.1gnoo oura elaent to tho colored,

- s59rA
MIR. EDITOR: Please give mo mo a
little space in your appreciated paper
to mention some facts about tho land
which was purchased by the colored
people OF Clio q few years ago when
the great rumor was ahoat about tho
colored people going to Arkansas and
other western states. We, the people
Of Gle, came together aid organized
an association and proposed to buy
land in this county and raise whatever
we could. At that time money was
scarce and times very hard, aud we
could not raise the amount of cash
necessary to purchase the tract Of land
we wanted at that time. But, to show
you that any man will be holped if he
tries to help himself we went to Hon.
Q. s. Mccall, man that has good will
for all and i'll will for none. TO him
we made our wants and wishes known.
and he being o man that has sympathy
for the poor, opened his treasure and
loaned Tie money enough to pay for the
land, which was $1,000 and then he
waited very patiently on us until we
could pay tho said amount back.
We succeeded in raising the amount
and sstulnc0 it 10 him, and to-day ne
q. I p. : . .
layc the land paid for, and it was
I}rs7h q,he ltindpcys Of Mr.. Mccall
ii'tsF@ leoplo in the town
Of Clio own homes OF their own. Wo
feel at q loss to ind words strong
enough to express our sincere thanks
to him for his kind fayors and gentle
dealings with US. we will assure him
that it is an event that will be fresh in
our memories until wo have spent our
last moments on earth, and we ask him
to ever feel that we are his woll wishers
in his undertakings in this life, and
when his earthly tabernacle is dissolved,
may he have building not made with
hands, but eternslly in heayen. We
think that's where he ought to 20 for
his love to the poor.
Now, in conclusion, let me say to
the colored people of Marlboro county
that instead Of your tramping around
from ono state to another, walking
through deep sand and climbing high
hills, seeking for some easy place where
money grows on trees, better for you
to put your shoulder to the wheel Of
energy in this county and secure homes
for yourselves, for "a rolling stone
never gathers much moss" No more
excuse. Just try to help yourself and
if you find yourself powerless, 60 to
some good man like Mr.. Mccall and
you will be successful in your efforts,
Now, see to it for your own sake, your
wives and your children. iii
Yours respectfully,

MYRTLE GILLETTE FOUND.
The FRedonia Girl Appears at the St
Louis Station in a Sad Condition.

st. Louis, Aug. 18.-MyrtIe Gillette
the young woman who was with James
B. Tucker when he committed suicide
at the LindeH hotel on Wednesday, Au-
gust 5, and who formerly lived at Ere
donia, Kan, was taken under the shell
tering wing of Police Matron Harris
yesterday.
She staggered into the Four Courts a
total wreck, mentally and physically,
saturated with whisky and crazy with
morphine
Miss Gillette, after a long sleep, was
more composed and talked of her ter
rible experience at some length for the
first time. She said she met Tucker
in this city over a year ago She knew
he was a married man and had chill
dren, and she knew she was doing
wrong in taking up with him. But he
held a power over her; to her he was a
hypnotist.
1T was a terrible life led with that
man." she said, yet I loved him as
faithfully as woman could love man.
He took me to Chicago and we lived to-
gether there several months. I told
him wanted to leave him and return
to my old, respectable method of life.
He promised me it should be as he
said, and he took me to Kansas City.
Then he brought me back to st.
Louis. He had no money, and I told
him it was wrong for him to lay me
liable to exposure by pursuing the
course he did. Matters ran along in
this manner until the suicide. Mr..
Tucker deceived his mother, he de-
ceived his wife and children, he de-
ceived me, and he deceived himself.
Since his death I have been in awful
misery. I have been disowned by my
father and mother. I have not liv-
ing friend"

A YOUNG MEMS NIGHT.

Call Monster Meeting at Hamilton
Hall to Discuss Mosques and

News.

Look here said a young man to-
day" are US fellows going to let the
girls do all this Fall Festival business?
Not much. What's the matter of us
boys having a little committee of our
own and doing a little something. The
girls have had their own way long
enough
It's my opinion we ought to take car
nival night of the week into our hands
The Committee of Fifteen has got
enough to do and what do they know
about carnivals anyway. Charley Eel
lows can't dance and neither can Cen
eral Bradford. Billy Edwards is get
ting too old and Captain Titus don't
want to. A. K. Rodgers might. but he
won't; it wouldn't be dignified. I'm
going to see some of the boys about
this right away"
1t was the concensus of opinion
among the boys that something
ought to be done and Charley Adams,
who is member of the Committee of
Fifteen himself, thought it all out in
few minutes.
wouldn't it be a good idea,'' he said,
ito slet committee of the young men
in town take charge of getting up the
carnival just as the ladies are getting
up the floral festival? I believe all the
young men will fall right into the
scheme and be glad to help push it
along Without the young men the
carnival night will be no good anyway.
4 have been corresponding with Will
Haskell, who on one or two years has
had charge of the carnival feature at
Kansas City, and I believe he will be
glad to come and run the thing for US.
He can get all sorts of costumes and
knows how the thing is done.
MY idea would be to call a, monster
mass meeting Of the young fellows at
Hamilton hall or the Grand Opera
House; have a band there to help start
the enthusiasm and have half dozen
good breezy, incendiary takers like
Joe Waters and Charley Holiday to
touch the thing off. 1t will go like a
rocket and carnival night will be the
hurrah of the week.
I'VE can then appoint our big COM
mittee, organize with chairman and all
the rest and push it through in grand
style"
It's a scheme worth trying and no
body can make it a surer go than the
young men. OF course anybody can
take part on the big night in the dance
and display on Kansas avenue.

MRS. FINCH'S LOAN.
She Deposited a So Gold Piece to Sc
cure 81 in Silver.

Sioux City, Ia, Aug. 18.-Weare &
Allison, a local banking firm, are glee-
fully exhibiting to their customers a
remarkable communication from Mrs.
A. L. Finch, of this city. Mrs. Finch,
it appears. in anticipation of the sue
cess of the white money party, put all
her ready cash into gold, expecting to
hold it until after the November cleo
ton.
Her disgust may be imagined when,
a few days ago, circumstances made it
imperatively necessary that she raise a
small sum to hquidate certain out
standing Indebtedness. At first she
feared that she would be compelled to
pay out a part of her gold reserve.
When all looked darkest, however a
plan for Obviating this difficulty sug-
gested itself to her mind. A messenger
was dispatched to Weare & Allison
bank with the following epistle:
Messrs. Weare & Allison, bankers: -
VIII you let me have "a in silver if
deposit a S. gold piece with you, with
the privilege of redeeming the gold
piece within 80 days?
MRS. A. L. FINCH.
The bankers were well satisfied with
the security offered and Mrs. Finch
had little difficulty in securing the de-
sired advance.

WHAT BOOKS no BUY.
That is the Question That Comes Be
fore the County.

The school book agents are on the
anxious seat this week The question
of county uniformity has been settled
by the voters of the school districts,
but now the more important question
what books are to be adopted, is to be
decided.
This matter is looked after by a
text book board" which is made up
by representatives from the various
townships. The members of the var
ious school boards in the county meet
on next Thursday and select some one
to represent the township at a meet
ing of the text book board
When this board meets it decides
what books are to be used hereafter
in the schools of the county.
When county uniformity was first
adopted five years ago the American
Book company captured most of the
laurels and their books were adopted.
Now there is another competitor in the
field in the person of George W. Crane
and he will not let the adoption of the
books now in use be made without a
fight.
The test will be made on Thursday
and the representatives of the various
companies are working hard to secure
the election of the right men on the
text book committee.
