A Most Unique Surprise One of the most delightful social affairs of the season was that of last Tuesday evening, when Mr. and Mrs. Charles H. Barton of East Capitol avenue were tendered a surprise by a party of friends from Bloomington. The occasion being the twelfth anniversary of their marriage. The surprise having been planned and so successfully carried to execution by Mrs. George Hoagland of Bloomington, was the most complete it has ever been our lot to witness. The luncheon, which was carried out in a red and white color scheme, had been gotten up by a special caterer at Bloomington and transported to Springfield intact. The cozy home of Mr. and Mrs. Barton was beautiful in its decorations of American beauty roses and ferns from a leading florist of Bloomington. The tall cut glass vases of twelve American beauty roses being the crowning feature of a most beautiful luncheon table. The place cards were white miniature bride's slippers bearing dainty hand embroidered handkerchiefs, for the embroidered handkerchiefs, for the dresses, and burnt leather purses with small folder photographs of the happy couple, for gentlemen. Mr. and Mrs. Barton were "Be ye doers and not sayers only." Pastor of the Union Baptist Church, Who is Preaching Some Fine Sermons showered with many handsome pieces of silk and fine linen.

What it is to be Born Again As the child has a certain life before it is born, and is then brought into this natural world to develop in accordance with its laws, with its aims, purposes and results so that it belongs to the kingdom of human nature, and all this through life imparted in some way by God. So one who is born again enters the spiritual realm, is alive to God and righteousness and love; his chief controlling motives are love to God and love to man; his deepest choice is to serve and obey God.

In the coming election every vote will count for much. The Democrats will be hard to defeat, and may not be defeated. There are large numbers of erstwhile orthodox colored Republicans who have sworn allegiance to the men on the Democratic ticket whose records are good and who believe in a just apportionment of the "spoils" as well as good treatment to all. A majority of the colored people have always been with the Republican party, but it will not pay to remain neutral and expect for them to support you solely because you are affiliated with the G. O. P. because we know whereof we speak. They will not do it in the coming election. A COLORED COUNCILMAN AT NASHVILLE.

Earl Gilchrist, a mere boy, who has been sentenced to hang by an Arkansas judge for the killing of another colored man, is being aided in this city by the Illinois State Journal and the colored people. A petition has been prepared by the Journal, the only paper taking a humane hand in the matter, setting forth why the boy should not be hanged and imploring his excellency, the governor, to say the execution and change it to imprisonment in the pen. The colored people are circulating petitions and large numbers are signing them. The boy is too young to be hanged and to hang him will be a disgrace. In Illinois he could not be legally hanged. CAN DENEEN BE RE- ELECTED? Some people declare that Deneen has no more sure thing than a "rabbit," but some of these fellows said so before. The main question is, can he really be elected a third term? Yes, it is possible. He has the State machine behind him, but it is a question. If he announces himself and will so rehabilitate his political matters so as to be able to retain all the support he had in 1908, he has good chances, but that is the question, Can he retain them? "On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets." Women have been given suffrage in California. When women have a little more experience in politics, they will find that they are not the proper "jewels" for the ballot. Women have no business taking part in politics. Their place in the world has long since been established, but you have to let them see for themselves that they are not to rule, but to be ruled and protected.

The hardest political battle ever before witnessed will be pulled off in Illinois in the approaching political struggle. The fight seems to be mainly against the Governor. It therefore is evident that it will be harder for Deneen to win this time than before. On account of the civil service law, employees are forbidden to work for or against any candidate for office, and that will be some hindrance, because in the last campaign one of the most effective and educational campaigns ever before made was put on by the employees of the state.

The exhibit has been arranged and is managed by Mr. Barclay Freeman of Belleville, Ill., who has had charge of the St. Clair county exhibit for fifteen years. During all these years he has failed but twice in securing first premium for his county in the exhibits of the Southern Division.

Dr. Jameson is making great plans, and he expects to build a new edifice in the very near future. St. Peter's A. M. E. Sunday school is beginning to get back to its old standard again. Last Sunday the attendance numbered 120. With Supt. Carl Watkins' most efficient leadership and the supervision of the pastor, great things are expected. Messrs. Fred Phenix and Chas. Bronner gave a dance at Traver hall last Thursday evening. It was largely attended. Mr. Carl L. Watkins and wife have moved from South Franklin street to the 800 block on West Decatur street. Rehearsals were started last week for "Princess Moonbeam in the Garden Love," a musical play to be given during the holidays for the benefit of the "Ladies Court." Miss Gertrude Dansby, Decatur's most talented colored artist, left Saturday via the Wabash for Chicago to take up her work in the Art Institute there. Dr. Stewart, a most able speaker and preacher, spoke at the Antioch Baptist church Sunday and gave a lecture on the following WILL H. BEELER Prop.

Colored people can't eat promises any more than white people, and the Republican party must not hope to retain its Negro contingent on this kind of "food," because we do not intend to ignore men because they are allied with the Democratic party, when such men are our friends and are willing to give us nutritious food to eat and not promises only. In Massachusetts they are again calling for the Negro vote to help regain that state into the Republican column. Colored people must go back to the farm at all cost.
