Beautiful reminders of friendship were left in addition to the grateful Godspeeds.

A SOCIETY WEDDING.
The Marriage of Miss Ida Stewart to George Smith Wednesday Evening Unites Two of Our Most Popular Young People.
In the presence of the immediate family and friends, Miss Ida May Stewart and George A. Smith were united in marriage at the home of Mr. and Mrs. W. B. Fisher on Lincoln avenue Wednesday at 7 p. m., by Rev. Mills of the Episcopal church. The bride is one of Denver's sweetest girls and is the daughter of Chas. Stewart, a naval veteran of the 60's. A reception was held from eight to eleven o'clock to which a hundred guests responded. Eight young ladies received and served, numbering the Misses Washington, the Misses Scott, the Misses Von Dickersohn, Miss Thirkles and Mrs. J. H. Watkins. The parlors were beautiful with green and white flowers and foliage and streamers, and the same colors prevailed in the service.
The contracting parties were honored with the presence of a large number of the professional men and prominent citizens at the reception as well wishers and many costly and beatiful reminders of esteem will grace their home coming from the friends. Grace, beauty, strength and uprightness have well met in Mr. and Mrs. Smith and their future seems all bright. The Statesman extends its best woshes.

Birds’ Nigrations at Night.
The migration of birds to a waf ier
‘climate at the approach of winter ind
their return to their usual hakatg
when cold weather is past, is maitly
performed at night, and nearly altjays
on clear nights.
Only a comparatively few spt cies,
such as ducks, cranes, certain \arge
hawks, swallows, swifts and wight-
hawks, migrate during the daytime,
and these, it will be observed, are
either rapacious birds or mainly (hose
that enjoy such power of rapid flight
as to be relatively safe from injucy or
capture. All the vast hordes of yarb-
lers, sparrows, finches, flycatchers,
thrushes and woodpeckers, as well as
many waders and swimmeya, migrate
at night. On clear, still nights dusing
the migrations birds may often be
@eard to calling to each other high
overhead, and may actually be seen by
powerful telescopes.
Woods and hedgerows that were un-
fenanted one day may become alive
with birds at daylight the next mern-
tng, showing that they have arrived
furing the night. They remain to feed
and rest during the day and, if the
weather be favorable, may nearly all
disappear the next night.—Chicago
Chronicle.

Rough on the Cockney.
He was a very diminutive cockney,
and he happened to be deer-stalking in
the highlands, where he engaged the
services of a tall and powerful game
keeper.
The keeper in the course of a very
warm day, feeling irritated at the
ways of his little master, gave vent tc
his feelings by groaning at regular tn
tervals at the “midges” which were
swarming around him in myriads.
“How it is,” said the cockney, “that
the midges bother you 80 much? 1
haven't got so much as a single bite
yet.”

OPPORTUNITY FOR YOUNG MEN.
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.
Those interested can secure full information by addressing

RESPECT FOR THE LAW.
Writer Thinks Schools the Best Place in Which to Teach It.
The subject chosen by Rev. Dr. Foster, president of the Rust University in Mississippi, for his initial sermon of a series in a Boston pulpit yesterday shows the question that is uppermost in the minds of thoughtful men in the section which he represents. "Is Respect for the Law Decreasing?" is the topic which he discussed, and his own view was that there is a growing defiance of law and order, which means a general spread of anarchy unless something is done to check it. The churches can do much, but we believe the schools can do more, because they perform a service of more universal contact. Respect for the fundamental principles of law as a fundamental condition of good citizenship should be taught and impressed upon the rising generation in every institution of learning, great or small. This ethical lack must be met, if at all, by those charged with the responsibility of forming the youthful mind.—Boston Transcript.
Iceland Has Fair Variety of
Iceland Has Fair Variety of Trees One would hardly expect the subject the forestry of Iceland to call for much serious attention, but a lengthy investigation of the trees of that country has recently been made by no less distinguished a person than Dr. C. V. Prytz, professor of forestry at Copenhagen.
He says that the prevailing notion that Iceland has a single tree only is a fallacy, and that there is quite a pretentious growth of trees on the land, the soil not being unsuited for the growth. The tree growth of the country has suffered from injudicious cutting, he says, and he makes recommendations for the reforestation of the lands and offers suggestions about the planting of birches. The latter here, spring up naturally, and it is thought that by sowing these in places where the snow lies deep long immunity from destruction by sheep might be gained, as it appears to be only in winter, when grasa is not to be had, that these animals devour the birch trees.

Tarkington's Boomerang.
Booth Tarkington has among his curios in his New York city apartment a boomerang. A magazine editor said of the odd weapon the other day: "I do not believe that a native can handle a boomerang so that it will return to the precise spot it started from." "I believe it," said Tarkington. "Why, a magazine writer can do the very same thing with his manuscript if he incloses a stamped envelope."
Haughty Hotel Magnate Unable to Regulate Temperature. In most up-to-date hotels all rooms are provided with thermostats—little instruments which permit the occupants to regulate the temperature automatically. Of course the usefulness of these contrivances is limited to the cold season when artificial heat is produced.
Some days ago, in the midst of the hot spell, a woman from Dubuque, Iowa, registered at the Hotel Astor. While seated at her window fanning herself frantically, she espied the thermostat on the wall. She had heard of the invention and pressed the button until the marker was opposite the 59 point, believing that a breath of real cold air would revive her at once.
Instead of growing cooler the room grew distinctly hotter. The marker, instead of remaining at 59, soared to 97. After three more ineffectual attempts to make the machine work, she went to the office and asked for the clerk.
"See here, that thing is my room is out of kilter," she snapped. "It says, 'Press down until marker is opposite the desired temperature figure, and the air in the room will change accordingly.' The machine doesn't work right. I'm hot. I want cold air, I do. I fixed it for 59, and instead of that I get 97."
"Why, my dear madame, I am not to blame," replied the clerk. "You should not come to me with objections of that kind."
"Well, who should I go to?" she retorted.
"I think you had best consult the Almighty about it," sighed the clerk. "He regulates the temperature during the summer time."—New York Globe.
Co-operation of English Farmers
The Agricultural Organization society was formed four years ago to promote reciprocal aid among British farmers, and statements at the annual meeting recently held show that its object is being successfully carried out. The number of branch societies has largely increased and is now 113, embracing 33 counties, while the membership has advanced from 4,500 in 1904 to 6,500 now. One of the important aims of the society is the cheapening of freight rates, which have been excessively burdensome England to the small shipper. This is being done with success by combining farm products in wholesale quantities. General working expenses have been reduced and in some cases the prices of products have been increased through the harmonious working of the society. It also enables members to buy in wholesale quantities from one central point instead of dribbling out small orders to a large number of producers. Farmers can buy their supplies and implements at wholesale prices, and this is considered so important that prophets are found who see in it the redemption of British agriculture from the low estate to which it has declined.
Germany's First Admiral.
Germany has just celebrated the centenary of her "first admiral," Rudolph Brommy, who was born Sept. 4, 1804, and organized the German navy during the first German-Danish campaign in the '40s. The German navy came into being with nine steamers, one sailing frigate, the Deutsch land, and twenty-seven gunboats.
All member of parliament are more or less burdened with letters from constituents, but the labor members are the greatest sufferers. One of them the other day received a letter of 1,700 closely-written pages, about a personal grievance of the writer, in which he thought parliament should intervene.
Annoying Letters.
Of the 958 lots burned over by the Fire of two years ago in Baltimore, building permits covering 820 have been issued. As in the case of the Chicago fire in 1871 and of Boston's in 1872, the valuation of the burned district is increased largely in Baltimore, the gain being put at fully $100 000 000

Failure of Wireless
In the recent British naval maneuvers off Lagos wireless telegraphy was found unreliable in the existing circumstances. Several cases of friends firing on friends occurred, and it is anounced that visual signaling will be adhered to in the British navy till wireless telegraphy is much improved.
Autos in Germany.
German firms are unable to fill all foreign orders for automobiles. Vice Consul Schemmer, of Mannheim, writes that the German motor production for 1905 was $10,000,000, the export to England and France increasing 400 per cent.

Hard on the Host.
James Brown Potter was talking about absent-mindedness.
"Usually," he said, "the errors of the absent-minded are merely ludicrous. They don't cause embarrassment or pain. The last time I was abroad, though, I witnessed a piece of absent-mindedness that was embarrassing and painful to the last degree.
"I was dining in Oxford, and the guest of honor was a Bishop. He was old and mild and thoughtful, and I was not surprised to hear from my neighbor that his head was continually in the clouds and his thoughts continually wandering.
"It seems that this Bishop had once lived in the house of our host. That fact, probably, was what caused him to forget that he was dining out. As the dinner, a rather poor one, drew to a close he turned to his wife and said:
"'My dear, I am afraid we must pronounce this cook another failure.'"

SWEDISH SPIES IN NORWAY
Sent for the Purpose of Reporting on Work in Military Quarters.
A spy, who is reported by the authorities to be a Swede, had been detected in Fredrikshald, where he was particularly interested in Fredriksten and Hjelmkollen. At the latter place he was seen by a guard, who recognized him as a man who had been hanging around the fortifications at Kongsvinger last winter. When he was discovered he made his way to Swedish territory. The guard was instructed to keep watch of the man. Late at night he appeared again in Norwegian territory and was met by the guard. When they separated the guard took the footpath to Hjelmkollen and was not surprised to meet the spy again. The latter than disappeared.
The Swedes allege that Norway is preparing to erect a number of fortifications along Glommen, outsi of the neutral zone established by the Karlstad treaty, and to replace the fortified points which were dismantled in accordance with the treaty. The Swedea declared that these plans show a distrust of Sweden and are uncalled for when no preparations of a similar nature are being made on the Swedish side of the border.
Who Kicks?
It was a peaceful English afternoon. Not a ripple disturbed the placid bosom of the sleeping river, and, seated on the shaven lawn which led down to it, Mr. Roger Pimpernel felt that it was, indeed, good to be alive and at peace with the world.
Suddenly a scream from one of the arbors broke on the quiet air, and Little Mabel, his favorite daughter, appeared in tears.
"Oh, daddy, daddy!" she cried, "Leonard kicked me."
"What do you mean, you young scoundrel, by kicking a girl?" he roared at his delinquent son. "Don't you know it's cowardly, and that only donkeys kick? If it occurs again I'll kick you myself."
And the dear old fellow proceeded to comfort little Mabel, utterly unconscious of having said anything at all peculiar.—London Tit-Bits
Origin of Some Spanish Title
Spain is said to contain 470,000 "nobles," many of whom owe their titles, such as they are, to the half mad and wholly bad Philip II, who used to create them in batches of 100 at a time at a uniform price of $50 a head.

OF COURSE HE COULD SPEAKI
Baby's Language Perfectly Plain, at Least to Doting Mother. He was a born lady-killer—the kind with the melting glances and the "nameless fascination" you read about in novels. He told every woman he met that he loved her, and there was something in the way he said it that carried conviction to the heart of each new victim and made her long to call him hers.
That was the reason his mother and his young aunts trembled each time he ventured out to the park with his nurse. They were firmly convinced that every eye in the metropolis was fixed upon him covetously and that kidnapers were lying in wait to capture him the minute Nora's head was turned.
"And he doesn't even know where he lives," they said. "We really must teach him to say his street number." And they did, but as he was only 2, with a very crooked tongue and a strong partiality for the letter "y" the result was not a brilliant success.
"Tell papa what you are to say when the policeman asks you where you live, dear," said his mother.
"Yippy yee yep yitty yeet," answered baby promptly.

See if you can shut your eyes, let your thoughts wander across the Atlantic and rest upon a little scene that looks like this:
There is a brown Italian cottage, built of stucco or coarse plaster and roofed with tile. Once on a time the cottage was painted, but that was long ago—a hundred years perhaps. Now it is the same color as the road, except where vines clamber over the walls and where gay boxes of flowers bloom in the windows. But the windows are all in the second story and have no glass in them, for the peasants are very poor.
It stands a little way up the mountain side, and from the narrow dooryard may be seen the broad, blue Mediterranean, stretching far away to the south. All down the hillside are great geraniums and heliotropes, orange and lemon groves, yellow with ripe fruit, and beautiful orchards of green olives.
Just back of the cottage there is a spring, and the water from this comes through a wooden trough down by the roadside. Here a woman is doing her washing, rubbing the clothes on stones, instead of on a washboard. Those she has washed she has hung on the bushes or spread on stones to dry. In the big clothes basket stands the baby of the family—a rosy, black-eyed little lump—put there to keep him out of harm and out of mischief. In one corner of the dooryard a brown complexioned man is loading a small donkey with two baskets of olives for market. Standing in the doorway, with his head out, is the family goat, which gives the baby plenty of fresh, sweet milk. And baby, father, mother, goat and donkey all live together inside the cottage.
The World's Worst Coachman.
It is a great reproach to us as a nation of horsemen and horse lovers that while our London cabmen are perhaps the best drivers in the world, our society coachmen are probably the very worst.—Cavalry Journal.

CATCHES DEER AND TROUT.
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 balled 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.
Distress at Cape Town.
The distress at Cape Town owing to the prolonged commercial depression has become very acute. The government has announced its intention to cease payment of wages to men employed on railway relief works and to substitute rations and a small clothing allowance to guard against the rapid exhaustion of the funds voted by Parliament for the relief of distress. The funds at the disposal of the relief committee also are exhausted.

An Exciting Occupation.
An English nobleman insisted on his head gardener taking on as an apprentice a young lad in whom his lordship was interested.
The lad was very lazy, and the gardener was not at all pleased at having such a youth thrust upon him.
Some time after, his lordship, walking in the garden, came upon his gardener and said: "Well, John, how is my young friend getting on with you?"
"Oh, he's doin' fine," replied the gardeher, with a sarcastic grin. "He's workin' away there at the very job that suits him."
"I'm glad to know that," said his ordship. "What may that be?
"Chasing snails off the walks," was the cutting reply.
Past and Present
So our rich American citizens are buying up feudal castles in England. What a shock the click of the typewriter must be to ancient skeletons in armor! And think of sending telegrams to the steel trust from haunted chambers where kings held court and queens kissed hands with death! Atlanta Constitution
The age Sculptor Bartboldi was best known in this country by his statue of Liberty, the chief feature of which is its size. Its artistic merits were succinctly summed up by a distinguished foreigner when sailing into New York harbor. Pointing to the gigantic figure he asked: "Is that Liberty?" "Yes," said a bystander. "Then give me death," said the foreigner, who evidently knew his Patrick Henry.—Boston Herald.

A octentist explains some of the
strange phenomena of dreams by say-
ing that they are due to what he calls
“hereditary memory.” He takes the
“falling through space’ dream and
points out that after suffering the
mental agony of falling the sleeper
escapes the shock of the accual stop-
ping. The explanation is that the fall-
ing sensations have been transmitted
from remote ancestors who were for-
tunate enough to save themselves,
after fallimg from great heights in
tree tops, by clutching the branches.
The molecular changes in the cere-
bral cells due to the shock of stop-
ping could not be transmitted, be
cause victims falling to the bottom
would be killed. In a similar manner,
by reverting to the habits of animals
which existed centuries ago, the
fame investigator finds an explanation
for the mental state experienced by
individuals in various dreams—the
“pursulng monster” dream, the “rep-
tlle and vermin" dream, color dreams,
suffocation dreams, flying dreams and
the like.

Two Hundred Miles of Lions.
In western India there is a place
named Junagadh. It is governed by a
ruler called a Nawab. This Nawab
has a peculiar fad. It is one that
probably no other person in the world
shares with him; at any rate, if any-
body else has rhe sume fad, {t {sn't
likely at all that he can indulge it as
the Nawab of Junagadh can, for in his
territory is the greet forest of the
Gir, in whose 200 square miles there
are believed to be more lions and pan-
thers than are to be found in any
other part of the world—and the fad
of theNawab is lions.
In his territory it is a prison of-
feuse for a native to kill a lion or
panther; and it is only when visiting
Europeans enter the land that the
Nawab permits any hunting. Very
prominent Europeans know so well
that the Nawab doesn’t like to have
his lions @hot that they politely de-
cline hiv fuvitation when he extends
it, knowing that this will please their
host more than anything that they
could do.
Even the viceroy of India, who re-
cently visited the Nawab, refrained
from going out to shoot a lion, al-
though, of course, that ruler had made
all preparations for a great hunt.
The Narab naturally has the finest
collection of tions in captivity in In-
dia, and it happens often that at night
the cagea animals are nearly driven
frantic by the roars of free lions
which come out of the jungle and
prow! around just outside of the men-
agerie.

O'Connor Power and the Alderman.
When O'Connor Power, M. P., was

To Whom It May Concern:
Having taken Mrs. -T. D. Perkins' treatment for the hair I can say that it has been perfectly satisfactory in every way.
When I began taking her treatment my hair was so short that I could not pinch it up any way, and I really did not think that she could ball my hair, but she did, however, I continued to treat it as she had told me to do.
I was taken down with typhoid fever. When I recovered I went to Mrs. Perkins and she consulted with a physician and my hair had to be cut off.
Her treatment has enabled my hair to grow and I am proud to say that I can fix my hair most any way. It is now five inches long. I would recommend to all to take treatment from Mrs. Perkins who want beautiful hair. I cannot thank her too much. I remain Yours respectfully BERTHA RHODES.
The available farm land in Indian Territory is estimated at 15,000,000 acres. These figures are taken from the records of the Dawes commission. Of this, 15 per cent was in cultivation last year. There are about 2,000,000 acres of land where pine is found in commercial quantities, and there is an abundance of hard woods of all kinds. The latest statistics obtainable give the value of farm animals at $55,000,000. The per cent of the population engaged in agriculture is exceeded in only three states—Mississippi, Oklahoma and Arkansas. Kansas City Journal]

APPOINTMENT UNSATISFACTORY
PAGE 2.
(From the Press Bureau.) Last week reference was made by this Bureau to Howard university, but feeling so keenly the grievous wrong done the race and the nation by the appointment of Booker T. Washington, et al., we did not discuss the matter at length. But since we have had time to reflect and weigh the situation, comprehend its sinister design, its dangers, understand its full import, we are compelled to speak at great length upon this vital matter.
We have come face to face with the question: Shall Howard university be made a second-rate industrial school, or shall it stand as a great National university for the "Education of Youth in the Liberal Arts and Sciences?"
As an aid to the solution of this question, the appointment of Booker T. Washington, significant as it is, is not the most significant fact in connection with the appointments upon the Board of Trustees of the university. With Dr. Booker T. Washington were appointed Dr. Waring, Dr. Mooreland and Mr. Converse. In order that we may understand the full purpose of Dr. Thirkield and his Board of Trustees, it is necessary to consider the men recently appointed. We will dispose of Dr. Waring by saying that he cannot act freely with respect to the education of colored youth out of harmony with the sentiment which permits him to remain in Baltimore. He favors Hampton methods and is annually seen at the Hampton Conferences. Dr. Mooreland, a good man, well meaning and pious, cannot do anything except the millionaires who pay him permit him to act. In other words he must do what they tell him to do or his pay will cease. He is an industrialist. Mr. Converse, manager of the Baldwin Locomotive Steam Works, represents the Southern Education Aid Association, which controls Hampton and Tuskegee. The Southern Education Aid Association, as is very generally known, controls Booker T. Washington, dictates not only his educational policy, but his speeches and apologies. From this you may draw your conclusions, get your own answer.
On the other hand, there are those who believe that Howard university ought to be maintained as conceived and created by her founders. There yet remain those who believe that "Education is the leading out of the mental, moral and spiritual elements of man. These are not ready to surrender her to the will of men whose aim has been to debase and degrade the race which profits most at Howard university. They, therefore, enter objection to the industrialization of the Board of Trustees of Howard university, and serve notice on Dr. Wil-
THE STATESMAN. DENVER. COLORADO.
bur P. Thirkield, who, when approached by Mr. H. J. Pinkett about his policy, stated that Howard university would be run from the administration building, that the battle is on. We believe that Howard university should endure, as presented by its founders, and this, too, regardless of the fact that Dr. Thirkield insists that he will run the university "from that end." He no longer believes in Sumner and the life of Bishop Haven; he thinks this is another day; that their spirits would not do for this era. He preaches to the students of the university that Booker T. Washington is one of the six greatest constructive spirits the world has ever seen, and boastfully asserted to a young alumnus of the university that if he could he would immediately install a $500,000 technical plant (meaning industrial plant) and give the youths what they need most. H. J. Pinkett was the alumnus, who has kindly given us the use of his name in this connection for definite reference.
These facts show the tendency of the present administration of Howard university. Those who yet believe in fair play must act and act now. The last stronghold for the advancement of the race, the place dedicated to freedom and opportunity in the manly walks of life, has been attacked by the huge dragon of peonage, a new slavery, industrialism, and we must save her. Let every paper of the race which believes that our place should be left where the youth of our race can get the higher education speak out against this insult to the race and save our Gibraltar.
But there is another motive in appointing Booker T. Washington a member of the Board of Trustees of Howard university. It was thought that thereby certain members of the university faculty who teach the rights and duties of men would be intimidated and silenced, and that they would have to accept, because Dr. Thirkield says, if the statement is true, that Booker T. Washington is one of the six greatest constructive spirits the world has known. This means, at least, so far as Thirkield is concerned, that all men who are members of the Niagara movement and other similar organizations, must be silent or he will have them removed.
This is the slavery which the advent of Booker Washington entails upon men who have stood for so much and done so much for the race. Men of Capital Savings Bank fame and notoriety are being pruned for the places to be made vacant, unless all men accept Becker Washington as the greatest man of his age. In the future there are to be no views that are individual among the members of the (Continued on page3. )

faculty, save as those views concede
that Booker T. Washington is great,
and that an industrial plant should be
the consummation of the work of Iv-
arts and Sumner and Hoar, and the
great and lamented Bishop Haven.
Dr. Thirkield came into the univer-
sity largely through the influence of
colored men, and by the same influ-
ence he can be removed.
We are indeed at the “Parting of
the Ways.” Let every man do his
duty and save Howard university
from the designs of men who by hy
pocrisy and cunning have gotten the
reigns of power. This burns like fire,
it throws a funeral pall over us all,

THEY DON’T LIKE IT.
Scarcely less startling than the
Howard university appointments |
the elevation of one of Booker T
Washington's henchmen to the head
of the colored school system of this
city and the demotion of Dr. W. 5S
Montgomery. The name of the pro
moted henchman is Rosco Conkling

bones about the matter, They declare
openly that he is in the schoo's

ton; that Mrs. Mary Church Terrell
im the active spirit, angelic-like, who
plays the political end for Booker, and
lands his men. Mr. Bruce goes to
and fro in the schools telling the
teachers that they need more {ndus
trial training in the schools; that it
would help them to divide the work,
giving half the time to literary studies
and half the time to industrial work.
Thus the tendency is shown in this
movement. But one other step is to
be taken now in order to complete the
strangle hold upon the throats of men
who believe in something A real

PRESENTS FAVORITE SON.
Pennsylvania has presented her {a
vorite son to the nation as its canili
date for the presidency of the United
States to succeed Theodore Roose
velt. What do the colored people
think of the step? They should think
well of it. (1) Because Senator Knox,
if elected, will be president. (2) For
the reason that he is a man of brains
and power, He is a statesman and
weighs things before he acts upon
them. He is not a child of the corpo-
rations, but believes in justice to
them, and has done more than any
man in this country to restrict the {I
legal activities and destroy their un-
lawful combinations which were in-
jurious to the people. He is one of
the greatest men in the nation and
would make an admirable president.
He would not be a special friend to
the colored people, but would give
pshem their rights under the law. The
colored people will be satisfied with
THE STATESMAN, DENVER, COLORADO.
the proper administration of the Con-
stitution of the United States. They
want JUSTICE and Senator Knox
woud accord them that.
On the great questions now before
the nation and the world he has taken
his stnad and it has always been and
is on the side of the best interests of
the whole people without regard to
race or class. He believes in and ad-
heres to the Constitution of the
United States. What more?
STILL FIGHTING.
Senator Foraker is fighting a noble
battle for the Twenty-fifth and will
win in the end. He may not win in
this present hour, but a final victory
is sure to come to him. He is the
nation’s friend, a true type of all that
is best in the nation. He stands by
the Constitution of his country,

A movement has been organized for
a men's thank offering for the blessing
which the Catholic church of the Eng-
lish speaking people has brought to
this nation.
By request of the Rt. Rev. Bishop
Olmsted, the offerings next Sunday
(16th) throughout the diocese of Colo-
raod will be given to this fund.
The Episcopal church, which is the
rightful Catholic church of these
United States, is striving earnestly to
find the most excellent way to elevate
and interest Colored citizens of this

of the Redeemer will respond liberally
to this appeal.

BOISE NEWS.
BOISE, IDAHO.
The Federation of Miners' trial is quite exciting in Boise this week.
If the weather is not too warm when the children are gone this summer, Mr. Robert Gilmore, J. E. Brown and R. B. Smith, trustees of the St. Paul Baptist church, can look for church property. A good way for Bob to spend his lonely hours.
Mr. Irvin Clarke expects to make a flying trip from Nevada to Boise as soon as his sacks are filled with gold to get the little girl he left behind.
Mrs. Lola Hall of Denver, sister of Mrs. R. B. Smith, has come to make Boise her home.
Mr. Tassett and Mr. Walker of New Jersey City; Mr. Lewis of Salt Lake, are the new waiters at the Idanha, with Mr. Thomas Frames.
Boise, although small and few in numbers of colored people, can boast of three colored churches, the Church of God, with Dr. J. W. Baker as pastor; the St. Paul Baptist and the Non Sectarian Mission, with Mr. E. D. Washington as leader. Today being Children's Day they anticipate a great time; also the opening services of the church are held today. They have a very nice little church of their own just completed and the members, although but few in number, are all smiles over their success.
Mr. and Mrs. Carpenter of Cheyenne are among the newcomers of Boise. Mr. Carpenter is a barber and has located in a very desirable part of the city at Twelfth and Main streets, and is doing nicely and much pleased with Boise, the beautiful. We are always pleased to welcome such people in our midst.
Mrs. Annie Parker and children are anticipating a great time on their trip to the mountains this summer, fishing and hunting. Don't worry, Mrs. Parker, the snakes won't bite the babies.

Branon will also have charge of the mission at Idaho Falls, Idaho, and will hold services there and here on alternate Sundays.
J. H. Pearson has just bought a two-story brick residence on North Fifth avenue. Mr. Pearson has been here seven years and this assures us that he intends to remain. For several years he has been in the service of the O. S. L. railroad on private cars. At present he is in charge of the car of Superintendent Stevenson. He and his family have a large circle of friends.

To Meditate Upon.
Under modern conditions many people suffer from a chronic state of illhealth and minor ailments which, if we could trace them back to their causes, might be found to be the results of adulterated foods and sophisticated wearing apparel.—The Lancet.

4 years ago my hair was only a 4 years ago my hair just covered finger-length, and my temples my shoulders. were bald half way up my head.
When we first began our wonderful work of growing all kinds, all qualities, all lengths, and all conditions of hair, even to the growing of hair on bald places of the head, many persons scorned the idea that such a thing was possible; but we have grown the hair for hundreds, rapidly achieving success. The proof of the value of our work is that we are being imitated and largely by persons whose own hair we have actually grown and the further fact that they have very frequently mentioned us when trying to sell their goods (saying that "theirs is the same" or "just as good") or referred to "PORO." We advise you to use only "PORO" Hair Grower, (the oldest and best of its kind). See that the name "PORO" is on every box, not genuine without it. Prepared only by MRS. A. M. POPE.

The first effort of white Elks in Colorado to put restrictions upon the Colored Elks has come to an inglorious close. The attorney general, W. H. Dickson, has rendered an opinion at the request of the secretary of state to the effect that while the secretary has no right to receive duplicate emblems on file according to the provisions of the law, the penalty provisions of the act are faulty and that colored Elks may continue in the enjoyment of the present insignia without fear of the courts.
A world of agitation has been going on ever since the legislature closed over this matter and except for the bad taste in the mouth, all is over. In the settlement of it, it is clear that certain influences have been friendly to us and we need to mark them well that we may repay.

WOULDN'T ROB THE BISHOP
Pacific Coast Bandit Returned Valuables Taken from the
"Not a great while ago there was as bold a bandit as ever bade men stand and deliver operating between Fairbanks and the mines tributary to that town," B. B. McGinn of Alaska, according to the Washington Post.
"This modern Dick Turpin, one Hendrickson by name, kept up his robberies for months and made many a good haul. He was a courteous brigand and not altogether mercenary.
"On one occasion Bishop Rowe of Alaska was confronted by Hendrickson and relieved of all his valuable. As the good man was about to depart the robber, noticing his garb, asked him if he were not a minister of the Gospel. 'Yes,' said the victim, 'I am Bishop Rowe.' 'Well, then,' replied Hendrickson, 'I can't think of despoiling you. I used to be a member of your church, and however bad I may be, I can't rob you.' With that he returned to the bishop all his property.
"A little while later Hendrickson was captured by the United States authorities, and is now in jail at Fairbanks."
Alarm Clock for Drinkers.
A pretty little device of the wicked which is attracting a good deal of attention in restaurants, cabarets, posadas, cafes and hospices these days is called the "jag indicator." It was invented for the benefit of good fellows who do not know when they have had enough to drink. It is a green frog, with pink specks upon its body, and is about three-quarters of an inch long. The customer receives one from the barman, which he is asked to put in his pocket and to place upon the bar before each subsequent drink. After a drink Mr. Crapaud is returned to the pocket. As soon as the customer sees upon the bar more than one frog, or thinks he sees the frog move, he is expected—nay, required—to quit drinking for the day.—N. Y. Press.
The Bodleian Library.
The Bodleian library, which was established in 1445, takes its name from Sir Thomas Bodley, who reestablished the library in 1597-1602, and presented it to the University of Oxford. It contains more than 500,000 printed volumes, 30,000 volumes of manuscripts, a great many first editions and early printings, and collections of coins and pictures.
Volcano Still There
Workmen were driving an artesian well near Pisa, in Italy, recently, when a huge column of gas rose up from the boring made in the ground, followed by an eruption of warm water, sand and mud. Frightened at this unexpected turn of events, the men ran away. Engineers came up and were investigating the phenomenon, when a workman approached with a lighted match. This ignited the escaping gas and a column of fire rose very high, which lit up the neighborhood throughout the whole night. Efforts were made without success to extinguish the fire, which continued for days, accompanied by eruptions of sand and subterranean noises. In ancient times a volcano, known as the San Giuliano, existed on a neighbor ing hill, but has long been inactive.
