The following dry progessof cleaning kid gloves has been satisfactory: Pre- pare a generous quantity of cracker crumbs; button the gloves upon the handsand rub thoroughly with the crumbs. This process is especially effi cacious in cleaning those of light un- dressed kid, When washing linen embroidered with white silk use cold water and the silk will keep its pure, lustrous, silvery whiteness. It is the same with white woven silk; keep hot water away from it and it will retain its purity of white- ness, with no suspicion of a yellow shade.

A conversation took place in an East capitol st. herdic between three gentle-! men on last Thursday evening which was in substance as fellows: “The colored people are growing in numbers to an alarming ex- tent and ifsome measure is not re solved to check their progress in ed- ucation and wealth, the whites will} have some trouble in successfully competing with them, They are very gregarious and they are beginning ‘to; associate themselves for purposes of} business.” This phrase of the matter was met by suggesting the following remedy: “Yes they must be checked at any cost. If they cannot be removed to Africa or some other place we can get rid of them by methods less mor al than effective, yet m my judge- ment justifiable. They must be killed off. We know enough about making poisons and adulterating food as to get at the colored people in a quiet and sure way. We can fix the drug- stores and grocery stores and get rid of many as we like,”’ After suggesting this remedy, the fiend left the herdic, leaving the re- maining two to chew on what had had been suggested.They both agreed that, while the remedy suggested smarked ot villiany, yet it would be winked at by a large body of whites who are anxious to dispose of the col- ored people even if the means restor- ed to were not so humane, " ieee euadh socialite tests RRA SEDATE PEEL LAE RES EY PEIN ORB LINER PITRE EERE REA REAR STIR Lo CT AOI SHO US SOB ARNETTE ES HAVE YOU Bo Y OUR -- LANKETS Now is the time, if you Hav’nt.
