This debt, the Verwaerts asserted, amounted to 24,000,000 marke, which Emperor Frederick, immediately after beginning his reign, loaved the priuce of Wales in order to place the latter in 2 position to pay accumulated debts to the amount of 24,000,000 marks. ‘The loaned money, it was further asserted, was part of the savings amounting to 56,000,000 left to Emperor William I. Connt von Stolberg, then miuister of the imperial household, Tho Ver- waerts also says, vainly opposed the paying out of the 21,000,900 marks and thereupon resigned. From the most trustworthy sources it is ascertained that thero is no foun- Aation whatever for the rumors, fre- quently appearing in the German press, that Emperor William is largely indebted to Herr Krupp and other German capitalists, On the contrary, the kaiser is not only withont debts, but ho is saving money yearly for his children. Few of the morning papers comment upon the appointment of Emperor William to?be field marshal of tho British army, The Berliner Neuste Nachtrichten says: “It is gratifying that the excellent relations which King Edward has always fostered with the czar found a compliment today in the friendly per- sonal relations between Emperor Will- iato and the ruler of England.” ‘The Post says: “This spontancous mark of honor proves that the snggestiow of certain papers that the coolness between the, prince of Wales and the emperor will not be withont influence between the two countries is destitute of all found- ation.”* - Tho Berliver Tageblatt says: “Aman like the emperor will know, when a fitting occasion appears, how to. breathe life into his‘position of a field marshal of the British army, which in itself is purely ornamental. It may fairly be affirmed without ex- aggeration tkat Emperor William to- day is the most popular man in Eng- Jand and thero is no need to add that the fact isto the advantage of the 100,000 Germans living under tho British flag and otherwise bound to Grent Britain by the closest commer- cial ties,” s ODJECT TO ANGLOMANTA. At the same time there is much hendsbaking in regard to Emperor William’s pronounced Anglomania and the whole tenor of his world policy which, however, without the good-will of Grest Britain, is generally recog- nized as an impossibility. It is noteworthy how coolly the German press treats the news regard- ing the honors shown to Emperor William and the crown prince in England. Comparatively fow comment at all. However, the alleged remark of the kaiser with reference to the lit- tle sympathy displayed by tho reich- stag and Prussian diot in connection with the death of Queen Victoria al- thongh further repudiated, still con- tinues to be challenged even by ultra- conservative papers, ‘The Kreuz Zeitung, for instance, emphatically denies that the German legislative boilies had any reason to act otherwise-than they did. It cites Grent Britain's behavior at the.death of Emperor William 1 when parlia- ment did not adjourn and when the prince of Wales ‘‘cooly cabled” his silver wedding the following day.” + MAY RESUME BUSINESS.

Succes see, Seen eh, | A Washington special says: The houso Friday adopted the conference report upon the army reorganization bill, The naval appropriation bill was finally passed and immediately after- wards seventy-seren private pension bills, Mr. Hull, of Towa, chairman of the military affairs committee, in urging immediate action, said the bill should havo been a law three week ago; that it has been outrageously delayed in the congress of the United States, though not in the house, Mr. Hull appealed for the provisions designed to retire General Shafter as major a general, and Generals Lee and Wilson as brigadier generals, provisions which the house had stricken out. Mr. Richardson protested against voting to increase the list of officers on the retired list. “If that provision were out of the bill,” interposed Mr, Oannon, of Illi- pois, “would the gentleman ‘voto for ita” “The report empowers the president to increase tho standing army from 58,000 to 100,000 men,” replied Mr. Richardson. “If that provision were out also.” “That is uot a categorical response,” observed Mr. Cannon. “No,” replied Mr. Richardson. “I would never vote for the bill.” (Dem- Gcratic applause.”’) ‘Mr. Hay, of Virginia, resented in- dignantly Mr. Richardson's statemont that the report would give the presi- dent the power to increase the army from 58,000 ta 100,000 men, and took the minority leader severely to task for refusing to join in a fight fora temporary army when the bill was originally beforo tho house. ‘The conference report was adopted —183 to 100. Two Democrats, Clay- ton, of New York, aud Livingston, of Georgia, voted for the report. Mr. Rixey, of Virginia, moved to recommit the naval bill with instrac- tions to strike out the provisions for tho increase of the navy (two battlo- ships and two ernisors). It was de- feated—t2 to 182, The bill was then passed. ‘The house then took up private pen- sion bilta: QUEEN’S COFFIN SEALED. Hoyal Family Take Their Last Look on Fentures of the Dead. A special from Cowes, Isloof Wight, eays: The royal family took their last loving look at the features of the dead queen Friday. About 10 o'clock in the morning the shell was brought into tho bedroom, where were waiting King Edward, Emperor William, the duke of Connaught, Sir James Reid and the royal ladies. The fatter having retir- ed, Sir Sames Reid, with raverent hands, assisted by three trusted house- hold servants, and in the presence of the king, thé emperor a the duke, remored the body from tho bed to the ‘coffin, In death it was lovelier than in the closing days cf lifo, Nota traco of the ravages of disease was visible, ‘Tho servants having retiréd, Queen Alexandra, the princesses and tho children were recalled, and with lin- gering steps and stifled sobs, they passed slowly before the white-robed and peaceful figure. At the foot, never moving, stood the king, and when the mourning crowd had passed there remained only the son and grand- son of the dead. 4 Emperor William wept even more bitterly than the roya: ladies, Finally he also retired, and the king was leit alone. Sir James Reid, beckoning to the servants, who were holding the coffin lid, asked the king’s instrnc- tions. For a few seconds the king stood speechless, stricken with emotion at the last farewell, Then he said quick- ly: TuGlose it finally. It must not be opened again.” ° ‘Thus the remains of - England’s greatest raler were forever hidden eon haman wiew: More Guns Tor Britons, - A. special from Quoonstown says: “Bighteen field guns of the most mod- ern'manufacture, with their carriages ammunition, -wagons and_ equipment have atrived hore from Germany for service with the British army in South Africa,” POSTAL CLERKS FIRED. * Found Guilty of Trickery nt Dend Letter * Sale In Deceinber.

PRESIDENT MAKES THE REQUEST i Tlove Is Based on Report of the ” Philippine Commission to Secretary Root. President McKinley transmitted to the senate Friday a roport of the sec- retary of war inclosing the report of the Taft Philippine commission, The president says: “I earnéstly recommend legisla- tion under which the government of the islands may have authority to, assist in their peacefal indus- trial development in the direc- tions indicated by the secretary of war.” Secretary Root’s* letter of transmit- tal is dated January 24th, addressed to the president, and is in par tas fol- dows: “I beg'leave to supplement _my an- nual report of-November 30, 1900, by transmitting a report made by the Philippine commission on that date, but only recently received at the war department, At the same time I wish to call attontion to some conditions existing in the Philippine islands which indicate that the development of that country along the lines of peacoful industrial progress now re- quires the exercise of powers of civil government not vested in this depart- mont or in the United States military commander, but requiring a grant of ‘authority from the congross. — _ “The commission gives a gratify- ing account of the progress made in the pacification of the country and tho gradual subsidence of guorrilla warfare, A personal letter received by me from Judge ‘aft, dated Decom- ber 14, 1900, says: “ince writing you abont three thousand insurgents in TMoilo Norte have surrendered and 10,000 persona who were not well affected toward us in Panay haye token the oath of allegiance. I have already received two papers from natives tendering their allegiance to the United Stntes and promising fidelity without mental reserve, The armyis hitting mall but hard knocks against the insurgents everywhere, Since the election there has been a great falling off in the ac- tivity of the-insurgents in aggressive- ness.” - *'On the 2d of January the commis- sion as a body reinforced tho views contained in their report by the fol- lowing dispatch from Manila: “oor, Secretary of War, Wash- ington—If you approve, ask transmis- sion to proper senators and represent- atives of following: “« «Passage of Spooner bill at present session greatly needed to secure best result from improving conditions. Un- til its paseagé no purely central civil government can be established; 20 public franchises of any kind granted, and no substantial improvements pos- sibie. All aro needed asa most im- portant step in complete pacification, Strong peace party orgauized with de- fined purpose of securing civil gov- ernment under United States and rea- sonably expect civil government aud relief from inevitable but annoying ro- straints of military rule long before subject can be taken up by new con- gress.

Good element in pacification, Ur- gently recommend amendment to Spooner bill so that its operation be not postponed until complete sugpres- sion of all insurrection, but only ay- ti in president’s judgment, civil gov- ernment may be safely established.

Nover in the knowledge of tho old- est traders has the cotton market shown the abnormal conditions, which exisfed Monday. It is no unusual thing to witness a “‘equeeze” at the end of tho season, but a corner in Jan- uary Js something out of the ordinary. Yet a Janitary squeeze has been wor- rying shorts in the New York cotton market for some time past. Closing Saturday at 10.20, January opened Monday morning at 10.30 and ‘advanced rapidly,to 12.75. The mar- ket broke later to 11.80, which was the level at noon. The greatest jumps wero from 10.80 to 12,00, from 12.25 to 12 50, thence to 12.75. At the lat- ter point a New York concern, repre- senting big New England interests, commenced to sell right and left and alittle later a Greek, house also sold. ‘This stopped tho risé and the market sagged off to 11.50, ‘The air wae filled with rumors of cotton to be delivered from Fall River and shipments aro kriown to have been moade during the morning by express, guaranteed to be in New York in time for January delivery. About 30,000 bales January changed hands before noon. It does not follow that the long interest wes liquidated to this amount as the clique bought as well as sold, During the rest of the afternoon tho cotton market ruled quiet, with Janu- ary closed at 11.05 cennts, a net ad- vance of 85 points for the day, and the other months 1 higher to,3 lower. In accordance with the advance in January spot cotton sold at 12 cents, an advance of 1 8-8 for the day. | Earl Li Is Seriously 10, A dispatch to The North Ghina Daily Nows, of Shanghai, from Pekin, says that Li Hung Chang is suffering {rom fever and delirium, his life be- ing dispaired of.

Minnesota Senator Dissects Phil- ippine Policy From Demo~ cratic Standpoint. “In the senate, Monday, Mr. Towne, of Minnesota, signalized the‘last day of his membership with a speech which was tobe at once his maiden effort and his valedictory. He spoke on his resolution of last Friday for the immediate cessation of hostilities in the Philippines. ‘In an address nearly three hours in length, Senator Towne discussed the Philippine problem from the Democratic staudpoint. * At the opening of the session, Mr. Frye, the presiding officer, Iaid bofore the senate a cablegram from the diree- tory of the federal party in the Philip- pines, addressed to the senate and house, praying authorization for Presi- dent McKinley to establish civil gov- ernment in the Philippipes whenever ho deoms it opportune. “Mecessions to federal party by thousands in all parts of archipelage,” says the cablegram, “the attitaie of hitherto irreconcilable press ,and the seneral public opinion show that Ia- “> of party to bring pence will soon . ‘hed with success. Until now narties have attempted form- cians more or less question- ‘can sovereignty.

The Indigns were there holding a big feast, and refased~ to confer with the posse. Many of tho fall bloods who have been in the habit of wearing white man’s apparal were dressed in fall In- dian regalia. They were most bitter in their denunciation of the marshals who arrested Tom Tiger, captain of the insurgent light horse, who leit at dark in charge of United States 3far- shals Dean, Hogan and posse for Mus- kogee, as it is feared an attempt will be made to relense him.

To make things come your way, you must labor for it. IMPURE homes spread immorality worse than contagious disease. THIS is a hustling age and to succeed the Negro must get into the "push." REAL manly boys and courteous girls are the kind that should be cultivated. RACE loyalty and an aim for self-betterment along every line is a good field to cultivate. In all of our dealings we should act as to gain the friendship of everybody, that is consistently. As soon as the county commissioners call an election for ordinary, there will be a depth of clubs organized. MANY colored men are seeking the places now being held by colored men. Why don't they look for something elsewhere? "RAG TIME" music and senseless novels, are the forties of some of our young women, whose time should be more profitably spent. HUNDREDS of dollars, are being wasted weekly by our people in this city that could be saved, if they only had a little foresight. LET one colored man inaugurate a certain branch of business, and there will be many to follow, suit, even if in a weakly manner. HANGING a part is not the right thing for the race nor individuals to do, but rather "hanging together." We do not mean with a rope. With a strong commercial standing in every community where the Negro is populous, he will secure the necessary immunities from wrongs. All of us should be proud of the fact that we are not the worst people in the world, yet we should endeavor to make ourselves the very best ones in the world. The hope of the race is in the young boys and girls. We are responsible for their well-being. Would to God that all of us would wear this responsibility more heavily. The white man is ever on the alert thinking, and exerting every nerve to better himself along each line of endeavor. Why can't the black man imitate him in this respect? THE curse of any people is to have those around them who are tainted with selfishness and who are not willing to extend a helping hand to those who are in need of self betterment. A FOND mother, meeting us this week, commended highly our editorial in our last issue on our young people. This mother thinks as we do, but she says she acts it too. Would to God that there were hundreds of such mothers. The Savannah board of trade is in favor of ship-subsidy, a Republican measure. It shows that the business men are now being controlled by that which benefits the country, rather than to satisfy one's selfish feeling. MRS. NATION, the saloon smasher of Kansas, is being imitated. Mrs. Nation and her followers can carry on that kind of work in Kansas where the saloon has no standing, but they may get in serious trouble elsewhere. The outpouring of our people to the charity benefit for the hospital on Monday night, speaks volumes for them. It shows that they are being awaken to their sense of duty and are determined to support those institutions that are of benefit to the race. If an inexperienced boy had written the editorial in the Morning News on Thursday morning on "The Negro's Val-dictory in Congress," there would have been some possible excuse for it, but coming as it did from one who should know better, stamps it as being ridiculous. The editor of this journal generally takes a vague view of the Negro question, but this editorial is the most illogical one that we have seen recently. Tooby diagnoses the Negro question, he should study. It is shown that he may or if he had, his mind is THE PAN-AMERICAN. A GLANCE AT THE GREAT ENTERPRISE AND ITS PURPOSES. True Picture of Nineteenth Century Development Arranged In a Setting of Unsurpassed Beauty and Splendor at Pan-American Exposition. If one may judge by the presence of thousands of workmen at the grounds of the Pan-American Exposition and the wonderful progress they have made during the last few months, the Exposition will be opened in a condition of completeness upon the 1st of May next. For the benefit of those who, for any reason, have not been informed concerning the plans and purposes of this vast enterprise I will state that the Exposition grounds are in the northern part of the city of Buffalo and have an area of 550 acres. Buffalo, with its 400,000 population, is preparing the most artistic creation ever produced for the purposes of an exposition. The completed work will cost probably $100,000, exclusive of exhibits. The landscape upon which the buildings stand includes a part of one of the most beautiful parks in Buffalo or, in PAN-AMERKAN EXPOSITION fact, in the world. The will thus have the settling lawns and water features cost the city of Buffalo realars. The main Expositions are some 20 or more in numar arranged about a system courts some 33 acres in arrangement is such as the most exquisite decorative at the best trained artists of t may be able to produce. Space will permit only an enumeration of the principal buildings. These are: The Electric Tower, 375 feet high, which is to be the centerpiece of the most brilliant and novel electric illumination ever conceived; the Propyline, or architectural screen, at the northern end of the grounds; the Stadium, for sporting and athletic events; the Agriculture building, Manufactures and Liberal Arts building, Ethnology building, the Government group of three great buildings, the Midway restaurant building, Electricity building, the Machinery and Transportation buildings and Railroad Station, the Temple of Music, Graphic Arts, Horticulture, Mines, Forestry, Dairy, Ordnance, Service and other buildings, the Albright Gallery of Art, costing $400,000; the New York State building, costing $175,000, besides the state and foreign buildings and numerous other structures of beautiful and interesting design for a variety of purposes. The Midway at the Pan-American Exposition alone will cost more than some large expositions. It is estimated the cost of the Midway will be about $3,000,000, as it will have more than a mile of frontage closely built with the most picturesque structures conceivable and will contain between 30 and 40 entertainment features of most novel and interesting character. The purposes of the Exposition are not merely to give the people a most magnificent and attractive entertainment, but it will furnish the opportunity for every one to inform himself upon the progress of the nineteenth century. The Exposition is held for the purpose of celebrating the achievements of the western world during a century of unparalleled progress. It is distinctly a western world affair, all the governments of the western hemisphere having been invited to participate in all departments. Official responses have been made by every important government, state and dependency of the western world, and they are preparing to be represented by most creditable exhibits. The exhibits are classified in the following divisions: Electricity and electrical appliances; fine arts, painting, sculpture and decoration; graphic arts, typography, lithography, steel and copper plate printing, photo mechanical processes, drawing, engraving and bookbinding; liberal arts, education, engineering, public works, constructive architecture, music and drama, sanitation and hygiene; ethnology, archaeology, progress of labor and invention, isolated and collective exhibits; agriculture, agricultural implements, machinery and appliances, foods and their accessories, horticulture, viticulture, agriculture, forestry and forest products, fish, fisheries, fish products and apparatus for fishing; mines and metallurgy, machinery, manufactures, transportation, railways, vessels, vehicles, ordinance, exhibits from the Halwallan' Islands, Porto Rico, Guam, Tutulla and the Philippine Islands. The Exposition has the Indorsement not only of the state of New York, which appropriated $300,000, but of the national government, which appropriat- ed $500,000 for the purpose of being suitably represented upon this great occasion. The Exposition will continue six months and will furnish an opportunity such as rarely comes for the public to take note, at a glance, of the wonderful progress of the western world. It will be like a great university, at which the young and old will become for the time being students of western civilization. About 12,000 people have subscribed to the stock of the Exposition, and it is a public enterprise in the broadest sense of the term, the aim being to produce a magnificent spectacle to delight the artistic sense of all who attend and to present through the medium of an army of enterprising exhibitors a true picture of nineteenth century development. John G. Milburn, an eminent lawyer of Buffalo, is president, and the director general is William L. Buchanan, who was director of the departments of agriculture, live stock and forestry at the World's Columbian Exposition at Chicago and afterward for six years United States minister to the Argentine Republic. MARK BENNITT. "PAN-AM." RESTAURANTS. The Best of Service Will Be Provided. The needs of the inner man will be well attended to at the Pan-American Exposition to be held at Buffalo from May 1 to Nov. 1, 1001. At some expositions a great mistake has been made by not providing for good restaurants, where satisfactory meals could be obtained at reasonable prices. Either the food obtained has not been of good quality or prices charged have been exorbitant or the facilities in some particulars have been inadequate to the occasion. are will be good restaurants in dif- partals of the grounds of the Pan- ran Exposition, so that it will necessary for visitors to go out the grounds to secure a good well served, at a moderate price. are will be suited in the services for there will be places meals will be served on an the plan to suit the most fas- tistate and where prices will be on to those charged at restaurants in large cities. will be other places where the be cheap, but the food appea- healthful and the surround- .

There will also be a New England kitchen, a German restaurant, a Mexican restaurant, an Italian restaurant and other places where various kinds of refreshments will be served. EAGLES AT THE EXPOSITION. Remarkable Decoration For Ethnology Building at Buffalo. The building devoted to the Depart- ments of Ethnology and Archaeology at the Pan-American Exposition, which is now approaching completion, will have some remarkable sculptural de- corations. Among them will be gigantic figures of eagles and lions, which will be placed upon eight of the 16 panels SERVICE BUILDING. of the domes. These sculptures in staff will be conspicuous features of the architecture of this beautiful building. Models in clay are first made of the figures, and from them reproductions in staff are cast. The model of the eagle has just been completed. It is of colossal size. In the model nearly 10,000 pounds of clay have been used, and each bird, when cast in staff, will weigh fully two tons. The sculptured eagle will measure nearly 10 feet in height. Essays on Pan-American- A movement to interest the public school teachers and public school pupils in the Pan-American Exposition to be held at Buffalo next summer has been started. It originated in some of the public schools of Pennsylvania and is being taken up elsewhere as the wisdom of the plan becomes apparent. The idea is to have the teachers in the public schools write essays for various occasions of an educational character on the objects and aims of the Exposition and the bearing that such a display will have on the commerce of the world. A similar plan regarding the Paris Exposition was found quite successful and resulted in the attendance of a large corps of teachers at that fair. The plan contemplates also essays by pupils. It is believed that in this way much information can be spread regarding the benefits to be derived from cultivating closer relations with the different countries of this hemisphere and that it would result in greater intelligence among the public school teachers and pupils on this subject, as well as a larger attendance among this class of the population at the Exposition. West Indiana Will Attend Louis H. Ayme, United States Consul to Guadeloupe, says that in the West Indies the Pan-American Exposition is considered much more important than the Centennial Exposition of 1876 and that hundreds of natives are preparing to come to it. LAST year the emigration society with headquarters in Alabama, caused several of our people to sell their little belongings with the idea of going to Africa. They were deceived and are now nearly beggars. This society has done the same thing this year. A ship was to have sailed from this port on Wednesday. A number of misguided would-be passengers came to go, but there was no ship to take them. The society had already collected money for their passage. It is about time for our people to understand this society. If it is necessary for them to go to Africa, why then let them keep their money until they see that there is really a steamer to take them over, Bishop Turner is to be blamed for the deception of these people more than any one else. MASONIC COLUMN. The new King of England is the most prominent living Freemason, being grand master of the grand lodges of England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales, and is also grand prior of the Order of Knight Templars in England and grand patron of the Ancient Accepted Scottish Right of Freemasonry in the United Kingdom, having received the thirty third and last degree in that branch of Freemasonry. For more than thirty-two years he has been identified with the Masonic Order, and Masonry everywhere receives his hearty and unqualified support. His presence at important Masonic functions is always sought for and usually with success. Like his grandfather, the Duke of Kent, Albert Edward was admitted into the fraternity under a foreign constitution. He was initiated into the mysteries of Freemasonry by His Majesty the King of Sweden while on a visit to Stockholm, in December, 1868. In September 1869, the Grand Lodge of England conferred upon him the rank of past grand master, and, in December of the same year he became grand master being invested with the insignia of his Masonic rank by the grand master the Earl of Zetland at a quarterly communication. In the previous month on motion of the Duke of Leinster, grand master of the Grand Lodge of Ireland the title of the order in Ireland, was conferred upon His Royal Highness by the Grand Lodge of Ireland his investiture taking place at a grand communication held in Dublin Aug. 14 1871. He was subsequently elected worshipful master of Royal Alpha Lodge No. 16 in Willis Rooms London and later worshipful master of Apollo University Lodge No. 357, Oxford. HEALTH UNDER SOUTHERN SKIES.

The union of the Grand Conclave of Masonic Knights Templar of England and the Grand Conclave of High Knights Templar of Ireland was consumated in April 1873. by the installation of His Royal Highness as grandmaster of the Order in England, Ireland and Wales, and dependencies of the British crown which rank he has held since that time.

Maxwell of Decatur Ga. but formerly of this city, arrived here on Saturday last. No one is better thought of and more beloved by the masses than this modest gentleman whose unselfish work for others, is a monument that will be more lasting than stone. The citizens of Savannah hold him near and dear to them and wish for him success along all lines. The Y. G. E. social club held its annual election on Wednesday evening the 16th instant.

Recently a large number of prominent citizens have been elected on the board of trustees. New rules will be adopted at the meeting next week and the name will be changed. This meeting will be held at the annex of the First Congregational Church on Wednesday night next at 8 o'clock, at which time every member of the board of trustees is expected to be present.

Harris $25c, Miss Louise Washington $25, Mr. Jaycey Harris $50c, Mrs. Eve Fuller $25c. The Question Ably Discussed by Rev. Maxwell: On Tuesday evening last, the First Congregational Church was attended by a large and representative class of citizens to listen to the address by Rev. L. B. Maxwell on the "Educational System of Georgia." The meeting was conducted by the pastor of the church, Rev. J. W. Whittaker. Prayer was offered by Rev. J. W. Roberts. The speaker was introduced and he told the audience that he would not treat them with any flights of oratory or say any thing to make them laugh, but would deal in plain facts and figures. He did not stick to his declaration for he grew eloquent at times and did make some humorous allusions. He had the audience with him from beginning to end and he wearied no one although he used many figures to prove his contention. The figures he used were not of his making, but were taken from the records of the state. Mr. Maxwell refuted the false charge that the white people of the state are paying for the schooling of the Negroes, and brands as false the Indicous assertion of Senator Bell, of the Bell bill fame, who stated to the legislative that he had seen white women and girls working in the fields with cockspurs in their stockings, for the purpose of educating lazy Negroes. By his figures, and the figures on record, he proved that it was the black ones who are laboring to educate others. He showed that the Negroes of this state are not receiving their full quota of the educational fund and are thereby being unjustly dealt with. In the matter of higher education he declared and he gave proofs, that Georgia has given not one penny. That the Georgia Industrial School is being conducted by money given by the Federal government, and that Georgia has not only not given anything, but has taken from the Negroes a part of the fund appropriated by the national government. He alluded to the early establishment of the State College for Negroes and how Georgia was compelled to do so by Secretary Noble because if it had not, the appropriation for the higher education of the whites would have been held up. Mr. Maxwell stated that every white man spoken to would admit that they are paying the tax for the Negro's education. They say so simply because they do not know the facts, and these facts they should know. Even Senator Bell was astonished when informed about the state of affairs. He put to rest the assertion that education does not benefit the Negro. He challenged proof to show if anywhere an educated Negro has ever been found guilty at, any time of any serious charge except in one instance, a comparison that no other race can make. He touched upon the matter of the Negro's wealth and showed that he is accumulatnig. He spoke in high terms of the many white-friends of the Negro and declared that there are many others who would deal justly with the questions that effect the race whenever they are properly informed. He finished by giving excellent admonition to his hearers. Every one that heard the address endorsed it heartily and commended the speaker highly for his labor in securing the facts and presenting them in such a convincing manner. Rev. Maxwell added much to his already high esteem in which he is held here, and every one feels that he is doing an unselfish work that will reap its reward by accomplishing that which is being aimed at. THE TRIBUNE would have taken pleasure in publishing the address in full or in part but it will be published in full, with another section that he did not speak on. It will be published by the citizens of Atlanta for free distribution. He has another address on "Lynching" which is also in press. This is being done by the citizens of Macon. Many have expressed themselves on having Mr. Maxwell return and deliver the latter address in the near future. A Financial Success. The ten nights bazaar of St. Philips A. M. Er church, West Broad and Charles street, closed last night. It was quite a financial success. The members of the committee worked as they never did before to make it so, and the church is truly indebted to them for their arduous labors. The attendance each night, except one, was gratifying, and showed that St. Philips has lost none of its friends. On Monday night next at 8 o'clock at the Ladies Exchange of the church, the prizes to the successful society, lodge, club and company will be awarded. A representative from each of these institutions that attended is requested to be present on the above occasion, and the public is cordially invited to attend the presentation of the prizes. Refreshments will be served. The church desires to extend hearty thanks to the public and the various lodges, societies, clubs and the military that assisted in making the bazaar a success. Ford's opera house was as crowded as it rarely ever be, on Monday night last. The occasion being the benefit concert and soiree for the McKane hospital. It was a representative and appreciative gathering. The program begun with an overture by Muddleton's band, followed by the chorus, "Bell Buoy" by the West End Quintette. Mrs. R. Coston Smith's solo, "unanswered" was the best. "The Huntsman Horn" was sung by Mrs. Ella Davis, and those who enjoy the violin by a master had an opportunity in "Sounds from home" by Mr. W. H. Furber. "I can not tell why I love you but I do," was well sung by Mr. Reed and company. Miss Etta McClure's solo "The Merry Birds" was good for one of her years, and the most musical piece was the duet, "See the pale, moon" by Misses Mittie E. Grant, and Clara Rogers. Miss G.A. Heard's rendition of "Blossom" was effective. Mr. Robinson's company of sixteen young ladies under the command of Capt. Leila Jones elicited applause. The grand chorus under the direction of Prof. J. C. Ross was one of the main features. Williams and Walker ragtime "Dem Ego-goo eyes" sung by Miss Nellie E. Shekells was well applauded, and being encored she repeated the chorus to delight of the lovers of ragtime. Mr. Chas F. Waters with his tenor voice rendered Petrie's "Sail Ho" Miss Gertie M. Carey, sweetly sung "Love will find a way." In his own inimical manner. Mr. John F. Thompson sang a popular air which caught the fancy of all and was well applauded. He is the best initiative songster in the city. "An Appeal" was affectively rendered by Miss Mamie L. Whitmire. She showed marked ability in the rendition and received liberal applause. The West End Quintette's chorus "Dinah," caught the ear of all. They were the favorites and were well applauded. Those who are acquainted with the fine singing of Miss Nettie A. Houston, were disappointed on her non-appearance caused by being indisposed. The Forest City Glee Club's part on the program was volunteered, but the music given was exceptionally good. The entire program was carried out with that minuteness that speaks well for the managers and those who assisted. It was under the auspices of the physicians of the city and every one of them worked hard to make it the success it was. A handsome amount was realized which will be applied to making the hospital a modern one in every respect. The Young Ladies Pleasure Club gave their first social on Wednesday evening last at Morse's hall. It was a pleasant affair and every one had a good time.

It is reported by some foreign authority on fashions that dyeing the hair is entirely out of style, dark, natural tints being the mode once again. Change in the way of doing the hair is one of the great secrets of success in dress, providing the style is always in harmony with the shape of the head and contour of the face. There is an evident effort to lower the chignon to the nap of the neck, but this mode is not readily accepted by all women, so for the present the hair is arranged high on the head for evening dress, and a little below the crown for ordinary wear. Many young girls adopt the low style of hair dressing, which is very pretty with the new gypsy hat. Another point in fashionable hair dressing is bringing the locks well down on the forehead, either parted at one side or in a soft pompadour falling over the ears. The decorations are the varying point in hair dressing for evening, and anything between diadem diamond combs and a simple rose seems to be permissible. Diamond pins in circles, crescents and oblong shapes are worn at the back with a comb above, and side combs and an ornamental bow in addition. In fact, this craze for decoration is so often overdone that the later fancy for one or two roses is a pretty relief from the barbaric tendencies of the day. The new gold roses are charming in the dark hair, and some of the colors are quite as beautiful. Jim Fisk's Flagship Stripped of her ornaments and be reft of her old-time splendor, says the Providence Journal, the once magnificent, new, stanch, commodious and palatial steamer Providence, fingship of "Jim" Fisk's fleet, and one of the queens of the sound, now lies at the Lonsdale wharf, to be the home of rats and slowly rot away. The old steamboat came to this port yesterday and made her last dock. Unable to compete with the latter day floating hotels that float so fast over the green waters between Long Island and the Connecticut shore, the old Providence has crawled off to die, and her last days will be spent in this city that gave her name.

The Duke of Manchester, who practises what he preaches, says that foreign noblemen marry American girls because they are beautiful, witty, graceful, high-bred, original, innocent, audacious, intellectual and practical. That is to say, because they are the sum of all the virtues. But isn't it odd that practically all of the girls sought by these foreign gentry are rich? There are dead loads of American girls who have all the qualities enumerated by the big duke, and yet do not contract foreign alliances. With few exceptions, foreign noblemen are attracted only to rich American girls. Of course, it may be only a coincidence, but it suggests all sorts of idle speculations.—St. Louis Post-Dispatch.

His face is very handsome and noble-looking and impresses you as being the true index of a kindly and lovable nature. He is of a quiet disposition, and talks very little. When seated in his saddle he looks an ideal, natural soldier. Still Unconvinced. Benedict—It is said that most of the people who commit suicide are unmarried. How are you going to get around that?

For 23 months I could not walk a stop, and I never expected to walk or work again. I was completely helpless and suffered the most horrible agony. "No man in these parts ever suffered as I did. I took everything that I ever heard of, but never found anything that did me the alightest good until I began the use of Dr. Greene's Nervura blood and nerve remedy. "And now comes the most wonderful part of all. In a shower the splendid medicine made me completely well. It is the greatest medicine of my life. It comes from a condition of utter helplessness and constant agony to perfect health. It saved my ability to work which was entirely gone. I am now entirely well and strong, and I owe my health and my life to Dr. Greene's Nervura blood and nerve remedy. I advise everybody to use it." High Lights. The Nicaragua Canal Oulte n Contrast.
