The above cut is that Of one Of the
successful candidates at the Fort Des
Moines training camp, which has just
ended, Capt. Chas. G. Kelly of Tuske-
gee Normal and Industrial Institute.
Capt. Kelly has been connected with
this great institution since 1902, and
is one of the pillars Of this wonderful
school.
When the training camp opened he
gave up the position of assistant busi-
ness agent of the institution and en-
tered earnestly into the task of be-
coming a reserve officer and as above
sated has been successful.
He was born at Paducah, KY, in
1875, and is a graduate of Sumner
high school of St. Louis, Mo.
He is highly esteemed by the off,
cials of Tuskegee institute and will
be considerably missed by this school
during his stay in the army.
We all join in wishing Capt. Kelly
a successful career in his new field.

Of Cuba. He was also assistant attor-
ney general of the state of Illinois,
appointed by Atty. Brundage. He now
has his regiment above full quota in
Chicago, where most of the compan-
les are awaiting orders from the u. S.
government. He is splendid product
Of true American and loyal to his
race.
+ Col. Denison was instrumental in
building the fine barracks known as
the Eighth Illinois armory and has
done his part in the social develop
,, ment of the colored race in Chicago
and the middl ewest.
We are sure there are even greater
! things waiting the colonel in the near
future. In the near future we may
run the cut of his entire famous
Eighth Illinois regiment

The above cut is a true likeness Of
that gallant soldier, distinguished law
yer and true American, Col. F. A.
Denison, at present the only colored
colonel in the United States of Amer
lea that is commanding a regiment
and he has the unique distinction of
commanding the famous Eighth Illi-
nois federal regiment, which is the
only colored regiment in the United
States entirely differed by Negro Of
ficers from colonel on down.
Col. Denison is a veteran of the
Spanish-American war and was on
the Mexican border last year and by
virtue Of his. legal ability and knoul-
edge was appointed by the govern
ment Of the U. S. as Judge advocate
Of the military districts Of the island

BEATING BACK.

BEATING BACK.
There's = sot on the groun',
He's an outer-an'down,
Once hearty an SCUM.
But the curse Of drink,
Gave his breath q stink,
Made his char'cter ink.
See i'm rise again,
Sick o. shame an sin
Will the fight begin?
See! he lifts him straight,
An steadies his gate
Brace up! it taint too late.
He's beating back
From the awful rack
To the main line track;
Wine, wimmen an song
Got his soul in wrong,
Sent him down headlong.
Don't take his skelp,
Nor whale whelp,
Lend hand an help;
Don't make speech,
Nor pray an preach,
Take a holt an reach.
He's headed, nec' N nec'
To his self-respec'-
Now say text.
He's goin' strong
From the ways of wrong
Whoop up with song.
He's beaten back,
Hell's bayin' pack,
They've lost his track;
You preachin' clan,
Now take han
An save a man.

a Compliment to MurieI Harrison
Thompson.
Mr.. and Mrs. N. H. Harrison gave
patriotic party in honor of their
granddaughter. Miss Muriel Harrison
Thompson, of Brooklyn, New York, on
Wednesday afternoon. Fifty children
were present who participated in the
games with much enthusiasm and inter-
est.
Miss Ruth Cunningham was fortunate
in winning the girls prize in the alpha
betical contest and Master Lucien Dent
the boys. Aguest's prize was presented
to Miss Thompson.
After the contest the children
marched into the dining-room singing
"The Star-Spangled Banner" The
decorations were flags of the allies, the
United States predominating. The SOU
venirs were miniature flags, which de-
lighted the hearts of the little ones. A
delicious ice-course was served after
which the rest of the afternoon was
spent in dancing.
Each child bade the charming hostess
a reluctant farewell and expressed their
enjoyment and pleasure in most en-
thusiastic manner.
On Tuesday morning Miss Ethel
Yates was hostess of the Needle Craft
Club.
Mrs. Murray Rogers entertained the
Fortnightly Club on Wednesday after
noon.
The Wesley Cleaners of the Methodist
Sunday School will sew every Wednes-
day at the Red Cross room.
