CALLED WEST ON BUSINESS PERICLES AND HIS TIMES MASTERED CONDITIONS EIGHTEENTH YEAR. CALLED W ON Hon. W. T. Vernon, register of the treasury, has returned to the city, having been called West for some little time on business of importance relating to Western University, at Quindaro, Kan., of which he is the president—now on indefinite leave. He was anxious to secure an increased appropriation for his school from the Kansas legislature, and went before the ways and means committee of both Senate and House, and secured the appropriation he asked for $55,850.00, $21,950.00 of this money is to be used for improvements—to install a steam heating plant, and electric service and to construct a central heating plant. The other moneys will be used for maintenance, $17,700.00 for the fiscal year ending 1908, and $16,200.00 for the fiscal year ending 1909. PERICLES AND H MASTI The Richards' Literary Club held its weekly meeting on last Thursday evening. The paper of the evening was read by Miss Helen Jones, subject, "Pericles and His Times." She traced the history of the Hellenic States from their inception to Pericles, recounting the struggles for democratic supremacy and showing how Pericles, the greatest statesman of his time, met and mastered conditions which seemed too hard for humanity to master. The value of the paper read by Miss Jones lay not so much in the illuminating facts of history which she presented, but rather in the excellence and purity of her diction, which was indeed worthy of a master. It will be many a long day before we will have the pleasure of listening to the language couched in the superb magnificence of Addisonian elegance. Mr. A. S. Pinkett read one of the orations delivered by Pericles upon the occasion of the consecration of --- DENVER, COLO., FRIDAY MARCH 15. 1907. at the school, and was pleased with the splendid conditions. While in Topeka he addressed the Lincoln Day Club, of which he has been president for the past two years. This meeting was held in the hall of the House of Representatives, and was attended by many members of the legislature. These and other things but attest the strength which Mr. Vernon possesses, and the esteem in which he is held at his home. It is proper to say here in this connection, that Bishop Abram Grant, the president of the board of trustees of the industrial department of Quindaro University, rendered valuable aid to Mr. Vernon in securing the appropriation above referred to. The Press Bureau extends congratulations to Mr. Vernon and will always be glad to mention with favor his wise and beneficent acts and sayings. the soldier dead on one of the famous Hellenic battlefields. The fact was brought out by him, that the real utterances of Pericles have not been preserved, but that Thucydides, a man of far less ability than Pericles, had preserved whatever of truth now extant concerning the great father of great orators and statesmen. The Richards Literary Club is bearing fruit. Already a Mary Church Terrel club has sprung up down in North or South Carolina, and a reading circle has been formed here as a result of this movement. Numerous other reading clubs are to be formed, and we are indeed happy to have been the aid toward the realization of the dream. Press forward, friends; the Richards' Club has set a precedent which you will do well to follow. It is a worthy example, and we feel that worthy people are sure to emulate it, with the same worthy motive that prompted its formation and preserves its young life. PREJUDICED AGAINST THE RACE. Admiral Baird, president of the board of education of the District of Columbia, hates colored people. He does not believe that one should be permitted to rise above a boot black. When he was superintendent of the State, War and Navy building he gave no consideration to the colored employes, and now that he sees them in high places, will do all in his power to destroy them, if he follows the prejudice which he harbors against them. The colored members of the board of education know this, and instead of defending their own race, cater to the prejudices of the admiral and their own interests, with the result as indicated in the Cardozo case. A. D. PARKER AT OF Mr. A. D. Parker, vice-president of the Colorado and Southern Railroad Co., will make the special Lenten address on Passion Sunday evening (17th) at 7:30. Mr. Parker is always a welcome visitor at the Redeemer, and the men are especially urged to go and hear what a consecrated churchman of large business affairs has to say to them about the Christian life and duty. As the most solemn portion of Lent approaches let the increasing devotion of all be shown by faithful attendance at the appointed services. Do not forget the united missionary meeting at half past two o'clock on Monday afternoon, the 1th. Visiting clergy will speak and papers be read. Tea in the parish rooms to follow. DONE HIS DUTY. Every effort was made by Mr. James A. Cobb to save Mr. Cardozo, and before any judge and jury in this land, this result would have been attained. But before the board of education, Mr. Cobb, always fighting valiantly, had no chance to make right triumph. The die was cast, a low political plot had been hatched, and justice could not get a hearing. ALZAMON IRA LUCAS. Who is well known to the readers of this paper, is busy enlisting the cooperation of the world in his move FIVE CENTS A COPY WHAT IS THE FUTURE? What is to be the future of the Washington public schools? Out of the corruption and greed which now menaces the very life of the system, what man can there be who can purify the fetid damp? Chancellor of New Jersey has failed. Mrs. Terrell, it is rumored has designs on certain offices for her husband, after Dr. Montgomery has been reduced to the place out of which she has so powerfully aided in thrusting Cardozo.

Boy, Too, Was Sorry. It was such an enticing slide that no boy could resist it, but this the stout old gentleman who was stepping along in a gingerly manner failed to realize. He thought nothing about it until he collided with the boy who knew the slide for the best to be had, and they both went to the ground; the boy, who was small and thin, below, and the old gentleman, who was stout, on top. The old gentleman found the boy much softer than the sidewalk would have been, but when he regained his footing he looked with dignified reproof at his late cushion. "My boy," he said, "it is evident that one of us should apologize, and as you seem to be out of breath, I will say that I am sorry this unseemly incident occurred." "You—you're not half—half as sorry—as I am," panted the boy.—Montreal Herald. An Actor's Pipe-Dream. John S. Flaherty, manager of the Majestic theater in New York, was walking along Broadway with a theatrical friend, when the latter's attention was attracted by a fine meerschaum pipe in a show-window. After admiring it for a time, the actor suggested that they go inside and ask the price. "How much for that carved pipe in the window?" he asked. "Only fifty dollars," said the clerk. "It's a beauty, and is the genuine article. Shall I show it to you?" "But he did not show the pipe," said Flaherty, in relating the incident, "for the actor was out of the door and strolling down the street. When I overtook him, I heard him say to himself: 'Two weeks' allimony for a pipe? Well, I guess not!'"—The Sunday Magazine. MRS. T. D. PERKINS ..SCIENTIFIC SCALP SPECIALIST..

Of the skill in surgery of Dr. Valentine Mott, it is recorded that in 1828 he performed what is universally allowed to be the most difficult feat ever attempted in surgery. A clergyman was afflicted with an enormous tumor in the neck, in which were imbedded and twisted many of the great arteries. In removing the tumor it was necessary to take out entire one of the collar bones, to lay bare the membrane inclosing the lungs, to dissect around arteries displaced by the tumor and imbedded in it, to apply 45 ligatures and remove an immense mass of diseased matter. All this was done without the aid of chloroform. The patient survived the operation and many years afterward continued to discharge the duties of his profession.

A forest fire is a terrific thing to fight when it once gets a fair start. Often it is practically beyond human control not long after its destructive work begins. And it is a prodigious waster of the natural resources of the United States. Probably no other country suffers so much from fires in forests, says the Cleveland Leader. If the timber of America could be saved from damage and destruction by fire the day of the exhaustion of the forest wealth with which this republic was wonderfully endowed would be indefinitely postponed. Fires not only ruin trees ready for use, but kill millions of young saplings. They prevent reforesting in many wide areas which have been denuded of their original timber. The tragic news from northern Michigan and neighboring districts in Wisconsin is a grimly impressive reminder of the havoc and peril of forest fires. The story is old. It has been told over and over in the United States. Many thousand lives have been cut short, in the aggregate, by fires in the woods. Uncounted millions of dollars worth of extremely useful property has gone up in smoke. The nation's resources have been wasted. There is room for vast improvement in the guarding and care of American forests. It is possible to prevent many fires which would be terribly destructive if permitted to get well started. Others can be put out while still small enough to control. The whole wide field of forestry is open for progress which will mean much to the United States. THE STATESMAN, DENVER, COLORADO. There is money in soliciting printing and subscriptions for C.A.FRANKLIN EDITOR The Statesman A RACE PAPER FOR RACE PEOPLE Got Even with the Professor. Prof. Robert C. Brooks of Swatthmore college is a great stickler for hard, persistent work on the part of his students, and is correspondingly disinclined to regard with favor anything savoring of dilettanteism. One day recently a young lady of the college approached him with a request to be allowed to attend a certain lecture course he was giving, at the same time expressing her great regret that she was unable to register for regular work in it. "Certainly, certainly, the oxygen's free, I suppose," answered the professor rather sententiously. The students smiled as the young lady took her seat with a dazed expression, but at the next meeting of the class she had her revenge. Passing the professor's desk at the beginning of the hour, she inquired sweetly "Is the hot air still free, professor?"—New York Times. Humane. Mrs. Nuwife was vexed. "You are always kicking about my cooking," she said, "and saying that my doughnuts are not fit for human beings to eat. And yet I notice that you have gobbled up every one of that 'ast batch!'" The brute was staggered, but only for a moment. "Yes, my dear," he answered, calmly, "but why? I knew that if I did not eat them our poor little baby would insist on having some. And, rather than have the child poisoned, I took the awful risk involved in devouring them myself. You evidently do not understand, my dear, that I am a self-sacrificing parent!" The silence that ensued was only broken by a crashing sound as of an empty doughnut dish breaking upon a human head.—Cleveland Leader. or on any kind of terms, until you have received our complete Free Catalogues illustrating and describing every kind of high-grade and low-grade bicycles, old patterns and latest models, and learn of our remarkable LOW PRICES and wonderful new offers made possible by selling from factory direct to rider with no middlemen's profits.

No danger from THORNS, CACTUS, PINS, NAILS, TACKS or GLASS. 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. DESORIPTION: 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 $4.80 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).

The chief topic of conversation in the capitol to-day is the dismissal of Francis L. Cardozo. It will be recalled that he has been making a fight of some months for the vindication of a right and the establishment of a principle in these schools. But that battle thus far has not born good fruit, for on last Friday night he was, after a form of trial, dismissed from the service of the public schools. It was not done, however, until after Mr. James A. Cobb had fought bravely and valiantly for Mr. Cardozo, and with him Mr. Mason M. Richardson, who came into the case at a late hour, upon the retirement of Mr. Henry E. Davis, who was forced to resign from the list as Mr. Cardozo's counsel, because of the very hostile attitude of the board of education toward him. But on last Friday night, after enough evidence had been given in Mr. Cardozo's favor to have justified an acquittal of murder, and after his counsel had made every effort to have the rights of their client regarded, the board of education, as per arrangement, Mrs. Mary Church Terrell having given the white members of the board the impression that the colored people wanted Mr. Cardozo removed, ousted Mr. Cardozo. The trial was mere form, and only one member of the board did her duty, and that one was Mrs. Ellen Spencer Mussey, a member of the bar of the District of Columbia. She decided the case according to the evidence, the other white members, according the wishes of the colored members of the board, who had unspoken reasons for putting Cardozo out. But we want to commend Mrs. Mussey. She has done her duty; we want to let the country know, also, of the position Mrs. Mary Church Terrell takes with respect to the whole matter. After the trial was over, Mrs. Terrell made the following statement in effect: "You colored people are rushing forward to congratulate Mrs. Mussey for the vote she gave in behalf of Mr. Cardozo, but your gratitude will not last a month; I know the colored people, they will not be constant." Here is a fratituous insult from a member of the board of education who was placed on the board of education to represent them and defend them. The white members are to look out for their own schools, and with respect to the colored schools, a majority, if not all of them, will follow the action taken by the colored members of the board. How much longer will the colored people of the District of Columbia submit to Mrs. Terrell's representations concerning them? CANNOT SHIRK. The white members of the board who claimed they followed the action of the colored members in the Cardozo case cannot shirk their responsibility so easily. They were there as judges in the trial, not to follow what the colored members did, but to cast their vote according to the evidence THE STATESMAN, DENVER, COLORAD. adduced. It is indeed a sad commentary upon the manner in which justice is dispensed in the schools of Washington. THE EASTER OFFERING. To the Pastors of the Denver District of the A. M. E. Church: Dear Brethren—Time in its rapid flight will soon usher in another glad Easter day. Praises will ascend in songs of rejoicing to Him who became the first fruits of them that slept. As members of the militant church we risen Lord. I need only remind you hope to join in singing praises to our that our Easter offering has much to do with the success of our home and foreign mission work. In view of the fact that this is the last year of the Quadrennium, let the effort of the near approaching Easter be the grandest we have ever put forth on such an occasion. As ever yours in hope of a blissful immortality. REV. JAS. H. HUBBARD, P. E., 2145 Goss St. CONDOLENCE TO BRO. L. LAMB. Whereas, The Lord has called your mother, there is a very wall in the words. She can never be replaced. Tee dear good mother has passed away to a better land, cheered by the knowledge of your love and affectionate tenderness, consoled by the thought that her teaching when you were a boy at her knee has not been in vain, and that she leaves behind her for a little while a son with us who treads the path of honor.

Since the tragic death of the Grand Duke Ser- gius the spy system has become more complicated than ever, until now there are whole regiments of officials and carefully picked men and women whose duty it is to guard the czar. These officials are scattered through the ministry of the interior, the se cret police and the ministry of war. The inner circle of the system {is the dreaded “third section” of the secret police—the men who are charged with the guardianship of the czar’s person. These men are highly educated, are artists in disgu'’se and possess extra- ordinary knowledge and power. High officials, nominally their superiors in rank, dread the vicinity of one of these men, lest their most innocent act—a call on a friend, a journey for health or pleasure—be construed into a sinster act demanding explanation. —Harper’s Weekly.

Woman Gowned in Imitation Silk That Has Gun Cotton for Basis. “Science, which lately furnished a mechanical substitute for the horse, has now set about putting the lowly silkworm out of business,” writes Clar- ence Hutton, in the Technical World Magazine. Almost unknown in the United States, the manufacture of artificial silk has been on a commercial basis in France for several years, the daily pro- duction being now about seven tons. In forming a chemical compound corresponding to the viscous fluid out of which the silkworm spins his deli- cate thread, the French chemists found, strangely enough, that the best sub- stitute was a solution of gun cotton, which also serves as the basis for the most powerful and deadly of modern explosives. To what extent this gun- cotton silk is relieved of its explosive qualities before being woven into laces and dress fabrics, seems to be some- what questionable. Certainly a young women gowned in gun cotton and Wearing a dainty nitroglycerin wrap about her white shoulders, would be a most formidable not to say dangerous object. If the new fabric ever becomes popular in this country it will plainly be necessary to warn young men not to approach its wearers with lighted cigarettes or other combustibles in their hands. And sparking will be- come a most hazardous occupation. Birth Rate of Talented. Michand finds a steady fall in the birthrate of men of talent from New England westward. Im New England out of every 100,000 births 54 are those of men of talent; im New York that number falls to 34, In Ohio to 19, in Indiana to 11, in Illinois to 10, in Missouri to 6, in Kansas to 2, in Col- orado to 1. This was learned by com paring the states by the number of persons whose names appear in a di- rectory of those prominent in public Ife, the arts and sefences and liter- ary pursults with the the total num- ber of persons born.

Who Was Bluebeard? “Who was the original Rluebeard, after whgm the Chicago murderer sen- tenced to death recently has been nicknamed?” asks a writer in the London Chronicle He continues “We owe the familiar Bluebeard of the pantomime to Charles Perrault, the Frenchman, who published In 1696-7 his immortal stories of ‘Blue beard,’ ‘The Sleeping Beauty,’ ‘Little Red Riding Hood’ and ‘Cinderella.’ But it is very uncertain who, if any- body, was Perzault’s model for Blue- beard. “Some have supposed that It war our Henry VIII, others that the tale is a lampoon upon the castle lords of knight errantry days in general. Per- haps the favorite candidate has been Giles de Rais, marshal of France, who was hanged and burned in 1440 for an awful series of crimes. “During fourteen years he was be- leved to have kidnaped about 150 children, tortured them, sacrificed them to the devil, burned their bodies and buried their bones in his castle grounds. But the resemblance be tween his tale and Bluebeard’s is too flight to be convincing.” “A first-class resort for gentlemen.” oe THE NEWPORT SALOON The only colored saloon in Denver.

Consumption of Beverage in That Town 700,000 Barrels a Year. Munich is the great beer city of the world," said Fritz Sommersen, Memphis, who has recently returned from a continental trip. "There are nearly 6,000 breweries in Bavaria, big and little, or about one to every 1,000 inhabitants. The largest are in Munich, one of which produces annually 7,000,000 gallons of beer, and there are two others not far behind. "The city of Munich drinks every year 700,000 barrels of beer, or nearly two barrels to every man, woman and child in the place, and pays more than $6,000,000 for it. Taking the whole country, the consumption of beer is 260 quarts a head of population. Munich alone has nearly 300 breweries, there having been a steady increase in the number for the last 200 years. In 1600 there were sixty breweries in the capital, but the first records concerning the brewing of beer date back to 1150. For several centuries after that time mead, a concoction of water and fermented honey, was the common drink of the people. "In 1615 the hofbrau, or royal brewery, was established, which is still a flourishing institution and puts a great deal of money yearly into the king's coffers. When Gen. Grant was in Munich the hofbrau was the only one of the city's sights that he chose to see, and he was so well pleased with the beer that he gave the waitress a 50-cent tip."—Milwaukee Free Press. Japanese Goldfish Farms. Although the goldfish occurs in a wild state in Japan, it is probable that China some 400 years ago furnished the stock from which the wonderful varieties of Japanese goldfish have been bred. It is reported that in feudal days when the famine was abroad in the land and many people were starving, the trade in goldfish was flourishing. The demand at present appears to be without limit, and the output shows a substantial increase each year. Many thousand people make a living by growing goldfish for market, and hundrds of pedlers carry the fish through the streets and along the country roads in wooden tubes suspended from a shoulder bar. The leading goldfish center is Koriyama, near the ancient capital city of Nara. Here are 350 independent breeding establishments, whose yearly product runs far into the millions. One farm which I visited was started 140 years ago. At first it was conducted merely for the pleasure of the owner, but it eventually became a commercial enterprise and is now very profitable.—National Geographic Magazine. Utilizing a Mud Turtle. A feat which in ingenuity equals that of Solomon, who, tradition says, threaded an intricately pierced stone by means of a hair tied to a living worm, is reported by an up-state engineer. "A long sewer in an up-state city recently became clogged," he says. "The problem of clearing it was solved in this way: A ball of twine was tied to the shell of a mud turtle, the little animal was put into the entrance of the sewer and a stream of water was turned on. The turtle burrowed its way through the refuse, was 'watered on' at each manhole, and emerged victorious at the outlet. A rope attached to the twine, a swab, and strong arms accomplished the rest swiftly and economically."—New York Times. THE STATESMAN. DENVER. COLORADO. SLAVERY STILL IN EXISTENCE. Practiced Under Another Name, Bu That Is All. Slavery is still practiced by civilized peoples, points out Charles Edward Russell, in Everybody's. He writes: "Very curious observations pertain to the Anglo-Saxon practice in nomenclature by which a thing becomes something else if called by another name. Thus there is no Chinese slavery in South Africa, we are assured, because the conditions there are called 'coolie labor.' In Assam the employer holds over his employe in the tea fields every right that a resident of Alabama held over his negroes previous to 1863, but we must not call the condition slavery—it is 'indentured labor.' Queensland sugar planters used to hire ruffians to go in schooners among the South sea islands and capture the natives and bring them to the plantations to labor, but the men engaged in this pleasant traffic were not slave catchers; they were 'recruiters.' They used to bring their captures to shore in vessels so like the old slave ships you could hardly tell the difference, but the business they were engaged in was not slave trading; it was merely 'labor.'" RAISING CATTLE IN WEST. How Refrigerator Car Built Up a Trade the Trust Ruined. "To produce beef that will stand refrigerating and long carrying," writes Mr. Russell in the May installment of "The Greater Trout in the World" in Everybody's magazine, "cattle must be fed on food that contains certain flesh-making elements. In some parts of the country there grows what is called 'short grass,' which has all the required nutrition. But the supply of 'short grass' cattle is not sufficient. The only other food that will make the quality of beef requisite for refrigeration purposes is corn. Hence, in the great corn belt of the west (Missouri, Iowa, southern Minnesota, South Dakota, eastern Nebraska, eastern Kansas) the practice came to be this: The farmer bought from the western ranges in western Nebraska and Colorado range cattle that had been matured on common grass, took them to his farm and fed them on corn for six or eight months. When they had been sufficiently 'finished' on corn they were shipped to be slaughtered. Penetrated Parson Disguise. The Rev. Dr. George Hodges, dean of the Episcopal Theological School at Cambridge, is a famous storyteller, perhaps one of the best ever heard in Boston. Here is one of his latest. "I believe it to be essential," said he, "that parsons should not affect too much austere dignity, mingle freely with their fellows and drop, if possible, the ultra clerical air which surrounds them. "But this cannot always be done easily. A friend of mine, the rector of a nearby church, while on a visit to Chicago, where he was a total stranger, decided to try a Turkish bath. "After his bath he was sitting on the marble slab in the cooling room, robed only in a scant towel. "An inebriated individual strolled in and looked at him critically, sputtered: "Devilish hot in here, parson'." "And my friend collapsed. J.W. Jackson Manager.

BUSINESS LEAGUE NOTES. Colorado Springs was visited by Dr. J. H. P. Westbrook, J. W. Jack- son, Will Parks and C, A. Franklin, who attended the session of the ex- ecutive committee of the State Bust- ness League. The deliberations were held at the home of E. P. Booze. Plans were laid for the state meeting and for the national meeting at To- peka. The former will take place a week after the former and there is good prospect that several prominent men of national reputation will honor Colorado by their presence. Geo. W. Gross, the Rocky Ford farmer and melon king, was chosen to deliver the principal address from this state and to be the state representative. Pre- prations were made for the collection of the exhibits of the products of our state by colored people, These, all of whatever kind, are to be forwarded to Topeka in care of Mr. Gross, who is to see that they are given proper display at the place of meeting. Ar rangements also are being made for the taking of a special car or train to the national meeting, and Mr. Booze is empowered to collect information concerning those who wish reserva- tions made for them. The Colorado Springs contingent will be large and the whole state will be levied upon for visitors and the far West may join in. NOTICE OF WITHDRAWAL.

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. --- THE STATESMAN. DENVER. COLORADO.
