In the matter of church going and
worship a request was made to resi-
dent ministers, to close Sunday schools
and church until all danger had
passed. The ministers i'll reply stated
they would gladly abide by decision
of board aud in return presented a
request that all saloons he kindly re-
quested to close.
In view of the fact that a large num-
Der of children were III the habit OF
congregating upon certain streets it
was deemed advisable to notify par
ents to keep children in their yard as
much as possible. The marshal was
instructed to disperse the gathering
of children in streets. The marsha
was also notified to make the arrest
of any and all individuals breaking
quarantine.
AS the CITY marshal had not suffi
cient time to attend to quarantnet

THE TRAMWAY CASE.

Denver, Nov. 26-Judge Pal
mer's decision in the tramway case
was handed down today, after
delay of 302 days. In his opin-
ion he holds that the tramway is a
street railway aud not railroad
The effect of the decision is that
the company must pay the addi-
tional $4,000 taxes assessed
against it, and $4,000 more in
accrued interest.
When the opinion was handed
down Attorney Stevenson asked
that it not go into effect for few
days until he could consult with
his clients. The court gave him
until Thursday.
1t is not thought likely that the
case will be appealed, but that the
company will pay the additional

of the president who are very close
to him and who spend consider
able time at the white house, to-
day make the assertion that the
president has completed his mes
sage.
Among other things the presi-
dent will say that owing to our
increase of territory, the reorgani-
zation of the army is necessary.
He will say that with the acquisi-
ton of Hawaii and the Philippines
the need of more toops is apparent
that the United States has ac-
quired such possessions in the
Orient that they can be best
maintained by show of force.
The president will also quote
reports, it is said, from different
military and civil officials, includ-
ing the secretary of war, that are
highly complimentary to the
Cubans on their peaceful disposi-
tions, and of the manner in which
they are already learning the les
sons of self government. The
hope will be expressed that before
another message to congress is
written, new and independent
nation will have been born on the
Western hemisphere, under the

While here Warden johnson
received word from man who

camp few days before. He said
they had large quantities of meat
and skins. Tomorrow morning
the game wardens will meet the

A DIscOycry by Chance,

Finiguerra. the master Of early en-
craving, delighted In doing deeds of
kindness. One day q washerwoman
In washing piece Of clothing In which
a needle had been carelessly left had
the misfortune to run 1t into her hand.
The needle broke, and more than half
of It was left imhedded in the flesh. 1t
gave her much pain, and as soon as she
could she went to Finiguerra's studio,
put down the bundle Of damp clothes
that she was carrying to their owner
and asked the artist to help her. After
much patient, careful manipulation
with his fine tools he succeeded in ex-
tracing the broken needle,
The woman thanked him, and as she
lifted her damp bundle to leave the
studio Finlgucrra noticed that 1t had
rested upon one Of his cngravings and
had received an excellent impression
from it. The engraving, like all Others
of that time. was metal plate com
plete In itself and was regarded ms a
single picture. The impression made
upon the damp cloth suggested to the
alert mind of Finicuerra the possibility
Of producing an indefinite number of
pictures from single original, BY eX-
perimcntiug he perfected his discovery
and eventually made It possible for all
homes to have beautiful engravings,
for previous to his discovery only the
wealthy could afford them.

CrfHin OF Cake Walk.

The cake walk proper had Its origin
among the French negroes OF Loulsl-
ana more than century ago, says the
New Orleans Times Democrat. There
IA little doubt that 1t Is an OffShoot or
some of the old French country dances
It resembles several of them in form.
From New Orleans 1t spread over the
entire south and thence north. 1t was
found Of convenience to the plantation
negroes. They We're not welded by IL
cense. and 1t was seldom that the serv-
ices OF preacher were called IN. Az
cake walk man might legitimately
show his preference for woman and
thus publicly claim her for wife.
In effect the cake walk was not diff
ferent from the old Scotch marriage
which required only public acknowl-
edgment from the contracting parties.
So this festival became In some sense
a wooing, an acceptance or rejection
and a ceremony. This explains Its pop
ularity with the blacks outside of Its
beauties, with the accompaniment OF
music, which is competent at all times
to command negro support.
Cake walking has improved, as do
most things that are constantly prac-
ticed. 1t has lost its old significance
In the south Negroes now get married
when they marry at all in the white
folks fashion 1t has become howev-
er, q pantomime dance. Properly per
formed, 1t is beautiful one. The cake
is not much of prize, though the ne
gro has sweet tooth.

Many hands went up. Quick MS

1t was true. The young man had
been presuming and ofiicious. He had
held up his hand, but he could not bear
Tended himself, only making matters
worse Then another minister broke
forth and berated Mr.. Moody for his
bluntness The latter blushed, but lis

Millikin waits on customers at the gro

counts for slight oversight of Mr.
