THE ROUGH RIDER'S SCHOOL
ACTUAL LIFE OF THE COWBOY ON WESTERN CATTLE RANGES.
The Dangers of the Round-Up Greater Than Those of Battle—Excitements, Hardships and Fascinations of the Life—Food and Pay Good—Work of the Round-Up.
Fᴏʀᴛ Cᴏʟʟɪɴs, Col., June 21.—It is not to be wondered at that the rough riders made good fighters. They were trained and hardened to that kind of work. The majority of them were cowboys, fresh from the Western cattle ranges. Some of them were born to the life while others had become familiar with it by long usage. Cowboy life is more arduous than most people suppose. For instance, the dangers of the round-up are greater than those of the battlefield; that is, the statistics will show proportionately more casualties among cowboys than among soldiers engaged in active campaigning. This does not include casualties from shooting in the case of the cowboys. The cowboy seldom carries a gun on the round-up, and he would have little use for it if he did except to shoot prairie dogs and coyotes. In olden times an occasional shooting scrape was heard of, but of late years it is not considered good form for a cowboy to pack around a heavy six-shooter on his hip. It is only the cowboy that you see in the picture books that does this.

What all do we get about Annie Kelly (Love her sm) from any articles about the Strike or really anything?
[New York Tribune, Sunday, July 30, 1899]
This is the only mention I found after a cursory search of 1899 New York papers available on Chronicling America. There could be stuff in the Times archive, or on newspapers.com, but I don't have subscriptions to those.
An Annie with no surname given is also referred to in an article entitled "Great Meet of Newsboys" transcribed here. Whether Annie Kelly or not, this Annie was held in great esteem by the newsboys—"Annie’s arrival was really the event of the evening. Outside the hall and inside the boys cheered her"—and in return she proclaimed, "Well, boys, you know I'm with yer through thick and thin. Stick together and we'll win."

"DON'T BE AFRAID TO FACE FACTS."
We must learn by lessons of which we are not proud no less than of those of which we are proud. Don't be afraid to face facts as they are, whether they are or are not pleasant. I learned a few days ago that there is an Alaskan town which does not care to consider itself a part of the United States, but wants to be declared a part of Canada, because the United States would not take the trouble to provide for its proper government. Every good American should bow his head in shame that such a request should be made, because of the neglect of the United States Government. Let every man do all in his power, and with all his force, to see that every colony over which the flag waves, as well as at home, be so governed that the people of those colonies will believe it to be a great thing to have the chance to live under that flag.
The principles for which you fought are union and liberty, that this country should be mighty and free, and that each man should be judged by his worth as a man; that the treatment of the people should be according to their individual merits, not according to race, color or creed. Let us, then, realize that until we do treat man on his merits as a man we have not learned the lessons of the triumph you have won. Let us make the flag one of deeds, and not merely for men who are law-abiding and prosperous.
We have serious problems to solve at home as well as abroad. No nation can be great unless it be a righteous nation. We can't do great deeds as a nation unless we do all in our power to overcome petty matters. We must strive for civic and commercial honesty, and believe in business interests and hard work. In a word, we must do our full duty as private citizens in our material affairs and interests as well as in honor of the State.
[Excerpt from a speech given by Governor Theodore Roosevelt at Grant's Tomb on Memorial Day. New York Tribune, Wednesday, May 31, 1899]
MILK FOR POOR BABIES.
MANY THOUSANDS OF BOTTLES DISPENSED WITHIN A FEW YEARS.
MRS. FELIX ADLER ONE OF THE EARNEST ADVOCATES FOR THIS INSTITUTION—INTERESTING STATISTICS.
A charity which has received but little attention from the general public is the Modified Milk Laboratory of the poor.
Of all the charities that appeal to the philanthropic those termed preventive are most sure of a response.
The Modified Milk Laboratory was opened in 1891. It is the only institution of the kind in the city where cases are treated individually; where the sick child is examined, a weekly record of its condition is kept and food prescribed according to its need. It is a scientifically conducted laboratory, connected with a clinical department for children.
Dr. H. Koplik, a specialist in children's diseases, has given his services to the laboratory for seven years without remuneration. One who is interested in the charity and devotes much of her time and thought to it is Mrs. Felix Adler.
The committee feel convinced by the result of the statistics that its usefulness is absolute. The cost of production is high, owing to the excellence of materials needed (hygeia water being used exclusively) and a necessarily large expense for labor.
During the last year 7,300 bottle have been given gratuitously. The milk is sold at the same rate as the milk sold at shops, and no mother needing milk is ever turned away, but every case is investigated.
This increased tax upon its funds and the need of new apparatus now compel the committee to appeal for assistance to those kind friends who have so generously contributed in the past. It also hopes to enlist new friends, and will gladly welcome all visitors who may desire to inspect the laboratory at the Good Samaritan Dispensary, No. 75 Essex-st. The following number of bottles have been dispensed:
Bottles sold and given. Children supplied. 1891................ 44,111 1891................ 574 1892................ 57,371 1892................ 700 1893................ 70,068 1893................ 976 1894................ 70,705 1894................ 720 1895................ 75,550 1895................ 932 1896................ 96,313 1896................ 766 1897................ 155,989 1897................ 1,064 1898................ 298,674 1898................ 1,204
Total............. 868,781 Total................ 6,936
Contributions may be sent to the treasurer, Mrs. M. D. MacDaniel, No. 152 West Fifty-seventh-st., or to any member of the committee.

Hana makes me think of winter and cool colors so I'd say she's Ice Cold and Chill!!
Pauline makes me think of pretty pinks and pastels so she's Candy Store and Cotton Candy
Judith makes me think of darker colors, especially green so she's Pretty Marsh and Forest!!
10/10, thank you! ❤️
I think Skittery would say that Golden Skies most accurately depicted how Hana makes him feel.
May 24, 1883: The Brooklyn Bridge Opens
130 years ago today, the Brooklyn Bridge opened to the public. The Brooklyn Bridge was the first Ken Burns documentary to be broadcast on PBS. Explore Burns’s Brooklyn Bridge timeline, which shows the progression of the Manhattan-Brooklyn Bridge, which was the premier engineering feat of its time, and puts its construction in greater historical context.
