PATRONIZE MERCHANTS WHO ADV. IN THE PEOPLE'S PAPER THE COLORADO STATESMAN THE JOURNAL OF THE WEST. LABOR SHALL BE FREE RACE COUNTRY PARTY Hon. W. J. BRYAN'S RESIGNATION FROM CABINET VOL. XX1. Hon. W. AN'S RE TION William Jennings Bryan, Secretary of the United States and chief adviser to the President resigned his portfolio retiring from the cabinet on Wednesday June 9, and the same was accepted by the Chief Executive of the Nation. Opinions vary as to the wisdom of Mr Bryan's action at this time when the country is at such a critical point, and while his friends laud him others denounce him. Knowing how strong the personal convictions of the president and his former Secretary are and their determinations on the righteousness of actions towards promoting the welfare of the nation we were inclined to think, or we did believe that after more than two years of harmonious working the president, Mr. Bryan and the other members of the Cabinet would always act in a manner that would merit the unanimous commendation of the people. But alas! something sudden, something strange, something puzzling appears on the scene—a test in the administrative element of the nation, and the man with whom was entrusted the power to help to adjust matters in calm or impending storm; the man whom the nation respected for his ability as a statesman, his special knowledge of diplomatic and international affairs, has seen fit and feet at this time that he would serve his country's best interest in a larger, better and more useful sphere in retiring from the public position he held, taking up his position as a private citizen again. "Peace at all or any costs" is the slogan, the watchword, in fact the platform of Mr. Bryan; whether the honor, the dignity, the prestige of the nation suffers; whether she loses what she has established in the form of commanding the respect and particular attention of other nations; whether her citizens be subjected to the most outrageous abuses, insults, and even death; whether her commercial relationship be so impaired that it may take her more years to regain than she spent in obtaining, this messenger of "Peace" is satisfied that his withdrawal from the ministry of the Nation at this all-important time in her history will have such a salutary effect upon the people of the United States of America as to trample in the dust everything that counts for American honor, integrity and liberty. While some leaders of the Democratic party assert with emphasis that this action of Mr. Bryan at the time when his country needs the best brain, the best talent, the widest experience to combat the dark scenes that are confronting her, the woeful environments in which she is unfortunately placed by the indiscriminately cruel acts of some of the nations at war towards her, that this will not materially interfere with its political future; we venture to ask the people to review Mr. Bryan's speech at the Auditorium in his whirlwind campaign for the preservation of the Democratic party. Can we remember how with all his oratorical sway, with all the zeal and earnestness of his manhood he appealed to the people of Denver and Colorado last fall to preserve the Wilson Administration by returning Senator C. S. Thomas and other Democrats. If we can remember correctly his quotation of the "tariff," when he impressed, while the result might not be satisfactory to Mr. Thomas' constituency yet we ought to sacrifice our little state-wish for the good of the country and the keeping intact of the Democratic supremacy. "It is a poor rule that does not work both ways" says the adage, and we can see the real principle underlying Mr. Bryan's democracy, in his "good of the nation," "Democratic preservation" "peace perfect peace" policy when he would not surrender his personal opinion to that of the president's and his cabinet, fully realizing the inspiration it would give Germany to refuse or reject our demands in a cessation of acts that constitute a breach of international laws and rules governing warfare. Better had Mr. Bryan accepted the suggestion of Ex Senator Patterson of Colorado when he suggested the non-acceptance of the position; better had he reflected and then concluded that his personal convictions could not allow him to get away from his circumscribed mental sphere when a crucial moment came in this country's life, and then we would not DENVER COLORADO SATURDAY. JUNE 19, 1915 State Hist. & Nat Hist. Booley State House GIANTS WHO ADO THE JOURNAL DENVER COLORADO be exposed to the chagrin of any nation who assumes that we have no National stamina, no National pride, no National backbone. We in the expression of the President feel with deep sorrow the resignation of Mr. Bryan at this stage, not that his place cannot be filled but that his action lends encouragement to those who are trying to humiliate our nation and make us an object of ridicule. Now that Mr Bryan resolves to appeal by his stereotyped lecture role to his fellow Americans for justification let us carefully consider Bryan the politician, Ex Secretary of State, and "Professional Lecturer"—weigh him well in the balances and discover if HE IS FOUND WANTING. SOUTH AMERICA NEEDS NEGRO BUSINESS MEN Bishop John Hurst returned to this country a few days ago from a six-week trip to the West Indies and South America, where he visited the various churches operating under the A. M. E. Church. During his trip he visited the work in St Thomas, St. Croix, Antique, Dominica, Martinique, St. Lucia, Grenada, Barbadoes, Trinidad and British Guiana. He expresses himself as being highly pleased with his visit. "The ship that brought me to New York," he said, "was the Rio Janeiro, which is owned by the government of Brazil. There are no discriminations on race lines in Brazil, as was evidenced by the fact that a goodly number of the officers of the ship are of American descent. I was especially impressed by a visit to Martinique, which is a French possession. I was there at the time when a detachment of volunteers for the French army was about to depart. A big pavilion was erected in the public square near the statue of the Empress Josephine and there the popuice gathered to bid farewell to the soldiers. The Governor General and other leading officials were there. There was a striking absence of race lines in the troops and many of the officers are colored—a striking contrast to the prevailing practice in this country. "The work of the African Methodist Church is prospering in British Guiana, under the guidance of the Rev. P. A. Luckie and others. We have a number of flourishing stations there. At Georgetown, where we have two churches, a farewell reception was tendered me. Mayor Dias, one of the speakers mentioned the fact that educated men of the race were represented in the professions, but that business men were sadly lacking. These professional men are mostly educated in England In Guiana, the chief industry, like that in many places in the West Indies, is growing sugar cane. Wages are very low and the same condition obtains in many places in the West Indies. 25th INFANTRY AIDS DEAD COMRAD'S WIDOW Schofield Barracks, Hawaii.—Mrs. Anna M. Clifford, of Frankford, Ky. (widow of a soldier who died shortly after his retirement from Company K, 25th Infantry, in the latter part of 1911), became the recipient of aid amounting to several hundred dollars from the soldiers of the 25th Infantry, stationed at Schofield Barracks, Hawaiian Islands, through the efforts of Mrs. Hattie L. Booker, the widow of Andrew Booker, later first sergeant, company K, 25th Infantry. Mrs. Booker had but recently returned to Hawaii from an extended visit on the mainland, where she learned that Mrs. Clifford's property was about to be sold for taxes. She went to work immediately and solicited the aid of the soldiers of the 25th Infantry, without being requested by Mrs. Clifford or anyone else. It is not known whether the money reached Mrs. Clifford in time to save her property, as the letter conveying the news of her distress was long in receipt before Mrs. Booker was informed of its contents. But as it was, she secured nearly $400 for the relief of a poor widow five thousand miles away. Through the discretion and direction of First Sergeant Oscar Fox, Companp M, did not wait for the pay day collection, which was necessary in most of the other cases, but had a check for $94,50 sent to Mrs. Clifford at once. The men of his company refunded the money on pay day, two weeks afterwards. Mrs. Clifford had not appealed to the regiment nor anyone else in Hawaii for help, nor did she appraise Mrs. Booker of conditions relative to her property, but she had appealed to a retired army officer at Fort Thomas, Ky, as she has not been pensioned. JOHN HOPKINS, COLORED RE ELECTED TO CITY COUNCIL Wilmington, Del., June 9.—City Councilman John O. Hopkins was re-elected to the city council from the sixth ward in the municipal election Saturday. His Democratic opponent, William D. Morrow, made a particularly energetic campaign against Dr. Hopkins, but the latter had 300 votes to spare. The successful candidate received a goodly number of white votes. The Republicans also elected their candidate for mayor, eight out of twelve members of the city council and other city officials. Dr. Hopkins was first elected two years ago. During his term he has succeeded in getting the race considered in many matters affecting its interests. Less than RACE NEWS GATHERED FROM VARIOUS SOURCES New Orleans, La., June 8. Mother Katherine Drexel of Philadelphia, Pa., founder and Superior of the Sisters of the Blessed Sacrament for the evangelization of the Indians and Negroes, has purchased an extensive property in New Orleans for the establishment of a new convent and industrial school for the training of Negro children. The property was formerly occupied by the Southern University. The purchase price was $28,000. tive sessions of the grand lodge meant much to the order. All old officers were re-elected except one. The treasury showed $30,000 in cash deposited in various banks of Florida. The membership showed $6,000. Possibly the most important act of the week was appointing a committee to bear greetings to Governor Pank Trammell, the House of Representatives and the Senate. The grand chancellor selected a committee that was thoroughly representative of Florida' Three Negroes have added to the lynch list this week in Georgia, South Carolina and Arkausas for the usual alleged accusation attempting to assault and assaulting white women. In Arkansas the charge was killing a white farmer. The barbarism of certain white factions of this country continue to exist, and it is demonstrated when in order to wreak vengeance on a Negro in Columbia, S. C., the sheriff was mortally wounded and six other persons were reported killed. Keep up mob rule and you must face just retribution Remember Pompeii. Baltimore, Md., June 9.—The Goldfield hotel, that famous place built by the late Joe Gans out of his winnings in his successful bout with Battling Nelson at Goldfield, Nev., will be opened for the public again this Thursday night. It is under the management of Eddie Myers, who was Gan's partner when he first opened the hostelry. Lawson N. Duffin, treasurer of Monumental lodge of Elks is the lessee of the hostelry. The structure cost about $40,000 and is owned by the window of the dead lightweight champion, Mrs. Ford Dabney. She closed the place several months and went to live in New York City, where her present husband is engaged in musical work. Tallahasse, Fla., June 8.- The Grand Lodge, K. of P., with its bands, torchlight processions, dress parades, drills and flood of oratory brought crowds from all parts of the state. The Uniform Rank showed up magnificently with its majors, colonels, brass buttons, gleaning swords, well equipped cavalry and camps. The legislala week ago he succeeded in having the city council pass an ordinance barring such race-hating plays as "The Birth of a nation," "The nigger" and "The Clansman." NO 44 tive sessions of the grand lodge meant much to the order. All old officers were re-elected except one. The treasury showed $30,000 in cash deposited in various banks of Florida. The membership showed $6,000. Possibly the most important act of the week was appointing a committee to bear greetings to Governor Pank Trammell, the House of Representatives and the Senate. The grand chancellor selected a committee that was thoroughly representative of Florida's leading colored citizens They were cordially received by the governor and submitted resolutions to the legislature which were spread on the journal. The resolutions commended the committees that objected to the proposed law to deny colored men the privilege of practicing law and the Grandfather Clause, which some belated "piney woods" statesman tried to gold brick the legislators with, but which they promptly let die a birning. The committee represented in its own name over a half million dollars' worth of property. New York, June 12.—The steamship Liberia, chartered by Chief Sam and the Akim Trading company, which sailed from Galveston early in 1914 as the announced forerunner of a widely heralded "back to Africa" movement, is reported as having been picked up by an English cruiser and taken into Dakar, on the west African coast. Word of the Liberia was brought here today by Bishop Isaiah B. Scott, Negro bishop for Africa of the Methodist Episcopal church, who was a passenger on the steamship Buenos Aires, from Spanish ports. Chief Sam and twelve of his disciples, selected from about 800 of his followers who had gathered at Galveston ready to sail for Africa as a commissioner to "spy out" the land, are now scattered among African coast cities, the bishop said. "The movement to take American Negroes back to Africa is a failure," said Bishop Scott. "In the first place, Africa is no place for them, and again, the British government does not encourage such immigration." Pedro H. Gomez, a former major in the Mexican army under Gen. Victoriano Huerta, was a passenger on the Buenos Aires. He said he was going to visit General Huerta here. Twenty school teachers who have been working for several years in the public schools in the Philippines also were on the boat.

JUDGE BARS VERDICT CONVICT- ING A PRIEST. Jurist, District Attorney and Special Prosecutor Decline to Re-Enter Case at Sterling. Western Newspaper Union News Service, Sterling, Colo—A jury was severely scored by Judge Havlett P, Burke in the District Court here when it brought in a verdict finding the Rev. Father P, U. Sasse guilty of perform- ing an illegal operation. “I have never heard a verdict basea on such flimsy evidence,” said Judge Burke, “and will use the power the law gives me to set it aside. I will be glad to entertain a motion to dismiss the case. If the case ever comes be- fore me again I shall decline to pre- side over the trial.” District Attorney Irving Van Bradt, who declined to take active part in the prosecution, said he never would like the work of prosecuting Father Sasse on the charge and that the story told by J. 8. Dobbs, prosecuting witness, on the stand was entirely dif- ferent than the one he had told in con- fidence. He regretted the confidence forbade him to tell the court the story as he said he had heard it first and recommended a motion to dismiss the case. Charles 1. Avery of Denver, special prosecutor, then said that he did not like the case and asked relief from further connection with it. Deputy District Attorney John VY.

Denver, June 16.—Harry Edgar Hil- len, the young Denver bandit, will be hanged some time next week, Execu- tive clemency was denied him by Gov- ernor Carlson and the State Board of Pardons. AFRO-AMERICAN CULLINGS Kuno Meyer said the other day that the great war was the price the world is paying for the mechanical comforts which haye been piled up so rapidly. Again another historian clinches the point. The time it is W. E. B, DuBols, the author of a brilliant book on “The Negro,” which Holt has just pub- lished in the Home University Li- brary DuBois says that the Negro in Africa has been practically enslaved by the civilised nations of Europe. The growth of trade unions made in- vestors look to Africa for opportun- ities. That meant the partition of Africa. And “this partition of Africa brought revision of,the ideas of Negro uplift. Why was it necessary, the Eu- ropean investors urged, to push @ con- tinent of black workers along the paths of social uplift by education, trades unionism, property holding and the electoral franchise when the work- ers desired no change and the rate of European profit would suffer?” Accumulated profits from the me- chanical inventions of the last few generations drove France, Belgium, England, Germany, ttaly, Spain and Portugal to carve Africa according to their own tastes. DuBois can see no hope for the race until Negroes “fight not simply for their own rights as men, but for the ideals of the greater world in which they live; the emanci- pation of women, universal peace, democratic government, the socializa tion of wealth and human brother- hood.” ‘That does not mean inevitable prog: ress. It means inescapable degrada: tion if the generous spirits of the world do not strive to the utmost. At a Crisis lke this every virtue, every ideal, every dream of glory can be forsaken in an instant. Brute force can displace reason, and the world, like the gallant boy on the Aisne, can make itself “the instrument through which a greater force works out ite inscrutable ends through the impulses of terror and repulsion.” ‘The clternative is justice, fraternity and equality. ‘The adoption by the Baptist con- vention of the report to locate the pro- poded Negro seminary at Memphis came after considerable discussion. Nashville submitted a pleasing prop- osition for the location of the sem- inary, but because of the distance to Nashville from the center of Negro population to be benefited by the sem- inary, it was decided that Memphis would be a more suitable place. It was agreed to raise at an early date $50,000 for this purpose. Dr, Milton 1, Griggs, Negro, of Tennessee. made a profound impression and showed the fine spirit of brotherliness and co- operation which exists between the white and the Negro Baptists. His address showed a fine spirit of loyal- ty to the South and the white people. He acknowledged the debt which he and his people owed to the South and to the southern people. He said that it was here that he got his language, his knowledge of industry and his re- ligion, that he was proud of his race and of the white people. He declared that the white people of the South have helped the Negroes far beyond their calculations, giving them new unity and inspiring them to self-uplift and self-help. He declared that the work of the southern white people is affecting the Negro, not externally but in a real emancipation of the race. One-third of the voting strength of the United States the South con. Booker Washington, accompanied by 2 company of 25 other educated colored men, has recently made a visit to larger centers of population in Louisiana. The coming of the vis- itors was widely advertised in ad- vance, and Negroes gathered in large numbers to attend the meetings held. Some journeyed ten, twenty and even forty miles—on mule back, in buggy, in wagon. At Shreveport, on the west- ern border of the state, ten thousand gathered principally to hear Mr. Washington, He was the chief speak- er and principal attraction at all pointe, White citizens of prominence lent encouragement to the meetings by their presence. Booker Washing- ton gave wise and wholesome counsel to both races, In talking to the whites he reminded them that it is better to educate Negroes than to take care of criminals; that Louisiana paid too high a compliment to Negro children by assuming that a Negro child could get a satisfactory education by giv- ing him only three or four months’ ‘schooling in the year; that the nation hears too much about lynchings and racial difficulties and too little about Last summer saw completed the de- mareation of the boundary line be- tween Alaska and Canada, straight north along the one hundred and forty- first meridian to the Arctic ocean.

In this great Baptist movement the South leads, realizing that in proportion as the Negroes are educated they will help in advancement and plans for im- proving the condition of all the peo- ple. He declared that as the Negroes followed the white people through years of slavery, so they are now will- ing to follow in this great work and labor in concert for the future of the race. This theological seminary for the Negroes will doubtless prove a great forward step in all their work. It was a humiliating position in which the son of Abraham Lincoln found himself when he admitted to the industrial commission that the great Pullman company was the real recipient of the tips to its colored por- ters, This concern, whose stock is so closely held and so highly valued as to be almost never sold, has paid on an average 8 per cent ever since its foundation. At the same time, it gives to its colored employees less than a living wage, and expects them to make up the difference between that and what they need to live on out of the gratuities of travelers. Mr. Lincoln thought that on the whole the com: pany was entitled to great credit for keeping this field of employment open to Negroes, who are so often discrim- inated against. But it may well be doubted whether the philanthropic motive would be noticed in the Pull- man company if it were compelled to pay the wages it should. The la- borer is worthy of his hire; and when Mr, Lincoln so complacently patted himself on the back for employing colored labor at all, he ought to re: member that failure to obtain sufficient tips by reason of interference with traffic, slackness of travel, or hard times has brought many a porter’s family face to face with genuine sut- fering—2ven when he wore four and five service stripes on his coat-sleeve. ‘That under these circumstances por ters have ylelded so little to tempta- tion that their record for fidelity and honesty and for herole service in ac- cidents is admirable, is plainly no fault of Lincoln's son. The descendants of the men the father freed have long been exploited, overworked—often without sleep enough for long stretches to keep a men well—and underpaid besides by the company of which the emancipator’s son has been the head. —New York Hvening Post. The campaign that was begun among the colored schools by Mrs. Helena Holley, under the direction of Superintendent Horn, for the bet terment of health conditions among the colored children, was greeted with enthusiasm by the pupils. ‘The pupils of six colored schools met at the Colored High schoo! where they were gathered in a large hall The Health hymn was distributed among them, and with the first few chords struck on a piano, the song was taken up and carried through splendidly, the true musical instinct of the race rapidly caught the rhythm. and thus the message of the words was crystallized into their thought through the pleasing medium of the tune, which was Tipperary. The ladies making up the party were very much pleased with the re sults of their efforts, The party was out all day, visiting the several col ored ward schools, and teaching the willing little dusky students the catchy song.—Houston Post. the evidences of racial friendship and good will which exist in the majority of communities. And Negroes imi tate white men closely; if white peo: ple break the law, drink and gamble, Negroes will; if white people are sober, law-abiding and industrious, Negroes will be. Counseling the Ne- groes Mr. Washington advised them to stay in the country where the soil and the rain and the sun draw no color line. He urged his hearers not to live in a knapsack, but to settle down and to get property. He told them that fifty years the white man had been carrying the Negro on his back and that he was getting tired, He bade them consider how they could use at home what they had learned at school. And he advised them not to talk about white people, but to talk to them, to make friends with them. ‘The government of India has ap pointed an expert to make an exhaus tive study of the white ants of that country, which completely destroy all books with which they come in con tact if not detected in time.

Winter Wheat Estimated 6,890,000 Bushels and Spring Crop at 5, | 660,000, With Gain in Prices. Western Newspaper Union News Service, Denver.—Farmers of Colorado will reap a winter wheat crop 640,000 bushels in excess of last year, and will sell it at 41 cents a bushel over 1914 prices, making a net gain for 1915 of $262,400. The total to be de rived from the winter wheat crop ot the state is $8,090,200, as approxt- mated by the statistics of the United States weather bureau. A yield of spring wheat in Colorado of 5,860,000 bushels, compared with 5,062,000 bushels last year, is pre- dicted in the report. The government crop of spring wheat is expected to show a gain in 1915 over 1914 of ap proximately 68,000,000 bushels. The combined winter and spring wheat crops of the United States will reach nearly 950,000,000 bushels this year, and of this Colorado will con tribute 12,550,000 bushels, and sell it at $14,809,000. ‘The following figures are issued by the bureau of crop estimates, in co operation with the weather bureau and the Department of Agriculture: Fok ee Soere Cae ne ene nore: oer Winter Wheat— bu. bu.

BRYAN SEES U.S. ISSUES His FIRST STATEMENT ON CGAUSELESS WAR AND TELLS NEEDS OF NEUTRALS. SEES OPPORTUNITIES AHEAD; PREDICTS TREATIES PRO- TECTING ALL NATIONS. ieetesn Newspaper Union: seas Servnie. Washington. — Former Secretary Bryan, in the first section of his statement on “The Causeless War,’ prophesied that the greatest peace- making opportunity in all history was certain to come to the United States, and declared there would be a de mand for an international conference with the return of peace, to change the rules of international law, which “seem to have been made for the na tions at war rather than for the na- tions at peace.” “Under the stress and strain of the titanfe struggle in which they are en- gaged,” Bryan's statement says, “each side has felt itself justified in en- croaching on the rights of the neu- trals. The ocean highways, the com- mon property of all, have been to some extent appropriated for war pur- poses and delicate diplomatic ques: tions are forced upon the neutral na- tions. “Just at this time, when these ques- tions are most acute, the belligerent governments are least able to deal with them with the calmness ang poise which their great importance de mands. “No wonder every neutral nation is increasingly anxious for the war to end, but of all the neutral nations ours has the most reason to pray for the return of peace—most reason to set its face resolutely against participa tion in this war. “This nation, the head of the neu tral group, and the sincere friend of all the belligerents, is the duty boun to set an example in patience and self restraint. “In all history no such opportunits has ever come to any other nation a: that which is destined to come to the United States. In all history no oth er peacemaker has ever been in posi tion to claim as rich a) blessing as tha which will be pronounced upon ow President when the time for mediatior comes—as come it must.” Tnteoduemng his statement, Brya graphically describes the horrors an afflictions of the war, and says: “Neutral nations cannot look o1 with indifference—the ties that bin them together are too strong; the re lationship too intimate, This is espe cially true of the United States. We have a composite population—ever} nation in Europe baving contribute liberally to our citizenship. These our countrymen, themselves — bort abroad, or immediately descendec from foreign-born ancestors, canno} but take a lively interest in the con duct as well as in the results of th war; and a still larger circle share! the concern of those directly cor nected. Not a soldier falls on eithe: side but the sorrow expressed in hi home finds an echo at some fireside in the United States.” At some length, Bryan refers to in terruptions to neutral commerce, de rangement of business and gonsequen readjustments, and speaks of scarcits ‘of American ships as one of the great est embarrassments to the Uniter States. YAQUI INDIANS DECLARE WAR. Announce Hostilities Against Ger- many, Mexico and America.

We agree with the Editor of the Age that it would be very unlikely to find a family among our people that would be so ignorant as to obstruct census-takers in their work and going to the extent of committing assault and battery on them. Mob-rule and similar actions owe their origin to a large extent to this ignorance which is to be found in more than an ordinary degree in the southern portion of our country, and incidents allike New York's are not only deplorable but a serious reflection upon the progress and vaunted civilization of the greatest Republic on earth. If the educational authorities of the United States would bend their efforts to the training of the masses we have no doubt that much of the bitter feeling engendered and encouraged by many of the people regarding Race prejudice would be removed and Ignorance would be obliterated.

To our mind we cannot see into the justness of any political party bringing pressure to bear on the Commissioners to influence their selection of men for positions on certain boards or commission as to effect a radical change in what they have done after sane, deliberative and judicious action is engaged in their appointment of such men; and in quoting the case of the new Civil Service Commission consisting of Charles L. Kirk, W. A. Carpenter and Thomas W. Duncan, where, because of dissatisfaction over Mr. Kirk expressed by the people of a certain political creed the commissioners must be made to appear weaklings, tools and subordinates, the question arises how can success attend their efforts and how can there be any phase of prosperity for our city if those who are guiding our affairs are to be so hampered. In the appointment of employees for positions that come under their individual departments, the Commissioners may be at liberty to choose whoever they like while competence is assured, and in this particular requests may be made by any of the people for obtaining such positions, but when it comes to a larger sphere wherein they must act as a whole, their majority or unanimous action should be respected. We, therefore, are compelled by our obedience to law and order (let everything be done decently and in order), our fulfilment of pledges, our willingness to submit to the rulings of those we put in authority to manage our city affairs, until we prove failure, to stand by the Commissioners, giving them our hearty support and strongly advising the public through our columns to give their ready help to preserve the form of government that we have chosen by the will of the people, suppressing every action that tends to place barriers in the path of good government and presenting a clean, square, upright and sober administration that Denver can well be proud of now and in the years to come. "To be or not to be that is the question." The Colorado Statesman emphatically replies—"To Be." kindly tact. Poor souls, this habit of "putting their foot in it" has become chronic, and after a time they don't know whether they are hurting other people's feelings or not. The woman who possesses the kindest heart in the world and who would be miserable were she to realize the extent of her blunders is often and quite unwittingly most tactless. "Oh, my dear," she will exclaim effusively and with a very well-meant sincerity when greeting some woman acquaintance, "I am so very, very pleased to see you! But do you know, I would have hardly recognized you? For you have grown so dreadfully thin and haggard! What have you been doing to yourself? You have lost all your pretty color and look years older." These remarks can scarcely come under the category of tactfulness, and are very far from being conducive to a pleasant atmosphere. No woman likes to be assured of the passing of the years, nor does she like to have it borne upon her that her beauty is a fleeting affair. Yet the tactless woman does all this without in the least realizing the enormity of the crime. Then when her friend shows symptoms of chilliness in manner the tactless woman will become aggrieved and will manifest symptoms of disapproval. "I can't think how it is that so many of my old friends don't come to see me any more," she will announce in injured, tones, probably to her long-suffering husband, who knows the reason only too well, but dares not tell her so. "I don't have nearly so many friends as I used to have!" The reason of this lies in the growth of the tactless habit. Tactlessness is never static; it must either increase or decrease. Unfortunately, it generally exhibits the former tendency. Hence, after a certain point, the habit has progressed so far that it has become positively unpleasant. Few people will stand that sort of thing for long. Rudeness and bluntness of manner never did win friends. Without wishing to deprecate the value of candor and sincerity, at the same time these may be combined with tact. The woman without tact never will be popular—that is one thing sure and certain. I know an attractive girl, whose whole charm lies in the fact that she always manages to say the right thing in the right place and at the right time. She places the feeling of others before her own. Just because she is sensitive herself, she has learned that others may be equally sensitive, and that kindness is the finest thing to cultivate. Kindness implies tact, and tact means the affection of one's friends and the liking of everyone with whom one comes in contact. number has increased very rapidly. Recently the German government gave out a report that will be interesting to the women of the United States. The report states that during the last year the number of feminine students has grown from 2,795 to 3,213, and the percentage of women now in the universities, as compared with the whole student body, is 5.4 per cent, as against 2.7 per cent three years ago. Of the present body of woman students the great majority (2,900) come from Germany. Of the foreign women, Russia furnishes over a third, America about a fourth and other European countries most of the others. Few woman students come from Asia, Africa or Australia. The University of Berlin alone has over one-fourth of the total woman students of the empire, the exact number of women in the large universities at present being: Berlin, 904; Bonn, 289; Munchen, 262; Gottingen, 237; Heidelberg, 219; Freiburg, 189; Munster, 172; Breslau, 150; Leipzig, 129; Marburg, 126; Konigsberg, 107; Greifswald, 83; Halle a.

The departments of study to which the woman students give most preference are about the same as in former years, the enrollment by courses being: Philology and history, 1,758; medicine, 702; mathematics and natural sciences, 579; economics and agriculture, 91; ethics, 47; dentistry, 17; theology, 11; pharmacy, 8. were so, why would the agents of the French and English governments have to go over the country with a fine-tooth comb to discover them? Surely the owners of horses that are fit for army purposes are willing to dispose of them if they get their price, and there has been no complaint that the foreign agents are not ready to pay what is asked. The fact is that while the census of the agricultural department gives the number of horses in this country at many millions, there are very few thousands that would be passed by any horseman for service in the army. Draft animals are useful only for the artillery, and for cavalry service the horses must be sufficiently well built to carry at least 150 pounds and speedy enough to keep up. There is not one horse in ten that will meet the requirements. On the race tracks of the country are hundreds of thoroughbreds that could be bought for small sums, but they are not good enough for remounts because they are not up to carrying weight. The thoroughbred of the right type makes the best kind of a cavalry animal, but some are not fit for the work. It is necessary, therefore, that teachers should be led rather than driven, that their strong points should be dwelt upon rather than their faults, that their sympathies should be kept active rather than their critical faculties, that their opportunities should be magnified rather than their duties, to the end that they may be buoyant and their teaching energizing to the better natures of the children. There is a vast difference between such teaching and the listless routine when teachers have lost heart. Many Women Who Say Wrong Thing By Ellen Adeir, Philadelphia, Pa. kindly tact.

In their respective capacity of chauffeur and soda dispenser for a number of years, they have always given satisfaction and having gained a host of friends will be very much missed. The Colorado Statesman wishes them abundant success in their new home, hoping they will make as many friends. The congratulations of the Colorado Statesman are heartily extended to Hon. E. R. Harper over his appointment as Insurance Commissioner by Governor Carlson. Knowing this honored gentleman for quite a long time and following his political career for a number of years we cannot but feel proud over the selection of such a man for this responsible position as his integrity and true manliness are well known to Coloradoans and those count for something. A successful term of office is our wish. John Contee, president of the Douglass Undertaking Co., returned to the city last week after a delightful visit to his mother, sisters and other relatives in Washington. Mr. Contee expresses himself as being greatly benefitted by the trip, having met many of the acquaintances of his youth, and the particular privilege of returning to his native city after so many years absence left an ever memorable impression on him from the cordial manner he was received and the numerous entertainments given him by his relatives and friends. The Recital given by the pupils of Miss d'Autremont on Monday evening last, was quite a success. A fairly large and appreciative audience greeted the pupils and the rendition and execution of the several numbers of the programme proved beyond a doubt the very favorable impression made on the listeners. Miss d'Autremont has been engaged in giving instruction on the piano for years, and the touch and technique exhibited by her scholars reflect the highest credit on her as a teacher. Through the kindness of the Rev. D. E. Over, the Zion Baptist Church was donated for the occasion. The great crowd of Denver's best people which gathered at Overland park last Saturaday for the opening day of the racing meeting told what a demand there is for a season of this amusement here. Leading men and women in all walks of life gathered at the races and applauded the winning horses with great enthusiasm. Governor Carlson and his family occupied a box along with many other notable people. The racing was the best ever seen here and when Loftus won the Opening handicap, worth $1,200 to the horse's owner, the crowd cheered itself hoarse. There was no disorder of any kind and as intoxicating liquor is barred at Overland park there was no drinking. In fact, everything was properly conducted, and it is safe to say that it will be that way throughout the meeting which closes July 5th. The D. and R. G. railway and the Tramway company give special daily train service. The races start daily at two o'clock, and seven events will be run every day. Ladies will be admitted free each Tuesday and Friday. THE BIG SHOW.

The price is within reach of everybody and therefore there can be no excuse for failure to attend. The Denver Post, through the usual generosity of Messrs. Bonfils and Tammen, invites all Orphan Asylums, Orphan Institutes and Orphanages to be their guests at the matinee on Tuesday, Denver citizens in mass meeting at the City Park, Thursday evening last, went on record as pledging their loyalty to this country, nation and President Wilson and offering united support to the Government in the maintenance of righteousness and peace in our relations with other nations. Upwards of 20,000 persons assembled in front and around the bandstand and listened attentively to a number of speakers who brought forcibly to the minds of the people the plea "The American Union Forever." There was a representation of all races and creeds and when the Innes band played "America" and the "Star Spangled Banner," there burst forth an unanimous expression of peace and the preservation of the dignity of the nation and its chief executives from the hearts of this vast throng. Rev. Franklin Rall presided and carried out the program successfully. He introduced Governor Carlson, the first speaker, who made a stirring appeal for "a united family, a united city, state and nation." "If a man is not loyal here to his state," said the Governor, "he is not loyal to the Stars and Stripes." The Colorado Statesman, the representative Negro Journal of the State, indorses, echoes and re-echoes the sentiments expressed at this never to be forgotten meeting and will open its columns at all times for the publication of anything to further the cause. ```markdown ``` 22nd inst. at 2 o'clock sharp.

Mr. Bonaparte was well respected in the community, being a young man of refined mannerliness and in his capacity as chauffeur was accredited one of the most careful drivers in the city. He was a member of the Denver Lodge, No. 8646 G. U. O. of O. F., being a past officer and a zealous brother of the fraternity.

DIGGILLAND WO arctic relief expeditions will leave the United States this summer, bent on bringing back explorers marooned in the frozen polar regions. One is quite confident of success and not a desperate business as such work goes. WO arctic relief expeditions will leave the United States this summer, bent on bringing back explorers marooned in the frozen polar regions. One is quite confident of success and not a desperate business, as such work goes. It will seek to reach the party of Donald B. MacMillan, now believed to be at Etah, North Greenland, and reported safe in August of last year. The second, a forlorn hope, will attempt by aeroplane search of the terri­ber northern seas to locate stouthearted Vilhjalmar Stefansson, who a year ago with two companions marched straight north into the unknown from the Canadian coast near the mouth of the Mackenzie river MacMillan and Stefansson engaged in what has aptly been described as a race for an unknown continent. There is a great stretch of territory lying north of Alaska and Canada and bounded on the north by the North pole, which has never been surveyed by human eyes. Admiral Peary, standing at elevations of 2,000 feet and later 1,600 feet on islands west of northern Greenland, believed he saw mountain peaks of this unknown land far to the westward. He dubbed it Crocker Land. If it exists, it is by far the largest area of solid earth now unexplored. The lure of it to the Arctic pioneer is beyond understanding to the dweller under southern skies. Last summer MacMillan pushed across the strait from Greenland and then over several large islands to the westward until he came to Cape Thomas Hubbard, the last place from which the discoverer of the North pole, Peary, believed he caught a glimpse of Crocker's Land mountains. Here a stretch of frozen ocean presented itself. For 125 miles MacMillan dashed over the ice straight west. Several times he thought he saw the land he sought. At last he had to give up and concluded what Peary had seen was only a mirage. It is improbable Peary could have seen land farther than MacMillan went. MacMillan nearly lost his life before he got back to the comparative comfort of Etah. This summer he may attempt new feats, but he will undoubtedly keep in touch with Etah, or at any rate let his whereabouts be known. He will not be the staring mystery Stefansson has become. A relief party will leave Labrador in July aboard the schooner George H. Cluet. The vessel is sent out by the backers of the MacMillan expedition, including the American Museum of Natural History, the American Geographical society and the University of Illinois. All the arrangements are being made at New York. Capt. George Comer of East Haddam, Conn., will serve as ice pilot. If Stefansson is ever rescued it will be through the devotion of his secretary, Burt M. McConnell, who bade farewell to his chief April 7, 1914. No Some Expressions Have Been Restained, But a Lot of It Has Undergone Change. With the new navy has grown up a new line of slang, perhaps not so salt watery as was the old, but edged with as much point. "Shiver my timbers" was a phrase That gave a yarn peculiar merit, Or added force to our ideas. But now it's changed to "Swash my turret." No longer do the men in navy blue refer to the chaplain as the "Sky Pilot." To them he is known as "The Fire Escape." There are no more main braces to "splice," and, moreover, nothing nowadays to splice it with—that is, nothing on shipboard. So the phrase has fallen into disuse. And as there are no more sails to "Jam" their way into the wind, the term "windjammer" has been transferred to the bugler. The medical corps is reverently referred to as "Pills." The engineer's force is known as the "Black Gang" and sometimes as the "underground Kansas Woman Who Defrauded a Weighing Machine Makes Restitution to Company. Because she "cneated" the weighing machine in the depot out of a penny more than a year ago, the conscience of an Abillene, Kan., woman has been bothering her ever since, according to a letter received by the company's agent here. TO SEEK TWO ARCTIC EXPLORERS VILHUALMAR STEPANSSON one has seen Stefansson or the two men he kept with him since then. His vessel, the Karluk, drifted several hundred miles to the westward and was crushed in the ice. Part of those aboard the Karluk were rescued through the perseverance of McConnell. Then McConnell came back to the States and started his efforts to organize a relief expedition. It was he who evolved from his brain the idea of hydro-aeroplane. Many of his plans were talked over in the Eight Oars, E. W. Deming's studio in artistic Macdougal alley. The Canadian government is chided by McConnell for failing to fit out a relief expedition, as Stefansson is upon Canadian service. But the great war has intervened and monopolizes Canada's energies. more than a million square m² Truly this is the 'last frontier,' the unexplored area on the face of globe. The prime object of the Indian Arctic expedition was to ex- tion area as much as possible when the Karluk was lost Stefar was compelled to rearrange his accordingly.

"As a survivor of the expedition, I shall not be content to sit idly and in comfort in civilization until I know that my comrades are safe, or what has happened to them." Opinions differ as to what has happened to Stefansson. He may be drifting on a field of ice somewhere north of Alaska. In this event he would reach Siberia, if still alive, about two years from now. McConnell thus outlined his plans recently: "Our expedition is not more hopeless than that of the Rodgers, which started out to rescue the crew of the Jeanette in 1879, two years after she had sailed. "As to the practicability of using hydro-aeroplanes, it is well known that Amundsen intended taking flying machines with him. into the Arctic and using them for scouting while his ice-ship, the Fram, drifted about in the ice pack. In using hydro-aeroplanes, too, we may discover the hypothetical continent of Crocker Land which Stefanson sought. "North of Siberia, Alaska and western Canada lies an unexplored area of savages." The cold storage plant is designated as the "morgue," and the meal pennant, which is hoisted on all ships at meal hours, is jokingly referred to as "the deserter's recall." Beans are known as "Boston cherries," and the Sacred God which makes its way into man-of-war storerooms with vest unbuttoned, is hailed as the "Massachusetts Nightingale." The bluejacket who asks his messmate to pass him the "sea dust," expects the salt cellar. The wireless operator answers to the name of "Sparks," ship fitters to the call of "Rivets," the electricians to the name of "dynamo buusters." The navy regulations retains the old name of blue book, but because of the many recent changes the chapter which is read to the crew at muster and known as "Articles for the government of the Navy," is now known as "The Rocks and Shoals." The anchor is still known as the "mud hook," the water cooler as the "scuttle butt," and hammocks as "dream bags."—New York World. In her letter the woman stated that more than a year ago she and her daughter were in the depot waiting for a train. The daughter placed a penny in the weighing machine, and after it had registered her weight and before she stepped from the machine, the mother stepped on also and was weighed free. This worried her so much that she inclosed a stamp in the letter and asked Mr. Mills to place a penny in the weighing machine, thus easing her conscience—New York Sun. WILLIAM CAYDEN VILHEALTHAIR STEPHANSON TONS LEAVING THE SHIP NEVER more than a million square miles. Truly this is the 'last frontier,' the last unexplored area on the face of the globe. The prime object of the Canadian Arctic expedition was to explore that area as much as possible, but when the Karluk was lost Stefansson was compelled to rearrange his plans accordingly. He immediately decided to go over the treacherous, moving, crushing ice fields north of Alaska in search of the continent which some students of tidal phenomena have argued exists—and which others have argued as conclusively does not exist. "Admiral Peary and the president of the Aero club both declare the plan feasible. My plans are simple. We would leave the ship, which would be near the shore, every favorable morning, flying about 800 feet high, and go in a straight line to a point 175 miles from shore, scanning the ice fields with powerful glasses. Then we would turn at right angles for 20 miles, turn again and fly to shore parallel to the outgoing course. "The ship, in the meanwhile, would have sailed to a point 20 miles east along the coast, where she would welcome us back." "I would bring together the crew and outfit at Victoria, B. C., as Stefanson did. We should sail from home not later than June 1, 1915. The hydroaerplanes would have to be thoroughly tried out before starting and then could be set up either at Nome or Port Clarence and tried again. The date of sailing from Port Clarence, which has the best harbor on the northwest coast of Alaska, will depend on the state of the arctic ice pack, which generally comes down to Bering strait late in July or early in August. "The hydo-aeroplanes would be of the most reliable type, with a carrying capacity of two men and 100 pounds. Their tanks should hold enough fuel for a 400-mile trip, and their pontoons should be re-enforced and equipped with sled runners, so that we may land at will on ice or water. Both machines should be of identical build, so that parts may be interchanged in the event of an accident to one of the planes." Mr. McConnell believes Stefansson has found the mysterious land he went out to look for and is now unable to return to his base on the north coast of Alaska. McConnell was one of the three members of this expedition who gained the mainland of Alaska after drifting about on the ice for nearly a month. He thinks Stefansson is able to provide for the party of three with the two rifles and 400 pounds of ammunition they had when last seen. When Stefansson bade farewell to McConnell and the meteorologist of the expedition he kept with him two companions, Storkersen and Ole Anderson. It was quite fitting that these three adventurous spirits should be descendants of the race of Leif Ericsson, the man who probably discovered America. All three were picked veterans of many arctic campaigns. They knew all the wiles of the Eskimos, besides the scientific learning of the white men. Only some terrible misfortune could have extinguished them. Bacon—Don't you think late hours are bad for children or grown-ups?

It is wise to be sure of the mushroom before you eat it, as many careless people have lost their lives by risking a doubtful one. The soft, brown cap with the pinkish lavender gills of the common field mushroom should be as well known as the identity of a robin. We often see pounds of this delicious vegetable going to waste because its value is unknown and unappreciated. If, during a rainy season, you find more than can be used at the time, prepare them for winter use. Put into a stone crock or dish a layer of clean mushrooms; sprinkle a light layer of salt, repeat until all the mushrooms are used. Let them stand for two days, stirring them occasionally, then rub them through a sieve, and to each quart of the liquid allow three blades of mace, one tablespoonful of pepper corn, one-half tablespoonful of ginger, the same of allspice and more salt, if needed. Cook for a half hour; add the spices and cook 20 minutes. Strain and bottle. Smothered Calf's Liver.—Remove the skin from the liver and make 12 incisions in the upper surface with a sharp knife, making the cuts parallel. Insert bits of bacon fat in the cuts, sprinkle with salt and celery salt and dredge with flour; put three thin slices of bacon in a hot iron frying pan; put in the liver and brown the surface, turning frequently. Remove to a casserole; add five slices of carrot, half and onion, two springs of parsley, 12 pepper corn, two cloves, and two cupfuls of boiling water. Cover closely and cook in a moderate oven an hour and a quarter, basting every 15 minutes. Remove the liver to a hot platter, reduce the liquid to one-half, strain over the meat. Surround with canned or freshly-cooked string beans, well seasoned with butter, pepper, salt and a little vinegar. A small amount of meat cooked with vegetables will make a most satisfying dish with much less cost. The flavor of the meat will so season the vegetables that less meat is desired.

It has been estimated that, beginning with a single pair, the progeny of these, if all survived, would in the twelfth generation, compose so vast an army that, marshaled in single file, ten to the inch, the line of them would stretch from the earth to a point so sunk in the profundity of space that a beam of light from the head of the procession, traveling at a rate of 184,000 miles a second, would require 2,500 years to reach the planet in which we dwell.

"I want the house put in complete order," said Mr. Arnold Rayner; "you can attend to that?" "Rather," returned John Griggs, with a smile. "I've just the party in view," and he smiled again. "Everything will be done as you order, Mr. Rayner. We're too glad to have a good neighbor back with us again to neglect making the house just as homelike as possible." "Thank you," bowed Mr. Rayner, in his grave, sedate way. "I am glad to be back among friends. You think you understand everything?" "Perfectly," assured Griggs. "The house to be cleaned up from ground to attic, the things moved in when they come, some energetic girl or woman on hand to take charge of the children in case you send them on ahead. Very good, sir. I will hire a most trusty lieutenant to assist me in carrying out all your orders to the last detail. Good-day, sir, and welcome when you come back for good." John Griggs stood looking speculatively after his acquaintance and client, Mr. Rayner. He had not seen him for eight years, and he speculated on the change in the brisk, ambitious young man who had left the village to marry a city girl, and concerning whom he had heard little until he appeared that day. It was to announce that he had decided to settle down in Blairsville again. He had taken a lease of a house for some time vacant. "Four of them—self, wife and two ل "Happy as a Lark, and Right in My Element." "Happy as a Lark, and Right in My Element." children. They can make a pleasant home of the old Trevor place." Then the speaker smiled again, recalling the direction regarding the renovation of the house and the rest of the program. He had spoken of a "lieutenant." He left his office to see that individual forthwith. "My! It will be just the kind of work Nellie Rogers likes," he soiloquized. "If ever there was a worker, it's Nellie. She'll be glad, too, for Mr Rayner will pay liberally, he said." Griggs walked down the street till he came to an old-fashioned house with an old-fashioned porch to it, and the quaintest looking old-fashioned woman seated knitting on its top step —Miss Milida Rogers, spinster. "Howdy," bobbed Griggs, at familiar ease with a person he had known for forty years. "I want to see your niece." "Oh, you do?" retorted Miss Matida, snappily. "Well, you won't find her here." "Out somewhere tendin' children, I suppose?" "No," answered the lady tartly. "Shopping, then?" "Her—Nellie? H'm! Not her. She's been a sore thorn in my flesh, John, and I'm nigh pestered to death about her." "Why, I thought Nellie was the nicest, most willing little home-body ever was?" "Too much so, and that's the matter!" declared Miss Matilda. "It's all home; it's all work, hustle, bustle! That girl says that Providence has put her in the world an orphan, poor and homeless. I'm good enough to give her a shelter, she says. But she's independent, and won't be beholden to anybody. So, to show her gratitude and willingness, from morning till night, she at it. Work—work—work! When there's nothing else to do, she'll scrub over the kitchen floor that she has already scrubbed that very morning. Why, she's wearing out the floor. Besides—the wicked waste of soap! Now, having put the house in order, she's off to help those poor Wharton people get in shape after the fire they had yesterday." "She's a jewel, that's what Nellie is!" observed Griggs heartily "Pity there weren't a few more like her in the world. Well, I've got some well paying work for her to do. You remember Arnold Rayner, who used to live here?" "Why, surely, John." "He's come back, and has rented the old Trevor place. He's to bring his wife and family with him, and wants the house in order by Tuesday. Tell Nellie to make the palace of it she knows so well to do, and the pay will be extra liberal." "She'll just delight in the task," said Miss Matilda. "Poor child! What a housewife she would make! But—no! no! Work has come to me as my portion, she says, the Lord knows best, and I'm thankful I know how to keep my hands busy. As to the beaux I'm only a poor, hard-working girl, she says. 'They are after the dainty ones that wear gloves.'" "How are you getting on, Nellie?" inquired Griggs, two days later, invading the domain over which Nellie was queen for the time being. "Happy as a lark, and right in my element!" chirped the dear little creature, amid her tubs, dust, rags and brooms. "My! but it was dirty. How does it look?" "You may well be proud," complimented Griggs. Floors, walls, ceilings and windows were spotless. The windows shone like the finest plate. The next day when Griggs dropped in, the garden and yard had been put in trim. The next, when the furniture arrived, Nellie seemed in a state of mad bliss. She worked till midnight, never tiring of getting draperies and wall ornaments in their most tasteful positions. The following morning the children arrived in an automobile. The chauffeur explained that Mr. Rayner had been delayed, and would arrive that evening. Long before then, well fed, well amused, the little ones had come to love Nellie as if she was some older sister. The lights were on, the supper table set when Arnold Rayner went up the steps. He paused to peer beyond the screen door into the room where one golden-haired cherub lay asleep in Nellie's arms, the other seated on a stool at her feet, while Nellie told her a pretty fairy story. A great tide of feeling overcame the lonely-hearted man. He seemed to stand on the threshold of comfort, peace and rest, denied his sad soul for many a year. The tears came to his eyes, but through them he saw as though in a dream, the sweet, bright face of the neatly attired girl who took as her motto, "Laborare est orare." "Oh, sir, you startled us!" said Nellie with embarrassment, as he suddenly opened the door. Then she glanced past him wonderingly. "Did not Mrs. Rayner come?" "There is no Mrs. Rayner," was the subdued reply. "My wife died six years since." When Nellie left after the evening meal, Mr. Rayner sat for a long time, gravely reflective. A cheering light seemed to have departed. Griggs came in. It was to describe his admiration of the bustling Nellie, her keen enjoyment of setting the house in order. "She has certainly made things homelike," said Mr. Rayner. Then he sighed, but his face expressed pleasure as Griggs praised the sterling usefulness and intelligence of the little toiler. He came across Nellie a few days later, and lifted his hat to her as though she were the highest lady in the land. Miss Matilda got to running over to see that the children were comfortable. They cried for Nellie's company and she, too, had to come. They were clinging to Nellie, rollicking like happy elves, one afternoon as Mr. Rayner appeared. She started to cross lots homewards. He halted her. "Nellie," he said gravely but earnestly, "you fill my home with gladness every time you come here. Won't you fill my heart as well? I need you. I want you, and—I love you." And, with a fluttering*sob of great joy, Nellie nestled into his arms, feeling that heaven had been very, very kind. A Bloodless Battle. The occasion was the regimental ball. The band was there, and the palms and the refreshment buffet and everything was lovely. But in one corner, behind a beautiful green rampart of palms, the young lieutenant and the colonel's daughter were trying to occupy the same chair, and were giving other evidence of the fact that their hearts had been pierced by some of Cupid's darts. Suddenly an intruder appeared—a fierce intruder in the uniformed personage of the young lady's father. Instantly the chair was abandoned, and the youthful swain stood at attention. "Sir," he said, in sharp, staccato tones, "I have the honor to report an engagement, in which I have been entirely victorious. Now, sir, it merely remains for you to give your official sanction to the terms of surrender." Singular Gender. "Some years ago," relates the wife of a well-known attorney, "I accompanied my husband on a business trip to Cleveland. As we ate our luncheon I chanced to overhear several traveling men jesting with the colored waiter. "George, (travelling men always say 'George to a colored waiter)'—this bill of fare has an item, chicken giblets with biscuit.' We would like to have some of that, but we want to know whether there is more than one biscuit." "George examined the menu card, scratched his poll, and finally answered: 'No, suh—yo' don' git only one. De wod' "biscuit" is singular gender, as de good book teaches. So yo' all don't get but one.' NATIONAL CAPITAL AFFAIRS Agricultural "Movies" Planned for the Farmers WASHINGTON.—The readiness of the government to make use of the most modern methods in spreading the useful information which its large corps of workers is constantly accumulating, and in missionary effort motion picture experts, many of whom have had extensive experience in commercial fields, it has already turned out in a little more than a year approximately 50,000 feet of excellent negative and has printed from this about half as many feet of positive film suitable for public projection. Before this phase of Uncle's Sam's "movie" activities is reached new legislation will be required. If legislation can be secured authorizing the expenditure of receipts from film sales and leases to pay the expenses of production, it is believed that the motion picture enterprise can be put on practically a self-supporting basis, at the same time that pictures of the greatest educational value are given wide distribution. While officials in charge of the motion picture activities of the agricultural department have this wide use of their developing plant in the backs of their minds, they are going about the business of filming interesting and instructive activities of the department and adding to their stock of positive films. Subjects already on their shelves represent such varied activities as testing cows in Vermont, raising pigs in the South, grafting trees, canning vegetables, building roads and fighting forest fires. National Museum Gets Jawbone of Prehistoric Cat JAMES W. GIDLEY, assistant curator of paleontology in the National museum, is back from an excavating expedition in the ancient deposits in the railroad cut near Cumberland, Md., bringing with him as an interesting on a level with the roadbed. Workmen in ballasting the ties used many valuable prehistoric bones, never dreaming that they were shoveling fossils which existed here before the advent of man. Mr. Gidley, in this last trip, found this jawbone of an ancient cat, which is a rare bit of good luck. According to the scientific men, the cavern itself in which this antique cat's bones were imbedded was only about 1,000,000 years old, though the rock itself was fifteen times more ancient. Time has gradually filled up this cavern and the tunnel with soil, but Mr. Gidley carefully excavated the dirt and obtained this specimen, from which science can reconstruct a cat which was in its palmy days as large as a jaguar is at present. When this kitty wandered about there were no back fences to hire him to nocturnal serenades nor had ancient man yet appeared on this continent to interrupt his jawlings with a prehistoric bootjack or beer bottle. His only companions were the saber-toothed tigers, the immense mastodons grazing about in the plains, the mammoths, the great sloths, tapirs, the prototype of the present horse and an extinct bison species. But this cat was not lonely, there being a large family connection. It closely resembled the mountain lion, though much similar in some respects to the tiger. Standing about two feet high, ferocious and with powerful sharp teeth, it was every bit as formidable a foe as any tiger today pacing his cage in the zoo. Washington Discovers a Large New Department WASHINGTON has just waked up to discover that it has a large new department of the government which it has little suspected of being in existence, but which has in its own judgment attained proportions justifying ing back into an old haunt, but there was curiosity to see what branch of the government was substantial enough to claim such large space. Gold lettering over the doorway gave token that the "Office of Public Roads and Rural Engineering, United States Department of Agriculture," was the new tenant, and Washington rubbed its eyes and said: "Didn't know there was such a big thing as that in the capital." The roads bureau in its expanding splendor expresses a growing idea about which the people of the United States seem destined to hear much in the future. The government has in fact launched out on a great good roads program, which seemingly will make rivers and harbors improvements, which have already cost hundreds of millions of dollars, look tame. It has not generally been known that the good roads idea had attained such substantial proportions as the new tenant of the Willard building indicates. Smithsonian's Nature Wonder Room for Children IN the Smithsonian Institution there is a room especially arranged for the children.

In the center is an aquarium of brightly colored fishes and tiny turtles. The wall cases, which are all low, so as to be within range of a child's vision, contain the different groups. The first, the "Largest and Smallest Birds of Prey," includes several birds ranging in size from the condor of the Andes to the tiny pygmy hawk. Next are the eagle and elf owls, followed by "Some Curious Birds," all of which live up to their general label; they comprise the toucan, with his absurdly overgrown bill, another bird whose bill seems to be upside down, a queer paradise bird with two very long head plumes, which appear like many small flags on thin rods, some bat-parakeets which sleep upside down, suspended by one foot, and an umbrella bird with a chrysanthemumlike crop of feathers for a topknot.

This deposit was opened about three years ago by workmen digging in a cut of the Western Maryland railroad. It is about 125 feet from the surface, which is a ridge composed at the bottom of limestone probably 15,000,000 years old. From the top of the ground there was a kind of tunnel, ending at the cave, which is now on a level with the roadbed.

These heavy weaves, including cotton corduroy and corded materials, are also shown in basket weaves. They are all used for the popular sport skirts and summer coats that are featured so strongly for street and outing wear. All of a sudden cretonnes have sprung into use in the making of apparel. Gayly flowered and quaintly figured cretonnes are used to make bright morning dresses and are called "garden" dresses. Floppy-brimmed hats or beach bonnets (which are sunbonnets parading under a new name) are worn with them and made of the same cretonne.

One of the best models for a coat of cotton corduroy, corded cloth, or fancy weaves in cotton, is shown in the picture given here. Like a few of the heavy linen weaves, it is unmusable. For decoration it depends upon machine stitching and buttons made by covering button molds with the fabric. It is cut along the same lines as popular sport coats of wool, with high, convertible collar, big pock- Ostrich Boa In E We Have Supplied Our Office with New Job Press & Type of Up-to-Date Style and Our Work Will Be on a Par with the Very Best. The ostrich boa has met with an unanticipated but enthusiastic revival of popularity, and seems destined to outdistance other kinds of fluffy and airy neckwear. The unusually cool weather of spring has made some sort of protection almost a necessity, and there is no denying the becomingness of soft feathers about the throat. Prices as Reasonable as Those of Any Job Office in Denver White fox, red fox and light gray or tan fur neckpieces one sees with the most summery of white turbans and flower-trimmed hats. This vogue is probably a reflection from the western coast, for visitors to the Panama exposition have found the weather cool and everyone indulging in the San Francisco privilege of wearing furs with summer gowns. The feather boa of today is short as to length, long as to fiber, and liked best in white, natural color or two-toned combinations. Occasionally a boa more than long enough to lie loosely about the throat is seen, but not often. They all fasten with bows of soft messaline ribbon, apparently, or the exception is so rare as to prove the rule. Very smart sets consisting of boa and ostrich-trimmed hats are shown, and there are great numbers of cockades, fans, and other fanciful ornaments made of ostrich to be used on midsummer hats. ets, and wide belt across the back. Among other new wraps of cotton for midsummer smocks made in white or blue or brown are commanding much attention. They are straight-hanging garments with the fullness taken up by old-fashioned "smocking" at the neck and at the ends of the sleeves. Cretonnes in small figures are used for the collar and cuffs and are chosen in strong color contrasts. The white smocks are prettiest, but those in light brown are equally smart. They are the something new in outer garments that women are all ready to welcome. Poke Bonnets. Adorable poke bonnets in the same pretty coloring show to advantage atop blonde curls, for, unlike our American kiddies, the bobbed hair effect is not being worn on the other side of the water. The little girls all have their hair long and flowing over their shoulders and of course it curls whether naturelle or a la kide or poker. The British boy, no matter how tiny, spurs the bobbed effect also, and rears a close-cropped little bullet head proudly to the infantile fashionable world. nthusiastic Revival Three boas are shown here, one in white, one in the natural tan and white color of the feathers, and the third in black tipped with white. In the last the white flue is tied or pasted on to the colored flue, and there is an endless variety in combinations to choose from in boas made in this way. But the boa may be had now in any color, even the most unusual new tints and shades. It is to be remembered that a bit of rich and fuffy neckwear presupposes a hat to correspond. In the group pictures here a white fabric hat is shown trimmed with a pattern applied in small black beads about the brim edge. It has a collar of white ribbon with small squares of embroidery in black, and a white rose is mounted near the edge of the front brim. The second bead-trimmed hat shows a reversal of color; white beads are applied to a black hemp shape with facing of white crape. JULIA BOTTOMLEY. Pearl Ornaments. Pearl ornaments may be elegantly polished by first rubbing the olive oil to remove the dirty appearance, then applying any red nail polish. This latter gives a burnished appearance, and with a little fast rubbing the pearl takes on a brilliant glow. RESIDENCE PHONE YORK 7992. FRANK S.
