THE STATESMAN. ORGAN OF THE COLORED PEOPLE IN COLORADO, WYOMING, MONTANA, UTAH AND NEW MEXICO. Answers Page On Negro VOL. XV. Other books have been written by both white and colored authors that have presented various phases of the Negro question—the education, manual training, and the spiritual, moral and social uplifting of the Negro—but this is the first book by a competent member of the black race to give a comprehensive account of the Negro as an American citizen, which is the point at issue between partisans at the present time. The race question has become more and more acute and this book contains just the authoritative information that the American voters and readers need to enable them to understand the present day burning questions concerning the Negro that are occupying so much of the attention of the press, the pulpit, and the Federal and State governments. Dr. Sinclair's book not only states with clearness the present civil conditions of the Negro, but shows the manner in which they have been developed since his emancipation, viewed not from the points of view of the indignant Northerner and the prejudiced Southerner, but from the point of view of that most interested party, the Negro himself. The author has presented for the first time, the historical facts that show why the Negro deserves citizenship. Concerning this new book Colonel Thomas Wentworth Higginson in an introduction writes as follows: "Now that so many authors, Southern and Northern, have suddenly DENVER, COLORADO, FRIDAY, MAY 19, 1905 broken out into the discussion of the so called Negro problem, it is nothing more than fair that another Negro author should have his word to say. The very fact that these Southern contributions cover a very wide range in quality, from the really high-toned and enlightened work entitled 'Problems of the Present South,' by Edgar Gardner Murphy, down to the demagogic glorification of the Ku-Klux Klan by the Rev. Thomas Dixon, Jr., this range of thought makes it only right to recognize the effort of a colored man to be fair and plain spoken in doing justice to his side of the house. "The attempt to do this, at least, is visible in every page of Dr. Sinclair's book. One who like myself has visited within nine months the heart of the former slave states, who has seen the strong effort made by so many of the Southern whites to do justice to the Negro and who has talked freely with Southern public men—in my own case, for instance with the governors of three different states—must needs feel an impulse to take a hand when a colored writer enters on a manly and courageous argument for his own side, such as may be found in this volume.

The Household of Ruth with beautiful regalia added much to the occasion. Last Thursday morning the home of T. Edward Gray was entered by a drunken soldier who forced open the door of the kitchen and for a time was master of the situation. The occupants of the house were without protection of any kind and the only recourse was to bar the door leading to the dining room and telephone the police. The culprit now languishes in the guard house at Fort Russell. Western Star Lodge, No.6, A. F. & A.M., is steadily growing and securing a firm hold on the people in this part of the jurisdiction.

The puzzle department of London Truth recently called for a competition in accounts of a round of golf containing no letter "a" or "u." Here is a good specimen from the many replies received: "I know nothing of golf. Some people do, or pretend to. However, I visit the links, for I like to look on. Slow work, yet good for the liver. They hit some kind of sphere into holes on the green, then seek for it. Some find it in them, some do not. Men who win grin. Men who lose bless everybody, sotto voce, being too polite to do so before people. Women who lose despise the she winners. Their verdict is, 'ill dressed objects,' 'wizened things,' 'no chicken.' Men do differently, for at the finish they do a drink or two together in good fellowship, then mizzle—to dine, not repine." --- Denver Personals.

Collins' Society Circus, a traveling entertainment of national reputation is showing this week at 23d and Welton streets. It combines the features of a Carnival with those of a Circus. One cannot rerlize the magnitude of the attraction without vieiting it. Two rings, a platform, four sets of trapeze apparatus operate simultaneously. Trained animals and many other acts make it great. The Stadium, a coliseum of sensational acts: comprising the flying Moors; Zingarella, the spiral tower; Lizette who leaps the gap; Diavolo, who loops the loop, is the main side features. These all are sensations from Barnum's Cifcus, Coney Islaud and the Pike, Diving ponies give free exhibitions from an elevation of 26 feet. The circus concludes tonight. Do not fail to go.

Zeus had been enthroned and announced that he could do up all the other gods by his sheer strength, but the king of heaven didn't seem to be in a very good humor for all that, and the rest of the divinities wondered what was wrong. Taking Hebe to one side, Zeus queried: "What was that stuff I drank last night, and why under the shade of Olympus do I feel like the second joint of a stewed owl this morning? You served the drinks, I think; maybe you can tell me what's wrong." "Huh!" snorted the pert young damsel of the wine cup. "You ought to know. It's your funeral. Don't you know yesterday was inauguration day?" "And was I inaugurated?" asked Zeus in a stage whisper. "Sure; don't you feel like it?" And the dread monarch, pressing his hands to his aching brow, wondered if the game was worth the candle after all. The Secret of Happiness. The man who can drill his thoughts, so as to shut out everything that is depressing and discouraging and see only the bright side even of his misfortunes and failures, has mastered the secret of happiness and success. He has made himself a magnet to draw friends, cheer, brightness and good fortune to him. His presence is like a sunbeam on a dull day. There is no accomplishment, no touch of culture, no gift which will add so much to the alchemic power of life as the optimistic habit—the determination to be cheerful and happy no matter what comes to us. It will smooth rough paths, light up gloomy places, and melt away obstacles as the sunshine melts snow on the mountain side.—Success. An Exciting Time. To the average Philadelphia New York is a great show place, although few are willing to admit it. Mr. Simone Ford tells the following conversation he heard recently in Philadelphia, the truth of which he vouches for on his honor as a humorist. She was a quiet domestic type, such as abounds in the City of Brotherly Love. "Did you have a good time in New York?" was asked. "Oh, yes," was the reply. "Such a good time! I was taken all through the Bible House and was measured for a new pair of spectacles."—New York Herald. Press Censorship. The press censor in St. Petersburg refuses to permit the mention of astronomical research, "because it tends to subvert traditional belief"; he has also had all reference to Hamlet's weakness and indecision excised from the play on the ground that it is "improper language about a prince of Denmark," and Russia is on friendly terms with the court of Denmark.

Vienna Stage Celebrities Test Public's Judgment of Music. A merry quartette of performers made an interesting experiment in the streets of Vienna, says the New Orleans Times-Democrat, in order to see with their own eyes how the general public would appreciate the highest artistic talent if it were exhibited in the open street, unannounced and unadorned. Miss Gerda Walde, prima donna of the Vienna stage; Louis Treumann, the popular comedian of the Carl theater; Edward Eysler, the composer, and Alfred Deutsch-German, the playwright, arrayed in the garb of ordinary street musicians, made a tour through the principal streets of the city. The composer, Eysler, performed the duties of organ-grinder, while the others sung a repertoire which included such well-known songs as "Geh, Mach Dein Fenster Auf" (Go, Open Your Window"), "Kussen Ist Keine Sund" ("Kissing Is No Sin") and "Jetzt Spielt's Uns an Tanz" (Now They Play and Dance for Us"). The incognito of the celebrated band remained undiscovered and the day's "takings" aggregated a paltry 68 kreutzers (about 1 shilling 2 pence), which they laughingly divided among themselves. Their previous doubts as to the ability of the public to judge of the value of art unassisted by theatrical effect have now given way to settled conviction. But, nevertheless, it would have been interesting to find out what the day's takings would have amounted to had the quartette openly announced themselves as the leading lights of the Austrian musical world. Doubtless the man in the street, even in Vienna, does not look for talent in the streets. Love Not All in Life. In this strenuous era no man of affairs can afford to make love the chief, much less the sole business of his life. He must hold it as a thing apart, something for himself alone and, although he may covet the earth only that he may give it to some woman, he must forget the woman for the time, while he struggles with other men for the prize which he intends to lay at her feet. And the more of a man he is the more thoroughly able he will be to do this, turning back to love always when labor is done. Exchange. A statistician has arrived at the conclusion that $25,000,000 is spent yearly by the public of London on cabs. He also estimates that of that great sum perhaps $7,500,000 represents tips and overcharges. Miss M. COWDEN. Hair Dressing PARLORS. Shampooing, Cutting and Curling. All Hair Work made to order.

Modesty is the best policy. A word to the wise is wasted. A watched pot never boils over. Discretion is the unpopular part of valor A company is known by the men it keeps. A party and his money are soon fooled. A rolling stone gathers much experience. Time and tide could wait for no woman.—Lippincott's. In every man there is a disposition to do the grand where women are concerned. It hurts a woman's pride to have another woman share with her a man's attentions. When one man sneers at another it is fair to presume jealousy is at the bottom of it. The actual tides of a lake are excessively small. Nevertheless, noticeable alterations of level often occur, which were long regarded as mysterious. Recent observations in Switzerland make it certain that in these oscillations are due to differences in air pressure at different points on the lake. If the lake is large enough for the barometer to be high at one end while there is still a low pressure area over the other, water will be forced toward the place where the pressure is lower and an oscillation of level will result. Provided for Pet Alligator. Some twenty years ago a rich South American died who left a considerable sum of money in trust for a pet alligator, which for some years had lived in a small artificial lake which had been made in his owner's grounds for the purpose, the special provision being that his scales were to be cleaned at least twice per annum, and he was to be well fed, and when ill to have the attention of a veterinary surgeon. Make a Religion of Hospitality. Hospitality offered to the stranger under the roof is almost a religion with the Syrian householder, although to be the "stranger" is a difficult matter. Except among her own people the young Syrian girl is kept in haremlike seclusion. There is one way only in which the curious American can get into one of these homes, and that is in the guise of a buyer. The Flower Girl. She stands downtown on a corner and cries Of her wares to the passers-by, Violets as blue as her dewy eyes, But never half so sweetly shy; "Come this way to buy your flowers! Here's a big bouquet goin' cheap— It's picked just a couple o' hours— Take it home for your wife to keep!" All days she sings her gay little song. And watches the crowd the while; She sizes them up as they hurry along. She knows who to hall with a smile; "Buy some vl'lets for your sweet'art— They are love's own flowers, true blue— It's sad from her you had to part— Send her these for to think of you!" —New Orleans Pikayuna. --- The Surprise. "It was up at Blimley's last night and Blimley insisted on having that 7-year-old daughter of his recite for us." "That's just like a doting father." "Yes. The child was willing enough to show off and so she got up and told us how Sarah Bernhardt would recite 'Jack and Jill.'" "Good gracious! What did Blimley do?" "He sat there smiling fatuously. Of course we all had to applaud and then the little one gave an imitation of Maude Adams, and another of Annie Russell, and still another of Anna Held." "Well, well! And of course you had to applaud?" "Of course." "And Blimley sat there all the time under the impression that you were really being entertained?" "Yes. He sat there nodding and chuckling and looking like a happy iiot." "What an awful bore it must have been." "It wasn't." "Wasn't? Why not?" "Because the child is phenomenally clever."—Cleveland Plain Dealer. ForFine Tailoring GOOD FIT And Workmanship GO TO B.

Gustave Nagel was a very delicate child and grew to manhood almost a chronic invalid. His parents had spent fortunes on medical attention for him, and he had consumed barrels of medicine, but all to no effect. Some years ago he conceived the idea that modern man lived too far from the state in which nature intended that he should, and he resolved to return to the habits of his primeval forefathers and become strong or die in the attempt. He discarded all clothes, except what the law required, ate only raw foods and no meat, and bathed only in water of a natural temperature. At first of course he suffered severely, but in a few years he was able to walk barefooted in the snow with as little discomfort as the ordinary mortal suffers going shoeless on a sandy beach in summer. When he bathes he never dries himself, when he sleeps he prefers the cold, bare ground; he never has his hair cut short, deeming it a protection from the weather given man, by nature; his food is of fruits, vegetables, bread and nuts. Nagel is about to be married, but I am not able to say whether the lady of his choice is a new woman or has primeval tendencies like his own.—London Tatler. Elephant Turned the Tables. Sir Frederick Saunders and a friend were out elephant shooting in Ceylon, when the friend, being surprised by his quarry, dropped his rifle and made for a tree. The elephant, being wounded, seized the abandoned weapon in a transport of rage. The rifle went off and shot its owner in the ankle. Great fortunes have been made out of quinine. At the time when Louis XIV purchased the secret, a pound of the bark cost about $50. As it came into general use, it became a most important article of export from Peru; now it is successfully cultivated in Ceylon and Java. THE DENVER DRY GOODS CO.

In the winter of 1903-4 Miss Alice A. Blake, a Christian Endeavor teacher in a school at Trementina, N. M., found herself in the midst of a scourge of diphtheria. A Mexican drove up one day with his wife and babe, and they were related to some of her pupils. She dismissed the school in order that the latter might go out to greet their friends. The baby was fondled and kissed and that night it was stricken with the disease. Miss Blake at once closed her school and prepared for a siege. The disease spread rapidly, and she established a quarantine as thoroughly as possible. She personally took care of fifty-four cases, and was then attacked herself. She sent forty miles for antitoxin, but when it arrived she had improved so much that she reserved her supply for others, and nursed patients until they numbered in all seventy-six. The scourge had run its course, and she took a vacation, not for rest, but to attend a training school for nurses at Colorado Springs. As soon as her course was finished she went back to her work, but none too quickly, for she encountered an epidemic of typhoid fever. She personally attended quite a number of patients, and nursed them all back to safety. 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. Thomas Hardy in Literature. "What, then, do you think of the state of literature to-day?" was a question recently asked Thomas Hardy by a London interviewer, to whom he replied: "The fatal defect of most of it is the absence of a philisophic standpoint and what lacks that can neither be of the highest quality nor enduring. Descriptions of life, however brilliant or varied, are not sufficient; some reasoned comment on life as a whole, some sustained criticism—the outcome of modern knowledge—on the relations of man to the universe, both now and in the past, are essential in literature, and these we now look for largely in vain." Our Saints From the eternal shadow rounding, All unsure and starlight here. Voices of our lost ones sounding, Bid us be of heart and cheer. Through the silence, down the spaces falling on the inward ear. Know we not our dead are looking Downward, as in sad surprise. All our strife of words rebuking With their mild and earnest eyes? Shall we grieve the holy angels, shall we cloud their blessed skies? Let us draw their mantles o'er us, Which have fallen in our way; Let us do the work before us Calmly, bravely, while we may. Ere the long night-silence cometh, and with us it is not day! —John G. Whittler. The Carlines Are Ladies Now. All things come at last to those who know how to wait, but the interval is sometimes long and tedious. Three hundred years ago there was a little group of ladies in Scotland who tried to obtain something and failed. Last week their successors at length obtained their hearts' desire. When James I. found that the wives of the Lords of Session were trying to get themselves called "my lady" he would have none of it. "True," he said, "I made the carls lords, but who made the carlines ladies?" His descendant and successor, King Edward VII., has made the carlines ladies at last, and joy reigns in more than one feminine bosom beyond the Tweed. It is, no doubt, an anomaly that a husband should be "your lordship" and his wife plain "ma'am," but it is one from which bishops' wives suffer to this day, and from which they will probably continue to suffer.—The Guardian. Lew Field's Latest. Here is Lew Field's latest scholastic story about his young son, Joseph: "The other morning Joseph's school teacher asked if any boy in the class could speak a sentence containing the word 'foregoing.' Joseph promptly raised his hand, indicating that he was ready with the sentence. "Well, go ahead, Joseph," said the teacher. "Last Saturday afternoon I went to papa's theater to see "It Happened in Nordland." Uncle Charley Fields was standing at the door. Three newspaper men came up and shook hands with him. Then they all walked away, and pretty soon I saw the four going into the Dunsmore Cafe.'"—New York World. F. cf. Bowne's Draculm. Prof. Borden P. Bowne of Boston university is not only a great wit, but an inveterate punster. One morning in the philosophy class a student who was not willing to accept anything until he saw it raised a great many objections. The professor answered them as best he could; then, looking around the class, remarked: "Has any one else any scruples?" and proceeded to make a bad pun by adding. "If we could get scruples enough together we might raise a drachm among us." To which the student replied: "Professor, a good many people take that kind of a drachm without any scruples." Where Fires Are Needed. "Cashman thinks of fitting out a North Pole expedition." "Has he money enough for that?" "Well, he has money to burn." . She Hurt His Feelings. "Look here," said the housewife to the match pedler, "you were along here two-weeks ago and said you had the best kind of parlor matches to sell." "You speak the truth, mum." "I bought a quarter's worth of you." "I'm saying you did that." "But there's not one that will light. They are positively worthless." The man stood for a moment gazing at her and then a tear rolled down his cheek. "Well, what is it?" she asked. "It's me feelin's, mum. You've hurt 'em to the quick." "How so?" "When I sold you them matches I took you for a real lady, but I see that you are not. Had you been you would have used them for toothpicks and said never a word to humble my pride."—Cleveland Plain Dealer. The Handlebars. Not long ago a goat was purchased by Dr. Cartright for his children's amusement. The afternoon of its arrival, according to Lippincott's Magazine, little Margaret, aged 3, went into the yard where her brother was playing with the prize. After a brief inspection of the animal she exclaimed: "Oh, George, let me hold its handle bars!" Intelligence of Dogs. It is well known that dogs of certain breeds especially, have a considerable amount of intelligence. As the constant companion of man through generations the brain of the dog has been developing, until at the present time it is probable that this animal can be more easily trained than any other. For something like eighty years the monks of St. Bernard have trained and used dogs to rescue travelers lost in the snow. In Europe many of the armies, inspired by this idea, employ dogs to seek out the wounded on the field of battle and thus aid in the work of the ambulance corps. In Germany dogs are attached to the ambulance service in many regiments, and were employed in the Herrero expedition in Africa. In Austria, France, Italy, Switzerland, Holland, Russia and America dogs are utilized in ambulance work. The Fatherland. Where is the true man's fatherland? Is it where he by chance is born? Doth not the yearning spirit scorn In such scant borders to be spanned? Oh yes! his fatherland must be As the blue heaven wide and free! Is it alone where freedom is, Where God is God and man is man? Doth he not claim a broader span For the soul's love of home than this? Oh yes! his fatherland must be As the blue heaven wide and free! Where'er a human heart doth wear Jip's myrtle-wreath or sorrow's gyves, Where'er a human spirit strives After a life more true and fair, There is the true man's birthplace grand, His is a world-wide fatherland! Where'er a single slave doth pine, Where'er one man may help another— Thank God for such a birthright brother— That spot on earth is thine and mine! There is the true man's birthplace grand, His is a world-wide fatherland! —Lowell. Find the Sky. Said a great philosopher: "In your landscape leave the sky. But the artist's work we blur, And the master's plea deny. Blotting out the cheerful blue By our shadings of despair. Heeding not the promise true Writ in rainbow letters there. THE STATESMAN, DENVER, COLORADO. Modern Tendency to Hurry. President Faunce of Brown university tells an amusing story illustrative of the hurry tendencies of the age. "Even the children," he said, "discount the future these days. Recently I noticed two little boys and two little girls much engrossed in a game they were playing. The boys and one of the girls, the elder, were together in one corner of the room, and the other little girl, who was hardly big enough to walk, was behind the door. "What are you playing?" I asked one of the boys. "We're playing family,' he replied. 'I'm the father, Tommy's the doctor, and Sadie, here, is the mamma. Tessie, over yonder behind the door, is the baby, waiting to be borned.'"—New York Times. The Japanese Way. At Trinidad she made the acquaintance of a young Japanese prince, who to-day is no doubt fighting under Admiral Togo. Certainly he was learning his trade on board a German warship, for just read of his zeal: "One beautiful evening we were going to take tea on board this same German man-of-war, and I noticed on a launch which was sent to tow our own barge a grimy little figure working away at the miniature stoke hole. 'Who is that?' I asked. 'That? Oh, that's the prince, of course. He begged to be allowed to come and stoke for you. He wanted to learn just how that furnace went.'"—From Lady Broomer's "Colonial Memoirs." Volunteers of America. According to the annual report of the Volunteers of America, of whom Ballington Booth is the leader, the congregations at the 35,000 services during the year within the Volunteer halls and buildings reached 1,069,955 persons. Belleve Fish Have Souls. It is said that the Shoshone and Sioux Indians, as well as some other tribes, including the Mohawks, believe that fish have souls and that whoever catches and eats them must throw the bones back into the water, otherwise the fish will return to haunt him. Girl Turns Out Lights. The Strassburg police were puzzled for some time by the fact that every night a number of street lights were turned off. They finally succeeded in catching the culprit—a young girl, who gave as her excuse for her strange conduct that it amused her. Finds Gold in Sand. The remains of some sand that had been carted from Lytle creek into San Bernardina, Cal., for building purposes yielded $15 worth of gold to a prospector whose experienced eye had noted the metal's glitter as he was passing it. Superstitious Beliefs Cling. In the reservation schools established by Uncle Sam it has been found that superstition is the most difficult element to eradicate; and until it can be conquered the inculcation of the higher knowledge will prove futile. Hotel Lacking in Felicities. Half the profound truths one hears are spoken entirely by mistake. Up in the Virginia hills is a small hotel, or large boarding house, whichever you like to call it, where the air and scenery are supposed to make up for the lack of modern conveniences, a pitiful foot tub and a pint of water greet you every morning, and you pine for your home tub as Moses' followers hankered for the fleshpots. A Washington woman, who is own sister to Mrs. Parkington, is staying up there.

The True Philosopher's Stone. Pope Leo X. is credited with having administered a most appropriate rebuke upon a presuming visionary who pretended to have discovered the philosopher's stone and demanded a recompense therefor. His Holiness presented the discoverer with an empty purse. "The true possessor of the philosopher's stone," said the Pope, "is the miner, whose iron, copper or tin are always convertible into more precious metals. Agriculture is the noblest of all alchemy, for it turns the common earth into gold and confers upon its cultivator the additional reward of health." ENGRAVING FOR ALL PURPOSES THE APP SUTHERLAND CO.

A device to prevent the drying out of corks in liquor and wine bottles, which has the effect of making the contents of the bottle flat and stale, is to be seen at a St. Louis whole- saler’s establishment. It consists of a cork which is supplied with a cell into which some moisture-saturated material is placed before the corking operation is performed, and it is said that this will keep the cork in the proper condition indefinitely.

A kindergarten teacher in one of the public schools who had been talk- {ng to the children about the sun asked a new pupil where it set.

PAaAAADA AA AAAAAMAAAAAM DAA AAA WAS A BRIGHT YOUNGSTER. President Hadley of Yale Early Acquired Learning. It is said of President Arthur T. Hadley of Yale that he was a scholar in his cradle; that he lisped in Latin when other babies only prattled, and cried in Greek on occasions when the ordinary youngster yelled lustily in Volapuk. A story that gives credence to this tradition about the famous economist has just come to the light of day. It was told at a dinner party of scholars given recently at a fashionable house in Boston by one of the guests, who declared that his father was being entertained at luncheon by the elder Hadley, the great Greek scholar, on the occasion, and that this had until his father's death been one of his most cherished stories. Young Hadley was only four at the time, yet he usually sat at table with the family when there were guests, excepting on extreme state occasions. At this luncheon, during a little lull in the conversation, the child missing salt from the table, called out: "Mamma, have we any sodium chloride in that cupboard over there?" "Why, I don't know, son," replied his mother. Then, before she could say more or inquire further as to his wants, he turned to his father and asked the same question in the same way. His father, replying in the same sort of half-inquiring manner as had his mother, the boy very naively, with perfect unconsciousness, and addressing nobody in particular, said half to himself: "My father doesn't know whether there is any sodium chloride in that cupboard or not because he doesn't know what is in the cupboard, and my mother doesn't know, either, because mamma doesn't know what sodium chloride is." Name Seems a Hoodoo. That British built combination of turbine steam yacht and torpedo boat destroyer which recently slipped out of England into Russian possession, named Caroline, is not the first boat of that name which has caused more or less serious international complications. In 1837 American sympathizers with the Canadian rebels occupied Navi island, which is near Niagara falls on the British side of the frontier. Here they kept up a running fire and, to aid them in their operations, bought a steamer called the Caroline, which belonged to a citizen of Buffalo. She carried arms, ammunition and even cannon. So openly did she defy the law of nations, indeed, that a party of Canadians surrounded her one dark night and, driving off her crew at the point of the bayonet, set her on fire and cast her adrift. As the incident happened on American soil there was a great outcry at once and for a time it looked as though the two countries would be involved in war. Pioneers' Use of Quinine. The soldiers in our civil war depended greatly upon quinine. The pioneers in our country when it was first settled and civilized had as hard work fighting fever and ague in the then swampy, malarial districts as in fighting Indians, and quinine was even more necessary than firearms. THE STATESMAN, DENVER, COLORADO. 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. 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." Sweet Night. sweet moon, shine on her window through the night. To show her God has set a gentle light Between her days. Sweet sleep, enfold her softly where she lies And steal away insomnia from the eyes Which many praise. Sweet dreams, which visit those whose sleep is sweet. Come to her slumbers; make her smile to greet Unconsciousness. Sweet morning, wake her with thy joyous sounds. Fill her with gladness that her life abounds With power to bless! —H. Higgason. The Hand of Fate. "This line in your hand," said the girl who had studied palmistry, "indicates that you have a brilliant future before you." "Is that so?" queried the dense young man. "Yes," answered the fair maid; "but this other line indicates that you are too slow to ever catch up with it." Getting Closer to Heaven. Once in the Pacific coast forests, the writer came upon a magnificent sugar pine, the only tree of its kind for miles around and a landmark even in that region of giant trees. My guide, as he looked up at the top, which lifted itself almost into the clouds, remarked: "If a man could climb that tree on a Christmas morning he could hear the church bells ringing in heaven."—Exchange.

In many of the European cafes of the cheaper order it is the invariable custom to print the daily menu on the napkin provided for the guest, so that when the latter desires to study the bill of fare he has to raise his serviette from his knee in order to do so. But perhaps the most extraordinary custom in connection with restaurant life is that which obtains in a certain little cafe in the suburbs of Paris, where every customer whose bill amounts to 25 cents or over is entitled to receive a kiss from the very attractive young lady who acts as cashier to the establishment. So used has the damsel become to the osculatory routine that she goes through it without the slightest reticence, looking upon it purely as a matter of business, and it is reported that the proprietor of the restaurant is more than satisfied with the result of his curious device for attracting patrons. Another enterprising restauranteur has instituted the practice of making a present of a box of Havana cigars every New Year's day to those patrons who have been pretty regular in their attendance at his establishment during the preceding year. Wears a Mouse in Church. A little mouse might have created a panic in the First Baptist church here, says a dispatch from West Chester, Pa., but this was prevented by the sensible action of those who were near the retiring young woman most directly involved. She was a pretty normal school student and the mouse had been carried to church services among the flowers on her hat. In the midst of the sermon the little animal made its appearance on the hat, performed a number of antics and kept them up during the service. At the close the young woman was invited to the room below, her hat was taken by a friend and there was a mouse-killing. A Ray of Hope.

Something curious in the way of miniature violins is to be seen in a violin-maker's shop on North Ninth street, says the Philadelphia Record, though the collection is of no practical utility, the instruments being far too small to be used in producing music. They are interesting chiefly as showing what patience and skill were brought to their making. There are six of them, each with a bow. The largest violin is not over two and a half inches long in the body, while the smallest hardly exceeds an inch in length. Each of them, however, is perfect, with keys which turn, a bridge, sound holes in the belly, a sound post and a tail piece. Each of them has strings and it is possible to tune them, but the notes they give out are so high in the scale as to be far away from what might properly be termed musical sounds. The bows are as complete as the violins, with real horsehair, a screw to tighten them and all else to be found on the practical bow. The collection is displayed in a little wallcase with a glass front, about a foot square. It came from Germany, where the violins were made, and its owner does not know why the instruments were constructed unless to show what the workman could do. He says it would be more trouble to make one of them than two violins of the ordinary size. Find Buried Treasure. In the immediate neighborhood of the little town of Klingman, in Switzerland, a case was found containing an assortment of 829 gold coins. Most of the coins are of the years from 1602 to 1704. It is thought that the gold was buried at the time of the Spanish war of succession. The gold value of the coins is estimated at 35,000, and the numismatic value at over 100,000 francs. A SURE THING. It is said that nothing is sure except death and taxes, but that is not altogether true. Dr. King's New discovery for Consumption is a sure cure for all lung and throat troubles. Thousands can testify to that. Mrs. C. B. Van Metre of Shepherdtown, W. Va., says "I had a severe case of Bronchitis and for a year tried everything I heard of, but got no relief. One bottle of Dr. King's New Discovery then cured me absolutely." It's infallible for Croup, Whooping Cough, Grip Pneumonia and Consumption. Try it.

A few flowers, a small lawn and even mere existence subjects Denverites to extortion beside which a bandit becomes a public benefactor. This newspaper has two presses in its job department and though not a drop of water is ever used on either we pay $16.00 per year to the Water Co. If ever it is up to the people to throttle this vampire, self preservation will make our choice of sides easy. Only a manly man has the courage to say he was in the wrong. The manner in which the Boston Guardian treats the denial that Bruce Grit gives to the report which the Guardian circulated concerning Collector Anderson of New York, will not add to Editor Trotter's reputation for fair play. It is an old trick of unscrupulous editors to create impression by inference where they do not speak out plainly. Morning. Will there really be a morning? Is there such a thing as day?

A well known lecturer, who had been invited to serve as a substitute in a country place, felt some nervousness, knowing he was to fill the place of a more famous man. This feeling was not diminished when he heard himself thus announced by a long limbed, keen eyed farmer: "This man is our substitute. I don't know what he can do. Time was short, and we had to take what we could git!" Increases Coinage of Farthings. Increases Collage of Farthings. The British mint has been busily engaged in coining farthings. Until very recently the farthing has been almost an unknown coin in many, perhaps the majority of the British possessions. They are only coined to encourage thrift in the colonies. By introducing the smallest coin of the realm a saving can be effected on purchaser of small quantities of goods. Wanted Medicine fcr Right Side. "A woman came into my store the other day," remarked the druggist, "and asked my assistant to give her something for a pain she had in her right side. While the young man was compounding the mixture, the woman approached me and said: 'Are you sure he will give me what I need? Tell him to be sure and make up the medicine for the right side.'"

Father Hopkins, superior general of the Order of St. Paul, in whose abbey at Alton, England, shelter is given to worn-out merchant seamen, remarked to an audience recently that the peace of the abbey was more assured by his ability to "take a man by the scruff of the neck and throw him out" than by his ability to preach or pray. Balked at Name "Port Arthur." Some time ago in England a woman wanted her baby named "Port Arthur," but the clergyman refused and finally the "Port" was stricken out. Unique Jail.

On the borders between China and Russia, in Asia, is a good-sized town known as Marinatchin, which is inhabited exclusively by men. An old law forbids women to live there. Born, Not Made. The art of ruling is capricious; the highly educated and even the experienced are often outdone by some coarse upstart with a mere instinct for the right course.—Adrian Ross, in the Harvard's Choice Treasure. Harvard college is rich in treasures of many kinds in its vast series of museums, but the choicest of all its treasures is the Ware collection of Blaschka glass models of plants in the Botanical museum The Bishop's Timely Text. One of the occasions when Bishop Brooks preached at Harvard a special musical service was given. Solomon better known to the students as "Sol," again consented to sing for the great preacher. He sang a solo before the sermon in fine voice and in a beautiful way that touched his hearers. The impressive silence that followed was broken by the famous bishop's text: "Soul."
