Is predicted by The Broad Az. made
q home run IN the FIN Ward and

Col Theodore w. Jones. who was
the head dog in the meat house while
Prof. Booker 7. Washington was in
town, exclaimed from the pulpit IN
Quinn Chapel that the white man
would rather go to hell than be saved
BY black man" This Is not true
for there are plenty Of white men In
the North who trust their lives and
the lives Of their loved ones In the
hands Of their colOred Doctors. Col.
Jones shuld be muzzled before he
again attempts to speak to the public
Mrs. Elizabeth NoIIs, s12s Dearborn

No, lately, and she states "that ev-
everything Is In commotion In the
Worlds Fair city, that 1t is hard for

pied by them from ten and twenty TO
seVenty-hEe and one hundred dollars

friend Of this paper and each week
after she has finished reading 1t she

and the other Democrats. for a few
silver dollars, and they urged the
small number Of readers Of the Old
Church Organ to stand by the Demo
Gratis for they were alright, but now
they are ready to cuss and damn
Democrat Of any kind. Some so
called Negro editors are ever ready
to stoop to any low trick in order to
earn one or two dollars to enable
them to buy q little cheap fighting
whisky.
Henry T. EIby, late treasurer Of Oil
vet Baptist Church, who was recently
convicted for misappropriating $4,000
belonging to the church, was on last
Saturday sentenced to the penitentiary
at Joliet, from one to ten years, by
Judge Chytraus. Jasper NJ. Higgin-
bothan was the chief witness against
Henry EIby, notwithstanding the fact
that Elby loaned him money which
If we mistake not, he has never re-
funded to him. By this time many
people have learned that there are
quite a few rascals belonging to OH
vet Baptist church.
Dr.. Anna B. Schultz is taking life
easy In the Cook County Jail. she has
nice clean quarters all by herself, and
Tailor John L. Whitman and all his as
sistants treat her with consideration.
It seems that F. L. Barnett urged Mr.
Fake to resort to every sharp practice
which Is INDUCED in around the
States Attorneys ONCE in order TO
connect DR.. Schultz with the diamond !
ring which was supposed to have been
stolen by someone from Louis Weber
and Company. Mrs. Barnett also |
seems wei pleased with the outcome |
Of her trial, for when she was in the |
jail last Saturday morning she was
asked IL she did not want to see DR.. /
Schultz" she haughtily turned mp her
pretty nose and responded no she did
not want TO see her. Several white
ladies were present and they re-
marked that from indications mrs.
Barnett was not in favor Of imparting /
a few words Of comfort or encourage
ment TO the women of her race who
happen to get into trouble or meets
with misfortune"
