little monkey seized Toto and flew aft
er them, although the dog tried hard
to bite him.
The Scarecrow and the Tin Wood
man were rather frightened at first
for they remembered how badly the
Winged Monkeys had treated them be-
fore; but they saw that no harm was
intended so they rode through the air
quite cheerfully, and had fine time
looking at the pretty gardens and
woods far below them.
Dorothy found herself riding easily
between two of the biggest monkeys,
one of them the King himself They
had made a chair of their hands and
were careful not to hurt her.
"Why do you have to obey the
charm of the golden cap?" she asked,
That is long story" answered
the King, with laugh; but as we
have a long journey before us l will
pass the time by telling you about it,

piled.

great forest, flying from tree to tree,
eating nuts and fruit. and doing just
as we pleased without calling anybody
master. Perhaps some of us were
rather too full of mischief at times,
flying down to pull the tails of the
animals that had no wings. chasing
birds, and throwing nuts at the people
who walked in the forest. But we
were careless and happy and full of
fun, and enjoyed every minute of the
day. This was many years ago. long
before Or came out of the clouds to
rule over this land.
There lived here then. away at the
north, a beautiful princess, who was
also a powerful sorceress. All her
magic was used to help the people,
and she was never known to hurt any
one who vas good. Her name was
Gayelette, and she lived in hand
some palace built from great blocks of
ruby. Every one loved her. but her
greatest sorrow was that she could
find no one to love in return, since all
the men were much too stupid and
ugly to mate with one so beautiful and
wise. At last, however. she found a
boy who was handsome and manly
and wise beyond his years. Gayelette
made up her mind that when he grew
to be man she would make him her
husband. 80 she took him to her ruby
palace and used all her magic powers
to make him as strong and good and
lovely as any woman could wish.
When he grew to manhood. Quelala,
as he was called. was said to be the
best and wisest man in all the land,
while his manly beauty was so great
that Gayelette loved him dearly, and
fastened to make everything ready for
the wedding.

We did visit her," said the Scare

And she let you go again?' asked
the man, in wonder.
She could not help it, for she is

Bishop opposes Woman Suffrage

Bishop James A. McFaul of the

very highly of woman suffrage. In
discussing this interesting topic re-

day, Just before the wedding, my
grandfather was flying out with his
band when he saw Quelala' Walking
beside the river. He was dressed in
a rich costume of pink sill and purple
velvet, and my randfather thought
he would see what he could do. At his
word the band flew down and seized
Quelala, carried him in their arms un-
til they were the middle of the river,
and then dropped him into the water
"tSwim out. my fine fellow cried
my grandfather, and see If the water
has spotted your clothes. Quelala was
much too wise not to swim, and he
was not in the least spoiled by all his
good fortune. He laughed, when he
came to the top of the water, and
swan in to shore. But when Gayelette
came running out to him she found
his silks and velvet all ruined by the
river
"The princess was very angry, and
she knew, of course, who did 1t. She
had all the Winged Monkeys brought
before her. and she said at first that
their wings should be tied and they
should be treated as they had treated
Quelala. and dropped in the river. But
my grandfather pleaded hard, for he
knew the monkeys would drown in the
river with their wings tied. and
Quelala said kind word for them
also; so that Gayelette finally spared
them, on condition that the Winged
Monkeys should ever after do three
times the bidding of the owner of the
golden cap. The cap had been made
for a wedding present to Quelala, and
it is said to have cost the princess
half her kingdom. OF course my grand
father and all the other monkeys at
once agreed to the condition, and that
is how it happens that We are three
times the slaves of the owner of the
golden cap. whomsoever he may be-"
And what became OF them?" asked
Dorothy. who had been greatly inter
ested in the story.
"Quelala being the first owner of
the golden cap" replied the monkey
''he was the first to lay his wishes
upon us. AS his bride could not bear
the sight of us, he called us all to him
in the forest after he had married her

she could never again set eyes on a
Winged Monkey, which we were glad
to do, for we were all afraid of her
This was all we ever had to do un-
til the golden cap fell into the hands
of the Wicked Witch of the West, who
made us enslave the Winkies, and aft
erward drive Or himself out of the
Land of the West. Now the golden
cap is yours, and three times you have
the right to lay your wishes upon us"
AS the Monkey King finished his
story Dorothy looked down and saw
the green, shining walls of the EN-
erald City before them. She wondered
at the rapid flight of the monkeys, but
was glad the journey was over. The
strange creatures set the travellers
down carefully before the gate of the
city, the King bowed low to Dorothy,
and then flew swiftly away, followed
by all his band.
THAT was a good ride" said the lit
TIC girl.
Yes, and a quick way out of our
troubles" replied the Lion. How
lucky it was you brought away that
wonderful cap!"

PLANNING FOR
AN ARSAIP LINE
COMPANY INCORPORATED IN
DENVER PURPOSES TO CON.
srRUcr AERoPLANEs.
WORK ALREADY BEGUN
THREE MACHINES IN PROCESS OF
CONSTRUCTION AT PLACES
KEPT SECRET.

Denver.-The Republican Sunday
morning says: Denver may expect to
see its first homemade aeroplane fly
ing in this vicinity within the next 80
days, If the plans of the Aero Craft
Construction Company are carried out
according to the expectations of its
incorporators. Three aeroplanes, en-
bodying the best features of the sue
cessful machines in the aviation con-
tests, are in process of construction in
Denver at present, though their where
abouts is being kept a secret, and
one Of the machines is far enough
along to warrant it's builders in stat
ing that they will be able to make a
flight within two or three months.
P. ]. Fischer is president of the
company, F. Marquardsen secretary
treasurer and E. A. Smith general
counsel. These three men have
formed an incorporation capitalized at
100000, and the incorporation papers
were left in the Secretary of States
office yesterday afternoon. 1t is un-
derstood that they are negotiating for
which they desire to lease for expert
menting with their machines when
they get them completed. 1t is the ulti-
mate intention of the concern to es-
tablish line of aeropianes which will
carry mail. messages and rush express
matter between the larger cities in
the West.
I'VE do not expect ever to compete
with the railroads in carrying freight
or passengers" said Mr.. Smith last
night, but we have an idea that our
machines will be able to get business
when it comes to delivering mail mat
ter, messages or light express pack
ages. The modern aeroplane can
make forty miles an hour right along,
and its utility is limited only by the
amount of fuel it can carry. No rail-
road makes 40 miles an hour out in
this country, including stops for pas
sengers, coal, water and other things,
so we think that for fast work our
aeroplanes wilS be able to do a COM
mercial business.
"Our company is not stock-job-
bing scheme by any means. There is
nc stock for sale. We have three
machines under construction now, and
hope to have one of them, at least,
in shape for light within ninety
days"
The aeroplane factory operated by
the new incorporation is one of four
| now actively engaged in the manufac-
ture of aeroplanes in the United
States, the other three being located
| in New York, st. Louis and Dayton,

The educational department of the

The work being done is perhaps not

THE DENVER STOCK SHOW.
Unusual Interest Being Manifested II
This Annual Event.

This Annual Event.
Stock Show week in Denver, Janu-
ary S-15, promises to be an important
event in Western live stock circles
That the live stock industry in the
West is on the verge of a big boom is
generally believed, but there is still
much confusion in the minds of the
stockmen as to the actual situation
The Denver stock show and conven-
tion provide an excellent opportunity
to get together and size up the situa.
ton. There will be prominent stock
men in attendance from all parts Of
the country, and, in addition to the
chance to compare notes on the situa-
ton, the show will provide an oppor-
tunity to test market conditions.
There will be the usual big sales Of
feeder cattle In car loads by auction,
and it is expected that the largest
feeders in the West will be here to
bid on the choice cattle. There will
also be sales of the pure bred breed
ing cattle, under the direction of the
record associations of the principal
breeds.
The railroads have made low rate
from points in Colorado. good all the
week. and it is expected that the at
tendance will be the largest ever had
at any similaf event in Denver. A
big feature of the show this year will
be the National Western Horse Show.
This show will be held in the big pa.
vilion every evening during the week,
and matinees on Wednesday and Sat
urday. The largest and best stables
in the country will be represented,
and it is promised that the horse ex.
hibition will be the largest ever seen
in the West, and will compare favor
ably with the shows in New York and
Chicago. All classes and types Of
horses will be represented. from the
diminutive' pony to the massive draft
horse.
The conventions Of the American
National Live Stock Association and
the Colorado Cattle and Horse Grow.
ers' Association promise to be of more
than usual interest. The American
Beef Producers Congress will be held
in connection with the national meet.
ing, and the Colorado State Associa.
ton has on foot plan to broaden the
scope of that organization so as to
take in all classes of stockmen, and
make the association larger and
stronger than ever before.
Interest in the coming meeting and
show is stronger than ever before. and
1t is expected that some live stock
history will be made during the week.
