ATTACK ON DISEASE PLANNED TWENTIETH YEAR ATTACK O DISEASE NEGROES JOIN IN WHITE PLAGUE FIGHT. Will Hold Congress on Tuberculosis. One of the most progressive, as well as one of the most interesting steps in the campaign against tuberculosis which is being at present waged with especial vigor throughout the South is the Negro Congress on Tuberculosis, which will be held at Tuskegee, Alabama, from Dec. 14th to 19th. The meting, which is being held under the joint auspices of the Tuskegee Institute, of which Booker T. Washington is the head, and the National Association for the Study and Prevention of Tuberculosis, will be attended by representative colored men and women from all over the United States. The object of the congress is to discuss means for checking the enormous mortality from consumption among the negroes. In connection with the congress, an exhibition showing the ravages of tuberculosis, and the methods for treating and preventing it, will be held. Among the striking features which will be demonstrated by the exhibit will be the fact that the mortality from tuberculosis is 150 per cent. higher in the colored population of the country than in the white. The week of December 13th has been set apart in almost all of the colored communities in the South, and in many in the North, as "Health Week." All colored religious, educational, civic and social bodies will unite at that time to spread the gospel of health, particularly as relating to tuberculosis, among the negroes. Coincident with this meeting in Tuskegee is a determined effort on the part of the white population of the South to stamp out tuberculosis. Preparations are being made in Florida for a "Ninety-Day Campaign" to commence immediately after Christmas, which is expected to reach every man, woman and child in the state with the message that consumption can be cured and that it should be prevented. Immediately after the campaign in Florida, a systematized --- DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY DECEMBER 12 1908 attack will be commenced on the disease in Georgia. In Tennessee, the warfare against tuberculosis has become in many counties a political issue, and plans for drastic legislation affecting this disease are being prepared. The three departments of Health, Agriculture and Education have united for the fight on the white plague. "Health Days" and weeks are being observed throughout the South for the purpose of instructing the school children about tuberculosis. The National Association, under whose direction the entire campaign is being carried out, predicts that thousands of lives and millions of dollars will be saved by the efforts now being made. PREACHER ARRESTED. The Knights of Tabor have had Rev. Dennis D. Cole arrested on the charge of embezzling the funds of the order. Rev. Cole used to be head of the order in this state. A later report is to the effect that four other charges have been made against the Reverend. ONE A FIREMAN ON THE MIDLAND—ANOTHER A HEAVY DEALER IN LIVE STOCK. Some may be surprised to hear tht we have one of the best freight and emergency firemen on the Midland railroad. Spencer Groves, of Manitou, is the young man who is thus employed. A brother, Harvey Groves, is known as one of the largest and most successful live stock dealers of this section and ships live stock to the markets of Chicago, Omaha and Kansas City.—Colorado Springs Light. At the Calumet club there has been inaugurated a music bureau to which all musicians of the state have agreed to register for engagement. Monday will be the opening day with Prof. Rank Holley of the Holley orchestra, will be in charge. CHRISTIAN BROTHERHOOD YOUNG MEN'S CHRISTIAN BROTHERHOOD MEETS GREAT SUCCESS. There comes in every man's affairs a crisis a time when they should and must choose a course which generally determines the way the man inclines. Thursday night the people were compelled to decide for the Brotherhood or the minstrel and much to the great credit of the Denver folk the Brotherhood had a great support of the well thinking and respectable people. The program was fine, which was headed with an invocation from the popular and genial Reverend J. B. Beckham of the Central Baptist church, after which a vocal solo was artistically sang; by Mme. G. Chatman; the Y. M. C. Glee Club showed the power and force of their resonant yet melodious voices in the song, "Until the Dawn," while the solos from Miss Eva Carter and Mrs. J. W. Turley were exceptionally fine. Everybody loves to hear them sing. The piano solo by Clyde Andrews was good, but it took the oration of Joshua Rice to assist bringing the program up to the standard of excellency. Mr. Rice has a pleasing voice and manner of delivery. The selection by the ladies' quartette was extremely fine they always appear well and the crowd enthusiastically welcomed them. The paper of Mrs. Beckham was teeming full of good wholesome advice pregnant of wisdom and learning to mothers, men and children of our city. It is hoped that she will reread the paper before the Alliance. It took a "cata trophe" by the Glee Club to close the program after which Rev. W. C. Williams, pastor of Campbell A. M. E. church, pronounced the benediction. C. B. Hill was the master of ceremonies. The great concourse repaired to the basement and willfully slaughtered the hot waffles so nicely covered with pure maple syrup and served by the fairest maidens of the city. TO THE LADIES OF DENVER.

ALLIANCE HAS GOOD PROGRAM Every person in Denver who takes pride in our city's various improvements and musical advantages is proud to say the least of her producers of music. The Alliance is a place where everybody, redigines or otherwise, can come before and demonstrate his or her ability. When the various organizations take pride in assisting the Alliance it certainly touches the tender spot in every loyal citizen's heart. The music was great Sunday. Mr. Mackay spoke on the "Recent Decision" in the Borea College case, delivered by the United States supreme court. It was shown that the United States had first decided under our constitution that it was right to separate races from intermarriage by the states and it is a crime to do so; then it was right to separate the Negro in schools, in public places of amusement, in travel on land and water; separate grave yards and allowing all other races to be together, getting each from the other all kinds of advantages from associations and intercourse but no state but Kentucky ever had the nerve to make it a crime for Negro and white children to be educated under the same roof, in the same yard or in the same community within a radius of 25 miles. The supreme court has set its approval upon the segregation idea and if carried out to the extreme logical limit, it is a crime in Kentucky for a Negro man to breathe (Continued on Page 5.) (Continued on Page 8.) MADE WITH APPLES MADE WITH APPLES THREE DISHES THAT ARE ALWAYS SEASONABLE. Apple Ginger Not Hard to Prepare, and Will Remain Good a Long Time—Recipe for Butter and Jelly. Apple Ginger—Two pounds of any kind of hard apples, two pounds of loaf sugar, one and one-half pints of water, one ounce of tincture of ginger. Boil the sugar and water until they form a rich sirup, adding the ginger when it boils up. Pare, core and cut the apples into pieces; dip them in cold water to preserve the color, and boil them in the sirup until transparent, but be careful not to let them break. Put the pieces of apple into jars, pour over the sirup and carefully exclude the air by well covering them. It will remain good for some time if kept in a dry place. Apple Butter—Boil one barrel of new cider down half, peel and core three bushels of good cooking apples; when the cider has boiled to half the quantity add the apples and when soft stir constantly for from eight to ten hours. If done it will adhere to an inverted plate. Put away in stone jars (not earthenware) covering first with writing paper cut to fit the jar, and press down closely upon the apple butter; cover the whole with thick brown paper snugly tied down. Apple Jelly—Apples, water; to every pint of sirup allow three-quarters of a pound of loaf sugar. Pare and cut the apples into pieces, remove the cores and put them in a preserving pan with sufficient cold water to cover them. Let them boil for an hour; then drain the sirup from them through a hair sieve or jelly bag and measure the juice; to every pint allow three-quarters of a pound of loaf sugar and boil these together for three-quarters of an hour, skimming every particle off same as it rises and keeping the jelly well stirred, that it may not burn. A little lemon rind may be boiled with the apples and a small quantity of strained lemon juice may be put in the jelly just before it is done, when the flavor is liked. It should be stored away in small pots. TO MAKE CREAM WHIP. Addition of Granulated Sugar Is Highly Recommended. Many housekeepers who like whipped cream as an accompaniment for broths, chocolate or desserts think they must order cream of a special richness. This generally must be done the day before and always costs double the price of ordinary cream. One young woman discovered last winter a way of easily making her daily supply of cream whip. She merely added a teaspoonful of granulated sugar to every pint, had it ice cold and quickly whipped it to a thick froth in the churn. A special whipped cream churn is, by the way, an investment that pays for every housekeeper. The old methods of using a fork and skimming off froth as it comes to the surface is a waste of time that the modern woman cannot afford. Buttermilk Pie. One cup buttermilk, one cup sugar, one egg, one teaspoon flour, two teaspoons melted butter, two teaspoons extract of leman. Bake in two crusts. THE STATESMAN, DENVER, COLORADO. Country's Consumption of Paper. Country's Consumption of Paper. Represented graphically, the United States now consumes yearly a roll of white paper 830 feet high and 377 feet in diameter. From the top of such a roll of paper one can peer down in imagination on the tower of the new Singer building in New York. It would weigh, all told, about 2,700,000 tons, and to produce it would have required some $8,800,000 worth of rags, some $7,400,000 worth of old or waste paper and some $20,800,000 worth of wood pulp, to say nothing of other essentials.—Boston Transcript. Ancestors of Present Foxes. K. Toldt of Vienna, has produced what he and others regard as virtually conclusive evidence that foxes are descended from ancestors whose bodies were clothed with horny scales, like those of the pangolins, or scaly anteaters. This evidence is based upon the examination of the skins of young foxes, and depends not only upon the arrangement of the hairs, but upon the fact that the skin itself exhibits a structure such as would be shown by that of a pangolin after the removal of the scales. Blaming the Women. Against whom are we to charge the social distinctions that now curse the circles of Protestantism in this country, if not against the women? Men are naturally democratic. Left to themselves they seldom draw sharp social lines or insist upon conventional distinctions. What do we find in the one sphere where they are supreme—the political world? How much class distinction exists there? Not so with women. They are more gregarious, but at the same time more conventional. Is not fashion their standing incrimination at this bar? If rich, they are the more exclusive; if poor, the more sensitive. Social lines existing in the world without they have extended into the sacred inclosure of the church, until to-day there is no more conventional body among us than the well-to-do Christian church, declares John Balcom Shaw, D. D., in the Homiletic Review. Nothing hurts us so much as this one condition, and for its existence I hold our women almost exclusively responsible. Let them only say the word, and mean it, and this state of affairs will be gone in a week. Sausage, unless some qualifying term is employed, is a mixture of chopped pork, veal and beef. At any rate, that is the decision of the recent international congress for the repression of food and drug frauds. The Paris butchers do not like this definition, and insist that sausage proper contains nothing but the meat of pigs. They asked that qualifying terms be used when beef or veal is mixed with the pork, but were overruled. It is rather late in the day to dispute over sausages, says the Youth's Companion. This culinary confection is of ancient lineage. King, in his curious and interesting "Art of Cooking," remarks that "Varius Heliogabalus had the peculiar glory of first making sausages of shrimps, crabs, oysters, prawns and lobsters." Elagabalus, as King snowe have written it, was emperor of Rome from the year 218 to 222, when he was killed by his soldiers at the age of 18 years, and is remembered for no worthy act unless it be the invention of the crustacean sausage. But even the sausage of Elagabalus could not compare with the good old-fashioned country sausage made from fresh pork and seasoned with peper and salt and sage and various other herbs, the like of which town dwellers rarely find in the markets. It is doubtful, if Victor Hugo and Dumas had combined their imaginations, whether they could have produced a more sensational incident than the struggle between a madman and two policemen on the span of the Williamsburg bridge, 332 feet above the surface of the East river, in New York, a few days ago. The spectacle of the madman, bent on suicide, climbing to the pinnacle of the bridge tower and pursued by two policemen who were compelled to scale the same dizzy eminence, was one which gave the New York crowd of thousands that watched it reinforcement in their old belief that the truth is occasionally as strange as fiction. Our sympathies are with the learned judge whose human sympathies impelled him to so far forget the dignity of the court as to declare preference for an official bludgeoner to leal with the chronic wife-beaters, says the Pittsburg Dispatch. His court is none the less just and none the less well administered because of this human outburst. There are, indeed, tales in the divorce courts that would make any red blood boil. Approaching completion in the shipyard of the Elswick works at Newcastle-on-Tyne, England, is the Brazilian battleship Mina Geraes, which has superior armament and arrangement to the British Dreadnought class, as well as being the heaviest battleship yet built in the world. The cruiser Invincible and the battleship Superb, of the Dreadnought class, are also to be seen at the shipyard. President Garfield's son has succeeded Mark Hopkins' son as president of Williams college. It was Garfield who said that "Mark Hopkins on one end of a log and a student on the other is a college." Dr. Harry Garfield began at the right end of the log, and is now worthy to hold his seat on the wise end of it. A Pittsburg physician, trying to show how disease germs are disseminated on money passed from hand to hand, says that on one bill he found 73,000 living bacteria. He doesn't say, though, that he refused it. A man who is going to sail across the Atlantic in a balloon is taking geography lessons. What he really needs is swimming lessons. What you talk about should depend very largely on the person you are talking to. PAGE. 10. A Seasonable Appetizer. Wash four large, firm ripe tomatoes. Cut across horizontally and scoop out contents, carefully preserving shape of cups. Put cups on ice, also the pieces scooped out, cut very small, till near serving time. Put through the chopper two crisp green peppers of good size, minus stems and seeds, also half a medium-sized onion. Just before serving mix with the cut tomatoes, adding salt to taste, a very little vinegar and one-fourth teaspoonful of sugar. Serve in the tomato cups with garnish of parsley or nasturtium leaves or curled mustard. Sometimes I cut the whole tomato in small pieces and serve in small glass dishes. If I have not enough tomatoes, a small cucumber crisped in ice water and cut in little bits is an addition and to some palates an improvement.—San Francisco Call. Dried Pumpkin for Pies. Take a thin paring from the pumpkin, scrape out the seeds, and cut into slices an inch thick. Cut these crosswise in thin slices, spread on plates, and dry in a moderate oven, in the warming closet of the range, or in a small fruit drier. Store in paper bags, tin boxes such as often accumulate around the house, or in fruit jars. The main thing is to put it beyond the reach of insects or dampness. To use dried pumpkin soak it over night in more than twice as much water as is needed to cover. Cook in the same water until tender and the water is almost entirely evaporated, then use according to recipe, for stewed fresh pumpkin. Luncheon Dish. Boil a good-sized chicken until done. Separate from bones and cut up as if for a salad. To this put a coffee cup of bread or cracker crumbs, a coffee cup of milk, a heaping tablespoonful of butter, salt and pepper to taste. Mix and put in a bowl or pan and steam till hot through. As it is served cover with cream sauce and mushrooms. To make sauce, take one pint of sweet milk. Let it come to a boil and then stir in two teaspoonfuls of flour previously mixed with cold milk, a spoonful of butter, and can of mushrooms. Supreme of Chicken. Chop the choicest parts of a raw chicken very fine, having about two cups; add four well beaten eggs, one at a time, until the mixture is smooth; add one and one-half cups of thick cream, half a teaspoonful of salt, and a quarter saltspoonful of pepper. Decorate molds with truffles, fill with the mixture, cover with buttered papers, set in a pan of hot water, and bake 30 minutes; serve with a sauce made of one cup each of white stock and milk and the golks of three eggs. Marshmallow Fudge. Two and one-half cups brown sugar, one-half cup white sugar, one-half cup cream, pinch cream of tartar. Boil ten minutes, then add one-quarter pound marshmallows, and boil two minutes longer. Add one cup slightly salted, broken walnuts, after removing from fire, and beat on the back of range. (By so doing the candy does not cool so quickly, and you can beat it longer, thereby improving it.) Pour in buttered tin to cool. Batter Pudding. One quart milk, four eggs, half teaspoon salt, eight tablespoons sifted flour. Beat with mixing spoon until thoroughly blended and bake in buttered dish in hot oven about 20 minutes. Sauce is creamed butter and sugar flavored with lemon juice. War of Extermination on Rats. A Paris journal suggests that in order to rid the world of rats the vari- ous governments should offer a re- ward of one penny for each rat killed. Denmark, {it appears, has already set the example. There, since a law was passed giving a halfpenny a head for dead rats, the schoolboys of Copen- hagen devote their playtime to hunt- ing the rodent. The bodies are taken to the fire brigade station, where the tails are cut off in order that the re- ward may not be claimed a second time. The bodies are burned the same night in a furnace at the gas works. Souvenirs of Famous Airship. A firm engaged in the manufacture of aluminum wares at Ludenscheid, Germany, has placed on the market souvenir spoons made from the alumi- num which formed a part of the Von Zeppelin airship, which was wrecked on August 5. One side of the handle beara the date of the catastrophe and a facsimile signature of the aeronaut. On the other side there is in relief a view of the airship sailing over a clty and the inscription, “Cast from the remains of the Von Zeppelin air- ship.” Ban on Dual Earnings. Uncle Sam has struck a blow at a class of professional men peculiar to Washington. An order has been is- sued prohibiting United States govern- ment clerks from swelling their in- comes by practicing medicine or filling teeth on the side. It has for a long time been a common pfactice for de- partmen: clerks tg attend night col- leges, and, after securing diplomas, practice professions after office hours. From Bad to Worse. A miner in Scotland was visited by a friend, and among the places of in- terest shown was the pit mouth. See ing the cage lowered with the stout steel rope, the friend exclaimed: “My word! | shouldn't like to go down there on that rope.” “Why,” ex- claimed the miner, “Aw wadna lik’ to gang doon there withoot it!"—Lon- don News. Tell the Children the Why. Little children like to see, under- stand, and enjoy farm operations and the working of farm machinery. Al low them to see these things and ex- plain thelr workings. Make them feel that all parts of farming is fun to you, and {t will be to them. They will grow to love the occupation, In the Case of True Love. Never believe the old proverb: “When Poverty enters the door, Love files out of the window,” Instead of flying, Love puts down his bow and arrow, picks up the ofl can, and says: “Now you will see how I can make the wheels go ‘round.” , An Unfortunate Defect. Chicago women have founded “a school for wives,” but the trouble ts they do not intend to remain in their homes long enough to profit by it— Detroit News Tribune. Bulgarian Women for Suffrage. The wife of the prime minister of Bulgaria is the president of the Bul garian Woman Suffrage association, which has a membership of about 3,000, THE STATESMAN, DENVER, CO!-ORADO. Reports from the northwest show that there is more money in that part of the country than at any other time in 20 years. In Idaho, Washington and Oregon it required 60,000 men to gar- ner the wheat crop, estimated at 60,000,000 bushels. The average wage was $100 for the season. Inthe three states the harvest was com- plete. The weather was right, and there was plenty of help. Club House Salad.’ Cook macaroni-for about 20 minutes. Take from fire, drain in colander and wash through with cold water until thoroughly cold. Put in bowl; mix a rich mayonnaise, about a cupful; take about four hard-boiled eggs, carefully Slice the whites and add to the maca- roni; take the yolks and chop fine; add a portion of the mayonnaise until a thick paste is obtained. Drain a bot. tle of capers; add to the macaroni. Slice about two tomatoes when they are cold, or drain the juice from a can of same, and use the thick portion of the tomatoes just before serving the mayonnalse over the whole; slice a green pepper and also add powdered red pepper. Serve with lettuce leaves. Baked White Fish. Thoroughly clean the fish; cut out the backbone from the head to within two {nches of the tail, and stuff with the following: Drain two cupfuls of e@ysters, mix with them one cupful of cracker crumbs, one tablespoonful fine- ly ehopped parsley, quarter cupful but: ter, salt and pepper. Season the fish with salt, pepper and lemon juice Stuff with the oyster dressing and Sew up with fine twine. Rub the fish over slightiy with butter, place it in a baking pan, dot with butter and pour fn a little hot water. Bake, allowing 12 mimutes to the pound. Serve hot with parsley sauce Boston Pumpkin Pie. Select a medium-sized pumpkin, solid substance, and dark orange color. Cook in water enough to prevent burn ing. whieh should be evaporated in the end to leave all the sweet flavors with the pulp. Then for a deep pie use one eupful pumpkin, a pinch of nutmeg, eleve, and salt, one-quarter teaspoonful ef eimnamon, one-half teaspoonful of gloger, with one-half cupful of sugar; ad4¢ this to the pumpkin with one beaten egg, and three cupfuls of rich milk, which should be heated. Bake tm a moderate oven about one hour. Brambles. One cup raisins chopped fine, (I grind mine in meat chopper), one lem- on grated and a little of the juice, about one tablespoon of cracker erumba (can grind these too), one ege and one-half cup of sugar. Mix thoroughly and bake in rich pie crust rolled very thin and cut in circles. Foid over same as for turnovers or put layer of filling and then a top eruet. Cut in squares when cold. These are fine for luncheons or to carry for dinner. Be sure and have oven g004 qag bot or they will be tough. ' J. WINSTON BAILEY, OPT. D.

UD. rerkims: Dear Madam—I now write you what your wonderful hair remedy has done for me. My hair had been fall- ing out for over a year. It came out in spots larger than a dollar. Black heads and pimples came in the bald spots ‘and my scalp looked like it had been scalded. After using your treatment three months the scuip began looking better and the black heads and pimples disanpeared. New hair came in, and after using your remedy six months my hair was all in again I also had the worst cause of dandruff one ever seen, Your sham- poo and scalp treatment has cured me after hundreds of other remedies had failed. I cannot praise your remedy half enough ,and advise all others to iry them ds I have, and they shall find good results if they follow full in- structions. Tam, yours truly, Eyerett S. P.

The Hedjaz railway, among other things, will contain a carriage fitted up as a mosque, where pilgrims will be able to perform their devotions during the journey to the sacred cit fes. Externally the praying carriage is only distinguishable from the other carriages by a minaret six feet high. The interior is luxuriously fitted. The floor is covered with the richest of Persian carpets, while around the sides are verses from the Koran ap- propriate to the pilgrimage and in let. ters of gold. A chart indicates the direction of Mecca at one end, and at the other are placed four vessels for holding water for the ritual ablutions Most of the carriages are of foreign make, but the “wagon mosquee” was built in Constantinople.

Mountain climbing by electric car has become a pastime in Switzer- land. Tourists have formed the habit of mounting the great ramparts of the Alps of an afternoon to watch the sunset and get back to dinner. Here and there, in casual fashion, holes have been punched under the great domes of rock, for the convenience of a railroad which does not care to go out of its way. And, finally, a plan to make the mountain lakes give their waters to the lifting of boats over the whole range has been pronounced feasible. The story of the Loetschberg rail- road, therefore, which is now about ‘to pierce at last the northern Alps, ap- pears to have lost part of its wonder- inspiring power, because it has be- come a commonplace to speak of crossing these huge mountains. Yet no man gifted with imagination can fail to recognize in the plans of this great work, a wonderfully dramatic element, in the final complete triumph over the grandest of nature’s efforts by the persistent blows of man’s puny but untiring hands. It is as if the great stubborn power which has so long successfully resisted the on- slaught were being beaten and broken forever at its last stand, while the pigmy victor laughs in pride of his prowess and of a boast made good.— From “Mountain Torrent Builds Rail- road,” in Technical World Magazine. To Look After Railroad Interests. The organization of the American Railroad Employes’ and Investors’ as- sociation is a movement by the rail- road interests to look out for them- selves by combating legislation hos- tile to the railroads and creatiag a more friendly public sentiment. Its objects as set forth in a declaration of principles are as follows: “By all means to cultivate and main- tain between its members such a spirit of mutual interest and such con- cern on the part of all of them for the welfare and prosperity of Ameri- can railroads as will best promote their successful and profitable opera- tion for the benefit alike of their em- ployes, investors and the public. “To publicly provide means and methods of obtaining consideration and hearing from all legislative bodies and commissions empowered to enact laws, rules and regulations affecting the conduct and operation of railroads. “To do whatever lawful things may be necessary in order to secure a fair return alike to capital and to labor interested in American railroads, with due respect at all times to efficient service, fair treatment and safety to the public.” Practically all the large railroads of the United States have signified their intention of joining the organization. Philadelphia Flyer of 1737. In these days of trains “every hour, on the hour,” between New York and Philadelphia, we can hardly conceive how the newspaper announcement made March 10, 1737, that a “flyer would begin flying on 3d April to per- form the journey between the two cities in one day” could have created a great sensation—even in Philadel- phia. Eighty miles in 14 hours does not seem to us such breathless speed, but when we read in the same paper that in order to accomplish this feat “John Butler, with his waggon, must needs get out from the sign of the ‘Death of the Fox’ at daybreak and drive at top speed (the horses being changed at each stage ere the coach stops rocking) to meet the ferry of Rubin Fitzrandolph, which delivers passengers in New York by night,” we can understand that for those leisurely times this was indeed “go- ing some.” This, at least, was the opinion of a traveler who performed this journey in 1737, for he writes home: “And if any one wishes to travel more quickly let him go to Ken tucky and charter a streak of light- ping.” THE STATESMAN, DENVE'R, COLORADO.

Ingredients That Go to Make Up the Succulent Goulash. Flank steak, onions, tomatoes and potatoes go into the making of this popular Hungarian dish. Cut about two pounds of the meat into small cubes and place a layer on the bottom of a perfectly flat-bottomed kettle of good size. Over this put a layer of sliced onion, and so on until the kettle is as full as desired. Add enough cold water to cover the upper layer of meat. Then put over the fire and let the contents come to a boil. Allow two cupfuls sliced or canned tomatoes to each quart of the onion and meat mixture, and after the onions and meat reach the boiling point (on no account before) pour the tomato over the mixture, but do not stir. Then push the kettle back on the stove or over the gas simmerer, where it will simply bubble on one side. Simmer two hours. Have ready some small potatoes of uniform size, peeled, and put into the kettle, pushing the meat and onions gently to one side to make room for them. The contents of the pot must not be disturbed more than is absolutely necessary. As soon as the potatoes are done, which should be in 20 or 25 minutes, serve. MINCE MEAT FOR PIES. How to Make the Filling That Is So Popular Just Now. Two pounds of beef suet, two pounds and a half of chopped raisins, one pound and a half of cleaned currants, two pounds of chopped apples, two pounds of brown sugar, half a teaspoonful of salt, half a pound of mixed peel, one teaspoonful of ginger, one teaspoonful of cinnamon, one teaspoonful of ground cloves, three lemons, four tablespoonfuls of chopped almonds, half a cupful of brandy and a half cupful of port or home-made wine. Clean the fruits and put them into a dry jar; add the suet, apples, peel and almonds chopped fine, sugar, salt, rind and strained juice of lemons, brandy and wine. Mix all thoroughly together and keep well covered. Jellied Meat. It is a wise thing to have plenty of cold meat on hand for "snacks" or luncheons. This is inexpensive and in winter can be kept in good condition for days. Get four pigs' feet with legs to first joint and a shank of beef sawed and cut. Boil beef and pork in separate kettles with unsalted water to cover until the bores fall out of the pigs' feet and the beef is very tender. Lift the meat from the liquors in which they were cooled and set both pots away to cool. The next morning skim each free from the fat which will have hardened on top. The beef liquor can now be utilized for a rich stock. The pork liquor should be returned to a kettle, together with the meat, both pork and beef cut in small pieces. Add salt, pepper and any other seasoning desired, heat, then pour into molds. Some of the molds may be varied by adding to them slices of hard boiled eggs. 8nowballs. These are attractive in appearance and delicious to the taste. Beat the yolks of three eggs, add three teaspoons of sugar and beat again; then add two tablespoons of white wine, one-quarter teaspoon grated lemon rind, one-half teaspoon vanilla and two cups sifted flour. Orange juice and THE STATESMAN. DENVER. COLORAD may be substituted for the wine and lemon rind if preferred. Knead the dough, then roll out quickly into a thin sheet and cut into circles with a biscuit cutter and fry at once in deep fat (using a wire basket if possible), until a delicate brown. Drain on paper and roll in powdered sugar. Hunter's Pudding. This is a nice, inexpensive winter pudding. One cup suet or fat salt pork, chopped fine, one cup molasses, one cup milk, three cups flour, three level teaspoons baking powder, one-half teaspoon clove, one-half teaspoon cinnamon, $1 \frac{1}{2}$ cups raisins, washed, stoned and chopped, $1 \frac{1}{2}$ teaspoons salt. Mix thoroughly, turn into a well-buttered mold and steam at least three hours. Serve with thin cream, hot liquid sauce flavored with lemon, or hard sauce. English Molded Meat. This makes a good emergency dish: Soak a quarter ounce of gelatine in a half cup good stock. Add when softened to one pound minced beef or veal (cooked), with herbs and seasoned to taste. Warm up, then pour into molds and let stand until cold. When ready to serve, turn out, decorating with hard-boiled eggs, a little chopped parsley and savory jelly. Lamb Fritters. Chop a cup of cold cooked lamb. Make a batter of one egg well beaten, two-thirds cup of milk, one-fourth teaspoon salt and one and one-third cup of flour sifted with one rounding teaspoon baking powder. Add the chopped lamb and stir well; drop from spoon into deep hot lard and fry to a nice brown. These are nice for supper on a cold night. Oatmeal Pudding. Take one quart of cooked oatmeal, add one cup sugar, two eggs, pinch salt, butter size of hickory nut, one cup chopped raisins, one-half teaspoon cinnamon, and one pint of milk, stir all together, then bake a golden brown. Eat with lemon sauce. Delicious Economical Pudding. Wash two tablespoons rice, then add two tablespoons sugar and one quart sweet milk; then put in oven and cook slowly for two hours; add flavoring, if desired, when done. Flaxseed Lemonade. Four tablespoonfuls of flaxseed (whole), one quart of boiling water poured on the flaxseed, juice of two lemons, leaving out the peel; sweeten to taste. Stew three hours in a covered pitcher. If too thick put in cold water with the lemon juice and sugar. Ice for drinking. It is splendid for colds. An Egg Hint. To prevent hard-boiled eggs (for salads, sandwiches, etc.) from turning a dark color, place them when taken out of the boiling water in a basin of cold water for a few minutes. This will not only preserve their natural color, but will render them much more easy to shell. Keep Silverware from Tarnishing. If pieces of gum camphor are placed in a box with silverware that is not in daily use it will prevent the articles from tarnishing. It may also be used in the canton flannel cases now so much in vogue. Clean Springs with Map. Take an ordinary dish mop such as you can buy for ten cents, moisten with kerosene, and you will find it much easier to remove dust from coils than by using a rag or brush.

WALTER EAST --- --- It is winnipeg that is now upnearing the miracles that used to be worked in our own western countrty when it was new. In the wonderful new section of the Dominion, American capital has a rich development company in operation, the city of West Winnipeg has been founded, and factories are going up as if by magic. You can credit it all to the fact that enterprise will find a place and a way. Successful experiments have been made at the Royal theater in Stuttgart with a new apparatus designed to distribute ozone at fixed intervals throughout the building. The ozone is conducted by small tubes to all parts of the house and turned on, regulated and turned off at will. The result has been excellent, the air being completely purified within a few minutes. Nevada passed a law several years ago allowing hunters to shoot wild horses and to sell their hides. This opened the way to a new and profitable industry, and within a few years 15,000 wild horses were killed. But the hunters got to shooting horses that were branded and shot, and, upon the plea of the ranchmen, the legislature repealed the law. The toughness of the New York policeman appears in the fact that three big racing automobiles ran over one, and he lives to relate the details. Marriage is on the decrease in England, and the Throne says very seriously and earnestly that it is because of the suffragette agitation. A Toronto dealer advertises music by the pound, and probably the pianists pound when they play it.

Writer in The Housekeeper Shows How Work May Be Done with Comparative Comfort—Use Handy Drainer. One of the unnecessary things in housekeeping is the continuous washing and wiping of dishes. Methinks I hear a cry of horror from a horde of housekeepers, but many of them have, nevertheless, at one time or another, rebelled against the stack of dishes which looms up, like the schoolboy's hash, "three times a day." It is queer how some women will wear themselves out rather than step aside from the beaten path. They have yet to learn the joy that comes from taking an independent tack and making the work subservient to the worker; from being the master instead of the slave. To many women, the bugbear of housework is dishwashing. Why wash dishes three times a day? Do it in the morning, when fresh; scrape the dinner dishes, stack in a large pan filled with cold water, and cover. Treat the supper dishes the same way, and do not allow your conscience to keep you awake one single hour. It will not make the task too heavy the next morning, if you try my way. After washing each piece in hot suds and rinsing in hot (not warm), water, put them, piece by piece, in the wire drainer (price ten cents), as nearly on edge or aslant, as possible, and let stand until dry. Glasses, of course, and silver, must be wiped; but the former can be left filled, after using, and the latter put into a pitcher or deep jug until some odd minute when one is not so weary with well-doing that another turn of the screw seems next to impossible.—The Housekeeper --- MEATS ROVISIONS THE STATESMAN, DENVER, COI.ORADO.

A Little Consideration and Fore thought Here Is Well Repaid— Proper Treatment of Tinware— | To Clean Copper or Brass. To Clean a Frying Pan—Rub with & hard crust of bread and wash with hot water and washing soda. Never scrub it or the next food fried in it will stick. To Clean Enameled or Granite Uten- sils Whose Contents Have Been Al- lowed to Burn—Fill with cold water, add a piece of washing soda the size of an egg and heat to boiling point. Wash at once, as the burned parts will then be more easily cleaned. Saucepans and baking dishes should be filled with cold water immediately after using, so as to prevent the frag- ments clinging to them. By doing this they may be cleansed in half the Ume @therwise required. Tinware should be washed in hot soapy water, rinsed, then dried with a towel Drying tinware on the stove darkens and sometimes melts it. If desired bright, first wash and then clean with either writing or some min- eral soap, not with sand, as this will cut through the soft metal and soon wear it out. Coffee pots should always be bright on the inside to insure good coffee. By occasionally boiling soap, water and washing soda in them they will be kept in an excellent condition. To clean rusty and blackened knives and forks, use half a raw potato dipped in brick dust. Stains on tinware or teacups can be removed by dipping a damp cloth in common soda and rubbing briskly. Wash and wipe dry. Granitewear should not be left to dry over a hot fire, as the heat in ex- panding may cause the outside to scale, To clean copper or brass, if it 1s very dirty, put some fine salt on a plate, dip into it a cut lemon, and rub on the metal. The strong acid will re- move the worst stains. Tumblers which have contained milk should be first rinsed in cold wa- ter before washing in hot water. To Cook Rice to Perfection. Wash two cups of rice in three wa- fers, drain and dry. Have ready a good sized kettle in which are four quarts of boiling water. Slowly let rice alft through your fingers into the boiling water, never letting it stop boiling. Keep lid off kettle. Add ta- Dlespoonful of vinegar to whitem rice and to keep it from boiling over. When cooked tender, which will be in about 25 minutes, empty the contents of ket- tle into a colander which is placed over a bowl (the water from the rice making an excellent starch). Pour on and through the rice boiling water to remove the starchy stickiness, then place colander over the kettle of gen- tly boiling water to steam for five min- utes. Pour into hot dish and serve as Q@ vegetable. If you once eat rice cooked this way, 10 other way will suit you. PAGE. 3. A. J.

AGHSAN OR TURKISH ST5W. Something New for Those Who Are Tired of Every-Day Cooking. And now if you wish to try a new dish, and at the same time dispose of the fat sprawling purslane that is running over your garden beds and paths, let me recommend the dish which Philip, my most faithful and competent Armenian helper, assures me is "God's medicine," and will "save a good many doctor's bills." The Italians, I find, are also very fond of it, and it is really very tasty. In Turkey, Philip says, the purslane is cultivated and grows much larger and more succulent. It is in great demand as a salad plant. This is the way he cooked it for dinner the other day. A half peck of "pussley" was looked over most carefully, then thoroughly washed. It was then put in a saucepan with a little cold water. Cook half an hour (if very young it will not take quite so long). Meantime take three large or four small onions, cut in dice and brown in a frying pan with butter, olive oil or good drippings. Philip used the olive oil. Five minutes before the purslane is ready, add the onions and salt and pepper to taste. This was served hot as a prelude to the dinner instead of soup. Dandelions are served in the same way, and, like purslane, are "God's medicine" and natural purifiers.—Washington Star. Electricity and Railroads. There are now in the United States almost 40,000 miles of electrical railroads, not including the former steam railroads which are using this power at the terminals. There are plenty of men living who remember when there were not so many miles of steam railroads in the country. The trolley, which was at first a purely urban institution, has become a competitor with steam, and it seems certain that a few generations hence electricity will be the great motive power on all railroads unless some invention of a superior quality is brought out to supplant both. THE STATESMAN, DENVER, COLORADO. BUILT OF CONCRETE REMARKABLE VIADUCT LEADING INTO RICHMOND, VA. Novel Structure, 3,000 Feet Long, and of Immense Strength, Is the Pride of the Engineers That Built It. A concrete viaduct 3,000 feet in length and varying in height from 18 to 70 feet, forms one of the most remarkable recent performances of engineers and builders in the field of railroad construction. one of the most remarkable recent performances of engineers and builders in the field of railroad construction. The Richmond & Chesapeake Bay railroad, seeking entrance to Richmond, Va., found the track elevation problem facing it under circumstances which called for extraordinary measures. It happened that the right of way of the railroad entering Richmond ran close to old wooden buildings which were of a most inflammable character, and for this reason the fear of fire prevented the consideration of wood as a material for the viaduct construction. It was thought the most natural material to use under the circumstances, therefore, would be structural steel, and the first plans for the work were made for that sort of structure. The engineer in charge, however, suggested before work actually commenced that reinforced concrete could be adopted for this as well as for the more ordinary type of building, and his suggestlon was indorsed by the management. The foundation was therefore laid of stiff clay and gravel and footings built to bear a weight of three tons a square foot to provide for all possible stresses including proposed future double tracking. The concrete was made of one part Portland cement, two parts granite dust and four parts crushed granite, to pass through a three-quarter-inch ring. Throughout was used a steel trussed bar for the reinforcing. The spans vary in length from 18 to 70 feet, the latter distance from support to support making many builders open their eyes in wonder. But, in completed form, the whole viaduct is practically one great monolith, as truly as if it had been carved out of stone—with the added strength, quite beyond that of any stone, imparted by the steel within its body. In testing the viaduct before it was accepted by the railroad a locomotive and tender and two steel gondola cars loaded with steel rails and weighing about 150,000 pounds each were run the full length of the structure. The train was then run back and deflections measured for several spans. After that a test was made by breaking the train at various points on the viaduct, and, finally, by running the engine and cars at a speed of 35 miles an hour over the structure. A deflection of seven-thirty-seconds of an inch was the maximum, which proves the elasticity and reliability of the material. Trains are now running over the viaduct. Can Stop Cars by Wireless. With an instrument that will send a wireless message 180 miles and register a signal in the cab of a moving locomotive, the Union Pacific believes it has solved one of the most valuable problems in the campaign for the prevention of accidents on railroads. The device is the invention of Dr. F. H. Milliner, electrical engineer, who has been experimenting at the Union Pacific shops in Omaha for two or three years. Dr. Milliner has now so far perfected his patent that any number of locomotives on the same track may be equipped with the signals and yet only the one which it is intended to reach will receive the signal. The device consists of a neat contrivance placed in the cab by which a station agent may signal a train between stations and advise the engineer of impending danger. A bell and a red light are used for the signal, and these are operated by wireless telegraphy. The new signal is worked in connection with the block signal service. The Big Expense of Empty Cars. One of the difficult features of the business depression which adversely affected operating results is found in the empty freight car movement, which increased nearly 23,000,000 miles; when the sudden falling off in freight traffic came, not only were our lines well covered with foreign cars, which must be returned to their owners empty, to avoid further per diem charges, but being an intermediate road, was flooded with empty cars being returned from western lines to those in the east, and vice versa. A vast amount of transportation expenses (approximately $1,000,000) was incurred in moving this equipment without revenue, and our hire of equipment debit balance increased $461, 258; the latter, however, partly on account of the increased per diem rate. Rock Island Railroad Annual Report Sues Railroad for $25,000. W. F. Almond, a postal clerk of Wichita, Kan., filed a $25,000 damage suit against the Missouri Pacific for injuries he alleges were received in a wreck near Winfield, May 31, 1908. He says he has been unable to work since, and is permanently injured. He also says the injuries were received in a mail car which was so old and rickety that it had been condemned, but was still being used by the Missouri Pacific, regardless of the orders. Shrubs to B come Ties. During the last season the Pennsylvania Railroad Company set out 303, 030 trees, including pines, larches, spruce and hardwoods. In its nursery it set out 313,000 forest seedlings for future transplanting and planted 222 bushels of red oak acorns, from which 1,500,000 seedlings are now growing. It also planted a large quantity of black walnut, chestnut and hickory, practically all of which have given complete germination. Savory Breakfast Dish.

Sauce: One cup of sugar one tablespoonful corn starch, one egg, and boiling water; cook until as thick as cream; ne teaspoonful of vanilla. PAGE. 8 Warmed-Over Dishes. Peas and cabbage may be warmed over in the following way: Butter a small mold or basin, put in the article to be warmed and place some pieces of butter on the top, cover with a saucer and put into the oven until sufficiently hot. New potatoes are troublesome to reheat; the best way is to measure them out before scraping, so that none may be left. This is not always possible, however; if any are ltft they may be put into the steamer and made hot, covering them with a cloth instead of the saucepan lid. Delicious Dessert. One cup of white sugar, three tablespoonfuls of grated chocolate, five tablespoonfuls of grated bread crumbs, three eggs, one good pint of sweet milk; add a little salt and vanilla to taste. Mix the sugar and the yolks of the eggs thoroughly, then add the bread, then the chocolate, and lastly the milk. Bake about 20 minutes, then cover with the whites of the eggs well beaten, mixed with three tablespoonfuls of sugar. Put back into oven until brown. Raisin Light Biscuits. Take a lump of light dough ready to make down, shorten with a lump of butter, about a tablespoonful to a pint of dough and let it rise as for light biscuits. Flour the rolling board well and roll the dough about half an inch thick. Spread thickly with melted butter, sprinkle with sugar, raisins and cinnamon. Roll up, and with a sharp knife cut off pieces about an inch thick. Bake in a moderate oven. Pickled Grapes. Pick fresh grapes from the stems without breaking, and put in a jar. For seven pounds grapes, allow a quart of vinegar, three pounds of sugar, a tablespoonful each of whole cloves and cinnamon sticks. Cook vinegar, sugar and spices together a few moments. Cool to a little hotter than lukewarm and pour over the grapes, which are not to be cooked. Cover and set in a cool place. PLEASED PATRON Alamosa, Colo., Oct. 25, 1908. Mrs. Perkins: Dear Madam—I received the goods all right, which I presume you know by this time. I thought I'd wait to see how I liked your treatment before writing. I also received your letter from Pueblo, and thank you very much for interest shown. Now, as to your treatment. I used the red shampoo and eggs, as I thought the scalp must have a thorough cleaning to start with, and you didn't designate which to use first. I must say it was the most delightful shampoo I ever had. I felt like I had a new head (laugh). Now, as to your salve, it is the nearest thing to perfection I have ever used, as a dressing, and I don't think you've exaggerated its merits. --- TROUTMAN & SONS Carpenters and Builders General Jobbing Promptly Attended To Business Address 3131 HUMBOLDT STREET PAGE. 6. COOKED IN CHAFING DISH. Panned Oysters a Delicious and Most Popular Dish. For an easy and delicious way to cook oysters in the chafing dish, brown two tablespoonfuls of butter until a clear, dark color. Drain and carefully free from shells a pint of fat, fresh oysters, and add to the browned butter; cook until the edges of the oysters curl and serve at once on pieces of toast, which have been prepared in the kitchen. Butter the toast and season the oysters with cayenne pepper and salt, if necessary. A pleasant variety is given to these oysters by sometimes adding a wine glass of sherry just as they are served. Again, Parmesan cheese may be sprinkled over the toast. The Home. Holes in plaster walls may be stopped with a mixture of sand and plaster of paris mixed into a paste with water. When dry cover with a piece of paper to match the walls. Carpets should be beaten on the wrong side first and then, more gently, on the right. Never put a carpet down on a damp floor, for this often results in the carpet becoming mildewed. A square of house flannel of the stoutest and coarsest description made into a bag and put over the broom is the best means of sweeping boards or linoleum. When slightly dampened it takes up instead of scattering the dust. To make beeswax place comb in a coarse muslin bag and put a small stone to weight the contents; put in kettle, cover with water and boil. The wax comes to the top of the water and the sediment remains in the bottom of kettle. Remove wax when cold. To remove grease spots from wallpaper, sprinkle baking soda over blotting paper, place over the spot, and press a moderately warm iron against it for a few minutes. The blotting paper will absorb the grease, and the paper on the wall be free from spots. Whole Wheat Bread. Dissolve a cake of yeast in a gill of lukewarm water. Scald a pint of milk by pouring into it a pint of boiling water, add a teaspoonful each of salt and sugar and when the mixture is blood-warm add the dissolved yeast. Beat in with a wooden spoon about a quart of whole-wheat flour gradually until you have a dough that can be handled readily. Turn out upon a floured bread board and knead for at least ten minutes, then set to rise with a light towel thrown over it. If light enough at the end of three hours knead again quickly for five minutes, make into loaves and when these are light bake; if the loaves are small, three-quarters of an hour; if large, for an hour. Grated Apple Pudding. Grate seven large tart apples; beat the yolks of eight eggs with two cups of pulverized sugar until thick like a batter; add the grated apples, one dozen lady fingers grated, the grated peel of one lemon, and the stiff beaten whites of the eggs. Strew blanched almonds on top. Bake in a well-greased spring form. Eat with whipped cream THE STATESMAN. DENVER. COLORADO. Sift together one quart flour, a salt-spoonful salt, and a half teaspoonful baking powder. Rub into the flour with the tips of the fingers a heaping table-spoonful lard, then add a cup of milk or enough to make a stiff dough, stiffer than for bread. Now if you follow the old time method of beating, take a biscuit beater or rolling pin and beat the dough on a block of hard wood until it blisters and pops. It takes a strong arm and a skillful one to beat well. Cut into rounds about the size of a watch (medium size), prick with a fork, and bake about 30 minutes in a moderate oven. If you like short cuts in your culinary methods instead of beating try running the dough through a food chopper about six times. This blisters the dough as well as the traditional method of beating and can be done in a tenth of the time. Sea Foam Fudge (Nut). Put into a saucepan three cupfuls of light brown sugar, a cupful of cold water and a tablespoonful of vinegar. Bring this to the boil gradually and do not stir after it is once heated. Boil steadily, and when a little of it dropped into water forms a hard ball, take from the fire. Beat stiff the whites of two eggs and when the sirup has stopped bubbling pour in on these and beat well. When it begins to stiffen, flavor with one teaspoonful of vanilla and add a cupful of chopped nut kernels—hickory, pecan or English walnuts. Drop on paper or turn into a greased pan and mark off in squares or triangles.—Delineator. Mayonnaise Dressing. Take the yolks of two eggs, one-half a teaspoonful of salt, one-half an eggspoonful mustard, and a little white pepper. Mix the yolks and mustard together with a fork, then add olive oil very slowly, not more than a few drops at a time. Keep stirring and adding the oil until the mixture becomes thick and creamy. Add salt, white pepper and malt and tarragon vinegar. More malt than tarragon is used. The vinegar will thin it to the proper consistency. Serve with lettuce, celery, or any kind of salad. Baltimore Whip. Grate the rind of two lemons and squeeze out the juice; add two teaspoonfuls of vanilla, one cup of pulverized sugar, two whites of eggs, and the yolks of four. Beat for ten minutes. Dissolve two boxes of gelatin in a cup of warm water; when cool add to other ingredients drop by drop, then fold in the well-beaten whites of four eggs, beating constantly. Turn the mixture into a glass dish, beating constantly. Serve with orange juice sweetened and maraschino syrup. To Clean Bathtubs To clean bathtubs, washbowls, and white sinks, use benzine or gasoline, saturate a rag and rub all over, and then rub dry with another cloth; if they are dirty, repeat. This will save labor and also the porcelain on the tubs and sinks; keep benzine in a glass jar and keep away from fire. Butter Scotch. Put one-half pound of brown sugar, one gill of water and a tablespoonful of vinegar on to boil. Boil ten minutes, add two ounces of butter and continue boiling until brittle, when dropped in cold water. Turn into greased pans, and when cold, break into irregular pieces.

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.

James Bryce, the British ambassador to the United States, is one of the finest examples of the scholar in public life. His great abilities have been repeatedly recognized by scholastic institutions in this country. One of the latest instances, says the Troy (N. Y.) Times, was his selection to deliver the first of the annual Dodge lectures at Yale university. Ambassador Bryce made the address last evening, his subject being "Indolence as a Hindrance to Citizenship." While omitting all allusions to current American politics, Mr. Bryce spoke of the civic duty which requires of every man that he shall do what he can to raise the standard of citizenship, and in this connection remarked: "The fellows who are too good to run for minor offices may well take an example from that young man who, more than 20 years ago, did not consider himself above going to the lower house of the New York legislature, and who has now become an eminent statesman." And, the report of the proceedings states, "the crowd warmly applauded this apparent reference to President Roosevelt." French and Good Roads. The first international road congress, recently in session in Paris, was undoubtedly inspired by the thrifty impulses of the French people. They have invested several hundred million dollars in building macadam roads, of which they already have 23,000 miles. Their problem is to find means by which the principal thus invested shall not be lost. A kind of road had developed that met, there and here, the traffic for which it was intended. Iron tires wore off just about enough dust from the coarser fragments of stone composing the road to replace that carried off by wind and rain. In this way the larger stones were cemented together and a smooth, impervious shell formed over the surface. But the pneumatic tire has submitted the road to a wholly different wear, and the world must think out anew its road-building problem. No one questions the possibility of automobile-proof roads, but all the ways of building them now known appear decidedly expensive. One of the steam shovels engaged in work on the Panama canal, in the operation of which more than 300 employees were engaged, recently lifted out a quantity of dyanmite which is described in an official report as being "more than a bushel." What would have happened if the shovel had struck the dynamite instead of the earth around it is easy to imagine. The explosive was in sticks three-quarters of an inch in diameter and five inches long, and the cartridges bore the trade-mark of a French manufacturer of dynamite and a date which appeared to be November 29, 1887. Unquestionably the dynamite was put in by the French and either failed to explode or was abandoned when the work ceased on that part of the French waterway. The dynamite ap- THE STATESMAN. DENVER. COLORADO. RECIPE FOR CURRIED MUTTON. Makes Pleasant Change from the Usual Roast or Boiled. Get the breast of mutton, have the butcher chop the bones up small, then cut it up into small pieces, fat, gristle and all; put into a pan and wash it. Then, considering the meat weighs $ 3 \frac{1}{2} $ pounds, put a quarter pound of butter into the pot and let it cook. Slice two small onions into the butter and cook until brown. Then stir into it $ 1 \frac{1}{2} $ dessertspoonfus of curry powder and a half cupful of shredded cocoanut. Next put in the meat, add hot water enough to cover and stir all well together, salt taste, let boil one hour slowly, then draw back and simmer for two hours longer, until all the water has evaporated. Chicken or any other meat may be done the same way. Next boil two cupfuls of rice in boiling salted water for about 20 minutes, strain and let cold water run over it to separate the kernels. Then put over hot water to steam for a few minutes. Heap round the sides of the dish and put the curry in the center. Feather Cake. Seven eggs, save whites for icing; $1 \frac{1}{2}$ cups sugar, three cups flour, one cup water, one-fourth cup chocolate, three teaspoonfuls baking powder, one tablespoon butter, one teaspoon of allspices, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, ground cloves and allspice, one teaspoon extract vanilla. Mix first butter and sugar, then yolks, then add chocolate and spices, then the flour, then the well-beaten whites of four eggs, then extract of vanilla. This makes a three-layer cake. Put together with boiled icing and chopped walnuts. One cup sugar, one half-cup water, one half teaspoonful of vanilla. Boil until it threads. Beat two eggs thoroughly and add icing while beating well; then put nuts on layers over icing. Children's Cookies. One cup sugar, one-half cup butter, two eggs well beaten, one-third cup sweet milk. Flavor with nutmeg, and add flour in which has been sifted two teaspoonfuls good baking powder. Have dough soft as can be conveniently handled, and after cutting sprinkle with granulated sugar and bake quickly. Before all the dough has been used, cut with knife a fine "cookie baby" for each child in the family. If you are so unfortunate as to have no little children in the house, then bake "cookie babies" for your neighbor's children, especially if the neighbor is poor and her children look hungry. Seek Aid of Government. The Society of German Engineers at its annual convention held in Dresden empowered its officers to negotiate with representatives of the Prussian government of the German federation to make arrangements for the bringing out of the Technolexikon, which the society was forced to give up about a year ago, on account of the great scope of the work, involving expenditures greater than the society thought it could consistently make. Defends Red-Haired Girl. Elinor Glyn says that red-haired girls are always unhappy, and as her own hair is said to be as near red as possible, she no doubt speaks from experience. Other women, however, are not inclined to agree with Mrs. Glyn, and declare that no red-haired women really believes her hair to be red, but is fully satisfied within her own consciousness that it is the most beautiful shade of auburn.

The time has come for the division of political spoil. The Republican party in this state has gone down to defeat and in the county has saved only a few brands from the burning. Unfortunately for colored Republicans, two of the offices which the party has lost had colored employees, and they are gone from us irrevocably. Two of the four still remain in the hands of the party, and the two officials elected, the sheriff and the assessor, will have the watchful interest of the colored people focused upon them doubly strong. Every recurring election brings forth stronger and stronger bids from Democracy for the support of negroes, and patronage is a favorite bait with it. It is the best bait, too, for it is tangible and immediate. Both because colored people gave their support to the Republican party with the expectation that we would receive as much if not more from it in the future than in the past, and because failure to recognize our claims will mean demoralization, we call upon these successful Republican candidates to take no step backward. We even go further, and ask that the district attorney make a place for us in his office. We understand full well the difficulties surrounding appointments this year, but the little bit of pie which comes to our race from the party is not to be compared with the loyalty we give it, and it will be ungrateful and dangerous if our claims are set aside because of the pressure of white office seekers. An example of far-seeing political wisdom has been set in the city by Auditor Vickery, who gave place to a colored man despite the fact that his office had to bear the brunt of place-giving, and the colored people remember him with praise. Let the county, at least keep up to its former standard, and go forward rathe rthan backward. A WORTHY EFFORT. On Thursday night the Inter-Graduate Association brought to this city and presented to a critical and appreciative audience one of the greatest tenors in the country. Some months since it stood sponsor for a musicale in which appeared a pianist and a violinist. Soon it will present Joseph Douglas, son of Frederick Douglas, a violinist of national reputation. This series of culture lessons and musical treats puts the community under a debt of gratitude to the Graduates. We have some splendid talent in this Western country, but both it and the public in general will be benefited by being brought into contact with genius from other parts of the country. Apart from the individual's appreciation of music, he owes it to himself to associate with all that makes for uplift, and so we hope that the effort of the Inter-Graduate Association will be the expression of the desires of us all.

Benjamin Webb, on old-timer on Santa Fe, New Mexico, a soldier of the 149th regiment as volunteer, and participated in William T. Sherman's famous march to the sea, and an ardent supporter of the Statesman, is dead in his old town. He was an old man and was honorably discharged from the army at Fort Supply, Indian Territory. The poor old man died of exposure. The Santa Fe daily papers gave him a long and very honorable mention, which is too long for publication in this paper. Chas. J. Parson, clerk in the postoffice, has taken a very active part in the deceased behalf Remarkable Railroad Garden Between Bedford and Luton, on the embankments of the Midland railway, in England, a piece of effective landscape gardening without parallel may be seen. On each side of the railway line at short intervals hawthorn bushes have been planted, and skillful hands have pruned these bushes into a variety of shapes, grotesque and symmetrical; peacocks, roosters, tables, chairs, bowers, plumes, and other striking models are clearly depicted. The effect is quite remarkable. In the season the tail of a rooster was a mass of white bloom, and in another the nodding plumes in a lady's hat were in full flower. As these ornamental trees occur at every few yards' distance for about 20 miles, some idea of their number may be estimated. It seems remarkable that, although thousands of passengers pass through this unique panorama daily, public attention has seldom been directed to it. India's Prosperous Railroads. India has 30,206 miles of railroads open and 2,516 miles of lines under construction and sanctioned. These figures represent the position of Indian railroads at the end of March, 1908. There were 924 miles of new road opened to the public during 1907, making a total of 30,010 miles of railroad in India at the beginning of January, 1908. During the year 290 miles of road were sanctioned. The total capital outlay on all lines at the close of 1907 amounted to £265,621,000, while the expenditures sanctioned for the year 1908-9 reach a sum of £10,000,000. During 1907 the gross earning of all lines totaled up to £31,512,466, or £2,321,866 more than in the previous year. The net earnings amounted to £15,321,866, which represents an increase of £581,866 over 1906. The total number of passengers carried was 305,890,000, against 271,006,000 in 1906. --- TERMS.

On Friday evening, December 4th, Mr. and Mrs. Jerry Steele celebrated their first wedding anniversary at their home, 2547 Emerson street. About fifty guests assembled on this occasion and wished Mr. and Mrs. Steele many happy returns of the day. The color scheme was pink and blue with a white wedding bell suspended from the chandelier. Mrs. J. Bates assisted in receiving. The beautiful souvenirs were large English walnuts tied with a dainty white satin ribbon with inscriptions artistically ornated on the inside. Rev. A. C. Murphy and wife, Rev. J. B. Beckham and Rev. A. E. Reynolds were present on this occasion and did much to make the event one long to be remembered. J. McCowan, one of our civil war veterans, has left the city permanently to make his home with his sister in Indiana. Improvement is the order of the day.

Kind Friends:— A Magnetic Healer has arrived in the city, and invites the sick and afflicted to make no delay in calling to see him. Precious Life and Health can be Saved by this that would be Hopeless Under the Old Methods. The Nature of The Disease makes no Difference. It is no longer necessary to suffer the pangs of pain and disease, or die prematurely. The time is now at hand when it is as easy to get well as it is to get sick. Those who are suffering with Stomach Troubles, bad cases of Rheumatism, or any other Lingering Disease, take one treatment of Magnetic healing from the Healer and you small be convinced that your disease and pains will be turned into health and joy. All this is simply the operation of natural law, and it is not half as wonderful as the fact that you can send your voice along a little wire for thousands of miles, yet no one doubts the telephone, or is astonished at what it accomplishes. Is it strange, then, that a new discovery should be made in the line of physical science as applied to the healing art. PROF. H. G. H. BUTLER, 1123 Welton Street. Phone Main 8752. MRS.
