Inauguration Week.

Thousands of strangers will attend
the Inauguration of President McI&in-
ley in March next, and great prepara-
tions are being made by the Public
Comfort Committee Of the Dictrict to
entertain all who come. In addition
to the regular committee a special
committee composed of leading cOlOred
men has been designated by Chairman
Edison to look especially after the
cOlOred people. The officers and mem
bers of this committee appear in print
in another part of this issue Of The
COlOred American. In order that ar
rangements can be made beforehand
for the accommodation of all, it is sug-
geSted that persons who can accOmmo-
date one, two, three, or more persons
send their names to the officers Of the
committee or to the manager Of this
paper. In this way they can be put
into communication with strangers
who intend visiting Washington and
arrangements can be made. A little
announcement similar to the one below
will be carried from now until the first
of March for one dollar. Those who
desire to entertain strangers for few
weeks will have no trouble in securing
the right kind of guests and at rates
that will be satisfactory to all.

the minimum for the appraisement of
school land from So to SIPS per
acre.
All the school land is taken up in
