Nearly two hundred property owners among the negroes on Pleasant Hill, a portion of the newly annexed territory of Macon, are said to be resisting the efforts to collect their property taxes, and its was stated by one of the colored residents that a purpose had been reached to employ counsel and fight the collection of the money on the ground that they had nothing to do with being annexed, but on the other hand fought it strenuously. --- Gave Teacher a Black Eye. Because Professor E. E. Treadwell, principal of the Decatur high school, had whipped his son, George, the father claiming that the chastisement had been without mercy, and the professor asserting with equal emphasis that the rod had been used with moderation, W. S. Ansley walked into the school house and attacked him in the presence of many of the pupils. Professor Treadwell was badly bruised in the assault. The encounter between the teacher and the parent was ventilated in the mayor's court, the result being that the pupil was fired and Ansley is now under a $200 bond to the superior court. --- Fraudulent Naturalization Alleged. Warrants have been sworn out at Savannah by Immigrant Inspector Curry at the instance. of Assistant District Attorney Akerman, and upon information secured by both of them against about a dozen foreigners, principally Greeks, who have recently taken out naturalization papers and registered to vote in the approaching elections. It is said about fifty or more will be arrested. Some of those against whom charges have been made were arrested for fraudulently securing naturalization papers, while others are charged with having falsely sworn to the rights of the first to secure naturalization.

Johnson gives out a statement demonstrating the wonderful results which have been attained in this state, as a reason why Georgians who are interested in the prosperity of their state should promptly respond to this call. President Johnson has received a number of responses from various sections of the state with checks inclosed, but the result has by no means been such as he felt justified in expecting. First Train is Welcomed. The first freight train over the Atlanta, Birmingham and Atlantic railroad reached Talbotton a few days ago, and was met at the depot site by nearly half the population; and the officers of the road, who accompanied the train, were warmly received. Passenger train service will be inaugurated in a short time between Talbotton, Brunswick and Waycross. The new stations between Montezuma and Talbotton are as follows: Oglethorpe, Maybrick, Idealfi Southland, Rupert, Flem, Mauks, Rabbl and Paschal, nearly all of these points have a very bright future, and will in a few years be prominent trading centers. --- Gamblers in "Futures" Can't Recover. By a decision of the Georgia supreme court handed down a few days ago the so called "bucket shops" are not compelled to make good or return money to those customers who try to make money on "futures" but lose. It was the ruling of the court that any business which paid a license for the carrying on of a certain business was so far legalized that money lost could not be recovered through suits brought on the ground that such business was gambling and against the statutes of the state. As the so called bucket shops paid a license of $1,000 for carrying on just this sort of business, the customers who tried to make money but lost could not recover on the ground of gambling. The case was that of Shropshire against Miller & Co., brokers in Atlanta, in which Shropshire alleged that he lost $490 on "futures" and so sued for its return. The case was carried from a justice court to the supreme court. ★ ★ ★ Daily Bulletins for Farmers Forecaster Marbury of the weather bureau at Atlanta, is making arrangements for having the daily forecasts and special weather bulletins sent direct to many farmers in all parts of Georgia so that they will be notified of the forecasts in plenty of time to many needed plans for the caring P. EDWARD PERRY, Vice President, of stock or the protecting of fruit trees, etc. He has secured the headquarters of forty-four telephone companies in different parts of the state, which are also rural phones, reaching the homes of many farmers who are among the subscribers. Each morning the forecast for the day and the next day will be telegraphed to the headquarters of these telephone companies, and then the centrals will call up each of the subscribers and notify them of what may be expected in the way of weather. This will also be of special benefit in the sending out of special bulletin warnings of approaching cold waves and heavy storms and will greatly increase the efficiency of the weather bureau in all parts of the state. Macon is Promised River Traffic. Assurance of river traffic for Macon in the form of a communication from E. A. Thompson, a boat owner in Brunswick, asking opportunity to bring up a steamer at the moment the river bed is opened and cleared of snags. He assured the Macon chamber of commerce that a speedy trip could be made and desired that steps be taken at once to secure a cargo. Mr. Thompson was among the most successful operators of steamers on the Dcmulgee river to Macon several years ago, and is anxious to renew the traffic. Other owners are expressing like anxiety and their good intentions will be tested as soon as the government drags the river between Macon and Hawkinsville within the next month. * * * Sell Land to Immigrants. A mass meeting was held in Eatonton to consider the question of immigration and how to meet the present unsatisfactory labor conditions. It was organized by electing Senator G. W. Adams chairman and Editor Roy D. Stubbs secretary. The facts as collected by Hon. John T. Dennis the past few weeks were laid before the meeting, and showed that good, thrifty farm laborers, either German, English, Poles or Slavs, could be had for $20 per month and board. The cost of transportation from New York would be $12 per head. Quile a full and interesting discussion of the question, covering all its phases, was had, and, as a result, a committee of five interested persons were appointed to make thorough investigations as to what can be done: First, for the immediate relief of the present situation; second, for the future permanent solution of the perplexing conditions; third, towards getting land owners in the county, through a local syndicate, to place on the market for sale at least 10 per cent of their lands at a reasonable price as an inducement to the right kind of immigrants to come and in- B.W.

GIRL ASSAILED AND KILLED. Resisted Would-Be Ravisher and Bullet Ended Her Life. While returning home from school, Margaret Lear, aged 15 years, was attacked in the public road near her homef two miles west of Shreveport, La., Monday afternoon by a negro who attempted to criminally assault her. The young girl struggled with the man and screamed several times. The negro then drew a pistol, and, pressing its muzzle against the girl's neck, fired. The girl fell unconscious to the ground, and her assailant fled to the woods. Negroes who witnessed the act immediately gave the alarm. Miss Lear was dying when neighbors reached the scene, and died within a few minutes after she was removed to her home. The negro was apprehended by a posse led by Sheriff Ward two hours after the murder in a cabin not far from the scene of the crime. He gave his name as Charles Coleman, and has been employed in the shops of the Kansas City Southern railway, in Shreveport, and was at once lodged in jail before the crime had become generally known. One hundred armed men, composed of officers, soldiers and private citizens were quickly placed on guard inside the Lulding. DEPOSITORS WITHDRAW FUNDS. Rumors Start Run on Jackson Trust and Savings Bank in Chicago. A run was started Tuesday on the Jackson Trust and Savings Bank in Chicago, it being thought by many of the depositors that the institution is involved by the failure of the Bank of America a few days ago. At the hour set for the opening of the bank 300 depositors were in waiting and as soon as the doors were opened they commenced to withdraw their funds. It is known that the institution is a loser through loans to F. C. Creelman, whose loans from the Bank of America were the immediate cause of the closing of that concern. DEATH MENACES HENDERSON.

GREAT ARMY OF EDUCATION COOLIES IN SOUTH AFRICA CALL FOR AN EXPLANATION The army of education in the United States is made up of 450,000 teachers, of whom 120,000 are men and 330,000 women. The overwhelming majority of the teachers are natives of the United States, less than 30,000 having been born abroad—one in fifteen. Most of the male teachers are between the years of 25 and 35. The majority of the women teachers are between 15 and 25. There are 2,300 male teachers over 65. There are less than 1,500 female teachers over 65. Three times as many female as male teachers are put down as "age unknown." There are 21,000 colored teachers in the United States, thus divided between the two sexes 7,700 men and 13,300 women. There are 500 Indian teachers in the Indian schools of the Writes an observer in South Africa: "The Chinese are everywhere. You see them in the streets of the towns, on the platforms of the railway stations, or about the Rand. There are now nearly 50,000 of them scattered up and down a slice of country about forty miles in length. Some are working in mines which are practically in Johannesburg itself. Yesterday morning I was walking down Commissioner street, when I came across thirty of them at work digging out the foundations of a new hotel. They were prisoners serving terms of hard labor, and were leased out to the contractor at one shilling a head a day. And they were employed in the very center of Johannesburg. Out at Knight's I saw a huge camp where 1,400 more Chinese prisoners are at work making a deviation of the railway line from Germsion to Boksburg. Now, what are you going to do with a story like this, when it comes from two dignified, veracious men, who solemnly declare it to be true? David and Zebulon, bachelors, are old cronies—not so old that they have to tie their teeth in with brown yarn, you understand, but old enough to have settled down to the serious matters of life, such as hair invigorators and obegity belts. For a long time they have lived together, occupying adjoining rooms, between which the door is seldom closed. According to the testimony of both, neither of them is given to talking in his sleep. The other night, however, Zebulon dreamed that he was telling a funny story to David. It seemed excruciatingly funny to Zebulon and he was annoyed at David's apparent inability to see the humor of it, so he told it again, emphasizing the point of the joke so energetically that he actually spoke aloud, thus waking himself. He was sure he had spoken, for when he --- niums. Secretary and Treas. Society Manager. S. W. H. Burgess. J. H. Bugg, M. D. C. F. Jones. J. M. Ferrebee.

Everywhere mission: Savannah, Georgia. OF EDUCATION United States—240 men and 260 women. The average age of teachers in the United States is higher than in England and lower than in Germany. The proportion of very youthful teachers is much greater in the country than in the city districts. The largest proportion of male teachers is to be found in West Virginia, where they number 50 cent of the total. The largest proportion of women is to be found in Vermont, where they form 90 per cent of the whole number. The standard of education is very much higher in Vermont than it is in West Virginia. The number of teachers in the United States has increased greatly in recent years. In 1871 there were 125,000, in 1880, 225,000, in 1890, 340,000 and it is at present 450,000. "These sweepings of the Chinese prisons who are now overrunning a British colony, are not content with mere robbery. They do that as a matter of course. What those in isolated farms and lonely stores dread is the cry of 'Tsa, tsa!'—'Kill, kill!'—from the yellow fiends who roam over the veldt. People in the country dare scarcely go to bed at night. They gather at each other's houses for protection and companionship. "What wonder is it that terror reigns on the veldt, or that the country people are now all armed, and shoot first, when they see a Chinaman at night?" The same writer adds that these circumstances are hidden carefully from the outside world. The white men of South Africa—with the exception of the mine owners—he says, are satisfied that the introduction of coolie labor was a mistake. was well awake the tone of his own voice still lingered in his ears. For a moment he lay, trying to recall the story, which on the instant of waking, had vanished from his mind, when suddenly David, in the next room, uttered a loud laugh, which, in turn, awoke him. Zebulon hopped out of bed and went to David's room. "What are you laughing at?" he asked. "Did I laugh aloud?" David wanted to know. "I thought I did." "You certainly did. Were you asleep?" "Yes," said David; "I woke myself laughing at a funny story you were telling me." He then went ahead and told the story, which Zebulon recognized as the one he had dreamed of telling to David. Now, then, ye psychologists and metaphysicians, get to work on that and see what you can make of it.—Brooklyn Eagle. 1 A PORTRAIT BY JOHN TRUMBULL, 1790.

The Love Affairs George of Washington F that is your business here, sir, I wish you to leave the house. My daughter"—with a stingling emphasis in the words—"has been accustomed to ride in her own coach." Such were the haughty words which fell from' the lips of William Fauntleroy, Esq., a wealthy and aristocratic planter of Fredericksburg, Va. They were addressed to a blue-eyed lad of sixteen, who had just asked the planter's permission to make a proposal of marriage to his daughter, a pretty [Image of a portrait of a woman with long hair, wearing a white dress with a high collar.] MARTHA WASHINGTON. From a miniature painted in 1792 by John Trumbull, and now owned by Yale University. fourteen-year-old Iassie, who figures conspicuously in Washington's diary and letters for the next few years as "Mistress Betsy," "Beauteous Betsy," and the "Lowland Beauty." The home of the Fauntleroys, in which this first proposal was made, was a magnificent mansion, which stood within a beautiful park overlooking the river. Washington had first met the little lady a few weeks previously at the Fauntleroy plantation at Naylor's Hold, about fifteen > miles from Wakefield, his birthplace. It was a case of love at first sight. Years afterward George Washington is said to have declared, half smilingly, half seriously, that this first love affair was the most serious he ever had; then, as though suddenly recollecting himself, he added politely, "except the last one, which ended in my marriage." Some Poor Poetry. Among the autographic papers of George Washington, purchased of his descendants by the Government of the United States, and preserved in the library of the Department of State, are four poems, written in his youth—probably in his seventeenth year. Two of them are undoubtedly original, and are very bad verses. The other two are manifestly copied from some newspaper or magazine, perhaps from a book, without credit or reference to their authorship; but the boy who composed the other two could not possibly have written these, as will be seen by the slightest comparison. To Betray I the war, Trumbull had an opportunity to just trying and important incidents of his Washington in action, and are full of Trumbull first place for likeness. We affairs of Washington Fauntleroy was addressed one of the original poems, which is here reproduced, punctuated and capitalized as in the original: Oh, ye Gods, why should my Poor Resistless Heart. Stand to oppose thy might and Power. At last surrender to Cupid's feathered Dart And now lays bleeding every Hour For her that's Pityless of my grief and woes, And will not on me Pity take. When we read these dreadful effusions and those which follow we are almost inclined to sympathize with pretty Betsy in her rejection of the Father of His Country. To be a younger son with naught but a younger son's portion is surely bad enough, no matter how handsome the sultor, or how excellent his family. But when he also writes verses like these! A Persistent Sultor. It was certainly presumptuous in young Washington to alim so rich a bride. But he was bred a gentleman and a man of honor in the free school of Virginia society, and the consciousness of this fact led him to make a second attempt to secure the 'Lowland FAMOUS PAINTING BY E.

To the same haughty Mr. Fauntleroy he addressed a letter renewing his petition to be permitted to woo his daughter, "in the hope," he sentence, and see if I cannot find an says, "of a revocation of a former cruel alteration in my favor." The father's reply has not been preserved, but-evidently it was unfavorable. Mistress Betsy afterward became the wife of Thomas Adams, of Williamsburg. It is a tradition of the town that she married for money instead of love, and that Washington was rejected because he had less wealth than her other suitor. Years passed. After the victory of Yorktown, as he was on his way to Mount Vernon, he visited the town of Williamsburg, on passant, as the guest of the people. From the balcony of her beautiful home, his former sweetheart watched his triumphal pageant. As Washington passed on horseback he looked up at her balcony, smiled and saluted with his sword. The lady falted. A Susceptible Young Man. A Susceptible Young Man. In his "Old Churches and Families of Virginia," Bishop Mead says that Washington was an ardent admirer of Miss Mary Cary, the daughter of Col. Wilson Cary, for thirty-four years Collector of Customs at Hampton, Va. Col. Cary was a man of large wealth and aristocratic connections, his elder daughter having married the daughter of Lord Fairfax. Washington at one time asked Col. Cary's permission to pay his addresses to her, but was refused. The young lady afterward married Mr. Edward Ambler, who was a great swell among the colonial aristocracy, being a graduate of Cambridge and the owner of a large estate near Jamestown. Mrs. Ambler was a frequent guest at Mount Vernon after Washington's marriage, as his diary shows. This love story is only a sort of little interlude. Four years after his affair with Betsy Fauntleroy, Washington fell in love with Miss Mary Phillipse, the daughter of a prominent and wealthy Englishman, Frederick Phillipse, who lived in a superb mansion on the bank of the Hudson, near West Point. While on a journey to Boston in 1756 he met this young lady at the house of her brother-in-law, Col. Beverly Robinson, who lived in the same locality. After a few weeks' acquaintance he proposed to her, but the coquette, although she had accepted his attentions freely, now frankly informed him that she was engaged to another. The successful suitor was Capt. Roger Morris, a companion at arms, who, like Washington, was an aid to Gen. Braddock in the fatal Indian campaign. Miss Phillipse was two years older [Portrait of a woman with curly hair and a crown.] ELEANOR PARKE CUSTIS, Adopted daughter of George Washington.

Her husband fought on the British side during the Revolution, and all her family were extreme Royalists.

Now in City Hall. It was the most important piece of furniture in the President's office at Federal Hall, in Wall Street. WASHINGTON'S DESK AND DESK SEAT. Now in City Hall. At this desk the Father of His Country is said to have penned his first message to Congress. the British lines upon the discovery of his treachery. Madame Jumel, the Frenchwoman who married Anron Burr, afterwards purchased the estate and lived upon it. The Father of His Country was certainly extremely susceptible to feminine charms. Moreover, he was now no longer hampered in his love-making by an incompetent fortune. His brother Lawrence's death had changed everything for him. And then, too, he had acquired considerable military fame, which gave his name an additional luster in the eyes of the fair sex. Two years after he was jilted by Miss Phillipse, and when he had just returned from Fort Du Quesne, Capt. Washington was on his way to Williamsburg, the provincial capital, in military dress, attended by an orderly. In crossing the ferry over the Pamunkey River he fell in company with a Mr. Chamberlayne, a venerable gentleman who lived in the neighborhood, and who, in the spirit of old Virginian hospitality, claimed him as a guest. It was with difficulty Washington could be prevailed upon to remain to dinner, so impatient he was to arrive at Williamsburg. Among the guests at Mr. Chamberlayne's was a young and blooming widow, Mrs. Martha Custis, daughter of Mr. John Dandridge, both patrician names in the province. Her husband had been dead about three years, leaving her with his young children and a large fortune. Washington's heart appears to have been taken by surprise. The dinner was all, too short. The orderly was punctual to the order; he had received on halting; but for once the young soldier loitered in the path of duty. The afternoon passed away as in a dream. The horses were countermanded, and it was not until the next morning he was again in the saddle, spurring for Williamsburg. His time for courtship was brief; but he improved his opportunity to the utmost. Before they separated they had mutually pilgranted their faith, and their marriage was celebrated on the 6th of January, 1750, at the residence of the bride, in the good old hospitable style of Virginia, amid a joyous assemblage of relatives and friends.

Drummer's Quick Wit Dissolved Sternness of Merchant. The following story, told by W. P. Chamberlain, dry goods merchant of Keene, N. H., illustrates the quick wit of the commercial traveler of today: During a "special sale" day at his store Mr. Chamberlain had been bothered by an unusual number of "drummers" calling on him, taking his time and attention from his customers. Finally his usual good nature gave out, and, when approached by a little German from New York, looked sternly at him and said: "Young man, do you see that clock on the wall there?" "Yes, sir," replied the drummer. "Well, in just ten minutes by that clock I am going to shoot every 1 drummer I find in this store," said Mr. Chamberlain. "In ten minutes?" questioned the drummer. "That is what I said," Mr. Chamberlain replied, sternly. "Then I have just time to sell you a bill of goods," the drummer quickly said. He sold the goods. BLUSH PRODUCED BY SCIENCE Action Now Is a Mere Matter of Chemicals. The ornamental surgeon or beauty doctor took down a cut-glass bottle with a gold lid, such as is used for smelling salts? "Our latest, our most marvelous idea. Take a whiff," he said. The visitor pushed back the lid, smelt something pleasant and sharp, and felt a pleasant glow of heat pass through his frame. "Now you are blushing," said the surgeon. "You are blushing beautifully. You are a living proof that at last we ornamental surgeons can make blushes to order. "Yes," he went on, "for a long time we had been remaking complexions, straightening noses, removing scars and birthmarks, but the manufacture of blushes seemed beyond us. Now, though, we can make them, and see how simple it is—a mere matter of chemicals. "A young man proposes to you or you are detected in a generous action or a remark in bad taste is made in your presence. You should blush. So, presto! you whip out this bottle and are blushing beautifully. "We make a smaller blushing bottle, one so small it can be concealed in a handkerchief across your lips, and let a blush like roses." First Steam Warship. The Fulton, built as the Demologos, was the first steam warship. She was built in 1814 by Robert Fulton. In addition to the radical innovation of steam she was fitted with the wheel in the center. Her battery was composed of twenty long 32s and a submarine gun projecting a hundred pound shot. There was also a monster pump, to be used against the enemy by filling her with water through a porthole. In one hull was the boiler, of copper; in the other was the engine; the wheel was in the fifteen foot space between the two. She had four rudders, two at each end, and could go in either direction. At the end of the war of 1812 the Demologos was assigned to the navy yard in Brooklyn as receiving ship. While on this duty she was blown up, June 4, 1829, and twenty-six persons killed. It was popularly supposed that the explosion was caused by old sailors who wished to testify their disapproval of steam. Freak Ear of Corn. A farm hand shucking corn on the farm of Henry D.

Easy to Make Speed, but, of Course, Accidents Will Happen—Variation of Speed Productive of Sad Results on First Trial Trip. Parisians had a rare treat yesterday, when they got the first glimpse of a man with a pair of shiny hip boots sailing along the Avenue des Champs Elysees at the rate of about twenty-five miles an hour, with the marvelous boots serving as his motor ON THE ROAD power, says a dispatch from the French capital. The seven-league boots were a mere child's toy compared with the motor boots. The inventor is named Constantini, who, says he means to start for St. Petersburg in a few days per boot. Great crowds gathered all along his route to watch his flight over the smooth pavement of the avenue. The exhibition was a great success until he was about to turn toward Bols de Boulogne, when something went wrong with the motor. In one boot the motor hit up a pace of about thirty miles an hour, and in the other RAME TROUBLES AT AN AUTO foot the motor thought six miles was swift enough. The result of this difference of opinion between the two feet may be imagined. Constantini appeared to be ill at ease, and it was manifest that he was tired and wanted to rest. He sat down in the street, probably because he is very democratic, and really did not care a rap who saw him sitting on the pavement. To show his friends that he was not proud he sat down real hard, and then held his breath for about five minutes and appeared to be engaged in thought. The boots are similar to miniature automobiles. They are about fifteen inches long, and each has four rubber tired wheels eight inches in diameter. A PUNCTURED TTRZ The electric motors are carried in a belt. They carry one and a quarter horse power to each foot over wire connections. Each boot weighs sixteen pounds. Racing With a Railroad Train. A hawk every day flew along by the Dlamond express train rushing through Lehigh valley on its approach to Mouth Chunk. The train crew said the bird was racing, and bets were always pending on which would reach a certain point first. The hawk never won, but renewed the contest daily, and, as though acknowledging defeat, would mount into the air and swirl around for the backward flight. One day it flew on with the train, as usual, when suddenly it was seen to halt and quiver, then fall. It was found soon afterward shot through the head by some wanton huntsman. All the train hands mourned the bird as though it wore a personal loss.—Golden Days. Fainting Rooms. One of the latest ideas in New York is a room to which ladies can retire if they feel faint and go off in a swoon amid the most artistic and beautiful surroundings. Several restaurants and tea shops have adopted this idea, and members of the fair sex-whose nerve force is run down can find in the fainting room a soothing resting place. The rom is partially darkened and the prevailing color green, whilst it is liberally decorated with various sweet-smelling flowers. Comfortable sofas and chalers are provided for the "fainters," and a lady doctor is kept on the premises should her services be required. SUBSCRIPTION RATES.

The prudent use of money seems to be a thing that many of our people can not grasp. A spirit of "sticking to a thing," in every calling should be more prevalent among our old and especially young.

President Wright is doing this section untold good especially in these Conferences Bishop H. M. TURNER's declaration at the Macon Conference of colored men, that "to the Negro in this country, the American flag is a dirty and contemptible rag" and "that hell is an improvement upon the United States when the Negro is involved," it is very safe to say, met but scant favor in that body and will be regarded as a regrettable event by the colored people of the United States. Bishop Turner has brooded over and discussed the many grave acts of oppression and wrongs heaped upon his people as a result of the gross prejudice entertained by certain classes of white men and officials that he is influenced to use the most scathing and vimperative language against those he believes responsible for the evils practiced against the Negro race as shown by his philippi con the United States Supreme Court when he declared he would rather be in hell than to be in heaven with the members of that Court, because of its decision on civil rights bill some thirty years ago But we are not inclined to take Bishop Turner seriously when he denounces the flag—the glorious old stars and stripes which represents the principle of liberty and equal rights for which black men contended and used their blood before the formation of the United States into a Union. And the old flag, black men have fought for and defended it in every emergency and he has never betrayed it nor seen it trampled on or disobeyed in his presence and he never will. The old flag baptized and re-baptized in blood will always stand for what is honorable and right and must remain moved to all classes of citizens. The District Grand Lodge Dominated by a Boss Who "Dumps" These Whom He can not Use. Dear Mr. Editor—I beg space in your valuable journal to present a few facts from this state that I believe will be of interest to the Order throughout our whole Jurisdiction. But, before proceeding, allow me to modestly state who I am. I have been a member of the Order for twenty years, have served my Lodge and Brethren to the best of my ability in every position ever entrusted to me, have attended four sessions of the District Grand Lodge, and next to my God and family, I love the G. U. O. of O. F., as nothing on earth. But, way down here in Georgia, we have fallen in evil and designing hands. I submit that there is not a state in the union so much boss-ridden as Georgia. Principle counts for naught, Think, if you please Brother Editor, of a man occupying the position of Secretary of D. G. L., importing "Parson" E. P. Jones to Georgia to elect himself Secretary. Parson performed his duty to the satisfaction of Ben, whose program he carried in his inside pocket, which he consulted often; to the disgust and disgrace of the majority present declared Ben elected with men on the floor valiant protesting against Ben's Man Friday. Then Ben took a turn to compensate the Parson by having the D. G. L. of Georgia to endorse the Beverend for Grand Master of America, one year in advance of the B. M. O. Brother, you may have heard of something like this, but I am frank to say I have not. It is the opinion of Linkmen throughout Georgia that Hon. W. L. Hughes, a Christian gentleman, scholar and lawyer of ability was swindled out of the election of D. G. M., and H. L. Wilson declared elected; a man with very little business ability. Another item: Prof. D. G. Buggs of the Industrial Normal College of Savannah, Ga., one of the best known Negro educators in Georgia, who is respected by citizens of the entire State as a high-toned moral man, was displaced through the scheming of Ben Davis from the position of Auditor. May a merciful God deliver us from the body of this death. W. F. Satterwite, a business man of standing, an Odd Fellow of many years, met a similar fate. A man who has been in the Order less than two years took his place. Then Ben ravenous-eyed, turned to the Treasurer, a man who out of his personal funds came to the rescue of Ben when he was kicked out of the Government service for pilfering the Government bonded warehouse. I have reference to that old Gibraltar of Odd Fellows, Ex. D G. M., L. L. Lee, who needs no reference nor recommendation. He was displaced to make room for one A. Graves, who has his office in the same building with Brother Ben. Brother Graves, is an Odd Fellow with pin-feathers, having only been a If there is danger of the flag being contaminated by doubtful custodians, who would tarnish its glory, let us as loyal devoted citizens bend our energies to rescue it from its peril by correcting the evils leading up to the danger by doing in our power to remove the peril by creating a strong sentiment around the best and controlling classes of our country, that will immolate the existing prejudice, that will cause all men to be recognized according to their conduct and merit in all the vocations of life. In the meantime the millions of colored Americans will continue to shout and sing, "rally'round the flag boys," and will "rally once again," if necessary. Why Persist? 3 Some of our patrons persist in sending us articles unsigned. They must understand that matters not how important such articles may be, they will be unceremoniously resigned to the waste basket. Masonic Notes. Some Lodges are still lagging in making their reports. Lodges in arrears for Grand Lodge dues, and paymenton the Home, should send these amounts to the respective persons before time to render the annual report. Be faithful to your trusts my brother.

Jolat Installation. The Uniform Rank K. of P., had a joint installation on Monday night last and the hall was crowded to its utmost capacity. Chairman Burgess and his committee had everything so well arranged that despite the crowd everybody was given a good time. The following officers were installed by May. Bacon, assisted by Gsn'l Cohen and staff: Feay Company No 1, Capt. E. F. Golden, Lieuts. J. H. Hamiel and Joseph Eves. Joshua company No. 2, Capt. Jas. A Davis, Lieuts. H. G. Nixon and P. L. Bowen.

To carry out his wicked purpose in forcing an honorable man out of an office, he instituted a plan of hounding, making life a regular burden for Col. Lee, and to rid himself, he resigned. The question is being asked all over Georgia, why this new man was elevated over the head of senior members of the D. G. L. Executive Committee. I refer to Hon. R. B. Heggs, a man of many years consistent work for Odd Fellows; one of the best known men in Georgia, and one of Chatham's citizens, a man held in high respect by both white and black alike. It is a common gossip in the state how Parson Jones and B. J. Davis, outlawed Ex. D. G. M. Amos Caracter. B pushed the button, Parson knowing what he was there for, did the rest. Brother Caracter, a man of impeachable character was literally slaughtered by his supposed friend. Ben has trampled upon the rights of the Odd Fellows in Georgia so long and with such little interruption, that he is now laying seige to larger fields, and I propose to turn in the alarm. The scheme is simply this, and he has published part of it: To make Parson Jones, G. M., and elect himself Grand Treasurer, and when that evil day comes, and I pray God it never will; good-bye, good-bye to our noble old Order! Possibly through the mercy of the good Lord, we may be spared this sad affection, for there is now pending in the U. S. Circuit Court for the Northern District of Georgia, three indictments against Brother Davis for removing corn liquors from various distilleries where he had worked previously. Brother Davis' latest effort to elevate the Order through D. G. M. Wilson, is a demand on every Lodge in Georgia to send to him personally $4.00 to bond the Secretary and Treasurer. As is well known, some Lodges have not $5.00 all told, in any kind of property. Of course, Brother B. J., being allwise, he selects the Company to insure in. Pardon me Mr. Editor, another one of this Esau's movements, is his demand on all the Lodges in Georgia to send him the names of all the delegates to be elected to the B M $C_{i}$. to be held at Richmond, Va., this year. I understand he has appointed this Odd Fellow of pin-feathers by the name of A. Graves to manage his and Parson Jones' campaign. Will the Linkmen in this state wake up to their sense of duty and overthrow these political tricksters? The Order should be careful to select men of integrity, reputation and honor. Having discharged what I consider my bonest duty to our Ancient and Noble Order. Believe me to be Fraternally yours in F. L. and T. MORGAN WILLIAMS, N. G. Pride of Georgia Lodge 1553, Atlanta. Doctors in Limelight Dark Shadows—Says Nuf-Sed. Dear Mr. Editor : A friend said something to me the other day which put me to thinking. We were walking out West Broad street the other day and passed by the colored drug store, when my friend remarked "I tell you, our race" certainly getting to be fine." I asked him "Have you any money invested in the drug store?" "No" said he, "but wherever there is anything done by Negroes in a creditable way I cannot but feel that it is not only helping the few Negroes interested in the enterprise, but it also helps the entire Negro Race, and vice-versa whenever anything discreditable is done by a Negro it not only injures him, but affects the entire race." This put me to thinking. I said here is an enterprise gotten up by a few men who in doing so are not only benefitting themselves but are really helping the entire mass of 35,000 Negroes of Savannah; every advancement by this concern bespeaks much louder than words the business qualities possessed by Negroes. If they succeed how much more confidence does it awaken in other Negro enterprises, how much does it raise the credit afforded colored men, and if it falls how much lower will it sink the public confidence in Negro enterprise, and what a blow it would be to the coming generations toward entering the field of medicine. My next thought was to the men who are behind this creditable undertaking I do not know all of them, but I feel quite certain that I know three men connected with the drug store. After I had thought of the qualifications of these three men along business lines I said no wonder the drug store is getting along so well. I happened to know the druggist, who is a graduate of an University which stands, so doubt, much higher than the schools of which many of our white druggists attend. There is every reason, therefore, for all the people to have explicit confidence in this druggist who has had superior advantages than many white druggists of Savannah. This young graduate of Howard University is a young Savannah boy who possesses sterling qualities of personal uprightness and highest integrity, besides not in any way being addicted to any bad habits—I know this personally and not speaking from heresay. The second one whom I think is interested in this business concern is one of the leading colored physicians of our city an up-to-date doctor and wide-awake in every sense of the word. Certainly with the druggist and the physician working hand in hand any one is guaranteed a "square deal," a "run for your money" and that they can "furnish the goods." The other person interested is a principal of public school, a man who represents the 20th Century Negro and who though modestly is one of the numbers of persons who are making Savannah what it is. The very names of these three men guarantee Savannah people honest, dealings. My next thought was "who are those from whom support would naturally above all others be expected?" This answer came to me, that while of course, the entire mass of colored people are expected to give its patronage to this affair, still it is paramount that the colored physicians render their valuable support. These doctors who are making their bread out of the colored people are expected above all others to help build up such enterprise as a drug store which is right along their line of work. I tell you Mr. Editor, the time is ripe when hypocrites are to be thrashed out of the councils of our race meetings. The people are supporting the colored physicians as is evinced by the fact that some of them are growing "bow-legged" from carrying so much money; while others are making bread and butter; and others again get "bread" even if they have to wash it down with water. The point is that none of them are starving; and all, of them are making a living from the colored people. Now I suppose that some of these doctors will make the little boy who inhabits the hot regions look like thirty cents along the "frowning line" when told that such and such a colored person called in a white doctor yet these very same doctors who are making their bread and butter out of the "colored man's pocket," these same "ducklings" who would be "quacking-em up a few" should the colored people put them/down; these "hypocrites" who like to be heard much in public places for thel x words, crying out "patronize de race," these fellows who could easily bear off the palms in a contest with Ananias for mendacity when they write a prescription do they tell their patients "patronize de race!" No, they tell them, "take this to so and so, he's my friend." Yes, he may be your friend all O. K., but, Bud, you'd better not stop in there, yourself, on a hot summer's day to get a cool drink of soda, because if you do, you would certainly need to see a tailor, and also a cushioned bottom.chair in which to sit for a while thereafter. These are the men who tell them to have confidence in colored business enterprises, to have pride, when they themselves know as much about "pride" as a hog knows about holiday. Nuf-Sed.

How often do we hear the expression, "I am so nervous, it seems as if I should fly;" or, "Don't speak to me." Little things annoy you and make you irritable; you can't sleep. you are unable to quietly and calmly perform your daily tasks or care for your children. The relation of the nerves and generative organs in woman is so close that nine-tenths of the nervous prostration, nervous debility, the blues, sleeplessness and nervous irritability arise from some derangement of the organism which makes her a woman. Fits of depression or restlessness and irritability; spirits easily affected, so that one minute she laughs, the next minute weeps; pain in the abdominal region and between the shoulders; loss of voice; nervous dyspepsia; a tendency to cry at the least provocation—all these point to nervous prostration. Nothing will relieve this distressing condition and prevent months of prostration and suffering so surely as Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. Mrs. M. E. Shotwell, of 103 Flatbush Avenue, Brooklyn, N. Y., writes: "I cannot express the wonderful relief I have experienced by taking Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. I suffered for a long time with nervous prostration, hackache, headache, loss of appetite. I could not sleep and would walk the floor almost every night, three doctons and got no better, life was a burden. I was advised to try Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, and it has worked wonders for me. "I am a well woman, my nervousness is all gone and my friends say I look ten years younger." Will not the volumes of letters from women made strong by Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound convince all women of its virtues? Surely you cannot wish to remain sick, weak and discouraged, exhausted each day, when you can be as easily cured as other women.

"The Cuticura Remedies cured me of my skin disease a, and I am very thankful to you. My trouble was erosion of the skin, which broke out in spots all over my body, and caused a continual itching, which nearly drove me wild at times. I got medicine of a doctor, but it did not cure me, and when I saw in a paper your ad, I sent to you for the Cuticura book and I studied my case in it. I then went to the drug store and bought one cake of Cuticura Soap, one box of Cuticura Ointment and one vial of Cuticura Pills. From the first application I received relief. I used the first set and two extra cakes of Cuticura Soap, and was completely cured. I had suffered for two years, and I again thank Cuticura for my cure. Chaude N. Johnson, Maple Grove Farm, R. F.

C.-Before perhaps the most conspicuously august assembly that ever graced the famous East Room in the Executive Mansion, Miss Alice Lee Roosevelt, eldest daughter of the President, was united in marriage to Nicholas Longworth, Congressman from Ohio, it was the first White House wedding in nearly twenty years, and, according to the usual reckoning, the tenth in number. All the form and ceremony of state entertainments were observed at the wedding. An early arrival did not particularly guarantee one a more favorable place, as the location of the President's family and relatives, the members of Mr. Lougworth's family, the Vice-President and Mrs. Falkbanks, the members of the Cabinet and of the Supreme Court and other classes of guests had been marked out in each case. These were the announced arrangements: "No one will be admitted without the proper entrance card. In no circumstances will this rule be departed from. "Carriages will approach from the north to the east entrance of the White House, opposite the Treasury. Pedestrians will follow the same route. After discharging passengers carriages will be parked around the ellipse in the White lot. "The gates will not be open until the hour of 11.15 a.m. Two carriages will drive under the porte-cochere at the same time. Coachmen will be provided with numbered checks, which must be preserved by them in order to regain admittance to the grounds. Guests will be provided with tickets of the same numbers as their carriages. These they should carefully preserve in order to call their carriages, which will depart from the same entrance. "After leaving cloaks in the clockroom, guests are requested to fall in line and pass up the main staircase. "Carriages for the southwest gate will approach by Seventeenth street. Guests holding special cards for this gate will enter the White House by the door under the south portico." Between 900 and 1000 guests were at the wedding, and those in charge of the arrangements were delighted that everybody had a chance to see the nuptial knot tied, even those in the rear ranks, for the bridal couple and the officiating clergyman, the Right Rev. Henry X. Satterlee, Episcopal Bishop of Washington, stood upon a dals. It does not fall to the lot of any princess to be married under more auspicious circumstances. The platform on which the couple stood while the ceremony was performed and before which passed the procession of guests who greeted Mrs. Nicholls Longworth for the first time formed a semi-circle. It was eight feet long and three and a half feet wide at the middle and about eighteen inches high. About the entire platform were circular steps leading up. From the middle the bridal party proceeded to the priedieu upon which they knelt during a part of the ceremony performed by Bishop Satterlee. About the platform golden posts had been placed and garlands of flowers and white satin ribbon were arranged from post to post, leaving a gateway through which the bridal party passed. The platform was built directly in front of a large window on the east HON. NICHOLAS LONGWORTH. side of the East Room, which faces the entrance to the main corridor so that as many persons as possible might obtain an advantageous view of the ceremony. A dark red carpet covered the platform, and the heavy golden brocade portieres which hang in the wide window back of the platform were used as a background for the flowers and palms which were banked about the improvised enclave. No pictures adorn the walls of this beautiful room, the large painted portraits having been removed some time ago by the Roosevelts, and nothing but palms, cut flowers and potted plants reckon the gold of the decorations. The wedding ceremony as well as the breakfast and reception were over by 4 o'clock, at which hour the bride and bridegroom left the White House for the Pennsylvania Railroad station, where they boarded a private car for the start of their homiepmoon. The completion of the ceremony, since the service was not performed in a church, was announced by the pealing of the bells of several of the churches here, and telegraphic dispatches from New Haven and other points say that the same compliment was paid the young couple in many parts of the country. The bride, of course, has received much beautiful jewelry among her wedding gifts, but those that she prizes the most are 'from her hus- Public Service Deal The United Gas Improvement Company, of Philadelphia, Pa., is preparing to increase its capital stock to $43,000,000.

Mrs. Nicholas Longworth will have two homes. One will be in Cincinnati's Bookhook, the beautiful home of the bridegroom's mother. It derives its name from the number of rooks that make their home for the ancient trees about the place. It is the home, too, of the beautiful china originated by Mrs. Bellamy Storer, wife of Ambassador Storer, who is a member of the Longworth family. The other is the Washington home.

This is the exact description of the wedding gown in detail: It is a severely plain Princess dress, high neck and sleeves with court train. The gown itself is of plain white satin. The handsome court train, however, starting from the edge of the narrow yoke of lace, is heavily embroidered in silver margaruerites. This is the special work that was done in the silk mills of Paterson, N. J. The yoke of the gowp is made from real lace worn by Miss Roosevelt's mother on her own wedding dress. From this yoke falls a deep flounce of the same lace. The wedding veil was purchased in New York. This was topped with a wreath of orange blossoms. If Saturday's wedding was not remarkable for anything else, it is for the splendid display of orchids used in the decoration of the White House. Flowers played a prominent part generally in the wedding. It became known on the day of the wedding that after the ceremony Congressman Longworth and his bride will go directly for the little rural Virginia home, Plain Dealing, where President and Mrs. Roosevelt spent some time last year; next they will journey to Georgia and visit the old Bullock home, where Miss Roosevelt's grandmother was born, and then they will go to Florida and be entertained at the magnificent home of Henry M.

SUICIDE. CF BANK DIRECTOR William Degraft Fearing Trouble in Bank Investigation Hangs Himself. Mansfield, Ill.-The excitement over the financial affairs of the First National Bank of this town culminated in the suicide of William Degraft, one of its directors and a retired wealthy farmer. He hanged himself. About four months ago it became known that James C. Langley, cashier of that institution, had been speculating with the funds of the bank in bucket shop-. Investigation followed which resulted in a showing that Langley was short $63,000. Langley in settlement of the short- BLACK RADIUS WRITE ALOEITIS PALM BUR FILM 201775 age turned over to W. D. Fairbanks, the President of the bank, who is a brother of the Vice-President, all the property he possessed, which consisted of a house and lot in Mansfield worth $2000. The father of Langley also turned over to the same person all the real estate he possessed, being eighty acres of land, worth $25,000, reserving, however, in a life estate for himself. The and Jury, which convened at Monticello, February 5, has had the affairs of the bank under investigation for the last few days. William Degnaftt was before that body and testified in relation to Langley's speculations. After he left the Grand Jury he thought he had made mistakes in his extortion, belay, under the impression that he had testified that Fairbanks was short $00,000, whereas as a matter of fact he had not so testified. Fear that this would cause trouble evidently unbalanced his mind so that on reaching home he vent out to the harm and hanged himself. FO3 THE JAPANESE.

At a sale of animals from a hippodrome a tiger was being offered. The highest bid was made by a man who was a stranger, and to him it was knocked down. The owner of the animal, who had been eyeing the stranger, uneasily during the blinding, then went up to him and said: "Pardon me for asking the question, but will you tell me where you are from?" "From the country," responded the man. "Are you connected with any show?" "No." "And you are buying this animal for yourself?" The showman shifted about for a few moments, looking alternately at the man and the tiger, evidently trying his best, to reconcile the two. "Now, young man," he finally said, "you need not take this animal unless you want to, for there are those here who will take it off your hands." "I don't want to sell," was the quiet reply. "What on earth are you going to do with such an ugly beast if you have no show of your own and are not buying for some one who is a showman?" "Well, I'll tell you," said the purchaser. "My wife died about three weeks ago. We had lived together for ten years, and—I miss her." He paused to wipe his eyes and steady his voice, and then added: "So I've bought the tiger." "I understand you," said the great showman in a husky voice, as he turned to hide his emotion.—London Times. The Tariff on Art- Every artist of any station in America resents this tariff barbarism. We happened to receive no great inheritance in artistic beauty from the genius of the past, and our statesmen of a more demagogic period increased this disadvantage by penalizing and discouraging the import of what our citizens were able and willing to buy for us abroad. The tax on paintings is felt mainly by our public galleries, where private collections nearly always ultimately find their places. In 1894, valen art was taken, the works imported were valued at $1,516,688.63. The next year, when they were admitted free, the total was $4,053,482.88, and over five millions in 1896. In 1898, under the tariff of 20 percent, the amount fell to $2,124,773. Paintings are admitted free into almost all European countries. Spain charges 19 cents per painting and Switzerland 49 cents. Canada makes free works by artists of recognized merit. We, who have everything to gain just now in art possessions from the desire of our men of wealth to put some of their money into pictures, possess a statute that acts against us and for the benefit of the countries in which the works of art now are.—Collier's Weekly. Canned Paintings. Painting under glass may now be preserved indefinitely. Had the men of old known this the pictures of Apelles might still live in the first freshness of their colors, and the work of Raphael and Michael Angelo would look-today as it looked when it left the painter's hands. The method of preservation is simple. The canvas is placed in a vacuum. It is preserved, like fruit. It is sealed up from all the destructive influences of the atmosphere. Since metal figures in the operation the canvas might indeed be said to be canned. There is no reason why paintings, kept in this manner in a vacuum, should not endure indefinitely. RESIDENCE UNKNOWN. First Citizen.—That new neighbor of ours, Mrs. Jones, seems an ill-natured sort. Second Citizen.—How so? First Citizen.—Why, I called her up on the telephone yesterday, and asked her if she had any idea where her husband was staying, and she rang off without answering me. Second Citizen.—I don't wonder He's dead.—Harper's Weekly. UNDER WHICH KING The Pres. of the W. C. T. U. in a young giant State in the Northwest says: "I did not realize that I was a slave to coffee till I left off drinking it. For three or four years I was obliged to take a nerve tonic every day. Now I am free, thanks to Postum Food Coffee. "After finding out what coffee will do to its victims, I could hardly stand to have my husband drink it; but he was not willing to quit. I studied for months to find a way to induce him to leave it off. Finally I told him I would make no more coffee. "I got Postum Food Coffee, and made it strong—boiled it the required time, and had him read the little book, 'The Road to Wellville,' that comes in every pkg. "To-day Postum has no stronger advocate than my husband. He tells our friends how to make it, and that he got through the winter without a spell of the grip and has not had a headache for months—he used to be 'subject to frequent nervous headaches. "The stronger you drink Postum the more food you get; the stronger you drink coffee the more polson you get." Name given by Postum Co., Battle Creek Mich. Subject: How to Grow a Soul. New York City.-Sunday morning, in the Collegiate Church, the Rev. Dr. Donald Sage Mackay preached on "How to Grow a Soul." The text was from II Peter lil:18: "Grow in grace and in the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ." Dr. Mackay said: In the course of my reading the other evening I came across this striking and suggestive sentence, "We can each grow a soul if we are willing to pay the price." These words set me thinking. What a tremendous possibility God has placed in the grasp of each one of us. We have in our power the opportunity of growing an immortal soul. That opportunity is this life—the question is, Are we willing to pay the price? Do we realize what the growth of a soul within us means? Do we realize what life is without a soul? We hear it sometimes said of one that he is a "soulless man." Usually we understand by that description a man devoid of the ordinary feelings of our common humanity, lacking in kindness and sympathy, and incarnable of generous action. True enough, but a soulless man in the real import of the words, means a great deal more than that. To be soulless is to be dead at the vital centre of life. It is to be corrupt and degenerate at that point in character from which the divine and immortal springs into power. Soullessness is spiritual degeneracy. It is what Paul calls "Dead in trespasses and sins, without hope and without God in the world." Is it worth while, then, paying any price if we can start within ourselves this growth of an immortal soul? "We can each grow a soul," said the writer, "if we are willing to pay the price. Assuredly it is worth it, for this is the one and the only victorious life." More than that--this is the heart of all true religion. If our religion is not developing spiritual life within our religion is vain. That is the great thought of Christ's teaching, and in that He has emphasized the deepest thought of all the great teachers of the world. You may remember, for instance, the words of Socrates in his Defense, addressed to his accusers, when in describing the greatest work a man could do he said, "For I do nothing but go about amongst you, persuading you all alike, young and old, not to take thought of your persons or your properties, but to care about the greatest improvement of your soul." Than that statement of the great Greek teacher the Gospel of Christ can add no stronger emphasis to the tremendous significance which belongs to the growth of a soul. And yet it is just at this point that, for most of us, the real tragedy of spiritual experience unveils itself. What is it that most troubles you in your religious life, if at any moment your give yourself to honest self-examination? What is the real discourage that haunts us even in our keenest prayers and most fervent supplications? Is it not just this—our utter poverty in soul growth, the dreadful lack of any real evidence of progress in spiritual things? Judged by the ordinary standards of life our souls do not grow. At the very best they simply stand still, so that spiritually, even the best of us, are pretty much as we were fifteen or twenty years ago, with the same tendencies dominant, the same temptations present. With others of us it is worse than that. In spite of our prayers and aspirations we are conscious, when we are brave enough to face the fact, that spiritually we grow mere stunted and dwarfed as the years pass on. Our faith becomes less fervid, the spirit of prayer dwindles, the sense of God evaporates in the stifling atmosphere of selfishness and wordiness that wraps itself like a sea fog around us. That, I repeat, is the spiritual tragedy that plays itself out in the secret places of our lives; spiritually we do not grow as we ought; our souls lack that touch of life which reveals itself in ever deepening strength and power. Well, now having faced this two-fold fact-on the one hand that each of us can grow a soul if he is willing to pay the price, and on the other hand that this soul-growth is not being realized within us as it ought-let us see this morning what are some of the conditions in obedience to which soul-growth may become a glorious reality for each one of us. 1. Let us recognize in the first place what the soul is, what it represents. By the soul, we mean something deeper than "the machine which ticks in the brain, that calculates and memorizes, that learns the tricks of trade, and practices them in the world." That is not your soul, although I dare say it is the only apology for a soul some of us have. The soul is that in you and me which has kinship with God. It is the chamber in which the divine and immortal within us dwells. The soul is the holy of holies in a man's life. It is as Paul says, "The Temple of the Holy Ghost." When, for instance, you feel at times, as surely at times we all do, an almost overpowering yearning after God, to know Him, to be like Him, it is your soul that is speaking. It is the immortal within you, crying out for its kinship with God. The vitality of your soul, therefore, is the pledge of your immortality. Destroy the soul, and you destroy that within you without which eternity is unthinkable. That is why Christ put such emphasis on the awful possibility of losing the soul. "What shall it profit a man," He said, "if he gain the whole world and love his own soul?" Nothing can compensate that loss. Christ does not say that "gazing the world" necessarily means loss of the soul; what He says is, that a prize even so great as the attainment of the whole world would not offset the loss of a single individual soul. Do we realize that? The first condition, therefore, in soul-growth, is to realize the issue at stake, to recognize the infinite value of your soul as your one and only asset when death, with ruthless fingers, strips you of all else. "Think of living," said Carlyle, "for wert thou the pitifulest of all the sons of earth thy life is no idle dream. It is thine own. It is all that thou hast to "see eternity with." True, but living without a soul is to make eternity a voidless blank. It is your soul within you, claiming its kinship with God, that is the only thing worth living for. That is the first point. When you recognize that, you have taken the first step in soulgrowth. 2. The second condition is to recognize clearly the great hindrance to soulgrowth. It is futile to ask why our souls do not grow naturally, as, for instance, the body does. Spiritual development is one thing, natural growth is quite another thing. The fact must be recognized, explain it how you will, that soulgrowth is tremendously hand-capped and hindered by forces which conspire its ruin. In other words, our souls are in the grip of a deadly disease, which dwarfs and stunts them. What is that disease? A correct diagnosis is the first step to complete the cure. Suppose for a moment you have a boy who, instead of growing into health and strength, is pinched and dwarfed and anemic in appearance. You take the lad to a physician, and he will tell you that that boy of yours is really suffering from a wrong habit of life. He is not being nourished properly. His digestive organs are being overloaded with food which he cannot assimilate. What the boy needs is not more food, but less; not richer diet, but simpler. Nature is being thwarted by artificial living, and artificial living is the seed-plot of disease. And the physician will doubtless tell you that, the boy being young, the cure is simple. He will say: "Give nature a chance by simplifying his daily diet." Well, it is even so with the health of the soul. Our souls are starved and stunted by a disease, which is created and aggrated by a disease, which is mode of life. We are so corging our minds with all the elaborated and artificial forms of living, that the spiritual within us is stiffed. Sin is the disease which kills the soul, but sin is simply a product of that sordid selfish life which closes the great arteries of the soul. If deliberately we follow a life which makes no provision for prayer and communion with God, which cherishes evil habits and nourishes' actions which begin and end in self, then we are deliberately killing the soul within us. What, then, is the price we have to pay if we want to grow a soul? We must change the mode of life which enthralls us, and make provision, not for the things of the flesh, but of the spirit. In that purer, sweeter, simpler atmosphere the soul will inevitably begin to grow. The vitality of your soul is wonderful. Its recuperative powers are marvelous, but these powers must have their opportunity. Here is a disease which is stunting and slowly killing my soul. I willing to fulfill the condition which will eradicate that disease, and make spiritual growth a reality? 3. That leads to the third point. What is that condition? And who of us, by his own strength, is sufficient to meet that condition? We cannot certainly, by our own efforts, hope to reverse those natural tendencies within us which war against our souls. We cannot, by any strivings of our own, force spiritual growth. If we are unable to add a cubit to our physical stature, much less can we add to our spiritual growth. Yet, the call of Christ is to "grow in grace, and in His likeness." What, then, is the secret of that growth? The Gospel of Christ is the answer. Our souls grow as they come into living touch with Him. We cannot transform ourselves, but we are transformed into His likeness, as we reflect the spirit of Jesus, and we reflect Jesus in the measure that we reflect on Him. Make Christ the theme of your daily prayer and meditation, and every moment you spend in His presence is a springide of spiritual growth within your soul. That growth you cannot check: no sin can hinder it if you are living in the atmosphere of Christ's life. It is not our strivings and struggles that add to the stature of the soul; it is our faith, simple as that of a little child which, laying hold of the love of God revealed in Christ, builds up the soul, day by day, into His grace and into His likeness. Now, I ask, is there anything strange or mysterious about that? Is spiritual growth subject to laws any different from those which govern any process of mental development? Surely not. To make any theme a subject of daily thought is to make that theme a potent influence in your life. The more deeply it lays hold of your mind the more profoundly it becomes a part of yourself. All you have to do is to fulfil the condition of continuous thought, and the object of your thought reacts upon you and becomes a dominant factor of growth. We speak, for instance, of a man being possessed by some master passion—it may be the love of money, or of power, or of sordid self-indulgence, or of some higher interest, but whatever it is, the result is the same. Constant dwelling upon it moulds character into its likeness. So it is with the soul that surrenders itself to the influence of Jesus. As we think of Him, and as we enter into the spirit of His life, and breathe the atmosphere of His love and purity, gradually we are transformed, and the soul within us leaps up into glad recognition of its lawful Love. Every power we have, every faculty we possess becomes interpenetrated by His spirit, and because His spirit is life we live also. Excited. Rowland Hill used to tell this story of himself: "People say when I preach the Gospel very earnestly, 'How excited Mr. Hill gets!' Why," said he, "I was walking through Wotton-under-Edge the other day, and saw some men digging gravel. All of a sudden the earth gave way and buried two or three of the men. I ran off as fast as my old lags would carry me, and I shouted, 'Help! help! help!' but people did not say, Poor old Mr. Hill is getting dreadfully excited!" "Oh, not he might be as excited as he pleased when men's lives were in danger; but when a man's soul was in danger the proper thing would he to say to him very quietly and calmly, 'My dear friend, unless something shall interpose, and you shall one of these days become somewhat different from what you now are, it will not be quite so well for you in another world as perhaps, you might desire.'"—Belfast Witness.

MORE OF MORRIS AFFAIR Woman's Husband Requested That Roosevelt Make Public Apology for Ejection of His Wife from White House. A Washington special says: Dr. Minor Morris, whose wife, some weeks ago, was ejected from the white house, where she had gone to present alleged grievances to the president, gave out for publication Wednesday the correspondence which recently passed between himself and the president regarding the case. Dr. Morris demanded a public apology of the president "for this outrage on womanhood and common decency." Secretary Loeb replied to the letter, stating that an investigation by the chief of police showed that the arrest was justified and that the kindest act to Mrs. Morris and her kinafolk was to refrain from giving the case additional publicity. The letters follow: To the President of the United States—Sir: Having waited patiently a number of weeks that you might have ample time to ascertain all the circumstances connected with the insult recently offered my wife at the white house and that you might make some expression of deprecation, which would naturally be expected, it is now incumbent on me as husband and citizen to demand a public apology for this outrage on womanhood and common decency. "It is unthinkable that such brutality would be tolerated anywhere in this country, but above all in the white house. "That my wife has been confined to her bed for six weeks from the shock and injuries of this damnable treatment is bad enough, but I can say to you in all calmness that had the original orders from the white house been carried out as to her longer incarceration, her life would have been sacrificed. "It is therefore incumbent on me to repeat my urgent request that you take action at once suitable to the circumstances which have shocked the entire nation. Respectfully. "The White House, Washington, February 19, 1906—Sir: In reply to your letter of the 16th instant the president directs me to say to you that he had the superintendent of police of the District of Columbia, Major Sylvester, make a careful investigation of the circumstances connected with the arrest of Mrs. Morris for disorderly conduct at the executive office and the superintendent submitted to the president all the affidavits of the persons whom he had examined. The president carefully went over Major Sylvester's report and the affidavits, and also personally saw Major Sylvester and some of the persons making the affidavits. He came to the conclusion that the arrest was justified and that the force used in making the arrest was caused by, the resistance offered by Mrs. Morris to the officers in the discharge of their duty, and was no greater than was necessary to make the arrest effective. "Under these circumstances the president does not consider that the officers are properly subject to blame. He was also satisfied that the kindest thing that could be done to Mrs. Morris and her kinsfolk was to refrain from giving any additional publicity to the circumstances surrounding the case. Yours truly, "WILLIAM LOEB, JR., "Secretary to the President." Money for Brunswick Lightship.

Such Is Sensational Accusation Made Against Minister Rockhill at Pe- Chairman Hull of the military affairs committee, in presenting the army appropriation bill to the house, Wednesday, urged the necessity of complete preparedness as to our army and navy for trouble in the Orient. He declared that any nation not prepared to defend its position in China might as well haul down its flag and out the Pacific. Mr. Hull had read a newspaper dispatch from Pekin, which had been sent him from the Orient, and which he vouched for as entirely accurate, which gave an account of an interview between Minister Rockhill and Mr. Na Tung, president of the walwupu. Mr. Rockhill reminded the Chinese official that the United States intended to return the 20,000,000 pounds sterling, its part of the Boxer indemnity. Mr. Hull' characterized these utterances on the part of Mr. Rockhill as "inludiculous." "I do not believe that the representative of this government had a proper conception of the character of the Chineso people," continued Mr. Hull, "when he offered them a bribe of 20,000,000 pounds sterling, or whatever the United States' share of the Chinese indemnity may have been, to be good." "They are a people," he said, "that in my judgment would take any such offer as that as an indication of our being rather more afraid of them than otherwise and it seems to me that a man occupying his position should have let whatever information was necessary come from the government of the United States direct and not have given it to the newspapers." Mr. Hull said he had been informed extensively of the Chinese situation. He read a lengthy letter, the author of which he declined to divulge, which rebutted the idea that Japan was causing trouble in China. Mr. Hull endorsed this view and also the proposition in the letter that the boxer indemnity ought rather to be used to build battleships for the United States than be returned to China. Mr. Hull pointed out that it was decidedly to the interest of Japan to preserve order in China in order to retain her markets in that country; China he said; was passing through a transition from ancient to modern civilization, "and while that is going on every government that has business relations with her must be ready to protect themselves or else pull down their flag and leave the Pacific ocean and destroy their trade." REVOLTING CRIME ALLEGED. Young Man "Doped," Robbed and Placed on Railroad Tracks. James T., alias "Peacsie" Goode, who has figured before the courts in several escapades in the recent past, was jailed at Bainbridge, Ga., Wednesday, under suspicion of being implicated in one of the most revolting crimes in the history of the county. Since the death of young M. M. Baker, who was run over and killed Saturday night by a Coast Line passenger train, in the local yards, officers have been at work upon clews indicating foul play. It is now apparent that Baker was "doped" and robbed a short while before train time, and laid upon the track for the train to finish the work. PURE FOOD BILL PASSED. Measure Goes Through Senate by Decisive Vote of 63 to 4. After fifteen years of more or less serious consideration of the subject the senate Wednesday passed a pure food bill by the decisive vote of 63 to 4. The bill make it a mlsdemeanor to manufacture or sell adulterated or misbranded foods, drugs, medicines or liquors, and prohibits the shipment of such goods from one state to another or to a foreign country. It also prohibits the receipt of such goods. Punishment is by fine of $500 or by imprisonment for one year, or both. NUNNALLY OPENS CAMPAIGN. Talks of Issues on Which He Aspires to Be Governor of Georgia. Dr. G. A. Nunnally of Coweta county, pastor of the First Baptist church of Newnan, opened his campaign for governor of Georgia, in a remarkable address before a gathering in Monroe Wednesday. He pitched his campaign upon the high moral ground of the further extension and proper enforcement of the prohibition laws of the state, the necessity for a revision of the divorce laws, and better laws for the preservation of the Sabbath day. He also takes a strong stand in behalf of a child labor law. GEORGIA NEGRO FARMERS Hold Their Seventeenth Annual Conference at Industrial College.
