shoes, dresses, capes, etc., etc go in
on top of the casket then boards
were placed thereon and the filling Of
the grave continued. This young lady
was graduate and was employed as
house maid in Phoenix and had got
ten for herself quite complete ward
robe. 1t seemed to me too bad to
utilize her effects thus when SO many
girls, less fortunate than she, >could
have made practical use of them.
There was a picture connected with
this interment that will ever remain
with me- Mary, the deceased, had one
living relative, an old, old grandmoth-
er. She was so old her skin looked
like parched leather; she was tooth
less and her hair, on top, white as the
driven snow and gradually getting
dal ker as it fell around her shoulders;
she was weird sight out of cerne-
terry, but she certainly seemed a
part of the ceremony that day, in her
faded calico dress, tear stained eyes
and her deplorabIe condition generally
During the services she sat out in
tie wagon that had brought the re-
mains and cried and chanted their
death song. She was unble to be
brought into the Sunday house Ow-
ing to her rheumatic condition. This
feature made the ceremony more
weird than usual. When the casket
was brought out, she was helped on
top of it, and sat there until the
burying ground was reached and they
were ready to put it into the last
resting place. Even with such an
exterior that poor, old woman, had a
mother heart and felt as deeply, and
maybe more SO, as the relative in the
latest mourning gown. / had occas-
icn to- see that old woman during the
next week and she talked to me by
means of one of the older pupils and
told me she was better, but lit hurts
awfully here" placing her withered
old hand over her heart. 1t is not
etiquette for a white person to call
upon the relatives of the deceased be-
fore three days, so it is seen, the In
dian has his social laws as well as
his lighter skinned brothers.
AS I said on beginning. ] was SO
surprised at the progress and devel-
opment Of the American Indian that

you will agree with me that cur gov
eminent is doing everything toward
making our red ward citizen in ev-
cry sense of the word. And there is
something on which to work, which
everyone who is directly connected
with them soon realizes and that is
the earnestness, honor and veracity
which is paramount in every action

Wanted More Roses

A very shy young man had been calling on "the sweetest girl in the world" for many moons, but. being bashtul his suit progressed slowly. Finally she decided it was time to start something, so the next time he called she point ed to the rose in the buttonhole of his coat and said:
 "I'll give you a kiss for that rose"
 A crimson flush spread over his countenance, but the exchange was made after some hesitation on his part. Then he grabbed his hat and started to leave the room.
 1Why, where are you going?" she asked in surprise.
 "To the--er--horist for more roses," he called back from the front door.

The HOme.-

Old jelly gets insipid. It can be made like new by heating. Add lit tie water and sugar.
 Cutting onions, turnips and carrots across the fiber makes them more tender when cooked.
 A faint scent of violets is imparted to handkerchiefs by adding. small piece of orris root to the water in which they are boiled.
 Finger marks on doors can easily be rubbed off with piece of clean flannel dipped in paraffin. After ward wipe over with clean cloth wrung out of hot water to take away the smell
 Obstinate grease spots can be re- moved by placing them in benzine, placing them on double pad of blot. ting paper and, after laying another pad of the same over the top, press ing with moderately hot iron.
 To soften hard water, put one ounce of quicklime into four gallons and half of water. Stir it thorough ly and allow it to settle. Then pour off the clear solution, which will be enough to add to four barrels of hard water.

Fire at Needles.

Fire broke out in laundry at Needles early Monday morning and for d time it looked as though a great portion of that thriving town would be in ashes before daylight. Prompt acton on the part of the fire department aided by the citizens generally, confined the flames within a small area, and after the total destruction of the laundry, a real estate office adjoining, as well as the office of the Postal Telegraph Company, and the scorching of the Needles hotel and other adjoining build ings, the fire was gotten under control. The absence of wind proved favorable to the work of the fire fighters, as a breeze would have carried the fire be- yond the control of the limited apparatus. The property loss will amount to about $1O,OOO. A rumOr was started that two Chinamen belonging in the laun- dry were not accounted for and it was feared that they had per ished in the flames.

Roll Potatoes.

A new and easy way to make. Slice the usual way. Let remain in cold water one hour, then spread a couple of newspapers on the table with a cloth on top, then place rows of drained potatoes on this, cover with a cloth and newspaper, roll back and forth with rolling pin. You will be surprised to find how quickly they will be done. A great improvement on the old way of salting few at time in the hands. As soon as the first ones are rolled they can be moved aside and the cloth filled, and so on till you are ready to fry as usual.

Trees Growing Scarcer.

"The time is coming in this country when trees will be as scarce as diamonds unless imme diate steps are taken to preserve our forests"
 This was the dark picture painted in an address by Secre- tary of Agriculture Wilson at the 2Sth annual meeting of the American Forestry Association recently. The Secretary declared that our forest growth is getting scarcer and scarcer every day, and that we are using three times as much wood as we are growing.
 The Secretary cOnteEded for q reforestati0n o! the country at the rate of about one quarter of a million acres each year, and emphasized the importance of the states, the various associations and individuals in helping to solve the problem by planting trees in denuded places.
 Rev. Dr. Edward Everett Hale, chaplain of the Senate and vice president of the Forestry AssO- citation. offered this as solution of the problems: "Stop denuda- tion; plant trees and make the people who own the funds for the future invest them in forests"

Broom Corn is Cornered.

The kitchen broom may soon be in a class with the parlor or naments. The time seems to be approaching when that instru- ment of dirt extermination in the household will be an object of reverence, to be used as little as possible in order that its life time may be prolonged.
 There is corner" in broom corn, and already the mar ket has felt the effect. The wholesale price of brooms has advanced 50 to 75 cents a dozen, and the housewife who short time ago paid 35 cents for a first class kitchen broom must now pay 40 cents. Furthermore, the price is on the upward trend, and there is no telling what the price will be before the new crop of broom corn is ready for mar ket next October.
 Okl ahoma is the principal source of supply for the better grades of broom corn. but the Oklahoma producers have none of it. The entire crop has been bought up by Chicago dealers. Likewise the Illinois crop. So that the broom makers are now at the mercy of the men who have worked the "corner."
 The manufacturers say that broom corn which in ordinary times costs them $SO to $90 d ton, is now costing them $15O a ton. The cheapest broom corn that can be bought commands $12O a ton, and this same corn in ordinary times sells for $40 to $50 ton.
 The last corner" m broom corn was ten years ago, when the price per ton was showed up to $22O, and one of the manufac. turers looks for the price to go even higher than that figure be fore the new crop comes on the market.

WHAT THE NEW TRAINS
MEAN TO GRAND JUNCTION

in mind that the Denver K Rio
Grande is now operating four pas
senger trains daily each way between
Grand Junction and Denver via the
standard gauge lines.
The addition of their new trains
Nos. 10 and 16, called the Colorado
Express, supplies a service that has
long been needed on the western
slope. Train No. 16 leaves Grand
Junction daily at 2:30 pm. and ar
riyes in Denver at Sis the next
morning. This train should be very
popular with those visiting the capi-
tai city. as it will enable them to
transact days business in Denver

early in the afternoon to reach points
east of here at seasonable hour.

carry through Pullman sleepers. and
every pain is being taken by the man
agement to make them comfortable
and convenient.
The fact that No. 16 leaves Grand
junction every day at 2:30 p.m.
without wait for any connection
should be remembered.

rive In Grand Junction at 3 pm. This
gives the valley towns above here an
excellent opportunity to visit Grand
Junction in the afternoon and return
home the same evening on Denver &
Rio Grande No. 6, due to leave here
at 1855 pm.
BY using Denver & Rio Grande No
