Admiral Dewey's Birthday.

Washington. - Admiral George
Dewey was seventy years old Thurs
day. He is in splendid health and
robust in physique.
Among his callers were number Of
those who attended the admiral's birth
day dinner last week, which was ad-
vanced in date because President
Roosevelt expected to be in Pine Knot,
Va, today. These circumstances re-
called happy toast which che Presi-
dent prepared when they drank to the
health of the admiral. 1t follows:
ITO the man who has done more for
and reflected greater glory on America
than any other man now living"
The toast was met with hearty re-
Spouse from those surrounding the ad-
miral's table.
At the meeting of the Naval Relief
Association the admiral was presented
with two silver ink wells. The health
of the admiral was drunk from a de-
canter, containing Madeira wine of the
vintage of 1S47. The decanter was
formerly the property of George Wash
ington. and Surgeon General Van
Reypen, who made the presentation,
said it was eminently fitting that the
health "of the other George, whom we
all love-" should be drunk from the
same decanter.

Would Educate Negroes.

Lexington, Ky.-The most important
action of the Southern Educational AS
ISOLATION. which closed its eighteenth
annual session here Saturday, came
at the last moment before adjourn
ment, when the committee on resolu-
tons presents the following strong
resolutions ON negro education, which
were adopted unanimously:
1--WE endorse the accepted policy Of
the states Il the South in providing
facilities for the youth of the negro
race. believing that whatever the ulti-
mate solution of this grievous prob
lem may be. education must be an i'm
portant factor in that solution. We be-
lieve that the education of the negro
in the elementary branches of educa-
ton should be made thorough and
should include specific instruction in
hygiene and home sanitation for the
better protection OF both races. We
believe that In the secondary educa-
ton of negro youth emphasis should
be placed upon agriculture and the
industrial occupations, including nurse
training, domestic science and home
economics. We believe that for prac-
teal economical and physiological rea-
sons negro teachers should be pro-
vided for negro schools. We recon-
mend that in urban and rural negro
schools there should be closer and
more thorough supervision, not only
by city and county superintendent
but also by directors of music, draw
ing. manual training and other special
topics. On account of economic and
physiological difference in the two
races we believe that there should be
a difference in coui ses of study and
methods Of teaching, and that there
should be such an adjustment of school
curricula as shall lGeet the evident
needs of negro youth. We insist upon
such an equitable distribution of the
school funds that all the youth of the
negro race shall have at least an op-
portunity to receive elementary edu-
cation provided by the state and in
the administration of state laws and
in the execution OF this educational
policy we urge patience, tolerance and
Justice"

Lost Bullion Promoter. Sentenced.

Denver.-Leniency In the full sense
Of the term was used by Judge Lewis
when, after refusing to grant a new
trial, he imposed sentences upon the
defendants connected with the Lost
Bullion mine frauds Thursday in the
Federal Court. The convicted men
got off with Jail sentences ranging
from thirty to fifteen days and fines
ranging from 81! 900 to $50. George s.
Dubois, his son Lee Dubois, and c. l..
Blackman, who are credited with hav-
ing first conceived the scheme Of
palming an ordinary cave of as won
derful mine Of Golconda-like riches, re-
ceived the heaviest punishment-each
a $1,000 fine and thirty days in jail.
DR.. R. G. Hunt and Danton Pinkus,
whom the jury recommended to the
mercy of the court and who are gener-
ally thought to have been dupes rather
than factors in the conspiracy shown
by the government, received a $50 fine
each. The rest were disposed of as
follows: Arthur Levan, 800 and
costs; e. w. Sebben, 500 and costs;
William H. Wilson, fifteen days in the
county jail and $500 fine; w. B. Cam
eron, fifteen days in the county jail
and $500 fine; A. E. Keables, fifteen
days In Jail and $500 fine, and Arthur
Lawrence, fifteen days In Jail and $500
fine.
"Intercession Of friends unknown to
the defendants" Judge Lewis stated,
made him temper mercy with Justice
and reach the conclusion not to in
fict the punishment that the facts
warranted"

OLD PEOPLE MURDERED.
fearful Crime Committed On Ranch
Near Lamar.

VeAT'oi SV"e Somm'tteo IN VAnen
Near Lamar.
Denver.-A Republican special from
Lama. Colorado. Thursday. says:
One Of the most fiendish crimes in
the history of this part Of the state,
which must have occurred some time
Saturday night or early Sunday morn
ing. was revealed today by the autopsy
held by Coroner Kellogg over the
bodies Of A. H. Maxwell and wife, well
known people who resided on a claim
eight miles southeast Of here.
Both Of the aged pair had evidently
been strangled to death while they
slept and there was little indication of
. struggle. The post norton revealed
that the trachea in each of their
threats had been broken and the
bruises on Mrs. Maxwell's body and
broken bones in her chest were evil
IDENTIFY the result of the weight of the
assassin's knee while he choked her
to death.
Ed Maxwell, nineteen years Of age,
who was adopted by Mr.. and Mrs
Maxwell when he was seven years old,
was placed under arrest and Is being
held in jail here pending further in
vestigation.
Young Maxwell Is reticent, but says
he knows nothing of the affair and
that he will be able to prove an alibi
The last seen of the Maxwells alive
was Saturday. Yesterday being Christ
mas day, Mr.. and Mrs. Merritt, neigh
bors, sent their son to the Maxwell
ranch to take some Christmas pres
ents. On reaching the barn lot the
youth heard the cattle believing and
the horses neighing as though they
had not had food or drink for several
days.
On going to the house he saw no
signs of life about the place, and being
frightened hurried home and notified
his father, who returned with his son.
On entering the house and going to
the bed room of the aged couple, Mer-
rift was greeted with the horrifying
spectacle Of seeing them both dead in
bed. They were dressed in their night
clothes and at first 1t looked as though
the couple had met death peacefully
and 1t was supposed by Mr.. Merritt
that death had been due to natural
causes.
Word was sent to Coroner Kellogg
at this place, and he, with the sheriff
and other authorities, drove to the
Maxwell home, and an investigation at
once suggested that death was due to
foul play.
The bodies were brought to Lamar
and were placed in charge of a local
undertaken and this afternoon the
autopsy was held, revealing the cause
of death. The inquest was postponed
until next Saturday afternoon in order
to give the authorities more time to
investigate the murder.

Welded TO AN INDIAN.
"'ss Cora M. Arnold Of Denver Mar.
rles Albino chavarria Of New
Mexico,

ries Albino chavarria Of New
Mexico.
Denver.-The News gives the fol.
lowing account Of the marriage of q
white woman to a Pueblo Indian:
Miss Cora Marie Arnold, step
daughter of the late George Wilder and
well known in Denver. was married
last Monday in Santa Fee, New Mexico,
to Albino Chavarria, a full.blooded In
dian. The ceremony was performed
by the Rev. Mr.. Rendon. . Presbyte-
rian minister, and was witnessed by
the brides sisters, Misses Lillian and
Geneva Arnold. also of Denver.
The wedding was the end Of . ro-
nance which had its beginning Ave
years ago during the Mountain and
Plain festival in Denver. Chavarria.
chief of the Santa Clara Indians. q
tribe Of the Pueblos, was brought to
Denver with a large number of his
tribesmen for one of the exhibits.
Among those who visited the Indians
In their camp at City park was Miss
Arnold, who, upon seeing the broad
shouldered, pleasant-mannered chief
attired in native costume, Immediately
formed an attachment for him. She
made frequent visits to the camp, and
later the Indian was invited to call at
her home.
Miss Arnold lived with her step
father and sisters in the Colonnade
fats, at Colfax avenue and Marion
street, and the family was one OF the
most prominent on Capitol hill. Miss
Lillian Arnold was formerly teacher
in the Denver public schools, and an
other sister is the wife OF q United
States army officer.
The Indians first visit to his sweet
heart was the cause of disagreement
between her and the remaining mem
bers of her family. Objection was
made only to the Indians race. his
character being above reproach. Miss
Arnold, however, announced her In
tention to marry the chief despite
the objections of her family and
friends Several ministers were asked
to perform the ceremony, but all re-
fused.
An attempt was made to have the
ceremony performed in Santa Fe, but
IN IQdL Guy dlSO Tie Clel 6yhCh AS-
fused to ofi1ciate. Miss Arnold re-
turned to Denver alone, but the Indian
made frequent visits to the city. each
one of which was the cause OF a new
outburst of gossip.
Chavarria is fully civilized, religious,
fairly well educated and well to do.
He speaks the Indian and Spanish Ian
guages, but does not understand Eng
fish. and Miss Arnold set to work to
learn the Spanish.
In April, 1905, George Wilder was
drowned in the Gulf Of Mexico while
enroute from Galveston to Havana. He
left q will in which he disinherited the
present Mrs. Chavarria because OF her
refusal to give up her Indian lover.
The other sisters were left the entire
estate, which consists of some Of the
best real estate in Denver.
After five years of effort the sisters
of Miss Arnold finally consented to the
marriage, and one month ago they
went with her to New Mexico. Cha
varria owns a large farm near Taos.
New Mexico, which he cultivates him
self, and 1t is understood that the cou-
pie will make their homo there. Cha
varria is forty-five years old, and his
wife is a few years his junior.
