Va., general of the uniform rank of the Knight of Pythias and one of the editors of the Advocate of that city, is in the city this week on business. He has some mining interests in Central City which he has come West to look over. His prominence in the order of Pythians made him the recipient of many courtesies from the brethren while here. There was a reception tendered him at Odd Fellows Hall Wednesday night by the local uniform rank at which there were some good addresses made and a general good fraternal feeling. His stay will terminate this week. While here he was stopping with J. D. Rivers. Rev. W. R. Hardy of the Bessemer Baptist Church, Pueblo, was in the city Wednesday looking after the pews for his new church. With this exception the church is completely finished. It is a notable monument of the work and sacrifice of the pastor and people. It is built upon the scene of many failures and will serve as an example of what loyalty to church and intelligent effort can do. Mr. and Mrs. Geo. Eli were pleasant callers this week.

PROGRESSIVE CLUB ENTERTAINMENT MARCH 29. The reproduction of the wedding of Miss Alice Roosevelt to Mr. Nicolas Longworth, which will be produced by the W. F. H. C. Progressive Club at East Turner Hall, Thursday evening, March 29, promises to be the most brilliant social affair ever witnessed by the colored citizens of Denver. The committee has completed arrangements to carry out the program in perfect harmony and in keeping with the real wedding, which took place on the 17th of February at Washington. The committee has already sent out one thousand invitations to their friends and find that that number is wholly inadequate to supply the demand of persons desirous of witnessing the affair. We were therefore compelled to take this method of extending a cordial welcome to our many friends whom we were wholly unable to reach with our limited number of a thousand invitations. Consequently, those of our friends who did not receive invitations direct can secure tickets at the following places: The two colored drug stores. Drs. Westbrook and Harper5s office. The O. K.

Flemming's 40th birthday. If Mr. Flemmings were not married the public would no doubt be deprived of the number of useful years which this good husband, father and citizen has lived. Mr. A. C.

A. lecture room to an enthusiastic audience, on honest politics. Judging from the small attendance, however, the people are still in favor of primary corruption and political dishonesty.

There is a professor of Columbia who persists in wearing a weatherbeaten Panama hat regardless of the fact that the season has closed. The other day he told a friend he was going to the Zoological gardens in The Bronx next Sunday. That friend looked quizzically at the straw hat on the professor's head. "I'd hate to see you go up there wearing that straw hat," he said solemnly. "If you went near the camels you'd be arrested for destroying city property." "What do you mean?" asked the professor. "It is the 'last straw.' you know that breaks the camel's back."—New York Press. A Prophet and Paul Jones. In Fenimore Cooper's novel called "The Pilot" the hero says: "The truth must be finally known, and when that hour shall come, they will say, he was a faithful and gallant warrior in his day; and a worthy lesson for all who are born in slavery, but would live in freedom, shall be found in his example." The Pilot was published in 1823. In 1905 the remains of Paul Jones were transferred from France to the land of his adoption, where they now await formal interment. Fenimore Cooper seems to have been farseeing. The Trouble. "I tell you there is nothing like traveling to take the conceit out of a man. It surely took it out of me." "True. But the deuce of it is that the coming back always puts more of it in."—Detroit Tribune.

No Time to Sort Her Mail. “The ways of women are beyond the comprehension of mere man,” said her companion as after purchasing her stamps at the general post office she carried her mail to the nearest post- box. “Will you kindly explain why you did that?” “Simply because I hadn't time to sort my mail into ‘Letters, Newspa: pers and Packages, Foreign, Domestic, New York City’ and a few dozen other subdivisions and then walk around that monstrous building to find the proper drops for the various articles,” she replied. “It takes time, patience and Ingenuity to post anything in the general postoffice and | dont possess any of those things.

He spends most of the time in his hand some Paris studio. At the last salon he exhibited three pictures under an assumed name. The artistic world acknowledged their merit, so now, having won praise for his work and not because of his royal birth, he no longer conceals his identity. Few Ambulances in London.

An Englishman writes to a London newspaper: "I have had for two years a goldfish which had survived the occasional accidents of defective water supply and the too intimate companionship of playful kittens. Yesterday I missed her from her accustomed place in the crystal bowl, and, panic stricken, led the neighborhood in vain. In the garden, unlikely spot was critically explored. Returning, I saw to my horror, in a corner of the house remote from the gold-fish room, the usually well-behaved cat toying with the escaped fish. Rescue was the work of a moment. To my astonishment, on dropping the fish back into the bowl, she flapped her fins, breathed heavily and swam about with her usual sangfroid." Would Protect Poor Bachelor. An English clergyman has taken up the cudgels on behalf of the unwary bacuelora of his parish who may be caught in the net of those who may prove thriftless wives. He strongly advises them to insist upon inspecting the credentials of the fair malda who covet their favor before committing themselves by proposing. They are to insist upon the production of certificates guaranteeing the young woman to be proficient in needlework, breadmaking and potato boiling. Sock darning and dish washing are evidently optional subjects. On meriting approval the damsel is entitled in return to ask for certificates indicating competency on the part of the impetuous lover to grow flowers and vegetables. --- New Yorker Would Not Build House in Canadian Woods. He was such a typical New Yorker that he seemed strangely out of place in the queer little lumber village way up in the Canadian woods where his outlies as a lumber inspector called him. And his talk, which was ever of "the ponies" and the race track seemed even more incongruous in a place where the white men talked of "shorts" and "outs," "two by twelves" and "silos" and all the rest of the jargon of a lumber mill. One day the superintendent of the plant, who had taken a great fancy to the young New Yorker, and who apparently loved to listen to the inspector's stories of how he "won three hundred on Roseben" and other profitable operations against the ring, told him he ought to invest some of his winnings in a piece of land near the mill, build a cottage and bring his family up there for the summer. The New Yorker looked at him in silence for a minute. Then he ejected a long stream of tobacco juice and ejaculated slowly, "What, build a house here! Say, when I build a cottage it'll be at Coney, and it won't be far from the track. That's as straight a tip as you'll ever get." A woman never becomes so intelligent that she learns it is no pleasure to others to hear her coax her child to speak a piece. If people could be buried by putting their coffins in the open air, and the living could see the coffins float upward until out of sight, a great many more people would believe in religion. - Atchison (Kan.)

Eureka Lodge No. 19, A. F. & A. M., took into their fold last Tuesday evening four accessions. The lodge is progressing nicely. We are sorry to say that occasionally confusion and misunderstanding arise in our churches. These are bad conditions to exist and they cannot be considered along the lines of progress. We hope no one will be so base and cruel as to try to convert such opportunities to the advantage of their mean, selfish gains. Everyone should be willing to lend a helping hand to assist in settling these much disturbed conditions. The Mt. Olive Baptist Church had a grand rally last Sunday, meeting with success beyond the expectation of the members. The church is progressing nicely under the intellectual leadership of Rev. N. Brookins.

Officiating Priests in New York's Great Roman Catholic Edifice Have Sumptuous Raiment for the Special Ceremonies of the Church. The vestments in use at St. Patrick's cathedral, New York, compare very favorably with those in many of the famous cathedrals in Europe, and they are the finest in any cathedral in America. Archbishop Corrigan presented to the cathedral the only complete set of Holy Thursday vestments in the world. They are valued at $20,000. In the set are thirteen chasubles, ten dalmatics, nine tunics, two copes and lace albs, amices and other vestments to correspond to the Holy Thursday service alone. These vestments are of the finest white satin, embroidered with gold 90 per cent fine. The principal ornaments are the passion flower, wheat sheaf and grapes, embroidered in silk and gold, emblematic of Holy Week. The body of the vestment is worked with sprays of fuchsias. The remainder of the vestments in this set are made of the finest moire antique, embroidered in the finest silk and gold to correspond. This magnificent set of vestments was made by the Dominican Sisters at Hunt's Point. It took fifteen nuns an entire year, working eight hours a day. The chasubles are studded with pearls and rubies. The archiepiscopal sets, worn when the Archbishop pontificates, are of the finest red silk velvet. There are eight sets, which cost $5,000 each. They are embroidered in pure gold. A famous set of vestments now in the old sacristy was a gift to the late Archbishop Hughes. On these vestments, which are of the finest gold cloth, is worked the Archbishop's coat of arms. They are embroidered with gold and encrucled with jewels. The set comprises vestments for twelve priests besides the Archbishop. Archbishop Corrigan wore these vestments occasionally. Another set of vestments which has attracted attention from admirers of artistic embroidery was presented to Archbishop Corrigan. They are rose colored and are worn on two days only of the year and are permitted to cathedrals and collegiate institutions only throughout the world. They are embroidered in fine gold and artistic needlework. On the chasuble is the usual cross, and the figures on the cross and designs on the frontispiece are worked in silks of different colors, gold and silver on gold. Another handsome set is one worn for pontifical requiem masses. It is of black moire antique silk. A set of vestments which was prepared specially for Archbishop Corrigan is used for celebrating the nuptial mass. It is made of white satin, and around the outer edge is worked a vine of forgetme-nots in colors that blend. Around the cross in the back of the chasuble are worked sprays of marguerites in vine shape. Owing the Tailor In Maine. Ex-Mayor George F. Owen tells the following about the late Owen B. Chadbourne, for years proprietor of a large carriage manufactory: A farmer from North Saco came to town one day in search of Daniel THE STATESMAN, DENVER, COLORADO. Owen, the tailor, who was located where ex-Mayor Owen now conducts a tailoring business. Directly across the street from the tailor shop the agriculturist accosted a man and inquired where Owen the tailor did business. Pointing to Owen B. Chadbourne, who stood on the other side of the street, the citizen, who was something of a wag, replied: "You see that tall man standing there; well, that is Owen the tailor." The farmer sauntered across the street and, approaching Mr. Chadbourne, drawled out: "Are you Owen the tailor?" Mr. Chadbourne replied: "Sure, I am owing the tailor, and every one else in town; but," he added, "I don't cut coats for a living." The farmer looked at the carriage manufacturer a full minute before he "tumbled," and when he did, his laugh could be heard in the suburbs. —Boston Herald. Not Needed. A congregation in Illinois had decided to erect a new church edifice and temporary accommodations were obtained in an abandoned theater. The clergyman, with folded arms and pompous bearing, directed the efforts of his sexton, who was busily engaged in cleaning up the accumulated rubbish and pitching it into the flames. "Let nothing be wasted, William," warned the preacher. "Whatever may be utilized lay it aside, and I will dispose of it later." A few moments later the clergyman saw the sexton draw near the fire with a massive easel-like arrangement "William," he called, "don't destroy that; it may be of service." "Hardly," grunted the perspiring sexton as he tossed the affair into the flames; "it's an old sign, 'Standing Room Only.'"—Chicago American Out of a Flying Machine. When Milky Way Nelson, the aeronaut, fell several hundred feet and landed on top of Spike Hennessy's saloon the air patrol flew to gather him up. Just before he expired he asked: "What was that building I fell on?" "A saloon," was the reply. "That was on the house," he said feebly and passed away. Queer Present for Jockey. Early in his career Fordham, the great English rider, received perhaps the most remarkable present ever offered to a jockey. He had, by brilliant horsemanship, pulled off a race on a horse which started a complete outsider, and had won something like $50,000 for its fortunate owner. Not unnaturally the jockey expected a substantial recognition of his skill, and his feelings may rather be imagined than described when the owner gave him a pat on the back and placed in his hand a package of candy. Too Much for the Old Man. The North Atchison boys tell a story on Joe Henderson. Joe is the father of Jess Henderson, the athlete who used to be rated as the strongest man in town. When Jess was about 15 years old, and after he had taken boxing lessons several months, Joe attempted to box his ears. After trying his best, Joe couldn't hit Jess. Jess was too "scienced:" go father Jo wert into the house and said to his wife: "Mamma, what's the matter with cur Jess?

Burroughs, the corresponding secretary of the Woman's Auxilliary Convention and who was lionized at the World's Baptist Congress in London in a recent issue of her paper, made the following observation in speaking of the Negro and Tom Dixon: "Prejudice is on the increase and race hatred and sectional strife is everywhere felt. If I could believe that the Southern people, with all of their animosities, are Christians, or even civilized, and that God is going to accept this type and give them a place in the kingdom, I would pray to Him to make me a savage and remove from me every possible means of knowing that Jesus died to save and take my chances in the last day among those who have never even heard the name of Jesus. If the Southern people, with all their prejudices, are Christians, then the people in this world who are free from this type of barbarism, are saints. The Negroes may be ignorant, some may be shiftless, some may be immoral, but it must be said to their credit that they have never produced and promoted to the highest office a barbarian like Vardaman. If the men in the highest positions in he Southland are of this type, how will you rate the masses? Governors, Senators, Representatives, preachers, business men, the upper class and the army of poor whites need missionaries and need them at once." She created quite a stir among the white papers near Kansas City. Mo., as the above was in italics. Last Friday night Prof. W. H. Richards conducted an enormous mass meeting of the people of District of Columbia to protest the suffrage conditions in the South. 1. Garland Penn, the corresponding secretary of the Negro Young People's Christian and Educational Congress has sent out notices that the organization will meet next July in Washington, D. C. Frank McVey of Concordia, Kan., a member of the Christian Church, has been employed by the Missionary Board of Southern California to sing at their revivals. A bill was offered last week in Mississippi to legalize lynching. Next May, in Springfield, Ill., a convention will be called for the purpose of electing colored men to office and for the improvement of the race. The members, consisting of the leading Negroes, have invited Booker T. Washington to participate. Editor Clement of the Boston Transcript says that America's future artists will come from the Negro race. The colored waiters of the St.-James of Baltimore have flatly refused to serve the representatives of the "Clansmen." The Denver mint has seven colored people employed out of about 125. THE STATESMAN, DENVER, COLORADO. Jim Crow Schools have been upheld in Orange, New Jersey. While two thousand were unable to get in the hall, nine thousand people attended the Constitutional League meeting held in Philadelphia to protest against the discrimination and disfranchisement laws in the South. Such meetings will be held in every city where the colored people are sufficient in numbers. The colored citizens of Boston have protested against the state of Massachusetts giving one cent of money for a building and exhibits in Jamesown Exposition unless the officials give a written guarantee that Negroes will not be discriminated against. Giles B. Jackson and the Development Co. favor being jim-crowed by their announcement in the papers. The Postal Telegraph and Western Union of Chattanooga, Tenn., have em'ployed colored boys exclusively. Splendid results are already being evinced. The question has been asked President Roosevelt and Secretary of War why Major Chas. Young, the only high commissioned colored officer in active service of the three who are West Point graduates, has been transferred to the Philippines. The South MacAlester, I. T., Elks (white) were so considerably wrought up because a Negro waiter appeared in the streets with an Elk pin that they ordered him to discard the button. On investigation he proved himself a member of the I. O. B. P. E. of Dallas, Texas. Mrs. Uina May Dupree of Atlanta, Ga., who swore a Negro attacked her and cut her throat, confessed that she inflicted the wound upon herself. The S. Coleridge-Taylor Choral Society will present the "Atonement" under the directorship of Prof. J. T. Layton at the Congregational church (white) during Easter week at Wash., D. C. Messrs. Cole and Johnson are authors of a new military drama to be first presented in Europe then in America. Because the citizens of Nashville, Tenn., provided space in one corner of the building for colored delegates representing the various colored colleges who were sent to the Student Volunteer Movement for Foreign Missions, which held its sessions February 28, in Nashville, the students of Howard University, Wash., D. C.; Fisk University, of Nashville, and Morris Brown College, of Atlanta, Ga., withdrew from the movement and each at their respective colleges met and passed resolutions condemning such a discrimination. In June Wilberfarce University will celebrate her golden jubilee. The new Carnegie Library and Galloway Hall will be dedicated.

All the railroads must contract with her to care for injured employes and the white physicians of the city have no scruples against consulting with her. She was the first woman physician ever appointed in South Carolina. Gin Preferred by Some of Them. Some years since, at a business meeting of a colored church in Portland, Maine, just before the meeting adjourned one of the deacons called the attention of the pastor to the fact that they were out of communion wine, and moved that a supply should be bought. The sexton-said, before the question was put, "I wish to say dat I hab heard many ladies of de congregation express dere preference for gin." Sailors' Dread of the Dead. The intense dread which sailors and fishermen have of the dead is prevalent among all nationalities and the horror of the Chinese sailor who asked to carry a corpse on board is shared by his brother sailor on every sea. They say "the sea cannot digest the crudity of a dead body, it being a due debt to be interred where it lieth, and a ship cannot abide to be made a bier of." Money in Abalones. The abalone industry is a considerable one among the Chinese of the Pacific coast. Several processes are necessary to bring out the wonderful colorings in the shells, and acres of ground are devoted to curing them. This work is carried on by the Mongolian fishermen, who depend for their sole sustenance largely upon the fish of the bivalve itself. Somewhat Indecent Haste. Jones, who had recently married Smith's widow, hastily opened a note which lay the breakfast table wi hout looking at the address. To his discomfiture he found a circular from a firm of monumental masons, enclosing a drawing of a tombstone with the inscription: "To the memory of my beloved husband, whom I can never replace."

Prompt reply by mail FORD'S HAIR POMADE Formerly known as "OZONIZED OX MARROW" SO STRAIGHTENS KINKY or CURLY HAIR that it can be put up in any style desired consistent with its length. Ford's Hair Pomade was formerly known as "OZONIZED OX MARROW" and is the only safe preparation known to us that makes kinky or curly hair straight. As shown above. Its use makes the most stubborn, harsh, kinky or curly hair soft, pliable and easy to comb. These results may be obtained from one treatment; 2 to 4 bottles are usually sufficient for a year. The use of Ford's Hair Pomade ("OZONIZED OX MARROW") removes and prevents dandruff, relieves itching, invigorates the scalp, stops the hair from falling out or breaking off, makes it grow and, by nourishing the roots, gives it new life and vigor. Being elegantly perfumed and harmless, it is a toilet necessity for ladies, gentlemen and children. Ford's Hair Pomade ("OZONIZED OX MARROW") has been made and sold continuously since about 1858, and labeled "OZONIZED OX MARROW", was registered in the United States Patent Office, in 1858. In all that long period of time there has never been a bottle returned from the hundreds of thousands we have sold. FORD'S HAIR POMADE remains sweet and effective, no matter how long you keep it. Be sure to get Ford's, as its use makes the hair STRAIGHT, SOFT, and PLIABLE. Beware of imitations. Remember that Ford's, Hair Pomade ("OZONIZED OX MARROW") is put up only in 50 ct. size, and is made only in Chicago and by us. The genuine has the signature, Charles Ford-Prest. on each package. Refuse all others. Full directions with every bottle. Price only 50 cts. Sold by druggists and dealers. If your drugist or dealer can not supply you, he can procure it from his jobber or wholesale dealer or send us 50 cts. for one bottle postpaid, or $1.49 for three bottles or $2.50 for six bottles, express paid. We pay postage and express charges to all points in U. S. A. When ordering send postal or express money order, mention this paper. Write your name and address plainly to The Ozonized Ox Marrow Co.

"All things come to him who waits" is popular philosophy with a lazy man or with one who has a mush backbone. The strenuous assertiveness of the Anglo-Saxon has made it very evident that it is also possible for all things to come to the man who goes three-quarters of the way after them. We are led to discuss this question in general and particular terms by the fact that Negroes are prone to prayer and resignation while the enemies of the race are given to works with faith that what they take is theirs. Openings for Negro skilled labor are few. Even for unskilled labor they are not many. It is the part of the Negro human nature to put up with conditions with the most beautiful faith somehow sometime Providence will work out the way to better things. We would not remove that faith but would cite a few instances of what the under dog can do to hasten the time appointed for this millenium. The Denver public utilities have held undisputed sway in this city for so long and have so thoroughly used councils, mayors, and even courts for their ends, that no one believed that they could be moved from their grip. Yet the past few weeks have seen the growth of municipal ownership sentiment to that extent that even these corporations have felt that some concessions would need be made to stem the tide. More of these soulless cor- THE STATESMAN, DENVER, COLORADO. RMS. $1.00 Three months.

A similar condition has prevailed in the nation. The gigantic railroads, the trusts of every description have been brought to bay by a few wandering reformers crying in the wilderness. The raising of the age of consent, the closing of saloons at certain hours, the regulation and suppression of vice have all come from the seed sown by a few. So the question resolves itself down to whether the Negro is a coward deserving of no man's consideration, or whether he is a believer in his own destiny and has the courage to fight against the whole world if need be to triumph. Nothing great or good is to be accomplished by prayers and without effort. The high prize is to the worker and not the dreamer. God has never set His seal of success upon a lazy man. Through all time the worker who waited won out. If Negroes think they deserve greater industrial opportunity, let them learn trades as best they can and then search the whole world through, but they will find a position, and the barriers will come down. If they need a better social atmosphere, let them leave off aping the white man and make their own better. No man ought or will share with another the good things which he has arduously wrought when the other is too trifling to equal him in endeavor.

If our houses we rent are not good enough, buy homes and make them as good as we please. If white people do not want to be neighborly, tend to our own business and we will come to be considered the best of neighbors. Keep up your homes, rented or owned, plant flowers, use paint, and it will not be long that a Negro's home can be told by appearances. Some of us complain that President Roosevelt, after his trip South, came back less our friend and that he sold us out for southern support for his pet measures. We do not believe this, but if he did he robbed the purchaser. for there is nothing so worthless as a people who do not even value themselves. Not a delegation waits on the President with an intelligent plan for securing the Negro his full rights, not a meeting is held to organize to fight for rights, not a dollar of our millions is put up to test laws first, and then to push legislation if there is not enough now. The few exceptions to this sweeping charge against the race, involve so small a per cent. of our people that they are negligible. If you want something, ask for it. If you do not get it, fight. When the Negro learns this in politics, he will find that not alone a friendly president but even an unfriendly one will consider our interests. DENVER DOINGS.

The popularity of the Cafe and its mode of entertainment is unquestioned. Mrs. Lillie B. Moore, Rev. Dyett and Mrs. Searight are among those who have been sick and are still confined to bed.

Ripening years seem to have mellowed him, giving smoothness and fluency, while in no way lessening the magnetic power which he has over his hearers.

Ford has returned to the city and is a much traveled man, having visited many of the schools of the South as well as the Kentucky school, to which he has been extended an invitation to be head. He has not given the executive board of the school any answer as to his intentions. It is the sincere hope of the people of Denver that he will decide to remain here. He spoke at he Alliance Sunday of the work being done by the southern schools. His remarks on this line were thoroughly enjoyed by all. The body of John Buford who died last Friday lies at the undertaker's waiting for word from his relatives. Mrs. Robert Cheathom, sister of Mrs. S. D. Matthews, is expected daily from the East.
