went on. For week of that time, the two armies
did relax discipline and announced a willing

posal in of foreign The military spirit
evoked by an internal dispute found vent in prep
arations for the coming strife, and in every city

to perfect themselves for the struggle 1t was as
if the nation had gathered it's forces to be in a
state of perfect preparedness for eventualities
Under no other circumstances than those which
had passed could it have been in such a cond

United Empire of China and Japan. astute in

ing a nation which could not be conquered, and
might possibly be the winner in encounter In
any event, it would prove without conquest
or profitable returns. A most profound apology
was extended for the deporable episode in Hong
Kong, the Portland was released with great
honors, and resolutions agreed upon. The issue
of the Pacific would remain undecided until some
other suspicious occasion arose; but, for
the time being it was at rest.
This received without citation over
the country at large; but in the two armies that
had assembled outside Washington and had been
resting for many days their arms, it was
hailed with relief The who made up this
gathering were tired OF strain, and wanted to re-
turn to their homes.

Colrado Enterprise.

A striking example of Western enter
prise is found in a Denver Hotel, fam
Gus throughout the country, that is
spending s4s, in order to go itself
one better.
Every traveller between the Atlantic
and Pacific has heard of Denver's AL
bany Hotel. Going West it is known
as 1.-THE best hotel this side of New
York.. The East bound man finds
nothing like it ''outside of San Fran
CISCO. Denver residents show it off
as one of the sights of the town.
Now when any hotel gets on this
self-adver ising basis, people wonder
what it is that has attracted success.
Was it good luck?
The proprietors of The Albany, Sam
uel F Dutton and A. NJ. Eppstein don t
believe in luck as a business PROPOSE
ton. They believe in the triumph of
ideas.
Don't be satisfied with any business
right on improving. We are spending
s4s, 10000 right now to make the
Albany Hotel better than the best
Hotel in Denver"
And what do you consider the best?"
1.-The Albany" he answered. IF a
business man wants to get ahead, he
has got TO beat himself in business.
This answer gives the keynote of Mr..
buttons character. 1t is what brought
him to the front in the Western busi-
ness world.
Mr.. Eppstein, the other proprietor,
is of the same persuasion. Nothing
too good for Albany guests" is his
favorite expression, SO he willingly
joined Mr.. Dutton in his plan to beat
the ALBANY Hotel.
The two proprietors put their heads
together for the unusual purpose of
rivasiing their business, of making the
Albany Hotel look cheap in comparison
with the Albany Hotel.
.Oh my, but this is good one on the
Albany" exclaims Mr.. button.
Say replies Mr.. Eppstein But
I've got the best one on the Albany
yet.
has been run are amusement and COM
fort. The new ideas are more amuse-
ment and luxury.
When luxury came in to conquer
comfort it meant new equipment. The
proprietors began by re-decorating and
re-furnishing ll0 guest rooms. The
walls are beautifully tinted and hung
with exquisite pictures. The floors
were laid with Wilton velvet carpets.
Tables were furnished with electric
reading lamps, harmonizing in color
with the design of the rooms. Long
peer mirrors replaced former smaller
mirrors. New mahogany four posted
beds were used in many of the rooms,
while others were furnished with double
brass beds and brass twin beds. Cos
tuners, deep seated ration chairs and
dressing tables were among the other
additions to the cause of luxury. Then
came the finishing touches of new cur
tains and hangings.

When an incident like the following
occurs right here at home, it is bound
to carry weight with our readers. So
many strange occurrences go the
rounds of the press; are published as

one subject skepticism is rapidly dis
