Brossard, widow, resides in a rented house and her Jandlord moved to have the lease canceled-on the ground that the woman used the house more as a menagerie than as a place of uuman habitation. It was set forth that about a hun- dred cats were kept by this lonely widow, and the plea was that they not only injured the premises but were a nuisance in the neighborhood. The woman conducted her own de- fense. She argued that she was a poor, lope widow and therefore should be allowed to have as many cats as she thought necessary to solace her declining years. Judgment was rend- ered by Judge Taschereau, who or- dered the woman to vacate the house and to pay all the rent due as well as the costs of the case.—Toronto Globe. Monkeys Cough to Get Wine. An epidemic of colds among the monkeys kept by the Pasteur insti- tute in Paris, France, for experiments has a remarkable cause. “Virginie,” a chimpanzee, having a bad cough, was given a glass of negus, made of wine, water, sugar, nutmeg and lemon juice. She took a liking to this rem- edy and coughed purposely to obtain it. All her companions followed the example, and when tne keeper appears near the cage the coughing is deaf- ening The Star in the West, The world has lost its old content; The girded Joins and nervous hands The age leads on; her sharp commands Ring over plains and table lands Of this wide watered continent.

He languishes in the county jail with a charge of murder against him. J. D. Lott, a teacher from St. Louis arrived last week and will make his home with his nephew, Rev. W. T. Thornton.

The contracting parties are well known in this city. Mr. McClain has lived here about a year and he has proven to be an enterprising and progressive citizen and is popular with a wide circle of friends. Mrs. McClain is held in high esteem by all at her home and will be missed from among them. The announcement of a call meeting last Friday night at the A. M. E.

If books were rightly treated when they were newly bound there would be less likelihood of their backs being broken afterward by rough handling. The covers should be opened one at a time, and laid as far back as the table upon which the book is resting; then gradually all the leaves, a few at the back and a few at the front of the book, should be laid upon the covers. The book will then be in condition for ordinary wear and the covers will not break away if not abused. When called suddenly away from a book which you are reading do not lay it face down on a table nor throw a handkerchief between its leaves, but have a book marker handy and place it between the leaves, closing the book. Voted With Colored Servants. Rev. Dr. Alexander Mackay Smith, Episcopalian bishop coadjutor of Pennsylvania, went out early in Philadelphia and voted. He went over to the polling place in company with three negroes and left again in their company. None had on his hat, not even the bishop. The bishop is a Republican and a Roosevelt man. His three negro servants are also. The bishop suggested that they all go over together and the blacks seemed pleased. The polling place was in a little cigar store and the advent of Dr. Smith with three blacks and no hat surprised the judges for a moment. The blacks voted first and the bishop brought up the end of the line. A Mild Question That Soothed. In one of the parlor cars of a train wending its way to this city a man who looked the typical "sport" was making himself obnoxious and all the other passengers uncomfortable by the continuity and senselessness of his "kicks." He had the porter in every few minutes to complain about something. That was bad enough, but at length he grew profane. It seemed as if any attempt to check the flow of his evil language must lead to a fight. A benevolent-looking old man who sat next to him proved, however, that a mild question as well as a mild answer will turn away wrath. Just after the "sport" had induged himself in another violent outburst of profanity the old man bestowed upon him a gentle glance through his gold-rimmed spectacles, and with the utmost gravity drawled out the innocent inquiry: "Say, my brother, where do you preach to-morrow." A roar of laughter went up from the car, the "sport" himself had to grin, and the rest of the journey to the city was made in peace and quiet. Miss M. COWDEN. Hair Dressing PARLORS.

WITH MARKED CARDS SWINDLERS MADE IMMENSE SUMS IN HAVANA. One of the Most Elaborate and Expensive Schemes Ever Carried Out Successfully Was That of Spaniard Named Blanco. The amount of money and labor which "high-class" swindlers will expend in bringing their plans into operation is remarkable. The ordinary burglar will consider $25 a large sum to spend on a job. Not so the artist in crime. He spends thousands. He risks much because he plays for high stakes. One of the most remarkable swindles was that instituted by a Spaniard named Blanco. No novelist has ever penned a tale so romantic as the account of this sharper's roguery in the cast of the great Havana card swindle. Blanco commenced operations by buying an immense number of packs of cards. He opened every pack, carefully marked each card and skillfully fastened the packets so that it was impossible to detect that the pack had been opened. These operations were tedious, and a couple of years were occupied by them. Then Blanco shipped his vast stock of marked cards to Havana, where they were sold at such low prices that the island dealers would stock no others. By the time Blanco himself had reached Havana his cards were distributed all over the place. He joined the best clubs and with the aid of the money he possessed and his cards soon became rich. All was going well until a Frenchman named Laforcade informed him that he was a sharper. Laforcade was also a rogue, a lower kind of rogue than the Sapniard. He had obtained possession of several packs of cards from one of the principal clubs. His intention was to mark the cards and then replace them in the club stores. To his astonishment he discovered that somebody had marked the cards already. He obtained several other packs and found that they were marked also. He went to the dealers and bought packs; every card was marked. Thus he discovered the great fraud. He soon tracked the man who always won and compelled him to share his gains. Blanco had to do the sharping while Laforcade spent the money. When Blanco came to the conclusion that the original stock of his cards was becoming exhausted he laid his hands on every penny he could find and bolted, leaving the Frenchman in the lurch. Laforcade being left without funds was compelled to abandon his idle ways. He cheated at cards, bungled and was detected. When brought before the tribunal the whole of the remarkable facts of the gigantic swindle came to light. To Hold Indian Award.

HE REVISED THE LIST. ```markdown ``` The question of why the eastern colleges refuse to play football with Michigan and some other large western institutions was effectually settled the other night by Max Hardman, a westerner in attendance at the Columbia Law school, who was dining with a number of Columbia men. If I Had Made Man "You eastern chaps are like a little Irish tailor of whom I once heard. He was the proud possessor of an enormous nerve, and the only thing that kept him from being annihilated was that at crucial moments his discretion mastered his valor. Reply to the original poem, "If I Had Made Woman," delivered at Douglass Banquet by Lawyer J. M. Tildon. "One morning Mrs. Murphy, a customer, entered the shop, and finding him busily engaged with pencil and paper asked him what he was doing. I'd have made him real handsome, good natured and wise, You'd think that an angel had come from the skies; With coin in each pocket and he wouldn't mind it, If while he were sleeping his wifey should find it, He'd tell her, "yes, dearest, go buy a new hat, I filled up those pockets on purpose for that." "Oi'm makin' a lisht av the min on this block who Oi kin lick,' said he pompously. "Hev yez got Murphy's name down?' asked she. "Murphy heads me list,' was the reply. Mrs. Murphy hurried home to her lord and master with the news, and he came down to the shop with fire in his eye. In color a beautiful brown, I should bake him, Not too dark or too light, but just right, I should make him With teeth like the marble of far famed Carrara, And eyes that the eagle in envey might borrow; And while I am writing I think I will state, "I would make him both honored, and trusted and great." "Me woman tells me that ye're afther makin' a memorial tablet ov the min that yes kin lick, and that ye've got me down at the head of it. Is that true?' said the irate Murphy. "Shure an' it's true. Phwat of it?' returned the other. I'd have ironed out his hair until it was straight, To save him such trouble the mornings he's late. For the time he consumes with those troublesome locks, The pomades and ox marrow he buys by the box; To say nothing of trouble the money thus spent, Would add a few dollars to pay off the rent. "‘You good for nothing little grass hopper, I could commit suicide on yez wid me little finger. I could wipe up de flure wid yez wid me hands tied!’ “‘Are ye shure about that?' asked the tailor. “‘Shure I'm sure about it.’ In mind, I should make him kindly and human, Altruist apostle, accord all rights to woman, Allow them to talk, nor offer objections; But sit still and listen in silent reflection, Nor think that his voice is the grandest of all, And must be heard through the length and breadth of the hall, "Well then,' sighed the knight of the shears regretfully, 'I'll scratch ye aff de lisht.'"—New York Times. To Study Criminal The American Bar Association has passed a resolution in favor of establishing in the Department of Justice, Washington, a laboratory for the study of the criminal, pauper and defective classes. In the Bureau of Education, Washington, Mr. MacDonald has for several years been carrying on work of this kind under many difficulties, and it is mainly owing to his initiative that the foregoing resolution was framed. And I wish it could be that I could reshape him, For then don't you see, I'd restore him his rib, which he claims we are using, And in searching for which, valued time he is losing, Trying all those whom he can to convince, He's been running after that rib ever since. No more would his nights at the club-house be spent, Come home late, in his pockets, not even a cent; Tell wifey, "he had to come home in a cab, He'd sat up with a sick man", his name it was "Jag", And minus his hat, and wonder to tell her, He'd unlocked the front door with the key of the cellar." JOHN B. BROWN The men we have here, I suppose they will do, They'll pay for our dresses, our cloaks and our shoes; We'll honor and love them in sickness and health, And help them increase in goodness and wealth; So we'll try awhile longer to keep the straight way, For who knows, but this Paragon might have feet of clay And now, who can doubt, this perfect creation I've written Of what use would he be, but to place on a shelf, [about,] In some musty museum all to himself, Encompassed in glass and with this inscription; "He tried to be good, and thus his condition."

One time the sea was wide—so wide That men declared No one could find its further side, Yet one man dared; One man who dreamed of things to do. One man who fought his doubting crew And ventured till his dreams came true. Then others fared His way, till all the sea might hide Their work had bared. One time the plains were dull and still And all untrod. And men gazed at each distant hill With doubting nod— But one man braved the lonely miles. Blazed, pathways through the forest aisles; Men went his way in eager files; With chain and rod They marked the place for mart and milk Upon the sod. The man who is content to rest Secure from harms. In fear of toil's tremendous test Or war's alarms. Who hugs, untempted, his safe hearth. Gives little proof of strength or worth. His pride is strangled in its birth And sluggard charms Have barred the tale of noble quest From off his arms. —W. D. N. in Chicago Tribune. Japanese Are Apt Scholars.

President Roosevelt Accepts Chal- lenge of the South and Names a Negro Collector in N. Y. Charles W. Anderson, the most prominent Negro Republican in New York State, is to be appointed by President Roosevelt to succeed Chas, H. Treat as Collector of Internal Kev- enue at New York at a salary of $4,500 a year. The appointment is to be a person- al one of the President’s, and was op- posed by the New York County Re- publican organization to the extent that the organization favored Mr. Treat for ,re-appointment. When they left here Friday night for Wash- ington they still were determined in their fight for Mr. Treat, though real- izing that the President would un- doubtedly have his way. Evidently the matter was settled before the New York delegation reached Washington, for it was stated in Washington Friday night that Mr. Treat is to be promoted to the posi- tion of Treasurer of the United States to succeed Ellis H, Roberts, and not to be put out to make way for Chas. W. Anderson. Chairman Odell and Senators De- pew and Platt have consented to the appointment of Anderson. They were not originally favorable to the ap- pointment, but all of them like An- derson, and when the President in- formed them that he wished to ap- point the well known Negro politician all of them acquiesced. Chairman Odell was informed of the matter be- fore he left for Europe and made no objection to the plan. Anderson has heen one of his most valuable lieuten- ants, and his selection by the Presi- dent was in no respect distasteful to the State Chairman. The appointment of Anderson is recognized as being made for the pur- pose of off-setting the appointment of William D. Crum, a Negro, as Collec- tor of the Port of Charleston. It has been frequently asserted by Southern critics of the President in discussing this appointment that the President THE STATESMAN, DENVER, COLORADO. rae ar Sas: ee \ Ee et rere es a\( fe IPE ae) > EEA * (eae : sare o i Pai ES See se Fiat! se 3 iS eel el] era | aS | & hl * ie e Wee a * + ge tae oe - ss _ ee ares - ere y OD) Bee | tg Gee = | a, Fe a | m pk ‘ a ; q ice é Z igen 3 i | | Hi ; me 4S = it r T ey ‘ | IU THEODORE ROOSEVELT) | would not appoint a Negro to such a position in the North. The action of the President in selecting Anderson fora corresponding position to that of Crum, in this city, is recognized as be- ing intended to meet this criticism. As Coilzetor of Interna!

He sits in this body as the representative of the Negroes of the State, though representing no district. Heisa great political orator and made many speeches during the last campaign. He is the head of a Negro Republican club located in West 63d street, near Eighth avenue, which is the most interesting club of the kind in thecity. It has for members all the prominent Negro politicians, act- ors, singers, composers and financiers of the city. Its “club evenings,” when musical compositions are fur- pished by all the prominent Negro stars of the city, are among the best in New York. In the membership | list are the two noted teams, Williams and Walker and Cole and Johnson, and a score of others who are among the best known Negroes on the New York stage. Ouiginal compositions are given ut these affairs. and last fall one of the most popular campaign baie of the year made its appearance there, being the work of a club mem- ber, one of the Johnsons. At these affairs Anderson always presides. He has a splendid voice, and takes a lead- ing part in the singing--New York World. | Cat Rang for Admission. | Ira S, Hatch of Hartland, Me., was }aroused from his slumbers about 11 | o'clock the night of a big storm by jthe furious ringing of the doorbell. | Lighting a lamp the host went down \to his midnight guest, which proved to be no other personage than hig wonderful coon cat, Nigger. es BOUGHT SKIN OF PIRATE. Fifteen Dollars Paid for Gruesome Relic of Barbarous Times. Fifteen dollars was the price a col- lector of curiosities paid for a piece of a Danish pirate’s skin about the size of a half dollar. It was sold at auction in London. At the same sale a lock of hair (guaranteed genuine) from Edward IV.’s head did not find a purchaser. The yal hair was taken from the King’s tomb at Windsor when it was opened in 1789, The Viking pirate, whose skin was sold, was captured and executed while pillaging Hadstock’s church, in Essex, over nine hundred years ago, and his skin was nailed to the church door as a warning to other eviidoers. The relic, which looks like a jagged piece of thick parchment, became lodged in the hings of the massive old door, where it was discovered fn 1855. The remainder of mediaeval bar barity was an object of awe-struck in- terest to the buyers at the sale. Colossal Idol. Two miles from Kamakura, and ubout twenty from Yokohama, in Ja- pan, on a terrace near the temple sits the most gigantic {dol in the world, It is the brazen Image of a diety, and it dates from the reign of the Emperor Shomu, who died A, D, 784. The di- mensions of this idol are colossal. His height, from the base of the lotus-flower upon which he sits to the top Of his head, is 63% feet. The face is 16 feet In length and 9% feet wide, the eyes are 3 feet 9 inches from corner to corner, the eyebrows 5% feet and the ears 814 feet.

Westerner Said to Make Much Money by Shrewd Trick. “The wooden nutmeg af Connect! cut was the first imitation food,” nald & grocer, “and then came the mean Bostonian who dried snow and sold it for salt. This year we huve an imi- tation new potato. “A Westerner put the imitation rew potato on the market, and they say he has made about 80 per cent profit out of it. I am speaking seriously now, mind. Of course it was in a joking way that I alluded to the nutmeg and the salt. “The Westerner, to accomplish his deception? plants on toward the end of the summer a crop of late potatoes of a kind that keep well. ‘These ripen and are dug up just before the first frost. They are sorted, and all the bad ones are thrown out, Then the rest are buried in a field. “The crop lies buried, preserved from all harm under the soll, till early spring. About two months before the first genuine potatoes have ap- peared it is dug up. “A great bath of a solution of lye is prepared and in this bath the potatoes are dipped. When they emerge from thelr plunge their skins are pink and curly, and their flesh is hard and firm. In a word, they are to all appearances new potatoes, and they woald deceive anyone. “There are many tmitation foods,” the grocer ended. “We have imita- tion butter, imitation syrup, imitation fellies and jams, imitation coffee, {mi- tation honey and imitation maple sugar. Not one of these frauds, though is as herd to detect as the imitation new potato.” CHANGES IN SEA LEVEL, creased in Depth. Changes in the level of the sea are weil shown in the case of the Meditere ranean. M. Ph. Nedgris, im a recent brechure presented to the Academy of Science, furnishes interesting infor mation on this point, it being appar ent that the sea has greatly increased In depth as compared to ancient times, Formerly a bridge 3,000 feet long unit- ed Leucate to the continent. To-day it is submerged, but the foundations of the work were discovered eleven feet beneath the surface. It may therefore be concluded that since the construction of the bridge the sea has risen at this point over nine feet. In the bay of Amphissa, Greece, there has been observed a mole that fs also over nine feet beneath the sur- face. At Rhenee there has been found a completely submerged dock, evidently of Roman construction, the deptn of the sea above the dock at places being tully nine feet. From all of these facts one may con- clude that there has taken place an important Increase In the depth of the sea since the Roman period, the Medi- terranean having risen at least nine feet In about 2,000 years. ca 4.2 s ware Return to Mule Teams.

DEMANDS MADE BY COOKS, One Asked for a Private Elevator, Another for Church Escort. “Speaking of the unreasonableness of cooks,” said a woman from Chica- g0, who has come to New York to study social problems, “I heard of two rather startling instances just before I started east. “There was a cook in one of the big houses on Lake Shore Drive who has @ most exaggerated idea of her own importance, The house is a large one and the servants are well quartered on the fourth story. To save them climbing stairs an extra elevator was put in for their use, “It was not long wmtil the ¢osx ‘came to her mistress with this surpris- ing complaint. ““The servants’ elevator is too crowded, ma'am, and I have to wait for the waitresses. You'll have to get me an elevator of my own, or I'll go to a new place.’ “Another Chicago woman keeps up a large countr establishment some distance from t city. Her cook was a jewel as a cc k, but very unpopu- lar with the other servants. The coachmen or gardners would not take her about as they did the younger and prettier maids. Her vanity was hurt, but she thought she saw a way out. “I'm going to leave,’ she declared to her mistress one Sunday, ‘unless you order some of the men to take me to church every Sunday. I've not been accustomed to going to church alone, and I'm not going to do it.’ “The woman told the maid that she could not interfere in a personal mat- ter of that kind, and that if she could not win the attentions of the men ser- vants she would have to go to church alone or return to Chicago. The cook @ied again, and, failing, gave up her place."—New York Tribune. SAYS THE BACHELO Every living organism corresponds with its environment. When it ceases to correspond it is a dead one. The most salient feature in the en- vironment of every one of us is the way we get our living. Individuals may vary within tne type, but no two mechanics will vary &s much as a mechanic and a doctor, for instance, Heredity, home influence, early training—all put together have not so much to do with making us as the way we get our living. If we do not get our living at all, but inherit it or have an income giver us by some one else, that makes § very distinct type of man. Each em ployment stamps anether type. The fact that the vast majority of men receive rewards proportioned to their efforts and abilities, and that the vast majority of women do not, is the fundamental cause of the Intellectual, moral and temperamental differences in the sexes.

Borrowed trouble perpetuates itself. Married women don't believe in heroes. Don't depend on luck to push you up hill. Pisappointed genius may be known by its haircut. Many a fat pocketbook {is filled with unreceipted bills. There's one thing I like about eggs. They never get too fresh. It is no disgrace to be poor; neith- er is it a crime to be rich, Success, when it comes, comes sud- denly, like a one-card draw. Pride goeth before a fall, and after that there isn’t much left of it. Never tell a girl she’s a bird. She might want you to fly with her. The man who marries for mone; deserves all that’s coming to him. Fools and children tell the truth, but the tombstone is in a class all by itself. Hero worship is the admiration we feel for people until we get to know them better. It is often a good plan to look be fore you leap, and then stay right where you are. The old maid always wonders why married women can't manage their husbands better. Perhaps truth is stranger than fic tion because we are not so well ac: quainted with it. A woman is seldom as pretty as she thinks she fs, nor as homely as other women think her. We are told that it taxes two to make a quarrel; also that a man and his wife are one, It is hard to recon- cile these statements—New York Times. George Not Willing to Give All Credit to Providence. Before Frederick B. Smith, the sec- retary of the international committee of the Young Men's Christian associa- tion, set out on his evangelistic ‘tour of the world, he was entertained at dinner by a number of his admirers. At the end of the dinner Mr. Smith made an address, choosing for his subject, “Modesty.” Among other things he said: “Some men are vain and conceited beyond belief. I know a man who went walking with his wife once on the bank of a stream, He was a care- less, awkward, loose-jointed man, and suddenly, his foot slipping, he fell overboard, “Though the water was deep and cold, the man got out after a few min- utes’ struggling and grunting, and his wife, as she hurried him homeward, said: “George, you ought to be thankful to Providence that your life was saved. “Yes, yes,’ George answered, ‘Proy- idence, of course, was very kind, but I was very clever, too.’" JOTTINGS, Mistletoe is only one of the fifi» two varieties of excuses for kissing. Do you ever stop to think that you often say “They say” as if it reallv meant “I know?” The difference between amateur and professional actors is that the ama- teurs do not get so many chances to teil of their -histrionic successes.

World’s Production of Pins. By a computation made ten years ago, it was shown that at that time the weekly production of pins in Great Britain was 280,000,000. Then 120,000,000 were made in France, and 120,000,000 in Germany, Holland and Belgium. Since that time the pro- duction of pins has increased largely The higgest pin manufacturing city in the world is Birmingham, where 37,- 000,000 pins, on the average, are man- ufactured every working day. The other pin factories in Great Britain to- gether turn out about 19,000,000 pins daily. Liberal Gift to Churck. The fashionable congregation of Trinity church, Philadelphia, was sur- prised on reaching the pews on a re- cent Sunday to find thai they had all been reupholstered. There was a new and exceedingly rich carpet on the floor and altogether the church showed that it had been thoroughly overhauled since the Sunday before by some one with good taste and a rather long pocketbook. After services it came out that Miss Rebecca Dar- lington, worth $20,000,000, who was married to Mr. Stoddard, of New Ha- yen, Conn., the previous Wednesday, did not like the dingy furnishings of old Trinity, and so had the church reupholstered and recarpeted before her wedding eve.

He was a caller in company with Dr. Faulkner. Rocky Mountain Lodge, No. 2320 G. U. O. of O. F. celebrated its 23rd anniversary Thursday night with a fraternal reception.

Contee was chairman of the committee in charge. Astrologers Were Wrong. According to the astrologers, the world was to have come to an end on Sept. 16, 1186. They had observed with awe that at sunrise on that day there would be a conjunction of all the planets in Libra and no doubt the argument was that such a collection would be altogether too much for the balance of the universe. When it arrived; Sept. 16 proved to be a very ordinary twelfth-century day. In 1524 astrology plucked up courage to try again. This time there was to be a universal deluge, on the strength of the meeting of three planets in the sign of Pisces, and a private Noah's ark was actually built for the occasion by a devout believer at Toulouse. The year 1524 proved to be a period of drought. Mr. and Mrs D. W. Lacy Proprietors. MECCA CAFE and CHILLI PARLOR. For ladies and gentlemen. Meals served at all hours.

ENGRAVING FOR ALL PURPOSES THE APP SUTHERLAND CO. ENGRAVERS OF THE WEST 1814 CURTIS STREET DENVER --- SOLDIER'S WIDOW IN WANT. Pathetic Appeal for Help Made to Russian Government. In the face of some of the stories which are coming from St. Petersburg, it is probable that if the czar should issue a pension order it would not be met with a fault-finding volley. A dispatch says that when a Russian officer is killed all payments to his family are stopped. The widow of a lieutenant colonel slain at Lloayang has been obliged to make an appeal for bread for herself and seven children. The country that doesn't look after the widows and orphans of its dead heroes holds patriotism cheap. No country gives support to the dependent ones commensurate with the service rendered by the soldier who dies in battle, but few countries are so lost to gratitude that they allow the orphan's cry for bread to pass unheeded. It has been hinted that there is a lack of heart on the part of the czar's men in the present conflict. It is more than possible that one reason for the half-heartedness in the fight may be found in this widow's appeal.—Chicago Post. "Knockout Drops" in a Ring. "A knockout ring," said the detective. "Look at it well. It belonged to Jimmy the Kid. He was notorious." The ring was of gold, and it contained a huge dark blue stone. "Now, watch the stone," continued the detective, and he pressed with his thumb a spring, smaller than a pinhead, on the gold loop, opposite the setting. Instantly the middle of the stone slipped back like a sliding door, and out of the opening three or four drops of fluid fell. When the detective ceased to press the spring the stone closed up again. "See how it works?" he said. "I sit with you, and there are two glasses of booze before us. Talking away, I draw the hand with the ring on it across your glass, and with my thumb I press the spring. Then into your glass there falls enough chloral to put you out of business."—New York Press. Uninteresting People. They live in a quiet sort of a way In a quiet sort of street; They don't meet a great many people, nor Impress the people they meet. The newspapers never mention their names. The world doesn't care what they do. They never go in for anything much. And their intimate friends are few. He never has had a favorite club. Though somebody said he might. For a flat little nose on the window pane Awaits him every night; And eight little fingers and two little thumbs Undo all the work of the comb. As he sits in the quietest sort of a way In his quietest sort of a home. She doesn't belong to a woman's club. She hasn't a single fad. She plays with the "kids" and works all day. And most of the time she sings. He isn't like most other husbands at all. She isn't like most other wives. And they never attempt to make a change In the course of their quiet lives; But once in a while they dress the "kids," And go to spend the day. In a nice quiet country spot. In a nice little quiet way. —Maurice Brown Kirly in Collier's Weekly. Canada's New Governor. An American boy who was traveling in South Africa in 1896, toward the close of the Matabele troubles, recalls THE STATESMAN, DENVER, COLORADO. nis first sight or Earl Grey, the new governor general of Canada. "His lordship," says the American referred to, "did not look a bit like a belted earl. Though administrator of Rhodesia at the time, he was in his shirt sleevs, with a pair of obviously readymade trousers and a disreputable slouch hat. He and a couple of friends were having a drink at the bar of the Buluwayo club." Lord Grey, by the way, was born in a royal residence. His father was private secretary to Queen Victoria, and Lady Grey was stopping in St. James' palace at the time. Fifteen Thousand Violin Makers The only place in the world where violin-making may be said to constitute the staple industry is Markneukirchen, in Saxony, with its numerous surrounding villages. There are altogether about 15,000 people in this district engaged exclusively in the manufacture of violins. The inhabitants, from the small boy and girl to the wrinkled, grey-headed veteran and the aged grandmother, are employed throughout the year in making some part or other of this instrument. Cure for Sea Sickness. The British Medical Journal says: Koepke believes that the different symptoms of sea sickness are due to anemia of the brain, and that validol acts upon this condition by raising the blood pressure. It also influences the gastric disturbances by lowering the sensibility of the nerve endings in the gastric mucous membrane, and is, indeed, both a good stomachic and a good analeptic. One Man's Meat Another's Poison. In the rivers of some of the West Indian islands there abound fish which it would be deadly poison for Europeans to eat, but which the natives find a nourishing and enjoyable diet. In parts of New Zealand there grows a sort of orange which no one but a native can eat without becoming ill, while a couple would probably poison the average European. ```markdown ``` How Flowers Attract Bees. It has long been a mooted question whether insects are attracted to flowers by the bright hues of the petals or by the odor of the flowers, and recent experiments carried out on quite an extensive scale seem to indicate that the perfume is the essential directive agent. It is concluded that insects are guided from a distance to masses of flowers by their perfume alone, but that where flowers are grown singly, insects are attracted generally by color, and where the distance is small the odor doubtless assists in attracting and directing the movements of the flying insects.

There is gradually dawning a belief that plant growth is more or less of a chemical process that may be accelerated or retarded by the application of the proper reagents, generally in the form of fertilizers, and that the ultimate growth is usually far in excess of the value of the material applied. This is apropos of some investigations that have been conducted by M. Nagaoka, of the Tokio Imperial university, in stimulating rice growth by the stimulating action of manganese in the form of manganese sulphate. A yield of 37 per cent over a field fertilized in the usual manner was obtained by this investigator and the value of the increased crop was equal to four times the cost of the chemical applied. African Jumping Hare. One of the rarest and most interesting of the wild animals in South Africa is the springhaas, or jumping hare. It lives in small communities on the open veldt, both in the plains and in the mountain ranges, and makes large and deep burrows in the ground, whence it emerges toward sunset, being rarely seen in the bright daylight. When chased in the open it proceeds in great bounds like a jerboa or kangaroo, for which its highly developed hind legs are admirably adapted, and is even said to move faster up hill than down. Its food consists of roots and green stuff. Its flesh is good to eat and is much appreciated by the Hottentots and Kaffirs. Kind of Music Government Had. A certain congressman who takes an interest in musical matters lately presented a bill advocating a larger appropriation for the care of the music in the Congressional Library. He spoke briefly on the subject and after the session a fellow Congressman approached him confidentially. "I say," he said in a low voice, "I like that blil of yours; but tell me what sort of music does the government have over there in the library—is it a band or just a hand organ?—Harper's Weekly. QUEER FISH OF TIE NORTH. Narwhal One of the Strangest of Sea Animals. One of the strangest of sea animals is the narwhal, conjectured by some to be the original of the fabled unicorn. The great peculiarity of this graceful cetacean lies in its long tusk, a polished ivory shaft, straight as an arrow and sharp as a lance, which protrudes from its head to a great distance. This formidable and glittering appendage gives to the animal a striking and spectacular appearance. The narwhals appear off the coast of Greenland in schools, making excursions into the various bays and flords in search of food. A band of a hundred or more form a picturesque sight when plowing through the water in military-like procession, the long, glittering horns all rising in unison as they come up to the surface to blow. Their advent is hailed with delight by the Eskimos, as they are said to be the forerunners of the early approach of the right whale, which uses the same kind of food as the narwhal. Greenlanders hunt the narwhal actively, as they are very fond of its flesh, and the ivory of its horn is useful for many purposes. The nutritious skin forms the most delicious sort of chewing gum for both men and women and is regarded as a choice luxury. The body is covered to a depth of three or four inches with a layer of fine blubber, weighing half a ton and yielding a large amount of the best grade of oil. One of the most highly prized trophies which Lieut. Peary brought back from his last journey to Greenland was the ivory tusk of a narwhal. This is the record-breaking specimen of the world, measuring eight feet in length and eight inches in circumference at its thickest part. A realization of its height is gained when it is placed alongside a man, the extreme point of the tusk overtopping his head two feet. Leonaroo's Writing. This is a specimen of the writing of Leonardo da Vinci, famous as poet and sculptor, and the greatest universal genius the world has known. Fine Specimen of Indian Pottery. A valuable addition to the museum of the University of Vermont has recently been made in the form of an excellent specimen of Indian pottery. The vessel, one of the best and largest ever unearthed in New England, was found in a cave near Bolton Falls. It is 10 inches high and has a six-sided, highly-decorated rim nine inches in diameter. Pennsylvania's Largest Tree. In Yeadon township, Delaware county, Pa., is what is said to be the largest tree in the state. The circumference of the trunk is 33 feet, and the spread of its branches 115 feet.

Let's give thauks for the end of the gubernatorial contest. This week we received a business letter from Nebraska, that was written on stationery used by the Republican State Central Committee in the last campaign. By it we discover that L. L. Lindsey of Lincoln, custodian of the federal building there was a member of the executive committee, and that W. P. Kemp also of Lincoln was in charge of the campaign literature. The government census gives Nebraska a Negro population of 6,269 out of 1,066,300. It gives Colorado a population of 8,570 Negroes out of 539,700. To those Negroes who even yet delight in misrepresenting this newspaper's aims in politics, we especially commend these facts. We do not need to go east or south, where we are in great numbers to show self-respecting and respected Negroes in politics. By dint of agitation and personal sacrifice, we have in a degree awakened a livelier sense of the race's deserts in many of us, and to the full accomplishment of this we are committed. Of apologists for present conditions, we ask, why should not a Negro be a member of the State Central Committee? Why should not a colored lawyer be one of the assistants in the District Attorney's office? Why should black laws disgrace the statutes? Why should we cast our votes --- STOP KNOCKING THE STATESMAN, DENVER, COLORADO RMS. $1.00 Three months. 50 Colorado, as second class mail matter. 2207. your news. printing orders. always for white candidates and never for one of our own? Because the STATESMAN has stood for the fullest enfranchisement of our people and fought for it as best we could, we are called renegade. Let our critics do more for the race, let them push self less, and they will be too busy boosting to waste time knocking. Results, not promises count. We will measure arms with anyone in Colorado as to what we have accomplished for the race.

Peabody, not because of the selection but because after five months of the most lurid political agitation, anybody in the executive chair is preferable to the turmoil. Whether there is any truth in the charges or countercharges, nothing can efface the impression that Colorado is lost to all sense of justice and elections can be manipulated like a Jack in the-box. Two years ago the democrats threw out of the legislature republicans because they had the power and now after making a failure of the contest case, republicans do likewise with the governor. Like lynching, this hellborn doctrine of divine right of government is spreading and political manipulation is no longer a safeguard of white supremacy. What --- TERMS. THE DENVER DRY GOODS CO.

The governorship has been stolen either for Adams at the polls or for Peabody in the legislature. It remains for the last and greatest tribunal to pass upon the contest and mete out justice. When the people strip the case of its legal quibbling and call a spade a spade, if honor is not all lost as a result of the ignoble conditions surrounding them, then will Colorado and then only be vindicated.
