"The VaIkyrie of the Piano.

Teresa Carreno was an extraordinary
artist, and the appellation commonly
linked with her name failed to do JUS
tice to the softer, gentler, more ind
mate aspects of her art. She was one
Of the few musical artists Of South
America who have satisfied the criti.
cal standards OF Europe and the Unit
ed States, which demand a patient sub
mission to drudgery on the part OF
genius itself. Mime. Carreno, a native
Of Venezuela and composer Of the ma
tional anthem of that country, was OF
fiery mettle as artist and as woman,
and her temper was quickly modified
on occasion. But her playing was cleo
trio and inspiring and never hum
drum. Her picturesque and fiery per
sonality would have made her an out
standing figure In any gathering with
out the voice of the piano to speak for
her.-Philadelphia Ledger.

FIGHT THIS WORD.

We note that a Tennessee paper of
the Race is using the word "Negress -
in bold type, word invented by the
southern White man and applied to
our women, as the word "tigress" is
used in the animal family. Any Race
paper using such a detestable word
should be strongly condemned and no
aid of any kind given it. Such a
paper is fit only to be thrown in the
street gutter. Let us keep it out of
our homes.-R. S. Abbott, Editor of the
Worlds Greatest Weekly Newspaper.
For some years past Col. Abbott or
someone connected with it seemingly
have greatly delighted through its col
ums to refer to Colored women as
wenches and the very next time that
Col. Abbott permits that ugly and
highly insulting word to appear on the
front page Of his paper the Colored
ladies of Chicago should rake him over
the red-hot coals.-Editor.

People of the Virgin Islands.

People of the Virgin Islands.
It is said that between so and 90
per cent Of the people of the Virgin
Islands, formerly the Danish West In
dies, are pure black. The rest of them
are white. There are very few mt
lattoes, for the race line is more sharp
~ drawn than in the other islands Of
the West Indies. The islands pride
themselves on their low percentage Of
illiteracy. Only about per cent Of
the inhabitants are unable to read and
write. In spite Of their proximity
there is great difference between the
Virgin Islands and Porto Rico. The
Inhabitants Of the former are thorough
~ English in their speech and customs
while those Of Porto Rico are Spanish.
The island Of st. Thomas Is poor az
riculturally. Fishing is the chief occu-
patton, and most of the fish is con.
sumed at home. Ninety per cent Of
the population Is in the towns. Graz
ing Is the chief agricultural industry.
Five men are reported to own the en-
tire island outside of the towns.-Nev

The City Of Chicago Comes to the As
sistance of the Morgan Park Elite,
Through tt Health Department.

All of Morgan Park 8 White Aristoc-
racy came into the Superior Court of
Cook County, before Judge Joseph Sab
ath some days since and from day to
day listened to the arguments of Atty.
]. Gray Lucas for an injunction
against the above association and
other elite of that erstwhile village,
now a portion of Chicago.
Finally, at about ten O'Clock on Fri
day night the scene being set with a
hundred or more of the defendants and
their friends, with a sprinkling of its
Colored citizens interested but sub
merged by the threats of its White
people, Judge SABBATH finally indicated
in no uncertain language that it was
the Courts opinion that owners and
lessees of the "Cormac Block" were
entitled to a temporary injunction to
prevent the said best citizens from
carrying out the threats contained in
Atty. Lucas bill, viz, to bomb the
building, to assault its prospective Col
ored tenants-and in short to create
another reign of terror among its Col
ored people like unto East st. Louis.
The Morgan Park people were repre-
sented by several able lawyers who
claimed that the building was unten-
antable for Colored people, though it
had been perfectly o. K. for Whites
for twenty years and was then occu-
pied by them.
His Honor Judge SABBATH called up
to the bar all the defendants named in
the bill for the injunction and to their
surprise and CONSERVATION enjoined
them each and all against interfering
with the building or its prospective
tenants. Several Colored families are
now in the building.
The Morgan Park Business Mems
Association then got busy with the
Health Dept. of Chicago and secured
a letter to be written to the lessees of
the "Cormae Block" requiring them
to make large repairs and improve
ments thereon under the threat of clos
ing the building and also secured the !
assistance of Judge J. J. Sullivan and
enjoined the lessees from placing any
more Colored tenants in the building
until the city's orders are complied
with.
Thus the White citizens of Morgan
Park and the great City of Chicago
aforesaid, are waging battle together,
to keep Colored people from living
where White people don't care to have
them.
