Kentucky Colored Man, Original of Character of George Harris. A dispatch from Lexington, Ky., yester- day says: For the first time in the history of Kentucky the body of a negro has lain in state here. It was that of Lewis George Clark, who claimed to. be the original of George Harris, in “Qncl¢ Tom's Cabin.” His body reposed in the auditorium in Main street, from 9 o'clock, this, morning until 2 o'clock this afternoon: i Hundreds of persons tooked upon the fea- tures of the old quadrodg as he lay in a black casket. He was dressed in broad- cloth, and some red xosea were pinned to the left lapel of the cast. The crowds which passed in to see the body were largely com- posed of negroes, = fany prominent white citizens of Lexingtén also looked at the face of the old may, who, they believed, had helped to make histony. y part of the gene upon Hawaiian in- Shoes for Ghrigtmas. “I say, Cholly,”. # one chappie to an- other, going down Penn¥ylvania avenue, “where did you purchase the patent leath- ers?” mis “Aren't théy ‘beauts’ I bought them at Heilbrun’s, 402 7th street, you know, the place where they have the old woman in the shoe.” Speaking of Heilbrun’s, what could make a nicer or more useful: Christmas present than a nice pair of shoes, or a pair of com- fortable house slippers ‘to be used these winter evenings, when one comes in from a cold, dismal day on the street? At Heil- brun’s there is about as complete an assort- ment of shoes at reasonable prices as one could well wish to see.‘ They have a very pretty line of opera slippers, as we.. as house slippers. There is nothing in their entire stock that would not make a suitable Christmas present. “I tried a bottle of Salvation Oil on a wou2d and was cured within il days.

The facts are: In the first case, a firm of New York plumb- ers filed an epplication for a master plumb- er’s license, which was not in accordance with the regulations of the District of Co- lumbia, and sent a journeyman in their employ to take the examination for them. I protested against going any farther in- to the matter at this time until the regu- lations had been complied with, and was sustained by the board. In the meantime the work this firm was doing was being examined by the inspector of plumbing or his assistants. The Commissioners, through the inspector of plumbing, have refused to examine any plumbing work except that done by licensed registered plumbers. Therefore, they should have refused in this ‘ase. A license was not granted nor any examination held until after the above work had been examined. In the other case my objection did not hinge on the vote, but the result of the examination, the Commissioners. them- selves having rejected candidates making a hundred per cent better showing than this man, end had the Commissioners ex- amined him he would have been rejected. I voted against granting a license for this reasen, and shall always do so when to do otherwise would not be doing my duty to myself or the organization which sent me there as their representative, even though I am not sustained by those in authority over me, and have set ah example I am trying to follow.
