MAKE THEIR REPORT PUBLIC Business Men Make Astonishing Report in Their Findings of Southern Outrages VOL. XVIII MAKE THE REPORT Business Men M Report in The Southern Atlanta, Ga., Dec. 28.—The committee of leading business men appointed to investigate the recent riots at Atlanta, and to disburse about $10,000 subscribed for families of those killed and injured, today made public a startling report. It finds that seven Negroes killed were innocent and concludes with the statement that "toughs have crucified Atlanta in the eyes of the world and shocked the moral sense of our own people. "Among the victims of this mob there was not a single vagrant," the committee says. "They were earning wages at honest work up to the time of the riot. They were supporting themselves and their families or dependent relatives. Most of the dead left small children and widows, mothers or sisters, with practically no means and very small earning capacity. "The wounded lost from one to eight weeks' time at 50 cents to $4 a day each. About 70 persons were wounded, and among these there was an immense amount of suffering. In some cases it was prolonged and excruciating pain. Many of the wounded are disfigured, and several are permanently disabled. "As twelve persons were killed and seventy were murderously assaulted, and, as by all accounts many took part in each assault, it is clear that several hundred murderers or would-be murderers are at large in the community. Although less than three months --- DENVER, COLORADO, FRIDAY, JAN. 18, 1907. have passed since the riot events have already demonstrated that the slaughter of the innocent does not deter the criminal class from committing more crimes. Rape and robbery have been committed in the city and suburbs since that time. The slaughter of the innocent does drive away good citizens—from one small neighborhood twenty-five families have gone. The crimes of the mob include robbery as well as murder. In a number of cases the property of innocent and unoffending people was taken as the result of four days of lawlessness. There are widows mourning for their husbands and husbands mourning for their wives. There are orphans, who cry out in vain for faces they will see no more. There are grown men disabled for life, and all this sorrow has come to people who are absolutely innocent of any wrongdoing. The element was allowed to crucify this community in the eyes of the world and shock the moral sense of our own people." New Orleans, La., Dec. 31.—That white men protected innocent Negroes, and that every effort is being made by the whites to punish these "hoodlums" of their own race who were responsible for the Christmas riots in Kemper county. Miss., is the information in detailed accounts arriving here early today from the little towns which were the scenes of the bloodshed. District Attorney Currie has made a public statement, in which he says: "I find upon investigation that the trouble was caused by a lot of hoodlums and outlaws, who openly violated all laws of God and man and decency. The four men killed Christmas day were not connected with the affair in any manner, and I am informed that the houses burned were occupied by Nengroes who were not even in sympathy with any of those connected with the outrages. The dispatches say that the total death list is probably twelve; that a mob element among the whites has mostly fled toward the Alabama state line, while Negroes, in terror, have gathered at Scooba and Walahak to place themselves under the protection of troops or of citizens. The killing of a Negro named Calvin Nicholson is referred to as "one of the most brutal which has occurred since the days of reconstruction." Nicholson was a Negro of the best class. While a posse was searching for a Negro named Simpson, who had killed a deputy sheriff, Alexander and two others rushed to the Negro, shielding him with their bodies. They protected him until overpowered, after which he was shot and his house burned. District attorney says he has fixed the blame for this murder upon three men, and will arrest them if they are still in the state. SPEAKS HIGHLY OR SANDERS The La Junta Daily Democrat has some good things to say of the manner in which the Conference Missionary, Rev. J. W. Sanders, has been conducting services there. It says: "Rev. J. W. Sanders, who preached yesterday afternoon in the Presbyterian church, is a man of more than ordinary ability. His sermon was certainly a masterpiece. It showed thought and care in preparation and research. His delivery was good and there was not a moment during the entire lecture that his hearers were not edified, as well as entertained. Smith and Johnson are doing a musical sketch at the Orpheum. It is a novelty in that it is more ambitious than such teams usually put on and is making a hit. They are both Elks and the social session of Rice lodge Wednesday night was in their honor. ```markdown ``` MAN NO. 27 NO.27 DEATH OF W. W. TAILOR Sad indeed was the news of the death of W. W. Taylor, editor of the Utah Plaindealer, who died at his home in Salt Lake City last Friday from a prolonged attack of Bright's disease. Mr. Taylor was past grand master of the Masonic lodge of the Colorado jurisdiction, a thirty-third degree Mason of high standing, expresident of the Western Negro Press Association. He was a prominent member of the A. M. E. church, always lending every support to his church. He was the leading colored politician of Utah, having been a candidate for the state legislature on the Republican ticket in 1896 when his state went fusionist. Mr. Taylor held many political positions of credit at various times. He was a brilliant, aggressive, forceful factor among the leaders of his race and was widely known. He leaves a wife and five children, besides other relatives, to mourn his death. Many telegrams of condolence were sent Mrs. Taylor from this city. CANON CITY, COLO. Miss Dooie Wells left for Ludlow, Colo., to be gone several weeks. The infant daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Ellis Meeks is very sick with typhoid-pneumonia. Miss Lonada Moore was in Florence last week. Mr. Ed Johnson is on the sick list. Miss Jessie Wallace is in Ocean Waves, the guest of Mrs. Will Taylor. Mr. and Mrs. Brown's baby is sick with scarlet fever. The oratorical contest and recital to be given at Mt. Olive Baptist church Friday, Jan. 25, will be the most interesting programme of the season. Louis Thompson left Sunday night for Pueblo, where he has a position for Tucobio, where he has a position. The Canon Savings bank, which failed a year ago, paid off the last depositor this week. Mr. Thomas Yeiser and Mrs. F. Moore received their money. They were the only colored people that had large deposits. The Sunday services at Campbell church will be in charge of Rev. J. C. Bell of Salt Lake in the morning and of Rev. J. E. Williams of Scott church in the evening. --- RELIC OF BEN FRANKLIN. Toledo Woman Has Silver Cup Once Owned by Him. One of the most interesting relics owned in Toledo is a silver cup belonging to Mrs. J. Entwistle of No 620 Bush street and once the property of Benjamin Franklin, says the New York Herald. It was made under his supervision in Europe about 140 years ago, the date, as near as can be ascertained, being the year 1763. Mrs. Entwistle is the widow of Two Stickney, son of Maj. Stickney, one of the first settlers, in whose family the name of Toledo was first suggested. The cup is about six inches high and of solid silver. On it is this inscription: "Legacy by the will of Benjamin Franklin to Anthony S. Stickney." Anthony S. Stickney was the father of Maj. Stickney. The cup has descended from father to son and is now the property of Mrs. Entwistle, who has the precious relic in a safety deposit vault in one of our local banks. The workmanship on the cup is very fine and the wear of two centuries seems to have made no perceptible difference in its appearance. A fact concerning the naming of Toledo was brought to light when the history of the old cup was looked up. Many historians say the city was named Toledo by a man named Daniels. Records in the Entwistle home show that Toledo was named by the Stickneys. The history of Spain was being studied and when the name Toledo in Spain was reached Two Stickney suggested that the settlement then called Vistula and Port Lawrence be named Toledo, as there was no other Toledo in the United States. From this, it is said, the name of Toledo came. SEE-SAW GAME IN KOREA. Pastime Conducted in Somewhat Peculiar Manner. Korean girls are fond of playing at see-saw. A bag full of sand, about a foot in thickness is placed on the ground. Across this is placed a plank, and stretched alongside, at a proper height for children to grasp and steady themselves by, is a rope. The young Koreans do not sit down, as English or American girls would do, but stand erect on the ends of the plank. One gives an upward spring, and, as she alights on the board, gives the other a skyward toss, who as she alights in turn, throws the first girl aloft a little higher. And so the sport goes on until in their upward flight each girl is thrown two or three feet into the air. Frequent rests are necessary, but the pastime is the occasion of much merriment.—Philadelphia Record. Old And in the Way. I sit in the chimney corner, an hear the young folks say: "The world is weary, of her—she is old, and in the way And a vacant chair were better—a solitary place— Than the palsied, wrinkled hands of her, and the tear-wet, furrowed face!" I nursed 'em at my bosom ere Life's sun went down the West; I sang Love's sweetest songs to them and rocked their hearts to rest; And now, that the sad times hastens—the closing of Life's day— I am only a useless woman—I am old and in the way! Thank God, it will soon be over—Life's sun is sinking fast; My feet are in the valley and I see my home at last! And I say, while the angels beckon, "Poor, and old, and gray. There is room for me in heaven, where I'll not be in the way!" --Frank L. Stanton, in Atlanta Constitution. THE STATESMAN. DENVER. COLORADO. STONE AGE MAN FOUND. Cave Dweller Burled With Flint Knives for Spirit World. The skeleton of a cave dweller, who Jourished somewhere between the old stone age and the new—anywhere between fifty and a hundred millions of years ago—has just been found in one of the famous caves at Cheddar, says the London Express. Just within the entrance of the cave owned by Mr. Gough there existed until a few days ago a low-vaulted passage, which led toward a hole opening out into a water-filled chamber. To drain the further end of the cave Mr. Gough had a trench cut to the water hole, and in doing so two layers of stalagmite had to be cut through. Between them was cave earth, and in this earth was found the skeleton of a man of enormous antiquity which the stalagmite had kept in an almost perfect state of preservation. The bones of the leg exhibit the flattening characteristic of the men of this remote period. The thick frontal bone of the skull and the bony projections over the eye sockets also add their testimony, while measurements made by St. George Gray, the well known paleontologist, give the man's height as 5 feet $5 \%$ inches. Beside the skeleton were found, laid with great care near the hands, a number of flint flakes and knives, indicating that the man, probably a headman of his day, had been ceremoniously interred and provided with all that he would need in the spirit world. It is probable that great numbers of such interments may be unearthed in this famous stone-age area, which embraces Cheddar, Workey Hole, Ebbor and around Tor Hill—all in the neighborhood of the great spring at Wells, in the vicinity of which in the early days of the earth there was a large settlement of the cave-dwelling hunting men. The Northwest Territory. The Canadian government has issued a census bulletin, which gives statistics as to agriculture in Alberta, Assiniboia and Saskatchewan, which united comprise the Northwest territory. The total area of these territories is 190,963,117 acres. Of this area, 75.99 per cent is unimproved. Field crops, exclusive of hay, occupy 53 per cent of the improved land, but only a fair beginning has been made with fruit trees and vegetables. The area of land in wheat, oats, barley, rye, corn, peas, potatoes and other field roots in 1891 was 194,773 acres, an increase in a decade of 333 per cent. Where Nelson Lost His Arm. This is an entry from the journal of the surgeon of the British warship Theseus (the dates are from July and August, 1797): "July 24 and 25—Admiral Nelson.

AT CAMPBELL CHURCH The three nights' entertainment, Women's Day Rally and Contest for the gold headed cane was a grand af fair from every point of view. All things considered, the musical and literary numbers were all that could have been expected. The tableau on Wednesday, the Old Folks concert on Thursday and musical on Friday elicited great applause. Mrs. L. A. Peach never appeared to better advantage. Prof. Harris' orchestra rendered some beautiful selections to the delight of all. Mrs. W. W. S. Dyett, being indisposed, could not appear on the programme Sunday. Mrs. L. A. Peach sang with great effect. Mrs. M. E. Riley read a paper, "Value of Women to the Church." It was a splendid production and was listened to with marked attention. Rev. W. W. S. Dyett was the successful competitor for the cane. The amount raised was over $100. R. Arbuckle is ill at 3443 Lawrence street with rheumatism.

Fore and Madison. Mr. B. W. Fields, in a few fitting remarks, awarded the prizes. NEW USES FOR HYPNOTISM. Able to Cure Alcohol and Tobacco Indulgence. A London hypnotist who says he is able to cure the appetite for liquor explains the method as follows: "I merely say, 'You will feel an intense antipathy to wine, beer and spirits; but, of course, this can't be done without their consent. One of our society told the son of a dipsomanias that if he drank he would be sick and for six years he has not touched liquor. It is the same with smoking. This same doctor had a patient who, whenever he was not eating or sleeping, was smoking. He therefore hypnotized him, saying: 'If you ever put a pipe or cigar into your mouth you will be sick.' He then woke him and watched him fill his pipe. He put it between his lips, but he became sick immediately. The patient has not smoked since, nor shown any wish to smoke. "Dr. Jung, of The Hague," says this hypnotist, "has treated forty-one drunkards, and has had nineteen complete cures. The suggestion aids in establishing self-control, not in establishing a mere negative feeling toward drink. Dr. Milne Bramwell has made twenty-eight cures, while Tokarsky of Moscow has treated 700 patients and had 80 per cent of cures. Fifteen to twenty suggestions are usually sufficient. Where drugs are believed in either by the patient or by the doctor improvement will follow. "Suggestion in the treatment of disease," he asserts, "has been strangely neglected, but it is our aim to have it restored. How much of the benefit is derived from faith and how much from psychic force we have yet to learn. Five thousand years ago India knew more about it than we do now." In the Tibetan Country. Here is a description of a country scene in Tibet, taken from Col. L. A Waddell's note book, "Lhassa and Its Mysteries": "From every hamlet the cottagers had swarmed out into their fields and were busily plowing and sowing in the glorious sunshine, forming plessing bits of color. The men were plowing with oxen gaudly bedecked with plumes of wool dyed glowing scarlet and blue, with long throat tassels of dyed yak's tails and harness of jingling bells, while close behind the plowers came the gayly dressed women as the sowers, scattering broadcast the seed from their baskets." "Good-By." "And they knew not that even then they were saying good-by."—From Somewhere. Brother, this one thing remember Underneath the arching sky: Known is every word of greeting, Any word may be good-by! Years ago in old Pompeii Said a lover, "Night is nigh;" Then the lava seared and covered, And those words were his good-by! Ah, how many say "to-morrow!" Flushing cheek and kindled eye, Touching whom, God's awful finger Of "to-morrow" makes "good-by! Should we not to those who love us Gentle be until we die? Known is every word of greeting, Any word may be good-by! —New Orleans Picayuna The brand that's always good" BAXTER'S BULLHEADS 5 CENT CIGAR The Baxter Cigar Co., Denver.

The Freemen Mining, Milling and Development Company of Colorado Springs, which has its offices in Room 1, McIntyre-Barnett block, and of which F. M. Roberts is secretary has the wonderful record of having disposed of the whole of the first block of shares which were put on the market at 5 cents. There were 50,000 in the block and a second lot is now offered, and though the price has been raised to 10 cents, 20,000 are already bargained for. This is a good company for the investor to keep watch on and a better one to put his money in. Great Falls, Mont. A blizzard, the worst one for many years, struck the city on Tuesday last. All freight on the G. N. and C. N. has stopped and the snow is still falling. A coal famine is likely. Cattle are suffering and ranchers are uneasy. Cold weather has caused the meetings to be closed for a few nights. A good deal of sickness prevails among the people. Mr. J. D. Gainey, a mail clerk, was brought home from his train the other day suffering with appendicitis. His condition is such that an operation will be performed as soon as his strength will permit. Miss Berdella Johnson is confined to her home with the la grippe. Mrs. Jessie Smith is expected home on Wednesday from the Columbus hospital. Mrs. Harry Johnson was taken home from her work sick last week. We are glad to have Mrs. Sam Jones with us again, after a brief illness. Mr. W. T. Taylor is recuperating. Many of the children are on the sick list. Last Sunday was Missionary day. A programme was rendered as follows: Song.....The W. M. M. S. Recitation .....Irene Knott Remarks.....Supt. J. W. Roberson Recitation .....Lucille Williams Recitation .....Cecile Knott Select Reading.....Maggie Williams A few remarks by the president, Mrs. H. E. Redd. The Sunday school made a donation of a ton of coal last week to the parsonage. As coal is hard to get, even for the money, we were very thankful. A light shower struck the kitchen of the parsonage last week. Thanks. Call again soon. Mrs. Redd served refreshments to a few ladies and gentlemen after services Thursday evening. Last week was the week of prayer all over the land. Were you present? Verse. To talk with the wild brook of all the long ago; To whisper the wood wind of things we used to know When we were old companions, before my heart knew woe. To walk with the morning and watch its rose unfold; To drowse with the noontide, lulled on its heart of gold; To lie with the night-time and dream the dreams of old. To tell to the old trees, and to each listening leaf. The longing, the yearning, as in my boyhood brief. The old hope, the old love, would ease my heart of grief. The old lane, the old gate, the old house by the tree. The wild wood, the wild brook—they will not let me be; In boyhood I knew them, and still they call to me. —Madison Oawein, in the Criterion. War Prices in Japan. In spite of the war the average price of commodities in Japan was only 8 per cent higher in November and December, 1904, than in the same months of 1908. THE STATESMAN, DENVER, COLORADO. LETTER EASY TO ANSWER. Youth Made Mistake in Using Labor Saving Device. A young man was deeply in love, but his advances were very coonly received. In despair he decided to write a letter to the young lady, expressing his deep affection for her. He was by no means brilliant, and letter after letter was torn up in disgust. He dare not ask his friends to write for him, for he knew them to be quite capable of turning the whole matter into a joke. At last he hit upon the plan of buying a book of letters. On the finest white paper he carefully copied out the model letter on "Declaration of Love." The girl, who was very lively, was much amused, and showed it to her friends, one of whom informed her that she had seen it before in print. The letter-book was found, to the intense delight of the cruel charmer and her friends, and the poor youth received the following crushing reply: "I have received your note. Turn over the leaf in your book of ready-made letters, and you will find my answer. Many thanks for saving me so much trouble in replying."—London Answers. MONEY IN VANILLA BEANS. Five-Acre Plantation Reporter Its Owner Independende The region about Tuxpam, in the state of Vera Cruz, Mexico, is the natural habitat of the vanilla vine. The land is cleared of underbrush and the vine cuttings, which should be about eighteen inches long, are planted beside siutable trees, left standing for the purpose. As soon as the joints commence to sprout they throw out tendrils, which cling tenaciously to the trees, and soon form climbing vines, which after three to four years commence to bear. In the fifth year the vine will be in full bearing, and will produce from fifteen to forty beans, each bean worth from 8 to 10 cents Mexican (3.82 to 4.77 cents United States); in certain years the beans have been known to sell as high as 18 cents (8.59 cents) apiece. The cured beans command a much higher price. It is estimated that a five-acre vanilla plantation will yield sufficient income to render its owner independent for the remainder of his life. House-Fly Carries Disease. The house-fly is, of itself, a great disseminator of disease, partaking and polluting as it does the food and drink of man, says a writer in Leslie's Monthly. Military authorities have noticed that officers whose tents were fly-screened suffered proportionately less from the attack of typhoid fever than did those whose tents were unprotected. The latter seems well nigh impossible, but one of the two must be done. The mosquito carries malaria and yellow fever; the rat carries the plague; the cat and dog, hydrophobia; the hog, trichino; the sheep, cattle and horses, anthrax and glaucers; and they all carry tuberculosis.

The Belgian postoffice authorities have hit upon a novel idea. Every postage stamp has a slip attached to it which may or may not be used, at the option of the person who posts the letter. This slip is worded to the effect that the communication § to which it is attached {s not to be de. Ivered on Sunday. On all stamps of every denomination this notification fs to be found, and the consequence is that there is growing up in Belgium @ tendency !n the direction of having no letters or newspapers—for news- papers are mostly delivered by rost— oa Sunday. a aa Mrs. Eva Minen of Denver was the guest of her mother, Mrs. Tumlin, last week. The Age of Pretense. Pretense {s one of the fashions of the time. Pretense is becoming 80 perfected and so general that if a per- son should put off all pretense he would run the risk of being charged with affectation. Next to having, the best thing now- adays is seeming to have. There is really some foundation in reason for this kind of pretense, since {t has be- come the fashion of the world to measure a man’s success in life by the dollars he has made. Here is a cable message which tells of a new phrase of pretense: “Paris—The existence of a new and curious business in Paris has just transpired. This is the hiring out of wedding presents to brides, so that they may impress their friends and their acquaintances with the number aad value of their gifts. Jewelry, lace, furs, ete., are lent out for a con- sideration, and after they have served their purpose and been duly chroni- cled in the newspapers they are re- turned to the owners. It appears that a well-known Paris jeweler does a large business of this nature.”—-Wash- ington Star. Fools All the Doctors. “There is a hale and hearty looking old chap walking about town,” re- marked a New York physician lately, “who for years has had a complica- tion of diseases which make him most interesting to the profession. The ailments of which he shows undenia- ble symptoms are rarely seen in com- bination and the state of his inner workings {s a matter for speculation among the doctors who have examined him. “The old fellow himself loves to tell that when he first asked medical ad- vice, some twenty years ago, the phy- sician, a famous practitioner In those days, wrote across the diagnosis he had put down on paper: ‘This man cannot live thirty days. I should like to be present at the autopsy.’ That great doctor has been dead these many years and the dying patient still smiles cheerfully and seeks a cure for his malady. Queer, isn’t it?” Why He Paid the Fare. Three small boys who were in a crowded car going to a suburban ball game were discussing the effect the cost of the trip would have on their supply of pocket money, and reached the point where they were deciding if they wouldn't have to walk home if they had to pay to get into the grounds. “I won't,” declared one of the boys. “Why not.” asked his incredulous companions, The boy with the five- cent surplus jerked his head in the direction of a young man on the end of the seat and explained: “He paid my fare.” “Oh, I know what he did that for,” commented one of the youthful cynics. “He's after your sister."°—New York Press.

To Whom It May Concern: I am very much pleased with the treatment given me by the Common- wealth during my late illness. If I had my way all my friends would in- sure with them. Yours truly, (Signed) ELLEN MILLER, 2530 Welton. Scribainly Proved That He Needed No "Edification." A prominent Texas lawyer whose almy days were spent on the Northwestern frontier gives this passage from a sermon delivered by Rev. B., who once administered spiritual food to the cowboy of the plains; Rev. G. was no advocate of an educated ministry, and in one of his sermons delivered his views on that subject in this wise: "My friends, edification is no objection on itself, but it is a rank and smoking sin for servants of the Lord to waste years to get an edification when every day and every minit the devil needs roping and currying. As your minister and God's servant it is any duty to tell you the truth in its working jeans, and I find that to do that edification is not needed in my business. If you must have book edification, why pick it up while hoisting and raking in the Lord's vineyard, but don't steal the Lord's time to get it. No, in the minister edification is not needed at all to do the Lord's work, for He will put the right words into your mouth at the right time, and then you can spit out blazing truth easier and faster than a hungry trout can swallow minnows. Why, my friends, time and again when I got warmed up in the pulpit I have used words that I never heard of before, and as soon as meetin' was over men, and some of them edificated, too, would walk up and ask me: 'Brother, where did you get them words?' The next morning as the lawyer who preserved and stored in his memory that section of Preacher G——'s sermon approached the court house he saw this notice signed by a stockman sticking to the door: "I have 200 steer yearlings which say Brother G—— can outpreach my man west of the Brazos."—Werner, Texas, Mercury. Enoch Arden in Real Life. Cases of Enoch Arden in real life are not very frequent, but one occasionally appears. And the latest is in Connecticut. Five years ago Jacob Watrous was forced by poverty to leave home in the search of fortune. He found his way to the Klondike and recently made a rich strike. Waiting only long enough to realize a large sum of money, he returned to Meriden to join his wife and boy. He was driven to his former home in a carriage at night, with the intention of surprising his wife. Listening at the door he heard his intimate friend Turner call young Jacob to supper. The lad replied, "Yes, papa." in a filial tone. Making inquiries, Watrous learned that his wife, hearing of his death, had married his friend and was happy. At once resolving not to interfere with her happiness, Watrous left the place with the intention of going back to the Klondike. He urged those with whom he had spoken not to let the fact of his being alive become known to his wife, but of course, there were some who could not refrain from giving voice to so sensational a matter. Tarantula in Pulpit. At Georgetown, Demerara, a Metho dist minister, saw alarm in the eyes of his congregation. He paused in his sermon to find a large tarantula on the ledge of the pulpit. Nobody dared to move until a courageous deacon except up behind the deadly insect and killed it. THE STATESMAN. DENVER. COLORADO. TOLD TO BE A WOMAN. A Remark That Set a Groaning Man Patient to Thinking. "We men are frequently called cowards when it comes to enduring physical pain, and it may be we deserve it, for how often do we hear about a man not being able to suffer as much pain as a woman," said a treasury official, "but I never had the fact so forcibly presented to me as one morning last week. I had been suffering from my head for a few days and on my way to the office one morning last week determined to see the doctor about it, and did so. Contrary to all rules concerning a visit to the doctor, the pain became more intense instead of stopping or even getting better. "It may have been that my groans disturbed the patient for whom the doctor was prescribing in an adjoining room. At any rate, in a short time 'the door flew open and I prepared to pour my woes into his sympathetic ear. Instead I was greeted with: 'What in heaven's name is the matter with you, Jack? What are you groaning about?' "I tried to tell him, and, feeling rather ashamed of myself, made it a little worse than it really was. 'Is that all?' came back at me; 'well I'll get to you after while; you have a little cold, and for heaven's sake stop your moaning; brace up, and be a woman for once in your life.' "After that blow I remained quiet until it came my turn to seek medical advice. I then agreed with him that it was nothing but a slight cold, and he laughingly told me as I went out that he hoped that the last dose would be as beneficial as the first."—Washington Post Cotton Growing in Oklahoma. It is believed by many that the dry climate of southern Oklahoma and the southern district of the Indian territory is going to make that section the home for the finest grades of cotton. An item from Dennison, Tex., says: 'During the season it has developed that the cotton grown in the Choctaw nation was of an extra good fiber, grading above the average and in great demand for export. A great deal has been shipped to Germany and England. Indian cotton hereafter will command the top price."—Washington Times Would Consider the Other Place. In a small Missouri town there lives a good deacon who, despite his harsh, hoarse voice, always joins vociferously in the singing at church. In the same town is a little boy who has become the proud possessor of a gorgeous string of profanity, which he is very fond of displaying. His mother, finding her arguments had no appreciable effect in expurgating from the youthful vocabulary the objectionable words, sent him to the deacon, in whom she had all confidence, to see if the latter could not put a stop to the swearing habit. That dignitary pictured to the boy the beauties of heaven in vivid language, and then told him that those who take the Lord's name in vain can never enter there. The boy pondered a moment. "What do folks do in heaven, deacon?" he asked. "Oh, play harps and sing." "Are you going there to play harps and sing when you die, deacon?" "I hope to, son," replied the deacon, modestly. "Then what's --- like?" asked the boy earnestly, after some thought.

'Tween the old time and the new, I have sung heart-songs of you— You, lean stranger to all fear, Careless border cavalier. Now, old pard, that you are gone, And the gray and cheerless dawn Of a day, called Progress, comes, And the throaty engine hums Down the trails where you and I Made our camps, and watched the sky Drop its crimson sunset bars To a bunch of mav'rick stars— Then, oh, then, I cry aloud Curses on the white-faced crowd; On the heights of stone and wood, Standing where our sign-camps stood; On the jangle of the street, And each pale, worn face I meet On the coyote ways of men— Sharp of fang beyond our ken— Snapping o'er each other's bones, For a pile of yellow stones. Did we seek for gold or fame? No, we played a careless game; And on plunging ponies we Shouted back in mocking glee When in town the blue gun spoke Thro' a smiling wreath of smoke. Thus I dream and long and fret, For my heart will not forget— Not forget those old, red days Of the trail—its careless ways; Not forget—you know the sign— Answer me, oh, pard of mine. —Robert V. Carr. Mr. Noble's Promise Given. In the early stages of his ministry, the Rev. Mr. Noble preached for some time in a village in Maine.

"What does this mean, gentlemen?" asked the parson. "Why," replied the spokesman, with some hesitation, "the people have got the impression that you are inclining to universal salvation." "Gentleman," answered Mr. Noble, "I never preached that doctrine; but if I ever should, I promise to make the people of this town an exception." She Got Away. Howard Eckert, of the Greylock Hotel, Williamstown, tells a story of a woman stopping in Williamstown last Summer who was deathly afraid of cats. Before entering a drug store she carefully inquired of the soda water boy whether any cats were in the store or not. "No, ma'am," replied the boy, "there ain't none. But one bit a lady here last week." "My!" exclaimed the good woman. "Did they cauterize it?" "No," replied the boy, "they never caught her. She got away."—New York Times. Lucky Doctor.

(Signed.) MR. AND MRS. D. W. LACY. --- THE STATESMAN, DENVER, COLORADO. Last week there was an operative case of rather unusual character in a white family living at 2346 Curtis street in which the services of Dr. J. H. P. Westbrook were called. It was double placenta plevia, two cords and twins. This unusual condition developed only after the operation began and the history of medicine shows that only a small portion of mothers B DR. J. H. P. WESTBROOK so conditioned live. Yet Dr. Westbrook came out of the case with colors flying. This is his twenty-sixth case of operative surgery and he has not yet lost a patient. Though one of the younger physicians, he has had such wonderful success, not only in this branch of his profession, but also in the medication to effect a cure, that he ranks well for successful treatment.

Walker's Parlors 2317 Lawrence St. MISS LELIA McWILLIAMS, SUCCESSOR FORD'S HAIR POMADE Formerly known as "OZONIZED OX MARROW" SO STRAIGHTENS KINKY or CURLY HAIR that it can beput 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 hair straight, as shown about. 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 1855, and label, "OZONIZED OX MARROW", was registered in the United States Patent Office, in 1854. 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. We sure to get Ford's Hair Pomade as it makes the hair STRAIGHT, SOFT and PLABLE. Because of imitations. Remember that Ford's Hair Pomade ("OZONIZED OX MARROW") is put up only in 50 cts. size, and is made only in Chicago and by us. The genuine has the signature, Charles Ford Prest. on each package.

Serious punctures, like intentional knife cuts, can be vulcanized like any other tire. Two Hundred Thousand pairs now in actual use. Over Seventy-five Thousand pairs sold last year. 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 $5.50 per pair, but for advertising purposes we are making a special factory price to the rider of only $4.80 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.

Senator Tillman has given voice to the fear that is ever present in the minds of Southern whites when he declaims against the manner in which the president's action has aroused a wave of race feeling over the country. It takes no deep observation to see that Negroes have begun to strike back harder and harder and that they have resolved less and less to turn the other cheek. Tillman for once is right. The two races are in this country and no one but a dreamer looks forward to separation by deportation or extermination. It is good sense for both to do the things which will cause the least friction. The president has given the greatest impetus to the class that seek to do us harm by his treatment of the colored soldiers. We do not mean to say that he had any such purpose but such will be the effect. Northern people who do not live in the fevered atmosphere of the South and do not know what it means to have to maintain supremacy over an equal population of blacks by resorting to force, cannot sympathize with the appeal of the South Carolina senator for a cessation of class agitation. Just here is the meat of the whole race situation. Agitation, though it may at first may work harm to us, will hasten the day of adjustment of forces and in that equilibrium. if we survive the test, will be our real enfranchisement. The marriage of Miss May Mullins and Mr. Moore, formerly of the railroad service, is reported from out the city. Occasionally we have given offense to persons who have sent us news for publication because the matter was not published verbatim. This paper has for years given the freest possible use of its columns for news purposes and has made no charge for it. It therefore comes with bad grace for anyone to deny us the privilege of handling the news in such a manner as our finances, space and time will permit.

This is not meant to be a charge for news matter and will not be made where the space desired is ordinary in size. In this connection we wish to call attention to the necessity of closer adherence to the usual rules of correspondence for papers. Writing should be legible and on one side only. It is too much to ask that the editor decipher illegible writing and then convert it into good English. This is your paper and we are at your service, but ask that all persons remember that others have the same privilege. SIMON GUGGENHEIM, SENATOR. Colorado has at last chosen a Republican to take his place in the United States senate. The choice has fallen on Simon Guggenheim, a man who has been identified with one of the great industries of the state, and one whose Republicanism is such that we consider that the party is happy in its choice. Like all who succeed, he has been the target of envious business and political foes and goes into office after a fight from the opposition that was the more bitter because it was hopeless. The Statesman believes that he has given us, in all candor, his opinion on the public matters which he touched on in his address to the legislature. We therefore look for him to answer the slanderous attacks by actions, not words. He has been a builder in business and his constructive statesmanship will be sufficient answer for Colorado to partisan villification. He is a clean gentleman and we will believe in him until his own actions convict him of bad faith. So far as his colored constituents are concerned, we look forward to the pleasantest relations. Such has been the case in the enterprises with which he has been connected, and a man who gives us employment needs no recommendation to our good graces. TERMS. Denver Professionals The Statesman takes pleasure in introducing the following colored professionals and recommends them as competent in their lines. Show yourself a race lover by patronizing them. Be a booster. As citizens, as Republicans, we congratulate Senator Guggenheim on his preferment. Dr. E. L. FAULKN PHYSICIAN AND SURGFON. Richard Broad, the Colorado Warwick!

A London preacher had an interesting experience not long ago with a hungry man. The mendicant explained that he had found it absolutely impossible to get work.

The clergyman's heart was filled with pity. The poor man seemed to be honest, and after being furnished with a good meal he was asked where a message would reach him. He gave an address and went away. Then the preacher sat down to think the matter over. He knew of no work that he could find for the man, but he decided to invent a job. This gentle fiction could continue until something turned up, and in the meantime the unfortunate one would not have to be humiliated by knowing that he was living on charity. Accordingly the next day the preacher sent a message to the luckless man, saying: "Come at once. I have a position for you. We need a man to clean our schoolhouse and keep it in order." He received an immediate reply as follows: "Sorry I can't come. I have to march with the unemployed to-day. Would to-morrow do?" Phone Main 3044. Dr. E. L. FAULKNER, PHYSICIAN AND BURGFON.
