business, put his own boys and girls
in charge and grow rich. Hear this
voice and do not go about begging tor
admission and accommodations where
we are told plainly we are not wanted.
American prejudice may yet do tor us
what a lack Of race pride fails to ac-
complish-force the negro to patron
ize himself and to grow rich in the
goods Of this world"
That negro's head and heart are
both right. He is brave man and
dares to speak the truth. l wonder
why the negro papers don't copy that
address. It should be scattered
broadcast among their readers and
would do good. But the Atlanta edi-
tors are not on that line. They want
sensation and northern sympathy.
They are politicians. Politicians and
peachers keep things hot. My friend
Ham, who has been to chautauqua
in Missouri, says he heard a lecture
there from Bishop Fowler, on Abra-
ham Lincoln, in which he took occa-
sion to lampoon and sca-ify US as is
usual up there, and among other
things recharged that old lie that
Governor Brown had offered reward
of S., 900 to have William Lloyd Gar
rison kidnapped and brought to Geor-
gia. The bishop ought to make up a
new stock. Those old lies are worn
out. He knew it was lie when he
repeated it. This is a lie for which
there was no excuse and no founda-
tion, but it is good traveller and
preachers can send lie as far as any
body. If the devil, who is the father
Of lies, has any preference for sub
jects, think he would choose lying,
slanderous preacher before anybody.
But suppose that wasn't a lie; what
good can possibly come Of resurrecting
it now? Joe Brown is dead; Garrison
is dead, and maybe they have settled
their own affairs over there. was
ruminating about the difference be-
tween this white northern bishop and
the black man, President Council, who
made that kind, conciliatory address at
Bismarck, and that brought to mind
the persistent SANDERS of our south
ern hero, Lieutenant Hobson, who
was retired almost to oblivion because
he was a southern man. Not long ago
the English government presented to
a sailor the annual medal for the
greatest act of individual heroism per-
formed during the year. He had
saved TWO men at sea when no other
man would dare TO attempt it, and the
inquiry was made in northern paper
as to who was entitled to the medal
in the United States. Why Hobson,
Of course. No other act of individual
heroism will compare with his, but
yankee newspapers and reporters were
jealous of Elm, just like they are of
Schley, and they magni6ed few kisses
into thousands and made sport Of him.
The yellow journals and the white
ones are all alike for lies on our men.
Suppose the ladies did kiss him and
he submitted to it. They, are the best
judges of heroism know Of. He was
sent away TO Japan. and~a letter from
Miss Benedict in the last Missionary
gives extracts from a speech he made
at Kobe to the Young Mems Chris
tian Association, that we're beautifully
patriotic and full Of Christian spirit
and missionary zeal. Maybe Miss
Benedict kissed him. She did not
say, but he deserves all that he gets.

A NATIONALITY EVIL.
How Horses Are often Abused in
Backing Out.

Amelia S Stowell Secretary Of the
Washington Humane Society, has com
planned to the Commissioners that the al
ley between Nineteenth Street and New
Hampshire Avenue and o and p Streets
is too narrow to permit two teams to pass
and suggests that teams be required to
enter at one end and make their exit at
the other This request seems to have
been prompted BY the fact that under
present arrangements teams are frequently
forced to back out. an undertaking in
which many drivers abuse their animals
The matter was referred to an inspector

A milliner who is located on one of the

A reporter for the G 10 b copied the
announcements yesterday, which read as
follows:
About Sept. /, I am going back to Eu-

Paul, and thanking the ladies for their
kindness to me, but l don't feel sorry In
leaving.
Losing considerable damaged goods in
this store through broken steam pipes,

disguised to stay any longer. In trying
to take some out of the rent, alas a great
big, rude man was sent to me. l told him
about the damage. He said, woman, no
damage will be paid to you. The full
rent; also $3.50 expenses, or 1 fix your
This is what makes me thinking the
best would be leaving altogether. Just
humanity I received in the old country,
also they are glad of me coming home.
The other placard reads:

Alas: This was his explanation; $12 so

much for such humanity laws, this settles
my mind Such laws would be my ruina-
ton. It may be good for heaven to save
me from richness, but I prefer going
back to Europe to give this kind noble
agent my successor.
Attached to the above placard was a
note from the agent of the building,
which read:
Unless your placards of defamation are
removed from the windows of -
avenue before II o'clock noon today
there will be libel suit started against
you which will show you some more of
the law of our land and either cost YOU
a lot more money or put you behind the
bars.
The "placards of defamation" were not
removed by the stated time in the note,
and the residents in the neighborhood are
wondering what the next move will be.
A neighbor plumber said that he spent
a good part of the winter in the store in
question fixing up the bursted water pipes.
A number of ST Anthony hill ladies have
interested themselves in the case and
half should any action be taken against
her.
