upon finding that nature had endow-
ed him to the extent that man was to
be inspired by his voice he entered
the Illinois Conservatory of Music, in
which institution he received every en-
couragement.
Professor Stewart afterward enter
ed the Conservatory of Music in Chi
cago, from which he graduated with
special honors. Sir DR.. Wooten of
Leipzig, Germany, while in the United
States became interested in Professor
Stewart, and for a number of months
the professor took lessons from this
noted musician in piano, theory and
vocal culture, the same subjects he
had at his alma mater.
Having a deep interest In Scriptural
research work, Professor Stewart took
a special theological training in Payne
seminary and at Wilberforce univer-
sity. After being a private teacher Of
music in Illinois for some time, he &C.
cepted position as professor Of mu-
sic in Wilberforce university.
He taught at Wilberforce for four
years and succeeded in bringing the
music department Of the university up
to a high standard.
President Dudley of the Agricultural
and Mechanical college. of which Pro-
fessor Stewart is the head of the mu-
sic department, says he is a man of
unusual ability and this fact Is being
demonstrated in his work.
Several piano and vocal compositions
have been written by this young mu-
sician which have been favorably re-
ceived by music lovers in various Sec
tions of the country. As musical d.
rector he has had a widening success.
But his strong fort is that of concert
pianist and director. AS bassoist he
has few equals and his superior Is yet

COURT OF APPEALS MAY
SETTLE SCHOOL CASE.
Stephen Wall, Whose Child Was Dis
eriminated Against, Continues Fight.

The father Of Isabel Wall, little
eight-year-old girl of Washington, de-
clares that in case he loses his suit In
the court of appeals of the District of
Columbia to have his child admitted
to the white schools he will take the
matter to the United States supreme
court
Little Isabel Wall is the daughter Of
Stephen Wall, an employee Of the gov
ernment printing office. A year ago
she was dismissed from the Brookland
public school on the ground that she
was Negro. The principal of the
school who ordered her withdra wal
was sustained by the superintendent
of schools. This action was afterward
approved by the board of education.
Then it was that the father Of the
child took the matter to court and
filed petition for writ of manda-
mus to compel the board Of education
to admit the child to the Brookland
school,
The case delayed until the board Of
education could fix the racial status Of
the child. The board by a vote Of 8 to
. decided that for school purposes"
the Wall child is a Negro. 1t was
again brought before the court. and
the judge handed down his decision
establishing the racial status Of the
child as Negro.
The case was then taken to the
court of appeals Of the District Of Co
lumbia, where 1t was argued quite re-
Gently. The decision Of the judges is
awaited with much interest.

Of the season among our people in

Mechanics have progressed so far in
the work Of remodeling the large store
front of Gundry & Gray Co. that the
same has taken on decidedly modern
and attractive appearance. The grand
image of the noble mastiff which has
ornamented the front of the stable es-
Establishment for more than a third Of a
century, has been replaced beautifully
and appropriately RECALLED with paint
by the skillful firm of Weidenfeller
Brothers. When completed the remod-
eIed front will not only bear witness to
the progressive spirit of the firm of
Gundry e. Gray Co. but will enhance
the attractiveness of our city's business
section. The contract for the job was
taken by Mr.. l.. Gibbons who, with his
competent force, is entitled to much
credit for the way the undertaking has
been mastered.

The telephone girl sits in her chair
and listens to voices everywhere. She
hears all the gossip, she hears all the
news; she knows who is happy and who
has the blues; she knows all our sor-
rows, she knows our joys; she knows
every girl who is chasing the boys.
She knows our troubles, she knows our
strife, she knows every man who is
mean to his wife; she knows every time
we are out with the boys, she knows
the excuse each man employs, she
knows every man who is inclined to be
fast, in fact there is a secret under
meath each curl Of that quite demure
looking telephone girl. If the telephone
girl should tell all she knows it would
turn all her friends into bitter foes; she
would SOW a small wind that would
soon he a gale, engulf us in trouble and
land us in Jail. She could tell foglh her
story (which gaining in force would
cause all our wives TO sue for divorce.
She would have all our churches mixed
up in fight, and turn all our days into
sorrowing night. In fact she could
keep the whole town in a stew If she d
tell but a tenth she knew. Now doesn' t
il make your head whirl when you think
what you owe the telephone girl TX.

dent because he realized his inability to
longer continue in his beloved work.
wherein there were opportunities which
he was unable to grasp. During his
short residence in Minneapolis he sup
piled many churches and made many
friends. Mr.. and Mrs. Kent had moved

Friday he had severe fall which
proved fatal. He was unconscious all
night and died Saturday morning at

friends in attendance. After a short

veyed to the chapel at Lakewood Gene
