The famous Moxie nerve food bever-
age slakes the thirst, prevents the after
effects of liquor and tobacco, removing
the .odor from the breath at once,
gives the weak and nervous double
power Of endurance and takes away the
tired feeling like magic without reaction
or harm. For sale everywhere.
1t is said that no two organizations
were so evenly matched as the Louisville
Base Ball Club and Fifth street Choir.
The B. b. G. is bad player but nothing
to compare with the choir, whose dis
cord has knocked fifteen hundred dol
lar organ clean out of whack. We think,
however, the choir could redeem itself
if two young lady members would look
more on the books and less at the young
men.
The dedicatory services of the St. James
Old Folks Home Sunday afternoon was
largely attended. The sermon was de-
livered by Rev. D. A. Gaddie and Prof.
w. 7. Pevton made an address. The
choirs of Zion Baptist and Green street
churches sang, and the occasion was
frightened with music by Prof. James
R. Cunningham's Brass Band. Every
thing bids fair for the success of the in
stitution. "
An anti-excursion society is being
formed here for the purpose of discour-
aging the Colored people from spending
all the money they make with the rail-
roads. One of the means to be used is
to wait upon the employers and request
them to refuse leave of absence, and if
they 60 anyway to fill their places with
other Colored men or women as the case
may be-; The prime movers in the or
ganization claim to be greatly encour-
aged and hope to break up the foolish
habit of giving to the railroads all the
money the poor deluded creatures make
in summer and then starve, steal and go
naked all winter, Well we'll see. We
doubt the success of the move for if
there is anything the Colored people
like best, it is riding on a railroad car
and his big high sounding title in his
S'ciety. .... ..
There are but few people in this city
who know that DR.. H. Fitzbutler, the
notorious ward politician is in the en-
ployment of the Louisville Times and is
one of, if not the most brilliant writer
of that notorious Negro hating paper.
We give two samples of the many bril-
liant editorials that appear frequently in
The Times. a#
"The burning question in local politics
is whether Hon. Wilson (white) or DR..
Fitzbutler (highlylC olored)i is the bigger
man. It is momentous ISSUE"
"Knocked out by the John w. Lewis
crowd that nominated Jack Barrett, for
Treasurer, and knocked out again last
night in the bloody old Tenth ward by
the Hon. Fitzbutler. 'Hummy' Wilson
casts longing eyes toward Washington,
where Frank Finley is on deck ready to
knock him out, when the pie is finally
sliced. 'Hummy's' lot doesn't appear
to be a happy one.
An Elegant Stag.
Last Thursday night grand "stag''
supper was given by the Chicago Hunt
ing and fishing Club at their club house
1855 State street. The menu was excel
lent and elegantly served. A few in
