Defeated Tennis Players Give the
Nietors an Unique Entertainment.
4 most unique junction which took
| place in this city last evening was
at thelresidenee Of Mrs. H. B. Terry.
This Was a Mexican supper which
was given by Mrs. Terry daughter,
Miss Fostef, and Mr. Crockett as a
forfeit for a match game at tennis
in which they were the losers. The
game took place in the garrison
few days ago, Miss Foster and Mr.
Crockett playing against Miss
Rentfro and Lieut.. Waterman, with
the agreement that the defeated
side should give a Mexican supper
to the victors. After due prepara-
ton, the supper was given last
night, invitations written in
Spanish having been sent to those
who were to be the guests.
The supper was served in style
entirely in accord with its name.
The large dining room looked love
", the color scheme throughout
being the national colors Of Mexico.
The walls were decorated with
Mexican flags, and hangings Of
Mexican blankets also lent their
rich, warm hues to adorn the room.
The table decorations were in har-
mony with the same idea A
handsome Mexican scarf of red,
white and green was placed diago-
nally across the table, and the centre
piece was made of red and white
flowers, with foliage. Ateach plate
was souvenir of silver in Mex
lean design Supper was served at
half past seven. All of the dishes
were Mexican, comprising the best
and most generally liked viands
known to the cuisine of Sunny
Mexico. The guests all wore full
evening dress, the handsome gowns
OF the ladies and pretty shaded
candles with which the table was
lighted adding much to the general
effect.

To THE HERALD:

liz II ERALD.
Private Edward J. Van Alstine,
Co. A. 4th Infantry, while seminal
over Prisoner Powett, took him
from the walk in front of the of
icers' quarters at about 1915 a. m,
and departed for parts unknown.
He left his gun and belt near the
wall in the rear of Co. c bar
racks, and he and Powett crossed
the ferry to Matamoros. We hope
they may remain in Mexico as it is

The collector of customs at
Brownsville has discovered that the
companies that are engaged in the
rice and irrigation enterprises here
have been employing some Mexican
laborers who live in Mexico, and
has notified the companies in writ
ing Of the fact. Such laborers will
probably have to be discharged, as
it is assumed that the alien labor
law requires it. The collector, so
THE HERALD is informed, applied
ysome time ago to the department at
Washington to have an agent sent
to Brownsville to investigate the
matter and ascertain whether the
alien labor law was being violated
here, and an agent was sent in re-
Spouse to the request. So far as.
The HERALD learns, the agent was
convinced, after investigating the
situation, that, if there were any
foreign laborers employed in this
county, the persons employing
them had done so innocently, tax
ling such laborers as presented them
Nselves without inquiring as to their
place of residence. Hence a system
of inquiring was instituted at the
ferry, whereby it was learned that

REV w. L. TAYLOR ELECTED w. c. NJ.
The Order of True Reformers, in its
hour of bereavement was unusually
fortunate in having in its ranks a man
of demonstrated capacity for work
one who could speak eloquently and
convincingly, who could organize COM
pactly and who could execute wisely
and promptly This was Rev. William
[. Taylor, known far and wide as one
of the most prominent and capable men
of the great Southland, and a powerful
divine in the Baptist denomination. He
began with the True Reformers in 1886,
leaving his duties as teacher and preach
er at Beaver Dam, Va, to accept a de-
putyship in the Grand Fountain, posi-
ton in which his influence could be
more generally felt by reason of a
widened sphere for usefulness. For ten
wears he travelled, lecturing and orga-
nizing lodges, covering fully fifteen
States, serving with credit to himself
and multiplying the resources of the
Order. In 1891 he was made vice-presi-
dent, and carried unon his shoulders
much of the responsibility that attached
to the executive head. So signal was his
success in every venture that when an
heir for the mantle of the deceased
founder must be selected the united
voice of the body was for w. L. Taylor
He assumed the duties of Acting
Worthy Grand Master at once, and in
September, 1893, he was elected perman-
ent w. C. NJ. for the four years term.

Brownies most intimate friends, and

dicate what great results can come from
an aggregation of pennies and dimes,
drawn from many sources. The strength
of the True RefOrmer Bank during the
dreadful panic of 'o3, when it loaned
money TO pay the current expenses of the
proud city of Richmond did much TO
prove the Negroes ability as inancier.
The Orders promptness in paying divi-
dends and death benefits has built up
confidence that is proof against the
whispers of any rivals. Since its forma-
ton it has paid in death benefits the
phenomenal sum of S7I437025-up-
wards of a million dollars. To illus
trate the breadth and diversity of its
operations we may say that in addition
to the enterprises already enumerated
the True ReformerS conduct a large

The scope and influence of the True
Reformers are ever on the increase. be-
cause they are founded upon strictly
business principles From chief execu-
live to the humbleS member, industry
md economy are the watchwords. With
he continuance of such energetic work
as has been done by Worthy Grand
Master Taylor and his faithful corps OF
assistants. it is safe to predict that the
membership will not be long in reaching
the one hundred thousand mark This
organization is in the foremost rank OF
those that are solving the race problem
in the right way.
