PATRONIZE MERCHANTS WHO ADV. IN THE PEOPLE'S PAPER THE COLORADO STATESMAN THE JOURNAL OF THE WEST. LABOR SHALL BE FREE RACE COUNTRY PARTY Memorial To Harriet Tubman VOL. XX. Memoria Harriet' Auburn, N. Y., June 16.—High tribute was paid to the memory of the late Harriet Tubman, familiarly known as "Aunt Harriet," on Friday evening, June 12, when a large bronze tablet, a token of love and esteem of the citizens of Auburn, was unveiled at the Auditorium Theatre. The tablet, which has been placed in the County Court House, bears the following inscription: In Memory of HARRIET TUBMAN Born a slave in Maryland about 1821. Died in Auburn, N. Y. March 10, 1913. This Tablet Is Erected by the Citizens of Auburn, 1914. Called the "Moses" of her people during the Civil War, with rare courage, she led over three hundred Negroes up from slavery to freedom, and rendered invaluable service as nurse and spy. With implicit trust in God she braved every danger and overcame every obstacle, withal she possessed extraordinary foresight and judgment so that she truthfully said: "On my underground railroad I nebber run my train off de track and I nebber los' a passenger." The unveiling was marked by appropriate exercises, prominent men of both races participating. The principal address was delivered by Dr. Booker T. Washington, who eloquently recited the achievements of Harriet Tubman, glorified her life and characterized her courage, constancy and wisdom as models for the races of the world. The speaker also extolled his race for the great progress made in fifty years of freedom and predicted for it a bright and happy future. Mayor Charles W. Brister paid a glowing tribute to "Aunt Harriet, as did former Mayor E. Clarence Aiken, who presided and made the presentation address. Mrs. Mary E. Talbert of Buffalo, president of the Empire of the Empire State Federation, read an excellent and interesting paper on the life and deeds of Harriet Tubman. The spacious lower floor of the theatre was filled and all the boxes were occupied. Seated on the stage were the speakers, the members of the Auburn Festival Chorus, an orchestra and guests. In one box was a group of Civil War veterans, while another was occupied by a party of prominent society women of Auburn. Conspicuous in a front seat of a lower box was Emily Howard of Sherwood, to whom a tribute was paid during the evening by Dr. Washington for her kindly interest in the Negro. Delegations representing colored societies, occupied boxes, and colored citizens from adjacent cities were present. As the curtain rose Olmstead's orchestra played a selection from "Adelle" which was followed by a solo, "The Battle Hymn of the Republic," by Miss Lena J. Broogs assisted by the Festival Chorus and audience. Prayer was offered by the Rev. John Quincy Adams of the seminary. The Festival Chorus then sang "Jerusalem the Golden." In making the presentation address former Mayor Aiken said: "We are gathered here this evening to pay tribute to one of the noblest and greatest character of Civil War, a woman who braved countless dangers and risked her life in service for her people and country. "There have been very few monuments erected to slaves and very few to the memory of Negroes and I believe but one to a Negro woman and a slave, but Auburn is erecting this tablet. "A great philosopher has said that nothing is settled until it is settled right. Today we are erecting a tablet to her who knew what was right and did her share in settling things that way. The people of Auburn are proud to honor this woman of courage who rendered such wonderful service to her people and her country. "We erect this tablet to her memory as a heroine and patriot, and it is with a feeling of pride that we unveil this tablet to her memory." At this point the lights in the house were dimmed and Miss Alice Lucas, a grandniece of Aunt Harriet, stepped forward and drew back the flag. In the light of the colored electric bulbs the effect was most pleasing. "Auburn is reprented at this ceremony by its Mayor who will speak for them," said Mr. Aiken and introduced Mayor Brister who was greeted with applause. He spoke as follows: "By the occasional illuminating flashes of greatness originating from unexpected and often times obscure sources are we continually reminded that in the divine conception of the universe provision was made for the proper guidance of the human race. "History teaches us that the attribute of courage and a conviction of duty toward humanity have very little regard for race, creed or color, that great crises always develop great leaders to conduct the people through the Red Sea of their difficulties In accepting this tablet today the City of Auburn recognizes the merit of her to whose memory it is DENVER COLORADO SATURDAY, JUNE 27, 1914 State Hst & Nat Hst Bcigs State House GIANTS WHO ADC THE JOURNAL DENVER COLORADO S dedicated. In accepting this tablet we reaffirm in a public way our belief that in the fullness of time character shall be measured by its true standard irrespective of its origin or its surrounding. "Indolent luxury and irresponsibility are not character builders; only by conflict with difficulties can be shown the metal of which is made. "Having in mind a purpose which carries with it a consciousness and a conviction of right develops an element of character which must be the measure of the man. "Measured by such a standard, the woman whose memory is today honored and perpetuated must be ranked with the great characters on history. "The spirit of devotion to her race, the skill displayed in carrying out her purpose and the success achieved won for her not only the admiration of the great men of her own time, but a not inconspicuous place in the hall of fame. "Not because the subject of this memorial was a woman, nor because she was black, is this tribute tendered but rather to commemorate the inherent greatness of her character. "Born as she was in the obscurity of slavery and bound by its shackles, the memory of this woman should be an object of reverence to every member of her race, and the example in her achievement an inspiration to every member of our great nation." Dr. Washington in opening his remarks praised Auburn for the way in which it was commemorating the life of such a noble woman. He spoke of the wonderful hardships and dangers that she had endured and said that he had experienced some of them. He had known what it was to be hungry. He had known what poverty was and he had known what it meant to be of dark skin. He said that Harriet Tubman had been spoken of by some as being ignorant, "but," said he, coming in contact with people and the realities of life educate one and through her coming in contact with people and problems I believe that she was one of the best educated women in the world." Dr. Washington spoke of Auburn and its immediate vicinity as having produced many great men. He lauded Seward and others and paid a glowing tribute to Miss Emily Howland of Sherwood, who has done much for the colored people and although 87 years old, occupied a box and was one of the interested among the audience last evening. He pointed to the great advancement that the Negro had made in America. Quick Thinker. "But I've heard that you proposed to three other girls this month." "I— er—er—was merely rehearsing for my proposal to you." Adam Irvin, one of our highly respected citizens, was shot and killed on the 13th inst., by a Mexican policeman who was off duty. The cause seems to be shrouded in mystery. Joe Macklin of 213 Dawson street royally entertained a few friends Tuesday evening of last week. While whist and checkprs were interesting features of the occasion the very excellent music which was furnished by Mr. and Mrs. Walter Markham, brought forth applause and flattering comment from the guests. Choice refreshments were served and the evening proved to be one of bliss. After an illness of a few months, Mrs. Hannah Hardaway died Monday, June 15th at her late residence, 513 North street. The funeral services were held Wednesday afternoon from Second Baptist church conducted by the F. E. Lewis Undertaking Co., under the auspices of S. L. Reid Tabernacle No. 32 Knights and daughters of Tabor; Golden Gate Temple No. 113, U. B. F. and S. M. T., and Christian Aid Society of Second Baptist church, Rev. I. H Kelly officiating. Deceased was a faithful and influential member of above named church, and her sad demise leaves a vacancy that cannot be easily filled. The many costly and beautiful floral offerings which covered the handsome $300 plush casket of purple hue and the large procession that followed the remains to the cemetery, was indeed a token of evidence of the high esteem in which she was held. Besides four daughters, one son and other relatives deceased leaves a large circle of friends to mourn her sad demise. The boys say that "Brother' Markham, the tonsorial artist and proprietor of the Alameda Barber shop, is becoming to be quite famous as a lawyer from trying cases of the Kangaroo Court which is frequently held at his shop. Missed Opportunity. Another precedent has been broken. A New York trained nurse married a wealthy patient, and then let him get well.—Washington Herald. Aeschylus at Syracuse. Aeschylus at Syracuse. For four days in April dramas of the Athenian tragic poet Aeschylus were performed in the old Greek theater at Syracuse, in eastern Sicily. Aeschylus has long been popular in Syracuse. Twenty-three centuries ago Athenian prisoners taken in the great defeat before that city, and sold as slaves after the custom of the time, earned their freedom by reciting the verses of their great poet. Perhaps some of the men thus set at liberty organized a company and acted "Prometheus Bound" or "The Persians" in the same theater where the same plays will be presented next spring. The poet who is held in favor for 2,300 years in one place cannot complain of public fickleness. ANTI-TIP AGITATION AND PULLMAN PORTERS BY WM. G. MAY Special to Colorado Statesman. It is not my purpose to discuss here the salary phase of this proposition, preferring to leave it solely to those whose business it is and whom it only should concern—the Pullman Co and the Pullman Porters. Neither is it my desire to pass upon the propriety or ethical features of the general system of gratuities. I merely wish to propound some pertinent questions of information to those who have singled out pullman porters as objects of their spasms. If the system of gratuities is universally recognized, countenanced and practiced by all classes from millionaire to tramp, why have pullman porters been singled from other recipients of gratuities for all this voluminous agitation? If, in their capacity, they serve as faithfully and satisfactorily as recipients in other capacities, are they not as much entitled to a fee if the party served is disposed to donate? And if not, why? When a pullman porter conscientiously serves in his capacity of administering to the comforts of the same passengers for from one to four consecutive days and nights, if any body is, who is more entitled to a fee than this same pullman porter? Considerable capital has been made of a grouch, (which in most instances is purely imaginary) that porters are alleged to express when offered small fee. In rebuttal it needs only be suggested that it is a matter of general information to those of public experience that pullman porters and colored waiters are more profuse in their appreciation of small fees than any other class of servants with whom they come in contact. We have besitated to believe that pullman porters were singled out designedly because the position is ordinarily regarded as a colored man's job, but developments tend slowly, if at all, to dissipate such suspicion. If this agitation is for the sake of economy, why not begin first where the most can be saved? Waiters in taverns, cafes, large hotels and bellhops therein are greater beneficiaries of the fee system than pullman porters, in that they expect more and somehow get it. If it is presumed that the Pullman Co. has and is reaping a harvest and can amply afford to pay larger salaries, why not logically choose employees of corporations with capital double and triple the capital of the Pullman Co. who are NO 44 salaried at less than pullman porters? I refer particularly to pages or redeappers in stations owned by large railroads and union stations, operated by syndicated railroads where in many cities they receive salaries merely sufficient to legalize their services. If, as they contend, expectation and acceptance of gratuities be base and demoralize and that it is for moral and humanitarian reasons they agitate, it would only seem logical and reasonable that they begin where tipping is most general and most generous, thus beginning where the danger of demoralization is most imminent and working around to pullman porters. But as blind as we would be, we see everything. Only casual analysis will suffice to convince one that this unfortunate agitation is conceived in and born of a prejudice that is a rank injustice to pullman porters. They are a class of servants that deserve much better. Of course everyman wants all he can get for his hire, but we must admit that the hysteria of these agitators will be accepted with better grace when they decide to share their uncontrollable sympathies with those of their own blood who are serving as waiters on $25.00 and $30.00 salaries and those serving as redcappers for corporations that can buy and sell the Pullman Co. for less salaries than are paid pullman porters. Then and not until then will we appreciate as we would like to, their oratory and ink. VANCOUVER, B. C., NEWS. (Special to Colorado Statesman) The Pacific Coast Ad men held their convention in the city a few days ago. It was very successful, but nothing to compare with Denver in hauling conventions, but Denver is a convention city and Vancouver is not. Some of the floats were very pretty. Mr. H. H. Cottrell and Mr. L. F. Kerr of the Great Northern were in the city Tuesday of last week. Mrs. Oliver of Davie St., is still boarding the C. P. R. boys and they all speak in the highest terms of her cooking. Mr. and Mrs Geo. Anderson are living in their beautiful residence on the King's Highway. Mrs. E. C. Ross of 261 Kefer St., is confined to her home with a bad spell of rheumatism. We hope to see her out soon.

Denver, Colorado AFRO-AMERICAN CULLINGS The heroic efforts being made by the comparatively few colored Washingtonians cannot be ignored, writes Michael Jones in a communication to the Star of that city. In the city of Washington, among many other enterprises owned, operated and controlled by colored people, are 600 grocery stores, large and small; more than twenty drug stores; two dozen first-class tailors, who cater to the finest trade; about forty dyeing and cleaning establishments and dozens of barber shops, undertaking establishments, confectionery shops, etc. Washington colored people own and control one shoe store, one thriving banking institution and several scientifically conducted insurance companies. The continuation of just such steps as have been taken by the few referred to above in business efforts, will do more to solve the "race problem" than all the indignation meetings that can be held between now and the day of judgment. I am thoroughly convinced that if half the energy, pride, ambition, thought and money used in promoting indignation meetings were directed into channels that would lead to the erection of a manufacturing plant, the organization of a corporation or the establishment of some other worthy enterprise, America's most mistreated citizens would be better able to get that for which they strive and should rightly have. The ten millions of Negroes in America buy about 20,000,000 pairs of shoes each year, for which they pay not less than $40,000,000, but they operate scarcely a dozen small retail shoe stores, and there is not in existence one large shoe factory owned, operated and controlled by negroes. Every year colored people in America spend more than $50,000,000 for hats (including Easter season), yet not more than $10,000 of this amount finds its way to colored hat dealers, haberdashers and millinery shops combined. At $6 per capita America's colored population pays $60,000,000 each year for suits of clothes, but statistics will reveal the fact that the combined business of Negroes in the clothes business does not amount to $250,000 a year. What is true of shoes, hats, suits and clothes in this relation is true of everything that colored people wear and use. Is not there something radically wrong? Surely it is timely and good to call the attention of a materially weak race to such existing conditions, that it may be stimulated to build and strengthen such a sadly neglected phase of its racial life. The National Negro Business league, of which Dr. Booker T. Washington is president, is rendering an invaluable service to the country in that it is helping the Negro to find himself and succeed as a business man. Hundreds of negro builders, contractors, real estate brokers, managers of insurance companies, bankers, manufacturers, undertakers, drummogs, general merchandise dealers, bakers, florists, etc., find their way to the annual meetings of the league. There they go for mutual help, conference and inspiration. They assemble to learn and teach others how to succeed in establishing and maintaining business enterprises. The state free employment bureau in Worcester, Mass., has filled 1,171 positions, representing 90 kinds of employment, in the six months since its establishment. The long-cherished plans of the colored people of New York to have a theater of their own are about to be put in operation. The Bijou theater, Broadway and Thirty-ninth street, for years one of the famous playhouses of the city, will be reopened as a theater for colored people. The scheme is under the direction of Jerome Rosenberg, who will be one of the white persons connected with the venture. Rosenberg will inaugurate a colored stock company at the Bijou to play musical comedies, and the opening production will be "The Darktown Follies of 1914." All the employees of the Bijou will be colored persons from the man in the box office to the ushers and the water boys. The orchestra, too, will be made up of colored musicians. The Bijou is being redecorated for the opening, and the price of the best seats will be $1. On certain afternoons the management plans to give performances when white persons will be admitted. Great Britain's foreign trade for 1913 reached an unprecedented total. More than 100,000,000 cubic feet of gas a day has been going to waste in Guthrie, Okla., where at times five wells have been blowing simultaneously. In order to shut off the waste it is necessary to bore through so as to strike the well below the leak and to draw it off. A man in Portland, Or. has a taste which calls for sour things as an ordinary taste does for sugar. At every meal he eats a quart of sour pickles, making three-fourths of a gallon daily. An interesting account of how the courts in many states were enlisted during the year 1913 to aid the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People in the steady fight to obtain full recognition everywhere for the Negro race is presented in the report of the association's attorney, which is made a part of the fourth annual report of the body, just issued in printed form. The attorney is Chapin Brinsmade of New York. Included in his work were three cases before the United States Supreme court, namely, an attack on the constitutionality of the "grandfather" clause in Oklahoma, which, in effect, compels Negroes to pass educational tests before being permitted to register and vote; an effort to win an injunction against the enforcement of the "Jim Crow" law, which affects railroad travel by Negroes in southern states, the injunction having been denied in lower courts; another test of the "Jim Crow" law as applicable to interstate travel in sleeping cars. These cases still are pending. The following paragraphs from Mr. Brinsmade's report show the various interests which have been taken by the legal department of the association in behalf of the negro race: "The segregation idea is spreading. Madisonville, Ky., has just passed a segregation ordinance. I am communicating with a committee of colored citizens of Louisville organized to oppose its passage. "The Jim Crow' problem has reached a stage where little can be done except by legislation to prevent segregation. It seems to me that more can be accomplished along this line by appealing to the various public service commissions than by bringing actions in the courts. "The recent statute of Florida, making it illegal for white teachers to teach in colored schools, and colored in white schools, is perhaps the worst example of recent anti-negro legislation. I am in communication with several church missionary associations which conduct missions in Florida, and expect to co-operate with them in testing the act, should it be applied to private institutions. "Exclusion of colored people from real estate auctions has been a source of complaint during the last year. We are taking proceedings to prevent such discrimination in the future." The attorney reports further concerning cases in which the association interested itself in behalf of negroes who were excluded from certain parts of theaters, compelled to eat at certain tables in restaurants and refused admission to places of amusement. According to the report of the chairman of the board of directors, the association more than doubled its membership during 1913, an increase from 1,100 to 3,000 members and from 11 to 24 branches. The department of publicity and research reports that 72 lectures were delivered to audiences aggregating 41,000 persons by the director of the department. An apple tree belonging to S. W. Alexander of Los Angeles county, California, is exciting considerable interest because it bore two crops in one season, and the second crop was of a different variety than the first. The apples of the first crop were light in color and of medium size, while the second edition were dark reddish in color and in no way resembling the earlier crop. Garrison Square in Kansas City was opened to negroes by the park board recently. It is bounded by Troost and Forest avenues, Fourth and Fifth streets. The field house cost $60,000. In addition are an athletic field, wading pool and playground. A large crowd of negroes attended the opening. In the field house are 41 shower baths, 22 of which are private, a large auditorium, reading room, rest room and library. The wading pool is in commission, but the athletic field has not been fully equipped yet. The latest report of the director of the bureau of agriculture at Manila says that the rice crop of the last year was the greatest which has been recorded for many years in the Phi- ppines, being 100 per cent greater than in the previous year. As a direct result of the bumper crop there has been a decrease of rice imports of more than 176,000,000 pounds, re- presenting in value more than $2,500, 000. Recent statistics credit the United States with about one automobile for each two miles of country road. Native gold miners in Tibet leave nuggets intact or replace them if disturbed, in the belief that they are the parents of spangles and dust, which would disappear were the nuggets re- moved. In southern France the fig tree is now cultivated almost exclusively for the production of fresh fruit, which has a ready sale in the large centers. The drying of figs has been practically abandoned in this region, except for the personal requirements of a small number of growers.

DICTATOR'S FATE IS SEALED ADOPTPEACEPLAN ADOPTPEACEPLAN MEDIATORS PREPARE PROTOCOL AND WILSON ORDERS TERMS BE ACCEPTED. NO INDEMNITY ASKED HUERTA AND CARRANZA DELEGATES MUST DECIDE UPON NEW GOVERNMENT. Western Newspaper Union News Service. Niagara Falls, Ont., June 25.—Terms for composing all international differences between the United States and Mexico have been concluded. The conditions under which diplomatic relations will be resumed were embodied in a protocol which was signed by the ambassador from Brazil, the ministers of Chile and Argentina and the American and Huerta delegates. The character of the settlement is not expected to arouse opposition from the constitutionalists, who will participate in and to a large degree would mould the adjustment of all international disputes. When a new provisional government is established to succeed that headed by General Huerta the result of mediation—recognized as a triumph for Pan-American diplomacy—will become effective. Incidentally with the action taken it was announced that the actual selection of a provisional President and the organization of the new government, which is considered a purely internal problem, will be left to an informal conference of representatives of the constitutionalists—Luis Cabrera, Rafael Zubaran and Jose Vasconcelos—and the delegates sent by General Huerta to the mediation conference. No formal adjournment of the mediators will be taken, but there will be no sessions while the representatives of the two warring factions in Mexico endeavor to arrive at an agreement on the personnel of the new government, the agrarian and other questions. Wednesday night's formal session of mediators and delegates prepared the way for the complete settlement of the difficulties between the United States and Mexico growing out of the failure of a Huerta officer at Tampico to salute the Stars and Stripes, which was demanded as reparation for the arrest of American bluejackets. Terms of Protocol. The single outstanding proviso in the protocol is that the international problem shall be declared adjusted on the establishment of the new provisional government. The protocol sets forth: "That the United States, and Argentina, Brazil and Chile—the mediation countries—shall recognize the new provisional government and that thenceforth diplomatic relations between the United States and Mexico shall be resumed. "That the United States demands no indemnity and does not further exact satisfaction for any of the incidents connected with the patrol of Mexican waters and invasion of the country. Adjust Private Claims "That a commission shall be appointed to adjust private claims growing out of the revolution and international incidents." The protocol was drafted and its phraseology telegraphed to Washington for approval. At 9 o'clock word came from Presid FOUR DYNAMITERS FREED. Hannon, Mooney, Painter and Shups Have Sentences Commuted. Washington.—President Wilson commuted to expire at once the sentences imposed on Michael J. Hannon of Scranton, Pa., Frank H. Painter of Omaha, Neb., Fred J. Mooney of Duluth, Minn., and William Shupe of Chicago, all convicted in the "dynamite conspiracy" cases. The other twenty defendants, including President Frank Ryan and other leaders, must begin serving their sentences in Leavenworth penitentiary. Clemency for John H. Berry and Paul J. Morrin, both of St. Louis, was withheld while they have opportunity to submit separate petitions. Hannon had been sentenced to three years, Painter to two, Mooney and Shupe each got a year and a day, Barry got four years and Morrin three. Russian Ambassador Chosen. Washington.—George T. Mayre of San Francisco, has been selected by the President to be ambassador to Russia. George Simonton Found Dead. Denver.—George E. Simonton, 512 manager of the Rocky Mountain Fire Underwriters' Association, who lived at 2350 Clermont street, Denver, committed suicide by drinking poison in City park. He was past grand master of the Masons of Colorado and high in Knight Templary. Servian King Gives Throne to Son. Belgrade, Servia.—King Peter I of Servia was reported to have abdicated the throne in favor of his second son, Prince Alexander. dent Wilson and Secretary Bryan authorizing the American delegates to sign it. Must Settle Differences. The results of the mediators' work places the issue now squarely before the representatives of the warring factions. On them will rest the responsibility for failure or success of the peace plans as a whole. The mediators and American delegates will stand by to lend a helping hand and give their counsel when sought. Luis Cabrera, Rafael Zubaran and Jose Vasconcelos, the constitutionalist delegates, are in Washington and should arrive here in another day or two, though final arrangements for their coming has not been made. At the close of the day's conference, Ambassador DaGama gave out a statement embracing the protocols which were signed. He announced that three articles of the peace plan had been protocolized, and that these related only to the international side of the Mexican problem. "We deemed it advisable," he said, to invite the constitutionalist party to send delegates to discuss with the Mexican delegates the internal aspects of the problems." The protocols signed are as follows: Article I.—The provisional government referred to in the protocol No. 3 shall be constituted by agreement of the delegates representing the parties between which the internal struggle in Mexico is taking place. Article II.—(A) Upon the constitution of the provisional government in the City of Mexico the government of the United States of America will recognize immediately and thereupon diplomatic relations between the two countries will be restored. (B) The government of the United States of America will not in any form whatsoever claim a war indemnity or other international satisfaction. (C) The provisional government will proclaim absolute amnesty to all foreigners for any and all political offenses committed during the period of civil war in Mexico. (D) The provisional government will negotiate for the constitution of international commissions for the settlement of the claims of foreigners on account of damages sustained during the period of civil war as a consequence of military acts or the acts of national authorities. Article III.—The three mediating governments agree on their part to recognize the provisional government organized as provided by section 1 of the protocol. "Protocol No. 3" referred to in the above was signed two weeks ago and set forth merely that a provisional government to be constituted as later provided shall be recognized on a certain date, to be agreed upon subsequently and from that time forward shall exercise governmental powers until the inauguration of a constitutional president. Gen. Villa Takes Zacatecas. El Paso, Tex., June 25.—Zacatecas, an important city of central Mexico, fell into the hands of the Constitutionalists. This was announced by General Villa's officials here. Two of Villa's generals were wounded. As the attack could not have been made before Tuesday morning, according to local reports, it was evident that General Villa had completed another triumph by taking the federal stronghold by assault. His previous victories in the north had been accomplished in general only after days of fighting. Lady Panchita Length Behind Celesta. Denver. — Celesta, the 4-year-old daughter of Sempronius and Rezia, repeated her victory in the opening handicap by capturing the Denver City handicap at Overland Park Wednesday. The trip of a mile and an eighth, with the top weight of 116, was nothing more than a romp for her. She justified the confidence placed in her by the public, who sent her to the post a 4 to 5 favorite, by coming down the wire six lengths to the good. Behind her was Lady Panchita, who ran a splendid race, and Orilin Kripp, second Roosevelt Defends Perkins. New York. — Theodore Roosevelt, who returned to America upon the Importer Wednesday, vigorously defended George W. Perkins, chairman of the Progressive national executive committee, whose resignation as chairman was demanded recently by Amos Pinchot, who declared that Perkins' affiliation with certain big business interests made him unfit to hold his position. "When you read Perkins out," said Colonel Roosevelt, "they will have to read me out, too." Confesses Beating Barn Boss Denver.—John Frazier, recently employed by W. W. Axton, a grading contractor, confessed to George Saunders, acting chief of detectives, that he beat and fatally wounded Christopher C. Page, 42, barn boss for Axton, in an attempt to murder Page. Premier Baron of Scotland a Suicide. London.—Lord Forbes, premier baron of Scotland, was found dead in a hotel at Dundee with his throat cut. He had committed suicide. He was eighty-five years old.

Anyone who has been keeping in touch with the immoral condition of things prevailing in our nation today can indorse the statements of George J. Kneeland, director of the department of investigation of the American Social hygiene, when he addressed the delegates to the General Federation of Women's Clubs two weeks ago in Chicago. We therefore, being conscious of the fact that some of these conditions exist among our people, feel duty bound to give publication to such weighty and highly valuable suggestions and advices coming from such an authoritative source, and urge upon the club women of our race to strictly and impartially adhere to such wise statements as quite a number of our girls are frequenting very questionable resorts; and what is more than startling, these girls are not from the homes of poverty, ignorance and vice, but from our best homes, having been reared up decently and intelligently. Information has reached us from time to time relative to certain localities where these girls congregate, and some go so far as to request entertainment from the men who generally lurk at such corners jingling their little coins, thereby attracting them and eventually these girls become the recipients of their mocked or forced hospitality which delight these feminine unfortunates. Mr. Kneeland made an earnest appeal to the club women to make every effort and use every legitimate means to save our misguided girls who possess certain characteristics which make them rebellious towards home and parents, suspicious and scornful of decent boy friends, rather desiring secrecy which gives them a preference to meet strangers and married men. Continuing he said, "They shrink from exposure, and while they present an innocent and demure front to their friends, they show themselves in their true colors to stranger." "Strangers," the girls say, "come and go, and married men are like people living in glass houses." No honest mind, especially those of us who have had like experience with some of our children, should hesitate to urge our noble band of workers of the women's club to accept the following suggestions of Mr. Kneeland and materially assist in carrying them out successfully, as it surely will be the means whereby our gray hairs may go down to the grave in peace. "First—Find these girls in your own town. Then, having found them, you can attach yourself to them with bands of love and understanding. But you say, I don't know how to begin. I don't know how to act toward them or what to say." The way to know them is to study your own heart, remember the days of your own youth. The influence that protected you will in the end save them. "Second—You can give them healthful and sane instructions as to the mystery of life. You can warn them of disease, and the crime of abortion. Knowledge must drive out ignorance. The evil must be supplanted by good. "Third—Each one of you can have a powerful influence in providing amusements in your own community where the sex appeal is eliminated. "Fourth—You can use your influence to bring about better economic and industrial conditions, so that father can be masters in their own homes; so that young men can marry early in life. "Fifth—Teach ignorant mothers and fathers so that they will love and understand their children more than they do. "Sixth—Teach boys and young men to honor womanhood. Make them realize that young girls represent more than half of all future generations, that upon them depends the health and power of the race, that to injure any girl is a crime against unborn generations. Men must learn to sacrifice themselves, if need be, for the good of the race. "Seventh—And last. Use your influence to restore to the home the simple, yet powerful protection which grows out of the belief in the religion of our fathers. "The most complete solution of a man's or woman's sex problem lies in vital personal relationship to the infinite and eternal God. This we must teach to our sons and daughters."

It is more important, more interesting to you than that given by the paper or magazine from the outside world. It is the first reading matter you should buy. Each issue of this paper gives to you just what you will consider The Right Kind of Reading Matter Hints From France, Where Its Preparation is an Art, Will Be Found of Much Value. There is an art in preparing salad. A French chef accuses Americans of ignorance concerning it. He says the leaves are seldom treated properly before being put in the bowl. He advises the following: Salad leaves should be inspected carefully, with each faded or bruised spot removed. They should be washed in four waters to insure perfect cleanliness. Then all should be placed in a perfectly clean cloth. Gather this cloth by the four corners and shake it until no water sprays from the leaves. Put them in a cool place until it is time to serve the salad. Then remove the leaves from the cloth and dry each one carefully. Tear the big leaves with your fingers. Put the crisp white little leaves in a bowl which has been rubbed with garlic. Then place the shredded large leaves upon them. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Use two tablespoonfuls of oil, and then pour a little vinegar upon the oil, as it mixes better this way. Twist and turn the lettuce until they are all covered with dressing. No mustard should be used on a delicate green salad. WITH THE CHICORY SALAD Variety of Dressings, Any of Which Will Do to Give Finishing Touch to Delicious Dish. There are three varieties of the barbe to be found in our markets (perhaps it is better known to most of us as "chicory;" in some localities it is "goat's beard" or "monk's beard"), but they all belong to the endive family. Barbe is the pale green variety, blanched is the white loosely curled, and witloof is the pinkish curled solid heads. The proper dressing to serve in this salad is a French dressing, but any of the following may be used: Saucee Mandalay.—To a good French dressing add one tablespoonful of Mandalay sauce, a teaspoonful of chopped olives, juice of a small onion, teaspoonful of finely chopped chives. Mustard Sauce.—Chop a half green pepper and a quarter of a small cucumber fine, after removing seeds, add to a half cup of mustard dressing and after mixing add a quarter cup of thin French dressing. Sauce Violette.—To a half cupful of French dressing add a teaspoonful of moutarde violette de brive, mix well, cut the salad into half-inch lengths and garnish with olive rings. Chicory and endive, besides being salad agents, may be boiled in clear water until tender, drained and served with any of the cream sauces. Rice Croquettes If you try this recipe you will pronounce it very satisfying, especially at this time, when the price of meat is so high. When boiled rice is served be sure not to cook it too much. Of this take two cupfuls and put it on the fire in a double boiler, add to it one gill of milk, salt and pepper to taste, one teaspoonful of onion juice, four grates of nutmeg, the grated rind and juice of half a lemon, one tablespoonful of grated cheese, and the same of chopped parsley. Boil three-quarters of an hour, then stir in the beaten yolk of one egg. Turn out on flat dish to cool. When cold enough to handle easily form into croquettes, dip into beaten egg, then in fine bread crumbs. Fry in deep boiling fat. Serve very hot, with or without tomato sauce. That Scrap of Cheese Whether it be cream cheese, the snappy variety, Roquefort or any other variety, do not throw it away! Mash it with a fork and add it to that little bit of French dressing left from last night's salad course. Add also a generous dash of paprika, and if this does not make a sufficient quantity, add catup. It sounds like an awful mess, but really is most delicious if added to the ordinary chopped cabbage and celery, a spoonful of which placed on a crisp lettuce leaf, to which is added a slice of tomato, makes an attractive and appetizing salad. Strawberry Omelet One-fourth cupful of butter, one-half cupful of sugar, one cupful, crushed strawberries. Prepare a French omelet in the usual way. Spread with the strawberry sauce and fold. Serve immediately. This makes a very dainty summer lunch dish.—Pictorial Review Washington Pie Take one cup of sugar, one-half cup of sweet milk, one egg, one and one half cups of flour, one-fourth cup of shortening, two teaspoonfuls of baking powder and lemon extract. A teaspoonful of castor oil poured at the roots of a dying palm, or a forlorn asparagus fern, will make it grow like magic. When you buy ham, and it is hard and salty, try soaking it sliced in milk overnight. When bacon is good and sweet the lean is firm and bright and the fa quite white.

On Thursday evening, June 18, the Mite Society, with Mrs. Mae E. Byrd, chairman of the executive committee, and Mrs. R. L. Pope, president, gave the public a most successful entertainment, it being the occasion of the ushers' contest and prize drill. So high did popular interest run that more people were in attendance than could be comfortable provided for. Mr. J. A. Walden proved to be the popular usher and was awarded a handsome gold-headed cane. Mr. J. P. Perkins was a close second, bearing off a beautiful Stetson and Mr. William Robinson came in third for the umbrella. On account of absentees, Central's team declined to enter the contest, but the Shorter girls gave an exhibition in the flower and tambourine drills, which charmed and pleased the audience beyond description. The receipts from the contest were $142.05. The success of this entertainment is due in no small degree to the untiring efforts of Mrs. Mae E. Byrd, who made large sacrifices in time, energy and means. The closing exercises of Shorter Chapel teacher-training class were held Tuesday evening last, when eleven of our teachers received diplomas from the First Standard Teacher Training Course. The address by Dr. D. A. Graham of Colorado Springs was a very strong and profitable one, and was listened to gladly. In presenting the certificates Mrs. Jean F. Webb commended the class for its high grade of efficiency attained in studies prescribed. At the close of the exercises tokens of appreciation were given by the class, the pastor receiving a beautiful watch fob and Mrs. Mary E. Wade, the president, a souvenir spoon. P. A. REV. H. FRANKLIN BRAY, D.D., Pastor Bethel A. M. E. Church, Hutchinson, Kans. Aboard a Santa Fé flyer, Monday evening, Dr. H.

The congregation he is pastoring gave him $50 last Sunday and sent him to Manitou for a three weeks' rest. The new church will be dedicated the second Sunday in August, at which time another thousand dollars is expected to be raised. Dr. Bray came to Denver for his mother, who will be with him through his vacation at the Springs and Manitou. They left for there Thursday morning. TO THE DEMOCRACY OF COLO RADO. In response to requests recently made by a number of my friends, I take this opportunity of announcing my candidate for the Democratic nomination for the office of secretary of state. I have resided in the state of Colorado for thirty-seven years, having come to this state in 1877 from my native state of Kentucky. From the time I cast my first vote I have been associated with the Democratic party, having spent thirteen years in active work in connection with the State Democratic Committee as assistant secretary. I have always worked for the benefit of the Democratic party and for the benefit of the candidates nominated by the party, and have not heretofore called upon the voters of this state to vote for me for any office. For the past five years I have been deputy secretary of state. In that position I have naturally become familiar with the duties of the office to which I aspire. I think I can claim with some pride that I have been lerugly instrumental in placing the office of the secretary of state upon a thoroughly business-like basis without attempting to detract anything from GUARANTEED SILK PETTICOATS A new one if it cracks or rips in three months= Did you ever hear of anything like this before? 1 On Sale Utr the credit which belongs to the secretary of state, Mr. Pearce. I am sure he will agree that I have devoted myself entirely to this end during the time that I have been his deputy. I have proceeded all the while upon the theory that this office should give prompt, adequate and efficient service to the public just as though it were a private enterprise seeking the good will of its patrons, and I have worked with this in view without a day's vacation during the past five years. The present secretary of state, Mr. Pearce, while properly remaining neutral owing to the fact that two of his subordinates are candidates, will testify to the correctness of what I have just said. If elected to the office I promise the people the continued businesslike administration of the office that I have assisted in giving in the past. This is primarily my platform. Insofar, however, as the duties of the office relate to governmental matters, I think it should at all times aid the constituted authorities in the strict and impartial enforcement of the law of the state, and if elected I pledge my support to this end.

PHONE YORK 7837 1417 East 24th Ave Denver Agricultural Department WASHINGTON, D.C. MILK AS A TISSUE-FORMING FOOD. Few people realize how much nourishment there is in milk, particularly how much tissue-forming material there is in it. They realize that it is rich in fat because they see cream rise upon it and know that it is made into butter, but of the fact that it is an important tissue former they often lose sight. It happens that by far the greater part of the tissue-forming materials remain in the milk after it is skimmed or after the butter is removed from it, so for the purpose of building up the body skim milk counts for as much as an equal volume of whole milk and buttermilk is not far behind. Milk does not appear to be very nourishing, probably because it is a liquid, while most other foods are solids. As a matter of fact, it is not a concentrated food, and if a person should try to substitute it for meat and to take only as much by weight as he does of the meat he would get very little nourishment. But think! It takes only two glasses of milk to weigh a pound, and many a person takes as much as this at a meal, while he would never eat a pound of meat. So, while milk has a small percentage of protein, as the tissue-builders of the food are sometimes called, it counts up in the long run because of the large quantities of it which a person naturally takes. If you want to get an idea of how much protein there is in milk as compared with some other common foods, set side by side a glass of milk (one-fourth of a quart), a medium-sized egg (two ounces), a small ball of chopped meat (one and a quarter ounces of boneless, medium fat beef, mutton, pork, or other meat. Make 13 balls of equal size out of a pound of meat and you will get about the right amount), a piece of cheese half the size of an egg, and a scant quarter of a cupful of uncooked, or a half cupful of cooked navy beans or cowpeas. (The amounts of beans and peas make allowance for the part which remains undigested. See Farmers' Bulletin 559, page 9.) These samples of food will, of course, not represent exactly equal amounts of protein, for all foods vary in composition, and besides round numbers have been selected for convenience. They will, however, serve to give an idea of what a glass of milk is equivalent to as a tissue former. Since milk is so valuable a source of nourishment, people naturally desire to know a large number of ways of using it. One good way to use milk, and skim milk in particular, is in making milk soup. This is good for the children and not difficult to prepare. Milk soups, too, are a good way of using up small amounts of vegetables which happen to be left over, for, of course, they are improved by being flavored. There is almost no vegetable which cannot be used for this purpose; tomatoes, asparagus, peas, corn, potatoes, squash, turnips, carrots, all are good, and if the amount available is small add a little onion to piece out with or onion alone can be used. Some people simply combine the vegetable, after they have put it through a sieve, with hot milk and season with salt or with salt and pepper. (Note: Wash the sieve at once or put it to soak and save much trouble.) Others thicken the soup with a little flour, which makes it seem more substantial, and still others add a little butter or cheaper fat, which they work into the soup more or less carefully. Here is a recipe for a soup made of cowpeas and milk taken from Farmers' Bulletin 559. Any other peas may be used. Cream of Cowpea Soup.—One tablespoonful of butter (all measurements are level), one tablespoonful flour, two cups milk, one teapoonful sugar, one cupful cowpeas (green or dried), a few drops of onion juice, salt. Melt the butter, add the flour and cook thoroughly being careful not to brown it. Add the milk and bring the mixture to the boiling point. Put the peas through a sieve; add peas and seasonings to the milk and reheat. If too thick add milk or water. Baker milk pudding, which is another good way of using skim milk, is too often kept for dessert. Few people realize how truly nourishing it is, and that if it is not made too sweet or is not too highly favored it can be used as the chief dish at a meal, providing the family likes it. Make it moist by using only a little of the starchy substance, rice, corn meal or farina, with which the milk is usually combined, and cook it in a very slow oven. Farmers' Bulletin 413 speaks of these puddings and of their nutritive value and gives many other valuable suggestions about keeping and using milk. Poor Man's Rice Pudding.—One quart of milk, half cup of rice, or less, half cup of sugar, or less, half teaspoon of salt, half teaspoon of powdered clammon. Put all the ingredients together in an earthen baking dish and cook in a very slow oven for three hours, stirring occasionally during the first hour. This pudding has approximately as much tissue-forming material in it as the soup for which the recipe is given above. Scalloped potatoes can be made in which the same way except that a little butter would be used in place of the sugar and a larger amount of potato can be used than of rice. In this article milk has been referred to chiefly in connection with its value as a tissue former. Nothing has been said of the fat and mineral matter it contains. When these are taken into consideration, it makes an even better showing. See Farmers' Bulletin 413, page 14. There you will find that all the food in a cup of milk is equal to that in three ounces of beef or in two eggs. SEASONING FOR COTTAGE CHEESE, SOUPS AND SALADS. The savories of the diet, the highly flavored substances, like herbs and spices, which we use in small amounts only, seldom have much food value, but they are often the means of making the lower-priced food materials attractive and thus they may serve to keep down the cost of living. Americans are not much given to the use of these substances and might well take a lesson from some of the European nations. There is a vegetable of European origin, belonging, like the onion, to the lily family and known as the chive, which has so good a flavor and is so easy to raise and to use, and is besides so ornamental as it grows, that it seems strange that American housekeepers do not make more use of it. The chive is a perennial which puts forth long, slender, hollow leaves and has small delicate purplish flowers. It can not easily be grown from the seed, but a bunch of chives can be separated and the parts replanted. They make an ornamental border for a flower or vegetable bed and can be grown in a pot or window box in the house. Some people put them into their fern d'shes and consider them very decorative. The advantage of using the chive, which resembles but is not exactly like the onion in taste and odor, besides the fact that it gives variety to the diet, is that it can be obtained in suitable form for use in cooking without the danger of getting any of it on the hands. The leaves can be cut off and snipped into small pieces by means of a pair of scissors, and, unless the hands touch the cut surfaces (and this is avoidable), no trace of the odor remains upon them. If one is sure the leaves of the plant are clean a paper or dish can be held under them and the leaves snipped directly on to it in pieces small enough for use. The cutting of the leaves does not injure the plant in any way; it seems rather to stimulate its growth and to make it more vigorous and thrifty. The uses of the chive as a flavoring material are as numerous as those of the more familiar member of the same family—the onion; wherever chopped onion is used chopped chives may be substituted. A few special uses may, however, be mentioned. In very finely chopped condition it is an attractive addition to cottage cheese (see Farmers' Bulletin 387, Cheese and Its Economical Use in the Diet, and Farmers' Bulletin 413, The Care of Milk and Its Use in the Home), or other soft cream cheese and such mixtures may be used as sandwich fillings. It can be added to omelets and to milk sauces and soups. As an addition to plain lettuce salad it has almost no equal, the amount to be used depending, of course, upon the favor with which onion-like seasonings are held in the family. Still another advantage may be mentioned. The chive is dark green in color and offers a pleasing contrast to the white of milk sauce or cottage cheese or to the yellow of salad dressing, thus attracting the eye as well as the palate. A Ballad of Vegetables. "That's pit for me," observed the squash, And all the beets turned red. "Go 'way,' the onion weepingly cried; "Your love I cannot be." Your love I cannot be. The pumpkin be your lawful bride— You cantaloupe with me." But onward still the tuber came, And lay down at her feet; "You cauliflower a flower by any name And it would smell as wheat; And I, too, am an early rose, And you I've come to see; So don't turnip your lovely nose, But spinach with me." "I do not carrot at all to wed; So go, sir, if you please," The modest onion meekly said, "And lettuce, pray, have peas!" Go, think that you have never seen Myself or smelled my sigh; Too long a maiden I have been For favors in your rye." "Ah, spare a cuss," the tuber prayed; "My chrysalied bride you'll be; You are the only weeping maid That currant now for me." And as the wily tuber spoke, He caught her by surprise, And giving her an artichoke, Devoured her with his eyes. Exchange "Does your son take after you?" "No. I'm afraid we're a little at odds in our ideas. He wants to wear a high hat and evening clothes, while I have a fancy for going hunting and looking like a boy scout." FOR THE BEST SHORTCAKE Recipe From New England, Where It Is Said the Delicacy Was First Made. It is said that strawberry shortcake originated in New England and wild strawberries were first used in it. If you have eaten such a shortcake, made where "the wild strawberries grow," you know how superior it is to the ordinary kind. However, we must content ourselves with cultivated berries. Reserve enough of the finest berries from two quarts to cover the top of your cake. Cut the remaining berries in half, or slice if large; sugar well and stand for an hour, at least. Make your cake with three pints of sifted pastry flour, three teaspoonfuls of cream of tartar and a teaspoonful of salt sifted in. Rub in two tablespoonfuls of butter and one of lard. Mix it with a pint of milk with a teaspoonful of soda dissolved in it. Three teaspoonfuls of baking powder may replace the cream of tartar and soda. Roll or pat out half an inch thick, and bake in either one or two cakes in a quick oven for fifteen or twenty minutes. Split the cake open—do not cut it—as soon as baked, as cutting while hot will make it heavy. Butter both top and bottom portions and spread each with a thick layer of berries; put together and serve with good rich cream—plain. Use whipped cream only for sweet strawberry cake. FOR BUSY HOUSEWIVES Knives which have been used for onions and smell of them can be cleaned by drawing them through a piece of carrot two or three times. To remove hot-water marks from japanned trays use sweet oil. Rub it in well till all marks disappear, then polish the tray with dry flour and a soft cloth. When gilt frames or molding of rooms have specks of dirt from flies and other causes upon them they may be cleaned with white of egg applied with a camel-hair brush. Peel onions from the root upward and they will not make your eyes smart. Save cold tea left from supper and use in place of water on your house plants. Starch should be mixed with soapy water, for thus the linen will have a more glossy appearance and be less likely to stick to the iron. Silver teapots that have not been used for some time get musty and so give a peculiar flavor. This can be prevented by putting a lump of sugar into the pot before putting away. Poor Man's Mushrooms Radishes have always been considered good only to eat raw. Try the following when mushrooms are at a premium: Peel and slice large radishes, and when you put your steak in the pan turn in the sliced radishes and allow them to cook in the juice of the steak until quite brown. Before taking them out put in a generous piece of butter. Season with salt and pepper. They can hardly be detected from the real article. Radishes are always very good when boiled as turnips. Boil until very soft, season, mash and cream.-Delineator. Cornstarch Fig Pudding. Three cupful milk, one-half cupful cornstarch, one-fourth cupful sugar, one-fourth level teaspoonful salt, whites two eggs, six figs sliced and cut in small pieces. Scald the milk in double boiler. Mix cornstarch, sugar and milk. Add to the hot milk and stir until thick and smooth. Add the figs, cover and cook for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. Beat the whites of eggs stiff and add the hot mixture gradually, beating it in. Pour into mold wet with cold water and chill. Serve with cream. May be served hot if desired. Scalloped Mutton. Cut cold mutton into thin little pieces. For each cupful of meat add one-half teaspoonful of salt and bit of pepper. Butter a baking dish, cover bottom with bread crumbs, then a layer of meat, with a little gravy or tomato sauce. Continue until dish's full. Cover top with thin slices of raw potato, dot with butter, cover close and bake 45 minutes; uncover and brown 15 minutes. Baked Sliced Ham. Place in baking pan a slice of ham cut one inch thick; if the ham is not mild it should be soaked in cold water an hour. Sprinkle on top a little powdered mustard, two tablespoonfuls brown sugar, two tablespoonfuls vinegar, add little water and bake about forty minutes, basting often. Add a little boiling water to the gravy, but do not thicken. Sausage Sandwiches Put small sausages on a baking dish and set in a hot oven. Turn occasionally until brown on all sides. Cool slightly and split lengthwise with a sharp knife. Butter a thin slice of brown bread lightly, lay on a crisp lettuce leaf, then the sausage and last another slice of bread. Grapefruit Salad. To use grapefruit as a salad remove the pulp from the rind and add to lettuce leaves with chopped nuts or celery. Serve with either mayonnaise or French dressing. Arrowroot for Fruit Juices. Use arrowroot to thicken fruit juices. It cooks clearly and does not destroy the color, nor cloud the transparency of the fruit. SUBMIT FOUR NEW MEASURES AT FALL ELECTION. Sixteen New Questions Now Filed, Including Probation of Adults and Extension of Referendum. Denver. Four petitions for proposed constitutional amendments and laws, among them one affecting juries, whereby women will be allowed to serve, have been filed with the secretary of state by the Colorado Social Service League. The four measures will be submitted to the people at the fall election. This makes a total of sixteen questions on file for determination by the electorate at the fall election. The jury petition is known as the jury reform bill and provides that three-fourths of the jurors in a civil case may find a verdict. It is intended to abolish the expense of two trials. It permits women to serve on juries only in case they wish to serve. It gives women the right to refuse to serve without assigning any cause. The jury petition was circulated in the form of 332 petitions and received 24,407 signatures. According to provision of law, 20,000 names were necessary to bring the petition to the legal form before it could be considered. Other petitions of the Special Service League provide for: an amendment to the state statutes to allow probation of adult prisoners; for the appointment of a women's and children's welfare commission to codify the laws of the state concerning women and children, and another petition for a constitutional amendment to extend the power of the people under the initiative and referendum to permit the people to vote on initiative and referendum questions at special as well as at general elections. Petitions for a law making the terms of office of county judges, district attorneys, judges of the Juvenile Courts and county officers of equal length as those of the district judges have been put in circulation. Those behind the petitions hope to obtain a sufficient number of signatures in time to enable them to put the proposed change upon the ballot at the November election. District judges, at the present time, are elected for six years, while county judges, district attorneys and the others whose terms of office it is proposed to change are elected for a four-year term. Urge Initiation of Good Roads Bill. Denver.-Promotion of the proposed initiated good roads bill was urged at the conference of state highway commissioners with officers of the Colorado Good Roads Association. The urging of the one-half mill levy as a state-wide proposition was discussed at a luncheon. Approximately $200,000 will be allotted to the sixty-two counties of the state during 1914, according to T. J. Ehrhardt, state highway commissioner. About $600,000 a year would be realized by the state for the expansion of its roads, should the bill become a law. "Of the necessary 18,000 signatures necessary for its initiation, more than 12,000 have been obtained," Ehrhardt said. "An annual appropriation through this source of $600,000 for five years would place the state roads in an ideal condition." E. E. Sommers, president, represented the Colorado Good Roads Association. Others present were R. H. Higgins, president of the State Association of County Commissioners; L. E. Curtis, Colorado Springs; Charles R. McLain, Canion City, and John M. Kuykendall, Denver, members of the highway commission. Signboards Barred from State Roads. Denver—Signboard advertising is to be forever barred from the rights of way of state roads, according to an edict issued by the state highway commission and certified to the various boards of county commissioners in the state for execution. Special attention is called to the statute prohibiting the painting of signs on bridges, rocks or on the ground, with a view to checking the tendency of the ubiquitous advertiser from using Colorado's famous scenic effects for exploiting the merits of a baby food or any other article of commerce. Ask Good Roads Tax Amendment Denver.—Good roads petitions are being circulated by men who volunteered their services at a luncheon given by the Denver Motor Club. The petitions call for the initiation of an amendment to the constitution which will provide for a half-mill tax levy to be used for the improvement of roads. Board Adds $4,000,000 to Tax Values. Denver.—Increase of $4,000,000 in the assessed valuation, for taxation purposes, of the public service corporations of Colorado has been made by the state tax commission for 1914. The total is $264,120,725. Last year it was $260,241,995. Ten Pharmacists Pass Quiz. Denver.—Ten registered pharmacists passed the examinations held in Denver June 13 and 14. Eight others passed as assistant pharmacists. The ten who passed the chief pharmacist teses are: Frantz F. Berg, Rolland P. Cape, Harry B. Ausburn, all of Colorado Springs; Carl F. L. Miller, Hugo; Harold A. Parkinson, Glenwood Springs; Cuv A. Schraeder, Fort Morgan; Kenneth A. Lea, Leadville; Ernest E. Williams, Rex Harrington and Thomas H. Brown, all of Denver. J. R.

DURING THE PAST WEEK RECORD OF IMPORTANT EVENTS CONDENSED FOR BUSY Western Newspaper Union News Service. WESTERN. Mount Lassen is not a geyser. Its action, since it first broke into eruption on May 30, has been decidedly volcanic. Prof. E. L. Enloe was elected president of the New Mexico State Normal School at Silver City to succeed Dr. C. M. Light. Scores were driven from their homes, wheat fields swept away, corn damaged and much live stock lost as a result of the heaviest rain in Kansas in years. More than 1,000 delegates and visitors were present at East St. Louis, Ill., when the Eleventh Annual Encampment of the United Spanish War Veterans, Department of Illinois, got under way. One man was killed, three seriously wounded and the town thrown in a panic Tuesday night, when the labor forces clashed following an attempt of Charles H. Moyer of Denver to speak at Union hall in Butte, Mont. Mucky McDonald, president of the seceders from Butte Miners' Union No. 1, stood pat on a declaration that miners of Utah and Michigan would break from the Western Federation of Miners into a new organization. Twelve million dollars is the estimated amount for which seventeen railroads, operating as initial, connecting or terminal carriers into the intermountain district are liable in refunds to shippers who had paid the rates demanded for the last two years by the railroads for commodity freight. The Interstate Commerce Commission issued an order to railroads compelling them to refund more than $100,000, with interest, to wool growers of Colorado, Wyoming, Utah, Nebraska, Nevada, Idaho, New Mexico and Montana. The commission held that the roads carried the clip to Eastern markets at an excessive rate. What has become of Ethel Wilcox 18, ward of the Wyoming State Humane Society and charge of the Denver House of Good Shepherd? The question is being asked by two sheriffs, the Humane Society and the District Court of Platte county, Wyo., where she was to appear as principal witness in the trial of Henry Webb, world champion broncho buster, and Jimmy Hunton, noted rough rider, against whom she recently brought serious charges. WASHINGTON. Secretary McAdoo received a $620 contribution to the conscience fund from somebody in Burlington, Iowa. The House again went on record for exempting labor unions from prosecution under the anti-trust laws. Reports of further rebel victories in Santa Domingo de Hayti were cabled to the navy department by Captain Russell of the battleship South Carolina. President Wilson accepted an invitation to become honorary president of the International Longfellow Society, an organization to preserve the birthplace of the poet at Portland, Me. President Wilson believes that when the Columbian and Nicaraguan treaties are understood, they will be amply supported in the Senate. There is some opposition to the proposed payment of $25,000,000 to Columbia. Reports that Germany and France, dissatisfied with Haiti's payments of debts to their nations, were about to seize the customs house, when brought to the attention of Secretary Bryan, brought out the statement that neither government has intimated any dissatisfaction to the United States. United States Supreme Court decision in intermountain rate cases reduces rate on more than 100 household commodities. Gives Interstate Commerce Commission power to fix "zone" rates. Permits higher rates for short hauls than for long hauls. Paves way for future-reductions in freight rates to Denver from Eastern points. Some of the commodities which are reduced about 25c per hundred-weight: Cotton, wool, silk, meats, canned goods, flour, coffee, tea, syrup, furniture, wire, nails, groceries, fruits. The United States Supreme Court upheld the Philippine line act of 1906 placing all interstate commerce commission regulation, as constitutional, but not applicable to the Uncle Sam Oil Company. Transcontinental railways won their fight for title to $700,000,000 worth of oil lands when the Supreme Court held void the clause in the patents making the land revert to the government if found to contain minerals. John H. Lambis, superintendent of the mint at Philadelphia, resigned. He had held the position since 1902. FOREIGN. Figures of the census of the city of Buenos Ayres, recently taken, show the number of inhabitants to be 1,560,163. In 1900 the total was $21,291. Cablegrams from China report devastation by floods involving thousands of lives. The damage to property and crops is estimated at more than $5,000,000 around the West river. The vaults of the Swiss banks are stated to be literally crammed with securities sent to Geneva from France and Germany by persons who desire to avoid heavy surtaxes laid on capital in those countries. Queen Mary is now a colonel in the British army, while corresponding rank is held by Queen Alexandra and two princesses. These appointments, the first of the kind ever made in the British army, were announced as a novel feature of the birthday honors. John D. Rockefeller has sent Miss Eva Booth, commander of the Salvation Army in America, $11,000 for the fund being raised for the sufferers of the Empress of Ireland disaster. Miss Booth is in London attending the world's congress of the Salvation Army. It is announced that Sir Joseph Beecham has purchased the Covent Garden estate in London from the Duke of Bedford. It covers nineteen acres and includes the Covent Garden market. Covent Garden opera house and Drury Lane theater. The price exceeds $12,000,000. All the passengers, numbering 130 emigrants, and 86 of the crew, were safely transferred to the Lyonnesse and landed at Hughtown, St. Mary's island, the capital of the group, when the Belgium steamer Gothland from Montreal for Rotterdam, laden with grain, struck the rocks near Bishop lighthouse, off Scilly island, in a dense fog. SPORT. President Ban Johnson of the American league said at Chicago that there will be no third major league this season, if at all. "The third league idea was merely suggested to the national commission, and it is merely a possibility. No definite action was taken at our meeting in New York." Nine aviators lost their lives when a mimic war in the air was suddenly turned into a tragic reality by accidentally ripping a dirigible air ship by a bi-plane, while both were flying at a great height during the Austrian army maneuvers at Vienna. Both crafts were destroyed. The occupants, nine military, naval officers and noncommissioned officers, were burned and mutilated beyond recognition. The form players jumped into the lead in the first race at Overland park Tuesday afternoon, when they went to Orba Smile and won first blood at the nice price of 13 to 10. Eck Davis came along in the next and delivered at 11 to 10. Shinny B. failed to come across. So did Waldo and Paw, but Bertha V. at 3 to 2 wound up a good day's sport with the balance on the side of the form players. Milton Barber, Voladay, Jr., and Silver Tone were the long shots to go over. Milton Barber won the fifth race at better than 6 to 1, Voladay, Jr., his race at better than 13 to 1 and Silver Tone placed at the long price of 18 to 1 in the seventh. GENERAL The Portuguese cabinet was reconstructed as follows: Premier, minister interior and minister of foreign affairs, Bernardino Machado; justice, Manoel Montalto; finance, Santos Lucas; war, Gen. Antonio Pereira d'Eca; marine, Peres Rodriguez; public works, Almeida Lima; colonies, Coucairo Costa. "It is an insane thing not to recognize organizations of labor," said John Wanamaker in Philadelphia, in giving further testimony before the United States commission on industrial relations. He made this statement in reply to a question whether employers should recognize labor unions. On the general question of unionism, Mr. Wanamaker said he believed labor had "suffered frightfully" in the past because of poor leaders, but added that he is seeing a better class of leadership coming in.

WEATHER CROP REPORT CROPS HAVE MADE SATISFACTORY PROGRESS IN COLORADO. Sugar Beets and Small Grain Making Rapid Growth and Garden Truck Doing Well. Western Newspaper Union News Service. Denver.—F. H. Brandenburg, district forecaster of the weather and crop bureau, in his weekly report, says: At the opening of the week moderate to heavy rain fell over the greater part of the state east of the mountains. These rains were timely and fell over sections of the state where most needed. Fairly well distributed showers occurred in the counties on the Western slope. The moisture was generally ample for crop growth. Temperature conditions were practically normal in the eastern half of the state; in the western half the weather was somewhat cooler than the seasonal average. The days were warm and the sunshine abundant; the nights, however, were relatively cool. For the state as a whole weather conditions have been favorable and crops have made satisfactory progress. Some damage has been caused by hail, especially in Boulder county. Alfalfa in localities in the western part of the state has been beaten down by wind and rain, but the damage has not been great. Sugar beets are making rapid growth, also small grain. Garden truck, corn and potatoes are doing well. Cutting of the first crop of alfalfa is progressing rapidly, the quality as well as the yield being good. Early fruits are being gathered in the southwestern part of the state. Find Rich Silver Ore Near Pitkin. Pitkin.—A discovery of ore which averages 338 ounces of silver to the ton and 24 per cent in lead in five tests has been made five miles northeast of Pitkin county by A. L. Pearson, son of State Senator John F. Pearson, and associates. Senator Pearson said that the tests have shown a variation from 70 ounces in silver to 1,094 ounces. News of the strike has led many prospectors in the neighboring country to rush to the point to take up claims. Those associated with young Pearson are W. B. Miller and Wallace Rede, both of Pitkin. The location of the discovery is between Pitkin and White Pine, which was once a heavily producing camp. It is fortunately situated upon the line of a state highway which is now being built and is five miles from Juanita Hot Springs. Senator Pearson describes the ore as of the same formation as that in the famous Park City, Utah, mines. The vein is about three feet in width and gives one foot of ore. It was found twelve feet below the surface. The gold runs from $2 to $4 a ton. Confesses Attack on Girl Boulder—At the sheriff's office, under the cross-questioning of Deputy District Attorney Martin, Charles Gasmann, the chef at Cook's restaurant, who was arrested in connection with the attack on Miss Elsie Shannon, who was stabbed in the back as she was walking to the home of C. E. Coulehan, broke down and confessed that he was guilty. He did not know the girl, he said, and had absolutely no motive for attacking her. He said that he could not explain, except by saying that a strange feeling came upon him. His confession strengthens the belief that he is irrational, although Sheriff Buster said that he thought Gasmann might be shamming. If he could get himself committed to the insane asylum it would be but a short time, in all probability, before he would be released. Slope Range War Opens Again. Grand Junction.—Another serious clash between sheep men and cattle men in this territory broke out when Frank Greening, an employe of the Utah Hide and Livestock Company, was ordered at the point of revolvers, it is alleged, to remove 2,000 head of sheep off the range claimed by the cattle men.

LUP 355 DENVER, COLORADO COLORADO M AMONG many of the new gowns designed for dinner or reception wear, and in the majority of those made for dancing, the frugality of the designers in using material for bodices is remarkable. In the French establishments sleeves appear to have been forgotten or as not belonging in the scheme of things. No one possessing the best sense of clothes can call these efforts the best art. They have been described as "beautifully indecent" clothes, but clothing which leaves out the element of modesty does not deserve the name of clothing. Beauty of fabric and beauty of line are not all that are required to make a beautiful gown. There are sleeveless gowns, like the splendid model shown here, by Vagamey, in which the bodice is so well managed that the uncovered arms are Millinery Worn at the Wedding 5 A ONE of the loveliest of the many beautiful hats worn at the wedding of Miss Wilson is pictured here. It was designed by Kurzman for the bride's sister, Mrs. Francis B. Sayre, and is a fine example of what may be achieved with familiar materials and a simple shape, in the way of an unusual piece of millinery. Nearly all the hats made for the bride were in blue, and several of the various "sailor" shapes were chosen by her. Blue, in fact, seems to be a favorite color with all the members of the family. The hat worn by Miss Margaret Wilson was an exquisite shade of blue maline, and the bride provided her trousseau with one hat having a blue straw brim and a blue maline crown with moire ribbon bows at front and back. There was also a Georgette sailor of shiny blue straw trimmed with small blue tips and a rose at the left side. Another sailor, in Alice blue, was beautifully featured. And no one objects to the display of a perfect arm when the whole makeup of the toilette speaks refinement, showing a daring mode interpreted by a line taste. A creepy silk in black, with white Venice lace and chiffon used for drapery, are the materials with which the artist has wrought out the superb dress that is so good in all details. The skirt follows the lines of the figure, draping it, with plenty of fulness for freedom of movement. There is a short "mermaid" train. The bodice of chiffon, silk and lace is arranged with a V-shaped open' at the back and front, and the drapery is ample and graceful. A little embroidery in coque de roche and two very handsome ornaments adorn the narrow girdle. [Image of a helmet with a curved visor and a decorative band.] trimmed with dainty blue wings. The lovely hat shown here was a large shape of fine wire covered with many thicknesses of maline in a delicate shade of salmon pink. The entire crown and upper brim were covered with black horsehair lace. On the under brim a black maline flange appears about two inches wide. A band of wide black velvet ribbon, finished with a knot and pointed ends, was laid about the crown. Three small blue and pink French bouquets with foliage were set on the black velvet band. For the bride's mother a large black hat or horsehair lace was made, trimmed with maline bow underneath, and in lieu of the aigrette, a cluster of burnt ostrich fancy feathers was mounted for the trimming. For the heron aigrette appears to be very much taboo in this first family of America. JULIA BOTTOMLEY.
