UTOPIA PLAYERS
AT THE MECCA
The Utopia Stock Co., under the
direction of Miss Ford and Mr. H. C.
Underwood, gave their opening pre
formance at the Mecca auditorium
Sunday night, July 30. The company
is composed of veteran performers
and they gave their patrons a show
which was well worth the money. The
scenery and the five-piece orchestra
under the direction of Prof. Cross
added materially to the show.
Miss Ethel Ural will be the headline
attraction for the bill beginning next
w eek, Aug. 6. There will also be five
other stellar acts. Every member
of the company has worked overtime
to make each performance a success.
They certainly deserve the support of
the public.

COLORED HERO AT
CLEVELAND DISASTER
(Continued From First Page)
the work that led in his personally
bringing out six men, two living and
.'our dead, one of the survivors being
Supt, Van Duzen himself.
This heroic achievemnt of Mr.
Morgan’s is a signal triumph. It not
only redounds to the credit of the
personal bravery of a race man but
^lso to his inventive genius. The
.lelmet which enabled Mr. Morgan
md his party to open the way and
.hen for a number of firemen, police
nen and others to go in after them
tnd bring out more victims, is a de
vice of his own invention. It is
nown as Morgan’s style two helmet,
ombination, smoke, gas, ammonia
ind sand blast protector. On the
merits of this hood Mr. Morgan was
.warded a gold medal at the recent
ntemational Exposition of Safety
.nd Sanitation held in New York
city.
Although the Cleveland dailies did
ot give credit where credit was du.
Ir. Morgan stands out as the hero
>f the disaster and as such received
ie personal congratulations of the
jity’s chief executive, Mayor Harry |
j. Davis.—Pittsburg Courier.
lOMETHING MORE ABOUT
THE KRUTOWN PEOPLE
(Continued From First Page)
he people of this country who have
o struggle so hard and then suffer
vith hunger we find that they are
letter off if happiness is the main

Another month of history has
oiled away with the Mt. Moriah
laptist Church, of which Rev. M.
H. Wilkinson, B. D., is pastor. The

•rganized, and sings at the morning
;ervice each Sunday, under the direc

come off next Sunday afternoon, tne
Jth inst., at 2 o’clock; Brother Thos.

report you shall hear of the improve
ment work that has been done on the
church. Collections for the month,

the Church held a bazaar in the
hurch basement for three nights of
.he week ending the 28th inst, which
vas a fine success. A fine quilt was
von by Mrs. Minnie Gains for selling
he greatest number of tickets. The
Sunday School had its picnic with the
?ion Baptist last Thursday at Fair
nount Park, and enjoyed a delightful
ime.—H. W. Wilkinson.
