PATRONIZE MERCHANTS WHO ADV. IN THE PEOPLE'S PAPER THE COLORADO STATESMAN THE JOURNAL OF THE WEST. LABOR SHALL BE FREE RACE COUNTRY PARTY AN UNWAR- RANTED RE- CEPTION VOL. XX. AN UNV RANT (Idaho Springs Siftings—News) On June 16, Mayor Geo. A. McClelland received a letter from Mr. J. F. Sylvester Jr. a representative of the Hot Springs Hotel Company in Denver, and who was very earnest and successful in booking excursions for this city. In his letter he stated that "We have signed up eight different picnics, which will be in Idaho Springs within the next six weeks." In this letter he also stated that "I would suggest that if the various improvements on the grounds which you suggested sometime ago had not been completed, that they be hastened along so these folks will have adequate accommodation." The Mayor and council had benches and tables made and two ovens built near the hot springs for these accommodations and they have been used by all the excursions that have been solicited to come here by the representatives of the Springs company except the one that was here on Thursday, namely the Central Baptist Church. In the letter that the Mayor received specifying the parties with whom Mr. Sylvester had arranged to hold their picnics here and with whom he had "signed-up" is enumerated. "On Thursday, July 23d, the Central Baptist church (colored) will take up 300 people." In accordance with the agreement "signed up" the members of that denomination came here on Thursday in nine cars and numbering about 375 men, women and children. When they went to the picnic grounds they found that the benches and tables had all been hauled away to the top of reservoir hill and that they were denied the same conveniences of a place to eat and enjoy themselves that had been extended all the other excursionists notwithstanding they had been invited here and arrangements had been made with them by the same parties that had made the other arrangements. At the time these arrangements were made it was known that it was a colored church and if the management considered them undesirable visitors, they should not have been invited. If it subsequently considered them undesirable visitors it should have notified them sometime ago that their excursion was not desired here. These excursion dates were ```markdown ``` published in the Siftings-News and Gazette four weeks ago. Mayor McClelland was called shortly before the excursion train arrived and requested by the management to move the benches and tables to the top of the hill. He politely informed the management that it was through their instrumentality that these excursions were coming here and that each one would be extended the same courtesies regardless of nationality race or color. While he had not arranged for these excursions to come here yet as far as in his power it lay, he would see that all were treated alike and that he would not remove the tables and benches. He was obliged to go to Georgetown on the morning train and when he returned on the first afternoon train, was very much surprised and incensed to hear that the Hot Springs management had taken snap judgment and had these hauled away. This excursion was composed of as orderly, well behaved and considerate a crowd as has been here and after being invited to come here and then treated in the manner in which they were, was nothing less than inexcusable discounty. A large number of these people are employed and have been employed for years by many of the prominent and wealthy families of Denver and no one can doubt for a moment that these influential employers will relish this ignoring of their faithful employes. The railroad company issued them a special train and rates the same as it did all the others. It is certain that a large proportion of the people of this community do not uphold such treatment. The visitors were courteous and they were entitled to the return of the same courtesy. The city authorities had nothing whatever to do with this treatment and do not sanction or endorse it in the slightest degree. The Haitian debt is about $35,000,000 and more than half of this is owned to the French government. France and Germany want to establish an international commission form of government for the purpose of handling the Haitian government objects to this, claiming that it has always been able to meet the interest on the debt. DENVER COLORADO SATURDAY, AUGUST 1 1914 State Hist & Nat Hist Society State House ANTS WHO ADO E JOURNAL DENVER COLORADO Georgia Oddfellows Wealthy Institution Atlanta, Ga.—Collecting in June the sum of $32,000, and handling an annual income of between $300,000 and $325,000, the office of the district grand secretary, Benjamin J. Davis is one of the busiest places in this city. The offices occupy the entire fourth floor of the Odd Fellows Headquarters building, and forty girls are required to do the work. A large sum is paid to the office force monthly, salaries ranging from $100 to $30 a month. The order in Georgia has accumulated during the past ten years of District Grand Master B. S. Ingram's administration more than a half million dollars in property and pays annually to the support of the Sub-Committee of Management approximately $5,000. Seventeen hundred branches in the State comprise 60,000 members 35,000 men and 25,000 women. Under Grand Master Ingram and Secretaey Davis the order has been able to make loans to members and institutions throughout the State which have been of incalculable value in relieving financial stress. While the object is to confine the loans to small amounts that the greatest number might be benefitted, several larger loans have been made. A loan of $18,000 was made to Morris Brown University, Atlanta, and $12,000 was placed with the Walker Baptist Institute, Augusta, which enabled that institution to centralize all its obligations and make certain much-needed improvements. Loans to the amount of $150,000 have been made to members, schools and colleges. Occupying the block between Bell and Butler streets, facing on Auburn avenue, with a frontage of 204 feet on Bell and Butler streets, are two buildings, the Odd Fellows' headquarters and the Odd Fellows' auditorium. Their combined values total $253,000, every dollar of which has been paid. The headquarters building is six stories. There are six stores on the first floor, forty-two offices on the second, third and fourth floors and six lodge rooms on the fifth floor. This building rents for $6,000 a year and all space is taken. The order owns otaer property in the city valued at approximately $50,000, stocks and bonds worth $40,000, besides considerable other property throughout the State. Besides the loans to members and institutions, the order has come to the financial rescue of two of the leading Negro business or organizations in Georgia, the Standard Life Insurance Company and the Atlanta Savings Bank. The last $10,000 needed to complete the capital stock of the insurance company was subcribed by the order, making possible the purchase of the registered bonds required by the State insurance law to be deposited with the State Treasurer. When the bank was chartered last year Secretary Davis took in hand the disposal of $8,000 worth of stock which was necessary to the perfecting of the incorporation. The order subscribed to $6,000 of this amount. Henry Lincoln Johnson, late Recorder of Deeds in Washington, is attorney for the Georgia Odd Fellows, and has taken a suite of offices in the headquarters building. He is a candidate for Grand Master at the B. M. C. in Boston in September and has the united support of the Georgia jurisdiction. WHITE MAN TRIES TO RAPE SMALL GIRL A mother's careful teaching not only saved a child from his honor and abuse but brought to light the fact that inhuman monsters in guise of men roam about the city parks just as they do in the South. But the law in Chicago is still a fact and not a myth. ATTACKS GIRL IN PARK Tuesday of last week the ten-year-old daughter of C. L. Stevenson, 4712 State street, was strolling in Washington Park when she was approached by a white man who proved to be Harry K. Jones, employed as a guard on the South Side Elevated Railroad, who attempted to assault her. The child's agonizing screams attracted the attention of Park Policeman H. C. Dibble, who came running to her assistance. The culprit shrunk away, but not before Detectives O'Brien and Sheehan of the 50th street station saw him. They followed him to his home, 322 E. 53rd street. He shut himself in and pulled down the curtains and refused to open the door when they knocked. Detectives Baird and Hobbs had by this time appeared on the scene. Detective O'Brien then broke in a back window and they found the man alone holding a loaded revolver in his hand. He was put under arrest and taken to the 50th street police station. Assistant State's Attorney Finn promises to vigorously push the case. The forethought of the child in carrying out her parents advice to scream if ever she was molested fortunately saved her from harm, but it in no wise mitigates the criminal intent of Jones, who should be given the full extent of the law. So called Mann act violations fill the columns of the daily press but no mention of a dastardly crime like this. RACE NEWS GATHERED FROM VARIOUS SOURCES Cincinnati, O., July 18.—Word has been received by Father Cleary of St. Ann's Church on John St., that Mother Catherine Drexel will arrive next Monday from Philadelphia with four sisters, who are to take charge of the work in the St. Ann School for next year. This is a school exclusively for colored children. Mother Drexel, who was known in the world as Catherine Drexel, a society belle of Philadelphia, and daughter of a wealthy banker, will remain until the work for next year is organized. Father Cleary will assist in the work. Shreveport, La., July 23.—In a petition just filed by the Shreveport Colored Business Men's League and other local race leaders, officials of railways operating here and in other Southern territory are requested to provide "the same class and quality of accommodations for colored passengers as are provided for the most favored class of travelers," and also "such regulations as will protect colored passengers from the rudeness and insults of the employes of the railroads." Steel cars, smokers, sleeping or reclining chair cars and facilities for serving food on the train are especially demanded in the petition. All conveniences and comforts given white passengers are sought. Hampton, Va.—Dr. Hollis B. Frissell, principal of Hampton Institute, delivered the chief address on Wednesday afternoon, July 15, at the laying of the cornerstone of James' Hall; the new dormitory for boys, the money for which has been given by Mrs. D. Willis James, of New York City, who is the widow of a well-known philanthropic merchant prince. Mr. James himself was a devoted friend of Hampton Institute. Arthur Curtiss James, the son of D. Willis James, is a trustee of Hampton. Dr. Frissell called attention to the love for Hampton which had been handed from father to son and which was now to find new expression in a modern four-story brick, fireproof dormitory which will accommodate about 175 boys Birmingham, Ala., July 21. The Board of Commissioners of the city of Birmingham have had before them for several days a resolution which had for its object the segregation of the white and colored people in this city. When the matter was brought to the attention of the colored peo- NO 49 ple a few of the business and professional men quietly organized a little campaign among themselves. They got the leading colored people and white people and with their united forces made an effort to defeat the proposed ordinance The colored people went before the Board of Commissioners, who received them in a most courteous and kindly way, and after the colored people were heard a unanimous vote was passed to postpone any action looking toward segregation of the races in Birmingham. This is taken to mean that the proposed action is dead. S. W. Green, head of the Knights of Pythias, has instituted suit against the L. & N. Railroad of Florida to recover damages for assault perpetrated upon him while a passenger a year ago. The great Pythian Order of which he is the Supreme Chancellor, has undertaken to aid in pushing the matter. Without a doubt this suit will become of national interest and the race itself so fully realize its vital significance that the plan of financing the prosecution of the suit will have hearty support. The attack upon Supreme Chancellor Green was so unprovoked that it aroused intense indignation at the time. It was a demonstration of the mob spirit in all its hateful nakedness. There was in the assault upon Mr. Green an illustration of the lack of protection any Raceman has if the ire of prejudice is aroused. Its prosecution would tend to make all Southern carriers more careful to provide all the protection possible to their passengers. PAINTINGSACCEPTED William E. Scott, the artist from Indianapolis studying in Paris, left two pictures when returning to America, to be submitted, one to the jury for the Paris salon and the other for the jury for the Royal Academy exhibition in London. Both of them were accepted. The painting accepted by the Royal Academy is entitled "Silver Sun at Boulogne"—a gray day, the city in the foreground, the harbor in the background, and the sun's light shifting through the grayness. The saloon picture is a much larger canvas. In front of the hulk of an old vessel stands an aged sailor and a little boy, the old man critically examining a toy boat which the boy has whittled with his knife. This picture is named "Le Connoisseur." 32nd Anniversary Gift Sale We are going to give away free $100. Why?

Jaffa of Trinidad, pioneer merchant and city treasurer, was by unanimous vote re-elected president of the Retail Merchants' Association of Colorado. Two children of Perenio Ruiz, a ranchman, a boy six years and an infant three weeks old, were swept away and drowned in the high water of the Purgatoire river, near Hochne. Mrs. P. Martin suffered a broken leg, Mrs. Paul Stewart was severely injured and two children, one a baby, were bruised when a team of Shetland ponies ran away at Fort Collins. Olive Bradish, sixteen, daughter of Mrs. Julia Bradish and a student in the La Junta high school, was drowned in the Arkansas river. The girl's body was recovered half an hour later. Suicide and death claimed five residents of Weld county in twenty-four hours. One died by his own hand, two as the result of operations and two from natural causes. Two were picneers. Miss Veda Foster, popular young teacher of Loveland, is dead from injuries received in a fall from her horse. The accident resulted from the slippery condition of the streets after a shower. Mrs. Mae Gates Oller Current, at her home in Denver denied that she was in Denver to help her former husband, William D. Current, who was recently sentenced to a year in the penitentiary on the charge of fraud. The secret marriage of John Morgan, son of Judge Morgan of the Colorado Court of Appeals, and Jean Johnson was revealed in Denver after young Morgan's mother had left for a trip through the East. That neither W. T. Harpel nor P. E. Chamberlain was elected mayor of Eldora last fall, but that each candidate had eighteen votes, was the judgment of County Judge Ira C. Rothgerber of Denver in the Eldora election contest. President Wilson has decided, almost definitely, to come to Colorado this fall to aid the Democratic congressional nominees in their campaign for election. This announcement came from Washington. It was said that the President probably would make but one speech, and that in Denver. Leaving behind him a trail of broken hearts and engagements, and taking with him a dozen rings and valuable trinkets reposed in his care by trusting girls, S. Anthony Hendrickson was missing from his familiar haunts in Grand Junction. Charges that money was paid to Dr. F. F. Graves, head of the Denver city excise department, for protection by a number of Japanese restaurant keepers, were flatly denied by Itow, proprietor of a Japanese restaurant, at the hearing held at the city hall by Commissioner of Finance Pitcher.

Ewing, in referring to the Kaw Valley Truck Farm company. "We aim to come to Kansas City and hire our help. Men who are loafing around the street corners now will be given an opportunity to earn good wages and also will be taught practical farming in all its branches. "We are now employing nine men at the farm and will have employment for 60 when harvest time comes. As fast as our capital will permit we will lease other lands, carrying out the same system in vogue at our present location, which we call Farm No. 1. Judge Sims of Kansas City, Kan., has promised that he will parole to us some of the negroes sentenced for minor offenses, so that we may make better men of them." Among some of the ideas Ewing has put to practical use in his plan for intensive farming is in the raising of spinach. This he drills in and cultivates thoroughly, resulting in a plant that commands a ready market. Between the spinach rows he plants tomato vines. In 20 days the spinach is harvested and the tomato plants are in shape to furnish another good crop from the same piece of ground. In one plot of 20 acres on the association farm he has watermelons, tomatoes and turnips. Between the watermelon rows are two rows of turnips, and between the turnip rows a row of tomatoes are planted. The watermelon vines curling around the tomato plants steady them during hard winds, resulting in a sturdier plant, while the tomato plants furnish shade for the watermelons, each benefiting the other and at the same time making the ground produce twice what it otherwise would. While a board of directors controls the Kaw Valley Truck Farm company, the farm work is under the direct management of Ewing. The officers are: Rev. J. R. Richardson, president; Rev. Bowen, vice-president; Rev. D. B. Jackson, treasurer; H. P. Ewing, secretary and manager; Rev. George McNeal, assistant treasurer; Nick Chiles, auditor; J. F. Bradley, attorney.—Kansas City Star. No wonder the colored men, with the habits and traditions inherited from slave ancestors, tends to idle self-indulgence, where work is to be had for the asking, and food to be obtained by the occasional use of net, rod, or gun. A colored family can be brought up in rude abundance if the head of the household earns in cash even as little as $150 or $200 a year, and this he can do by working two days a week. On most of the tidal streams a boy of ten can supply the family with fish much of the year by tending a set net morning and evening. There are basket-making communities where all adults who choose can earn from $1 to $2 a day the year round. There are canneries where men and women are employed for most of the year in canning oysters, vegetables and fruit for nearly ten months out of twelve.—Exchange. Attempts recently were made to grow tobacco commercially in the south of England. In Ireland the department of agriculture for several years has offered substantial bounties in connection with this industry. However, neither in Ireland nor in England has the attempt gone further than the experimental stage. The christening of the steamship Liberia, the "Back to Africa" vessel controlled exclusively by negroes, took place at Galveston, Tex. The Liberia was waiting to take a large number of negroes to Africa under the leadership of A. C. Sam. Speech making and the breaking of a bottle over the bows by an Oklahoma negro girl formed the christening ceremony. New York will have the highest job building so far erected if present plans are carried out. It will be built in Thirtieth street, near Sixth avenue, will be 14 stories tall and will cost about forty-five thousand dollars. It is planned chiefly for the care of women prisoners. In the Malay peninsula an English naturalist has discovered a species of ant that makes its nest in the fleshy stems of ferns that grow on the limbs of trees high in the air. Probably the highest death rate of any city in the world belongs to Cochabamba, Bolivia, where there was a mortality of 75 in each 1,000 last year. The Bank of the Phillipine Islands received about April 1 from the syndicate mine in Masbate a consignment of 500 ounces of gold, valued at $10,000. This makes the second shipment from the same mine in two weeks. The smallest tax bill in New York is on property in 5 strenville. The assessment is $1 and the tax amounts to one cent a year. The city already has spent four cents for postage stamps in an effort to collect the one cent. Creek-Seminole Agricultural college, founded by President J. C. Leftwich, under the Christian churches, is the most potent factor in developing the town, and Christian education and agricultural training among the Indian and negro youths of the town, community and state. Mr. Leftwich founded this college seven years ago, without a dollar begin with, but with the encouragement of J. H. O. Smith, formerly minister of First Christian church of Oklahoma City, Okla.; he ventured to build a large institution. It was believed, among the people of the town, community and state, that to build a school of such character out in the forest, and in a new country, was simply folly and out of the question. Pluck and tenacity dominated the spirit of the young man to try, if but to fail. To the astonishment of all, Mr. Leftwich succeeded, in seven years, in building up a plant valued at $25,000, 300 students, and faculty of eight instructors. Eighty of the students are full-blooded Indians. Mr. Leftwich was succeeding nicely up until the 18th of May, 1912, when his main building burned, at a loss of $10,000; five students were burned to death. This was a great blow to the president and to the college. Mr. Leftwich is still determined to build a great institution, and asks the aid of his brethren in the effort to do so. This is the finest field in America for the brotherhood to help build and foster a college for Indians and negroes President Leftwich has been traveling in the North for 12 months, appealing to the Christian churches to help him in his hour of struggle and trials. He is attempting to raise $8,000. The college proper will be located on 40 acres of land, as an agricultural experiment station. This institution is located in the heart of the red and black belt of Oklahoma, only 20 miles from Craz (Indian) Snake's "Stamp" and camp grounds. This institution now calls on the churches and interested friends to raise $2,000 at once.—Exchange. How long will the negro be upon this step of life's ladder, depending upon the whites for assistance? The monotony is unpleasant to the car in this progressive age. If they have been like the grasshopper, instead of the ant, consider the punishment as the reward. If they had learned self-reliance in the nineteenth century the negro problem would have been solved today. If negro men would form stock companies to purchase lands, erect buildings and establish stores they would not be dependent upon the white union for work. Apparently they have not the necessary confidence.—Exchange. Bohemia has a forest area equal to 29 per cent of its total area, and the quantity of wood cut annually averages 6,474,105 cubic yards, of which 4,316,070 cubic yards are suitable for building and manufacturing, and the remainder for fuel. Bohemia exports annually about one million three hundred and seven thousand cubic yards of forest products to Germany. As a result of promising surface indication of petroleum near Villamartin, a small town 27 miles from Jerez, the Spanish government has appropriated 700,000 pesetas (approximately $126,000) for exploring the region thoroughly, and has sent a force of engineers into the field. Julius Rosenwald of Chicago has sent his check for $25,000 toward the erection of a building for negro men by the Young Men's Christian association of Kansas City. This is the fifth city to receive a like sum for Young Men's Christian association buildings for negroes. Besides Kansas City they are Washington, Philadelphia, Indianapolis and Chicago. A popular drink among the peanuts of Russia is called quass. It is made by pouring warm water over rye or barley meal. It is fermented liquor and is very sour, but has been used for years by these poverty stricken people. Sandy Archer, a former slave, believed to be one hundred and twelve years old, died in Hayden station, Conn., at the home of Mrs. M. E. Garrett. He had lived there for more than sixty years. At the close of 1911 the asylums in Ireland held 24,655 insane, or 5.63 to each 1,000 population. In 1880 it was 2.50 in each 1,000. Philio Thomas of La Prairie, Wis., is wearing a pair of the old style knee-high variety of shoes which he says he bought in Janesville in the spring of 1872, 42 years ago. He has had them rebottomed four times. One of the senior directors of the Hamburg-American line said recently that although the Vaterland is 950 feet long, another ten years was likely to elapse before a thousand-foot liner would be built.

If contentment were an asset that could never be disturbed this assertion might not be regarded as true, but as progress brings power and power ever seeks its own increase, a contented people, and therefore a non-progressive people, is sure, in time, to become the prey and the serf of the restless elements of humanity. That discontent which makes a people strive ceaselessly for greater power is not an attribute of unhappiness, as unhappiness is measured in the minds of men, for the knowledge of increasing power is a greater source of happiness than the knowledge of temporary, but precarious peace and plenty. The assurance of security and the inherent power of self-protection is the greatest asset of happiness that a people can attain, and this condition of self-sufficiency can only be maintained by ceaseless effort and striving. The unequalled power of the Caucasian races has grown out of this unremitting effort for self-security and improvement. It has carried them to the nominal mastery of the world, and made all meek and contented races their subjects or their prey. It is asserted in the individual the same as in the collective race, and is reflected in the pride, the self-assumption and the authority over others which the power of their kind makes them to feel to be their heritage and their right. The development of a similar power in other races is the only thing that preserves the autonomy of those races and gives them respect and independent character and standing in the world. Japan is an illustration of this development. China, too big to be entirely subjugated, but long the object of exploitation, is slowly gathering her might behind the spirit of discontent. India, England's subjected race, is seething with unrest. The Negro remains the only great race on earth that is content. In the depths of barbarity there is no ground for censure, but the Negro in civilization is far too easily satisfied. The liberty for which he strives is not of that insatiable character which yearns for self-reliance and independent power. He has not yet caught the spirit of unrest, though of all freemen his lot is the hardest. Individually he is too content with peace and little. Those who direct the activities of this groping race, ought to endeavor to make more and more keen the discontent and unrest which its real progress depends. ACTIONS OF SMALL MINDS. known fact that little dogs, especially the really cause strife, and so pronounced are the dishonored title of trouble-makers that our plans and worked them disastrously, they being the blooded animals to finish the com e from the Idaho Springs Siftings-News which of this issue we notice the action of the ma tel Company, in the impolite, ungentlemanly, It is a well-known fact that little dogs, especially those without any pedigree, generally cause strife, and so pronounced are they in their eagerness to warrant the dishonored title of trouble-makers that after they have carried out their plans and worked them disastrously, they run off and hide themselves, leaving the blooded animals to finish the combat as best they can. In an article from the Idaho Springs Siftings-News which we publish on the first page of this issue we notice the action of the management of the Hot Springs Hotel Company, in the impolite, ungentlemanly, uncouth and unbusinesslike treatment they measured out to a picnic party of the Central Baptist Church of this city, after they had filled their contract with the company for an outing to their pleasure-resort. The article gives the occurrence in details, which proves as we have always thought and expressed that the trained white man is the possessor of such large-hearted principles, that his nobleness of spirit disallows him engaging in petty actions that would discredit his honor as a man, a blot on his ancestry, and a serious reflection on his intelligence. The striking contrast between the mayor in his refusal to comply with the request of the hotel management to deprive the pleasure-seekers of certain facilities on account of their color, and the action of the management in drawing the line on such insignificant things as the use of park tables and benches, furnishes the proof of the demarkation that exists between certain men of the white race of culture, candor and self-respect and others of their race who have been pitchforked in positions which they never anticipated, as they belong to that class whose motto is "Lower yet and lower still." Little minds produce little acts, which should not be taken notice of, but as there are some things which we must answer according to one's folly, we are compelled to comment on this. Our people may be deprived of park facilities by a few white men who would override a city official's command in a little town, but we are glad that in Denver we have matters so adjusted, that all public places and resorts are under the management of real men and true representatives of the white race.

Purchase Perishable Foods in Smaller Quantities and More Frequently—A Little Intelligent Care All That Is Necessary. The care of foods in the home is a problem that has solved itself to some extent in the last decade. At least it is not so serious a question as it was, for the food supply is more easily reached by both city and village dwellers daily. This allows purchasing perishable foods in smaller quantities and more frequently where one has no refrigerator. Ice is one of our greatest blessings in summer weather and cool running water or a cool basement is in the same class. After once having these comforts it seems as though it would not be possible to do without them. Yet there are thousands of women who have kept house for years and never have had ice or a basement for cooling and preserving food. It is not economy to do without these things but it is good to know that it can be done. Some foods have better keeping qualities than others; with meat, lamb, veal, young chickens and fish are most troublesome to keep. If meat is to be kept any length of time it should be well cooked, as this destroys all germs and bacteria. After it is cooked it must be kept so no more can reach it by being closely covered. However, it must not be absolutely air tight and it must not be covered until it is quite cool. As often as any of the meat is used it should all be heated, as this heating is really the best preservative. The best receptacle to keep any food in is unglazed crockery. Lettuce, radishes and such fresh vegetables should be wrapped in heavy, wet paper and placed in a wet, empty flower pot with a cover over it. Milk will keep sweet longer in a large vessel than in a small one. The best way to keep it without ice is to pour it into an unglazed, wide dish or crock and cover it over with a sheet of cotton. This cotton permits the air to reach the milk, but keeps out all impurities. Set the crock in cold water in the coolest spot you can find. Almost everything can be canned now, and this is the best means of saving left-over fruits. Where you have a cellar, but no ice, keep it cool by airing it for an hour every morning, and then, before the sun grows hot, close it as tightly as possible. See that it is well screened from files and clean and sweet as it can be made. If you have no cellar, but have a yard, look for a shaded place, and have a hole dug there and walled with unglazed brick. Fit this with a trap door, and inside place a zinc or sheet iron box with a close cover. In this you can place a crock of butter, a dozen or two of eggs and a pot of cream and keep them reasonably cool. Such a receptacle is called a "camp-box." If you live within reach of ice, by all means try to have a refrigerator for you can save the cost of ice and its container many times over by buying food in quantities. Many neighbors share their iceboxes, and this is sensible co-operation. If you plan to do that, have a refrigerator with two food compartments and the ice well in the center. Place it in the basement or on the back porch so each can use it without intruding on the privacy of the other. Blackberry Jelly. In making blackberry jelly it is a good plan to have one-third of the juice from barberries or rhubarb, and the other two-thirds from blackberries. The sugar should be in the same proportion as for strawberry jelly. PACKING THE PICNIC BASKET Cracker Boxes Make Excellent Receptacles for Cake and Sandwiches—Care of Beverages. This is the season for picnics, and proper and careful packing of the picnic basket will go far toward the enjoyment of the meal itself. Everything possible should be packed in boxes. Cracker boxes are excellent for cake or sandwiches; but if tin boxes are available, these are even better. Wrap all sandwiches and cake in waxed paper or line the box in which they are placed with waxed paper, in which case a sheet of the paper should also be placed between each two layers of sandwiches or cake Such condiments as salt, pepper and sugar should be placed in small paper bags and then packed all together in a small box. If fruit is taken, especially fruit having a strong flavor and odor, as oranges or bananas, a separate box or basket should be provided, as, while good in themselves, one does not wish everything to be flavored by these fruits. Naturally, only firm, ripe fruit should be used, and it should be carefully cleansed before packing. Such things as olives or pickles are best carried in screwtopped jars; then there is no trouble incurred in getting them out of the container at lunch time. For drinkables, sweetened lemon or orange juice is easily transported, while ice coffee and tea can now be carried in vacuum bottles or jars. These beverages, if properly iced before placing in the vacuum bottles, will retain their coldness until needed. ABOUT THE HOUSE. For darning stockings use crochet cotton. It is preferable to darning cotton, as it does not harden when washed. Scorch marks in linen may be removed by rubbing with a fresh cut onion, the garment being soaked in cold water after. If paint spots stick to window panes do not use a knife to loosen them. A cloth wet in hot vinegar will clean them perfectly. Keep some folded newspapers handy upon which to place solled pots and pans, and save cleaning smutty rings from the tables. To sweeten closets, small pieces of charcoal laid in the corners and upon the shelves of closets will absorb dampness and dispel unpleasant odors. To insure cool butter, put your butter in large jelly glasses with tin covers and set them in a basin and let cold water run slowly around the glass. The butter will not melt in the hottest weather. Pudding With Cherries. One pint milk, three and one-quarter cupfuls flour, three eggs, one tablespoonful melted wbutter, two heaping tablespoonfuls baking powder, one half teaspoonful salt, one pint stoned cherries. Beat the eggs, whites and yolks, together until light; then add the milk, then the flour and beat until smooth; then add the butter melted, salt and baking powder. Drain the cherries, dredge them with flour, stir them into the pudding and turn into a greased mold. Cover, stand in a pot of boiling water and boil continuously for three hours. If the water evaporates in the pot, replenish with boiling water. Serve with fairy butter. Porch Table. The correct wicker table for the porch has a receptacle in center lined with zinc, which may be filled with ice to keep beverages cool or which may be filled with ice cream, mousse or other iced food. The top of this table is fitted with a revolving tray which has a partition at the top into which sandwiches can be placed and sep arate partitions of six or more around the edge, into each of which fits a glass. Thus are table and tray combined in a practical way for summer The Denver's Great Annual Begins Monday, August 3rd and Continues Until Spring and Summer Stocks Are Closed Out Do You Realize What This Week of Final Clearance Means to Our Patrons in Real Economy? A Special Note If the judicious shoppers of Denver give a moment of thought to the fact that THE DENVER MUST NOW FORCE OUT ITS THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS' WORTH OF REMAINING SPRING AND SUMMER MERCHANDISE the big store will be filled to its capacity.

The world's output of calcium carbide in 1913 exceeded 350,000 metric tons, says the Engineering and Mining Journal. The autogenous welding of metals requires a large quantity, about 22,000 tons being consumed for that purpose in Germany, as compa ed with 28,000 tons for illuminating. The price for calcium carbide in Europe was maintained at about £11 10s per ton. The production and price are regulated by a syndicate, which at the end of 1913 was renewed for another term.

Denyer.—By an order issued by the Interstate Commerce Commission, the Union Pacific railroad is permitted to close the Colorado gateways for gen- eral traffic between exclusive points in the Northwest and east of the Mis- sourl river, An order to restore routes and privileges previously in existence on fruit and lumber has been ordered. ‘The order prohibits shippers in Mis- souri sending shipments to points in the northwest on the Union Pacific lines on the Burlington or other roads for delivery to the Union Pacific in Denver. It also prevents shipments by the Denver & Rio Grande for de- livery to the Union Pacific at Ogden, Utah, All shipments destined for points in the Northwest on the lines of the Union Pacific must be delivered to that road at Kansas City or Omaha. The rule applies to both eastern and western shipments. An attempt by the Union Pacific to close the Colorado gateway more than a year ago was prevented by the Inter- state Commerce, Commission, pending a decision, A similar attempt by the Missouri Pacific to close the gateway to all roads cther than the Rio Grande was also stopped.

Fifty Carpenters at Work Guilding Flume to Carry Debris Brought Down by Cloudburst. Western Newspaper Union News Service. ‘Telluride, Colo.—An extended and thorough search by more than 100 men ‘Tuesday failed to reveal trace of the body of Mrs. E. E. Blakeley, wife of a local jeweler, who was drowned with Mrs. John Johnson in the terrific cloudburst which struck Telluride, The body, it is feared, has become lodged in the heavy debris and mud that covers all of the main streets of the town. More than 200 men were put to work in the cleanup arranged at a mass meetingg Their day's work hardly made an impression on the heaps of debris left in the wake of the deluge. Relief has been provided for more than 100 families left homeless in the onslaught of the flood. They are be- ing sheltered in public buildings. Feod and medical attention for a score of injured was provided. Fifty carpenters are at work build- ing a monster flume through which mud and debris will be washed from the town into the San Miguel river. Lights were placed along the proposed course of the flume to permit the employment of three shifts throughout. twenty-four hours. The work will be rushed to completton. Committees were appointed to take charge of rescue and relief work. Donations for the purpose were made by the Smuggler-Union Mining and the Western Colerado Power Companies. About a dozen persons, believed to have perished in the storm have been accounted for. It is estimated that it will require frem six to eight weeks to restore nor- mal conditions in Telluride.

DURING THE PAST WEEK RECORD OF IMPORTANT EVENTS CONDENSED FOR BUSY PEOPLE. Western Newspaper Union News Service. Five persons were injured, Miss Ida King probably fatally, when an automobile struck a rut and somersaulted on a Mena, Ark., street. Suit for divorce was filed at Chicago by Mrs. Trixie Goettler, known on the stage as Trixie Friganza, against Charles A. Goettler, charging cruelty and nonsupport. Thirty workmen were reported entombed by a cavein in the Snoodqualmie tunnel on the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul railroad near Ellansburg, Wash. Ten of the largest forest fires in Western Montana and Northern Idaho this season are raging and the efforts of scores of men have made little progress against the flames. Health of workers and the benefits of systematic supervision were discussed at Chicago at the closing sessions of the hearings before the federal commission on industrial relations. Losses sustained by the four smaller state banks of the Lorimer-Munday chain in Chicago are fast being shouldered by the stockholders, and it is said that all the institutions might soon be habilitated. Mediation in the controversy between the ninety-eight Western railroads and their enginers and firemen scored a victory at Chicago when the men agreed to continue the negotiations with the roads. One woman and three men were killed and two men and two women injured when the automobile in which they were riding was hit by a fast passenger train in the fashionable suburb of Lake Forest at Chicago. With his train speeding sixty miles an hour, Lou Van Vlack of Chicago engineer on the Overland Limited of the Chicago & Northwestern railroad, was found dead as his train speed through Sterling, Ill. His hand was gripping the throttle. Women will act as street car conductors during one day next October on all the lines in St. Joseph, Mo., as the result of an arrangement made by the street railway management and representatives of the Federation of Women's Clubs. All money collected in excess of the regular daily receipts will be given to local charities. WASHINGTON. President Wilson nominated George J. Beams of Lincoln. Neb., receiver of public moneys at Lincoln. Representative Evans of Montana introduced a bill in Congress to prohibit interstate shipment of strikebreakers and arms for use in strikes. "Congress will adjourn by Aug. 28, with the entire trust program cleaned up and the appropriation bills all signed," was the statement of Senator Smoot, Republican leader. Colorado postmasters appointed: Lake Vista, Montezuma county, J. Theodore McDill; South Cañon, Garfield county, Steve McKee; Conifer, Jefferson county, Nellie McNeary. Brigadier General Funston reported that the Mexican federal forces in Mexico City had taken the offensive against the Zapatistas and driven them from nearby towns. He says there are 30,000 federals in the Mexican capital. Abolition of imprisonment for desertion from the navy in times of peace was ordered by Secretary Daniels. Under the new regulations bluejackets who overstay leave or commit similar breaches of discipline will be summarily dismissed instead of being sent to prison, while men who become dissatisfied with the service and want to quit may have an honorable discharge by merely refunding certain enlistment allowances. Secretary Bryan appealed to General Carranza, asking him to call a halt upon Villa, who is reported to be making wholesale demands for horses upon ranch owners in the state of Chihuahua. Consular advices to the State Department also declared the northern general was smuggling arms across the border as rapidly as they were available. There was no doubt in the minds of the people of Chihuahua as to the meaning of Villa's activity, the dispatch to the department added. Advices to the effect that General Carranza is not disposed to make a formal agreement granting amnesty in advance of his actual assumption of power in Mexico City reached Washington from headquarters of the constitutionalist chief. President Wilson is laying plans for an active part in the fall campaign. Candidates in several states have urged the President to help them, and while he has given no definite replies, they are counting on him to make several speeches. Expectation of war between Austria Hungary and Servia and the subsequent declaration demoralized the markets of Europe. Do You Know That— Fifteen coal miners were killed at Dortmound, Germany, by a fire which broke out in the Hansemann pit. Six of their bodies were recovered. The Austro-Hungarian government declared war against Servia by a manifesto which is one of the briefest of history's momentous documents. Germany declares it considers the peace suggestions of the British foreign secretary as well meant and good in principle, but not feasible in practice and impossible to carry out. The COLORADO STATESMAN Madame Henriette Caillaux, accused of murder for the slaying of Gaston Calmette, editor of Figaro, was acquitted at Paris. The jury rendered its verdict ten minutes after it got the case. General Villa was reported as remaining in Chihuahua City, continuing to gather large numbers of recruits into his army and receiving ammunition smuggles across the line. This is taken to mean that he plans an immediate revolt. IS PREPARED TO DO ALL KINDS OF General Carranza at Tampico indicated that he will stand by the decree he issued early in the revolution regarding financial transactions made by Huerta. His attention was called to a report that just before resigning and leaving the country, Huerta received $500,000 from the Rothschilds, giving in return a grant of a vast area in lower California at a nominal price of one cent an acre. Carranza declared no such grant of public lands would be recognized and recalled that leading bankers of the world had been so notified.

Count Otto Salm-Hoogstraeten of Vienna, who has been in this country several months, sailed from New York on the Kronprinzessin Cecelle in response to a cable message from his father instructing him to at once rejoin his company of dragoons, of which he is the captain. The count and his brother, Alexander, were the tennis champions of Austria. Of the four events on the card at Detroit's grand circuit opening, two required six heats each to decide the winner, one race went one extra heat, and the fourth was won in straight heats. In the 2:15 pace, after Ella Mackay had won two heats and View Pointer the third, Major Ong, who had been finishing fast and strong in second position, came through and took the next three.

Prices as Reasonable as Those of Any Job Office in Denver The latest gold movement to Europe which began from New York when $2,000,000 was sent to Paris, was further increased by a shipment of $10,600,000 aboard the liner Kronprinzessin Cecilie. This is said to be the largest single gold shipment ever made from America to Europe. Official advices from Washington to the effect that the district federal reserve bank boards are not to be formally organized until after the federal reserve board at Washington has been formed were received by Gordon Jones of Denver in a telegram from the controller of the currency. The heat wave in northern eastern Iowa was broken when a heavy rain fell. Crops, which had begun to thirst for moisture, were greatly benefited. William V. Cleary, town clerk of Haverstraw, N. Y., who shot and killed his son-in-law, Eugene M. Newman, was held for the action of the September grand jury. Dropping his pretense of insanity, Hans Schmidt, the New York priest, who cut up the body of Anna Aumuler and threw it into the Hudson, through his attorney made a plan for a new trial.

A Bit of Finery for the Small Lady X ONE of the handsomest of the many beautiful lingerie blouses which have added so much to the beauty of apparel this summer, is very clearly pictured here. It is made of fine organdy and depends for its effectiveness upon the fineness of the fabric and the faultlessness of the work as well as upon a fine choice of lace and embroidery used in decorating. The upper part of the blouse is cut in kimono fashion from a piece of the organdy tucked in squares, in tucks an eighth of an inch wide. A panel is set in at the back and front of the plain organdy. Cluny lace edging or some other equally good lace, is used in setting in these panels. The lower part of the blouse back and front is of the plain fabric. The sleeves are finished with a band of the plain organdy to which a net frill is attached by a fine line of hemstitching. Whenever the plain organdy is used a dalinity design in hand embroid- A Bit of Finery NOT all the dresses made for little girls are long waisted. Those designed for dress-up occasions, the late afternoon promenade, or the little lady's appearance at the dinner table, are often made of foulard or other light weight silk, and along the lines pictured here. They are not quite so faultlessly adapted to the childish figure as the longer waisted models, but they afford variety and look well on the too slender bodies of fast-growing children. At this stage ("the awkward age" it is pitilessly called) the mother is put to her wits' end to clothe her little maid attractively. It is ruinous to allow the child to become conscious that she is not as graceful as she will be later on. Let her either be unconscious of her clothes or made to feel that she looks particularly well in any one of her new dresses, and this will help her immensely in carrying her self well. This simple little dress of ring-dot foulard is in mauve color with a white dot. The wide taffeta collar is in plain mauve and is finished at the front with a little cavat bow of the foulard. There is no attempt at decoration in this model. The three half- --- ery adorns it. The collar is finished with small embroidered scallops and the flower design, appearing on the waist elsewhere, is repeated here. The collar is wired with the finest of wire to support it at the back. A waist cut on somewhat similar lines and made of figured voile is shown in the second picture. In this model all seams are joined with a piping of cord covered with the material. There is a vest of plain white net and a collar of net and lace. Pearl buttons fasten the vest and small bows of satin, matching the flower in the voile, add a pretty color note and a smart finish. Both these models are finished at the waist line with a narrow belt which sets under the skirt. There is very little work on the blouse of voile but the daintiness of the fabric, showing lavender flowers on a white ground and the fineness of the plain net in vest and collar, produce an effect of elegance almost equal to that in the elaborate blouse of organdy. or the Small Lady inch hand-run tucks above the hem are put there for the purpose of lengthening the skirt when necessary. The skirt is longer than it appears in the picture, measuring about a third longer than the waist, when length of waist is measured from the shoulder, and the $ ^{1} $ skirt from waist line to hem. The skirt is laid in small box-plats at the top and bottom and set on to the waist with a narrow, plaited frill, standing up. The wide, black velvet belt is a new item in style for little girls. It drops below the waist line at the left side and is finished with a flat bow without ends. A little dress in average good quality in foulard will stand considerable wear, and in staple colors will bear careful washing. Considering the pleasure which little girls manage to get out of silk for wear upon their simple "state occasions," the average mother is inclined to indulge them in this bit of finery. But little misses, adding six or more inches to their height in a year, require planning by the mother, lest they grow out of their most treasured clothes long before they have worn them out.
