DR.. Chickering memorial society
will go down to posterity as be-
ing the first organization to do
honor to the races friend-Dr. Jos,

to be congratulated, for it's timely
action in inaugurating these mem.

we have before stated, that every
colored church in this city will do
honor to the memory of their dead
friend and christian fellow citizen
apd may his memory be lasting
monument of all that was good,
great and honorable. Rev. Robert

GEN'L ROBERT SMALLS.

We congratulate Hon. Robert
Smalls on his recent speech de-
livered in the House OF Represen :
tatives in his own defense. II
was mastery effort. General
Smalls is republican and strong
friend TO his race, and his fraudu-
lent defeat for Congress was the
work of the democratic party in
the south. The charge that Gen
eral Smalls didn't vote for Har.
rison and Morton is denied by the
best citizens in South Carolina.
We have always been an admirer
of General Smalls and have always
found him to be a man of honesty
and integrity.

The committee on the Old Folks

its report to the conference and

President Robinson said that the

next Monday is inauguration let
the report 90 until the followin g
week.
The recommendations about
the use Of the BEE as denOmina-
tional journal, with sufficient
number OF subscribers is a grand
thing which shall not be opposed,
because the men at its head are
able men and with much prudence
both for men and measures The
report says that the BEE can be
of great use until otherwise ar

A SUCCESSFUL MAN.

Mr.. w. A. Stewart, one of the
most successful realestate men in
the city, has just completed and
sold the largest residence built by
any eolored man in the United
States. 1t was sold for $4,000.
He also completed two houses on
Maryland avenue and A street,
and sold them for $4,000 cash.
He is now erecting nine fine
houses on Capital Hill which will
be completed shortly. There is
one thing Mr.. Stewart should be
complimented for and that is he
is employing all colored mechan-
les. Thus speaks we'll for yonng
man who is just % years old.
These new houses will cost SO,
900.
Mr.. Stewart has demonstrated
the fact that colored men can sue
ceed if a chance is given
them and this ought to
sufficiently impress boss builders
who don't employ colored nechan.
les that the negro only asks for a
chance to demonstrate what he can
do when they are properly aided
by those of his own race. 1t is
claimed that Mr.. Stewart cleared
$4,000 last year in his business.
He is the largest and most progres.
sive builder of his age and color
in this country. His work shows
this. He is young man who de.
serves to be encouraged. 1t is also
understood that he Will soon start
a hall for the Junior Excelsiors of
which he is president. A peep in
Mr.. Stewards Office will demonstrate
the fact that he conducts his busi-
ness upon business basis. 1t is
nicely fitted up on the most i'm
proved order and the manner in
which he dispatches business will
convince all that he is reliable

DIR. @. b. PURVIS.

We desire to say to those who
have found fault with Dr.. 9. B.
Purvis and those who have at
tempted to criticlse the editor of tn
BEE for speaking a few words In
behalf of the doctor aud the Freed
mems hospital, that he has never
any time asked the editor of
this paper to say one word in his
favor or the institution of which
he is the surgeon in charge. The
complaint against the institution
comes from those who are friend.
ly to the editor and the paper he
edits. DR.. Purvis has never init
mated directly or indirectly to the
editor of this paper anything. The
record of the Freedmans' hospi-
tai under DR.. Purvis will speak
for itself. We do say, however,
that DR.. Purvis, although he may
have had cause to complain a.
gainst those who have endeayored
to force the editor Of this paper to
attack bim, never by action o
words urged this paper to speak
unkindly of any one. Can
any of his enemies say as much?
President Harrison will not be
a party to the removal of a COM
petent man from that institution
without cause and we are of the
opinion that these applicants will
be convinced when President Har-
rison comes In.

zen. There has been an effort to
depreciate the services of General
Smalls which will not do. Gen.
Smalls is strong man in his
state and true republican. The
southern colored people have been
imposed upon by a class of cor
rupt northerners which is testified
to by the most intelligent colored
people in the south.

HONORING A GREAT MAN.

1n another column of this paper
will be seen a report f;;he memo.
rial exercises, ia honor of Rev.
Joseph Chickering, DID,, held in
the 4th Baptist Church of this
city, Sunday afternoon Feb, II,
The eulogist on this occasion was
Rev. Robert johnson, who deliv-
cred a most eloquent address on
the life and character of this great
philapthropist.
DR.. Chickering was a man well
known throughout this country
as the negroes friend, who aided
our race in every respect to reach
the highest degree of civilization
and respectability. The memor y
of this man should be celebrated
by every colored church deno-
mination in this city, he is entitl-
ed to it for what was done by him
in life for the elevation of our peo.
pie. The prime mover in these
exercises was Mr.. w. I'll. Lucas,
a young man who has the intere st
of his race at heart and one who
never forgets kindness done in
the interest of his people. Rev.
Chickering was to the colored peo
pie that the late Charles Sumner
was and when our people find a
man who is friendly disposed to-
ward them they should not forget
that their duty is to demonstra e
the fact that they know how to ap.
preciate kindness. There were ma
ny distinguished speakers and 9TH
er persons p esent, among the
most priminent was DIR. E. NJ.
Gallandet, president of the Deaf
and Dumb Institution. We all
know DIR Galandet as a man who
knows no person by his color. As
long as he has been president of
the Deaf and Dumb Institution,
he has never been known to dis
criminate on account of color, but
has treated all alike, rich or poor,
high or low. We speak from
personal knowledge of DIR. Gallan.
Diet, we know how be treated those
who are near and dear to US; we
know that In him the negro race
throughout this great country
have a true friend and it is with
pleasure that we can say that a
nobler man, a truer christian
and finer scholar dos'ent exist
than the president of the Deaf and
Dumb Institution. We shall ever
honor him and those kind
hearted and christian ladies and
gentlemen, he has under him to

dress, the BEE, as well As every
other negro paper, hAttered
him and presumed that he would
do the square thing towards the
negro, and when he nominated

the BEE supported MATHEWS,
not because he was democrat
but because he was negro. And
it is the negro first with US even
if he ia a democrat although we
are opposed to negro democrats
There has been a great deal said
against Public Printer Benedict,
but the BEE has found him sound
on the negro question aud so far
as other people regard him, we
have nothing to do, have al
ways said that Mr.. Benedict,
although a democrat. has given
the negro recognition in his de.
partment. The trouble with all
negroes like Douglass, where
they can't use you, you are bad
fellow.
the association of Fred DOUG
lass, Jr., with the Robinson bro b.
ers, the two political acrobats, is
no surprise to US. We want the
associate editor of the weakly
patentback, alias the Leader to
answer these questions:
1st. Who was responsible for
the attack on Hon. Robt. Purvis,
of Philadelphia?
I'd. Who was responsible for
the attack on the history of the
negro race and the personal at
tack on Col. Geo. w. Williams?
Also, who was responsible tor
the attack on Richard T. Greener?
Who prepared the M sttet and Sc
cured the data and many other
things that we have not mentions
ed? Either Fred. Douglass junior
Or senior or both can answer this.
When these questions are answer
ed perhaps the public can best
Judge who are the hypocrits and
who are CONSTANT
We have more to say which the
Douglasses will iud very interest
ing reading. the attack that
Fred. Douglass, Jr and his two
recent negro democratic converts
make will not effect honest repub-
licans. And when Trottel
kicked him out of his Office be
knew that he was getting rid of a

A GIRL RAILROADED TO JAIL.
Her Case Taken up by q Lawyer Who
Says She Was Never Tried.

An extraordinary case has Just come to light
at Highland Falls, n Y. Nancy Garrison, aged
twenty-five years. has been sentenced to the
Hudson reformatory for women for five years.
it is alleged, without trial. Justice William
Avery, who was the committing magistrate,
says that he is backed in his action by the best
portion of the community.
Justice Avery was seen yesterday by q re-
porter. He said that the girl was arrested ON
complaint Of three persons named Springs.ead,
who charged her with being a disorderly per-
son because she walked the streets at late hours
at night, and by Mrs. William Schoudel, who
charged that the girl was annoying her son
Albert, who is about the same age as the Young
woman, by sending him notes and making de-
mands upon him because Of her claim that
Albert is the father of her ten-months-old
babe. When she was brought before the ius-
tice he says she was told what were her rights.
and on her pleading guilty to part of the
charges he passed the sentence as much upon
his knowledge Of the girls conduct and the de-
sire Of the community to getrid Of her as upon
her own admissions.
Nicholas Baker, lawyer of Glove Hollow,
has afidavits from Thomas Dalton, Barney
Hibler and George Harris, three of many per-
sons in the court room when the girl was SEN
fenced, who swear that the charges were not
read to her; that there were no witnesses sworn
and no trial had. When asked to plead they
say the girl was willing to admit anything that
was true, but said that the charges that were
spoken of were not true. The case will 60 to
the county court on appeal
