THE COLORED WOMAN'S
BURDEN.

While in Keokuk, Mrs. Isaac I.
Hills addressed the colored moth
ers' club which was formed some
time ago.
Don't feel proud when a white
boy comes home from school arm
IN arm with your boy; remember
that only an onery white boy will
20 that and the white boys Of best
influence will not do it; teach
your boys to find their associates
among their own color, and the
best boys of that color. Don't be
ambitious for your sons to become
doctors and lawyers, but teach
them to do good work in their
own sphere-a sphere which may
change in time but not in their
generation"
The above is an extract of Mrs.
Hills address as it appeared in a
little paper called the Standard.
This brief extract is, if true as
she uttered it, indeed misleading
and very weak statement COM
ing from Mrs. Hills. IN the
first place Mrs. Hills, you are
not very patriotic or loyal to our
flag, which says that there is no
class, caste, or clans in America,
but all are born free, equal and
endowed with the same inalien-
able rights. You should teach
those boys that it is not badge
of disrespect to 60 home arm in
arm with any of their school
mates, so long as those boys are
honest, good, and have pure
character, that should be the test
and not color. Then again Mrs.
Hills, you are mistaken when
you say that only the onery boys
go arm aud arm with the eolored
boy. It is not true. We can
name you many instances where
the best boys of the schools and
colleges have shared the social
hospitality oftheir colored chums.
We have known Senators, Con-
gressmen aud Governors sons to
do this. The very idea of not
taching our boys to be ambitious,
to enter the higher professions;
but to work in their own sphere.
What is their sphere? Who Or
dained it? We know no sphere
for the colored boy any more then
for the white boy. The only
sphere we know is the one God
has given to all alike. We are
indeed surprise to read such an
article from you.

MODlSu SPRING MILLINERY

More interesting than that of anv
other season is the millinery of SPRING
says The Dellneator for April, "While
some OF the shapes are of the picture
type, the preference is perhaps for the
small toque or turban and the Cont
MENTAL in its various notifications
Oval and square crowns are both in
favor, and quite the newest idea is the
ob'ong crown having a deep crease
from the front to the back. The brim
OF this hat is rolled at the sides and is
melon or oval snapsd. This design is
pleasingly carried out in the new pli
be straw, while it is seen even in
tulle and lace wit- long plume sweep
ing aroung the crown and fastened
near the frond with an ornament or
rosette.
"Smooth straw brads are extensive
ly used in the smart Spring hats, and
chip and Milan are perhaps in higher
favor. Lace Milan braids are seen IN
dressy headgear, and they are adapted
to the artistic shapes in vogue Among
til modish colo1s are blue, brown,
butter ecru, champagne and green.
Brown and green are associated in
some of the most attractive examples
milliners art
"Plumes OF cog feathers are much
used, and they are in all the fashionable
colors, as we'll as in shaded effects, and
in white. Quilts are in favor, too, aid
two will be attached to the
rolled edge of a bat brim by knot of
fastened by eockade or
buckle, Shaded effects are most popu.
lar. Breasts are q modish trimming
on hats for ordinary wear, and when
with the new soft and beuti-
fully colored ribbon, they are most
effective.

had but few acquaintances here
except Mrs. Ira Jones of 3l8 3rd

Mrs. Jones did everything in
her power to relieve the dying
woman's sufferiag. A few days
before her death she told her
friend that for years she had car-
ried insurance in the Metropoli-

able to pay the dues. She asked
to have the policy transferred to
Mrs. Jones, making her promise
to keep it up and after her death
use the money on little girl.
The remains will be sent back
to Alabama for interment, accord
ing to request of the deceased;
