VOL. XVIII. MURDER SPECIALIST Negro "Voodoo Doctor." Did Pay ing Business in Quaker City. SETTLED DOMESTIC TROUBLES Openly Advertised a "Better Method" Than Divorce to Rid Wives of Husbands and Husbans of Wives—Investigation On. A Philadelphia special says: Murder for money, murder, for hate, murder for illicit love, murder for social position, murder for revenge, perhaps thirty-four murders in all, ae revelations promised by the investigations now being made into the work of "Dr." George Hoossey, the gay-haired negro voodoo man, who was, on Friday, neld without ball for complicity in the reported murder of William D. Dansce. That Hoossey has sold very large quantities of arsenic, the sort known to the trade as ratsbane, is an established fact. That he solicited, and actually entered into a contract to murder a woman tor $100 is true beyond all question; that he made no less than thirty-four similar contracts is believed by officers of a prominent insurance company who have called in a force of private detectives to assist the city police in their investigations. In his advertisement Hoossey announced a method that was "quicker, cheaper and more satisfactory than divorce for those tired of husbands or wives." It is charged that he contracted to kill objectionable people by "slow doses" for $100 cach. To Open Many Graves. Well known physicians in all sections of the city have reported cases to the district attorney that will probably lead to the opening of many graves, and as many inquests by the coroner. In each of these cases the patient first appeared with a minor complaint, which grew progressively worse and which just before death manifested what are now recalled as the usual symptoms of arsenical poisoning. In each of these reported cases there is a story of big insurance, disturbed domestic relations or an affair of next of kin. A clean sweep was made Saturday of all the physicians in the northeast section of the city who have signed death certificates within the past two years that specify heart lesions as the cause of death and seven of these practitioners were closeted with Assistant District Attorney Shoyer for several hours, during which time they went over their office records in the mortality cases and frankly stated their suspicions. In each of these cases a thorough investigation was ordered and the local managers of all life insurance companies were asked for information concerning the policies paid upon these risks. It is not believed, however, that "Dr." Hoossey was knowingly a party to any extensive plan to murder people for insurance money. His specialty seemed to be the clearing up of disturbed domestic relations by deliberate murder with the insurance feature as a secondary incident of his work. His price, according to the memorandums found in his shop, was invariably $100. Some of his patrons are only referred to by numbers, others by hieroglyphics that nobody but himself will ever be able to solve, but there can be no mistake about the entry of $100 that appears after each of thirty-four entries made on the same record with the $51 entry, which, admittedly, applies to Mrs. Catharine Dansce and the $100 entry which identified the case of Detective Gavan, who contracted to have his wife murdered by Hoossey for $100 as a ruse to catch him. The recorder of the bureau of health shows that Hoossey issued death certificates over his own signature as "George Hoossey, M. D." and the authorities are doing their utmost to discover how and from whom Hoossey obtained the blank forms. All of the deaths so certified are to be investigated by Acting Coroner Hammond. Rare are the stories told by the old residents of St. Marys street, where Hoossey once lived, concerning the phenomenal performances of "Old Voodoo Hoossey," who, they assert, is "in league with the devil. In those days he sold cure-alls, but later confined his work entirely to the complains of women. His colored patrons carried wonderful stories of his marvelous cures into the kitchens of well-to-do white people, and after a time he refused to treat colored people. Thus, it is explained, he secured his long list of white patrons and white victims. The Savannah Tribune. The First national bank of Jacksonville, the oldest bank in Florida, closed its doors Monday.

SAVANNAH. GA.. SATURDAY. MARCH 21, 1903. AN EXTRA CONGRESS Said to be Under Consideration by President Roosevelt. WANT CUBAN MATTER FINISHED Enactment of Somo Kind of Money Bill is Also Wanted—No Definito Conclusion, However, is Reached. According to a Washington special President Roosevelt has under serious consideration the summoning of congress in extra session early this fall. Apparently no determination has been reached, and there is no official announcement of such purpose, but administration leaders acknowledge an extra session is highly probable. The necessity for the formal approval by congress of the Cuban reciprocity treaty will be given as the chief reason for such extra session, but it is believed that the strongest influence tending to bring it about is the desire in financial circles for the early passage of some currency measure like the Aldrich bill with the idea of furnishing'a means to relieve the probability of money stringency in November and December. The conferences which have been held by J. Pierpont Morgan with President Roosevelt, Senator Aldrich and Senator Hanna are understood to have related principally to this contingency. President Roosevelt has been strongly imbued with the idea that unless Cuban reciprocity legislation is made effective at once there will be suffering in Cuba. It is said that Mr. Morgan disabused his mind of this idea. Mr. Morgan reported conditions in the island at present most favorable, and said the outlook for the future was bright. He saw no reason for immediate action by congress in line with the treaty. Cubans Need Help. The president has been so strongly of the opinion that the Cubans need help that he thinks congress should act early this fall, rather than to wait for the regular session, which convenes in December. The next crop of Cuban sugar will be marketed in December and January, and it is his desire that the Cuban planters and American importers be given the benefit of the reductions set forth in the treaty on the coming crop. It is almost certain if this Cuban matter were allowed to go over to the regular session there would be no action upon it before January, which would mean the postponement of relief for another year. The desire to put through Cuban legislation and also to put through some currency bill will, it is now confidently expected, bring a call for an extra session to meet probably in October. Friday was one of conferences in the senate. The republican steering committee decided that all republicans should vote against the proposed amendments to the Panama canal treaty. The proceedings of the senate will now be taken stenographically for publication in the Record in accordance with the agreement reached Thursday. The democrats will strongly support their amendments designed to secure absolute American sovereignty over the canal strip with recognition of the right of this government to defend its property in any way it desires, including the right to fortify. It is positively certain none of those amendments will be adopted. After they fall, it is expected a number of democrats will vote to ratify the treaty as it stands. A good many republicans would like to vote for some of the democratic amendments, but they will follow the direction of their steering committee. Republicans Doubtful. Some senators who talked with the president Friday believe it to be unlikely that an extraordinary session will be called next autumn. They say many reasons might be cited why such a session should not be held, the principal one being that some important state elections are to be held in November and members or congress will be busy with political affairs in their own states TROLLEY LINE ASSURED Will Connect South Carolina Capital With Alken and Augusta. The building of the much-talked-of electric railway line from Columbia to Alken, S. C., now seems assured. The proposed line will connect at Alken with the Augusta-Alken line, linking Columbia and Augusta. The initial step toward the building of this line was taken Tuesday when the application for a charter was made to the secretary of state, and a commission was secured. The lins will pass through the counties of Richland, Lexington and Alken, and will be 50 miles in length. BLOODY WORK OF BANDITS. Stage Coach Held Up and All of Its Slx Occupants Killed and Then Robbed. A dispatch from Tucson, Arizona, says: Mexican bandits held up the stage coach which runs between Potam and Torin, on the Yaqui river, in Sonora, killing all of the six passengers. Among them was Fillberto Alvarado, a wealthy Mexican, who owns a number of ranches along the Yaqui river. Alvarado and his wife had taken the stage from Potam to Torin, and the men no doubt thought they carried a large sum of money with them. The stage carried very little mail and scarcely any money or valuables. The hold-up took place about half way between the two towns. Just how the stage was attacked will never be known, as all the passengers and driver were killed. They were picked up the same afternoon of the tragedy and the circumstances give evidence that they put up a fight, else they would not have been killed. Their bodies were riffled of everything of value on them. The traces had been cut and the horses had been allowed to run wild. The cover and body of the stage were shot full of holes. It is thought by the Guayamas authorities that the perpetrators were some of the bandits who have taken refuge in the mountains back of Yaqui river and were watching for Alvarado. Friends of the murdered rancher say that he had little money with him at the time. Alvarado had been married only two months. With him were Senorita Julia Berido and Senorita De Gonzales, both of prominent families in that country and both of whom were murdered. TRUST SEEKS COTTON CROP. Alleged that Standard Oil People are Planning to Control Staples Planning to Control Staple A special from Boston, Mass., says: Back of the present movement in cotton and the coming consolidation of various cotton product companies, are Standard Oil men, whose representatives are backing both sides of the market and seeking to carry out plans which the Standard Oil Company has had for years under consideration of controlling the cotton crop of the country through the improved bailing process. Sully, the big cotton bull, is a protege of General S. W. Weid, of Boston, father of the Planters' Compress Company, and Sully's broker in cotton exchange transactions. Price's backer is A. C. Burrage, of Boston, a Standard Oil man, who has just been elected a directors in Planters' Compress. Burrage backed Price in cotton last year and profited $1,000,000 by the deal. Mr. Burrage is a personal friend of H. H. Rogers, another Standard Oil magnate, who has an interest in Planters' Compress, and they are working to secure control of the American cotton trade. NOTHING FOR THE WIFE. Murdered Millionaire Burdick Cut Better Half from His Will. The will of the late' Edwin T. Burdick, murdered in his home at Buffalo, N. Y., February 27, was made public Friday. Burdick 'cuts off his wife, who he was suling for divorce, without a cent. He leaves $2,500 to relatives and the rest of his property to his three children, share and share allike. The will was made December 8, 1902. Mr. Burdick names as executors of his estate Augustus B. Kellogg. George H. Dunston and George C. Miller. He names Charles Parke and Risey Tucker, his business associates, as guardians of his three children. Frederick B. Hartzell, attorney for Mrs. Burdick, was asked if there would be any objections to the will so far as he and his client are concerned. "I can't tell yet," he said. "There may be." Ten Miners Indicted by Grand Jury. Indictments were returned at Charleston, W. Va., by the federal grand jury against ten miners for resisting officers of the government while trying to serve process at Atkinsville, prior to the battle at Stanford City. MARION WAS SLOW WITNESS. Daughter of Murdered Millionaire Volunteered No Information. At Buffalo, N. Y., Monday Miss Marion Burdick, the prey, rosy-cheeked daughter of Edwin L. Burdick, was the most interesting witness at the inquest before Judge Murphy. Marion is 16 years old. Like Mrs. Hull, her grandmother, she volunteered no information. She answered in monosyllables whenever possible. It was "yes" or "no." When those repues would not suffice she used as few words as possible. CANAL NOW ASSURED Senate Ratifies Treaty With Only Five Dissenting Votes. NOT A SINGLE CHANGE MADE Democrats Offered Their Several Amendments and Urgently Appealed for Adoption, But Were Turned Down by Strictly Party Vote. A Washington special says: Without dotting an "i" or crossing a "t," even without changing a single punctuation mark, the senate Tuesday voted to ratify the treaty with the republic of Colombia, for the construction of an isthmian canal. The vote for ratification was 73 in the affirmative to 5 in the negative. The senate was in executive session when the result was announced so that only the senators themselves and a few confidential employees were present. The five men who voted against the treaty were Senators Morgan and Pettus, of Alabama; Daniel and Martin, of Virginia, and Teller, of Colorado. Every other senator cast his vote for it. This action was taken after a long debate in which the merits of the canal situation were gone into thoroughly. All the senators announced themselves as gratified to have the long struggle terminated, but none of them manifested their appreciation by cheers or hand-clapping. On the contrary, all of them seemed more concerned about getting away from the chamber than about anything else, so that by the time the senate could adjourn, which it did almost immediately after the result was announced, most of the senators had left their seats and some of them had donned their hats and overcoats. The day was given almost entirely to general debate on the treaty, and in addition to the set speeches made under the general agreement by Senators Morgan and Cullom, there were many short speeches and a rather long speech by Senator Daniel, of Virginia. The only party vote of the day was taken on the substitute for article 4, which was agreed upon by the democratic caucus and had reference to the acquisition of territory in Central and South America by the United States. There were a number of speeches on this amendment, but it was voted down by an almost two-thirds majority, the ballot footing up 51 ayes to 27 noes. The proceedings opened with a speech by Senator Morgan, devoted especially to the question of the defense of the canal. He criticised sharply the action of the senate in refusing to so amend the treaty as to insure American control. When Mr. Morgan concluded Senator Money offered a substitute for the fourth article of the treaty, which disavows any intention on the part of the United States to increase its territory at the expense of South and Central America. This is one of the two amendments on which the democrats agreed to act as a unit. Speeches were made in support of the Money amendment by Senators Bacon, Teller, Daniel, Morgan, Bailey and others. They contended for an impartial recognition of all American republics, urging that under the language of the fourth article of the treaty Mexico would be left as the only American republic to which the avowal of non-enroachment could be held as non-applicable. Senators Spooner and Hoar replied, contending that there was practically no difference between the language of the amendment and that of the article as it stands. Senator Money's amendment was defeated—51 to 27—a strict party vote. Senator Daniel then offered an amendment providing that the treaty should not take effect until it had been approved by the congress. This amendment was voted down. Senator Morgan presented four or five of his amendments, each of which in turn was defeated, but upon which Senator Daniel continued to speak. All told, he spoke about an hour. His speech was an arraignment of the republican policy in pressing the treaty with which, he asserted, was undue haste. After Senator Daniel had closed, several other senators on both sides of the chamber addressed the senate in fifteen-minute speeches for and against the treaty. Divorce Bill Passed. The North Carolina senate has passed a bill allowing of a divorce for two years' abandonment and a remarriage five years after divorce. It also passed a bill allowing railways to give free transportation to all ex-confederate pensioners. port two important Amendments. The democratic senators at their caucus Monday resolved to stand together in the senate in support of two amendments to the Panama canal treaty. One of these provides for modification of the twenty-third article of the treaty so as to insure the control of the canal zone by the United States, and the other enlarges the provision in the fourth article of the treaty, which is a divawal of any intention on the part of the United States "to increase its territory at the expense of Colombia, or of the sister republics in Central or South America," so as to include Mexico. Kills Farmer and Wounds Sons; Also Tries to Stay His Own Family. Andrew Dowling, a prominent farmer, who resides near White Oak, Ala., and his two sons were shot by William Cooper, a crazy negro, Tuesday morning. Dowling died from the effects of his wound. One of his sons was shot in the arm and the other in the side. Both will recover. Cooper also attempted to shoot his wife and children, who escaped by running and hiding. HOPEFUL AT NEW ORLEANS. Cessation of Stormy Weather Brings Less Danger in River Situation. The river gauge at New Orleans Sunday night was a little over 19.3, which is only 0.2 below the record of 1897, but the sudden change from stormy weather to sunshine and brightness and has given renewed hope all along the line. Man Loaded Gun With Three-Cornered File, Which Went Through Heart. At Iowa City, Monday, Jacob Brum, a workingman, ended his life in a sensational manner. He loaded a gun with a three-cornered file and the trigger being broken, he placed the butt of the gun in the stove and the muzzle against his breast and waited for the heat to fire the weapon. The file went through his heart. UNBUSINESSLIKE. Husstler—I've no time to stop now. I'll give you a dime on my way back.

SATURDAY MARCH 21,1903. Good citizenship can only be obtained by practical education. NEFARIOUS legislations will not be barriers to the success of our people. CRUM will be Charleston's collector of Customs: Mark the prediction. THE man who blames others for his short-comings will never be a success. TALK is not the best thing at present. Hard work with good results would be more telling. THE colored citizens of Virginia are acting nobly in raising funds to test the disfranchising laws of that state. WITH dignity and discretion, everything that reflects upon the principle of the race should be resented. But little good can be obtained from the agitation of the race issue. We are opposed to the Wisconsin Conference. CERTAIN of our people can add so much to the standing of the race if they would only act more discreetly in their affairs. The leaders of affairs care but slightly for the person who can not keep his word or meet an appointment promptly. It is hoped that the agitation among the Baptist ministers and those of the other denominations is at an end. It has not helped any one concerned. No, the President is not president of the "black belt" but of the entire country and of all the people, and thank God that there is such a man as he in the presidential chair. Our white friends whenever they give advice generally torminate by admonishing us to keep out of politics. We would admonish them to allow us to enjoy the rights of citizenship. That's all we ask. THE ratification of the Panama canal treaty means much for the Southern states and especially those bordering the ocean with good ports. As soon as the canal is finished the great good will be manifested. THERE has been some agitation against the policy shops. A raid is promised on some of them. They are a blot upon the city and no effort should be spared to have every one of them closed and kept closed. THE magistrate, police and city courts are being fattened by a certain class of our people. Let them so act as to keep away from those places; then they would be able to save more and become better respected. FAITHFULNESS is one of the most excellent taunts that a person can acquire. Many a man has reached prosperity and honor by being faithful to those whom they served. There is much in this for the young of our race. MATTERS not how small the earnings of a person are, he ought to be able to save a few cents each week or month as the case may be. Some of our people have been too neglectful along this line. They should always prepare financially for the day of real need. WE are still mindful of the needs of our children who are without school facilities There are over four thousand of them. Some of our white friends say that there are only about two hundred. How they get the truth mixed when the Negro is concerned. THE Evangelical Ministers Union promised in this week's issue to give a report on the Southern Bank discrimination. It is hope that these ministers will not take a passive stand but speak out boldly for the sake of race principle. There must be no fence straddling. THERE-are constantly passing through our city a number of women and young girls bound for various parts of the North. These persons are induced to leave their homes by glib tongued agents. Many of them are inexperienced and without means, and will no doubt be a charge on the community where they are bound. It would be far better for them to remain at their homes. THE TRIBUNE is proud. of the fact that all of the self-respecting colored men and women, who are depositors in the Southern Bank have either withdrawn their deposits or will do so at the end of the quarter. This bank-has two windows for depositors of the races, which is very objectionable, and for this cause will loose several thousand dollars of our people's money. BOISTEROUSNESS in public should never be indulged in. Second Baptist Church. Sergices were well attended all day. last Sunday. The pastor preached two very able and instructive sermons. The sermon at 11 a.m., was especially strong and timely from Acts 19:31 39, subject "The crime and evils of mob violence." The Sunday school is in a most flourishing condition, and is preparing for its Easter exercises which promise to be as usual, grand and up-to-date. A series of meetings began at the church last Monday night and will continue for some weeks. During the week the meetings have been well attended, and much interest manifested. The Magnolia Federal Labor Union No. 9726, will attend church in a body to-morrow night and the pastor will deliver a special sermon suitable for the occasion. The ten nights entertainment given by the church was a grand success, and the pastor and members thank the many friends of the church for their liberal patronage. St. Phillip's Dots. Dr. E. S. Makiell, P. E., of the Blackshear District preached at 11 a. m. on Sunday. His text was 9th, verse of the 1 Epistle of Peter, subject "Salivation and its partial works." It was quite a supprise to have Dr. Makiell with us and it was also a treat to have him deliver such a grand discourse. Dr. Makiell is a forceful speaker and his sermon was a grand effort and the large congregation that heard him was well pleased. At 7:45 p. m. Rev. Newton's text was Luke 15:10. As usual Rev. Newton's discourse was a good one. You are never disappointed when you have the opportunity of hearing one of his sermons. Our church is too small to accommodate visitors and friends. We hope at no distant day to have room to accommodate all. The board of the trustees at their regular meeting last week re-elected W. J. Williams, secretary and G. S. Thomas, treasurer. After the adjournment of the board they with Rev. Newton attended Gaines Chapel, bazaar, and had quite an enjoyable time. Mr. Frank Coleman is a great leader in socials and is always on the go. St. Philips Sunday School opened their ten nights bazaar on Monday night in the ladies exchange adjoining the church, and if you want to enjoy yourselves, drop in. Admission free. Refreshments of all kind. Supt. Baldwin and his corps of teachers will spare no pains in making it enjoyable for all. Don't forget that Easter Sunday will be a great day with St. Phillips. The services for Easter will be as follows: At 11 a. m. a special sermon appropriate to the occasion will be delivered. The choir have also special music; at 3 p. m. Sunday School; at 8 p. m. Christian Endeavor exercises; quite an elaborate program has been prepared for the occasion. On to-morrow services will be as usual. First A. B. Church. The services were well attended last Sunday. At 10 a. m., the Sunday School lesson was interestingly reviewed by the superintendent, Prof. J. C. Ross. At 11 a. m., a fine sermon was preached by Rev. J. W. Carr. His subject was "The Christian on guard." At 8 p. m. a large and appreciative audience assembled. At this hour Dr. Carr delivered an instructive sermon from the subject "Belshazzar's Feast." The sermon was highly complimented. The B. Y. P. U. at 7 p. m. was well attended. Miss H. V. Morrell read an excellent paper from the subject "Negro's position with reference to the Race Problem." To-morrow Sunday School at 10 a. m.; special sermon by pastor at 11 a. m.; at 8 p. m. a special sermon will be prescheduled to the Young Men Friendly Association, after which there will be baptism. The public is invited. Bolton Street Church. Rev. T. M. Williamson, B. D., on last Sunday morning preached a soul stirring and instructive sermon, on "Lesson from the story of Ruth." At night he discussed "Heavenly citizenship." There were few dry eyes in the building when the preacher contrasted the trouble of this life to the joys of heaven. The vast audience seemed to have caught on spiritual fire and everybody seemed to be pleased. On tomorrow morning his subject will be "Our duty to acquire a knowledge of God." At night he will use for a subject "Elisha's prayer." The revival continues next week. You are invited to all the services. A company of the sisters and brethren of the church, met at the home of Mrs. Mary Battees on West Gwinnett street and gave a very pleasant social in honor of their pastor, the Rev. T. M. Williamson, B. D. The house was very beautifully decorated and music was furnished by Mr. J. E. Johnson the well known christian of Rev. Williamson's church. A few names of the guests are as follows: Miss S. Quinn, Mrs. Ida Jackson, Mrs. F. Andrews, Mrs. Barron, Miss Julia Anderson, Miss Mary Gordon, Miss Katie King and Mrs. Hymes. Rev. R. Kemp, the popular pastor of Beth-Eden church and Rev. J. M. Jones, the popular missionary of south Georgia were present and shared in the enjoyment of the occasion with Pastor Williamson. At the conclusion of the feast of good things, prepared by faithful hands and loving hearts, Dea. A. M. Williams, as spokesman for those who had made the entertainment a success, presented Pastor Williamson with an elegant package. Pastor Williamson in a very affectionate manner thanked the sisters and brethren of their kind token of love and appreciation. All went home happy over the enjoyment of the occasion. Union Baptist Church There were regular services at the Union Baptist church. Bro. Pollin prescheduled at 11 o'clock. At 3 p.m. the Sunday school begun as usual with a large attendance. There were several visitors. The B Y. P. U. was also very interesting. At 8 p.m. the pastor preached from Rev. 5:55, subject "The lion of the tribe of Judah." Sunday at 11 a.m. the pastor preached at South Valley church, and administered the Lord's supper. The anniversary began on Monday evening last. Rev. G. W. Griffin preached the opening sermon. His subject was "The glory of the church." The choir and the Young Men and Ladies Christian Clubs of Rev. Griffin's church were with him. The opening was a success and we were unable to supply seats for the people. The decorations are exquisite. The pastor and members have endeavored to make it pleasant for the visitors and friends. On Sunday at 11 a.m. Rev. J. I. Saures will preach and at 3 p.m. Rev. J. I. Durham will preach a special sermon to the Sunday school and B. Y. P. U., at 8:15 p.m. the pastor will preach the anniversary sermon. We cordially invite all of our friends to come. Tillman's Doom Predicted To the Editor of THE TRIBUNE: In reading THE TRIBUNE of February 28th of Mr. Tillman's speech, I cannot understand why Mr. Tillman is always barking on the race question. The Acts of the apostles, 18:26 reads thus "And hath made of one blood all nations of men to dwell on all the face of the earth, and hath determined the time before appointed, and the bounds of his habitation'. Now turn back to Malachi 2:10, "Have we not all one Father? hath not one God created us? Why do we deal with treachery every man against his brother by profaning the govenant of our father." Psalms 72:4, "He shall judge the poor of the people and shall break in pieces the oppressors." I mention the Bible truths to show how foolish it is for man to be always biking on a problem which there is no solution, so far as man is concerned. He puts me in mind of the old dog who was always barking at the moon. He kept it up night after night until one cold night in February old Mercury went down to converse with zero and forgot to come up for some time; so he barked and barked and Old Luna just shined right on, and did not worry herself at all about his barking. So one morning the old dog was found frozen to death with his mouth open looking up, but the moon had gone on about her business shining just the same. So it will be with all who are howling day and night on race problem, and one of these morning you will find some of them like the old dog, and the (50,000,000) white people of the north will be going right on and attending to their business, and the (17,000,000) white people of the south will be going right just the same, (minus one) the 8,000,000 ignorant Negroes will be here and will never know the barking had stopped.—By Alfred I. Washington, 419 Liberty lane E. The Evangelical Union. "Truth crushed to earth shall rise again, The eternal years of God are here; While error crumbled writed in pain, And die among her worshippers. The Evangelical Ministers Union convened in regular session on Tuesday at 11 a.m, with Rev. F. R. Sims B. D., presiding. "Lord thou will hear me when I pray," was the opening hymn, selected by Rev. Samuel J. Thomas, who conducted the devotional exercises and read the 133d Psalms. It was particularly gratifying to note the entire absence of the spirit of sheer vindictiveness, retaliation or malignity throughout the deliberations, as some would very naturally suppose, in consideration of the article published in the Morning News of recent date from the Baptist Union in the form of an uncalled for disclaimer; but the Evangelical Ministers Union has no axe to grind of the Nicolaaitan's proclivities and like John the Baptist, can well afford to lay the axe at the root of the tree. For just as sure as "pride goeth before contention" a haughty spirit must of necessity precede a fall. Defence is not defiance, and furthermore men who aspire to the leadership of the race should place themselves above the petty wranglings of the ordinary secular harpist. Therefore the attitude of the Evangelical Ministers Union is purely one of "defence" and not "defiance," in such matters, and its proceedings are opened to the public criticism of the reading element, in our city at all times. There is nothing "sub ross" about it. There are no "Rip Van Winkle" of the "sleepy hollow" epistle or of the "firebrand" propensity among her membership. A one sided game is a very tame affair, while it is manifest that "in the multitude of counselors there is much wisdom." For this reason matters of importance affecting our people at home and abroad are being constantly reported to the union, almost at every session and whatever action taken is given to the public each week, so there can be no real demand for an "alarmist" at any time, especially among sponsors of Christ. An interesting communication was received from Rev. Dr. H. S. Bradley, pastor of Trinity Church, Atlanta, in response to a set of resolutions adopted by the union endorsing a sermon recently preached by him, as reported, on the race question, and which was ordered furnished the press and Atlanta Constitution. The reading of Dr. Bradley's letter was greeted with a perfect storm of applause and the letter was ordered "spread upon the minute." Mrs. Georgia Anderson, the Missionary from West Coast Africa, presented a paper signed by Rev. W. A. Nisbet, president of the Ministerial Association of Savannah, showing that at (her request) the ministerial association will hear from a committee on the nature and extent of her work and mission on the first Monday in April; whereupon the chair appointed Revs D. S. Wells, M. P. E., James Jackson, R. H. Singleton, J. A. Hadley, G. L. Word, D. D. J. W. Roberts and C. W. Newton, D. D. Dr. Wells read from the Morning News of the 11th instant, the article already referred to, and following which Dr. Newton read the reply in behalf of the Evangelical Ministers Union as published in the Savannah Press, on the 16th instant, all of which was ordered "laid on the table." Dr. Word also read an article from the Independent, (N. Y.,) on the race problem and offered a resolution endorsing the sentiment therein expressed. The motion of Dr. Word was amended so as to refer the matter to a committee with instructions to prepare suitable resolutions endorsing the article and commendatory to the editor of the New York Independent. The chair appointed the committee as follows: Drs. G. L. Word, D. S. Wells, C. W. Newton, S. C. Powell and J. L. Coles. Dr. Hadley read a very interesting article from "The Voice of the People," which was received as information. A collection of $12.75 was taken towards securing the charter, and other contingent expenses of the union. Various invitations were extended, and accepted by pastors of the different churches at bazaars, fairs or revivals in progress. Rev. W. B. Berrier of the Thankful Baptist church, presented a formal invitation in writing, for the union to attend a meeting at his church in a body at an early date, Rev. F. R. Sims, B. D., to preach the introductory sermon and Rev. J. A. Hadley, D. D., alternate. Rev. E D. Mitchell reported a sermon from Rev. 3:20, "Behold I stand at the door and knock" which was a faithful exposition of Christ's calling and inviting us by his Word, providence and spirit to admit Him into our hearts, etc. Adjourned, with benediction by Rev. G. E Fantoy—E Jonathan Nelson, Secy. Lost His Nerve. Those who climb mountains frequently find the dizzy depths too much for them and lose their nerve.

Baptist Ministers' Union. On Monday morning the Baptist Ministers Union met at the usual hour at the First African Baptist church, Franklin square, Dr J. J. Durham, presiding. The devotional exercises were conducted by Rev P. Holmes. Some inquiries concerning the absence of Rev J. M. Simms, president of the union were made, and Dr. Durham stated that the president of the union was in Washington, D. C., on business, and perhaps would be absent from the city for some time. Rev Hosea Maxwell reported his sermon from the following subject "The first Christian church." He showed that the church was founded on truth, and how after the ascension of Christ, the apostles succeeded by sticking the gospel of truth. He also showed the great danger of telling lies, especially lying among followers of Christ. As an illustration he referred to Annais and his wife Sapphira. Dr. Carr preached from Dan. 5:27, subject "The hand writing on the wall." He showed the mistake of men and women in society, thinking that they should do as they please, right or wrong. While Mr. Belahazzar claimed the right to get drunk, "God also exercised the right to humble him and completely bring him down. Dr Carr also paid his compliments to the so-called "fortune teller." Rev. William Barron, reported a sermon which was very ably handled, subject "The Prodigal." What Rev. Barron did for the young men was a plenty. Rev. Whitmire preached from Acts 6:3 subject "The office and duties of Deacons." After telling how the office became a necessity in the days of the apostles, he showed why the deacon should be honest and full of the Holy Ghost. He referred to the pet idea among deacons, that they are to boss the pastor, and are the head of the church. He also showed that the pastor is no hired servant as the deacons try to make the people believe God made preachers and through the preachers influence the church selects the deacons after the church made the selection, the preachers meet and ordained the deacons, hence God made preachers and preachers made the deacons. He showed that deacons should not attempt to run the church independent of the pastor. The pastor is concerned in all that concerns the church. The deacons are to co-operate with him in all matters pertaining to the welfare of the church. Rev. J. S. Irby preached from Rev. 22:1 subject "The blessings of God." Rev. A. Hudson subject was "The love of God." Rev. T. M. Williamson on last Sunday night preached from the subject "Heavenly citizenship." His sermon was pronounced a masterly effort. Rev. H. L. Heywood's subject was "The lion of the tribe of Judah." He preached a fine sermon, full of gospel truth. It was motioned by Dr Carr that hereafter, we meet at 12 o'clock, noon and adjourn at 2 o'clock. This last item of our proceeding will be settled in our next meeting—T. M. Williamson, Reporter. The Baptist County conference of McIntosh County of which Rev. N. H. Whitmire is president will convene in Darien on next Saturday. Death Rate Decreasing. Death Rate Decreasing. The 1900 census shows a decrease of 10 per cent in the general death rate. The decline in Consumption is more marked than any other disease. Many causes are attributed, but it is safe to say that Dr. King's New Discovery for Consumption, Coughs and Colds is responsible for this decline, to a large extent. Many a life has been saved by its use. There is nothing anywhere just as good for Lung and Throat troubles. It's positively guaranteed by Knight's Pharmacy Company.

He was well-known, and up to a few months ago was night watchman at the post-office. His funeral took place on Monday afternoon. The 38th, anniversary of the Eureka Lodge No. 1. of Mason was commemorated on Wednesday night last. After the regular communication the members and visiting brethren repaired to the supper room where tables were prepared for all present, and short talks were made by some of the brethren. Union Explains Position. "Our union did not presume to represent the Baptist churches of Savannah, but does represent all Protestant denominations in some of their strongest leaders of our city. It is true that there are some Baptist leaders among us who aggrandize us when they are so frank as to confess that they are in no way responsible for anything we say or do. We do not wish to be misrepresented, and they are kind enough not to usurp that position. "As to the regulars, the oldest Baptist minister in Savannah, or perhaps in the state, has affiliated with the Evangelical Union since its organization and claims membership in this body now. He is in all probability the most profound thinker and logical reasoner and catholistic in spirit in our city and vicinity of the Baptist faith. We refer to Rev. Alexander Harris, D D. "The said Colored Baptist Ministers' Union, with all of its disregard for the "so-called" Evangelical Ministers Union, did, on the 22d day of February, write a letter for recognition to our union, and lest it might not have the desired effect, sent their leading representatives, in the persons of Revs. Durham, Carr, Kemp, and others to urge the necessity of the affiliation set forth in the letter. "Now as to the Southern Bank and the treatment of the committee sent there by us it gave the required information without hesitation. The explanation was perfectly acceptable, and we are satisfied that it does not need the the Colored Baptist Ministers' Union as a matter of defense or their unsolicited endorsement of any of its actions. "Again, the Baptist Union, either ignorantly or wilfully, misrepresents how large a faction our constituency involves in and around our city. The pastors of the city comprising the membership of our interdenominational union stands for 10,000 people. The presiding elders, missionaries and evangelists also have a following of 10,000 people.

One of the most unique social functions of the season was the reception tendered Golden Link Lodge of Good Samaritans on Monday evening last, at the pleasant home of Mrs. M.

The card party giyen Friday afternoon of last week, by Mrs. M. Howard at 2113 Harden street, in compliment to the Married Ladies Pleasure Club and their guests, was one of the most pleasant of the season. All that artistic decorations could do to make the surroundings lovely had been done, and the scene was one of unusual beauty. A number of interesting games were indulged in. An attractive feature of the afternoon was the duet by Mrs. Crawford and Mrs. Mason. Those asked to assist Mrs. Howard were Mrs. Martina E. Sanders, Mrs. Carrie Maxwell, Mrs. G. Thompson and Mrs. M. Screven. A number of ladies were present during the afternoon, among whom were Mrs. Hattie Blake, Mrs. M. Campbell, Mrs. Ella Goodwin, Miss Gussie E. Freeman, Mrs. Julia Johuson, Mrs. Rosa Small, Miss S. Chisholm, Mrs. L. B. Massey, Mrs. Ellen Gibbons, Mrs Mamie' Trupe, Miss Julia Bynes. Among the grandest social events of the season was the celebration of their seventh annual anniversary by the Twilight Reapers Aid and Social Club at Odd-Fellows temple, Harris street on Tuesday evening last. Among the social clubs of the city the Twilight Reapers occupies a place in the front rank, and its members always see to it that whenever they announce an entertainment it is made first-class in every particular. The anniversary on Tuesday evening was no exception to this rule. The appearance of the ball was change to that of a well arranged parlor. By the enchanting music furnished by the Oriental orchestra, the vast number of guests present enjoyed themselves immensely in the whirls and glides, until supper was announced. This feature was also enjoyed, after which the dancing was resumed until 2 a.m. Too much praise can not be given Chairman Small and his corps of faithful committeemen who had this grand affair in charge. Tles Broken by Death. After an illness of some length, Mrs. Lavinia Foster, wife of Mr. C. W. Foster died on Monday afternoon last. For some time she was under the care of a specialist at Sandersville, but having not improved she was brought back home about four weeks ago. Mrs. Foster was about twenty-six years of age and leaves a loving husband, sister, other relatives and a host of friends to mourn her death. Her funeral services were largely attended and were very pathetic. The bereaved husband, has the sympathy of his friends. Odd-Fellows Day. The Odd-Fellow lodges in the city are preparing to celebrate the Thanksgiving day of this Order in May. The joint committee of the several lodges met on Monday night and perfected these arrangements.
