MUCH DANGER IN DUST.

The use of the clothes brush In theliving rooms of a house Is emphatic-ally denounced In the Lancet as a dan-

gerous practice, likely to lead to (Id-

ease and death. '"The Imaginationdoes not require to be stretched veryfar to realize that the clothes brus!might be easily responsible for thUisscmlt atlon of disease," says the expert journal. "Dust Is rarely. If everfree from nilcro-orgaulsm- and amnn;them pathogenic entities have bee;recognized. Dust la in fact an enemof the human race, a vehicle of disease, and should everywhere and oiever occasion, however trifling, b

prevented as far as means can be end

ployed to that end. Clothes, of coursmust be brushed Just as carpets musb , beaten, but both processes creata nuisance which is different not li

kind, but only la degree. Just, therefore, as there are grounds reserve)for the beating of carpets, remote athey should be, from human habitation, so also ought there to be in :

household conducted on hygienic linea special room relegated to the brusliIng of clothes. The dally clothes havia large capacity and a singular adlnjIty for dust which contain the seeds o

a common cold or a sore throat, oreven of blood poisoning and tetanus,so that the suggestion that the clothesbrush should be handled In a less In-

discriminate way than Is usually the.

case can hardly be regarded' as chl.merlcal."

POLISH FOR THE FLOOR.

Mixture That Is Guaranteed to Produce Good Results.

A good mixture for polishing a hardwood floor may be made from onothird raw linseed oil and two-thlr-

paraffin. It should be used sparinglyor the polishing afterward will take along time. In cleaning such a floor Itis better to use a soft hair brushrather than a stiff one. After beingwell swept, the floor should be wipedwith a dry, soft cloth, In order to takeup all dust. If there are any apotsthey may be removed with a clothwet with turpentine or they may berubbed with a cloth wrung dry out ofwarm water.

This will take oft the polish, but Itmay be restored by using a weightedbrush. This brush has a long handleand Is pushed back and forth till thepolish is again restored. Woolencloths may be used, but, of course. Itwill take longer and the work will hetedious The weighted brush, as wellas o'hers, should bo thoroughlycleansed two or three times a year bywashing In warm water, to which afew drops of ammonia has been added.

The Ideal Bedroom.A cheerful bedroom is one of the

essential points for an invalid orconvalescent, and since it Is difficultto find a house with all tho bedroomsfacing south, some one must be un-

selfish enough to give the sunniestrooms to the-- less robust members ofthe family.

Many people Insist that the easternexposure 1s the best or a sleepingroom, because the early morning sunl3 healthful, but if the room must,perforce, face north, it should havea light, cheerful paper and the light-

est possible draperies.The bed should not be placed so

that the light from the window shinesdirectly In the eyes of the sleeper;It may be conducive to early rising,but the effect upon the eyes is un-

pleasant and often harmful. If thebed must face the windows and thefootboard is not high enough to shieldthe eyes a screen should be put acrossover night between the vludow andthe bed.

Uses for Bran Water.Bran water Is the best of agencies

for cleaning fine colored muslins, likeorgandies.

As a carpet cleaner bran slightlydampened, thrown on the carpet, andthfiii thoroughly swept out, Is unex-

celled. Removes all dust and, beingdamp, prevents dust from flying.

To cleanse light-colore- d furs healbran and rub Into fur with hands, theqwith perfectly clean brush beat andbrush every pa.'ticle of bran from tksfur.

To llry patent leather or other shoesheat a pan cl bran in the oven untilfinite warm, pour this Into the Bhoes,filling to the top, wipe the outsidewith a dry cloth and rub into theleather vaseline or Bwcot oil and' letstand un'.tl dry.

The Best Return.After all, It Isn't the way we 'live

nor th( work we do that matters, butthe lditl we put Into It. Is there anywork too sordid, too prosaic to yield arotura of beauty? Ellen Glasgow.

Man's Whole Duty.He who Is truthful, Just, merciful

and kindly, does his duty to his race,and fulfills his great end In creation,no matter whether the rays of his lifeare not visible beyond the walls of hishousehold or whether they strike theeno.3 of the earth. Lord Lytton

Survival of Ancient Belief.It Is an ancient belief that a manj

name has some mysterous sympatlwith his nature, whence arise sutstories as that of Rumpelstiltskiwhose power over a human beii:vanishes the moment that his nansi pronounced aloud. It has beisuggested, with some show of reasothat the modern practice of "naIng a refractory member ofMouse of commons is merely a sivlval of this belief, which our Norancestors brought Into England. 3James Gazette.

Four-Foote- Thieves.In Winchester, England, a groc

began to miss money from his tand set his wife to watch. After Mweeks the wife was not able totect the thief, though money w

stolen almost every day. There wrltwo clerks in the store, and tgrocer finally called them thievand discharged them.

When two others had taken thdplaces the money continued to !

appear, and the case was given to t

police. An officer who hid under t

counter solved the problem,found bits of paper representsabout $50 that the mice had m:nests of. They had entered thethrough a hole in the back and talthe bills one at a time.

The two clerks who had been cf

charged for dishonesty brought sfor damages, and the other day t

grocer was compelled to pay th$300 each.

PRESIDENT FINJSHES HIS TOUROF INSPECTION.

TALKS WITH THE EMPLOYES

Houset of Laborers Sees Phe-

nomenal Rainfall It ReturningVia Porto Rico.

Colon, President Roosevelt reachedCristobal at 3:15 Saturday afternoonand personally inspected the housesof canal employes, the campa of' labor-

ers, the docks and other points of In-

terest The presidential party tookbreakfast at Mount Hope, where thereIs a large reservoir supplying water toCristobal and Colon.

When he reached the station atColon the President went up stairs Inthe Panama railroad offices whence hereviewed the Cristobal fire brigade,which turned on simultaneously twenty--

one streams of water from hy-

drants.

Roosevelt mounted a horse and. ac--1

companled by Chisf Engineer Stevensand other canal officials and secret ser- - i

'vice men, galloped over the entiretown.

Most of the President's time at Cris-tobal was devoted to an inspectionof the quarters of the laborers. Hetalked with some of them and made!note or uieir complaints, wnicn werechiefly on the scarcity of West Indianfood. The President promised thatImprovements, such as the erection ofbaths and kitchens and the paving ofstreets, would be made. When at the ,

commissary President Roosevelt saidhe saw no reason why the canalshould not be able to sell West Indianprovisions at the same price as wasbeing charged by outsiders.

In the evening a reception and ballwas given on pier No. 11, at Cristobal,In honor o President Roosevelt andhis party by the employes of the com-mission.

President Roosevelt had conferencewith the heads of Jhe various canal de-partments and went aboard his trainat Tlvoll to begin the homeward jour-ney. As the train passed Camp El-

liott the marines were lined up for review and the band played "The StarSpangled Banner." At Gaton Presidentand Mrs. Roosevelt. dlupmharkpri And '

olimbed the hill where the big damand locks will be located. The men ofthe camp cheered the President, whomade a short speech.

President Roosevelt said he was gladto have seen the canal under such un-

favorable conditions, as he now couldappreciate the magnitude of the ob-

stacles to be overcome. With one ex-

ception, he said, he found all com-plaints made to him to be unjustified.He was pleased with the condition ofaffairs and the system as now estab-lished in the zone.

Asked if he would return to theIsthmus, he said he surely would,whenever it was necessary, and hewas delighted with the hearty wel-come the people ot Panama had givenhim.

During the past six days the rainfallhas been exceptionally heavy. Fridaythe rain gauges at Cristobal regis-tered four and one-ha- lf Inches fortwenty-fou- r hours and at one time oneinch fell In fifteen minutes. TheChagres and Rio Crande rivers floodedmany portions of the zone, causing sev-

eral landslides. The landslide at Pa-raíso took with It over fifty yards ofthe main tratft of the railroad andwrecked a locomotive and freight train.The President Saturday night em-

barked on the flagship for the north.He expects to arrive at Ponce, PortoRico, Wednesday. After landing therehe will cross the island in an automo-bile and will embark at San JuanThursday for Hampton Roads.

county visited Leadville in a bodyand investigated the public school ofthis city. The teachers were takenaround to the different schools, afterwhich a meeting was held at the highschool. A committee, consisting otCounty Superintendent Mary L. McGIn-ni- s

of Buena Vista, City Superinten-dent H. C. Stearns, Buena Vista, andCity Superintendent Edgar Kesner ofSalida, was named to tane charge otthe league. The intention of theteachers is to have leagues organizedlu every county of the state. Thesecounty organizations are to consultwith the various county school boards,with the object of determining upon aminimum salary at which teachers areto be employed.

The teachers belonging to theleagues are to obligate themselves notto work for a lower figure than theminimum wage schedule. The differ-ent county leagues are to send dele-gates to Denver about the time of themeeting of the educational counciland each delegate will act as a legisla-tive committee, whose duty it will beto draft bills relating to education andhave the council see that these billsare introduced in the Legislature.Each county league will use its powerto bring the matter forcibly to the at-

tention of Its representatives in theLegislature and to secure their sup-port. The movement is one In whicheach teacher of the state is vitally in-

terested. There is no intention touse radical measures, but all will en-

deavor to have the condition of theteachers bettered, where such better-ment Is needed. In cases where thesa'arles are already satisfactory, noincrease will be asked for.

GEN. WEST DEAD

COLORADO LOSES PIONEER EDI-

TOR AND VETERAN.

AT THE AGE OF EIGHTY YEARS

Captain Second Colorado CavalryFounder of Colorado Transcript atGolden Adjutant General of Colo-

rado.Golden, Colorado. Gen. George

West war veteran and pioneer editor,founder of the Colorado Transcript,died at his home here at 5:30 o'clockThursday afternoon, at the ripe oldigc of eighty years and seven days.

He celebrated his eightieth anniver-sary election day and was able to getcut and vote to commemorate theevent, but during the afternoon hewas taken with a sinking spell andnever left his bed again.

General West was one of the bestknen characters ot Colorado, andhas served the people faithfully inseveral public positions. He was bornIn New Hampshire, and at an earlyage learned the printers' trade on theold Claremont Eagle. Later he wasemployed on the Boston Transcript,working in almost every departmentot that paper.

ft 1859, with a party of Bostonlans,he landed In Golden, and was a mem-ber of the company that built the firstbusiness house in this city. Thebuilding still stands and will for manyyears be a monument to his memory.Besides being engaged in mercantilebusiness at that time, he started thefirst express line between Golden andDenver.

He soon began to long for the news-paper business again, and establisheda weekly paper here called the West-ern Mountaineer, but after two yearssold it to enter the service ot thoUnited States in the Civil War ascaptain of Company F, Second Colo-rado Cavalry. He served with distinc-tion until the close of the war, whenhe returned to Colorado and acceptedn position as city editor ot the Denver News.

In November, 1806, he came back toGolden and started the ColoradoTranscript, and has since been con-

stantly at its head. He has beenpresident of the Colorado EditorialAssociation and for several years pasthas been its historian.

When Governor Adams went intooffice in 1887, he appointed GeneralWest adjutant general of the ColoradoNational Guard. He was at the frontwith the state troops suppressing Indi&n uprisings in the White rivercountry during the Ute war in 1887,and it was at that time he was giventhe sobriquet of "Give 'Em HellWest," which title has since remainedwith him.

The manner in which he won hissobriquet was interesting. He hadsent the troops of the national guardinto the White river country. A re-

port was sent to him at the statehouse that the Indians had fired uponthe troops. General West wired backa characteristic reply, as follows:

"I'm coming. Give 'em hell."Governor Orman appointed General

West president of the board of trus-tees of the Soldiers' Home at MonteVista. During his four-yea- r term hetook personal interest in the affairsof the home, and the old soldiers re-

gretted to see him retire from theboard. He has also served a term onthe board of control of the IndustrialSchool for Boys.

He was a prominent member otDodd Post, G. A. R., of Golden, andserved several terms as commander,besides filling other important posi-

tions.Few pioneers In Colorado y but

ore familiar with his early days inthis state. He started across theplains to the Pike's Peak gold regions,crossing the Missouri river at St.Joseph April 1st, with ox teams, hisparty consisting of fifteen men, knownas the Boston company.

Before reaching Fort Kearney theymet many stampeders coming backfrom the mines, and eight of his party,discouraged by unfavorable reports,turned back, but West kept on. TheIncident only served to indicate theindomitable character of the mau,who was strong In every emergency.

His personal acquaintance In theWest was of the widest and he wasadmired by all for his fine ability andsturdy character.

General West was married to MissEliza Boyd of Golden, who, with twochildren, Harley D. West, local editor,and Marguerlta, wife of George M.Kimball, associate editor of theTranscript, survive him.

form bill as drafted by the commit-tees appointed at the meeting held in ,

Washington nine months ago.The portions adopted include seven '

causes under which annullment of mar--(

nages may ue ootuinea ana six causesfor absolute divorce. They are Infidel-ity, felony, bigamy, desertion, habitualdrunkenness and intolerable cruelty.

The important changes In the billare the striking out of all referencesto proceedings and practice, leavingthe questions for the various legisla-

tive bodies to pass upon. The commit--tee decided that so long as open hear-- 1

lngs are held and the laws providefor direct service on the respondentand fix a punishment for collusion, themeasure need not conform to anyfixed rule. The causes for which di-

vorce can be granted are infidelity,felony, bigamy, desertion, habitualdrunkenness and Intolerable cruelty,and in the discussion of the various sec'tlons there was little opposition to any"

oi these provisions, but in the list otcauses tor annulment of marriage,

VIADUCT FOR PANAMA.

The Daring Suggestion of Noted Ken-

tucky Engineer.

Louisville, Ky. A jlan for a con'crete maritime highway acruss theIsthmus of Panama, to be used as isubstitute for the ditch as at presentprojected, has been submitted to Pres-iden- t

Roosevelt by Col. AlexanderHogeland, known throughout thaUnited States as the "father of tbcurfew."

Tho plan, which has been the sub-ject of correspondence between thePresident and the engineering depart-ment and Colonel Hogeland, Is uow intho hands of the canal commission.

It contemplates the building of a

concrete highway at the bottom thirtyfeet above sea level, and which will

a viaduct In passing the lowportions of the isthmus.

The advantages claimed for it artthat it will allow the rivers to bepassed under it, thereby obviating thedangers resulting from freshets, doingaway with the necessity of impoundinga vast quantity of water from theChagres and other rivers in the arti-ficial lake by the Gatun dam, and finailing avoiding the necessity of an linmensa annual expense for dredgingand keeping the canal clear and espe-cially where it passes through the arti-ficial lake.

at more than 1150,000,000, an-

nounces that he will distribute $10,000,-00- 0

or more to the poor of Mexicowithin thirty days. This young man,who six years ago was a poor miner,recently offered to pay the governmentdebt of Mexico, but the offer was de-

BOMB AT ALTAR

FEARFUL EXPLOSION IN ST.CHURCH AT ROME.'

BUILDING FULL OF PEOPLE

Explosion Creates Scene of Terror-Tremen- dous

Roar, but No SeriousDamage Church Unharmed

and Worshipers Uninjured.

Rome. A bomb was exploded in St.Peter's Sunday. The edifice wascrowded. An indescribable scene ofconfusion followed. There were no fa-

talities and no one was injured. SinceSaint Anacleutus, who was ordained byPeter himself, erected an oratory in90 A. D. on the site of the presentbasilica, to mark the spot where theremains of St. Peter are buried, nosuch dastardly occurrence is noted In

the annals of the church.Sunday was the anniversary of the

dedication of the basilica to. St.. Peter,and it was beautifully decorated forthe occasion. Holy relics were ex-

posed and a large number of the faith-ful attended the" services. CardinalRampollo, formerly papal secretary otstate, was among those present. Hetook part In the service In the choirchapel.

The last mass had just been con-

cluded when the explosion occurred,end oniy one canon, who had not quitefinished, remained at the altar of St.Peter. This altar Is at the end of theright aisle and it was near here thatthe bomb had been placed. As thecanon turned, to bless the communi-cants there was a tremendous roarwhich echoed through the lofty archesof the immense dome like a thunderclap.

At the same t ime a dense smoke spreadthroughout this portion of the basilicaand a strong odor of gunpowder filledthe air. Confusion and panic at onceseized the people. The canon at theaitar tried to stem the tide of foar. Heshouted out:

"Do not be afraid; it is nothing:merely the noonday guu." His wordshad little effect.

Tho vast size of the church, how-ever, gave room for the crowd to scat-ter, and at the end of a few minutesthe people were surging toward thedoors, excited and nervous, but or-

derly.It was discovered that the bomb had

been placed under a scaffolding thathad been erected to facilitate repairsto the roof, exactly over the celebratedtomb of Clement XIII. by Canova,which consists of a figure of the Popeand two lions, and which is the mostremarkable piece of sculpture in thebasilica.

The tomb was found to be unin-jured, and even the pavement showsscarcely any signs of the explosion.

V The Pope was engaged in his regu-lar noon hour devotions when thebomb went off.

The pontiff asked anxiously if thechurch hud been damaged. Upon beingreassured, be fell upon his knees, aay-ir- g

he must Implore mercy for the mis-guided perpetrator of the deed.

Thanksgiving Day, made holy by thePilgrim fathers and sacredly kept tothe present generation by the peopleof the United States. It is for mostpeople a day of rest, a day of feastingand of rejoicing. Governor Hager-man- ,

equalled prosperity in the history ofNew Mexico, and of the nation ofwhich the people of this Territory area part. Spiritually, materially, andmorally, great strides have been madetowards that perfection which shouldbo the aim of individuals and of na-

tions. It has been a year of bountifulharvests, of large increase in our herdsof cattle and sheep, of great progressin agriculture, in irrigation, in mining,and in the development of all the nat-

ural resources so lavishly furnished usby nature for the support and happi-nee- s

of our people.Throughout the nation the spiritual

life of the people, and the public con-

science, have been quickened; officialwrong-doin- has been exposed andcivic weakness uncovered. In allparts of the country there is apparenta remarkable awakening of publicsentiment in suppression of avarice,graft, and greed, a movement whichmust culminate in the enactment ofmore wholesome laws, and ultimatelyin the purification of the body politic.

From the early days of our Repub-

lic, when the pioneers from across thesea nrst set foot on the shores of NewEngland, the American people haveacknowledged their dependence onthe allegiance to the God of Nations,and have expressed their trust in andgiven thanks to Him.

As evidence of our gratltude-t- Godfor the blessings which have beenshowered upon us, and in obedienceto time honored custom,

FARMERS MEET

NATIONAL GRANGE IN SESSIONAT DENVER.

FROM TWENTY-TW- O STATES

of New Hampshire In theMaster's Chair Formally Welcomedby Governor and Governor-Elec- t of

Colorado.

Denver. Farmers from twenty-tw- o

states, delegates to the annual con-

vention of the National Grange, Pa-

trons of Husbandry, assembled at theChamber of Commerce Wednesdaymorning and were called to order by

Worthy Master Nahum J. Bachelder,former governor of New Hampshire.Standing committees were appointedand an adjournment taken until 2:30o'clock.

At the afternoon session the mes-sage of the worthy master, containingmany important recommendations,was read, and the grange went into se-

cret session.An open meeting was held at night,

when the farmers were welcomed tothe city and to Colorado by Gov. JesseF. McDonald, A. J. Spengel, presidentof the Chamber of Commerce, Gover-

nor-Elect Buchtel and others.In his address Master Bachelder

made special reference to legislationin favor of good roads. He suggestedthat a bill be drawn for presentationto the next Congress, asking an appro-priation of $50,000,000, to be paid atthe rate of $10,000,000 a year, and tobe expended in building roads through-out the country and improving thecondition of old highways.

In speaking of the ship subsidy billhe referred to it as an iniquitous meas-ure and said that the grange hadhelped to defeat it, and must be prepared to renew the fight during thenext session of Congress.

He spoke In enthusiastic terms ofthe proposed parcels post, and rec-ommended that the grange take actionat this meeting to give such a measure strong support. . He ascribed thefailure to enact the law to the opposi-tion of the express companies, whichhe said were monopolistic, and to thatof a few rural merchants. The opposi-tion of the latter, he said, was duemore to ignorance Uian anything else.The parcels post, hb said, would be tothe smallest of rural merchants an op-

portunity equal to that of his largestcatalogue competitor, as far as mallorder business is concerned. "Therural merchant," he said, "has the mo-nopoly which has caused the decay ofour villages to be feared, and not theparcels post, which is a step towardthe abolishment of monopolies."

As a result of Master Bachelder'srecommendation, it is stated that thegrange will at once take up the sub-ject of a parcels post, and will appointa committee to carry on a campaign infavor of it

Of the railroads, Master Bachelderhad the same to say as of the expresscompanies. That in the spirit of mo-nopoly they prevent competition bypreventing the building of new roads,although the Increase in tonnage issuch that they can no longer handlethe business with the lines and equip-ment now In operation. As a remedyhe suggested the construction of aship canal connecting the Mississippiwith the great lakes and with the At-lantic.

Legislators who treat the farmersof the country with contempt shouldbe punished accordingly, he said. Hecited as examples of those whom thegrange has punished, James W. Wads- -

worth of New York, chairman of thehouse committee on agriculture, andCharles H. Burton of Ohio. Both hadbeen denied a be asserted,because the first had paid no attentionto a communication from an organiza-tion with nearly 1,000,000 members,and the second had written a con-temptuous answer.

"The farmers of New York and Ohiowho are membera of the grange de-

feated these two men," he said, "andit should be a lesson to others."

In his welcoming address at thenight meeting Governor McDonaldtold the delegates that he hoped theywould visit other sections of the statewhich has 3.000,000 acres of land un-

der irrigation and much other landunder cultivation without irrigation.He called their attention to the minesof Cripple Creek and other camps,which produced gold and sliver valuednt $55,000,000. and to the coal mines,which produced 11,000,000 tons of coallast year. Agriculture in this state, heicclared, was Just as Important, andproduced last year more than themines in money value.

The response to Governor McDonaldwas made by former Governor Bachel-der of New Hamnshlre, who is theworthy master of the National Grange,He said that although in the fortyyears since the organization of thegrange, this was the first meeting heldIn Colorado, yet there had long beena special reason for holding a conven-tion here. This, he said, was the factthat the grange admits women tomembership with equal privileges, andthat the grange is favoring universalsuffrage for men and women.

"We appreciate the greeting youhave given us," he said, "and we willassure you that while we are here youwill need no extra policemen or bar-tenders, but when we leave you mightdo well to watch us in order that wedo not make off with some of yourgrand scenery and invigorating air."

Governor-Elec- t 'Buchtel made ahappy speech and recited a chapterfrom Mr. Dooley relative to Roose-velt's visit to Colorado while vicepresident

WTien Turkey Reignsas Royal Sacrifice.

In Antiquity and American Lineagethe Bird Takes Precedence in

Western Continent.

When Thanksgiving day comes andfamilies gather around the feast ofwhich the turkey reigns as royal sac-

rifice, It is the hour to win opinion re-

garding the American national bird.Long has the eagle soared and

screamed and flapped Its wings, butno day of regard has been put in itsbonor In the calendar.

When it comes to antiquity and atrue American lineage the turkeytakes precedence. Patriotic societiesare finding this out, and committeesare considering the advisability of.making a place for the bird among na-

tional emblems. The eagle is a cos-

mopolitan, the bird of Jove; the tur-

keygenus meleagrls belongs t thewestern continent.

3,'he sacrifice on the altar of thanks-T- í

lug is a Bpecies distinct fromwinged and feathered fowl of a dis-

tant relationship found In Europe.The American turkey was among

the strange birds discovered by theSpaniards when they Invaded Mexico.Oviedo describes it about 1527 as do--

' mestlcated among the christianizedIndians of New Spain (Mexico), andbeing the bird reserved for festivals.Gay describes the gallopavo sylvetris

the wild turkey of New Englandas the wonder of the pilgrim fathers,and from all this data it will be seenthat the turkey has a claim to

tribute.Virginia and Missouri historians

'write of turkey fowls as peculiar totheir wooded hills, but Rhode Island'has laid an official claim to the bestjbred stock that goes abroad. LittleRhody bases its traditions on the cus-

toms of the Narragansett Indians, aitrlbe which once ruled the entire NewEngland area, but became extinct dur-

ing King Philip's war..! The Narragansetts treasured thejturkey as a sacred bird after theirjdays the Nlantlcs took the matter upihoth for the cause of religion and forUhe comfort of their stomachs andithus preserved the species from ex-

junction and brought the Rhode Islandjfame high on the marts that cater to

'feasts and festivals.

'

The Rhode Island turkey lives in,the hills, feasts on Insects and herbs'best calculated to make it delectableito epicures and has become desiredjfrom the Atlantic to the Pacific. The

' .white turkey comés from the confinesiof the state and for some years thepresidential Thanksgiving dinner has

., iheen presided over by an immense- bird of the New England stock,i ' As the Indian and the native cus-- '

toms even of Mistress Anne Hutchln- -

.son-an- Roger Williams are forgottenhv latter day Rhode Island sons and

tafcJlaughters, so the turkey of that pe-

culiar breed Is passing awy. Reportsfrom the state agricultural stationsgive dire statistics of fatal disease

. among the turkeys and the vanishingfrom the land.

In this year Missouri, Indiana andWisconsin are banner turkey states.The-uncu- t timber and rough ground

' are good roving places, and the deadlymicrobe has not found Its way toslaughter' the Innocents.

Thanksgiving Day theOldest of Oar Holidays.

First Enjoined as Religious as Well aiCivic Obligation, the Spirit of

the Season Remains.

It is a season of gladsome tradi-tions. Far away as are our lives fromthose of the little band of colonists olMassachusetts Bay who reverently es-

tablished a day of thanksgiving foimercies which to us seem no morethan the commonplaces of a meagreexistence, the spirit of the occasionsurvives.

Through all the vicissitudes of ournational development, Thanksgivingday has been preserved as peculiarlythe New England memorial. For gen-erations it had a sectional observanceand a limited significance. It was notuntil the white heat of the civil warfused our people of all sections Intoa nation homogeneous, that the NewEngland Thanksgiving was made thatof the whole country.

Since the first proclamation by thepresident, calling for the observanceof a day of thanks for the preserva-tion of the union of the states, the custom has been maintained; the genera-tion of y knows it in this char-acter alone.

This Is the oldest of our holidays.In the early times of sectarian Intol-erance, when church and state werejoined In the rule of Massachusetts,there was no Christmas under thelaw. Observance of the natal day ofthe Prince of Peace was discouraged,If not absolutely prohibited, by harsh

'

enactments. But the recognition ofthe day of thanksgiving was enjoinedas a religious as well as a civic

All this Is changed In the growth ofour people, our commonwealth, ournation, to the stature which we see to-

day. Our whole people unite in the giv-

ing of thanks; and if the religious ele-

ment Is given less prominence In theforms with which the day Is observed,In the hearts of all there Is a no lessreverent gratitude for the benefac-tions with which the Power whichrules the universe has crowned thelife of people and of Individuals Inthis happy age.

We must be glad, every one of us,that we live The conditionof humanity Is not perfect; the-- e arecruel exceptions to universal humanfelicity; but the advance has not onlybeen great but steady and full of mar-velous promise for the race. And asfor the Immediate present, we haveonly to compare existing conditions ofphysical comfort, of Intellectual im-

provement, of moral and social uplift-ing, with those enjoyed by our prede-cessors, to feel a wave of congratula-tion surge over our hearts.

Personally, many of us may feelthat fortune, or providence, has dealtharshly with us during the past year.There have been disappointments,perhaps grievous -- afflictions, whosepain Is not yet dulled. Let such sum-mon up the resources of the faith thatsustained the men of the first Thanksgiving days, who felt as well as be-

lieved that "whom the. Lord loveth,them he chasteneth;" and let all lookforward straight Into the future wherethe sun shines with a glory and agracious warmth unknown to the raceof mankind at any period before thisfavored century.
