CULPEPER, Va, July 1.-THE
erection Of shaft on the battle-
field of Gettysburg in memory of
John Tolbert of Rappahannock
county, color bearer of Company
b, 7th Virginia Infantry, during
the. civil war, was unique from the
fact that 1t was not raised by his
old comrades in arms. but by those
who were his flercest foes in that
great conflict.
This daring soldier, then a mere
boy, had the colors shot down
seven times as his command swept
forward across the field of battle,
and each and every time he re-
trieved them and kept on advanc-
ing until he was almost upon the
enemy's lines.
His life was saved because the
commander of the 25th New York
Cavalry ordered his men to cease
firing on such a brave soldier. 1t
is the survivors of the 25th New
York Cavalry who erected the
shaft to the memory of their
dauntless foe.

PARIS. July 14.-Complaints about
the attitude of the American tour
lists toward colored citizens of France
have been made to Premier Poincare
by negro deputies in the French par
lament, who propose that diplomatic
representations be made to Wash
ington as one means of satisfying
their grievances, according to infor-
nation received from trustworthy
sources.
Colored citizens of France feel that
travellers from overseas who fail to
realize the absolute equality of the
races here and the total absence of a
color line should be made to under
stand these things before leaving
home, in order not to violate French
susceptibility in this direction. Such
knowledge. they claim, can be i'm
parted only by direct action by the
American government.
Two Measures Considered.
A certain amount of satisfaction
probably will be granted to the COL
ored deputies in this matter by Pre-
mier Poincare. Two measures for
their benefit are said to be under con-
sideration; one of them is the closing
for a short time of a famous restau-
rant that declined to serve patrons
on account of objections raised by
white patrons. The other is the dis
patch of harmless note to Washing
ton explaining the point of view of
the French negroes and asking what
can be done to make American tour
lists in France more regardful of
their feelings.
