DENVER UNIVERSITY's RELIEF


The almost positive assurance that the
| indebtedness OF Denver university will
soon be liquidated and the noble Meth
odist institution will be enabled to go
forward unhampered to even greater
usefulness should be cause for general
rejoicing not only in Denver, but in all
parts OF Colorado.
This institution has been Of vast good
to the cause OF higher education in the
West ever since il was first founded. Its
financial troubles have hampered it
through the fault q neither itself nor its
founders, but have been purely the re-
suit Of unavoidable, MOTTO. be-foreseen
conditions. 1t has had n hard struggle
for some years. To Its credit, however
it must be acknowledged that it has not
deteriorated nor relrograded in the
slightest degree.
To Bishop Warren belongs the lions
share Of the credit for the new life Of
the school. To Mr.. r. II. Beegs must
be gwen credit for large share OF the
renewed brightness. But to those who
shall assist In raising the $4,000 remaiu-
ing to re-establish the institution on a
firm basis will be due as much honor
to some, who will make proportionately
heavier sacrifices, possibly even more
honor. There Is no danger that Denver
and Colorado will not be duly grateful
to all who will assis. in the relief of one
OF it's best institutiops.-De Times.

A time-honored feud exists between
Col. Montgomery. the chief of the
white house telegraph force, and Ar
thur Simmons, one of the colored
doorkeepers. Col. Montgomery has
served ct the white house telegraph
wire continuously since 1877. Arthur
has opened doors for every president,
with the exception of Harrison, since
the days of Lincoln. The cramped
quarters in the temporary white house
are the cause of the numerous clashes
that are taking place between these
ancient foes.
The other day Col. Montgomery was
in hurry to get to the telegraph
room, which is on the top floor of the
new building. AS he hurried down
the narrow hall he jostled Arthur. A
heated argument followed. during
which Simmons asserted that he was
deserving more consideration, for be-
sides being an old man, he was a
member of one of the first families of

PELVIC CATARRH

FeelingsPe-ru-na Cures Catarrh Wherever Located.


One woman has dyspepsia, another
bronchitis, another Bright's disease,
another liver complaint, another con-
sumption, another female complaint.
These women would be very much sur
prised to hear that they are all suffer-
ing with chronic catarrh. But it is so,
nevertheless.
Each one of these troubles and great
many more are simply catarrh-thati is,
chronic inflammation of the mucous
lining of whichever organ is affected.
Any internal remedy that will cure ca
tarrh in one location will cure it in any
other. This is why Peruna has be-
come SO justly famous in the cure Of
female diseases. 1t cures catarrh
wherever located. Its cures remain.
Peruna does not palliate-it cures
Hon. Joseph b. Crowley, Congressman
from Illinois, writes from Robinson, Ill !,
the following praise for the great ca
tarrhal tonic Peruna. Congressman
Crowley says:
"Mrs. Crowley has taken q number

Disease Worse Than Battle.

The fact that the British losses by
deaths from disease during the Boer
war were 1880, compared with 1892
killed or fatally wounded in battle,
shows how much more fatal disease
is than shot and shell under the con-
ditions of climate in South Africa. Not
even the terrible havoc wrought by
the Beers in their ambuscades was so
fatal as the enervating climate and
