OPEKA PLAINDEALER Historical Lore State Horn VOLUME XI. The Poor Man Need IN HONOR OF JOHN BROWN! Negroes Throughout the Nation will Honor the Martyr. To the Colored Citizens of the United States and their fellow countrymen In as much as by some error the New England Suffrage League at its 6th Annual Session in Boston, on Oct. 19th, urged the Colored people of the United States to generally celebrate the 50th anniversary of the public murder of John Brown and named the date Dec. 29. 1909, we, the undersigned officers of the said league, announce that the proper date is Dec. 2nd, 1909. In pursuance of the vote of the League, ratified by the mass meeting at the St Paul Baptist church on the night of Oct. 4th, and in consonance with its spirit, we issue this appeal, first, to all Colored Americans, and also to all their fellow countrymen, to assemble in public memorial meeting on Dec. 2nd next, to honor the memory of this proto-martyr of freedom. We especially urge the National Interdependent Political League, and the Niagara Movement, to hold such public memorial meetings and all literary or patriotic societies to so do. We appeal to all the Colored churches of the country, and all other churches, to set aside the Sunday preceding Dec. 2nd, in honor of John Brown, as a day of prayer for the cause of freedom for which he laid down his life and of honor to this great crusader. We further appeal to the Colored press and all other publications to spread this appeal broaden before their readers. WILLIAM MONROE TROTTER, Pres. 77 Cornhill, Boston, Mars Rev. W. W. RYAN, Cor.

The most team tacked off to University and the ball was adviced to the middle of the field on the first down. The University has found a weak spot in the Y M. C. A line and advanced the ball into the Y M C. A's territory. The Y. M. C. A. team advanced the pigskin ten yards out of their territory and then the ball was lost. With the ball in their possession W. U. taking advantage of the weak spot already found. advanced the ball to the Y M C.A's fifteen yard line Y M C A's defense tightened up but with heavy lino plunges the university eleven advanced the ball yard by yard until the Y M C A's one yard line was reached. Here, with desperate efforts, the Y M C A team held their opponent for the straight down. The ball went to the Y M C A: a successful punt followed and their goal was out of danger.

W U.'s full back skirted the Y M C A right end. "Parnuts" Y M C A's plucky little quarterback made a sensational attempt for a firing tackle, narrowly missing the runner.

The university boys, realizing the danger now threatening their goal, put up a stubborn defense and gained the ball on downs. With the ball on their five yard line W U tried for a punt but the ball was blocked. Ransom fell on the pigskin on W U.'s three yard line. The Y M C A teams were now confident of a touchdown and quick as a flash. Thompson passed the ball to Ransom, who hurled himself against the stonewall defense of Western University but was thrown back. In vain the Y M C A's backs tried to break through the university's defense but to no avail. The ball was lost and W U punted out of danger.

POSTMASTER FISHER. For the first time in the history of Kansas a Negro has been appointed postmaster. At the little village of Quindaro, where the great Western University is located, a postoffice has been established and our esteemed friend, Hon. W. W. Fisher is postmaster. The office has about 250 patrons besides 350 students at the school. It is awfully new to Kansas and Kansas to transact business with a Negro postmaster, but old to Mr. Fisher he having served Uncle Sam in the same capacity in South Carolinain under McKinley's first administration. This aroused theire of the Southern whites and by special request, the colored postmaster, like an Arab, "folded his tent and quietly stole away." He landed in Kansas and the people of both races have rejoiced and felt that is good to have him with us. He is a pungent writer and his gift of oratory and forceful, convincing manner of presenting a proposition has made him a host of friends and a leader in whom sensible people are not afraid to place their trust. This appointment does not in any way interfere with Mr. Fisher's duties as fiscal agent for Western University which he will continue as in the past. It is a high compliment to Mr. Fisher's integrity to be appointed postmaster at that place and shows that if you once serve Uncle Sam honestly and faithful he will always look you up.
