NO COLOR LINE TO BE DRAWN. It will be remembered that some weeks ago the hired manager of "Un- cle Sam's Club" for Soldiers and Sail ors, corner of Fourth and Cedar Sts., refused to allow some colored soldiers who went there, to enjoy its privi leges. Some members of the Equal Rights League interested themselves in the matter and applied to the prop er authorities at Washington, D. C, and the answer has come that no dis tinctions on account of color are to be made in that club. A BAD BILL. Tbe bill to establish "An Addi tional Battalion for the Minnesota National Guard" has been before the Military Committee and been recom mended to pass. It has been some what amended and some, objection able features have been taken out, but it is just about as objectionable as ever, and should it pass, which it is hoped it will not, some of the short-sighted colored men who were cause of its being framed will very probably have cause to regret that such legislation was enacted in Minnesota. As a matter of fact there is abso lutely no need for such a bill. The bill under which the present Minne sota National Guard was organized is all that is needed except that IT be amended to authorize the organi zation of another battalion just ex actly as the ones now in existence were organized. T/here is no neces sity whatever for the bill in question and it should not pass. MEMORIAL MENTIONING^. The talk of the Rev. C. Mohammed last Sunday evening was a unique treat. Among the several recent additions is the Rev. G. M. Davis of Gary, In diana. The supper given last Friday eve ning, at the residence of Mrs. Grant Bush, 396 Rondo St., by the Memorial Literary Society, was a happy event. The Valentine dinner given at the residence of Mrs. J. W. Cleary, 499 St. Anthony Ave., by the Twilight Cir cle, Mrs. C. H. Spaulding president, was a pleasant affair and a decided success.
