Samuel Perry Spencer, who is
mentioned as candidate for gov
ernor on the Democratic ticket by
friends on the Western slope, was
born near Cambridge, Md, in the
year 1858. His youth was spent
in Baltimore and he removed to
Colorado in the spring of 1880,
outfitted in Denver and went to
Gunnison by team at once. He
has resided in that county ever
since. He first located in the
boom mining camp of Irwin, en-
gaging in mining and real estate
business. He became active in
Democratic councils and served as
clerk, treasurer and mayor of Ir-
win while residing there four years
Removing to Crested Butte he en-
gagged in the transfer and freight
ing business and during Cleve-
J lands first administration served
as postmaster of that place. He
resigned as postmaster, having
been elected clerk aud recorder of
Gunnison county, which position
he held for four terms. He declin-
ed to run for fifth term, retiring
in January, 1898, and was shortly
thereafter elected president of the
First National bank of Gunnison,
which position he still holds. Mr..
Spencer has never met with de-
feat at the polls, although he al
most invariably had to overcome
adverse political majorities. He is
man of powerful physique, CON-
manding presence, with handsome
intellectual features. His keen eye
looks a questioner through and
seems to penetrate the motive and
nat ure of a question before it is
asked. He was married in 1890 tc
Miss Josephine Axtell, the young.
est daughter of the late V. f. AK.
tell, one of the founders of Crestec
Butte. Mrs. Spencer, at the time
of her morriage, was a student a
Wolfe hall, Denver. They have
two children, daughter, aged IL
and a son, aged 4 years. = News.

MISS KENNEDY'S CASE
WHY SHE LEFT HER STUDIES
AT THE HIGH SCHOOL.
Every Mother OF Growing Girl VIII Be
Interested In the Story as told by the
Young Lady Herself.

The circumstances under which Bertha Kennedy
taken from her studies In the high school
win be of interest to all mothers OF growing girls.
Miss Kennedy said TO reporter:
when I fourteen years old I began to
decline in health on account Of suppression OF
the natural functions OF my sex, and 1 am sure
would never have been the healthy girl I am
now IL 1t had not been for DR.. williams Pink
Pills for Pale People. I was entirely without
color, thin as rail, and irritable. tired
and hfeless and in seriously low state of health
In general. Although a good doctor was treating
me. he failed to do any good and my parents felt
very much alarmed about me.
Il was taken from the high school on account
OF my poor health, but continued to grow worse.
Then began to take DIR. Williams Pink Pills,
and with the first few doses began to feel better.
Four boxes brought about the desired result and
a few boxes restored me entirely to health.
Now l have q good color, strong and active
and have not Il sick day from that time to
the present

the above statement.
No discovery OF modern times has proved such
blessing to women as Or. Williams Pink Pills for

hats-and when these are worn by the right
person along with a dark frieZe dress they
look extremely welfare best trimmed with
combination of black and white. l have
come across a good example with the brim
decked underneath with narrow quillings
of white lawn edged with black lace, while
on the back of the crown were two black
wings. A knot of bright red velvet rested
on the hair at the side of the front. Para
disc plumes wave on all sides Of more ex-
pensive models in millinery and, alas, the
osprey does not seem to have exactly gone
1t seems hardly possible after these de-
scriptions to tell you that extreme SIM
plicity is the keynote of the most exclusive
CONNECTIONS. The exquisite fitness of all
these rich materials is brought out with a
few deftly laid folds of velvet or silk. A
great quantity of this silk IS used on hats
and composes entirely some of the smartest
ones There is quite a simple hat which
will be very effective when worn. 1t is a
creation of black velvet. The brim is form
ed of coquilles piped with satin and bound
round the top with ermine. black os-
trich tip and osprey lend i'm portance to the

grewsome and somber. My girl friends
could not do better than try these, espe-
cially if their furs are either ermine, fox or
pale gray chinchila. For teas and recep-
TONS and I might add for luncheons, these
hats are very nice.
You may extend your admiration to hat
which was the model for bevy of brides,
maids 1t was of pale pink panne draped
with lovely Alencon lace held at the back
with cut steel rings. This was indeed a
dainty piece of headgear. A toreador at
fair was a study in black and white, the
crown in ermine silk plush and the brim
embroidered on chiffon with black ana
white designs. From the back depended a
bunch of grapes and leaves. all White.
These are hardly true to nature, but the
pretty girls light or dark hair.
Another hat of the toque sort Is a three
cornered pale pink fluffy felt, with trans
parent medallions of brown silk guipure
and two pink ostrich plumes. This Is most
bewitching. Another hat in pink Is larger
and of the inevitable fluffy felt, with deeper
pink velvet roses and pale pink satin rib

Beautiful Models.
A visiting gown, which Is the acme of ele-
gance, has foundation of black liberty
satin on which is braided in black and
white silk an intricate design of fine braid
ing and embroidery. The gown IS cut in
princess style, and the embroidery is con-
tinuous from collar to hem, ending in some
unique heavy ornaments IN the form of con-
ventional feurs de lis at intervals about the
bottom. A deep, narrow vest of white en-
broidered null Is introduced in the front and
in the back Of the bodice; scrap of black
and white striped silk Is added, and forms
narrow cuffs on the sleeves. Undersleeves
of black chiffon over white are worn.
A gown for evening receptions Is made

stripes, continuous from top to bottom, are
outlined with black chenille and small black
spangles that are also used to pick out, all
over the gown, a dainty design of tiny con-

through series of jet rings around the

RULES FOR ALL VISITORS.
Guests at Fall House Parties Have
Certain Obligations.

From Weman's Life.
Do not stay too long. It is much to break
into the life of any family, even for a few
days. Pay no attention to urgings to stay
longer, however sincere they seem. Set
time to go when you arrive, and stick to It.
Conform absolutely to the household ar
rangements, especially as to times of rising,
going to meals, and retiring. Be ready in
ample time for all drives or other excur-
SionS
Carry with you all needed toilet supplies,
that you may not be obliged to mortify
your host by pointing out possible def
ciencies in the guest room. such as a clothes
brush-the article most commonly lacking.
Enter heartily into all their plans for
entertaining YOU but make 1t plain that
you do not care to be entertained all the
time or to have every minute filled with
amusement.
Be ready to suggest little plans for pleas
ure when you see your host at a loss to en-
terrain YOU Try how well You can enter
tain him for a change Turn about Is fair
play in visiting, well as in everything
else.
If you ever were brisk and sprightly. be
SO now.
Your high spirits and evident enjoyment
are the only thanks your host wants.
Take some work with you, so that when
your host has to work you may keep him
in countenance by working also. More good
times are to be had over work than over
play. anyway.
Do not argue, or discuss, debatable mat
tiers. Few things leave worse taste In
the mouth.
Offer to pay the little incidental expenses
that will be caused now and then by your
visit; but merely offer-do not insist upon
it, which would be very rude

frills and ruffies. so dear to the feminine
heart.
Few women realize how extremely sensi-
tive men are-t to the effect of a woman's ap-
pearance. A society man at a recent ball
remarked:
"It makes me nervous to talk to that wo-
man. She has those slimy-looking scales
sewed on her gown half an inch thick, and
they are most unpleasant and queer"
Another man thought that a girl In
long. tight, green ball gown looked the
symbol of a string bean.
Sense of Proportion.
Men have a more accurate sense of pro-
portion than women, and are quick to see
an inharmonious note or any offense against
the general law of order and fitness. AZ
man wants to see at least pretense of
practical use for everything about wo-
mans toilet and, as rule, over-trimming
and fussiness jar upon his nerves.
AS in everything else, the planning of
costume is the important thing, and then
intelligent labor can take care of the re-
suit. Men are especially quick to see har-
mony in color. Harry Chase, the marine
painter, found the symphony of color in his
wifes brown hair and yellow eyes, and al
ways wished her dress and hat TO match
them. In fact, many artists have put some
of their most artistic ideas into costumes
for women.
What a woman wears when she enters
crowded reception room is of prime i'm
portance especially II she has good car
riage and can show off her gowns to the
best advantage A number of gowns at
recent fashionable reception showed lines
so graceful and coloring SO harmonious as
to be worthy of especial note They were
lust the sort that men especially admire.
