SECOND BAPTIST CHURCH RECEIVES NEW PASTOR Last Friday evening at a reception especially prepared as a fitting welcome for its new pastor the Second Baptist curch threw wide its doors and welcomed also into its midst a large concourse of the citizens of this vi-
Dr. H. D. Prowd
There appeared on the program short welcome addresses from every department of the church, and many of the business places of the city. These addresses were filled with glowing words of appreciation for the new pastor and his family which consists of a wife, two daughters and two sons all of whom occupied places, on this occasion, upon the rostrum beside Rev. H. D. Prowd, the pastor in question.
At the close of the program
POPULAR AND PROGRESSIVE CITIZEN BECOMES A BENEDICT
Returns from Nashville Where He Married One of that City's 695-Gal 6-Eagle
Mr. Cleveland Buchanan of this city, who is receiving clerk at the very exclusive Kaniwald Apartment House, and who is also the private secretary of the very wealthy owner of the same. Buch, as he is familiarly known by his friends, is a prince and is known for his good nature and sterling worth as a citizen. He is a man who is enterprising and alive to all of the things that spell progress for the Race. He has made an enviable record with his employers who oftimes leave the city for a month at a time and leaves his large business affairs in the hands of Mr. Buchanan. He has a record of only being absent from his post but one day and a half in three years.
It is therefore with no small degree of pleasure that we congratulate our friend, Mr. Buchanan and wish for him a pleasant voyage on the sea of matrimony. We also welcome to our city his bride, Mrs. Jennie Lee Noel Buchanan, who has been detained on account of illness, but who will arrive here on the 1st inst. Mrs. Buchanan comes from one of the leading families of the Athens of the South. She is a daughter of Dr. and Mrs. H. T. Noel, who are one of the foremost families of Nashville, and we are sure that her coming in our midst will be a pleasant addition to local society. They will be at home to their friends after April 10th.

which in addition to the addresses consisted of musical selections and words of welcome from the other pastors of the city, Rev. Prowd was called upon to respond. When the Rev. took the stand the great audience which packed the church edifice to its utmost capacity, arose to its feet, and be,
Dr. Prowd, with no perceptible emotion, but with great feeling and touch in his every word and expression, convinced those who came out of curiosity, sympathy and interest, that he was a man of God, and that his presence in this community came out of his deep appreciation for the great work to be accomplished in this section.
The Eagle joins the church in its hearty welcome of its new pastor.
The following is an account from the Nashville papers of reception tendered both Mr. and Mrs. Buchanan.
NASHVILLE, Tenn.—The home of Dr. and Mrs. H. T. Noel was the scene of a beautiful reception on Feb. 23, from 7 to 10 p.m., when they welcomed their friends in honor of their daughter, Miss Jennie Lee Noel's marriage to Mr. Cleveland Buchanan of Los Angeles, Cal. They were married on the 16th inst., in the presence of the immediate family, Dr. C. W. Morrow of Fisk University officiating.
Misses Annie Stewart and Annie Compton attended the door. Mesdames C. N. Langston. and E. B. Jefferson introduced the guests to the receiving line. Standing with Mr. and Mrs. Buchanan, were Misses Vashti Caldwell. DeWitt Shorter. Derniece Compton, Gladys and Manila Owens of Los Angeles, Mrs. Cartwright (the groom's aunt) and Mr. and Mrs. Eugene Price.
The bride's gown was a beautiful creation of white charmeuse, trimmed with real lace and pearls. Her bouquet was of white roses and ferns. The ladies in the receiving line were attired in evening dress, making a charming picture. The color scheme of pink and white was carried out in the floral decorations and the ice course.
Many handsome gifts of silver, cut glass, hand-painted china and linen, attested the popularity of the couple. Mesdames Jennie Compton and Rena Baker had charge of the gifts. The wedding register was kept by Mrs. F. A. Stewart, the bride's aunt.
Misses Ethel Jordan and Hazel Thompson were in the dining room where they presented each guest, as served, with a heart shaped card, announcing the date of the marriage.
Mesdames H. A. Boyd, R. S. White, Durand Houston and Dr. Wells, assisted Mrs. Noel in welcoming the guests.
Some of the events given in honor of Mr. and Mrs. Cleveland Buchanan were a reception by Prof. and Mrs. W. J. Hale, a tea by Dr. and Mrs. C. W. Morrow, dinner by Mr. and Mrs. William Compton, a whist party by Mr. and Mrs. Eugene Price and a motor ride by Dr. and Mrs. Stewart. For Mrs. Buchanan, a miscellane-
ous shower was given by Misses Caldwell, Shorter, Scott and Dr. Wells, and a musical by Mrs. C. N. Langston. For Mr. Buchanan, a stag and smoker was given by Drs. Napier, Moore, Messrs. C. N. Langston, Carter, Page and Boger.
THE SOCIAL EVENT OF
THE SEASON
There is no question but that the formal dance given by Mrs. Maud Stallings at Normandie Hall on last Tuesday evening in honor of her niece, Miss Vivian Campbell, and the Summit and country club boys, was the most pretentious and gorgeous affair given in this city in many months. There was no minor detail overlooked and it seemed to be the greatest ambition of the hostess to make everybody at home and happy.
The affair was strictly formal and some of the gowns worn by the ladies were the latest creations of the modern modistes. The hostess was gowned in a gorgeous, jeweled oriental black net, Miss Campbell wore a silk net over chiffon, hand made pink roses and blue satin bodice, Miss Gertie William wore pea green taffeta. Miss Williams sang a beautiful solo which captivated the more than 150 persons present. Beside the above mentioned costumes all the ladies were most handsomely gowned. Space will not permit the names of all.
The hall was most beautifully decorated with pot plants and flowers.
The music discoursed was highly pleasing and the guests tripped the fantastic toe until 12 o'clock which came too soon on this occasion, but all joined in one accord in voting Miss Stallings as the queen of hostesses.
Those who assisted in receiving were Mrs. Cecil Green Jones, Miss Rose Warner, Miss Hazel Brown, Miss Edna Jackson.
RAILROAD NEWS
President Underwood of the Erie Railroad, a friend of the Race. Mr. Geo. C. Burke of Jersey City, N. Y., who has served as steward and private car man on the Erie Road for many years, visited here this week. Mr. Burke was all smiles and happy because President Underwood of the Erie road had appointed Miss Burke, his daughter, to a position as stenographer and typewriter in the Erie office at Jersey City, N. Y. This was a grand recognition of her father's years of faithful service and we feel confident that Miss Burke will prove herself worthy of this confidence placed in her by the highest official of the Erie Railroad Company.
We also feel proud of the record that many of our men as stewards, chefs and private car men are making. When the great financiers of the country make their trips for business or pleasure, they are properly looked after by our Race men and their wants satisfied on the great deserts just the same as if they were served in the best palatial hotels of the cities. Among the private car men, stewards and chefs seen here recently were the following, through the courtesy of Mr. Samuel W. Thompson, the S. P. private car man, their names were secured:

A short inspiring service for children, to which adults are also invited, will be held every Sunday afternoon in Lent, beginning next Sunday, March 12, at 5 p. m. We cannot afford to neglect the children of today. These little sermons to them are intended to teach them how beautiful it is to be good, and holy, and useful, and how ugly it is to be wicked and sinful and untruthful. Help them to remember their Creater during these forty days of Lent at least.
SAMUEL LEWIS, POLICE OFFICER, BEFORE THE BAR OF JUSTICE
The case of Samuel Lewis, who figured in the killing of his wife, Mrs. Mollie Lewis, February 24, at her home at 8th and San Pedro Sts., came up Wednesday in Judge Judson Brown's department of the Justice Court.
Agoodly number of witnesses for the State went to the stand, and in each case the testimony went along the same trend, each one stating that Lewis in the beginning stated that "I shot her, but I will tell you how it happened. My wife sent for me, and I went at her command. Upon entering the room, she (my wife) asked me to be seated in a rocker. I obeyed after resting my hat on the bed. Mrs. Lewis then asked me when was I going to pay her what I owed her and I responded on my next pay day. She then came in back of the chair in which I was seated as if to embrace me, putting one arm about my neck, and slipping the other into my pocket which she secured and then stepped over by the door and demanded with an oath that unless I pay her she would never let me leave the room. I pulled my pockets inside out saying again that I had no money, and waiting my oppor-

was reiterated, Lewis showed little emotion until the clothes of the dead woman were brought forth. Then an expression of great sorrow came over his face and features. It seems that up to this time Mr. Lewis has enjoyed a good reputation as a law abiding citizen and an excellent police officer, and it is to be regretted greatly by the citizens at large that such should have happened.

SAN FRANCISCO NOTES
The big Republican conference was in session last Saturday. There were two Colored men in the conference and it is said these two could not agree.
Times are a little quiet for news since the soldiers left for Fort Russell.
Mr. Joe Bailey of Los Angeles was in on his regular run Thursday.
Another colored delegate named Morris nominated W. O. Tyler of Los Angeles as a delegate to the National Convention.
A Colored delegate named Oliver placed a candidate in nomination thusly: Mr. President, I is the editor of a newspaper in Los Angeles, I came up here to nominate Mr. Ceruti as a delegate. The chairman, Capt. Fredericks, asked what are his qualifications? Why he campaigned for you two years ago and he is a lawyer from New York. W. H. SMITH. Sub.
The Second Baptist church of Monrovia, of which Rev. E. Wilson is pastor, gave a benefit rally last Sunday afternoon for Rev. Howard, the former pastor of that church, who has been ill for some time. Rev. Howard was so well thought of by the entire church. The A. M. E. church of Duarte, the A. M. E. Zion church of Monrovia, all joined in and made the rally a great affair. Rev. Wilson preached an excellent sermon for the occasion, which was held at the A. M. E. Zion. Text, 25th chapter of Matthew, 40th verse, which reads, "And the king shall answer and say unto them, "Verily, verity, I say unto you, inasmuch as yet have done it unto these my brethren ye have done it unto me." Colection raised $10.25.
CARD OF THANKS
To the many friends who have felt and expressed sympathy in my recent bereavement, the undersigned takes this method and opportunity of expressing his deep appreciation. To those faithful and devoted friends whose attentions and sacrifices have helped to cheer and relieve the last illness of my beloved wife, I beg to express my sincerest thanks, and acknowledge a lasting obligation.

Dear Aunt Jemima:—
Q—I am at present very lonesome and have been for the past few years. I am very anxious to have a companion and should like to get married. But it has always been my idea that many annoying things confront one in married life. For example. Having some one to ask where you have been and why you stayed so late when you have very important lodge meetings that keep you.
A.—A man who avoids matrimony on account of the cares of weaked life, cuts himself off from a great blessing for fear of a trifling annoyance. You have no doubt got that idea of thinking that your wife would worry you about lodges from some wife who questioned her husband because she found that it was not always lodge that was keeping him out late. "Lodge" is often an untrue excuse with men.
Q.—Can you please tell me the colors that are to be worn this season?
A.—I think the colors very pretty; some of them are all shades of blue, gray, tomato red, and ripe watermelon. A great deal of white is also to be worn.
I take the opportunity through this column to urge all young women, married or single, to take advantage of the lectures and exhibits that are going on on South Broadway. The movement hoping to lead to a stronger generation.
Q.—What is your opinion of these new, Bennious collars that cover over half the face?
A.—It is true that any style that comes along goes in Los Angeles, but my opinion of those
collars is that they look very silly. But this would be a queer world if all our opinions were the same.
DEMOCRATIC PRAXER
Most Worshipful Woodrow Wilson, President of all these United States and Shepherd of the Democratic flock; thou who holdest great juicy slices of pie in the hollow of thy ample hands, when not holding thy new wife, and dealeth it out according to thy righteous will; we, thy poor, weatherbeaten and unworthy constituents, come tumbling down on our tummies to nour out our political devotions to thee and bless thy glorious Democratic name and to wish thee a large family of little Democrats in due season. Give ear unto our supplications, Great Political King.
Master Wilson, we thank thee that we are anxious and waiting Democrats. We are anxious to know what thou wilt have us do. We are waiting for anything that thy excellency may see fit to give us. We are waiting for thee to give us 20 cent cotton and 8 cent cattle. We are waiting for better times in general. Some of us haven't paid our taxes for two years.
We will confess that it is not as well with us as it might be. By some unaccountable reason several of us have not got jobs worth speaking about. And thou knowest a Democrat with no office and no work is in a devil of a fix. We simply can't hurrah for "Wilson Prosperity" under such circumstances. It, makes us feel like sheep-killing dogs.
We could stand it to be without work, and have our rations run short and see times get hard, if it wasn't for the infernal Republicans making fun of our lot and saying "we told you so." Master Wilson, that hurts like blue blazes.
That is the straw that is breaking our backs. Maybe this is the reward for our wickedness. But if something is not done pretty quick thou mayest not find us waiting at the gate. There are other parties calling for us. We hate to pray like this, but starvation is hell on manners, and we can't help it. If our prayer is unpolished it is due to the desperation of starvation. But with all our crudeness and lack of manners we want to emphasize the fact that we are absolutely ready for our reward and we will accept thy pie blessings as gratefully as ever a little dog accepted a chicken's liver.
Mighty Master, thou knowest we can't be Democrats without reward. Thou knowest we voted for thee with the understanding that we inherit the offices and the emoluments thereof. Yet we see Republicans holding over everywhere while we are down in the gutter. Again, we declare that we are ready. We will take anything that thou hast. We would be dog-catcher for the back districts of Hepsidam. We would be tick inspector. We would be fertilizer smeller. Just anything thou hast to dispense we will thankfully accept, and the quicker the better.
And Master Wilson, there is one important question we would ask thee. It may be treason in us to want to know such a thing, but we can't help it. It is this. When dost thou expect the Free Trade tariff to begin to lower the cost of living? We know it is wrong to be impatient, but, Great Chief, if something is not done pretty quick we are going to have hard work keeping the party together; besides, we are going to have a harder time keeping our own souls and bodies together. Something to eat is getting shorter and shorter with us, and the price is mounting to the sky. Worthy Master, we wish that thou wouldst explain this tariff business a little. We can't understand it to save our lives. We thought reducing the tariff made things cheaper. We have always been taught to believe in that theory.
Again, Mighty Chief, we beseech thee to hear our prayers. For heaven's sake don't saddle us with a bond issue. We read in the papers that thou art considering a big bond issue to get money to run the government, and dodgast them bonds. Thou should remember that Cleveland sold bonds, and it busted our party into smithereens. We never can survive a bond issue. Bonds means slavery, and slavery is worse than war, and war is worse than hell. It will bury us so deep we will never hear the gun fire this year. Cut down salaries rather than sell bonds.
Oh, mighty Woodrow, thou who hast already skinned us out of our jobs with thy business-busting Free Trade farce, don't get us scaled in a war. Thou knowest, dear and mighty ple-distributer, that we have never had any luck with war, anyway. Thou knowest that in the great history of the American people thou hast written how we Democratic dupes followed the party call and went to war against the Stars and Stripes for four long years, and how "Honest" Abe Lincoln licked the

THE REAL AND THE UNREAL MAN
Scripture Quotations, From The 20th Century New Testament
Remarkable address delivered by Rev. J. D. Gordon before Ministerial Alliance, Tuesday, Feb. 22
(Continued from last week)
Such would be true only of the naval part of the tree. The seedly part of this tree would rise up and declare all the claims of this Naval branch to be false, and it would assert that it was the original part of this tree and knew whereof it spoke. I am dead certain that no tree can bear fruit without producing seed, it is entirely against nature, and also it is contrary to the word of God, which says, "Every tree shall bring forth seed after its kind." Now you can see that each one of these contenders are true, in the sense he speaks; but neither tells the whole truth as it really is. So those who claim that man cannot live a holy if, in this world are only true, if they mean that the Adamic man or seedling part. This can not live holy in this world or in any other world, for this Adamic man is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be that that is born of the woman cannot live in heaven, and for that reason they must be born again. So in thinking and speaking, let us make clear the difference between our true and false selves. May God bless what has been said to the good of us all.
I have described the origin of the old and new man. But the text says, "Get rid of your old self and its habits and be clothed upon with your new self." We shall now discuss how this can be done, how we can get rid of our old selves and be clothed with our new selves. It is not enough to say get rid of your old selves and tell not how such a thing can be done. Is it really possible for one to get rid of his old self? In order to see whether this change is possible, it would be well to see how fixed in its nature is the old self. Let us not forget that this old self is not of Divine origin. And if you destroy your old self, you cannot charge yourself with crime, because this self is not God's man and is not subject to God's laws. Therefore all heaven favors any change that means the complete elimination of this old man. Since God did not create him, he is not essential to being, and being is better off, by far, when it is destroyed. To get rid of your old self means more
than quitting your old evil habits; it is the getting rid of the old doer instead of the old deads. Still how can I get rid of my old self? If this is an important matter, surely the word of God will somewhere contain a way or plan by which we can get rid of the old self.
We must develop a mission, a disgust for the unreal man, the sinful selfhood and then positively know that such a selfhood is not your own real self. Because thou has loved righteousness and hated iniquity, therefore God, even thy God, has anointed with the oil of gladness above thy fellows. In other words, you must deny your old self. If you have ever witnessed an old mother hen weaning her young you have the key to your own soul's advancement. And following the example of the hen, you will do for your false selfhood what the old hen does for her troublesome brood. Jesus calls this denying your self.
When I continually deny my self, then the falsehood begins at once to loosen its hold upon the consciousness, and this continued, until you reach a positive state of knowing the false man. Men and women know better how to get rid of their false selfs than they realize. In trying to shift the mind from one person to another, one way that makes the matter simple and easy is to find another person upon whom to place your affection, and finding this more acceptable one, is the easiest and best way that I know to break the charms of your former friend. So in getting rid of your old selfhood, the best and easiest way is to find your new self, and the charms of that one, altogether lovely, breaks the influence of the one from whom you seek to be free.
you seek to be free.
In getting rid of your old selfhood, we cannot stifle the old selfhood and suppress his thoughts, words and deeds and succeed and successfully free ourselves by that method from our old self. And since our old self is not a real self, but a collection of erroneous thoughts and conclusions; therefore we must call into exercise the powers of our new selves. This new self has a new will, which is the very will of God; and this new self has a new mind, or the very mind of Christ, according to the word, "Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus." And God destroys the heart of stone belonging to the old self and gives this new self a heart of flesh. Then it is self evident that this new self has a new heart. All the old things and old habits are passed away, and behold all things have become new, because of this new self.
This new self has powers distinctly
its own, but remember that it is not
enough to be conscious of these powers in the new self, there must be a decied activity accompanying this new self. This new self takes on strength, like the old self, by exercise. The new self taking on strength, forces the old self aside, for the strong man holds his own unil a stronger one comes. So we must give suitable exercise to this new self. Sit down, call into play the thinking faculties of your new self, and then be certain that it is your new self thinking, and if it is your new self thinking, your thoughts will be according to the truth of God's word, kind with the very kindness of heaven, loving and gentle. This is that tree which you will know by the fruits it bears. If it is your old self thinking, it will be just the opposite. Three times a day, fill up on loving thoughts for all the world, and send them out to all the world, and especially to those have despitefully used you, here is the test by which we demonstrate to the world at large and to our own souls, whether we are living in the new man or the old man. By the above method the heart of your new self and the mind of your new self links itself with the universal forces of love and all of the organizing powers, and even with God Himself, and being thus linked with power takes on the very power of God. The old self is then set aside completely and your new self enthroned. "If ye through the Spirit do mortify the deeds of the body, ye shall live."
CIRCUS DANCE A BIG EVENT Three Peizes To Be Awarded For The Best Costume
The coming circus dance which will be given by the Heliotrope Art Club at Washington and Central hall on Wednesday night, March 15th, is being looked forward to with pleasurable anticipation by the lovers of the club.
There will be clowns, acrobats, bareback riders, ringmasters and all that goes to make a real circus. Of course no circus is complete without the famous pink lemonade peanuts and popcorn. The club has arranged to have vendors dispense these necessities during the evening. During the grand march the dancers will be reviewed by judges who will award three prizes to the three persons whose costumes are the most typical of a real circus.
