People Fret too Much about Trifes.

Women find a sea Of trouble in
their housekeeping. Some one says
they often put as much worry and
anxiety into a loaf of bread, a pie, a
cake, into the weekly washing and
ironing as should suffice for much
weightier matters. Suppose these
things go wrong today, the tomor-
rows are coming inl which to try
again, and the thing lis not worth
clouding your own spirit and those
around you, injuring yourself and
them physically-fOr the mind affects
the body-and for such trifie.
When thing is beyond repair, waste
no useless regrets over it and do no
idle fretting, Strive for that serenity
of spirit that will enable you to make
| the best of all things. That means
! contentment in Its best sense.

Cake
He was bright little chap of four
years, and had been tormenting his
mother, who was engaged about her
household Iuties throughout the morning
for cake.
"Now, Tommy" said she, "if give
you another piece will you promise not
to ask me for any more before din
ner"
Eyes, mamma" he replied.
"Remember our bargain" she said.
"You are not to ask for cake again before
dinner
Eyes, mamma"
"And if you do I'm not to give you
any"
Eyes, mamma"
Thereupou he was handed the coveted
dainty, ans seating himself before the
fire, soon disposed of 1t. After sitting
quiet for a few moments he returned to
his mother and pluckiug her by the apron
said:
"You said you wouldn't give me any
more cake?"

"And l promised not to ask you for

"Then mamma" he said, looking up
with his brightest smile, "what's TO hinder
me having another piece of Pie?"
It's needless to say he got the pie.

Under the query of How Should Ex-

as an addenda to the constitution and by
laws of the Denver Athletic Club. 1t is
equally applicable here:
Little by little, and regularly, for a pro-
longed time. Physical education, like
mental, can not be accomplished by spurts,
but persistent practice will gradually train
each organ of the body SO that it will per
form its proper functions easily and eff
GENTLY. Many are discouraged because
they cannot become skilled gymnasts in a
few weeks and are tempted to abandon
their exercise. But it is the steady work
which tells and those who practice regu-
larry not only enjoy it but receive a last
ing benefit.
For business men half an hours exer-
else a day, at any time except Just after
meals. regularly for a year, will work
wonders.
Boys by frequenting the gymnasium
for a year or two will lay the foundation
of constitutions which will save them from
many inirmities in later life.
Every age and every class will find
something in the gymnasium to compen-
safe for the want of free country air and
exercise, and to preserve them from the
i'll effects of crowded city life.
Everybody admires a finely formed per-

THE DEATH ROLL.
Fourth Name Added to the Lisi of
C. G. N. Victims.
Engineer Madsen Dies in Denver
Sunday.
The Physicians Say Brooks Cannot
Recover.

Chris Madsen, the fourth victim of the
deplorable Decoration day catastrophe on
the Cheyenne & Northern railway,
secumbed to his terrible wounds at the
Denver hospital Sunday. Chief Surgeon
PETER at once notified f. A. Miller, de-
ceased's brother in-law, and the railway
authorities here. Another telegram re-
questing Mr.. Miller to hasten to Denver
and take charge of the remains was re-
ceived Sunday afternoon, and that gentle
man, accompanied by Chris Jepson, rep
r~esenting the Locomotive Engineers
Brotherhood, departed on his sad mission
Sunday night.
The funeral party reached the city on
the 500 o'clock train last evening, and
were met at the train by a large ncour
of sympathizing frienda. Poor Mrs.
Madsen, attired in deep mourning, with
eyes swollen with weeping and still sob
bling, presented a sad and affecting pic
ture. The faithful and loving wife assid-
uously administered to the wants of her
suffering husband from the time of his
injury until his demise, never leaving his
bedside. She was escorted by Mr.. Miller
and a lady friend.
The engineers Brotherhood at once
took charge of the remains of their de-
ceased companion and will supervise the
funeral, which occurs at 2 o'clock this
afternoon from the First Presbyterian
church.
Madsen was a man in the prime of life
and one whom his companions and ac-
quaintances loved to call friend. He was
intelligent, industrious and sociable. Be-
ing possessed of many manly traits, he
respected their presence in the characters
of others. For twelve eventful years he
daily risked his life in the service of the
Union Pacific and received fatal injuries
while at his post. Deceased leaves a wife
and four children to mourn his loss.
Appended is an official notice of the ar
rival OF the remains and foneral. 1t EN-
anates from the Brotherhood:
The remains of Chris Madsen were
brought from Denver last evening on the
$40 train and will be buried to-day at 2 p.
M. at the Presbyterian church by the
Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers.
All friends are invited to attend.
At 9:45 o'clock yesterday morning a
telegram received here stated hat Engi-
neer G. f. Brooks was dying at the Den
yer hospital. Relatives from the western
portion of the territory at once departed
for his bedside.
A dispatch filed in Denver at midnight
chronicled the fact that Brooks condition
was unchanged.
The doctors say that Brooks cannot
| live.

why They Guy, Him.

The engineers have the laugh on Hans
Jensen, a veteran and popular Union
Pacific throttle manipulation. In '%'pulling
out of the yards here with a train the
other morning Jensen was moving things
at a lively rate when he sighted a COW
near the track a few yards ahead of the
locomotive. The whistle was sounded,
but the animal rashly concluded to dispute
the right of way with the engine. The
natural result followed and the joke was
developed when it was learned that Jen-
