There was a meeting of the independ- ent colored republicans at 1429 Duke street Tuesday night for the purpore of making a more emphatic protest against the “‘itly white” republican nominee and to offset the late Odd Fellows’ Hall meeting, at which Capt. P. H. McCaul, republican can- didate for Congress from this district, made a speech. A letter was read from J. H. Frye of Culpeper county, in which he stated that 20 colored republicans were going to vote for Mr. J. KE. Rixey, the dem- ocratic neminee for Congress, as against Capt. McCaul: ‘Frye ‘also’ made a strong address, calling on voters to support Mr. Rixey. It is said that about 200 colored voters in this city have signified their in- tention of voting for Rixey.

A young couple have been prospecting all the early part of the summer, in short stops, at different points of interest, to find an ideal house in which to spend the late summer and early fall. The canny little wife evolved a theory in looking at hotele ‘and boarding houses which proved excel- lent to work upon. She decided that they should choose a house which had been sev- eral times enlarged under its present man- agement. “Other things being equal,” she observed, “that in itself shows that it hae been popular and that people have come back and browght. their friends.
