EEGRO STEAMSHIP
LINE FAILS.

Denver, Col, July 1.-The
Rev. D. E. johnson, poster of
the Church of the Redeemer;
last night announced to his
congregation that the Afro
American Steamship Company
had gone into liquidation and
subscribers to the fund for 3
steamship to Liberia would
have their money returned on
application.
The scheme was sprung over
two years ago and caught the
fancy Of the colored race, who
were assured that they-would
command the respect Of the
world if they once obtained q
footing on the seas. There is
no way of estimating the
amount deposited by the ambi-
tious Afro Americans, it is said
there is little hope of the fund
being restored to the subcribers
in out Of the way places.

Kindergarten Notes.

About fifty ladies were present at
the kindergarten tea given at the home
Of Mrs. Z. o. Lee on Douglas avenue
yesterday afternoon. Mrs. McVicker
gave an interesting address on the
history of the kindergarten movement
in San Francisco, showing that from
discouraging beginning it had grown
to a popular means of doing an in
caIculable amount of good. 1t has
been estimated that of the 5000 who
received training in the kindergartens
Of that city only one person was ever
put under arrest. Mrs. Quay then
gave a brief talk on the Value of Kin
dergarten Training which was illus
trated by games.
Mrs. Plummer read in very
impressive manner extracts from Kate
Dougless Virgins story, Patsy"
The FIoebel class has been reorgan-
lied and its membership will
be increased under the aus
pices of the Free Kindergarten
association. The first of the course of
lectures will be given on Saturday
afternoon from 2 O'Clock to $3.50.
The children of the free kindergar-
ten enjoyed an easter picnic at the
''Old Fort square, on Friday, forty
five eggs were found in the very nests
where the rabbits had laid them, by
the eager and delighted children. The
usual Friday luncheon donated by
friends of the kinderarten was en-
Joyed under the trees.

CAPTAIN MAsON's CONDITION.

The many friends OF Capt. W. n.
Mason will be glad to learn that his
condition is much Improved. He has
been undergoing treatment for cancer,
from which he has suffered for 81
years. It was produced by briar
pricking him on the end of the nose,
and for years only a very small sore
remained. But later on it developed
into a cancer. Captain Mason has
spent great deal Of money on his
face and has suffered intense pain for
many years: He learned Of Dr.. Will
liams, who was treating Captain James
johnson at Rocky Mount, and secured
his services when through with Mr..
Johnston. The cancer has been re-
moved entirely on Captain Johnston's
face, and he is able to work i'll the
garden, so we learned from his son.
He had not been in his field in four
years previous to the operation All
of the cancer has been removed from
Captain Mason's face except a small
particle which is expected to come oil
in day or SC. His friends are very
hopeful of his recovery.

Holland Gave Himself Up.

Holland, the defaulting cashier in
Charlotte, gave hsmself up on Sunday
night. He had not left the city, but
was in the house of a friend and read
the papers, learning what was said of
the affair all the time. He said that
he preferred to be in prison for five
or ten years Iather than to be hunted
like a common criminal, and that he
could see and hear from his family
regularly. He could not bear the idea
of being separated from them and
keeping them in suspense by his un-
known whereabouts. He was not
willing, he said, to have other bank
officials suspected on account of his
absence, as was the case already. He
did not want the public to think they
had winked at his departure. So the
man went to jail in preference. A
full hearing will be had and the public
will know everything shortly.

Crops, Paiu, Suano.

From various sources we gather
that planting is very much retarded by
the rain. Every section seems to be
behind with planting. The hard
winter kept the farming operations
back in this county and now comes
the rainy weather.
There has been an abundance of
rain in most sections. The land is
badly washed and too wet to plant.
The. general opinion is that there
will be at least so per cent less guano
used this year in comparison with last
year. This is the opinion ofcsnserva-
Tive and competent judges.
The acreage has been reduced over
the county from fifteen to twenty per
cent. This will not necessarily re-
duce the crop to twenty. Some men
will make as much on fewer acres
compared with last year.

Wants to Correspond With Fool.
I Ireceived letter on the 2Srd OF
April called an April fool, written by
some one I supposed who lives on the
ridge, known the county over as
Hickory Ridge. The author lives on
the ridge himself, but he is ashamed
to let it be known, as he pretends to
write from Rock City, and asked me
to come down the first of May, and
said also if + did it would be an April
fool He did not sign his name. I
guess he was ashamed Of it, but he
put these figures in its place, I, s, II,

that figures would not lie as he did.
Please come to the front, as that is
where good men stand, and I may
open a correspondence with you.
