FRANKLIN'S PAPER THE STATESMAN CONFERENCE OF RACE LEADERS NINETEENTH YEAR CONFERENCE RACE The management of the Negro Department of the Jamestown Exposition is planning to close the race's magnificent display in a veritable "blaze of glory." The program for the occasion will take the form of a "Race Conference" in which many of the most distinguished colored men and women of the country will participate. The main feature, aside from appropriate music and group discussions, will be a symposium on "The Future of the Negro," covering the progress of the race from the landing of the African bondman on this very spot 300 years ago, and tracing, through statistics and personal experience, the remarkable record this people has made in the arts and sciences, in education, religion, business and in the industrial pursuits, up to the present day. The history of the Negro's past will be made to serve as a basis from which to evolve some tangible suggestions looking to a brighter future and the garnering up, in a constructive fashion, of the inspiration and lessons derived from this epoch-making exhibit. Among the eminent speakers who have been invited to take part in the proposed "Race Conference" are Dr. Booker T. Washington, principal of Tuskegee Normal and Industrial Institute; Dr. William Tecumseh Vernon, register of the United States treasury; Hon. Ralph W. Tyler, auditor for the Navy Department; Hon. John C. Dancy, recorder of deeds for the District of Columbia; Justice Robert H. Terrell of the Municipal court of Washington; Bishop Abraham Grant, of the A. M. E. church; Bishops Alexander Walters and G. W. --- Clinton, or the A. M. E. Zion church; Rev. W. G. Taylor, Right Worthy Grand Master of the United Order of True Reformers; Hon. S. W. Starks, Supreme Chancellor of the Knights of Pythias; Hon. W. L. Houston, Grand Master of the G. U. O. of O. F.; Hon. Charles W. Anderson, collector of Internal Revenue, New York City; Rev. J. H. Jones, president of Wilberforce University; Rev. W. H. Goler, president of Livingstone College; Dr. A. M. Curtis, of Washington, D. C.; Dr. J. E. Shepard, field worker for the International Sunday School Association; Dr. R. H. Boyd, manager of the National Baptist Publishing House; Editor M. M. Lewey, of the Florida Sentinel; Dr. E. W. Lampton, of the A. M. E. church, financial secretary; Prof. R. R. Wright, president of the Georgia State Industrial Institute College, Georgia; Mr. Fred R. Moore, manager of the New York Age; Mrs. Mary Church Terrell, the popular lecturer and magazine writer; Mrs. Lucy G. Thompson, president of the National Association of Colored Women; Miss Nannie H. Buroughs, corresponding secretary of the Baptist Woman's Auxiliary; Miss Marie A. D. Madre, president of Bethel Library Society at Washington, D. C., and many others of like prominence. As the time set, Thursday, Friday and Saturday, November 28, 29 and 30, is the Thanksgiving period, during which many thousands of teachers will have a vacation, and many department workers at Washington and elsewhere will be desirous of spending the season profitably as well as pleasurably, the indications point to a large attendance at this brilliant closing feature of the best exposition the negro has ever had on the American continent. CHORAL CLUB SINKING FUND Already outside of this musical organization a very noticeable, yet quiet agitation is being in evidence as to a sinking fund for a choral building. No longer can the society hope to restrain its membership to meet in the different homes because of its recent increase of musical material. There is scarcely a house in Denver that is arranged so as to advantageously accommodate the club. Hence the members have begun to make their wants known to the friends who in turn are beginning to discuss the pro and con of the project. That the building is a necessity there is no question and that the edifice will be built is equally evident, but the perplexity arises as to just what methods, means or devices can the club and its friends put forth that will accelerate the movement. Which are the better, which are the surest and which are actions in which all of Denver can assist and play a part? As you know, the Choral Society in the musical world speaks for the negro as does the Alliance speak in the political, social and economic world. And the people of Denver have enough loyalty, interest and patriotism of race pride not to let an institution like this society fail for the want of proper support. The club is only trying to make and develop a conservatory of music not so much for the present boys and girls as will later benefit the babies now in the cradle and in their mothers' arms. Somebody must look, plan, scheme musically now, for after while, because ten years from now will be the after while. The Choral Society has taken this burden in a way upon their shoulders. They intend to bring musi- FIVE CENTS A COPY LUB KING FUND cal talent to the city in order that our young, whose inclinations may be such, shall get a higher inspiration and a deeper resolution to attain mastership. It is a worthy purpose that is what they think. What do you think? ENTERTAIN FRIENDS. At the cozy and snug cottage of Mr. and Mrs. Chas. S. Muse last Wednesday night happened one of the daintiest evening parties yet experienced in that section by our society folk. It was an entertainment given by Miss Thirklas to her friends who, as they reluctantly left, were very generous in paying her compliments for the social function. Everything harmonized, the color scheme, the weather, the profuse decorations, the refreshments and commodious quarters even spoke in blending symphonies. Prominent among the guests were Misses Eva Carter, Elizabeth Brown, Annie Baptist, Maria Jeter, Margaretta Willis and Mesdames Lillie Moore, A. A. Waller, T. E. McClain and E. L. Faulkner, also Messrs. Brown, Gaskins, Waller and Drs. W. A. Jones, T. E. McClain and Faulkner. Mr. and Mrs. C. S. Muse assisted in showing the hospitality of the evening. PINK TEA. Mrs. Busby's pink tea at Scott M. E. church, in which so many of its members starred, was a decided success. The play was quite laughable while the prefaced program was intellectually enjoyed. The attendance was unusually large and a happy time was had by all. The social had the support of nearly every church in the community. --- THE STATESMAN, DENVER, COLORADO. a (Continued from page 7.)

"You poor man," said Mr. Henpeck, who was for the first time seeing the inside of a lunatic asylum, "how long have you been here? Can you remember?" "Oh, yes; very well," replied the patient; "seven years. You see, they let me do pretty near as I please because I'm harmless." "Are you married?" "Sure. I have a wife who used to throw things at me every time I came in the house." "How sad! Do you know how she manages to live?" "She's getting along all right. Her brother, who is a rich bachelor, is takin' care of her. He never would give up a cent, though, as long as I was able to work, confound him." "And what do you do here?" "Sit around mostly, smokin' and waitin' for the next meal time." "Say," said the visitor, speaking softly, and drawing a little nearer to the patient, "just between ourselves, how did you get them to send you here?"—Chicago Record-Herald. A Disquised Hint. The crowd surrounding the balky animal opens somewhat when the man who looks as though he knew horse-flesh asks what is the matter. "This mare of mine has balked," explains the owner of the rig. "I can't get her to go in any direction." "Have you tried to back her?" asks the stranger. "Why, I never thought of that," answers the driver, getting down and taking a plug of tobacco from his pocket. He holds it to the animal's nose and at once it starts down the road. With the self-possession which marks the man of perfect poise, the horsey man turns and goes away smiling as though in pity of the ignorance of the others. Not for Her. An English vegetarian proposed to a woman, whereupon she delivered herself of the following scathing words: "Go along with you! What? Be flesh of your flesh, and you a-living on cabbage? Go and marry a grass widow!" Suiting the Action "How many new ideas one can pick up in the course of one's travels!" soliloquized the shoplifter, deftly concealing a picture hat of the latest pattern under her long cloak as she passed the millinery counter. Human Responsibility. No human being can come into this world without increasing or diminishing the sum total of human happiness, not only of the present, but of every subsequent age of humanity.—Ellhu Burritt. Jewsharp Corner. With an extraordinary outlay of about $150 in gold coin, Dell Scully cornered the jewsharp market here, buying the last 500 of those instruments known to be in existence. These he distributed broadcast among the youngsters of the town and among the relic hunters of maturer age, and the testive twang of the hideous things was heard on all corners last night, to the discomfiture of all the cats and dogs in Astoria Christendom. The Astorian. THE STATESMAN, DENVER, COLORADO. Aluminium Paper Made in Germany Is Useful for Protecting Food. Aluminium paper is now manufactured in Germany and recommended as a substitute for tin foil. According to a consular report it is not the so-called leaf aluminium, and is said to possess very favorable qualities for preserving articles of food, for which it is used as a covering. Chemical analysis has proved that aluminium paper contains but few foreign substances; occasionally it may contain up to 2 per cent of iron, but never any arsenic or other poisonous metals. Hence it appears that the powdered aluminium used for the manufacture of aluminium paper is relatively pure. The paper used is a sort of artificial parchment, obtained through the action of sulphuric acid upon ordinary paper. The sheets are spread out and covered upon one side with a thin coating of a solution of resin in alcohol or ether. Evaporation is precipitated through a current of air and the paper is then warmed until the resin has again become soft. Then powdered aluminium is sprinkled upon it and the paper subjected to strong pressure to fasten the powder thereon. The metallic covering so obtained is neither affected by the air nor by fatty substances. Aluminium paper is much cheaper than tin foil and will, so it is thought in Germany, become a strong competitor thereof. UMBRELLA THIEF'S NEW 7 CK. Changing Handles is the Latest Professional Wrinkle. "About the slickest umbrella lifter in town dropped in yesterday," remarked the head barber in one of the aptown hotels. "You don't say," replied the man in the chair. "How did he operate?" "Oh, he was a changer." "Ah, I see. He brought in an old umbrella and walked out with a new one." "Oh, no; that's an old, clumsy game that was worked twenty years ago. This chap was up to the times and cribbed the rain shields by deftly changing handles. He carried a full stock of handles and when he sighted a fine silk umbrella with a gold or silver handle he slipped it off and screwed on something entirely different. Then he dropped the original handle in his pocket and leisurely awaited his opportunity to slip out without attracting attention. "As everybody identifies their umbrella by the handle, this 'lifter' can walk right past you with your own umbrella and you never notice it. Oh, the world is moving, and even the umbrella thief keeps up with the times these days." And the head barber changed the subject to hair tonics.—New York Globe. ```markdown ``` Cpposes Church Inventory. Cardinal Richard, archbishop of Paris, has addressed a circular letter to the priests of his diocese in which he declares that he will never permit the tabernacles to be opened for the agents charged with making inventories of church goods and instructs them to declare on their words of honor as priests the number and the value of sacred vessels, but on no account to open the tabernacles Pictures of Eminent Negroes Actual photo-post cards of such leaders as WASHINGTON, DOUG LAS, DUNBAR and DUBOIS; COLLEGES and HISTORIC PLACES.

Lightner of Denver is in the city holding a series of meetings this week. Mrs. Zach Badget entertained at 6 o'clock dinner last Sunday Mr. and Mrs. Harry Badget. Mr. Claude Tyler was the guest of Mr. Harry Wilson last Sunday. The people of La Junta were very much surprised Sunday morning when they awoke and found it snowing. The blizzard continued during the day, much to the disadvantage of the church services. On account of the inclementy of the weather the congregation at each service was quite small. This being the day set apart to raise the pastor's salary, also to take communion, it was hoped that the church would be filled to the utmost capacity. Rev. W. H. Prince filled the pulpit at 11 a. m. and 7:30 p. m., and at each service delivered able and instructive sermons. The N. U. G. Club met with Miss S. Starkey last Thursday, at the residence of Mr. and Mrs. Zach Badget, on Harriet avenue. The usual routine of work and business was carried out. At the social hour a dainty lunch was served at said hour. Mrs. Zach Badget surprised all present with a delicious course of fruit, consisting of grapes, stuffed dates and figs. Mrs. Badget is a lovely lady and never loses an opportunity to bring rays of sunshine to some one that might otherwise be sad, by her hospitality. The members of the club departed to their several homes wishing that they might have an opportunity of calling at the residence of Mrs. Badget on next Thursday. The N. U. G. Club will meet with Mrs. Saunders next Thursday. We hope those who have promised to attend the Allen Christian Endeavor Society won't forget the time and place—Hubbard Chapel, A. M.

Lewis are contemplating a trip East soon. Sunlight Puts Fires Out. "An oven or stove should never be built where the sun will strike it," said an architect. "Sunlight puts fire out you know. "I had often heard from old women that fires would not burn well if the sun shone on them, but I thought this was a superstition. I thought the fires only seemed to burn less well because the bright light of the sun made their flames look pale and weak. I was wrong, though. "It is a fact that sunlight, on a range or stove, will weaken and eventually extinguish the fire. The reason is that the run's rays hinder combustion, rarefying the air and lessening the bulk of oxygen so necessary to a good, bright blaze." Heroism. There is a good deal of heroism in the world of the sort that gets into the public eye and receives medals as a reward, as the giving out of 63 such tokens of gold, silver or bronze by the Carnegie hero fund commission attests, comments a writer in the Boston Transcript. There is more of the splendid stuff indeed than even the firmest believers in human nature's good qualities would quite think possible without all the gratifying figures at hand to prove its existence. And when one reflects that the heroism which may be known of all men is only about one-thousandth part as great as the sort that never will and never may be known if makes one feel that the world and the times are good. --- The Noisy City. It was deeply significant that although Rome raised a statue to Quiet she placed it outside the walls.—W. Romaine Patterson in "The Nemesis of Nations." Clothes. Once in a while some man gets his position in society so firmly established that he can wear shabby clothes and still be envied. No woman has ever achieved that distinction. HARRIS' ORCHESTRA TACT MARK OF TRUE KINDNESS. Proceeds From the Heart, While Policy Is From the Head. A high fence should be built between the words tact and policy for the benefit of those who cannot see the bordering line. "Oh! I have no tact," they say with a satisfied air. "Tact and policy are things I know nothing about." And yet the two qualities are as distinct as north and south. Tact comes from the heart, and policy from the head. Policy is inspired by selfish interests and is a treacherous quality that one might well boast the lack of. Tact springs within from an unwillingness to hurt feelings, and it is the mark of innate kindness that has no personal motive. Tact is no enemy to truth. It offers truth on a salver instead of throwing it in the face, that's all. Truth from Uncle Eben. "Don't imagine, son," remarked Uncle Eben, "dat you shows yoh smartness by bein' deceitful. One of de hardest things in de world is to tell nuffin' but de exact truth an' still be good company." Growing Old. It is ten p. m. They are seated in the parlor. "No," she says, bowing her head: "Pa says I am too young to become engaged." It is just 1:30 a. m. They are still seated in the parlor. Suddenly, from somewhere upstairs, a gruff voice shouts. "Henrietta, if that fellow waits a little longer you'll be old enough to accept his proposal!"—Woman's Home Companion. Lateon on Walking. Dr. Latson says: "A correct walk is the rarest accomplishment I can think of. Handsome faces are rare, good figures are much more rare; but as to gait and carriage, out of 500 we shall find 30 or 40 nandsome faces, and perhaps a dozen good figures. But certainly in that number we shall rarely find more than one or two people who walk properly." Matters Little, Anyway. "Conceding," said the professor, "although it isn't proved, that a soul weighs half an ounce, as tested by a pair of material scales, how much do you suppose your body would weigh on a pair of soul scales? Half a grain?" THE STATESMAN, DENVER, COLORADO. rr rr — DURANUO ITEMS.

TRS MOTHERS OF MEN. Responsibility That Is Thele Heritage am Earth The birthday of Lincoln is approach- ‘ng its centennial, for he was born ninety-five years ago of a wonderful mother, of whom the world knows, &ias, too little. Nency Hanks! I know not what furtive, naunting auggestiveness there {s in this name of piquant pride and girlish coquetry But whatever buoyant song her soul might have sung under happier skies that gentle soul was all too sensitive o the hard conditions of her environ- ment. She drooped, and the rosy cheeks grew wan, and the great soft eyes were troubled in their depths and the eager, questioning mind was numbed by the riddle of her life and the burden of {ts sorrows. If the wind laughed in the sun, it sobbed in the night. If the spirits of the forest whispered hope they sometimes shrieked despair. If the clouds, like water fowl, rested on the bosom o/ her woodland pools, they also hung like shadows above her brooding heart. And so the moaning of the wind and the shadows of the clouds and the boding spirits of the earth and sky, and the mystery, and pathos and tragedy of life passed intu her nature and became part of it, and int: the nature of Abraham, her son, sol’ heir to her tenderness, her wistful ness, her destiny. It has been said that in every grea: man there is something of the child and I would add: Yes, and of the woman. Napoleon was not great—he was monstrous. True greatness has in it a depth of tenderness and a we! spring of melancholy, through which there may bubble up betimes an iri fescent humor. Lincoln could cstch ‘the raintdw Colors of a foke even through the prism of his tears. A creat man is @ religious man. In his soul there Is @ mystery of love, tor vague, thank heaven, to limit by a theology. Lincoln's religion was 4& ereedless Christianity. His physique, his strength—lI!ke the strength of a gorilla—his physical at tributes were {nherited from his father, but his soul was given him oy his mother, who, dowered with no earthiy thing, gave all that she had of heaven—her motherhood, herself. “All that I am,” said Abraham Lin- coln, “I owe to my mother.” Now, Prof. Drummond in that great nook of his, called “The Ascent of Man,” bas taught us the holy sanction of that word—mother. He has re- vealed to us how all the forces of the universe, through countless ages and millenniums, have conspired and as- pired to produce this final, crowning miracle of God—the miracle of moth- erhood, Mother! Handmaid of God elect of heaven! Not even to an angel is vouchsafed the care of life new made; you, you only are deemed worthy of the charge! Not cherubim nor seraphim may nurse a human soul; a mother's heart cradles man’s frst and only innocence!—Henry D. Origin of “February.” Febreary derived its name from the word februare, to “expiate” or “purify,” in consequence of the Ro- man festival of expiation and purifi- cation, celebrated on the 15th of the month.

The energy of President Harper of the University of Chicago is both the despair and the admiration of those who know him. His driving power is extraordinary. Said a member of the faculty, “Dr. Harper knows all about the ‘eight-hour day.’ He puts in two of them every twenty-four hours.” For years Dr. Harper went to bed at midnight and rose at five. To a theo- logical student downcast because he could arrange no hour to meet the President for advanced work, Dr. Har- per said, “Are you free at five-thirty fn the morning?” “Yes,” was the startled answer. “Then come every day at thet hour’—and the arrange ment was concluded on that basis.— The World's Work.

There is no fresh air in the heart of Londoa, according to the concle sions of a recent investigator. He says: “No evidence of ozone was any- where apparent, except at Browns wood Park, in the northeast. It wee from the northeast quarter the wind was blowing and the air had lost ah trace of ozone before it had reache@¢ Hyde Park; at Bushey Park, althougd practically a country district, no nzone was present in the air, London haé not only abstracted the goodness out of the air that swept over it, but had edded to it the exhalations from the breath and bodies of thousands of an- inials.

Interesting facts as to the cost of main road maintenance in the county of Yorkshire, England, are sent by Consul Walter C. Hamm of Hull. The roads were well constructed originally and are well cared for now. It is a rare sight to see a rutty or muddy country road in the neighborhood. Most all of them are macadamized, well drained and kept in good repair. As a consequence one horse can draw a load which would require two or three horses over the usual country road in America. There are about 1,100 miles of road in the county, and the cost of the roads has increased from $734,000 in 1895 to $910,000 in 1906, and the cost per mile from $654 to $832 in the same period. There is a constant tendency to increase in the cost of maintenance, but this increase is, in part, accounted for by the construction of footpaths and the placing of granite "setts" to protect the roads from injury by trolley lines. HAD LARGE JOB ON HAND. Stork Almost Ready to Go Out of Business on One Job. Entering his humble home, the man was vastly startled to meet the stork coming out; and when he observed that the fabled fowl was sweating at every pore, as being under great stress, a consternation seized him. For he was a poor man, who had already much ado to make both ends meet. Indeed, his hair rose on end and his voice all but stuck in his jaws. "What are you doing here?" he made shift to gasp, by dint of great effort. "There's a pair of microbes in that pint of milk you bought last night, and I'm having to bring them 14,000,000,000 little ones every two hours," quoth the stork, not in the best of humor. "I declare I don't know what I should do if race suicide had not come in coincidently with the germ theory." And he hurried on, muttering under his breath, leaving the man much relieved, albeit not a little astonished. If the Pupils Have a Say. Chicago is to have a "model school," but the question is, model according to whom? If it is model according to its patrons, it will have 12 months vacation every year. Every store that I know of in America obliges its help to stand on their feet from morning until closing time. Behind each counter in my store is a chair. I want my employees when not busy to sit down and rest. As I walk through the different departments in my store my employees do not have to feel that they must brace up because the "boss" is coming around. My employees are doing right all the time because they know that I am doing right and using them as near right as I know how. My employees would far rather have me home than abroad. I guess that I am an easier fellow to work for than the manager, but he cannot be very severe with them, because I always tell him to use them just as I use him. I tell every man at the head of a department, "Be kind to the help under you. Do not speak to them in any other way than the way I speak to you. Handle your help so that they will respect you and so that they will regret to leave my employ."—Everybody's. BROUGHT JAY GOULD TO TIME. Woman Made Financier Pay for Her "Watermillions." While Jay Gould was superintending the building of the old Rutland & Washington railroad, between Rutland, Vt., and Eagle Bridge, N. Y., in the late summer of 1852, it became necessary to cross a large farm in the town of Castleton, belonging to Mra Ann Dineen, so a strip of her property was obtained. A fine patch of watermelons on the place was too strong a temptation for the one hundred or more men in the construction gang, and in a day or two the patch was melonless. patch of water as too strong a the hundred of FOR SALE. Mrs. Dineen complained to Gould, but he disclaimed any responsibility for the acts of the workmen and fused to recompense her for her loss. & REALTY CO., 913 21st St. By A. A. Waller. A day or two later Mr. Gould and one or two of his engineers were obtaining relief from the effects of the hot weather by taking a swim in the Castleton river, when suddenly Mrs. Dineed appeared on the bank. Gathering up all the clothes of the bathera the woman made a motion as though to throw them into the water and shouted: "Will yes pay me for thin water millions now. Mr. Gould?" The promoter's trousers contained a timepiece worth a large sum and other valuables which immersion would not have benefited, so he agreed to settle for the stolen fruit if she would go to his office the next day. The promise was satisfactory, and Mrs. Dineen retreated in triumph. "People that live in glass houses needn't have any fear nowadays,' said Uncle Allen Sparks. "There are plate glass insurance companies." There always remains a suspicion in the mind of the most devoted wife that perhaps she could have done better.—Atabison Globa. "I suppose you sent your boy to college in the hope he would make his mark?" "Partly that," answered Farmer Corntossel.

J.B Ford, put stand. = | PPP a The Home has received many en- thusiastic visitors, among whom were two Morman ministers from Canada, who were greatly surprised to find such an institution and spoke very en- couragingly of the awakening energy of our people. Miss Parson and mother of the Ho- tel Metropole called to see Ruth and expressed themselves as being per- fectly satisfied with Ruth’s condition. Anyone wishing to converse with her concerning Ruth will find her at the above-named hotel. Mrs, Pearson sent a load of things for the Home. Mrs. Waller sent a package of clothes. The Home received six callers dur- ing the week of Noy. 12th, the major- ity of whom said they did not find the Home as it had been represented, and were much pleased to find the chil- dren, the Home and all connected, a: though they were well kept. Mrs. Washington visited’ and brought a serviceable package 0. weuring apparel for the children. Mrs, James and Mrs, Williamson, from the Woman's Christian Alliance, called on Thursday, Noy, 22, and hac prayer and scripture service with us, after which Mrs, James gave a beauti- ful talk to the children. She gladly comes each Thursday on the same happy mission. Nov. 28th three members of the State Board of Charity Organization called, inspected our Home and left with many complimentary remarks. Mrs. Grant and Mrs. Sherwood sent things to the Home. On Dee. 4th a package of things was sent, by whom I failed to learn. Mrs. Morrison obtained a mission- ary basket, which she sent us for Thanksgiving. On Thanksgiving Day Mrs. L. Knight brought over two loaves of bread, one large roast of pork, one pound of butter, two turkeys, two quarts of cranberries, four glasses of jelly, one basket of onions, one large box of sweet and white potatoes mix- ed, one dozen cans of can goods. As we had one large turkey ready to serve when she came she partook of it and seemed to enjoy it. She was greatly pleased with the condition ot the Home and repeatedly gave words of encouragement which were grate- fully received. On Dee, 10th Miss Parson sent Ruth a small box of wearing apparel.

The proposition to establish a public school garden in every city, village and town in Massachusetts is a good one. Curiously enough, the country town seems to need it most--Boston Transcript. Profit of the Bank of England. In the 40 years between 1792 and 1832 there were outstanding notes of the Bank of England, presumed to have been lost or destroyed, amounting to £1,333,000 odd, every shilling of which was clear profit to the bank Life Made Up of Habits. Life is but a tissue of habits. Each good habit we weave in our teens means a better and happier life to its very end—and we cannot afford to waste an hour in setting the loom at work.—Amiel. Poetry in Machinery. "There is poetry in machinery," says an eastern writer. Of course there is, and it is coming out right along. Machine-made poetry is a most familiar object.—Kansas City Journal. Of Natural Fools. Their heads sometimes so little that there is no room for wit; sometimes so long that there is no wit for so much room.—Thomas Fuller. Pope's Trite Saying. "It is with narrow-souled people, as with narrow-necked bottles; the less they have in them the more noise they make in pouring it out."—Pope In Most Cases. Men sometimes fight for principle, but in most cases they hope there is going to be profit back of it. Monotony. Monotony. "A woman should always depend on her husband for advice," said the devoted wife. "Yes," answered the visitor, "but it does grow monotonous not to get any advice except to economize." Invented Eau de Cologne. The inventor of eau de cologne was an Italian, Giovanni Farina. Farina offered vainly to sell his recipe for 82,750 in 1903, but a few years ago it was sold by his heirs for 4200,000. The Common Things The sunshine and the gentle rain. The clear bird song that hails the mo- The meadow land which flowers stain The swaying banners of the corn. The grass that whispers to the breeze— What common, common things are these! The broad, blue mirror of the lake That smiles back at the sleeping sky The billows, too, that leap and break And fling their foamy jewels high; The silver clouds that one by one Toss back the lances of the sun. The stars that blaze as jewels blaze, And make the world old mystery. While they, on their appointed ways, Go spreading through eternity Across unfathomed seas of space On paths that we but dimly trace— All these are common—brook and bird, And rose of red, and meadow green; So common that they seem unheard, So common that they seem unseen, And yet there is no day or night But borrows all of their delight. No common thing is held apart From us, or pent with lock and key, But in the goodness of his heart They are all made for you and me It always seems God loves the best Things he makes the commonest. —St. Louis Globe-Democrat ```markdown ``` THE STATESMAN, DENVER, COLORADO. Where Beggsro Ride. "If wishes were horses beggars might ride," says the old saw, but in Persia beggars actually do ride, although they patronize the humble donkey instead of the more aristocratic brother. How they manage to obtain these useful animals, or even to exist themselves, passes European comprehension, but the fact remains that they do both. The Persian tramp, astride his donkey, often makes very long journeys—even as far as Meshed or Mecca, whence he returns with the proud title of "Hadji." Useful as the donkey is to his mendicant master, the latter usually treats him in a most brutal fashion, a length of chain being a frequent substitute for a whip when the unfortunate animal needs encouragement.—Wide World Magazine. Northwestern Editorial Courtesies. "We do not know what the Lord lets some people get hold of a newspaper for, anyway," is the way the Salem Capital-Poster puts it. And we have often thought the same thing, only in larger type, when reading and trying to understand the maundering rot in double-column doses of the Capital-Poster.—Irrigon (Ore.) Irrigator. Curative Effect of Salt. The curative effects of salt have never been shown as they should be. Sore and inflamed eyes are relieved by bathing with salt water. Sore throat yields to a gargle of the same. Consumption can be cured by the persistent use of half a teaspoonful of salt in a glass of water taken just before going to bed. Right Way to Treat Boy. Expect the best of a boy, and you will not be disappointed. Trust him, and he will not fail you. Be true, and he will meet you half way. Be firm and exacting but kind, and he will respect you. Give him an opportunity, let him grow, and he will stand by you. Sun Slowly Getting Hotter. An official of the naval observatory at Washington ventures the somewhat startling suggestion that the sun is still getting hotter. The process, however, is too slow to have any but a scientific interest for the present inhabitants of the earth. When Tired Eat Raisins. Ralsins, by the way, are now commended as a "pick-me-up between meals." One well-known London doctor affirms that a bunch of raisins eaten when fatigued is of more value than a glass of wine under such circumstances. Small Beginnings. It is a remarkable fact that some of the societies which have done most to regenerate the world have been cradled within the walls of city taverns in the darkest hours of our national life.—Thornton Hall, in the Sunday Strand. Germany's Population. The population of the German empire has now exceeded the 60,000,000 figure. It has doubled within seventy-two years. The 60,000,000 figure was reached in 1895. L. D.

City News At the meeting Monday night the Choral members expressed their deepest regrets for their co-worker, Mrs. Ada Crummer, during the recent bereavement for her sister. Tom Lewis, Fred Armstrong and Ed Gullion, who have been on an extended hunting trip, returned yesterday with oodles of game. Mr. Henry Owens, brother of Mrs. J. W. Crummer, arrived Monday afternoon after a long and wearisome ride, very much grieved over the death of his devoted sister. Mrs. Bragg of 2028 Downing avenue, who was in St. Joseph's hospital, died Wednesday night. Undertaker Gilmore is preparing the body for shipment to Kansas City. Mr. James Thompson returned to Ogden Tuesday morning, holding the best wishes for the people of Denver who were so tender and kind to his beloved wife during her last days. We are in receipt of a letter from Rev. Cole, who was called to Meridian, Miss., last week by the serious illness of his mother. He found her sitting up for the first time in three weeks. He will send us for publication some observations on the South in the near future. He says that one thing is to be remembered, that the South is still the South. Prof. Alzamon Ira Lucas addressed an audience at Howe hall Monday night in answer to Tillman and also covering some of the points he makes in his philosophy. He was listened to attentively and planted seeds that may bring forth abundant harvest. His work among negroes is in its infancy, but the wonderful growth among whites presages a great awakening among us also.

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. Denver, Colo., Nov. 12, 1907. Union Health and Accident Co., City. Dear Sirs:—I take the opportunity of expressing to you my gratitude for the unusual promptness exercised in the payment of my claim for fractured wrist. I filed proofs this morning and immediately received your check for $21.00. This is conclusive evidence that your claim department is managed in the interest of your members. Very truly yours, OSCAR RUBECK, 418 23rd St. Denver, Colo., Nov. 12, 1907. Union Health and Accident Co., City.

Appreciating the prompt and liberal attention extended me, I remain, Yours for greater progress. FRANK J. PROSHINSKA. Denver, Colo., Nov. 12, 1907. Union Health and Accident Co., City. Gentlemen:—Your check for $47.15 in payment for my claim for accident, has just been placed in my hands. Allow me to express my thanks for your prompt and satisfactory adjustment of the claim. I expected nothing less from men of your known promptness and unquestionable integrity. Success to the company. ROBT. JOHNSON, 2138 Steut St. Denver, Colo., Nov. 8, 1907. Gentlemen:—I am in receipt of the company's check for $21.05, being full payment for my claim for sickness.

Brown Wooley entertained at a birthday party Thursday evening at 2805 Arapahoe street in honor of the birthday of W. H. Wooley. The People's Presbyterian church will have a fair the last of the month and during it the Pleasant Hour club will give an entertainment on the 27th. Mrs. Sophronia Macrow has been quite ill for the past few days after her return from her late visit in Colorado Springs. She is on the mend at this writing. Miss Noah Findley sang "Dream of Paradise," which was so thoroughly appreciated by the audience Sunday at the Alliance that she was forced to respond to "Dreaming." Miss Grace Montgomery has one of her dear friends visiting her in the person of Miss Goldie Young of Leavenworth, Kans. Miss Young will make an extended stay with her friends. I would be pleased to serve 12 o'clock lunch to as many as nine high school children. I will call it a fair meal at two for 25 cents. The regular meal is 15 cents straight. Good lady cook. I would like to make arrangements with the parents. H. Brown, Southern Restaurant, 818 19th street. The artistic design in clay or plaster paris that received an honorable mention when Miss Gertrude Nichols, the modeler, was attending the Manual Training School is now the model from which the students make their drawings. Congratulations to Miss Nichols for her thorough work as to merit such consideration over all others. Let the good work go on. Dr. T. E. McClain, one of Denver's recent additions in the dental line, will make his debut before the Alliance Sunday. The doctor is a graduate of Meharry Dental College and the subject, "The Relation of the Divine and Civil Law," is so simple that no doubt many will participate in the discussion thereof. The popular dentist's paper will be one of the treats Sunday afternoon. The Cosmopolitan Cafe had a grand reopening Wednesday night at which time time Robert Carruth, who was associated with Jack Shelbun, assumed full management. The Colorado Trio discoursed music during the evening. A good crowd attended and admired the tastefully decorated dining room. Mr. Carruth is a chef par excellence and assures the best service possible. THE STATESMAN, DENVER, COLORADO. T. J. Riley, one of the Alliance's valiant supporters, was remembered by the Alliance with a beautiful bouquet of flowers, a token of cheer and respect from that august body. The following members of the Alliance have been appointed to arrange for a Whittier celebration on Dec. 21, 1907: Mrs. C. W. Buford, J. J. Manuel and George G. Ross, chairman. Harris' orchestra and Shorter church have been secured for that event, which promises to be one of the most enthusiastic and patriotic of this year. The spirit of abolition will prevail. In the death of Mrs. Stella Owens Thompson last Friday at the home of her sister, Mrs. Ada Crummer, the grim reaper took away one of the sweetest characters and most useful of our younger women. Nine years ago her health was poor and the profound sympathy that went out to her from everyone at that time has continued until her death. Since her marriage she has been making her home in Salt Lake though she spent some time here in the hope that it might benefit her. The funeral was held Sunday from Shorter church. She leaves a sister, brother and husband intimately related. Rev. Owens of Pueblo, an uncle, was present Sunday. The interment was at Fairmount cemetery. Rare and costly flowers were given in profusion by friends. A BOOSTER FROM COLORADO SPRINGS Colorado Springs, Colo., Nov. 9, '07. Commonwealth Life, Denver, Colo. Gentlemen:—I am just in receipt of your final payment for my recent accident. I received a total of $22.15 from you and must say that the lack of red tape and your promptness and liberality in paying me while I was disabled confirms me in the belief that the Commonwealth Life is the best insurance that I know of. I can certainly commend you cordially to everyone, and especially to my friends, to whom I shall write regarding the way you have treated me and many friends of mine. No one can make a mistake in carrying benefits with you. Wishing for you the greatest of success, I am. HENRY SMITH. Pastor Allen's Chapel, M. E., 429 N Royer. TO FRIENDS ANCEGRET ORDERS Denver, Colo., Nov. 14, 1907. Allow us to express our most grateful acknowledgements for your repeated kindness during the severe illness of our father, T. J. Riley, the many acts of kindness for which we can at present offer you only our best thanks. NAOMI MORRISON JOSEPHINE LEE. A. J. RILEY. ELIZABETH OWENS. DEBATE AT THE ALLIANCE. "Resolved that men of thought were more important to the world's progress than men of action" is the question of which Undertaker Roy Handy had the affirmative and Lawyer F. H. Bryant the negative and the Alliance sat as silent judges. The discussion developed a novel state of affairs, both of the disputants were correct, each from his point of view or premise. One would argue a man of thought with no action was handicapped. The other would retort a man of action without any definite thought or plan was powerless. The fact is, that thought is crystallized in action or action is only a form of thought. God thought light and there was light, trees, water, etc., and such were. As a man thinketh in his heart so he is. Thus the Creator, thought makes the created action and is greater than the created. The negative's position was that the acts today benefit mankind more than theories; that one must be benefited and learn by the doing of the act; that merely sounds without words were dead sounds, and words without acts were nothing; that greatness in a man only lies in what he makes possible for others. After telling many illustrative stories, making puns and the like, the affirmative made the point on the speaker by telling him as he stood before the audience he thought before he spoke. A general good time intellectually was had, many new members were so desirous of joining that they asked the method by which a membership could be attained. Many old ones rejoined and were reinstated. The musical program was exceptionally good. The trombone solo by Mr. Emmet Mason showed his sincerity by his faultless presentation. Mrs. E. L. Faulkner, with her rare ability in technique and her soul-stirring manipulation on the piano, in her solo, gave her the enviable reputation of an excellent pianist. Mrs. Faulkner has rare musical ability and taste, doubtless because of her matchless ability, demonstrated by her long period of music teaching. It was thought for a while that the Alliance would return to the hall on 1712 Curtis street but after a brief consideration decided to remain where it was. THE BEST COMPANY.

The First Glovemaker. Cals te. Als There is a growing demand at luc- tative 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 Nor- mal and Industrial Institute is so far in excess of the supply that we are offering special inducements to gradu- ates of other schools, and persons suf- ficiently advanced in the academic branches to come here and pursue the courses in agriculture, including prac- tical farm work, dairying, livestock Taising, etc. An oportunity will be given a few earnest young men to Work out all of their board while tak- ing a course. Those interested can secure full in- formation by addressing BOOKER T. WASHINGTON, Principal, NOTIFY US AY ONCE.

Into a Great bow! of sweetened tea, a statue of the god is placed; women bring their offerings, then taking up some of the tea with a ladle, pour it over the defenseless head of the placid god.

When we first began our wonderful work of growing all kinds, all qual- ities, 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 possibile; but we have grown the hair for hundreds, rapidly achieving success. The proof ef the value of our work is that we are be- ‘ing 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).

A few days ago a Chinese restaurant was opened on Arapahoe street among the colored businesses operating there. The proprietors have no friends among the colored people of the city, have no past reputation to commend them, give a service similar to colored restaurants, excepting a few foreign dishes, yet are able to command our trade at once in an astonishing degree. It is a shame that the negro race contains individuals so lost to all sense of fairness as to desert at the earliest possible moment their own whom they know for the other fellow no matter who he may be. Division along the lines of race is not to be encouraged, but it is common sense that we should patronize our own men when we have a full and perfect knowledge of what we can do, but must accept the service of others on faith. Add to this fact that patronage of colored restaurants and in fact of all colored businesses is the one way to demonstrate our possibilities, and the utter lack of policy in sacrificing our own businesses in the shameless manner now practiced, is the harder to understand. Suspicion of each other and dissension was taught to us in slavery days by our masters, but we ourselves continue to display our disgusting unreasonableness without outside encouragement. OLD FACE IN NEW PLACE. W. H. Duncan, who is president of the Western Negro Press Association, is now doing the editorial work on the Despatch, which is a new publication in Colorado Springs. Mr. Duncan was associated with the earliest publications in "Little Lunnon" and his versatility and experience will mean much to the new venture. Besides his newspaper career, Mr. Duncan has long been actively engaged in politics and his knowledge of men and measures assures the public that --- PAGE & MS. $1.00 Three months.....

"The wasp is a disputatious creature, to be sure," observed the professor, "but it always carries its point." "You're just a poem, Bess," I said And I was right, you see. I knew the way she tossed her head She was a verse to me. How One Girl Found a Husband. All pretty girls traveling are not advised to follow the example set by the heroine of this true story. Last week Miss Droop of Washington was married to a young merchant of Bremen after he had journeyed far to find the lady of his love. Two years ago Miss Droop, with friends, was travelling from Bremen to Berlin when a handsome man entered the car. He proceeded to read a German paper. She said to another girl: "How fine looking he is. I wouldn't mind being married to a German if I could get such a handsome one." She spoke in English, and the young man sat with a stolid countenance, as if he couldn't understand a word. Really, he knew English thoroughly. The marriage is the sequel. W. P. Northrup, in the Medical Record, says that civilized man has learned how to eat and drink and how to wash, but he has not yet learned how to ventilate. The author depicts the unhygienic conditions existing in most places of public assemblage, owing to the lack of fresh air, and says that the need for reform in this regard is also great in private dwellings. The curse of modern living is overworking, overheating and lack of ventilation, not to mention worry and hasty eating. The suggestion is made of utilizing the roofs of dwelling houses as sources of fresh air, by constructing roof gardens. --- Air de Luxe.

WARD, Pastor. ALBUQUERQUE NEWS. Mr. and Mrs. Alexander are new arrivals from Houston, Texas. W. T. Thornton, the cleaner, has added a clothes pressing and repairing establishment to his growing business. Mrs. Julia Brown and daughter, Mrs. Stewart, recently of Topeka, left for Los Angeles, Cal., last week. Mrs. John Cleveland left for Oakland, Cal., last Saturday evening, where she will be joined by her husband. Thomas Thompson, who has been very ill at St. Joseph's hospital for a week, died Saturday evening. Funeral services were held at Barden's undertaking establishment, Rev. M. Jones officiating. A whist club was organized last Thursday evening at the residence of Mrs. Chas. Fields. A large number were present. John Linsey, formerly a clerk in the White House, died at the home of W. T. Thornton. Mr. Linsey came to Albuquerque from Salt Lake City, Utah, some two or three months ago, in search of health. The remains were taken to Washington, D. C., by a sister of the deceased, who reached the city the night before his death. We are reliably informed that through O. A. Matson, the recent manager of the Elks' opera house, that negroes are being jim-crowed to a considerable extent, which is making the opera house an undesirable place. We would prefer seeing the negro spending his money for something more profitable than giving it to people who do not appreciate their patronage. Buy more homes. Go into business with that money you spend with ungrateful people and in the meantime don't lose sight of the men who seek to bring about such conditions. Knock them whenever you get a chance. Mr. O. A. Matson runs a stationery store in our city and it is our duty to absolutely boycott such houses and if ever they or their friends whom they may be supporting run for a public office it is our duty to knife them at the polls whether they are on a Republican or a Democratic ticket, for they are our enemies. Look through the columns of The Statesman to keep informed on these matters. THE STATESMAN. DENVER. DOG TAKEES PRIDE IN CLOTHES Augusta Canine Seamingly Unhappy When Without Them. There is a dog in Augusta, says the Augusta Chronicle, who dresses just like a man, wearing the regulation coat, vest, collar and cravat, and is very pround of his apparel, being seemingly very much distressed whenever his busy master does not have time to rig him up in his clothes. If there are any who are "from Missouri," they may be satisfied by calling at a blacksmith shop on Ellis street, near the city hall, where they can be introduced to him by his master, George Bailey, a negro employee of the smithy. He wears them with a conscious dignity, and is hugely delighted when any one stops to notice his attire and comment thereon. He will gaze intently at each speaker and joyously wag his tail when complimented upon his appearance. It is not known what whim induced the blacksmith to clothe his canine pet "in all points like as we are." But he certainly devised the dog's dress most ingeniously. No detail is wanting. The cut of his coat is after the latest mode—has pockets, too—the collar is nicely laundered and the cravat is tied with correct smartness. The first thing in the morning the dog must be properly dressed, or else he whines piteously. After he has been clothed according to his usual custom his joy knows no bounds, and he displays his pleasure with much barking and wagging of his tail. He has the utmost contempt for the host of naked dogs who roam about the streets and absolutely refuses to associate with them, manifesting a spirit of outraged indignation at their immodesty. King Values Punctuality All men agree in the abstract that "punctuality is the soul of business," but few act up to the maxim with the strictness of the king of the Belgians Wherever or however he may travel, whether the visit be of business, please or ceremony, he is punctual, not only to the hour, but to the minute it might almost be said to the second. And yet his majesty is never seen to consult a watch. But his familiars know that his habit of passing his hand along his flowing beard is only a device for glancing at a small watch which he wears fastened to his wrist. Hotty Green's Views. Mrs. Hetty Green has no particular religious views. She was bred a Quaker, but she never goes to any kind of a church. "Indeed," she said quaintly on a recent occasion. "I once held mortgages on twenty-eight different churches. I am a firm believer in simplicity. That is why so many people believe me moon, when the fact is I merely preter lot to be extravagant." Typhoid Fever Checked. In India alone the losses to the British army from typhoid fever amount to half a battalion a year. The latest reports furnish proof that the practice of anti-typhoid inoculations in the army has resulted in a substantial reduction in the incidence and death rate of enteric fever among the inoculated.
