EIks Resolutions.

At regular meeting OF Grand juno
tion lodge No. 575 B. P. o. e. held
Monday evening July 10th 1900 the fol-
lowing revolutions were adopted by un-
snimous vote and ordered published in
the newspapers Of this city:
Whereas, On the End day of June,
1900, there was published in the editor
ial columns Of the Grand Junction News
newspaper published in this city, a
vile, scurrllous and most unwarranted
attack upon the sobriety, character and
reputation OF. not only members Of this
lodge, but also upon member OF this or
der, who we're the invited guests of this
lodge. This attack was filled with
falsehood and showed in every line the
malicious spirit by which it was govern
ed. 1t was both cowardly and malicious
in inception and was thus brought to in
jure our order, our lodge and our guests
among our fellow citizens. An oppor
tunity for explanation and retraction
has been given A. G. Newton, the edi
tor OF the News, of which he refuses TO
avail himself; prsferring to lie in his own
wallow of falsehood and cowardice, than
to do even partial justice to his fellow
citizens and their guests, which the
slightest investigation would show to
any just mind, he has most grieveously
wronged.
Be it therefore Resolved, That we now
as a lodge, and individual members
hereof, do now take up this insult to our
order, our guests and ourselves and
make it an individual matter, refusing
all moral support to the Grad juno
ton News and using our influence
against the same among our friends, and
30 continuing until an apoligy sufficient
ly broad and ample as to satisfy this
lodge has been rendered by the said
Grand Junction News.

Gentry's Animal Actors.

The coming of Prof Gentry's dog and
pony show may be looked forward to
this year with greater pleasure than ever
before, for it is stated by good authority
that the performance is all new and
strictly up-to date.
This attraction has always been a
great favorite here, and the engagement
should and doubtless will be a profitable
one.
Prof. Gentry has always provided good
entertainment for his patrons and this
season has eclipsed all former efforts, in
a most marvellous bit OF training that
closes the entertainment in place OF the
old pyramid OF dogs ana ponies.
This show is booked to appear here,
under large water proof tent at Second
and Ute, next Friday afternoon and eve

BAD BLAZE.
A Dwelling Belonging To c. W
Steele Gets Scorched---Fire
a Mystery.

The two story frame house belonging
to G. W. Steele located on Ninth street
between Main and Colorado avenue was
discovered to be on fire shortly after two
o'clock this afternoon. The aremen
made a splendid run and soon had a
stream of water playing on the fire, but
it was not extinguished until several
hundred dollars damage was done.
The dwelling is close to tho one occu-
pied by Mr.. ]. G. Gallup and those pres
ent fearing for the safety OF this house
commenced to move the furniture be-
longing to Mr.. Gallup. Before much of
the furnishings were removed it was
found that it was unnecessary as the
burning building was under coutrol.
1t was not learned whether the yelling
WAS insured.

Thomas M. Patterson may at
times be inconsistent on matters OF

in which Colorado is interested he
has always been found unwavering.
He is for Bryan and silver, as he

were as clear Of conscience on
these matters as Mr.. Patterson,
their own consistency might count

SOME THINGS YOU CAN'T DO.

You can't stand for five minutes
without moving, if you are blind
folded.
You can't stand at the side of a
Don with both of your feet touch
ing the w~ainscoting lengthwise.
You can't get out of a chair with
out bending your body forward or
putting your feet under it, that is,
if you are sitting squarely on the
chair and not on the edge of it.
You cant crush an eggwhen placed
lengthwise between your hands, that
is, if the egg is sound and has the
ordinary shell of a hens egg.
You can't break Il match if the
match is laid across the nail of the
middle finger of either hand and
pressed upon by the first and third
fingers of that hand, despite it's
seeming so easy at first sight.-The
American Boy.

Many a pretty girl 1 have seen in
the sewing-room, at church and on
the street, dressed with taste. care
and elegance, but spoiled in effect by
an ugly frOwn or a sullen, discon-
tented look. 1 was once at school
where we given a black mark
for iTl-natured looks. 1t was a good
rule. 1 think if u mark of discredit
is ever thoroughly deserved it is by
people who go around with cross,
surly or depressed faces. Every one
who comes in contact with or even
meets as a stranger, one of these
walking advertisements of an I'M
happy temper is affected unpleasant
ly by the experience. Once in awhile
I would advise you to look seriously
at your image as flung back by the
pieces of crystal in your own room.
Notice especially the expression on
your face, if you can catch yourself
unawares. Is there a tiny wrinkle
between your brows, one you can't
smooth away?" Do the of
your mouth turn down so as to give
you a look of discomfort, or is there
Il sCornful curve or a cruel intensity
to the shutting of your lips? Be-
ware! You've caught yourself. You
are warned Ada G. Sweet, in the
Woman's Home Companion.

A GOOD NEIGHB0R.

There is large significance in the
phrase, "a good neighbor." 1t means
tact, generosity, thoughtfulness,
sympathy, interest. It implies a
nature having the social quality
coupled with the quality of reserve.
It speaks OF an ear deaf to those
things that relate to family privacy
and an eye open to need. It signifies
a tongue controlled by prudence, a
mind suggestive Of pleasant ways of
helpfulness, a heart impelled to the
doing of little kindnesses.-Sel.

4 PLAIN ANSWER.

Lord PalmerstOn was once address
Ing Al audience at Tiverton when he
was interrupted by a l~oud-voiced
opponent, who demanded, with in
tense earneStneSs
Will my lord give a plain answer
to Il plain question:"
Certainly, with great pleasure, y
was the courteous reply.
will my lord tell US whether he
viii or will not vote for a radical

The audience smiled. There was
4 popular agitation in favor of a new
reform bill, and Lord Palmerston
had shown a disposition to evade the
issue, and not to commit himself on
one side or the other. His reply
came without Il trace of embarrass-
ment, but slowly, n word at a
time:
Il will"
The Liberals began to cheer wildly.
Not" was the next world, and
the Conservatives took up the APP
pause with a counter cheer.
Tell yOu," concluded the orator,
with an innocent smile on his face.
Then every one laughed, and there
was hearty cheering I've the willy

ing recognition and applause from
each party, and in the end saying

80 THE PUBLIC.

My age is fourteen months or so.
I've taught myself to walk,
but L am now concerned to know
How l shall learn to talk;
In fact, how any babe who lives
Both day and night among
His idiOtic relatives
Can learn the English tongue.
And therefore l would make it clear
(Nor deem the act amiss)
What chance have we when all we
hear
Is language such as this:
''Ze peciOus sing !" ''Ole wootsy
wOOts !"
His muzzer's tunnin' pet I"
''Ze itty, pity, witty toots :"
"NOw what does danma det?"
They tell me that drink'sa "dink :"
My fingers ''fngies' are:
That think is ''sink," or also fink"
And that a cars a ''tar."
With ''tumpty lump and ''bow WOW
wow"
And Oddly, Oddly, dee"
And other phrases that, l VOW,
Are useless, quite, to me
So, when from mother, aunt and all
I've gained Il moments grace,
With none to clutch me lest l fall,
Or stare M in the face,
I've printed out this statement rude
(The letters learned with pain,
From cans of patent baby fOod)
And hope It's not in vain.

When a woman wants to get even
with a man she marries him.
If every woman were given her
choice between being handsome and
talented, we should have very few
talented women.
There may be some Heaven sent
geniuses who can make others feel
without themselves having felt and
suffered, but they are rare. The
most of those who attempt it only
succeed in making others suffer.-W.

A BAD BOY IN 1880.

Mrs. Joseph Pennell writes in the
November St. Nicholas of Children
and Courtesy Four Hundred Years
Ago" and incidentally tells of a bad
boy of the fourteenth century.
There was a writer called Lydgate,
she says, who lived just about the
time some of the books of curtesie
were composed, and who wrote Il
poem, ~cOnfessing his wickedness as a
boy, that gives US. Il better idea of
what went on even then. Lydgate,
it seems was not sent to a mobiles
house, but was brought up by the
monks and went to one of their
schools. He says that until he was
fifteen he loved no work but play |
think [ have heard of boys today
who have exactly his taste in the
matter. He was afraid of the rod,
naturally, for it was never spared
when he was u child. Little girls
were then taught to look upon
sharp and severe parents" as the
greatest benefit they could receive,
and there is the record of one. Eliza
beth Passion by name, who was
beaten once or twice d week, some
times twice a day, and on n Occa-
sion had her head broken in two or
three places. Poor little thing! Ii
this is the way the girls yer treated,
you can imagine the fate of the
boys. But, fear the rod as he might,
Lydgate was still late at school; he
talked when he ought to have been
studying he told stories to get out
of scrapes he made fun of his mas
tiers he stole apples and grapes oh,
dear oh, dear he liked counting
cherry-stones better than church he
wouldn't get up in the morning; he
wouldn't wash his hands before din
ner he pretended to be i'll when he
WASH t he never thought Of anybody
when there was question of his own
pleasure and, a]ltOtether, he was
! about as bad a boy as could be found
from one end of England to the
other. I don't believe u old friend
Frederick, who did so many naughty
things in the nursery rhyme, was
one bit worse. But, that bad boys
NAV take heart and know that there
is hope, I must add that Lydgate
grew up to be a great man, whose
reputation has lasted to our day.
and that he wrote many poems,
among them this confession of the
apple stealing and manipulating OF
his school days.

TRUE N%OBLENEss.

For this true nobleness 1 seek in
vain,
In woman and in man find it not:
l almost weary of my earthly lot,
My hfesprings were dried up with
burning pain.
Thou fndst it not? 1 pray thee look
again,
Look inward, through the depths of
thine own soul,
How is it with thee? Art thou sound
and whole?
Doth narrow search show thee no
earthly stain?
Be noble and the nObleness that
lies
In other men, sleeping, but never
dead,
Will rise in majesty to meet thine
own
Then wilt thou see it CLEAN in many
eyes,
Then will pure light around thy path
be shed.
And thou wilt never more be sad
and lone.

HEART SEARCHING.

If you and l ware to enter into
possession of our heritage in Christ
Jesus, we must first deal definitely
with God about our sins. We must
examine ourselves to discover them,
and when they are discovered we
must drag them forth, that in Gods
presence they may be slain. To this
work we now set ourselves. My OBJ
ject will be to help you to make it
thorough.
What, then, is it in your life that
hinders you from actually experience
ing the fulillment of Gods promises?
Is it some act or course or habit of
wrong doing? 1t may be something
in your secret life-the life of which
none but God knOws-sOme habit of
thought, some exercise of the i'm
agination that is impure and unholy.
1t may be some book that is read in
secret-tasted as d forbidden thing,
and sweeter because forbidden. 1t
may be some course of action which
breaks and destroys communion with
God. 1t may be something in your
family Observation-Disclosures in mat
tiers of eating or drinking or dress.
1t may be selfiShnesS-an unwilling
ness to consult the comfort of those
that live with us-ill temper, irrita-
Dility, the habit of frettulness and
complaining when things are not
exactly as you would wish them
to be.
Or perhaps it is something in your
social life. 1t may be d certain pride,
an envy of some one more highly
placed. 1t may habit of evil speak
ing, OF II certaian untruthfulness.
Or perhaps the hindrance lies in
worldly conformity. You love the
pleasures of the world, and for the
sake Of those dear to you, you plunge
into them, acting in direct dISobedi-
ence to the command, Come We out
from among them, and be ye sepa-
rate"
Or it may be the trouble with you
lies in your business life. Your love
of money and your eager pursuit OF
it have hindered you in the Christian
race. Your heart condemns you,
now that IN your business you have
been, as you say, compelled to follow
worldly ways. You are conscious OF
d certain irritation at being asked to
examine your business life. That
irritation Is the evidence that sOme-
thing Is wrong. Search yourselves,
