melody of their cheerful, charm

pretty, smiling, happy faces

beautifully decorated with flow

bunches of holly, lilies, roses,
pinks and geraninms infusing a
sweet aroma, salubrious and
bracing. "Children's Day" was
printed IL large letters at the
North end of the church and
"Welcome to All" at the South

We were told when we came here to-

was a great religious convention at
which men Of a certain denomination,

from the ends OF the earth. 1t was a

There were some white ministers at

Rev. NJ. C. Hartzell, pastor of the
South Park Av., NJ. e. Church, covered
himself over with glory in his short
and sensible talk to the vast throng
OF people who warmly greeted him as
he rose to pour out his words Of elo-
quence, he related how he had journ-
led to the South in the early years Of
his manhood. and that the first money
he ever made In his life he earned By
teaching school among the Colored
people in that section Of the country,
that he can never forget how eager
the old Colored men and women were
to drink in little learning, that many
OF those old people would walk for
many miles in order to attend school
with the children.
Among other things Rev. HartzeIl
said that the men in the North who
make the eagle scream. for the pur-
pose Of electing bad Republicans to
ONCE. and the men in the South who
play upon the race question for the
purpose OF electing bad Democrats to
once. are the very worst enemies In

about this Peace Meeting, the result

dorse DR.. E. ]. Fishers remarks as
printed in the news of last Monday
evening. We are to loyal to our peo-
pie; We think too much of the dig
nifty and the character that the Negro
has built up for himself.
That nbery loving patriot William
Dillon, brother of John Dillon, the
world renowned advocate of Home
Rule for dear Old Ireland, who is at
the present time a member of the
British Parliament, formulated and

were adopted by a rising vote: Re
solved. That this meeting desires TO
express its satisfaction that the ef-
fort of Senator Tillman to light the
fame of race animosity in this city
has so signally failed, and to stigma
tie the action of those who brought
Mr.. Tillman here as mischievous and
Cncalled for, and which action, but
for the self-restraint displayed by the
Colored people of Chicago, might have
led to disastrous results.
Resolved. Further. that, We thus
publicly thank Mayor Dunno for his
noble stand in refusing to preside at
such a meeting
