coLoREo MEN WIN OUT.

The local colored union of building
laborers has for several years had no
affiliation with the building trades
council. AS a consequence of the
struggles always going on for suprem
acy in the labor world this council not
long since was able to dictate to the
various trades concerned in building.
The lack of affiliation between it and
the colored laborers deprived the lat
ter of opportunity of working on jobs
the council controlled. such as the
new postoffice. for instance. Now a
change has come. The colored union
has gone into the council and de-
prived the white hod carriers, who
formed a union to take advantage of
their former position. of the one en-
cuse they had for existence. Con-
tractors have always hired and pre-
ferred the colored men because of
their superior skill and are now able
to make that preference count. AL
ready the colored men have the post
office work and are making their
white competitors lose place after
place.

TWO KINDS OF THEATRES.

1t has remained for a new business
in the Five Points neighborhood to
draw the color line. Recently there
has been opened at 2oth and Welton
streets a sc moving picture show.
Presuming that it would do as has the
other business of the same kind, it
has been patronized to some extent.
The surprise of colored people can
well be judged, therefore. when now
they are greeted with a sign that spe-
cial seats have been reserved for
them. This is in startling contrast to
the treatment colored people receive
at the old theatre, the Crescent, To-
Gated at 9th and Welton. The pro-
prietor there. Mr.. Durkin. says that he
has never had any trouble or incon-
venience because of his cOlOred pa
irons and that they are entirely well
come at all times. In conduct they
are on a par with the white public,
and have always returned to him in
full measure the cordial good treat
ment he has offered them.

ELks HAVE EASTER AFFAIR.

The usual pleasures OF evening
were forgotten for one night and ev-
eryone went to East Turner hall.
where the antlered herd were giving
the great Easter entertainment, on
Monday The capacious hall was well
filled and the dancers, arrayed in the
latest spring finery, had such joy
GUS time as only the Elks know how
to purvey. Different from other such
events. the members of the order were
and cane. Like signals they stood
around the hall guiding the way of the
pleasure seeking traveller to his des-
tination. The refreshments were pre-
pared suitable to the occasion, green
and white. Ample decorations made
the hall distinctive for the occasion
JaSkson's orchestra played. There is
something about Easter after Lenten
seventies that makes the heart leap
to pleasure, and the Joy of the dance
was unrestrained. For the pleasure
of the dancers there was provided a
real Elk program. 1t was done in
purple and black, the purple edging
the program throughout. The same
idea was carried out in the advertis
ing placards. They were similarly
treated, only on the corners instead
of the edges.
There is something different about
Elk affairs and this one was no eXcep
ton.
The Elks set a new record in the
sale of punch. an aggregate of $50 be
ing disposed of. Mrs. Richard Frazier
