Hale Robinson X Go.

On Friday night before Christ mas this scribe was the recipient of a box of barbecued meat, nice cake, of different kinds, custards, eonfeetions, &c., from his old col ored friend, Doss Jones. The oc- casion which called for the cook ing of these good things was the marriage of his son, Claude to Sa- rah Belle Brooks, daughter of Aiz Brooks, another old-time, before the-war colored man. We under stand that the marriage of these young colored people was quite q swell affair, which took place at one of the colored people churches, where they had maids of honor, flower girls, best men, organ strains, orange blossoms and all the paraphernalia and concomi- tants of q high-Hfe wedding. We know nothing of the young people ; but if they will do as well as their old parents, who were probably joined in wedlock, in the olden days, by the light of the moon,  they will fill their stations in life to a good purpose, and reflect credit upon their race and them selves, and this we hope they will do, and in such an endeavor WIG ;-L 4La,,, ,,,ofi

The Man or Men

Who can drink the quantity of drug store whiskey in one day that those New Haven detectives did, and re- member all their doings that day, must be a heteroclitical hibbertergib- bet. But the people who are foolish enough to drink the tea and coffee which some people are guilty of selling knocks the spotters sky high. We can't understand why sensible people will pay good money for poor tea and coffee, when they can just as easy come to our store, and get the good kind for the same price they pay for the poor quality elsewhere. We'll, the liquor spies are through with their sensational work and the excitement has all blown over: now, since such is the case, we hope and trust they have shown hundreds, yes thousands of people. that it's all folly to drink in toxicating drink every time you're thirsty. It's all nonsense to have such ideas. Just try some good, clean. nice tasting tea or coffee when you are thirsty next time and see how much happier and contented you will feel. Remember, one pound of our Tea will make 315 cups of q delicious beverage. Figure it out and see how much per cup it costs you. 30 cents per pound and 4 bars of best soap with each pound.
