FRANKLIN'S PAPER THE STATESMAN THE CONTAGION OF LYNCH LAW EIGHTEENTH YEAR. THE CONT OF LY Three Thousand American Citizens Hung, Shot or Burned to Death in Twenty Years Without the Semblance of Legal Trial. The Evil Spreading Over the Country-Only Five States Have Escaped It. In a recent open letter on the Atlanta massacre Professor Kelly Miller of Howard University deals with the rapid spread of this lawless spirit: There is no contagion so swift and sure of diffusion as the baser passion of man. The Nation puts forth a strenuous endeavor to stamp out cholera or yellow fever, however remote the plague spot where it first breaks forth. The baleful effect of the burning and lynching of human beings is as widespread as the Nation whose dormant evil passion it tends to encourage. The question is truly a National one, and as such should appeal to every man, woman and child who loves his country, and is pledged to uphold its good name and high ideals. The infectious germ has inoculated almost every State in the Union. The list for States and territories, from 1885 to 1904, or nineteen years, is as follows: South.—Mississippi 298, Texas 272. Louisiana 261, Georgia 253, Alabama 242, Arkansas 207, Tennessee 191, Kentucky 148, Florida 128, South Carolina 58, Virginia 84, Missouri 79, North Carolina 58, Indian Territory 54, West Virginia 43, Oklahoma 38, Maryland 20, Arizona 18, New Mexico 15; total for South, 2,499.

He acknowledges the reign of terror in the South to be an absolute failure. (From a speech delivered by the South Carolina Senator, January 20, 1907.—Congressional Record, Pages. 1472-3.) Race hatred grows day by day. There is no man who is honest, going through the South and conversing with the white people and blacks, but will return and tell you this is true. Then I say to you of the North who are the rulers of the land, who can change this or do something to relieve conditions, what are you going to do about it. Are you going to sit quiet. If nothing else will cause you to think, I notify you, what you already know, that there are a billion dollars or more of northern capital invested in the South in railroads, in mines, in forests, in farm lands, and self interest, which fact if nothing else, ought to make you set about hunting some remedy for this terrible situation. As it is the South is helpless. We can do nothing. We are one-third of the population. You are two-thirds. Every year your numbers are being added to by a million immigrants in the North, who stay there, while none go to us. The million who came last year represent five congressmen. Those who came in year before last represent five more congressmen. There is no danger of political power ever drifting away from the North. Therefore we say to you it is your duty to do something. It is your duty to move. It is your duty to begin the discussion. For the time being the South is occupying an attitude of waiting. It is occupying an attitude of constant friction, race riot, butchery, murder of whites by blacks and blacks by whites, the inevitable, irrepressible conflict.

Three years' voyage on the fraternal sea finds Rice Lodge of Elks doing better than ever in its history. Accordingly the celebration of the birthday last Friday evening by a special social session at the lodge hall was the best yet. The ladies were present. The wives, sisters, mothers and sweethearts of the members assisted in the merrymaking and filled no small part of the program of speeches. Toasts by Dr. Westbrook and Dr. Harper, J. W. Jackson and others of the members were delivered. The Exalted Ruler, H. J. Brown, acted as toast master for the occasion and surprised outsiders with the keenness and readiness of his wit and his ability to cope with the situations that arise at banquets. With such ideal conditions surrounding the event, and the perfect arrangements made by Social Chairman Q. J. Gilmore, for the accommodation of the guests, little was left to be supplied and music by Ellison and Gilmore supplied that. One of the features of the arrangements was a souvenir menu done in Elks colors. The announcement was made at the banquet by W. A. Rice, who is the supreme deputy, that a temple composed of the ladies would be formed to co-operate in the Elk work. The announcement was received amid tion of the club will be given out at much applause. Details of the forma- an early date. FRED WILLIAMS MURDER CASE Lawyer Ross has returned from Colorado Springs where he was associated with the firm of Cuiningham and Orr in the defense of Fred Williams who was on trial for murder. The sentence was passed upon him after a finding by the jury of voluntary manslaughter. This is a victory for the defense and there will probably be no new trial. Lawyer Ross won considerable praise from the legal fraternity of the Springs and was offered a retainer in some other cases now pending there. FIVE CENTS A COPY THE CHURCH NOT IN POLITICS Consternational Among the Church People Over Article Published in the Star. (From the Press Bureau.) Consternation spread among the colored people of the District of Columbia on the 17th instant when the Washington Evening Star announced that Bishops Grant and Gaines and Register Vernon had called at the White House and had expressed to the President a willingness to undertake the task of diverting the colored vote of the country back to the administration. The article in the afternoon paper declared that "both of the colored bishops are men of influence, politically and otherwise." On the morning of the 18th instant Bishop Grant gave out the following statement: "Such a statement as that appearing in the Star of the 17th instant respecting a visit made by Bishop Gaines, Register Vernon and myself is quite as unjust to the President as to me and those accompanying me. We indorsed Rev. O. J. W. Scott for a chaplancy in the army, for which appointment we feel grateful, but with that indorsement our visit ended. "I did not express myself regarding the colored vote of the country. The entire story is false, and I regret that a pleasant visit to the White House must be made the occasion for a disagreeable discussion in a daily paper, and that I should be placed in the attitude of opposing Senator Foraker, for whom I have the highest regard, and who, to my mind, is one of the best friends the Negro has in this country today. Such has been his record for the past thirty years." The above statement ought to convince all fair persons that the bishops referred to will not forsake the race and the right. To us it was unthinkable and we sent a representative of the Bureau to call upon Bishop Grant and had our views confirmed. We regret, however, that this rule was not followed by some of the colored press. The falsehood sent out from the White House respecting the visit was designed to show that there was a division of feeling in the race, as well as to intimate some weak men by showing them that the A.

Poultney Bigelow attempted on one occasion to interview “Oom Paul” Kruger and met with about the same fate that many interviewers have had with the former president of the Boers. He found the old man In a very bad bumor and could get only monosylla- dles in reply to his questions. He employed every art of the interviewer, but to no avail. Fina'ly, despairing of getting any information of use to him by straight questioning, he determined to be diplomatic and approach Mr. Kruger from his family side. So he asked, very nonchalantly: “Is your wife entertaining this sea son?” Short and sharp came the gruff an- swer: “Not very.” And the Interview closed there.— New York Times. Grief That Was Natural.

Mariners Make Gifts to Church of Notre Dame de Bonsecours. High on the bank of the St. Lawrence at Montreal stands a quaint little old church that dates back to 1657. It is known as Notre Dame de Bonsecours. From the land side it is very unpretentious, but on the river side far aloft stands a great golden image of Our Lady of Good Succor, and there is scarce a pilot or a boatman on the river who passes it without crossing himself. One who steps into its dimly lighted interior will be struck by the rows of miniature ships swung from the overhead arches, each bearing always a burning taper. One who cares to make inquiry will hear a quaint story. In the beginning the church was a place where all good Catholics might go to say their prayers, make confession and give alms. There were always river mills and ship's men among the ploug sitors. Then back in the days of struggles of the Pope to retain his temporal power, a company of French Canadian Zouaves went from Montreal to offer their services to the Church. In midseas their ship was overtaken by a great storm and only by the merest good chance did they reach Italy in safety. On their return to Canada they had made a small ship of silver, which was given as a thanks offering to this church on the river bank, and hung in the sanctuary, where a light burns perpetually in remembrance of the succor of the Virgin in time of need. Since then various pilots and others who sail on the river have presented similar ships from time to time, until now a double row swings above the worshipers' heads. And the church has come to be known by the name that every sailor on the river loves. AUTHORITY FOR THE DANCE Cardinals Decided 400 Years Ago It Was Proper Amusement. Louis XII of France held a grand court at Milan in 1501, where the balls are said to have been magnificent. At these the Cardinals de Nairbonne and de St. Laverin footed with the rest of the courtiers. Cardinal Pallavino relates that the fathers, doctors, bishops and other church dignitaries assembled at the council of Trent, rested for a while, in 1562, from polemics to deliberate upon giving a ball to Philip II of Spain. After mature deliberation the measure was adopted, the ball given and at it danced with the ladies of the city, who had been invited, the fathers of the council. Beauty of Its Landscapes, the Tea houses and Its Landscapes. With all the offensive sights and smells there is no denying a mysterious and alluring fascination in China for all who come in contact with her people under their native conditions, says Guy M. Walker in the Chautauquan. Even the recollection of the discomforts of travel by the native means cannot blot out the beauty of the landscape, the terraced mountain sides, the persimmon groves, the tea houses, the diminutive gardens, the little patches of ripening grain, and the great toiling throng always cheerful and contented in spite of their unending tasks. All who have been visitors to China seem irresistibly drawn back to the country. They hear the call of the east and never cease to look forward to the time when they shall return to it again. Those who have once lived in China are never satisfied o live anywhere else. Soothing and ininuating, the fatalism of the Chinese creeps upon them and they, too, learn to accept things as they come. Other landscapes lose their interest, the oldest ruins of other climes seem cheap and new, while the bustle and haste of occidental life with its harsh customs and abrupt manners bruise their spirit and they long for the peace of Cathay. CUSTOMS OF THE CANNIBALS Tribes of Savages Observe Traditions Among themselves. "Even among ages of French Africa, who eat human flesh, there are differences," said Paul Pucci, a young Italian traveler, at the Raleigh. "Some while ago, when exploring that country, I learned a good bit about the ways of the various tribes. In a majority of them cannibalism is indulged only when the bodies are those of prisoners taken in battle. It is all right to eat persons who belong to hostile clans, but it would be a gross violation of tradition and the custom of the land to feast upon friends or even upon members of the same tribe. This delicacy of sentiment, however, is not universal, and in one tribe in particular, where I noted the absence of any old persons, I learned that it was the proper thing to add the aged inhabitants to the local food supply. This confined the population to the young and hardy, for at the first signs of decrepitude the boiling pot was called into requisition."—Washington Post. Teetotalers seem to be the vogue in Yale football circles. Capt. Rafferty of 1903 and Capt. Hogan of the 1904 team and Capt. Thomas Leonard Shevlin, last year's head of the eleven are all teetotalers. One declaration of peace in which Mr. Roosevelt had no hand was that where a good mother lately sent her six children to school in the morning and then declared with a sigh of comfort: "Now I'll have peace." The fog of love not only blinds the eye; it takes away the taste, so that a young fellow in love with a girl as ugly as a barrel of salt will, after she has eaten a dinner of boiled onions and parsnips, kiss her and swear that he can slip honeydew from her lips, and herein he discounts the honey-bee.—Rev.

The Publisher's Claims Sustained UNITED STATES COURT OF CLAIMS The Publishers of Webster's International Dictionary allege that it is, in fact, the popular Unabridged thoroughly re-edited in every detail, and vastly enriched in every part, with the purpose of adapting it to meet the larger and severer requirements of another generation." We are of the opinion that this allegation most clearly and accurately describes the work that has been accomplished and the result that has been reached. The Dictionary, as it now stands, has been thoroughly re-edited in every detail, has been corrected in every part, and is admirably adapted to meet the larger and severer requirements of a generation which demands more of popular philological knowledge than any generation that the world has ever contained. It is perhaps needless to add that we refer to the dictionary in our judicial work as of the highest authority in accuracy of definition; and that in the future as in the past it will be the source of constant reference.

Tact is touching with love. The blue heart always has a black sky. The immovable hearts move the world. The empty faith is usually made of sounding brass. The only work without honor is that which helps no one. One does not get wedded to truth by flirting with doubt. The devil is always willing to play dead in a war of words. He is blessed with fortune who has learned to bear misfortune. A man who is honest for policy will be dishonest for promotion. The losses of truth are more profitable than the gains of trickery.

FORD'S HAIR POMADE Formerly known as "OZONIZED OX MARROW" SO STRAIGHTENS KINKY or CUPLY HAIR that it can be put up in any style desired consistent with its length. Ford's Hair Pomade was formerly known as "OZONIZED OXMARROW" and is the only safe preparation known to us that makes kinky or curly hair straight, as shown above. Its use makes the most stubborn, harsh, kinky or curly hair soft, pliable and easy to comb. These results may be obtained from one treatment; 2 to 4 bottles are usually sufficient for a year. The use of Ford's Hair Pomade 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 hairless, it is a toilet necessity for ladies. Gentlemen and children. Ford's Hair Pomade has been made and sold continuously since about 1858, and label, "OZONIZED OXMARROW" was registered in the United States Patent Office, in 1874. Be sure to get Ford's as its use makes the hair STRAIGHT, SOFT and PLIABLE. Beware of imitations. Remember that Ford's Hair Pomade is put up only in 50 ct. size, and is made only in Chicago and by us. The genuine has the signature, Charles Ford, Prest. on each package. Refuse all others. Full directions with every bottle. Price only 50 cts. Sold by druggists and dealers. If your druggist or dealer can not supply you, he can get it for you from his jobber or wholesale dealer or send us 50 cts. for one bottle postpaid, or $1.40 for three bottles or $2.50 for six bottles, express paid. We pay postage and express charges to all points in U. B. A. When ordering send postal or express money order, and mention name of this paper. Write your name and address plainly to The Ozenized Ox Marrow Co. (None genuine without my signature) Charles Ford Press 153 E. KINZIE ST., CHICAGO, ILL. Agents wanted everywhere.

Dean Hole was famous as a joker His chief verger at Rochester cathedral was a gentleman named Miles, the original of Dickens' Tope, who had been connected with the cathedral for seventy-three years. Mr. Miles was the youngest of twelve. Said Dean Hole one day: "Miles, what a pity you never saw your eldest brother!" "I did, sir, often," said Miles. "But you couldn't," replied the dean "Why not, sir?" queried Miles. "Because," said the dean, "there were always ten miles between you." NURSE DID FANCY WORK. He Was Middle Aged and Wore a Heavy Brown Mustache. There was a sick man in a bachelor apartment the other day and a nurse was needed. It was not deemed desirable to have a woman nurse, as three men occupied the apartment together. So a man nurse was employed although there was some fear expressed that the tenderness and gentleness of a woman nurse might be missed. But the masculine substitute, who was a mid-aged person in glasses soon proved that he was not going to be brutal. "May I have one of those big boxes that the roses came in?" he asked soon after settling down. "They'd be so splendid for my embroidery." "Embroidery?" repeated the person addressed. "What do you mean by that?" "Why, my centerpieces," he repeated, pulling at a heavy brown mustache. "It would be just the thing for them. I really can do wonderful embroidery. Some time I'll bring some around." He kept his word and one night sat under the lamp embroidering a large centerpiece while his patient slept. The next day he asked what was going to be done with a basket in which some fruit had been sent. "Be just the thing for my knitting," be murmured in explanation. He got the basket and the next night knit a pair of gra. wool socks. So nobody need ever try to prove that women nurses have all the gentleness on their side.—New York Sun Literary Treasure Found. The custodian of the royal library in Vienna found, the other day, in a pile of unsorted parchment, a valuable manuscript of the thirteenth century about 300 lines of a versified translation of the Bible into the Bavarian-Alemanic dialect, made by Rudolf von Ems, in Switzerland. Its importance lies in the fact that this was really the first Bible version into German. --- THE ELK CLUB CIGARS AND TOBACCO EVERY ACCOMMODATION FOR PLEASURE SEEKERS.

All boys know that a dog is a great aid to the sportsman, but not many of them would think that a pig could be of much use in hunting. Yet in France pigs are used in hunting truffles, a delicacy for the table which is found at the roots of oak trees. When a farmer decides to go hunting for truffles he takes his pig and piggie goes sniffing about with his nose to the ground just as a dog does when he follows the scent. When he finds a truffle he begins to burrow in the loose soil with his snout. Before he can take the truffle, however, the farmer pulls him away, but gives him a few acorns by way of compensation. As soon as he has eaten the acorns Mr. Pig goes to work hunting more truffles. Sometimes he will find several pounds of them beneath a tree. Span of Life Lengthening. Everybody who reads the newspapers and who keeps tab on the vital statistics knows that people live a good deal longer these days than they did a hundred years ago. There has been, it is true, a hiatus in longeval records since the generations of Adam, but when a man or woman dies now at the age of 50 or 60 years the penalty of dissolution is not augmented by the charge of senility. With all of the vital extracts which the medical scientists have evolved and with the remarkable multiplication of hygienic foods which now furnish forth the average breakfast table it ought to be the rule rather than the exception for persons of sober habits to live a hundred years. Time Table Told the Story. "It strikes me that this is about the slowest railroad in the country," said the impatient tourist. "I knew you were going to kick," replied the conductor, genially, "as soon as you asked for a time table. You are one of these people who believe everything they see in print." Death of Faithful Servant. The following announcement appears in the Geneva papers: "M. and Mme. Edouard Monos regretfully annouce the death of their faithful servant, Mlle. Gabrielle Thomasset, who has been in the service of our family for the last seventy-six years in succession."

Washington, a Hampton graduate, and steered through its infancy by the trained mind of D. W. Wilson, who was a graduate of Bates College of Maine, has done some good work. It has turned out some men who are doing good work in the south today. But the world has been so long deluded by the dupes and overraters, until we are compelled to turn the light upon the fakers. For many years, certain men have gone out from Tuskegee, accredited, thereto and have become, according to reports, large contractors and builders in the south. This is true. It is further claimed that the students erected the buildings at the Institute. In part this is true. But the students who erected the buildings at Tuskegee were men who for years had been carpenters in the South, some of them for many years before Tuskegee was dreamed of. Others of those who worked upon the buildings at Tuskegee had been contractors in the South for years. And today the men who are making headway in the artisan's field, who have at some time attended Tuskegee, are men whose trades had been taught them before they ever saw Tuskegee. We have the names of fifty of these men, all of whom are standing in the forefront of Tuskegee's products. Let us tell the truth. Tuskegee is not a great school; it is a fake, and its only good is—it serves to show how a black man can lead a great scheme, thus showing a certain intelligence, which however hinders rather than helps the cause of mankind. To this we challenge a denial, and if it is necessary we will show by a presentation of the names we have the proofs of our assertions. Tuskegee teaches but one thing well—and that is—that the colored man has no rights which the white man is bound to respect. It were better for America if this god of prejudice had not been born. Look upon this picture and judge for yourselves. The Chicago Conservator has gone over to Booker T. Washington. What forces induced the once-brave Daniel R. Wilkins, the most bitter opponent Booker T. Washington ever had, to go over to Mr. Washington, we leave the people of the country to conjecture. Was money or conviction the moving cause? It looks as though Mr. Wilkins wandered beyond his depth in his attacks, and at this late day has surrendered to the man who has done the race more harm than all of the forces since reconstruction. And we are not able to see that he has changed his policy. The best that can be said of him is, as a result of his sacrifice of our rights, or as the instrument to that end, the race has the much overrated Tuskegee Institute; or rather, white copperheads of the north have it through him for the race. THE STATESMAN, DENVER, COLORAD. FORAKER AND ROOSEVELT. Foraker and oosevelt still hold the center of the stage. Can Dick and Foraker win against the President? We believe they can. We believe in the manhood of the people of Ohio; that they will never submit to the dictates of the executive of the nation as to their choice for the presidency. If the people of Ohio have come to the point where this is to be done, then it is time to throw off the duality of government and acknowledge, instead of republic and autocracy, wth President Roosevelt at its head. This time has not come and will not come. We yet have faith in the colored voters of Ohio( and they are 50,000 strong, and they are going to see to it that Senator Foraker has their support. The appointment of Ralph W. Tyler to try to offset this vote is silly. Several of the members of Tyler's own family, we learn, have denounced their kinsman for allowing himself to be used to injure Senator Foraker. Thus it will be seen that the President made a false estimate of the colored people of Ohio, when his effort to carry an the colored people of the state has even failed to carry the whole Tyler Family. They are standing for Foraker, and they will stand until the end. THE RICHARDS LIBRARY. The Richards Literary Club had a night last week with Michael Angelo. Mr. Ennis G. Syphax read a very able paper upon the life and work of this great sculptor and painter. He dwelt especially upon the magnificent work in the cystine chapel, detailing the trials of Angelo in his work there. He painted him as the brightest genius of the world in the art of sculpture.

Church Not In Politics (Continuee from one) ops were for the President in this great battle for human rights by the race as against oppression by the president. The Bishops of the A. M. E. church are with and for the race. The Secretary of the Financial Department of the A. M. E. church has just made his annual report. It is the greatest report in the history of the A. M. E. denomination. It is but necessary to mention but one fact to show the correctness of this view. When the general conference met in Chicago, in 1904, the liabilities were $103,556.52, and when the report was rendered last week it showed, not only a reduction of the liabilities shown at Chicago, but a balance of $38,000. By the shrewd financiering of Dr. E. W. Lampton this result was obtained. Nothing more need be said in his behalf. This report is all that is necessary to show the church and the world that Dr. Lampton will be elected bishop in 1908. No argument can be stronger in his behalf than this. But there is a great deal of pride to be derived from this showing for the whole race. The report shows that Dr. Lampton controls the gnances, and the financial policy of the vast wealth of the A. M. E. denomination, which wealth mounts into the millions. As a financier, he is not only a credit to our race, but to our nation. Already we congratulate Dr. Lampton upon his elevation to the bishopric. GRAND RALLY. Campbell A. M. E. church Sunday, May 5, to which the friends and generous public are invited.

There is a growing demand at lucrative salaries in all sections of the country, and especially in the South, for young men train in agriculture. The demand for the graduates from this department of the Tuskegee Normal and Industrial Institute is so far in excess of the supply that we are offering special inducements to graduates of other schools, and persons sufficiently advanced in the academic branches to come here and pursue the courses in agriculture, including practical farm work, dairying, livestock raising, etc. An opportunity will be given a few earnest young men to work out all of their board while taking a course.

WILLIAMS, GEO. ANDERSON. JACKSON. MACK WILLIAMS, Chairman. THE CROWN OF SUCCESS. A year ago the first announcement was made of the wonderful success which Mrs. T. D. Perkins had made in the growth of her own hair and of her intention to give the benefit of her knowledge to the world at large. Being one of the best known women in this section of the country already, the news occasioned much comment and many people who had known her for years came to realize for the first time that the magnificent suit of hair she now has, was the product of a very short time nad that a bare three years ago she wore her hair in short curls, not braided and dressed as she now does. That success begets success, was evident from the start. Her classes in the care of the scalp and the growth and beautifying of the hair, were filled at once. They grew in prodigious bounds and some weeks ago she was compelled to abandon her out of town classes altogether. She confines herself now to treatments at her home in the Highlands and to mail order business. In the special articles which will appear from time to time in this paper, we delight to call attention to success in various lines achieved by people of this cit yand state, both that there may be honor paid to whom honor is due, and also that proper appreciation and patronage may come to ploneers in business among us. Personal profit for themselves and example and encouragement for us all go hand in hand in success won by members of our race. Even the mean spirited should not begrudge the one when so much is accomplished for the whole people at the same time. In her business Mrs. Perkins does not play the part of a charlatan, but sets forth clearly the possibilities of her work and her greatest endorsement falls short of the painstaking endeavor and thorough going knowledge she uses. We have seen her grow and grow, we know that she is deserving, we know that she has succeeded and we therefore predict that in no great length of time, she will be doing a business that will rival any mail order business conducted by a woman of our race in any department of endeavor. Edward Banks has received the sad news from Arkansas City that his son Garrett is dying. Mrs. Banks has just returned from a visit to him and left him in fair condition as she thought. Therefore this news has about prostrated the parents. W. N. Moore and wife of Salt Lake spent a few days here en route east as the guests of Miss Laura Moore of 2036 Arapahoe street. THE BEST INSURANCE. Denver. Colo. Commonwealth Life, City. Dear Sirs:—Your payment of $26.60 for my accident was entirely satisfactory to me. Your benefits which were paid to me while I was down and without any red tape are certainly the best. Yours respectfully. (Signed) JOSEPH SPENCER. THE AMERICON NOVELTY CO. The Colored American Novelty Co. of Washington, D. C., has entered the arena of the business world and it is the first negro company to enter the mail order business. It is making an effort to interpret the wants of the twelve millions of colored people in the United States by bringing together for sale everything printed, made or published by them. In its prospectus it says: "Our specialties will be pictures of eminent men and women of the race, books and inventions by colored authors, music, authorcards, souvenir post-cards, bas-reliefs and various designs in novelties. They do not know what the negro has done and is doing. They do not know of the achievements of our great men and women. Who are they? the poets, the philosophers, the authors, the inventors, the artists, the musicians and those who have won distinctions in the arts of civilization? The dominant race has not seen fit to set forth our "bright side." All of the pictures and souvenir cards offered for sale are caricatures of the negro—the chicken thief—the crap shooter—the watermelon fiend and the lazy, sleepy, good-for-nothing "coon." Are we to remain blind and indifferent forever to these misrepresentations?" "Our homes, libraries and public halls should be decorated with pictures of our people who have achieved greatness in some field of activity. There ought to have been established long ago some concern from which this information could be had and where these things could be obtained." QUEEN OF SHEBA CONCERT NO 8.—HEROINES OF JERICHO.

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.

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 bar gained 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. WORLD NOT WHOLLY BAD. Life Can Be Very Much as We Make It. After All. In the rotunda of the court house, two men were philosophizing. One said the people of to-day were not as those of olden time—they were selfish, unmindful of the interests of others, he said. The other contended that the world was better; getting better every day. Ten minutes later the two were in the court room. A young man of thirty years was arraigned on charge of having attempted to take his life by slashing his throat with a jackknife. "I haven't a friend in the world," said the accused in reply to a question put by the court as to why he had tried to die. "Poor devil. Why did they interfere with his plans? He'd never be missed," said the pessimist to the optimist, as he walked out of court. The unfortunate was held in bail and sent back to the pen with other prisoners. When court had adjourned the optimist called one the officers aside and said: "I'm a stranger here; my home's in Michigan; but I want to help that man who says he has no friends." The unfortunate was brought forth, handed a five-dollar bill along with a few words of cheer by the man from Michigan, and finally balled out. The pair went away together. After all, dear reader, is the world not what we, ourselves, make it? Such incidents as the above seem to indicate it, don't they?—Brooklyn Eagla. Butler's Doubtful Compliment. The late Gen. Benjamin F. Butler told the following on himself: Several years after the war the general had occasion to visit Georgia, and from a town on the railroad took a two-seated ramshackle vehicle, driven by a typical southern darky, for his place of destination. The general entered into conversation with the driver, and learned that he was one of eleven boys, and that he had a twin brother. He asked the driver his name. "Abraham Lincoln Backus," was the answer. "A fine, noble name," said the general. The driver was quiet a moment, then suddenly said: "Wat yo' think dat twin brudder's name is?" "I have no idea," said the general. "His name is Benjamin F. Butler Backus." The general appreciated the compliment, and was thinking it over, when the driver added: "Boss, I was always glad dat I was born fust." Tallest Californian Dead. Noted for stature, bigness of heart, and stability of character, Andrew J. Hart, the tallest man in California, died in Los Angeles, June 27, at the age of 67 years. He measured 6 feet 10½ inches in height, and, though looking quite slender, weighed 250 pounds. He had lived in Los Angeles for six years, and made hosts of friends among his neighbors. Andrew Hart's father died when he was a boy, leaving a mother for him to provide for as well as the care of the Indiana farm upon which he was born. Until he was 60 years of age he performed this duty for his mother, and it was only her death at a great age that finally released him; and left him free to marry the women he loved from childhood. His wife survives him. DOGS DID NOT BRING CUSTOM. New Yorker's Method of Advertising Displeased the Crowd. A merchant in Nassau street took a novel method of advertising his wares last week. Two show cases of the upright variety stood in front of his door, and on each was planted dogs dressed in gaudy blankets and bedecked with miniature "plug" hats. Each held a stick in its mouth, from which was suspended in banner fashion, placards setting forth the merits of the merchant's goods. One of the dogs was a splendid specimen of a brindle bull; the other was an Irish terrier, the saucy expression of whose face was accentuated by the "plug" hat cocked rakishly over one ear. The two eyed the crowd somewhat bashfully and anon looked at each other as though to say: "To what base uses may we come at last?" Judging from the expressions heard in the crowd which almost blocked the narrow thoroughfare, the dogs were more a detriment to the storekeeper's trade than an aid. They shivered in the keen air, despite the protecting blankets, and looked so wistfully toward the store door as though begging to be released from their exposed position, that the people were more moved to pity them and condemn the storekeeper than to purchase his goods.—New York Press. BOER TOBACCO IS STRONG. White Man Cannot Endure Its Scent or Taste—Blacks Like It. After Transvaal tobacco, but a long way after, comes Boer. The name is in reality nowadays a misnomer, says South Africa, for this tobacco is grown largely in Natal and Cape Colony. It is also cultivated in the Orange River colony, is sold by the roll and can be obtained for about $8 a pound if a whole roll is purchased. It is also sold by the sack. White men buy these sacks, but they do not smoke the contents themselves; they use it to reward the Kaffir servants for working overtime, or doing any other meritorious action. The taste for Transvaal tobacco is an acquired one; it also takes a certain time before a man gets used to the scent. No white man who has come from a distance has so far lived long enough to acquire a liking for either the taste or the smell, but it has its uses in the case of the natives, and it is also useful if you have an undesirable visitor who you are anxious to get rid of. Offer him a pipe of Boer tobacco and he will never enter your home again. The traders purchase this weed largely; they also use it upon the natives in the shape of presents, as every Kaffir who makes a purchase in a country store always asks for a free gift and the competition to secure the native trade is so acute that the request cannot be refused. Boy's Fish Story. In the little village of Woodville, Mass., lives a small boy, with a roguish eye, red cheeks and deep dimples, aged four years, and he answers to the name of Dana. He went into his aunt's house one day and remarked: "I have been fishing." She looked up with surprise and said: "Did you put the worms on yourself." "No! I put them on the hook." he instantly replied. PAGE 5. In Chelmsford, Mass., some thirty years ago, a candidate for the ministry was required to preach a sermon before a committee of clergymen chosen by the church. During the progress of the sermon by the candidate, one of the committee, the Rev. John Parkhurst, was seated with his face buried in his hands, apparently oblivious to everything. At the conclusion of the sermon, when the committee were discussing the qualifications of the aspirant, it was noticed that Mr. Parkhurst was conspicuously silent, and seemed disinclined to favor granting a license. Finally, after considerable discussion and criticism, one of the committee said: "Mr. Parkhurst, are you willing for Mr. E. to preach?" He slowly drawled His reply: "Why—yes—if he can." His Fate Not Elijah's. The Rev. Cyrus Searles was blessed with a goodly portion of this world's goods. He lived in the suburbs and traveled to and from his church in an automobile. One Sabbath morning the assembling congregation was shocked by a loud explosion. A panic was imminent, but was averted, fortunately, by the trembling sexton, who rushed up on the pulpit platform and, with uplifted hand, demanded quiet. "Friends," said the aged church officer, quivering with emotion, "be not frightened. Our dear pastor's charlot was gone up in fire, but I am pleased to inform you that, unlike Elijah of old, he did not go up with it." Small Remuneration. Edgar L. Davenport of "The College Widow" company tells the following story on an Irishman: "Michael had been on American soil but a short time and had been walking around for several days in a ceaseless search for work. He finally stopped in front of a book store, in the window of which was a sign reading: "'Dickens' Works Here All Week, $2'" "The Celt pondered over the sign for several minutes, spelling out each character. After scratching his head, he said. 'Be gob, that Dickens feller is pretty hard oop fer wurrk if he stays here all week for t'ree dollars.'" Deepest Ocean Sounding. The deepest sounding yet made in the oceans is said to be in the Aldrich deep, to the east of New Zealand. Here the sea is 30,930 feet deep. Quaint Luxemburg. Only a twelfth as large as Holland, the little grand duchy of Luxemburg is one of the most delightful of European countries. Yet it is almost always neglected by the tourist who travels from Paris to Berlin unconscious of its nearness. Luxemburg is free and independent, and according to Robert Shackleton, writing in Harper's Magazine for January, it is quaint and fascinating. It boasts free speech and a free press, it has free schools of commerce, philosophy, farming, gardening, manual training, and housewifery. But with all its modernity its ways are still old and its customs characteristic, including an annual official hunt for wild boar; and when the city bells ring out the hours, they play some operatic bit or a strain from a gay song.

Fisherman Breaks the Record for One Line in a Day's Sport. To kill a deer and catch a trout at the same time out-Nirmods and out-Izaaks Walton. A fisherman has just done the trick on the Arrow lakes, says the Toronto Globe. The deer weighed 200 pounds and the trout ten. The fisherman was trolling for trout when several deer swam past his boat. One was an old buck and the man managed to catch hold of him as he was going by. Having no gun, he tried to kill the animal with a claspknife. The buck objected so strenuously that he got away, swimming off with the fishing line upon his horns. The fisherman bailed out his boat and started in pursuit. After two hours' rowing he caught up with the deer and with oars and knife succeeded in slaying it. While the chase was proceeding a big trout got on the hook and after the deer was safely landed the fish was secured. It is quite a common occurrence to see deer swimming in the lakes of British Columbia, but to capture one and a trout at the same time is infrequent. GOOD JOKE ON KUBELIK. nsane Woman's Naive Comment on His Playing. The approaching marriage of Jan Kubelik, the violinist, to the Countess Marianne Csaky recalls an incident in his career which he told to a well-known impresario not long ago. "I was asked to play before the inmates of an insane asylum by an alienist," said Kubelik, "the doctor believing that music was a fine medicine for unbalanced minds. I accordingly accompanied him to the institution, where he introduced me, and said I would favor my hearers with something gay and happy. "I hadn't intended to do this, but following his suggestion, I played a brilliant Slav composition, which I hoped would be joyous enough. The crazy folk were all seated about the platform in chairs and seemed to be intensely interested. As I finished, a very pretty young woman rose and beckoned to me. I thought, artistlike, that she wanted an encore, and so said to the doctor: "He rose to his feet and was about to question her, when she exclaimed: 'To think of the likes of me being in here and he being at large in the wurrld!' "That was the last time I ever played in an insane asylum." Charles West is on the streets again with his new automobile done in red.

To the Editor of The Statesman: Dear Sir—Will you allow me space enough in your valuable paper to ask of the progressive people just a few questions of interest to our race? 1st—Are we not overlooking a golden opportunity by allowing all other nations and classes to co-operate for the purpose of settling the barren land so easily accessible to us while we stand aside doing nothing in that direction? 2nd—Are we not neglecting a duty to ourselves as citizens not to assist in cultivating the barren and waste lands of the state as well as a duty to the race by not providing a plan for the betterment of conditions and for the employment of our idle labor? 3rd—Do you not think the time is ripe for some of our representative men to look into a proposition to secure a few sections of land near Denver for the purpose of organizing a company for a district settlement—not as an emigration or colonization scheme, but purely as a business transaction for the benefit of both promoter and occupant? Every day we read in the papers of vast tracts of dry land being purchased by syndicates for the purpose of forming settlements. Why not we, too? Our salvation is in the earth and the sooner those of us who are adapted to the work get at it with pick and shovel the sooner our worth as a progressive people will be recognized. To promote a proposition of this nature requires men of executive ability—men who have the interest of the race fully at heart—men who are free from selfish motives, but who realize that in helping others they help themselves. There are such men in this state, and I hope this important matter will be considered by them. Respectfully. O. T. JACKSON. Boulder, Colo. GOLDFIELD. NEVADA To the Editor of The Statesman: This leaves our camp in very promising prospects, because the miners seem about settled, and it seems as if they are going to work again. They have not done any work for about a month now. We are having very nice weather at present. I believe they are going to try to grow a grass here that grows in Africa without water. It will improve this dry land some. There seems to be a great many of our people coming in the camp, and they all seem to be doing well.

Any one wanting to buy any stock just write to January Jones and he will be glad to give you any information that they would like to know in regards to stocks. THE STATESMAN, DENVER, COLORADO. At Combarelles, department of Dordogne, France, there is a grotto of the old stone age, having its walls engraved with figures, including that of the horse, ox, aurochs, antelope, reindeer and—what is more remarkable and quite new—the mammoth. It has long been believed by anthropologists that man hunted the mammoth in Europe, but we think it was hardly suspected that he was an artist in those days. Nevertheless we are indebted to his picture for a description of the animal. The front of the head was very high, with a medial concavity; the tusks were very short and the body was covered with hair. The drawings of these early men are similar to those on bones of the later "Magdalennian" epoch, and apparently as well done. This Is Awful. "Why are the grocery clerks heavier than dry goods clerks?" asked the man with the fool conundrum habit. "Give it up," rejoined the party of the second part. "Why are they?" "Because they weigh more." answered the other with a flendish grin. C. F. WEST, AUTOMOBILE FOR HIRE Stand, 17th and Stout streets. Phone Main 8173 OPEN DAY AND NIGHT. Q. J.

If every reader of this newspaper would say to the merchants with whom he deals during this month that he would appreciate seeing the firm's advertisements in the Statesman, if every one would give the preference to firms that do advertise with us, the advertising of this newspaper would increase manyfold at once. Since the financial success of any newspaper is largely governed by the advertisements it carries, such a move on the part of the public would at once remove this paper from any fear of failure or even shortness of funds. It would lift us above any necessity or stooping to eke out an existence. The paper would be free from political bias that is dictated by self interest. The race would have made us strong to fight consistently for race interests. In making these observations we mean to illustrate by our own paper a condition that is general. The race press is weak not because it has not brains behind it or because it is venal, but because the people whom it speaks for, do not intelligently work to strengthen it. Tell the next white merchant you patronize that since he will not hire colored clerks, he might at least seek colored trade through race papers. Go further than this. Look in the columns of the race press; patronize the merchants whose cards you see there; tell them why you patronize them. This is seed sowing in soil which is all productive. Then when you have done your full duty, support the race papers that make the fight for race interests and withdraw your patronage from those that do not make good. EVERYBODY TO THE RESCUE. The Elks are making strenuous efforts to register their emblems in accordance with the law recently passed by the Colorado legislature. So far no definite outcome has resulted. It seems impossible of belief that in this state the legislature should lend itself to "Jim Crow" legislation. Yet the PAGE 8. THE STATESMAN, DENVER, COLORADO.

If then it appears that the gorevnor and legislature have ignorantly or intentionally sought to cripple or insult colored fraternties, it is clearly the duty of us as a people to hasten to the aid of whatever lodge is the first victim of legal persecution. Let us make clear to all mankind that an injury to one of us is felt by all. Rice Lodge is making a praiseworthy fight and has our best wishes. THE LARGEST ASSOCIATION. Mr. I. G.
