come over the bridge where the iilling occurred. Governor Ammons has ordered a full investigation by the civil and mill- tary authorities of the incident.

We don't buy here; we don't buckle down to buy don't keep the children in school to the trades or occupation; but we are gradually learn to do, and we are beginning to. They say that the Negro is making progress. Whenever we get time to stop to look over conditions, it really looks that way. Sometimes we don't see things moving at a gait we think they ought to move at, but from where we started to where we are at the beginning of 1914 is a good long jump. We don't buy homes as fast as we ought to buy them; we don't buckle down to business quite as hard as we might; we don't keep the children in school long enough to pay as much attention to the trades or occupations we want them to follow as we should; but we are gradually learning, by dear experience, what we ought to do, and we are beginning to do it. We surely are not going back. HOW TO BE GOOD. If you did not make a good resi fact need not necessarily restrain yea the other three hundred and sixty-wrong in too many ways to hope to resolution.

For no reason whatever sleep would suddenly desert him and when it abandoned Kellinger it abandoned the rest of the family, meaning Mrs. Kellinger and the bulldog. When Mrs. Kellinger would announce sadly to their acquaintances that Tom had begun waking up at one o'clock and staying awake till six or not going to sleep at all until half-past-three it was exactly as tragic as though she was breaking the news that he had fallen a victim to the suicide habit or had begun murdering people again after a short vacation. Those to whom she spoke always had an unease feeling that they ought to send flowers or something. Kellinger absolutely refused to go to the doctor about it. He said the physician would merely ask him if he had embezzled any trust funds or had anything else on his conscience, and would appear annoyed because he hadn't. "It's just nerves," Kellinger would say in martyred tones. "I wake up and then I begin thinking and I can't stop. I worry about what would happen if ten years from now a long, hard winter should set in and I didn't have any work. Then there is Uncle Dave, who has just invested all his money in a gold mine, and what if he should lose it. And think of the sufferings of the people over there in the Balkan regions during this cruel war!" "If Tom didn't have such an absurdly tender heart!" Mrs. Kellinger would sigh proudly. That is, she sighed proudly till the sleepless streak had continued for some time, and then she grew peevish from lack of slumber. At first she would read aloud to Kellinger or would arise and, descending to the kitchen, would concoct unholy two o'clock lunches of fried egg sandwiches to lull him to sleep. Later on she took to making remonstrances. Following these heart to heart talks, Kellinger gave up coffee and cigars and once in a while managed to sleep the night through, but more often he didn't. "If you were twins, now," Mrs. Kellinger murmured reproachfully one night at three o'clock at Kellinger, who sat propped up sociably against the bedpost with the reading light on full blast. "I suppose I shouldn't mind being awake like this. I'd expect it But I don't mind telling you secretly that I'm (yawn) getting aw-aw (yawn) fully tired of it! I'm just dead for sleep!" "Are you sleepy, dear?" Kellinger asked, in hurt tones. "What wouldn't I give to feel that way!" Whereupon Mrs. Kellinger felt ashamed of her desire to sleep and read aloud from "The Theory of Hot Water Heating" until she toppled over, sound asleep. Kellinger really suffered. He said if it kept up much longer he would go crazy, he knew. All the Kellingers' friends were intensely interested in the situation. By their advice Kellinger drank hot milk before retiring, drank cold milk, put a hot water bag under his head and then an ice bag, stood on his head and walked on his hands, breathed in six times and out six times, crossed his fingers and counted jumping sheep. When they were out in the evening Mrs. Kellinger had the habit of watching her husband nervously, and if his eyelid twitched she would grab the person next to her and moan: "Tom is going to have another sleepless night!" she would say. "He is getting the blinks! Poor man! I don't know what is going to become of him! Isn't it awful! Dearie!" to the afflicted one, "sit over here where you won't get the cigar smoke—it makes you nervous, I know!" All of this happened before the arrival of Mrs. Shandle, who had known Kellinger at the disillusionizing age of ten, and had never outgrown the habit. The first time she was present at one of these sad exhibitions she transfixed the Kellingers with a disgusted glance and spoke her mind. "Stuff and nonsense, Tommy Kellinger!" said she. "I never heard of such tomfoolery! I never saw a person put on the airs you do! Are you any better than any one else that you can't sleep as the rest of us do? You say that your life is without reproach, and if it is there's no excuse for your not sleeping. The idea! Smoke that cigar and drink that cup of coffee and go home and go to bed and go to sleep! You're a perfect goose! I think the trouble is that your head is only big enough for one idea at a time, and you've grown attached to this sleepless idea and hate to tell it to move on. I'm ashamed of you! And your wife is an easy mark!" "I think she is horribly rude!" Mrs. Kellinger kept saying all the way home. "She doesn't understand your sensitive nature at all!" "Huh?" queried Kellinger—and yawned. Whereupon he went to sleep when his head touched the pillow and Mrs. Kellinger had to set the bulldog loose on him in the morning to get him up at all. That ended Kellinger's insomnia. Exchanged. The stealthy burglar took the diamond set clock off the mantel and replaced it with a sixty-cent timepiece, so that the sleeping owner would not miss the familiar tick. "How times have changed," murmured the burglar as he crept out into the cold. Advertising has no value unless it is founded on truth. Every statement we make is absolutely true.

How Planets Came Into Being From the striking relation of planetary motions, a British scientist has made the deductions that the planets grew out of scattered material each bringing the next into being by perturbation, with Jupiter as the starting point, and the only planet with an original nucleus. From the law of evolution worked out, it is concluded that the nearest planet beyond Neptune should be 47.5 as far from the sun as the earth, and comparable with Neptune in size. Spineless.

Here's an "Ad." "Cook, for elderly gentleman, with some experience, wanted at once." These elderly gentleman undoubtedly do have experience. Cooks, beware. —The Tatler. Simple Pleasures. To become again more joyous, more childlike, more naive than we are, to look into the world with clear eyes and to consign to the devil the problemmatical chimeras behind which only too often hides the unclean turmoil of the market place, chimeras which have made us unhappy, slavish and uncertain—that would do us all good.—Boston Transcript. Barber's Announcement In the window of an eastern barber's shop has been placed this quaint announcement to the public: "I choose my assistants for their skill with the razor and scissors, not for their conversational powers." Slaughter of Deer in California Thirty thousand deer die in California each year, the victims of hunters and preying animals, according to a report issued by the state fish and game commission. Of this number about 10,000 are killed by hunters. COOKING TERMS MADE PLAIN Even Experienced Housewife May Find Some Explanations Here of Value to Her. Different terms are properly used for different methods of combining ingredients in cooking, as any one who has handled a cook book very much must know. But everyone who has tried to cook does not know just what these various terms signify. Stirring is one thing, beating is another, folding and cutting are yet others—that, we all know. But what are they? Stirring is effected with a circular motion, widening from the center. That is the technical description. Beating is the operation which closes air in the ingredients beaten. This can be done in any way that separates the particles of the ingredients one from another and so lets in the air. Folding is the term applied to the motion which prevents the air already inclosed from escaping and at the same time mixes the ingredients concerned. It is this motion which must be used when whipped cream, beaten egg whites and other light and beaten ingerdients are mixed together or with more solid masses. Cutting is the lightest sort of mixing—hardly mixing at all. Shortening is sometimes cut into flour with a knife. But the shortening and flour cannot be mixed completely by cutting. Keep the meaning of these terms in mind when you cook according to a recipe. Remember that an ordinary cake you stir and beat. An omelet you beat and fold, and you do the same thing to a sponge cake. BEWARE OF TOO MUCH SALT Oversupply in Sauerkraut Will Prevent Proper Souring and So Spoll the Quantity Put Up. There are two essentials which must be observed in making sauerkraut. First it must be remembered that if too much salt is used, the kraut will not sour as it should, and the quality will be impaired. Again, some salt must be used in order to preserve the cabbage till it sours sufficiently to preserve itself. When kraut gets sour it is like pickles, and there will be no further decay. To make the best kraut, a slicer should be used, though it may be sliced with a knife, coarse or fine, as suits your taste. Use a clean barrel or jar, put in a layer of cabbage cut fine, then a little salt, using not more than a quart of salt to a 40-gallon barrel of kraut. If you like the flavor add a little dill-seed or caraway. When the vessel is full, fit a clean board inside, and weight with a clean stone, never a piece of iron. If your cabbage is early, and going to waste while it is yet warm, make the kraut and keep in a cool cellar. This early kraut will rot a little or top. Remove this every few days, and wash off the inside of the barrel and weight, with warm water, to remove the germs of decay. When Beats Prove Tough When Beets Prove Tough. Late in the winter old beets are so tough and pithy as to be unpleasant besides which objection there is the further one of their taking so long to cook until approximately tender. A new way of preparing them may prove a welcome change, as well as overcoming these objections. After boiling the beets, as usual, and removing the skin, pass them through the food chopper, then return to the fire to reheat, adding seasoning of butter, salt and pepper. Every particle of the vegetable will then be tender, eatable and well flavored. Stuffed Onions. Stuffed onions give the paper bag enthusiast an opportunity to try a new dish. Parboil onions for 15 minutes Drain and scoop out half the onion Chop this and mix with sausage or ground meat (either raw or cooked). Season to taste and put back in the onion.

Denver 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 honors as a place of social amusement and relaxation. Colorado is the Switzerland of America. 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. 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. CEEH SHOE REPAIRING WALTER CAMBERS 1023 Eighteenth St SUMMARY OF MORE IMPORTANT HAPPENINGS THAT HAVE MARKED 1913. NO TERRIBLE CATASTROPHES Famous Financiers and Churchmen Taken by Death—Rapid and Start- ling Developments in Mexico—Pan- ama Canal Brought Near Comple- sion. Lec Mb barat yy Phere) ged gates arth Nat tunate one for the world in general. It was not marked by any great catas- trophe, such as the San Francisco earthquake or the Titanic disaster; it saw the end of the wars in the Bal- kans, it witnessed the inauguration of a Democratic president In the United States, followed by genuine tariff re duction without financial panic. ‘The death roll for the past year has hit the financial world rather hard, in- cluding such notable figures as J. P. Morgan, Henry M. Flagler and James R. Keene. The Roman Catholic church also lost two of its most yen- erable cardinals, Oreglia, dean of the sacred college, and Rampolla, once secretary at the Vatican and who would have been pope instead of Pius X had not the emperor of Austria yot- ed against him In the United States political de- velopments have been extremely in- teresting, but not startling. Every- thing seems to have gone the way of the Democrats. Democratic victories were won last November in New York city, the state of New Jersey and state of Massachusetts. Congress has passed the currency bill, and the bank- ing Interests of the country are ad- justing themselves to it. Doings in Mexico. South of the Rio Grande develop- ments have been startling and rapid. ‘The year 1913 saw in Mexico the as- sassination of President Francisco Ma- dero, Vice-President Pino Suarez and Gustavo Madero, brother of the presi. dent, the usurpation of the presidency by Gen. Victoriano Huerta, boosted into that position by General Felix Diaz, Then came the rupture between Diaz and Huerta, with the practical banishment of Diaz, Later in 1913 came the rise of Venustiano Carranza, leader of the constitutionalists in the north of Mexico, with the result that the powerful northern states of Mex- {co are now under his control. Scarce- ly had Carranza become famous than Francisco “Pancho” Villa, former ban- dit, with a price on his head, leaped into the limelight as a rebel leader serving Carranza, and {t is now ques: tioned whether Carranza or Villa is the stronger in the leadership of the constitutlonalist forces. In its relations with Mexico the United States has stood firm. Karly in his administration President Wilson announced his determination to with- hold recognition from the Huerta ad- ministration, and although much pressure has been brought to bear, the president has refused to change his attitude. Efforts have been made to induce Huerta to retire and allow a fair and honest election, without re- sult. Today the United States has a heavy armed force at the border and an impressive array of battleships off the coast. Assassinations of the Year. Barring Mexico's barbarous achieve- ments, there have been few assassina- tions In countries generally recognized as being civilized. George I, king of Greece, was assassinated by a mad anarchist in Salonika, March 18. In Turkey the commander-in-chlef of the Ottoman forces in the Balkan wars, Bnver Bey, was slain on February 17. This was followed soon after by the assassination of Nazim Pasha, Turkish premier. Turkey and Mexico appear to have been contending with each other for honors in the line of assas- sination, with Mexico slightly in the lead, European affairs have gone along rather as usual, barring a few extra startling outbursts by suffragists in England, such as the sensational sul- cide of the young suffragette who threw herself before the king’s horse in the derby and was killed. Politt- cally England has been in a furor, which, however, Is nothing out of the ordinary. The year has seen the very remarkable “rebellion” of Ulster, un- der the direction of Sir Edward Car- son, and the organization of an “army” of Ulstermen to resist enforcement of the home rule bill should It pass par- Mament. England has also had its share of labor troubles, There have been large strikes at home and in Ireland, not: ably the Dublin riots, led by Jim Lar- ~ kin. All of the Buropean powers have gone on as heretofore in the construc: tion of battleships, and the “armed camp” policies of Germany, England, France and Russia are stronger than ever, possibly made so by the Balkan wars, Antiquity of Spectacles. The ordinary magnifying spectacles with convex lenses came into use some time near the end of the thirteenth century. Their invention is generally attributed to two Italians, Armati and Spina. As a matter of fact at this time old people in Germany were wear- ing glasses. According to G. H, Oll- ver, writing in the British Medical Journal, the first use of concave lenses was of much later date—probably not until the middle of the sixteenth cen- tury. It appears that at first the doc- In the Far Eact. death of the Mikado and the succes- sion of his son and the anti-American demonstrations and riots as a result of the adoption of the anti-allen land- owning law in California, In the realm of science and explora- tion there have been but few develop- ments that could positively be desig- nated as history-creating. The discovery of the south pole and the disaster to the Scott, expedition both occurred in 1912, although the fate of Captain Scott was not made known to the world until 1913. Dr. Fredrich Franz Friedmann, discover- er of a “cure” for tuberculosis, made his appearance in 1913, but the value of Dr. Friedmann’s “cure,” and other “cures” for that dread disease an- nounced at about the same time, are very much open to doubt. Great strides have undoubtedly been made in the treatment of cancer, but no positive cure has yet been discovered, although much has been learned about the value of radium. Aviation 1s progressing rapidly. Much attention to aeronautics has been paid by the varlous European governments from a military stand- point, but no means of making aero- planing anywhere near safe have yet been discovered. France has organized and trained a military aviation corps that would unquestionably be of great value in case of war, and Germany has devoted much time and money to dirigible ballooning. The United States has spent some $50,000 during the year in military experiments in aviation, ‘The number of deaths resulting from aviation has not been especially large. Aviators have died, just as aviators died in 1912, and Germany suffered a number of disastrous accidents to Zep- pelin dirigible balloons. Many of the accidents of aeroplanes resulted from fancy exhibition flying and military experiments. The year 1913 saw the first aeroplane flight over the Panama canal, On the Panama Canal. In Panama great developments have taken place. October 10 last saw the dynamiting of Gamboa dike, being the removal of practically the last serious obstruction in the big ditch. The ca- nal is now almost completed, so far as a trans-continental waterway is con- cerned, although not yet prepared for the passage of steamers from ocean to ocean. Work has also been begun on the buildings and grounds for the great Panama-Pacific International exposi- tion, to be held in San Francisco in 1915, as a celebration of the formal opening of the Panama canal. New York state furnished the most sensational bit of local politics of the year in the impeachment and removal of Goy. William Sulzer, followed by Sulzer's nomination by Progressives and election to the state assembly. In the world of sports the United States still stands supreme. In addi- tion to humbling the British polo cup oliallengerg) tie, Unltga states further shocked Johnny Bull when Francis Ouimet, the youthful golf wonder, walked away from the English experts in the national open golf championship at Brookline, Mass. and by the win- ning of the international Davis tennis cup. America’s supremacy in sports was further recognized during the year when King Gustave of Sweden pre- sented the American athletes with the medals and trophies won at the Olym- ple games in Stockholm in 1912. ‘The sporting world suffered a shock, how- ever, when {t was learned that “Jim” Thorpe, the famous Carlisle Indian athlete really belonged in the classt- fication of “professional.” He volun- tarily renounced the trophies he had won as an amateur in the Olympic games, Here are the leading events of the year: Disasters, Fires, Floods.

Presidio, Tex., Jan, 2—The north- ern division of the Mexican federal army at Ojinaga, Mexico, with its eleven generals, other officers and about 4,000 soldicrs, after a merciless three days" attack by Genoral Ortega’s 6,000 rebels, began flecing in disorder across the riyer into tne United States. Several hundred armed stragglers crossed, and about 1,500 are now clus- tered on the Mexican bank of the Rio Grande. The ending of the Ojinaga battle, at- tended by the most horrifying sce: of devd and wounded soldiers wit- nessed on the border in the present rev- olution, was declared to have in store only one possible result. the momen- tarily-expected flight of the whole fed- eral army to American soil. With a line of straggling woundee at the border to indicate the extent ot the carnage, and deserters already ap- pearing in numbers, Major M. N. Me- Namee, commanding the border pa- trol, made every plan in anticipation of the flight. Less than 500 cavalrymen, mostly of the Fifteenth cavalry, form the pa- trol here, but they are deemed by offi- cials sufficient to handle the situation. “I expect at any time during the fight that the greater part of the fed- eral army. possibly 2,000 or 3,000, may be forced across the river. I have made dispositions to disarm and hold them, If this takes place,” was the message which Major McNamee sent out. Scores of uninjured federal desert- ers came to the river and, in defiance of the American patrol, crossed; with their arms. Ali these were disarmed and forced tack to the Mexican side. More than 200 rifles, other arms and ammunition thus were taken from the fugitives. It was impossible to learn accur- ately the number of dead. Many were believed to have died through lack of medical attention, as neither federals nor rebels are equipped with any field hospital service and the Red Cross of ficials on this side were not permitted to ford the river—even under a Red Cross flag.

Denver.— Following a conference held between the executive committee of the Colorado Good Roads Associa: tion and the State Highway Commis: sioner, T. J. Ehrhart, letters were sent to each board of county commis: sioners in the state asking that at the fourth annual convention of the ‘Colorado Good Roads Association to be held at Colorado Springs, Jan. 15 and 16, a report be made of the work done on the roads of each county dur- ing the last year. It is planned to call the roll of the counties and at that time a response will be made by the chairman of the boards of the several counties telling of the work of 1913. This plan is be- ing adopted in order to bring before the people of the state exact reports as to the progress made in road con- struction in the last year, Another special feature of the Colo: rado Springs convention will be an ec: hibit of road making machinery.

Denver.—Notitication ‘of the inten: ticn of the State Land Board to can- cel tie twenty-five-year-old easement on a 040-nere reservoir vite in Naturl- ta valley, San Mizuel county, thus causing the land to revert to the con- trol of the state, was sent the San Miguel Irrigation and Land Company by Registrar Volney T. Hoggatt of the land poard. Hoggatt is working on the theory that the land was dedicated to the Naturita Ditch Company in April, 1889, while Job A. Cooper was gover: nor and A. Sagendort was registrar of the land board, and that it was re- Jeased to the company with the pro- viso that it be used for a reservoir site, Only ten acres of the 610 having béefeused for a reservoir, according to afidayits of the settlers in that vicin- ity, and the remaining 630 acres hav- ‘ing been used for grazing purposes, ‘the terms of the easement have been violated and the land reverts to the state, asserts Hogeatt. State to Get $200,000 Under Road Bill. Denver—Colorado will receive from $150,000 to $200,000 annually for the maintenance of its roads, providing the postal roads bill, now before Con- gress, {8 passed. T. J. Ehrhart, state highway commissioner, who has just arrived from an Eastern trip, says he was assured while in Washington that the bill would be adopted. The assur- ance to Commissioner Ehrhart comes from Chairman Shackelford of the good roads committee in the House. ‘The measure provides for an expendi- ture of approximately $15 an acre for the maintenance of ordinary dirt roads; $30 for graveled roads and $60 for macadam roads. “Chairman Shack- leford told me,” said Commissioner Ehrhart, “that the government used the state roads in the distribution of inail on the rural routes, He said that {t was no more than fair that the government should shoulder some of the expense.” Ammons Names County Officials.

"A place for everything, and everything in its place," is the inspiration of many sheerful furnishings which anyone can make. These gayly colored and useful trinkets of the bedroom help to keep the belongings of its occupant in order and easy to get at. Here is a group of four pieces which will be found useful as well as exceedingly pretty and easy to make. There is a little whisk broom holder made of one large and two small heart-shaped pieces of cardboard, covered with cretonne. Appropriate to the shape, the flower pattern is a full blown rose and foliage in one of the blurred patterns. The hearts are each covered separately, the two smaller ones sewed along one side to the larger and joined together with a little bow of pink ribbon at the front. This forms a holder for a small broad whisk broom. It is suspended by a hanger of the ribbon. This is a pretty gift for a man, and an appropriate little token for the engaged girl or the wife to give to her beloved. Another gift for either a man or woman is the tie rack. Nothing could be simpler to make. A shaped piece of thin pine board is used for this, and the cretonne is stretched over and pasted to it, covering the front and back. A small brass rod and little brackets furnish a support for ties. A hanger of wash ribbon in pink silk is fastened in rings at the back. This rack is pretty and calculated to inspire gratitude in the possessor. Hung beside the dressing case, it is no trouble to hang ties over it instead of mixing them with a few other things in the dresser drawer. For a lady's room there is a workbox made over a heavy cardboard foundation with cretonne pasted on. Narrow straps, made of folded strips of cretonne, tacked down at intervals of an inch or so, provide places for needles, thread, hooks and eyes, collar supports, etc., not to mention the always needed darning cotton. The lid is hinged to the box with a strip of Conservative New High Coiffure. A A SOME of the new coiffures go to extremes in the matter of height, but here is one that is conservative and very attractive. It shows several items that go to make up the new styles. There is the loose wave of the hair, the fringe across the forehead and the hint of ringlets at the sides. There is a glimpse of the ear and the quaint and "old-timy" jet earring which makes the skin look so dazzlingly white when the wearer is passably fair. It is noticeable that the hair is coiled very loosely at the back, after all of it has been waved. It falls to the nape of the neck. This feature is essential in order that our millinery may be becoming. No matter whether the hair is worn moderately or extremely high, it is not to be drawn up or back tightly at any place. The hair across the middle of the forehead is trimmed and curled under. At the sides the loose ends are curled into soft light ringlets (inconspicuous, but well cared for), while the mass of the hair is combed back and the ends twisted into a soft flat coll. This is pinned flat to the head, and plain shell pins are best liked for this purpose. Speaking of pins—wire hair pins must not be in evidence, no matter how prodigal the hairdresser finds it necessary to be in using them. They are to be concealed, invisible and reinforced by plain shell pins either large or small in size. For heavy masses of hair, or what appears to be a great abundance, the larger pins are appropriate. They are not jeweled and are often black in- --- cretonne, but small brass hinges are to be preferred. A hanging work basket is made of two pieces of cardboard covered with cretonne. The ends are joined with gores of silk, shirred and tied to the sides with bows of narrow ribbon. There is a pocket at each end for thread. A small needle book is fastened at the front, and hangers of ribbon provided, attached to each side. T The bottom of the basket is a strip o cardboard covered and sewed to the sides. Little ribbon bows at the front and ends make a finishing touch and complete the attractive basket. JULIA BOTTOMLEY. Fur-Edged Roses. Some new corsage flowers are roses that have four outside leaves edged with narrow, dark brown fur. Some of the roses are blue, some various shades of red and pink. They are big and striking, but especially suitable to wear with the street suit. A stead of colored like shell or to match the hair. Just now gray hair is very fashionable and women who give much attention to dress are going to the extreme of powdering their slightly gray locks to make them lighter. Ash blonds also resort to this expedient, and it will have to be acknowledged that the effect is pretty. Jet pins and ornaments, worn with the gray coifure, make it very brilliant. Women whose hair is gray in streaks now feature the streakiness instead of bewailing it. The effect is beautiful and startling until one becomes accustomed to it. The knob at the top of the head is placed just above the crown. In many of the new coifures it is further forward and much higher. For gray or red hair the high coifure is the best of all. It is stately looking and displays the hair to advantage. If there is not sufficient natural hair for this hairdress a single switch will serve just as well to make the coil. Anyone who will save the combings from the head will be surprised at the quantity of hair that is daily shed by most women and will not be long in accumulating enough for a switch or for puffs or side curls, all of which have appeared on the horizon of the hairdresser's field. The influence of the colonial style is apparent in the new modes. The colonial coifure may not be copied exactly, but the chances are that its features will dominate the new season. JULIA BOTTOMLEY.
