I remember writing something, a year or more ago, about the endless variety of societies, associations and organiza tions of every sort, social, benevolent and religions, among the colored people of Washington. They quite eclipse the white people in this respect. They even go beyond this life by having their burial benefit associations. If a negro is assured of a fine funeral, it seems to rob death of its sting. One of these societies—and there are nany of them—will have, perhaps, 100 nembers. When one dies each .pays $1. Phis furnishes money enough.to pay for i silver-mounted casket end carriages n which the members, wearing their egalia, ride in the long procession to ,he place of burial. The membership of each organization s usually limited to the desired num>er, and vacancies caused by death or itherwise are promptly filled. In order o insure an imposing cortege the men,ers are required, under penalty of a ine, unless valid excuse be given,' to ittend all funerals. They have droll names for some of heir organizations. “Grand Fountain, United Order of True Reformers,” is a t mutual insurance, and benefit asaociaion, with a hanking department at,ached. It has a membership of some 1,000 in half a dozen States, extending IS far as Ohio The subordinate organzations are called "fountains;” thia >ody is the “grand fountain.” It has ts headquarters in Richmond, Va., vhere a hank has for some years been n successful operation. It has a oaptal stock of 9100,000, and nearly that imount of deposits. A building is now n course of erection to cost $18,0001 Ml of whioh indicates a prosperous conlition of affairs, and goes to show that ,he negroes can do business ns well as : hose who are not negroes.
