Hulings Siegel (Nodie): I do not hesitate to make plain to you that the above is just what the Afro-American is to us. He is our younger brother, and as such we are bound not alone by the law of reciprocity to see that he has every educational advantage, but by the law of family and home ties. "Wisdom is justified of her children.—Matt. 11:19. "There is he that knows and knows that he knows; he is wise; follow him." This I know to be the Afro-American's attitude as regards the white race, and they are following us as closely as their disadvantages will permit. "There is he that knows not and knows that he knows not; he is willing; to teach him." This is the attitude of the colored race in the United States. How affectionately they adhere to the old party simply because Mr. Lincoln presided in that party at the time of their release from bondage; and many of them today respect the republican party because it is reputed to be composed of the moneyed class, and they are caught by the glamor of wealth, and they do well! I would say to them to vote the workingman's party ticket—the socialist ticket, but hesitate to do so because the working white man is so antagonistic to the colored man, and I will not see him insulted more than he has already been. But let me tell you, my white brother, if you ever win as socialists you will have to use a little common sense and exhibit it toward your colored brother. If you ever win their votes it will be done through decent usage in everyday affairs, and by that means you may get near enough to him to teach him your ideas on the political question. He is a born plutocrat by virtue of his early tutoring and his object lessons gained then from the white race are going to fade not readily. The Afro-American today is your equal intellectually and physically, and will listen to reason if you will lay aside your ignorant prejudices long enough to make a friend of him. His vote is not to be despised even now. You are making a terrible mistake not to take him into your labor unions and all other unions of public worth where your interests are centered. You will have it to do sooner or later if you win; better be- gin now while there is yet time and cultivate good will toward him and co-organize with him. It is time! From numerical status of the negro: "Those who have predicted that the negro race, because of essential inferiority, would ultimately die out as a result of unprotected contact with the vices of the white civilization, will not find their theories supported by the returns of the census of 1900. From the figures at hand it seems that the negro population of the United States was then a little over 9,000,000. The ratio that the negro bore to the total was 11.9." Because of the prejudice against him through the South by the white laboring class his children being deprived of the opportunity of working in the mills, are attending school while the white children are at work. We have told him that he must educate and he is doing so. The few examples already set before him of what nature in his own race are abundant proofs of what education will do for all: i. e., Booker T. W. Washington, M. A., president of Tuskogee Institute, honored by a degree by Yale; Blanche K. Bruce, formerly United States senator from Mississippi; Judge W. Lyons, register of the treasury, Washington, D. C.; W. P. Cheatham, recorder of deeds for the District of Columbia, and a number of others not necessary to mention. Suffice to say these are standing witnesses of what education and education alone will do for them, when without it they are worse than slaves, for to be enslaved to one's own ignorance is to be enslaved indeed. The stigma of slavery with which the white working class in the South its is seeking to cover him is losing its grimp. By the time this class struggle between labor and capital is settled the negro will be ready to take his place among us socially as well as materially. Then who shall say him nay? Not you, my laboring brother, for his intelligence will have exceeded yours by virtue of his education, which you and your children are neglecting. Not you, my brother of finances, for through his love and forbearance will you have gained what ease will be left you. Not you, my clerical brother, for not a negro among them but is sustained by a greater abundance of spirituality, real love, than any have received at your hands. His native love and whole hearted affection has sustained him until now and he owes us no such debt as we do him, and Omnipotence is seeing to it that he be paid back every farthing. "A word to the wise is sufficient." "A BENEDICTION ON CHRIST- MASTIDE." By Nora E. Hulings Siegel (Nodie). Angel of kindness! builted thy fane! And violent thy fond, true heart! We bow in surveillance at thy trea- sure-trow shrine, Where cheerfulness worships apart! The green Christmas-Yule we still bear with joy! And may its rights never snuff out! And Kris Kingle burdened with sweet-meat and toy, E'er find wide chimneys about! Angel of kindness! than maturgist rare! Return? O return ever more? And blaze the yule-log at dear Christ- mas-tide. And find hearts the same as of yore? Angel of brightness! transmute thy quaint gist To regimes in ages to come? Hold up to their vision thy demul- cent tryst And love as of Christ's in the home. MARRIAGE AT POCATELLO, IDA. "Two hearts with but a single thought." This was demonstrated last Sunday night, when Mr. W. M. Ellison and Miss Annie Jones, who were united in the holy bonds of matrimony. Mr. Ellison is from Springfield, Mo., and has been out West about five years. He has proved himself to be a straightforward, upright gentleman, and has won for himself many friends, among both white and colored, who wish him a successful and happy voyage upon the ocean of life. Miss Jones came here about a year and a half ago with her parents, from Kansas City, Mo. She has proved herself to be one of the choicest flowers of the garden, and Mr. Ellison is to be complimented upon his success. May the pathway of their life be ever strewn with honey-succes of love, and may their home be a heaven of rest, is the wish of the New Age.

Items of Interest of a Miscellaneous Nature Gathered During the Past Week—New Districts Brought to the Front—Many Mining Accidents and Personals. The 1901 report of the United States geological survey shows that for the calendar year in round numbers the value of the gold product was $78,000,000, and of the silver product was $71,000,000 as money (coining value), and $33,000,000 as metal (commercial value). As metals, then, gold and silver products were valued at a little less than $112,000,000; as money they were worth $150,000,000. BRITISH COLUMBIA. An engine has been ordered in Spokane to deepen the shaft on the Waterloo. Good reports are being received from the Mohican property in the Lardeau district in British Columbia. Several men are at work and stocks of provisions are being sent in. Tom Conley and associates have leased the Canadian King mine at Erle, B. C. An incline shaft has been sunk to about 288 feet and the aggregate of 600 feet of development work has been done. The Centre Star mine at Rosebud, has solved the problem of treating the low grade ores of that camp and Manager Edmond B. Kirby states that a trial mill will, in all probabilities, be built this winter to perfect the process. The North Star mine in British Columbia will probably pay no more dividends for the coming year. At the present time about $300,000 have been paid in dividends from the mine, nearly $60,000 of which have been distributed during the last year. The silver lead mine owners of British Columbia passed a resolution urging the enactment of a tariff act for the protection of the producers of lead. The tariff proposed is $1½ cents per pound on lead ores, 2½ cents per pound on lead in bullion, pigs, bars and old lead. MISCELLANEOUS MINING NEWS Work has been resumed on the Walter Scott property near Northport. It had been idle for two months. The famous Morning mine of the Coeur d'Alene district has resumed operations with a full crew of men. Importations of manufacturers of iron and steel are larger this year than at any time during the past decade. All sorts of people are flocking into The owners of the Summit and Silver Hill properties at Keller recently received a cash offer of $30,000 for the two groups. the northern part of Mexico seeking investments in mines, cattle, timber. Fifteen men will be employed at the Yogo Sapphire mines all winter, preparing the material for next summer's work. The concentration plant being erected by the California company in the Cable Grove district of Oregon is nearly completed. The Homestake property in Evans Creek district, nine miles from Grant's Pass, Ore., has been bonded to an eastern syndicate for $8000. Saltese, Mont., expects a boom very soon now. The construction of a smelter has been started. A force of men is excavating for the foundation. The Banner and Bangle Mining company of Troy, Mont., has bonded its claims for one year to Larson & Greenough. The ores are silver, lead and zinc. It is stated on what appears to be good authority that the Chico mine, in Republic camp, is soon to resume work and start shipping ore to the Granby smelter. The Calumet & Hecla company of Michigan, has just completed an immense plant and from now on all the water used in the steam plant will pass through filters. The Big Horn group of mining claims in the Cracker Creek district of Oregon was purchased recently. There are four claims in the property and the consideration was $7000. The force in the big tunnel on the Buckhorn property on Copper mountain, near Bolster, Wash., has been laid off on account of bad air. An air plant will shortly be installed. A tunnel has been run 20 feet into the hill on the Growler claim at Republic. The vein is reported to be about four feet wide and carries values of $19 in copper, gold and silver. The new 20-stamp mill of the Greenback mine of Graves Creek district in Oregon is now completed and the property has added to the number of men employed and work is going on very satisfactorily. George E. Roberts, the director in the mint, in his annual report says that the coinage mints at Philadelphia, New Orleans and San Francisco were in operation throughout the fiscal year. The first payment has been made on 1000 acres of placer ground on upper Libby creek by the Libby Placer company. Aa option was given to the new company a year ago for $100,000 for three years, payable in yearly installments. The Tacoma Smelting company is defendant in a $20,000 damage suit brought by Mrs. Catherine Maughlin in the superior court at Tacoma. Mrs. McLaughlin sues for the death of her husband, who fell down an elevator shaft. lands and mercantile business, some with money and some with nothing but their gall. Recently the initial steps of some very large mining deals have been taken on mines at Parral, which, if consummated, will mean still greater activity in that locality. By a decision of the supreme court the Boston & Montana Copper and Silver Mining company is given complete ownership of the one-fourth interest in the Comanche mine, at Butto, claimed by Adolph Wetzstein. The lower court declared the company to hold a legal title in the property. Robert Neill, the Tyson mining man, has started work on his placer properties in the Tyson district and will work steadily as long as the weather and supply of water permits. The suit over the claims has been settled in favor of Neill, and now the claims will be worked steadily. The mines of the Parral district, Mexico, were first operated about 300 years ago and are credited with a production of $60,000,000 and upwards, mainly in silver. The deepest mine has only reached 1,000 feet, and all those over 500 feet in depth have been sunk in the last dozen years. A. C. Morrison, a prominent mining man of the Hump country, predicts that the Hogan property on Crooked river, near Elk City, Idaho, will be one of the greatest mines in the world. Twenty stamps have been pounded on the ore during the past season and it is proposed to install 100 more. It is claimed by a Milwaukee chemist is that he has discovered a process to treat sulphide and telluride ores at an extremely low cost and a high saving to contents. He is not ready that Umatilla and Morrow counties to give his discovery to the world yet, but hopes to be able to do so in a very short time. "The ores in the Siegel creek district, near Elk City, Idaho, are improving with depth," said J. D. Boyer, who is operating extensively in that district, and who was in Spokane recently. "The ores are mostly free and are not becoming base with depth. In the deepest workings of the district they are found to be as free as on the surface." SOUTH AMERICAN GOVERNMENTS ARE WITH HER. Newspapers Are Expressing Themselves Freely on the Different Disputes—Bolivia a Sympathizer—Brazil Indifferent—Peru Against Collective Action. New York, Dec. 18.—In reply to dispatches addressed to its correspondents in the most prominent South American republics asking for the position of each government in the Venezuelan situation, the Associated Press has received the following replies: San Salvador, Salvador.—The newspapers here are urging the South American republics to support Venezuela, but the government of Salvador is not likely to take any action. Buenos Ayres, Argentina.—The government of Argentina officially denies the reports that it contemplates intervention in the dispute between Venezuela and the allied powers. The newspapers are protesting against the action of the fleets of the allies. 一 La Paz, Bolivia.—While the Bolivian government is not prepared to take any steps to assist Venezuela in the present crisis, the newspapers of Bolivia express themselves in favor of joint action on the part of all the republics of South America in support of Venezuela against the allied powers. Rio Janeiro, Brazil.—The Brazilian government is absolutely indifferent in regard to the Venezuelan troubles. High officials and prominent men here do not sympathize with President Castro. Up to the time of sending out these dispatches, the reply of Nicaragua had not been received. Lima, Peru.—The newspapers of Peru are in favor of collective action in support of Venezuela by all the South American republics. The Peruvian government, however, is not disposed to take any action in the matter. Panama, Colombia.-On account of his having helped the Colombian republic revolutionists, President Castro of Venezuela has no friends in the Colombian government. Big Boston Fire Boston.—Fire in the Hathaway building, at No. 208-218 Sumner street, did damage to the extent of $150,000. The building is occupied principally by bookbinding and wool dealing firms. A thick party wall saved the wool dealers, who occupy the front half of the building. Logan, the Ball Player, Found. Ashland, Ore.-B. N. Logan, the young baseball player from Siskiyou, Cal., who while hunting in the wild mountain regions of the Umpqua in southern Oregon, disappeared from camp and was lost for two weeks, has been found by a searching party. Thre eCents on S. F. & N. St. Paul, Minn.—A Great Northern official is authority for the information that the 3 cent rate on the Spokane Falls & Northern, in Washington state, will go into effect about March 30, next. Some people would be regular talking machines only the latter run down HIUAKO INDIANS ON WARPATH A SPECIAL FROM DAWSON SAYS EXCITEMENT IS KEEN. Stores Robbed and Burned and Men Killed—Little Salmon Indians Said to be Panic Stricken—Major Cuth- bert Near Scene of Action—200 Indians in Hostile Party. Seattle, Wash.—A special from Dawson, says: Keen excitement and apprehension prevail at White Horse and various points along the line of the new government trail over the report that a band of Hiuako Indians has taken the warpath in the region between the Little Salmon and Pelly rivers. A store is reported to have been looted and burned, the storekeeper killed and another man badly wounded. The Little Salmon Indians are said to be panic stricken over the outbreak of the hostile tribe and to be sending their squaws and children to the police detachment at Tantalus, near the Yukon crossing, for protection. Major Cuthbert has been fully apprised of the reports by wire. He has issued an order mobilizing the men at his command, and in case a confirmation of the news of the outbreak is received, he will leave here for Selkirk immediately with 50 men. It is stated that from 200 to 250 Indians are in the hostile party, headed by two well known chiefs. At last accounts they were holding a war dance and working themselves into a murderous frenzy. Trouble with the Indians in the region between the Little Salmon and the Pelly has been expected for a long time. Many of them are known to be of a treacherous, revengeful nature. A motive for the outbreak is furnished by the hanging of three of their number in 1899 for the murder of a prospector on the Little Salmon. The execution took place in Dawson at the local barracks. While Major Cuthbert is rather reticent as regards the details of the trouble, it is known that the first news of the reported uprising and murder reached here yesterday morning from White Horse. A wire was received from Captain Horrigan stating that word had been received there of the outbreak. The Little Salmon Indians are reported as placing so much credence in the statements received from the Selkirk Indians that they are preparing to move. If the murderous band makes an appearance they will head for the police post at Tantalus with their squaws and children. The looting of the store and the murder are supposed to have occurred on November 30 or December 1 and the first report did not reach the woodchopper near Mackey's until last Friday. From all that can be learned the Indian from whom he received the story is regarded as honest and reliable. Commerce of the Philippines Washington.—The bureau of insular affairs of the war department has issued the following comparative summary of the commerce of the Philippine islands for the seven months ending July 31, 1902, and 1901. The total value of merchandise, exclusive of gold and silver, imported during the seven months ended July 31, 1902, was $19,310,437, as against $17,122,205 for the same period of 1901. The principal increase in 1902 was in food stuffs, the purchase of rice alone exceeding the figures for 1901 by nearly $1,500,000. Gold and silver were imported during the seven months of 1902 to the value of $3,026,747; same period of 1901, $1,230,294. The value of imports coming from the United States in 1902 was $2,333,889, a gain of approximately $500,000 as compared with 1901. Agricultural industries throughout the archipelago have been materially affected owing to the unfortunate destruction of the work cattle by an epidemic of rinderpest. Rockefeller Gave a Million: Chicago.—President Harper of the University of Chicago at the convocation exercises announced the gift by John D. Rockefeller of another million dollars to that institution. Gifts from other sources also were announced, swelling the total of donations to $1,526,000. President Harper advocated the pensioning of retired professors and officers of the university, but said that the details of the plan would have to be considered further before any steps in that direction could be taken. Noted Indian Warrior Dead. Athena, Ore.—Pahacroho, once a mighty Cayuse warrior and the slayer of Chief Egan of the Shoshones in the famous Bannock Indian war, was found dead on the Umatilla Indian reservation, several miles from here, having probably fallen from his cayuse in a drunken stupor and died of exposure some time during the previous night. The remains of Pahacroho, or Five Crows, as he was known in English, were interred today at the agency. Claus Lempke Suicides Wallula, Wash.—Word reached here of the suicide by hanging of Claus Lempke, a well to do farmer living in the south Cold Springs country, Lempke is supposed to have temporarily deranged through despondency. He was only 30 years old. As a rule its a high flyer who goes on a lark. THE LEMPKE SUICIDES Both Followed Out the Same Plan of Destruction. Pendleton, Ore., Dec. 18.—In precisely the same manner as Claus Lempke killed himself last Saturday, Chris Lempke, an elder brother of Saturday's suicide, hanged himself to a rafter in an outbuilding Tuesday afternoon. The twin suicides of the two brothers, happening nearly simultaneously, in exactly the same manner, present a curious study in psychic phenomena. Claus Lempke, aged 30, a wealthy rancher of South Cold Springs, in northern Umatilla county, hanged himself Saturday through despondency. Chris Lempke, aged 23, a wealthy rancher of Warren, in northern Umatilla county, hanged himself Tuesday through despondency. Both men were found by their wives, who went to the barns to search for them through alarm at long continued absence. Both were discovered dead, were in the same position, had used the same means of execution and had been dead about the same length of time when found. No more deadly parallel was ever drawn. Neither man gave any inkling of his intention to his wife. Each went quietly to the barn, fastened a rope to a rafter and a noose around his neck and then jumped off a box. Chris Lempke, the suicide of today, was worth $12,000. He was prominent among the ranchers of the wheat belt along the "high line" of the Washington & Columbia River railroad. His destruction is the more surprising because of his well known gentility and light heartedness. His suicide was as sudden and unexpected as it was shocking. Claus Lempke was buried at Warren station, and his brother Chris attended the funeral. The details of Claus' self destruction seemed to have fixed themselves so unalterably in Chris' mind that he could not restrain himself from imitating the act in all particulars. The psychic phenomenon is said by physicians not to be uncommon and to be due to powerful auto suggestion. The dead rancher was married, his wife and two children living on the farm. He had dwelt in Umatilla 15 years. Both brothers were German born. No inquest will be held. Debated Venezuelan Question. London, Dec. 17.—The house was crowded when the Venezuelan matter came up for debate. Mr. Schwann, after expressing surprise that the government was anxious for another war after the South Africa war, complained of the paucity of information concerning the Venezuelan situation which has been given to parliament. He said he hoped arbitration would be accepted, because, although President Roosevelt is anxious to act correctly, the situation is full of danger and the president's hands might be forced by politicians. Lord Cranborne spoke after Mr. Schwann. He reproached the member with a desire to discredit the government and explained that the papers in the Venezuelan matter were very voluminous, and that those issues today were only a summary. He said that Great Britain had to perform police duty among the nations and had to prevent Venezuela from breaking the law of nations. The United States took the sensible view that Great Britain's insistence that Venezuela should meet her engagements was not an infraction of the Monroe doctrine. "No country has been more anxious than Great Britain," said Lord Cranborne, "to assist the American government in maintaining that doctrine." This remark was greeted with cheers. Term of the President.

MRS. U. S. GRANT IS DEAD NORTH COAST LIMITED SHE DIED OF HEART FAILURE AT WASHINGTON, D. C. Death Came Peacefully—Only One of Her Children Present—Her Sons Hasten Home—Mrs. Grant's Remains Will be Deposited in a Tomb in New York City. Washington.—Mrs. Ulysses S Grant died at her residence in this city. Death was due to heart failure, Mrs. Grant having suffered for years from valvular disease of the heart, which was aggravated by a severe attack of bronchitis. Her age prevented her rallying from the attacks. Her daughter, Nellie Grant Sartoris, was the only one of her children with her at the time of her death, her three sons, who had been summoned here, all being out of the city. There were also present at the bedside when the end came Miss Rosemary Sartoris, a granddaughter; Dr. Bishop, one of the attending physicians, and two trained nurses. Death MRS. JULIA DENT GRANT. consciousness practically to the end. Word has come from Jesse and U. S. Grant, Jr., two of the sons in California, that they have started on their way to Washington. The other son, General Fred Grant, is in Texas, and he will hasten here as soon as he receives a message telling him of his mother's death. The remains of Mrs. Grant will be deposited in the tomb at Riverside park, New York city, where those of her husband now repose. Whether they will be taken there immediately or this ceremony not performed for a time, can not be ascertained tonight. Mrs. Grant's Career. Mrs. Grant, whose maiden name was Julia Dent, was born in St. Louis, in 1826, and was the daughter of Frederick and Ellen Wrenshall Dent. She was married to General (then Captain) Grant in 1848. During the civil war Mrs. Grant was with the general most of the time and remained as near as possible to him when he was campaigning. She saw her husband twice inaugurated as president and accompanied him on his journey around the world. As mistress of the White House she gave liberally to all the charitable institutions of the city. Four children were born to Mr. and Mrs. Grant, three sons and one daughter, all of whom are living. Miss Nellie, the daughter, who became the wife of Algernon Sartoris in 1874, has lived in Washington with her mother for several years. Frederick Dent Grant, the oldest son, is in the army, and two other sons, Jesse and Ulysses Simpson, live at San Diego, Cal. During recent years since General Grant's death Mrs. Grant has spent most of her winters in this city, living at 2111 Q street, while during the summer she usually lived at Saratoga, Manchester-by-the-Sea and other popular resorts, until the last two summers, when she resided with her daughter, Mrs. Sartoris, at Coburg, Canada. She also made several visits to her sons in California during the last few years. She was of domestic temperament and devoted most of her time to her home and children. She cared little for society and always avoided public notice as much as possible. Her devotion to her husband was remarkable, and during the latter's unsuccessful years before the civil war and when his fortune was swept away shortly before his death, Mrs. Grant always bore herself bravely and was an inspiration to him. For several years Mrs. Grant had been so feeble that it was impossible to accept social engagements. She suffered from rheumatism and was compelled to walk with a cane or with the assistance of an attendant. She was 76 years of age at the time of her death. She Acted a Man 24 Years Buffalo, N. Y.—During a recent night the emergency hospital ambulance was called to Michigan street to pick up what appeared to be a laboring man whose leg had been broken. On the operating table, it was found the patient, who gave the name of Harry Newman, was a woman. She said she was 32 years old and had passed as boy and man since she was 8 years old. She was married to a woman 10 years ago, and the couple separated only recently. She has worked as a cook in restaurants here for 15 years.

Each of the presidents was to receive $2500 and good positions as mine foremen and each of the 10 men was to get from $100 to $200.

Jibbs—What an outrage! Why don't you shoot the infernal beast! He may be rabid. Anyhow, it is a duty you owe to society, and the dog's owner ought to be pros— "But it was your own dog!" "Oh! Ah—er, why, old man, he was probably playing with you and bit deeper than he intended! He's such a playful dog!" Folled Again. Hunted and harried to his last stand, the desperate bandit pours shot after shot into the intrepid posse that has surrounded him. Seeing that escape is out of the question, he mutters: "At least the historical novelist of the future shall have no opportunity to marry me off in the last chapter to one of those impossible heroines." So saying, with a last yell of defiance, he places the pistol to his head and pulls the trigger. A Real Joke.

A Dying Patient Recovers Through the Interposition of a Humble Source Chicago, Nov. 15. Some weeks ago Dr. G., a very reputable and widely-known physician, lived on C—street, was called to attend a very complicated case of Rheumatism. Upon arriving at the house he found a man about 40 years of age, lying in a prostrated and serious condition, with the painful disease. He prescribed for the patient, but the man continued to grow worse, and on Sunday evening he was found to be in a very alarming condition. The knees and elbows and larger joints were greatly inflamed, and could not be moved. It was only with extreme difficulty that the patient could be turned in bed, with the aid of three or four persons. The weight of the clothing was so painful that means had to be adopted to keep it from the patient's body. The doctor saw that his assistance would be of no avail, and left the house, the members of the family following him to the door, weeping. Almost immediately the grief stricken ones were addressed by an humble German. He had heard of the despair of the family, and now asked them to try his remedy, and accordingly brought forth a bottle of St. Jacobs Oil. The poor wife applied this remedy. The first application eased the patient very much; after a few hours they used it again, and wonder of wonders, the pain vanished entirely! Every subsequent application improved the patient, and in two days he was well and out. When the doctor called a few days after, he was indeed surprised. A Slight Confusion. "I suppose you made it a point not to miss the Campanile when you were abroad last usmmer?" "Oh, yes," answered Mr. Cumrox, uneasily conscious that his wife's eye was cn him. "Mrs. C. and I always make it a point not to miss any of the great opera singers." "Billingsley has taught his dog to sing." "And does he sing well?" "He sings as well as Billingsley could teach him." "I never heard Billingsley. Is he a good singer?" "Well, the dog has been shot at seven times." Adam was lucky in another way. He had no friends to come around telling him how he ought to bring up his boys. The intemperate florist finds no sale for his whisky blossoms. Long Hair "About a year ago my hair was coming out very fast, so I bought a bottle of Ayer's Hair Vigor.

He also slipped from a roof, while fixing a stove pipe and hurt his leg. Mr. J. R. Jackson, of Salt Lake, was in the city this week, taking items for the Plain Dealer.

Miss Ida Nelson commenced this week to take a series of skating lessons under the instruction of Professors Davis and Jacobs, and it is reported that she is learning rapidly. The Ice flew up and struck her once or twice but did no serious damage. The condition of Mrs. W, A. Clark Jr. has taken a favorable change, which is a great relief to their faithful valet, Mr. Webb, who has been regular at his past from early morn until late at night, eagerly looking forward to the time that a favorable change might take place, which would lift the gloom of sadness from the household. The New Age wishes her a speedy recovery. The Afro-American Women's club met last Tuesday afternoon with Mrs. Jacobs on Idaho street.

Bullett's. ELKS KNOW HOW TO DO 1T. Their smoker last Wednesday night was one of the events in social history of the Smoky City. One of the best things ever given in Butte was the smoker given last Wednesday night, this was the verdict unanimously of 15 or 20 gentlemen, who attended the smoker given by the boys, who intend to become members of Elkdom. The informal programme that was rendered was the exchanging of ideas telling stories and the drinkink of Elk's milk and using the proverbial phrase hitting the pipe, intermingled with a snack, consisting of rye bread and winnie-worst. Duets, solos, recitations and mandolin selections succeeded each other in pleasant variety until one wondered what means of entertainment had been forgotten in the long list. Prof. H. C. Parsons, the special deputy, read some literature pertaining to the workings of the order and the benefits derived from being a member of such an order. Mr. S. Reeves was selected as chairman and filled the exalted position with credit. SUCH A DISPLAY OF BEAUTY RARELY EVER SEEN.

Athletics at Basin Picking Up—Indications Point to Several Lively Bouts Before the Winter Season Is Over. Basin, Mont., Dec. 13.—What proved to be one of the hottest boxing exhibitions ever contested in the roped arena took place here tonight under the auspices of the Basin Athletic club, between H. F. Jackson, the "Detroit Cyclone," and Robert Thompson, the "Salt Lake Kid," whose defeat at the hands of the colored cyclone was entirely decisive. The "Kid" was outclassed from the start, though he showed considerable cleverness, but was unable to withstand the fierce onslaught of Jackson, and the Salt Lake boy was knocked out cleanly in the sixth round. As a matter of fact, Thompson was knocked out twice during the six rounds and was saved only by the stroke of the gong. To the surprise of all Jackson landed when and where he pleased and when he landed his hard left and right swings the "Kid" would wince and was repeatedly forced to the ropes and resorted to clinches in order to save himself from a knockout. D, W, CRUM APPOINTED COLLEC TOR AT CHARLESTON_ Whashington, Dec. 16.—While no official announcement has been made it is understood the president has decided to appoint Dr. D. W. Crum, the colored applicant, as collector at Charleston, S. C. Investigation of Dr. Crum has been made by the president, and it is stated that they have been found unwarranted. DEATH RELIEF FOR PAIN. W. A. Washington Succumbs To His Injuries, W. A. Washington died at St. Ann's hospital last Sunday morning at about 10 o'clock from injuries sustained by striking against an iron pillar at the Washoe smelter. Washington was riding on a compressed air locomotive at the time of the accident. He was employed as an unloader of the cars of the compressed air line. He was riding in the cab of an engine and while leaning out of the cab window, struck against an iron pillar close to the track. He was violently wrenched from his seat in the cab. As quickly as possible the injured man was conveyed to St. Ann's hospital where it was at once discovered that his death would only be a question of time. An attempt was made to perform an operation on him, but in his weakened condition the physicians decided that he could never survive the shock. His back was dislocated and he also sustained a pelvic fracture by reason of the accident. He was injured internally as well. The body was taken to the Tuttle undertaking rooms. Coroner Joseph Hughes stated Sunday evening that an inquest would be held over the remains at 10 o'clock Sunday morning. Washington was a married man and resided with his wife on West Commercial avenue. He came to Anaconda from Butte only a few weeks ago. His funeral took place Wednesday. The New Age extends sympathy to the surviving family. TO ESTABLISH A NEGRO COLONY By Associated Press. New York, Dec. 19.—It is likely that the war department will take up the question of colonization in Hawaii and the Philippines and tentative efforts will be made to secure headway for an emigration movement for the negro race, says a Washington special to the Times. The agitation of late of the question of negro representation in public affairs in the South has suggested the THE NEW AGE consideration of the old idea of race colonization and experimental encouragement will be given to such a movement if it appears. The fact that the efforts of colonization in Africa during the last 40 years have failed practically does not preclude a possible success with such a movement in some of the new island possessions. The debate on Senator Burton's amendment to the immigration bill proposing boned importation of Chinese into Hawaii for use on sugar plantations, brought for the statement that the islanders do not like negro labor there, as if it is not suited to the conditions. The negro has had too long a taste of independence, and is not as docile and abject as the coolie. There is also the apprehension of race troubles if the colored people of the South should go to Hawaii in large numbers. They have citizenship under the legislation of the United States, whatever their political condition might be under the state constitutions. The Chinese do not possess the boon of citizenship and are not likely to have it conferred on them. At present the islands are a white man's country, and coolie labor, it is said, is exactly what the white man wants in his business. There will, therefore, be opposition to applying the colonization idea to Hawaii. As to the Philippines, the case is different. That is not a white man's country, and some say it never will be. The colored soldiers who have served there seem to like the climate, and are liked by the natives. Negro labor with American capital would, it is believed, make a success of our occupation of the islands. At any rate, the subject is to be taken up and studied by experts in ethnology and economics. As a first step toward opening up this inquiry, Secretary Root has appointed T. Thomas Fortune, a New York colored republican, as a special commissioner to go to the Philippines and undertake a study of conditions and opportunities for colonization there of the colored people of the United States so far as they are willing to avail themselves of the chances for homes in a new country.
