Arnett were refused a ride down in the elevator of the Hotel Belvidere. Baltimore, and were told that they must ride in the back elevator used for the hotel servants and for freight. The two bishops, representing the two large colored Methodist denominations, are members of the trustee board of the United Society of Christian Endeavor, which was holding its convention in Baltimore and went to the top of the hotel, to the assembly room to a meeting. Whi'e they were there a colored delegate had attempted to go up in the elevator and being refused had left the hotel. Thereupon the clerk ordered the elevator boy not to carry any colored passengers. Soon thereafter the trustees adjourned and Bishop Arnett started to enter the elevator with the others to go down. The boy said all colored men must take the back or freight elevator. Remonstrance was of no avail. The report says the group of ten or twelve men were at first speechless. Then --- NO.57 one said: "This is an outrage." At this junctuee Treasurer Shaw took the Bishop's arm and went to the rear elevator and went down with him. Tennessee's Jim Crow law has struck a snag at Bristol, a town lying partly in Virginia and partly in Tennessee. There is a street car line running down the main street of the town on the state line. In Tennessee the Negrces must stay in a special compartment provided for them, but there is no such requirement in Virginia. All the Negroes have to do is get on the Virginia or north side of the car, and they can sit where they please, but if they land on the south or Tennessee side they must ride in the Negro section. The law is causing almost hopeless confusion and the officials are having a hard time enforcing its provisions. It is reported that every wheel now in service on the railways of the world is from the mold of a colored man, E. R. Robinson, who claims the patent right and after eight years legal battle seems about to win his suit with the Chicago City Railway company. He has refused to settle for less than $10,000,000, which he seems likely to get in short order. Don Quixote 300 Years Old. In 1905 it will be 300 years since "Don Quixote" was first published. The anniversary is to be observed in Spain by the publication of three special editions of the masterpiece—a cheap popular edition, an abridged edition for use in secondary schools and a more condensed edition for the common schools. A Cervantes institute will be established as a refuge for superannuated needy writers and artists. Also a Cervantes museum will be established in Alcala. Then there will be contests for the best critical editions of minor works of Cervantes, productions of several of his plays and university festivities. THE STATESMAN, DENVER, COLORADO. MR. STANDISH'S INTERFERENCE WAS WELL MEANT. But the Denouement Made Him Wonder Whether He Would Not Bettar Stick to His Own Business After All Surprise for Some Woman. Mr. Standish was mad when he went into the millinery establishment, and the longer he stayed the madder he got. Presently he walked over to a stunning black creation that huzz on a peg near the window and said: "This is the hat I want to see you about." The proprietor came forward. "What can I do for you?" he asked. "You can fix this hat over the way my wife asked you to," said Standish. "She wants the feather put on the other side, that bow moved to the front, and she wants the rim to bulge a little more over the temples. "She says you've refused to make any alterations on the ground that the addition or subtraction of another stitch is bound to ruin it, but I tell you that's all nonsense. My wife knows how she wants her hat to look, and if she can't stand up for her rights I'll do it for her. She is coming around this afternoon to try the hat on again. If it isn't ready by that time there'll be no end of a row." The proprietor twirled the black hat on his forefinger and looked from it to the head saleswoman lugubriously. "I remember," he said, "that the lady who ordered this hat did bring it back yesterday to be remodeled. Perhaps it will be possible to make the alterations suggested, after all." The manager's humility made Standish feel very proud of himself. "That's the only way to deal with those fellows," he said when he left the shop. "You've got to meet them on their own level. It takes a man to do that. No wonder women get cheated out of their very eye teeth. They haven't got sand enough to say the things that have to be said to secure their rights." Throughout the day Standish continued to revel in self-congratulations, and he actually went home half an hour ahead of time to see if his wife's hat had been metamorphosed into the thing of beauty he had suggested. "Well," said he, jubilantly, "was the hat all right?" "All right?" said Mrs. Standish. "They hadn't even touched it. How could you expect it to be all right when you didn't stop to see about it?" "But I did stop," protested Standish, "I saw everybody about the place and laid the whole establishment out in great shape. Here's their card. I picked it up as I was passing out." Mrs. Standish took up the card and read the name aloud. "O-o-o-oh!" she cried. "Is that where you went. Why, you got into the wrong place. What on earth will that manager think? He must think you are crazy." "I don't care if he does," said Standish, limply, "but I would like to know what the owner of that black hat will say if they make it over according to my directions." Free from the distractions of life, the aged are at leisure to observe and admire. "I never knew," said Cornaro, "that the world was beautiful until I reached old age." This period was frequently declared by him to be the most beautiful of his life. Writing at the age of ninety-one, he said that he felt it his duty to make known to the world that man could attain to an earthly paradise after the age of eighty; but only by means of the two virtues, self-restraint and temperance. At that time he was writing eight hours a day, walking and singing many other hours, enjoying the beauties of nature, and abundant in labors for the good of mankind.—Good Health. From "The Lift of the Heart." When we stand with the woods around us And the breath of the pines is shed; When the song of the thrush is ringing— Wonderful. rich, apart— Between the sound and the silence Comes a sudden lift of the heart. When we seek with the clearer vision That Grief the Revealer brings For the threads that are shot together In the close-wrought Web of Things; And find that Pain is woven Into Love and Joy and Art— Between the search and the solace Comes a sudden lift of the heart. And when life's farthing candle Gutters and flares and sinks: When the eye no longer wanders, And the brain no longer thinks; When only the hand plucks idly At the sheet till the spirit part-- Does there come between living and dying A sudden lift of the heart? -Ellizabeth Kemper Adams in Atlantic.

BLIND FARMER BOY A MARVEL Stephen Mellinger, of Denver, Pa., does things remarkable in one who moves, as he does, in continual darkness, says Leslie's Weekly. When Mellinger, now 18 years of age, was 2 years old, he blinded himself incurably with a hatchet. He has so adapted himself to his condition that he acts virtually as if in possession of his eyesight. His misfortune has not been allowed to interfere in the least with his usefulness. His sense of touch and hearing are very keen. He works in the fields. He sows, uses the rake and spade, helps harvest the crops, milks, climbs trees and, what is still more remarkable, drives spirited horses and rides a bicycle. The boy is as bright and cheerful as any of his associates. He is able to harness a horse unaided and to drive several miles to the village, where the household supplies are obtained. Every morning it is his duty to hitch a horse to a milk wagon and drive a mile to Denver village. In this drive he is compelled to cross railroad tracks at two points. Spirited horses are his delight, and two belonging to his father, which are too wild for the average man to handle with safety, are used by him without a thought of danger. It is unwise for other persons than him to approach these animals. The young man does not work, ride or walk in a hesitating manner, after the usual fashion of the blind. He takes a fast horse out on the road and gallops at full speed, turning out for vehicles and other horses, and rounding sharp corners without pulling up. On his wheel he rides as if possessed of full sight and can be seen alone miles from his home. Dean Swift and His Visitor. The great Dean Swift was noted for his sharp speeches, which were oftentimes cruel, but were sometimes, as in the following story, richly merited: He was one day visited by a Dublin printer, who had just returned from London, and was dressed in a rich coat of silk and gold lace, which he had purchased there. When he entered the room the printer saluted the dean familiarly as if he were an old acquaintance. He seemed so proud of his grand coat that the dean resolved to humble him. So he pretended that he did not know the printer; said that he was an impostor, and bade him leave the house. The printer saw the mistake which he had made, and, returning home, he put on his usual dress. Then he again went to the dean, and this time was warmly welcomed. "Ah, George," said the dean, "I am so glad to see you, for there has been an impudent fop here in silks and gold lace who wanted to pass himself off for you, but I knew you to be always a plainly dressed, honest man just as you are now." A man could always afford to give his wife, furs and pearl necklaces it being married weren't so expensive in other ways. When a man equeezes his wife's hand she can tell by the way he does it whether he is absent-minded and thinks it is somebody else.—New York Press.

In a certain town of Connecticut a deacon of the church, charged with soliciting subscriptions for a charity, recently experienced considerable difficulty in getting the townsmen to contribute. To one of his neighbors the deacon said: "Oh, come, Richard, do give something." "Sorry, deacon," answered Richard, "but I don't see how I can." "Why not? Isn't the cause a good one?" "Oh, yes, the cause is good enough; but I owe too much money." "But, Richard, you owe God a larger debt than anyone else." "That's true, too," drawled Richard, "but God ain't pushin' me."—Harper's Weekly. Overheard by Central. The telephone operator at Bellevue hospital, who is often obliged to give distressing information concerning patients to relatives inquiring by telephone, received a shock the other night. A man inquired, feelingly, about the condition of so-and-so. The operator replied cheerfully that the patient was doing nicely. "Doing nicely? Why, I thought he was dying," came in a tone of pained surprise from the other end of the wire. "Are you a relative?" asked the operator, anxious to learn why the inquirer seemed disappointed. "—— no!" came the response. "I'm the undertaker."—New York Sun. Little Fear of Premature Burial. Although premature burial is extremely rare, except perhaps on the battlefield, the possibility of such an occurrence cannot be denied. It is well known that, owing to this possibility, remote as it is, many otherwise strong-minded persons have lived under the shadow of a great fear, and have in their wills directed payments to be made to physicians who should be willing to run the risk of homicide to prevent live burial. It may safely be said, however, that the horrors of the accident are imaginary rather than real. If a person in a state of trance were to be buried while life still persisted in a latent state, it is scarcely conceivable that the victim could awake; the unconsciousness of catalepsy would simply deepen until it became fixed in the dreamless sleep of death.—British Medical Journal. --- THE STATESMAN, DENVER, COLORADO WHAT THE TEACHER SAID. Not Exactly What Eddie's Fend Mother Had Thought. Last Sunday Eddie made his debut as a Sunday school scholar. Everybody about the house was interested in the event, and for several days preceding the Sabbath various members of the family had taken pains to coach him for the ordeal. They had taught him the golden text, and the story of the lesson, and finally Edwin, arrayed in his best suit of clothes and with a new 1904 penny in his pocket to be dropped into the contribution box, was directed into the path which all good little boys are supposed to tread. "When he came home his relations and friends were anxious to hear a report of his experiences. "Well, Eddy," said his mother, "did you have a nice time." "Yes, ma'am." "Did you say the text?" "Yes, ma'am." "And did you remember the lesson?" "Yes, ma'am. I said it all off by heart." "And did you put your penny into the basket?" "Yes, ma'am." Edwin's mother grabbed him up and hugged him ecstatically. "Oh, you little precious!" she said. "Your teacher must have been proud of you. I know she just loved you. She said something to you, didn't she?" "Yes, ma'am." "I know it," said the fond parent. "Come, Eddy, darling, tell mother what the teacher said to mother's little man." "She said," was the startling reply, "for me to bring two pennies next Sunday." Mac's Liniment Mr. Mac is a tall, slender gentleman with a taste for racing and all kinds of horse sports. Lately he has been training so hard with his "mount" that he has complained several times to his spouse about having a "backache." One evening he came in late and woke the lady with a request that she rub his back. "All right—sure, Mac," she replied sleepily; "wait just a minute until I get awake." Straightway she fell asleep again. Next day, remembering the incident she apologized to her husband. "It doesn't matter," he replied, "I rubbed some stuff on myself, and I think it's done me good." Mr. Mac continued each night thereafter to rub the "stuff" on himself, until one evening Mrs. Mac, chancing to awake, observed him. "Mac," she demanded, "what is that you are using?" "Why, it's just crackerjack liniment," he replied. "Found it in the drawer there." A peal of laughter from his wife made him pause. "O, Mac," she cried, "that's a bottle of stuff I got to remove grease spots. Don't use another drop, on your life, or there'll be nothing left of you but a bone."—Portland Oregonian.

Two Anglers, In Despair, Buy Them in Place of Minnows. A pair of Philadelphiaans who went down to Gibbsboro on a fishing expedition recently, says the Philadelphia Record, discovered when they arrived in the Jersey town that they were shy on bait. As the fishermen were out for bass and pike, live bait was necessary; so a small boy was hired to catch minnows. He scooped in thirty-five, and charged I cent apiece for the fish. The anglers paid the price, and then found the minnows too small to swim about after they had been hooked, a circumstance which seemed to knock the bottom out of the fishing trip, as, unless the bait is lively, the bass and pike do not bite. The pair had about decided to go home when one spied an aquarium filled with goldfish in a store window. He suggested the goldfish as bait, and both men secured a dozen for a comparatively small sum. The experiment was a success. The anglers caught a fair mess and found the goldfish to be very hardy. A pair which had been used as bait, and had escaped the hungry pike and bass seemed none the worse for having been hooked and swam about when returned to the aquarium as if nothing had disturbed their monotonous career. --- TRICK WITH BOILING WATER. Why a Redhot Poker Does Not Cause It to Hiss and Sputter. If a redhot poker be thrust into cold water it hisses and sputters; if into boiling water, there is no commotion, says London Answers. When in the first experiment cold water comes in contact with the hot iron there is a sudden and explosive generation of steam, which causes the liquid to be scattered with a hissing noise, consequent upon the bursting of innumerable bubbles. When, on the other hand, a poker is thrust into boiling water, which is already giving forth steam, the introduction of the hot iron, by still further assisting steam production, causes the poker to become at once surrounded by a sheath of vapor, which effectually prevents the water from coming into actual contact with the metal. This sheath of vapor is comparatively a bad conductor of heat, so that but little passes from the iron to the water. There is no commotion and the poker can be withdrawn still glowing brightly. No Use for Gold. A German barkeeper who has been in the United States about five years in all that time had never seen a $5 gold piece. A clerk who had received one of these golden coins as part of his pay, entered the saloon which is presided over by the German and called for a glass of beer. Upon receiving the foaming beverage he tendered in payment the glistening $5 coin, which hit the bar with a merry jingle. The bartender, after surveying the piece and examining it critically tossed it back to the government clerk with the childlike and bland remark: "Ve don't take medals for beer here You will have to take that to the 'hock shop.'" Reason In All Things. Angus Smith, president of the Oldsmobile company, tells of a friend who is an automobile enthusiast, but who does not always keep his temper when misfortunes befall. On one occasion he punctured a tire, and when he discovered the extent of the damage he remarked: "That's hell." His wife remonstrated with him, and he argued it out this way: "A puncture is a trifle, a trifle is a scrap, and a scrap is a fight, and a fight is a battle, and a battle is war, and Gen. Sherman said that war is hell. Therefore a puncture, especially ten miles from home or a repair shop, is hell." Choate's Pretty Compliment. Joseph H. Choate, who is soon to be succeeded by Whitelaw Reid as minister to the court of St. James, has established a reputation in England for always saying the right thing at the right time. This facility was demonstrated at a London banquet where, as is more often the case over there than here, the gallery of the hall was filled with women. Mr. Choate arose to make his first speech as ambassador. Looking about him, or rather above him, he began with: "Now I know what the scripture phrase means when it is written, 'Thou madest man a little lower than the angels.'" You cheat yourself when you put off until to-morrow what you ought to do to-day. THE STATESMAN, DENVER, COLORADO. REGISTER HERE Inquiries for help and coming to us and frequent ory answers.

Work will be offered for three classes of students in this department: First, students whose interests are purely industrial, second, students whose interests are primarily in the academic work, and third, postgraduate normal students who wish to combine the industrial and academic work. Students of the second class will be required to devote five days of each week to normal work, and one day to industrial employment. The various courses will be taught by specialists thoroughly competent, and Tuskegee Institute with its complete material equipment in every department thus affords superior advantages for young men and women wishing to prepare themselves for literary and industrial teachers, and for such teachers desiring to take advanced work.

THE STATESMAN, DENVER, COLORADO. Mrs. T. W. Ashford and children left Wednesday for an extended visit in St. Louis James Smith, E. F. Landor and wives and Mrs. Rose Price composed a very pleasant tallyho party to the mountains last Sunday. A very jolly party, consisting of Rev. J. C. Bell, Messrs. Chas. Lucas, C. Mitchell, Will Lucas and T. E. Gray, took a trip to Table Mountain last Friday. Trout fishing was the order of the day, and the were fortunate enough to catch about sixty of the speckled beauties. Rev. Bell of the A. M. E. Church was successful in the rally last Sunday and as a result of the effort the church will soon be able to pay off the indebtedness on the parsonage. The ladies under the captaincy of Mrs. C. G. Ashiord were successful in raising $67.75, and the men under E. F. Landor. $40. The open meeting of the AfroAmerican Women's Club was held at the residence of Mrs. T. E. Gray Thursday evening of last week. This organization has taken up the study of Shakespeare and the past two months have devoted to the study of The Merchant of Venice. The President, Mrs. C. G. Ashford, distinguished herself in an admirable manner with a thorough synopsis of the play. Mrs. T. E. Gray conducted a general review with quotations, At the conclusion of the program a lunch eon was served. ROCK SPRINGS, WYO. A few years ago a Baptist Church was organized here and run success fully for about two months and it disbanded. Last September another Baptist minister came and he reorganized the church which lasted nearly six weeks. Then there was a rally day and he and the cash dropped out of sight. The conduct of these churchmen has caused the people to lose confidence and for that reason the young A. M. E. minister, who is now with us has a hard road to undergo in establishing a mission, although he has proven himself to be a gentleman of unimpeachable character and broad knowledge. Had the presiding elder of the district visited this place when the young man came here, the mission would be in a more prosperous condition.

How Ingenious Woman Insures Safety In the Morning. in tne Morning. An Augusta hotel is more or less {n- fested with rats, and naturally the rats have a love for the department where the food is prepared. The help is largely feminine, and while none of them has any fellow feeling for the rodents, there is one who stands in mortal fear of them. She, with the others, occupies rooms on the floor above, and one of the hardest hours of the day is when she gets up in the morning and makes her way to the kitchen. She had rath- er meet old Nick himself than a rat, and she also feels that she is Mable, on going downstairs, to meet one on every step. Therefore, in order to Prevent anything of the kind, she has provided a means of averting it that {s simple, yet effective. On her trunk, within reach of the bed, she keeps ten or twelve tin lard pail covers and when in the morning she has donned her raiment she care fully opens the door of her room and, taking a,cover, lets it go down the stairs. The rattle of the tin on the stairs gives her courage, and with the other covers in her hand she starts down the stairs. When she has descended two or three stairs she iets go another cover and makes another advance, This goes on until she has reached the foot of the stairs, when, after opening the kitchen door very carefully, she throws the remaining covers across the floor or up againat the range. By this time she has convinced her- self that not a rat is left in the kitch- en, and with a sigh of relief she be- gins her day’s work.—Kennebec Jour nal. Women and Higher Education. Airs, Ellen Spenosr Mussey, dean of the Washington college of law, said in the course of an Interesting address delivered on the occasion of the eighth annual banquet of that Institution In Washington the other day “The time was when woman, like the giraffe, was quite content with what she found in her purely domestic pasture, but dur- tng the last fifty years she has begun to reach up for the leaves of knowl edge that grow on the tallest palm trees, until at last she aspired not only to study law but to have a college of law created primarily for her, as all other colleges of law had been created primarily for men, but she has gener- ously held out a hospitable hand to her brother in the law. There has never been any question about wom- an’s right to labor with her hands, but directly she wishes to be a brain worker or to be trained as one, then {gs the time that she is in danger. Somebody has defined a brain worker as a man who spends all he makes trying to live up to the position he holds, but that is not the kind of brain worker we graduate from Washington college of law. To succeed we must adjust efforts to obstacles. It is no shame to fall, but to stay down—~in that lies defeat.” Speaking of Parts. “My hair,” sald the soubrette, “bas a natural part,” “And the other part,” rejoined the low comedian, “1s false, 1 presume,” All who complain about hard times and do not try to succeed cheat them- selves. + The Social Life of the Puebloans Ed Vest and family have moved to 912 W.17th St. J.

Bills by the Handfuls Handed Out to Visitor in Chicago for a $20 Gold Piece—Prices to Stagger the Uninitiated. The Very Rev. Dean Harris tells of the peculiar money scale of Nicaragua. When the civil war in the United States was drawing to an end, confederate bills were worth from five to ten cents a dollar, he writes. It meant to the public that all hope for Southern currency ever being redeemed was practically dead. When I visited the large markets in this city the amount of money and the figures on the bank bills surprised me. Bills of big denominations were passing from buyer to seller, from hand to hand, and no change asked or given. I began to inquire the prices ruling the stalls. "Quainto vale"—how much, I said, pointing to the measure of potatoes. "Six dollars," the woman in the stall answered. "O, no, senor, for a litro"—a quart. The price staggered me. Rice was $5 a pound, onions four, flour $6 a quart, and everything else in proportion. We pay our butchers a pretty stiff price for meat in Toronto, but compared with prices here, it is ridiculously cheap. A sirloin steak at the Leon market costs $19 per pound, and a turkey $160. But everyone carries piles of bills here; their pockets are bulging with them. While in the market I frequently saw the vendors of fruit pull from their pockets rolls of bills as large and round as a stein, and begin to count off wads of twenties and fifties till I marveled at their wealth. Among the farmers, it is said that money is so plentiful that it is kept in large boxes. Silver is rarely seen, and small coins are unknown. The small farmers and peons of the surrounding country when they come here to buy carry their money in small bags or baskets. My bill at the restaurant for dinner was $200, and a Panama hat cost me $600. For a carriage for one hour I was asked, and paid, $30; and so for anything else in proportion. I have not yet paid my hotel account, but I expect to be asked, and to pay, $2,000. All this would have been heart-breaking if I had not called at the bank on my arrival here. For a $20 gold piece I asked for change in the currency of the country. The teller looked at my gold coin, weighed it in his hand, put it to one side, and began carelessly counting bills with the rapidity for which these young men all over the world are famous. I waited patiently, watching rolls pile up, and hoping when he was through he'd attend to me. You can't hurry cashiers, so I sat down until he got through. Now, I thought, he'll count me out change. Presently, he opened the hinged wicket, called me over, and said politely in Spanish: "Your change, senor!" "How much, sir!" I asked him. "Two thousand dollars, sir." I borrowed from him a newspaper, rolled up my money, and went to my hotel.—Toronto Mall and Fannie You cheat yourself to a great degree when you do not get your own education. THE STATESMAN. DENVER.

Fashionable families year by year are edging away from New York's old conservatism in respect of liveries for their servants, and ere the passing of the present decade Manhattan's streets may blossom with flunkies in scarlet coats, sky-blue knee breeches, white silk stockings and all the flummery characteristic of the British capital in its most ostentatious period. "Silent" Smith's footmen appeared in small clothes for his house warming recently, and now it is on the carpet that Mrs. "Jack" Astor will outshine the multi-millionaire bachelor by having all the manservants in her establishment in liveries more elaborate than anything seen here since the British evacuation. The young matron is not yet prepared to go to the length of making her Jeemses and Inneries powder their hair, but those who know her best say it would not astonish them if she did advance even to that degree of magnificence. Of course, the stately butler who presides over the social destinies of 840 Fifth avenue, will not condescend to display his calves, even to please his beautiful young mistress. For him, impressive dignity in dress as everything else. Perhaps, though, he will consent to wear for the bigger dinners his decoration from the Ancient and Honorable Order of Former Ducal Retainers. Society women say there's nothing like the Astor luck.—New York Press. TRAINING OF FRENCH CHILD. English Writer Points Out Differences in Home Life. Let me take Felice Boulanger (which isn't her name) as a typical French child of my experience, gained after nearly three years' residence in France. She is one of five children ranging in age from her brother of 16 to the youngest girl of 6. Felice has a skil like the sheen of a pearl, (which is marvelous considering the amount of indigestible food she bolts five times a day); big, deer-like eyes, long lashed; daintily shaped but seldom clean hands; a thin, rasping, and petulant voice even in her merriest mood, and a physique like that of, a starved and homeless cat—narrow chested, spider legged, and staminaless generally. Yet she seems full of vitality—nervous, irritable vitality—eats as much food as an English navy, and certainly has, as my American lady friend says, "heaps of sense." But to see the child eating is painful, though interesting in a way. An English girl of 11 years of age, like Felice, would be sent to bed at, say, 9 o'clock. Felice and her type and her younger sisters sit down to dinner at 6:30 p. m. and stay up until 11 or later, listening to the conversation of their elders.—Louis Becke in the London Mail.

"Yes," said the gray mustached merchant, "my wife always takes personal interest in the selection of a typewriter girl for my private office. She tests their ability and passes judgment on them. The other day there were two candidates for the vacancy and my wife examined both of them in spelling. To the first girl she put such words as disinterestedness, and a lot more jawbreakers, and, of course, the girl missed several of 'em and had to take her hat and go. To the other girl my wife gave words like cat, hat, mat and bat and the other girl stood the test triumphantly." "But that wasn't exactly fair, was it?" the listener inquired. "It was from my wife's point of view. You see, the first girl was very pretty, and the other girl was very plain." Cleveland Plain Dealer. --- I and Scientific) and professional life.

Mine owners of South Africa, who have been importing coolies from China to work underground, have discovered that there are great differences between the coolies from the south of China and those from the north of China. A very little experience sufficed to show that the men from the northern districts were of better physique and of better knowledge of mining than those who came from the south and the treaty ports. They are seeking now to get their recruits solely from the northern sections of the empire. PASTE JEWELS. An honest man is the easiest thing on earth to work.

Negro Leaders Ought Not Be Purely Selfish Barnum, the great showman once said that the American people liked to be faked and the truth of that statement is certainly evident in this city. On last Saturday there appeared in this paper an article which discussed the grievances which the Negroes of the state and more especially of this city are giving vent to, and ending by saying that it was up to the "leaders" to guide the lost ones out into the promised land. Few issues of this paper have been more warmly commended and it is of that we would speak. There is a growing number of our people who recognize that we will advance only by intelligent effort and all these are ready to assist in improving matters. But there is still a great majority who complain and that is all. They have the faith but not the works. Let us all hope that they will progress in works and finally become living stones in the great structure the race is building. Unfortunately for the good efforts of the one class and the good intentions of the other, there remains a third class, few in number, but thoroughly unscrupulous and selfish. We refer to the small corterie of Negroes who profess great influence in THE STATESMAN, DENVER, COLORADO.

Both by report and from his own lips we have the commendation of J. D. D. Rivers of the Colorado Statesman. By his own profession a "leader" of his people and having a paper through which he can speak, in all reason it would seem that Rivers would give voice to the same sentiment especially as he devoted his paper to the success of the present office holders and made promises in their names It was only a year ago when he was an appointive officer under City Auditor Barton then a republican. He supported the election of Springer for mayor and with him the republican ticket in the beginning of the campaign. Later he raised the civic banner and under it said: "The above candidates are all good men and will fill their office with credit when elected." From this and from the fact that he was a candidate for reappointment under Wilson, a democrat, he hardly seems to be such a s'rict party man that he cannot now criticise the short comings of the county officials. Let us seek the motive in his past career, and in that which is so recent that he may fairly be judged by it. Though a number of the leading citizens sacrificed their time and some even money in the election of Mr. Keely to the school board because A Grand Picnic Columbine Court No. 279. I.0.0.C.

He went further and refused when the election was over to join in representing to the board of education the fairness of the proposition. Had he stopped here it might be said that he is ignorant. But later when on credible authority we find he was one of those who went to the length of saying that it was an attempt to inaugurate separate schools—a gratuitous falsehood of the Simon pure type—it is clear that not race advancement but personal profit is his creed and that he does not mix them. As usual he is up for office and is silent not to jeopardize his chances for appointment at the county jail by criticism but is very willing to have somebody else shake the tree that he may gather the fruit. In this he is typical of his class. They do not ask a square deal but that "me and my wife, my son John and his wife, these four and no more," may be taken care of. This paper is willing to fight for the race's rights and is willing to serve as a spring board for someone to leap into office but we do insist that a real race man use us, not some one with a black skin whose whole talents are used in serving white politicians and in no way benefit the people he claims to represent. Petty vice is mote dangerous than the more virulent kind because it is more insidious. Of this type is policy playing. It only requires a moment to convince one that it does not pay the player for there is no form of gambling unless it is the "sure thing" kind that will make a profit for the operators and also pay 20 per cent to a middle man. Yet this is what policy does. The habit of spending small change on policy has assumed such proportions among our Denver people that the church even furnishes patrons. Religion and morality are irreconcilable with gambling and those who have slipped over into policy playing would do well to consider their action both as to the effect on their own character and the example they set. The Denver policy magnates have come to be considered as bankers and to hear the players dilate upon their winnings, none ever paid better. Yet, strange as it may se m, poor whites and ill dressed Negroes are the majority of patrons and if the game pays, they certainly do not show it. The city authorities ought in protection to these poor unfortunates who are too weak and foolish to protect themselves, close up these shops wherein women and men and even children congregate. The pulpit will do well to take up the matter and see that representations are made that will enlist the law on the side of decency and morality. Given by
