RECORDER BRUCE IN THE
SOUTH.

Gu the 29th of May Ex.Sen-
ator B. K. Bruce, delivered the
commencement address at Tus-
kegee, College, Ala to an audi
ence of over ten thousand people;
the largest that ever assembled
at all educational institution in
the South. The speaker was in
troduced by president B T,Wash
lngton, and for two hours held
this vast concourse of people spell
bound as it were.
Many who had heard him on
other occasions pronounced this
the most magnificent of his many
great efforts. He began by
sketching the history of the col =.
Ored race from the landing of a
few hundred slaves at Jamestown,
Va, two centuries ago, down to
the present day. lie painted in
glowing colors the hardships that
this race had undergone and the
services it had rendered to the
country both as slaves and as
freemen.
Speaking of the late war he
said: That the Union armies could
never have suppressed the REBEL
ion but for the aid of the two
hundred thousand brave black
soldiers who hared their breasts to
the lcey fangs of death, that free
institutions should not fade from
the earth.
He expressed a deep regret that
the nation which had been saved
by the prswess of the black man
should so soon forget its obliga-
ton to him and practically leave
him to make the test he could of a
hard lot. But, he said, there was
no reason for dependency; that
there was light and hope ahead
aud all that was necessary to ac-
compllsh success, was unity of ac-
ton IN the right direction. Speak
ing of the deportation scheme he
be said: The black man had earn.

WORK TO COMMENCE.
Real Estate Exchange Appoint Committees TO
Attend to important ork-Agenrs to
be sent East to Spread Facts
About Kansas

The directory of the Real Estate ex-
change held a long business session yester-
day and attended to considerable i'm
portant business. The leading question
that was seriously considered was the
matter of advertising the state and secur-
ing immigration in this way. 1t was de-
cided that no salary would be paid the
agents and at the same time assurances
given that few months could be spent by
certain members Of the exchange who
would do the work without salary and
keep an expense account which should not
go over S1G0 per month. 1t is hoped the
transport alton and possibly some other
branches of the heaviest expense could be
reduced owing to the fact that the object
is purely to work for the best interests of
the state The exchange has already
large amount OF advertising matter on
hand and the committee on advertisement
is working most earnestly preparing some
more for the use of the agents in eastern
states.
1t is proposed TO send at least one or two
agents to Illinois, Iowa, Indiana, Ohio and
Michigan and some other states will be
visited Also The exchange hopes to get
agents and at an early date, believing work
done within two or three weeks may result
in bringing many to the state who viii go
into business this spring.
The directory appropriated 500 for the
purpose of paying expenses of the agents
and it was arranged for calling on the diff
ferent kinds of business for money to aid
in the scheme. Committees for this pur-
pose were appointed as follows:
Banks, loan companies and capitalists

figure up everything in the department he
is hustling in; that it Is much more work
than he had anticipated, but so far no re-

Suggestions from a high collar department
clerk. Some of the agents in the state who
have been at work are having good deal
of trouble in getting the hang OF it"
Some of the letters informing chem of the
