FRANKLIN'S PAPER THE STATESMAN NINETEENTH YEAR MID-WINTER SHORTER'S REVIVAL STIRS UP CITY, SINNERS OF ALL SIZES AND KIND REPENTANT. ELOQUENT MINISTERS ENGAGE IN VAST SOUL SAVING WORK. MANY CONVERTS. MEETINGS FULL OF HOLY GHOST. BACKSLIDERS SIN-SICK. ```markdown ``` Denver, like other communties throughout the country in the past, has had its regular mid-winter revivals. Chicago is now experiencing a revival wave in her city, where all the Methodist and Baptist churches have come together in a union meeting and an indescribable religious success is being witnessed. But the revival at Shorter is not the ordinary mid-winter revival. It is deeper, more far-reaching and intensely enthusiastic than any heretofore; it is the logical outcome of silent religious forces that have been at work for some time. The religious and praying men and women of all denomination have been active and aggressive in seeking and harmonizing the different creeds into one common effort to reclaim all the lost sheep and all others to lead better lives. Shorter has been crowded nightly and all Christians have been free and anxious to unionize, thus concentrating all righteousness upon those whose sins have been fast pressing them beyond the pale of righteousness. From all walks of life they came prostrating themselves in the undisguised manifestation of the sorrowness of their sins. Old sinners seasoned by years of bad and immoral living, and young sinners, whose course is unquestionably leading them down to destruction, are one in doing the manly and womanly act by joining REVIVALS the ranks of those anxious to follow and live a life by principle and not a life by haphazard. Nothing is more painful and nothing more tragic than the best of our young men and women bright with intelligence and hope, who are voluntary victims of pleasures which lure them on to the degradation of both body and soul. Everybody is of such a perfect unit and accord that during the last two weeks several religious fires have broken out with the accompanying shouts, hallelujahs, caused by the old time songs, old time prayers, and testimonies which work a powerful influence. The peculiarity of these series of meetings, is that everybody comes early to the prayer meeting and song service. A COLORADO BOY'S SUCCESS AT COLLEGE. The Inter-State Literary Society's prize-winner in original music, "Nocturne," composed and written by Mr. Clyde Andrews of Denver, Colo., now attending Western University at Quindaro, has been published in high-class sheet music form for the piano, and organ, and is now being sold all over the Western states by Professors Albert Ross and R. G. Jackson of Western University. Every loyal Coloradoan should back up this Colorado boy by purchasing a copy, and thus inspire other Colorado boys and girls to see a higher ideal in music for them, than this degrading shakeyour-foot rag-time music.

THE MARRIAGE OF LUCAS. Rev. Alzamon Ira Lucas and Miss Clara C. Oberdorfer were married in the Second Baptist church of Cheyenne, Wyoming, on the 7th inst. at 1 o'clock, Rev. W. H. Barry officiating. Miss Oberdorfer has been, for the past two years, a faithful servant of the Limitless Life endeavors and Rev. Lucas now has closed every loop-hole of criticism. The couple called at our office and expressed themselves in thankfulness for every condition that brought about their union. We are of the opinion that their mission now unhampered will take on new life for a broader work in all races. We extend our congratulations and may their lives continue to be expressive of their teachings. REPORT ASSESSMENTS. To the Pastors of the Denver District A. M. E.

Consul Goldschmidt, of Nantes, contributes an extended article on industrial art education in France and its influence upon French industries. He says in part: "There are at present in France, aside from the national art schools, 300 provincial and municipal schools of fine arts, which are free to young men and women. While leaving to each school the development of the line of art suited to local needs, the state gives direction by annual visits of inspectors of drawing. The application to trade is practical and complete. The 'administration of fine arts' selects and sends the greater part of the models useful to instruction, gives prizes, scholarships, purses and encouragement to pupils who have distinguished themselves during their course of studies. The influence of artistic training upon the industries of France is paramount, and the ordinary observer is struck at once when examining an article in the French shops of home manufacture of its superiority over similar goods made in other countries. If one visits an art gallery or a museum in France on Sunday, the great interest of the working people may be witnessed in the arts and sciences. A conversation with these workers reveals a general interest of the masses in matters of art and its general application." Beaufort Dyke a Curiosity The Beaufort dyke off the coast of the Mull of Galloway is a deep trough in the bed of the Irish sea. It is sharply out of a comparatively level sea bottom, with an average depth of seventy to eighty fathoms and extends down to from 100 to 148 fathoms. Attention has just now been directed so it by the proposition to construct a submarine tunnel from Scotland to Ireland. In connection with the surveys that have been made of the channel bottom it has been found that there are currents of considerable force at work in the bottom of this trough. At one point the bottom was worn away at the rate of sixty feet a year while in another place it was being built up almost as rapidly. Disorder Makes Trouble. It is astonishing how all of us are generally cumbered up with the thousand and one hindrances and duties which are not such, but which, nevertheles, wind us about with their spider thread and fetter the movement of our wings. It is the lack of order which makes us slaves; the confusion of to-day discounts the freedom of tomorrow. H( ) Millionaires of Yucatan. The wealth of the mines of Mexico is proverbial, yet there are nearly as many millionaires in Merida, the capital of Yucatan, a state with practically no mineral resources, as there are in all Mexico combined. Henequin, or sisal hemp, as it is sometimes known, has made Merida, and its people rich. Typewriter for the Nerves. A prominent Boston physician has a new cure for nervous prostration.

Dear Editor of The Statesman: Please give space in the columns of your great paper to speak of an excellent and worthy character of our church and community. There are institutions and organizations which have grown to such proportions and magnitude of influence and strength, that they are self-sustaining, and have also become indispensable; but there are movements and endeavors, which require great spirits and untiring energy to foster them and bring to them a liberal public response. Such is the spirit and energy of Miss Susie Starkey, president of Allen Christian Endeavor League, of Hubbard Chapel A. M. E. church. Ho!

DOG PROVED ITSELF HERO. Gave Up Life in Attempt to Stop Runaway Team. Near Pittsford a dog was killed in a determined and intelligent effort to stop a runaway team. Conrad Hoenick, a farmer, left his team standing near a railroad track. Two little boys were in the wagon. The horses were frightened by a passing train and ran away with the lads. One of the boys was thrown out and severely injured. The other remained in the wagon, and while the speed of the frightened team increased every second he made frantic efforts to reach the lines and stop them. As the horses passed Frank Tousley's place the latter's dog, which carried the mail and did many little tasks about the farm and had almost human intelligence, ran out, and seeing the predicament of the boy, attempted to catch hold of the dangling lines. Like a human being the animal, without a sound, ranged himself into line to seize the reins, and, in his anxiety to do so, was struck by the wheel and instantly killed. The boy managed to get hold of one rein, and with it he turned the horses and stopped them.—Warren Mirror. May Cure Turtle Flesh. There is talk in Queensland, Australia, on whose coast turtles are plentiful, of curing the flesh for export. Three kinds of turtle are found off the coral reefs—the loggerhead, the hawsbill and the green turtle. The two latter are edible, and the hawsbill furnishes the tortoise shell of commerce. Travelers relate that the aborigines light fires on the backs of the turtles to make the shell peel off easily, after which painful ordeal the animal is allowed its freedom and grows another shell. This is, of course, a Munchausen yarn. The fact is that after killing the turtle the aborigines put it over a fire to facilitate the removal of the plates. The professional tortoise shell getters bury the beast in clean sand, and when the flesh is decomposed it is easily taken from the shell. The plentiful green turtle is of most value for food. 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 roping up in a balloon.—Washington Post. Last of Famous Family. Ex-Senator W. D. Washburn of Minnesota is a picture of robust and placid old age. Het is the only survivor of seven brothers, four of whom attained national fame. Three of the Washburns, Israel, Elihu B. and Cadwallader C., were members of the national House of Representatives at the same time, the only instance in the political history of this government when three men thus related had seats in Congress simultaneously.

F., at a regular meeting, January, 1908: Whereas, It has pleased Almighty God in His wisdom and power to remove from our lodge two brothers who have fallen in death and will not awake till the trumpet shall sound, Bro. Ralph Branford, who departed this life Jan. 10, and Bro. Dennis Burns, who fell asleep Jan. 18. They have conquered death and gone before their Maker. We know that the principles of our order took root in their hearts and we have the sweet consolation that it is "well with their souls." Therefore be it Resolved, That in the deaths of Brothers Branford and Burns our lodge has lost two faithful and true workers and we thus express our sympathy and sorrow at their death and feel that our loss is heaven's gain; be it further Resolved, That in their death we may so live that when the summons comes to join us in friendship, love and truth the innumerable caravans that move to that mysterious realm where each must take his seat in the sweet hall of death, there to go not like the quarry slave, scourged to the dungeon, but approach like one who wraps the drapery of his couch around him and lies down in his silent bed beneath the soil of the earth. Brothers Branford and Burns, we can only commend you to God who rules and controls the heavens and the earth and all things therein, for he doeth all things well. The removal of our brothers from our ranks causes two links of our chain to be broken by the grim monster Death, and sooner or later he will sever us all, for we too are passing away; be it further Resolved, That Arapahoe lodge hall be draped in mourning for thirty days in respect to their memory, and that a copy of these resolutions be sent to the Odd Fellows' Journal and the weekly papers of Denver, to each one of the bereaved families, and that a copy be spread on the minutes of our lodge. 'Tis our to dry the widow's tears, The orphan's heart to cheer; may we be found. W. H. PENSON, N. G. H. PAGE, V. G. C. W. YOUNG, Chaplain H. RICE, N. F. C. HERNDON, P. N. F. G. D. HALL, P. S.

New York.-The marriage of Miss Marjorie Conley and D. Perry Wilson, just announced, was the result of another of the many romances that have begun in the surf. Two years ago Miss Conley, who had come to New York from Louisville, Ky., to earn her own living went to Atlantic City on her vacation. She was an expert swimmer, but one day, venturing outside the life lines, she became exhausted, and, but for the aid of a young man, would probably have drowned. The man was D. Perry Wilson, son of a wealthy railroad man of Lock Haven, Pa., and a graduate of Lehigh university. Miss Conley and Mr. Wilson became friendly, but when she returned to New York they lost sight of each other. A few months ago, when Wilson was in town, he telephoned to the Hotel Astor, and the voice of the telephone operator was familiar to him. He investigated, and discovered that the voice be onged to Miss Conley. Spindle-Shanked Men of To-day. "You see," said Mr. Simpson, editor of the American Gentleman, "trousers are trousers and there are no new ideas possible in them. We've had the baggy trousers and the peg-top. The normal has now been attained and we're going to stick to it. Knee breeches? Oh, my, no! You'll never see them in America—not even for evening dress. The trouble is that the modern city man is too spindle shanked and knock-kneed to wear them with distinction. And it's not only the city man's legs that are deteriorating in grace and strength. It's a well known fact among tailors that the man of to-day is physically inferior to his grandfather. It's the extension of transit facilities and elevator service that is ruining him.

The activity of the German shipping trade is demonstrated by the fact that the number of vessels built in the empire in 1906 was 760, of 398,151 registered tons, against 646 of 310,771 registered tons in 1905, and 535 of 267, 991 registered tons in 1904. Among the vessels built in 1906 were 11 men-of-war of 30,831 registered tons. In addition to the foregoing, there were built in foreign countries, on orders for German firms, 119 vessels of 122, 845 registered tons. WONDERLAND OF THE SIXTEENTH CENTURY BY ..40.. ..LILIPUTIANS.. Under the auspices of the S.I.S. CLUB For the Benefit of the Woman's Club House March 19th Admission 50c EAST TURNER HALL Children's Favorite Toys. A hundred and thirty-two schoolboys of Paris and 72 girls were invited to describe their preferences in the way of toys. Among the former 31 voted for a railway train, 23 for tin soldiers, ten for steam engines, nine for building bricks and eight each for toy typewriters and mechanical horses. Forty girls—a solid majority—declared without hesitation that a doll was superior to any other implement of recreation. The super-child seems, happily, a long way off. Historical Fragment. P. T. Barnum had just added the woolly horse to his wonderful collection of curiosities. "That's an entirely new kink in horses," he said. Regretting that the animal's wool was not finer, so it could show fur, and thus be to some extent a forerunner of the automobile, he instructed his press agent to send the news of his find to his friend, the editor of the New York Herald.

"It'll tell you how to remember it, returned the other. "It's Byrne, sall you have to do next time is to think of fire." This appeared to make an impression where the other name failed and quite unconsciously, as the next guest stepped up, the newcomer was introduced to "Miss Fire."

Chicago.—John Kelly of Buffington, Ind., once was a truck farmer, making a bare living. Now he is an opulent manufacturer of cement blocks with an income of $25 and little outlay. All this is due to the fact that the wind happens to be blowing Kelly's way, and it is not an "ill wind" either. Kelly's home is two blocks from the cement works of the Illinois Steel Company at Buffington, where a $3,000,000 plant grinds slag and converts it into Portland cement. When the wind blows off the lake clouds of cement-laden dust envelop the Kelly home and the Kelly truck farm. The owner, in the hope of saving his garden greens, recently constructed an immense shield of the billboard type at the rear end of his lot, facing the cement plant. When the cement dust comes his way it strikes the board and falls in a pile at the base of the shield. After that all that Kelly has to do is to scoop up some gravel, mix it with the cement and mold the mass into blocks, for which he finds a ready market. "Jim" Macomber H:d Dry Feet. Old "Jim" Macomber lives alone on a small island in Lake Boone, but he by no means shuns society, especially the convivial, says a writer in the Boston Herald. At a farewell celebration given at the close of the past season by one of the summer cottagers "Jim" was an invited guest, and when the party broke up, after midnight, 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 cottagers, who was almost as befuddled as "Jim" was, waded out into the water and climbed into his boat from; 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 discomfited cottager, in desperation, tried to turn attention from himself to "Jim" by remarking: "Jim, I hear 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, if I was, I didn't get my feet wet, by gush." 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.

To the Editor of The Statesman: I am satisfied that some one should make known through the public press the reliable insurance companies and those that are undesirable. As no one has acted up to this time in regard to the matter, I feel it my duty to express what I know in regard to some of the insurance companies operating in this state. Heretofore, our people have depended upon the statements of the solicitor, as to the solidity of the company that he represented, which has resulted in a loss of much money to the people of Denver. The Commonwealth Life Insurance Company was considered good by many of our citizens. It published a capital of $12,000 which was purely a myth. And it is doubtful if during its existence it had resources amounting to $1,000. It sailed under false colors from beginning to end, which undoubtedly accounts for its early failure. I understand that the Colorado Mutual Benefit Association is operating along similar lines. And while it pretends to be a fraternal order, it solicits and accepts both black and white as members. It is considered a worse institution than the Commonwealth ever was, and the insurance commissioner will in the near future investigate the concern, and will undoubtedly put it out of business, unless it complies strictly with the fraternal laws. I am willing to recommend any good reliable company, but from now on, I propose through the press to warn all our people against fake concerns. D. D. COLE. Pastor People's Presbyterian Church.

Russian Tramp Was Doing the Stunt Worked by the American Poultney Bigelow, who knows Russia well, was describing the Russian muzhik. "The muzhik is naive," he said. "Here is a story that they told about him. "A muzhik of Moscow boarded the Petersburg train and in due time the conductor came and asked for his ticket. "I have no ticket,' said the muzhik, naively. "‘No ticket?' cried the conductor. 'Then off you go, you scoundrel, at the very next station.' "And at the next station, accordingly, the muzhik was put off with a half dozen thumps in the ribs. "He waited till another Petersburg train came along. he boarded this train, too, and at the next station, with more thumps in the ribs, he was again put off. "Undaunted, he boarded the third train and a third time he was beaten and put off. "A passenger who alighted at the same place was interested in the muzhik, and said sympathetically: "'Where is it you are going, my friend?" "The muzhik with a patient smile replied: "'To St. Petersburg, if my ribs will stand it.'" NOT THAT KIND OF TIES. Youth Unaware of Nature of Job He Asked For. About 20 years ago, when I was in Spokane, Wash., a young fellow was sent there from Boston by his father for his health, and, incidentally, to make his fortune, says a writer in the Boston Herald. He worked at his trade as a tailor for his health and gambled for his fortune Needless to say, he lost both, for, at that age, he being about 19, he was a delicate youth. His money and job giving out about the same time, he looked around for something to do. Chancing to pass an employment office, he saw on the blackboard, "Tie-makers wanted, 12½ cents apiece." He walked in, and addressed himself to the man behind the desk, a big, raw-boned specimen, with a fierce mustache. "I see you want tie-makers, sir," he said. "Yes, we do. sonny; but don't you think you are rather too light for the job?" "Oh, no," replied the young man. "I can sew." "Sew," the other roared. "Why, great Scott! kid, these are railroad ties!" Friend of Freedom Dead. Carl Joubert, one of the most trenuous 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. P.

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.

KEEP YOUR DESK CLEAN. Business Untidiness Sign of Lack of Order and Concentration. “There's one piece of advice,” said the senfor partner, “that I'd like to give every young man taking a busi- ness position with a desk attached to it. It’s this: Keep your desk clean, What I mean by having a desk clean is keeping everything pos- sible off it except that which is re- lated to the matter in hand. I've observed in my time a good many men in their offices, and I can say that with very few exceptions the real men of affairs are those who are free from clutter. “With a lot of paper in front of you, {t's almost a certainty that some hour fn the day you're going to be flustered and very likely jt will be just when you want a clear head.

Such a collection not only Indicates a lack of order, but also a sign that nervy ousness may be expected from the man in the chair. What with filing cabinets and other dovices no excuse can be offered nowadays for confu sion. “A well ordered desk means a well ordered mind—a mind taking up one thing at a time and giving it the Proper attention.

Not many months ago the hotels of Denver furnished practically no employment for Negroes. One and another has made place for us as porters, bell boys and waiters, the latest being bell boys at the Albany. As it has been remodeled, this hotel is exemplary of the best in the Rocky Mountain region and the sixteen boys who have been put to work will have opportunity not alone for themselves but of paving the way for crews to be put on at competing hotels. It is the working out of the commercial principle that the man who delivers the goods will get the preference, the man who delivers the cheapest service that is at the same time good, that commands employment. Negroes seeking hotel employment in the West suffer the handicap of limited numbers from which to secure proper hands and the responsibility resting on us is therefore the greater. We hope the bell boys will make good. The establishment of a free soup house in Denver has served to demonstrate the wonderful closeness and fellow feeling of our people in the matter of caring for our needy ones. Out of four hundred fed at this place each day, not three are colored. Yet we work for the lowest daily wage. We are the first to lose out in times of financial stringency like these. It is pleasing to know that we have the power of ourselves to tide over our days of misfortune and do not become public charges. Our poverty at least does not go begging of the whites. This condition gives ground for hope that some day we will cling together for industrial opportunity as we do now for food and shelter. Mrs. J. Hall is on the sick list.

SUNDAY ALLIANCE Closely following Raymond Clark's paper on "Lincoln, The Emancipator," Mr. James Jerrold Mannuel produced one of the best papers on "The Life and Deeds of Frederick Douglass" that has been produced in the Alliance in many years. The ideals to be gained which the writer set were so enabling and inspiring that their fitness will long impress the hearers of this address. The portrayal of his object, condition and its surrounding environments, the utter hopelessness of a man ever emerging from such chaotic sufferings, the indomnitable will that characterized his ever rising step toward intellectuality so doggedly pursued cannot ever remain green in the memory of all the young men and women, as a stimulating beacon light to guide the despairing to the royal road of prosperity, learning and success. His various and many vicisin his struggle as a slave with its insults, taunts, etc., and then the new conditions immediately confronting him after his freedom, always appeared to the great man but stepping stones to higher and loftier things. Space nor time will not permit a careful review of the many scenes of his eventful life so intimately connected with "Uncle Tom's Cabin," John Brown's death and the "Underground Railroad," and the Republican party; but the mention of Wendell Phillips, Garrison Lovejoy and Sumner will serve as a reminder of some of his associates and encouragers. The writer showed him to be the greatest, truest and lovliest character ever lived, which made his never-failing manhood, courage and honesty to God, race and himself stand out like the stars in the heavens. A defender everywhere, before all persons on all subjects that touched the Negroe's interest. It was so wholesome to live even a few moments Sunday with that great soul which completely thrilled the audience to be real and true men and women. It was a great day witnessed by a great paper. The program—The piano duett by Mrs. F. L. Faulkner and Prof. Lev L. McGruder, from a classic point, was almost faultlessly rendered and elicited tremendous applause. After which came the short pointed and very appropriate remarks of the president, followed by a solo sweetly and artistically sung by Miss Carrie Joseph. J. W. Jackson was the chairman of the program committee and deserves great honor for the success of the occasion. Zion Baptist Church MONDAY EVENING FEB. 24, '08 Richard B.
