to stop the pillage of Jewish house. Everywhere
the windows Of the Jewish quarters were shattered
and shops looted. The orthodox Russians and for
eigners FASTENED to displavin their windows hang
out their doors the sacred ikons and other relg

from their servants. In the poor Jewish quarters,
Latin crosses were chalked on the doors and walls

Cheers For The Flag.

The Denver Republicans dis
patches from San Francisco telling
of the cheers that were given the
tattered flag of the First Colorado
in San Francisco, thrilled many a
loyal heart at home.
But n few months ago that flag
was cheered as it waved over the
heads of the brave boys who were
leaving Colorado to face death in
strange land. 1t was cheered when
its silken folds huttered proudly
over the Spanish stronghold at
Manila the first American colors
to fly over the eastern possessions
of the dons. 1t was cheered by
the boys themselves after the win
ming of many struggle with Agui-
naldo's followers and it is not
strange that it was cheered by the
good people of San Francisco when
it was carried so proudly through
the streets of the metropolis of the
western slope.
The greatest cheer of all will
come when the tattered flag is kiss
ed into new life by the sun-laden
breezes of Colorado. The loyal
Colorado Heart is beating with
eagerness and Colorado eyes will
be strained to catch the first sight
of the iwar-worn banner. The tat
tered strips of red white and blue
mean more to the state than tongue
or pen can tell, and when they hut-
ter over the heads of the home
welcomed boys there will be tears
as well as cheers in the greeting

LASHES ANTI-AMERlCANLIARS

While General Charles King was
in Chicago the other day he was
interviewed by representatives of
three Chicago newspapers on the
subject of the war in the Philip
pines One of the newspapers
the Inter-Ocean-gave correct
account of what he said The
others travestied his remarks
into the semblance of criticism
of the conduct of the war. Gen
eral King writes to the Inter
Ocean to the purport set forth
above, acknowledging the accuracy
of its report and denouncing as ut
terly false the statement elsewhere
attributed TO him that the Filpinos
are stronger now than at the COM
mencement of the war. The Inter
Ocean publishes his letter on its
editorial page, and lashes the ly-
ing newspapers with right good
will. as they abundantly deserve
Here is the unequivocal manner
in which it indicates that it is not
on the side of the people who are
shooting at the flag and the SOL

HACK SYSTEM WORKS WELL
Monday Night, However, VIII Be the
Supreme Test,

The system for hacks conveying patrons
TO the Grand Opera worked with less con-
fusion last night than on the night of it's
inauguration. In fact. il may be said to
be operating like a charm. Sergeant
German is jubilant. The audience seemed
to fully understand the system, and after
passing out, dividing into three bodies,
was quickly picked up and driven away.
leaving the block deserted within fifteen
minutes after the curtain had dropped on
the last act.
Next Monday night will be the supreme
test. The police will have charge of the
private carriages and those belonging to
companies outside Of the combination and
those who make their way to the main
entrance. The hack inspectors will man
age the hacks on the other entrances, and
all are confident of success. 1t is be-
lieved that fully six hundred vehicles will
form the lines on that night. Half the
confusion would not have occurred on
Wednesday evening were it not for the
heavy rain, which compelled every car
rfage to pass under one awning.
