Neither Tillman, Vardaman nor

our race so much as can few men
wrapped in black skins, but wanting in

Mrs. L. A. Davis, 32e6 Prairie avenue
who is one Of The many warm lady adj
mirers of The Broad AK. has been for
the past two weeks confined to her ele-
CANT new home from the effcts of very
severe cold. but it is pleasing to announce
that she is slowly regaining her health
The earthquake which visited San
Francisco and other sections of the
Pacific slope this week is the greatest
in extent which has so far occurred
in the history of the world. Many
thousand people have lost their lives,
ether thousands have been rendered
homeless, and millions upon millions
worth of property destroyed
In addition to the four Afro-Amcri-
cans assigned to type-setting machines
in the Government Printing Office Pub
lie Printer Shilling has appointed about
ten colored men as caster operators.
They have charge of the spools of per
forated paper from the keyboard oDcr-
ators, and through some intricate p-o-
cess cast the same into type. The men
are giving satisfaction.-EN.
Ex-Alderman Fred Hart. 5loS Aber-
deem street: Il want TO say that lately
| have~been so absorbed with my buSi-
ness affairs that | have not had time 10
read The Broad AK. brit Mrs. Hart never
fails TO read it each Saturday. Then It
is read by the colored woman who works
for us. And after doing so she sends il
South to some of her friends. So you
see that we are doing our share in order
to keep The Broad AK in circulation.
From all appearances something will
be doing at Springfield next winter, for
Colonel Edward H. Morris seems to be
willing 10 sacrifice the income of his
great law practice and run the risk of
being unable to collect his rents from his
numerous fiat buildings, in order TO
make the race for the legislature in the
First District. And some of his friends
say-those who can always touch him
for a large bundle of money-"that
there is nothing to it." that he will be
the main cock of the walk. When the
roll is called in the legislature halls at
the State capital.
