laurance Dunbar in Washington.

The following incident in connection
with Paul Laurence DunbarS life in
Washington shows the strength of the
racial prejudice which, still exists in that
cosmopolitan centre:
Mr.. Dunbar held a somewhat prominent
position in the library Of Congress.
Through this position and his writings he
formed large circle of acquaintance
among the prominent and influential peo-
pie of the city.
Among these was the secretary of a So
cial club of high standing, who asked Mr.
Dunbar to read from his writings at an
entertainment to be given under the aus
pieces of the club.
The evening of the entertainment came.
MIR. Dunbar made his way to the club
house. He noticed that as he took his
seat in the entertainment hall several la
dies nearby drew their skirts closer to
tnem AS this was a common occurrence
in his experience Mr.. Dunbar gave il
little or no attention. although the slight
was apparent to al! III that part of the
room.
The worst was yet to come. The pro-
gram was begun: several numbers were
given. in fact the end seemed near. and
still no one had come To Mr.. Dunbar 10
inform him when he should appear. in
ally the secretary of the club. undoubt
