The Union Meeting and Praise service at the Second Baptist Church Wednesday evening, was a success. The pastor, Rev. Walter Brannon, opened the service with a few well chosen remarks, and very fittingly ad monished the members of the two churches to hereafter co-work in a spirit of unity and brotherly love. Prayer was offered by H. C. Jefferson and the congregation joined in singing, "O, How I Love Jesus." Rev. State Historian & Natural History Society STA THE COLORED PEOPLE IN COLORADO DENVER, COLOR OF HERN GHBORS DENVER, COLORADO, FRIDAY, OCT. 13, 1905. Greenlee was introduced, and for a few moments delivered an eloquent discourse. At this juncture, the meeting was turned over to the members and friends of the churches, and pray or testimony and song was so harmoniously indulged in that the hearts of all were made to rejoice, and with one accord the exclamation went up 'It is good to be here.' Similar services will be held frequently and the two pastors hope in this way to bind the people so close together that satan and all his hosts will find little opportunity for their activity. James E. Smith and wife have bought from Joseph Palmer a very cosy home on West 22nd St., and will occupy the same on or about the first of November. Minerva and Geneva, the two very sweet little daughters of Rev. Greenlee, have come here from Salt Lake, Utah, and already by their loving dispositions and good manners, have endeared themselves to the hearts of the people. James Gaskin has returned to the city after an absence of a month. He is rapidly securing a goodly share of this world's goods by successfully conducting a livery and feed barn, and the sale of horses and cattle. Rev. W. E. Helm of Denver, filled the pulpit at the Second Baptist Church last Sunday for both morning and evening services. This worthy visitor distinguished himself in a manner that places him among those who are eminently fitted to expound the gospel. He was accompanied by J. J. Manuel who in the evening at 6 o'clock, delivered a masterly lecture on the "Perils That Confront the Negro." Mrs. Birthwright is suffering from nervous collapse. H. H. Voss, exdeputy Grand Master of the G. U. O. O. F. is expected in the city soon. Mrs. Sam Jones is suffering with rheumatism this week. Rev. Taylor says that Bethel Baptist Church is alive spiritually. A series of meetings is being conducted at Shaffer Chapel by the pastor, Rev, Taylor, and the members will join in to fight the battle to the gate. Mrs. Lucas and Wm Burnside attended the fair in Helena last week, and report a good time. H. E. Fletcher has purchased a ranch 9 miles from the city, where he will conduct a poultry and stock farm. Mrs. J. Bullette has returned after a two month's visit on the coast. Mr. and Mrs. Icem of Anaconda, are the guests of Rev. and Mrs. Parsons. They are enroute to Seattle, where they will locate. Everyone who went to Zion Church Thursday night laughed. A comical program under the direction of Miss Lillian Hawkins was presented. How funny it was can be known from the fact that Revs. Ford and Douglass sang. No other feature could possi- BUTTE, MONT CITY NEWS. NO.70 bly come up to this, but nevertheless it was all good. Mrs. Gertrude Hill is confined to bed on account of illness. Mr. Gabriel Savage has purchased a modern house at 2024 Washington ave. Miss Eva Jones has been in Colorado Springs for a few days. She returned home Thursday. On account of difference between the partners in the conduct of the business, L. L. McManan has been appointed by the district court as temporary manager of the Ideal Pharmacy. It is as ready as ever to serve the public anything in the drug line. Every detail of the store is being kept up and the best of drugs and service is the rule as formerly. Miss Birdie Roy and Robert Phynix were united in marriage Thursday. They will make their home at 1351 Court Place. Through the dancing school of which he is manager, he has a wide circle of friends who wish them well. About twenty members and friends of Campbell Church gladdened the hearts of the pastor and wife by the way of a surprise. Friday night when the hous began to grow wearisome a knock come the door and in a few moments the table was groaning under the heavy load. The kind of boosting that counts is that which impels you to say a good word for the struggling members of the race who may not be as fortunate as yourself, that causes you to reach out a helping hand to them, that makes you put up a harder fight against the obstacles that impede your progress toward a fuller life and higher character. The self satisfied and complacent Negro is a real hindrance to the race no matter how high he may be up in the social scale. There is too much work to be done to permit laggards. CALLED FOR MUCH SACRIFICE. Damsel of Fashion Suffered for Sake of Portrait. A young woman well known in New York and London society is at present going through what she regards as a most painful ordeal. Some time ago John S. Sargent consented to paint her portrait, and by way of preparation he told her to buy a dress of rich brown velvet. She did so, and Mr. Sargent expressed himself as pleased with the costume. "Just wear the dress every day for a month," he said, "so as to get the effect of newness off. Then I will start the portrait." This to the daughter of a multi-millionaire who is accustomed to wearing the same costume at the most half a dozen times? The great artist was deaf to all protests, and, confronted with the choice of wearing the dress as directed or going without a Sargent portrait, the young woman consented to do as she was asked. She regards herself as a heroine.—New York Times. About the Sultan of Morocco. It is not generally known that all Mohammedans must learn a trade, no matter what their rank, according to the sura, in the Koran, which enjoins, "Teach every man a handicraft so that he will not be a burden to any man." Abdul Aziz, the sultan of Morocco, when a boy, was taught the trade of a saddler. The sultan of Turkey is an expert locksmith. The sultan of Morocco also delights in billiards and boxing, and may be described as an all-round sportsman. Although he has only one wife, etiquette demands that he should keep an army of lady attendants in his palace, and the sultan contrives to mitigate the ennui of their existence by providing almost every kind of European toy and invention for their amusement. Considerate Society Women. Society women in the town of Haparanda, in Sweden, have decided to relieve men of the necessity of doffing their hats to women in the streets as long as the cold weather lasts. The cheerful idiot was gazing at the high wall surrounding the prison. "What is that little box on top of the wall?" he queried of an innocent bystander. "That," replied the party of the other part, "is the watch tower. "Oh, of course," rejoined the c. i. with a flendish grin, "I might have known that it was too small for a clock tower." Dogs Draw Traveling Preacher. Rev. F. E. Higgins, the logging camp Presbyterian missionary of northern Minnesota, travels all over the timber region of the state with a dog sled. Mr. Higgins weighs over 200 pounds, but his dogs have hauled him forty miles in six and a half hours. Sometimes he makes a journey of 20 miles in the dead of winter through the forests and sleeps between his dogs, all three covered by a blanket. Dog Makes Long Trip. A long trip was made by a dog owned by Roy Spaugh of Looking glass, Douglas county, Oregon. It was taken to Crook county, Oregon, last September by C. H. Spaugh. The dog returned home to Looking glass, arriving on Dec. 9. THE STATESMAN, DENVER, COLORADO. GHOT A WHITE WHALE. Entered English Salmon Net and Was Shot by a Fisherman. correspondent of the London Daily Graphic says: A specimen of that somewhat rare cetacean, the white whale, or beluga, actually entered a salmon net recently at Naburn near York, in the river Ouse, some thirty-five miles or so from the sea. It made short work of the salmon net, but one of the fishermen loaded a gun and fired at the unfortunate whale. On the following day it was found stranded in shallow water at Cawood, not far from Selby. It was then hauled up on to a lorry and exhibited round the countryside by its captors. It weighed ten hundred weight, measured a little over 11 feet in length, and the expense of the tail was 2 feet 8 inches. It was a beautiful creamy white color when I saw in and I propped open its jaws with a stick. It had evidently come up so far from the sea in pursuit of the salmon. According to "Bell," in the White Sea it is very common, and a regular fishery is carried on in the spring and summer at Solza, near the mouth of the river Dvina. It possesses no dorsal fin, and, like most members of the family, it is gregarious, sporting, feeding and migrating in herds of moderate humbers. Its skin affords very useful leather, and its blubber yields oil of excellent quality. Its flesh is said to be much valued in Greenland. In the quaint language of Egede, "It has no bad taste, and when marinated with vinegar and salt, it is as well tasted as any pork whatever; The fins also and the tail, pickled or sauced, are very good eating; so that he is very good cheer." Comfort in Cold Winter. "I don't keer fer no coal trust now. "How come?" "Well, do new preacher say he gwin preach 'bout hell fire all de winter."- Atlanta Constitution. Phone Main 5349. B. F.

Mrs. Hattie Hogue, 1123 Welton St VERNE'S SIMPLE LIFE POPULAR WRITER IN NO SENSE A MONEY SEEKER. Assured of a Moderate Income, He Was Satisfied to Give the World the Best of Which He Was Capable Lesson in His Life. The death of Jules Verne, at the age of seventy-seven years, will be felt as a personal loss by millions of readers throughout the world, for some of his stories have been translated so widely that he may be said to have had, in the true sense of the expression, an international audience. Living for the most part away from the hurry and bustle of affairs, yet by occasional travel or visit keeping in touch with them—though careful not to be absorbed thereby—Jules Verne worked on steadily, year after year, earning money sufficient for his needs, accomplishing his literary purpose, enjoying personally a normally, sane existence which, to onlookers, seemed to approach the ideal for an author. Quite recently, referring to the estate left by the late Lew Wallace, we mentioned the general understanding that it was derived principally from the book and dramatic royalties of a single work of fiction. The reverse is true of Jules Verne, who, if current gossip be accepted, contracted nearly forty years ago to produce two books a year receiving for each one the equivai t of $2,000. A question that at once suggests itself is whether Gen. Wallace would have striven, year after year, to write other and even better books than that which made him famous had he sold this one outright for a comparatively small sum, and whether Jules Verne would have continued his marvelous productiveness had he received a considerable fortune in royalties from any of his first books. This, of course, is a question not to be answered definitely. Under the spur of financial need Gen. Wallace might have written a long list of excellent books. Furthermore had Jules Verne been enriched in his early thirties through sales of his first "scientific" novel, "Five Weeks in a Balloon," it is possible that the world might never have had its "Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea," or "Around the World in Eighty Days." But those who have been interested by Verne's wonderfully ingenious tales do not like to think of such a possibility. To them he was energy personified, the father of invention realized, an ever-bubbling, sparkling, joyous fountain of youthful spirits and hope, even in old age. That he worked well under arrangement with a publisher whereby he received a moderate but regular income his career attests, and he is not alone in this. One of the most successful of American writers for boys—at least from the boys' standpoint, and from the publisher's—worked under similar contract for nearly a generation, excepting that he received $1,000 for each book produced. We fancy that some of the younger American writers—yachting in the Mediterranean, speeding along Fifth avenue in a $10,000 motor car, building castles in Newport, Spain, and elsewhere—may think of Jules Verne as doubtless they have thought of Milton; or, if they never heard of "Paradise Lost," as they have thought of Hawthorne, Thoreau, Emerson. One can imagine them saying, with a sympathetic shake of the head, "Poor old chap! Grinding away nearly sixty years for a beggarly four thou'! Wonder why the dickens he didn't try 'ad.' writing or put the blacksmith jokes together for the ten-twent'-thirt' shows. They pay pretty well." It might be worth while for these young persons to reflect that Jules Verne and some of the others mentioned, were of such caliber that they did not have to possess fortunes in order to be great men as well as highly successful writers.--New York Sun. A Fine Variety. 'I was eating my supper the other evening in a little Kentucky hotel, said A. B. Conway, at the Willard hotel last night, "when a neatly dressed country girl, who was waiting on the table, came up and asked if I would have dessert. I inquired what kind of dessert she had, and she replied: 'We have pie.' " 'We have three kinds—open-top, cross-barred and kivered, but they are all apple,' she said, apparently very proud of having so wide a variety for me to select from."—Louisville Courier-Journal.

On Sunday the People's Sunday Alliance took up the publication which appeared in the Mornings News concerning the complaint made by Denver University against the use of a colored player by the Agricultural College on its football team.

I was up at Harrisburg the other day," continued the Pennsylvanian, "and some smart citizen asked me about the fence around the capitol grounds at Washington.

Color in Football. Personal contact is one of the reasons given by Denver University for its unwillingness to play in foot ball games against teams which have colored men on them. Would to heaven this new found prejudice against the touch of a Negro had extended for all the years the race was in slavery or even existed now in so far as it would help out morally. The truth is that the competition of Negroes is done away with in all cases where it is possible by an appeal to color prejudice. The southern white man says that education spoils a field hand, the northernwhite man fears contamination either for himself or his kin, when neither is true. If Johnson on the Agricultural College team, Roberts and Jackson for Colorado College were a source of weakness and not strength there would be no objection to their color. We will go through the hardest time in our history in this country during the next few years. Like a child which has just begun to trust its own powers to walk, there will be many a fall. But we can make good and must count obstacles to progress, as an athlete does training—the means to an end.

ODD PLAN OF ENGINEER$ Bridge That Has Neither Footpath Nor Roadway. An odd bridge has recently been completed across the River Mersey, connecting the towns of Widnes and Runcorn. Its peculiarity lies in the fact that the bridge possesses neither footpath nor roadway for vehicular traffic. Instead the bridge is provided with a car accommodating four wagons and 300 passengers at one time, and this car makes trips across the river as often as the traffic requires. From steel towers 160 feet in height stretches a track held up on the suspension principle, and the car makes the passage some eighty feet above the surface of the river. This peculiar form is used to overcome the necessity for building lengthy approaches on either side of the river in order that the shipping may not be obstructed, and the passengers are taken on at the water's edge, the car being lowered to a landing station. A bridge adjoining requires a trip a quarter of a mile inland in order that the grade of the incline may not be too heavy, and this newer bridge is designed to avoid that delay. LADIES! A RULES FOR LONG LIFE. Do not set an impossible ideal of life. It results in disappointment, and that ages. Cultivate a serene mental attitude, and develop a capacity for deliberate enjoyment of whatever is at hand. The greatest pleasure often comes from little things easily and often overlooked. Avoid every excess. Do not overwork, overplay, overeat, overdrink or oversmoke, or allow yourself to become overinactive. Do not assume obligations that you can not discharge. This is the secret not only of much physical but of much moral and mental disaster. Study your diet and your hours of labor, sleep and relaxation, and conform to your constitutional requirements. Take particular precaution to preserve by daily actions the elasticity of all of the tissues. Maintain self respect, avoid sordidness and gloom, and "grow old gracefully."—Teachers' Sanitary Bulletin. SELLING OLD "DUDS." SELLING OLD "DUDS." GIRL EASY VICTIM OF WILES OF OLD CLOTHES MAN. According to Fair New Yorker He Had the Art of Disparagement Down Fine—Made Her Ashamed of Her Lack of Taste. "If you want to realize how really cheap and mean you are, and what an awful figure you cut in the clothes you wear, and what bad taste you have, and a few other things that it is good for you to know," said a New York woman, "just try to dispose of some of your old clothes to a professional old clothes man." "Oh, I never could," said the girl from Jersey. "I'd like to know why you couldn't," remarked the other scathingly. "Do you fancy you are too good or too respectable? Why, Mrs. Astor does it! Mrs. Vanderbilt and the old clothes man are hand in glove. He told me so himself. He showed me a cotton velveteen dress that she sold him only last week. Yes, indeed; and you've no idea how scornful and how gorgeous he is. "I had a lot of last year's garments that I had outgrown—not that I'm getting fat, my dear, so don't look at me with pity in your eyes; 160 is not fat. Well, I had been seeing all sorts of advertisements in the papers about 'highest prices' given for cast-off clothing. They all seemed so anxious to pay out their money that I decided to get rid of my clothes in a lump. I couldn't select among them, all were so full of golden offers. So I just shut my eyes and put my finger on one, and I sent that one a postal card telling him to call. "He came early the next morning—and really, my dear, he was so gorgeous and smart and beautiful in his silk hat and Prince Albert coat that I wanted to run when he caught me in my kimono, with my bangs done up in wiggers. "Alas! my dear. Do you remember that mink jacket I felt so proud of last winter?" "The one with the frogs and the cut steel buttons?" asked the girl from Jersey. "Yes. Well, would you believe it? Though I gave a cool hundred for it, that fur wasn't real; and it must have been moth-eaten when I got it; and, although I thought it very smart, I assure you it was quite out of date—at least, it was beside Mrs. Vanderbilt's cotton velveteen gown, so the old clothes man assured me; and, if you had ever seen him, you couldn't have doubted his word. "And my $40 foulard was a mere rag, scarcely worth fixing over. "And that French hat I paid $28 for was a complete bit of bunco-steering on the part of the milliner. Why, the ostrich feathers on it weren't even off an ostrich, but just made of cotton. "And you should have seen the fine scorn with which he glanced over all my silk petticoats and my last winter's suit and relegated them to the rags. "And then what do you suppose he offered me? Five dollars for the lot!" "And what did you do?" asked the sympathetic girl from Jersey. "Well, I was so ashamed of those disgraceful garments, and so impressed with the idea of my own frightful bad taste that I accepted it to get rid of them, and went out and bought a collarette." THE STATESMAN. DENVER. COLORADO. "You silly girl!" "And, oh, I forgot to tell you, the old clothes man suggested that I come right down to his shop and spend that $5. He felt sure I should be charmed with Mrs. Vanderbilt's cotton velveteen gown."—New York Press. MICROBES FOR FIELD MICE. French Scientist Has a Means of Exterminating the Pest. The pest of field mice has been growing in some of the rural districts of France until it has reached such a stage that the government has taken action, and a novel and highly scientific method of killing the mice has been resorted to. Poison was tried at first, but it was found that it was eaten, with fatal effect, by domestic animals as well as the mice. Dr. Danysz of the Pasteur institute made some experiments with microbes which are fatal to mice, some years ago, and discovered a bug which kills them, but is not fatal to domestic animals. The government has taken this up and appropriated a good-sized sum of money to distribute cultures of this microbe throughout the infested district. The cultures will be sent into the country, where a small quantity of salt water will be mixed with them, and then oats soaked in the liquid. This grain will be distributed in the fields, and it is said that the disease thus scattered spreads rapidly and 95 per cent die within ten days. In Kansas After the War. After the civil war a Boston man was stopping at the Planters' house the principal hotel of Leavenworth, Kan., and coming down to breakfast late one morning he partook of that meal with the landlord. "Well, Mr. ——," said the landlord, "how do you like our western country?" "I like it very well," said the Boston man, "or would if society here were in a more settled state." "Nonsense," said the landlord, "our society is as settled as that of Boston." Just then a man named Anthony burst into the dining-room and out of a back door, with a man named Jennison pumping lead at him at every jump, and following him out into the outbuilding in the rear of the hotel. "How about society being as settled here as in Boston?" said the Boston man as he and the landlord crawled out from under opposite sides of the table. "I had forgotten about that Anthony Jennison matter," said the landlord; "but if Doc Jennison has caught up with Anthony that is settled by this time."—Boston Herald. Worms in Millions. The sciaras, of the genus tipulx, tiny, wormlike creatures which are found in the forests of Norway and Hungary during the month of July or early in August gather in huge numbers preparatory to migrating in search of food or for a change of conditions. When setting out on this journey they stick themselves together by means of some glutinous matter, and form a huge serpentlike mass, often reaching a length of between forty and fifty feet and several inches in thickness. As the sciara is only on an average of about three thirty-seconds of an inch in length, with no appreciable breadth whatever, the number required to form a continuous line of the size above mentioned is incalculable.

TUSKEGEE INSTITUTE The Postgraduate Normal Course of the Tuskegee Normal and industrial Institute will be extended to two years beginning with the opening of the next school term, September 12, 1905, and will comprise a much broader scope of work than heretofore. 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.

A Pest That Riddles Our Lettuce Beds —How to Send It Flying. In the spring, the very first chance we get, we sow lettuce and radish seed, and then "sit up nights" to see the seedlings appear, says the Garden Magazine. Oh, joy! The ground is crackling, and, joy again, the tiny seed-leaves appear. Aren't they strong and lusty? Did we ever have any quite so promising before? Surely nothing can happen to them; we made their bed so soft and deep and gave them so much to eat. Then "woe is me," some morning we go out to look at them before breakfast and they are lacework—just riddled with tiny holes as though the fairies had been having target practice or a schutzenfest during the night. We look closely, and find tiny black creatures all over them; a touch on the leaves and they jump away—the black flea-beetle has arrived. What shall we do? "Poison the leaves?" One should always be afraid the leaves may not be thoroughly washed before they are served at the table. Still it must be done. There are two things that the experts tell us to do to rid the plant of them—spray with Bordeaux mixture, or dust with powdered tobacco. Some there are who compound a decoction of both. Last year we dusted our plants with fine coal ashes in the early morning when the dew was on the leaves, and sent these creatures flying. Dusting with air-slacked lime, land plaster or paris green and flour are other methods used successfully. Sanitariums for Plants. The latest in New York is sanitariums for plants. They are to be found in the uptown neighborhoods where families are in the habit of going away for the summer, boarding up their houses and dispensing with the services of a caretaker. Many of these families do not hesitate to leave the cats that have protected their houses from mice all winter to find either their living in the streets or strangulation in the pound when the house is closed for the summer; but they would never dream of leaving their pet plants to starve. Fashionable florists do not like the term "boarding places for plants." The signs in their windows read "sanitariums for plants." Limit to Their Credulity. Kansas editors are skeptical. An exchange asked: "What do you think of an artist who painted cobwebs on a ceiling so naturally that the hired girl wore herself into an attack of nervous prostration trying to sweep them down?" Most of the editors say that there may have been such an artist, but there was never such a hired girl.—Kansas City Journal. HOW MARTHA GOT RELIGION. "Mammy's" Efforts of Great Assistance in the Case. I was seated one evening in the warehouse of a friend in the quaint old town of Newberne, North Carolina. On the opposite side of the street was an African church in which a revival meeting was being held. From the partiy opened windows came the sound of shouts and the usual melodies of the colored race. Suddenly the door opened and three young colored women emerged therefrom. The one in the middle was being supported by her companions on either side and her arms were swinging in the air, and as they walked along the street she shouted in wild emotion something that sounded like 'Got salvation! Foun' my Savior! Hol' onto my Lawd!" and was led away by her friends. Cleaning up the office in the corner of the warehouse was an old colored women. Turning to her I said: "Auntie, what is the matter with that girl?" "Why, bless your soul, chile!" Auntie responded quickly, "don't you know what's the matter with her? Why, she's got 'ligion! But she ain't got it half as bad as some people has. Had to hoi' my Marfa down for 'n hour and a half when she got it." I said: "Is that so Auntie? Did Martha keep it?" "Oh, yes, she's kept it; lost it once; but she got it again." "How did she get it again?" "Well, sir, I just done licked it into her."—"The Sunday Magazine." Meant for Wholesale Robbers. George W. Perkins tells this story of his last visit to California, when he drove out to inspect some magnificent orange groves. At one place the luscious fruit hung most temptingly from the branches, and Mr. Perkins was very anxious to pick and eat some of the oranges fresh from the trees. He was deterred, however, by a huge sign threatening the severest penalties of the law to any person caught picking oranges from the trees. Approaching one of the overseers, Mr. Perkins make known to him his longing wish to pick and eat an orange direct from the trees. "I don't want to get in any trouble, though," he added pointing to the sign. "Aw, don't pay no attention to that," was the contemptuous reply. "If you want to pick a few go ahead and do it. That sign is put there for those who drive up here and want to pick a load."—New York Times. Gold Mining in Japan. Since the beginning of the war the Japanese government has encouraged gold mining. The result has been over $5,000,000 worth of gold in Japan and nearly as much in Formosa. MOTOR WAGONS COME GREAT CHANGE IN TRANSPORTATION. The Electric Carriage Will Soon Be a Common Sight on the Country Roads —Last Year's Tests and This—The Gas Powers. The day when motor wagons will supplant the horse even in the country and over country roads is slowly coming. The London Times of Aug. 4 gives an account of the second annual series of trials of motor vehicles for heavy traffic, held that week at Liverpool by the Liverpool Self-Propelled Traffic association, which is interesting. These trials are gald to have indicated considerable progress in the construction of the automotor wagons since the first trials, which, it may be remembered, took place in the same place and under the same auspices in May of last year. The progress made in efficiency was evidenced by the fact that the "Leyland" vehicle which, with some slight modifications, was identical with the winner of the first prize last year, was this time adjudged worthy of a silver medal only, being bracketed in the receipt of this award with a vehicle entered by Messrs. Bayleys (limited), of Newington causeway. This year's highest awards—the gold medals of the two classes of entries—were won by the "Thornycroft" vehicles, which showed a vast improvement on the exhibits entered by the same makers last year. These makers, it should be noted—and, indeed, all those who have competed for the trials—employ steam as their motive power, generated by liquid fuel or coke. Electricity and oil motors have been unrepresented in either year, but this is partly accounted for by the fact that the limit of three tons fare imposed in England by the Light Locomotives act of 1896 puts all continental vehicles out of competition. Last year the tests were confined to the number of distance runs over two routes of about thirty miles each, but this year, whilst the same routes, which comprise many varieties of road, were again traversed, special hill climbing trials were introduced by which the efficiency of the competitors in ascending, descending, stopping and repairing on the most severe gradients likely to be met with in this country was subjected to the most searching tests. The course chosen for these hill climbing trials comprised gradients ranging from 1 in 22 to 1 in 9, there being no less than 52 yards of the latter, preceded by 25 yards of 1 in 10. Moreover, the roadway traversed, whilst including a stretch of macadam and another of impervious pavement, started with a section paved with the old style of sets and terminated in about 70 yards of boulders, the gradient at this end being 1 to 11. In short, it was the unanimous opinion of all who saw the route that no more severe test of hill-climbing capacity could have been chosen. Yet, with one exception, the six vehicles successfully negotiated the course, both empty and loaded; or were they embarrassed when, as a final test, the severest gradient was lightly sprinkled with water. Especially fine was the work done by the two "Thornycroft" wagons, the larger of which, described as a "steam lorry and trailer," carried its full load of six and a half tons to the top of the hill and down again without the slightest difficulty and at a good speed. The same two 9 THE STATESMAN, DENVER, COLORADO. vehicles were also conspicuously successful in the long distance runs, their average speed throughout being fully five miles an hour. The war office, the local government board, and several provincial corporations were represented at the trials, the arrangements of which were organized by Mr. E. Shrapnell Smith, the honorable secretary of the Liverpool Self-Propelled Traffic association. THINK THEMSELVES TO DEATH Thousands Said to End Lives by Morbid, Unhappy Thoughts. Thousands of people actually think themselves to death every year, says Suggestions, by allowing their minds to dwell on morbid subjects. The idea that one has some incipient disease in one's system, the thought of financial ruin, that one is getting on in life without improving prospects—any of these or a thousand similar thoughts may carry a healthy man to a premature grave. A melancholy thought that fixes itself upon one's mind needs as much doctoring as physical disease. It needs to be eradicated from the mind or it will have just the same result as a neglected disease would have. Every melancholy thought, every morbid action and every nagging worry should be resisted to the utmost and the patient should be protected by cheerful thoughts, of which there is a bountiful store in every one's possession. Bright companions are cheaper than drugs and plasters. The morbid condition of mind produces a morbid condition of body, and if the disease does happen to be in the system it receives every encouragement to develop. We need more mental therapy. BOX BEARDS THE LATEST. Europeans Have Novel Ideas for Whiskers and Mustaches. "The most remarkable whisker novelty," the barber said, "is to be found in France. Frenchmen for the last six months have been wearing box beards. A box beard is as square as a piece of carpentry, 9 inches long, 5 inches wide, 2 inches deep, every corner sharp and true and all the surfaces, upper and under and side, smoothed as if with a plane. "The box beard is neat and queer. It was introduced by the king of the Belgians. "The English have a new mustache—the butterfly. The butterfly is not more than two inches long. It is just a feathery little thing under the nose, with ends turning upward and inward. It has been adopted by all the young army officers. The king has stamped it with the stamp of his approval. "You will hardly believe it, but in Italy the patch is being worn. The Italian has his chin shaved smooth except for a tiny circular patch the size of a shirt stud, and in this patch he grows a little tuft of half inch long. It is as though the Italian had a mole there, but he has no mole really. The patch is just his coquetry." Notwithstanding her tender years, Catharine's characteristics are in evidence; and the most pronounced of them all is the unfailing tendency, in the most harrowing situations, to look on the bright side. On one occasion, having got hold of a hammer, she ambitiously endeavored to drive a tack into the wall. THE WESTERN COLLEGE The oldest Christian institution in the West.

There Is a Wealth of Coloring to Be Found In the Yellowstonas. Nature {s a most exquisite colorist Nowhere is her work more lovely than elong the crested rims and overflow ehannels of warm spring pools. Tour {sts are seldom aware that these har monious and brilliant tints owe their origin mainly to plant life. They are usually told by so-called guides that the colors are due to mineral mat ter, which tends to enhance their hor tor of underground waters.

It 1s said that ai about 140 degrees the conditions are favorable for the rapid growth of sey eral species. The development of plant life at such excessive tempera tures and on a scale of such magni tude seems a marvelous thing. No where else can this be seen as well as in the Yellowstone park.—Scribner's Monthly. HOLY LAND NOT LARGE. Great Events That Have Transpired In Smal! Space.

One thousand of these are located on the Atlantic coast, 1,500 are scattered along the rivers and Inland waterways, 600 on the great lakes and 200 on the Pacific coast.

HOW THEY ARE ANALYZED BY THE EXPERTS. How Handwriting Is Identified-The Examiner Makes His Deductions from Specimens Submitted-Not Always Accurate. When a piece of disputed or suspected handwriting is submitted to an expert, his first care is to note its general appearance. He observes what seems to be the characteristic habits of hand in the writer, the style, shading and connection of letters, their relation to the base line of the writing and other significant point. The same process is applied to specimen of the alleged writer's general hand, writes Daniel T. Ames in Ainslee's Magazine. The next step is to disintegrate the writing so that the letters repeated in both specimens may be compared in detail when placed side by side. In this way divergencies or resemblances, which might not appear to the eye in the body of a paper, are made perfectly clear. If any of the letters show signs of hesitation or retouching, as frequently happens in forgeries, they are photographed through the microscope. By this enlargement retouches or traces are brought out so that they can be seen plainly by the untrained eye. Having made his examination of the whole writing, step by step, the expert summarizes the results, numbering corresponding parts, and calling attention to discrepancies or resemblances as they occur. By this process his conclusions are made perfectly clear, in all ordinary cases, to anybody who reads his report. In exceptional circumstances, such as court trials, he may go before a jury with blackboard and pencil and show exactly how a forger wrote a certain letter, as well as the way in which the persons whose writing habitually formed it. If his deductions are accurate, the results, presented in this graphic manner, usually are convincing to all intelligent and unprejudiced observers. It is one of the advantages of graphology that, ordinarily, its conclusions may be made as plain as the nose on a man's face. Age of the Planet. One second in five hours represents, according to a German geologist, the short period of 6,000 years to which we can trace back the history of man as compared with the age of our planet as a solid body. Just a Harmless Diversion. Why should rainbow-chasing be so frowned on?

Bearer—So your landlady objected to Topnote and his chum singing duets in your apartment? Bearer—Yes, she told me my room was better than my company.—New York Times. 2 THE STATESMAN, DENVER, COLORADO. Whoever inspired the epigram, "Beware of the sincerity of too fashionable mourning," it certainly applied to a youthful widow seen on Broadway a few days ago. Gowned in the habiliments of deepest mourning, wearing a long crepe veil which nearly swept the ground, and exhibiting a costume with "Paris' written all over it, with sad brown eyes she looked plaintively out as if in protest that the world should still move or that any one should be happy when she was not. But the effect of the soulful glance was marred by the co in her cheeks which nature never gave, and by the fat, pudgy pug which she carried beneath her arm, its head resting on a chic muff of ruffled crepe. The crepe, the paint and the pug seemed to impress all beholders alike, and with one accord youth and old age stopped deliberately and watched the progress of the sad eyed widow down the street.—New York Sur. An Anglo-American Incident. This story is told by J. P. Carter, of the American embassy in London. It was a fashionable function, and the orchestra had been playing somewhat loudly. A well known Englishman was discussing the friendly relations of England and America with a very attractive American woman. The music stopped suddenly, and in the silence which followed the Englishman was heard to remark in heartfelt accents:—"And the more we know one another the more dearly we must love one another." Both hastened to offer explanations as to the entirely political character of their remarks, but nothing could stop the laughter of the delighted audience. Dr. Osler Is Misquoted. The London Lancet received from Dr. Osler a letter asking it to repudiate for him the words that he has been described as using in his farewell address to the students of Johns Hopkins University. He said he referred to a humorous suggestion in a novel, but expressed no views of his own as to the chloroforming of persons who had reached the age of sixty years. Practical Education. There is a strong demand to day for the practical in education. The lack of it has caused many pupils every year to drop out of the schools before completing the prescribed course. Domestic science and manual training are doing much to keep the children in school. All Wild. "I see that some of the Newport se gave a jungle dinner." "What was the object?" "I suppose they wanted to be wild." "H'm! I thought they were so enough already." REFLECTIONS OF A BACHELOP Settling down from the honeymoon is mighty like shooting the chutes. It's astonishing how a white-haired man always takes to a young blonde thing. A man ought to be as afraid of a girl's wink as of a prize fighter's upper cut. A woman elects to believe lots of things she calls anybody else a fool for believing. The Man and the Machine Mr. Alexander T.

Bruce of New York, who for thirty years haweilded a trenchant pen in the white and colored press of the nation under the nom de plume of "Bruce Grit." Readers of this paper have had an opportunity to know the man by his works and can appreciate what an influence he has wielded during the long period of service for right and the race. The dinner is a deserved compliment to him. Especially do we delight to see that he is a prophet not unknown to fame among the whites as well as among us, for the presence of Hon. J. S. Clarkson and Hon. W. E. Chandler at the dinner can only mean that the man is honored for his work. It takes rare courage to stand on the firing line for a cause like ours. Thirty years of warfare against foes without and schisms and weaknesses within would discourage any but the most persistent optimist. But is is for the lesson that it shows that we would use this dinner. Truckling sychophancy characterizes so many Negroes and has such advocacy among us that we would urge all our people to consider by what different means this position of honor has come to John E. Bruce. Though ```markdown ``` THE STATESMAN. DENVER. COLORADO.

Through his contributions to the New York daily press he has done a great work for the cause of the freednem. He has never abridged a right or compromised on principle. Where cravens fawn and fools beg, real manhood first deserves and then insists upon its due. The foundation of our whole industrial system is merit. At times it is so far buried by inconsistencies that it does not shine out but after all if the Negroes of the country would show their appreciation of their greatest newspaper writer they can best do it by following his example in high ideals, unflinching courage and patient devotion to improvement within the race. Joke That I Was On Depew. Senator Depew had to deny him self the pleasure of being present at a recent dinner where he was an invited guest, and so he missed a joke at his expense, which he enjoyed as much as any one, however, when it was told to him several days later Bishop Potter was the perpetrator. Senator Depew's regrets had just been read. "I need not tell you," said the Bishop, "how we will miss the senator, he who has for so many years charmed us with the humor of his eloquence and the logic of his anecdotes,"—New York Times.
