DR.. James Lloyd
Brock.

Great prepare lions are being made by
the colOred people of the Twin Cities for
the annual campmeeting to be held mid
way between Minneapolis and st. Paul,
commencing July l and continuing five
weeks. The ministers of the African
churches have been at work for about
three weeks and are today ready to an
nounce that the programme Of exercises
for the meeting will be better than that
of last years, which was pronounced. as
a great success. Rev. J. VIII King has
had charge of the preparations of the
programme and has issued a well printed
pamphlet of sixteen pages containing
the announcement Of the meeting and a
part of the programme.
Probably the number that will please
the coiored people most will be a series
of talks by Mrs. Amanda Smith, of Chi
cago. who appears in the programme as
the oldest colOred minister in the world.
ms Smith has spoken several times. in
Minneapolis and mas shown that she pos
scssCs Il strong voice for one so old, and
has delivered many excellent sermons.

ballots had of late years become numerous that
the Legislature passed act directing the County
Clerk to keep them in sealed packages for period
Of six months the expiration OF which time they

Colt saying that eleven such ballots had not been
counted in the Fifth Election District of the With
Assembly District. The ballots have been marked

election districts also cited under the same
circumstances. Mr.. Conkling said that unless the
order was granted it would be necessary TO have
a Congress Committee come on from Washington
