Two Prominent Characters Gone.

Two Prominent Characters Gone.
Death claimed two prominent char.

well-known in this city. One was
DR.. c. Gowdy, of Henderson, KY,
young man reared and educated here,
who was the son of that great hero of
fire fighting fame, Capt. Chas. Gowdy,
who lost his life in that memorable
fire of the early nineties. DR.. Gowdy

He labored with the diseases of 9TH
ers until the grim reaper cut him
down.
The other character was Mr.. Thorn

est pressmen in the city He had
worked at the trade in some of the
largest white offices in the city. For
the last twelve years he was associa-
ted with the National Baptist Publish

liked by all who knew him. He was

should emulate. The Christian edu-
cation of the Negro youth will be left
more and more as time goes by to the
Negroes themselves.

is estimated that from this indus
try alone the wageearners are being
paid each week in round numbers
not less than $4,000 of this amount
it would be fair estimate to say that
the Negroes receive at least $4,000.
The question is what do they do
with it and are the masses really
benefited substantially? How
many of them are buying home or
improving the one they have, what
about starting bank account? If
their earnings were applied as above,
then we would see many changes in
the surrounding, conditions Of affairs,
and the general uplift of the moral,
social, intellectual, and business of
the Negroes of our city.
But as it seems the majority of
them are only feeders for dives and

Above all things, do not buy an in

A brooder house is needed for even

Do not give eggs to an early broody

of the year, are rather changeable.

Mayor Thompson has received q
reply to the letter he recently sent
TO the Massillon tSone & Fire Brick
Co., asking whether the concern was
prepared to furnish the city a million
brick. more or less, under its contract
with the city. Up TO July 20, the COM
pany had furnished only $4,000 brick,
although its brick has shown up well
in all the tests and costs less than
some that has made a uniformly poor
showing.
The company does not answer the
mayors question directly. 1t says:

many brick as are ordered up TO q
