De in unison in the prettily decorated

patriotism of the audience to a high
pitch.
The audience was a large one, seats
being arranged in the field facing the
grandstand. Many carriages fanked
the field, and altogether with the stand
massed with school children, each
school wearing their own colors in
rosettes, the carnival was a huge sue
cess.

Negro Progress.

The Daily Clarion Ledger of Mis-
sissippi which is known as an anti.
negro sheet, gives the following ac-
count of the progress of the race in
that state:
"One of the most conspicuous fea-
lures of the negro problem in Missis-
sippi just now is the tendency of the
members of the race to patronize
business enterprises conducted by
members of their own color. This
tendency is enjoying a phenomenal
growth in all parts of the state, and
it's growth is being greatly accelerated
by the fact that the negroes were
never so progressive as now, and
more Of them are launching in bust
ness concerns than ever before. z.

The Peach State.

Georgia has held the lead in the pro-
duction OF peaches for the Eastern
market since 1902. and 1t is likely to be
for years to come the leading peach
state in the Union. The supremacy has
been wrested from Maryland. Twelve
years ago the order of the chief peach
producing states was: Maryland.
100000 trees: Delaware. +.520,00O;
New Jersey, 100000; Georgia. 1900
900. Since that time the peculiar ex-
cellence OF the soil and climate OF parts
of Georgia for peach growing has been
established, with the result that Geor-
gia has largely increased the number
OF its peach-bearing trees. while in the
other states there has been diminu-
tion in the number OF trees.
In the fall of 1901 the number Of
peach trees reported In these states,
and expected to be in good bearing in
1902, was: Georgia. 7.66O,0O0; Mary.
land, 4,O15.000; New Jersey. 2.700. 900;
Delaware. 100000. In the following
year, accordingly. Georgia had the
bumper crop. She had so far surpassed
all other states in number of trees that
she is likely to continue to be the
peach state par excellence for an in
definite time.-New York Sun.

Capitalists of Duluth, Minnesota
have formed company and will pros
pect for mica and other mineral prod
ucts in this state. The company has
been incorporated and will immedi-
ately begin operations. The name of
the concern is the Colorado Mica Min
ing and Milling Company, and its
principal office will be in Cripple
Creek. Colorado. The capitalization
is $250,0OO. The name of the company
would indicate its chief object is to
prospect for mica. This prospecting
will be done on land owned by the
company. and to be acquired by lease
and otherwise in Teller and Fremont
counties. The formation of the com
pany probably follows the discovery
of deposits of mica on the company's
lands.

TOO MANY BEARS

Man and Boy Killed at Yellowstone
Lake Hotei.-Campers and Private
Cenveyanees In Danger.
A Cody. Wyoming. dispatch says that
a man and boy employed in the Yel-
lowston National park were recently
killed by bears. The names cannot be
obtained, but the victims were in the
employ of the Lake hotel, on Yellow
stone lake The authorities endeayored
to keep the matter from the public. but
the news was brought out by campers.
The authorities say the man and boy
were teasing the bears and were TO
blame. but the campers tell different
story. as follows:
One day the door of the meat house
at the hotel was left open and the man
and boy were sent to. close 1t. When
they reached the small building they
heard commotion inside. Before they
could escape the were attacked by two
huge cinnamon bears. The boy was
killed instantly and the man so badly
injured he died.
The park officials are alleged to hare
done much to cover up the details OF
the affair and have left the impression
that death did not occur. They now
admit that the two men were Killed.
but say they were to blame.
The time is not far distant when 1t
will be impossible for the poorer class
of people to visit the Yellowstone park
owing to the cons family increasing
number of bears. Many parties en-
route home from visit to the park say
that the journey through the wonder
land was most dangerous
1t is alleged that the park transport
alton company and the hotel ptoprie-
tors are doing everything possible to
discourage campers and private con-
veyances from making the trip.
The bears have become so numerous
and bold that even the park guards are
frequently compelled to shoot the
beasts to save their own lives.
Recently freighter from Gardner in
passing through the park was attacked
by bears and he shot one OF them. A
mounted police Immediately placed
the freighter under arrest, despite
the fact that the bear climbed onto
the wagon. The major in command re-
leased the freighter.
A formal protest will be made to
President Roosevelt. who will be asked
to decrease the number Of bears in the
park, have them confined in an in
closure, or make arrangements for the
better protection of tourists.

Cites a Colorado Drum Corps.

The New York Times, in recent
editorial took up the study briefly of
civic pride. 1t does not believe the
merchants and business men of New
York city are doing all they should for
the municipality: 1t considers New
York self-satisfied and says so. In
summing up its discomfort with the
attitude of New York merchants in
general the Times pays the following
tribute to Denver:
1T is well enough. all these things.
But why stop at this? Why not drink
in some of the spirit of any Western
city-for example. Denver. That city
sent a famous drum corps to Boston
during the G. A. r. reunion. The hun
dred or so lads beat the drums and
sang the praises of Denver. They
wanted the G. A. X. reunion in Denver
next year and got it.
New York send out drum corps ?
Impossible! Terrible!' That is what
the average merchant of New York
would say. And why? If a drum corps
will bring visitors to New York, then
let New York get drum corps"

AS a guardian of children, no hu-
man being ever surpassed Beauty
an Irish setter dog. says Daniel Lee
of $50 South Fifteenth street, her
owner. Lee has trained his dog to
take care of the little pickininnies
which call him pap. He says that
the dog is better than nurse to
keep the children from harm and
would willingly sacrifice her life to
save that of his children. Lee has
one little girl who likes to play in the
street She occasionally tries to do
this, although her mother has strict
ly forbidden 1t.
Beauty knows that the children
should not go out of their own yard" ;"
said Lee yesterday, land whenever
my little girl tries to go through the
gate she has a rough and tumble
fight with Beauty. Beauty will run
in front of her and II she refuses to
stop grasps her dress and pulls her
back. She holds on in spite of any
efforts she makes to get away. Some
times the child in her innocence re-
sents the dogs actions and cuffs and
kicks her When she hurts her the
dog whines pitifully, but still holds on.
The other day the child in her rage
took hold of the dogs ear with her
teeth and bit it. The dog howled in
pain, but did not offer to do her in
jury"
Beauty is a very valuable dog and
has a faultless pedigree. Some time
since she gave birth to twelve little
beauties and is not out Of the yard
much now. as she has children of her
own to care for.-Denver Republican.
