How Washington Has Improved Within the Past Ten Years. An Intoresting Lecture by the Great Colored Orator. which was representative of the intelligent, lib- eral-minded people of Chicago, assembled at McCormick Hall last evening to hear Frederick Douglass deliver lis new lecture, **Oune Na- tional Capital.’* Tho colored element did not turn outss strongly as might have begn expected, but the moat uncompromising bellever. in the soclal and politieal righta of the negro could have no fault to find with the way in which the Four- teenth Amendment was put In practice. ‘The lecturer was tntroduced by Prof. Mans- fleld, and was recelved with applause.
