COLORED CAMP MEETING.

Last Sunday the camp meeting commenced at
the Stark county Fair Grounds with an average
attendance. As the hand bills stated, all the par.
ties mentioned thereon were present. The meet
ing is conducted by Rev. A.. A. Whitman, the
Poet Preacher, who oficiated in the same capaCi.
ty last year. A large number Of colOred people
from neighbcring points were present, many Of
whom brought their own provisions, while others
patronized the dining hall In charge of Jacob
BloxsOm of Canton. Several booths for the sale
OF lunch, lemonade, &C., dot the grounds, while
four tents near the pavilion furnish sleeping &C
COmmodations for the members Of the band.
There Is a striking difference In the personnel of
the two brothers Whitman. Mr.. R G. Whitman
of Louisville, KY, is a tall, earnest man, and well
versed In Scriptural lore, and delivered a very
excellent sermon to an attentive audience. On
the contrary his brother, A. A. Whitman, is a ner-
vous, excitable man, and In his rapid yet elo-
quent style is more apt to carry his Congreg alton
by storm than the calmer delivery Of the other.
The blind preacher, Rev. ]. 7. Wilson, also made
a good impression by his seasonable remarks,
The singing by the Virginia songsters is truly ex.
Cellent, and is one of the principal attractions Of
the meeting. The grounds are well lighted In the
evening, and the best Of order prevails. Next
Sunday will be "the day" of the season and 1t is
hoped large attendance will be present. Ad-
mission 1Oc. Ample space for teams and family
parties,
