Carney, who, as color aergeant of the 54th Massachusetts volunteers in the Civil war, saved his flag at Fort Wagner after he had been wounded, died at the city hospital in Boston last week of injuries received in an elevator accident Sergeant Carney was messenger at the office of the secretary of state He was crushed by an elevator at the state house on November 25th. His regiment, the 54th Massachusetts, was the one which was composed of colored men and commanded by Colonel Robert Gould Shaw Carney was at the side of Colonel Shaw when that commander fell, and was afterwards badly wounded. As he crawled off the battlefield he held the flag aloft until comrades came to his assistance and he greeted them with the words, "The old flag never touched the ground." The flags upon the state house in Boston were lowered on Friday in honor of a messenger, and he a black man, William L. Carney, who was one of the color bearers of the 54th regiment of volunteers in the Civil War, and performed an act of splen did heroism during the famous assault upon Fort Wagner, S C, in 1863. The man to whom the state paid honor as a president, an expresident, a governor, an ex governor or a United States senator, had received the congressional medal of honor bestowed only in recognition of signal courage and devotion. Certainly Sergeant Carney had a right to take particular satisfaction in the Colonel Shaw memorial by Saint Gaudens, which he daily passed in going to his humble work at the state house. The deed which won him honor at his funeral beyond precedent in this state is narrated by N. P. Hallowell, who at the request of Governor Andrew, accepted the colonelcy of the 54th Massachusetts, the second colored regiment from this state. Colonel Hallowell writes in the Boston Transcript:— "A very gallant man has passed away, the victim of an elevator accident at the state house. Sergeant William H. Carney was one of the color bearers of the 54th regiment, Massachusetts volunteers, when the famous assault upon Fort Wagner, S. C., was made at twilight on the on the evening of July 18th, 1863. In that assault Colonel Robert, Gould Shaw fell dead upon the parapet, Captes Russell and Sipkins, and other brave men tell while keeping the embrasures free from the enemy's gunners and sweeping the crest of the parapet with their fires. Leuttenant Colonel Edward N. Hallowell reached the parapet. Desperately wounded he rolled into theutch, was again hit, and with great difficulty managed to crawl to our lines. An unknown number of enlisted men were killed within the fort. Forty enlisted men, including 20 wounded, were captured within the fort. The state flag, tied, unfortunately, to the staff with ribbons, was lost. The staff itself was brought off. The national colors planted upon the parapet were upheld and eventually borne TOPEKA, KANSAS, FRIDAY·MORNING, JAN. 1, 1969. off by Sergeant William H. Carney, whose wounds in both legs, in the breast and right arm attest his devotion to his trust. His words: 'The old flag never touched the ground, boys'' are immortalized in the pages of history and the verses of poetry. The regiment went into action with 22 officers and 650 enlisted men. Fourteen officers were killed or wounded. Prisoners, not wounded 50. Total casualties, officers and men, 269, or 40 per cent. The character of the wounds from bayonet thrusts, sword cuts, pike thrusts and hand grenades; and there were heads and arms broken and amused by the butt ends of muskets. It is fi. that the last act, the act which cost his life, should be one of courtesy. In stepping aside to make room for another his leg was caught and crushed. Sergeant William H. Carney was a gentleman. Peace to his ashes' LEXINGTON, MO. The girls attending college at Quindaro have returned home to spend the holidays with parents.

Mrs Eva L. Jennings of Salina, Kansas spent N'mas week visiting relatives here. Mr Samuel Henderson of Kansas City, was in Higginsville last week, visiting relatives. Prot W. H.

Alfred Perry and Arthur Williams of Kansas City, were here visiting relatives last week. Several of our gentlemen left on Monday morning for Lexington, to attend the Fair association. Green Patterson is still confined to bed. All were well entertained last week at the banquet given by the Maso ie lodge. Mrs Henry Elmonds has been ill for a week past, but is improving. Jack Johnson, the colored pugilist from Galveston, Texas, is the world's heavyweight champion. He won this title in the big arena at Rush Cutter's Bay, from Tommy Burns, the French Canadian who had held it since James J. Jeffries relinquished it, and after a chase of Burns that led half way around the world. The end came in the fourteenth round when the police,seeing Burns tottering and unable to defend himself from the savage blows of his opponent, mercifully stopped the fight. Previously it had been arranged that if the police interfered a decision should be rendered on points, and referee McIntosh declared the black man a winner, for all through the fight he had shown himself Burns's master in every style of fighting. Burns, in an interview after he had gone to his dressing room said. "I did the best I could and fought hard. Johnson was too big and his reach too great." Johnson appeared fresh after the fight, while Burns's eyes were badly puffed and his mouth swollen to twice its normal size. He fought a game battle and showed indomitable pluck, but he was no match for the big Texan. Twice only in the annals of pugilism has a colored man been permitted to fight for the title emblem atical of world's champion heavyweight pugilist. Peter Jackson tried it with John L. Sullivan, but Sullivan would not consent to a go. After James J. Jeffries took the scalp of Bob Fitzsimmons he took on Hank Griffin at Los Angeles, but the colored man was easy for him and never had a chance for the honor. He was knocked out-in four rounds. Jeffries then drew the color line and several years later retired. Johnson had tried to get on a fight with him unavailingly. Then, Tommy Burns, or Noah Brusso as his name really is, took up the mantle of Jeffries Since then and till today Johnson endeavored to get him in the ring, declaring he was Burns's master. Jack Johnson is the first Negro who ever won the world's heavyweight pugilistic championship. He was born in Galveston, Texas, in 1875, and began his ring career in 1901. He is 6 feet, 1 inch in height and weighed at the ringstic close to 190 pounds. Burns was born in Huever, Ont., in 1851 and started fighting when 19 years old. He is 5 feet, 714 inches in height Johnson during his ring career has fought 64 battles and 22 of his opponents have gone down to defeat by the knockout route. The colored men in the postal service are making great progress A. I. Mason, Charles Barnett and Frank Foster, who run on the D. R. I. B. K. C. and C'S. C are forging their way to the front and their pay checks are increasing each year. The race is certainly proud of these young men and wish that they had thousands more like them. Miss Bertha Cole, one of the most widely known and popular school teachers in Kansas City, Kansas, was murdered at the corner of 3d street and Virginia avenue, about 4 p.m., Wednesday, December 24, only a block from the school where she was employed. Miss Cole and a number of her fellow lady teachers, and a Mr. Crawford of Chicago, (her betrothed) were standing on the corner, preparatory to going shopping in Kansas City, Mo. As they approached the street car and were in the act of ascending the steps a young Negro woman about twenty-one years of age, Floresc Miles by name, slipped up in the rear and shot Miss Cole in the back of the neck, causing her to fall headlong in the entrance of the street car, dying in a few moments without ever regaining consciousness The Miles woman at once escaped, and kept hid until Christmas day, when she was discovered in a vacant building, and rather than be captured she ran into the cellar and shot herself to death with the same revolver that had snuffed out the life of Miss Cole. This point is not more than two blocks distant from the scene of the killing and the Cole residence. Florrie Miles was the sister of "Sandy" Miles, who lives near 6th and State Ave. It is said that she at one time served out a term in the Kannan State Reformatory. According to the relatives of Miss Cole the trouble was all over a trivial matter. Last Christmas the Miles girl made a table centerpiece for Miss Cole and presented it to her as a gift. Later in the year she demanded that Miss Cole return it, but the latter could not at the time find it. Thereupon, the Miles girl vowed vengeance, and had repeatedly made threats against the life of Miss Cole, at the same time pretending an excess of love and friendship. At the time of her death, Miss Cole was not expecting harm from anybody, to say nothing of being murdered. Miss Cole was 25 years of age. She was born in Clay county, Mo., at a country home and graduated from the high school at Liberty, after work entering Western University. Quindro, where she also graduated, she then taught school for two years in the district school at Quin laro and two years at Tower, Okla. Returning to Kansas City 15 years ago she secured a position in the ward schools, where she has earned deserved promotion for her unusual literary and musical ability. She was a pianist and sop moist, and a member of Allon chapel choir. Last summer she spent her vacation in Denver, where she directed and trained the talented Shorter's A M E choir, of Denver, in some very high grade musical work. She was superintendent of the Eighth street A M E Sunday School, and was a member of that church. Not alone NUMBER 1 a Happy New Year. A COLE IN THE STREETS. in Kansas City did she have a host of friends, but in the Young People's Congress of the West she was a potent factor, and at the time of her death was making elaborate preparations to attend the Inter-State Literary at Omaha, of which organization she was the recording secretary. She was a member of the Alice Brown Chapter No. 40, O. E. S. and was buried Sunday, December 27th, under the rites and ceremonies of her lodge. An immense crowd turned out to pay her a last mark of respect and love, and a most impressive funeral was held. She leaves a father and mother, a sister and four brothers. Thus ended the life of one of the most promising and able of the young Negro womanhood of the state of Kansas. WESTERN UNIVERSITY. Last Tuesday, December 22nd, in the electric lighted Auditorium, the college play, "For Her Sake," was produced by the young men for the benefit of the Athletei Association. The acting was very good, and the play very clever. Miss Ethel Minor was the heroine, Carmel Nichols the rich young villain, and Robert Ransom the lucky hero. Numbers of presents were received by the students the past few days, from "the folks at home." Each evening one of the faculty has entertained the students in frolic and pastime. Mrs. Mary Ryan, of Spokane, Washington, has been visiting her son Walter, during the holidays. She entertained the entire faculty and student body in the Dining hall, last Thursday evening, as her personal guests. Mrs. Ryan has a most pleasing personality and a winning smile that is simply irresistible. The Missouri Colored Teachers in session in Kansas City, Mo, have contributed a large number of visitors eager to impet and learn more of the effective work done by our institution through the entire West The news of the tragic death of Miss Bertha Cole, in Kansas City, Kins., last week, has shocked our whole community. She was one of our most successful graduates and was held in high esteem by all. A number of teachers attended the reception given by Prof. and Mrs Yates of Kansas City, at the B A L U Hill, in honor of the debut of their daughter, Miss Miry. Members of the faculty and employees of the institution made up a parse and purchased and forwarded to Dr W T Vernon and wife, a beautiful black-leather rocker of large size, as a Christmas gift.

E. CHURCH. Farewell to 1908 Dear Old Year, we look back and remember you with deep reflections of gratitude. You have been kind to us. In our experiences whether sweet or bitter, you have always kept close to our side administered blessings to suit every case. In the tear-drop you have given the promise of the rainbow. In the shadow of the sombre cloud you have revealed the silver lining. In the heat of the day you have brought the cooling shades of the cedars of Lebanon. In every condition throughout the year you have been with us and have emphasized the Master's "Lo, I am with you always." In our reflections we are conscious of the fact that we have not used well every opportunity that you gave us for service and improvement. If it be possible we would have you forget our mistakes and failures, whatever they may have been and draw the mantle of charity between them and yourself, and remember only those things wherein we have tried to do the right. We part as friends, for we hold nothing against you The errors were all our own. In saying fare well we testify to your honor and faithfulness in the discharge of all your duties from the first to the end of the last day. Again, farewell, and may we meet in a happier and fairer clime. The new year dawns. All hail, 1909! We extend a hearty and glad welcome to you. Many of your relatives have been passing this way for centuries; we have tried to treat them kindly and we have found in them true and tried friends. In fact, if they had not come to us with their stores of goods and done for us the great they did, we could not have continued until now. We know your goodwill toward us from what the past hath wrought. You ask of us fidelity in the use of your precious moments. It would be less than human for us not to promise to comply with so wise a request; for your request is based upon the good that shall come to us if we grant it. And now we ask of you the kindness that you take us by the hand and lead us gently on through these 363 days.
