WEST CHESTER FORCES
SEGREGATION IN SCHOOL.

West Chester, Pa, Aug. 3d.
The School Board of Lower Ok
ford Township have aroused the
colored residents by establishing
separate school for pupils in the
village of Lincoln University, the
seat of the big colored school.
They declare that they will carry
the matter into court and have it
tested.
When the public school in the
village opened this morning, one
of the school dieectors took stand
at the door, and as the colored
children arrived he told them to go
across the street to the colored
school that had been fitted up for
them during the vacation. Some
of the colored children were accom-
panied by their parents and when
they saw that the white school was
closed to them and that they must
go to the colored school, they re-
turned home vowing that they
would have nothing to do with the
colored school.
The School Board leased a store
room of ex-Commissioner Henry
Cope and fitted it up temporarily
for the colored pupils. Miss An
ma Harris, colored graduate of
Shippensburg Normal school, has
been engaged to teach the colored
school.
The feeling among the colored
people is very bitter over the mat
ter.

OLD PEOPLE SHOULD BE YOUNG.

There is no use of those people
who are old in years to be old in
spirit and enjoyment. The writer
has seen people eighty-6ve or nine
ty years old as buoyant and lively
as they were at forty. The state
of mind has much to do with old
age. If aged persons think they
are old and useless they will be so,
otherwise if they harbor the
thought that they are yet young
and useful they will be so. A
person should be in the prime of
life at three score and ten. He
has had the experience of a life
time and better calculated to per-
form his duties than the inexper-
fenced. Gladstone, one the great
est premiers that ever lived, was
wiser at eightp-fve than at a
younger age. We learn of men
over eighty having charge of large
business institutions. --Seatte Re-

INTO EVERYTHING.

iNIo Even TIItN0s
A famous Negro, writing about
the race, notes the marked ability
Of our people to be at home" any
where under the sun. If found on
the Strand in London, he is at once
the staid and sober Englishman. If
he wanders about the boulevards of
Paris, he becomes the gay, suave
Frenchman and he can watch a
bull fight in Spain with the en-
thusiasm of a grandee. In Amer
lea the Negro possesses the shrewd-
ness of the Yankee, the fire and vi
vacity of the Southerner, and all
the live-wire hustling proclivities
of the Westerner. The Negro just
breaks in and sets out the game.
Here comes the glad tidings that
the North pole has been discovered
by Doctor Cook and Lieutenant
Commander Peary. This discovery
will possibly relieve some of the
sufferings of humanity, but we are
not concerned in that. There was
a Negro in it. He went with Peary
and probably helped nail the flag.
Mathew Henson IS District of
Columbia Negro, born August 8,
1867. He is sfive feet, ten inches
in height and weighs $50 pounds.
For the past twenty years he has
been the constant companion OF
Lieutenant Peary in all his travels.
Here again the Negrobreaks down
traditional theories. Full of tropi-
cal blood he has withstood the
vigors of the Artic winters with all
the ease of an Eskimo. This proves
Fred Douglass's s oft repeated state
ment Just leave the Negro alone"
Let him alone with mans chance
in the world and he will get there.

WHITE MEN IN LOUISIANA

New Orleans, La. Aug. 25.-
"She's my wife. We have lived
together 38 years. The law can
not estrange u.s." Thus spoke
Joseph Lawrence, a white farmer,
in the Second Criminal Court yes
terday, while he was awaiting trial
on the charge of marrying Ne
gro woman. Through the arrest
of Lawrence and his colored wife
the police discovered hard situa-
ton. All around Lee stationey the
white farmers and fishermen and
other classes have intermarried
with colored people and reared
large families, regardless of the
law against such. A number of
arrests have been made, out it has
been impossible to convict one for
the reason that the white parties
all went on the stand and swore
they were colored. Just what the
prosecuting attorney can do re.
mains to be seen.-The Picayune.

SCHOOL OPENS.

! More than forty thousand chill
dren started to school this week in
Denver. 1t is grand and inspir-
ing sight to see the thousands OF
bHght youngsters preparing for
4 y future. 1t is especially pleas
n to note the absence of race pre-
judice in the public schools. The
children of the seven thousand Ne
gro residents of Denver are lost in
the great mass Of youngsters. They
come and go throughout the school
course and feel the least possible
oppression because of color. All
courses, as well as all schools, are
open to them. Here our children
know nothing Of the condition ex-
isting in the South, in which they
are obliged to attend separate
schools because of their color. With
this condition come duties and re-
sponsibilities. The children must
be kept in school, Their dress and
personal appearance go for much.
Parents should see to it that the
little children, as well as the larger
ones, 90 to school well and warmly
clad. Their clothing should be
clean and everything about the
child should exhibit neatness and
cleanliness, even if the clothing is
cheap or old. Their hair should
be cared for each day and parents
should see to it that their little
hands and faces are clean before
flirting the children to school each
DAY.
Many Of our people are hard
working men and women, who feel
that they have not the time to do
these little things for their children
before leaving for work. But much
of what might appear to be trouble
in this connection can be obviated
by little effort. The average
child is easily taught and feeling
of pride can be soon developed.
Pride of the right sort destroys
slovenliness in person, as well as
in speech. The Negro child in the
Denver public school should be
taught in their homes that they
must excel the white pupils in
learning, in gentleness Of manners,
and all the virtues that go to make
excellent manhood and woman
A.hood. These are things to be taught
", .ildren at home. Herein lies the
tadded duty and responsibility of
the parent. The right kind OF
work among them at this time is
the sowing of seed in good ground
