OUR SHIPPING REPORTS.

In order to settle all questions that
have been or may be made as to the
reliability or exclusiveness of The
TINES shipping Information, Capt.
Otto Johannesen has published q
statement, over his signature, to the
effect that THE TIMES has the exclu-
sive right to the use Of his records.
AS Captain Johannesens records

this city, the Importance and signit1-
canoe of the announcement to all
those who desire accurate shipping

important and, in fact, an indispsn-
sible source of news.

THE NEW WOMAN

She wHrbled the soprano with dramat-
10 sensibility,
And dallied with the organ when the
organist was sick:
She got up for variety q brand new
church society,
And spoke with great facility about
the new bricks.
She shed great tears OF sorrow for the
heather immortality,
And organized system that would
open up their eyes;
In culinary charity she won great pop
ularity,
And showed her personality in leo
turing on pies.
For real unVarnished culture she be-
trayed great propensity;
Her Tuesday talks were famous, and
her Friday glimmers great,
She grasped at electricity with mental
elasticity,
And lectured with intensity about
the marriage state
But with the calm assurance of he,
wonderful capacity,
She wouldn't wash the dishes, bui
she'd talk all day on rock,
And while she dwelt on density, OF
space and its immensity,
With such refined audacity, he,
mother darned the socksI

Signs Of Good Times

DANvILLE, VA, Aug. "A. 1897.
The profusion Of sinners OF poor
white folks aud Negroes who confessed
their sins before Mayor Wooding Mon
day afternoon remind us of the good
old times when these two classes were
making some money and were more
reckless and rowdy. AS a conse-
queDce $37 90 was realized and the
blue birds are out for another sweep.
The world is coming to an end on the
18th day of November 1899 by a celli-
sion with a comet and the whole hui
man family will he poisoned by the
gas or burnt to death, says Prof. Falb.
Then you had better quit your mean
ness, pay up all old accounts and get
yourself in shape for fatal dash into
eternity.
TBB RIGHT NAME.
A correspondent of the Atlanta Con-
stitution, who referred to this district
as the Bloody Fifth" has good recol-
loctive faculty. The name is very ap-
plicsble and the Daily Register should
not question the origin nor the gem
uiness of the expression. but simply
recall the days of So 1t seems as
hough Danville will never out grow

the tarnish upon its brilliant character

The beautiful sacred cantata Queen
Esther" was most successfully pre-
scented to large audience of colored
people and sprinkling of white peo-
pie at the High Street Church last
Monday night by forty trained voices
under the management of Prof r. j.
Adams. Individual merit, Miss /. A,
Smith, Danvile's charming and favor
lite soprano in the roll of Queen was
far above excellence. Mr.. l.. Il. Bu-
ford as king appeared quite natural
and unassuming and played his part
with telling effect. That sterling fav-
orite, G. Z. Y. Boisseau graced the
role of HAman as no one but the cul-
tured can. Then there was Prof
Adams as Mordecai, the publication o.
whose very name did more to assure
the public of the general excellence o.
the entertainment than anything thai
could be written. Miss Gay B. Ban
mister as Zeresh, was without supe
rior. A great deal more could b,
written regarding the number and in
dividual merits OF this mammoth com

Mr.. Editor
Seeing in the issue of the
14th instant an account of the at
tempted assault upon Miss Gertrude
Johnson, an orphan girl, feel 1T my
duty as one who admires sanctity in
womanhood, to say. that she has set an
example that is worthy of imitation
by all of her sisters.
desire, also, to congratulate you
upon the fact that, this is simply a
corallary from the proposition you
have tried SO long to demonstrate,
namely that what is known as the
Usual Crime" is not confined abso-
lutely TO the Afro-American race.
The Negro Virginian," John H.
Smyth, and the Banister Baptist Asso-
citation, would do we'll to take notice
Of this fact.
The day, hope, is not far, when
colored men will rise with equal una
nimity as white men in defence OF
their women.
May Miss Gertrude Johnson live
long; and may the day come when her
name will be a synonym with every
thing that is noble in woman.
MIR. Editor, wish you and your race
journal long and prosperous life.
