Future Plans Discussed,

One question which is being discussed
informally at all meetings OF the confer
encc Is that of the segregation of whites
and blacks in the future work Of the or
Sanlzatlon Plans are now being deyel-
oped by the army leaders which, when
worked out. 1t is believed. will serve to
do much for the negro. Many of the lead
ing officers strenuously approve such an
idea. and 1T is generally believed that the
solution Will easily be found as all are
willing to give the colored man ample
opportunity to show his worth in the
work Of the army.

ANNUAL CELEBRATION.

On Friday at the car barns of the
Algiers Railway & Light Co., the fifth
anniversary of the establishment of
the electric cars on this side of the
river will be celebrated. This feature
was originally inaugurated by Major
Robley S. Stearnes, the popular super
intendent of the company, who in the
beginning saw that by bringing the
employees together once a year with a
little banquet wherein they could ex-
change views as to the good and pur-
poses of the railway company, that a
great deal of good could be accom-
plished and would encourage them to
greater efforts in cooperating with the
organization. Since the beginning of
the road many marked Improvements
have been made; the Naval Station ex-
tension has been added during the
past year, and rails have already ar
rived and the equipment of continue.
ton of the last extension to the Immi-
grafton Station. All of these improve
ments represent great deal of mones
and while it is stated that the present
Naval Station line is not a great pay.
/ ing proposition, it is believed that by
further extending the line, the rural
population will be sufficiently increas.
ed to make this also good investment
for the corporation. Several new
cars have been purchased lately, and
the ones presently in use have all
been repaired and painted under the
supervision of o. V. Verneuil, the mas.
ter mechanic of the road. Beginning,
also, on Friday, the pay-as-you-enter
system will be inaugurated. This is
also a very fine improvement, as it
lessons the liability to accidents and it
will not create any unreasonable in
convenience, as everyone by now has
been broken in to paying fare as the
car is entered. Signs are also being
printed on the car giving patrons in
structions as to the payment of the
fare, while other notices, such as
Keep your feet off the seats" do not
converse with the motorman," are con-
spicuously placed for the benefit Of the
public welfare. At the anniversary
celebration Friday the management
will give an excursion over the entire
road to the employees and their invited
guests. A nice spread has been pre-
pared and the men are looking forward
to the occasion with as much interest
as they have in the, past.

NO S. p. STRIKE.

Los Angeles, Cal, Aug. 26.-The
union employees of the Southern Paci.
fic shops who voted on the question of
a strike several days ago expressed
deep qualification Saturday when in.
formed that a conference had been ar
ranged between Vice-President Krutt-
schnitt and the head of the various
unions. The mere fact that the Harri-
man officials had consented to confer,
they declared, reduced to a minimum
the prospects of a great and costly
strike.
E. H. Misner, general organizer for
the International Machinists' Union,
said the men felt now that there would
be no strike.

THIRD DISTRICT BUILDING ASSo
CITATION.

The card Of this reliable and pro
gressive association published in this
edition, shows that it has achieved sig
nal success in its efforts to facilitate
the wageearner and those of moderate
means in the acquisition of home and
accommodating savings fund.
Our plan is framed to enable the
home-buyer to attain to absolute own
ership in a briefer period than under
other methods, consequently at a great.
ly reduced cost for interest. 1t en-.
courages and stimulates the borrower
to use all his spare means toward the
reduction of the loan. This is accom-
plished by applying all stock payments
to the cancellation of the shares rs
soon as the par value of $4,000 is re-
corded on the pass-book, when the in
terest ceases on that amount. This
continues until the total number of
shares borrowed on are cancelled, and
the loan extinguished.
A feature that appeals to those de-
string to accumulate savings fund,
or safely invest stated sum already
in their possession, is the privilege Of
making advanced or proponents to
any amount on their stock, leaving it
optional as to future payments; more
elastic system than the ordinary paid
up stock. The same cash dividend of
seven per cent. per annum is appor-
toned, which may be withdrawn or
left to be semi-annually compounded.
AS a clean-cut, easily understood,
safe and sane business proposition, the
plan of this association has no superior
being thought out to advantage its
individually and collectively.
The secretary will gladly furnish all
interested persons with our pamphlet,
which explains the plan in detail.

NEW CLUB ORGANIZED.

Much interest is being taken in the
organization of a new athletic club in
Algiers by young men ranging from 16
years up, the first meeting was held
at the residence of J. w. Morrison. 2O7
Delaronde street, and Mr.. Turner Nor
rison, who is one of the principal or,
ganizers, was greatly pleased with the
meeting and also the attendance, as
already the club consists of thirty-siX
members, and it is expected that the
membership will be increased to fifty
strong before the first regular meet
ing, which is to be held on September
Sth, 1911, at the same residence.
The club has rented the building
where formerly the Algiers Laundry
was located, corner Pelican avenue and
Bouny street, and very shortly carpen-
tiers and all other mechanics necessary
will commence work fitting this large
place up for a gymnasium.
The principal reason that this club
is being organized is to keep the young
boys from hanging out at street cor
ners, barrooms and poolrooms and all
other places where they are subject
to temptation and bad habits.
AS soon as the gym. is completed
the building will be put at the disposal
of the members daily and it is expect
ed that by next summer the club will
be able to put out as good a bunch of
athletes as can be found in the state.
They will then divide into baseball
teams, football and indoor baseball,
basket ball, and track teams. They
will then prepare to enter all of the
meets.
1t is the clubs main desire to get
several of the business men of Algiers
interested in the matter; this is one
thing that our district is in need of.
All young men who are DESTROYS of
joining will please consult any of the
members, or be present at the next
meeting. officers for the club were
elected as follows: II. Palmer, presi,
dent; S. c. Clement, vice-president;
w. R. Durand, secretary, and G. F.
