spices of THE APPEAL at Arcanum

st. Paul, Tuesday, September 80, are
about completed.
The program which is now all COM
pleted, includes the reading of Lin
coins Emancipation Proclamation;
addresses by Mayor Herbert P. Keller,
Attorneys w. r. Morris, w. T. Francis
and ]. Louis Erwin; the principal ad-
dress will be made by the Attorney

take place and the supper will be
served and the devotees Of terpsichore
be allowed to enjoy themselves.
Miss Frances Willard McCray, the
leading elocutionist of Grand Forks,
N. D., will give a number
1t is hoped the people generally will
obtain their tickets from the patrons,
full list of whom may be found be-
low, so that there will be no delay
about entering the hall. The manage
ment reserves the right to refuse to
admit any and all persons whose pres
ence will be undesirable, and it is
hoped that no such persons will pre-
sent themselves at the hall and they
will thus be spared the humiliation
of being refused admission. A hint to
the wise is sufficient
The price of the tickets is one dollar
each and no one will be admitted
without ticket. A ticket entities
the purchaser-if not an undesirable
person-to admission to the hall,
checking of wraps, supper, punch and
the privilege of the floor for the grand
promenade, without further expense
whatever.
The crowd will be large and the
hall is in the heart of the city and in
a building in which are many tenants
and the people are requested to refrain
from any undue exhibitions of exhub-
erance of spirits and enter and leave
the building with as little noise and
confusion as possible This affair,
which promises to be quite large and
select is under the management of
the committees named below:

also discovered in Minneapolis.

FRIENDS AND FELLOW CITIZENS:

Owing to the fact that the Dixie
Jubilee Singers have been engaged
for the evening of Monday, September
%, at st. James A. M. E. church
and that no change can be made in
their booking, the celebration Of the
Fiftieth Anniversary Of the Emancipa-
ton to be given under auspices Of
THE APPEAL will not occur on that
date but will take place later in the
month, perhaps the Goth. This will
give more time for the preparations
that are now under way to make the
event the biggest and best ever. Ev-
erybody get ready for the time Of
their lives.
N. B.-H you haven't sent in your
card as patron do SO NOW.
Respectfully,
J. @. Adams.

The Methodist ladies have decided
to give their lawn supper at the court

peal is made to every one to help a
cause known to be entirely worthy.
Let every one help these devoted la
dies to make a signal success of the
affair. All who can possibly do so

fact Mrs. c. Murphy of Troy planta-
ton owes the life of her trio Of Eng
lish Standard Indian Runner ducks,
for which she had paid $14. The ducks
disappeared and were seen by another
member of the family, Miss Leila Ball,
in the possession of darkey, on the
Woodville road. She was spending the
weekend and did not learn of the loss
of the ducks until her return home
She then recalled seeing them. The
negro, Jim Baldwin was sent for and
he confessed the theft. The ducks
we're traced to a purchaser in town

thefts, and it was thought good time
to Jail him.

Through a lapse Of memory, we for
got to mention one of the most appre-
ciated visits our new linotype has re-
ceived, and that was from II little girls
from Woodville, who came down Sat
urday two weeks ago, to see the water
and the machine. Mr.. George H. Argue
accompanied them to our print shop
and they seemed to be clever little
girls who could appreciate the wonder
of the almost-human type-setting ma
chine. One little girl seeing the tiny
fiecks of metal on the floor asked what
was done with all that silver.

Fortune 'Caylier, negro living in
the 10th ward, was found dead Sunday
morning about 1874 feet from the rear
of his cabin. The local magistrate, r.
s. Towles, was authorized by the cor
oner to hold an inquest, and the YER
dict, after careful inquiry, was that
death was due to heart failure. 1t was
thought suspicious because OF blood on
his head and feet, but this is said te
have come from the injury to the bach
of the head in falling. Fortune was {
very good citizen.

NOTICE.!

After this date, the publishing of
clerks notices opening an administers
ton must be paid for in advance by
the party in interest. The reason for
this is that frequently administrations
are opened and never closed, or are
opened and the closing never adver.
tised. Hence, it is difficult to keep on
the track of such notices and get them
paid.

all Saturday morning. The body was
taken to the fifth ward and the burial
services were held at Concord church
The people in town were particularly
kind to him through all his sufferings
as he had religious consolation from
the ministers, good medical care, and
numberless attentions from others.
