DIVISION IN COLORADO.
Contesting Delegations to Kansas
z Citv a PossibiIitv.

Denver, Colo, June 6.-Contesting dele
cations from Colorado to the national
Democratic convention are among the
possibilities resulting from the split in
this city.
Two sets of delegates from Denver and
Arapahoe county are seeking admission
to the safe convention, which will meet
i'll this city tomorrow for the election of
delegates at large to the Kansas City
convention. One set of delegates repre-
who refused to be governed by the action
of the committee headed by Thomas j.
Maloney. Fearing that Chairman Milton
Smith of the state committee will seat
the Maloney delegates, the friends of
Governor, Thomas on the state committee
held a conference today with a view to
taking steps to forestall such action and
from this 1t is inferred that if the Thomas
delegation us excluded from the present
state convention another convention may
be called. -
Meanwhile, strong efforts are Being
made by prominent members of the party
to bring aboutfa compromise between the

BABY's PRETTY cURLs.
Pulled Them Off in Car and Embar-
raised Her Mamma.
lPhiladelnhia Times


A well-dressed woman with a beau
tiful baby in her arms attracted the
attention of all the passengers on a
German town car. Every one was fas-
cinated by the baby's pretty and smil-
ing face and particularly by two golden
curls which hung down her cheeks.
After While the child became nerv-
Gus and began to tug at one of the
curlS which protruded from her hood
The woman, presumably her mother
quickly stopped her, but few moments
later she looked out of the window.
No sooner was her face turned than
the child seized her bonnet with both
hands and pulled ii off. 1t offered little
resistance, but to the establishment of
every one on the car the curls came
with it, and the supposed golden-haired
baby showed that in reality its head
was without the semblance of a hair.
The child swung the bonnet to and
fro and laughingly held it up for the
inspection of the other passengers. 1t
was almost a minute before the woman
turned around. When she Jaw what
the baby had done, her face flushed.
and without a word she picked UP the
child and walked sedately out of the
car. When last seen she was trudging
down Spring Garden street with the
baby tucked under her arm like a sack
Of oats, but still holding tightly to the
bonnet and cooning, See my pooty

WANT PORTO RICANS.
Hawaiian Sugar Planters Plan to
Import Laborers

Chicago, June "a special dispatch
to the Chicago Record from Honolu-
III. Nav %, via San Francisco, says:
a convention Of sugar planters and
other employers of labor in all parts of
the islands has been called to meet in
Honolulu June to consider the queS-
ton of a labor supply. With the end
of imported contract labor, together
with the apparent probability that
there will be legislation against the
further immigration of Japanese into
ALL parts of the United States, the
planters have been led to look else
where for a labor supply.
One proposition that will be brought
before the convention is to import la
borers from Porto Rico. 1t is thought
that the Porto Ricans are accustomed
to sugar cultivation and that the de-
vaStating hurricane of = few months
ago has created q surplus of labor
there which can be utilized here. Out
side of the planters there is opposi
ton to the scheme.
Plans for the inauguration of Govern
or Dole and the territorial government
are well under way. June IA, the day
when the territorial act goes into eff
feet, has been declared a holiday. 1t is
expected that hundreds of people will
be here from other islands. The an

ONE WORD.

One word of needless, idle chaff
VIII bad us merry be and laugh;
A single word can make us glad,
Another still, depressed and sad
A little word can bring heartache,
Oft oft indeed, heart can break.
One word Outlines car make US see
Right through the dire perplexity;
Can quickly settle long dispute
The blacklist calumnY refute:
one word may seal a nations fate
Allotment change of whole estate.
A word, aye, one, can mischief brew.
Cause pain and anguish TO ensue;
one word can sharply criticise
Severely. bitterly chastiSe:
one timely word may warning bring
Another plant a deathless sting
one word may doubly give assurance
Gnknowingly prolong endurance:
one word may tighten, cheer and bless
The darkest hour of dark distress:
Urge on the dropping, fainting soul
At any cost, TO win the goal
a word may oft estrange friends fond.
OF trembling slave undo the bond:
one word may faith and honor kill.
Dreams of lifetime blight and chill;
one whispered word may be a PRAYER.
A sobbing cry of grief and care
A word may gently backward swing
The gates of memory and bring
Dear days and years when skies were
blue,
And clouds afar, afar and few;
A word may wOndrouS love confess
A thousand newborn hopes express.

Balzac looked at her earnestly for a
second and laughed heartily. Then he
remarked in a serious voice, as though
weighing every word he said:
Perhaps the secret lies in the sim
pie fact that the woman of twenty
must be pleased, while the woman of
forty tries to please, and the older
woman's power consists, not as has
been often said, in understanding and

more than is absolutely necessary to-
ward placing the navy eXpeditiOusly
in the proper condition universally de
manded by the people for the national
defense.
Much of the natural increase in the
treasury, war and navy departments
is incident to the war with Spain, al
though no part of it is included in the
table which is submitted of increased
appropriations on account of the war.
Under permanent appropriations,
aside from 100000 for interest on the
war loan. two considerable increases
appear; one for $4,000,000 for the re-
demption of circulating notes of ma
tiOnal banks out of funds deposited
with the treasury for that DurpOse-the
transaction being purely one of book
keeping and in no way affecting the
public funds. The amount of estimated
assumptions out of bank funds is sim
ply $4,000 900 greater than in 1898. and
by process of bookkeeping that amount
is added to the appropriation for 1901.
An increase of 1000, goo is made in
the amount estimated to meet the re-
duirements of the sinking fund for
1901 over the sum estimated and in
Guided in the appropriations for 1898.
This increase is on account of the
Spanish war loan of 5000 100000
THE amounts. as nearly as they can
be arrived at, appropriated on account
of or incident to the war with Spain
during each of the three sessions of
congress held since the beginning of
that war are set forth in detail. The
amounts thus appropriated during the
session of the last congress covered the
period to the close of the fiscal year
1900 and aggregated $4S2, $50. 0S3.
"Of this whole sum it is estimated by
the treasury department that to June
80 the total expenditures will not eX-
coed $780,, 600, 900, leaving a surplus of
10000 600 after meeting outstanding
obligations to be covered into the
treasury. Thus. for the conduct of that
momentous war and its resultant eff
fects, congress amply made appropria-
tions. and the administration has wise
ly and prudently made expenditures
from the liberal sums thus placed at
its disposal"

by Senator Allison, chairman of the
senate committee on appropriations,
and Chairman Cannon of the house
committee on appropriations, in ac
cordance with custom. The statement
says:
THE appropriations made by the

cludes $137, 247,155 estimated to be on

remaining amount, $57S, 4S2, 321, repre-

No Vacation For Catholics.

This is the season of the year when
the difference between the character
OF the Catholic and the non-Catholic
churches become most manifest The
preachers are closing up their churches
during the hot months of the summer
and hieing themselves away to pleas
ant places to spend the heated season.
We do not blame people for doing this
whose estimate of their business is that
it can wait. But our own priests, who
do not believe that the business of
Christ may wait at any time, are not
betaking themselves to the woods and
the SeaShOre in any great numbers.
From the Atlantic to the Pacific and
from the northerly boundary of the
country TO the shores which are Tapped
by the Gulf of Mexico one can find no
Catholic church which is shut uD be-
cause of the heated season or because
the pastor thereof must needs have
rest. Our priests, and TO their honor
be it said, recognize that their day of
rest is not Of the kingdom of this earth,
and consequently they work and work
and work, with only occasional inter
missions. until the end comes with its
completeness of rest.
The devil is none the less busy in
the heated season than in the cooler
one. For ourselves, we sometimes in
cline to the theory that he is a little
more so. There is no less pressing
necessity of worship and instruction
during that season than during any
other. Therefore, there is as much need
of church services as at any other time
during the year At that time. more
than any other. there is a tendency
toward laXity in the performance of re-
ligious duties. 1t would i'll become the
Church to show favor to the weakness
OF her children in this direction by con-
senting to their absence from divine
worship at the stated times and places
prescribed by her rule. Therefore, the
summer vacation is a thing unknown
TO our people and properly so, and the
absence, of it becomes more marked and
more noteworthy by the contrast with

REPLY MADE TO CLARK
Senate Committee Tell Their
Side of Investigation.

Washington, June 6.-Senator Chand-
Ter, from the committee on privileges
and elections, today presented d sup
Elemental report on the case of Senator
Clark of Montana, replying to the stric-
lures upon the committee made by SEN
ator Clark in his speech, and also to
the minority report in the case, made
by Senators Harris and Pettus.
The report takes UP and replies SER
latin 10 Mr.. Clark's criticisms, the
charges being either denied or reasons
given.
Replying to the charge of unjudicial
methods of proceeding, the committee
asserts that these were only resorted
to in order to discover additional testi-
mony, and that the statements thus adj
mitted were not permitted to influence
the result.
THE methods of the committee were
in no sense unfair" says the report,
but were such as ordinarily prevail in
Investigations like this. The presump-
ton of innocence was at no time disre-
garded, and the findings favorable to
Mr.. Clark were made as a court or jury
would have made them, upon full and
fair consideration of all the facts in
the case"
The committee stands by its original
position that Mr.. Clark was, from the
beginning of the campaign, a candi-
date for the senate, and SAYS that
nothing since the hearing closed has
tended to impair the facts stated con-
corning Senator Clark's own personal
connection with the course of his can
vass for election as senator"
Senator Chandler, as chairman of the
committee, adds a memorandum of his
own IN refutation Of the statement of
the minority that 1.-The chairman left
the committee little to do" This criti-s
cism, he says, is unjust, and says:
THE chairman did nothing except
what such an officer is expected to do
He also asserts that 80 far as Sena-
tor Clark was concerned, there was no
refusal to summon any witness whom
his counsel insisted upon obtaining"
