Scarlet fever threatens certain

Upon her graduation, Miss Morgan
sent in her application to the school
committee of East Providence for a
position as teacher in that town. No
notice was taken of the application.
Undaunted, however, by this slight,
she went to Virginia, where she OBJ
tanned a position and also taught in
Delaware State
In 1898, Miss Morgan began a course
at the Emerson College in Boston,
Mass, at the same time taking examin-
alton for teachers in Providence In
this examination which consisted of
ten subjects, she received over 80 per
cent in six, and 100 per cent. in one.
In 1895 Miss Morgan took charge of a
school in Providence, where during
half of every day she had entire charge
of all the pupils, (white) receiving
full salary for the same; all of her
pupils with the exception of one or two
were fond of her
A year was spent at the Training
School and Miss Morgan graduated
in the first class TO receive diplomas
from the city for that work.
During the three years she taught
at Tuskegee, resigning because Of an
over-worked system, returning home
she received second grade certificate
which was issued to teachers who had

Providence, r. L., Special.-From va
rious sections of the Southland one
can, quite often read or learn OF some
young man or woman who has made
some considerable distinction as a
teacher among our people in our
schools and colleges.
Seldom, however, do we learn of
avocation to any great extent. The
reasons for this state of affairs are
obvious. First, the comparatively
small number of colored people in our
colored school with colored teachers
and secondly, the services of colored
teachers in southern sections are so
much in demand that usually when
we do train a teacher here she soon
leaves to labor among our brothers and
sisters of the South. The city of Prov
idence, however, is g striking exception
to this rule. For here in our midst,
born and reared in this second city of
New England, resides young woman
who deserves the highest praise and
greatest credit possible for the persist
ent, energetic and patient attitude
which she has assumed in her career
thus far.
Miss Ida A. Morgan, who is the
young lady in question, was born in
Providence some thirty years ago, and
from a child exhibited qualifications
which showed that she possessed the
ability which when properly nurtured
and trained would produce a dispens-
er of knowledge whose services would
be in great demand.
Her early training was acquired in
the public schools of East Providence
from whence she entered the Rhode
Island Normal School. from which the
graduated in the class of 1890, being
the third colored young woman to
graduate from that institution.

nations. She was appointed by the
evening school committee, but the ap-
pointment was vetoed by the superin-
tendent Another application was sent
in 1902, when a new superintendent
had been chosen, but like the first
was also rejected. Miss Morgan is
now conducting a private evening
school having ten pupils. She is also
pursuing an advanced course of study
in Brown University.
She is modest almost to a fault, but
withal is possessed with that energy
and determination, which justly de-
serves the highest success in her en-
deavors. We regret very much in be-
ing unable at the present time to pre-
sent the portrait of one whose actions
should be the type of emulation for
all our young people who seek true
manhood and womanhood.

CINCINNATI, o., Special.-Fortune
being able to have in our home a gal
lery of art on whose walls hang the
creations of famous artists of the past
and present, but none are so i'll fav-
ored that they cannot have a gallery
of Memory, on whose walls hang
many pictures gathered from scenes
we have witnessed, friends we have
met, and the delightful sensations we
have experienced. Among the pic
lures that hang on Memory's walls are
two that we recall: First, the mar
riage of Miss Mamie Forte and Mr.
G. w. Hays, of this city, an account of
which we sent to the New National
Era, twenty-nine years ago. Time has
not dimmed the lustre or affected the
beauty of that picture. Second, the
nuptials of their daughter, Annie Lou
Use Hays, and Mr.. Ralph Reginald
Hawkins, celebrated at the Union Bap-
tist church, of this city, November 25,
1903
For more than a week prior to the
day of the wedding, not only society in
Cincinnati, but the people generally
who have known Miss Annie Hays,
have exhibited a great interest in the
coming event. While she has been
recognized as a fayorite in social cir
cles, she has by no means devoted all
of her time in that direction. For
some years she has been an Interested
worker in the Sabbath school, the
church, and the various charitable in
stitutions of our city; and through
her connection with these organiza-
tions she has been brought into close
relation with very large number of
people, who have neither the taste nor
inclination to be known as among the

Anderson special of November
l3 10 The State:
Mayor Sullivan and the police
OF the city are going ahead with
their idea that able-bodied men
who live in Anderson should be
made TO work for d living. Yes
terday white man who has a
family at one of the cotton mills
was arranged in the mayors
court on a charge of loaling and
lolterIng on the streets, and the
mayor imposed sentence of $50
or 30 days labor on the streets.
Ihe sentence was suspended on
the condition that the man would
go to work, or stay off the streets
III the future.
1t Is said that other cases NAV
be brought against white men
whose children are at work in the
mills while they themselves are
doing nothing. Mayor Sullivan
and the police are determined to
drive the loaiers, white as we'll as
colored, from the city. Another
white man was arrested yesterday
afternoon for vagrancy and will
be given trial before the mayor
this morning.
