Hundreds of inquiries are
being made as to the treat

cans on the grounds of the A.
Y. P. Exposition. while it is
impossible to make personal
replies to all such inquiries

success and all propose to see
that every visitor is given a
square deal. There are about
200 Afro-Americans employed
on the grounds and if they are
not being accorded proper
treatment, they are keeping
quiet about it, and black folk
do not do that way very long.
Seattle does not do things by

coming to see the show Seattle
will welcome you.
How about accommodations
in the city? There will be no
more trouble about that than

Thus far we have heard none

WIT AND HUMOR

The evidence had shown that
the brick which a careless work
man had dropped from a scat
folding twenty feet above the
ground had fallen on a mans
shoulder and broken a bone, but
the jury decided that the victim
had no cause for action the fall
ing of the brick had no connec-
ton with the accident.
