Seven-up and old sledge were induiged in (as well as whiskey punches) un- tila late hour, and the guests departed to their homes in the happiest mocd. ‘There are no flies on Mrs. Luck, Her former experience in Chicago as a hash- slinger in a cheap hotel fits her to play the part of hostess 0 per- fection.” Gentlemen desirous of obtaining first class table board, during the the absence of their families for summer, can be accommodated by applying at 1509 15th street b, W. as early as convenient.

Name this «Liars aT workK'—The liar is still with us, and the venomous tongue is still at work. He has, as the latest transaction, covered the town with the report that we attended Mrs. Major Gordon’s birth-day party without a shirt on, and ina coat berrowed of Sol the te Jackson, the livery stable man. “It is an infamous columny ! “It isa lie steeped in malace! “It is a slander worthy of the days of Nero! “We not only wore a shirt but we had another at the office. “We not only did not borrow Sol Jackeon’s coat, but we wore one which we had owned for four- teen years. We beleive this -lie emanated from the Widow Stev- ens, who set her cap for us and got left. We are tracing it home and the authoress of it had better be prepared to skip.” * * Sk, “ATTEMPTED sUIcIDE —On Sat- urday evening last old Bill Tow- ner, whose drunken carcass has obstructed every gutter in town by turus, got an idea that he would be better off in heaven. He therefore went down to the bridge and rolled himself into the river. It was the first tumbler of water he had struck for thirty years, and it made him lonesome to get back to whiskey. Some people heard his yells, and sup- posing he was somebody worth saving, they hauled him out. We hope he will try it again soon. He spoiled the water for twenty-~ three miles down stream, and it’s no wonder he is ashamed to show his face on the streets up to date.” * * * “It HURTS ’EM.—The show of live ads., which the Kicker is now making hurts some of the news- papers in this locality awful bad. The Bullwhacker and others are charging us with precuring our ads., by threats and intimidation, It is a monstrous lie. Business men advertise with us because they know that we are reaching out after a circulation of 100,000 copies, and that we have already booked 134 names towards it. We drop into a business house in a business way, explain the advan- tages of advertising in a paper like the Kicker, and seldom go away empty-handed. While it may have happened that non-ad- vertisers, like old Cobb, the gro- cer, and Dead-Beat Smith, the druggist, have had their records published and been shown up for what they were, it was only a coincidence. Let the Jackals howl! Weknow our gait and propose to keep right along.” * * * «Come 1n,—- Will the individual who telegraphed the St. Louis papers the other day, that we had been cowhided by a woman please call and see us at an early date? We want to tell him what we think of his conduct and then break him in two. “The only founda~ tion for such a slander was the fact that Widow Briggs, who runs a crosseyed eating house on Ark- ansas Alley, called upon us to say that the Kicker had belied her. She had a whip inher hand. We offered to apologize, and she play- ‘fully hit us about the shoulders. Some base-born hyena at once wrote out a sensational dispatch aod hurried it off, calculating to do us all the harm possible. We have camped on his trail, however, and when sure of his identity will make his heart ache.” THE COLORED VOTERS. FREDRICK DOUGLASS WILL ATTEND THE INDIANAPOLIS CONVENTION AND LEAD A BOLT. Pirtspure, July 6.—The 2.500 colored voters of this city, who have hertofore voted in a solid phalanx for the Republican ticket, are exercisedover the convention called by the national committee of colored voters to meet in India- napolis July 25. J. M. Trotter, Recorder of Deeds in Wesbington, and Milton Turner, of Missouri, are the moving sperits of the commit- tee. The committee have desig- nated as delegates from this city Felix G. Anderson, associate edi- tor of the Broadax, and Walter Brown, one of the prominent leaders of the colored people here. ‘These men are staunch protection- ists. “This convention is a great scheme,” said Mr, Anderson. “Trotter, Turner and a few more have called it in the interest of Cleveland and Thurman, But old Fred Douglass will be there, and you know what that means. If the vegular convention deulares for the democratic party Mr. Douglass will at once calla rump convention and Harrison, Morton and protection will be endorsed and the negro vote at once divid. ed. This National Committee is about to start a paper here in the interest of the Demovratic Ad- ministration. Nevertheless,’ Mr. Anderson addet, “the colored vote of Pittsburg will go to Har- rison,” LANGSTON’S THE MAN. FRED, DOUGLASS WRITES TO PROF. STRAKER ABOUT THE SHERMAN CHARGES. (Detroit Plaindealer.) Prof, D. A. Straker, in reply to a letter to Frederick Douglass, regarding a buok he preposes is- suing, has received the following letter: Crprer Hitt, Anacostia. D.C, July 9th, 1888. My Dear Sir: I am obliged by your favor of July 4th You can scarcely do any better work than the publication of your book entitled, “The New South Investi- gated.” Your literary ability, your knowledge and experience, and your downright earnestness, will enable you to do for the sub- ject what few others could do. You have not only lived at the South, but in the heart of the South, Charleston, 8S. C. The knowledge obtained from what you have seen, felt and heard in that quarter will be valuable in the tremendous campaign upon which we are now entering. Inote what you say of Senator Sherman and I blame him less for his alleged utterances than for on Sunday evening in Chicago by a talented colored man who first voiced the charge of disloyalty and corruption of the colored dele- gates. Isaid at Chicago, and I say still, that I believe that Mr. Alger, if nominated, could be elected and would make an excel- lent president, and would be es- pecially true to cause of the dis- franchised colored citizens of the South. I thought so at Chicago, and think so still, but that thought did not swerve me one hair’s breadth from my support of Senator Sherman. But how ab- surb and monstrous was the doc- trine set up by the delegate referr- edto. Had that doctrine been carried out there could have beeu no nomination till doomsday, fr if every delegate was. found to stick to his condidate through thick and thin and to the end, a nomivation would have been im- possible, I never respected the colored delegates more than at this time at Chicago. sensible men. They knew that their attitude sbould be that of tollowers, not leaders. They could promise nothing for their states in electing any candidate, and it was for them to leave the choice of nominee largely in the bands of the North and West, and this they did. I think the Republican ticket is both person- ally and geographically s rong, and I never was more ceriain of | Victory than with Harrison and Morton. Frep«rick Dovetass. ————-~ 2 e—____. NOTICE.
