and director Of the "Amphion Glee
Club" which will soon celebrate the
tenth year Of it's existence, and which
has appeared before the President of
the United States, members of the Cab
met, and people prominent in social
and official life. Prof. Lewis is also
the director Of the Asbury church
choir. He is identified with other mu'
sical enterprises, and is very earnest in
his work. He has selected fifty of the
best ameteur voices for the "Pirates of
Penzance," and has succeeded in secur-
ing very capable company.
The stage will be in charge OF one
of tie best local managers; the costumes
will be furnished by first class theat'
rical outftter, and the music by a
selected orchestra. The idea is to en-
courage patronage for the advanced
class Of music by the colored people,
and Prot. Lewis is fitted by his educa'
ton and musical ability to foster such
a move among bis race. The enter
tainment will evidence the culture
along lines delineating the advance
ment of the best element OF Afro
Americans.

MRS. I. W. HARTMAN.

Mrs. Hartman, wife of |. w. Hart
man is dead. Her spirit crossed the
great divide at an early hour Sunday
morning. Death was the result of a
complication of diseases, and came
after an in6rmlty of nearly four years.
First she was afflicted with a stroke
of paralysis, followed by kidney
trouble, and lastly dropsy. In her
death Bloomsbury loses an excellent
woman. Her life was one of affection
aud fidelity to duty. Such an exist
ence needs no panegyric.
She was born in Bloom township
above Bloomsbury, February 8, 1898,
and lived here all her life. Before her
marriage she taught school for several
years. On February a6, 1850 she was
married to l. w. Hartman, and on
February 20, 1858, they joined the
NJ. f. church. Six children were
born to them,o whom Roscoe died in
infancy. Ida, twin sister of Mrs.
Bateman, died when eleven years old,
and Anna, wife of +. M. Everett died
about fifteen years ago.
Mrs. Hartman was seventy two
years, three months and twelve days
of age. She was a member of the
Methodist Episcopal church, and was
an earnest christian. The deceased
is survived by her husband and three
children, Mrs. Rev. S. E. Bateman,
Robert E., and Edwin V. The fun
eral occurred Tuesday afternoon at
the residence, and was conducted by
Rev. DIR. Frysinger.
