 In mourning for the things that are not. as n piteous wall. nerve-racking and soul-t0rturing. the Lamentations of Jeremiah are hilarious beside it. Du- Bois Is a New England negro. So far os his skin is concerned, he could pass anywhere for an Anglo Saxon, SIS he is practically. having, however the one drop of blood in him that makes him negro. He is -erhaps the best educated and the most scholarly negro in Amer lea. and one of the greatest disturbing clements in race relationships. Born and educated in New England. in tho New England atmosphere with New England ideals and with New England money, he has been, ever since he came to maturity. sower of discontent and dIscord. For years he has been raising n constant clamor against all the efforts ;~s both races toward harmony of spirit and cooperation in the upward strug

The baton gives an angry little jerk now and then like a dogs leg twitching with pain. A coolie, more desperate than the rest, comes within range, but The sikh has eyes in the back of his head. The long, loose arm with the baton at the end swings round like catapult. and there Is nasty, dull thud. The coolie sits In the dust rub ping tobacco into a two-inch scalp wound and wondering what he has been doing since morning, Along the quay six more Sikhs reinforce ther comrade. and the crowd melts away to the gambling dens and the dice ooX'

 The glow of light from the Chinese quarter almost blinds you at first. The streets are full of lanterns, red and vel low and green and blue, and blue and green and yellow and red are some of the colors that adorn the crowd. l hear the sound of the scraping of nd dles over the way. and step over and look in At one end of the room are about twenty sailors, British and American, sitting on long bench At the other a bar with an array of beer mugs It looks like target practice Behind the bar is woman, the one white woman I have seen tonight, and her "reminiscences will run to thirty form about one foot high and five feet square. and on this two Filipinos scraping violins.

 Miss Sullivan teachers the Deisarte Method in Elocution, and while in New York her instructors were Professor Mann and Miss Vail The art of Ex- pression is becoming very popular. and is one of the most interesting features of our College.
 Industrial and Practical Branches.
 These have not been neglected. and have been fairly well represented in our institution.
 Our course of study Is as extensive as any Female College of the State, and much higher than most of them.
 Physical Culture.
 We place health above everything else, because a sound body is essential to sound active minds, and is potent and almost Indispensable factor in pleasant and successful living.
 Knowing how much pupils need these exercises all boarding pupils are re. quired to take physical culture about twice a week under direction Of trained teacher. For this a small fee of $500 per term will be charged. This is required of all boarding pupils and must be paid at beginning of term. Day pupils may also take by paying the fee Ill.,. Pupils are advised to take special ex. ercises in gymnastic work. They will | find 1t of great importance In the pre- servation of their health and strength while in College work. Special Advantages. This institution relies for patronage solely upon the superior character of the advantages offered. As it Is unen- dowed, and must be sustained by the annual income. the public may be as-

 Location Ideal.
 Tuscaloosa is pictureSquely s1tuateo in the midst of hills which obstruct the course of the Black Warrior River. The intersection of three important railroads the A. G. S, M. & O. and W.. S, with sixteen daily passenger trains, makes this city easily accessible to all sections of the country. We are nifty six miles west of Birmingham; ninety seven miles east of Meridian; sixty miles south of Columbus. and one hum dred and seven miles north of Mont gomery
 This is a beautiful town, and its To- cation largely exempts 1t from ma> larial diseases and epidemics. It's winters are mild and genial. while the heat of summer is tempered by the shade of the giant oaks which abound on every street.
 Its churches. representing the diff ferent religious denominations, are ministers noted for their piety, learn ] ing and eloQuence.
 It is the seat of the University or Alabama, which, together with the Colleges and academies, has made the town noted for its educational advan- : | tages. This Is d city Of morality and refinement. most desirable location for an institution of learning.

 The city has splendid system of waterworks, and the College buildings are supplied throughout with a abund- ance of water. The College has bath rooms with hot and cold water, electric lights and bells, telephones and other conveniences.

 the daughters of MT. Hemphill now
 teach in this institution.
 In 1876 the school had declined. as
 all schools do in time. then appeared
 Mir. Alonzo Hill, a man with strong
 mind and fine executive ability, who
 purchased the property and by his un-
 tiring energy and perseverance raised it to rank among the first institutions
 of our Southland. For seventeen and
 a half years he gave 1t his undivided
 attention. Suddenly In the middle or
 the session MT. Hill was taken away,
 and the next year the property was was purchased by the North Alabama Con ference and Rev. J. D. Simpson was made President Dr. Simpson held the position for two or three years. and was beloved by every one. When he 1 retired, Dr. W. F. Melton was made President and ran the College sue

 it fell into. the hands of the present administration, whose sole aim is to | make it and maintain 1t as one or the leading institutions of the State.
 The school has enjoyed q prosperous career. It would be interesting to take records of various years and see the number of pupils that have had their minds and hearts fashioned within these walls.

 The Charges. -:...
 The charges are believed to be as moderate as are made by any school board and accommodation. We are not trying to make cheap School. we have secured the best teachers'we could find, and, of course. we have to pay such teachers good salaries. We could have filled the College with teachers whose salaries would have cost us less than half what these we have employed will cost us. Rut an honest business man wants the best for his money and would rather pay little r'ore in order to get the best.
 Summer School. .>....
 There is a summer school held at the University of Alabama every year for the bentfit of those expecting to teach. This opens soon after, our session closes and continues six weeks
 Young ladies who want to take ad- vantage of this will find 1t convenient to attend the Tuscaloosa Female Col lege and continueShere at the summer school We are onlYs few blocks from the University and have agreed to board a number of young ladies during the summer sessions.
