The climate is wonderful. Low altitude, humidity of atmos- phere, soothing sea breezes and the general restful effect of the easy Southern life all tend to slow down the irritable heart and brain and bring about pefrect rest. The Colorado & Southern make a round trip rate of $43.50 to Galves- tou. Mr. E. A. Cooper, C. P. A,, ith and Curtis streets, will tell you about this attractive place.

San Antonio is an ideal place to spend the winter. Half foreign, whol ly noique it is altogether one of the interesting places. Its perfect cli- mate, semi-tropical vegetation and numerous plazas, adobe and missions make it more like an old Spanish city than any American town. The round trip rate to San Antonio via Colorado & Southern is $41.10 Complete information may be had from Mr. E. A. Cooper, C. P, A., 17th and Curtis Streets. WELL TO REMEMBER, Make the minutes pay. Do the hard things first. Aspiration + Perspiration = Suc cess. Do your procrastinating to-morrow; act to-day. The world doesn’t owe you a living. Tt was here first. It is better to touch one chord than to pul) many strings. Petrified people, like petrified trees, take the finest polish. Your worth consists in what you are, not in what you have. When a man begins to raise the devil, he always lowers himself. You can easily classify your friends among the wills, won'ts and can’'ts. There are two sides to every ques- tlon—your side and the wrong side. When a man is resigned to his fate, the resignation is generally accepted. The man who can but doesn’t, must give way to the man who can't but tries. Unless a man has scored at least one faliure, he is unable to appreciate success. 3 Don't get discouraged—it’s often the last key on the bunch that unlocks the door. A man without ambition fs a dere- lict, dangerous to others and of no value to himself.—Technical World. TEiW THOUGHTS. Sin !s sociable, virtue reserved.

On Tuesday night there will be a charity ball at Manitou Hall, the net proceeds of which all go to the Old Folks home and Orphanage. Many persons have bought tickets already and a record breaking crowd is probable on that date. This is an event which otherwise is entitled to consideration, but especially so for the purpose for which it is intended. Mask balls have a strong following always. The Entre Nous Club gives the second of a series of balls at East Turner Hall Tuesday night, and as it is a prize mask ball with elegant prizes for maskers, King Folly will have many revelers in his train. A FEARFUL FATE. It is a fearful fate to have to endure the terrible torture of Piles. "I can truthfully say," writes Harry Colson, of Masonville, Ia, "that for Blind Bleeding, Itching and Protruding Piles, Bucklen's Arnica Salve is the best cure m de." All-o best for cuts burns and injuries. 25c at all drug stores. The Indians of Pala, in the foothills of the Coast Range in the southern port of the state of California were converted to the Catholic faith by the Jesuit Fathers, who founded a mission among them. Though some superstitions prevail, their belief in the Resurrection is strong. Believing that the dead must remain for some time in the grave, they observe exactly the hour at which the spirit departs, and the rude wooden cross over each grave in the cemetery states the exact hour, minute and day on which the person died. Suspended from the arms of one of the crosses is an alarm clock, with the hands set at 6:57. The alarm at the back of the clock has been set at the same moment. The person who placed the clock there believes that at the proper moment the alarm will sound and will awaken the sleeping spirit. Another alarm clock, that once hung from the cross above it has fallen down and now lies in a damaged condition on the ground. Bottles, lamps, pitchers and other pieces of crockery and glassware are also seen on the graves. The cemetery is at Agua Calliente, or Warm Spring. American Inventor. THE STATESMAN. DENVER. COLORADO.

Quartz Veesels Leak. The new quartz vessels, so valuable for their endurance of temperature changes, have disadvantages. They leak at the high temperatures, and Berthelot, using tubes with walls 1-30 of an inch thick, lost a third of the oxygen and a sixth of the nitrogen in one hour at 1,400 degrees C. The sealed-up gases were originally about air pressure. In the Catechism. The late Rev. Walpole Warren was hearing the Sunday school repeat the catechism one Sunday preceding confirmation, when a boy from the class of small children ventured to ask a question of the minister. "Mr. Warren," he inquired in an anxious tone. "Why does the multiplication table make people wicked?" "Why do you ask that question, John? I never knew it to do so," he said. John turned to his catechism and read from it the question: "Did man grow worse -s he began to multiply?' And the accompanying answer, 'He did.'"—New York World. BROTHER DICKEY'S SAYINGS.

Bland came to this city from Milwaukee for the benefit of his health. He seemed to be on the road to recovery after a short stay, and except for occasional illnesses he was in good health. His death last Sunday morning, therefore, came as a shock to all his friends. It occurred on Pennsylvania avenue, where, with his wife and parents, he was making his home. The funeral took place from Shorter Church Tuesday, Rev. Dyett officiating. The interment was at Fairmount. The funeral was a sad one, he being a bridegroom only nine months ago. The wife, nee Sadie Thomas, and the parent have the sympathy of many friends. Mrs. Henry F. Smith has gone to Georgetown to visit her mother for a short season.

THE STATESMAN, DENVER, COLORADO The best time can be had at East Turner Hall next Tuesday night at the Entre Nous' mask ball. The entertainment of the year so far as Masonic lodges are concerned was the one of Rocky Mountain No. 1 at East Turner hall on Tuesday night. The crowd was immense. Early in the evening they began to assemble and late they were still coming. The Harris orchestra was at its best. The prizes were awarded according to plan, and the other arrangements met popular approval. This entertainment has set the high water mark for this lodge, and the chairman, T. R. Herron, has a justifiable pride in his achievement. A description of it without mentioning the excellent service at the punch bowl by Mrs. John R.

A minister at the Methodist conference tells of the prayers of his 5-year-old son, Frank. The ministerial head of the family finds it necessary to hide behind the door to prevent a spirit of levity from entering into what he intends shall be a serious matter. Every night the minister repeats something funny, and the minister repeats one prayer as a sample of all: "Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed by thy name; thy kingdom come, on earth as it is in heaven. No Lord, that ain't right, I made a mistake." Then he starts again and repeats the prayer, continuing: "Lord, bless papa and mamma and don't let mamma whip me any more as she did to-day, 'cause I'm too young to die, and bless Aunt Mamie and Uncle Frank, and Frank my ownself, and if I forgot anybody, bless them, 'cause, mamma, I'm so sleepy. I—for—got—to—say—amen," and the bright little eyes close before the mother tucks the youngster under the covers.—Columbus Dispatch. POET POURS FORTH HIS SOUL. Waxes Eloquent Over Simple Rising of the Moon. This is how a flowery descriptive writer "piles it up" in dealing with the rising of the moon: "Brighter grew the relumed orient as up behind the slowly-drifting cloud-mountains fair Selene drove her royal train, till now the deepened border of every peak and crag, gilded and burnished with aureate beauty, towered out in rosy outline against the boundless perspective of occidental space. Up, up moved the gorgeous procession, while the constellations grew dim and the stars turned pale and, vanishing to their dismal homes, left no blushing rivalry to vie with the fair, sweet face of the beautiful night queen. Now beaming with the full and radiant gaze of conscious purity, the chaste, wandering princess of the skies serenely smiled down upon the dreaming Earth as through unclouded grandeur she rolled her royal chariot higher up the ethereal realms of night."—London Answers. Fighting Shows Race. "By the way they fight I can tell men's nationality," said a policeman. "An Englishman, when he is going to fight throws his hat and coat in a blustering, bluffing way on the ground. A Scot pulls his hat down tight on his head and buttons his coat carefully. The canny Scot is not going to endanger any of his property. An Irishman appeals to the crowd to hold his coat. The Celtic nature desires sympathy and tries to build it up. A German methodical, precise—folds his coat in a neat bundle and lays his hat on top of it to hold it down. An American is so anxious to pitch in and have the thing over that he starts fighting without giving a thought to hat or coat." Scotch Logic. "Weel, John, how are you to-day," asked the Scottish minister. "Gey weel, sir; gey weel," replied John cautiously, "gin it wasna for the rheumatism in the right leg." "Ah, John, there is no mistake you are getting old like the rest of us, and old age doesn't come alone." "Auld age, sir!" returned John. "I won'er to hear ye. Auld age has naething tae dae wilt. Here's my ither leg jist as auld, an' it's soond and soople yet." HERE'S RECORD WHIST HAND. Wisconsin Player Had No Card Higher Than a Seven. "Only once in the history of whist playing in this locality," writes a man from Waukesha, Wis., "so far as can be learned, has a hand been dealt in which there was no card higher than a seven spot, and that hand was held a few days ago, at the local whist club, by August Jacobson o his city. The hand was made up as follows: Spades, 3, 4; diamonds, 2, 4; clubs, 2, 5, 6, 7; hearts, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7. "This beats the famous 'Yarborough' hand for which the Duke of Yarborough offered a prize of one thousand pounds for several years and found no one to win it. He was willing to pay this amount to any one who could show him a hand dealt in which no card had a value higher than a nine spot. The offer was known throughout England, and in time all hands of exceptionally low value became known as 'Yarborough' hands. The Jacobson hand bids fair to become as celebrated among whist players as that the duke was unable to find."—New York Press. Hyde Sought Ambassadorship. It is now stated on excellent authority that James Hazen Hyde once marshaled influences that are generally most potent in public affairs to secure for himself appointment by the President as successor to Gen. Porter as United States ambassador extraordinary in Paris. The matter was seriously undertaken and most earnestly pushed. It was not a joke or a half-hearted movement, but a dead set was made on President Roosevelt. All the wires he could have manipulated were pulled. Some of the biggest men in the country backed him. President Eliot, of Harvard, spoke a good word for him. President Roosevelt sent for this favorite of so many. The chief magistrate looked over the aspirant and put him through his paces and the end was that President Roosevelt bluntly declared: "This man will not do." So ended the hopes of Hyde.—Chicago Chronicle. Where It Really Was Cold. At the boarding house on Morrison street they were discussing climate. The Portland man declared that the ground last winter never froze to a depth of two inches. "It froze two feet where I came from," said the man from New Jersey. "Up in the Adirondack mountains," remarked the New Yorker, "the ground last winter froze to a depth of ten feet." The Iowa man sat quietly munching his lettuce while the others expectantly awaited his effort to outmatch the New Yorker. "Pshaw!" he said, "that's nothing. Why, back in Des Moines the ground froze so deep that the Chinese emperor sent a request to Gov. Cummings to start a fire. He complained that his subjects had cold feet." Portland Oregonian. Writes Good Verse. The queen of Roumania, known in the literary world as "Carmen Sylva," is not the only poet-queen, for the king of Italy's beautiful consort writes really charming verse. Queen Elena speaks English, French, German and Italian, but her poems, which are shortly to be published by a German firm, were written in Serb, her native language, from which they have been translated into German.

According to a scheme patented by James Robinson, a Sydney (New South Wales) business man, the day may come when every household will have fresh air supplied in pipes in much the same way as gas and water are now distributed, saya the Philadel- phia Record. The apparatus consists of a captive balloon, or 2 series of balloons, with a tube of aluminum communicating with a reservoir on the earth. The reservoir will be kept ‘full of air from the upper atmospheric regions by means of w @uction fan. This pipes to those willing to pay for It. That, at any rate, !s the theory. The idea also covers the supply of oxygen im this manner to hermetically sealed rooms for the treatment of patients suffering from consumption or anaemia. A further notion {s to fill bags with high level air for use in sickrooms, just as at present seltro- genes are filled with soda water, and it is even suggested that “fresh air” depots should be established where people could drop in for a “breathe.” The inventor has submitted his plans to local doctors and engineers. The doctors agree as to the great hy- | genic value of alr obtained in the way suggested, but doubt the feasibility at the scheme. The engineers, how- ever, do not seem to think {It imprac | tible. _ The government has been asked to ‘test the idea with a view to its being “Adopted as a state enterprise.

The table is of silver, and it is said to be the most exquisite specimen of the silyersmith's art that the world contains. The dishes are brought in upon the heads of jublakiars, or cooks' assistants, and each dish is covered and sealed with the royal seal. There are always fifty or more dishes, and all are set before the sultan at the same time. He eats, usually, from about six. Though the sultan is himself a total abstainer, the finest vintage wines are always offered to such guests as dine in the palace. Every dish the ruler partakes of is first tasted in the kitchen by the grand vizier, lest it be poisoned, and it is immediately thereafter that its sealing takes place. Always, be re he can fall to on a dish, the sul must break its seal. It is not because he eats $5,000 worth of food himself that the sultan's dinner bill is so expensive. He eats, as a matter of fact, no more than a half dollar's worth. But the guests and retainers who dine at his expense number daily several thousand. MOSQUITOES ARE KILLING BIRDS Attack Them at Night and Suck Their Blood Away. Scores of canaries and other birds m Baltimore, Md., are the victims of the merciless attacks of mosquitoes. Great numbers of birds become weak and die as a result of having the life blood sucked from their bodies by the insects at night. "Scores of birds die in this city each year," said James A. Graham, a canary fancier, "of the attacks of mosquitoes. Several years ago I noticed that the legs of my pets were swollen and the skin cracked and sore. The birds perceptibly shrunk in size and were almost dead when it was suggested to me that mosquitoes had something to do with the trouble. "I at once set to work, accepting the mosquito theory as the correct one. The cages were covered with net to keep out the pests, and as an extra precaution the legs of the birds were dipped in oil of pennyroyal, red cedar and other remedies with perfectly satisfactory results. The insects can bite through the feathers of the canary with perfect ease. All birds when they sleep during the summer spread out their feathers, making it easy for the long-billed mosquito to reach their bodies. A Society Note. Miss Tissie Inkum, youngest daughter of Bullifat Inkum, Esq., was married yesterday to Mr. Dedleigh Bohr. The ceremony took place in the Church of the Holy Dividends and there was a large gathering of New York society, many guests having left their country houses and come to the city for the occasion. The church was handsomely decorated with wreaths and garlands of stock certificates. The bride's father being ill—from overeating—she entered the church on the arm of her uncle, the Hon. Greedy McGreedy. Her veil of tulle was held by a coronet of diamonds. Better ter ketch de first freight train what comes along than ter set still an' wait fer de wagon. Atlanta Constitution.

When homeopathy was in its fancy my father, who was a sea captain, became a strong devotee, and lost no opportunity to sound its praises. He owned a medicine chest and a big book of directions, which he zealously studied and became so thoroughly imbued with the doctrine that it became a standing joke among his friends and family. 'Uncle Aleck Coffin' was his mate, and quite a droll old sea dog in his way. He was an unbeliever in the new practice, and lost no opportunity to crack a joke at its expense. One evening "Uncle Aleck" called at the house when he ha severe cold and was feeling ill generally. Here was father's opportunity. He got out his book, looked "Uncle Aleck" over seriously, put some pellets in a paper and told "Uncle" to be sure and take them as he told him to. The next day "Uncle Aleck" called at the house, and lo! his cold was gone and he was himself again. Father felt triumphant. "Well, Alexander," he said, "I guess you will believe now there is some virtue in my little pellets. Of course you took them." "Yes," said "Uncle Aleck," they must be great stuff. When I got home they'd spilled out, but I chewed the paper and came out all right." "Chewing the paper" has become quite a remedial byword in our family ever since.—Boston Herald. ONLY IN THE FAMILY. Young Lady Set Confines to Rather Bad Habit. An official in the government service at Washington tells of a rupture of the friendly relations that had so long subsisted between his daughter of nine years, named Katharine, and another little girl of the same age, called Marie. It appears that, immediately after the falling out, the youngster last mentioned was moved to communicate to the parents of Katharine certain details of the distressing occurrence. When next the two children met there ensued some rather severe recriminations. Said Katharine: "I think you're just a hateful, mean thing to tell my father and mother that I bit you. You just ought to be ashamed of yourself!" "Well," retorted Marie, "I think you ought to have been ashamed to bite me." "Suppose I did bite you," vehemently answered Katharine; "you bite sometimes, don't you?" Wnereupon Marie evinced the greatest indignation. "Let me tell you one thing," she observed, "if I do bite, I never bite any one outside my own family!"—New York Times. Robber Was Generous. A masked robber entered a saloon at Garelle, Siskiyou county, California, the other night, and robbed the fifteen men there at the muzzle of a pistol. Then he emptied the cash register, laid $6 down on the bar, saying: Take a drink on me, boys," and backed out into the darkness. Many a man, after spending the best years of his life in climbing the ladder, suddenly lets go and reaches the bottom again in a few seconds. Chicago News.

About Certain Words. There is often a hint of something approaching to an ancient kind of slang in various dignified words in the English language. So respectable a term as "perspicuity," for instance, means that a thing can be "seen through" easily. The word "apocalypse" means "lifting off the cover," or, in other words, the revelation of whatever good or bad things may be concealed in a chest of secrets like Pandora's box, possibly, or maybe only in the lunch basket of some old Greek workingman.

Irish Village of Bultimore Baltimore, in Maryland, gets its name from a small and unostentatious fishing village in Ireland. The word Baltimore signifies the "village that grew up about the big house" and the derivation is plain when one sees the ivy-covered ruins of the very remarkable big house that was once the stronghold of the O'Driscolls. It is situated upon an imposing height, a sentinel over the numerous little dwellings that have sprung up and increased in the vicinity of its wrecked and deserted life. From the village of Baltimore enormous catches of mackerel are sent to America. Monarch Discovered Gentian. Gentius, king of Illyricum, the eastern boundary of the Adriatic, was taken prisoner by the Romans about a century and a half before the Christian era for encouraging pirates, and died in custody. He discovered that a certain plant was a very good tonic, and that plant has ever since been called Gentiani, after him. This plant is generally supposed to have been the tall, coarse alpine, common in mountainous districts in central Europe, and known to botanists as G. lutea, a preparation of which is still in high repute as a medicine.

One year ... £2.00 Six months... Entered at the postoffice, Denver, C Black Phone us y Phone us your Entered at the postoffice, Denver, Colorado, as second class mailmatter. Among the New Year's resolutions which The Statesman has taken is one to swear anew its allegiance to the principles of republicanism. We believe in the vesting of supreme authority in the national governemnt; in good money; in the protection of the industries of this country from undue competition with foreign countries; in the destiny of this great country of ours as the light of the world, protecting the oppressed in our own hemisphere and across the ocean in the Orient; in the superiority of the active, aggressive principles of republicanism over the passive government of democracy. We are so sure that there is enough of old Adam in mankind and that it won't go right without intelligent and forceful direction that we go further and apply the same doctrine to our own party. In short, while we are republicans and, all reports to the contrary notwithstanding, have given support to it in a degree that no other race paper has in this state, we feel that whenever it deserts the standard which it raised in 1856, it deserves the big stick. Our allegiance to the race is strictly in keeping with the genius of the republican party, for it is the party of equal opportunity, of progress, of "all men up, not some men down," and it is prima facie evidence to us that when the party and our race love disagree, the party is wrong. Campaign lies are hard to catch and impossible to refute. We will merely say in passing that all the stories of us that we were actuated by financial motives when we opposed the election HERE'S OURS THE STATESMAN, DENVER, COLORADO. MS. $1.00 Three months. 50 colorado, as second class mailmatter. 2207. your news. printing orders. of lily-white republicans a year ago, are false, and we believe that the republican campaign manager will bear us out, to whom we said: "If you will place, even at this eleventh hour, the Negroes who were to have been placed at the beginning of the Peabody administration, we will support the ticket and then talk of the financial consideration." So, while we renew our allegiance to republican principles, it does not follow that the state party leaders have renewed theirs. We believe that any decent white man is as good as a colored man, but maybe he does not believe that a decent colored man is as good as he. We are going to be on the firing line for Theodore Roosevelt and republicanism, but we do not yet think that colored janitors should work in the federal building for less wages than are given white men for the same service. Let the party tote fair. Let the Negro be a true party man. These two should go hand in hand. The Statesman will do its share toward the accomplishment of both. PUSH ON. HELP IS EVER NEAR. God helps those who help themselves and his agents are many. We are reminded of this by the donations which the Colored Orphanage and Old Folks' Home Association of Colorado is receiving from philanthropists of this state. All honor is due to the great hearts that have extended the helping hand to us in this the crisis of our quasi-citizenship. There is an innate modesty that impels such philanthropists to make little display of their deeds, but there is a lesson which their acts teach and for its --- TERMS. sake we will disregard their wishes and call attention to an example. Gen. Palmer of Colorado Springs, whose name is linked with the early industrial achievements of our state, has more than once given of his means to further Negro education. In this issue we report a gift to the Orphanage. Then he leaves these beaten paths and subscribes for stock in a Negro corporation and helps the Negro to help himself, and for this last we honor him most of all. God help our race, if it must be carried like a baby. Nature would outrage itself if it did not crush us mercilessly when we do not do our own work, make our own greatness, and wrest success despite the handicaps slavery has put upon us. The world has no place for driveling incompetents and quitters. Our friends are not those who carry us, but those who drive, those who inspire us by showing a confidence in our ability to succeed. And in the same measure they believe in us, we must make good. Perfect work, laboriously wrought, is the key to real equality in this country for the Negro. Political activity cannot counteract sloth and ignorance, even religious zeal is hypocrisy when it has not industry as a companion and intelligence as a hand maid. As in the case of General Palmer we find a friend who believes in us, so we will find many if we make good. Providence never let a good man down. It has always pleced out honest endeavor. Good luck waits upon the worker. Let our New Year's resolution be to insist none the less upon the rights that should be ours, but the more upon the duties that are ours. GIVE US A REST.

So it is that there may be some faults in one of the great men of the race; he may have committed grave errors; he may be seeking the path of least resistance, but he has done too much to attract the attention of the world to the needs of the Negro race and has aided too much the growth of our usefulness and self-respect, for him to be derided. We refer to Booker T. Washington and his critics. There are greater and lesser evils, and it is nothing against either party to a controversy where each has something to support his view of the case. "There is undue insistence upon work," says the critic, "in Mr. Washington's teaching, and a lack of manly assertion of rights." Were he to stop here one could believe it his unbiased judgment, but when, in season and out of season, the fight is continued, it does not seem justifiable. Give every man credit for his work. The educational value of Booker T. Washington's work is undeniable. Even granting every criticism, his political influence has been coincident with if not followed by a broadening of our perspective. True, disfranchisement has come, but it existed in grim reality before, if not in name. We have merely ceased to be the blind behind which the hunter seeks his prey. Let the critics give us a rest from their eternal plaint; let them supplement Mr. Washington, doing well what he leaves undone; in short, let them do as the Jews were enjoined to do during the siege of Jerusalem—let each man build and defend that part of the wall which is over next to his own house. There is too much work to waste time in criticism, and we believe that the critics will find too much to do in keeping their part of the wall protected to watch the cut and thrust of the "Wizard of Tuskegee."
