IN THE GALLERY AT ST. JAMES

The able editor Of the Influential
morning news paper saw fit to write
an impressive editorial and publish it
in the issue of the Richmond, Va.
Times-Dispatch. May 9th under the
caption, "In the Gallery at ST. James"
1t is q ringing tribute to the modest
characteristics of Miss Belle Mason,
who has gone on before. We could not
resist the temptation to reproduce in
our columns this editorial comment
and give few ideas of our own upon
the subject.
We were acquainted with Miss Belle
Mason, who for the purposes Of our
comment we shall call in death, Belle
Mason and knew of her work during
period Of some thirty years. She had
the transcendent quality Of minding
her own business and OF maintaining
that admirable reserve, for which she
was noted. In passing, it might be
yell to state that we were deeply pain
ed to observe the manner in which the
thoughtless news writers upon both
of our daily papers dubbed her, can
Aged Negress."
Apparently, she was as light in COM
plexion as any white person in this
community and she would have noted
with horror had she been alive to read
the lines, the notoriety, in this respect
accorded to her. She was neither a
Negro woman in the true sense of the
word nor a negress But let that pa-e.
The Times-Dispatch says:
At the age of eigfrty-siX. Belle Mason
has died. She was not distinguished
worker for the public good; she was
not a leader in any movement; she
was not wealthy woman; she was
not an active officer of many organiZa-
tions; she was in no sense a public
figure. She, was only a pious colored
woman who lived quietly and did her
good works almost in secret, because
she was most humble believer in the
Word.
Every word of that is true. 1t con-
tinues:
For more than forty years, this sim
pie, dignified woman sat in the gallery
of st. James Episcopal Church, when
it was at Fifth and Marshall Str. cts
and after it was moved to Franklin
Street. Always alone because she had
her own pride, she took her seat on
Sundays and listened to the words OF
the rectors of the church who follow.

able southpaws. 1t is a noteworthy
fact that both major leaguers have

several years.

Detroit against the Tigers two strong
est rivals, New York and Cleveland.

players are causing net fans to sit up
and take notice in the Intercity
League here. It's the Norwood Y. NJ.
c. A. team and Gus Eckles, formerly
of Greensburg, Ind, is the coach.
The five has aroused more interest
in Norwood in an athletic way than
has been stirred up since the famous
Norwood baseball team held forth.
When Eckles took hold of the Nor
wood quintette he got positions for a
quartette Of Indiana players and they
have been burning up the hardwood
ever since.
The four are Dutch Richeson and
Pete Overman of Shelbyville, Happy
Meek Of Greensburg, and Russell Turk
Of Indianapolis. Overman is perhaps
the greatest goal thrower ever seen
sere. He is a little fellow but has an
uncanny way Of tossing in the points.
