Miss Novella Patton was the pleasant hostess at a flinch party last Friday week. Everything was conducted as only Miss Patton has the art. to do. These fortunate enough to be present were: The Misses Smith and Scott, Mrs. C. J. Walker, and Messrs. Steele, Johnson, Mathews and Handy.
Mrs. C. J. Walker returned home after a ten-days' stay in our city, Friday. She was very successful in her business, having worked up a class of forty-five. She will make monthly visits to Trinidad.
It comes to our ears that one of our young men, who was filling a position of trust, betrayed the trust placed in him and made way with some goods, thereby closing forever the door of opportunity to himself, and any other member of our race who might be capable of filling the position. This example should spur us on to the fact that we should at all times so conduct ourselves as not to cast any reflection on our honesty. Honesty covers a multitude of sins.

THE "SKILLED" MEXICAN.
Was Sounding the Car Wheels, but Didn't Know Why He Was
The inefficiency of Mexican labor was under discussion by a group of mining promoters.
"On my last trip to Mexico," said one, "while our train halted at Jimulco, a dinner station on the Mexican Central, I alighted and watched the mechanic who went from car to car sounding the wheels with a hammer, presumably to test their condition. He was a fair type of the native 'skilled workman.' Just to draw him out a little, I inquired.
"Why do you rap the wheels"
"Setting down his torch, he stared at me in amazement. 'Because the master mechanic tells me to,' he replied. 'But why.' I persisted. 'What good does it do?' 'I do not know, senor,' said he. 'The master mechanic tells me to strike each wheel, and I do so. That is enough for me.' "'How long have you been working at this job?' I asked.
"Two years,' he replied. For two years he had been going through the form of sounding the car wheels without the slightest knowledge of the object of the test or the slightest curiosity concerning it."

Always Stauncn And True
The Denver Republican has always avoided the fallacies and knaveries of yellow journalism, and its steadily increasing Circulation proves conclusively that its policy of telling the plain Truth without exaggeration or misrepresentation, standing iast for the Right, is heartily approved with growing force by the intelligent Public to which it appeals.
To read it is a liberal Education and the citizen who goes without it does a positive harm to himself, to his family, and to the community.
In no other way can the investment of 2 1/2 cents per day for that is all The Republican costs any subscriber-bring such rich results in that Knowledge which is both Power and Pleasure. Information, instruction and entertainment fill its columns and it leaves a good taste in the mouth of the reader.
It stands for Law and Order in the State-for Peace, Prosperity and Happiness in the Home. If you are not already enrolled among its splendid list of Patrons send on your subscription and give it a fair trial at 75 cents per month for Daily and Sunday.

CAMP LIFE OF THE SOLDIERS IN THE FAR WEST
MANEUVER CAMP,UNITEDSTATES ARMY. ISLAY. WYO.
To the Editor of the Statesman:
Please allow space in your paper for an article on the position, life and action of the brave boys in blue who for three months will be subjected to exposure, strenuous duty and risk of life.
I arrived in this place July 31st, making the journey overland of about thirty-five miles. The area of the government's land in this locality is nine by eleven miles, and the maneuvers are being held on a flat or plateau entirely surrounded by pole and table mountains. There are about 8,000 men in camp. It presents a grand spectacle and the most vivid imagination of one who never witnessed this part of the government's service can not portray the interesting scenes and knowledge to be gained by the opportunity I enjoy. Every department has its location, viz: headquarters, which consists of a suite of tents occupied by Brig. Gen. C. Williams, commander, and directly back of this is a row of about twelve tents of staff officers. Adjoining these, and a little to the south, are individual departments of attaches, military secretary, telegraph and telephone office, paymaster and postoffice. To the left of these is an officers' mess, which consists of a well arranged dining room, kitchen and cafe. You will pardon what may seem a display of vanity, when I inform you that my position is distinctly official. I have and conduct a neatly arranged two-chair barber shop for exclusive officers' trade, and my tent adjoins that of the dining room. All of the above is located on a high ridge and has a commanding view of the whole situation. The Eleventh, Twenty-eighth and Twenty-ninth infantry are nearest to headquarters and are so well arranged that they present in appearance a beautiful city of tents. I might add here that the sanitary conditions of the camp are perfect and surpass that of our best kept cities. The cavalry quarters are from one to four miles away and consist of the Fifth, Sixth and Tenth. The chief quartermaster's department is about one mile from headquarters and five or six large tents compose this branch. The maneuvering actively began last week, formations of infantry, galloping troops of cavalry, charging the enemy, retreat, etc., all went to enlarge our imagination to the extent of being on the battlefield. An amusing incident connected herewith was the perceptible

difference between militia and regulars. The militia mentioned was a regiment from North Dakota, and while in their marching, evolution and drillis they displayed the result of careful training, their awkwardness and mistakes was the cause of much merriment. There is plenty here to employ one's mind and attention, and everything is conducted in a very orderly and official manner. Band concerts are an agreeable diversion, and every evening about 7 o'clock we have a concert at headquarters. Of the several bands that have played the famed Tenth cavalry stands eminently in the lead. In the near future I will be glad to inform the readers of The Statesman of other interesting events that can only be seen on an occasion of this kind. I am enjoying good health and find that a diet of stewed beef, beef hash, boiled potatoes, bacon and beans three times daily, also coffee without sugar is just as palatable as a varied menu such as I sometimes enjoy when at home. The customs of camp life make it imperative upon me to maintain regularity in everything, hence I go to bed about 8 o'clock, rise at 5, breakfast at 5:35, dinner at 12, and supper at 6. The altitude at this point is something over 8,000 feet, yet I suffer no ill effects therefrom. The air here is pure and bracing and we have an abundance of cold spring water that seems to emit health and strengthen.
More anon. Very respectfully. T. EDWARD GRAY.
GIVE SCHOOL CHILDREN MEALS
French Authorities Allow None of Them to Go Hungry.
In Paris the city government gives every school child one full meal a day. This does not tend to pauperize the children or to lessen the responsibility of the parents; for all those who can afford to pay for the meal are expected to do so. On the other hand, no jealousy or contempt can be felt by the richer children for their starved comrades; for all are supplied with the same metal token, which has to be given up in exchange for the meal. The "cantine scolaire," as this municipal soup kitchen is called, is not confined to Paris. In the provinces, the "soupe scolaire," its equivalent, has sent up the school attendance by leaps and bounds. Here, however, instead of paying for their midday meal, all those who can possibly do so are encouraged to bring to school their handful of vegetables and the like and the contributions are all put into the common soup.

Almost Too Big to Fry.
The capture of a monster sea perch has been just recorded on the Hooghly river, in India. It measured nearly seven and one-half feet in length, and in girth behind the shoulder a little more than five feet nine inches, its weight being 460 pounds. It was old and worn looking, from 500 to 600 circles, arranged mostly in groups of eight, being visible on the scales, which suggested an age of 60 years or more.
Fact Worthy of Day.
April 1, 1712, Lord Bolingbroke stated in parliament that in the great contest called the "glorious wars of Queen Anne," the duke of Marlborough had not lost a single battle, and yet the French had carried their point, the succession to the Spanish monarchy, the pretended cause for so great an enterprise. Dean Swift called this statement "a due donation 'or all fools' day."
Excellent Rule for Living.
Consider this maxim of a Roman Emperor: "Take care always to remember that you are a man and a Roman; and let every action be done with perfect and unaffected gravity, humanity, freedom and justice." That is the type of the true man, who is always able to confront life, in any and all of its aspects, with a cheerful countenance and an undaunted spirit.
The Plain-Spoken Man:
From all time the man who boasts of his plain-speaking has been voted a bore and a nuisance, not because he hurts susceptible feelings or because he calls a spade a spade, but because at heart he is a victim of his own everwhelming conceit and too fond of hearing his own voice and his own opinion.—Exchange.
Choristers Who Pay.
The choir in the parish church of Walker-on-Tyne, England, is probably the only one in the country where the members pay for the privilege of leading the singing. It consists of males only, and their fees sometimes amount to more than the contributions of the rest of the congregation.

FORD'S
HAIR POMADE
Formerly known as
"OZONIZED OX MARROW"
SO
STRAIGHTEN
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; 3 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 over or breaking off, makes it grow and, by nourishing the roots, gives it new life and vigor. Being elegantly perfumed and harmonious, it is a tribute necessity for ladies, gentlemen and children.
Ford's Hair Pomade ("OZONIZED OX MARROW") has been made and sold continually since about 1918, and label "OZONIZED OX MARROW" was registered in the United States Patent Office, in 1918. In all that long period of time there has been a bottle returned from the hundreds of thousands we have sold. FORD's Hair Pomade remains sword and effective, no matter how long you keep it. Be sure to get Ford's as it no makes the hair STRAIGHT, SOFT, and PLIABLE. Beverage of imitation. Remember that Ford's Hair Pomade ("OZONIZED OX MARROW") is put up only in 80 oz. size, and is made only in Chicago and by the genuine has the signature, Charles Ford Press, on each package. Refuge all others. Pull directions with every bottle. Price only $8 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 $8 cts. for one bottle postpaid, or $1.65 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, and mention this paper. Write your name and address plainly to

THE WORLD'S FINEST MUSICIAN
Mrs. Perkins two years ago.
Colorado Springs, Colo., Aug. 5, 1906. When I began using Mrs. Perkins' scalp treatments on the 6th day of March my hair was very harsh and stubborn—what little I had, as my head, in places, was perfectly bald, and not a trace of hair could be seen, and my scalp was a mass of dandruff. Now my hair is nearly all in and not much dandruff. I am proud to say that I can ball all my hair. I am perfectly satisfied with my hair, and anyone who takes these treatments will obtain satisfactory results if they follow the directions. Respectfully yours, NINA HOWARD. 726 S. Weber St.

O. writes: "For several months I was given up to die. I had fever and ague, my nerves were wrecked; I could not sleep, and my stomach was so weak from useless doctors' drugs, that I could not eat. Soon after beginning to take Electric Bitters, I obtained relief, and in a short time I was entirely cured." Guaranteed at all druggists; price 50c.

The thirtieth annual communication of the Masonic Grand Lodge for this grand jurisdiction convened in Pueblo Monday and held for three days, concluding with grand installation and public entertainment at the Mineral Palace under the direction of Rising Sun and Ashby lodges. The officers who will act for the ensuing year are: M. W. G. M., P. H. Gipson of Pueblo; R. W. D. G. M., E. C. Tumlin of Denver; R. W. G. S. W., George W. Cottwell of Victor, Colorado; R. W. G. J. W., H. C. Parsons of Butte, Montana; R. W. G. Treasurer, J. R. Contee of Denver; R. W. G. Secretary, William Sprague of Denver; grand trustees, P. J. Barnard, T. R. Herron and William Russ of Denver. In many respects this session was one long to be remembered, as it was the most harmonious that has been held in years. Through the action of a good business-like administration, the relief fund has withstood even the unusual strain put upon it this year, more than $800 being paid out. Financially the grand lodge has shown gain over any previous over any previous record. Delegates were present from most of the lodges, Denver being the largest out-of-town delegation. They were all handsomely cared for by the local committee in charge. In fact, Pueblo hospitality was general and thorough-going.
Two very important measures came up for consideration. The one resulted from the failure of a security bonding company to grant adequate security, as was expected of it, and was to the effect that bonds could be made as formerly signed by good, reliable property owners. The other was the refusal to hear at this session the petition of Charles Robinson to be freed from his sentence of expulsion which was placed upon him a few years ago for the grossest unmasonic conduct. The significance of this petition and the treatment it received is that until recently Robinson has denied the right of the grand lodge to expel him and his petition is a confession that he was legally dealt with.
The next meeting place will be in Denver and the local brethren expect to show the delegates how it is to be done in entertaining. The retiring administration has been one that has won praise from all sections of the jurisdiction. From chaos order has come and the defalcations of a few years ago, the loss of many members in the Hanna disaster have only served to make the triumphant record of this year the more splendid.
A Touching Story
In the saving from death of the baby girl of George A. Eyler, Cumberland, Md. He writes: "At the age of 11 months, our little girl was in declining health, with serious Throat Trouble, and two physicians gave her up. We were almost in despair, when we resolved to try Dr. King's New Discovery for Consumption, Coughs and Colds.

Bright Dogale.
M. M. Williams, of this place, has a very fine thoroughbred Fields water spaniel (imported) that is truly a wonder in his way, says the Titusville (Fla.) Star. He can do almost anything except talk, and is able to find a lost article on being sent for by his acute sense of smell. An illustration was given a member of the star staff, who witnessed an exhibition of his acuteness in this direction recently. Mr. Williams took from his vest pocket a good sized roll of bills, and, going away from his dog a distance of 150 yards, hid his money and returned. Upon being told to bring it back, the spaniel went straight and returned immediately to his master with the lost greenbacks intact, not a single bill missing. This fine specimen of canine intelligence recently recovered a very valuable and highly prized gold hunting case watch for Isaac Jenkins, a very heavy grain buyer of Jacksonville.
Saves All Her Gold Coins.
It is said by her most intimate friends that Lillian Russell has never been known to spend a gold coin. In the years of her stage career she has accumulated a large number of gold pieces of every description, and they are treasured as carefully as her jewels.
This practical boarding of gold by the actress is not due to any superstition, but to a sentiment of some peculiar nature. During the tours of the former Weber & Fields company to the Pacific slope the actress received a large share of her weekly salary in gold. Every coin was dutifully added to the collection, which has now assumed the proportions of a modest fortune.

The killing of Ernest Shafer last
Saturday morning by a white man
named Carpenter, and the subsequent
clearing of the murderer by the cor
oner'’s jury, are the sole topic of con-
versation in Denver. The mystery sur-
rounding the motive of the murderer
and the slam-bang way in which the
case has been disposed of, no less than
than the general grief which is felt
over the death of a genuine good fel-
low, whose list of friends was legion
and enemies but few, have made tt
clear that the whitewashing which the
case has received will not avail to
keep further proceedings from being
resorted to to see that justice is done.
Colorado is not the backwoods wherein
an argument is to be decided by shoot-
ing down an inoffensive man. All the
facts in the case go to show that there
Was no attempt at attack made by
Shafer and that he was shot in the
back without having even a chance to
defend himself or without sufficient
warning to take refuge in flight.
Rumor is so busy with the evidence
that one dares not rely on what is be-
ing noised on the streets, but on the
showing that Shafer had no weapon
drawn, and was shot in the back, show-
ing that he made no attack whatever,
Carpenter should be held and the dis-
trict will fail to see that justice is done
if he allows this case to go without
attention. It is not so long since
a Negro was killed on the West Side
by a white man, who received only six
menths in the county jail, though the
murdered man was unarmed. What
we want to know, is whether the color
of a murderer's skin is sufficient excuse
for killing if he be white and the vie:
tim colored. ©
In this connection it is to the credit
of the colored Elks, of whom Shafer
THE STATESMAN, DENVER, COLORADO.
was the persiding officer, that they are
leaving nothing undone that will
gather evidence and tend to convict
Carpenter, To the publie mind this is
a clear case of unprovoked killing
without any justification, unless the
alleged rough answer that Shafer made
to Carpenter is accepted as excuse
for taking life. It is too flimsy a tale
to believe that a man who is known
throughout the community as a well-
behaved and gentlemanly fellow, with
a reputation for industry and sobriety,
whose worst enemy would not say that
he was touchy or quarrelsome, would
take sufficient offense at being called
by another man’s name to make an
assault that would justify killing him.
Even granting the tale, it still is un-
reasonable that Shafer would go to his
house for a gun and then pui it in his
inside pocket and trust to his fists and
tougue against “burglars.”
Long Loan of a Crowbar.
Old Ned Prouty of Norway, Me.,
fised to be very fond of borrowing
tools from his neighbor, Joe Hosmer,
and never returned any of them. He
had borrowed all except a crowbar,
and one day he asked for that. Hos-
mer said to him: “Weli, Ne®t, [will
fend you the crowhar, and you kin
keep ft till all etarnity If you'll only
bring it back when you're done with
in.”
Sweetened.
“Dearest,” he said, “do you know
that the average consumption of sugar
in this country is seventy-five pounds
a year?”
She caromeled an inaudible reply.
“Well, it is,” he went on; “and 1
figure on the basis of the five-pound
boxes I bought that last year you got
195 pounds ahead of the average.”
“No wonder you call me ‘sweet-
heart,’” she marsbmallowed gleefully,
‘and ate on, ‘

Poor Seamanship.
Charles Frohman, in a discussion
of plays and playwrights, said:
“The budding playwright shows an
amazing ignorarce. The stock mar.
ket, the gold flelds, diplomacy, war—
whatever he takes up, he mars with
glaring errors. Not till he has learn
ed his art does he perceive the essen-
tial need of accuracy,
“The other day I read a manuscript
play dealing with the sea. Such sea-
manship as the author displayed!
“The captain shouted in the sec.
ond act to the mate:
“‘*Are you bringing in the blunt end
or the sharp end of this ship?”
“And in the third act, when the
mate wanted the ship stopped be
yelled:
“"Whoa, whoa!'”

The hasty call from perfect health to
the everlasting home, the grief of the
breathren who loved him, the bereave
ment of the wife and aged mother and
sister, the hush of the hundreds who
kuew and respected him, lent solemn
ity and paths to the ccremony, such as
is seldom witnessed. After the re-
mains had been reviewed by more than
a thousand people, they were escorted
to Fairmount cemetery,
It was the largest funeral that has
been seen in the city for years. The
alrangements were perfect. The cas
ket was purple and of the couch pat

ferings of flowers. The body was
buried with all the regalia and amid
the fullest honors of the order.
In his death the community loses
an industrious citizen, who has been
connected with the various business
enterprises of Henry Finn for years.
In all this time no word, even of sus:
picion, has attached to him, and his
untimely demise was so unexpected as
to leave not even words in which to
digenss it.

It was ninety feet long and twenty
Sve feet in thickness, and evidentiy
‘whale from the mention of its blow
holes, and the fact that instead of
‘eeth “there grew to his palate above
1,000 plates of horn, hairy on one

that it had “three bellies like vast

were very great.” On Aug. 28, 1736,
