WOUNDS OF SATIRIST HEALED
New Yorkers no Longer Resent "Gotham" and "Knickerbocker." That the sarcasm which angered one generation is so far forgotten by another that a name the satirist bestows on a community is accepted as the local designation and becomes a favorite without reference to its origin, says the Boston Transcript, is evidenced in the title of the newest hotel in Manhattan, the Gotham. New Yorkers are fond of calling themselves Gothamites, but their ancestors of nearly 100 years ago were incensed
---
NO.49
when Washington Irving bestowed the title on the New York of 1807. They looked up the strange term and found that Gotham was an English village whose inhabitants, renowned for their stupidity, were the butt of English humor as far back as the middle ages. It was typified in the famous nursery rhyme of later date recording the voyage of the three wise men of Gotham in a bowl. Even later, in the early part of the eighteenth century, Londoners laughed over the scenes and incidents of a popular farce, "A Gotham Election."
But Washington Irving has been forgiven. The name has been accepted, while the New Yorkers have declined to apply the fable to themselves. Much the same has been the fate of "Knickerbocker." Irving saw that name on a sign and rejoiced in it because it was so provoking of the risibilities of the reader. Old Dutch New York felt itself satirized and resolved to oestracize Irving—as a contemner of the aristocracy. Afterward it grew calm, and concluded that the Knickerbockers didn't typify the old Dutch families of distinction, being, in fact, very bumble folk with an odd patronymic that tickled a humorist's fancy. Now the New Yorkers are proud of being "Knickerbockers" because they esteem Irving at his worth as the kindiest, sunniest of humorists, and one of the most lovable of men who when he laughed laughed good-naturedly.
Too Much Bustle at Bowdoin.
At some public exercise in the college hall of Bowdoin, in years gone by, a stylishly dressed young woman took her seat in the front row of the gallery, and gave her undivided attention to picking out her "best man" in the crowd below. This was before the days of the "don't-you-hear-it-snap" fasteners, and in sitting her draperies became so disarranged as to disclose to view a dress distender of primitive make, viz., a little roll stuffed with sawdust.
An alert "freshie" conceived the idea of reducing the size of this by a thrust of his penknife, which caused quite a ripple of excitement among his confreres. President Goodwin, annoyed at the disturbance, arose from his seat on the platform and remarked, severely: "There is too much bustle in the gallery."
"That is just what we are trying to prevent, sir," replied the audacious freshman.

THE STATESMAN. DENVER. COLORADO.
HERE IS A LIST OF THE PRINCIPAL CHURCHES ON EARTH AND THE NAMES OF THEIR FOUNDERS.
The Lutheran church was set up by Martin Luther (an excommunicated Catholic priest), in Germany, A. D. 1524; the Presbyterians by John Knox (a bad Catholic), in Scotland, A. D. 1560; the Episcopalians by Henry VIII. (a bad Catholic king), in England, A. D. 1534; the Congregationalists by Robert Brown (a bad Catholic), in England, A. D. 1583; the Baptists by Nicolas Stark (a bad Catholic), in Germany, A. D. 1531; the Baptists by Roger Williams (a bad Catholic), in America, A. D. 1639; the Methodists by John Wesley (an Episcopalian), in England, A. D. 1739; the Seveen Day Adventists by conference (various Baptists), in America, A. D. 1833. All of the other churches now in existence are branches of the above named churches. But the Holy Catholic Church was set up by Jesus the Christ at Jerusalem in the year of 33, and will last till the end of time. There is no man living who can prove these statements to be other than true. Now, to which church do you belong—the one Christ set up or one of those set up by man?
Christ founded only one Church—not churches—and made St. Peter the first pope or president.—St. Matt. xvi, 18-19. Sunday was dedicated by the Holy Apostles to the more particular service and honor of God.—Acts xx, 7. Christ gave His Holy Church power to bind and loose from sins on earth.—St. Matt. xvi, 18-19, St. John xx, 22-23.
The Catholic Church administers the seven holy sacraments instituted by Christ: first, baptism, the new birth—St. John iii, 5; second, confirmation, the growth or mark in the forehead—Acts viii, 17; third, Holy Eucharist, the nourishment—St. Matt. xxvi, 26; fourth, penance, the medicine or confession—St. John xx, 22-23, I. St. John, i, 9-10; fifth, holy orders, the Christian priesthood—St. John xx, 21, I. Cor. vii, 32-34; sixth, holy matrimony, the Christian family—Eph. v, 31, St. Mark x, 9-11; seventh, extreme unction, the journey of the soul, or anointing for death—St. James v, 14, St. Mark vi, 13.
Christ's Church is Catholic or universal and is for all nations or races alike—St. Matt. xxviii, 19-20, St. John x, 1-16. Those who worship outside of the Holy Church of Christ are worshiping in vain.—St. Matt. xv, 8-9. Christ's Holy Church is called Roman Catholic in honor of St. Peter, who was our first pope and bishop of Rome, and the Holy Church teaches veneration to the blessed Virgin Mary, who is truly the mother of God the Son—St. Luke i, 1-48. Indulgencies—II. Cor. 2-10; purgatory—St. Matt. xii, 32; holy water—Num. v, 17; use of the sign of the cross—I. Cor. i, 18; use of holy images—Exod. xxv, 18; Num. xxi, 8. Outside of the True Church there is no salvation—St. John x, 1-16. Christ said: "He that will not hear the Church, let them be to thee as the heathen and the publican," therefore you dear readers should go at once and ask the priest to instruct you so that you may become a Catholic Christian of the one true fold of Christ and save your soul. The priests will receive you kindly, no matter who you are. Always address the priest as father.

On June 26th at Stratton's park the Entre Nous club gave a picnic in honor of one of the club members, Mrs. Minnie Bailiff of Benton Arbor, Michigan, who left the city Sunday night, en route for her home. The club members and a few invited friends, Miss Stella Bush, Mrs. Jones and daughter of Little Rock,. Arkansas; also Mrs Green of Chicago, Miss Payne of Glascoc, Missouri, composed the picnic party. All present expressed themselves as having had an enjoyable day. In memory of the event burros were obtained and pictures made of the happy crowd.
On the 13th, it has been announced through the columns of the local papers, that the citizens of Colorado Springs would give to Dr. Gladden a farewell reception. Up to date the citizens know but little of such an honor. The position to which Chaplain Gladden has been appointed is of too great importance to be misrepresented, and on whose shoulders his mantle is to fall the people will determine.
Last Saturday evening a surprise party was tendered Miss Antia Jasper, who left for Denver the following Tuesday to spend a few days.
Monday afternoon a merry party tool: a trip over the Mesa road, through Glen Eyrie, the Garden of the Gods, Manitou and all points of interest.

Luther and Carroll Rumford and Garrie Buckner.

LIGHTNING NOT SO FAST.
Flyer Beat at Every Stroke and Arrived Ahead of Time.
Returning from Chicago a few nights ago Del Valentine was on a fast train when it ran through a big storm. It was going so fast that it was always at the next mile post. "The train slid into the storm," he says, "and was passing out the opposite side when a zigzag streak of lightning on the outer edge took a shy at the engine just for luck and to put a competitor out of business, probably. It was a miscalculation and hit the ground more than 200 feet to the rear, tearing up sand and gravel like a mad bull in a dry river bed. Before the train could yank its full length from under lightning again tried its luck, this time mad and spiteful and in a hurry. But the engineer had caught on and in a joking sort of way jerked the throttle open a little wider. The train was fairly flying by this time, screaming and hissing, bellowing and blowing in defiance of wind, thunder, rain and lightning. Again she missed, though only by fifty feet or less this time. The passengers were getting scared a little, though they realized no ordinary lightning could drop down on the roof while the engine was awake. But as the train tore from under the big cloud another streak tried its cunning. More agile and quicker than the rest, it caught in the coupling link on the rear of the hindmost car. There was red heat in a moment, sizzing, shrieks, and it sounded like cuss words all frightfully mixed up, and when the train pulled into the next station some jagged, dispirited, disjointed lightning dropped to the ground. The train went on seven minutes ahead of schedule on a six minute run."—Kansas City Star.
Longevity in Virginia.
"Mine is the prize state for longevity," said a Virginian who was registered at a Chestnut street hotel. "I can produce a list of nineteen former citizens and slaves of my state whose years when they died aggregated 2,241 years. Of the nineteen persons named the youngest when he died was 110 years old. Two lived to be 130, one to be 126, two to be 121, one to be 116, two 115, three 114, one 113, two 112, two 111, one 110, one 120, and one, a negro, lived to the ripe old age of 136 years. Of the nineteen persons only six were negroes; all the others were whites.
"While I am in the humor I will tell another one. There is, or was, a few years ago, standing on the banks of Neabsco creek, Virginia, a tombstone carrying probably the oldest monumental inscription in the United States. The date is 1608, and it is thought that the deceased was one of John Smith's men. This is the inscription: 'Here lies ye body of Lieut. William Herris, who died May ye 16th, 1608; aged 65 years; by birth a Briton; a good soldier; a good husband and neighbor.'"—Philadelphia Press.

made to overflow, if—but that was the
pity of it!
“And so you won't forgive?” he
asked after a cold, cold pause in which
the silence penetrated to the window
panes and made them quiver noisily:
Mrs. Carter stirred her coffee with
daughty disdain and lips closed as
dghtly as those of the sphinx
“It 'd made a habit of this sort of
thing,” went on the culprit unhappily,
“T could understand why you are so
hard on me. But I never did such a
thing before in all our married life.”
A faint smile curved the corners of
the sphinx-like lips.
“lam perfectly aware of that,” was
the fey rejoinder.

“And I lost my month's salary

“But we have plenty in the bank,”
supplied his wife.
“And I broke my engagement with
you, i know——"
“T) e's nothing. I went anyway,”
interposed the lady,
Well, what in heaven——"
“Do you know what you did when
you came home?" Mrs. Carter spoke
the words slowly and impressively and
gazed at her husband over the coffee
pot with a look of accusation that
made him shudder.
“I don't know anything,” moaned
the ewprit.
“Yon tried to kiss my maid.”
Mr. Carter owened his eyes fa un
feigned astonishment.
“I—what?”"
“You heard what I sald, Mr. Car-
ter.”
“And is that what you're mad at?”
It was Mrs. Carter's turn to open
her eyes.
“That! That!" she cried. “Yon
speak of it as if it were nothing!”
Mr. Carter rose, slowly took his hat,
and, looking at his wife as if he had
never seen her before, went quietly
out into the cold morning air. Once
there, he rubbed his forehead thought
fully. Then shaking his head sadly,
he pursued his way down the street.
“Will we ever understand them?” he
muttered hopelessly. “Will we ever
understand them?” But no answer
came to him out of the morning air,
through which his fellowmen went
burrying by.—New York Press,

The biggest picnic that has left the Union depot this year was that given under the auspices of Zion Sunday school last Thursday. It was 450 strong and took seven coaches to carry them. It went via the Burlington route to Meadow park, which is an ideal picnic ground. There were numerous good features of the day's enjoyment, one being the catching of a minnow by S. H. Tarbet, who insisted upon his claim as the most successful Sherman; the conquest of the men by the women in the base ball game. The men claim that the women hypnotized them. There was the best of order all the way and all who went enjoyed themselves to the highest.

Tho Mecca Cafe is the leading col-
ored Cafe in the West, located at 1918
Lawrence street, run and conducted
by Mr. and Mrs. D. W. Lacey. In con.
nection with the cafe they have a re-
ception hall, the best Denver has ever
known up to this date. They also
have special string music on Sunday
and Monday evenings, which will con-
tinue all summer, for the pleasure of
the people of Denver and the visitors
as weli. They have invested more
money in fitting up a nice, respectable
cafe in Denver than any other cafe
opened in this city or ever will. We
are glad to say that the majority of
the colored people of Denver have
shown their appreciation of Mr. and
Mrs, Lacy by their good patronage.
Yet there are some who can be seen
in lineh cars and Chinese places in-
stead of going to a nice place which
has been fitted up for them. If the
colored people would patronize their
own places more, they would do better
business among themselves than what
they do today. Although Mr. an Mrs.
Lacy have spent thousands of dollars,
they are still willing to spend more for
the pleasure of the people of Denver
and visitors.
On last Sunday and Monday even-
ings the cafe was largely patronized by
the best people of Denver, among them
being the committee of the Knights of
Pythias from this city and Colorado
Springs. Arrangements wili be made
from this time on for musie by the
management.
The reception hall is beautifully
lighted with electric lights and the
floor will compete with any floor in
the city, decorated with palms and
cooled by electric fans. This is the
coolest place in the city. There is no

Where Licorice Grows.
~i do not suppose there ts a child in

man, “who doesn’t know what ‘lick-
rish’ is, as they usually call it, tough
it is spelled ‘iJeorice,’ and when it is
in the si’ck ferm they love to suck it
and get: mvth of its blackness on
their faces as they can. They are
futid of chewing the root, too, for it
bas a sweet and pleasant taste. But
I fancy that few of them know where
{t comes from and what it Is. It comes
from the countries lying along the
Mediterranean sea, and two milifon
dollars worth of it are used annually
in the United States, but not by the
kids. Most of it goes Into chewing
tobacco, though not a little is used in
various medicines. What we see in
the raw, is not a twig of a tree, as
some suppose, but a root of a very
pretty and dainty plant with green
and silver leaves. The roots are very
large and full of juice when green, but
they shrivel up as we know them,
when they are dried for market.
There are great licorice plantations in
the countries where it is raised, and it
is a source of much revenue to the
cultivators. Some effort has been
made to raise it in the south of Eng:

A TRAGIC FINISH.
A watchman's neglect permitted a leak in the great North Sea dyke, which a child's finger could have stopped, to become a ruinous break, devastating an entire province of Holland. In like manner Kenneth McIver of Vanceboro, Me., permitted a little cold to go unnoticed until a tragic finish was only averted by Dr. King's New Discovery. He writes: "Three doctors gave me up to die of lung inflammation, caused by a neglected cold; but Dr. King's New Discovery saved my life."

WHERE AUTOMATON WAS OFFER
No Satisfaction on Wreaking Vegeance on Machine. A certain western railroad which has not yet been "reorganized" by Wall street is still owned and operated by the blunt-spoken old lumberman who built it. Last year, after a particularly severe accident upon it, the agent of an automatic block signal system called and tried to get a contract for installation. The old lumberman examined the device attentively and seemed much interested.
"Your chief engineer recommends it highly," said the agent. "He told me to use his name with you, and he would see you later."
"Wall," said the lumberman, "I reckon it is a pretty machine. I like to sit here and see it work myself. It's so all-fired sure. But come to using it upon my road—now, young feller, I've been running a railroad some longer'n you, and I'll tell you something.
"Accidents is bound to happen about once in so often, no matter what you do. I've got three brakemen in jail now, and I've vowed to hang the next one, and the public is pretty well satisfied. But what satisfaction is it going to be for any one if I go to work and hang an old automatic machine?" —Youth's Companion.

DESCRIPTION: Made in all sizes. It is lively and easy riding, very durable and lined inside with a special quality of rubber, which never becomes porous and which closes up small punctures without allowing the air to escape. We have hundreds of letters from satisfied customers stating that their tires have only been pumped up once or twice in a whole season. They weigh no more than an ordinary tire, the puncture resisting qualities being given by several layers of thin, specially prepared fabric on the tread. That "Holding Back" sensation commonly felt when riding on asphalt or soft roads is overcome by the patent "Basket Weave" tread which prevents all air from being squeezed out between the tire and the road thus overcoming all suction. The regular price of these tires is $8.50 per pair, but for advertising purposes we are making a special factory price to the rider of only $4.50 per pair. All orders shipped same day letter is received. We ship C.O.D. on approval. You do not pay a cent until you have examined and found them strictly as represented.
We will allow a cash discount of 5 per cent (thereby making the price $4.55 per pair) if you send FULL CASH WITH ORDER and enclose this advertisement. We will also send one nickel plated brass hand pump and two Sampson metal puncture closers on full paid orders (these metal puncture closers to be used in case of intentional knife cuts or heavy gashes). Tires to be returned at OUR expense if for any reason they are not satisfactory on examination.
We are perfectly reliable and money sent to us is as safe as in a bank. Ask your Postmaster, Banker, Express or Freight Agent or the Editor of this paper about us. If you order a pair of these tires, you will find that they will ride easier, run faster, wear better, last longer and look finer than any tire you have ever used or seen at any price. We know that you will be so well pleased that when you want a bicycle you will give us your order. We want you to send us a small trial order at once, hence this remarkable tire offer.
COASTER-BRAKES, built-up-wheels, saddles, pedals, parts and repairs, and everything in the bicycle line are sold by us at half the usual prices charged by dealers and repair men. Write for our big SUNDRY catalogue.

Brave Act of Australian.
A signal act of bravery was recently performed by a school master named Vale in the recent great bush fire in Victoria, Australia. As the smoke and heat invaded his school house, where there were twenty-eight children under his charge, he procured wet blankets, and with these he covered the children at the same time placing molstened rags over their mouths and noses to prevent them breathing the choking fumes. But the fire crept in the building which began to blaze. Vale with the aid of his sons, placed the children in a pit, with their covering of wet blankets, and throughout the night he and his sons dragged water from the creek near by to keep the children wet. All were saved. Vale, who was badly burned, collapsed when the danger was past.
Fad for Animal Pictures.
"One of the things Kipling's genius can be credited with," said an art dealer, "is the creation of an unusual demand for animal pictures. Before he wrote his Jungle Book there was scarcely any demand for pictures of that kind; but nowadays they find such a ready sale that men who are animal painters pure and simple find themselves in clover, comparatively speaking.
"Seton-Thompson helped this thing along and the bickerings that have gone on between Burroughs, Thompson, Long and others, as to whether wild beasts think or not, have helped this game along immensely. We sell literally dozens of animal pictures nowadays to one that we sold before this nature business sprang into being from the point of Kipling's pen."

PURIFICATION BY FIRE.
Men and measures meet their crucial test where interests and principles are at variance. It must therefore be a source of pride to the great body of American citizens who are allied under the name of the Republican party that Congress, which has just adjourned, has so nobly neglected whatever advantage might have come to its individual members and legislated for the good of the whole people despite the impediments raised and the allurements offered by trusts. The railroads, who are commonly believed to be the sponsors for our legislative bodies, were powerless to stop the Panama canal or the rate regulation bill, the beef trust had to submit to government inspection, and, in short, the Republican party, through its congressmen, has vindicated its good motives and laid new hold on the title, "The Champion of the People."
This grand work was accomplished only after a hard fight with opposition both without and within the party. In like manner here in our own state, the differences of factions like the friction in Congress, can work out for the good of the whole state. Charges and counter-charges can precipitate a house-cleaning that will remove the weaknesses that are inherent in the party in power. We believe that the purification which usually comes to a party by being deprived of power by a "reform movement" will come to the Colorado Republican organization through the agitation and differences now going on in its ranks. If such a happy conclusion does come out of the present turmoil it will be the means of increasing party strength, for it will

assure all its elements a square deal. It will remove the probability of special interests using it for selfish ends. Colored voters are especially interested in the outcome, for it will mean to them that the state organization will line up with our friends all over the country to see that we receive the rights guaranteed to us when first we were the wards of the Republican party. It will mean that we will receive recognition within the organization as great as our deserts. With such an ending to our complaint, "What's the use of taking a hand in politics?" our support of Republican principles will be more zealous and will mean many more votes for party success.

MASONS' ANNUAL OUTING IN THE
BEST!! Park in the West
Right in the heart of town
PURPOSE OF THE PICNIC. Rocky Mountain Lodge No. 1. A. F. & A. M., purchased the property situated on the corner of Twenty-second and Arapahoe streets a little over a year ago. It has made payments on it up to nearly $2,000 already, and is pushing on with all speed in order to clear off the indebtedness so that it can erect a hall such as Denver needs for the accommodation of its lodges and entertainments. The public will be a benefactor by this enterprise and its assistance in this grand two-bit rally is asked.
The best idea of what Bloomfield park is like can be given from the statement that it rents for $75 per day, and is the official park to be used by the Elks in their grand assembly this month. It is an old park fitted up with every convenience for such resorts that is now for the FIRST TIME open to colored people. It is right in the heart of town, just on the other side of the Platte river on West Thirteenth avenue. It is walking distance from the postoffice, accessible by the Lakewood & Golden cars, or by the Larimer street car going west. The latter takes you within three blocks, the former right to the gate. Only four minutes' ride. Seven-minute car service all day and night. Electric lights transform night into day. A fine lake, not a stagnant pond such as you find at former resorts. A well kept up grove. Three blocks from the end of the Larimer street car viaduct.
SPECIAL FEATURES.
Did you ever bowl? Well, come out Monday and try your hand. This is your chance.
THE PARK.
THE PAVILION.
To those who know the good and bad points about the pavilion at Rocky Mountain lake, it is sufficient to say that this one is larger and more commodious, with a better floor and accommodations, such as cloak and check rooms. The orchestra will be able to give first-class service.
THE COST.
Twenty-five cents is the admission at the gate. Car fare is 5 cents each way. Remember that transfers are given to the Larimer street line from and cars in the city.
GOOD ORDER.
The entertainments of this lodge have never been marred by any disturbances. They have always attracted the class of pleasure seekers who respect the rights of others. There will be police protection in the person of two colored officers.
THE ATTENDANCE
From the advance sale of tickets it is safe to assert that with good weather there will be 2,000 people attend during the day. Bring your basket. If you do not want to bring it, come out and we will provide the feast.
GRAND BARBECUE
Meat of all kinds—whole beef, sheep and hogs will be served, barbecued right on the ground by Herron and Elam with plenty of other kinds of food at city prices. Refreshments of all kinds.

"SPIRAL" RAILROADS IN AFRICA
Engineers Have Successfully Overcome Unusual Difficulties.
In the construction of the Amabele-Butterworth railway, in Cape Colony, unusual difficulties had to be surmounted, and the result is, from an engineering point of view, one of the most remarkable railways in existence. After passing through the Kel hills the line winds round another hill, and then, at the lower level, goes under its own track. This portion of the railway is known as the "spiral." At another point the line travels along the bank of the Mangulu river for two miles and then doubles back for a mile and a half, so that after covering three and a half miles the train is really only half a mile to the good. This section is called the "zigzag," and, with the spiral, is unique in South Africa. All along the Kel heights the route is through cuttings or on embankments. Some idea of its extraordinary character may be formed from the statement that in eighteen miles the line falls, or rises, to the extent of 1,560 feet.—Pall Mall Gazette.
How Harry Vardon Started in Golf.
Harry Vardon, the English golf expert and one of the best players ever known, began to play golf when but a mere boy. His fondness for the game did not meet with parental approval, and no money was forthcoming for clubs or balls, so the boy interested his fellows in the game, and they laid out a four-hole links on some waste land and manufactured their own clubs.
White marbles had to serve as balls, and, as few of them had opportunity to play in the daytime, most of the games were played when the moon favored. One of the players was sent ahead to mark the place where the balls fell, and then would return to the tee for his own stroke, while the others watched for him.
It was several years before they came into the possession of real clubs and balls, given them by older golfers, for whom they caddied, but the training on the miniature tee with marbles for balls had given Vardon a start which at twenty-five made him the champion professional player
