Cleveland's Polyglot Negro Laundress
cleveland Leader

The young housewife of an east end fat
received decided surprise the other day,
when, in answering some questions, the
colored woman who goes TO the fat once
a week to perform the duties of laundress
said, ''Oui. madame
What, can you speak French?'' she
asked.
ION, yes" said the laundress.
''Sprechen Sic DeutSch?" asked the lady
with the remnants of her school German
oh, yes; and Spanish and Italian"
said the laundress. 1t was another illus
tllUion of what a little world it is. after
all. The father of the laundress had
been native of the Bermudas. who had
been taken from there to London and edu-
Gated by English tourist. who took a
fancy to him a little fellow. From
London the Bermudian had gone TO New
Orleans to make his home. and married
a slave girl whose freedom he bought the
laundresS being their daughter Her
father had taught her, when she was a
baby. a little of French, German Span
ish and Italian, and she had remembered
il. After the washing was done she en-
tertained the mistress of the fiat by
singing quaint little French and Spanish
songs, accompanying herself on the pi-
ano. With all her other accomplishments
her employer says she is a good laun-
dress, which, perhaps, shows the rela tive
value of accomplishments in making
living.

RED BIRD NINE SOLD
Big Mine In Idaho Brings Over
100000.
BLACKBIRD co. GETS IT
ONE OF TIE BIGGEST GOLD
PROPERTIES IN THE STATE.

The Blackbird CoDper-Gold Mining
company has just closed another i'm
porrant purchase of Idaho property and
issued it's checks tor more than s1OO
600 in the requirement of the great
Red Bird gold properly, some fifteen
miles northwest of Salmon City. The
names of the vendors could not he
learned, but they are reported TO be
all residents of Salmon, and the pur-
chase price viii be divided among some
o. six of them.
The property has been DEVELOPED ex-
tenSiVely during the past year under
bond, and it is known that the monster
ledge which traverses the ground solid
Tor no less than one and a half miles
has right now more than $50. OGG tons of
gold ore in sight. ore which at a most
conservative estimate will WELD over
Sc per ton on the nIates taken as If
comes, while sensationaily high values
nave been known to come from certain
portions of It.
The company, The EeraId is reliably
informed, will continue the develop
cnent of the mine for possibly another
year, when a mill Commensurate with
the needs of the undertaking will be
erected on the property and the rock
made TO dlsiodge its golden treasure.
The BlackbiTd company has done
with the Red Bird Just what il has
been doing with all the numerous prop
critics IN which it has invested such
vast sums of money during the mast
lew months. namely: 1t first secured
what was considered a reasonable bond
and then proceeded 10 determine by
systematic work and the liberal ex-
pend1ture Of money whether the price
demanded should be finally paid or not
In other words. it is one of the very
rev investment companies which has
shown the nerve to spend it's money in
making mines, rather than demanding
that mines be shown before taking
hold. In this way it has acquired some
magnificent properties in Idaho and
Ctah as well-DrODerties which. had
they been first developed, could not
nave been touched for q great many
times what they cost.
To TINS system, urged upon the syn
dicate by Dr. p. A. H Franklin. and
TO its winnbg features being readily
understood ~ those behind it. is due
the splendid achievements made. The
Blackbird'S success will be the means
OF much more work upon the same
lines in the years to come, as it per
fectly demonstrates that the true way
and the cheap way to acquire big mines
Is to get hold of the crude material
and open it up.

The refusal OF the negroes OF Mont

the city ordinance commands that the
front portion of each car shall be re
served for white passengers and the
rear portion for cOiOred passengers,
leaves the cars practically at the dis
pOsaI of the White people, and as is
observed with some surprise by the
press OF Montgomery, many people
who never rode in the street cars be
fore, or who had given up the practice
of riding. owing TO the perVaSlveneSS
of the negro in the street car, began
the patronage of the service, and to
such an extent that the Belt line re-

they were when both whites and blacks

CURED to make them square on the
books of the company, a good crowd
was present and bidding was quite
lively. The first certificate put up for
sale called for one share only, and it
was finally sold for 80 cents Some
thing like 100 shares went for the price
OF the easement and costs, while the
balance was taken at the rate of $40. 80
for 800 out of each 1000 shares deIin-
quent or 4 cents share, plus the
costs In other words. most of the de-
nnquents had to sacrifice only half of
their holdings. Not a single share went
into the treasury.
Speculation is now rife as to what
VIII happen next, but as the directors
are scheduled to meet tomorrow and
as the mill has closed down pending
further developments in the mine, the
Oellcf is general that another 2-cent
contribution will then be called for.
