MYSTERIOUS NOISES WHICH
BRIGHTEN AWAY TENANTS.

A. Matthews, who keeps a lodging
house on Fort street, and is very deaf,
called on Deputy Sheriff Jarrett this
morning ana asked mis- help to unravel
a mystery. He does not know if his
house is haunted or practical joke is
being played on him.
He does know, however, that on ac-
count of mysterious noises of a most
provoking nature his dodgers are leav-
ing him.
Although dead to ordinary sound,
when he places his head on his pillow
at night he can hear plainly an in
fernal and incessant rafting as of lit
tie iron devils playing tag through a
maze of metal pipes.
He has discovered certain mysteri-
Gus electric wires and believes that
they have been rugged up for torment
and are responsible for the headachey
sounds that drive away his tenants.
doesn't want to tamper with the
wires for fear of being electrocuted,
Jarrett will investigate.

SOME FACTS TO CONSIDER,

Iowa City, Feb. 11.-Mr. Frank P.
Chisholm, one of the travelling flnan-
cial representatives of the Tuskegee
Institute, delivered an address at the
A. M. f. church last night and it was
very practical and logical address.
After briefly outlining the work that
is being done at Tuskegee and saying
what they wanted to do in the future,
lie gave some valuable suggestions
that would be exceedingly beneficial
to our race If they would only put in
to execution the ideas given by him,
put one thing we would say to Mr..
chisholm, as a friendly suggestion,
when giving Illustrations OF things he
wishes to explain more fully to refrain
from the use of the personal pronoun
r. SO much as some people might,
thing he Is egotistical, but we believe
beyond doubt that he Is a too practi.
cal man to be vain, yet fear some of
my race may think that way. He also
said we should read more literature
and spend more time in the public II.
brary, which Is indeed a fact. Also
said to read the publications owned
and conducted by Afro-Americans, and
not be content with reading the by.
stander," as its news was not general
enough. Which is very true, yet we
are free to confess that the Bystander
is not an ideal paper, yet is has never
made any claim as national paper.
IN the first place the location is not
suitable for such publication. How
would you expect to have q national
newspaper in a state where the popu-
lation OF Afro-Americans is less THAI
10000? And ! may say there are cities
in some of the southern states where
the colored population on some two
streets Will exceed that number, and
yet they have no national or what |
would call metropolitan paper. Have
they such a paper as that in Sayan.

have read number Of papers that
