VOLUME XXVIII Georgia State Industrial College Georgia State Industrial College COMMENCES ITS 22ND YEAR TUESDAY Prospects Bright for Successful Year—Attendance Promises to be Very Large— Speakers for Sunday Services The opening of the Georgia State Industrial College next week will undoubtedly be of much interest to the large number of friends of the institution who are aware of the good work it has done in the past. The influence of the school for good is not only confined to the city of Savannah where many of its graduates are, but throughout the state. Twelve trades are taught, besides these trades, courses in agriculture and dairying are given. The girls are taught sewing and domestic science. The literary department is prepared to give a good literary education including the Grammar, Normal and College Departments. The graduates of the institution stand well in all sections of the state where they have found work. The enrollment during the past year was quite large and an even larger enrollment is expected this year. Arrangement has already been made for the religious services of the school. On the opening Sunday, the sermon will be preached by the Rev. D. Augustine Reid; on the second Sunday by Rt. Rev. Richard Bright; on the third Sunday by the Rev. T. D. Ellis; on the fourth Sunday by the Rev. W. T. Dakin. These are among the ablest ministers of the colored and also the white race. During the year there will be a number of interesting and valuable lectures by able men. The athletics of the institution will be looked after very carefully. Already Captain Cherey has a number of engagements for the football field. This school year gives promise of being among the most interesting of our series of interesting years. School will open on Tuesday, October first. Communication. Dear Sir:— Please allow us space in your valuable paper to state to the reading public that the Mount Zion Baptist church has had very little trouble during its existence, and the case now in court brought to restrain the Pastor of this church and some of its Trustees from selling the church property on West Broad St., was brought in order to keep the said church from getting into financial difficulties. Rev. McD. Spencer, the pastor, who is not a member of the church, but is hired by the church to preach, has taken upon himself the proposition of selling the church property at a grossly inadequate price, and purchasing another piece of property on which to build another church building, which will put the Mt. Zion Baptist church in debt something like six thousand dollars. He made contracts to do this without authority from the congregation of the church and without the congregation of the church knowing anything about it until the proposed sale and purchased leaked out through the real estate office with which he was doing business and was published in the Savannah Morning News of September 8th. Since Rev. Spencer has been the pastor of our church he has tried to do away with the Constitution and By-Laws of the church, tried to run the church to suit himself, and allowed none of the members to say anything in opposition to his schemes. When any of the congregation would seek to explain to the membership their opposition to the pastor's schemes Rev. Spencer would either declare him out of order or sing the doxology. This he did last Tuesday night when Deacon Lyons sought to explain these transactions. We have the greatest reason for those chosen of God to preach, we hate to impugn any false motives to Rev. Spencer, but we cannot see why he wishes to sell the West Broad Street property of the The Savannah Tribune TO THE COLORED CITIZENS OF SAYANNAH Chairman of Board of Curators Makes Appeal You have been kept well informed as to our progress in securing the site for the Colored Carnegie Library. As all things do, the time to talk has come to an end. The time for promises unfulfilled is about over. Now the bare fact confronts us. On the 6th of October the site for the library has got to be paid for or we lose it. An option to my certain knowledge has been secured three separate times, the third and last one maturing October 6th, at which time the money must be paid or we lose the lot and lose what we have paid. The above are the facts in the case. If we lose it you cannot escape your share of the humiliation that awaits the Negroes of Savannah in this matter. Letters have been written to churches, to leading men, various lodges and societies, and subscriptions have been sought and secured and now once for all they must be paid. You know it is your duty to give something. Now let the world see that you make good your promises and send or give this money to pay for this lot to any one of the curators and it will surely be devoted to the purchase for which you give it. This is my last reminder. It is up to you. Asbury M. E. Church. Gwinnett Street West of West Baoad. Sunday services 11 a.m. and 8:30 p. m. Sunday School 4 p.m. Glass meet- ing Tuesday nights. Epworth League Thursday nights. The Afro-American Press. [Chicago Fellowship Press.] The Herald is in receipt of much interesting matter from Washington City this week relative to President Taft's goodness to the Negro in the way of appointments, and asking its insertion in these columns. This communication is signed "The Afro-American Press." There are three reasons why The Herald does not avail itself of this courtesy. The first is, that no responsible name is signed to either communication. We do not print matter unless the name of some responsible person is attached. Secondly, while the Herald believes in the Republican party, it believes that its bid for the Negro vote should be based on higher ground than a list of the jobs and the salaries therefor, which Negroes hold under President Taft. Jobs are all right in their places but they avail but little if the bulk of the race is to remain disfranchised, peonized, lynched and Jim Crowed. What the race wants to know is "What will the Republican party do to remove these evils, if the Negro helps to put it back into power?" Finally, the Republican party managels have made a mistake if they hope to use the columns of the Negro press for campaign purposes by simply sending out printed matter signed in any such mythical way. The Negro editor who would permit his or her columns to be used in such way has neither intelligence nor influence that would be of the least benefit to the party in the fight before it. church for several thousand dollars less than it is worth on the market and place the church six thousand or more dollars in debt to get another church. Nor can we see any pure motive in the said pastor keeping the congregation of the church in the dark as to his actions in this matter. We are acting for what we consider the best interests of the church, we have no selfish motives and expect to get nothing out of the matter. We believe we now have a large majority of the church with us, and we are sure that if the whole congregation knew all the ins and outs of the transactions for the sale of this property and the purchase of other property that all of the congregation would be with us. Thanking you, Mr. Editor, for this valuable space, we are, Very respectfully, SAVANNAH, GEORGIA, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 28 1912 Catholic Schools For Colored Children BEGIN MONDAY-FOUR WELL WELL EQUIPPED SCHOOLS Many Students to Attend Steady Growth of Catholic Schools in City-Teachers at Each School. On Monday morning, Sept. 30, four schools under Catholic management will open for colored children in Savannah. They are located in various districts, and thus they afford school facilities to many a child that would be without any education, if it could not attend the Catholic school. The Catholic Priests spare no trouble and no expense in order to bring their schools up to a high standard. Not only is a solid secular education guaranteed in those schools, but also a good moral training is given to the children. Whilst all religion is eliminated from the public schools, half an hour is set aside in the Catholic schools, during which the great principles of Christianity and of morality are taught and thus the children are better prepared for the battle of life. Children of all religious denominations are admitted, and their religion is not interfered with. But every pupil must learn the principles of Christian doctrine and a short summary of Bible History. A small tuition is charged, namely, 5 cents a week in the kindergarten and 10 cents in the various grades. This is very little indeed when we consider the great expenses incurred by the equipping and maintaining of the schools. The four schools in Savannah are: St. Benedict's School East Broad and Gordon streets, with 8 grades and 4 Franciscan Sisters as teachers. St. Mary's School on Thirty-sixth and Harden streets (a splendid school building with all modern equipments) with 5 grades and three teachers: Miss Gertrude Davis, Miss Coletta Greene, and Miss Carrie Elliott, St. Augustine's School at Springfield Terrace, near the water works, with Miss Percy May Tweedy as teacher. St. Antony's School, West Savannah, with Miss Eliza Rankin and Miss Lucile Brown as teachers. Besides those schools in Savannah, there is also a Catholic school at Augusta on Marbury street where two Franciscan Sisters teach; at Atlanta a grand new school called the Archbishop Ryan Memorial School on the North Boulevard; and at Macon St. Peter Claver School, Vineville, where the Sisters of Mercy teach. All the schools are a splendid proof of the great work of generosity and devotedness, which the Catholics are accomplishing in the State of Georgia for the education of the colored children in spite of much prejudice which still is existing among many non-Catholics. "Over Home" News, Beaufort, South Carolina. Miss Jestine Mitchell left Monday for Augusta, Ga., where she will enter Paine College. Master Johnny Singleton left on Tuesday of last week for Augusta. Ga., to attend Paine College. The many friends of Mr. Geo. Moody, Jr., will be glad to see him out again after several days down with the fever. Miss Geneva Fisher returned home on Sunday afternoon from Savannah, where she has been spending the summer. Miss Fisher will resume her studies at the public school. Mr. Summers, mail clerk on the C. & W. C. railroad between Port Royal and Augusta, spent Sunday in the city. The many friends of Mr. J. S. Blocker will be glad to see him out again after having been sick for several days. Mr. Matthew McCall who has been spending the past week in Savannah, returned on Monday. Mrs. Herinia Perry died on last Friday at noon. She was about 28 years of age, and was only sick for a short time. The funeral services were conducted by Rev. D. W. Bythewood on Saturday morning at the home on Duke street. She was laid to rest in the Sisters of Mercy cemetery. Pluto Company held its annual collation on Tuesday night of last [Continued on Park Four] Opening Services at New St. Philip's Church LAST SUNDAY VERY IMPRESSIVE THROUGH OUT Large Crowds Out Regardless of Inclement Weather—Over Nineteen Hundred Dollars Realized From Rally—Bishop Flipper and Other Distinguished Visitors Present. The opening services on last Sunday at the New St. Philip church, West Broad and Charles streets, were very impressively carried out. A large crowd was out at all of the services; that of the evening being particularly well attended. The inclement weather was the cause of hundreds being kept away from the services who for weeks had been making preparations to be present at the opening services in the new church. However, even in the face of the bad weather the attendance was very large and at night the auditorium was packed, many persons being compelled to be contented with standing room on account of the galleries not having heen completed. The morning and evening sermons were preached by Bishop J. S. Flipper who came to the city especially for these services. His discourses were full of animation and were thoroughly appreciated. There were many distinguished out of town ministers who were present at the services throughout the day and spoke at the platform service which was held in the afternoon. The reports from the rally which has been going on for some time were heard at the evening service. Much interest was manifested as the various reports were made. The total sum raised was something over nineteen hundred dollars. The church is still incomplete and it is estimated that it will be sixty days before all the work will be finished. Tenacity of Colored Promoters Rewarded. When the Standard Life Insurance Company of Atlanta, a colored company gets finally organized and ready to do business, it will likely have a record for economy of organization expenses never before equalled. The progress has been slow, largely because it has been a pioneer proposition and partially because banking accommodations have been less liberal to these promoters than they would have been on identically the same plans with white promoters. The same amount of work, directed with the same degree of intelligence that has characterized this development work, a plan not superior to this plan and with a field far less inviting and certainly with no greater possibilities, if put forth by white men would have met with prompt and complete success. These colored men are pioneers and in addition to overcoming the natural inertia, of an undertaking of this magnitude, they must overcome skepticism, misinformation and no information at all, not to mention open direct opposition. The men behind the company should succeed if for no other reason than that they deserve it and have what appears to be a safe, sound proposition, and are promoting it with a minimum of expense--The Southeastern Underwriter. The above excerpt is clipped from the Southeastern Underwriter a white insurance journal, and is of much value to the race, as it explains its advancement along economic lines. Under the leadership of H. E. Perry the Negroes of the South hard been struggling quite a while to establish an old line legal reserve insurance company under the name of the Standard Life. The effort of these progressive Negroes challenges the attention of the insurance world, and the entire country is waiting with the greatest interest for Mr. Perry's announcement that the company is ready for business. The company is getting along well and in a very short time it will qualify by placing $100,000 in securities with the insurance commissioners and will be ready for business The Standard Life promises to be the best paying proposition ever launched by Negro business men The Independent congratulates its promoters for its success, and thanks The Southeastern Underwriter for the attention and prom inence given this Negro enterprise. Atlantas Independent. SEABROOK'S UNDERTAKING ESTABLISHMENT Moves Into Its New Ten Theus- and Dollar Building The new building of Capt. E. Seabrook, northeast corner of Minis and West Broad streets, which has been in course of construction for about two months is now within but a few days of completion. The undertaking establishment, of which Capt. Seabrook is proprietor, began moving into the new structure on Wednesday and by the first of October the entire business will be found in the new quarters. The new building has been erected at an approximate cost of ten thousand dollars and is one of the finest in the city owned by a Negro. It is a red pressed brick structure, three stories high and occupies a space thirty-seven feet by one hundred. The front of the ground floor is occupied by the office, trimming room, embalming room and a chapel, while in the rear of this floor are stables for fifteen horses. On the second floor are the proprietor's apartments, consisting of seven rooms elegantly furnished, and in the rear a large carriage room. An elevator for carriage use extends from the first to the second floor. The third floor is divided into two beautiful lodge rooms, well lighted and well ventilated. B. M. C. Echoes. One of the most interesting columns in any newspaper is the one by the "Sage of the Potomac," published each week in The Washington Bee. The following excerpt from this trenchant writer is here annexed and it makes quite interesting reading: "Well, I see the colored Odd Fellows remain true to the name—the they are truly odd fellows—Last week they journeyed all the way down to Link Johnson's home, Atlanta, to hold a B. M. C., and just as they did over to Baltimore two years ago, broke up in a row. Slaughter, the little fighting bantam, threw out all the Ben Davis, Bill Houston and Link Johnson ballast that he had been carrying in his balloon, and aeroplanned down to Atlanta to go 'agin' his old cronies. The week before he left he didn't do a thing but burned his bridges behind him, made a thirteen inch gun out of the Odd Fellows Journal, and poured volley after volley into the Davis-Houston-Johnson breastworks. The funny thing about it, so I have been told in high secret circles, that they never figured that Slaughter would even get in the 100 to one shot class, But don't you know that little sawed-off and hammered down bunch of energy didn't do a thing but beat the bunch out. I have heard some funny things since the B. M. C. fizzled out. Our bon mot is that they are giving Link Johnson a mild dose of knockafrass because when he was in the chair he didn't run the meeting according to Hoyle. Ed. Morris, they tell me, was too smooth for all the Supreme Court judges, and just put them to sleep with fine mueuvering, while little old Slaughter, who was a sort of "despised Jew" to the machine bunch, just hopped about everywhere, and swaued out the gun every time Morris fired. A week ago it was odds on the Davis-Houston-Johnson combine with no takers. Now its odds on the Morris-Slaughter combine, with no takers. I saw Harry Cummings over in Baltimore this week, and Harry looked like the judge at Hillsville, Va., right after the Allen boys shot up the court—he was next door to non compos mentus, what ever that is. Harry, as Attorney-General, was supposed to be the great battling ram that was to hold the opposition in check with law. Harry, they tell me, is now figuring how to hedge. I haven't seen Link Johnson yet; but I heard a close friend of his say that Link, since his return, is like that historical boy who had nothing to say after he furnished his mother an opportunity to clean up something. Slaughter, and his man Friday—quiet, easy-going John Goins—have just been smiling to each other, back and forth, ever since their return, and every once in a while Slaughter says to Goins, John, didn't we skin 'em? "Sure did," answers John, "Come have one on me." Then when they have finished a delicious mint julep, Goins will say to Slaughter. NUMBER 2 Public Schools Open Tuesday CARDS OF ADMISSION WILL BE ISSUED MONDAY MORNING New School to Accommodate About Two Hundred and Fifty—To Have Only Primary Grades—Usual Demand For Seats The public schools of the city will open Tuesday morning with the usual stir and hustle of the little ones, who for nine months will make the streets of the city lively with their playful pranks as they go to and from school. Cards of admission will be issued on Monday morning from 9 to 1 p. m. The customary rush to get their children in school will of course be experienced by parents, with the usual number of disappointments, as the demand for admission this year will equal, if not surpass that of former years. While it is true that the opening of the Haven Home property on Henry street, west, as a public school will provide additional room for a limited number of children who wish to enter the first, second and third grades, yet the possibilities of getting admission into the grades above these are practically very slight. The new school, which will be composed of two first, two second grades and one third grade, will make provision for about two hundred and fifty children. The text books to be used are about the same as last year and, as in former years, the rule concerning vaccination will be rigidly enforced. Republican Candidate For Congress. Last week the Republican District Committee met in this city to reorganize and nominate a candidate for Congress. A subcommittee with Captain W. D. Armstrong as chairman, was appointed to select such a candidate. After looking carefully over the field, the committee decided to nominate Mr. E. J. Seymour, who is connected with the posse office. A strong letter was sent Mr. Seymour by Capt. Armstrong and it is understood that he will accept the nomination. In that event the regulars will inaugurate an active campaign throughout the district and rally the Republicans to active duty. Corner Stone Laying. The Corner stone of St. Mary's Primitive Baptist Church, Rev. S. T. Shephard pastor, near the Water Works on Duffy street, near Styles Avenue, will be laid tomorrow. The exercises will commence at 11:30 a.m. At 12 o'clock noon the sermons will be preached by Elders Walton and C. B. Bartley. The corner stone will be laid under the auspices of the Grand United Order of Archery The public is cordially invited to attend these services. "Say, Henry, didn't we skin em?" "Sure," responds Slaughter, "come take one on me." Ben Davis, they say, is writing a book, entitled "How Figures Can Lie," and Houston and Link Johnson, when they meet just look at each other in a sad, reflective sort of a way, and pathetically exclaim, in unison, in the language of Count Sebaskalahoff after the Jays had put the Moscow contingent out, "Ain't it h—l? They say they are going to call another meeting of the B, M.C. at the end of sixty days and race through the election of Ben Davis, and his cohorts, but I am betting Dr. Williston's speedometer against Dr. Cabiness' speed record, which is four miles in four hours, that that meeting will never be held, and if it does, the courts will decide the case. But mebbe Jim Needham ain't treating himself own ten seconds over the fizzle. The plank had been greased for Jim to walk, and he had started on his journey with all the calmness of the Duke'd Aubre when he went to the guillotine. If Henry Slaughter happens to receive a case of wet goods consigned to him-from Philadelphia without the name of the consignee, he can just be satisfied that it's from Jim Needham, in appreciation of his (Slaughter's) doing the desperate desmond act—snatching him from the cage containing the three fierce nubian lions—Davis, Houston and Johnson." . # ' ‘ ‘ .

Free entertainments are given to rural comuunities in some counties in Alabama as partiof a campalgn to induce the peopie tg stay on the land instead of abandonibg their farms tor city Ine. This information has been received by the United States bureau of education from E. M. Shackelford, prinelal of the state normal school at Troy, Pike county, Alabama, who is at the head of the movement, Mr. Shackelford writes: “In my opinion, the exodus of the younger genération from the country to the town is at present the most serous menace to our general welfare. Good roads, motor cars, tho télephone and rural mail delivery are improving rural conditions greatly, but rural co. cial life does not yet afford the op- portunities for the commerce of ideas that an active, reading, thinking pub- lie demands, Hence thé tendency to congregate In the canters of popula- tion, and hence this effort of ours to afford a few -social opportunities through a course of free entertaln- ments.” Tho entertainments consist mainly of lectures, “lantern shows,” and se: Jections on the Victrola. Some of the lectures are given at night, and some In the afternoon. Occasfonally dinner is provided et the school and an all- day seselon 1s held. While this movement was started by the Troy State Normal school, the co-operation of the Alabama state health and medical departments and the various state institutions bas been enlisted for supplying speakers, enter- tainment clubs and other attractions, Most of the entertainers give thelr services without cbarge, and trans- portation fs furnished by the owners of automobiles. Friends of the new movement anticipate that it will be a powerful factor wherever Introduced in adding to the pleasures of rural Mfe by furnishing additional oppor- tunities to the country folk for reere- ation, culture ana social Intercourse. Practical if Not Poetic. ‘W. D. Howells, at a luncheon at Kittery Point, said of a certain popu- lar novelist: “There is about as much poetry in ‘him as there-is In McMasters, “MeMasters, you know, was walk- ing.with a beautiful girl-in a wild New England wood. “‘What 1s your favorite lowes, Mr. McMasters?" the girl, pstwa, rey) ~2 “MeMasters hour} hs, / - then cleared his thro: a er OF “Well, I believe I like’ Jeff a wheat best’"—Washington Star ROAD EXPERTS NEEDED. A practical effort to bring the sup- ply of expert highway engineers to tha point where they will be numer us €nough to meet the, demand for their services is to be made at the American Road Congress, to be held on the Million-Dallar Pier, in Atlantic City, September 30 to October 5. At the present time, witli the people of the United States spending more than 200,000,000 a year for the improve. ment of highway) the demand for expert highway engineers exceeds the supply. There ts to be a conference of educational institutions at the American Road Congress, to be di tected by the Society for the Promo tion of Engineering Education, and through this conference efforts are to be made to induce the leading unl- versities to establish specific and practical courses for the instruction ‘of highway engineers, At the present time there are about £2 universities devoting some atten- tion to highway engineering. The In- struction in thls branch of engineer- ing, however, is, {n most cases, merely @ part of the general training of engi- neexs, so that therg will be a sufficient number of trained*men to handle the great problem that has been thrust upon the United States by the wide- spread agitation for a better system of public highways that will reduce the east of hauling crops and perinit shipments by farmers at all seasons of the year. Prof. Henry H Norris of Cornell university Is secretary of the Society for the Promotion of Encineering Edu- cation, which is composed of officials of the leading educational institu: ‘tions having engineering departments. Professor Norris has just sent letters to all the institutions which are rep- resented in their society asking them to aypeint delegates to represent them at the convention, which will be part of the American Road Congress at Adanue City Prof. Willlam.

CALLING WILD BIRDS Imitation That Is Not at All Hard to Achieve Given a Musical Ear With a Little Study the Substitute Will Be an Easy Matter—Naturalness First Requisite. In order to call birds with much success a good musical ear 15 certain ly needed; but any one with patience can lure birds near or bring from them an answer merely by whistling an {mitation of theif notes. The ob- server can call numbers of birds to him by sucking his finger or the back of hls hand. The sound produced is Uke that made by a young bird in distress. No other sound will so speedily attract birds, and their re. sponse is a touching evidence of the natural affections that they possess. Although this fs'’the best way (o bring many birds near, and bring them with dispatch, it has serious drawbacks. Those that come are ikely to be fearful and excited, their voices are querulous and their bear- ing unnatural.

Then she turned to another guest: “May I move your chair, madam? The sunlight Is very strong.” At this the guests were exceedingly interested and asked for more. “Imitate your papa, dear,” said one.

LONDON LORD MAYOR'S EXPENSES EXCEED SALARY To be lord mayor of London costs a lot of money, the New York Times correspondent | . writes.

Interest in the heavy pecuniary burden the lord mayor has to bear is revived through a motion pending in the city of London corporation in re- gurd to the question of the loid may* or's expenses “owing to altered cir- cumstances.” Since 1873, when the /matter of the lord mayor's salary was ast discussed officially, the expenses of the office have increased enormous- ly. : Probably none of the incumbents of the office in recent years has been able to defray the costs of the honor out of his salary, large as it is. It ts asserted that one lord mayer spent $150,000 In his year of service out of his own pocket, while the minimum expenditure is sald to be about $10, 000, Away back in 1774, thé year before the system of compensating the lord mayor through certain dues was abolished, John Wilkes recelred about $21,000 and spent more than $41,000. After Wilkes’ term the sal- ary for 60 years was $5,000 with some allowances, and later these included about $16,500 paid by the corporation for the expenses of the mansion house, the lord mayor's official residence. This system was in force until the present salary was granted. In addi- tion to what he now receives. the corporation spends from $30,000 to $40,000 a year on mansion house ex- penses. Those who have witnessed the lord mayor's show get an idea of one very heavy burden which the lord mayor had to bear in part. When the present Jord mayor assumed office, the “show” included a historical pa- geant with costumes that were worth a small fortune. Fashion's Dire Requirement.

Continuous war should be made on the cigarette smoking habit, especially among the small boys. Save the boys from the effects of the "coffin tacks." The Democratic party is a party of race prejudice, discrimination, jim crow cars, lynch law, etc. Just how any sane colored man can cast a vote for its candidate for President, is past finding out. Those of our citizens who are taking pride in improving their homes, etc., are to be commended. There is nothing, like having pleasant and comfortable home surroundings. They will assist greatly in keeping the boys and girls at home. and corner hangers owe to reign supreme on some of our streets and corners. A little more vigilance on the part of our guardians of the peace will do much toward ridding our community of the nuisance. Real estate activities continue to be a part of our people here. Hardly a week passes but that some valuable piece of property situated on some prominent thoroughfare passes into the hands of our people. It is an encouraging sign for any people when their property eccessions continue to multiply. In our community we have a number of men who for years have been earning lucrative salaries, and today they cannot make the show of men who earn any more than five or six dollars per week. These men are not deserving of the positions they occupy The Savannah Tribune, a weekly paper published by and for the colored people of the city, is an excellent paper and we recommend it to our people. We have read it every Saturday for the last four years and we are glad to state that The Tribune has always been a strong advocate of every good cause for the temporal and moral welfare of the colored race in this community; it has always given a fair and impartial tribute to the work accomplished by the Catholics in this city—St. Benedict's Messenger. The people of Alabama boast, and justly so, of the fact that during the past year not a lynching has taken place within the state. In the light of the past history of the state, this recent record is an enviable one. We doff our hats to the people of Alabama and especially the state officers for the success of their efforts to blot out the great lynching evil. What has been done in Alabama can be done in Georgia and other southern states. Let the state and county officers get busy and Judge Lynch's rule will be of short duration. We trust that our own state will follow the lead of her sister state and do likewise. The abrupt and unsatisfactory termination of the B. M. C., recently held in Atlanta, is much regretted by all well meaning and deep thinking members of the race. Prior to the meeting, the news was sent broadcast over the entire country that the Grand United Order of, Odd Fellows, one of the greatest Negro secret organizations in the world, was to convene in Atlanta in what would be the greatest meeting in its history. The eyes and ears of the entire country were turned toward Atlanta, being anxious as it were, to know of the progress of the great meeting of Negroes As per schedule, the monster parade of the order in which all of its various branches took part, was held and much to the credit of the order, the press of the city spoke in unstinted praise of the parade as being one of the largest and most representative ever seen on the streets of Atlanta. Those of us who love the race and glory it its achievements were just in the act of congratulating ourselves and the order on the success of its session when to our surprise the information reached us that amidst dissension and turmoil the meeting was suddenly adjourned. This is indeed to be regretted. At the same time we are at a loss for words of condemnation sufficiently strong for the leaders of the order for their failure to get together on common ground for the good of the order. The Negroes' inability for self government has been a terrible indictment against us for some time. Much of the opposition to us is builted on the belief that our distrust and lack of confidence in each other is so strong that it matters not how vital an issue may be. we cannot and will not get together in defense of each other even when it is for the common good of us all. It is hardly possible to conceive of a gathering of any large number of people in convention assembled where discussions, counter discussions and differences of opinion will not prevail. It is a wise gathering however that can patch up its differences in such a way that the will of the majority, rightly exercised, will become the accepted mandate of all. This, we regret to say, the Grand United Order of Odd Fellows failed to do. And in their failure the very title of the order becomes a misnomer. Sooner or later, our fraternal leaders must realize that bickerings and petty strife are not at any time conducive to the maintenance and growth of their charges. Neither will they add to the permanent strength and influence of those who bask in the sunshine of them. The world is beginning to have very little patience with those of us who live, and happily too., in an atmosphere of notoriety born of unseasoned and uncalled for opposition to any and all things for the common good. The requirement of the world today is the subjugation of self for the good of a cause. The sooner our fraternal leaders realize this, the better it will be for the race. The race has gained little by the recent session of the B. M. C. It has lost a great deal. It is decidedly up to the leaders of the great order, those upon whose shoulders the mantel of the great and illustrious Peter Ogden have fallen to make reparation for its recent mistakes. May this reparation be forthcoming and in a way satisfactory to all concerned. Waycross Dots. St. Paul Church held its regular services on Sunday. Rev. W. J.

LLOYD who departed this life Sept. 25, 1900. Far from this world is he, From strife, tumult and pain, From scenes where satan wages still His most successful war. The calm retreat, the silent shade, With prayer and praise agree; And seem by thy sweet bounty made For those who follow thee There like the nightingale he pours His solitary lays; Nor asks a witness of his song Nor thirsts for human praise. What thanks I owe thee and what love, A boundless, endless store Shall echo through the realms above When time shall be no more. His Mother, Clarissa Lloyd. W. H.

WHERE LOVE ISSENT Dexter Chose a Girl Who Didn't Know Beans. "It beats me," Grandmother Grey invariably remarked, whenever wedding bells disturbed the quiet atmosphere of Chasefield, "why Dexter Hanson doesn't marry. Half the young folks that get married round here haven't a cent to their names, but they seem as happy and cheerful as kings and queens. And Dexter has a fine farm all stocked ready for him, and his Pa and Ma just aching to move to the village. "He's good looking enough, the girls seem to like him, and he's been pestering after them ever since the first day he went to school. It beats me!" It "beat" many a pretty young country girl who secretly thought of Dexter's handsome face and easy manners, too, as well as many a designing mother who thought more about the farm that was his for the taking. "But you know," Mrs. Hanson said mildly, "I was not always as capable as I am now, Dexter. I had to learn by experience just like everyone else!" "You're the best girl I know of, at any rate," her handsome son always replied, and with that she was forced to be satisfied. Mrs. Hanson returned from the missionary meeting one early summer afternoon very much excited. "Father," she said, "I've taken a boarder for the summer—I hope you are not going to mind about it. I declare I spoke right out before I thought, and then I hated to go back on my word. The minister had a letter from a minister friend from the city saying that some nice girls from his church wished to come out here for the summer; working girls, you know, who haven't much money to spend, and who want to stay with a private family. "I picked out a teacher. Her name is Molly Prescott. I've always wanted a girl round the place you know, father," she added hesitatingly. "Of course you can do as you like, but it don't seem necessary for you to take in boarders, mother," answered Mr. Hanson, heartily. Dexter smiled over his mother's story. He smiled again when he was commissioned to meet the young teacher at the station. "Mother thinks she will try city girls on me for a change," he said with a laugh as he drove away. The girl on the platform looked white and timid. Her lovely dark eyes seemed to question him anxiously. "Would you like to drive?" he asked, as he helped her into the carriage. "Oh no!" She looked quite alarmed. "I am not accustomed to horses," she added apolgetically, "and this one seems so large and strong." Dexter gathered up the reins almost impatiently. "Mother will have a nice time of it looking after her all summer," he thought. And he said very little on the homeward drive. "Dexter," said his mother several weeks later, "I can't see what you dislike about Molly. She's the dearest girl I ever knew!" "I never cared over much for vines mother. I've always preferred something that could stand up by its own strength." "Whatever do you mean, Dexter Hanson? Molly was left alone when she was a little girl, and she educated herself and fought her own way in that dreadful, unfeeling city, until I wonder where her courage came from! "Yet she's afraid of cows and little green snakes," observed Dexter, teasingly. "Just as I'd be afraid on the city streets at night, because I am not accustomed to them. And Dexter, I wish you would not say so much about girls who can cook and sew and drive horses—she feels it, poor child. She has wanted to learn from me, but I tell her to keep out in the sunshine when she has a chance." "Of course I was only in fun, mother, but if she is too sensitive even to joke, I'll certainly, desist," he answered with a provoking smile. Still he was kinder to the girl in a patronizing sort of way, from which she seemed to shrink to his mother's protection. "Do you suppose you could get supper for Dexter and Mr. Brady tonight?" asked Mrs. Hanson one day after the early dinner. "Father and I have got to go to town and can't possibly get back. I'll leave everything ready, and show you where to find the things." "Oh. I shall be glad to do it for you, dear Mrs. Hanson," cried the girl, smiling in spite of the sinking of her heart. To stay alone without a person in sight—and to get supper for the young man who thought a girl ought to know how to cook! Molly never heard a word of what was being said to her until Mrs. Hanson lifted the cover of the kettle at the back of the stove. "You can put on these beans, Molly. They'll keep warm, and the men like them boiled down like this." Left to herself, Molly carefully locked every door, and cowered in the darkened kitchen. An hour dragged by, and then a step on the flagged walk outside seemed to cause her heart to turn a complete somersault. Peeping through the curtain she beheld the two ragged children who often came to see Mrs. Hanson. "Oh, come in," she cried, dragging them in joyously. If only she could keep them with her! Conversation dragged, but the children looked pinched and hungry. "Do you like warm beans?" she asked suddenly as they became uneasy. Their expression was enough. Molly dished beans lavishly, and spread big slices of bread and butter. Never had she so much enjoyed seeing anyone eat! But when they departed, Molly looked at the kettle in distress. Where was the men's supper? "I'll look in the pantry," she cried at last with a happy thought. "I must not let Dexter Hanson laugh at me!" There was a big bowl of late roses in the center of the supper table, and Dexter had to own to himself that he liked the innovation. He had to own too, that the girl in the white frock, with the rose-flush in her cheeks, make a fascinating picture as she poured the tea. He noted the nervous flutter of her pretty fingers, and his heart smote him. "Mr. Brady was in a hurry to get home, so he did not stop for supper," he explained, helping himself generously to the tempting beans. Molly, glancing at him, noted the astonished look when he placed some of the beans in his mouth. She hastily tasted her own; in the tender lusciousness, her teeth encountered one—two—hard, unresisting objects. The blood pulsed in her cheeks, and she pressed her hands over her eyes, breaking into nervous sobs. Dexter rose quickly. It was very annoying to have a woman cry! Still he went hastily round the table and put his hand gently on her shoulder. "Don't feel so badly," he murmured awkwardly, looking down at her. The soft waves of her hair took on unmistakable charms seen so alluringly near. Choking back her sobs, the girl rose hurriedly. "Molly, Molly," he said, folding her suddenly in his arms. "Tell me about it—dear!" To his joy, the unexpected tenderness of his manner broke down her reserve and she sobbed softly—it justified his comforting her. It was certainly very satisfying to feel her soft hair beneath his lips, her tender cheek pressed against his shoulder. "Those poor Fraley children came," she whispered, "and they looked so hungry that I gave them most of our supper. Then I thought I would put in more beans—I did not know it took so long for beans to cook!" "I did not know it myself, dear," he declared solemnly. "And I wanted to keep the children because—Dexter, I was afraid here, all alone! I know it seems silly to you, but I'm used to living where I can call the police at any moment, and it seems so dreadful not to be able to see anyone at all!" "Of course it does, Molly. I do not wonder you are afraid, but you'll get accustomed to it. "Sweetheart, I can't let you go back to the city. Will you stay here—with me?" "But I cannot cook," murmured Miss Prescott, meekly. "Mother will love to teach you." "And I am afraid of cows—and of those great, high-headed horses." "You are not afraid with me dear, and you have no need to go near them alone." "But no sensible farmer man would want such a wife—I'm not nearly as smart as your mother." "Don't tell her so, Molly. She thinks you are the bravest girl in the world." "What will your friends think to know you have chosen a girl who doesn't know—beans?" "Molly," he cried, kissing her, "they will never know it!"

The Metropolitan museum of New York city received out of the blue sky, as it were, and without warning, a few months ago a bundle of securities aggregating about a million dollars, the income of which was not to be used the benefit of the museum according to the judgment of the trustees without a single condition. The donor was one of New York's quiet, little known Croesuses—or Croesi, if that sounds any better. Upon recovering their breath the trustees conferred one with another as to how they should show their appreciation of this remarkable munificence. No better way occurring to anybody, they elected him a member of the board. He accepted and, arriving late at his first meeting, took a seat in a quiet corner and listened to proceedings with intelligent interest, but without comment of his own. At the close of proceedings, as the trustees were about to separate and go their different ways, the donor of a million plucked one of them by the sleeve and drew him aside. "Say," he said, glancing nervously around to make sure that he was not overheard, "I had to pay 25 cents to get into the museum today." 'GOOD THING' REMOVED "GRAND YOUNG BOOB" OF BROADWAY PASSES AWAY. Death of Irving W. Childs, Who Spent Several Fortunes on the "Great White Way," Brings Real Sorrow to Many. New York.—There is real sorrow in the night living colony of Broadway for the death of Irving W. Childs, who died the other day at the age of 26. It is not the grief which Broadway feels when bankruptcy or parental intervention, or even death, takes away a "good thing." Childs would have been beloved on Broadway if he had not inherited $700,000 from his millionaire father, William Henry Harrison Childs of Brooklyn, and even had he not thrown the money away with both hands. With the age of a man and his great fortune, he combined a clownish youthfulness, a gay recklessness, a baby-like faith in adventure, mystery and romance and an Aladdin-like luck which gave Broadway a good healthy laugh every time he appeared on the faded, sensation-weary street. Young Childs died of pneumonia. He fell an easy prey to the disease because his search for pleasure and excitement had completely exhausted his nerves and vitality. Broadway called Childs—more in affection than in ridicule—the "Grand Young Roob." By which Broadway meant that anybody could get money from him at any time and have fun in doing it. The youth had a great ambition to be a detective. When the benevolent sheriff, Harburger, gave innocent pleasure to many imaginative millionaires by appointing them his deputies, Childs was one of the very first in the line of applicants. As soon as he was appointed he had a gold badge studded with diamonds made at Tiffany's and a pair of solid gold handcuffs. The outfit cost him $2,400 and he displayed it on the slightest excuse. Policemen and detectives, of whom he knew scores, made harmless spending money by permitting him to make arrests for them, after they had marked down men for whom they had warrants. Childs would pay from $100 to $500 any moment for the privilege of laying his hand on a criminal's shoulder and saying: "I arrest you in the name of the state of New York," snapping the gold handcuffs over his prisoner's wrists. When no criminal was available it was necessary to resort to indirection by introducing him to somebody as "Mr. Irving Childs, formerly of Scotland Yard and one of our keenest amateur detectives—does stunts that make Sherlock Holmes look like a flour-flusher." The new, made acquaintance could always borrow all the money Childs had about him and he seldom started the evening with less than $500. His spendthrift ways would long ago have broken him had it not been for his luck in speculation. He would bull or bear the stock market in brokers' offices in the uptown hotels with spectacular success. Wall street was too far downtown for him to go to the market, he used to say, so he made it come to him; and it did. He usually determined his trades by the toss of a coin. Another under-surface indication of a system behind Childs' playfulness was his refusal to sign checks except inside the doors of a bank. He had running accounts at a hundred hotels and restaurants. "Put my name where fifty people would have a chance to study my signature and forge it," he said. "and me a detective! Not on your life!" So he would have a waiter or a clerk sign his name for him; everybody knew him and knew he was responsible for his debts. A woman wearing handsome furs could borrow any amount of money from Childs on two minutes' acquaintance. This idiosyncracy more than once caused speculative friends to dress a waitress or a chorus girl in hired furs and introduce her to the young man in order to share with her the price of a champagne dinner. The "Grand Young Boob" favorite indoor sport was giving chop suey contests. He would frequently take six, ten or all the members of a chorus to a Chinese restaurant and give a prize of $100 to the damsel who stowed away the greatest quantity of the stuff. Childs was separtaed from his wife, who was Gertrude Westfall of Brooklyn. They have one child. Childs eloped with his wife, although there was no opposition to their marriage. Recently after she obtained a legal separation he won her back, but lost her again when he drifted into his old ways. Wives Sold In Hungary. Vienna.—Judging from a story coming from Szinervaralja, wives are still bought and sold in Hungary. A house painter there named Marton sold his wife to a comrade for $100. After the contract for the sale had been duly signed the three signatory parties adjourned to a restaurant, where they enjoyed a festive repast costing half as much as the selling price of the wife. After the feast the woman went to the home of her new husband. Hillsdale, N. J.-Albert Rawson, one of the famous Rawson twins, grandchildren of the note Laura Keen, the English actress, is now the father of twins, both boys.

Are you remembering that?—Ashler. “Remember, then, 1 beseech you, that a single intemperate Mason is enough to ruin, in the eyes of many, the character of the whole order. A single profane Mason is enough to blast the reputation of our- principles; and shall we not, forthe sake of the brethren as well as ourselves, take heed to our ways? Do we love Masonry? Let us prove the sincerity of our love, by doing what we profess to do; that is following the guidance of the creat light.”"—Rev. Benjamin Allen, 1827. | The wisdom of Masonry is seen in its great teaching, in its great belief in the supremacy of the spiritual and the moral; for the Order is not an order belieying in atheism or annihilation. It recognizes God as father of all. It looks forward into the future life. It assumes that virture is the one. thing pre-eminent in the world’s history, around which the world/s battles have been fought and towards which the world is struggling onward, if pessible to realize and to attain thereunto.— Rev. George C. Lorimer, D. D. From the commencement of the world, we may trace the foundation_of Freemasonry. When the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters; when the great Jehovah ordained the creation of the world; when the sun first rose to greet with its beams the morning, and the august command was uttered: “Let-there be lighg”” the lips of Diety spoke Masonry into existence and it mustlive forevermore—for truth is eternal, and the principles of truth are the foundation of Masonry. There is something about great pros- perity which makes us hard. There is Something about winning our way that makes us think a Brother who loves must be at fault. The Masonic brother- hood teaches us that in our own needy and barefoot condition—not waiting until we can build hospitals or orphan- ge asylums, not waiting until we cam do something Jarge and great—but each quickened by the sense of his own ‘need, we are to be ever ready to aid a Brother in need. That is the first point of Masonic brotherhood. Iam sure a firm adherence to both letter and spirit of the law will, in the end, best promete the interest,of our institution. Especially is this the case in admiting candidates. Too great cir cumspection cannot be exercised in this respect. It is better that 2 few good men‘fail to gaiu admittance, than to re ceive one unworthy candidate. A long roll of members is not always the best guarantee of a successful lodge; and if numbers are desired, a rigid enforce- ment of the rules will soon lead good men to seek our association. We want the fraternity to grow, but it must bea growth in usefulness, in good work, in strong character.—Selected. | OUR MOTTO: First Class Material and Workmanship LET US DO YOUR __cocsm -: ie s .
