FUNSTON TALKS WAR In Banquet Speech Kansan Fires Some Sizzling Shot. GUEST NEW YORK LOTUS CLUB Goes Into Details Regarding the Cause of Hostilities In the Philippines.—Raps "Traitors" In America. Brigadier General Frederick Funston was the guest of honor at a dinner given Saturday night at the Lotus Club In New York City. More than 300 members of the club were present. General Funston made a speech, in which he said: "When Manila was surrendered to Dewey and Merritt some thousands of Spaniards were in the city. In the eyes of the world these people looked to us for protection, and to have turned them over to the uncontrollable mob known as 'Aguinaldo's army' would have been the blackest page of American history; one that a thousand years of repentance and restitution would not have satisfied. General Funston then told in minute detail of the instances that led to war-fire between the American army and the insurgents, and during the narrative told of the shooting of several gentries by Philippo scouts who had passed the lines. He said that on the opening of the battle between the army and the insurgents, Major Metcalf, of the First Nebraska regiment, had come to his quarters, and said: "The dance has begun." "What dance?" I asked, and Major Metcalf replied: "Go out and hear it," and I went out and heard the puttering of rifle balls, and that was the beginning of the war over there." General Funston then said: "All sorts of men get into the army. There are good, bad and indifferent, but I believe that 95 per neck, of the American soldiers are a brave and humane lot of men. The other 5 percent, who have been writing letters to newspapers, have ornamented the inside of a grog house for a longer time than they have distinguished themselves in the field." "All of those men who have fallen since December, 1900, have been the victim of a lot of misinformed and misguided people here in the United States. It is perfectly proyer for us to have all sorts of opinions as to what we should do with the Philippine islands, but for heaven's sake, let us keep them to ourselves until every square inch of territory recognizes the sovereignty of the United States." General Funston then gave many examples to show that the Pilipino leaders were not patriots. He mentioned the slaying of Antonio Luna, who was ordered slain by Aguinaldo. General Funston said that Aguinaldo had told him in regard to Luna's death: "I had him killed simply because he would have been dictator instead of myself." "Would you imagine George Washington doing anything like that?" asked General Funsten. The general said there was not one of the so-called Filipino patriot who could not be convicted of murder if he was tried by a jury. He declared that there had never been a war in the world's history where the soldiers had shown such humanity as had the American troops in the Philippine islands. Traitors In America. He then told of twenty-four American soldiers who had joined the Filipinos and who were afterward captured and executed as traitors, and then said: "There are many men in the United States who did more with their mouths and minds to aid the insurgents than did these poor men with their Krag-Jorgensen rifles. I would rather see those men hanged for treason than to see one of the soldiers dead on the field of battle." The general then declared that the Filipinos could not be classed with the Cubans, and he said that if the United States could now leave the Philippine islands there would be half a dozen different kinds of civil wars there, and that the world would hold the United States responsible for them. The general said he talked with Aguinaldo on their way back to Manila on the Vicksburg, and that Aguinaldo told him that neither Dewey nor any one else had promised him anything, but that he and his people had faith in the Americans. The texile workers in the King mill, of Augusta, Ga., have demanded a 10 per cent increase in all departments and ask for a reply on March 17. The mill management declares a raise impossible, and a strike may follow. The Savannah FOR SOUTHERN-EDUCATION. Association Is Organized In New York City—A Million Dollars Available. Announcement was made Friday that there had been organized in New York city an association to promote southern education, to be known as the general education board, and that more than a million dollars had been placed at the disposal of the board of trustees. The underlying principle of the association is stated to be the recognition of the fact that the people of the southern states are earnestly engaged in the promotion of public education, and that in this effort they should receive generous aid; and to this end, and in pursuance of this and kindred objects, the association will seek gifts, large and small, from those in sympathy with its plans. The board of trustees is as follows: W. H. Baldwin, Jr., president of the Long Island Railway Company; Dr. J. L. M. Curry, executive officer of the Peabody and Slater funds, former minister to Spain and ex-member of congress; F. T. Gates, formerly secretary of the National Education Society; Dr. Daniel C. Gillman, formerly president Johns Hopkins university, new president Carnegie institute, Washington; Morris K. Jesup, trustee and treasurer of the Slater board; Robert C. Ogden, president of the board of trustees of Hampton institute and president of the Southern Education Board; Walter H. Page, George Foster Peabody and Albert Shaw. SHAME ON YOU, EDDIEI Preacher In London Scores King For Setting Bad Example. A London dispatch says: There was a striking scene in the City Temple Friday when, during the course of his sermon, the Rev Joseph Parker administered a pointed rebuke to King Edward, which was loudly applauded by the congregation. Having alluded to public-houses as "trap doors of hell," Dr. Parker referred to the king's secret brewing of beer while visiting Lord Burton. "Pray for me," said the divine, "that I may speak delicately, loyally. If the king' brews beer what can be wrong in the subject drinking it? The king is likely to be imitated by others. "If the king goes to a Sunday concert, as he did recently, he deals a deadly blow to the Englishman's Sunday. The king cannot attend a nonconformist place of worship, but he can go to a Sunday concert." This remark called forth cries of "Shame!" and Dr. Parker continued: "If the king, who is the head of the church and defender of the faith, can violate the English Sunday, what can the people do but follow in his steps? I would rather give a great sum in gold than appear to be disloyal; but I cannot be disloyal to Christ, and it is better that these things shall be said." ALICE STAYS AT HOME. President Decides That His Daughter Cannot Attend Coronation. Miss Alice Roosevelt, daughter of the president, will not attend the coronation of King Edward. While the white house officials decline to discuss the matter, it was stated by those in position to know that the president had decided that the reason why Miss Roosevelt will not attend the coronation is because it has been found practically impossible for her to go simply as a young American girl traveling privately in the household of Special Ambassador Reid. When Miss Roosevelt's status became a matter of international discussion the president first considered the advisability of cancelling the visit, but not until it was found that an invitation to visit the emperor and empress of Germany was on the way to America was it decided that, in view of the extreme youth of Miss Roosevelt and the international conditions as well as courtesies she would be called on to meet, the English visit and all its delights would have to be relinquished. Charlottesville Public Building. The senate committee on public buildings and grounds has authorized a favorable report on a new public building at Charlottesville, Va., to cost $100,000. House Republica Have Third "Confab" Regarding Concealsal The third conference of republican members of the house of representatives to consider the question of Cuban tariff concessions was held Thursday night in the hall of the house, but nothing was accomplished. About 125 members were present, and great interest was manifested, owing to the sharp division which has occurred between the supporters of the ways and means proposition for 20 per cent reciprocity, as put forward by Chairman Payne and the rebate plan proposed by Tawney, of Minnesota. SAVANNAH. GA.. SATURDAY. MARCH 15. 1902. SKIPPED TO CANADA Gaynor and Greene are Enjoying Freedom in Quebec. THEY WILL FIGHT EXTRADITION It Is Belleved, However, that Alleged Conspirators Will Be Promptly Surrendered By British Authorities. Colonel John F. Gaynor and his partner, B. D. Green, charged with conspiracy to defraud the United States government and wanted for hearing in Savannah, Ga., by the federal authorities, are registered at the Chateau Frontenac, according to a New York Herald dispatch from Quebec. They arrived there two days ago and Mrs. Gaynor joined her husband Monday. Colonel Gaynor, in response to questions, would only say: "My name is registered properly at this hotel. Any one having business with me will know where to find me." Colonel Gaynor is well known in Quebec, where he has extensive business interests. Notwithstanding the statement made by Colonel Gaynor Tuesday that he might return to the United States on the 17th, both he and Captain Greene have secured the services of distinguished counsel, who, in the past have handled some famous fights against extradition proceedings in the Quebec province. They have retained to look after their interests Hon. Jules Tessier, member of the local legislature, ex-speaker of the legislative assembly and who some years ago acted in a like capacity for J. Eno, of New York, and L. A. Taschereau, also a member of the local legislature and law partner of Hon. Charles Fitzpatrick, minister of justice of Canada. Knox to Take Action. A Washington special says: The department of Justice has not yet made formal application upon the department of state for the extradition of Messrs. Greene and Gaynor, who fled from the jurisdiction of the federal court at Savannah and have been discovered at Quebec, Canada, but such application will probably be made at once. The officials of the department of Justice have been examining into the extradition laws and treaties upon the subject and announce the determination to use every means to bring these two men to trial. Announcement was made Tuesday that it is not intended the men shall be allowed to escape trial if it is within the power of the government to secure possession of them. It is believed by the authorities that even if it should be discovered that there is any flaw in the extradition treaties or any point in which they do not apply to the present case, that Gaynor and Greene would be promptly surrendered by the British authorities on the general principle of comity between friendly governments. Nobody in Washington seems able to fathom the reasons which impelled these men to take this unlooked-for step to escape trial at this time. DAVIS' SLAVE HONORED. Roosevelt Appoints Well Known Mississippi Negro to Office. It is a strange fact that the once slave of Jefferson Davis, I. T. Montgomery, has now one of the most important federal offices in the state of Mississippi, having been appointed by President Roosevelt to the office of receiver of public money. Montgomery is one of the most influential negroes in the state, and the only colored mayor of a southern city, having been elected mayor of the town of Mt. Bayou, Miss. Montgomery is a typical old ante-bellum negro and always speaks in the highest terms of his former master. Strike For Eight-Hour Day. Carriage makers, machinists, matrress makers, indoor wire workers and fuel-handlers in Denver, Colo., are out on strike for an eight-hour day and union wages. WHAT BREEZE SAID. Bank Official Admits That He Got Benefit of Funds. In the Breeze-Dickerson bankruptcy case, in progress at Asheville, N. C., George M. Coffin, the acting comproller of the currency when the bank failed, testified Friday that the defendant, President Breeze, had admitted to him shortly before the doors of the bank closed that he, Breeze, had gotten the benefit of the bank's money to the amount of $114,000, and that Cashier Penland got the benefit of $80,000, and Director Dickerson got the benefit of $60,000. Tribune. FOR NELLIE CROPSEY MURDER. Grand Jury at Elizabeth City, North Carolina, Finda True Bill Against James Wilcox. At Elizabeth City, N. C., Tuesday morning, the grand jury found a true bill for murder in the first degree against James Wilcox, charged with killing his sweetheart, Miss Nellie Cropsy. Miss Cropsy was the beautiful daughter of Judge W. H. Cropsy, of Elizabeth City, who mysteriously disappeared from her home the night of of November 20 last, after a stormy interview with the man who is now charged with having caused her death. Preparations are now being made for the trial, which will, in all probability, on account of the importance and the great interest in the result, be the first case on the docket of the court which convenes next Monday. Every one in the town of Elizabeth City and the country around is mishfesting the livestest interest in the case, and it is more than likely that the people of Elizabeth City will be called upon to entertain within her hospitable homes the largest crowd of visitors that they have ever known. Hotel accommodations have already been engaged by those who, from motives of business or curiosity, will attend the trial. What will be the result of the trial? Will Wilcox be proven guilty of the crime? What defence will be made? These and other questions. In connection with the case are now being eagerly discussed by the residents of Elizabeth City and the surrounding country. The result of the trial cannot, of course, at this time be even forecast. Public gentiment, however, is against the prisoner, principally on account of his seeming indifference to the matter, which at the time of his arrest was such as to work the people to such a stage that threats of lynching, which were freely indulged in, were kept from being put into effect only by the intervention of cooler judgment. As to what defence the prisoner will make, it is more than probable that he will attempt that to prove that he left the girl some time prior to her disappearance. The only statement made by the prisoner since his arrest was that he left the girl crying on the porch of her home, and that she was still crying when he passed out of the front gate of the yard quite a distance from the house. What caused the unfortunate girl to weep, Wilcox will not say. The night Miss Cropsy disappeared from her home she was last seen alive by members of the family when she accompanied Wilcox, who had called, to the front door to bid him good night. What transpired after that no one, except perhaps Wilcox, knows. It is known that the two quarreled, and that Miss Cropsy was never seen again until five weeks later when her lifeless body was found floating in the waters of the Pasquotank river, almost in front of her home. PRINCE HENRY GOES HOME. Salled Form New York 'tuesday Afternoon on the Deutschland. Prince Henry of Prusia sailed from New York on board the Hamburg-American liner Deutschland Tuesday afternoon. His last day in America was spent entirely on board the Deutschland, but it was well filled with pleasing incidents. The prince breakfasted early and about 10 o'clock began to receive official farewells from representatives of Germany in this country and those of the United States government. Mayor Low was also a caller, and the prince, in bidding him farewell, gave him a hint that he had some intention of returning to America for a second trip. The prince, in reply to the mayor's expressions, said: "I thank the citizens of New York for all their kindness to me, which I appreciate deeply. If I should return to America, I should feel, when I reached New York, that I was once more at home." ENGLAND NOT DISMAYED. Reverses In South Africa Only Stiffens Backbone of British IAe Expressions of steadfastness have succeeded those of humiliation which were universally heard in London Monday on the publication of the news of General Methuen's disaster. There is little disposition to minimize the incident, but everywhere is heard the determination to maintain the tradition that blows serve to strengthen and stiffen British resolution. Lord Rosebery, struck the popular note Tuesday in a speech before the Glasgow students. He admitted that it was heart-breaking after all the expenditure of life, time and money, but he added: "It will not dishearten us. We have got to see this thing through. We must take the blows which fortune deals us with equanimity, showing ourselves worthy of better fortunes." LONG OUT; MOODY IN Resignation of Secretary of Navy Handed to President. ÂCT CAUSED LITTLE SURPRISE Resignation of Retiring Secretary Goes Into Effect on the First of May—Something of the New Secretary. A Washington special says: The third change in the cabinet occurred Monday when Secretary Long handed his resignation in a graceful letter, it being accepted equally felicitous by the president. The change was made complete by the selection of Representative William Henry Moody, of Fifth congressional district of Massachusetts, as Mr. Long's successor in the navy department, effective May 1. This change has been expected for some time. Mr. Long intended to retire at the beginning of the late President McKinley's second term, but he consented to remain until certain lines of policy in which he was involved were more satisfactorily arranged. Then when President Roosevelt succeeded, though anxious to return to private life—for Secretary Long will never again enter public life—a strong feeling of loyalty toward Mr. Roosevelt induced the secretary to defer his retirement until it was convenient for the president to make a change. The resignation of Secretary Long did not occasion any great surprise in Washington official circles, as it had been generally understood that the secretary-of-the navy would resign as soon as the Schley-Sampson affair was brought to a conclusion. In fact, it was announced several weeks ago by the secretary himself that he would not much longer remain in the official family of the president. Mr. Moody will early, visit the office of the navy and make himself acquainted with the details of the office. Not even rumor his indicated any changes in the conduct of the office or the displacement of any employees. When Mr. Long entered the cabinet originally he was an active member of the firm of Hemingway &-Long, a well known legal firm of Boston. He always maintained a silent connection with the concern, and will again become an active partner. Selection of Moody Approved. Representative Moody has been overwhelmed with telegrams from all parts of the country, each congratulating him and expressing the belief that he will prove worthy of the high office. Members of both parties express confidence in his ability and sincere regret that the house of representatives will lose him. He is one of the ablest and most popular members. William Henry Moody, republican, of Haverhill, was born in Newberry, Mass., December 23, 1853; he was graduated at Phillips Academy. Andover, Mass., 1852, and from Harvard University in 1876; is a lawyer by profession; was district attorney from the eastern district of Massachusetts from 1890 to 1895; was elected to the Fifty-fourth congress to fill a vacancy, and to the Fifty-fifth and Fifty-sixth congresses, and re-elected to the Fifty-seventh congress, receiving 18,328 votes, to 6,725 for Daniel N. Crowley, democrat, 2,725 for Albert L. Gillen, democratic socialist, and 778 for Ernest C. Peabody, socialist labor. COMBINE IS ATTACKED. Under President's Direction Suit Is Begun Against Railroads. By direction of the attorney general of the United States, a bill in equity was filed at St. Paul, Minn., Monday in the circuit court of the United States for the district of Minnesota in the case of the United States, complainant, against the Northern Securities Railway Company, the Northern Pacific Railway Company and others, defendants, to test the legality of the alleged combination or merger of the two roads and others named in the bill. QUAKERS ENTERTAIN HENRY. Wind-Up of Prince's American Tour Takes Place in Philadelphia. Prince Henry of Prussia finished his American tour in Philadelphia Monday and for the brief space of five hours was the guest of the municipality. His reception was most cordial and his welcome heartfelt. Broad street station contained probably the largest crowd in its history and the first appearance of the prince as he alighted from the private car "Columbia" was the signal for an ovation which was continuous as long as the distinguished visitor remained in sight of the multitudes. NO 23. GAYNOR AND GREEN SKIP OUT. Fall to Show Up In Court and Their Bonds Are Forfeited—Hot Roast By Judge Speer. In the United States district court at Savannah, Ga., Friday morning Judge Emory Speer estreated the bonds of Benjamin D. Greene and John F. Gaynor, charged with conspiracy against the United States and bench warrants, have been issued for their arrest. William T. and Ed B. Gaynor were in court and were arraigned on the new indictment recently found against them and the others. A plea of abatement was presented by their attorneys. The bonds of Greene and John F. Gaynor are for $40,000 each. Greene's bond is signed by James D. Leary, of New York, and Gaynor's by William B. Kirk, of Syracuse. Judge Speer took occasion to announce from the bench his disapproval of the manner in which the missing defendants have treated the case against them. He said they had been trifling with justice. In estricting the Greene-Gaynor bond Judge Speer said: "This is a case which calls for the prompt and unremitting exercise of the executive powers of the government until these recalcitrant defendants, D. B. Greene and John F. Gaynor are brought to the bar of this court for trial. "They have been indicted by two successive grand juries for alleged frauds upon the public treasury of the most stupendous character. If the charges in the indictment are true, their speculations amount to hundreds of thousands, perhaps millions, of dollars. "They were first indicted more than two years ago, and after successfully delaying the execution of the process of a court of the United States and placing an enormous cost upon the government in the attempt to enforce its authority, they were finally compelled to appear for trial at this term of court. The term has lasted for nearly a month. It has been almost entirely devoted to the laborious and careful disposition of dilatory or preliminary objections interposed by their counsel, and when finally ordered to appear and plead, as they were bound to do by their bond, in apparent disregard of authority of the law, they are now fugitives. "They are both, I learn, men of fine intelligence. They, as well as do their counsel here and elsewhere, fully understand their duty to be present. The government officers have been at great labor and the government itself at great expense in preparing for their trial. Indeed, the conduct of those men, unexplained with regards to their non-appearance, is an outrage upon public justice. From the inception of their efforts to delay or defeat the trial upon indictment for the serious charge preferred against them, this court has done all in its power to enforce its regular process to bring about the speedy and impartial trial contemplated by the constitution in the usual and orderly manner established, not only by the statutes, but by the time honored precedents of the United States courts. "The case dragged its slow length along before the commissioner and district jury in New York and was thence carried to the supreme court of the United States and, after final judgment of that high tribunal, the accused were compelled to come here for trial. Its most baneful effect is the example it offered of the paralysis of the law. "These men are presumed to be innocent of the crime charged. My remarks exclusively relate to the manner in which the process of this court has been held up and arrested—and the unexplained contempt on the part of these persons of its orders." EXPLOSION KILLS THREE. Saw Mill Boiler Bursts, Employees Meet Death and Building Burns. The boiler of Oakes' sawmill in Fernandina, Fla., exploded Friday morning killing three negro employees and slightly injuring Gordon Hall, the manager. The mill and contents were totally destroyed by fire. PREPARING TO EVACUATE CUBA. Secretary Root Orders Governor Wood to Report In Washington. Secretary Root has ordered Governor Wood at Havana to report in Washington at his earliest convenience for the purpose of conferring with the president and secretary of war in regard to the necessary steps to be taken for winding up the affairs of the military government in Cuba and the establishment of the Cuban republic. It is believed in Washington that the transfer of government can be effected by May 1. THE visit of Prince Henry has caused the knitting of Germany and the United States. It was Thomas Jefferson who said: "preach a crusade against ignorance," and "Above all things I hope the education of the common people will be attended to." THE Boers are getting quite aggressive. It is hoped that the British will soon overpower them. For humanity's sake they should be defeated and the country governed by the British. ONE MILLION dollars has been placed at the disposal of a committee to be used for educational purposes in the south. The Negro will come in for a share of it, and even with the training that the ignorant whites will receive, will cause them to be more liberal in thought towards the Negro; thus he will be doubly benefitted. The advent of a large number of Negro physicians in our midst is the main cause of the diminishing of the death rate among our people. Before their advent this death rate had become real alarming, but they have quieted that alarm, and no one can gainsay their usefulness. These physicians should receive the hearty support of our people. A WELL stocked and managed drug store on West Broad street, or in fact on any other popular street in the city would be a paying investment. Why can't all of the physicians act on this idea and give the people a much needed enterprise? It is needed; it should be had and with a small capital the doctors can establish it. SOME weeks ago THE TRIBUNE announced that Kentucky had presented a candidate for Register of the Treasury. There were several others who were itching for the place, but the President has said emphatically that he is satisfied with the services of Hon. Judson·W. Lyons and will continue him in the position. It was just what we predicted. SHALL Savannah's large colored population continue longer without more enterprises of a business nature? Our boys and girls should be prepared for. All of us can not become farmers, nor lawyers, ministers, doctors, school teachers and dress makers. Make an opening for them in the commercial field. We can not expect the other race to do so; therefore let us with our might prepare for them in this field. FULTON County has a reformatory under control of the County, but for white boys only. In the reformatory there are only eight boys confined. The Negro boys are not allowed to be sent there, but instead placed among hardened criminals. The reformatory question is being agitated here and from the present outlooks one will be established. In the establishing of it, it is hoped that there will be no discrimination. The Negro boys need reformation as much so as any other class of boys. Establish the reformatory, but do not exclude the black boys. THE TRIBUNE never tire speaking about the worthy institutions of the race and inducing our people to do likewise. There is fostered by us no worthier institution than the Charity Hospital. All of our physicians and a number of citizens are interested and have done much to place it in its present excellent condition. To be convinced of this fact, those of our citizens who have not done so, should go out and inspect it, and they will find out that everything that we have said about the institution is correct. Every Negro in the county should give something for its support. Many are working assiduously for it now, but others should follow suit. THE members of the Board of Education, of Chatham County are men of large affairs and interested in the best welfare of the county. They can not afford to do anything that would in any manner thwart the progress of the County, and in fact we hope that they will not willfully do so. THE TRIBUNE hereby call their attention to a very important matter, that if allowed to be continued, would not redown to the best interest of the county: From the last school census there are in the city 6,684 Negro children, out of this number only 2,330 are en- moved in the schools, leaving 4,354. Out of these last numbers, less than five hundred of them attend, the various private schools of the city and elsewhere, still leaving nearly 4,000 of them without school facilities. The parents of about seventy-five per cent of these children are unable to procure for them a place for schooling, thereby causing them to grow up in ignorance, which is the foundation of crime. It behooves each member of the board of education to consider this matter seriously. They should feel, as they already know, that in any community where there are so many untutored ones, it will be effected accordingly. The white children are properly cared for. This is a fact that we are proud of; but will these white children be benefited to any great extent if such a large per cent of the Negro children are allowed to grow up in ignorance? For only a few thousand dollars this entire situation could be made clearer and the community greatly benefited. Secure a piece of property in the growing section of the city and erect thereon, a commodious building. The city owns several available lots notably on Gwinnett and Cemetery streets, why can not several of those be donated for the purpose and a modern building erected thereon? It is hoped that the board of education will consider seriously this matter and take action at a no distant day. Among Our Exchanges. The Negro race is gradually but surely becoming assimilated to the American institutions. This due in the main, however, to the Negro's imitative tendencies, which lead him to adopt his neighbor's traits, habits. Hence, the clamor for his rights of citizenship under the American Constitution—National Leader. The laboring men and women among us should form the habit of carrying with them an extra garment so that when their work hours are over their clothing may be changed. No one should desire to make it unpleasant for others. Think of it; suppose you were dressed in your best clothes and a laboring man, dirty, and wet with perspiration (the sickening order arising thereof) should seat himself in a car near you would you not feel offended? We must respect ourselves if we demand respect of others. Colored Citizen. At an election of officers of the Central Labor Union, Wm. O. Burke, a colored man, was elected treasurer. The other officers were re-elected. The chairman, Robert Kopp said that the Knights of Labor had been the first to concede that the colored men were entitled to the same privileges-in unions as white men. The Knights of Labor to which this body belongs, knows neither creed, race nor color. If the president of the United States can take a colored man to dine with him the Central Labor can surely have a colored man for treasurer.—Philadelphia Tribune. The Bishops and general officers of the A.M. E. Zion church, will visit Memphis Sunday. It is a pity that the 40,000 Negroes who claim this as their home have no enterprises where our boys and girls of talent and ability are employed and of which they could show our visitors. Our city banks contain thousands of dollars belonging to our people; the same is being used to give employment to white boys and girls, while ours, must shoot craps or go to the houses of ruin. We have not even a dry goods, millinery, or a shoe store, leaving, out other enterprises of equal importance, although we spend $400,000 per month in this city.—Colored Citizen. A little less than two weeks ago Cal. Cox a white man killed Noah Roebuck a colored man near Owingville, Ky., because he refused to give a chew of tobacco. It was unprovoked murder, for which Cox was promptly indicted and four days later was tried, convicted and sentenced to a life term in the penitentiary. When it is considered that he was of a good family such a quick vindication of the law is a little surprising and indicates a wholesome regard for law in that community. Such a sentiment in all parts of the state would exert a powerful influence for good and would do much to redeem it from the bad reputation it is making.—American Baptist. Negroes should save their money, not by leaving their debts go unpaid but by exercising economy and thrift There is but little responsibility attached to a man who does not possess a dollar and the only way to over come such a condition is to be honest, saving and industrious, be moderate in the matters of dress and likewise in social affairs, do not live beyond your income and exercise a determination to save something out of your wages each month and by all means pay your debts and be honest. Honest men are always sought after in this world, they are always in demand, especially if they are capable, while the dishonest 'fellow, even though he be capable, is always shunned.—Rising Sun. Some people criticise other people more than they do themselves, and they are. worrying their brains trying to find out what other people are good for instead of trying to find out what they are good for.—Star of Zion. x On the question of illiteracy, that usually attracts so much attention some starting figures have come to light recently. The Atlantic Constitution has made the following discovery: 'We have as many illiterate white men, over the age of twenty-one years in the South-to-day as there were as many illiterate black men in 1850 was taken.' This is a startling fact that the Southern white man is called on to face, but nothing compared with the facts that are yet to be revealed. x The restrictions put upon other races, and the easy methods which the white man applies to them, are the ratio of illiteracy a high probability. Wickedness must have its reward, in one way or the other.—National B. Y. P. U. Yes, we are glad the restrictions thrown around the Negro and the requiring of such a mark of him will only serve as incentives to make him improve the more rapidly.—Western Star. When a colored man sits around and says the white man is mean and will not give him nor his son or daughter a nice job in his office or store, that colored man is fifty years behind the times, and as big a fool as he is behind. Colored men should do like white men. Think a hundred years ahead and make places for their children while they are growing up or while they are in school preparing themselves to go out in the battle of life. White men are not going to give so awful many nice jobs to colored men and women because there are not enough of them for the white people. They look out for their own race first and see about us last; and who can blame them? We should do as they do, look for ourselves, see—Mail and Express. An editorial in the last issue of the SOUTHERN WORKMAN commenting on Dr. DuBois's "Housing of the Negro" seems to have been misunderstood. It was not the intention of the writer of the editorial to contrast city and country Negroes, but rather to deprecate the well-known effect upon the poorer classes of country Negroes of flocking to the large cities. Dr. DuBois's "Philadelphia Negro" shows how the great masses that drifted into that city from the South not only went into the poorest quarters themselves but had a tendency to drag down those who had already secured a foothold in business and a good reputation in the community. The ratio is very small of those who succeed among the poorer whites who migrate from the country to the city. Among the blacks, because of the greater difficulties that they have to encounter and because of their greater lack of training, it is smaller. That the city Negro has an important part in the working out of the great social problems of his race, no one will deny; that he has made and is still making remarkable progress, is beyond question; but, for his own sake as well as for the sake of the ignorant masses who think that civilization means citification, the rush of the poorer classes of blacks from the country to the city is to be deprecated.—Southern Workman. Educational Notes. Free schools for all the people is the paramount question; they can be neglected only at imminent peril. Civilization, wealth, and the continuation of representative institutions are all dependent upon education. J. L. M. Curry. The wealth-producing power is measured by school privileges, says J. L. M. Curry, and as an illustration points to the wealth of Massachusetts. In Massachusetts $12,000,000 invested in education yielded $400,000,000. Whatever a nation sows, that must it reap. The South has been very poor—still suffers—but cannot afford to remain so; she is doomed to inferiority unless she does her duty to her children. On education the hope of the South must rest. Education is the only means of elevating and broadening the individual type. Great attention must be paid to this in order that the best results may be worked out with the unusually favorable materials and resources at hand, says Mr H. M. Atkinson of Atlanta in the Manufacturer's Record. The constant elevating of the individual through the process of education is the only means by which the best can be accomplished. The aim of this education must be to create broadness of view and liberality of thought. The South must broaden its base along these lines. Men are needed who will see the public good, and who will stand for it and their convictions. The broad view of such questions can only be brought about by education. The broadening of the individual and the teaching of the principles of political economy and municipal government are the needs of the day. This means also the broadening and strengthening of character—that is, the production of men, the word being used in its best sense. Atlanta University Notes.

Church Notes. Rev. Dr. Maddox preached, last Sunday, to a very large and appreciative congregation. With the greatest of interest, they listened to the very instructive sermon that was delivered. The Sunday school, which begins promptly at 10 a.m., is steadily growing in interest and attendance. Dr. Carr has charge of a large class of men both old and young. We are proud to see young men and women engaged in Sunday school work. At night there was, likewise, another large assemblage of intelligent faces. Dr. Carr spoke with force on "Redoubling the Time." We extend a most cordial invitation to the young people, to attend our B. Y. P. U. which meets at 7: p.m. To-morrow at 11: a. m., Dr. Carr will preach from the subject "The Saving Touch," at 8 p.m. "The Removal of the Stone." The Twilight Reapers Aid and Social Club will be prayed for at this church Sunday evening. All of the young people of the city are invited.

"The Negro Artisan" is the subject for the next Atlanta Conference which will meet here during Commencement week. Preparatory to the meeting of the Conference, Prof. W. E. B. DuBois and his classes are busy making investigations and gathering statistics of Negro artisans in Atlanta. The results from the study of the Negro common school by the Conference last year, have been printed, and will be issued out about April 1. At a recent meeting of the faculty two measures relative to athletics were passed. One disqualifies for membership, on any athletic team of the University, any student who previous to his membership in the institution, has played on a professional athletic team. The other requires "that any person who shall be a member of any athletic team representing this institution in contest with other institutions shall have maintained, for at least six weeks previous to such contests and shall maintain during the time of said contest, an average rank in all his studies of not less than 60 percent. By keeping out professionalism among the athletics here, and making scholarship the principal qualification for membership, these two measures will do much toward purifying the athletics of the University and strengthening the scholarship of many. It is hoped that other southern colleges that have not adopted such regulations will do so. MASONIC COLUMN. Through Past Master J. Q. Millen at Rufus, Ga., we are informed that Bro. Thos. Pierce of Deborah Lodge No. 77, departed this life on the 3rd instant in full triumph. Memorial services will be held on the third Sunday in May, at which time the the craft will take a part.

St. Philips Church Dots. Last Sunday was a fine day and the weather was all that could be expected. The morning service was well attended. Rev. J. T. Smith, pastor of Turner's Temple on 38th street preached at 11 a.m. His text was 15 Esp., of James, subject "Wisdom." At 8:00 p.m. Rev. C. C. Cargile, D. D., delivered an able discourse to a large congregation. His text was Acts 19-3 subject, "Conversion." At the close of the sermon, quite a large number of persons joined the church. On Tuesday night our revival started and a good number of persons started in earnest to seek their conversion. St. Philips has lost a good member in the person of Bro. Dennis. He was one of the pioneers of the church, and has gone to receive his reward. Bishop Turner stopped at St Philips on Wednesday morning on his way to attend the Florida conference. The four divisions that were organized for the purpose of raising money to finish paying for our church, are all actively at work and it is hoped that the required amount for each division will be raised. Services next Sunday as follows: Prayer meeting at 5:30 a.m. preaching at 11 a.m.; Sunday school at 2.30 p.m.; Christian Endeavor at 4:30 p.m.; preaching at 8 p.m. Every body is invited to attend these services. THE TRIBUNE is quite an interesting paper to read. It is always full of the latest news, and you will find something interesting from St. Philips A. M. E. Church in every issue. Hospital Dots. The physicians visited Bryan Baptist church on Sunday-night Feb. 2. Notice would have occurred in our last issue but for the lateness unavoidable in getting to the press. We listened to a sermon by the pastor Rev. G. W. Griffin, after which a handsome collection of $9.15 was raised for the hospital in a short while and in a most cheerful manner Rev. Griffin said he and his members would not be behind any church in trying to do good. We had a cordial invitation to call again. We are glad to say Charity Hospital has many substantial friends in Yamacraw as in evidence by the useful articles and money donated from that part of the city. We will go to St. John on Hartridge street to-morrow night. Mr. L.

Mrs. Martin left on Tuesday of last week for West Palm Beach, Fla., where she will spend a while with her husband, after receiving the congratulation of those of her friends who were aware of her marriage. The concert at Second Baptist church on Wednesday night last under auspices of Miss Alma M. Davis was quite a success. The attendance was large and an appreciative one. The program as published last week was carried out and each participant did well. The applause was hearty. Every one that attended, speaks in commendable terms of the concert. Miss Davis is to be commended for her great effort and the success of it. Many feel that it should be repeated. Juvenile Society No. 112 of the G. U.

He also explained in full, and to the satisfaction of the brethren some utterances which he made in his speech before that conference. Rev. J. T. Smith read a paper entitled "Crime and Criminal." The paper provoked a lengthy discussion which was participated in by Revs. F. R. Sims, C. L. Bonner, R. H. Singleton, and Drs T. N. M. Smith, A. Cooper. The Executive committee reported that the same topic be discussed next meeting, viz: "Crime and Criminals," and asked the Rev. Dr. Brown, the great phrenologist to read a paper. The committee which was appointed at the last meeting to draw up resolutions expressive of thanks to Judge Barrow for his able charge to the Grand Jury regarding the erection of a reformatory for youthful criminals and to memorize the County Commissioners touching the same subject, asked to be given more time, which was granted. The meeting adjourned by singing and the benediction was pronounced by Rev. R. D. Douglass. Installation Services. On Sunday afternoon last Rey. T. M.

The choir rendered some very choice selections. The solo by Mrs. M. Jackson was grand. One of the members said: "The church is very proud of Rev. T. M. Williamson. They have never been better pleased with a pastor. His sermons are a combination of thunder and lightening and when they strike a dead Christian they raise him to spiritual life. Since he took charge our church has taken on new life. We are now in the midst of a glorious revival. Visitors are always welcome. Our people are hospitable and our pastor is kind." A Young Man's Death Lawrence Bush 18 years of age died on Tuesday of last week from consumption. He was buried from the home of Mrs. Melvin, Charles street. Mrs. Fannie Bush the mother of the deceased was summoned from New York and reached the city on Saturday previous to the death of her son.

The friends of Mrs. Bush extend their sympathy. Revivalist Coming Rev. S. L. Johnson will be in the city to-morrow and will commence revial meetings at the Second Baptist church. These meetings will continue for several weeks. Rev. Johnson will be remembered by many.

GREEN'S BLDG, 22nd, Ennis, Gn BOERS GET METHUEN MANY KILLED AND WOUNDED It was announced in London Monday that, General Lord Mothuen and four guns had been captured by the Boers commanded by General DeLarey. The news came like a thunderbolt to the public. The extra editions of the evening papers giving an account of the disaster were eagerly bought up and their readers hurried through the streets with anxious faces and bitter remarks were passed on the subject of the government's declaration that the war in South Africa was over. The news came too late to affect business on the stock exchange, but excited curb dealings quickly followed the closing on which South African slumped heavily. The news was received in the house of commons amid great excitement. Th ereading of Lord Kitchener's telegram by the war secretary, Mr. Bridrick, was listened to in deep silence, which was broken by loud Irish cheers. Instantly there were cries of "Shame! Shame!" from the government benches. Then the Irish members seemed to think better of their outbreak, and suddenly subsided. The subsequent culogistic references to General Methuen were received with cheers. In brief, Lord Kitchener announced that when General Methuen was captured, wounded, with four guns, three British officers and thirty-eight men were killed and five officers and seventy-two men wounded. In addition one officer and two hundred men were reported missing. Story of the Defent. The text off Lord Kitchener's dispatch announcing the capture of General Methuen is as follows: "Pretoria, Saturday, March S.—I greatly regret to have to send you bad news of the Methuen. He was moving with nine hundred mounted men, under Major Paris, and three hundred infantry, four guns and a pompom, from Wynburg to Lichtenburg, and was to meet Grenfell, with 1,500 mounted men at Roviraines Fontein today. Yesterday morning early he was attacked by DeLarey's forces between Twe-Bosch and Palmeltchill. The Boers charged on three sides. "Five hundred and fifty men have come in at Maribos and Kraalapan. They were pursued by the Boers four miles from the scene of the action. They report that Methuen and Paris, with the guns, baggage, etc., were captured by the Boers. Methuen, when last seen, was a prisoner. I have no details of the casualties, and suggest delaying publication till I can send definite news. I think this sudden revival of activity on the part of DeLarey is to draw off the troops pressing DeWet." Boars on Each Flank. In a second dispatch, dated Sunday, March 9. Lord Kitchener says: "Paris has come in at Kraalpan with the remainder of the men. He reports that the column was moving in two parties. One, with the ox wagons, left T-Te-Bosch at 3 a.m. The other, with the mule wagons, started an hour later. Just before dawn the Boers attacked. Before reinforcements could reach them the rear guard broke. In the meantime a large number of Boers galloped up on both flanks. These at first were checked by the flank parties, but the panle and stempede of the mules had begun and all the mule wagons, with a terrible mixture of mounted men, rushed past the ox-wagons. All efforts to check them were unavailing. Major Paris collected forty men and occupied a position a mile in front of the ox-wagons, which were then halted. After a gallot but useless defense, the enemy rushed into the ox-wagons and Methuen was wounded in the thigh. Paris, being surrounded, surrendered at 10 a.m. Methuen is still in the Boer camp." Then follows the number of the casualties, as already cabled. The killed included Lieutenants G. R. Vlinin gand T. P. W. Nesham, of the Royal artillery, who were both killed while serving their guns with case shot. Many Troops Coming Home. It is said at the war department that there will be little or no delay in the execution of orders recently issued by the secretary of war for the return to the United States of all the regiments which went to the Philippines in 1899, aggregating about 13,500 men. Refuses Honor of Being First Assistant Postmaster General. A Washington special says: H. S. New, of Indianapolis, has declined the proffer of the offer of first assistant postmaster general tendered him some days ago by President Roosevelt. Mr. New informed the president that his business will not permit him to accept. President's Ordera Forbidding Them to Give Out News to Reporters Creates Concernation. A Washington special says: The announcement from the white house that hereafter all news concerning cabinet meetings must be given out by the secretary to the president and that members of the cabinet must not discuss cabinet meetings with representatives of the press is generally regarded as the hardest slam that any president has ever given the members of his cabinet. It is, in effect, notice to members of the cabinet that the president does not consider them the possessors of judgment or discretion. The heads of the different executive departments do not take at all kindly to this rejection upon them, especially as their friends in the senate and house are inclined to poke火 at them concerning the position in which they have been placed. No previous president has ever gone to these lengths. There have been times when, before cabinet meetings broke up, there would be a general agreement that certain matters should not be discussed with outsiders, but even Mr. Cleveland, who was criticised for keeping members of his cabinet in the background and dominating them, never went to to the length of forbidding them to discuss such cabinet matters as in their judgment they saw it. President McKinley had the happy faculty of impressing all those who conferred with him with the feeling that he reposed absolute confidence in them, and on important matters this confidence was not misplaced, either in the case of members of the cabinet or of others. There are one or two members of the present cabinet who seem to believe that the newspapers of the country have no right whatsoever to know what is going on. These are men who have never before figured in public life and whose heads have suffered decided enlargement since their selection to high place in this administration. These men are understood to indorse the mystery which the president seeks to throw around his conferences with his official advisers. But the men of wildest political experience in the cabinet and out of it construe this action of the president as not only an unpolitic move, but one which is a distinct reflection upon the members of the president's official household who are told, in effect, that they are mere department chiefs whose judgment cannot be relied upon. ROOSEVELT STEALS MARCH. Outwits Congress by Securing Important Section in Census Bill. A Washington dispatch says: President Roosevelt has outwitted Congress. Both house and senate passed the bill for a permanent census bureau with the understanding that all of the twent-three hundred clerks now in the bureau should, upon the bill becoming a law, be placed in the classified service. But President Roosevelt would not have it that way. He sent for Senator Quarles and Representative Hopkins, members of the conference committee, and directed them to put a section in the bill providing that only such clerks as are in the census office July 1st shall go into the classified service without examination. The clause was inserted. Then Hopkins and Quarles reported back to the house and senate that the conference committee had agreed upon the bill practically as it had been adopted. Thereupon it was passed without further question. It was not the original bill, but a gold brick. Under the Roosvelt clause, Director Merriam will fire all clerks in the bureau before July first, except the eight hundred he needs for the permanent bureau. He is a republican and will of course, pick out eight hundred republicans for retention. Between now and July first, fifteen hundred democrats and republicans will get the axe. Congress knows today the trick has been turned and there is general dismay. Prince Henry dined with the Vanderpilt's Sunday night. Monday he went to Philadelphia. Understood "In London that Irish League Will Be "Proclaimed." A London special says: It is understood that at the cabinet council the United Irish League will be "proclaimcd," although George Wyndham, chief secretary for Ireland, is averse to such a strong measure. Mr. Wyndham, however, is not in the cabinet, and his opinion is likely to be overruled. The Irish leaders declare they will welcome such a move, which would result; they say, in a revolution in the south of Ireland. PENNY CAUSED FIG FIRE. Looking For a Cent. Girl Clerk Starts a $100,000 Blaze In Store. Fire which was started by a young woman clerk, who, in searching the basement for a lost penny, ignited some cotton rolls, destroyed the Cannon dry goods store at Sedalia, Mo. Friday, and damaged several adjoining buildings. The total loss was less than $100,000. BELGIAN HARES IN AMERICA A Warning From the Department of Agriculture With Regard to Them. Any one who reads the advertisements in agricultural and poultry papers will see not a few notices inserted by importers and breeders of Belgian hares which in the past three or four years have been introduced into the country in considerable numbers. The Belgian hare is an unusually large specimen of his kind and is highly valued both for meat and fur. Some American breeders are becoming known as hare fanciers, taking particular pains to breed only from the finest specimens and priding them selfy on the superiority of their stock. The interest in the Belgian hare that has developed within the past four years is observed in most parts of the country, but especially in California, Colorado and other Western states. Our department of Agriculture has thought it necessary to call the attention of breeders to the fact that the introduction of these animals in large numbers is accompanied by a certain element of danger which should not be overlooked. The department says that some of the hares are sure to escape. The State Board of Horticulture of California estimates that several thousand of the animals are already at large in that state. If they increase as rapidly when at large as they do in captivity, they will undoubtedly become a source of danger. The department intimates that it may become necessary to adopt stringent measures to keep the animals under control. They breed as rapidly as rabbits. Everybody knows what a terrible infliction rabbits have become in Australia and New Zealand, where all efforts to exterminate them have thus far been ineffectual, though millions of them are killed every year, their skins being shipped to England. The Department of Agriculture also says that the question of the acclimatization of the Belgian hare in Porto Rico has excited much more interest and expresses the opinion that the introduction of the animal into the island would be dangerous. Hare meat is not so much in favor in this country as in Europe, where it is greatly relished. Those of our people who are interested in the breeding of hares for meat are largely persons of foreign origin, who were accustomed in their native land to see the hare used very generally as food. The animals are an enemy of fruit trees, being likely, in winter, to feed upon the buds, of these trees. They are also very fond of cabbages, lettuce and some other vegetables, fatten themselves in cat fields, and in fact, are a great nuisance if not kept under excellent control. Our farmers certainly do not care to invite such an infliction as that which Australia has suffered through the introduction of rabbits. THE YOUNG MAN'S DILEMMA.
