WILL CELEBRATE SEMI
 CENTENNIAL OF FREEDOM
Local Colony of CoIored People Plan
 Biu Celebration

The cOlOred colony of Phoenix is planning through the agency of the Forum for a big local celebration of the semi-centcnnial of freedom At the same time there will be a sim liar gathering all over the United States. The state of Pennsylvania has appropriated a large amount of money and delegates from every state in the union expect to meet with the citizens of the Keystone state in eel ebratiOn of the event. Of course it is impossible for all the former slaves or those who would be delighted to attend such a celebration to go, so the local celebration idea has taken root here as elsewhere.
 The necessary preliminary commit tees were appointed yesterday after noon at the meeting of the Phoenix Forum, the colored mutual improve mcnt organization, which met in the A. M. E. church. A further meeting will be held in the near future. The celebration comes off in October along about the nineteenth.
 The topic of discussion at the meet ing yesterday was, Race Prejudice in America" The discussion was opened by Rev. N. F. White. Rev. J. R. Rector and Rev. J. II. Hudson also spoke. In the course of the dis cussion of the topic the whole his tory of the negro in America and in tEe British possessions was brought out A number of the members also spoke.

 South Africa

When Ringing Brothers circus comes to town there will be on ex- r. .bitiOn in the nagerie the largest hippopotamus ever brought to Amer ica It reached the circus a few weeks ago and has been given a place of honor among the many othG unusual specimens of far eastern an- imal life The huge river horse was caught in British South Africa by means of pitfall-a deep trench, the mouth of which is covered by net work of moss and sticks to resemble the grassy earth. When the animal took his fatal plunge, he fought so fiercely that it required fifty natives to drag him from the dark hole and make q prisoner of him.
 The children who visit the circus will be delighted when they see the two cutest little jungle babies that ever rolled out of the thicket. To be precise however, they never saw a jungle. being captive born lions and used to city ways. They are little balls of soft fur with bright blinking e es and playful paws. Their mother, and a proud beast she is, watches over her offspring Zealously. Woe be to the VenturesOme keeper who seeks to pet those babies through the bars of the cage Mamma is jealous beast and will brook no interference in her domestic affairs.

Enormous excitement prevails.
Servia is allowing the passage of no
Bulgarian messages From this time

be observed. All houses must close
at 8 O'Clock at night"
The feeling of irritation and alarm
is becoming pronounced, the be-

her reply to the Servian note only to
gain time to dispose her troops to the
best advantage
On Sunday the Bulgarians again at

coupled with Bulgarias failure to re-

the opposition leaders to demand a
speedy settlement OF the crisis.
