completed his report and it is now in

TRUCKERS CONTEST.

The Truckers Contest was pulled
of last night, and the coons who as
sembled at the colored pavilion
'sho did have a hot time of it.
There was a band engaged for de
occasion and the fddlers and wind
iambers did make much music, and
the coons did dance and have gay
time. The city editor was al on
lockers for a time, principally at the
box office with the ticket seller, one
of his white friends, who gave him
an admission ticket, with the prom
ise that the fun would pay him for
the attendance. The negroes began
to arrive and about one out of every
five had the price of a ticket, the
balance claimed to be truckers" or
"cake walkers, and after haggiing
with the colored managers, who
was responsible for the prizes were
either fired out or allowed to pass
in. This was the best part of the
circus, to listen to the conversations
between the "beat" and the "man
behind the enterprise. The show
was not the bowling financial sue
cess, the manager looked for, but he
was game and pulled off the con-
test, and man by the name of
Branch was declared the winner,
We learn the festivities were kept
up until the wee small hours of
morning. On our way back home we
walked west en- 10th and 9th streets,
East Side, and we must say that
the streets we passed in this part of
the city should be re-christened and
instead of saying 10th, 9Th and 9Th
streets, we should call them by
proper names and say, 10th Gulley,
9th Wash, 9th Lagoon, etc. We
passed one place-where buggy
house was built facing the street,
and there was just six measured
feet of space between the door and
an awful yawning chasm. To say
that the streets of the East Side, in
that part of the city, east of the
Sand Flats, occupied by the colored
population, is in a IdiIapidated con-
dition, not conceivable by any one
until they have travelled over them
and made a personal inspection, is
but telling potent fact.

1t is fact that to the white men
of the south, the negro owes graft
tude for numerous blessings-among
them employment and the educa-
ton of the young. While this is
true the negro is ever ready to do
his benefactor harm. To the north
ern man or foreigner he turns for
advice and gives them all his trade
where it is possible. Strange what
little gratitude they show. Politi,
cally they also make every effort to
down their best friends. This is
one reason the negro question is SC
hard of solution. If they had any
sense they would get along much
better. By opposing their white
friends they make their lot harder

British Entry at Pretoria.

London, June 6, (1O:35 p. ny
Lord Roberts telegraphed to the
war Office as follows:
Pretoria, June 6 (5:35 a. ~
The occupation of the town passed
off most satisfactorily, and the
British flag is now hoisted on top OF
the government buildings.
"The troops met with much
more enthusiastic reception than !
anticipated. The Third battalion
of the Grenadier Guards lined the
square when the march past took
place,
"Owing to their having been on
duty at some distance around the
town very few cavalry and infantry
were able to take part in the cere-
mony.
Several of our officers who had
been prisoners were among the on
lockers"

Hanna Leads the Administration.

The New York Journal, referring
to Hanna's leadership and the Re-
publican platforms of cant and rant
of "empty words and broken
promises, says: Hanna leads the
administration like a red OK with a
brass ring through its nose. As
the OK, Mckinley is responsible, ex-
cept within the limit of his rope.
1t is Hanna first, last and always,
and for all the scandal and rascality
connived at and covered up the peo-
pie will demand an explanation.
"Here are few of the things
that voters will do well to make an
especial study of between now and
election day:
"The Alger embalmed beef scan
dal.,
1.-The tariff expressions of the
Porto RiCans.
"The United States army out
RACES on the Occur d'Alene miners,

element in Cuba.
"The Hay Pauncefote treaty by
/ which we are to build an isthmidn
canal while England commands.
"Tattoed and daubed with such a
damning record, the Republican
party will find its platform a very
minor consideration with the peo.
pie"

The appointment of Hazel, award
politician of Buffalo, as judge of the
Urited States District Court, has
brought out the charge-which has
been admitted-that he received a
commission of $4,000 for selling a
yacht to the government for $500
during the war. Other commissions
were paid amounting to$l5, 900, and
after the war was over the goverDI
ment tried in vain to sell the yacht
for $4,000. This is only sample

FATAL. COLORS.

1t has been proven that soldiers
are hit during battle according to
the color of their dress, in the fol-
lowing ordered is the most fatal.
Austrian grey is the least fatal
The proportions are red twelve, rifle
green seven, brown six, Austrian
blush grey five. There is one other
color, not mentioned, more fatal
and that is the pallor of weakness.
If it has commenced to paint its
deathly hue upon your cheek, and
the stomach weakens and life seems
not worth living, 90 to the druggist
and obtain a bottle of Hostetters
Stomach Bitters. It. will give you
life and energy. 1t does this by
making the stomach strong and the
blood pure. 1t is unequalled for
such disorders as indigestion, dys-
pepsia, or malaria, fever and ague.

held at Crystal Palace in Leipsic a
new apparatus for generating gas
from gasolene was shown. The gas
can be used for Illuminating, cook
ing and heating purposes and for
motors The apparatus is intended
for districts where there are no gas
works, for factories, saloons, farm
houses and country seats. 1t can
be placed in any good sized room
which is not exposed to frost. 1t is
automatic and colorless, and its use
requires no technical knowledge.
The gas is pure and cannot explode.

THE SHEPPARD RIFLES.

The Sheppard Rifles met last
night at their armory to discuss
place and time of holding a picnic.
After a short line up and the call
ing of the roll, the company got
down to business. Mr.. Styles Rag
land was on hand to speak for
Spirit Lake as the most attractive
picnic ground and when he got
through, the company resolved to
have their picnic at the above
place. The Goth of the month was
selected as the time.
Committees on printing and
grounds and arrangements were
appointed to work up the affair.
We ask that the arrangement
committee see to it that the round
trip ticket takes in the terry charg-
es at the lake and that they allow
no extortion charges to be made.
We would suggest to them to have
embodied in their printed matter
lust what is expected of each one
to pay patrOnizing the picnic. If
the boats are free, say so, or, il
they are to be charged for during
the day or hour in which they are
used, give the price, etc. Texark-
ana people pic-niced at Spirit Lake
once and they found on arriving
at the lake that in order to find a
shade they must cross over to the
island and pay ten cents ferry both
ways, and many even who were able
to pay the charge kicked at what
they thought an imposition, and
this has been the cause of Spirit
Lake not being selected as a place
of resort since.
We do not expect Mr.. Weathers'
by to give the boats to the people
free or row them across the lake
without some compensation, but
the management should arrange tc
pay him so much for the use of the
boats and take those who go to the
pic mic across the lake without ad
ditional charge and also bring then
back, and look after the renta
of the boats during the day. II
the pic mic is made a success there
must be some inducements offered
We hope the company will consid
er our suggestions in the kindly
way in which we make them.
