The Formal Reception.

Mrs. f. b. Clarke. Mrs. Hoxsle. Mrs.
Judge Giltillan, Mrs. Gen. Bend. Mrs.
Galusha, Mrs. Abel. and several more
OF the patronesses, appeared upon the
platform, took position Oh the west
SIDE OF the stage proper and gave a re-
ceptlon 10 the guests of the floor. This
lasted thirty minutes, during which
time the orchestra played its list of
promenades. the Third Infantry band
occasionally playing part between.
Though very large, the platform
proved almost too small to accommodate
comfortably the immense company
which appeared upon it to dance each
number. Nor was half the company
upon the stage at any time. There
were so many pretty little places, in the
boxes and elsewhere, that knots of two
or three couples were constantly in
possession of them enjoying the charm
ing scene.
The lunch was spread in the front en-
trance in the foyer. The front door was
closed, and large round table was set
i'll the middle of the entrance room. In
the foyer was number of tables. In
the center of each table was an immense
vase full of roses and other costly cut
flowers. The lunch consisted OF salads.
cakes and other light food. Fogg.
the caterer, held forth in the
room on the east side of the entrance.
The music was so arranged that it could
be heard distinctly at all tables. The
arrangements were perfect in all de-
tails, and more enjoyable time was
never had at any charity ball. The
charity ball of 1892 has left bright
recollection in the hearts of all.

A National Family Paper.

The announcements of The Youths
Companion for 1892, which we have
received, seem to touch about all
healthy tastes. Its fiction embraces
folklore, serial, sea, adventure and
holiday stories. Frank Stockton,
Clark Russell, VIII Allen Dromgoole,
Mary Catherine Lee are few of the
distinguished story writers.
Its general articles cover a wide
range. Self Education, Business Sue
cess, College Success, Girls Who
Think They Can Write, Natural His
tory, Railway Life, Boys and Girls at
the Worlds Fair, Glimpse of Roy
atty, How to See Great Cities, Prac-
tical Advice are some of the lines to
be written on by eminent specialists.
Gladstone, De Lesseps, Vasili Yer
estchagin. Cyrus W. Field, Andrew
Carnegie, Mrs. Henry M. Stanley are
among the contributors. The Com
panion readers thus come into per-
sonal touch with the people whose
greatness makes our age famous. Its

appreciated.

The Graves Trial.

On purely circnmstantial evidence
Denver jury found DIR. Graves gull
ty of the murder of Mrs. Barnaby.
who was poisoned last April. The
verdict being sin the first degree"
the penalty is to hang. Some of the
prosecution, who used some very
questionable means of bringing about
this verdict, now fearing that public
opinion will not sustain them, are
attempting to create a prejudice in
their favor.
After the verdict some of Sheriff
Barton's deputies reported that the
doctor had confessed to them on his
way to jail, that he sent the poisoned
whisky. 1t now transpires that
others overheard the conversation,
and that it was altogether on the
part of the deputies; and that the
doctor made no confession whatever.
These bloodhounds should be sat
isfied. The prisoner is found guilty
Of murder in the first degree, with a
possibility of his innocence. His wife
has gone mad, and his aged mother
on the brink of the grave finds her
son convicted Of murder that pos
sibly he never committed.
Great Is the jury system, and when
you seek perfection in that line, go
to Denver. On straight forward
case of murder where proof is album
dant and absolute, they find tho ac-
cused not guilty, or only OF man
slaughter. But if they can convict a
man on suspicion, presuming him
guilty because he was not proven in
nocent, then they are in their glory,
and give him the benefit OF the most
extreme penalty.

The Pueblo Chieftain says that
the Arkansas river which flows
through the city, has by the meas
urem ,nts OF the last three or four
years, about six times the amount OF
water that the South Platte has at
Denver. This means great deal, as
not an acre Of ground can be cult
vated without irrigation, while with
irrigation land here is wonderfully
productive. One thirty acre tract
that was under water last season not
a great way from the city produced
1900 bushels of apples which were
reported sold for $4,000 in the or
chard. With water. thirty or forty
bushels of wheat can be raised per
acre, and eight to ten tons of alfalfa.
The Arkansas valley will have rep
utation for fruit raising at no dis
tant day.

The Successful Man.

Ella Wheeler Wilcox says that il
she were asked to define the mean
ing of of successful man she would
say, "a man who has made happy
home for his wife and children. No
matter what he has not done in the
way of achieving wealth and honor;
if he has done that he is a grand
success. If he has not done that,
and it is his own fault, though he be
the highest in the land, he is most
pitiable failure. I wonder how many
men in the mad pursuit of gold
which characterizes the age, realize
that there is no fortune which can be
left to their families as great as the
memory of happy home.

Plant Trees.

A mental vision of what this coun-
try will be in few years, dotted
over with orchards, groves and vine,
is as near sight of the promised
land, as any of us will get until those
few years are up and the trees and
shrubs are 4 reality.
Nothing adds SO much to the value
of farm for home as a good Or
chard and nice trees. A few dollars
and little work now devoted to that
object will be the greatest paying
investment that any one can make
The only care to be taken now is that
the trees are purchased from reliable
agents. Don't deal with the travel
ing peddlers and take your chances
of getting cheated. If you are de-
frauded in your purchase now it
means, not only the loss of your
money, but what is more, it throws
your contemplated improvement back
at least one year. Deal with your
home men. There are several reli-
able home agents for good nurseries
here, and when they tell you any
thing about their stock you can bank
