Scenes Of Youth.

"Let me see the trees; they are so beau-
tiful," said poor Mckinley, in the hour
of his mortal weakness, when the nurses
at Milburn house sought to shade the win
dows and exclude the light from the sick
room Of the dying President. after saw
him tumble with the sheets and play with
flowers and smile upon his fingers ends"
said Mistress Quickly In telling OF Sir John
Falstaff ''I knew there was but one way;
for his nose was sharp as pen, and a.
babbled of green fields" Garfield, wasted
by insidious poison and brought to the
brink Of the grave by weeks OF enervating
fatigue, yearned for the fresh breath OF
the sea, and talked in his final delirium Of
the verdant and peaceful scenes OF his
childhood.
So 1t is with us all. The President who
died at Buffalo this morning did not dwell
in his last moments on the glory and
pride of his high station. His recollections
went back to the joyous and sunny scenes
of his happy youth; when the green grass
and the flowers and the fluttering leaves
and the singing birds told their happy
story Of hope and promise. Back over The
eventful years Of his distinguished life. his
mind swiftly travelled, 1t may be believed.
to some verdant and shady spot where he
dreamed Of the future and cOmmuned with
the sweet things Of nature Thus 1t is
that the presence OF death belittles earthly
power and pride; thus 1t Is that the Anal
reckoning with the Author OF Life brings
us face to face with the primitive eie-
ments OF our trust In the mysterious prob.
lem OF human existence.

New Case of Smallpox.

A well developed case OF smallpox was
discovered this morning in the Grand
Junction Business College, through the
alertness OF one Of the scholars.
One OF the students, a young man by
the name OF Christine, was broken out,
all over his neck and face. This alarmed
one OF the scholars, and she, without
telling her suspicious to any one except
the teachers, went for DR.. Taylor, city
physician. The young man was invited
without the school room, and upon max
ing an examination OF the young man in
his office, DR.. Taylor pronounced it a
well defined case Of smallpox.
Christine was at once sent to his board
ing house near the corner OF Ninth and
Main streets, and quarantined there IN
til this afternoon, when he WAS sent to
the pest house.
The boarding house is kept by a family
named Winchester, and in the house, be
side the immediate family, are several
other boarders who have been exposed
to the disease.
The young mau has but recently come
fr IN the mountains near Fruita, and as
he felt unwell, he was under the care Of
DR.. Capps, although it is nearly week
since he last went to see the physician.
He has been about the city, in public
places, for the past few days, and it will
b. strange indeed If great many people
have not been exposed to the disease. All
the students OF the business college GER
taiuly have, aud DR.. Taylor, the city
physician, was alert, locating all the
students and having them vaccinated and
disiufected.
The names OF the students we're given
to Special Officer John Dickerson and he
at once started to notify all to have their
clothes fumigated and also to be vaccina-
ted, il they have not already been.

Some uousework Figures.

A Vermont man, with fondness for
figures, has produced the following:
I'VE have often heard of women dish
washing their lives away, but did any
one ever think of the number of times,
reduced to actual figures, the table has
been spread, cleared of dishes washed
and put away during 80 years? Ablack
walnut dining table has been in use in
my family for 80 years. In that period
this table has been spread 80, $50 times,
and as many times cleared and the
dishes washed. My family averaged
five during that time, making 164,25o
meals eaten from that table. At the
low price of 10 cents per meal these
would amount to S24,637.50. These fig
ures are small compared with 60 years
of continuous service which some time $
happens, but they show how women
cheerfully do their duties from the
cradle to the grave"

cooP AND RUN FOR CHICKS

small slide door is made on one side
of the coop, and the run is placed so
the opening in the side comes oppo-
site this door. AT night the chicks
can be shut in the coop by closing the
slide door, and this makes it easy to
move them to fresh ground frequent
ly. When the chicks are thus inclosed
they are safe from all animals or what
ever could harm them. Last year I

hen, in such n coop and run, and did
not lose one of them, while formerly

cannot get away, and there is but little
danger of her leaving her eggs. For
making the coops Ibuy large boxes at

run has only been about two dollars
when they were made by carpenter.

reached it's height. Before the resort
season opened there was a noticeable
demand for artificial flowers for trim

for the hens with chicks. The coops
are about four feet square, and are
made very much like portable hen

so tight that nothing can get in them

closed. With each coop have a COW

natural color will usually be sadly
bedraggled affair before the gayeties
of the evening are nearly over. For this
reason the wise woman sticks to the
artificial flowers even though she
could we'll afford the cost of the nat
ural blossoms if she desired them, and
the would-be fashion leaders are seek
ing for a new and more popular nov
city.
But while the wise woman has con-
fined her dress trimmings to natural
flowers she has not confined herself
TO the limited use of them that was
in vogue at the opening of the season.
At that time few blossoms on the
low corsage to match the natural ones
worn in her hair constituted about
the extent of the vogue, but to-day
this limited use has given place to long
wreaths that are woven upon the
skirt, around the waist and shoulders
and allowed to fall in long ends tc
the very hem of the skirt. A number
of such gowns add much to the pic
turesqueness of n brilliantly lighted
ballroom. They are now the vogue OF
Ine uouT dI NSN Pott, anu viii Piop-
ably remain so until the close of the
season, but they constitute one of
those fads that seldom last through
more than one season.
The most popular flowers for this
sort of elaboration are forge et-me-nots,
daisies, roses, poppies. geraniums and
!, lilies of the valley, with maiden-Eair
fern and smilaX for foliage. There are
a few who have gone into the elabora
tton more e$pensively and have used
orchids, which even though but ar
tificial, are the most expensive for this
form of trimming. 1t is the green ferns
and smilaX that are used in their nat
ural state as n rule, and so arranged
that they may be replaced for each
new occasion.
One of these flower decorated gowns
is of pure white embroidered Swiss,
trimmed with mauve orchids. 1t is
made with square decollete bodice,
with very narrow straps over the
shoulders. The bodice is slightly
pouched in front, and fastened down
the back. On She left shoulder is a
large bunch of orchids, from which
a wreath of the flowers crosses the cor
sage and extends to the waist line, and
Z from there falls in two long trails to
the hem of the skirt. The skirt is
made with great width, and ii is hand
somely embroidered halfway up.
A bodice on which the floral decora-
ton is much more simple is made of
white Swiss mousseline. The mousse
line is draped in a low pointed deool-
lete, with large pompon of the nous
seline at one side. A very small puff
ing over the shoulders extends
down ways over the arm. The fiorai
decoration consists of a large bunch OF
black and white narcissus, whose vel
vet petals are centered with yellow,
falling from the left shoulder.

THE AMERICAN BREEDS.
Many Promising Plymouth Rocks
and WyundOttes Are Positively
Spoiled by Overweight

Farm-Poultry, an influential Bos-
ton publication, has of late been invit-
ing opinions concerning the proper
weight of the American breeds of
chickens, among which are the Ply
mouth Rocks and the Wyandottes. We
should say that fully two-thirds of
the breeders who have expressed
themselves on the subject take the po-
sition that the standard weight is too
high. 1t is claimed that the medium
sized birds of these families are al
most invariably better layers than
those which meet the demands of the
standard in regard to weight. One
well-lSnown poultry judge, in his con-
tribution to the discussion, says that
not more than one Plymouth Rock in
II which pass through his hands at
the shows is up to standard weight. If
the men who patronize the shows meet
with difficulty in getting their birds up
to standard weight, how much more of
n task it must be for farmers who,
as a rule, can give but fraction of
their time to the study of the prob
lens of the poultry yard I? And if this
heavy weight is obtained at the sacri-
flee of the laying qualities why not
cut it down? Some advertisers take
great pains to have it known that their
birds are fully up to standard weight.
Farmers should know that they can
easily pay more money for that kind
of Plymouth Rocks and Wyandottes
than they are worth.

Flowers Are Favored
for Decorating Gowns
The Vogue Increases Noticcaby as the

Another pretty bodice is composed
of soft cream silk and guipure lace,
trimmed with vivid pink and scarlet
geraniums. The silk is in deep folds
around the bodice, with pointed
front and back basque effect. The
lace is in a short bolero, with a large
bunch of geraniums on the right shoul-
der. A long trail of tender green
smilaX reaches to the waist line, with
bunch of velvet geraniums to finish.
With the flower decorated toilettes
for evening wear should go the flow
cred muslin gowns that are considered
chic for the afternoon. The simple
charm of these gowns is often supple
mented by some sort of fancy silk coat,
either fitted or loose. The ideal mus
lin gown to wear with such a coat is
ruffied from the hem to the knee. Mar
row plaitings overlapping one an
other in the old-fashioned manner are
especially in harmony with the loose

PACIFIC OCEAN TURNS RED.
A Most Remarkable Phenomenon Is
Witnessed Along tho California
C0auf.

Following the earthquake shocks
that visited the California coast pc
culiar phenomena have developed in
the Pacific ocean. Within a distance
or 65 miles along the Los Angeles
county shore line the waters, hereto
fore clear and of the usual greenish
color have become terra Gotta red.
This color line extends off shore for
several miles, and is so distasteful
to the fish family that they have
gone far into the ocean to seek clear
er waters. At night this colored sea
water gives off a phosphorescent
light that enables one to read aver
age print.
AT a certain point along the beach
the water has turned into sweet
water that can be drunk. No theory
is advanced except that in the Pacific
off the coast, the earthquake opened
a fissure that forces fresh water and
colored matter to the surface, and
the latter is drifting to the shore. A
tidal wave followed the earthquake
