GENERAL OUTPOURING FOR A GRAND OVATION TO THE CHIEF NINETEENTH YEAR DENVER, COLORADO, FRIDAY JANUARY 24, 1908 Monday night Prof. W. T. Vernon, Register of the U. S. Treasury, President of Western University, preacher and preceptor, scholar and orator, will speak at Shorter church, having as his subject "The Negro in America." The coming of a man who is so high in the public service, alone would suffice to make our city do its best, and when he happens to be one, known personally to many of us, tried in time past and not found wanting, having also the happy faculty of saying things, as well as doing them, the sky is the limit of our welcome, and our best falls short of our desires. Thursday and Friday nights he was in Pueblo and Colorado Springs. He arrives in Denver some time today and will be the guest of honor at an informal dinner tendered him at the Rhine cafe by the Editor of the Statesman. Sunday morning he will speak at Shorter church, and the afternoon will be a busy one, for invitations aplenty await him, everyone trying to outdo all the rest in giving him attention. Monday he will se the sights and Monday night, judging from the sale of ticketc, the seating capacity of Shorter church will be taxed with those eager to hear him. The committee in charge urges all to come early and will make every endeavor to accommodate should there occur an overflow. Powell Orator and Statesman, Register of the U. S. Treasury, Holds the Highest Position of Any Negro in the United States At the close of the lecture there will FIVE CENTS A COPY A GRAND EF ned es of Citizens be the banquet. Out of town Coloradoans of prominence will be present. The service of Baur Catering Co., with the incomparable Owen Caswell in charge, assures perfection o service and plans made for those who come to the city from other points to attend the banquet also by having extra plates set for their accommodation even at the last minute. The Literary and College clubs are preparing to attend the banquet of the Lincoln Republican club to Hon. W. T. Vernon on Monday night, Jan. 27, 1908, at Shorter's. The "Shi Spi" club, composed of Denver's most elite and classical young folks have secured a special place at the banquet in order that they may all be together in a body with their colors. The "Kansas Club" will also be in attendance in a body with their big, smiling, yellow sunflowers. The Alumni of Old Lincoln Institute, who live in Denver and Colorado, held a rousing meeting Tuesday evening of this week to arrange for the banquet and do honor to their fellow alumnus, Hon. W. T. Vernon. Prof. L. L. McGruder was selected as temporary chairman, and Miss Carrie Carper temporary secretary. The following named Lincolnites were in attendance at the meeting and will be out in a body wearing the Continued on Page Eight --- Modern Greek Fire "Marine torches" are the direct descendants of the Greek fire of the ancients, though the modern torch is used for defense rather than offence, and prevents the surprise of a fleet through the silent approach of an enemy. It consists of an aluminum cylinder used as a projectile. On being fired from a gun it produces no result until it falls into the sea. In its interior it contains stores of calcium phosphide and calcium carbide. The former produces phosphuretted hydrogen on contact with water, which ignites spontaneously and also ignites the acetylene gas liberated from the carbide through the action of the water. Though of the chemicals is contained to last for ten hours, and a few of these torches thrown to the points of the compass from which attack might be expected would leave the defenders in obscurity, while not permitting the enemy to approach. Western Hospitality Unappreciated. "While going south on a Frisco train a few days ago," said the Rev. Paul Jenkins of the Linwood Boulevard Presbyterian church, last night, "a young fellow in the next seat pulled out a flask and offered me a drink. 'Have one?' he inquired, as if he thought that was necessary on a railroad train. 'No,' I replied rather shortly, 'I don't want one, why should I?' "My manner didn't hurt him. He looked at the man across the aisle, who was reading. There, he thought, was a man who would join him. He reached over, pushed the flask in front of him, and said: 'Have a drink stranger?' "The stranger glared at him. 'No,' he roared, 'I won't; I sell the stuff.' 'Well,' said the young man, still unabashed, 'I'll drink alone.' And he did."—Kansas City Star. Longing for Country Life A strange thing is the universalonging of professional men and otherswho have come to the city and haveprospered as they advance in life toget back to the country. It is seldomthat they do return, and when theydo there is often disappointment andthings do not appear as they did longago. The change is in the manhimself, but he thinks it is in the country.Nevertheless, the desire to get backto the old country place to end one'sdays is very general. Sir Walter Scottrefers to it and compares the courseof a man through the world to that ofthe hare which is started from herlair and after: a long chase and makings large circle ends by returningtoest from which she started. A skeptic is a man who doesn't share the good opinion we have of ourselves. One book that is fairly devoured is the cookbook, and yet it may be heavy reading. No, Maude, dear; a sliding score is not necessarily one on which ice is weighed. Even the milk dealer is not satisfied until his sales reach the high-water mark. When a man loses all his money it generally changes his appearance so that even his old friends doesn't recognize him.—Philladelphia Record. THE STATESMAN. DENVER. COLORADO. Plants and Perfumes. Plants with white blossoms have a larger proportion of fragrant species than any others; next comes red, then yellow and blue. Many of the flowers of spring are white and highly fragrant; those of autumn and winter being darker, with less perfume. Dangerous Either Way. Because of the number of homicides in the United States a statitician concludes that it is dangerous to be alive. However, considering the number of commandments that are broken, it is equally dangerous to be dead.—Louisville Courier-Journal. Over-Fatigue. The extraordinary activity of little children makes it extremely necessary that they should have frequent periods of rest. The ordinary lie-down after the morning outing is not enough. Care should be taken that quiet games follow noisy ones. Speed of Carrier Pigeons. Carrier pigeons, in calm weather, can travel at a speed of 1,200 yards a minute. With a brisk wind prevailing and blowing in the direction of its flight a pigeon has been known to make 1,900 yards in a minute. Pray for Others. Unless we pray for others, we are lacking in that spirit in which alone we can pray hopefully for ourselves, and we are living in neglect, of a prime duty to God's dear ones who need and deserve our prayers. Society Improving. In Pennsylvania the other day 70 people celebrated the thirteenth birthday of a horse. At any rate, that is an improvement on the Newport dog and monkey society events. Moments That Tell. You will find as you look back upon your life that the moments that stand out are the moments when you have done things in the spirit of love.— Henry Drummond. Greenwich Time. Greenwich time is the standard in one in Belgium and Holland. In Germany, Austria, Denmark, Italy, Scaninavia and Switzerland, one hour before Greenwich time rules. Was Not Doing a Thing. "Yes, lady," said Hungry Higgins, "police persecution ruined me life. Why, when I wuz first arrested years ago I hadn't been doin' a blessed thing."—Catholic Standard. Our Judgment Fallible. Men are never as kind, nor as wicked, as our sympathy or our anger makes us judge them.—Mme. D'Augobert. St. Paul Flouted. "Marry & Byrne. Plumbers," is a sign in a nearby town. It was St. Paul, I believe, who said it was better to marry than to burn.—N. Y. Press. Japs Adopt American Method.

B, TOILET ART- y. ITY. and the West normal, Sub-Norm The little ones of Mr. and Mrs. B. Frank Gaskin, who are quarantined on account of scarlet fever, are rapidly recovering their usual good health. An unusually large crowd attended divine services at the A. M. E. church last Sabbath morning. Rev. Jones preached a most eloquent sermon and the class meeting following was very spiritual. Mr. T. A. Edwards, one of our prosperous barbers, has in his employ a Mr. Williams of Kansas, whom we welcome into our community. We regret the loss of Mr. and Mrs. A. S. Goodall from our church and our social circle. Mr. and Mrs. Goodall are now pleasantly located in Ft. Collins, Colo. Mr. and Mrs. Simon Smith are contemplating a trip to Denver and other Colorado points in the near future. Last Sunday evening Rev. Crutchfield preached at the A. M. E. church a very powerful and inspiring sermon. Each member of the choir seemed to be in unusually good voice and the services throughout were enjoyed by an unusually large and appreciative audience. Rev. H. H. Jones, the pastor of the A. M. E. church, left this morning for Boulder, where he has been called to assist the pastor there in a revival. During his absence the pulpit will be filled by Rev. Crutchfield. Did we announce that Mr. and Mrs. Geo. Mitchell are rejoicing over the arrival of a little girl baby who has come to bless their home? Mrs. Mitchell is the daughter of Mr. Lucas, one of our prosperous property owners. We are pleased to announce that we have a Christian Endeavor Society, which has so long been needed in our church and community at large. The corps of officers elected are ones who are admirably suited to the work and who will fill their different positions with credit. The president of the society is Mrs. Wm. M Ashford; vice-president, Mrs. H. H Jones; secretary, Miss Lillian Jeffer son; recording secretary, Chas. W Pierson; treasurer, Mrs. Simor Smith; organist, Miss Eva B. Hopkins; chairman of Lookout committee, Mrs. Wm. Redd; chairman of Prayermeeting committee, Mrs. J. E Smith. We predict for the Christian Endeavor Society of Allen's A. M. E. church of Cheyenne, Wyo., "Victory." On Jan. 10th, at the home of Mrs. I. F. Landor occurred the first meet- THE STATESMAN, DENVER, COLORADO. ing in the new year of the Searchlight club. Despite the inclementy of the weather, caused by the excessively high wind, the attendance was very good indeed, only two of the regular attendants being absent. Mrs. H. C. Jefferson, the new president, presided very gracefully and throughout the meeting enthusiasm reigned supreme. After partaking of the table hospitalities served by the hostess the club adjourned, agreeing that despite the winds that blew, an enjoyable and profitable afternoon had been spent. Mr. and Mrs. J. E. Smith were the host and hostess a few evenings ago at one of the most enjoyable social affairs that has been given for some time. The occasion was a farewell reception given in honor of Mr. and Mrs. A. S. Goodall. Pleasant conversation and music whiled the earlier hours of the evening away, after which delicious refreshments were served. Among the guests present were: Mr. and Mrs. J. A. Baker, Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Ashford, Mr. and Mrs. Chas. Lucas, Mr. and Mrs. E. F. Landor, Messrs. J. C. and B. F. Gaskin, Rev. H. H. Jones, Mrs. Simon Smith and the Misses Mae Smith and Ruth Robinson. Mr. and Mrs. Goodall made many warm friends during the short time they were in our midst, and the well wishes of those attending the reception given in their honor as well as of those who were unable to be present, go with them in their new home. Mrs. W. M. Ashford was the charming hostess at the last meeting of the Searchlight club, which was held in her home. The meeting was unusually interesting, the hostess who is also chairman of the program committee, introduced a new feature in the responding to roll call with quotations which she had selected and distributed and on which she proposed that comments be made. Many of the ladies proved themselves most eloquent as extemporaneous speakers. A delicious luncheon, dainty in its appointments, was served and thoroughly enjoyed. The month of February promises to be a delightful one in a social way. Many entertainments are being planned, among them special mention must be made of the musicale to be given by the A. M. E. church choir, and the Leap Year party to be given by the Searchlight club. The Stewardess are also making elaborate preparations for an entertainment to be given during that month. Mrs. E. F. Landor is again the superintendent of Allen's A. M. E. Sunday school. Mr. Chas. Lucas, who was elected to that position at the last Sunday School election resigning in her favor. Mrs. Landor, previous to Mr. Lucas' election, had held the office for two years, but declined the nomination at the last electio non account of her health. But feeling that being persuaded to do her duty is right, she has reconsidered and after a much-needed rest, accepts the honor conferred upon her with great pleasure. Miss Ella Pierson was the chairman of a supper committee which served a very appetizing repast last Thursday evening for the benefit of the Sunday School of the A. M. E. church. She was ably assisted by the Misses Lucie Smith, Lillian Jefferson and Sallie Thistle, and by Mrs. Landor and Wm. Ashford, Jr. The entertainment did not receive the patronage that it deserved, nevertheless a neat little sum was realized. We have in our community many who are musically inclined, and those who are taking advantage of the opportunity of having their talents developed. Mrs. J. E. Smith, who has in her possession a very sweet voice and is taking vocal instructions under the leading vocal instructor in our city. Miss Mae Smith, we predict, will be one of the most fascinating singers that our race can boast of. Her voice is beautiful and her range is wonderful. She has entered the Sacred Heart convent for training. The Cheyenne correspondent's last poetical "spasm" is as follows. a few lines entitled. "What's De Use." If fightin' yo' must have, jus' fight yo' self, and fight wid vim, Fight for de truf, fight for de right, An' come in off de lim'. Dey ain't no use in allus seein' othah folk's faults, Be charitable, be kin' and yo' own vine and fig-tree trim, Be good yo' se't an' you will win, And', come in off de lim'. —By Mrs. E. F. Landor.

His grace was much interested, and on leaving for London one day, left instructions that he was to be informed of its welfare. Soon afterward the duke received a letter from the man left in charge giving the important fact that the emu had laid an egg. "And," continued the writer, "we have placed the egg, in the absence of your grace, under the biggest goose in Baron's Court." ```markdown ``` Office hours: 7 a. m. to 7 p. m. and by appointment.

Mr. George Williams came down from Pitkin Sunday. Mrs. Mary Anderson made a trip to Lake City Wednesday, returning Thursday. F. Shavers is suffering with rheumatism this week. Master Harry Bryan is on the sick list this week. Owing to the death of Mrs. Susan Bryan the Literary has closed for a month. Mr. Anderson arrived in our city Friday evening to be present at the funeral of his mother-in-law, Mrs. Susan Evans. Mr. G. W. Redfield of Denver was in our city Friday. Died at her home, on Taylor street, Thursday morning, Mrs. Susan Evans. Aunt Susan, as she was familiarly known, was born in Washington county, Missouri, Oct. 20th, 1827, and moved to Gunnison in 1881, where she has since resided a honored and respected citizen and loved by all who knew her. Her death comes as a severe shock to the community. Aunt Susan has a host or friends in Gunnison and throughout the county who will mourn her loss. She was kind and loving friend and neighbor and all will miss her presence and kindly greeting. She is survived by two children and four grandchildren, a daughter, Mrs. Mary Anderson, living in Montrose, and a son, Richard Evans, living in Gunnison, also two sisters and a brother living in St. Louis. Funeral services were held at the Presbyterian church Saturday afternoon at 1:30, Rev. Webber officiating. The casket was covered with floral offerings.

A Secret Worth Leaing. You poor man," said M. 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 sent, though, as long as I was able to work, confound him." "And what do you do here?" "Slt 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 Disguised 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. Chances Gone for Ever. People who were killed in automobile accidents would turn over in their graves if they knew of the lovely press notices that are being lavished on those who are risking their lives by going up in a balloon.—Washington Post.

Met Henry W. Savage the other day and accumulated the following quite characteristic story of George Ade. As of course you know, Mr. Savage produced "The Sultan of Sulu," 'Peggy from Paris" and other comic operas of which Mr. Ade prolific pen was the proud progenitor, and he was urging the Hoosier librettist to write another musical comedy for the Savage office. "Can't do it, governor," cried Mr. Ade, shaking his head, gloomily; "can't do it; I can't write lyrics to save my immortal soul." "You can't write lyrics?" echoed the tall manager. "Well I'd like to know what's the matter with 'R-em-o-r-s-e.'" "Great Sulu's Sultan!" wailed Ade; grimly; "R-e-m-o-r-s-e wasn't a lyric; it was autobiography." Repose. The most beautiful thing about the New York clubman is his repose. If you want to be a successful clubman cultivate repose. Eat, drink, think and dream repose. Never hurry. Never get excited. Talk deliberately mysteriously. Let your eyes up. Never appear interested in anything. Make believe you have seen whatever of life that's fit or unfit to print and are looking only for rest. Let nothing surprise you. Appear bored. Avoid introductions. Be "at home" to nobody. Keep your hat on. Never shake hands.—New York Press. We-ving Done by Nature. As a weaver nature produces fine work. Certain tree barks and leaves furnish excellent cloth, as, for instance, the famous tap cloth used in the South Sea islands. Nature is a glassmaker, too, according to the Indian Review. By discharging her lightning into beds of quartz sand she forms exquisite little pipes of glass. She makes valuable ropes of various kinds in the shape of tropical vines and creepers. Busy Meanwhile. "Lost your temper, eh?" said the father, sternly. "Didn't I tell you if any of the other boys ever said anything to make you angry, you should count 50 before you replied?" "Yes, sir," replied the husky boy. But I didn't get time to count 50 Before I counted 20 the other feller yelled 'Enough.'"—Philadelphia Press Practical. "What did she say when she heard he was dead in love with her?" Practical. "She wanted to know if he carried say life insurance." Brigands Fire on Train. Armed brigands opened a fusillade of rifle shots on a train that refused to halt at their summons, near Alora, in the province of Malaga, Spain, one passenger being wounded. Why is it that a man always gives away better advice than he ever gets? A girl no longer needs a chaperon after she is able to call some chap her own. Never judge a man's knowledge of human nature by the opinion he has of himself. Often the self-made man boasts of a job that other men would be ashamed of. --- Music for all Occasions Bic GEO. A.

With closed eyes, two young men in the blind asylum were playing chess. The board they played on had the black squares raised and the white ones sunken, while the black places were rough and the white ones smooth. "Give us this handicap on account of our blindness," said one of the young men, "and we will play as quick and accurate a game of chess as anybody. Give us checkers and a checker board constructed on the same plan, and there, too, our playing will equal yours. "I would rather be blind than deaf," he went on. "Blindness doesn't rob you of much. The blind are excellent anglers. They play a good game of euchre, or poker, or bridge. They use cards that have embossed pipes. "The blind are good runners, good gymnasts. In our last sports the hundred yards were done in under twelve seconds, and on the horizontal and parallel bars, the giant swing, the corkscrew, the straight arm balance and the finger balance were executed in a way that elicited sivos of applause. 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 mentioed 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 in 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" Valuable Glass. 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. 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." WHALEBONE AT $3,780 A TON. It Might Pay Now to Look Up Those Old Whalebone Ribbed Umbrellas. "I see by the papers," said Mr. Grillfinby, "that the last quotation for whalebone in England was £1,750, or, say, about $8,750 a ton, making whalebone worth now somewhere in the neighborhood of $4.50 a pound—a pretty costly commodity. "I can remember the time when whalebone was cheap, very cheap; when we used to burn whale oil in lamps and use whalebone for umbrella ribs. Those old-time whalebone ribbed umbrellas were not much like the present steel ribbed close rollers. "No. They were of the bulgy out sort of gingham umbrellas that you see now sometimes reproduced after a fashion on the comic stage, but which are now never actually used by anybody, though once they were used by everybody, umbrellas with whalebone ribs. And what I was going to say was this: "People are out all the time looking through the country for old furniture, quaint old colonial, and that sort of stuff. Why couldn't we hunt up those umbrellas—there must be millions of them lying around in country garrets—why couldn't we look up those old whalebone ribbed gingham umbrellas, for the whalebone there is in them? Don't you think there may be an idea here for making uvoy. The late Bishop Dudley of Louisville, Ky., some time before his death, which occurred in New York, was invited by some women friends to take luncheon at the Martha Washington, the woman's hotel. The bishop was a very absent-minded man, and found upon arriving at the hotel that he had not been shaved that morning. Stepping up to the clerk at the desk, and much to the horror of groups of women in the hotel, he asked: "Can you tell me where the barber's shop is in this hotel?"—New York Times.

Never have there been more deaths caused by tigers than during the last six months. In one village alone in Holpu region not far from No Ma, which can be reached by the steamship Nanking every two or three days from Macao, there is a small village which has lost ten persons on account of tigers, while in the same region some twenty more persons have paid the penalty of their lives on account of these ferocious animals. Why cannot some of the Nimrods of Hongkong inaugurate a great hunt and thus clear out those monsters which have become a menace to the Chinese? Innocent women and laughing children would be forever thankful to any one who would deliver them from this curse, which they dread so much. The Chinese seem to have no skill in exterminating or catching these wily beasts, or perhaps they fear to molest them, lest the tiger spirits may injure their persons in the future. Be that as it may, it is a great shame that not more than one hundred to one hundred and twenty miles from Hongkong, within easy reach, these wild beasts are permitted to carry on their depredations. Let those who delight to shoot the innocent and harmless birds once try a good sized tiger for a target and the Chinese will rise up and call them blessed and immortalize their name and deed in verse.—Hongkong Telegraph. African King Coming to America The alake of Abeakuta, a muscula African king, who created a sensation a month or so ago in England heard so many wonderful things about America while in King Edward's realm that he has determined, after returning to his native home, to pay a visit to America. His majesty is very black and very ugly, but the barbaric magnificence of his garments made a great sensation in London. He will arrive some time before the end of November. Field Guns Soon Obsolete. Though adopted no more than six or seven years ago, the whole of the German quick-firing field artillery has been condemned as "obsolete" and is to be replaced by shield-protected guns recoiling on their own limber.

During recent army maneuvers in England a stampede of cavalry horses occurred which is believed to have been without precedent in times of peace. In the camp near Southampton a horse broke a leg during the night and a veterinary surgeon shot the animal as it stood in the horse lines. The flash and report so terrified the remainder of the animals that they dashed through the camp, trampling upon tents filled with sleeping men and scattered over the whole country. Some made their way through another camp, communicating panic to the horses there, and they joined in the stampede, over 1,000 animals breaking away. Most disastrous was the result to the animals. Many fell, breaking their legs and necks, while scores were injured by barbed wire fences and iron-bed picket pegs which they carried off with them. One drove of about 200 dashed toward the sea and plunged into the water of the harbor. Men in boats put out and turned back as many as possible. Landing stages had to be broken down to get the horses ashore. Several animals were drowned. Another drove of seventy horses passed through Winchester, apparently making for Aldershot. Several men were injured by the animals dashing through the camp. Fifty horses were killed, while a trainload of wounded animals was sent back to Aldershot for treatment. Argument Unanswerable. Commissioner Woodbury of the department of street cleaning tells this anecdote of a friend of his who was walking through Central park the other day. Being in somewhat of a hurry, he started to cut across the grass at one place, but was stopped by a park policeman, who remonstrated with him. What difference does it make?" asked the New Yorker. "The grass is half dead, anyway." "Sure, an' what if it is?" responded the indignant guardian of the peace. 'Sure an' if yez had a sick friend would yez be takin' a walk on his stomach?"—New York Times. Women Not Wanted. French West Africa is to be an Eveless Paradise. The governor general has intimated to the minister of the colonies that the number of stations and posts offering facilities for married officers or functionaries are very few, and that great inconvenience is already caused by the difficulty of providing family quarters. The minister is requested to stop the further ingress of families, and an order has just been issued warning all whom it may concern that appointments in West Africa must henceforward be accepted on the basis of bachelorhood Army officers will, of course, leave families behind.—London Globe. Seek to Decelve Gods. In cases of drought it is customary in China to organize processions to the temples, everybody going barehead. If they meet any one in a covered chair or carrying a sunshade, they destroy the chair and the shade, in the belief that the gods will be merciful and grant relief sooner if everybody is suffering from the heat.

A curious story of love and revenge comes to us from the far east and the fact that it is the love and revenge of a Javanese monkey doesn't abate the human interest in the narrative. Nor should the further fact that the tale comes to us via the crew of a tramp steamer abate all confidence in its truth. It appears that the sailors who manned this steamer had collected in Java a number of monkeys for speculative purposes and these were confined in the hold. Among them were two unusually intelligent simians who were released during the voyage and permitted the freedom of the ship. Unhappily a sudden storm came up and one of the playful creatures was washed overboard. The remaining one, who after his comrade's sudden taking off, searched the ship for hours and finally betook himself to the rigging, where he remained three days, refusing food and avoiding all efforts to capture him. No doubt he held the sailors responsible for the death of his partner and it would appear that he was formulating a scheme for revenge. Anyway, the third night he released all the monkeys in the hold and for two days the simians made life miserable for the sailors. They bit and scratched and fought and it was only after a number of them had been flung overboard that the balance could be captured and secured. And in all the forays and fierce charges the revengeful monkey was in the van. Whatever may be contended concerning the reasoning powers of the brute creation, there has been many instances recorded of their remembrance of past injuries. And this fact would seem to give the story of monkey vengeance some semblance of truth Venomous Sea Snakes. Sea snakes are very plentiful in the south Pacific. They are widely distributed, stray individuals having been secured on the coast of New Zealand. When swimming close to the surface they exactly resemble an ordinary snake, except that the head is always below water. At night they come ashore and lie among the rocks. They feed on fish and although their small double fangs appear harmless they are reported to be very venomous. Origin of Oxygen. Lord Kelvin once showed that all the oxygen in the atmosphere probably came from the action of sunlight on plants. When the earth was a globe of hot liquia it contained no vegetable fuel, and probably no free oxygen. But as it cooled off plants appeared on its surface and these began to evolve oxygen through the medium of the sunbeams. Upon the oxygen thus derived we depend for the maintenance of life by breathing. How natural to fancy pleasure in the veined marble and the many-colored mosaic—bohemianism's lower tone.

Wedding Not Worth Paying For, During the early years of his ministry at Calais, Me, the late Rev. Geo. W. Durell was one day called upon to perform the marriage service for a couple who came into town from some out-lying section, and after the ceremony the woman said: "Say, parson, Jim ain't got no money, but I will be around to-morrow to pay for this job." Some two weeks afterward she met Mr. Durell on the street, and recalled herself to his memory, saying: "You know, parson, I was goin' to pay for that job you done for Jim and me, but I didn't, for Jim run away the next day, and I didn't think it was worth while." Furniture Used by Napoleon. When he returned to Washington recently Ambassador Von Sternberg brought a complete suite of drawing-room furniture that had adorned the rooms occupied by Napoleon in Leipsic. These treasures were bequeathed to the ambassador by a relative whose grandfather had owned the place where the Corsican elected to abide. The furniture is ancient Flemish and in the tapestry are woven mythological designs. The frames bear a gold design. A desk at which Napoleon wrote vigorous messages is part of the legacy. Feed Babes to Snakes. The United States grand jury at Albuquerque, N. M., is investigating reports that the Indians of the Pueblo of Zae, the most isolated of the Pueblo tribes of New Mexico, feed a certain number of new born babies each year to a mammoth snake which is worshiped by the tribe. The Interior Department will probably be asked to interfere. No "Arctic Moon." The arctic moon is just the same as the moon everywhere. The cause of the prolonged polar days and nights does not affect the moon in the slightest degree. Look for Action from Senator. According to general belief Mr Knox of Pennsylvania does not mean to be a silent member of the United States senate at the coming session. As a rule newcomers are rather expected to keep in the background for a time, but Senator Knox is tacitly booked to take a leading part in discussion of the railroad rate measure. For many years Pennsylvania senators have almost confined themselves to committee activity. The Camerons, father and son, were silent men, and so to a great extent was Mr Quay. Mr. Penrose, too, rarely opens his lips, so the spectacle of a Pennsylvania senator active in debate will be somewhat of a novelty. More Than Princely Pr This story of Prince Leo. Battenberg is going the rounds: A bright woman who met him at a garden party in the course of his Canadian visit was commenting on the change in the weather which had that morning seemed dull and threatening. "Yes, t has brightened up," said the prince in his genial way. "You see, when I came to town to-day I brought good weather with me." "Well," said the woman, with a naughty twinkle in her eye, "I have heard of a Hohenzoller speaking of 'I and God,' but it remains for a Battenberg to leave out God!"

Academy all WEDNESDAY MATINEE EVERY THE STATESMAN, DENVER, COLORADO. Mrs. Porter and A. W. Ball, were out of the city, were summoned and came to be present at the funeral. It occurred yesterday from Shorter church of which she was a member. Of her children, Mrs. Patton and Bert Ball lived in this city and James Ball is employed on the Pacific ocean and could not come. Besides these immediate relatives there are other branches of the family who are bereft. A long and lovely life is brought to a close. A faithful soldier of the Cross has laid down the load. The mourning ones weep, the friends sympathize, but the relentless hand has taken away and the giver of all things knows best. Julia Rodgers As a result of a complication of ailments, Julia, the beloved wife of R. Rogers of West Fourteenth avenue, died Sunday and was buried Tuesday from Shorter church. She was a member of that church and a woman whose quiet charm had endeared her to many. Her husband is left alone bereft of all but the sincere sympathy of all who knew her. The interment wa sat Fairmount cemetery. Undertaker Lawhorn was in charge of the arrangements. The floral offerings were very profuse and beautiful. Edward Jones As the outcome of a quarrel wherein Benj. Arbuckle, his wife and her father were principals, Edward Jones, a friend of all parties and an innocent bystander, was killed Sunday by Arbuckle. He now lies in jail awaiting trial for murder. Not having been arraigned, the degree of crime has not been set. ALLIANCE HAS LIVELY MEETING The simple announcement that a person would discuss Socialism vs. Individualism would naturally bring out a large audience, but when the name of a person of the caliber of the man whose deep researches and varied literary attainment was announced one week ago even at that time many present declared their willingness to come. The subject was presented by Lawyer J. H. Stuart and a very lively discussion followed, which, while it was impossible to bring out all the main propositions involved in the gigantic subjects of Socialism and Individualism, the following points were developed by the speakers. That Socialism was based upon the principle that all things produced collectively and used collectively should be owned collectively; that During the Fast Week the Following Have Crossed the Great Divide. Amanda Wiley Mrs. Amanda Wiley, who died at 1944 Pearl street on Monday night at 8 o'clock, was in her 76th year. Mrs. Wiley, mother of Jeff Wiley, succumbed to a paralytic stroke. Her interment will be from the Central Baptist church, of which she has been a member for years. The Benevolent Society of Kansas will have charge of the funeral. The Lawhorn Company Undertakers. Annie B. Clark After an illness running over two years, Annie B. Clark, wife of James F. Clark, died Wednesday morning. All the loving care of her immediate family and of her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Price, was lavished in vain, and peacefully the end came to her suffering. She was a member of Shorter church and the funeral will occur there Sunday afternoon. Undertaker Gilmore is in charge of arrangements. The interment will be at Riverside. She was born in Kansas City 32 years, 5 months and 22 days ago and has made this city her home since she was six years of age. Besides her husband she has one son, mother and father and friends of many years to mourn her loss. William Lloyd Wm. Lloyd died at the county hospital Thursday afternoon. The funeral arrangements are in charge of Undertaker Gilmore. Dennis Burns Dennis Burns, an old citizen, who was living on his ranch near Parker, died last week of pneumonia, the funeral occurring Tuesday afternoon from Shorter church, of which he was a member. The obsequies were under charge of Arapahoe Lodge of which he was a member. Of his children, Spencer Burns and Mrs. B. K. Bruce of Leavenworth were present besides his wife. The interment was at Riverside cemetery. Undertaker Gilmore was in charge. Life was just beginning to mean comfort to him after a busy life when he was called home. Many tender remembrances were given by the friends. Melvina Ball While yet her daughter, Mrs. Patton, was suffering from illness and she was caring for her, Mrs. Melvina Ball was stricken down was gastritis and died Tuesday after a brief time. Her children, of whom Mrs. Corpeau Socialism was evolutionary in character and its goal was the ultimate establishment of the brotherhood of man, while on the other hand Individualism stood for the separation of the whole human family into separate and distinct units, which, if carried out to its ultimate conclusion, every man would be a law unto himself and anarchy would result; that the individual would progress much more rapidly alone than by being fettered to others. As a whole the program was greatly appreciated and enjoyed by the large crowd present. Sunday afternoon a crowded house is expected as Hon. Dr. W. T. Vernon has been invited to address the Alliance a few moments. The excellent work of the program committee of the Eureka Literary Society is clearly demonstrated by the crowded house every Tuesday night. Nearly every young person in town can be found there. Congratulations, program committee. REV. PAYNE'S CONCERT Last Thursday night, while only a few people were out, one of the best programs ever produced in Denver was rendered upon that occasion. Never has a better selection of performers ever appeared at any time nor place than those that appeared then. Not a single mistake was made, not a hitch in the program, as every one appeared and people performed then that any congregation would have been honored to have heard. Speaking in particular, I mention that basso solo so excellently sung by Wayman Ward, the readings of Mrs. Esther Morris, which were so ludicrously rendered, from Dunbar's poems, that the few people nearly went into spasms because of the continued fun and laughter brought about by her rare ability to render such selections. Then R. E. Handy and Carsey Morris had one of the most complex and difficult selections of Shakespeare—not only difficult to read and understand, but most perplexing to recite and suit every word to the action. The young men carried the house. To merely mention the Azalia Hackley Choral Society is to herald its success upon that evening. The applause which lasted several minutes only caused the ladies' chorus to faultlessly render "Pretty Prim" and the audience was even then loathe to release them from singing. singing. Mrs. Lillian Jones sang in her accustomed, pleasing manner. Rev. Payne has been receiving congratulations all the week for the excellent taste and careful selections he made for his program, which was more of an artistic success than a financial one.

But Nicholas (le. clared himself unable to find a single man whom he dared trust for the sim ple operation. He sent to Frederick William IV of Prussia, asking that a tew noncommissioned officers of the Prussian guards might be allowed to wait upon him. The application was granted, and the officers acted as mas seurs and returned to Berlin laden with rich presents. “I know my Rus sians,” Nicholas told them. “So long as I can look them in the face every- thing is well, but I will not risk let ting them work behind my back.” Clerayman Student of History.

She brought her flour and was shown how to make the eponge. This she took home and the next morning the writer went to her house, showed her how to knead the bread, how to make it into saves and how to bake it, but after some time the woman brought the dough to the teacher's nome, requesting her to bake it for her. After all was finished she said: “Well, this is all a great deal of trouble and it takes altogether too long. When we want bread we want {t right away.” Another neighbor re marked: “The light bread is ike a sponge, nothing to it.” ge AFB EED CVC AAN EERE Se TUN PET wees Old “Jim” Macomber Jives alone om a small island in Lake Boone, but he by no means shuas society, especial- ly the convivial, says « writer in the Eoston Herald. At a farewell cele bration given at the close of the past season by one of the summer cottag- ers “Jim” was an invited guest, and when the party broke up, after mid- Light, and he set out for his island, he was so completely bewildered that he spent the night groping about in the thick bushes behind the barn, searching for his boat. Meantime, one of the visiting cot- tagers, who was almost as hefnddled as “Jim” was, waded out into the water and climbed into his boat fron: the further end, and then drifted about on the lake for the rest of the night, and until daylight brought something of soberness. When the company assembled in the morning there was much joking at the expense of the pair. The dis- -comfited cottager, in desperation, ‘tried to turn atteniton from himself to “Jim” by remarking: “Jim, I hvar that you were looking for your boat out in the bushes last night, a half. mile from shore.” Immediately came the retort from “Jim”: ‘Wal. ef 1 was, I didn’t get my feet wet, by fosh.” Hope is the only illusion we never quite lose, It is always fatal to try to recon- struct the past. é Worrying never did any one any good whatsoever, No cat likes affection when affec- tion rubs its zur off, We are now pleased to announce to the public that we are now locating at 2057%% Larimer street with all kinds of hair goods and ornamental goods of all kinds, and we also announce we ‘ ' have a full line of millinery in the latest Parisian style in hats and bon- nets of all kinds, Miss Genevieve Hallowell, prop. q Mrs. J.

They Are Doing Great Work in Civilizing the Red Man. The Indian day schools are centers of interesting things uplifting to a needy people, says a writer in the Southern Workman. They are home object lessons of cleanliness, industry and thrift. They teach industries suitable to the environment in which the children live. They strengthen home ties by requiring parents to care for their offspring. They give teachers an opportunity to study the conditions of the Indian home and to better them. They are distributing points for medicine and good counsel. They silently but unobtrusively break down opposition to American dress and customs. Above all, they keep the Indians at home. Some teacher has said that if the day schools did no more than keep the Indians at home they would be worth all they cost. These schools should have the best and most valuable Christian men and women in the service. They should have a man for teacher death are frequently attributed to Divine Providence when the blame is wholly due to personal neglect. Preventable suffering should not be laid at the door of heaven. A man is aware that he is not in his usual condition of strength; he tires easily and takes cold with alarming frequency. Now is the moment for the stitch in time. Nature is doing her very best in danger signals and is warning the man by every means in her power that he must call a halt. With mistaken zeal he plods on in the face of her warnings and presently there is a wreck. The man comes down with an illness, and the family, if he dies, speak of it as strange and mysterious. There is nothing mysterious in a break down, from over-work. Where it is possible to take even a day's outing or where a week's rest will freshen and restore the jaded and repair the wasted brain tissues, the stitch in time will prove effectual. ```markdown ``` We laugh at colds and regard them as the disagreeable commonplaces of existence. The plain truth however is that colds are nearly always blunders, that might have been avoided Repeated colds and neglected colds pave the way for the entrance of those malevolent germs that undermine the very foundations of life. To keep the body in a state of the highest possible vitality is the part of wisdom, and this may often be done by the use of a stitch in time The World's Alphabets.

Evils Arising From Deafness An ear specialist insists that deafness affects all the senses. He says the reason for this is that the ear is only one servant of the sensory service of the human system. Loss of hearing is really a partial paralysis of the brain, but owing to the sympathetic connection of the various sensory nerve centers of the brain the others indirectly concerned have to combat for their very life the demoralizing influence of the affected center. Judicious Spening. It is argued by some t, for the common weal, the universal spending of money should be encouraged. Saving money, however, does not imply burying it from circulation but sending it along into circulation in one's own name. What the young men of the country need is not encouragement to spend their money but to spend it judiciously and wisely. A Cat with Wings. The boatswain of the "Caspian," an English schooner, brought with him from India a strange animal-bird, which he always referred to as his "Tabby." It certainly looked more like a cat than anything else; but it was probably some freak of the animal world. It had two pairs of wings, but could fly only with difficulty, like a tame duck. Spider's Wonderful Strength. Recently in the village of Havana, in New York state, an insignificant looking little garden spider pounced upon a milksnake, bit it, entangled it in her threads and actually hoisted it off the ground. The fact that the snake weighed 96 times as much as its captor makes this achievement a most remarkable one. Friend of Freedom Dead. Carl Joubert, one of the most famous English advocates of Russian freedom, died the other day in London. It is said that his real name was A. W. C. Grote and that he was a descendant of the historian of Greece. The name Joubert he adopted because it was that of his mother before marriage. She was a member of the well-known Dutch South African family of that name. Carl Joubert first went to Russia about twenty years ago and found such an attraction in the country and its people that he practically became a Russian. A girl can never decide whether she'd rather be married and not in love or in love and not married. When a woman finds a man she can't flatter she immediately has respect for him, so she never respects any at all. It's a comfort to the proud mother of a family of children to read how none of the great men ever got good marks at school. You can tell a lot more about a girl's ideas on any question by the shirt waists she wears than by the graduating essay she reads Cheap.
