NARROW ESCAPE.

Mr.. Duncan Mclean had n narrow es-
cape from drowning last night shortly
after o'clock. He was engaged in roll
Ing a large dry goods box from the
rear of an old fish market Just west of
store, when he stepped into
hole. With great presence of mind he
extended his arms and hung suspended
from two beams, the box falling on top
Of him. Officers Settem and Keegan,
who happened to be passing. heard his
call for assistance and rescued him
from his perlilous position. The box
covered Mr., Mclean and the
officers had some difficulty in locating
him. The wonder is he was not in
Jured when the box fell.

ONE DOLLAR PER YEAR.

The management of The WASH
INaToN BEE has decided to secure
thirty thousand subscribers by Jan
uary l, 1897.
Todo this it has been decided to
reduce the subscription price from
two dollars per year to one dollar
per year and three cents per copy.
This will enable all classes who
want the paper to obtain it.
The BEE is the second oldest pa
per in the District Of Columbia
white or color d. The Evening
Star is the oldest.
This paper is the most reliable
one and the most fearless in de
Tending wrongs against public
property and personal liberty.
THE BEE for '97 will surpass all
efforts in Afro-American journal
ism and if you want q great race
paper, The BEE should be sent for
now.
Our inaugural Guide that is in
course of preparation will be
another great Afro-American enrer-
prise for '97. Send in your names
now and yeu will not only get THE
BEE for one year for one dollar but
will receive free a copy of THE
BEES Inaugural Guide for '97,
which will be issued March l.
We are placing in our press rooms
a new steam engine and fine news
paper press which VII also enable
the Company to do all classes of
work.
The BEE is the greatest Afro
American advertising medium in
this country which is evidenced by
the high class of advertisements
in the paper from time to time.
The BEE carries more high class
advertisements than any other pa
per in this city.
1. Do you want a great race
defender?
The Bee then is that paper.
2. Do you want your boys con-
nected with great race paper!
The Bee is that paper.
3. Has The Bee failed to de-
fend the interests of the people
when an attempt has been made to
abridge them?
The Bee is that paper that has
withstood the storms of opposition
and oppression.
The Bee will be the paper that
knows no North, South. East or
West. But a paper of the people.
Toadyism in Afro-American jour-
nalism has been too prevalent in
this country. The wrongs against
the race have been winked at and
compromised by such Afro-Ameri-
can editors and socalled representa-
tives that the time has come in the
history of this country that there
should be at least one true defender
of the people at theCapital of this
republic.
Write at once for terms. Send
