We can say of this part of the city as being one of the best business portions forour race. Here we have doctors, lawyers, druggists and _ grocers. Among our most successful doctors are Dr. P. B. Brooks, whose practice is larger than any one in the South- west: Heis aman worthy ofhis profes- sion have won for himself a name that will not die. Dr. Childs comes among us as a Christian gentleman, since here he has made many friends and won many laurels in his profession. Drs. Collins and Mischeaux have done much good in administering to the sick as well as seeking the welfare and betterment of our people. Dr. Wm. L, Tignor, last but not least is the coming young man of the Southwest. He has friends to let. For our druggists—the old and re- liable stand of Dr. Geo. W. Murray is yet holding its own. But the beautiful druggist at 3rd and F is among the leading stores of the city. We can say of Dr. Harris as being one of our suc- cessful druggists. None has made the rapid progress in business as he in suchtime. You will always find what you want, and the purest and best at the lowest price. He is kind and courteous. The many friends and strangers are always welcome. Our last but not least is Mr. Plum- mer, who is making up for old and new. His place of business is quite neat and charming. He will make it pleasant at any time. | We shall say more of our men in the | grocery and confectionery line next) time. We have come and we are here to stay. With more of your help we will demonstrate the fact. ARLINGTO JILLE. The attempt to improve Maine ave., by the citizens of that place is a com- mendable one ; and the citizens front- duty to join in its completion. Mrs. Susan Summerville, returned home on Thursday last. Mr. Summerville is making a desirable improvement to his handsome residence in Washington avenue. Mr. and Mrs. William Gant, of Washingon avenue, are also im- proving their home. The citizens generally are much dis- gusted with the cruel manners of an elderly man whom they charge with ‘cruelty to the boy preacher, Asbury Forbes of Baltimore, whom they say is carried around in ill health, against his ability and compelled to reach; and that the same in their belief is done in support of the old man, in- stead ofthe boy. That on Sabbath last, too hot for any one, this boy was com- pelled to preach at the Mt. Zion Bap- tist Church, to an over crowded house to suffocation when other people were fainting.

The Unity working club of the Mount Olive Baptist Church, which afforded pleasures for several hundred ersons afew days ago on the beauti- «] lawn of Mrs. M. H. Ball, is now arranging for another.

Imme- dard following the inter-racial con- vention of the Christian Endeavor societies will be the coming of the National Convention of Afro-Ameri- can Women. | This gathering will = brace the most brainy women of t x race from Maine to Texas and — Carolina to Minnesota, The local wor! .W.

Bush, and Mrs. Jesse Lawson, superintendent of the ‘Afro-American Woman Christian Tem- perance Union of the District of Uol- umbia. All of these ladies hold high and honorable stations in the indus- trial and Christian work. The gen- eral committee of our local work is sub-divided into committees on recep- tion, decorations, refreshments, finance, and public comforts. The Convention with Mrs. Booker T. Washington, as its president will com- mence od July 20, 21st, 22d, at the this city, where industrial and religi- ous culture will be discussed in all methods, and people who have waited so long for something to turn up, may come now and see them. The National Federation of Afro- American women in their convention assembled were formaly welcomed by the Honored District Commis- sioner, _While the former custom of our r4- cial aud National courtesies is ex- tended to the commissioners, it also hoped that the hospitality of our hotels will not be closed against the repre- sentatiyes of our race while in the city for four days. Their indisposition to be hospitably generous, necessitates this precautionary mention. Rev. M. E. Davis of Friar Point, Mississippi, attended the meetings of the Christian Endeavor. Mrs. Ida Brown and family have pomanently removed from this city to ennsylvania, and will live in the city of Philadelphia. The International Christian Endeavor organization which convened here on the Sth and sustained a matchless reputation for an audi- ence over 50,000 strangers added toa great city population of meany 300,000 gave undying impressions of Chris- tianity in this community. It was both international and inter-racial in its protection and its tar reaching and wide spreading influence, is fully ex- pressive of the world’s growth in grace and in the knowledge of the truth. The unusual display of Christianity that runs deeper than complexion of the skin, is a marked proof of indifference between the Northern and Southern methods of Christianity, therefore the good impressions made, left us as the flood does cities in the mountains. Excellent music by the St. Paul Baptist Choir, every Sunday. Miss Amelia Foy, an appointee of the late Frederick Douglass and Mrs. Francis Jackson of Kansas, the per- sonal appointee of the Recorder of Deeds, haye been relieved from duty, The Bush Meeting, opened July 12, at Washington View near Catholic University gates, was auspiciously begun, a large gathering being in at- tendance. At 11 o’clock the intro- ductory sermon was preached _ by the Rev. N. Reeling, from the fifteenth chapter of John, verses 1. 2 and 3. It was a vigorous effort and seemed to touch the sympathy of the hearers. At 3 o’clock the Rev. Edmunds, and at 7.30 the Rev. Kelly, conducted ser- vices. The meetings will continue for three or four weeks longer, Pastors and congregations, with the public generally are respectfully invited to attend.
