DENVER, COLORADO, FRIDAY FEBRUARY 28, 1908 ing Democracy. With Tillman and Vardaman in the lead and Southern congressmen seeking election upon their promise to nullify the war amendments, God help the Negro race if it deserts its standard this year. REVENGE SHOULD NOT LEAD US Colored Republicans, we have not all gone Democratic. Speak up! Trust thyself; every heart vibrates to that iron string. Accept the place the divine providence has found for you, the society of your contemporaries, the connection of events. Great men have always done so, and confided themselves child-like to the genius of their age, betraying their perception that the absolutely trustworthy was seated at their heart, working through their hands, predominating in all their being. And we are now men, and must accept in the highest mind the same transcedent destiny; and not minors and invalids in a protected corner, not cowards fleeing before a revolution, but guides, redeemers, and benefactors, obeying the Almighty effort and advancing on Chaos and the Dark.—Emerson. Peace and Prosperity NEW PASTOR INSTALLED AT CENTRAL It is so easy to criticise, to tear down, that it is not remarkable that this year, the opposition to the Republican party has by fair and foul means won many Negroes to their cause. The Statesman Believes in the destiny of the Republican party. Not all members of that party are kindly disposed to us, but the great bulk of our friends are allied with it, and our hope lies with it rather than with Democracy. To the end that it may win success at the polls, we offer this space for contributions from our readers bearing on the political situation, with only the usual restrictions of size, legibility, etc. Pastor Installed—Members Pledge Loyalty and Support. Being crowded on the inside till standing room was held at a great premium, with the hallway packed and jammed and a large crowd gathered on the outside perchance to see or hear the exercises then carried on within is the spectacle that Central Baptist church presented. There is now such an era of good feeling between the denominations that all kinds and classes crowd the various churches when their events happen. So it was Sunday with the crowd and such a grand meeting was experienced that both memory of the spiritual and fraternal benefit will loathe to give it up as a sweet remembrance of the installation. An excellent program was had, in which both saint, sinner and friends avowed their friendship, loyalty, support and success to not only Central Baptist church, but to the incoming pastor. Such a large demonstration was no doubt pleasing to Rev. Beckham, whose genial disposition and straight- This year there is added to the usual appeal of the charlatan, under pay of the Democrats, playing the traitor for personal advantage, indignation of honest Negroes over the sins of omission and commission by the Republican party. That they speak the truth for many is sufficient reason for taking a radical position. But there are times when it is the courageous part to stand fast. Mistakes of one administration cannot be great enough to dim the luster of the achievements of generations. It would be in the highest degree reprehensible and childish for us to desert the party at the first signs of lukewarmness when all that has been done in the country for us has come through it. By no means would we have the Negroes vote on dead and gone issues, but who is so foolish as to choose avowed enemies over friends who for the time are too engrossed with other things to maintain their usual interest in us? It is cheap clap-trap in some, rank treason in others, when Negroes assert that they will vote for Bryan in preference to Roosevelt. Let such a decision prevail and our race will have demonstrated beyond all question of doubt that it has not brains enough to meet the emergencies of citizenship. It will literally throw away its future in achieving a petty revenge. This year 1908 will set the seal upon our citizenship and enfranchisement. Either misanthropy and pessimism will blind our vision to the advantage we have under Republicanism, or discretion and foresight will show us that in a white man's country we ought not expect forever to be a political question, and the failure of the party to make us an issue does not justify us in help- NINETEENTH YEAR FIVE CENTS A COPY forward manner will win to him a host of true friends. A nice collection was taken up. All the local ministers were out together with one or two visiting brethren, especially Rev. Hardy of Pueblo. ALLIANCE SCORES ANOTHER SUCCESS SUNDAY. As usual, Sunday brought out a large congregation to hear Mr. Watson speak on "Industry., which subject was not only handled skillfully but intelligently. Many good points were brought out by the speaker, demonstrating that the possibilities of any man depend wholly upon his efforts; that possibilities when once made known make opportunities and opportunities make new. The future is so bright for the thorough-going, industrious boy, so welcoming to the man of one industry who concentrates upon that alone. Rev. Ira Alzamon Lucas made some very creditable points, to which the whole audience silently assented. The program was good and is getting better every Sunday. Sunday promises to be a very interesting day as much business will be transacted. THE OLD RELIABLE PRESCRIPTION PHARMACIST L. L. McMAHAN 19th and Arapahoe Street, Formerly Ideal Drug Store.

Other contributors get economical and write their news on such small pieces of paper that they become lost among the larger sheets on which such matter is usually written. It is not often that matter is intentionally omitted where some good reason does not exist. Therefore persons will do well to conform to the easy regulations which govern matter for newspapers. Don't cuss the editor. Just look and see if you are not at fault. THE STATESMAN, DENVER, COLORADO. Uncle Allen. "I see," quoth Uncle Allen Sparks, "that my old friend Mr. Rockefeller says he's a socialist "in a sense." Well, maybe he is, but when it comes to dollars, by George, he's about the biggest individualist I know of!" Noble Birth. It is no exaggeration to say that the vast majority of peerages are in their origin associated with memories not of honor but of shame.—London Truth. Feathers. The feathers used in millinery, taken from live birds, are the ostrich feathers. Feathered skins used in millinery, such as the feathers of sea gulls, are taken from the dead birds. Bad for the Bluffer. When the currency is colored slate, brown, green, blue, yellow, pink and white many a man who now takes so much pride in flashing his roll of $1 notes will be a miserable being.

We will never have universal peace until each nation is satisfied with the piece it has.—Judge. Unhappiness. James—The attitude of unhappiness is not only painful, it is mean and ugly. More Salty Than Sea Water. The water of the natural brine springs of Droitwich is 12 times stronger than sea water. About 70 per cent. of all the camphor made is used in the manufacture of celluloid. Mrs. Tamar Anderson of Hammonton, N. J., used a hot flat iron on an intruder and he fled. Cattle Ticks. A report issued from the department of agriculture states that the annual loss occasioned through the cattle ticks is in the neighborhood of $100,000,000, which is equal to about ten per cent of the value of the cattle. The quality of the animals is the lowest and the loss is greatest in the regions where the natural conditions without the tick should produce the finest cattle with the least loss. They War on Each Other. What a pugnacious community it is that inhabits the sea! All the creatures in it live on each other, and the whole extent of that vast body of water is a slaughter house, where the strong prey on the weak constantly. There is no other way for them to sustain life, but doesn't it seem queer that nature should have ordained such a state of things? Obeying Infunctions. "My son, have you obeyed my advice to be up and doing?" "Yes, father." "How have you followed it out?" "I've been up against it and doing everybody I can."

In order to avoid the blunt word "mad," many euphemisms are resorted to in the English language. While "lunacy" refers to the supposed influence of the moon, "insane" simply means unhealthy; "imbecile" signifies only weak, and "crazy," meaning decrepit, almost corresponds to the slang "cracked." "A tile off," "not all there," "a bee in his bonnet" are only a few of the efforts slang has made to carry off the sad fact with an uneasy joke. "Lunatic asylum," for the old 'madhouse,' represents not only a great improvement in the institution but also in the term used to designate it. Requested One Favor Eugene Spuller was minister of public instruction when Casimir-Parler was president of France. When the doorkeeper brought him his letters one morning Spuller said to him: 'Were you not supposed to be or duty last night at 11:30 o clock?' 'Yes, sir.' "And you were not there?" 'That is correct," replied the doorkeeper, "but I have a sick mother, your excellency. I wished to visit her." "Quite proper," returned Spuller, "and I hope your mother will soon recover. But I would like to ask you one favor. If you go to visit your mother once more, please have the mindness not to lock me in my office. I had to spend the night at this desk because I could not get out!" --- MRS. M. A. HOLLEY Scalp & Hair Treatment She is now prepared to do the same work as is done in the originator's parlors.

The harvest festival was being held in Old Windsor parish church, England, and a verse in the Psalm, "Thou makest darkness and it is night," had just been reached, when all the electric lights went out. A number of candles were borrowed from neighboring houses, and these were fixed upon the pews, so that the service might be concluded. Heart Interest. Men love naturally all that comes from the heart, all that is great, all that dazzles, and even all that is strange. A heroic act or a single act of generosity moves them infallibly and provokes their enthusiasm. They see these acts; they do not see the justice in the heart of the just. Jules Simon. Dress by Inspiration. Painful results are produced by the fondness of women for clothing themselves in anything they happen to know others are wearing. The same forms and colors are repeated indefinitely without any regard for their fitness to the wearer. Truly intelligence in dress comes by inspiration alone and cannot be bought. Was Clothed in Tobacco. A priest has been arrested at Agincourt, on the Franco-Belgian frontier, for smuggling. His luggage was full of cigars, and when he was stripped he was found to be wearing around his body a layer of tobacco and cigars over an inch in thickness. The man was clothed in tobacco, and 2,000 cigars were taken from the layer. Game. Let us all with one accord get busy in the matter of protecting gamebut let us all at the same time with one accord get busy in the matter of squelching the fools who think they know all about it, yet know nothing beyond the political side of it.—N. Y. Press. Keeping Goat In Stable. There is an old fashioned precaution of keeping a goat in a stable. Supposing always that the animals are loose, the goat will leave the stable on the outbreak of fire, and the horses will follow the goat when no amount of persuasion from man will get the terrified creatures to budge. His Great Idea. Gilbert, the small son of a minister, was one day trying to construct a church with his building blocks, but found he hadn't enough blocks. "Say, papa," he inquired gravely, "can't you hold up your congregation for funds to finish my church?" Baths In Schools. The school board of Pittsburg, Pa., has decided to install a system of baths in one of its school buildings. This will be for the use of the school children during the day, while the mothers will be permitted to bring children after school hours. Steplechase for Women.

Miss Eva Hopkins, our last year’s “sweet girl graduate,” and one of the ‘most charming and sweetest of girls, ‘is responsible for a feeling of inspira- tion that has been renewed in the hearts of the members of the Search- light Club. At a recent meeting she read an article of her own composing on “Perseverance,” which met with unanimous approval and appreciation. Miss Hopkins is the youngest of the club members, the “baby of the club,” she is lovingly known, and her paper for its depth of thought and beauty of expression, surpassed that of many written by those who are years her senior, and who have had the privi- lege of wider experience along the jine of literature.

LOGAN, Manager DOG PROVED ITSELF HERO. Gave Up Life in Attempt to Stop Runaway Teain. Near Pittsford a dog was killed in & determined and intelligent effort to stop a runaway team. Conrad Hoe- nick, a farmer, left his team standing near a railroad track. Two little boys were in the wagon. The horses were frightened by 4 passing train and ran away with the lads. One of the boys was thrown out and severely mjured. The other remained in the wagon, and while the speed of the frightened team increased every sec- ond he made frantic efforts to reach the lines and stop them. As the horses passed Frank Tous ley’s place the latter's dog, which car- ried the mail and dic many little tasks about the farm and had almost human intelligence, ran out, and seeing the predicament of the hoy, attempted to catch hold of the dang ling lines. Like a human being the animal, without a sound, ranged him- self into line to seize the reins, and, tm 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.

The best farce comedy that ever has been shown to a Denver audience by local talent was the "Isles of Pingapoo" at East Turner hall last Thursday night, produced by McDaniel, Gash and Brown. The excellence of the production was evidenced by the fact that though it was nearly midnight when it concluded, there was not a dull moment and not a person left the hall or showed signs of unrest. The sketch was written by Otis McDaniel and the special scenery used in its production was painted by him. Both cannot be praised too highly. The music for the evening was highclass and was rendered by the Progre ssive orchestra. Much comment was made upon its excellence and a continuation of its present service will mean popularity for it. H. A.

PAGE 2 Rapid Transit in Ocean Travel Is the Popular Demand of the Among the advantages claimed for the increasingly popular passenger ships of large size and moderate speed should be mentioned the fact that many of them are showing in regular service a rate of speed which is fully as high as that which they maintained on their trials in smooth water, states the Scientific American. Moreover, because of their great weight and momentum and their moderate speed they are not so greatly affected by adverse weather conditions as the faster ships and their coming and going is marked by great regularity and a close adherence to the sailing schedule. If a 23-knot ship runs into a heavy head sea it must make a much greater reduction in its speed than is necessary in a vessel of say 15 to 17 knots speed; and, consequently it will be more liable to miss a tide and suffer a night's detention, say at Quarantine, New York, than a ship of the slower type. As showing how the big vessels of the intermediate type are running well up to their trial speeds, we may take the case of the Amerika, which in a recent passage from Cherbourg to Sandy Hook of 3,140 miles maintained an average speed of 17.31 miles an hour, while on its preceding easterly passage it covered a distance of 3,088 miles in seven days, six hours and 24 minutes, which works out as an average speed of 17.71 miles an hour. The high-speed liner, however, is not in any danger of being forced out of the field by its slower sisters, as witness the fact that the North German Lloyd has under construction a twin ship to the $23\frac{1}{2}$-knot Kaiser Wilhelm der Grosse, and that the Cunard company will shortly put a pair of $24\frac{1}{4}$ to 25 knot vessels in service. So rapid is the increase in the number of those who can afford to pay the highest rates for Atlantic travel and so great is the demand for rapid transit on the part of those to whom time is an object that we look to see a limited number of 25-knot vessels built from time to time for the Atlantic service. The majority of the trans-Atlantic liners of the future, however, will undoubtedly be of the Amerika and the Baltic type, for not only are these the ships upon which the companies depend for the greater part of their revenues but because of their steadiness, absence of vibration and the more lengthy sea trip which they afford, they are becoming increasingly popular with the travelling public. Spindle-Shanked Men of Today. "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. Nowadays if a man has any flesh it's under his waistband." THE STATESMAN, DENVER, COLORAD PLANS LONG YACHT TOUR. Pittsburg Man Building Boat to Take Him Around the World. New York.—W. Harry Brown is to build the largest three-masted fore- and-aft schooner yacht in the world. It is to have auxiliary engines and is designed for a voyage which Mr. Brown expects to make a year from next spring. He will sail up the Amazon and explore several of the island groups of the South Pacific. The tour will then extend to Oriental waters and across the Atlantic, the entire voyage requiring three years. The boat will cost more than $800,000. She will measure 197 feet 6 inches over all, with a 150-foot water line and a beam of more than 32 feet. The vessel will be built of steel and will have a displacement of 800 tons and a coal capacity of 200 tons, sample to carry her across the Pacific. There will be a library and music rooms, smoking and lounging rooms and state room suites, with lavatories and baths. She will also be equipped with small arms and rapid-fire guns. Mr. Brown is one of the wealthiest members of the New York Yacht club and lives at Pittsburg, where he is interested in steel and mining properties. He is married and has two children, and will be accompanied on his world tour by his family. The yacht is to be called Visitor II. Schools to Teach Milling. Recently several schools have been established in Russia, modeled largely after the more successful schools in Germany, for the education of millers. The course of instruction, besides the Russian language, includes the following subjects: Mathematics, physics, electro-technics, technology, chemistry, machine building, milling, mill engineering, drawing, bookkeeping. The schools are divided into three grades or classes, and the pupils spend one year in each class, the complete course extending over three years. Pupils who attend a milling school for two years are obliged to serve only the same period in the army, instead of serving the customary four years, while students who have passed through the complete course are obliged to serve only one year in the army.—Consular Reports Lye Ruina Eyeglasses. A Ludlow woman learned by experience what any chemist could have told her, that lye will ruin eyeglasses, says the Kansas City Star. The woman was making soap and splashed a drop or two of the mixture on her glasses. She took a cloth and endeavored to clean them, but was amazed to find that all the colors of the rainbow were reflected in the lenses. No amount of washing would remove the colors, and it was necessary to get new lenses. More Than Princely Pr. This story of Prince Louis 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. "Yeah it 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 Hohenzollern speaking of 'I and God,' but it remains for a Battenberg to leave out God!" Undertaker Q. J.

All Creeds and Denominations Cooperate. In the words of one of the pioneer members of Shorter church, that the present revival was one of the most enthusiastic, realizing and helpful meetings ever held in the annals of the church. The plans were so perfectly instituted, arranged and so successfully followed that the meeting was a success before it began. People came with cards full of names of unsaved friends, special prayer was offered up in their behalf and one by one the persons whose names were on the cards unconsciously but yet impelled by a divine force, were seen at the altar claiming, rejoicing and then living the Christ, the only true principle of life. Not much personal work was done in this revival as hitherto a more of a concentration of their righteousness, valuable time was not spent in argument with sinners and results were amazingly effective. But if success could be attributed to any one thing, it would be that of those religious, fiery and inspiring cottage prayer meetings after a long fast and unquenched thirst and determined efforts on the part of the Christians to show their spiritual strength. Nothing could have stimulated a liveller interest, no action of their sincerity was more convincing and no other manner could have awakened the spiritual enthusiasm as did their concentrated prayers, efforts and united action. In the community the spiritual effect is noticeable, as has been in the past, dances and gay entertainments have been suspended because of these meetings, the skating rink has now one night in the week, and the homes, firesides and lives have been helped, brightened and mothers', fathers' and sisters' hearts have been made to rejoice because of the choosing of Christ by their dear ones. A different complexion in general is thrown over everything and the revival will be one long to be remembered and cherished by all. Quarterly meeting at Shorter A. M. E. church Sunday, March 1, 1908.

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.

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." African Hcusewife'a Trial.

Like Samuel of old when but a youth He heard a voice that woke in him a lyre, And looking up embraced the heavenly muse That thrilled his heart with its poetic fire. He sung of love, of birds and sighing winds, And religion, best and noblest of themes; Depicting life, in midst of sordid sin, The loveliest vision of a poet's dream. He sung of babbling brooks, of wooded vales, Displaying with a genius ease and grace Plantation scenes, so vividly and real, In accents of his own melodious race. Thus, like a star in midnight skies, He arose upon the pinace of fame; Till those who quote no merit in his kind, Stood in awe and wonder at his name. He sleeps, but the fire of holy muse Still burns in the sacred urn of time, In one eternal blaze diffuse To yonder's bright celestial clime. Sleep, sweetly, noble bard—alas— The trials of thy life is o'er. No baffled hope or tempest blast, Or sorrow ever reach thee more. Sleep, sweetly, in thy woodland bed. Sweetly, there with thy kindred dwell, When she who feels a mother's drear, With tearful prayers her anguish tell. There often will the traveler stop In pensive reverie and gaze On the marked and hallowed spot In which thine earthly casement lays. For think ye when this life is done, The soul lives not. Who leaves this clay? Then look, faint heart, beyond the tomb, To where the spirit wings its way. For there the weary are at rest. Sorrow and sin are all forgiven. In spotless robes of righteousness They sing an endless theme of Heaven. Sleep on, till He who died to save Shall say to Death, thy reign is o'er.

Eight o'clock, eighth inst., -found us aboard the Colorado & Southern THE STATESMAN, DENVER, COLORADO. train destined to Fort Collins, where we arrived safely at 11:20 a.m. The weather was pleasant as we could desire. We were agreeably surprised in finding a city of 10,000 inhabitants and many evidences of prosperity. Fort Collins is 65 miles north of Denver, situated on the Colorado & Southern railroad. There are not many of our people there, but they appear to be industrious and intelligent. Sunday, the ninth, was a day to be remembered in Fort Collins. Two interesting services were held at the residence of Brother Jas. Clay, where we organized a Mission of the African Methodist Episcopal church with ten members. The evening service was held at the residence of Brother Andrew Goodall, with whom we sojourned during our brief stay in the city. Mrs. Jennie Goodall is the conference missionary who was instrumental in making arrangements looking to the organization. The interest our people are taking in the work is remarkable. Most all the colored residents attended the services, and expressed their intention of assisting the upbuilding of the society. Brother Shepherd, Mrs. Goodall and Mrs. Shepherd were appointed solicitors of funds with which to erect a house of worship in the near future. God bless the work is our earnest prayer. REV. JAS. H. HUBBARD, P. E., 2953 Stout Street. Dian t work. "I wonder why it is," remarked one of the two men who had just lunched, turning to speak to the other, "that they always have pretty cashiers at these restaurants." But the pretty cashier, though she blushed and smiled, did not fall to detect the Canadian quarter he threw down in payment of his check. Accuracy. The fqod inspector's wife was looking over her husband's notebook. "George," she said, "how do you pronounce the last syllable of this word 'butterine,'?" "The last syllable," the inspector answered, "is always silent."—St. Louis Globe-Democrat Women Smile at Fortuny's Veils. Prof. Fortuny, known as an esthetic enthusiast, is providing much merriment for the fashionable women of Berlin. He has on exhibition a new feminine costume he has invented and which is known as "Fortuny's Veils." The veils are of silk chiffon from five to six yards long and two yards wide. Their colors are light rose, violet and blue. On the chiffon are painted Greek vases and other ornamental Greek designs made from articles unearthed in ancient Greek cities. Fortuny wants to clothe his contemporaries with these veils worn over ordinary apparel to supplement rather than supplant what is being worn. He argues that veils, when beautifully draped, give an individuality to a woman's appearance, that the art of draping will be brought to such a state of perfection that the modern women will surpass her ancient Greek sisters in the art of dressing. He shows also little gold pins and broaches of Greek design to hold the veil together. Cigars and ader We are now pleased to announce to the public that we are now locating at 2057 1/2 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 bonnets of all kinds.

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. J. B. MOORE, PROP.

"I saw a woman standing in front of a big display window in a downtown store the other day," says an observer, "with a little pad in her hand sketching something. I afterward learned that she is one of the high-priced dressmakers in town, and that her success is due more than anything else to her ability to sketch off any gown that one of her customers takes a fancy to and reproduces it."—Cleveland Plain Dealer. Chinese Faith in Ginseng. Many of the Chinese believe that when all other remedies fail and death is at hand ginseng has the power to bring back health and longevity; hence, when they feel the need of it they will pay fabulous prices for certain kinds of roots. A root to be really valuable as a commodity must come from the mountains of Kirin, or be reputed to have come from there. Convenience in Travel. For women who travel away from home, especially if there is a baby, a home washing apparatus is most convenient. This consists of a small tub and a tiny galvanized iron washboard. These may be placed in the sink and the dainty lingerie and baby clothes washed out without any trouble. The articles may be washed as they become soiled. Greediness Rebuked. At dinner, at a country hotel, Toole was sitting next to a gentleman who had helped himself to an extravagantly large piece of bread. Toole took it up and began to eat a slice from it. "Sir," said the indignant gentleman, "that is my bread." "I beg a thousand pardons, sir," replied the actor, "I mistook it for the loaf." Don't Rub it in. Commiserate with your brother motorist whom you find knelling in the dust of the road belaboring a punctured tire. The nail manufacturer is a busy man, and there may be another nail farther down theike for you. Pride goes before a puncture, and the haughty man is generally the first to find that he is out of gasoline. Irrigation in Australia. Irrigation has probably been practiced more extensively in Australia than anywhere else on the globe. In New South Wales alone more than 2,000,000 acres have been reclaimed by the development of the ground water. Our Times. It seems hard to be generous, not easy even to be just, to the times upon which our lot is cast. Yet much that we now look upon as prosaic and perhaps decry as unreal, if read as history would enchain our imaginations, if spoken as prophecy would stir our very souls.—Dora Green well.

His grace was much interested, and on leaving for London one day, left instructions that he was to be informed of its welfare.
