TOO WHITE TO WED
a A COLORED WOMAN!
A Virginia Judge Sentences
a Negro Bride and Groom
to the Penitentiary Because
he Deemes Latter too White
for Black Wife.
case in the history of Virginia has
developed in Farville, where Marius
Lindsay and hie wife both believing
themselves to be Negroes, have
been sentenced to exght years each
in the penitentiary,the court having
adjudged the man to have enough
white blood in hiw veins to be
legally white.
Marius Lindsay 18 the son of a
white woman. le always accepted
a story however, that he had col-
ored blood in bis veins, believing
this he had arsociated with Negroes
from his infanoy, lived with them
and attended their churches and
echoolk. Some few months ago
Marius was married to Sophy Jones,
a Negrese and the widow of a Negro,
and eince lived with her.
Indictments were brought against
Lindsay on the ground that he isa
white man, who had married a Ne.
gro woman and against his wife,
Sophy, for having married a white
aman, being hereelf a Negreea, the
lawsof Virginia prohibitivg euch
intermarriage. The vourt while
dwelling at length upon the tragedy
that has made this man and woman
criminala without any intention on
their part of committing a criminal
act, declared the mariiage null and
vord, and rentenced the prisonem to
the penitentiary for having con.
tracted an inter-racial marriage,
The cowry added, however, that
while under the law he was forced
to pronounce sentence, he would
probably petition the governor to
pardon the prisoners without allow.
ing them to be taken to the peni-
tentiary, but upon condition that
martial relations between them
should cease,
The above article shows how
unfair and how low a majority
of the Southern whites are when
dealing with colored people.
They have fixed it so that in
thousands of cases it is impos-
sible to tell a colored person
from white, and now they damn
them for contessing black blood
and if they deny it they are
damned just the same! |
This man has been taught by
the Southern white people that
one per cent. of colored blood
makes him a Negro, and now a
judge in Old Virginia has
changed it and declares that he
belongs to the white race. How-
ever, there is no just aw that
prescribes what the color of the
skin or texture of the hair should,
be before persons are permitted
to marry, ‘The white brother
started the ball to rolling, now
let him take his own medicine,
We are sorry that these peo-
ple did not appeal to the United
States Supreme Court and see if
a state has the right to interfere
with marriage contracts no mat-
ter of what nationality the par-
ties might be. The time is at
hand when men regardless of
color will demand all the God
given rights enjoyed by the so-
called ‘superior’? race, and the
white South had just as well get
ready to take their medicine.
The Pastor in the]
A. M. E. Church!
| Hy RLV. GR, RUNVON,
| Every pastor in tne A. M.E.
church is pledged (1) to build up his
[pastoral charge; (2) to so direct its
efforts as to enable it to meet its
temporal requircments—lozal and
general, This can be done only hy
unswerving and uncomplaining go-
fog forward in the discharge of their
duty as is done by successful men in
the other walks of life’s activities.
They should not complain of the
growing demands today in the
church’s finance. No secular busi
ness management is content with a
atandatill yearly exhibit—an increase
iademanded of every agent and
manager uv matter what the business
may be.
The pastor of the A, M E churcb
should be a progressive mau. The
secular business world will not re
tain a non progressive man, The
church of God is going furward by
leaps and bounds—whuat was requir-
ed to meet the financial demands
twenty five years ago, would net by
ane half do so today, The same 1s
true of the secular world—her hbra-
rica, schools, factories, railroads, etc,
etc., all demand increase expendi=
tures and better supervision; no one
but c ronic grumblera criticize these
increased demands. And it ie fair
to say that no progressive pastor is
ever found in the category of criti-
eising the increased demands of the
church, No man, in the church or
out, complains of getting too much
himself—why draw the line on other
intereste? A boomerang is a dan-
gerous weapon—even when thrown
atthe other fellow, This age de-
mands of the church service achvols,
missions, hospitals, homes, teachers,
as well as churches and preachers,
The church is an institution found-
ed by the Son of God to serve man
—and that in the name of God which
servesman best serves God best,
The world is progressing; the church
should lead, otherwise the candle.
stick will be moved out of its place,
One's measnre of success is attained,
not by doing one’s best, but by what
one accomplishes in a given direc-
tion~ fn or out of the pastorate.
The grumbler always fails sud causes
othersto grumble. Then, like the
junocent (?) hare, which started a
pebble down the hill,and as it gath
ered othera and gorged the ravine,
thereby causing, finally a flood, and
seeing the destruction, was quick
toexclaim; “Iam glad I sint got
anythirg to do with thai!” Yet, be
caused the flood It waa just a case
of thief hollowing, “Stop. thiet'” |
You can count on it every time
When you hear a pastor say Our
peopl: won't stad for it; its driving
them from the church,
We hear a great deal about “bout
licking” and “sycophancy” but what
is meent by “following with a glad
heart the admonition of those who
have the rule over you.’ Men are
worshipped in the secret orders (it
is right) and are obeyed But ifa
pastor pays deference to‘nis presid-
ing elder or his bishop, he {s only a
sycophant, As the old rooster crows
the young ones learn’ and so we
learn much from the example of the
pastor as to how to treat a minister
—per se.
Are we not ourselves responsible for
much of the untowardness met with
in our charges? The rugged prayer
of the mountaineer was Now, God,
if you won't help me, don’t help the
b’ar.” Now, pastors are all brothers
—ifwe can’t help one another we
ought notto help eremies of the
church [the b’ar.) Do we not too
often act as if the present was all-—
regardless as to what effect it will
have on the morrow,

THERE was a time when the all absorbing question was "Pringle and cot," now it is "Dolley and furniture!" This inflated disciple of pretended honesty must explain to the people how he slim-flammed the legislature and slipped new furniture into the House without the consent of the members.
A LIFE FOR FIVE CENTS!
In a quarrel over a debt of five cents, Albert DeMoss shot and instantly killed Charles Andrews Sunday evening at the door of a but 1334 North Madison, where DeMoss and his brother Clarence resided. Andrews was at the place where a dispute arose over payment of five cents, presumed by outsiders to be a balance due in a crap game. Andrews left the place saying, "Well, I am going home now and when I get back neither you (the DeMoss brothers) had better be here." He returned with a double barrel shot gun, and was met at the door by Albert who was the quicker of the two and fired two shots from a double barrel gun into Andrews breast, tearing the heart into shreads.
It is a deplorable affair and should serve as a lesson to other young men who are drifting into idleness. Both young men are from good families, but the path they chose has brought on a grief that will follow their parents to the grave. Every young man who fools his time away with cards and craps has nothing to expect save a fate similar to that which removed Charles Andrews, a strong, robust, young man yet in his teens.
Andrews' remains were shipped to Perry Wednesday where the funeral was held yesterday. At the coroner's inquest Tuesday it was shown that DeMoss acted in self defense and he was released.

The tower of the new building was twisted almost off the foundation by the exceedingly high wind Friday morning. To have seen it as it appeared on Sunday, one could but wonder what prevented its falling to the ground. And if it had fallen, it would in all probability have ruined the main structure. What might have been a calamity of great loss to the church as well as of much danger to the public was averted only by a merciful Providence. The pastor deserves to be commended for his bravery in connection with this event. At the risk of his life he entered the tower while it was swaying and shaking with the wind, and secured it with a rope. No passing was allowed on Quincy street that day. The tower has been replaced and strengthened, and it is hoped that no more such incidents will occur soon.

that involves the welfare of the young. Every religious journal is full of the thought, How to help and encourage the young. Plans and suggestions come from every source, showing that that subject is the prime thought of the age. Doubtless it is high time for all those who care for the future good of the race to awake and identify themselves with everything that is intended for the betterment of the rising generation. As a Christian, what are you doing to bring about the salvation of the world?
In your city, and many perhaps within a few blocks of your own door, are hundreds of lost man and women to whom you owe thought, prayer and sacrifice. When the Master shall ask "Where is thy brother?" what will your answer be?

It promises to be one of the most enjoyable affairs at the close of the season.
