A Memorial Presented to tile School Hoard In Itegunl to Tlietr School*,
The School Board of Trustees held a meeting last night, the object being to hear the grievances of the colored people in regard to their schools and to ascertain whether or not they were well founded. A committee consisting of George Oliver, Joseph Peak, Zack Williams, Rev. 13. PettiforJ ami Lemuel Gipson presented the following memorial which was read by Prof. B. Allen: To the Board of School Trustee:
OK.NTI.K.MF.X—In accordance with the desire of the colored citizens,expressed in a mass meeting, called for the purpose of discussing better arrangements and greater efficiency in the education of the colored children of the city, we, the committee appointed to lay the grievances of the colored people before your honorable body do respectfully submit the following: 1. It is our opinion based upon observation and inquiry that it is impossible to give adequate and profitable instruction to the colored children of the city with one teacher. 2. That the inability of one teacher to instruct satisfactorily is further increased by the division of the pupils into eight grades, necessarily forming many classes and giving to each class a very inadequate portion of time for recitation, is an opinion most prevalent among the patrons and citizens in general. 3. We believe that under proper encouragement at least a large per cent, of the colored children could be brought into the school room, permanently. By proper encouragement is meant, the full complement of teachers essential for efficient work and a wise, close supervision over the instruction by the school officials.
I. Jt is our opinion that the statutes of law affecting public schools succinctly prescribe that an equality of instruction must be given white and colored children by school districts and school corporation. We know that under present conditions this equality is not maintained.
It needs no argument to prove that for colored children, colored teachers are manifestly superior to white teachers since the latter have no sympathy in common with colored children, do not associate at home, at church or on the street with colored patrons and are diametrically opposed in conduct and natural feeling. Colored teachers are employed in all cities where colored schools are maintained, and this alone is sufficient to prove the argument for tlicin. 0. And in the further exercise of the duty involved upon us, we do most respectfully present to your honorable body these interrogatives: 1. Is it an indifference to the needs of the colored children, or a conclusion that they do not require the same degree of attention given to white children?
II. By employing white teachers in the face of colored applicants is it concluded that a more successful work can be done that colored patrons are more likely to co-operate in making the school a success?
III. Is it not your desire to so construct youi system that all parts work uninterruptly. that it should be harmonious?.
IV. Is it your.intention to maintain a separate school which will be so conducted as to be a laughing stock of the town, a target for jibes of school boys?
V. What is the reason the request and desires of the patrons of the school are ignored? Surely it is not supposed that a school can lie made a success when 00 per Jcent of the patrons are determinedly opposed to it?
In addition we lay before you, gentlemen, the following requests: (a.) The employment of at least two teachers, one.male aud one female. (b.) The teachers to be acceptable to the patrons aud able thereby to gain the good will of the children. (c.) The maintenance of the colored school in charge of colored teachers or the abandonment of all separation on account of color. (d.) That a speedy understanding is necessary if the forthcoming school year is to bo a success or a failure.
The Keils lilt the Dual.
An exciting ball game occurred on the college grounds yesterday in which runs were made like nickels with a slot machine. The Crawfordsville Reds played the Waveland Warblers and the lieds came out under dogs. The score was 30 to 22 and Waveland clearly had the better of the contest. The batteries were Ransell aud Wilson for Crawfordsville and Moore and Moore for Waveland.'

THE CERAMIC COMPANY.
The New Pottery Plant Hat Begun Operations In Tills City.
Just south of Tom Seering's planing mill a new Crawfordsville industry has opened up and it is one of the most interesting of all industries. Tim JOURNAL trusts that it may also be one of the most successful. The Crawfordsville Ceramic Company is the title of the new firm and its object is the manufacture of pottery. The industry was introduced here by Elmer Spencer, a potter who comes from a line of potters traced back 200 years. He acquired knowledge of his trade or art in both America and Europe, and during the World's Fair was in charge of the Kentucky clay exhibit. He came to Crawfordsville to give lessons to the ladies' art club and has remained here ever since. He built a small kiln near the Junction and there work was begun. He soon realized that Crawfordsville was a fine point for the establishment of a pottery plant owing to the nearness of good markets. To be sure there is no fine clay here but it can be shipped easily and the success of a pottery plant depends much more on its nearness to markets than to clayas clay is easily shipped at no risk while there is a big risk and a big expense in shipping the finished product. Mr. Spencer then began to organize a firm and as a result a pottery plant has begun operations here. Of course the beginning is modest, the value of the plant being only about 83,500, but it employs ten hands and will run bothwinter and summer. The idea at present is to supply only Crawfordsville and the immediate vicinity but to branch out largely if properly encouraged. At present the kiln capacity is 0,000 gallons a week but this will be increased. The company looks to the manufacture of enameled brick in the future. It can now supply orders for Bristol jugs, art pottery, or in fact any special pottery named. Its specialty at present, however, is white enameled cooking utensils and these it will supply to the local trade in large quantities. The work is a most fascinating one and the factory is visited by large numbers. It has been decided to have the visiting days Tuesdays and Saturdays, when the general public will be cordially welcomed and shown through the plant.
The Falrvlew I'lc NIc.
The pic nic of the Fairview Horse Thief Detective Association, in Mrs. Servies' grove, eight miles south of Crawfordsville, yesterday, was a grand success in the way of entertainment and enjoyment. Many of the county candidates of both parties were present and were invited to speak, which most of them did. The food supply was abundant and all present were invited to partake from a common table under the beautiful shade trees of the grove. Apart of the entertainment of the day was recitations, declamations and songs by the school children, all of which were enjoyed and applauded. The exercises of the day were closed by a speech from Judge Harney, who gave an interesting account of the Indian tribes which once had their homes in this county.

The family of W. C. Woody met with quite an accident Tuesday by being thrown from the buggy into the ditch, but escaped without serious injury.
S. A. R. Beach was here Tuesday and we were very sorry to find liim so afflicted. but hope it will be of short duration and that he may soon be able to hear himself talk.
If we can keep our little boy from eating too many green apples so that he will be able to attend the show we will certainly be there on his accouut, as we have promised.
The speakers were driven over town on old settlers' day and expressed themselves as greatly surprised and gratified with our improvements and the beauty of our town.
Report says one of our business men dropped a few P's on the other fellow's game last Tuesday. Another fine old country gentlemen lost all he had with him and then tried to borrow as he was positive he could locate the ball.
The gentlemen that were forced to hide last Sunday morning as they were coming into town from the man leading his cow to pasture about sunup, must either not wander so far from me, start earlier or travel faster as they are liable to be given away at any time.
Clyde Prilchard, a grandson of Francis Pritchard of this place, took sick at liis home in Nebraska, but had a great desire to reach his grandfather's before death He started to make the trip but died at his friends near Thorntown on his way here and was buried last Monday.
We wish to say for the managers of the old settlers' meeting that they hud nothing to do with the grounds and were there on the charity of the association. While some things ma3' have been on the grouuds that should not have been they are in no way responsible, and with the exception of an old wind shaken pipe organ that kept time for the merry-go-way those at the speakers' stand were in no wise disturbed.
John and James Peterson have bought the Mong corner and will immediately clear off the old buildings and begin the erection of a brick block covering almost the entire lot, consisting of two business rooms and hotel. Much praise is due these gentlemen for their pluck and energy in investing their money and time for the best interests of our town. We have more men and money and would be glad to see them take hold on the opposite corner. Come on gentlemen.
Our marshal received a telegram on Tuesday telling liim to arrest and hold one Harry Boyd. Harry was soon in the lock-up and enjoyed the night there, but while out at breakfast next morning gave the marshal the slip and so far is still slipping. S. M. Miller attempted to locate him with his dogs but from some cause, he -thinks over feeding, liis dogs were slow to start and after vainly endeavoring to get tlicm started he gave it up. One of our business men then in the evening made the wonderful announcement on the sly that lie had seen liim enter the stable of Mrs. Wheeler in the morning "and that IBoyd was in there while they were hunting liis trail. Now what Miller wants to know is, why this same man assisted in hunting away from the barn, knowing all the time that he was in there and guilty of the crime of larceny.

Always accompanies good health, and an absence of appetite is an indication of something wrong.
