THE CITIIIZED INDIAN.
4 Graduate of Hampton Lectures AT
Moore Memorial Church.

some years ago Bishop Nhipple went 10
waahineton FOR the purpose of getting an
appropriation from the Government 10 IS
tablish Indian schools. Everybody KNOWS
the result Of his earnest enoiis' ID
HAMPTON school. where great many are
being educated. Is noted educational III
stitution. one OF the young men, Mr.. Jo-
seph DuBray. now at school at Hampton
Yesterday gave an interesting sketch OF
the gradual changes in the nature N MS
people from barbarism tc apparently CIVIL
lied conditions.
DuBray is a thoroughbred Indian, ana
despite the fact that he has only hal
any sort of chance 10 obtain an education
during the past four years. his control OF
the English language warrants being
called marvellous
The first comment made by the lecturer
was upon the change of thought all over
the country with regard TO his people
being i'm a hopeless state of barbarism. lie
thought that the work Of the American
Missionary Society deserved the highest
consideration for it's labors to effect this
change.
THE paint and feathers and blankets
are all gone now" he said, and i'm their
place appears the ordinary garb az ciYih-
cation. We do not have your grand build
lncs In the reservations allotted 10 us. we
have only houses constructed Of skins OF
the deer ard other wild animals: but we
do have the sweetness OF the Saviors life
explained TO US at the missionary schools,
and the gradua! growth Of faith IN him
has tended TO destroy the love Of paint and
feathers Of our former savage life When
one of US who have been East for an edu-
cation ga back home he is looked up u
and called upon for advice.
There is no thought Of avoiding him be-
cause of his learning. on the contrary. he
is regarded as o superior. Many OF those
who have been educated are now doing an
almost incalculable amount OF work for
the good of the people. and for the fur
therancc OF the church OF Christ. The most
notable change is in the nature OF the In
dian. As soon AZ he is taught 10 under
stand the love and divinity Of Jesus he
loses much OF his warlike spirit. IL is
impossible 10 enumerate ali OF the changes
for the better We have. that Is. many OF
Us have. learned the value and sweetness
Of Christian lives"
The lecturer made q very good impress
sion, and his manner was free from the
ordinary embarrassment noticeable Of
novice on the platform

When the resolution was taken from
the table during the meeting of the Com
mon Council on Monday evening provid-
ing for an appropriation Of $3.50 for the
erection of an arm0ry for the colored
military. it was expected that "a good deal
Of opposition would be- raised.
The measure had been on the table for
several months. although IL passed the
Board Of Aldermen last summer upon
the recommendation Of the Finance Com
mittee. An effort has been made from
time To time to take up the matter, but
it was without success.
At the meeting OF the Council on Mon
day evening some OF the officers of the
colored military were present 10 adyO-
cate the measure. if necessary, and Alder
man Moore was also on hand 10 use his
influence with the members Of the lower
house. However. all these precautions
were unnecessary for the resolution was
concurred I'm without any opposition.

The military from other cities who

risen Guards the Roanoke Light Infantry,

Blues armory by their caterer, fcTriter,
On long tables the invited guests were
waited on by the members Of the Blues

tion that the Blues never do anything by
halves. There were raw oysters zen
