The Masons' East Turner Hall. Big Prizes Free Dec. 26 FRANKLIN'S PAPER THE STATESMAN NINETEENTH YEAR DENVER, COLORADO, FRIDAY DECEMBER 20, 1907 FIVE CENTS A COUNT REGISTER OF THE TREASURY Men. W. T. Vernon one of our greatest Men will be in Denver Jan. 23, Let us Meet the Occasion Announcement is made that the West, including Denver, Colorado Springs and Pueblo, are soon to be visited by Prof. W. T. Vernon, the brilliant Kansan who is now filling the office of Register of the Treasury. He is also president of Western University, the college which is situated at Quindaro, Kan., under the He will speak in this city at a date yet to be made known. He arrives in Colorado January 23, visits the three leading cities, and leaves on the 28th. TRUE REFORMERS ASSIST Rev. C. W. Holmes preached a sermon to the True Reformers Sunday night. His text was "Be Ye Faithful Until Death and I Shall Give You a Crown of Life," and after discussing the different phases of "faithfulness" in the various vicissitudes of this life, he forcibly illustrated the reward, the crown of life. Then Rev. Bruce, the evangelist, shortly but effectively showed the wonderful "power" they must possess as "true reformers" and closed by appealing to them to show their strength and power kneeling at the altar to offer up prayer for the sinners. This request was readily complied with and every true reformer present came forth and bowed a prayer. The singular event was in that grand body not a sinner was present. Chief Cash valiantly defended the order in a short and brilliant speech, as he set forth its object, aims and accomplishments. A great time was experienced and many Christians pledged themselves to assist in the revival. CAMPBELL HAS GLORIOUS MEETING. Campbell, A. M. E. church. Owing to the severe throat trouble of Rev. A. M. Ward, Rev. Bruce, the evangelist, consented to occupy the pulpit in his stead. Being full of fire, force and persuasion, the crowde church easily became enthusiastically spiritual. As the church rocked, old men shouted, women nodded their heads to and fro, tapping the floor with their toes at the same time, while the young smiled their happiness of spiritual glee. SHORTER A. M. E. CHURCH SUNDAY SERVICES. The pastor will preach at 11 a. m. Class meeting at 12:30 p. m. Sunday school at 1 p. m.

WARD. Pastor. ```markdown ``` DEPARTURE OF After serving as the pastor of Central Baptist church for nearly three years, Rev. Chas. D. Douglas has accepted a charge in Cincinnati and will leave for his new home next week. We well remember the time of his coming. Central church is an ideal congregation of workers, but through one from its place till remor was fine that it would lose its beautiful property at Twenty-fourth and California. The call of Rev. Douglas from Galesburg in less than three years has wiped out a mortgage of $3,000 and floating debt of some hundreds more. Membership has raised from 278 to 410, making it easily the second largest Baptist congregation in the West. At the same time extensive improvements have been made on the church building and interest in the spiritual work has been maintained. The saving of a church is of public benefit and in this sense apart from his public endeavors outside of his church, Rev. Douglas has been a benefactor of Denver and we are sorry to lose him. Mere pulpit oratory does not beget success in a minister, nor does mere good living, but these two combined with a knowledge of men make him powerful and our departing friend has been unusually efficient, proving his excellence in these particulars beyond doubt. In his wife, Mrs. Rev. Douglas is most fortunate. Mrs. Douglas has been a splendid worker. Her Pastor's Aid Society has made a mark among church societies. He is a graduate of the State University of Louisville and a Doctor of Divinity from Extein Norton University of Kane Springs, Ky. Rev. Beckham, formerly of Spokane, has been called as his successor and we welcome him and hope for him a continuation of the good feeling and personal interest that speeds the parting guest. WESTERN WOMAN WING SERIAL SUCCESS IN EAST. Mrs. T. D. Perkine, Who Went East to Complete a Course of Lectures On the Hair, Overwhelmed With Business. Two months ago Mrs. T. D. Perkins, who is a specialist in the care of the scalp and the beautifying and growth of the hair, went to Philadelphia to complete the course she began three years ago under skilled German specialists. Since going to Philadelphia, hundreds who knew her on a former visit and remembered how changed her long luxuriant tresses are now from the short hair she had then, advertised her so much that she was called upon to give lectures in the leading churches there and had to turn away hundreds who sought her advice and help. She is now gone on to New York en route home. She will reach here this week and her old customers are privileged to go see her at once. Two thousand persons will take treatments from her by mail as a result of her trip. All the many features of past grand successes with these new ones will be crowd pleasers. People who have gone to nothing this month are planning to be out on the 26th, so as usual look for your friends on that date and find them at East Turner hall. THE STATESMAN, DENVER, COLORADO.

George Dosza was a Szekler, or peasant of Szekelfyfold, a district of Hungary. He was a quiet, law-abiding man, notable only for his great strength and tall stature. One day, however, an Austrian noble thought fit to decoy away from her father's house Dosza's only daughter, a maiden of 14. The distracted parent sought the abductor far and near, but, failing to find him, journeyed to Vienna and laid his case before the emperor. The latter only laughed. Whereupon the peasant returned to his own village and pasted upon the door of his little cabin a formal declaration of war against his sovereign. A month later he was marching on Vienna at the head of a huge, but undisciplined and ill-equipped army. At first the luck was all on his side. He defeated the regular troops in a number of pitched battles, carried by assault several large and strongly fortified towns and was actually within sight of the capital, whence the emperor had already fled, when he was betrayed into ambush through the treachery of a guide. The misfortune constituted the beginning of the end. The bulk of his followers fell away from him and were hunted through the mountains and woods like wild beasts. Altogether, it is said, that over 150,000 of them were put to the sword. The "Jack Cade of Hungary," having been taken prisoner, was seated on an iron throne, beneath which a huge fire had previously been kindled, crowned with a red-hot iron crown, and his flesh torn from his bones with red-hot pincers.—Exchanga. Most Wasteful of Cooks. To live to waste seems an unwritten maxim of English life. Our cooking, the cooking of our working and agricultural classes, is about the most wasteful cookery on earth. The French peasant will live, and live well, on what we discard. It is said than one hundred millions sterling a year are added to the national wealth of France by the saving-habits of her people.—C. B. Fry's Magazine. Doing It Up. "This bill is too high," said the customer. "Too high?" ejaculated the laundryman. "That's what I said; too high." But, man, do you know how long it takes to do up a shirt?" "Why, about four washings." Name the individual The man who assumes that he knows all there is to know about everything, and that nobody else knows much about anything, is a nuisance unless he keeps the opinion to himself.—Nashville American. Nothing So Difficult. Men like a sympathetic manner in women better than anything, but it is one of the most difficult qualities on earth to acquire, for nowadays we all want to talk about ourselves.—"Violet," in Vanity Fair.

Dr. Woodrow Wilson of Princeton was talking with some young men about cheating in examinations. "Aside from moral grounds," Dr Wilson said, "cheating is bad on material grounds. The cheat is very apt you know, to be found out. "In Virginia, in my boyhood, there was a case of cheating that had a disastrous ending. "An elderly minister appeared before a board to be examined for some post or other. The examination was public, and the first branch to be taken up was Latin. "What is the Latin for goose?" the examiner said. "And the poor old minister at the start was stumped. He could not remember. It was pitiful to see him, and a young man seated near could not resist helping him out. "Anser,' whispered the young man. "But the minister continued silent, rolling his eyes, racking his brain. "'Anser,' whispered the young man in a louder tone. "The minister now turned his head and looked at hisprompter oddly. "'Poor old chap! He almost heard. He wants me to try again,' the young man thought, and, louder than ever, he repeated: "'Anser.' "At this the minister turned and shook his forefinger at the youth. "'Answer yourself, you young jackanapes,' he shouted." Leading Up to It "I wish you would look at this watch and see what's the matter with it," the man said, handing it over. The jeweler examined it. "I can't see anything wrong," he said. "What seems to be the trouble?" "It has lost nearly a minute in the last three months." "That isn't worth making a fuss over." "I didn't know but one of the jewels might have broken, or something." "None of 'em dropped out?" "No, they're all right." "It isn't full jeweled, anyhow, is it?" "Yes, it's full jeweled." "I've been suspecting lately that the case is only washed." "You're wrong. It's solid gold." "But it isn't a first class make, is it?" "Yes, there's nothing better in the market." "I'm glad to hear you say so. Perhaps you wouldn't mind letting me have a fifty on it?"—Chicago Tribune Flower Furnishes Blacking. An Australian flower of the hibiscus specie is often used as blacking, the juice squeezed from four blossome giving enough liquid to coat a shoe with a fine luster. Tree Furnishes Water Supply. A species of tree is found growing on an island off the coast of Africa, the condensing power of the leaves of which furnishes the sole water supply of the island. Handkerchiefs Made in 1743. The first pocket hadnkerchiefs utilised in the manner they are to-day were manufactured at Paisley in 1762. THE STATESMAN. DENVER. COLORADO. Ten Thousand Years Ago, but Landlord Remembered It. "We had an old hotel keeper in one of our Kansas towns who was a man of many quaint theories," said Mr. Joseph Tomlinson, a lawyer of Independence, Kan. "One of his odd conceits was that all human beings will come back to earth in exactly 10,000 years, and that they will duplicate in their reappearance every act and word of their prior existence. This was his pet hobby, and the old man would expound it to every guest. On one occasion a couple of strangers whom he had entertained over night and who had listened to his 10,000 year formula, when starting away in the morning, owned up that they were dead broke and could not pay, but one of them remarked that it did not matter, for at the end of a hundred centuries they would call that way again, and as he would be keeping the same house they would cancel their indebtedness. "No, you won't get off with that dodge," spoke up the landlord. "I am onto you sharpers. You are the same pair of swindlers that beat me out of a hotel bill 10,000 years ago, and you can't work that racket on me again."—Washington Post. THE WOMAN WHO LACKS GRACE Has Missed Useful Friend and Powerful Benefactor, Says Writer. It is a greater drawback to woman to lack graciousness than it is for a man, as far as society is concerned, for it is in the daily little matters of social life that it is most felt and the most missed. It is not, however, only in her own house and her place as the hostess that lack of graciousness in speech and manner is a drawback, says the Philadelphia Inquirer. Wherever her lot may be cast, and among whatever people—whether she is placed in a subordinate position or is at the head of affairs, whether she is rich or poor, an idler or a worker, at the beginning of life's journey or well on the upward road, it is the same. If she lacks this gift she has missed a useful friend and powerful benefactor. Without it she certainly may get on, but with it she is almost sure to do so, and at the same time will gain friends and win affection. --- Busy Sheffield.

COLORADO. Digging For Fish. The natives of certain parts of India are in the habit every year, in the summer, of digging the dry river banks for fish, which they dig out by hundreds, just as they would potatoes. The mud lumps are broken open, and the fish, perhaps eight or ten inches long, will be found alive, and often frisky, as if just removed from their supposedly native element, the water. Traffic on European Rivers. A European river 40 feet wide handles as much freight as an ordinary American railroad, while the Rhine carries more business to a block than half the Hudson river. Splendid tugboats, fine barges and handsome swift steamers do the work, with anchored chain boats to pull the big loads up the rapids. Wrecking Old Ships. Norwegians have a primitive way of breaking up old, worn out wooden ships. They take them to exposed, rocky parts of the coast, and, after anchoring them, leave the breakers of the next storm to smash them to pieces. After the storm the floating fragments are picked up and sold for fire wood. Useful Hint. Some good samaritan of a dentist once told his patient that a pinch of baking powder in a cup of water, used as a mouth wash just before going to the dentist, would make the teeth much less sensitive. It sounds almost too easy, but anything that will mitigate the agonies that go with the dentist's chair is worth while testing. Mahogany Floors. Oak floors can be stained mahogany quite as well as softer woods. The expense of oak floors is so much greater that they are usually left in oak finish, cheaper woods being used for dark stains. Birch takes a mahogany stain well and is often used where a mahogany finish is desired. Blessing of Good Temper. Good temper is fruitful in happy families, in fair vista, in hopes and plans of pleasure. Good temper is to the pleasures of man what imagination is to the fine arts—delights in them, loves, multiplies, creates them. Joubert. An Optimistic Thought. When a jealous man who doesn't amount to anything shoots somebody who doesn't amount to anything for being too attentive to a woman who doesn't amount to anything, why should anybody who does amount to anything get excited about it?—Judge Flower Furnishes Blacking. An Australian flower of the hibiscus specie is often used as blacking, the juice squeezed from four blossome giving enough liquid to coat a shoe with a fine luster. Tree Furnishes Water Supply. A species of tree is found growing on an island off the coast of Africa, the condensing power of the leaves of which furnishes the sole water supply of the island. Handkerchiefs Made in 1743. The first pocket hadnakerchiefs utilized in the manner they are to-day were manufactured at Paisley in 1743. GEO. A.

Professed politicians who have produced public office to an exact science find the independent voter a sad stumbling block—a fact which is amusingly disclosed by a story found in the recent life of the late George Monro Grant, the eminent Canadian educator and and clergyman, says the Youth's Companion. Toward the end of Sir John Macdonald's life he and Principal Grant, then the head of Queen's college, met at dinner at the house of the premier's brother-in-law, Prof. Williamson. "How I wish," the premier said to the principal, "that you would be a steady friend of mine." "My dear Sir John," the principal replied, "I have always supported you when you were right." The premier's eyes twinkled, and he laid his hand upon the shoulder of the principal. "My dear man," said he, "I have no use for that species of friendship!" Billiard Tables Are Barred. There are still heads of old and wealthy Scottish families who would not on any account allow a billiard table to be placed in their houses. Among these may be mentioned Lord Mansfield. Though a good sportman and devoted to country pursuits, especially curling, he will not have a billiard room fitted up in his magnificent old mansion. Scene Palace, Perthshire. Boy Defines Plow. The head master of a school is Ancoats, the slum quarter of Manchester, England, told an audience that the Ancoats lad was essentially a stay-at-home and his knowledge of the country was nebulous. A plow, according to one boy, was "a thing for flattening the ground, it cut the grass short, and was like a knife or cart wheels." ALBUQUERQUE NEWS. Green Watson is slowly recovering from a very sick spell, but his mother, Mrs. 'T. Watson, remains very sick. Monica Houston, the girl wife who shocked the whole community a few months ago by her unwarranted action in marrying an aged white man has been granted a divorce. The hasty action of the court in this matter meets with the approval of a generous public. W. P. Crump, a successful business man of Phoenix, Ariz., arrived in the city a few days ago with a fine car load of naval oranges, the best that has ever entered the city. The oranges are being sold rapidly to our leading merchants. The Whist club was nicely entertained last Thursday at the residence of Mr. and Mrs. Chas. N. Payne on North Arno street.

All were glad to see him once more. C. P. Williams and wife left for El Paso last week. They expect to reside there in the future. Mrs. Geo. Ross, who conducted the Forest rooming house, sold out and left last week for Phoenix, Ariz., where she will join her husband, who is in the employ of the Santa Fe company. J. R.

But in doing so they make long apologies to the deity, explaining that they themselves would willingly make the customary sacrifices, but are prevented by the British government, on whose head they pray that any anger at their neglect of duty may be visited. Art Works Bring Good Prices. At the recent sale of the Paul Meurice collection in Paris a terra cotta group by Clodion, 30 centimeters high, representing a nymph with child offering flowers, was sold for $11,800. A terra cotta bas-relief by Clodion went for $2,500. A Gobelin tapestry of the time of Louis XVI., representing the month of May and belonging to a famous series designed by Lucas, brought $12,800. Derivation of "Finance." Many words of most august sound prove to be of quite commonplace ancestry when traced to their origins. "Finance" is really only "settling up." Literally, it is just "ending," and was formerly used in that very simple sense in the English language. Then it came to signify settling up with a creditor, and acquired the special sense of ransom. Thought, Sight, Hearing, Touch. Dr. Symes Thompson says the length of time taken in communicating by touch is one-seventh of a second before there is a consciousness of the touch. When a sound is heard the interval is one-sixth of a second; when an object is seen the interval is one-fifth of a second; in the case of a thought it is one-fortieth of a second. About Horses. Horses, under natural conditions, sleep much less than men and spend far more time every day in eating. There is little nourishment in grass, in proportion to its bulk, and the horse is forced to give so much time to eating that it would be ruinous to human industry if like conditions existed among men. Trade in Mohair. Mohair is likely to become an important product in the United States. At present, however, there are probably not more than 1,000,000 pounds of the substance grown here. It comes from the back of the Angora goat, three or four pounds being secured from each animal. The price varies from 25 cents to $1.25 a pound. Strange Incantations. When the Sakais of the Malay peninsula dance they repeat over the names of the mountains, rivers, trees and other natural objects with which they are familiar. The dance probably is an incantation to the spirits of the forests and hills. The First Eclipse. Babylonian inscriptions have revealed the earliest lunar eclipse of which we have any record. Its date is B. C. 1063. The record is proving of great service to astronomers in checking some of the data relating to the moon's orbit. THE STATESMAN, DENVER, COLORAD The two most expensive Sable coats in the world are worn by the empress of Russia and Queen Maud of Norway. The empress' coat is made from pure sables, the best which could be obtained in Europe, and is valued by an expert in furs at something between $150,000 and $400,000, while that which Queen Maud wears would be worth nearly half as much. The manager of a London firm said that within the last two years the price of sable had increased by 75 per cent., and was still going up. "The price is practically prohibitive," he said, "and we have to find a substitute in top Russian sable, smart sets of which cost as much as $1,000. If the same were made in real sable the price would be about $7,500 or more. "There is as much gambling in sables as there is on the stock exchange. The furriers have all sold out, and the demand is still great People are now beginning to pass tables down as heirlooms—and valuable they are, too, at $450 a skin." WAS WILLING TO PAY. Judge Lawrence Evidently Appreciate His Own Importance. During his early days as a public speaker, and while he was yet judge of a dist court, Congressman George P. Lawrence was invited to make one of his first public addresses before a the body—the board of trade and related guests. The event was one which brought together all of the prin pal business and professional men of the section, and plates were $4 each. On the night of the banquet the judge appeared at the door, and the ticket seller, not noticing who it was that tendered a $2 bill for a ticket, handed Mr. Lawrence one, and pocketed the money. Then he recognized him and said, with an apology, that it was not necessary for him to pay to enter. The judge threw out his chest and remarked with dignity: "I will have you understand sir, that I am willing to pay $2 any time to hear Judge Lawrence speak." And he didn't take back his money. Blessing of Forgiveness. If some one has gravely offended you and has called to your mind the demons of sadness and of hatred—what greater harm may be done to a mind?—may God permit that you may render services to the one who offended you; then you will feel your heart rise to a height which will render forgiveness easy.—Frederika Bremer. e Teacher Declined. ear pupil was absent from day last week. The next day she appeared at school and handed the teacher a note explaining her absence, written by her mother.

Considered by Them as Permanent Spiritual Relation. o The relation of a Hindoo husband to his wife is not like a contract sanctioned by the court of justice, but it is a permanent spiritual relation which binds two souls together. A wife is regarded, therefore, as a true helpmate in the spiritual progress of the soul life of her husband, while a faithful husband is considered to be the greatest blessing in the earthly and spiritual career of his wife. When she becomes a mother she represents divine motherhood and holds a unique position in the household. A Hindoo mother is actually worshiped as a living goddess by her children. The children are taught to obey their parents implicitly and to serve them like earthly deities as long as they live. To support the parents in their old age, to look after their welfare and to fulfill their desires, are the duties of children in every Hindoo household. But a mother is considered to be "greater than a thousand fathers." French Fond of Vegetables. Vegetables are great features in French households, and neither potatoes, beans, peas nor cauliflowers are ever served plainly boiled. Cauliflower cut into small pieces and served with a rich bechamel sauce is a favorite dish, and potatoes and carrots cut in rounds are often cooked in the same way, while beans and peas are greatly improved by the addition of a little butter, salt and pepper. They stew pears to perfection, whole, in syrup, pooled and with the stalks left on. After they are thoroughly cooked they are put on a sieve to dry and cool, and the syrup in cooked a little more, a little red wine being added and sometimes lemon peel to flavor it. For the Amateur Photographer. "Grain" is the enemy of the photographer who interests himself in copying. The best means of obviating its appearance is to "light" the picture evenly, but this not being always possible, expedients are necessary. One is to cover the space between the picture and lens with tissuepaper; another (if the picture is unmounted), to molsten the print and press it into contact with a sheet of glass, while frequently the application of encaustic paste will reduce in a very marked degree the "grainy" appearance of the print.—London Answers. District Given Over to Lawyers. Chancery Lane, London, is occupied almost entirely by lawyers and the tradesmen who cater to their needs. During the "long vacation" there is hardly any traffic upon it. Rice Staple Korean Food In Korea breakfast, dinner and supper are always the same, the staple being rice. The cultivation of their rice fields takes up most of the time of most Koreans. Can Strive to Do Right. Every one of us may do the wrong thing every day of our lives, yet none the less should we get up each morning determined to do the right. Her Case Hopeless. The woman who is so embittered that she is uninteresting to herself can never hope to be beautiful or interesting to others. THE STATESMAN, DENVER, COLORADO. Sentiment in a Court-Martial. A court-martial was held the other day at Chalons-sur-Marne on a youthful deserter. The prisoner's father, a railway clerk in Paris, asked to speak for him. Entering the courtroom, the father saluted the judges in military fashion. He made a speech urging the youth of his son, the disgrace that a long sentence would inflict upon the family—its long record of self-sacrifice and honor—and he alluded to his own military service, and finally undertook to be responsible for his son for the next four years. The court listened with deference and then sentenced the son, who was liable to death, to three months' imprisonment.—Paris Matin. Reward of Politeness. The Autocrat of the Breakfast Table says that many persons appear to think that manners mean continual self-sacrifice; that the well mannered individual is a pleasant person who is willing to live solely for the benefit of others, to his own obliteration. On the contrary, quite, Lord Chesterfield wrote for a past generation, yet the truth of what he said of politeness is the same always. "There is really nothing so inexpensive or that reaps such a reward. Good manners mean an appeal to all you meet for their better consideration. It is generally bestowed liberally." Undone by Love of Classics. It is not many months since a love of classics proved a check in the career of a burglar in the west end of London. The owner of a flat near Piccadilly, returning home after midnight, was astonished to see a man placidly occupying his favorite seat and reading one of his books. When he was asked what he was doing there, the startled intruder, seeing that he was caught, frankly confessed that he had "come to steal, but had remained to read"; and he handed to captor the volume—Horace's works—which he had found so seductive. What a Wife Should Be. In a recent competition as to who could offer the most novel list of qualities desirable in a wife one contestant offered a catalogue of virtues in which only the letter X was found to be lacking. According to these requirements a wife should be amiable, beautiful, chaste, dignified, entrancing fair, gentle, handsome, intelligent, joyous, kind, loving, musical, nice, obedient, pretty, quiet, rich, sedate, talent ed, upright, virtuous, witty, young and serious.

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. Denver, Colo., Dec. 12, 1907. The Union Health & Accident Co. City: Gentlemen—I acknowledge receipt of your check for $5.75, being in full payment of recent claim for sickness.

Never has there been such freedom of action, buoyancy of good feeling existing among the different members, and the great number of membership present at any election heretofore as was at the literary Tuesday night. While it was a friendly contest, each member was alive to get his or her candidate elected and great interest and enthusiasm was manifested. A stronger set of officers could not have been secured than the present electives. The peculiar feature of the election was that all denominal church lines were thrown to the winds and Methodists, Baptists, Episcopalians and Presbyterians were suggested as candidates. After President Porter surveyed the history of the society in which he pointed out the perils and dangers by which the society might be destroyed, and stating the great increase of membership over last year, the activity of the members and the interest of the community in general toward this public lever of enlightenment, he eloquently and earnestly appealed to the membership to make this administration the best ever known. A rousing vote of thanks was personally given the retiring administration, including the Program, Executive and Finance committees, for their faithfulness, their labor and brains used to make the society such a grand reputation as a success as she now holds. There being no meeting next Tuesday night, the installation of the new officers takes place Dec. 31st. The following were the lucky candidates: Raymond Clark, president; Miss Geraldine Troutman, vice-president; Miss Pathenia Lyons, secretary; Miss Elsie Von Dickershon, assistant secretary; Miss Gertrude Nichols, critic; Mrs. Leona Barbee, journalist; Mrs. Maude Savage, treasurer, and Messrs. C. A. Tasker and Ray Clark, sergeant-at-arms; Miss Eva Frazier, second vice-president. The Alliance is keeping up with her record of good programs, as was evidenced by all who attended and heard Lawyer F. H. Bryant in his original poem, "A Lincoln and the Lord," also who heard Little Bessie Troutman sing, as she put her little, pathetic soul in the song, "Is It Very Far To Heaven?" Her applause was deafening. Sunday, the orator of the occasion will tell you know Whittier influenced the Massachusetts legislature, while twice a member of it, to espouse anti-slavery measures; how he assisted in the election of Boutwell as governor and Sumner as senator, and what a noble poet and politician as a national delegate to the Anti-Slavery Convention, before which he had been twice mobbed. These interesting facts and others will be told you. Come early for a good seat. All the ministers have been invited. A HIT MADE BY It is no common compliment for an author of verse to have his work sought after and purchased by people of distinction in social and intellectual lines. Yet such is the distinction of Mrs. Lillie L. Smith, the author of Out of the Depths." The students of Miss Walcott's school have purchased a dozen copies this week. This says nothing of the sale among other people. Mrs. Smith bids fair to exhaust her first edition in short order.

Fallings, 1919 Clarkson street. New Year's night. E. GOENS, Pres. E. WALDON. Sec. --- Are You Left-Eyed? "Left-eyed people simply own the town these days," said an oculist. "If the prominence and importance of that aptle continues to increase we shall one day be a left-eyed race. In more than half the patients I treat the left eye is already considerable larger than the right, it is brighter and it lasts longer. If you want to find out which eye is stronger try to read first with one then with the other unassisted by its mate. Nine times out of ten that test shows how much more useful the left-eye is than the right. "I devoutly hope that I shall never lose either of my eyes, but if one has to go I just as devoutly hope that it will be the right. There was a time when the superstitious, and even specialists on eyes believed that only left-handed people were also left-eyed. That theory is now exploded. Overdevelopment of the left eye is in danger of becoming a disease, the peculiar effects of which are already apparent in many faces." She Fixed the Candy. A Brooklyn woman, just returned from a visit to a relative in Canada, was telling of her pet niece, a child of about 8 years, who came bounding into the room with a box of chocolate peppermints, the gift of another relative. "Do have some, Aunt Miss," said Edna. "No, thank you, dear," said her aunt. "I like peppermints, but not with chocolate covers." Little Edna looked disappointed; then left the room hurriedly, as though struck with an idea. A few minutes later she returned with a handful of white candies. "Now, you can have pepperminta, Aunt Sis," she said, delightedly. "I ticked all the chocolate off." War's Devastation. In Carlyle's story of the visit of Frederick to the devastated provinces at the close of the war we are told that this hard-hearted conqueror was moved to tears at times at what he was obliged to behold and could only promise to try and help mend. Living Words and Acts Cast forth thy act, thy word, into the ever-living, ever-working universe; it is a seed-grain that cannot die; unnotice to-day, it will be found flourishing as a banyan grove, perhaps, alas, as hemlock forest, after a thousand years.—Carlyle.

PAGE 4 COURAGE A RARE QUALITY. Successful Men of Affairs Tell of Their Experiences. Several men of affairs were discussing, not long ago, what quality was rarest. One spoke for brains—but all the others disputed him, and he presently admitted that there were plenty of fellows with brains enough and spare. Another spoke for energy and all agreed that the capacity to keep hard at it in season and out of season was difficult to find. 'When a third suggested judgment—the ability to know what to do and what not to do, when to do, when to refrain from doing. It was admitted after some argument, that this was rarer. "I have not met half a dozen men in my life," said one who was president of a railroad, "who combined judgment with enthusiasm. I'm inclined to think that enthusiasm, intelligent enthusiasm, is the rarest quality." Last of all a financier, whose name is known all over this country, spoke up. "I should say that character is the rarest quality," said he. "Not honesty, for everybody is honest according to his lights. But the disposition and the courage to do right regardless of consequences and without trying to induce conscience to say that wrong is right or almost right." After a silence the railway man said, "The world wouldn't move very fast if that quality were less rare than it is." "It doesn't move very fast," replied the financier, "and that's the whole reason."—Saturday Evening Post. City Ered Youngers Must Have Had Peculiar Taste. Ron and Reg were two dear little boys who had been born and bred in a big city and knew nothing at all of country life. So when they were taken to the real country this year, far away from towns, they were quite overcome at first by the marvels that they saw everywhere. In the beginning they were afraid of everything from the cows to the grasshoppers, but after a short time their naturally enterprising spirits overcame all their timidity and soon their mother had her hands full trying to prevent them from bring home such uncomportable pets as green toads. One day she saw them busy in the garden picking something up and eating it delightedly between them. "Boys! boys!" she cried, "what are you eating there?" "O, muvver, muvver!" answered Reg. "we just finded two tunning taterpillars, a smoove one and a fuzzy one, and the smoove one was 'licious!" Hinted. The train was crowded. In one compartment a dignified middle-aged gentleman was trying to read. Among the passengers was a lady with a very sprightly little girl who had blue eyes, a head of glistening gold, and an inquisitorial tongue. She asked the dignified gentleman innumerable questions and played with his watch chain. The mother fairly beamed upon him. He was becoming nervous, and turning to this lady, said: "Madam, what do you call this sweet child?" The mother smiled, and replied: "Ethel." "Please call her, then." THE STATESMAN, DENVER, COLORADO. A Strenuous College President. 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 theological student downcast because he could arrange no hour to meet the President for advanced work, Dr. Harper said, "Are you free at five-thirty in the morning?" "Yes," was the startled answer. "Then come every day at that hour"—and the arrangement was concluded on that basis. The World's Work. Cupid in the Dark. The beautiful heroine leaped the gawning chasm, the hero galloped down the valley and out went the lights. From somewhere in the darkness there came a series of mysterious smacks. "George," whispered a tall lady in an upper box, "is that noise made by the moving picture machine?" "No," elucidated her husband. "It is made by country couples in the parquette taking advantage of the shifting scenes to exchange kisses." The Golden Mean. "The apartments on the tenth floor," said the manager of the skyscraper flats, "command a higher rent than any others, because they're the safest in the building." "Indeed?" murmured the home-seeker. "Oh, yes, you see, few air ships ever fly that low, and automobiles never jump that high"—Philadelphia Public Ledger. The Pennsylvania railroad is planting trees so as to provide crossties for use fifteen to twenty years from now. Valuable Glasa When is glass worth more than gold? When it is the lense of a microscope. The record increase in value of the manufactured article over the raw material is probably made by this variety of glass, which multiplies itself 50,000,000 times. The front lens of a micro-objective costing about $5 weighs no more than about .0017 of a gramme, hence the value of such lenses to the weight of a kilogramme would be about $3,000,000. The cost of making this weight of glass is three to six cents, and thus when worked up into the shape of a lens the glass has increased in value about 50,000,000 times. Longing for Country A strange thing is the universal onging of professional men and others who have come to the city and have prospered as they advance in life to get back to the country. It is seldom that they do return, and when they do there is often disappointment and things do not appear as they did long ago. The change is in the man himself, but he thinks it is in the country. Nevertheless, the desire to get back to the old country place to end one's days is very general. Sir Walter Scott refers to it and compares the course of a man through the world to that of the hare which is started from her lair and after a long chase and making a large circle ends by returning to the nest from which she started.

A We Grew Our Hair Now Let Us Grow Yours with "PORO" TRADE MARK (Registered) 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.

At the recent annual meeting of the British Medical association Dr. Theodore B. Hyslop, superintendent of Bethlem Royal hospital, a specialist in neurology and in the treatment of mental disease, said: "As an alienist and one whose whole life has been concerned with the sufferings of the mind, I would state that of all hygienic measures to counteract disturbed sleep, depressed spirits and all the miserable sequels of a distressed mind, I would undoubtedly give the first place to the simple habit of prayer."—The Outlook. The Mother Tongue. A volume from Germany, "The New Opera Glass," containing "the plots of the most popular operas," affords the following concerning Goetz's "The Taming of the Refractory": Fourth act--Room in Petruchio's house. Petruchio bursting for anger about all things; nothing can satisfy him. Katharine is nearly broken in the hearth; but she loves him and her refractory 1st justly going away. Petruchio also loves her and after some quarrels their hearths are finding together to a happy life." Scent as Cure for Ills. Everybody knows in this country that the fumes of camphor and ammonia will benefit certain ills. And by the same sign, the inhalation of certain scents will cure nervousness and other scents will cure headaches and indigestion. Those who are enthusiasts on the subject say that you can cure everything in the world if you will use the right odor for it. Woman's Inventive Ability. Among the inventions made by women are copper tips for shoes, the baby carriage, the washing machine, the bread-kneading machine, a self-filling fountain pen, a portable type writer, a stem-winding watch, the bustle and three important improvements in the sewing machine. Making 10 Go Into 4 The "shopper's face" is one of the ills that the strenuous life has brought about upon the long-suffering modern woman. It is described as "a fixed, tense, anxious, puzzled look, that brings wrinkles before their time."—London Penny Magazine. Tuberculosis Figures Notwithstanding its fogs, London has a lower mortality from tuberculosis than other European capitals. In 1904 it was only 166 per 100,000 inhabitants, as against 257.5 in Berlin, 254 in Milan, 256 in Madrid, 314 in Vienna, 63 in Faria, 387 in Moscow. Priest Too studious When Rev. Fr. Coyle assumed charge of St. Mary's church in Boston a gentleman of the city, who had an employee, a very devout Catholic, inquired of him how he liked his new pastor. "Why, sir, I like him pretty well." "Pretty well! Why, what fault have you to find with him?" "To tell the truth, sir, I should have preferred a man who had finished his education; for several times when I have waited upon him I have been told that he was at his studies."

It is customary for the governor to grant to some convict a pardon on holidays. It has not fallen to Governor Buchtel so far to be the benefactor of a colored convict in this way, and at this Christmas season we call his attention to the unusual features which such an act possesses. No argument is needed to prove the comparative lack of legal defense which colored persons on trial have, for our poverty as well as the lack of sympathy which our unfortunates receive is well known. Therefore it is an easy deduction that executive clemency should find many worthy objects for its clemency among us. One well known case is that of a young man with a previous good record for industry and good citizenship who, in a fit of jealousy, killed his wife. Certainly such a one now has every incentive to make a good citizen if given the chance. In the name of the colored people of this state who have been most loyal in their support of him, we ask Governor Buchtel to stoop down and pick up one of our unfortunates for whom no powerful friends plead, for whom no celebrated lawyers act, but whose very helplessness is their only plea. Mrs. Rev. S. Hill, who has been ill with la grippe, is much improved. Mrs. Jennie Rhone has been quite ill. There will be a Christmas entertainment at Mt. Olive Baptist church on Christmas eve, to which all are cordially invited. Earl Ransom is going to Omaha to spend Christmas with his mother. Mr. and Mrs. F. Marchbanks entertained a number of young folks at their home Monday evening in honor of their daughter, Miss Geraldine.

The new parsonage of the A. M. E. church is completed, as neat a piece of work anywhere in Montana, a credit to the race in the community, built by the pastor himself since conference in September. The rooms are nicely papered and woodwork painted. The latter was done by his faithful wife. During the erecting of the building the pastor had ladies' day. They were told to bring hammer, nails and shingles. On the day named could be seen as early as 8 o'clock in the morning, ladies coming to nail on laths. They succeeded in nailing on all the siding, leaving the top for the gentlemen. Those who donated laths and those who nailed on were: Mrs. N. Jackson, Mrs. M. Allen, Mrs. Gaillard, Mrs. Reed, Mrs. L. Barnes, Mrs. M. T. Tibbs, Mrs. Lawson, Mrs. White, Mrs. Preston, Mrs. Conley, Miss P. Baker, Mrs. A. Allsup, Mrs. Redd. The men were: Messrs. Lawson, Reed, Gaillard, Hadley. Dinner was served at the church free. Many of the ladies will remember the day on account of mashed fingers. This increases our church property to a large value as it is in a good location and on the corner. Rev. Redd deserves much credit for himself in this work as every bit of the work was done by himself. He is the right man in the right place. The Ladies' Aid Society, of which Miss Pauline Baker is the president, is doing a good work. It is under the A. M. E. church. Mrs. M. T. Tibbs is sojourning in the Falls for the winter. Mr. Meyers of St. Paul suddenly took his departure for an indefinite stay. Mr. Jessie Smith has returned after a short visit to his family. Theo. Johnson, who has been visiting his parents here, returned home to the Falls. Mrs. Washington of Portland, Ore., is in the city. She is a first-class dressmaker and has found employment with Mrs. E. V. Lawson. Mrs. Ethel Cottomus of Cut Banks was the guest of her mother last week. While here she was agreeably surprised with a party of friends. She left for her home Friday. Mr. and Mrs. Redd have moved into their new home on Sixth street, having purchased two houses and lots. Mrs. S. Allsup entertained the L. and S. on Tuesday. The Sunday is preparing for a program for Christmas. Don't fail to hear the little folks. Mr. Kelley is quite ill at this writing. Sergeant Rayme, and Mr. Anderson are new arrivals in town. The latter is in partnership with T. L. Smith at the Pantatorium. THE STATESMAN, DENVER, COLORADO. Donations continue to come to the parsonage. A coal donation would be very acceptable just now as the weather is just about to set in for the winter. Mr. Osborne, who has been laid up for the past few months is completely well and can be found at his place of business. Mrs. White has been indisposed for a few days. Little Mamie Washington is on the sick list. Much credit is due Mrs. Nancy Jackson for the keeping of the pastor and wife while the parsonage was being erected. Mrs. Jackson, though a widow, did a Christian's part in taking such good care of them. She is a devote Christian, loya to her church and Christ. We pray that she may be blessed in every way and that success may attend her. We thank you from our hearts. LA JUNTA. COLO. Miss Beatrice Tyler is able to be with us again. Elaborate preparations are being made for the Christmas exercises. The program will be rendered under the auspices of the Sunday school and Allen Literary Society. If you miss the Allen Christian Enceavor League meeting at 6:30 p.m., Sunday, you will miss a treat. We are glad to note that our meetings grow more and more interesting each Sunday and we are glad, also, to see so many of our young boys in the league. Miss Bessie Vernon entertained last Tuesday evening complimentary to Miss Mary Brown of Independence, Mo. Those present were: Miss Mary Brown, Mr. Harry Wilson, Mr. Claude and Chester Tyler, Master William and Howard Berry and Mrs. M. A. Berry. Miss Vernon is an ideal hostess and the excellent repast so daintily served was more than enjoyed by all who were present. Mrs. Steward is contemplating a visit to her home in the twin cities, St. Paul and Minneapolis, for the holidays. The following are those who donated to the pastor's table this month: Mrs. M. Allen, Mrs. N. Jackson, Mrs. M. Jones, Mr. and Mrs. Lawson, Mr. and Mrs. Allsup, Mrs. Barnes, Mr. and Mrs. Reed, Miss M. Allsup, Bud and Jno. Allsup, Mrs. White, Bro. Jackson, Miss Baker.
