Broad St. Richmond, Va., July 86, 1894. J Members of the Newspaper Fraternity: Grsktino: There seems to be a concerted effort on the part of the bourbon Southern whites press to belittle the efforts of Miss Ida B. Wells and to deny the truth of what she says in her crusade in England where she is arousing public sentiment against the crowning infamy of the nineteenth century— American lynch-law. It is plainly evident that the Afro-American Press should continue to rally to her support and to have its columns utilized in her defense. Therefore it is earnestly requested that all race editors write at once an editorial setting forth the hideous situation of affairs in this coun-ry, so far as it relates to lynch law. It is further suggested that in view of the fact that certain untrue scanda’ous and outrages statements have been made against the moral character of Miss Ida B. Wells who we all know to be a lady of unblemished character, a self-sacrificing worker in the intrest of the race with which wo ar»3 identified, one who was at one time honored with the position of Secretary of ibis Association that each editoral sup plement the article refered to by another in her defense. Cowards, poltrooms, villians at tempt to assassinate one’s life work by just such underhanded methods and from their attacks no one in public life is secure.

This is a course which will commend itself as the proDcr one for all bodies and individuals in S3*rapathy with workingmen to pursue. One fact in connection with the great Chicago strike, which cannot be denied is that Pullman treased bis employes tyrannically and cruelly. There is no law which will compel any one to use his cars. The delegates from this state may follow the example set by the Massachnsetts T. A. B men.—Connecticut Catholic. Actual measurements have shown that the siz-i of a hair depends much upon Jts color and that suoh fl'aments on the hu man head vary from the 250th to the 600th part of an inch, blonde hair being finest and red the coarsest. Dr. Zung, German specialist, says that the average number of hairs on a blonde head is 140,000; on the red not more than 90,000. Right in the middle of the finest residential portion of Montreal, with ita grounds having a frontage on St. Catherine, Guy and Dorchester streets, stands the Convent of the Gray Nunnery, one of the largest and certainly one of the hancsomcst from an architectural standpoint in America. The convent is built of griy stone and stands in its own beautiful grounds amid bright green trees aud cultivated gardsn plants. The Order of the G*'ay Nuns was founded in 1747 with tbe object of assisting the poor and ever since the time when the convent was an incommodious building ncartbe river side the good Sisters have been gradually increasing in numbers until now they are some seven or eight hundred, and the good they are doing in the city every day is incalculable. The number of inmates in the convent now is nearly 900, of whom over 4(X) arc Duns, always busjr, always b ight and cheerful and devoting all the best fruits of their labors to the benefit of the poor for the love of God. The kind and cheerful Sisti-r who con ducted us over the building first showed us the pharmacy of the convent, a bright neat room, better supplied with bottles of drugs and other appliances incident to medical practice I han isa druggist’s shop or thelat»oratory of an outside doctor. As trierearcliitle It ss than a thousand persons altogether in the convent and a good number of these are in d( dining old age and others are but a few weeks old and c<mse quently subject to all the many ids of infancy, the doctor and the good Sisters, therefore, are almost continually employed attending to cases of slÍL*ht disposiiltin, but every remedy for serious cases may be supplied from ttie stores in the convent when occasion requires. In the medical department is a Sister who is a qualifieil dentist, and can crown, fi.l, bore and extract teeth as well as a male dentist. Tbe Sisters, say the patients, would rath» r the Sister extracted their leet i tnan an ordinary dentist, for she has more sympathy for them and is at greater trouble nut to give I hem pain. Leaving the medical department we proceed to the repository of devotional articles. Here are rosaries, scapulars, crosses and other articles, all made either by sick or poor inmates who are to fe ble todo heavier work. In addition to the above the Sisters make relic cases and stands Some of these cases are beautifully and very gorgeously decorated with gold filigree work and bright silk plushes. In this room also arc several nuns highly skilled in the manufacture of mementoes from the hair of dead relatives or frb iids. The mementoes take many forms, such as hair watch charms, rings and other artirl s for personal w'car. The process by w’blch hair is made int > these varied articles is fxtrcKiely slow and tedious, and can be executed by a vei^ skilled person of strong artistic tastes. The shortest lengths ot hair can be used. On one card was hair of a dark brown color, some of the single pieces of which were not more than a quarter of an inch in length when handed to the S’ster. Yet all of them were utilized and converted into a beautiful floral design, which was a real work of art. In a glass case was a w’reath of flowers, all made of human hair. The flowers were rais« d and lookeil most natural and attractive. The hair of which the wrtath was made * as of three generations of a family. He e was the gray hair of the grand parents, tbe two shades of brown hair of tbe parent-and the bright vell iw locks of tbe little children, all harmonizing in co’or and woven together in a valuable and uncommon personal mem< nto which could be kept and treasurtd in the family for yeais a id years. In a room a little further along the cor-rid* r is being carried on the work of making the lovely wax figures of the Infa»ii Jcbus, which brighten the crib in the churches at Christmas time. These im ages are moulded entirely of good quality wax and are tinted and have tbeir eyes in-erted afterwards by nuns w’ho devote their lime especially to thia work. The work of chiselling the features of the images into definite form is intrusted to another Sister. The favorite mould used by the Sisters in making these figures was presented to them nearly one hundred years ago by the Jesuit Fathers, and they have kept it ever since. In another room along the same corridor six or seven Sisters are busy making vett-ments. The methods of working are just (he same as were followed hundreds and hundreds of years ago in the convents of the old world. Very few innovations have crept into this beautiful task which enables the g<x)d Si'Ursto employ their highest artistic abilities for the immediate glory of God. In this room there were being decorated some oxquis tely beautiful and costly vestments set with valuable stones and heavy with filigree gold. The Bisters love their allotcd work and take great pride in showing ft to a vi llor. In a room across the corri lor from tl is were a number of lay Sisters engaged in making the host fiM'tfie Blessed Sacrament. Nothing but the very finest and the very purest of flour is used in the manufactuie. A gas mach'ne is used f< r making the wafer into sheets about ten inches by twelve in size and then a cubing machi..e shapes them. In this room also are made die wax candles for me on the altar. After visiting all tbe manufacturing parts of the hou^e, we proceeded to tbe e Juca-rional portion. The Sister wh » was conducting us said: “We admit persons 1 ere of all ages, from babies a week old to the oldest men and women. Poverty is th» only qualification.’’ The Sisters of the Gray Nuns, mostt of whom are of good famdy, spend thoir whole lives and vow them'Clves to povertj 80 that they may be the better able to understand and care for the poor for whom they do so m'ich. In the instituii-.n are 400 pi »or persons who are supported and clothed by tbe efforts of the nuns. These people have no claim upon tueir generous benefactors except the claim of poverty, and this claim to the good Sisters is mo» e powerful than any other that could be put forward. n In one long, airy r^om were 14o old wc-m« n contenidiy knitting and sewing and otherwise occupying their time useful | those wiio were too feeble to wrorksit in big easy chairs and chatted pleasantly t« one another, probably of their young da ■ Several old men were sitting around in another room. There are ninety-five old men in the institution, but in the summer t’memo! t of ihein prefer to go out pottering about m the garden. One large plot in the garden has been generously given by the mother superior especially for the production of tobacco for tbo old men, so that they may cnj'»y their smoke as il thev had remained prosperous in the w rid* L p in a bright nursery, on one of the higlier flats, are forty little swinging cots, in which babies from a week old are reposing. It is an arduous task to manage so many little infants, but the good Sisters accomplish it, and the little tots are almo-t as tenderly cared for as they would be under the care of a loving mother. When the children grow to be 5 or 6 year.s of age they are transfered to another department among children of their owm age, and at the age of 7 or 80 they are put to school, where they remain for about six years.and then plac *d-out to earn their own living. FOR COLORED MISSIONS» After visiting the numerous other (departments in the building, including the kitchen, laundry, bootmakers’ and printers’ shops, stocking makiog rooms, weaving- rooms, the Sifters dormitories, the children dormitories, etc., we went to the chapel, which is a magnificent strnctnre, and owes much of its beauty to tbe genero-s’ty of the late Mrs. -T iflin, who donated the beau'iful pictures on Its walls and the costly jeweled tabernacle, as well as many other beautiful statues. Mrs. Tiftin was an inmaic of the convent for ten years io the capacity of boajder, and tier many i»c s of gener«)6ity to tlie church, h« r exemplar» life an I love of the poor, endeared lier to all who knew her. Especially "as Sie loved by the Sis'ers wi h whom she ha l come in contact. KHIVATE DETECTIVES. NUMBER I* T»st Amount of Xiambug; an<l Black-msilinir Oone by Them. It Is a long while since thocout-ta lave dealt with the pii ate detectives, and as a result the rqen who ply this pa tjcularly nefarious t -ado are bejoming unusually p onineut ain in Now Yo k. They a e advo tising extensively, says the !iew York Sun, and many oi the old offices, vi^hich wore shut up when the c usade ag irist them began In sarnest a few years ago, have been reopened and the old shingles hung out again. The private dotevtires wero driven out of business by the newspapers ^d the strict attitude in the matter (aken by the police. 'The ”ork of these men is nearly always sneakis'n In character. They make a specihl-ty of preying upon the jealousy or suspicions of married women, and their business is a lucrative one, because, as is generally known to the police, they almost invariably sell out to bcth parties. A woman who is su.s-picious of her husband is caught by the attractive a(^vertisement of one of these agencies> and ventures into the clutches of the manager of the concorn. She wishes to have her husband shadowed, and two men are detailed to watch his movemenis. Shadowing is no longer profitable in Now York, and iP seldom resorted to by the regular police force. If the detective succeeds in finding out one or twofaets a*boufe a man that he would not care to have his wife know, ho makes an arrangement with him by which all the reports submitted to her are revised by him. In other words he writes the reports, while the detectives take up some other case. Thoir charge is usually |4 a'day for each man who is supposed to be shadowing a victim. So it costs the wife $8 a duy for a report which her husband dictates, which usually ;hows him in the light of. a painstaking and unexceptionable husband. The amount which the husband pays depends upon the ability of t'ne agency to boat him. It has been proved in scores of instances that the business is one ol blackmail and fraud, and the police view wiili some alarm the great increase of agencies during the past year. Shamefal IVaste. Lord-Chancellor Eldon was energetically aided in his parsimonious habits by his wife, of whom it was said that she and her daughter bad but one bonnet between them. ' One morning, intending to enjoy a few hours’ sport after a rainy night, he ordered Boh, the pony, to be saddled. Lady Eldon tcrid him he co’ald not have it, but company being in the room, gave no reason. In a few minutes, howeve»*, the servant appeared and announced that Bob was ready. “Why, bless mo.” cried her ladyship, “you cau’t ride him. Lord Eldon, ho has got no shoes on.” “Oh, yes! my lady,” said the servant, “he was shod last week.” ••Shameful!” exclaimed her ladyship; “how dared you, sir. or anybody, have that pony shod without orders? John,” continued she, addressing her husband, “you know you only rode him out shooting four times last year, so I had his shoes taken off. and have kept them in my bureau over since. They are as good as new, and those people have shod him again; we shall be ruined at this rate!”—Argonaut The first chiss making the compkü cour^, graduated this summer from any Collége, Baltimore, Md.
