FRANKLIN'S PAPER THE STATESMAN People's Church Memorial Service of Building Labor International Protective Union of America Sunday Musical Entertainment NINETEENTH YEAR People' Musical Enter CLARENCE CLARK'S FAREWELL BENEFIT OVERWHELMING SUCCESS. The grand musical recital given for the benefit of Clarence C. Clark at Zion Baptist church on Thursday evening was an unqualified success in every particular. The noticeable feature was the peculiar arrangement of the program in four scenes. The lady ushers, gallant and attentive, escorted all to good seats and were most courteous in the treatment. The stage decorated and ornated with large spreading palms, together with the cluster of electric lights suspended from the center of the choir station gave the shadows cast upon the audience a beautiful and delicate emerald hue. The lights in the center, rear and on the sides were extinguished for this unusual effect. The instrumental solo by Miss Lelia Webster, "The Palms and Its Variations," came to the audience in the opportune time so that, not only her musical ability, her splendid technique and soul stirring manipulation impressed the audience, but the true sense of the interpretation also had much weight. The Centennial Mandolin club, which favored the gathering with two selections, acquitted itself in excellent style. But it would not be amiss to speak of the unique selection so sadly and sentimentally played by them, the associate of the much bereaved one, Julius Fields, who was conspicuous by his absence. "Asleep in the Deep," though given at the recital succeeded in bringing tears to many eyes. Miss Eva Carter, the late musical addition to Denver, so sweetly sang "The Day Is Bended," that she excited much applause. Miss Carter's DENVER, COLORADO, FRIDAY OCTOBER 4, 1907 voice, soft, sweet and penetrating, was well suited for the song. She sung with the Azalia Hackley Choral society with the same sweetness. C. B. Hall, a young white man of the Lyon School of Expression, gave one of the funniest interpretations of the reading, "The Form That Porgot," that has ever been given in Zion Baptist church. He had the house completely upset with laughter and his impersonations. It is needless to say that Mrs. Lillian Jones, as is her usual custom, to receive ovations, was warmly greeted when she sang, "The Great White Throne," and was compelled to respond to her favorite, "Love Me and the World Is Mine." The remarks by Rev. Reynolds on Music were quite timely, appropriate, brief and well appreciated. Rev. J. S. Payne, pastor of the Campbell A. M. E. church, surprised the house with the profound depths in the range of his voice which showed as he sang "Voice of the Deep," harmony, clearness, expression and complete control. He responded to an encore. On "Music Abroad," Rev. Ford, as he was most heartily applauded, spoke of the real appreciation he had of music when he heard the San Carlos company every afternoon and evening render a program for the benefit of the passengers of the ship upon which he was traveling to Rome. Then at Naples, Rome and Venice he spoke of the perfectness of the singing of the wandering minstrels on the streets beneath the hotel windows and the chants of the Franciscan and St. Bernard monks in their unique and extraordinary costumes as they went to mass. Ave Maria was chimed by bells of all the cathedrals. To attempt to flatter Mr. Clarence C. Clark in his musical program is far from our purpose, but in the "Library" scene and "Choir" scene and even in his tenor solo, "O Dry Those Tears," coming after the mandolin club's selection, "Asleep in the Deep," gave Mr. Clark a very enviable reputation of such prominence that none in Denver have yet enjoyed. His odd genius being especially musically sacred impels him to throw his whole life, soul and body in his voice for the salvation if fallen humanity and to the glory of God. A wonderful future awaits Mr. Clark in the musical world. His interpretation, tact and careful yet exact blending of the musical notes is exceptionally grand. Miss Mabelle Fore, Zion Baptist church's favorite and popular organist, rendered incalculable service and demonstrated her musical ability at the key board of the piano. To such an audience of 250 in numbers, who so thoroughly enjoyed the classics, art and musical amusement and enlightenment, Mr. Clark's benefit is but a pleasant evening spent. THE COLORADO MUTUAL VS. THE COMMONWEALTH LIFE. FIVE CENTS A COPY ng Labor Union Sunday MRS. HASKINS-HILL ENTERTAINED. As a guest of Mrs. R. H. George of 2344 Tremon Place, Mr. Hill and Mrs. Lue Haskins-Hill formerly of Denver but now of Colorado Springs, arrived Saturday night to witness the closing of the conference and for a week's visit. While here their many friends and acquaintances royally greeted them, demonstrating Denver's hospitalities and favors on nearly every side. Mrs. Mary Frazier of 2949 Welton street, entertained Mr. and Mrs. Hill at an old fashioned Missouri Sunday dinner. Monday night was when Mrs. Nannie Childs showed her hospitality yto the visiting friends, while on Tuesday afternoon Mrs. Laura Hill entertained them at a four o'clock tea, after which Mrs. George enjoyed their presence at the Broadway in a theater party and later at the Emancipation celebration at East Turner hall. Wednesday night Mrs. Emma McCullough of Cripple Creek treated the popular pair to an expensive and elaborate spread. Mrs. Travick of 2027 Humboldt street, together with a select party of visitors dined them at seven o'clock dinner Thursday night. Mrs. Monroe Tompkins, after luncheon at the Kline and then visiting Elitch's gardens, Golden and other scenic points, gave them one of the swellest luncheons of their lives Friday night. Sunday morning a "Reunion" breakfast was enjoyed with Mrs. R. H. George as the hostess and many old acquaintances present, while at noon Mrs. Chas. Overton gave her a very dainty and attractive luncheon and with Mrs. Travick's seven-course Sunday night dinner closed their continuous sea of pleasantry after which Mr. and Mrs. Hill left for home profuse in their praise of Denver and their extraordinary entertainment while here. Mr. and Mrs. Hill returned to Colorado Springs after a most enoyable visit with their friends. Miss Myrtle E. Roberts, sister of Mrs. Fred Roberts, is here for the winter from Los Angeles, Cal. Miss Roberts will attend the Colorado College Conservatory of Music. --- Paradise. “Whah not only de wicked ceases from troublin,’ an’ de weary am at rest, but whah,” here Parson Crinkle- top lowered his voice to a hoarse whis- per, while he leaned far over the pul- pit to look his awestruck flock fuller in the face, “dey has ter stop in de middle ob de collecksin to go an’ empty de box!"—Puck, No Ingenuity In Names.

Quiet, gentle dignity can accomplish a great deal, and when face to face with those who possess this calm, self-reliant manner of speaking we can not fail to realize its tremendous importance. It is a delight and a pleasure to hear a voice perfectly cultured and sympathetic—a voice that rings with kindness. It is an advantage, a valuable asset in both the social and business world. Wedding Ring Superstition. A quaint superstition is prevalent in many English villages. When a woman is going to be married every effort is made to pavevent her from seeing her wedding ring before the ceremony, as it is considered that a sight of it except at the altar is bound to bring bad luck. The Point of View. "The merits of a thing," mused the Homemade Philosopher, "depend altogether on circumstances. For instance, sawdust on an icy pavement may save a big man's neck, while discovered inside a dolly it will break a little girl's heart." A Corean Pillow. Those who are not acquainted with the appointmens of a Corean bedroom will be surprised to learn that the other day in the town of Anak one gambler who was down on his luck threw a pillow at the head of the winner and fractured his skull. Modern Reading. Fielding and Smollett wrote in the language of their age, which did not call a spade an agricultural implement. But they were wholesomeness itself as compared with the suggestiveness of much modern literature. The Academy. Dress and Mind. Dowdiness in person expresses the mental attitude of a woman quite as clearly as the smartness of the coquette. The latter is obviously bent on pleasing, the former is certain that she cannot, and therefore refuses to enter the lists.—The World. Gathering From Tree of Life. Each day is a branch of the tree of life, laden heavily with fruit. It we lie down lazily beneath it we may starve; but if we shake the branches some of the fruit will fall for us. Longfellow. Railroad Building in China. Hardly a province of China has escaped the recent mania for railways, and if all the lines projected are carried out some of the remotest parts of the empire will be rendered easy of access. Economical Gas Making. In Germany gas is manufactured on canal boats and used to supply the engines which propel the boats. The system is economical and satisfactory on moderate-sized boats. Virtue of Difficulty. Difficulty is a severe instruction set over us by the supreme ordinance of a paternal guardian and legislator who knows us better than we know ourselves.—Burka. THE STATESMAN. DENVER. COLORADO. First Autograph Album. The first autograph album appeared in Germany in that century; it was alled the "Album Amicorum," and was an octavo book, bound lengthwise. Among the Egerton manscripts in the British museum there is such an album dated 1554. The oldest obtainable letters date back about 500 years, and the oldest documents are dated about 1.000 years ago. Tryina It Oh the Doctor. There is a humorous touch about the misfortunes of a worker among cholera victims in the Punjab. One of the staff made himself ill by drinking an uncomfortable amount of cholera mix ure, as some parents allowed him to administer a dose only on condition that he himself first led the way to show his belief in it.—Madras Weekly Mail. Astonished the Grocer. Harry was sent to the grocery store for five pounds of pulverized sugar. In a childish manner, he kept the name fresh in his mind by repeating it over and over all the way to the store. On reaching the store he went to the clerk and said: "My mamma says to please send up five pounds of paralyzed sugar." Gentleman of the Old School. The earl of Buchan was to the end of his life, although eccentric, a great social favorite and "a terrible flirt." On leaving a room he would take leave of the prettiest young lady with old-fashioned courtesy, and say, "Good-by, my dear; and pray remember that Margaret, countess of Buchan, is not immortal." The Horse He Wanted. A Scotch farmer bought a horse. Going home he thought a drink would refresh it, so he got a pail of water, but the animal would not take it. On reaching home he gave it a feed of corn, but it would not touch that either. "Ye're the vera horse for me if ye only work!" the farm... was heard to say. Cdoriferous London. Every great city is characterized by certain odors of its own. The smell of London suggests hansom cabs, smoke, asphalt, lucifer matches, church hassocks and Virginia pipe tobacco, animated by a whiff of the sea and punctuated by coal tar.—London Academy. Fish Welcome Coming of Storm. The weather has a noticeable effect on fish of all kinds. Fishermen will tell you that trout become electrified with energy before a storm. As if in joyful anticipation of a feast, sharks disport playfully about ships before a hurricane rises. New Variety of Cotton. An Indian government report describes the results of experiments with Caravonica cotton, a tree variety in Queensland, as tending to prove that it will succeed as a field crop, so much so that the experiments will be considerably extended. Best Cure For Sleeplessness. Brain workers are particularly liable to sleeplessness. Their occupation brings overstrain of the nervous system and when they go to bed they toss upon restless pillows. The cure is ozone, and not drugs. Pictures of Eminent Negroes Actual photo-post cards of such leaders as WASHINGTON, DOUG LAS, DUNBAR and DUBOIS; COLLEGES and HISTORIC PLACES.

Rev. Byas is making strenuous ef- forts to establish a preachers’ alliance in our city. There are about six col- ored preachers who could take part.

THE STATESMAN. DENVER. COLORADO. "Better not kiss me. People will think we are just married." A Lawrence dentist, according to the Kansas City Journal, has discovered a scheme for making his patients keep their mouths open. Almost every one has seen the picture which is rivaling "The Whole Dam Family," and is called "A Yard of Yawns." The picture is a yard long, containing the pictures of a whole family, each member of which, from great-grandad to the baby, is yawning violently. Yawning, as many people know to their sorrow, is violently contagious, and one person yawning has often set a roomful of people to yawning. The double simply has the picture hanging to view of the dental chair, and he says that all of his patients are constantly yawning. She—But I have not a farthing in the world. He—Ah! but you did not let me snash I was going to say, "I love you not." She—Indeed! I only meant to put you to the test. The fact is, I have a fortune of £60,000. He—Yes, but you again interrupted me just now. What I meant to say was, "I love you not for the sake of your money." She—So glad to hear you say that! It was all a joke about the £60,000!—Tit-Bita. Few Call Attention to it. You never hear a man who had only $50 when he was married boasting about it before his yearly income passes the $10,000 mark. EVERY DAY A NEW ONE. Forget Errors of Yesterday in the Possibilities of Today. Here is a pretty bit of optometric philosophy, inspired by so ordinary an occurrence as the daily guarding: "Did you know the sun rose every morning? There are many persons who do not know this important fact, or, if they do know, they do not act accordingly. These persons carry yesterday's burdens and successes and failures. The failures of yesterday should be forgotten, because they dishearten us for today. The successes of yesterday should not be remembered, because they will weigh against the larger possible successes of to-day. The burdens of yesterday should have been buried yesterday. That is one meaning of the surprising. It shuts off yesterday. The sun rises as fair and bright and new this morning as though it had not risen snow every morning of these 6,000 years. It brings a new day with new opportunities. Yesterday is shut off from today by the curtain of the night and the sun rises in the morning to usher in the new day. There are men in this town who are gray with the burdens of yesterday when they might be buoyant with the brightness of to-day's dawn. They have forgotten that the sun has risen." CROW HAD $200 RING. Feathered Pet's Liking for Bright Things Was Unfortunate. A $200 diamond ring was stolen from Mrs. Herman Stoddard's bedroom, Verona, N. J., the black thief was killed and the ring recovered. Mrs. Stoddard loves birds. She calls her home "The Aviary." She feeds birds and builds homes for them on the estate. No they become quite fearless, but, of all, a crew has shown the greatest fameness and familiarity. The windows of Mrs. Stoddard's room were open, her rings were on a dresser. A maid entered the room; the crow was on the dresser; it said "caw" pleasantly to the maid. Sew out of a window and perched on a tree branch near. The maid told Mrs. Stoddard, who could not find her engagement ring, where she had left it. She was leath to believe that any of her pets was dishonest, but the crow was under such strong suspicion that Adolph Schmidt shot it. He cut open its crop; there was the ring. Around the bird's leg was a leather band with three flukes of a small brass chain, sowing that it had been in captivity at some time. Parting at the Station. Those who listened so the man and woman parted at the station heard this conversation: "Goodby, dear." "Goodby. Don't forget to tell Bridge to have the chops for dinner." "All right." "And be sure and feed the canary." "Hure." "Look up the silver eaves right." "And don't forget that the gazman is coming to renew the burners. Be sure and have him put the four-foot burner in the servant's room." "I'll remember." "Order hindling wood on Wednesday." "All right." "Consult the list I made out if you forget anything." The image shows two silhouettes of human heads facing each other. The left silhouette appears to have a more pronounced forehead and a slightly more rounded face, while the right silhouette has a more rounded forehead and a slightly more rounded face. The background is a uniform gray tone. MRS. T. D.PERKINS SCIENTIFIC SCALP TREATMENT "I will." "Not if they have been listening." Dentlist's Shrewd Scheme. Love and Love. Few Call Attention to it. PAGE 13. CLEVER TRICK OF THIEVES. Use Offensive Odor of Onions to Aid in Shoplifting. "Incredible as it may seem," said Lecoq, the detective, "there are a number of shoplifters who steal by the agency of the onion. These abandoned men, before setting out upon their contemplated crimes, eat of raw onions abundantly. Then they stroll into the silversmith's or the haberdasher's or the jeweler's that they propose to rob. 'Show me those large solitaires surrounded with pigeon-blood rubles, please,' says the jeweler thief. The clerk brings forth the tray of gems and, bending over it, the thief sighs with admiration. His face close to the clerks, he sighs again. And the clerk's nostrils quiver and he turns away his head. The inspection of diamonds continues for some minutes. Throughout it the thief keeps breathing hard, the clerk keeps turning his head away and hence it is no wonder at the day's end that a couple of costly rings are missing." A Dog Worth Knowing. Two years ago a boy 14 years old named Edward Sweeney, living at Opelika, Ala., was followed home by a small dog. The animal was bobtailed and squint-eyed and by no means good looking, and the boy was laughed at for having him around. Within a week, however, the dog brought home a five-dollar bill in his mouth. The next week he brought a silver dollar. Then he brought a pocket knife, and followed that with a dollar bill. There has hardly been a week in these two years that the dog has not found something. He makes it his business to hunt the streets and highways, and often travels a distance of 30 miles. Up to the present date he has found and brought home $38 in cash, besides many useful things.

THE STATESMAN, DENVER, COLORADO. WENT HOME FOR WARRIOR. Dog Evidently Had Reasoned Out the Situation. C. B. Shockley, who lives across the river, was recently plowing in some new ground near the edge of the river hills, says an Oklahoma correspondent of the Kansas City Journal. He was accompanied by a half-grown shepherd dog. The dog in hunting went over a small hill and soon came kiting back with a coyote close to his heels. Seeing the man the coyote ran back and the dog plucked courage to follow. Out of sight of his master he weakened and came back over the hill with the coyote after him. This was repeated several times, to the amusement of Mr. Shockley, who offered neither counsel nor assistance, meaning to see how the dog would figure it out. He had not long to wait. The dog sat down and seemed to think over the situation, and then started for the house on a keen run. He was back in a very short time, accompanied by a big dog whose reputation as a coyote fighter was established. The young dog led the old one over the hill and soon the coyote had disappeared. Tough Cat. An instance of the remarkable vitality possessed by the cat has just been demonstrated at Herbling, Eng. A very fine cross-bred Perrian mysteriously disappeared from its home, and 16 days later was found in an open field secured in a rabbit trap. Notwithstanding the animal's long and painful confinement and exposure to the heavy rains, it was still alive. It was, however, reduced to a mere skeleton and was unable to walk, but under proper treatment it is recovering. That the cat had been in the ap all the time is beyond question, as otherwise it would have returned home to a kitten which it was suckling at the date of its disappearance. Child's Remarkable Suicide. A remarkable case of suicide by the 14-year-old daughter of a farm laborer named Beecham was revealed at an inquest at Weston-super-Mare, England, recently. It was stated that the girl was of an obstinate and determined character and guilty of persistent falsehoods. She was entrusted with a dress to take to the village dressmaker for remaking for herself, but returned with the statement that it was too good to cut up. Unknown to her parents she sold the dress to a villager for four shillings, and on this being discovered she walked to a level crossing, put her head across the metals, and was decapitated by a passing train. Wooden Flywheel. After an accident to the flywheel in a large European electric station the superintendent designed and had constructed a flywheel of wood which has a diameter of 65 feet and a rim width of ten feet. The thickness of the rim is about 12 inches and it is made up of 44 thicknesses of beech planks with staggered joints. The boards were glued together and then bolted. The inside consists of a double wheel, the 24 spokes of which are fastened to two hubs. Spokes and hubs are operated at 76 revolutions a minute, which corresponds to a peripheral speed at the rim of 139 feet a second. PITCH TAYLOR, Prop.

Little girls make a play of one thing that in after years becomes labor, labor of love though it is. So soon as a girl is old enough, perhaps three or four, her dolly is tied to her back in the same way that she was fastened to her nurse's back when she was a baby. She carries this about while at play, and as she grows older a larger doll is used until she has grown accustomed to the weight and is able to carry her baby brother or sister, thus relieving her mother, who perhaps works in the rice fields or in a tea garden.—Laura B.

WALLER Secretary and Manager OUR WASHINGTON LETTER P. S. TWISTER. HOWARD UNIVERSITY. Howard University is the most useful institution of learning in the world today. But the experiences of the last two years within her portals have given rise to doubts and fears. When she was founded, the purpose was to make or her a great American university, the field of reconciliation between the aspiring and confliting elements of the people. Her ideal was the American Ideal, the Fatherhood of God and the brotherhood of man. Her mission was the education of youth in the liberal arts and sciences. From this her founders hoped she would never depart. Forty years have passed since she was founded, and her graduates and sometime students, numbering nearly 12,000 men and women, have vindicated the wisdom of Summer, of Hoar, cated the wisdom of Sumner, of Hoar What this army of men and women have contributed to the national welfare has returned a thousand fold more than was given for the possibility. And calmly viewed in the light of the past, no reason can be found in this day of all dys, for a departure from the ideal of the founders. But the "pressure of our economic life" has reared the hydra-headed monster of industrialism within her walls. Fate or fortune placed Dr. Wilbur Patterson Thirkield at the head of the University. He came heralded as a friend to the man of color, a "money-getter," a priest and prophet of God. Upon this representation he was accepted and arms were opened to him and he was received as no other man was ever received in the history of the University. His record justified the faith that was imposed. Yet scarcely two years have passed and this is the history. Dr. Thirkield assumed charge of the University, although he has not yet been inaugurated, and but a short time had passed before there were rumors abroad that he meant to industrialize the institution. This was put aside with a sneer and the argument was presented that the son-in-law of Bishop Haven would never depart from an ideal and debase a principle. As time went on Dr. Thirkield would place more and more emphasis upon "modern education," and bestow unstinted praise upon the men engaged in industrial training. But this was not the occasion of alarm or notice that he had forsaken the ideals of Bishop Haven. It was not until he made the declaration that "if I could, I would immediately install a technical (meaning industrial) plant in Howard University worth a half million dollars ($500,000). Following close upon this sweeping and unprecedented declaration came the appointments upon the board of trustees of Howard University of four men known to represent the interests of the most extreme views of industrial- PAGE 2 THE STATESMAN, DENVER, COLORADO ization of all the agencies by which people of color in America profit. These were Dr. Booker T. Washington, Dr. Mooreland, the Y. M. C. A. worker; Dr. J. H. N. Waring, of Baltimore, and the manager of the Baldwin Locomotive works of Philadelphia, Pa. This step Dr. Thirkield regarded as the most effective achievement of his life. The motive was to get money, and to get money an industrial plant must be established in Howard University. The annual commencement came, Dr. Parks Cadman of New York addressed the students graduating upon that occasion, and in doing so he paid tribute after tribute to Dr. Washington, but no applause was given. Dr. Thirkield went upon the platform upon that occasion amid a depressing unwelcome silence. There was resentment against his attempt to industrialize Howard University. Then there followed events which point toward a dark and dangerous chasm. Men long connected with the institution severed their connection with it, new appointments were made and confusion reigns. Dr. Frederick W. Fairfield, who for more than a quarter of a century was connected with the university has gone, W. P. Hay, professor of biology, has gone, Mrs. Jacobs, the matron, has resigned, Miss Anette Anderson, one of the ablest teachers the university ever had, has gone, Mr. Bowers, theetaois has gone; Professor George W Cook has accepted a position outside the university, Mr. Bowers, the engineer, has gone; the superintendent of buildings and grounds, resigned, but was persuaded to remain, and Dr. Lewis B. Moore has moved from the university, where he has been comfortably and conveniently located for many years. All these changes may not be due to the policy of Dr. Thirkield, but, somehow, the people hold him responsible for the conditions that obtain. His attitude upon the question of industrialism, and his actions and utterances in support of that attitude lead to the conclusion that his purpose is to take the university from its moorings and carry out his wish that an industrial plant be made there large enough to overshadow and destroy the place of all places where the principle of equality is maintained. Thoughtful people remember the assets which Dr. Thirkield has. They know that he is the son-in-law of Bishop Haven and taught theology at Gammon Theological Seminary. For these assets they are willing to give him credit, and do, but are determined to hold him responsible for the errors that have been made. They do not know why preachers have been appointed to teach Greek and biology, and cannot see why a young man just out of college should be made a full professor in a university.

THE STATESMAN, DENVER, COLORADO. (Continued from page 2.) there is a tendency to believe that the co-ordinate standing of the depart- ments {8 not appreciated and as a re- sult jealousies have arisen, and un- less a wise statesman maintains a proper calm children of the same great university family will be at war. This condition, rightly or wrongly, is traced to Dr. Thirkield and he is held responsible. In this no injustice {s meant Dr. Thirkleld; all we say here is for the good of all, as we understand it. And we do not overlook the asset that moved the colored members of the board of trustees to urge the appoint- ment of Dr. Thirkield. That asset was his ability to get money. Two years have passed and still the ques- tion comes: Where is the money that Dr. Thirkield has raised for the un! versity? Inquirles as to this reveal nothing of valve. And on this point the people feel that he has failed. This may be a premature judgment, it may be heaping upon the shoulders of an innocent man more than belongs there; but they, the people, maintain that headship carries responsibility; praise and condmnation are its com- mon lot. It may be that Dr. Thirkield feels nimself before the onward rush of an irresistable tide. The pressure of sentiment may force strong men to desert ideals, turn from the paths, which, when trod throughout th years, bring success and accept the easier course for a temporary gain. That this view Is taken does not indi cate a misfortune or a fault, but siz- nifies a limitation, an inability to grasp the great truths of life and destiny. In such a struggle as this one, all should not be condemnation, for a man in such a plight as this deserves our pity. But man is an end, not a means, and he should never forsake and reject an ideal. He should not only maintal nit himself, but when it is given him to train the young, should point the mto the ideal that is true. Such is the record for the past But what of the future? Is the fu- ture sky of hope and promise colored with a hoseate hue? We believe it Is. The doubts and fears that beset us today will pass away and out of this struggle Howard University will rise serenely and more powerful and use- ful than before. That she is passing through a crisis all men in ali the walks of life fully understand, Yet fu- ture generations will see her as use- ful in the future as she has been in the past, when short-sighted men have passed from place and power and a proper appreciation of her serv- ice to mankind ts felt. Our cause is just, it must and shall prevail. Among the things said by the speak- ers at the emancipation celebration Tuesday night, was a statement of Rey. J. E. Ford that the colored clt- izens of Denver were enjoying a rep- resentation in the public service such as they have never had before in the city’s history. This is literally true and in a degree that few people ap- preciate. We have now two repre- sentative places in the state service, with salaries aggregating more than $2,000 per year. We have four rep- re sentative places in the county ser- vice with salaries aggregating nearly $4,000 per year. We have the old time number of janitors in the county and state service, to say nothing of the new places at the mint and an in- creased number at the federal build- ing. In addition to these we have ievil service appointments in the postal and mint service aggregating two dozen more places. Few cities of our population can boast so much. The remarkable thing about it all is that these places excepting a dozen postoffice position and some panitor. ships, have all come in the last three years. It is characteristic to remem- ber complaints and grievances and forget service done, But in this mat- ter the service is so signal, that he who runs may read. Thought Ride Sufficient Reward. An official of tie Brooklyn street car lines tells the following story: “There was a new conductor put on burriedly one Monday morning, with out being tnformed fully as to details. On Saturéay afternuon as he was sit ting te the baru, a fellow eonductor said to him, ‘Why don’t you go up te the office an, get your pay? The new man looked up in surprise. “What, dc they pay you wages too he asked.” Went Long Without Food. | How long can an anima! live with out eating?

THE ONLY COMPANY THAT HAS COMPLIED. The Union Health and Accident Company is the only home institution that has complied with the new law by depositing with the State of Colorado ONE HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS as a guarantee that the rights of the policy holders will be protected. There are many companies soliciting business whose resources are less than three hundred dollars, and more than twenty of them have failed during the past few years. It would appear that there is no chance of their success, in view of the fact that the people have their choice of a strong or weak concern, the cost of insuring being the same. DON'T BE A SUCKER. You can't afford to insure or continue your policy, unless your company has a deposit with the state. You have no protection whatever, except the word of the officers of the company, and if they at any time elect to discontinue the business, you can whistle for your money. Don't be a lobster. Take insurance with a company having a deposit with the state; it is a guarantee that your rights will be protected now and for all time to come. Union Health & Accident Co. Dear Sirs:—Permit me to thank you for your check for $28.00, in payment of my recent claim for illness. I appreciate my membership in the Union, because it is a reliable company, and I have no fear that after I have paid in a lot of money the company will discontinue. Sincerely. MRS. FLORENCE AMES. Union Health & Accident Co. Gentlemen:—I beg to acknowledge your check for $207.65 paid to me on account of fracture of left arm.

DURING SEPTEMBER The Union Health and Accident Company issued eight hundred and ten policies; paid to members for claims twenty-two hundred dollars. The company has recently opened up five branch offices, two in Washington, two in Kansas and one in New Orleans, La. October will be a record month, and we shall probably issue during this month one thousand policies. There can be only one solution of the rapid growth of this company, it is this: The people want protection, not promises, and the one hundred thousand dollars deposited with the state for their protection meets with their approval.

The tyranny of Mr. Haldane in re moving the Scots Greys from Edin- burgh has brought to light again a long ago forgotten incident of military interest to Scotland. Years ago, in Cromwell's time, an island off the Coast of Scotland was garrisoned by & number of Ironsides, and they were actually forgotten. At any rate, the troops were never withdrawn, and rec ord avers that the men intermarried with the islanders and became a part of the local population. The fort— or rather the ruins of it—in which Cromwell's soldiers were stationed may still be seen by the curious— Court Journal. The “Bachelor Girl.” “Bachelor girl” is said to be dis placing “old maid” in current speech. Ben Jonson used the word “bachelor” to mean a single woman. In the old French “bachelette’ meant a young and pretty girl, especially if she had a lover. Etymology has nothing to Say against a feminine “bachelor,” since the word seems to be the late Latin “baccalarius,” a farm servant, or more literally a cowherd (bacca or vacca, meaning cow), and “baccalart- us” had a feminine “baccalaria.” A Trenton Warnin+.

A London literary critic thinks that laughter is unmoral. Physicians say it is a splendid aid to digestion. Shall we be morally dyspeptic or unmorally happy? He's Entitled to It. The dog that barks at the moon gets the same kind of satisfaction that is experienced by a weak man who scoffs at the work a great man does. Brick House Most Lasting.

It is only by labor that thought can be made healthy, and only by thought that labor can be made happy.—Ruskin. Damascus in the Lead. Damascus is the first city in the Turkish empire to be lit with electricity and have electric street cars. Impulse Breeds Impulse.

In the "Dictionarium Domesticum Being a New and Compleat Household Dictionary for the Use Both of City and Country" (1736), is this sure cure for a malady which has in modern times been regarded as rather obstinate: "For lunacy and madness—Boil three large handfuls of ground ivy, shred small, in two quarts of wine till there is but one-third part remaining; then strain it and add to it six ounces of the best salad oil; boil it up to an ointment, shave the patient's head, warm the ointment and chafe his head with it. This is Dr. Wadenfield's remedy, with which a person is said to have cured 60 lunatick persons." PAGE 8. PUEBLO. NOTICE The C. T. U. Club ON Thursday Oct.10,'07 GRAND JUNCTION.
