VANISHED NEGRO COLONY.

OF all the stories of island colonies,
perhaps the most pathetic is that of
Vache Island, the Promised Land of
the negroes. The problem which was
confronting Lincoln and many an
other earnest advocate of freedom
who saw some of the dangers and the
difficulties that were to follow, on
the heels of emancipation, was to be
solved.
One Koch owned this property, and
he persuaded the president and others
interested in colonization schemes
experiment at Vache Island would
prove that the West Indies was the
place where the negro of the southern
states could work out his own saliva
ton without fear or trembling. Con-
gress was induced to appropriate
money, and the paradise was pur-
| chased.
Thither were transported several
| hundred. of ex-slaves, who were ex-
pected to be merely the advance
| guard of an army of negroes who
would soon be self-supporting and
happy. Buoyed up by the thought
of being their own masters, and salts
fled that the climate would exactly
suit them, the negroes themselve:
were delighted with the prospect.
Their awakening came very soon
Left with altogether inadequate sup
ply of provisions, face to face witt
a new existence in which strange rep
tiles affrighted and strange insects
poisoned lacking leader, and utter
ly incapable of individual initiative
the poor people fell easy victims t.
disease. Many died from malaria
and the survivors were half starved
and in a condition of extreme debil
ity when at last a ship was sent t.
bring them back to this country.
East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1907-05-14

A premature explosion Of dyna-

killed Walking Ross Kidd. during a
quarrel. Both men had brothers
killed in the explosion Of the day be-
fore.

BUT THREE BIDS
SUBMITTED FOR
MASONIC TEMPLE

Three proposals for the construction
Of the new Masonic Temple were suo-
mitted at 1880 o'clock today to the
building committee of the Masonic Tenn
pie Association.
The opening OF the bids was deferred
until a later hour, when it was expected
that one or two other proposals would
be submitted
J. H Small. the chairman of the
Masonic Temple committee, stated that
the figures of the bidders would not
be made public at this time. and no &C
tion would be taken until after the
proposals had been submitted TO the ar
chitectural committee.
The fact that only three bids were
Submitted is due to the action of the
members OF the loyal building assOcia-
ton who refused to submit their biders
because the outsiders" were permitted
to enter inco the competition.
The Masonic Ten pie committee re-
fused to make any exception, and the
local builders. consisting Of eight firms
withdrew the bids they had submitted
about a week ago

Cided Action.

IT cannot be said that the closing OF
the week on the local Stock Exchange
was made i'm a blaze Of glory. Rather
there was a strong feeling OF relief that
the end had come and a day Of rest
would intervene before further opera
tions could be carried on. With the
exception of Capital Traction, the trans
actions hardly reached the dignity of
quotation lot, but were represented by
scattering sales of small prices that In
no way represented actual price condi-
tions.
Even in the exceptional case of Capt.
tai Traction a lot Of 100 shares vas
taken at 14i, while for a quotation lot
of twenty shares, the bid only reached
1875 In the balance OF the railway ieast
there was a decided willingness 20 let
well enough alone and not attempt 10
force matters by any display OF over
anxiety.
Amid the general depression the stock
OF the National City Bank held firm AZ
IA, and one lot was readily taken at
that figure. This was the only sale Of
bank stocks, and, while bid prices were
slightly lower. there was no pressing Of
fers 10 sell on any Of the list.
The total amount Of travelling only
reached 166 shares. which marks one Of
the smallest days OF the present year.
The bonds market also was lacking IN
enthusiastic interest
