Fearing that the advent of warm
weather will make the presence of eX-
Senator o. J. Willett, quarantined le-
per, dangerous to their community,
the people of Albertson have appealed
to the commissioners of Mineral coun-
ty for removal of the man.
THE commissioners have decided
to place Mr.. Willett on a farm about
three miles from Albertson, but this
place is not ready until late in the
summer, and the citizens Of the town
where the afflicted man now lives are
afraid that flies will spread the ter
rible disease among them.
"A committee of five women de-
manded of the commissioners that
Willett will be removed at once and

TO TALK TO coLoREp FOLKS.

After the plan of extension work be-
ing followed in Lincoln High, the Kan
sas City Negro school, J. S. Moten,
principal Douglas colored school, this
city, has arranged for a series of Sun
day Afternoon meetings of colored
school children and the colored people
of the town, in general, for the next
six or eight Sundays, at each of which
some prominent professional or bust
ness man of Pleasant Hill will speak,
the idea being to bring the colored
children and their elders into closer
touch with and better understanding
of the ways and wherefores of bust
ness and the professions. The prin-
cipal points out that his pupils get
plenty of study and school work and
the older ones, as we'll as the young,
are quite consistent in their attend
ance at church services. But they do
not get sufficiently into touch with
the everyday activities about them,
hence Mems commendable enterprise
in behalf of those of his race.
The first of the meetings will he at
the Second Baptist church next Sun
day afternoon, 4 to 5 o'clock, at which
time the Rev. McSkimming has prom
ised to speak. Mr.. McSkimming will
be introduced by H. H. Schaeperkoet-
ter, superintendent of schools. 9th
ers who have promised to give brief
talks upon succeeding occasions are
G. R. Chamberlin, E. B. Pearce, Archie
Mahaffey, principal of Central High
and DR.. H. NJ. Grant, the latter to talk
on Home Sanitation"
