Not even the coolness of the weather could keep the people back. There was dancisg, boating, fish frying, riding the merry-go-round and frolic of all kinds. The Harris orchestra furnished the music and the Triangle boys, Hinkle Clark and Taylor, provided the entertainment. The park is better equipped this year than ever and the pleasure is greater. Denver Has a Responsive People State Historian & Natural History Society SATURDAY JUNE 20 1908 Denver Ha Respons A COMPLIMENT TO DENVER MINISTERS. The hearty response that is made to the appeals of the various churches in times of financial rallies, brings to mind how different Denver is from many cities. Two months ago, the leading Methodist church of this city exceeded its request by raising in an Easter rally more than a thousand dollars, and on last Sunday the leading Baptist church did likewise by also raising more than a thousand dollars. These two examples of how the churches are treated, show clearly what estimate is placed upon them by not only their own congregations but by the whole people, worldly as well as professed Christian. The cause they stand for is the same in this city as in others, they incorporate many classes of men here, the same as they do elsewhere, their burdens of debt are of a kind with the churches of other cities, and so since there appear no differences between Denver and other cities in these respects, it must be that the people here have a more wholesome respect for those who stand in the van of the religious army. Over many years there has been no disgraceful publicity connected with our ministers. They have varied in ability, but have preserved a high average of moral rectitude. The beneficent results of the good will engendered in this way has reached all the churches. Two have property clear of indebtedness, paid off a short while ago; all of them escape the usual court adjudication of pastor's salaries; church trials and odorous airings of their dissensions are at a minimum, and in all respects the churches of our city, members and ministers, so report themselves as to deserve the very heartiest good will of those outside. To this we consider in some measure is due the financial success they have, and much as we congratulate them upon their success, we are far happier that they deserve success. deserve success. FIVE CENTS A COI Y s a ive People LA JUNTA, COLO. Children's Day was appropriately celebrated last Sunday by the church and Sunday school of Hubbard Chapel A. M. E. church. The pastor, Rev. W. H. Prince, B. D., delivered a special sermon to the parents, at the morning service. Though there were but few in attendance, every word which fell from the lips of this man of God was golden. Those who fail to attend these special occasions miss that which would inspire their hearts and animate their souls. May God awaken us to meet these opportunities, for lost opportunities never return. The pastor returned Saturday from Pueblo with blowing account of the progress and increased interest of the District Conference and Sunday School Convention. Sunday evening the children's exercises were grand, which ended with a beautiful tableaux—angelic scene. The altar was wrapped with white bunting, overlaid with green leaves and vines, and a large bunch of flowers upon each corner, and the electric bulbs, hanging over head were covered with light red tissue paper, the light gleaming through which casted a golden hue over the rostrum, presenting a scene of artistic beauty. Too much credit cannot be given Mrs. Mary McKinney, Mrs. Addie Wilson and Mrs. W. H. Prince, committees, for their excellent programme. Little Herbert Tyler was awarded the merit prize. Mrs. Mary Badgett returned Sunday afternoon from Kansas, where she has been attending her sick mother. She reports her mother still quite ill.

WILL TAYLOR. Prop., 911 Eighteenth street The literature of the kitchen sometimes sheds a light on the traits of historical personages. For example, it is not interesting to read in a new book of recollections of the origin of that rather agreeable dish of bread-crumbs, fruit and spices known as "apple charlotte." It appears that the thrifty wife of George III. invented the pudding in order to use up the weekly palace crusts. Truth and Honesty. Truth and honesty are powerful allies in helping a man to wage the conflict successfully. Truthfulness has never to hang his head in shame, whether defending the right or making apology for the fault it acknowledges. As for honor, as long as it remains manhood always keeps it company; where the one is there will the other be found. Links of Eternal Life. We cannot put into the language of our limited life any satisfactory or adequate picture of that which transcends all our experience in the way that this thought of a great common source and sustainer of life does. But we can order our lives about this as their center; we can live as if the universe was held together by the golden bands of love and law. Spanish Plow. In Spain about the only kind of plow in use is the primitive wooden affair with one handle and a tongue. To this is hitched a pair of small oxen or of mules yoked up like oxen. The driver rests his right foot on a rear extension to keep the plow from jumping out of the ground, steadying himself by touching his left foot when he seems likely to lose his balance.

'Tis then the best inspiration is caught—fresh and pure from the Elysian fields of heaven. Famed Early Risers. The most successful men and women in the fields of literature, science, and art, those who have contributed most to the world's greatness and happiness, were noted early risers; they went early to bed and arose with the sun, drawing light and inspiration from the fountain of light itself.

TOLL TO NEPTUNE HUMAN LIFE IS THE COST OF NAVAL EFFICIENCY. Officers Declare Accidents Unavoidable If Men and Ships Are to Be Kept Up to the Proper Standard. Within recent months there have been serious accidents to naval vessels belonging to several nations. Although they have been due to a variety of differing causes, they may be divided, broadly speaking, into two classes: due to errors in maneuvering, resulting in collisions, and those due to explosions in the ammunition stores. Naval officers say that such accidents are merely so many manifestations of fate; that a sailor takes chances when he goes to sea, and that once in a while he is bound to have a chance against him. The navy which keeps its ships and its personnel up to an efficiency nearest to that which would actually hold in war-time is the navy most likely to have accidents, they say. And in witness of this they point to the British navy, with its ceaseless maneuvers, in fog, rain and snow, and the frequent target practice on American men-o'-war. "It is not fair to ascribe accidents such as those which have visited the English men-o'-war to neglect of duty, in any way or fashion," said an officer. "And when you say psychologic ad influence, you mean, in effect, that they permitted something to step between their duties and themselves. This is not so, I am sure. A man who goes to sea—particularly a man who goes to sea on a warship, is bound to have to run chances. "If a nation keeps its navy up to a point of maximum efficiency it is bound to be in more danger than if it lay, like the Chinese navy, swinging at anchor in some home port. In the English navy they are great on maneuvers. I don't know that they have any more than we do—I should say they probably have about the same number, and of no more stringent a character. "But, anyhow, they make a specialty of sending out their ships in all kinds of weather, fair and stormy. The English channel is a maze of tricky crosscurrents, and the coasts of the British Isles are often obscured by thick fog blankets. The weather in that part of the world is not a bit better than it ought to be, which does not make it an easy maneuvering ground. As far as that goes, I have been on summer practice cruises with one of the Atlantic squadrons, along the New England coast when, as we crept from port to port, we were constantly surrounded by a mantle of fog. "It's six of one and half a dozen of the other. No matter how highly you train men, how careful they are, or how little chance they take, once in a while something must happen. We are training our sailors to be as good marksmen as any in the world, and keeping them rigidly to that state of ability, but we can't do it without risking lives and losing them. You can like every possible precaution and till there are chances of accidents. all them sheer visitations of Providence if you will—guard against them closely, but yet they are apt to THE STATESMAN, DENVER, COLORADO. He Was Also an Expert. A strange story comes from one of the Balkan states, where commercial morality is still in its infancy. At a recent banquet given at the home of the prime minister a distinguished diplomat complained to his host that the minister of justice, next to whom he was sitting, had taken his watch. The prime minister said: "Ah, he shouldn't have done that. I will get it back for you." Sure enough, towards the end of the evening the watch was returned to its owner. "And what did he say?" asked the guest. "Sh-h! He does not know I have got it back," said the prime minister. Line Almost Joins Oceans. In Chili railroad construction on the cross-continental line, between Valparaiso and Buenos Ayres, has advanced so that a ride of four hours in a stage is the only interruption in a continuous railway journey from the Pacific to the Atlantic ocean. The Chillan congress also has provided for a longitudinal line paralleling the coast. Peru is making great advances in railroad construction, and Ecuador has joined in constructing railways following the general Pan-American route. The transoceanic line in Guatemala was opened for traffic in last January, and Costa Rica is finishing a line from ocean to ocean. Widows' Pensions. In his annual report President Elliot has this to say about the pensions provided for the widows of professors: "As a resource for a widow in cases of sudden disability or death, the possibility of a Carnegie pension is already a great comfort to men of small means who give their lives to the higher education. It does not relieve men who can get their lives insured from the duty of so doing, but there are some men with families who cannot get their lives insured upon any terms, and others whose expenses are so near their incomes that they cannot save the money for premiums on any adequate amount of insurance." Kipling's Town Monument. The naming of a new Canadian town after Mr. Kipling puts him on a level, in this respect, with Shakespeare. Not counting our own Shakespeare cliff at Dover, we find just one Shakespeare in the atlas, and that in Canada. Dickens scores four times in the United States, and Thackery once. That is to say, they do if we may assume that the places in question were named in honor of the novelists and not after some obscurer individuals. Doubts of this kind increase in the cases of the 30 odd Scotts revealed by the atlas, not to speak of the 50 or 60 Miltons. But a good many of these and of the 20-odd Byrons must certainly attest literary enthusiasm, whatever we may think of the two American Bacons. — London (Eng.) Dally Chronicle. Bismarck Memorial. The Walhalla at Regensburg, which contains the statues of many men who have contributed to the greatness of the German people, will receive an addition next July in the form of a Bismarck memorial. In his order to the Kulturminister directing the addition, the prince regent of Bavaria says that the step would have been taken sooner but for the rule which precludes such recognition until ten years after the death of the great one. The Bismarck memorial will be unveiled on the tenth anniversary of his death. --- Knew All About Profits. In a certain village the minister was in the habit of calling at the school and putting the scholars through their facings. One day he was cross-questioning a boy, when he happened to ask him if there were any prophets nowadays. This was a poser for the youth as well as for the whole class, and a dead silence reigned, till a bright boy, the only son of a pushing tradesman, extended his hand eagerly toward the minister. "Well, my lad, are there any prophets now?" "Yes, sir; small profits and quick returns," was the triumphant response. Heavenly City. Berlin is said to be the quietest city in Europe. Railway engines are not allowed to blow their whistles within the city limits. There is no loud bawling of hucksters, and a man whose wagon gearing is loose and rattling is subject to a fine. The courts have a large discretion as to fines for noise-making. Strangest of all, piano playing is regulated in Berlin. Before a certain hour in the day, and after a certain hour in the night the piano must be silent in that musical city. Even during the playing hours a fine is imposed for mere pounding on the piano. Adds to Rubber Supply. After the recent discovery of a new rubber plant in Cochin-China comes the discovery in Brazil of a new family group of a plant which promises to become a valuable source of rubber, the demand for which for many purposes is constantly increasing. A report of the Royal Botanical garden and museum at Berlin mentions the results of experiments with three new species of Manihot trees, which were discovered on a trip through the forests of the province of Bahal rubber syndicate. Two of these are considered the rubber plants of the future for dry and little fertile regions. Teaching Parrots for Advertising. A new school has been started in the Grand Montrouge district of Paris. It is a school for the teaching of parrots, and specializes in making the birds of commercial value. It has occurred to the manager of the school that a clever parrot may be very useful as an advertiser, and he is at present teaching a number of them to cry aloud the excellence of various products. These birds will later on be hung in cages in prominent positions on the boulevards. The birds are being taught by a phonograph in dark rooms Question for Pedagogues There is considerable discussion going on in some of the eastern states as to whether it is wise to employ all the teachers of a town from the training school of the place. That this would tend to narrow the scope of the schools and put them into a rut seems to be the opinion of those opposed, while another element thinks that a town with a training school should provide for its young women in its schools and should thus provide the schools with trained teachers. Have Ten-Hour Laws That it is necessary to have laws that will establish the maximum number of hours that a woman may be required to work is the sense of the recent decision of the United States supreme court upholding the law of Oregon that ten hours shall constitute the Manners. Manners are not like clothes. It's a bad thing to have two suits of them one for best and one for everyday. Wear your best manners all the time. They suffer more by being put away than by constant use. If you keep your best manners for company they will fit you ill, and your visitor will suspect they were put on for him. Second best clothes may be worn at home, but not second best manners. To whom is it worth while to be courteous if not to the people you love best?—Home Chat. Argentina Railroad Construction. The railroad lines of the Argentine republic have reached the border of Bolivia, 1,200 miles from Buenos Ayres, and as the result of a treaty with Bolivia the Argentine government is making engineering studies for the prolongation of its line to be built by the Speyer-City bank syndicate of New York. In July the New York syndicate will have finished the first section of the Bolivian railway under its contract with the Bolivian government. Cheap Gaa Production. Prof. Blau of Germany has discovered a new process of developing illuminating gas that may be bought by the bottle at the rate of 15 cents a pound. A 22-pound cylinder at 15 cents a pound would give a 50-candle power light for four months used four hours a day. That is to say, the cost would be 1 1-7 cents an hour, or, say, $1.25 a month, or even less.—Brooklyn Eagle. In some parts of the civilized world the fetish or idol which disappeared long ago is coming back, in fact, has already returned, to do duty as a guardian, protector, mascot or whatever one may please to call it. The new idol is in shape according to the fancy of the automobile owner, who places it on the front of the machine to prevent accidents and arrest. These figureheads are all grotesque in style, the most popular being the image of a police officer with watch in hand, a barking cur and a crowing rooster Marital Persiflage. "I must confess," remarked Mrs. Crabbe, "I don't believe there ever was a really perfect man." "Well," replied Mr. Crabbe, "I suppose that's because Eve wasn't made first." "How do you mean?" "Well, if Eve had been made first she would have bossed the job of making Adam."—Philadelphia Press. Poor Companion. Folly is never long pleased with it self.—German Proverb. Capitol Flowers Bloom. The state capitol park's largest flower bed, a strip of tulips 440 feet long, is just commencing to burst into bloom and this latest feature of the park is being much admired. This flower bed has been laid out right at the edge of the plaza which faces the capitol and extends from the center of one wing of the great building to the other, being broken only in the center by the 50-foot-wide walk. It was laid out last fall by Superintendent Rambo, and is a most effective decoration, facing as it does the stately building across a great pavement of concrete 500 feet long by 100 feet wide. The bed contains 4,000 tulips, almost all red, and practically every plant is in bloom.—Philadelphia THE STATESMAN, DENVER, COLORADO.

There can be no high society where conversation is not the chief attrac- tion; and men seldom learn to talk well when not inspired by gifted wom- en. Women are nothing in the social circle who cannot draw out the senti- ments of able men; and a man of genius gains more from the inspira- | tion of one brilliant woman than from | all the bookworms of many colleges.

CAT LOVED BY ALL FELINE THE PET OF NORTH CAROLINA TOWN. Splendid Act of Pussy at Right Moment Always Remembered, and Whole City Mourned at Her Obsequies. When the train crew found that it was "Emma" they had run over, one dark night in Asheville, about ten days ago, they all gathered about the spot in that hats-off attitude which the might have assumed about the grave of a departed great man. Emma was only a cat, but a cat known widely in North Carolina. She had been most tenderly cared for and pampered since the night of the Emma township burglary in 1901, when she saved the life of one man and caused the hanging of two others. One black night a clerk named S. H. Alexander, who slept in the store-and-post office building, was called to the door by loud knocking. On opening it, he was confronted by two masked men, who pointed guns at him and ordered him to open the safe. Alexander was scarcely more than a boy, and he had to obey, though the safe contained a large sum of money. As he knelt on the floor to get at the combination, he revolved in his mind schemes to foil the robbers, but, with those blued barrels trained on his back hair, he decided to reject them all. As the door swung open, one robber laid his revolver on top of the safe and stepped up to see what was inside. Emma, who until then had been viewing things with alarm from behind the stove, chose that moment to act. Using a sugar barrel for a take-off, she leaped at the crouching robber, upset his equilibrium and passed her needle-like claws up and down his face twice or three times. The other robber turned his head in alarm. It was only an instant, but in that instant Alexander had snatched the revolver from the safe and shot the man who was fighting off the cat. The other robber leaped on the clerk and wrestled with him for the smoking revolver. Alexander was beaten on the head and shot in several places; and, when the desperadoes thought he was dead, they made off without stopping for the booty. Neighbors were alarmed by the noise of the firing and scuffling, and a posse was able to start on the trail while it was fresh. Before daybreak it captured not only the two robbers, but two accomplices. All four were sentenced to be hanged, but at the last minute the accomplices got off with life imprisonment. Alexander got well finally. At one time, when it seemed certain that he must die, a girl to whom he was engaged married him. After his recovery the government rewarded his bravery with a place in the postal service. The postmaster, D. J. McLellan, appointed Emma official mouser at the store, with all the privileges and emoluments of the place. When she was run over the trainmen brought her body to the store, and next day she was buried with imposing ceremonies and a funeral which nearly everybody in town attended. She was the mother of 172 kittens, but, so far as is known, only one is alive to-day. That kitten would probably be harder to buy than a child of the same age. GEO. A.

He received his diploma in 1832, was graduated in medicine at the University of Pennsyl- vanja in 1836 and is Princeton's old- est alumnus. He recently passed his ninety-third birthday. Of the 1,287 men graduated from Princeton univer- sity between the years 1832 and 1852, the 20 oldest classes represented by surviving alumni, only 151 are still living. The clases of 1833, 1836, 1837 and 1838 have no survivors. Of these 151 graduates only eight are classed in the records as business men. Impromptu Speeches. Why be ashamed of getting your speeches made for you by another? Your ciothes are made by another— orhy not your speeches? Both, after all, are necessary to a successful par- liamentary career.

So thoroughly was the allotted task performed by these young Englishmen that an 1849 revision of the survey failed to detect the slightest error. The United States government also, as recently as 1901, has caused the Maryland por- tion of the noted boundary line to be again revised. Natural Beauties to Be Preserved. A movement has been started to have the Malibu region in the Santa Monica mountains of California de- clared a national park in order to preserve the prehistoric flora and fauna, found in petrified form, from vandal hands. Geologists have de- clared the range to be the oldest ‘mountain chain in California, and the wealth of priceless fossils found in the different strata bears out the state- ment of the scientists. Little, if any, of the land is valuable for agricultural purposes, while the rugged beauty of the many canyons opening on the Pa- cific ocean is unsurpassed for weird scenic effects. Ear Protection for Gunners. The British admiralty have given at- tention to the question of ear protec- tion during heavy gun firing, and {t has been decided to use plasticine, with the addition of cotton wool, but the form of ear protection to be used fs to be left to the individual choice of officers and men. Plasticine may be supplied to ships and gunnery schools if specially demanded. The addition of 50 to 60 grains of cotton wool has been recommended to insure perfect safety. It is pointed out that the cost of the material is very small and use is desirable in many cases. Little Bobby. Bobby was in love with the monkeys at the Zoo and often teased his fa- ther to buy him one. When a new baby brother came te the house and he saw it for the first time he was in raptures. “Never mind about getting me the monkey now, papa,” he said. Emotional Ralment. There are all sorts of happy clothes. Some hats are one broad grin, some frocks are made to be danced in; some materials are meant to be worn by people who sing about the house; some colors. spell sunshine.—The Queen. Peculiar Scotch Railroads. Scotland possesses several railroad anomalies of which probably the most notable is that of the stations of Mallaig and Kyle, of Lochalsh, which, though only 20 miles apart in a straight line, are separated by no less than 360 miles of rail by the shortest route, viz.: Crianlarich, Balquhidder, Perth and Inverness. Yet another Scotch incongruity is that the nearest railway station to the town of Port Ellen, on the island of Islay, if we ex- cept the smali local line at Campbell- town, is Ballycastle, in Ireland, Lavender Scent for Rooms. Do you know that a few drops of of] of lavender in a silver bow] or orna mental dish of some kind half filled with very hot water, and set in the dining-room just before dinner is served gives a delightful and intangi- ble freshness to the atmosphere? Hos. tesses may use this in the parlors and dressing-rooms when arranging the house for entertaining. The sugges tion is especially advantageous to those occupying small apartmente which are sometimes “stuffy,”—De Mneator. Dog Advance Agent of Train. A traveler waited at a certain Eng- lish provincial town in vain for the much over-due train on the branch line. Again he approached the soll- tary sleepy looking porter and in- quired for the twentieth time, “Isn’t that train coming soon?” At that moment a dog came trotting up the line, and a glad smile illuminated the official’s face. “Ah, yes, sir,” replied the porter. “It'll be getting near now. Here comes the engine-driver’s dog.” Germany’s New Coin. Germany will soon have a new coin of the value of a quarter mark, or 25 pfennigs. In order to distinguish the new piece readily from the 20-pfennig coin now in use, the government has asked for designs with a perforation. Coins with a hole through the center are still in circulation in China and Japan, but their introduction was ob- jected to by some artists in Germany on the ground that the perforated coim belonged to w “past age.” FOR RENT—Furnished rooms, neat and clean, downtown, 1916 Lawrence street.

"I saw an instance recently," remarked Senator Carter of Montana, "of one way to get along with Indians when it comes to a horse deal. One of the missionaries who makes occasional excursions into the Crow country by way of getting on friendly terms with the tribe, commissioned two of the men to get him a swift, strong and presentable riding horse, and he stipulated that he would pay a hundred dollars for the kind of horse described. The braves soon appeared with a horse, swift, strong and a splendid looking animal, but, alas! so vicious that he had to be clubbed almost to insensibility before he would be saddled. Then the Indians blindfolded him to get on the bridle. "The missionary looked on, anything, but edified by the conduct of the braves and fierce temper of the horse. Still, the Indians insisted that they had brought the horse described and they demanded the hundred. The missionary explained that though the horse could go like the wind, the rider ran the risk of having his neck broken before he dismounted. More than that, the missionary was not strong enough to beat the horse as the Indians had. Besides, he finished tearfully, 'How can I blindfold the horse whenever I want to mount?' The Indians replied that all he had to do was to take off his shirt and tie it over the horse's head. 'But conceive,' said the man of God, 'how I would look being compelled to take off my shirt every time I got on the horse. Why, you Indians know that I go among whites as well as Indians, and women as well as men. It would cover me with shame to pull off my shirt that way. I cannot buy this horse.' The Crows thought it over and finally gave up on the ground that it would not be seemly for the preacher to have to take off his garments promiscuously, so the deal was off amicably." Recipe for Oratory. Representative Hobson, at the end of a brilliant speech on naval armament, was congratulated on his oratory. "What is your recipe for good oratory?" a reporter asked. "I am afraid oratory comes natural," was the reply. "There is, though one recipe for it, old Job Walmsby's, but it is hardly satisfactory. "‘Tha wants to be a public speyker, dos' tha, lad?' Job, in his Yorkshire dialect would say. 'An' tha thenks Awm the chep to put tha up a wrinkle aboot it? Tha's right, I awm. Now, hark tha! When tha rises to meek thy speych, hit taable, and oppen thy mawth. If nowt comes, tak' a sup o' water, an' hit taable again. Then oppen thy mawth wider than afoor. Then, if nowt comes, tak' thysen off, and leave public speakin' to such as me.'" One of World's Wonders. Mount Etna, now attracting the apprehensive gaze of the world after 16 years' retirement from active business, has furnished more material for travelers' tales than any other mountain on earth. Astonished Englishmen of a century ago, who fell into the fashionable habit of climbing its highest peak—and some did so, to the amazement of the Sicilians, even in the dead of winter—have left on reo THE STATESMAN, DENVER, COLORADO ord in the exuberant language of their day the emotions that thrilled their soul. "The man who treads Mount Etna," wrote one of these, "is a man above the world. Every river on the island can be traced from its mouth to its source." Ought to Be a Winner. "Say," remarked the man with the absent hair, "I've got an idea for publication that would prove a bonanza for some enterprising journalist." "Well, come on with the explanation," said the other party to the dialogue. "It's a daily paper without advertisements," said the bald gentleman. "Why do you think such a paper would be a success?" queried the other. "Because of the enormous circulation it would attain," replied the party of the prelude. "Why, every man with a bargain-hunting wife would subscribe for it." Jews in New York. A Poor Answer. Otto E. Schaar, president of the Walter's club of New York, in a recent argument on tipping, said to his opponent, sharply: "Your reply is altogether beside the point and irrelevant. It reminds me of a woman's reply in a German court. The woman was accused of poisoning her husband. The prosecuting attorney said to her: "You have heard the evidence. The body contained enough arsenic to kill ten persons. What have you to say?" "My husband,' the women answered, 'was a big eater.'" Within the last few weeks The Statesman has sent notices to many of its out-of-town subscribers of their indebtedness. A recent order of the Post Office Department, regulating the matter admissable to second-class mail privileges, compels all newspapers to keep its subscription lists paid up. Many have responded to our letters, and the few who have not done so will please do so at once. It is essential that we conform to the postal regulations and we can easily do so with the co-operation of our patrons. Let each one who received a letter from us make acknowledgment of it today. DO IT NOW LEST YOU FOR- We are in receipt of unsigned notices from time to time which are omitted for lack of signature. 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.

Phone 6791 CAUSED A RUMPUS STORY OF ONE SMALL DOG AND ONE UMBRELLA Mrs. McIntosh's Absent.Mindedness and Puppy's Ability for Making Trouble Sadly Disturbed the Peaceful Congregation. We had a little excitement in our church a few Sundays ago. Mrs. McIntosh is remarkable for her singular absence of mind. Dr. Potts, the preacher, was reading from the Scriptures the account of the deluge, and when he came to the story of how it rained for so many days and nights Mrs. McIntosh became so deeply absorbed in the narrative and so strongly impressed with it that she involuntarily put up her umbrella and held it over her head as she sat in the pew. Mrs. Butterwick, who sits in the next pew in front, always brings her dog to church with her, and when Mrs. McIntosh suddenly raised her umbrella the action affected the sensibilities of Mrs. Butterwick's dog in such a manner that he began to bark furiously. Then the sexton came in and tried to remove the animal, but it dodged into a vacant pew on the other side of the aisle and defied him, barking all the time most vociferously. Then the sexton became indignant and flung a hymn book at the dog; whereupon the dog flew out and bit him on the leg. The hubbub in the church was by this time, of course, something simply dreadful. Not only was the story of the deluge interrupted, but the wicked boys in the gallery actually "sicked" the dog at the sexton, and seemed to enjoy the contest exceedingly. Then Deacon Jones came after the dog with his walking stick; whereupon the animal actually dashed toward the pulpit, and ran up the steps in such a fierce manner that Dr. Potts all at once mounted on the chair to get out of the way of the beast, and he said that if this disgraceful scene did not soon come to an end he should dismiss the congregation. Then Deacon Jones crept up the steps, and after a short struggle he seized the dog by the hind leg and walked down the aisle with him, the dog meanwhile yelping with supernatural energy. Mrs. McIntosh turned around to watch the retreating deacon, and as she did so she permitted her umbrella to droop over so that the end of one of the ribs caught in Mrs. Butterwick's bonnet. A minute later, when she straightened up the umbrella, the bonnet was wrenched off and hung dangling from the umbrella. Mrs. Butterwick had become exceedingly warm, at any rate, over the onslaught made against her dog, but when Mrs. McIntosh removed her bonnet she fairly boiled over and, turning around white with rage, she screamed: "What did you grab that bonnet for, you green-eyed catamount? Ain't you made enough fuss in this yer tabernacle to-day skeering a poor, innocent dog, without snatching off such bonnets as the likes of you can't afford to wear, no matter how crazy you are, you red-headed lunatic you! You let my bonnets alone, or I'll warm you with this parasol, even if it is in meeting, now mind me!" Then Mrs. McIntosh seemed to realize that her umbrella made her conspicuous, so she furled it and concluded to go home. The best equipped Pleasure resort in the West. Ping Pong Pool and Billiards T.

Nash Walker was largely instrumental in getting up the meeting and suitable resolutions were passed. There has been a radical change made in the Eik Club, situated at 1855 Arapahoe street. It has once more come into the full possession and management of Thomas Clingman and has undergone a change back to the form it had a few years ago.

Hays, a musician and a former resident of this city of only a few months ago, was burned to death last week in a hotel fire at Douglas, Ariz. Mrs. D. A. Austin cleverly surprised her husband with a big surprise party in honor of his thirty-second birthday. Their neat residence was filled with a jolly crowd of friends, who wished Danny many more happy birthdays. Lots of nice presents were received. Light refreshments were served. Wm. Cochran entertained a number of his friends at a stag reception last week. The good time crowd was there and fun is a mild expression to note the doings of the evening. Mr. Cochran left an indelible impression on each guest that he knows how to prepare for a genuine stag crowd. The wife surrendered the domicile for the evening to hubby and his friends, and he was monarch of all he surveyed, with the result that a good time was had. The Mt. Olive Baptist church, the youngest religious organization in the city, has just brought to a close one of the grandest rallies in its history. About three hundred dollars was raised at this effort. Great credit is given to the pastor, A. H. Henderson, and every club and its captain, which was the real working strength of the movement. Mrs. D. A. Austin's club led in the movement. The result of this rally is evident that a new church will be built ere long. Among the sensations of the week was a whipping administered to Policeman Phillips by the newspaper editor of the Daily Sun. The amusing part of the incident was the policeman had invited a number of his friends to go with him to the editor's office and see him whip the suffin' out of the editor for something he had written about the police force, but the editor was there with the goods and never before in the history of this town has any man been thrashed as this policeman was. Every newspaper in the city endorsed the editor's action. Children's day at the A. M. E. church was marked with features that will be long remembered. One of the finest programmes that has been produced for some time was arranged by the assistance of the willing workers of the church. It is noticed of late that the children of our city are growing more proficient at each undertaking. We are indeed producing some fine talent that is worthy of mention. W. T. Thornton has moved his office to 737 South Walter street. This has been a busy week for the secret organizations of our city.

Ordinary fiction is not bold enough for the natural man. He loves to read tales of wonder, of supernatural prowess and of more than human adroitness.

It is the lowest rock in the earth's crust and shows no signs of animal life. It is from two to ten times as thick as all the other layers of rock combined. No evidences of life, either animal or vegetable, are apparent in granite.—Exchange. Preventive of Seasickness. To prevent seasickness red spectacles are sometimes worn. Red glasses are selected because this color is said to have a stimulating effect on the nervous system. Red quickens circulation, and, according to some authorities, seasickness is caused by imperfect circulation. Art and Specializing. Why should an artist who has painted portraits for years be denied talent as a landscape painter? There is no reason for it. We have grown to mistake specialty for personality, and the artist who has made his name as a painter of cats will have to paint cats all his life.—Kunst, Munich. Growth of Girls and Boys. A girl is nearly as big as a boy at two, smaller at four, nearly as big at seven, and the same height at 11. During the period from the eleventh to the fourteenth year, when the girl is growing more rapidly than the boy, she is generally bigger than he is. "Whit way hae ye gi'en ower smokin', Donal?"

Charity and Individual Responsibility. That organized charities relieve much suffering there can be no doubt, but they do not relieve any one of an individual responsibility toward his fellow creatures. If such a sense of responsibility ever dies organized charity will die with it.

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."

OUT UNIFORM PRODUCT. The American school system is the backbone of our government. Taking the citizen in his early youth, it carries him through its various processes, finally turning out the typical American who is the most efficient worker in the world, the patriot, the broad-minded humanitarian. A former member of the School Board of this city three years ago, when approached on behalf of two colored girls who were seeking teachers' positions in this city, voiced this position of the heads of American education well, when he said, that the true American school knew no race, no color, no section, and demanded only efficiency in those chosen to guide the student. Investigation of school conditions in various cities stretching away to the Atlantic coast discloses that so far as colored people are concerned, this gentleman spoke the literal truth. The School Board of Chicago, for instance, reports that statistics are not available of the number of colored teachers employed for they are not classed according to color. They serve without any distinguishing mark. It is known that there are about 30 employed. In some other cities they have reached the eminence of principals in schools having no other colored employees. A higher compliment than these facts to the American school system or to the colored teachers who help make it, is not possible. After three years' waiting the two colored girls who sought places are once more applying, having fulfilled the requirements of the School Board that they shall have actual experience in teaching. They are not asking any lowering of the Denver teachers' standard, the one being a graduate of the State Normal and the other of Columbia University. They are not strangers to the city, but are Denver girls who represent 10,000 colored citizens and over 500 freeholders. We are gratified to know that there is already an expressed fairness toward them existing in the minds of some members of the School Board and we hope they will be granted positions, not because they are colored, but because they are worthy. 14 PAGE. 8.

Because Judge Allen, now presiding judge of the West Side Criminal court, sustained a motion to quash a double indictment against Simon Fitzgerald, the district attorney has appealed the case to the Supreme court of the state of Colorado.

Taft is the nominee and will be the president. He is a big man in all respects and the accepted leader of his party in a continuation of his party's plan of constructive legislation. Until Democracy nominates and draws up its platform, it is enough to say that the Republicans have lived up to their traditions. Lightens Life's Labor.

The first dress suit that ever came to Kansas came with the "aid" from Boston during the dry summer of 1860.

The modern pin-making machine works automatically and completes the pin, with the exception of coloring and polishing, without the aid of human hands. In 1841 the device for sticking pins in rows of papers was invented by Samuel Slocum of Connecticut, and put in use in the factory where pins were made by Dr. Howe's machine. It was later improved by Thaddeus Fowler. This machine is described as scarcely less ingenious than the pin-making invention. By the use of these devices the total pin product in this country, chiefly in Connecticut, was a little over 50,000,000 gross in 1900, of which about 47,500,000 were ordinary pins, about 1,500,000 were safety pins and about 1,000,000 were hairpins.

August1st WILL BE 47th Anniversary OF THE United Brothers of Friendship and Sisters of the Mysterious Ten S M T OF in a Fitting Way the Date He Worked for It. Remember the Date Some years ago there lived in Arkansas a man named Reynolds who owned a narrow gauge railroad from Malvern Junction to Hot Springs. It was partly due to the fact that he had put by a neat little fortune, and partly to his habit of wearing an enormous diamond shirt stud that he had won the nickname of "Diamond Joe." It was Diamond Joe's boast that no one had ever stolen a ride on his little 25-mile road; and, not content with telling this to his friends, he offered a reward of $100 and a suit of clothes to the man who could do it. One clear moonlight night a man came into his office, dripping from head to foot. "Is this Mr. Reynolds?" he asked. "Yes," replied the owner of the narrow gauge, involuntarily glancing out to see if it was raining. "Well, I've come for that suit of clothes and the $100. I've beat my way on your road, Mr. Reynolds, in the boiler tank of the engine; it was hard work keepin' my head above water but I did it—and—here I am!" The French foot is narrow and long. The Spanish foot is small and elegantly curved. That of the Arab is proverbial for its high arch. The foot of the Scotch is high and thick; that of the Irish flat and square; the English, short and fleshy. When Athens was in her zenith, the Grecian foot was the most perfectly formed and exactly proportioned of any of the human race. Swedes, Norwegians and Germans have the largest feet. Americans the smallest. COLORADO an unlucky man will tree and then the uni-ities will have a rope this path the next PAGE. 9. Feet.
