THE COLORADO STATESMAN THE JOURNAL OF THE WEST. LABOR SHALL BE FREE RACE COUNTRY PARTY VOL. XXVIII. DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, AUGUST 5 1922 NO 4 Florida Party Would Bar Negro From Politics Florida Party Would Bar Negro From Politics Will Test Power by Espousing Cause of Candidates for United States Senate—Promoters Claim Negro Exercising too Much Power. Orlando, Fla., July 22.—The Independent Republican party of the state of Florida is the name of the newly formed political organization which announces as its avowed purpose the elimination of the Negro from Republican politics in the South. In order to test the strength of the principles of the new party, the promoters announced that in the election next November, W. C. Lawson of this city would be its candidate for the United States Senate against regular Republican candidate, should one be nominated. "The Negro is demanding too much and is exercising entirely too much power," said the chairman of the new party at the meeting, held in the court house last night, "and in doing so he is encroaching on the rights of the white South. It will be satisfactory to a minority of southern Republicans to have the Negro voter entirely eliminated from politics." The comment of many prominent Negro leaders of the state, when told of the announcement of the new party having been launched, was that nothing at all is to be feared due to the acts of a few disappointed office seekers who have been defeated at the polls, not only due to their selfishness, but due to a thoroughy antagonistic spirit toward the Negro which is unjust and unwarranted. 50,000 NEGROES ASK FREE NATION ALL OF THEIR OWN. "Negro Moses" Says No World Peace Until Whites Greet Negro as Equal. New York, Aug. 2.—Calling upon the nations of the world to grant the Negroes complete emancipation by aiding them to establish a nation of their own, Marcus Garvey, "provisional president of Africa," addressed 5,000 Negro men and women from all parts of the world gathered here to attend the third annual convention of the Universal Negro Improvement Association at the Seventy-first regiment armory Tuesday night. Salvos of applause greeted the self-styled "Negro Moses" at his first appearance at the opening of the thirty-one day convention in Liberty Hall. He was vociferously greeted by 50,000 of his race as he rode thru the streets of Harlem. "The new Negro desires nationhood," Garvey declared. "In America we have the problem of lynching, peonage and disenfranchisement. In other countries there is industrial and political inequality. In Africa, in addition, we have outright slavery. We are 400,000,000 peoples asking for liberty." There will be no world peace, Garvey asserted, until all other races greet the Negro as equal and create a better feeling. If England, France and Italy sincerely desire peace, they "must pack their bag and baggage and clear out of Africa," Garvey declared. Negro Newspapers In United States Statistical Inquiry of Occupations, Personal, Etc. Approximately one thousand one hundred and ninety-eight Negroes, in virtually every trade and occupation, and sixty-one white workers, form the working personnel of 113 newspapers and fourteen magazines owned and directed by Negro proprietors in thirty states and the District of Columbia. The grand total of 2,259, which also includes approximately 185 Negro female workers, is made up of the following trade increments? Proprietors or managers, 204; editorial and clerical workers, 393; foremen, 69; compositors, 103; linotype operators, 70; machinists, 21; admen, 32; make-up men, 38; floormen, 16; proof-readers, 47; stereotypers, 2; electotypers, 2; pressmen, 84; bookbinders, 36; mailers, 104, and all other tradesmen, 38. The 61 white workers, aside from 4 of their number who exclusively comprise the electrotyping and stereotyping occupations of the 127 publications studied, are sparsely distributed from linotype operators to mailers, and other skilled-to-unskilled occupations. The 127 papers and periodicals are further classified as 96 secular, 23 religious and 8 fraternal publications, of whose number 98, 22 and 3 are published weekly, monthly and daily, respectively. Two are bi-monthly issues and of the remaining two, one is a biweekly and one is a quarterly publication. Sixty-three of the above publications maintain and operate their own presses, and an additional seven conduct a general printing and publishing business for contract work of a book or job nature. The composing work of seventy of the publications is done at the plants by skilled Negro compositors and their associates. These statistics are taken from a summary of the newspaper and publishing industry prepared by Phil H. Brown of the U. S. Department of Labor, who conducted an inquiry among the 350 publications listed with the department as of 1918. Of this number, 42 have suspended publication since that year and 181 of the smaller papers failed to respond. Colored Man Files Suit Against U. S. Government Asking $100,000 Damages Colored Man Files Suit Against U. S. Government Asking $100,000 Damages Washington, D. C., July 23. Charging that American marines in Haiti caused him moral, physical and financial damage and drove him and his family from the island in an open canoe, Rev. L. F. Evans of Wyoming, Pa., Baptist missionary, filed a claim for $100,000 with the State Department. Dyer Seeks Re-election St. Louis, Mo., July 27.—L. C. Dyer, representative from the Twelfth Missouri district, is a candidate for renomination and election. In a statement to his headquarters today he said: "I must depend on my friends to make an active campaign for my renomination. All my time is taken up looking after the interest of my constituents in Congress." State Hist & Nat Society State House LIABLE PEOPLE RADC THE JOURNAL DENVER, C ABLE PEOPLE'S PA ADO E JOURNAL DENVER, COLORADO, SA Haitian Editor Jailed for Protesting Against Forced Loan J. Jolibois, of Pourt-au-Prince, Haiti, editor of Le Courrier Haitien, a leading newspaper of Haiti, was twice arrested and confined to jail during the month of June, for protesting against certain financial powers in the United States forcing a loan of $40,000,000 on the Haitian government, according to a letter received and made public today by James Weldon Johnson, secretary of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, M. Jolibois has been one of the most outspoken of Haitian leaders in denouncing the acts of the American Occupation. In commenting on the arrest of M. Jolibois and the causes of his having been imprisoned, Mr. Johnson said: "It is obvious that the efforts now being made to force this loan of $40,00000 on the Haitian government, which the Haitians declare they do not need and do not want, is for the purpose of future justification of continuance of the occupation of Haiti by the United States government. When unpleasantly direct demands are made on the American government in the future to end the occupation of this republic, the obvious retort will be that such a step would be impracticable until money loaned by American banking houses is repaid. "The arrest and imprisonment of M. Jollibois for daring to speak out on a matter regarding which there should be the utmost freedom of speech and press is simply another incident in what is already a record of imperial despotism. In spite of the recent report by the Senate committee, headed by Senator McCormick of Illinois, which almost completely absolves the occupation of all blame, the case of M. Jollibois is indicative of just what our neighbors to the south are undergoing in the process of 'benevolent tutelage' by the American government." Catholic School Confers Degree On Colored Man Catholic School Confers Degree On Colored Man Washington, July 23.—Prof. George Morton Lightfoot, well-known scholar, educator and editor, of the Howard University Faculty, has satisfied the requirements of the Catholic University of America for the Master's Degree in Classical Philology. In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree he presented a 48-page thesis on "The Question of the Origin of Roman Satire," in which discussion he makes a survey of the lengthy and ingenious debate which has continued almost without cessation for over half a century. After a thoro investigation of the various claims of priority in producing satire, Professor Lightfoot establishes his conclusion that "the Romans were the first to produce and to develop the satire as a separate and distinct type of literary expression." Professor Lightfoot is a product of the Preparatory Department of Howard University. His college career was spent at Williams College. His successful scholarship at Williams won him a teachership in the Preparatory Department at Howard University and later he was given a teaching place in the college, where he has been employed ever since as Professor of Latin Language and Literature. --- --- Mrs. Margaret Hill To Address Women Invited to Speak at Biennial Session of Colored Women's Clubs. 1,000 DELEGATES EXPECTED Richmond, Va., July 27.—Colored Club Women of America, our Thirteenth Biennial Session, Aug. 6-12, Richmond, will be an epoch maker in the progress of our work.

Scott, honor graduate of the Phillips Exeter Academy, Exeter, New Hampshire, and graduate in civil engineering of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, has just been appointed to a position in the office of the chief engineer, maintenance department, of the Boston Elevated Railway. The Boston Chronicle, in its issue of July 15, says: "Mr. Scott is the first colored man to become an employé of the engineering department of the Boston Elevated." FRANK FRUEAUFF, PRESIDENT OF DENVER GAS & ELECTRIC LIGHT COMPANY, DIES SUDDENLY IN NEW YORK, MONDAY, JULY 31. The Grim Monster has again invaded the ranks of the business world, and snatched one of its members who during a period of fifteen to twenty years rose from a humble position to one of eminence and fame in Denver and New York great business circles. Mr. Frueauff has occupied, it is stated, every position in the Denver Gas & Electric Light Company up to the presidency, and his ability for financial constructive operations resulting in wonderful success for the many companies he was associated with, won for him a distinction which few men of his age achieved in the comparative few years of his existence. The internationally known firm of Henry Doherty Company was not slow to recognize the great business acumen of Mr. Frueauff, who can well be called a Colorado product, as he was first educated in the graded and high schools of Leadville and Denver, Colorado, and distinguished himself with such honors as to win the attention of critical educationists of the West. The deceased had a warm spot in his heart for Denver, and as he often expressed, felt at home whenever he returned on a visit to his relatives or on business. For the past few years he resided in New York. He was stricken in his office last Monday, returning home and dying shortly afterwards from an attack of acute indigestion. But 48 years old, and this man beyond a doubt has established the fact of what can be achieved by the youth with perseverance, ability and that assiduousness to duty which is meritorious of success. Such characters of the world "never die," as their achievements and contribution to good government cannot but compel a perpetual life in the memory of the human family. Denver has lost a worthy citizen; the business world an invaluable asset; the nation A MAN, and so by way of consolation we can only remind ourselves of the poetic lines: "The boast of heraldry, the pomp of power, And all that beauty, all that wealth e'er gave, Await alike the inevitable hour; The paths of glory lead but to the grave." grave. THE COLORADO STATESMAN having been personally asquainted with Mr. Frueauff for several years, and having had an opportunity of receiving on more than one occasion the benefits of his wise business counsel, joins the business fraternity of Colorado and the hosts of American citizens in paying its respects to the memory of such a distinguished citizen, and offers its sincere condolence to his greatly bereaved wife, daughters, mother and other relatives.

Thompson of Sierra Leone Is the First Full Blooded West African to Secure Honor at Bar Finals. MAKES ADDRESS FOR CLASS London, Eng., July 26.—Mr. G. M. C. Thompson (holder of a Certificate of Honor awarded Easter term, 1919). M. A., B. C. I. (Durham), and LL. B. (London), was called to the Bar at the Inns of Court last week, and in virtue of the honor he had won was called upon to make the customary speech to the Benchers. As already known the young barrister is the son of Mr. Max Thompson of Sierra Leone and as the Sunday Times said, "It was an impressive example of the solidarity of the British Empire that at the call to the Bar of students of the Inner Temple, the leader and spokesman of the young barristers was Mr. Thompson, who belongs to a family of Freetown, who, on behalf of his brethren of all shades and color, made a speech acknowledging the honor conferred upon them by the Benchers of the Inn." Mr. Thompson was educated at Durliam University (Fourah Bay College), and won his Bachelor of Arts and Licentiate in Theology at the age of 19. On taking up the law, he proceeded to the further degrees in his University Master of Arts and Bachelor of Civil Law in 1915. He was not long in establishing a record for West Africans in passing successfully in his first term at the Inns of Courts all the subjects in the first part of the Bar exams, and was placed alone in the first-class honors list in Constitutional Law and Legal History. Mr. Thompson appeared to enjoy facing law examiners, for he set himself to secure the Bachelor of Laws in the University of London, and his efforts resulted in placing him in the second-class honors list. Finally, he has been rewarded with a first-class honor at the Bar Final, an attainment never hitherto reached by a full-blooded West African. Tulsa Hotel Servants Must Be Licensed Commission Passes Ordinance Giving Full Control to Police of Oklahoma City.

A fine of $20 is provided for any person that takes one of these positions or for any employer who hires one without license and identification. The ordinance designates the above-named employees and then includes a broader sweep by qualifying that "any employee or servant around a hotel whose duties bring them in contact or require, them to act as messengers for or to render service to the guests of the hotel at their rooms" shall be included.

France will impose penalties of an economic and financial character upon Germany because of her refusal to continue payments on the debts contracted by her nationals with allied nationals before the war, it was said in official circles at Paris. Horatio Bottomley, former publisher of the anti-American publication, "John Bull," was expelled from the House of Commons, London, by a unanimous vote. Bottomley recently was sentenced to seven years' imprisonment for embezzling funds from patriotic organizations he organized. The end of the season homeward movement of Americans has been accelerated by an official announcement by the French bureau of statistics that the cost of living is doomed to rise 25 per cent within the next few months. Many who had intended to remain for some time have changed their minds and the booking passage. The body of City Receiver Clement Denize, Port Au Prince, Haiti, was found recently, a wound in the head indicating he had been murdered. This follows closely the attempted shooting of Mayor Edouard Mandones, for which a minor city official is under arrest, and which was regarded as a development from the mayor's activities in unearthing alleged local graft. Engene Jova, acting American consular agent, captured by bandits at Sagua la Grande, Cuba, and held for $20,000 ransom, escaped recently, but was badly wounded as he made his break for liberty. There were five danger wounds in the young man's body when he was found in a ranch house in which he had sought shelter, but he was able to give the authorities information which was expected to lead to the capture of the bandits. Because of the technical state of war still existing between the allied powers and Turkey, the plan of the British, French and Italian and American governments to investigate jointly alleged Turkish atrocities in Anatolia has been abandoned and an inquiry is to be made instead by the International Red Cross. The change in plans was made at the suggestion of the British and French officials after the United States had indicated its willingness to take part in a joint governmental investigation. GENERAL Mrs. Angie M. Booth, widow of the former head of the Ward Steamship Company, left an estate whose value will aggregate between $8,000,000 and $12,000,000, it was disclosed in Surrogate Court in Chicago. A special commission of the grand lodge of Masons in New York state, headed by Supreme Court Justice Arthur C. Tompkins, grand master, sailed on the Frederick VIII, to constitute the first Masonic lodge in the republic of Finland. It will be located at Helsingfors. Report was confirmed by W. J. O'Connor, assistant manager of the American Smelting and Refining Company's smelter at East Helena, Mont., that the wage scale at the plant would be increased 50 cents a day. The smelter will thus be paying the same scale which will prevail in other places in Montana for similar work, said Mr. O'Connor. S. C. Freiden, president of the Citizens' Ice and Coal Company of Council Bluffs, was shot and instantly killed, it is alleged, by Mrs. Linda Taylor, wife of William Taylor. Mrs. Taylor alleges that about one week ago when Freiden came to her house to collect a bill he assaulted her; that county officials refused to take any action and that when Freiden again appeared at her home she shot him. Frank and Will Brown, aged 14 and 16 years, are in jail at Bluefield, W. Va., charged with having killed their father, Elias Brown, as he was sleeping in his cabin near Bradshaw. The lads told a deputy sheriff that the parent abused them and when he fell asleep they obtained a shotgun and killed him. Three men on the wagon bridge spanning the west end of Ray yards, freight terminal at the outskirts of Denison, recently fired on Texas national guard troops protecting that section of the railroad property at Denison. An exchange of about fifty shots between the men and the soldiers followed. No casualties were reported. Benny Leonard, world's lightweight boxing champion, successfully defended his title against Lew Tendler of Philadelphia in a twelve-round no-decision contest at Jersey City, N. J. earning in the opinion of a majority of sport writers at the ringside, a narrow shade in a great struggle. The challenger, a left-hander, furnished the champion the most interesting combat Leonard has had since he turned back Billie Ritehie some years ago. Confidence that Japan is making a sincere effort to live up to the treaties and agreements made at the Washington arms limitation conference, and a belief that strong leadership is the pressing need of China, were expressed recently by Secretary of the Navy Denby, in an interview discussing Oriental affairs. More than a hundred persons were injured and an entire neighborhood terrorized in Chicago by the explosion of more than 4,000,000 feet of gas and the collapse of its container. The loss was estimated at $50,000. AN EPITOME OF LATE LIVE NEWS CONDENSED RECORD OF THE PROGRESS OF EVENTS AT HOME AND ABROAD. FROM ALL SOURCES SAYINGS, DOINGS, ACHIEVEMENTS, SUFFERINGS, HOPES AND FEARS OF MANKIND. WESTERN Three small boys, the children of Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Alax, were drowned when the automobile in which they were passengers with their parents, backed off the St. Johns ferry at the east side of the Williamette river at Portland, Ore. Armed raiders in automobiles swooped down on the South Pacific railroad shops at Colfax, Calif., and after firing several volleys at the windows, which were shattered, and at the walls of the plant, withdrew as mysteriously as they had come. Nobody was injured. Lives of scores were imperiled recently as the Japanese steamer Hawaii Maru collided during a dense fog with the Puget Sound passenger steamer Calista off West Point, eight miles from Seattle. The Calista sank within ten minutes after the accident. All the Calista's passengers and crew were saved. Union printers will return to their former positions in the newspaper and job departments of the Billings Gazette, according to an announcement. Printers in the newspaper department have been on strike since May 1, while those in the job office have been out for more than a year. The pressrooms are included in the settlement. Isadore R. Eidelstein, alleged by local police to be a notorious safe burglar, with a long criminal record, is accused of having burglarized, single handed, eighty vaults in the Paulsen building at Spokane in a first-degree burglary warrant sworn out by Detective Chester Edwards. There are now out for the arrest of the vault robber and the recovery of stolen bonds, rewards aggregating $9,500. The public of the United States and the world at large has been "deliberately misinformed as to the results of prohibition in San Francisco," and "there has been a decided increase in the number of inmates in state corrective institutions since prohibition began," the Grain Trade Association of the San Francisco Chamber of Commerce said in resolutions made public recently. The total monthly arrests in the city for intoxication have "steadily and rapidly increased since the first month of prohibition," the resolution said. They continued that not only has there been an increase in the number of inmates in state prisons, insane asylums and institutions for the feeble-minded, but a decided increase in serious crime. WASHINGTON Robert B. Kerr has been nominated to be postmaster at North Grosvenor Dale, Colo. Warnings against unofficial promoters of colonization schemes in South America has been issued by the Commerce Department which added that such promoters have been particularly active in the Western states. Many Americans going to South America as colonists have found that they invested their savings in land in the remote wilderness, the department said. Carrying orders to eject forcibly if necessary representatives of the Mutual Oil Company from the Teapot dome naval oil reserve in Wyoming, Capt.

Haskell, head of the American relief administration forces in Russia; former Governor Goodrich of Indiana and other officials to decide the future program for Russian relief. Vice President Coolidge left Washington recently for Boston, starting a trip that will occupy two or three weeks and take him to the Pacific coast. The vice president plans to leave soon for San Francisco, where he will address the American Bar Association convention Aug. 10. The present itinerary of Mr. Coolidge calls for visits to Portland, Ore., and Seattle, but no speeches are planned. He will return east through Canada. Whether the administration tariff bill will be enacted before the November elections has again become the subject of private discussion at the capitol. There is a more or less general belief now in the Senate that the measure cannot be brought to a final vote in that body before Sept. 15, and there are those who believe the ironing out of differences between the Senate and the House in conference will be such a slow and tedious process that it cannot be completed before Congress goes home for the fall campaign. OPPOSES VOTE ON TARIFF BILL SENATOR LENROOT UPSETS THE PLANS FOR FINAL VOTE ON AUGUST SEVENTEEN. ASKS PROBE OF PRESS GOODING OF IDAHO INTRODUCES RESOLUTION FOR PROBE OF PRESS. Washington.—Upsetting plans of Republican and Democratic leaders for a final vote on the administration tariff bill on Aug. 17, Senator Lenroot, Republican, Wisconsin, gave notice in the Senate that there would be no unanimous consent agreement for a final vote, at least until all important committee amendments to the measure had been discussed and acted upon. The Wisconsin senator said he was anxious to limit debate and proposed an arrangement under which discussion would have been confined exclusively to the tariff with each senator limited to ten minutes' talk on amendments on the bill after Aug. 11. Senator Lodge, the Republican leader, objected to this, however, and the effort to come to an understanding in the open Senate ended. Senator Gooding of Idaho, chairman of the Republican agricultural tariff bloc, introduced his resolution directing a special committee of five senators to inquire into and report to the Senate on: "The financial interests of senators in the wool and sheep industries. "The financial interests of Mr. Frank A. Munsey in European industries which compete with American industries; the amount and percentage of his income derived from advertisements placed in his newspapers by the importing department stores which have financed a campaign of defamation against the pending tariff bill and which will profit by the defeat of the bill. "The number of senators owning or controlling or financially interested in newspapers, the amount of revenue obtained by these newspapers from its importing department stores, which will benefit financially by the defeat of the pending tariff bill. "The financial interests of all members of the senate, or their relatives, in any American industry or in any property in any community in the United States which may be affected, directly or indirectly, either by the passage or defeat of any proposed schedule in the pending tariff bill." The preamble of the resolution recited that charges had been made by the New York Herald, owned by Mr. Munsey, "that members of the senate are engaged in the sheep industry had thereby been financially interested in the wool schedule of the tariff bill." Senator Harrison and Senator Simmons, Democrats, North Carolina, contended that the Gooding resolution seemed to propose an investigation of no publications other than the Munsey newspapers, and suggested that the inquiry be extended to all dailies attacking the tariff. Chemical wool pulp was restored to the tariff free list by the senate, which rejected, 30 to 22, an amendment proposed by the finance committee majority to make it dutiful at 5 per cent ad valorem. Three senators who publish newspapers—Capper of Kansas, Glass of Virginia and Hitchcock of Nebraska—withheld their votes. Opponents urged that a duty on this pulp would result in the denuding of American forests, and also that it would constitute a tax on the dissemination of knowledge. Proponents argued that only a small proportion of the timber cut annually went into pulp; that the industry needed protection from Canadian mills and, finally, the tax imposed, while only a small burden on the newspapers, would yield the government $3,000,000 in revenue. Mob Kills Rail Worker. Chicagob.—Robert Johnson, 42, a carpenter employed in the Illinois Central shops, was beaten to death a few days ago by men said by the police to be striking shopmen. Johnson was waylaid in a vacant lot while on his way to work. Charles Krupusch, a repairman, was beaten into insensibility because he refused to join the strikers. Harding Names Nebraskan. Washington.—Fred K. Nielsen of Nebraska, solicitor for the state department, was nominated by President Harding to be agent of the United States on the British-American claims commission. Twelve Rail Unions May Strike. Chicago.—E. J. Manion of St. Louis, president of the Railway Telegraphers, has sent letters to the heads of the twelve railroad unions not on strike suggesting a meeting to discuss the growing tendency to involve their men in the shopmen's strike. Mr. Manion's letter, it was learned, pointed out that the members of the twelve unions still at work had many problems in relation to the strike and suggested the advisability of a conference of the twelve grand chiefs.

THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE of the Denver branch held a very important meeting Saturday evening last at the residence of the secretary, Mrs. M. Flora Stell. It was the first meeting of the summer months and Attorney Blakemore reported many activities of the Legal Redress department during the past two months. The branch will ask that the Republican state convention to be held here next Wednesday pass a resolution calling upon the U. S. Senate to speedily pass the Dyer anti-lynching bill. BOULDER. COLO.. NEWS. Mr. Jenkins of Denver was a Boulder visitor Sunday, visiting his wife, Mrs. A. Jenkins, and family. Mrs. Blanche Foster was a Boulder visitor recently, visiting Mrs. A. Jenkins. Mrs. Jenkins is planning an Emancipation celebration at her home at Twenty-eighth and Mapleton. She expects to have quite a number of people from Denyer. Reverend Carter filled the pulpit at Allen Chapel at both morning and evening services Sunday, the 30th. The program at the Baptist Church was rendered by the young people. Those taking part were: Mr. Maxwell, who gave a paper on "Science and a Liberal Education;" Miss Ethel Townsend and Miss Clara Reeves, who gave a piano duet; Miss Ruth Caves, a vocal solo; Mr. Irvin Lingham, a violin solo. The program was enjoyed by all who attended. Mrs. Mary White, superintendent of Allen Chapel Sunday School, gave the children and all grown-ups who would go a basket picnic at the Chautauqua grounds last week. Everyone who went reports a real good time, although in the afternoon and the picnickers had to leave early. "Sometimes, John," said Brashkin's wife, "I do get a little discouraged, and think you are hard to please." "You don't say so." was the astonishing rejoinder.

YOUR PRINTING In A Valuable Asset of Your Business We Help Our Customers to Success With Presentable, Profitable PUBLICITY ARE YOU GUILTY? A FARMER carrying an express package from a big mail-order house was accosted by a local dealer. "Why didn't you buy that bill of goods from me? I could have saved you the express, and besides you would have been patronizing a home store, which helps pay the taxes and builds up this locality." The farmer looked at the merchant a moment and then said: "Why don't you patronize your home paper and advertise? I read it and didn't know that you had the stuff I have here."

Jane Hooper Vernell was born in Aberdeen, Hartford county, Maryland, February 16, 1847; died Thursday morning, July 27, 1922, at 8:10, aged 75 years 5 months and 11 days. When she was 14 years of age she left home and went to Baltimore, Md., remaining there during the Civil war period. At 17 she professed her faith in Jesus Christ at Big Bethel A. M. E. Church, under Elder Handy, who later became a bishop. She steadfastly held to this faith until her death. She moved to New York City in 1870 and took cooking lessons under a noted French chef. She was a charter member of the Cooks and Waiters Society, an association still in existence. She married James Vernell August 26, 1875. From this union one son, Walter H. Vernell, survives her. She remained in New York City until 1881, when she journeyed westward, arriving in Denver, Colo., May 3, 1881. She joined Shorter's church here when it stood at nineteenth and Stout streets. Rex. Braxton was the pastor. For thirty years she was an active member, until sickness prevented her from taking further part. She was well known in church circles and her management of church affairs, as well as the many large contributions she gathered from her numerous white friends, gave her a well-merited popularity in the community. She was the first colored cateress in the city of Denver, and followed this vocation for twenty-five years. Many noted social functions and wedding parties of Denver's most exclusive society are accredited to her ingenuity. She was one of the charter members of the Western Loan and Investment Association, a corporation founded over twenty-five years ago, and which is one of the notable business landmarks of Denver, Colo., exclusively operated by our people. Her career has left a standard, a very ideal worthy of emulation, and having been permitted to live beyond the biblical allotment of three score years and ten, the surviving relatives and friends of this good Mother of Israel can find much consolation that she lived her life well and did to the best of her ability what she could. Funeral services were held Sunday, July 30, 2 p. m., from the home of her sister-in-law, Mrs. Mary Hooper, 2325 Clarkson street, Revs. W. H. Thomas and H. E. Rahming officiating, while the choir of the Shorter A. M. E. Church rendered favorite hymns and songs of the deceased. The floral tributes were numerous, rare and beautiful, and a large number of citizens paid their last respect to the memory of a woman who contributed to the welfare of her people and the community in general. Interment at Fairmount cemetery. She leaves a son, daughter-in-law, two sisters, two brothers, a number of nieces and nephews and a host of friends of both races to mourn her irreparable loss. The COLORADO STATESMAN offers its sincere condolence to the bereaved relatives over the loss of a faithful friend, and a supporter and advocate of everything uplifting to a community. May her soul rest in peace.

We first went to the show and then for a walk. When we were about three blocks from his home we met his father. My beau tried to hide, but his father saw him and took him home. I followed, and when they came to his house, I stood there and listened to him yelling. The next day at school I made fun of him, but he only smiled and said sweetly that mine was coming, because his father had told my father—Chicago Journal. PUBLIC TRUSTEE'S SALE.

If put on carefully the vaseline will not spread and is a sure preventive against rust. Also, always stand wet umbrellas on their handle to dry.

THE COUNTRY is slowly but surely recovering from the industrial illness brought on by a partial paralysis of its nervous system thru a series of strikes and rumors of strikes during the recent months. True, a complete recovery is not yet in sight, but optimism is in the air, and a cheerful patient always recovers faster than one who sees nothing but approaching dissolution The agony is not all gone; some of it may linger as long as we live, but the worst of it is over. The more a patient allows himself to be discouraged the longer he will remain upon his back. But the patient is now sitting up and asking for nourishment. To carry the metaphor a little farther, it is well to note that as a man is no younger and no better than his arteries, so a nation can be no better nor stronger than its transportation arteries. Thus we are glad to observe anything that looks like a settlement of the strike conditions in this country. We have endured such a succession of labor unrest, business failures and undercurrents of group nervousness that we wonder whether or not we are far from a certain stage of mass insanity. The world ate a lot of bad mental and economic food during the war, and in an effort to keep up the diet we find it exceedingly difficult to digest to-day. But we are rapidly approaching a settlement of the present labor dispute between the railroad labor board, the railway executives and the labor unions, and with a settlement we will see a rapid revival of business conditions the country over. The important thing to keep in mind during these strenuous times is that the malady causing our present ills is not fatal. We have recovered from it before and will recover from it again. PREACHING CHRIST BUT NOT CHRISTIANITY. ADISTINGUISHED Christian missionary to India recently arose to deliver an address to a large concourse of natives, when he was approached by an official and warned that he could preach Christ but not of Christianity. The astonished missionary called for an explanation, and was told "that the Far East has come to look upon Christ as meaning one thing and Christianity something very different. That Christ was adored and loved as the Prince of Peace, but that Christian nations were war-loving, war-promoting and the greatest possible agencies of bloodshed." The picture may have been overdrawn, but not excessively so, for applied Christianity has failed—dismally failed—to make the doctrine of peace effective throughout the world. Even in nations where Christian teaching holds by far the preponderance of the populace, this is only too true. For centuries we have regarded Christianity as the herald of peace, and consequently the highest instrumentality of actual progress. The great world war served to show how sadly we were mistaken. The startling thing is that it should take a follower of the Moslem religion to make an open demonstration of the fact. We of this country have long since observed, in comparative silence, that while Christ was being generously preached, the actual practice of Christianity was painfully wanting. We have been lacking in the blunt frankness of the Oriental. Yet we confess to ourselves that mere lip service, devoid of heart devotion is of itself a living lie. We look upon the remarkable chasm that yawns between precept and example in our Christian religion as a mere matter of course, neither to be bridged over nor fathomed. The Moslem is more consistent. The sword as a means of conversion is a large part of the religious cult of the Mohamedans, and they practice it with amazing constancy. But in all their history nothing can be found to equal in wanton destruction the bloody world war, over which we are still quibbling. "Preach Christ, but not Christianity," thunders the Oriental, for, he continues, "we find that Christianity, the cannon ball, the submarine and gas bomb go hand in hand. It is a sweeping indictment but rigidly true. However, it is fortunate for us and for the security we feel in our own religious berth that the native of India is not much of a traveler. For the most he is content with conditions as he finds them in his own country and seldom seeks the higher civilization supposed to abound in strictly Christian nations. We tremble at the formidable array of weapons he would offer as the handmaiden of our religious cult were he to invade the American shores. We fear that the admonition and rebuke he would offer to the next missionary that visited his country would be even more stinging and severe than the one in question. Just what the Oriental would think of Christianity and the lynchers' rope, mob violence and its fury, the applying of the torch to the kerosene-soaked bodies of human beings, the denial of every vestige of the principles of the brotherhood of man, is simply too terrible to contemplate. Perhaps, after all, the East Indian official simply meant that we should keep our missionaries at home. If so, there is a trite lesson in the suggestion. We are told that the department of humane education of a large and influential denominational sect in this country recently drew up a set of "Ten Commandments" which are to be founded upon the principles of human kindness and justice. Carefully scanning the list we find that they forbid the killing of birds or animals for sport, or in contests of skill or for gain. They forbid the promotion of bloody fights between fowls or animals, together with the use of furs and feathers that involve the death of those that produce them. It is an excellent start and evidently founded upon the principles of a partial conception of the Christian faith. But their efficaciousness will be limited to the point of hypocrisy unless meaningly extended to include human beings. The conscience of man cannot be alone relieved by a merciful consideration for the "fowls of the air and the beasts of the forests." It is not too much to say that America is today the Gethsemane of modern civilization. Selfishness and pride pursue their way unchecked. Moral principles are tootering and our disrespect for law and order continues to grow. We do not need more preaching. America would be just as well off if another sermon was never sounded. The needful thing, however, is a lodgement of the sacred truths of the gospel of Christ within the hearts of men, for it is only by a return to the gospel that human society can find its salvation. requested the members to subscribe to stock for the completion of the project. The chairman in his usual deliberative and logical style encouraged members in their efforts, and emphasized the necessity for REAL SERVICE to a people, to a community, country and nation in the co-operation for the advancement of good government. A special feature of the evening's program was the endorsement of a resolution from the Elks lodge, Mountain No. 39, in helping to send a delegation to Newark, New Jersey, on August 22 in their efforts to secure the National Sanatorium of that Order for Denver, Colorado. A neat sum was voted towards this cause. The slogan for the proposed building, as the president, Thomas Campbell, puts it, is a long pull, a strong pull, and a pull all together; and Secretary Chapman and his assistant Lawson say—"LET'S GO."

Mr. Davis has been prominent in lodge circles for several years, and has always thru his mannerism, geniality and energetic tendency won the esteem and respect of the community. He was Chancellor Commander of Pythias Lodge No. 11 and conducted its affairs with such credit to the order that material support was given to his election, which was by acclamation. The Colorado Statesman in its acquaintance and friendly relationship with Mr. Davis for a number of years can certify as to his ability to cope with the new position, and the young in years, there is every reason to believe that his experience in the different positions occupied by him in the fraternal society will qualify him to take hold of the reins and guide business of the Grand Lodge. We business of the Grand Yodge. We join heartily the members of the Knights of Pythias in wishing a very successful administration to Grand Chancellor Davis, and congratulate the Grand Lodge on their selection of such a head at this, one of the best sessions ever held in the Colorado jurisdiction.

John Wilson Croker, in a letter written shortly before his death in 1857, mentions that going over to the lords from the commons one evening he noticed, as a fact, "not unimportant to constitutional history," that every one of the 30 peers then present had sat with him in the house of commons. "It shows," he says, "how completely the house of commons has been the nursery of the house of lords." There are usually in the house of lords about 200 peers who have sat in the house of commons. After That He Evaded Traps "Why have I never married?" the confirmed bachelor repeated a leading question. "Well, once upon a time in a crowd I trod on a lady's gown. She turned, furiously, beginning, 'You clumsy brute.' Then she smiled sweetly, and said: 'Oh, I beg your pardon, I thought you were my husband. No, it really doesn't matter in the lenst.' And when I came to think it over I decided that I'd better let marriage alone." Legal Fiction. A fiction in law is an assumption made for the purpose of justice though the same fact could not be provd and may be literally untrue, and it a rule that a fiction of law shall work no wrong. The fictitious characters of John Doe and Richard Roe for the purposes of various actions are well known. A Howler From India. A glimmer of light is shown on the mystery of the simultaneous use of the bathroom for local and hydropathic exercises by the following, written by a student in India: "Climate has a great difference on character. We always observe that if a person enters a hot bathroom he is always compelled to sing and chant. The reason is that heat causes the expansion of the human soul as well as other bodies."—Boston Transcript. This Tells the Story MADAME T. D. PERKINS SCIENTIFIC SCALP SPECIALIST A. E. MADAME T. D.

When Alphonse Dindon, French murderer, was on his way to the guillotine with an unlit cigarette in his lips, one of the attendants asked him if he would like a match. "No, thank you!" was the bland answer. "I'll light it when I get there!" The Compleat Hostess At the Gardens', on Sunday afternoon, Mrs. Garden, vivacious, supple, with a sort of frosty, golden beauty, guiltless of make-up, but essentially artificial, was being everything to all men, and much to some women. "From Latchkey Ladies," by Mr. Grant. Copyright, 1922, Western Newspaper Union. "The world shoves angrily aside The man who stands with arms akimbo set Until occasion tells him what to do; And he who waits to have his task marked out Shall die and leave his errand unfulfilled." DELICIOUS MEATLESS DINNERS For those who must, and those who wish to leave meat out of the menn, the following recipes will prove suggestive: NO Mock Sausages.—Soak one-half cupful of lima beans overnight in water to cover. Drain and cook in salted water until soft. Put through a puree strainer, add one-third of a cupful of dried bread crumbs, three tablespoonfuls of butter, one-half teaspoonful of sage, one beaten egg, salt and pepper to season. Shape in the form of sausage, dip in beaten egg and bread crumbs and fry in deep fat. Serve with rings of tart apples fried. Arrange the apple slices overlapping around the platter. Serve boiled potatoes with a cheese sauce. Make a white sauce, adding as much grated cheese as one likes for flavor: more for nourishment. A salad of head lettuce sprinkled with a few nuts and served with French dressing will be good. The nuts may be omitted if the meal seems sufficiently nourishing for those to whom it is to be served. For dessert serve any fruit pie but apple, as the apple has already appeared in this menu. Another dinner-may begin with canteloupe or melon served as cocktail in cubes or balls, covered with a lemon or mint sauce. A tasty cream soup served with finger strips of buttered toast. A nut roast, using two cupfuls of rather coarsely chopped nuts mixed as one does with the ingredients used in a veal loaf. Baste during the baking and serve with a highly seasoned tomato sauce. A favorite dessert is cottage cheese, or cream cheese, mixed with a generous quantity of chopped seeded raisins, orange and lemon juice, with a very little of the orange rind grated in. This is rich and nutritious as well as delicious. For dessert, a delicious orange ice cream, using the juice of oranges, the grated rind of one, sugar, a dash of lemon and a cupful of cream to a cupful of orange juice. Freeze and serve in sherbet cups. Serve with: In the same oven with the roast bake the potatoes with two small sliced onions, six tablespoonfuls of any good oil (either olive or corn), one tablespoonful of minced parsley and salt and pepper. The onions may be omitted if not desired. Sliced cucumbers and onions with French dressing or a plain lettuce salad may be served. It is astonishing what a difference there is between the earning power of a man who does things pretty well and the man who does things badly as they can be done.-O. A. Marden. A STORY ABOUT STARCH We all know that starch, the important member of the carbohydrate family is indispen sable in balanced ration. Bread, which is the staff of life and plays an important part in every meal in every home from pensable in balanced ration. Bread, which is the staff of life and plays an important part in every meal in every home from palace to hovel, is a starch food. palace to novel, is a starch food. In all cereal grains as well as in roots, fruits and tubers, starch is found in greater or less quantity. It is found in stems such as celery, sage and rhubarb and in the leaves, as in spinach. Starch, a combination of three elements, six parts carbon, ten parts hydrogen and five parts oxygen, repens nature's wonderful way of storing food first for the seed of the plant to feed upon, then for the plant, and finally for man. From the first meal up to the present time starch has played an important part; it is today two-thirds of the human diet. Starch furnishes fuel to heat the human machine and create energy to run it. Under a microscope starch grains too small to be seen by the naked eye will be varied as to size according to their source and are shaped round or oval. Each little granule is a war terproof package, another example of the provision made by a wise Creator; this little granule has a tough outer coat and its contents consist of countless atoms. This coat protects this precious food from moisture and spoiling. As starch is found in such abun dance, it is easy to get and is the cheapest, which makes it so universally used. The transformation of starch into sugar includes thirty different stages; this is another proof of the wisdom of Providence, as sugar is the circulating source of heat and energy, the soluble form of starch. All starch must, then, be changed into sugar before it can be used as a body food. Nellie Maxwell SURPLUS CUCUMBERS BRINED ARE SUPERIOR FOR VARIOUS PICKLES MILK Pouring the Brine on the Pickles. (Prepared by the United States Department of Agriculture.) "Salt pickles" should be the basis of other kinds of pickled cucumbers except dills. Whatever the final disposition—as sour, sweet or mixed—the cucumbers should first receive a perfect curing in brine. Attempts to use short cuts or to make pickles "over night" are based on an erroneous conception as to what really constitutes a pickle. Directions for Salt Pickles. The United States Department of Agriculture gives the following directions for making salt pickles: Pack washed cucumbers in a clean stone jar. For this purpose use only the straight-sided, open-topped jars. A narrow-neck jar is not satisfactory for this purpose. The four-gallon size holds about 12 pounds of cucumbers. Cover with six quarts of a 10 per cent or 40 degrees brine (one pound of salt to nine pints of water). At the time of making up the brine, or not later than the following day, add more salt at the rate of one pound for every ten pounds of cucumbers used. For 12 pounds of cucumbers add one pound three ounces of salt to maintain the strength of the brine. Cover with a round board or plate and on top of this place a weight heavy enough to keep the cucumbers well below the surface. At the end of one week and of each succeeding week for five weeks add-for this amount of cucumbers one-fourth pound of salt. In adding salt always place it on the cover. If the salt is added directly to the brine it may sink to the bottom, as a result of which the salt solution at the bottom would be very strong, while near the surface it might be so weak that the pickles would spoil. A scum, made up usually of wild yeasts and molds, will form on the surface. This should be skimmed off. If pickles prepared in this way are well covered by the brine and if the surface remains clean they should keep indefinitely. After a partial soaking in water to remove excess of salt, these cucumbers may be eaten as salt pickles. Many prefer them in this form. Most people, however, like them better after they have been given an additional treatment in vinegar, or in vinegar combined with sugar and spices. If the salt pickles are to be made RAISINS ARE IDEAL WARM WEATHER FOOD Should Be Most Popular Throughout Summer Season. Ice Cream When Flavored With the Fruit Is Not Only a Cooling Con- The ability of raisins to revitalize the system with almost instant energy, through their sugar-content, makes them an ideal warm-weather food. For that reason, raisin food of all kinds should be most popular throughout the summer. Many every-day meals are composed of plain foods that can be made doubly attractive and healthful by the addition of this luscious California fruit. The most popular dish of the summer—ice cream—when flavored with raisins, is not only a cooling confection, but one that helps to take away the listlessness caused by warm weather. The cooling qualities of ice cream are but a temporary relief, it is pointed out. Combined with the delicious flavor of raisins, it is truly a delightful, healthful dish. The sugar in raisins is in practically predigested form, and is turned into energy almost immediately. This revitalizing quality of the raisin makes this fruit-food a boon to warm-weather fatigue and listlessness. Other foods than ice cream gain in taste and health benefit when flavored with raisins. The ordinary loaf of white bread is changed to a delightful favorite in almost every household by the simple addition of raisins. The luscious sugar-sauce flows from the raisins into the dough during the baking, giving the whole loaf a most delicious flavor. The iron content of raisins, long admitted to exceed that of other fruits, into sour, sweet or mixed pickles, the salt should be to a great extent, though not completely, removed by processing. This is done by heating them slowly, covered with water, to 120 degrees F., and holding them at that temperature 10 or 12 hours, stirring frequently. It may be necessary to repent this process several times until the product tastes right. After processing, they should be drained well and covered, at once with good clear vinegar of 40 to 60-grain strength (4 to 6 per cent of acetic acid). Fruit vinegar may be used if they are well filtered. If very sour pickles are preferred it would be well to use a 40-grain vinegar at first, and after a week or ten days transfer the pickles to a vinegar of the strength desired. To make sweet pickles the cucumbers are covered after processing with vinegar in which sugar is dissolved and usually spices. The amount of sugar may vary from four to ten pounds to the gallon of vinegar. Too much sugar shrivels and toughens the cucumbers. If a liquor containing more than four pounds of sugar to the gallon is desired it would be best not to exceed that amount at first but gradually to add sugar until the desired concentration is obtained. Spices are practically always added in making sweet pickles. These should not, however, be used in too large a quantity. One ounce of whole mixed spices to four gallons of pickles is a good proportion. Add the required amount of spice to the vinegar and hold it at the boiling point for not longer than one-half hour. Heating too long darkens the vinegar. Filter out the spices by pouring through cheesecloth. Sugar may be added at this time. Mixed Pickles. Various combinations of vegetables are used for making mixed pickles: Onions, cauliflower, green peppers, tomatoes and beans may be added to cucumbers. All the vegetables used should first be properly cured in brine in the same way as cucumbers. Very small vegetables or cut pieces are preferable. In no case should a hot brine be used to start a fermentation. It would probably kill the organisms present and prevent fermentation. is a blood-builder, needed in summer and winter alike. In easily assimilable form it is readily absorbed by the blood to replenish the small amount lost by the body daily. A raisin product at least once a day, and preferably at noon when the sun is hottest, will work wonders in restoring sapped energy during the summer months.

Denver.—A survey of the damage done by the flood in Denver, characterized as almost as bad as the flood of June, 1921, set $75,000 as the probable total loss to the city and to private homes and businesses. Colorado Springs.—Caught beneath the wheels of a southbound Santa Fe freight train and "ugged 200 feet, Frank Welch, 25 years old, of Lincoln, Neb., was so badly mangled physicians hold no hope for his recovery . Grand Junction.—Theodore Layton, 17 years old, son of E. Y. Layton, was drowned in the Colorado river while swimming with a number of companions. Efforts to rescue Layton were made, but did not prove successful. Boulder.—Thirty-one students from all parts of the United States are to spend the next three weeks in study of the mountain geology of Boulder county, and will spend an additional two weeks in the Estes Park region. Aurora.—Louis J. Walborn, postmaster at Fitzzimons hospital, has been arrested by postal inspectors, charged with the embezzlement of approximately $1,600. The money is said to have been removed from funds of the hospital postoffice in small amounts. Colorado Springs.—Samuel H. Kinsley, former judge of this judicial district, was elected president of the State Bar Association at the closing of the two-day session here. He succeeds George Manly, dean of the University of Denver law school. Herbert S. Hadley, on the law faculty of the University of Colorado, was named first vice president. Robert G. Bosworth, Denver, was re-elected secretary-treasurer. Aspen.—Sheriff Bruin captured Ben Feson, a Mexican fugitive from Lake county, in the railroad yards here. The Mexican is charged with assault with intent to kill, the victim of his attack being Jim Flaherty, a former section foreman at Malta, whom Feson is alleged to have struck on the head with a stone. Feson, it is charged, then jumped on the prostrate man and cut him badly with a knife. The fugitive crossed over the range and got as far as Aspen. Denver.—Governor Shoup has announced he will co-operate in every possible way with the federal fuel administration agencies and will appoint a state fuel advisory board when it is deemed necessary. Boulder. — Injunction proceeding may have been started at Fort Collins by John R. Wolff, Boulder attorney, in an effort to prevent the awarding of a contract for the Mapleton Hill paying district created by the city council. Mr. Wolff has been retained by property owners of the district, who failed to secure a 51 per cent petition by one 8 per cent, this being the method prescribed by the city charter for defeating such improvements. Golden.—Suit was filed in the District Court in Jefferson county to enjoin the issuance of $6,720,000 bonds by the Moffat Tunnel Commission and to prevent the making of an assessment of benefits as a basis for insuring the payment of these bonds by taxation, following construction of the project. The complaint was brought in view of the doubts that have been expressed as to the constitutionality of the Moffat tunnel act and as to the legality of the procedure which has been adopted by the tunnel commission itself. Durango.—All but two of the counties of Colorado were represented at the conference of agricultural workers in session at the Fort Lewis school. Following the address, of welcome given by Principal George F. Snyder of the school, Dr. Charles A. Lory, president of the State Agricultural College at Fort Collins, advocated radio in the extension work of the college. Castle Rock.—Thirty-five representative Douglas county citizens formed officially the Lions Club of Douglas county at a banquet held in the court house café here recently. Grand Valley.—Fires swept an entire block in the business section of Grand Valley causing damage approximating $100,000. The Odd Fellows building, the country club hotel, several stores, a pool hall, a soft drink parlor and a number of homes are destroyed. The fire started in the Odd Fellows building. Its origin has not been determined. Practically every grown person in the town, which has a population of about 600, assisted in the fight to subdue the fire, but their efforts, handicapped as they were by lack of facilities, were fruitless and the flames swept from building to building until every structure in the block had been destroyed. Denver.—According to a report by the district forest department, 1,000 acres of the national forest reserve have been destroyed by fire in this state since the first of the year. Three thousand six hundred dollars have been expended in suppression of the fires, 62 per cent of which have been traced to carelessness. Damage in 40 per cent of these has been settled by fines or payment of damages. Fifty per cent of last year's cases were settled in this manner. Rock Ford. The only real running race meet held in Colorado for many years will be that at Rocky Ford in connection with the fair to be held Sept. 5-8. There will be fifteen running events and the purses are large enough to attract some of the best horses in the West. The races will be run under Jockey Club rules and a well-known eastern starter will have charge of getting the ponies away from the gate. Cafon City.—Henry Wilson, 35, mule driver, and Ellis Meeks, 41, coal digger, both negroes, employed at the Chandler coal mine, seven miles south of Cafon City, are in jail here charged with dynamiting the home of Night Watchman J. C. Walker, also a negro, at Chandler. The rear end of the Walker home was blown out, but no one was injured, as the family was not at home at the time. Grand Junction.—A double knockout—two punches at the same time, two men lying flat on the canvas while the bewildered referee counted ten over both—was the ending of a bout here which, according to old-time boxing fans, is the queerest thing heard of in the history of the ring. Whitey Hutson of Grand Junction was striving to uphold the honor of his home town against Jack Bowns of Montrose. Cripple Creek.—The new ore body on the bottom level of the Portland mine, the most sensational strike of high-grade ore made in the Cripple Creek district in years, has been opened for a distance of 100 feet. Drifting continues in both the north and south breasts of the vein and the management expects when the ore shoot is fully developed it will be 1,000 feet long. Palisade.—Eli S. Sherman, 63, died at his home in Palisade. Death occurred while he was bathing, resulting from heart disease. Mr. Sherman had been editor of the Palisade Tribune for two years. Since going to Palisade from Denver, he has been active in Republican politics and a leader in the organization of fruit growers. He lived in Palisade thirteen years. La Junta.—P. H. Eckles, a worker at the Santa Fé railroad shops, was kidnapped by fifteen striking shopmen, taken several miles out of town and ordered to "head for Pike's Peak." Eckles was found wandering about an unfamiliar road by Sheriff Steward several hours after it became known that the kidnapping had occurred. Castle Rock—Lewis Tinker and John Shaw of Cheyenne were scratched and cut and thoroughly drenched when their automobile plunged into a fifteen-foot hole at a dry creek bridge near the John Dillon ranch, the driver not seeing that a flood had washed away the approaches to the bridge. Boulder.—A vest containing $300 in currency, two army discharge papers and a pension certificate, was stolen from under the pillow of a bed occupied by John Milton Montgomery, Civil war veteran, at the Alma hotel here, according to a report made by him to the police. Magnolia.—A forest fire started by careless campers did some damage in this region recently. The flames were fought by mountain hikers. Mountain clubs and city officials of Boulder are co-operating with forest rangers in a campaign to warn picnickers and campers of the peril of carelessness with taches, camp fires and tobacco. Denver.—Fair prices on lump coal, f. o. b cars at the mine, should not exceed $3.90 a ton and the slack price should not be in excess of $1.80 a ton, f. o. b cars at the mine. This was the report of Governor Shoup's "fair price coal commission," which was named to set a reasonable price on coal, especially that produced and shipped from the northern fields of the state. This price, it was said, applies to coal produced in the entire northern field except Boulder county, where it was suggested that $1 per ton be added. Golden.—The summer school of the Colorado School of Mines has enrolled the largest class of its history, records show. Twenty-three states and eight foreign countries are represented in the student body. Indications are that an even greater number of students will enroll for the summer term next year. Denver.—The Moffat railroad is open again from end to end. The cost of opening the tunnel was approximately $100,000, it was estimated Friday. Between 100 and 150 men have been working on it constantly. The D. P. Baur Confectionery Company Established 1872 Caterers and Confectioners 1512 CURTIS ST. DENVER, COLO.

A Connecticut woman played an April fool trick on her husband by telling him she was going to sue for divorce, when she had no intention of doing it. Some women don't know the difference between a joke and a disappointment. TUB FROCKS AND OTHERS; THE streets of the cities bear evidence that women have decided to wear clothes that look comfortable and are comfortable in the hottest days of summer. All those cool and colorful fabrics that are a joy in the country, and at summer resorts, have come to town and are making themselves very much at home on the streets and everywhere else. Crepe de chine, that seems to catch and multiply every little breeze, other crepes, printed silks THE FASHION OF THE TWENTIETH CENTURY I THE FASHION OF THE TWENTIETH CENTURY Utility Dresses for Late Summer. and chiffons and the sheer cottons, make a kaleidoscope of color in the shopping districts and tea rooms, set off by transparent black, pale gray, belge and a generous proportion of white touched with color. In dresses of silk, for all-day wear, crepes are by far the most popular of materials. These utility dresses are simply designed. White skirts with colored topcoats or tuxedo sweaters, or the reverse order, colored skirts with white coats or sweaters, prove themselves a boon for the street, and the combination of black and white is as well considered as ever for warm summer days. The afternoon finds promenaders in more elaborately made brocks which just now are gracefully A L J Crocheted Hats Now the Thing. draped affairs, ankle length and often of printed materials in lovely colors. In cotton materials, tub frocks for the street indicate that combinations of the stronger colors and white, made up with white organdie, have come to stay. Dotted swiss in the darker blues, brown, black or beige, with white dots, has few rivals in its refreshing crispness and coolness, and two pretty frocks made of it are shown above. Next in popularity stand checked and crossbar ginghams, with a few quiet plaids in their company, also honoring the daintiness of organdie in their trimmings and accessories. A new arrival among these cool cotton frocks is made of white batiste with trimming of gay cretonne and the combination is cheerful and promising. Usually the last of August finds these mid-summer frocks making their --- --- exit, but it is only "good-by till we meet again." "There is nothing new under the sun," but there are plenty of things that are relatively new and among them are those smart crocheted hats that are making their appearance in displays of headwear for sports and outdooring. One wonders that they were not thought out long ago, since caps for infants and children have been crocheted for years. But it remained for some one to figure out a way to support the crocheted hat and keep it in shape, and now this has been accomplished, and it is here. It is a beautiful and distinctly American creation, and aristocratic affair, with all the class and informality combined, that belong to the aristocrat. These hats are made of several materials and supported by very fine, invisible silk wires. Wool yarns, chenille, silk fiber braids and specially made fabrics, are used for them and very often their decoration is crocheted in the body of the hat, or separately and sewed on. In the simple models pictured of wool yarns, the braided collars, balls and pompons are made separately. On two of these hats French J knots of heavy yarn decorate the crowns. Very beautiful flowers and fruits crocheted or made in other ways of yarn, chenille, heavy silk floss, or hand-made and hand-colored blossoms and fruits of velvet or silk, appear on the dressier crocheted hats of chenille and silk. All colors are 'unusually rich in these materials. The crocheted hat is not an inexpensive item since it is made by hand and eats up time and fine stuffs. These hats in white yarn, chenille or silk fiber, and in white with a color, as white and emerald green, white and red, make lovely additions to late summer millinery.
