Shame on Tolliver Page.

Shame on Tolliver Page.
 He shot craps; he toted a pistol and
 he, the buggy boy of Chief A. S. Ger ald. Entrusted with the responsible
 position of valet to the old roan nag.
 he has been shorn of the honors he
 wore so proudly, to the envy Of his colored compatriots.
 Tolliver Page is no longer buggy boy for the Chief. The old roan nag has a new valet. But Tolliver Page still has a semi official connection with the city of Montgomery. He has the same con nection that every prisoner of the city has who has not paid his fine. On these sunny mornings the old roan nag | stands at the curbing just outside tho chiefs office and kicks at the flies as she has always done, but Tolliver Page no longer slumbers on the buggy seat. The negroes who used to pass and envy Tolliver no longer envy him now Notwithstanding the honorable posi- ton he held in co1ored social circles.
 notwithstanding the privileges that went with his official duties Toiliver must either pay the city of Montgom- cry the sum of $50 or he must do lowly labor upon the streets like a common | negro. Even the old roan nag can not intercede for her former associate and Fafetak0T ana dItef dll SHe may cdIc 1 just as much for the new negro as she did for Tolliver. She belongs to a | fickle sex.
 Nobody suspected Toiliver of leading double life. But he has shown him. self to be the latest thing in the Dr.
 Jekyi and Mfr. Hyde line. In the day
 time he was an appendage of law and l order. subordinate representatives as it were, of the majesty of the law. Tolliver Page. 1t might be said, was close to the throne. In the day he rode by the side of the Chief, who is to the negro. the incarnation of all that is powerful. There was not in all Montgomery a more virtuous looking negro. as the roan nag ambled from
 one part of the town to another while
 his fellows envied Tolliver Page his
 good fortune.
 But Tolliver could not stand prosper
 ity. He fiirted with fortune. He dared
 the lightning. He was not all the

SHAME ON TOLLIVER PAGE,
 VALET TO THE OLD ROAN NAG

virtue that he appeared to be. The old roan nag's valet was a whited sep ulchre. When the shades of night fell, when the accepted time for doing dark deeds came those who were near Tof- liver Page in secluded spots and dark ened alleys could have heard the mys- tic words Big Dick" escape from his articulatory organs. They could have also heard the sound of "Please Joe" ring out in the night air. Likewise the voice of Tolliver Page might have jared the atmosphere with the blatant challenge, Quarter more no nine" Persons round about Toliiver Page may have heard his earnest plea, Natural, please" and the omnipresent once permeated from the mouth of the man who pops the whip over the an- cient roan and who stands for the quips of the chief suppressor of crime of the goodly city of Montgomery.
 But worse far worse than this did Toliiver Page Ido, When the roan nag had dismissed him for the night, when he had locked the food house door and shut the big gate he would slip away and hang big pistol on his person. This crap shooting is danger ous business, and when Tolliver had his money down on the floor he wanted to be prepared for trouble. He didn't propose to have any cheap nigger chase him out of an alley and away from his own money with a 75 cent razor.
 Judge of the pained surprise of the police of Montgomery when they cor ralled a crap game. to find that the virtuous valet of the roan nag was among the shooters. Judge of the shock they got when in searching the person of Tolliver Page they came across a piece of contraband artillery. slowed away on his hip
 The Recorder said $50 for the pistol. Tolliver has no $50 and as a discredit- ed. dishonored and discharged official cannot raise $50 by whistling and gaz- ing out the bars. It's a sad story.
 When Tolliver Page was such a so- ciety nigger he spelt his name "Talia- ferro." But on the police docket the callous sergeant spelt 1t in the pho- netic form, Tolliver.
 Shame on Tolliver Page!

Judge Thompson of Federal Court
 Takes it Under Advisement.
 Cincinnati, O., Nov. 27.--The case of Michael J. Kelley of the St Paul American Association Baseball club against the National Baseball Commits sion on appeal from the Supreme Court of organized baseball to the Federal courts, came up before United States Judge Thompson in this city today.
 Kelley, the player-manager Of the St. Paul club. objected to being sold or transferred to the St. Louis AmTi- can League club by Owner George Lannon of St. Paul, alleging that ne was under no contract which made such a sale permissible, and that fur ther sale was not bonafide, but was made as a blind to prevent him from entering into an. agreement to man age the Toledo American Association team.
 During the hearing it was stated that the Toledo management, which nad been offered to Kelley had to be given up because. of the action already taken in his case, but he had secured an op- tion on the Minneapolis American As- sociation club, and his attempt to over turn the commissions decision was in order that he might play ball on his club.
 The case was taken under advisement by Judge Thompson.

intelligent business man facing his eter- l nal destiny.
 l But some one may object that Moses l was not equal in intelligence to a busi- ness man of modern times. On the con trary, no man living is equal to what 1 Moses was in intelligence, for we are | told that when Moses made this de- | cision he was about 40 years old, and | learned in all the learning of the Egyp- tians. Go stand in the shadows of the pyramids of Egypt, and stand there | dumb when asked how those massive pyramids were built. But Moses knew all about it. learned in all the learning of the Egyptians Now some things in the way this intelligent business man decided may be helpful to you business men.
 He chose. He did not foolishly wait for something mysterious to compel him; he exercised his will power: he chose; he came to decision. The trou- ble with many business men is that they do not come to an earnest, positive decision about their eternal destiny. Further, Moses had respect to the re- compense of reward, and he kept the sprinkling of blood. So many intelli- gent business men of our day mix and confuse and tumble these two separate, distinct things. We are saved only by the shedding of blood, without the she'd
 
 ward comes according to our lives and service for God; hence Jesus said, I give them eternal life and they shall never perish and He said, Lay up for yourselves treasures in Heaven Grant tha tevery one of you before you die accept the Savior; you are by your delay losing all rewards for all eternity. Is it the part of sensible business man to thus throw away eternal interests?
 But Moses further took into con sideration the awe-inspiring thought of eternity. pleasures of sin for a sea son. He saw that these things would pass away. Oh, men, is it sensible for intelligent men to trine with eternity for the sake of the pleasures of times?
 Then Moses as an intelligent man did not try to blind himself to the issue. He saw that he was turning away from pleasures. You hear preachers some time saying, There are no pleasures in sin That is pulpit soft talk. Moses saw that there were pleasures that he was turning from. But he was an hon. est ,open, can1id business man. He did not play the b1oy and whine There is no harm in it.
