WING THE WAR IN RHYME AND PICTURE

To pierce Great Britain's very heart;
But Britans far from being tanned.
Though il should take two million men
She swears she'll capture it again.
The towns defences gave like tin
Beneath the shells the Krupps were heaving
As WilheIms army marches in
King Albert's gallant band is leaving.
Toward Ostend their retreat is bent,
While British check the foe near Client.
SUNDAY
Again the German airmen poise
Above the city on the Seine.
On Notre Dame bomb destroys
A pinnacle, and four are slain.
note they drop in German text:
We've taken Antwerp; you are next
On Antwerp Germany imposes
A tax of twenty million pounds.
Along the Ancre the Kaiser closes
With JofTre and rapidly rebounds
In seven weeks of Mars's thrall
A sixth of Britans leaders fall.
MONDAY.
The siege of Przemysl's quickly lifted
Before the Austrian advance.
The fortunes Of the war have shifted
TO give the kaisers both chance
The light of pride Won Behr espies
In Wilhelm's phosphorescent eyes.
If Antwerp's good they'll not abuse her,
The foe replies ia BelGium's thrones

There is no nohler, consistent

as loyal to republican princi.

assumed air about DR.. Work
In the commercial language
he is "all wool and a full yard
wide, in other words he is just
the material of which loyal
Unite,l States Senators is
made. He has but one line
of duty and that is straight
forward honesty and integri-
ty, loyalty to what he believes
is ri ght,unswerving in his adj
vocacy of the best good to his
country and state, undaunt,
ed in the performance of what
he believes is noblest, faith
full to the highest principles
of the republican party and
its just tenets, conscientious
in all things without being
cranky in anything, a man of
the people and one who will
take and maintain an exhalted
standing in the councils of
congress and man to whom
the people, regardless of par
ty affiliations, will point with
pride over his achievements.
Dr.. Work will answer all the
conditions required cf an
earnest. Jealous and success.

DELIGHTFUL CLINE

When Daniel Webster, the great
est orator of his day, stood in our
national halls of congress, and with
the elOquence of a Cicero, raised
his powerful voice against the pur-
chase Of the northwest territory, with
its rocky cliffs, its shifting sands
and prairie dog towns, little did he
dream that the cliffs at Red Rock
would become the summer resting
place of those who should be called
upon to preside, over the destinies of
this great nation.
While the east and south are ex-
perienc;ng sunstroke and heat pros
trations, incident to a torrid zone,
Colorado is enjoying the blessings of
cool and delightful nights, where
weary man may rest in the arms of
Morpheus under a covering of blan-
kets, required for his comfort, and
the wealth from the effete east will
at no distant day dot our natural
landscapes with their summer homes,
LndL Will vie W.tn LHeiT pdldIldl
homes along the historic Hudson, or
the green mountains of the Appala
chan range Here in plain view of
natures handiwork, surrounded by
towering groves of lofty pines. or
resting in the shade of our everlast-
ing snow capped peaks, the tourist
can while away the heated months
in the lap of natures luxury, lulled
to peaceful slumbers by the noctur-
nal music from the beastly kings of
our forest and dells.
And We say to all those who are
suffering from an overcrowded city
or sun-baked valley to come to Col
orado, that delightful country whose
resonant notes from her mountain
zephyrs are laden with that invigorat
ing elixir so essential to health and
comfort of man. Where our noun
tain trails are merged into fine auto
mobile roads, that everywhere trav-
erse this "Switz zerland of America.
Yes, come to Colorado, all ye that
are heavy laden with the riches OF
Dives, and in Gilpin county, the gol-
den treasures imbedded in her rock
ribbed bowels, will still further en-
rich their exchequer.

GREETING THE WRONG MAN
Cases Of Mistaken Identity That Have
Been ChronicIed by
Collector.

oCTdpDOOh KEEPERS ana CnTOnlCier6
Of odd things who are on the alert to
increase the store of interest grip
pers are able to list no end of mis-
takes made by prominent men at vari-
GUS times and places. One of these
! collectors has gathered incidents that
might easily make 200 pages of an
ordinary book. He insists that all are
as true as-well. as true as anything
can be that you hear about.
According to this collector, says the
New York Sun, there's Brooklyn
clergyman who went over to Newark
to fill pulpit one Sunday and greeted
three men as the pastor of the church.
he was to preach in before he shook
hands with the right man. One or two
deacons and other members were wait
ing for him in the vestibule when he
arrived.
He thought he knew minister
when he saw one, SO he put out his
hand with Glad to meet you. doc
tor" only to find it wasn't the pastor.
Then he looked from one to the other
and stretched out hand to the sec
ond man, scoring another mistake
Finally, inside the church on the way
to the pulpit, he was sure the minis
terial-looking man who advanced
toward him was the pastor, and so he
greeted him that way. But it was
trustee.
An insurance solicitor, top notcher,
of one of the big companies, called on
prospective risk at his Riverside
drive residence one evening to nail
him for policy. He talked eloquently
and at length. When it came to sign
ing his man he found he had been
talking to a nephew of the same man.
The nephew was already insured, but
had listened because he was interest
ed in insurance.
The scrapbook man has q great
| number of clips to prove that SLOUGH
lily dressed Gen. U. s. Grant was re-
| peatedly mistaken for some third
| class subaltern. Dispatch bearers
who had never met the general often
galloped up to headquarters and we're
directed to group of officers of which
Grant was one. Often the papers
were handed the most nattily dressed
or the most pompous appearing officer
in preference to Grant.
A. droll-minded, little, inconsequen-
tiai-iocking man of London used to
| take great delight in inviting promf-
neit men to visit him and see the
mistakes they made in supposing
somebody else was he. Hearty greet
ing would be half finished before they
would discover the mistake. The little
man was a famous Egyptologist and
used to send out his invitations in an
cient hieroglyphics, which may ac-
count for the upsetness of the visitors
The cases are numerous in which
in visits Of ceremony at courts and
among naval commanders Of warships
OF different nations in harbor ridicu-
lous mistakes In identity have been
made. A French admiral is reported
to have put forth his most formal
greeting to marine officer on board
the ship he was visiting, supposing he
was the commander in a newly de-
signed uniform. At a detached sur
render of troops in the Russian-Japan-
ese war Russian commander very
formally offered his sword to a war
correspondent.
