TO-DAY'S EVENTS.
CRISP NEWS CONCERNING THE
IMPORTANT OCCURRENCES
THIS DAY.
Negro Democrats.

INDIANAPOLIS, Aug. 1.-THE
convention of all the negro DEM
ocratic leagues which meets in
indianapolis from today to Au-
gust Is is composed of delegates
from State leagues in Indiana,
Ohio, New York, Iowa, Illinois,
Pennsylvania and several other
states with good membership and
the convention is calculated to be
the largest in the history of the
organization. The number of adj
herenrs of the league is claimed
to have largely increased during
the last few months. One feat
ure of the meeting, according
to Mr.. G. H. j. Taylor, the
president, Mr.. H. c. G. Atwood,
and others of the colored politi-
clans, will be a declaration against
Anarchy. The organization feels
very strongly on the matter Of the
recent strike, and the members are
outspoken in favor of Mr.. Pullman.
The cause of this is the refusal of
the labor unions to admit colored
mon in their ranks, and proceed
ing on the principal that he should
fight every one that fights him,
nearly every colored man is ready
to get back at his fellow laborers
who have struck him blow by
bringing into prominence the riot
ing and lawlessness which attended
the strike. The leaders say also
that the colored Democratic voters
are against Governor Altgeld, for
whom they claim to have cast 1000
or 5000 votes at the gubernatorial
election and that he can no longer
have their support.
The history of the league, which
appears to mark a departure of
considerable Importance to colored
politics, and which will not be
without effect, perhaps, upon ma
tional politics, is one Of pretty
rapid growth for the last two years.
1t was organized in 1888 in Wash
ingtOn and consisted for some time
of only a handful of men. Since
that time the League has obtained
a foot-hold in nearly every North
ern state, and in many of the states
of the south, so that at this cOnven-
tiOn there will be representation
of at least thirty states, including
the District of Columbia.
The men connected with the or
ganization come from all sections
of the Union, and are representa-
tive colored men in intelligence and
activity. Among the founders
were: President Gross, Of the New
York State League; P. H. Clark, Of
Ohio; Bishop JIM. Crown, C. III. j..
Taylor, of Kansas; J. Milton Tur-
ner, of st. Louis; H. G. c. Atwood,
of Louisiana; A. f. Manning, of
Indianapolis; James f. Matthews,
of Albany, and several others. Mr..
J. Ross, of Iowa, became the head
of rival Democratic organization
at that time, which was in opposi-
tion to Mr.. Cleveland's policy, but
urged with the other the necessity
for the benefit of the race OF a di-
vided negro vote. This organiza-
ton was of puny growth and is re-
ported to have died.

The Girl of To-day.

Every few DAYS some apology for
manhood with more brass than brains
Jumps up with an essay on girls.
This abominable class Of literature
always begins with a sheer and ends
with kick. A distinct favor of
sourness permeates it The genuine
girl is absolutely unessayable. No
body understands her; she doesn't
understand herself. She is delight
full bundle of contradictions. AS wise
as a serpent, she is as innocent as any
sucking dove. She is modest as a
violet and sweet as barrel OF mo-
lasses. She is as rosy as winter
apple and as plump as an Indian
summer partridge. She knows some
thing about the piano and lots bout
making biscuit. She is tender With
her sweetheart and sets the dog on
the other fellow. She is an armful
OF delights, and blessed is the youth
she takes into partnership in wearing
out the sofa. She is a daisy ard d
dumping. and in all Gods created
creation there is nothing worthy to
be named in the same breath with
her Them's our continents aud the
man who differs with us has treason
in his soul aud bile on his liver. -

A Note OF Kindness.

An English woman living in the
town Of Bergen in No way during
many years, was in the habit OF pre-
pairing every Christmas an English
dinner OF roast beef and plum Dud-
ding, to which she invited all of the
English sailors who happened to be in
the port at that time.
The sailors ate, drank. and were
merry, and we ,hope went on their
way bett men, as everybody should
be better for the touch Of kindness
given to cheer the hours Ct life.
But that was not the only result o.
her gentle deed.
An American woman happened &c
be in Bergen on Christmas, heard of
this dinner, and coming nome to
America gave an account OF it to
some Of her friends.
They all listened with pleasure;
but one said. ''why cannot we do
likewise?"
They were all ready to follow.
They all lived in large seaport
town When the next winter came
they formed themselves into Scan
uIDdNluu ulIilcI CIuU, duu gave III u~I
time to the cOncoctiOn OF hitherto
unknown dishes.
They sought out all the Norwegian,
Swedish, and Danish sailors in port,
ana invited them to a home dinner
on Oh: istmas day. The room was
gaily decorated with evergreen and
their national tags: the band played
their own music and on the table
were their own home dishes, chief
among which were Risgleynsgrot
(rice porridge>, and Lett fisk cod
fish,
1t was not costly hospitality, but
it was given and received with hearty
good will. The men VIII probably
would have spent the day drinking in
taverns were reminded Of their
homes, their wives. and Chi dren and
Of the holy purpose of the day.
1t is not the song Of one bird that
cheers the summer morning, but it
is the song caught Up and echoed
from every field and forest, until the
air is turned into music
This little note of kindness has
been echoed once Can it go farther?
