The same conditions largely prevail
among the COlored people in Chicago,
as is evidenced among them in Wash

death rate is very high here also. and
from now henceforth all who are op-
posed to improving the sanitary con-
dition OF thes houses and street
where the great majority of the Col

and talks on health and how to keep
well, which have been sent forth by
the National Association for the
Study and Prevention of Tuberculo-
sis, with their headquarters at los
E 22nd street. New York City. N. Y.
In appreciation Of our efforts in
that direction, DR.. Livingston Far
rand, secretary Of the executive COM
mittee Of the association. forwarded
us a letter the past week thanking
US and praising The Broad Az for the
great work it is accomplishing along
the lines indicated.

ninth and Slxty-thlrd.
Property owners along State street
from Thirty-ninth to Sixty-third
street are up in arms against the de
lays attendant upon the paving OF
that thoroughfare.-
At a meeting held at 1900 State
street Tuesday evening, strong objec.
tons were voiced against the attitude
of the board Of local improvements
on the subject and action was taken
to bring about a pressure for reform.
A committee Of twenty-five property
owners was appointed to keep con-
slant watch over the matter and 20
take necessary steps before the board
and the County court
John Burns. who is in business at
Thirty-ninth and State streets, pre-
sided over this meeting, which was
attended by 200 thoroughly aroused
property owners and business men.
They declared that State street was
a mud hole in the winter time and a
desert of Sahara in the summer.

the meeting, and it's outcome was the

guided property. owners.
The delegation also called On the
members of the board Of local improve

with the paving of State street from

pressed over the fact that certain

false pretenses and now are respon- |

Il was visited by lawyers, who

1t is a burning disgrace to Chica-

YOUNG PEOPLE WE'D
 UNOsTENTAT|OUSLY
Mir. and Mrs. William Coleman Rogers Will Leave Tuesday For New York on Their Honeymoon Trip.

William Coleman Rogers and Miss Emma C. Stoffel were married We'd nesday evening by Rev. L. Williams, at the home of Mir and Mrs. M. A. Dickson, TT North First street. w. P. Stoffel, a cousin of the bride, per- formed the office of best man and Mrs. Dickson served as maid of hon. or. MT. Dickson officiating in all managerial functions After the wedding a pleasing dinner was served down town at which the parties named and Mir. and Mrs. Joseph Green were guests.
 The young people who have been contemplating matrimony for some time. and who had at first intended celebrating their wedding at the home of the groom's family in New York on May 5, at the conclusion of a cross continent trip, changed their minds and decided to make the east ern visit a wedding tour instead of a pre-nuptial journey. This change of plan gave rise in the mind of re- porter. to a story of romance that blossomed forth in an afternoon pub lication, as a secret wedding, a sur prise to society, etc. No public fes- tivity had ever been planned, no par ticular secrecy was ever sought and had the information been applied for at the proper sources, it would have been correctly given. The young peo- ple did not conceive that their move ments were of particular public con- cern, in view of the fact that no local celebration of the event had been announced, so when they decided to wed at once they did so without an- nouncement, or appreciation that there was anything particularly TO- mantle or unusual in the incident.
 It is the purpose of MT. and Mrs Rogers to leave next Tuesday for the east. They will stop in Chicago to meet the mother of Mrs. Rogers and will then proceed to New York City, the former home of Mir. Rogers and the present home of his relatives. After visit of perhaps a month they
