going that standing room was at a
premium. The exercises of the even
ing were opened by singing Nearer
My God TO Thee" by the entire school.
Edmonia Guidry gave the address of
welcome. This was followed by songs,
declarations and recitations. A
prize was to have been given TO the
pupil who was best in defamation,
but the judges were unable to decide
between Edmonia Guidry and Pearley
Johnston, so the prize, which was to
have been coin, was divided between
them. Perhaps the most pleasing
number of the evening was the song
by Walter Cheatam and Mrs. Ida
Guidry. The work of the evening in
dicated, in d measure, the good work
that is being done in the colored
school here.

Vice-president of the Pressed Steel Car
Company, died at his home here last night,
following a brief illness He was sixty
three years old.
Several years ago Mr.. Friend figured
prominently in a suit brought against him
and Frank n. Hoffstet by Mrs. William c.
lutte, widow of a wealthy coal operator.
for possession of her husbands estate
which she alleged had been wrongfully
taken from him. Shortly after the suit
was entered deposition which Mrs Cassie
Chadwick. the dethroned queen OF
finance who was then in prison. had made
concerning her dealings with Mr.. Friend
was made public. 1t was said that she had
knowledge of the business transactions of
lutte and Friend.
Mrs. Chadwick in the deposition alleged
that she had received nearly ssOo000 from
Mr.. Friend She also said ex-Judge Francis
j. Wing, formerly her lawyer, came to the
penitentiary and threatened her. Ex-Judge
Wing admitted that he had visited Mrs
Chadwick and had talked with her about
MIR. Friend. He declared that Mrs. Chad
wick had demanded of Mr.. Friend $4,000
as the price of her silence. and that she
had made this demand of him as attorney
OF Mr.. Friend. Mr.. Friend refused to COM
municate with Mrs. Chadwick after this
and as a result the deposition became
public

them couple of instrumental pieces from
