THE COLORED CONGRESS.
Like the Other 1t Is Making Slow
Progress.

1t was nearly 1890 today when the president,
]. c. Price, called the national colored con-
vention to order and announced that Rev. ]. S.
Coles Of Washington would open the exercises
with prayer.
Following the prayer the chair announced
that the time for which the church had been
engaged would expire today. and something
must be done at once to extend the time unless
the work could be rushed through today.
Presiding Elder johnson secured the floor
after little sparring, and said something
should be done to preserve the sanctity Of the
church, as profanity and disorderly conduct
had desecrated it.
The secretary, Mr.. Dawson, urged the neces-
sity OF an official reporter so that the reports
going out over the country should not be gar
bled by the reporters.
There was then some sharp target practice
over the regular order and the question of
securing the church.
Broad-ax Smith made the point of order that
a gentleman from the District of Columbia
kept his feet while another was talking.
With black cap on his head, his specacles
showed up on his forehead, Cushing's manual
in one hand and white handkerchief in the
other. Broad-ax Smith as he rises to speak is
one OF the most unique figures in the conven-
ton, and invariably brings down the house
with his drollery.
