SARAH BERNHARDT SCORES COL
Or PREJUDICE mus.

Oh PREJUDICE IN u. S.
The following strong and timely ar
tiele on the effect of race prejudice in
the United States, by Sarah Berphardt,
is reproduced from the Boston Globe
of recent date:
An event has just occurred in St.
Louis which has filed me with satisfae-
ton, because 1 think that the ostracism
in which the blacks are held by the
whites is odious.
A COlored woman who is the presi-
dent of a Colored woman's club,
wished to 60 into the Hotel K in
order to take part in the women IS suf-
frage conference; but the proprietor
energetically refused to admit the
black woman.
She thereupon appealed to all the
suffragettes in her club, and 500 white
suffragettes joining them, they de-
manded that the owner of the hotel
should admit the black woman.
Sufragettes Stand Up for Their
Principles
One must approve the conduct of
those suffragettes. They have shown
that all women are bound together by
common interests. They have demon
strated that their doctrines are sup
ported by their actions. 1t is said that
the president of this club of ColOred
women is a very intelligent woman.
Extraordinary for Nation to Wish to
Exclude an Active Race.
It is, however, extraordinary that
in a new republic of a quite young
nation one should wish to exclude an
entire race.
White American Women Ferociously
Color Prejudiced.
I am united in friendship with inter
esting women who are good, gentle and
kind; yet who become ferocious when
any one mentions the Negro race. In
deed, this hatred is so great among
many society women that the force of
its luminosity will affect the Colored
race to the third and fourth genera
ton.
Case Of Daughter Of the "'Black
Venus Of France.
Ny niece Saryta, now dead, wished
to open a house for fashionable wear
in New York, and asked me to help
her. 1 gave her 100000 francs. She
made all her purchases in Paris, and
engaged as her assistant a very pretty
young woman, whose mother used to
be known in Paris by the name of
'EThe Black Venus"
She was not black, but her dark
complexion was very accentuated. 1t
was known that her great-grandmOther
was the Countess de Delva, a superb
Colored woman who had married a
White settler in Jamaica.
But this young woman who had been
selected by my niece to assist her did
not resemble in the least Negro, but
it appears that Americans never mis-
take certain signs.
Noticed Color by Finger Nails ana
Refused 70 Buy Hats.
Ny niece opened q magnificent apart
ment, full Of Paris hats. People came
in crowds on the opening day, but my
niece noticed that the women whis-
pered together while pointing to her
associate, Madam de Ia Piedra- She
wanted to know what was the matter.
Then one of the young American girls,
who was a friend of ours, came up to
Saryta and said: "YOur associate has
Negro blood In her. I see it by her
finger nails. Nobody viii come back
to you"
And in, effect, no one returned IN
less it was my niece, who was back
in Paris two months after her depar-
ture from it.
