Herbert Spencer is old He born in 1920
This is his latest perhaps latest utterance immortal
ty. He finds against it He writes: after studying
primitive beliefs, the finding that there is origin for
the idea OF after life the conclusion which the
savage draws from the notion suggested by Dreams of
wandering double, which comes back awaking and
which goes away for indefinite time at death, and
after contemplating the nscrutable relation between
brain and consciousness and finding that get
evidence of the existence of the last without the activity
Of the first, obliged to renquish the thought
that consciousness continues after physical organization
has become inactive. But it strange and repug
conclusion that with the cessation of consciousness
at DEATH there be any knowledge of what
listed With his last breath 1t becomes to each the
thing if he had never lived"
This is a sober and a sombre. verdict. And how dull
compared with brilliant lines of Addison quoted
by the Boston Globe
''It must be so-Plato, thou reasonest Welt
Else when this pleasing hope this fond desire,
This longing after Immortality?
Or whence this secret dread and inward horror
Back herself, and startles destruction?
IT'S the divinity that stirs within US;
IT'S heaven itself that points out hereafter,
And intmates eternity to
Eternity thou pleasing, dreadful thought"

TYPHOID IN COLORADO.
M. M. MURDOCH, Editor.

In order to protect the health resort graft Of the nu-
erous springs OF that state the Colorado Board of Health
has issued statement deporing the widely exaggerated
reports of typhoid fever which been sent out The
board says the reports false that the water OF
Manitou and Colorado Springs is unusually pure.
Colorado IS naturally socitous about her summer
business which is by charging tourists three
prices for everything But there large and growing
element in this part Of the world which believes that
however delightful Colorado may be summer re-
sort its claims as health resort are decidedly weak
foundations.
For good many years the people in the western
states who had the courage to face excessive charges
and the money visiting Colorado during the
summer months Many of these have gone for the pleas
ure and rest the trip and the change in scene Fishing
is good in Colorado the mountains attractive and the
nights cool and delightful Some of these people have
gone to Colorado for health Colorado has sent sick
people back to sent to Colorado
for restoration of health In the of pulmonary
trouble for which attitudes of New Mexico and
Arizona are now conceded superior Colorado has
been known to benefit some few, and to have
failed to have saved thousands.
But a surprising number of people who go into Colo
rado take mountain fever which is typhoid fever The
person in health goes Colorado to recreate is
never sure when he will get back for it is dangerous for
the typhoid patient during the progress of the maady
to move to a lower altitude
To great many people the health boards report may
be reasung But to the people who have gone through
the experience Of Colorado typhoid reports from that
state can be exaggerated They know that typhoid fever
is prevalent that delightful Colorado is

The Tribune is at loss, after considering the

between the 1897 claims made by the unscathed
regiments and the 764 claims made by the regiments
which really sustained losses The Tribune wonders
whether the pension claim agents find difficult to

oarsman Titus to Try Again.

G. s. Titus, the American champion
oarsman, who was defeated at Henley in
the race for the Diamond sculls, has lost
none of his confidence in his ability to
win the coveted prize, and says he Will
try again for IL next year.
II offer no excuse for having been de-
feated," said Titus, and l will add that
the best man won. The race was as fair
as it could possibly have been. The
English are the fairest racing people I
have ever met with. The judges are
most impartial and everything is abso
lutely on the square.
Were the sporting people over here
surprised at my beating Scholes the
Canadian oarsman who beat me on the
Harlem river a few months ago? 1 guess
they were, for he beat me badly then. 1t
really did appear that l could not win
from him, and 1 do not blame anyone for
thinking he would beat me.
Il will tell you something / did not
care to say then. as 1t would have de-
tracted from his glory. 1 was not in good
condition and had been i'll. l had many
things to worry about and suffered from
insomnia. 1t Is no wonder he ran away
from me. l expected him to. I had no
doubt of the result when we rOwed at
Henley. however.
81 learned many things while In Eng
land which will be of benefit to me when
i go back next year to compete for the
SOULS. 1 cannot say now just what my
plans are for the coming year. but you
can say positively that 1 shall have an
other and more successful try at Hen
ley.
