Mr. and Mrs. Fletcher had the misfortune of losing the contents of their home by fire early Sunday morning. The fire started in a lumber yard across the street and soon their house was in flames. The third quarterly meeting at Shaffer Chapel was heldSunday. A fierce snow storm which prevailed during the day prevented many from attending. Wm. Lucas of Philadelphia connected himself with hte church. The Ladies Aid was entertained at the Chapel Monday evening by Mrs. Frisby. After quilting the company was entertained with refreshments. Silver Bow Literary Society of the State Historian & Natural History Society WYOMING, MONTANA, UTAH AND DO, FRIDAY, APRIL 21, 1905 A. M. E. Church, was largely attended on last Monday night. Mrs. Sadie Smith who had charge of the program, deserves special mention for the way she managed the affair, "An Evening With Roosevelt." The church was beautifully decorated with the national colors, and a large photo of the President was seen in the background. The program was as follows America, Company; Invocation, Rev. B. F. McIntyre; Music, Messrs Geo. Butler, Alberts and Mitchell; Solo, Mrs. W. E. Grant; Address, Pastor; Reading, Miss L. Williams; Music, Messrs Butler, Mitchell and Yancey; Solo, Mrs. Percey Winters; Reading, Mrs. Lucas; Literary Journal, Mrs. H E. Fletcher; Solo, "Give Us Teddy," Mr. Geo.

At the meeting of the Wigan board of guardians a lady guardian entered a protest against the board expending the sum of $25 in supplying a woman 76 years of age with false teeth. She said she was not bothering about the price of the teeth, but about the rate-payers having to expend that sum of money in providing false teeth for a woman aged 76. ```markdown ``` NO.36 HORKINS DENOUNCED. At the mass meeting at Zion Church Thursday night, under the auspices of the Sunday Alliance to denounce the infamous assault upon Samuel Simpson last Friday morning, resolutions were passed by the 400 citizens present asking the dismissal of Officer Horkins by the Fire and Police Board. The police system which permits such things also was condemned. It was the sense of the meeting that Simpson should have financial aid in his case if he needed it. The Alliance will have charge of the funds raised to help fight the case and those who wish either to pay in or subscribe should see either W. B. Fields or C. M. Hughes. Poverty and Education. Poverty is a great bar to education, but would not be if both the child and the parent were alive to the real value of an education. If education cannot be acquired in one way it can in another. The trouble is that the judgment of the child is too immature to prove a safe guide, and the parent leaves everything to the child. New and Profitable Occupation. A shorthand writer in Berlin attends the funerals of prominent persons and takes down verbatim the addresses of the officiating clergymen. He prepares highly-ornamented copies of these and sells them to the friends of the eulogized dead. He is doing a profitable trade. Street Cars in London. There is no trouble in London over whether a street car will stop or where it will stop. At certain points along the streets are posts painted white. The cars stop at these posts. They do not run past them or slow down when they reach them—they stop. More Moderate Language Wanted. A man recently began swearing in an Atchison saloon. "Look here," the proprietor said, "you will have to cut out that profanity. Suppose a lady were to come in after a drink; how would your swearing sound?"—Kansas City Star.

The Men's Sunday Forum of Payne Chapel was inaugurated last Sunday afternoon, and it is hoped that it may prove to be one of the most helpful and entertaining organizations of the kind in the State. One Sunday in the month will be Ladies Day, other meetings being devoted to men exclusively. The cantata rendered at Payne Chapel Friday night has been pronounced one of the best productions of its kind ever given in the city. Mrs. Tillman deserves much credit for her untiring efforts to make this entertainment a creditable affair as well as a financial success for the trustees of the church. Eugene P. Booze has issued a call to the citizens of Colorado Springs to meet Tuesday evening at PayneChap el to organize an Afro-American Business League to affiliate with the National Negro Business League of which Booker T.

Hurley at her beautiful home on Stillman St. The dining room presented a very brilliant scene, the color scheme of red, green and white being beautifully carried out. The red candelabra, whose mellow light show ed up the elaborate costumes of the guests, together with the beautiful ferns and white blossoms made the apartment look like a choice flower garden.

Mrs. Grant left Thursday for Denver to spend the Easter with Rev. and Mrs. Dyett. A DAREDEVIL RIDE often ends in a sad accident. To heal accidental injuries, use Bucklen's Arnica Salve.

Soothes and heals burns like magic. 25c at James Hullinger & Co, druggist, HIS MIND IN COURTROOM. Judge's Petition to Heaven Mixed with Legal Phraseology. Friends of Judge Alfred Colt of the Probate court at New London, Conn., have cost him many dinners lately by a joke of which his sixteen-year-old daughter, Gertrude, was the promulgator. The judge, accompanied by his daughter, can be seen bathing every morning. Both are experts, and often swim out far from sight. A few mornings ago they had got about fifty yards from shore when the judge, who by the way is a very religious man, exclaimed in agony: "Daughter, I've got a cramp. Save yourself and swim to shore!" And he lifted his eyes upward as if in prayer. But his daughter dived down back of him and extracted from the giant member of his pedal extremity a large cow crab. Both then swam to shore. That night on the veranda of Judge Coit's home he was relating the experience. "Dad," said his daughter Gertrude affectionately, "do you know what you said in your prayer at that time?" "Certainly," replied the judge. "I quoted 'Thy will be done.' "No,' said his daughter, 'you didn't. You said 'Thy will be filed.'--New York Times. Students Obey Military Instructor. After holding out a long time and trying all kinds of compromises, the seniors of the University of California have yielded to their military instructor, Capt. Nance of the Ninth cavalry and the secretary of war, and have consented to march in and out of the captain's class room in military style.

The Owner Has Refused Offers Ranging from $6,500 to $9,000 for It. Harold B. Silvey of Schuylerville, N. Y., is the owner of an old Dutch Bible which he recently ascertained is of considerable value. A few days ago a New York bibliophile made a generous offer for it, and more recently he has declined offers ranging from $6,500 to $9,000. The last offer was made by a man, also from New York, who came especially to buy the book. As it is a family heirloom, Mr. Silvey says he is in no hurry to sell at present. He also believes that the book may become more valuable, as he says it is one of the only two of its kind ever published. The other is now owned by a wealthy book lover in New York. The book, which was printed in the year 1736 at Anne, is 10 inches by 12 inches, and 16 inches thick. It weighs about fifteen pounds, is mounted with two heavy brass locks used as clasps, and is in a fine state of preservation. Since he ascertained its value Mr. Silvey has placed the book in the safe deposit vaults in the local bank, but is very glad to show it to persons who are interested in old books. Miss M. COWDEN.

Designed to Accommodate Animals of All Kinds. J. McP.—Please publish two plans, one for a poultry, hogs and wood house, and the other for larger stock and feed. I should like the barn to hold 40 or 50 tons of hay, 10 or 12 tons of grain, 8 cows and 3 horses on the ground floor. I want to have about 12 young cattle down in the cellar, and manure in the cellar, too. I intend to build it on a hill, with driveway door on north and door for manure on the south. I would like to have a room for grains. Can you A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z Fig. 1. Ground Floor of Stock and Feed Barn.

I intend to build a building to keep 20 hens for winter, 2 or 3 scores of chickens in spring, and 4 pigs and a room for breeding sow and a room for 5 or 8 cords of wood. Also I would like to have a room in which to boil feed. The size of the barn is 46 x 56 feet, with 18 feet posts with hip roof. It contains four bents—a twenty-two foot bent, where horses and cattle stand; a fourteen foot driveway, and a twenty foot bent, where granary and mow are shown. There is an overlay in front of cattle and horses and to give YOUNG CATTLE FEED ROOM SHEER MANURE Fig. 2, Basement Plan. for feeding and also room to take a team out if there is a load of hay or grain on the barn floor. There is a trap door behind both horse and cow stable to drop the manure through into the manure shed below. The basement contains a room for young cattle to run loose in, a feed room, and sheep pen, also a manure room under cow and horse stable. If the young cattle are to be tied up, the partition between feed room and where the cattle are can be moved back so that there are thirteen feet from the wall to front of manger; this will give plenty of room behind cattle. The sleep pen can then be made wider and shorter and leave room for two box stalls along the north end of the feed alley. Nothing New in This. An English doctor advocates going barefoot as being particularly healthy, and by way of an object lesson sends his children to school in that condition. We are taught in early youth, Man is clay—and 'tis the truth, He makes a million dollars quick, Then people say, "He is a brick." But when he drops it with a thud, His name is clay—or rather, mud. In Lieu of Wages. Boy—What wages will I get, doctor if I come to work for you? Doctor—Wages? You'll get my services free. What more would you have. Boy—But, doctor, I am never ill. Doctor—Oh, but you will be; I'll see to that. ForFine Tailoring GOOD FIT And Workmanship GO TO GO TO B.

Representative John Sharp Wik liams of Blississippi tells of a suit that was brought before a Judge Rob- inson in that state. It was but a short while after the beginning of the pro ceedings that the judge made up his mind concerning the judgment to be rendered, and accordingly he informed the counsel for the prosecution that further argument was unnecessary. Notwithstanding this the attorney continued to argue. Without the least show of impatience the judge politely reiterated his desire that the proceed- ings come to an end. But again his word was unheeded. Finally Judge Robinson called out to the sheriff to come to his desk. “Sheriff,” said he, “have we any cot- ton hereabout?” The sheriff, concealing his surprise at this unjudicial request, replied ae he thought there were several bales not far off. Then, complying with the Instructions of Judge Robin- son, he left the court house, shortly to return with a handful of the sta- ple desired. Of this the judge took two wads, which he stuffed in his ears, and, bending his eyes upon the legal papers beside him, calmly remarked to the offending counsel: “Now, Mr. Jenkins, vou may pro ceed,” rE | ce fae naa DODS(O | oD bis ° aia a : 2 | IN OUR GREAT OF LADIES’ AND MISSES’ We offer a 1000 Tailored Suits at such discounts as this: $22.50 Suits Choice of 100 Suits, made of Broadcloths, for Cheviots and Nun’s Fancy Worsteds, several Rue new mode] jacket styles, all colors, Every one $ | 9,43 a special rile é $15.00 Suits Choice of 75 Suits in Cheviots and Fancy for Scotch Mixtures, new nobby blouse and jacket 70 styles, all sizes, all colors.

Grafter Ready with Offer of Aid to 'Busted" Sport. Hard luck had persistently followed him. The little ivory ball would not drop on the right number; if he bet on black, red was sure to turn up, and vice versa. He sauntered over to the faro table and invested his remaining $5 only to see it go the way of his other bills. When he left the gambling place at midnight, he had just two nickels in his possession. On his way to the trolley car, at Third avenue and Forty-second street, he passed the Grand Central station. Just outside the main entrance stood a well-dressed young man, who accosted the "busted" sport with: "Say, friend, I'm up against it. Been down here seeing the sights and went broke. I need ten cents more to pay my fare back to Nyack. Can you stake me?" With a pitying smile, the sport drew forth his two remaining nickels. "That's all I have," he said. "I've been up against it, too. If I give you this ten cents, I'll have to foot it home." The well-dressed man chuckled. "Is this on the level?" he asked. "Surest thing you know," replied the sport. "Well, say, I'll lend you a half if you want it. The graft has been good tonight," and the well-dressed young man hauled out a handful of coins, selected two quarters from the assortment, and proffered them to the sport. New York Press. IN PRAISE OF ABSTINENCE. Woman's Witty Remark Deserved to Have Made a Convert. "The most brilliant woman in Rome," said a cosmopolitan, "is the Marquise de Monstiers-Merinville. She is the daughter of the late W. S. Caldwell of Kentucky. "The Marquise de Monstiers-Merinville, besides being brilliant, is of a religious, spiritual turn of mind. She hates all manner of excess, and especially she hates excess in drinking. "A young English baronet attempted at dinner one evening to quiz Mme. de Monstlers-Merinville a little on her rigid and Puritanical ideas. Lifting up a glass of crisp champagne, he said: "'What harm madam, can ensue from a drink so beautiful and clean?" "'Much harm,' replied the marquise gravely. "'Ah, no,' sald the Englishman. 'Wine is good. It is a tonic. It makes blood. It makes you fat.' "I have seen it make you lean," said the marquise, and, as the Englishman, puzzled, looked at her with elevated brows, she smiled, and added: "On your stick." Has No Corner. "The old fallacy that every man in Boston is simply saturated with learning no longer bothers my mind," said an agent for a Massachusetts firm the other day. "I receive each week two or three dozen letters from the home office and they are written by five or six different men—heads of different executive departments. Now, I also get letters from all parts of the West, but in the Boston letters I find more bad grammar, more miserable rhetoric and more misspelled words in ten letters than I do in 100 written by Western people of the same standard of general intelligence. You don't want to think the Hub has a corner on education." THE STATESMAN, DENVER, COLORADO. AN AMBUSCADE. Danger in Kissing Your Wife If You De It at the Wrong Time. "You must have ben trying to eat a buzzsaw in motion," said the friend to the man who hasn't been married long. "Not as bad as that, but nearly," he responded, as he tenderly rubbed the scars that adorned his mouth and chin. "Been seeing how far you could slide on your face?" asked the friend, anxiously. "No. Say! For heaven's sake, if you will say nothing to anyone I'll tell you how it happened. You know my wife and I have been married just long enough to have most of the gloss rubbed off from the honeymoon? In fact, have arrived at that point where we take things as a matter of course, and realize that there are others in this world as well as ourselves. "Well, the other morning it suddenly dawned upon me that I hadn't kissed her for a whole week, and my conscience smote me. Even now, I told myself, she may be crying her eyes out, under the impression that I love her no longer. I remembered how we had promised each other during our honeymon that our married life would be one long, sweet dream, with the honeymoon as a basis. I chided myself for my indifference and determined to make amends at once. "Well, I looked my wife up and found her in her room doing up her hair before a mirror. Stepping quickly forward, with all the ardor of my courtship days I threw my arm about her and planted a kiss upon her lips. At least such was my intention; but instead, I ran my mouth into a bristling array of hairpins that she had stuck between her lips. If there were any doubts before about the honeymon being over, there was none when the lady got her mouth free of hairpins and said what she had to say on the subject. "The next time I kiss my wife I am going to reconnoiter the field in force before attacking.—Detroit Free Press. Strange Charitable Bequest. Many persons who wish to bestow charity have strange ways of carrying out their ideas. Some years ago an Englishman named James Moss left $500 to be invested in land, the rent of which was to provide five gowns, according to the will, "of a sad blue color" for as many aged and poor men living in the town. The Main Thing. "A village client of mine had been trying through me for seven years to collect a claim against the government," said the lawyer, "and at last the claim was allowed and I received a check for $8,000. "As the man was poor I knew that this would be a great windfall for him and it was with considerable exultation that I put the check in my pocket and started for the house. The man himself was away somewhere, but as his wife answered my knock I showed her the check and called out: "At last, Mrs. Davis—at last!" "'The claim has been allowed and here is a check for $8,000.' "'Yes, I see,' she answered, 'but please don't talk quite so loud or you will wake the baby up!'" Infallibly. There is no place in a woman's room to put a note or a trinket so she will see it first. However, put it on her mirror and she will see it second.

A great step toward the success of her efforts has been accomplished recently, for she has been appointed by the Bengal government as legal adviser to Purdah women in the administration of her estates. The Soft Answer. At a certain inn on the fashionable eastern shore of Massachusetts, the proprietor is noted for his easy-going disposition and his lisp. It happened that the coffee was never just right and the women guests, after a piazza talk, finally went to the proprietor and complained. He promised to have the matter looked into at once. A week passed with no noticeable improvement, so complaint was again made. Said one of the women: "Really, Mr S——, the coffee was worse than ever this morning." "Yes," chimed in another, even worse than in Nice, where they boil chicory and call it coffee!" "And I've just had to take chocolate—which I detest!" added the third matron. Finally the proprietor turned, with his affable smile and lisp, and remarked: "Was it that bad, weally? Well, am glad I took tea."

What "So Long" Means. "You may have wondered, perhaps, how the slang expression, 'so long, came to be so generally used,' said a Columbia college lecturer the other day. "It is usually used in closing a conversation, and is simply a form of good-by. The Norwegians brought it to this country. In that land of the midnight sun, 'saa laeng' is a common form of farewell. It means the same as the 'au revoir' of the French. Among the early settlers in America were many Norwegians, and the phrase was picked up from them.

"We often hear some one say that when the countryman comes to town he gets all befuddled and doesn't know what to do with himself around a railroad station," said the conductor. "I want you to watch the people going through the gate to the trains. You see, there are a good many country people, don't you? They don't seem to be very greatly excited, do they? Now turn your attention for a moment to the city folks. I don't mean the city man who often travels, but those who ride on a train once or twice a year—that is, just about as often as the countryman does. There goes one. See him hustle. He's afraid he's going to miss his train, and yet he knows he's got twenty minutes yet. Ah, he can't find his ticket. He's gettin' 'em sure now." And the conductor and his friend both broke into laughter as the city man began dancing about the gate that marked the way to the trains. In a minute he had fished out his ticket and was shooting through the gate at lightning speed.—Chicago Inter Ocean. Power of Gold. In one of our Eastern cities a certain family suddenly found themselves at the top notch of wealth and prosperity. They then began to seek for the secondary requirement of culture. A most excellent master was engaged to instruct their only daughter on the piano. His patience being taxed to the uttermost, the master complained to the young woman's mother. "Madam, I cannot teach your daughter longer." "And why not? Doesn't my daughter study? I will make her study." "It ees not zat," persisted the old man. "I cannot teach her. She has no talent." "Is that all?" his patroness replied. "I am rich. Here is my pocketbook. Go over to New York and buy her some." Does His Duty Without Fear. Francis I. Henry, the special United States district attorney who brought Senator Mitchell and others to indictment in Oregon, fears nothing and has a record for absolute integrity. In his early days he practiced law in Arizona. A woman came to him for help in securing a divorce on account of her husband's cruelty, but assured him that her husband threatened to kill any lawyer who would take up his wife's case. "Oh, that is a matter that will come up later," said Henry calmly. He got the woman her divorce and next day met the former husband in the street. The latter took a revolver out of his pocket, whereupon Henry, being quicker "on the draw," shot the man dead. The Valley Road. At eventide I shade my eyes And peer into the west. Where, winding down the shining plain, And round each wooded crest. The highroad goes the sunset way, Upon the endless quest. Full many a traveler I have seen (And one was passing fair) Go down the valley from my door, And swiftly vanish there. Some I have sped upon their path, And lightened some of care. One day I too shall take my staff And down the valley go. For one who went was passing fair, And waits for me, I know. And I shall find her-O my soul!— Beyond the sunset glow! -James Owen Tryon in New England Magazine. WARNING.

THE STATESMAN, DENVER, COLORADO. WAS MR. GLADSTONE'S BUTLER. Servitor of Great Statesman Fallen on Evil Times. An uncle of Phil Sheridan and President McKinley's cook have been in the county hospital; the latest celebrity is Gladstone's buttler, who has just been operated on for the identical complaint that brought McKinley's cook to the table. He is a middle-aged Welshman, named John Williams. For eight years he was in the service of Mr. Gladstone at Hawarden, being a beneficiary in the will of the Grand Old Man to the amount of £460. Williams cannot speak of his old master without the tears coming into his eyes. "The servants at Hawarden were all devoted to him," said Williams the other day,. "He was the gentlest man I ever knew. If any of the servants were ill or in trouble he always found out about it, and was more than kind. If anything went wrong with the household arrangements, he never grew ill tempered—only very quiet. "I never had a cross word from him all the eight years I was in his service." Williams has been trying to earn a living as a fisherman of late, but has exhausted his resources through long illness.—Los Angeles Times. The Judas Kiss. Dr. H. W. Wiley, the brilliant and original chief of the bureau of chemistry of the Department of Agriculture, was asked the other day by a reporter why he did not investigate rouge. "Rouge," the reporter said, "may be very harmful, very poisonous, sir. Don't you think that it requires investigation?" Dr. Wiley smiled. "No," he answered, "I can't say I do. If rouge were poisonous, unnumbered women would have died of it long ago. "By the way, I'll tell you a queer thing about rouge. It is something that I came upon one day in a pharmacy, and I think it illustrates an odd phase of human nature. 'A young girl was buying a pot of rouge and I heard her murmur to the clerk: "'You guarantee that this will not rub off?' "'I do, indeed,' the clerk answered. 'This, like all of our rouges, is warranted to stand the hardest kiss of investigation that any of your women friends will try on it.'"—Salt Lake Tribune. Plan Handsome Masonic Temple.

The difference between common sense and arithmetic was illustrated in a remark which Tommy Jones—who is not exceptionally bright, but just a common, natural boy—made in his class at school the other day. It was the lesson in mental arithmetic. The teacher asked Willie Smith: "Which would you rather have, Willie, half an apple or eight-sixteenths of an apple?" "Wouldn't make any difference," said Willie. "Why not?" "Eight-sixteenths and one-half are all the same." At this reply Tommy Jones, who was several steps lower down the class, sniffed scornfully. The teacher heard him. "Well, Tommy," said he, "don't you agree with Willie?" "No, sir," said Tommy. "I'd a good deal rather have one-half an apple." "And why, please?" "More juice. Cut up half an apple into eight-sixteenths and you'd lose half the juice doing it." The Camp Was Lost. Senator McLaurin, while walking through the long basement corridor at Washington, encountered a frenzied woman. "I am lost, I am lost," she cried. "Please show me the way out of this horrid building." The senator very courteously pointed the way, after inquiring where she wished to go. "It reminds me," said he to his companion, "of an incident down in the Mississippi woods. A negro lumberman became lost in the immense forest and could not find his way back to camp. A searching party finally located him wandering about. "'Are you lost?' asked one of the rescuers. "'Lost, boss; no, 'deed, sar,' was his reply, 'but dat camp am lost.'" Musical Education Wasted. Among the hundreds of women who have said time and time again, "if only I had the money that my parents spent for my musical education!" the wife of an American general, must take first rank; for the story goes that after spending $5,000 in the attempt to learn to play, her repertory consists of one sole waltz. The lady calls it her $5,000 waltz, it is said, and laughingly remarks that "it is uncertain as to time and variable as to tune." Colt's Peculiar Appetite. Louis Shoener, a farmer near Swedesboro, N. J., has an eightmonths old colt that has developed a freak appetite. The animal takes very kindly to bread and butter, is very fond of mashed potatoes and gravy, dotes on cakes and pie, revels in pickles, smacks its lips over sauerkraut and pigs' feet and takes coffee like a veteran.—Philadelphia Record.

PHOENIX, ARIZONA If anyone in the fifth Episcopal district has thought for a moment that the people of Phoenix are dead, because they are not heard from each week, it is indeed a mi take. We are alive and active. When Rev. Wagner came here three years ago, there was a debt of $1,000 on the church with only five months in which to save the valuable property. The people rallied around their new standard bearer and in three months raised $500.00 on the principle, and. $97.00 back interest and secured an extension of three years on the remainder. The first Sunday of this month Rev Wagner again asked them to make another effort toward paying the debt and they raised $355 45. Much credit is due the ladies of the various clubs who have labored so faithfully to this end, and who will continue to labor until the last penny is paid. THE STATESMAN, DENVER, COLORADO. Rev. Wagner is a man of push, an interesting speaker and a splendid financier. He says that the chnrch will be free from debt by next fall. ALBUQUERQUE, N.M.
