The Excelsiors com mittee being a man light in color called on the officials of River View. A contract was drawn up and a deposit made. This com- mittee without any pretension on- ly went es a gentleman unassum- ing and modest. It leaked out in course of time that this quiet un- assumming person was a colored man aud representing a colored organization. River View mana- gers have sworn against colored organizations of every description. They would have carried out their determination had it not been for thie Excelsior committee. The least expected that a colored man would have the “audacity” to ask for River View. But the boys have got the bull by the horns, Randal! dares not draw out or the law will lay its steely fingers upon him. Itis further reported that they offer $50 if the Juniors will withdraw. Of course the Juniors will not withdraw. They can verify their boast that “they can get resorts that no other colored organization can get.” AT THE BEACH, Last Monday evening was a gay- ly day at Collingwood Beach, the oceasion being an excursion by the Working Club of Wesley Zion chureh. Everything passed off qui- et and everybody seemed to enjoy themselves. The club deserves cred- ittor their liberality in trying to defray the expenses of their new church edifice. Wednesday night was the “only night” on the Potomac. The pala- tial steamer Pilot Boy, after mak- ing atrip of 20 miles returned to the Beach and there everyone was frolicking under the rays of the beautiful moonlight. Itis a tact beyond a doubt that Messrs. Joice and Martin, who were in charge of the affair, can call the public at their disposal. Capt. Joice is small but he is a ‘‘huetler” and knows how to run excursions with success. The next event of the season, will be the Bre’s testimonial excur- sion to the Beach Aug. 3ist. Our patrons and the public are cordial- ly invited. See hand bills. THE “BEE” TO COLLING- WOOD BEACH. The patrons and friends of the Washington BEE and the public are invited to Collingwood Beach, to an all day and evening excursion on the steamer Pilot Boy, Friday August 31st. This will be one of the finest and most orderly excur- sions that has been given this sea- son. There will be three trips and equal accommodation for all. See particulars next week and read small bills.

Lew Wallaca, the editor wishes to cail attention to this book iv the press, will be out within a few days. A book of real merit with fine steel plates of the Presiden- tial nominees, numerously illus- trated war scenes, the life of Har- rison and Morton, the Chicago Platform, the Constitution of the United States with the amend~ ments, the table showing the num- ber of eléctorial votcs of the states and other sta‘istics mest valuable for reference. Ex-Senator Bruce, who recently met the author of “Ben Hur,” was told that the orders for the book are unprecedented. Every Republican will have it. ———_~ 2 + LADIES ON THE BEE. Within the last two years the Bes and job printing department have been on the increase, aud they are daily growing into popularity and influence. The management has offored special inducements to young ladies and thus far, we have a female collector by the nsme of Miss Mabel Reed a lady of good address and intelligence, we have slso in the person of Miss Jénnie Anderson, a very re- fined lady in the business office and sbe is also learning the print- ing business. In addition to these ladies, Miss Lula Chase and Mise E. F. Merritt will be taught the art of type setting and journalism, as they inteud to es- tablished a womens journal short- ly, hence they could not prepare themselves better than in this office. Aside from teaching fe- males, we have sent out several young men, who have been quite successful. A new cylinder press will be placed in our office in afew days and it is hoped that our peo- ple will continue to encourage this enterprise. This is the only office in the city where our young men and women can obtain a through knowledge of the printing busi- ness, we have every facility for a first class newspaper and job of fice. If our friends and the pat- Tous of this firm want a monu- Yy|ment to the race and a journal that will defend them against the wrongs of our enemy, let them en- courage us. WHITE SULPHUR SPRINGS. White Sulphur Springs, West Va., gayity is noticeable on every hand, croquet, base ball and enter- tainments. Miss Virginia Lewis, Mrs. M. E. Clark, of Washington D.C., Mrs. Lucy M. Leftwnich, of Baltimore, Md., and several ladies from Richmond, Va., whose names we did not learn, gave a successful church entertainment a few nights ago for the benefit of the pastor, of the Baptist church, here the A. M. E. church. Rey. Dyer, formally of Washington will ho'da mock murderer trial in the church tnis week, debating exercises or heed in this church every Friday evening, many of the Washington hoys took part, among them Mr. D. A. Morgan, aud Charles Green, noticeable among the ladies present last Fri- day evening, were Miss Leftwhicb, Miss Paugh, Miss Robinson and Mrs. Clark. The white sulphur base ball nine defeated the Lewis- burgh nine a few days ago by a close score. Mr. R. B. Squarrells, 2nd waiter is not playing croquet, this season. Mr. Walker Lewis, the venerable head waiter, has been slightly indisposed for the last ten days. Mr. B. C. Wiiting, is rapidly improving. Mr. Lee D. Jones, seems to be quite a fav- orite among the ladies. Green- brier White Sulpher Lodge of Odd Fellows, will have a sermon preached to them last Sunday in this month. Mr. Samuel Bolden, of Richmond, Va., arrived here a few days ago. Ripeway. $$ ee NEW YORK NOTES. The colored men in New York who are interested in the e'ection of President Cleveland are men of high standing and character; they are men of means and defray their own expenses, They had a meet- ing at the Gilbert House their head- quarters, Wednesday evening. They have engaged rooms there for the whole term of the canvass. Among those present or who came in were Hon. Jas. ©. Matthews, Wn, E. Gross, esq., Garnet Doug- lass, of Baltimore and other repre- sentatives from different counties of the State. Tie name of the orgauization is the Cleveland League of the State of New York. It is a representative and powerful association both as to brain, char- acterand means. None of them took any part in the Indianapolis fissco. They looked upon it as a scheme to extort money from the democratic committees. These men are honorable and support President Cleveland from convic- tion, They defray their own ex- penses and several of them in addi- tion have contributed to the National and State Committees. Representatives were present from New Jersey where a similar organi- zation is in progress. Mrs. Harry A. Johnson and daughters, of Washington D. C., left here on Monday for Media, Pa. where they will be the guest of Miss Mattie G. Hall and Miss Isa- bella A. Govern, daughter of S. K. Govern. It is rumored that a prominent base ball manager will lead to the alter one of Albany’s fair daughters. The Cleveland Leagues head- quarters, at the Gilbert House, are open daily, and those members who belong in New York City and vicin- ity take an activepart in folding and shipping the thousands of documents furnished to the people by the State committee. The League has several documents in the hands of the printer, which will be thoroughly distributed throughout the States by the sec- retaries of the League, The Cuban Giants donned their new uniforms last Saturday and then trounced the Pittsburgs 10 to 0. Manager S. K. Govern has every reason to be proud of his team, they not only play ball but their deportment defies criticism. Harry Hopewell of N. Y.,C. L.A. Cromwell, of Canjoharie and Geo. W. Broom, of New York City, are the secretaries of the New York Cleveland League. _Hon. J. C. Matthews was in this city four days last week in atten- dance on the National and State committees, who telegraphed for him, and also to set the machinery of the League in motion. The cen- tral clubs of the State League have acommittee consisting of Frank C. Lawson, A. R. Jehnson and Robt. F. McEntyre, who are con- tracting for the 160 nuiforms for this club who expect to make an independent parade as soon as they are equipped. Mr. W. T. Wood, formerly of this city, but now of New York, will be married October 8, to Miss Lula Garnett of Washington. Miss Garnett is very prepossessing in her manner and willno doubt add greatly to Williams happiness, who is living the quiet life of a bachelor in the great city of New York. By the way he has his mother with him. THEY SAY Who is responsible fora change of the record books? A big explosion will soon take place. Did the late collector change it without the recorders consent or knowledge? The president has requested the secretary of the Interior to investi- gate it. The BEE has the facts, Mr. Sec. retary: When a man gets too big for an office and can allow records to be changed after once recorded should be given a higher office. The tax list should have been put on right. The Bee excursion to Colling- wood Beach, Aug. 31, will be a great event. No disorderly persons will be ad- mitted onthe BEES Testimonial to the people. The monumental orchestra will have an extra selection to Colliug- wood Beach, Aug 31, If you want your children to en- joy a pleasant trip carry them to Collingwood Beach, Friday, Aug. 31. Mr. Douglass’ opposition to Prof. Langston will not defeat him for Congress. Sour grapes Mr. Douglass and the envey of a small man. Great men will not stoop to small things. Small men will do small and mean things. Was it not small in Douglass to allow Hayes to bar him from the executive mansion when he was made marshal? Look before you leap Mr. Dou- glass. : Douglass has got his foot init again. Langston is great and will no doubt come to Congress notwith- standing. the Mahone-Douglass combination. Let every loyal negro stand for Langston. There is a great conspiracy against Langston, colored men be on your guard. The people are for Langston. All honest men are for Langston- Meaness and treachery generally find their level. The BEE is the peoples journal. Everybody reads the BEE. The BEE has no fight to make against the weak. Prof. Gregory is making a model school trustee. Gregorys’ head is always level. Let the Brown-Cadoza investiga- tion take place with open doors. EAST WASHINGTON NOTES. J. W.
