VOL. XVIII. TURN TO NICARAGUA Colombia May Finally Reject Panama Canal Treaty. OUTLOOK SEEMS DUBIOUS In Case Compact is Turned Down Negotiations for Nicaragua Route Will Probably Dr. Thomas Herran, Colombian charge d'affaires at Washington, said Tuesday that he had not been advised by his government that President Marroquin had resigned, as reported in dispatches from Panama. If it shall appear shortly that the Colombian government is unwilling to consummate the treaty, or is disposed to defer final action beyond the "reasonable time" mentioned in the Spooner act, the state department will at once endeavor to respond negotiations with Nicaragua and Costa Rica with the view of securing control of the alternate route for a canal through those countries. In fact, Secretary Hay has already within the week talked with Senator Corey, the Nicaraguan minister, and Senator Calvo, the minister from Costa Rica. It is said by parades to the negotiations that if they are resumed it will be upon the distinct understanding that the United States government definitely abandon the Panama route. No much ill feeling was excited in Nicaragua and Costa Rica by the dropping of the Nicaragua route after the protocols had been drawn, looking to its acquisition, that the resident ministers of the two countries in Washington are very loath to take up the subject again, without an express agreement that they are not to be used to club the Colombian government into terms. The capital officials, however, feel very confident that it will not be necessary to resort again to the Nicaraguan route, for they believe that the present difficulties in the Panama negotiations are solely attributable to efforts on the part of the Colombians to make the most of the opportunity to induce the Panama Canal Company to divide with it some part of the $40,000,000 to be received by the company from the United States. Rejection of Treaty Predicted. Newspapers just received in Colon from Bogota the capital, contain articles adverse to the Panama canal treaty and private letters from Bogota of recent date, referring to the growing opposition there to the treaty, affirm that even a certain number of the government offices are wavering in their adherence to the treaty and prophesy its rejection by the Colombian congress in its present form. Denial Made by Cromwell. William Nelson Cromwell, general consul of the new Panama Canal Company at Washington, makes public a statement regarding current reports affecting the company, including that emanating from Panama, that the company had offered the Colombian government $12,000,000 of the $40,000,000 the company is to receyfe from the United States. The statement is as follows: "The new Panama Canal Company has not made a proposal to pay $12,000,000, nor any sum whatever, to the Colombian government, nor to any parties whatsoever, for, or in connection with the ratification of the pending treaty. Statements to the contrary are absolutely without the slightest foundation." CHARITIES CONFERENCE ENDS. Great Gathering Adjourns in Atlanta After a Week of Brilliant Work.

CZAR COURTS WAR Prepares for Hostilities Over the Manchurian Affair. Strong Probability of Alliance Between the United States, England and Japan to Oppose Attitude of Russians. A Washington special says: The state department has received official confirmation from its agents in China of the increase of the Russian garrison in Neu Chwang, Manchuria, and there is reason to believe, if President Roosevelt approves, that it is preparing to take vigorous steps in the matter. Secretary Hay, was in communication Friday with President Roosevelt in California as to the course to pursue. It is stated that the department has had its patience tried by the course of the events in Manchuria and that it now contemplates a more radical step than any which has heretofore marked the negotiations between the powers on this subject. The proposed step contemplates joint action by Japan, England and the United States. The preceding negotiations have been hampered by the inability of this government to act jointly with other nations without violating /its traditions, but it is now hinted that some plan of co-operation with England and Japan may be devised that will have the effect of convincing the Russian government of the united determination of the three nations to insist upon Russia's evacuation of Manchuria, while not actually committing the United States to a formal alliance. This program is subject to the approval of the president. If it is not looked upon with favor by him the state department may fall back on its former method of individual representations to Russia and ask another explanation of the happenings in Manchuria. In such event the Russian answer is already forecast by the officials in Washington. Under the Russian representation to the powers the troops were to have been withdrawn from Neu Chwang just one month ago Friday. Pledge Violated. It is understood, as a matter of fact, that a portion of the Russian force was withdrawn from barracks in Nou Chwang, to tents outside. It is presumed from Pekin advices that those troops have now returned to the city. However, it is pointed out that Russia employed a saving clause in the promise to withdraw from Manchuria, the language being "Provided, however, that the action of other powers shall not stand in the way." Russia, it is understood, now claims that this proviso was violated by Japan when she mobilized her fleet and otherwise showed signs of military preparations which were a menace to Russia. Accompanying the news of the reoccupation of Neu Chwang comes a warning from other agents in China that the Russian attitude is injuring the chances of the treaty which Mr. Conger and Consul General Goodnow have been negotiating with China involving the opening to American trade of the ports of Taku-Shan and Moukden in Manchuria. Advices from Pekin. According to dispatches from the Chinese capital, the Russians, it is stated, have reoccupied Neu Chwang with a large force and have also put garrisons in the fort at the mouth of Liao river. They are further reported to be making extensive warlike preparations. The news of Russian activity, which comes from a, most trustworthy source at Ney Chwang adds (that on their return to New Chwang the Russian troops brought with them several large guns. A large force has been ordered to reoccupy Tien-Chwang-Tal. The Russians have 14,000 troops between the mouth of the Liao river and Port Arthur. John Howard, Prominent Citizen of Quincy Shot from Ambush. John T. Howard, a prominent citizen of Quincy, Fla., was shot from ambush and instantly killed Monday night while on his way to his plantation in Liberty county. The news reached Quincy at daybreak Tuesday. He was riding in his buggy within three miles of his country place when he was shot twice with ouchshot. A turpentine man, who chanced to be passing, found him in his buggy dead. The motive for the murder is not known. SHORTS IN A PANIC Cotton Bulls Again Heave Price of Staple Skyward. Operators on New York Exchange Fight Desperate Around Pit Europe and South Buy for Short Account. The cotton market closed at New York Monday with almost a panic among the shorts. The late demand exceeded anything the market has seen in some time. May cotton closed at 11.18 bid and 11.20 asked, a now high record, and nearly the whole list was at top notch prices. May sold at 11.20 just before the close. There was heavy local, European and southern buying for the short account, and trading was wild and feverish. Spot cotton sold during the day at 11.30. While May was strong, the excitement centered in July and August. May opened at 11.15, but the bulls threw heavy blocks on the market, which checked the carry advance; then July and August began to soar. July sold at 10:50 ten minutes after the opening. While August advanced to 10.20, making the season's record for all three options. For half an hour the excitement and turmoil were intense. Brokers fought around the pit in their efforts to get near the rolling and attract the attention of operators across the ring, who had something to sell and they wanted to buy. In the midst of the excitement reports from New Orleans revealed an advance in July there to 11.80, as compared with 11 recorded on Friday and 11.40 on Saturday of last week. This served to increase the feverishness existing in all directions and further buying orders were executed before midday. The bull party, by taking advantage of the demand unloaded and checked the advance and the market quieted before noon. The market continued fairly easy till near the close, when the scramble of the shorts began again. Prices covered a range of a dollar a bale in this market from Saturday's closing quotation and $1.50 to $2 a bale in New Orleans. Prices soared at the commencement of the business, going up by leaps and bounds on trading 20 to 25 points locally and 30 to 40 points at New Orleans. The Liverpool markets were almost equally excited. There spot cotton advanced 10 points, or equivalent to $1 a bale in our fluctuations to the basis of 5s 8d per pound for middling cotton, which is equivalent to 11.60 cents in our market. At all points all previous high records for cotton options and also spot cotton on this season's crop were surpassed. Spot cotton here is held at about 11.15 cents per pound and 10 3-4 cents at New Orleans, against 9 3-4 last year. There has not been anything like the equivalent of these high prices since the last week of January, 1901, when option and spot cotton in this market was forced up to 12 cents a pound. That was the highest record for cotton since 1890, when it sold in January of that year in this market at 12 3-4 and about 7d per pound in Liverpool, after a prolonged session of bull speculation. APPROVE ACT OF CHAMBERMAID. Citizens of Senioa, Georgia, Make Up Purse for Miss Hadley. The citizens of Senoia, Ga., made up a purse of $10 Monday afternoon and sent the same to Miss Louise Hadley, the chambermaid at the Hotel English. Indianapolis, who was discharged from the services of the hotel a few days ago for refusing to make up the bed occupied the night before by Booker T. Washington, an account of which appeared in the public prints. The money was sent to Miss Hadley in token of appreciation of her conduct in refusing to condescend to perform such service. Raid Into Section of Mindanao Expected to Have Good Effect.

The column experienced no opposition after the fighting at Taraca. The prisoners captured at Taraca took the oath of allegiance to the United States and were released. Among the Moros killed in the Taraca forts were nine dattos and one sultan. The moral effect of this fight will be Or-reaching. PRESS NOW MUZZLED. Governor Pennypacker, of Pennsylvania Signs the Muchly-Discussed New Libel Act. Governor Pennypacker, of Pennsylvania, approved the Grady-Salus libel bill Tuesday, and at the same time issued a long statement giving the reasons for his action. The bill, which was in the governor's hands for more than a month, goes into effect immediately, and it repeals all laws or parts of laws inconsistent with the new act. The governor claims in his statement there is nothing in the terms of the measure which prevents any newspaper from making such comments upon legislative measures or upon the official acts of state, municipal, county, or public officers as are proper information of the public or are in the line of legitimate public discussion. Continuing, he says: "The bill in its application is not confined to officials, but affects as well the citizen or business man, whose conduct constitutes no part of the right of the public to information. The corporation officer who has been falsely charged with crime; the manufacturer who is falsely accused of being a drunken brawler; the woman whose domestic griefs have been unfeelingly paraded, or whose chastity is improperly suspected; the student who has been falsely accused of murder; the clergyman who has been cruelly maligned; the quiet citizen whose peace of mind has been destroyed by the publication of evil gossip; the merchant whose credit has been affected by groundless rumors; the sufferers from reckless but not necessarily malicious publications, are given the right not to prohibit publication, but to recover damages which they have sustained, provided they prove negligence or lack of care on the part of the publishing newspapers. "All of these are instances of what has, in fact, recently occurred. A mayor of our city has been called traitor, a senator of the United States has been denounced as a yokel with soden brain, and within the last quarter of a century two presidents of the United States have been murdered, and in each instance, the cause was easily traceable to inflammatory and careless newspaper utterances. A cartoon in a daily journal of May 2 defines the question with entire precision. An ugly little dwarf representing the governor of the commonwealth stands on a crude stool. The stool is subordinate to and placed alongside a huge printing press with wheels as large as those of an ox cart, and all are so arranged as to give the idea that when the press starts the stool and its occupant will be thrown to the ground. "Put into words, the cartoon asserts to the world that the press is above the law' and greater in strength than the government. No self-respecting people will permit such an attitude to be long maintained. In England a century ago the offender would have been drawn and quartered and his head stuck upon a pole without the gates. In America today this is the kind of arrogance which goeth before a fall." The governor also says that many years' experience on the bench has led him to the conclusion that crimes are widely propagated not by the malice, but by the recklessness of the press and that in certain classes of cases, among them murder, the accused were at times convicted or acquitted before they reached the court room. Governor Pennypacker says the reputable press need have no fear of the operation of the law, but that it will have a repressive effect upon the evil tendencies of modern journalism. RUSSIA GIVES ASSURANCES. Official Edict Sent Forth that All of Manchuria Has Open Door. The Russian charge, M. Plancon, at Pekin, China, has given reassurances regarding Manchuria. He has issued an official notice that all Manchuria is open to foreign travel and adds that passports are no longer necessary. ROADS FORM AN ALLIANCE. Gould Interests and Seaboard Work Together for Southern Outlet. It is reported in Chicago that the Gould interests have formed an alliance with those of the Seaboard Air Line by which the former will obtain an outlet to the south Atlantic ports, which they are understood to have been seeking for some time. Colombian Congress Has Been Called. Official news has just reached the isthmus from the capital, Bogota, to the effect that the Colombian congress has been called for June 20. NOW COMES BRYAN And Says That Cleveland Has Not One Single Chance. At the Same Time, Nebraskan Takes Occasion to Hurl a Cyclone of Hot Air at Several Prominent Newspapers. The News, of Newark, New Jersey, prints the following from its Lincoln, Nebr., correspondent: William J. Bryan received The News correspondent very cordially at his country residence, 4 miles from Lincoln. A typewriting machine was clicking busily in the upstairs room and the farm hands were at work in the adjoining fields. Mr. Bryan's red brick house is more modern and more pretentious than the somewhat old-fashioned home of Grover Cleveland at Princeton. Mr. Bryan would not submit to an interview unless the questions were written and the answers recorded verbatim as he spoke them. "Is it possible for Grover Cleveland to receive the democratic nomination next year, Mr. Bryan?" "There is not the remotest possibility of Mr. Cleveland becoming the nominee. Even his staunchest friends would not risk him as a candidate," said Mr. Bryan. "But Mr. Cleveland has apparently come out of retirement and many suppose he is seeking the nomination," remarked the News man. "I am not in Mr. Cleveland's confidence," said Mr. Bryan, "and, therefore, cannot give any inside explanation, but as an outsider, I venture to say that his purpose is to positively refuse to be a candidate after awhile and then allow his friends to say that he would have been nominated and elected had he not refused to run. This might afford Mr. Cleveland some satisfaction as a salve for the bruises which he has nursed since 1896. "There is a tale of the democratic party which was very nearly pulled out seven years ago, that is just as monopolistic in its tendencies as the republican party is. There are also a number of newspapers, and I will name a few of them: The Chicago Chronicle, Nashville American, Louisville Courier-Journal, Boston Herald, Philadelphia Ledger, New York Times, Brooklyn Eagle and some others. This class of newspapers can be relied upon to support any republican policies. "This class of newspapers represent as public sentiment that which they desire the people to think is public sentiment." Mr. Bryan said this in a way which made it plain that he thought this is just what was done in the extensive comments of the ovation given Mr. Cleveland at St. Louis on dedication day. Mr. Cannon Declares Body Will be Called to Meet in November. A special session of congress will be called to meet November 9 next. This announcement was made at Lincoln, Nebr., Saturday evening during the visit of Congressman Joseph G. Cannon, of Illinois. Mr. Cannon said: "I believe there will be a special session of congress called to meet November 9; isn't that the way you understand it?" said he, turning to Congressman Burkett, whose guest he is. Mr. Burkett assented. It was given out later that Mr. Cannon met President Roosevelt during the latter's visit to St. Louis, and that the two had a conference on this matter, that the determination to call a special session of congress was then reached, and it was agreed or, at least, understood that it should not be announced until some later date. Congressman Cannon discussed the needs of legislation relating to islands affairs, and said that the reciprocity measures not enacted by the last congress were greatly needed. Mr. Cannon is in Nebraska, looking after property interests. MACHEN GETS THE BOUNCE. Superintendent of Free Delivery System Relieved of Duty. The investigation of the affairs of the postoffice department at Washington which had been dragging along for two months, took a startling turn late Friday afternoon, when, by order of Postmaster General Payne, August W. Machen, general superintendent of the free system, and one of the most widely known government officials in the United States, was relieved from duty and Postoffice Inspector A. C. Fosnes was designated to take charge of that service. --- The Savannah Tribune. PUBLISHED EVERY SATURDAY BY THE TRIBUNE PUBLISHING CO. 116 W. St. Julian Street. Gn. Phone 574. SUBSCRIPTION RATES. One Year. $1.25 Six Months. 75 Three Months. 50 Once Offer made in advance by Express or Post Office Number, or Registered Letter. Advertising Rates given on application. SATURDAY MAY 16, 1903. In this city there are a number of persons of color who receive their support wholly from colored people, yet on several occasion when they have money to spend they will go to the opposite race although there are men of their race who could give them the same satisfaction. Some professional men and ministers of the gospel are guilty of this offense. The assertion that no graduate of the public school has ever been convicted of crime in this county is not "prolematical" as Mr. Ashmore says. The TRIBUNE is willing to assert that seventy-five per cent of the boys who are on the chain gang have had no more than primary teaching and the others have not finished the grammar course. THE Chicago Conservator claims that in the Southern States there are colored women who are prostituted by white men, yet are leaders in social and church affairs. THE TRIBUNE is not conversant with affairs in other communities, but so far as Savannah is concerned the charge is a malicious one. It is not doubted that there are Negro women who are sufficiently based to place themselves with white men, but when it comes to their prominence in social and church affairs, especially in the best circle and more prominent churches, they are non-entities. At the National Conference of Charites and Corrections last week in Atlanta, an assertion was made by Commissioner Turner of this state to the effect that a number of colored criminals are not convicted in the courts on account of the friendship manifested for them. While Mr. Turner is a member of the prison commission and should be in a position to know what he spoke about, yet it is seriously doubted. Any person that happens to frequent our courts and keep up with the records would refute the assertion. It is known that upon the least pretext colored persons accused are convicted and given heavy sentences. The records of the city and recorder's courts of this city will bear this out. THE constant readers of THE TRIBUNE are aware of its incessant efforts for another school building for our children. For years it has labored in this direction. In these efforts a few public spirited citizen joined and succeeded two years ago in securing two grades now being taught at the Duffy street hall. Knowing that this was not sufficient for the large number of children that are not able to secure accommodation the agitation was continued. About seven months ago a meeting of citizens was held and the question gone over thoroughly and resulted in the appointment of a committee composing of Revs. J. J. Durham, T. B. Lillard, Messra A. L. Tucker, E. E. DesVerney, and Sol. C. Johnson, to wait on the board of education and impress them with the necessity of another school building. In this matter the committee acted faithfully. A memorial was presented to the board, which was referred to the committee on education. Finding that the committee on education. It in this matter the committee delayed in reporting, the grand jury was appealed to with strong arguments by Rev. Durham and Mr. Tucker. It was found out that in its recommendation to the grand jury the board of education failed to mention or recommend the need of another school building. Under the circumstances another appeal had to be made to the board. On Friday of last week Rey. Lillard, Messra. Tucker, DesVerney and Johnson called on Col. Mercer, who made a frank statement concerning affairs. He promised his support in the recommendation of a new school building and at a meeting of the board on Monday night this was done and the grand jury was asked to give $30,000. The grand jury will no doubt make this in its pressurments and it will be up to the county commissioners to make the appropriation. Hawkinsville Briefs. The Teachers Institute was represented with teachers from Wilcox, Pulaski, Dodge, Baldwin, and Hancock counties. Prof. Barnes principal of the Sunshine school at Sparta, Ga., had a very nice display of his pupils' work at the Institute. He is to be highly complimented for the interest in the education of his children. He is not only giving them book learning but an industrial learning that should be taught in all schools. The works of the children are not to be excelled any where by any school black or white. Mr. Samuel Coffe, a well known citizen and farmer of Pulaski died at his home seven miles north of town on Tuesday and was brought to town on Wednesday for burial. Dr. R. Carey of Macon was hand shaking among his friends last week. On account of the steady down pour of the rain on Friday evening of last week, the Ladies Social Club failed to have their regular meeting. They often get stones thrown at them, but the members don't mind. It is only some one who knows that they cannot get in that find so much fault, so the L. S. C. has decided that we may go through this world, but it will bevery slow, if we listen to all that is said as we go, we will be worried and fretted and be always in a stew, for meddlesome tongues must have something to do, for people must talk you know. Prof. D. M. Smith principal of the Dublin public school was in the city Sunday inviting the Hawkinsville people over to his commencement. The G. U. O. of O. F., the Hawkinsville Delight No. 2803, had their annual sermon preached on Sunday last at Springfield Baptist church. The Mattie lodge was up with them. The house was packed to its uttermost capacity. The angel death came Sunday at 12 o'clock and called Mrs Clarisa Banner to her haven of rest. She leaves a husband, one son and a sister together with friends to mourn her death. She was buried with honor on Monday by the United Sisters of Zion. Mrs. Anna Daniels and Miss Rosa Sims were elected as delegates to the Hawkinsville District Convention from the Springfield Baptist Sunday school Woodyille Dots. On Sunday night last Pilgrim Congregational church was overcrowded with the exception of the aisle which was kept clear for the bridal party. There was a large number of people who could not gain admittance, and carriages and wagons surrounded the building. The large gathering came from the city, and from miles around Woodville to witness the occasion. When the pastor entered there was no standing room. Our musical director, Mr James W Ferguson, who is a member of the Middleton band in Savannah, provided excellent music. After the services a wedding march was played. flower girls entered and strew flowers in their pathway and around the altar. Behind them came the bride leaning on her father, and followed by the rest of the bridal party. The ceremony was performed by the pastor. The bride, Miss Elizabeth Henry, completed her education at Beach Institute. She is the daughter of Deacon Win Henry, who is the senior deacon of Pilgrim church and a prominent Odd-Fellow her mother grew up in this church and was baptized by the present pastor when she was a little girl. He married her to her present husband. Miss Henry was baptized when an infant, and she united with this church when quite young. Mr Edmond Verdier, the groom, is a leading member of Fafalaw Baptist church and is well thought of by the community. He has made his home a meeting and administered the Lord's Supper at our church at Givens. The meetings were well attended. Everybody seemed to have been happy in and around the village. Our Baptist brethren in the morning made many happy by their baptisms and the Congregationalists in the evening by the wedding. Woodville is moving on, but one fault I find is, we like the rest of many people do not know the value of a good newspaper, especially colored ones, like THE TRIBUNE, Gazette, etc. Every family should take at least three papers, his local, church, and a good magazine. We be blessed by having two educated physicians here, Dr McKane and his wife, but like the press, our people do not know the advantage of having such people in our midst. It is very encouraging to read of the colored bank and the doings of our business men of Savannah. It is high time that we began to walk. Judging from our reading in THE TRIBUNE there is a "mixer" and a "muxer" between the two colored ministers' unions of city, city. We bless them both, and since the book is inimitable on the water question, God grant that they be led by the Holy Spirit and become one united and loving body in Christ Jesus. Our people should stop using the word "nigger," especially the educated; since it refers to character and not color. The white murderer is just as much a "nigger" as the black chicken thief. Another hateful word should be eliminated from our vocabulary, namely the wrd "dark man""; its too close kin to the "darkee." We say, there comes a white man, why not say, there comes a black man. The works of God are all good, therefore a black man is just as good as his brother in white. Once more the Supreme Court of the United States in the Alabama case has decided against us; time will bring justice. Where is the Supreme Court of 1857 and where is slavery? That generation toled and mourned, this one goes to college and is grand and glad. Before our children there is grand future if we train them in the right way. The minutes of the twelfth annual meeting of the Georgia Convention which met last November with the First Congregational church of Savannah, is one of the best we have seen, and reflects much credit on those who had the management of it. -J. H. H. Sengetacke. Judge Matthews' Views. of splendid ability that they have that could reflect credit upon her as her chosen representative. It is like the first; every one expect Col. J. H. Deveaux to go from there of course. The first like the tenth one expect Col. J. H. Deveaux to go from Doyle, Joseph F. Doyle, Hon. S. B. Morne and Postmaster Blum and others, yet one never hear of the name of any one in the first but Col. Deveaux. Another peculiar phase of the political prognosticator is Cols. W. A. Pledger and his district. I say that is not necessary for Col Pledger is also a national character and it would be to Georgia's credit to have him go from the state at-large; yet there is nothing wrong in him going from his district. Do he must for any delegation without him? would be a conglomeration of misfits for his duty to go forward and arrange all of the many details incident to a delegation's comfort on so long a trip, I simply mention these facts to show the drift of the public mind out in the rural districts and to show those who take an interest in the state and that is a settled selection in the minds of the many for the state at-large. Now in the eleventh we have the finest crop of would be delegates in the state. The above is to show the trend of the crop of would be candidates and the common talk of each county in which one goes. Each county has its own aspirants and favored sons. Glynn has her cor. H. T. Hewlett, W. W. Warre, Dr. Washington Brown, Chairman Sawyer, and others, Lowndes Col. Wilkerson, and Postmaster M. T. Ray, Wm. Jones, Rev. Forest and Bang Howell Ware, Dr. Washington plunging; S. S. Sellers, P. H. Hall, Camden; John Holzendorf, A. Wilson, Postmaster Brinkins, Laurens; Postmaster Greil, J. J. Jenkins, Allen L. Simmons, Telfair, F. Strong, Rew Gould, Dodge, Rev Burny, G. W. Bowen, Irwin, Postmaster Marsten, J. L. Paulk. There are many more but they are in the woods yet, but you can see them above we will be well represented. Of course no one has even conjectured to name but one man so far for President. He has conjectured that the masses and I do not believe that there is a living man that could beat him for the nomination or election. He has caught the straw of to-day. Editor this is the political straw of to-day. St. Philip's Dots. Sunday was very disagreeable, and the attendance at each service was very small. On Tuesday morning at 5 o'clock, Bro. Moses Carter, one of St. Philips old and respected members, died at the Georgia Infirmary. Bro. Carter was in a railroad collision, and had the misfortune of having his leg broken in three places. Bro. Carter was sent to the hospital to have his leg set, but the shock was too great. He was well liked by every one that knew him. He had also been a sexton of this church for a number of years. He died triumphant in Christ. Bro. Percy Joiner, one of St. Philips, young members died at Bluffton, S. C., on Tuesday afternoon after a short illness. Bro. Joiner was about 25 years old. He was a good and faithful member. He lived a Christian and died a Christian. He was buried at Bluffton on Wednesday afternoon. Bro.

E, with the transcendent reasoning of Dr. R. H. Singleton, the fine ethics of Rev. G. L. Word, D D, and the consumate skill and sagacity of that invincible parliamentary debater, Rev. R. M. S.

"But lay up yourselves treasures in heaven," subject "A safe place for our good things," which was presented in a clear and forceful manner. Rev.

Milton reported a sermon from Rev. 6.17, subject "Great days." Rev. H. L. Haywood did not presach last Sunday, but stated that the two white ministers from the Southern Baptist Convention, presached able sermons. Dr. Durham made a similar statement. Rev. R.

ERS rec ee paneer ‘The ‘first care of the schoolathletic trainer should be to remember that he ls training boys, and that he bas not tull-grown men under his charge. Tho growing boy fs capable of a great deal of work, but this should not be made too severe, or he will lose the nervous force which Is at the bottom of all suc- cess in any kind of athletics. The exercise should be made as pleasant a3 possible, and tho young athlete should not be allowed to speciallze, or at least not 1m the same manner as the full-grown athlete, It 1s all very woll for tho young athlete to have his favorite event, and to have one In which he 1s most proficient; but bo shouldalso have a certain amount of sprinting, distance running, hurdling, Jumping, and especially exercise in some form of light gymnastics, such as the’ chest-welghts, Indian clubs, or duzbolls. Thiz will give him the necessary reinforcing or auxiliary muscles which ke will need later on, when, as 2 eollege man, he makes a real specialty of some event. By glv- Ing the young athicte exercise that tends to an alliound development, the trainer will be fulfilling the object af sebolastic athleties—which Is to send tho young man forth from the school fitted for coflego not only In niind but In body as well.
