Thirty graduates of the Colored
Normal School are engaged in a
canvass of the city, with a view of
increasing the school attendance
for the ensuing year. There has
been an alarming falling off in the
enrolment of colored children of
school age in recent years, and
Assistant Superintendent r.. O..
Bruce has devised this method of
bringing in children whose parents
might not otherwise have their at
tention directed to the advantages
offered by the public schools. AS
the number of graduates of the
Normal School to receive appoint
ments as teachers has been grow
ing less and less, the young ladies
are cheerfully cooperating with
Professor Bruce in thus increasing
the attendance, with a view of Gre
ating a demand for more teachers.
Over 5000 non-attending colored

BASEBALL PITCHER ONCE
TRADED FOR A BULLDOG

Being at one time worth the price
only Of an ordinary bulldog in a base
bali sense, and being actually traded
for one to a minor league club, and
then looming up as one of the most
promising pitchers in the American
association. is the quaint experience
of Leo Sage, who twirled for Mime
apolis recently and made good
showing against Kansas City.
Leo was dug out of one Of the
amateur clubs by Joe Cantillion, when
the latter was manager of the Mil
waukee club. Leo worked in a game
or two for Milwaukee. and won but
his showing was such as to make Joe
believe that he needed more expert
ence. Cantillon found ii hard to get
any reasonable offers for the big
pitcher. and when one of his friends
in the Three-I league found this out.
he decided to take a chance in getting
Joes goat by Offering the Milwaukee
manager a bulldog for the twirlcr,
but Joe called the bluff and turned
for the canine.
Since then Leo was released to
the Oshkosh club in the Wisconsin
state league, being carried by that
club for about a year when he was
drafted by the Millers. He Is a
locomotive fireman by trade and his
homo Is in Fond du Lac.

Der Of the combine. and has now

to Mr.. Percy. is something. so far.
Mr.. Alexander has not seen fit to
explain. The fact that he jumped
on Vardaman in his speech on Mon
day and had a good deal to say
against him and nothing what
ever to say against Mr.. Percy,
caused many of his hearers to sit
up and take notice and wonder If
there isn't another alliance or
understanding between him and
Percy as intimate and binding as
their relations in the secret ballot
caucus.
This is condensed but fair sum-
mary of Mr.. Alexander's career as
a practical politician and candidate
to date. Many who heard him the
other day marveled that he did not
have one syllable to say about the
secret ballot caucus or Mr.. Percy.
Some good men, because of Mr..
Alexander's exemplary private life
and high private character, and
because he is reckoned one of the
truest prohibltionists of the State,
will at once jump to the conclusion
that because of these things, he
