The management Of the st. Louis Col
ored Orphans Home, gave it's annual in
door entertainment on Friday evening,
the 18th inst, at Stalls Hall. It has
been generally agreed that the popular
ity of the infant institution is growing
rapidly with advancing wears, but no
one suspected that it had outgrown the
capacity of the hall in which it has been
accustomed to give it's entertainments
At $3.50 o'clock standing room was at a
premium. Many went away because of
their inability to get into the hall. The
management. composed wholly of ladies,
had spared no pains to advertise the oc-

charity upon the sympathy and CO.
operation of the community. An or

the base ball. The show wound up
with ball game between the st. Louis
Reds and the Home Comforts, in which
the latter won. jackson was given q
reception at night by the Colored people
at U. B. F. Hall in which about 200 per
sons participated. Henry Bridgewater,
the leader Of the Colored sporting fra
ternity Of St. Louis, who has enter
tanned Jackson since his arrival in the
city, was the leading spirit Of the affair,
and acted as master Of ceremonies.
Hon j. Milton Turner delivered the
address Of welcome in his usual elo-
quent ami impressive style, to which
Jackson responded in modest speech,
expressing his appreciation Of the cor
dial and hospitable welcome rendered
him by the people Of st. Louis. He war
followed by Jack Ashton. who occupied
the seat beside Jackson on the platform,
