jump from 8 O'Clock in the morn
ing until about the same time in
the evening. Mr.. Clark is one of
those men that has made himself
a job, and he is staying by it.
Such men are to be commended in
the highest and terms, and the
leading white men appreciate the
spirit and ambition of such col
Ored men and they will give them
work in spite of what is said of
their natural antipathy for the
Negro race.

One Of Seattle's most reliable
and trustworthy A<~3 americans
is Walter Washington, who has
been Seattle's poundmaster for
the past four years. He draws a
regular pOliceman's salary besides
other ways he has to make side
money. Mr.. Washington during
the past year has been investing
every dollar he could get hold of
in Seattle realty, and New Year,
1902, found him the proud posses
sOr Of some valuable realty, free
of incumbrance.

Many efforts have been made by
cOlOred men at various times to
maintain a club where the rail
road porters and the colored men
about town could go and enjoy
themselves as they saw fit, but all
efforts along this line were fail
ures until Frank Bellamay opened
up such an institution. He not
only has a club room, but he has
a restaurant in connection and is
doing a splendid business. Mr..
Bellamay, like Mr.. Lyons, is anx-
iOus that The Republican sue
ceed, and he, too,> has voluntarily
consented to make it obligatory
on the part of bushes men with
whom he deals to advertise their
business in The Seattle Republi-
can. 1t is such friendship or racial
interests as this that makes a race
of people, however weak they may
have been, strong in every re-
spect. Mr.. Bellamay for years
lived in Spokane, where he was
we'll and favorably known, and
the same is true of him in Seattle

While The Republican must ad-
nit that Mr.. Geo. Rideout has not
seen as much service along the
catering line as Mr.. Clayton and
Mr.. Woods in this city, yet he bids
fair to become equal to either Of
them in the business. Already
Mr.. RideOut's fame to serve din
ner parties and entertainments
where much care and attention
must be given is becoming wide
spread, and he is getting many
calls. Mr.. RideOut, as said above,
will wear we'll and will prove to
be most excellent man in the
very, very near future, as he
comes to Seattle from Montana
with an enviable record along this
line.

Seattle has a number of tip-tOp,
up-tO-date caterers, and they have
all the work in their line that they
can do and even more. The head
waiter of the Rainier Grand,
Thomas Woods, has held the pO-
sition for the past four years, and
though the house has frequently
changed hands, Tom, as he is
known among the guests, is fix
ture. So successful has he been

IN BLACK
Under Critical Eye of OBJ
serving Men.

At the beginning of the year
1902 The Republican feels in
clined to enumerate the Afro
Americans in Seattle who are en-
deavoring to do business from a
commercial standpoint. 1t will be
remembered that Seattle all told
has not to exceed 1000 cOlOred
men, but comparing them with
other cities in the East as we'll as
in the West, they are making a
most creditable showing from a
business standpoint.

Seattle has three attorneys at
law, each Of whom is doing a
very lucrative business and enjoys
a practice almost wholly among
the Caucasian race. j. 2. Ball,
who confines his practice to civil
matters wholly, probably has the
most extensive business of the
three attorneys, even though he
perhaps does not realize as much
cash out of it. Mr.. Ball has been
practicing before the courts of
this state for the past five years
and has built up an enormous
civil practice, and The Republican
has been informed that he has
never yet had a single cOlOred eli
ent, though by no means averse to
them, only they do not seem to
have the kind of law business that
he practices.

j. E. Hawkins, who was admit
ted to the bar in Seattle, having
studied law at odd times while he
was conducting a barber business
in this city, has proved himself a
most excellent type of self-made
man. While he does not refuse
civil cases, his practice for the
most part is confined to criminal
work, and he has most excellent
run of such work. 1t can safely
be said that Mr.. Hawkins is sue
cessful in getting his hands on
more ready money than any law
yer in the c;ty, regardless of his
color or nationality, who would
come under his class. He has
clientage that always hunts for
Hawkins when they are in trou-
BILE, and it seems that no man can
get them out of their trouble as
readily as can Mr.. Hawkins.

Andrew r. Black is the name of
a rising young attorney that cast
his lot in Seattle a few months
ago after he had completed his
legal education in Howard Uni
versity, Washington, d. G. For
few months Mr.. Black shared
Office quarters with Mr.. Hawkins,
but he expanded so rapidly in the
legal business that he has decided
to 60 it alone, and has fitted him
self up nice quarters in the Pacific
block, where he is doing a splen-
did business for young attorney
just starting out. Mr.. Black is in
clined to civil practice, but for the
present he is taking any kind of
legal business that comes his way,
which any young attorney must
do that has just begun to make a
reputation for himself, without
money, friends or means. Mr..
Black, unlike the other two attOr-
neys, was practically a stranger in
a strange land when he started
out, but he has demonstrated that
the old adage, what man has
done, man can do" is still appli-
cable to the plucky young man.

Henderson came to Seattle and
launched out into the barber busi-
ness. He has been at it now for
nearly three years and has always
done well. Henderson is gener-
ally liked, quite popular, and
whenever he opens up d shop the
boys all come to him. He's a
friend of the railroad men and the
railroad boys get him to do their
work, hence Henderson is doing
well.

The cOlOred men of Seattle are
right thankful that Frank 7. An
dersOn decided to open a shop in
Seattle and not go East, as he
thought of doing some months
ago. Mr.. Anderson is a most ex-
cellent workman and has a splen-
did trade. He has done fairly we'll
since he begun the business, for
when he started he was compelled
to borrow money to pay his first
months rent and get other things
that were needed in the shop, but

DR.. Samuel Burdett, a retired
veterinary surgeon who for time
followed his profession in the
city, has about completely given
up the same, but still he takes
pride in subscribing "V. S." after
his signature. 1t has been learned
that DR.. Burdett was the only col
Ored man that has ever been given
a commission as veterinary sur
geOn in the United States army,
and he is quite proud of that fact.
At present DR.. Burdett is assOci-
ated with John W. Gibson in an
enterprise which has for its object
the running down of persons who
are guilty of lynching men and
especially cOlOred men.
''Ball & Sons" is the sign on a
window facing First avenue,

immediate supervision for the

ans in the business, are ready to
