HE Is ILL IN THE CAPI-
TAI CITY.
A TRAINED NURSE AT

His w Wife,S A tfet1tiOr1s
His Wife's Attentions.
A Strange Conclusion.

Rev. w. w Browne is as yet in
Washington. His case is hopeless. A
trained nurse has been employed, and
her skill tends t. make him rest easier.
His arm shows no sign of improve
ment and his once stalwart frame has
been reduced almost to a skeleton, he
is q pitiable object. His terrible suf-
fering has not tended to improve his
temperament, and he is impatient un-
der the restraint.
He now replizes keenly that he has
seen his last and best days, and is now
at the waters edge Of eternity. His
wife has been tireless in her devotion
to him. She came to the city last
week and returned to his bedside.
Although Rev Browne is so danger
ously i'll, he as yet has fairly good
appetite At times, he is childish. He
re cOgnizes all of his friends and is
thoroughly resigned to the inevitable.
as strange as it may seeln, some OF
his associates, and it is understood
that he TO en- extent himself believes
that he has been 'tricked-conjured." ("
Much sympathy has been expressed
for the aiiEng chieftain, and his unfor-
tunate predicament has caused much
Apprehension amongst the brotherhood
DIR. K. w. Brown, a popular c~lored
physician of the capital city has the
case in hand, although he has called in
other surgeons to assist him.
The patient will not hear to the
proposition TO amputate the limb, and
it is generally conceded that at this
stage OF the disease, he is right; for
the application OF the surgeons knife
would well-nigh Immediately end the
existence Of tie subject.

very richly prepared sheet and well
read showing her good qualities as q
reader and the excellent manner in
which she has been trained. She is q
student of the High School.
The speech of MT. London was very
good. Judging from his talk, we are
forced to believe that he has the ''G.
z. o." for he certainly knows the
scriptures; and pleased his hearers
with his scriptural speech. 60 on Bro

confidently expect in few years to be

who understand the latest methods of
tilling the soil and who shall know how
to make farming pay. The condition
OF the colored farmers in most places
now is something almost deploPable.
